Miss Gertrude Wahl, who has unerringly guided our destinies during our four years in G. H S., we gratefully express our appreciation. Crimson Salutatory Greetings, friends! Welcome to our program! It was through your co-opera- tion as parents, teachers, friends, and classmates that we have, during the past four years, laid the foundations of our futures. The time has come when these achieve- ments will be tested. Will they stand the trial? A great deal of our success will depend upon the attitude that you take toward us. ou are now showing your interest in us by your presence. As we shall soon be one among you, is it not we who should be welcomed ? In return we, the members of the Class of ' 28, bid you share our short exercise, which, ere long, will be a memory that we hope will not fade, but ever grow fonder with the passing of Time. Velma Cripe. President ' s Address As our high school days are coming to a close, and we are about to leave Cj. H. S. forever, the Class of 1928 has a sincere feeling of indebtedness to the teachers, who ha e so efficiently taught us these four happy years, and to the members of the School Board, who have provided for us such excellent facilities for securing an education. Their co-operation has been greatly appreciated by this graduating class. From our hearts we wish to thank our parents for granting us the opportunity of better fitting oursehes for life ' :; work. Our parents, for t el e years, have guided us through ;:chool with their motherly and fatherly advice, never getting discouraged with us, always helping us no matter how great the odds. When our time comes to pro e our worth in the world, we only hope that we can make our fathers and our mothers proud to own us, and to make them feel that their luitiring efforts have not been m am. From now on, whether we ' ll be a success or a failure will depend upon our efforts alone. Are we going to disappoint those interested in us? Dale Peffley. Poem (With apologies to Edgar Allan Poe) On the stage of life uncertain there ' s the raising of the curtain On our lives — as was never raised before ; So that now, with the beating of our hearts, we are repeating, What portals will now open for us eagerly to explore? We pray that (jod be with us, for we shall need him sore: We a ' -k this, and one thing more. May our hearts grow- stronger ; may we hesitate no longer To search for truth as the Grail was sought in days of yore ; May we ardently seek the morrow, hoping that in joy or sorrow It will find us a little better than we were the day before — Just a little richer in the treasure of good deeds that we can store: We ask this, and nothing more. Alice Gerig. Page Twentv or 1926 Class Prophecy [. Thunder is heard in the distance, gradually growing louder; there is j a flash of lightning, then sudden silence. A voice from the clouds speaks. J Harken ye Be not afraid, for it is the voice of the man of dreams that speaketh. I have come from my home on yonder high mountain to tell you of a vision — aye. i wonderful vision. As I sat in my doorway yestereve gazing down the mountain, pondering deeply upon the afifairs of the world, I saw an outline of tall spires and skyscrapers :!ppear before me. I became greatly interested, and lo! a city came to my view, and I found myse on one of the main streets. It seemed to be the morning of a clear, spring day. As I approached a large ofHce building I saw Ruth Xaffziger, Mary Rozman. Hazel Carter, Ruth Muth, Joan Huff, Catherine Cole, Ruth Neterer, Bonieta Bech- tel. Ruby Hamilton, Genevieve Norris, and Marie Long. These girls were chattermg about their work as stenographers. Walking farther down the street, my eye was attracted to this sign in unique lettering: Ultra Fashionable Shoe Shoppe. Carlyle Rensberger, Manager. Beside it was the exclusive clothes shop of Leon Summy. As I was passing, Mr. Summ - him- self and Irene Berkey, his pri ate secretary, emerged from the building. As 1 passed nn, I met a small boy. Gerald Miller, the newspaper editor ' s son, celling papers. I bought one, and found on the first page an article by William Bradford, and a smaller one by James Donovan — two of the best journalists of the da -. On the radio page I discovered that Ruby Wolfe and Enid Miller were to broadcast a pipe organ recital that evening. In the sports section I read about Clare Garber, head basketball coach at Purdue, and ALic Diepenbos, major coach of V ale. Considerable mention was given also to Amos ' ontz, the famous all-American quarterback. As it was Hearing the noon hour. I ate my lunch at Frank Ridenoure ' s cafe ; I, then, summoned a taxi which took me to the public library. Upon my word, if it wasn ' t Burdette Firestone dri ing the taxi ! As I entered, I saw Catherine Stouder and Lucile Cripe, librarians, sorting books. In the reading room as I was looking at the pictorial section of a paper from the east, the face of Alice Gerig arrested my attention. The explanation below stated that she was now assistant librarian in the Congressional Library at Vashington, D. C. Finishing the paper, I glanced o er some of the latest books that had been published, and among the authors I noted were: Lester ' oder, A Modern Farm ; Bernetha Hoke, Anthology of Modern Verse ; George Weybright, The Science of Keeping Bees. As I glanced from the book rack, I saw Robert Bullock and Robert Murchie, the famous defense lawyers, rnter the reading room together. Thinking that I had absorbed enough reading material for the day and feeling that I needed some physical exercise, I decided to walk vo my hotel. In the residential district I passed the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Lockwood — Mrs. Lockwood being formerly Lillian Snyder — and also the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Smith. Mrs. Smith was formerly Hattie Lea. In the lobb ' of my hotel, I chanced to meet Everett Penrose, the famous globe trotter. Besides telling me of his adventures in foreign countries, he related that while in South America he saw Herbert Reith and Bernard Paine, engineers of a great irrigation dam then being constructed. Both were happily married and their families Twent -cine Crimson were with them at the time. On the ship returning from South America, he learned that Leonard Yoder was a sailor on that ship. Just before I dined, Margaret Bullock, accompanied by her travelling companion, Annis Moser, came into the lobby. Miss Bullock told me of her engagement to the Duke of Salisbury, who had recently arrived from Europe. After dinner, the owner of the hotel, Florence Kluckhuhn, for whom it had been named, came to chat with me. She told me of a good picture that was being i.hown in the theater a few blocks away, owned by Robert McDougall. The film was Merle Hartzler ' s famous production, We ' re on the Railroad Now, starring Mark Det- weiler and Robert Bender. As I had nothing planned for the evening I took in the show, which certainly was a scream. As I was returning to my hotel, a throng of people came toward me. What is this all about? I asked a small boy. Oh, dey haf been listenin ' to dat stump orator. Dale Peffley. He ' s on some kind of a campaign or sumthin ' . Tomorrow night deys goin ' to haf Pauline Reeves, de famous woman suffragette, and her mainstay, Velma Cripe, give speeches. I finally succeeded in pushing my way out of the surging mob and came safely to my lodging place where I retired immediately to my room. The next morning I awoke early, but alack and alas! I found my limbs were aching terribly ; so in desperation I summoned the great osteopath, Paul Butts. He arrived soon with a special nurse, Anna Amsbaugh, to treat my ailment and in less than half an hour I felt as well as ever. I had a big day ahead of me so I needed all my :trength. Vhen I had finished my breakfast 1 went to a bank to draw out some money. The first cage was occupied by Clark Croop. Just before I left I looked at my watch and sa ' that it had stopped. I took it across the street to the jewelry store cwncd by Harold Fairchild. At a case, buying diamonds, was the society leader, Marie Yoder, with her most intimate friend, Katherine Dierdorff. While waiting for my watch I noticed a man, purchasing a scholarship emblem. Vhen he turned to leave, 1 saw it was Fr ancis Koeriier. He invited me to the Learnalot High School of which he was principal. After I had secured my watch we started for the school. It was an inormous building, covering twenty-two acres. It had been constructed by Lawrence Siden- bender, and his assistants, Joe Reichard and (leorge Snoke. Fay Schrock had done all the interior decorating. Lighting fixtures were purchased from Franklin Thomas ' s electrical shop. I went to the office and talked with Mr. Koerner about the school and his work. Romaine Brumbaugh and Leta Phillips were in the office doing lec- retarial work. Charles Noble, Junior, was in the office to obtain an excuse. However, the principal saw fit only to give him a pink slip, saying in an aside to me, Like father, like : on ! I saw these names on the faculty list: Harold Rieth, professor of the art; Hazel Beckner, instructor of mathematics; Mary (jetz, ph ' sical training teacher; Christine Blosser, school nurse; Lillian Schrock, instructor of home economics; Elizabeth White- head, dean of girls; Geraldine Miller, Latin instructor; and Olga Buerstrom, dramatic coach. In the corridor I saw Robert Bloss, the renowned legal adviser of Chicago, who had come to give a talk to one of his social science classes. It was then time for lunch so I stopped at the school cafeteria. Here I met Vir- ginia Stuart and Frances Hazel, who had been attending college abroad. They were going on a drive to the next town and asked me to accompany them. To this I assented readily, and we were soon on the road. Presently we came to a huge chicken Page Twentv-T v(i or 1926 farm, and on the entrance gate I noticed this: Kenneth and Lowell Schadt, Dealers in Fine and Superfine Poultry. Farther on we passed the estates of Claude Shank and Marion Shelly, respectively. In one of the fields was a man, diligently working with some small instruments. My curiosity was aroused, and I asked my friends about it. They told me it was Ray Gardner, who was a chemist from the town where we were going, and that he was analyzing soil. C n the other side of the road was Charles Miller ' s blacksmith shop. In a field nearby Was a barnlot and a cowboy on a bronco, practicing the art of breaking a lively colt. He was none other tlian ( rville Ross, from the Cireat West. The car was diminishing its speed and I could see a dim outline of the town ahead of us. We entered a driveway and stopped before a large structure. What it was I could not imagine but I soon found out. The girls told me it was Agnes Veaver ' s orphanage; and sure enough, there came Miss Weaver and her privte tecre- tary, Ethel Lehman, down the steps to greet us. We were shown through the xhool in which Ellenor Parker, Anna Clason, and Christine Carter had charge of the kindergarten department. Madeline Copenhaver and Hazel Lantz were teaching the jirimary r rades. It ' as only a mile into town and we made that in a few minutes. As the car needed a new spark plug we stopped at Alvin W arstler ' s Service Station to get one. Just as we left we heard a terrible noise above, and behold! an airplane was looping the loop above the hotel. Harold Englarth, the mayor of the city, who was watching it, told us that it was the stunt flier, Joe Vallance, performing. At this point I took leave from my friends and decided I would walk up into the foothills for a rest, for in the two days I had seen all the graduates of Cjoshen High School in 1928. I was beginning to feel the reaction from the excitement of meeting them so unexpectedly, t n the mountain a storm broke out of a clear : ky. The rain fell in torrents and the thunder seemed to rock the very earth. But it soon passed away and the sun shown forth in all its splendor. Ah, my friends, it has taken time, time, time! These golden moments I have been using to talk to you are gone — gone forever; they cannot be recalled. Even so, I have told of my vision, and I must be getting back to my home on yonder high mountain before the night overtakes me. My blessing all of you take with you. Fare ell! Agnes Vea er. Oration The Attainmtnt of Success The purpose of every modern educational institution is to plant, cultivate, and push forward those seeds of ambition which may result in success. L nless jomewhere along the line ;uch an endeavor is made, the next generation will be lacking in ambition and thoLX qualities which are the parents of success. Throughout the Gchool life of every individual, the acquaintances which he makes, and the habits he forms are vital to his future. In view of this fact, looking over the present graduating class we cannot escape the conclusion that among their charac- teristics is that ambition which will, if ftirther fostered, rei ult in none other than permanent success. One of the most dependable methods of attaining success is to use time to the greatest advantage. Success and fame are not gained over night but rather by steady, Page Twenty-Three Tf)e Crimson earnest, iiiui muiring ctiort in whatever the task may be. If as much thought anil consideration are given to the work of a minute as to the work of a da -, a great deal more can be accomph ' shed in the one thousand four hundred and forty minutes of each day. Kipling appreciated the value of a minute when he said : If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds worth of distance run. Yours is the earth and everything that ' s in it And — which is more — you ' ll be a man my son ! Each day every one of us has twenty-four hours placed to our account in the bank of time. What do we do with them ? We draw checks on them. Some of these are large and others small. But do we always use each of these to the best advantage? If we do, we are sure to meet with success. If not, failure often stares us in the face. We can ' t play fair with an hour after it is gone but we can be square with those ihat are here and those that follow. If we are defeated it takes courage to attack the Jie.xt problem with i reater determination, yet it is the person who is brave, and who maintains as his motto, If at first you don ' t succeed, try, try again, that will attain success sooner or later. A mistake in one project does not spell ultimate failure. On the contrary if we profit by our errors, they will aid us in reaching our goal. Dr. Frank Crane once said : Success is what is left after many failures. This should instill in us the desire to gain knowledge through our failures as well as through our achievements. For the past four years we have been in the plastic stage of developme it. We have formed many habits — those which will, in after years, pay us large dividends, or those which will bankrupt us. If we have gone through school with an aggressi ' e, enthusiastic attitude we now possess some of the finest attributes to success. If we have formed such habits as self-control, dependability, honesty, honor, and courage, they will act as the strongest assistance in our life work. On the other hand, if we have cultivated the attitude of carelessness, dishonesty, instability, and laziness, we shall be compelled to pass through a period of apprenticeship, thus postponing ihe attainment of success. This, our institution of learning, is held responsible for de eloping within us those admirable traits. The environment has been :,uited to our needs, and the oppor- tunities have been many, but the results obtained depend upon each individual nudent. Some will take the proper attitude, that of accepting these advantages and making the most out of them, while others prefer to find fault and destroy rather than to create. It may seem that we have set before us many hard and fast rules which amount to nothing; nevertheless if we obey ther.i carefully we will, in the ;nd, find ourselves the winner. Chauncy M. Depew, when asked the secret to success, answered : There is no secret to it. It is just dig, dig, dig. Since s iccess is no respecter of persons or pro- fessions, it may be gained by anyone who is willing to pay the price. Success or victory has been obtained by our fore-fathers because they paid the price, because they entered into their task wholeheartedl ' and forgot themselves in fighting for what they believed to be their ultimate goal. Just as each of these has fought and won, each of us can attain success in our lives. Pauline Reeves. Twent ' -four or 1926 Class Grumble Leon. Well, my gosh! If ainbody can give a reason why a fellow should gi e a speech like that, let him be hanged at sunrise. Charles and William. Right! Leon. Come on, fellows, let ' s go out and enlighten the outsiders on this insti- tution of learning. Charles. Well, we ' re here now. Look upon the reason wh the school is :i success. A-L-T-H-O-U-G-H— William. We haven ' t been able to get rid of these pink slips. Leon. Heck, yes! Why, that guy doesn ' t appreciate a good line. I ' ve i oiie in the death-cell for the past four years, and I ' m telling you. I have a good one all fixed up and what does he do? Listens to hear it and then says, You ' re after a slip, I suppose. He then reaches for a pink already addressed to me. Charles. You ' re right, Lee. I get my mail there every morning, also. William. Hey, you guys are always crabbing. Why don ' t you blow down. But since you ' re so full of ideas, can you tell me what ' s the good derived from L ' ' s ? Charles. Yes, one of the things that gets under my skin is the U system that is carried on in this shack. The only thing we do is to wish for the best. Leon. You ' d think they were giving lessons in the correct manner for the I think we do it quite Well, the thresholds of their lairs. young men to walk through the corridor. Personally, William. These lynx-eyed watchdogs stand at waiting for chances to do a few kind acts. Leon, aw! The murdering kind! Charles. Amen ! William. Why, anybody ought to know that ou should be allowed to con erse peacefully in any study hall. Charles. aw ! How far do you get with stuff? Leon. You sure hit it. Chuck. You attempt to give a fellow prisojier a pleasant good morning and what happens? You get it about half said, when some faculty member gum-shoes around, claiming all rights of talking. Villiam. Sure, the student that wants to get along should always be olanip- mouthed. Leon. Sure, try that and fail ; you can ' t do that over fifteen minutes, or ' .ou are accused of sleeping, the privilege given exclusively to the faculty. Charles. Well, you know why I got so many of the little, red marks. They never could understand me. Try as I might they always could find some charge ■«! which to make me take my finals. But I always fooled them. They never flunked me on that account. ViIliam. The only redeeming feature that the Alma Mater has is the athletic teams. Although the games bring in a young fortune each year to the treasury de- partment and have made our school the small school with the great athletic reputa- tion, certain members of our faculty fail to appreciate their efforts enough to decline from burdening the athletes with the dreaded U ' s . Leon. That is one of the most sensible things I e er heard you mention. Bill. And I sincerely hope that these plain and fancy U givers will do their part. Charles. Well, if you aren ' t the old philosopher! Eh, Pete? T ventv-fi e %e Crim50n William. The school colors are Crimson and White and should be sacred in the minds of both the students and facult ' , and not used for so many different purposes. Leon. In my mind there are three ways the Crimson is misused: unexcused slips, L ' s , and flunk cards. And the results of these are beautifully mounted on the misused white, the color of the grade card. Charles. What good is this grumbling doing us anyway? Let ' s cut it out. William. Practice what you preach, Charley; but who ' s having a good time at this old party? I didn ' t even like what they had to eat, and besides that I had a date, and she wasn ' t hungry. Leon. Well, I didn ' t think this party was so bad. We, at least, got a ride out. Charles. Well, whose horse ou going to ride back? William. Do you remember what Mr. (jerig ' s boy friend, Aristotle, used to say? Leon. Sure, you mean: All things that men care for they remember. Charles. Well, you haven ' t forgotten there are three seats waiting for us back here. All. AVell, that ' s at least something we get for nothing. Let ' j take them.

Paidine. Well, we have all heard this many times. It is supposed that some place in this vast mountain r ange there exists a fairy grotto. Note. Well, what ' s that? Paidine. A cavern like apartment. To continue — from this abode Father Time, aided b - two little sprites, is thought to control the time of the world. This is accom- plished with the help of two huge clocks, an hour glass, and a calendar. Didn ' t the tradition say that the clocks were ound only once a year on the day that a class gathers for the last time at Commencement? [All nod] Velma. In this place anything might happen. Elizabeth. Oh, let ' s rest and then join the other seniors. It surely is nearly dinner time. V irginia. Oh, no! Didn ' t we just see dawn passing down the path. Nate. We have already wasted too much time. As for me, I am anxious to find Father Time and help wind those clocks. Pauline. So am I ! Remember, we seniors have been div ided into several groups and sent in various directions to hunt the same place. If we get there first we ' ll have the honor of giving the bugle call to summon the remainder of the class. Velma. Well, let ' s go up to that peak. I believe there is a surprise waiting for us there. It may be the fairy grotto! Elizabeth. All right. Let ' s go. Virginia. Oh! How useless! (Exit) Page Twenty-Six _.=-: 22 22 oClOZQ (Curtains open) Virginia. I told you it was useless to rush to the top of that peak and get all tired and hot. Now, for a change, let me have ny way ! Let ' s sit down on ihese stones and study this map. Elizabeth. It says that we should go up there — and then o er there, and then down here. Pauline. Well, that ' s what we did and we didn ' t find anything. Clock. Nevermore! Nevermore! Nevermore! Nate. What ' s that? (Reads) Made in G. H. S. in 1928. Elizabeth. (Walks toward the other clock): There ' s another one! Im- ported 1938 . Velma. Here is an hour glass. Vhy it ' s about time to turn it over — all the sand has sifted down. Pauline. I ' ll bet this is the place. Virginia. I told you — Elizabeth. Say, see how slowly these pendulums are swinging: ' I believe it ' s about the hour for Father Time to return — if this is his favorite haunt. Nate. I think he ' d be angry to find us here. Let ' s hide and wait. (All hide in silence. Father Time enters, turns hour glass, starts away, then looks at the calendar) Pauline. Begging your pardon, sir, I hope we ' re not intruding. Hut ou see we were, truthfully speaking, looking for Father Time. Ha e we found him? Can you be he? ( Father Time nods ) Elizabeth. We came to remind you that this year another class is graduating; and that this being the day to wind our clocks, we came to offer our assistance and if possible to ask a favor. Velma. The clocks ! They go more slowly and more slo ly. world will come to a standstill. (Father Time moves toward the clocks) Nate. Stop, sir. Please may I wind the clocks for you ? Father Time. It is unusual for this duty to be performed by any hand but mine; yet under the circiunstances I herewith place the keys in your hand. .Always wind this one first, and the future one next. Elizabeth. It is indeed commendable that the time of the world should be so well regulated. We are indebted to you. Vould ou grant us a portion of your time in which to present a petition ? (Father Time nods) Elizabeth. We, the Class of ' 28, about to pass out of existence, beg that you prolong our years in G. H. S. in order that we may longer enjoy the opportunities afforded by this institution of learning. Father Time. The clocks have already been wound. However, there is one concession which I am at liberty to grant, and that is to extend an invitation to your class to return here next year for an alumni reunion. But first I must know what your class has done to deserve such a privilege. Virginia. We have nothing but a record of our activities which we have pre- pared to give at the last gathering of our class this evening at the foot of this mountain.

When, in 1924, we entered G. H. S. we found to om- satisfaction vhat Miss Wahl had been chosen as our class sponsor. Pauline. We immediately elected Mr. Robert Weaver to assist Miss V ■lhl in supervising our activities. Elizabeth. As student leaders we chose Herbert Reith, president ; Dale Pefifley, vice-president; AVilliam Bradford, secretary; Charles Noble, treasurer; Olen Hart and Donald (lill, rergeants-at-arms. X ' irginia. Under their direction our freshman year was very successful, ending with a big party in the gym in the form of a track meet. Nate. Remember, we had four teams — the Simps, Hicks, Imps, and Runts. Pauline. Yes, I remember. I was a member of the Runts; but it was tlie Hicks, captained by Elizabeth Whitehead, who won the loving cup for high score in the contest. V ' elma. And such a loving cup! A battered, aluminum, drink ing mug, whicli they regarded as a long-lost treasure. Virginia. But remember this: they weren ' t the only ones who got something at that party. The next week, we all had the measles and school was closed for the month of April because of a rcarlet fever epidemic. Elizabeth. Regardlers of the haughty stares and sarcastic remarks of the upper- classmen, we held our place on the honor roll and athletic field. Velma. In our second year when we were still young and inexperienced, Ir. Weaver found it necessary to leave. Mr. Schenck readily ada|ited himself to his re;ponsibility as sponsor. Elizabeth. Thirteen of our boys v on numerals for class football, and the girls organized a basketball team. Pauline. We had Nate Warstler, Donald Gill and Dale Peffley on the varsity football i:eam too. And they sure made a Hash. Nate. These bright lights were discovered and made luminous by the co-0|iera- tion of the cLt ' s inembers and their different officers; namely, president, Julian Guil- liom ; vice-president. Dale Peffley; secretary, [anet Riley; treasurer, ' illiam Brad- ford ; rergeants-at-arms, Mary Cjetz and Don Gill. Virginia. In the beginning of our third year, being no longer underclassmen, we drew the attention of all by our ability in various fields. Our first exhbitioii of this charnctenrtic was the proud display of our class emblems — pins 3r rings, as we preferred. Nate. We then put on the first junior play ever to be given at (j. H. S., : ub- stituting it for the trrditional junior carnival of former years. This was A Friend Indeed, directed ly Mirs Edna Agar and presented by the following cast: Merle Peffley, Gerald Miller, Francis Koerner, Frank Ridenoure, Olga Buerstrom, George Snoke, Ellen.or Parker, Julian Guilliom, Edgar Baxter, and Bernetha Hoke. Velma. The daily routir.e of school work •as interrupted by the Kid Partv on February 8. The children obeyed ver}- well although the fond parents were at home. Dainty Valentine refreshments were served. Pauline. Our next project vas the election of the Crimson staff in April. The results were: editor, Elizabeth Whitehead; associates, Robert Bloss and Virginia Stuart; turiness manager, Frank Ridenoure; assistants, Cieorge Snoke and Herbert Twenty-eight or 1926 Reith ; departments — Dale Peffle , Irene Berkey, Ellenor Parker, Joan Huff, Leta Phillips, Hazel Lantz, Bernetha Hoke, and V ' elnia Cripe. These people met several times and formed definite plans to work on during the summer. Elizabeth. Oh, the officers! They have been forgotten so far. ' oii remember we had a change that year: President, Alvin Warstler ; vice-president, Frank Ride- noure ; secretary, Enid Mishler ; treasurer, Donald Gill ; sergeants-at-arms, Julian Guilliom, and Bernard Paine. Nate. In May we made a spring pilgrimage to Blosser ' s Island. Box ball as enjoyed by those who did not skate. Elizabeth. Yes, and some of us got a dozen free rides bi, staying in the ferr boat. Virginia. Then came preparations for the prom: hotel arrangements, gym decorations, tally cards, punch, orchestra, waxed floor, crepe paper, tacks, and pins — what a mess we had to produce a suitable environment for the dancers. The banquet at the Alderman was a huge success. This was another happy memory to ha e with us through the summer. Nate. Even the most beautiful bubbles must burst — acation was over. Ve re-entered school as dignified seniors. X ' elma. A full program forced Mr. Schenck to resign his office as class sponsor. For the first time a senior class was given permission to be supervised by onl one sponsor. We consider ourselves very fortunate in maintaining Miss Wahl as our lone adviser. Nate. The officers obtained their positions by the usual method, and the result was as follows: president. Dale Peftley ; vice-president, Leta Phillips: secretarx , Alice Gerig ; treasurer, Katherine Dierdorft ; sergeants-at-arms, Mar Cietz, and Gerald Miller. Pauline. These financial enterprises were featured during this year. On Armistice Day we sold tags of welcome at the Homecoming game. ' elma. We next participated in a McCall subscription campaign and awarded copper Indian head badges to all who sold two or more subscriptions. Madeline Copenhaver received a white sweater for securing the largest number. Virginia. In order to carry on this campaign more successfully, we divided the class into seven Indian tribes. The tribal names began with each of the :even letters in the word, ;enior. Elizabeth. They were Shimuchleshoot, captained by Merle Peftley ; Eskimo- washie, led by Madeline Copenhaver ; Naskape, piloted by Everett Penrose ; Ishawawa, directed by Dale Peffley ; the Ozarks, supervised by Florence Kluckhuhn ; Rolia- whoo, guided by Olga Buerstrom ; Shoshoneans, managed by Elizabeth Whitehead.

During the senior farewell picnic many members have wandered off by them- selves in order to hunt for the grotto of Father Time. When the scene opens, June, one of the seniors, who has stopped to rest, is dreaming over a book. Betty, another senior, happens by and shows her a piece of paper she has found in the woods. Betty. What are you doing here ? June. Resting and dreaming, and dreaming and resting. Betty. You ' ll have to come to earth and look at this piece of paper I found in the woods. It seems to be a legal document of some sort, but part of it is missing. June. It ' s quite torn and blurred, but I believe that this is the way it goes: [reading] We, the Class of 1928, having come to the end of our mortal careers and being of a sane and sound mind, do earnestly desire to entrust a few of our most valued possessions to the tender regard and safe-keeping of oin- fellow students and solicitous teachers. Why, that ' s the will of the senior class. AVho could have lost it ? Let ' s read on. Betty. We most solemnly exhort the ones entrusted with these gifts to receive them in an humble spirit and to respect and honor their undoubted worth. We, there- fore, will and bequeath the following items. My, this is getting interested. Let ' s hurry to find out what they are giving away. lune. Oiu astonishing ability to make quick responses in class meetings, we give to the sophomores. Oin clear conscience we bequeath to our former :,ponsor, Mr. Schenck, who shamelessly deserted us in the midst of the trials and hardships of our high school career. Betty. Hum! It ' ll take more than that to clear his conscience. What comes next .• ' June. Our sincerest appreciation, to the faculty for their willing service and good fellowship with us. Betty. They sure deserve it. Let me read: Our many successful schemes of raising money in order always to provide the treasury with surplus capital, to the junior class. Page Thirty June. That ' ll cinch success for the junior c lass, I ' m sure. Betty. Ha! Now it ' s getting interesting. ' irginia Stuart ' s excellent schol- astic record to Christine Armour. June. Oh boy! Then for the E ' s. Orville Ross ' s ability to operate a :notor- cycle, to Grady Stubbs. Betty. He can use that on his hikes, and take them more often. Is the motor- cycle double-seated? Ha Ha! June. Olga Buerstrom reluctantly wills her ease to chew gum incessanth ' , to Miss Stutz. Miss Stutz ought to be able to use that. What brand does she like? Betty. Bob Bullock ' s highly matured — oh, that ' s where it ' s torn. Let ' s io see if we can find the rest of it. [Meainxhile a third girl walks upon the scene, carrying a bouquet of dowers wrapped in a piece of paper. She listens to the others reading, and when she happens to glance at the paper around the flowers she sees the rest of the sentence.] Jean. Why here ' s the rest of that. What was that first part? June. Boh Bullock ' s highly matured — Jean, mind goes to Lloyd Williams. Betty. That ' ll make a man out of Bunk . Jean. Julian Guilliom ' s fascinating charms go to Ralph Noel ; and Irene Ber- key ' s petite, blond beauty is given to Doris Burnstein. June. Good for Doris, as gentlemen prefer blondes. Jean.

Joan Huff leaves her stature to Barbara Dow. Ha. Joan is :ure big-hearted. June. Here, let me read while you ' re laughing. Elizabeth Vhitehead gives her executive ability, to Glenn Lantz. Betty. With that he should become a leader of men. June. Dale Pefiley, Charles Xoble, and Claude Shank bequeath their posi- tions on the high school football team to Valter and Defoe Ecklebarger and Sam Wiese. Jean. Well, that should boost next year ' s team. Betty. (Looking over June ' s shoulder), Ruth Naffziger ' s curls to Florence Burt ; and Nelson Starr ' s lusty voice to George Hetler. June.

Annis Moser reluctantly gi es up her art of attracting adnurable glances from the opposite sex, to Hazel Frey. Jean. I ' m sure she ' ll use it. June. Ray Gardner, with a willing heart, renders his rare blushes to Harry Snobarger. Jean. I ' m sure Harry will appreciate that. June. Agnes Weaver, with some hesitation, gives her too extensive vocabulary to Joe Yoder, providing he uses it when speaking at assemblies. Betty. That should be a great help to Jot Jean.

Here is the last bequest: The class leaves Charlie Burkett the thousands of pieces of paper strewn in the halls, several gross pencil stubs we have discarded, millions of finger-marks on windows, and five hundred wads of gum r.tuck everywhere, especially in the fountains.

Flag Scam. 1 Valedictory When once St. Augustine was asked to give a definition of time, he made reply : If you ask me what time is, I know not; but if you ask me not, then I know. Keeping this fact in mind, we learn that time is not tangible. We have it, yet we cannot see, hear, nor feel it. Still it is in evidence wherever we may be. We are now upon the crest of a great experience. Will it change us? For twcl e years we have been instructed and molded in preparation for life ' s adventures ; if we have profited by our schooling we shall be little different tomorrow than we are today. The mere act of graduating will not change us materially. By those experi- ences brought by time, by the changes found in space, and by the ever changing world, are our lives changed. Never again will this name life exist for us ; but it will li e in our hearts as a pleasure of the paLt, which can be neither lost nor stolen, but forever cherished as a happy memory. Thus, Ace leave it mournfully, but we are happy to have had so beautiful an adventure. Elizabeth Whitehead. Thirtv-two Juniors, Behold! [The Juniors, having completed a successful year, were extremely cmious con- cerning their affairs, the doings of next ear, when they will become Seniors in Cjoshen High School. Consequently, they consulted the (ireat Spiritualist. This is His revelation to them.] I, the Great Spiritualist, am about to unveil to your inferior eyes the future of the Class of 1929 during their last year in Goshen High School. Lo ! What do I see as the veil is unfolded? A class full of energetic, loyal students at their first class meeting of the year. The class sponsors, the same faithful, ever ready advisers. Miss Smith and Mr. Kintigh, are standing at the side of the assembly hal! with smiles on their faces. They realize the progress of their proteges and have confidence that every member will do his part toward making his class the para- mount order of the school. The newly elected officers, whom I cannot make out as clearly, are at the front of the room busying themselves with different groups of the class. Thev. too, realize that they are about to plunge into a season of tribulations; and that in order to emerge successfully, the entire body must co-operate, and endeavor to do its utmost. Each senior must know what subjects to take in order that every member mav graduate. Moreover, a great number of mii-cellaneous events — the senior partv, exams, and class get-togethers — will take considerable attention. Then there are the activities at the closing of the ear — Baccalaureate, Class Day, Commencement, the Banquet and Prom. Although the first semester will be difficult the second term will be more so. As a reward for the diligence, a diploma tied with a crimson ribbon, denoting that each is eligible for college or his life work, will be presented to each member who has completed his four years of study at dear, old (j.

Page Thirty-ihree CrIM50N THE SPIRIT OF LOYALTY TAKES OFF Oil September ii, 1928, the Class of 1929 took off, as juniors, on their nine months ' Hight to seniorship, in their huge dirigible, The Spirit of Loyalty . Vernon Pease, Charles Snyder, Dorothy Zook, Rhea East, John Foreman, and Chester Ji ' .lay were placed in command; and M:. Kintigh and Miss Smith spons- ored the flight. At the start of the hop, the craft was at its best, performing smoothly; its seven engines were in perfect harmony. After flying six weeks the dirigible en- countered a storm of L s, pink slips and low grades ; consequently the progress of tile Spirit of Loyalty as hindered. In order to revive the working parts, the seven mechanics — Virginia Hrown, John Fobes, Eloise Cjardner, Lillian Keyser, Mary Reith, Lucille Stoner, and Hemic.. ' Viiiiams — ordered the craft to be land- ed, and tliey proceeded to reassemble their motors by using a new type of lu- brication liquid, called Enthusiasm Oil. J his seemed to stimulate the engines, and the flight was re-umed. The Spirit of Loyalt had its first opportmiity to show off when the class had the conce.ssions at the Home Coming football game. The craft performed smoothl ' and the working parts were not worn out. Moreover additional capital was added to the fund, aiding financial matters. The shi|i flew on with remarkable success until it was called upon by its 1 ackers to display its ability, by giving a program of stunts called They All Want Something. The affair was a success due to the stabilit of the engines, their mechanics and the parachute jump- ers — C h a r 1 e s Suntheimer, Violet Strycker, John Foreman, Ralph RIough, Helen Stoner, Charles Snyder, Hubert Oorsuch, Rhea East, Jane IcQuate, Flore--ce Burt, Hurdette Bmbank, By- ron Zimmerman, Chester Juday, Bar- Paue Thirtv-four or 1928 bara Dow, and Eloise Cjardner ; their as- sistants — Harry Snobarger, Wava Ty- ler, Eloise Stephenson, Marion Mishler, Christine Armour, Robert Ramsby, James Detweiler, and Vernon Pease.

We were next sighted over the little town of Easter Vacation, which is just a few miles from the coast where re hopped oft for our record jaunt of eight Weeks over the Sea of Spring Fever. The first few weeks we had calm weather, experiencing no gales. The altometer registered I0,000 feet above the earth, and we were hitting about 125 miles per hour; but just as we were preparing for our grand finalt, the Prom, which was to be our formal landing on foreign soil some of the In- terest (jas leaked from the comiiart- ments. However, after much difficulty new gas was pumped in. The mechanics had to rejuvenate their engines with Ei-- thusiasm Oil because a number of the smaller parts failed to work, giving the larger ones a surplus amount of action. Part of the crew was senr ahead in one of the emergenc ' ships to prepare for this great formal landing. The chosen few were: Lester Binkley, Mark Reift ' , Burnette Berkey, Agnes Croop, Mary Stutzman, Mary Larson, Amy Bonfield, Albert Courtney, ' ivien Baker, Lois Kester, Llo d Williams, Louise Weaver, Bernice Williams, and Evelyn Roth.

HJd l R jB III « 930 1 1 KT The Review During the school term of 1927-28 the sophomore class was excellently represented in all major activities of the school. In football, of the entire squad fifteen were sophs, and of these the ones to receive mono- grams were: Toby Voder, Ed Anglemeyer, Paul George, Eldy Kyle, Joe Voder, and Bob Bowman. The latter acted as trainer of the team, being unable to compete in any games because of an injury received early in the season. In basketball Joe Voder, Eldy Kyle, Ed Anglemeyer, Paul George, Bob Peffley, Do:i Fobes, Wilbur Ganger, and Toby Voder were the representatives on the squad, and of these, Joe Voder, Eldy Kyle, Ed Anglemeyer, and Paul C eorge received the G . Bowman was again the squad trainer. On the baseball squad this year the sophs were represented by John Shanahan, Bob Bow- man, Eldy Kyle, Melvin Keim, Bob Voder, and Frank Hoogenboom. Kyle, Bowman, and Yoder are at this time playing steadily at second, right field, and first, respectively, and seem sure of their letters. The tennis group also has its quota — Don Fobes, Paul George, Paul Reith, Joe Blough, and Jack Holloway being the members. The track squad has Toby and Joe Voder, Paul George, Richard Fairchild, Jack O ' Shea, John Davis, Frank Putt, Don Fobes, J. S. Kauffman, CSeorge Pechtel, Paul Muth, Don Cripc, and Harold Mills as the sophomore representation. For all these athletic activities the school has Bud Kintigh as one of the cheer leaders. The record in scholarship is as follows: the honor sweate-:- winners are Don Cripe Ma Warstlcr, Maxine Sleppy, I.auia Kibler, and Floyd Pletcher; the ranking students are John Davis, Betty Stout, Inez Hauder, Ed Dausman, and Russel Smoker.

Over the wireless this morning came the pictures of the sponsors. These persons are ever ready to help when their services were needed. They were ever thinking of plans to make the undertakings successful. The class under their guidance has done and will do great things. The sophomores are very grateful to them for their untiring service. We believe that Miss Helen Vanderveer and Mr. Daniel Gerig are the best sponsors that could have been chosen. March i, 1928. Todav was a red letter one for our oifice because we received the picture of the vic- torious basketball team which came through without one defeat. In each and every game the fellows fought hard for the glory of their class. It is this kind of spirit that wins. The able representatives of the Class of 1930 were: Captain J. S. Kauffman, Mel- vin Keim, Ford Larrabee, Lloyd Weaver, Kenneth Zollinger, Joe Blough, and Charles Harper. January 17, 193?. The picture of Honor Students for the first semester was the impression received ovej; the wire this morning. The main purpose of a school is to give an education to its students. Therefore any class in the school which has a large number of names on the honor roll has a right to be proud, because these stu- dents are the ones who are representing the class in a most important activity. The group of four E pupils shown consists of May Warstler, Don Cripe, Paul Zook, Laura Kib- ler, and John Davis. Others on the roll are Betty Stout, Ed Anglemeyer, Ed Dausman, Jack Hollowav, Russel Smoker, and Irene Todd. November 28, 1927.

THE REVIEW (Continued) The debating team was represented bj- Ford Larrabee, Jack Davis, and Ed Daus- man. Betty Stout and Kitty Vernon helped to make up the Music iVIemory team. Perhaps the most important and note- worthy accomplishment of the class is the Tomahawk , the school .paper, originated, sponsored, managed, and printed by a cap- able staff of fifteen, chosen entirely from the sophomore class. For both years of its existence LaMar Rensbarger has been edi- tor-in-chief of the paper, and this year is ably assisted by John W. Davis, as manag- ing editor. This is the history of activities of sopho- mores, which shows that this organization is up and doing. — Ed Dausman. Page Thirty-eight or 1928 Thoughts of a Freshman Oh, Freshmen.

Page Thiri) -nine Tf)e Crim50n A FRESHMAN FEATURE PROGRAM Today the program being broadcasted from radio station G. H. S., located on the third floor of the Goshen High School, broadcasting on a frequency of 1 93 I kilocycles by the authority of the School Radio Commission, is sponsored b the members of the freshmen class. The first number on this feature pro- groni is registration. All eighth grade graduates from any school, desiring a higher education, came to Room 37 on Seiitember 8, 1927, to register as stu- dents in the high school. The picture shows them entering the building. We now have the privilege of intro- ducing to you the class officers. From left to right, top row, they are : Robert Welty, president; Dick Belasco, ser- geant-at-arms ; Roy Umble, vice-presi- dent. In the lower row are: Ruth Spotts, secretary ; June McConnell, ser- geant-at-arms ; Ruth Sharpe, treasurer. rheje officers have ruled the class with justice and wisdom throughout the year. As the next number Miss Doris Bea- man and Mr. Grady Stubbs, our faith- ful sponsors, will give a joint lecture on How to Run a Freshman Class. I am sure that their remarks will be very help- ful to you, and that sometime in the future ou will have occasion to use them. ' ou will now hear an instrumental selection by the members of the Fresh- man Little Symphony Orchestra. The number they will play is To a High School Baby, written by I. Al. Green. During this brief intermission you can hear the cries: Candy! Peanuts! (iiim ! and Eskimo Pies! , and you will know that the freshmen are conducting a concession at the Goshen- alpo basket- ball game in order to earn money for the class treasury. We will now present to you, as the next number on our program, not the Pr e Forty or 1 926 bright lights of Broadway, but of our fir t semester. They are : Rose Adams, Valeria Barnard, Elmer Culp, Roberta Hauder, Ruth Sharpe, Dorothy Troyer, and Madeline Walter. These students shine upon the class from their pinnacle of success in scholarship, each having ob- tained a record of four E ' s. Ruth Shariic had the honor of leading the entire school in scholarship. We are now introducing, as a change in the program, the Smiling Songsters, who will entertain you with a group of three selections. The first is a charming, little ditty entitled Having Our Ups and Downs. This popular song is par- ticularly applicable to the members of the freshman class. The next is the song, The Sweetheart of Goshen High. ' Their last number is Birving Erlin ' s latest hit, Strolling Down the Cor- ridor. Warren Alwine, captain of the class basketball team, will now tell you about the games they have played this season. The other members of the team are : Ancel Whittle, Roy Umble, Ernest Herman, (leraldine Christoffel, John Hoke, Llo ' d Whitmer, and Cieorge Bul- lock. Our program for this ear is now drawing to a close and soon you will hear the happy shouts of the students who are overjoyed at the thought of school closing and the fact that vacation is here. We hope that you have enjoyed this feature program, sent to you by the members of the freshman class; and if you care to do so, you may tune in on this station at this time next year when the same class will bring to you another program. We are now signing ofif on exactU the 31st of May, 1928. (joodbye, everyone, and thank you. Dorothy Troyer and Roberta Hauder.

AVhen he becomes a Sophomore, He thinks he owns the earth. And lords it over the Freshmen As if he ' d a higher birth ; But he meets in the Junior His proverbial Waterloo ; And they knock the paint and shine off, ' Til he looks anything but new. In the third scene come the Juniors, Frightened Sophomores in their grip; Freshies sh - and run for cover, When down the hall these demons skip. But the Juniors, when they ' re spotted By the Seniors ' searching glance. Set a lively piece a-playing. And to the Seniors ' tune their dance.

Page Forty-two ii The Sunshine Society The Sunshine Society is an organization created for the purpose of radiating sunshine in both home and school life. The year 1927-28 has been a most prosperous one in this respect, and the Goshen chapter has been able to uphold the high standard set during the first year of its existence. One of the important campaigns successfully carried out was that of supporting two little girls of the Kentucky mountains and enabling thein to attend school. Another means of spreading sunshine which the (jofheii chapter has used is that of sending flowers, and words of cheer and encouragement to invalids. In looking back over the year just past we feel that our time lias not been wasted.

C)iie of these was the report of Hud Kintigh and Donald (jill of the state Hi- ' Convention which they had attended at Lafayette, Indiana. In their talk to the club they revealed their good times and brought back other interesting information to the members. ' I he Hi-Y football banquet, followed by a swimming party which was held in the South Bend ' , was ar.other long remembered event. The organization then undertook to show the first moving picture of the year when they presented Mickey . Needless to say, it was a big success. Another bright light which will live long in the memories of the members is the annual Hi-Y Father and Son Banquet. The election of officers, which took place April 4, resulted as follows: president, Lloyd Williams; vice-president, Ed Angleineyer; secretary, Don Fobes ; treasurer, John Fobes; sergeants-at-arms, Hubert Gorsuch and Joe Yoder. Fhe initiations which were given when new members were received, were very comical and well carried out. Several amendments were added to the constitution. 1 he last thing each year is the steak fry, which takes place either in the cafeteria or at the dam according to the weather, and is held in the last week of school.

The club of eighty pupils is made up of members of the chemistr and physics classes, although a movement to restrict membership to the chemistrx ' classes has been discussed. The slogan of the organiza- tion, adopted two years ago, is Science, Sense, and Nonsense . The officers this year were: Elizabeth AVhitehead, president; Charles Snyder, vice-president ; Marion Mishler, secretary ; and Leta Phillips, treasurer. Mr. Welty is the faculty sponsor. Meetings were held every other Tuesday night. The club has been a success financially, having cleared $150 at several concessions, chiefly at the sectional tournament. Part of the surplus will be used in filling up the dark room for photography work, and in purchasing two portraits of distinguished scientists, to be put in Room 60. The feature events of the ear were a talk by Dr. Kalb on Febniar 2 S on the relation of dentistry to chemistry, and one by Mr. Walter on the relation of chemistry to physics. Included in the main activities of the year were a Christmas program on Decembe 23, a skating party at Blosser ' s on May 2, and a banquet on May 17 in the cafeteria. All were well attended.

The Wranglers The Wranglers of 1928 have proved to be one of the most active and one of the largest organizations in Goshen High School. The club was especially prosperous under the administration of Charles Snyder. However, when the junior play began claiming much of his time, he felt that he could not do justice to his office of preside. it, and resigned. His successor, Paidine Reeves, continued the fine work of the club. The other officers were: vice-president, Rhea East; secretary-treasurer, Doris Burnstein; and assistant secretary-treasurer, Mary Larson. Amy Bonfield was appointed business manager of the debates. I ' he teams were as follows: alflrmative — Pauline Reeves, John Davis, Louise Vea er, and Roy Umble ; negative — Doris Burnstein, Edward Dausman, Ford Lar- rabee, and ALiry Larson. They worked very hard all year under the direction of the coaches, Mr. Stubbs and Mrs. DeVore, on the question, Resolved: That the plan of farm relief as propo.sed by the McNary-Haugen Bill of the 69th Congress be adopted by the federal government. The debates as scheduled were: Warsaw, March 6; Elkhart, March 27; Ply- mouth, April 19; and South Bend, April 24. Critic judges were emplo ed by Goshen at all the debates because of the high aiue of their critiques. The Wranglers had monthly parties which were always well attended, because the members knew that the mere mentioning of a Wranglers party assured them of a good time. In the weekly business meetings, either dual debates or general discussions on local subjects were given.

The parades preceding football games were very colorful and did much to inspire the players and fans with that do-or-die spirit that wins. These musicians were present at nearly all the basketball games with a never ending supply of music. Just before the athletic events started and the teams came on the floor, everyone sang the Loyalty Song, instilling an affection for the school in both stduents and members of the Crimson and White teams. In the early part of the year two concerts in connection with picture shows were given at the Jefferson theatre on successive nights before fairly large crowds. In this manner sufficient funds were collected to buy additional uniforms and several instruments. This organization entered the Northern Indiana District Band Contest held at the Elkhart High School auditorium on April 2S. They competed with sixteen other bands. Page Fift -= 22 22.

The Orchestra The Goshen High School orchestra, which five years ago consisted of ten mem- bers, now has enrolled eighteen violins, three violas, two cellos, two bass violas, two trumpets, two slide trombones, one English horn, one French horn, two clarinets, one saxophone, one flute, two drums, and a piano. On important occasions, as the junior and senior class plays, the orchestra gave its able support. The members of this organization have also shown fine co-operation and much talent in the operetta and general assemblies. The orchestra was entered in the Northern Indiana District Orchestra Contest at Elkhart, April 28. Under the direction of Professor Reginald Brinkelow, with the assistance of Miss Margaret Bro l, much improvement has been noticed within the last few years. Ai well as the growth in numbers there has been a decided change for the better in instrumentation. Page Fifty-one tf)e Crim50n A Bit of Life at G. H. S. The I ' illain One day while zealously studying in Room 37, I had the feeling of being watched by strange eyes. Unable to keep my attention on my work any longer, I glanced up and found — nothing. I looked back, but I met only the stern face of the teacher n charge. Not finding what I was looking for, I returned to my work. However, it was of no avail, for the invisible eyes seemed to be directed on me more than ever. Giving up, I turned my face to the right and there %aw the most villainous looking person I had ever come in contact with. He was almost as thin as paper, though he seemed to be strong. The light shining upon him gave his form such fantastical shapes that it was almost impossible to tell whether or not he was human. His eyes stared at me with a fierceness that appalled my soul, and his large, black mustache added to my fear. I was terrified. He commanded me to stand; I arose. I was compelled to approach him, but I wanted to run the other way. As I stepped before him, my eyes looked up and I found that it was the picture of the coach of the G. H. S. baseball team of 1901. Florence Swinehart. My Son ' s a Star The great day had arrived. Yes, more than that — the very hour had arrived when fond mammas and papas woidd see their own sons and daughters starring in a real dramatic pro- duction, the Class play. Mr. and Mrs. Jones bustled in half an hour early, and proudly took the front seats that Bobby had reserved for them; for he was to be the honored hero, a nd every act he made would be jealously regarded by other parents not so fortunate. Several boys with their first dates came early, also, to crunch peanuts and twitter nervously about every person that came in. Ten minutes before time everyone was there: Mrs. Brown telling her neighbor excitedly about what a time Mary Jane had to get a fairy ' s costume; Bill and Will grumbling because Miss Weaver hadn ' t chosen them for the part of the Badger twins; and poor Mrs. Smith sitting humbly in a rear seat awaiting with tense interest the time when the curtains would open, and her onl ' child appear as hero of the occasion. At last, the lights switch off, the curtains swing apart, and the play has started. Dorothy Zook. TJie Hero Have you ever been called on to speak at a jollification? H you have, you know what a sinking, hollow feeling it puts into the pit of your stomach. You are sitting there beside x)ur best girl md hugely enjoying the speaker ' s discomfort, when through the loud applause and din of voices you hear your name called. Your neck gets red and your head fairly swims as you stumble in a daze up the aisle. When you arrive you see a mob of eager faces waiting expectantly for you to give an oration. Your hands and feet have never seemed so long, big, and clumsy. Where have all vhe flowery words gone that you had prepared? They have simply vanished as though by magic. Instead, from your mouth — from the gulp in your throat — comes an incoherent, incorrect jumble of bad English. Out of courtesy the fellow students clap their hands, and you fairly run back to your seat; there sits the sheba , smiling, and much to your embarrassment loudly proclaims you her Hero. Helen Stoner. (Continued on Page 84) Page Fifty-two tONMiAotenEm or 1 926 Football By f coring 136 points to their opponents ' 46, the Cioshen High School football team enjoyed a fairly successful season. Although a better record might have been expected, one must admit that, with such teams on the schedule as the Burnham- coached Bears from South Bend, the Mishawaka Cavemen, and Elkhart ' s Big Blue team, the (joshen gridders did exceedingly well. The first two games on the Crimson schedule proved to be nothing more than practice games. To open the 1927 season the Red Menace walloped Kendallville 31-0, and a week later succeeded in whitewashing the Crimson team of Blufi ' ton by a 47-0 count. The following game was played with the Mishawaka Cavemen. Here the Goshen winning streak came to an abrupt stop. Our defense cracked before the slashing ofifensive used bv Coach Steele ' s chargers. When the final gun sounded, Goshen was on the short end of a 12-6 score. Our next game was at Wabash and again we failed to bring home the bacon . This time the count was 7-0 against us. 1 hen came the game of games, the Homecoming tilt with South Bend. New bleachers were erected along the south side of the gridiron to more fully accommodate the thousands who were expected to attend. Approximately 300 members of the in w ' m Page Fifty-three Tf)e Crim50n Alumni returned home from universities or abandoned their work so that they might attend the first successful homecoming in the history of the school. Perfect football weather prevailed as the two e enly-matched teams trotted upon the gridiron. Goshen, staging an unexpected, yet brilliant, march down the field soon after the opening kickoff, managed to crojs South Bend ' s goal line within five minutes alter the initial play of the game. The Orange and Blue, however, were not to be so easily defeated and fought on even terms with the locals during the remainder of the half, which ended with Goshen leading the way, 7-0. Fight as they may, the last half proved too much for the Crimson; the Bears, employing a clean style of straight football, managed to outfight the (joshen gridders to the tune of 14-7. Never before on Foreman Field has a better spirit of true sportsmanship been shown among the plavers of opposing teams. The town was beautifully decorated with the colors representing the two schools. Few merchants failed to grasp the spirit of homecoming. Many of the usual window displays were replaced by some very cle er features pertaining to that gala day in Goshen — Homecoming. The business men are to be commended on their highly-appre- ciated co-operation. After defeating Plymouth a week later 26-0, Cjoshen fell before a determined Big Blue team from ten miles west, representing Elkhart. They handed us the most decisive defeat to be be given us by any other team on the schedule, 13-0. With neither team getting the breaks, Warsaw and Goshen fought to a scoreless tie in the poorest game played by the locals during the entire season. To end the ser.-on. the Red Menace defeated Howe, 19-0. Page Fifty-four or 1926 Those lost from the team through graduation are Robert Rule, captain ; Warstler, one of Goshen ' s most popular athletes ; Bob Lehman, for two years a stellar center ; Pete Bradford, Claude Shank, Jim Donovan, Eddie Baxter, Charles Noble, and Dale Pefiflev. However, with such men as Anglemeyer, Joe Yoder, Paul George, Toby oder. Bowman, Kyle, Pease, Swanberg, O ' Shea, and Snyder returning to the squad next vear. Coach Phillips should have little to worry about.

They battled from the first game of the season to the final game of the regional to uney, winning 21 games and losing 6 to such teams as East Chicaeo. Emerson, Hammond, Rochester, and Valparaiso. The Redskins faced one of the hardest schedules ever arranged for a Goshen team. By defeating Froebel of Gary 30-14, Mishawaka 38-27, South Bend 37-35, Elkhart 34-29, Nappanee 38-35, LaPorte 69-24, and Plymouth 43-32, Goshen copped third place in the Big 15, the first two places being won by East Chicago and Emerson of Gary, respectively. Probably three of the most outstanding victories were over South Bend, Misha- waka, and Froebel of Gary. The win over Froebel marked the first (loshen victorv over any Gary team in the history of the two schools. Without the slightest trouble the Redskins easily proved themselves sectional champions by first defeating Bristol, then Wakarusa, and, in the final game, Elkhart. Page Fifty-six =:=: 2: 2 or 1 92a The Rrgional at .Miiliaui in At Misha aka in the regional tourney, however, (joshen found the competition much greater. They succeeded in winning their first game with Vinamac, 41-33, onlv after a fairly hard struggle. In the final game they faced probably the best team in northern Indiana, Rochester. Here the Crimson basketeers were defeated, 27-15. Rochester obtained a fairly good lead in the first half and then won their way to victory and the state tournament. Sweaters were awarded to the follo ing twelve men: Nate Warstler, who has captained the team to the best possible advantage : Hunk Villiams, all-sectional center and all-regional for ard ; Eldy Kyle, all-regional guard ; Joe oder, a main cog in the Redskin defensive machinery; Ed Anglemeyer, (jcrald Miller. Jukey Fobes, Toby Yoder, Mac Diepenbos, Francis Koerner, Paul (leorge, and Dale Peffley — other braves. Of these twelve, only one regular and four substitutes graduate ; namely, Warstler, .Miller, Diepenbos, Koerner, and Peffley. Irrsity B Team At the close of the season the Palefaces were compo.sed of: Bob Peffley, Huster Blough, Don Fobes. Charles Snyder, joe Curtis, (danger, Firestone, Koerner, and Paul Reith. They played the varsity teams from Millersbiag and Jamestown, defeating both of these teams twice. The Palefaces proved their strength when they defeated Millersburg, the winner over New Paris, the team that overcame the Redskins by one point in the first game in the local gym. The star performers for the seconds were : Captain George, Rob Peffle , Don Fobes, Wilbur Cianger, and Buster Blough. These fi e men will return to the squad next year and should make varsit A material. BASKETBALL SCHEDULE New Paris 21 Goshen 23 Washington ( E.

Although they outhit their opponents eight to six, they were unable to take the advantage, and dropped the hard-fought contest by a 4 to 2 count. T he defeat was caused by their inability to run the bases effectively. Four days later, April 2i, Goshen, showing a decided improvement, scored two runs while the LaPorte Slicers were unable to collect more than one. Thus the home team walked off Foreman Field with their first baseball victory of the season. The Red Sox are in the Northern Indiana Conference with South Bend, Nap- panee, LaPorte, Pl -nouth, and Mishawaka ; and if they play their best brand of ball Goshen can be expected to place near the top of the league. The baseball team, as it lined up against LaPorte, is as follows: Nate Varstler, third base; Bob ' oder, first base; Eldy Kyle, second base; Pete Bradford, catcher; Lloyd Whitmer, left field ; Bunk Williams, center field ; Ralph Bowman, right field ; ALirion Shelly, pitcher; and Dale Peffley, shortstop and captain. Page Fifty-einht Track Although the Goshen High School track team as a whole was not such a suc- cessful one, Coach Ulery discovered the best weight man G. H. S. has ever known. This man, Jack O ' Shea, has won a first place in all meets in which he has participated this season. In the Goshen Relays, which is the second largest track meet in the state, he easily won the blue ribbon in the shot put, his best put being 44 feet i inch. With such a heave, he should easily win laurels in the State meet at Indianapolis. In a meet at Elkhart the Goshen tracksters were unable to cop more than fifth place, nth 5 ' 8 points, made by O ' Shea and Williams. O ' Shea won the shot put event, while Williams tied with seven others in the high jump for third. At the Cioshen Relays the Elkhart track squad proved to be one of the best in Northern Indiana by winning first place and the large silver loving cup. CiOshen this time won six points through the efforts of ( Shea in the shot pvit and Tob) ' Yoder in the 440yard dash. The squad was made up of Pat O ' Shea, Bunk Williams, John Fobes, Clark Croop, Amos ontz, Claude Shank, Toby Yoder, Joe Yoder, Paul George, Don Cripe, Dick Fairchild, Harold Mills, Vernon Pease, Clay Smith, Shurl Vogoman, Fred Banta, J. S. Kauffman, and Paul Holderman.

Who Rah ! Goshen High! Rah! Rah! This is one of the many yells which I- ' raiik and Bud led during the athletic activities. As the team made their appearance they were always greeted by the yelling section gener- aled by these two leaders. They never for- got their duty regardless of the score. After the game with the town called Bluffton, We found we had won +7-0. Using a straight form of good football, the Goshen Red Menace was able to tear the Bluffton defense to shreds and consec|uently hang up the second victory of the season. The locals played their best game at Bluffton. We ' re loyal to you, Goshen High ! The Crimson and White, Goshen High ! Much of the success of the basketball season was due the Goshen High School Band. To know the crowd is for you and to get the thrill of the loyaltv song is victory- in itself. To play their best — An occasional rest. On September 17 the Red Menace played the Kendallville Red Devils on Foreman Field. This Saturday happened to be one of the warmest da_ s last fall and much time Avas taken for rest. Instead of the usual con- cessions of hot dogs, pop and ice cream were sold. After our victor} ' , we had to eat; We hopped in the bus and tore down the street. After every out-of-town game, tradition de- mands that we eat — and so do we. After the feed we were home vard bound ; nothing to do now but sing and wait for our journey ' s end. Page Sixty USNMO A a£MEM« 2 or 1926 In Memoriam I. w. w. I. W.

I Love Me It was I love me both day and night; But alas! he squeezed himself too tight. L O. Millions He would borrow money and forget to pay ; But now give thanks — he ' s passed awav. Miss Spearmint She would chew a w ad as big as a boat ; But she ' s passed Beyond with it stuck in her throat. Always Late When he came to high school he was always late; In the next world, we hop e, he gets in the Gate . A. Sponger A sponger bold lies here at rest; He died while wearing his best friend ' s vest. Lotta Jabber Have you heard the latest? was her last peep ; She died of gossip and secrecy deep. I. M. A. Senior I ' m a man said the senior with diploma unfurled ; But he froze to death in this cold, cruel world. Miss Wet Blanket When aiiything was planned, she was sure not to like it; But she dampened one too many — now she lies here in quiet. Louis Longface He never had i happy hour; his thoughts were always mean; But now he ' s sleeping pleasantiv, out where the grass grows green. Johnny Flunk Lies slumbering here one Johnny Flunk; In his grave with D ' s he sadly sunk. Whisper Will Incessantly enchanted Whisper Will — His reward of U ' s sent him through the mill. Slow and Merry Promenader Down the hall the couple strolled; It wasn ' t long till their death was tolled. Freshman (lay Here lies little Freshman Gay; Who died maintaining his right-o ' -wav. Champ Note Writer Beneath the stone sleeps Champ Note Writer; Teacher got one — he tried to fight her. A. Food Craver He slipped into the cafeteria line; He dualed another just as anxious to dine. Pat O ' Shifter His average was a pink slip a dav; From the severe shock his heart gave way. Tommy Sleeper In the study hall snored Tommy Sleeper; He was badly frightened by the assembly keeper. Page Sixty-one tf)e Crimson MV ENEMY I have an engagement to keep, And it ' s a secret veiv deep ; But I ' ll tell you If you ' ll keep mum, And act as if ' ou are dumb. It ' s with the pencil sharpener In the study hall. And, well — It almost makes me bawl. I grind and grind away at it. Bill will it sharpen my pencil? Not a bit. Some dark, stormy, gloomy night I ' ll sneak in there and fight That hated pencil sharpener. I ' ll tear it loose From the window sill, And hammer it. And make a kill ; And when a new one ' s put in place. You ' ll see me with a smiling face. Virginia Mishler. IT ' S HERE It ' s here! It ' s here! The scurry of feet; The running so fleet — Both seem to shout, It ' s here, It ' s here I It ' s here, It ' s here! The laughing we hear; The weeping so near — And what is it that ' s here? Report Card Day, my dear. — Fritz Bickel. ••AMONG MY SOUVENIRS There ' s a few things left for me Of the days that used-to-be; 1 found them sorrowfully . mong my souvenirs. Some flunk cards tied in blue; A nice pink slip or two; And notes of love once true — .Among my souvenirs. Four report cards minus E ' s; Pictures of teachers I tried to please; Letters from the principal concerning me — Among my souvenirs. — Helen Stoner. Page Sixty-two of 1926 A GRAND AND GLORIOUS FEELING ' A tickling, tantalizing breeze coasts down from the hills and catches you square in the back in spite of all your protests. After a while you are completely worn out and de- cide to sit down in the shade of the old plum tree, and there you dream of catching a mam- moth trout ill the little stream back in the pasture lot. How your fingers itch to grasp that old cane pole — to put some long, fat worms on the rusty hook and to catch dozens and dozens of fish! How everlastingly peace- ful everything seems! The earth is so cool that } ' ou la - our face down deep in the grass to driiik in the dewy sweetness. ' ou wish you could stay here forever with your dreams, but just as you are slipping into that realm of unconsciousness a voice rings out harshly: Johnny, shake off that Spring lever and bring in the wood. Your dreams are shattered into tin shreds; but say, while you had them, didn ' t they give you a grand and glorious feeling? Violet Strvcker. THE KILL-JOY I guess I must, But gee. I hate To stay at home And get English 8. ' irginia Brown. OH HOW WE DREAD IT! They ' re cleaning house at my house; I guess it ' s for the best; The only clothes that I could find This morning was a vest. I guess I should be patient, still 1 do object. I think. To sleeping in the bathtub, And eating in the sink. Florence Burt. Page Sixty-three Tf)e Crim50n As We See Them THE GOLDDIGGER With that blue-eyed baby he had a date. But found she was a golddigger when it was too late ; And now everywhere he ' s forced to roam, For she dug him out of house and home. — Burdette Burbank. THE CREPE-HANGER I saw a man with a haggard face. Who viewed the world as an awful place. A hated crepe-hanger was he. And demanded that everyone else should be. — Romaine Brumbaugh. COCKY Rafter high his head is held, As if he has the town to sell ; Boldly down the street he struts, But only in his father ' s tux. The concrete walk is none too wide As he walks from side to side; A group he passes, groaning with a sigh. Hi, Cocky, go on by! — Marion Diepenbos THE LOAFER He always has been a loafer : All he does is drift around, Leaning on someone ' s shoulder. To keep from falling down. -Bernice Williams. SHE HAS IT That certain unnanieable something that gets you. It isn ' t exactly the color of her clothes although the are enough to dazzle one, so bright are the colors. Perhaps it is her eyes: the soft brown of the oung lambs and calves; the bright, snappy blue ones of the tiny kittens ; or the light grey-green flecked ones of the baby ducks. Is it her voice? It can be soft and mild and warm and usually is, but it can also be very brisk when the occasion allows. 1 think it is her general appearance and her own youthful self that attracts one to her. She weaves a spell over every one who comes into contact with her who has not become too old and world-hardened to fall for the charms of a blithe, young spirit. Yes, Spring has IT. Elizabeth Mills.

I-XL Kitchen Furniture The I-XL Furniture Company Goshen, Indiana Page Eighty-three tf)e Cl IM50N (Continued from Page 52) The Ri-iijn of Terror I sit in class with a dreadful fear. Will I be called on next? Oh, how I hate to get up before the class! As I rise with shaking knees, I can just feel those millions of eyes on me. There is the queerest sensation in the pit of my stomach, as though it were all upside down. My throat draws up into a knot and burns as if on fire. When I try to speak the words will not come. A dreadful silence settles over the room, which lasts for ages; and then I hear a voice booming forth. Is that voice mine? Surely not, for I never talk as loud as that; but I find that it is. As I read from my paper how foolish it sounds. Last night when I wrote it, I felt that it was good, but now I know how silly it really is. At last I am nearly through, and my throat feels as though I could not squeeze another word through it. I feel that every one in the room knows how uncomfortable I am and is laughing at me. The last word is spoken and I drop into my seat. Well, thank goodness, that is over — at least for this period. Rhea East. ..
