c The r H 5 Crimson x £) 1932 J l?|i8toru of he drimson Listen, my children, and you shall hear, the tale of the Crimson from year to year. The annual of Goshen High School is a very old publication. In fact, my dears, older than the High School building itself. It was way back in 1907 (ask your parents about that) that the Crim- son was born. Maynard Simond had the distinction of being the first editor of this monthly magazine — you see. it hadn ' t grown into an annual yet — which was published six times that year. The editor of the 1908 book is unknown, but evidently he was more ambitious, since nine issues were pubished. This became the standard for eight years (until 1916), each issue averaging thirty-two pages. Frank Abbott was editor of the 1909 Crimson. In 1909-1910, Maurice Elliot, editor, published eight monthly issues and a final commencement number of annual proportions. The 1910-1911 magazine was a very peppy Crimson. The editor. John Abbott, was the brother of Frank .Abbott, editor of the third Crimson. In 1911-1912, the magazine became a clever, dignified publication, edit- ed by Xed Newell. Editors Lester Blough and Walter Kester in 1913 and 1914. respec- tively, edited Crimsons that were -very popular. In 1916, Frederick Winterhoff transformed the magazine issue into one big annual. Here appears pictures of the graduates, the girls in their uni- form shirtwaists and the boys in stiff collars. Really, you should see it ! Andrew Sallade. editor in 1917. in spite of stress of war times, publish- ed an annual. America ' s entrance into the World War compelled Editor Paul Kinney in 1918 and Editor Warren McCumsey in 1919 to reduce the size of the Crimson. Finally the post war drain became so great that there was no Crimson at all in 1920. That Senior Class goes unrecorded. From 1921-1924 the following editors put out annuals: 1921, Kenneth Stambaugh ; 1922, Harold Bechtel; 1923, James Harrison; 1924, Rosemary Harper — the first feminine editor. The size was larger than ever before, consisting of 150 pages. Another cycle was completed, for in 1925, Editor Herbert Green went back to the magazine form, publishing nine issues. In 1926 Margaret Hawk changed back to the annual, which was cut to 105 pages. In 1928 William Hulwick edited a splendid publication. In 1929 John Fobes published a very original and clever Crimson. In 1930, 1931, the editors were Betty Stout and Valeria Barnard, re- spectively, and the 1932 Crimson is again headed by a girl, Jane Rummell. J. R.
