Hepp Junior Girls - High School Orchestra CLASS POEM Lift up your head proud school of light. Lift up your eyes from out the night. And brave this world of a wintry blast — The sting of the cold that dies at last. School of broad triumphs and high aims. School of ambition, ideals, honored names — Grasp those glories for which you desire. Holding them high in the flames of the fire. Halls of dim memories; halls of pleasure; Halls of hard faithful work; halls of leisure: — We hold you enshrined in the inner heart As Mother of our ambition and all our art. Yesterday, we were children inside a high wall; Today, we answer to Ambition's strong call; Tomorrow, we shall remember you, G. P. H. S., And wish for your knowledge then to possess. Now that the end of four years draws near. Now that the parting of ways is here. Live on. Dear School, though we now pass. Live on forever after this twenty-two class. Hours drift into days, and days into endless years; Time moves on like the tread of soft fallen tears; But ever fresh will be the memory of you Held sacred by the class of twenty-two. Thelma Sheehan '22 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY FOUR years ago the now distinguished class of'22 entered G. P. H. S.'s honored halls to acquire knowledge. With muddled brains and enlarged feet, we floundered from one room to the other with teachers telling us, pushing us. and coaxing us into the right classes. Our first real friend, we found, when we began our career as Freshmen in High School, was Mrs. Parent, our class adviser. We chose green and gold as our class colors and elected the following executives: Waldo Baker, President; Gretchen Clemens, Vice President; Mable Peterson, Secretary; Eugene Murphy, Treasurer. The first social event was the Senior reception. A little later, a football rally was planned, and to this we gave our support by featuring the annual Freshman fire on the campus. At the close of our first year, the scholarship medal was awarded to Corlyss Courtney. We were not quite so strong in numbers the next fall as we had hoped to be, but nevertheless the class proved to be ambitious and full of pep. Mrs. Parent was again our class adviser. Our officers for that year were as follows: Keith Edgerton, President; Josephine F. Smith. Vice President; Anna Neilson, Secretary; Josephine A. Smith, Treasurer. We gave many interesting entertainments during the year, the most enjoyable of which was our initiation of the Frosh into the mysteries of the G. P. H.S. We were represented on the football team and also on the basketball team. Corlyss Courtney was again awarded the scholarship medal. In our Junior year, we were able to boast of many accomplishments. With Mrs. Parent as our hope and inspiration, we had as our officers: Eugene Murphy, President; Waldo Baker, Vice President; Katherine Knox, Secretary; William Ament, Treasurer. Many of our boys were on the football team and we were again represented on the basketball team. The Junior Class carried off many school honors. Three of the members of the debating team came from our class. We published the Annual Toka, which was a decided success. Entertainments were given throughout the year to help finance this publication. This year, James Henrikson won the scholarship medal. At the Student Body election which was held in the spring, three of the officers were chosen from our class: Tuglas Ross. President; Eugene Murphy, Vice President; Katherine Knox. Secretary. Then came our last year. After being in Grants Pass Hi for three years, we were able to carry the responsibility of being Dignified Seniors. The officers we elected were: Waldo Baker, President; Donald Woodin, Vice President; Corlyss Courtney, Secretary; William Ament. Treasurer; Keith Edgerton, Student Body Council Representative. Although our enrollment is considerably less than when we entered G. P. H. S„ we number sixty graduates, the largest class to ever graduate from this school. At the beginning of the second semester, Violet Best took William Ament s place as Treasurer. The school bi-weekly paper was founded this year and we SI had on the staff; Corlyss Courtney, Lula Garret. Melba Macy. and Arthur Close. Again, three of our members composed the first debate team and four the second team. Mrs. Parent was our worthy class adviser during this year, also. And Now, as we leave G. P. H. S., probably forever, we wish to give a cheer for the dear old school. Enjoy your school days while you may, underclassmen; the word, graduation, is not as it sounds from the outside; it is accompanied by a strange feeling akin to pain, and resembles sorrow only as the mist resembles rain. — Melba Macy '22. tlltt SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY “'W'V T HAT a haggard-looking bunch of Seniors, thought the now famous Miss Garrett. President of the American Federation of Labor, as she T stood at the entrance of the English room at G. P. H. S. and watched the Seniors pour out of the room. They certainly do look overworked. They should belong to the union. As they hurried by her, such disjointed phrases as, She didn't bawl us out; “No.no ---- Mrs. Gunnell --- You know how she can -------- 2 per cent off March first -- Class Prophecy, came to her ears. Oh, I see, said Miss Garrett. “That Class Prophecy forgotten again ! So this is the first of March, that explains ■■ ■ . They must have received the same scorching lecture that we did in 1922 - No responsibility - Well, I won- der how they all did turn out? I shall soon find out. She took from her pocket, and fitted to her forehead, a small instrument. Pearl Langtwaet certainly exceeded our greatest expectations of her when she perfected this mental telepather. She closed her eyes for a moment and an expression of great surprise passed over her face. Can it be possible that our Bobbie Neilson is now in Hades teaching the worthy Nero how to really play the fiddle? Doris Dean has become famous by writing a book entitled, ‘Where to Put the Pep in Pepper.’ We remember her as the ‘Class Spirit’ of the Senior Class. And there is |o. A. Smith, the poor girl. She was killed at the Portland fair in 1925 by a boy riding a tricycle. Arreta Robinson is conducting a school in Montreal, Canada, to help bashful boys get over their bashfulness. She deemed this a much needed necessity in Grants Pass High School several years ago and has taken pity on the boys up there. Gladys Roberts and Eunice Hillis are in Honolulu trying to find out why the lava is hot. They said they did not know what the cause was, but soon expected to discover it. “Art Close is now working in a Hula Hula show at the occupation of combing the grass skirts of the dancers. He says he has no complaint against his work which proves to be very profitable. i2 Rheta Forbis has completed her revision of the ‘Whiz-Bang’ and ‘Fun’ magazines. She says these books are now advocated for study in high schools. Susan Tolin. who is principal of the Jones Creek High School is using them with much success.” Andrew Clayton and Eugene Murphy have recently organized an 'Anti-Dancing Union’ and are doing a splendid work along this line. Mr. Murphy is managing the publicity side of the campaign, touring the U. S., giving talks to high school boys and girls against dancing. Mr. Clayton is managing a JazzCure sanitarium and this institution is furthering industrial progress by putting the patients to work making cubebs. This work is being superintended by Ted Randle.” Helen Marsh and Thelma Shehan have bought the publishing house which puts out the popular magazines. Snappy Stories, and the Whirl-Wind. They are putting these magazines on a better basis as sellers, adding much spice to the stories. Abe Tolin is advertising daily for men and women to work in his wigmaking establishment. Mr. Tolin’s motto is: ‘My experience with wigs has made my success.’ Mr. Tolin has supplied some of the leading society ladies of Fruitdale with his invincible wigs, among them are Miss Jo. F. Smith, who went bald due to bobbing her hair while in high school. Miss Smith is running a ballroom, restaurant, and cabaret which is located near the powder house. Eva Allen is another who grew bald-headed. It is said that she got this way while worrying over men.” “Mildred Estabrook and Eileen Keeline are at Afaghanistan trying to find out how they raise umbrellas. They are having great success. “Corlyss Courtney has just completed a very interesting book entitled ‘The Beauties of Red Hair. This book is very popular, especially with Keith Edger-ton, who, we hear, was the first person to inform her that her hair was beautiful. Wilma Sparlin hired Larry Lucas, who is now a cow-puncher, to rope her a man, but somehow he got tangled in the rope and—aw — you know what happened.” “Clair Brown is now a famous electrical engineer. He has just lately put long skirts on all currents, to decrease the shock.” Dyke Luckett has become a great poet. His latest work is ‘Ode to a Moonlight Night,’ which begins: '1 love thee, O Moonshine.’ He claims his success is due to studying ’Manly.' Dorothy Howard has become a great chemist. Her latest formula is a spray to be used against ‘Ford Bugs.’ ” Kathryn Willis is living in Montana where she owns and operates a large ‘Grass-Hopper Farm.’ She sells the hoppers to the fisheries and keeps the grass for the stock. ‘“Tug’ Ross is a preacher in Three Pines, his latest sermon is Take Heed That Thou Dost Not Stumble Over a Chair When Coming to Thy Home Early in the Morning.' 33 His church employs a jazz orchestra composed of some of the old '22' Seniors. Freeman Taylor is the leader, the other members are Alice Loughridge playing the shoe horn. Norman Kendall rattling the ivories, and Beulah Hussey on her latest invention, the chemical trombone, and Cecil Boucher tickling the soprano tuba.' Tug's sermon proved very fruitful because when the invitation was given for sinners to come to the front. Bud Knox was the first to appear. Others who were converted that evening were Florence LeRoy, Leola Ferris and Orville Camp. ' Card Knapp has edited a book entitled ‘How to Get the Most Racket Out of a Chevrolet.' His book is being extensively read in auto-mechanics classes of high schools. Waldo Baker has invented a hair tonic which will grow hair on Mexican Hairless dogs. He discovered this famous tonic while in high school experimenting on how to grow mustaches and side-burns. Katherine Knox spends her time in the Nevada mountains hunting flying fish for Floyd Bailey's Millinery Shop in Merlin. The wings of the fish are used for ornaments on the hats. Melba Macy has won the international debate series. The question was: Resolved, that women should propose.’ She takes the affirmative of the question because men are so awfully slow. Hontz Johnston is serving a life sentence in Sing Sing for gaffing three trout in Gilbert Creek. His old friend, Clifford Kiphart, who is now game warden showed no mercy for Hontz, and the result is life imprisonment. Fleeta Turner is also serving a term in prison, but her term is but ten years, for writing a book on The Benefits of Moonshine. She thought she was writing about the rays of light from the moon, but the authorities thought otherwise. “James Henrikson is a professor in the Utah Agricultural College, and is experimenting on how to cross potatoes and onions in order to make soup, but so far he has not succeeded because the onion is continually getting in the potatoes’ eyes. The famous 'Monte Woodin is now in a technical school teaching the pupils how to go to sleep in class, and wake up at any time that they wish and not get laughed at. Violet Best has recently filed a breach of promise against Tom McKinstry. This base deceiver induced his twin, Newell, to take his place just before the wedding. The case was dismissed, however, as Miss Best failed to identify the right gentleman when the case came up in court. Both of these young men made a decided hit in the biggest song of the season.‘He Couldn't Help It.”’ Bertha Calhoun is now operating a beauty parlor in the village of Hugo, Oregon. Her specialty is applying powder so that it will stick. Her motto is ‘Save the surface and you save all.’ ’’ Margaret Rengstorff is now working in a bakery shop cutting holes out of doughnuts and nailing crusts on bread.” 34 Wilda Huggerth.who is Lydia Limburger. is the leading lady in‘Lonesome Luke's Latest Love Lyric.’ She is touring the country and is becoming famous. “Mary Reed recently undertook the task of outclassing Sidney Smith in his caricature of the Gump family, but she came to the conclusion that she had missed her calling and is now doing interior decorating for the 'Itta Bitta Nutti sorority for the insane. Her talent is very remarkable and well appreciated by the inmates of the institution. Helen Lister, the world's foremost 'bugologist,' is searching in China for a bug from which she believes an oil may be extracted which will rid girls of all hair-net worry. Miss Lister lost all of her fortune so she couldn t buy any more hair-nets and to aid humanity she is making this search her life-work. Freda Hiatt is now Mayor of Dimmick. Through the efforts of Miss Hiatt the city is free from bootleggers and crooks. The beautiful parks and general improvements throughout the city as a whole are due to her able administration. Miss Josephine Isham is saleswoman for the Ernest Wardrip Airplane factory. Miss Isham plans on resigning her position to conduct an exploration to the center of the earth next fall. “Miss Malinda Ford owns the largest hotel at the South Pole. She has just painted a masterpiece named 'The Antarctic Summer Sun at Midnight.’ “Bill Ament is an eminent New York physician. He has won great fame with his effective remedy against spring fever. It is guaranteed to cure, or your money back. Well, that Senior Class surely turned out better than any other class I have ever known, exclaimed Miss Garrett as she finished her reminiscence, and removed the telepather from her head. (Compiled from the individual prophecies of the class.) CLASS WILL |-7ET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS: That we J the Senior Class of Grants Pass High School, in the city of Grants Pass, County of Josephine. State of Oregon, United States of America, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-two, being possessed of sane mind and acting under no undue influence do declare, ordain and devise this Last Will and Testament allotting to the faculty and members of the school special gifts which we do deem will be to their great benefit. First: To Grants Pass High in general we do leave a list of all our mistakes to be righted, and a standard of loyalty for which all classes may struggle, and, we hope, attain. Also, we leave our. super-abnormal ability to gain and hold whatever we strive for. in hopes that some future generation will obtain a gym.

With Miss Sinclair as class adviser, Wesley Eggers, President; Jack Murphy. Vice President; Vera Robinson, Secretary, and Virginia Green, Treasurer, we started our climb upward. Our men entered into football with spirit. The night of the football rally we won the prize for the best stunt of the evening. We were entertained by the Sophs in the fall and returned their gracious hospitality in January with a party at the High School. The arrival of spring was celebrated by a hike. Although only sixty-five the next year in number, we became “frisky Sophs with Merle Rimer, President; Vera Robinson. Vice President; Ruth Nichols, Secretary; Virginia Green, Treasurer, and Miss Dahlberg as our worthy class adviser. We were greatly saddened during the first part of our school year by the death of our classmate, Kenneth Woodin. Many victories were won by our girls' basketball team. We entertained the Freshmen at the High School, and they gave us a return party at the Woodman Hall. On Washington s birthday, we entertained the assembly with a patriotic program. The year 1921-22 began with a membership of sixty-five, with Mrs. Stearns as our class adviser. The officers were. Kohath Grout, President; Jack Murphy, Vice President; Margaret Hair, Secretary; Ruth Nichols, Treasurer, and Don Megargel. Sergeant-at-Arms. We formally initiated the Freshmen, and again won first prize for the best football rally stunt. The girls gave the boys a weenie roast at Savage Rapids, October 18; this was returned later by a party. An entertainment was given by the class on December 19. to help finance the Toka. Next came a “hot dog luncheon for the benefit of the Toka fund. A party was given the Seniors in March with games, entertainment, and refreshments. Our great effort this year was to put out the “Annual with greater success than any other class has achieved, and we really feel quite well satisfied with the result.

P. H. S. one hundred strong on September twelfth, nineteen twenty. We soon organized and elected Hayden Tucker as President, Iris Burns as Vice President, Irene Hyde, Treasurer, and Clara Harbeck, Secretary. Under the splendid leadership of Mr. Wardrip, as class adviser, we had a very successful year, taking two hikes and showing pep and enthusiasm in every way. In nineteen twenty - one we again entered the High School, this time as haughty “Sophs, and, in organizing, chose Chester Edgerton. President; Jack Tobin, Vice President; Arda Isham, Secretary, and William Madison, Treasurer, with Iris Burns as Representative to the Student Body. One of the first ways in which we showed our “pep this year was by selling over fifty dollars worth of Chautauqua tickets, winning a nine foot pennant as a prize, and presenting this pennant to the Student Body. We were represented in football, basketball, and baseball, winning third place in the latter. Again our spirit showed up when huge “Twenty-fours appeared at three different times in the snow on Mount Baldy. We see many mistakes in looking back over the year but we still maintain we're the “Best Class Ever. teO Si Little tiny atoms, little parva germa Make the endless heavens and the terra firma. So our daily lessons, though very short they be. Make an education sound from A to Z. IK THE CLASS OF ’24 In the year of 1920, Marching to the High School door; Was seen a long prosession, Twas the Class of 24. That year we were called green Freshies, But now we re Soph-o-mores; We taught the Frosh” good manners. The Class of 24. The class that sold most tickets, The class that did sell more; The class that won the pennant Was the Class of 24. The class that has the most PEP.” The class with the highest score; The class that’s always in the lead Is the Class of 24. — Paul Allen. They told us not to worry. Not to sit up nights and cram. Not to feel a sense of hurry In taking our exam. And so, we didn’t worry. Didn’t sit up nights and cram, Didn't feel a sense of hurry. But we flunked in our exam. 49 SOPHOMORE CLASS ROLL GIRLS Ainsworth. Zoe Allen, Lucy Andrews, Edythe Batman, Edna Bunch. Elizabeth Bunch. Clarice Burns, Iris Clayton. Doris Condit. Doris Coon.

We were a comparatively clever looking bunch, of the ordinary intelligence, acting the part of Freshman in exactly the way Frosh are expected to do. At our first class meeting, we elected our officers as follows: Milton Green. President; Albert Smith, Vice President; Ruth Newman. Secretary; Kenneth Tompkins. Treasurer, and Harriett Clapp, Representative to the Student Body Council. We selected Miss Yannke as our class adviser. Blue and gold were chosen for our class colors. The Seniors received us cordially at the annual Senior Reception, and in due time we were initiated by the ]uniors. Later the Sophomores entertained us with a Hallowe'en party, at which entertainment our initiation was completed, and on December 2nd, a return party was given to the Sophomores. On January 12th. our pennant made its first appearance in the assembly, and was keenly approved of by the Freshmen, and the rest of the school. (???) Two members of the class. John Hendren and John Weiss, made the first football team. We feel that making the first team by these two boys has reflected honor on the entire class.

At the end of our first week we were initiated by the Seniors and sentenced to four years of hard mental labor in High School. Due to Special arrangement, on the part of Mr. Mishler, we were allowed to take four subjects. We were t h e objects of envy by all the former classes when this was known. We were also given permission to organize as a class. We immediately held a meeting and the result was that Curtis Cole was elected President although the fact that he was exceedingly bashful was well known. Aubrey Walker Both a boys’ and a girls’ basketball team was organized. The girls played the Freshman team three games and won the second and last, proving their superiority beyond a doubt. The boys also played the Freshmen, but as each team won a game, it remains to be seen which is the better team. So, although we are laughed at and there are few of us, we bid fair to outshine all preceding Sub-Frosh Classes. Here’s to the Class of January '26. Rah!

Education is the fitting of an individual to meet and master his environment Education will help one to understand the world in which he lives and will make life, character, and service seem greater to him. In college the learning one acquires is not so important; it is the training the mind receives in acquiring the said knowledge. What he learns will be forgotten but the power of learning will never be lost. With a trained mind he will always know where to go for the information wanted. Education gives to one the power of attention, the ability to concentrate and hold his faculties focused on one subject until he has reached the conclusion which satisfies. The man who knows where he is going and why he is going will always succeed, for the world will always stand aside for such men. Education also gives to one the power of observation and appreciation. Men traveling around the world see different things. The educated man sees the widest circle and enjoys many things passed by by some as worthless. The world is what we make it and a man’s education may be measured by the width and depth and delicacy of his appreciation. Furthermore, education puts a man into fellowship with all ages. It makes a man at home with any class and brings him in contact with life at many points. Thus he is many-sided, and should he gain wealth, he will know how to make use of it. All these things aid one in being or becoming happy. Why not seek for happiness ? Go to college ! SUCCESS The ambition of every High School student is that he may be a Success in some line of work in life. Different people have divergent ideas as to what is meant by Success, and to some it merely means the accumulation of money. Whatever may be our definition of Success, the only way in which any problem of great importance was ever solved, was by constant and persistent effort. Theodore Roosevelt said, “There is one lesson each of us learns as he grows older, that it is not what the man works at, it is the way in which he works at it.” Shakespeare says. Did'st thou never hear that things ill got had ever bad Success?” So, another habit of Success will be honesty and fair dealing to others, and this lesson cannot be learned too thoroughly or too early in our school life. 57 Another habit of success is cheerfulness or hopefulness. Grouchiness and ill-temper are serious handicaps, and these can be easily conquered in youth, but are habits which soon conquer us, unless we overcome them. So, persistent effort, discrimination in judgments, fair dealings, and cheerfulness. are some of the habits which will assist us, as High School students, to attain Success in life. HABITS Habits are like cords of steel Binding us for woe or weel The habit of success should be formed long before one goes into business. Imagine that the school room is a business office. Teacher is the manager. Now the manager in business and the teacher in school are likely to do some things that you do not like. Most people take hold of the wrong handle at times. If you spend any time thinking about what they failed to do, or did wrong, you have lost that time, and you have allowed something to grow inside that will put you back. Do not forget this. Time spent in complaint or sulkiness is lost time. Time spent in boosting the good part is time gained. Begin to be a success in business by boosting your own school, your own club, your own class. Boost yourself. That is the only way to get the success habit. “LIFE IS WHAT WE MAKE IT” Life is a burden, but it is imposed by God. What you make of it, it will be to you — Whether a millstone about your neck. Or a diadem upon your brow. 1 ake it up bravely; Bear it on joyfully; Lay it down triumphantly. All about us there is much heedless strife, worry, misunderstanding, and sorrow. Much of this is the result of carelessness or thoughtlessness. On the other hand, we know how nice it is to meet people of courage with a willingness to help, who pervade their surroundings with cheerfulness. These people have personalities that make them winning leaders. The Senior Class will, in the near future, be bidding good-bye to the school which they love. Some will have their work well up and will enjoy their last days of High School life as they never did before. Life to them is what they have made it. Others will have a hard struggle to reach the goal and will be haunted more or less with a straining worry which will make them uncomfortable even when they are supposed to be enjoying themselves. Life to them is what THEY have made it. Cheerfulness is a quality that stands anyone in good stead. We can go around all the time with a long and downcast countenance, but that doesn't do 58 PAGE MISSING PAGE MISSING 61 Eaman Edgerton Koss To Mr. Eaman. our worthy coach, we extend our hearty thanks. Mr. Eaman proved himself to be a true friend to the boys and was willing at all times to do his part. The improvement over the 1920 season is largely due to his efforts as coach. KEITH EDGER 1 ON - - Football Manager and End, Second Team Keith Edgerton gained prominence as a second team pig-skin molester by his unerring intrepidity, and, as an end it is difficult to find his equal in the field of football. Not only is he an athlete, but a manager of competent ability. At Ed-gerton s instigation many exciting football games were played on our local High School field. TUGLAS ROSS - Captain and Left Tackle, First Team “Tug’s experience combined with his weight and fight made him a hard man to buck against. He was well able to put the fight in the team, and could always give his men some encouragement. As a player. Tug was a tower of strength of the slashing kind, either at tackle, or full. When yardage was needed, Tug got the ball. 62 Bailey Weiss Baker Brown FLOYD BAILEY .... Quarterback. First Team Floyd did the head work for the first team. He is a deliberate and calculating field general, an accurate kicker, and a dependable safety. When anyone met with Bailey” they knew they had met something, because he is a hard hitter and a sure tackier. JOHN WEISS............................................Right Tackle. First Team John Wiss with his one hundred eighty-five pounds of loyal G. P. H. S. fighting gained a reputation for tearing holes in the enemy lines. As this is John s first year at football, we will expect great things from him in his next three years of High School football. WALDO BAKER ..... Halfback. First Team Baker has held down the position of halfback for the past two seasons, and is one of the most dependable men on the team. He is a sure tackle and a cool-headed player, possessing the indomitable fighting spirit that goes to make a winning team. CLAIR BROWN ..... Guard, First Team This was Brown's first year at football, but he showed the fight. He made the first team and was one of the best players He played guard and his weight sure filled the position. hi I ucker Green Kimer Megargel HAYDEN TUCKER .... Tackle, Second Team Although Hayden did not make a regular berth on the first team because of injuries, he was the gamest fighter on the field, and he never let up from the “kick-off until the final whistle blew. MILTON GREEN .... Tackle, Second Team Milt, star of the second team, is a promising prospect for the 1923 first team. He issued fast and well applied end work. We hope he will develop into as fast a first team player. MERLE RIMER ... Center, First Team. Captain Elect Rimer played center on the first team and was a good player. He received a a few knockouts during the season, but he kept up his fighting spirit to the top notch. DONALD MEGARGEL .... Guard, Second Team “ Megargel, the noise of the second team, managed to stop many a credited player and made large openings in the opponents' line. Correctly speaking, he was a “dark horse” of the season and emerged with high laurels. 64 • t Woodin Luckelt Clayton Taylor DONALD WOODIN .... Halfback. First Team “Monty was the star player of the season. He is a long bundle of grit, always fighting and calling for more. He is a clever and tricky runner; a dead sure tackier; very aggressive, and a wonder at advancing the ball. Much to our loss, Monty received injuries while playing with Ashland and was laid up for the rest of the season. DYKE LUCKETT .... Right Guard. First Team Dyke Luckett. the little one hundred eighty pound guard, held his position to the best of his ability. Lud used his weight to good advantage in stopping center rushes and in opening up holes for his team mates. ANDREW CLAYTON - - - Quarterback. Second Team Andy held down the quarter position of the second string. He also holds the championship for being knocked out more than any other man in the squad. FREEMAN TAYLOR .... Tackle. First Team Freezer is a player of the dashing type. He is hard to catch, on the offensive, and is impossible to run away from, on the defensive. He snags passes like a veteran and is a sure tackier. Freezer also subbed at half, where he exhibited an equal amount of skill. ( .■ EUGENE MURPHY .... Fullback. Firs. Team Gene Murphy, although unable to play in all the games on account of injury, showed his fighting spirit and ability to pick holes in the center of the line and then hit them. THOMAS McKINSTRY .... Linesman, First Team Tom held his position during the season and although he did not get into every game, he was a consistent player and one who could be depended on at all times. CLIFf-ORD KIPHAR T .... Captain, Second Team Kip was the captain of the second team, playing in the backfield. and was the star of the team. He finished practice one night with a broken shoulder and was forced to stop for the rest of the season. ALBERT SMITH..............................................End. Second Team “Pete has proved himself a valuable man. Although he weighs only one hundred and twenty-five pounds, he has made himself one hundred and twenty-five pounds of football fight. He has three years in High School yet. and we expect a surprise next year. I his is hard to say about most players, but he has certainly earned it. Hend ren Tolin Hillis Swinden JOHN HENDREN ..... End, First Team Not enough can be said of “Johnny Hendren in regard to his football ability. We all owe a great deal to this small, slender Freshman, and at this time fake space to compliment him. ABRAM TOLIN ..... Linesman, First Team “Abe Tolin held the line at right tackle on both the first and second teams, alternately. Abe has gained a wonderful reputation as a necktie tackier, seldom missing his man in his aeroplane flights. It is almost impossible to put a play over him. as he is right there to stop it. MALCOLM HILLIS .... Guard, Second Team Malcolm is another lower-classman that played the game. He is good material for coming years. He has a temper that is not easily aroused, but when it is, it shows results. GAIL SWINDEN ..... Center, Second Team Swinden was late in getting started on the football field, but has shown during his time that he is able to hold his own. It is hoped that he will start earlier in the game so that he can have all the points that are necessary for making a good Crockett McKinstry Hillis Boucher GARRETT CROCKETT ... Fullback. Second Team “Crockett” came out at the first of the season with the real fight. He played fullback and could hit the line. He made a name for himself at kicking goals, and did his best to keep up the spirit of the team and win the games. NEWELL McKINSTRY .... End. First Team Newell, although not so fast and flashy a player as some, was a steady plugger and was always there when he was needed. CHARLES HILLIS .... Left Half, Second Team Hillis has shown himself a valuable man in the backfield. He has a wonderful fighting spirit which suceeded in getting him through the lines for many a yard. He is valuable material for the coming football season. CECIL BOUCHER .... Halfback, Second Team “Doc, we guess, will never lose his grin, but that grin is not always cheerful. He succeeded in running for many a touchdown. The team will feel the absence of Doc” next season. 6H Evelyn Anderson Miss Laird Vera Kobinson GIRLS' BASKETBALL Miss Laird_______________________________ Coach Evelyn Anderson_______________________ Captain Arda lsham__________________________ Forward Margaret Rengstorff _ Treasurer ________ Forward Vera Robinson _______ Manager____________ .Guard Dorothy Dodge_____________________________ Guard Dorothy Egger ......................... Center Doris Dean ...................... Side-Center Girls' Basketball was our most important sport this year. Although we lost more games than we won. our team never lost heart and continued to take a fresh start after each set-back. With Miss Laird as coach, we met early in the year and elected Evelyn Anderson, Captain; Vera Robinson, Manager, and Margaret Rengstorff, treasurer. The basketball girls feel deeply indebted for the use of Epworth Hall which they were permitted to use, this year. Girls who won letters are Evelyn Anderson, Doris Dean, Dorothy Dodge, Arda lsham, Margaret Rengstorff, Vera Robinson and Dorothy Egger. 70 Dorothy Dodge Margaret Rengstorff Dorothy Dean Dorothy Dodge Margaret Rengstorff Dorothy Dean SCORE Roseburg 7______________________Grants Pass 27 Medford 28________________ - Grants Pass 8 Medford 29____________________ Grants Pass 7 Roseburg 16___________________- Grants Pass 15 Ashland 43................. ...

Asa result. Art Close was elected Captain and Kohath Grout, Manager. Due to the stress of other outside activities, Kohath Grout found it impossible to carry on his duties as Manager. His resignation was followed by the election of Thomas McKinstry. Practice was begun as soon as the weather would permit and there was a fine showing of candidates. Practice games were secured with Rogue River at Grants Pass March 31 and at Rogue River the following Friday. Both games were victories for us and showed Coach Eaman the weak spots. The team went to Glendale April 18 and won a hard-fought game, 20-16. The following Saturday Glendale came here and were overwhelmed, 38-4. The first big game of the season was played with Medford April 28 on our own field. The game was a tight one, with Grants Pass ahead a good share of the time, but Medford finally nosed out ahead, 15-13. The contest was featured by the good pitching of Hendren and Close, but lack of backing at the critical moments lost the game. The schedule for the rest of the season is as follows: May 5, Ashland vs Grants Pass at Ashland; May 6, Roseburg vs Grants Pass at Grants Pass; May 13, Medford vs Grants Pass at Medford; May 19, Ashland vs Grants Pass at Grants Pass.

At the close of the program, each student in the High School was treated to a pretty box of candy, the gift of the Seniors. CHAUTAUQUA FESTIVAL The Chautauqua Festival under the direction of the Ellison-White people was a decided success both financially and intellectually. It was held in the High School Auditorium dating from November 25 to 30. They gave us five successive nights of very high-class entertainment. All the proceeds were divided between the different class treasuries according to the number of tickets each class sold. WAYS AND MEANS ENTERTAINMENT A musical program was given before the assembly on February 15, 1922 by the “Ways and Means Committee of the Toka Staff. The object of this entertainment was to raise money for the High School Annual, the Toka. An admission of 10 cents was charged. The program included The Cornet Trio; Dance by the Sunbonnet Girls; the reading, “A Minute’s Rest; Vocal Solo by Anna Neilson. and Selections from II Travatore. 71 The Girls Chorus, which is made up of sixty voices, is again under the able direction of Mrs. Gunnell.

The girls also gave pleasing numbers at other programs. Another interesting program rendered by the Girls’ Chorus and the Orchestra was the Annual Music Festival given in the City Park, on the evening of May 9th. 74 ORCHESTRA The orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Gunnell, has done splendid work this year. The concert given by this organization showed that they have mastered not only “jazz, but classical music. They also appeared at all High School programs and at local entertainments such as the Minstrel Show, the Ladies Auxiliary Concert, and the Teachers' Institute. BAND One of the most popular organizations of the High School is the Boys’ Band which is composed of twenty-five members. The boys appeared at the football rallies, and their pep and jazz aided greatly in making these occasions successful. STRINGED INSTRUMENT CLUB The Girls' Stringed Instrument Club was organized late in the year, and is open to any girl who can play a stringed instrument. The club has not done any concert work this season, but as the girls have shown unusual interest, we expect great things of them next year. 75 FOOTBALL RALLY THE SCHOOL SPIRIT was first shown at a snappy rally the night before the first football game. The Frosh had an immense bonfire, and during the first part of the evening each of the classes pulled off its stunt. After this the Student Body serpentined down-town, giving the townsmen a little entertainment along the line of pep. FROSH INITIATION One Wednesday afternoon of the first semester the Juniors initiated the “Frosh. It was a delightful scene when the boys and girls of the green class told the assembly their names and then walked across the stage, arrayed in green neckties and hair-ribbons. A bread-and-milk contest was then put on by six girls. The prize, which was a “lollypop, was given to Bernice Everton, who rightfully claimed ownership. The boys, not wanting to be out-done, had a pie-eating contest, which was won by Wendel Grout, and, after receiving the prize, which was a baby’s bottle he decided it was quite pleasant to be a Freshman. SUB-FROSH The Sub-Frosh were initiated into the orders of G. P. H. S. on Friday afternoon, January 26. A court was held, and the girls of the class were cross-examined by the judge. Miss Helen Lister. The boys of the class were obliged to shine the shoes of upper-classmen, and also to sing the song, “ Nobody Knows How Green I Am. Having been duly initiated, the Sub-Freshmen are now loyal members of the Grants Pass High School. SCROLL STAFF STUNT The Student Body had a pleasant surprise, on Friday afternoon, of the second edition of the Scroll. Doris Dean played paper boy, and advertised the Scroll to many prominent people, who happened by. Much enthusiasm and spirit was shown over the Scroll, which has been carried on throughout the year by loyal members of the Student Body. TOKA STAFF On an afternoon in November the Toka Staff put on a stunt not soon to be forgotten by those who witnessed it. The different members of the staff came out on the stage and spoke original bits of poetry referring to their particular interest in putting out “our Annual. Much enthusiasm was aroused, and rapid progress was made on the Toka at once. 76 — 77 TTik 78 SENIOR RECEPTION THE SENIORS started the ball of entertainment rolling when they entertained the school with the annual Senior reception. A program was given. Refreshments were served at about 10 o'clock, and the under-classmen went away with a warmer feeling toward G. P. H. S. SOPHOMORE-FRESHMAN PARTY The Sophomores gave the Freshmen a Hallowe’en party at the High School on October 28. The lower hall was artistically decorated with colored leaves, pumpkins, and corn stalks. I he earlier part of the evening was occupied by taking the guests on a spooky trip through Witchland, which caused much merriment. Later a two-act play was presented, entitled, “The Clever Match Makers. after which refreshments were served. FRESHMAN PARTY i The first party that the Class of '25 ever gave, was an entertainment for the Sophomores, in the form of a masquerade. The guests were entertained by a series of six stunts. The Freshmen then presented a one-act play for the entertainment of their guests. Following the play, all the guests joined in the grand march and later partook of refreshments, at which time the recognition of some Senior boys caused a little excitement. JUNIOR PICNIC After a very exciting contest in paying the class dues, the Junior girls lost, and as a result, gave the boys a picnic under the pines at Savage Rapids. A lunch of coffee, weiners, cookies and buns was served at a late hour. The lunior boys, out of the goodness of their hearts, gave the girls a return party at the Rogue River Grange Hall a few weeks after the splendid party at Savage Rapids. THE SOPHOMORE HIKE In October a friendly contest was put on by the Sophomores to see which half of the class could collect its class dues the sooner, the losing side to furnish an entertainment for the winners. The result was a delightful hike to the Dam. JUNIOR-SENIOR PARTY The annual Junior-Senior party was given March 17, with a good attendance of the members of both classes. The exciting and thrilling games of “Three Deep and “The Miller Boy were much enjoyed, and these were followed by a well-presented program which consisted of a dance by Bessie Graham in Oriental and Hawaiian costumes; a one-act play presented by Ruth Nichols and Virginia Green, and a solo by Anna Neilson. HO AUTO MECHANICS COOKING CLASS 81 DRAMATICS The class in Public Speaking numbered forty this year, making two divisions necessary. The work was divided into four divisions—Parliamentary Law. Debate. Public Speaking, and Dramatics. The Friday recitations were given over to two societies; the students having entire sharge of the work at these times. Some very interesting programs were given during the year, demonstrating the interest and originality of some of the members of the class. Of special interest were the two-character, one-act play. “ Theater Tickets,” dramatized and presented by Ruth Nichols and Virginia Green, and the description of Princess Mary's wedding as planned by a committee of which Lula Garrett was chairman. I he Courtship of Miles Standish, presented as a moving picture while the story was read, was the feature of another program. Members of the class presented the following plays very creditably; Men-nemen. a three-act comedy for girls was the central attraction of the Toka benefit. Overtones, a one-act play was presented before the annual meeting of the Southern Oregon Federated Women’s Clubs. Spreading the News, “Oh. It’s So Sudden. and Joint Owners in Spain were given as a dramatic evening. MATHEMATICS CLUB FORMED On the ninth of Nov-ember, 1921, twenty-nine students of the High School met under the direstion of Miss Cowan, for the purpose of forming a Mathematics Club. Lula Garrett was elected President; Roy Clarlce.Vice President; Beulah Hussey, Secretary, and Newell McKinstry, Treasurer. A constitution was drawn up and signed by those present. The main points of the constitution are: I. Name. The Pythagorean Club. II. Object. To advance the study of Mathematics. III. Qualifications of members. Sec. I. Must have a year and a half of Mathematics. Sec. 2. All members must sign constitution and pay initiation fee of 25c and regular dues of 50c. IV. Meetings. They shall be held on the second Wednesday of each month. Since then, the membership has been increased, and the members have come together five times, each time enjoying the mathematics program, the games and the refreshments. DEBATE Interest in debate was unusually keen this year, and in December twelve competitors tried out for the team. After due deliberation the judges selected for the affirmative of the first team, Corlyss Courtney and Helen Lister. Donley Barnes and Lulu Garrett were the choice for the negative team. The district question for debate this year was: Resolved, That the principles of the open shop should be adopted in American Industries. The results of the first debate, which was held with Glendale, were extremely encouraging, both of the Grants Pass teams winning the decisions. The next debate, which was held with Ashland, resulted in a tie. The Grants Pass affirmatives then met the Ashland negatives at Medford, the decision being given to Grants Pass. Grants Pass, now Southern Oregon champion, began the study of the state question. Resolved. That a graduated income tax should be made a feature of Los Vigilantes the tax system of Oregon. In the preliminaries, the Grants Pass team, composed of Lulu Garrett and Corlyss Courtney, defeated Klamath Falls, thus making Grants Pass champion of Southern and Central Oregon. Roseburg was defeated on the same question, and on May fifth the team met Salem at Eugene in the semi-finals. LOS VIGILANTES UENOS NOCHES a ' Los Vigilantes...........Los Vigilantes” is a Spanish Club, formed by the second-year Spanish students. The purpose of this organization is to assist those taking this subject, by increasing their vocabulary and their knowledge of Spanish. Spanish is spoken entirely during the business session. However, foreign games arouse much enthusiasm in the gathering. A program consisting of Spanish music, readings, and plays, is presented after the business is concluded. The officers of this club are as follows: Senor James Henrikson, el presi-dente; Senorita Corlyss Courtney, el vice-presidente; Senorita Josephine F. Smith, el sargento de armor, Senorita Louise Hammerbacher, la secretaria; Senorita Josephine F. Smith, el presidente de la comision: Senor Floyd Bailey, el tesorero. THE GRANTS PASS STUDENT BODY ASSOCIATION Tuglas Ross .........................._. ._...... President Eugene Murphy .................................. Vice President Katherine Knox____________________________________ _ Secretary Clara Harbeclc . . ----........_____________ Treasurer The Student Body has had a most harmonious and profitable year. Much honor is due the President, who has conducted the meetings in a very business-like manner. Financially, the association has also been a success, a large per cent of the students having paid their dues because, perhaps, of the half holiday granted the class who first collected these. The money has been used for the boys and girls athletics, the debates and other enterprises, such as buying dishes for the use of the school. A new and much more satisfactory constitution has been drawn up by the Council and accepted by the Student Body. Much of the success of the advantageous faculty rulings this year was due to their endorsement by the Student Body as a whole, and the response and good order of the students has shown how greatly appreciated were these privileges granted to them. Under the management of the Student Body, several entertainments have been brought to Grants Pass this year, and we also have had the advantage of hearing several outside speakers. Thus the year's work in the Student Body is a source of satisfaction to both students and faculty. tSsO S If a body see a body Flunking in a Quizz. If a body help a body.
