The first five years of my school life held little excitement except that of studying and playing with dolls. . When I entered the fifth grade I began to notice my male companions as Well as the girls. However, I little realized, in spite of my observations, that, short, fat Russell Geil, who appeared to be in love Cwithl? Margie Latta, would someday be a great athle- tic star for G. H. S. Neither did I think that Iva McLain, Who was characterized by her husky lungs on the Basket Ball floor would turn out to be Granville High Sch0ol's best singer. - , On a certain night after the preliminary Oratorical Contest held at recital hall, I was indeed proud that I belonged to the class of Green and White. Freshman A ! do you remember the day when We went to school to take the final Algebra Exam, only to joyfully find out that Harvey had excused the Whole class. Well, I do. This is merely an example of the brain Work We have exhibited. In the fall of 1924 We assembled as Sophomores in the New High School Building. We are now nearing the close of what we consider a successful year. Many changes have taken place-a number of our friends have left for other schools but in return many new ones have come. In a short time We will reluctantly pass into the Junior Year, for We realize that each year brings us close to the end of our happy days in Gran- ville High School. -W. J., S. B. and F. L. 27

First Row-Stalmaker, Montgomery, Ackley, Megaw, Kearns. An excellent record has been made this year by the Junior Class. It seems that the Juniors have shown their power of leadership in all the departments of school life. Their prowess in athletics is demonstrated by the fact that they have six football letter men, five basketball letter men, five regulars in baseball, and three staunch and and reliable members of the track team. All of the four Juniors on the girls' basketball team were mentioned in the all-county selections. The Juniors have distinguished themselves in the ticket selling contests. In the fall, they were the llrst to have 100 per cent in the sale of football tickets. This spring the Junior Class was one of the three classes to have 100 per cent in buying tickets for Miss Peters' concert. In this contest, Raymond Montgomery, a Junior, won first prize for the most tickets sold. With Raymond again at the helm, with three hundred subscrip- tions sold, they were on the winning side inthe Blue and White subscription drive. The Juniors proved a big factor on the success of the Dramatic Club. Bernard Rogers was president and there were two or more Juniors in the cast of every play pre- sented. In the operetta three leading parts were held by Juniors. A Junior, Abe Flory, by name, carried off first honors in the county oratorical con- test. In the Thrift Theme Contest, Margaret Thomas and Jere Ackley won first and second prizes respectively. Nine out of the nineteen members of the Blue and White Staff were Juniors and they performed their duties faithfully. ' -J ere Ackley and Margaret Thomas. 26

HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS Early in September, 1916, twenty-five children marched in a decorous lockstep to jail, and spent a happy year there with Miss McCafferty. Once when a man was put in jail, we all had a shaky feeling, but little Franklin Moon encouraged us by saying, Don't be scared. I have my little pop gun. The next year our journeys were to the basement of the old school building. To teach us thrir nz, that year, we handed our money to Miss McCafferty who saved it until we purchased a flag. We had most peculiar ways of showing our anger there. A cer- tain Jacky, of whom we have heard nothing since the third grade, once became so pro- voked at the teacher that he kicked his shoes off on to the teacher's desk. -In the fourth grade Miss Ackley led us through one of our most delightful years. We all agree that she has a most happy way of combining study and pleasure for everyone's benefit. Lhe sixth grade held unknown terrors for the idlers, we soon found, for Miss Hale could use the Ye Olde Hickory to the best advantage. This, however, did not spoil our fun for we had many picnics and bacon bats. The seventh and eighth years, with Miss McLees and Miss Ackley, were very busy ones. We were represented by five members in the State Music Memory Contest, and Shelton Carlisle came home with a prize. We had several class parties and a Christ- mas Tree. The spelling and history contests were well attended and all three prizes were carried off by our class. -Frances Guckert 28
