Randolph-Macon Woman ' s College University of Virginia Summer School Blaclcstone Institute Latin Report Of The Messengers To The Earth Delivered by Professor Tegelet at a Special Meeting of the Marsian Scientific Club Held at Rougestar, Canal Area, Mars, June 19, 1921 [NOTE—This issue of Scientific American commemorates the landing on October 2 , 1921 , of the first visitors from our sister planet , Mars. Only fifty years have elapsed since those illustrious navigators of the heavens , Professors Tegelet and Derd- lim, descended literally “from out of a clear sl(y ” upon a tobacco field down in Guilford County , North Carolina.] We are quite amused when we read oi the surprise and terror with which these two sci¬ entists were greeted by the people who saw them drop onto the Earth in their frail com pressed air cylinder. Yet we now think u not at all unusual to spend an occasional week-end on M ars. There are perhaps fifty or more trans-celestial cylinder lines in regu¬ lar operation on as many fields in the United States alone. Henry Ford, III, who has recently retired, has built an Italian villa on the sister planet and he has announced his intention of spending the winter there each year. Since there is practically no risk in mak¬ ing the trip, it is becoming more popular each day. The cylinders are adequately lined and the three score passengers are quite comfort able during the five or six hours required to make the air voyage. The recently patented landing device which utilizes the reaction principle through the application of com pressed air in a direction opposite the direc¬ tion of the ship’s course absolutely does away with the possibility of a too hurried approach to the planet. As the cylinder shoots out of the tube at the sending field it is traveling ar the rate of over one hundred miles an hour. I his speed decreases somewhat as the cylin¬ der moves forward, but as soon as the air begins to grow more rarified it gradually moves faster, since the attraction of the earth now grows less and less. Leaving the atmos¬ pheric field at the one hundred mile mark, the car literally shoots forward, assuming in space the incredible speed of forty thousand miles per hour. The speed increases, there being no atmosphere and consequently no re¬ sistance, and the cylinder moves forward without any force being applied to it. As it approaches the neighbor planet the air cush¬ ion about this body decreases its speed, and at ten miles above the surface the velocity has again dropped to one hundred miles per hour. Rele asing the giant compressed air tanks to¬ ward the descent to the planet, and dropping the great parachute at the rear, the cylinder slows down and settles to earth as if on an enormous spring. The process of emerging from the big bullet requires only about fifteen minutes, and since the atmospheric pressure on both planets is practically the same, no discomfort is experienced in making the change. The development of the Earth-Mars Transportation Company has been truly re¬ markable, and the two planets are now for all practical purposes much nearer each othei than America and Europe. This great enter¬ prise has been the chief agency in bringing about and fostering a better Pan-Earth- M arsianism, a relationship which each planet should strive to cultivate and perpetuate.— The Editor. SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN THE REPORT Professor Tegelet: No doubt you thought last October when you assembled at Thor Field to watch Professor Derdlim and me hop off for the Earth that you were wit¬ nessing the passing from our planet of two fool scientists whose demise would be only a “happy riddance” to Mars. But, gentle¬ men, you have had no such luck, and aftei nine months here we are back with you at the old club! (Applause.) I hardly know how to begin. As the people of the American Republic on Earth would say, “We’ve been scouting around quite a bit” since we last met with you. Of course, you are quite familiar with the de¬ tails of the construction of the cylinder in which we made our flight, and with the prin¬ ciple involved in making it, since it was this body that planned and championed the un¬ dertaking. I was highly gratified to learn that Professor Stagazer and his fellow as tronomers of the Club succeeded in follow¬ ing with their intricately toned X-rayscope the movement of our cylinder in its path to Earth. When we considered the fart that the trip required eight hours, and that dur¬ ing this eight hours the Earth had turned one- third the way upon its axis in the X-rayscope and the cylinder out in space, it makes us pause in admiration of the instrument that can accomplish such a thing. The Professor tells me that he not only followed our move¬ ment in space, but also observed our landing, and though he was not positively certain, he was reasonably sure that we had made Earth safely. And such was the case. In private con¬ versation with you. Professor Dredlim and I have told you how we landed safely, thanks to the compressed air arrangement and the big parachute, in a field just on the northern edge of the little city of Greensboro, on the extreme eastern coast of the continent they call North America, situated in one of the stale divisions termed North Carolina. Our experiences from then on were so varied and so interesting that, I fear, I may digress from my subject, which, as you un¬ derstand, is a report on the educational sys¬ tems and institutions of the sister planet. Let it suffice for me to say, however, that, as they express it, we were “quite the rage” for a considerable time. They lodged us at a hos¬ telry called the O. Henry, named, I think, in honor of one of their prominent sons, who be¬ came an internationally known writer of short stories, one of their most popular literary forms. We managed to get along, and soon contrived a medium of communication with them. As soon as we had acquired their language, which required several weeks, they began to show us around and to acquaint us with their various institutions. The Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, the Ladies’ Club, and other like organizations had us out to ban¬ quets, dinners, parties, and teas, where we were honor guests and sat, as is their custom, next the toastmaster. This man is now prac¬ tically a figurehead, obsolete they say, and these functions lack zest, and—I believe they say in Paris, one of the religious centers of Earth, “ze pep —due, they told me, to the activities of one called Hardhead—no, not that—Vol—Volstead—yes, that’s it. I re¬ member William Jennings Bryan told me that this man Volstead was one of his—er— Tombstone buddies. But coming to my subject, about which 1 have said nothing as yet, it will be necessary to explain that we found it imperative that we adopt some system by which to gather the information we were seeking. We had decided to divide our tasks, and it fell to me to study the school systems. The report I make to-night, then, is upon the subject of 8 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN High Schools. Seeing the importance of sys¬ tem, we found it to be quite abundant there. Some of the individuals persisted in calling it “red tape”—a most silly phrase—but the officials scorned this epithet, saying that it was the “hot stuff,” or some such learned ex¬ pression. For a week or ten days we re¬ mained in this city, and while I studied the school systems, Professor Derdlim examined the business interests, including the cotton manufacturing plant located there that is the largest of its kind on Earth. We then left for other parts of the planet, using our cylin¬ der in covering long distances, such as cross¬ ing the Pacific Ocean, a little matter requir¬ ing some paltry ten minutes to accomplish. In this way we covered all important points on Earth, including Russia and Podunk, Indiana, and gained a comprehensive knowl¬ edge of the customs of the inhabitants. Returning to Greensboro about the last of May, we learned that the High School there was just on the eve of their Commencement. This is a more or less sad occasion that marks the graduation of the Senior Class of that year. Appropriate exercises are held in com¬ memoration of their completion of the high school course, and at one of these occasions, called Class Day, different members read papers prepared by themselves that deal with the several phases of the life of the class dur¬ ing its period in the school. Each year these articles, together with other records of the school year, are printed in a neat volume that they designate The REFLECTOR. Shortly after returning to Greensboro, I was visiting one night in the home of one of these members of the Senior Cl ass when I happened to notice one of these little books lying on the library table. In¬ quiring as to its nature, I soon ascertained what it was for, and being particular to per¬ use it carefully, I asked where I might pro¬ cure one for myself. I was directed to the Manager, and from him I easily obtained a copy. And it is this copy that I have brought back with me as a report on the high schools of the United States in particular. It is a representative book from a representative high school. In it you will find a record of the various school activities. These are grouped under different sections. Primarily, these sec¬ tions attempt to portray the life of the Sen¬ iors and members of the student body. The first section is devoted entirely to the graduating class. As the name of this An¬ nual suggests, it is simply a reflector of what their four years’ environment has been and has meant to them. In it are mirrored the happenings and impressions of this important period in the lives of the Earth men. You notice they have left an individual record of each member, giving a short account of his personal characteristics and his school ac¬ complishments, and, what is perhaps most in teresting to us Marsians, a photograph of himself. 9 Senior Mascot 10 . MATTIE LOUISE AMOLE MARY ANDERSON Age 17; Height 5 feet 3 inches Weight 118 pounds Age 18; Height 5 feet 5 inches Weight 109 pounds “When she will she will and you can depend on. it.” “Sign of nobleness, like stars, shall shine on all deserves.” We really think that High Life should pay Louise a regular salary for her good weekly “write-ups.” Somehow we have a sneaking feeling that this classmate of ours is a bud¬ ding Mary Roberts Rinehart or a Jean Strat¬ ton Porter, and that in after years we’ll all be proud to say that we went to school with her. There is about Louise one thing which keeps us from feeling that she is slightly superior to the rest of us—her frequent and delightful giggle. Anna Howard Shaw Literary Society, 1919- 20 .

She has never been known to lose her temper. Mary is one of the serious members of the Senior Class. Whenever she expresses an opinion, one may be sure that she has carefully considered the question in all its lights and her remarks will be worth hearing. Literary Societv, 1919- 20 .

Sometimes, for reasons he knows not why, the world to him is all wrong. It is generally conceded that he is a born gen¬ ius and he bids fair to go to the legislature within ten years after graduation. CARLOTTA BARNES Age 18; Height 5 feet 1 inch Weight 110 pounds “Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.” Carlotta has won the worthy title of the “squarest girl in the Senior Class,” and we don’t know of any one who deserves it moie, for she is on the square with her teachers, with her classmates, and with the world in general. Sincerity and frankness are two of Carlotta’s outstanding characteristics and these, together with her reliable and depend¬ able spirit, have won for her many a staunch admirer.

' Brown eyes, slow drawl, easy-going ways— “Ya-as,” that’s Max! He has never been known to be in a hurry about anything; and we have yet to see him ruffled or excited. He possesses a great deal of dry wit that is al¬ ways cropping out at the most unexpected times, especially in Latin Class and during Senior Class meetings. Trust Max for doing or saying something that no one else would have thought of in a 100 years. ERNEST BARR Age 16; Height 5 feet 10 inches Weight 160 pounds “Speak thy mind.” Ernest is one of the most studious members of our class. He is really as “earnest” as his name implies. His hobby is science and we can picture him in later years among the fore¬ most scientists. His teachers speak of him as a human question mark. Ernest enjoys an argument nearly as much as his class chum. Paul Causey, does. Junior Marshall, 1921. Manager of Baseball. 1921. Junior Student Council. 1921. Treasurer of Boys’ Lit¬ erary Society.

We wish that more of us had this splendid trait of Eula’s, for then the Class of ’22 would be even better (if possible) than it is now. RUTH ELIZABETH BENJAMIN Age 17 ; Height 5 feet 1R inches Weight 92 pounds “My honor is my life; both grow in one, Take honor from me and my life is done.’ Here’s Ruth, the smallest member of our class. Although small in stature, Ruth has a great mind. She is very witty, a good student, and dependable. With her good nature, Ruth has done much to make G. H. S. a pleasant place, and for this reason she has endeared herself to many. Mary Lyon Literary Society, 1920. Athletic Association, 1920-21-22. Athletic Association, 1918-19-20-21. Hiking Club, 1920.

A hard fighter and a square player in a cool, quiet way—this is Lyndon. One feels that he could be trusted at all times in any emergency and would never prove unfaithful. Try as hard as he does. Lyndon cannot conceal the laughing light in his merry black eyes. Age 18; Height 5 feet 9 inches Weight 143 pounds Distinct in individualities.” Francis’s complicated nature makes him all the more interesting. He may be counted upon as always saying the thing least ex pected, and for this reason he is ever a source of joy to the opposite sex. A boy worth while, a boy who will fight to the bitter end for what he believes is right—this is Francis. Athletic Association, 1921-22. Literary Society, 1920. Senior Football Team. 1922.

C. C. W. girl to have pal¬ pitation of the heart. It is a known fact that when arranging basket-ball games out of town Managers always inquire if Joe is to play; for they say that is a determining factor in the number of female spectators. That’s all right though, Joe, we never complain about your preference for out-of-town girls, when we remember your basket-ball playing for old G. H. S. When the Senior Class began to look around for the High Life Editor-in-Chief, Paul was the one chosen because of his alert mind and high standard in scholarship. His favorite pastime is arguing. We wonder why he didn’t enter the Triangular Debate. Paul never fails in courtesy toward any one, as is shown by his being voted the politest boy in the Senior Class. Football Squad, 1919.

Hal is also a wonderful pitcher and always ready when the call comes to put the opposing batters out of the race. MARTHA BOYD COX Age 17; Height 5 feet 4 inches Weight 110 pounds “Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit.’’ We’ll ever be thankful to Danville High School for our “Martie,” for it was from there that she came to us in our Junior year. Though a little reserved at first, her lovable disposition and straightforwardness won our hearts. Martha’s zeal in the classroom, to¬ gether with her magnetic personality, have made her one of our best all-round students, and we feel that all who can call her friend should count themselves lucky.

MARGARET RUTH COBLE Age 17; Height 5 feet 2 inches Weight 125 pounds “Next to faith in God, is faith in labor.” Whenever anybody says the name, “Mar¬ garet Coble,” you may picture somebody al¬ ways in a good humor, always willing to help anybody out, and as smart and bright as can be. Margaret has the distinction of being not only popular with her classmates but also with her teachers. MARY DENNY Age 17; Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 118 pounds “And life ' s worth while because you smile.” Many are the times when we have been shocked out of our serene calmness by Mary’s high and excitable voice telling some thrilling piece of news. Trust her for knowing the latest about every one and she is always will ing to share it with others. Gloom and worry seem to be two words that are never found in Mary’s vocabulary.

Yes, and her hair is made to match. She is a quiet, lovable sort of girl and she has made a host of pals while in High School. Judging by what we see of Vallie outside ' of school we believe there are others besides those of the fair sex who are eager to be numbered among her close friends. WILLIAM ECK.YRDT Age 18; Height 5 feet 8J4 inches Weight 138 pounds “A man in whom there is no guile.’’ Bill is one of those rare fellows whom a person loves to meet at all times, regardless of the weather. He has a will to work and a disposition that wins friends, and these to¬ gether have made him one of the most likable fellows in our class. William has always been faithful in the classroom and he has excelled in geometry to such an extent that even Miss Gressitt has been heard to say, “Very good, William.” Literary Society, 1920.

Her ability to recite is as yet unrivalled—and, of course, that inevitable smile would put across anything! She brings to our minds that saying, “Give to the world the best you have and the best will come back to you.” Now, no one doubts that “Fitz’s” gift will be just a lot of good cheer tied up with a great big smile. LILLIAN GREY FETTER Age 17; Height 5 feet inches Weight 139 pounds “Not too serious, not too gay, But a rare good fellow when it comes to play.” Throughout her High School course she has proved that good grades and a good time go hand in hand. Serious and thoughtful when occasion demands it, at other times the life of the party—this is Grey. Being elected the most attractive and entertaining girl of the Senior Class shows what ’22 thinks of her. We expect great things of this girl with her brilliancy and her winning personality.

By his quiet, unassuming way in doing things he has won the respect and admiration of the student body and Faculty. He has always had a high place as a scholar, yet he always takes an active part in outside activities. Jeff’s twinkling blue eyes deny the fact that their owner is all seriousness. MARY ALICE FOWLER Age 17; Height 5 feet 3 inches Weight 118 pounds “Her care is never to offend And every creature is her friend.” Mary Alice’s favorite expression is, “I’m just scared to death. However, she has known enough many a time to drive away our blues by one of her witty, unexpected re¬ marks. She is the possesor of a splendid gift—a cheerful disposition. She is warm¬ hearted and generous and is true through “thick and thin” to all her friends. Varsity Football. 1921. Boys’ Literary Society, 1920-21. Treasurer Athletic As¬ sociation. 1921-22.

This is doublj true of Carolyn. From the present-day indi¬ cations, she may never shine in the world of math, but we predict that Carolyn will never lack a host of loyal friends. KATHERINE ELIZABETH GRANTHAM Age 17; Height 5 feet 9 inches Weight 125 pounds “Her life has many a hope and aim.” Katherine started into High School with the determination to get the most possible out of it. All, who know Katherine, know that when she makes up her mind to do a thing it is as well as done. From her we have learned much as to scholarship and leadership. Know¬ ing her as we do, we verily believe. that there’ll be much heard from this classmate of ours in the future. Here’s washing you well, Katherine!

All over the school grounds he is known as “Senator, a nickname which he gained through his oratorical powers and his con¬ stant good nature. Edwin’s countenance pro¬ claims that he is in a good humor toward all the world and that he bears no man a grudge. It takes a good deal to worry this fellow, but when the occasion demands it, such as an argument in History class, he can be as in tent and serious as any one. FRANCES HARRISON Age 17; Height 5 feet 3 inches Weight 100 pounds “The head most high, the heart found faith- fulest. The forest hand.” Frances is surely a jolly little girl. To say she was elected the most congenial girl in the Senior Class does not even say enough. She’s full of pep” at all times and especially at a football game. No matter what you ask her to do you’ll find her ever obliging and willing. Declamation Contest, 1920-21. Hi-Y, 1920-21. Literary Society, 1919- 20 - 21 - 22 . Science Club, 1922.

Margaret is something of a recluse and yet she is alive to that which goes on around her. She believes in steady, hard work followed with plenty of good cheer. GEORGIE ARMFIELD HANNER Age 19; Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 117 pounds “To be glad of life because it gives you a chance to love, work, and play.” There is not a more wholesome, whole- souled girl in our class than Georgie. Her philosophy of life seems to be that there is a time for all things. Intent upon her work during working time, yet when all the work is completed Georgie is right there when it comes to fun and frolic. Expression Class, 1919-20. Dramatic Club, 1921- 22 .

On some occasions he can display the manners of a Chesterfield. Looking into the crystal globe, we see him vagabonding down the high trail of life, leaving the troublesome cares far behind.

' ” “Tommy” or “Cicero” was elected the Jun¬ ior Class Baby, and because of his tender years and his artful innocence he made such a success at it that he was again voted the Class Baby. Tommy seems to have a knack at always getting on the good side of his teachers. We only regret that he hasn ' t shared the knowledge of this art with us. 25 GLADYS IRENE HOLLAND Age 17; Height 5 feet 4 inches Weight 102 pounds “Never idle a moment, but thrifty and thoughtful of others.’’ EUGENIA HUNTER Age 16; Height S feet Weight 120 pounds “The fruit derived from labor is the sweet¬ est of pleasures.’’ Little, likable, fun-loving, and energetic— this is Gladys. She has the ability of talking with ease on almost any subject and this has won for her such a high place among the de baters of G. H. S. Whenever there is any¬ thing to be done, ask Gladys to do it, and she is always willing to help. Neat, orderly, quiet Eugenia—who ever heard of her being in any meanness, or hand¬ ing in a pa per late, or being tardy, or anything of that sort? No, “Genie” is always up to the minute with her lessons and has gained for herself the reputation of a student. We feel sure that whatever she does in the future will be a success.

One would have to search far and wide be fore finding a truer and better friend than Lillie. Those who have been fortunate to come into close friendship with her know what she really is—a hard worker, a gener¬ ous heart, and a sincere character ; the great est of these is a sincere character. If the fu¬ ture can be judged by the past, we predict for Lillie a successful career in the business world. If there is an all-round girl anywhere, Nel¬ lie must be that girl. If its athletics, either as player or manager, if its dramatics, cheer leading, song leading, being a good student, debating, or just being attractive, she isn ' t found wanting. In order that she might make the Triangular Debate in her Senior Year, she dropped a trade she is a star in and made the debate. We prophesy for Nellie, the good “buddie” to both teachers and fellow students, the always smiling, cheerful, willing girl, the same sort of success that she has attained Athletic Association, 1918-22.

JONES Age 18; Height 5 feet 10 inches Weight 155 pounds “See the conquering hero come! Sound the trumpet; beat the drum.” Neal is at an advantage almost everywhere —on the track, on the football field, or in class. And as for all those notes that come to him, we judge that he must be very apt in the art of “stringing.” His likable personality has made him one of the most popular boys in our class, among both the student body and the Faculty. Neal’s hobby is teasing. MAUDE IRENE JONES Age 17; Height 65 inches Weight 122 pounds “The gentle mind by gentle deeds is known.” Maude is “just Maude” wherever you see her. Her sweet disposition and innocent look has carried her sailing through the past four years of her High School life. She is very studious and puts her work before play. Maude is often absent at our “week-end par¬ ties.” This does not mean that she does not enjoy social life, for sometimes she attends week-end parties at Oak Ridge.

She does not try to do the spectaculai thing; but in her quiet, unassuming way she does well all of her work. Her friends say that her cheery smile is a regular ‘‘chaser of blues” when a person is feeling down and out. EMIL KLINE Age 16; Height 5 feet 8 r inches Weight 155 pounds He can zvho thinks he can. Well, well! Look who ' s here! I do believe it’s “Ikey,” the chewing-gum fiend, the short¬ hand king! Emil is one of Gibson’s pro¬ teges. but that doesn ' t keep him from being- one of the most popular in the class. He be¬ lieves in studying enough to pass the work and enjoys life the rest of the time. Mary Lyon Literary Society, 1920. Athletic Association, 1922. Commercial Club, 1922.

Her reports and her election as the most stu¬ dious member of her class bear full evidence of this. She is a perfect marvel at getting work done and we never will understand how she has had time to keep a notebook that has been the envy of the whole Chemistry class. Judging from her past, her future will be one of great success. Age 17; Height 6 feet 1 inch Weight 160 pounds “A man’s a man for all that.” It is said that a person’s character may be judged by his face. Here is a person of whom we love to think that is true. His frank, open face and winning smile draw all to him instantly. A back-stop in baseball, a good student, and a lasting friend—what more can you ask? And lately Horace has added to his accomplishments his ability to play “Ladies’ Man”—especially to some Junior girls! Athletic Association, 1919-20-21-22. Mary Lyon Literary Society, 1919-20.

In the classroom she does splendid work, which is shown by her grades. In the school organ¬ ization, Managing Editor of High Life, and the Glee Club, she does faithful and consci¬ entious work. In fact, one of her most out¬ standing characteristics is her trustworthi¬ ness. And when time comes for fun and play, Mildred enters in to have her share! “Even the soft winds breathe sweet music for my ear.” This is the feminine Paderewski of the Greensboro High School. Nothing pleases her more than when she is playing the piano. Mildred has many other splendid qualities which cannot he portrayed with ink and pen alone. She is an excellent student—and counts her friends by the dozens. Athletic Association, 1920- 21-22. Dramatic Club, 1921- 22 . Secretary Glee Club, 1921- 22. Class Poet.

Every one who meets Blanche becomes her friend. Her quick mind coupled with her willingness to work have won for her an en¬ viable place in G. H. S. With her reputation of an “A” student her future success cannot be doubted. ROSA MARKS Age 18; Height 5 feet 2 inches Weight 94 pounds “No storm ever ruffled the current of her life.’ ' Rather quiet and reserved is Rosa, but those who know her intimately declare that a more dependable or unselfish friend than this little girl could never be found. She has great ar¬ tistic talent and we firmly believe that she will be a great success along this line. As for her ability in this way, view this volume. Athletic Association, 1921-22.

She is so full of fun and mischief that every one likes her. She stands well in her studies, especially those taught by men teachers! Mildred is a genius at plan¬ ning parties and picnics, and she always gives one a good time. DALTON McNAIRY Age 17; Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 150 pounds “ Whatc’cr he did was done with so much ease. In him alone it was natural to please.” No matter how exciting the occasion or how nerve-racking the test, Dalton is always the same friendly, calm Dalton. At crucial moments his only display of emotion is a broad grin. With his reliable Ford, Dalton represents to us all that is dependable and faithful. Athletic Association, 1919-20-21-22.

He is a great favorite among the fairer sex, having made his debut among them early in his career! He is a willing worker and always ready to do his part. His ever-ready smile has helped while away man) dull study periods in chapel! PEYTON NEAL Age 18; Height 6 feet Weight 160 pounds “The countenance is the portrait and picture of the mind.” For sociability this member is excelled by none of us. We all like Peyton and we think he likes us. He is not much on getting grades but a bundle of information has been collected from some place. You can count on Peyton for a logical reason for anything he does. Literary Society, 1919- 20 . Dramatic Club, 1921- 22 . Assistant Business Manager Reflector, 1920-21. Track Team, 1918-19.

In that Ford of his, he always comes by just in time to pick you up for a ride. If it’s on the basket-ball floor, although he hasn’t made his ultra, he’s there ready to do his part and he certainly is hold¬ ing down the throwing end of a baseball bat¬ tery. The Oden boy can deliver the goods. EDWIN WOLFE PEARCE Age 16; Height 5 feet 9 inches Weight 130 pounds “There’s a deal of deviltry beneath his mil a exterior. Edwin is better known as “Pete.” Appar¬ ently, he is a very quiet and bashful boy, but in reality he is as wild as his middle name implies. He is very popular with both boys and girls of the class, and he “strings ’em” like a veteran. He is not the smartest in his class, but he stands high in his grades. As a silver-tongued orator, Demosthenes is a piker when it comes to “Pete.” Athletic Association, 1920-21-22. Literary Society, 1921. Baseball Pitcher, 1921. Basket-Ball Sub, 1921.

She always has a good time. One seldom meets her without being greeted with a smile and a good word. “Boots” is very interested in her school. She always goes out for the typewriting contest. Instead of wearing G. H. S. on her sweater, she now wears D. H. We wonder what it all means? MARGARET ELSIE PICKARD Age 17; Height 5 feet 4 4 inches Weight 135 pounds “A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market.” “Peggy,” whose big brown eyes cause pal¬ pitations in all masculine hearts, and envy in all feminine ones! We all love Peggy. We all know her heart is much larger and more beautiful than her eyes. A more congenial and whole-hearted girl never came to G. H. S. Through the four years of High, Peggy has always been and will continue to be, throughout her life, a loyal and true friend to all with whom she comes in contact.

Her ability has been seen in many phases of school life. She is fond of outdoor sports and often may be found with the hiking gang. The more we see of her the more we regret that she has not been with us all the four years. FRANCES RANKIN Age 17; Height 5 feet 2 t inches Weight 114(4 pounds “Thou shalt love and be loved. Frances is one of the amiable girls in our class. She is full of pep. enjoys life and helps others to do the same. Every one loves to see her when she is smiling, and that is most of the time.

Mr. President! Yes, this is true, for Hubert has most assuredly made us a good President for the past two years. He was elected the most popular and the best all¬ round boy in the Senior Class, and he is truly worthy of this title. He enters whole-heart¬ edly into everything that is for the good of our school. Hubert always sees the humor¬ ous side of life, often to the discomfiture of the teachers. RAYMOND HAROLD SEBURN Age 17; Height 5 feet 10 inches Weight 150 pounds “For lie’s a jolly good fellow.” Harold’s activities seem to know no limit— a business man, a happy-go-lucky good fel¬ low, an athlete of no mean ability. And, in spite of his varied occupations, we must ad¬ mit, a good student. Harold has many friends, both fair and masculine. Harold can always be found the ringleader in any crowd that’s out for fun and frolic. President, 1921-22. President of Junior Class, 1921. President Student Council, 1921.

Beneath a mild exterior can be found a willing and working heart. He does his best and his best is so good that he has gained the reputation of being reliable. He is very oblig¬ ing and can often be seen “dodging” sorm one around. He works hard day and night, and his greatest pay is well done, the high¬ est praise of faithful work. HELEN RANEY SLACK Age 18: Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 116 pounds Leave silence to the saints—I am but hitman!” “Slack” possesses all the charms of a true blonde. Her golden hair and deep blue eye-. are her greatest charms. Now when it comes to talking—well, an Edison Diamond Disc just isn’t in it at all! It may well be said that Records may come and records may go— but ‘Slack’ goes on forever!” She can do many things quite as well as she can talk, probably one of the best things is scattering little seeds of happiness.

In all, Maude is a true-blue girl—steady and able to deliver the goods. MARGARET SMITH Age 16; Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 133 pounds “No beauty’s like the beauty of the mind.” When Margaret ' s name is mentioned to those who don’t know her so well their first thought is of the girl who has always been on the Honor Roll. But there is much more than this to this seemingly quiet and reserved girl, for Margaret has a sparkling wit and, when the occasion demands, she can use it well. Athletic Association, 1920-21-22.

She is not the sort who goes through the school loudly voicing her ideas and opinions, but she is the instigator of a more telling force for good—the silent ex¬ ample of doing her best as becomes a Senior at all times and places. Ruth is a diligent scholar and uses all her time to the best ad¬ vantage, but she is never too busy to help a friend.

After one year there she came back to G. H. S. We hate to think what the Senior Class would have been without Virginia’s infectuous laugh and her dry wit.. Things never seem half so bad in class when Virginia is around. ETHEL FRANCES STOCKTON Age 18; Height 5 feet 5 inches Weight 109 pounds To know her is to love her.” Her charming personality and generous dis¬ position have won for Ethel many good friends in G. H. S. She works in harmony with a winning smile, but beware of her sar¬ castic wit. Her golden hair, though she de¬ nies it, is nearly red, which added to her com¬ plexion makes her very attractive. She is the most original member of our class and she has great poetical ability. Dramatic Club, 1922. Athletic Association, 1921-22. Mary Lyon Literary Society, 1919-20.

She has ever championed the cause of girls’ athletics and has done much to popularize these sports. She is herself a star basket-ball player, and quite at home on a tennis court. The same energy and ability which have made her so success¬ ful in athletics have distinguished her in other activities. Many phases of school life have felt the touch of this maiden—the live wire of the Class of ’22. She is thoroughly de¬ pendable, and withal quite lovable. Athletic Association, 1919-20-21-22.

Sincerity in all she says and does, and always thoughtful of others are Margaret’s two prominent characteristics. She has never been known to shirk her part of any work and for this reason we feel that Mar¬ garet has gotten the utmost possible of hei High School life. Mary Lyon Literary Society, 1919.

His gritting de¬ termination, together with his keen alertness, have made him a quarter-back to be feared on any football field. The results of class¬ room work are gleaned by Paul with such an indifferent ease that we believe if he should once make up his mind to it he could easily keep pace with the “Honor Rollers.” What¬ ever Paul does or says is bound to be gener¬ ously sprinkled with “Transouish” originality.

She belongs to the type of people for whom the world is calling and her diligence will make her life work an eminent success.

She is one of the best Domestic Science pupils and no doubt we shall hear of her as a teacher later in this work.

If you want anything done, done how you want it, and when you want it. call on Marguerite, because she’s al¬ ways right there. In size Marguerite is small, but she is small in no other respect. She has a big heart, a broad mind, and a good humor. Athletic Association, 1920-21-22. Dramatic Club, 1922. Orchestra, 1921-22. Glee Club, 1922. Literary Society, 1920- 21 . Expression Class, 1921.

We feel that the diligent pursuit of his studies and his way of entering whole-heartedly into many phases of outside activities have enabled him to gei the most possible out of his High School life. The high esteem that Jimmie’s classmates feel for him was shown when they elected him the squarest and the most influential boy in the class. Literary Society, 1920- 21 .

Shake gently, and bubbles will rise to the top. The largest bubbles are called “Football Craze”; the next in size, “Basket-Ball Enthu¬ siasm” ; and the smallest ones, which are most numerous, are known as “Thrills over the Ladies.” In the bottom of the test-tube will be a precipitate, known as “Worth Williams,” which is a most valuable substance in Greens¬ boro High School. Age 18; Height 5 feet 10 inches Weight 140 pounds “This fellow picks up wit, as a pigeon peas.’’ Robert is full of mischief and is always ready to do some trick. He is liked by every one that knows him. He is a very good ball player and will be missed next year. One of his most mischievous tricks is singing. He has a peculiar “squint” in life in that he sees only the bright side; he can even make a joke out of a history class. Hi-Y Club, 1920-21-22. Athletic Association, 1919-20-21-22.

She meets all obstacles with a cheery smile and has been the means of banishing many a person’s blues. If Aileen keeps this optimistic nature and this same affability she will make the kind of woman that the world needs. LUCILE WYNNE Age 16: Height 5 feet 6 inches Weight 175 pounds “I ' ll be merry, I’ll be free; I ' ll be sad for nobody.” “Skinnie” worships at the shrine of the god of smiles and, in fact, she is a high priestess in the sanctuary. A little trip now and then, early to bed and late to rise, relieves the mon¬ otony of almost any situation in which Skin nie” finds herself. The secret of her marvel¬ ous success in her studies lies in her discre¬ tion in choosing courses. Commercial Club, 1921- 22 . Athletic Association, 1919-20-21-22.

This sketch is called the Senior Class His¬ tory, and it is written by one of the students who had been designated by the class to do the work, and who bears the title of “Class Historian.” 50 Senior Class History Listen, my friend, and you shall hear Of all that ' s happened in every year To all these lads and lassies gay. Who entered so nobly into the fray. And, having won, are now, to-day, Before you in such goodly array. N the fourth of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighteen, the yard of old G. H. S. was filled with a group of chattering and laughing boys and girls. This day had been set aside for the enrollment of the Freshmen and new students, but most of that gay and happy crowd were f reshmen. The old bell tolled at last and- slowly we pushed our way into the auditorium to learn of the mysteries of High School life. Since the school building was not large enough to accommodate all the pupils there would have to be two sessions, a morning and an afternoon. Ac¬ cordingly the Freshmen settled down to real hard work, some coming in the afternoon. Thus the book of our High School life was opened and with a feeling of fear and awe we entered upon our new duties and pleasures. But in spite of the three months ' holiday for “flu and six science teachers, the work was not as easy as it sounds and the approaching summer was hailed with great joy. When school opened the following year we were eager to organize our class and accomplish something really worth while. A party, of course, would be the onlv way to do it and a Christmas partv was just the way to start the holidays off with a bang. Accordingly, on December the twenty-third, the Sophomores met at the High School and selected a captain to pilot them along on their dangerous voyage. This done, we settled down with fine prospects for the spring term, ever forming plans and noble ideals to be carried out in our Junior year. After examinations we felt that we deserved a real good time, so a picnic was planned for Doggett’s. Such a wet, bedraggled crowd as returned that night, you never saw. But it would take more than rain to dampen the spirits of the Sophomores and all felt better for the shower. ’Twas in the Junior year of our High School life that we had the best time, and we feel that in this year we accomplished more than in any other. Enough resolutions and plans were formed to wreck the whole building, and it was rumored that the Juniors were shaking the very foundations. In all our actions we strove to live up to our motto, “Play the Game,” and what higher ideal could have been set before any group? When the officers were elected an inaugural reception was planned, hut instead of being greeted by the Juniors, the officers were met at the door by witches and ghosts. By some miracle they returned home safely, fully aware of the gravity and responsi¬ bility placed upon them. Then the Latin Class of the “Jolly Juniors” resolved to give a Latin play. Old Cicero made the High School walls ring, practising his declarations against Cataline, and the wedding of his daughter was a solemn yet gala occasion for all present. We look back upon the practices of this play and the final night as one of the brightest spots in our High School life. Now final exams were approaching and those who had been sleeping in History Class awoke with a start. Junior “Math was the terror of our lives, and placed beside this all other troubles seemed small. We felt like birds out of a cage when the final day came. Now off to Doggett’s for a picnic and a good long rest! Seniors! But alas, not all of the fine crowd that started in that Freshman Class. Only two rooms are required to hold our dwindled forces, but how¬ ever small in number the quality has remained the same. So ' tis with a feeling of sorrow and yet pride that we begin our last year at High School. We, the stately and dignified Seniors, walk the hall, realizing that we must, in this our last year, do our very best. It is our privilege to assume the responsibility for High Life , and we hope to make this the best publication that has ever gone forth from the High School. So, the Class of 22 leaves a record of its sorrows, its ambitions, and its accomplishments, with the hope that they will be remembered, not for what they said here but for what they did here. Margaret Smith. 52 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN The Historian lays before us the past of the class, and we read the record. But to the people of Earth this is not enough. They have a great curiosity. The past and the present is to them not enough. They must learn the ways of the future. And so they elect one from their number whom they call Prophet. Clothing him with the robe ol Mystery and giving to him the eyes of the clairvoyant, they bid him peer into the Future and make known to them what he beholds laid away in the storehouse of Time for each of them. And looking into the crystal this is what he sees: 53 Class Prophecy Paul Transou is now President of the Transou Hat Company, one of the largest concerns of its kind in the South. The head of the Chemistry Department of Yale University, Professor Lyndon Bennett, has discovered a new compound from burning phosphorus, with which he expects to revolutionize the scientific world. One of the largest shoe shine parlors in the great city of Greensboro is owned by Robert Williamson and William Eckhart, Inc. Dr. Raymond Lanier, D. D., Ph. D., is a deacon in the Southern Baptist Church, rising to this position through his earnestness and sincerity in his calling of delivering the gospel to his fellow man. After a series of debates in the upper house of Congress, Senator Edwin Hale has finally succeeded in securing the repeal of the 18th Amendment— after which “Jiggs” Murray has opened a cabaret and barroom which is one of the finest in the South. One of the big features is Mile. Mildred Morrison ' s classic dancing, supported by a chorus of wide renown, consisting of Misses Ruth Benjamin, Frances Harrison, Martha Cox, Frances Rankin, Margaret Pickard, and Gladys Holland, by some said to surpass that of the famous Ruth St. Denis, the Russian ballet dancer and chorus. Prof. Edwin Pearce, one of America’s greatest scientists, is working on a theory of how to get acetasalicitic acid by the destructive distillation of hydrobromic acid, which he expects to feed his race horses for the coming- derby. Mile. Suzanne Cocroft’s successor, Mile. Lucile Wynne, is carrying on her work as head of the Royal Pharmaceutical Company, whose specialty is how to take off superfluous flesh and to keep the supple grace and attractive¬ ness of youth. The ancient and mystic order of the D. D. D. ' s have built a shrine for old women disappointed in love, through the efforts of Misses Mary Denny, Carolyn Glascock, and Mildred Little. 54 A new and more complete History of the American People” has just been written and published by Professors Eula Beale, Eugenia Hunter, and Carlotta Barnes.

The solemn member of the class, Mary Anderson, is teacher in a little country town in the mountains. The head of the English Department in N. C. C. W. will he occupied by Miss Nida Swain. She is recognized as one of the most brilliant women in college circles.

The Greensboro Women ' s Police Department is headed by Miss Aileen Wolfe and is expected to do a great work. Chas. L. Hinkle, Class Prophet. 57 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Being of a prophetic bent, the people of Earth are naturally temperamental and in¬ clined toward the artistic. They are not so practical as we of Mars. We are greater scientists; we first established communication with them. Yet in the fine arts they outstrip us. They love to sit, two by two, in ham¬ mocks out under the clear skies and lightly strum guitars to the accompaniment of moon¬ beams that chase each other in and out among the trees that gently sway to the rhythm of the evening zephyr. And so to their other accomplishments they have added Poetry. 58 Class poem This is the story of how a great ship, A ship full of hopes, strong and true, Was launched for its journey and rigged out complete. That mammoth ship—Class ’22. First, raw material came to the shore. Where masters so skilled in the art Fashioned and shaped it, and polished it up. Finding the place for each part. Down in the keel the foundation was laid. Things needed most on the trip— Knowledge and character, loyalty, strength,— All had their part in the ship. Four years needed to finish the work. And now that the great task is done, Lo, she stands waiting, with white sails outstretched. Her first voyage of the life just begun. When such a ship is completed and launched. All eyes are turned toward the day When, for the first time, she leaves the home. Oceanward making her way. May you be careful, O ship, all the way. Watch for the quicksand and shoal, Plodding, not drifting, your straightforward course. At last you will come to your goal. Sail on forever, O Class of ’22, Sail through the deep sea of Fame, Finding your place and your work there to do. Always just “Playing the Game.” 59 Mildred Leak. My RTLE. £. L« BARK - - CHrtS.

Item II. To the entire Class of ' 23 we do hereby bequeath the following: 1. A year’s collection of umbrellas, caps, overshoes, etc., which repre¬ sent the results of absent-mindedness of some of the Seniors due to overwork. These various articles can he found strown in rooms 107 and 106. 2. Knowing that the Senior Class of next year can never have a presi¬ dent like ours and feeling sorry for them on account of this, we leave them a possession of Hubert’s which we believe can fully cover the ground of all Senior difficulties—his feet. 3. Our privileges on the platform, sitting in the window, sitting on the radiator, and standing behind the piano, we do hereby give over to them. Item III.

The third year is termed the Jun¬ ior year. It is true of both the high schools and the colleges. Fortunately, we have a group picture of these students who next year will take up the mantles of the present retir¬ ing Seniors. Included with the picture is a history of this same class, and although it has not yet reached the age of complete maturity, nevertheless, I am sure that you will agree, after having examined its record, that it has a promise of big things ahead. This class, you understand, graduates next year. Junior Class Colors : Gold and White Flower : Daisy Motto : “Carry On” OFFICERS CARLOTTA JOHNSON . President ROBERT IRVIN . Vice-President LEONARD TEMKO . Secretary WILLIAM JONES . Treasurer MARJORIE BLAIR . Historian NANCY LITTLE . Poet HRH Junior Class History of the Junior Class r was a dreary day in September, 1919, when we first caught sight of our prison gates for the next four years. We came two hundred strong; in fact, in such overwhelming numbers that it became necessary to enlarge the capacity of the school. The august School Board sat in solemn session for weary hours, grappling with the momentous question of housing the overflowing, irrepressible, verdant Freshmen. A happy decision was finally reached and the “Barns” were built, called, by the Faculty, An¬ nexes, hut known to the student body at large as Barns.” It was cruel to have to leave the main building with its spacious halls and its all-pervading air of study and success, to dwell in a “barn,” which, though new, was undignified and unadorned with any trophies of past victories. But such was the fate of “us poor Freshmen.” When we became Sophomores, however, we left the “Barn” behind us, and went joyously hack to the main building. At least most of us did. There were some few who had become so attached to the “Barn” during their brief sojourn there that the thought of leaving it was too sad to he contemplated. And so they stayed another year. This is not intended to imply, however, that they were in any way related to hayseed. As Sophomores, we all felt that we reallv belonged to old G. 11. S., a feeling which I hear was sadly lacking in our Freshman year. We took an interest in all that concerned the school, trying to do our little bit in everything. This was also the first year in which the class elected officers. But when we became Jolly Juniors, then, in reality, we came to the front and put our names on the ma p. Having become the smallest class in the school, we in no way allowed our sadly depleted numbers to lie a stumbling-block in the way of success. The Junior Football Team won the championship of the school in class football. One of the Junior boys won out in the boys’ tennis singles, defeat¬ ing all other classes. 73 The Junior girls won the tennis doubles, and a Junior girl won out in girls’ tennis singles. The Junior girls ' basket-ball team won the championship. This victory was due, in part, the team thinks, to the influence of the “Amen Corner.” This corner is a little room at one end of the Y. M. C. A. Gymnasium. To the casual observer it is nothing hut a dingy, dirty little room, but to the girls of the Junior Basket-Ball Team it is a great deal more. Here it is that, before the game, the team comes to lay its head on its knees, and to ask, in silent prayer, for victory, and to pledge themselves to play the game fairly and squarely, and, if it is so willed, to meet defeat without a whimper. We Juniors are very proud of our record, and especially proud of defeat¬ ing the Seniors in several athletic contests, and justly so, for the Seniors are hard to beat. Our only wish is that when we are “Grand old Seniors,” we may be as grand in every way as our predecessors.

' Sf Mil ' i : ' SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Now I would have you carefully and at¬ tentively study the report at this point. We have reached the interesting stage of the Sophomore. He is universally termed bloody Soph” and he cheerfully goes about his business of upholding the name. An in¬ dividualist is he. The world’s horizon is lifting before him, and he believes he sees all that is ahead of him. But give him time, and be patient with him, and he will come around into the stage of the Junior and thought, and then in another year he will arrive full-grown upon the level of the Senior, and dignity and freedom. And since there is so much of promise in this untamed Sophomoric exuber¬ ance, I have included their group picture and likewise their history, which is interestingly written in the form of letters.

Treasurer Sophomore Class Extracts from Sophomore Letters My Dear Dot : September, 1920. I know you are eager to hear of my entrance into the High School. Last Wednesday we all gathered at the school to get enrolled and assigned to our different classrooms. First, all the Freshmen ga thered into the chapel to he assigned to their rooms. I never saw so many people in all my life. There were girls and hoys from every part of Greensboro—big boys and little girls, and little hoys and big girls. I think they were of every size, age, and descrip¬ tion. Much to my disappointment, all the Freshmen had to go to Barn B, which is located hack of the main building. All our classes are held in this barn anti we get out only to go to chapel. I think I am going to like it fine. Lots of love, Anne. January, 1921. Dear Dot: We organized our class not long ago. We elected Bobby Wilkins, Pres¬ ident; Norman Block, Vice-President; Lucille Boone, Secretary and Treas¬ urer; and John Ford, Cheer Leader. Every afternoon we practice some kind of athletics, basket-ball or per¬ haps volley-ball. Next spring we are going to have field day, so we are prac¬ ticing up to beat the Sophomores. One of the Freshman rooms got so tired of having to walk in the mud that they built a board walk. The whole school appreciated this act. The different session rooms sometimes hold chapel exercise. The Span¬ ish Class gave a plav that was fine. The room getting the most subscriptions to High Life gets a banner. My room is working hard for it. Yours for the banner. 79 Anne. Dear Dot: May, 1921. I know you’ll be glad to hear that the Freshmen won the Sophomore- Freshman Debate. Our debaters, Lipscomb, Boone, and High, worked hard and well deserved to win. Our room is going to have a picnic next week. All this year the different rooms have had parties. Our class is so large that it is almost impossible to have a party altogether. The Freshmen beat the Sophomores in volley-ball and baseball on Field Day. Each class had a stunt. Our stunt was to take off all the teachers and the states from whence they came. Love, Anne. Dear Dot: November, 1921. I am a Sophomore now. We started to school in September and have about the same class that we had last year. We are divided into four session rooms on the main door and have the whole second floor given over to us. We’ve been playing tennis all this fall. We planned a tournament with which the cold weather interfered. Our part in ‘‘Better Speech Week” was to give all the students colored tags. When they were caught speaking incorrectly they had to forfeit the tag. This did much to help in better speech. We regret that our boys lost the inter¬ class football championship to the Juniors. We organized our class not long ago. We elected Norman Block, Presi¬ dent; James McAlister. Vice-President; Lucille Boone, Secretary; and Harry Neel, Treasurer—all well fitted for their places. Dear Dot: Lots of love. Anne. February, 1922. I know you will be sorry to learn that we lost our basket-ball champion¬ ship to the Juniors. We did our best and fought till the last, but it seemed that fate was against us. 80 We had a good debating team this year, which made a grand effort in the Sophomore-Freshman Dehate, but again fate was against us. Our team, Lips¬ comb and Boone, with Albright, alternate, lost in a hard fought battle to the Freshmen. We all were proud of our team, nevertheless. All of us are interested in the Varsity Basket-Ball teams. Some Sopho¬ mores made the team. We are certainly proud of these players and hope and think that some day they will be the star players for G. FI. S. In the spring we hope to have one big class party with all the Sophomores attending. It will he a grand and glorious occasion with over one hundred and fifty present. I forgot to tell you that some of the Sophomore boys are going out for the Triangular Dehate, and I wouldn ' t be at all surprised if some of them made the team. I must close, Anne.

There is yet another, and regardless of all opinions to the contrary, it is a very important year. You, gentlemen, being of a scientific mind, will more easily understand this fellow we call on the Earth the Freshman. He is simply the amoeva, the one cell. He is a jelly-fish in the process of becoming the wolf. Next year he will be a ferocious animal, an animal that we have just met and have termed the Sophomore. He is at present, however, lost in the wilderness of greenness, timidity, and self -consciousness. You can judge for your¬ self, for one of his fellow members has left a recoid of Ins wanderings in this primeval for¬ est, and the picture of the group will con¬ clusively prove anything that the diary fails to show clearly.

I he first and most necessary feature of the high school we have just ex¬ amined. It is the basis upon which all their schools are established, and from it develops this other part of the normal plan of the Earthian school. This aspect of the school as you, no doubt, have already recognized, is the actual classroom work, involving in¬ struction by the teachers and study and as similation by the student. Along with this fundamental one there has gradually developed another very important phase of school work. This is classified under the name, Student Activities. This side of the school work has been given great impetus on the Earth. Some even go so far as to assert that it is taking more than its just share of school life. In some localities this is undoubtedly true; but in Greensboro, the authorities explained to me, it has been their task to properly corre¬ late this work with the other so that neither would suffer. This, I think, they have done quite successfully. I am (therefore) includ¬ ing in this report a summary of these activi¬ ties under two groups, literary and athletic. The first group would include various organ¬ izations. They publish annually a publica¬ tion known as The REFLECTOR; semi¬ monthly, a newspaper —High Life. They have a club composed of honor students and this they name quite appropriately the Torch Light Club. Another is the Debating Club, another the Dramatic. There is also a Latin Club (which studies a language once in use upon the Earth, but now not spoken), and a Commercial Club. This High School has, also, a Glee Club, an Orchestra, and numer¬ ous other clubs. You will notice after carefully perusing the record of these organizations that the place of student activities in the high school is quite important and quite essential. You will be struck by the fact that this school does not devote too much attention and effort to this side of the school’s progress, but on the other hand, quite successfully correlates it with the actual scholastic work. I have succeeded in obtaining a short ac¬ count of these various clubs, together with pictures of them, and these I now lay before you as typical representatives of student activ¬ ities.

Some special topics, however, are assigned for each issue. 1 he games and athletic activities of the school are each given their place in the paper. Not only does this paper propose to publish articles of worth and merit, but at the same time publish the wit and humor of the school, for no paper is interesting without a little humor now and then. he best talent of the school is found in this little paper, which means so much to every pupil in the school. At present there are about four hundred subscribers to High Life. Not all these subscribers are school folks but many town people are interested readers.

It has done far more than take the place of the Societies, for through the Debating Club an intensive study of argumentation and debating has been made. The mem¬ bers have learned to express their ideas in a clear, logical, and convincing manner. The Club meets every other Tuesday night. Everv meeting has been spent debating and studying current questions, or hearing addresses given b_v prominent lecturers. The Club meetings have meant not only many interest¬ ing hours, but also a broader view of world problems. In view of these facts, there is no doubt that the Club lias been a success. Idle success is, in a great measure, due to the conscientious work of the advisers and coaches, who have sacrificed and worked faithfully with the Club. The work of the Club culminated in the interest created in the Inter state Triangular Debate. The work done by the Debating Club enabled Greensboro to put up such a valiant fight when she met her strong opponents, Asheville and Winston. The following were chosen to represent Greensboro in the Triangular Debate: Affirmative, Hubert Rawlins, Edwin Pearce, Alternate, Brvan P ar- ker: Negative, Nellie Irvin, Katherine Grantham, Alternate, Robert Irvin. In the spring the Debating Club helped the school activities in another way. It took charge of the Declamation Contest to select representatives for the contests at Wake Forest and Guilford Colleges.

Since only fifteen per cent of the Senior Class may be chosen, membership in this club is an honor rather difficult to obtain. Hie first efforts of the Club have been directed towards affiliation with the National High School Honor Society, which was organized bv the National Association of High School Principals in February, 1921. Although the char¬ ter from the national organization has not yet reached us, we have high hopes that it will be granted. To be thus linked with high school leaders throughout our Nation would furnish an inspiration and breadth of vision that would en¬ rich the life of our own school. The Honor Club stands ready to support any movement that will bring into our school higher standards of honor, sound thinking, unselfish service, and genuine sportsmanship. Its ambition is to he a sort of Rotarv Club in our community of eight hundred people, and to cooperate with the Principal. Faculty, and Student Leaders in making a Better Greensboro High School.

H. S. is proud of the play that a number of the students presented this spring, for with the earnest efforts put forth bv every member of the Dramatic Club, a play was staged which proved a great success. The house was well packed with Greensboro supporters of the High School. Those present will long remember the demure Priscilla and the awkward Miles Standish; the well-trained choruses were unique features of the comic opera. An orchestra, composed of Greensboro’s best talent, added much to the production. One chorus especially rang through the ears of all who heard it. for that catchy tune, “Love is Life,” was hummed on the streets the day after the play. 101 The best talent of the High School was selected when the characters in the opera were chosen. Even though the actors were amateur, they displayea real talent. There is no need of telling the story of the play. Mr. Longfellow ' s story, relating Captain Miles Standish’s fate in wooing Priscilla, was modernized. This made the play humorous, but there was no change in the original plot. Special mention should be made of the ability which Miles S tandish, John Alden, the clry-witted Erasmus, Priscilla, and Katonka, the Indian maiden, displayed in acting their parts. On the whole, the play was rather remarkable for a high school production. CAST OF CHARACTERS Miles Standish . Robert Irvin Stephen John Alden ... Neal Jones Gilbert ... Erasmus .

The play, which was one of the most successful home-talent produc¬ tions ever given here, was given for the benefit of the Annual. The leading I arts were taken by the most talented people of the town, while the choruses and dances were supported by the High School students. The brilliant cos¬ tumes and beautifully trained dances made a charming background for the clever little play. Each night the house was packed by Greensboro people, who voted “Katcha-Koo” a big success. SYNOPSIS ACT I In Maharajah’s private temple of Buddha in Rasputin, India, there is great excitement because Katcha Ivoo, the Holy Fakir, has stood motionless for a week, evidently communing with Buddha. His standing so annoys Maharajah that he orders Solejah and Lubarah, two priestesses, to ally their powers in getting him out of the trance. While they are doing this, Harry and Dick, two Americans, come into the temple to investigate. They see Katcha Ivoo standing in his strange manner and are asked by the girls to try to awaken him. Solejah brings out her husband’s magical clothes and sells them to Dick and Harry. They then put 102 the garments on Katcha Koo and this succeeds in awakening him. Upon awakening he begins to make love to Maharajah’s wives and this makes Maharajah very angry. Dolly and Prudence, with their mother, Mrs. Gaddin, three Americans, enter and are welcomed by Maharajah. Dick and Harry immediately fall in love with Prudence and Dolly, and Katcha Koo makes love to the two young girls as well as to Mrs. Gaddin. Maharajah then becomes infuriated because the Holy Fakir is trying to win his wives’ affections. He tells Dick and Harry that they must either take the magical garments off of Katcha Koo or else be poisoned. However, he is afraid of offending the High Fakir so he says that Harry’s and Dick’s work must he accomplished in such a way so that Katch Koo will not become angry. Mrs. Gaddin invites the whole crowd to America to visit her. ACT II Dick and Harry are jealous of Katcha Koo, who has won the love of Dolly and Pru¬ dence. They decide that they must get him out of the Italian vest that works such charms. They get two Indian girls to make love to him and to ask him to let them sew up his vest. Just as he unbuttons the last button and is ready to slip it off, he sees Maharajah going away with his wives, so he rebuttons his vest and follows them. Then Harry decides that the only way in which to trick him into taking off the vest is to get a room intensely hot. The room is heated to an almost unbearable temperature and Katcha Koo is enticed into it. There he pulls off his coat and vest and turns out to he Mrs. Gaddin’s husband, whom she thought was dead. Finding this out, Dick and Harry salute their father-in-law, and Maha¬ rajah takes a back seat. 103 “Katcha Koo” Kodaks Commercial Club Colors : Lavender and White Flower : Violet Motto: We Mean Business OFFICERS THOMAS NEAL .

The business men of Greensboro, who have become interested in the work of the Club and the department, have brought the experience of the outer world to its members, by giving practical and helpful talks, and the American Exchange National Bank, in particular, by establishing and conducting a school of banking. The members of the Club, as a result of their own efforts and practical finance, have added materially to the equipment of the department and have defrayed the expenses of the State Typewriting Contest. Typewriting Contest The State Tvpewiiting Contest will be held in Greensboro on May 6th. Mr. J. N. Kimball, of New York, Manager of International Contests, will manage the contest this year.

Isabel Cone was elected student head to work in cooperation with Miss Detwiler and several of the other teachers active in this phase of athletics. More than seventy-five girls have hiked this year, as it is an excellent way for girls who are not gifted in other games to make points. A few girls hiked as far as fifty miles during the first semester. Through the Hiking Club the girls have become acquainted with many unfamiliar parts of Greensboro. Many of the hikes have been across country, the girls trusting to luck to arrive at their destination, which so far they have always been able to do. One of the most enjoyable of all the hikes was the breakfast hike out to the Battle Ground. Forty shivering girls crawled out of bed at five-thirty one cold fall morning to walk six miles out into the country to cook wienies and other good things for breakfast. Naturally the travelers returned with forty pairs of blisters, but they were all ready to answer, “We’re all right!” to the query, “What’s the matter with us?” The Hiking Club of 1921-1922 has been voted a success by all hikers and we wish the same good luck (minus a little rain) to next year’s Club. 109 Science Club OFFICERS EDWIN PEARCE .

And that ex¬ pression does not convey the same kind of feeling it did when “Bug” meant a permanent resident in Morganton ! It is an expression of real admiration and awe, for “Bug” means a real honor won by hard work, observation, and ability to use the information learned in books and in nature. A “Bug” member of the Hi-Collect Club wears a “Bug” pin, a sign that he or she has gained 250 points by making walks, using “biology eyes,” or by making talks, using science as subject. Here’s hoping that each member of the Hi-Collect Club will become a “Bug” before this, the first year it has been organized, is over. 112 Latin Club Latin Club “Dcfessi FSneadce” Motto: “Tendimus in Latinm” JEFF FORDHAM .

At each meeting every member becomes a real Roman, for after “Princeps” Fordham calls the club to order, no English word is spoken until the club is adjourned. Latin speeches, poems, and songs are learned, and a real appreciation of Latin is gained. The most interesting and perhaps the most worthwhile accomplishment of the club was the play, Dido, the Phoenician Queen,” which was given in the spring. The play, picturing the tragedy of Dido, gave ample opportunity for dramatic art. It was well presented by the able cast of characters, judiciously directed by Miss Jane Summerell.

This term is ap¬ plied to the various sports in which the Earth- ians indulge. The student is an amateur athlete—that is, he does not participate in sport for pay, but for pleasure, for the fun of playing. The schools of Earth hold matches among themselves, and much inter¬ est is shown in them. The high schools pre¬ pare the student athletes for the hard and rigorous life of the college athletes and in that way raise the proficiency of this latter. There are numerous sports. The pages that follow are well illustrated and will ex¬ plain the nature of the games. One there is —and quite popular, too—which appears extraordinarily rude to us Marsians. It seems to consist in a mad desire to knock the opponents down and trample over them, the excuse being that one player attempts to carry a ball beyond a certain white line, a desire which usually meets decided opposition upon the part of his opponents. Another game they play at night in a big room. The play¬ ers try to throw a big ball through a large ring tacked upon the wall. Greensboro threw more of these “ringers” than any other team in their State division, winning from a combi¬ nation from a city, that will soon be well known on M ars, “Durham renowned the World around.” This phase of school life is very necessary, and it is being developed more and more each year in all the schools of the section of Earth. The danger here, as in the other side of school activities, is in the tendency to submerge the scholastic work at the expense of athletics. The Greensboro leaders, how ever, are carefully guarding against this, while at the same time they are giving ath¬ letics a prominent and deserved place in the school program. Carefully study the record left in the vari¬ ous sports and you will perceive that the stu¬ dents at this school have left for the past year a very satisfactory story. A thing I noticed in the brief time I was there with them— something that we should attempt to instill into our youths—was the fact that the schools of Earth are attempting more and more each day what they call “good sportsmanship. They care not so much for winning if in los¬ ing they have made a good fight for victory. Play the game for the game’s sake, and play it cleanly” is a very good rule. It is the ambition of the students of the Greens¬ boro school to be known as “good, clean, sports.” 119 Athletic Council QfcE.Ef ' t Ml La S HLEY Tir ftt-K. TAYLOR Fo� T ( ' PlV e«(« s ,,u H.

S. didn ' t come as near winning the State Championship in 1921 as she did the preceding year, still the season was considered a very successful one. The team played eight games, winning five of them and tying one. and the two were lost only after hard, hitter, clean struggles. Coach Rabenhorst put his men through some gruelling tests, and by the end of the season had developed a team of stalwart, strong boys who were not afraid of work and who had learned to practice self-denial. Preparatory to the football season, a football camp, lasting two weeks, was operated at Camp Hicone. The training received here proved to be of the greatest help to the boys when the season opened. G. H. S. 3-1—Guilford 7 Although this was the High School’s first game of the season, the team played good ball. The game was a little one-sided, as is indicated by the score, but at times the scrubs from Guilford College made us play some real ball in order to gain. Daniel in his new position at full-back was the best ground- gainer, while Taylor and J. Transou played stellar hall in the line. G. H. S. 28—D. M. 1. 0 G. H. S. was defeated by D. M. I. last year, but the High School lads were determined to get revenge this year. They got it 28 to 0. G. H. S. gained most of her g round by end runs and line plunges. P. Transou at quar ter-back ran the team well, running the right man and play at the proper time. The side liners declared it was the cleanest fought game they had seen in a long time. G. H. S. 7—YV. H. S. 0 Greensboro, for the first time of the season, went up against her old rival, Winston-Salem, and defeated her bv a score of 7—0, thus making it the third 125 victory against her in the last two years. She was defeated by G. H. S. twice last year. G. II. S. outplayed Winston in pract ically every part of the game, but due to the hard lighting put up by Winston were unable to score until the last part of the contest, when, after a series of end runs and line plunges, she crossed Winston’s goal for a touchdown. G. H. S. 7—D. H. S. 14 Greensboro went to Durham a little downhearted with the loss of P. Transou, who was unable to play in the game. The team was, however, sure of victory. Williams, sub-quarter, took Transou’s place and ran the team well, although he was not as experienced as the regular quarter. Greensboro did not show her real spirit until the last part of the game, when she realized that she had been over-confident and got down to real football, gaining at will. It was too late, however, and she had to be contented with 14 to 7 defeat. This first defeat of the season helped her to do away with some of the over-confi¬ dent spirit. G. H. S. 28—C. H. H. S. 0 Greensboro, by defeating Chapel Hill High School, had the honor of be¬ ing the first high school to defeat her in the past two years. One would think from the score that the game was a little one-sided, but old G. H. S. had to put up some hard fighting to pile up the points as she did. The teamwork of G. H. S. was the outstanding feature of the game. G. H. S. 7—W. H. S. 7 Greensboro, after defeating Winston before, went into this game a little over-confident, while inston went in with the determination not to let G. H. S. run over them a second time. Winston, bv a series of end runs and forward passes crossed our goal line for their touchdown. G. H. S. realized that thev had not been playing their best and buckled down to hard fighting. After some long end runs and line bucks, a forward pass, Daniel to Fordham, gave us our touchdown. I he game ended a tie, neither side being able to score after we made the last touchdown. 127 nHnH G. H. S. 21—C. H. S. 6 Greensboro met Charlotte on Charlotte’s ground for the first champion¬ ship game. Both teams, eager to stay in the championship series, started the game oft ' with fiery determination to win. Charlotte, with several trick plays and forward passes, secured their first and last touchdown, failing to kick goal. G. H. S., after the first quarter, found it easy to gain on their opponents and piled up two touchdowns, making the score 14 to 6 in our favor. An interest¬ ing feature of the game was P. Transou’s line plunge, beginning when the final whistle blew. The rules state that when the final whistle is blown the team holding the ball is given time to complete the play before the game is ended. P. Transou kept going, dodging this fellow and stiff-arming that, until he had crossed Charlotte’s goal line for a touchdown, ending the game 21 to 6 in our favor. Another feature of the game was the spirit that Captain Taylor and his ten warriors exhibited. G. H. S. 7—W. H. S. 23 Greensboro, still with hopes of winning the State Championship, met Winston in High Point for the second game of the championship series. The side lines were crowded with men, women, boys, and girls, eager to see the game, which they knew would be a hard fought battle. Winston determined not to be put out of the championship fight again as was the case last year, started off the game with more pep than we thought them capable of display¬ ing. When the final whistle blew, Greensboro found herself out of the cham¬ pionship fight by a score of 23 to 7. The game was a clean, hard fought one from start to finish. CLYDE HENDERSON Right End Henderson is in every play. He is continually breaking into the opposing backfield and messing up its plays. Clyde is one of the best tacklers in the State, fighting to the final whistle. 129 COLON FORSYTHE Right Guard Varse is a tower of strength in the line. He is in every minute of play and when the opposing team has backed old G. H. S. up to the door, Varsity can always be depended on to give the best in him to hold that line. Varsity develops in football every year and we are glad to say he will be with us for two more years. ANDREW BELL Left Half-hack Andy is one of the best ground-gainers on the team. His receiving of forward passes bears the stamp of genius. Many a touchdown has been made possible by his forward pass receiving. As a kick returner Bell is excelled by few. NEAL JONES Right Half-hack Although this is Neal’s first year, he has proven himself a good football player. He fights hard all the time and is in every play. Jones shows promise of developing into a player of the first order. “JEFF” FORDHAM Right Half-hack “Jeff” is also making his first bow, but nevertheless handles himself like a seasoned veteran. Jeff” is extremely active in the breaking up and receiv¬ ing of forward passes. NORMAN COOPER Manager Tbe managing ability of Cooper has stood out like a beacon light through¬ out the season. “Coop” is always on the job getting the best possible condi¬ tions for the team and looking after their every need. 130 PAUL TRANSOU Quart cr-bock Transou has been running our team for two years and it is probably need¬ less to say that it could not have been run any better. Transou has the knack of running the right play at the right time. This, con trasted with his ability to pass accurately, skirt the end, and hit the line, makes him one of our most val¬ uable men. Greensboro regrets to lose him this year. JOE TRANSOU Left Tackle “Jody,” our all-State tackle for 1920, is a tower of strength in the line. His offensive ability in opening up holes, combined with his efficiency in smear end runs and over-tackle plays, makes him invaluable to any team. “Jody” has still another year with the G. H. S. Squad. GEORGE TAYLOR (Captain) Center George Taylor, Captain for 1921 and Captain-elect for 1922, is a fighting center. On the offense, when only a few yards were needed for first downs, the supporters of the Purple Whirlwind call for a run over center and he never failed to make it possible to make the necessary yards, and more. On the de¬ fense, he is a tower of strength in the line and, literally speaking, smothers every play headed for center. G. H. S. is proud to say he will be back for next year. The Winston Chronicle, in picking an All-Western team, selected Tay¬ lor as Center. GARLAND DANIELS Full-back Too much cannot he said of Daniels’ playing. The needed few yards for a touchdown or first downs are always entrusted to Dan’s making, and he always comes across with the goods. “P ig Dan” with his pile-driving force 131 and speed is considered the ground-gainer of the team. His kicking and for¬ ward passing are not overshadowed, however, by his running, and these three qualities make him a triple threat to any team. “Big Dan’’ was picked as full¬ back for All-Western team. WILLIE GREENE Left Guard Under all kinds of difficulties “Buck” can always be found holding down his position with that dogged, good-natured determination that characterizes everything he does. Willie is a fellow that says little and does lots, as any one will testify that has seen him play. In our opinion, the position to the left of center could be filled no better. Right Tackle “Bunion” is the old reliable. Very few, if any t , get by him, and when a play is called over right tackle you can always see “Bunny’s hefty form clear¬ ing the way. Some say that “Bunny” is nearsighted, but very few of his op¬ ponents could help testifying that he generally gets what comes his way. EARL SELLARS Left End T his is Sellars’ first year and he did credit to himself. “Dude” never lets anything come over him, and he has nipped many a well-directed play in the bud. Near the middle of the season Earl took a regular place at end. filling Hinkle’s place, who retired on account of injuries. 132 ■ f . � r Miss Frances Rankin Sponsor 133 Basket-Ball H. W. PARKS .

The season opened December 15th with High Point High, whom G. H. S. easily defeated. They seemed a little oft for several games after this and did not hit their real stride until the middle of the season. Coach Park, with the State Championship in view, kept his husky squad of men under some heavy drilling. Greensboro met Trinity High School at Guilford College on February 18th for the first game of the championship series. Greensboro’s team working together defeated her by a score of 49 to 42, thus 1 lacing Captain Britton and his men one step nearer the State Championship. By defeating Trinity High School, Greensboro was scheduled to play Bur¬ li ngton, who was also defeated. Before journeying to Chapel Hill, Greens boro had one more team to defeat at Guilford College. The Reidsville five was a strong team but they could not stand up against Captain Britton and his warriors. On Wednesday, March 8th, Coach Park left for Chapel Hill with his squad of players, where they were scheduled to play Churchland High that night. Though Greensboro was a little shaky about this game, nevertheless she determined to win it, and did so after a hard fought game. Only two more teams stood in their way for State Championship. They were Charlotte and Durham, the latter having already won the Eastern Championship. Char¬ lotte and Greensboro still had to contest for the Western Championship. On the night of March 9th, Greensboro met Charlotte to decide the Western Championship. The Gym at Chapel Hill was packed with rooters for both sides. Greensboro started off full of pep and kept the lead until she lost Dan¬ iels and Seburn on account of fouls. Charlotte got a 2-point lead and Greens¬ boro only by hard fighting finally caught up and defeated Charlotte by a score of 26 to 24. This decided the Western Championship. Two teams were left contesting for the State Championship: Durham and the winners of the West¬ ern Championship. Some said that Durham could not be defeated, while others banked on Greensboro. The two contestants met in the Gym for the final rime. But, to make a long story short, Greensboro nosed out as State 136 Champion by a score of 28 to 20. She outplayed Durham in every phase of the game, and worked successfully the five-man defense for which Durham was not prepared. For the first time in the history of the High School Greens¬ boro won the State Championship in basket-ball. Much credit is due Coach Parks and Captain Britton for the way they handled the team. Williams, star guard, was elected Captain of next year’s five, and he is expected to dupli¬ cate the work of this year ' s captain in turning out a championship outfit. Champions aitO jfuture Champions HAROLD SEBURN Here is a fellow who never misses a practice and who has never been known to let anything come between him and basket-ball. However, no one doubts the good of all this stinting and sacrificing when Harold is seen out on the floor in action, for he has done old G. H. S. proud in every game played this year. One of his most noticeable traits is that he always keeps a cool head and refrains from losing his temper even under the most difficult con¬ ditions. JOE BRITTON When the other hoys see their valiant Captain throw goal after goal and make such brilliant plays, how can they help from following in his victorious footsteps? For three years Joe has put his very best into basket-ball and the result of it all is that he has the honor of being Captain of the first Greens¬ boro Boys’ Basket-Ball Team to win the State Championship. KENNETH WILLIAMS There are not two better guards in the State than Kenneth and his part¬ ner. No man on the team has worked harder and more consistently than Kenneth. He kept the other team from scoring while his forwards were piling up the score for G. 11. S. He can come so near guarding two men that it scares both of the men. “Knot’s” the Captain for next year and he’s the man for it. 138 CLYDE HENDERSON The forward who can throw enough goals on Clyde to win a game is some forward. He is on his man all the time and if another man comes along he can handle him for a while, too. He also finds the basket once in a while for a few extra points for his team. GARLAND DANIELS Big Dan,” the tower of strength and never failing bulwark of the team, has played in every game this season. His splendid physique and keen alert¬ ness have made him very apt in breaking up passes and in throwing goals from every conceivable angle. The team feels extremely fortunate in being able to count on Garland for next year. 111)9 JAMES WILKINS Jimmie is one of those calm, level-headed fellows who can be put into a game at any minute and relied upon to do the right thing at the right time. The way he has stuck to the team through thick and thin and his devotion for his favorite sport make us regret that we’ll lose him this vear. WORTH WILLIAMS Although he wasn’t a regular fellow on the team, he was a regular fellow always and ready to do his part when needed. And it is perfectly safe to say that in several games that he has been called upon to help, he has helped to make his team win. A good substitute makes the first team man work harder. Such is ' Worth. FRANKLIN GOODWIN If the present bespeaks the future Greensboro will have a star player in Goodwin next year. Though this is the first year he has gone out for the 139 team, he has (lone remarkably well and after the way in which he filled the big center’s place was seen, it is not doubted that he will make a name for himself on the team during the next two years lie has in G. H. S. EARL SELLARS Earl is one of those second string men who has made the first team what it is by a natural quickness and a keen eye. He usually makes his plays com¬ plete surprises to his opponents. If he keeps up his present record he will no doubt be one of the mainstays of the team of ’23. CHARLES HARRISON If “Charlie” only had a little more of the bone, muscle, and strength that “Big Dan” has, lie would make the best forwards in the State keep on the move. According to good authority, he has basket-ball in him and a head to put it out. Next year “Charlie” will be found ready to fill one of the vacancies that will lie made by this year ' s men leaving. MANAGER JEFF FORDHAM Jeff, with his calm, rational manner and his business-like ways, has been an ideal Manager for the glorious Championship Team. He has always gotten the best possible conditions for his men and has helped G. H. S. maintain her high standard of clean playing in every way. 140 Girls’ Basket-Ball Team Girls’ Basket-Ball MISS DRY . Coach NELLIE IRVIN . ..Manager DORIS STINNETT .

On January 13th the Greensboro quintet showed Winston High School and Raleigh High School that they could master any situation. In the first game both Winston and Greensboro went on the floor with a dash, but soon Winston cooled down under Greensboro’s fast guards, while a neat score was piled up by Greens¬ boro ' s forwards. At the final blow of the whistle the score stood 45-1 in favor of Greensboro. When Raleigh and Greensboro went on the floor each team realized that there was a hard fight ahead of it. The game was very ex¬ citing, a goal for one side then the other, and kept the crowd in an uproar all the time. The outcome of this was 21—19 for Greensboro. On Januarv 13th the local girls defeated Raleigh High School 20—19 in one of the hardest fought and fastest games of the season. Both teams ran neck and neck and it was not until the last few minutes of the game that either was certain of victory. In the next game, which was plaveol in Greensboro, the G. H. S. girls de¬ feated Danville High School with a score of 29—11. The Greensboro girls had an early lead and held it throughout the contest. With Carlotta Johnson shooting with unusual accuracy and the entire team playing and passing well, the score mounted up to a 17-1 margin at the end of the first half. In the second half Carlotta shot eight field goals and Grey Fetter and Doris Stinnett also played exceptionally well. On January 21st, G. H. S. again defeated W. H. S. in a game that showed that the Winston girls were no match for the Greensboro team. In this game Doris Stinnett shot three goals for Greensboro. In another hard fought game G. H. S. defeated Charlotte High School with a score of 23—14. Greensboro did some pretty passing while Charlotte had trouble getting hold of the ball at all. Keeping possession of the ball almost the entire second half, Greens¬ boro worked the play down to her end of the court and fed to Doris Stinnett and Carlotta Johnson, each of whom shot five field goals. The Greensboro quintet, which it seemed had forgotten how to lose a game—if it ever did know how—made its twentv-third straight victory on 143 February 18th, when it defeated Reidsville High School 35—15. The score tells the story; it was Greensboro from start to finish. The speedy work of the entire team, fast, accurate passing, clever guarding, and nice shooting, was too much for the visitors, who worked hard and at times showed tiptop form. In the game Carlotta Johnson shot from all angles and nothing could stop her—for she dropped ten balls through the ring. On February 17th the girls went to Asheville and Morganton, coming home with two more victories on their string. After decidedly bad playing of both teams, Greensboro found herself and, by good passing and swift playing, defeated Asheville 24—19. The score with Morganton being 52—1, it is not necessary to say anything of the game. Greensboro started in the lead and ended the same way. After again defeating Reidsville on their own ground with a score of 20—18, the squad went to Durham to play the first game of the championship series. From the ‘time the Raleigh and Greensboro teams went on the floor it was a real battle. The game was hotly fought all the way through. The first quarter ended 8—5 in favor of Greensboro, but in the second quarter the Raleigh girls rallied and at the end of the first half the score tied 12—12. In the last half the Raleigh girls showed better passing and at the end of the game the score stood 23—20 in favor of Raleigh. Carlotta Johnson starred for Greensboro, shooting four field goals and seven fouls. This last game eliminated Greensboro from the championship series, but it has been truly said that Greensboro High School really has a championship team. The scores speak for themselves—ten straight victories this season before one loss. This loss cannot be contributed to lack of work, for Miss Dry put them through some gruelling work all season. It just happened—Greens¬ boro lost, but she was a game loser. “To brag little—to show well—to crow gently, if in luck—to pay up, to own up, and to shut up, if beaten—are the virtues of a sporting man.” 144 r X% f ' ■ ’ 1 f 3 Class Basket-Ball Senior DORIS STINNETT ..

This was the first of the interclass games. On December 16th, the Juniors defeated the Sophomores, and on December 17th the Freshmen were again overwhelm¬ ingly defeated by the Juniors, 38—14. This eliminated the Freshmen from the series. The Seniors were eliminated when they were defeated by the fast Sophomore team with a score of 3-1—26. The final game was played at the Y. M. C. A. on the night of the 20th. The teams were evenly matched and when the final whistle blew there was a tie. The Sophs then won by a margin of one goal in the additional five minutes. The Sophomores ' title was, however, disputed by the Juniors, on the ground that the rule as originally ordered provided for a final game between the two highest in the preliminary contest. This protest resulted in a game in which the Juniors were victorious by a score making them the champions of the school. This is the first year in the history of the High School that so much inter¬ est has been taken in class basket-ball. Over fifty girls went out for places on the first or second teams and every girl worked hard. A clean spirit of rivalry was developed between the classes, anti each Coach worked hard for her team to be the winner. Tkack Team Track HOUGH beginning the season with the loss of four of the stars of last year, the track squad of the High School, about thirty-five strong, began daily practice at the old ball park. Harold Lashley, a dash man, was elected Captain by the squad and intensive training was begun. Neal Jones, Robert Wilkins, Howard Cagle, and Harold Lashley made the first trip to Durham to take part in an indoor meet. Since the season was not far advanced, the lack of training told heavily on the men and the relay was the only event in which the High School registered. I ' he Greensboro High School track season for 1922 opened with the first State meet at Guilford College on April 1st. Coach Purrington’s squad, com¬ posed chiefly of inexperienced men, captured second place. The first position being captured by the Burlington track squad. This meet was run off on a very wet and slow track and for that reason no exceptional time was made. Bell, running the mile, however, won by a quarter of a lap margin and was pushed at no time during the race. Daniel won the first place in the discus with a heave of one hundred six feet six and one-half inches; first place in the high jump at five feet two inches, and third place in the shot put. Lovell won second in the century race, while Wyrick pushed Gonis, of Burlington, in the two-twenty-yard dash, Thomas scored in the four hundred forty yard dash, while Newell came in strong in the eight hundred eighty yard run. After a week’s intensive training, the team journeyed to Chapel Hill for the State Meet. The men making the trip were Lashley, for the hundred-yard dash, Wilkins, for the two hundred twenty yard dash, Koenig and Thomas for the quarter, Cagle for the hurdles, Bell for the mile. Bill Newell and Bar¬ ker for the half-mile, Harrison for the broad jump, McIntosh for the shot put, Daniel for the shot put, discus, javelin, and high jump. Out of an entry of twelve schools, Greensboro captured third place with twenty-one points. Chapel Hill winning first place and Burlington second place, with twenty-eight and twenty-seven points, respectively. 150 Bell broke both the mile and the half-mile record for the high schools. In the mile run Bell broke his own record of last year by three seconds, making the distance in 4:51. In the half Bell lowered Ranson’s record made in 1916 by two seconds. He negotiated the distance in 2:11. Newell took fourth place in this race. Daniel scored second in the high jump and discus, but failed to register in the shot or javelin. Thomas and Koenig both ran in the four-forty, Thomas taking second place. Though the record for the year was not as bright as in former times, the members of the squad showed that they have the ability to run, and they should make a name for themselves and old G. H. S. in future vears. 151 Tennis During the past year great strides have been taken in tennis and it now holds an important place in athletic activities of the school. At the beginning of school a lively and interesting contest, into which all the best players of the school entered, was held. It was conducted under the able management and supervision of Harold Seburn, Student Manager, and Coach W. E. Giles. A separate tournament was held in each class and the winner of each met to decide the champion of the school. The winner of Freshman singles was William Scott, while Jack Causey and Scott won out in doubles. The Sophomore Class showed a great deal of interest and a lively spirit of rivalry in their tournament. Both boys and girls entered it in large numbers. Clement Penn triumphed in the singles, and Meyers and Causey were winners in the doubles. The girls’ singles were won by Margaret Stockton, and the doubles by Flax McAlister and Eunice Stamey. The Junior singles were won by Clinton Jackson, while Jackson and William Rightsell were victorious in the doubles. Helen Clapp won the girls’ singles, and Elizabeth Simpson and Louise Smith the doubles. Boys’ singles in the Senior Class were won by James Wilkins, and Wilkins and Seburn were win¬ ners in the doubles. The Senior girls’ singles were won by Doris Stinnett, and the doubles by Nellie Irvin and Stinnett. The second stage of the tournament was full of enthusiasm and skillful playing. At this time Scott defeated Penn and Wilkins was victorious over Jackson. Scott then won over Wilkins in the finals, and was thereby declared winner in the boys’ singles. Causey and Scott lost to Meyers and Causey in the doubles. Owing to the arrival of winter the last matches were never played. Smith and Stinnett won their titleship as winners of the girls’ doubles when they defeated first Stinnett and Irvin and then McAlister and Stamey. The singles were won by Stinnett, who had to overcome first Clapp and then Stockton. Work in tennis was again started bright and early in the spring. Coach Giles started a squad of men to working earnestly from which he selected his 152 Varsity Team. After several hard work-outs, the first match was played with Burlington. At this time Sehurn and Wilkins lost to Jones and Garett, of Burlington, by the score of 6—1,6—3. In singles, after a hard battle, Sebum lost to Jones by the score of 6 —2, 6—3. In another singles match, Meyers was victorious over Garett. t he score of -I—6, 6—1, 6 — 1 tells the story. The first week of April brought around the most important tennis event of the year—the State High School Tennis Aleet at Chapel Hill. G. H. S. was represented by Wilkins and Seburn in the doubles and by Meyers in the singles. The team had rather hard luck, as the weather prevented them from having any practice. Greensboro met the Raleigh team, composed of Bell and Hawkins, which won out over Seburn and Wilkins. The game was a hard fought one and, though the Raleigh boys outclassed the Greensboro rep¬ resentatives, still there was pretty playing exhibited on both sides. The score was 7—5, 6—3. Meyers put up a desperate fight in the singles, but was over¬ come by Sharpe, of Wilson, by a score of 6—2, 6 —3. The boys felt fully repaid for their trip to Chapel Hill, for they had each put up a valiant fight and had had a grand and glorious time down at the Hill. This vear’s work in tennis has shown that there is some splendid material in G. H. S. which can be counted upon to do Greensboro proud in the 1923 tennis meet. 153 J55553fitTur .i a oS ' . o:■ c o ' i}5 g c .

S., although having won only a few of the number of games played, has thus far shown some fine playing and good sportsmanship. Having lost a great deal of last year’s material, it was left to Mr. Charles Phillips, our Coach, to whip into shape some raw material for the making of the team. He has been very successful in doing this. Greensboro lost the first game of the season to Pleasant Garden, due to the inexperience of some of the players. The team should be given credit in the game with Oak Ridge. They held the heavy Oak Ridge sluggers to a small score and scored on the prep team, being the first high school team to score on them in a number of years. G. H. S. showed her real ability in the game with High Point High, de¬ feating the strong Pointers 12 to 5. The team pounded the ball to every cor¬ ner of the field and almost played an errorless game. In a very close game with Winston, our old rivals, we were defeated by the close score of 4 to 3, a mishap in field giving Winston the earning run. The Winston fellows were outplayed in every phase of the game by the Gate City players. Greensboro continued her good playing by defeating Mebane team 30 to 2. The game was a one-sided affair but gave our sluggers some good batting practice. After the time of victory came the tune of defeat. The strong Durham team de¬ feated us by a score of 7 to 4, due to a great many errors on our part. G. H. S. did not keep this erroring streak with them long, as is shown by the game with Carolina Freshmen. G. H. S. held them to a 4—2 score and won the praise of many of the students down at Hill. The Greensboro boys continued a winning streak, taking a game from Asheboro, Winston, and Mebane. It is the general belief of the many followers of the Gate City team that she will show up well in the championship series, which starts soon. Much credit is due our Coach, Mr. Phillips, for the way he has coached our team. He is always working for the betterment of the team. Manager Temko has been a faithful servant of the team, arranging games and looking out for the material of the team. i ii jMjj. The Girls’ Athletic Association HE Girls ' Athletic Association of the High School has made notable progress in the past three years. During the years 1918-1920, under the careful and thoughtful coaching of Miss Mary Morrow and Mr. William York, and under the leadership of Captain Nellie Irvin, the team came through with flying colors, winning the State Championship. Hie year 1920-21 was a star for the girls. Mr. D. R. Price, realizing the opportunities in the field of girls’ athletics, organized the work as a regular department of the High School, with Miss Morrow as head of the organiza¬ tion. Under her leadership a definite policy was followed and great progress was made. The aim of the movement has been to extend the field of ath¬ letics to every type of girl. With this in view, Swedish Drill, under the cap¬ able instruction of Miss Innabelle Coleman, was started. Along with this, a Folk Dancing Class was organized and instructed by Miss Coleman, from N. C. C. W. This year the basket-hall team, which was led by Captain Nellie Irvin, was again a victorious one, winning the honors as the previous year, ddie team felt that much credit for this successful season’s basket-ball work was due Miss Nellie Dry, who stuck to the team through thick and thin. On the first of May, G. 11. S. had a Field Day for the first time in the history of the High School. Many new forms of athletics were introduced on this day. Among these were baseball, volley-ball, relays, races, various forms of throws, and last but not least. May Pole Dances. Each class entered many girls in all the contests. But when all the points were added up, who should have won the field event but the Class of 22 , which deserved all the honors! Doris Stinnett held the highest number of first places. Before the close of school the time seemed ripe for a thorough discussion and investigation of the Point System. The system was presented to the girls and was enthusiastically received. For a long time the need of such a system had been felt in school. During past years it was possible only for girls who played basket-ball and made the team to win letters, and scarcely 161 more than six or seven girls won letters in a season. Therefore, those inter¬ ested in the physical welfare of the Greensboro girls believed that by a Point System more girls would become interested in athletics. The year 1921-22 has been the best, so far, in the history of the Girls’ Athletic Association. In the early fall the Point System was formally adopted and has been successfully operated since then. The system is something on this order: When a girl has two hundred points she is entitled to a school letter, which for Greensboro would be “G,” and when she has won four hun¬ dred points she becomes the proud possessor of the State letter, “G. N. C.” This system includes many forms of athletics, such as basket-ball, volley-ball, tennis, field day events, swimming, a season’s training according to basket-ball training regulations, hiking, and citizenship. No girl is eligible to win either letter until she has received a certain number of points.in citizenship. A girl may select any combination of the activities to win her points, that she desires, and much care was put on deciding how many points should be given a semes¬ ter’s work in each. Much value is placed on the “G” letter, for it shows that its wearer had to do a great deal of hard, consistent work in order to obtain it. More points can be obtained through a season’s work in basket-ball than in any other way and the maximum number here is ninety. Therefore, not even two season’s work in basket-ball would give a girl enough points to entitle her to a “G.” And, of course, a “G. N. C.” is to be prized just twice as highly. The Greensboro High School Athletic Association has the distinction of being the first school to award the State monogram. “G. N. C.,” under the new Point System, which has been adopted throughout the State. In the early spring four girls won the “G. N. C.” monogram. Nellie Irvin and Doris Stin nett won their 400 points in various ways. The sport which gave them the most points was basket-ball, and both girls distinguished themselves in the tennis tournaments. Nellie won a good many points in swimming. Carlotta Johnson’s majoring sport was basket-ball. Emelia Sternberger, the fourth winner of the “G. N. C.,” won her points through hiking and swimming. Thir¬ teen other girls were awarded the “G” letter. 162 Field Day IELD DAY, which was held on the second of May at Cone Park, was a big gala day for the High School girls. Both Coaches and girls had worked hard and strenuously to make this the crowning event in the work done in the girls’ ath¬ letics this year. Strange sights were seen all around the school grounds for several weeks preceding the big event. During any time of the day girls could be seen racing breathlessly up and down behind the barns, training for the dashes, or making high jumps or engaging in several kinds of throws. When the day arrived a good deal of friendh rivalry had been worked up among the classes; this resulted in some of the keenest competition the girls have ever shown. The first of the events were the 50 and 75-yard dashes. Splendid records were made in both of these. Elizabeth Darling, Freshman, won first place in both dashes, while Ellen Stone, of the Seniors, came second. The third places were captured by the Sophomores, with Regina Beck coming out third in the 50-yard dash and Fannie Anderson in the 75-yard one. Two amusing races were the next events. The first one, a potato race, was won by Mary Porter, a Senior. Hattie Webb, a Sophomore, came in sec¬ ond, while Marjorie Cartland. Junior, took third place. The 50-yard obstacle race proved side-splitting to both spectators and participants. The obstacles that had to be overcome were manv and varied. This event went to the Juniors, when Catherine Cox took first place. Lucile Boone and Catherine Schenck, both Sophomores, came second and third. The throw ' s came next on the program. The basket-ball target throw was won by Garnet Gregory, Freshman; Margaret Sweeney, Junior, second; Lil¬ lian Clegg, Sophomore, third. The Juniors proved victorious in the basket¬ ball goal throwing; Carlotta Johnson won first place and Margaret Patterson second. Doris Stinnett, of the Seniors, came out third. The first place in the long distance basket-ball throw was won by Margaret Meyers, Sophomore, who threw the ball 59 feet 2 inches: Nellie Irvin, Senior, came next, with 5,5 163 feet 2 inches; Elzie Fluharty, Sophomore, was next, with 53 feet. The Sen¬ iors captured the first place in the long distance baseball throw when Doris Stinnett threw the ball 147 feet 10 inches; Elsie Fluharty followed with 134 feet 7 inches; Margaret Meyers scored third with 130 feet 11 inches. The relays were class events and were all very exciting and close. In the basket-ball relay the Juniors came first, while the Freshmen were victorious in both the color and the rope relays. The day closed with the championship volley-ball and baseball—and the Freshmen in volley-ball. At the conclusion of the day it was found that the Sophomores had piled up the most points. This entitled them to the silver loving-cup, which was won by the Class of ’22 last year. The rank of the classes was: Sophomores—?, Freshmen—26; Seniors—20. First prize for the highest number of points went to Elizabeth Darling, who made ten points. Ellen Stone, Doris Stinnett, and Margaret Meyers all made six points apiece. 164 SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Now, fellow members of the Club, you are perhaps familiar, to some degree at least, with the workings of the typical high school of the Earthian division called America. You have seen the scholastic side and have noticed that it is divided into four principal groups called classes. The various points about these classics, their class histones, their pic¬ tures, and the different essentials in their class life have been discussed and explained to you. The other phase of school work—stu¬ dent activities—has been revealed and its importance, already enumerated, both from the literary viewpoint and the viewpoint of athletics. Your idea up to this point, however, has been impersonal. You have studied the stu¬ dent’s work, but you have not understood much about the student himself. For that reason I was careful to get some¬ thing that will aid you in understanding the student. And in learning the high school student you will come to know the grown-ups of Earth, for the latter are only “children grown tall.” It is a maxim on Earth that to learn a people you must examine them while they are in their lighter moods. They are off guard, so to speak, and are natural. And in order to fully estimate them, I have brought back to Mars a few examples of their humor. It has been written by the students—most of it about themselves—with an intent “not to wound, but to censure with laughter.” Per¬ haps I realize that you will still get a some¬ what impersonal idea of their personalities, yet it is the best I could accomplish. I would have been delighted to have brought with me, upon my return to you, one of the students, or still better, a member of the Faculty, as an example of humor. Some of them are huge jokes. d he superintendent, however, could not accompany me and I was determined to bring nothing but the best. So, with this somewhat rambling attempt at explanation, I will turn the entire record over to you. I have, perhaps, omitted some very important points, but I believe you may get some information that will help you in the development to greater usefulness of our own schools, which is your purpose in meet¬ ing here. 165 Oh, Lord!

I have always endeavored to lead you over and not around dif¬ ficulties. I have given you the best that was in me, and from the look in your eyes 1 can see that you are grateful from the bottom of your hearts.” (Here the applause was so loud and prolonged that our president was obliged to call in the chief of police to quell the seething multi¬ tude. ) After the great tumult had been lulled. President Rawlins pro¬ ceeded : “Friends, your gratitude does me great good. I can hardly keep down my emotion.” (His great frame seemed to tremble all over, but he soon regained his control and continued.) “Classmates, we have gathered here for a purpose to-night. We have gathered to say good-bye to the great institution of learning that we have made world-famous. We have come to say good-bye to the scenes of our childhood, to tear ourselves away from the dear ones we love. We are now ready to face the wide world; ready to bear its trials and its ordeals; ready to share its glories, and bear its burdens. But, most of all, we are ready to help our fellow man. We are armed with the great advantage of a high school education. It is my fond¬ est wish that every member of the great and glorious Class of ' 22 will remember my teachings; the teach¬ ings of devotion to duty and, what is more, devotion to one another. “Now, comrades, 1 must bid you adieu. As the mighty Moses led the children of Israel out of the wilderness into the Promised Land so, 1 hope, T have led you out of the darkness of illiteracy and ignorance into the wonderful king¬ dom of the wise and the educated. We have finished our four years of bliss together. You now leave my protection and go forth into the world. I have done my best by you and I wish you success. That is all I can say.” Here our great president gave completely away to his feelings, and his massive shoulders shook with welled-up and overflowing- sentiment, while great drops of water streamed from his glisten¬ ing eyes. The great crowd was so spell¬ bound at the wonderful outburst of oratory they could do nothing but sit still and gap. Finally, however, Reverend Raymond Lanier pronounced the benediction and they wended their ways slow¬ ly homeward. It might be of interest to our readers to know that our super¬ intendent immediately ordered sev¬ eral hundred copies of President Rawlins’ address, to be studied in next year’s English course, along with A ashington ' s Farewell Ad- di ' ess and Webster ' s Bunker Hill Oration. “I Don ' t Care If I Do,” newest jazz hit, rendered a success by Charles Hinkle.

A PERFECT DAY (Continued from page 1) 8:35—“Essie, hurry up with my breakfast.” Finally she gets breakfast, and I, after hastily gulping down a bite or two, hit the highball for school. The bell rings, as I knew it would, just as I entered the build¬ ing, and I was in for an hour after school. Latin test! Whew! Nearly forgot, but off I whizz and get there in time to fail on the test. Next came Algebra, but, al¬ though the room did look like a funeral, three minutes Miss Mor¬ row said, “No test to-day.” Quieted by threat, we enjoyed a profitable study period and were fully able to meet our doom in the next period. On the way I gath¬ ered two aching shins, a bumped head, and two or three threats, but finally waded out of the me¬ lee of big, little, and middle-sized feet and entered History class. “Beck, Thomas Beck, you want to move up in front.” On 1 studied serenely, wholly unconscious of the doom that awaited me. After two or three more summons I realized that he was speaking to me, and remem¬ bering that we were studying the Great War, announced in a self- confident voice, “1914.” “Well, Beck, I suppose you had better report to 206 for a little study period this afternoon.” After being calmed down slightly by this, I went through the next period safely, but, of course, I was delivered the same old line of “A little more time on English wouldn’t do you any harm.” Ding-a-ling! ’Scuse me, ladies, but watch your step. This is the dinner period. Teachers are on every corner, dodging and plead¬ ing with the young race horses to stop at the same time. Dinner hour over and all aboard for the desert period.

Next stop — French period, everything perfect, but I was not able to escape the warning of “A little more time on French.” Our last stop in the regular school day is the chapel study period, but this period we are not to enjoy the stunts of the joy- makers because I’m going to library. However, after breaking a few rubs and having my seat changed once or twice, I caused the “War Hawk” to break a few chairs coming at me and sending me back to the study period. Finally the school day was over, but mine had just begun. Hoping for the best, I entered the tardy room and was relieved to find an easy teacher ( ' !). Feeling the need of sleep, I enjoyed a good nap and then went home to fin ish the day. It seemed to me before I could snap my fingers the day was over. I had had my supper, done all my lessons, and was ready for bed. “Mother, do you remember me te lling you how a dream I had last night ended ?” “No, Tom; how was it?” After telling her, I said, “I wish it would be finished, because I want to see what we’d do.” “Well, she replied, “I suppose it’s all right in a dream, but you’d find out only too soon if it really happened.” Soon after I dropped into a peaceful slumber and saved my dream for some other time.

The RE¬ FLECTOR is yours. Our parting wish is that it may really be something in your many memories of High School life. We wi sh to thank the many faithful friends who have made this publication pos¬ sible. First, we extend our thanks to the two Faculty Advisers, Miss Dorsett and Mr. Giles, without whose wise guidance this An¬ nual could never have been a success. To the other members of the Faculty, who have so cheerfully and willingly given their time and thought to this work, we say that we feel unable to express our appreciation for their services. Our sincerest thanks go out to the members of the Commercial Club who, night after night, have labored over the typ¬ ing of this book. We feel exceedingly grate¬ ful to the students of the school, to the busi ness men of the town, and to the other friends and patrons of this school who, by their help and kind encouragement, have done much to make our REFLECTOR what it is. As a closing word we say that our fondest hope is that this small volume may in some way increase your love and loyalty to old The Board of Editors.

It is just as valuable for many other ills too, especially for the daily hurts, aches, ailments, and annoyances that befall in athletics and outdoor life. For instance, how many of you “grads,” ex-football scrappers, know that Vicks applied over tired, sore and sprained muscles, soothes, relieves and puts pep and ginger into them ? If you have never used Vicks after a violent game or straining effort, try it. It is a good plan to take a jar whenever away from home — vacation, camp, or to college in the fall. Use it for sunburn, hay fever, poison oak, summer colds, burns, insect bites and stings, muscular soreness, sore throat, bronchi¬ tis, hoarseness and tonsilitis. Vicks is good insurance against serious illnesses arising from various cold troubles.
