We have worked to the best of our ability to make this edition a success and to pub- lish only what we consider would please our boosters most. CHANGES IN H. H. S. When we ascended the stairs at the opening of school last September, many changes greeted our eyes. The interior had been redecorated during the vacation period, new desks had been added, old ones revarnish ed and everything took on the appearance of being spick and span. The walls of the study hall had given up their greenish cast for a coat of cream color, the woodwork glistened with its brightly varnished surface and the old recitation seats at the front of the room had been removed. Soon after the opening of school six- teen new desks were added in this room as a result of the large enrollment. The classroom, which was formerly only one room, had been divided into two parts — one in which our new teacher, Miss Brooks, presided and the other in which Miss Charter takes her place. In Miss Brooks' room seats of entirely new type had been added. The curriculum has also been enlarged by the addition of English Grammar, Economic Geography, Economic Cit- izenship, Latin III and French III. When our school life was renewed last fall, we HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 7 missed the familiar faces of the class of ’31. How- ever, there were several more new pupils to take their places. One striking change in our school from the pre� ceding year is the seating arrangement of the pupils. Janet now occupies the front seat, but Jean has made no change. Mr. Northrop prefers that she still remain in the foremost row as in previous years. Maybe, when she becomes a senior, she, too, will have the privilege of a seat in the back of the room. Every pupil of Hammond High School has enjoy- ed reading each issue of the Alexandria Bay “ABC” as it has reached us. It is an interesting paper and we wish to extend our hearty congratulations to the Edi- torial Staff. HIGH SCHOOL Laughing girls and noisy boys, Absorbing all of Nature's joys. Teachers trying hard to teach, Students minds far out of reach— That's High School. Bright-eyed students with brilliant minds, Starry-eyed dumb-bells of all kinds. Crowded classrooms here and there. Between bells chaos everywhere — That's High School. Countless lessons hard to do. Reprimands for me and you. A place to spend each passing day, HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS And be out of our parents’ way — That’s High School. Yet, though we may shirk and fool, And do our best to break each rule, At High School. Let someone criticize its worth, And we’ll drive him right off the earth. It’s Our School! OUR ASSEMBLYS I think that one of the most important days of the week is Friday. This is not wholly due to the fact that school closes at three-thirty, but it is linked with the fact that we have Assembly. We often think that speaking before an audience is comparatively easy. When we attempt it, however, for the first time we are very much frightened. Each per- son who speaks has special training on the intended sub- ject. In our Glee Club we have a special music teacher who helps us. Our boys’ sextette and our girls’ quartet have become entertaining through the combined efforts of the teachers. In speaking or singing before a group we gain a certain amount of poise and self-confidence which is essential to every entertainer. After we have spoken or sung before a group, we appreciate what others do. The Assemblys break up the routine of the week and are generally looked forward to with much pleasure. I believe that our Assemblys are valuable to the students and not a waste of time for, as the saying goes, “School does not only prepare you for life, but is life.” —Jean Stiles. HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 9 WHAT’S RIGHT WITH OUR SCHOOL? Well, to begin with, the Sophomore Class is O. K. The basket ball teams are all right, although the girls seem to be a little backward. The boys have just fin- ished a fine season in which they made a splendid effort to “bring home the bacon.” Now to consider the teachers of the school. Mr. Northrop is a very pleasant principal unless you try to escape the little (3:45) session. Miss McClelland has a very admirable habit of coming to school early. Miss Charter is noted for her sincerity in trying to teach the Geography Class. Our worthy English teacher, Miss Brooks, assists in the Assembly programs by giving very amusing readings. The teachers all appear to be doing their best, in their struggle to enlighten the minds of the youth. The radio is the sunshine of the school as it bright- ens up our noon hours. When one considers the whole situation there seems to be everything right with Ham- mond High. —Robert Moncrief. “CLASS DISTINCTION” Whoever made the remark that a Freshman gets swell-headed? Why, he doesn’t even get a chance. How can a person get swell-headed who is hen-pecked and looked down upon by those smart Seniors? Last fall we were initiated. What fools those Sen- iors made of us Frosh! We were so embarassed when the rest of the pupils laughed at our expense! Oh, it was not love for the supposedly more intelligent Seniors that burned in our hearts that morning. Why must they 10 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS always pick on us little Freshmen ? The next event of the season was the Christmas din- ner. We all looked forward to that. Then, one day a notice was put up on the bulletin board. It read some- thing like this: “Freshmen girls are to serve the Christmas dinner. The Freshman boys will act as scavengers.” This was not quite as bad as being initiated but we didn't enjoy watching some one else eat all the jello. Some of us were kept busy carrying pie to the Seniors. We decided that they were the champion eaters of Ham- mond High School. Of course, our brains haven't developed very much yet. Why we're only babies (so the Seniors say). We toil away trying very hard to get honor marks for every quiz. We carry an armful of books home every night and study until our so-called empty heads begin to ache. A few weeks ago we, the Freshmen, got our revenge on the Seniors. We had them go before the Assembly, whisper, point to the clock, and pass notes. One of us said he thought it looked like a gathering of nuts! Long and loud laughed the Frosh! We were even. There are several kinds of nuts, but the fresh ones are always better than the older ones. Some day, I hope, we will be Seniors. Then we will remember how we felt when they initiated us and we will have pity on the Frosh of that year — may be. —Elsa Grant. ■ daf f m . . Vi inter He nr y ( Three Men U 12 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS THE DAY OF DAZE By Dorothy Conger A whir — the grating and grinding of brakes — the frightened scream of a child, and the sudden halt of a graceful limousine! A deathly silence of the hilar- ious group, gathered in the car, followed this outburst. In a flash, the girl at the wheel snatched open the door and gazed in horror upon the marble-like face of a small girl. The afternoon sun stretched its great, yellow fingers across the green park, filled with holiday loafers, ontc the white brow of the child, lying huddled in front of the automobile. A tremor passed over her meager little body, which, for a moment, strove to regain con- sciousness, then lapsed into passiveness again. Unmind- ful of her lovely tea frock, the girl gathered the child into her arms and gently placed her in the car. Steer- ing through the curious, gaping crowd, which had gath- ered, ever conscious of excitement, Anne Trezvant let out a burst of speed and flying by seemingly endless traffic cops, buildings and patches of green, which might have, at a decent speed, resembled land, she at length, came to a stop before the Mercy Plospital. With a flutter, a pair of pale eyelids flew open, re- vealing a pair of dark blue eyes, which seemed to be the largest part of the pinched, little face, which looked pathetically up at Anne, without recognition. They snapped shut and the child again passed into a state of unconsciousness. Anne stretched her stiffened muscles and rose to meet the approaching surgeon. “She will HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 13 never be able to walk,” was the verdict which met her straining ears. With a hopeless gesture, the girl made her way from the austere place of healing. The blue, morning sky cast its lazy reflection upon an artificial lake, bordering a sweet, old-fashioned gar- den. A few feet beyond this, the tracks of a recently- built railroad rose. Amid a bed of exquisite tea roses, a child, upon whose countenance was imprinted a sweet patient expression, reclined. A sparrow fluttered to her shoulder, where it rested a few mintues before con- tinuing its flight. Two squirrels approached her, eager for the breakfast she never failed to supply, all of which made it evident that she was well-acquainted with these woodland people. Her gaze wandered to the great, old mansion, a short distance from the garden. It seemed only a fantastic dream that she, an orphan girl, should be a participant of this magnificence. And yet, it must be reality — for as she gazed wonderingly about the grounds, her foster sister waved gaily to her, as she sped down the walk on her way to school. Five years sped by on golden wings of happiness for the little lame girl, until she reached her eighteenth birthday. She had become a cultured girl — a girl, marked with the stamp of wealth and good breed- ing. Although she was still chained to her wheel chair, she found comfort and joy in her beloved violin and spent many delightful hours with her old friends of the forest. To them, she was able to vent her hopes and despairs, which were much too turbulent to confide to a human being. Her foster parents' wealth had gained for her the care of famous surgeons, but the ultimatum was always the same: That there was about one chance in a thou- sand of her ever walking. They had predicted that by 14 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS patient and courageous struggling, she might accom- plish it, but these skilled men of medicine warned against it, since it might mean death. Cheerful though she was, it was a bitter cup to drain. She knew she could never enter into the bits of intimate gossip and experience, dear to the heart of every girl. She could not go to parties 01 dances, so enjoyed by the others, nor enjoy life to its fullest extent. One day, in the late afternoon, as she was enjoying her prison of beauty, a tantalizing shriek reached her ears. Her horrified gaze wandered past the little lake and riveted upon the inert figure of Anne, one foot caught fast in a tie of the railroad. What could she, a lame girl do ? was her desperate thought. In a few minutes the train would rush by, heedless of its work of destruction. A daring thought flashed through her mind. Should she risk being a hopeless invalid, even death, perhaps, by going to her sister's rescue? Her mo- ment of hesitation passed, she stepped from her chair, and by exerting great will power, managed to drag her- self closer to the girl. Far down the track, she perceiv- ed the approaching train. She sent up a fervent prayer for strength and courage. The train crept closer and and closer upon the straining figure of the terror-strick- en Anne. The lame girl's breath came in great gasps, her muscles stiffened and weakened with the strain. She was within two feet of Anne and she seemed powerless to go further. Tearing pains racked and threatened to destroy her overworked body. The train jumped toward her. Anne was but a dim speck. Great beads of perspiration stood out upon her white forehead. In- human sobs were involuntarily wrung from her, but with a superhuman effort she reached and freed Anne just as the train bore down upon them, and sped away into the distance, not realizing the near-tragedy, which had HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 15 just been averted. The lame girl laid her burden gently upon the ground and then gave in to her over-wrought nerves, as she sank to the ground in a sea of'blessed oblivion. When at last, she struggled her way back to life her happiness was made complete by the fact that, at last, after much miserable suffering, she would again be able to walk, to be a normal girl, revelling in joys, hith- erto unknown to her. THE UNEXPECTED MEETING “How's that, old man? “Pretty good, I’d say! “Will you go ? “Sure, where’s she live? “Oh, she’s staying with Helen. “Who’s Helen? “Oh, she’s the girl I take around to shows and dances. This was the conversation between Jack Manning and his friend, Jim Wills, after Jack emerged from a telephone booth. The telephone call had been for the purpose of calling a girl to go with Jim to the picture show the following evening. In another part of town the two other parties in- terested in the call were discussing the results of the talk. “Well, what do you think? I just had a talk with Jack and you and I are invited to the show tomor- row night, with him and a friend of his. “Interesting; who am I to go with? was Alice’s curious inquiry. “I’m sure I don’t know. Anyway, he called him Jim. 1.6 HAMMOND high happenings “I don't want to go with anyone of disreputable character, was th£ suspicious declaration of Helen's vis- itor. “Jack is a very nice fellow, and I don't think he would bring anybody of that sort to go with a friend of mine. He said that he was an old friend of his, on a vacation. I’m £ure he will be a nice man.” “Well, if that’s the case, I suppose it will be all right.” Helen was a nice girl who dressed plainly but al- ways neatly. She worked in a downtown store as a clerk. Her friend, Alice, was a rather flashily dressed person, who thought more of going to bridge games and tea parties than earning her living. She knew that her friend's home waS a good place to visit because Helen always provided a good time for anyone visiting her. The big night had come! Jack was calling Jim to hurry. It wad time to go. Jim, grooming his hair for about the tenth time, mumbled something about Jack always being in a hurry. When at last Jim came down- stairs, Jack had his car started and all ready to go. They arrived at a small house after about a five minutes ride. The boys stepped down from the auto, and walked brisk- ly up the steps. At last the door opened. Jack's first motion was to introduce Jim and Alice. “Miss Alice, he began, but the words froze on his lips as he saw the peculiar look on his friend Jim’s face. It was Alice who next spoke. Her puzzled voice asked, “Jim, what are you doing here?” “I thought you were with your Aunt Jane. “That makes no difference. I want to know why you are here, w s the impatient question of Alice. Jack and Helen looked at each other in amazement. “When you married me, ran on Alice's now angry voice, “I was youf one an(i only. Now you run off dur- HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 17 ing my absente and visit this fellow whom you call your friend. ” Jim tried to talk but was soon stopped. “Come with me,” was the angry order of Jim’s “one and only.” With that she took him by the collar and snatched him off the steps. She set off for the rail- road station at double quick time, with Jim following close behind her. Her high-pitched voice went rattling on as they walked along the street. The last sound heard by the bewildered pair on the steps was, “Catch me leaving you alone again, you worm.” —Harold Chase. HOW IT FEELS TO BE A SENIOR Webster says a “Senior” is one who is before or above others in age, dignity, rank or office, a student in his final year of high school or college. A “Senior” is all “it” and those of the lower classes are to him as seeds to a wind. “Senior” is often used to address a person of higher standard, as it is used in the Mexican and Spanish languages. The Seniors of H. H. S. are no Spaniards or Mexicans but they should be looked up to and respected by lower classmen. A Senior feels su- superior to those of minor standing. He is a privileg- ed character in school having access to use of the front door on Friday. If under classmen start a movement of which the Seniors do not approve, they may be re- quested to discontinue. Don’t worry, underclassman. You’ll be a “Senior,” too, someday — if you study hard enough. —Roger Craig. 18 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS THIS AND THAT THINGS YOU’LL NEVER SEE You may see wonders every day Up here at Hammond High. But there are some things you’ll never see, However keen your eye. For instance, now, there’s Albert, He keeps things fine and slick. But tell me, now, can he be seen Without a bone to pick? Prof. Northrup’s a fine fellow. The students say he’s slick. But when they try to put things over, Does he ever miss a trick ? Did you ever see Miss Mac get weighed? Did you ever see Miss Charter late? Did you ever see Miss Brooks reduce? Things just don’t come like that. It’s fate! Did you ever see Roy Willard stopped ? Or does he spin just one yarn more? Have thirty minutes ever passed, Without Bill Massey on the floor? Can you imagine Doris without Crosby? Or Ernstine minus Ted ? Or Jean Stiles looking pleasant? Or Craig with everything said ? HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 19 Or Janet without her giggle? Or Vinny without his grin ? Art Howie without the “Bum Song?” Or Gerald Lunderman looking thin? No, you'll watch in vain for all these things, Just take a tip from me. Much as we'd like to see them, These are things you'll never see. —Donald MacLachlan. WHAT'S IN A NAME? “What's in a name?” has oft been asked, And may be asked some more. Let's scan our roll in H. H. S. And think the matter o'er. “No title of nobility,” the Constitution rules Shall granted be in U. S. A. (Land of the free, we sing.) Ye: how can such things come about, When here at school we have a King? Can you picture what might happen, How in study hall we'd shout If our Hunter should turn hunter, And would Chase our Fox about? If the Miller and the Carter and the Smith should go on a strike, And for Moore wages Dunn us in a manner strange and fickle. We would have no cause to worry. We'd just give them each a Nicol. 20 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS We know we have the best in Stiles, Although from Paris shops she's far. Our Charter states in language clear, Just what our rights and duties are. We Grant this Storie has no sense. We've Felt our Plantz should have more care. And well we know, whate'er betides, Our Brooks will babble here and there. WOULDN’T IT BE FUNNY IF:—. Florence were a Dime instead of a Nicol ? Isabel were a Less instead of a Moore? June were a Hound instead of a Hunter? Jean were a Fashions instead of a Stiles? Ida were a Constitution instead of a Charter? Marion were a Lakes instead of a Brooks? Madolyn were a Carpenter instead of a Smith? Virginia were a Squirrel instead of a Fox? Basil were a Pickerel instead of a Bass? Irena were an Old instead of a Young? Roger were an Egg instead of a Craig? Mae were a Wagoner instead of a Carter? Bessie were a Merchant instead of a Miller? Harold were a Run instead of a Chase? Vincent were a Velvet instead of a Felt? Delbert were a Purchase instead of a Sayles? Harold were a Duke instead of a King? Victor were a Corridor instead of a Hall? HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 21 SCHOOL HAPPENINGS Primary Room, May 1, 1932. Dear “High School Happenings”: It has been nearly a year since we wrote to you last. Many things have happened in our room since then. Would you like to hear of some of them? One day early last fall Mr. Simons surprised us by placing a nice bulletin board in the back of our room. Since then we have been hunting for pretty pictures to put on it. This year we have a reading table. Before school and at recess many of us have been found reading the new books we find there. Have you seen our Arithmetic Chart? It is on our bulletin board. We have a star placed on the chart for every perfect paper we hand in. At present Betty Schermerhorn is ahead, but we all hope to catch up to her soon. A short time ago the second grade made an Indian booklet. They collected all the Indian pictures they could find and made a nice booklet with them. We have had many good times this year. Hallow- e'en we had a party and invited our mothers. At Christmas time we all enjoyed a Christmas Tree in our room. At noon we had our dinner at school. Not long after this St. Valentine's Day came along. We each got a pretty valentine from our post-office. Our room prepared a number for the program m the Town Hall on Washington's Birthday. After Easter our time will be pretty well taken up 22 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS in getting ready for our June examinations and Com- mencement Exercises. Your Little Friends, “The Third Grade.” Intermediate Happenings In September, we started our flight around the year with thirty-two passengers in the cabin of our plane. The officers in charge were:____ First Pilot — Donald Demick. Second Pilot — Virginia Craig. Reporter — Robert Gallagher. Treasurer — Frances Smith. Tellers — Stuart Demick, Roy Lavarnway, Jr. Our first stop was on Hallowe’en, October 30th. The boys and girls of our room and the Primary room entertained our mothers at a Hallowe’en Party. We all enjoyed bobbing for apples and playing other Hal- lowe’en games. But we soon found ourselves well on the way to our next port of call, Thanksgiving. Here, on Novem- ber 24, the sixth grade history class presented a play, “The First Thanksgiving,” representing Colonial Days. On Wednesday, December 23, the Intermediate Room presented a play, entitled, “Santa and Son.” The principal characters were: Santa, Robert Gallagher; Santa’s Son, Donald Demick; Mrs. Santa, Kathryn Demick; Elves, Stuart Demick and Donald Baxter. We presented this as our part of the High School Christmas program. At noon, we had our annual Christmas dinner at school. The Christmas tree which followed brought a happy ending to the gladdest of days. After a vacation of two weeks we set out once HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 23 more on the last half of our flight. On February 14, we landed at the Valentine Air Mail Office where each received their Valentine Mes- sage. Our part in the Washington Celebration at the Town Hall, February 22, was a Minuet given by Fran- ces Smith, Virginia Craig, Marjorie Moore, Hilda Chase, Robert Gallagher, Donald Demick, Trevor Atkinson and Merle Laidlaw. At our weekly assembly on Friday, April 29, the Primary Room and Intermediate Room presented a music recital. Those who took part were: Arvilla Elethorp, Merle Laidlaw, Margery Chase, Ella Louise Welch, Virginia Craig, Eva Mae Pierce, Frances Smith, Kathryn Demick, Donald Demick, Donald Baxter, Tre- vor Atkinson, Frieda Emrich, Marjorie Moore and Pa- tricia Bickelhaupt. The Passengers who have been on duty every day since September are: Arvilla Elethorp, Kathryn Dem- ick, Jean Schermerhorn, Trevor Atkinson, Donald Bax- ter, Donald Demick and Robert Gallagher. Those who have averages above 90 for the first three quarters are: Fourth grade, Patricia Bickelhaupt, Hilda Chase, Ella Louise Welch, Betty Henderson. Fifth grade, Frances Smith, Donald Demick. Sixth grade, Robert Gallagher, Kathryn Demick, Merle Laidlaw, Donald Smith, Robert Emrich. We are now anxiously looking forward to the end of our trip around the year and all hope to make a “Happy Landing.” —Robert Gallagher. Grammar Department There have been 38 pupils enrolled in the Gram- 24 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS mar Department, 21 of whom are non-residents. The average attendance up to May 1, was 95 per cent. The Class officers for the Eighth Grade are: Pres- ident, Catharine Conger; Vice President, Catherine Scanlon; Secretary and Treasurer, Junior Rodger. Of- ficers for the Seventh Grade are: President, Lois Derby; Vice President, Jack McDougall; Secretary and Treas- urer, Mabel Foote. In the Eighth Grade Arithmetic Regents in Janu- ary all passed. The average standing was 89 5|7 per cent. Mary Chase was the winner in the Town Spelling Contest. Her standing on the first test was 98, on the second 96. Most of the Eighth Grade are carrying two High School subjects which they hope to pass in June. We have furnished two programs for the Friday morning Rhetorical Exercises. Mary Chase and Catharine Scanlon. Freshmen Notes So far as quantity goes, this year's Freshman Class again outnumbers the upper classes. As for quality, of course, we have our own ideas, but being very mod- est, we try to refrain from expressing them, and appear as green as is expected of us as Freshmen. In January we were pleased to add to our number Elda O'Hara, Henry Hanson, Bernard Maloy, Donn Bill- ings, Roger Cuthbert and Delbert Sayles. Early in the year we elected the following officers: President, Julia Merritt; Vice President, Catherine Mas- sey; Secretary, Rose Gascon; Treasurer, Franklin Mc- Dougall. In January, two of our officers became Soph- omores. Catherine Massey succeeded Julia Merritt as HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 25 president and LaVerna Carter was newly elected to fill the office of Secretary. One Friday morning last fall the Seniors initiated us Freshmen. Our motto is, “To Serve Rather Than To Be Serv- ed.Our class colors are, Scarlet and Brown. Our faculty advisor is Mr. Northrup. At Christmas time the upper classmen took advan- tage of our motto and asked the Freshmen girls to serve dinner and the boys to clean up afterward. One of our Freshmen, Lana Cuthbert, has left school. (We think she has something more serious in mind). —Margaret Bates. Sophomore Notes There are seventeen members in our class this year and we prefer “To be rather than to seem.,, It has been decided that all class colors will be scarlet and brown. We chose for our officers this year: Ernstine Demick — President. Winona Slate — Vice President. Vincent Felt — Treasurer. Hilda Dake — Secretary. In January, we lost four of our members, who were promoted to the Junior Class — Helen Nelson, James Fletcher, June Hunter and Harold King, but Julia Mer- ritt and Rose Gascon filled two of the vacancies. There are yet two to be filled. Here is a chance for some one who doesn't want to be a Freshman. —Hilda Dake. 26 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS Junior Notes Whoopee ! ! What have the Juniors been doing this year ? ? We held a class dance October 30, in the Knox Hall. The Hall was donned in gay apparel of orange and black in celebration of the spooks of Hallowe'en. From this and two food sales held in January we made $27.20. Our class colors are “Blue and Gray. and the motto is, “Out of school life into life's school.' T hirty-three is the year we grad. H ow the teachers will be glad ! E arnest and faithful is President Jean, J inny guards the coin like a queen. U seful is Vice President Parson. N other one is Helen Nelson. I maginative is Dot. Conger. O nly King is our best center. R ound the corner June doth dart. C rosby is renowned in art. L oving and giving is Bessie Miller. A Iso Fletcher is quite a feller. S weet Florence shines best at a feast. S torie is the last, but not the least. —Virginia Rodger. Senior Notes The Senior Class has had a very busy year. Last fall we had the “Jubilee singers at school. We made nearly five dollars. Aside from these school functions we held our an- HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 27 nual dance at the Knox Hall, March 30th. Glen Ireton’s “Midnite Orchestra” furnished the music. It was a big success as we cleared about forty dollars. On April 29th we presented our play, “The Jade Necklace” in the Knox Hall. It was well received and we made over forty dollars. We have been working on this magazine for some time. Every one has been busy trying to make it a success. Now we have Commencement to prepare for; our essays to complete and learn, to say nothing of the June Regents’ ahead. —Isabel Moore.

Out of 31 games played we succeeded in winning 24 and losing 7. Although we did not win the cup which is given to the winner of the St. Lawrence Valley League, we completed in third place. In the semi-finals we were defeated by the fast Farrand Coached men from Mor- ristown by the score of 22 to 31. In the finals Ham- mond took Madrid into camp by a score of 28 to 24. Out of 20 games played by the girls they succeeded in winning 3 of them. It is expected that next year they will bring the cup back to H. H. S. In a tournament played at Philadelphia the boys nosed out the fast Norwood five and won the champion- ship of the tournament. By winning that game thej brought home a large 29 - inch cup which is now on display. Thursday, March 31, we defeated Antwerp, Morristown won over West Carthage, Adams Center turned back Philadelphia, while Norwood ran rough- shod over Theresa. Friday, April 1, Hammond sent Adams Center down to defeat while Norwood nosed out Morristown by one point. In the final games on Satur- day night Morristown trampled on Adams Center, while Hammond sent Norwood to second place by a 20 to 15 score. This game proved to be a fast, close contest un- til the final quarter when Norwood cracked and Ham- mond went through for three baskets. The prizes went to the following players and teams: HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 31 1st Place — Hammond. 2nd Place — Norwood. 3rd Place — Morristown. 4th Place — Adams Center. Best Defensive Player — Bowhall of Norwood. Most Valuable Player — Colburn of Morristown. Most Popular Player — Burt of Adams Center. High Scorer — Gibson of Norwood. The All-Tournament Team chosen was as follows: Right Forward — Covell of Morristown Left Forward — Dunham of Hammond. Center — Colburn of Morristown. Right Guard — Gibson of Norwood. Left Guard — Howie of Hammond. The Friday night following the winning of the Tournament a sumptuous banquet was given the teams by the townspeople at which time they were congratu- lated on their success during the past season. —Donald Dunham. Clean - Up - Day 32 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS I ;! I Class of 1931 Only a year ago at this time, we, the class of ’31, were among the ranks of the students of Hammond High. We too occupied desks there and likewise, we too, tried to look intelligent when Mr. Northrup enter- ed the room. Now we are all divided, each pursuing the course Life intends for us. We are pretty well scattered. Temporarily, we are even divided by two nations, for I am at present living among our foreign neighbors north of us. It is interesting — the way conditions can change in so short a period. It doesn’t take long for a group to become divided; to have separate interests entirely apart from any group interests they may have had. Evelyn Campbell, whom we expected would go to college, is now training to be a nurse in a hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. She will have a hand in looking after the health of the present generation and those to come. Leah Bates is now putting in time until she will be old enough to follow the same profession. Marshall Tyler is still listed among the population of Hammond. He, at least, knows there is “no placo like home,” even if the rest of us do not. Howard Moore, having tried Cornell University, has also learned that lesson. Cy McDougall, I guess, has decided that farming is a pretty good occupation after all. Doris Foote is in Potsdam Normal and will prob- ably in a few years be back in Hammond, sharing the ALUMNI NOTES HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 33 knowledge she acquired in Hammond High and else- where, with the children of that time. She is the only one who is training to be a teacher. Most of the for mer classes of our Alma Mater have produced more teachers. I suppose our class sort of generally decid- ed that there is an over-production of teachers. Roscoe Pilger and I are both in business col- leges. We will without much doubt, punch typewrit- ers for a living during the remaining years of our ex- istence. Well, we could all do worse than we are. When I recall the compiling of our High School magazine last year, I cannot help but think that if the Editor of Hammond High Happenings censors this art- icle the way the Editor of that publication slashed things last year, there will be very little of it left. But as a final and truly affectionate note, I am con- fident that every one of my class mates will gladly join me in wishing the very best of luck to our immediate successors, the class of ’32. —Erva M. McLear. Class of 1927 Has the Class of '27 been forgotten? Each grad- uation time brings back to me the memory of my nine classmates and what they have achieved. Ina Bates, the Valedictorian of the Class, has suc- cessfully completed a course in a Nurses Training School in Syracuse and is now a trained nurse in that city. Ethyl Tann Carr, Leta Smith Odessa and Dorothy Dodds Robinson have each taken the matrimonial vows to love, honor and obey. Helen Bates has attained her ambition in the teach ing profession and is now employed in one of our sub- urban districts. 34 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS Barbara Welch and Nellie Yerdon, through the daily routine of home-making, are preparing to take up their abode in different quarters. Lloyd and Howard Felt have each completed the course in his chosen vocation. The former has attend- ed the Simmons Embalming School of Syracuse, and the latter the Empire State School of Printing of Ithaca. Glyndon Shoulette, after three successful years of teaching, decided to change his vocation and is at pres- ent holding a position in The Citizens National Bank of Hammond. —Glyndon Shoulette. Class of 1922 Ruth Grant Harriet Schermerhorn Mildred Turnbull Alta Young Ruth Allen Vernon Smith Crammond Dodds This is the crew of ’22. Seven was our number. As year roll by For none we sigh, Though miles part us asunder. Harriet was first to seek a mate. Eddy Watson then decided her fate. Ruth Grant was next, with all her noise. She heads the list with two fine boys. In ’27 Vernon brought Elizabeth into our ranks, And now they have an Alson, who is full of pranks. HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 35 Scotty Turnbull was fourth to fall in line. She keeps house and teaches, doing both fine. Next Crammond and Evelyn Mills joined a hand. Now they live in Mooers, where Cram works for Uncle Sam. Then Alta married Kenneth, a Gouverneur boy, Both are teaching in Youngstown, where life is a joy. And Ruth Allen was last to join that matrimonial crew'. She and Chas. Coveil married; live in New Jersey, and both are teaching too. —Ruth Allen Covell.

Echoes of 1902 May I tell just a little of the history of our school? You know that until the fall of 1901, Hammond had just a throe-room school building and employed just three teachers. It was through the untiring efforts of Irving G. Ad- ams, who came to us Sept. 1897, that we came under the New York State Regents Board and if I remember correctly the first Regents' Examination was held in January, 1898. But the work proved too strenuous and Mr. Adams' health broke down in the winter of 1900, so that he had to resign. His place was taken by Arch- ibald D. Wetherell who finished that school year and HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 37 taught the following year. Then in Sept. 1901 John B. Laidlaw came to us and to my mind he was one of the best teachers Hammond School has ever had. Mr. Laidlaw hadn’t been here very long before he decided it was impossible for one person to successfully teach the Grammar and Academic Departments — work that today five teachers are doing. So he called the School Board together and after a prolonged discussion he con- vinced them that Hammond really needed a Precep- tress and a Class Room. Miss H. Ella Hosford was our first Preceptress. For a class room, a temporary partition of heavy, building paper was put in the Intermediate Room, di- viding the room and also shutting off much of the light. Miss Hosford had a clear, high-pitched voice that could easily be heard all over the school building, so picture, if you can, the din when she was conducting a class on one side of the room while Miss Theresa Smithers was teaching Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Grades on the other side of the room. Upstairs the noise was even worse as carpenters were busy tearing off the old peaked roof of the Pri- mary Room and building a class room there. By Jan. 1902, all was completed and how we did boast that Hammond now had an up-to-date school and four teach- ers. June 24, 1902 was a red letter day for many of us and a proud day for the Hammond Union School, as it was then called, as on that day was graduated the first class since we had become a Regents’ school There were twelve members in the class and after thirty years have passed, we are very happy to say our number is still unbroken. Of the twelve, four—namely Merton Livingston, 38 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS Bess Johnston, Lucy Gokey and Edith Day—are still living in what they consider the “best little town in New York State.” Helen Ferguson hasn't wandered very far—she re- sides in Ogdensburg. Maude Wilson and Miollie Stiles were the insepar- able chums. Nora V. Babcock was unquestionably the “coquette of the Class.” Leland Krake, better known as Pat, was the com- edian—but, oh, how serious in his study hour! He be- came an Electrical Engineer. Grover R. (“Baby”) Cline never did seem to get along here but for years has been conductor on the street railway at Rome, N. Y. All of the class have married except Lela Mills and Vera Rodger, who are the successful teachers of the class. For years Lela has taught in Yonkers, N. Y., and Vera in Colorado Springs, Colo. We must have had a very serious view of life in 1902 from the weighty problems disucssed in our es- says. Our in otto was, “Look nobly into life's deep stream.” Our colors were Yale blue and white. Much water has gone under the bridge and over the dam since June, 1902, yet it seems but yesterday that we heard the old bell calling us to the little “White School House on the Hill,” now the Masonic Temple. —By a 1902 Graduate (Edith Day Welch.) We regret that due to lack of funds, it was nec- essary to omit a number of interesting notes written by members of the alumni. Wbert Those Fros G ness 40 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS I COMEDY CUES J Teacher—“Henry, use triangle in a sentence. Henry H.—“If fish don't bite on grasshoppers, try angle worms. Donald Dunham, while trav- eling through the Northwest, suffered a slight accident to his car. Unable to find his mon- key-wrench he went to a farm house which stood nearby and inquired of the Swede owner: “Have you a monkey-wrench here ? “No, replied the Swede, “My brother bane got a cattle ranch over there. My cousin's got a sheep ranch down there, but it's too darn cold for a mon- key ranch here. One night Bill Massey was headed for Oak Point. He came to the Bay Road corner and he saw an arrow sign which read thus, “This will take you to Oak Point. He sat on the sign for two hours and then he said, “I wonder when this thing is going to start. Miss McClelland—“What is it that a cat has that no other animal has. Harold King—“Kittens. Mr. Northrup—“Which travels faster, heat or cold? Parson—“Heat, because one can catch cold easy. Jean was taking a child to the minister (20 years hence) to be christened. “Let me see now, said the minister, dipping his pen into the ink to record the event, “Isn't it the 17th? Jean—“I should say not, it's only the ninth. Ted—“I got a real kick out of kissing Ernstine last nite. Roger—“Any more than us- ual? Ted—“Yes, the old man caught me. Prof.—“If a farmer sold 1000 bushels of wheat at $3 per bushel, what would he get? Madolyn—j-“An automobile. HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS 41 Bill Gleason—“And now what is this thing called love?” Virginia Fox—“It's a victrola record.” Bird Seed—“Say, Parson, did you hear the song about un- derwear ?” Parson—“No. What's the name of it ?” Bird Seed — “I Wouldn't Change You For the World.” “There is many a high school boy who passes for being hard boiled when he is onty half baked.”—Parson. Lucille—“I'd come over to-nite if I thought you really want- ed me.” Mansel—“Oh, I do want you to come. I've been so lonesome since my little puppy died.” Mae Carter—“There is still some dew on the flowers you brought me.” Jack—“Yes, but I'm going to pay it tomorrow.” Worth Catlin—“Do you think I can ever do anything with my voice?” Mr. Northrup—“It ought to come handy in case of a fire.” Traffic Cop—“Hey! You! Did- n't you hear me yelling for you to stop?” Donald D.—“Was that you? I thought it was somebody I had run over.” LaVerna—“Which is the most popular of Arthur's Knights?” Lucille—“Wednesday.” One morning during the As- sembly program, Esther Spoth announced the following Cur- rent Events: “A War Vessel Was Docked in Brockville By Alice Conger.” “The Lindbergh Baby Has Been Found By Catherine Con- ger,” and, “The President of France, Shot By Mary Chase.” Two casual golf acquaint- ances were walking toward the green when they sighted two women coming over a hill. “I say,” remarked one of the men, “here comes my wife and some old hag she's picked up somewhere.” “And here comes mine with another,” retorted the other icily. 42 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS Caller—“And what are the twins to be named, John- ny ?” Johnny—“Helen and Maria.” Caller—“Why, no, Johnny, it can't be that!” Johnny—“Well anyhow, that's what Pop said when the nurse brought 'em in.” Mr. Craig—“Who did you take out in the car last night, Rog- er ?” Roger—“Oh, just five or six boys.” Mr. Craig—“I didn't know boys used lipstick.” Vincent Felt, reciting the al- phabet to Miss Brooks for- got what letter came after H.
