, HANNIBAL HIGH SCHOOL . . , 9 English Ill Class .. . With many misgivings and quakings ' of heart, , We started in High School at the first start. In our Freshman year, we were so , sincere I That We gained a good entrance in our school career. As Sophomores next, now didn't we have fun, We thought at 'that time, we were going some. We chose our banner, violet. and white, Such a pretty one there never was quite. ' This we have started with ai111 so high, , It won't hit the fence but go to the sky. ' And now we will try hard and pro- ceedj To tell you about each one and his deed. Frances Kranze, we are proud to say, Is our President, happy and gay. She keeps the ball of mirth a-rollin', VVhich is really quite consolin'. Harris Lockwood, the professor's kin, Plays in the orchestra on his violin. VVhen we hear Skeesix humming, Then we know La Vern is coming. John Gray, whom all hope will be Q Famous as Gray who wrote Elegy . , a If from Howard VanWie you should need some help, You would lind him down in the base- ment testing milk. J Dorothy Upcraft is a great musician, Which is much better than writing fiction. . William Simmons would not make a y preacher, But we-think he would shine as a dancing teacher. . i Gladys Parsons is very amiable, But in some things she's quite change- able. i I' Paul Eno goes through High School at a fearful pace, ' With always a smile on his honest face.

Sylvia Bruder thinks it worth while To follow up the latest style, ' Indeed we think she would cut oil' her nose Rather than not wear the latest clothes. ' Look out! Coxy, ' I Those girl scouts are said to be foxy. Barbara Horton is very fair With her curly eyes and coal-black hair. When we see Elizabeth Simmons We all think she's very stunnin', Sometimes she says things cunnin', But always keeps her tongue a-run- nin'.

8 . . FOURSQUARE A short time before the cross coun- try run at Oswego, Hannibal was re- quested to participate. We lost, not because of being outrun but because of being outtrained. We hope in the spring to show them our heels. The baseball prospects are bright for the coming season, as we have several of our former stars, besides promising recruits to enter the field, and we feel that with the support of the students and the people of Hanni- bal we can put across many victories. In other words we call for real school spirit to encourage and pro- long athletics. I JACK and J AKEN. El Basket-Ball Line-Up Captain-Crafton Phelps. Manager-Glen Blodgett. Center--Winfield Kranze.

When we studious little beings came into Hannibal High School, we had a vague knowledge of the work expected of us. Now things have changed, each and every one knows that which he is expected to do and he does it with a brave, confident feeling. Through our teachers' kind expres- sions, their thoughtful ways, and in- terest, we are all on the way to prog- ress which will make us successful in our future work. lil English ll Class Two short years ago, we entered Hannibal High School. This was the beginning of our High School career. The most important event during the first year was the laying of the cor- ner stone of the new building. The following yell was given by our class: Rah! Rah! Rah! Twenty-seven is our number, Can't you hear us yell like thunder, 'Z7l '27l '27l Our second year began in the new building, much to our great joy. As we were now thoroughly initiated into high school life, we decided to give a Christmas party in the auditorium. A Fine time was said to have been en- joyed by all present. Although the number of members has decreased to twenty-one, we still intend to hold our ,heads high with many hopes for the future. -R. WASHBURN, F. ADSITT. El A school should blow its own big horn, ' This right must not be mooted, For if it does not blow its horn The same will not be tooted.

IO. FoURsQUARE You can hear music from Professor Scott, VVhether you want to hear it or not. Madge Pittroff is one of those chick- ens VVho is, always full of the very dick- ens. We know not his fame, We know not his game, Hut we do know his name, VVilfred Summerville. VVe have given you the history of the Class of '26, And we're really glad to' say, that we're the kind that sticks. Some time in the future, we know our names will be, Written with the famous in the book of history. -M.PLACE, N.ENo, E. s1MMoNs. El S English IV and Seniors History: What is' history? It is the stating of events for a period of time. Our history has been for four long, but happily filled years. ,ln the fall of 1921 we marched up to the study hall with all confidence of our, success but with quickly beat- ing hearts, fearful of the reception we Freshmen would receive. Our first year was hlled with trials and tribulationsg among these were algebra, Latin, and biology. Of these Latin was considered the most diffi- cult. ' As Sophomores, we had other per- plexities, geometry was our tryst, but at last we won the reward. We or- ganized our English Class, elected ot- that we Athletic ficers and it was suggested raise some money for the Fund. To do this we gave a play and were successful in clearing nearly forty dollars. lt was in this year that our schoolhouse was destroyed by fire, but, under these conditions we only worked the more 'zealously, deter- mined to make good. ' Ah, Seniors at last! with victory in our grasp. We have entered our new schoolhouse and with all the present advantages we will win our goal, Victory , ' As we enter room 24, Mrs. Bradt's smiling' face greets us with: Are you prepared? If not prepared, she tells us, Regents will catch us unready, then, we will be sorry for our neglect- fulness. The members of the English IV Class and the Seniors have many fail- ings, but they also have a great num- ber of strong points. MARION DAY lllimi!
