THE ODYSSEY OF1936 O'lf'81fUO'lf' HIS year, 1936, marlcs the tenth anniversary of the publishing of an Annual in l-lomer Academy. The Epic, first 65 15 published in 1926, made its final appearance in the year 1997. From that year until now, no class has dared ven- ture into the vast undertaking of editing a Year Boolc. The class of '36 decided in the beginning of the Fall semester to have a year-boolc. from then until now we have tried, clumsily but diligently, to preserve the activities of the current year. If we have failed in the attainment of the high standards which you had hoped for, we can truthfully say this: that it vvas not from laclc of effort but rather from inexperience. Lilce Ulysses we have traveled far and combated many difficult factors. Before vve leave the portals of this edifice we should lilce to leave a request,much in the same manner as our hero, Ulysses did to his son, Telemachus. We have started an enterprise. l-lave we la- bored for naught? Are our ambitions and desires to be forgotten? Juniors! Sophomoresl Freshmenl and classes to comel We beg of you, don't fail us in our precedent of publishing the 0dyssey . Be ambitious, courageous and persevering as was Ulysses. Thy enterprise will reward thee. 6 THE ODYSSEY OF1936 gjvcfllccl H011 James E.

'U EJIENILEIVIAN, scholar, discipiina- rian, orator, actor and a general good fellow, these are the things that run through our minds when PrincipaI WoIner's name is mentioned. A square shooter--aIways willing to give a fair deaI, even when he Iqnows you are wrong. A man whom we are proud to point out as our principal, Mr. Wolner stands aIone. Perhaps it will be easier For us to realize how natural it has been for Mr. Wolner to establish himself in I'Iomer if we reminisce through his previous career. As a resuIt oi a very active and coIoriuI I-Iigh School career at Albany, Mr. Wolner wa' ohfered two scholarships, to Columbia University and the other to Ohio WesIeyan. I'Ie declined both of these in favor of entering New YorI4 State Teachers CoIIege at Albany. While at AIbany he made a reputation for himseII. I-Ie was president both of his Freshman and Sophomore CIasses, Editor of the College Newspaper, captain of the debate team, which competed with both nationaI and internationaI teams, president of Signum I.audis-SchoIarship Society and a member oi lVIysIcanid, which is a senior honorary society For directing student affairs. Mr. Wolner came to I-Iomer as an English teacher and senior advisor in the iaII of 1930. I-Ie served in this capacity for three years. In 'I933 he succeeded Mr. Warren as principal of I'Iomer Academy. Since he has been in I-Iomer, Principal WoIner has continued to add prestige to his name. During the years 'I93'I and 1933 he was substitute instructor in EngIisI'i at New York State CoIIege for Teachers in that coIIege,s summer sessions. principal Wolner is the Chairman oi Supervising I3rincipaIs oi the state oi New YorIc. I-Iowever, one of the most distinguished positions and to Principal Wolner the most enjoyable of his honors is his being eIected the president oi the Homer Chamber of Commerce. It is with the sincerest appreciation that the CIass of 'I936 wishes to thanIc I7rincipaI WoIner For his Icindly cooperation and consideration in connection with the Odyssey. And it is with due regret that the members oi the CIass oi 1936 have to say good-bye to Mr. Wolner, indeed a Friend at all times. 5 I13Ir THE ODYSSEY OF193o Durkee, Beaudry, Briggs, Kahl Dunbar, Creal, Morris, Ogden, Creque Kjgflllllf Ojli Cg.BC!1ICClll.OIl President---JAMES QGDEN Clerk---LAWRENCE CREQUE MEMBERS HUGH ALLEN MRS.

It is smaller in number, than any class in several years. However, as this class has proven it is enthusiasm that counts and not quantity. The Class of 1936 was the First class to sponsor a dance in their Freshmen year. They also had a dance in their Sophomore year and, of course, the Annual Junior Prom, which we gave last year was one of the most elaborate of many years, it was also a Financial success. The Class of 1936 started out their high school activities by winning the Assembly banner in their Freshmen year with the presentation of The King's Fnglishn. Last year the Class of '36 also won the 55.00 cash award for the best Assembly production. They presented a Minstrel Show which was written by Lawrence Smith and Rexiord Morse. And last, but not least, this year's Senior Class pioneered the way to Three One-Act Plays for the Annual Senior Play pro- duction. Oi course, it may have no direct bearing on this year's Graduating Class more than any other class, but we can't help but feel a wee bit responsible. Since our entrance into l-ligh School many honors have come to the school through diiferent departments. The Orchestra, The News, The Commercial Club, and the Athletic department have added trophies to the case in the Li- brary. We may not, as l have said before, have had anything to do with these awards but it is with a great deal of pride that we point these Facts out as having occurred during our High School careers. And, ah yes, don't forget the rejuvenation of a Year Book. VALEDICTORIAN, Roberta Van Sickle SALUTATORIAN, Betty Jones HONOR STUDENTS Dorothy Andrews Virginia Aylesworth Cleon Barber 1231 1911?

Yes, classes before us the same road have run, With life's lessons, experiences, have struggled and won Along with our study there's been loads of fun. All have found leisure for good jolce or pun. Now finished our course, we come to these days With lceen satisfaction and hearts full of praise For those who have labored each day with us here, Leading us on with tact and-good cheer. To the teachers who malce a school whatever it be, Grateful thanlcs we extend--well deserved all agree. Community spirit, too, has played its part. lts good wishes and interest we've felt from the start. Close friendships have grown as together we've toiled. No harsh note of discord our school spirit has soiled. Along with the joys and thrills as we prepare to depart, A feeling of sadness steals into each heart. l-lomer Academyl We bid thee farewell. Fond memories of all you've been in our hearts will e'er dwell New taslcs are calling. The future looks bright. Then, On, fellow classmatesl l.et's do with our might! Let's remember the lessons that we've learned here, Step out on life's highway with never a fearl John Fay 36 'I34l THE ODYSSEY OF 1936 ass forty 7 T this time we, the 1936 Graduating Class of Homer Academy, ask you to journey back with us twelve years to the year of1924. It is a bright September morning and the First day of a new school semester. We see in that beginning group of 53 only 16 familiar laces. There, coming up the walk, are seven frightened Cherubs, among whom are Edith Perry, Helen Brown, Laurence Smith, Robert Huttleston, Jeanette Blanden and Virginia Aylesworth. Soon following these is another group more daring than the First. ln this group we see Rexlord Morse, Rena Williams, Dorothy Maynard, and Francis Huntington. Edith Randall can be seen running up the walk to tell the teacher on James Rice, who even at that time was teasing the girls. Here come two more familiar faces. Now we can see that it is Dorothy Andrews and Douglas Morris. Douglas is carrying Dorothy's books, but it must be understood that at that time Douglas was not the president of the Bachelor's Club. The last bell has rung now and all the pupils are quietly seated. Oh! but wait, here come two more children, a blond and a red head. Oh, yes, even at that time Cleon Barber and Laura Reagan were never latel At the end of our First year's journey Edith Randall, Edith Perry, and Cleon Barber left us for a few years. ln the second grade, Martin Kahl came from Hamilton to join our group. Since Martin came there has never been a dull moment, for he has kept us in laughter with his inexhaustible supply of jokes. Now he is even rated as an AMATEUR. ln 1928, during our fourth year in school, Edith Perry returned to our class from Killawog. Although she may look the picture of an angel, Miss Fox Finds her always talking when boys are around. At that time June Sewell also joined us from a district school in Cold Brook. In 1930 at the beginning of the sixth grade, Edith Randall returned from Moravia to lighten our class with her sunny disposition. At the same time Thomas Lonergan joined us from a district school in Little York. Although you may think Tommy's face is sunburned, it is due to the fact that he blushes easily. ln 1931, Beryl Nodine came from Cortland Normal School and joined us in the eighth grade. ln the same year, the beauty winner, Herbert Sweeney, came to our class from the West Homer School. ln 1932 at the beginning of our High School journey, Cleon Barber, Martha Roberts, Betty Jones, Francis Cottrell and Lewis Steger joined our class. Cleon, Betty and Francis came from Scott, while Martha came from Sherman, and Lewis from Preble. ln 1933 Gerald Oliver came as a Sophomore to our school from Cortland Central High School. At the same time our class sutfered a loss through the departure of Rena Williams for a period of one year. ln 1935 Thorold Lanning and Robert Preston joined our group from Cortland Central High School. At the same time Rena Williams returned from Philadelphia and John Fay, our only intellectual boy, came to our school from Westport, Connecticut. In our last year of High School in 1936 our present class was made complete by the addition of tvvo more pupils. Since Roberta Van Sickle joined our class from the 1937 class, and Ray Brown, the tcacher's pet, came from Cincinnatus, our present class roll was completed. Although this is the record of our class history, it may be forgotten, but who knows, perhaps some of us will make history that will never be forgotten.

Ii it's all right with you l would like to have you Fly your plane and have me as your sole passenger. We'll malce it a Tour year trip. l had nothing to do at the time so said olcay that l would go as long as the responsibility Tell on him. ln about a month we had everything prepared and even went to his office to prepare a schedule For the trip. lt was April 18, 1956, when we leit Roosevelt Field in New Yorlc to begin ourjourney around the world. Three days later we were wallcing down the main street ol Dublin, ireland, when who should we run into but that well lcnown lrish Setter, Herbert Sweeney. He said he was run- ning a swanlcy eating house where they served anything from eggs omelets to hamburg sand- wiches. Herb never did want to be a farmer and l guess this is the best he could Find. Our next stop was London, England. Here we met Edith Randall, and what do you thinlc? She had become a lady, yes sir, she met a swell Hinglishman and married himjust because the height of her ambition was to become a lady. We found from our tour of Scotland that Francis Cottrell had become thrifty and taken up banlcing as a profession. We left Scotland for Paris, France, and there we met Beryl Nodine as a model for a Ritzy Paris Stylist. From Paris we went to Berlin, Germany. There we met Dorothy Andrews, showing the German people how Beethoven would have Finished the unfinished symphony. Our next stop was Austria. There we met Rexlord Morse leading a revolution, and he had the country so upset that we decided -to leave immediately. We arrived in Florence, ltaly, the next day and found that Helen Brown was running an art gallery but l noticed that most of her portraits were of men. We left Italy and arrived in Turlcey a few months later and, as l gazed at one oi the mansions there it said Barber, mayor of the town . We stepped inside and found that he had Filty-nine servants and a harum. He was asleep when we were visiting so we could not see him. We found Betty Jones in Russia playing the Fiddle For the Czar. Second Fiddle at that For she married the fellow who played First Fiddle. As we were Flying low over the high Mountains of Siberia we spied a crowd of sober loolcing people interested in one person who was explaining something to them. We circled the group then landed and Found Tim Kahl was still up to his old triclcs of trying to explain some old iolces that the points had been worn oFl oi long ago. When we were at his house he told fi' -1371 TI-IE ODYSSEY OF 1936 PROPI-IECY OF CLASS OF '36 Ccontinuedb us that he had discarded the milk selling idea, bought himself a bottle capper and started bottling and selling bottled spring water. We didn't stay long in Siberia because politics weren't very stable there and because we were sick of drinking spring water. India was our next destination and if we didn't find Edith Perry, the girl with the bad influ- ential personality. She was sweeping the country by missing work and had the country pretty well cleaned up. After visiting India for a few weeks we decided to go to Australia. As we were Flying over one of the farmhouses we saw in big letters Lonergan's Milk Shopu, and after landing to find what kind of a place it was we found that Thomas Lonergan was proprietor. He had moved his farm to Australia to a better locality Cso he claimedl. We met Douglas Morris on our visit to the Philippine Islands, and did he have a SWEET job. He had become refined and was running a sugar plantation. We continued our journey on to Japan where we found that Ray Brown had become Park Commissioner of one of the most popular parks there. He said that his job was very interesting especially at night, and then it was exciting. He had a stick in his hand with a nail in the end of it. I asked him why he had it and he said that his business was picking up. On our way to Hawaii we met up with a terrific storm and were forced to land on the ocean. We sent out our S. O. S. and it was picked up by Gerald Oliver of the U. S. S. Caesar. It must have been Cuerald Oliver because he was the only radio man in my class at school. After being marooned on our man-made island for eight hours, our rescue ship came into sight. The captain, Robert Huttleston, was the first to greet us and as we stood on deck discuss- ing old times, something whizzed by with terrific speed. Bob said that it was nothing but Dorothy Maynard roller skating on deck for her health. At night she was on the feature floor show singing Blues Songs. As I was walking into the dining room, I spied the stuffed head of a cow on the wall. A beautiful specimen it was, too. On a plate under it was written in fairly large letters The first and only successfully mounted head of a cow in the world by Robert Preston . While supper was being served I overheard a conversation between the internationally known Journalist Lawrence Smith and that well appreciated war nurse Jeanette Blanden. from their conversation I found that Laura Reagan had been awakened one morning too early and from this had lost weight. Because of this she was suing the fellow who gave her the alarm clock for Christmas. I began exploring the room with my eyes and found that in another room two boys were displaying very great skill in the act of drink mixing. I recognized them as being James Chflonkb Rice and Louis CBudD Steger. As we approached Hawaii an aristocratic young lady, who had evidently married a jewelry man for she was decorated like a community Christmas Tree, walked up to me and introduced herself as being Lola King. Just before I left the boat I saw Frances Huntington holding hands with a fellow, well maybe not so bad as that maybefshe was a nurse and was testing the man's pulse. COne never knows does one?D When I came up on the beech at Waikiki, I saw two girls indulging in a game of tennis. When I had pushed my way through the crowd I found out that it was Rena Williams and Vir- ginia Aylesworth. The funniest part about the crowd was that it consisted entirely of men. CI guess just because the girls played such a strenuous game.D In about six weeks our plane had been repaired and we returned to the United States ol America.

Q O Q PROPHECY OF CLASS OF 1936 Ccontinued from page 385 tally saw by the writing on a large electric sign that John Fay had become the second Clark Gable and was starring in the production WHEN l WAS LEFT BEHIND. We didn't stop in San Francisco but kept our course towards New York. Ol all the spots to pick for your engine to give out the Rocky Mountains is the worst, but that's where ours did what it did and the result was that we lost our Flying speed and pancaked a landing in amongst the oak trees. There happened to be a schoolhouse right where we landed, but it appeared to be unin- habited until an old schoolmarm stuck her head out the door and yelled, Hayl you tellers! quit your making so much noise. My children can't study. Roberta Van Sickle shut the door with a bang. We decided that this was no country for us so we bought a horse and hoofed it to the nearest Flying Field. We boarded an air liner bound lor New York and to my surprise Martha Roberts was the stewardess. Later l became hungry and went into the diningroom where l met June Sewell, who was representing the Wonder Worker Wax for Woodwork Company, and demonstrating it to a bunch of people who didn't know the difference between wax and grape juice.

Q! g6gIflf'lC'lf'fQ?ZCCIC!Cl'H1j J f QLKOMER ACADEMY, one ol the oldest academies, not only ot the county but of the state, was founded in 1819. The petition of a group ol prominent l-lomer men was granted by the Board oi Regents ol New York State and the charter was dated February 9,1819 This charter now reposes in a sale deposit box in l-lomer National Banl4. Among the many famous men who graduated from the Academy during the 183O's, 184O's, and 1850's were: Dr. Stephen Smith, who sponsored the law providing For vaccination, and who helped found the New York l-lealth Department, and who, at 97 attended the centennial celebration of l-lomer Academy, Alinon Bacon, Founder of Bacon University in Qlclahoma, the only college at the time lor Indians, Drs. l-lenry and Samuel Jessup, founders ol the American College at Beirut, Syria, and both well-known missionaries, William Stoddard, secretary to Lincoln, and First person other than Lincoln to read the Emancipation proclamation, Reverend Edward l'litchcocl4, pastor of the American Chapel in Paris during the reign of Napoleon lll, Reverend Theodore Munger, one of the best-l4nown preachers of his day, Eranlc Carpenter, the famous painter ot the LINCOLN CABINET, and perhaps the most famous of all, Dr. James Salisbury, B. S. N., A. M., M. D., a Famous doctor and geologist, originator oi the germ theory in 1849, his worlc antedating that ol Pasteur, l'luxely, and Tyndall. May these statistics linger and instill in the minds ol the classes to come, an inspiration, not only to lceep up with the high standards previously set, but also to surpass accomplishments already reached. It is to the classes to come that the 1936 Graduating Class is entrusting the prestige ol l-lomer Academy. 4451 THE ODYSSEY OF 1936 Adams, Paul Allen, Dorothea Armitage, Florence Baldwin, Louise Barber, Frances Bee, Alice Bee, Robert Bement, Oakley Briggs, Barbara Brown, James K-,J he Qiczss 0 lQ37 ROLL CALL Bush, Emerson Chrisman, Charlotte Crosley, Rena Dannon, Robert Davis, Louise Gates, Dorothy Fay, Neil Griswold, Bernice Howe, Bertha Howe, Rosalie Humphrey, Shirley Jones, Darrell Jones, Esther Jones, Janet Kiehl, Helen Lautenberger, Myrtle Lonergan, Edward Nelson, Mary Pierce, Alice Price, Betty Rice, John Roe, Charlotte Ryan, Thomas St. John, Marjorie Squire, Genevieve Stevens, Philip Sweeney, Helen Sweeney, Robert Walker, Margaret Walters, Winthrop Welch, Virginia Wilkins, Richard Yaman, James 'l46l THE ODYSSEY OF 1936 f1fL1fLiO'V' QZGSS CJHE Junior Class oi Homer Academy entered the l-ligh school in the year 1934.

The Post Graduates had stolen this glamour from the class of 1936. This year, for the first time in the history of l-lomer Academy, the P. Gfs were strong enough Cat least in numbersf to become an organized unit ofthe high school. Organiza- tion night they were ten strong in attendance and with very little difficulty they elected the fol- lowing officers: President--Woodrow Glover '35, Secretary and Treasurer--Robert McKnight. Mr. Kraemer is their advisor. Aside from stealing glory from the Senior Class and making the entire school envious of their hours Cthey alone knew what they werej the P. Gfs have done a lot for the school, both collectively and individually. Together they sponsored the first independent school dance of the year and, as usual, outdid themselves in originality. The gym was decorated in red, white and blue with a continual string of song titles and snappy bars of music around the walls. They also had an Auburn orchestra, Stan l-larris'-no Cortland orchestra for them. The Post Graduates were also responsible for the enjoyable dances following the basketball games last winter. However, to them the most outstanding event of the year was their Christ- mas party. Did we hear about that Cafter it was all over?-ice cream and cake and peanutsl The Art Club, of which Robert McKnight '35, is the President, originator, and most active member, is in reality a club formed by the P. Gfs who were increasing their education in Art. Due to the faithful work of the P. Gfs this club has become one of the biggest boons to l'lomer Academy. Athletics were not omitted from the P. G.'s curriculum. Charles Baldwin '35 took care of this branch of the class. Charles was Captain of this year's soccer team and high scorer on the basketball team. l-le was ineligible for League competition in baseball this year but more than made up for it in handling the weight events for the track team. This summary of the P. Gfs activities would not be complete without a mention of their unique mascot, Otto. Otto WAS a mouse. l-le was captured, boxed and fed by the P. Gfs. Wherever Jackie Sutton '35 went Otto was sure to goA-because Jack took him with him. Need- less to say, Otto was none too popular with the weaker sex. But alas and alack for poor Otto, someone closed the cover on his codfish box cage and when the morrow was brought around he was discovered--dead. Smothered to death. But the P. Gfs, under FULL mourning, gave him a fit and mousy burial. l think they cremated Otto.

This has been the motto of the Homer Academy News during the past year, ln all, there have been five big scoops to its credit--the announcement of the cast for the Senior plays, stories on the winners of the Russell Morse and Mary Flagg Daniels Awards, the announcement of the honor students, and the reporting of the candidates for Prom Oueen. Moreover, the News has influenced student thought considerably during the past few months. lts suggestion for open forum discussions was carried out and several policies which the paper had advocated discussed at that time. The News organized in September, 1930, under the supervision of Mr. Wolner, English instructor at that time, was such a lively offspring, that even in its infant days it won commendation from the Columbia Press Association. The paper again received recognition in 1934, when it won first prize for mimeographed papers at the Syracuse Press Conference. Last year, Philip Jennison, '35, Sports Editor, won a scholarship to Syracuse University by placing first in a newswriting contest, which was a part of the First Annual School Press Conference. Anna Leyerer, '35, Philip, and Miss Fox were delegates to this convocation. The paper's reputation was sustained last fall when it was held before the delegates to the Second Annuai Press Meeting as a leading mimeographed publication and awarded first prize for its editorials. Rexford Morse, Richard Wilkins, and Miss Fox representatives to the conference. , ln order to maintain a general excellence throughout the paper, advances in the mimeographing have been made. Shadow letters for headlines on the front page, colored designs, banner heads on the sports page have all been adopted through the policies of the editors. Each new staff for the News is elected annually in May but does not assume its duties until the following September. ln September also, new members are enrolled who are called cubs . Cubs this year included Johanne Creal, '39, Ruth Jennison, '39, Alice Bee, '37, Winton Perkins, '38, Walter Brown, '38, Robert Springer, '38, Harold Reagan, '38. The present year was the first time in the history of the paper that the News has had an independent typing staff doing both galley strips and stencils. At present, Betty Jones, '26, Evelyn Baldwin, '95, and Charles Baldwin, '35, are doing galleys, while Margaret Walker, '37, Mary Nelson, '37, Thomas Ryan, '37, and Marjorie St. John, '37, are doing stencils.

Last Eebruary a Jazz Orchestra was formed to play at a lew small school dances and mixers. The Cantata, Spring Comethn, was presented at the annual spring Festival last year.

Besides presenting marionette shows, as the name suggests, the club has attempted to convey the modern arts to the students and the townspeople. The First marionette show ol the Puppeteers was 'll3inocchio , given at the Academy gymna- sium on May T5. Constant worl4 lor over lour months and expenses amounting to over 595.00 went into the production. Previews ol Pinocchio were given in March lor the P. T. A., and the high school students, and a 'ltrial perlormancel' was given at the Homer Grange Hall on Apdl3O On the afternoon ol May 15, when the Puppeteers gave their children matinee, the Kings- land Marionettes were playing in Cortland, so we invited Mr. Cedric Head, ownerolthis troupe, to see and criticise our show. He came, and, besides criticising the show, he brought some ol his marionettes and gave a short varied program. He told the Ruppeteers that their show was excellent in every respect considering it was a First attempt. Alter the marionettes were put away, the Paint and Palette Ruppeteers sponsored the First art exhibit ol the worlcs ol Homerites that has ever been presented. The exhibit was in memory ol Franlc Carpenter, one ol America's foremost painters ol the 19th Century, and an original Homerite. The Puppeteers have also done numerous other minor activities throughout the year, includ- ing Saturday evening socials. The Puppeteers have had as their advisor Miss Virginia Taylor ol the Art Department. 4641 THE ODYSSEY OF 1936 F Cu QVLZVG S- f ous OFFICERS President . MARTHA JOHNSTON Secretary . .

The mem- bers Cno freshmen are allowed to join the clubD elected Rexford Morse as Rresident, l-lelen Kiehl as Vice Rresident, Betty Rrice as Secretary, and Douglas Morris as Treasurer. The club gets together for social gatherings at which they dance, play cards and have special programs as well as for business meetings. The club put on an assembly in which an agent from the Central Office Equipment Co. talked about and demonstrated new and old office equipment. ln May, during an assembly their Loving Cup was presented to the School, On April 24, 1936, the Club sponsored a dance. Hstann l-larris and his orchestra fur- nished the music. The club also had mixers during the Spring semester. Because Marjorie St. John, Betty Rrice, and Thomas Ryan were able to type so fast that the lceys lcept right on tapping out words after they had lifted their hands, the club sent them to the District Contest at Liverpool. Thomas Ryan was the winner of the typing speed test in the dis- trict. The three typists as a team, also won first and received a Loving Cup for their merits. Thomas also entered the State Contest, held in Syracuse in May. Lilcewise, the booltlceeping class had some who were a little nearer when business brains were passed out. Consequently, Virginia Welch, Rena Crosley, and John Rice represented the booklceeping class at the contest, too. They came home winners, capturing the second place of their contest. As a school, Homer Academy ranlced third in the district. 1671 THE ODYSSEY OF 1936 Laurence Smith, Rexlord Morse, Martin Kahl, Thorold Lanning, Thomas Lonergan, Cleon Barber Betty Price, Betty Jones, Dorothy Maynard, Miss Fox, Roberta Van Sickle, Helen Brown , a ' yssey iujg rf-S' ffl-lE Senior Class ol l-lomer Academy is holding up its reputation this year by publishing a year bool4.

The new candidates were so strong, however, that nearly two complete teams saw action in every game. This year's soccer team Finished its regular season in lirst place in the Cortland-lomplcins County League by winning every game but one, that being dropped to Marathon by the close score ol two to one. ln the playotls, however, Groton, an old rival, revenged hersell lor a previous deleat at the hands ol l'lomer, l-lomer Finished the playotl in third place, but we do not gain a true conception ol her ability by this rating. She lost but two games during the whole season, defeated every team in the League, won more games than any other team in the League, and due to a single costly deleat was lorced to talce third place. We hope that next year, under the competent leadership ol Ed Lonergan, captain-elect, a schedule can be arranged so that each team will be able to play the other team twice instead ol having the playotls to decide who shall be League Champion. The players who ended their Scholastic Career as soccer players this year are Captain Charles Baldwin, the post Graduate on this year's squad, Rexiord Morse, l-lerbert Sweeney, Thomas Lonergan, Robert l-luttleston, lhorold Lanning, Cleon Barber, and Gerald Oliver, the manager.

No, he doesn't answer them all, but he seems to satisfy the greater part of the fellows, desires. You say he must be a busy man? Well, you are right, for besides his regular class worlc and var- sity athletics, Mr. Butts has indulged in a vigorous curriculum of inter-class athletics. This year besides the regular seasonal interclass leagues that have already received note Mr. Butts started several other activities. If you should have come into the gymnasium early this spring you would have seen no less than four events in progress simultaneously. Paddle tennis, under the balcony, volley ball and hand ball on the gym Floor and ping-pong on the stage. Tim Kahl, '36, last year's paddle-tennis champion, held his title for another year, as he de- feated Charles Baldwin, '35, runner-up, 6-2. Tim was also runner-up in the ping-pong tourna- ment. Winton Perlcins, '38, defeated him in the finals Q-'I to become champion. Easter vacation and the arrival of baseball weather put a finis on the rest of the tournaments. However, the weather didn't bother the girls as they started their interclass activities as they tools up where the boys left off with volley ball, ping-pong, and paddle-tennis. Next year the Athletic Department is hoping for Tennis courts to enlarge their curriculum. 1801 I I I . , I I I I I I I I I 'Ii I IIIII I -PII? I 2' I.
