THE HISTORY OF THE CALENDAR WiTh The publicaTion of The I932 CALENDAR, The TorTieTh anniversary oT The esTablishmenT of ThaT book will be celebraTed. The CALENDAR has had an inTeresTing exisTence: Tor TorTy years sTudenTs have ioyfully prepared iT ThaT They mighT, in TuTure years, look back upon The record oT Their school days. This brief hisTory oT The CALENDAR is presenTed here Tor Those who wish To learn The inTeresTing TacTs con- necTed wiTh our annual school publicaTion. In l892, The IaTe George S. Buck, To whom This number of The CALENDAR is dedicaTed, conceived The idea oT a school magazine while a sTudenT aT Old CenTral. Under his supervision, The TirsT CALENDAR came ouT, and Mr. Buck became iTs ediTor. AT ThaT Time The CALENDAR was in The Torm oT a newspaper, and was sold every Three weeks Tor The amazingly small cosT of Three cenTs per copy. The odd inTerval beTween issues was chosen because iT was feared ThaT The burden of TrequenT publi- caTion mighT kill The paper. IT was very diFTiculT, aT TirsT, To persuade adverTisers To buy space. Mr. Charles E. Walbridge, now deceased, who was Then The head of Walbridge and Company, be- came inTeresTed in The CALENDAR. He Took a good-sized ad Tor The proposed issues Tor The year, paying in advance. Thus, Through Mr. Walbridge's kindness, The CAL- ENDAR secured The capiTal on which iT began. The CALENDAR developed along wiTh The school, and during iTs liTe, many changes have been insTiTuTed. There was a gradual decrease in The number oT issues puT ouT each year unTil iT was Tinally published quarTerly-aT EasTer, ChrisTmas, Arbor Day, and Commencement ln I9I6 a souvenir issue came ouT, conTaining picTures of The enTire TaculTy, and of The new school. ThaT year, also, marked The change in The num- ber oT issues. From I9l6 To I923 The sTa'FF published Three issues yearly. The esTab- lishmenT of a school newspaper-The HUTCH-IN-SUN-in I9I7 reduced The scope oT The CALENDAR: Trom ThaT Time iT was sTricTly a liTerary magazine, raTher Than a combined newspaper and magazine as beTore. Mr. Charles WhiTney became TaculTy adviser of The CALENDAR in l92I, succeed- ing Mr. M, SmiTh Thomas who had become principal of HuTchinson-CenTral. IT is inTeresTing To noTe ThaT, To averT Tinancial disTress, one year, while Mr. WhiTney was adviser, The boys of The sTaTT saved The half Tones , removed The copper, and sold iT Tor ThirTy dollars. ' Two CALENDARS yearly were published Trom I924 To l926. They were boTh com- mencemenT numbers Tor by ThaT Time HuTchinson graduaTed a January class. In l927 The CALENDAR became an annual. ThaT was The TirsT year ThaT The yearbook had a leaTher cover. Previously, The covers had been of heavy paper, and had been de- signed under The direcTion of The ArT deparTmenT. When leaTher covers came inTo use, ouTside Tirms received The work. T PosiTions on The CALENDAR sTaTT have always been appoinTive. During some years, all The maTerial prinTed in The CALENDAR was conTribuTed by sTudenTs. FrequenTly, in earlier days, The CALENDAR sponsored poeTry conTesTs and various oTher conTesTs, The winners having Their work prinTed in The magazine. Boys have, Tor The mosT parT, ediTed This publicaTion. Few girls have ever had The honor oT becoming The ediTor. The CALENDAR is proud To claim as 'Former members oT iTs sTaFT, many Buffalonians who have become prominenT in various Tields. THE CALENDAR l932
