'We have with us a definite Present-- our Graduation, the culmination of our achievements. And we have a more or less definite Future, as futures go, made up oi' our ambitions and plans. Yesterday has given us a wealth of companionships, helpful teaching, knowl- edge gained, and above all, experience in living. Tomorrow opens to us the gates of hope, the joy of dreams, the chance of a better existence, and the anticipation of unfulfilled ambitions. The Present is the combination of Past and Future. Yesterday and Tomorrow exist in Today. Now is the only time when we can use the experience which we gained yesterday, and the many days before. It is the only time when we can enjoy memories of past good times, and apply the instruction gained dur- ing our years of study. Now is forever the only chalice We have to make our plans for the future, to dream of those many ambitions, which we hope to accomplish. We cannot do again, in a better way. what we failed to do well yester- dayg neither can we do now what ive may be able to do later. But the present is the only time to use the treasures of the past and the future, so if we would find the zenith of opportunity, let us look for it today.

Our President! The title suggests an honor well deserved. The Senior Class con- sidered long' and as profoundly as it could, before its choice was made. We unani- mously agree that this choice was entirely right. 'tBill is a dyed-in-the-wool Ithaca product. Born and bred here, he is the exponent of its best traditions. I-Ic's an all- round fellow with brains enough to have won the necessary credits in the required time and still enough left over to help Mr. Cornell run the Co-op. Aside from violating the quiet rules, and other minor offences in the library, Sox has not given much trouble to his teachers. Beside his class-Work, President Half-Hose has held down the low- basses in the Glee Club, filled an important role in the Dramatic Club, and held the coveted position of Clerk of Congress. In addition to these high-grade mental per- formances, he was a member of the track and cross country squads. His classmates expect him to succeed in whatever profession he chooses, and will follow with interest the achievements of their president and leader.

Four years ago, this fair young' maiden came into our midst and has now attained the rights of a senior. Peg, having completed her course of study, has decided to leave hen host of friends, to train in the Packer Hospital, Sayre, Pennsyl- vania. In Judy we find a rare friend, one who is always willing to lend a helping' hand and to cheer us with a bright smile. The best wishes of the Senior Class go with this shining Star in everything' that she undertakes. ALBERT GERALD ALLEN Jerry R. F. ll. ii.

Here is the illustri- ous youth we have observed for the last four years. Jerry is a bright little Glee Club Songster who has made many friends in and about this insti- tution. Some of his associates are climbing with him, up the rocky hillside to higher summits next year and these, with the many who remain be- hind, join heartily in wishing' him success in his conquest. ANNA RACHEL ASHDOWN Daught', Rach Anne 116 Farm Street Vice-President of Senior Class 4: Science Club 2, 3, 4: Ithetaeria 2, 3, 4, Vice'-President 4, President 4: Le Cer-cle Francais 4: Le-Lzislative Assembly 3, 4, Vice-President 4: On Shure and Sea 2: O Lovely Night 2, 3: The Miller-'s Wooingr CS: Hero and Leander 3: Annual Reporter 1: Student Council 43 Field Hockey 4: Ssergnoc-itna lilue 3, 4. Here we are again. You'd better take a good look at our vice-president, for this is the last time Rach's picture will appear in this book. She's our good little girl, for no matter what hap- pens she maintains a cucumber-like calmness, which is astonishing at times. Yes, Rach is ever-ybody's friend and I wouldn't like the job of counting her friends of the future.

Girls! behold our Ann, a senior and about to leave us. Four short years have elapsed since she came, but she has accomplished great things during this time and, above all, has won her way into the hearts of her classmates, who will miss her next year. The world is wide and we know that there are many roads for Ann to choose. The wishes of her friends go with her, whatever work she may choose to do on the hill.

Deign to gaze on this bright and enthusiastic youth. Johnnie's delight is to ride around the streets, to see how many stray cats he can pick up. After graduation, he intends to study dentistry, so we can expect that soon the t'Yanks will be coming. Duke will no doubt be an active member of the Tooth-lfVrangler's Union. However, he is a good fellow, so when you grow old, take your troubles to Johnny WARREN STANLEY BARLOW Bill Joe Blutz Heintz 1 18 Hudson Street Parliament 1, 2: Congress 2, 3: General Council 2, 3, 4: Tnttler Board 2, 3, 4, Assistant Business Manager 3, Busi- ness Manarler 4: Glee Club 3, 4: Band 2, 3, 4: Wreck of the Hesperus 2: On Shore and Sea 2: Hero and Leander 3: An- nual Board. Associate Editor 2, Business Manager 4: Senior Stunt 4: Hockey 3, 4. Back in 1923, when Seniors were Seniors and Freshmen were jokes, Bill slid into this famed Alma Mater and is still sliding. As the greatest financial wizard the local school has ever known, he started his greatC?J record as Busi- ness Manager of the Tattler when it was in the hole, and it is still there. However, Joe rolled over a couple of new leaves, and steered the Annual to a presumably financial success fApple Sauceb. When Blutz was tired of col- lecting jack, he blew it into a new weepin' Barlowphone, or, as Whiteman says, the saxa- phone. Just the samy, Heintz, all great musi- cians are always a brilliant and successful bunch of boys, so why worry about you, old chappy?

Vice-President 4. Don't look so surprised! Yes, she's really a senior! Willie is our honor student, but the way she acquires her knowledge is beyond our comprehension. During Willie's career in High School, she has become a most accomplished act- ress and we all look forward to seeing her dance as the rival of Pavlowa, some day in the future. As an annual collector, she came out ahead of 212! Stupendous! Well, here's luck to you in the big open spaces, VVillie! LEIGH J. BATTERSON ilgat!! HJOQS! SKI-1ehig,h97 HFat!!

Bat is not an undertaker as it might seem at the first glance, nor is he a member of some gang of the underworld, but just a plain, inno- cent boy, whose profession is hill-climbing. Le- high has been with us for several years and has made many friends. Leigh tells us that he is go- ing to enter Cornell this fall. We are glad to hear this and wish him the best of luck. DALE ROBINSON BEATTIE Dale Lizzie Forest Home Drive Parliament 1, 2, Vice-President 2: Dramatic Club 2, 3, 4, 5: The Exchange 3: Student Council 4, 5: Glee Club 4, 5: Hockey 4, 5, Manager 4, 5: Tattler Board, Exehance Editor 4, 5: Senior Social Committee 5: Tattler Collector 4: Annual Collector 5. Rattlety-Bang-Crash! No, it isn't a street car, but just Dale, coaxing his latest bargain along on three cylinders and two tires. Dale came orig- inally from the tough village of Chicago, so it is not diflicult to appreciate his aHection for Cas- cadilla Park. He will wave a Red and White Ban- ner on the campus this fall, so-behave your- self, Dale! THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL GRACE PAULINE BIRD Birdie Bird 108 Catherine Street Annual Collector 1: Le Cerclc Francais 2, 3, 43 Science Club 2, 33 Dramatic Club 43 Op O' Me Thumb 43 O Lovely Night 2: Hero and Leander 23 Wreck nf the Hespcrus 43 Lady of Shalott 43 Senior Stunt 43 Senior Play 4. After a titanic four-year struggle with divers sorts of learning and enough study UD to sink anyone of less buoyant temperament, Birdie is at last entitled to a sheepskin. Dancing is Bird's favorite indoor sport and as for her out- door exercise, we might suggest skating or mo- toring. Combining pleasure with education, Birdie is sure to succeed, and all our wishes for her wel- fare are superfiuous. EMILY BOSTWICK Emmie R03 East Seneca Street Hero and Leander 3: O Lovely Night 2, 33 On Shore and Sea 2: Miller's Wooinir 2: Wreck of the Hesperus 1, 43 Lady of Shalott 43 Choral Club 1, 2, 3, 4, President 2, 3, 43 Lo Cercle Francais 43 Science Club 2, 3, 4: Dramatic Club 2, 34, 43 Freshman Play 23 Legislative Assembly 3, 4, Treasurer 3, 43 General Council 3, 43 Senior Stunt 4: Sserirnoc-itna lilun 3, 43 Class Historian 4. You have before your eyes the noble features of one of the foremost of our senior class. It is a great honor to present Miss Emily Bostwick, who is really a fine, likable girl-bright, intelli- gent, and with a keen sense of humor. It is with tears in our eyes that we part from our dear old Ithaca High, but friends such as Emily will al- ways continue to be true ones, and that is a great compensation.

She has so many ami- able qualities that one doesn't know where to begin in enumerating them. During the last few years, 'Dodie has roamed these halls, al- ways helping the needy with a willing hand and cheering the disconsolate with her giggle. With the coveted B.S., Doe hopes to come back and teach. So 'til we meet again, Dorie, may the best of luck go with you. SENIOR KNOCKS JEANNETTE ELENA BROWN Jinnie Brownie Squeak Abbie 213 Cascadilla Park Dramatic Club 2. 3, 4: Freshman Class Play 1: Three Pills in a Bottle 3: Dramatic Club Sprim: Plays 2: The Violin Maker of Cremonau: Neighbors 4: Senior Class Play 4: Science Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Vice-President 4: Ithetaeria 2, 3, 4: Legislative Assembly 4: Le Cercle Francais 4: Se- nior Class Day Committee 4: Senior Stunt 4: Field Hockey: The Millf-r's Wooimr 3: Ssersznoc-itna Blue 3, 4. All the world's a stage, and Jinnie's been walking that stage pretty fast lately. Did you ever see her when she wasn't in a hurry to do something? Just try to keep up with Brownie l This little dame hails from the wild, rocky cliffs of Caseadilla River. She thinks she is going to be a learned French and Latin teacher. And as an elocutionist, she is unsurpassed as she never gives anyone else a chance. She's quite an act- ress too, and played the part of gawky Rosalie of the Senior afair to perfection. LAURENCE HUGH CALEY lKCaL!7 HCaley!7 621 West Buffalo Street Baseball 2, 3: Football 1, 2, 4: Home Room Basketball 2, 3. Jack Sprat had no fat, but here is a young' fel- low who has over one hundred and fifty pounds of hard-working fat. Laurence left us last year to go to Florida. He has worked hard during his high school days, and although he is in bad with some teachers, he has finally pulled the Henry Clay act and come out on top. Caley is a popular lad among the boys and girls, and all of them are sure to miss his Waking ways. We all wish Laurence the best of luck, and hope he doesn't forget his high school friends later on.

Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of studious Clarkie's school career, He took some Latin but not much Greek And he loved to swim in old Fall Creek: Though some say he was a bashful man, If he saw a girl, he never ran: But all in all, he's a peach of a guy, And we pile our good wishes clear to the sky. 1 TIIE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL ROGER EMMHONS COLES KlR'Og,77 llRa.iah!? 216 Wood Street Home Room Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4: Home Room Basclmll 1: Science Club 1, 2, 3, 4: Hero and Leander 3. Here it is, the one and only living specimen of a cross between a clam and a sponge. He is like a clam in that he never says much, but he can absorb knowledge as a sponge absorbs water. He has gone through high school so fast that the teachers could hardly keep up with him. Rog doesn't spend all his time studying. We are not sure as yet what Rajah will do next year, but he will succeed in whatever line of work he takes up. WILLIAM FRANCIS CORGEL Bill Wil-Yum Corgelicus 115 First Street Football 3: Track 4: Home Room Basketball 1, 2, 3: Home Room Baseball 1: Wreck of the Hesperus 1: Hero and Le- ander 3. If you hear that Bill's around, let us explain that Bill came to us five long years ago, a shy, bashful boy. During those years Will-yum did his best, and now look at his picture. That's his reward. Bill was a frequent visitor at Mr. Reals' office, and there was something magnetic about that office: ask Bill, he'll tell you. Now he thinks it's time to see what's on the hill, where the sun rises every morning falthough Bill never saw it risej. So long, Bill, here's good luck to you. We hope you get everything you go after.

Yes, Dough is going to leave us. She came from the Campus School four years ago into our midst, in order to try her hand in higher educa- tion. The time has been well spent, for aside from the fact that she has overcome the monster, Regents, she has also made many friends by her cheery smile and winning ways. The Seniors, in signing off from Station I, H. S., wish to an- nounce that we are glad to have had her as a classmate, and that our best wishes go with her.

Here we have the crowning characteristics of a perfect scholar. Clair has accomplished the remarkable feat of passing everything from Bi- ology to Trigonometry in the last four years of school and now he has reached the highest pin- nacle of high school learning. Even when it comes to athletics, Clair is always somewhere near the top of the list. Clair has already se- cured his passport for the good ship Cornell, Well, Bon Voyage, Clair. W. EUGENE DENNIS llGene!! Forest Home Swimming Team fl, -I: llarliamcnt 1, 23 Science Club 2, 3, 4. This chubby, cheerful, lover of the out-of-doors, is one of the mainstays of the swimming team. As a plunger, he has won quite a few points for his Alma Mater. t'Gene is generally a quiet sort of a lad, but, should you get him out in his galloping Ford, you would soon see the change. We don't know what he intends to do after he graduates, though we think his mind is set in the direction of mechanics or science. But whatever he chooses as his life work, we wish him the best of luck.

Well, t'Pete has been a very dear friend, And I hate to think that this is the end. In fairness and courage, she seemed to gleam, Winning herself a place on the team, Her laug'hing eyes and charming ways Made her a success in Dramatic Club plays. Florence goes away to college next fall And good luck may she have, is the wish of us all. ROBERT PATRICK DRISCOLL CCB0b!! 423 East Seneca Street Congress Zi, 4, 5, President Pro-Tem 5: Glee Club 55 As- sistant Manager of Basketball 31 Manager of Basketball 4. You have undoubtedly heard of that famous institution, the I. H. S. Congress. Well, would you believe it-our little friend on the left is none other than the dignified speaker of said body and now and then, when a debate waxes warm, great bursts of oratory can be heard. Driscoll has been in the process of gradua- tion for some time, but now it looks as if it were really going to happen. Here's to you and yours, Bob. May you have a long and happy existence and don't forget you've got a chance to be presi- dent. THEODORE HILDRETH EATON, Jr. KlTedH 105 Brandon Place Ia- Cerclr Francais 3, 4: Science Club 2. 3, 4. No doubt you have heard about this young man before. Yes, you're right,-he's the entomolo- gist. Although still comparatively young, Ted has accomplished a great deal more than getting a high school education. In fact, Ted's time has been so taken up with entomology that he has not found much room for social or athletic activities. He has, furthermore, considerable ambition in the literary field, and it's certain you will hear of him later on. Best wishes of the class of '26, Ted!

This fair young miss has been in high school only three and a half years. She is among the youngest in her class. Those who know her will agree that Edith is one of the most conscientious of students, so we feel confident that when she gets her M. D., she will receive it with honors. Edee-U is also musically talented, and she may advance along this line some. At any rate IVe all wish her great success in whatever she docs, and we all bid her a fond farewell. MYRA EMERSON CCMy,!

Just take one glance at Myra's eyes and you'll know why everyone says she is beautiful. My , a member of the Cliff Dwellers, has decorated the halls of the Ithaca High School for four busy years and had made nervous wrecks of more than one of the teachers, with her steady flow of con- versation. She is the kind of a girl who would love school if it weren't for the classes, but she has managed to bluff most of the teachers, and so is about to end her high school career with Commencement. Myra expects to enter Cornell in the fall. We know that she will make a great success of it without any trouble. BENJAMIN THORPE FIELD Ben Bennie R. F.

Ben is one of the most illustrious members of our Five Year Club: and those five years have been well spent! He's gone through math from Algebra to Trigonometry, like a cyclone, and has dumbfounded each and every ingenious teacher. Now he seeks new worlds to conquer. Ben be- lieves that haste makes waste, and that candy is brain-food. Stick by your beliefs, Bennie, old man: they've treated you fine so far. Next year, Ben is going to wear a little gray cap, and doesn't intend to cut any classes in Ag. Don't give up, Ben, you can do it and we're all behind you.

After much effort, he has also waded through Virgil with honors. Next year, a few of the lucky ones will see Norm's smiling Visage among the art students of Cornell. For five years, Fitz's good cheer has graced our halls of knowledge, and now his friendly greeting will be missed. Norm has helped to further the pur- poses of three of our clubs. In the Cert-le Francais his fluent French has been welcome, and his fun appreciated. The Ithetaeria has also been lucky enough to attract Fitz, with the re- sult of fun and good cheer for every one. We all join in wishing him success in every and any- thing he may do. MARGARET G. FOWLER KCPeg.77 lCMidg,e7!

MARJORIE GRANT Margie Marge 505 East State Street O Lovely Night 25 Hero and Leander 1, 4: On Shore and Sea 3. Here's Marjorie, all ready to go out in the wide world to make her fortune. This dark-eyed maiden is always laughing and making friends wherever she goes. She is loved by students and teachers. Though Margie is young, she is fin- ishing high school in three and one-half years. She especially likes to do shorthand and type- writing Cmaybej. Margie is always cheerful and ready for a good time. She may look quiet but she really isn't. All joking aside, Marjorie cannot help being successful in whatever she un- dertakes.

He has since entertained us with his brilliant exploits in football, and who hasn't seen Wildcat chasing the puck? tHe also shines in his classes'?J Aside from this, Ed is a strong factor in the noble body, Congress. According to the news reports from Forest Home, Valentino and Edward are synonymous words. Next fall, Ed ascends the hill and we all wish him the best of luck, for a better friend and good fellow is hard to find.

Lol Hear the gentle lark, and then gaze upon the angelic countenance of this wild Irish beauty. Funny-Face has a motto Worse late than never, and as a result, is seen very often in- dulging in her favorite pastime, the death-defy- ing stunt of sliding down the banisters. Never- theless, Dutchess makes a first-class friend, and her many admirers, including the teachers, will be glad to see her go-to college. MILDRED IRENE HARRIS Millie Mil 614 West State Street 0 Lovely Night 2: On Shore and Sea 2: Hero and Loan- rlrr 3: Science Club 3. Millie has decided to bid farewell to the Ithaca High School, and take up a new line of work. We don't know exactly what this will be, but we will probably find her pounding the keys of some typewriter in the office of some great man. We all like to hear Mildred's gay outbursts of laughter through our halls, for she is really a humorous person. Millie, We are sorry to see you leave us, but we all wish you success in all you may encounter in the future.

We wonder when she has found time to study, for she seldom disturbs the peace of her books at night. The news is true, all the same, and she says she will miss the old school. I am sure your classmates will miss you, Mil, and we all wish you good fortune, in your chosen profession of nursing. THELMA CECIL HAVENS Cecil Tommy 307 South Aurora Street Science Club 2, 3: Hero and Leander 35 O Lovely Night 2, 3: On Shore and Sea 2. Halt! Here is the History shark. She came down from the wilds of Trumansburg just three years ago. Since that time, the Ithaca High School has never boasted of a brighter or more industrious member than Tommy. When Thelma leaves this school, she is going to be a stenographer. Certainly, she will rise to a higher position, and we won't be surprised if, in the future, we pick up a book with the title of How to Run the Office of a Large Business Concern by Thelma Havens, famous secretary.

But Hinners springs from the neighboring state of Jersey. Maybe that's the stamping ground of them there Valentinos. Shouldn't wonder. And in the fall, Herby will climb the old mountain for a five-year struggle with architecture. Here's to you, Hinners, and may you design us a new City Hall!

Even her faults are com- plements to her virtues. Was she ever late for school? Well, how could 'tBeauty be always on hand? Of course, Bert hated to leave us this June, but, because ot' her brilliant inclinations, and Mr. Hickey's profound tutoring, she is really gone forever. Popular, a good sport, patron of the Charleston--in parting, she is leaving' a large gap in the hearts of her classmates. PAULINE B. HOISINGTON lipaull!

Pauline, one of our most eminent Cliff Dwellers, has been a chief Buffalo trotter for four long years. Paul can always be depended upon, especially to make up good excuses for tardiness. But she never has to offer an excuse in mirth or Latin class. It's sad to relate, but this remarkable young lady has only one fault: her willingness to do all the wo1'k. During the next four years we expect Polly to help pull us less brilliant ones through the University.

Words are inadequate to describe this young lady. Bernie is an exclusive miss for she comes to school but part of the day, which'fact is a great calamity to her numerous friends. Beans certainly has a host of them, too, for she is a good scout, in more ways than one, and is highly esteemed by the members of her troop. For the past few years, she has been a diligent student of the Commercial Department. Tiny- Tot will surely make an excellent private secre- tary for somebody, if she doesn't decide to be- come a nurse, instead.

Probably half the people in school are just learning what Pete's first name really is, be- cause it has long been a mystery. No kidding though, a miracle is about to happen right here before our eyes. Pete is graduating! She is our little songbird, and now the canary is Hitting the cage. However, we can go to hear her at the Metropolitan some day, so don't cry too loud. Good luck, Peter! ELNORA BERTHA HUNGERFORD Nora Tootsie R. D. 3, Ithaca Science Club 3, 4. Just look who's here! There is no doubt that everyone knows Elnora. Four years ago, she en- tered these Vast halls of instruction to acquire knowledge. She has studied hard f?J and has been successful in completing her course. Now, 1926 finds her leaving Ithaca High, for a broader region of learning. We are all going to miss her, for she has been a true friend to everyone and loyal to her school. 'tTootsie has planned to pursue a course on the hill next fall, and her many friends wish her success.

For the usual quota of years, this grand personage has wandered, aimlessly, at times, per- haps, through these noble halls of learning. Seek- ing recreation from his mental efforts, Mac has gone into the plumbing business. Even with this added responsibility, he is still a man of lei- sure, jumping into his clothes and tearing off to school, if Dame Fortune be with him, in time for the third period. At the culmination of his high school career, 'tMac is planning to make a little sojourn into Dixie Land. Well, Hyde, be good, and don't get lost in the cotton fields. ELEANOR IRVIN Ithaca This, my friends, is the fair lass who causes the teachers so much excitement. Although she never seems to be studying very hard, she always man- ages to come out on top. In fact, she has reached the goal of graduation, which, we might say, is an accomplishment. She has not yet revealed to us her plans for the future, but we rest assured, by her past record, that she will fulfill our high- est hopes for her.

Four years previous, this blithe youngster made his presence heard Knot knownj, around this local institution playing the antique slipa- phone or as Webster says, the trombone. Soon it was noticed that Hughy was a staunch mem- ber of the studious minority which so frequently burns the midnight oil Cbetween here and Danibyj. Nevertheless, Slick kept the Glee Club from bumping the rocks, this year by his inspira- tional fwarlikeb warbling. If everyone gets out of Hughy's way, it is fairly safe to wager that he'll be a bigger and better butter and egg man some day. GEORGE S. JONES Jack Deac Buck Jonesy Next to the eclipse of the sun, the greatest event of the twentieth century is the graduation of Jack. Deac left us this January after five and one-half years of toiling, but we are sure that his time was not wasted, at least not all of it. Buck's greatest pleasure was trotting around with Caesar, and never was he so happy as the day he chased him across the Bridge of Regents. During' Jonesy's stay with us he has not been idle, for his innocent face has won many friends. George has not made a decision on his future, but he is thinking of becoming a draftsman. We envy his talent along this line, but wish him success. HAROLD ELSWORTH JONES Jonesy Shrimp f'Shorty 116 West Clinton Street Track 3, 4: Cross Country 4: Science Club 3, 4: liaucl 3, 4.

It is beyond our power to describe the trouble Latin has caused Shorty, but in math. he has soared far beyond our highest hopes. There is no tell- ing what the bright young lad Will do. Next year Shrimp expects to withdraw himself from our midst, and finish building up his foundation for the future, as he has built foundations for radio sets.

Friends, I offer for your approval, a short ex- planation of why we have cinder paths for the great spring' sport of Track: At the Olympic Games in 776 B. C., the final event was the quar- ter mile dash around the stadium. Keeny, a champion of Sparta, was entered, but was con- sidered a dark horse by the oracle at Delphi. At the crack of the whistle fpopb, t'Willie tore around the oval so fast and furiously that his winged feet became red hot, and the turf be- neath his smoking sandals turned to a mass of smouldering cinders. As the smoke of his great run cleared away, Spud was victor over his nearest rival, Pheidippides, by a scant 200 yards and was thereby awarded the wreath of olive foill.

When- ever a real old Hivver is seen flying' towa1'd the Ithaca High School, you may know that it is Bill, Ile always gets here on time, so it is safe to say that he keeps his Hivver in perfect condition. As to his studies, whatever knowl- efl'e 'APop does not have is not worth possess- ing. After school, Willie spends his extra time tuning up his famous automobile and digest- ing radio problems. 'fBill intends to enter Cor- nell in the fall in quest of further knowledge, and we all wish him the best of luck. JAMES STEPHEN KNAPP 6lJim!! KlSteVe79 201 Cliff Street It is hard to believe that Steve is going to graduate. About four years ago he entered this noble institution with the intention of acquiring some knowledge. Has he been successful? No one will ever know. Anyway, Jim intends to leave us this year, if nothing happens before June arrives. During his career, he has played Home Room Basketball and Baseball, and has also been a member of the sophomore baseball team. We must agree that Steve is a good fel- low, and whatever may be his intentions, we wish him the best success.

Would you believe that she is the chief artist in the lthaca High School? If you don't, just ask any- one on the Tattler,' Board. But that does not mean that she has an artistic temperament, be- cause everyone who knows Anne loves her.

VERONICA MALONE Varna 713 North Cayuua Street Class llasketlsall I, 2: Varsity Basketball fl. 4: On Shore and Sea 2: 0 Lovely Night 2: Annual Reporter 3. 43 Class Pm-TJ 4. What blissful memories those two names bring to us! Varna is our star basketball player, and our most harmonious poet. All too soon was her career thwarted, the cause-a mere pivot. Nev- ertheless, it was not many days before she was back among us, smiling and plying' her trade as our best senior knocker. Veronica has long been in demand as a home room reporter for her sense of humor is well known. We certainly do miss Varna from the basketball squad, but one al- ways Hnds her present at a game. As for selling tickets, she's a whiz. Every time anybody wants a ticket sold, he goes to 'tVarna and soon the money starts to rattle in her little tin box. We feel that she will be greatly missed for she is right there, when it comes to doing' her bit. THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL BRINK GARRETT MAPES Forest Home Basketball League 45 Hockey 4. Some years back, this jovial youth broke into our ranks, from the inclines of Forest Home and, after a rather checkered career, he has at last decided to leave us. To gaze upon his beaming countenance, one would think he had never a care in this world, but here is one of the in- stances when looks are misleading. When Brink is contributing to his discomforts, he is absent on general principles. At last, however, dogged perseverance and endless patience have carried him within sight of the coveted goal of gradua- tion. CARRIE MARION K Mary Ann R. F.

K has studied ardently at the Ithaca High School for four short years, for the perfectly sane purpose of graduating with this famous class. Is this the end? Of course not. During this time Mary Ann learned to 'play the Violin, and created a sunny smile which we shall miss. Well, Carrie, you surely will be well liked as a nurse, for you are Very patient.

Behold and cease your flight, O ye stars! We have with us that most renowned heart-smasher, Warren Marshall. Billy has been mixing pleas- ure and work in equal proportions during his high school career, and has nearly finished amus- ing Mr. Virgil by reading his wise cracks back- wards. Although Shorty admits that he never studies, he has accomplished the record-breaking feat of completing a four-year course in four years, without flunking one subject! SENIOR KNOCKS ANNA LEONE MATTESON Armen 202 Eddy Street Science Club 4. This bright little miss came from Utica here, To spend with us, her senior year. Although she's been here such a Wee little while, We fell easy prey to her frank, winning smile. She is gay, she is sweet, as you plainly can seeg Just the kind of a pal, one would wish her to be. Now, Anna, your fortune we'll endeavor to tell, We predict great success, for you, up at Cornell.

DONALD McPHERSON Dutch Funny-Face , Saundie', 203 White Park Road Congress 3, 4, Chairman of Membership Committee 45 Cleo Club 45 Hockey l, 4, Captain 43 Treasurer of Senior Class 4. This is a McPherson. A Saundee Mucphaur- sun: of race, rare and valuable. He is classitied as a Don or Donald, owing to the surprised features of his face. Donald is called Dutch because he is Scotch. His laugh is explained by the potentiality of electrostatic. Outside of this, his worst habit is playing' hockey, in fact, the Cornell coach was so overcome by his skill that he applied Dizzy to his already weary name. 'tDizzy also excels in numerous other sports, among them Congress and positions of high Hn- ance. Saundee has very, very cautiously let it be known that he will enter the coed's paradise up the incline. THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL CHARLES P. MEAD l ll 9? Cl Y! KC Y!

It was a great day in our history, when he entered the south door for the first time. He is now planning on one more event. That is when he walks out for the last time. Every one will miss Put when he is through here, for he is one of those busy boys who constantly keep things moving, espe- cially when the teacher is not present. Char- ley's paramount object is to be Abel to go to Olean, but while he is planning his trip, he is going to Cornell, and take Forestry as a sideline. May all your dreams come true, Chuck.

Leroy has left us, right in the midst of this terrible win- ter. Roy has been a hard-working lad, these four years and, has Iinally managed to get through. Roy loves athletics and plays basket- ball and baseball. Le is sure to be missed by the baseball team, as he is a hard-working lad, and that is the kind who makes good on the team. We all wish Twinsy the best of luck, in this large world, and we know he will surely make good. SENIOR KNOCKS PIIILLIP ALLEN MILLER Phil 314 North Geneva Street lm Ccrele Ifrancais 1 3 Science Club fig Ithetaeria 4: Foster Memorial Scholarship 3. See this young gentleman with apparently quiet and retiring mien? You can't always tell from first glance, no-far from that. Phil is always doing the impossible, and really doing it. Our young friend has had more scholarships and scholastic honors affixed to his name than has any other person for miles and miles around, for years and years. Phil evidently doesn't think much of the old Ithaca High School, because he has worked like a Trojan so he could graduate in a half year less than the usually required time. Never mind, Phil, we won't hold that against you. But Phil's studious efforts are still in their infancy. Years of toil and struggle are ahead, before he eventually becomes the posses- sor of that coveted degree in Chemistry, but he'll get it, never fear. CHARLES RAYMOND MILLER K6RayH 66TWinSy!9 225 Cleveland Avenue Home Room llasehall 3: Home Room Iiuskellrall 2. 3. All flasr-hall Il. -1. It is our misfortune this June to lose one of our best friends. Twinsy has been with us four years, and during that time he has been a very popular member of the class, especially with the girls. His taking ways are rather astonish- ing. He is even going to walk off with a diploma, without working for it. However, he does do a little work, for he drives a truck around, during school hours as well as after. Ray is also a successful basketball player, being captain of his home room team and playing on other outside teams. Though we shall miss him, our best wishes ge with him in whatever he may attempt. ISABELLA STEWART MITCHELL Bella Bell Forest Home Home Room liasketball fl: Science Club 4. Alas! girls, our fair Bella is leaving us. From the rising plains of Forest Home, 'lBell daily winds her way seeking knowledge and gaining it by hardf?J study. She may seem quiet, but looks are deceiving, and for four short years, her merry laughter has resounded through these halls. Next fall, she is going on the hill, and her greatest ambition is to be a teacher. In this we all wish her success. THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL MARGARET MARY MONE Hpegii C6MOnie7! 66Margie77 710 East State Street We're at last at the important part of this book. Although it took Monie five years of hard C'?J study to get her picture here, it is an adornment for the Class of '26, and well worth waiting for. Margie is an all-round good scout, and excels in almost everything she does. We must admit her favorite sport is dancing, but next best 4'Peg adores Buck hunting. Aside from having a good time the rest of her life, Meme has decided to take up something prac- tical and become a dental nurse. Who wouldn't like to be one of her patients?

This face ought to be an inspiration to any artist or photographer. The inspiration would be to shoot himself. Car lives half-way up the hill, so, as he hasn't far to go, he decided to en- ter Ezra's school for girls and boys. By the way, according to logical sequence, about ten years from now, some of you will want to have a house designed.

Can you bear some terrible news? A very dear friend, we're going to lose, Marj plans to leave us and go up to college, To Cornell she'll go to receive some more knowledge, Her smiles and her jokes will be missed by us all, And the manner in which she would Bob round the hall. Her heart is like gold, and her charms are not few, So, Marjorie, here's hoping-good luck to you! FLOYD MARTELLE PARKE Sparkie Parksie Sparkplug 606 West Court Street Seienee Club 4. All men are created equal, but not in size, for Floyd towers above us all, when it comes to height. He has spent these four high school years in hard study, always excelling in Oral Eng- lish. At last, 'tSparkplug has arrived on the smoothQ?J but long road to Education, and we all hope he will stick to it. His passport will probably take him to some higher institution, maybe Cornell. When Floyd leaves us, we wish him the best of luck in this large outdoors into which he must go.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to the fair-haired Jean. She is a very ambitious student, having graduated in January. Every night, before she left school, if you had looked in Room 207, you would have found Sparker en- gaged in helping Miss Wager. Although Rink Rank has a love for art, we hear that she isn't going to follow that calling. However, the best wishes of the senior class are with you, Jean, in whatever you undertake.

This is station WREP broadcasting from the Annual Tarry a moment and gaze upon the youthful countenance of this young electrician. Lately Broadcastin' Parry has been amusing himself and others by conducting Radio Broad- casting Station WREP. What he doesn't know about electricity isn't worth knowing. fFaet is, his favorite expression is 'tBlew out another fuse last night. J We might add that he is Mr. Hick- ey's assistant. After slowly plodding through dear old Ithaca High School for four years, hc is new ready to graduate. After a post-graduate course he will Hit to the Poly Tech at Troy where, we hope, Raoul will become a member of the WHAZ staff. ALICE MARIAN PATTERSON Allie Pat R. F. D. 5. Ithaca Well, here's Alice. After four short years of study, she is planning to leave us. When she goes, the old Ithaca High School will lose one of its best pupils and we, one of our best friends. Not only has Allie succeeded in passing short- hand on half-time, but she has actually learned to type with four fingers instead of fore-fingers. But this does not mean that she is all studious, for when it comes to a good time or a remedy for the blues, it is to her we turn. Next year, Alice expects to try to tell some man how to run his business. Well, here's to your success, and don't take any wooden nickels.

By means of hard work, Mary Ella is able to have her picture with the rest of the dignified seniors. Whatever you intend to do in the future, Mary, the wish for your success from your classmates goes with you. SENIOR KNOCKS DAVID B. PIERCE Dave Pierce Squint 424 East Seneca Street This space is entirely too small to go into de- tail about Dave, But there is no reason why he should need any lengthy explanation. Every- one knows Pierce, and why shouldn't they? He it is who takes a back seat for no one, es- pecially in the class room. Although Squint has been with us for only three years, he has as many friends as those who spend the greater part of their youth here. Dave has not yet de- cided where he will finish his education, but we are sure that he will succeed in whatever he un- dertakes. ROBERT LEON QUICK Bob Quickie 1011 North Titus Avenue Hero :ind lnander 3: Wreck of the Hesnerus 4. No spoofing, is Bob going to graduate al- ready? It's true. During the four short years this intelligent-looking youth has been with us, he has established several records such as fiunk- ing chemistry several times, and pulling an ex- ceedingly high mark in history. He loves dear old Ithaca High so much that he is returning next year for post-graduate work. After that, he in- tends to glide through Cornell.

She was so famous that she was chosen to crack a senior stunt. Who knows, but that, after her course on the Hill, she may become a member of the Metropolitan Opera Company? Her quiet, friendly nature has brought her safely through her four years of work, till now we can say in conclusion Still waters run deep. THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL EDWARD ALLEN RICHARDSON CCEd7!

From thence comes the occasion known as graduation. His intentions are to be- come a nursery forester and we can all imagine him rocking the little trees to sleep. JOHN SITTS RIDLEY Johnny Fusser Grinder 324 Pleasant Street Glee Club 42 Contrress 4: Wreck of the Hesperus 4. Well, here he is at last, the answer to a Maid- en's Prayer. Johnny is not only bright, but he even aspires to be Miss Ashton's star pupil. He dropped into our gathering a short five years ago, and he is still dropping. Provided that luck is with him, in the course of the next few years, he will probably drop out of our midst, into some lucky college. He's a good fellow and we can feel that those who associate with him in later life, will find in him a real friend. ROBERT RONALD RIGHTMYER Rightie Binks Bob R. F. D. 3. Ithaca As we close and seal our books for another year, we find recorded in our register the name of Rightie, who has for four years paddled his way far beyond his expectations and has at last reached his goal, that of a dignified senior. Just one glance at the picture beside this article will reveal the amount of knowledge that this lad has absorbed in the business line.

Bob is quite a radio fan, and they say he is trying to invent something that will be able to broadcast hooch on dam- pened waves, but this report is not oHicial.

So this is Peggy, the dignified secretary of this illustrious class. If the truth were known about this precocious infant, we would learn that her talents run not always toward Cicero and Shakespeare, but oft-times turn lingeringly in the direction of enjoyment. She is the sort of girl who makes true friends everywhere, and when she goes to Cornell next year, we hope she will not forget the many admiring associates of her high school days.

Four or five years ago, there came to our high school, a youth, one Big Boy Seely. His last year was spent in endeavoring to find work enough in school to allow him to remain on the team. Having chosen enough studies to suit his fancy, he set out finding another, to form the Triangle about which he had heard in Geom- etry. As the term draws nearer its inevitable close, we see him embarking upon the sea of en- deavor, and we sincerely wish him the success he so richly deserves.

There'll be plenty of hills, both for him and his Max, but he'll succeed. He always does. If hard work fails, he can al- ways get by on his grin. Herc's the best of luck, Van, and don't forget us.

Besides Robert's note- worthy habit of punctuality, he has to his credit the fact that he was Assistant Art Editor of the Annual, and also that he was a member of the Tennis Team. As Dictionary is an ardent stu- dent, he is an exponent of the nebular hypothesis, also of the ectoplasmic theory. Bobby has been hurrying through Ithaca High School pretty fast, but it is a known fact that when Nature made the squash, she only took six months. There is still hope for Robert, as he intends to drink deeper of Wisdonrs bitter hemlock cup in a Prop. School next fall. THE ITHACA HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL PEARLE IAN WESTERVELT KCPOi17! lCThe Kid!! HP.

As a member of the American Numismatic As- sociation, he has amassed a fine collection of coins, whose histories are enchanting. He is also a polished cosmopolite. An ardent student of the French language, he gave a talk before Le Cercle Francais, and exhibited a choice number of French coins. Friends of 'KBill are strongly reminded of his English ancestry by his speech and pleasant mannerisms. SENIOR KNOCKS WAYNE ERNEST WILLIS R.

Right this way, ladies and gentlemen, and cast your eyes on the countenance of this dark- haired youth from the hills of Forest Home. This young fellow is something of an English shark, and in French class, he is second to very few. Besides these linguistic abilities, Wayne is also quite an athlete, playing on many teams in and around his Alma Mtaer. Now, after roaming these halls of learning for four years, more or less, he has finally decided to leave us and seek higher knowledge on the Hill. His smiling face will be missed by his many friends, but they all wish him the best of luck in his fu- ture campaign.

The following explains why they all look so intelligent: 201 is The House of Knowledge at the top of a steep hill-the Hill of Success. This hill is surmountable by two paths. The first, which is the best and safest, is the Way of Learning, and here we find among the fore- most climbers, Levina and Marie VanDyke, Eloise Lueder, Elnora Hunger- ford and Anna Makarainen. The back way is by Bluff Path, very steep, very dangerous, and difficult to climb. In fact, it is so difficult that only two people have managed to reach the top successfully-Emily Bostwick, and Wilhelmina Barton. Ruth MacNaugher and Alice Mone cling to the sixty-mark, and Thelma Havens, Cecilia Lewis, and Grace Tucker, with Helen Yenei and Bernice Howland, after falling into the Slough of Laziness below, decided to try the front path thereafter. Before the house, for decorative purposes, is a garden of flowers. The roses are Florence Scott and Jeannette Brown, while the pansies are none other than Bertha Hitching and Edith Sharpe. Margaret Mone and Margaret Saxe are sweet peas. The house itself must have a strong foundation. This is composed of Rachel Ashdown, Edith Egbert, Catherine Udall, Selma Urband, Helen Rice and Arlene Nuttall. For further support, some bricks are necessary- Edna Smith, Dora Brotherton, Margaret Fowler, Dorothea Davis, and Myra Emerson. The Electrique Belle is Florence Donohue, always buzzing about, over nothing at all. She causes much work for the eflicient and ever- busy doorkeeper, Miss McAllister. Within, many girls are hard at work. Eloise Jenkins and Mary Peter- son, with Vivian Rich and Leona Rogers are constantly washing the Dust of' Misunderstanding from the windows, to let in the Light of Intelligence. Down cellar, Alice Patterson, Carrie Marion and Alzie Robertson, with Isabella Mitchell and Anna Matteson to help, stoke the furnace and keep alive the Coals of Enterprise, while Dorothy Stuart, Elsie Smith, Margaret Sullivan, and Sarah Welch let out the extra hot air. Looking back along the road, we see a dense cloud of dust. As it draws nearer, we can distinguish Neva Dickens and 'Barbara Wyckoff coming along at a fast trot on their ponies. There is one more way to get up the hill, that we didn't mention at first because we weren't very sure about it. We think that you can get up if you fasten yourself to a rope strung over a pulley and then pull. Anyway, no one saw Pauline Bird and Pauline Hoisington coming up the Steps of Learning or by the Blui Path, so they must have come up some other way. 65 ROOM 206 Perhaps Being an extract from a logbook kept by Captain William Stocking of the good ship Herbert John Hinners No. 206 of the Ashton and Frair Steamship line. By the way of explanation :-the good old ship has been completely re- finished and put in first class order. The antiquated Scofield boilers and Richardson turbines have been replaced by Miller Bros. Diesel type crude oil engines. The work was in charge of the chief engineer and expert steamfitter, D. M. Hyde, and his first assistant, Norman Fitzgerald. Now things are all ready, and the log begins with: Jan. 31, 1999--I have finally, after great deliberation, picked my under officers as follows: Robert Roth, first mate: John Ridley, second mate, and Leigh Batterson, third mate. The important and responsible oflice of cabin boy went to my own dear great-grandson, Charles Treman. Jan. 32. A trial trip was made early this afternoon and the expert timer and calculator, Prof. Driscoll, after many sharpenings of his pencil and scratchings of his head decided that our speed was .3 knot, bettering our old record by approximately .00034 knot. Jan. 33. Put to sea at 8 bells. As we were leaving the wharf, two of our steerage passengers, Ralph Parry and Warren Marshall, felt a strong lure from the feminine section of those left behind and forthwith jumped overboard and swam ashore. Jan. 34. Early this morning, we passed the Ethereal Islands and the sweet essence of onions was wafted to our nostrils by the gentle morning zephyrs from the scientific onion farm run by Ben Field for Dean, Eaton, and Parke. Jan. 35. A terrible storm came up today and three able-bodied sea- men, Charles Mead, Robert Love, and Wayne Willis, who were aloft re- pairing the wireless aerial were blown overboard before the great fury of the tempest, and, sad to relate, we were unable to find any trace of them. Our world-renowned cook, Bill Whitwell, was thrown headforemost into a huge kettle of boiling soup. The cook's assistants, Kenelm Taylor, Bob VVebster and Harold Clark, were thrown against the stove but escaped with minor injuries. Two of the passengers, Manuel and Richard Llop, chefs by trade, kindly volunteered to serve in the galley. Jan. 36. Two well-known Congressmen, William Foran and Ralph Seely, witnessed the flight of a mail plane which flew overhead this morning. One claimed that it was only going 300 miles per hour, While the other in- sisted that it was traveling at 349.5 miles per hour. Just then, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Roger Coles, together with his adopted son, C-lair 'Nfah3,I11'1a,.C3YY1Q uh Rhri cottlud 'Clic .argun-ion1j by Stating the birdman was going at the rate of 333.33 miles per hom-. Jan. 37. I performed a wedding on board today. Married my old friend, Morris Nichols. to a Peruvian girl he met on board. His traveling companion, Gerald Allen, and a sailor named Lounsbery fwere the wit- nesses. A grand ball was held tonight in honor of the newlyweds. Won- derful music was furnished by Barlow's Chicken Hawks, featuring the well-known shoe horn soloist, Gardner O,Daniel. 67 ROOM 234 In the Year 234 As I was walking down the street An old-time friend I chanced to meetg She was short and dark and who do you s'pose'? 'Twas little Miss Miller like Venus in pose. Next I walked to the ten-cent store And there I met some friends of yore. Gladys Seaburg sold Cobb pipes, While Gladys Kirk played on the fifes. Dorothy Hopper, a demure little maid, Assisted by Hausner, disposed of the braid, Duke and Gere had charge of the rings Which were said to be patterned after the King's. Howser and Stevens took care of the birds, Teaching them songs without any words. Harris and Grant and Regina Grover Sold many soft drinks but remained quite sober. Ogden and Irving had charge of the clocks Which were being moved from a large wooden box Frances VanOrder with Harriet Skilling Were asleep on the job-Oh! 'Twas quite killing To watch manager Smith try to waken the sleepers While Herson and Evans sold little toy reapers. Flannery, Sawdon and Frances McCormick Advertised books on Don't be a Hickf' Martin, Farling, and Miss Buckingham Were trying to capture a fellow named Sam. In the meantime Hawkes and Helen Mahoney Raced down the aisle on the back of a pony. McFall, Sullivan, and Clara Lane Sold cheese cloth umbrellas to keep off the rain! Wrisley, Wasser, and Leora White Were sweeping the floors and making things right. Gibbs and Albright and Doris Danns Sold for a nickel some defective tin cans. Asmus and Lounsbery had charge of the tin ish While Mapes and Stilwell sold pearl headed pins. Westervelt, Snow, and Elizabeth Wheeler Had just bought a ten-cent potato pealer. Then I walked out in the open air And what do you think I saw out there? 'Marjl Palmer was chasing a 'Bob' to the West, Where her Oh! 'Henry' was, I haven't yet guessed. And Ella Matson, that shy little lass, Was selling tickets behind the glass Of the Happy Hour, which she did then own. 'Twas an old fashioned building made out of stone, While her ushers were Roberts and Thornhill. And the janitress a sight fit to kill. A Mother 'Hubbard' apron she was a-wearin' Our little June Slaght, so young and so darin'g The last of my friends-I saw, tho' quite late, 'Twas the street car conductor, Albertine Straight. As it was not easy to make this verse You will have to take it for better or worse. ROOM 207 The Oracle of 207 I, Semiabdullahabbott, as I gaze into my glass of mystery, am able to answer the questions of any pupils in 207.

Well, Ted, if you're tired of Washing dog tracks off your face, either lock the dogs outside or quit whistling in your sleep. I get the name of Couch. No, Bill, all fairies don't wear red ties, do you? Alfred Sullivan, next. Well, Al. as a debater, you look pretty well in your new Easter suit. I see the name of Bob McDonald. I can't read your mind, Bob. because there is nothing to read. What's this? Bill Corgel? Yes, Bill, I think Santy Claus will be good to you. I come to the name of Nixon Hadley. Yes, Nix, I think Dr. Miles' tablets for pen or pencil will either help or hinder you. I view the name of Phillip Miller. Yes, Phil, it depends entirely on the intricate allaphormation of the callorsy pallomadation. Do I make it clear? Well, well, if it isn't Herb VanOstrand. I can't answer such an impudent ques- tion, Herb. I greet the name of James Donohue. Yes, James, you're a hit with the girls, a good singer, a superb athlete, and an honor student, but remember-four out of every five! I get the name of Harry Hunter. Yes, Harry, you'll make quarterback at Vassar. The next is Alton Morse. Alty, you ought to be spanked for asking such a question. I next see the name of John Backner. Yes, the teachers like to see you chew gum in school. Be polite, pass it around. I come upon Edward Guthrie. It doesn't do a X!f1l?:i'! of good to use such language, Ed. QDon't translate that line.J Paul Vann, you want to know if she loves you? Which one? Laurence Tarbell wants to know how much 2 and 2 are. Well, 2 and 2 are-ah-are-, don't ask me, ask the teach- ers. That's what they are paid for. That's it-4! Next is Wathall Payne. Yes, fish food is stimulating for the brain. Better eat a lot. I see the name of Willard Buck. There's no use mone-ing, Willie.

No, Laurence, I cannot lend you a quarter. Yes, Alfred Tinker, you'll be President. You told me so yourself. I see the name of Robert Ellis. Well, Bob, you and Brill ought to fight this matter out.

Laurence Alexander asks, Who'll chop your suey when I'm gone? 355,000,000 will not be paid for the correct answer. Be patient, Hughie Jennings, there's plenty of time left to graduate. You're right, Alton Foote. You hit the hammer on the head, you hammerhead. fHe's right, just the same.J No, James Black Coffee Knapp, you wouldn't look any more foolisher if you Wore a hair ribbon around your neck. You couldn't. I gaze upon the name of James Sinclair. Is that your real name, James? Ellsworth Rumsey, your ques- tion is too dumb. You should eat fish food. Francis Smith is next. Yes, I think you can imitate an orang-outang. You don't need any make-up. I gaze upon the name of Robert Rightmyer. Yes, Robby, I think you should make your own dresses.

You say, Harold that you could dance forever more? Yes, but you don't want to go stumbling on through life, do you? Howard Williams, next. Yes, Howard, your name is Bill, and so is mine. Last of all is Miss Wager. I'll answer your question, Miss Wager, by saying that all the boys of 207 will not forget you and your fair and square dealings with them. 71 ROOM 209 The 209 oose All rights preserved Patents pending Price: one bite ITHACA HIGH PLAYERS WIN The 209 knitting quartet went up to defeat in the second contest of the sea- son, last evening. It was the most ex- citing game ever held in the local sew- ing-room. Ken Hurlbutt, who plays right needle for the locals, dropped a stitch in the first sleeve, and nearly un- ravelled the game, but Chambers, 209 stitch guard, recovered the yarn and saved the day. MEN FROM SOUTH BATTLE TOWARD NORTH POLE An extremely hot battle was fought be- tween Jerry Welch and Don Seeley in the North Hall, last Friday, at Both athletes were endeavoring to get ac- quainted with a new member of 201. Seeley broke loose and ran 60 yards for a knockdown, but Welch, being more :ic- customed to indoor sports, got ahead of his opponent by shooting a perfect glance from the foul line. POISONA LS J.

ROOM 233 Room 233 Cut-of-Doors After a long year of hard work plunging into books for knowledge, Room 233 has answered the call of freedom, and is now camping out in the deep woods. Ruth Bull, Frances Broder, Helen Drake, and Sarah Dyal are fixing their tents. Lula Hall, Beatrice Hauser, and Audrey are building a fire in an open space between two stones, while Helen Carty, Evelyn Fisher, and Peg Clarey are chatting away, as usual, in a corner. Soon a voice from the rear announces its owner's presence by saying, When are we going to eat? What are we going to do next? How long are we going to stay here? We know that it is Pauline Crutts. Don't know, says Isabel Bosworth, just appearing on the scene. By this time, the fire is sparkling brightly, it lights up the gloom in the forest and even Geney Banks' hair is aiiame. Ruth Beardsley, Jessie Parker, Marguerite Heffron, and Florence Drake soon wander up and join Christina Dunlap, Esther George, Mary Leary, Virginia Little and Ruth Horn, who are telling stories around the fire. Come on, girls, says Rose Kramer, jumping up. I am hungry. Come on, Louise and Dorothy. Wait a minute, girls. I want your money for this wonderful repastf' Though we thought that Dorothy Briggs had collected enough money, we were evidently wrong, for here she comes, with Janet Works, palms out! Alice Wilcox and Ruth VanMarter take out their purses with a groan. When we have been properly depleted, a silence en- sues, broken only by the cracking of jaws, as Ruth Carling, Glendora Rus- sell, Thelma Johnson, and Albertina Meyer eat the light cake made by Esther Lamb. After supper, someone suggests an exhibition dance by Mar- garet Hassan and Ruth Sanford-and what a combination I Margaret kicks her heels up in the latest Charleston steps, while Ruth prances, leaps and trips in the elfin dance of the woods. Shouts of applause from everyone ring through the forest. But all good times must come to an end, and Sarah Miller, Dorothy Merrill, and Catherine Mitchell are sleepy. Let's go to bed, pipes up Lucina VanDyke, and Harriet Steves sec- onds 'the motion. There is a rush for the tents, and presently snores issue from the open tent-flaps of the abode of Geraldine Wilson, Elizabeth Yaple, and Anna Zmek. They are more noisy when they are asleep than when they are awake! Ella Miller is not quite asleep, but she is talking in her dreams. Soon a soft step is heard. It is Miss Westfall, faithfully reviewing her charges, with an amused and ironical look on her face. 75 ROOM 211 Room 211 The Good Ship Kelly During the month of September, 1925, the good ship K-E-L-L-Y left from port with a crew of fifty-three and the captain, to sail to the port January Regents. At this place, nobody left us but all stuck to the ship. We next sailed to port June Regents, but on the way the crew wanted their names and pictures in this book, for the hard work they had accomplished. One day during a big storm, the captain, Miss Kelly by name, was giv- ing out orders. 'Ken' Cobb and Lee Bostwick, climb to the crowls nest and give watch for vessels, Merle Brown, 'Johnny' Christensen and Harold Fish take sounding off port side of ship. Later they came back and re- ported they could not hear a sound. 'Walt' Schlotzhauer, George Putney, 'Ken' Baker and 'Clo' Calistri, be ready to let down the jib when I give signal. 'Art' Townley, 'Bill' Phil- lips and 'Arm' Adams, reef in the top sail. It is not too rough to swab decks, so Herson, Fippin, Dean, Bool, and Rumball get busy. Four more of the day crew, Clint Fuller, Mike Fatula, Gord Reed, and Jimmie Otis were in the bottom of the ship, fixing up the old one-lung engine. The quartermaster, Thurston Gallagher, ordered Mert Genung and Art Jones to go down to the kitchen galley and help the cooks, Clyde Bul- lock and Tom Schwartz, get supper. Some of the night crew had already begun to come up from their bunks, and were showing what they could do in their lines. Art Noble and Bob Trapp were arguing as to which had the best creases in his trousers. Art Martin and Calk Calkins were having a Charleston Contest, while Bob Richtmyer was playing a tune on his fiddle. Connor came running up to the captain and reported an S. O. S. call which he interpreted as Sink or Swim, so he said he sent back It is O. K. with me. George Kimball and Pete Emig were asked by the cap- tain to see that the port and starboard lights were oiled. They came back and reported that they could not find any red or green oil. Of course, there are always some fellows that are forever calling for cats and these we had in Morris Blostein and Bill Mitchell on the K-E-L-L-Y. The first mate, Peanut Clarke, was on the bridge, and not a burning bridge either, as Kuhnly always thought it was. He was watch- ing a fog coming over the sea. He called for Ollie Smith and Lorrey Axtell to go forward and watch for ships: also. Tony Andrews, to keep the fog bell playing throughout the night. The wind had died down some- what, so more canvas was added by Oscar Lane and Bob Preswick. Clyde Craig and Merle Hagen were called to guide the ship to safety during the night. Bob Robinson and Doug Hewitt were looking at the last rays of daylight, wishing for port. At the stern, Asa Rumsey and Joe Aren- dos were logging the ship. Olin Johnson, Leo Lockwood, and Charley Whipple were on patrol duty for the night. The forecast of the weather for the remainder of the trip was fair and warmer, and the Good Ship Kelly sailed into port with flying colors. 77 ROOM 232 A Dream About 232 Listen! What is that voice? I lift the veil of time and am peering through the mist of trailing years. What do I see? Ethel, standing on the Brink of eternity, bidding a fond adieu to her good-looking brother who is waving back from behind the twin Bushes, Ella and Za. The scene changes. I see a totem pole. Letha Kresge is talking to it with all her might. She spies Marjorie Davenport running at break-neck speed and calls, Tardy as usual. I see a stage. Katherine Curran steps to the footlights. Got your algebra ? she shouts. No answer. The show is ong Dorothy Hoover is in- terlocutor. Ladies and gents! We now present Rachael Fenner, Aliene Waters, the world's largest and skinniest women, also the great Charles- toner, Helen Srnka. Next, is the only boy wonder in skirts, Evelyn Rapa- lee. Last, but not least, is our own Charlie Chaplin in disguise-Eliza- beth Presher. Now, ladies and gents, Inez King will speak to you until Doomsday. Again the mist appears, the curtain falls. In the distance, I see Dor- othy Tutton doing geometry on the Sands of Time, and of all things-Helen Tyler, reciting history to the fair queen of Jacksonville, Winifred Vann. Helen White comes rushing up with this shocking information: I just found Candace Wilson paying up all of Barbara Thompson's Bills! Helen Lounsbery was trying to stop her. Here comes Anna Lane, arm in arm with Mary Leonard, the cele- brated strawberry blond. Anna is singing in a minor strain See how tall I am. Girls! did you see the letter I received ? , cries Myrtle Wright, as she jumps over the head of Christine Cummings, who is seeking protec- tion from the rain by aid of a large burdock leaf. Just because Bertha Crysler is shocked at such antics, she is drawing the mist again before my eyes. The scene passes to a world all red and gold. A sparkling river is flowing through a beautiful valley. On the bank stand Hazel Dewitt and Dorothy Jackson, curling their hair with its magic waters. Sitting at their feet is bas-hful Dorothea English with her Dolly, Duke, in her arms. Close by Esther Hyde is giggling at the funny antics of an angle-worm. On the opposite bank, under a date palm, lie the two Bettys, Forkas and Hopper, studying for dear life, when who should appear but Dorothy King, remark- ing, Oh, girls, I envy you your dates. Farther down the bank, Zetta Kenfield is covering her hair with yellow sand to keep it forever blond. In a little golden boat are Dorothy VanOrder and Marion Townsley playing a Hawaiian melody on their Nukes. They are suddenly startled by the voice of Rhoda Middaugh crying Girls, let me give you a 'Tip.' That is enough, all cried in union, 'We don't want him.' I see-but a sudden fall breaks the somber stillness. The spell is broken. Mrs. Bakkum emerges from behind her desk, rubbing her eyes and looking wistfully around the room. Alas! It was only a dream. 79 ZH ROOM Sing a Song of Two-Twelve Sing a song of Two-Twelve, a room that's always high. Ten and thirty stately youths to please Miss Sheffer's eye. Miss Sheffer in her home room was counting out her boys. Each fellow in his own place was making not a noise. But Joe Abbot loved to dance and, Fairbanks-like, to twirl a lance, Whenever it is time to start, Deacon Manley takes the part, With Edward Judson as an aid, of a Frenchman newly-made. If a maid we need to Hnd, we'll Si-an-y, who is very kind. With Gutenberger we are sure that of the Tattler we'll have more, For that paper he has soldg for such jobs one needs be bold. William Wray would be a lark, as collector, Stew's a shark, He was really very nice, he sold Annuals at half price. To other thoughts we now shall turn, of Harvey Seaburg soon we'll learn, How he and Stewart took the puck, and raised the score by skill and luck. H. E. Trapp's our strong man brave, he's equipped to man a cave. Our basketeers you can rely on, Schwartz and Taylor, Sweedler, Ryan, Smith and Brillhartg but sin have they, to atone for, day by day, And with Hammond who Teeters late, sit calmly waiting for their fate. Robert Conlon is a farmer, and Caveney tills the soil, Cardinal and Corgel, as newsmen daily toil. Farmer, newsboy, others too, Moulthrop, Watros not a few, All alike may take their time, with extensions, in bed, dine. Ha! Ha! Smith, we'll give one laugh, though Richard Roberts should get half. Oh, Graff's a preacher from the mine, to prove he's right, he'd climb a pine. Richard Drake is our own prideg with musicians he doth stride. All the rest are loving boys, some love girls and some love toys. Only one we have is Loveless, even he loves Lovey Loveless. Clark O'Daniel loves loud ties, Leon Bundy loves large pies, Donald Miller loves men small, Alvord Cole loves them tall, Henry Guerlac loves his name, for lack of gears it stays the same. Rocker loves the girls well-dressed, he can always tell the best. Coan, Funderburg, Redfield, White, are shining stars in the darkest night. Of Orlo Maughan there's aught to say, he's simply plain in every way. So sing a song of Two-Twelve, a room that's ever high, Ten and thirty gallant boys, fit to do or die. 81 ROOM 224 224's Alma Mater How dear to our hearts is old Ithaca High School With fond recollections of Room 224, No finer bunch could you find that could beat it, So loyal and true to our teacher each dayg Such faces to greet you as Louise, Ville, and Theda, Virginia and Dort are so charming to meet, There is Etta for bravery and Frances so dainty, And Ruth with her flute may take the front seat. Old Ithaca High School, So famed for its learning, Old Ithaca High School, We all love so well. Kind nature has given the site of our High School Rare beauty in which inspiration is fired, Our faculty all are the best in the nation, High standards for principles which are admired, There is Laura so Winsome, she's a scholar in English, But will have to divide honors with our little Tazu, There is blonde Dorothea, sweet Charlotte, pretty Lina, Tiny Alice, fair Arline and our dear bright-eyed Claire. Old Ithaca High School, So famed for its learning, Old Ithaca High School, We all love so well. Knowledge never was gained without much work and hardship, It is proved by the lives that our great men have lived, So ardently now while success is before us, Do the best that we can while in Ithaca High, We all adore Martha, Estella, and Helen, Marian, Lillian and Alice, musicians are they, We have Sarah and Margaret and Minnie so willing, Vera, Mary and Mildred, so lively and gay. Old Ithaca High School, So famed for its learning, Old Ithaca High School, We all love so well. And when far removed from this loved Ithaca High School, The tear of regret will intrusively swell, If we do not improve every moment before us. And make one great effort to do our work well, Jac is a singer and Dorothy a fiddler, Fair maids Julia, Bernice, Ruth and Cora, we all love a lot There is Ruth with dark tresses, Doris and Esther, And Dot with her nonsense I nearly forgot. Old Ithaca High School, So famed for its learning, Old Ithaca High School, We all love so well. , ss ROOM 223 Home Room Z2 Heaven's Helpers GREAT EXCITEMENT ABOVE CLOUDS All officials and employees except St. Peter -have gone on strike.

We are able to discern dimly, in the distance, massive walls, which are said to be those of the High School. We are told that to pass behind these barriers requires many years of diligent work. Our attention is attracted to a spot distinguished by a Baldfwinj oak, beneath which grows a large patch of moss Col. There, two tradesmen, a Taylor and a Barkfdollerj er, are about to Testlutb a stout piece of cloth by having a trio of expert archers, H. George, A. Rogers, R. Lounsbery, use the material for a target. A bystander, W. La France, abruptly puts an end to the experiment by snatching the cloth and disappearing into the crowd. A large friar, W. Warriner, declares in a loud voice that he will appeal to a Pope to have the culprit condemned. At this juncture, Empress fMissJ Brown, enters the lists with her retinue. Preceded by the Captain of the Guards, G. McGraw, and his four henchmen, A. Niedick, A. Warren, D. Owens, R. Tutton, the pick of the kingdom, she takes her place in the north balcony. We perceive that she motions her famous astrologer, G. Ellis, and his assistant, H. Crispell, to seats on her right, while reclining at the foot of the throne, is the court jester, none other than Tommy Higgins. We next notice the scribe, J. Gainey, who is seated on a small stool busily scribbling on a piece of parch- ment. As the Express wishes refreshment, Fish, a rare delicacy, is served to her. At last the Empress throws down her truncheon as a sign that the games are to begin and immediately the Grand Marshall, C. Weigand, a Power fsj in the vicinity, signals to the trumpeter, P. Boland, who advances and blows his Horn. The gates at either end of the lists are drawn back by the gate-tenders, R. Cornish, P. Watros, and the two champions, clothed in bright armor and mounted on magnificent steeds pace forth, and rush toward each other. As they draw near, they both try to Dodge and as a result are both unhorsed and fall to the ground with such force as to render them both unconscious. At once the squires, M. Shulman and R. Andrews hasten forward and, having raised the Visors of their masters, disclose to us the fact that the brave combatants are in reality, S. Smelzer and R. Morey. Though the three judges, S. Butterworth, R. George, and H. Driscoll debate earnestly, they are unable to decide on the victor. The Queen of Love and Beauty, who in spite of his feminine attire is easily recognized as Harry Dworsky, and his personal attendants, L. Gaydosh and C. Lewis, grieved because they are unable to fall on the neck of the victor, collapse in a dead faint. The Empress arises and leaves, followed by her train. As we remove ourselves from the vicinity, we pass four nobles, M. Potter, L. Kresge, L. Fitzpatrick, and K. Hollister, still arguing over who was really the victor of the day. 87 ROOM 221 The Bookshelf of 221 My Taste for Tarainess-Clementine Sullivan. What I Like About the Country-Helen Brown.

Edna Maughan, The girl from the Wild West, promised to teach Helen Tyler a new way of learning to ride horse-back without getting bow-legged. Billy Mason proved to be a good sport. Marion Booth manages to let us know she is alive by applauding with the other girls, when Dot Perko makes her usual wise crack called, Applesauce 1 A group of girls, containing Vivian Stevison, Blanche Barkee, Clele Slaght, Rose Gombash, and Elizabeth Oldenburg are making a brave effort to keep up with Anna Kristoff, in the Charleston. I don't believe Mildred West's or Myrtle Wheeler's husbands will have much trouble with them, for they are great workers. Helen Drake, Mar- guerite Robinson, and Marion Havens are badly bitten by the bug-of- learningsf' If anyone in 346 wants any help in school work, the girls all say, Ask Lahoma Peppell, she knows I That is one thing to which every- one agrees. Ardath Van DeMark, Marjorie Halbert, and Hazel Entriken are never scolded because of talking loudly. N o one need say our room lacks musical qualities. Just get Alice Jenks at the piano, Minerva Norton and her lil' ol' violin, and have them play an accompaniment while Carmen Reyna sings, When Johnny Comes March- ing Home, and you'll be surprised at the talent. Ola Mae Brewer is never late for school any more because her father gave her a new car. We are beginning to think Ola carries a rabbit's foot around with her. Susie Bush, is still wondering what Ola would do, if she had a blow-out. If anyone doubts that Mary Silke is a born poetess, let that person look in some of the autograph-books that Silkey has signed. Helen Culver, when not play- ing hockey or basketball, can usually be found reading a hair-raising story. Victoria Smith is wondering what kind of a cow it was that put moo in Moose. Never mind. Tory, we like to dance, too. It is very easy to see that Helen Tompkins is going to be a teacher of dramatics. If ever you're lonesome, get Dorothy Martindale to tell you about a most interest- ing village called Varna. Lelia Mitchell and Grace Dickens are very bright, however, they are not the only redheads in the room. We should like to have Peg Woods work at Christiance's so she could serve us our sherbet. Hearing someone say, C'mon Gang, we know, without looking, that it is Peggy Lynch, calling to her non-relative twin, Evelyn Ryerson. All the girls are present except Kitty Mitchell. Here she comes just in time to shut the door! Miss Dyott has been more than a teacher, she has been a real pal to the girls of 346, and we Wish her every kind of success. 91 ROOM 335 Court Room 335 Chief Justice Johannsen called for silence. George Bossack and Elett Brooks, along with Omar Mulks and Richard Wurzel, charged with having had an eraser battle across the desks of Room 335, were marched in by po- licemen Richard McGraw and Grier Bovard. The jury, James Allen, Dan- iel Baker, Foster Bennett, Fred Albright, John Carver, Harold Fulkerson, Leon Gibbs, Warren Greunell, Bill Glanister, George Howland, Clyde Marion, and Roger Knapp were already in their places. The lawyer for the defense, Henry Moore, was getting down his last-minute notes, while the district attorney, Gordon Sloughter, was preparing to counteract him in his efforts. The court secretary, Stephen Sampson, was seated at his desk, ready to take down the proceedings of the trial. The Judge then announced that the prisoners were charged with un- lawful throwing of erasers, thereby breaking the law: Erasers shall not be thrown at any time or under any circumstances. He called on the counsel for the defense, Henry Moore, who claimed that the law was so newly made and such a hard one to remember that the prisoners had prob- ably forgotten and violated it unconsciously. The district attorney then summoned his first witness, Ernest Kimble. He declared he had been hit on the head with one of the missiles. The sec- ond witness, Robert Wilken, declared that an inkwell had been struck with an eraser and its contents spilled upon an English paper. The next to tes- tify were Richard Warren and Edward Wysocka, each of whom presented a pair of glasses badly broken. Kendal White and Myron VanEtten next took the stand, bringing well-blackened eyes, and testified that erasers from the hands of Elett Brooks and George Bossack had done the damage. The prisoners were then asked if they had anything to say for them- selves. Omar Mulks declared that George Bossack hit him with an eraser, and he had only returned the fire. Richard Wurzel claimed he had thc same experience with Elett Brooks. George Bossack had thrown just for fun and Elett Brooks, for the same reason. After fifteen minutes of conference, the jury returned with a verdict of not guilty for Omar Mulks and Richard Wurzel and guilty for Elett Brooks and George Bossack.

It was a motley crowd of youngsters who attended the school, and very few would have come at all if their parents had not com- pelled them to do so. On this particular day, the students were unusually mischievous, and the old teacher, Mr. Silefies, was very angry at everything in general. Arith- metic came first on the day's program. They all took out their books, and John Gregory, who was always doing something wrong, dropped his, mak- ing a great noise. Richard Jordan was called upon to explain an example, but succumbed to stage fright. Lawrence Daniels was next, and he was almost through explaining when William George, who sat behind him, reached over and stuck a pin in his let At last, to the relief of all, the class was ended and Schuyler Ward. William Sullivan, Paul VanDeman, Kenneth Ayres, Edward Farling, and Robert Hasenjager, immediately began throwing paper wads at Manning Wooley, Carl Wilsey, Lawrence Williams, George Bush, and Archie Cor- nelius. During rece-ss, Harry Chipman, Lawrence Culligan, Tim Nolan, Harry Frazer, and Frank Scales decided to play a trick on Mr. Silefies. They tied a fish-line to his chair and ran it back to Harry Chipman's desk. When Mr. Silefies came in, the chair was jerked from under 'him and he seated him- self on the fioor-not very gently. He was so angry that when George Decker, Lawrence Bell, Axtell Smith and Evan Sheldon gave poor recita- tions, they were forced to stay after school! The first class in the afternoon was spelling. Wilson Ross, Bernard Rose, Leigh Potter, Robert Pearson, Richard Hulbert and Howard Parish could not spell carol, Louis King and Anthony Leoney were the moni- tors of the school, and as they were bringing in a bucketful of coal, Charles Baker stuck out his foot and tripped them, causing them to fall. The coal was all scattered generously about. During the afternoon recess, Edward Maloney and William Hutching had a fight over who was the captain of the football team. Mr. Silefies finally settled the dispute and a football game was begun during which Morris Shulman got a bloody nose and had to be taken out. Ab George and Carlos Furman had each made a touchdown for their respective teams when the bell rang. School ended soon after and on the way out, Harold Fisher deftly tripped Leland Hall, who went sprawling down the steps. Everyone went joyfully homeward. 97 34 ROOM 3 The Prophecies of 334 Miss Rodee, having taught school for a number of years, has gained a power closely allied with seeing out of the back of her head, that of prophesying the future. She very kindly gave me the data on the future lives of the girls in 334. Margaret Baker will become a millionairess by selling hot dogs to hungry high school students. Emma Van DeBogart will change her name to Bourchair and occupy the exalted position of a fashionable French hair- dresser. Jane Boynton is the future dancing teacher of Harvard Univer- sity.

I gathered from their conversation that they were from Home Room 333. Oh! I'm so glad exams are over, said Helen Hutchinson. Now we are free to do as we please. Yes, exclaimed Frances Howley, and I really have passed all my exams! Congratulations, I didn't think you would -this from Bessie, the star pupil of the class, I am glad you did, though! Never mind, Frances, put in Marion Seery. Bessie always likes to tease you about your work, you should know her by this time! Just then, Gladys Whatman, Marie Nelson and Alice Decker came run- ning across the park. Well, hello, Beans ! called Kathleen Malawa. Hello, what's going on ? asked one of the new arrivals. Just talking over the events of the year, Edith replied. I really liked our home room this year, said Alice Rice, the girls were a lot of fun. Yes, do you remem- ber our Christmas party? We had such a good time, from Laura Bennett, a great lover of parties. Yes, I especially enjoyed the pickles and olives, said Beatrice Shaff. Winnie Johns and I stuffed ourselves so full, that when we got home, our mothers were suspicious, for we could not eat any supper. For my part I enjoyed the Hallowe'en party best, put in Mabel Irvay. Mabel had won most of the prizes, including the dancing prize. Oh, said Mary Freese, it was a pity I wasn't there. You girls have been talk- ing about that party for so long, that you make me wish I had come to school a term earlier. It's too bad that you, Helen Nelson, and Mabel Chaflin weren't with us the first term. You missed a lot of fun, remarked Frances Batterson, a very active member of the class. I wonder where Hilah Meaker, Ida Roe, and Ida Hyers have been for the past week? inquired Margaret Driscoll, in her quiet voice. They have probably started on their summer holiday already, said Elizabeth Blauvelt. They always leave us as soon as the holidays have started and rush off for their summer vaca- tions. Aren't you sorry you haven't gone yet yourself ? No, Graciaj' put in Agnes Miles, I am sure Betty would much rather stay here with Ruth Jenkins, Isabelle and Frances Burns. By the way, what are you girls going to do this afternoon ? , asked Harriet McNinch. Ruth Hutchison and I want to go swimming. Let's ask Edith and Mildred Johannson to come along, and We'll go to the creek, suggested Hazel Comfort. That'S a glorious idea for a hot day, said Olga Rita, the future great violinist. So here'the party sauntered of, and here my story will have to end. 103 ROOM 321 Room 321 at 3z3O One day at 3 130, I happened to walk into 321, when Miss Potter was out in the hall. I found George Brown tearing hot-foot up and down the aisles, with Jerry Stanton following after at a great rate. Carol Broich was sitting in his seat, looking ready to bite somebody's head off, because he was eating, fourth period. Harry Crance had just dropped a handful of marbles on the floor, and Marshall Drake was helping him pick them up. Olaf Brauner was drawing a comic picture on the board, while his brother, Arnliot, our ladies' man, was playing with a watch chain full of rings and other trinkets. Glen Bullock, the towering giant of the room, was doing nothing, in an insignificant manner. Will Hall, the geometry shark, was seen struggling with a triangle. Paul Herson was discussing something heatedly, with Russel Herrick, while Allen Hill and Walter Baker were in a rush to get over to the J ournal-N ews Oiiice. Robert Batterson, drug-store cowboy, was looking around the room. Horace Jones and Kenneth Wilson, our musical members, were talking about the band rehearsal. Lawrence Byrne was counting vast sums of money, while James Van Natta, our handsome man, was waiting patiently for a chance to get out into the halls to talk to some of his girl friends. George Driscoll, our future Phi Betej' was busily studying amidst all the turmoil, and Samuel Stub was smiling at everyone in general. Carl Messenger had obtained a science magazine, from which he was getting an Oral English topic. Warren Lob- dell seemed to be busy gnawing a large piece of candy, which seemed to be his chief occupation in life. Kenneth Knowles and Bob Roskelly were talk- ing with Dick Shevalier. Robert Wells was just sitting there looking around, occasionally cracking a joke, at which Paul Smith laughed with great glee. Edward Howser, the boy with the patent leather hair, was ad- miring the other boys, with a Cheshire-cat grin on his face. Karl Wescott was almost hidden, except for the bright red hair, which, with that of his brother George, seemed to keep that section of the room well heated. Uncle Clifford Payne was carefully recoifing his glistening locks. Rodney Knapp wore his usual peeved expression, and was busily searching for a mislaid paper. Robert Barnard was discussing a math problem with Lavere Brown. Louis Steve tossed one of Miss Potter's famous pebbles and hit Donald Willsey square on the top of the head. George Miller and Francis Shepard were conversing together in a low tonef IJ. David Durand was asleep and Lloyd Silsbee was trying in vain to waken him. Just then, the 3 135 bell rang and, since everyone else departed, I did too. X 105 X 'QD M0 The Horror-Scope of 330 Fannie Aolainus--Fannie means free.

I entered the magnificent station, and saw a sign on an oiiice door, Mr. S. Asai, President, O. Brooks, Head Janitor. On Buialo Street, I was surprised to find a concrete bridge over the Inlet and, upon investigation, I found that it was constructed by the Redding SL McCarthy Engineering Company, in the year 1945. In the business sec- tion, I noticed these signs, Gaston 8x Clapp, Undertakersj' English 8t Ni- vison, General Hardware, and a large structure with a brilliant sign, John J. Bishop, Conservatory of Music. I met my old friend, Willy Hornbrook, and, inquiring for some of my former prison-mates at Ithaca High, I learned that Wiedmyer and Court- right had opened a large chewing gum factory, and Hilker, Boesche, Unger, Marshall and Murphy, were in China, teaching the Chinese the Charleston. I attended a concert at Willard Straight Hall that evening, given by Jordon and Joe Whetzel, now singers with the Metropolitan Opera Com- pany. I then went into a very fine restaurant, and whom should I meet but Glenn Francis, an ensign in the Navy. He told me that Jimmy McLaughlin was a famous pugilist under the guidance of Jim Oliver. The next day, at the Hale-Farnell baseball game, Tommy Donohue was coaching the Hale team, and Georgia, the noted athlete, the Farnell tossers. Professor Rorapaugh was a professor in economics at Farnell, and Roger Bollard was the greatest billiard player this side of Peruville. I was invited to dine with Fred Garret, who had made a half a million in a gold rush. CIt is said that he made another half, matching penniesj Among the guests were Judge Patterson, Lieutenant Reed, George Foote, Leon McCurdy, George Hopkins, and Art Gegg. In the judge's stand at the races, I recognized Don McCray who, I learned, was judge of the Circuit Races for the State of New York. An ad- vertisement on the race program read as follows: MufHers for that new rainbow tie, sold by Pai and Kerr clothing store. An advertisement by the Dayharsch Company gave their many successful jobs quite a reputa- tion. Among them was the placing of thermometers in Miss Barton's new home. She has since become the Governor of New York State. 109 3M ROOM Famous People of 308 Name Miss Neish Mary Locieero Grace LaBarre Ruth Ganoung Teressa, Collins Ada Beach Louise Robertson Helen Rinker Ethel Clarke Dorothy Waite Gertrude Eaton Margaret Morrison Eva Brown Dorothy Wright Mary Ellen Cumberland Amelia Brolc Helen Donovan Esther Mandeville Catherine Wafer Lois Fowler Ethel Laycock Bertha Lotz Marian Wardmoier Margaret Granville Helen Schilling Marian English Helen Wilcox Marian Pierce Virginia Funderburg Carline Seacord Jean Miller Nettie Schilling Olive Southby Marlea Van Buskirk Portia Hopper Pet Words Stop talking Oh Grace Say I know He did?

The Annual Congress Banquet, held at Freeville, N. Y., was a most enjoyable affair. At the Open Session, the bill discussed was resolved: That the United States govern- ment should own and operate the coal mines of the country. The judges decided in favor of the negative side, upheld by Senators Love, H. McDonald, and Representative Maughan. The aliirmative side was taken by Senators R. McDonald, Sullivan, and Representative Shoemaker. Representative Maughan, Senators Love and H. McDonald were selected as best, and took part in the Legislative-Congress Debate.

Altogether, the assembly had many fine de- baters who helped to make the discussions of the best type. The annual Open Session was held on March 18 in the Assembly Hall. The question for debate was Resolved: That unpaid convict labor is slavery and should be abolished. The afiirmative side was upheld by Representa- tive L. Van Dyke, Senator Udall and Representative Jenkins, while Sena- tor Urband and Representatives Horn and Lueder supported the negative side. The judges decided in favor of the negative side and chose the best speakers in the following order: Eloise Lueder, Catherine Udall, and Selma Urband. These three speakers represented the Assembly in the debate with Congress. The crowning event of the season was the annual banquet which joy- ously closed a most successful year.

Our meetings are held the first and third Wednesday of each month in one of which we sew, and in the other we cook. A banquet was held the 12th of March, in honor of the Alumnae, in the sewing room.

Every Monday night, one has only to stop, look, and listenf' to note the strains of music coming from Foster Hall, where the Orchestra diligently works for some future presentation of its art. There are twenty-seven members of this group and their abili- ties are well known. It has become an annual event for the Orchestra to play at the Thanks- giving Concert and the Spring Plays, and its assistance has been much appreciated. On New Year's Eve, certain members of the Orchestra gave a charming program at the Community House, and later, during April, an entertainment was given at the Sunday Services of both the men's and women's prisons at Auburn. The feats of this organization are too nu- merous to mention, but on one thing they must be complimented, their ever faithful attendance in preparing the accompaniment of the cantata The Wreck of the Hesperusf' given in the spring. It is due to the able conducting of Mr. Jebo, that this organization has attained such achievements. ..

Mr. W. K. Webb, an experienced manager, was appointed head coach of athletics, and seven letter men back from last year's strong gridiron machine proved an added advantage. The team made a good beginning of their heavy schedule on October 3, with a victory over the stubborn George Junior Republic, 23-6. On the following Saturday, the Ithacans lost to the championship Cortland outfit by the heart-breaking score of 3 to 0. A week later, the local team attained its form and severely trounced the Cook Academy eleven at Montour Falls, 16-6. On October 24, the Red and Gold gridders won a notable victory over the strong Syracuse North machine, 7-63 a wonderful game played in a sea of mud before a large crowd of eager football fans. Then fol- lowed the I. S. P. E. tilt at Ithaca, October 31, which resulted in a victory for the High School men, at 2-0. They went down to defeat November 7 against Geneva, and again the following week against Corning Free Acad- emy, but on November 21, trounced the speedy East Syracuse aggregation, 7-6. In the traditional Thanksgiving tilt with Elmira, they lost to one of the strongest teams in years at Elmira, by the score of 32 to 0. The following men received the first letter: T. Bovard tcaptainh, Love Cmanagerj, Spencer, Cobb, Marshall, Morey, Brillhart, Hurlbutl, Seeley, S. Abbott, Guthrie, Ingersoll, Stewart, and Hagin. The secondary insignia was awarded to: J.

At Coach Webb's call for candidates, over one hundred men responded, the largest single squad ever to report for a Red and Gold team. Among the veterans who returned were Seely, Bo- vard, Couch and Welch, while Batterson was appointed manager and ar- ranged a very fine schedule. The first league contest, December 11, was at Norwich, and proved a defeat for Ithaca, 17-8. In the first home game, the local five staged a fast comeback and routed the Elmira quintet in one of the speediest frays seen on the Ithaca court in years. Although the High School five was lead- ing at the end of the first period, it lost to the powerful U-E team, January 8, at 23 to 14. On January 15, the Ithacans added a second league victory to their season's record by taking a close game from Owego, 17-15, on the Owego court. The next game, Elmira Heights, resulted in another victory for the locals. They lost the next three games, Cortland, 35-16, Bingham- ton, 23-13, and Norwich, 28-13. However, they downed the heavy and experienced U-E five in a return game on February 19, 26-21. A week later, the Ithacans went down before the speedy Elmira Heights outfit by a score of 19-18. On March 5, they lost to Cortland. They were defeated by the I. S. P. E. five on the following Tuesday, and, in the final league game of the schedule, lost to the veteran Binghamton combination on March 12, 27-8. On March 20, the Alumni routed the High School five in a peppy fray, by the deciding score of 34-28. The final contest of the season was a return game with the I. S. P. E. team, resulting in a victory for them. The following men received their first letter: Seeley Ccaptainl, Bat- terson Cmanagerj, Ingersoll, Chipman, Bovard, Welch, Brillhart, Couch, and George.

The first game on the schedule, played at Corning, December 31, re- sulted in a tie score. At this time, Gladys Seaburg, who formerly had played forward, won a place as side center, which she kept for the rest of the season, and Dorothy Briggs became Elsie Smith's regular running mate. The next week at practice, the center, Veronica Malone, injured an ankle, incapacitating her for playing. Barbara Wyckoff took her place and filled the position for the rest of the winter. There was not another game until January 8, when the Ithaca team defeated Waverly, 35-16. The following week, they outplayed George Junior, 45-9. On January 23, High School met its first defeat in a close contest with Binghamton. The next game was at Owego, where a victory was gained by two points. Two idle weeks followed, owing to the severe weather that made trips impos- sible. Then Owego visited Ithaca on February 12, winning by an 11-9 score. The next scheduled game was with Corning on our own court. The two-division rules played by Corning were unfamiliar to our girls, and they met their third defeat, 18-13. The strong Binghamton team was the next opponent, defeating the locals, 26-17. The High School played the Alumnae on March 19. The opposing team was made up of many former stars. among them E. Emmons, F. Rice, F. Sullivan, M. Reese, I. Tata- sciore, and F. Andrews. The following players received first insignias: H. Steves Ccaptainl, E. Smith, E. Fisher, D. Briggs, H. Rice, G. Seaburg, B.

Although the team as a whole was not up to the standards of last year, the three meets were hotly contested. The initial meet of the season resulted in a victory for Binghamton 35-23, Ithaca taking three firsts, two seconds, a third, and losing the relay by a matter of inches. The next meet was a Triangular with Binghamton and Elmira, in which the locals were again second to Binghamton but outclassed Elmira, even without the fast service of Don Cornelius. The score was Bing- hamton-53, Ithaca-26, and Elmira-12, Ithaca taking one first, three seconds, three thirds, two fourths, and second in the relay. The mermen took third in the sectional at Cortland, again, defeated by the well-balanced Binghamton team and being nosed out for second place by Utica. The re- sults were Binghamton-42, Utica-17, Ithaca-16, Cortland-2. Henry George competed in the State Meet at Buffalo in the 100-yard breast stroke, having outclassed all opponents in the Sectionals. Don Cornelius was elected captain for the next season, and Hen', Guerlac was made manager. The following water-dogs will receive their first letter: Seely Ccap- tainj, Cornelius, George, and Llop.

Large crowds may be easily handled with the excellent set of bleachers which the Board of Education purchased last year. The club house, with its hot and cold showers, visit- ing teams' quarters, etc., provides excellent conditions for home athletics. If the squad becomes too large for present facilities, the Board has prom- ised to build additional diamonds and add an up-to-date backstop. Forty men answered the call for candidates, in April, eight of them, veterans from last year's nine. From this number an excellent team was picked, which was managed by J. Rumball, and his assistants, A. Bush and M. Blostein. SCHEDULE April 24 Cortland at Ithaca. May 1 Horseheads at Ithaca. May 8 Corning F. A. at Corning May I5 Open. May 22 Elmira F. A. at Elmira.

The coach was Mr. Gilkey, a former pupil of Jack Moakley, the Cornell mentor. Although Gregorie, last year's star, Porter, his running mate, and Tutton were lost by graduation, Captain Art Martin and T. Scofield, first letter men of last season's outfit, formed a strong nucleus for this year's team. The me-n made their first appearance in a dual meet with the traditional rival, Cortland, on the Blue and White's course. This meet was won by the Red and Gold runners coming out on the short side of a 22-35 score. Captain Martin captured first place from a strong field of entrants. Sco- field arrived third, while C. Yeyna, H. McDonald, and Jack Gregorie cap- tured fifth, sixth, and seventh places, respectively, thus completing Ithacais team score. In the Sectional Meet, held at Cortland, the local harriers barely lost first place to Cortland Central. As a result of this meet, Martin, Scofield, and Yeyna represented the High School in the state-wide run at Syracuse, November 7. Martin came in eighteenth position, with Scofield and Yeyna placing thirty-fourth and fifty-second, respectively. The final race of the season was held November 14, at Cornell, with a dual meet be- tween the Freshmen and the High School men. Martin of Ithaca cap- tured third place and Scofield trailed Sharpe of Cornell for fifth position. All in all, the harriers had an excellent season, decisively defeating the Cortland cross-country team at Cortland, placing second at the Sectional Meet at Cornell, qualifying three men for the State Finals at Syracuse, and losing a hard battle to the strong Cornell Freshman team. The following runners earned the first letter: A. Martin fcaptainj, T. Scofield, C. Yeyna, J. Gainey, H. Jones, J. Gregorie, and H. McDonald. Following are the barriers who received the second insignia: W. Stock- ing, P. VanDeman, J. Herson, R. Hasenjager, and J.

At the call for candidates, late in December, a goodly number reported for practice. Among these were several experienced men from last year's team, including C. Treman and D. McPherson, wingmen, H. Seaburg, center, and R. Love, goal guard. D. McPherson was elected captain and D. Beattie be- came manager. At the beginning of the season, Nick Bawlf, of Cornell, kindly gave up some of his time to drill the men in the fundamentals of the sport. Reg- ular practise was held during January on the Cornell rink. On February 13, Ithaca played the Skaneateles team, which had not been defeated or tied by a high school sextet for three years. In the first period, Skaneateles scored the initial tally of the fray, in a mix-up scrimmage near the goal. Toward the end of the second period, Treman, left wing, eluded the de- fense men and neatly planted the tying counter in the net. During the third period, both teams tried many long shots in vain, and the battle ended a tie, 1-1. The following Saturday, the Red and Gold sextet decisively de- feated the Cornell Freshman team on the Cornell rink, by the overwhelming score of 6 to 1. The last contest, on February 22, a return game with Skan- eateles at Ithaca, resulted in another hard-fought tie, 1-1. As a result of the series with Skaneateles, Ithaca rates on a par with the up-state cham- pionship claimants.
