'■■'6T i-. I A Rn | ojt t s4. N 'i Eighth Grade Sing we a song of the Eighth grade, Just eighteen members strong, Not very large in numbers But a merry happy throng. There's Oneta Pence’s lovely voice, Some day she’ll be a star And we know that many people Will icome to hear her from afar. Miss Thetis Deal in basket ball Is very hard to beat, And for us all to watch her play It is surely a treat. David is our ball fan He's fond of candy, gum and cake, And he said, “he'd be quite happy If he had arms that wouldn’t break.” Never once since to school she started Has Jeannette missed a single day How many in the country Can beat that record, we pray? Ralph is the boy Who chopped off his finger, And now we do hope All the others will linger. Then there is Floyd A farmer’s fair son, Who is quite overjoyed When his English is done. Eileen is tall And fond of jokes, But Arithmetic lessons Make her provoked. Marvin’s hair curls And he’s exceedingly fair Our parties aren’t complete Unless Marvin is there. H stands for Harold and When he gets in a rage He many times wishes The girls were all in a cage. Here’s a word about Ivan, He’s a tinner by trade, You may go to his store To have furnaces made. Thelma’s our short girl, And our very best scribe, Her fame will be known By all far and wide. Millard’s from Millerstown, Best artist of ours, He can make many pictures In a very few hours. Marcella is bashful And very sly, But maybe she’ll marry In the sweet bye and bye. (Continued on page 85) 32

 P A Rd T p I M COACH WINTERS In his two years as director of athletics and coach at St. Paris high school, William Winters has made an enviable record of consistent success. He has pro- duced two championship basket ball teams and one winning track team. A man of higty character and recognized ability, Coach Win- ters has by his sincerity and loy- alty raised high the name of St. Paris, in the athletic world and earned for himself the admira- tion and support of all St. Paris students, alumni and friends. Mr Winters Although being given a lot of material upon his coming to this high school, no little credit should be given Mr. Winters for his success as head coach of our high school. His teams of the past two years are probably as successful or even more so than any team in the history of the high school. We, the Seniors, class of 1929, wish to extend our thanks to him for his untiring efforts and interest in all athletic events. St. Paris 17--Westville 11 The opener at Westville on Thanksgiving night was played as could be expected in a rather unsystemiz- ed manner, the playirg space not being large enough to wavrent the players freedom to move around with any degree of safety whatsoever, although the Yellow and Black showed signs of becoming a very fast and aggressive team. As the season went on this proved to be a realty. CHARLES APPLE Red was honored with the cap- taincy of the members of the squad and bids fair to become one of the few centers to make all county and district center. Rel is a Junior. ROGER PROCTER Procter was a consistent and hard passing guard during the season. To him goes the re- ward of all county guard. Proc- ter is a Senior. St. Paris 33—Lena Conover 11 On the evening of December 7, Lena-Conover boys and girls played hosts to our noble athletes on their own floor. Quite a crowd of St. Paris rooters were on hand to witness the event where the squad crippled by the flu epidemic, admininstered a sound beating, and our boys returned home with the long end of a tripled count, 33-11. St. Paris 32-Springfield High School Reserves 10 Expecting a stiff fight, our boys were much sur- prised to find things easy sledding as they pounded out another victory this time by a 32-10 score. This game served as a very valuable practice for our squad not being used to the freedom in arching their shots. 34
