Oskie wah-wah, Whiskey wee-wee, Holy Mackalie. What's the matter With Lakewood High Whee-ee, Lakewood! ust as the clothing styles have changed, so has athletics. Uncoached and retarded by a smallpox epidemic, the first football team played without helmets, shoulder pads, or cleats. No goal posts were used, for victory was claimed when one team succeeded in landing the ball behind the opponents' line of defense. In 1924 our Golden Tornadoes reached the peak by Winning every game. Girls athletics must not be overlooked for in spite of their black knee bloomers and lisle stockings, they performed remarkably Well in both basketball and volley ball. Page 15

Wilson school lasted exactly fifteen years, for in 1917 plans were studied for a high school to accommodate two thousand students. Unfortunately a flu epidemic and a shortage of labor delayed the opening until October 7, 1918. Zero hours were not issued in those days when the punishment for skipping was three hours kitchen police or two days digging in the garden. The dress of the satisfactory girl, as regulated by the Girls Student Coun- cil, consisted of a middy and skirt of modest length and fullness, while the model boy wore a black Windsor tie and a high collar.

We Draw from Yesterday . . Page 16 DAY. . . For a Better Tomorrow We have come a long way from the straight- laced past to the giddy present. Just as the times have changed, so have our ideas. Twenty years ago the ringing of the bell at the close of classes sent the students home. Today the closing bell is merely a sign that it is time for extra-curricular clubs to begin. Teachers no longer employ the hickory stick method, but now permit informal dis- cussions led by a student chairman. Girls sports called carnal in grandmothers day are very popular now. In the Present sec- tion we show the school as it is today: the clubs as an outgrowth of the classroom activ- ity, and the differences between yesterday and today.
