Last year Cupid removed from our ranks two teachers, Miss Grace Reynolds and Miss Naomi Sheppe, whose places were taken by Miss Lucile Bridgman and Mrs. H. C. McCoy. Mr. J. N. G. Linley replaced Mr. Leroy Hildrup as a history teacher. Our enrollment for 1933-1934 was about 850. This increase has placed us in Class A, which includes all schools in Virginia with an enrollment of 750 or more. This means that we shall have to compete next year with Class A schools for honors, both literary and athletic. A number of changes have been made in the building, all of which we are glad to term improvements. Two years ago adequate lunch- room facilities, an enlarged modern library, new lighting fixtures, a new stage and dressing rooms for the auditorium were added to the equipment at Lane High. This year C. W. A. funds made possible some external beautifications. Under the direction of Dr. Johnson, a new sidewalk was laid ; new steps were erected ; and a new retaining wall was built. The School Board also gave us new shrubbery, which was placed in front of the building. Assemblies in Lane High School have become one of the major extra-curricular activities. Pupils assume the chief responsibility for the assembly programs, preparing and performing them under the sponsorship of a teacher. A schedule of assemblies prepared under the direction of the principal early in the session provides for approxi- mately two assemblies each month. In order to secure the widest possible participation, no pupil is expected to take part in more than two assemblies each term. As the result of careful planning and friendly rivalry, the productions are usually entertaining and of a high standard. Thirteen with the destiny of the world on their shoulders. May this feeling be tempered with wisdom and good judgment so that they may truly influence the world. SENIORS The End of the Trail Eleanor Hall, ’34 When we approach the end of a lovely trail, The leaves of memory, rustling into years, The warmth of a moment, bringing without fail Faint breezes, mingled with a moment’s tears At meeting changes Time and Chance provide, Will sweep aside the spider’s dusty web Of happy days and hours silver-lined In life’s long tide of ceaseless flow and ebb. Recalling sacred memories to the mind That bear with them unfaltering hope and strength, We come at length to where the trails divide, And stooping night caresses day at length, The future blending with the past, heart to heart, As we, the Pilgrims of this plan, depart.

Through his desire to give his best always, he has won the r espect of his fellow students and members of the fac- ulty. BERTHA VIOLA HAGGARD Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34. Some say that red hair and a hot temper are synonymous, hut Bertha’s gentle dispo- sition contradicts this statement.

JOYCE HAWKINS Glee Club, ’32-’34; Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34. Our prettiest blonde is Joyce — the kind that everyone prefers.

COLE Junior Hi-Y, 30-’31; Football Squad, ’31 -’32; Football Team and Letter, ’33-’34; “C” Club, ’33- ’34.

ELLEN HURT COLEMAN Hi-Y, ’33-’34; Hayes Literary Society, ’33-’34; Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34; Chain Typist, ’33-’34.

JOHNNY FINKS CATTERTON One of our best students, Finks believes that “Wisdom is power.” 19 3 4 Twenty RUBY HAWKINS That worried air covers a real desire to please, an earnest effort to live up to what folks expect of her. MARGUERITE HOUCHENS The mildest manner, the sweetest smile, make Marguerite well worth knowing. DELBERT JETER Football, ’31-’34; “C” Club, ’3 1- ' 34. I)l ' lbert could combine brains with brawn, hut does he? WILLIAM B. JONES Hi-Y, ’33-’34; Student Council, ’33-’34; Vice- President Sophomore Class. Says Billy, “Why should I try to gain knowledge, when it only gives me a head- ache ?” MARGARET MELCENNA EASE We often wonder whether “Margy” is attending the Charlottesville School for Boys or Lane High. ALICE LEE KEEL Alice Lee ' s outstanding feature — her eyes — will not be easy to forget. 9k J? t CO JU q£jlaa • u o Twenty-five I JEAN ELIZABETH KENNON Players’ Club, ’32-’34; (llec Club, ’31 -’34; Liter- ary Editor, Chain and Bumble Bee, ’33-’34; Stu- dent Council, ’32-’33. Attractiveness, sophistication, and intelli- gence are as a rule hard to find together, but in Jean we have all. JEAN JOSSELYN KLISE The pretty curls and bewitching smile of Jean have touched many a masculine heart. ADELE LOUISE LANDAU Metcalf Literary Society, ’32-’34. If you can find a crack in that barricade of admiring gentlemen, you may be sure that what you see is the very latest thing in dress. RAYMOND P. LANG Football, ’32-’34; “C” Club, ’32-’34; Secretary “C” Club, ’32-’33. Beware of the girls, Ray!

Styles change over-night, but somehow or other Charlotte manages to keep up with them. RICHARD ASHBY McMULLEN Ashby is inclined to be laconic, but that is a desirable trait. ANNIE MARION Annie, one of our most obliging class- mates, claims the honor of being one of our most attractive members. JOHN KINCAID MARKELL Football, ’32 -’3 4.

Moore believes that a well-digger is the only person who can succeed by starting at the top and working toward the bottom. MAC MONROE MOYER, JR. Intramural Baseball, ’3 1 -’32. Dependability is not a showy virtue, but how it does stand up under the stress of everyday life! Twenty-eight JAMES LEONIDAS MUNDY A most practical-minded and argumenta- tive Senior is James, but when he argues it is usually witli precision. ELIZABETH ASHTON NALLEY Basketball, ’32-’34; Hi-Y, ’31-’34; Metcalf Liter- ary Society, ’ 3 1 - ’ 3 4 ; Secretary Hi-Y, ‘33-’34; De- bating Team, ’34; Organization Editor Bumble Bee and Chain, ’33-’34; Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34.

Ruth’s clever and amiable, and proves that even sisters may be friends. MARY GREGG REA Boosters’ Club, Treasurer, ’33-’34. She is known for her assidious support of the boys’ basketball team — a secret pas- sion, Mary? HELEN ERMA RICKS Founder, Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34. “Spirits” were prohibited in Virginia un- til March, but Helen has had in her pos- session the spirit of Lane since September.

Vivacious and genial, our outstanding blonde has won the hearts of many. CYNTHIA AUGUSTA SMITH lioosters’ Club, ’33-’34.

SMITH Girls’ Hi-Y, ’31-’34; Midway Student Reporter, ’33-’34; Boosters’ Club, ’33-’34. Her ready smile is a better passport than fluent wisecracks. SANDY SMITH Junior Football, ’32-’34.

Through his eminent and meritorious work, he has inscribed his name among our distinguished football players. He can also cover a dance floor with the gracefulness of a Ted Shawn. HENRY GARTH WHEELER Football, ’33-’34; Baseball, ’31-’32. Dark Garth with his deep voice is a mys- tery to most of us. What docs he think about ?

The languages, the sciences, the arts — in all these he is well read. Thirty-five Class History ’34 AV1NG come to the harvest season of our high school life, we find great pleasure in turning back the leaves of time to glimpse once more those events which have made our development so pleasant and fruitful. We have succeeded in gathering the largest crop, and one of the best, ever reaped in this school. We sincerely hope that the classes to follow will strive to out-do To the caretakers of this educational orchard we must have seemed a weak and unpromising lot. Hut as we constituted the only material available, they set about to make of us the best specimen possible. Having been made more at home by the H-Y mixer and Freshmen assembly, we found ourselves ready to organize. From our one hundred and ninety members we selected the following leaders : president, Charles Sours; vice-president, Joe Massey; secretary, Mary Elizabeth Minor; treasurer, John T. Calhoun ; and sponsor, Miss Fleet. Thus organized, we began to take shape under the many new conditions in high school life. Although no outstanding achievement marked this first year, some members of the class dis- tinguished themselves with high grades. By the time we could call ourselves Sophomores, careful pruning had re- duced our numbers to one hundred and fifty-four. Promptly we organized and placed ourselves under the leadership of Bill Arundale, president, ably assisted by Billy Jones, Stella Critzer, and Neville Wood, with Mrs. McCue to guide us. Having thrown off some of our timidity, we took more interest in all school activi- ties. We were proud to have representatives on our winning football team, the staff of our school paper, and in the many other organizations. Having progressed very favorably under our Sophomore president, we re- elected him to lead us through another year. With him we placed Leo Smith, vice- president; Neville Wood, secretary; Julian Souder, treasurer; and Mr. Walker, sponsor. Thus organized, in our third year, we began to show promise of a good season. We had now become very prominent in our orchard and drew more attention. A majority of the members of our undefeated football team were Juniors which, of course, made us very proud. We were represented not only on the football team, but in all outside activities, showing unusual talent in assembly programs and other school performances. All of this prepared us for the respon- sibilities that would befall us next year as Seniors. Everyone enjoyed the Junior- Senior “prom,” and some of the class members were fortunate enough to go with the Seniors on their Washington trip. We were very much interested in watching the parting Seniors, for we knew our class would compose the next shipment from this fast growing orchard. T hirty-six THE CHAIN Now we have become full grown fruit and are ready for market. In the fall, as soon as school was under way, we elected officers, and made out our Senior program, which was the most elaborate ever undertaken at the school. All of us enjoyed the unusually successful football season and were sorry to see it come to an end. Our first Senior dance, which was attended by a large crowd, was suc- cessful both socially and financially. The Christmas season was soon upon us, and school memories faded while everyone enjoyed gay holiday festivities, which, like all pleasures, ended too soon for our approval. The faculty play, which we were proud to sponsor, gave the public a real money’s worth. After mid-year examina- tions we held our second Senior dance, at which everyone had a marvelous time gliding to the melodies played by the Royal Virginians. Having been considerably successful financially with our dances, we prepared for the annual Washington trip, which was one of the memorable events of the year. A contingent of sixty students, Seniors and future Seniors, climbed the steps of the Nation’s Capitol to listen to Congress legislate, visited many of the new governmental structures to see many of the architectural benefits derived from the Federal Public Works program, motored through the venerable parts of the city to satisfy aesthetic tastes, and in all, made this trip one of the most thoroughly enjoyed activities of the year. In the spring we furnished most of the cast for the Players’ Club play, selected Senior rings — which, incidentally, were specially designed and cast for us — concurred on the proper form for our commencement invitations, and in-the- meanwhile did as little studying as possible to get by. The Senior play afforded entertainment for a large audience and was a splendid demonstration of the ex- perience and instruction received by the members of the cast during their years at Lane. Having passed through the ripening stage we were allowed to remain long- enough to enjoy the most convivial festivities of the year. The class banquet, where many wise words, jokes, and interesting conversations were held, was a great success. The Senior “prom” proved one of the best dances of the year, for with final examinations over, the students felt free to glide gracefully over the dance floor to many new melodies. Finals culminated with the presentation of diplomas by Dr. J. G. Johnson, Superintendent of Schools. Thus we emerge a finished crop, regretful to leave the orchard which has so long been our home, but ready for the purposes for which we were grown. 9 3 4 WEATHER BAD The Senior Class Prophecy By TEE BLANKINSHIP jKftttmj) S tubntt BUSINESS WORSE Vol. LXIII LANE HIGH SCHOOL, CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA., TUESDAY, MAY IS, 1944 No. 9 NEW JAMES G. JOHNSON SCHOOL OPENED ROGER PUGH, NOTED N. Y. POLITICIAN, IS KIDNAPPED Pugh Held for Ransom by New York’s Female Gangsters Ma) ' 15 — The country was severely shocked today by the startling news that Mr. Roger Pugh, prominent in the New York political world, was kidnapped last night by the famous Female Gangsters. Mr. Pugh, who was formerly of this city, is held for $500,000 ransom. Lillian Gay, the leader of the ruthless gang, made the statement that “We get our man” is the motto of these women, who have lived up to it. A stool pigeon reported to the press that the following are members of the gang : Laura Gitchell, Eleanor Hall, Elsie LJpdike, Margaret Bur- gress, Virginia Dabney, Ruby Hawk- ins, Edna E. Snead, and Charlotte McLean, who was chosen to guard the prisoner.

Queen Bertha Haggard, chosen by James Sargeant, Ben Carter, Jerome Moore, Ellen Coleman, Jean Klise, and Virginia Robinson, will be crowned by Wad- dell Updike, the present Manager of the City. Miss Neville Wood, whom Miss Haggard selected as her Maid of Honor, will lead the Queen’s attend- ( Continued on Page 3) Nkw Jamks G. Johnson School WAR IS DECLARED AGAINST AMAZONS John T. Calhoun Assumes Command of Forces May 15 — President Herman Bick- ers today declared war against the Amazons on general principles. General John T. Calhoun will lead the American forces against these pugnacious women. As General Cal- houn, with his trusty lieutenant, Charles Sours, boarded the train for San Francisco, where he will take charge of the troops, he said his pur- pose was to “Bring ’Em Back Alive.” It is thought that the war will last not more than five days, for the army is composed of a host of Don Juans, among whom is Billy Combs. o “OLD DOG TRAY” STARS E. QUARLES Noted Singer is Supported by Well-Known Cast May 14 — Large crowds were drawn to Delbert Jeter’s Follies House, where Harold Yates’ opera, “Old Dog Tray,” is being produced here for the first time after leaving New York. The audience was entranced by Miss Quarles’ excellent performance of the leading role. After singing the title aria, Miss Quarles was given ten cur- tain calls. (Continued on Page 3) 4- MR. SULFRIDGE MAKES PRINCIPAL ADDRESS Ideal Modernistic School is Made Along Lines of Superb Architecture May 14 — The new James G. John- son High School opened today with an attendance roll of two thousand. 1 he one hundred home rooms were filled completely. At exactly 9:00 o ' clock this morn- ing Dr. Johnson christened the school by breaking a bottle of champagne on the front door. The crowds of stu- dents cheered and cheered as the front doors opened, revealing the long velvet-carpeted lobby, which was furnished with many lounges and chaise-lounges upon which the suc- cessors of Delbert Jeter may spend their spare time. As Mr. Sulfridge led the way into the halls, the students were over- joyed to find the floors marked off with safety zones, and traffic cops holding dominion over each intersec- tion. Air. Sulfridge addressed the assem- bly at 9:45, greeting Dr. Johnson, Miss Lilyan McClung, and the stu- dents whom he would hold in har- ness. After this address the students re- paired to their classrooms to follow the regular routine of the school day. At ten o’clock the radios were turned on in each room, and Wad- dell Updike, our City Manager, gave a talk on “How a City Should Be Run.” After an eight-course dinner was served in the dining room, which covers the whole lower floor of the building, a demonstration in swim- ming and diving was given by Gladys Duff, who won the highest honors in the Olympic Games. This demon- stration was given in the school’s tile (Continued on Page 3) THE MIDWAY STUDENT 2 EDITORIAL STAFF Howald Bailey Editor-in-Chief Everktte Nokford. . .Assistant Editor BUSINESS STAFF Bradley Peyton Manager Donald Dollf.ns. .Assistant Manager THE RIGHT KIND OF COURT Recently established in Charlottes- ville is a “Scrap Court,” over which Mr. and Mrs. William Payne, the former Evelyn Thacker, preside. The court has profited greatly financially, and many strange cases have been brought to light. One example is that case of Finks Catterton and Clarice Smith, who got in a dangerous fight over a tooth- brush. Judge Payne settled the dispute by declaring the toothbrush to belong to Leo Smith, who was called in as a material witness. Another case was that of Ruth and Ruby Ramsey, the twin Hindu Danc- er , who both suffered broken jaws, the result of a fight over a veil. Judge Evelyn Payne, following the example of Solomon, ordered the veil to be cut in halves. Such is life ! o OUR LEISURE TIME How do we spend our leisure time? Do we spend it profitably? Mr. A. T. Dulaney, after spending years in seeking the knowledge of how to spend his leisure time (he has a great deal of it), has at last found what he sought. After slowly dictating intermittent- ly for three years, he has finally pub- lished a one-page pamphlet on this subject. Some of the subjects he em- braces in this pamphlet are whit- tling, star-gazing, and the art of holding back the walls of corner drug stores. As all great men should do, Mr. Dulaney “practices what he preaches.” We should all do well if we should follow Mr. Dulaney’s example, and there is no doubt that our leisure time would be spent profitably. Miss Lora Beazley, who was grad- uated from the University Hospital Nursing School, gave a demonstra- tion to her friends on how to resus- citate a “drowning man.” Miss Elberta Maxwell, the former Mae West of Charlottesville, is mak- ing her home with her husband after five years of calm, cool, and collected consultation, meditation, and deliber- ation. At a reception given by Miss Cornelia Graves for Miss Elizabeth Vaughan, the Miss Giggle of Broadway, Miss Florence Sandridge charmed the guests with a delightful nature dance. Miss Evelyn Gibson was guest of honor at a tea dance given by the Misses Doris Harlan, Hope Bowen, and Augusta Smith. Miss Ruth Peterson, who has late- ly been engaged with a carnival in which she exhibits to the amazed side-show spectators her long, curl- ing, Chinese fingernails, is visiting her friend, Miss Helen Thomas. ' Smith, Smith, and Smith (Ger- trude, Katherine, and Myrtle) have returned home for a rest after a strenuous tour of the Alps in a climbing model T. Ford. Miss Adele Landau, the dress de- signer, has returned from New York City, where she has had dresses made from her very chic designs. The models will be on display at “La Maison Elegance.” o ANNOUNCEMENT On May 18th, at the James G. Johnson High School Assembly Hall, Professor Winston Armentrout will lecture on Hypnotism. BEN FRANKLIN DAVIS WINS BEAUTY CONTEST May 15 — (AP)At a recent contest held by members of the Sad Sisters Society, Franklin Davis was declared more beautiful than all other contest- ants. It was thought rather strange by the spectators that no other contest- ants showed up to give the popular Mr. Davis some competition. After Mr. Davis had been awarded the prize, a breathless messenger, Mamie Davis, burst in to announce that Porter Graves and Jimmy Mau- pin, who had been on their way to compete in the contest, had been way- laid by Mr. Davis’ confederates, Ed- die Belle Andrews and Helen Brun- ton. When the Sad Sisters turned around to arrest Mr. Davis, he had fled. o REA BECOMES DESIGNER FOR JEAN KENNON After spending several years abroad studying under Carl Hart, the great artist, Miss Mary Rea was. asked to design all clothes for Jean Kennon, who is now the biggest box office draw of the moving pictures. o SOURS CHOSEN FIRST LIEUTENANT TO GEN. JOHN T. CALHOUN Today General John T. Calhoun selected as his lieutenant Mr. Charles L. Sours, who will accompany him during his war against the Amazons. Mr. Sours is known the world over for his great fortitude and courage. Last year he captured eighteen pig- mies from the African jungle and brought them back to the Kalamazoo Zoo. He is looked upon with much favor wherever he goes, and many brilliant feats are expected of him in the com- ing war. 3 Till-: MIDWAY STUDENT imiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiaisiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii nm | PERSONALS | mi i mi i in i in miii mi i mi i mi i mi mi mil mi ■ mi mi WHY BE LONELY?

Johnson High School auditorium last night. For the past three years Miss Ricks has been employed in promoting world-wide sisterhood and more spi ri t in the school activities all over the globe. She has been particularly active in southern Africa. Miss Ricks attributes her energy and unceasing efforts to the training received as promoter of school spirit, at “dear old Lane,” her alma mater, many years ago. 1 1 m i m 1 1 1 a 1 1 1 1 1 m 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 e 1 1 1 1 m 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 m 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 e 1 1 f e ! : CHINESE LAUNDRY : j j ALL WORK DONE BY HAND l | Eugene Porter Ernest Matacia = | Raymond Lang John Markell 155 E. 168th St. j Sill II mi llli8llllllllllll 8 8 8 Bllllllllieilllllllllllllllll iiiiiiiBiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiigmeBeiiuiim 8 1 8 8 9 1 — HEBE — i | BEAUTY PARLOUR | | 110 West Main St. | 5 Expert Finger Waves $5.00 = : Castor Oil Shampoo 50 1 | Ducky Permanent Waves 50 i | Helen Elliott Manager I Virginia Coleman. .. .Asst.

ITEM 1 To the class of 1935 we leave the comforting thought that “In the bright lexicon of youth p there is no such word as fail. „ C-A— P. S. Teachers use flunk. To next year’s Seniors we relinquish our much beloved and most conspicuous Senior lunch tables. To each and every member of the class of ’35 we pass on the knowledge that even if they can’t he wits, they can very easily be half-wits. We will to the coming Senior class the Senior banner which the present high and mighty class has most shamefully neglected. ITEM II To the students of Lane High we leave a faculty assembly program to be given exactly one year and nine months after our demise. The program will feature the following : A — Mr. C. J. M. Blume singing several selected ballads. As an encore the afore- mentioned will sing “Hickory, Dickory Dock.” B — Dr. L. T. Jones reciting “The Walrus and the Carpenter” (with gestures). C — Air. John Norville Gibson Finley reading a short treatise on “Why Our Basket- ball Team Won Its Last Game.” D — Dr. Alvey and Air. Lankford singing cowboy songs of the Golden West, accom- panied on the guitar by Airs. Carter. To Air. Haswell Hunter Walker we bequeath a 1934 edition of “Are You a Genius?” and a class that can solve the “Brain Twisters.” To Air. Lacy we will the time Air. Hugh Leander Sulfridge leaves between words in his assembly speeches, to enable the said William Erwin Lacy to hold spelling classes for Lane High students. To Airs. Allan Raine we leave a French II class that will appreciate Alartin ' s “French Verb Book.” To Air. E. R. Riedel we obligingly leave the following tragic theme song: 19 3 4 Forty-one THE CHAIN THE ORANGE AND BLACK Sung to tune of “Auld Lang Syne” (Adopted from Lewis Carroll) He thought he saw a football team Descending from a bus. He looked again and found it was A hippopotamus. “If this should stay and dine,” lie said, “It’ll cost too much for us.” We bequeath to the G. A. A. a revolving door for the lunch room, to be designed by Rube Goldberg and operated by remote control. If the aforementioned article does not relieve the present crowded condition at Lane, we suggest that Mr. Sulfridge hang out a sign reading, “Standing Room Only.” ITEM III The Senior class has long been cognizant of the strange fact that certain members of the student body consider them, to put it mildly, eccentric. ’Tis not so strange after all. “What would a village of peanuts think if a couple of cocoanuts suddenly rolled in among them?” The cocoanuts, remembering that they are soon going to be cracked, wish to bestow upon certain of the peanuts their most prized possessions. A pleasant combination of the petite giggles of Robert W. Cole, and Leo Smith is left to Edward N. Hase. Sandy Smith’s inclination to remain silent at all times and places is passed on to Charles Henry Page, with the sincere wish that the latter will find it useful. Carter Cole and Jimmie Maupin gladly leave their freckles to Wallace Trevillian. Neville Wood’s demureness is transferred with undue respect to Evelyn Updike. We desire that Harold Taylor Yates’ bass be left to Hugh Birckhead. Raymond Lang bequeaths his Latin beauty to Frank Gitchell. Waddell Updike leaves his excess energy and his ability to “crack ’em wise” to Oswald Taylor. William Payne and Evelyn Thacker sentimentally bequeath their position as the most romantic couple at Lane High to Woodrow Poss and Nancy Herr. Bill Arundale modestly confers his athletic prowess upon John E. Manahan. Delbert Jeter, remembering sweet dreams, tenderly leaves to Peter Hutter his ability to sleep in Mr. Lacy’s classes. Helen Ricks, Ellen Coleman, Inc., do wish herein to bequeath their ubiquitious school spirit to the incoming Freshmen, knowing that there will be enough for all, and a little to spare. Howald Bailey transfers his ability to write mellerdrammers and his position as head of the N. R. A. (No Rational Actions) to Dennis Clarke. 1 9 3 Forty-tuo THE CHAIN To Lane High we present a Boosters’ Club that will do more than wear silly little orange and black caps and march up the field behind the Municipal Band. Franklin Davis desires his superfluous dramatic talent to be divided among the students of Lane High, with the knowledge that next year’s assemblies will all be A No. 1. Cdadys Duff wishes to leave her lackadaisical manner to the Freshman class, hoping in this way to prevent at least a part of the “battle, murder, and sudden death” that sometimes occurs in the halls. Lawrence Theimer transfers his admirable talent as a cartoonist to Holt Souder. Elberta Maxwell, Lane High ' s Mae West, bestows her “You fascinate me” smile and her Come up and see me sometime line to Sue Irvine. Charles Sours’ genius for saying “Are there any more nominations?” and “Anybody second the motion?” is left to whoever the next Senior class thinks able to perform the aforementioned feats. Ernest Matacia feels compelled to transmit to Miss Mildred Jones his marvelous imita- tions of Joe Fenner’s “You nasty man,” and Ed. Winn’s “So-oo-oo-oo-o.” “Tee” Blankinship wishes to confer her great skill at the piano upon Katherine Pierce. Billy Combs desires to leave his inferiority complex to Franklin Bcddow. The boys of Lane High are very anxious to have Doris Harlan’s post in the library left to Mildred Wiant. ITEM IV We hereby nominate, constitute, and appoint Miss Gladys Schuder as sole executrix of this will. In witness whereof, we, the testatrixes, set our hand and seal unto this, our last will and testament, this thirtieth day of May, Anno Domini One Thousand Nine Hundred Thirty- four. Ruby Ramsey (Seal) Ruth Ramsey (Seal) Signed, sealed, published, and declared by the above named testatrixes as and for the last will and testament of the class of 1934 in our presence together, and we, in their presence, and in the presence of each other, and at their request, have hereunto set out hands as attesting witnesses. “Apple Jack” “Mama” Laid “Slim” Snitz 19 3 4 Forty-three Our classes are striving for the apple of success with the same zeal and ingenuity which stirred the ancient goddess. 1..

For several years there has been only one staff for the publications of both The Chain and the Bumble Bee, the school magazine. This latter publication is printed three times a year, one issue being brought out in the fall and a second i n spring; the third issue is included within The Chain. This magazine fosters the students’ literary talents and aims to present entertaining reading matter for the school as a whole. Last year the Bumble Bee won first prize for high school magazines in Class B in Vir- ginia; The Chain won honorable mention.

The first meeting of the Council was held in September to elect officers for the fall term. From that day on it has served the school faithfully and successfully. With the help of Miss Martha Duke and Mr. H. H. Walker the Council succeeded in obtaining rubber cups for the chairs, which greatl y reduced the noise in the library. It also secured study classes in the assembly hall and regulated the number of dances which the school should sponsor. It passed on the regulations of the Booster’s Club which were pre- sented by Mr. Sulfridge. It built and supported the Honor Committee to serve the entire school. With the second term, new representatives were chosen to the Student Council. At the opening meeting the election of officers was held. The Council started to work immediately on improving conditions existing in the halls and the library by committees which have re- ceived cheerful co-operation from the student body.

Secretary Bradley Peyton Treasurer Miss Winona Johnston Sponsor The Hayes Literary Society was founded in 1925, with a total of twenty-five pupils having scholastic and literary reputation. From the small but proud little society that first started, the organization has now more than fifty members. Its ideal has been to guide its members along the literary paths and to furnish a basis for all literary work. The society presented in November an assembly program featuring dances, songs, and a play, “The Trysting Place,” which starred Roger Pugh and Hazel Ellington. Last spring the society was proud of its debating team, which went to the semi-finals in the State-wide literary contest held at the University. The debating team was composed of Whitton Morse and Margaret Hulvey. The contest in declamation against the Metcalf Society was won by Charles Mitchell, who gave The Tell-Tale Heart by Poe. he Hayes will enter again the school literary contests against the Metcalf with the hope ning over their friendly rivals. 19 3 4 Sixty Readimj from Left to Riylit First Row — D.

The successful contestants in reading, public speaking, and debates won their way to the University. B. B. Woodson won the State Championship for Class B schools, and Howald Bailey won the State Championship in all classes. Jack Manahan, one of Metcalf’s outstanding members, took first prize in the State Latin Tournament for second year pupils. Interesting programs have been given by the members at the bi-weekly meetings. At the Christmas assembly, a most entertaining play, “One Gift Above Another,” was presented by the society and was heartily enjoyed. 19 3 4 . Sixty-one Reading from Left to Right Back Row — M.

They sponsored, with the Boys’ Hi-Y, the “Freshman Mixer” and the Christmas and Thanksgiv- ing baskets for the poor. As their year’s project they chose the care of a little girl from the Children’s Home. The annual “good will fund” was sent this year in the form of “Tuning in Cards” to four foreign countries. Thus far, this organization has been most succecssful in carrying out its religious program, supplementing this with activities of a social and recreative nature that are helpful. On the whole the year is acknowledged to have been the most profitable and aggressive of the club’s existence. Sixty-two Reading from Left to Right Back Row — J. Maupin, L. Smith, H. Wilkerson, E.

Some of the activities of the year included a “Mixer” given in October for the entertain- ment of the Freshmen; the distribution of food and provisions to the needy and to the Red Cross at Thanksgiving, and the usual dance during the Christmas season. The club gave the Thanksgiving assembly program featuring a play, “Chu Chu,” written by Mr. Finley.

The minstrel featured end-men Davis, Alwood, Bragg, and Fitch, brought into action by interlocutor Lyon. Additional soloists were Cole and Glascock, supported by the entire Glee Club chorus. The most effective number was the informal camp-fire shadow scene, in which Ernest Matacia led the singing of The Last Round-Up. A Music Memory Contest had not been tried in Lane High School before this year. Its aim was to give students a chance to enjoy and appreciate good music by becoming better acquainted with it. The contestants who made perfect scores on March 16 were awarded a Music Memory 1934 Pin. 19 3 4 Sixty-four Reading from Left to Right First Rom — M. Ellington, E. Updike, E. Bishop, M. Borden, J.

The main projects of the club for this year were to discuss composers ' lives and their compositions, and to form a new constitution. Many requests having been made for a program of popular music, the Glee Club this year presented an assembly to fulfill this long called-for demand. The scene of the annual assem- bly was laid in a night club. Numerous popular songs were interpreted by suitable dances. Appropriate costumes for each number on the entertainment program added to the enjoyment of the presentation. 9 3 4 : ■ Sixty- five Reading from Left to Right First Row — F. Yoe, M. Ellington, D.

S zzL Gilmer Hall Ernest James Ernest Anthony Until the latter part of the school year 1932-33, the musical curriculum at Lane High had been confined almost entirely to the glee clubs. But in the latter part of that year, a small group, feeling the need for an instrumental ensemble, organized under Dan Yuter and determined that this school orchestra should not fail. II At the beginning of this school year a search for new material was undertaken, and the orchestra was reorganized under the joint direction of Charles Mitchell, Harry James, and Charlie Page, with Miss Nickels as sponsor. Only popular music was attempted, because it was impossible to play even the very light classics without a better balanced instrumentation. The organization participated in any program in connection with the school in which its assistance was invited. Sheet music was provided by the school, and work was begun at once. Now this organization is one of the most progressive at Lane High. Thanks to the encouragement and valuable advice and co-operation of Mr. Sulfridge, and to the patient efforts of its members and leaders, it has managed to attain success. r if WmmmL ' 4IE Hi 19 3 4 Sixty-eight The Florist Shop CAST Maude, the florist’s assistant Eleanor Hall Henry, the office boy Harry James Miss Wells, engaged fifteen years Elberta Maxwell Mr. Jackson, a bachelor James H.

The final presentations occurred on the morning and evening of May 12, 1933, at which times it was staged at the University of Virginia in the Virginia State Dramatic Contest, where it was the winner of the Class P State Championship. “The Florist Shop” was produced under the able direction of Miss Mildred Mrs. E. O. McCue, Jr. Sixty-nine The Whole Town’s Talking On January 11 and 12 the faculty of Lane High presented “The Whole Town’s Talking,” a three-act farce by John Emerson and Anita Loos. The setting of the play is laid in Sandusky, Ohio. Mr. Henry Simmons hits upon a plan by which “Chet” Kinney, his uninteresting business partner and the unpolished, nervous suitor of Ethel, his daughter, might win the girl. Aided by her father, “Chet” pretends to have had a love affair with a popular movie star, Lettie Lythe. This story impresses the girl and turns her attention away from sophisticated Roger Shields, “Chet’s” rival. Kinney’s past gets out and becomes the town talk. The plan works wonderfully until Lettie comes to town for a per- sonal appearance. She is accompanied by her jealous fiance, who hears of the fictitious but incriminating rumors of “Chet’s” affair. There trouble starts for the well-meaning but precipitant lover of Ethel. Mr. Simmons’ efforts to settle the difficulty meet with no success, but seem only to make matters worse. Intrigue carried on by every character finally terminate in a hilarious fight in the dark. The play was presented before an enthusiastic and well-filled house. The teachers gave skillful performance, which was thoroughly appreciated by the stu- dents, who enjoyed seeing the faculty in roles very different from those in which they usually appear.

ATHLETICS THE CHAIN Our Athletic Leaders J IMMY LEITCH, in concluding his fifth and last year of coaching at Lane High School, leaves behind him a record of which he and the school may well be proud. He has had charge of every sport, and in all of them he has turned out teams which have been outstanding ; especially good have been his foot- ball squads, which have won one state and three district cham- pionships. Resides being an excellent coach, Jimmy has made himself very popular with the students, who feel genuine regret at his departure. Miss Lucile Bridgman, in her first year as coach of the girls’ basketball team, has had many difficulties with which to contend. Regardless of this handicap, she succeeded in working up an interest in basketball, and we feel that next year we will have an excellent year in girls ' athletics. Mr. E. R. Riedel, better known as “Profit,” is to a large extent responsible for the success of Lane High School’s teams. In his capacity as financial adviser he has enabled our teams to have the best equipment and facilities in the state, while as an all-round good sport he is well-liked by everyone. No team can be wholly successful without cheer leaders, and perhaps Lane’s athletic success can in part be attributed to the fine support it received from its rooters. Buddy Glover, Evelyn Updike, Bobby Andrews, James Taylor, Angelia Gajigianis, Miriam Yuter, and Hazel Ellington have been always on hand and have been largely responsible for the amount of pep displayed by the stands at every game. 19 3 4 Seventy-five Football Review, 1933 Under Coach Jimmy Leitch’s regime it has become rather usual for Lane High to have a good football team. This year proved to be no exception, and for the third consecutive season the Orange and Black team was among the best in the state. In ten games the squad lost only one; it won the district championship, and narrowly missed getting state honors. Again we thank Coach Leitch and the squad who worked faithfully and co-operated again to assert Lane High School’s supremacy on Virginia gridirons. The local eleven showed that it was in for another good season by defeating its old and stubborn rival, Virginia Episcopal School, by a score of 14-6. The Lynchburg school as usual furnished stiff opposition, and after the first quarter, in which Lane scored both its touchdowns on long runs, the game was closely con- tested. By a stonewall defense Lane stopped a V. E. S. scoring threat on the one- yard line and held its advantage until the closing whistle gave us our first victory of the season. The next contest could scarcely be called one, for Lane made a track meet of it at the expense of Shenandoah City’s light and inexperienced eleven. Nearly everyone on the squad saw action, and our first team scored almost at will. The opponents made a game stand, but were overwhelmed, and the final score was Lane, 59 ; Shenandoah City, 0. It was Friday, the thirteenth when Lane went to Culpeper High School to play, but the host school got all the bad luck and we continued our winning streak. The field, which was one complete mud-hole, was a handicap to both teams, but our squad pushed over two touchdowns to win, 12-0. The team, which had to depend on straight line plays, was kept from further scoring by the long, well- placed punts of Culpeper’s star back, Bruce. Harrisonburg High School always plays inspired football against our eleven, and this year the game was among the best and hardest-fought on the schedule. It was only after the Valley team had scored two touchdowns that Lane downed their fighting squad. The contest was indeed thrilling, full of long runs and un- expected breaks, but the local eleven w r as off to a good start and held its advantage to win, 33 to 14. Seventy-six But good as our team was, it ran up against a better in Vinton High School, and Lane’s long winning streak, extending over two seasons, was snapped by a 7-0 defeat at the hands of the other school. Vinton held our squad well in check, stopping our passing and running attack well, and made a single touchdown in the first quarter to dash Lane ' s hopes of a second straight State championship. Staunton was the scene of another battle between old rivals, Lane and Lee High School. The Valley team was not as strong as usual, however, and our gridders outclassed them by a score of 24-0. Drawing heavy penalties throughout the contest, the Orange and Black squad nevertheless functioned perfectly in hold- ing Staunton from making a single first down. Before the large Armistice Day crowd, Lane High School eked out a win over Hampton on Venable Field. The score, 14 to 12 in favor of our squad, shows how narrow the margin of difference between the elevens was, and Taylor’s place- kicks for the extra points accounted for our victory. Lane scored in the first and third quarters to pile up a substantial lead, but in the fourth Hampton came back in a Garrison finish that narrowly missed overtoppling our team. Lexington was the next to fall before or gridiron warriors, who defeated the much larger team at Lexington by a 19-0 score. Disque, replacing the injured Arundale at quarterback, ran the team well and starred in leading our eleven to victory, while Lang ' s punting and runs also deserved much credit. The second team showed its strength in the Waynesboro game, playing the entire first half and leading all the way. When Coach Leitch sent in the first string, the reserves had already piled up a lead of three touchdowns, and even the Juniors, Lane’s midget group, kept the visitors from scoring to make the final count : Lane 40, Waynesboro 0. The last game of the season was perhaps the most poorly played, but the Orange and Black nevertheless outplayed Washington and Lee High School of Clarendon in the traditional Thanksgiving Day encounter. Both teams made a poor showing, fumbling and missing scoring chances, and the large crowd was disappointed by an uninteresting game which ended with our team on the good side of a 6-0 score. While Lane missed its chance for the state title by losing the one game to Vinton, we are very well satisfied with the showing of our squad. They won nine games and lost one, piling up 212 points to their opponents’ 39. In every game the team played hard and well, and we feel that they fully deserved each victory. Seventy-seven FI.

There were many new men on the team who were eager to learn. After a few weeks of hard training the team was surprised and pleased by the announcemnt that they were going to College Park, Maryland, to compete in a track meet. Whitton Morse, Curtis Smith, and Billy Jones carried off awards. After this we all looked forward with anticipation to the annual state meet. The team was in prime condition for this event. Lane High School took third place in the meet. Curtis Smith and Whitton Morse took first and second places respectively in the low hurdles; James Wiebel took first place in the 440-yard dash. Whitton Morse also took fourth place in the javelin throw. The relay composed of Sours, Smith, Jones, and Wiebel took third place in the relay. We look forward to next year, when we hope the team will do as well if not better. Intramural Baseball Last year Lane started its first intramural activities with baseball. Each class was represented by lively teams and there were many fast games. The Junior class, captained by Raymond Lang, was the winner. Following is the standing of the teams : T earn Won Lost Percentage Juniors 9 3 .750 Freshmen 5 4 .555 Sophomore 5 5 .500 Seniors 2 9 .182 Golf Following the custom of the past few years, Lane High School entered three contestants in the State Golf Tournament at Woodberry Forest School. They were Raymond Lang, Julian Souder, and Walter Bickers. Unfortunately our trio did not place in the meet, but furnished stiff competition for the excellent golfers with whom they competed.

New intramural sports were introduced, old ones revived, and varsity competition in basketball made another start which should in the future again bring champion- ships to our school. ATHLETIC COUNCIL An Athletic Council was organized to have charge of intramural sports, and for the first time a system of points and awards was devised. It was decided that a girl must win twenty athletic points in order to get an ath- letic pin. Since this is a new idea, and since it is difficult to earn the required points, no Reading from Left to Right . First Rom — S. Buford, J. Spicer, E. Coleman, and S. L. Carter One thus fai has WOn a pin. In Second Row— L. Beazley, D. Feuchtenberger, H. Elliott a f ew y earSj however, there should be an excellent club composed of girl members. HIKING The first sport on the program was hiking, which became quite popular in the fall. A point was awarded for every twenty-five miles walked, and about thirty girls took part in the longest single hike, one of ten miles. The most interesting trip of the season was a moonlight hike up Patterson’s Mountain. Since several courts were reserved for them at the city courts, a number of girls took part in tennis, either as begin- ners or more advanced play- ers. Tournaments were held in both these classes. Elizabeth Nalley and Dorothy Feuch- tenberger battled for the sin- gles championship, with the victory going to the former, and then teamed to defeat TENNIS Eighty-six 19 3 4 Neville Wood and Eleanor Quarles for the doubles title. In the beginners’ tourna- ment Louise Daniel won the singles title; Frances Devereux and Betty Shumate became the doubles champions. SOCCER This year soccer was introduced at Lane, and the girls divided into two teams with the Orange squad, captained by Elizabeth Coleman, and the Blacks by Eliza- beth Nalley. In the weekly contests the Blacks won more games, although the varsity was composed of members of both teams. Those making the varsity were : Estelle Lana- han, Lucile James, Elizabeth Coleman, Fay Purvis, Eliza- beth Nalley, Mary Cameron Buford, Helen Stahl, and Eleanor Quarles. BASKETBALL When Miss Bridgman issued the call for girls’ basketball, about thirty girls responded. For practice work the squad was divided into four teams. Helen Elliott captained the “Mickey Mouse” team; Sally Lee Carter the “Giants”; Edith Marshall, the “Midgets,” and Lora Beazley the “Sports.” Nine intramural games were played and the trophy, which was the reward of the star team, went to the “Giants,” although the “Sports” put up a grand fight. From these four teams the varsity team was selected, as well as the regular substitutes. Those receiving letter awards were : Helen Elliott, Sally Lee Carter, Edith Marshall, and Elizabeth Nalley. Handicapped by lack of facilities for practice and the loss, for one reason or another, of several players, the varsity season was not so successful. The team won one game and lost eight ; however, many of the games were close, and we feel that the squad did its best throughout the season. Next year, when the sport is better established in high school, it is hoped that the team may be able to im- prove its record. 9 3 4 Eighty-seven As Virginians of old presented Queen Victoria with the choicest fruit of the land, so we ofifer the best products of our literary talent. LITECACy Vive La Liberte Perrin Shaw, ’36 HROUGH the swirling ' haze of smoke that filled the taproom could be seen the sprawling figures of drunken men and women, while over all lurked an atmosphere strongly reminiscent of ancient garlic and stale whiskey. In his tilting chair slumped the barkeeper with a wary if sleepy eye on the till, where reposed the night’s earnings. Above, surrounded by dusty bottles, two candles burned low, casting flickering shadows on the timbered ceiling. In the dim illumination in the far side of the room two men conversed in low tones. A third lay across the table, snoring through the huge moustache which dropped over his chin. All wore the Cockade of Liberty in their hats, but upon closer scrutiny they could be recognized as members of the late King Louis’s glittering court. “I hear,” one said softly, “that the daughter of the Due D’Oise has been imprisoned in La Foret.” “What !” roared his companion, drawing a rapier from beneath his cloak. “The daughter of the Due D’Oise in that filthy prison! I’ll slit every swinish throat in Paris to avenge this insult to noble blood.” “For God’s sake, Robert, calm yourself. Remember this is Paris of the Revolution, not the court.” “Paul,” he said in a strangely emotional voice, “I am going to get her out if it costs me my life.” “Give me the wine ! You have had quite enough. Any more and you will want to challenge Maret himself to a duel.” “Oh, shut up, and let me think.” “Permission granted.’ Paul raised the nearly-empty bottle to his lips, and with a soul satisfying sigh, allowed the few remaining drops to roll over his tongue. “And now, dear Bacchus, I resign myself to your arms,” he murmured as he sank back into his seat. The minutes were rustilv ticked off by the battered clock which hung upon the wall. “I’ve got it!” Robert suddenly exclaimed, arising from the midst of profound thought. “Yes?” “Surely, it’s simple. iff Listen.” 19 3 4 Ninety THE H A I N Paul lent an attentive ear. “It may work,” he admitted. “Come, awaken Henri, and let’s go.” The moon shone cold and forbidding through the fleecy clouds which slid across her face. A chilling autumn wind roughly pushed creaking signs aside and slammed doors on its wild career through dusty streets. “A good night for business such as ours,” Henri hopefully observed, “but if it were darker, my head would feel even more secure.” They cautiously made their way through narrow cobbled lanes, and at last stood before the grim walls of La Foret. “Open up!” Robert commanded as he pounded lustily upon the huge oaken door. “We have a prisoner.” In a few moments the sleepy eyes of the Directeur peered at them through the iron grill. “Have patience,” he growled. “The prison is already over-filled. We are not so anxious to get prisoners that we receive them with open arms in the dead of night.” He pulled the massive bolt back, and the door swung open. The hilt of a rapier flashed and descended with a heavy thud upon the skull of the unfortunate Directeur, who collapsed without a sound on the stone pave- ment of the passage. As he fell, Paul wrenched the huge key from his neck, where it hung sus- pended from a greasy cord. “Hurry,” he cautioned as he stealthily led them through the vaulted hall. “He won’t be out very long, and if we are caught ” Deep rasping snores greeted their ears as they crept past the sleeping cham- ber of the guard. This safely done, the tension relaxed, and they breathed more easily. “How are you going to find her cell?” Paul asked. “Trust to luck, I suppose.” Rounding an abrupt corner, they stumbled over the body of the lone sentry, who lay sleeping on the floor. Before he could make a cry, it was smothered in his throat by a grasp of steel. “Where is the cell of Mile. D’Oise?” Robert questioned in a fierce voice as he relaxed his grip. “There behind you,” the frightened sentry gasped, as he caressed his neck. “In cell seven.” “All right. Henri, put a gag around his mouth while I bind his legs and arms.” Paul placed the key in the lock. There was a sharp click, and the door grated loudly against the rough floor. 19 3 4 Ninety-one “Sweet lady!” Henri whispered, “this is the end!” “What is it?” inquired a startled voice from the darkness. “Shh !” Robert cautioned. “We are going to rescue you if the guards have not been awakened.” They made their way quickly through the passage, breaking into a run as the gate was reached. “Whew! I’m glad that’s over,” gasped Henri. “But now what are we going to do?” This question, combined with the slight mist that fell, threw a pall of melan- choly over their spirits. “Look!” Paul suddenly cried. “Look, there is a coach under that lamp on the opposite side of the street.” The owner proved to be absent ; and with Henri in the driver’s seat, they rattled off at an ever-increasing pace towards the gates of Paris. As they neared the gates, Henri whipped the horses into a mad gallop. Across the barrier they tore before the guards could prevent them. “Oh, my heroes!” the voice cooed. “To think you have risked your lives to save mine !” “I would do anything for you, my dear,” Robert breathed into her ear. That perfume ! That voice of such liquid sweetness ! His blood raced at the thought of them. “You are so romantic.” He could control himself no longer. “I have always dreamed of a girl like you. You are the breath of life to me. I love you !” “But you are so young! You do not know what love really is.” “I may be young in years, but in experience ” Paul burst into a roar of laughter. The dawn had now approached, and the light had become sufficient for vision. Robert turned, a menacing glare in his eyes. Then he saw ! “Perhaps,” he quickly continued, “you are right. Yes, I am far too young to know of such things.” “Oh, Robert! Don’t be offended.” A look of anguish spread over her face. But he was gone. “My boy,” Paul said in a fatherly manner as they picked themselves up from the road and scraped the mud from their clothes, “you should always look before you leap.” And this may be interpreted in several ways, for framed in the rear window of the fast disappearing carriage was the most hideous face that man has ever looked upon. Nincty-lwo HE CHAIN ks at Alice in Wonderland” Charlotte McLean, ’34 I hope that all my readers have read Alice in Wonderland at least once; otherwise, they will have very little idea about what I atn writ- ing. I also hope that if there are any who have not, I can interest them so much in the story that they will get a copy and experience the great pleasure that everybody should find in this story by Lewis Carroll. Up until the time I began thinking about the topic for this essay, I had supposed Alice in Wonderland to be merely a child’s book. This is, 1 believe, the view held by a great many people ; but since studying the matter a little, I find that this opinion is entirely unfair to the story. The book has the reputation of being one of the best children’s legends ; it deals with the adventures of a seven-year-old girl in the wonderland of her own imagination. There are all sorts of birds and animals and imaginary creatures among the pages of the little story, and a pack of cards and a set of chessmen come to life and take the leading roles with Alice. All this, it would seem, could have no hold on the adult mind, which is supposed to have outgrown the fairyland stage. However, if one goes deeper into the construc- tion of the work, he finds that there is a great deal which could never have been written for children ten years old, for it is far beyond their understanding. And then again — is the “adult mind,” so called, really past the point of enjoying fairy tales? Aren’t there those who enjoy an occasional plunge into the unreal? Aren ' t there many whose minds are delicate enough to feel the beauty and charm of the story by Carroll ? Carroll’s style of writing is a wonderful achievement. It is simple enough for the little ones for w r hom it was first written ; yet no grown-up would ever be bored by it. It has a certain quaintness of expression that is as endearing on the twen- tieth time it is read, as upon the first. The poetry of the author deals exclusively with nonsensical subjects, but it is done with such a music of time and beauty of expression, but withal with such fantastic humor, that it really suits persons who know something about poetry more than it fits children to whom the thought con- tent is the thing. “A-Setting on a Gate” is one of my favorites, though it is not as well knowm as “The Walrus and the Carpenter.” Who has not heard the famous lines, “ ‘The time has come,’ the Walrus said, ‘To speak of many things, Of ships, and shoes, and sealing wax, Of cabbages and kings !’ ”? 19 3 4 Ninety-three THE CHAIN The whole composition is clotted with amusing bits of poetry and songs. The main point of all, however, to the mature reader is the characterization, while to the infant readers it is, naturally, the series of adventures in all of their wonderful strangeness. Fidelity to life and gentle sarcasm creep in ; sly wit and a tiny bit of philosophy are there. Necessarily (do not forget the tale was originally done for eight-year-old Alice), dream stuff makes up most of the narrative — but they are such very intriguing dreams! Few persons, no matter how old or young, find them anything but exciting. If you, as an older reader, get hold of a copy of the book with its original illustrations, you will find it much more interesting and worth while than a volume with drawings by some modern artist. John Tenniel created the first pictured Alice, and she is nearly as well-known as the literary heroine. In fact, the two are inseparable. One cannot imagine Alice looking other than she does in these initial illustrations. I do not believe that even the children would have her put into modern dress, for in it she would lose some of her quality of distance and ethereality. I mentioned further back that there was a touch of philosophy in the story. This may seem queer to those who still believe the tale is for children only, and the statement needs an example for proof. Remember, if you can, the incident (this is in “Through the Looking Glass,” but I am regarding the two as a whole, under the name of the first) in which Alice is told by Tweedledum and Tweedle- dee that she must not awaken the Red King who is snoring loudly under a nearby tree, because if she does, they will all disappear. The answer to her very natural question, “Why?,” is that they are part of the King’s dream; and that if he is disturbed, they will vanish into nothingness. Doesn’t this remind you of theories advanced by scientists and atheists of the present day? It is said that Carroll had in mind a thought of a Greek philosopher, Plato, who claimed that nothing is real ; everything is part of one’s imagination. I do not intend to discuss the matter ; I merely mention it to show that there are moments when the author drops for a time the appearance of childish romance and brings in something quite sophis- ticated. Think twice while you read of the White Knight, the Duchess, the White Queen, and Humpty Dumpty, and decide whether or not they are meant to amuse boys and girls only. Is the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party just another incident in a fairy tale, or does it really have something in its dialogue? Why was it that Queen Victoria laughed when she read of Alice and the Red Queen’s trying to get somewhere by running very fast, but never seeming to move a trifle? Next time • f Lewis Carroll’s fairy tale, try reading it as an adult’s book. 1 1 i Look for the hidden meanings among its pages, and marvel at the wonderful skill that makes it suitable to children and grown-ups. 19 3 4 Ninety-four THE CHAIN Kindred Spirit Eleanor Quarles, ’34 Hail, friend! (though you a stranger be). I saw you smile in passing me And eager, raptured features lift To feel the snowflakes softly drift. You scanned the landscape, and 1 knew That snow means more than snow to you. The magic beauty did enthrall ; You saw the power behind it all. Do you indeed love snowflakes too ? Then truly I’m a friend to you. I can’t withhold a smile, a nod, For you, too, know snow comes from God. Aftermath Howald Bailey, ’34 The clouds hang thick o’er Flanders Field ; The bugle’s last soft call Has pealed again the end of day, And quiet reigns over all. No longer will the guns resound ; No longer flares the light. The time of strife once more is o’er As fall the shades of night. O men of brave and daring deeds, Your call you did obey, And now that you do lie at rest, Tribute to you we pay. Brave men, your time has come and gone, But you have done your work ; And now that war has seen an end, We’re glad you did not shirk. The clouds hang thick o’er Flanders Field ; The bugle dies away ; O men of brave and daring deeds, Tribute to you we pay. 19 3 4 Ninety-five CHAIN The United States’ Principles Harold Taylor Yates, ’34 UT in the New York harbor, occasionally sprayed with the salt- watery mists of the Atlantic Ocean and facing eastward with an expression of the loving-kindness and understanding of a mother, stands a lapidescent symbol of man’s idea of freedom, the beautiful Statue of Liberty. Tt was erected as a perpetual memorial to the incipience of a new nation which recognizes the men — Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. It stands as a monument not alone to the birth of a new nation but to tbe unparalleled, unrivaled, and insurmountable high standards and integrity of our country’s citizens. As it stands, it is the greatest personification of freedom the world has ever known, and it represents a nation that is forever marching forward, leading the greater nations of the world. Over the harbor at New York, the Statue of Liberty luminates an atmosphere of fidelity. Flashing intermittently, yet perpetually, from the torch which it holds high above its head, is the light representing liberty, the light that commemorates our forefathers’ earnest and successful desire for freedom. To the rear of this egregious example of man’s creative ability and patriotism lies the United States, to us the strongest nation structurally in the world, a coun- try that has risen from a small group of colonies weakly governed to a great amalgamation of states rigidly yet democratically governed, a country that has become the most powerful of the great world powers, and one that has established and continues to set many precedents not only in national but also in international affairs. Regardless of the great continental significance of the Statue of Liberty and the principles for which it stands, this nation, like all others in the world, is going through one of the severest domestic upheavals in its history; yet it has faced it with the same determination that is radiated in the stone face of the statue itself. Realizing the exigence of living up to the principles for which that Statue of Liberty stands and feeling an urgent need for a change in party power, the citizens of this country have called into their service one of the greatest leaders of all times, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. His productiveness, his creativeness, and his progressiveness are each one an eminent example of the principles for which this country stands. He was elected at a time when the very foundation of our country seemed to be crumbling from the disheartening effects of our precarious economic innate rights of Ninety-six condition ; yet, when he walked into the White House, he wore a smile radiating a tremendous amount of determination which put faith and courage back into the heart of every citizen. One of the most beautiful things about Roosevelt’s character is that he refuses to be called superhuman. He realizes that he does not know everything ; and when confronted with a problem with which he is unfamiliar, he immediately turns to an authority on the subject, with that one obsession, “the greatest good to the greatest number.” Nothing shows his profound determination any better than that statement of some months ago in which he intimated that all his plans would be tentative ; and that if they failed, while he would gladly admit failure, he would not accept defeat but would try again until the solution be found. He promised action, and he has fulfilled his promise most nobly. Taking the oath of office March 4, 1933, he went straight to work, and the first ten days found him neglecting even his own physical condition that he might put his undivided attention on those matters which interested the individuals of the country. So intent has he been on meliorating the individual’s condition that he has defied his party leaders numerous times. He is not a party man ; he is a man who stands ready at all times to co-operate one hundred per cent with the citizens of the United States. By taking the individuals of the country into his confidence and explaining his plans, he has manifested a sincere belief in the high integrity of the masses, which has resulted in the dissemination of an estimable amount of faith in him. Under his adroit leadership, we as a nation are marching forward, guided eternally by that flickering light in the Statue of Liberty and carrying “Old Glory” to higher levels among the greater nations of the world, for to him there is no such thing as retreat. In reality Roosevelt is one of the greatest living examples of the principles of the Statue of Liberty that we have among us. He believes that the human welfare can be increased only through integrity, responsibility, unselfishness, and justice; yet in spite of these high principles and standards, we find him often accused of negligence and dereliction by many of those who are at this time gladly willing and unpatriotic enough to withdraw all co-operation with the Federal Government in its plans and policies. When we hear these false accusations of remiss and negligence on the part of our chief executive, it is time for us to proclaim that Roosevelt, just as the Statue of Liberty, stands for God ! for Home ! and for Country ! Ninety-seven Following the example of Johnny Appleseed, we scatter these seeds of personal glimpses, hoping ' they will grow and blossom in the orchard of your memory.

Mr. Lacy: “Carter, wake Billy Combs.” Carter: “You do it; you’re the one who put him to sleep.” John Finley’s a teacher brand new Who keeps our sweet girls in a stew. The dear little lassies Just rush to his classes, For about love be tells what to do. Elberta (handing in math problems) : “These are my Mae West math problems.” Mr. Walker: “How so, Miss Elberta?” Elberta : “I done ’em wrong.” There was a young laddie named Pugh, Who said, “Oh ! W hat must 1 do? I should look my best ; I’m up for a test, ’Cause Cecil likes my Charlotte too.” Air. Riedel (admiring his picture for the annual) : “But I don’t like the head.” Jimmy M. : “W’ho does?” 1 )ear Charlie we can’t do without. The Seniors must have him about. He plans all the dances, Takes care of finances, And does all without even a pout. Into the lunchroom we troop At recess time (we all give a whoop) We push and we shove And all for the love Of a steaming hot bowl full of soup. Miss Lucy : “The first one who speaks while I am out of the room must stay in after school.” Hazel Ellington: “Somebody speak quick so I can say something!” The New Deal’s at old Lane to stay, “Why work?” our school problems say. 1 )ulaney just sits, W’hile Billy has fits If he works for an hour a day. Luke Lyon is Senior Class sheik, The girls all his glances do seek. But he says, “I’m immune, So please change your tune.” But they only turn t’other cheek. “The library is such a nice place, For there I see her smiling face.” A young lad thus thought, So a permit he sought To look up the charms of his race.
