'lihat day some children were crying, for they had never been away from home: others giggled and laughed. and it was indeed a memorable time. ln, lf it had not been for the kind, soothing words of Miss Maggie lludgins. the First Grade teacher, and the motherly pats. l'm afraid many would have lost heart and fled to their mothers. Such is life, my classmates of today. everything is necessary to make up a routine-both sorrow and gladness. Of that little band who started then, we have only five members in the cl Class of 1926: Guyon Xvhitten, Carlton Gilkey. Margaret Craig, Mary iXlice l,aughridge, and .Iinimie Gibson. 'llhat seems comparatively few, but many of that old class have dropped out, moved away-or decided that they would rather join the lower ranks and files. Each one that left, was replaced by two or more. and we now have the striving class of forty-five members. XYith the untiring help of Miss lludgins and Miss Margaret Xkinslow. who + took such a liking for us that she remained with us during the second and third years, we managed to advance through the primary grades with flying colors. all because of the supervision of these charming ladies. 'llhen we became full-fledged Grammar Grade Students under the super- vision of Miss Iillen Crawford, the Fourth Grade teacher. llere we had our Q' first experiences in Geography and indeed they were experiences, for no one could tell exactly whether rainfall was heavier in the mountains or on the sea coast. Occasionally we had to remain after sehool, much to our regret, but never- theless. our knowledge was strengthened in more than Geography. The next year saw many additions to our trudging infantryg some coming 'U' from Tennessee. Yirginia, and South Carolina. XYe felt very distinguished to PAGE TWENTY-NINE -:- -:- na- -:-e -L -:- .. -:- -:- -2- -:L -:- -:- T25 -D- -ll' -D' have classmates from so many states, and truly, it was a dignified group. llase- ball was an everlasting fad among both boys and girls, and many thrilling combats issued. We battled bravely on through fractions and decimals under the guidance of Miss Cox, Miss llaity. and Bliss lflliotte, feeling that vacation would never come. 'llhen came the exciting night in May, l'?22 when we received our Grammar Grade diplomas, which entitled us to admittance to the cherished dream of lligh School. At the beginning of the fall term of the following year, a very confused Freshman class entered High School. 'llhey were not acquainted with changing classes and teachers-but experience is a dear teacher. XYe soon learned to adapt ourselves to these new methods and became very commendable students- if l do say so. Athletics were being stressed now in lligh School, and Sock lfrvin put forth teams worthy to rival the utmost in western North Carolina. 'llhe Literary Societies proved to be an interesting feature in High School, and many enjoyable hours were spent therein. ln the Ninth Grade, we had become a real part of the lligh School, and lent a helping hand to the incoming Freshmen. The work was not hard and indeed, that was one of the most pleasant years in the entire school. This year the Sjwtliglzf, a semi-monthly paper, was organized and our -D' -D- 'D- 'D- -D' high school spirit increased. When we became -luniors our importance rivalled that of the Seniors. even Q' if we were rather demure. XYe entertained the Seniors with a royal banquet and many were the friends we made. Then came the last lap-Seniors! just the name gave us all a thrill. Une Q member was lacking, Mary XYillie McCall, who decided matrimony was better 'd' than a career. .Xlso Lena Young became Mrs. l'enninger. but pursued her last year's work as the lure of the diploma was too much. The class rings added another thrill. 'lllllf llIGllL.XNDI'iR, the annual. was another prosperous step, sponsored by the class and is indeed one to be proud of. Yarious clubs were -D. organized, such as the Bl, Glee, and Dramatic. .HX new athletic field was 4' secured, adjoining the High School grounds. Mr. Freeman was secured to direct the lligh School hand and many changes took place. ln summing up athleticsg Marion lligh has made an enviable record, both boys and girls, and this, the Class of '26, helped to do. .Xs we reach this last step, we look back with not a little regret at the good .Q- -D. old days spent, and I think we realize the value of them and appreciate the helping hand which the faculty lent us. XYe, the Class of '26, bid farewell to our school mates. and speed on lifc's journey with ever the thoughts of Success and dear old Marion lligh. + -lXl.XRG.XRlf'1' Ciuio, 'l6. ,D PAGE THIRTY Eh lil- 'Ili' 'S' 4' 'Q' Q ui -C' 'S' ' ' il' '-WW AM ,M 5Fi, , f?!lT .5 4 IQY i Y- 'CDL L Q O LALUD2 LLCQDLL gg -:- 1.1 gs- -:- -:- F I -X ERH aL. -R + -D' 'D' 'U' -G' 0 'D- 'D- -U' -D' THE JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS ROBERT VVILSUN ..... ........................

L'nifornis were issued and hard training started at once, for a game was scheduled with XYaynesvil1e on September 25 and only a little more than a week to prepare for it. We journeyed to XYaynesville on September .25 after eight days of actual practice to meet a team which had practiced for over a month and which had already played one game. In the last three minutes of play, a field goal and touchdown gave XYaynes- ville a 9-O victo-ry. One week later, a trip to Hickory resulted in an 18-6 verdict for llickory, due to the sleepiness of 1XIarion's halfbacks and ends. Then came the first victory of the season-Marion 26, lllack Mountain 6. A general improvement in the work of the team was very noticeable. Then in another heart-breaking contest. the liarm School .Xggies from Ashe- ville defeated us in the last five minutes of play, 14-2. l'oteat. Klarion tackle. made the safety for Marion, and incidentally the first point Marion scored on her new athletic field. Determined to make up for its previous defeats, the Marion team went to Klorganton with the fighting spirit which always characterizes the Klarion team. .Xlthough the Klorganton team outweighed us, although we had to contend with the tiniekeeper, the referee, the sidelines, and the town in general. we defeated them 7-O. lle it said to the credit of the Morganton team that it was not entirely responsible for the treatment we received: a coach is largely responsible for the way his team plays. The next game was scheduled with the Cherokee lndians, who failed to show up and forfeited the game 1-0. PAGE FIFTY-SEVEN Lf ea ll ,4 f-:l1-- TL 55- jiri----M :F .. e- .QFF5 1' D.xvIs .....,.

Steppe has been captain and quarterback for the last two years. He is truly the best all-round athlete ever produced at Marion High. As the team was in first-class condition, the boys had hopes of defeating Forest City. Their hopes were realized a few days later when the Forest City team, fighting stubbornly, went down to defeat 18-O. Perhaps the greatest offensive ever shown by Marion was displayed in that one game. Beginning with the ball on the thirty-yard line. the Marion team carried it seventy yards to touchdown on straight line bucks, though the team would hardly average 150 pounds. Captain Steppe was again the star, making two of the three touchdowns. All of the scheduled games had been played and the team wanted more. An all-star team was picked from the town and was defeated 26 to O, in the final game of the season. SUMMARY Marion ........ ..,..... 0 Wfaynesville ........... .........

Displaying a flashy offensive. and a defense that was almost impenetrable. they defeated Marion 38 to S. The game was not as one-sided as the score indicates. Candler scored 25 points in the first quarter, hut was held to 13 for the last three. llad it not lieen for that fatal first quarter there would have heen a different ending Io the game. Un .lanuary IU, Forest City visited us and gave us the first victory of the season, lo to Sli The game was well played and featured hy close guarding of hoth teams. Hn liriday, january ll, we iourneyed down to play the llickory lligh School. Xte were anxious to win, especially since they defeated us in football. Our fullest expectations were realized when our hoys finding themselves on a good regulation court, cut loose and piled up 51 points to 16 for llickory. Captain McCall tossed goals from every angle and amassed a total of 26 points. The entire Marion second team was sent in during the last few minutes of play. The third victory of the season came -lanuary 25 when we defeated XYaynes- ville High School 27 to 13. Captain McCall was high scorer with eleven points to his credit. Steppe was second with eight, and XYilson third with five. Coach l.ee again put in his second team and each team scored one point while they played. Came -lanuary 28 and a game with Swannanoa. Coach l.ee's quintet regis- tered their fourth consecutive victory of the season, defeating Swannanoa 22 to ll. The game was fast and well played throughout. Steppe and XYilson were stars of the game. The floor work of KlcCall and the close guarding of Little and Gillcey were noteworthy features. Un liehruary 3, the Taylorsville quintet visited Marion and the Marion quint displaying good form, registered the fifth straight victory of the season, piling up 3-1 points to lS for Taylorsville. Manager l.ittle, formerly of Taylorsville. starred in the contest. Klauney, playing at guard instead of Cilkey, showed up well. The next trip was to Forest City on lfehruary 5. llaving defeated them once, we were overconfident.

Forest City refused to let the goal count. lt should have counted according to basketball rules, and an extra period would have been necessary to decide the winner. .Xfter winning five in a row and tying the sixth, the Marion quintet journeyed to Swannanoa for a return engagement on February 9. The whole team was off form. They couldn't get the ball for any length of time and couldn't hold it when they did get it, The result was 27 to 7 with Swannanoa on the long end of the score. Came Febririry 10 and another victory, this time over Old Fort. The game was fast and hard fought from begiiming to end. Gilkey and l.ittle showed some of the best guarding ever seen on the local court. Score, Marion 14, tlld lfort 12. Suffering from overwork and the loss of Captain McCall, who was unable to make the trip, the Marion team went down before Taylorsville on their home court 217 lu 15. The game was marked by good sportsmanship and clean playing manifested by both teams. Un liriday, February 12, the lllack Mountain team ventured down to Marion for a game. Xtith Captain McCall back in the line-up and the whole team working smoothly, lllack Mountain was smothered by a score of 47 to lo. Xtilson was high scorer of the game with 17 points to his credit. Captain McCall followed closely with 16 and Steppe was third with 12. On Tuesday night, February 16, the Alexandria quintet visited the Marion cage warriors, on the home court. The home team displayed a crashing offensive and a superb defense, defeating the visitors by a score of 41 to 26. Captain McCall was high scorer with 18 points, all of which he scored during the first half. A substitute forward was sent in for him during the last half as we wanted him to be in good condition for the game with Candler, the following night. The work of the whole team was commendable. The Marion second team played dur- ing the last quarter. On Xtednesday, at noon, lfebruarv 17 the Xlarion lligh School basketball team left on a four-day trip to Candler. lYavnesville and Cherokee lndian school. The game with Candler was fast and well played throughout. The first quarter was almost over before either team scored. Then Candler scored 4 points in succession. The ouarter ended Candler 4, Marion 0. The half ended Candler 16, Marion 12. The third quarter ended Marion 15. Candler 22. Candler scored 8 points in the last quarter while Marion was unable to register a point. The second game of the trip was played at lYaynesville, Thursday, February 13. The Marion boys played well, but lacked their usual form on account of lwvins Dlflved such :i hard game the nisfht before at Candler. The score see-sawed back and forth with first Marion and then XYaynesville in the lead. The NVaynes- ville team rallied in the last quarter and defeated Marion 30 to 33. Steppe starred for Marion. Leaving lYaynesville at about ten o'clock, the team started to play the Cherokee Indians. The roads near Balsam Cap were almost impassable. One of the cars stuck in the mud at about one o'clock and it was five o'clock before it was moved. After such a trip, the team was in anything but good condition and it is not to be wondered at that the Cherokee Indians won 49 to 13.

This resulted in another walk away for Marion, 34 to 14. Then came the third game to be played at eleven o'clock Friday morning.
