XYith two previous years of training in the school, these freshmen were sure of a great victory. ln order to make a name for themselves in the literary contest, they gave a play in the ampitheatre, entitled XYliat Happened at l3rent's, directed by Mrs. Taylor. :Xt the end of the first heat, the freshmen were not dis- couraged. In 1928, only thirty-three contestants entered the race as sophomores, Mr. Brown was their sponsorg Robert Jackson, praesesg Drury Scott, sube praesesg -lennie Pugh. scriba et praefectus aerarii: and Margaret Davies and Kenneth Speece, consulores. In the nrst lap of this heat. the contest- ants were unfortunate to lose one of their trainers, Miss George, who left the school in the middle of the year to he married. ln token of their ap- preciation of Miss George. the contestants presented her with a silver sugar bowl and cream pitcher as a wedding gift. Our new trainer was Miss .Bp gm ...... ya ck .... l 1 9 3 1 ...y-3 CM ...... Page twenty-one THE INDIANIAN Albertson. ln the third lap of the heat, the sophomores again tried their ability in the literary contest by giving a play at convocation, entitled Simplified Commencement at Montpelier. After this success the athletai decided to rest. and. to pass the time, they gave a big Yalentine party in the school building. ln lU2'1, twenty eight contestants entered the third heat of the race with new energy after a three months' breathing spell.

Seventeen, a four-act coinedy, based on Booth Tarking'ton's popular novel of the same name, was under the direction of Miss Lillie Albertson, linfflish instructor and faculty adviser of the Qenior Llass. As the result of 5 . her effort and the co-operation of the cast, the play proved a great success. W'illiani Sylvanus Baxter, Don Hawkins, the love sick, seventeen year old boy who wanted a dress suit to wear when calling' on his lady friend play- ed his part splendidly. Nr. and Mrs. Baxter. XYilliani Salyer and Lillian Hurl- hert, portrayed some of the difficulties that the parents of a seventeen year old son are bothered with. Martha Dorsey as lane. XVillie's little sister, a lover of bread and apple sauce and brown sugar, created much laughter, as did Genesis, VVillian1 Schuller, the negro handy nian. Lola Pratt, May Parnell, the baby talk lady was excellent in her characterization of a girl who wanted a great many admirers. May Pareher, l.ueille Fox, capably played the part of Lola's host- ess and girl friend. XYilliani XVharton, as Johnnie NVatson, Max Peterson, as ,foe Bullittg and Arthur Carnes as VVallie Banks, took the parts of the other admirers of Miss Pratt. Uonald lfawkins as George Crooper, succeeded in sweeping' the baby talk lady off her feet with his fast talk. Ruth Trant as Ethel Boke and Crystal Cale as Mary Brooks played their parts very well, while George Sills as Mr. Parcher, May's father, used profanity very effeetiyely to express his opinion of the baby talk lady . 1 9 3 1 Page tltirfy-eight ' THE INDIANIAN , . , W , , p,,.-,,-,.-, ,,-g, ,--r ,---r Y 4-H YIY, Mila- P i I: l S 1 1 L ,ll I 1 fl-llf' J l1ll 'i l. l ' Z I l l jl l J ' ,432 f I 4 ' AQ - i P it .-.

It was a comedy drama of American life, depicting the joys and sorrows, and the temptations of a small group of governmental employees working in a post office in a small c'ty in the middle west. 'l'here was the stern in- spector, Ray Nollerg the officious postmaster, Raymond Sillsg the busybody mail clerk. Arthur lrwing the ambitious young clerk who yielded to temp- tation and robbed the postoffice, Melvin Masong the kind-hearted old man who carried the rural route, Russel Trant. the raw recruit, Golden NValker3 and the noble-hearted, plucky. little stamp clerk, who bravely stifled her own feelings and lix ed for the advancement of her friends, Dorothy Kitterman. Steve .'Xudaine. Melvin Mason, the hero of the play, had been living beyond his means and was deeply in debt. He stole two fifty-dollar bills from a letter, but soon repented hfs rash action. The postoffice inspector arrived hot on the trail of the thief. -lust as Stexe's guilt had been estab- lished, old R. lf. D. , Russel Trant. a kind-hearted old man. the rural free delivery carrier. came forward and assumed the guilt. Years before he had robbed the mails, was sentenced, and served fifteen years in the peni- tentiary. XYhen he was sent to prison, he had a baby boy, but, when re- leased. he was unable to find him. He now discovered that Steve was his son and resolved to keep him from following in his father's footsteps. liatherly love prompted the self-sacrifice and made him happy in giving his boy all he had in this world to offer-his liberty. But through the pluck and sagacity of Kate Kenyon, Dorothy Kitterman. the little stamp clerk, neither Steve nor his father were required to suffer the penalty of Steve's rash ac- tion. .Xll ended happily, and Steve. Kate, and old R. F. D. lwith his faithful old mare, llessl went out to a homestead in Montana to begin a new life, free from temptation and care and out of the bonds of Civil Service. Uther members of the cast were Geneva Baker, Mrs. 'leffsg Mary lirances .'Xrduser, Miss Goldstein: and Martha Shadday and Golden XYalker. the comedians of the play. Two very clever vaudeville acts, Sing Something Simple and Duo Dance, were presented, Doris King, Leota Hart, Dorothy Cale, Louise Cale, l'aul Cale, llill Cale, Vaughn Hoover, Arlen Pftts, VVilliam Hender- son, Margaret Ray, Geraldine llc-dwell, and Dorothy Helton sang' Some- thing Simple .

Diary, this is Ig our last year of high school. Right now f? the kids aren't very stuck up, but I sup- pose that comes as we realize our position. ' Eilggilll fgiyl Boy, this certainly was a tough day. It - . IL seemed as though it would never pass. F: ge ,Y TEMQER Uh. yes, one thing more: dear Diary, Z 65 f iv we have a new teacher. Goes by the name f X of :Xrbuckle or somethin' like, and boy! He looks promising. No foolin' or kiddin, him! . IS.-VVell. Diary, the school is all started and now, the juniors are somewhat and mildly interested in just who will be the ones to publish the Crier this year. So today we found out just who was who. And imagine, the Crier is to he stenciled again this ycar. XYell, the staff seems to be pretty capable with the possible exception of one or two. However, the seniors feel that the group as a whole may be able to publish the Crier with the seniors, Typing II. class, I should say, aiding them by doing the hardest part. But the juniors can well prove their ability as salesmen as they will be trying to sell their Crier next. Calls for more school support! OCTOBER lf3.f.Xh, at last a relief! To be perfectly frank with you, Diary, my opinion is that if this Teachers' Institute hadn't happened along about now. they would have had to shut Clown the school: the students were all about ready to . pass out. Of course the seniors could have 'igggf 2 held on, but the rest were showing unmistakable ' ' l signs of great distress. 23.-More rush! The cast for the operetta Av!! ,if was chosen today. Now for the continuous fz grind till it is over. The name of the operetta 0 R is Miss Cherryblossom. And guess who is that particular young lady. XYell, Diary, you aren't a very good guesser for t'was none other than Peg Jones! Imagine! It's just too funny. A red- headed 'Tap girl! Boy, a wig will certainly he necessary. Among other familiar faces was Kip Bcdwell as the old 'lap counselor The operetta must be a success, for almost all the glee club members will be in it either as Americans or as Geisha girls. Page fifty-eight ...... THE INDIANIAN ZS.-Oh. Diary, we had our pictures taken for the annual today. Such excitement! And believe it or not, Lorne Hurlbert broke the camera. but Mr. Ozaki ha1l prepared for just such an accident so the damage was re- paired and all the rest went over big. liverybody tried to look nice. 31.-Diary, I almost missed my talk with you, but wait till I tell you the reason why! You'll forgive me, l know, but here is the cause of all the excitement-XYe had our first basketball game this evening. XYe played XYinchester and got our toes tramped on. Of course this is our first game and a had start makes a good finish, so we aren't at all disheartened. just wait and see, Diary: we'll take the tourney yet! NOVEMBER 4.-And now for the big struggle! Try- outs were had the other 1lay for positions on the annual staff, and really. it's quite interesting. Qf course, all couldn't get on the staff. but it's chosen. and the list was posted today. And such a staff!

The business manager is none other than Margaret Davies. with Clyde Keith for her assistant. 1Step aside boys, for the girls.l The literary staff, supervised by Jennie Pugh and Margaret Miller as her assistant, is just as capable of taking care of its share of the work as the business staff. And now a word for athletics. Gerald Shannon was very appropriately chosen to represent that department, as everyone knows Gerald's weaknesses con- sist of two things, Dortha XYilliams, an1l athletics. :X few more competent and incompetent we1'e added. making a very, very capable staff. Next i11 line is the big Annual drive. 7.-And once again we play basketball! This time the Roll Red Rollers didn't roll quite enough and as a result-well. what would he the result? T told you the boys would make 11s proud of them. 12.-efhllfl what a relief! The big night of the operetta is over, and everything went off just grand. A few of the leads forgot, but the audience never tumbled, but went away loudly proclaiming it a masterpiece. Maybe that is a bit exaggerated. but it was equivalent to that. Any of the cast can be proud to say he was in it. Miss Crain is a shade grey-headed over it all, but she will soon recuperate, with all our success 'neverything. 14.-XVell, Diary, another victory was added to the Xl. H. S. basketball boys' list. Fairmount decided to pay us a visit: and we were courteous in every way but one. Vie let them have first in all but the game. 1 9 3 1 Page fifty-nine THE INDIANIAN 26.-NYhoops, Diary. Thanksgiving time and a little period of rest for all concerned! The Thanksgiving program at convocation was surely grand. If the little fellows keep on, they will really be able to put on some- thing that the President himself would appreciate. 28.-Diary, what a night! Our boys are wonderful, marvelous! XVe actually beat our old rival, Hartford City! Think of it! Cif course it was something to be proud of and called for a celebration. XXV: had a big bonfire up town. Boy, it was great! Some Hartford girls attempted to drive up town, but they soon shook their heels of Montpelier dust. DECEMBER X T 15.-How time flies! Today the cast was 1 im chosen for the junior play. I guess they are Ai, really going at it with all ears drawn back. Gee, Qfff f ff it seems just a short time since we were in the ff 1 C . same state of excitement. Qne certainly does . - learn to regret that old days pass so quickly. 22.-Yvell, the Girls' Reserve Club seemed to have done the thing up proper. They gave a big party this afternoon for all the girls and lady teachers, tno boys or men allowedj and what a time we had! Gee, gobs of fun were found to be stored away in the teachers: it all goes to show that one can't judge another by his position. The club gave us apples, and they were good, too. XYe played some games and An enjoyable time was had by all present as the old saying goes. 2-l.-The day before Christmas! Tonight Christmas Eve! But most of all-a whole week's vacation! Think of it. But our convocation today was grand. As its contribution to the program, the Huntington Street School gave some jolly songs, and the youngsters were darling. The Main Street School gave the sweetest play, but here's the big sensation. The Dramatic Club represented the high school and gave a play. en- titled 'ZX Christmas Mixupu. There were a lot of impossibilities to the play as: Yaughn Hoover as Santa. and Martha Shadday, his wife Ca darling coupleyg Dorothy Kitterman, the mother of six children: Arthur Irwin, one of the children, young and inexperiencedg Melvin Mason, the oldest child, but a believer in Santa, and Buthene XVright as ten years old and wanting a doll for Christmas. Diary, is it any wonder the play was a scream and a source of great amusement? 1 9 3 1 Page sixty A SSE' hiya THE INDIANIAN jgff H123 JANUARY 2.-Diary dear, I have neglected you for some time, hut it's still vacation and rp that surely accounts for it all. However, l just came from a hall game. XYe played Z, Liherty Center. hut it seems the boys must have played themselves all out on the Hart- J, - vs? ford game and then proceeded to forget .vl ,':',- f how to play. Hut they will snap out ot it. ,, I ' fi J f This is just a temporary rest. ' X ll 5.-Yacation is over and wt-'re hack at .V , school again-to take up the old grind. But, - - really, it is a pleasure, just to hear the , ai' teachers growl at us. lt's funny how a X y 'AP person misses Miss Cogswell's demerits, if A dear ol' Brummy's Get Klovin'l no loafin' in the corridors, Mr. .fXrhuckle's Pipe down. too much noise. and all the other characteristics of our dear teachers, The teachers keep insisting on re- minding usof exams in just three more weeks. There will he the time the students will groan and wish had things, hut there's no use crossing a hridge hefore you come to it. 9.-Another defeatl But such a game. XYe played 'lonesboro tonight, and were heaten hy only one point. lt was certainly a wonderful game. in all senses of the word game bloneslioro hasn't lost a game this year, and we had our closest score with them. That is something. First they were ahead a point and then we were ahead. .Xltogether it was a good game: the hoys will soon pull out of it and we will start struttin' again. XVait and see. 16.-And so we seniors have had our time to show ot? and it seems that Montpelier is heginning to wake up to the fact that they are really very fortunate in having such a group. Our .-Xnnual Staff program went over great at convocation. Hut they say Pride goeth hefore a fall, and much to our sorrow, we found that out as the hoys strutted over to lgefne and came hack wiping their eyes. l0.fVVell. Diary, hlue Monday once more. And honest to goodness. all you can hear from the teachers is tests. tests, and more tests, T do declare if this keeps on, everyone will he distracted. 'lust imagine how hard a person works, weeks ahead to get out of one day's work. Students are funny creatures. .Xnother thing that is driving everyhody 'igeunfyli is those juniors, .Xll you can hear around the school are the strains uf Sing Something Simple. No matter where you go, first, second or third floor, you hear them. ,H ...... 29 1 9 3 1 ,M ...... H, ,li ....... 29 ,la .... Page sixty-one THE INDIANIAN Diary. will the time ever come when those juniors will cease to be such nuisances? 21.-XYell, at last the juniors have had their say, and what a relief to everyone. The hats must be taken off to them, for their play was excellent. Miss Nelson is in line for congratulations, as she is the cause for all the success, It must be admitted that everyone had the idea that the cast wasn't very well chosen, but I guess one cant be judged by outward appearances. Russel Trant must be complimented on his acting, and I'm sure Golden and Martha are great comedians or else they must really be in love. All the rest of the cast were precious. I have only one criticism to nialie and that is, the juniors are so stuck up over the fact that they put on a really good play that they spoil it all. 23,-Thank goodness, today is over! lioy, it certainly was a terrible day. Of all the growling and grumbling one certainly hears it on exam day. And if the teachers ever get It from the kids, they certainly get it on that day. I really do believe, Diaiy, that I gut a dirty deal on some of my subjects. but I suppose one must keep his mouth shut and take what the teachers see fit to give him, as it doesn't pay to say anything and get them sore at one. I het they dread that day as much as the kids do. FEBRUARY IS.-And so, Diary, the Farmers' In- stitute is over. The students took quite a part in the program. Thelma and Yaughn lloover sang a good song. That is about one didn't hear them quarreling. The ad- vanced shorthand class trooped merrily the first time they have been together that i 6 lb Y' U Q ye Y down to try their first experience of taking down speeches, hut, alas, after a day's time, Miss Norton was the only one that could transcribe her notes. The Glee Clubs sang and received their due compliments. The worst of it was the Dramatic Club. They gave a play and Martha Shadday brought forth some of her special wise-cracks, VVhich made the students laugh with glee. It was, all in all. quite a successful day. 20.-IVe had a very interesting convocation today. The Kiwanis Club had charge of convocation and they had the Boys' Glee Club sing. Mr. Peterson gave a talk on the Psychology of Success, and it was great. Not one of the students went to sleep, which is yery unusual, as Montpelier high school students have an aversion to speeches and immediately proceed to go to sleep when they are present while one is being given. Now, that's giving quite an honor to Mr. Peterson and he deserves it. Nat Coffield and ,M .... 1 9 3 1 ,E ...... 29 Page sixty-two THE INDIANIAN his playmate.

In- diana in New York harbor, where I met Treva Bedwell, reporter for the New York Times. Marguerite Fitch! she exclaimed. VVhere have you been? Oh, 1.111 a missionary. I've been in the wilds of Africa converting the heathensf' -Xfter some delay I took a taxi to the Esterbrook Hotel in New York. XYhen I turned to pay the driver, to my surprise I found myself face to face with Cliffton Parnell. Inquiring about his work, I found that he had be- come a partner of Ninos and Andy of Fresh Air Taxi Cab fame. I stepped from the taxi and went into the hotel. After I had registered, a bell boy took my bags and led the way to my room. :Ns it is customary to tip the bell-hops, I handed him a quarter. Ile tipped his cap, and by the Fuller llrushn hair cut, l recognized ,lohn Garrett. ,Xfter lunch I decided to take a walk. As I was passing a large theatre on Broadway, several girls from Ziegfeld's Follies came out, among whom I saw Leona Neff. I began to feel the pangs of hunger. A hot dog stand! .Iust the thing. To my astonishment, under a large sign, Jackson Hot Dog Stand, sat Robert ,lackson peeling onions. Hullo, Bob. I said. lIow's business? Fine, he cried wiping his eyes. Meet the wife. YVhy, hello, Elaine, Heard from anyone at home? Yes, I received a letter from Careen Smith, or rather Schwarzkopf now. She says it's awful to have to live on a farm and milk cows all the time, She says Margaret ,Tones is in Chicago selling her latest sensational song hit, 'His Mothers False Teeth YVill Soon Fit YVilliel' and that Buth- ene YYright has a job in Hartford City. VVhat's she doing? I asked. Oh, she's chief eyebrow yanker at the Ugly Mug Beauty Shoppe. Do you have Margaret Davies' address? Yes, I think so, she replied. Here it is. Miss Margaret Davies, The Davies Freckle Factory, Detroit, Michigan. They say she has a monopoly on the world's supply of unattached freckles. She ought to, She had plenty of capital to start with. Say, did you know that Euzie Shannon went to Chicago?l' No, did she F I asked in surprise. Yes, she's a night cluli queen at the 'Magic Lantern. ' I-low weird! YVell. I must be going. Goodbye. and I strolled down the street. Hffxtral Fxtralu cried a newslioy on the corner. All about the big fight. Read how Clifford liledwell knocked Max Schmeling out! After securing a paper, I sat down on the curb to read. Mrs, Floyd Morrical, formerly Miss .Iennie Pugh of Montpelier. Indi- ana. will speak at the VVonien's Service Guild tonight, I-Iow funny! Dortha XYilliams, noted opera singer, sues composer. 1 9 3 1 Page sixty-fozw' THE INDIANIAN I turned to the advertisements. Buy bigger and better tombstones-- Robert NYearly. If you've lost a dog, you may find him at our dog pound-Frank Rains. I leafed through the paper. XYhat's that? XYorld's greatest humorist. Claude Colman. will write for this paper in the space formerly filled by XYill Rogers. I folded the paper and stuffed it into my pocket. I then went back to the hotel. As I entered the lobby, I heard a jazz orchestra in the dining room, and upon inquiring what orchestra it was, I found that it was Lorne Hurlbert, crooning tenor. and his Pittsburgh Papas. Before I could pay my hotel bill, I had to go to the bank to cash a check. I nearly ran over a man selling oranges on Market Street. 0ranges, lady? he asked eagerly shaking an orange under my nose. ,-Xs I began to study his face more closely, I recognized under the beard and spectacles Drury Scott. XYell. I'm not so spry as I once was. he said, but I'd just as leave be here as all over the world as Margaret Miller is. She runs a bus-line from here to Africa. So you're not playing basketball any more. I hear the old team have all quit, but I haven't heard what Gerald Shannon is doing. IIe's a boy scout leader.
