LEXEMGTO .-rHr.-taL, .. — FOREWORD MEMORIES! What intangible things they are, and yet how more real than any material thing. They are with us always and are more precious than gold, for when we slip into our heart’s treasury the coin of a lovely memory, it is safeguarded more surely than if surrounded by iron bars. Therefore we have worked hard to make this book something to strengthen the remembrance.; of our High School Days. 1 ! I i t i � i I . i I i I 1 t i v.

Two score and eight years ago, in the year 1877, our high school was established. From an humble beginning, with one teacher and a handful of students it has grown into a community institution. Its growth and importance has been commensurate with that of the village, in which it was founded. Its sons and daughters are scattered over the length and breadth of the globe, some six hundred in number, and embracing every walk of life. In the professions, in business, in politics, social and home life they are found. To follow the life history of every important alumnus that has finished the work from this institution would require an endless task. Back in the first fifteen years of its existence the graduating classes did not average over four or five and in the year of 1880 only one, Samuel Chappelear, now and for many years last past a prominent banker of Los Angeles, Cal., was the only graduate. Prominent among the persons, who early finished their preparatory course here, were J. W. and W. J. Dusenberry, prominent lawyers, real estate men and capitalists of Columbus. The former finished in 1877 and the latter in 1881. They are loyal members of the alumni association and always respond in a substantial way at each annual gathering. Standing out among the girls, who have graduated in that period, is Miss Mabel E. Colborn of Columbus, class of ’85. Miss Col-born is head of the office of the American Insurance Union in that city, and is said to be the highest salaried woman in the State of Ohio. A brief survey of the roster of the alumni of half a century reveals the names of a host of men and women prominent in every walk of life. Besides those already mentioned, we might refer to John F. Ward, prominent Columbus attorney, class of ’93; Charles Mc-Gonagle, wholesale druggist, Honolulu, H. I.; Commander Glen Burrell of the class of 1900, high officer in the Navy, stationed at Lake-hurst, N. J.; James B. Yaw, well knowm Columbus attorney, class of ’02; John W. Dugan, present prosecuting attorney of this county; Fred H. Tracy, Cleveland attorney, class of ’05; Dr. James Dunn, ’06, dentist, Zanesville; Taine G. McDougal, one of the most brilliant lights that has gone through the school in recent years, now with the General Motors, Detroit, Mich., class of ’07; Rev. David S. Lamb has gone through the larger schools in the east and now occupies a pulpit in a Methodist church, class of ’09; John D. Clark, of Columbus, Ohio, a nationally known musician, class of TO; Ralph W. Pyle, a brilliant young attorney rising in prominence in Cleveland; Mell G. Underwood, class of ’ll, former prosecuting attorney, and now holds the honored position of Congressman in Washington; Dr. Geraldine Courtright, class of T4, one of the young ladies who has made her mark as one of the comparatively few lady dentists in the country; James Stinchcomb, class of T4, a thorough scholar and former principal and now holds a responsible position in the schools of Pittsburgh, Pa.; Attorney Paul Tague, class of ’05, and former prosecuting attorney Vincent Tague, class of ’ll, both prominent local attorneys; Emerson and Carl Wagner and Harold Powell, all three in class of T5, have completed the law course at Ohio State University, passed the bar, and are prominent in the local field. Numerous others could be cited but the above only have come into the mind of the writer. A brief survey of the list of the alumni will convince even the casual observer that our high school has held its place with turning out prominent men and women ecpial to that of any institution of its kind in the state. A word should be said of the long line of brilliant men and women who have unselfishly given their time and talents as teachers. Often a meager salary was their only return to make this progress possible. Our Superintendents, Principals and Teachers have been examples of character and integrity. Beginning with H. F. Aucker, who is still a citizen of this town, down through the time occupied by J. C. Fowler, who for a long period molded the destinies of this institution and left the stamp of his personality with teachers and students alike. Joseph Gordon was first a teacher, then principal, then superintendent. Mr. Gordon’s success and ability as a teacher are unquestioned and many yet remember the lessons they learned from him. E. C. Bussart came here about 1909. Later he became superintendent and held that position for a couple of years. Mr. Bussart represented the modern idea in education. He did things and after he was gone many local people felt that he was not properly appreciated. Carl G. Pemberton was next in order and was head of our schools for several years. Mr. Pemberton was followed by J. E. Way, a high type of gentleman and school man. After Mr. Way retired E. C. Darnell took charge of the local schools for a period of two or three years. He had many difficulties to overcome and finally gave place to our present superintendent, Mr. C. A. Higley, who from his wide experience in men and affairs, his travels abroad and his deep insight into matters and things ought to make an excellent school man and his progress thus far has fulfilled the expectations of his friends. The writer is not familiar with all the principals and teachers that have labored here during the last half century, but among them the names of J. M. Gordon, G. A. Elliott, R. L. Druhalt, Mr. Spangler, Mrs. Yaw, G. A. Hoskinson, and James Stinchcomb stand out. Thomas W. Morgan, the present principal, came to this city a couple of years ago to teach certain subjects and have charge of athletics. He at once endeared himself to the student body and at the first vacancy he was promoted to the principalship. Mr. Morgan holds that position now and it goes without saying while he is in that office that the school will be conducted on a broad-minded and businesslike basis. Fifteen years ago the high school numbered not in excess of ninety students. It was housed in two rooms of the old building and under two teachers. No equipment for laboratory work of any sort was provided. Text book instruction was all that was available. About that time Mr. Bussart, an energetic instructor, was the first to introduce any laboratory work or actual experiments in the school room. A year or so afterwards the high school was transferred to the new building and it has been housed there ever since. Almost as soon as the new building was completed it was seen that it was entirely inadequate to furnish the facilities for the increasing school population. Teachers and students since that time have been forced to work under a severe handicap to get results in their work. The enrollment of the present high school numbers nearly three hundred. Forty-six boys and girls will receive their diplomas the coming June. This condition forced the citizens to the conclusion that a new high school must be erected and a proposition for the building of a new structure, costing nearly a quarter of a million dollars, was passed upon favorably at the last election. The site has already been purchased and plans are going ahead for its construction. It is planned to make this new building a monument to the county seat. The architect, Mr. John Q. Adams, a local boy, says that the buildings will be ready for occupancy in the fall of. 1926. The completion of this new building will fulfill a long felt want, providing modern and up-to-date class rooms, adequate and well equipped laboratories, gymnasiums, and a large and commodious auditorium, where community gatherings can be held. This building ought to be a shrine where all can repair. [EDITOR’S NOTE—We are indebted to Attorney Joseph L. Meenan for this complete and interesting history of the growth of our school. We are justly proud of such a loyal alumnus and wish to express our thanks for the time and effort hereby expended.] i i j i i i I j I i ! i i ! i Appreciation TO MISS ZETA COULTER One who has been actively interested in our welfare, a valued counselor and a loyal friend, we devote this page in an effort to express our appreciation. ; i I i i i i i i j Faculty Personnel Zeta E.

There is a spirit of fellowship and good feeling between teachers and pupils and we regard them not as half-human beings made for the express purpose of causing us as much trouble as possible, but rather as friends and advisors, always ready to help. Now as we are about to leave school, we realize as never before the debt of gratitude which is due to our faculty. We wish to express our gratitude for their unselfish bestowal of thought and unlimited sacrifices for the promotion of enterprises for our school. Too, we wish to forgive them everything—yes, even those grade cards with the scarlet decorations. Miss Wyland has seen us pass from young Freshies with all of our becoming verdure into the high estate of Seniors, through the entire evolution she has given us a good “fetching up” and there’s no one going to skip with Miss Wyland on guard. She knows commercial work from start to finish, and, successfully teaches what she knows to a score of aspiring young business men and women. Miss Weiser will be remembered by the Seniors especially in connection with American History and Government Class. We are sure that through her competent instruction the American Revolution, the Civil War and the duitie:; of an American citizen will be ours for all time. She also presides over the Domestic Science department from which delicious aromas waft about 11:00 A. M. Miss Crawford is the only remaining teacher who has been with us for more than one year. She has proven herself a very efficient music instructor. Through her efforts, N. L. H. S. took first place in the County Music Contest last year and this year made a record that we may well be proud of. At the beginning of this school term, we were greeted by an extraordinary number of new teachers but we have now become well acquainted and wish that they might have been with us longer. Misses Powell, Barker and Potter were not total strangers, however, since they were all formerly students of this school and we were glad to welcome them back to their Alma Mater as members of the faculty. Their work this year has been of far-reaching influence and they are to be remembered not only as instructors but as true friends. Miss Coulter while coming to us this year as a stranger has made an enviable reputation for herself in the short time she has been here. She entered heartily into our high school life and is an ardent booster of New Lexington High School. Although Miss People’s work is largely with the Freshman and Sophomore Classes, she is known and liked by the entire student body. She can always be depended on to display pep and enthusiasm for every school activity. Mr. Sparhawk came to us at the opening of the school term as Latin teacher but resigned early in the term and was succeeded by Mr. Parker. Mr. Parker has brought to life the souls of those famous ancients—Caesar and Cicero. LEXBSIGTOlSMNi ■A Senior Class Officers President...........................

SMITH English Course “Golden Doom” 4 Bostonian Club 4 LEXINGTOMAN, r- __■ Senior A balmy September day in 1921 marked the beginning of a famous history. The history of the class of 1925. “The Freshies are foolish, the Freshies are green, They are really the funniest things we have seen. Their ways are so awkward, their speech a disgrace They’re silliest things you will find around the place.” Thus spoke the upper classmen. Even tho we were Freshies we were well represented in all school activities, especially in football for the star player this year proved to be a green Freshman, Thomas Ackerman. As Freshmen we did not come into the lime-light a great deal but nevertheless, we were a wide-awake enthusiastic class. Next we were Sophomores and just like “hard-boiled eggs; couldn’t be beaten.” Our motto was: “Do unto others as others have done unto you.” So we immediately took part in initiating the Freshmen. This year our class was even more active in school affairs. Dominic Saunders and John Hickman represented us on the football team, which achieved great success. The High School Orchestra won honors this year and two of our members—Eleanor and Gladys, played in it. Dorothy French, Ethel Wolfe and Kathryn McCollister helped win the silver cup in the track meet. Our joy over our success of this year was somewhat saddened by the death of one of our classmates, Eva Walcutt. She crossed the bar to the Great Unknown but her life remains a living memory among us. As Juniors we were still full of pep and enthusiasm. This was shown by our activity in football, basketball, orchestra and track. History Six men went out for football, and two for basketball. Kathryn McCollister our all-around athlete, wa-� the star player on the girls’ team. Five members of the class helped compose the High School Orchestra which won first honors in the county. We were well represented in the track meet. Robinson the high point man of the year. For the first time our class was organized with James Schofield as president. The big event of the year was the Junior-Senior reception. An elaborate dinner was served and an interesting program rendered. This was followed by a dance. This year we were greeted by a new face— a girl who has proved a great help to us and who has given unstintedly of her time and energy to boost school activities—by name, Mary McCann. As Seniors we took our stand, 46 of us having withstood the “fire” that was thrust upon us for three years. To start the ball rolling George Elmer Kelley was elected president and Miss Coulter was awarded the honor of class advisor. This was her first year with us but we soon “fell for ’er” and realized that she was the one to pilot us “over the rough seas.” We chose the scarlet and grey for our class color and for our class flower—sweet peas. The Motto: “Crescat scientia” (May knowledge increase) has ever been before us. Our standing in Athletics was better than ever before. In football and basketball we were well represented, Davidson, Greene, Hickman, Saunders, Kelley, Robinson, Murphy, Rockwell and Hull in football and Greene in basketball. Kathryn McCollister again starred on Girls’ Basketball. Almost half of the orchestra was composed of Seniors. N. L. H. S. debating teams were com- posed entirely of Seniors and were coached by Miss Coulter. Both teams were victorious. This year was marked by more social events than any other year of our High School career. Early in the fall we had a weiner roast at Shelby’s We celebrated Hallowe’en by having a masquerade party at the school house. In January we enjoyed another party in the I. O. O. F. hall. Both parties were a decided success. In April the class had its first picnic—a moonlight picnic. And now our history is closed but we hope we shall have gained enough knowledge from work done and friendships formed that will fit us for history in the college world, the business world, and home world. Days may come and days may go, but we shall stop as a class April 29th. CATHERINE COURTRIGHT. LEXINGTONL-W . .-.-Itu, Class Prophecy “With a smile of joy and triumph, With a look of exultation, As one who in a vision Sees what is to be, but is not.” It was upon the fourth dav of my visit to the reservation of the old Indian Tribe of Algonsekequios, that I came upon the aged Chingmanowah, or “The Clear Light.” He was reposing upon the banks of the Pan-Kuk-Keewis Lake, gazing searchingly into the clear blue water. I had heard much about him. and his uncanny power of clairvoyance, through the Indians, who respect his years, and this supernatural perception, peculiar to him. A desire to hear the experience of my former school chums prompted me to request the exertion of his optical power to that effect. I did so, and his gaze penetrated the utmost depths of the crystal sea. After a few moments concentration, these things were revealed to me. Margaret Brickies attained fame by editing a recipe book entitled “Aunt Margie’s Goodies.” Catherine Courtright is now employed as a tight rope walker for Ringling Brothers. Mabel Combs, while quite young “tripped on a light fantastic toe” into fame as a Bohemian dancer, and is now commonly known as Gitza. Charles Donnelly is a competent salesman for Cake-Icing Beauty Clay. Irene Householder joined the movies and is an understudy for Nita Naldi. George Elmer Kelly heeded the call, and is a minister of the Gospel in the Holy Roller Church. Frances Cooper is an efficient detective for the Go-Get’em Agency of McCunesville. Mary Hummel is an Eye, Ear and Throat specialist and has a thriving practice at Goston, Ohio. Maurice Hull is now a millionaire, due to his agricultural experiment resulting in an odorless onion. Mr. and Mrs. Edgar McEhvee (Vivian Patterson) are mistress and master of a fashionable young ladies’ seminary on the Hudson. Isabelle Jadwin is a prima donna in “Aida” and is making her third tour of Europe. Pearl Sherrick is a prominent Lady Ink-Slinger in London. Francis Smith is an astronomer for Uncle Sam. His chief occupation is searching for Mars. Gretchen Stinchcomb has succeeded Cynthia Grey in giving “Advice to the Lovelorn.” Linley Feigley is head waiter at the Ritz. Dave Nash is a steeple-jack. He fell from the top of a high building and suffered the loss of his nonsense. Wilda McDonald and Ruth Deavers’ pictures are found on advertisements for Mary E. Goldman’s Hair Dye. Their now black locks are very becoming. Dorothy French is a fat bathing beauty in Christie Comedies. Franklin Davidson is a stump speaker for the I Won’t Work Society. He received his first oratorical praise while a member of “We, the Affirmative.” John Hickman is a hobo in Hoboken. Loy Greene holds the dignity of a high salaried position of street cleaner in New Lexington. Kathryn McCollister is well known because of her Latin Composition book which has been adopted for use in N. L. H. S. Irvin Lee is a professor in Greek Philosophy at the Sarbonne. Walter Hillis is now Prince of Hindustand. Rose Keiner is the only lady sheriff in Ohio. LEXINGTOMAN -■ .-aa� ■ . Paul Mace is now writing stories for the McFadden Publications. His latest one is “The Romance of Paul and Isabelle.” Paul Robinson is an elevator boy in the Decaro Art Shop. Nick Saunders and Irene Weller are married and are dwelling in the Spencer Addition of Poverty Row. Gladys Nader is a charity worker among the Esquimos. Paul Murphy is a phenomenal artist of violin. He is now employed by the Silvertone Company. Thomas Rockwell is a comedian on Keith circuit. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Reichley (Miriam Selby) dwell in married bliss. Aileen Welch is in Switzerland cultivating her voice and throat for yodeling. Isabelle MacDonald is either lost, strayed or stolen. Paul Sherlock and Marie McNulty are the sole owners of the merry-go-round with the Doodle-Doo-Do Carnival Co. Ethel Wolfe is still breezing about with her Champion (Vern). Wavalene Sanderson has taken a turn for the worst, she is now at Montmarte, in the Latin Quarter of Paris, among the Apaches. Mary Irene Bennett is giving lectures on “The Evils of Esquimo Pies.” Eleanor Selby is one of the most prominent young lady debutantes of Washington Social Circle. After this revelation, I arose. Then thanking the venerable sire, I plodded my weary way homeward, retrospective of the seeming shortcomings of some, yet at the brilliant success of others. MARY E. McCANN. LEXINGTONLAN .338 - - r 'V Lust Will and Testament of Class 1925 Know all men by these presents that we, the Class of 1925, of the High School, New Lexington, Ohio; realizing the uncertainty of life, and being of sane mind, do hereby give and bequeath:— I. To the High School in general; our ability to cut classes, to hand the teachers a line and graduate without study (if you can get by with it). II. To the Faculty we bestow such bits of gratitude as we possess, such atoms of patience as we could gather together and we hope that these will be passed on to succeeding classes in realization of the fact that many times between the beginning and ending of every high school student’s life there is a time that may be termed, “Life’s Darkest Moment.” III. To the Junior Class we will our dignity and advise them to use the same in asserting their superiority over other classes. If they do not care to don this dignity next fall it will make a brilliant addition to our caps and gowns which become yours next May. IV. To the Junior Girls we leave sharp and pointed scissors (may be found in Mr. Morgan’s office) that their locks may be kept in trim. Captain Robinson entrusts the careful leadership of the football team to Joe J. VVeiland. Captain Greene leaves the captaincy of the Basketball team to Don O’Hare. V. To the Sophomores, we do hereby give one bottle of Nervine and Spunkine so that you might have a class party next year and take some snaps for the annual. Too, realizing your possibilities, we bequeath our athletic ability—following in the footsteps of Robinson, Saunders, Hickman, Greene, Hull and Davidson—Success will be yours. VI. To the Freshmen, conscious that a system of initiation was not in evidence this year, we leave one bound volume “Shades of Sensible Sensations,” by Phaker Sarker and Merry Paddle. We recommend that this be diligently studied and suggestions therein put to use early next fall. VII. To Shorty, we leave one box, containing one telephone (with receiver), 3 gallons “Speed Devil” gas, 4 Wear-ever Tires, to complete his Sherlock Holmess outfit. We wish it strictly understood that this box is not to be opened until Sept. 1, 1925. VIII. We leave also Walter Hillis’ red garter to be put in the trophy case along with the cups and spoils of war as an eulogy of that renown personage. On account of the vast sum of money and valuable property involved, we appoint the Board of Education chief executor of this will and we hereby revoke all other wills. In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hand and seal this third day of March, in the year of Our Lord 1925. Signature of Testator Class. By Mary Hummel. Witnesses: Attorney: Joseph L. Meenan. Thomas Wendel Morgan LEXINGTOI .V Class Poem An edifice of brick and wood, A place for brains to grow; Environment, cozy, plain and neat, A place where we love to go. As Freshmen then we started in, A frightened, huddled flock, With fluttering hearts, and rounded eyes While Sophomores seemed to mock. We all would start, when class bells rang, Going through wrong doors, Longing to, yet fearing to ask Advice of the Sophomores. Ah—now, look who’s here! Wise Sophomoi'es are we. Oh you Freshies! “You’re so green.” It certainly takes us to see. Little girls are ladies now, All have bobbed their hair, Escorted by our handsome men We attend our parties rare. As Juniors then with confidence We study faithfully. Conscious of our close reward Of blessed liberty. With happy meditations, too. We think of Freshies dear. How could we progress in life, If we could not jeer? With awesome heart and misty eyes, We view our former strife As Freshies, Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors, It was a happy life. At last we’ve won and triumph O’er the toilsome years we spent. Did you ever feel as if ’twere the end, Instead of commencement? PEARL SHERRICK.

CLASS MOTTO: No Prize Without a Struggle. Junior Tribe This enthusiastic class thus far in its career has met with brilliant success altho there have been many difficult obstacles to overcome. The Junior Class as a whole has withstood all the trials and troubles flung in her path. In the autumn of 1922, there entered into N. L. H. S. a group of Freshmen as green and riotous as every other Freshman Class. We found that the upper classmen were more than anxious to direct us to Mr. Stinchcomb’s office in the basement and Mr. Morgan’s office in the attic, but we weren’t to be fooled. One of the first things we were asked to do was stand in chapel and show our ability in singing. To the surprise of many we proved equal to the occasion and sang “That Old High School Song” as it had never been sung before. This year we were justly proud of the members of our class that took part in school activities. In the track meet! What could we have done without “Cubby Hummel”? The contestant for the Spelling Contest was Leo Forquer. In music we had twenty girls in the Glee Club and Mary Greene and Uldena Stowe in the Sextette. Vacation soon rolled past and in September we came back full of determination to make a name for ourselves. As Sophomores, we filled our heads with Geometry, Caesar and History but still we were more interested in activities. Donald O’Hare, Murril Hummel, Anne Holden, Grace Paskell and Mabel Randolph represented us on Basketball teams. In the orchestra we had Mabel Randolph. Juniors! The very name tells of our dignity and high position. We reorganized our class this year and elected the following officers: President, Leo Forquer; Vice Presi- dent, Joe Weiland; Secretary, Clair Everitt; Treasurer, Mary Greene. Again the Juniors proved a strong factor in Athletics and thirteen of our class represented N. L. H. S. in football and basketball. In the County Music Contest this year the following Juniors took part: Mabel Randolph, Uldena Stowe, Beatrice Gilley, Joe Weiland and Andrew Totten. As we come to the close of our Junior year we are looking forward to the time that we may be the “Seniors” of N. L. H. S. BEATRICE GILLEY.

CLASS COLOR: Blue and Grey. CLASS FLOWER: Tea Rose Sophomore I ribe September, 1924, marked the entrance of a brilliant and enthusiastic class into New Lexington High School. Along athletic lines we showed an amount of pep and enthusiasm which made Tom’s heart go a little faster, and no wonder— well, this year we claim three of the regulars in Basketball and eleven regulars in Football. To show that we had brains as well as brawn we furnished a Music Memory team that tied with six other counties for first place in the state. Socially we were all that could be expected and our hikes and parties were of undisputed success. In our Sophomore year we continued our grand march towards the Hall of Fame. We still retain our old reputation of being the most studious class of the High School, whose members are desperately in love with all their studies. Caesar is our favorite subject for the class hour helps us to spend our leisure moments trying to absorb a few bits of the well-loved book. This class hour had aided us greatly in acquiring the gift of oratory, for we all dearly love to express our profound opinions to prove our mental capacity. With the rising of our title we also have assumed more prominence in social circles. This year we have been able to furnish even more material for the worthwhile contests and organizations. We rank among the first in demonstrations of school spirit. With the passing of this year and the coming of the New One, we are going to prove ourselves worthy of our future title, the Juniors of ’26. SANTA FE BROWN.

CLASS FLOWER: Lily of the Valley. Freshman Tribe Since that eventful September when we were given such a warm reception into N. L. H. S., a whole year has passed and we have learned that being a Freshman isn’t the worst thing in the world—we just heard child labor conditions debated. From here and there and everywhere we came and presented N. L. H. S. her largest and most versatile class. Numbering sixty strong we in September started our uphill fight against low grades, austere teachers and knowing Sophomores. By the end of the first month we had mustered up enough courage to elect class officers. Those we elected were: Rex Allen, President; Chas. Saunders, Vice President; John Wilder, Secretary; Joe Rogers, Treasurer. “By their activity, may the all around class be judged,” may well be said and proved by the Class of ’28. Our aims are high. Many have still nothing less than an A4- as their goal. Others are destined to be captains of athletic teams and come are on their way to success in music. Why such prophesying, the proof is the doing? This year in the field of sport we of the Freshie class have “showed stuff” in more ways than one. In Football, Dave Kennedy, Bob Wine-gardner, Chas. Donahue, represented the class. Then in Basketball, Lester Strawn played a clean and steady game. In other contests we have given our share of talent. In the music department, Albert Page, Edna Jones, Homer Feigley, Earl Patten, Earl Hazlett, Rexfoi'd Allen, are worthy of mention. We have done our very best in every way to help our school and we hope as we walk the paths of High School life we will be as ready and willing to meet the demands and requests of our teachers as are the Seniors of today.

Revenge was sweet and to N. L. H. S. goes the credit of handing Crooksville two defeats. The superior brand of debating exhibited by our teams won for us the County Championship as no other school in the County was able to produce two winning teams. N. L. H. S.

From this class a team of five was chosen to represent New Lexington High at the County Music Memory Contest. Santa Fe Brown, Amelia Littlefield and Edna Minturn were victors. Kathleen Conaway was chosen as their alternate. Willa McCabe made an at large County team. These went to Columbus where they competed with many winning county teams and met a glorious defeat, but were awarded pins for perfect scores in the first test. The grade team made up of Lucille Riggle, Josephine Zimmer and Genevieve Reed with their alternates, Geraldine Selby and Naomi Underwood, likewise were unable to win, but made a splendid showing.

This material, when developed, will be a real championship team. New Lex. Hi. was honored by having three men placed on the mythical all-county football team. They were Captain Robinson, O’Hare and Winegardner. Coach Morgan is looking for a real championship team for the coming season. Ends—O’Hare, McDonald, Murphy and Douglas Black. Tackles—Hummel, Green, Rockwell, Tracey and F. Davidson. Guards—Ferguson, Hull, J. Davidson, Winegardner, Kelley and Kennedy. Center—Craven. Quarterbacks—Robinson (Captain) and Hickman. Halfbacks — Weiland, Pearl Robinson, Saunders and Don Black. Fullback—Hayden. FOOTBALL WARRIORS AS WE SAW THEM CAPT. ROBBY—Has completed his second year as a regular and has acquitted himself with glory. He was the mainspring of teamwork and was an altogether ideal leader of his men. Robby seldom failed to gain. HICKMAN—For three years has showed his wares for N. L. H. S. No matter in what position he played, Hickey was thoroughly at home and always a thorn to the opponents. SAUNDERS—Who made himself indis-pensible in football last year was just as valuable this year. Nick could always be depended upon to carry the ball with the fleetness of a warrior. HAYDEN—“Chuck” fullback, was shifted back to fullback on account of his ability to hit the line hard. “Chuck” was a good defensive man. HULL—Guard, tough, hard, fighty man. He contributed his share of team work. GREENE—Big and heavy—a stone wall to his opponents. HUMMEL—Tackle, being big and heavy, usually stopped anybody coming thru his hole. Murril was a good man on the kick-off. WEILAND — “Joe,” halfback, captain-elect. Weiland played a stellar game, same as his first year. Joe showed his ability as a ground gainer. Good luck, Joe. O’HARE—“Crabby,” end, was a fast man and ranked one of the best in the county. “Crabby” was picked on the all-county team. HONORABLE MENTION—Kelley, Rockwell, Murphy, Wolfe, Don Black, Doug. Black, Pearl Robinson, Kennedy, Ferguson, Tracey, and Haffler. Elliott Welch, water boy. Football Banquet Following the football season a delightful banquet was served the squad. After the banquet a splendid program was given with T. W. as Master of Ceremonies. Capt. Robinson gave a review of the past football season following which the captain for next year, Joe Weiland, gave a talk on the 1925 season. LEXINGITMAN __.V —jeJ BASKETBALL The Boys’ Basketball Team should be given a great deal of praise considering the fact that practice did not start until the season began to wane, and too this was the first year for most of the men. The team was not composed of individual stars, with the exception of O’Hare. His best work was done as the main cog in the offense and he always aided the teamwork. Forwards—O’Hare, Reichley and Dusen berry. Center—Greene (Captain). Guards—Hummel, Strawn, Hayden, Me Mahon, Wolfe. 18 There 12 Here 33 There 14 Here 24 There 6 Here 17 Here N. L. H.

Girls’ Basketball Team When the call was sent out for Gii'ls’ Basketball we had four of last year’s team respond. These formed the nucleus about which a strong team was built up. Throughout the season the team met many obstacles but they kept a “stiff upper lip” and at tournament time proved themselves a real combination. They came thru the preliminaries in fine shape and entered the finals against our age-old foe, Crooksville. Altho Crooksville started off with a bang, true to tradition N. L. H. S. girls fought hard until the last whistle was sounded. “Peggie,” all star center, will be lost by graduation. Participating in many sports she always plays a fighting game to the finish. Holden, captain, an all-around athlete, can always be depended upon to make use of all breaks. Her fast accurate shooting will not soon be forgotten. The girl’s team at present contains fine material and next year should be veritably invincible. The team exhibitted unusual ability under “Pete” O’Hare’s direction and we are appreciative of his efforts. N. L. H. S. 9 N. L. H. S. 7 N. L. H. S. 8 N. L. H.

Mr. Morgan (addressing the assembly): We will make the chapel snort and sappy this morning. All men belonging to the Boston Club and others affected with the same weakness read this sign in the cemetery— “Persons are prohibited from picking flowers from any but their own graves.” Sing a song of six pence I cannot sing the old songs, I cannot sing the new. Miss Creep Dorf wonders how I can sing at all, When my mouth is filled with a chew. Questions to right of me, Questions to left of me, Questions in front of me, Written and thundered. Stormed at with “why” and “tell”; Boldly I wrote and well. But into the jaws of death, Into the mouth of hell, Rode my 100, in Government. Overheard during the color fight: “High school days have their delights, But they don’t compare with high school nights.” Don Bowers: Do you serve hard-boiled eggs in here? Zelma K.: Yes, old dear, as long as they behave. Isabelle J.: Poor Lester smashed his car and got pinched yesterday. Isabelle P.: Really? What was the charge? Isabelle J.: Driving under the influence of woman. DAIRY RHYMES. The pretty cow all red and white, I love with all my heart, She gives me milk with all her might, I eat it with my tart.

He painted it bright yellow, Then far did spread its fame, For it became the mascot, At every football game. Its seats are large and springless— Its tires will not hold air. Its nuts and bolts all rattle, But it usually gets you there. The engine is worn and battered, It runs just like a hearse, And if it has to climb a hill It goes up in reverse. Silent it stands in the alley, Its beauty fading with the rains, While aeroplanes above will fly— Below that wreck remains. Springtime is coming That’s plain to be seen. Even the Freshmen Are turning light green. THE IMPEDIMENTUM He failed to pass In Algebra And Geometry. Then Latin he thot to try, But he lived in horror of every class; He has a half credit today. Four years have passed swiftly o’er Thus we find him a Senior With credits a total of nine. The rest of the class Made a grade of pass But he was left behind. The calendar of time changes once more, He stands at the door With a French book in his hand. The first six weeks were one golden hour, Then came “La Tuilipe Noirre,” The class of nine is now eight, Oh, cruel and bitter fate, He has failed again! Five years he has struggled with a patience dear, Commencement day grows near, Will the goal he has sought be won? Well, we cannot say, But we stand in fearful apprehension Of graduation day. WALTER R. HILLIS. ALUMNI NOTICE In another part of this book you will find an invitation to the commencement banquet which is not to be held this year. It is hoped that a great number of the old school will be able to return for this occasion. If you find, however, that it is absolutely impossible for you to attend, do not forget to send a letter or greeting of some kind, so that your friends who are gathered there will know you are not coming.

Marg. B.—Because there isn’t room enough for him to sit down. Slowly she crept into my arms. One slender hand snuggled into mine. Her left arm slid around my neck and drew me closer. Her head nestled upon my shoulder. Sweetly, confidingly she yielded. The smoothness of her hair intoxicated me while from her gauzy draperies arose tantalizing fragrance. Closer we clung, her slender body swaying in my embrace. Closer still and then—we were awarded the gold cup for being the best dancers on the floor.—Lizzie Hill.

I turned the music while she sang Her ballads sentimental. How sweet the notes around me rang. Her voice, ah me, how gentle!! She looked up at me now and then And smiled so very sweetly, That—well, I was like other men— I lost my heart completely. “I love but thee,” she sang, and gazed At me in rapt devotion; While I—I turned the leaves, too dazed To feel my heart’s commotion. “Come Fly with Me,” “Love Is Enough,” Such were the ballads’ titles; L.ike gem proposals in the rough To me were these recitals. 1 held my peace until one night— One moonlit night of summer— She sang, “Re mine, my heait’s delight,” And catching these words from her. I bent and kissed her cheek, and said Something—I don’t remember. That settled it, and we shall wed, So she says—next September. T. J. Marg. M.: Isn’t Marg B.’s gown the last word in style ?

Down the Line With Tom and Bea. They always like to play a joke On each other, and when they do, They laugh it off, and are happy, This man and wife I write about. And anyhow at Christmas time, They said nothing about presents, For each other and along came Christmas morning. And in their house a cheerful tree. And then exchanged big packages, And little ones, and the husband Opened his first, and found his wife Had given him for his presents: An electric iron, a carpet sweeper, A large bottle of rich perfume, And a handsome pearl necklace. And then they laughed, both loud and long. And so the wife unwrapped the things, That she received from her husband. And this she found, A box of fifty fat cigars, A fine silk shirt, a smoking stand, A dozen pairs of men’s silk socks. And then a corncob pipe. And then his wife started to bawl And didn’t talk for the rest of the day. And so it goes. Miss Wyland: Dave, you should think of the future. Dave: I can’t, this is my girl’s birthday and I have to think of the present. Mr. Higley: Can you tell me anything about nitrates? Link F.: Well—er, they’re a lot cheaper than day rates. Pickel Stowe: A fortune teller told me that I had a lot of money coming to me. Margaret M.: I’d rather hear a paying teller say that. Oh, where can a guy buy a cap for his knee, Or find a key to the lock of his hair. Can his eyes be called an academy, because there are pupils there.

A few strong strokes carried him to the spot and he reached out a muscular arm to grip the poor girl who was about to sink. At this moment, her frantic struggles dislodged her bathing cap, which soon floated away, carrying with it what was more precious, her wig. “Oh, save my hair,” she cried, “save my hair.” “Madam,” replied the gallant rescuer, hauling her into the boat, “I am only a life-saver, not a hair-restorer.”—Princeton Tiger.
