UJcu}, feaeJz 9 i 1924 EVEN IN 1924 my student leaders governed me through a council. IT LOOKS SMALL but my band played on till it became a 90-piece outfit with smart gold and blue uniforms. HERE ARE THE CHARACTERS in an early play of mine. Some of you may recognize Mr. Edward Travis, local sports commentator, sec- ond from the left in the second row. WHAT ' S MISSING? Can you find the sta- dium? the armory? the wings? 5

luA, 9 l tlte Waif, 9 Jloaked THIS THE WAY my faculty looked in my early days. Some of the faces are familiar. My principal, the late Dr. Fred M. Alexander, is fifth in row one; Mrs. Mae Marshall Ed- wards is sixth in row one; Miss Ethel M. Gil- dersleeve is fourth in row two; Mrs. Lalie Webb is second in row three; Miss Eline Krisch is third in row six; Mr. Otto Weiss is last in row six. MY GIRLS were real sportsters even way back then. The first in row two is one of my pres- ent teachers, Miss Amanda Gray. TIMES HAVE CHANGED, haven ' t they? This is my stadium! See the football players carry- ing the yard sticks? 4

Site Me Qn Lu For twenty-five years I have been kept alive not only by the generations of youth who have spent their allotted times within my walls but by the con- tinuing faculty of devoted teachers. Among this faculty, twenty-five years ago, was a teacher of mathematics who is still with me today as Dean of Girls. By her devotion to her chosen career, by her understanding and sym- pathy and by her exceptional ability, she has won the respect, admiration, and deep affection of all. I honor myself more than I compliment her when I dedicate this story of my first twenty-five years to — Miss Ethel M. Gildersleeve 6
