Early in the fall Mr. Drews announced that assem- blies would bc in charge of a committee of teachers headed by Miss Rix, chair- man. The teachers were to plan the programs in advance and the central idea was to be student activity under teacher guidance. l Practically all meetings were conducted in the main auditorium where these weekly gatherings featured celebration of important holidays, educational talks by outside speakers, a debate, several plays and also groups of entertainers and magicians. - One ofthe high lights of the assembly schedule was the exchange of assembly programs with Sodus High School. XVe presented a program at Sodus which was well received by the Sodus student body. Later on in the year Sodus came here with a fine program built around music, and a short play. Such pro- grams should be continued as they promote a fine spirit between schools. ll F,...talfilff.fl'0fl'fTf. 112215, ill iiSf lfffT3..WH WWE i'hlyStpul1 0'1Bby' the it J ,.g u Q, s . 1 .' j ie - one zz I g c ass, a era c my ie usiness English class, a talk by Mr. Millard on his trip west, an address on Lincoln by Mr. Drisko, a lighting exhibition by the I?:ichester Gas and Electric Company, a safety talk by a welli known traffic manager, outside entertainment by profes- sional cntcrtaincrs. programs by the seventh and eighth grades, an exhibition of skill by the boys from the gymnasium classes, a travel talk by Mr. Markham and S a number of special programs and pep meetings for the athletic teams.

THE ECHO uiozuznninniwriwqbasmnwlrn--..fm..u cbn:.'an1u2unDff1uCm --ov-tw-D111 I Ifiritiviviviflif INTER-CLASS ACTIVITIES By Leo Smith Inter-class activities were greatly enjoyed this year by all the students taking part as well as the student spectators. llnder the direction of Miss llrake and Mr. Baker, a chance was provided for those not on the varsity, to engage. Practically every boy and girl in the Junior and Senior High School played some part in this program. The inter-class basketball tournaments were high spots on the program. Five teams competed in the boys' league. The Seniors won the school champion- ship with the Sophomores, Juniors, Freshmen and Eighth Gr-ide following in that order. The Seniors, captained by Ralph lilanson and coached by Raymond Defiroot, defeated all the opposers, to win the trophy. About seventy boys and girls took part in this program. Some of the varsity players acted as coaches and some as referees, giving them excellent training in judgement and leadership. A group of picked boys from the gyim classes were organized into a tumbling team by Miss Drake. These boys put on a well-perfortmed program for the school and the Board of Education. Because of their good work, they went to Sodus to put on their act. Later in the year, Sodus returned the friend- liness by putting on a play and presenting both male quartet and female sexette which were enjoyed by all at the assembly. Volley Ball was also played this year. Games were played between the various gym classes. Durwood Allen 's team stood out as the best this year. Tennis was not sponsored this year, but we hope the Board of Education will provide a courtt for us next year. To them we give our sincere thanks for the opportunity they have given us to take part in athletic activities. init? nic-iawpninie votniaxaiuinioioiqicaioio
