June l922 foreword N reviving the old custom of publishing a year book in the Oswego High School we, the Class of '22 hope that we have established a precedent which succeeding classes will follow. Ours is the first class in the Oswego High School to publish an annual which is more than a mere pamphlet. The preparation of a book which will be a credit to the school has been the object of the Board of Editors and we feel that the Paradox is such a book. The Paradox represents an infinite amount of work, of time giver: from more pleasurable pursuits to its writing and editing. But if in so doing we have been able to produce a book worthy of the school, we are satisfied. The Paradox of '22 we expect to be the first of a series of Paracloxes. We expect to see the Paradox of '23 and of '24 and of years after that. To the class of '23 we commend the duty, the obligation, of keeping the Paradox alive, with the expectation that they will pass this obligation on to their successors and they to theirs, that the Paradox may live on when this Class of '22 is scattered to the four corners of the earth. -THE BOARD OF EDITORS.

Therefore, the history of our class is the cause and effect of it. The cause of our class is that there happened to be ninety-five students in the school plucky enough to graduate in l922. The effect is more doubtful. Oswego is to have a new high school next fallg this places us in a peculiar position. By our various activities did we prove to the citizens of Oswego that the students were worthy of a new shool, or did we treat the old school in such a cruel manner as to necessi- tate a new building, or do we appear so dumb that the public think it's about time we got a new high school? I wonder. Will you ever forget that opening day of school in September, I9l8? We were all assembled in the portable-some of us from St. Paul's, St. lVlary's, No. 6 and the Normal. And then we were summoned up to the third floor where Miss Hinckley, Prin- cipal in Mr. l..eighton's absence, explained the complicated facts about one's program. We heard some passing Seniors remark that the business course was easiest. Of course we all immediately decided that we were cut out for captains, or at least top-sergeants, of- finance. But when we came back from lunch most of us had strict orders to take a normal or college course. The dreams of drawing those pretty ovals in business writing were drop- ped for the harsh reality of writing Latin derivitives, and learning that there were two unknown quantities-X and Y-and our troubles had well begun. An epidemic of influenza broke out and we had a nice long vacation till everyone got tired of having the flu , Then we went back to school and continued our work. Then lVlr. Leighton came back from the service and we met him as principal for the first time. Then came our sophomore year with many of us still Miss Hinckley's freshy freshmen. Now we had graduated from Miss Hathaway's Cat present Miss Robinsons, room to the third floor and were now real high school students. Here we met Pythagoras-and most of us continued to meet him for some time. Do you remember the time Margaret Mylott proved her ability as a worshipper at the shrine of Zeus in the Glee Club concert in St. lVlary's Hall? And our Snowshoe Club with the dances at the Opportunity School after our hikes? At this time our boys started to part their hair in the middle like the Senior boys, and our girls began to think puffs fcommonly called Ucootie garages by our unsympathetic elder brothersl a necessity. This year we took up French and learned a new way to say, lf you please . ' 319 ons 128 flfo 'Faspioi Er - 'BEE Having suffered some casualties in Regents we arrived at our Junior year. Now we had a new principal, and l guess he didn't tell us how dead we were! He had some pep and, with all our activities started by him, the school began to be a real high school. He was a pal and was with us in our troubles and our joys. Will you ever forget Marion Hunt and Louise Cays playing Mary Pickford with their curls? By this time our boys had insisted upon long trousers, commonly called iilong jeans , and the girls came to school with hairpins in their pockets which they used in putting their hair up after they reached school. But, do you remember how they always took it down before they went home? The girls were now finding powder puffs a necessity and boys essential as a topic for conversation. The boys, down in the basement smoking on the sly, were discussing where they were going to get the price to take their latest crush to the coming dance. Meanwhile, more worthwhile things were happening on the second floor. Everyone remembers poor Happy Houlihan who was always being put out of school. But never mind, Happy started our school paper. We all gave it our support and, with the staff, made it a success. About this time Joe Hourigan began to distinguish himself as an athlete. Will you ever forget those football games over at the Fort and our exciting basketball games at St. lVlary's? Then Mr. Riley decided that we were going to have a school play in which many of our juniors participated. After this came the prize speaking contest in which two of our members distinguished themselves. Then we reached the highest stage of our school careers. We became Seniors! We spent most of the year in hard study. just before our Easter recess we noticed that our class treasury was lacking in necessary funds for our year book. An.d then didn't we hustle with our candy sales and minstrelsl Remember Tom Hennessey and all his pretty flowers and his box of sardines? Remember i'Say It With Liquoru? lwonder how jack knew so much about it. Next came the school play in which many of our fellow classmen took part. And then our second prize speaking contest in which some more of our class distin- guished themselves. Our class, in addition to other activities has produced the first year book of the O. H. S. This has been the product of much faithful work on the part of the staff and we believe that the results obtained are worthy of our effort. We've been entertained most royally by our faculty and by the honorable juniors. Now that we are graduates we look back upon our years in High School as the most pleasant years of our lives and realize that the training and knowledge which we acquired there will be a great benefit to us in the future.

'22 GIRLS li happened that in I945, generally spoken of as 45 A. V., as our sport plane made a landing in the near vicinity of the Empire State Airways Terminal where Dorothy Wads- worth was calling off the limited and local flyers to Minetto and other points of the far West, we entered Hennessey's Cream Parlors to be waited upon by Alice Wright. Behind the soda fountain was a lady we addressed as Miss Kathryn johnson. She was highly indignant and made us understand that she was now known as Mrs. Tom Hennessey. Oswego has changed since the class of '22 graduated from the old O. H. S. However most of that aggregation is still residing in this pleasant little community by the lake which Margaret Cook speaks of so often in her poems. Upon entering the radio office we were greeted by two hello girls who made themselves known to us as lna Legg and Mildred Mahnke. While talking with them we learned the whereabouts of several of the other members of our old class. i Miss Helen Heagerty is business manager of a newspaper and Mary C. Kelly and Mary Minnehan are operating trigonometric calculating machines and the latest models of type writers which type their thoughts without expending any energy upon the keyboard. That evening's l3th edition of the paper carried an article of the class of '22. The Misses lsabel and Lillian Allen are conducting a private finishing school. Mildred Baxter is teach- ing shorthand in the 3rd grade while Louise Cays has a class in Virgil in the 5th grade. It is Marion Hunt's first term as successor to Miss Leroy in the O. H. S. and Marion Galvin has proved herself a very efficient mechanical drawing teacher. Marion Gadbaw is now the proprietress of the Oswego Airplane Wet Wash and Dry Cleaning establishment. The evening we arrived we went to the Richardson Theater and much to our surprise found that lna Wallace and Dorothy Wells have the stellar roles in the celebrated play The Merry Widows . ln the cast also are Marion Crlasford, Mary E.. Kelly and Eleanor Putnam, who are well supported by a large chorus in which Margaret Mylot, Marie O'Conner and Helen Sayer are to be found. Of course we had to eat and we happened to drop into a very neat boarding house run by Mildred Allen. The meal was slightly better than those one generally gets in such a place, but no wonder!-Mary Stoke is the cook there. Miss Allen has quite a number of regular boarders, among whom Ethel Askew seems to be her star boarder, the reason being that Miss Allen now has need for a wig and Miss Askew is a hair dresser and beauty specialist. Then there is a vodvil team. They have an acrobatic act. They are none other than Virginia McDonald and Clara France. The one who seems to cause the most sleepless nights at this boarding house is Pearl Smith, now a vocal teacher who teaches only those with bass or baritone voices. Rose Bell and Alma Congdon, of the same address, went into part- nership a few years ago, starting a dancing academy. This crowd is well taken care of for Ena 319 ous cf 'azg A P RQDOX ff ' 'BZE Bonlamase's name, bearing the title of M. D., is to be seen on the next house where she has her office and issues perscriptions to the thirsty prohibitionists. Dorothy Cornwell, now a graduate nurse, lives on the other side of the Allen home. At the time of our visit Mary Donovan was organizing a girls' professional basket ball team. Dorothy Donahue is manager and Ethel Batchelor is playing center and, if my mem- ory serves me, Edna Kelly, Ella King, Alice Lavere and Ruth Cornell are also on the squad. Maybe you are wondering what became of Lucy Stevens. No, she is not married yet. She wanted to be independent and she is now the feature writer for the Ladies' Home Journal, and her side-kick of former days, Catherine Fletcher, is not married yet either. She is still HUNTing.. While searching she has taken the job of joke edit-or on the staff of the National Geographic Magazine. While mentioning those who are working on mag- azines, maybe you recall Beryl Stacy. She is now drawing covers for Snappy Stories. Bertha Medlong took over her father's business. Later she sold out and organized a company which started a department store. Ruth Larkin is employed in the cloak and suit department as a model. Helen Sanford is still serving in the capacity of cash girl, While Catherine Troy is in the drugs department introducing a new Freckle Remover. Of course an auto truck became necessary so Edith Laurent now runs the Fliv . Another department which we nearly forgot is the footwear department in which you will find Frances O'Conner selling sandals. just across from the High School there is a refreshment parlor which is quite popular with the students. This establishment is owned by Mr.- well, anyway, he married Marion Heilig. Beatrice Mundy is the waitress. That is why this place is so popular because, as the senior lads say, Although we Cantelope Sundae they may Lettuce Mundy. Q Le Moyne Zimmer and Catherine Mansfield have an orchestra of their own now. Le Moyne is playing the piano and Catherine is playing the drums. You would not be interested in the rest of the orchestra. Until the regents board was done away with Ervia Rose held down a fine position but now she has accepted the position as stenographer in the High School, succeeding Miss Fitz- gibbons.

FIFTH.-To the Board of Education of this city, we do give, bequeath and devise, to be employed for the decoration of the Ancient History Department of the New High School, a valuable speciman of Hieroglyphics, purporting to have been written in the year l922 A.

We have grown older and wiser in the four years we have been here, Here in the store house of knowledge, the school of our fathers and mothers. Many the joys we have witnessed, many the trials we have conquered, Many the friends we have made, earnest, steadfast and loyal. Narrow the path of advancement, broad the white way of enjoyment Luring us on from our study, urging our hearts to rebellion, Yet we have conquered ourselves and reward stretches dazzling before us. Glittering the highway of life, leading e'er onward and upward, Gorgeous the air-castles dreamed of-ahl may there come the fulfillment! All that is best for our youth, may the Maker bestow in the future. This is the class that's departing: many the hearts that are grieving, Grieving to think of the future, with High School a bitter-sweet memory, Grieving to think of the comrades scattered through all this broad country. Meeting no more at the threshold, greeting each other with laughter, Gone as the leaves of the forest flutter through the haze of the autumn. Ye who believe in youth that hopes and endures and is patient, Ye who believe in the beauty and strength of a student's devotion, List to the joyful hosanna still sung by each Senior-class poet: List to a tale of completion in O.

RODEN College Entrance Course French Club CIII, IVJg Ninth honor, Senior class. Phil , while in high school, distinguished himself as an honor pupil and as a witty speaker. The first of these accomplishments shows real ability which, backed by the other, will carry him a long way in later life. ERVIA MAY ROSE Normal Entrance Course Third honor, Senior class: QD fScholarshipJ QIVJ. Ervia made a higher average standing in her studies than any other girl in the class and that is saying a great deal when you consider who the others are. She has a stock of knowledge such as few people have on leaving High School. 319 X.f-o OHS ff-fe 'az 1 -Vo 'PARGDOX cfs-f--:fiazi CHARLES LEE ROWE College Entrance Course Social committee, Senior classg Sport Editor MUR-MUR qc, IVJQ Aaron Boggs, Freshman CIIIJg QB CMUR-MURJ f l- Chuck is the man you thought of up to February when- ever you saw one of those snappy sport write-ups in the MUR-MUR.

However, it is some satis- faction to place her on record as graduating with us and boost the credit of the class in that way. HELEN FRANCES SAYER College Entrance Course Chairman flower committee, Senior classy Musical Club UVJ. Helen, after taking a most active part in our High School affairs, went to Normal. We imagine that she is going to teach, Knot for long, of coursej. Probably it'll be the kinder- garten at first-yes, we wish we were young againl But all joking aside, she's certainly been a pretty nice little pupil and there's no ason whyfshe shouldn't make a nice, pretty little teacher.

Zeke was one of the fast boys around school. He represented his alma mater in the cross-country run in 1919 and l920. He was wicked with his horn in the orchestra and Ohl how those fingers could tinkle the piano! We think he would have been a huge success if he had tried out for football. Why didn't you, Zeke?

While he was with us he did good work in his studies and made a record in track. For this reason and because he is a fine fellow we hated to see him leave for Syracuse. 1 Q cr, 0 1 ANNA PEARL SMITH Commercial Course Slim was always considered as a first rate student and a live-wire backer of class projects.

STOKE Normal Entrance Course Sticky is plowing her way through Normal with a bunch of others who entered in January. The verdict of the class is that Stokey is full of fun and will try anything once. EMERSON TUPPER Commercial Course You don't want to think that Em is as severe as his first name would indicate. Nothing like it! He's quite the contrary, and a fellow to whom we are glad to give a place among us though he is not a Senior. He completed his course r this june but through a technicality was not allowed to grad- uate with us. Sis oxs E-'-'-'Pfrnpnox' if 2228 KATHERINE TROY Normal Entrance Course French Club CIVJ. If anyone has ever learned anything in high school, that one is Kay. Not quite so flashily brilliant as some of the others, nevertheless she retains firmly what she has learned and knows how to use it. We don't know what she intends to do in later life but whatever it is, we know it will be done well. DOROTHY GRACE WADSWORTH College Entrance Course When a teacher finds a brilliant scholar in her class it must be very gratifying but when to this is added the golden gift of silence we have something truly remarkable. These two gifts have won for Dot in this school of bluffing orators the respect and admiration of everyone. MILLARD E. WADSWORTH College Entrance Course Millard, who is one of our Minetto students, says that owing to the crowded condition of the schools up there he decided to come to the O. H. S.

In that time he raised 515427.72 for the IVIUR-IVIUR coffers. Ancl do you remember that it was Kirke's simple question about the Boston Plan that turned the tide our way in the debate? CHARLES LAWRENCE WILEY Normal Entrance Course In High School, as in Normal, from which school he also graduated this June, everybody knew Bub and they know him as a good fellow.

JOHN MCANANEY College Entrance Course French Club CIVJ. john combines his talent as a student with his no small aptitude in the line of business. It is a somewhat presuming task to pick a man's future, but may we suggest that he will some day occupy a good position in the business worldl Even now, we understand, he is manager of a store. John is another who completed his course but was deprived through technicalities of the right to graduate with us. We couldn't leave him out of this student roll, however.

H. S. opened its football seasoi with a 7-7 tie with Fulton High School. Early in the game Joyce made a touchdown and Brown kicked the goal. This lead was held until, with half a minute to go, Fulton crossed the line on a cleverly executed criss-cross and tied the score by kicking the goal. The first Belleville game was unsensational. The huge farmer boys held a firm line, and only the consistent defense of the Blue and White prevented them from crashing thru and increasing their score. Hourigan scored one of our touchdowns on a cleverly executed end run, and Joyce rammed the other one over after Belleville fumbled a kick-off and lost the ball. Score, I3-7. The C. B. A. aggregation was a pleasant surprise, in that they were much slower and less clever than they were thought to be. They fumbled the ball a good deal, and only showed form in their aerial tactics. The scores were made in the same manner as in the Belleville game-Hourigan around end and Joyce through the line. Score, l3-0. The second Belleville game was a delightful display of forward passing by the Blue and White. Tift starred by completing 6 forwards, three of which resulted in touchdowns He also scored on an intercepted pass. Brown crossed the goal line twice-once around the end and once on a pass. ln the first quarter Brown neglected the overhead method of attack, and failed to break through the line, which was held against all efforts by the husky Belleville-ites, who played most of their men on the line. This close defensive formation left their backfield wide open for the successful passwork that Brown undertook in the remaining three quarters. The slower country boys were swept off their feet by this dazzling form of attack, and struggled on to a 40-0 defeat. That O. H. S. and Fulton were evenly matched was proved concluslvely in the fifth game of the season, when these teams battled to a 0-0 draw. Both teams showed their best form but were unable to score. Fulton worked the ball up for a try at a drop-kick, but the ball failed to cross the bar. Twice the O. H. S. was within the five-yard line, but lost the ball on downs. ln both the tie games witth Fulton the O. H. S. did the greater part of the offensive playing, but failed to break down the opposing defence. The Fulton players deserve praise for their ability to fight in the face of seeming defeat and to come back with a keen defensive at the close of a battle. 815 TOD-KST '223 For thefirst and only time in the season the Blue and White was defeated, C. B. A. turning the trick with a 35-0 score. The field was a sea of mud and the heavier Academy fellows used their weight to score touchdowns. joe Hourigan, the mainstay of the team, gained a place on the mythical second scholastic eleven for North-central New York, an honor which he well deserved. Brown's line work at quarter-back is also worthy of mention as was Tifft's good work in scoring. The season was concluded with a banquet at Brock's Sleepy Hollow lnn for mem- bers of the team and the staff of the MUR-MUR. A delicious chicken dinner was served and a fine time was had by all. Edwin Tifft was elected captain for l922. Joseph Werner will manage the team next year, succeeding joseph Kinney who served so excellently for l92l. With every one of the regulars except l-lourigan coming back the prospects are bright for a championship season.

Four runners were entered by each school. Because of the disagreeable weather and wet pavements the going was slow. The Mexicans were equipped with spiked shoes and kept well in t ners coming in hrst. The order of the runners was: l -Cross . . . . Mexico 7- 2--Herne . . Mexico 8- 3--Kellogg . .

Manager Joyce arranged a hard schedule of thirteen games, two of them being with the state high school champions, Central High School of Syracuse, and one with lthaca, the fast southern tier team. Both games with Central were lost as was the ithaca game, but in the other games we secured an even break, winning and losing one in the series with Watertown High School and Wolcott High School, losing one to Auburn and two to C. B. A. and taking two from our old rivals, Fulton, and one from Vocational High School of Syracuse. Next year all letter men except Hourigan will return and prospects are good for the North-Central New York League Championship in l922-23. It would be neither easy nor diplomatic to pick a single outstanding star, the guards shooting almost as freely as the forwards and the whole team working as a unit. Next year's officials, captain and manager, have not yet been elected though nine letter men are eligible to vote for captain.

H. S. starting with a rush and getting into the championship figh in the N. C. N. Y. A. A. L., defeat in the final game with C. B. A. resulting in the loss of the cup to the Oswego High. The school can feel justly proud of the team, however, for they put up a fine fight before being worsted by the Syracusans. During the season we had the satisfaction of twice defeating our old hereditary rivals, the Fulton High School aggregation, and of suppressing Canastota, the other League opponent. ln the last game of the season we lost to Phoenix through careless fielding and base-running after having previously outclassed them on their own field. The team will be back intact next year with the possible exception of Ross Brown, stellar third bsaeman, and will, to judge from the l922 showing, have excellent prospects for securing the silver cup. At a meeting of the players after the final game Johnny Brown, shortstop, was elected to lead the team for the season of l923. The n.anager will be elected in the fall and Athletic Director Powers will be the new coach. He has been himself a professional baseball player and should produce a fine team from the good material he will have to work with. Need we add that in 1923 most of our League games will be in Oswego? in oxs as-f-4 'az 8 GDKEQQS 1 1:1 -f :M I , I - ...
