RILEY Principal Oswego High School Dedicated With Honor and Respect to CHARLES E.. RILEY Principal of the Oswego High School Without Whose Absolute Faith and Confidence This Hook Would Not Have Been Possible V H M f .-,-.MiQHaM Ehitnrials OUR TASK IS DONE The moment this book is in your hands our job is done. The work which we undertook last September is finished. And, since it is finished it is perhaps well to glance back and see what we have done. We have changed the form from a newspaper to a magazine form and at the time we en- countered a great deal of opposition. We sent four delegates to the C. I. P. A. convention at Madison, Wisconsin, and won an honor rating. We published school songs for use at football games. We have given more for the money then was ever given before, having ex- pended two and one-half times more than the staff of the preceded year, which in turn spent more than the years preceding. Finally, we have published an annual, replete with cuts and sold it at the low cost of seventy-five cents per copy, when most annuals sell at between one and two dollars. Our year has been one of achievement, one of progress. We summarize what we have done simply to show that the lVIur-Mur is becoming better year by year. And next year it will be so much better that the lVlur-lVIur of this year cannot compare. That is our hope and most earn- est desire. THE ADVERTISERS Our advertisers, the business men of Oswego who have adds in this book are our friends. They gave us the adds to help us, not to help themselves. A few large stores are conspicuous- ly absent, among the-m that of the one who does more for the Oswego High School than any other merchants, and yet we're still guessing as to what he ever did. A pin prick will burst any bubble. It is hoped this one will fulfill its duty. We do not chastise because a business man cannot afford to advertise or does not wish to, but we detest one who talks, but does not act in amanner sufficient to at least give his talk a foundation. We most heartily thank those who have advertised with us in this book. May your suc- cess be as great as that which you have wished for us. OUR PHOTOG RAPHER To let this book go to press without saying something about the aid given us by the IVI. S. Lovell Studio, woud be grossly unfair, inasmuch as this book could never have been either as good as, or could never have been published on time if it had not been for their fine work. The quality speaks for itself, and every picture in the book was made by the Lovell Studio. We got a very late start and in order to get us the pictures on time they were forced to work overtime day after day, and the cost was made almost negligible. The Oswego High School has a real friend in Mr. Lovell and the work of his studio is most highly recommended.

It should be possible to make enough money on the newspaper sufficient to cover the loss on the magazine. Further, work should be begun on an annual earlier in the year, contracting for adds separately so that it would not be required to fulfill the magazine contract in the annual as was necssary this year, as, in September we had no intentions of publishing our Annual. , THE PAST Together with the senior class of I92 6, the Mur-Mur staff of l925- I 92 6, is about to step into the past. Our chance is overg our day is done. lt is not for us to say whether we have fail- ed or succeeded. But we can say we have done our best. We have given the best that was in us, even to the neglect of our studies. But we end with the feelings that what we have lost in knowledge of one character, we have gained in that of another: one that will be of im- mence value to us in life. su. -tim- 's is 1 .-1-... -1. .. ... i.. -111 M... -. ... .-. ------' if,-tMl5He,MQL5A2EJ fllllur-Zlll-Iur Staff 'EE anh '27 Editor-in-Chief-Dorothy Mott Assistant Editor-James Callaghan Sports - - George Louth Jokes - Gene Smith Alumni - - - Mary Kane Exchanges - Edwin Fitzpatrick Art Editor - -------- Maurice Lester BUSINESS STAFF Business Manager ------- Edgar Hobbie iFFXAdvertising - - - Thomas McGough -I Circulation - ------- Richard Stone GENERAL STAFF Genevieve Walters, Sidney Davis, Rosemarion Fitzgibbons, Edward Quigley, 'Gertrude Weatherston, Margaret Hunter, Virginia White, Walter Fitzgerald, John McGowan. FUTURE Contrary to the former custom, the staff this year was not selected by the out-going staff through competitive writing, but the editor-in-chief was selected and has been allowed to se- lect her own staff, aided by a few suggestions from Mr. Riley, the English teachers, Faculty Advisor and former editor. Our reasons for the change are varied. ln the first place, the Editor sometimes found members on the staff with whom he found it difficult to work. Sec- ondly, the old system of competitive writing is not satisfactory in asmuch as, although one can write well, they may lack the necessary industry and hence be of little aid. Thirdly, the English teachers are more certain of the best writers than we could be, by reading one or two articles written by 'the student, and they are also more certain of whom are the most industri- MOUS.

After these brief exercises, we as registered students, shall know the Oswego High School no more, but each in his chosen line of endeavor, will begin his life's work. l presume, that never again in our lives will we be so confident of knowing all things as we are today: never again will we be so cure that, studs-nfts no longer, we are men and women fit to survive in the lifelong battle for supremacy. Different conditions will confront us and like children learning to walk, we must go slowly. ln the next few years many a fond illusion that we cherish today will be shattered and gone and we will understand that out in the world and sheltered in the school room are two different things. One is the preparation for the things to come and the other is the cold real- ity of the things themselves. We will not know how to meet these problems of the future, but if we have taken advantage of all 'the opportunities of the past few years and have come to realize that all knowledge is not upon the printed page, we cannot fail to give a creditable account of ourselves. The one and only permanent good that can come from modern education is character building, and unless we have developed and nurtured, during our High School days, the 'things that go to make real men and real women, our High School Course has been in vain. You may know Latin so thoroughly that it would be simple for you to preach an hour's ser- mon in that language of the ancients, you mav be so well grounded in the mazes of geometry and trigonometry that you could almost square the Mythical Circle, yet, in your High School career, if you have failed to lay the foundation of character of a true man or a true women, thi-s knowledge or information has accomplished for you little of real worth. We have been successful in the educational tests that tell of our ability to study and our reten- tion of the fruits of that study. It remains to be seen if we can put that eduoaton to work to our material benefit. We all have today assumed obligations which are most sacred and serious. Every facility has been afforded us: a modern well equipped school building has been the scene of our stucliesg a 'painstaking and understanding faculty has directed our studies, and fond and indulgent parents have made it possible for us to enjoy these great privileges. We must make good. First-To show our teachers that they have not labored in vain and that the work, so much of it unpaid for and so much of it unnoticed, that they have expended upon us has not been wasted. r - .. -ul -W .O 8' L f'.1 V ' ' M '1 ,-,-sMQHfM. Second-To show our lparents that we appreciate the wonderful opportunities that they have given us to acquire an education that makes the solution of life's problems so much simpler. Third-To make ourselves worthy citizens of this great country, that maintains for us free- dom, opportunity and, more than all else, an open field and a fair race in which to accomplish our ambitions. We are all eager for the fray, we leave' with regret, yet we hasten, confident and smiling to assume the more serious tasks. All of us cannot become great lawyers, great doctors or giants in the world of finance, yet there is one thing we all can do and that is, no matter where the hour may find us or what our condition when the finding comes, that we 'shall each, his own alloted task perform, unafraid and broad-minded, acting all the while as real American men and women. If we do this, with our motto, Not how much, but how well, ever before us we can well let fame and fortune go and we may all be sure that the Oswego High School past and pres- ent, graduate and scholar, teacher and principal will all be proud to acknowledge us as their own, and with pride and satisfaction will the benedicrtion come, He was one of us. To you Juniors we pass these valedictory thoughts. Weigh them well. Remember that the thing adorned is more important than the adornment. Do this and when you shall take your place upon this stage to participate in like exer- cises, you will offer to the then Junior Class a shining mark at which to aim. PATRICK HENRY HOEY, President, Class '26. ' V-PMPWHEMPWM TI-IE JUNIOR PROM. The Junior Prom of the class of '27, proved to be a greater success of any in our school's history. lr was original, both in decoration and presentation. The gymnasium was hardly to be recognized as such, when the ambitious Juniors complet- ed their task of decorating. The removing of the bleachers furnished seclusive spots which as are always welcome in a function like this. The idea of lowering the ceiling, by attractive lattice work, was greatly instrumental in making the room suitable for the affair. The plat- form, bearing the class insignia, on which the orchestra played, tended to lend a delightful air 'to the occasion. The use of programs placed all those in attendance, especially the Seniors and Juniors, for they will be able to look at them in later years and think of this, the last en- tertainment of their high school days. All present fully enjoyed the delicious punch, served in the model apartment during intermission. It is hoped that the Seniors enjoyed themselves as much as they appeared to, for the Juniors certainly put forth their every effort to make this an exceptional fete. The Seniors now have had an excellent example set for them, but it is quite doubtful that their prom can excel that of th Juniors. Great credit is due to President Albert Stub Dalton, of the Junior Class, for the success of the Prom. Charles A. Allen. of Oswego, N. Y., has been elected president of the Inter-fraternity Council at the University of Pennsylvania. Allen, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John R. Allen, is a junior in the Wharton School of Finance and Commerce of the University. ln addition to his heading the inter-fraternity body, Allen is assistant manager of the University baseball team and in his freshman year was a member of the yearling basketball squad. He is a member of Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity. Allen prepared 'for the University of Pennsylvania in the Oswego and Binghamton High Schools where he was a member of the football and basketball teams, an editor of the school paper and president of the senior class. The Inter-fraiterni'y Council. of which Allen has been chosen the head for the coming year, is the central governing body among the fraternities on the University of Pennsyl- vania campus It formulates the annual rushing period rule-s and in sreneral supervises activities which are the concern of the entire body of Greek letter societies. li P' i ' 'PP 'P P - -'l ' , !!lll,r, w ' '1 1-.-..MQBf.M 2 Glass iiiistnrg History is, according to our highly esteemed friend, Webster, the narration of facts and events, arranged chronologically. Therefore, we have endeavored to tell, as nearly as possi- ble, the various happenings that have occurred in our four years in O. H. S. That eventful first day of September, 1921 l Will you ever forget it? We had been look- ing forward to it so eagerly, and dreaming so often about the time when we should become a part of that merry, careless throng known as the high school students. Now when the time had actually come, we were thrilled beyond words. WE. weregoing to the school our grandparents had attended! At last we were somebody! It was thought for a time that the new high school would be completed, but since it was not we hurried along on that morning of our first day to the old brick pile as we had heard our brothers and sisters lovingly term it. Our feet just danced in spite of us. But despite our joy, we were a trifle frightened, too, when we found ourselves amid a jostling, laughing group of sophs, juniors and seniors, who gazed at us with good natured scorn, for we who were so self-satisfied, were 'ionly freshiesn in their eyes. We were assembed in the portable and spoken to by Mrs. Demond, but our excitment got the better of us, and what she said was unknovsm to us, so engrossed were we with the -thought of what was to happen next. lt proved to be a journey to the third floor, where we made the acquaintance of our principal, lVlr. Riley, who discoursed on the merits of a college course and urged us to take it if we were at all doubtful about what we intended to do. To be sure, WE had already decided to take the one in which mathematics and languages played the most inconspicious part. However, when we returned at noon, our minds had been changed, needless to say, unvoluntarily but necessarily. Thus began our sojourn in O. H. S. The difficult task of making a program Cdifficult since our classes had to include all our friendsl, commenced. We experienced the humiliation of being put out of classes which were too large and the disturbing effect of having to change our programs and enter classes in which we did not know anybody. We got lost and had to face the jeers of any upper classmen who chanced to learn of our misfortune. Will you ever forget how four of our girls went into that little room off lVlr. Cole's Chemistry room, mistaking it for a classroom, and they sat there the whole period wondering why no teacher came? But in time even that day came to an end and we had passed the terrifying, yet delightful ordeal of enteringl and had escaped unscathed through the thick of laughs and caustic rem-arks from those who had forgotten that they were once freshies like ourselves. Soon we made the acquaintance of x and yg of Latin derivatives and began carrying huge stacks of books from one olassroom to another. ln due time Mid-terms came and, then, finally Janu- ary. That was a red letter month for we moved to the new high school and the others no longer could laugh at us, for they were as green as ourselves in t-heir knowledge of the sit- -- -.

It was even noised abroad that they too got lost, even as we had done. With our removal to the new school came new experiences: namely bells that could be heard: classrooms through which no one passed on their way to some place else: stairs that did not creak, and floors that did not tremble as we walked over themg a libraryg a gymna- sium: an auditorium, and we who had formerly been deprived of the privilege of witnessing rhetoricals, were initiated into their delights and found them interesting to the n th degree. Assembly became the most popular word in the school and joyful were the hearts of all the students when it was announced. There will be assembly this morning, for it meant .shortened periods. Then came our Sophomore year. We were now thoroughly acclimated to our new sur- roundings and could watch with gleeful pleasure the trials of the entering freshies. With our second year came the Waterloo of many of us in the guise of Geometry and we began to un- derstand perfectly the meaning of the word flunk. Our boys began to discard their short trousers, powder puffs came into evidence, books carried home at night decreased to zero and boys and girls found the opposite sex by far the most interesting topic for conversation. Re- gents came and our number grew less and we became the envied upper classmen-the Juniors. Curls began to disappear, giving place to bofbs. Skirts suddenly elevated themselves. Vfide bottomed trousers put in their appearance and the boys began using all their pin money for vaserline. Bough's became the place to assemble after school, and we went merrily on our way wth games, dances, and parties, the only things worth talking about. Finally we or- ganized so that we might entertain the Seniors at the end of the year, and elected Fritz Pelin for our president. 'ijunior Candy Sale began ornamenting the boards, and we began to learn the swagger employed by the Seniors, for in September, if Regents were easy, we should inhabit 313, and be possessed of that long envied right of saying, This is my seat, to any Junior who had just gotten nicely settled in a place where all his friends had gathered. The Prom came and went and Regents did likewise, and then-September, l925l We had reached the climax of our school careers. We 'became Seniors! Do you remember how our girls came back to school with shingles and boyish bobs and plucked eyebrows, and our boys fairly dazzled our eyes with their Ushiekn sweaters and still wider trousers? We had earned the right to inhabit 313, which the class of '25 had willed to us, and now we could sit in the balcony and gaze down majestically from our lofty heights on the lower classmen. We began right away to show the school what the Seniors of '26 coud do, by organizing very early. We chose for our officers: Henry Hoey, Presidentg Margaret Mansfield, Vice- Presidentg -Lucille Freemantle, Secretary, and Wilbur Pratt, Treasurer. Of course with our becoming Seniors there came the need of money, so we assumed the responsibility of two ,en- tertainments in a course- of five to be given in Robinson Auditorium. However, the stud- ent body did not support these as fully as they shouldrhave done, so they were not the suc- ce-ss that we had hoped they would be. After that came a rush of meetings to decide such 1 Q 'fi 5' at ' it ' - to l -W 84 L-fa ' - ' ' T' ii' 1- ' ' 1' 1 I ff,-.MQHcMEM momentous questions as rings, colors, a motto, a flower, and last but by far the most im- portant, at ieast to the feminine members of the class, what we should wear. Also at this time there came into existance the first Chemistry Club ever formed in the O. H. S., none other than our highly esteemed Bang-Bevas, which although still in its' infancy, is already 'be- coming widely known for its' various activities in and around the school. We now decided to cram for the swiftly approaching and dreaded Regents. We were kept well in- formed of the small space between ourselves and then by the ever decreasing number adorn- ing the board in 303. We thoroughly enjoyed the Prom, which was made doubly interesting by being a program dance. We have been looking eagerly forward to the Class Day program, which is the first one in the new building at which the entire student body was present. We hope that the aforementioned student body will be duly impressed with our ability along literary lines, rea- ize our importance, and struggle to attain our lofty heights of knowledge and power. With increasing impatience and a bit of sadness we are anticipating our Commencement, which will mean the end of our high school careers. Our Senior Class besides being the first freshman class in the new building, is the largest in the history of the Oswego High School, numbering l4l, and is the second to put out a year book, fthe first having been produced in 19225. This has been the product of much faithful work on the part of the Mur-Mur staff, and the Editor and Staff hope that their ef- forts wil'l be appreciated and enjoyed as much by the student body as they have enjoyed doing this, Ctheir last service for the Mur-Nlurj. Looking back over these four years which promised to be so long and yet have been so unbelievably short, we realize that they have been very happy. the -happiest in our lives, and we hope that the training and knowledge which we have received in O. H. S. may be used to advantage in the years that are to come. In the future let us ever remember our motto, Not how much, but how well, and we shall surely succeed in any undertaking. MARJORIE.

We also leave them our great dignity and superior example with which they may awe their under classmates. To the Freshmen and Sophomore Classes, we leave our ability to concentrate and our sophisticated minds, also a good look and a little encouragement. To Miss Hinckley we leave an electric apparatus to close the door of 313. ln the future Miss Hinckley will not have to make herself hoarse exclaiming: Please close the door, Joel Kindly close the door, Mary. l To'Miss Brown we give a victrola record which will repeat for a period of forty-five minutes without interruption: Why? Why? ? Why ? ? IV' Mac O'Brien leaves his gum to Bertie France: also, if Bertie so desires it, his art in dancing. Ruth Stevenson leaves her brilliant mind to Kuke Dalton. Fritz Pelin leaves Mary Louise until they meet again. joe Farrell, jim Pidgeon, Bob Oliver, Fred Pelin, Fran O'Connor, Harry Smith and Ralph Konduct, leave to the school a sum of money sufficient to repay the damages done to the floors by their walking upon them during the last five or six years. Mary Louise Cunningham leaves her perpetual smile to anyone who has the necessary qualities to accept it . This is for the good of the entire student body and faculty as the school would be a dreary place without that smile. To some freshman, Jim Schaffer leaves his last pair of short trousers, with the hopes that the Freshie may outgrow them sooner than Nature let our little Jimmie do. To the faculty weuleave relief and joy to be ridvof us. To the future chemistry students, the present chemistry class leaves its branch of the Bang- Beva's society, to be duly discontinued. 7 ' .

The students of the present Virgil Class, bequeathe their Ponies to Miss Bloomingdale, trusting that she will distribute them to the members of future Virgil Classes. Harold Deady bequeathes to Don Stacy, his uuneathly pranks, hoping that Don will use them for the good of Mr. Fitzgibbons, as Deady tried to. Tom Farrell leaves his alarm clock to a member of the junior Class. l..et's hope that its new owner won't forget to wind the alarm as Tom has done. Bessie Fanning leaves her good luck in getting to school on time to some unlucky under classmate. It wasn't Bess' fault that she was ss so seldom late. Harold jackson leaves his seat in 313 to jack Dain, there being plenty of leg room under said seat. Dutch Schulz leaves his fighting football face to jack McBride, to be used in the Fulton and C. B.

To our newlyweds-to-be-Mr. Bell, Mr. Fitzgibbons and Miss Buttles, we hereby bequeath our sincere sympathy. Moreover, to Miss Buttles, we leave a rolling pin to be used to the same effect as Maggie Jiggs uses hers. To Mr. Bell and Mr. Fitzgibbons, we leave a pair of specially made noiseless shoes, so that by their aid they may enter late without attracting -their wives' attention. Likewise, We make, constitute and appoint the Faculty of the O. H.

C. B. A. and Fulton, their arch rivals being among the victims. The team outscored its opponents l09 to 36, and the only defeat was at the hands of Oneida, a bitter enemy. The only thing to mar the season was the lack of games, which destroyed chances of capturing the all-scholastic crown of Central New York. F 'f 'a ig: ' -1 L -trsgi fg l FOOTBALL TEAM 1926 Fm H T nm - 5 wt . . A SUMMARY OF IMPORTANT GAMES Oswego bowed to Oneida in the opening game of the '25 season, after a closely contested struggle. The game was played at Oneida ina quagmire of mud and the outcome was in doubt all the time. Oswego opened the scoring when Cofllins received a pass from Dalton and crossed the line in the second quarter. lin the third quarter, Loucks, opposing quarter- back, made a sensational run of 75 yards to score a touchdown. Then with two minutes left Oneida resorted to the aerial game, and having reached Oswego's 25-fard line, Bowen re- ceived a pass from Loucks and scored the 'touchdown to win the game. Marshall, Dalton, Dashner and Collins starred for Oswego. ln a battle, thrilling to the last minute, the Blue and W'hite eleven vanquished their arch ri- vals, C. B. A., by a I3-I2 score. It marked the first time that C. B. A. was ever beaten by Oswego on a Syracuse gridiron. Honey Marshall, with two brilliant end runs, scored both touchdowns in the second quarter. C. B. A. threatened to overcome Oswego's early lead in the second half, but failed by one point. Bob VanBuren pflayed a great game for his team, outclassing Ben Weiss in many ways. The team enjoyed a fish and chicken dinner at Three Rivers after the game. Oswego won a decisive victory over Fulton in a sea of mud by a 20-0 score. It was a hard defeat for Fulton, who were very optimistic before the game, but they never h-ad a chance with Dashner, Dalton and Marshall making many long gains, and VanBuren breaking up al- most all their plays. Nar McCarthy played an exceptionally good game and tore off many yards, besides starring as interference for his teammates. Honey Marshall scored two touch- downs, while the other one was made by McCarthy. Oswego resorted to straight football tactics and held Fulton powerless. Determined to avenge a defeat of the year before, the O. l'l. S. football team played a su- perior game of football and crushed the Rome Free Academy warriors, 24-0. Rome never dangerously tfhreatennel to score, while Oswego could not be stopped. The game was play- ed in Oswego before a large crowd. Dalton, Dashner, and Marshall starred, while Mezza, of Rome, shone briliantly, making many long gains. The football team of '25 were presented with gold fodtballls for their fine work, and were certainly well deserving of them. Each letter man received one, making I9 in all. The long wished for trophies were received with great joy by the players and the whole student body rejoiced with them in their success. The Athletic Association donated the gifts. Each player was also given a five-pound box of whipped cream chocolates by Long's Candy Works for trimming Fulton. . i Bob VanBu-ren, star tackle of the O. H. S., was placed on the second all-scholastic team of Central New York, which was picked by Spracuse sport writers. Honey Marshall was also given a halfback berth on the third team for his fine work during the '25 season. jack Dashner, quarterback, and Fred Collins, end, were both given honorable mention. 1 Qi?g?1.f ' F ' i ig? -'1 W 'M'. -sl -W 5 a fn ' 'M ' 1 l-.....MfI2Rf .g Q1 . , 2 Hugs' Basketball Coach-David E.

HAVE VERY SUCCESSFUL SEASON Winning I8 games, tying one and losing but I0, for an average of .6-43, the Blue and White quintet of I925-26, enjoyed one of the most successful seasons a basketball team of Os- wego High has ever had. They outscored their opponents, 692-569. Manager Dalton ar- ranged a very strenuous schedule and the team met some of the best teams in Central New York. Oneida, Auburn, Central and the Alumni, all strong teams met defeat at le-ast once at the hands of Oswego. The team also conquered Fulton, it's bitter rival, both at home and in Fulton. However, they were not able to stop the fast C. B. A. team in either game. The Aquinas Institute, of Rochester, was given a run and won by a narrow score. Oswego met Oneida three times this year in basketball, due to the fact that they tied for first place in the league and a play-off was necessary. All three games, but especially the last, were very exciting. Oneida won the series and represented the North-Central League in the sectional tournament at Utica. The first game went to the O. I-I. S. five who payed the best game of their season that night. The game was at Oswego, and the score was E11-I7. The whole team played to- gether and displayed clever passwork. Dalton starred on the offensive, while Collins and Farrell with I0 points apiece starred on the offense. In the second game at Oneida, Oswego was slaughtered by the attack of Oneida. The score was 34-I6. Oneida led all the way, and Oswego never threatened. French, Loucks and Rose shone for Oneida, while Dashner worked best for Oswego. The play-off game, at Sherrill, finally went to Oneida, after two extra periods, 24-22. The gym. was packed with many roote-rs from each city. The score at the end of the regular playing time was 22 all. The first extra period did not decide anything, but in the second extra period, Dungey slipped away for a basket. Oswego had hard luck, for Oneida made many freak shots, and three baskets were also taken from Oswego by the referee's deci- sions. Each team was in the lead several times and the outcome was always in doubt. Loucks with 7 points, and Dungey with I4 started for Oneida, while scorers for Oswego were shared by Dashner, lVIars'hall, and Collins. I ' 'f 1.3 X ia -9 W I gun. A 0 Q- 'I-:i'l:,., .ffl In the first battle between Oswego and a Cortland High School basketball team, the Blue and White players lost 23-l5. The game was at Cortland and Oswego was behind in alll stages of the game. The second game however was a little different. Oswego deter- mined to revenge the defeat, played superior ball in the first half and led by several points. But in the last half, they fell down and Cortland, staging a thrilling rally, tied the score I3-13. ln the first extra period, Cortland got two baskets but Oswego quicky followed with four points and the period ended I7-l 7. Then in the- next period, Oswego got the jump with a basket but just as the whistle was about to blow, Cortland tied the score with a basket. At this point, the officials decided to leave the game a l9-l9 tie. ln a hectic battle, the O. H. S. quintet trimmed Central High by a score l4-l2 and averaged its double defeat of the season before. The score at half time was 7-7 and the whole game was marked by the close guarding of both teams. The honors for Oswego were evenly divided. , However, the second game, played in the Boy's Club at Syracuse, went to central. The score was l9-l4 and this game evened up the series. Although Central did not play well, the Blue and White players could not get started. Hageny starred for Oswego. Playing very clever basketball, Oswego High held the strong Aquinas Institute Team of Rochester to an l8-ll score. The Aquinas were runners up in the National Catholic Championship Tournament at Chicago and everyone expected Oswego to be swamped. However, they played evry cleverly and were on even terms with their opponents in all the periods except the second. The game was played in the Big Acre court in the Rochester Armory as a 'prliminary to the Rochester-Colgate game. Collins and Dashner played best for Oswego while Kennedy, all-state forward, and Fllynn starred for the Aquinas. For the first time in many years, the O. H. S. and Normal basketball teams met in a three game series. The series excited much interest and proved to be very successful as well as very thrilling. Alll were close games but the High School managed to eke out two victories to win. The opening game' went to the High School 23-15. Oswego took the lead early and were never herded. They rolled up 6 points in l minute and 50 seconds and seemed to sweep the Normals off their feet. Hageny and Marshall starred for the High School while John Brown played well for the Normals. The second game was very fast and exciting and went to the Normals 20-l 7 after an extra period was played. The Blue and White Five led at half time l l-6 but the Normals came back strong to tie the score I5-I5 at the end of the game. ln the extra period, Dalton made a shot from midcourt to put the High School in the lead but the Normals 'so-on followed with two baskets and a foul to win. Collins starred. The deciding game went to O. H. S. quintet 25-22 in a very close game. The high school would have been badly beaten had it not been for Jack Dashner, star forward, WEAR Q3 4 'T- ' 11' - ' 'T' 'i'- 3 ' ' '- 'i 1 I I ff.-.MQHf.MEA29l who scored I7 points. He had been held in the preceding games and in the final game let loose and he could not be stopped. The Normals fought hard to win especially near the end but failed by the narrow margin of 3 points. The last two games were- handled very successfully by Eddie Kearney of Syracuse and a large crowd attended each game. At the end of the basketball season, Jack Dashner, star forward, was placed on Roy Fair- man's all-star team picked from the stars ofCentral New York Public High Schools. He was given great praise by Fairman and was very deserving of the honor. He also made an all-star team picked from the best basketball 'players of the state who were three letter men. Jackie plays guarter-back on the football team and is a clever performer at short- stop on the baseball nine. After the close of the season, the basl-:etbal team attended a delightful banquet held in Syracuse by the North Central Basketball League. Teams from every city in the League were represented and a fine time was had by all. Daniel Chase, in charge of all athletics in the state of New York, spoke on sportsmanship and was very loudly applauded. The trophy for the winner of the league was presented to Captain Rose of Oneida and the Sportsmanship trophy, the first of its kind, was awarded to Sherrill High School. Short speeches were made by Captains Collins of Oswego and Mesmer of C. B. A. After the banquet, the team went to the State Tournament at Archbold gymnasium and were well pleased with the results.

ATHLETIC TEAMS The big reason for the great success of the O. H. S. teams can be traced to their coach. With what seems to be poor material he has at times formed a championship team. Oswego High School owes its present eminent position in the realm of scholastic sports to his faithful work and ability.

They won 3 games, lost 3, and tied 2 for a percentage of .500. They outscored their opponents I34 to I06 and the only mar of the season was their defeat at the hands of their Normal sisters. in the opening game they defeated Pulaski girls, l8-8. The court was small and hindered the O. H. S. girls, but displaying fast and clever pass work, the Blue and White sextet was never threatened by their opponents. D. Abbey with 8 points, and K. Ravas with 9, starred for Oswego. The O. H. S. girls easily conquered the Mexico girls in their second game. The outcome was never in doulbt and the final score was 29- 8. The game was played at Oswego. The passwork of the Blue and White team was the outstanding feature of the game. D. Abbey with I9 points to her credit, and K, Ravas and M. Carter were the luminaries for Oswego. ln their series with the Normal girls, the O. H. S. team did not show up so well. They played hard and did everything to win, however, and won praise in their defeats. The first game was very exciting and which finally end ed in a ten to ten score. The second game ended I3-9 in favor of the Normals. The game was close, however, and was very interesting. Nl. Carter with 7 points, starred for the High School, while D. Smith with ll, was the bright spot for the Normals. The third game of the Normal series and the last of the season, again wenlt to the Normals by a I6-8 score. Tlze outcome was never in doubt. as the Normals got an early lead and held it. M. Carter for the High, and D. Smith and M. Hennessey, of the Normal, starred. l taglgeg l 'I IVEI3SVEl A. hit safely I3 times, while Oswego only could get 8 hits off Allen. Oswego made many errors, everyone of which accounted for runs, which proved costly. Allen struckout 9 Oswego batters, while five C. B. A. players fell before lVlcHenry's slants. Dashner with 3 hits and ac- cepting 5 chances without an error, was the star of the game. He was the cause of three of Oswego's runs and stopped many C. B. A. rallies. George lVlesmer, C. B.

Riley Captain-joseph Griffin Insignia Winners Joseph Griffin Crawford Coad Bill Tebeau James Dalton For the first time in the history of the High School, Oswego entered a golf team in two matches. The first was a dual match with Vocational High, of Syracuse, on E.merick's course near Fulton, while the other was a league meet with teams from Sherrill, Oneida, Fulton and Oswego competing. The team lost both times, but showed up very well, considering that it was the first team to re-present the O. H. S. The first match went to Vocational after a hard battle. Tebeau was the only O. H. S. play- er to win, but Coad was low with a 52 score and was beaten by but one stroke. Tebeau won by 3 strokes. Willis, with 45, was the low man for the day. In their second match at Sherrill in a league meet, the Oswego High golfers fini-shed last. Crawford Coad, of Oswego, shot an excellent 48, to tie for third low score, but Griffin re- quired a 55. Oneida won the meet with 90, Sherrill had 94, Fulton was third with lOl, while Oswego piled up l03. Menze Root, of Oneida, played best, with a brilliant 4l, on a par 36 course.

Manlius ................................................... ......................... ? The O. H. S. track team in their first meet, did not score a point due to the stiff opposition and lack of practice. The first meet was an interschollastic meet, held in Archibald Stadium, Syracuse. Teams from all over the state were represented, and there were numerous stars among the entrants. Many Oswego men came near placing, but lost out by a few seconds. Schenectady High won the meet. , For the third successive time, the O. H. S. track team captured first honors in the annual North-Central League Meet. They piled up 47 points, and their closest opponents were Oneida with 41, Sherrill with l 3, and Fulton had 9 points. The Blue and White athletes won five first places and placed at least one man in every event. Oswego won the relay race with Oneida close behind. Honey Marshall, with first place in both the l00 and 220-yard sprints, was the star of the meet. Louth, Roden and VanBuren were the other first place winners for the O. H. S. team. 4 ln the sectional meet held at Syracuse, Oswego broke away from their opposition and turn- ed in 9 out of l l possible first places. All those coming in first scored the right to represent Section 9 in the state meet held at Cornell. The only events that Oswego lost were th 440- yard dash and the relay. ln the 440, Robinson, of Central, nosed out Ed. Burgess, of Os- wego, and in the relay, Central finished first, leaving the weak Oswego team, far in the rear. Oswego scored 59 points: Central, 409 Fulton, 9, Vocationa, 7, and Mexico last with 6. Honey Marshall and Paul Roden both turned in good marks. Honey did the century in I0 seconds flat, which is remarkable time, and required only 22.2 seconds to run the 220. Paul Roden made a leap of 20 ft. 4 l-2 inches, which woud win many scholatics meets. The fol- lowing men composed the team, which represented Section 9 at lthaca: Paul Roden, cap- tain, Honey Marshall, Dricolls, VanBuren, Louth, Gleason, Wade and Pasiak, of Oswego: Robinson, of Central, and the Central High medley relay team. it -EARN Q3 4 WVHJ.

Galraith Ray Stoke Neil LaCasse The first Blue and White tennis team to represent Oswego High, lost in the first round of the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Tennis Tournament, held in Syracuse. The teams represented were from Section Five. There were but 4 teams: Oswego, Canastota, Central High and Utica Free Academy. Being the first team, they were not expected to do much, but their showing completely sat- isfied all the followers of the team. ln the singles, L. Galbraith lost to jim Kelley, of Canas- tota, in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3, while Ray Stoke and Neil l..aCasse, doubles team, were con- quered by Utica, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. Oswego High was also represented at the Central New York junior tennis tournament held at Manlius. The team consisted of Galbraith, Cracker McDonald and Ray Stoke. At this meet the team fared a little 'better however, with Galbraith and McDonald lasting un- til the 'fourth round. Stoke was conquered in his first appearance, when he was matched against Johnstone, of Manlius, a very clever player. Galbraith was finally defeated by Davis, of Central High, while McDonald was subdued by Behm, of Central, who reached the finals. Davis won the championship by defeating Behm, his teammate, in straight sets, 6-3, 6--4, 6--3. THREE MANAGERS ARE ELECTED FOR THE I926-2 7 SEASON BY TI-IE STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION The Students' Association elected Robert Marshall, manager of the 1926 football team: Timothy Mahoney, manager of the '26-'27 basketball team, and Dorothea Hunt, manager of the '26-'27 girl's basketball team. All are very capable and deserving of the positions. Marshall defeated ,lim Dalton, while Tim Mahoney nosed out john Kenefic, for their posi- tons. Dorothea Hunt defeated Dorothy Mott by a very close margin. The managers have al- ready started their work and will doubtless prove very successful. O. H. S.

Q1 itiarharnmia nf iliarharg The story of the opera is as follows: Barbarossa, a renegade Greek, has made himself rul- er of the Algerian pirates. Commodore Decatur, of the United States Navy, goes to Algiers to inform Barbossa that the United States Government will no longer pay tribute-money into his fathomless pockets and that he must sign a treaty no longer to molest United States' ship- ping. Decatur falls in love with Althea, Barbarossas daughter, but Barbarossa wishes her to wed the Bey of Morocco. lim Crow, Decatur's colored servant, fills Barbarossa's ears with tales of the great business success the Greeks have had in America. Barbarossa calls his pirates from the sea and they open restaurants, candy shops, bootblacking stands, etc., un- der the guidance of Jim. jim at the same timeis winning all of Barbarossa's money teach- ing him the American game of dice. I Barbarossa eventually becomes angered at losing money and at the same time losing his revenue from his pirates who now refuse to divide their profit with him. He rebels and is about to cast Decatur, jim and Ferdinand Cofficer of a captured Spanish shipj, into prison when his plans are frustrated by the arrival of the French consul. I-le informs Barbarossa that forty thousand French soldiers have captured Algiers and that the only way he can es- cape with his life is to abdicate his throne and leave Algiers, taking the Bey of Morocco with him. This leaves the lovers to follow the dictates of their own hearts and all ends happily-even for Barbarossa and Mulai Ahmed, Bey of Morocco, who decide to go to America and open a Greek restaurant and hire Jim to cook for them.

The chief excuse for the existence of the Oswego Hi-Y Club, is to implant in the minds of High School boys, high and lofty Christian ideals, and in this the club ranks second only to our churches. The purpose: To create, maintain and extend throughout the schools and community high standards of Christian character, is the keynote of the club. Realizing full well that one of the most important needs of the high school youth is the knowledge of the various industries and professions, the Club had a speaker eve-ry Friday night from one of the various industries in the city. The Club was addressed by Charles E. Riley, F. B. Shephard, R. F. Burnett, F. R. Burnett, R. D. I... Taylor and other leaders of the city. George E. Burgess, Secretary of the Y. M. C.
