The Juniors entertained the Seniors with a real sailor's banquet. Ships was the theme for decoration and entertainment. Captain Milford Batten acted as toaslmaster. Nothing can put people in a merrier mood than song, so under Miss Boette's direction, we sang Capital Ship. Then blow ye winds, heigh ho! A-roving I will go. Among those not present was one who worked to make the banquet a success and then became very ill two days before it. Kathleen Christian was to have given the address of welcome.

CHAIRMAN, members of the faculty, and fellow-students: ei It is said that every rose has its thorn, every Joy has its undercurrent gig of sorrow: certain it is that the January Class of l927 finds the pleasure of achievement dimmed by the severing of school and class companion- isp ships. To the shortest path and the longest lane there comes an end : k?11!3Sk-T inevitable change brings the sweet, sad word-farewell. We leave our high school with a deep appreciation for the advantages it has given us. We are standing before a door which will soon be closed behind us. But before the latch of the door is closed, we pause to challenge you who receive our heritage. You are a part of a great educational system. It is seeking to give to you a three- fold development-to send you from its halls upright in character, vigorous and healthy of body, and alert and trained in mind. The schools of our country, only last year, spent over two billions of dollars to make this aim a reality. This is your heritage, an opportunity to receive training which will Ht you for the great battle of life. What use are you to make of it, is our challenge to you? The world today is calling more than ever for men and women of character, of attainments, and with a spirit to do. Whether you can accept that call depends to a great extent on the use you make of the opportunities that are now yours. page twenty-nine -THE PARHISCHAN- A CHALLENGE TO YOUR HERITAGE Your life as high school students is short. It seems but yesterday that we entered as freshmen, yet today our student days are over. Opportunities which are now yours will tomorrow be the heritage of others. lt is a duty to your school, to yourself. to accept the responsibilities that are now laid at your feet. To assume command of the obligations, which were once ours is your privilege. What use you will make of them, only you individually can determine. , ,, Z The record of your achievements we will watch with the greatest of interest. If it is one of successes and failures, remember that it is running true to life, and is giving assurance that you will be fit to meet the experiences of life. Success brings pleasures. Enjoy them. Failures sometimes bring discouragements but by him who can build in the failures of the past the secret to future success is realized. It is the hope of the graduating class that each individual record will clearly show the development of a strong body. It we bear in mind that a very large percentage of the applicants were rejected in the early days of the past war, because of physical defects, we at once realize the necessity of training in this phase of work. It is your duty as students to accept the responsibility to develop to the fullest extent your physical character, to take part in all activities which will aid in this development. The school has provided for your needs, their usage is your responsibility. Your record as a student here should show the development of a trained mind. Facilities have been placed at your disposal which will make it possible, courses have been carefully outlined, and able instructors secured to assist you. The world is in need of more intellectual leaders and more trained units. lt is feeling the need of millions of educated hands to run the Wheels of industry, but there can be no educated hand Without a trained mind. After your work is completed here you will be called on to do some of the things that have been done before, but you will be expected to do them better than they have ever been done before. To be useful is to be the test that society will place upon us. You are to be measured not by what you have, but by what use you make of it, and that will largely be determined by the working of a trained mind. Here again the responsibility is yours, the school can but supply the tools. It is your duty to your school, to yourself, and to your country to fit yourself in rnind and body. Surely the great heritage which is now yours is not deserving of less.

Grasp the arms of your seats firmly and prepare yourselves for this pitiful outburst of profane and 5QV 5.X' robust eloquency. We felt honored when we were first asked this gil jest, but after several attempts we have decided that only fools should attempt such a hazardous proceeding. We thought surely that would eliminate us, but we were told that, that being the case, we should quality in every respect, which shows that we are held in high esteem by our classmates. Moses Shedan has decided that studying andigraduating early in life is detrimental to one's health, so he has decided to ease up on his studies and graduate next June. The Travel Club was unable to leave on their proposed trip to Siberia on account of a heavy fog across the English Channel. Coach Bailey remarked that it wouldn't surprise him to see natives of W. Va. growing web feet, it has rained so much lately. Here is something we overheard in the corridor the other day: Teresa Hull: Did you know that we have a family skeleton? Mary Boltz: Yes, I saw her in a bathing suit last summer. Kathleen Bibbee will sing a very pleasing ballad at the l'State theater next Tuesday night, entitled She'll never miss her tweezers 'till her eyebrows meet again. Jack Maddigan reports that The Close Shave at Razor Gap, by Gillette, has some cutting remarks, but is a keen story and is not a bit dull.

His father gave him a quarter and told him not to acquire any more debts. Since we feel poetic at this time, we will endeavor to write a few lines, as Longfellow would have said.

CShirley McManus rosej Teacher: HDO you think you are a dumbell, Shirley? Shirley: No, but I hate to see you standing there alone.

Somebody once said that all good things must come to an end, and of course this jest is no exception. So. as the fisherman said when his bobber went under, this is where I draw the line. CLASS POEM Four happy years! How soon they take their flight. Dear friends, our high school days are past, And now, into the busy world we're cast. Before us lies a goal--but at a height Which to attain, we must use brain and might: To climb steep cliffs: to jutting crags hold fast Until the summit's reached at last- The topmost peak-shining-ever bright- Oh, P. H. S. you who put on our feet Wings, and placed the staff of knowledge in our hands, You bid us reach the heavens and on Time's sands Write your name with our own. Now we meet To promise you, who gave us clearer sight, That in your light we too shall see the light. MARY M. ATKINS page thirty-four -THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS WILL Students, Faculty, Friends, and Blockheads: We, the January class of '27, of Parkersburg High School, City of Parkersburg, County of Wood, State of West Virginia, United States of America, about to pass out of existence, knowing ourselves to be of sane and sound mind, do make our last will and testament, bestowing our few unimportant gifts upon the.schQol and occupants thereof. We bequeath to our dear and ever unforgotten faculty, a delightful dream of the future with us gone. It has been said that dignilied seniors are difficult to manage. Are we right, Miss Kerr? Next, we leave to our dear sweet sister class, June '27, our dignity and all our privileges, also our profound admiration of their splendid record in the West Contest. To the Junior class, we leave our ability to graduate. May your class be as worthy as ours has been. We leave to the Sophomore class the pleasure of spending two more delightful years in ll9. To our darling little freshies we leave our deepest sympathy for the next three years. May they never need it as we did, To the future football team we leave Williams' ability: we could not induce Graham to surrender his.

Julia McCluer asks us to leave her beauty to Elizabeth Judy. We leave to our successors the one hardest thing of all: The place in the hearts of our dear principal, Mr. H. W. Piggott, and Daddy Steele. Miss Bonnie Kerr, our beloved sponsor. has ever had a large space in our hearts, also. In witness whereof, we the January class of '27, have to this our will, set our hand and seal, this twenty-first day of January, anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven. Signed: WILL ROGERS O. O. MCINTYRE IRVIN COBB page thirty-five -THE PARHISCHAN- ALICE SIT BY THE FIRE THE EVENING of January 14, 1927, the midyear Senior Class of the Parkersburg High School presented to a large and appreciative audience .fl '?' q'! uL Sir James Barrie's delightful comedy, 'iAlice Sit By The Eire. The cast was well chosen and, under the capable direction of Miss Winifred Cox. gave a creditable performance, I Mary Bowser was charming as the adorable and whimsical Alice. A pleasant and expressive voice added greatly to her unusually good acting. Augustus Pahl made a splendid Colonel Gray and looked quite martial in his uniform. John Ault was excellent as Steve, the family friend. Mary Boltz as Amy Grey , and Josephine Gain as her girl friend, A'Genevra , gave correct imitations of Hstage-struck and romantic girls. Nancy Dawley as the jealous nurse, Desmond Ruppel as A'Cosmo Grey , and Mary Atkins as Richardson , the little serving maid, provided the comic element. Ada Nicely was very pleasing as the dainty little parlor maid. The stage settings were exceptionally artistic. The Iirst act showed the living room in a comfortable English home. The chintz-covered chairs and large sofa placed in front of the open fire-place, together with the inevitable tea table, created an unmis- takably English atmosphere. Alice Sit By The Eire marked a new departure in the character of Senior plays and the midyear class of '27 is to be congratulated on its happy choice.

S., is to be a busy and lively one, as is usual. To begin with, some afternoon in the last week of May, probably the cgi 25th, the class will run Cin automobilesj to some point in the surround- Zl ' ing country and partake of a picnic supper and its attending fun. We feel Ia 'ikwro J 'a sure that these quickly flying hours spent on the picnic ground will long be remembered by the members of the June class of 1927. Next in the week's leading activities comes the quick and snappy comedy, 'AKempy , the class play. This production, the resume notes, is electric. The current of humor running through it all is sure to be shocking. So we quickly pass on from that night, the twenty-seventh of May. On Sunday evening, May 29, we pause for our time of rest. At that time we shall listen to the Baccalaureate sermon preached by Rev. C. H. Pinchbeck of the First Baptist Church. His subject is to be The Road to Enthronementf' ' On the evening of the thirtieth, we are to witness one of the fastest and most thrilling horse races ever to take place around the race track of the gymnasium of P. H. S. This big race is to feature six participants: Failure, Honesty, Ability, Friend- ship, Knowledge, and Success. Kenneth Leech, one of the jockeys, lets us know They're Off. During the race our attention is attracted to four especially enthusiastic fans-Arthur Workman, Kenneth Tomer, Harry Wright, and Edgar Drummel- who voice their excitement in song. Then Mr. Piggott recalls our attention to the horses by letting us know VJhere They Are on the Stretch. After a few other interesting attractions Kathleen Christian, another jockey, shouts A'Success Wins. At that time we shall know the race is over. During the races, we are to be served with a sumptuous dinner. All are sure to agree that we have had a very exciting evening. June 2, at l':45, we are to have class day exercises. This afternoon also will pass quickly for it is one of the few times when we are privileged to wear our caps and gowns and say, Out of the way. l am commencing! In the evening we are to be in evidence for the last time as distinguished members of the student body of Parkersburg High. Some people say they felt like crying when they Hcommencedf' but we can't say that we are so sad, for we are a busy crowd. Just think of the gala event which is waiting for us on the next evening, June third-the Alumni Banquet. Two banquets in one month! That surely is enough to hasten the end of our days. That glorious night concludes our journey through this fast moving institution. Now, if this account seems rather vague, remember that the moments are flying and our heads are whirling-you'll know how it feels when you get wheels of your own. page seventy four --THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS ORATION 1927 THE HERITAGE OF YOUTH Mr. President, Members of the Graduating Class, and Friends: C4 A f-Aw E are gathered here today on an occasion which will long be sacred in the T54 hearts of aspiring youth. lt is a day of which we have expectantly Q ag X ' T dreamed and concerning which our imagination has played with almost childish fancy. Ear beyond our ability to realize-indeed beyond my power to describe-these good old school days have wrought many ,J 'UP changes in our lives. These changes have been so subtle that we have scarcely noticed them coming. They are vital changes nevertheless, and because of such, we are prepared for at least a beginning in the program of our lives. Without these changes, we might have existed but we would not be prepared to live. Happy is that young man or woman who during these days has believed these opportunities to be that which a kindly Providence has bequeathed to him or to her as the heritage of youth. As we come to this day a feeling of accomplishment surges through our veins. A memory of the long, hard road which we have traveledg the tiresome application of mind and body in quest of truth, the endeavor to discover for ourselves a fuller understanding of life itself!-all these constituted a real struggle which will not soon be forgotten. And yet today, conscious as we are of something attempted, something done, our hearts beat fast with a sense of victory. It is in the light of this victory that the sacrifices which we have had to make are counted as inconsequential in com- parison with the enrichment of life which is experienced. In the true light, this is a day of beginning rather than finishing. Commencement Day is a happy phrase for such a day. And yet I dare say we are not thinking of these days of beginning. We rather think of them as days when we have reached the goal of which we have dreamed and for which by patient endurance we have labored hard and long. lt will be a sorry day for us, however, if we are to live in the tomorrows merely to boast of the achievements of yesterday. The past is to prepare us for the future and the glory of our today is to be found in the larger duties for which we have more adequately been prepared. But, fellow-classmates, all this preliminary preparation has been for one reason: So that we might accept to an advantage, the heritage which Providence has bequeathed to us, the heritage which comes to all alike regardless of position or standing, the heritage which many times decides the destinies of men, the heritage of youth, the heritage of going on. It is Htting for us to recall some of the opportunities that lie before us as young people. First of all, We have fallen heir to an unfinished task. Sorry would be our plight today if all the work of the world were done, if all the battles for right had been fought, and if there were no unchartered seas ahead of us. But fortunately such is not true. The voice of the unfinished task thunders from out the unknown days Go forward, young men. There are great achievements ahead. In medieval times the navigators sailed about the Mediterranean Sea but they were very careful not to go farther than the Rock of Gibralter. What was the result? The discovery of vast seas in comparison with which the Mediterranean seemed indeed small. Shall we as young people be content to drift about in the Mediterranean page seuety-tive -THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS ORATION 1927 THE HERITAGE OF YOUTH of our lives? Shall we accept the challenge of youth and recognize the unfinished task and do our share, no matter how small it may seem, to make this task complete? Then will we find happiness! Then will we have a spirit of true accomplishment and all because we have accepted our heritage! No less inspiring to us are the opportunities which we have today for adequately equipping our lives to accept effectively this heritage of youth. No army of American youth ever went forth in conquest with more resources behind them. No student has ever entered college to find as much knowledge at his hand. No author has attempted to carry on his work with as great an example of literature before him. The advance of educational opportunities has reached almost unheard of heights. The knowledge of medicine is the background for the almost unbelieveable surgical feats which are performed on every side. The advance of transportation has brought the four corners of the earth into a neighborly union. Yes, many accomplishments have been brought forth during the last generation, which fact demonstrates that We can accept to the fullest degree this heritage of youth. Yet, in spite of these great advancements, in spite of these untold accomplishments and phenomenal feats-our heritage, fellow classmates, is to use these advantages only that we may further advance the work: our heritage is the heritage of going on. Life is a great conquest into the unknown lands called life. We must accept the charts of the last generation and push on to lands yet unknown. The faithless, however, will make little advancement towards the successful completion of the unfinished task. The most advantageous use of our opportunities demands the faith to do the impossible, and the courage to see the thing through. The song of the Panama Canal Builder should be that of the youth today: Have you got any seas that they say are uncrossable? A Have you got any mountains they can't tunnel through? We specialize on the wholly impossible, Doing the things that no one can do! Let us today at the completion of our preparation, fellow classmates, accept our hertitage, let us recognize the unfinished task and enter into the labor so nobly carried on by our forefathers, who after years of fruitful toil have thrown down the gauntlet to the youth of today. If we accept the challenge, and with courage launch out into realms yet unknown, We, too, shall make our lives sublime, And departing, leave behind us, Footprints on the sands of time. And let me recall to your minds, that the greatest book is yet to be penned. that the most inspiring sermon is yet to be preached, that the most successful surgical feat is yet to be performed, that the widest river is yet to be bridged, and that the greatest invention is yet to be brought forth. And to us, the youth of America, falls the greatest heritage which Providence can lay before us, the greatest heritage which man can bequeath to us, the heritage of Going On! page seventy six -THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS PROPHECY-H 1927 Parkersburg, W. Va., June 4, 1937. Dear Jessie, You should have been here for the wedding of John William Dudley and Helen Kramer. You know that most all of the class of '27 was invited to attend. The bride looked lovely in a gown of green lace over red satin, which was especially designed by Dorothy Poole, who now has an eclusive shoppe in Mineral Wells, W. Va. The Maid of Honor was none other than Nlartha Lee Wiley, who wore a handsome costume of pink muslin. The bride's maids,-all present day society buds, who followed in couples, were, Sheila Elliot and Mary Wolfe, Mildred Kincheloe and Alberta Ruth, Helen Pilcher and Kathleen Brininstool, Thelma Hodgkiss and Margaret Shannon. The best man was our old friend Edward McGrew, who is now selling washing machines. The solo, Oh Promise Me, was furnished by Charles Casto, who really has a most unusual voice.

Va. Mary Elizabeth Summers, Daysie Sylvester, Ruth Tolbert, and Florence Thomas are selling toothpicks in Greece. You will perhaps think I did nothing else while the reception was in progress but gossip about the members of old 1927. This is quite true, as it was delightful to be home again after ten years as Society Editor of the Cairo Daily News, and hear all about the boys and girls with whom we spent so many happy years. I know you have been in California for so long, entertaining Mary Pickford and all of the other movie stars with your harp that much of all this has escaped you, and so I am passing along to you all of the i'news. Write me all about yourself soon, and tell me any news that you think might interest me. With much love, Lois. page seventy-nine --THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS J EST DOC CASTO BOB HAYS To the warden, guards, and inmates: After much thought from the trustees of the institution, we have succeeded in getting the jest written of the ones whose sentence expires this time. The ones who are lucky enough to finish this time are really lucky because there are some who will be here for some time to come Qunless miracles have failed to ceasel. But my real object in writing this is to tell the students, and also Jack Alexander a few things which they may never be able to see inside these walls, as these sights may be gone by the time their term is up. This has been a rough voyage for the most of us, in fact, Emily Neal says that the roughest voyage of her life was on her pony through Julius Caesar. I read in the paper that there are a lot of crooks hanging around Moundsville. They should all be dead by now. Pete Steer told me that the Swedish people were the smartest in the world. I asked him why, and he said that even the kids over there could speak Swedish. The water lapped melodiously Against the high white cliffs, Two Ivory crafts dipped o'er the swells, Two merry dancing skiffsg Our hero's heart filled with the scene He raised his voice in song, And o'er the enameled mountain tops His chant rose clear and strong. He sang of the woods, the dells, the iields, Of each beautiful plant and shrub, And by his song the neighbors knew That Stevens was in the tub. -1.01 Will miracles never cease? A'Shady Israel is at last graduating. Darkness, darkness and stillness pervadedg outside the moon shone serenely through the treetops. The ghostly hour of midnight approached. All at once a deafening crash was heard. G-g-g-good n-n-night, wh-wh-what was that, Lois, Pete whispered. Only father dropping a hint, was the calm reply. 'AVenedia Wildt says that Caesar's last words were, tut, tut, Brutus. This bit of verse was contributed by our fellow classmate, Ed. Smith: 'Twas a balmy summer evening, And down by the old mill stream Ran the lady that's known as Lou, You're a better man than I am Old Black Joe. page eighty -THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS J EST Across the bridge at midnight, said the ant as he crawled across the false teeth. Gene Bartlett is training to be a barber. The other day I asked him for the cause of falling hair. And the answer was, 'AGravity. The Freshman's song on the way to study hall, i'Just Before the Battle, Mother. The difference between a goat and a human is that a goat can chew and digest any book and that's something few of us can do. We hear that Henry Ford's collections of antiques is the most complete in the world. Nope, not yet, Henry, there's still the Little Kanawha Railroad left. There are some promising young Valentinos in our class. For instance, there's the bashful boy with the beautiful eyelashes, Darrel Hamric, who has quite a harem. We'll bet that Milfred Batten will be glad when Darrell gets out of the way. Grub Gordon wishes to thank the teachers for the faithful service he has received for the last eight years. - In days of old when pirates bold Were wont to rove the bounding seas, They'd stab your back, ' They'd steal your jack, They'd even steal your B.

We know a certain little shiek in this class who got twenty dollars donated to him for being a student and an athlete. Do you? he also robs cradles. Some of these prospective G. M. T.

Doc says that his girl is such a blank that she thinks a taxi-cab driver is a new kind of golf stick. The following bit of verse was contributed by none other than Carlton Welch, who is now a Junior II: Gimme a kiss, our hero cried. 'AI'll give you a kick, cried she. He kissed her willing lips and said, The kick's in the kiss, I see. .10- Our idea of nothing to do-telling hair-raising stories to a couple of baldheaded gents.

Don Worley took his uncle down to Vanity Eair the other night.

We found as years went by on wings, So much to do: so many little things To learn, to fit us for this change In untried paths-'so new and strange. lf we could look into the future, as we stand today Upon the threshold of life's door, Prepared to meet whate'er the fates may have in storeg I wonder would our courage fail, And would we falter, weep and wail: Or would we say, A'When put to test, Full well, I'll strive to do my best. We've worked together long old class of '27l 'Tis true we feel tho' tasks are done The goal we've reached today has not been lightly won. Yet as we View the past, we know We'll keep the faith, Old Green and White, With this our watchword Do the right.

Then there came a change. She was no longer a mere thing but a functioning part of the family. '1 rue, she was still so young that she dared nothing but entire obedience, yet old enough to be able to appreciate the wonderful achievements of her elders. When general receptions, evening entertainments and the like went on at home from which she was excluded, Hope could do nothing but wonder and admire. Right then and there, though, there started and grew in her a desire to do just so herself, and dimly she began to realize that far in the future she would. And with this realization there was put forth a tie which bound her as a devoted slave to her family that she might turn out to be all that was worth her bringing up. So time went on. At certain periods Hopes life was strictly in the more or less narrow rut of a cut out routineg at other times, full of interesting happenings. Especially was she happy when the time came for one of her brothers!-or sisters-to cast off the guidance of his parents and prepare to make his own way in the world: not happy because of the loss of one in the family, but delighted with all the revels which accom- panied that event. Now Hope, although the best of a good lot of children, was only human, and when she had reached an age which justified her tormenting the younger ones, she no doubt took full advantage of this opportunity. Moreover, at this time she felt perhaps a little more resentment for the privileges she considered herself deprived of and the strict obedience required than at any other period of her life. The awakened age was soon past. Hurrah! She was now ready, at least so she thought, to begin to start to commence to get ready to be the eldest child at home. Was she conceited? Perhaps, a littleg but it was hoped this quality would soon disappear. At last she reached the age at which she first brought foremost the best characteristics, the best stuff to use modern slang, that were in herg and profiting by these she attained success. Her Hrst great activity was that of taking the responsibility of a family reunion, let us call it, in honor of one about to enter upon the sea of life. With great enthusiasm was it undertaken and with equal success was it carried out. And Hope had done it. page eighty ezqhl -THE PARHISCHAN- CLASS HISTORY-H 1927 Now was the final stretch begun. The great day arrived when she was to be the eldest one. She was consulted upon all important matters, and was allowed to exercise authority to a certain degree over the younger members of the family. Of certain restrictions which Hope had always disliked when young she secured the abolition. Other improvements she devised and sponsored, proud to be building up a memory that would not be forgotten soon. At last the goal was reached. She was of age, prepared it was to be hoped to assume the responsibilities of life. No longer would she have for guidance that dear old home, those protecting walls, those interested parents and relatives. As she said goodbye, she was sure that she would never forget her home and helpers there, and would return often to visit. Perhaps she would to a slight degree pay for her careful training by bringing back useful suggestions for the system employed in her home. The answer: What I have read is not a poem, Nor yet a long oration: But just a simple little story Of a class 'til graduation.

Kempy is a perfect portrayal of small-town family life. Dad Bence Qin ordinary life, John Dudleyj is a retired harness manufacturer. As the sharp-eyed and sharp-tongued dad , he rules his family with an iron hand guided by a submerged kindness, Mary Elizabeth Summers plays the part of Ma Bence , the sweet, gray-haired mother. Elizabeth McCormick as Jane Wade, portrays the character of the eldest daughter who clearly realizes she is the only one of the girls fortunate enough to have been 'Amarried oHf . We congratulate you, Jane. Jane's husband, Ben, is Edward McGrew. Ben is the typical small-town business man-slangy and always a good fellow in spite of his troubles. Kathleen Christian as Kate, and Helen Balderson as Ruth, are the two lively and pretty unmarried daughters. Bob Hays plays as Duke Merrill, a distinctive looking business man who is so fortunate as to have traveled very extensively. Charles Drollinger impersonates the likeable young small-town boy. By his frank, ingenious manner, he readily gains the affection of those with whom he associates. The cast, chosen from a competitive list and coached by Miss Winifred Cox and Miss Ethel Musgrave, is composed of a capable group of dramatists. With each actor and actress working eagerly under capable direction, the forecast from dramatic head- quarters naturally predicts a fair night for May 27, l927. page ninety THE I ARHIQCHAN E Y , X I ,' X 'fl ,a ix fwx b X '.

Mr. Carlsen came to Parkersburg from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. It takes time to install a new system of athletics and we are just now beginning to reap the benefits of a year and a half of fundamental work. Mr. Glenn A. Bailey is new to us this year. He is a graduate of Coe College, Iowa, where he made a name for himself as an athlete. After graduation he entered the U. S. Army Aviation Corps where he served during the war. Since then he has taught and coached at Mason City and Perry, Iowa. At Parkersburg he has coached the backs in football and now has charge of the track team. Mr. A. F. Peterson is also an Iowa product. He studied for three years at Ohio State and then graduated from Marshall College. At both institutions he was prominent in athletics and in fraternity circles, being a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity. He is line coach of the Big Reds and assists with the basketeers. Mr. Young is completing his third successful year as coach of the Little Red football and basketball teams. Almost all of the stars of recent years have passed through the capable hands of the husky mentor from Wisconsin. page one hundred four THE PARHISCHA E 4.3 .-C1 2 c GJ J 2 O x od rl.

However, the Big Reds were victorious in eight out of eleven games during the past season. The football team was under the capable direction of Coaches M. A. Carlsen, A. E. Peterson, and Glen Bailey. Too much praise cannot be given these men for the high caliber of the Big Reds, who always play fair, clean, and hard-driving football, and carry with them the determination to win. The season opened with New Martinsville on our Stadium field, At the end of a well-played game, the score stood 12-O in favor of our visitors. Let us remember that the Magnolia team was runner-up in the state championship. The next Friday we opposed Middlebourne and with the defeat of last Week ringing in our ears, we completely outclassed the Middlebourne team, the score being 48-O. Next day, the Big Reds met Pennsboro and defeated them 31'-0. The Red line during these two games seemed to be invincible, which reflected a shining light upon Coach Peterson. Whoa, Marietta! cries the Big Red team and stopped the up-river men by a score of 19-7. At the beginning of the game it seemed that Parkersburg was playing against great odds, but a game is never over until the final whistle. Next Saturday, Washington and Irving of Clarksburg came to our metropolis and were outclassed during the game, but an aerial attack proved the downfall of the Big Reds. The score: 12-20. On the following Saturday, the Big Reds journeyed to Charleston where Charleston was defeated by 20-6. Later in the season Charleston defeated Huntington by whom the Big Reds were defeated. On Friday, the Yellow Jackets from Spencer came up and went back white- washed-12-O. Saturday, Huntington defeated the Big Reds 9-O, but the game was played well, Huntington receiving the breaks. lt has been said that a team must be good to be lucky. Well, we don't know about that. Now understand, we didn't say Huntington was not good! West Virginia 21, Center O. This was on Saturday at Stadium field and Parkers- burg played a preliminary and defeated Wheeling I3-0. We were surely fortunate in having our University boys, captained by Ross McHenry, a captain of one of the Big Red teams which won the state championship. Beware, Marietta! On Saturday following the Wheeling game the Big Reds Went up the river thirteen miles to do battle with the Buckeyes. It was a typical day for a Marietta game-mud ankle deep, snow falling and plenty cold. It was just too sad for Marietta! The final score was 9-O, Marietta getting the cipher. This was the second defeat handed the Ohioans this year. Get hot, Marietta-Get hot! To do things right, following the game, a battle between the fans ensued. No one was wounded to any great extent. To finish one of the most successful seasons in years, the Big Red team defeated Buckhannon 20-O. We loose but four men in graduation this year: Fink, Dawson, Williams, and B. Evans: so watch that Big Red team next year! The last ofiicial event of the football season was the Marietta-Parkersburg banquet, held in our gym. The affair was a great success and next year will be held in Marietta. Page one hundred szx -THE PARHISCI-IAN-4 page one r..,. v,,. W. r. ,Wg I vVk,k BIG RED BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Dec.

Our first big game of the season started with the Big Blacksn of Point Pleasant from whom we won in a slow, but hard fought game. The Reds showed much improvement and were never in danger of losing the game. Huntington was our next victim, and it was one of the most exciting games of the year. The Reds staged a great comeback in the last half and tied the score at the end of the game. ln the overtime period, we proved too much for them and won by a four-point margin. le was a great game, and the fans were in an uproar the last half. After showing some good basketball in the former games we went through a terrible slump in our next five games and lost to Marietta, Pennsboro, Wheeling, and twice to Charleston. Our team showed much improvement in passing and defensive work but lacked accuracy in finding the basket. Many times the ball was worked to the basket only to be missed. Marietta, Pennsboro, Wheeling and Charleston, all had very good teams and it was no dishonor having such teams as these beating us, and they all had to play some mighty good basketball in doing it. The strong Spencer outfit was the next team that the Big Reds defeated on the local gym in the hardest fought game of the season. Spencer came up determined to set back the Reds, but the Reds were more determined to turn the tide and did so by playing some good basketball and defeating them 24 to 21. The game was exciting allthe way through, the score being close most of the time, with the Reds usually having a slight advantage. Parkersburg then took a trip to Huntington for their second game of the season with them, playing the game on the Vanity Fair Ciym and losing it in an overtime period. The Iirst half the Reds showed much superior ball and the score ended 13 to 7 in our favor. But Huntington came back strong the next half and handed the Reds a defeat in a very exciting last half and extra period. Stivers High of Dayton, Ohio was the best team to appear here this season and defeated the Reds in a hard fought game 29 to 19. The Reds missed many fouls and several sucker shots in the game: otherwise the game would have been much closer. We closed the season in the most glorious way that we could have closed itg BEAT MARIETTA 29 to 17 on their own gym! Prom the start of the game, Marietta never had a chance. The Reds took the lead by a good margin and kept it. We played a game superior to the Orange and Black crew and completely outclassed them. lt was some game and the Reds showed their real ability. SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT Parkersburg attended the sectional tournament at Huntington. We played Scot High of Madison the nrst game and won it 19 to 9. The next game with Pt. Pleasant was a real heart-breaker. With but 16 seconds to play and the Reds holding a 1-point lead, Pt. Pleasant came through and took what seemed to be a victory out of our hands. lt was some game but the Reds did not play up to their standard. STATE TOURNAMENT The Big Reds were put out in their first game playing the strong W. 1. High from Clarksburg losing it 19 to 15. The Reds missed many Hshort shotsi' but played a very good floor game, W. 1. had several 'Along shot artists and they all seemed to be hitting in our game. W. 1. played Fairmont in the Hnal game for the state champion- ship, but lost a close game. page one hundred eight -THE PARHISCHAN- THE TRACK TEAM THE EARLY season promises of the track team are lived up to, Parkersburg High School will have seen a successful track team again this spring. The l y ! schedule is an attractive one and the thinly clad heroes of the cinder path have done justice to the early portion of it. On April 16th we had an open meet in which Parkersburg High School Alumni were invited to participate. This meet was won handily by the Big Reds. The old boys found that it takes constant training to keep up to the competitive pitch. The meet was valuable in giving Coach Bailey an opportunity to size up the squad for the coming campaign. Welch, Wise, and lVlcCuskey look like sure point- winners in the weight events. There was no high-class sprinter appearing for the Big Reds, but Price and Woofter showed lots of speed and may develop. page one hundred nine -THE PARHlSCHAN-- THE TRACK TEAM Rake and Mason are fast and could do well in the sprints but were entered in the hurdles where they performed credibly, Mason winning the high event. The runs showed Foley and Smith as the leaders with Laughlin, a new-comer in track athletics, as a strong candidate, There seems to be again the customary dearth of vaulters and jumpers. On the 23rd of-April a part of the Big Red squad took part in the Ohio Relays for the first time, The showing was unexpectedly good the boys having made remark- able progress in a week. The best individual performance was the second place won by Mason in the 120 yard low hurdle race. In the half mile relay race, Price, Woofter, Rake and Mason, in the order named, took a nice third from a fast field of starters. A little later Rake, Foley, Laughlin, and Mason won second place medals in a good mile relay. A little improvement will make them strong contenders for the same race in the state meet at Morgantown. On the 30th of April a strong squad goes to Ashland, Kentucky, for the big Tri-State meet held annually at that place. Following that, the team will compete at Charleston for the championship of the Big Three in West Virginia high school track circles: Charleston, Huntington, and Parkersburg. The next Saturday will witness the one mid-season appearance of the Big Reds on home soil when we entertain the visiting teams in the Sectional meet which precedes the State Meet of the following Saturday. All in all, the prospect looks good, It is never safe to make predictions, but if the Big Reds score heavily in the final meet of the year, they will wrest the all-time- scoring honors from Huntington, in whose grasp they have been held since the inception of the annual State Meet. . page one hundred ten -THE PARHISCHAN- 2 TENNIS is a sport not usually considered as important as football, basketball and track by the majority of the student body, but greater numbers have been Mligjfa participating lately, both for the school and for amusement. Twenty-four boys came out for the squad this spring under Mr. A. C. Taylor as coach. Tryouts for team are made by elimination in a tournament. It is planned to have four teams this spring. At present there are rather limited funds available for use, but games will be scheduled with Athens, Marietta, Beverly, Spencer, and probably Huntington. L Everett McKean is captain of the squad this year, as he has been on the team several times and of course is an experienced player. Everyone should use and appreciate the fine tennis courts on our campus which are put in shape as early as possible every spring. Parkersburg High School is particularly fortunate in having six fine courts so near at hand. Along with our other fine posses- sions we should enjoy them to the fullest extent, page one hundred eleven L -THE PARHISCHAN- THE LITTLE REDS HLITTLE REDS have come to be as much a fixture in Parkersburgs athletic life as the 'Big Reds. They furnish new material for the varsity A- 'i teams in football and basketball. This material is developed through an independent training and a separate schedule of games. Because of the scarcity of large high schools in this vicinity, the schedule is neces- sarily shorter, and the Little Reds frequently have to play the first teams of other schools. This year the Little Red gridders broke even in a series of six games. The Little Red basketball team had a successful season in spite of the fact that several of the best men were drafted for the Big Red team in mid-season. The first game resulted in a loss to Cairo high school, 9-7. Against the Marietta reserves, We lost one and Won one, losing 26-21' and Winning 28-9. The Spencer reserves Won a hot battle ll-9. ln the intermediate Y. M. C. A, league the Little Reds Won nine out of ten games and copped the pennant. In both the intermediate tournament and the Ohio Valley tournament they went to the semi-finals: in the latter fracas being victorious until eliminated by a veteran team of Marietta college captains. Coach Harvey Young has handled the destinies of the youngsters for three years. page one hundred twelve X -THE PARHISCHAN- ,K ' R ,f 'Y ,T if-f f' u X ' XX , ' Yyxxa N X X K QUVVVE' , Y X 9 X!

The music was tuneful and pleasing, and the voices were very good. The characters were well chosen for their parts-each one doing credit to himself and the class. The scene was laid on the Isle of Beaujolais, and was a clever mixture of royalty and peasantry. The humorous situations and witty sayings, furnished many opoor- tunities for a good laugh, and the audience showed real appreciation of the efforts of the characters. The chorus music was exceptionally good, and the pretty costumes added greatly to the attractiveness of the scenes. Such a production requires much hard work on the part of the cast, as well as the instructors, and their labors and efforts were indeed appreciated by every member of the Senior Class. page one hundred fifteen -THE PARHISCHAN- HI-Y CLUB Watch Your Watch, We're On Schedule!

At its weekly meetings many returned travelers gave reminiscences of their trips to various places. Among these were Mr. XV. H. Wolfe, on Spain g Mrs. J. B. Sammel, on New Orleans, the Mardi Gras and the South in Winter . and Miss Helen Wilson on 'JPre-War Russia. Miss Elieen Ash, of the student body, furnished a highly unique talk of Central Africa, where she lived for three years. Mr. H. N. Long described from experience 'Seal-Catching off Newfoundland and a Visit to the Esquimaux of Labrador. Mrs. Mary E. Cranes description of the Passion Play at Oberammergaun as seen by her, was a Lenton season number. Faculty contributions to the program were made by Principal H. W. Piggott, who told of observations on Washington, D. C. when living there. An extract from one of Miss Laura Moore's European trips was given under the subject Venice, Miss Ada Piercy's topic was Yellowstone Park. Miss Josephine Donovan discussed The Western European Trip. Alaska was sketched by Mr. Thomas Athey. A'West Virginia, the Switzerland of America was Dr. W. J. Judy's theme. Among several talks by Mr. H. M. Quick were those on New York City and on Practical Details of Travel. Several short accounts of trips by students were given throughout the year. A few additional speakers will be arranged for during the remaining part of the year. A trip by the club to Washington, D. C., has been among its ambitions, but as yet no philanthropist has donated the amount necessary for an enterprise of such magnitude. page one hundred seventeen -THE PARHISCHAN- THE ASTRONOMY CLUB HE ASTRONOMY CLUB, one of our old standbys, has enjoyed a very suc- cessful year with a total number of 51 star-gazers. Owing to its present size, --qifff two classes were formed for the members, in elementary and advanced astron- omy. Regular meetings are held every Monday after school under the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Taylor, with occasional talks on astronomy by Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Withers, who have been very helpful and faithful to the club. Social meetings with varied programs are held every other Friday at the home of Mr. Taylor. Other activities are hikes and picnics, so that none of the members lose their health in studying books on astronomy.

They know how to do the many things which must be done in every library such as checking books in and out, mending them, typing cards, etc. ad infinitum. They serve during their study periods and outside of school hours, and certainly learn a lot about books and authors in this time. The group is organized into a club called the Pee-Ach-Ess Library Council which meets once a month. The officers are Emilv Neal, President, and Donna Drake, Secretary. The girls receive two minor points per semester for their work, which is a small enough reward for such faithful service. page one hundred twenty-one -THE PARHISCHAN-- X X f 7? 1...i,,4,.

Mr. George J. Dietz, the director, has been responsible for its growth and present success through his own faithful work with the boys. The Band organized several weeks before school last fall when it played for the Pennsboro Fair during the Road Opening. Then work began in earnest for the football season. Mr. Dietz put the boys through some drills and other formation in order to make them look as well as they sound. Everybody was on his feet when the band appeared at each game. The boys supplied plenty of music and stunts, especially the trumpet calls on the new post horns, when the Big Reds came on the field. The Band helped our gridders win at Charleston and compared very favorably with the West Virginia Cadet Band at the W. V. U.-Centre game. The Band gave a very successful concert to a packed house on February 24 of this year. The program contained many classical and popular numbers, as well as several specialties, such as numbers given by the Saxophone Quartet, and other vocal and instrumental numbers. The band is able to give only one regular concert a year because of its work during the football season. one hundred twenty szic -THE PARHISCHAN- PARKERSBURG HIGH SCHOOL BAND Oth 1 music supplied by the Band was given when Queen Marie went through the city and also during Music Week, in May. The band also played its annual concert lor Williamstown High School this spring.

Every fifth period one can usually hear some species of music issuing from the auditorium, when the group is having its regular practice. The Orchestra is kept very busy by the school and is being appreciated more than ever this year by the student body. lt plays for all regular and special assemblies, usually giving one or more big numbers at each assembly, besides marches at the opening and close of the program. The Orchestra supplies music for plays and other entertainments and for debates, etc. Four concerts are given each school year. This includes many classical selections by the Orchestra and plenty of special numbers, such as instrumental solos, comedy sketches, etc,, always making a pleasing variety. Some of the money from the concerts is used to buy the larger instruments, such as the two fine tympani which were acquired last fall. Prof. John R. Swales, the director, gets fine results with his players because he can wield a wicked bow himself and thus is able to instruct by precept and example. Prof. Swales is trying hard to get the student body to a higher standard of music and we believe that he is succeeding this year. one hundred twenty-eight -THE PARHISCHAN- PARKERSBURG HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA We don't know what the Orchestra will do next year with any more members as they have already had to remove several rows of seats to accommodate the present number.

The small number was due to the fact that members were admitted only by tryout. Last semester the club sponsored A'The Old Homestead , a professional play, which was quite a success, This semester they gave a play with cast made up of members of the club. The play, Adam and Eva -a comedy in three acts-was a hit from every standpoint. lt was the very interesting story of a disgusted father who left his extravagant family to the care of his business manager, While he was away. The ten parts were taken very well by Genus Bartlett, Emily Neal, Ed McGrew, Ranah Isner, Susan Smith, Dolly Eppen, Darrel Hamric, John Turkleson, Milford Batten. and XVilliam Springer. Miss Ethel Musgrave and Miss Winifred Cox acted as sponsors and directors of the plays. The oflicers are: Gwendoyn Matheney , . ,....

Treasurer -THE PARHISCHAN- INTRA-MURALS POR 1926-27 ll boy to play in some kind of athletic contest at least twice per week to intra-mural program represents an attempt to induce every physically fit D broaden the scope of athletic competition, as it were, by adding varied types of games. It is intended to broaden and supplement the physical education department. That the intra-mural idea is growing in popularity is evidenced by the increased numbers reporting for the different sports, the ease with which teams are now formed, and the present crowds of enthusiastic spectators who come out to see the fun. Here are the data on the past year: Speedball Cross Country Fall Horse Shoe ...i. Fall Tennis , , Fall Volley Ball ..,. 60 boys- 4 teams Winter Volley Ball , 77 boys-l0 teams l5 boys Winter Basketball . 84 boys-l'0 teams 76 boys Foul Throwing . . . 104 boys 24 boys Kitten Ball Pitching , 65 boys 56 boys- 7 teams Wrestling .,,,.., 43 boys 6 Freshman teams Spring Basetball Ball Tournament , . . ....l05 boys 3 Sophomore teams l4 teams: 4 Junior teams Probable participation for remainder of year: 1 Senior team Class Track Meet ,......, 75-80 boys Kitten Ball Meet .......,.. 60-75 boys Volley Ball Meet .,....... 75-80 boys Tennis ....,..,......,. 40-50boys Cross Country ........... 3 5-40 boys Spring Horse Shoe ,....,. 75-85 boys This will make a grand total of about 1l20 participants for the 1926-7 season. Of course many of the boys are repeaters , making it not quite a fair estimate. How- erver we are justified in adding that nearly equal this number have reported for free play at noon and after school during the entire year. The present standing of the classes toward the All-Year Trophy is as follows: Freshmen ....,.....i. ll63 points Juniors .....,..,..... 722 points Sophomores .,........ 105 2 points Seniors ............., 3 5 0 points The Sophomores have been the most consistent winners in the various events but the Freshmen have had greater numbers participating. There is a steady decline in participation as the boy progresses from the Freshman to the Senior Class. There are reasons for this decline: numerous Older Older Older clubs, etc, Older in girls. boys boys boys boys work after school. are varsity material. use time for outside activities in school such as debating, dramatics, lose their enthusiasm for 'Asmall boys' games, or, become interested Learning and building from the failures and experiences of this year We should all look forward to a bigger and better time during the season of '27 and '28. With a more hearty response on the part of the students and with additional sports, we should plan for at least 509? participation among the male students. The lntra-Mural All-Year trophy while not having great material value, should become sacred to the heart of every boy who helps to win it. It should stand for class spirit in sports, school-wide competition, and strong, healthy bodies. one hundred thirty-two TI-IE PARHISCHAN- 1 one hundred thirty-three BOYS' INTRA-MURAL TEAMS --THE PARHISCHAN- GIRLS' INTRA-IVIURAL ATHLETICS NTRAMURAL athletics for girls started in the fall of 1926 with the following sports: hockey, basketball, volley ball, playground baseball, and tennis. At the opening of school last fall an extensive program for girls' athletics was arranged. It was planned so that there would be, during the whole school year, some sport for every girl. The fall season opened with tennis and hockey. Miss Fisher, in charge of tennis, arranged tournaments between the four classes of the school. This series of games was continued until cold weather. At the same time Miss Woodyard coached the hockey teams and for the first season great progress was made. Most of the girls enjoy hockey and it promises to be the leading sport in seasons to come. With the winter season came basketball. There was not a varsity team this year but there were many very good class teams. After several weeks of practice the lnterclass tournament started with many very interesting games. In the preliminaries there were about five teams entered for each class. From these was selected the team to represent the class. In the Semi-finals the Freshmen played the Juniors and the Sophomores battled against the Seniors. In the nnals the Juniors played the Sopho- mores and the lower class men were victorious winning the girls' basketball champion- ship. In the spring, playground baseball was started: also spring hockey and tennis. As tennis is generally considered a girl's sport, naturally many of the fairer sex participate in that game. Parkersburg High boasted of a girls' tennis team last fall but could find no other school which did, so ours became just an honorary team. During the latter part of March and the first of April, the volley ball tournament was held. More teams were entered in this sport than in any other. The teams were divided into the two groups, the Army and the Navy. The Junior II team is the best in the Army, and the Junior I team in the Navy. In the finals these teams will play each other. The main idea in intramurals is to induce a large number of girls to participate in the various groups. A point system was worked out and a hundred points was given to the class to which each team belonged. The class winning the greatest number of points by the end of the year was given the Intramural trophy. To the champion in each sport, individual awards are given. These awards are to be medals with the name of the sport engraved on the back, Too much credit can not be given to Miss Vwfoodyard and Miss Fisher, who have worked hard to promote girls' athletics in High School. one hundred thirty four -THE PARHISCHAN- one hundred thirty-Hue GIRLS' INTRA-MURAL TEAMS -THE PARHISCHAN- MIKE'S LITERARY IKES Mrk Chairman.

Every superintendent in every large industry in the country will promptly say that his problem is not machinery, nor markets, nor money, but men and women fitted for the kind of employment necessary in his establishment and willing to give the type of service that every business must have in order to be successful. There is a great deal of mediocrity in the world- so much that the person who is really ambitious and thoughtful has almost an open field. In every business there are a few men and women around whom the wheels of the enterprise revolve-they are the ones who know their business and who can be trusted to carry the responsibility that comes to them in their positions. Because of this demand for ability--for basic intelligence and industry upon which has been built a technical education for business-the commercial world offers some very special inducements to the High School graduate. There are places almost without limit for high-grade stenographers, accountants, private secretaries, department managers, etc.g in fact there is no oflice in any enter- prise so high that the man or woman who is willing to pay the price of preparation may not aspire to it-and let us say here that the woman's place in business is just as big and that her possibilities are just as great as are those of the man. In verification of what we have said we shall be glad to send, upon request, the names and addresses of hosts of our boys and girls who have gone from our school into beginning business situations from which they have climbed, because of their training, into important managerial, executive and ownership positions.
