I K The Football Banquet t HE annual football banquet was held on December 4, 1926, at six o'clock at the Central High School building. The long table was placed in the hall on the first fioor, and was very beautifully decorated with large red and blue candles placed alternately the length of the table, and in the center a large bunch of red poinsettias. The red and blue nut cups and the place cards with the pictures of the squad on them added to the attractiveness of the table. The favors were large round blue pins with P. H. S. printed on them in red. Suspended from the pin were red and blue silk ribbons to which was attached a small football. At six o'clock the team appeared and after some searching succeeded in finding their places. VVhen the dinner, which was served in three courses was completed, Mr. Gates, who was toast-master, called upon the various members of the team for talks. Some of the boys seemed bashful but managed to say they hoped the coming season would be successful. Mr. Dietrich, Mr. Sims, and Coach lYertz gave splendid talks. The newly elected captain, Frank Babbitt, in his talk said he hoped he could fill the position of captain as well as Robert Comer had in the past year. Following this the boys presented the coach a handsome traveling bag with the understanding that he wouldn't take it as a hint to pack up and leave. The cooks and waitresses were called into the hall and given a cheer for their excellent dinner and splendid service. The banquet then broke up, the seniors rather regretting they wouldn't be back next year. The committees who had charge of the banquet were, Miss McKinney and Miss Nixon as decorating committee, and Mrs. Cashner and Miss Long in charge of the dinner. KATHERINE HIGGINS. High School Parties HERE have been two high school parties so far this year. The first one took place Saturday, October 23, in the form of a costume party. The teachers in charge were Mr. Gates, Miss McKinney, Miss Ruth Wilkinson, and Miss Motschman. At 7:30 a program was held in the auditorium. A clever play entitled Not Afraid was presented there. The cast consisted of Eleanor White, Clark Gabriel, Marion Rhoades, and Bobby Binford. The second part of the program was a Jack-in-the-Box dance, given by five girls. After the program, everyone went to the gymnasium where several prizes were awarded for the best costumes. Dancing was then enjoyed for the rest of the evening with Red Crabtree's orchestra. Both the junior and Senior High students attended, which made a large number of young folks. Everyone had a wonderful time, and returned home with another good time to add to his or her memories. The second high school party was held on Saturday, December 4, after the Football Banquet. The entertainment committee was made up of Miss McKin- ney, Miss Nixon, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Mote. A program was held in the auditorium at 7:30 to start the party. The Girls' Glee Club put on a clever program and an auction of lost articles was held with Clark Gabriel, Bob Comer, Mac Freshour, and Herman Chrowl acting as auctioneers. The letters were awarded to the members of the team and some of the boys received beautiful red sweaters. Later everyone went to the gymnasium which was beautifully decorated with red and blue paper and the school Hags. The dance music was very good and made everyone feel in the dancing spirit. Everyone had an enjoyable and satisfactory time and went home with happy memories. MARY MAURER. 84 ff' ' I xxx!! -W :mxxszwmxxxx ,, . . 1 - xnxx ,,-- gg yxxgyggxg- -.-sxym 2? f ns. ,Q.

Each number shared an equal part in making this one of the greatest Lyceum Courses that has ever been offered at Central High. The high school musical compositions were inspiring and the lectures were pleasing and interesting. The first number was a splendid musical program by Madam Grey-Lehvinne on her old Cremona violin, accompanied by her husband at the piano. XYith her charming personality and wonderful playing, she held the audience almost spellbound. On December the eighth a scientihc lecture was given by Mr. R. B. Ambrose. Mr. Ambrose lectured on a subject which appealed especially to boys although it was interesting to all who heard it. The program consisted chieiiy of electrical demonstrations The arc light, the selenium cell, the induction coil, electrical welding, and the radio were all demonstrated and explained clearly and fully. Probably the best liked lecturer of the year was the one given on nature by Lew Sarett, the well-known nature poet. His impersonations of the Indian, his imitations of the calls of wild animals, and his vivid and beautiful descriptions overflowed with the pure, noble thought which comes to the student of nature. The other musical number was given by the famous Schubert Male Quartet, which attracted a large crowd. Their singing could not fail to bring about a greater appreciation of music, the great masterpieces being rendered in perfect harmony. The final number was a lecture given by the well-known preacher and lecturer, Dr. Allyn XY. Evans. The subject, Germany-Then and Now , was thoroughly discussed by the great traveler. The touches of humor made the lecture of such a character that it would be enjoyed by all. The Lyceum Course thus came to a successful close. The course next year will be equally as good if it is given the support of the people in this city. XYILLIAM ALEXANDER. Historical Pictures VERYONE at Central High School is glad to see XYednesday come. It is the morning for the Picture Show . This last semester, through the efforts of the Piqua History-Civics Club, several of the Piqua schools have been very fortunate in having an opportunity of seeing The Chronicles of America, a series of historical photoplays based upon the fifty volumes published under the same name. The pictures which are approved by the Council's Committee on Publication of Yale University Press were copyrighted in 1924 and passed by the National Board of Review. They are a series of fifteen stories, instructive as well as entertaining, in which is seen the making of a great nation. The first of the series is Columbus , adapted from the The Spanish Conquerors , showing the discovery of America. Others are The Pilgrims , The Puritans , The Settlement of Jamestown . The historical accuracy of the presentation of these photoplays is an im- portant event in American History as guaranteed by the painstaking work of a number of distinguished historians. These motion picture plays have proved very interesting to the pupils. They are presented at Wilder and Bennett Junior High Schools, South Street School, and Central High School. A free-will offering was taken each time before the presentation of the pictures to defray the minor expenses of securing them, an offering which the pupils were glad to make as their part in financing The Yale Cl'lI'OI1iClC Edl.IC21fiOIl3.l PlayS.H PAULINE LANE. 85 .ANN S N - x X 'KN ' .. . 2 B.

It was made larger to accommodate the special classes that were formerly located in Central High under crowded conditions. There are two opportunity classes and one class for the crippled children. These special classes afford wonderful opportunities to those children who are unable, either physically or mentally, to keep up with the active normal children. They not only study regular lessons but are taught to make things such as baskets, cane chair bottoms, and the girls to sew and to weave. Then they also have a large kindergarten. The building is beautifully modern in every way and the children themselves are adding to the school by purchasings for it. Their biggest accomplishment this year is the new 100 volume library which the students helped to buy. A staff of eighteen, eighth and ninth year girls act as librarians, keeping discipline and checking the books just as in any ordinary city library. They expect to keep adding to it until there is no room left for more expansion. The faculty and student body are very proud of their new library and in fact of the whole Bennett School.

The only special class they have is a sub-junior class for some students who are too far along for the 6A. classes but not enough advanced to go into the TB. class. This is just a new idea being tried, and if it proves successful in helping this sort of student it will be adopted more extensively. Quite a large kindergarten class, requiring the attention of two teachers, occupies the very attractive room planned for that purpose. There is in the building, an art room, manual training room, gymnasium, and emergency room equipped with medical aids, besides numerous regular class rooms. During the past year the pupils of this school purchased a motion picture machine and each week since the first of the year they have been showing one of the Chronicles of America Series of historical pictures. The XVilder students work hard and enthusiastically giving entertainments so they can buy new things to help beautify and improve their building.

As these myths impressed me very much I shall try to tell them to you as they were told to me. Two little Indian boys went swimming. After their swim, they lay down on a huge boulder to dry themselves in the sunshine. It was such a beautiful day that they soon fell asleep. As they slept the boulder grew and grew until it reached high into the sky and out of sight of their tribe who looked for them in vain. Finally the animals gathered for a council to find a way to bring the boys down. Each animal jumped, leaped, and climbed as high as he could but none could reach the top. Then tiny Measuring XYorm began to creep and finally reached the top. He awoke theboys and led them back to their tribe. There- fore the Indians called the great rock after the little Measuring lYorm which was Tutckanula, but white men call it El Capitan. According to an Old Indian myth the first part of the earth to be created was Mount Shasta. The Indians believed the great spirit broke a hole through heaven with a rock, and where the rock landed he Hung more rocks until he could step from the sky to the summit. He created the forest by running his hand over the sides of the hills, then plucked some leaves from the trees, breathed on them, tossed them into the air and they were birds. In this manner the world was created. The powerful beings dwelled in the Catskill and Adirondacks while the Highlands of the Hudson confined the rebellious spirits. The White Mountains were the home of the great and blessed spirits and the great spirit lived there and looked down upon his children. The red men were afraid to tread upon this high and holy ground. The White Mountains were created in a different manner from the others. An Indian hunter, exhausted from his fruitless hunt, lay down in the snow to die. He dreamed of a wonderful hunting ground. Vllhen he awoke from his dream he called to the Great Spirit, VVhere is this country I have seen? The Great Spirit gave him a coal and a spear. He dropped the coal, and fire and smoke spread from it. A wonderful hunting ground was created and a voice sounded the promise, Here shall the Great Spirit live and watch over his children. As the smoke cleared, the hunter gazed upon the mighty peaks. God stood upon their crest. The great valley known as Yosemite, but which meant to the Indians 'fGrizzly Bear , has many beautiful falls. In this valley a great chief fell in love with beautiful Tisayac, spirit of the valley. As he was about to win her she vanished as a bird of the sky. The chief left his tribe after she had vanished. The members of his tribe were soon scattered and Yosemite became a desert. When Tisayac returned she wept bitterly and called on the Great Spirit to return life to the valley: this he did. He also smote the mountain and let the 93 I A.. .wx is ' 'YN'1twm,X 151 ' .. . '. 1 ' X!I!iYK'i'3fKXXX'3'.'S.'X'X'. . -. ' R'If.SX.X?

Now the great chief, hearing this, returned and went up the mountain to the top of the channel and here carved his likeness with his hunting knife, that his tribe might remember him. As he hnished his work he looked down at the falls and saw Tisayac, who smiled and beckoned to him. lYith joy he leaped into the falls and disappeared with her. ll'e call the falls Bridal Veil Falls. I When we think of the great Niagara Falls we do not think the same as the Indians did, for to them it meant a sacrifice. Each year a bride was chosen to go over the precipice. One year the chief's daughter who was chosen, was the favorite among her people. She was very beautiful in the white canoe which was decorated with fruit and flowers. The heart of the great chief, Eagle Eye, was heavy as he saw the swift strong current carry the little bark into mid-stream. VVithout a word he leaped into his own canoe and sped after his daughter. This great double sacrifice pleased the Great Spirit and he changed them into spirits of strength and beauty-VVhite Cloud was changed into a maid of mist and Eagle Eye into the power of waterfall. Now the voice does not call the Indians to sacrifice but is as music to their ears. They send no more white canoes down the river but they love to watch the clouds of mist play in the sunlight above the beautiful waters of the Great Niagara. ANNA MARIE KIENLE. Indian Poetry HE other evening while looking over some old literature I found a few poems that I thought were characteristic of the Indian and his life. Today in the hustle and bustle of busy America we oft times pass by the beauties of this world. Two hundred years ago this was not the case. The Indians hunted and camped in the hills and valleys where now stand some of our largest cities. They were the true children of Nature. To them the Sun, the Moon, and the Wind with other elements of nature were gods to be worshipped. The flowers, trees, plains, and other beauties of the country were blessings showered on them by the gods above. Consequently many of their poems dwell on this chain of thought, and some true feelings are found in their chants, prayers, and pleas to the Great One above. The life of the Indian is one of interest and one that can be studied from many angles. He saw America when it was truly America the Beautiful. He knew of the beautiful rolling plains, the wonderous caverns, tinted with thousands of colors, and the flowers blooming beside the little streamlets in the cool of the woods. The Indians knew America the Beautiful. Truly their poems bespeak the fact. The literary ability of the Indians was possibly not the highest in the world but their thoughts somewhat incoherently put together were beautiful and their poems express their feelings. Two poems have been selected as examples of Indian poetic art, one a prayer, the other a song of farewell. 94 .Af -f v YiE.Y,R.X',X'.X' Y'N'.N1NN'R'S H9 AN INDIAN PRAYER Lord of the Mountain, Reared within the mountain, Young man, Chieftain, Hear a young man's prayer!

Adieu to the graves where my fathers now rest! For I must be going to the far distant west. I've sold my possessions: my heart fills with woe To think I must leave them. Alas! I must go. Farewell ye tall oaks in whose pleasant green shade In childhood I sported, in innocence playedg My dog and my hatchet, my arrows, and bow, Are still in remembrance. Alas! I must go. Adieu ye loved scenes, which bind me like chains, Where on my gay pony I chased o'er the plains. The deer and the turkey I tracked in the snow. But now I must leave them. Alas! I must go. Adieu to the trails which for many a year I traveled to spy on the turkey and deer, The hills, trees and flowers that pleased me so I must now leave. Alas! I must go. Sandusky, Tymochtee, and Brokenswood streams, Nevermore shall I see you except in my dreams, Adieu to the marshes where the cranberries grow O'ver the great Mississippi, Alas! I must go.

M Indian Names in Ohio HE Indian has not only given us many customs and many manners of dress, but he has also left behind him as he travelled, many a stray word of his language, which should make a great impression upon us. XYe should be more impressed by this, because we are so closely connected with Indian events. XYe are familiar with the names our of state, city, county, and river but these names bear no significance to us. XYe say Ohio, Piqua, and Miami figuratively not realizing what they really meant when originated. The word Ohio in the Indian language signified Beautiful River . Miami means Mother, while Piqua was given its name when a white man was burned at the stake, for Piqua in their language signified ashes If one would study the counties of Ohio he would be very much interested and surprised to find how many of them still bear their former Indian names. Ashtabula, which is the largest county in Ohio was named after the Ashtabula river which the Indians called fish river. The counties of Coshocton and Cuyahoga were Indian villages where the white people went to trade furs. Cuyahoga was named after the river which in the Indian language meant crooked If one would see the name of Geauga he would immediately realize it was an Indian name, but very few people know what this name really means. The natives gave us raccoon as the meaning of this word. Hocking county is another, named after a river. This was called Hocking because in the Indian language the word Hocking meant bottle. From a bird's-eye view this river has the exact shape of a bottle. XYe all know that Ottawa county was a great trading post and that is why the Indians gave it this name. The Indians have very peculiar names for some of our other counties. Erie is a common name but the meaning is very odd. The Indian called this territory of Erie fireland. Mahoning county derived its name from the river Mahoning which in the Indian days signified at the lick. XVe know that Muskingum is located near a river, but we do not all know why the Indians gave this territory the name of Muskingum? Since the meaning of this word is town on the river side , we can easily see why the natives gave the county this name. Pickaway is derived from the name of a Shawnee Indian tribe: this part of the state was where they had their famous hunting grounds. The cooling waters of the Sandusky river infIuenced the Indian to give the name of Sandusky to the locality surrounding the river. In the early days the Indians had a reservation in the county we now call Seneca. This county was named after the Seneca Indian tribe. The Moravian Indians had a mission in the territory we now call Tuscarawas which means open mouth. This was long before the white man settled in the valley. Many of our cities have at one time been Indian villages or trading posts. lVe are all familiar with Tippecanoe, Chillicothe, and Vllapakoneta, which are of course Indian names. Then too there are such cities as Chickasaw, YVauseon, and Ottawa, located in northern Ohio which received their names from the Indians. Many of our rivers such as Scioto, Miami, Cuyahoga and many others have the same names as the counties in which they are located. These were all given their names by the Indians. If we would stop to study the meanings of all these Indian names we should realize the real significance of them and should remember the red man that gave us these beautiful names.

Piqua and the Indian HE history of Piqua dates back many years before the day when the white man first entered the old Buckeye State, for the present site of Piqua was a favorite one of the Red Skins, even before the Indian village of Pe-quaw CPiquaj was established. So great was their attachment to this section of the country that for many years after they were driven out of this territory, their scattered tribes would assemble to weep over the graves of their beloved kindred. The main tribe of these Red Men was called Miami, which signifies in the Indian language Mother. The Miami Indians believed themselves to be created out of the dust of the Miami Valley and to have been located near the present site of Piqua, since the beginning of time. There were many branches of this enormous tribe. One of these was the Twightwees who had their town near the mouth of the Loramie Creek, which is located a few miles north of our city. Other tribes who roamed this section of the country were the Ottawas, Objibways, Cherokees, Delawares and XVyandotes. In the eighteenth century there was a bitter fight between the French and the English to establish trade throughout this region. The French were success- ful in obtaining practically all the trade except that of the Twightwees. The Chief of that tribe, Old Britian , could not be induced to give up trading with the English. About 1747 a battle resulted and 'fOld Britian and his tribe were defeated at a place called Fort Pickawillainy, the last permanent settlement in this vicinity by the Miamis. This battle was the first of the French and Indian VVar. Later the Shawnees and many other tribes ventured into the Miami's territory and established many small villages along the Miami River. Many times this section was changed from the French to the English and from English to French. The right to it was settled finally in a pitched battle on the ground just east of the St. Mary's Pike and north of Swift Run, thus marking the last battle of the French and Indian war in 1763. Shortly after this the Shawnees took possession of the territory in the vicinity of Piqua, which is south of the present site of our city. Their first settlement was called Chillicothe, meaning head-town or the council-place. This was used as a headquarters, to plan wars against the white man of Kentucky. There the Shawnees were subdued and the town of Pe-quaw near Springfield was attacked. The straggling tribes, so defeated, downcast and discouraged, moved many miles north to the Great Miami and settled a short distance north of the present site of Piqua. This place was named Pe-quaw in commemoration of their earlier residence. The traditional origin of the name Piqua was told at one time to one of the pioneer settlers of Piqua by an old Indian Chief who was for many years a trader and member of the Shawnee tribe. This old Indian tradition runs that many years ago the tribe had all assembled for a thanksgiving and annual feast. All were seated around the fire which had gone low and showed signs of dying embers, when a slight puffing was observed and up from the grey ashes and half charred embers, sprang a full formed man. Many exclaimed in great surprise Otath- he-wagh-Pe-quaw -He has come out of the ashes. From that time on the place was called Pe-quaw. This refers to the location near the site on Mad River, but the later tribes carried the name along wherever they chanced to go. When the white man settled in this region he called our present city Washing- ton, but the name Piqua was so well established that it was difficult to change, so the town was called by the mysterious Indian name, Pe-quaw, which was later changed to Piqua by an act of legislation.

The sturdy figure of an Indian Chief suddenly came into view over the top of a barren hill. The slow pace of the horse and the weary droop of the rider gave them the appearance of having traveled a great distance, but suddenly the Indian jerked himself erect and shading his eyes with his slim hand, gazed a second in the distance and then leaning over to the horse's ear gave a shrill cry and the trained animal leaped into a swift gallop toward a thin curl of smoke. The horse and rider tore into a circle of wildly dancing Indians, two of whom were in the act of killing a prisoner by torturing him with fire. Tecumseh, for that was the Chief's name, sprang from his horse, caught the cruel Indians, one by the throat and one by the hair and drew them to the ground, then snatching their weapons he brandished them wildly in the air and dared an Indian to attack the prisoner again. Tecumseh was chief of a band of Kiscopoke Indians, a branch of the Shawnee Tribe. As much as Tescumseh loved war and hated the white man he was never- theless like the other intelligent chiefs, such as Black-Hoof, in loathing the pract- ice of torturing and burning prisoners. However the restless spirit of the tribe soon became apparent in Tecumseh and he decided to take a small party and go westward for adventure. - One morning while hunting through the woods for meat Tecumseh was aroused by the war cry of some Indian tribe resounding over the hills. He ran swiftly to his horse and rode to the top of the nearest hill and signalled the other tribe by the usual signal of smoke. The next day found Tecumseh and his small party engaged with the Cherokees in a war with the whites under the leadership of Capt. Harrison. The result of this bloody war caused Tecumseh to become the terrible enemy of Harrison. The few remaining Kiscopokes journeyed on to the great Miami River where they rnet and finally joined the Delawares. One evening while the tribe were peacefully reclining around a dying camp fire one of the Delaware warriors started a discussion about the plans of the great Mingo chief, Pontiac. For some time Pontiac had hoped to check the blood- thirsty feeling of one tribe toward another, but had never been successful. Tecumseh listened quietly to the discussion and finally resolved to himself that he would attempt to execute the plans of Pontiac. Before sunrise the next morning he rode swiftly from camp and headed eastward toward the rising sun. In a short time he found himself in the territory of the XVyandots, whose cooperation was necessary as they were the holders of the 'Lgreat belt which had been the symbol of union in previous wars. The great infiuence of Tecumseh finally won the sympathy of the warlike tribes and he rode away to Profits Town where he solicited the Miamis and the Vlleas and then prepared to meet Black Hoof the great chief of the Shawnees. Black-Hoof, had bravely led the Shawnees in all the Ohio VVars until the Treaty of Greenville, but his spirit was broken during the battle at Fort Wayne when he realized the uselessness of fighting against the whites any longer. From that time on he preserved his infiuence for peace. He was the bearer of the celebrated letter of Thomas jefferson, written to the Shawnees with the governor's proposition to purchase the Shawnees' land. It was only through his great power and infiuence that the Indian Chiefs finally consented to touch the VVampum Belt which was the emblem of peace. So it was this Chief who stood in his tent with arms folded, quietly listening to the eloquent speech of Tecumseh concerning Pontiac's plans of consolidation. 98 Q X?QX',R,X,S3Q' 'XX.N,N.N,.RY .X.X.X.k. . .. . . -.

Tecumseh raised his hand in farewell and departed. Although his spirit was weakened and he saw his dreams of success beginning to crumble, he determined not to give up until he had visited the famous Mingo chief, Logan. This Mingo chief towered more than six feet in the air and weighed 200 pounds. His strong character was expressed in his still, quick eyes, his square jaw and firm mouth. He certainly had the lofty bearing of a true savage. How- ever, Logan had been intimate with the whites the greater part of his life, and at this time offered his services to Col. Johnson when the latter desired the removal of American women and children to Ft. Piqua. So again Tecumseh's proposition was frowned upon and he stalked slowly away. He madea last effort to unite the lYyandots and the Senecas but was finally denounced as a murderer near Tippecanoe and the courageous Indian sank into obscurity. One great chief could not so easily be influenced by another so the plans of the great Pontiac were never executed. ELEANOR XVHITE. The Face on the c'Indian Penny XVONDER if any of us high school pupils would be able to answer the follow- ing question if we were given it in a test. Do you know the name of the girl whose face appears on the so-called Indian penny? I even doubt if many or any of our honored and brilliant Senior Class could answer this question, if, perhaps it were given on one of their famous intelligence tests. I was once asked this question and as I was hopelessly unable to answer it, I was told to read a certain article found in the Pittsburgh Leader of about ten years ago. The article was very interesting and certainly changed my idea concerning the Indian penny. Most everyone today supposes the face to be that of an Indian maiden, but this is certainly a mistaken idea. It is said that in 1835 the government of the United States offered one thousand dollars for the most acceptable design which could be placed upon the new one cent coin, soon to be issued. About this same time some Indian chiefs, who were traveling from the north- west arrived, one day, at Philadelphia to inspect the mint. The chief engraver at that time was james Longacre, who very kindly invited them to his home. Mr. Longacre had a pretty ten year old daughter whose name was Sarah. During the evening, in order to please her, one of the chiefs removed his war bonnet and feathered helmet and placed it on Sarah's head. This sight was so striking that an artist, who was also the guest of Mr. Longacre, immediately sketched her and gave the picture to her father, who, knowing of the competition for a likeness to go upon the cent, determined to enter the sketch for the premium offered by the government. To his supreme delight and the happiness of his daughter the officials accepted it. Thus, the face of the child, Sarah Longacre, appeared on the new coins, which began to be issued in 1836. Because she wore the Indian head-dress, this copper coin is often called the Indian penny.

Guess I will go up in the attic and look for that old gray sweater of mine. I want to wear it on the hike Monday night after school. Mother, where did I put that old gray sweater of mine? I can't remember. Maybe it is in this old trunk. I'll look anyway. Say, what's this? An old manuscript and so old that it is almost ready to fall into pieces. This looks as if it might be interesting. It relates the legend of Duncan Falls. There was once a white man trapper who came from Virginia and he was very friendly with all of the Indians. VVith the Chief's permission he was to stay and hunt, trap and carry on trade with the Indians. This continued until he discovered that someone had been stealing his game, and so he decided to watch and find out who the guilty party was. He found it was one of the Indians. From that time on he shot everyone who meddled with his rights. The Indians tried to capture him, but his place of abode was unknown. He would be seen on one side of the river and then on the other. Finally it was discovered that he crossed the river through a channel, generally at night. One night two parties of famous tribes watched, and just when the trapper was about to cross the channel one of the Indians shot at him and he fell dead. The rock cave where he hid has ever since been known as 'lDuncan's Falls . Here's another one and it's entitled Roche de Boeuf which means Rock in the River . When the plum, thorn-apple and wild grape were the only pro- ducts, the Ottawa tribes were located where Lucas County is now. The Indians were engaged in games and pastimes-and at this time were not clad in their war paint. One of the young members of the tribe who was playing on Roche de Boeuf fell over the precipice. When the husband returned and learned the fate of his child he sent the mother in search of her papoose by pushing her over the rocky sides into the Maumee River. Her next-of-kin executed the husband, and in turn was murdered. The frantic passions of these Indians at last were checked by the chiefs of the tribes. Here is another legend. Many years ago there lived a frontiersman whose name was Bill Quick. His home was not far from the present town of Kenton, Ohio. One evening when he returned home from a hunt he found his father weltering in his blood on the floor. He then and there took the oath that he would be revenged a hundred fold. His mission was undertaken at once. He would take the heads of the Indians. A row of skulls was soon arranged on his shelves. He had ninety-nine when he was seized with a fatal illness. His son Tom was called and charged with the oath of adding the hundredth skull to the list. Tom accepted, but everything was against him. He was not much of a hunter and was not a very true shot. One day a band of Indians were seen in the neighbor- hood. A shot was heard. Next day a neighbor went to Quick's cabin and tapped at the door, and receiving no answer went in. The Hhundredth skull was there. It was the head of Tom Quick. What mother' Wash the dishes? I haven't had any dinner yet. Don't I get something to eat?

To WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: During the past week or so, I've been reading about Indians-their history- experiencesenamesecharacteristics. I must say that many of the Indians certainly had some hair-raising experiences Cscalping parties included.j In fact, some of their tales were so thrilling I often found myself on the verge of holding my breath when reading them. Now comes the sad part of my story! I have determined to memorize several of the Indian names and terms which I came across in reading. But alas! I find their strange spelling almost too diliicult for my poor brain to master. Hurrah! I have an idea Ccan you imagine it?l Yes! I have hastily formed a plan by which I can learn how to spell the names I wish. lYould you like to know about my plan? Xl'ell, I'll tell you, even if it is a secret. The Plan: To each letter of every Indian name or term which I wish to memorize, I shall connect some suitable thought concerning one of the members of the famous class of '27 from the P. 'H. S. Thereby I shall not forget the peculiar spelling of the Indian names. Now I think that's a brilliant idea. don't you? lYell, here 'tis! CThe plan in action.J Kathryn is a-cute Angle. Arbutus is Grimm. Goldie seems to be a golden sunbeam. Huldah loves the Hills. Mary Lou is a great Alexander, but not Alexander the Great. Anna is Kienle interested in Art. Hannah is not two-faced, but she can spell her name backwards. Norma Boehm claims to be one-third of a certain Trio. Gordon Butts is quick, witty, and changeable. Donovan Fay likes to be called a giant. Alfred has no baked-goods for sale, although he is a Baker. Catherine Schneyer is gifted with the art of giggling. Olive Coffman is our Little Woman . Thelma Lewis is noted for her permanent wave. Allen Pool specializes in losing books. Helen Millhouse delights in making loud noises QD Alethea is a nice name for a nice girl. Hazel is Young. Martha B. likes to sing, f'Martha Lou instead of Mary Lou' . Edna Mae do it if she wishes. Emerson is a great Reeder. Kent Middleswart impresses one as being very bashful QD. 1 Katherine Higgins likes to wander Northward. Louis Beckert tires others by his incessant reciting QFD. Annetta Belle Cromer knows her A. B. C.'s . Margaret Alsmeyer hopes to be six feet tall soon. Antoinette Bursiel dares to do. Thelma is a doubting Thomas. Helen Grunert is a flying typist.

That is too bad for a certain gentleman. Peck Bertling has been informed by city officials that the local streets are not part of the Indianapolis speed-way. King Midas desired gold, but Vera Vorhees has the jump on him. XYhen- ever she goes in a soft drink parlor she insists on a pine-apple Coke just so she can get a silver spoon. lVe might suggest that she ask for a finger bowl also so she can wash the spoon: you know dirty silver will always soil one's pocket. Fritz Gehm used to eat polar cakes: now he just absorbs them trying to find a VV so he can get a quart of ice-cream free. VVhen Nig Comer got his grade card he discovered an idle mind is the devil's play house. Mac Freshour and Fritz Spooner couldn't wait for Lange's to open so they could go swimmingg so they took a canoe trip during spring vacation. The referee had to inform joe Dankworth that prize-fighting is usually carried on in a ring and not on a football held. Ifthe saying Gentlemen Prefer Blonds is true, Bob Stump is no gentlemen. The days of Knighthood are not yet over as far as Earl Flinn is concerned. just let him see his lady with another suitor and watch him fight. Tubby jones likes all kinds of candies but his favorite is that which he gets from Busser's. johnny Jones says he has all the parts needed to make his tin can on wheels run under its own power but the trouble is in keeping these parts together. It's rumored the youth of the neighboring towns sometimes have occasion to say Thanks, Charlotte, I'll bring my skates the next time. Ward Routson is in love with a certain person who has a Roman nose. We'll let you guess. Here's a hint-the person is a gentleman. Now two guesses and the second doesn't count.

A warrior crept out in the woods, And shot his bow and ar'er, It struck the heart of Captain Nig And there remains fore'er. Now Gordon's not an Indian name, Of that I'm very sureg To look at him, he seems a saint- But I am not quite sure. That quiet warrior over thereg Has never yet been bent. A scrapper, yes, that's all we know 'Bout someone's little Kent. Now here comes George, the bashful shiek, So tall and very suave VVe wonder if the girls will say That Georgie's very brave? Let's not forget the moccasin man, VVho always needs a backin' To help him get rid of his shoes: Oh, yes, it's Howard McMaken. The only Indian in all the land Vllho blows on a trombone? just take two guesses.-Yep, your right. It's Rosie's Tubby jones. There's Donavan Fay and jimmy Day- Oh boy! they make a pair: Old legends have it they are wise, Because they have light hair. Now here's a warrior who sat and dreamed About great feats and brawng Oh! how can I obtain these things? So cried little Mayer Kahn. A mighty man was Big Chief Howell, Who's hardly seen to move, Except to stretch himself and growlg And lots of this I'll prove. 104 FAX. xii: ..,,N ....,.N., , .,..,..... . This squaw who seems so very nice Is our friend Mary Rase. An athlete in many ways VVho always takes a place. We see her going through the hall, She never seems to cease To be as busy as a bee, You bet its Evelyn Rees. Into our midst one year ago, A squaw, I must confess. Come tripping in with musical hands. Now here's to Mary Hess. If you will stop a minute, friend, You'll find that I am right, An Indian squaw can't have light hair Just you ask Eleanor VVhite. Now Mabel Spraul is quite a girl Who happy seems to be, Who hops from eve to early dawn, A dancing squaw you see. On Goldie's head is lots of hair But not of Indian hue. I wonder if the thoughts it hides, Could be of me or you? If Marguerite Kerns had color like- An Indian or a thrush, And someone said nice things to her He could not see her blush. The squaw who lives up to her rights Is our friend Hazel Young. Although she works with all her might Continually goes her tongue. With Thelma Lewis, the Indian maid, We find there's something wrong, For she can make a class room laugh, And keep it up so long. Now here's a word about one chief, The famous Mr. Flinn.

Two nifty sisters, always sweet. Are Martha Gillem and Marguerite, Together they work, together they play, And they are ever happy and gay. Dot Rasor, a maiden with golden hair, Of her beauty takes excellent care, She hasn't been with our tribe very long, But in her We see nothing wrong. Mary Schmidlapp, a maiden we all know, In her work is sure, but sometimes slow, Nevertheless, she gets it well done., And she thinks that studying is just fun. Another of our tribe is Peggy Hile, She giggles so much she makes others smile, She is quite an accomplished athlete, too, For many gymnastic stunts she can do. Dorothy Gilmore's head's so bright, That wherever she goes, she provides the light. Wlherever she is, even at night, All other lights seem out of sight Helen Schulz is a maiden fair, Who possesses blue eyes and quite blonde hair. She says she's a little over-weight, But she does not blame it on food-just fate. Margaret Thayer is our left-handed maid, She has many good qualities that ne'er will fade. She's tried letting her hair grow several times, But I'd better stop or she'll hate these rhymes. Have you heard the story of Edna Gillars, Whose faithful beaux out numbered the stars? She Finally eliminated all but one, So now she has just lots of fun. Another of our tribe is Ruth Weldy Who is happy as happy can be, Her smile is always so winning and sweet, That to look at her face is a perfect treat. 109 .. . ,.

Camping Grounds of 1927 OUR years ago one hundred and thirty Indian XYarriors sadly left their old camping grounds commonly known as, The Elementary School, in search of new adventure. All the valuable resources had been obtained from the old camp, so it was necessary for them to look for new and better res- ervations. The tribe of 1927, as we were called, left its old home with heavy hearts and entered into the dense forest. XYhen we arrived at our new home, some older warriors were already living near where we chose our site. They treated us rather slightingly at first but they came down to us after a year. Much time was spent in clearing our part of the forest, but we soon became acquainted with our new surroundings, and after a time our paths were trodden and fortune seemed to be with us. VVe were in what was called the Freshman Valley. Soon there were other things to do in addition to our usual work. Itdid not take long for our warriors to begin organiz- ing musical and athletic clubs. It was not long until we moved our camp forward into the Sophomore Meadows. NVe worked harder every day with a great future in view for our tribe and for our personal good. Our life in the Meadows was one of great interest. Several new studies, as we called them, were added to our daily routine. There were new inventions in other tribes and outside of our camp which affected us, such as the radio, and we organized the Radio Club. Another year and we were in the junior Glade. XVe were now experienced enough to lay down the crude methods and work with much zeal. Our crops were abundant in the Glade and we also had many other things for which to be thank- ful. XYe had an athletic team which always brought us home honorable laurels, when it competed with other teams from neighboring tribes. These events were very interesting. Our band and orchestra made a good name for them- selves and for our school. This year we were on the watch and very alert, and altogether it was a very successful year, At last we arrived at our destination. Vile were at the very top now, on the Senior Heights. The fourth year in our new home was the happiest of all. We organized a new history club which was a great success. We shall never forget our old faithful and looked up to football team. It continually brought home to us banners and trophy cups. Wie certainly had some talkers in that tribe, During the debating season they gave to us their opinion on the questions of the day. During the fourth year we thought it a good idea to reorganize and start out once again. Wie had a meeting and chose a leader and other ofhcers. Some of us decided to join outside organizations. Some of the high school boys be- came members of the Hi-Y, the Y. M. C. A. Club, and some of the girls joined the Friendship Club of the Y. W. C. A. Wle thought we ought to have some kind of book to leave so that other tribes would know what we had done. VVe elected a staff and kept them busy until the Annual was printed. There were at this time just ninety-four in our tribe. In our battles and struggles many had become discouraged and had to be left in our pathway. Now the Tribe of 1927 must leave the protection of the Piqua High Wfoods and move on to greater and wider opportunities. The land of opportunity has many rough and untrodden roads but many of us will make an effort to travel them. Wle move on to this land of opportunity, the Hunting Ground of Life, to make greater names for ourselves and do greater things than we have thus far succeeded in doing. Now we each and every one, with gladness and yet with sadness, give our A'Adieu to Piqua High. MARGARET THAYER. 39 .il O sxwf ii' I L r I 3 1- . Q .. Y .

CXVIII Piqua, Ohio, june 2027 No. 6 Tablets Unearthed By Piquatus- E find many strange and unusual things in Indian picture writing. Numerous stories and much history of the tribes that we should never have learned otherwise are told by these pictures. VVhy should I choose to write on such a subject as this at this time? Here is the answer to that ques- tion. Recently, while workmen were excavating for the new high school that is to be erected on the corner of High and College streets of this thriving metropolis, some Indian tablets were unearthed. The contractor in charge permitted me to remove these tablets. I found there were some thirty of them, all covered with numerous colored pictures, as well as with plenty of dirt. Among the many things I learned as I uncovered the tablets one by one, was that they were not the history but the prophecy of a tribe that had dwelt and fought on this site for four years. As in every thing else this tribe had a few pioneers, some of the warriors living here four and a half years. There was English writing on some of the tablets, but I shall not account for this at the pre- sent. When I uncovered the tablets the key to the solution was not the top tablet. I shall describe them to you in the order in which I dug them up. Often have I been told of the queer scenes one finds in Indian picture writing. VVhen I had finally chopped off enough dirt to make the inscriptions visible, I discovered the first unique picture. Perched on the high C's a Marked Eagle was singing to a school of 93 poor fishes, all members of her kingdom. Above her head was a Red Cloud doing his very best blowing and howling,-which was very good, since practice makes perfect,-to disturb the seas and shake the trees there by creating music to accompany the singer. Red Cloud was the largest of the clouds making the music, so it appears he must have been the greatest of the musicians. And now for tablet number two with more queer Indian CPD pictures, Joseph Long Dawn, -from that name it appears that this warrior never saw the sun rise,-stood alone in the center of the arena, with slain bulls strewn about him. Long Dawn was dressed as a toreador, and was being heralded by the people as the greatest bull-thrower in all the world. The other side of the tablet was covered with English writing, and was the key to the solution. The inscription said that these slabs were not Indian, but the prophecy of the class of 1927, written in this manner to accord with the theme of the Annual. Among other things mentioned, it told that one could discover who Long Dawn , Red Cloud and Marked Eagle were by looking in the Annual where the senior pictures are found. The following tablets each had a definite occupation portrayed, such as engineering, etc. The first of these was a scene in the Ohio State Stadium, before the deciding game for the Big Ten championship. VVhen one reads of the athletes of the class of 1927 one believes there would be many of the class successful in this line, but in this picture we found only three. Two of these were fellows and one a girl, Kate Higgins. Kate could be seen in a box watching the conflict. Her coat was partly open and the emblem of the Ohio Olympic team was showing. The fellows were Nig Comer and Harold Byrd. They were both coaches for Big Ten teams, so the inscriptions said, and were there to fight-it-out for the championship. Though a country can be wild over athletics, there are still some who are prominent because of their literary work. The next tablet was devoted to those 40 5 Y'XXAiK.R' .NRNNX ' ' - -. - 1 1. 'TR ' .R3Y.S1'N1KX'.Y YIXXKK. ' ' 'NNXAXX3-'Q ...XNN..x.... .. . .. ... , . ... f' who used the pen better than the baseball bat. In this Thelma Thomas was sitting at her desk writing verse. On the door to her office was her name, attach- ed to which was the title 'fPoetess Laureate . Mary Lou Alexander could be seen on the other side of the tablet. She had a very dramatic pose which, of course, indicated that she was a forceful public speaker, whose brains and pen, as the inscription stated, had taken her around the world. Next came the scene of a Teachers' Convention which, when I first glanced at it, looked to me very much like a Ladies' Aid Society Meeting. However, upon closer examination I found it was certainly intended to represent a Teachers' Convention. True, there were many more women shown than men, but among the most popular male teachers present was William Alexander, who professed to be not only a teacher but also a preacher. Each of the teachers at the con- vention could be seen wearing a tag on which was printed the name of the subject in which he or she specialized. On Elizabeth Spengler's tag was printed Latin while Evelyn Rees' bore the word Kindergarten and Hazel Young's tag stated that she specialized in country school teaching. The next three tablets represented three pages from the Popular Me- chanics. On one page I noticed there was an interesting scientific article written by LeRoy Shane, president of the Radio Corporation of America. At the side of the article I saw the pictures of Fred Spooner and VVard Routson, and beneath them the statement Champion Radio Broadcasting Announcers of W. E. A. F. It further appeared that Ward had spoken into the microphone and was listening to his own voice after it had been all the way around the woild. The pleased expression on his face indicated that his greatest ambition had been realized. The next page copied from the Popular Mechanics was devoted to pictur- ing a wonderfully constructed dam. Standing very near the dam one could see George Dankworth and Alfred Baker who were shaking hands, as if to con- gratulate each other upon this great engineering feat which had been accomplish- ed under their successful direction. In the distance I could see a figure of a man who was digging. At first I wondered if it didn't represent a gold digger but later I decided it was Roy Roeth, the famous mining engineer. The third and last page of the magazine seemed to tell of nothing but the Indianapolis Speed Races. The most interesting part of this page was the picture of the winning car and its driver. At first all I could see was a lot of grease, dirt, and a pair of goggles above the wheel, but beneath the dirt, much to my surprise, was the face of Chuck VVashing. When I chopped enough dirt off of the next tablet to see what it was, I thought it looked very much like a meeting of the K. K. K.'s, but I quite soon found it to be an operation performed by the doctor and nurses of the class of 1927. t The surgeon in charge was Fritz Gehm, and he must have been hoping for the worst, as near him was his assistant, Marion Bertling. Pacing up and down the hall was an ambitious and, so far, very successful undertaker, Donavon Fay. Earl Flinn, the best pharmacist in town, was trying to get Mr. Fay to buy some new embalming fiuid which he had made. Now I must not forget the nurses, who, in most hospitals, are the only good-looking things a patient sees. Hazel Collins was giving the ether to the patient, while Margaret Alsmeyer, Olive Coffman, and Margaret Thayer were other nurses who were standing near by, prepared to carry out the next orders from Dr. Gehm. This particular patient was a member of the Reverend Gowdy's parish, so Charles had ac- companied his father to the hospital. The next tablet started as though it were humorous and nothing else. It began with 'fThis 851 That , Haig 8: Haig , and many other famous pairs of words. Farther on I came across the names, Gillem ci Gillem and Sansam 81 Sansam . Away down at the bottom of the tablet I found the following inscription, Pool 81 Pool , the new and popular Burbanks, who are now pro- ducing a flower that comes in a sack instead of a pot. Upon turning the tablet over I found a picture of a funny looking old store, outside of which was seen a 41 h Ag.. S ff3s's.x1x'x' 'A Y X'R'NZ15..X.

Q. a N s ...........................N.., .....t..-.Na .................' ' quaint little sign, which said, Mr. Manford Howell, Butcher . In the window of the store there was a large card, upon which was printed Manford's picture. At the side of the picture, I was finally able to decipher the following sentence, I am the one to whom you owe your food Calso your billsj . The last tablet was rather a disappointment as humor, but this one would have made a good comic strip. In the Hrst section, was one of Mr. Howell's employees, Vera Vorhees, the dog catcher, with a large net in her hand, evidently attempting to chase and catch a small black and white hound. Near her Kate Schneyer was standing in a most graceful position and I noticed upon her face that familiar look which meant that a smile was ready to burst. Perhaps it was this smile which had secured her the place of the foremost comedienne on the stage. Now for that cold-hearted Peggy Hile, who was shown on this tablet, standing beside an electric chair. The victim of the chair had been strapped in it and was waiting for his fatal minute. which would be set by Miss Hile-for she was the electrocutioner. 'ATO be a salesman you must have the gift of gab , was the title for the next picture. It showed Skipper Mac Freshour, who, I believe, was now the Secretary of Navy. I could not understand all of this tablet, but I did make, out that Mac was supposed to be signing a bill of sale for a large piece of land in New Mexico. The business heading on this bill contained the name of Gordon Butts, who was the real-estate salesman. On another paper on Mads desk I happened to notice Mary Rase's name signed to a bill from a large store of which she, I suppose, was the leading saleswoman. I wondered if she gained her success by using the motto on the tablet. The next pictures I found were of two dainty Misses from the Follies, Goldie Coffield and Dot Rasor. They certainly must have always had the leads in their part of the show. At first I thought it was rather strange that they should still have the title Miss instead of Mrs. , but after giving the matter more consideration I decided that gentlemen prefer blondes but marry brunettes . Now on the next tablet one would have expected the movie people, but it seems that the person who buried these tablets must have been aware of the rivalry between the stage and screen people, so put a tablet with a full length portrait of Marvin Hufford, a show owner, between them. Not a bit unusual, for we often find a thorn between two roses. The next tablet was devoted to those poor Hollywood movie people who generally growl and groan because of their high income taxes. The first two pictured were successors of Ann Pennington, and while at home were known as Arbutus Grimm and Edna Mae Gillars. Not far from them I saw two spritely dancers, called Mabel Spraul and Ella May VVilliams. In the distance one could see Bob Stump, who was preparing to take some pictures of the ladies. I imagine that he knew quite well how to get the best efforts in the pictures-especially love scenes, which according to the tablet, were usually directed by Red Qffenbacker. On another part of the tablet I discovered a group of young women writing. Doris Durnell and Norma Boehm were writing scenarios, while Charlotta Heiden was very busy composing comedies. Lee Ruh, as once known, seemed to have charge of the costuming of the pictures. The next tablet had Uncle Sarn's men and women employees. The first shown was a member of the Supreme Court of the United States, Tony 44, Bursiel. Then came the post-master of this thriving city, VVilliam Stanton. At this particular time Xliilliam seemed to be giving a lecture to mail-carriers, but I don't know whether he was scolding or praising them. I then saw Helen Schulz and Emerson Reeder working out in a large field, which I later decided represented a government experimental farm on which these two were employed. The next tablet was only half of one, but as I was not able to find the rest of it, I concluded that the person who buried these tablets must have decided to give Mary Schmidlapp, the sponser of the Book of the Month Club , a private stone. 42 i '- ' 'RZX'.KXi'.R'. RZEIXKESLYNN. ' .. . '. 3 'Z 23. ' E Rss.. - ..., . ...., . . I . Two slabs formed a cover for a Saturday Evening Post , so I had to see just why the writer of the stones should save that magazine and not any others. Here, I think, is the first reason, instead of seeing Norman Rockwell written below the picture on the front page, I saw the name Anna Marie Kienle . Benjamin Franklin may have started the Post, but according to this slab, Dick McFarland had his horse tied to it, for he was its owner and editor. One ad- vertisement which I noticed told about Clarence Kendall's barber shops. This ad had been designed by joe Huellman. The next tablet showed a long table, beautifully set and loaded with a bounti- ful dinner prepared by Annetta Bell Cromer. I thought perhaps she was giving a demonstration for a home economics class. Hannah Reeder, along with several other young ladies, was sitting at the table and was prepared to do the food justice. Now for a tablet of business men and office forces. Mickey McMaken's slogan was, I wish you were in my shoes, certainly a very clever one for a shoe-store owner. An interior view of Mr. McMaken's office showed his secre- tary was Hazel Harshbarger, who appeared to be one who could easily ward off bill collectors. Mickey, of course, needed a good force of stenographers, and it appeared that he had chosen three of his classmates, Dot Gilmore, Margaret Yearsley, and Martha Brendel. I next dug up a slab which had on it a copy of a five dollar bill on which I saw Mayer Kahn's signature, as President of the Piqua National Bank. A The next tablet revealed that there were business women in the class, I mean some that mind their own business, too. The two shown there were Pauline Lane and Helen Grunert together with their beautiful shops on Fifth Avenue. Upon the next tablet I found a view of a large Old Automobile Graveyard , the owner of which was john jones. Thelma Lewis and jim Day were helping him out. jim seemed to do all the light work. Please understand, though, that jim was not an electrician. Another tablet was made to represent a copy of the New York Times. This paper bore the names of Kathryn Angle as editor, and Helen Millhouse as associate editor. The first advertisement was that of Dick Meredith's fruit packing house. Pictures were given of others connected with the Meredith firm. Of these I recognized Marcella Morrow and Catherine Foster. The article went on to say that Dick supplied over three-fourths of the fruit peddlers in town. Vtfell, I found someone doing good if the tablet picture was true, for I saw Irene McMaken working as a foreign missionary. Kent Middleswart had a tablet all to himself. He was not so big, but on the same slab was a picture of the Y. M. C. A. of which he had charge. All great musicians don't have to have their names ending in 'fiski for I saw a picture of Frieda XVoods, the great violinist, and Paul Jones, baritone soloist, and they certainly did not have Polish names. Then I found Eleanor VVhite posing for a cover of Vanity Fair . On another part of this same tablet was a picture of julia Haveman who was decorat- ing the interior of a ship's cabin. After digging to see if there were any more tablets, I found one headed, Variety is the spice of life . Then came the picture of a business block. On the corner above Louis Beckert's clothing store, where Margaret Kerns is a cashier, Huldah Hill had a gym class for business people. Separating Marie Kennedy's candy kitchen and Ruth VVeldy's beauty parlor was Margaret Morrin's private school. According to an old Annual there were two girls missing. I guess the tablet for them was lost, but I then got out the old family album in which I found an article mentioning that Mary Hess played the organ and Mary Maurer sang at my grand-parents' wedding. Well, this article was not really Indian but the tablets fooled me and I thought I might try fooling you in the same way. GORDON BUTTS. 43 is , , ,,. 'X The Tribe of TwentyfSeven In the valley of Miami, On the shores of that fair river, Nestles by its flowing waters, Piqua, home of many tribes and classes, And among them all, the greatest Class of nineteen twenty-seven. Should you ask me whence these visions Of fair maids and warriors mighty, VVith the dew and damp of conquest Shining on each noble forehead: VVhence these stories and these verses, VVith the spirit of the schoolroom, Rushing, surging as great rivers, VVith their frequent repetitions And their wild reverberations, I should answer, I should tell you, From the wigwams by the river, Come these warriors and these maidens, Come to strive and come to conquer, As have other tribes before them. If yet further you should ask me, Saying, Have they won the vict'ry? I should answer, Do not hurry, Wait and seeg be very patient: Time alone can tell the story Of achievements in the future That this tribe may have in keeping. To our chief and all his helpers, Much is due for their wise counselg For the aid they all have given In the building of this nation, Of the tribe of twenty-seven, In the valley of Miami, By the waters of that river, Flowing by the many wigwams Of the tribes of fifty seasons. Then all hail! all hail, brave warriors And fair maidens, give your greeting To our dear old Alma Materg And to teachers, friends, and schoolmates, Say farewell with smiling faces, As you leave your well loved high school, On the shores of that fair river, In the valley of Miami.

Are we really Alumni now? 48 5 ff Q E usually think of the annual number of the Piquonian as a record of activities carried on by the students of the high school, but we should not neglect to mention the former students of Piqua High whom we now call the Alumni. lt is through the work of this group that the world knows of Piqua High School. Few realize perhaps, how many of the Big Chiefs of Piqua are graduates of the Piqua High School. Quite a number have returned to Piqua after availing themselves of a more complete education and have performed useful service for their community. lVe are indeed fortunate in having in our city judge VValter XV. jones, '72, who has very successfully performed his duties as judge of the Court of Common Pleas for a number of years. judge jones was next to the youngest graduate of Piqua High School ever to receive a diploma. After his graduation he studied law with his father. At the earliest possible date he was admitted to the bar, although two years previous his study of law was completed. judge Jones de- serves much credit and honor for his success in this profession. g Another one of our alumni who has followed the profession of law is J. Harrison Smith, '8-1. He attended both Ohio Xlieslyan University and Harvard. He has served as mayor of our city and at present is practicing law. The president of our city council is a graduate of Piqua High, Fletcher S. Moffett, '9O. After attaining his degree at Ohio Wfesleyan University, he became principal of the high school at Leadville, Colorado. Later he became instructor of science in the schools at Pueblo, Colorado. Following that he secured the position of principal of Harbor High School, Ashtabula, Ohio. During the VVorld VVar, he was a Y. M. C. A. Secretary at Camp Sheridan, and now in addition to his civic duties, is efhciently serving as a teacher in the high school of our city. Two of Piqua's leading physicians are among our alumni. They are Clark E. Hetherington, '93, and Robert D. Spencer, 'O-1. Dr. Hetherington attended Ohio VVesleyan University and completed his education at the Chicago Medical School. Dr. Spencer, after completing a course at VVooster, also finished his medical training at the Chicago Medical School. Among our dentists, we find two who are graduates of Piqua High, Wilbur H. Munger, '83 and Chester W. Sheridan, '96. Dr. Munger attended the Dental School at Cincinnati, and Dr. Sheridan took a course in Dentistry at the Univer- sity of Cincinnati, to gain a fuller knowledge of his chosen profession. 49 1 K. 1 1' j 5. -V . -4 5 X3-N -- - Y: --.o'..'-. ' .. . 1 -3 1 .W . . - HA is ..,.,. .i ,.x. .. .... Several of the leading manufacturers of Piqua are graduates of our high school. Allen G. Rundle, '98, after graduating here, attended Exeter, then at the death of his father, he undertook the responsibility of the Rundle Medicine Company, which he now so successfully is supervising. Leo M. Flesh, '80, was a student at Poughkeepsie, New York, and is President of the Atlas Company. Edgar A. Todd, '82, after graduation entered the retail business: he was also the owner of a book store: now his interests are with the Atlas Company also. After john L. Spiker, '89, completed his course of study at Piqua High, he be- came a traveling man for a number of years, at present he has one of the control- ling interests of the Superior Underwear Company. Another of our alumni, still in Piqua is Charles B. Upton, '02. He was with the Electric Light Company for a few years, then he was employed in the office of the French Oil Mill and Machinery Company. Now he is Vice President and General Manager of the plant. A very successful merchant of our community is Leo Louis, '84, who has been in that business since his graduation from high school. Leroy Hager, '97, graduated from Ohio State University and is now a prominent man in our city. Another Piqua business man among our alumni is Arthur Yenney, '09. He attended the University of Pennsylvania and later became a merchant. John S. Zollinger, '05, after graduation chose to further his education at the University of Michigan. At present he is connected with the S. Zollinger Wholesale Company in this city. We have two members of the alumni on the Board of Educationg Frank P. Brotherton, '71, and Frank P. Irvin, '80. Mr. Brotherton since his graduation has been in the office of the Woods Planing Mill where he is a valued employee. Mr. Irvin completed a course at Ohio VVesleyan University after which he be- came a banker, now he is affiliated with the Citizen's National Bank. Two more prominent bankers have graduated from Piqua High. VVarren S. Gravett, '06, started to work for the Citizens' National Bank before he had completely finished his course at high school. He has continued there since and is a very efficient banker. August C. Clouse, '94, also was employed at the Citizens' National Bank after his graduation and later became the Cashier of the Piqua National Bank and Trust Company. When we see how successful former graduates have been and how many have become Big Chiefs, it is a challenge to the class of '27 to be as useful and helpful to whatever community they may dwell in after completing their education. Our alumni have most heartily supported our activities and have shown their interest in our work. If we look over the sidelines at our athletic contests, or notice the audience at our Lyceum Course or School plays and various other activities, we can readily see how interested the former graduates are, despite other demands on their time and their business interests. VVe appreciate their support and hope sincerely that their interests will continue and that the members of the Class of '27 may be as hearty in their support of the Piqua High School.

Since this organization was started in 1917, it has grown from a small group of musicians into a large concert band. Piqua High School can be proud to say that it was a pioneer in Ohio in the organization of a school band. Today such a band is one of the outstanding features of music in public schools all over the United States. The band played for all of the football games except one this year, as well as for many of the home basketball games. It filled contracts to play for various events in the city, such as the merchants' Fall and Spring Openings. It appeared before the State Parent Teachers' Association Convention held in the city. The school as well as the band gained much publicity by the out of town engage- ments filled: the boys played for the Charles Paddock Meeting that was held at the Memorial Hall, Daytong they accepted the invitation to play at the speedway at Indianapolis, May 303 they also furnished the music for the En- gineers' Club Banquet at the National Cash Register at Dayton. The Ninth Annual Band Concert was given on Friday, April 22, and was a success in all respects. The program given by the band was as follows: Medley-Overature-Ace High ...,.,..,.,.,,,,,,....,,,,A..A..,,...,t..i.,,,i.,.,,,,............i.,e,.e.,.,.

As these seniors graduate, their places are filled by members of the Junior Band. This plan keeps the Senior Band well supplied with musicians and also gives the juniors something for which to work. Much credit goes to Mr. Gates, the director, for the development of organizations such as these. Band work is his pet Hhobbyu. The officers of the band are: Paul jones, presidentg George Rundle, secre- tary: Ray Crabtree, treasurer, James DeWeese, librarian.

Twenty-six members, playing nearly all the instruments which are used in a symphony orchestra, make up this year's group. In the past few years, it has been found necessary to hold a practice twice each week in order to meet all the demands which have been made upon this organization. Much hard work is necessary. The orchestra has appeared many times this year. At the beginning of most of the Lyceum numbers, the members were in their places to render a half-hour program. These programs usually consisted of one or two classical numbers and a march. Some of the other occasions for which the orchestra has been called upon to present a program were: at the opening of the two debates which were held at Piquag at the Parent-Teachers' Convention: and at the opening of the plays which were given this year by the junior High Schools. During commencement week the orchestra was a big help to the Senior Class. At this time it was kept very busy practicing new music for the various occasions. Some of the selections which have been worked upon and presented at differ- ent times during the year were: The Symphony Series, by Frederick Stock, and the Standard Theater series. Many semi-classical and popular numbers have also been practiced and given. The orchestra has been highly complimented for the splendid programs given. The success is due not only to the great interest of each and every mem- ber, who tries to make it the best orchestra which has ever been in Piqua High, but also to Mr. Gates, our musical leader, who is always ready and willing to give his time, whenever he is called upon to do so. More and more pupils each year are entering the bands, orchestras, and glee clubs of Piqua High and of the junior highs. Many pupils start taking lessons upon a musical instrument in order to be able to enter one of these organizations. After they are far enough advanced, they usually enter the junior orchestra or band. Here they are trained to play with others. Each year as members from the High School orchestra graduate, their places are hlled by members from the junior orchestra. By this method the high standard is kept up. Few people enter the high school organization who have not formerly had orchestral training. The members of the orchestra of this year are: Piano Jane Palmer First Violins Beth Fisher Genevera Hanke Harriet Koester Charles Etherington Martha Reese Edwina Walker Second Violins Williard Poff Ellis Elbrecht Irene Hill Janice Packman juan Salom Fred Denman Clarinet Ward Routson Cornets james Fay Robert Sheridan Herman Chrowl Cello i Esther Winner Flute Richard Meredith 55 Bass Robert Bicker String Bass Fred Gehm Drums Clark Gabriel Alto Clarinets Evon Benning Bassoon Ray Crabtree Trombone Paul jones FRIEDA WOODS. ,fe K , ,.

It has sung at the Football Banquet, the Convention of the Parent-Teachers' Association, at the Debate, the Baccalaureate Sermon and the Annual Band Concert, each time winning splendid applause. The Annual Band Concert was probably the most important event of the year for the Club. During the intermission the girls appeared in their attractive uniforms of white and black and sang several beautiful numbers. The selections used, which were the regular three part arrangement, were: I Love A Little Cottage ..C............,.,,............,,.,,..,,,...,......,....., Stott-O'Hara Lassie O'Mine .,....,.,....,...t.t..,.,,.,.,..,,...s...,..i.t..,,.....s..t.,i.,.s.,tss I i.., Bowles-Malt Duna ...... ,....L.......,,,.,.,,....,......,.,....,,,,,,...,,.,....,.,,,....,,,,......,., P ickthall-McGill In addition two popular numbers from The Vagabond King were given: Only a Rose . Florida, the Moon, and You. These were accompanied by Mary jane Dunkle and jane Hunt who played very nicely on a complete set of marimbas. The program was enjoyed and appreciated very much by the large audience. The Glee Club is not a voluntary organization but one in which the mem- bers must have certain vocal qualifications to gain admittance. This year it has had more members than ever before, the enrollment being forty-seven. The Club has studied various interesting subjects such as. voice building. correct standing position and correct breathing. By considering these different phases of glee club singing, not only have the members developed a better glee club but each individual member has been given a better knowledge of vocal improvement. The regular attendance and the interest of the members have proved the popularity of this musical organization among the girls of the high school, and the excellent work done has shown what can be accomplished under such a leader as Mr. Gates.

Boys' Glee Club HE Boys' Glee Club is one of the best known musical organizations in the high school. For the past two years the Boys' Octet has taken the place of the Boys' Glee Club, but this year, because of the enthusiasm and the interest in singing on the part of a number of boys who were not in any other musical organizations. Mr. Gates organized a Glee Club. Although this organization was started only two months ago. it has shown rapid progress. The boys sang before the school a number of times, and also furnished a part of the program for the Ninth Annual Band Concert, which was given April .ZZ when the following numbers were sung: lffome lYhere My Love Lies Dreamin' ,.,. , .,.,,,,, .,..,... F Oster 2-lVIammy's Lullaby ,..,,.,.....,.......,..,.r.,....,.......,.,........,.................... Fargett These numbers were very difficult because they were strictly in four part harmony for men's voices and of Standard Octavo Editions. The boys meet the seventh period on Friday and in addition have had special meetings, which Mr. Gates called, to better train the boys' voices. This period on Friday is the same as an ordinary class but no credit is given for this work or for the work of any of the other musical organizations. This is because it is not classed with the rest of the studies in the diilerent courses. The following boys comprise this year's group.

Piqua scored 303 points to their opponents' 12. For the first time in several years Piqua High met and defeated Steele High of Dayton, on the latter's gridiron, by a score of 7 to 6. This was the first game of the season and as it was accompanied by a drizzling rain it was necessary for both teams to play more or less defensive football. Piqua finally won by a point after a touchdown which gave the necessary margin for a hard fought victory. Fostoria. which was next on the schedule, loomed dark, due to past per- formances on the gridiron, but Piqua put the team away in easy fashion by a score of 38 to 0. The Springfield game was considered one of the hardest on the Big Red schedule but Springfield was defeated by an astonishing score of 42 to 0, giving Piqua the third consecutive victory. Piqua invaded Miamisburg and won a fourth victory by an overwhelming score of 71 to 6. Woodward Tech. of Toledo, which was supposed to be a stumbling block, proved to be a stepping stone to Piqua's line of victories by handing her the long end of a 41 to 0 score. Piqua continued her winning streak by defeating Greenville in a sea of mud with a one-sided score of 65 to 0. Lima South and Bellefontaine appearing next on the schedule of Piqua's undefeated team were each given a setback by a score of 7 to O. Both games showed the Piqua followers that their team was up against real opposition. The peak of a highly successful season was reached when Piqua met her old rival, Troy, for the annual Turkey-Day tussle. The spirit of the Trojans seemed ta be dampened by a heavy downpour of rain, and they were plunged still further into a depth of gloom by Piqua's annexing the final game of the season by a score of 25 to 0. Piqua fans showed their loyalty to the school by the wonderful support which they gave the team throughout the season. The Piqua Band under the direction of Mr. Philip Gates cannot be overlook- ed in helping the team through this undefeated season. XVith the exception of the Bellefontaine game the band cheerfully met the weather conditions along with the players, giving pep to both the team and their host of followers. The schedule was considered the hardest that any team representing Piqua High has played as successfully for a number of years. Through graduation Piqua will lose eleven lettermen from last year's squad. Capt. Comer, Seifried, Gabriel, Middleswart, Byrd, Dankworth, Pool, Spooner, Gehm, Vlfashing, and Freshour.

IKLJV Basketball IQUA was well represented on the basketball court this year, having gone through a very successful season. Out of nineteen starts the team came through with fourteen wins, all of which were hard fought victories. When Coach Wertz issued a call for basketball candidates, twenty-live or thirty men reported, including Comer, Seifried, Babbitt, Gehm, Middleswart, Gabriel, Freshour and Bertling of last year's squad. VVith these men and the aid of several others Coach Wertz built up a team of which Piqua High may well be proud. After only one week of practice Piqua won her first game of the season from St. Paris, but it was easy to see that the team lacked practice. In the next few games it showed much improvement and defeated Covington and Steel before the holidays. After Christmas Piqua continued her winning streak by defeating Pleasant Hill, Urbana, Troy, Bradford, Union City, Greenville, Miamisburg, St. Marys, and Osborn. During these games Piqua displayed a fine brand of basketball and ran up rather large scores in some of them. The first defeat of the season came at the hands of Tipp City on her home floor. Later on Piqua also lost to Hamilton, Eaton, Xenia, and Stivers. Troy, the old rival of the Red and Blue, met defeat on three different occasions this year, twice during the regular schedule and once in the district tournament at Dayton. P After winning over Troy in the first round of the district tournament, Piqua met Stivers of Dayton and was defeated by the score of 32 to 20, thus putting her out of the tournament. The team was followed by a large number of fans both on its own Hoor and abroad, thus receiving a very much appreciated support. At the beginning of the second semester three of Piqua's regulars, Comer, Middleswart, and Gehm became ineligible because of the eight semester ruling. This somewhat crippled the team but Coach VVertz worked up practically a new team that developed the same old spirit and Hght. The men that played this season are: Mac Freshour Ccaptainl, 'fNig Comer, Fritz Gehm, 'fDick Seifried, Tank Babbitt, Kent Middleswart, Omar Lloyd, Al Lind, Marion Bertling, Howard Edsell, Bob Hilbert, Marvin Stephan, Harrison Yount, Charles Etherington, and Harry Vflilliams. Those lost through' graduation are: Captain Freshour, Comer, Seifried, Gehm, Middleswart, and Bertling. THE SCHEDULE Piqua ...... Dec. 3 St. Paris ............ Piqua Jan. ......

Rss H5 lvl Baseball IQUA'S baseball season began late. In the hrst game we were defeated by the Pleasant Hill nine, but came back into form when we defeated the Bradford team by a score of 5 to 4. All the games this year were played on our own Field. ' The first game was with Pleasant Hill. Vllith Siefried pitching and Gabriel behind the bat, the Red and Blue held their opponents down to a score of two all. Then in the seventh inning the Pleasant Hill lads pounded out four singles and scored on account of our errors. This raised their score to 7 to 2. Piqua tried in vain to overtake their heavy batting opponents but they made only one more run. This last run was made by Babbitt with the aid of Gabriel's heavy swat. Seifried's twisters out guessed the Pleasant Hill boys until the seventh inning when the whole morale of the team was broken by the great lead which their opponents had grained. The battery for Pleasant Hill was Leonard and Kennison. Leon- ard struck out eight men and walked four of the Big Red. He got into bad water several times but was always helped out by a good play of his team mates. Our next game was better for Piqua, the score being 4 to 5 in our favor. This game was supposed to be only a seven inning combat but on account of a tie it was necessary to play two more innings. Babbitt's theft of third in the last of the ninth spelled victory for the Big Red nine. The Bradford catcher threw wild in an attempt to catch him at third and thereby let Piqua score the final run. Babbitt pitched a good game, featuring his big wide out drop. Graef caught these big twisters. Babbitt played a big game scoring three runs and also fanned eight of his opponents. So all we can say about him is that he won the session. Stester pitched for Bradford and Shevely caught. This game was the most exciting one of the season, and kept the rooters and players on their toes. Piqua certainly did some batting. It seemed as if they didn't know how to miss. The opponents also played a good game but fate was on our side and pushed our score ahead, until we were the winners. Our playing season was shortened by cold weather. Then finally when the weather warmed up it rained and rained. This wet weather held the team off the field and also cancelled our games. Looking ahead for the coming year we are glad to announce that only three of our regulars will leave. With these facts in mind we can expect another win- ning team next year.

Track OACH MOTE turned out a wonderfully successful track team this season in spite of the fact that most Piqua fans were a little dubious at the start as to just how strong the team would be. By some hard training and by each fellow doing his best, the squad came through with the right stuff and agreeably surprised the doubtful ones. This year the runners and hurdlers were especially good and fellows who took part in the field events did much to win the victories. The thing that characterized the team in all the meets was that each fellow contributed his all for the team. Team work was the major factor in the victories, and there was an especially good spirit among the members of the squad. The first encounter was a dual meet with Troy. Captain Klopfer and his crew carried off the victory with a large majority. Although Piqua secured only one more first than Troy, the other places won piled up the score of 72 to 50. RESULTS 440 Yd.

He piloted the team through a hundred per cent season and proved himself a capable leader. Comer has also been one of our baseball, basketball, and track stars. Bob has gathered a good supply of letters and undoubtedly he deserves them. CHARLES WASHINGvEx'eryone was glad to see Chuck hold down a position at end on the famous football team this year. Washing was always on the spot to stop an end run around his side of the line and by this he helped win many games for old P. H. S. FREDERICK SPOONER- Fred was no hand for Hashy stuff on the gridiron, but he was the man to break into the enemy's line and stop the players before they got a start. Spooner worked at right tackle and one can say worked because he really put everything he had into the game. Many will regret to see Fred leave since he is one of the best liked fellows in the school. RICHARD MEREDITH4All were glad to see Dick get his football letter this season because he deserved it if anyone did. He was one of those hard players on the line that didn't quit until the game was over. Dick is one of the well known figures around the school as he is in most of the activities. MCKEE FRESHOUR- Mac is another of Piqua's all around athletes. He acquitted himself very well in football, playing end and sometimes fullback. Mac was one of the mainstays in basketball this season and on the track he has won many a point for Piqua by his high jumping ability. Mac hasfnot only been jack of all sports but also master of them and has been a big factor in winning victories for his high school. FREDERICK GEHM- Fritz , our big lanky right end, was surely a hazard to all those opponents who attempted to make a gain on his side. Fritz was also a good guard in basketball because of his long arms and legs. Altogether he has proved his metal in many ways. Keep it up Fred . who Graduate ALLEN POOLfAt left tackle Al put all his heart into his job4and that was suihcient. The enemy never advanced the ball very far on his portion of the line be- cause he had that knack of getting under the plays and bringing them down. The Big Red is going to feel a loss when Poolie leaves. JOSEPH DANKWORTH-joe played be- side Pool and they made a wonderful pair. This combination always worked hard and one can be sure that joe did his share of the work. Although joe isn't very big for a guard he out-played many enemy guards who weighed twice as much as he did. KENT MIDDLESWART-Kent never tried out very much for high school athletics until his senior year. In the last year he made up for the past seasons by playing center on the football team and guard on the basketball five. Kent always played a hard, clean, fast game no matter what the odds were against him. For this reason he has made himself popular among all the students of the school. HAROLD BYRD- Birdie is the big boy who has played the position of guard on our noted football team. He was the heavy boy who filled up the holes on his side of the line. Birdie made a fine showing and old P. H. S. was proud to give him his letter. Luck to Harold. MARION BERTLING-Since Peck didn't go out for football he went out for basketball and received his letter for this sport. VVhen it came to making side shots Peck will leave a vacant place for a good shooter. PAUL JONES-Paul made his letter in football last year but was unable to come out for football this year. He was good material and proved that he could play real football. GORDON BUTTS-This boy played an im- portant part in helping the team through a successful season. He was the one who had all the work to do, such as-lining the field, putting up the tackling dummy, digging post holes, erecting the bleachers, etc. By hard work he won his letter. MCKEE FRESHOUR. W Tennis ETTING off to a poor start the Piqua High tennis team made a bold attempt to come back and hit the stride that has made it, for the past few seasons, one of the strongest aggregations in this part of the state. With a neucleus of three men to build around, the remaining two were picked from the lower classmen who loomed best with the racquet. Handicapped by the weather at the beginning of the season and by the poor condition of the courts, the tirst match, with Sidney, had to be played with little or no practice proceeding it. The team at this time consisted of Charles Gowdy, George Rundle, james DeXYeese, Donald Alexander, and Ray Crabtree. Ray Crabtree was the only player to annex a victory in this first match and Sidney had everything its own way by winning four of the live contests. just one week later the net men again journeyed to Sidney ready to revenge the defeat handed them the previous week. George Rundle was absent from the line-up because of a conflicting golf engagement and as a result Piqua High went 'down again in defeat. A little better showing was made this time though, as both Crabtree and DeXYeese won their singles matches. On Monday, May 9, an old foe was met and disposed of when Roosevelt High of Dayton bowed to our net men. Wlith the additional practice the group of players was able to do generally just what they wanted with the ball. Crabtree, DeXVeese, and Gowdy Won their singles, and Crabtree and Rundle won their doubles, but the two man combination of DeXYeese and Alexander could not get their men, and four out of live was the iinal result in matches for the Big Red. As a whole the season should be a success, when with more practice, the team should be able to trim any team on the schedule. The boys have all worked hard and have tried to put Piqua High at the head in tennis competition. RAY CRA BTR EE. 70 SN - s-wmzxizfxx .. N . -. -:am uszrxzme - U9 uct W ....--s----s--F...

Glancing at the results of the matches one sees that the team successfully upheld the colors. Each fellow did his best to come out ahead of his opponent. The first match of the season was played on the local Country Club course, Saturday morning, April 23, with Piqua's ancient foe Troy. Piqua collected 12 points, all that was possible, while Troy went scoreless. Another victory for the local team was gained on another bad day, when members of both teams found it diihcult to play because of the high wind. Sidney, the opponents, must have found it much harder than the Piqua players for they came out on the short end of a 9 to 2 score. This match was also played on the local Country Club course, Wlednesday afternoon, May 4. The next match was played the following Saturday with the Oakwood team, who came up to the Country Club and defeated the Red and Blue team 7 to 3. Howard Edsell won all three points for the local bunch. The fourth game was played at Sidney, Friday, May 13. Line up for the season: Rundle, Edsell, Freshour, Butts, Capt. Substitutes: Allen, Crump.

Great interest was shown by the girls in the participation in the sports, especially in the three major onesg volley-ball, baskethall, and baseball. Enthusiasm and interest were also shown in the tennis tournament and track events. The volley ball tournament was the first to hold the attention of the girls, and as an inter-class affair, it was very interesting. The following members made up the winning team: jane Wlillower, Catherine Heckman, Beatrice Garbig, Catherine Heck, Marie Kennedy, Katherine Higgins, Catherine Schneyer, Miriam Elliott and Alethea Ruh. Enthusiasm was at its highest point during the basketball tournament. The round-robin system was used and many exciting games were played. The champion team was composed of jane XVillower, captain and forwardg Marjorie Lowery, forward: Gladys Crotinger, guard: Leona Craig, guardg Ethel XVeaver, running center, and Elsie Purucker, jumping center. At the close of the tourna- ment this winning team played the team composed of Gym Aids, and the result of the game was twenty-Eve to ten in favor of the team whose personnel has just been given. Baseball is not considered a girls' game but during the round-robin tourna- ment, some girls were found who could teach Babe Ruth a few tricks. Great skill and wonderful form were shown. lt can certainly be said that this tourna- ment was successful and thoroughly enjoyed by every girl. One of the sports fast becoming popular with the younger set is tennis. Every girl enrolled in a gym class was required to play this year. Those who were novices at the sport were required to join the beginners' class and learn the principles, while the more adept players participated in games of singles. Some really skillful players were discovered. The last event of the season was the mass track meet. This system was introduced for the first time last year and proved very successful again this year. By this plan not only the experts but also the less skilled bring honor to their classes, since every girl is obliged to take part. The high jump, relay, seventy- five yard dash, shot put, and baseball distance throw were the events for the -girls, and not a few whose ability had not been discovered, gained high scores. In the three junior high schools, inter-class basketball tournaments were held which were most interesting. At the close of these individual tournaments, the winning team from each school was invited to play in the Come-play-with- us game held at Central High. From the eighteen girls present, there were formed two teams of nine each, the six having the lowest number of fouls being on the first team and the remaining three, subs. As all the other basketball games, this one was very interesting. This plan was introduced for the first time this year and created a spirit of friendliness and good fellowship which can- not be found in the Come-play-against-us games. Each girl on the winning team received a letter for her work. In addition, the junior high girls enjoyed a captain ball tournament and a mass track meet. Although the sports mentioned have proved exciting and entertaining and have occupied the attention of the girls, their athletics was not confined to these major sports alone. Hiking, marching tactics, folk dancing, heavy and light apparatus work, formal and corrective exercises were given due consideration. It has been a rule that all girls making the teams of four sports out of five receive letters as their reward. Because of this rule, a number of girls at the close of the school year received letters of which they are very proud. Too much credit cannot be given to Miss Jamison for the great improvement which was made and the dexterity which was developed during this year.

Girls, Gym Aid Club NDER the very competent direction of Miss Jamison the Girls' Gym Aid Club has experienced probably the most successful year since its organi- zation. A constitution was formed and adopted by the members on june 5, 1926. The first meeting of the new year was held on September 20, when the following oilicers were elected: President s..,..,ssst . ,,,,,,, Margaret Hile Recording Secretary .... Verda Youtsey Vice President s,,ssssssssssss.ssts Elberta Bell Corresponding Secretary..Ella Farley Treasurer stssssststss Annetta Belle Cromer To become a candidate for membership, a girl must be enrolled in the senior high school, and must be able to pass a physical examination. In addition, it is necessary to be selected by the teacher of physical education at a try-out held at the beginning of the school year, to be a candidate on probation for a period of six weeksg and to be elected by the members of the club after their having witnessed a demonstration of the candidates ability. The members conduct folk dancing, relays, apparatus work, and gym lessons. They help in physical exams and study advanced gymnastics. They also teach one period a week and act as olhcials and coaches in all organized games, as basketball. The object of this club is to stimulate a greater interest in all phases of physical education, to promote and preserve a higher standard of athletics among girls, and to develop the power of leadership among its members. The constitution says that as a reward for a year's faithful service, one section of the G. A. C. emblem shall be presented to each member. Since every member had done her duty throughout the year, each received a service stripe at the end of the school year.

The following officers served for the year of 1927: Miriam Elliott, president: Richard Meredith, vice president, Kathryn Angle, secretary: and Miss Upton, treasurer. The next meeting was held at the home of Miriam Elliott at which time four members were initiated. After the initiation the remainder of the evening was spent solving contests which, with a social hour, completed a very enjoyable evening. The last three members were initiated at the high school in March. In all three cases a public initiation took place before the entire school. This was the way that all the members earned their pins. The Honor Society was organized in Piqua High School in 1922 and since that time thirty-five members have been added. The purpose of this society is to create among students of the high schools an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service to the school by taking part in musical orginizations, athletics, clubs, and other student activities, to promote leadership, and to encourage the development of character. To be considered as a candidate for membership in this society a pupil must have an average of ninety per cent in all studies. The students are chosen by a committee composed of the faculty, and not more than fifteen per cent of the graduation class may be elected to membership. Membership in this society is the highest honor which the high school can give to the members of the Senior class and every one appreciates the honor thus bestowed. MARY K.

This league is composed of Urbana, Sidney, Bellefontaine, Troy, and Piqua. The try-outs to select the members of the team were held the first of the year with members of the faculty acting as judges. The nine success- ful candidates were divided into the affirmative and negative teams, with one member acting as librarian. The question selected this year for debate was as follows: Resolved, that the intertallied war debts should be cancelled by the nations concerned. The lineup of the Piqua teams was as follows: AFFIRMATIVE: john Fuller, Marian Frances Hill, Clark Gabriel and jane NVillower. NEGATIVE! Earl Flinn, Richard McFarland, Harriet Koester, and Mary Lou Alexander. LIBRARIAN: Robert Sheridan. The first series of debates was held on Friday, March 4. Piqua's affirmative team met the Bellefontaine negative team at Bellefontaine, and was defeated by a vote of three to nothing. The Piqua negative team entertained the Urbana affirmative team and won the debate by a decisive vote of three to nothing. The last series of debates was held on March 18, with the Piqua negative team meeting Sidney's affirmative team on the Sidney floor. After a very spirited debate the Sidney team was declared the winner by a two to one vote of the judges. On the same evening the Piqua affirmative team met the Troy negative team in a very interesting and close debate. Piqua was, however, awarded the debate by a two to one decision. This gave them third place in the league. The debaters all worked hard and deserve the honor that is theirs. The teams were under the supervision of Mr. Moffett assisted by Miss Motschman, Miss McKinney, Miss Zimmer, and Mr. Earl, and to these people much of the credit for the success of the debates should be given.

The purpose of this club is to bring out the dramatic ability of the students who are in- terested in this line of work. At the hrst meeting held in September the following members were chosen as officers for the year. PRESIDENT .....,.....,,..,,,.,.. Miriam Elliot SECRETARY ,,,,,.,,,,,,,,,,., Dorothy Henne VICE PRESIDENT s,.,,s Lucile McFarland TREASURER ,,r,sr.,l,,,,l,4,,,i Melford Gear At the meetings which are held every two weeks very entertaining programs have been given. The pupils that take part in the programs show their ability by reading, singing, playing, or acting in short plays. A Thanksgiving and a Christmas play were given and both met with great success. The title of the Thanksgiving play was The Mysterious Thanksgiving Guest . It was the story of an aged couple, whose boy had gone to war. They received, a day before Thanksgiving, a telegram stating the he was missing. The village parson and the neighborhood gossip tried to cheer the couple in their grief. The mystery that surrounds this plot is a very interesting one and makes the play a success. The Christmas play which was more impressive was entitled, 'fReverie . This is a story of a New England Ex-Govenor who dislikes the way the Christmas spirit is brought into his home by a modern Christmas tree. He is also angry at his sons, not having spoken to them for several years. His wife tries to make him ashamed of the way he has been acting. This proves to be a very entertain- ing play. These plays help to present the spirit of the season to the pupils as well as to interest them in the work of the club. It is through the co-operation of student and director that the success of the Purple Mask Club has been attained. DOROTHY SANSAM. 77 -' -Q . ---N- fin: .. . 1 -. - - A ....., , -Ha ,, , - , ,.

As is customary at the first meeting of any newly organized club, the most important feature of this meeting was the election of officers. The mem- bers of the club elected: Srita.

Those serving on the program committee were: juan Salom, Vera Vorhees and Kenneth Cooper. A committee, composed of julia Haveman, Leona Craig and Melville Alexander, was chosen to select a name for the newly organized club. One of the attractions this year was the Christmas Party on December 14. The program committee had arranged a program which drew the compliments of every one present. Every one who is acquainted with Harriet Koester may be assured that her two beautiful violin solos were thoroughly enjoyed. Perhaps the committee realized that most people are eager to learn how Christmas is celebrated in other countries when they asked Marjory Hager to tell about Christmas in Spain. Then, to add to the Christmas spirit, Juan Salom read a Spanish Christmas poem. Of course, no party would be complete without re- freshments and the committee, realizing this fact, served delicious popcorn balls, apples, and candy favors. El Circulo Espanol meets the second Tuesday in every month and the meet- ings are generally conducted in Spanish. As the aim of this club is to increase the members' knowledge of the Spanish speaking countries, the programs general- ly consist of talks on the customs of the Spaniards, their dress, and mode of living. Sometimes discussions are held on Spanish cities and interesting places. Under the fine leadership of Srita Vance, El Circulo Espanol is thriving and hopes to make this year's club the best of all the six years it has been organized. , RUTH WELDY. 78 - . - .. ..Q ,,, ,Q ,.,,,,,.Q Q .. , .. ., Q, t .C ,.

The French Club HE thirty-three students, who, under the guidance of Mademoiselle Motschman, formed the French Club of Piqua High School, all declare that theirs has been the best club of the year. There are many reasons for this. In the first place they had good officers who were as follows: PRESIDENT ....,......... Elizabeth Hoskins SECRETARY-TREAsURER .,.Marian Hill In the second place their aim has been to impart to the students a better understanding of the French language, and to make them better acquainted with the history, people, manners and customs of France, so that the country would be appreciated much more. Thirdly, their committee, which consisted of three very wide-awake people, put forth much effort in arranging some very fine programs in order to make the meetings as interesting as possible. At one meeting a line Christmas program, consisting of Christmas Legends, French Christmas Story and a Christmas in France, was given by several mem- bers. This gave a good picture of the way which the French people celebrate Christmas. The best program of the year was given when Miss Patterson gave an in- teresting talk on travel. In a pleasant manner she gave a fine and vivid descrip- tion of France and Algeria. Then she showed some interesting trinkets and articles which came from those countries. Not only the members of the club, but also, all of the French students had the opportunity to hear this talk. The other meetings were devoted to the study of the history of France. The following periods were described: Reign of Charlemagne, -loan of Arc, the Huguenots, French Revolution, and Napoleon. Lastly, all of the members showed their interest and enthusiasm by co- operating, in order to make their club the best one of the school. They wish good luck to the French Club of the next year, and as enjoyable meetings as they have had. NORMA BOEHM. 79 at ttssi lv, N I I, x ! . 1 X . N l History Club HISTGRY CLUB! Of all the monotonous clubs I can think of I believe that would bore one most! This was the remark of one of our fair seniors when she was told that a History Club was to be organized this year. Several of her friends were joining so she just had to join because they did. After she had attended the first meeting where she heard some of the honorable orators of the club give their views of Indians and Indian Life, she decided that she would really enjoy attending another meeting, not because her friends were going, but because she was interested. She was interested for she had been made to see the Indian as he really was and she hadn't been bored either. By showing this interest she also showed that her prejudices were beginning to weaken, but the History Club had not yet won the battle over them. The heroine of our story has particular Weakness for relics: all of her life she has made a study of them. Even as a little girl she took long walks through fields hunting arrow heads and she had spent hours in all the museums to which she had access. So, you see how truly the blade of the club touched her weak spot when it started a study of relics. My! how she enjoyed the old weapons and papers that Mr. john Rayner so kindly loaned. But the Final blow in behalf of that monotonous History Club was struck when it sponsored the bringing of the Yale Chronicle Series to Piqua. Like most of our high school students she enjoyed nothing more than agood movie, especially one with a historical back ground, but best of all expressing it in her own words, just think! XVe will run on Friday schedule two days a week and besides get to see a good movie for a nickel, Oh! that wonderful History Club! , - The following oliicers helped convince this young lady that a History Club is interesting.

The thing that made this possible was the organization of the Home Economics Club under the supervision of Miss Sarah Long. At the hrst meeting of the year which was held on Monday, November the first, the following officers were elected to preside at each of the following meetings to be held every other Monday. PRESIDENT ..t.,,,,,................. aaa..aa.aaaaa.a, J ewell Long VICE PRESIDENT ,..,,, ,.,,,,,,,.,.,.....,..,..,.. ............

Rachel Hauschildt CHAIRMAN OF ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE ,...,... Martha Rees Ellen Ward was elected to take Olive Sharp's place as secretary when the latter withdrew from Piqua High School at the beginning of the second semester. The meetings were given over to making fancy work such as lunch sets, table scarfs, and dresser sets, which would add a touch of color to the home. Some of the members made very beautiful lamp shades of bright colored silks, while still others delighted in the making of very pretty lunch sets of oil cloth. This work is useful as well as entertaining. It also teaches economy in beautifying the sur- roundings. The programs for each meeting usually consisted of talks about house decoration for the different holidays, household budgets, fashions of the day or stories and poems that corresponded with the season of the year. The Club had a very delightful Christmas party on lNednesday, December fifteenth in the serving room. After the games and contests the members ex- changed gifts. This event will long be remembered as one of the most enjoyable of the club year. The other social functions along with the work and study of the club, will make this year an outstanding one that will not be soon forgotten by the members of the 0I'gaI11Z8.tlOI1. 81 ix xsxs zszxzwxx ' .. -, .N --R . .xx,gxWA - Nzxxxxxxvxx. . .

The Science Club proved to be one of the most successful of these new projects. The aim of this organization is to instill into the students of freshman science a desire for the further study of different kinds of science. This year's club has proved so successful that it will undoubtedly become one of the permanent clubs of the school. This year's club had an enrollment of 18 boys who were under the leadership of the science teacher, Mr. Gauggel. At one of the early meetings the following oflicers were elected: PRESIDENT ,.rcs.sccsscc,c sse..,, C harles Allen VICE PRESIDENT ,,,.,,,, .,I...r., A rthur Hoblit SECRETARY T,,..,..,,.,,.tss,..r,iIs..,.,,eI,,.,rs..,.sr..r..,....,., VVilson Landman A committee was selected at each meeting to prepare the program for the next meeting. The meetings were held every two weeks in the science room or in the laboratory. During the first semester the meetings were devoted to the study of the visible phenomena of nature. This included such things as the stars, the planets, the moon, the sun, comets and various constellations. During the last semester the practical side of science was studied. Some of the things taken up were: science in warfare, the glass industry, and the way in which electro-plating is done. These meetings proved to be very interesting to all the members. At one of the most important meetings Mr. Gauggel illustrated many tests that are used in chemistry. Some of the tests that every one should know, such as a test for different elements, a test for arsenic poison and tests for determining the structure of different substances were taken up at this meeting. Near the end of the semester the boys went out into the great out-doors to study nature and enjoy a big picnic supper. ALFRED BAKER. 82 ll
