Registered Basketball Blarney Jimmie VVe1ch islshort in stature, but slings a fast pair of dogs. This year he was first here-then here-and there: in fact nobody knew exactly where to find .him-just wherever they saw him. Fred Thornberry played last year with the Junior High School and made quite a record for himself as captain of the Winning freshman squad this year. Fred is what might be called a consistent basketball man. Frank Pug Thomas has played lots of basketball in his days, and this season he played with a cool head. Perhaps his most admirable quality is his good team work. Bunker Bournonville is not what one would call a regular point maker. Bunker was always where the ball went, playing his style of fast, quick basketball. Bunker's floor work was of great value to the squad. James Hill taking Davis' place had a big place to fill. Jip lacked the weight but had the determination and fight that counts. Coach Morgan and his basket five were a little disappointed in being nosed out of the District tourney, though their season's record shows them to be a. real bunch of basket artists.

Semor Class Poem THE SUMMONS A golden sound, though not from mortal trumpet blown, Is heard and soft resounds throughout the room. From whence it comes?-Ask the Weave.r of the Loom. Thru our whole lives its haunting golden tone Leads us to fame and youthful dreams, fulfilled, Assuring us to win Dame Fortune's smile, Is but to make the game of life worth while, And use the better traits in us instilled. Four years!- It seems they've flown on golden wings, So quickly by us did the fleeting school-days roll, Each bringing us one step more near our goalg The preparation of us all for greater things. A debt beyond conception do we owe To those whose efforts fit us for the place That each now holds when starting in Life's race: An equal start when sounds the trumpet, GOI And now, far better fitted for life's work, We gladly answer Duty's call to actg But we cannot forget the hidden fact, That in our pleasure, pangs deep-biting lurk: Pangs of regret, that things we did enjoy Are now but memories of the bygone days, Which come to us in myriad different ways, Transfusing happiness with base alloy. With mingled pain and gladness in our hearts We resolutely wait the coming chance To make our faithful efforts help enhance The good old World, by taking useful parts. So now, with hopes for fame and honors high, We render thanks for things we owe to you O Alma Mater true, and bid adieu: Old School, we're proud of you! -ROBERT EARLE EDMISTON. Page twenty-six
