It is, however, the result, of our best efforts to create a book which, for years to come, will be a pleasant reminder of your days spent in Portland High School. It is our purpose that any student who has four of these books when he grad- uates shall have a complete record of everything of importance which has occurred during his high school career. The Racquet Board this year has tried a great experiment. By reducing the old Racyucl to a newspaper we are able to publish this book at the end of the year. It is our, opinion that the students of Portland High School, when they graduate, will prefer to have four cloth bound books rather than thirty-two paper bound pamphlets. The books will be much more durable and they will deal more with what the students are actually doing than with literary work, although the latter is by no means neglected. Also, it is important to bear in mind that the YEAR Boot: is not a class affair but belongs to the whole school. It is only right that the seniors should have a large section devoted to them, for they are the leaders in the school activities, but this book is not intended to be limited to seniors in any way. It is for seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen alike, a review of what the whole student body has done during the year. I Now, as some of us graduate from Portland High School, part to go to higher institutions of learning and part to start out in life, we begin to realize how pleasant and easy our school days have been, and we begin to wonder what lies ahead. Nobody knows better than ourselves how well we are pre- pared for life and what traits we have developed during our school course, whether good or bad. juniors, sophomores, and freshmen, you will all too soon have that same feeling of regret that your high school days are behind you. Make the 'most of them while you can for they are all too short. But let us all remember that the world is the greatest school and experience the best teacher and that there is much to be learned every day of our lives. THE Raquel Board takes this opportunity to express its sincere appre- ciation and greatest respect to our principal, William B. Jack, to our faculty advisers, Miss Hutchins, Miss Stetson, Miss Doughty, Mr. Farrar, and Mr. Thompson, and to all others who have in any way helped us. Without their direction and assistance this book would have been utterly impossible. October 1 . October 1 1Reb letter Eays Teacher's Conve11tion. 6. Portland-Bangor Football Ga1ne. November 1 to 8.

H. Evans OR the last titne the classes of '21, '22, '23, and '24 are assembled. In a few short weeks the accomplishments, the hopes, and the atnbitions of those who are leaving Portland High will be but history, and to some, but memories. Soon a new class will occupy the place of honor, and in all too short a titne the Freshman Class of today will leave its record as history. We of the present Senior Class wish to leave our heritage of experience with those who are to follow. In our high school life we have learned many things not printed in books. We have received new itnpressions, impressions that will last a lifetime, and now as we look back over the four years, we find that our point of view has been altered. We see ourselves again as Freshmen, as Sophotnores, and as juniors, and we realizethat if we were given the oppor- lttnity to start again with a clean record and the experience that our four years have given us. we should do many things dihierently. We know that the best, the biggest, and the happiest four years of our lives have been spent in Portland Iligh School, and a little heartache comes to every graduate as he realizes that after four such years he tnttst leave the old school, that the traditions and the associations of which he has been a part for four years are to be his only in memory. Our high school work has been not ttnlike the construction of a building. The base of the structure was begun in KQI7 when we entered Portland High. From that time until to-day we have been building slowly yet surely. Fen' of our buildings are alike. Some are plain, some, ornamentalg some, sturdy and dependable, some, pitifully weak. Their weakness is not very prominent now, but when the building inspector comes around it is bound to come to light. The important thing in the construction of any building is the foundation. Because the foundation is laid in the first year of high school every Freshman must make his first year a complete one. No one will get the most out of his high school course unless he has school spirit. Portland High is justly proud of this year's Freshman Class, for in spite of the handicap of having to attend school in the afternoon, it has responded wholeheartedly to everything that has been asked of it. The class of '24 has shown that it has no lack of school spirit. When the foundation of the building is completed the walls are next erected. The energy and diligence of the Sophomore student .at this stage determines whether or not the structure shall have beauty and symmetry. The blocks in the walls of your building are as good or as bad as you choose to malre them. Each poorly learned lesson means a weak block in some part of the wall. One weak block which cannot be replaced may cause the wall to collapse. If the Sophomore has absorbed some of Portland I-Iigh's spirit, if he has any love for the school, he will see to it that his work is such that his classmates will never be ashamed of it. The third year in the building process is still more important, for no matter how firm the foundation and the walls, all this work may be for nothing if the junior, losing sight of his objective, forgets the most important thing- study. The realization that his next year will be his last urges the student along to better work than before. The conclusion of the third year brings the building near to completion. The class ot' 'zz has contributed much to Portland High in its three years in the school. 'lihal the graduating class of nuxt fall will be a credit to the school has never been doubted. The fourth year in the construction of the building is one that really completes it and makes it worth while. It has been a full year-full of study and good times. There are many possibilities in the class of 'zt. If this were a prophecy I might dwell upon the leaders of the future who are members of the graduating class. All of us will have occasion to be proud that we graduated in '2x. Our last wish is that the three lower classes here this morning may have all possible success. Seniors, classmates, never forget the things you have been taught in Portland High School. When you have left the Blue and White, whatever worth while things you do, do them for Portland High, Remember the principles that she stands for and abide by them. Fear God and take your own part, and with all Portland High's traditions behind you, may you all live full, happy, and worth while lives. K Et llbair of Sires by Enwmo Peru-: THE CAST T.

E. C. PAGEANT Yr-:An Boox 55 C0l'l'CClZ lEIlQll5b Clllllb Two years ago a few divisions of Portland High School united to attack slovenly speech, a formidable foe. This group called itself the Correct English Club. The meetings were held during the regular English periods, and each program consisted of two distinct parts, the first arranged to emphasize the importance of correct speech or call attention to common errors, the other, devoted to drill. A pledge was signed by every member. Associate membership was extended to anybody, anywhere, who would earnestly try to keep the pledge. The little group grew rapidly, and at the time of the Teachers' Convention, teachers and principals from various schools joined in large numbers. This year the club was reorganized. At the first meeting a group of oflicers, consisting of a president, a'vice' president, a secretary and a treasurer, were elected. These officers, with the chairmen of the four com- mittees and two representatives from each class, form an executive board which plans the work oi the club. The programs presented at the public meetings have been successful because of their originality and variety. These programs are only one part of the work, however. The Research Committee keeps in touch with other movements for better American speech, and has in its scrapbook many articles and clippings dealing with the subject. The Literary Committee, in addition to writing original articles and poems, provides a slogan each week for the school bulletin. Miss Marion Ulmer, the chairman of this committee, wrote the inspiring pageant which was presented at the May meeting. The cuts on the opposite page are scenes from this pageant. The Art Committee stands ready at any time to prepare posters and placards. The slides and placards used at the first meeting are samples of their work. The music, which has had a prominent place in the programs, is entirely in the hands of the Music Committee. Best of all, the individual members have shown initiative in carrying out the spirit of the pledge. The success of the club is unquestionably due to the earnestness with which the more active members have undertaken a difhcult but worth while task. 56 PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL wfflCCl.'5 . 15'6J'flfL'llf, Ora Williams ' HZ: Prexizlcnl, Evelyn Dix Sezrclmy, Esther Agger 7?Z'rI.flIlY'I', Icln Blumenthal Rmrrfrr, Edna Sterling livmlfiffc Ifmml' Louise McPherson Sarah Licker Gladys McGIynn YEAR BOOK 57 Glommerctal Citib- We as pupils of a citizens' school and future citizens of this great country of ours, no matter what road we take in life, should have a practical and sub- stantial knowledge of the fundamental principles of business. The Commer- cial Club is a very necessary factor in the study of business principles. We have the ordinary business principles in school but if we want to get ideas from others the only way to do is to have gatherings where we can exchange ideas. The Commercial Club offers this opportunity. The first Commercial Club of Portland High School was organized Octo- ber zo, 1913, and went out of existence April 2, 1917. From the records of the previous club we gather much information about their meetings, which were varied and educational. Nobody was admitted to these meetings with- out complimentary tickets from the executive board or teachers, which indi- cates the stringency of the rules which governed the club at that time. We have no definite records of the hrst constitution but a secretary's report in 1914 shows that a new constitution was adopted and continued in effect until the club was discontinued April 2, IQI7. It was not until this year, 1921, that the club was reorganized under the leadership of Mr. Chapin. It was decided to adopt the old constitution with revisions and additions suitable to the needs of the club. The purpose of the club is best expressed in the Preamble which is as follows: We, the members of the Commercial Department of Portland High School, in order to become better acquainted, promote the friendship of school life, and become conversant with modern progressive business meth- ods and systems, endeavoriug by such means to raise and maintain a higher standard of efliciency than has been previously reached by conuuercial stu- dents, and assist each other in every way possible-do ordain and establish this constitution for the Commercial Club of Portland High School .... The new club is not yet launched into active operation of the principles for which it stands. For various reasons the club was not able to start until after Christmas and this fact has somewhat retarded its progress. It is hoped that if no other object is attained the members of this year's Commercial Club will be gratified at the end of the year by having rescued the club from the obscurity in which it has existed for some three or four years and by having established a new organization which will be an inspiration and aid to the wide-awake and aspiring commercial students of Portland High School.

YEAR Boot: 61 5' , s G' 51 Elrt Club No school of importance can afford to omit giving attention to such an important subject as art. Even before Portland High School had the splendid advantages atforded by our new building, art had its place in the school cur- riculum. The manner of taking up this work was by the text book method. The aim was to learn the different periods of art, have a good understanding of the various schools, and to acquire familiarity with the great masters. This, however, was all in the abstract. No real demonstration was possible under the system. With our new building plans were made for an up-to-date art department. Now what does this mean? First the pupils are taught to draw from casts. The models are many and varied. Sometimes beautiful vases or architectural models and sometimes statues are drawn, and later in the course human anat- omy is studied and mastered in detail. Often one of the students sits as the model. Sketching is another feature of the course. The students are taken into the open and the beauties of the landscape are transferred to paper. The study of perspective in connection with this phase of art is diflicult but well repays the student who conquers it. The designing class offers splendid opportunity to the student with talent for it. The scope of the work extends from the output of simple blotters to wall paper designing and costume decoration. This work is of great benefit to the students because of its vocational value. It is no small pleasure for one department to be able to serve the whole school, and no department receives greater demands than the art department. Frequently posters have been made. Dainty Christmas cards have netted the school no mean sum. Attractive menus have been the result of their ellorts. The most pretentious event of the year, however, was the designing of cos- tumes for the Fashion Show which was presented May zo. A -t 4 Q 62 PORTLAND mon scnoor.

In its earliest form it consisted of a group of pupils whose duty it was to furnish to the school about three times a year what was then called general exercises, consisting of recitations, songs, readings, and to a certain extent resembling our assemblies, though, of course, inferior in scope and rendition. The Girls' Literary Society in its present form was organized in 1907 under the supervision of Caroline E. Gould, Dean of Portland High School for many years. The following students were officers for the year 1907-1908: President, Lena Carr, Vice President, Ruth Adams, Sec.-Treas., Beatrice Morse, Senior Representative, Margaret Kelsey, The aim of the society has been to provide literary exercises for its mem- bers. The many ways in which this has been accomplished are worthy of notice. Many speakers have addressed the association. Individual mem- bers have displayed all kinds of talent, and several plays have been given. Miss Mary McCobb has given several courses of readings, Mrs. Clifford Snowdcn presented Maeterlinck's Blue Birdf' Mrs. Iohn Thompson has addressed the society several times, and Mrs. Kate Douglas Wiggin Riggs, proved to be their most noted speaker. One ofthe most pretentious performances of the club was the presenta- tion of Cranford in 1914. In the same year the club had a spirited debate on Woman Suffrage. A most enjoyable occasion was the faculty tea given in the old building just before it was burned in 191 1. The girls have willingly responded to any appeal made on them. They presented the school with the large flag of which we are so proud. Our ser- vice Hag is also a gift from them. Many valuable books have been presented to the school, and recently the slogans used in the various theaters during Better Speech Week were given by them. The plan of this year's work was to take up the study of some author and have readings from his works. The author decided upon was Chaucer, and Mr, Libby very kindly consented to give a series of readings. The members have finished the prologue of the Canterbury Tales and have read the Nun's Priests Tale. Besides this phase of literary activity, the club has visited places of lit- erary interest of which our city is so justly proud. They made one delightful trip to Mr. Mosher's book store, and they were planning to visit Longfellow's birthplace as soon as Mr. Iackson returned from the South and opened the old. home to visitors. PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL YEAR noon 65 Eebattng The season of 19zo-1921 found Portland High School an earnest and powerful factor in the field of debating. Our able debaters, guided by a standard of fair play, secured great glory for themselves and the school. They were gentlemen when conquered, and courteous to their defeated oppo- nents. They excelled in argument, delivery, and persuasion. It is to those boys with their grit and capacity that this summary is dedicated. In the early fall of 1920, Portland High School entered both the Bowdoin and Bates Debating Leagues. The Bowdoin League, which was triangular, included Cony High School and Lewiston High School. The Bates League included some forty odd schools from nearly every part of the State. Shortly after entering the leagues, trials were held under the supervision of Miss McCann, the debating coach. As a result of the trials the following were selected for the Bates League: Theodore Markson, William Otis Fuller, Moses Huberman, Lewis Weinstein, Charles G. H. Evans, and Maurice Levinsky. Those chosen for the Bowdoin League were William Otis Fuller, Charles G. H. Evans, Moses Huberman, and Maurice Levinsky. These trials which were lively and competitive created a. vital and lasting enthusiasm. No sooner were the trials over than the boys began to gather material for the first contest. This was held in Assembly Hall, March 5, with Cony High as the opponent. The opposing team argued effectively but lost by a two to one decision. The question was Resolved: That a system of direct voting shall be substituted for that of the electoral college before the next presidential election. As a result of this victory Portland High School matched wits with Lewiston High School for the championship of the Bowdoin League at Bow- doin College, on April 24. However, in this debate a two to one decision was awarded to Lewiston. Much as was Portland High School's part in the Bowdoin League, her role in the Bates League was greater. She met and successfully defeated Edward Little, Livermore Falls, and Rumford High Schools. But Portland's rapid progress unfortunately came to an end when she lost to Leavitt Institute in one of the final contests at Bates College by a two to one decision. This ended the busy debating season of 1921. The summary would not be complete without mention of Miss McCann, the debating coach. Her interest, efforts, and leadership asserted themselves in all the debates. She was enthusiastic and thoughtful, well deserving the praise which has often been extended her, and it is to be hoped that she will continue to remain the school debating coach. 66 PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL Gfficew Presliimf, Roland Wadsworth Wm Pf!IlH!llf, Doris Shaw Sa-rclary, Emily Eldridge Ylmrurer, Carroll Fairweather Language is the key which not only opens :he riches and rhe stores of great literatures, but opens the doors of influential, profit with great peoples. able human Contact :mm aoox 67 5D8lll9l9 Clllb The aim of the Spanish Club is to interest its members in the business and social life of Spain and of Spanish-America, in the contribution of the Spanish race to the exploration, colonization, and civilization of the New World, as well as to acquaint them with the treasures of literature, art, and music bequeathed us by the Spanish Masters. The club is open to all classes that have studied Spanish one semester. The meetings are held once each month. in the music room. From time to time friends of the school have consented to speak to the students of their experiences in Spain or South America. Such visitors are warmly welcomed.

' The membership of the club is comparatively small, for it is limited to those who have studied French two years and received a rank of G or more. The first meeting was held December 8 at the home of Mary Gardner. The election of officers and a social hour comprised this meeting. Through- out the year meetings have been held from time to time either at the school or at the house of some member. For a climax to the year's work, Dr. Les- ter L. Powell gave an illustrated lecture on Francexin Assembly Hall. The pictures which he showed were taken during the war while Dr. Powell was in the army. Following the lecture a dance was held in gymnasium. The French Club this year has proved a live organization and the members have participated in many enjoyable programs. Of the well known fact that French, next to English, is the most popular language, we offer Portland High School as a criteriong for in the twenty-four different classes in the school there are enrolled :Lv luzndrzd andjiw pupils, a number far exceeding the total of all students of all other languages taught in the school combined. This year has seen the project of a fourth year ,French class meet with great success. Miss Torrey started a class in September as sort of an experi- ment, but hereafter it will be a firmly established course. Mme. Naples's afternoon classes have offered the third and fourth year students a valuable opportunity in French pronunciation and conversation. Vivacious talks and discussions have been held on various subjects which have been both interesting and beneficial. 70 PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL QffiC6l'5 Prcridzrif, Malcolm Allen Pia Prcridml, Katrina Schuyler Secrelary, Annabelle Caplan llkmbmr Lawrence Leighton Albert W.

One of the youngest young things, one might say that it is yet in its infancy, is the Dramatic Club. There are many clubs or activities within the school, but this one, started by Miss Ada Davis of the English Department holds an undeniable charm. lt has gone through all the vicissitudes that the new organization usually encounters, and has met many Waterloos, but still it undoubtedly holds its own and will, we feel sure, be a more prominent and active club in the future. This activity aims to give its members pleasure and knowledge. It is not a club where one is given the opportunity to show uff his Belasco or Barrymore qualities to the school. but a club where one can derive pleasure and knowledge in reading and studying the modern playwrights. Two or three times some of its members have taken part in the reading of plays. Although they have not attempted to master the lines. they have at least attempted to forget the commonplaceness of Room rio. At other times members have written and read papers on subjects of interest concern- ing the dramatic world. These-papers have given us pleasure and revealed much which was hitherto unknown to us. Discussions on the modern plays have been held and have proved most entertaining and interesting. So the Dramatic Club, an infant organization, has discovered new things for us. YEAR BOOK YEAR Book 73 lI30l'tl8llb 'lblgb Bcbool CHDCIB The Portland High School Cadet Corps completes its twenty-ninth year of existence this june. It is the oldest organization in Portland High, and many men now prominent in the city's affairs were once its members. Dur- ing the year the Cadets have acted as ushers at all important school affairs and have won much praise for their military appearance. The success which the Cadets have had this year is due to the ability and efficient instruction of Mr. Philip J. Lowell, the drillmaster. Mr. Lowell is a graduate of Norwich University and has served as an ensign in the navy. The major of the Cadet Corps this year is Raymond Reid. Major Reid was promoted from the rank of sergeant. His promotion was well earned as his record shows. During the entire year previous he was not absent from drill nor tardy. The Cadets have been drilling weekly on Friday mornings in the gym- nasium from eight o'clock to eight-forty. Also at the time just before the Annual Cadet Drill and Ball they held extra drills in the Exposition Building on Wednesday afternoons. The companies from Portland High are B and C, while the other two are made up from Deering High. There are not, however, two separate organ- izations. The whole corps goes by the name of the Portland High School Cadets. Company Bhas been under the command of Captain George Day. Cap- tain Day has proved a very efficient captain, as has been shown by the fine progress his company has made. Company C has been under the command of Captain Burton Abbott. He has proved to be a successful and popular leader. The members of his company declare that he is as a captain should be. Needless to say, Captain Abbott has had the hearty cooperation of the members of his company. Of course, the most important event of the year for the Cadets is the Cadet Ball. In fact, they spend the whole year preparing for it. As a result of their efforts in the past, the Cadets have made the Cadet Ball one of the big events of the school year. This year the drill went off in fine shape. In every way, the affair came up to the standards which have been set in the past. The wall scaling contest was won by Company B. PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL ' 'Yuan' BOOK 7 75 CHUM JBHIIU The Cadet Band closes the second year of its successful existence this june. It is composed of students from both Portland and Deering High Schools. This year the band was fully twice as large as it was last year, numbering about forty pieces. The band has been drilling and practicing weekly on Thursday nights at the Walker Manual Training School on Casco Street. Several hundred dollars have been spent for new instruments, and the band has received a great impetus this year. The progress which it has made is remarkable and if it continues to progress as rapidly, Portland High School will soon have one of the best preparatory school hands in New England. During the year the band has appeared in several street parades, and also at two assembles, one at Portland High School and one at Deering High School. It played, of course, at the Cadet Ball where it received much well deserved praise. It made a fine appearance as it passed the reviewing stand and contributed its part toward making that occasion a success. Lieutenant Rubinoff, the ehicient leader of the band this year, was ably assisted by Lieutenant Bryant of Deering. Mr. Lowell and Mr. Goldthwaite are to be commended for their endeavors to make the band what it now is. PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL YEAR noox 77 NYCDCSIFH The Portland High School has four musical organizations, of which the school should be justly proud. These organizations have done excellent work all through this school year, and have been of great assistance in render- ing their services to the school functions. The personnel of the orchestra this year is as follows: Emily M. Eldridge Margaret Sheafe Ruth Flanders Helen L. Bradbury Maurice Levinsky Floyd L. Barnett Eleanor Willis Charles Small Erland Hayden Moses Huberman Doris Mudd Kenneth C. Naylor Lillian Webber Lloyd Morse Marion Carr Philip Jensen Herman Stanchfield David Rubinoff Corinne Lappin Leo Lyon Lewis Weinstein Joseph Dalfonzo The orchestra gave a concert and dance on April 23. The music played at this concert was Hayden's Militaire Symphonie in G Major and selec- tions from Il Trovatore and Carmen. The hard work of the orchestra had its reward in the success of the concert. This concert was the last big event to be staged by Mr. Goldthwaite in Portland High School. Next year he will be occupying a position with a much higher salary in Berlin, New Hampshire. The school appreciates what Mr. Goldthwaite has done for it and extends to him its best wishes for his future success. PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL YEAR Boox 79 CBICC CIIID5 The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs which were formed in middle November have done most creditable work during the year. Shortly after they were formed they united to learn the comic opera, Pinaforej' which was presented in Assembly Hall, February 4 and 5.

Morton, a chapter of the junior Red Cross was formed in Portland High School. A committee was appointed to take charge of the work. It consisted of Raymond Reid 'zx, Harold O'Brien '22, Barbara Beattie '23, Leah Comeau '24, Herbert L. Powers '24, Edith Walsh '24, and Miss Sturgis and Miss Doughty as faculty members. This is the first organ- ization in the school which has an utterly unselfish purpose, that of helping those less fortunate than ourselves. A chapter of the Junior Red Cross had been contemplated for some time previous to Dr. Morton's address although no definite steps had been taken. Her appeal, however, brought the matter to a head and a drive was immedi- ately started. The total amount contributed by the students was 5585. The duty of this organization in the future will be to identify itself with as many worthy causes as possible for relief in our own country and abroad. It is to be hoped that future years will see it continue to carry out its noble purpose. YEAR BOOK lDI'l39 Speillllll Q COUICBI 1flll8l5 Edith S. Bernstein Arlhur Caplan Charles G. H. Evans Moses S.

Ostergren will round out his Fifth and last year as athletic coach at Portland High School. A kind, faithful, tireless, and ever loyal leader, he leaves the school with his victories and accomplishments fresh in the minds of those who have known him. As foot- ball coach of Maine's oldest college, his work will be followed by every student and alumnus of the school he has left, and through victory and defeat, Mr. Ostergren may always know that back in the land which he helped put on the athletic map, there are those who stand by him. In the Fall of 1916, Mr. Ostergren came to Portland, unheralded and almost unknown. But Portland quickly realized that the new coach was competent to place our athletics on a par with the ranking schools of New England. His second year more than satisfied the hopes of the most opio- mistic, especially when Waltham was tor the first time defeated. The team suffered but one defeat that year. 1918 was a repetition of the preceding year, triumph following triumph. In 1919, Portland was picked to meet the all powerful Harrisburg, Pa., Tech. eleven. Shoulder to shoulder against these semifcollegiates, Portland gave a wonderful account of its football prowess although losing the game. The 1920 season also was another series of vic- tories for the eleven coached by Mr. Ostergren. In baseball, as well, Coach Ostergren has brought honors to our school. His coaching has brought to Portland the championship of the Western Maine Prep School Baseball League for two years. So it's with a heavy heart, but ready hand, that we send him on his way. As coach of old Bowdoin, he will place the wearers of the Black and White in the same crowning place among the colleges that he has placed the wearers of the Blue and White among the leading high school teams of New England.

The team was captained by Thomas E. Flaherty who efficiently carried out his duties of generalship. The manager was Raymond Reid. Coach Ostergren, without a wealth of material, developed a machine capable of defeating the best teams in this section of the country. The season was ushered in by the customary game with Deering which resulted in an unsatisfactory tie. Portland next lost a hard fought battle with Westbrook Seminary, I3 to 7. On the following Saturday, Portland defeated Bangor on her home grounds 6 to o. Portland then decisively defeated Thornton Academy I3 to 7 in one of the best games ever seen at Bayside. On October 30, jordan High of Lewiston came to Portland and met with a 26 to o defeat. In a sensational contest Portland again triumphed over Waltham, I9 to 6. Portland then handed Manchester a I9 to I3 defeat on Manchester's home grounds. Bangor High invaded the city November zo. By playing wholly on the defensive they managed to keep the score down to 16 to o. Weather conditions made the annual Turkey Day game impossible, and as they did not improve, the game was called off. The team. of course, was coached by Fred V. Ostergren. Credit should also be given to Orrin IS. McKnight and Dr. Maunix, who kept the players in good physical condition, and to John Murphy, who with his second team de- veloped much material for the coming season. FPWCHUWTIIZUDEW N .

However, Mr. O'Connell did not let a thing like that bother him and he immediately began to get a team into working shape. Having a squad of ISO, he found it rather difficult to pick the six who would work together the best. As the season opened with a fairly easy game and con- tinued that way for four or tive games, Coach O'Connell had a chance to try the different groups together, and also to give those girls who would not play in the harder games a chance to play in a real game. Out of the several trips planned only two were realized, one to Cony and the other to Rockland. The trip to Cony proved a success in more ways than one, first, in winning the game, and second, in the fine time which every- body had. Eighteen girls were taken on the trip which proved most enjoy- able, including a sprint for the train which was made in record-breaking time. The first defeat of the year came when we played Deering. It was a great blow to the team and it was indeed a bitter pill when Deering won the second time. The second game with Rockland was also lost. Defeat, how- ever, only spurred the team on to greater effort and showed what good sports- men the girls of Portland High School really are. Despite the three defeats the season has been a success in many ways. A good experienced team has been started for next year which we can predict to be one of the best in years. The hardest teams in the State have been their rivals and they have shown themselves rivals not to be despised. Much credit is due to the girls who have sacrificed and fought for the team, but they give more credit to their coach who has given up much to be able to help them, who has had to overcome obstacle after obstacle, and who has given the team the pep and enthusiasm which it has had. Also praise should be given to the assistant coaches for their help and encouragement. Not one of the girls will forget the wonderful lessons and experiences which she has had on the basket ball team. Let every girl who can come out for basket ball next year and learn the greatest thing in life-team work! - YEAR uoox 93 Portland Portland Portland Portland 4 Portland Portland Portland Portland Portland Portland Portland Portland Captain Leroy Greely john Miller Frank Cummings - Alphin Gould I 'V Thomas F laherty' YEAR Boon 95 RECORD 38 Parsonslield Seminary 8 16 Deering I3 32 P.

IBOQS' JBBBIZCI Ball Though the I92l basket ball team failed to hang up a string of victories, Coach McKnight's system is gradually giving to Portland High School a basket ball team which will soon gain for the school the eminence in this sport which it holds in other lines. Pitted against the best teams in the State the basket ball tossers won seven of their twelve contests, twice triumph- ing over Deering. once over South Portland, and forcing the champion Edward Little team to a hard earned victory. All in all, it was a banner year and with Coach McKnight at the helm, next year Portland's chances of winning the title place are most promising. Captain Leroy Greely, who incidentally has had considerable experience in holding off the onslaughts of the late lamented enemy overseas, brought into play some of his past experiences and proved a tower of defence playing guard. and he was ably assisted by his teammates. Right here, in passing, it might be well to say that sometimes past defeat is turned into victory when true sportsmanship is not sacrificed for personal feelings. Right at the sound of the whistle for the opening game with Parsonslield Seminary, Portland went after its adversaries clean and hard and emerged a winner in the first game by a score of 32 to 17. Then came the first game with Deering, and there was much rejoicing among Portland fans when we won 16 to 13. Following this came the third consecutive victory when we defeated the P. A. C. second team 32 to 17. The real test of the season came in the game with Edward Little and it was not until the last Eve minutes of play that the victory was decided, for until then Portland was leading, but a brilliant tinish on the part of Edward Little snatched away victory by a score of 33 to 27. But this defeat was well compensated for in Portla.nd's decisive win over South Portland, 25 to 13. Thornton Academy next lost to the Blue and White, the score being I7 to 14. Again Edward Little proved its superi- ority, this time by the score of 49 to 26, but not without a great light on the part of Purtlancl. In the second contest with Deering we again emerged the conqueror winning by three baskets. But a jinx now made its appearance and we lost the next two games, to Thornton and Bangor. ln the farewell home game, one of the most gruelling ever seen on a local surface, we tri- umphed over Cony, the first team to defeat Edward Little in two years. But Cony took revenge when Portland journeyed to Augusta and defeated us in the final game 36 to 19. YEAR BOOK 5 g L , , ff? , ' ff 'ff 1 4 TE-fef , x. , fi sffgnce' gf uw ww., 5.

Every year the interest is increasing and the standards of the game are being raised. In spite of the lack of courts and adverse weather conditions, a team was chosen to represent Portland High School in the Bowdoin Interscholastic Tennis Tournament. Harold Cushman and'Robert Frothingham made up the doubles team, while Albert W. Tolman, jr., and Cushman played for the school in the single matches. In two practice sets, Portland's doubles team defeated the crack Hebron outfit 6-2, 6-3, and in the tournament they defeated Wotton and Heywood of the Abbott School 5-7, 6-1, S-6. After playing two hours with Abbott they tackled Gorham but were defeated by a score of 7-5, 3-6, 5-7. On the next day Hebron won the doubles championship. Cushman beat Sullivan of Abbott, 9-7, 6-2, and at the same time Tolman eliminated Walch of Brunswick, by a score of 7-5, 9-7. Tolman was defeated by Wotton of Abbott School, 7-5, 6-3, and Cushman was beaten by Purington of jordan High, 6-1, 6-4. Wotton later won the singles championship of the State when he won two long sets from Purington of Jordan High. Tolman was one of the four singles players out of twenty who qualified for second place if it had been played for. It was hoped at the time of going to press that Portland would play Westbrook Seminary and 'Thornton Academy and also send a team to the Bates meet. Tennis this year has received a greater impetus in Portland High School than ever before, and while not coming out in first place, has made a good record. It is undoubtedly a rising sport and another year should receive great support. M W FJ 102 PORTLAND HIGH scnoor. +L... 'K - I 'CFHCR The Portland High School track season of IQZI was very successful considering the material the coaches had to work with. Of all the men who came out for track only one or two had had any experience whatsoever, and none showed abnormal promise. The dash and distance men were coached by Mr. Simonton, while the weights and held events were under Mr. McDon- nell's supervision. The following men were entered in the Bowdoin Indoor Interscholastic Meet: O. S. Harris, E. S. Harris, Lewsen, Mack, Glidden, Hennessy, Rich- mond, Cohen, Cameron, Cox, and Otis Fuller who was the only man to make a point. Soon after the Bowdoin Meet a track dance was held for the benefit of the Portland and Deering track teams. It 'was featured by a relay race which was won by Deering. The Bowdoin and Maine Outdoor Meets were held too late to get an account of them before the Year Book went to press. but it is certain that Portland High School gave a good account of herself as she always does. Unfortunately Howes and Fuller were not present the day the above picture was taken. E 104 PORTLAND HIGH sci-mor, 'll3OCl26Q Although the hockey season has long since past, anyone truly interested in athletics cannot help looking back to last winter when Portland High had her first hockey team. It was a complete success. Out of eight school games only two were lost and those two were to the Lewiston Independents who claim the championship of Maine. The lirst game was with Cornish and came out 3 to 2 in Portland's favor. Westbrook Seminary was the next in line and she went down to a 2 to 1 defeat. Our old rival, Deering, was easily beaten 3 to o, along with the St. Nicks who were trounced ro to 1. The second game with Cornish was a stiff one, but Portland came out on top. The Lewiston Independents gave Portland her only two defeats, the first x to o, and the second 3 to r. A game was also played with the Country Club outfit, which, of course, was a superior team, in which game Portland put up a good fight, the Country Club securing only eleven points. The Country Club defeated all the Maine and Massachusetts college teams which it played, besides other fast teams. This record shows that hockey is a coming sport and next year will undoubtedly bring forth an even more successful team.

Before a great old fashioned fireplace sat an old man with white, white hair. The fire on the hearth was burning low, and the dying embers made long shadows on the walls. On Memory's walls, too. the fiickering fire of Life made long, dancing shadows. The face of the old man wore a look of infinite peace-that peace that passeth all understanding. and which the world can neither give nor take away. Over the niantlepiece hung a picture, and over the picture a flag was draped. The old man's eyes grew dim with proud and happy tears as they rested on the face of the man in the picture. The face was tender, and yet brave, and in his eyes was something that woke the deepest response in the heart of the man by the hearth-side, for the old man was a veteran of '61, and the man in the picture, Lincoln! Then the eyes of the veteran rested on the flag, and, moved by sudden impulse, he rose to his feet and raised a trembling hand in reverent salute. The fire has almost gone out, and in its glow the old man seems to see spread before his dimming eyes the years that have gone. At first indis- tinctly, and then more clearly he sees a ship, a strange ship, riding at anchor on the breast of the gray waters. It is at gallant little ship for, for many weeks it has braved the stormy winds and icy waters, but at last it is safe in the harbor. And so with the brave souls on board. 'l hey have braved the winds of persecution and the waters of adversity, but they, too, are safe in the har- bor of the land that brings them their long-sought peace and freedom. For they are the Pilgrims, and of that loyal band was one Ralph Owen. And in the firelight the man seems to see that one whose blood Hows in his veins, for the veteran is of Pilgrim ancestry. And from his sturdy ancestors he received the martial spirit and noble traditions of the fighting Owens. Inherent was his love of the Hag, for the fiag and its principles were in the heart and soul of every Pilgrim when they built their first church on the hilltop, and then their school in the valley below, and these were the rocks on which we built a nation. Again the old veteran raises his eyes to the flag, and when he again looks into the fire he sees a different picture. The drums are beating the tattoo for evening service, and in groups about the camp-fire are gaunt, hungry, ill- clothed men, while others are drilling on the snow-covered uplands. These men have borne hunger and cold and nakedness, and on the hillsides beyond YEAR noox 107 lie many who could not endure the privations and sufferings, and they died, martyrs in Freedom's cause. For this is Valley Forge, and these men are those martyrs, living and dead, of '76. The heart of the veteran lhrobs in sudden pride for of them all none was more valiant, none more faithful than his grandsire, Robert Owen. But listenl Afar off the note of the bugle is heard and then the march- ing of many feet as the sons of the North go forth to save their Southern brothers from themselves. And then a field is seen, covered with white crosses. and a throng of people gathered there to dedicate a portion of that field as the final resting place of those who here gave their lives that this natinn might live. And the man by the Fire-side bows his head reverently at the remembrance of the words of his great leader, for the field is Gettys- burg, and the leader, Lincoln. The sound of the drums and the marching dies away, and the people are lost to view, the fire flickers and almost dies. But suddenly the tlames rise again and the echo of horses' feet is heard- It is that splendid band, Roosevelt's Rough Riders, and foremost in the ranks is Frederick Owen, the son of the blue-coated veteran, laithlul to the name of Owen. Beneath the flag that for years has given them its protection, these loyal men are marching to give others the same privilege they them- selves enjoy-freedom. Again the old man's heart throbs with pride, but at last that picture slowly fades from his sight. Then in the ruddy logs another scene appears, a tall, bronzed figure in khaki, and the heart of the old man leaps-it is his grandson, Paul Owen, true to his name and heritage. In his imagination he sees a huge ship, very different from that in which the first Owen crossed the Atlantic, crowded with khaki-clad lads, and in his imagination sees it land in France. But with a sudden pain at his heart, as if an unseen hand had gripped him, he seems to see another field of crosses, for in the fields of Flanders lies buried all that is mortal of Paul Owen. A long, long time the room is silent, and the man is lost in Memory. Then again his eyes are drawn, as if by some hidden force, to his flag, and the last of the fighting Owens, tears of pride and hard-won peace stream- ing down his cheeks, lifts his head and heart to the souls of the loyal ones gone on before. The fire dies, it seems, at last, but in its last, faint glow the face of the man is illumined as with an inward light as his eyes rest on the flag that sacred memories have made so dear. 108 PoR'rr.ANo HIGH sox-root. llyea, 1Dea, Sobntuq Eng! Bv RAX'MOND VVARD, '2n. Spring had come at last and with it had come the baseball season. The Belmont High School team had been practicing for two weeks, and on the next Saturday they were to open their season with a team representing a big prep school. The Belmont team was not up to their standard of former years. The backbone of the nine was the pitcher, john Day. Some pitcher, the boys said. and that was not putting it a bit strong, either. john had a way of sending the ball just where the batter could not find it. Yes, it was on him that the team depended. , Everybody was looking forward to the courting contest with Lennox Academy on Saturday. They had defeated the Lennox teatn the year before, but this time it would be a far different matter. Not only did their rivals have a better team than that of the previous year, but they had been practic- ing two weeks more than the local nine. However, the Belmont boys didn't worry much. Johnny Day would pitch them off their feet. Everyone said so, even the coach. With Johnny on the mound everything would go great. Then, on the Thursday before the game a bomb shell burst. At first it was only a rumor and no one would believe it. Then the boys began to get nervous and to feel doubtful. The rumor was verified. John Day WZIS dis- qualified because of deficiency in his studies. In the past quarter he had failed to make the required number of points, and would not be allowed to play in Saturday's game. It is true that he had flunked in only one study but a miss is as good as a mile and Johnny was out of the game. The Lennox gang had been boasting that they would whip the local team to a standstill, and now it certainly did look that tvay. '1'he coach went right to work to develop a new pitcher, but it was no use. No one in Belmont High School could Fill John's shoes. Thursday afternoon a dejected, disheartened, disgusted boy sat on the bleachers watching the new pitcher warming up. He was muttering inco- herently. From time to time a few such phrases as rotten teachers, and didn't want to see their own team win, could be heard from him. Later, Billy Boyd, the snappy little first baseman, came over and sat down beside him. What teacher flunked you, he asked. Old man Berry gave me X in English. Darn him. What was the matter? 'l Awhl I just missed three themes and he got sore. I told hitn l'd make them up. n .F YEAR BOOK 109 Didn't he give you a chance to make them up?'l Yes, he told me a week ago but I didn't get time-I told him that I' d do it later. Gee, that sure is tough. HI 'll tell the world it's tough. Those teachers talk about school spirit and then they pull a stunt like that. It gets my goat. I 've got to sit here Saturday and let that Lennox gang walk away with the game. Every time I see old Berry he tells me how sorry he is. He says that he has nothing against me, but in fact is really fond of me. Huh, he must be. 't Never mind, old boy, you can make up your work and pitch the rest of the games this year. Yes, but that won't win Saturday's game, and that is the one game we can't afford to lose. Can you imagine what the school is coming to, to let those birds from Lennox defeat us at baseball? Geel We 'd be disgraced for life. lf we lose it 'll be old man Berry's fault. 'fI'm afraid we 're going to lose, too. l'd like to smash Berry in the nose. The other day he was telling me that he wanted us to win. He acted as interested as anyone could be. Then he Hunks you, the two-faced nut! This same afternoon Mr. Berry, an English teacher, sat at his desk in his seat room. He was slumped down in his chair with his arms folded and his eyes fastened on the floor. A gloomy expression of dissatisfaction clouded his countenance. His lips were moving as they framed words to express his thoughts. I wish he had done his work. I warned him two or three times before the quarterly ranks went in. I told him that he must do those three themes if he wanted a passing rank. He kept putting it off and putting it off and to be fair to the rest of the students I just had to rank him incomplete. He was going along doing nothing. Someone had to wake him up. 'No. I did right in not passing him. I 'm sorry that I had to do it, but I tried hard to make him do enough work to permit me to give him at passing rank. Poor boy, he thinks I 'm not his friend. 'l'he Lennox fans were making all the noise at the ball park. At last the game started. The visitors won the toss and chose the last inning. For the First two innings the score remained nothing to nothing. The Lennox men were hitting Day's successor all over the field. If it had not been for thc good support the visitors would have scored two or three times. In the third inning Lennox scored one run. In the fourth they made another, and in the fifth they got two more. At the end of the sixth the score was four to nothing. The Belmont players were just coming in at the close of the sixth when a bareheaded boy came running up to the home bleachers. He didn't stop a minute but climbed up to where a man, apparently a teacher, was seated. The boy thrust some papers into the man's hands and rushed to the home team's bench. is 110 PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL That inning the Belmont lads scored two runs. In the last half of that inning the late arrival took his stand upon the mound. A roar of recognition and delight rose from the stands as he struck out the first two men up. The third made a one base hit and the next fanned. In the first of the eighth the home team tied the score, and in the last of that inning Johnny Day held Lennox without a hit. In the ninth, Belmont scored once and Day struck out the first three men in the last half. The game was over. Belmont had won five to four. johnny Day was the man of the hour. It seemed as if everybody on the field rushed up to shake his hand or slap him on the back. At the first opportunity Billy Boyd dragged him aside and said, Gee, but I 'm crazy to know how you did it. Did the old nut have a change of heart? No, laughed Day, Old man Berry's all right. You see it was this way. Friday, in the office, Mr. Berry asked me if I thought the Lennox men in the game were all eligible according to the agreement between the schools. I got excited and raved 'about the reputation their school would have if they tried to use the professional they've got over there. Then it flashed over me that I was no more eligible than he was. There was only one thing to do- get eligible-so I did. And wasn't it a great game! 5DlIillQ ffvel' Emu Wnnsi' When you wake up in the morning A nd salute the day that's dawning XVith a heart th:tt's high and with a spirit flee, And you long to get away 'l'o the woods and hills and play And dance in merry whirlwind jubilee, A nd lhere's something calling, calling With intensity appalling As its waves of ecstasy upon you roll Every bird-trill makes you yearn livery wind-sigh makes you hurn With a mad desire and longing in your soul. llun't you know that's just Pan's art Of piping Spring into your heart, And this the wisdom in his fiendish melody, There is something else in life Save monotony and strife?

Slim had a very definite plan in his head as he stepped into the down- town subway. While glancing through a Sunday paper he had seen the picture of a wealthy clubman who owned one of the largest diamonds in the country. The article said that Mr. Powers carelessly wore it as a stick pin and had been warned many times that it ought to be in a safe deposit vault. Slim had made up his mind to have that diamond. He knew where it could be cut up into smaller diamonds and no questions asked. He must have that diamond. The first step consisted in getting acquainted with Mr. Powers. He therefore dogged the man's steps until fate played into Slim's hands. A fire broke out in the hotel, and while walking through the smokefilled corridor, Powers was overcome. Just then Slim dashed out of his room and stumbled over the limp body. Slipping it over his shoulder he made his way to the nearest fire escape and carried it to the ground. Powers had been in no great danger in the corridor, for firemen were there soon after, but he felt that Slim had saved his life. Slim now had many opportunities to be with Mr. Powers and was simply waiting for a good chance to carry out his scheme. Fate is a wonderful joker. After playing into Slim's hands for some time, she began to play against him. Her first act was to lead Mr. York of the Chicago Detective Bureau into the hotel at which Slim and Mr. Powers were staying. York immediately recognized Slim, made a few inquiries and decided to keep his eyes open. But let us return to Slim. He had chosen the night for action, and had planned his work so that he could catch the nine o'clock train for Tampa. He entered the room, engaged Powers in conversation, and suddenly leaning forward in his chair, placed a cloth saturated with chloroform under his victim's nose. There was a slight struggle, but Powers soon crumpled up. Slim leisurely searched the room, pocketed the diamond, turned oFE the light, locked the door, and ran for his room. It was ten minutes of nine, and the train left at nine. Ten minutes, but that was time enough for a get-away. Dashing for the door he hailed a passing taxicab, and urging the driver to all possible speed, was driven to the station in record time. As he jumped out he noticed a cab coming up the street at a furious pace. Slim ran to the gate and attempted to rush through it. 4'Are you crazy? asked the gateman. The nine o'clock train, shouted Slim. YEAR Boox 113 H Hasn't been made up yet. But it 's supposed to go in one minute, faltered Slim. Wait, l'll explain to you, said a voice. York came up to Slim and quickly slipped a pair of handcuffs over his wrists. You crooks, he said, always make a mistake sooner or later. We are running on Daylight Sav- ing time, but the railroads use Standard lime. just an hour early, but a slight mistake like that is going to cost you a term in prison. How 's that? retorted Slim, trying to assume an indifferent air. I was outside the window and saw the whole thing, so I guess you 'd better C0l11C along with me. Slim said nothing, but from his expression one could easily guess what he thought of the Daylight Saving plan. ff? .

YEAR Boon 115 1Rebccca'e Surprise Ilbattp BY CLARA MALENUSSON, ,23 Rebecca nervously patted her foot on the floor. Why should she remain at home to receive a maiden aunt whom she had seen last week? Why should her mother pick out this afternoon to have a committee meeting at the club? Now she must call up Fritz and tell him she was not going to the theatre. She went to her desk and was just about to take up the phone when in the mirror above it she saw a man slinking past the door that led into the hall. She had the presence of mind I0 pick up a pen and dip it into the ink-well and write madly until the man had disappeared, then, as she was about to leap to her feet, to her utter horror a second figure followed the iirst. For a second she could not move, then she ran noiselessly to the window. lt was growing dark, and there was not a policeman in sight, no one. Breathing fast she stole to the big door leading into the hall, slammed it suddenly, and with dihiculiy shot the old-fashioned and unused bolt into place. Standing with her back against this door she realized that another, leading into the back library, was open, so she ran and locked it. Then, putting her ear to the crack, she was sure she heard voices. The telephone! She had forgotten it in her fright. She could call her mother, no, that would do no good. She must get the police station. Sup- pose the men had cut the wiresl She had heard that burglars did that. She must not lose a minute. She ran and grabbed the phone and began excitedly to give her message, when a calm voice said, Number, please. O, where was the telephone book? No, that was a directory. Here it is-- N, O, P-now-Pa, Po-it must be there, probably under station. Of Courseg Police Station, Avon 3821--HO, 3281. Her hand trembled so that she could hardly hold the receiver. The thing buzzed and buzzed, never had the exchange been so slow. At last she heard a voice, Yes mum-a little louder, please-burglars? Yes mum-in two minutes, yes, several did you say? Yes. She hung up the receiver and fell back exhausted. But now she began to realize all that the situation would entail. She hid her face in her hands.

Stealing back to the door, she pressed her ear against 116 PORTLAND mon scuooi. the crack and held her breath, yes, it was someone in the hall-he was coming towards her. He stopped at the door, and there came a perfect tattoo of knocks. Rebecca reeoiled on the divan, stifled a scream in a pillow, and prayed that the police would come soon. 'l'he person outside was moving again, no policemen yet, the steps passed on up the hall. A door opened and was closed again. Somebody was opening the front door, it must be the police. Rebecca heard a womanls scream, then footsteps rushing up the stairs. O, what could it all mean? She must know. Slowly she drew the bolt and opened the door just far enough for a peep. Yes, there were uniforms. There was also a bright light in the hall. She crept out and silently pointed to the room where she had heard the burglars moving, then rushed back and again fastened the door. Loud and angry voices came from the dining room. Rebecca clapped her hands over her ears and buried her head in the pillow again. Somebody would he shot! What could the delay be? Repeated knocks at her door and a voice calling her name brought her to her feet. She tried hard to calm herself and quietly opened the door. Her face was pale but determined. Could she believe her eyes? There stood Fritz and john, her two very best friends, held tightly in the grasp of two policemen who had them hand- cuFfed. She gasped hopelessly. Several pale-faced girls were peeping through the banisters of the staircase. In her hysterical condition Rebecca could do nothing to aid her friends, although she fully realized the serious- ness of the situation. Let me go, shouted john, but the policeman answered, Now you keep still. The less you say, the easier it will be before the captain. But if you want to lix up anything between you - Fix up anything! roared john. All right, theng come along! and the ofiicers dragged the angry boys towards the door. As they opened it, there stood on the steps a dignified and gentle lady, to whom Rebecca hurried, exclaiming, Oh, Auntie, they have arrested Fritz and john for nothing at all. There is some dreadful mistake. The lady entered calmly, and said, Rebecca, dear, stop crying, Gentle- men, I think I can explain the situation. No, no, Auntie, wailed Rebecca, with the tears running down her cheeks, it's alle-my-fault. They haveu't done atiythirig-please make the policemen go-you seell-I thought l heard b- bu! burglars. Her aunt spoke to the policemen. There is no need of keeping the young men handcuffed, you will please pardon Miss Rebecca for troubling you, These are our friends.

Ball onel shouted the umpire. '-Scare him, Pap, shouted someone from the Orioles' dugout. It came from a little red-haired, freckle-faced boy, about ten years of age, who was seated on the players' bench. He was really the only one who had said any- thing to encourage the pitcher. But the call was in vain, the first man up was walked. Never mind, Pap, get the next one, were the next encouraging words that came from the little boy. Try as hard as ite could, the pitcher's efforts to keep his tnan from first base were useless. Something was troubling him, and although he heard the encouraging remarks, he could do nothing. His arm became stiff. The manager seeing this, sent another tnan to replace him. jitn Moore lelt the lield with a heavy heart, but close beside hint trudged the small boy whose faith was still unshaken. Don't give up, Pap, another day will come. The next day arrived. Old Sul was playing over the -house-tops, and on the streets below. Things were progressing as usual, on the streets of Balti: more. Father and son were preparing to go to the ball grounds. Don't forget, Pap, never give up, said joe: KNO, son, I wont forget, was the reply. Having reached their destination, jim was met by the manager of the International Orioles. 118 PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL l'm going to give you another try-out, Jim, said the manager. Thanks, boss, replied jim. After a half-hour of work-out, the Orioles took their places on the field. Iirn threw the first ball which went as a strike. 'fl-Ie's afraid of you, came a voice from the dugout, 'the can't hit 'em, Pap! The first man was struck out, and what joy came to Pap and his son. But it did not last long, for soon Jim's big arm became stiff and sore. No, he couldn't continue, he must leave the box. Signaling the manager, he was replaced by another man. Then, after he reached the bench, he asked the manager to release him from the team, which he was glad to do. That's all right, Pap, be'll beg you to come back soon, said joe with happy visions of the future. All the rest of the afternoon was spent in deep thought. jim sat with his head in his hands, thinking of his bad playing in the past two games, which had spoiled all of his plans for the future. I've got it, said Joe. There was no answer. Pap, 1've got itl Ioe exclaimed a. second time. Still no answer. Pap, 1'll tell you what we'll do, said joe with a broad smile on his freckled face. What can we do? was the despondent reply. We've been wanting to get away from this hot city for a long time. Illl give you a liniment rub-down every day and we'lI practice with the best players we can Gnd, because you know I've got to make the academy team when l'm big enough. If the manager doesn't call you back at the end of two months, I'll eat my hat. l'm afraid you'll have to eat that hat, son, was the reply, but just to please the boy, jim agreed to the scheme. A month later, jim sent a telegram to the manager of the Orioles, stating that he was ready to play with the old team whenever he was needed. Jim and Joe anxiously waited for a reply. Within two days it came, a favorable one. Only one person was happier than jim, little Joe, whose faith had been justified. Seven years roll hy, at the end of which, we tincl Joe a student at Hard- ing Academy. His education, gained by the teachings of his father, had enabled him to enter this academy. But this was not all, for joe was the best pitcher on the Harding nine, a brilliant team, and a rival of Stanton Academy, for the pennant of the Academic League. Joe had wonderful ability as a pitcher, and was one ofthe most popular fellows at the school. At last the day of the great battle between the rival schools arrived, and with it, Jim, who was now the most sensational pitcher the Orioles had ever had. YEAR uoox 119 It was a warm afternoon in june, and the players on the Harding team had already taken their places on the field. After having pitched three prac- tice balls, joe who was in the box, was ready to meet the first batter on the opposing team. Come on, son, shouted Jim, before the umpire had announced the beginning of the game. Play ballll' came the familiar sound. Go to it, son, exclaimed Jim with eagerness. All through the tight game, the academy yells and encouraging remarks macle by Pap were heard by Joe who was playing a wonderful game and keep- ing up his reputation as an excellent pitcher. After two hours of playing, the game ended in favor of Harding Academy. joe had won for his school, not only the game but also the pennant. Immediately after the game, joe was raised on the shoulders of his fellow- players and carried to the grandstand where Jim was eagerly awaiting the appearance of his boy. Gee, Pap, that was a great game, was the first thing that Joe said to his father. Yes, my son, and that was great pitching tool replied Jim with emphasis.
