T HE Punahou School Farm, the boys ' boarding department, started off in the early fall of 1929 for a wonderful year. Under the guidance of Mr. Ian H. Ross, Principal of the Farm, the boys passed a happy year without any serious mishaps. A very efficient student council consisting of six members and an adviser sought to remedy all troubles of the boys as well as possible. John Veeks was elected as president ; Albert Anderson, secretary ; and James Athlete Kneu- buhl, Robert Short, John Smaker Anderson, William Momona Whitting- ton as council members. Captain Claude M. Adams acted as adviser. Some of the outstanding athletes of the years at the Farm School were Swede Cleghorn and Prisoner Pa ne in first team football, and Kneubuhl, Albert Anderson, Peanut Kunihisa, Wenty Kinney, Art Sloggett in midget football. Most of the above mentioned were also prominent in baseball, track, and swimming — Al Anderson and Kunihisa starred on the nine, while Vhittington holds the interscholastic record for the plunge. Sundays have been changed for the farmerites. The story of Christianity was told in a series of short lectures every Sunday night from 6:30 to 7:00. The Farm joined with Castle Hall for these Sunday meetings. The series were divided into three — the first from September to Christmas, the second from Christmas to Easter, and the last series from Easter to June. Every first Sun- day of each month the Big Baby brought the boys out earlier so that they might have supper with the Castle Hall girls before the lectures. Social activities of the year included the Farm School — Hash House dance. a picnic at Waimanalo, and week-ends at Mokapu. Often, musical selections (birdies) were given at midnight b}- a few of the more talented youths of this Farm. Due to the fact that the farm school has been operated in the past at a loss, it will be discontinued next year. The administration, however, will make every effort to locate the outside island boys at private homes. 21

DURING the school year 1929-30 the so-called Hash House (which by the way is a misnomer) has given shelter, protection, and guid- ance to forty-five girls who hail from the different islands, along with a few from the mainland. They are a varied lot — big ones, little ones, fat ones, slim ones, wild ones, and quiet ones. Of these the largest number come from Hawaii, including such well known characters as John West, quiet little Alexa, Baby Frazier, our popular senior True Blue Lu, and Shamie, the golden blonde. Also the Childs ' children, Cal Achilles, Pauahi Wodehouse, Jerry Forbes, Bertha Weeks, and Maudie Ackerman. Maui has the next largest representation with eight wiffers. This in- cludes the Cameron sisters, Faithless and Ruthless, Twinkles Lougher, de- ceptively quiet Greg Murdoch, the famous Mrs. Quigley, demure Maile Stevenson, Kaye, who wools-away her time, and Jean Savage, the belle of Spreckelsville. Kauai evidenth ' is not so strong for the hash as it has sent us only three hashites. But it is strong for music, which Thelma gives us on the piano, and Spud contributes with her warbling. Ida Mae Grote is the third Kauaiite. Now we come to Oahu and the wild bunch from Vaialua to whom we attribute all the noise. (Some think they deserxe it, too.) The gang consists of the Beardmore sisters, the Cleghorn twins — Baby and Sister, Dodo Bryan, and Caroline Howard. Betty Williams from Schofield is the only representa- tive of the army or navy. Last but not least, alone from Molokai, is Hannah Hitchcock, the hula dancer who entertains all our company. There are a few people on the mainland who appreciate the fact th.it this is the oldest and best school west of the Rockies and have sent us their daugh- ters. Jean Anderson comes from Redwing, Minn., Glad s Allison from Califor- i nia, and the three Peaveys from Idaho. 20
