If your eyesight is not what it ought to be, have your eyes examined. If you do not need glasses, all is wellg if you do and want my service, you can depend upon the most reliable, honest optical services to be had any- where. My charges are reasonable in all cases.

THEJTATTLER 15 SPORTSMANSHIP Sportsmanship means being a good loser as well as a good winner. VVe have all been a-t games where the spirit shown by the losing team made us lose our enjoyment of the game 2 and again, we have been at games where we admired the spirit of the losers. Good sportsmanship is a part of good school spirit. The cheer- ing section should encourage the team if it is losing, but if it is win- ning, the people cheering should not make it unpleasant for the losers. It is true that the school that shows good sportsmanship has a good reputation. ' Whether in athletic contests or in everyday life among class- mates, good sportsmanship should be practised. Not only in school days, but after school days have gone past. and we encounter the problems of life, good sportsmanship should be shown: not only in business dealings, but also in social life. XV hen the great game of life is over, we shall he judged not by the fact that we won or lost but hy the spirit in which we won or lost. li or when the One Grfeat Scorer comes to write against our names, lfle writes, not that we won or lost, but how we played the game.

Several times the Mercer fans applauded the accurate passing and skillful shooting of jack. He and his team mates seemed to be at their best for this important game. Proniptly at 8.15 Referee llrown blew his whistle and the game was on. Soon after the tap-off at center, Jack dribbled half the dis- tance to the basket and accurately passed to F ox, who easily scored. Two more goals were gotten in quick succession, and the Mercer rooters cheered lustily. The Dixon athletes, however, were not going to let the game slip through their fingers. They were a fighting team and soon displayed their ability at scoring goals. Miller twice eluded the fast Mercer guards to tally goals. Then a long shot by Calhoun added two more points and the score was tied, 6-6., .lf rom that time until the end of the first half, the score remained close. Mostly through Jacks brilliant playing, Mercer now was ahead. 18-16. More than once, his accurate passes and shooting netted goals. As play was stopped for the short rest between halves, the rousing cheer of Rah, Rah, Hilton drowned out the cheers for the Dixon fans. As the teams came from the dressing room to start the sec- ond half, there was a general buzz of excitement when the Mercer boosters found Jack occupying the bench with the substitutes. Reid. a second-string forward, was filling his position. Reid was a good player. Evidently realizing, however, that all eyes were upon him, he soon became nervous. After the tap- oh', Martin passed to Reid, who missed an easy shot near the basket. .lack buried his head in his hands and then looked up at Coach Freede. He was watching every play with eagle eyes. Reid displayed more nervousness when he fumbled a pass from Rose. Ray quickly recovered the ball for Dixon and passed to Stanley, who easily made a goal. The Mercer players did not lose heart, but, weakened through the loss of their best forward, jack, they were unable to stop the Dixon team. VVith two minutes to play and the score 28-273 in favor of Dixon, the Mercer captain called time. He gathered his mates in a huddle and tried to encourage them with words of praise and advice. As the referee blew his whistle to start play, another player came onto the Hoof. That athlete was none other than jack. A 32 THE TATTLER slight hitch in his gait was noticeable as he walked to the referee to report and then trotted to his place. To say that the fans were ,happy would be putting it mildly. llats were thrown into the air and the cheering was tremendous. VVith Jack in the game, they knew he could pull the team together. They also gave a cheer for Reid as he left, for he had done his best. It was evident to everyone that Jack's presence had gained for his team mates their former confidence. Jack received the ball on the tap-off and quickly passed to llopler to avoid losing it. Hopler dribbled a few yards and passed to Martin, who neatly tallied a goal. Three more goals were made possible through the accurate passes of Jack. Only one minute remained to play and the score was tied. 738-728. It was noticeable to everyone that Jack was getting around with the utmost difficulty. However, he managed to make seemingly impossible plays, and the fans cheered wildly. Niller, the fleet Dixon star, tallied neatly from the side, and the lighting maroon and gray went ahead. Jack arched a long one to even the count. Then, just as the timekeeper raised the whistle to his lips. jack poised for another shot, which slipped neatly through the basket as the whistle sounded. Mercer had fought harder than Dixon to win, 32-30. Jack hobbled towards the dressing room. llut he did not go far, for he was lifted on friendly shoulders and carried. There, as the team's physician bandaged his badly bruised knee, he joined his Fresh- man buddies in singing the college victory song. D. M., '3l. THE FIRE At the VV'inston school it was the custom to have a fire drill every Tuesday morning. jack Howley, one of the students there. hated them and said he couldn't see any sense in them, anyway. So the next Tues- day he decided to hide in a coat closet. The morning came, and finally the fire bell. In the excitement, he slipped unnoticed into the closet. In a few minutes a cry went up. It was a real tire! Howley heard and wished he had gone. What if he should be trapped! He tried to open the door, but the lock had caught when he went in. He cried for help, but nobody came. He heard the Q THE TATTLER ' 33 crash of the ceiling falling around him. After a hard battle, he broke the door open, but the Flames were all around him. An awful crash, bang! and he just dodged a partition that fell. The teacher outside had called the roll and jack could hear the shouts. VV here is Jack I-lowley, over and over again, but he was too weak to answer. The smoke was gathering around him swiftly. and he was choked by it. Then everything grew black to him. lle fell unconscious to the floor. Then in rushed Don Curry. He had been lack's chum through thick and thin, and he had determined to find him. The smoke was so thick he couldn't see anything, but he kept on. Fi- nally, he stumbled over something, and to his surprise but greater delight, it was Jack. He picked him up and started back, but lost his way in the smoke. The Haines were all around them and he didn't know how to escape. If he could run through the flames, he could get to the Hre escape. He started, but didn't get very far, for ,lack was heavy. Nevertheless, he did not give up hope. I-Ie battled on, and then a breath of fresh air came. This gave him new courage and he started on again. VVhen he got to the clearing, he dropped exhausted. Everybody was cheering him. llowley came to after a little while, and when he learned what had happened, it taught him a great lesson. Since that day, he has been the most enthusiastic pupil when fire drill comes. D G FP . ., vw. THE PRICE OF DECEIT It was the big day that Patricia Flanigan and Molly Arnolds had planned on, ever since they were little girls in grammar school together. They had worked and worked, doing every little thing they could, trying to Hnd a way to get money for an education, as they were very poor. Sometimes it seemed as if they would have to stop and give up that big task they had dreamed of, and then they would think how a college education would help them in later life, and they would continue to slave. llut today they were really starting for college. It seemed as if it could not be true. Patricia ran into the house to get Molly to go on the train with her. Patricia always took charge of all their affairs. 34 THE TATTLER When they arrived, they got a room together, which was large and sunny. 4: 4- at is lo- 4: They had been at school nearly four years now. Molly had been faithfully working throughout the years, doing her very best. but Patricia, or Patsy as she was called, had been deserting her work and had spent all the money she had saved, besides owing several bills. One night. as Patsy was going down town, desperate in mind. she heard the Fire gong and saw that one of the largest department stores was burning rapidly. A great crowd had gathered there, including nearby storekeepers. As she walked up to the crowd, she noticed that the Ladies' Furnishings store was open and the owner was in the crowd. Now was her chance, she thought. Oh! how she needed the money, and nobody would ever suspect her, as she was popular and good looking. She would take the money and finish her educa- tion. Then Molly would be sorry that she had insisted on staying at the dormitory and studying. She had a feeling that she shouldn't go, and still something told her she must have that money, as she was getting destitute. She stepped to the door g nobody was inside. She walked in. There was that money she wanted, and she knew perfectly how to get it, as she worked here on Saturdays. She opened the bank, and there was all the money she needed. She took all the bills she could get in her pocketbook and then walked out cautiously. She ran back to the dormitory, wondering if anybody had seen her act, but feeling glad she had the money. The end of the year had come. Patricia was very well dressed, healthy looking and lazy, while her chum, Molly, was poorly dressed, tired looking, but happy. - At graduation Molly was the valedictorian, bravely speaking her part in the class. She was not well dressed, but nobody noticed her clothes, because she spoke so well. llut one of the class was missing. Where was she? What had happened? Everybody noticed the absence. It was Patricia lflanigan who had deserted her class on the very last night they would all be together. After the graduation, Molly went to her room and found Patsy sitting in a chair crying. Molly was bewildered to find Patsy crying, as she had always been careless and carefree. After soothing Patsy, she asked, What has happened P I'll tell you it all, Patsy said. I-I STOLE the money that put me through school. I lied when I told you how I got it, ' THE TA TTLER 35 and somehow I could not stand it to see you out there in that homely dress leading the class, when I thought how I got my clothes. But Iilll going back home now and earn the money I stole and send it where it belongs. But for all the wrong I've done, I have learned a lesson- 'Do what you do in this world fairly, and you will be much happier in the end.' L. B. K., '32. THE WAR EAGLE So high up the blue dome of the heaven as to seem only a small speck even through the strongest binoculars, sat the War Eagle in his viewport. He was there all alone, waiting, watching for the lone plane that must at one time or other appear, and soon it would go down, a fiaming coffin, and the War Eagle would again be victorious. A full-blooded Sioux was he, and now, acting in the manner of his race, was out to bring down an enemy, not with the aid of others, but alone. As his eagle-like eye swept the war-torn fields below him, his gaze suddenly became fixed. Ah! it was an enemy plane, a two- seated Palfth, flying low and unaware of him. Suddenly, as if from nowhere, there pounced on the German an enemy plane and within thirty seconds the VVar Eagle had struck down another plane. 4: aa af wk wk 4: A gray-haired general was seated at the table, and around him were seated the rest of the council. There was a moment of silence and then: I think, Sir, I can supply a means for investigating this sud- den counter attack, said an officer. The council turned to the speaker, as one man. Colonel Chisholm, said the general, you realize, of course, what you are saying P I think I do, 'said that officer. I have a man, an Indian called the War Eagle, who can get the information for you if anyone can. What sort of a record has he? asked a member of the council. Record l echoed the colonel, why, Sir, he has a record not equalled in the A. E. F. Officially, he has brought down nineteen 36 THE TATTLER planes, and l cannot say how many unoflicially. He always goes after them single-handed, and bang! never misses. All right, Colonel, get the information I want and I'll make your Sioux a major. The next morning, being informed of his task, the XVar Eagle set out. He was not dressed in ordinary uniform and car- ried for a weapon only a long, sharp knife. lle went to the fray as his fathers had before him. Climbing into his plane, he took off and winged his way high in the sky, heading for enemy territory. As he was flying over a dense woods, his sharp eyes spied an opening: he landed. Now his real work began. . As he snaked his way, as only an Indian can, over the ground. his eagle eyes took in his every surrounding and his body seemed a part of the earth, so well was it camoufiaged. Nearing the front lines, he was amazed at the number of men being taken from the trenches to be placed on some other point of offence. Then for the first time since he had landed, did he make a sound: he chuckled, for there ahead, opposing the American drive, was only the skeleton of an army with several machine guns. making what seemed to be a cough, and it stopped less than ten feet from where tl1e Wlar Eagle was hiding. Seated in the back seat was a general of German High Command. Dog, idiot, snapped the enraged officer, that an ofiicer of iiernian lligh Command should be stranded on the road, car run out of gas. tio fetch some more instantly! Run all the way! The All Highest paced restlessly back and forth and then stopped, sat down, and began to doze. The next minute something lzuuled on him, steel-like lingers found his throat and he was bound, gagged l That surprised and frightened officer never knew what hap- pened next, for, from the force of the blow dealt him, and fright. he fainted. XVhen he awoke, he was in the office of a certain general of the .X. IC. li. The lYar liagle, because of the prisoner, letters, and informa- lion brought in, sported the rank of Major of the 102 Pursuit Squadron. rt !f J. L. 1., ao. TEN YEARS' SLEEP Un July 4, 1929, after I had finished my work at the Lake Ilouse, I decided to take a ride. 1 left the main highway a few THE TATTLER 37 miles from town and finally found myself at the foot of a large mountain, which in late years had been little visited by people. Leaving my ca1', l found an old trail which l decided to follow. Soon I came to a shady knoll. l threw myself on the ground, as 1 was very warm. Uh! how nice it was to lie here and dream, with the birds singing all about you as though they would burst their little throats with joy. I soon fell asleep. NVhen l awoke it was autumn. l could not understand it. for it had lJCCll inidsummer when 1 had dozed off. l was a very different person and 1 looked like a tramp. l ran down to the place where I had left my car and there at the foot of the mountain a small town had grown up. l wandered about, and a small crowd finally gathered around me. .Nu old lady came along and asked who l was, so l explained that I had lived near there and told her how l had left my car and gone to sleep on the mountainside. She laughed and then asked me to tell her the name of some person l knew. l mentioned llelena Tibbetls. Why, she exclaimed, there's a school teacher here at the Southern lligh School by that name. She led me at once to l lelena's home. llelena recognized me. but stood like a statue. We thought you had drowned ten years ago, she said. A fter borrowing some respectable looking clothes from llelena, we started for Rangeley, which, to my astonishment. was now a large city. VVhat's Anita lladger doing now ? l asked. She's the head of Gray's Ilusiness College, llelena replied. XVe met a very pretty. young woman coming towards us. XYell, hello, Hilda, said llelena. Then, after llelena had ex- plained about my experiences, we had a very pleasant conversa- tion. llilda had become a nurse and was as yet unmarried. ller patient at that time must have been hard to manage, for it was none other than Harold Spaulding. Chl where are Ruth and Affie ? I asked next. Helena be- gan to laugh and said, T here are little Ruths now. They are going to make great basketball players. too-and Scebo owns the store that used to be Clark Smith's. llut he is not as slow as Clark. You asked me about Affie, too. XVell, she bought Mrs. Giles' store. and her husband, Wendell, has bought Mr. llolmes' place. VVe were walking all the time, talking and laughing. Well. I must leave you now, for my patient is very cross! laughed Hilda, and away she went. . Across the street, I saw a very dignified-looking lady walking 38 THE TATTLER with a child about four years old by her side. Colne here, Dot, shouted Ilele11a. XVell, who should it be but Dorothy llarnden tonly it wasn't I larnden any morej. A fter she heard about my ex- perience, she asked me to come to her house for dinner. Her house-what did she mean? The child at her said, however, set- tled the question in my mind by saying, I lurry up, Mama. It's almost noon-no dinner and Daddy will be angry. Dot laughed and said, W ell, that's right-I must be going. llut l will see you later, and so she was gone. Dot's the same old girl, isn't she? asked Ilelena. Yes, always a smile, I answered. I had eaten a lunch at l lelena's home, but after so much excite- ment I was hungry again. We went into a restaurant and had a good dinner. The restaurant was not a large building and who should we meet inside but Donald Morton, the proprietor. How- ever, I did not recognize him, for he had a mustache and a funny looking beard. Over at one table. with a lady, was someone that looked familiar. Merville Doak-I should never have known him. lie had his hair parted in the middle and wore a swallow-tail coat. Donald whispered to us, saying that Merville was still seeing a lot of NVilla. What is George Prescott doing now? I asked. Oh, he danced in the theatre here for five years. He never could be satis- lied with a Rangeley girl, so he was married last month to a girl from Dallas, said Donald. And Dorothy Twombley? I asked. Hal lla! Donald laughed. After she graduated from high school, she joined a show with 'Mike' who needed 'Ike.' Now that they have given up stage life, they own five silk mills, all in Philadelphia. They are now on the Zeppelin flying around the world. .Xftcr a while Ilelena told me how Elizabeth Davenport had become the best toe dancer in Rangeley, spending her time off the stage reading Low Sf01'1'c'.v. Dorothy Hamm worked at a soda fountain in Rangeley. She had grown very independent, having refused many offers of mar- riage. They say she liked Gardner and Fowler and she was never Grouchy. Emma Pillsbury had become a dentist, for very often she had a tooth-achferj and at other times she pitied the men fixing the roads and went out to help them. Laurence Haines had taken Harry Furbish's place at the bank. Marjorie had settled down to reading Zane Grey's books. Ardell THE TATTLER 39 tiile was still dreaming of that romance of long ago. She had be- come a missionary. Alethea Hoar had settled down with a certain Roland. Methyl lillis stayed behind Carol tiile's counter twhere she workedl shouting. I ley! Eddie! from morn till night. Rachel Walker had taken Frank l'hilbrick's place telling fortunes. She believed that to- morrow would come sometime. George XYilliams had moved to Lower Dallas, where he had established a chop suey restaurant. VVe always knew George had a great future planned. Payson llaley always took a llell with him wherever he went, for, he said, he was very nervous when out after dark and to have llell with him made him feel more comfortable. Last. but not least, Minnie Wentworth. She had settled down to raising h poultry, but best of all she liked the little llentleysj. A fter get- ting a position in one of the stores and saving some money, 1 spent my life living with my Happy thoughts of dear, old Rangeley lligh. M. M. VV., '3l. THE MOUNTAINS The mountains surround the live-mile stretch of water that forms the lake with towering grandeur. Can we wonder that the trout, that denizen of icy water, inhabits the lake whose source is the sparkling stream. falling in beautiful cascades from its head- waters in the mountains? The mist, rising from a stream that winds its way down from a tiny lake, makes what we would hardly deign to call a hill, appear to tower high above us. lint the sun, soon shining in full splendor. banishes the mists, dwarfing that same knoll in comparison with its haughty fellows. Their appearance is as subject to change as that of the most tickle of debutantes. In the morning they are capped with clouds and appear near at hand: at noon they seem far away, but at sunset. a breath would topple them into the gilded waters. The rush of civilization has left few lands in the same wild, untouched state in which they were found. Even in our sanctuary from noise and dirt, the lumbermen are cutting the proud forests, perhaps to furnish the very paper on which we write. liut these depredations can make our mountains only a little less proud. a little less beautiful : for no man can take away their majesty. They will still rear their heads to the clouds, though they are barren and cold. C.

NYhile he was waiting for the food, he heard some low nnnnbling just barely dis- tinguishable to his ears. Ile caught enough words to learn that Li I lung was chief of a band of smugglers who planned to smuggle some laces and jewelry across the border into Granville, and using the restaurant as a blind, would distribute the smuggled articles at their leisure. After eating the food and paying for it, he walked slowly out of doors until he was out of sight of anybody who might be watching from the restaurant, and darted down a back alley until he was in back of the restaurant. lle paused to look around a minute, but seeing no one, he tried the door of the place. lt gave in easily and then taking a small Hashlight from his pocket. he carefully focused the beams around the cellar. In the center of the room he saw some stairs and gathered that they led into the rear rooms of the restaurant. Easing the service revolver in his holster, he climbed up the stairs. Looking in through the keyhole, he perceived a Chinese servant sitting in a chair reading a newspaper. Opening the door carefully, he stuck the barrel of the revolver out and making a slight noise, attracted the servant's attention who, finding himself looking into the business end of a revolver, quickly thrust his hands up. Then taking off his own clothes and motioning for the China- man to do the same, he put on the servant's clothes and tied Zlllll gagged him. Going to the kitchen, he found a lemon and rubbed it over his face. Doing this, he retired to the chair and began reading the newspaper. In about ten minutes Li Hung came into the living- room and told jack the smuggled goods would arrive in Granville that night under a load of hay. Instructing Jack, who was disguised, to take a small packet to Frank Goodwin, he left the room. Jack knew who Frank Good- win was, and delivering the packet, he went to the police station. He informed the captain of what was going on, and in- structed him to have a cordon of policemen thrown around the house at half past eleve11 that night. Then Jack went back to the THE TATTLER 41 restaurant. Li Hung told him to wait until the smugglers arrived and then help store the stuff in a secret room. jack had a small police whistle in his pocket with which he was to give the signal. At quarter after eleven, Jack went out of doors. A little later he saw the shadowy outlines of a load of hay coming down the road. He waited until the load got into the alley, and then he gave the signal. A Hgnre detached from the group of smugglers and started for the upper part of the restaurant, butgrasping the revolver in his hand, jack took after him. just as he reached the top of the stairs, someone slammed a bullet at him. Ducking for the kitchen. he shot three times in succession and had the satisfaction of seeing someone fall. Going up to him, ,lack saw that it was Li Hung and that he had only a Hesh wound. Tying up Li Hung and getting the servant, he went to the alley and learned that the gang was com- pletely destroyed. jack got rewards totaling 31,500.00 and was raised to the rank of Sergeant. R. S. H., '32, A TRIP T0 MARS The theory that Mars is inhabited has instilled ambition in many a young man and woman. Jack Marston was one of these. Day after day he brooded over the subject until it seemed to him that his happiness depended on making an attempt to visit Mars. One day jack picked up a newspaper and departed to the shade of a large maple tree on the well-kept lawn in front of his house. The first item that met his eye was the article about the German invention of the huge cannon in which the inventor hoped to shoot a man to Mars. Immediately Jack was wide awake and reading the article eagerly. Right then and there he resolved to be the man to visit the planet. As he lay there in the warm sunshine, pondering on the subject, he fell asleep. His mind was so filled with the idea of a visit to Mars, that he began to dream. He thought that in some way this great inventor had heard of him and his ambitions and he had decided to let jack be the one to risk his life in the cannon. jack eagerly accepted. Much to his delight, the day for the tryout of the invention arrived. Thou- sands of people were assembled in the Held and the big gun was pointed towards the planet. Young Jack was dressed in a warm, much-padded suit, gog- gles, and all the equipment necessary for his swift passage through the air. He was not fearful of the outcome. Bidding his parents and friends good-bye, he was assisted into the shell in the mouth of the cannon. Suddenly, every one was silent and hushed, the in- 42 THE TATTLER ventor pulled the trigger and ,lack was on his way. He had an oxygen machine for the high altitude and was enjoying himself immensely as he sped through the air. Nothing impeded his progress and as he neared Mars, he prepared to open his para- chute which he was to use when he began to feel the force of gravity drawing him to the planet. The outcome was that he landed in a small sort of village which was inhabited by three classes of people who were the citizens of Mars. He soon dis- covered that the wealthy class of people or the nobility had pale blue faces. vellow hair and brown eves: the working class had green faces, brown hair and yellow eyes: and the servants had red faces, pink eves. and black hair. Jack was amazed at all these colors of the rainbow. The neoule came running out and wel- '-nnwfl him iust as if thev had been looking for him. Much to his surprise he could understand their language. although he could not speak it. He found out that there were no large cities, only small villages. The people were very hospitable and friendly and seemed to be educated above the average man. The trees and vegetation were much like ours. but the animals, even the domestic ones, were strange. The people told Jack that he could not have arrived at a bet- ter time, as their annual tournament took place that afternoon. and Jack attended with his new friends. Many and strange Vere the games and races in which the young men of the three classes of people participated. One race especially attracted Jack. A steel track about one foot wide had been laid and magnetized, and those partaking in the race wore shoes with steel soles. These were drawn to the track with the rapidity and regularity of a trip- hammer. So only those with long legs were chosen for this .ace. .lack was delighted when he was asked to enter. The shoes were being Fitted to his feet when, faint and far away, he heard a voice calling him. lt seemed to come nearer and nearer until he recog- nized it as his own 1nother's voice. Bewildered, he sat up and it was some little time before he could realize that he had been asleep on his own lawn and had had a most wondertul dream. J, B., '33. PARODY ON ANTONY'S SPEECH AT CAESAR'S FUNERAL Friends, hearers, classmates, give me your advice. I come to study Latin and not to sit here idle. The stupid of our class re- main after school, while the good are often rewarded by good marks. So let me be that I may study. The noble teacher hath THE TA TTLE R 43 told me I do not study. If it is so, it is a grievous fault and grievously do I suffer for it. Here under watch of the teacher and the class-for Miss Young is an excellent teacher: and we all are an excellent class !- come I here to study Latin. It is my worst enemy,-cursed and hated by me, but Miss Young says it is good practice. And Miss Young is an excellent teacher. It hath made many pupils stay after school. whose conduct hath made them fail. Doth this in Latin seem good practice? When we have tried we have failed-we should be able to get our lessons, for Miss Young says it is good practice and Miss Young is an excellent teacher. We all do know that in the classroom thrice did we do the same lesson, and thrice did we fail. Was this good practice? Yet Miss Young says it is good practice and sure she is an excellent teacher. I speak not against Miss Young or Latin, but here I am to tell what I do know. We all did hate Latin once, without cause. What cause have we now for hating it? Our judgment! Has it fled from us? Have we all lost our reason? Believe me! My mind is not on my Latin and I must close and get back to it. M. I. W., ,32.

BAKED BEANS 'Twas on a dark and stormy night, No stars were to be seen, The Sophomores gave a supper Of the much detested Hbeanf' They started with a flourish, And countless pies were made, And salads, too, oh, quite a few VV ere on the tables laid. The maidens fair did wave their hair To wait upon the table 3 R., '30 And youths so grand, with bow in hand, Played for all they were able. And guests there came, in spite of rain, To grace the festive board, But far too few the Sophomores knew, As loss they could not afford. They worked till late, oh. such a fate, And each one blamed the other, But this is true, 'twill be Oyster Stew, Or welll never have another. L. B. K., '32 THE TATTLER BASKETBALL Oh, basketball. it is a merry sport, We've played it all the yearg And with a defense as strong as a fort, Once we lost, but without a tear. Our Captain is a bright-eyed lass, Hut manly she handles the ballg There's only one thing the matter, alas, She's only five feet tall. Our center is tall and strong. Our side-center very Heetg Our guards are never in the wrong, And our forwards are on their feet. On trips to Strong and Kingfield, We met with great successg llut when at Stratton we missed our guess, And though we tried our very best, We came out with seven less. Un our own floor victory walked beside us, Until the game with Stratton was a tieg Then both teams were victorious, And baskets rung in high. .-Xnd now to close the season, Our class games were ahead: And surely there was no reason Why the Juniors should be wrongly led. There was Affie, there was Mazie. There was 'Nita, there was Hammieg There was Ruth and there was Hinkley, There's a team made up of pigmies. Tly the unfailing faith of our coach, We have steadily developedg VVe have never met reproach, And through her our minds have steadied. D. I. H THE TA TTLER THE SENIOR BALL ln a long and heated class meeting, The Seniors did decide That they would give the first dance, XV ith chaperons to preside. They then and there decided To hire the Lodge Hall, And went about the business Of getting up a ball. The Shadagee Urchestra With music did excel, And even though it was the first, It surely went off swell. Now let us tell you Juniors, Next year, if you've any chance at all, The way to make some money Is to give a Senior Ball. H. ODE T0 THE WIND I like to listen to the wind, I love to hear it blow: I laugh to feel it on my face, As I tramp o'er the snow. It makes a pleasant tingle there, And my pale cheeks to glowg I care not for its sharpness there- It cannot blow too cold. ' At night while I'm among the sheets, All cuddled warm and still, I say my good-night to the wind As it swoops on o'er the hills. R. E. F. '30 H., '30 2 ff 'F' , - , - fr E LL fn ..

S. girls' volley ball team. As the weather was cold, the game was played in the gymnasium. A small admission fee was charged in order to pay for emblems for the volley ball team.

Rangeley at Strong, 29 12 .I an. 30. Rangeley at Stratton, 21 28 ' Totals, 152 91 For the first time in several years, the girls of R. H. S. played outside teams in basketball. A league made up of Rangeley, Strat- ton, Kingfield and Strong was formed. The first game was played at Rangeley, November 15th, with Strong. The Rangeley girls ran away with the Strong team from the very beginning. Rangeley won with a score of 32-8. Emma Haskell shot some very good baskets and ran up a score of 18 points, making her high-point player for the evening. The line-up was as follows: RANGELEY STRONG ' E. Haskell, rf P. Sample, rf H. Ellis, lf B. Allen, lf M. Wright, c Newell, c A. Raymond, sc Worthley, sc W. Robbins, rg Huff, rg R. Madden, lg V. Allen, lg On November 22nd, the R. H, S. girls went to Kingfield with the boys and played between the halves of the boys' game. The Rangeley girls were by far the better team, making a score of 51 points to Kingf1eld's 24 points. The line-up was: , RANGELEY KINGFIELD E. Haskell, rf Beane, rf H. Ellis, lf Beane, lf M. Wright, c Tufts, C A. Raymond, sc Woori, sc VV. Robbins. rg Witham, rg B. Kane, lg Philpot, lg V As the Rangeley girls got a lead from the beginning, many substitutes were run in. E. Haskell was high-point player, with a total of 19 points. As the hall was quite small, the two-section game was played during the entire game. Mavis Wright, as center, made some very good shots nearly back to the center line. Grace Riddle also made some very good shots, especially fouls. The third game of the season was played with Stratton at Rangeley, December Gth. This was the best game so far. The Stratton girls had the advantage, as they were much taller than the Rangeley girls. However, Rangeley put up a good fight and managed to obtain a final score of 19-19. The tie was not played off. The line-up was: 62 THE TATTLER RANGELEY STRATTON E. Haskell, rf Sedgeley, rf D. Hamm, lf Williamson, lf M. Wright, c Caldwell, c A. Raymond, sc Daggett, sc VV, Robbins, rg Fuller, rg R. Madden, lg E. Avelill, lg Friday the 13th was not unlucky for the YVhites, as they beat the Ulireensy' by a score of 25-10. The boys played a game and, as the girls had no game to play, two teams were decided upon by drawing numbers. Une team was called the VVhites and the other the Greens The day was unlucky for the Greens, not only because of their losing the game, but also one of their girls, ll. Kane, got quite badly hurt by colliding with H. Ellis. This was the iirst mishap of the season. H. Ellis was high-point winner, with a score of 11 points. january 10th, the boys and girls of the basketball teams went to Strong. The hall was very small and there were places where there was no outside: this made the game very fast. The Rangeley girls won with a score of 29-12. Mavis Wlright was high scorer with ll points. January 1'2'th, the Rangeley girls played a game among them- selves: the Odds against the Ends. The Ends were the first team. the Odds, the second. The final score was 25-12 in favor of the Iinds. Mavis Wright was high-point scorer, with 12 points. January 30th, the R. H. S. girls went to Stratton to play bas- ketball. This was an especially important game because Stratton tied with R angeley at Rangeley, and everyone was eager to see how this game would come out. The final score was 28-21 in favor of Stratton. Mavis Wright was high scorer. with a score of ten points. .February 28th, the Seniors and Sophomores played their game. lt was very close. The final score was a tie, 31-31. They played two more minutes and the Sophomores managed to get two more baskets, winning the game. .- March 21st, the Sophomore-Junior game for the champion- ship of the class games was played. The Juniors won, with a score of 731-10. The girls appreciate Mrs. Tilton's help very much: she coached them well. and much of the credit for winning so many games is due her. H. F.
