We wish to thank all who have in any way helped us with this publication. To our advertisers and Mr. Leonard Duncan QThe Faculty Managerj we wish to express our gratitude, and wish them as much joy and happiness in the future as we received by their aid in the preparation and publication of the book.

RHS Thirty-two THE MIRAGE if. Senior Class History It was with great pride that the Class of 1923 marched from the Pinney Street School to the High School Building on the morning of May 30, 1919, to receive certificates of admission to the High School. ln September of the same year we started on what was known as our High School career. In our Freshman year we were very cordially received, especially by the Sopho- mores. They did not seem to like the blonde, brunette nor Titian tinted locks of our boys or rather were jealous of these, and they instituted what is commonly known as a Barber Shop. We were honor guests at the Freshman reception and were treated-royally. We had several parties, including a Hallowe'en party, which added a great deal to our social life. The cane rush between the Sophomores and the Freshmen was successful for us-morally. As we could not stand such rough treatment we decided to be Sophomores,-and we were. During this year we banqueted the Freshmen and had several parties and class dances. We staged one of the bloodiest cane rushes ever wit- nessed in Rochester High School, with the Freshmen. lt was a tie, but we almost won. We then advanced to the high position of juniors and decided to organize our class and get busy. We had a number of dances, parties, bakery sales, freak basket-ball games, a concert and other events too numerous to metion. lt was now our turn to banquet the Seniors. This we did with great cost and skill. The Seniors, out of courtesy, no doubt, declared it the best ever held in R. H. S. At the beginning of our fourth year we decided it was time to work, and work we did. Our social activities were sadly neglected this year, even the Freshmen reception. We held a party in honor of our former President, jack Mathews, and also a staff party. As we have now reached the end of our so called career we wish to bid farewell to those we leave behind and hope to be remembered in the years to come.. fr We truly hope dear High School friends Y0u'll not put us into the dim dark past As you, your daily ways do wend. For you, also some day will pass And then with us you'll wish that even Though you're gone, you're not forgotten. lV1. E. A., '23 i?-?!Q51Q-- ,fffieff Thirty-th ree S Ll 3 . CX' .

S The nrst year was rather uneventful for Freshmen. After the cus- tomary hair cutting was over, We secured revenge in a measure by hold- ing the Sophomores to a tie in the annual Cane Rush. Near the close of the year a class party was held, and all enjoyed the occasion im- mensely. During the next year a club organized under the name of The Merry Makers , livened up the social side of our school by arranging for a couple of very successful parties and dances. The customary Cane Rush was eliminated and a Tug of War took place, in which contest we were successful in adding further humiliation to the trials and burdens of the Freshmen. Thus ended our second year. ln our third year, We came back to study harder than ever. Our number by this time had diminished to eighty-Hve, several having fallen by the wayside. Early in October, class oflicers were elected. Several bakery sales and an indoor circus were staged in order to add some shekels to our treasury. The big event of the year was the junior-Senior party. Due to suggestions offered by school authorities, the annual junior-Senior banquet was discontinued and the party substituted in place of it. But all those present declared that we had the best time ever. Thus ends the history of our junior year-Now watch us step! RHS Thirty-eight SOPHOMO Thirty-nine CLASS 012 1925 'W The Class of 1925 Behold! The sophisticated Sophomores appear. When we become Seniors things will hum, never fear. We have noted musicians, and athletes, too. While, as students, we're the best the teachers ever knew. In football, track, and on the basket-ball floor, When the coach needs a good man, he hunts a husky Sophomore. In Academic contests and in Literary, too, We stick at the top, like a bottle of glue. lt's for good old Rochy High, that we study and try, And there are still two more years before we say good-bye. But when we pass out as the Class of '25, Everyone will say that we're the best class alive. ANNA CRON, '25 Forty ll FRESHMAN x 1 'fl 5 W . ,asffm figs gf 5?

' However, this class has taken a very active part in the various school activities and has on its roll the names of several who will help R. H.

H. S. had a school paper pub- lished for the students, by the students. This publication, The Blue and White, was originated by two Senior boys, Geyer Cook and jack Malone. These boys, having some journalistic ability, had long desired to publish a paper for our own students. However, their dream was never realized until October, l923, when after much planning and scheming, the Hrst issue of The Blue and White made its appearance. The editorial staff of The Blue and White was composed of jack Malone, Editor-in-Chief, Geyer.Cook and George Gossett, Assistant Editors, Mr. Litzenburg, Faculty Advisor, and Mildred Anderson and Mary Francis McDonald, Stenographers. I ln its first form, the paper was very small, but it was such an in- stantaneous success that it was found necessary to enlarge it. Because of various difhculties which were met with, it was published but once each month. The Blue and White was an eight-page publication which contained all athletic and sports news, faculty articles, social news and the latest jokes. lt was no easy task to gather and arrange material for publication and the editorial staff received no remuneration whatever for their effort, it was only out of pure love of journalism and a hope that they might increase interest in the high school that The Blue and White was published. lt is our opinion that the paper encouraged school spirit and 'increased interest, and it is our sincere hope that the future editors of 'tThe Blue and White will uphold the traditions of R. H. S. ' w'iiF1'sm U Forty-four M I R A G E 22 CAsT HSHE Sroors TO CoNQuER Left to right lslltllltfillgf' llE1nloER, BALDWIN, Ross, KAMMHQ, Menon, Bkoww, REISING CoLE, jAvENs, ScANLoN,' CSvatedJ.'

The Dramatic Club The faculty of Rochester High School believes that training in Oral Expression is one of the most important parts of our course of study in English. lt also believes that student participation in the Dramatic Club is one of the most effective ways for developing this power of oral expression. Under the able direction of Professor Lewis Litzenberg, assisted by Mrs. Litzenberg, the Dramatic Club this year staged two plays, both of which were highly successful. The Hrst was She Stoops to Conquer. This was followed a month later by 'Adventures of a College Bride. We look forward to great accomplishments in the field of dramatics next year. Z -l?-'?Q5. -- E' Forty-flvc 3'T T5'E5'T Music A As Bill Shakespeare says: V The rnan that bath no music in bis soul, Is it for treasons, stratagerns, and spoils. ln Rochester High, we are not attempting to turn out a bunch of Galli-Curci's or Paderewskis, but we do aim to have a student body which can appreciate good music. Hence, those who are thus talented are encouraged to develop their ability. The others are alforded every possible opportunity to hear good music and to cultivate a taste for it. To this end, we entered the various musical contests at Geneva College and, although the prizes all went to other schools, yet, in our own personal opinion, our representatives there made a decidedly favorable impression, and the benefits derived justilied the effort involved. Next year, somebody has got to step lively in order to win over us. Our musical training lies in three Helds of development. First the orchestra, under the able direction of Prof. Robert Barner, comes in for a great share of the commendation. Although handicapped by a lack of instru- ments of the proper type, Mr. Barner has done wonders with the orchestra. We believe that no student orchestra in the country is able to produce any better music than ours. A new Held in the development of musical appreciation is the musical memory contest. The third type of contest was the choral contest. Under the able direction of Miss Helen Coe, Director of Music in the Rochester Schools, this group of con- testants made a very creditable showing. The increased interest being taken in music in Rochester High is a very hopeful sign and we look forward to great accom- plishments in the future.

S. as students and as chums, the idea was conceived that by means of election, the Senior class alone should determine its most popular girls and boys. With so much Hne material available the election was a hot one but nnally the choice of the class became determined. The remainder of the Senior class as well as the rest of the school and faculty were kept in ignorance of the outcome. Finally, with the issue of the Mirage by our own Senior class of good old R. H.

Although handicapped by a lack of sufiicient equipment, the classes made good progress, and we feel that the time was quite prohtably spent. The average person prizes good health and a strong body above everything else. At any rate, although the schools were primarily organized for the purpose of guiding the mental development of the youths of the land, we realize that a strong intellect is not of much use without a strong body to go with it. In other words, proper physical development is just as important as proper mental growth. Hence, the necessity for a Department for Physical Training. We congratulate Miss Lloyd on her success in effectively organizing this work. Fifty ACTIVITIES A.AA --T.fl.'?.--Ml5f9.9.!?-- Football Training Camp On june fifth when the school doors were closed and the students were about ready to start on their vacation, f'Pop Grimm issued a call of assembly to all those who were interested in a football training camp during a part of the vacation period. A large number of enthusiasts answered the call and appeared so enthusi- astic that it was decided to arrange for a football camp for the third consecutive year. Sometime later in the summer the boys were informed, to their delight, that they would depart from their beloved city to a lovely spot along the Harmony route-namely the Pflug farm,-where they would go into intensive training for two weeks. The eventful day soon came around and on August seventeenth a band of about thirty huskies assembled at the high school and, with several tons of luggage, eagerly awaited the trucks which were to convey them to their destination. After what seemed ages, their patience was rewarded, for the baggage was soon loaded and they were off for two weeks of big experience. Due to some trouble along the way, the camping delegation did not arrive on the scene until nearly Hve o'clock and then the boys were put to work clearing the brush and fixing up the spot which was to be their home for two weeks. The location was ideal and was blessed with a large swimming pool which refreshed the boys many times during their stay in camp. That evening found everyone eager to seek repose as they fully realized that the following day would hold big things. Everyone reported for breakfast in the morning refreshed and the cooks were kept busy satisfying the hungry lads, but soon everyone was done justice and Coach Grimm announced that practice would begin in earnest. A short jog took us to a large Held where we fell on the ball and did work of that stort 'till we realized one day had been fully spent. From then on we had a daily routine to perform, not forgetting for one moment our friend Bozo who soon found a lovely spot beneath a large tree where we soon got acquainted with him and found him to be without a doubt a tough boy, possessing a wonderful kick and taking his bumps without a groan. There will never be any of the boys who will ever forget their memorable acquaintance with good old Bolo , for without him our boys would never have become skilled in the art of hitting their opponents the way 'fPop wanted' them hit. The days went by, each one holding many tasks for the boys, who worked hard to make the camp a big success. Had it not been for the two cooks the camp would have been a dismal failure, but the appetizing menus which Mrs. Grimm and Mrs. Ewing put before the boys kept them in the best of spirits and they worked with a will to the time when they would answer junie's call. But in spite of the work there was also lots of fun and the days at camp will always be remembered as happy days. Each tent, fthere were seven besides the cookys tent,j tried to claim the title of the toughest tent in camp and each man tried hard to bring the laurels to his tent. In spite of the fact that this domicile was in the country the other camps must have thought they were on the shores of Hawaii for each RHS I: Fifty-one tent possessed a ukelele player and they did their stuff at every opportunity, a number of the boys returning to town with no little knowledge of music. A nightly occurrence was the pilgrimage of The Sheik who went forth at dusk each evening to sing his song and receive his plaudits.Q???j During the stay in camp he brought untold honor to his tent with his golden voice. These and many other things will remain fresh in the minds of the boys who look back to their camp life as the best they ever experienced. Visitors were frequent despite the fact that the camp was not an easy place to rind and it was before one of these days of visiting ':Toughy turned back to his old profession as barber and shaved off Hart's beautiful beard that had been in the making since camp began. He made a hne job of it and bids fair for success in that profession. Surrounded by their daily work and their time for fun the two weeks soon were ended and the lads prepared to start back to the bright lights of their beloved city ready to show the backers of the blue and white that the team they supported would be capable of doing great things. The Rochester team possessed the best set of coaches for a high school team in the country. They certainly were there when it came to getting results. Professor S. R. Grimm, fbut the boys called him just plain Pop ,j was head coach, and a better master mind the team could never acquire. Out every day, rain or shine, working with his fellows and drilling them to play the game hard and clean, he used a system which touched the boys and they would work for him to the end. With an able assistant the burden of responsibility can be eased somewhat and so when W. S. Tippen came into the camp one afternoon the team got hold of another fine coach and pal. Tip went about things exactly like 'lPop and soon gained the utmost conhdence of the boys. L. S. Duncan made the team that made the varsity by his faithful and hard work with the second string men and the scrubs and the varsity could always be assured that he had something up his sleeve when it came to pulling off new plays on them. L. C. Litzenberg was also a faithful worker and together with Duncan contributed his bit , , Bill Frank, one of the best friends the boys ever had, was out at camp for a time caring for the injured and always giving them the word of encouragement. He was there every game in the capacity of trainer, and not a player will ever forget Bill's,' faithfulness to the blue and white. The familiar clause, when do we eat? attracts attention and the cooks are in for their share. Better eats could not have been had and Mrs. Grimm and Mrs. Ewing will always be remembered as having found the way to the boys' hearts. Of course Mr. Grimm was there to see that the women did not get too generous, but everyone was satished at every meal and were sure of some comfort with Pop's daily version of eat here and die at home. Doc, Piersol couldn't keep away but did not Gnd any severe casualties with Bill around. On the last day of camp, the camp was plunged into some sorrow for Elmer Roush was injured while at work with 'fBoZo, suffering a broken collar bone. There were no other injur- ies except the usual bumps and bruises and the football training camp of 1922 can be looked over as one of the best that has ever been had at the good old Rochester High School. R HS Fifty-two ,. ,few .. , nf.. - .N-5 'T--ISE! 'fHETii2iTii'2iioiEm - -i'5E5' Review of the Football Season ROCHESTER 13-ALUMNI 6 CSeptember 239 Coach Grimm's gridders got off to a clean start by defeating the strong Alumni team in an extremely hard fought game only after a big come-back in the last half by the high school lads. Because of the fact that they had been practicing several weeks after returning from a two weeks' training camp, the high school team displayed good form for the opening game. The Alumni team was the strongest that has ever been pitted against the high school lads and the victory over them reflects a great deal upon the ability of Coach Grimm's players. ROCH ESTER 36-AM B RIDGE 0 The Ambridge aggregation gave little or no resistance to the steady drive which the Rochester team directed against them and they were forced to take a decisive drubbing , playing against nothing but straight football. Hoehl, brilliant quarterback for the blue and white, ran wild over the up-river team and directed his plays so well that nearly every man on the squad had a chance to demonstrate his playing ability before the contest had ended. ROCHESTER 0-CHARLEROI 0 COctober 145 The Rochester High School boys struck a Tartar in the Charleroi team and after righting hard through four full periods of action, the blue and white team was forced to return home with a tie score. The Charleroi team was a good little team against a good big team and they gave Coach Grimm's players one of the hardest games of the entire season. The blue and white did tally once when Douds picked up a fumble and ran half of the field for an add but the score was not allowed by the ofiicials. The Rochester team was plainly off form and did not play its best brand of ball at any time during the game. This was the second tie game for the Rochester School in a period of three years. ROCHESTER I2-BEAVER FALLS 0 COctober 281 As in former years the game with Beaver Falls eleven was the big game of the season for the Falls machine had been running wild over all resistance and were picked to beat Rochester lads by a good score. The two teams battled together through a scoreless half with the Rochester lads having the edge over their rivals in all departments. The Beaver Falls team were relying mostly on the end runs of their fleet backs, Littell and Hiddleson, to bring them the game, but they were unable to gain a yard around the terminals and very little through the line. A blocked punt by Ganoe was recovered by Douds back of the Falls goal line for the hrst tally and later on Hoehl grabbed a neat pass from Bloom and eluded Hiddleson, the only man between himself and the goal line. The Rochester offense was launched with a great driving power which carried all opposition before it, while the defensive playing was of high caliber. ' ROCHESTER 0-NEW BRIGHTON 0 fblovember 41 After their hard struggle with the Beaver Falls team the Rochester lads 'were scheduled to meet the strong New Brighton aggregation on their own field and this game resulted in another tie, the second one for the Blue and White in the season. The contest was hotly contested with the aerial game being much in evidence. It was one of these passes that Hoehl grabbed when over.the goal line, but one of the Rochester linemen was caught olfside and the score was not allowed. The Rochester lads showed some real playing at various times and they carried the ball on steady drives down the field only to lose it when they had the goal line within easy distance. -,!?.H-?i-- U Fifty-three ii5E5ii' i'if'HEwMii'ii'2i'o'i3H' --1923 ROCHESTER 0-MONACA 12 CNovember Ill For the first time in three years a football team representing'Rochester High met defeat at the hands of an opposing team when it bowed before the strong Monaca outfit on Armistice Day. The Rochester team registered more nrst downs than its opponents but the boys seemed unable to End themselves, and played a feeble brand of ball most of the time. Hoehl seemed to be the only back who could gain any ground against the southsiders, and it was this scrappy player who kept the remnants of a Hghting team together and prevented further disaster. Hood was very much in evidence for the winners. His fine punting and passing figured a great deal and he kicked two held goals from the thirty yard line. The Rochester terminals did not yield much ground, most of the end runs being turned in as a result of the brilliant playing of Canoe. This was the first time since 1916 that a Monaca team has been able to register a victory over a Rochester High team. The Rochester boys took their de- feat with a better spirit than can be found anywhere and received a lot of credit for their sportsmanship. ' ROCHESTER 26-fELLWOOD CITY 0 CNovember l8J The following Saturday Ellwood City was met on their own field and the Rochester aggregation showed a complete change in the brand of ball which they displayed, running the terminals at ease and smashing their opponent's line for substantial gains. ln every stage of the game the Ellwood boys were outclassed and were unable to get within the Rochester ter- ritory deep enough to cause any trouble. Only on a few occasions was the Rochester back- field unable to gain any ground. lt plunged through the line countless times for Hrst downs which resulted in four touchdowns. Ellwood's' end runs failed utterly and on only a few occasions could they penetrate the Blue and White wall and then our backheld grabbed them before any harm was done. Had the team played this brand of ball when it met the Nlonaca aggregation the Saturday before the score would have been a great deal different. ROCHESTER l4-VANDERGRIFT 0 CNovember 25D Nothing much was heard of the Vandergrift eleven except that they were credited with a strong and aggressive team, therefore the Rochester team looked forward to a hard battle. The game was staged on a snow covered Held which hampered both teams to a great extentg but even the elements could not keep Hoehl from his usual pilgrimage around the terminals. Several times he carried the ball to within striking distance of the Vandergrift goal line and directed numerous passes which totaled a neat yardage. Ganoe grabbed one of these for the tirst score. Konvolinka, through the line, netted one more touchdown, and Hoehl booted two drop kicks between the uprights for the extra points. The Rochester team displayed much the better teamwork, while their offensive work was outstanding throughout. Coach Grimm sent in a number of substitutes without any apparent letup in the team's play. ROCHESTER 39--BEAVER 0 fNovember 305 Coach Grimm's gridders wound up their season on Turkey Day by walking all over the County Seaters and working their plays for a total of six touchdowns. lt seemed that every- thing Hoehl called was effective and the backheld men tore the Beaver line to shreds with their line plunging. The, hne punting of Bissell featured for the losers, yet they were unable to come within striking distance of the Rochester goal line, so strong was the Blue and White defense. This encounter brought the season to a fitting climax after a fairly successful season. The Beaver game displayed the real playing ability of Coach Grimm's boys, and this, coupled with the old time rivalry between the two schools, made them fight every inch to hnish up the season in a brilliant victory. . . . g 'E' Fifty-four NEL- OR ENTZER, Howra, C 'lAGAN, D IN EISS, VOLINKA, W ON soN, MURRAY, K e row: ATKIN l Midd joe HOGAN, RE1slNo. LoN, HOGAN, SCAN HOLLER, JOHN KER, EC t row: RIGGS, D f07'l F SENIOR LETTER MEN, 1923 Left to right CS7fCl11di7ZgD.'

CBloom missing from picturej The Senior Letter Men The present Senior graduating class has done a great deal in contributing to the success of athletics in R. H. S. Some of the best performers in the major sports have been turned out during the four years in which our fellows participated in contests for the Blue and White. ln football the Senior class was represented by nine players, seven of which are on the varsity, while in basket-ball three places were ,held down by Seniors. ln last year's track team, although it was far from being boastful, the present Seniors held sway in practically every event, placing about seven men in the Held. Not only in athletics have the Seniors been active but also in musical and liter- ary lines. There are a number of them in the orchestra, while the present literary team is composed of nearly all Seniors. Throughout the four years in the halls of Rochester High School the class has always manifested a keen interest in every- thing connected with our school and has worked hard to bring all the honor pos- sible upon the good old Blue and White. Fifty-six , 1 e SWEDEN BLOOM CAPTAIN, 1923-HALFBACK . Throughout his four years in Rochester High School Bloom has been one of the mainstays both in football and in track. He was a substitute on the championship team of l920 and earned his letter in that year. The following year he earned a berth on the varsity as a half- back and has held that position again this year, being elected captain of last year's team for his brilliant showing. He was rated as one of the fastest men in the valley and in track showed to advantage in the dashes. Bloomie comes from a football familv and has surely kept up the good name during his playing days. BlTTER HOEHL ' QUARTERBACK Bitter began his career in his Sophomore year by stepping into a varsity berth at half- back, playing on the championship team of 1920 and figuring prominently in obtaining the honors. He was one of the fastest men on the gridiron that year and earned for himself the title of the flying Dutchman. Throughout the season his long runs and spectacular playing were witnessed and when the season came to a close, he stood well up the ladder of gridiron success. In the spring he took up track and captured several medals in the dashes, being one of the fastest men in the county. The following year Hoehl started the football season at the end position but his loss in the backfield was too keen and he was removed to take the quarter- back position which he held the rest of the year. His playing this year surpassed that of his hrst appearance and with a great deal of experience and increased speed he was feared by all the opponents of the Blue and White. His stellar work and consistent playing earned for him the unanimous choice for the All- County Scholastic position of quarterback. Hoehl's ability as a player is far beyond any possible doubt and his graduation will leave a vacancy hard to fill, for Bitter has a foot- ball mind and usually called the right one at the right time. He was never removed from any game due to injuries and was one of the hardest players that ever graced a high school football team. CHUCK EWING TACKLE Throughout his four years in high school Chuck has been a big factor in the course of our athletics and besides being the biggest fellow in our class he has probably earned more letters than any of our other players. ln his freshman year Chuck was a substitute and showed to much advantage, coming back strong the following year and earning a place on the varsity as a guard. He played consistent ball all season and made one of the strongest points in the line. The following year his experience together with much more height and weight made him one of the best assets of the teamg but misfortune seemed to follow him and in one of the first games of the season he received an injury which kept him out of action for the remainder of the time. He was elected basket-ball captain for the ensuing year but was unable to play on account of his injury. Determined to show his real mettle in his last year at school Chuck rounded out for himself the respect of every opponent which he was called upon to meet and was a big cog in the working of the Blue and White machine. f'BlLL CANOE END On the honor roll of all the noted wing men that have brought honors to Rochester High School we find Bill's name far up among the leadersg for without a doubt he was one of the greatest ends that has ever worn the colors of the Blue and White. Like many others, he was a substitute on the team of 1920 and began to show great promise. ' His last year found him one of the best players on the teamg his steady playing and ability to get down under punts spelled worry for the opposition time and again. He had an un- canny ability to pull down passes at any angle and when anything was needed and the aerial game put into operation 'fBill could always be seen making his way clear for one of his E' .... ---l?..H.5-- Fifty-seven 5, W, jf,-r 7-5165+ M-E-rg-vo -i--f-.qfrggrjfw-ri,-.v-...auf -,--M W 'T'-f5'55'ii 'r'P1'E'viMiiiRi2i'o'E ' 'C-'-SESS clean catches that he effected so often. His playing won for him the All-Scholastic Beaver County position at end two years straight and his playing surely justified the selection. ART FRENCH CENTER Art started his career in his Sophomore year while playing the role of a substitute at the halfback position. This enabled him to pick up much experience and he came back strong the following year, starting the season at the quarter position but later went to the halfback berth. His playing was not flashy but steady and consistent. ln the title game with Westinghouse Art was given his chance to shine and the work he did in that game will not be soon forgotten. He pulled one of the prettiest runs in the game when he intercepted a forward pass and eluding all tacklers ran thirty-Hve yards to where he was forced out of bounds. With one year of varsity experience he started out his last year in earnest and played the position of center and tackle on the alternating offensive and defensive. Through- out the season his work stood out and his playing never stopped till the final whistle. HOPPER MEYER GUARD Like many of the others Hopper started his career on the gridiron by a season of work as a substitute but his worth was too well realized to remain there long and the follow- ing year his stature, combined with a great deal of natural playing ability, placed him on the varsity at the guard position. The training camp, however, sort of blighted things for the first few games, for he suffered a broken collar bone at camp and this injury kept him out of quite a few games. He broke into the lineup at last, playing his guard position, and then things were uncomfortably hot for all his opponents. Without a doubt he is one of the nicest working cogs in the machine and he more than held his own with the other big boys. TY KONVOLINKA HALFBACK In his Sophomore ,year Kob decided to keep up the name his brother had made on the gridiron while under the Blue and White and therefore he proceeded to map out for him- self one of the best of careers as a halfback. He was a substitute his first year, but the following season came back with a rush and earned for himself a versity berth. lt was during this season that his ready toe and keen ability to punt brought to his team the laurels in many a tough game. He showed to much advantage throughout the season, but received a little tough luck when he was forced to retire from the Westinghouse game due to old injuries. With the prospects of his last before him Koh worked hard at his old position in the backheld but in the very hrst game with the Alumni he received an injury which kept him out of the majority of the games. His playing throughout marked him as one of the most dependable of the backheld quartet, while his line plunging was always a source of some yardage. k': 'RAGS EDWARDS GUARD Although Rags never made the varsity he has been one of Coach Grimm's depend- ables for three years and ended up his football activities by cinching his letter this year on the gridiron. He always showed to a good advantage when injected into the game and played hard and consistent ball. He was also one of the mainstays on the basket-ball team, holding down the guard position there and making his letter in the cage game also. Another player like f'Rags for dependable moments will be hard to find. BILLY DENTZER HALFBACK Billy was also a member of the scrub varsity for two years and played the position of halfback. His efforts were crowned with success in his final year when he earned his letter for the first time. He was also a member of the Village Pickups, playing the position of guard, and together with Meyer represented the Senior quota for this team. 1: RHS El ,,,,,,, -v----o,--- ------- Fifty-eight Coaches S. R. GRIMM HEAD COACH Five years ago the guidance of the Rochester High School football machine was placed under the supervision of one whom the fellows hrst came to know as one lVlr. Grimm. Later on during their days of practice under his watchful eye they discovered that he was not only a coach in the true sense of the word but was just one of them while he was putting his theories to practice. Every day their friendship increased until instruction under him be- came, not a daily grind for the boys, but a pleasure. Pop's system of training suited the fellows to a T and soon the keen rivals of the Blue and White were wondering if the Rochester team- should not be looked to seriously. Season after season the Rochester teams came through with colors flying and rose from the lowest rung on the ladder to the highest rung attainable, due largely to the football strategy of the man who is known as Pop . Soon the game with Rochester was looked to as the biggest on the season's card and every effort extended to lower the standards of the Blue and White. But Pops coaching ability outshone that of all his opponents and while he fought his game on the bench his proteges were out on the Held demonstrating what he really knew about the game. So he has risen, year after year, producing teams whose caliber remains undisputed, de- veloping men from the greenest sort of material to seasoned players eagerly awaited by the colleges. His interest in the team has always been for the best and his policy a never failing one. All the boys who have at any time been under his instruction know that 'fPop is a true sport, an advocate of clean play, a good loser, although he has scarcely been called upon to demonstrate this quality, and that if they play the game the way he has directed them 'to display their prowess, the honor of the barred field will continue to come to the garner of the Rochester High School. Our hats are off to Mr. S. R. Pop Grimm, the greatest coach and Pal that has ever taken his place under the standards of the good old Blue and White. WALDO S. TIPPEN ASSISTANT COACH The coaching staff received another valuable possession with the addition of Coach Tippen to Pop Grimm's staff of assistants. We met Tip for the nrst time when he arrived quite unexpectedly at football camp last August, although we had heard a long time before of his brilliant record as captain of Geneva College's 1921 championship team. He proved a wonder with the fellows and without much trouble got them all working diligently. His methods Htted exactly with those of Coach Grimm. Throughout the season Tip was taking turns with Pop in drilling the varsity and perfecting the plays and he surely comes in for a large share of the pie when it comes to handing out the credit. LEONARD S. DUNCAN ASSISTANT COACH Coach Duncan nrmly believed that to have a winning varsity it was quite necessaryito possess a high grade 'fscrub varsity and with this point in view he worked hard with his fellows all season, giving them new plays to execute on the varsity and fitting them for a place they could fill when called upon to enter the game. What Coach Duncan really knew about the game the varsity found on many occasions for the scrimmages were hotly contested and everybody eager to 'lshow their stuff. The call ready Mr. Duncan was always answered by preparation for battle and soon the varsity would be learning the opponent's formations and be drilled to break them up. Coach Duncan's work with the scrubs reflects a great deal of credit upon his work. . --!?-H5--- E' ------,, gg.. .nv-----,, 7.7.7.-.v.v.-. Fifty-nine LEWIS C. LITZENBERG ASSISTANT CoAcH Coach Litzenberg went to work hand in hand with Coach Duhcan with the second team and his work with the fellows at camp and at home marks him as one of Coach Grimm's most valuable assistants. This was Litz's second year with the team and during that time he hadedone much towards giving the second team the plays and tricks to play on the varsity, which brought them to top form and offered them a source of good opposition. We sincerely hope that Luz will continue with us and may lend his valuable aid towards the building up of our future teams. B l LL FRAN K Wherever you see Doc Piersol you can look for Bill Frankg in fact, you can nnd him anywhere that has any connection with Rochester High School and the interests of his boys. This was 'fBill's second year with us as trainer and his services were invaluable. At the half he was here, there, and everywhere, hxing up the sore spots and giving the boys a word of encouragement. lf some one got knocked out he was not long getting to them and soon they would be at it again plugging away harder than ever. The fellows can never forget what a pal Bill really was and it will be a sad day witnessed if he ever leaves, but, taking it straight from the good old man himself, he intends to stay until he needs a wheel chair. This interest alone has inspired the boys to Hght and Hght hard when they were on the grid- iron and will not let them forget that they were the best cared for team in many parts. We sincerely hope Bill that you will realize your work and interest in the welfare of the team has not gone unnoticed and it is deeply appreciated not only by the team but by every loyal backer of the Blue and White. ' W DOC PIERSOL A team physician for a high school football team is something that is seldom heard of but the Rochester team is proud to acknowledge that they are the possessors of one, and a mighty good one at that. 'fDoc was always on hand to keep an eye on his boys and when they needed to be patched up he was there on the job to give them the pep to go back in the game and play their best for the good old Blue and White. To anyone with no more than a personal acquaintance with f'Doc , he is just a doctor, but to the boys he was the best kind of a pal and a friend. Any time at all he was ready to care for their needs. lf everyone would show the interest in the team and school that Doc does, the success for the Rochester institution would be little in doubt. DOC MCCASKEY Although Dr. lVlcCaskey's work was not as much in need of as Our Doc's , he did a lot for the boys during the season'in which they acquired so many injuries that required the use of his X-Ray machine to determine whether or not Coach Grimm could count on them being ready to take their placegin the hard games that were ready for his gridders at every turn. They were well taken care of and a lot of credit should be due to Dr. McCaskey for his timely interest in the boys. MR. BEAM Since cleanliness is neirt to godliness Mr. Beam decided that we should have both, and throughout the season he has kept our school as neat as can be. His interest in the boys and the school did not stop here but has gone heartily into everything that has any bearing upon high school activities. As physical examination showed that everyone was healthy we know no one else to blame this on but Mr. Beam, and we hope that he will continue to be with us and feel our appreciation for his good work. 1:1 RHS :I , LL,,A,, , .LLLL ,.

Boys' BasketfBall 'lihe basket-ball team this year ended what could scarcely be called even at lair seasoii, losing the greater part -'if their games, sometimes by decisive scores. .VX couple of spurts were marked by the dual victories over lillwood City and the strong lfreedom team which was the only team that held a victory over Monaca. 'lihe season started otl' with a bang but after several defeats the team seemed to slacken their ellorts, while on numerous occasions only a few of the regulars were in the lineup. The boys showed undoubtedly that they knew their stull , but were just unable to put it across. Coach 'liippen worked hard with the boys all season and surely deserves a lot of credit for the interest in the Blue and White passers. Captain Ganoe was out most ot' the season, while French was scarcely seen in uniform. liwing was a big boost for the team and had he not played most of the games the scores might have been far dillerent. 'lChuck tallied a host of points for his team during the season and figured prominently in every game in which he participated, 7 RHS :L Sixtyetwo if '15i'E iiQi i'iiQi'EE' 14-3E'5' GIRLS' l3ASKET-BALL, H723 Left to right: Slmvsox, Riciititns, Ctimxis Mt1CAi.is'i'i1R, QALITUUN, Axniiicsox, ljtllllillhk, llowie, Tnoivirfsox, Siiutshkt, Cowen Duntziw, Girls' BasketfBall Behold the team of '23l The girls' basket-ball team ot' Rochester lligh School experienced one of the most successful seasons that the Blue and White has ever known. This team, was, without a doubt. the best girls' team that has ever represented Rochester. The county teams this year have all been of championship caliber and the R, ll. S. girls have held their own with the best of them. l'nder the supervision of Coach Duncan, the girls developed a speedy Combination which always took great pride in its excellent teamwork. Ol' the entire schedule of sixteen games, our girls won eight and lost eight, liour ot' the games were lost by a one point margin and one of them by two points. It Mr, ,Iinx had not become so evident in the hrst of the season, our team would have had sixteen victories instead ol eight. The forward positions were well taken care ot' by Elizabeth Calhoon, '24, and Sparky Thompson, '23. Iilixabeth and Sparky formed the fastest forward combination in the county and credit for many victories lies on their husky shoulders, Willie Simpson, '24, had charge of the pivotal position and lew opposing centers got the tip-oil on our lnspector. We prophesy lor her a good season's record for next year. Captain McCalister, '23, and Mildred llowe, '25, played the guard positions. The com- bination formed by these two players is hard to beat. Yon , '23, has managed the team well, scheduling games, planning leeds and playing when needed. Doc Shugert, '23, Sara Poucher, '23, and Mary Anderson, '23, have made a very line showing when playing on the varsity, liach ol' these girls won their HR . We wish to take this opportunity to show our appreciation ol the untiring ellorts and end- less patience shown by Coach Duncan during the entire season We predict lor him a championship teant next year.

Van Dyke's Rules for Good Sportsmanship l. When you play a game, always wish to win, and try to wing otherwise your opponent will have no fun. But never wish to win so much that you cannot be happy without it. Z. Seek to win only by fair and lawful means, and this will leave you without bitterness toward your opponent or shame before others. 3. Take pleasure in the game, even though you do not attain the victoryg for the purpose of the game is not merely to win, but to Gnd joy and strength in the trying. 4. lf you attain the victory which you have so desired, think more of your own good fortune than of your own skill. This will make you grateful and ready to share with others the honor bestowed upon you. And truly, this is both reasonable and prohtable. It is but little that any of us would win in this world, were our fortunesnot better than our deserts.

A very interesting program was given, consisting of several musical numbers and farewell speeches. After the eats were devoured, the remainder of the evening was spent in enjoyable dancing. i Staff Party The 1923 Annual Staff held a party at the home of Mildred Anderson for the purpose of organizing and endeavoring to compose the best Annual ever. The latter part of the evening consisted in playing 500, while dancing also featured. And last, but not least, a de- lightful lunch was served by the committee. When it came time to bid au revoir, all claimed a splendid time had been enjoyed. Senior Dance A The Senior dance was one of the leading social functions of the year. Being held at Thompson's Dancing Academy, the floor was packed to its capacity. Everyone appeared to enjoy themselves until ll:30. It was even then with regret that we drifted home, with the sounds of the Blue Ribbon orchestra still lingering in our ears. Sophomore Party - The Sophomores finally decided it was time for them to have a night of gaiety. So on May 4, they celebrated. The lunch was great and the evening was spent in dancing the latest steps, music being furnished by the celebrated King Tut Orchestra. Freshman Party Poor Freshies were left without the customary reception and after waiting all year with still a hope of it coming, they decided to give themselves a party. They were bound they would have good eats anyway, and they did. Leave it to the Freshies, too, they could dance. All said they had had a good time, and they surely must have, by the yawns which were exhibited the next day. junior Senior Party ' The juniors tendered the Seniors the Hnest party ever given within the walls of R. H. S. ln order to cut down expenses, the annual banquet was dispensed with and a party was given instead. This party afforded everything in the way of amusements, eats and music. The juniors did all within their power to make this a success and our advice to the future classes would be to carry out this same plan and avoid all formalities of a banquet. D. K. N. Club Not long after the memorial hair-shedding of the Freshmen, the junior D. K. N. Club was formed, and the following officers elected: DOROTHY CRAVEN -------- President ELIZABETH CALHOON - - - - V ice-President SARAH lRviN --------- Secretary , HELEN MAGEE - - ------ - Treasurer The bunch have had numerous meetings at homes between Baden and Rochester and when the last car left for either place, they were sure to be aboard. Several parties also contributed to their social life, and as usual the less deadly sex were always on hand to help the members enjoy themselves. As Seniors next year, it will be expected that they will have better times than before. 1: RHS Sixty-seven THE MIRAGE ji Bachelor Girls' Club MARGARET TURNER ------- j Prsident CHRISTINE MILLER - Vice-Preszdent LYDIA BROWN ------ - - Secretary Eleven Bachelor Maids. May we always have that to modify our names. The Bachelor Club was organized at the beginning of the school term, in the same manner as was always the custom. Officers were elected and a general plan of work and social traits was made. The meetings were held every other Monday at the home of some member. An enjoyable time being spent by all. We leave the good reputation to the new-coming members, and we sincerely hope they will endeavor to derive as much pleasure from it as the members of this year have. The Klub Motto: Laugh and the world laughs with youg weep and you weep alone. The J. j. Klub was organized while all of its members were juniors. One dance and several parties have been held and all attending have reported good times. lt is hoped by all that in the years to come these good times will continue. The officers are as follows: YETTB Sroors - - - - President EAM HSINIH - - Vice-President EDURTREG RETREH - - Secretary LEZAI-I ELDNIK - - Trea:nrer D. P. O. S. In the fall of '22, the Was U's and Convict Ten met to unite into what is now known as the B. P. O. S., a political club, which has proven very influential. The meetings 'were very business-like and orderly due to the combination of both sexes in our enrollment. The Beneficial Protective Order of the Seniors is a club worthy to continue its good work in the future years. Was U's The famous bunch who make up this organization advanced from out of the mist just two years ago. Striving together throughall their years of school life, they have climbed the ladder of success and crowned themselves as the Was U's. Owing to the secrecy with which this club was organized and which its activities were carried on, we think it best to conceal from the public the names of its worthy officers. Altogether our form of regulations is very exclusive. We deemed it just upon entering the High School to accept into our midst one new member who has proven herself capable of holding our high ideal. Everyone re- grets that with our departure from R. l-l. S. that the name of Was U's must die, for we feel that our secrets cannot be transferred to others, however worthy. junior Circus March I6 was the date of the Great junior Circus. At seven o'clock the band struck up and headed the parade, which will be remembered as long as R. H, S. stands. The side shows were alive with all sorts of freaks from nature. But the main performance! Barnum and Bailey never outdid this! Trapeze performances, classical dancers, mind readers and real honest-to-goodness animals were everywhere manifest. The juniors think themselves very fortunate because Miss Cornelius was willing to act as faculty advisor. What could a circus do without her help? Nothing! The rest of the faculty was also very kind with their talents. The people of the town were well represented, which led us to believe they must enjoy looking at human monkeys. We hope the coming junior class will carry out our example by continuing to have circuses.
