This consists of a certain number of pupils elected from the classes. To be a member of the coun¬ cil is considered an honor comparable to that of being a member of a champion ath¬ letic team, and sometimes is greatly sought for. In a college the duties of the Student Council are greater than in most high schools. Stories are sometimes read of college students being brought before the council for minor offenses, tried and sen¬ tenced. This is in itself a good thing, as the students cannot blame the professor or the dean for trying to get even with them. But in order to do this, a council must be working well and he well organized. The work of the council, however, is, as a rule, a little different from this, especially in high schools. In the high schools, the duty of the gov¬ erning hoard or school council is to pro¬ mote the welfare of the school and stu¬ dents, to arrange and take charge of school assemblies and to bring about a closer re¬ lationship between the faculty and the stu¬ dent body. When the council gets in good “working trim, especially in the larger schools, it makes most of the regulations which affects the scholars every day. Moreover, each member on the council is supposed to sot a good example to the rest of the students. This year the students of Scar boro High School have organized a Student Council. It consists of four members from the THE FOUR CORNERS 7 Senior class, three members from the Junior class, two from the Sophomore, and one from the Fresh man. It has taken over diHerein socials of the season and it has prepared assembly programs. I his is done by means of committees. It has managed a school store. In a few years it should be in a good condition to carry on even more work, and as it grows in years it will grow in in- fluonec. THE SCHOOL ORCHESTRA An oivhestra isjmeof the finest and most hcneKoial things in a high school, and one that serves to bring the public ami flic schools into a pleasant ami uplifting eon- taet. Besides this, it is a pleasure to the parents to have their children, for whom they have given of their time, energy and money, obtain this great opportunity of playing in public, which is one of the most important things in music and should be bad as early as possible. Even though the orchestra is not a large one, line tilings may be accomplished. I tliink, for an orchestra of our size, the best, type of music to be played would be the semi-classic or semi-jazz. The advantages of playing in an orches¬ tra arc that the student learns, to some ex¬ tent, poise; he learns to keep an even tempo, and also gains a good sense of rhythm. GROWTH OF SCARBORO Ton years ago the population of Scar- horo was two hundred less than it was the previous decade. For a number of years its population has been at a standstill, but now it is back to normal and promises to continue growing. There are a number of reasons why Scarboro s population will probably con¬ tinue to grow. The new high school build¬ ing has caused an upgrowth, as many peo¬ ple are moving here so that their children may have the opportunity to go to high school. The surest indication of a town ' s growth is the increasing number of pu¬ pils attending schools, and that this is true in Scar boro is proved by the overflowing buildings in all the sections of the town. The new highway is another factor which adds greatly to its growth. In the last few years, at least fifty new houses have been added to Scar boro, to say nothing of hotels and summer camps. Scarboro also lias several summer re¬ sorts, and is favored with a number of beaches. This makes Scarboro a vacation land. The airport, which is near the main highway, is another booster of our town. A summer Hying school for college stu¬ dents is already under way. Among those who have registered up to the present time are students from large universities out¬ side the state. The new broadcasting station, WCSH, erected on Plummer’s Hill, calls attention, with its towering spires, to Scarboro’s latest development. Scarboro now lias an industry. McCann lias opened up a manufacturing plant on Grccnncrc. This is to be for the manufac¬ ture of fire apparatus. It will undoubt¬ edly cause some increase in population. If its past record is any criterion, we may safely say that Scarboro is headed for a future of prosperous development. THE USE OF LEISURE Since the advent of the shorter working day and era of labor-saving devices, with their attendant higher wage scale and in¬ creased hours of leisure, the question of profitable employment of such leisure has become of paramount importance. At present spare time, to the average Ameri- s THE FOUn COIiXERS can, moans entertainment via radio, movies, or the good old gas buggy.” Without a doubt, eaeli of the three has contributed and always will contribute a valuable something to the education of the American people. The radio has brought ns into almost personal contact with great men and vital movements. The popular demand for better programs has resulted in broadcasts of the highest and most varied nature. Even the schoolroom has felt the in¬ fluence of this new instrument for instruc¬ tion. particularly in music and history. With the exit of the silent film and the entrance of what has been termed the ‘‘squawkie,” the legitimate stage, if we may judge hy current editorials, has suffered at least a temporary setback. In a period of transition, it is valueless to speculate over the ultimate result upon the culture of the nation. Clear diction, if over at¬ tained in the talking film, will certainly reach a larger number of those who need its benefits than the spoken drama of the last generation ever has. The automobile has furnished what probably has more all-round value than either of the other two. Amusement, edu¬ cational contacts, health, and happiness for the whole family together follow in the wake of the general exodus of Ameri¬ cans whom balmy days lure to “the far trail, the long trail, the trail that is ever now ' Afore important than all, the proper use of leisure should mean hours spent in the companion si lip of great minds of the past, hi the accomplishment of this, the home, school, and church should join in cultivat¬ ing a deep and enduring love for great lionks. Heading aloud in tin family circle is one of the best ways to develop a real taste for what is truly good. Sooner or later in life every person will find circum¬ stances where hooks will give him what be cannot find elsewhere ' —mental food, com¬ panionship. and spiritual inspiration. Our splendid record at the Lewiston Tourney is now history and it makes lhe sort of history lesson that we enjoy. Ovalifying as that experience was, it is (veil more so to think of the wonderful outburst of enthusiasm that greeted the team when tluv returned, Scarboro cer¬ tainly knows how to kill the fatted on If when occasion justifies it. The coach and squad take this spare to express their gratitude for the various courtesies ac¬ orn dc-d thrni; to Messrs. Tullius, Knight, and Senvey for arranging tin splendid banquet at ihe Dnnseroft: to the t’ivic League for entertainment ar a bountiful public supper; to Mr. and Mrs. Selins Hold sou for the beautiful tulips in our school colors tliar decorated the tables, and to any and all others who in any way con¬ tributed to make our basketball season a successful and memorable mu . Support is everything to a school, and we certainly have it in Scar boro. Little by little the grounds about our beautiful new building are taking shape. This year the budget committee recom¬ mended another sum toward the work of guiding, and within the n xt few years this most necessary project should be well on its way toward completion. The Civic League, ever a staunch friend of the school, at a recent meeting set aside the sum of $100 for the purchase of trees when the grounds shall he ready to receive them. Such action could well lx imitated by graduating classes and alumni organiza¬ tions and would serve a dual purpose, by beautifying their alma mater and adding to the tics of sentiment that already bind them to the institution.

However, she doesn ' t appre¬ ciate being called a “hick” by a visiting team. “Clam diggers” is so much more modern and delicate, eh, what. Hilda? ANNA KENNISTON Anna, after having globe-trotted for three years, at last settled down with us to graduate. We can ' t publish her statistics on account of the number of schools she has attended, but during this year we have come to know her as a jolly, companionable girl. L A LESSON IN CITIZENSHIP Ellon bad just conic over from Holland. Sho was very anxious to get acquainted with flic American children and to see wonderful America, about which she had heard so much. It was a bright morning in September when little Ellen started out for her first- day in an American school. How happy she was! How she had dreamed of it in Holland and imagined how nice the girls would be to her! What a good time she thought she would have 1 As she came into the schoolyard, she saw all the girls, with their pretty colored dresses, talking and laughing together. As she drew near, they stopped and stared at her. She went past them into the school¬ room. The teacher came to her and told her she could listen to the lessons today until she understood what she wanted to take besides English. Then she told her she could go out and play with the other girls until school started. So Ellen went out.happily and walked towards a group of girls. As she drew near, the girls pretended not to see her and walked away whispering among them¬ selves. She heard one of thorn say, as she passed, “See what funny shoes she wears. We don’t want her with us. She would be sure to disgrace us.” Ellen felt a big lump in her throat. She turned away from the girls and started for 1 lie schoolroom. Oh, how she wished she was hack in dear old Holland, where every¬ one was always kind to strangers! How glad siie would be when school was over! Then she heard the bell ring and saw all the children flocking into the school- house, so she followed the rest, and when she was inside the teacher showed her a seat beside a pretty girl with brown curls. She was so pretty that Ellen smiled at her. When she saw Ellen looking at her, she turned her head the other way and whis¬ pered something to the girl on the other side, who giggled. Ellen felt the lump in her throat again and this time her eye¬ lashes were wet, but she tried to hide them. The forenoon passed and noon came. Ellen tried to eat some of the lunch which her mother had put up so carefully for her, but the food seemed to stick in her throat. Finally the afternoon bell rang and Ellen listened carefully to the lessons. Suddenly she looked out of the window and was surprised to see that the sky was black in the west with thunder heads and the wind was whistling through the trees. She turned her attention to the lesson again, but she could not keep her mind on it. The thunder rumbled in the distance. Then it came nearer and the rain fell in torrents. The thunder increased until it 14 THE FOUR CORXERS was a continuous roar and the flashes of lightning were blinding. Suddenly there was a ferritic crash and the sound of splintering wood. Ellen heard the screams of the children as parts of the building fell and burst into flames. Every¬ body rushed for the door and the passage was soon blocked with terrified children. Xo one knew how it happened, but everyone listened as a commanding voice, with n foreign accent, said, “bine up ! ' ? The children felt themselves being pushed into line and then they marched out. As Ellen watched the last one. the girl with the brown curls, go by her into the open, there was a crocking and. before she could move, a large piece of burning wood came crashing down, and Ellen was pinned beneath it. When she awoke, she saw her teacher standing beside her with a large hunch of roses in her arms. ‘■Oh. dev is pretty 1” Ellen murmured. Her teacher smiled down at her. “The ■children sent you these. she said. “They were so ashamed when you were taken to the hospital from the fire that they haven ' t felt right since. Every day they have in¬ quired about you and asked when they will be able to see yon. You were so brave at the tire that it has taught them a lesson that they will not forget soon ' “You rink dev vill like meT Ellen queried. “Why, they all like you now, Ellen, and they are so sorry for the way thev treated you. Will you forgive them ' f The happy tears rolled down Ellens checks. “Course, i’ll forgive deni ! ’ she an¬ swered. “I so glad I eonie to dis America!” A. E. F., ’33. THE SPELL OF THE CARIBEES A moon like a great red lantern hung motionless in the purple sky as tin gray yacht. Coral, slid through the still Hahn mu wa t ors. By the lee rail stood two figures side by side. A voice, that of a girl, rose soft and low like a sigh on the tropical night. “Oh. Daddy! It ' s so lovely, so gorgeous! I hadn ' t dreamed it was like this! Another voice answered. It was that of a man. “Because yon were young then and were used to such dreary surroundings ' “Daddy, why is it this Mack ' Del- monte has so much power over yon? lie seems to have you right under his fingers. “Anlell. dear girl, lest you should for¬ get. yon must take all of these splendid nights and enjoy them, for we know not what is to come. With these words lie left her. Anlell had already entered the land of thought. She recalled the little island be¬ tween Hairi and Cuba. She recalled her childhood there. Martin Drummond, her father, had been .lack Dclmonte ' s partner in those days. Together they owned the pineapple plantation that nearly covered the island. Even then, Del monte had been the more important partner, though much younger, and with every passing year her father ' s interest waned. Anlell also re¬ called the time when her father had re¬ linquished the captaincy of the yacht in favor of Del monte. Then, when she was fourteen years of age. she was sent away to school in Massa¬ chusetts. What had happened afterwards at the island Ardell had no way of know¬ ing. But now she would soon know, for she wa is going hack there, after four years of fashionable school that had seen her blossom from a tow-headed girl into a brown-haired young woman. THE FOUR CORNERS 15 The moment she had stopped on the Coral to sail home, she met a tall, dark, manly, young fellow 1 y the name of Hilly Wright. She liked him very much and her falher did, also. Billy eared little for the captain and would hardly take orders from him. There seemed also to he a strain of dislike between the two of them. It existed to such an extent that Dclmontc would hold a mysterious little sneer while in Billy’s company. As time passed, the two became hitter enemies, hardly speaking to each other. It. happened that one day, as Ardell was coming from her cabin below, she beard her father and the captain talking in harsh tones. So she stopped on the stairs to listen. She heard the rough voice of Del monte, “Remember, Drummond, I paid her way through that school and I’ll have her, or you give me what it cost to put her through!” A faint feeling came over her. So Dclmontc had financed her way through school. If she had only known! It was too late now, however. Tier father, she knew, was penniless. Again that harsh voice. “It was her mother’s wish that she should go there. Only for me, it wouldn’t have been car¬ ried out!” Her mother! Ardell had never known her mother. She had died on the island when Ardell was hut a baby. That night Ardell didn’t sleep well. For hours she tossed, wondering, won¬ dering what tomorrow and all her tomor¬ rows would bring. She awoke with a ray of early morning sun streaming gayly through the porthole. Then, after a lazy yawn or two, she leaped out of bed and pattered to the port¬ hole. St ail ding on her toes, she peeped through it with a gasp of joy. She not only was greeted by a calm sea and a blue sky, hut hv a green fringe of shore lino. “An island, ' she murmured. “Oh, it ' s wonderful!” Then she recalled the events of the day before and her gay mood darkened, like a cloud passing over the sun. As she wandered up on the deck, she walked to the rail. A spell seemed to hover between the azure sea and sky, an enchant¬ ment, mystic and beautiful, ft was the spell of the Oaribees. Then she turned as if in a dream and saw Hilly in his overalls washing the deck. So that old captain set him to do that! Slic’d see about that! The boy saw her troubled look and said, with a pleasant smile, “I’m having a won¬ derful time, so don’t bother the 4 Cap ' by any angry words over me.” Then she told him what she had heard Dclmontc tell her father the day before. She saw a sweep of anger pass over the boy’s face. Then he said, “Don’t you worry, Miss Drummond. The crew is with me and if Dclmontc means to get fnnnv, we’ll just fix him!” The rest of the day rolled along very slowly for Ardell, although the Coral slid like a dream through the enchanted sea. At last th e long day ended in a flaming tropic sunset. Higlit fell. A million stars came out. The red moon again lmng like a lantern in the purple sky. The next morning when Ardell awoke, she knew at once that they had reached the island. As Ardell gazed out at the island’s beauty, a thousand memories of her childhood stirrnl in her. She had raced along that white-sanded beach, swam in the blue water, and climbed those palm trees! How happy she had been! But 16 THE FOUR CORNERS now she could never be happy with Cap¬ tain Delmonte around all the time. When they reached shore in the boat, they met Sehor Fernando Cortez, the man¬ ager d’ the plantation. Ardell remembered the Spaniard, and her father greeted him and she was presented. “You have grown wonder hilly. Seiio- rit.i ! he purred, in his Latin lisp. “Thank you, Sehor, she replied. As they neared the plantation house, a stout figure came toward them, waving her arms and crying in Spanish. It was Sonora Teresa, the sister of Cortez. She was overwhelmed with joy to see her little Ardell. Willi everyone talking at once, they ap¬ proached the house, and there on the porch stood a slender, beautiful girl with blaek hair and dark eyes. Ardell remembered her. How she had grown in the last few years! It was Rosa, Teresa ' s daughter, Xow the party entered the house. Ar¬ dell and Rosa were left while Ardell ' s father, with Cortez and Delmonte, went to talk business. Then suddenly natives rushed up to the house and hurst in excitedly. Delmonte. understanding ihem. cried, ‘•My crew have mutinied ! It ' s that young one, Wright! Ardell stood there, saying. “Oh, it can ' t lie, lie wouldn ' t— v She didn ' t finish the sentence. The two men. Cortez and Delmonte. got the natives together and told them to shoot to kill. Delmonte left soon after. Scarcely had he taken his departure when Ardell saw Rosa slip out. Left alone sin 1 tried to put her mind on something else, lint she couldifr. Suddenly steps sounded outside and whispers were heard. “Someone wish to see you, Teresa beamed. Womleiing who it could he, Ardell i pent 1 llic door, and there stood Rillv. “Aidell, lie cried, “there ' s nothing to fear now. We have got the upper hand. “Rut how is it you come here like ibis? Seuora Teresa-— “She ' s with us! She knows Delmonte. You come back wiill me to the Coral. It s ihc only safe place for you. “Hut Daddy! 1 can ' t leave Daddy! “lie ' ll be all right. Delmonte won ' t harm him any. li ' s only you who is in danger. Ar that moment, Sonora Teresa entered excitedly. “Tin captain, he returned! ' ’ she cried. “You muss fly. Sehor! It iss not lime now to take Senorita. I guard her. Quick. Sehor! Already the stamp of feet was hoard on the porch. “All right. I ' ll go! he said. As he opi ned a small door leading to ihe kitchen, he called. “Adios, Ardell. Don ' t worry. U« member, it ' s coming out all right.” The day passed and night eaine at last. At the supper that night, Delmonte drank freely of a strong kind of drink made from the juice of the pineapple. He said, “They can ' t get away with anything like this.” Sitting there, Ardell saw Rosa rise to follow Delmonte out, and rising, she, too, followed, wondering if this might be a clue to the mystery. Delmonte was gone when sin reached the verandah, but Rosa still hovered there, a shadow in the night. She followed Rosa until she was some distance from the house. Then Rosa gave a whistle and out of the bushes slid a figure. It was Billy! “Sehor! whispered Rosa, £ T have news. It is the plan of the captain to attack the Coral tonight!

When the men were sure they would he safe, they climbed down from tin trees. Entering the house, they fnun 1 a few natives about and Sefiora Teresa calmly bathing her brother ' s wound which was not very serious. Drummond was talking with Cortez.

THE FOUR CORNERS 19 COMMON BIRDS OF FIELDS AND WOODLANDS Spring! “I know the song the bluebird is singing Out in the apple tree where he is swinging; Dear little blossoms, down under the snow. You must be weary of winter, I know. Hark! While I sing you a message of cheer. Summer is coming and springtime is here ” With this song the spring migration of birds starts. After March twenty-first, one begins to see in the fields red-winged black¬ birds and juncos. Also in the woodlands you see brown creepers, catbirds, and flickers. Many of these birds, which have spent I he winter in the south, migrate here in large numbers, some to stay with us in the summer, others to fly on farther north. A flock of slate-colored jnneos on the new-fallen snow is a very interesting sight on a cold winter ' s day. These birds come north with the first hard frost, and about May they leave for their northern breed¬ ing ground. In the pasture, where the trickling brook lazily finds its way, is an ideal place to find the red-winged blackbird. Usually about the first of March, the male birds arrive in flocks and may be heard singing gaily while the ground is still deeply cov¬ ered with snow. Early in April the black and white creepers appear running up and down the tree trunks looking for insects, upon which all warblers subsist. These birds build their nests in old stumps or mossy banks where bark, leaves, and hair make a downy nest for the four or five little birds. Another bird of the April migration is the bam swallow, tropical bird of the air. Up in tlie rafters of a bam or in the arch of an old bridge is an ideal place for this swallow to build his bracket-like nest of clay, mud, and straw. “Merrily swinging on brier and weed Near to the nest oE his little dame; Over the mountain-side or mead, Robert of Lincoln is telling his name: Bob-o-link, hob-o-link, Spink, spank, spink.” Thus William Cullen Bryant described (lie bobolink, which migrates to us in early May. These birds build their nests on the ground, and after midsummer the cares of I he family have so worn upon our dashing friend that his song is seldom heard. In August the bobolinks begin their journey southward, living mainly by night. Arriv¬ ing in the southern states, they become the sad-colored, low-voiced rice birds. Could there be a more tragic ending to the glori¬ ous note of the gay songster of the north? A Hasli of fire through the air; the Bal¬ timore oriole cannot be mistaken with its rich, high, whistled song. When the or¬ chards are in blossom, the male birds ar¬ rive in full plumage and song, and await the coining of the female birds that travel northward, more leisurely, in flocks. Of all the weavers that I know, The oriole is best; High upon the branches of the tree She hangs her cozy nest.” Among the thick foliage of the tallest tree, the mellow and pleasing song of the scarlet fanager may he occasionally heard after early May. These scarlet, tanagers, tlu male of which is probably the most conspicuous bird of North America, arrive in their summer coats of vivid scarlet and jet black. In addition to exhibiting fas¬ cinating qualities of color and song, the scarlet tanager is of great economic im¬ portance to us, as it is a diligent hunter of noxious insects, especially those found among tree tops. 20 THE FOUR CORNERS Sei temuer! “The golrienrod is yellow, The corn is turning brown. The trees in apple orchards With fruit are bending down.” in another month the fall migration will start and the birds of southern winter will leave us and migrate to the southern states. Although the grosbeaks, kingfishers, fiiek- eis, hohnlinks. and other summer residents leave hen , nuthatches, woodpeckers, and jjuncos appear to stay during the long winter. The cheery, irrepressible song of the chickadee may he heard through sunshine, snow, and tempest, as he swings around the dangling cones of the evergreens. It fairly overflows with good spirit, and is never more contagiously gay than in a snowstorm. What could be more glorious than God ' s wonderful gift to nature ( SPRING FEVER Spring had come, as it often does, and Bobbie Shaftoo was in love—madly, in¬ sanely in love and crazy with jealousy over the only girl in the world, little freckle- faced Mary Jones, who lived over the corner drug store and who sold sodas. One cool and balmy evening, with just the right amount of moon. Bobbie, who was a very romantic lover, went to quote poetry to Mary and incidentally propose to her. Marv received him coolly and as he started reciting soul fully, “My Mary ' s Eyes. she informed him that she was leaving for the city next day, never to re¬ turn. and that he might he so kind as to go home so that she might sav good-bve to her real sweetheart. Bobbie plunged along the street fully convinced that his heart was broken. How could she have 1k� pu so cruel when she knew how he loved her. Never, thought Bobbie, would be look at another girl. When he reached home, his deep sorrow had turned to anger, lie slammed doors and rattled windows, threw bis coat and hat on the floor and broke several phono¬ graph records. 11 is mother, hearing the noise, came in hastily, trying to quiet him. saying his sister had a friend visiting her from school and that he ought to meet her. Bobbie furtively straightened his tie. spit on his hair and was ready, lfe was introduced to Louise Marie and after hold¬ ing her fat little paw for about live min¬ utes, promptly fell in love again. Louise Marie, who was a shy little thing, never had such a violent lover before. She was rushed here and there, danced about and compelled to listen to such poetry as she never supposed existed, for. of course, when Bobbie was in love, lie was like any man. After a month of ardent wooing. Bobbie proposed. But Louise Marie, it seems, was to 1 m married the next month and her sweetheart was coming the next day to take her home. The next day Bobbie went to the train with her. He could hardly bear to let his la-loved go out of his life forever, but if lie must he would bear it like a man. In his heart he felt that he never would recover. The train puffed in and Bobbie, his eyes puffed out from weeping, put Louise on the train and turned away. He could not trust himself to look at her again, so he resolutely fixed his eyes on the ground ahead of him. He remained this way for alxiut five minutes before he realized that he was looking at the daintiest pair of ankles that he had ever seen. Slowly lie let his eyes open and then he gasped aloud and rushed to ask the station master where that charming young lady from the train was staying. A. 1 M., ' 81. THE FOUR CORNERS 21 SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE Jim Collins snt in his office chair smok¬ ing a cigarette when he hoard a newsboy cry, ‘ ' The Tinted States has entered the war! All about the war! Extra! We have entered the war! Jim jumped up and looked out of the office window and called to a newspaper hoy below to come up with a paper. After Jim bought his paper, he began to read about flic Tinted States’ en¬ tering’ the war. A week later his friends wore enlisting to go and help America. Jim did not want to go because he was afraid at first, hut his friends had enlisted and left Jim, so at last he decided to enlist and join them. Two months later Jim was in perfect condition, and was a big, healfby-looking young man. At last, the day came for his division to sail. It was in November, 1017, The I T . S. S. Leviathan took his division over to France. It took nine days for them to cross the Atlantic. They landed in Eng¬ land, where they had to train some move. This was not n very easy job, for every morning he had to lie up at live o’clock and start helping to get breakfast. After breakfast, they would march for five miles. When they eamc back they would have dinner, and then start drilling. Two weeks later Jim’s division received orders for ten men to be sent to an air field outside of a little French town just be¬ hind the lines. Jim was one of the ton who left at once for France. He did not arrive at the air field until a week later. These men were wanted for aviators, as they had lost so many they had to send for more. At first Jim was used as a mechanic, but at last he had a chance to become an aviator and sail in the clouds behind the joy-stick of a Spad. He was happy to think lie could pilot an airplane, hut how long would he be able to do it ? He kept thinking of that sometimes until it would make him almost sick. The first time came for Jim to go with the A flight, on the Dawn Patrol. At five- thirty the squadron started for ITunland, where they found it as hot ns ever; they crossed the lines. Now they were in Gorman territory looking for trouble and they found it, plenty of it. There were seven Spads in the A flight. They found six Fokkcrs floating along down below them. The flight commander gave the sig¬ nal and away they went in a long, steep dive for the Roches. Jim was terribly frightened, hut lie followed the others, ready to pick a fight with the Germans— and they got the fight. The Germans saw them coining, and they spread out ready for battle. Jim spread away from the others and picked his man. Jim’s man was the Roches’ flight commander. The sky was like a hornet’s nest. The roar of motors and the cracking of machine guns was deafening. Jim started a fight with the German flight commander. They surely did have a fight. Jim’s plane was shot to pieces quite hadlv now, but be hung on. All at once Jim saw the flight commander of the Germans in the gun sights. He pulled the triggers. He got him! The German went on his death parade. After the fight Jim looked for the others, hut, ho could not find them. He had drifted away from them, so he started homo. On his way he saw a bombing plane headed for his air field. Away Jim went just as fast as his Spad would carry him, headed for the bomber. Could he reach it ? He did not know, hut he could try. Jim 22 THE FOUR CORXERS was catching up with it all the time. At last lie was only a mile from it, now a half-mile, now a quarter-mile! Now they were over the air field, fighting each other like dogs! Jim fought hard and took ter¬ rible chances. He would dive under and u] into the bottom of the bomber, dim was in a dive, this time going strong, when he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. He knew at once he had been hit. That hoy wouldn ' t give up the ship for that. He was too ambitious to stop now, because his “buddies” were below on the field watch¬ ing his actions. dim at last got the pilot of the bomber in his sights. He pulled the triggers; the bomber burst into flames and started for a long, long spin to earth. d iin was weak from loss of blood. He started at once in a long dive for the air field. He levelled off for a landing when everything went black. When be awoke he was in a hospital at the rear of the lines — somewhere in France. G. E. S., ’33.

Mr. Bcssey, resumed the ceaohing of the hoys ' team this year. Only two letter men were left from last year ' s train, namely, Vrqvihart, ? 30, and Snow. ' 31. As no captain was elected hy last year ' s letur men, rnpihart and Snow have alternated as captain throughout the year. The regular line-up for most of our games has been Snow, 7 3J, right forward; Lyons. ' 32. left forward ; Ferguson. ' 30, ecu ter; Bice. ' 32. right guaul, and l T rqu- harr. ' 3d, left guard. The first-string sub¬ stitutes have been 1 Wring, ' 30, Craig. ? 32, LihLy, 3(1, and Douglas, ' 31. The most promising of our second-string material have been Pooler, ' 31, Clark, ‘32, Jensen, ' 32, and Millikcn, ' 33. Although we have won all six allies which we have played on our own floor this year, ve t we cannot be classed as a “home team, as we have played ten games on foreign floors, winning seven of these. Seaihoio has handed every team that it has played against this year at least one defeat. Some of our most thrilling games were dm to the fact that we came from behind in si ven of these games, winning out by a strong fourth-period attack, twice winning out in overtime periods. In the Xtmulish game, after being on the small end of a H-(� score at the half, we tied flic game ; t ihe (lid of the fourth quarter at 22 all, and Snow shot the winning basket in a thrilling ihrce-ininnte overtime period. In the (Srctlv game, our opponents held a 12-7 had at the half. Our team held them seoieless in the last half, winning out 23-J2.- fn the Oxford game. Ferguson shut a basket in the last twenty seconds uf play, giving ns a 20-27 victory. The most thrill¬ ing finish was in the finals of the Lewiston Tourney, when we made up an eight-point had from South Paris High in the last live minutes of regular play and won out hy o:ie point, only after two hretic over¬ time periods had been played. At the (nd of ihc regular playing sea¬ son. we were tied with Windham High for the championship. The play-oil was held hi the Portland Athletic Hub. Before a record crowd, we were debated ISMd. However, we atoned for this defeat by winning the Lewiston Small Sehools Tour¬ ney later in the same week, defeating Wells High, Oxford High and South Paris High in successive games. JTrquhart was chosen as nil-tournament guard in the line-up picked by tHe Lncist- ton Journal, and Snow was included as forward in the choice of the Lnrisfon Sun. Snow was also voted the second most val¬ uable player in the entire tournament by a committee of coaches and newspaper men chosen for this purpose.

As we did not lose a single plnver from last year ' s team, wc have had practically the same line-up as then, flic veteran players being Captain Hilda Harmon, 30, Ex-Captain Esther .Nielsen, 7 30, Olive Jel- lerson. ’30, Helen Scamman, ’31, Gertrude DeCoste, 31. Marguerite Shaw, ’31, and Barbara Harmon, ? 3l. The substitutes have been Daginar Nielsen, 3J, Elizabeth Shaw, 31, Evelyn (’handler, ’30, Hope Pergatto, ? 31, Lorcna MacMillan, ’32. The second team has consisted of ten Freshmen who have attended practice throughout the year. Those who will prob¬ ably make the first squad next year are Greta Moulton, Helen Olesen, Annie Fer¬ guson, Eva Steevcs and Florence Pay. Captain-elect Scainmnn and “South- pa w v DcCostc will again be in the forward positions next year, as will M. Shaw at center and B. Hannon at guard, so the prospects for a good team then arc bright. H. Hannon will he sorely missed, as no player has excelled her in the center area this year. E. Nielsen will be lost at guard. She has the unusual distinction of having played in every game during her four years of high school. Olive Jcllerson also graduates. She has starred in every posi¬ tion on the team, being equally good in them all. Our record this year is one of the best in the history of the school, with twelve victories, two defeats and one tie. Wind¬ ham High and Gorham High were the only teams to defeat, us, and wc defeated Wind¬ ham 23-11 on our floor and held Gorham to a 24-2-1 tic on their playing surface.
