Moreover, the knights must be in good physical condition if they wish to succeed in any of their undertakings. The faithful members of these de- partments have contributed all that is within their power to help the knights in these respects. No realm can be complete and no cavalier can be happy without music and art. Mrs. Hazel Younkman taught art, and Mr. F. E. Parks taught music. Mr. Parks tirelessly trained the members of the Glee Clubs for the opera, the Eisteddfod, and for many interesting musical programs in mass meetings. The physical training of the cavaliers was directed by Miss Josephine Reed for the girls, and by Mr. Charles Gaskins for the boys. In addition. Miss Reed taught physiology. Miss Mary Conrath, head of the Foreign Language Department and senior supervisor, taught Latin and Spanish. Miss Helen Shanahan also taught Latin, and Miss Helen Baker, French. Those who taught foreign languages endeavored to vary the monotony of the study and to show the practical application of the courses. The peers of these departments, as well as of all the departments, have been invaluable to our realm in training the Cavaliers in both book lore and extra- curricular activities. ajgarjgatieajgageajjgajgkaggga

Loyal Cavaliers HE most worthy subjects of the Ruler of the Realm are a select group known as the seniors. or the loyal cavaliers. In September. 1924, these gallants started out to win the favor of their monarch. They entered every activity open to them in their kingdom and many of their number gained special notice. Early this year a meeting was held for the purpose of electing oilicers. Ruth Keller was chosen president: Revere Koogler, vice president: Ralph Carr, secretary: Robert Jewell, treasurer: and Nace Lutman. reporter. The campaign for selling tickets for the Lyceum Course was managed by the seniors under the supervision of Miss Mary Conrath and Miss Vergie Rusher. The loyal cavaliers have displayed their talent at different times in music nd dramatics. In the annual production of the Ye Merrie Players, The Ghost Bird, seven seniors took part: Helen Morey, Cecile Jones, Dorothy Whet- stone, John Wilson, Nace Lutman, Wilbur Rankin and Robert Jewell. In the Pirates of Penzance, a light opera, given by the two Glee Clubs, Evelyn Iness and Ruth Keller took leading parts while the choruses were made up largely of seniors. The loyal cavaliers again brought honors to their realm at the Eisteddfod. Those taking part were Ruth Keller. Darrel Bryan, Evelyn Eess Mary Woodward, Mildred Nesbitt and Lucile Shepherd. Outside activities did not hold Iirst place in the minds of the seniors. Many of them strove for and attained a high degree of scholarship. Those having an average of one at any time during the year were Ruth Keller, Edwin Doyle, Edith Cessna, Charlotte Hinegardner. Lucile Shepherd and John Ohler. Four loyal Cavaliers went out for debate this year. They were Mary Ireland, Lucille Walborn, Herbert Boate, and Norman Carnes. The Class of '28 has been very prominent in the field of athletics. The football letter men from the class were Don Abrams, Virgil Bowersock, Lorenz Bowers, Ralph Carr, Max Gilmore, Paul Hargrove and Max Youngs. The basketball letter men were Loy Keller, Paul Hargrove, Lorenz Bowers, Max Gilmore, Donald Abrams, and Ross Deniston. Never before in the history of the realm have the girls stepped into the limelight in athletics as they did during the past year. The senior girls were well represented on the all-star Yale-Princeton teams. They were Leora Mae Reese, Cecile Jones, Helen Morey, Frances Stevenson, Dorothy Whetstone. captain, and Dorothy Stover. Girls receiving numerals were Madeline Hutchi- son Helen Morey, Maude Durnbaugh. Cecile Jones, Leora Mae Reese, Dorothy Stover, Imogene Rex, Frances Stevenson and Dorothy Whetstone. The staff, which edits the weekly news of the realm, was made up almost entirely of seniors. They were Edwin Doyle, general manager: Mary Ireland, managing editor: Alice Gsell. editor-in-chief: Florence Scullen, assistant: Meriam Lusk, filing editor. Reporters and special writers were Edith Cessna. Howard Byerly and Nace Lutman. Through the efforts of eight of the loyal cavaliers, with the assistance of a few juniors, the annual Pot o' Gold was edited. They were Bernard Sterrett. editor-in-chief: John Wilson, business manager: Grace Kelly. literary editor: Paul Hargrove and Leora Mae Reese, athletic editors: Wilbur Rankin, advertis- ing manager and John Ohler, photographer. The climax of social life of the loyal cavaliers was the Prom held in June. A..
