Senior H istory Game of '26 Midsters Told in Four Quarters Great team crashes to victory with score of 65 members to OI The Blue and Gold Aggregation of S. H. S. won fame and recognition in a smashing mid-term victory on January 28, 1926. The game was fought against towering obstacles, but the Hnever-say-die spirit brought the colors flying through the fray. Much praise and credit belong to Coaches Post, Osborn, Ward, and McGlothlin. 1922-1923 A big crowd turned out for first practice on the S. H. S. gridiron. Con- sternation reigned among faculty coaches and varsity players when the green mob overflowed the field. Much ignorance and awkwardness were displayed in the first workouts, but the mass was finally reduced to some order. Three men showed the makings of great players in this first round: Wallace Moore, Clarence Bush and Mitchell Oliver. Jack Reid starred in dramatic workshop. 1923-1924 Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here! The cheerful fellow informed everybody that '26 was on hand for grid practice of the second quarter. After a general scrimmage one William Ma- haffey emerged before the public eye. Paula Weinstein and Hubert Miller scored in debating and art, respectively, and Clarence Bush rose in basketball as well as football. 1924-1925 Full-fledged substitutes were the members of the Blue and Gold team, rarin' to go at the beginning of the third season. Ted Clark, Sue Drouin, Paula Weinstein, Bernyce Ingersoll, Mitchell Oliver landed on the Hstudent controls : Janice Dixon, Edward Cottle, Mitchell Oliver, Nika O'Connell, and William Striplin covered ground in journalism. At the end of this season the dope was all in favor of '26. 1925-1926 Come on, Gang! The war cry sounded when sixty-five members of the Blue and Gold team entered upon their last quarter. After a rousing rally, Clarnce Bush was chosen captain, but when he decided that he was trying to play too many positions, Hubert Miller was prevailed upon to call signals. Paula Weinstein was assist- ant-captain: Janice Dixon, record-keeper: Ted Clark, fee-taker. As yell lead- ers, Ted Clark and Jack Reid roused big enthusiasm in the student body. The team set as its goal the inauguration of complete mid-term activities, and began its smashing drive for victory. Effective tackles brought from the Executive Committee consent to back the mid-term annual. Ground was gained with other activities, but the big score was made with a beautifully executed play, lt Pays to Advertise. Twenty-six reached its goal and won its victory on a memorable day in January and set itself apart as a wonder team, a pioneer team, a team to inspire all middites of the future. Page Eff Nl
