FRESHMAN HISTORY September 6. 1927. thirty-seven of us entered the temple of learning of Troy High School to enroll as freshmen. We were all very happy to enter this new phase of , life, ready to start our new tasks. We have had much pleasure along our path of learning, during the whole year. We are proud to think we have started our freshman year with several of our members participating in outside sports and activities. We are proud to have some of the excellent players of Troy's basketball team in our class. Four members of the track team are freshmen and the debating team is also represented. Congressman T. A. Jenkins offered cash prizes to the 1927 eighth grade graduates of Athens county, now freshmen, for writing the best letters describing the Eighth Grade Commencement Exercises last summer. The first prize was won by one of our freshman members, two others tying for second place. We started the year with thirty-seven freshmen or “freshies.'' as we were called, and we hope that all will resume their places next year as Sophomores. Some, of course, will realize how difficult the work is and will probably stop by quituation. Our class increased its number the first semester by the addition of Roselene Hollingsworth, but was soon diminished by the withdrawal of Delpha Chutes, Floyd Hawk, and Charles Shields. The last semester we added Virginia Tanthory to our enrollment, making us thirty-five in number. Our class was the largest ever to enter Troy High, and we hope to see a large class next year. At our class organization meeting early in the year we elected the following officers: President. Leo Baker; Vice President, Charles Smith: Secretary, Helen Brander-berry: Treasurer. Betty Yagala. Adviser. Mr- Bane. Class Flower. American Beauty Rose. Class Colors.

Several came and went, but at the second semester we finally settled down to our Faithful Nineteen.” We found many difficulties to face on our road, which was sometimes rough, but our nineteen were still with us when we arrived at the first milestone. This year we enrolled as Sophomores. We soon found that three of our number were missing—Ethel Morgan. Winifred Russell, and Helen Brafford. Madge Grewey, Lester Doan, and John Runion were enrolled as Sophomores for the year: this brought the number back to what it originally was. Our class had a representative in both debating and the Prince of Peace Contest. Hazel Place represented the Coolville Congregational Church in the Athens countv Prince of Peace Contest, taking ninth place. She was also our second speaker of the negative side of the debating team. We. therefore, feel that one of our nineteen has already accomplished much and we hope that before our four years have come to a close, many more will have achieved something truly worthy.

S. as Freshmen under the leadership of Prof. Paynter. During the year one member left us to attend school at Vincent, leaving our class the Faithful Thirty-five.” When we came back as Sophomores in 1927 some had fallen by the wayside; some thought they had enough knowledge to work and others thought housework better than school, so our class number was reduced; however, enough joined us to make our number “Faithful Thirty-six. As Sophomores we had a new building and a new leader. Miss Evans, and we made much progress. In September. 1928, we came back as Juniors with still more gone from our class. Margaret Aldridge and Genevieve Nuzam found married life more attractive than school, and three, whose names are omitted, failed to complete the required work last year and are enrolled as Sophomores again this year. We were then known as the Common Twenty-nine. Perie Stout was obliged to leave our class to care for her ill mother. We are now known as the Common Twenty-nine. Our class is represented in basketball, debating, orchestra, and chorus. Of the four local contestants in the Prince of Piece Declamation Contest, one was from our class, Clarice Root, winning one medal- With the inspiration and advice given us this year by all the faculty members, the Common Twenty-eight are still progressing and hope to reach next year what is known a � —Graduation.

E. Paynter as leader. Perhaps due to their not realizing that the Freshman year is always the most difficult, several members of our class failed to appear when we enrolled as Sophomores in 1925. However, several new pupils decided to join us. bringing our number up to twenty-five. On September 20, 1926 twenty-three of us began our Junior year in the new Troy Township School building, with a new leader. Miss Evans. Towards the end of the term, Elizabeth Bond, who had left us in our Freshman year, rejoined us. During the year members of our class took an active part in oratorical contests, debating, and athletics. Fern Metz, entering the Prince of Peace Contest, took first place among the thirteen contestants of Athens County, winning a silver medal and the honor of representing Athens County in the Tenth Congressional District Contest held at Oak Hill. At the Athens County Oratorical Contest Ralph Duffield took second place in the humorous readings, winning a silver medal. Early in September. 1927, twenty-two of us came back to complete our last year of High School work under the guidance of our new leader. Mr. C. A. Gillilan. Our Senior year has been as successful as were the other three years of our High School life Again we had the honor of claiming the winner of the Athens County Prince of Peace Contest as a member of our class! Samuel Baker won the silver medal and represented Athens County in the Congressional District Contest held at Hamden. Ohio. We of the Senior class also take pride in the fact that several of the members of Troy High's excellent basketball team are from our class. Near the end of our last year at Troy High, we feel that our four years spent here have been worth while—that we have learned many lessons, not only from our text books, but from other sources as well. We hope that all of the members of our Senior class, soon to start out into a new world of experience, will be winners in life—just as part of them were winners here at Troy High School.

As we come to the end of our journey That has lasted for four long years, We look back o'er the days spent at Troy High Filled with joy and with sorrow and tears. We feel that our journey together Has done much to broaden our lives. And to teach us that honor and glory Come surely to him who strives. When we think of the hours we have wasted, Of the many mistakes Ve have made; When we think of the trials that are coming It is then that our hearts are afraid. But those who have gone on before us Have blazed well the pathway of life; And we know that we must not falter • Because of its hardships and strife. The thought of those years spent at Troy High Shall come back to us day by day. And inspire us with longing to conquer Every obstacle placed in our way. We know there are many temptations. Assailing the pathway of man, But we know that we can resist them. If we only think that we can. Now our journey together has ended. And. iong though our parting may be, We give to our teachers and schoolmates Our friendship and our loyalty. And for thee, dear old Troy High School, We pledge to be true to your name To be brave, to be pure, to be loyal. To place honor yet higher than fame. May we learn our share of life's lessons; May we meet each defeat with a smile! Dear old Troy, each moment of sadness With memories of thee we'll beguile. Though our school days with thee have now ended, And each person must go on his way. Yet our friendship will live on forever In the memories of each day. • SENIOR POEM page sixteen 1928 THE THALIA IIIMMIIHinillllllllMlimmillHIIMIIIIIIMIMIIHIIIIIIIIIMIIIIHIIIIHIIHIIIIIIIIIHItUmilHMHIIIIMIIII IIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIimillllllllllllHIlHlimilllMIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIMIIMIIIItItllMllimilllllllllltItllllllltlllllllimillllHIIIIIMUIIHIt SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Instead of riding the street car to my work as secretary in a large New York transpor tation firm. I decided to walk; as it was an hour before I had to go to work. I wanted to see the different kinds of people here in New York and started through the Chinese section. Along the streets were such curious things and funny writings. Glancing at one of the signs above a door 1 found, after translating it. to be Oriental Hocus Pocus by Ching Ling Foo. Thinking back to my high school days I wondered what had become of the Senior Class of '28 and if their ambitions had all been filled. I stepped inside and such a funny looking room. A Chinaman was sitting in front of a large box of sand and holding a queer looking stick in his hand. I asked him to tell me what had become of the Senior Class of '28 and what they were doing. He started to move the stick slowly over the sand and behold! Our class President, and Mary Davis appeared. They were bending over large books and taking knowledge from them. They had become great teachers at Ohio University and were teaching about the inhabitants of the moon. The vision faded and then a large group of people appeared carrying musical instruments. Matching ahead of them was the director. Upon looking more closely I saw that it was Ralph Duffield. He had become director of the U. S. Marine Band. The next form appeared in the shape of Fern Metz. She seemed greatly excited but. by observing her for a moment. I saw that she was a lecturer and was holding the people in awe by the eloquence of her speech. The stick moved again and Genevieve Wildman appeared feeding a large flock of chickens. She seemed very happy as a fanners wife- I next saw Samuel Baker and he was coaching basketball while studying to become a Smith Hughes teacher. A rather large lady come in view and it proved to be Velma Johnson. Her eye? were cast upward as if she were thinking of another poem to write. She is known the world over for her poems. The next vision seemed to be nothing but waves but soon a boat was seen in the distance. The captain on board was giving orders and who should it be but Paul Davis. Near the side of the boat stood a large man who didn’t seem to be enjoying the trip verv much. Wondering who it was, I looked again and saw that it was Robert Smith. He was Ambassador to France and was just returning home. The vision disappeared and the stick was moved again. Hollywood appeared and whom should I see but Gladyce Sheets as one of the main actresses. Hollywood disappeared and I saw a Chatauqua taking place in a large city- A solo was being sung and whom should it be but Mildred Runion. I next saw a roadster going past and looking I saw Celia Kinnen. She was going to meet her husband who was away working. page seventeen THE THALIA 19 2 8 iiiiiniiiiiiuiiiiiiisiiiiiiiiiiiHHiuiiimiiiiiMiiiimimumimiiiiiiiMiiiiiatiiiiiiMiiiiiiMiiimiimii iiiimmmmimiiiiiiiiitiiiimiiiimiHiiiiiiiiiiiiimHiiiiiiiiiiiiminiHiiiiiimitiiiiiiiiiiMiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiMMiii The stick was moved up and down instead of across the sand and an aeroplane was seen to alight on the ground. The pilot jumped out—It was Ruth Dye. In another seat sat Mildred Newland. She was a famous basketball star and was going to Chicago to play a game against the Wild, Cats of New York. The vision slowly faded and a broadcasting station appeared. A man was announcing. I was much surprised to know that it was Harold Conklin. A large fruit farm appeared and in the distance I saw a man spraying the trees. It was Charles Booth. The vision changed and a large building was seen. On one of the doors written in gold letters was, “Francis Russell, Criminal Lawyer . He was seated at his desk dictating a letter to his Private Secretary, Lucy Coleman. The stick was moved slowly but nothing appeared. Finally I beheld Hazel Conley. She was studying medicine over in Europe. Ching Ling Foo moved the stick but no more visions appeared. He then said that was all that graduated. 1 paid him my money and went on my way rejoicing over the good fortune of my class mates. CLASS WILL We the Senior Class of 1928 with four long years of hard work behind us deem it necessary to make our last will and testimony, in the presence of our teachers, feeling sure they will help us to carry out our plans for the future. Leaving to the students following our foot steps such things as we have found to be useful in our own journey. To the Juniors we leave the ability of setting a good example to the younger students, and taking the responsibility of the graduating Class of ’29. To the Sophomores we leave the custom we have acquired to encounter all difficulties with a smile and the ability of having good lessons.

The personal bequeaths are as follows: Velma Johnson bequeaths her poetic ability to Lester Doan. Sam Baker bequeaths his curly hair to Hazel Justice. Fr. jicis Russell bequeaths his well manicured finger nails to Ray Dunfee. Mildred Newland bequeaths her athletic ability to Mildred Bond- Mary Davis bequeaths her ability to have good lessons to Dale Gibbs. Fern Metz bequeaths her ability to sing to Harry Booth.

To the Faculty who so kindly helped us over our difficulties of school life we leave our sincere thanks and appreciation. Lastly to our friends let us give, for the many favors shown us as we have been traveling along the road of knowledge for the last four long years, hearty thanks. In witness whereof, hereunto set our hand and seal, this third day of May, in the yeat of our Lord 1928. page eighteen Signed— page nineteen HOROSCOPE Name Nickname By-word Failing Arrena McDaniel Renie It's hard to tell Late hours Celia Kinnen Wheelie Yes Boy!

VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT A vocational agriculture department was added to the curriculum this year—The department is housed in a separate building specially remodeled for the department. It has two class rooms and a full basement. The basement will be used for farm machinery work. Twenty-three boys were enrolled in this department this year. The subjects offered were Animal Husbandry, Farm Crops, and Farm Shop. Each boy enrolled must have a supervised farm project related to the subject studied. The projects in operation are baby chick rearing, poultry management, strawberries, corn, swine management, dairy record of production, and management of an orchard. The department’s aim is to give a practical as well as a scientific training in Agriculture. The boys have pruned orchards, dosed sheep for stomach worms and won twelfth place as an apple judging team during Farmers week at Columbus. Local, state and federal funds are used to maintain the department. page twenty-one THE THALIA 19 2 8 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIWIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIIIHIIMIIHIIIIIItIMIIIIHIHIIHHIHIIIItlllll llinilllllMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIHIIIHHimillHIIIMIHIIMIIMIIIHnimiMIIMIHIIMIIMIMIHMIlllllllltMlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIUIIII DOMESTIC SCIENCE CLASS GIRLS ATHLETIC GROUP page twenty-two 1 9 2 8 THE THALIA ....mum.mi.„„„„„......... 1.

April 19. 1928 No. 22 Our School Paper “The Orange and Black , official school paper of Troy High, first came to light early in November 1927. Principal C. A. Gillilan conceived the idea of purchasing a duplicating machine somewhat on the nature of the well-known Mimeograph , to be used in the print ing. A machine known as the Letter-graph was finally chosen, at a cost of only $35. A staff was selected by the English de partment from the student body with Velma Johnson as Editor-in-Chief. Gladyce Sheets and Hazel Conley. Associate Editor, and Mildred Runnion as Business Manager, taking its name from the school colors. Mr. Morrison, head of the English de partment. served voluntarily as Faculty Advisor and Censor of the publication during the first semester, and was elected to that position by the student body at the beginning of the second semester. It has been his duty, in that capacity, to see to it that news material truly reflecting the spirit and life of the school, be given to the public- Each week he has had to devote much time and energy to seeing to it that the reporters do their work as as signed, and that enough material be secured to fill the space in the paper. Not a single week's issue has missed publication or distribution because of lack o preparation of the copy . Mr. Gillilan. who was elected Faculty Business Manager for trie second semester, has had charge of furnishing the material supplies, such as ink. paper, and stencils, and has taken care of the financial affairs of the publication. As Editor-in-Chief for the entire school year. Velma Johnson has been subjected to all the trials and tribulations imaginable that might come up. from the running down” of tardy staff members to the irate disapproving frowns of the Faculty Censor, as he slashes” through the copy or harangues for more material and more speed . Those who occupied various positions on the staff for either or both semesters were as follows: Editor-in-Chief, Velma Johnson: Associate Editors. Gladyce Sheets. Hazel Conley, and Clarice Root; Athletic Editors. Sam Baker and Harold McBride: Faculty Censor Mr. A. R. Morrison: Business Managers Mr. Gillilan and Mildred Runnion: Assistant Business Manager.

DEBATE “Resolved, That the Direct Primary system of nominating candidates for public office in the United States should be abolished. This was the question that Troy High's forensic aspirants were called upon to debate against other high schools of Athens County this year. Perhaps due to the highly technical political nature of the question, many were somewhat relucant to attempt its discussion, but on the first date set for study at the Carnegie Library, Athens, about fourteen students responded. This encouraged Mr. Morrison to begin planning for two complete teams for both affirmative and negative sides of the question. Then came an epidemic of measles which, coupled with perhaps somewhat too intense interest in other activities, forestalled, the plan and seriously interfered with the organization of single complete teams for both sides of the question. The personnel of the teams as finally selected, was as follows: Affirmative:— Betty Yagala, Alyce Chevalier, Samuel Baker and Kenneth Gillilan (alternate). Negative:—Mildred Newland. Hazel Place. Jean Nestor, and Harold McBride (alternate). Troy High's affirmative team, debating at home, won the decision over Canaanville; and the negative team, debating against Amesville. at that place, was decided against, despite the excellent rebuttals and the judge's commendation of the excellent stage “presence of its members. page twenty-four 1928 THE THALIA .. Ul “... I.am.....iiu.mmmm... mmmmm I lie I roy girls, unfortunately, met with little success in piling up victories to their credit this school year. They made an excellent showing in the opening game of the season and emerged victorious in their second contest. But luck (or something) seems to have deserted them there: for they were unable to add any further victories to their record. f he first games were played according to boys' rules: then came orders to the effect that all girls games on the county schedule be played according to girls’ rules, which were new and difficult to learn. Next came an epidemic of measles, breaking up the regular team for several weeks. Although most often losers, the Troy girls were never quitters. Always, like true Trojans, they fought through with all their strength, trying to narrow the margin of defeat, even when victory did seem impossible. The girls’ games were always the preliminary games of the evening ’. and although nearly always defeated themselves, the 1 roy girls were right on the spot, lustily cheering the boys on to victory.

A week or two after the beginning of the school year the high school principals and basketball coaches of Athens County met and arranged schedules of games for the year. On Troy's schedule were eleven games. Coach Gillilan's boys were victorious in all of these, but were defeated by Albany in a close 32 to 30 contest that had not been included in the county schedule. The Trojans'', as these battling courageous fellows came to be called, fought their way through to the finals in the Athens County Class-B tournament, but were defeated there. As runners-up in the County Tournament, they were entitled to enter the Southeastern Ohio District Tournament at Athens. Here they were defeated in the preliminary game, only by the very close margin of 26 to 25 at the hands of Rio Grande High School. page ttventy-six 1 9 2 8 THE THALIA IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMIIIillllllHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIliillllilllllllllllllllllllllllllHIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIMIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIHIIIMIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIf THE BASKETBALL SQUAD Right Forward—Leo BAKER- Leo was an excellent shot and proved himself a consistent player throughout the season.

EDUCATION IS A MAGNET It cannot be denied that the educated person is in many ways better 1 equipped to earn money and to enjoy life than is the uneducated. Any sort of accomplishment worth while requires mental alertness | and breadth of vision—qualities largely developed through training. 1 A keen mind comprehends instantly what the untrained mind cannot | understand at all. I No matter what an education may cost, it is worth the price, and the young person who isn’t willing to work, to struggle, and to deny himself some of the transient pleasures of life in order to secure an educa-I tion is indeed without vision. Our classes and study requirements for the summer are precisely | the same as they are for the remainder of the year, and we maintain | the same high standards of conduct, efficiency, and advancement.

Your splendid education will | help you socially, but a business training will insure your financial sue- | cess if put to the proper use. Your High School education alone will | not prepare you for the better opportunities in the business world. It is a fine thing to be a High School graduate. Such a training j forms an excellent foundation upon which to build a successful future; 1 but before you start out in life, do not fail to get a business training, f Your success will be much more certain; you will be able to do practical | things in a successful way from the very beginning; and it will speed | you away along the Highway of Success much more rapidly than is pos- | sible without it. We get a great many calls for young men and women throughout | the year, and as a result, we have no worthy graduate out of employ- | | ment. Our training has proved to be a most valuable asset to possess. | | This school has been in existence for more than forty years and has | I hundreds of successful graduates throughout the United States. Like | all other schools in Ohio, it has met the requirements which are much 1 1 higher than in many neighboring states. Why not attend this splendid school this year? Why not attend | 1 summer school? New classes will be formed each Monday morning | during the month of June, and you will not be obliged to continue the | the work in the fall if you decide you do not want a business training. | | We will give you the benefit of the doubt.

Bill Westcrvelt—I want some tires? Salesman—Baloon Tires? Bill—No, automobile tires. SHE DIDN’T TELL She told me you told her that secret I told you not to tell her.” “Why, I was particular to tell her not to tell you.” Well. I told her I wouldn't tell you she told me, so don't tell her I did-” Jane, asked Miss Apger, have you given the tadpoles fresh water? No. they haven’t finished what I gave them yesterday. A visiting high school basketball team was being entertained at the training table of the school whose team they were to play the next day. Needless to say. both groups of players were trying to impress each other. A waiter went down the line asking the boys how they liked their meat done. The first man was on the home team. He answered, bring me rare meat. The next boy was also on the home team and he called for red. rare meat. The third upheld his fellows by demanding rich, red, rare meat. Fourth in line was a member of the visiting team. He paused for a moment while the eyes of both teams rested anxiously upon him, and then said in a disgusted tone of voice, “Drive in your cow and I'll cut off my own slice.” Harold was walking down the lane with Velma. A cow and a calf beside the fence were rubbing noses in bovine affection. Look, said Harold. Isn’t it wonderful? It makes me feel like doing just the same thing. Go head if you want to said Velma, the cow belongs to father. Gladycc Sheets—Why did you break your engagement with that school teacher? Peggy Newland—I didn't show up one night and he wanted me to bsing a written excuse signed by my mother. Lucy Baker (Meeting Paul at 8:45) I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Paul Davis—Oh. that’s alright. I’ve just been here about five minutes. Lucy—Oh. you brute! You promised to be here at eight. Francis Russell—Charles tried out for cheer leader- Kenneth Gillilan—Did he go over big? Francis—No, he went over backwards. Mr. Morrison—Give me a sentence containing the word tennis. Clifton Ward—Tennis five times two. y E ■ t+ P -r A t � • Jrsfcx - VSX-------- • ’
