Mecca Athletic Calendar One of the most appreciated conveniences of the new Mecca Central School is the ample gymnasium. Though, it is not fully equipped with necessary apparatus to make its utility complete, it affords the school a playing floor ,upon which we are proud to meet our opponents. In return for the new advantages, the student body has participated whole-heartedly in all possible events, both intra and extra mural. School spirit and sportmanship have been the primary aim of all our athletic partieipations. As far as possible, we have encouraged a variety of relationships with other schools for the purpose of student association rather than victory as a sole aim. .

i Mineral Ridge I The History of Mineral Ridge High School The iirst class to graduate from the Mineral Ridge High School wa in 1881. Professor L. L. Campbell was the superintendent at that time. He planned the outline of a course of studies necesary for a student to graduate from the highkschool at that period. .ss ., . Classes graduated from this date, although not annually, unifil 1917, when the charter was revoked. Again a charter was given to the Mineral Ridge High School in the fall of 1927, making it a iirst class high school. A class of sixteen graduated in 1928, as the first since A the preceding charter had been re- voked. In this year of 1929 a class of eight will graduate. Vfe have been striving toward suc- cess with the help of our teachers and the superintendent, Mr. C. O. Taylor. We hope that :vve have succeeded in making the preceding graduates, even those of 48 years ago, proud that they laid the foundation for our education and success. GLADYS WHITE.
