T. H. S FOREWORD This book is the yearly evolution of the Senior Class of the Waverly Township High School, containing a history of the year and as much of its spirit as the staff can portray. The Wave is not merely the product of the Senior Class. Believing that The Wave really represents the entire school, several underolassnaen have assisted in the editing of this volume. May The VVave serve to forward the ideals of the school. 4 The Wave W. T. H. S To Miss Ethel Allen, who has been our friend, teacher and counselor these four years, We dedicate this edition of The Wave. l 5 The Wave W. T. H. S. WAVERLY TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL Dr. joseph R. Harker, President of Illinois Woman's College, organized the VVaverly High School in l882 and graduated the first class in l884. Until 1896 the course of study comprised only three years' Work. Since that time four years' course, with a minimum of sixteen units for graduation, has been offered. In l9l5 a Township High School district was organized and in September 1916 the present building was occupied. The area of the district is 66-15--16 Square miles, or 42,840 acres. The assessed valuation of the district is about 3E3,50U,OU0.00. The present school site includes about ive acres and with the school plant is Worth at least 5H5l25,000.00 in present day values. The high school is on the accredited lists of the University of Illinois and ot the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. This is the highest rank that any high school in Illinois has. The present number of graduates is 404-137 men and 267 Women. Few communities have so attractive school grounds and plant. The morale of the students and the quality of the teachers' instruction are excellent. The high school is Well worth all that it costs. 6 VVAVERLY TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL alll 'M QAEM '71 F S0 The Wave W T H S THE BOARD OF EDUCATION Few really appreciate the services rendered a com- munity by a competent .board of education. Member- ship involves great responsibility. A board who do their duty devote considerable time and thought to the school administration. The responsibility requires men of high ideals and business integrity, men who have the best interests of the community at heart and who are Willing to perform the duties of their position even at a sacrifice to their own business interests. Our present board of education, as well as those of the past, are men who measure up to the standard herein set forth, as the high school revealed in this publication clearly demonstrates. 8 The Wave W.

The Wave W. T. H. S. OUR PAST The nucleus of the class of '22 was the result of eighth grade graduation from the rural schools and from the Waverly grade school. In my quest for a single expression that has in it the power to delineate, to the full, the idiosyncrasies of this class I find nothing equals H57 varieties . By this Mr. Heinz advertised his line of foods and Condiments, each of which, though it may be a plain or complicated dish, is unsurpassed. Likewise the 57 members of the class of '22 were of equal excellence. The following words are penned in order that the general public may become somewhat acquainted with this aggregation of local minors, whose history for the past four years bespeaks for them, if not an opulent future, then what is even better, a successful life. On a rainy September morning in the year of 1918, we entered the VVaverly Township High Schoolea bunch of confident Freshmen. The upper classmen were assembled there that eventful morning when we were initiated into the wonders of the system of training so different from that of the grade schools. Dur- ing the first month of school the class was organized and the following officers elected: President, Marie Walls, Vice-President, Donald YVoods, Secretary, Robert Garmong Treasurer, Donald Hughes One of the most exciting events was the Freshman-Sophomore Chase which took place early in the year. As we were not so well acquainted with the good hiding places of the town we were obliged to pay for the refreshments. Soon we settled down to the regular routine of work, namely, those interesting, absorbing, and much loved studies of Algebra, English, and Latin. During this year school was closed for six weeks on account of the Influenza Epidemic. During this time we were saddened by the death of one of our school-mates, Lillie Crawford. In spite of the fact that our school work was interrupted most of us reached harbor with Hying colors. We started again in September, 1919 under the title of Sophomore. VVe were under the leadership of the following officers: President, Lawrence Duncan, Vice-President, Bernice Richardson, Secretary, Allan Harrison, Treasurer, Mildred Parkinson. This year we saw that our pennant of red and white found its place upon the Assembly wall. At the Annual Hunt we were hidden so well that the Freshies suffered our fate of the previous year. Our interest in athletics was manifested from the first. Several members of our class made the first team in both football and basketball during the Freshman year, and were even more proficient as Sophomores. Juniors! That name alone suggests many things. The officers who were to pilot us through this year were: President, Oscar Miller, Vice-President, Bernice Richardson, Secretary and Treasurer, Rachel Sevier. Again the repre- sentatives of our class made quite a place for themselves in the athletic Held. Many enjoyable events came and went during this, our Junior year, but the one which will always stand Hrst in our minds was the junior-Senior banquet. We then turned our hopes to next year when we were to be Seniors. In the fall of 1921 we again entered the portals of VVaverly High, this time to realize the magnitude, the loftiness, the grandeur, the dignity attached to that lordly name, Seniors. During our three years of high school several, having chosen to enter their vocation without inishing their education, have left our midst, 22 The Wave W. T. H. S, OUR PAST CContinuedD and our fifty-ieven has decreased to twenty-nine. The officers chosen to lead us through this year were: President, Oscar Millerg Vice-President, Eunice Horst- mang Secretary and Treasurer, Rachel Sevier. Early in the year we began plan- ning for the annual which we later decided to call The Wave . Not much has been said of the publication, but you will no doubt agree with us as you glance through its pages that it is very characteristic of the excellent qualities of the class of '22. In March the high school gave a carnival which was sponsored by the Senior Class. This proved to be a great success financially, and also furnished much enjoyment. The junior-Senior Banquet was given May 26 with suc- cess equal to that of last year. The biggest event of the year was the Senior Class Play given May 29, and the final event was the awarding of the diplomas, Commencement Day, May 30. Now we must seal this roll of history and say good-bye to our dear old Alma- Mater. Though we dislike to part from our faculty and lower classmen, yet we are glad to go out into a broader field of action. Class of '22 In the rhyming lines which follow I shall try with all my might To depict each Senior separate In a way, I hope, that's right. Mildred Parkinson '22 First is john, he's so called Spingerol, And his Dad sells chillies toog Johnnie's always polite and pleasing And, like his Dad, he says, Thank you . Next is lVIiller, good old Oscarg At the phone, he is at ease. He's a real sport, yes, I believe it, And he quotes, HYour number please . And the boys all love to kid himg They call him Hippo, Oz, and Mutt, But the name which always peeves him Is Oscar Miller Hickory Nut. There is Rachel with her lingo And her never ceasing smileg She'd light the way most any day, With her clothes and form and style. Then there's Gilbert, he's so learned, That he studies every nightg Little Eva is his favorite, And he calls her his bright light. The next we ind is lvlae, the typistg In her line she is supremeg She can write all o'er the keyboard And make some buzz with her machine. Then there's Dennis, so called Blinkyg From Cubby's orchard he did rung One night while courting Louise shyly, Cubby chased him with a gun. If we wish to have our roads paved, See the boy called Ibra Burnsg On the hard road he was held up And since then for fights he yearns. 23 The Wave W. 1.

Then there's Hester, May-Bell, Andrew And for verse she always yearnsg She's quite fond of Keats and Browning Yet she thinks a lot of Burns. Now comes the dashing, brave, young hero, With the name of Shiny Hood. He's the best guy in our high school Though his heart is made of wood. When I say his heart is woody, I mean towards girls, you seeg 'Cause he says, I do not like them Though they're crazy after me. And then there's Betty, the young blonde lady And though she acts like life's a bore, Yet she's not so very gloomy, When a boy starts to adore. Next comes Cleary, with the name Charlotta, toog She has all the boys in a trance, She dresses quite nifty in clothes of her type And her favorite sport is to dance. Then there's Betty, which could have been Letty, 'Cause her smile is one safe bet, She's got the style, the pep, the spirit, And she's called the gay brunette. Next comes Duke, the miller's first aidg He is Fred E's right hand man. He is working for a cause, though, He's expecting VVinnie's hand. His spare time is spent on Ford cars And he says it's some relief just to know that in the future He will be jack's new ire-chief. Then there's Daisy, our young lady, And her kiddish days are past. She states the boys-they all so tire her And their love-it doesn' tlast. The next is a boy, who has tastes all his owng He knows everything, the why and the cause. He's Shorty's sweet boy, she says he's her joy, And I believe that they call him Hog jaws. Next comes the irst of the girls in one gangy Her last name is Gotschall, her irst name is Pegg She's just a sweet dear, all the boys love her near, And all for forgiveness they beg. She's just a wee kid, though quite old, I am told, And her taste for one boy is a fadg She's had several you know, but she's got just one beau, And L. Duncan is at present the lad. 24 I I The Wave CLASS OF '22 QContinuedj Next of this group is a girl with brown hairy She loiters quite often around in the hallsg She's nice to a T, so she'll pass you can see, And her name is just plain Miss M.

YVhen she says she is peeved, you will know that 'Cause actions speak louder than talk. just say, HUny dear, won't you come over here, And sl'1e'll come in her nice little walk. And last but not least, is the girl by my sideg Her Hrst name is Martha, they call me her beau, She's always at ease, tries her best just to pleaseg Now I'll quit, 'fore I tell all I know. Next comes the big boy whose nickname is Bobg He's quite a fine chap, yes, I know you'll agree, He studies quite hard, and is somewhat a barb, Though he's friendly and pleasing, you see. Next is A. Conlee, he's a chap of much grace: He'll make a fine farmer I'm told. He kids all the girls, and he calls them his pearls, And he says that his treasures they hold, Then comes a chap whom we call Lester Millsg He's a nice little boy from over the hills, He's Mona's best beau, and to Franklin they go, And he says he likes girls that Wear frills. The next girl is Margaret, whose last name is Allen, She's the girl with emotions galore. She'll be great some fine day, and she'll show us the way To invent some new portable door. The next girl is Frances of Johnson by nameg She's quite a French pippin, and looks best in blue: She dresses quite nifty, though in cooking she's thrifty, And her husband will be lucky, that's true. The next is our Milly, yes, Mildred is right, She's quite a ine girlie, her manners are quietg She's got all the Blarney, of dear old Killarney, And I know you'll agree that she's always polite. The next is the star of the team of last fallg At Full-Back he played quite sincere, He made gain after gain, which of course gained him And we're sorry he leaves school this year. Now this ends the list, yes, all but myself, And of course the writer can't speak, Now I thank everyone for your time, yes, I'm done, And if you'll pardon me, I'll now take my seat. she's not, fame -W.

OUR FUTURE One ideal day in the autumn of l932, I rather suddenly decided to visit my old school friend, Marie Walls, who was married and living in Oak Park. Al- though the journey was short, it was one which I shall remember, for when I looked up to hand the conductor my ticket, I was greatly surprised to Hnd Allan Conlee calmly standing in the aisle waiting for it. He was the first member of the class of '22 whom I had met in ive years. When I arrived at the Chicago Union Station I hailed a Yellow Taxi and gave the driver the address. A sign on the front of the car which read Hobaker Special excited my curiosity and, although it may not be just proper to ask questions of a strange taxi driver, I threw discretion to the winds and asked him whom the K'Hobaker referred to. His reply was, f'To the owner of the company, ma'amf' However, by a great deal of questioning and suggesting I was able to learn that Mr. Louis Hobaker, none other than 'fDukes of W. T. I-I. S., had been so successful in the milling business that he had been able to buy the Yellow Taxi Line and was now running special lines from Chicago to the various suburbs. By this time I had arrived at my destination and after tipping the driver, for I considered that the terrific effort which he had been forced to exert in order to answer my various and sundry questions was worthy of some compensation, I hurried up the steps and rang the bell with force enough to cause the sound to echo and re-echo through the silent house. When the door opened my heart sank to my heels, for completely obstruct- ing the doorway stood an old negro mammy, whose optical inspection of my anat- omy seemed to promulgate my hitherto, unnoticed insignificance. After entirely exhausting myself in an effort to obtain some cognizance as to my whereabouts, I succeeded in learning that I had made no mistake in the address but that the f'Missus done went ter some kinder meetin' what am electricutin' fer dat der Billy Bryan man what am wantin' ter be our next presidink, and after listening to a lengthy and detailed elucidation of matters unfamiliar to me, she disclosed to me the fact that the honorable Dr. Alderson was away also, visiting one of his patients. He had graduated from the Washington University School of Med- icine and was now a successful physician. After due deliberation as to whether or not it would be wise to allow me to enter those carefully circumspected portals, my negress friend, forsuch was she to be now and forever after, decided in the affirmative and I was ushered into the living room with all the pomp and ceremony that was forth-coming at such an occasion, After giving me necessary instructions, Mahitable left me to my own devices, while she went shopping. I had just made myself comfortable when the doorbell rang and I was obliged to answer its summons. Before I could even get the door opened, I found myself informing the salesman, who had his line of cosmetics arrayed in an attractive display on the top step, what kind of face powder I used. Since my vocal activities were impeded by his loquPcity, I had sufficient oppor tunity to observe his person and I was greatly surprised when I recognized john- Romang. After I had made my purchases I made inquiries about the rest of the class of '22, and learned that Allan Woods and Ibra Burns had both been success- ful in agriculture g Allan had discovered a new soil fertilizer which had proved very beneficial to his fellow farmersg Ibra was now owner of a large stock farm and was making a specialty of Razorbacks. After he was gone I occupied my time by rereading a letter which I had re- ceived that morning from Venetoria Van Arden, who was better known to the class of '22 as Mildred Parkinson, and who was traveling in Europe, gathering material for her new novel. I did not have long to wait until the mistress of the 27 f The Wave Q W. T. H. S. OUR FUTURE CCcmtinuedj house returned and while we were discussing our own interests, I learned that Marie must make a short business trip to Chicago in the interest of the campaign, so I decided to go with her. The evening of the second day of our sojourn in the metropolis, found us in the new Trivoli Theater. We were very greatly surprised to find the former Martha Edmiston in the next box. We had our seats changed and while waiting for the performance to begin, we renewed our old acquaintance. We were sur- prised to hear that Wayne Cody was singing the leading part in the opera which was to be given that night and that Lorain Dennis, Waverly's cornet teacher, was playing in the symphony orchestra at New York. She told us that this was the last night for that opera in Chicago and that she and VVayne were going on to New York the next day. While they were there, they were going to visit Bernice Gotschall, who was a popular artist living in a studio in Greenwich Village, before they sailed for Europe. On the next day, which was Sunday, Marie and I went to one of the large, society churches on Michigan Avenue. It seemed to us that the preacher was vaguely familiar but we could not quite decide who he was. However, as soon as he began to speak, we recognized him by his voice as our old school friend, Wayne Gilbert, who had climbed to the pinnacles of fame on the ladder of reli- gious fervor. During the remainder of my visit we spent a great deal of time discussing our old school friends and by the time that I had returned to my domicile, I had learned what every member of the wonderful class of '22 was doing. Robert Miller had become a marvelous orator and was now travelling through the country lecturing. The new owner of the Bell Telephone Company was none other than Oscar Miller, the class president who used to ask, 'tNumber, please,', in such a quiet and patient manner. Margaret Allen had gone to Montana and had bought a cattle ranch. She had become enormously wealthy because of the fact of the discovery of oil on her farm. Frances Johnson and Hester Andrew had entered into the holy bonds of matrimony at an early age and were now efficient wives of successful farmers. Daisy Vandveer had also entered into this state of ecstatic bliss but it was only for a short time, for her husband passed into the realms beyond, at the end of one year of wedded life and she was now Dean of a girls' boarding school in San Francisco. Lloyd Loving and Lester Mills had followed the athletic trend of their natures and had found themselves well known in the sportworldg Lloyd because of his adeptness at managing professional football teams and Lester because of his boxing abilities, had become the light weight champion of the world. Mae Morris was a linguist and was teaching French in an Eastern University. Lawrence Hood, otherwise known as Shiny, had become a famous interior decor- ator and had just completed the redecoration of the White House. Rachel Sevier had done much to relieve the suffering of humanity in her capacity as head nurse in the Roosevelt Hospital, New York City, Charlotta Cleary had cultivated her ability to design costumes and had risen to great prominence in the world of fashion. Leona jackson had graduated with honors from Business College and was now private secretary to Mr. Dorris, who was occupying the governor's mansion at Springfield, Illinois. Elizabeth Agnew and Elizabeth Kennedy, the blond and the brunette of the class, had gone to Colorado and had opened a very flourishing tea-room and inn on the trail of Pikes Peak. Since each member of the Class has Hlled such-an important position in the world of fame and glory, we wonder what the world would do without the class of twenty-two.

T. H. S. THE SPECTATOR SEES THE CLASS OF '23 Having often received an invitation from my friend, Mr. Dorris, to visit the Waverly High School, I recently took occasion to avail myself of the oppor- tunity of seeing a modern high school in action. As a whole I was much pleased with the school, but I noticed one group of students which interested me very much. I could not help observing that they seemed more studious than the pupils on either side of them. As I watched how diligently they pursued their studies, I became afraid that, in their eagerness to learn, they had neglected to get from their school life that certain amount of fun that should always go with study. When the bell rang for dismissal, my fears were quickly allayed for they imme- diately dropped all care and became a happy carefree bunch of girls and boys. This exceptional class so interested me that I made inquiries concerning its past record. I was told that this class had started its high school career in September of l9l9, and that now its members were nearing their goal with an enviable record. ' In their studies they have always excelled and never have been excelled. In athletics their members are always numbered among the stars. During the present year the class has given the school a football captain, Lester Hughes, and a basket- ball captain, Theodore Harris. In literary work their record is as good as in other fields and at the present time the presidents of both the literary societies are juniors: Lincolnonian, Winifred Deatherage and Washingtonian, Eva Mitchell. The bearers of the Purple and Gold have always taken an active part in all of the social activities of the school. In this field they have been rather unfortunate, having lost in both their Freshman-Sophomore Huntsg but this last year past they have shown great ability and have carried away all of the honors in contests held at both the Get Acquaintedl' party and the Hallowe'en Party. The class officers for 1921-'22 are Winifred Deatherage, President, Eva Mitchell, Vice-President, Helen Crum, Secretary, and Delmar Smedley, Treasurer. I spoke to some of the pupils conceming their ambitions and expectations for the future. I found them to be very modest in their demands for the future as most of the boys hoped to be bank presidents, oil kings, or good second story men, while the members of the more selfish sex desired to marry rich, to be school teachers, or to make a success of life. As I departed I meditated that I had found forty-five girls and boys who were making the best of a splendid opportunity to prepare themselves for a useful and successful future. D. VV. S.

T. H. S. SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On September the first, in the year nineteen hundred and twenty, forty-five boys and girls set out from the City of Vacation with great fear upon them that should they remain longer they would live and die in a state of ignorance. They soon fell into the great Slough of Despond and were overcome by the difficulties which attended registration and the adjustment of classes. They were beset on every side by grave hardships. Many were the unwhole- some influences which attempted to swerve them from their course but their purpose was a worthy one, and presently they passed through the Wicket Gate and conquered the wise and worldly Sophomores in the first event of the season, the Freshman-Sophomore Hunt. In the Valley of Humiliation they received much scorn and scofiing from the Seniors and upper-classmen. They then continued on their way until they came to the Hill of Difficulty The road of oral themes, quadratic equations, and subjunctive mood became so hard that some, by devious ways, sought to evade them. But this little band of adventurers held on with a tenacity that amazed the upper classmen. In the Valley of the Shadow of Examinations, they were beset with fear as to the out- come of the year's work. The faithful ones, who had not been deterred from their endeavors by the wiles of their companions or by the pitfalls and snares which had been set for them, were triumphant and gained the credits necessary for the entrance into Sophomore City. In the year twenty-one the majority of these boys and girls continued on their journey. They again won the victory in the Freshman-Sophomore Hunt, and because no other class had ever acccmplished this feat before, they felt highly elated and therefore they entered into the Country of Conceit. They pressed onward until they reached the City of Vanity Fair. Here they became very frivolous and gay and indulged in many parties and social activities. Now they are passing through Enchanted Ground, straining their eyes to catch a glimpse of Iuniorville. They will soon obtain this desire and may look down from the top of the mount and view with delight the fair and triumphant City of Graduation. .

T. H. S SOUTH VIEW NORTH VIEVV 47 The Wave W. T. H. j. W. LYTHELL There is no person connected with a school whose services are more important than those of the janitor. Both teachers and pupils are, in a large measure, dependent upon him for much of their success. There are numerous things which must be done from time to time to insure comfort and efficiency in the class- room, which the janitor is always expected to do. The character of the work done in a school is often indicated by the manner in which the school premises are kept. Likewise the best exponent of good school spirit is the condition of the school grounds. The Waverly Township High School is most fortunate in having a man who meets practically every efficiency test which might be used in judging a man's qualifications for janitor. Mr. Lythell is faithful in the performance of his duties, cooperative in his relations with pupils and teachers, and obliging in accommodating the public when the buildings or grounds are used for community activities. One rarely finds a janitor whose work is so generally appreciated. ' 48 THLETICS :-1-. I' A - ..

We won five games and lost three with a total of 1115 points to our opponents' 117 points. We had seven letter men around which our team was built. Although we had only two weeks of practice, Coach Hufford had all our men in good shape for the opening game with Beardstown. Mr. Hufford, our coach, deserves a great deal of credit for the showing that our team made. He had to work hard to get the boys in condition but he was rewarded for it. Coach Hufford came to us from Palmyra, and before his work in Palmyra he was coach at jacksonville High for three years. He is a three letter man from Hanover College, Indiana. Our team was ably led by Captain Hughes during most of the 1921 season, but owing to injuries he was not .able to play in all of the games. The backing which the team received from the students and teachers was a big factor in the success of the season. And the banquet which the business men of Waverly give annually went a long way toward making the boys feel happier. Twenty-six players finished the 1921 season, Captain Hughes, Hood, R. Kerns, Taylor, W. Gilbert, G. Kerns, Baldwin, Ashbaugh, Harris, Turner, Alderson, Woods, Loving, E. Gilbert, Bryan, Hart, Harrison, Deatherage, Hobaker, Luttrell, Dennis, Shearburn, Newberry, McClain, Leslie, and Bullard. FOOTBALL GAMES The season opened on October 1, when W. T. H. S. traveled to Beardstown. It was a long, hot, overland trip, and the boys were not in the best of condition to play but Waverly put up one of its old time fights and walked thru Beardstown with a 32-0 score. On October 8, the husky Pittsield team came to visit us. They were large brawny fellows and looked capable of beating almost anybody but they reckoned without their host. After the first few minutes of play Waverly opened up with an assortment of plays that fairly dazed them, and won the game by a 35-6 score. This was the only time that Pittsfield was beaten during the season. The next week, October 15, we journeyed to Palmyra. Although we won the game it was really to our sorrow for the injuries received, due to unnecessary roughness, caused us to lose the next two games. The game was very fast despite the roughness. Our only touchdown was made in the last few minutes of play when Harris, our speedy end, intercepted a forward pass and ran 90 yards for a touchdown. The score was Waverly-6-Palmyra-0. Although we were seriously handicapped by the injuries received the previous week, Coach Hufford had a fair combination ready to go against Carlinville on October 22. VVe went to Carlinville with our hopes not too high and came home with them a little lower, Carlinville beat us 28-O, but we were not utterly dis- souraged for we were beaten by a very good team. ' The next Saturday, October 29, we went to Carrollton but only to meet defeat again. This time the score was 28-3. VVe still had our three men out of the lineup and had another knocked in the first few minutes of play. The Carroll- ton team while not so large was fast and peppy and put up a great game. Our next opponents were our old rivals, jacksonville, who came down and gave us the worst beating we had received for many a year. They were all huskies and each man was playing his best to beat us as 49 points for them and 0 for us would indicate. We next met White Hall but this time we had a full line up and almost rubbed out the Jacksonville score, beating White Hall 48-0. Every man was playing his best andit naturally had to be a win for us. At last the big game with Auburn, our old Turkey Day foes. Auburn came with a fast team expecting to win but the W. T. H. S. squad walked thru them for three touch downs and three goal kicks while Auburn only received two lonely field goals making the score 21-6 in our favor. This was the Hnal game of the 1921 season.

ELMER GILBERT In September 1919 Elmer Gilbert entered the Waverly Township High School as a Freshman. He was in the midst of his junior year when he contracted blood poison and died on Jan. 25, 1922. His death was a shock to the community. Elmer was a good,industrious student and an athlete of considerable ability. He played a splendid game at half back on the football team last season, and at the time of his death he was on the basketball team. Elmer was working his way through school, paying all his living and school expenses out of his earnings. Through his frugality and industry he had also saved several hundred dollars. These evidences of his earnestness in getting an education and his industry and business sagacity are indicative of a superior quality of manhood and citizenship in the process of development. It is a great privilege and pleasure to have such a student in school. There were other commendable qualities which Elmer possessed. Through all his hard work out of school and his student life he maintained a quiet, dignified and optimistic bearing which encouraged everyone. His conduct was exemplary and his position very high in the estimation of all who knew him. Everyone who knew him well admired and respected him. This respect was made manifest whenall the teachers and practically all the students attended his funeral at Loami. 54 The Wave W. T. H. S. FOOTBALL BANQUET AT W. T. H. S. Football Team of 1921 Royally Entertained by Business Men at High School Gym. On Wednesday night, jan. ll, the business men of Waverly gave their annual banquet in the high school gymnasium to the members of the football squad, the coach and principal. The girls of the cooking class, in charge of their instructor, prepared and served the banquet. ' The menu consisted of: fruit salad, creamed chicken in timbals, mashed potatoes, buttered peas, cranberry jelly, pickles, hot rolls and butter, burnt almond charlotte, cake, coffee, mints, which was served in four courses. Preparations were made for fifty-five, nearly all of whom were present. Mayor C. A. Carter acted as chairman and toastmaster in an admirable manner, intro- ducing each speaker with a word of commendation or other fitting remarks. The theme of practically every talk was the Spirit of Fair Play , which seems to be the dominant element in our community and high school life. Another thing that was emphasized was the apparent efficiency of the present administration- a condition which is most satisfactory indeed. There were probably twenty or more who responded with short talks, includ- ing members of the football squad. Principal Dorris was the last to speak, and concluded his remarks by delegating to Coach Hufford the duty of awarding the high school emblem-the letter W -to the boys of the squad whose service during the season made them worthy to receive this reward. Mr. Hufford did this in a most appropriate manner, applying to each player, when he came to receive his letter, a fitting word of praise and appreciation of his attitude and work during the season. The fourteen boys who were awarded the W are: Lester Hughes, Lloyd Loving, Wayne Gilbert, Everett Turner, Elmer Gilbert, Allan Woods, Ted Harris, Mendel Baldwin, james Ashbaugh, Richard Kerns, Allan Harrison, Glenn Taylor, George Kerns, Charles Alderson. At the close of the banquet Mayor Carter and Dr. J. D, Chenoweth were elected chairman and secretary for the ensuing year, which act makes certain another glorious banquet next year. During the evening Miss Lena Holland, the Home Economics teacher, was awarded a dozen and a half pink carnations as an appreciation of her part in pre- paring the banquet. The spirit of good fellowship thruout the entire evening was remarkable. It certainly was indicative of the disposition on the part of the business and pro- fessional men present to boost the high school at all times with all their might. 55. FOOTBALL BANQUET 9LI.L 'Ad 949,14 '71 F In I The Wave W. T. H. S. FACULTY FOOTBALL DINNER The Faculty, wishing to express their loyalty to the football teams in a sub- stantial way, entertained them at a six o'clock dinner, The boys, gathered around the artistically decorated tables, presented a pleasing sight not soon to be forgotten. The dinner was followed by toasts, Mr. Dorris very graciously acting as toast master, with Miss Allen, Mrs. Brabill, Mrs. Hufford, Mr. Smith, Mr. Hufford and the Senior boys responding most informally. THE CINDER BRIGADE A great pile of cinders of two or three years' accumulation lay on the school grounds just southwest of the building until last November. lifforts had been made for more than a year to get them removed. just before the High School Conference Mr. Dorris suggested to the boys that they organize to remove the cinders to the track on the Athletic held. About twenty-five met, elected Allan Conlee Captain, and planned to work while school was not in session. Under the janitor's supervision they removed the cinders to the track and performed a worthy service to the school. CINDER BRIGADE 57 The Wave W. T. H. S. BASKET BALL At the beginning of the basket ball season our chances for a good team were rather slim, but Coach Hufford with his usual skill and fighting spirit started to work building up a team, and after a two weeks practice, we had a fairly good team with which to start the season. But just when the boys were all getting used to each other, old man jinx found us and we lost one of our best players from illness and then two more from ineligibility. This loss proved to be a very serious one and one -which we didn't overcome until the last of the season which we ended with astring of seven straight victories. We had a twenty-two game schedule winning eleven and losing eleven. Al- though we won half of our games we had 448 points scored to our 420. The second team also played three games winning two out of the three. The squad was led by Captain Harris who through injuries was not able-to play all the season, but was a good consistent man while there. At the district tournament in jacksonville we drew Rushville which defeated us 22-10. Summary of Season December 8-W. T. H. S.-19, Pawnee-16 December 9-W. T. H.

THE LATIN CLUB The Latin Club, under the very able direction of Miss Dorullis, was re-or- ganized on December the thirty-first, nineteen twenty-one, by the members of the Caesar Class. Opal Branom was elected Presidentg Carrie Jackson, Vice- Presidentg Stuart Coe, Secretary and Treasurer. Those pupils who had studied two years or more of Latin and Were still attending school were permitted to join. It was also decided by the members that pupils taking Latin with an average of ninety or above be initiated, and they were initiated February the twenty-second. There are forty members in the club. The main purpose of the club is, as the motto portrays, Crescat Scientia or 'lMay knowledge increasef' that is, in Latin Language. Glenit Lepus Par- vulusn was chosen club song. Old rose and gray are the club colors. Meetings of the club are held every Tuesday evening after school. The programs, based on the Life of the Romans, are held every fourth Tuesday of the month. At the roll call of every meeting each member responds with a Latin quotation or some current event relating to Latin countries. At the end of the school year a banquet will be served in accordance with the Roman Customs. Sadie K. Jones, '24 68 The Wave - W. T. H. S, ORANGE AND BLACK The Orange and Black is the Weekly news-carrier of What is happening and what is going to happen-a written expression of the thoughts, feelings, and ideals of the school. In 1917, during Mr. Colbert's regime, the Orange and Black was started. Miss Allen became its Faculty Adviser and has continued in that capacity ever since, piloting the paper over many a rocky shoal and through many a quiet sea. The Orange and Black staff is selected from students having a literary bent or A nose for news. Each is given an assignment with the suggestion that he is to interest as many students as possible to contribute to the success of the Weekly columns. The Orange and Black is not essentially a news columng it has a literary featureg this includes the metrical efforts of our rising poets, the Wit of the humorists and now and then one of those themes. Good Wishes to the future staff of the Orange and Black. Good luck to its readers, the students of the W. T. H. S. 69 The Wave W. T. H. S. THE AGRICULTURAL CLUB We are the Ags. We believe in one Almightyg that the great outdoors and His sunshine were made to work and play ing that His will is that which makes storm and calm, bountiful harvests and lean ones, sorrow and joy. Ours may not be the noblest calling or the highest profession. We are content to know that the task of feeding the people ranks with the sublime. Our organization has a twofold purpose, namely, to gain valuable information and to improve our social opportunities. Any person who does not know something about agriculture and who has not enriched his life with some farm experiences, should not claim to be truly cultured and educated. 70 FATHER AND SON BANQUET The Wave W. T. H. S. THE FATHER AND SON BANQUET A very pleasant and prontable 'gathering was the father and son banquet held in the auditorium, Tuesday evening, November 22, 1921. This delightful occasion gave an opportunity for fathers and sons to become better acquainted with the ideals and activities of high school. The banqut was served in four courses, having been prepared by the Home Economics Classes under the supervision of Miss Holland. Many deserving re- marks were passed upon the line menu and the manner in which it was served. Mr. VValls acted as toastmaster. The Hrst to respond was Mr. G. B. Kendall the farm adviser, who gave an interesting talk on various agricultural topics. Mr. C. C. Woods gave a report on corn root rot and Mr. Dorris told why many boys leave the farm. In order to keep the boys interested in the fairn, Mr. Dorris urged a better spirit of comradeship between father and son. JUNIOR CORN SHOW W. T. H.

It relates the adventures of a young automobile salesman scarcely out of his 'teens who, upon inheriting a girls' boarding school from a maiden aunt, insists on running it himself, according to his own ideas, chief of which is, by the way, that the dom- inant feature in the education of the young girl of today should be charm. The situations that arise are teeming with humor-clean, wholesome humor.

MAY FESTIVAL A festival to celebrate the arrival of spring was presented jointly by the W'averly Grade School and the High School in the City Park, Friday, May 19, at 4:00 o'clock. The first scene showed the disappearance of Winter and the arrival of Spring, the various parts played by grade school children. The second scene opened with the solo dance, Dance of the May, by Elizabeth Kennedy, to welcome the approach of the May Queen, Frances Johnson, and her attendants, eight Senior girls. Then followed a program of dances, given in honor of the May Queen, as follows: Balloon Dance Dance of the Flowers VVill O, the Wisp Winding of the May Pole by 24 Girls A Grand March of all participants in the May Festival THE GET ACQUAINTED PARTY The first party given by the Juniors and Seniors to the Sophomores, Freshmen and new members of the Faculty, was held September 23 in the gymnasium. Mr. Hufford directed a mock track meet which furnished amusement for all. Each event required a representative from the four classes. The juniors won with a score of 43 points, the Seniors took second place with a score of 41 points. Refreshments of strawberry ice cream and wafers were served. It was generally agreed that this was the best Get-Acquaintedu party ever given in the W. T. H. S. gymnasium. MASQUERADE PARTY On October 29, all masqueraders gathered in the W. T. H. S. corridor. Many and varied were their costumes, there were witches, ghosts, owls, negroes, and old women. The motley crowd marched to the gymnasium where under dimmed lights shadowy outlines of cornstalks and pumpkins gave a weird atmosphere. The games, the fortunes, and the miniature track meet caused much hilarity. The juniors were the winners in the meet. As a reward each received an all-day- sucker. Mr. Dorris, Mr. Lythell, and Mr. Duncan formed a committee to determine the prettiest costume, the most humorous, and the best character portrayal. Louise Miller 'received the prize for the prettiest costume, Minnie Welchman and Dorothy Luttrell, for the most humorous, and Marian Ashbaugh for the best character portrayal. When the pumpkin pies and chocolate were gone, the masqueraders knew it was time to leave the weird atmosphere and go home. GIRLS' GYM PARTY On January 6, Mrs. Smith gave a gymnasium party for the W. T. H. S. girls, the hours being from 3 :3O to 5:30. All the girls came attired in middies, basket- ball bloomers, and tennis shoei They brought their own lunches. All sorts of games were played, the Virginia Reel being especially enjoyed. FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE HUNT The annual Freshman-Sophomore hunt was held in October. True to tradition the Sophomores were not found, their hiding place being the Mathematics room. VVithout a murmur, the Freshmen very graciously entertained their superiors. VALENTINE BUFFET DINNER Miss Holland was hostess to the mothers of the Cooking Class girls, the wives of the School Board and Faculty members, and the lady teachers, on February 14.

HATCHET ORATION In behalf of the class of 1922 it becomes my duty to bestow upon the Juniors this token of honor-the key to success, prosperity, and happiness. For one year we have cherished this token, without which our struggles would have been in vain. VVe have prized this talisman highly, for it is so typical of a number of our class, who by its aid have done many wonderful things. As you gaze upon this hatchet, do you not see many things which remind you of Senior individuals? For instance, this long, slender handle-who other than Bob Miller and his smooth- ness does it suggest? The hard head-how typical of Lester Mills, who could by no means have graduated this year had it not been for his association with intelligent people. Does not this shining surface suggest Lawrence Hood, from whose smiling face the sunlight is always beaming, and Elizabeth Agnew, whose crystal-clear countenance is never shadowed by a cloud? And this sharp edge- is it not a perfect representation of the keen intelligence of the class of '22? Did you ever wonder how Eunice, Daisy, and Mildred made such good grades? It was by the aid of this talisman. And there are many others, who by persistent working and close companionship with this magic symbol, passed quietly by grade post number seventy-five. With this hatchet Dukes and I chopped our way through those terrible English tests, and by its help Francis, Charlotta, and Woods cleared their right-of-way through American History. Yes, this hatchet is truly symbolic of the class of '22. We are bright and keen for duty, hard to defeat, and smooth to escape the cruel instructors' threats, and the Grange and Black which twines about this mystic hatchet suggests our love for and loyalty to our Alm Mater. Now we have crossed the Great Divide and shall no longer need its magic power. We realize that there are many in your class who will need it immensely. For three years we have hoped that by our example you might be prompted to turn for the better, but our hopes have been in vain. If ignorance is bliss you Juniors have for a long time dwelt in Heaven. Do not depend altogether on this hatchet, however, Remember, it only helps those who help themselves. For three years it has been a characteristic of your class to do as little work as possible and to receive as much praise as possible' Browning said, It is not what a man does that tires him, but what he shall dof' However, if you succeed as Seniors you must accumulate more brains than you have now and work. Because of your limited amount of intelligence, your mind has no conception of the honor to be conferred upon you, and therefore, you do not realize or appreciate its true worth. Perceiving the depth of your ignorance and the condition into which you have drifted, we realize that it would be an in- justice to you to perform anything note worthy. Indeed the only incident in your high school life that you may some day recall with pleasure is the day when you will surrender this hatchet to a class more worthy of it than you are. I feel that it is my duty to advise you on certain points before you enter your Senior year. Improve your English. If you have Miss-Allen next year, do her every bidding and you will go forth from W. T. H. S. speaking perfect English as this wondrous class has done. If you have Mr. Dorris, be sure and get THE ARTICLES OF THE CONFEDERATION, also the various and sundry topics of his. Hughes, be a good chum to this hatchet and it will assist you in the five or six subjects you will be required to carry in order to graduate next year. Peter Glen, Doc, and Bradley will have to keep very frequent company with it. As I 88 The Wave W. T. H. S. gaze over your class, I see several heads that look as if they were made of something besides sawdust and bones. I feel sure that, though these people are fortunate, they will have to resort to the hatchet in critical times to master all their subjects. Will not one of the more dignified juniors now come forward to receive this hatchet? It is with great sorrow that we part with this talisman, the lone star that has guided us and many others before us, through difficulties inconceivable-the assistant which has lightened our burdens unbearable. But, dear juniors, we think not first of ourselves and our own welfare, but of you and yours. In accordance therewith, take this hatchet and may you successfully trod upon the trials and discomforts into the smooth streets and pleasures of Eternity. Oscar O. Miller JUNIOR RESPONSE In behalf of the Junior Class it gives me great pleasure to have the oppor- tunity of receiving this hatchet, the emblem of seniority, dignity, and wisdom, from so illustrious a class, the class of '22, We believe by the aid of this magic power we shall attain great success. We admit that this hatchet has a very hard head or it never would have stood the relentless blows with which Miss Kessing so faithfully tried to drive a little Plane Geometry into Lester's head. Mr. Dorris used this weapon also in ham- mering a small amount of knowledge of American History into the brains of Mar- garet Allen, Leona jackson, and Allan Harrison. True, the long slender handle does suggest Robert Miller and his smoothness in gliding over all difficulties. What of that? It is just as typical of Lester Hart. Yes, the shining surface is suggestive of Lawrence Hood's and Elizabeth Agnewls beaming countenances, but we do not admit that the sharp edge is typical of the keen intelligence of the class of '22. However, without the vigorous application of this keen edge some of the Senior boys never would have raised their English term grades. Truly, this hatchet is symbolic of your class, but our interpretation is not yours. We Juniors think this hard head is typical of your obstinacy, the shining surface, your brilliant ideas for blufhngg keen edge, not your ability to grasp problems, but a keenness for getting out of work and for misbehaving when Mr. Dorris is not around, and the long slender handle, your smoothness and cleverness in play- ing innocent when caught in the act. No doubt this talisman has been invaluable in helping some of the Seniors choose their vocations and avoeations. Wayne Cody wants to become famous in light opera, especially in singing Martha',, Lorain Dennis will become the greatest strawberry king in the world. Anyone wishing fme strawberries, see him, Marie Walls chooses to be a member of the legislature while Charlie stays at home and takes care of the house, Lester Mills has already applied for the position which Mr. Field has at present, because he thinks he has almost mastered the L'Morse code 5 Reverend J. T. Agnew has persuaded Shiny to study theology as he is becoming quite proficient in his Amens . Whether Elizabeth Kennedy will buy a farm at Atwater or become Everett Moffett's chief cook and bottle washer is yet unknown. Maybe we juniors have never done anything of material greatness, but our time is yet to come. We quote Browning correctly and live up to his words: 'Tis not what man Does that exalts him, but what he Would do. As you quote Brown- ing so you have spent your high school days, for it was not what you did that tired you, but what you were afraid you would have to do. In the great battle of life 89 The Wave W. T. H. S. you will not have the juniors to come to your rescue as they have, in order that your parties, receptions and entertainments may be successful, Do you not recall that the juniors led in all the contests of the year? Your motto should be, Think twice before you speak, if you are going to say that the juniors are characterized by doing as little work as possible and wanting much praise for it. We have listened to your warning and in some instances we shall take your advice. Though we have met and partly conquered the Century Hand Book, it may be that our English could be improved somewhat. However, we know that the foolish can give advice that the wise cannot follow. Yes, this little hatchet with the Orange and Black represents our Senior year in miniature: for its long smooth handle stands for our farsightedness and the smoothness with which we glide over all difficulties, moreover, the edge shows with what keenness we grasp all things, and better yet, within this hard head is summed up all our good sense without which Mr. Dorris would consider us worth- less, yes, and this shining surface represents our brilliancy and brightness, for we serve as a shining light toward which all the lower classmen will try in vain to guide their steps. But best of all, about all these symbols twines the Orange and Black which represents our love and loyalty for our school. Now, in behalf of the Class of 1923, I wish to thank you for this token of honor, and assure you we shall care for and preserve it far better than you.
