The vessel was a tall one. and none of the children could reach their comrade, who would certainly have been drowned had it not been for the wisdom of Kwang. He knew that anyone trying to save the boy through the mouth of the jar would not only be unsuccessful, but would probably himself fall in and be drowned. So Kwang took up a large stone lying on the around and. throwing it at the earthenware jar with all hts might, broke the vessel. The water at once ran out. and the little hoy was saved.

EDWARD JOSEPH “Eddie” EMERALD ROBERTS Commercial Club (4). In a little village lived a boy named Yenfoh. ivho was very bright and clever and always knew whet to do in difficult circumstances. One day while he was playing at ball with some companions the ball struck the top of a hollow post and then fell to the bottom inside, quite out of reach of the children. All of them, with the exception of Yenfoh. thought the ball was lost. But he knew what to do. He ran to the village well and drew a pail of water. Then, bringing this to the hollow post while the other children looked on in wonder. Yenfoh poured the water in. and the ball floated to the top where it could be reached. Juniors «STv. ' 1 ,w % -7 HIRAM CALLAHAN President FRANK SELLERS Treasurer ROGER PIERPONT Secretary WILLIAM PATTERSON Vice-president Juniors Although sundry deserving members of the class of ‘29 are not as yet enrolled in the Hall of Fame, it is a most illustrious class. For instance, there is Hiram Callahan, the president, who is a basketball captain, a football player and a chemist of note. There is Bill Patterson, who knows how to kick a football, and who has been chosen captain: Marjory Harper. Roger Pier-ponr. Fred James, and Bob Young, who are the essentials of Wellston Athletics, and Katy Dando. the girl's basketball captain who has it.” All organizations abound in Juniors, every one vows that their candy is the best to be had. and apparently, they can sponsor a good picture show. Consequently, these numerous activities drain them of vitality, when grades are concerned. They have worked diligentlv to gain their most ostentatious position. As upper classmen the Juniors assure themselves that they really are somebody. They have never been called upon to brandish the Hang together or hang separately signs as some past classes have done, but they feel that they will not be termed slackers when they are called upon to display real class spirit. The Juniors hope to make next year more successful, more gratifying, and more interesting than all the past three years.

His family, however, were too poor to buy oil. so what was he to dof A heavy fall of snow had taken place, and Kang suddenly remembered that white reflects light; so going out and sitting upon the cold around, he held his book so that the light from the snow shone upon the page. This he did all through the winter. Hut at last summer came, and at the same time the snow went. What could poor Kang do now? He remembered that glow-worms give a tiny light, and so he collected a large number of these little creatures, and by the light which they gave was able to continue his studies far into the night. Kang became a mandarin of high rank. Underclassmen ALMA BELLOMY Secretary DARLENE WORTMAN Treasurer HERBERT KESINGER President CHARLES SMITH Vice-president Sophomores The Sophomore of tradition is one given to an excessive strut and a parading of what he believes to be unflattering wisdom. Perhaps the present Sophomore class differs in no respect from the usual second year group, but we have a sneaking suspicion that they are a little better than the most. They proved this by having the highest number of representatives on the honor roll, three members on the Girls' winning Basketball team: and two on the Boys' team. Indeed they are well-represented in all activities. L93 ? t ? ? Treasurer GEORGE WILI S President JOHN PERKINS Secretary OVID HELM Vice-president Freshmen I imid and unassuming, —was the name received by the Freshies when they entered W. H. S. But they are full of pep and go.’ 1 hey have proved their loyalty to the school and been well represented in clubs and athletics. The Freshmen gave the first class party of the year, which was very successful. f rom all indications of the class of '31, it is evident that when they graduate they will have set a good example for all in-coming classes of Wellston High School. 13 2 Sophomores Alma Bellomy Verda Camink Naomi Clark Gertrude Clark Catherine Collin Mary Collins Rosa Davis Ruth Dew Hazel Downard Opal Downard Charity Griffis Margaret Gundelfinger Jennie Mae Rogers Helen Scott Martha Scurlock Lillie Souders Ruth Wetzel Darlene Wortman Marjorie Jones Dorothy Howell Laura Fern Hunley Cornelia Hougland Marcella Jones Edythe Kelley Martha Kisor Thelma Kontner Frances Lavender Jeanne I.cach Anna Lewis Jessie Lucas Helen Lockard Madge Maloy Etta Mae McBrayer Nellie McMannis Hazel Moler Icel Pierce Marcella Scurlock Margaret Shuter Edna Smith Janet Sylvester Frances Willard Nellie Mae Yarrington Harry Barr Clark Bayes Arthur Bishop Jordan Braley Richard Bryan Joseph Carey Marion Downard George Dougherty Erma Dillinger Leroy Duhl John Dupre Jean Hcndershott Paul Hogan John Hollingshcad Herbert Kesingcr Carey King Paul l.each Virgil Lewis Paul Moshier Herbert Owry Gordon Post Russell Platt William Rhodes Clyde Scott Norman Shelton Charles Smith Swisher Starcher Donald Stewart James Thompson Edward Wills Freshmen Raymond Branscomb Helen Davis Wilhelmine Emmert Harry Foster Elmonte Fair Arthur Gooding Harold Hughes Gerald Heading Sarah Hudson Lester Jacobs Roge.

A little boy who had the misfortune to lose his father when he u’as only four years old. wanted to study for the examinations; hut his mother lived in great poverty, and was quite unable to buy paper or pen and ink for him. The little boy. whose name was Yang-su was greatly distressed at this, and for some time did not hnow what to do. He certainly could not study if he was unable to write, and how could he write if he had no paperf Rut it was soon proved in the case of Yang-su that where there is a will there is a way. The boy lived near the seashore, and going down to the beach, he took with him a branch of a tree, and with it wrote down words and worked out his problems upon the sand.

But he found that after he had been sludging for some hours he began to get very drowsy, and his head would nod until finally he fell asleep. I h:s distressed him very much, and for some time he did not know what to do to keep awake. At last he thought of a way of doing this. He tied a cord to the end of his pigtail, and then fastened this to a beam in the root, so that when he slept and his head began to nod. the pull of the pigtail at once roused him up again. Girls’ Glee Club The Glee Club this year is composed of seventy-six members. They have sung newer and harder pieces than ever before, which proves that the music course is improving. They participated in the annual Eisteddfod, and although they lost were highly spoken of by the adjudicator. The Belle of Barcelona was also given which was the climax of the year. Although many of the members are Seniors this year, there are others to replace them. Boys’ Glee Club 1 he Boys’ Glee Club is, perhaps, not so well known as some of the other organizations of the school, but nevertheless, they are working steadily. It is very difficult to get a chorus of high school boys with voices that will blend, but Mr. Williams has been successful. His aim has been not so much to have a large number of members, as to have quality of voices represented. The Boys’ Glee Club helps to furnish the music for the Commencement season, and have been busy for some weeks practicing sacred and secular selections for Baccalaureate and Commencement nights.

STORY OF' THE OPERETTA Margarita de Montero. the daughter of a wealthy plantation owner, has just returned home from a finishing school in Madrid. It is fiesta time in Barcelona, and the day of the season's first big bull fight. Margarita meets her friends in the Plaza where they are singing and dancing and lauding the great toreador. Emilio. Three years before, while touring the United States with her parents. Margarita met Lieutenant Harold Wright. It was love at first sight.” but their courtship was soon interrupted by her unexpected return to Spain. Lieutenant Wright goes to Barcelona as custom inspector, and arrives at the time of the annual fiesta. On the day of Margarita’s return from Madrid, as he is walking in the Plaza, he finds a mantilla on which is attached a silver pin. He recognizes it as one he had given her in Washington. They meet when Margarita returns looking for her mantilla, and the old romance is resumed. Lieutenant Wright learns she has become engaged by her parents to a scheming Spanish nobleman, much against her will. He secures the aid of his friends in his efforts to break this engagement, but is opposed by the scheming nobleman and Margarita's ambitious parents. Lieutenant Wright suspects the nobleman, who is chief inspector for the Spanish government. as being responsible for certain alleged conditions existing at the custom house. He begins an investigation that leads to surprising discoveries. The scenes that follow lead up to a climax in the third act revealing the true character of the nobleman. He pleads for mercy through Margarita’s parents, which is granted after a promise to release her from the old engagement. All ends well as wedding b?lls proclaim Margarita’s engagement to Lieutenant Wright. Back row: Renshaw, Morrow, Plummer. Jones. Lewis. Harper. Price. Callahan. Front row Wetzel. Pittenger. Jona;.

During these five years, it has shown a marked increase in numbers and. owing to the patience and tireless efforts of the director. D. H. Williams, it has also increased much in proficiency. Each year a different and more difficult course of study has been pursued. The Orchestra was on hand at various school functions during the year, and never failed to render appropriate music in a very commendable manner. “Respect the Gods! But have as little as possible to do with them. —Confucius The Hi-Y Club Willard Willis Charles Callahan Mr. Jenkins Ben Rhodes Judson Webb Edgar Braley Ardyce Bowling Donald Ervin Bob Price Roger Pierpont Fred James Franklin Sellers I.ou Goddard Hiram Callahan Edwin Angel Paul Hogan Edwin Harper William Patterson Kermit Saltsman Herbert Kesinger ■ Back row: James.

Its purpose is to boost all scholastic and athletic activities in the school. The membership is made up of the most capable students in the high school: the class presidents, presidents of all the organizations, cheer leaders, editor of The X-Ray and the Hi-Timcs. honor students, and letter boys and girls. When the club was organized. Donald Wortman was elected president, and Miss Maxwell, advisor. Of the many things that Boosters have accomplished, the most out standing are the publication of the Parent Day and Tournament programs, the printing of the boys' and girls basketball schedules, and the campaign put on for the selling of badges for the Jackson Wellston football game. They have succeeded in living up to their constitution, by boosting all events of the school year. Back row: Lcwi . King. Ervin. Hamer. Lewis. Lavendar. 3rd row: Thorne. Hudson. Day. Gilliland.

That six years could tell of Mishna’s evolution from an uncertain start as a trial concern to an absolute reality. This oldest of the school families was organized in 1 922. for the purpose of studying litciature and piomcting the friendship and welfare of its members. Its membership has restrictions, and only a few persons are selected each year. During the first three years, its members were selected from Senior and Junior dasss only. But since then, the underclassmen arc eligible too. This year, faculty advisers were changed, and the constitution was revised. The entire club has cooperated and made this year a better one for the Mishna. It must continue to Improve. in future ycais. and will be the duty of future members to sec that the pendulum does not swing back to the club s state of infancy in 1922. Back row: Dando. Jones.

The Cary Literary Society has proven very active the past year. The meetings have increased the interest in good literature, for every Cary girl. The girls have participated and helped boost other activities of W. H. S. One of the largest social events of Wcllston High School was the Cary-Mishna societies' combining for their annual party. The party was held in the auditorium St. Patrick's Eve. Then the girls laid aside intellectual affairs and played hostesses to the faculty and several friends. The Cary Club not only tends to increase the girls' desire for good literature but also friendlier relations among the girls of high school. x- fs,AV Back row: Rogers. Sylvester.

Organized at the end of last year’s school term, it had little chance for advancement, and all action was postponed until this year. However, much remains to be done to make it one of the standardized clubs of the school. All students who are taking commercial courses in the school arc eligible to membership. But. this year, owing to the large number of commercial students, membership was limited to Seniors and Juniors. 4 (J9 £ “The cautious seldom err.'' —Confucius k Mencius was only three years old when he lost hit father, hut his mother worked very hard so that her son might have a good education.

Captain and Quarterback. Wid ha been a real strength in the athletic team of Wellston for the past two years This year as captain of the football team he has given a very creditable account of himself. Excellent judgment on plays, coupled with his ability to run. pass. kick, or what have you.' has made him an indispensable part of this year's team. CARROLL RADER played right tackle this, his first and last year of high school football. Dub was a dependable player both on offense and defense. His best bit of work was in the I ogan game. He was in every line of play of the whole game, getting more tackles than all the rest of the team combined. HOMER ROSE. Right Tackle. Hornbo” wastes no time in preliminaries he wades right in to get his man without wait-ing for the other man to smear him first. A really valuable defensive player, who was a hard sure tackier. Rose did most of the punting this year and on many occasions got off some excellent kicks that kept the ball well in the opponents' territory. He earned the honor given him by the Southeastern League coaches when he was chosen on the first all-team. FOSTER BRYAN. Fullback. This was Foster's second year on the team and bis work this year has been of immeasurable value. Bryan excells at carrying the ball, and at this he was used consistently. He likes to play football and this is one of the big reasons why he was in nearly every minute of play, and really in' it. too. JOE LUCAS. Right Guard. When Joe got his red hair spirit going he was able to take care of him'.elf against any competition. He was in nearly every minute of every game. This was Joe's first year as a regular but he soon caught the spirit of the game and was there fighting at all times. GLEN MARTIN. End. Big is a good football player. He demonstrated this on many occasions. He looked especially good this year going down under punts, and nailing the re ceiver before he got started. Martin was on the receiving end of several nice passes, in this way boosting the score of the team. WILLIAM PATTLRSON. righc halfback on the 19 27 team. is one of the smallest men who ever won a letter for meritorious grid work for Wellston High School. It has proven true here that Good goods come in small package;: for Bill was in every game and was never withdrawn on account of injury. A small man must be smart, and this will be his big asset next year when he fills the role of captain of the team, a position which the team members have so wisely chosen for him. KVAir.K l'll:IU’UM broke into the back field line up this, his first year of football. With this years’ experience to start with next season Rog will be one of the main cogs in a light, fast and experienced back field. Roger has a good physique, determination and nerve to spare. He does his work in the way he is taught. Loafing and grumbling are two things that he docs not do. HIRAM CALLAHAN, a new and valuable find, played his first game for Wellston against Pomeroy and was the star of the game on offense. A clever passer, kicker, and open field runner. If Hiram can gather a little more speed by next fall, he should be a sensation of the league. EDGAR BRALEY was meant for an end. and at this position he gave a good account of himself. Snagging passes and general offensive play were his chief work. Ed was called on regularly throughout the season to stand much of the brunt of the defense of one side of the line, and he did it in a commendable way. BOB YOUNG, a veteran at guard, was in the game up to his ears every minute. One of the things Bob likes to do is play football, and this he did. Bob was handicapped a part of the season with an injured knee, but was always anxious to get in the game even when he could barelv get around. Another year of service awaits Bob. and next year's team is fortunate in this. FRED JAMES played about as regularly as it is possible to do. No one else was trained for the position of Center, and there was no need for anyone else. Freddy was a strong defensive player and proved this by his work in every game. He’s so small that he can just barely snap the ball back between his legs, yet he played against men and got results. Fred will be a senior next year. EDWIN ANGEL was called in when gaps began to appear in the line. “Skinny war a good lighter, and made a good chow ing whenever cent in. It is unfortunate for Edwin that he does not get to come back another year and win a letter. And. it is indeed a big loss to the squad to lose him by graduation. MARION DOWNARD surprised everyone at his sudden development into a football player. Due to his inexperience he made a better showing on defence than offense. Marion is only a Sophomore and was one of the largest members of the squad. Marion has the one most important quality of a good plaver a love for the game. DONALD WORTMAN possesses unusual football ability. Hoge” plays any po.ition in the back field equally well. He can kick, carry the ball and block with equal facility. Wortman plays football in a scientific manner and was perhaps the best open-field tackier on the squad. Wellston High School loses a good athlete when Donald graduates in May. PAUL HOGAN played at end and in the back-field. Hogan is fast, aggressive and versatile in his play. This was his first year on the team, and he is a Sophomore. He is a good athlete and will certainly be a strong member of next year's eleven. JAMES GOODING divided his time between quarter back and left end. Jim deserves a great deal of credit for his deter- mination and persistence in staying out for the full four years, and finally winning his letter. Small, but with plenty of nerve and a willingness to do his best under all circumstances. CARLTON BROOKS. Manager. The work of a manager is usually not taken very seriously by many. But those who are in charge of the teams, and the teams themselve; will tell you that it is not such an easy task. Carlton filled the bill by being on the job at all times and doing his work with will ingnes . 12 2 LEONARD C. HEINRICHS Leonard C. Heinrichs, the Wcllston High School athletic coach, is a graduate of Denison University, where he was very prominent in athletic affairs. Mr. Heinrichs was. unfortunately, handicapped by a shoulder which became dislocated easily and which kept him out of football and basketball. However, as a high hurdler, he had no equal in the Ohio Conference last year. He was mentioned by W. J. Griffith, writing in The Athletic Journal. as one of the outstanding collegiate high hurdlers of the nation. During his senior year at Denison, he was assistant freshman coach. Mr. Heinrichs is sincerely interested in Wellston High and her athletic position: and to this end he has put forth much untiring effort. He has turned out splendid teams, considering a sad lack of material, and has developed, in his teams, a wonderful spirit of loyalty and co-operation A A poor boy named Kwang Hung was Very fond of books, and loved to study; but his poverty prevented him from being able to purchase oil for his lamp, and he had no light. He worked for a magistrate who. at Kwang Hung's own request paid him in books instead of money, and no one u’ai ever more delighted with his wages. Yet the books were of little use to the boy. for he was too poor to buy oil for hts lamp at night. At last he thought of an idea. His next- door neighbor had lights, and so Kwang Hung made a little hole in the wall, and by moving his book backward and forward in front of the hole he caught the tight that came through the hole, and was able to go on with his studies. When the examinations were held he went up With others, and so distinguished himself that his case was brought before the emperor, who gave him a high appointment. and finally Kwang Hung became prime minister of the Chinese Empire.

Captain, guard, forward, center. When called upon to do so he played each position with equal efficiency and with all the vim and pep of his impetuous nature. Captain Wortman is a good man. and his absence, because of graduation, will be a blow to next year’s team. BEN RHODES 'Ben.' If he were as fast as he is long he would indeed be a whiz.'’ If Ben takes up sprinting this summer, and continues to develop as he has the past season, he will make someone hustle to beat him out. Illness the past year interfered and kept Ben out of several games. FRED JAMES ■Duck.” is just as short as Ben is long, and he's just as fast as Ben is slow’. If Ercd had Ben s height, or Ben had Fred's speed, what a combination that would be. Fred is a dandy guard, fast, a ball hawk, and plays with his head as well as with his hands and feet. WILLARD WILLIS ”Wid'' is one of the best forwards in the league, and. had he not been out of several games, because of injuries, the results might have been victories instead of defeats. Willis plays offense and defense with equal effectiveness and will make a worth-while addition to some college team. HIRAM CALLAHAN Hi.’' A regular forward most of the season, played sensationally at times, but had occasional relapses when his wrork wras not so good. Hiram has the natural ability and. w ith a good season back of him. will go big next season. He wras honored with the captaincy for next year. KERMI I SALTSMAN Jim’' is one who. through force of circumstances, has found himself adorning the bench at starting time during most of the past season. Saltsman. however, was always ready and gave a good account of himself when put in the game, and added much to the strength of the team. EDWARD WILLS ■Ed. Wills was seen at center a good deal during the first and middle parts of the season. At this position he displayed real basketball ability and. with two more years ahead of him. should develop into a real star. KEITH FILE Fifey” gets honorable mention as assistant manager. Keith was always on the job. doing the many necessary things for the comfort of the team and visitors, and was rewarded with a letter last year and numerals this year. CHARLES CALLAHAN Charlie has occupied the role of utility player and has done a mighty good job of it. Charlie gave the best he had for the team, and was never found sulking because someone else had the regular call. There is a trite expression in athletics that A team is no stronger than its substitutes. and. with Callahan a Senior this year, that job is going to be a mighty hard one to fill for next year's team. ROGER PIER PONT Rog” saw considerable service the past season which will serve him well as a seasoning process for next year’s battles. Worked at forward or guard, he showed car marks of real ability, and will be heard of when the whistle blows for the start of hostilities next winter. PAUL HOGAN was promoted from the substitute list to become a regular at the close of the season. Paul failed by a narrow margin to earn a letter, but he has two more years in which to make his maik and earn the coveted varsity W. Back row: Morrow. S. Hudson. Thorne. Marlin. Plummer.

Tournament! Who won the tournament? We—with a capital letter which spells Wellston. When the girls dashed out on the floor, we doubted not that the cup would be ours—even wondered why they hadn't had it engraved for us. Later, things began to happen to make Jackson happy and to start the tears trickling for Wellston. All is lost!” the doubters shouted, but the loyal captain and crew did not give up the game. Energy returned’ Spirits revived! And with Margaret making circles all around her opponents, and the other girls carrying out Captain Hudson’ orders to the letter, how could Fate have decreed other than in our favor. With the final Jackson score 31-27. and with Hamden and Oak Hill out of the way. the famous cup in our permanent possession, you'll pardon us. if we do a little boasting about Coach Maxwell and our girls. We honestly cannot refrain from it. Then let’s shake the roof with a hearty Rah!” for. after all. it’s a good old basketball world we’re living in. DARLENE WORTMAN. center guard, although many times forced to guard a person far over her size. is. perhaps, the most consistent player on the team. At the very outset of the season her position on the court was changed from forward to guard. She held this position regularly during the entire season excepting the tournament when she became disabled. Future teams will undoubtedly depend upon Darlene and her ability. ALMA BELLOMY was shifted from her forward position to center at the middle of the season. Her remarkable steadiness is always in evidence, and her two years of training have developed good teamwork and strength. Her speed shows improvement, as well as her basket tossing, which has surpassed the high standard set last year. JESSIE LUCAS is a guard. Basketball fans of other towns have enthusiastically praised her outstanding work. Sometimes she is prone to leave her man a little too far behind, yet she always manages to capture the ball in the critical moment. Jessie was allowed to show her technique at forward and displayed her value there. She will play two more years for Wcllston. MARJORIE HARPER, forward, is one of the team’s most brilliant players. She shoots fouls with no seeming effort, and her quick pivoting and ability to leave her guard are invaluable. She was at first handicapped through lack of height and weight, but she now. apparently, has every requisite and talent needed by a basketball player. CLAUDINE HUDSON, the outgoing captain, has played her last game for Wcllston. Claudinc held a regular position for four years, and her dependability and courage have been the frame for the remarkable success of the whole team. Although she was forced to give up her more outstanding forward position for that of guard, her steady force was still in evidence. CATHERINE DANDO. guard, is the team's choice as pilot for 1929. Three years of actual service prove her ability and her skill, and show that she deserves the captain s berth. Katy’s grit, good passing, and general ability, arc assets which an athlete of standing cannot afford to lose. All success for ’29. Captain! MARGARET TOLBERT, forward, is a speedy player, a good shot, and handles the ball with sureness and strength. She covers the floor with untiring zeal, and when teamed with Harper and Bellomy. is a member of a nearly perfect combination. She has played only one year, yet her ability and skill more than make up for lack of experience. AUDREY GILL, guard. is a senior this year. Audrey has also been willing to come out with the scrubs for two years, and has showed herself worthy of a uniform. She too. has alternated from guard to forward. OPAL DOWNARD. guard, is capable of playing nearly every position. She has improved remarkably this season, and will be a real asset to the future team. Since she has played several quarters in the scheduled games and in the tournament, she has been enabled to show her skill, which will undoubtedly grow better in her remaining two years. This year the much-needed position of girls' manager was created to relieve our hardworking coach of some of her numerous duties. KATHLEEN MORROW was elected to this office by the basketball girls themselves, and has entirely lived up to their confidence in her. She has worked with a faithfulness and loyalty that has won the liking and respect of each member of the basketball squad. Her willingness and ability have been a source of much comfort to Miss Maxwell. She has had her share in the winning of the Jackson-Vinton County Cup! The Tong Yung , a family of eight, were starving to death because of a crop failure. In desperation, the oldest son went to the river and succeeded in catching several small fish, fhs mother cooked them but discovered that there was no salt in the house, hence the fish could not he made edible The entire family sat down to cry. but the eldest son dug a trench through their home, caught the tears and with them salted the fish.

Keith Fife. Class of '28. President's Address Friends and Fellow Students— We are assembled here today, as the graduating class of 1928 to commemorate Class Day Exercises. We. as Seniors, today are looking back upon our years as students in Wells-ton High School, and we see in that past, a well-laid foundation, the resultant of an intellectual broadening, interwoven with the most pleasant memories. Also with our much improved mental vision, we are hopefully looking into the future, to find the goal which our ambitions might lead us to attain. Past opportunities, for which we are grateful, were given us through the efforts of our parents and faculty. We heartfully thank you for these benefits. Our future opportunities are dependent entirely upon us as individuals. May our results give evidence proving the fruitfulness of those efforts. It is our belief that the Junior Class fully realizing their responsibilities, will endeavor to uphold the standards and traditions as we have so endeavored. In behalf of the graduating Senior Class, I welcome you to our Class Day Exercises. Lou Goddard. President of Class of ’28. Junior Response Members of the Class of ’28 and Friends: In behalf of the class of 1929 it is my privilege to bring to you. our heartiest congratulations for your achievements during the past four years. We cannot express our appreciation for your cooperation and good will during the three years of our association, and we hope that next year we may merit the same admiration that you have received. It is with deepest regrets that we see you leave, yet. we hope that we are worthy to fill the place of leadership left by you. Again, we wish you much happiness and success in your future life and work. Hiram Callahan, President of Class of ’29. Class History 1928 September 15. 1924. saw the opening of a new era for one hundred seventeen thoroughly frightened boys and girls, who were beginning their high school career. This class was the first to open their high school years in the new building. After being duly and unduly initiated in various ways by upper classmen, and our everyday names supplemented by the epitaph of freshie. ' we were permitted to consider ourselves as part of the school, and were expected to do our share in every way to make it a good one. which we have faithfully tried to do. Two new subjects were introduced this year—Manual Training for boys and Home Economics for the girls. These courses attracted large classes. Other subjects for F:rcshmen were: Latin. Algebra, with English. Hygiene. Civics. General Science, and Occupations compulsory. After we were well launched upon our new profession, we assembled one day. having decided that we should organize if we intended to be a progressive class. Keith Life was elected president: Ruth Melvin vice president: Donald Ervin secretary-treasurer: and Mr. Boster as sponsor. When the Sophomore season opened, several of our former classmates were missing, but those remaining went bravely on. This year Foster Bryan was our president. Ruth Melvin vice-president. Alene Wills secretary, and Berthamae Merrill treasurer. It was about this time that a little doubt began to assert itself—that perhaps after all. we didn't know quite as much as our teachers. Having reached this important conclusion, we progressed much better. Some of us were fighting desperate battles with Caesar, others were having an equally difficult time with French, all were undergoing the horrors of Medieval History. The prospects the third year were more promising, and things started smoothly along, but not for long. Once more an election for class officers was held with these results: Charles Callahan as president. Foster Bryan vice-pivsidcnt. Alice Mae Cartwright secretary. Claudine Hudson treasurer, and Miss Jackson. Faculty advisor. Immediately following this, plans had to be begun for the Junior-Senior. Our chief difficulty was lack of funds. Something had to be done. Every Junior paid his dues. This was not sufficient. A benefit movie was given. The Great Gatsby.” and this helped a great deal. Further aid was received when Jackson Glee Clubs presented Pickles’' benefitting our class. But misfortunes never come singly. We now had to fight battles, behead kings, learn all about Home Rule in Ireland, and describe absentee landlordism. With the coming of spring, many of us made our first appearance at a formal function—the long-dreamed-of reception. Everything proceeded well, and the year closed with the satisfaction of at least giving a Junior-Senior equal in all respects to any of its predecessors, and our proud title of “Senior.” And now comes the last and most important of our high-school years.—the summary of our four year of struggles, sorrows, and successes. Early in the year, the class organized with Lou Goddard president. Charles Callahan vice-president. Alene Wills secretary. Claudine Hudson treasurer, and Miss George sponsor. Our hardest task this year was the publication of The X Ray. Funds for this purpose were raised by the Senior Carnival, and the selling of candy at the basketball games, and also the movie Les Miserables. This year all Seniors studied American History. American Government, and English litera ture. We of the negative maintain that Hamlet was insane, all proof of the affirmative to the Perhaps our classmates can better tell us if we have made a success of our school life as individuals. but in regard to our success as a class, we are unanimous. contrary. Helen McCarley. Class Prophecy Thump! Boom! Hiss! sputtered the radio in its agony of static. Just signing off now. WLZ Broadcasting Station. Chicago. Good night'' and the voice of the broadcaster trailed away-leaving the scratchy, weird noises that can come only from a radio. Tired and sleepy. I leaned back in my chair and sat musing of days gone by. Suddenly rousing, however. 1 ad justed the radio picture screen that now accompanys all radios and searched at random for a station. Cat squalls, hissings, screcchings. and long diawn-out whistles were the fruits of my efforts. Disgusted. I again leaned back in my chair, and was nearly asleep, when, through a feeling of haziness. I heard a clear voice say. Station ZML now announcing, please.” and cn the screen above the radio appeared the well-known face of Anna Lou Edwards. How queer that she should become a radio announcer with that small weak voice we used to wonder at! Her image is fading all too soon, and in its place appears a Broadway show. The curtain is rising, and Topsy and Eva appear. I nearly fall over when Goldyne Parrish acting the part of little Eva and Mildred Platte in the role of Topsy come to the front of the stage and fall over the footlights. Their act proves a success and they answer no less than sixty-eight and one half curtain calls. I hear a voice say Bravo! Encore! Now say. don't you know, old topper.” The stage vanishes and a box scat comes into view. There sits the millionaire. Homer Rose, in evening clothes and silk hat. holding a monocle in one hand, and with the other throwing carloads of buttercups and dandelions to the two bewitching actresses. Becoming engrossed and excited with these happenings. 1 tunc in on station after station, with these results: The National Wheelbarrow Luxury Works now appear. Amid the rum bling of the shops 1 sec Alma Rowe in overalls. She has invented a wheelbarrow sport car. selling at $2.98 f. o. b. Zaleski. Next Berlin X-Roads appear. Through the ear-splitting noise, a voice cries Long live the King and Queen of Berlin.” and. on two horses of silver ride Her Majesty Queen Alice, and the Imperial King Charles Foster. Behind them rides the Court Jester. Leo Simmons. Their Chief Cook and Bottle Washer. Agnes Lewis, is there too. A giant shoe is now on the screen. At one of the doors appears Anna Reed, the wife of Donald Ervin. True to tradition, she has so many children that she doesn't know just what to do. However, they will have to move, because the shoe is going to pieces, and Donald will have to make another one using shoes from Mr. Reese's for a pattern. A race track scene follows. Around the curve come the horses, panting and straining on the home stretch. The race is won. and the famous jockey. Bobbie Price riding a wooden horse, gets the prize. One after another my class mates appear. In varying scenes, and in varying manners.—all speaking and acting as they did long years ago. Here is Evangeline Davis, world famous as a result of her wonderful trip to Saturn in a wash-tub. Here is Ruth Corn, a renowned medium. Perhaps her outstanding characteristic is the outrageous prices which she charges. The next scene is in a lunatic asylum. Among the hopelessly insane is found poor Helen Stewart, who employs all her time in making paper skeletons. Her keeper. Gerald Collins says she has been as mad as a March Hare ever since she failed to make apples grow upside down. The succeeding picture is that of a railroad station. A locomotive is puffing on the rails. The engineer’s sooty face pops out of the cab window and I recognize Carroll Rader. Among the passengers are three somewhat familiar faces. Immediately I know that these salesmen with their huge sample cases can be no others than Mary Patrick. Helen Gentry, and Lucille Ramsey. From their conversation I find that they are traveling for the Dead and Buried Co., and that their specialty is brass tacks. What a queer looking building! Now a woman comes out of a door and starts up the side of this skyscraper. She is turning her face to me now. Ah. it is Grace Moore. Queen of human flies: She is doing her daily dozen on her favorite building. Yet another picture! It is a street in Columbus. Ohio. A man shuffles into view, rolling a push-cart over the cobblestones. Fresh Fish' Caught two weeks ago. Fresh fish!” and I instantly recognize the voice of Carl Brooks. I hear a warning whistle and Carl side-steps just in time to escape the wheels of a bread and waffle wagon driven by Alene Wills. I can hardly believe it is she. because her hair is cut like a boy’s and she wears a pair of large white gloves. I agree with Carl. He did have a narrow escape. Next, a body of water appears. A giant ship steams into view. Closer and closer it comes until I can distinguish someone leaning over the rail of the deck. It is a pirate resplendent in brass rings and cutlasses. Under the red silk handkerchief covering the head I see Helen McCarley. the renowned successor of Captain Kidd. Near her. pinned to the deck by knives in their cars, arc her captives. Skinny” Angel and Judd Webb. It seems that she is a man-hater, and takes only men captives. Her latest capture she does not deem worthy of a ransom, and so she is torturing them inch by inch until they die. Picture after picture comes on the screen. The next one shows Dr. Audrey Gill, with her latest invention, a fur-lined bathtub, and a harness for straightening the spines of jelly-fish: Wilma Lavender in jail for misrepresenting herself to the public. She used to have red hair, but during an exciting scene at a movie, she pulled all her hair off. She is really quite bald headed. Here too. is Kermit Saltsman. sent up on a charge of bootlegging. However, this is an accident. He says that he bought some apples and put them in his Ford, preparatory to going home. The roads were so rough that when he reached home, he found that the apples had been jolted into cider. The Sheriff of Vinton County. Arnold Helm, smelled it and had him arrested. Hence the jail sentence. The latest picture is a farm scene, but what an unusual one. Queer looking bumps are on the ground, but the mystery is solved when Leroy Bierhup pulls one of these things up. It is an umbrella. He says he can raise any kind from a red. white and blue one to one having arms and legs. In the next picture is Isabel Compston. But how changed she is. I learn that she is a widow, owing to the fact that she fed her husband canned salmon for a month, and. thinking he was a fish, he jumped in the lake and drowned. He left only his insurance policy to con sole her. Now Claudinc is seen. She is a cowgirl, and besides a western girl's daily routine, she lights the fires every morning in the underground caves at National Park. This is done to deceive tourists who come to see the hot springs. Hetty Lewis now comes to view. She is champion bubble blower and catcher of grasshoppers. At the present time, she has three million grass-hoppers to her credit. Now I see a peculiar character. Twelve feet high this person stands. He has whiskers two and one-half feet long, and wears number twelve shoes. Who is it? The giant speaks a well-known word ■ foot'' and I know him to be Lou Goddard. He says that during school days his knowledge weighed him down, but soon after graduation, he began to grow and hasn't stopped since. Next comes Charlotte and Glen Martin. They have been married for two years and are still on their honeymoon. They were in such a hurry that they forgot to leave their diplomas at home, but have carried them all over the world. Next comes Lddie Joseph. He too. is married and is living in Florida. His chief occupa tion is teaching alligators to do the Lime House Limp. Wonders of wonders! Charles Callahan in overalls! But why this attire? It seems that Charles is a wealthy man owing to his murderous habits. He is champion fly-swatter of the U.S.A. Now comes Ruth Lambert and Kermit Mack. They are the respective candidates for president and vice-president on the Royal Order of Billygoats ticket. Keith Fife appears. He is the greatest of all bill posters. To date, he has a record of being able to post sixty-five bills in two seconds. Jim Gooding now enters into the situation. He proves to be a famous engineer. His most famous job centers around the turning of the Milky Way to stone. Becoming heavy, it fell on Pennsylvania Avenue and now that street is paved—thanks to James. Here are Ruth Melvin and Foster Bryan, but they are living peculiar lives. They are devoting their untiring efforts trying to find out where the holes go when you bite a doughnut, and why an owl says “who. “Wid Willis is a polo player. He has more falls to his credit than the Prince of Wales ever thought of having. Ruth Wilson is a finger print expert for the Door Knob and Door Jamb Co. She has the finger prints of every boy under ten years of age that ever stole a cookie. Now comes “Hoge’’ Wortman. He is on Keith’s Circuit. Perhaps his most outstanding qualities are his frog imitations and his ability to sit on a sharp tack for a whole minute. The pictures arc nearing an end. Each succeeding one grows dimmer and dimmer. I his picture now showing is hardly discernablc. but it is a true one. On a thin girder of black steel, clear cut against the sky. sits Joe Lucas. He is mopping his hot face with his bandana handkerchief and eating corned beef and cabbage out of a tin bucket. He is finishing now and stoop6 to put down his bucket. It falls! Thump! What is this? Where am I? My feet are asleep, my eyes heavy. Looking at the clock. I find that four hours have passed. Surely no broadcasting station would still be entertaining. I approach the radio and it is turned off. Certainly. I had seen some pictures on the screen! Did I actually see those things, or did I dream it. Who can tell? Berthamae Merrill.
