Student: Feel? Oh, just about as usual, I don't think much about gradua- tion. I'll be glad to get away from Fairmont, but I'm really sorry high school is over. I've had a darn good time here. Socrates: As you look back on your high school years, what strikes you as the most important thing you've gotten out of Fairmont? Student: That's easy. It's friends. I've made a whole bunch of wonderful friends here, and they're more important than studies. or anything else. Socrates: I suppose you think your class is better than all the rest, don't you? Student: Well, it's a good class. I don't know whether it's better than any other, but, then, I haven't seen many others. We have a great class in some ways. We have a couple of famous men in our class. Socrates: Who, for example? Student: Well, Frank Reed got married: Patsy Tork was a good athlete: Brady Knight played football and basketball four years and was captain of basketball in '25. Socrates: HYes. But is athletics the biggest thing in high school? Student: Well, it's not the biggest thing, perhaps, but it is very important these days. All fall, you don't think of anything but football, and in the spring-well, it's some other sport. Socrates: 'lThat's the trouble with high school. Too much athletics. I-Iaven't you any student that has done big things in other ways? Student: O, yes, we've got people in literary things like The Latin Club and The Torch Club, and we have students in Dramatics Club and the Culee Club. We even have a couple of debaters, but nobody cares much about them. Socrates: All classes have people in things like that. What's your class done that has been distinctive? Student: We put on the best Junior Prom. in the Fairmont Hotel that Fair- mont ever saw. And then we had the Junior play-but nothing need be said about it. Socrates: Even that wasn't permanent. Student: Well, when you come right down to it, I suppose we haven't done an awful lot. The history of our Class is really only the history of the Page 45 ll ' ll6lPl.6LGflUE3Z ' K 'Kill high school while we have been here. Our class hasn't done much in itself. Socrates: What has happened worth remembering in the history of the high school during the last four years? Student: We got a new gymnasium, for one thing. Socrates: Anything else? Student: Well, high school life has had it's ups and downs. We've had our fads, Shifters and Gobblers-and now the Charleston. Socrates: Oh, yes. That's all true enough. But you've missed the point. VN'hat high school has done for you and your class is to weed out the students that weren't felt-that couldn't stand the pace. You started with one hundred eighty-four. Now there are only one hundred thirty-five. That shows what has happened. You are the essence that is left after a severe fractional distillation. You have been getting ready for your future. Your history hasn't started yet. You're just beginning life. What you do in the years to come is the history of the class of 1926. It will be made by what you and your classmates do from now on. It won't be finished until you are all dead and gone, and really not until you are forgotten. Do you see the point? Student: Yes, I do. Socrates: Well, if you love your class, and Fairmont, you should try to make that history a great history, make it something worth being remembered. ,llillll I if W' ll, ..

As the gym was not being! used the new students found it to be a very desirable place to park their Kiddie Kars. The upper class- ALLCWQJA man experienced many hilarious moments watching the new ar- rivals rushing helplessly through the halls in a vain attempt to Hnd their class- rooms. It was apparent that they were enjoying their annual bath in the noted creek, and one could see by merely glancing at them, how utterly de- lighted they were to be a part of such a large organization as the High School. Never before has a Freshman Class been more promising, and Fairmont High School is depending on them to accomplish many things. Their oflicers and Student Council representatives are all worthy of the positions they hold. and through their efforts and wise guidance the class should make a success. The Freshmen have not had many opportunities to show what they can do, but Fairmont High School is expecting a lot from them in the future. gllreslqmztn fthflisnria Miss HUNsAKER Miss BEVANS Miss SMITH Miss CONN Miss HUSTEAD Miss BILLINGSLEA Page 77 ln.

Sophomore 3 'ugiffl-fl 5 ORA O'MALLEY was the Clarke's cook. Of course Nora and the it W6 13 'q. cop were on good terms, or else this story might never have been W Il l written ? l'Shhh, Jack cried. Throw your suitcase down to me. She ' t 'L T obeyed. Jack Neill was Barbara's Hance, but no one knew it, They were going to elope that very night, All that day they were very nervous and absent- minded, but finally it was night and here Jack was ready to take Barbara to Greenburg. A ladder had been set at the side of the window, and here was his own sweet little Barbara coming down the ladder. She did it so well, or so it seemed to Jack. that one would think she had been used to climbing down ladders at four o'clock in the morning. They hurried around the house and out into the street, and both breathed a sigh of relief. Oh, me darlin', I could niver live without ye,, Pat O'Hara, What? shouted Jack, Pat O'Hara. Great guns, couldn't he, Jack Neill, even get married without getting the cook mixed up in it? Jack was nineteen, and thought his Dad and Mother narrow-minded be- cause they refused to sanction his marriage to Barbara Clarke, Yes, he thought he was old enough to be married. Barbara was seventeen, and her parents were just as narrow-minded as Jack's. They were getting tired of this parental restriction. so thought they would end their troubles by marrying. And now this. Nora O'Malley, what are you doing out here at this time o'morning? I thought you were moi Pat, she sobbed. 'iWell, you had better go right into the house and go to bed. She reluctantly left him and entered the house as quietly as a cat, which was unusual for Nora. Why did Nora O'Malley have to pick this of all nights to get married? Well, anyway, he determined to try again. He stole softly back to the rose-trellis, and whispered, Barbara No answer. Then a little louder, Barbara This time he was relieved to see the window thrown open and to hear Barbara's sweet voice answer, Jackie, dear, l'm ready. Here's my suitcase. Be sure and catch it. l And. for the second time that night, he caught a suitcase packed by a person ready to sail on the deep matrimonial seas. With much difliculty, Barbara finally got down the rose-trellis. They went stealthily, even cat-like, out to the street. Oh, horrors! There was Bab's brother, Bob, just returning from a sorority dance. She knew he would make unpleasant inquiries, and, as she knew she could invent something to tell him, she ran forward to meet him with the following story: Oh, Bob, Pat O'Hara, Nora's fiance, was shot by a horrid old burglar and Mama sent me to the drug store to have this prescription filled. Now Bob, on the other hand, had just seen Pat hurrying down an alley, acting very mysteriously and carrying a suitcase. However, Babs seemed to Page 80 ,N A. ..., Wifi' l B aetcsttnfevesi i EH convince him that something terrible had happened, and he nearly scared his Mother and Dad out of their wits, when he entered the house shouting: Who's shot? Luckily, by this time Babs and Jack were out of sight. When Barbara and Jack reached the station they thought that all was well. It was. until they were on the train. The conductor was coming down the aisle calling at the top of his voice: Telegram for Barbara Clarke. She was then seized with two sudden impulses, one, to ask for the telegram and the other not to. Finally she decided to ask for it, but not to open it until they were married. The conductor handed her the telegram 'mid the stares of the passengers. Barbara tried to look at them scornfully, but must have made a sorry attempt, for the passengers kept on staring. Everything went along smoothly for an- other half hour until-Barbara's aunt was seen coming down the aisle directly toward them. Barbara grasped convulsively at her heart, and gave Jack a sharp kick on his shins, so he would notice her aunt coming toward them. He pre- pared to give her some good excuse for their presence upon the train. Aunt Cornelia was a tall, thin person, who looked as though she had just partaken of a green persimmon. She was as prim as a china astor, She nodded cooly at Jack and condescended to give Barbara a perfunctory kiss upon her cheek. She then said: Babs, dear, I didn't know that you were going to take a trip, Where are you going, dear? And, why are you with this young man? Barbara swallowed hard and said: Oh, Aunt Cornelia, we are going to a house party at Greensborough. You know Margaret Ryan is giving a house party for her college chums, as she is soon leaving for France. Oh, how strange. I just left Margaret in Newtonsburg, and she informed me that she was going to a sanitariumf' With that she left them, leaving behind only an icy start. If there was anyone she detested it was a liar. Barbara nearly left Jack sitting there alone, because as men always do, he wouldn't say a word when she needed him to. Now Barbara's aunt would be sure to leave all of her millions to Bob. The rest of the journey, with the exception of the last half hour, was spent silently looking from the window. They were both very nervous and jumped at any little noise. Barbara was very restless and kept asking if it wasn't nearly time to get off. At last they arrived at Cireenburg. Jack hailed a taxi and ordered the driver to drive to the courthouse. The driver gave a little short laugh and started toward it. It seemed as though he was going as slow as he possibly could, but Iinally they arrived. They entered the courthouse and found the marriage license bureauf With much blushing and stammering they secured the license. Next, they were off to the minister's. Barbara nearly forgot to answer the vows, but it was finally ended. They were married. Barbara then opened her purse, and seeing the telegram, opened it: it read: Barbara, will consent to your marrying Jack if you will have a quiet home wedding. Mother. Page 81 .,,,.Q iii? -fl-W t AP' tc5c.cn'vc5i c Z fill Iaamelzfz jlllzm By LILLIAN HUFFMAN, Sophomore AMELA COPELAND, her maiden aunt of uncertain years. Miss Q America Copeland, a second cousin by marriage, Martha Payson, and her sister, Belle, had been aboard the steamer, Lancaster, three days. Pamela seemed to be immune to any such contagion as t ' seasickness. Not so her worthy escorts. They had long since suc- cumbed and were suffering in the throes of awful agony. Pam was on the upper deck beside the railing looking out at the rolling blue sea. She had not been standing there long, however, when she had an uncanny feeling of being watched. She turned her head and gazed into a pair of gray eyes belonging to a handsome young man. The man said: I am William Ashly, Jr. I have seen, by the passenger list, that you are Miss Pamela Copeland. Pamela's smile was a credit to Miss America's exhibition of how she used to overwhelm the minds of young Beau Brummels, and William Ashly, Jr.. straightway became her devotee: however, her smile was puzzling. When Pamela went below she found her Aunt America in a much improved state, and so she expounded: Aunt America, he looks so familiar! I could swear I've seen him before! He has big, gray eyes that must have come from Ireland! She talked more of the saintly, heavenly, divine Mr. Ashly, When she retired and after many sighs fell asleep to dream of-Mr. William Ashly, Jr. The next morning found Miss America sufficiently recovered fromv her affliction to go on deck. It is more than probable that curiosity played a lead- ing role in her recovery. The two ladies dined with Mr. Ashly, and thereafter they talked inces- santly of him. It is little wonder that Belle Payson and Martha were made so keenly aware of his presence that sea-sickness left them and they went to view this demi-god. Their opinion accorded with those of Pamela and Miss America. They were agreed that they had seen him before. As Belle put it: I feel that in another incarnation, I was a princess and he my consort. After this bold speech there was general sighs and suspicious glances. At last they broached the subject to him. Mr Ashly, haven't we met you before? queried Pamela. I'm sure your face is familiar! A'Er-why, I-I daresay you have-uh-seen me before. Er-I used to appear in public very often. In what capacity? asked Belle. Why-I'd rather not speak of it at present. I'm sorry we've intruded on private affairs, stated Pamela in a slight frigid tone. Mr. Ashly bowed stifily, and after a slight pause in the conversation, Belle and Martha, murmuring something about a beauty sleep, went below. Miss America soon followed, leaving Pamela and William the benefit of a full moon. But this favor Pam declined to accept, and so she, too, retired. Page 82 ...R . ' V,,yJ,,, l .nur ' ll I -W metettmves will The following day Pam took her Aunt America into her confidence, saying: Aunty, don't you think Mr. Ashly is divine? Miss America was conscious of a slightly increased tempo of her heart-beat, but she answered in a condescending tone: He's a very nice young man. But to herself she was saying: Divine? That is too mild to put it. He is a veritable Apollo. Pam continued: It is so mysterious about his seeming so familiar to us all. I wonder who he is, really. That evening a slight fog arose and the passengers of the Lancaster as- sembled on the lower deck. They were sitting in groups discussing politics, stock markets, scandal and clothes. Pam had already grown bored with such talk, and Mr. Ashly wasn't there anyway. He could have held one spellbound talking about the weather. She slipped quietly away and ascended to the upper deck. and, seeing the familiar ligure of William Ashly, Jr., she gave a melodramatic sneeze, which sounded real to listening ears. William came and escorted her to a steamer chair. After a few moments, he concluded that Pam's scarf was too thin for com- fort, and he calmly placed his arm around her shoulders. Pam, could youL? No, Mr. Ashly, I could not! She stated this in her most haughty air. No, I could not. Considering the mystery around you-well, it is hardly to be expected! Before William could say one word Aunt America came upon the scene with Belle and Martha. He hastily made a place for the ladies to sit, and after a few moments, went below. A stiff and awkward silence ensued. At last, Aunt America spoke in calm. subdued tones: Captain Trexler says we shall land before tomorrow evening. The ladies took this calmly enough: Pam sighed, bit her lip, and said: I'm glad. It's been such a long, tiresome voyage. At least one lady present thought: How can the child tell such falsehoods? With a few more words they went to their respective cabins. The next day everyone on board was in a hurry preparing to land. Pam did not see Mr. Ashly again until they had come in sight of land. It was a queer meeting. Mr. Ashly seemed nonplussed: Pam was plainly embarrassed. They spoke, but it was a formal, rather curt salutation. Ten seconds and it was over. Miss America, who was standing beside Pamela, greeted him with a more friendly word and then he had gone, Suddenly a man in uniform said: All off. and so they passed out of sight of Mr. Ashly. The four ladies went back to their home and appeared to forget the voyage. One day Pam went to the post-office for any letters there might be for her. There was only a magazine. This she took home and slowly scanned the pages. At last she saw a picture, an advertisement, Mr. Ashly's face! When Miss America came in she found that she had fainted. When Pam became conscious, she whispered in her aunt's ear: He's the Arrow Collar Man. Page 83 lLZ.

I guess you'll hang around for a while yet. Ric was a lad of about eighteen, and had come to New London recently. He had helped a group of boys to persuade their parents to let them use the old Shackleford cabin for a club house. The day before our story opens the boys had gained their parents' consent, and had worked some about the cabin to get it in order for their use. Ric had the key, so when the boys came early they had to wait until he came. Finally when he appeared in the distance all the boys were there. He came up to the garden path whistling cheerfully, and as he neared the boys. he said: Promptness is a good thing-sometimes. Well you sure took your good old time coming, grumbled Beans. Ric unlocked the door and stepped inside, paused and then gave a low ex- clamation of surprise. The boys pushed up against him, but the doorway was so small that they couIdn't see around him. What is the matter? demanded Hal, who was the farthest away. Ric stepped aside: the other boys could see inside, and they, too, stopped in surprise. Everything that they had so carefully put in place the night be- fore had been piled neatly in the middle of the floor. Well, I suppose we might as well get to work and clean this place up, Ric said after a pause. The boys set to work and put the articles in their original places. Later, when everything was in order, they held a council of war and decided to stay in the cabin the next night. The meeting then adjourned until evening, but some of the boys were doubtful as to whether it would be all right to leave the cabin or not. The boys left the cabin and went slowly down the path to their homes. All day long a pair of green eyes had watched the boys as they worked, as they had also watched the day before. Beside the green eyes was a pair of brown ones that had watched with a frown, which remained for some time after the boys had left. The boys returned to the cabin just at dusk, when the crickets were be- ginning to chirp and the frogs to croak down by the stream. Later they built a fire in the ire-place, as it was rather cool in the evening. Tell me about 'Old Man Shacklefordf said Ric to Tob. Well, about five years ago a man named 'Shackleford' came to New Lon- don and took a room at the hotel. He stayed there for some time studying flowers that he gathered in the woods. Finally, he bought this cabin, so it was known as 'Shackleford Cabin.' He gathered flowers and planted them in his garden. Pretty soon he had a very nice place, and people came to see it and to visit him. for nearly everyone liked him. One morning some folks called upon him and found him dead. No one ever knew why he was killed. It was thought that he had some money, but not enough for anyone to kill him. He loved his garden so much that some folks say on moonlight nights Page 8.4 I , ii' 1fZIi'14T-'- f u mcstcnvels Pill they have passed near the cabin and seen him in the garden moaning because it is in such bad shape. I don't take much stock in their story myself. Some folks have tried to sleep here, but they have always left before dawn and re- fused to tell what they saw. I don't believe in ghosts myself. Well, I don't either, but let's get to bed. I'm sleepy, said Cy from a dark corner. It must be getting late: we had better turn in, said Ric, and the boys made a dash for their blankets. They rolled up in them, and after a while fell asleep. Along in the wee, small hours of the night Beans began to have bad dreams. Two bright objects appeared in the distance and began to move slowly toward him. On and one they came slowly, but steadily. At last, when they were very close, Beans tried to run, but he was held fast: he could not move. Then the objects stopped, and after pausing a second, they disappeared. Beans rubbed his eyes. Gee, he muttered, I must have been dreaming, and a bad dream at that. That supper I ate sure did have the wrong effect. I don't suppose I'll go back to sleep for a while, so I'll get up. He left his place on the bed and went to the window that over-looked the garden. The moon should be full tonight, and he laughed, but I don't see him. Oh, there he is behind a cloud. He was looking at the sky when he heard a low wailing moan, which seemed to come from the garden. He strangled, gasping frantically for breath as his heart leaped up into his throat and he attempted to swallow it. He leaned near the window and peered into the darkness. As he watched, the moon came near the edge of the cloud and a white figure became visible in the middle of the garden. Old Man Shackleford's Ghost! he gasped and glanced toward his sleeping companions. As he did so he saw two green objects glaring at him from the doorway that led into the kitchen. The moon came out from behind the cloud en- tirely, and he turned his attention to the ghost in the garden. The ghost seemed frightened: Hnally it turned and fled to the shadow of the cabin. That instant it paused in the moonlight was enough for Beans. Hum, he mused, thoughtfully, Now I wonder! He turned and saw that the green eyes had disappeared, so he went to Ric and shook him gently. When he got Ric awake, he said: We have a visitor: let's entertain. Don't make any noise and let's get the other fellows up to see the fun. I've got an idea and I'1l wager it's a good one, too. The other boys were awakened and they all went to the door. Beans divided them into two parts. You go around the cabin to the right and I'll go to the left. Don't let anyone get past you and look carefully in the shadow of the cabin. I say, don't let anyone get past you, were his orders. Anyone, the boys echoed in surprise. Yes, anyone. Now hurry, and the boys opened the door and slipped out quietly. All was very quiet for a while, and suddenly a shout was heard from the group of boys led by Beans. I've got him! someone yelled. Come on around here the rest of you, we've got him, called Beans. The other boys came running. They dragged a white-clad figure from the shadow of the cabin into the bright moonlight. That's him, yelled Beans, now hold onto him while I Page 85 i f ,M ll EW tpetettnvtsi i fill remove his robes. He took off the white sheet and revealed an old man with a gray beard and rounded shoulders. He's the tramp I've seen in town several times, declared Weldon upon close inspection. Yes, I've seen him, too, added Hal. What are you doing here? Ric inquired. I stay here all the time, answered the tramp in a surly manner. What did you play ghost for? Beans demanded, angrily. To scare people away. What did you want to scare folks away for? Well, I heard there was some money hidden here. and I wanted a chance to hunt for it, and it made a dandy place to stay. It's real cosy in the cellar, and the tramp glanced regretfully at the cabin. Did you pile our stuff in the middle of the floor? 'AYes. Suddenly the moon went behind a cloud and all was very dark. He's gone! shouted Beans, and when the moon came out again the tramp had disappeared. The boys went back into the cabin and rebuilt the fire. They sat around it and talked for a long time, and Beans told them about the green eyes that be had dreamed about. They went to bed a little later, but it was almost dawn before they went to sleep. When they awoke the next morning they examined the garden carefully, but they could find no traces of their captive of the night before. He said he stayed in the cellar, so there must be one, mused Ric thought- fully. 'ALet's look around on the outside for an entrance. I don't think there is one on the inside. The boys went around the house and on the side opposite the garden they found a small door. I saw that door, but I thought it went into the kitchen, said Beans. He tried the door and found it to be unlocked. Gee, it's dark. Let me have your flashlight, Cy. Cy surrendered his flashlight and Beans led the Way down a low, dark passage. Then he came to a pair of creaking stairs, but he continued, and when he reached the bottom he stopped, turned the flashlight around and ex- amined the cellar. He turned to give one last look at the cellar, and as he did so he saw a pair of bright green eyes coming toward him. Wheeling about he dashed for the stairs. As he neared the door something heavy, yet soft, lit on his head. He dropped the flashlight, gave a scream of terror and made a dive for the door. The door was so low that Beans had to stoop over to go through, and that terrible something was torn from his head. He rushed toward his companions and they ran to meet him, plying him with questions concerning his escape. They decidedto solve the mystery of Shackleford Cabin. They walked slowly and cautiously toward the house. As they neared the cabin a monstrous black cat strutted from the low, dark doorway and across the garden before the astonished boys, and disappeared into the bushes. The boys stared at each other in amazement, and then burst into howls of hysterical laughter. Hoi ho? shouted Beans.

Kent was a tackle this year of unusual ability. The other team usually had to shift their guards around so as to get the largest man they had against Kent, because he didn't seem to care how roughly he treated the other fellow. WILBUR JONES Jones was a first-class, dependable substitute half back. Wilbur was called into the fray several times, and always left impressed upon the other players' minds that though little, he was in the game. Wilbur is a fast man, and we are unwilling to see him depart. He hails from the fourth ward, Maple Ave- nue section, and this was his first year in school athletics. WILLIAM KIRCHMAN This is Billy's third year out for football. He played halfback and end, and played those positions in a very good manner. He was a very dangerous man on the defense, and certainly cut a ball toter down in the open field. He was chosen on Rush Holt's all valley team, which goes to show that he was 1 player that knew his stuff. WILLIAM HAMMOND This is Red's first year out for football, but, nevertheless, he showed that be knew football, by making a very competent reserve end. Red seemed to never get hit so hard as to prevent him from getting up with a smile and going at them again. If he were to decide to come back next year he would be sure to be one of Frank Ice's best ends. Page 91 JAMES SPADAFORE Jimmy, as everyone knows him, was one of our most elusive halfbacks. Although playing in hard luck this year, he got honorable mention on the All State Team, so what would he have done if he had been playing in luck? In the three years that he has played for this school, he has always shown himself a very outstanding player. l MORRIS PUNT Morris is another one of our first men out for football, but to see him give his opponent a good afternoon of punishment you would think that he was a four-year man. He played guard this year, and will be back next year to cinch a regular position. ALPHEUS HAYMOND Alpheus is a reserve center of durable ability. Haymond seems to take to all the high school sports with an equal amount of fight. Haymond has another year with the Polar Bears, and his fellow-students and followers expect great things from him. DOMINICK AGRIPPE He is a product from Bridgeport, and has been enrolled with us for two years now. Dominick is an end of exceptional ability, who played his wares in a fine fashion. Agrippe was given honorable mention on the All State team, which shows that he is of pretty good material. Page 92 So M N - w sl- - fa . AL-Q43 COTTON DELLIGATTI Cotton was one of our big guards this year, who got honorable mention on the All State Team. He played guard on the defense, and on the offense when a yard or two was wanted badly, he was called back to get them. When anybody was lying out on the field, badly in need of the trainer and a wet towel, we knew that Cotton had got over anxious. BRADY KNIGHT This is Kid's last year with us after taking part in all athletics for four years. He was our choice for the mythical All State Team, and it wasn't his fault that he didn't get it. He will go to West Virginia next year, and great things are expected of him. Good luck, Brady! EARL JACKSON Jackie was one of our big guards this year, who let the opponents know he was in there by the way he handled them. He played first sub and started many of the games last fall. With his experience and size he will be boasted as one of the best guards in the state next year. GEORGE DAVIS Zack, as all his friends called him, was our mainstay at the end position. At this position he was always charging into the opponent's backiield and breaking up plays before they got under way. If anybody ever thought that Zack couldn't hit, all they had to do was to start carrying the ball around his end. Page 93 LEE SATTERFIELD Least, but not last, is Lee, our diminutive first sub quarterback. This is Lee's first year out for football, and he got some very valuable experience at the quarterback position. Being a Sophomore and very small, he was handi- capped when playing against larger fellows, but that didn't keep him from being a field General of exceptional ability. EARL DAVIS This is Earl's first year out for football, but that didn't hinder him from making a regular tackle berth. Football seemed to be born in him. If he were to come back next year he certainly would be in the All State class. You could always find Earl down first on punts after he had put his man out of the play. KENNETH HAUN Haun is another one of our men who, because of his stellar playing, has brought honorable laurels to himself on the gridion. Kenney played at guard this year, and the manner in which he played it was shown by the fact that he was chosen by Rush Holt on his All Valley team, made up of the best men in the valley. PATSY TORK Patsy is another one of our men leaving us, after four years of serving this school in a creditable manner on the gridiron. He was named on the All Valley team, and was on the third All State team as center and cap- tain. He has an uncanny ability to cipher out the opponent's next play, and this has peeved many whom he has played against. . Page 91, 7 u ui IRT y ' tuetettnfvcsi ai .fill glfunilmll Glanqx the first day of September, the Fairmont High School footballers entrained for camp, where they were to get two weeks of prelimi- nary work. The camp consisted of a large field, a mess hall that certainly put out eats, and a bunk house which was capable of holding eighty men, although there were only twenty-six men from the High School. The rest of the house was taken up by the Normalites. For three or four days the boys worked out in gym suits so as to get lim- bered up and in condition for heavy work. It was very hard for the boys to get up at six-thirty o'clock and take setting up exercises. Those who were late to these exercises were put on the wood pile till the breakfast call, which came at seven o'clock. Following breakfast there was a two-hour-and-a-half rest until the first work out, which lasted two hours. Then came dinner at twelve o'c1ock, The boys were then given another rest followed by another workout. The boys were called to mess at five o'clock, and the rest of the evening was their own. Some of the celebrities of camp were Alex Ronay, Red Hammond and Carl Booth. One day they were all worrying, because they thought they were to have the heavy work slung on thick that afternoon. Finally, Alex said that he would go see if they were to dress light that afternoon, and on going up to the coach to get the desired information, he received an answer something like this: You boys will dress to light on your-head. So naturally that part of it was settled. The camp this year, under the fine coaching of Mr. Ice and his assistant, Mr. Hicks, was a great success, and we hope the camps in the future will be even better. i SEPTEMBER 25 Fairmont 14-Weston 0 The day dawned beautifully and was even more beautiful when the two teams lined up for the kick-off. On September 25, 1925, at 3 o'clock, the Hrst game of the season was started at South Side Park by the Fairmont High School team. The lineup for the first game was: Knight, fullback: Spadafore and Jones, halves, and Mitchie at quarter, Tork at center, Linger and Delli- gatti, guards: Davis and Haun, tackles: Kirchman and Glover at ends. Knight caught the first ball on the 10-yard line and ran it to his own 35 before being stopped. He also made the first touchdown. On a forward pass, Mitchie to Knight, he ran 46 yards for the first touchdown of the game. Spadafore added the extra point. Fairmont worked the ball down to the 1 yard line and Spadafore got another touchdown and added an extra point by a drop kick. Fairmont intercepted 6 forward passes. Fairmont worked the best in years for the first game. Page 95 -I ll 1:4 EMPLGLISIBUES 'fill Fairmont 14-Shinnston 0 The old weatherman showed the royal rooters, who followed the F. H. S. football team to Shinnston the first, real football weather of the season. The dear old Blue and White fluttered on in the rain to a fourteen-to-nothing vic- tory over the heavy Shinnston gridders. Fairmont out-played, out-fought and out-scored the boys up the river. Every player was a star in himself on the slippery gridiron. Delligatti kicked off for Fairmont, and when we got possession of the ball We quickly put it where it belonged, behind our rival's goal. Due to the condi- tion of the pigskin, the score for the extra point was missed. A Shinneston player fumbled behind his goal line and recovered, only to be tackled by a Fairmont man. Two more points were added to our score, making it eight. Late in the fourth quarter a pass was completed, which paved the way to our Hnal touchdown. Knight carried it over. The extra point was missed. The Shinnston team failed to get any closer than twenty yards to our coveted goal, and did not get a single first down. About as many people from Fairmont High as from Shinnston attended the game. OCTOBER 9 Elkins 12-Fairmont 0 A surprise greeted the football fans of Fairmont on Saturday morning, Oc- tober the ninth. On awakening and looking from the window at about seven o'clock one could see large snowflakes Hoating to rest on the wet ground. Snow or rain cannot stop a football game, so, at two-thirty, a good sized crowd flocked to the park, despite the cold, to see Fairmont High School and Elkins clash. The team came out of the Shinnston mix up rather cut up. Mitchie, the captain: lVlcLeary, end, and Jones, a back, were out of the line up, several other men were not in shape. Delligatti and Spadafore were the stars. Knight also played a stubborn game. Jimmie Spadafore had a rib broken, but played a complete quarter before he was removed from the game. The Elkins' team out-weighed the home team twenty pounds to a man. Fairmont fought gal- lantly, but finally lost by a twelve to nothing score. The game was very thrilling. If you remember, it was Elkins who kept us from the State cham- pionship last year. This year they broke our record of not being scored upon for twelve consecutive games. Previous to this game the Blue and White had run up a score of two hundred and thirty-three points to their opponents' nothing. OCTOBER 16 Fairmont 3-Wheeling 25 The Fairmont High gridders suffered their second defeat of the nineteen hun- dred twenty-five season when the team. with a small band of loyal rooters, journeyed to Wheeling. Wheeling has the best team in the history of the school, and the students of our school cannot say so much, since the Blue and White failed to out-battle the Wheeling team. Previous to the game with Fairmont, Wheeling had not been scored upon and had run up a total of one hundred and five points to their opponents' nothing. Their record was shat- tered, however, when their center gave a bad pass to the fullback, which he fumbled. Fairmont recovered the ball, and after working it over to the center of the field on the Wheeling ten-yard line, Agrippe dropped back and drop- Page 96 x 'i ul: 'Ni' ,::a,,-WI W1-fT h ' QPLGLGAUES ill game was a rather neat affair at all stages. Knight gained continually with line plunges. but the wet field always prevented the Bears from putting the kicked a field goal. This put a mantle of surprise on the Wheeling crowd, for Fairmont had scored first. This did not last long, however, for the heavy team continually worked the ball down the field for touchdowns. One pass was completed for Fairmont for a gain of twenty-five yards. Fairmont seemed to fight better in the latter part of the game, and started down the field for a touchdown. but old man Time interfered and the game was over. OCTOBER 23 Fairmont 7-Washington Irving 13 On October the twenty-third, Fairmont faced the Washington Irving grid- ders at the South Side Park. W. I. was rated as a better team than Fairmont, but the latter proved to the large crowd which had gathered there that they were a fighting team, for they held the Clarksburg warriors to six downs while they netted seven. The first quarter passed without much real gaining. One play drew the crowd to its feet. Spadafore dropped back to kick, but the ball was blocked and a Clarksburger recovered and carried it across for what seemed a sure touch- down. W. I. was offside and the score didn't count. In the second quarter the same thing happened again, but this time it was the real thing, and W. I. was given the first points of the game. They also kicked goal. When the second half started, Fairmont showed real fight. They started from the forty-nine yard line and Hnally placed the ball over the goal line. While working it down the field a double pass was pulled which gained fifteen yards. Agrippe attempted to kick for the point, but in their anxiety the W. I. team was off-side and the point was given to F. H. S. In the fourth quarter a Fairmont pass was intercepted and W. I. made an- other touchdown. So the game ended with Washington Irving leading, thir- teen to six. Fairmont spoiled another record on this day. Clarksburg had gone undefeated and un-scored on until this game, having made ll3 points to their opponents' nothing. OCTOBER 30 Fairmont O-Morgantown O After losing three games to superior teams or hard luck jinx, the Fairmont High School Polar Bears were growling all around the park while battling the Morgantown gridders to a scoreless tie. Although the snow was half a foot deep, the Bears were not as much at home as the name indicates. A wet, heavy ball prevented a gaining punt game, and the slippery field held the players from making any noticeable gains by the run route. Both teams played ex- cellent football considering the prevailing conditions. The officials were handi- capped by not having a field which was laid off in the proper manner fthe snow preventing thisl, but did very well, and no unsatisfactory penalties resulted. Neither team was nearer its opponents' goal than fifteen yards. Tork. Agrippe, Delligatti, Fisher and Spadafore were absent from the line-up, due to minor causes. NOVEMBER 6 Fairmont O-Fairmont Normal Reserves 0 On a mud soaked field, before a medium crowd on a cold, wet day, the Fair- mont High School Polar Bears held the Normal Reserves to a O-O tie. The pigskin behind the opponents' line. Page 97 , l yi., .crm IEE Sli-IT' naetet tn'v'f52 K Z Z!! In the last quarter Fairmont High nearly made a touchdown. Booth was substitute for Mitchie. He received a punt on the forty-five-yard line and car- ried it to Normal's twenty-yard line. Knight again gained and we had fifteen yards to go, but a penalty for off side and the tightening up of the Normal line stopped the Blue and White. The game was more of a family affair. and players of both teams kidded each other from start to finish. The quarters were 8-10-12-15 minutes. ' NOVEMBER 13 Fairmont West Side O-Fairmont East Side 0 Friday the thirteenth was the annual meeting of two bitter rivals, namely: the East Side High and Fairmont High School. The field was covered with 21 three-inch coat of thick mud, which greatly hindered both teams, but the loyal rooters from each school and the townspeople were all pleased with the type of football displayed. The game was played to a scoreless tie for three quarters. then a reserve play, a lateral pass, by Fairmont netted them a touchdown. The referee ruled that the pass was not completed according to the rules: therefore, the ball was brought back. In the first half the Icemen played an offensive game, but came back in the second half with a defense that rightly should have won the game. In some stages Fairmont High completely outplayed East Side in punting. Spadafore never punted better in any previous game. Several times he booted the wet pigskin far down the field away from his goal when it was threatened. East Side was given an easy victory by the dope, but even if Fairmont did not win by regulation rules, they earned a moral victory. They did the unexpected. This was the fifth annual clash of the two Fairmont schools. Their record is as follows: F S 1921- . H. ..,.....,.... 14 E. S. H. S ...,..,...,,, 7 1922-F. H. S .........,,.. O E. S. H.

O 5 2 21 Fairmont 20-Grafton 0 Fairmont High won its last game of the season very easily from the Smoky City lads. Fairmont lived up to its old record by holding the Grafton play- ers in their own territory most of the time. The game was featured by long, wide sweeping end runs, which netted all their touchdowns. Kirchman scored for Fairmont in the initial period. After a 30-yard end run by Kirchman, Spadafore kicked goal-7-0. Fairmont came back in the second half with renewed fight. Knight received the kickoff and returned it 15 yards, followed by a 20-yard run by Spadafore. On the next play Kirchman carried it over after an end run. Agrippe missed oal. g Spadafore scored the final touchdown when he received a pass and ran 35 yards through the entire Grafton team. Spadafore kicked goal-20-0. Knight, Linger, G. Davis, E. Davis. Hammond, Jones, Fisher and Tork played their last game for Fairmont High.

WIl.LlAlNl l BilIy J KIRCHMAN Captain-elect FFF SATTERFIFLD Captain Page 99 Wll I IAVI JOBFS i V WILLIAM KIRCHMAN Kirchman started the year as regular guard, but was later shifted to a reserve position. The fans will remember several incidents when Coach Ice Sent him into a game and he would drop two or three through the basket without touch- ing the rim. Billy has one more year in the Polar Bear's uniform, and we expect him to lead the team through to a successful close, . DOMINICK AGRIPPE Agrippe was a dependable reserve, who did very good work when he was called upon. His position was at the forward post, and he had the reputation of always having the same amount of iight at all stages of the game. This is Agrippe's Junior year, and we will see him again at his favorite position next year. We have a very valuable man in this athlete. FRED GLOVER The stocky guard, regular on the Cubs and reserve on the Bears, is a veteran when it comes to playing a good defensive game. He is a cool, cautious player. who always takes his time before going into action. Glover will be with us next year and will be out for the team. WILLIAM SCHIMMEL Schimmel played a guard position on the Cubs. He is a good floor man and an accurate passer. Bill is a good shot, cool player, good sport, and we are sorry to see him leave this year. Page 100 --v-,. - 1 .,,s I ,.aiMK.m. na Ji' 5 . .. -r1V ' , 191' BRADY KNIGHT The shooting guard! This really explains more than one thinks. It is very seldom that a high school has had the advantage of a man at the guard position who could get away from his opponents and make several shots, which added greatly to the final score. This is Brady's last year, and we will miss him greatly. WILLIAM HAMMOND Red Hammond, the flashy red-headed forward and center, played with the Cubs and Polar Bears and proved to be worth considering when a fighting player was discussed. This is Red's last year, and the first that he has tried out for athletics. We are sorry he could not stay, for a lot of our people will miss him next year. THOMAS FISHER The tall, cool headed center was in the midst of every play, and was always making points when they were needed. This is Fisher's last year. He started the year as a first string sub, but wound up as a regular man to be depended upon. . LOUIS CLOUSE We can safely state here that there is one better guard to be found in the State than this bronzed basketball player. This is his last year at F. H, S. It would seem rather unusual to see Clouse go down and not come up with the ball, or that he should fail to take the ball from the banking board in lirst-class style. Page 101 J 'Q w V 'K l 1 WILBUR JONES Jones played regular forward on the Cub team. He is a flashy player and a somewhat fancy shooter. His shooting under the basket was always a fea- ture. Nutty is a good example of the athletes turned out by this school. XVilbur played his last game for the Blue and White this year. PATSY TORK Tork is in his uniform for the last time this year. To say that the students of Fairmont High are very unwilling to part with this star is putting it very lightly. Patsy played forward this year, and did it in a way which was very pleasing to the school and its followers. ALPHEUS HAYMOND This is another hard playing man whom Coach Ice has developed for the future. Haymond has another year at Fairmont High, and he should make all candidates step lively for the guard position next year. Alph was a regular with the Cubs and also got into a few of the Major Games. JAMES MCLEARY Jimmie is a flashy forward and somewhat of a fancy player. James is a Junior this year, and will be out for the team with all the fight he is capable of next year. He should develop into a star forward, for he proved that point in the games he participated in this year.

S. 22-WEST UNION 7 New Year's evening saw the Polar Bears growling in West Union in one of the holiday games. The lcemen ran roughshod over the West Union Bas- keteers, and won a one-sided game by the score of 22-7. The game was featured by the shooting of Captain Satterfield. of the local school. The Blue and Whites showed their superiority over the other courtmen in practically all parts of the game. F. H. S. 24-ALUMNI 10 The Polar Bears opened the 1926 season on the basketball court December '50, with a decisive victory over the old grads. The game was a closely con- tested affair in the first quarters. At the end of the half the score being 14-8 in the High School Tossers' favor. The last half, however. was where the youngsters showed their superiority, out-scoring the Alumni 5 to 1. The final score was 24 to 10. Captain Satterfield was high point man. with four field baskets to his credit. FAIRMONT 30-MONONGAH 11 Displaying a fast passing game. the Fairmont Polar Bears completely out- classed the Miners from Monongah. Led by Satterfield and Fisher, the Polar Bears whipped Monongah to an eighteen to nothing score in the first half. Al- though the passing in the first half was brilliant, the boys showed need of improvement in shooting. In the second half the reserves were sent into the fray, and not until then did the Miners break through the solid defense set by the Fairmont team. Not until they had looped two or three in from the charity line did they get confidence enough to score a field goal. They were outscored by the reserves to a 12-ll count. The fans were very much pleased with the showing made by the Bears. F. H. S. 28-BUCKHANNON 9 Fairmont High School renewed her athletic relations with Buckhannon on January 9. 1926. It was the first game since the football season of 1923. Fairmont showed her friends in the fair city of Buckhannon that she had not forgotten the game of basketball. At half time the warriors from F. H. S. led by a score of 22-2. Coach Frank lce then gave the reserves a chance to demon- strate their ability before the rival crowd. They did this in a way which can be seen by the results of the final score. They scored 6 while Bullman's men collected 7. The final score ended with the Bears leading 28-9. F. H. S. 29-FAIRVIEW 18 The beginning of the game on January ll saw the reserves in the regulars' places against Carr Ferguson's Fairview Basketball Tossers. The reserves did more than good and held the strong Fairview High to a 9 to 5 count for the first half. Not willing to let the game get beyond our grasp, Ice substituted the first team for the second and they ran roughshod. scoring 24 points. while Fairview did well to duplicate their scoring over the first half. The game ended with the Polor Bears leading and victorious by a 29-18 count. F. H. S. 20-UNIONTOWN 37 The Blue and White Court Warriors were stopped at last-20-37 was the result of the game played at Uniontown on January l2. Although the Polar Bears came out on the short end of the score, they had by far the better and Page 104 -. 9 ni: lui -4 A 4 .J Q .Y JU' H - ' -LW' ll ll6jPL6LGllUE3i 1 g 'Kill smoother floor work. The Icemen were flawless in their passwork, but were away below par in shooting. Hyatt, All-American substitute and Captain of the Keystone Champions, did all in his power to contribute to the local's downfall. He made eleven field baskets and two in five fouls. This was the first defeat for the Fairmont High team in six starts and the first for 1926. F. H. S. 28-WASHINGTON-IRVING 13 The Hrst quarter ended, Washington-Irving, 7: F. H. S., 7, the half ended 11-ll, the third quarter, 19-12 in Fairmont's favor, and at the final whistle the Polar Bears led by a 28 to 13 count. By the facts stated you may have an imaginary vision of the mighty Bears piling up the score in the second half while Washington-Irving had to be content with two free points, one in each of the last two quarters. Tork was high point man in this floor battle, caging five Held goals and making good three free throws in as many chances. On the evening of January 15, many Fairmont fans were in the gym at Washing- ton-Irving and everyone was well pleased with the showing made by the lcemen. F. H. S. 15-SHINNSTON 18 The Hrst defeat of the year!! It hurt a little, but some unpleasant things must be endured with the joyful. January 16 saw Shinnston's lanky, orange colored warriors emerge victorious from a hard fought battle by a score of 18 to 15. Was Fairmont over confident? Were they outplayed? Weren't they as good as the Shinnston team? None of the questions deal with the real rea- son, which is: Fairmont's schedule beat them, They were over conditioned and were unable to hold their supremacy over such a hard battling team. We offer no alibies. We were defeated by a good team. F. H. S. 37-BUCKHANNON 15 After a rest of two days, on January 19 the Icemen were back in the game with as much fight as ever, Although they were still weak in making the ball go through the rim, they completely outplayed the Upsur County Basketball Tossers and were leading when the game ended by a rather one-sided score of. 37-15. The Polar Bears were leading at the half by a 16 to 5 score. Satter- field and Tork did the bulk of scoring before they were removed from the game by Coach Ice, who replaced them with two substitutes. The foul shooting of the Icemen was better than in any previous game, making good seven shots out of eleven chances. The little Polar Bears did considerable growling also as they replaced the old heads. FAIRMONT 24-HUNDRED 12 Holding the strong Hundred Basketball Tribe to two field baskets in three quarters of an exciting game seems impossible, but we did this on January 22, At the beginning of the last quarter, the second Varsity was substituted, and Hundred, taking advantage, scored five points on the Little Bears. Coach Ice used twelve men, and they all did their bit in helping to aid in the downfall of their rivals, the 1925 district champions. Hundred High School brought a large body of followers to see their team defeat the Polar Bears, but they were very much disappointed, for when the last Whistle blew the Blue and White warriors were leading by a 24-12 score. FAIRMONT 25-UNIONTOWN 27 The greatest exhibition of basketball ever seen in Fairmont. This was what could be heard after the great basketball game on January 26, 1926, in Page 105 Www llig fl fl ESAPLGUSAUES 41:5 ll i jo' .Ah which the Pennsylvania champions, Uniontown, nosed out Fairmont High School by a heartbreaking score of 27 to 25. The Bears seemed to play beyond the hopes of their ardent followers. They were leading at the end of the first quarter by a score of nine to one, holding the powerful Indian coached team to a lone foul goal in eight minutes of play. The third quarter was the beginning of a whirlwind game. The Keystoners came back strong, with fear in their mighty hearts that the little team from West Virginia was getting a little the better of the argument. As the result they overcame the lead, and at the end of the third quarter, we were leading by two points, 20-18. Then began a passing game which the eye could hardly follow. The large, rangy lads from the rival city in Pennsylvania and the Polar Bears, our repre- scntatives in the fight, outdid themselves in trying to be the one on the long end of the score when the final whistle blew. The third quarter, play by play, will, perhaps, show the reader and will recall to the minds of the students in after years the game their team put up for the decision. The third quarter, play by play In the first play, Kirchman fouled McBurney, who made good his chance, and only one point separated the two teams. K. Brayton made a close in shot and his team forged to the lead for the first time. K. Brayton repeated with another field goal and Uniontown led by three points. Kirchman got one from the field, cutting the margin to one point. Hyatt, star forward, fouled Knight and he made good the try tying the score. K. Brayton missed a chance at a free throw on Fisher's foul. Knight collapsed with only sixty seconds left to play and time was taken out. Tork went in for Satterfield. Knight resumed playl Tork put Fairmont in the lead with a close in shot. The gym was in an uproar as the seconds ticked away. Uniontown took time out. Hackney, for Uniontown, tied the score with a shot from the side of the floor. Hyatt then scored the Winning two point- er, the star's only points of the evening. Thus it ended, Fairmont just one field basket behind a team which has not been defeated in three years of basketball, not counting the National Tourna- ment, which they were third best in. Knight, the star guard of the Polar Bears, contributed eight points toward his team's final score, being high point man of the battle. FAIRMONT 20-FAIRVIEW 15 On the second of February, the Polar Bears journeyed to Fairview, where they met and defeated the Fairview High School team, by a score of 20 to 15. Our boys displayed fine work in the first of the game, and at half time the score stood at 15 to 5 in favor of the Bears. In the second half the Icemen seemed to be dead on their feet, and the fast Fairview passers threatened to tie the score, but ine defensive work on the part of Clouse and Knight repulsed their attack. Fairmont's team play was not up to par in the second half and the Bears netted only five points, but their large score of the first half kept them in the lead . Brady Knight played a stellar game at guard, breaking up the op- ponents' offense and caging four field goals. Captain Lee Satterfield and Tom Fisher, who started his second game at the center position, also aided ma- tcrially in the scoring. Page 106' . yr ll ' .F lflP.L5U5flV53 'fill FAIRMONT 29-EAST SIDE 21 The East Side Yellow Jackets sprang a surprise when they held the power- ful Polar Bears to an eight point win. Little Lee Satteriield could not be stopped, however, and scored six field baskets and one out of three chances at the foul line for a total of thirteen points. Fisher also played a bang-up game at center until he was pulled to make room for Kirchman in the lineup. He was responsible for eight of Fairmont's scores. The team seemed to be worn out from their game with Uniontown, and did not show very much pep until the final period. As a whole, they did exceedingly well, considering the game previous to this one. Fairmont made thirteen field baskets to our rival's eight. We fell down in our foul shooting, being able to make good three chances out of a possible ten, while East Side made good fifty per cent. of theirs, making good five out of ten chances. When the fog of the fierce battle had cleared, it was found that the Fairmont Varsity was leading 29 to 21. This game was the first of the City Championship Series. An assembly of a thousand fans gathered at the Normal Gymnasium on this cold evening of January 28 to see the two ancient rivals battle, and they were well pleased with the exhibition of basketball displayed by both teams. FAIRMONT 28-MORGANTOWN 4 Morgantown High School offered little opposition to the Polar Bears on the night of February 5, and they had little difficulty in running roughshod over the Clydemen. The final score was 28 to 4 in favor of the Bears. The Ice- men held the advantage at all times, and the Morgantown boys never threatened to tie the score. Captain Lee started the scoring with a field basket, and then the Bears kept up a continual rain of double-deckers that held the down-river boys at a disadvantage. Expert defense work on the part of Clouse and Knight kept the Clydemen from scoring, and it was late in the second quarter, when Morgantown registered their first field basket. Two shots from the foul line completed the scoring for Morgantown. WEST FAIRMONT 38-EAST FAIRMONT 19 The City Championship for three consecutive years! This was the result of the game played on the Polar Bear floor. The game was a hard fought battle, although the score indicates the opposite. The undisputed star of the game was Patsy Tork, the veteran member of the Blue and White team. He didn't get started until the second part of the game: here he netted eight field goals, bringing his total to nineteen points, enough to tie the Yellow Jackets. The score at half time was fifteen to four, favoring the Fairmont High Tossers. In the last two minutes of play Coach Ice substituted the Cubs for the Bears, and they succeeded in scoring upon the city rivals from the other side of the Monongahela. - The final grand reckoning was Fairmont, 38: East Side, 19. FAIRMONT 33-HUNDRED 22 The Bears traveled up Buffalo Creek to the district champions' stronghold. on February 22, and succeeded in adding another scalp to their now heavy belt. The game was a very fast affair, with the Icemen leading all the way with a score at half time of 14 to 8. You will undoubtedly recall that this makes the second time we have succeeded in defeating the Trophy Holders this year. The final score being 33 to 22. FAIRMONT 14-ELKINS 27 , February 20 the Bears traveled to the mountains of Elkins. where they were defeated by a score of 27-l4. The Mountaineers displayed superior work at Page 107 ti? Z ZT mail ETAVES eil all times. and the Icemen never threatened to outscore their opponents. The Elkins High School team was undoubtedly the best team that the locals had opposed so far. FAIRMONT 12-SHINNSTON 28 Fairmont was defeated for the second time by Shinnston after a very hard played game. The Fairmont Polar Bears seemed to be dead on their feet after playing a hard schedule the week before. It was a very listless game for the rooters from Fairmont, because the Polar Bears did not seem to have the old snap in their pass work. Satterfield starred for Fairmont with a total of seven points for the Blue and White. A large crowd went to Shinnston for the game. l AIRlVl0N'l' 24-MORGANTOWN 11 On February Z6 the Fairmont High Polar Bears journeyed down to Morgan- town and won from the Clydemen in a very handy fashion. The game was a rough affair, owing to the smallness of the Hoor. Tork starred for Fair- mont. getting a total of 10 points. Satterfield came next with nine points and Fisher and Knight collected two each. This was the second time during the season that Fairmont won from Morgantown. both games being easy victories. A large crowd followed their favorites to the scene of the battle. ELKINS 16-FAIRMONT 12 The game, which resulted in a 16-to-l2 win for Elkins on March 13, was the last game on the schedule for the Polar Bears. Although they fought from start to finish. they were somewhat off form. The ball absolutely refused to drop through the basket. It would roll around on the rim, sometimes pause for a second while the spectators held their breath. then drop on the wrong side. The first quarter was a battle royal, Elkins getting a little better of the argument by a 2-to-0 lead. They still held the lead at the half, the score being 6-to-4. The final score was 16-to-l2, against us. This was the last home game for Tork. Knight, Clouse and Fisher. -T' ' 1 21 f am .mfaLaf,J,. I . ii A 5 'a Page 108 l- Ylvqgvv x.-4' ... II 7 El6lPL63LEAUE5i f': g 'Kill Unurnanteni 'Cflalk PQ !..,, AIRMONT participated in and won the seventh annual sectional basketball tournament held each year at the Fairmont State Col- sl lege. Fairmont showed a brand of basketball that would have 'pf made the best of them step to keep the pace. The Blue and White Warriors fought with never-say-die spirit, and as the result, were the winners of the closest contest ever witnessed by local fans. At the start of the two-days' battle, Fairmont drew Morgantown. We had defeated the University lads twice in the preceding scheduled games, and took them over in the tournament by a score of 24 to 9. The score signines an easy triumph, but those who saw the game will have another opinion to broach, Having won our way to the tri-finals, we were to meet the only team in the State who had defeated us two games. Shinnston came into the tournament fresh, because of the fact that the team which was to play them in the Opening round, Lumberport, was unable to qualify for the play, owing to the fact that the city had been quarantined for small pox. Shinnston came in confident that they would take the Polar Bear's fur back to their little school up the river, but we had something to say on the same question, and as the result we, as the old expression is, sent them home with a bug in their ears, stinging from a 22- l 6 defeat. This gave us the right to play in the semi-Hnals. We met Farmington and the Icemen had to exert themselves to win. They did this easily, however, and we won our way to the finals by another 22-16 score. In the meantime our most bitter rivals, the East Fairmont High School, had also battled their way to the finals. FAIRMONT AND EAST FAIR- MONT IN THE FINALS!! The hazy recollection of last year, when the East Fairmont High School had eliminated them in the first round, caused the Polar Bears to wait impa- tiently for the whistle that would start the battle. At eight o'clock on Sat- urday evening, March 6, the two teams started the iight for the Championship. The Polar Bears took an early lead and were never in danger. We even had a chance to let our reserves take a bite of the juicy spoils. The Final Score was FAIRMONT HIGH SCHOOL, 27-EAST FAIRMONT HIGH SCHOOL, 23 President Rosier, of the Fairmont Teacher's College, gave the winners the awards, which were handsome gold medals. Captain Lee Satterfield gave a speech which was loudly applauded. I don't think there was ever a team of boys who worked together to any better results than I had the pleasure of cap- taining for Fairmont High School. was a phase of Captain Satterfield's speech. Some of the high points of the Tournament are given as follows: Fairmont High led in the scoring, getting 95 points to their opponents' 64. We came second with the highest score for a single game, 27, against East Side. The lowest score of the meet was the 24-9 defeat of Morgantown by the Icemen. Lee Satterfield tied Combs, of East Side, for second honors for the largest number of baskets made in a single game, 6 in number. Satterfield scored his six in the Iinal game against the East Side team. Koch, of Kingwood, was first with seven baskets against Barracksville. Page 10.9 i .U lflplflffl-f5flV53 of 'Kill Captain Satterlield and Combs, of East Side, tied for high scoring honors of the Tournament, with 40 points to each's credit. Satterlield made good all his tries from the foul line, making six free tries out of the same number of chances. The largest crowd that ever witnessed a game in Fairmont was present at the finals. Tork's good feelings towards Referee Ross, who threw him out on per- sonals more times than any other player, was a pleasing incident. The enthusiasm shown by the students in the meet, and the clean sportsman- ship shown by all members of the teams were outstanding features.

They were defeated in the first game of the preliminaries by Washington-Irving High jf 'Q School of Clarksburgh by a score of 18-13. Fairmont had been the victor in two preceding games and were confident that they could repeat the feat. Fairmont High School once ranked with the basketball leaders of the State. In 1915, headed by the well-known Jimmie Knight, now coaching the St. Peter's High School, they went to the semi-finals. Here they were defeated by the Charleston High School tossers by a close score of 23-19. Charleston won the tournament. Fairmont, due to its good showing, was given second place. Backed by a wonderful record, Fairmont journeyed to Buckhannon again in 1916, and played good ball until meeting Parkersburg. They easily de- feated F. H. S. The local school was awarded third place in the tournament, Parkersburg being the winner. With Jimmie Knight still starring another Blue and White team, the Fair- mont High boys in 1917 won their way to the tri-finals, where they were de- feated in a wonderful game with the Cathedral High from Wheeling in an extra five minutes of play by a score of 31-30. That year Fuzzy Knight carried off the cheering cup as the greatest cheer leader ever to enter Buckhannon. We all know Fuzzy. We met Elkins and were defeated in the second round in 1918 by a score of 31-15. In 1919 we were defeated in the Hrst round by Clendenin by a score of 26-23: but were redrawn and went to the semi-nnals, Buckhannon eliminat- ing us by a 20-13 score. This year the cheering cup again became the possession of the Blue and White School. In 1920 Fairmont, after winning from Farmington and Buckhannon, was stopped easily by Parkersburg by a 20-4 defeat. The absence of three star players from the lineup in the 1921 tournament probably kept Fairmont from raising a great deal of trouble. As it was they were defeated by Sistersville in a close game of the opening round by a score of 18-14. In 1922 we welcomed our new coach, Frank Ice. of W. V. U, The Polar Bears lost to Weston in the first round by a score of 24-17. Parkersburg was the cause of our defeat of 19-14 in 1923. Parkersburg won the tournament. Fairmont worked her way to the tri-Hnals in 1924, after making a good showing in the preceding games, but was eliminated by Wheeling. 19-9. We sent no representatives to the tournament in 1925. We hope to do better next year with Billy Kirchman leading the team.

The first of their achievements was a dance, given December l8, in the Fair- mont Theater Dance Hall. It was such a huge success that they made plans for another one later on.

HE curtain rises on the lngal s home where preparations are being made for the home-coming of the twins, Lois and Bradley, from college. Mr. ,,.545g:g Bradley is worried very much because the new City Council is crooked, MM' and since he refuses to pull any dirty deals, they are trying to force him out of oflice. All his life he has had a desire to be a horticulturist, but never has had the time or money, for he is always trying to work harder and sacrilice more in order to give the children a good education. The children, Lois, Brad- ley and Hugh Cwho has finished school and now is planning to marry Dagmar Carrollj, do not seem to appreciate anything that is done for them, and are always clamoring for more. Granny, old Mrs. Bradley, thinks they should be made to shift for themselves. MAY 28, 1926 The twins, after wiring for more money, finally arrive home, a day early in a ramshackle old Ford. The crash comes when Mr. Ingals, refusing to sponsor any shady jobs, in a moment of anger, resigns from his position. The children, surprising everyone, show their true selves, saving the situation. Lois and Bradley get jobs and Hugh offers to put off the wedding and loan his money to his father. But Granny has another plan. She buys an interest in a green house and gives Mr. Ingals a position. Hugh marries Dagmar, but the twins refuse to give up their work. l'The Goose Hangs High has been given in twenty-six colleges and a few high schools this year. It was presented at the Bijou Theatre in New York by the Dramatics Theatre, Inc., January 29, 1924. 1 In , 'Q l K Page 135 v, .tr V , EMPLGLEAUES 'mil QA '5Irnul1z1hnur's team HE Troubadour's Dream, a One-act play, by Claudine E. Clements, was presented at the Christmas Chapel program December 17. 1925. The scene of the play is a room of an old chauteau of medieval French WNXXs days. The action is woven about the time of a discontented Countess, who plans to run away from her home and husband. She is kept from this by the troubadour's story of his dream of the Nativity. The play was well given. Margaret Linn Hamilton, as the Countess, and Roy Morris, as Arnant, the Troubadour, were exceptionally good. CAST CULIHIPSS . ,. .i ,..,. ........ ,.... ...,......,,.......

They gave me castor oil last night Just cause you made me whine. l'm awful sick this morning And l'm feelin' mighty blue, Because you don't appreciate The things I do for you. nga Qlliemarks in Elia gfillllfll' -.X K in Z f .Ah . 4 .4 W' TTT aiaiitizrivcs +21 Efliterarg Qlnniest the morning of April second, at 9.30 o'clock, the preliminaries Wjl . . . swf, to the District Literary Contest were held. About fifty students of Fairmont High School tried out for one of the four events, '6 l which were debate, oration, extemporaneous speaking and essay. The debate and essay events were held in one of the classrooms in the morning. Two students were chosen in each event to compete in the final event in the evening. Those chosen in the debate were Lillian Cook and Richard Shurtleif. And those who were winners in the essay were Kathleen McCray and Harriet Marie Hoge. The judges for these events were Miss Mar- garet Ruth Smith, Miss Viola Wolfe and Mr. B. D. Kahn. In the afternoon the orations and extemporaneous speeches were given in the auditorium of the school. In the orations Mary Baxter Cunningham and Amy Allen were selected. Morris Funt and Warner Glover were decided as the best extemporaneous speakers. Miss Dorothy Watson. Miss Louise Rock and Mr. E. J. Hawkins acted as judges. ww' X6 Mali is.. -Vw f 0619 The finals of the contest were held in the auditorium in the evening. The winners of the events were as follows: Essay, Harriet Marie Hoge: Debate, Lillian Cook: Extemporaneous Speaking, Morris Funt: Oration, Mary Baxter Cunningham. A prize of five dollars was given to the winner of each event. The prizes were donated by the Kiwanis Club, The Fairmont State Bank, The National Bank of Fairmont and the H. Y5 H. Drug Store. The judges were Miss Louise Leonard, Mr. Paul M. Musgrave and Mr. Walter Barner. The contestants were very evenly matched, and there was much dougt in the minds of the audience as to what the decision of the judges might be. Another attraction was the Fairmont High School Orchestra, which fur- nished music, under the direction of its leader, Professor Charles Fflock, at the beginning of the program and while the judges were preparing their report. The four winners will compete with the winners of contests of other high schools in this section, being, namely: Monongah, Morgantown, Mannington, Masontown and East Fairmont. The winners in the district contest will go to Morgantown on May four- teenth, where, at West Virginia University, the State Literary Contest will be held as a result of the contest, the winner in each event being given a four-year scholarship to the University.
