Q rf 1 if . ., , r 1-I f v,,v Z ' 7- Frank Arnett Ice HE best coach in West Virginia and Fairmont High Schoo1's greatest coach, has ended a long period of service. Frank Arnett Ice has severed his connection with the school after being here seven years. i1 i'f A 1f six of coaching in which he gave his untiring efforts for the Polar Bears and the school. Frank Ice's place will be hard to fill. His men played hard and well because they admired, respected, and loved him. This was intensified in the different titles which they won in basketball this season, piling up victory after victory until they won the right to go to the National Tournament. 1 In turn, Frank Ice loved his men. He was more than a coach, more than an instructor, to the men who played under him. He was, in one, a guardian. a counsellor, a father, to his teams. The record made by Fairmont High School under Mr. Ice has been an enviable one, and a mark for every mentor in the State to try to attain. In the live years Bird has been head coach, two of his football teams have been undefeated, once failing to get the State title by a mere twist of fate when a scoreless tie with Elkins, in the last game of the season, spoiled the record of the Bears. In the past four years, the Bears have lost six, tied six, and won twenty- four games. In basketball, the team has won three city championships, three district championships, two sectional championships, and to crown the list won the State title and the right to represent West Virginia in the National Tourney. where they were defeated by the team which won the tournament, and that by only two points. Frank Ice is a typical West Virginian of the old type. He comes from a pioneer family, and was born and reared in Paw Paw District, Marion County. He took his academic course at the Fairmont State Normal School, and from there he went to the West Virginia University, where he first gained recogni- tion in athletics. For four years, 1915, '16, '17, '19, he was a varsity tackle. In 1917 Ice was one of the first fifteen best men in the United States. It was in the last year that he was a star on the greatest of all Mountaineer elevens. He was a player on the varsity basketball team in 1915, '16, '17, being honored with the captaincy in his last year. Frank Ice joined the army in January, 1918, and was in France for eight months, returning to resume his work at the University. Page 9 'UQ . N. V . 1 if , ,, 4.4 F. .

The following fall, Ice coached football and track with B. D. Kahn, pres- ent mathematics instructor, as coach of basketball and baseball. In 1921, Coach Ice took over all departments of athletics, and has retained his position as mentor and will do so until the end of this school year, when his resignation which was recently accepted by the Board of Education, will take effect. Paul Biz Dawson, who takes Mr. Ice's place, will have a real task cut out for him, but he will have the backing of all the students and fans. Frank Ice is leaving us and, though we are sorry to see him go, we wish him success and the best of luck. Though he is leaving, his memory will always be cherished by the students of the old F. H. S.

From the greenest little freshie To the mighty seniors grand, , There's more pep here than in any school In all this wide, wide land. From Mr. Buckey down the line To the least one in this place, Things move, they fly, they swish mile high, And, oh, boy! What a pace! There's no place here for dead ones, I hauen't seen a one. But many happy students, Filled with life and fun. From Delaware to Golden Gate There're schools both great and small: But aft-er all is said and done, F. H. S. is best of all. CHARES E.

Many times when defeat seemed just around the corner he called his teams together,.and with a few brief words turned the squad into a lighting, uncon- querable eleven. Captain Glover's ability to back up a line was known to all opposing teams. I-ie could be seen in every play. both offensive and defensive. Fred Wore the Blue and White for the last time in the East Side-West Side game. F. H. S. will say. We are proud of Glover. ALPHEUS HAYMOND Senior Halfback Third year on team Alf is the old plunging, galloping, never-give-up kind fthat is if he made up his mind not to be stoppedl. Haymond got away in the Uniontown game, when he caught a pass and ran for 60 yards for a touchdown: Kirchman threw the pass. Alf will be back with us next year, and will share the honors of the captaincy of the team with Delligatti. . ANTHONY DELLIGATTI junior Guard Third year on team Cotton is playing his third year of football for Fairmont High. During his first year Coach Ice played him at end. but the last two seasons he played a guard position. Cotton played his best game in the East Side game. and never did East Side offensive plays come through his position. Cotton will be back next year, and will share honors with Alpheus Haymond, as he is Captain-elect of coming team. Page 97 EUGENE WRIGHT junior Center Second year on team In the Hrst game of the season Gene played tackle, but later was shifted to center, where he played for the rest of the season. Gene was one of the never-give-up players, and we are very fortunate in having him back with us next year. Gene played his best game at Clarks- burg. Look out: Gene is going up next year. WILLIAM KIRCHMAN Senior Halfback Fourth year on team Billy Kirchman completed his fourth year of football for Fairmont High School on Novem- ber l9, when he ran 76 yards for a touchdown in the last quarter of the East Side-West Side game for the lone tally of the contest. This enabled F. H. S. to defeat East Side by the score of 6-O. Kirchman is a four-letterman in football and much will be expected of him wherever he goes to college. Good luck, Bill! DOMINICK AGRIPPE Senior End Third year on squad Grippie played on left end remarkably well. He was fast in going down under punts and well adept at catching passes. Dominick was in every play which came his way, as well as some which went the other way. The loss of Agrippe will be keenly felt. The loss of this splendid end should bring relief to the other opposing teams. Page 9 8 JOE F OLIO Senior End First year on squad Big Joe came to us from Grafton. He played his first year of football for Fairmont High this year. Joe held down the terminal throughout the season and played remarkable defensive football in all the games. Joe was well liked by the students. The college that gets him holds an enviable position. Joe was selected as a player on the All-Valley Team this year. LEE SATTERFIELD junior Quarterback Second year on team Although Lee was the smallest man on the team. he often proved himself one of the best men. He was a brilliant quarterback. but his real ability was in throwing passes. It was Lee's accurate passes that gave us a tie with the powerful Washington Irving High team. Doc will be back next year and has a splendid chance to land an All State. LEONARD TENNANT Sophomore Tackle First year on squad Leonard held down his post all year as tackle. He had great ability when it came to getting a man so that he would stay got. At Washington Irving when playing Leonard saved the game by scooping up a fumble and running eighty yards for a touchdown. Tennant will be with us for two more years. Page 9 9 1: .,. 'J . :gh I ,Q-1 EARL JACKSON Senior Tackle Fourth year on team Earl played his last year for Fairmont High this season. He has been on the team for four years, and has proved to be one of Coach Ice's valuable players. In all the games of the season Earl played his best in the Uniontown game, although he was always a dependable player. In losing him, Fairmont loses one of her best four-year football men. CARL BOOTH Junior Fullback Second year on team Frog was bothered a lot this year with bruises and could not swing into his usual stride. But nevertheless he did some pretty running at Elkins and in the Shinnston game. Booth is coming back next year, and if injuries do not hamper him he will be a stellar back. KENNETH HAUN Senior Guard Fourth year on team Haun, the guard of all guards, played his last year of football for F. H. S. Kenneth was on the All-Valley Team last year and lived up to his reputation this season. Haun was such a consistent player that he has not been taken out of a game the past two seasons. He is sure to make a good man for some college. What do you say, Kenny? Page 100 53. - si.. f . J MORRIS FUNT Senior Tackle Third year on team Pooky at the first of the season started at the left tackle position in several games. Later his place was taken by Leonard Tennantp from that time. Morris was used at tackle or guard position. Morris completed his studies in Fairmont High School and will not be back with us next season. We are sorry that Pooky is leaving. TOM HARTLIEB junior Halfback First year on team Tom hails from Mannington. where he played football for the last two years. He showed us what he could do, and was given a berth on the first squad. Tom is a fast man. He is good for a gain through the line or around end. Tommy will be back next year, and is expected to bring his sensational playing with him. CLIFFORD RUBLE Sophomore Tackle First year on team Ruble got his shoulder hurt up at training camp. and this handicapped his playing throughout the season. After Ruble played his first year, he played pretty consistent football and will be n valuable player to have back on the line. Ruble is a Sophomore this year. Page 101 l CARLTON HAUN Junior Guard Second year on squad Carlton followed in his big brother's footsteps and proved himself a dependable player. When a man was needed to fill a position in the line or backneld. Carlton could be relied upon. ARTHUR SWISHER Junior Guard First year on squad - Swisher was a substitute this year, but he was always ready to strut his stuff when he was called upon. . Swisher, being a Junior, is expected to fill one of the guard positions left by Haun or Punt. Swisher played in one game this year, but wait for the future and you will see this boy right out there. JAMES MCLEARY Senior End Third year on squad Jimmy was a splendid end. He could receive passes and get his man as well as the other fellow. Jim showed what he could do in the Wheeling game. He was a good sport and always ready to rake as much punishment as anyone could give him.

When the half ended the score stood 7-7, In the third quarter, the score still tied, Kirchman ran through the opponents' team to the ten yard line where the only man between him and the goal line downed him, thus saving Morgantown from defeat. There were many thrilling runs during the game with Kirchman and Hay- mond dividing the honors for Fairmont. UNIONTOWN 6-0 The gridiron was extremely muddy but the plunging backs of Fairmont could not be stopped. Most of the plays were through the line but Kirchman hurled a beautiful pass to Haymond who ran the remaining thirty yards for the lone touchdown of the game. Agrippe failed to kick the goal and the Polar Bears won by a score of 6-O. This is the first time Fairmont ever played an out-of-state team. BUCKHANNON 3-0 The Buckhannon game was the closest escape from defeat that the Bears had during the season. Buckhannon possessed the strongest defense that the locals played against. Agrippe saved the day kicking a Held goal in the first quarter and tried several other times but failed. This game resumed the rela- tionship between the schools in football. WHEELING 7-6 Playing on a slightly muddy field, the Polar Bears marched on to their fourth victory over John Knight's eleven from Wheeling by the score of 7-6. The Bears scored in the early part of the game and Wheeling tallied in the last half, but failing to make the try for goal after the touchdown, the score re- mained 7-6 for the remainder of the game. There were not any individual stars in this game but all the boys were playing good ball. Fairmont scored from a pass, Satterfield to Folio, who was past the goal line. Folio dropped another pass from Satterfield which would have been a touchdown had he held it. Page 103 '41-Him, Q N an K .L . vAf' i' fi,i ,. CLARKSBURG 13-13 Going into the game as an underdog the Polar Bears tied the strong Wash- ington-Irving 13-13. At the first of the game, Leonard Tennant picked up a fumbleand ran 80 yards for our first touchdown. Washington-Irving got two touchdowns in the first and second quarters, thus the count at the end of the half stood 13-7 in Washington-Irving's favor. Fairmont did not score the second half until the fourth quarter, then Joe Folio caught a pass from Satterfield over the goal line and that made the score 13-13, Agrippe missed the point after the touchdown, so it stood 13-13. This tie practically kept Washington-Irving from the Championship of the state. - MORGANTOWN 7-0 The Polar Bears met Morgantown for the second time. As usual, the field was muddy, and the Bears could not open their attack. Fairmont recovered a fumble in mid-field and started on a steady march down the field. The line plunging of Glover and Kirchman carried the ball. Kirchman made the touchdown. The try for extra point was wide but Fairmont had eliminated a t1e score. ELKINS 7-7 After a tiresome trip through the mountains the Bears came near to meeting their Waterloo at Elkins. The game was supposed to be an easy one, but the Elkins warriors almost got the Bears' pelts. At the end of the half the score was 7-0 in favor of Elkins. With some of old fight back the Bears tied the score, SHINNSTON 31-7 In a listless game Fairmont High defeated Shinnston High by a score of 31-7. There were many substitutions during the game, and by the time it ended Fairmont had used 18 players. Fairmont's strong point was around the ends, and they gained the most of the ground won in this manner. Page 104 o,,1H16,, 'ir W 5 is if X 1 H 2 2 v ' .' -. '29 .Af . f X ..y ' W' f ,,f,,m :QM ' ' EAST SIDE-WEST SIDE GAME HE annual City Championship clash was won by the Polar Bears. The game was the best ever played for the city title. Both teams fam played head-up football. ' FQ The first three quarters of the game were very exciting, but MJAXC A' neither team could get within scoring distance of the opponent's goal. However, the fourth determined the City Champions. At the start of the fourth quarter the ball was in East Side's possession on Fairmont's 41-yard line, third down and 5 to go. West broke through left tackle for 15 yards, making it a iirst down on Fairmont's 26-yard line. West made 2 yards at center, Martin failed at right tackle: Hinebaugh's pass was batted down by Glover. Another pass, Hinebaugh to Gough was incomplete. Fair- mont took the ball on its own 24. Kirchman failed at left tackle. On the next play he got loose around right end and with splendid interference and a good deal of speed on his own part, dashed 76 yards for a touchdown. Hess went in for Hinebaugh. Haymond's try for the point after touchdown with Satterfield holding the ball was low and the score stood Fairmont 6, East Side 0. Delligatti kicked off to Hess who returned 12 yards to his 32. Hess lost a yard at left tackle: West Side made 10 at left tackle: West hit the same place again for a first down on his own 45. On the next play West fumbled, Ten- nant recovered for Fairmont on the East Side 43. Kirchman ran around right end for 7 yards. Satterfield lost 3 yards in an attempt at left end, but on the next play he took the ball through center for 7 yards and a first down on the East Side 33. Satterfield's pass to Folio was incomplete. Kirchman hit center for 2 yards. Running around end Haymond picked up three. On a fake play. Aggrippe back as if to drop-kick for a Iield goal, shot a lateral pass to Haymond which gave Fairmont another first down on East Side's 19. Kirch- man fumbled on the next play but recovered for a 3-yard loss. He was banged on the play and time was taken out. Haymond made a yard through left tackle when time was in. A long pass, Satterfield to Haymond, was incomplete over the goal line for a touchback and East Side scrimmaged on its 20. 4 Some of the Fairmont men thought there had been interference but it was not allowed by umpire Leather- wood. West failed to gain at center: Martin and West hit left tackle for 9 yards and Woody kicked to Satteriield who was downed on his own 40. Booth made 6 yards around end and Kirchman made first down for Fairmont on the East Side 45. Kirchman lost at left end as the game ended with Fairmont retaining the championship of this city.

He led in scoring from the field. and was deadly accurate from the foul line. Lee was high-point man in the Sectional Tournament. He amassed 69 points alone. He landed an All-State position on the first team. Lee is coming back next year, and will aid greatly in putting Fairmont on the map in basket- ball. Too much cannot be said for him. ALPHEUS HAYMOND Guard Second year on team Alf, if I am not mistaken, played consistent ball during the 1926-27 season. At any time in the game you could hear Alpheus yell, Fight 'em! and he didn't mean maybe. It was the lighting spirit of Haymond that kept us going in many games. Everybody that saw Haymond play in the d State Tournament knows that he was as goo a uard as was in the tournament. although he was Z not placed on the first or second team. JOE FOLIO Guard First year on team Big Joe hails from Grafton, and we are very fortunate in having such a guard as Joe. He was a great help in winning the Sectional Tournament. and with Haymond, Frank Ice had a good pair of guards. Joe was chosen on the All-State team this year, and voted the most valuable player in the IOUIIIZIITICIII. Page I FRANK SECCURO Forward-Center Second year on team Frank, commonly known as Dummy, when he is in the game fights from whistle to whistle. Although Dummy does not score very many points. he is always right in the play. Dummy played his best game in the tournament against East Side in the finals, holding Prim. at this time East Side forward, down to perfection. Dummy starred in the State meet and was placed on the second All-State team. DOMINICK AGRIPPE Forward Third year on team 'Grippe was a regular forward. He was an accurate shot under the basket, and had much abil- ity to drop balls through from farther back on the floor. He played three years with F. H. S. and has proved himself a very valuable man. We all are sorry Agrippe will not be back with us next year, but we are sure he will make good in what- every field he enters. FRANK HOLDREN Forward First year on team White Top Holdren played regular on the second team and should make a great bid to fill the shoes of Agrippe, our regular left forward. next year. Holdren started his Iirst high school game against Huntington, and succeeded in caging a field goal, but he was a little small against the big boys from Huntington and was replaced by Agrippc. Page Ill ond team for Biz Dawson. GATHA HOFFMAN Center First year on team Gatha is the lanky center on the second team. Long improved as the season progressed, and was playing bang-up basketball at the end of the season. Hoffman is only a Freshman, and much is expected of him in the future. JAMES ALTMAN Guard First year on team Happy is another second-string guard, but he was not fortunate enough to get in a Hrst team's game, although he played head-up ball on the sec- Altmari, being a Sophomore, has a wonderful chance to make good next year. He is a good man EUGENE WRIGHT Guard Second year on team Gene played good basketball all through the season. He i'dings them right and left when they come into his territory. He got in most of the games, and always let the opponents know he was there. He will finish next year. Page 112 I, 1 l Page 113 O ' - t EARL JACKSON Guard Second year on team Jack was a hefty guard. He played regular on the second team and broke into several of the major games. Jack played his position well. He would often be seen breaking up plays which seemed to be headed for the basket. Jack gradu- ates this year and sure will be missed in F. H, S. EDWARD NEY Center First year on team Pigeon played in and out all through the year. He always has plenty of fight and is an expert foul shot. He beat Shinnston 19-20 by shooting a foul in the last of the game. Ney will be back with the same old tight. JOHN CRANWELL Forward or Center First year on team Johnnie is a Sophomore and will be back for a couple of years more. He is rather small. but is growing and will be out to light for a regular position next year. oar-HIGH if la 2. 13152 v 'W I ,f . 7, , .6 A A I I I 1 ,-1545 9 'oN1-'ld 'Qtr V1 N 7 ' SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT OING through the tournament and meeting East Side in the finals, the Fairmont High School Basketball Team won the meet by .-fW,v' , defeating them 39-14. The big score of the tournament was in the opening game, when the Bears downed the Kingwood Team 4'i'+'ff ' 57-13. The Polar Bears played Hundred in the next round and again won 26--12. The next victim was Shinnston, who fell to the tune of 30-19. This placed F. H. S. in the-finals with East Side. At the end of the first half of this exciting game the Polar Bears were leading 18-12. The team showed even better form during the second half and allowed the East Side tossers only two points while they garnered 21 points, making the final score 39-14. Thus endeth another perfect day. During the entire tourna- ment our boys scored 152 points to their opponents' 55. STATE TOURNAMENT For the first time in the history of the Fairmont High School or any other school in Fairmont or surrounding territory, the Fairmont High team, known as the Polar Bears, won the State Championship of West Virginia. The Polar Bears started off with a bang, playing the first game of the tourna- ment with Montgomery and never were headed off throughout the fray. The score ended ll to 6 in favor of the Bears. The next game was played with the fast Pineville live. The boys started off well, and before Pineville boys knew what was going on, had a comfortable lead. The game ended 36 to 19, Fairmont. Although they were without Satterfield, who was ill at the time, they could not have gone better with him. Of all the games the Charleston game was the thriller. The Kanawha boys were all six-footers, and the small Bears looked like midgets beside them. This was the game where size did not count. The Fairmont team had the old West Virginia fight, and managed to come out ahead 22-21. This game was the hump of the tournament, and the boys knew if they could get through this game safely, they had a good chance to take the meet. Saturday morning, everyone was feeling good when the team met the fast Benwood team in the semi-finals, and the boys played head-up all through the game, and at the end of the game, the score stood Fairmont 3l-Ben- wood 20. Then came the finals, Saturday night. with Washington-Irving, the team that beat us twice during the season. The half ended 13-9 in our favor. The third quarter ended 20-13, and at 3 seconds to play the score was 20--18, and Lover, one of their guards, was shooting a foul but he missed it, and before anyone could get the ball off of the banking board the gun shot--Fairmont 20, W. I. 18. Fairmont had won five hard-fought games, and now the Polar Bears, under the direction of Coach F. A. Ice, for the last time had won the championship of West Virginia. Page II4 91-Hlgk f fo ,JZ T lf f6l52 f v -1 a . . I . ' X 1, , , fi 4 ' 'yly V EEA di I Each game won brought more fans and students from Fairmont, and by the final game everybody that you could think of was there to see the team sweep through the final game. It has been the greatest season in basketball for Fairmont High in the history of the School. On the all-state team were placed two men from Fairmont Polar Bears, Satterlield and Folio, forward and guard, respectively. This was a great honor for the boys in addition'to being picked on the all-valley team: Satterlield was chosen unanimously as forward and captain, while Folio was chosen as captain of the all-state team. NATIONAL TOURNAMENT After winning the State Tourney, the Polar Bears accepted the invitation to compete in the National Tournament at Chicago. The necessary funds were raised by public subscription. On the 27th of March the eight Polar Bears left to represent West Virginia in the Windy City. In the Bears' first game they were pitted against Tallassee, Ala., High School. Tallassee was runner-up in the Alabama State Tourney. They also had two all-state men on their team. After four quarters of fast basketball, the Bears emerged with a 20-13 victory. The next day they were scheduled to meet the powerful Morton High team from Cicero, a suburb of Chicago. When the all-American team was picked, the Morton center was given a first team position. The Bears trailed all through the game, although often the margin was only two points. When Morton had a lead of a few points, they would resort to a stalling game, but when the Bears did get the ball, they scored. All the Morton fans were scared throughout the game, but the Bears failed to gain a lead, and Morton came out the victors by a score of 24-22. Later, when Morton was playing Batesville, Arkansas, for the national title, they won by another two-point margin. This shows that the Polar Bears were among the best teams in the country. . This was the first time any Fairmont team ever went to a national tourna- ment. bgafmffffr Jffyfiif' 'g lil2ff'ii ga I. W ll HB7 Page 115 V Haun. Capt.

But about this time rumors were started that Jimmy was mixed up with a train robbery. His arrival at the shoe factory and the robbery were a coincidence. In reality he was shielding the brother of the girl whom he loved. Jimmy walked into love, of course. He fell in love with one of the attrac- tive ofiice girls. But she refused to marry him until his identity was disclosed. He was known only by the name Jimmy. In walked Jimmy finally into happiness. The train robbery was cleared up and the girl he loved promised to be his wife if he would tell her who be was. At the last moment Jimmy revealed his identity-the leading man of the play.

These consisted of dart shooting, candy and cane booths. A delicious menu was served during the acts in the Auditorium which, with the decorations, and the reflection of the spot light was very beautiful.

John Burkett Ryder, an influential millionaire politician, is the fierce lion and Shirley Rossmore is the modest mouse who gnaws at the net that holds the lion. With a group of financiers, Mr. Ryder tries to convict Judge Rossmore of accepting bribery in deciding some of his cases. Judge Rossmore was an honest judge and decided these particular cases contrary to the interest and benefit of the financiers. With her father's happiness at stake, Shirley, who loves Mr. Ryder's son, does all she can to help her father. Mr. Ryder has in his possession some letters from Judge Rossmore that if presented at court would clear him. Shirley writes a book using Mr. Ryder as the principal character and accus- ing him of being a social criminal. As Miss Sarah Greene she enters the Ryder Page 121 1-HI f .,... ' household, invited there because of her unusually honest characterization of the head of the house. Mr. Ryder wishes his son to marry Katherine Roberts, a marriage that would greatly help him in maintaining his political position. Jefferson Ryder absolutely refuses and tells his father he loves Shirley Ross- more. This, of course, is impossible for Mr. Ryder, and he agrees to anything to prevent Jefferson from marrying Miss Rossmore. He himself conceives the idea of his marrying Miss Sarah Greens, an intellectual girl. This, of course. suits Jefferson and Shirley--Sarah Green. Miss Greene reveals her identity to Mr. Ryder and finally persuades him to go to Washington with the neces- sary evidence to clear her father. Courtesy Campaign second annual courtesy campaign vvas conducted the week of April 4 to 8, 1927, under the supervision of Miss Viola Wolfe, Junior English Instructor, with the assistance of Miss Virginia X Browning, Home Economics Instructor, Miss Ruth Fortney, Sales- Lf 'A ' manship and Business English Teacher, and Miss Jean Billingslea, Senior English Teacher. The purpose of the campaign was to improve the manners of the students of Fairmont High School so that it would become the most courteous school in the state. Several courtesy talks were given in class rooms, assemblies, group periods, and at the various clubs of the city. Several hundred posters were made, and these were placed in classrooms, halls, grade schools, shop Windows, and street cars. The students wrote articles for Courtesy and Service, the M. W. P. P. S. Co. publication, and half a Hi-Life issue was given over to the campaign. Courtesy tags Were made and placed on the automobiles of the city. Courtesy slogans and quotations were Written on the blackboards in the classrooms, and a courtesy play The Adjustment Was given in the auditorium. The courtesy campaign ended a big success and benefited Fairmont High School to such an extent that the students considered it a most profitable investment.

To the inhabitants, who did if not trouble themselves concerning him, he seemed but an ordinary, 9 commonplace boy, but nevertheless, he was the son of a King, and a world was awaiting the conquering of his hand. ' As he grew and became a serious-minded youth his life in the drab valley irked him. He envied the swift-winged birds that were free to soar dizzily overhead or dart airily across the billows. Many hours he spent by the sea- shore brooding over the murmuring waters and the languishing ripple of wavelets on the yielding white sand. Far off, farther than the indistinct sky-line, something was calling him- a voice that grew clearer with the passing of the golden days--no words, but a sweet, wistful note of pleading that drew a quivering response from his heart and turned his dissatisfaction to a positive loathing for the unolfending little valley and all that it represented. The mountains contributed to his state of restlessness, for up there, some- where in the proximity of their snowy crowns, pale llickers of light resolved themselves into mistic hands that beckoned alluringly. Whenever he paused in the midst of his aimless roaming, face uplifted to the heights, the lingers waved to him, sometimes tinged with the pink of dawnjor bright with the glory of sunset, but always insistently urgent, and at sight of them an almost irresistible longing would seize him, a longing to obey the gesture of the rosy Hngers, but the perpendicular face of mountain wall defied him. One day as he lay beneath the pines of the lower slopes a hushed footstep caused him to turn his head. A thin, sinister form, muifed in faded robes of coarse weave, stood near, and there was accusation in her attitude. Tell me, Prince, if you were free, what would you do? I would be led by the mountains! cried he, without a moment's hesita- tion. I would answer the voice of the sea! Foolish youth! You would drown or fall from a cliff. But there is a way, and unless you would remain in this obscure place, you must do as I bid you-in short, become my slave. Your slave! echoed the Prince. What have I, a child of royal blood, to do with one of your evident position, let alone administering to you? Not for freedom itself would I thus degrade myself. You forget that you are a captive and that I am offering the only means of escape. Besides, if you refuse, the beckoning hands and voices that you love will depart. Choose. Q And the Prince chose servitude, as every true prince does. Now build for us a boat, ordered his austere mistress. Fashion your own oars, and with your own strength make your way across the waters. You shall see the fair possessor of that crystal clear voice. Joyfully the Prince fell to the task. Day by day he labored and planned. Page 124 Hr-High 0 'rn N i' 3 I i o V 6 ' 1 C tai : . 7' -' N 'f r ' 'T 52 H B W th: 9 'DNf- A if il 1 . W 'il V ' ,z ..:'1.fi13-' ' ,I ,J W His muscles ached with weariness and his soft hands were blistered and caloused from the unaccustomed toil, but all ills were as naught by comparison with the secret happiness he drew from the creative activity. He forgot to mope over his lost estate: forgot the stern task-mistress by his side: forgot his own identity in this new pleasure. At last the boat was finished and the oars lay ready. You made no seat for me, said his companion. What does that signify? I intended leaving you at the earliest opportunity anyway. And he skimmed merrily over the skimmering ocean. For hours he pursued a direct and steady course. Then he encountered a ship which he hailed and boarded. After much controversy he succeeded in convincing the crew of his regal station and the worthiness of his mission. So enchanted were they by his eloquence that, being of rather inconsistent natures, they altered their own course in order to transfer him the more rapidly to his objective. Before long the Prince found to his chagrin that the new craft was one of those affairs that wander aimlessly over the seas, no port in view, no steady hand at the helm. Discipline was unknown to the jovial sailors who lived for the pleasure of the moment. The new arrival had momentarily concen- trated their thoughts upon a novel idea, but their minds, like their ship, hopped erratically about, and one gloomy night the unfortunate vessel was struck by a sudden squall and stranded on a beach that to the Prince seemed strangely familiar. At daybreak he swam ashore, finding himself once more in the sleepy little world he had left. The fingers still flashed pink and white from the mountain-crest, but the voices from the depths were hushed. Crushed by failure and inconsolable grief, the Prince surrendered his days to miserable reflections. His suffering was not alleviated by the ill-concealed scorn of his neighbors, who whispered each to each behind their hands. He thought to lay hold of the South Wind. Perhaps he will be wise now and stay at home as We have done. How superior we are! Only one did not mock and chide,-the dark taciturn figure who had been left deserted on the beach. Patiently she stood by the door of his cheerless room, unseen but making her presence known, and called at last in exasperation. Must I wait forever? Your blunder is not irrevocable. Climb the moun- tains with me and forget the missing voice. He came reluctantly, with moody eyes and dejected features, and she led him by torturous ways through almost impenetrable tangles of bushes and vines that pierced and stung his flesh maddeninglyg up bare faces of adamant rock that bruised his knees and tore pitilessly at his groping hands: by devious paths that crept perilously near the edge of abysses whose depths nauseated him, to emerge upon a broad plateau so near the peaks that his heart nearly burst with its pent-up emotion, for the hands were so near that he could discern the polished lustre of their tips. His comparison for the flrst time during their acquaintance had suffered her Page 125 l 0,1-Hfgkwn N . f gi 1 lf f : 3 I .1 , 3 a 6, I 4 c , r .

She spoke to him in musical tones now, but they fell upon deaf ears. Just ahead your reward awaits you, and at the journey's end we part. But remember me when you no longer need me. I am often salled the Blessing of the Ages, but my name is Toil. Toil, he repeated musingly, then scoflingly, Toil, you, the most cruelly delusive of all with whom poor mortals have to deal! See, pointing toward the lowlands, a broad highway paves the way. We might have had an unrestricted road, but you, choosing to hurt me, dragged me over the most excruciatingly difficult paths in existence. A blessing! he continued passion- ately. You have brought me only pain and regret: you are more of a curse than a benefit, and I will finish my journey without you. Up the broad highway, which, though he knew it not, his own weary feet had paved, a carriage was coming toward them. Without one backward glance he ran to meet it, sprang inside, and rode in state to the very crest of the eleva- tion, where he alighted with buoyant step and singing heart. The hands were gone. With a disconsolate cry the Prince flung himself face downward on the unsympathetic gray stones. Who is this bright Being that bends lovingly over his prostrate form? Not Toil, surely, but yes, a glorified Toil who smiles tremendously under his searching gaze, for her face is revealed, her beautiful face with soulful eyes holding out to him on the brink of despair a promise of better things to be. How very beautiful you are! he said softly. I thought you old and ugly. I have lost all that I hold most dear, but if you stay with me, I shall be content. ' Poor blind boy! she replied tenderly, have you not yet learned that it is only through toil that dreams and hopes may be realized? They are not dead, those beautiful fantasies are real and they may yet be yours. Back to his home in the valley she led him. To his home? His kingdom! For on the site of his former humble dwelling arose the Mansion of Fulfilled Hopes and Dreams Realized from which pink fingers beckoned and sweet voices rang out in songs and glad cries of welcome.

The hero takes a last swat at the villian, then he marries the girl and they live happily ever after. Bunk-that's all-bunk. Well, said Mr. Williams, I could tell you of a time when it didn't work out, but- If it's time you're a-needin', said Wally, the janitor. We've got better than a half-hour yet. Jack Williams leaned back against his desk and buried his elbows in the cluttered papers assembled there. Well, he surmised, allowing himself a satis- fied smile, his name was John--John Andrews--and he was a salesman. John liked to sell things: it didn't matter what it was, he could sell it. He could sell a plug hat to a boiler mechanic and make him think it would keep his ears warm. One day John decided not to sell things any more, but to hunt himself a more stable and more profitable job. He wanted a job which needed a man with 10076 confidence in himself, 10076 nerve, and grit enough to shove a proposition down the single track to success-all because he had met The girl: and her name was -- Maude, chorused the listeners. Jack smiled, showing his even teeth. Wrong, he said. All wrong. It is Prudence. Well, he gave up the old job and looked for the work he felt capable of doing, but that was a scarce article in those days. Each prospective employer gave him that old one about, Sorry, but we're full up: and he watched his money go and go until he was down to his very last thin dollar. Of course, Prudence knew nothing of the matter, and John did not tell her because he knew she would want to lend him money. Late one evening, John climbed the stairs to his tiny apartment. He had taken Prudence to a movie and after that to dine. All he could remember was Sha? the man in the flat above him held his I. O. U. for the sum of forty-nine o ars. Just where it all went to was what Sherlock Holmes gets paid for. It was gone-every read cent-and his pocketbook was as flat as the spare tire on my brother's Ford. When he opened the door to his rooms, he started thinking. Here he was: Page 127 org-Hfgb F f 'rn X u ,9 - f . a, H - .4 , A I H i , 9 oN1--'Iii' ' -V V WJVWD, ,,. . , Wy fa guy, not a nickel between him and starvation. No prospects, no hopes, no ideas, no job, not even a trinket that was worth pawning. If that isn't a nice out- look for a man, twenty-three years of age, I don't know what is. He sat down at the tiny table and figured it out. He could live another day on the meal he had just eaten, and after that he could beg a few pennies to keep him until the room rent was due, Then he would be out of luck for sure. When he had given up hope, the door opened and his creditor entered. 'You here?' asked the gentleman in qusetion, taking a quick survey of the room. . 'Yes,' murmured John, dully. 'What is it?' 'I hear you're in financial difl'iculty,' said the man. 'I've been watching you for a long time and I think you're the man I want. Now, I've a propo- sition I want to make. There's a job on B- Street that I want to pull- thirty thousand dollars--fifteen smacks apiece, and I can't do it alone. 'With that money, you can marry that Jane and pull stakes for Europe or South America or Mexico-some place. And all for an hour's work. Does it sound good?' 'It does,' agreed John, 'but I'm not going to accept. I'm not going to sneak about through the alleys like a beaten cur. I'm not going to go through the life of a thief and a robber. I may be poverty itself, but I'm not dead yet. I'm going to stand up for my rights if I get knocked down on every corner. John Andrews is going to stay here and iight. That's what I 'm going to do- FIGI-ITl' The gentleman from the eleventh floor rubbed his chin gingerly. 'Derned if I don't think you're right,' he concluded. 'At least it has the right feel to it. I ought to know. I can tell you the combination of a lock just by the weight of the tumblers. Er-you won't tell?' he added nervously. No,' was the answer, 'I won't. It's every man for himself and the best man wins the pot. It's none of my business what you do so long as it does not concern me.' 'You're right. Will you shake on that?' asked the safeman. 'I must be running along-say, here, the boy brought a telegram while you were gone- plumb forgot all about it-I signed for it. So longl' 'Good-byel' said John, as he tore the envelope and spread the sheet before him. I don't remember the exact words, but I know that a certain lawyer wished to notify a John Andrews that his uncle had chosen this particular time to die and had named his nephew as sole heir to a two-million-dollar estatef' Make it snappy, urged Wally. It's almost time for the whistle. What did he do then? Take Prudence and go to Florida for the winter? Mr. Williams was deep in the realms of an uninteresting ledger. Hey, come to earth! yelled someone. What happened to John then? Jack threw a vacant stare over his shoulder. Oh, that guy? Why-he jumped down the elevator shaft.

U 'Using Your Head .-,- ,-yt !OHN and Tom were on their way to town to buy some radio parts ., ' and to mail a package at the postoffice for John's father. On their way they were discussing the new hookup of Mr. , Ricks, a local inventor. ' A As they passed his house they heard him call: John, are you going to town? Yes, sir, answered John. Could you mail this letter for me? I would like to have it go out in tonight's mail. Yes, Mr. Ricks, and the two boys went to the porch to get the letter. By the way, how is your new hookup. Mr. Ricks? asked John. Well, boys, it seems to work to a certain extent, but not to my satisfaction. Come in, boys, if you have time, and I will show you the set. John and Tom were glad to have a chance to see the workshop and the new set, and they needed not a second invitation. There along the walls were tools in the neatest order and gauges of different kinds, but on the work bench was the neatest and best-looking set they had ever seen. ' John, said Mr, Ricks, after he had explained several of the line points of the set, in this coil here, pointing to a small, compactly wound coil, is the most important part of the set. I have wound this coil in a different way and it is insulated better than any I ever made, but yet there seems to be a defect somewhere in the coil. I would give anybody fifty dollars if he could find the trouble. John, taking a better look at the coil, said: What form of acid did you use in soldering, a solid or a liquid? A liquid, John. I always use a liquid, for I think I get better results with it, said Mr. Ricks. Miz Ricks, I had a trouble in a coil and could not find it until I remem- bered I had used a liquid acid in soldering, and thought maybe I had dropped a little acid on the coil, and sure enough a tiny bit of insulation was destroyed, causing a short. Maybe that is your trouble, Mr. Ricks. And then they examined the coil, and found something had removed part of the insulation. Well, said Tom, we must be going. after Mr. Ricks had fixed the defect and they got the letter and proceeded down the street. At the postofiice John Went to give the man at the window a one-dollar bill for a stamp when he noticed a fifty-dollar bill with a note, saying A gift to a boy who uses his head. JAMES DARRAH, '29 Page 129 1- HI of' 54, The Keepers of the Fortress HE mellow glow of the warm Indian summer was over land and sea. You know the kind of an afternoon it was-the air golden with sunshine, an autumn haze softening the frost-touched fields . and blending the brilliant colors of the late fall foliage. Nan, Emma, Harold and Dan were down by the sea, playing in the warm sand. Emma and Dan lived in a farmhouse not far away. Today they were entertaining their cousins, whose home was in a nearby city. Let's build a fort, Harold said, after a time. We could use this big bowlder for a lookout tower and build an inner and outer wall. 'Twould be fun. 'AOh, forts are old stories, objected his sister, Nan. Can't we find some- thing new to play? 'ABut I want to build the fort, Harold insisted. Don't you, Dan? Dan nodded assent. You girls needn't help, if you don't like, he added. You will have your way, of course, Hal, as you always do, complained Nan. Come on, Emma. They shan't spoil the afternon for us, shall they? The two girls wandered along the beach looking for treasures cast up by the sea. All the while Emma was talking earnestly. At first Nan did not seem to agree, but by and by they turned and Went back to the place where the boys were hard at work excavating a moat and throwing up the sand for earth- works on the inner side. Emma put her hands to her mouth in the form of a trumpet. Ho! fortress-builders, she called, Will ye come forth for parley? What's parley? asked Dan, scarcely looking up from his work. Will you talk this plan over with us? ls not this fair? . Emma's last words roused Dan. I can go halfway, I guess. I would not on such an afternoon: it wouldn't fit the day, would it? Ha! Harold laughed and shook his head. If we did not agree, we should only have to get over it, he said, and that's too much bother. The four withdrew for parley to the shade of an old pier. We'll build the fort together, this was Emma's plan. After that, we'll each defend the fortress in turn. I have thought of a -- I know! exclaimed Harold. It's asking us to talk things over with them. I was sure they would come to it pretty soon. Of course, the girls overheard this remark. Nan was about to retort, when Emma shook her head warningly. Let me answer them, she said. Once more, forming a trumpet with her hands, she cried in the language of the old-time knights: We are not come, oh, fortress-builders, to declare ourselves in favor of the game as it has been played in the past. We have a plan, though, for building, storming and defending a fortress, name for the fort and names for those attacking. The one who is defending the fort will guess the names of his enemies from the way in which they attack. Page 130 .ff GF 0,1-Hfgbs 4 5 'E ty ,Y is 9 'W I . 1, . , y' I R, 449' J 1 ga. IW, . vm- azz ,, v A A swf? ,fffflf 'LQ 4' f ' It was a fine large fort that they built, with the big bowlder for citadel and outlook. There were inner and outer walls and a moat and everything else they had ever read about in stories. When they had nearly finished the fort, Emma disappeared. A few minutes later she came back from her home bring- ing a small roll and a long, slender staff. This is our pennant, she said, and'now let us select the first defender. The choice fell upon Harold. Emma gave him the banneria sheet of heavy paper cut in the form of a pennant. He fixed the staff in the sand close to the big bowlder. On the banner Emma had done in crayon the long word Char- acter. And she had spelled it correctly, too. Perhaps she had asked her mother how-I don't know. Harold was watching now for enemies who would attempt to destroy the fortress and take him prisoner. He had not long to wait. His companions made a rush for the fort, all of them armed with the tools with which they had been digging in the sand. They did not reach the fort, however. Nan fought the other two back, and made first Emma and then Dan give up to her their weapons. I want them, she cried. I want to take the fort by myself and have all the glory. Is it fair to share the victory, you say? What do I care about fairness? If I am stronger than you -- Come on, Foe Selfishnessln shouted Harold from the fort, guessing the part Nan Was acting. I'll meet you fairly and down you forever. Foe Selfishness was not so easily overcome, however. Nor was she willing to meet the Captain of Fort Character fairly. Throwing something over the outer wall, she ran back toward her companions as if giving them the attack. Harold waited until the enemy was at some distance from the fort. Then his curiosity got the better of him. The Hsomethingn his enemy had thrown into the fortress gleamed in the sand a few feet from him. He leaped into the space between the inner and outer walls and ran to the object, to find it merely a bit of tin glittering in the sunshine. At the moment he was off guard, Foe Selfishness slipped in through the forbidden entrance. The captain of the fort turned to find his enemy defying him inside the outer walls. But, Eoe Selfishness, you agree not to come in on that side. The enemy laughed. Captain of Fort Character, have you not yet learned that Selflshness doesn't care how she gets her ends, if only she can get them? she cried. But she shall not get them! And with a big effort, into which he put all his strength, Harold drove the enemy out of the fortress. 1 Oh, but I am glad to be myself again! Nan exclaimed, as she went back to her companions. I don't like being Selfishness the least little bit. ' ' When Harold had driven back Foe Laziness and Eoe Cheating, Nan, Emma and Dan were each in turn made captain of Fort Character, By fighting hard and watchfulness they succeeded in putting to rout a great many enemies: Foe There's No Harm in a Lie Once in a While, Foe Put It Off Until Tomorrow, and- But you can guess the others, can't you?

HAT, HO! cried the King, as the Prince entered his father's courtroom in his 1919 five-passenger flivver. Why in the h- don't you wear chains? Kelly-Springfields, pater, but I'll answer all your questions --3--4 after I ind a parking space for little Lena, replied his son, as he ' came to a stop at the foot of his throne, after running over several of the ladies-in-waiting. Where can I park the longest? Leave the can where it is and come up here! roared the King, now thor- oughly aroused. He threw his scepter and hit the Prime Minister in the eye. That personage threw it back and hit his Royal Highness in approximately the same place. 'iTwo orders of beeksteak! cried the court jester, and was almost drowned by the contents of a fish bowl thrown by the Queen, who had just appeared on the scene. In the confusion that followed, the Prince got safely out of the room with- out having even a single hair of his well sta-combed head out of place. Light- ing a cigarette, he sauntered over to what looked like a servant dressed in a tin suit and asked the way to his room and where the elevator Was. Receiv- ing no reply, he lifted up a lid over the place where the servant's face should have been, and found that for some unknown reason the man had gone off and left his clothes. Left to his own resources, the Prince went through sev- eral rooms, finally coming to the wine cellar. Brushing aside the cobwebs from a small flask, he took off the stopper and sampled it. This is outrageous! he managed to say after much sputtering. Not even fifty per cent. I must speak to father about this. Shouldering a two-gallon keg, he set out to find a bedroom. About two miles farther he found a room to his liking, making, however, a mental note to have the wine cellar moved up closer. He was awakened only once that night, and that was by the King. Move over, commanded his Royal Highness. You had all the bed last night. The next morning the Prince woke up with a slight headache, which was soon gone after a plunge into a fountain outside the window. After dressing, he folded up the bed and went to look for the ice box. Not being able to find anything in the way of food, he decided to go for a little ride in the Lizzie. He found the car still intact in the courtroom. Getting in, he drove out of the room into a large reception hall and down a long Hight of steps, finally coming to the castle gates. Finding them locked, he picked up little Lena, climbed over the wall and drove on. In hopes that he might find a lunch counter open, he drove around town, but was disappointed and started for the country. About ten, down the mountain on which the castle was situated, he found a little cottage in which the owners were just sitting down to break- Page 132 .fr I O91-H1645 5 1 ii, i glgvigi?

I must get back, he said, and ask pater about that wonderful recreation of the kings and feudal lords we read so much about in the Alma Mater- riding-the-serf. When he returned to the castle it was almost noon, owing to the fact that it was a long uphill climb. At the appearance of the Lizzie the courtroom was empty in a surprisingly short timeg only the Queen remained. The King was nowhere to be seen. Have you seen the King anywhere since yesterday? asked the Queen. If he's been out with that chorus girl again, I'll get a divorce and marry that handsome movie star that was here last week. A sudden recollection made the Prince pause. This is no place for mel he yelled. l'm going back to college. May I go too? asked the Queen. Yes, go to, replied her loving son and sailed out of the courtroom whis- tling lt Ain't Gonna Reign No More. He was never heard of again, but a traveling salesman said that he had seen him in a large hotel in New York. Whether he was a waiter or not, he didn't say: anyway you can't believe everything these traveling salesmen say.

RAU STOKER Phoioqrczphs of Quality 112 m.JllU STREET 4 , Official Photographer for Maple Leaves SECRE T AR Y 01' S T EN OGRAPHERP ln one of our well-known intelligence tests, this question is asked: If you call a. calfs tail a, leg, how many legs has the calf? The answer naturally is four, because calling the tail a leg cloesn't change the fact. Calling a stenographer a secretary doesn't alter the fact, either. There is a world of difference between the meaning of Ustenographern and secretary, and this difference in meaning is now clearly understood by the business man: the use of the term secre- tary makes him expect more. The young person who nowadays sails blithely into the prospective employer's office under the colors of secretary is expected to live up to the title-and must, or make room for the trained secretary. A Stenographer- takes dictation and transcribes it. ln fact, a stenographer is merely a begin- ner. A stenographer is one who has learned the foundational subjects, short- hand and typewriting, and needs only the superstructure of secretarial technique to become a secretary. The difference in earning power, the opportunity for inter- esting, creative work, and the greater chances for promotion, all made secre- tarial work more desirable. A stenogra- pher works under direction. lt is dis- tinctly worth while to become a secretary in all that the term implies. A Secretary- also takes dictation and transcribes it: but this is only the starting point. Short- hand and typewriting are the tools of his trade: what he has above the neck and the training he has received in secretarial technique determine very largely his value beyond that point. Definite training for secretarial service puts him into the upper reaches of distinctive achievement. A real secretary comes very close to being in the executive class. The secretary runs largely on his own motive power. A SECRETARIAL COURSE is the Phone 2257-j. answer to the Secretarial training problem.
