We are aware that it is much like baying at the moon, but wc are unable to leave this building with a troubled conscience, therefore impelled by a conscientious desire to relieve suffering humanity, we submit the following: No pupil should ever take it upon himself to contradict a teacher. This proposition ought to be self-evident. A class is conducted upon the assumption that the teacher knows what he is talking about but it does not necessarily follow that the converse is true. All people whose education is run down at the heels and are contemplating a high school course would do well to digest one of those much advertised courses in character reading for it will come in handy when addressing teachers. Chalk and erasers are furnished by the Board of Education as accessories to the blackboards and not for improvised missiles of love or war. Many bonchcads still have difficulty as to the exact interpretation to be put on this ruling but the teachers will be glad to help you in these matters occasionally. Adopted, January 14, A.

John Cummings has been appointed assistant director. The first concert was given in assembly during November, where the accurate technique and expert playing well demonstrated the careful training given the boys by Mr. Fay. The fall schedule included an out-of-town trip to Niagara Falls on October second, which some of the members enjoyed. Also we must thank our band most heartily for their splendid cooperation with the athletic teams manifested in the rousing marches and songs played at the games. (SrrljpBtra A most successful season was predicted for the orchestra when nearly all of the former members with some new additions took their places for the first rehearsal last September. At the time when this book went to press, one concert had been given in assembly, which was enjoyed by all. With a promise of another in the near future, Mr. Fay has been working the orchestra on real Symphony selections which have proved far from difficult for the players. Carl Frank, a member of the graduating class, is assistant director and plays first violin in the concert chair. (glpp (Clubs UNDER the able direction of Miss Ilogan and Mr. Spouse, our new chorus instructor from Binghamton, the Glee Clubs have made re- markable progress within the last few months. In the fore part of December the Boys’ Glee Club went over to East High and sang several selections in their assembly. They were cheered with the greatest enthu- siasm. Since the days of the “Canary Club” in 1918 there has been nothing that could even compare with the remarkable chorus singing of the Glee Clubs this season of which West High is justly proud. « � $ $ thirty-nine MID YEAR ROOK ■ (Irav rit'cKKK Van Riper Ci.akkk Pavnb fiRAU I V HC IIuWAKH C KliY SaCNDPRS RkDFEHN Mahpi.es Welch Twit Stark Snyder $ntuir paii DRAMATIS TERSOA.

Much time and hard labor were spent in behalf of its successful production. The success was due to the conscientious work of the director, Miss Tripp; the cast and the management. Miss See and Mr. LaBounty assisted in making up the scenery. It was as much a financial success as a dramatic one, even exceeding the expectations of the business staff. The play was well attended by the students of West High and East High, as well as by many of our alumni. $ £ ❖ Sty 3lmtinr $lap The Junior Plays given by the classes of January and June 1921 were produced April 30, 1920. The performances were under the direction of Mrs. Ellis. The plays lasted about forty minutes each, and were fol- lowed by dancing in the corridors.

At the time this book goes to press not many definite plans have been made for it, and the committees have not yet been ap- pointed, but we know that in view of the fact that these classes have always met with success in their undertakings, this Senior Dance will be no exception. , S 31munr Snnrp On the evening of March 26, 1920, the two 1921 classes gave their Junior Dance. Everyone who attended knows what a thoroughly great success it was. Among the many unusual features was the danc- ing on both the first and second floors, thus allowing more room for all the dancers. Shield’s Orchestra furnished the music, which helped to add to the spirit of the occasion. Another unique feature of the dance was the artistic manner in which the halls were decorated. Besides the crepe paper trimmings, dozens of balloons of every color swung from the lights. All the committeemen worked hard for the success of the dance, and the good time that everyone enjoyed was due largely to them. The chair- men of the various committees were as follows: Carl Metzger, general chairman; Raymond Miller, decorations; Boyd Mullan, music; Florence Lintz, refreshments; Jerome Lcadley, publicity; Ella Troughton, recep- tion. The patrons and patronesses were the parents of the committee chairmen. forty-three A{ID YEAR BOOK Ever since the first day the class of June '21 appeared on the horizon at West High it has been in the van of school affairs. Nothing has been put on by this class that didn’t go across with a bang. Its members have been conspicuous on the Occident Staff as well as in athletics. John Shaw and Fred Wellington, two successive editors- in-chief, belong to this class. In cross-country, William Babcock did his best for the capture of the trophy. Albert Makin and George Stifter have been prominent in both soccer and basketball. Gordon Walton, manager of this season’s quint, is also a member of June '21. And we must not forget that A1 Makin was elected president of the Students Association in the last election by an overwhelming majority. The officers of the class are: Philip Goldsmith, president; Selma Curry, vice-president; John Shaw, secretary, and Emmett Lynn, cheer- leader. These officers, especially the president, have worked to their utmost to make June ’21 a leader in school activities. The class advisors are Mrs. Lyman and Mr. Bezant. Many years ago when the members of this class first directed their steps fearfully toward West High, they didn’t dream that some day in the dark future the time would come when they would be upper classmen and members of such a famous class. We began with a soph party at Hallowe’en time, at which everyone was painfully embarrassed at first, waiting for some one else to start things. This party was followed up a few months later with a sleigh-ride, which everyone said was the best ever. When we finally became juniors we decided to celebrate with a picnic at Corbitt’s Glen, and it sww a celebration! It was there that Mr. Ford displayed his ability for roasting sausages which cost him not a little afterward, for this past fall, after we’d seen how well he did it, we set him to work again in Genesee Valley Park. This last Hallowe’en we had another party which attracted so much attention that two policemen had to be stationed at the doors to keep the crowds out. I he class was well represened on the winning cross-country team this year, besides having members on the soccer, basketball, baseball and swimming teams. The class officers are; President. Guy Frisbie; vice-president, Mary Shedd: secretary, Katherine Menzie; treasurer, Henry Martin; cheer- leader, Richard Mason. The class advisers are Miss Whitney and Mr. Ford.

Our advisors are Miss Manchester and Mr. Jenner. Florine Reynolds. laiutarg 1023 The entrance of the class of January ’23 into West High was truly a momentous and important even in the history of the school. Among the members were poets, authors, orators, athletes and others who were to shine among the famous of West High. The Freshman year was devoid of exciting events with the exception of the usual reception and a soccer game in which our team defeated the East High Frosh with a 1 to 0 score. The Sophomore year of this class has been supreme in its events, the party of March 20 being probably the greatest social event ever staged by a Sophomore class. The class has also been active in school affairs and athletics, winning the Class Swimming Championship of the school. The season’s events closed with a grand Hallowe’en party enjoyed by everyone and put down by all who attended as one of the most enjoyable times ever experienced. Here endeth nobly, the history of the “Live Wire Class.” dlmtr 1323 Along with the class of June ’23 came real West High spirit. Even the Seniors had to admire us for the way we attended the many activities of the school. Our first memorable event was the Frosh Reception which was well attended and enjoyed by all. The Soph Masque Party was a wonderful success, in fact so much so that the members of the other classes could not resist the temptation of Our members on the Executive Council are: Esther Clark, Marjorie Costello and Garrett Crcbbin. The girls’ officers arc: President, Marjorie Costello; vice-president, Elizabeth Grauel; secretary, Margaret Gemandt; treasurer, Dorothy Walker; cheer-lcader, Dorothy Clarkson.

Don't you wish you could have been in the balcony watching it? Oh! You don’t believe it, hey? Well, we should worry, we had .the feeds. We would have you understand that during the rehearsals for the Senior Play the curtain was lowered for ten seconds in the second act to indicate a lapse of five hours. During these five hours certain things were supposed to happen in the play. Not so, however, on November 24 and 26. The Senior Play cast, directors and managers took a look into the future and saw that at the rehearsals on those dates this interval would come about six o’clock and so planned accordingly. The result—Oh, mamma. On Wednesday, the twenty-fourth, Miss. Tripp and the cast kept to themselves. Under this plan the management missed a big treat, in other words, Berenice Synder's famous shrimp salad; Dorothy Welch’s nut- and-fruit-bread jell sandwiches; Fritz Stark’s chocolate cake, (by the way Fritz doesn’t like chocolate cake, so we’ll have to hand it to her for bringing it), Miss Tripp’s delicious coffee and Dorothy Marples’ wonder- ful sandwiches, were on the menu. And then we had some ice cream and —sh-h-h, sh-h-h—some cider. But, alas! This could not last. The girls informed the fellows that “God helps those that help themselves.” So the boys of the cast and the management had to scramble to supply the eats for the twenty-sixth. The girls, however, were not so bad as might have been supposed for they produced a pan of salad, a cake and two pounds of candy. The poor fellows got the sandwiches down town, some sandwiches, too, although the opinion of the girls was not asked. Gordon Chambers brought a butter cake concocted and baked by himself. It won the approval of the girls, too. And again that delicious coffee and—cider—! Somehow we all became filled but not full, however, by the time we were through. The management declared that they had missed some- thing on the previous occasion. Evidently they know a good time when they see one. If you don’t believe this, look among the snap-shots.

With an “Eden” you can do the wash- ing in one-third of the time and the clothing will not only be washed better, but it will last longer. Between two and three cents’ worth of electricity will do the washing for an average family. Our own faith in the Eden Electric Washer is such that we gladly send them out on trial.

SENIO F — ANNUAL W EST HIGH SGHOOL MRS. BEULAH W LYMAN AND MR. E. DEMARS BEZANT whose assistance and advice to the class of June '21 have contrib- tributed very materially to the success that attended its undertakings gantas SENIO ANNUAL W EST HIGH SOHO OL HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF JU%E 1921 ELLA D. TROUGHTON WE are now Seniors. Every September and January as a new contingent of Frosh begins its career at West High, we are carried back to that day in September 1917, when the class of June 1921 swept into West High School. The boys carried their hats and lunches to class and the girls just couldn't find 55; our schedules were lost and so were we. But soon our books were bought and lost and each of ns thought ourselves exact images of Sophs—or maybe Seniors I During our “short-trouser and pigtail' year our class gave a reception. We were strange to the school and the school strange to us, but we showed our courage and brought our parents to see the faculty. That same year many picnics were held by various recitation classes—loads of fun. sandwiches, ants, salad and spidery bugs. In September 1918 there came a great moment in our young lives—the acquisition of sophistication! During our first year we had made many new friendships and renewed old ones so that the- amalgamation of the boys' and girls’ sections this year made a splendid feeling throughout the class. All this year the patriotism that swept America ran high in West High. Sewing and knitting by the girls and far- mering” by the boys—everything was willingly done. A dull vacation was enjoyed when school and movies had to be closed for the “flu” epidemic. Then came the “Soph Hop,” which, judging from the number who suddenly became Sophs, was a decided success. Most of us had spring fever this year, but managed to pass some of the exams. The third year started with a bang. It was then that the sterling worth of Phil Goldsmith, our President became ap- parent in every undertaking. Our Hallowe'en masquerade was a success from beginning to end when the decoration committee, with the aid of Mr. Bezant, succeeded in covering our tell-tale footsteps. Next came the sleigh-ride which ended with a dance Eight around an oil-stove in the girls’ gym. The girls also asserted their rights by giving a Leap Year Party for which Miss Man- chester and Mrs Lyman gave a few suggestions and helped to run things off .in fine shape. The Junior Dance and Junior Plays were presented with great success and they can proudly hold a place in CSt High s history. The last class function of the year was a trip to Co- burg which greatly benefited our health and geographical knowledge, and from which we emerged with pockets full of Canadian money. Our only casualties were a few sandwiches and a baseball. In September 1920, our Senior year started. Our presi- dent, Philip Goldsmith, and vice-president, Selma Curry, were re-elected to carry on through our last year. In the fall a Hallowe’en Party was held as well as several informal parties in the girls’ gym. The Senior Play and Senior Dance were among the very best ever produced in the school. The girls’ basketball team continued their good work this year and won the interclass championship for the second time, to say nothng of the cup won at the “meet” held in our third year. The boys have also been well represented on teams, and a goodly share of captains and managers came from our class. The first and second placed in the School Declamation Contest were won by members of June ‘21, a notable achieve- ment for our boys. For two years the OCCIDENT staff was almost cntrcly comprised of members of our class. West High Day, too, supplied places for many of us to work. This last year the General Committee was composed almost wholly of members oB our class. Then at last, the parting of the ways in many directions. But each one cherishes the pleasant memory of happy days, all too short, spent by the famous class of June, 1921 within the classic halls of Alma Mater. RNI O ANNUAL HIGH SOHO OL Troughton Lynn Streebing Shaw Curry Goldsmith CLASS OFFICERS 1920 - 21 IN September class officers were elected for the Senior year. Philip Goldsmith had served so well throughout the Junior year that his re-election was a matter of course. A vice-president needs to be more than a person who can occas- ionally take the president’s place and in Selma Curry the class has a vice-president who has worked hard in behalf of every activity from freshman year on. Selma also was a hold-over from the Junior officers, and next to Phil has probably done more for the class than any other member. A wise choice was made in electing Ella Troughton to the secretaryship. She has always recorded our meetings with an accuracy and detail that embarrassed some of us and sounded like biographical sketches. John Shaw Is a wizard when it comes to finance and the class in electing him treasurer showed sound judg- ment. John's activities are of a varied nature, but when it comes to a money proposition, lie is right at home and does his best work. The vociferous expressions, of class spirit have been under the direction of May Streebing and Emmett Lynn and during the Senior year, class meetings were always full of pep when they led the cheers. The class of June ‘21 is proud of its officers for they are true leaders of the class, Beat of all in all respects.” Nine ft SENIO FVw ANNUAL HIGH S G H O OL Shaw Wellington Goldsmith Metzger Curry Troughton Hattersley Stone CABINET OF THE CLASS OF JUNE 1921 THE many class activities in the Senior year call for a vast amount of work which naturally devolves upon the presi- dent of the class. But there arc so many things for him to do that to ask hm to assume these numerous duties would be uu- fair. The class therefore voted him the right to appoint a Class Cabinet to work in conjunction with him. The follow, ing were appointed: Carl Metzger, John Shaw, Frederic Wel- lington, Harold Stone, Selma Curry, Ella Troughton and Eleanor Hattersley. Ttn ot SENIO F . y . N N X_J y . L W E S HT HIGH SCHOOL Downs Leadley Whitchousc Lynn Shaw Bezant Wellington Metzger Stone Vannuccini Goldsmith Lyman Curry Doering Hattcrslcy Troughton THE CLASS COUNCIL THU Executive Committee of the class was organized during the Junior year to save time in class legislation and management. Jo a class of over one hundred and fifty it is almost impossible to get all the class members to- gether, and to secure their opinions on subjects up for discus- sion is even harder. To improve this system, representatives in an Executive Committee were appointed by the president at the ratio of one representative for every ten class members. The plan was to hold meetings of the committee to consider matters that could be handled by them; then each member had to secure the opinon of his constituency of class members. Thus the final vote showed the real sentiment of the class members on the matter in hand. The members of the Execu- tive Committee during Senior year were: Selma Curry. Her- nice Doering, Irene Downs, Gertrude Eisenbrey, Florence Lints, Zillah Vannuccini. Reginald Baron, Jerome Leudlev, Emmet Lynn. Carl Metzger, John Shaw, Elmer Smith, Merton Carver and Frederic Wellington. EWvm SENIOR.

Second, To Mr. C. A. LaBounty, we leave the never-failing supply of block-heads, hoping that he may find some use for them in his dumb-bell factory. Third, To Late Beers we bequeath a new supply of descriptives, trusting that the numerous “prunes , “birds , “snow- shoes”, and “crazy yaps” around school will be benefited and Late’s vocabulary enlarged. Fourth, To Bill Bush we leave the surplus of Norman Lyon's oratorical ubiliticx with sincere hopes that he may find some- thing to talk about. Fifth, To Lester Slocum we give one page of advertising in the Occident to assist his attempts to keep his name before the public. Sixth, To Mr. Bennett we bequeath a blank phonograph record upon which to record those magic words of deliverance, “Be- ginning with the rear scats, the assembly is dismissed.” Seventh, To Marjorie Brownell we leave a season ticket to Miss Manchester’s office. Eighth, To the class of 1950 we bequeath Mrs. Lyman, knowing that she will not wish to advise another class before that time. Ninth, To the head of the Classics Department we bequeath Mr. Bezant with the hope that lie will soon follow a good example. Tenth, To Ted Mooney we bequeath a bottle of Harold Stone’s Hair Stickum. Eleventh, To those so inclined we leave the “primrose path” to Doc's and everlasting perdition.

Life's broad road gleams white before us, Leading forward, beckoning on. Four long years we have traveled together, Now a part of our journey is gone. In the classroom and the corridor We have seen each passing day Bringing with it joy and friendship Which we’ll treasure all the way. Those ideals which we have learned here On our path shall be our guide, And for them to Alma Mater We will always point with pride. For, in going out to new things She has made our vision clear, True devotion, cheerful service She has brought within our sphere. These four years have meant much to us In our work and in our play, Joyous, and filled o'erflowing With bright happiness each day. Old West High holds out a vision Which we’ll weave into our life. Our strength we'll use in helping others On the road that eases strife. So with freshened hearts and courage We are starting round a bend Where new labours now await us, And success lies at the etui. But through all our lifelong journey, Wheresoever we may be, We will thank thee. Alma Mater, And our hearts all turn to thee. l'AULINK MBADKK. 1 .N the fall of 1936, I was travelling in France, spreading propaganda for an anti-grape-juicc-and-lemonade campaign which had been started in the United States by a few. faithful workers—Jack Shaw at the head, and Bernice Doering. Gor- don Walton, Marie Murphy and Elmer Smith working under him. Cigars, cigarettes, chewing-gum and eider having been long ago abolished and formulae for tea and coffee-making having been in force so long that people had forgotten how the real thing tasted, we thought it was up to us to start some- thing. Sitting in my hotel room on the evening of November 3d, I was slightly discouraged because I could think of no other luxury of which to deprive my compatriots, when I was called to the long-distance telephone booth. What was my surprise to hear from the other end of the line the well-known voice of my old friend, Ella Troughton! After miscellaneous in- quiries Ella informed me that Zillah Vannuccini, whose pri- vate secretary she was, was running for the office of President as the Retrogressive party candidate against Phil Goldsmith on the Democratic ticket. For eight years Norman Lyon had occupied the White House as a Republican President, ably assisted by his Secretary of State, Reginald Baron. However, Normal had declined a third term, saying he wished to retire and' devote his time to writing scenarios for Kenneth Clark, successor to Fatty Arbuckle. Parts of thid I had already learned from the papers, but newspapers differ so, especially when there are such different correspondents as Florence Lintz and Harold Bagg. Ella suggested I start home next morning • and arrive in time to hear the final results of the election, stay- ing in Washington until after March 4th, and incidentally missing the cold and soupy weather prevalent in Rochester Forty-on since Max Uideonse was appointed weather-uian. I promised Ella I would pack at once and we said good-bye till th« next evening. Next morning 1 put in an early appearance at the Ether- eal Rapid Transit Company's office and caught the eight o'clock ship. It really did not surprise me much to meet the pilot of the ship in the person of Frank Saunders. Frank always did have a bent for soaring—away from various points! We exchanged profuse greetings .and information about our classmates and Frank told me many improvements had been made on the machine by Melville Leon and his competent assistants, Bernice Snyder and Lois Reynolds. Then the plane started and we made ourselves comfortable in the many dif- ferent compartments of the airboat. Looking about me, I discovered Mildred Fucrness and Mary Acker besmeared with grease and busily oiling the vital parts of the machine. In the cafeteria were two neat waiters who proved to be John Jameson and Gregory Dugan. They assured me living on a plane was the best of amusements, never monotonous, and very good for the health. When we were about half-way across the Atlantic, we sighted a steamer far below, signalling us. We slowed up, dropped down a couple of miles and picked up a basketful of passengers. When the basket was hauled up, lo and be- hold there were the ReVerend Thomas Wolff and Richard Sedgwick! Tommy had reformed Dick and taken him over to Siam with him where they had succeeded in converting a great number of the natives. While Dick was busy in construct- ing an improved brand of mud-huts. Tommy would distribute cough drops, camomile tea and Sunday-School papers. Now ENI OP -A� N N Xjr L, they were home for a short vacation, and were to bring back Pauline Meader, the noted medical missionary. It was sunset when we reached the field outside of New York. We promised to keep in touch with one another in future. All expressed great interest in the election although our worthy missionaries were unable to vote. Then I bade my new-old friends goodbye and took the train to Washing- ton. The trip is not long, but I had time, to read a couple of magazines purchased from the newsboy. Eugene Brick. One of them happened to be “Life”, and to my amazement and horror I found that Frederic Wellington was the edi- tor-in-chief. The “Duke” had also several West High-ites on his Staff—Sara Chase, Virginia Fumald, Elsie Holley and Ella Bickford were burning midnight oil drawing cartoons; Albert Makin was employed in collecting jokes taken from real human specimens. When he was hard up for jokes he would run over and visit Emmet Lynn and Ted Inderlied in their Chinese Restaurant, or Valentine Zahn and Franklin Dix on their model rhubarb-farm, or Boyd Mullan and his gang of Federated Street Cleaners where might be found Ralph Hoyt. Floyd Smith and George Guthrie. Ella met me at the station and we went to a quiet, exclus- ive little restaurant for nine o'clock luncheon. Ella promised me I would have a surprise—and 1 did! The place is run wholly by West High girls and is a regular meeting-place for alumnae. Their chief cook is Olive Bacon who has made her- self famous with her home-brewed ketehup and haml-grated horseradish. She effectively bosses around her kitchen a bevy of less accomplished cooks—Gladys Bolt ., Dorothy Marples, and Florence Murphy among them. The waitresses are all “good to look upon” and there you may find Kathryn Bcazlev, Marie Geycr and Lily Rose. On account of its all-feminine management, men are strongly attracted to it. Perhaps that was how we happened to find there, at a corner table, Harold Stone, the noted lawyer. That was a surprise, and we were soon talking over old times. Harold informed us he was working on a mysterious burglary Forty-MO ry WESnr HIGH SCHOOL case involving the theft of a half dozen lemonade knives and a soup fork from the White House during President Lyon’s last administration. All evidence seemed to prove that Carl Metzger was the criminal, Carl having taken French leave six months ago. They had tracked him, however, to Oregon, and were carefully watching the movements of a band of miners, noted for their outlawry. This band was composed of Gerald Dyer, Frank Honold, Norman O'Brien, Joseph Picciotti, How- ard Trimby and Kenneth Punnett. We all began to tell what we knew about our different classmates. Harold pulled out of his pocket a recent number of the OCCIDENT aud we dis- covered several additions to the West High faculty. Grace Green is the hea P of the modern language department; Doro- thy Brown, of the classics, with Merton Carver teaching Greek under her and Sura Wile, Latin. I ena Ashenberg has gone in for Civics, Elsa Preische is teaching Voluminous Geometry and Solid Trigonometry, while her friend, Lillian Geminder, contents herself with indicting upon the students, who arc smaller than ever, the elements of Fourth Dimension Calculus aix logarithms. Alfred Codd is the new principal, the place having proved too much for his predecessor, Philip Wickens, who has resigned and is devoting himself to writing a new “trot” for Virgil students as hard up as sympathetic Phil once was. George Waldo is a teacher in the English Depart- ment, and the noted author of successful plays which have been produced at the Park and Princess Theatres here. It was eleven o'clock when we left the restaurant with promises meet again during the winter. The next day, while Ella was consulting with Zillah as to their party platform, I went down to the Capitol and attended a session of the severity-fourth Congress. Judge of my sur- prise when I spied from the visitors’ balcony the familiar faces of Eunice Hutchison, Kathryn Sutorius’ Sadie White- house, Margaret Neun, Grace I-cigh, Alice Foster aud Ruth Dodds-and they were only a few of the women representatives. Sadie and Alice had been sent from Texas where they had made a neat little fortune in oil stocks. Grace. Kuthrvn and Margaret wen- from California where they have become great- E 1ST I O ANNUAL ly interested in enlarging America bv taking the tops off mountains and carting them out into the ocean to build new cities on. Eunice and Ruth represented Maine, and were soon to bring Tip the question of whether or not houseeats should be licensed. Among the men I found ray old class-mates. Ed- ward1 Frankewich, Albert Ward, Floyd Simpson and John Mc- Carthy. The Speaker, Erwin Grau, seemed to have a weight on his mind. They were discussing the question of importing our Limburger cheese or making it ourselves, und after a heated debate between Edward and Floyd, the vote was greatly in favor of home manufacture. Roberta Wignall, Marion Bryan and Leah Clark have a dairy in Doc’s old drug store, where they make enough to supply a whole continent. Such practical suggestions as these our women representatives have introduced into Congress. On my way home 1 purchased a paper which I read while awaiting Ella’s return, for wc were going to dinner that night with some friends of Ella's whose names she would not tell me. In its pages. I found more familiar names. The Eastern champion team of women basketball players were practising hard in preparation for their ganut with the European cham- pions in the spring. Among our players were Gertrude Eiscn- brey, Margaret Powell, Dorothy Kennedy, May Streebing and Ruth Stafford. In the music columns was advertised a con- cert to be given that evening by the noted Neapolitan trio com- posed of Carl Frank, violinist: Alfred Kumerow, tenor; Selma Curry, soprano; with Ruth Walker at the piano. Eleanor Ilattcrsley’s aid is often required in the bass parts which Mr. Kumerow cannot reach. Ruth Woods has a regular engage- ment as aecompnnist with the Parsells Marimba Band. George has organized an orchestra of eight pieces played by Carter Hughey, Ernest Loos. Harold Calnan, Roland George. Lester Meeks, Clarence Decker, Cortland Wilson and himself. Among the advertisements were highly recommended Koppler's Kute Kannod Komplcxions and Fleckenslein’s artificial eye-lashes. Josephine and Helen have a laboratory together where they concoct mixtures for their beauty-desiring sisters. One of their most popular products is the Dimple-Denter. invented • Forty-lli WEST HIGH SOHO OL by their co-worker, Muriel Fay. I was engrossed in this news when Ella's return was an- nounced. We left at once. As we entered a taxi, something in his voice made me look twice at the driver, and—would you believe it!—George Stifter! So busily did we converse on the way that we barely escaped with our appetites from a collision. George said his company was run by Odd Braaton and Ralph Forrest, and that two other fellow-students. Harold Soule and Charles Rudolf, were expert mechanics employed by the com- pany. When we arrived at the new Roosevelt Hotel and met our dinner guests. I was indeed amazed to find none others than Mildred Sclieibe, Dorothea Bedwin and Elizabeth Frei. Mildred entertained us at- dinner with stories of her new hospital for broken-down returned missionaries. Dorothea is her head- nurse, and Elizabeth concocts tempting dishes for' the patients. Mildred performs all the difficult surgical operations herself, assisted by her competent understudies. Dorothy Wright and Gladys Saunders. I told them they might expect soon to have Thomas Wolff and Dick Sedgwick as patients. That started us talking and talk we did, both long and loudly. Finally, someone suggested we go to a theater—if it were not too late. We arrived just a the curtain went up on the second act. It was a ballet number and well executed. As I focused my glasses on the stage, I uttered an exclamation— “Irene Downs! Don’t you see her—the cuto bobbed onct And if there aren't Elizabeth Kingston and Caroline Ritter!” Sure enough. We found afterwards they were touring with the Stcinkump-Lowe Comedy Company. Henry and Richard have formed a very successful company of players, but they claim that much of their success is due solely to the efforts of their manager, Bobby Congdon, and their costume-designers, Edith Lindcnberg and Lydia Cortcse. Between the acts, 1 had an opportunity to observe the theater itself. In one of the boxes, I spied a familiar crop of hair, and then I thought —Kathryn Kingston! Mildred explained to me that she ami her co-workers. Helen Meyn and Martha Rodenbush were often employed in government criminal eases. Dorothea pointed E TSJ I o rv. ANNUAL oat a group seated near the orchestra—Benedict Miller, Her- bert Hanson, and Eugene Kent, who run a fine department store in the heart of Parsnip Junction. Their chief buyers arc Kenneth Pancoast and Jerome Leadley, who purchase their stocks of women’s suits and coats, face powder and darning cotton; and Helen Theim, Gertrude St. John and Gladys Adams who buy up men’s furnishings, hardware, jewelry and auto parts. We all agreed we had had a most surprising and en- joyable evening and said good-night with many promises of future meetings. The next morning confirmed reports of the election began to come in. The excitement and, suspense ran high, sentiment being divided among my rediscovered friends. However, as the day progressed, it became evident that Zillah would win, and indeed she did. when the final reports came in. Phil took his defeat very gracefully. Ella now became very busy and I thought it best to go back to Rochester and report to my com- mittee headquarters. I promised to attend the inauguration and perhaps bring a fellow alurna or two back with me to meet our friends in Washington. A few days later, I paid a visit to West High. It seemed good to be inside once more. First, I met Grace Green, and she piloted me around to meet the June '21 teachers We had quite a reunion that evening at Principal Codd’s home. From various sources. I learned that Mary Croston, Grace Sheppard and Margaret Sweeting arc running au employment bureau. They often find work for those sent to thm by the welfare workers. Pearl Boldt and Alladene Odell. Stephen Briggs if W B S 'T HIGH SOHO QL and James McConnell run a truck-farm in Irondequoit. Anne Callaghan and Helen West teach dancing where Mr. Otto used to hold forth. Mike Miller of lunch-room fame has William Mcckfessel and Daniel Dole to help him in his chain of res- taurants. They make a specialty of “Hot Halibut for Hen- pecked Husbands’ and arc famous for their Guaranteed. De- structive, Death-Dealing Doughnuts from the studio of Evelyn Davidson. One of their most frequent patrons is William Mow. Many of their favorite recipes are from the pens of Melva Chastain and Phyllis Effinger who write for “Good Housekeep- ing.” William Higgins has organised a new street railway company which even runs a; ear now and then on the Dewey line and has special directions to make good time if a West High student winks with the secret sign of the Economize Tartly Slips Club. Among his conductorcttcs, you may find, if you- are lucky. Rose Brooks, Elizabeth Lannin, and Evelyn Grimm. I told all I had learned about our classmates in New York and Washington, and we discussed the new president’s platform and plans. Suddenly Grace had a brilliant idea —we all gathered around the table and she unfolded her plan. We are all going to write to, phone to, or see personally, all our fellow-alumni we can reach, and mee together in Wash- ington on March 4th. We shall surprise Zillah and have a grand reunion. Then, with many good-byes “till we meet again,” we parted, going home'to dream over our planned reunion on Inauguration Day when our dear old class of June '21 will all be together again. Forty-four ®ltp rltooi j E SETMIOF ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL Although w«t High can no longer claim to be the youngest and newest mem- ber of the Rochester school sys tem, it is nevertheless just as much a prominent feature of the system to day as when it was built and, with its great block of tree-dotted sward, is one of the beauty spots of our city. But such a wonderful school did not come in a day. It was the supreme attainment of all the developments made in vrars gone by. As far back as 1887, Rochester had a high school, but it was hardly more than a rude square building of stone with an equipment limited and inadequate. This did not prevent the students rushing to it in such large numbers as to greatly, overtax its facilities, and in 183? a new sehoot became imperative. This new building, which stood in Fitzhugh Street, was a great «in- Ccement over the original one, but in time it was outgrown and the hester Free Academy was built. The academy served till 1903, when the East High School was completed, up to which time it was one of the best equipped high schools in the state. For several years East High remained the wonder of the town; then West High was built. From that time on West High has been the pride of the city. The first principal was Herbert S. Wcet. To him much credit is due for getting the new organization under way. Deserved honors were soon' heaped upon him, for after four years he was appointed Superin- tendent of Schools—a striking tribute to the man who held the welfare of West High so much at heart. Mr. Bennett took his place and has served ever since—a hard-working and worthy successor of the mnn who went before him. Football was the center of school activities in the first year of the school's history. Stories handed down from those times have be- come traditions, and the spirit that made West High famous while foot- ball lasted has come down as a heritage to be jealously guarded. West High Day was a development of those early days. In 1908 the students decided that the school needed a permanent athletic field and immediately took steps to procure one. To uid in raising the necezsary money the plan of running an entertainment at Con- vention Hall was adopted and carried through. In after years these gala occasions were shifted to the school, and West High Day has come down as or.e of the outstanding afTairs of the year. The abolishment of fraterni- ties caused a great upheaval in the high schools of Rochester. When the order of the Board of Education drove out all of the old secret societies, clubs, such a the German Club, sprang up to take their places. But these authorized organizations gradually faded from the horizon of student activities, and in time became practically ex- tinct. Recently there lias been a decided movement toward the re-estab- lishment of clubs in the school, the Loyalty Club and the French Club taking the- initiative in the matter. That they will soon be followed by numerous similar organizations seems probable. West High has accomplished many things in scholastic activities, having ever been a school of high standing in this respect. That this is true is evidenced by the fact that of the four times Yale scholarships have been offered to tin- high school students of Rochester, four West High men have carried the awards. That is only one phase. West High lias taken more than its quota of state scholarship� and manv West High students have received special awards from colleges throughout the state. That the future will bring an even greater number of scholar- ships to her graduates is the sincere hope of every loval West High supporter. No school in the country has a better record or brighter pros- pects than our own Alma Mater. West, High stands at the pinnacle of fame and the gateway to opportunity. A fine record at West High gen- erally forecasts a fine record in after life. West High graduates men and women of sterling worth and character. West High is proud of her graduates, and her graduates are proud of her. Fortyiu ' Alii� . Mabel M. Bcahon, William J. Bennett, William Beabgctour, Helen J. Bezant, E. DeMars Boutwcll, Louia E.

Mamie Fcctywven s SENIO F1 AN N U AU WEST HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT qACTIVITIES Student activities at West High arc one of the great fac- tors in making the school the great place of hurry' and rush that it is. If a student is not affiliated with an athletic team, or serving on the OCCIDENT, it is more than probable that he or she is in the Orchestra, Band, Senior or Junior Play, West High Day Play, Science Club, Loyalty Club, French Club, or representing his or her class as a member of the Executive Council. High requirements make it imposible for a stu- dent to take an active part in student affairs if lessons are not kept up to standard, and a student who fails to maintain a satisfactory record in his class is declared ineligible for any team or activity. These requirements tend to raise the gen- eral scholarship of the school, for a student who has genuine interest in an activity will make desperate attempts to keep all lessons up to standard. There are many clubs around school to claim the interest of the students. Prominent among them arc the Loyalty Club, the French Club and the Science Club. The Loyalty Club is a social organization, meeting every two weeks at the home of a member for the purpose of more intimate relationships among the students and to instill greater spirit and love for the schbol. The French Club lias for its purpose the acquiring of fluency and ease in simple French conversation, much that cannot be gained in the regular class room. The Science Club is for those who are interested in the developments and dis- coveries of Science. The section of the country around offers many opportunities to students interested in natural science, and trips are taken by the Club to points of interest. The Chess Club is an old-time organization which has recently taken a new lease of life. A team was formed of the most proficient members, and two matches were run off against the faculty, the first of which was a. tic and the second a, victory for the students. The teachers declare that chess is excellent training for the mind. Through the generous patronage of Mr. Eastman, Roch- ester is soon :to become one of the greatest musical centers in the country. The donation of instruments to the University of Rochester for the use of the High School Students of Roch- ester is an example characteristic of his liberality. That the instruments were greatly appreciated by the students to whom they opened a new avenue of instrueton and pleasure, is evi- denced by the fact that in two months' time from the day the boys were given their first instruction, the Rochester High Schools had a band of forty pieces with a sufficient repertoire to participate in a Decoration Day parade. That was several years ago, and the growth and development of all thd instru- mental organizations of the schools has been steady ever since. Under Mr. Spouse the Glee Clubs have achieved new heights of ability. An Easter cantata given at one of the largest down- town churches was highly praised. Dramatics have had a prominent place in student life at West High during the last two years. Aside from the Junior and Senior plays, produced under the direction of Miss Tripp, there have been two musical comedies arranged, directed and staged under the supervision of one of the stu- . dents, Gordon Graham. The OCCIDENT still maintains its place of influence in the school life. The past season has been one of the most suc- cessful ever had. although the staff encountered difficulties unknown in former years. Everyone manages to have a good time, and there is no one who cannot find some place where he • or she can work and be happy. Fc-tty-tight SENIOR ANNUAL W ES T HIGH SCHOOL Guckcr Makin Beers Goo Id OFFICERS, STUDENTS ASSOCIATION The officers of the West High Student's Association are president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and cheerleader. With the exceptio of the treasurer, who is � member of the faculty appointed by the principal, all are students. Each fall the various political organizations of the school hold caucuses and choose their party managers and candidates for offices. The campaign speeches of the party managers arc the most flowery oratorical efforts of the year and the party managers do not fail to promise such things as to reduce the price of the tray-lunch and to extend a sidewalk to the corner drugstore if the students will only vote that party into control. The last election was a context primarily between the Trnstbuster and the Booster organizations. Albert Makin was nominated for president by the Trust busters and endorxd Forty mn by the Boosters, as was Helen Goold for vice-president. Both were elected. .James Gray was elected secretary on the Booster Ticket and Leighton Beers, cheerleader on the Trust buster ticket. At the end of the term the secretaryship was left vacant, by the graduation of James Gray. A special election wax called at which the Trusbustcr party succeeded in electing its candidate, Willard Guckcr.

IN September 191k. the present Junior Final class entered West High for the first time. According to custom, the most outstanding affair of our freshman year was the reception to the |iarcuts when we brought all our folks up to school to meet our tcaclicrs. The first, anil perhaps the biggest event of our Sophomore year, was the Hallowe'en party when we turned out the largest crowd that ever attended a elas� affair in West High. Our Valentine party was also a great success. An excellent program arranged by John Cummings was the feature of the occasion. Shortly after our adviser Mr. Jenner left, us to become principal of Number 17, the class held a j«arty at his new school. The whole evening was a success, but the eats and music were the beat ever. On March 19, 1921, we held n very successful St Patrick's Uny party, the feature of which was a vaudeville program arranged by Helen Kelly, A. Stubblefild, and John Cummings.

During the freshman year it had the reputation of Wing the most spirited of all the lower classes. Hold- ing the school championship in soccer is an enviable record for a fresh- man elms, but that la just a sample of the way this aggressive hunch does thing . In the line of social activities the ela has had remurkablo success. The moat important class affairs were the Hallowe'en party last fall and the girls' picnic at Corbett’s Glen.

The girls' officers are Marjorie Costello, president; Elizabeth Grauel, vice-president; Dorothy Walker, secretary, treasurer; Dorothy Clarkson cheerleader. SOUTHERN JENNINGS THE most momentous occasion in the history of West High School was the advent of the class of January ’23. The freshman year was filled with many class affairs, the most important of which was the annual reception to the patent . Sophomore year was overwhelming in its successful parties and var- ious other entertainments. The swimming championship of the school was won by the class In that year. A wonderful Hallowe’en party was the most marked of many fall activities. During the Junior term, a dance was held which was declared by all who attended a the most enjoyable ever. The class adopted the namo Live Wire Claw,” in the freshman year, and has nobly tried to keep it a class known for its activities.

Game were played that enabled the new member to become acquainted, and these were fol- lowed by dancing and refreshment . ... . „ . The next and biggest event in the history of the el � was the Soph Hop. For this occasion the boy and girl combined and everyone had a good time. The first part of the evening wa «pent in playing game : then everyone went to the A cmbly where a short vnudevillo program, including a play. “Mi Judith McCann,” wa presented. After this, refreshment were served and the remainder of tho evening was spent r‘ dThel'°o(B«er� of the girls' section arc Louise Oclli, president; Ger- trude Bradley, vice-president; Winifred Waterman, secretary; Ethel Luts, treasurer; Isabel Marshall, cheerleader. THE class of June 24 has organized and already has begun to take an active part in the life of tho school. We oxpeet to hear great things from them in the next few year . The officer of the boys’ seetlon of thl live claa are Lloyd Storandt, president; James Galloway, vice-president; Earl Belter, secretary; Don- ald Silliman, treasurer; Katph Quick, cheerleader. Tho officers of the girls’ section arc Dorothy Towasead, president; Loretta Rirhardson, viee-preaident; Caroline White, secretary; Margaret Polio, treasurer; Lena Eggle� ton, cheerleader. The faculty advisers are Mr. P. A. Carpenter and Miss Ray. Jan. '25 has but recently taken it place at West High, and so far no elections have been held. It is one of the largest classes in the school nnd by next fall will have become accustomed to its new sur- rounding and will be ready to take an activo part in school activities along with the older and more experienced classes. Frfty-chrcc WEST HIGH’S CHINESE RELIEF DRIVE THE biggest single project perhaps in all West High's history was the Chinese Relief Drive in which West High set a goal of live hundred dollar and then set to work and raised 81227.00 for the starving people of China. This amount of money makes it possible to feed forty thous and nine hundred starving Chinese for one day or saving two hundred forty-live live until the next harvest. One of two money-raising cam- paigns in West High’s history may have been bigger than this but they were campaigns in which the money was to be used for West High’s benefit, part of which was collected from outside sources. Never before has West High raised any like sum for a purely altruistie purpose. This sum, added to the $500 contributed for the European Relief Fund, makes a total of about eighteen hundred dollars given in the last few month. A special assembly was called for Monday morning at which tbc purpose-of the campaign was outlined and Dr. Albert W. Reavci gave a stirring speech on conditions in China. From that time the school was the scene of practically every money-making scheme imaginable. Tbe boys ran a shoe-shining establishment, the girls sold randy, cakes and even hair-neta. During the whole week these activities continued. Rut the crowning feature of the drive was a vaudeville show in the Assem- bly on Friday. The show was an illustration of how short a time West High require to put on a first-class entertainment of many different acts. Those best received were probably the faculty act and the Olcan Trio with Gordon Graham. At the close of the performance Miss Cook, general chairman of the committee, made her report showing a grand total of 81227, n sum far beyond the hopes of any one in school. “A good deal of credit should go to the enthusiasm generated by the East High game,” said Miss Cook. “West High spirit inndq our campaign a success. All I had to do was to keep-the committee and students from going too far in their attempts.” Nevertheless wo know that if it had not been for tbe splendid management of Miss Cook the campaign might have fallen far short of the admirable result that was attained. Assisting Miss Cook on the general committee were Mr Beulah Lv- man, MU Norma Storey. Mlm Ella See, Miss Elizabeth Dnnbar, Miss Ruth Talmer, Miss Helen Parker, Miss Mabel Allis, Mr. Emil Hoick, Mr. Ray Naraaore, Mr. Floyd Wheclan and Mr. Charles LaBounty. The student committee consisted of Albert Makin, Ouy Friable, Nor- man Lyon, Robert Logie, Harry Tompkins, Fred Lawson,'William Hush, L«igliton Beers, Gordon Graham, Frederic Wellington, Lionel Moore, Philip Goldsmith, Helen Goold, Euuiee Gates, Selma Curry, Sadie White- house, Elsie Holley, Bernier Doering, Helen Tuttle.

From the easy selections of those first days, the band has grown and developed into an organzation capable of rendering the most difficult compositions—numbers which are .generally consid- ered far beyond the ability of high school and non-professional organizations. From our infancy we have had a great longing to learn to play on one of those saekbuts or psalteries that the choir used to sing about. We don't know whether they are string, brass, reed or wooden, but it makes no difference; we are set in our purpose. Perhaps some day in the dim and distant fu- ture we will have enough ambition and tenacity to go about it to realize this fond dream of ours—till then, we must sit idly by, and let others make our music for us. We are filled with admiration for the boys who can tackle those big horns and make such inspiring music at the games. We are sure that our band drowned out the East High boys at the last basketball game—our baritone player could do that much alone! For John Cummings, we have nothing buh praise. When he chews his little piccolo, music hath charms , but when he takes the baton, we must admit that we have a new Sousa in our midst.

The Symphony Orchestra is composed of picked players from the orchestras of the sev- eral schools. West High musicians take a leading part in this organization, Carl Frank serving as concert master and as- sistant director. Fiftywvcn 3 ?---------------- B SEN 1 OPs. - X : : i_j . v l. W E vS T HIGH SCHOOL WEST HIGH SCHOOL SENIO FC. ANNUAL WEST HIGH’S 1920-21 ATHLETIC HISTORY T took a basketball team which won but three games out of seventeen to bring West High spirit to a point never surpas- sed in the schools history. Starting with soccer in the fall the Orange and Black continued their policy of “Beat East High” by finishing uhcad of them in the Rochester and Vicin- ity Soccer League. Both East High and Genesee Wesleyan defeated us near the beginning of the season but were de- feated by the Occidentals in the last two games of the year. Next came basketball, with a team whose gameness and sportsmanship won the esteem of the schools whose teams they played. The East High game, pre- ceded by a parade to the Armory of twelve hundred West High students, who knew there was no chance to win but who were determined to boat East High in spirit at least, generated a spirit and a morale that had a signal result on the sin-- eess of the Chinese Relief Drive the fol- lowing week. Our cross-country team will long be re- membered for the winning of the Central and Western N .Y. Championship at the University of Rochester Invitation Meet, in which thirteen schools participated. Among the participants was Hutchinson High of Buffalo which took second place in the National Cross- country Meet at Philadelphia. At the only skating meet of the winter West High won the city championship and the championship of the sophomore di- vision, placing well in senior and junior events. In swimming, East High was not able to get together a team worthy of competing with ours. A dual meet was held with Manlius, one of the strongest teams in the state, which resulted in a decisive victory for our natators. A City Scholas- tic Inter-Class Meet was held in which West High won the city championship taking first in every' class and winning first place in every event but one. In track; West High tied with Lafayette High of Buffalo for second in another University of Rochester Invitation Meet, where East High failed to place. They took second in a city championship indoor meet in which East High was a poor third. At this writing West High girls had defeated the East High girls in a decisive basketball game, the first of a series of three. The purpose of these games is to promote a friendly spirit between the girls of the two schools, not to reopen interscholastic athletics for the girls. West High’s outdoor track team is practically the same that performed in the indoor meets. This year’s track ac- tivities are marked by the heaviest sched- ule in West High School’s history. The baseball team is composed of veterans from last year's team-, and a heavy schedule is planned for it. Twelve men are in school who played on the team last year, and, judging from their past record, they ought to win a championship this spring. It is worthy of note that in the activities of the past year West High has successfully held to her policy of beating East High, except in basketball. But in view of the wav in which the newspapers talked of the Old West High Spirit'Revived, we need to have no regrets that we lost in that one sport. Soccer, track, swimming, cross-country and skating— in all these sports we have demonstrated our superiority to our rivals across the river. West Hiatt sent the cleanest, most spirited and most courteous high school team appearing on the Man- lius court In years. Led by tho kind of a captain we like to see. Al.

S«ty SENIOR ANNUAL WEST HIGH SCHOOL SOCCER TEAM, 1920 GEORGE 8TIETER................... RALPH TICHENOR ................. JEROME LEADLBY .................. COME out and yell for us and we’ll beat East High,” promised the soceer team before the sceond Hast High Raine. West nigh was third in the Rochester and Vicinity Soceer League with Genesee Wesleyan Seminary first, and East High second. The afternoon of the game every West High student there saw the best exhibition of high school soceeq ever put up on the West High field. The teams plared on even terms throughout the first fifteen minutes when an East High forward slipped a counter past' Bill Guekcr. West High’s famous backfield then showed its worth and whenever the goal was in danger Stiftcr or Beers booted the ball out of danger, Gucker, too, making some wonderful stops. The half ended without further score. The second half opened with a rush, West High carrying the ball up the field only to lose it before the goal. The backfield recovered the ball and this time the forward line swept up the field and through the East High defense, Congdon beating the goalie to the ball and scoring. The rest of the half wus eharaeterlted by fierce fighting. The game was a clean one from our standpoint, only one foul being called for on side play. The game proper ended without further score, ns did an extra period. It was noticed, however, that the Orange and Black kept the ball in East High territory most of the time. A second extra period began with the ball kept almost entirely iu East High territory. In the last two minues of play a penalty was called at East High's ten Captain Coach Manager yard line. Max Gideonsc, recently from Holland and almost unknown to West High's students, stood before the Esst High goal with the outcome of the game in his hands. Eor a moment he hesitated in a silence almost oppressive, then kicked. The ball sailed past the out- stretched arms of the East High goalie. The game was won. Max was the hero of West High. • The following week over 1,000 students saw the Orange oad Black defeat the champion Genesee Wesleyan team by a score of 2 to 0, the first time they had been defeated in two years. There is no doubt that West High had the best team in the league during the latter part of the season. her backfield of Guekcr, Beers, 8tiftcr, Makln, Little, Sodg- wiek and Powelson being far the best in the league and her forward of Gideonsc, Mullan, Seidel, Martin, Congdon sail Black equal to any. The statistics show that West High scored 38 points to her oppon- ents 8, and ended the season half a game behind the league champions. But the statistics do not show the most interesting thing of all. After the second Canandaigua game, the Canandaigua players came up to the West High had the best team in the league during the latter part of at all we would rather lose to West High than any other team we have played, for your team is the elcnucst fighting team we have met thia season. Silty-ore SENIOR ANNUAL ai.iiket makin IIA I.I’ll TM'IIKXOl: ___ .. r liOIMH� WAI.TON ITU a record ofUhirteen defeats out of sixteen start , West High basketball twm (llid onto the floor at the Hast High game to find the Armory filled with two thousand West High fans to East High’s one thousand, though East High has the bigger school and is the possessor of a state championship team. The game see sawed along for fivA minutes with West High in the lead, when Hast High’s maehine got under way and the half ended 27 to 1 for Kast High. Never was a greater exhibition of school spirit shown than that of the Orange and Black rooter . Although their team was hopelessly de- feated, they spent the time between the halves in battle songs and rheers. West High outplayed her opponents across the river up to the last two minutes of the second half, when the East High machine managed to ring in two baskets neecssary to make their score for tho half one point better than ours. After the whistle blew ending the game the West High crowd stayed in their places and gave a last yell for their team. An old East High grad was heard to say afterward, “The support your school gave her team was the most splendid exhibition of sehool spirit I hare ever aeen in my life.” West High's cheerleader� , Leighton Beers, Boyd Mullan and Em- met Lynn In devil costumes and May Streebing in a clown costume, were the hit of the evening. WBS'r HIGH SCHOOL Manager The second game with M .ml I us, champions of Central New York, wan Uir hair-raiser of the scaaon. Manlius hail beaten West High once earlier in the season and expected to repent, hut found it impossible to get pa t Bobby Congdon and Dick Sedgwick. Only one basket was scored by Manlius on a short shot. Gary, noted for ringing in an aver- age of six or eight baskets to the xainr, managed to get one, while Hocdl ateved in two from the center ot the floor and Heffrom made one in the same way. The famous Lawyer found it impossible to score from the field while Howard got away from him for one basket. At the end of the first-half the score was tied. West High had a lead of three points up to the last two minutes when Gary dropped through his basket. The next two minutes took two years off the live of the speetators. Time and again Manliua allot for the basket and mined. The whistle blew with West High one point nhead. Manlius played the cleanest game aeen on a local court this year, two fouls being called against them and five against our team. Practically all of them were technical. Playing the hardest schedule a West High team haa over had, with an inexperienced team and with eleven of its games out of town, the team under Manager Walton, rarned for West High a reputation for clenn playing and square dealing that will make easy the continuance of relations with all the teams we have played thin season rtwo at SENIOR . N N U w E S T HIGH SCHOOL giRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM, 1921 This year, for the first time alary 1 1J, a scries of game wai placed between a girts’ team from Writ and one from Bast High. The first game resulted in an ea� y victory for our girls 44-24. Two more games were yet to be played when this book went to press. The West High team • as follows: Margaret Powell, captain; Grace Green, Mae Strcobing, Marjory Carter, Dorothy Kennedy, Ruth Stafford, with the following as substitutes: Evelyn Grimm, Dorothy Reed, Constance Polla, Louise Gelli is the team mascot. Miss Dunbar and Miss Fisher, coaches. The games with East High were played, not as n re-opening of interscholastie activities for the girls, but n n means of promoting a better feeling between the girls of the rival institutions. INTERCLA88 BASKETBALL For the seeond sueeesive time the girls' tcnni representing the cla� � of June 1021 won the intercisu chsmpionship in the recent games. The following girls mnde up thr team: Margaret Powell, captain, Grace Green, Mnv Htreebing, Ruth Stafford, Dorothy Kennedy and Evelyn Grimm. Margaret Powell, who is captain of the school team, has been captain of the 1021 team ever since the class began to be represented in basketball three years ago. It is worthy of note that five of the six girls on the class team are members of the school team and the other is a substitute, showing that the girls of June 21 live up to the class motto of, “Best of all in nil respects. Sissy-three WEST HIGH BASEBALL TEAM, 1921 Concerning baseball little can be said at this time. When the ANNUAL went to press the team had not been picked. The squad is composed of Congdon, Beers, Lutz, Powelson, Wilson, Seidel, Martin. Clark, Carrol, Little, Gafficld, Mat- tern, Urquhart, Stifter, Wollenhaupt, and Byers. Ten of these players played on last year’s team which made a creditable showing, playing Lafayette High of Buffalo for the Western New York championship and winning, then dropping the last three games. Manager Congdon, who managed the team through the latter part of the season, has arranged a heavy schedule as follows: April 22, Canandaigua Academy at West High Field. April 29. Newark High at Newark. May 6, East High at West High Field. May 7, Geneva High at Geneva. May 11, Brockport Normal at West High Field. May 13, Manlius at West High Field.

West High would have won by a safe margin, hut the smaller schools controlled enough votes in the athletic rounell to have these events omitted from the meet. Prospects for ’21 outdoor track arc bright, with one of tho largest teams in year and a schedule outrivalling any ever curried through by a West High team. The members of the team are Babeock, Dimoii, Gucker, Ward, Burlians, Makin, Berbach, Mattern, Lock in, Gugino, Cherry, Underwood, Paddock and Metzger. CROSS COUNTRY JOHN D1MON .................................. Captain L. G- SMITH .................................... Cmnh FRED LAWSON ..................................Manager West High awoke one morning to find that overnight its little-known cross country team had sprung into prominence by defeating twclvo schools for the championship of Central and Western New York State at the University of Rochester Invitation Meet. Practicing day after day for weeks, and running over the course the day before the meet in six inches of snow nnd mud, Captain Dlmon’s men deserved to win. Dinion ran an excellent race, finishing third. After Dimon crossed the line Bnbcock, I.ocktin, McAmmond and Henderson trotted In among the first twelve. The tenm was not a collection of bright luminaries hut rather a well balanced organization which non as the result of steady consistent training and to Coach L. G. Smith should go a great deal of the credit for the team that represented West High. All of thoso men wilt he in West High again next full and w i may expect another silver cup for our trophy case then.

Each year more and more young men and women come to this city from other localities to enter its classes.
