But in spite of their courage and dauntlessness, which are the wonder of present, day Americans, they were a primitive people. Their principal limitations were superstition and distrust of those of their own race. They were contin- ually at war among themselves and their downfall as a people was due to nothing so much as lack of co-operation. This principle of co-operation has been the cause of the rise and fall of many nations and the American people can be justly proud of their nation which has risen from the depths of a small sparsely settled country to one of the most respected of the whole world. It was the co-operation of a few thousand men thathsaved this country from the tyranny of Great Britain who sought to exterminate the spirit of independence in these people. Later when Lincoln became president he stood for the principles of a United Country or none at all. ' History is a valuable subject to us if we are able to apply the lessons that it teaches to our experience. In a small way we have demonstrated this in the publication of this book, which is the united effort of the entire class. 6 X X kk Wicomico High School linarh nf Ehitnra Editor-in-Clzid, WILLIAM MORGAN ffssoriate Editor, ffxsociate Editor, GLADYS CLEARY ROGER BoUNDs Businexs Manager, WILLIAM HOWARD Literary and ffrt Editor, fftfzletic Editor, ERVIN MILLER WILMER GULLETTE dsxistant Buxinesx Manager, RUPERT JONES Jfssixtant Literary Editor, Humorous Editor, LUCILLE HORSEY RICHARD LEVINESS ,dxsistant Businefs Manager, WILLIAM MooRE luzstant A rt Editor, xf55i5tt1nl H umorou: Editor, MARGUERITE DISHAROON DOROTHY BAILEY ffysiftant Buyiness Manager, MYRA WILLIAMS dfumni Editor, IRIS WHITE 8 Board of Editors f a Minn Enrnthg Mitrhrll The Senior Class of 1920 wishes to extend to Miss Dorothy Mitchell, their eificient Class Advisor, their sincere appreciation for the assistance which she has given our class and the valuable aid rendered in the preparation of this volume.

Taking them alphabetically, you see, lVe'll begin with the letter B , 'Tis dear Miss Bloxom, whom you all know, The one who teaches Cicero. Next and second, as best you see, Is one named after Robert Lee, Mr. Clark, principal of our school, 'Who makes us go strictly by his rule. Next on the program is Miss Dashiell, Who sometimes rides in an automobile, Every day she gives us a chance, To speak as if we were in France. Miss Dryden with her 4iCOl11lIl0I'Cl2ll Powers, Has taught us shorthand for many hours, She is also in love, so they say, Vllith a nice young man at the Y. M. A. NVe've got to hand it to Mrs. Fooks, She teaches us nothing out of books, For making furniture she is right there, Anything from a Ford to a chair. Little Miss Gunby is loved by all, Especially by the girls in basketball, And with the fellows she's not slow, There's one in Seaford she does know. The 4'Queen'l of all English is Miss Hill, If ltwasn't for II all her life she'd be ill. She teaches us literature, rhetoric and rhyme And is ready to help us at any time. Here 's Miss Jacobs, she lives in room six, She deals with seniors and never Kicks, She teaches science and all that stuff, VVe could say more, but that's enough. ' 14 Here 's the best singer we ever heard, Miss Killian sings just like a bird, Aside from the Choral Club she teaches, too, If 'twasn't for her, what would Miss Bloxom do? Now Miss Lankford does her best, To keep the senior class at rest, We talk a lot and don't deny it, And it takes Miss Lankford to keep us quiet. Miss Mitchell, the best artist we ever saw, We 'd all be artists if we could draw, She has more practice than we, by heck, 'Cause every month she draws a check. Miss Morris prepares our girls for teachers, 'Tis a shame to spoil their features, She invented a scheme that's wise, To give the girls some exercise. Mr. Parsons, his fame and knowledge, He got chiefly from VVashington College, Those girls in France he thought were grand, But he loves the name of Maryland. Miss May Powell is next in line, Now in commercial she is fine, Between classes she's been seen by all, To pick up freshies in the hall. N ow comes our dear Miss Ruth, Who never fails to tell the truth. Every morning she drives her car, Because she lives so very far. Here 's the life of the faculty, Q Mrs. Toulson, who is filled with glee, The reason she is so vcry big, Is because she teaches Trig. Here is Miss NVilson, the dancer they say, She attends every one and can 't stay away, She and Miss Dryden go arm in arm, As long as it 's two Marys', there is no harm. R. D. L 15 Efvarhrra' Eraining Gllaaa The Wicomico High School enjoys the distinction of being the only High School in the State which maintains a Teachers' Training Department. This department was organized in 1915 through the influence of Supt. Hollo- way. The course includes two training subjects, pedagogy and sociology, in the senior year, and a post graduate year in which the entire year is spent in the study of the theory of teaching and observation and practice teaching in the elementary grades. The first class completing the post grad- uate year consisted of twenty girls who were graduated in 1917. V During the first two years a Demonstration School in charge of Miss Cora Gilliss was maintained' in which the classes observed well planned lessons and taught under supervision. The other work of this department has been in charge of Miss Ida Morris. Including this year's class there have been four classes graduating from this department making forty-four graduates in all. The largest per- centage of these are filling positions in rural and graded schools in Wicomi- co County. In the present shortage of teachers this department has per- formed a real service for the county in adding a number of trained teachers to the force. 16 F IRM! V' - I wi X' ' I 5.

Let one just enter those rooms of the building which are devoted to the elevating pursuit of commercial studies and o11e is greeted immediately by Dot 's merry laughter and her voice hurling meaningless inveetives on some poor mortal who has aroused her indignation. She is extremely devoted to her typewriting tfllld bookkeeping and we hope, aided' by her personal charm, she will be able to win fame in the business world. Dot has an irresistible sense of humorg her merriment is unconstrain- able, insupressible. For that reason she was elected assistant humorous edi- tor ofthe Tatler.l' Hut she is sueh a busy little body that she has scarcely any time to devote to the duties of her important position. Doubtless she will remember, when she reads her eopy of this book, that she was 011 the Staff.

Hath thy toil Y! O'er books consumed the midnight oil? Red is the champion Ujazzerl, and soccer player of the senior class, -therein lies his chief and only claim to a place 'in the Hall of Fame. He is essentially a Hlion among the ladiesl' and yet, with so many varied and en- viable accomplishments he is quite the most charming and delightful fellow one ever knew, always ready to help a friend or to liven things up with his quick humor. 'iliedn is intending to go to the New York lfniversity of Commerce and Finance next year but we would advise him to consider very seriously, in preference a school where the whole curriculum consists of music Cvaried forms, especially vocalj jazz, and hy all means, it must be co-educational. iWe cannot assure him a successful career as a financier, but think that psychologically he would win many more laurcls as a matinee-idol, alternat- ing in moving-pictures and musical comedy,-unless he would fill a position of importance on one of the big Athletic teams, for in his high school days he always has had one of the first places in the athletic iield. As captain of the Team during the past Soccer season it was due mostly to his persever- ance and enthusiasm that the boys won so many almost unparalleled victor- ies.

She is very industrious and takes a great deal of inter- 5 est in her studies Although she does not accomplish as muoh as some oth- ers, Ashe always eomes out well in the end. At sehool you can always tell when there is to be a show in town by her ' , u . . -. , ' 1 I beaming smile. At the theatre her presenee is always recognized by ier merry giggle. When the morning bread is delivered the delivery man usually ar- ranges for an extra stop somewhere on Division street. Strange to say Bliss Laura, on sueh mornings, usually comes to sehool with her cheeks unusually pink, and her smile unusually happy.

A 4 J inny i ' Muse 11ot that I thus suddenly proceed, For what I will, I will, and there an end. a Virginia is our champion typist. She is the only one who has broken the speed limit in that branch of commercial art. Her classmates rarely see much of her for she seems to be attracted' elsewhere as soon as the bell rings for dismissal. She seldom lingers around the class room with the other stu- dious members of the class. For what reason we have never been able to discover. Virginia seems to be quite literary, for one can 11ever mention a book she hasn't read. Her greatest characteristic is independence. She never re- lies on others but believes in making her way for herself. Her opinions are always different, and she never tarrics in giving them. Her independence is especially manifested in making up her back work. If Virginia continues at the speed she now displays in typewriting wg all feel certain that her future fame is assured, and that no less than the world's champion 's laurels will grace her brow-that is if she does not d'e- cide to make her future residence in the vicinity of Mount Vernon. Favorite Expression I Ambition Oh, dear! Travel Hobby Famous For Reading Typewriting 25 NAOMI DAWSON Salisbury, Md. Nomi So buxom, blithe and full of face, As heaven hath lent her all his grace. Naomi tries very hard to be a dignified Senior, but she rarely succeeds and generally can be found enhancing the general mirth and hilarity. She is a delightful classmate, a worth-while friend and an assiduous scholar. She spends the greater part of her school life in the commercial rooms and conse- quently the rest of the school seldom sees her. However, she never allows us to forget her for she is always in history class though she takes small part in any heated discussions which occur. Naomi is greatly admired by everyone who knows her and in the com- mercial career which she has chosen we are sure she will be successful, be- cause of the noble qualities she has displayed in her High School life.

Jack An admirable musician! O she will sing The savage-ness out of a bear. lt seems that our class abounds in mythological replicas. This is our modern Orpheus,-though, contrary to classical authority she is of feminine gender. Instead of the wild beasts of the legend the most unmanageable '4Freshies and t'Sophs are subdued to docility when she takes her posi- tion of state at the ivories. She aspires not ,Qnly to the piano but even to vocal music, Qand, who can tell, perhaps we have a future Melba in our midst?j She holds three positions of importance in this establishment of learn- ing. First, and principally, she is the Vice-President of our most noble of classes. Secondly she is an associate editor on this reverend staff. In the third place, it is she who every Friday morning plays those mournful melo- dies by which We march into assembly. Gladys is famous among her classmates for her dry, sarcastic, though distinctly unique humor and for her connection with Fisher's Jewelry Store. Favorite Expression Ambition UAW!

'Terseverancel' is Charlotte's middle name. She always remains at a task until it is completed. Though she does not progress with as much ra- pidity as some of her classmates, she is sure to arrive and, like the tortoise in the story, usually wins in the end. She, too, is another of our commercial scholars, but we cannot feel that she was destined for an office. She is of the '4home temperament, and is admirably suited in disposition to d'omestic life. Occasionally vague rumors reach our ears of her proficiency in culinary arts, in sewing, and in house- keeping, and from our knowledge of her character we are sure of their authenticity. Quiet, modest, and refined, we can imagine no other environ- ment for-he,r than a charming little home with a garden and' cows and chick- cus ln' everything.

'tAve Je vous anne, je vous adoreg Que diable voulez-Vous encore? This is the way she feels about everybody,-especially certain eitizens of Fruitland. Maria is the 'tlittle fairy in our home! She comes from Pittsville and joined us in our Junior year. Consequently she is of an unaffected rural simplicity with a thin veneer of urbanity exactly what is needed to produce a most charming type of femininity. She excels in Maid'enly graces ,- French and music,-musie especially, In fact she threatens to be a second Paderewski. How proud NVieomico will be in future years to have enrolled her among its students! Maria is of remarkable fortitude as anyone would know who has seen her meet so valiantly the excrutiating teasing of Bill Moore. She is known among her classmates for her love of Physics Calthongh, strange to say she has dropped ith and her delight is now domestic science.

Diligent, indus- trious, and systematic, she goes about her work with a quietness and ease that can not fail to delight a teacher. She is pursuing her high school course amongst the Elysian fields of Commercial Art and already reigns supreme in those realms. She has progressed admirably in shorthand and typewrit- ing and has assaulted the bulwarks of bookkeeping and has overcome them with little apparent effort. Also, to omit her fame in history class would be a disaster to this chronicle. Ti add to all this, her nature is most delightful and amiable. She can also l 'numbered among those noble Seniors who are always ready to leand a helping hand to a struggling classmate. She holds the position of Assist- ant Art Editor on the HTatler'y staff.

Her idea of Heaven is a vast ball- room with scores of handsome young gentlemen lined up against the walls. She however, has realized that there are more difficult things to master than the arts of Terpsichore, among them attaining forty a minute and balanc- ing books. Ruth is chiefly noted' as a traveler and it has been discovered that in her various peregrinations the city of Baltimore has proved exceedingly attrac- tive for her. Hither she repairs to witness the immortal beauties of Shakes- peare's dramas.

V 'iWhateler she did was done with so much ease, In her alone, 'twas natural to please. The fine quality of Myra's commercial work has already received the recognition it deserves, and from no less a source than the School Board office. She is often called upon to lend her assistance tl1ere. Vile feel sure it because she is ambitious and has taken the trouble to please that she has been selected for this honor from among the throng of aspiring maidens of our class. Myra has been with us for many years and all the time has remained the same quiet attentive scholar. These fine traits have become especially no- ticeable in the last two years, since she has been devoting herself to commer- vial work. lVe feel sure that she will make a name for herself in the busi- ness world in years to come, and that she Will soon bring honors to the sehoolf which has prepared her for a successful career.

Behold our young and unsophisticated business manager! To this youthful senior lies one of the greatest responsibilities and tasks on the staff of the year book and it is compliment enough to say that his fellow class- mates thought him capable of this stupendous work. His loyalty to his class and to his classmates has been shown many times and he is by no means one of the least respected members of the class. Not only in the class room has he shown his worth as a Senior but also on the athletic fields. Ile is quite indispensable in that branch of school work. Nor are his accomplishments confined to only one branch,-Soccer, Track, and Basketball,-he has made good in all of them. He always plays to win,-especially when one charming person is a spectator,-and he gener- ally wins! Vllhen outside of school his attention is divided between a small village near Salisbury and the S. Y. M. A. building of which he is an inveteratc habitue.

What! What 's What! That's what! 1920 Yes! Yes! Yes! 52 I To a great extent the history of one class repeats that of the one before it. They all go through the same course of training and face the same prob- lems but with a difference. These distinguishing traits of a class are called it 's spirit. This makes the individuality of a class always showing where one differs from the preceding one. In l9l6 we first realized that we were a class. lVe started our career in Wicomico High School with an enrollment of 108 pupils. Little did we realize tl1e problems that were before us. Some were unable to continue and at the end of the first semester we had lost 27 members, some leaving school and others failing. At this time we decided high school life was no 'teinchn and we would have to work to be able to complete our studies. NVe looked' with adoring eyes towards the Juniors and Seniors but had many quarrels with the Sophs. They thought they knew a little more than the Freshies and would show their power. By perseverance we reached the time when we were Sophomores our- selves. Our class had dwindled to 71 but we were glad to welcome new members from the country schools. Those who returned went to work with a will and we were backed by our principal, Mr Clark, who came to us at the beginning of that year. VVe were gradually step by step working to our great ambition to be Seniors. This year we helped to publish The NVieomico, the school paper, and then too we entertained in the Assembly under the direction of our Faculty Advisor, Mr. Parsons. It was during this year that the boys under the di- rection of Mr. Philips and Mr. Ingersoll played soccer and baseball. They won the Eastern Shore Championship in soccer but in Baseball they were not so successful. 53 NVe helped to organize the Philo and Adelphia Literary Societies and these proved very interesting because of the debates. Near the end of our Sophomore year we had the misfortune of losing our Faculty Adviser, Mr. Parsons, and our Math. teacher, Mr. Philips, both leaving to join the army. Then came commencement and our sister class left us. Again we realized what it meant to be ready to advance in life. The following year We had an enrollment of 57 members. Three of these coming from another school. We were gradually nearing tl1e end of our High School days and our Junior year meant more than any one before. As soon as everything was settled we organized our class. Being Juniors we had to establish a rep, and we began this year by doing our very best in everything. There was a continuous struggle between the Juniors and Seniors. This started when the Seniors painted a '19 on the roof of the new wing and the Juniors painted a '20 over it. But both '19 and '20 disappeared quite as mysteriously as they appeared. This struggle was soon ended because school was closed on account of the HFlu. By the time we returned to school everything had quieted down and if there happened to be any hard feelings we kept them to ourselves. In December we were given the first chance to entertain in the Assem- bly at which time we gave a play taken from t'The Birds Christmas Carolf, Miss Fluer, our Faculty Adviser, helped to arrange the program. She was back of us in everything we attempted always giving us very good advice. We gave the second entertainment, A Case of Suspension, in March and this proved more successful than the first. Although there was rivalry be- tween the Juniors and Seniors we were very sorry to see them leaving Wi- comico High School in June, not to return. Thirty-three of us came back in September to finish the course we had been working on for 4 years. We were all very glad to get together and started out the new year with a determination to do our best through the last part of our journey. 54 We started a Lyceum Course for the school and We were backed very heartily by the public. This was to raise money for things which the school needed. With part of the maney We purchased a stereopticon motion pic- ture machine, some new books for the library and some other minor things. We were always interested in athletics. And this year With the help of Miss Gunby a girls' basketball team Was formed. The Juniors also formed a team and a series of interesting games Were played by the two classes. Boys' athletics were encouraged to such an extent that the Soccer team won the championship of the Eastern Shore again but lost the state champ- ionship which was played at Baltimore. The Seniors were given the privilege of entertaining in the assembly. Miss Mitchell, our Faculty Adviser, helped to arrange the program. For the first entertainment the class gave the play entitled, The Elevator, forthe second, Almost Everyman, which were Well received. We had the hearty support of the Whole class and We all Worked very hard to make these and every activity of the Senior Class a success. But now just a glance at the more serious side of life. We have finished our High School career together, but we must not think because we have been so successful in High School, the World will clamor for our ser- vices when we step forth for such Will not be the case. To Win success we must Work and now our life Work begins in earnest.

At first I tramped to Fruitlancl, A crowd had gathered there, They told me that it was the last Of the big Fruitland Fair. I hailed a passing street car And sank upon a seat, I saw a inan across the aisle Wliom I recognized as 4'Pete. Pete,, said he tamed the animals At a big Wild VVest Show, He tamed bears and lions, And elephants you know. I heard a noise Hup forward,'l A big man lumberei through, I saw at once 'twas Bill Howard, day VVith brass buttons and coat of blue. 61 NVhen we arrived at the fair grounds. To the ticket office 1 went, And in there sat our Roger Looking well-nigh spent. VVhen I passed a side show, A loud voice caught my ear, And I stopped with a thousand others, To find out what I could hear. See the wonder of the world, Mr. LeViness, who talks through his nose Has traveled all around the globe And stumbles o'er his toes. As I was watching Richard, Somebody bumped into me, I looked and saw Florence Truitt, VVho l'1n told has had husbands three. I asked about her old friend, Dorothy still was at home, From her pride-a garden of flowers, She had n'er desired to roam. After lunch was a soccer game, The Shadpointers, with all their might, VVere trying to defeat the Fruitlanders By rules both false and right. At the head of one team was Bill Moore, He 's the Mayor in everyday life, While the other, Red Bailey, who now keeps a stole Has taken unto him a wife. I travelled on to Allen, And while spending sometime there, A lady passed me on the street, NVhom I knew by her sunny hair. I hastened up to this lady, Saying, '4Miss Messick, she made a bow, Oh, you are slightly mistaken, You see I'm a Mrs. now. 62 She pointed toward a building, '4My husband teaches school, He 's trying to teach the Alleners To keep the golden rule. She told me that Katheryn Williams At present is all the rage, She and her husband together, Are dancing on the stage. I came back to this city, And went into a store, I bought a paper where I read What I'd n'er read before. In letters large and black, In a corner of one page, I read of a perfect College, Which no good thing did lack. It said that 'Ward and Davis, Of this model seminary, .. Could make the wildest girl on earth As good as a Missionary. I went down to the station, And got upon the train, Three Women rushed into the car, Though they must have been quite sa The Women sat down near me, And I recognized by their speech That they were in a company Where there Was a place for each. The largest was Gladys Cleary, Who on the piano played, While i'Retta danced and Iris's Fortune by singing was made. The train stopped at Easton, A lady passed me by, I saw that 'twas Laura Chatham So I quickly caught her eye. 63 116 I was glad to hear her tell As she came and sat down by me, Of being so happily married And that Virginia was as well. VVhen I arrived in Baltimore, I went into a store, And there beside a counter Were two girls I'd seen before. I found one was Olivia, W'hose business was to tell The clerks and buyers of the store How best to buy and sell. Engaged in social work, With her was Dorothy Bailey, She tries to help conditions For the down-trodden clerk. I stepped into an elevator, And much amazed I saw Bill Morgan, the store's manager, Who should have studied law. This notice caught my. eye, As I was walking d'own the street, It said Laura Bounds, Millinery, I scarce suppressed a cry. For in a hat of wondrous shape, And clothes both rich and fine, Stood Laura with Myra Hearne, Whose dress was of simpler line. I stepped across to Laura, She knew me right away, And told me that they owned the shop And surely made it pay. They said that Lucile Horsey, Was a writer of fiction you see, Her books were all best sellers, Their names attracted me. 64 One was Fantastic Amelia, Also The Romance of Sue, Another, The Love That Conquers, And some short stories too. While we passed a little shop I saw Marguerite in the door, I learned that she was a decorator, And this was her pretty store. That night we went to a theater, And when the curtain arose, I saw someone on the stage VVhom Laura said everyone knows. I found that- 'twas Ruth Hearne, Who was in the French Ballets, For her feet were nimbler than her ha Even in the High School days. I then heard someone call me, And immediately looking back I saw Naomi Dawson Dressed in a suit of black. She told me that her 'Lhubby, IIer sweet old faithful Jim, Had' died but one sad year ago, And she wept anew for him. When we came out of the playhousc, A car was standing near, I saw in it Charlotte Cooper, Who was calling someone Hdearf' I went and spoke to Charlotte, And then I met her dear, To whom she was private secretary, 'Twas a lady, so have no fear. On a billboard in front of the theater, In letters both large and clear, I learned that Ervin Miller In Macbeth would appear. 65 llds At last when I left the city, To come to this town again, I met another classmate, And I greeted her with a grin. Myra was living at Hebron, Away from strife or harm, Where all is quite and peaceful, On her lovely little farm. While on the train I bought a News, And what do you think I read, I read of a Miss Perry And 4'Lillian popped into my head. Sure enough 'twas the person ' That was our old classmate, Who had been elected Mayor Of a town in a western state. When the train stopped at Easton, To allow a special pass, The president of the railroad I noticed thru the glass. What! Were my eyes deceiving, But surely they're not bad yet, For the man in the car just passing, Was none other than Wilmer Gullette. I came back to Salisbury, And will this' chance seize, To tell you the life of a peddler, Is not one of such ease. But now I'm tired of travel, I will not journey more, ' For since my purpose is fulfilled I'll start my life all over. 66 M.

Vkfilson Norman Windsor Lee Wingate Nattie Wooten ilirrnrh Glluh Since the introduction of the study of the French language into our school it has proved very popular with the student body. In order to pro- mote interest in the study and to aid the students in attaining proficiency in conversation a meeting of the French students was held after repeated requests, on October 25, to organize a French Club. The stud'ents unani- mously desired to form a society and from this meeting was born Le Club Francais. The officers were chosen :' Ervin Miller, President, Reginald Bailey, Vice-President, VVilmer Gulette, Secretary, and Sue Wright, Treas- urer. It was decided to hold' meetings on alternate Tuesdays. At first the members lent their hearty support to the movement. Several interesting meetings were held, arranged by various committees of mem- bers. The best meeting of the year was held on December 2, when several scenes from HLe Voyage de Monsieur Perrichon, by Labiche et Martin, were presented. The other meetings consisted mostly of talks on current topics, conversation, and French games. The society also subscribed' for a French newspaper, Le Courrier de Etats-Unis. Many students derived benefit from the club, finding their class work much easier, especially in conversation and pronunciation, by this outside help. But unfortunately, the students found there were too many extra- class activities to keep up, and gradually interest declined. Finally the oificers found it lacked support and were forced to drop it in the spring. However we hope that other classes in the future will be more successful in this work than the Class at present has been, and will continue this work as it undoubtedly aid's the school and the student body. 77 English Glluh The need of better English has long been recognized by the Faculty of this High School. Children, although they have taken English throughout their school life, do not seem to apply their knowledge to speaking English. In the business and social world good English is required in order to grasp all the opportunities which come one's Way. There is nothing which more greatly influences the impression We give others than the kind of Eng- lish We use. In order that English should be used a little better and with a little more ease, a Freshmen English Club was organized late in the fall With Miss Crunby as Faculty advisor. Officers were elected as follows: Albert Ward, Presidientg William Chatham, Vice-Presidentg Lemuel Dryden, Secretaryg Catherine Hagan, Treasurer. It was decided that meetings should be held every other Tuesday and that a committee should arrange a program for each Week. During its several meetings many debates, speeches and read'ings were given and afforded much pleasure as well as profit. The committee also managed to secure some outside speakers one of whom was Mr. Walter Miller, Whose interest in all the activities of the school is much appreciated. This club is one of the practical organizations that a school can possess which has proved its value and it is sincerely hoped that every freshman class will follow the example of the one this year and try to do just a little better than the one before. 78 Qlhnral Qlluh It seems to be a well known fact that never in the history of man has music been valued so highly as since the close of the recent World War. 'Music was used or contributed in one form or another to awaken the coun- try to respond to the call for millions of fighting men. Music sent those men across the seas with courage and vision, kept them happy when off duty, and remains with them an inspiring messageas they return to civil life. This army of men returns asking the assistance of the schools in mak- ing America a singing nation. Will the schools respond? There can be no doubt of it, and this point introduces the purpose of this paragraph. What is Wicomico Iligh School doing to help the cause of music? It will be remembered that our Choral Club was organized last year immediate- ly after the opening of school in September, and was conducted on the basis of a rotating schedule. It was with much regret that we were unable to or- ganize this year until after the beginning of the second semester. Owing to the crowded conditions and complicated schedules, it was absolutely impos- sible to make any advances in musical instruction. However a definite period has been set aside this semester Cthird period on Wednesdayl at which time, the Choral Club, composed of sixty students under the compe- tent direction of Miss Alice Killiam assembles for the purpose of training the members to sing in a body so that the musical talent may be used n a most profitable and entertaining way. Sometimes, the Choral Club is asked to assist in entertainments and Friday Morning Programs, and it is with a pleasure that the club is able to respond. The practice of music for the Commencement n June has occupied most of the time this semester, and miscellaneous songs have been some- what neglected. Yes, Wicomico High is trying to do its bit in showing the importance of music in schools, as the beginning of its broader interpretation, and hopes in a few years that the Choral Club will be one of the most important factors in the school life. 79 Uhr Qhrrhrstra . The school is justly proud of its morning assembly exercises. Interest in the lirstperiod of Friday .morning never flags because there is sure to be an entertaining and instructive program for it. One thing that adds so much to these programs is the music which is furnished by the school or- chestra. The orchestra is under the direction of Miss Vaughn Jacobs, who has infused into the members quite a high spirit. For their colors blue and' lem- on have been chosen, and We believe their motto must be As you Like lt or L'What You VVill,,' for the many requests which they have to play at school entertainments of any sort are never refused. The personnel of the orchestra consists of Miss Jacobs and Ruth A. Truitt, violinistsg Wilson Cordy and Handel Hopkins, cornetistsg Edward Adkins, drummer, and Gladys Cleary, pianist. ' 83 l-iii-I If Q Q ix U M I f H 4 A Q E W ' :ii 81 Athlriira . The scholastic year of 1919-1920 has marked a great advance and im- provement in Athletics. Soccer as usual was played in the Fall and the team was the most successful ever produced. more victories being won than in any previous season and the players failing only by two goals to win the state championship, that game only Was lost. Basketball was newly intro- duced this year and has proved so Successful that it is here to stay and can- not but enlarge each year. Baseball this spring has not been so successful in the matter of winning games but the material for a team has been the best in years. Five players have a batting average over 400 and Adkins at short has accepted 37 chances with one error beSid'es hitting well over 300. The track team under the guidance of C. D. Todd, secretary of the S. Y. M. A., captured the honors at the county track meet as usual and minor athletics have grown and multiplied so fast that one is certain to find recreation some- where near the school each day if he wishes. The two best improvements made over last year's Athletics were: the installation of twenty lockers in the boy's dressing room last fall at a cost of 559600. These lockers were urgently needed principally because of the increased number of candidates for the team and were put in last fall. A locker is rented for the nominal sum of 951.00 per year and has ample room for two fellows. The showers were more thoroughly overhauled and the boys given every assistance. The other step forward was the purchase of uniforms for the baseball team. The suits were ordered from Spaulding Bros. and involved an expense of 95110.00 This sum has been paid by the Athletic Fund and since the Soccer boys have a standard uniform our two major sports are now properly presented and the visiting High Schools once more have to take otf their hats to an up-to-date foe. The Athletic Fund which has been mentioned was started by the VW. II. S. Athletic Association at the suggestion and assistance of Professor Clark. About forty letters were mailed the business men of the town asking for iinancial aid to make the improvements in athletics and to purchase uni- forms. The response exceeded all expectations and the goal of 53200.00 was passed. In Soccer this year the boys coached themselves, Mr. Clark coming out to the field and helping whenever he was able to spare the time and in track we were also without one to assist us with the exception of Mr. Todd who came out as often as possible to help us. In baseball, however, G. R. Cobb was out every day coaching the batteries, directing the infielders, shouting advice to the outiielders, and being practically everywhere. During the latter part of the season he was forced to desist because of the activities as County Agent but the good work done by him remained and the boys all hand it to Mr. Cobb when baseball is discussed. 82 Snrrrr , On Monday, September 29, 1919, the first call for all Soccer candidates to report for practice was issued by Mr. Clark, acting captain. This was answered by between twenty and thirty boys only five of whom were mein- bers of last year's team, tBailey, Cooper, Mears, Morgan and Reddishjg leaving, of course, six positions or about sixty per cent of the line-up to be filled by new men. During the first week of practice two temporary captains were elected who each formed a team in order to stimulate interest and to get a better idea of each man's ability. Bailey was chosen captain of the Red Peppers and Cooper captain of the VVhalebones. In the following week a series of five games was played, the Red Peppers winning three. Upon conclusion of these games those who were expected to make the Varsity met and elected Reginald Bailey captain of the team for that year. He immediately formed a team to give practice to the regulars, the t'Mid- gets, consisting of the best substitutes and several of the younger students who developed a mighty strong team during the season. The Midgets gave invaluable assistance to the first team in practice by coming out every day' and giving the regulars many a hard rub. They themselves played and de- feated two High Schools, who were just introducing soccer. NVilliam Morgan, the manager of the team, with the assistance of Mr. Clark, communicated with all the High Schools on the Eastern Shore who played Soccer and a schedule of ten games was arranged, the first being with Crisfield at Salisbury on NVednesday, October 8, 1919. The result was a three to nothing victory for the home team with Bailey and LeViness playing stellar games for Salisbury. And the dose was repeated on the fol- lowing Friday when Crisfield was defeated by us on their home ground to the tune of three to one, despite the fact that about three hundred Crisfield hopefuls turned out as rooters for the home team. ' ' Since the next Varsity game was not to take place for three weeks two games for the Midgets were arranged with Delmar High School and on Oc- tober 24 the Midgets journeyed to the metropolis of Delmar, easily winning the game by the five to nothing score. Brewington and Reddish being the star booters for Salisbury. Evidently this catastrophe weakened the Del- marians' constitution for the return game was canceled and the Midgets rested secure in their glory. 83 : E 5 L. -'L c Z Un Friday, November 1, 1919, the first team accompanied by a large band of rooters motored to Berlin to tackle an adversary that had always proved troublesdme. llowever by means of far superior teamwork and the masterful playing of Purnell, the game was saved by the score of four to one in our favor. Howard at goal showed the Berliners that when a ball goes thru the Salisbury goal it takes a mighty hard kick to do so. ' Pocomoke on the following Viiednesday CNovember 5, 1919,j was put to sleep on its own camp ground by the hard' fought score of two to one, Mears and Reddish by their playing seeming made to order for Salisbury. After the game both teams were served with cocoa and beaucoup de sand- wiches by the Domestic Science Department of their High School which was greatly appreciated by the boys from NVico'mico. ln the following week two more victories were added to NVicomico's roll of honor as Pocomoke was shut out five goals to none on Vifednesday, November 28, and' Berlin was railroaded to disgrace via the same manner two days later by the score of four to nothing. ln the last mentioned game Reddish and Morgan drew cheer after cheer for their wonderful playing. , For a while the boys thought they had won the championship of the Eastern Shore but on Dec. 15, a letter was received from the Public Athletic League, signed by the High School Soccer Director, Mr. Pitman, stating that Denton High School had to be defeated before We were the champs. The boys who had been neglecting practice immediately went earnestly to work getting back in form and in spite of the fact that Gordy Park was fref quently a frozen lake during practice so much was accomplished' that when the boys went to Denton on Friday, Dec. 19, 1919, that strong aggregation was completely humbled by three goals to one, Moore distinguishing himself for Salisbury. From the 17tl1 of December until the 16th of January absolutely noth- ing was done in the way of Soccer, there being no Eastern Shore team to play and the Western Shore schedule had not been finished. Finally 011 January 16, 1920, a bombshell was let loose when Mr. Clarke stated that he had received' a letter from the Public Athletic League asking Wicomico to play Chesapeake City as soon as possible in order to clear up the Eastern Shore schedule. This letter was a total surprise to the Soccer boys but although totally out of practice they immediately got in touch with Chesa- peake City to arrange a game. Sleet and ice again visited Goe- dy Park but the boys being anxious to finish the season came out with a pep that was Wonderful. And so on Friday, Feb. 6, 1920, playing at Denton, Salisbury met and' defeated Chesapeake City two to nothing though handi- capped by the loss of three star players, Clllorgan, Cooper and Mearsj. Reddish, playing right inside, endeared himself to all Salisburyians present by his marvelous game, playing literally three positions. This game com- 85 pleted the Eastern Shore season and withlthe score of two to nothing VVi- comico gained her fifth shutout of the season, truly a remarkable record. The Viiestern Shore honors had narrowed down to two teams, Gaithers- burg and Catonsville and the deciding game was played at Patterson 'Park about the 21st of February resulting in favor of Catonsville. The following day word was received from the Public Athletic League instructing us to reach Baltimore the Friday of that week and that the game would be played Saturday morning. Friday, the 27th of February, after a week's intensive practice the team left for Baltimore in charge of Prof. Clarke and accompanied by quite a large number of rooters. After a good night 's rest in Baltimore the boys reached Patterson Park in time the next morning to dress and be on the field' at ten o'clock when the game was scheduled to begin. The whole attack of Salisbury depended on passing, and so the discov- ery of the fact that the ground was frozen and rough, which would cause the game to depend mostly on kicking, was received with dismay. For the first few minutes after the whistle blew the teams appeared evenly matched and the Salisbury boys were settling down to a hard fought, inch by inch game when Morgan, the center half back, around whom the defense was cen- tered, was found' lying still after a tight place with the ball. He had to be carried off the field and although Mitchell who succeeded him played a ster- ling game our chances for success were far less. At the end of the first half the score stood one to nothing against us. Each player was on his toes when the whistle starting the second half blew and Catonsville discovered once more that those Eastern Shore chaps could play Soccer too. Near the middle of the half Hiedelbach, the Catons- ville center, made a very pretty pass on Donaldson, right inside, who sent the ball thru the posts for the second and final goal of the game. Salisbury threatened Catonsville's goal several times but always luck seemed' to turn and the ball careened out of the Way when it would have certainly gone thru the field not being so uneven. A few weeks later a banquet was given all Soccer boys by the Girl's Basketball team at which silver medals were given all Varsity players for being the Eastern Shore champions and runners up in the finals. Cooper, ieft inside, was elected captain of the 20-21 team. The lineup of the Varsity follows: Center Forward, Reginald Bailey, CCapt.D, Right Inside, George Red- dish, Right Outside, Richard LeViness, Left Inside, William Cooper, Left Outside, VVilliam Moore, Goalkeeper, William Howard, Center Ilalfback, William Morgan, Right Halfback, Rupert Jones, Left Halfback, Kerns Mears, Right Fullback, Lester Byrd, Left Fullback, Alton Purnell, lst Sub., Philip Mitchell, other Subs., Dallas, Bailey, and Brown. 86 'igwakrihull As soon as school work was fully under way for the year several girls of the upper classes went to Miss Morris, the teacher in charge of all girls Ath- letics, asking that Basketball be instituted in the school. Helen Phoebus, who first suggested it, was sent by the girls to accompany Miss Morris when she went to the principal to get his consent. Mr. Clark saw no reason in rc- fusing their request with the exception of the lack of a suitable playing ground. This difficulty was soon overcome by his generous plan to place two baskets on the school campus at the expense of the school. This was ac- cordingly done and Miss Gunby was asked to coach the girls because Miss Morris had' other classes to train. About the fifth of November the court was finally put in shape and can- didates for the school team were ordered out by Miss Gunby. Fifteen re- ported Conly Seniors and Juniors being permitted because of the large num- ber of candidatesj and until the second week in December practiced three times a week. From the first it was thought best to divide the teams and place the Sen- iors against the Juniors in order to arouse more interest. Linda Messick was elected captain of the Senior team while the Junior leader was Helen Phoe- bus who later left school and Was succeeded by Mabel Davis. When Basketball was first started in the school it was thought that out- of-town games would be easy to schedule but it was found that there was not a single lligh School near us where Basketball was played by the girls. This caused the championship of the school series to be arranged between the Juniors and Seniors. ln the first part of January outdoor practice became prohibitive be- cause of the weather but Mr. C. D. Todd, secretary of the S. Y. M. A., came to our rescue and offered the gymanisum of the building of the association for practice free of charge and moreover oiered to assist MisS Gunby in coaching. This offer was gladly accepted and throughout February the two teams spent much time and energy in preparation for the coming series of three games. The first game was played Wednesday afternoon, March 24th, at 4 o'- r-lock in the gymnasium of the S. Y. M. A. with C. D. Tood as referee. All seats were jammed with spectators and the lively class yells preceding the game aroused the teams to a high pitch of excitement. At the end of the first half the Juniors were leading 26-10 and their score was never overcome by the Seniors although they tried hard. The final score read 46-20 with the Juniors in the long end and this fact was loudly proclaimed throughout the school for several days by the exultant aspirants for a diploma in '2l. 87 The following Vtlednesday Qlarch Zilstj the victors of the preceding game confidently expected' to have a walkover but the Seniors were out for real business and at the end of the first half were only two points behind the Juniors. Throughout the intermission both sides lustily proclaimed the su- periority of tl1eir respective teams and when live minutes after resuming of play the Seniors scored, tieing the score, and once more forging ahead the maroon and gold rooters literally ran wild. Then the Juniors would score and vice versa until the excitement was at fever heat. The Seniors finally 1-omped off with the game the score being 31-29. This defeat of the Juniors completely took the starch out of their sails while the Seniors determined not to make the same mistake as the Juniors practiced harder than ever. The afternoon of the deciding game, Wednes- day, April 7th, a record crowd was present consisting principally of Junior and Senior rooters. In the absence of Mr. Todd one of the War Players :ind Singers who had been a physical training expert referreed and blew the whistle starting the game sharply at four. At the end of the first half the Seniors were leading by one goal. resulting chietiy from their wonderful teamwork and the consistent shooting of Ruark, right forward. In the last half the teams vied with .each other in evening up the score until with one minute left of playing time the Juniors were one point ahead, 29-28, result- ing from the line free throw of the game made by Waller, the sensational forward of the Juniors. At this time Ruark, the Senior forward, received the ball hy a pass from Sommerdamp, the other forward, and shot for a bas- ket from a difficult angle, making a clean goal, the ball not even touching the ring. This tally had' it counted would have won the game by one point for the Seniors but the timekeeperls whistle had blown the fraction before the ball left Ruark's hands and the goal was thrown out. Thus ended the series in favor of the Juniors by one point and the Basketball season of 1919- 1920 was over. The two lineups follow: Seniors 1 Juniors: lris White Center Nellie Pusey Dorothy Perdue Side Center , Jane Truitt Dorothy Ruark Right Forward Carolyn Waller llenrietta Sommerkamp Left Forward Mabel Davis Laura Bounds Right Guard Clara Gunby Linda Messick Left Guard Mattie Pusey Much credit for the introduction of Basketball as a girlls sport belongs to Miss Katherine Gunby, the coach, who gave two afternoons each week for practice and who arranged the series which really put life,into the game. Waller of the Juniors led in scoring, piling up a grand total of 81 points. Ruark of the Seniors, was next high player compiling 63 points in the three games. 89 Tazuarhall As early as January boys were seen on the school campus tossing balls around and enjoying the time honored game of catch. By February the com- ing ball season was the one topic of conversation among the fellows in and around school and the prospects for a successful season were thoroughly dis- cussed. On Friday, March 19, G. R. Cobb who had kindly consented to coach the fellows when possible came over to the school and' gave a short talk in the Assemblyincluding in it a formal announcement that a meeting for all baseball candidates would be held that afternoon. At this meeting Reginald Bailey was elected Captain of the team, Pro- fessor Clark was instructed to act as manager in so far as arranging games was concerned and all battery candidates were ordered to report for indoor practice at the Armory. For this practice which was held every afternoon seven fellows came out, three for pitching and four for catching QBailey, A. Huston and W. Davis being the slab artists, While R. and E. Adkins, T. Tubbs and K. Mears were the receiversj Much improvement in the deliv- ery of the pitchers and the handling of them by the catchers was seen near the end of the indoor practice. On Monday, March 26, the first outdoor operations at the S. Y. M. A. Park were held and during the first week of playing two squads were formed one under the direction of Mr. Cobb and the other led by the captain. All 'he catchers except Mears and E. Adkins had changed their positions to some other part of the team, Tubbs securing a permanent berth in the outfield, while Roland Adkins developed into a sensational shortstop and one of the pitchers changed to the outfield CDavisj so leaving Bailey and Huston, with the bulk of the pitching falling on the former. In the meantime a schedule of twelve games had been arranged by Mr. Clark, the first of which was to be played on Wednesday, April 14 on our home grounds with Crisfield as our opponent. Crisiield came and saw and conquered, 11-8, but the game was any body 's clear up to the last inning and the one reason that Crisfield was not easily taken into camp was the errors and inability to hit in pinches. Bailey pitched a sterling game and should have won but lack of practice turned' the scales. However, on Friday, the 16th, the silver lining began to shine when Denton was decisively silenced, 10-7, Adkins at short featuring witha double play unassisted. Tubbs in right field also amassed a total of four hits out of a possible five. 90 Ill Tun Baseball On Tuesday, April 20th, the team journeyed to Federalsburg and the iinal score of 5 to 2 with Wicomico on the short end again revealed the fact that errors will lose a game, all of Federalsburgls tallies being handed out on a silver platter. Houston at this' time pitched his iirst game of the season and struck out seven men allowing three hits only. The following Friday Cambridge arrived to once more contest Sa1isbury's superiority on the dia- mond which she did romping away with a score 8 to 4. A grand total of eleven errors made by Salisburyans sealed our doom, five runs being scored in the fourth on one hit plus errors. In the nineth Wicomico staged a be- lated rally scoring two of her four runs but Trego, Cambridge 's portsider, caused the last batter to knock a weak pop iiy and it wasall over but the weeping.

That same week over sixty girls reported and were organized into six teams of ten players each which later elected as Captains, Katharine Livingston, Mabel Davis, Bertha Ad- kins, Leila Shockley, Louise Hayman and Sara Parker. These captains worked out a schedule with the assistance of Miss Morris by which each team would play twice a week, the season to culminate in a match game between the two highest standing teams. This match game was to take place in the latter part of November and Was won by the team of which Mabel Davis was captain, the team led by Bertha Adkins being the runners-up. Since end-bell was played outside it had to be abandoned in the winter months but was renewed in April. A new ball being received on April 22nd, practice began on Tuesday, April 27th. The teams this time were not sep- arate, and the school was represented at the County Track Meet by a team chosen from all the players, easily defeating Sharptown 53-24. PHYSICAL TRAINING CLASS In November a Girls Physical Training Class with an enrollment of fourty members was organized under the leadership of Miss Ida Morris. This class met every Thursday afternoon after school on the campus and specialized in setting-up exercises, light gymnastics, and wand drills. Games involving the movements taught were played at each practice. Once a month lectures on Hygiene were given the members and twiwce during the year public health pictures were shown the class by means of the new school motion picture machine. The Physical Training Class consisted principally of Sophomores and' Freshmen because the Seniors and Juniors were engaged in Basketball. DODGE BALL The Boys Dodge Ball Team of our school are the State Champions, hav- ing won that honor last spring at Homewood, Baltimore, at the state-wide irack meet. This year the remaining members of that team met in the early fall and elected Albert NVard captain for 1920. Although no inter-High School games could be arranged CDodge Ball was not played by any Eastern F'-hore High School except in the springl Captain Ward called for candidates in October and the game has been played constantly during the school year. ln the spring with the+Track Meet drawing near, the boys began playing in earnest and had no difficulty winning the County championship on Field Day. 93 i--4 V p- Imgszil r1U1gu.1LL .3 SSHLJ ' TENNIS 1920 is the first year in thc history of Wicomico that tennis has been played as a school sport. It was not started until six weeks before the ces- sation of school and so could not become very firmly established. The tennis movement began at a meeting of all those interested, held in Miss Gunby's room on April 26th. Twenty-four were present and of that twenty-four only six knew the game and had played before. At this meeting Miss Gun- by, who was the Girls, Basketball Coach, outlined tentative plans for tennis in the school saying that permission had been gained to use the courts of the S. Y. M. A. Athletic Park. A schedule was worked out and practice begun two days after the first mention of tennis had been made and an order for seven raquets and two dozen balls was sent off in the first week. The prac- tice was kept up until the close of school by which time the Wicomico Tennis Club had saved up enough money to invest in a net for the Club 's exclusive use. It is to be hoped that next year tennis will take the place it merits among the school sports. TRACK AND FIELD ATHLETICS On Monday, March 15th, C. D. Todd, Secretary of the Salisbury Young Men 's Association, with the assistance of Prof. Lee Clark organized Wicom- ico's Track Team in the assembly by having a meeting for all interested in track events. About thirty-five fellows were present and signified their in- tention of joining. Mr. Todd at this meeting announced that indoor prac- tice in starts, broad jumps, high jumps, and standing broad' jumps would be- gin Monday, March 23rd, in the gymnasium of the S. Y. M. A. and twice a week from then until weather conditions permitted outdoor practice. The boys reported faithfully for this training and were given their first outdoor' runs on April 29th, at Gordy Park thereby having practically a full mohnh to prepare for the County Track Meet. As usual Wicomico carried off the honors easily at the meet, a large lead being had over the nearest contestant. It is encouraging to note the growing interest and the large number, especially girls, of those who are trying for badges. This year nineteen tried for bronze, twenty-three for silver, and two for gold badges.

Y. M. A. building on December 29, for the purpose of forming a permanent alumnus association of the Wicomico High School. The first meeting was of a social nature only. Mr. Charles LeViness of '19, was master of ceremonies and the program for entertainment was furnished by the class of '20 under the direction of Mr. Wilmer Gullette, the class prsident. Refreshments were furnished by the boys and served by some of the girls. During the period' for refreshments members of the various classes were called upon to express their opinions of the value of an association. These opinions were universally favorable and it was generally decided that a certain day during commencement each year Should be set aside for Alumni day at the Wicomico High School. No set plans were formed at this meeting but Mr. Paul Philips, a former graduate of W. II. S. was ap- pointed head of a committee to select the day and to decide upon the details of the formation and presentation of the Association. 96 wmizenriin, U M ,gi 1 IH ,NE wmv W sw L , 1 I ' fl lw wmm iiillllglllls iii llyilmig mmm n fl Q V dl, 'Il l k g,lw .Af l ,v13.li't,-it .., or JOKE 19211---Slnkrz liill ll.-Bliss Ruth, what's your littlo sisterls name?
