For two years, the school years of I870-7I and I87l-72, it was located in the South Duke Street school house. A section of the Industrial department occupied this same building during the past year. Provision was made for the high school by the erection of a three-story building on West Philadelphia Street, between Beaver Street and the railroad. It was occupied from the school year of l872-73, inclusive, to the year IS99-l900. At first high school pupils were located only on the second floor. The first floor was used by grade schools, whilst the third was to have been fitted up as a gym- nasium. That commendable purpose was never carried out and eventually, in the rooms were placed grade schools. From this building the school was transferred to its present quarters in the school year of IS99-I 900. The curriculum as first adopted required three years for its completion. Later, at the close of the first year, it was revised and made a four years' course. At the time of its creation the Borough Superintendent, Prof. W. H. Shelley, was appointed Principal of the new high school. His duties included grade super- vision and high school instruction and administration. There was provided an assistant principal and one other teacher on full time. A fourth instructor, but only on part time, gave lessons in vocal music. ln this faculty of four there was only one lady teacher. High School credits were given for work done in the grades previous to l870, so that the Hrst class was graduated in I872. The number and class location of early graduates are given in the following: i Classes Number of Graduates l872 2 I873 9 IS74 6 l875 7 l876 I0 I877 l l 1878 l I l879 I3 l880 I0 The Principals of the High School, in the order of succession, follows: W.

For example, did Paris ever realize that this stealing of the beautiful Helen would eventually bring about the destruction of Troy, and even make possible the long and dangerous journey of Ulysses and his famour Greek Heroes? ln the same manner, when in the fall of l9l9 the various Grade Schools of York found that they had their quotas of pupils who apparently were ready to enter High School, the foundation of a famous Class was laid. That Class was at that time started upon its long and eventful journey through the sea of High School Life. This short history, written in the form of a drama, will trace the progress of this Class of l923 through the many adventures and problems encountered on this stormy sea. But even more than thatg it will show you that problems were just as aptly solved as were those of the famous and time honored Greek Hero,vULYSSES. ACT l. Adventure on the lsland of the Cyclops, l9l9-1920. The curtain rises to find the long Trojan War just coming to a successful termination after having been desperately waged for eight years in the Grade Schools of York, by the famous Greek Heroes. Ulysses and his Greeks now stand upon the threshold of their adventurous voyage across the four years expanse of educational ocean that separated Troy from Greece, our Home Land. After many blessings and gifts had been bestowed upon us by the Gods, our Class of '23 set sail for its destination, Penelope. The most im- portant gift was a mysterious sack, containing four marvelous donations from Zeus himself, and the command was not to open this sack until we had reached our destination. After having been introduced to our officers we left our port one beautiful autumnal day in August 19195 and started across those untracked, unmapped, and unknown wastes of water, inhabited by only the most frightful demons and terrible monsters that the land or sea was ever capable of producing. Our adventures began early. We soon reached one of the numerous islands that dot the Aegean Sea, and at this place we landed. This was the Island of the Cyclops or better known as the Freshman Year of High School. yTwas here that the monsters called Cyclops, or more familiar as the Class of '22, pounced down upon us unwary Greeks, and into their dusky caves were we carried. There new and terrible horrors presented themselves to view. These were the animals that inhabited the island, Freshman English, Latin, Science, Civics, Algebra and several others. They united their efforts with those of the Cyclops in order to make our young lives miserable. However we had a LEADER, and we found we had one weapon, a great club. This club was really the UN-CONQUERABLE School and Class SPIRIT of the Class of l923. After studying our problem we saw our one avenue of escape was only accessible by using this club. This we did, and so effectively that the mighty Cyclops received his death blow. In his death frenzy he pushed away the stone that had held us as prisoners in his cave, and we rushed out to freedom. While we were still on the island yet our unpleasant dangers were overcome, and we left the defensive and took the offensive. Our great victory was the capture of the greatest athletic animal on the island, the Inter-Class Basket-ball Championship. This gave us our start in the matter of trapping this type of Hanimaln and throughout our entire journey we were successful in this line. The long winter was over, and spring was coming. Our first stage of penitence was completed. After a festive event, the School Picnic, we left the island, spent three months on summer seas, and then reached the next island, at which point the second act begins. ACT II. The Adventures on the Island of Trinacria, l920-l92l. The Ships of '23 are still sailing over the Aegean Sea. One danger point has been passed, namely the Isle of the SIRENS. While a-few of our members were influenced by these beautiful but delusive creatures, yet only a few of our members deserted the HShips of '23 to follow after the WORK or the PLEAS- URE Siren. Our real adventure of the year was our visit to this island of the enchanted animals, or the Sophomore Island. Here we did not find giants, but strange animals,fSophomore Studies,-which although we quickly killed them, yet their spirits came back and haunted us. They were truly haunted or enchanted. These terrible Uspectersi' were only the conditions which all high school students know SOMETHING about. We did not lose heart, but we, as a Class, saw that the specters, like the original animals, could be overcome by diligent and unceasing effort. After adding the scalps of several athletic animals to our collection we found that spring was again at hand, and our visit to this island almost com- pleted. We were so overjoyed at our successful journey up to this point, that we decided to have a grand festive occasion before leaving this island. The ceremonies were collected into a fine picnic, the Sophomore Picnic of the Class of ,23. This picnic was of the calibre of all our class affairs, so you well know it was an ideal affair to usher one into a summer vacation. It also proved a financial success and put our Class on its feet financially. Another step towards the goal had been made. ACT III. The Adventures on the Island of Laestrygonia, l92l-l9ZZ. .The curtain of the stage now rises upon the climax of the play. That critical period in a High School Student's life had now been reached. We were on the island home of CIRCE and her followers, all wicked magicians. This enchantress attacked juniors by means of the following formidable weaponszg Junior studies, athletic duties, scholastic, literary and dramatic work. It is not surprising that Circe by using Foreign Languages, Physics, Geometry, and Cicero, can change careless Juniors into enchanted animals. ' But our class, with few exceptions, avoided such lamentable changes. It now became necessary to assist our leaders by electing officers from our own ranks. Accordingly our Class elected the following officers, in order to make the sailing of our Class more smooth. President .................. . . Charles Rudy. Vice Presidenl. . . . . jean Bossert. Secrelary ...... . . Charlotte Rudy. Treasurer ......... .............. F rank Brockman. Under this regime such demons as selecting rings, colors, pins and a motto were quickly despatched. Now when we found that we were withstanding the charms of Circe, we celebrated the fact by holding our Junior Soiree. This was our first real Class affair, and it was a pronounced success. It was held February IO, l922 in the gymnasium. It was again time to elect officers for the coming term. Those members of our class chosen were:- Presidenl ...... . . john Craybill. Vice President. . . . . James Cecil Gerry. Secretary ..... . . . . . . . . Anne R. Brunhouse. Treasurer ............... ........ H enry M. Feder. New lines of work were discovered upon this island, and one of the most important was the work connected with the various Societies of the High School. These Societies are not only sources of enjoyment and pleasure, but they will heap benefits upon their members in numerous ways. Certain it is that the Class of 1923 loyally supported these Societies, and all the Literary success of our Class may be traced back and these Societies will be found to be the sources. Again spring broke over that Grecian island. We realized that our stay here was almost concluded. Our visit here had really been a happy one. We decided to celebrate the conclusion of our visit here by two great events, both ones being made famous by their success. The first one developed and demon- strated the dramatic ability of our Class. The other one showed what a good time we could enjoy. The first was the Junior Play. l am safe in saying that it was the best play ever presented to the public, in the history of the High School. It is true and all who shared the pleasure of seeing this play will agree with this statment. THE CASTE. Clarence Van Dusen ....... ...... R ussel E.. Brillhart. E. M. Ralston ...... . . .

The event that finally concluded our stay upon the island was the junior Picnic, held at Accomac along the Susquehanna River. ln all senses of the word this picnic was a complete success. ACT IV. Our Return to Penelope and HOME., ln the opening of this actgwe catch sight of Greece far off in the distance. It is true that we have changed since we departed from Troy three years previous to this time. We have been battered and bruised from our adventures, but we have also been developed and matured. We still have a few adventures before us, chief among which is the trouble to establish our identity. We also find when we land in Greece that there are many suitors there, who have come in our absence to obtain the beautiful Penelope for one of their wives. Unfortunately at first she does not recognize us, so our big task for this year was the overpowering of the insolent suitors and the establishing of our identity. Before starting these tasks we elected officers, and the results of that election were:- Presidcnt ...... . . . James Cecil Gerry. Vice President ..... . . . Vernon H. Kunkle. Secretary ...... . . . Helen Ort. Treasurer ........ ' .........,..... Neel Cockley. One of the methods of showing that we were the Greek Heroes was the putting of our Colors on the curb of the street, across from the palace where Penelope and the suitors were located, better known to us as the York High School Building. One of the inhabitants of this building failed to recognize this mark and did not note the weight carried by those Red and Blue colors. Indeed, this person, better known as the Class of l924, even went so far as to replace our colors by those of his. This plan, however, did not work, but it brought about the Color WAR of l922. The battle waged from November I5-I7. The contest itself was short lived and one-sided. We had not had our many troubles in vain, neither were we returning from the Trojan War empty handed. All the methods and tactics of warfare were revived in order to make us the victors in this contest. Success and victory crowned our efforts, and our opponent saw that we were the Greek Heroes returning home. From the time of this recognition on November I7, l922, all differences were forgotten and we had no truer, finer or sincere friend than the Class of l924. We were both working for the same thing from that time onfthe Glory and Honor of the Old York High School. To celebrate the closeness we now were to the goal of our ambitions wc had a fine social event, the Senior Soiree. This was the best social event our Class ever had, and it was enjoyed by many of our Class members. Officers for the last term of office were now elected. Those chosen by the Class were:- President ....... . . . Robert Martin. Vice President ..... . . . Gordon F. Ramer. Secretary ...... . . . Sarah E. King. Treasurer ........... ....... . . . Fred Eichelberger. Another evil that we had to overcome at this time was the Annual D. A. R. Essay Contest. We as a Class made a remarkable showing in this Contest, and all the essays reflect credit upon our skill as a Class. Those who were fortunate in being the winners were:- First Prize .... . . Margaret E.. Maughlin. Second Prize. . . . Flora E. Cohen. Third Prize. . . . . Gordon F. Ramer. Fourth Prize. . . . Margaret Dietz. Fgfth Prize .... . . Vernon H. Kunkle. Sixth Prize ..... , . Ruth Hauser. Seventh Prize. , . Mildred Hubley. Eighth Prize. . . , Jean Bossert. Ninth Prize .....,...,.......... Dorothy Lauer. judges Prize .......,.... .....,.. B eatrice Augenbaugh. In our eagerness to reach the goal we did not forget our policy of the previous years. That was to capture as many of the athletic animals as possible. We had been developing in every line of athletics the first three years, and although we had become famous those first three years, it was in this, the last act, that we had made history. Never did York High Teams have such spirit, push, and such FIGHT, as they did this year. The combination of three elements showed its power during the first of the City Championship Games. In this game the York High Team defeated and humbled the Y. C. I. team by a score 36 to 30. This was the finest and most sensational game ever staged in York. The second game was almost a counterpart of the first, buttin the two extra periods of play, FATE placed her deciding finger on the other side of the balance, and York High had the score four points against them, but they WERE NOT DEFEATED. ln both games older, larger, more experienced, more successful, veteran and especi- ally TRAINED players on the Y. C. l. team broke before the York High Team. The third game was not played for the results were already known. ln order to keep their record of games 4l won and I lost instead of 41 victories and 2 DEFEATS, the Y. C. I. PREFERRED not to play the third game, which was a certain defeat for them. While this brief account of the games should be in the Athletic History, yet I could not help but record it here for it has made the largest passage that has ever been written in the large History Book of the York High Schoo . The Greek Heroes and Ulysses have now overcome all difficulties, and home has been reached. The trials of that band of men and their leader are now completed. Graduation, the goal of our Class, has been reached. We did not forget, however, to examine the sack given to us by Zeus to find what the gifts were which he had bestowed upon the Class of l923. This is what we found. Scholastic ability, Literary Training, Athletics Powers, and last, a wonderful latent Dramatic ability. With such gifts it is no wonder that the Class of I923 was victorious over all its enemies and safely reached the port of Graduation. Curtain. CONCLUSION. We, as members of this famous Class will forever be proud of, and inspired by these deeds which our own Class has accomplished. We are no longer members of an organized and active Class of '23, but we will always be able to look back at the record of our Class, and use that record as a scource of Pride. This record shall stand, like the pyramids of old, to carry the fame of our Class as long as the High School exists. It will stand as a record which no previous Class has been able to eclipse, and which later Classes will use as a goal or an ideal, at which they will constantly aim, but only reach in their fond dreams. Class Poem By Eloise Williams The Class of '23 behold ltls beauty and it's splendor. True hearts united pure as gold, Go through the years together. Four years have come and passed away Since we first gathered here, To study hard and sometimes play, ln our High School career. So these four years have rolled away, And with them all our troubles. Love and Good-will are here to stay, Our cares shall be like bubbles. If we our duties always do, Through this world we'll go smiling. But shirking work, you'll surely rue, And troubles will be piling. Our colors, radiant Red and Blue, l..et's Haunt them to the sky. And add to them, the Orange and Blue To honor Old York High. Our teachers we will ne'er forget, They're patient, true and kind, They'll linger in our memories yet, When High School halls are left behind. Impossible is Un-American, Our Motto tried and true, Be loyal to your Country And to the Orange and Blue. Impossible is Un-American, All things are done to-day, just try and you will find you can Where you have oft said Nay. And when you pass out into life As master of your fate, The world will smile upon you, If you'll hang on and wait. And now 'tis time to say farewell To High School friends and halls, We hope you'll all be happy as, Weive been within these walls. 1 71 1 Ill' I N I 12 :xii -4 - -I - i .

Although it makes us grieve. And since we have to leave it, Brace up and clo not cry, And never, never do forget The olcl York High. Chorus. Farewell to you, dear classmates, Farewell to Twenty-three. Farewell to you dear High School We leave in loyalty.

Chorus NE phase of the musical activities of the York High School, is centered in the High School Chorus. This organization had its birth in l905, under the instruction of Professor John Denues. It continued to prosper under his direction until it was disbanded in l909. It again took up its work in I9l2 with Mr. Dale Diehl as instructor. The chorus had been under the eigciellent supervision of Professor Stuart E. Gipe, the present instructor, since I 8. Originally the chorus was composed of members from the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, numbering 173. The chorus continued to increase, so that in l9l4, owing to the inconvenience of directing so many voices, it was divided into two choruses, the Senior-Junior, and the Sophomore Freshmen. The Senior-Junior group soon became the major factor at the disbanding of the Sophomore-Freshmen group. An annual concert has been given by the chorus for many years. These concerts, which are well rendered, are always received with appreciation and true musical admiration, due to the untiring efforts of Prof. Cnipe, the wonderful response of the students and soloists, and last, but not least, to Prof. A. A. Knoch and his accompanying orchestra. ' The I923-24 production was a rendition of two cantatas, The Mound Builders, and Lore from the Saga of Eric the Red. Both cantatas were the works of Paul Bliss, both text and music. The former was a clever interweaving of old Indian melodies into one central theme, while the latter was a tuneful legend, truly Norse in its character. The rendition of the cantatas was assisted by Mary Hake '24, soprano soloist, and Helen Shaw '24, accompanist. Among the many other equally delightful and pleasing numbers rendered previously, were: Chimes of Normandy, selections from the Bohemian Girl, l..ochinvour's Ride, Faust, the Legend of Nacoochie, and the Village Blacksmith. From its previous successes and its increasing popularity, a bright and unlimited future may well be predicted for our York High School Chorus. History of the Y. H. S. Orchestra HE York High School Orchestra has progressed greatly within the last few years. From time to time new instruments have been added, among them an old Albes and bas violin whose tone is unexcelled by modern string basses. A pair of tympani have also been added to the Orchestra and have proved themselves able assistants to this amateur orchestra. It is hoped that an Oboe and probably a bassoon will be added to the Orchestra in the near future, as they will finish the High School Orchestra, as a real orchestra, every essential part of a Symphony Orchestra then being present. As an assistant to the High School Chorus, the Orchestra has played a winning part, because voice and instrument blend together and produce the most beautiful music ever played. The booking agent Mr. Demetrus Zacheriss, from the White Entertainment Bureau, whose musical numbers many of us have heard within the past few years, says that as many orchestras as he has heard the York High School Orchestra, as an amateur organization, excels all others. Mr. Demetrus Zacheriss is a musician of fine caliber, and a well-known critic. Under the careful direction of Prof. A. A. Knoch, the Orchestra has safely been piloted from the bottom to the top of the ladder, and is still climbing higher. The grade school pupils now under the instruction of Prof. Knoch will enter High School in the future and he will be prepared to take up the reins of the older pupils. The Class of '23 wishes the best of luck and prosperity to this fine High School Organization.

I think every one on Market Street, west of the Square, knows her by that mile-a-minute walk of hers, and we might also say she is very fond of riding, especially bicycles, for reasons of her own. So if her walking tires her out too much, she can always fall back on her other mode of travel-bicycling. Frances also has one great desire and that is to get out of York, preferably to Philadelphia. We certainly hope her wishes will be gratified and she will some day live in that city of Brotherly Love, if brotherly love is what she desires. RUSSELL WILLIAM BOWMAN Identiflication-Who knows?

This is a true statement as Russell gave it to a member of the Tatler staff. Now we don't exactly think he's lying for he has always been very truthful but we think he's trying to pull one over on us. Don't kid us any more Russell, because we know why you never catch an earlier train from Seven Valleys than the one at I0 o'clock.

Russ is simply a Hpeggerf' He has never been known to miss a recitation and holds the honor of holding Miss Hoy spellbound with his discourses on the stars. Others of us have tried this and failed, so you see he is quite the statesman. Russell is never seen hanging around the High School, thus making it doubly hard to get any dope on him. He is sort of a man of mystery. He is a member of the Liberty Boys Club and that of course accounts for some of his strangeness. You sure do have us guessing Br1ll1e.

Now we donit mean that Neel fabricates but he has a very good line, There is only one fellow in our class who has a chance of out-shining Neel when it comes to arguing and he quit school because of the competition. Be careful Neel, fellows with automobiles are in great danger these days. Some little girl may take you out riding in your auto and after that the fellows will say, Gone but not forgotten. His only- trouble was that he didn't have enough hands so as to keep two on the steering wheel. Well Neel the saying is that your kind fall hard so we advise you to carry a cushion with you.

The tom-tom is two pencils drumming on the window sill, the audience is a bunch of senior girls, and the dancer our own woozy haired classmate. Mildred sure does look the part though. But Mildred isn't all froth, even though she likes to dance. Donald seems to find plenty of depth in this young lady, for he bought a fliver just to take Billy riding in.

Now some people think that Margaret is very bashful, but on one such morning as this, she calmly walked up to school arm in arm with Henry. No, not Henry Ford.

Kathleen is a diligent worker in the Sunday School, for she teaches a class and sings on the Choir. As for her school studies, she would not think of going unprepared to any of her classes. One time Kathleen visited Millers- ville and while there she took a course in snapping and now she thinks that no one is fully educated unless they've taken a few lessons on this subject.

As well liked as Edoth is, among the boys and girls who know her, we know she'll be a success, for who wouldn't like to have a pretty nurse sing them to sleep when they are feeling sick and blue.

Indeed like a rare rose among daisies is Bernice. You wouldn't feel bad Bernice if we reprimanded you a bit for using nature's endowments to steal some other girl's man from her.

Then there is the problem of every female, hats! She has a terrible time getting a hat to fit her crowning glory. She tramps and tramps through the stores to, at last, through dint of perseverance, be crowned with success and a hat. Evelyn's hair isn't red but it is so pretty and thick that we just know she would make a good advertisement for Mulsihed Cocoa-nut Oil.

Pin- sticking, tickling, singing or yelling when quiet is desired, all are favorite little pastimes for Wilt as she is called, some- times affectionately and sometimes not so affectionately, by her much-tortured friend Helen. One thing alone exists, that is that Harriet would never be playful with that gentle animal, the cow. She is positively terrified if one is seen two blocks away and immediately drops the play- fulness and makes herself as inconspicuous as possible. In this subdued state she is easily managed and peace is insured for a short time. 40 ..Beaty,, BEATRICE. A. AUGHENBAUGH Identification-Helen Bishop.

Beaty does not confine all her thoughts and energy on this however, for she is a hustler around school. Why she even carried off a prize in the D. A. R. Essays. We do not know what Beatrice expects to do now since she is a graduate, but by the facts of history she knew in the D. A. R. contest, we would suggest that she begin writing a history.

But just because she was quiet there, and left the students sleep on in peace, does not say she cannot make any noise, for we have often heard her talking and keeping up with the best of them.

She is one of the shining stars of the Com- mercial Course. She knows Bookkeeping from A to Z, and that's saying lots, for there's only a very few who excell in it.

But we of '23 are not the only ones that miss Helen. She's very much interested in someone in the junior Class. One day while passing the boys' entrance a con- versation was overheard between two fellows. Why so blue today, Carl? Oh, my girl's at work this week.

Next she takes her hat off and slaps her forehead until we think that she must be bemoaning over a love disappointment. But to our great relief we find she is only trying to undo the damage her hat has done to those beautiful, wonderful bangs of hers. How- ever the poor girl's bangs positively refuse to stay put. Take our advice Billie and keep on trying to subdue those wild bangs, for some people don't like wild things for private stenographers. ROSELLA VIRGINIA COOVER Identifcation-Hake.

Well, we think the same thing. There are only a few in on the secret but if any of you ever saw Rosella being escorted to and from school, you'll know who the man in the case is. Of course we wouldn't say anything about it ourselves but some of the faculty are wondering just why Toots is late so often. We all hope that your ambition to be an accomplished pianist is attained, and we really believe that Joe, who is some- what of a musician himself, will be of great assistance to you. 45 Tools JULIA CORITA FELTY Betty MARY ELIZABETH DIFFENDARFER Idenlificaiion-Just a mite.

Can you imagine such absent- mindedness? Everyone just howled at her but mI'uz thought it was funny too, and laughed harder than anyone! What can you do in a case like that? The awful non mentis look of Tuz can be attributed to the fact that she's in love. It is fortunate that the fellow lives out of town because he avoids being laughed at by Tuz. 46 T UZ Y Annci' HANNAH MARY STANTON FERRILL Identification-Tortoise shell glasses.

Very rarely do you see Hannah without Gertrude by her side for they seem inseparable. Mr. Guest has great pros- pects for Hannah in the business world, for she surely is a wonder at shorthand. We don't know what Hannah's ambition is, but we surmise that she will become a stenographer, unless she surprises us like Gertrude did.

They've been twins to us ever since the Christmas Play, when they took the parts of twins. They are both the same size and one is as funny as the other.

I-Iowever, remember she is a pianfojist and it may all be due to her artistic temperament, and if she is an artist then the whole world will bow at her feet. So think of '23 once in a while Kitty when the audience sits spell-bound as a result of your effort. MAY IRENE GALLATIN Identification-Nlarcelle. Favorite Expression- Good night! Hobby-Dreaming of Rodolph. Achicvcmentswl-Ionor student. Soft sands, moving doors, silver moon- light and a cool oasis of the great desert is what we think of when we concentrate on May and strange to say she thinks of the same thing when she sees Roclolph on the screen. May would make a typical desert beauty, for what is more essential than dark eyes and long black hair. And we agree with you May, that you would be just the type to play the part opposite Rodolph in the Perfect Lover. We are very sorry indeed that the High School could not have offered you a course in Udramaticsn instead of Hstenographicsf' because a type- writer would sure look out of place in the scenes that H11 your dreams. 48 Mig MARY E. GUNDRUM Roman ROMAYNE GRUVER Identifcation-Height. Favorite Expression- Oh! Gee! Hobby-Laughing. Romantic Romayneu is a fitting name in the case of this young lady. She just loves novels, and desert love stories,-she eats 'em alive! When not engaged in pursuing Ali Baba across the dunes of the Sahara, Romayne is indulging in that famous indoor American sport, laughing. Can she laugh! Truly, she has the most contagious giggle ever heard in a school- room. It takes just a little to start the merry peals but a good bit to stop them. No one wants to stop her, however, as she certainly can cheer up the gloomiest recita- tion. ldcnt1ficationfSlender but nice. Favorite Expression- Well, for crying out! , Hobbysl-looking last period. Achievementsfflhorus C3-4D, Clio HD, Clio Play If there's any funny stuff to be pulled off, Little Mary is usually the central figure. She is one of the greatest mirth provokers in the class. Bill delights in saying wrong things at the wrong time and derives much pleasure from watching her victims squirm. There is only one thing known that gets lVlary's goat and that is any remarks about heighth. She certainly has grown taller lately and we suspect her of taking stretching exercises. Beware of comments on this delicate subject within lVlary's hearing for she immediately rears up and pours out sarcasm at a tremendous rate and when she is done one wonders which is the taller, Mary or the maker of the remark. 49 Bill Gawdge GEORGE GUYER Identification-Specks. Favorite Expression- That darn type- writer. Hobby-Looking serious. This is Gawdge, dealer in commercial subjects, balancer of all ledgers and official typewriter mechanic, who spends all his time in the western wing of the High School preparing for a predicted brilliant business career. George has the dope and the ability and there's no doubt but what some day he will be one of '23's leading business men Cproviding some sweet steno- grapher don't wreck his life at an early stage of the gamej. That's just a little tip, George, for fellows like you, who never show any inclination for the fair ones, sometimes are struck hard all of a sudden. Watch it boy. Now George when you get out in the world, give 'em all you got. Show the old '23 Hght. Good luck. ELMER METZGER HARTMAN Identificationfffhesterfields. Favorite Expressi0nf God that's funny. Hobby-Fooling. Aclricvcmentswffhorus C3-45. Here is a lad who will make good. Even Mr. Ziegler tells him that he has all the qualifications to become a successful busi- ness man. He is indeed a very promising boy, always promising Prof. Ziegler a note. Besides this he has the distinction of having made Elmer Tuggle famous in the funny sheet. Without a doubt he was the real inspiration to the cartoonist who originated that idea. Not only cloes he look like Tuggle but he also acts the part to perfection. Whenever a disturbance is created in the back of the room, Ziegler always knows who to blame. He was finally subdued when placed in a front seat all by himself. Really we mean it, there is success forbyou if you ever grow up. 50 TuggIe E., UC EVELYN ZEILA HOFFMAN Identification-Bangs and rosy cheeks. Favorite Expression- Oh, crapll' Hobbyhllancing. Achievements-Chorus C3-45. Evelyn came from Paradise. Doesnit she look like a good little angel. E.velyn's crowning beauty is her blue eyes. She sure has some eyes. Sad to say, Evelyn's weak- ness is mice. Can you imagine that ? One summer at Wago, so the story goes, Evelyn found a mouse and tied a string to its tail and kept it as a pet. She was so fond of it that she wasted one whole film on it. Only a person with such a funny laugh could succeed in taming a mouse. Evelyn is a good hiker and when it comes to wading streams she ranks very high. She is fond of bathing, but unlike most girls, she takes to mud-baths. Just ask her why sometime and l'm sure she'll tell you all about it. JOSEPH WILLIAM I-IOLLINGER Idenli-1icafiongShort, fat and wears glasses. Favorite Expression- Ye Gods. HobbyfBasket-ball?? Off to school but not before he has made sure that he has enough fiction along to last him through the day. Without a doubt this nice fat boy has absorbed enough fiction to be able to write some himself. lt's Hne stuff Joseph, but why not try to secure a better line of literature? We fear if you ever try to materialize any of those dime novels of yours, you may land in Harrisburg or some other place where they keep perfectly sane people. We often wondered why Fats and all other persons of surplus avoirdupois were so good-natured but now we know, for Fats admits that he and all others in his condition are too fat to fight and they can't run. Reduce, my boy, reduce! 51 Fats LILLIE RAE HOOVER Identification-Ruby Lehman. Favorite Expression- Good-night! my stars! Hobby-To be on time. Achievements-Chorus C3-43. Lillie is the most modest and demure maid of the class of '23. To look at her you would think Lillie was quiet, but you know looks are sometimes deceiving, and they are in this case, for Lillie is continually talking to Ruby. Lillie can't be beaten when it comes to commercial studies, for she sure does shine in all of them. If we would all like to study as much as she does we're sure we'd have forty honor students instead of fifteen. Lillie's ambition is to be a stenographer and we don't doubt it in the least that she will become great. ' Well, Lillie, we know that you'll succeed and '23 will always be proud of you.

Ruth has a very bad habit of waiting for Mary in the morning, and coming in, very unconcerned, looking as if school should have waited for her to begin. Time waits for no manAnor woman, Ruth, saith Miss Turner. She often makes promises. Her most frequent one is that of promising Miss Turner a note for her tardiness.

I-Ier artistic temperament shows itself in her many varied colored handker- chiefs. Are these used to Haunt about in an attempt to attract a certain basket-ball star's attention? When one engages in conversation with Ruth she is always sure to drag forth, surreptitiously, a snapshot of this star.

He also delights in recounting his ancestry to strangers. lt's French according to him. Those are your bad points, Harris. On the credit side we cannot help remembering your smile and your Buick roadster.

EARL KAUFFMAN Identification-Specks. Favorite Expression4 Darn'fino. HobbyfShoving a hod. He is an exception, a rare specimen. You probably guessed it as soon as you looked at the picture. Earl is one of the very few Commercial boys who don't lay claim to the name of Uladies' man. He's as shy of women as a French poodle is of a maltese cat. He has been known to cross Market Street at least a half dozen times going home from school just to dodge some girls. If he did not travel with Ness so much we wouldn't think anything of it, but it seems to us that HI-len should exert a different influence over this woman-shy lad. Stop and think it over Earl and when you have an office of your own be sure and pick a good looking stenographer. 54 Cofce MYRTLE KINNEMAN ldentificalionfclasses. Favorite Expression-HO! Gosh!

Myrtle is one of our profound man-haters of our class, at least she proposses to be but of course we have our doubts for she has been seen talking to a specimen of the opposite sex in the hall and she seemed to be very much interested in of the members of one of her classes. Myrtle is another one of our Commercial stars. We don't know if she studies a lot, but if she doesn't, she sure is a genius. Probably Myrtle will become Somebody's Stenogf' so '23 wishes her all kinds of luck for success in the business world. ..Myrt,. MILDRED KOHLER Identijication-A Ford.

Instead of descending from Paradise, she arrives every morning at school in a Ford. We were all very sorry when Mildred had such a serious accident last fall, but we were more than glad to have her back with us, soon after Christmas, looking as well as ever. Mil- dred has the worst habit of blushing, even at trifling things, but she should worry about that for it makes her all the more attractive. Some people think so.

Ruth is very fond of boys. She says she can't be bothered with them, but that goes in one ear and out the other, for we often see her earnestly talking with a male member of our class.

Ruby is a great scholar in Mr. Guest's business college, and we all look forward to the time when our classmate will become one of the greatest stenographers the world has ever known.

It is dark and has the prettiest waves and they're all natural, too. But you should see her bangs! They're exactly the same every day, not one hair out of place, we wondered how she did it but we've guessed the reason at last. It floats!

Fresh country air seems to agree with you, Mary. Cracken is one of our dean's special proteges. She seems to delight in being sent to the office and calmly faces the music. Mary loves to hook it to see Rodolph. She admits she . has a reason. Doesn't he look exactly like 'l-len? she exclaims. Well, Mary, A you're not the only one that thinks so.

To look at Marg, you wouldn't think she could argue. She delights to do it, especially in Problems Class. Gee, she can talk a tin ear on a wooden soldier.

Anna is another one of those terrible Commercial girls, who do nothing but talk and giggle from morning 'till night. How- ever, that is a fault that belongs to most of her sex, isn't it? Consequently one can't blame her for it at all. Anna belongs to the royal family, even though people don't know it. She is a cousin of the Kings. Your highness, we beg of you, be not too haughty to acknowledge Y. H. S. as your good old Alma Mater.

Ethel starred in so many plays that we all believe she will become famous some day. Ethel is one of the dizziest of the fairer sex of '23, but surely anyone that knew her wouldn't blame her in the least for being so Diz -zy. Ethel can't catch a joke. She has an artificial laugh and when you tell her a joke and she laughs in that manner, you know she didn't get it. We all know Ethel's greatest ambition is to become a dancer, and since she is leaving us after she graduates to live in the big city, we all hope she will have the chance to use her talent.

Having heard rumors that a good story could be found at this young lady's home, the editor immediately put his best re- porter on the job. After looking into the case the reporter decided the best plan was to interview the parents and thereby made a professional call. The only one home at the time happened to be the porch swing, but what it told was plenty. -The reporter, elated over the interview, wrote what he thought a good story and the biggest dis- closure of the day. It was. So big that the reporter lost his job. The story finally ended in the editor's waste-basket and the public never read it, so the swing was saved and still does valiant service on Lauretta's front porch. The secret is ours, Lauretta. Don't worry. But more seriously speaking, Lauretta sure is a worker and will in time be able to buy many porch swings. MIRIAM NORINE OLDHOUSER Identification-Soda fountain.

Miriam is well ac- quainted with everyone because she slings cakes at Lafean's. On Saturday, she acts as the candy kid in Bearis, and once in a while, when Miriam has any spare time, she comes to school. Miriam has the most terrible time manufacturing excuses for her very frequent absences, but she most always slides through without being injured. One day Miriam came to school with her hair dressed in a new coiffure. She told us she wanted her hair to get long and thick, and thought that wearing her hair in two plaits and looking like an Indian squaw would be a good remedy.

One's first impression of Anna is that she is a very quiet and unassuming young lady. Never go by first impressions, for from various reports we find that she is brave and bold enough to go to English Class repeatedly unprepared for her oral com- position. Anyone knows that to brave the teacher's wrath at such a time is true heroism. Anna also seems so shy. This seems also to be a mistake because a certain friend of Annays said, Wait till you know herl' She is quite wild about a I9I3 model machine.

These Bills are very different from the usual ones and as for paying them, well, the kind we mean are not bills to pay but are real assets to any young lady. Florie is one of the four real blondes of our class, and is well liked by her girl friends, to say nothing of her popularity among the boys. Although not always a brilliant student, her good nature has helped brighten many a dull class. Florence has never expressed any special ambition but we're sure that whatever she undertakes, will be a credit to the class of '23 that attracts Anna or the driver of said machine! .ijimmyn 61 l Eab EDITH MAY PEELING Idcnlijfcation-Longstreets.

Edith is very good-natured and would help you at any time. CShe usually is in demand when it comes to lessons.j We don't know absolutely, but we think that Edith is going out into the business world after she leaves school.

Never have l heard this shy soul utter such words as Great Cooks! It seemed almost in- credible, but then one never knows but that behind a sweet, shy gaze, may lurk bold daring ideas that find expression in Great Cooks. It is a fact that when Hannah went to the photographers, she turned on the poor camera such a look that its plate shivered and broke. No one would ever accuse Hannah of being able to conjure up such a ,vicious glance. Her ambition is to be a successful business woman and her hard studying coupled with this hidden power will certainly help her to realize it. lt isn't always the noisiest one who succeeds and Hannah surely has the right dope 62 V Bobby HAZEL LOUISE SENFT ldcntijicationr-Toots.

It all comes about through Rosella, for Rosella is late in starting for school and Hazel waits for her. Rosella is late, consequently Hazel is late. When Rosella meets Joe, poor Hazel is out in the cold. She won't walk with them, so she walks alone. How sad. We hope she does not have to go very far through life alone, because some inconsequential male wishes to butt in on her 'best friend.

Pauline has an immense sense of humor. Her marvelous ability to find something amusing in almost everything is remark- able. She is forever chuckling about something. Second only to her sense of humor, is her indifference to most every- thing. She never worries if everything goes wrong. She never worries if her lessons arn't learned. She never worries if a damp day takes the crimp out of her hair, because somehow it never manages to put a crimp in her disposition. She turns up just as Hgigglyu on a blue Monday as at three-fifty on Friday which is more than can be said of most of us. lt's just because she never lets Old Man Worry come any where near her and it surely is a wonderful policy, Polly. 64 Polly .Lornan LAOMA MAY SMITH Idcntifcation-Curls.

Bob said it's easy to get A's, and when a teacher hands him a B, he thinks he or she is off in the head. That's a real honor, Bob, and we are proud of youg it's a fine example to set.

People say it is very easy to be happy, but there are so very few really happy mortals on this earth that we can't but think they err in their judgment.

If you won't believe us then ask anyone who saw the Christmas Play. Catherine was chief cranberry in the play and under her were a lot of other little cranberries, who danced and hopped at her bidding. Be- sides being a cranberry, Catherine is a good stenographer. We are even told that she makes a better stenog. than she did a cranberry. If that's the case she cannot help but be a success in the business world. Good-bye, our cranberry, we hope till next Christmas you will have risen to a higher position than a foolish little cran- berry. 66 is MARIE ALYS TSCHOP Sul HANNAH SUTCLIFF Identification-Arion.

Hannah, as most of us know, has a habit of collecting rings and pins from--fellows or girls? That's the question which has never been solved. Hannah has also another bad habit, that of starting to school nice after- noons and never arriving. For reference as to her whereabouts, consult Arion. Hannah is sure some dancer, and at the hop she is usually one of the Hbelles of the ball. She rather delights in charming other girls' beaux and getting thern peeved, but when it comes to getting Sut cross, no one knows where her goat is tied. Oh, oh, yes, Hannah likes all the boys, she declares her motto is Variety is the Spice of Life.

Prob- ably it's just an eyebrow which, tired of its usual monotonous life, decided to take its abode elsewhere, hoping to find some ex- citement. Mary has an ambition even if she is a vamp.

Little passing words of sympathy to some hopeless student of Latin, little nameless acts of kindness to some lonesome girl who is without a date, or little silent victories over favorite temptations, such as hooking school or making dates with boys from Penn State, are the threads of gold she has woven together during her four years with us. During this weaving process she seems to have entangled a young man also and were this named individual, a member of the personal staff, to admit the truth about their affair, we would be surprised.

No matter how dark and gloomy the day Mildred always has a smile and cheering word, for everyone. And no amount of teasing can make her lose her temper. This young lady has a shadow which does not correspond with her size at all. This real live shadow is just the opposite from Mildred.

It shows itself often and strikingly by her attachment to younger boys. lt's wonderful how some girls just love to take Sophomore boys to raise. Very charitable of them, we should say. Dora is a sweet girl and young in her ways. Maybe that is the reason why the lower class men fall for her. lt's wonderful to be old in age and young in spirit.

Right or wrong, it is a great ambition, and we know you have all the assets to become one. George would give no identification for himself, so it fell to us to do that.

Life has endowed each of us with certain characteristics, David, but she sure played you a dirty trick when she handed you that voice.

Let it here be stated that to talk to this young lady is an utter impossibility. She always beats you to it and continues to rave on until her victim is almost a nervous wreck. Oh! How she can talk. If any one has the good fortune of being in K's classes, they have a long rest assured them. Question after question is hurled at her by her teachers but Kathryn always has an answer. Kathryn, your tongue coupled with '23's best wishes, should carry you pretty far in this world. 108 Wes, JOSEPH WESLEY WISE 1dcntification+The blackest hair of all. Favorite Expression- Darn the luck. Hobby-Tinkering with machinery. If Wesley were to take an inventory of his spiritual assets we wonder if he could stand on them, You're on pretty thin ice Wes, don't try it. But this young gent has his good points, at least he thinks they are good points. The fact of the matter is, he comes from the country and a region that boasts of some Cone or twoj fair ones. To continue this romantic disclosure, one of these country damsels plays a very important part in Wesley's life. Really, sometimes he is hardly able to get to school in the morning. fl-le runs a Fordj With these habits it doesn't seem to us that your ambition to be a teacher exactly fits with your morals.

Well, Jess, you had better keep the ring in your pocket until next fall at least. This fair looking chap is also a wood- butcher. To make an augmented story de- mented and a short one long, we shall close with this last reference: Jess parts his hair in the middle, eats three meals a day and is seldom seen in school on a nice afternoon.

I-le's at his best in Trig. and Chemistry. There are other things that he must make up also, they seem to stick to him like fleas to a dog. His greatest desire is to avoid Mechanics class. Another feature about Joe is that he is one of our rrtidgets. Even if he is small, that doesn't keep him from being a flashy little basket-ball player. Best of luck from '23, old boy. 113 EDWARD CHARLES BECK Identification-Blowing his nose. Favorite Expression- Hey, what the hun! Hobby-Borrowing money. Eddie is brains personified. His brains crop out in all directions. They won't let his hair lie down, they even cause him to have trouble with his feet. Crlihis fact was deduced from the theory that a person's brains and understanding are connected in some wayj. But Eddie's troubles do not end with his brains. His dealings with the fair sex have thus far been unfortunate: but this does not mean that he does not attract the girls for he does. So now, reader, having sung his praises and given the needful identification so that you may know him, we all leave our best wishes with this young man and his companion Qwhen he finds herj.

But it's only Becker and his Ford, but il l wouldn't have told you who and what it was, you might have thought it was Murphy in one of his speed demons trying to shatter some world's record. because Earl bought an old Ford and put a whole new body on it that makes it look almost like a racer. Besides all this fame he has the cute-st dimples, we think they come from eating too much candy. With his Ford and dimples combined he certainly does make a hit with the girls. b 114 Year njerryn JEREMIAH WILLIAM BENDER Identification-Dark eyes and big feet.

Al is a male man in the true sense of the word. He never expresses or demonstrates any curiosity over that infallible mystery, woman.

This club held a hike and Carl invited a certain Helen to accompany him. The hikers were scarcely outside of York when the curfew blew. Helen immediately told Brose that she had to go home, They consequently left the bunch and followed Helen's instructions. The next time you take Helen on a hike, Carl, recite this little poem to her, 'fCurfew shall not blow to- night and then show her one or two dog stars. J. WILLIAM BROWNE.

In history his favorite answer is I didn't get that far, in Trigonometry he doesn't answer at all Chis time for the afternoon napl. In Chemistry he has the record for doing his experiments wrong for not at alll, and in English it is his custom to con- tinually talk off the subject. But after all he does not have a very long list of con- ditions against him and he is willing to be a friend to any one. By means of his great ability to talk, talk, talk, when he isn't sleeping, we think it altogether fitting and proper that he be a preacher. 116 Windy Uspook., CHARLES EDWARD BRUEGGEMAN Idenlijication-All length, no width.

Charles is lazy and easily embarrassed, about the only time he ever hurries is when he has something to eat in mind. At the mere drop of a handkerchief Charles blushes a beautiful sunset color. Spook has an eye for business. l-le is particularly interested in girls who are directly con- nected with restaurants. Charles had very much trouble with his picture, everybody wanted one. With this we must leave Charles, giving him much credit for his loyalty to the class during the basket-ball season in his Freshman and Sophomore year. RUSSEL MATTHEW BUSH Ideniificalionfldandwriting. Favorite Expression- Aw you go on. Hobby-To argue. To look at his nickname one would think him to be a butcher, but he's not. He is anything but a butcher or an expert on penmanship. In Mechanics he always knows more than what is in the book or else what is in the book is always wrong according to his answers. ln English he talks muchg as soon as he gets started we sit back feeling assured that there will be no more English that day, because he never stops until the bell rings. But at times he is rather absent-minded, because one evening he picked up a beautiful black silk scarf, put on his overcoat and hat and went downtown to a show. After spending a most enjoyable evening he returned home and on taking off his scarf found it to be a long black silk stocking. 117 Butch Bastien ARTHUR HENRY BUSTORFF ldentifcalionfBow-legs.

After being questioned it was found that Arthur had been reading the Literary Digest. Arthur Henry is in the Industrial Course, but do not dislike him because of that. there are some good fellows in that course. He has to come to school on the street car and when in school is continually reaching into the air as if to grasp something. We think he is either reaching for the car-strap or else he has attached his wagon to a star and is trying to untie it. We hope he leaves it attached to the star.

When Stewart gets a little older, such men as Steinmetz and Edison will be forced to seek his advice or take a back seat. At the present time Stew is trying to perfect a non-skid side walk and is also working on a Hneverslipn collar button. The collar buttons will never help him for about once a month he rivets a clean collar on his shirt. Well if he sticks to his career he will soon be able to wear three clean collars a month in- stead of only one. 118 Slew ROY DAY DIEHL 'Crandman RICHARD HENRY CROUSE Identification-Five feet, one inch.

He certainly is small but you can't teach him anything aboutffwell when you stop to think about it there is not much that he doesn't know something about, even basket-ball.

Liz has another identification, that is his dirty white scarf. During the winter months, he could always be seen with it. It followed him around like a little white poodle dog. Besides being a star on the foot-ball team he is an inveterate base-ball fiend and in his own estimation can fill any position on a team from water carrier to bat tender. 119 I A Q ULiZn r la ..Dip,, EARL P.

No kidding, Dip is one of the good sports of our class, not forgetting that he has two awful big feet to contend with and they must be such a bother. Paul is sure to make some- thing of himself Qcharlie Chaplin can't live for everl, so here is the best of luck to him in the making. and never has a note.

He goes through his physical culture exercises regularly on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings at Danceland, the most for almostj famous of York's studios. Earl is not a prohibitionist but he lives in the East End, so he is for- given. It has only been since prohibition that his ambition has been to become a state cop. So to realize his ambition he has labored incessantly and with super- human effort at his trade of showing machines how to run. It's all right Earl, stick to your ambition and we'll all step for you.

Lawrence owns an automobile, consisting of four or five wheels and an engine which he sometimes uses when it isn't missing. It is a Troombly machine, more familiarly known as the Coffee Grinder. During the summer after his Junior year, Eck and the Shiek took a trip to Pittsburgh in this afore- mentioned Hgo and stop wagon. They traveled the entire distance without help from pedestrians.

If you can't rely upon our judgment ask HPrunella. l-le is, also, a fellow to be relied upon, one who generally accomplishes what he starts. The only failure that we can cite is the fact that he didn't get to play the part opposite Prunella in the Clio play. Pretty tough, Fritz, butyou shouldn't get jealous of Pirrot because she can't beat your time. Besides working in the shop every two weeks Fritz has landed a job at the HY .

School, wireless and dancing require all of Wayne's time. Wayne is a good student and has a fine radio outfit but it is his dancing that must take the principal part in this discourse. Wayne mastered the fascinating art of dancing at the tender age of fifteen. Although he is a good dancer his friends say he dances too long in one place. You know that cake eating stuff . If you have ever seen the movements of a jelly fish you can easily picture in your mind the manouvres he goes through.

'Tis said that he has been hired and fired on every job at the plant. Sort of a utility man, don't you know. l-le's working pretty steady now, for he's on his last job and if he gets Hred there won't be any new ones left for him. Experience is the best teacher, Tom. to offer about your personals, see this gentleman. He's the guy, who did the trick, or rather in some cases, he didn't do anything. Several of his Industrial buddies, he claims he did not know. Probably due to his very, very retiring ways. What? Anyhow he was the biggest worry the personal editor had during those trying days of getting the Class Book out. Next to wanting to become a good electri- cian, E.d's greatest desire is to dance. During school his favorite rendevous for this purpose was the Y. W. C. A., but since he has left that dear old institution, one can often find him at the Colesium.

Yawcob claims to be a regular shark at Pinochle, we don't doubt his word in the least. Take a peep at him. One can scarcely believe it, but this young gentle- man has been writing love letters since he was a mere infant, so you may know he is quite proficient by this time. With all these faults and virtues, Jake is liked by his fellow students in general and a few in particular. attends all of the Sunday School Con- ferences, socials, festivals, etc. The worst word we ever heard him say is Hclernf' But then we haven't been with him all of the time. Charles admits that he knows all of the swear words but he says he never rehearses them. Stick to it boy, you know your stuff. Craige is rather quiet in school but when he does burst forth in eloquence he sure says a big earfull. Brightness is a specialty with him. Charles, accompanied by a young lady, traveled to Steelton to see a foot-ball game. On the way home in the truck they sat about a foot apart. What's the matter, Charlie, bashful, or peeved because York lost the game? Good-bye, old top. 124 Crazge Itch HAROLD LEON KEHOE Identification-Smiles. Favorile Expression- Is that right now!

Harold is very fond of children and a distinguished cradle robber. I-Ie is always with girls who are in the Freshman or Sophomore Classes. That's all right, Harold, youth has its advantages over the grave. There not being enough girls in York to please I-Iarold, he immediately moved to York Haven and continued in his specialty.

L History of Alpha Debating Society By Curtis E. Resser N the year of l88I local ingenuity conceived the idea that a literary society was much needed at our worthy institution, the York High School, Consequently the harbingers of our recent activities were not content until a group of young men in the upper classes of the High School assembled in what is now the Old High School and organized the Alpha Debating Society. One week after the society was organized the first meeting was held and officers were elected and a constitution drawn up by such men as Mr. G. Heckert, Mr. F. Keys, Mr. W. Swartz, Mr. F. W. Porter, and Mr. S. W. Ziegler, the latter two are now prominent members of the present faculty. Mr. Keys had the honor of being elected the first president of the society. The constitution drawn up at this time is still in effect, though in a revised form. After the present High School building was built the society transferred all its business to the new High School from the Old High. The new surroundings illuminated the hopes and desires to make the society better and to give it a stronger foundation. ln May l882, A. D. S. held its hrst social function, this event being a soiree, and since that time this event has been held almost annually. One of the great successes of the society was the first open meeting held in l904. Due to the fact that other societies of the High School also have a public appearance at the end of the school year, this has resulted in harder and more earnest work, due to the friendly competition between the societies. The banquet held at the Old Valley Inn a few days before Christmas will be an occasion long to be remembered by members of A. D. S., as one of the most delightful and entertaining events of their school days. One of the crowning events during the year of I923, was the presentation of blankets to the foot-ball team, the presentation taking place one morning at the opening exercises before the student body. Henry Feder representing A. D. S. presented the blankets to Charles Spangler, who received the blankets in the name of the foot-ball team. A. D. S. was then given a tremendous ovation by the student body. With the coming of spring all the training and development acquired during the meetings of the year was centered upon the preparation of the l9th open meeting. Clt was at the beginning of the school year that Lambert Greenawalt, a former student of the High School and member of A. D. S., became a member of the faculty and critic to A. D. S., and this was an additional blessing to the school and the society.D The annual A. D. S. open meeting was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. After the usual preliminary events, the address of welcome by the President, Fredrick Eichelberger, followed by the devotional exercises, led by Chaplain Curtis E. Resser, the superior event of the evening, the debate, was successfully and ably presented. The question was, Resolved, That a general adoption of the closed shop in the United States would be beneficial to the public. The 139 efficient speakers of the evening were, Affirmative-Henry Feder and Neal Cockleyg Negative, James Cecil Gerry and Robert Martin. Charles Rudy gave a very pleasing recitation. One of the big events of the evening was the original oration delivered by Hugh Brown in a most pleasing manner. The concluding number on the program, the reading of a very witty and humorous journal by Frank Brockman, proved a fitting climax. After a conference of the judges they decided in favor of the negative. Now the time has come when we, the members of A. D. S. of the class of l923, must hand down to our successors the scroll upon which we have worked so hard, and have successfully and honorably led the society in its activities and derived benefits that will be of use to us regardless of our future vocations. But before parting allow me to leave this hearty wish to our successors: That with its added number of years A. D. S. will ever increase itself, in its successes and usefulness. A. D. S.

So in l90l an organization was formed called Clio, in honor of the Muse of History and Epic Poetry. The membership of this society is restricted to the girls of the Senior class, enough Juniors being elected at the end of each year to organize the society for the following year. This year the meetings were held on Wednesday evening of each week, at which time appropriate literary programs were given, and, once a month the Widow, the society's journal, was read by the editor. For the first half year, the following officers were elected: President ............... Charlotte Rudy Vice-President. . . . . Helen Ort Recording Secretary . . . . Anne Decker Corresponding Secretary. . . . Bernice Yost Treasurer ............... Frances Dromgold Miss Ida Frances Moody, Miss Nona Diehl and Miss Marguerite Livingstone were elected faculty advisers. One of our good times during the first term was the Christmas party, at which time each member brought a gift, and these were distributed by a jolly Santa Claus. Officers for the last term were elected as follows: President ............... Jean Bossert Vice-President , . . . . Marjorie Boyd Recording Secretary , . . . . Edna Graff Corresponding Secretary . . . . Anna Longstreet Treasurer ............... Edith Swartz Our greatest event up to this time was now at hand. On the night of January IZ, the annual Clio Soiree was held in the school gymnasium. This was a great success because of the unusual number of members present, the number being almost one hundred per cent. In ihe spring, Prunella was chosen for the annual play. This year we departed from giving a modern type of play and an all girl cast was selected, consisting of twenty-five girls. Prunella, a very pleasing and fantastic play, is an allegory on the subject of true love. Pierrot, a hero with his band of mummers, passes by the home of Prunella, who is being reared by three aunts. Prunella for the first time comes into contact with the outside world and is aroused by a feeling of true love. She is confirmed in this feeling by the words spoken by Cupid, a statue in her garden. Her escape into the world with Pierrot, whose love at first is not sincere, causes 142 him in the end to return to the garden where upon finding Prunella, his heart too, is changed by sincere love, this making his character through Prunella's good influence as white as his face is painted. Due to the splendid direction of Miss Livingstone with the assistance of two other faculty advisers, Miss Moody and Miss Diehl, this play was so great a success that the efforts in a new venture, regarding an all girl cast for the Clio play were well repaid and are well worth recommending for future consideration. This concluded the activities of Clio for this year, and we hope that the splendid attendance, the wonderful support of the members, and the willingness, and co-operation of committees of l923 will continue in the successive years.

Loveland, Jr. HE United States has been fortunate enough to have inherited almost all the gifts that former civilizations have bequeathed to the world. The result of these donations is the remarkable growth and success of our country. One of the finest of these heritages left to the world was life, example, ideas and literary works of Demosthenes, the famous Greek orator. It is this gift that has enabled a few men of our day to rival those great orators of the past. The works of this gifted Greek were jewels of perfect literature, even presenting no flaws when translated into the English language. Thus we can see that when in l9ll a band of High School students saw that the growth of the High School warranted the founding of a Society that would work along literary lines, and after searching thru the bright constellations of literary geniuses, how appropriate it was that the brilliant and outstanding Demosthenes was chosen as ideal and leader. All the courage and perseverance of this noble leader was needed to work the new Society into shape. The first Open Meeting was given a short time after the Society was recognized by the School Board, and from that time the success of the Society has been assured. We resumed our regular work last fall as soon as school opened. Perhaps it was the enthusiasm and spirit with which we started last fall, that enables me to say that this has truly been the most successful chapter in the long history of D. l... S. The fall and winter were marked by real hard work along all branches of our Society's activities. We introduced many new and novel ideas into our programs which added to the interest of our meetings. One of the most inter- esting was in the form of a mock trial. We soon found that it was time to stop work for a short time in order to enjoy the Christmas Holidays. These holidays meant something more to the D. L. S. members than mere holidays. They warned us that it was time for our big social event of the year, the D. L. S. strawride to Abbottstown. Even Nature co-operated with us in giving us an ideal night for the affair. Arriving at Abbottstown, with appetites made keen by the ride, we found that a welcome chicken and waffle dinner awaited us. Mr. Kunkle was toast-master, and a fine literary program, consisting of orations, recitations, original stories, speeches by ex-members and a journal, was rendered. After this a good social time was enjoyed by all. Then as a climax there was the ride back to York. The D. L. S. members and their friends pronounced this as the most successfullof the many D. L. S. straw-rides. Then we entered another period of real work. The fact that the D. L. S. was still maintaining her high literary standard was very clearly shown when D. L. S. members won all the D. A. R. prizes except those won by the girls. Our annual Open Meeting marked the approach of the end of the year. ln this Open Meeting we showed the public what we, as a Society, had been doing all year. Although this was a typical meeting, it also showed the depth of the 145 nn efforts and work that the members had been putting into D. L. S., and also the returns we were receiving because of these efforts. The program was as follows: Address of Welcome ..... ..... D avid C. Guhl Oration. .,..,...,,.. ........ D .

Those who attended this meeting were unanimous in saying that this was the best Open Meeting ever rendered by our Society. Again we have set a new standard which was truly the caliber of work which we as a Society were doing. The school year is rapidly drawing to a closeg and as it closes, so will our active work in the D. L. S. also close. We can never forget what that Society has been to us. It was one of the agents that really made our High School days Golden Days. Neither will we forget the training which it has given us, for the many times it will aid us in the battle of life will be a sufficient re- minder. Therefore our most sincere and genuine wishes are for the advance- ment of the D. L. S. We earnestly hope that the members who will now take charge of the D. L. S. will advance the ideals, fame, and glory of the D. L. S. another step on the ladder of successf' D. L. S. Members Seniors Gordon F. Ramer Russell E. Brillhart Roland W.

The purpose of this organization is to furnish social and literary privileges for members of the lndustrial Course. Members of the three upper classes in class standing are eligible for membership. On Thursday, lVlay 20, l9l2, the first meeting was held and a constitution adopted. This constitution was revised the following year and has ever since remained the constitution of the society. Mr. Stanley Zwieble was the founder and first major critic. The first open meeting was held May 2, l9l3 and the second April 28, l9l6. On ,june 29, l9l5, Mr. Zwieble was given a farewell banquet. Mr. G. G. Weaver continued the work from june, l9I5 to December, l9l7, and Mr. Lewis G. Crater from December, l9l7 to March, l920. Mr. F. A. R. Hoffeditz is our present major critic. The fourth open meeting occurred May IO, l9l8 and ever since that time it has been an annual event. Besides its weekly meetings the society has four special features each yearg a stag hike, a straw-ride, the open meeting, and a trip at the close of the school year. An ex-member, Gerald Reichly, has offered an annual prize of twenty dollars to be presented to the speakers at the open meeting. The judges for the contest should be a representative of the Manufacturers' Association of York, the Superintendent of City Schools and the Superintendent of a local firm employing Industrial boys. On April l3, I923, we held one of the most interesting open meetings in the history of our society. There was an audience present of about two hundred. The programme prize winners were: Chester Ciivler, firstg Clair Smith, secondg and Harry Fauth, third. During this year we also had our annual straw-ride and chicken and waffle supper, and a hike to New Salem, all of which our members will remember with pleasant recollections. On Saturday, May I2, l923, we took an automobile trip to Harrisburg. But the time has come for '23 when the l. S. will be a memory. Our greatest hope is that those coming after us will carry on and receive the benefits we have received from the Industrial Society. And in the future when we forget to play the game the spirit of the l. S. will spur us on-to excel.

Loveland WAY back in the ages, when the dawn of civilization was just breaking upon the earth, and Progress like a warm sun was casting her invigorating rays upon the land, the foundation for a great empire was being laid. We know how massive and solid this foundation was made, for upon it the unparalleled Roman empire was founded. We also l-:now the power and glory of that nation, and the many contri- butions she bequeathed upon the world. Now Rome has lost her glory. Her empire is dissolved. Her ideas and institutions have seemingly perished. How- ever, when we consider it carefully, we are able to see that her ideas exist today in our own country, only in different settings from the original ones. ln l920 several classical students of the York l-ligh School saw the close relation between the old Roman life and ours of the present. They also saw the logic in forming a society that would resurrect many of the valuable, inter- esting and instructive principles of Roman life. Accordingly the SOCIETAS LATINA was founded to better acquaint Latin students with the real, sincere and valuable side of Roman life, and to present Roman ideas in their most attractive settings. Due to the sincerity of the founders it was recognized as a regular High School Society, and the first meeting was held Jan. 30, l920. From that date until the present the S. L. has been maturing and developing, until now the S. L. is a society, of which the York High School is justly proud. 151 As soon as school started in September our regular meetings were resumed. One of our first acts was to have the School Yells printed and distributed. We started to work in earnest, and the progress of the Society was the result. The year soon passed by and we found it time for our Open Meeting. The efforts and work of the Society was reflected in this splendid meeting held in the auditorium March 2, l923. The program which was a typical S. L. one was as follows :4 Scripture Lesson ..,...,,........,. , . Helen Bush Value of the Classics ........,.. ........

Loveland The coming of Spring brings us our annual Social event. This year we are reserving it for very near the close of the school yearg but we are busy preparing for it, and it promises to be as great a success as all things attempted by Societas Latina. This event will bring our membership in S. L. to a close. We are now realizing the great amount of good we have obtained from S. L. Our most sincere wishes are for the future success and growth of this, our Society. We will forever be expressing our gratitude towards this Society for giving us literary instruction, historical knowledge, classical education, and most of all a keener insight and more sympathetic view towards those who labored here thousands of years ago in order that we might enjoy a high and developed state of civilization. ...l Societas Latina Members David C.

Wesley Wise N March IZ, l9Z0, a group of Junior boys met in Miss l..ogan's room in order to organize a History Society. Consent had been obtained from Mr. l-leinly and the School Board. Mr. Porter, Miss Logan and Miss Trimmer were the advisors. Edwin Moul acted as chairman and the first officers after the Constitution was written were: President Edwin Moul, Vice- President Adam l-lamrne, Secretary Arthur Feeling, Treasurer Chester Nicholas. The purpose of the Society is to promote the study of history and current events. The name chosen is that of Thucydides, an accurate and critical historian of the Periclean Age, who as a boy began the study of history. The society has been trying to fulfill the purpose for which it was intended and has also had some very enjoyable sociable events. Although the societylis still a minor one, it is loyally supported by the boys, who enjoy the study of history.

Hodgson, His assistant, we pay glowing tribute for his untiring eforts, especially in foot-ball. . -' - ,fd XFCGDQTQ LL tball Team 00 F Football CALL was issued for foot-ball candidates two weeks before the fall term by our new coach, Mr. John W. Weimer. After a few weeks of strenuous practice a formidable looking team was whipped into shape. Through the untiring efforts of our new coach, coupled with the fight and spirit of both the players and the student body, we met the enemy in the first game, at home. The game was lost mathematically but the full power and strength of our team was discovered and in the games that followed we lost but two. The victory that we feel most elated over is the game with Reading. This was an entirely unexpected feat because Norristown High School who were the champions of eastern Pennsylvania had only defeated Reading by one point while we defeated them by six. Another thrilling game was the clash with the steel workers of Coatesville. Although we went to defeat it is said by critics that it was the best game played by the York H. S. during the entire season. Capt. Charlie Spangler, who has played varsity foot-ball for four years, has proven his ability to handle the team through the greatest season we have ever had. To every man that wore the orange and blue we owe an everlasting debt, in helping to bring dear old High back to its own and assure us of a successful future. We were not held scoreless during the season. The scrubs must never be forgotten, for by their work the varsity is made. This is too often overlooked by audiences of any sport. The only game played by the scrubs ended in a tie with the Williams park team-a strong local team. Charles Rudy proved to be one of the most efficient managers in years.

Each year the teams showed more of the old fighting spirit that made York High famous in the years of the past. Following the football season during our first year the call for basketball candidates was made by Coach Walker Brenner. The first schedule of practice consisted of the inter-class games, with the result that will ever linger in our rrincls. Our team, a mere bunch of children, undeveloped and uncoached, showed the way in the league and when the final game was played and the official standing published we led them all with a record of all wins and no defeats. These heroes will never be forgotten by the members of 23 . The regular varsity schedule went through as usual with more defeats than victories. Class team of l9I9-l920: Philip Seyfert, Charles Brueggeman, Dick Strite, Charles Spangler, james Gerry. When the second year of our stay in Y. H. S. had rolled around our class team again established an envious record, but only succeeded in finishing second to the class of ,Zl whom we gave a terrific fight. But not discouraged our team promised a victory over their opponents to their supporters and true to their promise finished in the lead at the termination of the interclass contests. Our final year in Old York High found our former interclass team wholly disbanded. Being on the varsity squad was the main reason for the scattering of our warriors. With a new combination on the Hoor we soon found that 23 teams never say die. With each game a nerve-racking battle we finally went down to a glorious defeat, Hnishing third but still possessing our old tirne fighting spirit. No excuses need be made for the showing of our team. . The varsity was having trouble becoming organized and during both our Sophomore and Junior years did not have very successful seasons. Much praise was accorded to the student body for their loyal support under all conditions. When the I922-23 season rolled around everything at the school was in readiness to commence what was later to prove the greatest and most successful basketball season for many a year. The financial success of the football season made it possible to equip our team in a suitable manner and also to improve the gym in order to give the team better playing conditions. The fact that the season was a decided success need not be elaborated on for who does not know of the victory over our ancient and bitter rivals the Y. C. l. on the Coliseum floor on the night of March l4th. Half of the York police force were called out to keep the population of York out of the Coliseum on that memorable night. ln fact the crowd thafwitnessed that game has never before been equalled in this city. jarr es C. Gerry, better known as Cec, subbing for Garrett proved the deciding factor in our victory. His work was the talk of the town as well as the main topic of discussion around the school for several weeks afterwards. From that night on Gerry was no longer a substitute but a member of the varsity. Charlie Spangler cannot be forgotten either for it was 162 his stellar work on the defensive that kept the Y. C. I. score down, making it possible for the Orange and Blue to score a victory. Bud Wallace, also starred by holding Davenport to no field goals on March 2Ist. The second game with the Y. C. I., for the championship of the city, was so close that two five minute extra periods had to be played to decide the contest. Our team finally went down to the most glorious defeat any team ever suffered in the second extra period. Owing to a most unfortunate disagreement between the coaches of the two teams the third game, which would have decided the city championship, was never played, much to the disappointment of the High School rooters who were confident of the final outcome. Thus we take our hats off to John W. Weimer, the coach who made it pos- sible for a York High team to defeat the undefeated Y. C. I. quintet, which went through almost three seasons without being bumped. The business of the team was handled very efhciently by Harry Palmer of the class of Z3. The scores of our league games of I922 and 1923 were: january 6 Gettysburg High School away lost U I3 Reading High School t home lost U Z0 Steelton High School away won H 26 Lebanon High School t home lost February IO Lebanon High School away lost I6 Steelton High School t home won H ZI Harrisburg Tech t home lost H 24 Williamsport High School t home lost March 3 Gettysburg High School t home won H 9 Harrisburg Tech away lost I6 Williamsport High School away lost 23 Reading High School away lost The scores of other games were: ' December I8 Red Lion High School t home won 23 Columbia High School t home won Z9 Alumni won February 3 Lancaster High School away lost March I0 Philadelphia All-Scholastic at home lost I4 York Collegiate Institute won ZI York Collegiate Institute lost. 163 gals-:A 3 mg' :N . :MLA 1 .Wy TRACK 1 Tracie CCoach-J. W. Weimer.D MMEDIATELY after the close of the now historic 1923 basketball season came Coach Weimer's call for track candidates. About forty members of the school responded and at once began a strenuous training pro- gram as outlined by the Coach. The most hotly contested position seemed to be the Relay Team and all classes participated in the fight to make that team. After numerous trials the team to represent the York High School at the Penn Relay to be held at Philadelphia was finally picked. It consisted of Miller ..,..,,,,,,, . '24 Seifried ,,,, , ,,,, '25 Albach cc,c 24 Morse... . , '26 But the Relay team was not the only pebble on the beach. Gibbs, the husky shot-putter, distinguished himself in practically all the meets in which he participated. He easily earned the right to use his strong right arm in defense of Old York High's honors. Rudy, the lean lanky jumper of last year's team again captured the position of star high-jumper and demon- strated his right to the adjective star by soaring over 5 feet 3 inches in some of the meets. Charlie sure can jump. Needing a good miler Coach called on Rudy and as usual Charlie delivered the goods. Spangler, conceded to be a great football man, was not considered a star track man until this year. He showed many of the lads from rival schools the correct manner in which to throw the discus. As a short distance sprinter he was also a front line man. Wallace, taking a P. G. course, showed his old time fighting spirit by running the half mile at F. and M. We are sorry that Bud did not win but we are elated over the fact that he left Burns the wonder from Y. C. l. in his dust. McNelis by hard and consistent practice earned the right to use the pole against our ancient rivals although Myers gave him a hard chase. Deciding to abandon baseball for track, Coach Weimer entered our warriors in meets at: Franklin and Marshall College, Harrisburg Tech and York County. 165 Oh, yes! and there is Vern who jumps twenty feet two inches in the broad jump and shows some of those young gents at Harrisburg, Pa. how to jumpfmaking second for two years at that city-defeated by exactly M inch. fWe almost forgot Vernonf. Vernon captured second at the fair grounds and first in the Inter-Class Meet this year. Vernon Kunkle also placed third ir: the lnter-Class high jump. All in all our track team surely compared favorably with any in the state of our class. We hope to see big progress in this sport as Coach Weimer's system gets going. .l...l. I nter-Class T rack Meet Coach Weimer, after it had been discontinued for a number of years, again staged an inter-class track meet. Each class had a liberal representation in each event.

Cheer Leading lTl-l the advent of the greatest athletic squads for many years, the York High School has been probably the best school spirit shown in the whole history of the school. Often has the Meadow resounded with the cheers of hundreds of enthusiastic spectators, often have the foundations of the school been shaken and often have the walls of the Coliseum reverberated with the excited cries of the students of our Alma Mater as our team flashed down the floor. Yet altho all this is not due to any one individual, we have one who has been of the greatest aid in bringing our spirit to a peak. By this time you have already been thinking of our classmate, l-lenry Robert Houck. Hen, if my memory does not fail me, has lead the cheering of the student body from his Sophomore year until the day of his graduation. Many of our benefactors who have at various times lightened our labors for a period have been surprised at the rare ability of our cheer leader. Still we must not lose ourselves in our admiration of Henry. We must turn to his industrious co-workers who so ably assisted in the leading of the cheering. These gentlemen will be remembered as the Messers. Pfleiger '23, Spangler '24, Fahs '25 and Morse '26. If these humble lines can do no more it is at least hoped that they will bring to your memories a little of the thrill that you experienced as you watched the letters Y-O-R-K on the backs of our cheer leaders as they flashed before you during some hard fought contest or of the thrill that was heard around the worldy' the night our team defeated the invincible Y. C. l. The hardy grid workers and the basket-ball stars receive their laurel wreathes and ringing cheers and we but add these few words to remind you that none too great will be the credit that we can give to the loyal cheer leaders without whose help our victories would have been few. 168 Y ells Our Yells this year were noticeably improved through the efforts of Hen Houck and his corps of assistants.

We see in the broker's office Clarence Van Dusen and E.. M. Ralston, two of the three partner brokers, who very soon rise to meet the Bishop Doran, who greets them with the very pleasant news that the Church again had a debt and was in need of money and that Ralston's daughter had promised the small sum of ten thousand dollars to the fund. Ralston, in surprise, offers to double the amount if his daughter can raise her pledged amount. As the bishop leaves two new characters are introduced,-Dick Donnelly and Robert Bennett-the former the third partner and the latter a young man, deeply in love with Given Ralston, who has been engaged to sell bonds for the Ralston firm. Almost immediately Bennett is severely censured for his truth- fulness in the sale of bonds and stocks, and he, rashly enough, wagers that he could tell the truth for an indefinite time. The three partners immediately take him at his word, and they lay a bet of ten thousand dollars that he could not tell the truth for twenty-four hours. The wager included the requirement that Bob should not tell anyone of the bet and that he should do anything within reason that they required of him. A little later Given enters and Bob secretly tells her that he would try to give her the ten thousand for the church fund. Just before the curtain falls E. M. Ralston has a scene with two Hvampiresf, Sable and Mable Jackson. The second raising of the curtain discloses the parlor of the summer home of the Ralstons, where Bennett, according to the demands of the brokers, has appeared. Here many screamingly funny complications arise as Bob insults Ethel Clark, a guest, in his effort to tell the truth, and as Bob, still striving to win the bet tells Mrs. Ralston some of the scene between Ralston and the Jackson sisters. The curtain drops as the two audacious twins enter the very house of Ralston. With the beginning of the third act the Jackson sisters further increase the trouble made by Bob by telling a sob story. But it all ends well, as the clock strikes the last stroke of the twenty-fourth hourg and amends are made to all-even Mrs. Ralston is sufficiently appeased to receive her husband back into her good gracesgbut Mr. Ralston loses his bet with Bob, who gives the money to Given who, in turn, requires the broker to double the ten thousand dollars donation to the church. 174 The program was as follows: NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH Direction of EDWARD A.

Essay Contest EARS ago at a meeting of the Daughters of the American Revolution of the Yorktown Chapter there was passed a resolution instituting an epoch making contest, namely the D. A. R. essay contest of the York High School. The pupils of the High School were to write essays on any subject concerning our country at the time of the Revolution and the best essays were to be awarded prizes by the society. Since then the D. A. R. has conducted this contest. Again this year the members of the D. A. R. offered prizes to the best essays entitled: PENNSYLVANIA IN TI-IE REVOLUTION On February ninth, every senior set forth to conquer a prize with his pen, and on the twenty-third of February the members of the worthy society together with the judges assembled on the rostrum of the Auditorium and announced the glorious victors. The first prize was taken by a veritable glossary of facts and dates, and the second by an unsurpassable piece of oratory. The complete list of prize winners was as follows: First-Margaret Maughlin. SecondfFlora Cohen. Third-Gordon Ramer. Fourthflxflargarete Deitz. Fdth-Vernon Kunkle. Sixth-Mildred Hubley. Seventh-Ruth Hauser. Eighfhgjean Bossert. Ninth-Dorothy Lauer. ln view of the fact that a certain young lady presented a very excellent paper, altho it was, unfortunately, not strictly on the subject, the judges, by permission of the Regent and our class president, presented a five dollar prize to Beatrice Aughenbaugh in reward of her efforts. 176 X , NX N Rmu K X X v HM- 5X X 1, X X f' --457 ,X f A frQIiIELf5jg5x , H - fr -I JA: - -Q 1 - .20 Class Prophecy '23 I Timeel959 HE. day was exceedingly hot and stuffy and my armchair was just as un- comfortable. I picked up a telephone lying on the table and pressed a button bearing the label Aeroshed.,' I waited for perhaps seventeen seconds when a bell rang and I put the instrument to my ear. Hello, a voice said at the other end of the line. Hello, is that you, l..ichty? I asked. Well, I would like to see you im- mediately if possible. Yes, the butler will tell you in which room I am. Good- bye. I laid the telephone on the table and nestled back in my armchair to await the coming of the person I had just phoned. While I sat there dreaming, I thought of old York High and how I had risen to my present position. I may as well tell you what my thoughts were. How well I remember when I graduated from York High. I did not know what to do. I finally got work as a soda fountain clerk's helper with the salary of 36.79 a week. From there I went to a street car conductor's job. After that I had eight jobs, each lasting about three months. They were cleaning calendar dates for the market, manufacturing earrings, raising ponies for the use of pupils going to school, doing experimental on a stimulant for spring fever, making pencils without lead, making rubber corks, being nightwatchman at City Hall and manufacturing noise reducers for Ford automobiles. This last job led me finally to Mr. Ford's main plant, now at Strinestown, Pa. There I became familiar with every part of machinery in the place and was soon promoted to superintendent of the experimental department. After seven years, three months and twenty-one days, I stumbled upon an invention, skinning my shins and almost breaking the little finger of my left foot. Through my untiring efforts, Hartford Cord, of course, I had discovered something which later made me a multi-millionaire. This was it. After working on the Ford for so long, I decided I wanted to make some- thing a bit different. I took one of these machines and twisted it around, taking this off and putting that on and finally had a something, that, when certain levers were touched, the body of the Ford diverged into the wings of an aeroplane. My next task was to provide a rear end for my new invention. Completing this, after much work, I had my masterpiece finished. Certain levers could be manipulated to make it either into a touring car or an aeroplane. I gave Henry Ford the horse laugh and set myself up in business, stationing my enormous plant a little south-west of York, in order that I might use the wonderful horse-power, I mean water-power, of the beautiful Codorus creek, now a swift little stream with a sluggish current. Among the applicants for jobs, I found Russell Lichty, my old school-day friend, who was willing to work for any price, but demanded 81.23 an hour. I, among the few, knew of Russell's wonderful talent, and made him my chief mechanic. As my trade grew, my factory grew and at present it would make the York Manufacturing Co. look sick. The name of my new hair raiser was the Aeroautocraft. In the course of a few years, it was known over the whole world, including Dover, Brillhart's Station and Lancaster. As I said before, I became a multi-millionaire, possessing a vast estate, consisting of a mansion and severaluaeroshedsf' To make a long story shorter, here I was, enjoying riches which were far superior to those of Charles Chaplin, film starg Hon. Henry Morton Feder, the country's biggest 178 broker, mostly broke and David C. Guhl, worId's noted theologist on the evo- lution of fleas, and still thinking of the good old days when I went to York High. I was brought out of my meditations by the voice of one of my servants, who said: Mr, Lichty, sir. I looked toward the door and seeing my chief mechanic standing there, I beckoned him towards me. After he had seated himself, I said: Get this Rus, we are going on a trip lasting about three days and will visit some of the largest cities of the world. Yes sir, responded Lichty, when do we start? Right now, I said. I am tired of Ioafing around here. UVery good, sir, was his reply. There will be a new aeroautocraft on the side driveway in about half an hour. Dismissing him, I quickly packed a suit case with a few needed articles, and awaited the arrival of the aeroplane or automobile, it does not matter which. When it was stopped at the foot of the steps of the porch, I said to Lichty: Fly from here to New York and from there to London, and don't let it take you all day when you can do it in a day and a half. The aeroplane shape was speedily made and I climbed into the seat directly in back of the driver. Soon we were sailing along at about 287 miles an hour, I already feeling a little better from the change of scenery. After perhaps forty-seven or forty-six minutes, I discerned the sky-scrapers of New York outlined against the clear azure sky. We went down until we were just above the roofs of the high buildings and slowed down our craft to about five miles an hour. Suddenly I saw a roof garden where there was a special place for the landing of aeroplanes. Stop on that roof which has the sign 'Radio Bend Cafe', I shouted in the driver's ear. He nodded his head and directed the plane towards the place designated. After landing, I got out and with Lichty, I walked to a table and seated myself. In about one and a half shakes of a lamb's tail, a waiter was standing at our side. We both gave our orders for a glass of orangeade with sliced bananas. As we waited for the order, a big heavy set fellow came strolling along. He had a huge black mustache and was bareheaded and baldheaded, too. I took him for the proprieter. and as I looked into his face, it broke into a broad smile, and he rushed towards me with outstretched arms. If this isn't Bob Myers, my name is mud,', I cried, and in a few seconds we were chattering away like a coupI'a monkeys. Bob owned this joint and in appreciation of meeting us, he gave us our order at half price. A few minutes later I thought the building was falling but on turning around I discovered that the orchestra had started an exceptionally jazzy piece. What was my surprise when I found that the leader of the orchestra was Russell Bush and on taking a second look, I recognized Rosella Coover, Permilla Moore, Lillie Hoover, Theodore Stough, Mildred Kohler, Ruth Kuntz, George Bear, Richard Gemmill, Roy Diehl, William Brown and Wayne C-uyer as his assistants. I went over and had a talk with them and while I was standing there two very flashily dressed women entered the garden and took seats at the center table. In spite of the fact that they were Frances Dromgold and Marjorie Boyd, they didn't even notice me. Bush told me they often came here to show off their expensive gowns. I walked over to our plane and after Lichty looked over the motor, I got into my seat and prepared myself for the long trip across the Atlantic to London. The start was made and as we ascended into the air, another Haeroautocraftu slowly passed us. I recognized the driver to be Hugh Brown. I shouted to him but he did not hear me. 179 ln a short time we were going at maximum speed again. After flying about twelve hours and thirty-seven minutes, I sighted land and on drawing closer, I made out the foggy city of London. I shouted to Lichty to find a field some- where in the outskirts of this metropolis. It did not take him long to End one and we landed. After leaving orders that I would be back in an hour, I started to walk, I did not know where. l soon became weary of wearing out sole leather and boarded an uptown electric car. Perhaps I was a little slow in getting on and the conductor shouted, All aboard, we don't have all day. When I paid my fare of eleven cents, I looked into the face of the brisk conductor. So and behold, here was Charlie Bruggeman, earning his living as door tender on a no pushemwno pullem wagon. In my thoughts I told him to keep at it, that's how I got my start. Of course he did not recognize me and I seated myself in the front part of the car. As the car speeded onward I noticed many points of interest. One store window had painted on it R. DOTTERER and G. GILLESPI Wireless Supplies and Straw Hats It looked as if they were doing business the way the people were rushing in and out. The car stopped and the rough voice said, All off, going West immedi- atelyf' When I alighted, the beautiful strains of music reached my ears and I looked from whence it came. A large crowd was gathered about half a block away and I went to see what all the excitement was about. To my amusement, I saw a company of people representing Dale Smith's wonderful corn cure. I made them out to be Pauline Shue, Vernon Miller, Gertrude Wright, Raymond Landis, Hannah Ferrell, joe Hollinger, Marguerite Grafhus, Harold Kehow, Austin Richard, Hazel Senft, Carl Shellenberger, Elmer Hartman, Charles Strayer, Lawrence Eckenrode, Kathryn Frederick, George Johnson, Helen Brillinger, Lillian Cooper, Laoma Smith and Abraham Miller. Some were singing and those who were not singing, played banjos, namely Elmer Hartman and Harold Kehow. Suddenly, the music stopped and Abie Miller got on a soap box and began moaning about the wonderful corn cure. Here is where I left, knowing what a speaker Abie was. I roamed around the streets and it gradually came to me that I was lost. I passed a shoe store with the sign on the window, RALPH JONES Shoes of All Kinds and Rubbers There were three men in shirt sleeves standing in front of the store, who I recognized to be Ralph Jones, Earl Kauffman and Richard Crouse. I greeted them and then told them about my predicament. I described the place where the plane was and Jones said he lived next door and told me how to get there. Leaving them, I started to walk, thinking I may see some more strange sights. After walking for about fifteen minutes, I came across a man who was looking for something. It proved to be james Cecil Gerry, and I asked him what he was looking for. He said he lost his interest and couldnyt find it. I knew there was something wrong with the poor fellow and turned him over to a policeman, much to the protest of the crazy old man. I soon reached the plane and found I..ichty sleeping. He awoke and I told him that the next stop was Paris. In less than two and a half minutes we were in the upper atmosphere, sailing directly for the elite city of Paris. Feeling drowsy, I fixed myself comfortably in my seat, deciding to get a little sleep before reaching our next destination. I did not know anything until I was awakened by a good shaking. As I opened my eyes I saw Lichty taking off his overalls. 180 Where are we, and what are you doing? I asked. We have reached Paris and I am preparing myself to take a walk, was his response. Then I sat up and took account of my surroundings. What was my surprise to fmd that the plane had landed on a large aviator's Held and was surrounded by large sheds and huge war planes. I stepped from my seat onto the ground and stretched myself to fully awaken me from my recent slumber. So this is Paris! I said, and I remembered what the American soldiers said about this French capital the first time they saw it. Let's stroll around a bit and then ride around this joint and take in the sights. As we walked around we saw many things of note. On our approach to a shed which appeared to be a repair shop, a man or something ran from the door. He went for perhaps ten feet and then striking his toe on a stone he sprawled his full length in the dust. We ran to help him to his feet and when this was done, we recognized him to be Russel Brillhart. Of course he was glad to see us and said he had a surprise for us. We followed him back into the shed and were startled by several voices crying in unison, I-Iurrah '23! When we had time to think, we saw several familiar faces back of some benches. They were Ralph I-Iowett, David Gresly, Walter Miller, Jack Seyler, Clair Rowe, Wesley Wise and Charlie Keeney. They said that they were chief mechanics in this official French aviation station. Some mechanics, if I must say. Stonewall', Brillhart told us how we could get off the grounds and we bade our friends adieu. On reaching our plane, I decided to go on my tour of inspection alone. I told Lichty to be back in about two hours. When I left the grounds I became lost immediately and trusting to my luck on getting back to my starting place with the help of a few questions, I went on my way. I walked for about thirty-three or thirty-four minutes and finally founi myself in a park. I couldn't read the name, it might have been Creek or Yiddish for all I knew. It looked like Russian, though, having exactly five k's in the name. I found myself getting tired so I seated myself on a bench. I picked up a newspaper and glanced over it. Not being able to read it, I looked at the pictures. My surprise was painful when I saw three pictures which were familiar to me. The words looked like divorce and preacher under them. The picture of Manning Gibbs was in the center and he was in the costume of a preacher. On either side of him was a picture of two people, a man and a woman, who brought back pleasant memories. They were Robert Martin and Beatrice jones. Alas, I had to see them parted, but not knowing the circumstances, I convinced myself that Bob was not to blame. Suddenly, around a bend came several fellows, dressed in track suits. It took only a second to see that the runners were 'flakien Bowers, LeVerne Krall, Robert Smith, Paul Hall, Earl Zinn, Paul Lutz and China Kottcamp who was a little in back of the bunch. They didn't see me and I didn't have the nerve to stop them. About eighteen or nineteen seconds later, Vernon Kunkle came along on a bicycle. He had a watch in his hand and was dressed in citizen clothes. I guessed he was the trainer. Getting tired of such sights, I got up and made my way into the busier section of the city. At the edge of the park, I saw a house which had a sign on the front door- D. HAYDN STOUCH, Studio I couldn't read the remainder of the sign but I suppose it meant violin expert or voice culture. 191 Further down the street I entered a drug store to get a soda. Frank Brock- man and Roland Loveland were back of the counter talking about something. When they saw me they were very pleased and both wanted to take my order at the same time. After talking with them for a little, Frank told me to go to see the show being played at the Theater Dome de Luz in the next block. I left them and went searching for the playhouse. I did not have any trouble fo find it and buying a ticket from the girl in the booth, Elizabeth Bruhl, I entered just as the curtain was going up. I almost walked by Chester Givler, who was ticket taker. The only seat I could find was in back of a fat lady and I could hardly see the picture on the screen. After about five minutes of this misery, she got up and left. As she turned her face in my direction, I recognized Mildred Keeney. My attention was then centered on the next part of the program. It was a drama, that is, it was supposed to be. Frances Baker came in with a baby in her arms, registering terror. The scene was in the interior of a room. Soon, Eddie Harbaugh, the villian, came in and saying a few words snatched the baby and ran off. Carl Brosend, the hero, entered, vowing to get the child back. The curtain fell and everybody applauded. I didn't know what they were applauding about, so I remained quiet, waiting for something else to happen. There was a disturbance a few rows in front of me and on looking what the trouble was, I saw Sarah King and Margaret King arlguing. One said the villian got away and the other said the hero killed the vi lian. Getting restless, I was about to leave when the curtain again arose. This time the scenery was more elaborate. A chorus of girls entered, dancing and singing. Vvhen they stopped their frolic, I saw among the chorus Mary Lind, Myrtle Kinneman, Hannah Sanders, Ethel Metcalf, Edna Graff, Ruth Houser, Flora Cohen, Marguerite Dietz, Ruby Lehman, Edith Peeling and Kathleen Serff. The star then made her appearance, receiving much applause. A man next to me said she was very good. On looking at her closer, I made her out to be Florence Palmer. The comedian, Joe Rieff, cracked off a few stale jokes and then the chorus started to dance again. I finally lost interest and went out. At the door I met Miriam Oldhouser and Dorothy Lauer just coming in. I had not gone far when I came across a show window which bore the sign H. WILT and J. BOSSERT And on entering the store I discovered it to be a beauty parlor. Both young women were glad to see me and told me of their big business. Upon looking around I discovered Catheryn Peddicord, Helen Spangler, Ada Brown and Evelyn Waltman taking beauty treatments. They told me to look up a certain address and receive a surprise. I immediatelly set out to hunt for it. After much trouble I found the place and certainly it was a surprise. It was a corner grocery and when I went into the store I found Marie Tschop Barnhart, Mildred Yost, Annamary Spangler, Dwight Kilbourne, George Guyer and Wilbur Shellenberger as clerks. They told me that this was store No. l926 of the great Neuman Chain Stores, noted all over Europe. Clarence must have worked some to get up this far. I always knew it was in him. Going out of the store I was just in time to see two high powered machines run into each other. When I had pushed myself through the quickly gathering crowd of people, I was just in time to see two men pick up the driver of the one car and carry him away. It proved to be Rooster Ness. I soon discovered that the occupants of the other machine, Helen Ort, Kathryn McKee, Anna Longstreet and Charlotte Rudy, were not injured in the least. Their chaffeur, Earl Becker, was a little shaken and had broken a couple finger nails on his one hand. The crowd did not last long and I was soon by myself again. 192 Suddenly, somebody slapped me on the back and there was Vernon Arnold. He seemed in high spirits and I asked him what his trouble was. He said he got a whole ton of coal in his cellar that morning and was out celebrating. Lucky boy. I pulled out my watch and was startled to see that my two hours were up, so I asked Vernon to go along back to the aviation field with me. When we reached the field, Lichty was already there. I told him what I had seen and then he told me of some familiar faces which he encountered on his walk. jim Allison had a doctor's ofhce, Julia Felty and Mary Cundrum were con- ducting a hair dressing parlor, Robert Fisher was running a butcher shop and had Jake Hose and Phil Senft as clerks. Isabel Spangler owned a photo establish- ment and had Peggy Williams, Mary McCracken, Kathryn Thomas and Evelyn Hoffman as models for advertising circulars. Lichty said that all were prospering and in good health. Saying good-bye to Arnold we again set out, this time for Constantinople, quite a big jump. Night overtook us but we kept on going until we saw the lights of some big city. I decided to land and wait until morning and then see where we were. A landing place was found with much difficulty and we fixed the plane for the night. I went to sleep and did not awaken until six forty-three the next morning. To my utter astonishment I found everything hustle and bustle around me. Men were going back and forth with picks and shovels. It did not take me long to discover the man who appeared to be the boss. He was tall and was dressed in a kaiki outfit with leather puttees. As he turned his head, I immedi- ately saw the face of Charlie Rudy. I hailed him and in a few seconds I was clasping his hand. What are you building here, Charlie? I asked. Oh' This is the site for the new Constantinople Asylum, was his hearty reply. I am chief engineer on this job. I suppose you don't know that I'm an engineer in the Pfleiger and Palmer Construction Co. Inc. It is one of the biggest in the country. Boob Pfleiger and Andy Gump Palmer remembered me and here I am, starting a big job for the Turkish government. I surely was glad to hear this and wished him all kinds of luck. He told me that the nearest city was Constantinople, about one and two-third miles away and added that I should pay a visit to Charlie Spangler at the Imperial Palace. The Haeroautocraftn was made into the automobile shape and we directed it towards the large Turkish capitol. Upon entering the city, I alighted from the machine, telling Lichty that I would meet him in front of Lhe Imperial Palace in about two or three hours. The sights here were certainly much different from the others. As I walked along the street, I noticed any number of stands containing pottery and vegetables. At one stand in particular I saw Joe Barley and John King, crying at the top of their voices, their wares of dried fish and pineapples. It was an amusing sight. Further down the line I saw an old fellow who appeared to be a fortune teller. He wore the characteristic Turkish costume and had a long beard. It did not take me long to recognize him to be Luther Leibowitz. He wanted to tell my fortune, but I knew he was a faker so I passed on. I was walking for perhaps ten minutes when who should I bump into but Bill Bender, Edgar Bluckinger, and William Messerly, all in the uniform of officers in the Turkish army. They greeted me and I had a good talk with them. They alsovtold me to visit Charlie Spangler and I bade them good-bye, directing my steps toward the Imperial Palace. It was not hard 'to find, because it was the largest building in the city. When I saw it, I was amazed at its beauty. It certainly was a palace, with a long Hight of stone steps leading to the main entrance. 183 After I had climbed to the top, I was about all in and I seated myself on a bench near the entrance. The door opened and Elizabeth Stahle came toward me. His Honor, Mr. Spangler, has witnessed your approach and wishes to see you immediately, was her Salutation. I followed her and after walking through some of the most marvelous rooms and halls I had ever seen, she finally stopped in front of a huge iron door made of silver. She pressed a button and the door swung open. I thought my eyes were deceiving me when I saw Charlie Spangler, surrounded by a young mob of fair damsels. He came toward me and I noted that he wore the characteristic clothes of a sultan. He was glad to see me and after having a short talk with him, he led me into the midst of his harem. Here is where I thought I was dreaming, for, as I looked from face to face, I almost thought I was back in York High School, facing the senior class from the rostrum. I did not have to take a second look to convince myself that the familiar faces belonged to Edith Rogers, Myrtle Shettel, Edith Swartz, Ann Brunhouse, May Gallatin, Ruth Deppen, Naomi Gibbs, Mildred Diehl, Catherine Stair, Dora Kunkel, Aldis Miller, Mable Hunter, Beatrice Aughenbaugh, Anna Paules, Suretta Myers, Pauline Shewell, Bernice Yost, Glen Maughlin, Ester Sonneman, Beatrice Shetter, Helen Bishop, Isabel Gross, Charlotte Fry, Anne Decker and Elizabeth Fisher. Everybody tried to talk at once and the result was that I couldn't hear what anybody said. Suddenly a door opened and who should come in but Henry Houch, smoking a big, black cigar and with a girl on each arm. Upon a closer scrutiny, I recognized the two lucky girls to be Bernice Trout and Mildred Hubley. After I had recovered from my surprise, Charlie showed me over the palace. The first place of interest which we came to was a large swimming pool. Several people were doing the fancy high dives. They were Harris Kaplan, Fred Eichelberger, Stuart Craumer, Harvey Trone and Willard Albaugh. We next came upon an open space where several would-be actors were rehearsing one of Shakespeare's plays. Among the participants were Charlotte Diehl, Geraldean Thomson, Anna Maul, Ruth Johnson, Marion Long, Russel Bowman, Neal Cockley and Mildred Sechrist. The acting was terrible and we left the spot. It took us about thirty-nine or forty-one minutes to go through the whole place. It certainly was fine. After having another talk with the bunch, I went out to await the coming of the machine. While I was standing along the street, I heard the music of a banjo and of singing. Upon searching for the source, I discovered George Bricker and Eddie Beck coming down the walk. George was playing the banjo and Eddie was singing while a little monkey trailed after them. Surprises were in order, so I took this one as a usual thing. They didn't see me and I didn't attract their attention. Lichty soon came along and I told him to journey directly to Pekin, China. I was feeling IOO per cent better by this time and did not mind the long ride. When we reached our destination, I again decided not to use the machine but to go on foot on my sight seeing tour. The first thing that attracted my attention was the sign' if THOMAS HELLER, Jr. Real Estate and Fish Food for Canary Birds What surprised me was that quite a few of the signs were in English. As I stood looking at the sign, Romaine Gruver and Elizabeth Diffendarfer came from the ofhce. They were talking rather loudly and I supposed they were discussing or cussing one of Tom Heller's raw deals. 184 I was startled by the blowing of a trumpet and when I turned around, the first thing I espied was a group of Chinese soldiers coming down the street. They were doing double quick time and I scented trouble. The leader, Paul Diffendarfer, shouted commands to his small band of regulars. Then confusion started. People began running to and fro, almost knocking each other over, Windows went up and women screamed. A mob came rushing down the street and I had to hold to a tree in order to keep from going with them. I recognized many familiar faces in the crowd as they passed. Some were Mary Groom, Earle Diller, Margaret Maughlin, Mildred Ness, Hannah Sutcliffe, Sara Lutz, Ruth Botterbusch, Gavin Miller, Albert Boyer and Margaret Mc- Sherry. But what was this all about? I .topped Edgar lVIacBride, who was almost lost in the rush, and 'questioned him. HThe bandits are coming, the bandits are coming! he cried. Get out of hire before it is too late. just then a ound a corner, a block away, came a band of men, firing shots into the mob. At their head I saw Diz Lucas, urging his followers on with word and sword. In the front ranks I saw Curtis Resser, Arthur Bustorff, Jack McNelis and Arthur Mundis. I thought it was time to leave so I quickly made my way up a side street. Luck was surely on good terms with me for I saw Lichty with the machine a little ahead of me. I called him and when I had caught up I told him to get to the open country as soon as possible. When this was done, a field was found and the aeroplane shape hastily made. Hit for York, Pa., as fast as possible, I said and in less than no time we were going 300 m. p. h. While we were flying through the air at that terrible speed, I reviewed the events of the past few days. I had seen many familiar faces, everybody happy at his or her occupation or pastime. Now, I could have pleasant rest. As I turned the happenings over in my mind I came to the conclusion that the wealthiest person does not always have the real riches. It is the happiest person who enjoys life, whether he be king or pauper. 185 September October October November November I4 November December December December December December December December December january January January january January January January January January january January January January january February February February February February February March March 26- -Color fight started and ended.

Flapper You may play and romp and cheer While youyre safe in Freshman Year, And you dance and loaf and cram CWhen forced to do it.D But when it comes to flunking, And the Faculty are junking All those Wanting in the balance, You will rue it. Now I didn't seem to thrive In the Class of twenty-five, And the teachers up and flunkecl me mighty mean And of all the facultee, The hardest on poor me Was the stern. serene and silent woman Dean was Dean, Dean, Dean, My goodness, mam, you won't can a girl Who's been a model scholar? Tho' I'm far too proud to holler For another chance to pass I hunger, Dean, But she slung a cutting line And she liquifiecl my spine And she left me worth a counterfeitecl mark. So I sold my books and junk And I harnessed up my trunk And I hunted up another place to park But before I said good-bye To the girls with whom I hie Ancl to the fellows that I'd met upon the green I tied a piece of line On that bouncing clean of mine That I think should 'ave really stung a Dean. It was Dean! Dean! Dean! You can never hope to have your conscience clean For you've chuckecl me out of school While I'rn still a gay young fool And I'll likely die a house-wife. O My Dean! IH!! S Dedicated to the Junior Class Three years have passed but like a day, And in that time we've had to pay By study hard o'er midnight lamp And suffered from the writer's cramp Till seniors now, by all admired, And still one year is yet required. lt's hard to pass this senior year, So let us pray our brains be clear, lt's long and careful we must toil, Far in the night we'll burn the oil. O'er lessons for the next day's class, That mean to us a Hunk or pass. 0ur social obligations, too, We must Hnd time to see thcm thro, For what's in life if all is work. The date and dance we cannot shirk, To cram our heads, too full of facts, Brings naught if our poor brain reacts. We all worked hard to get a Y. We took the bumps without a sigh. We've run the ball thro downpouris drench And at the game we'd warm the bench. But all the same we're satisfied, With memories of having tried. But summing all in one sad thought We're sorry too that we've been caught ln the stream that Hows, too swiftly by That carries us from old York High To industry, where whistles shrill, Into a life that tests our skill. 191 Q i Senior English Once more our English class convenes, in room I IA, It's to our learned teacher, that we our homage pay. The atmosphere is calmed and hushed on this mysterious day, We all filed in, our books laid down, and let her have her say. It's Ruth whose always talking, says she in solemn tone, And Luther is not in his seat but that I might have known, And Gordon you're not funny, you just seem to look that way, If you really are a baby, then we'II have to let you play. And Manningflay you pencil down, more of that I cannot bear, You're always drawing portraits with horns instead of hair. Please Majorie, stop your laughing or you may go outside, Or to Professor Heinly and to him your joke confide. And 'jakel' I'll get a cushion or have the desk made just your size, So when I want to see you, I won't always have to rise. With this she took a side glance at Feder over there, The boy who wears the goggles and has dark brown strubbly hair, A chew was in those jaws of his, a grin was on his face, If he moves his mouth another inch, it'll sure be out of place. The King twins, with their haughty stares, glance all around the room The day's been dull, the class is blur, they're out to chase the gloom. Now Sarah is the tall one and lVIiggsey's just the same, Whoever put them in that shape, he sure should get some blame. When speaking of the good girls, there's Beatie, I contend, She's always good, she never talks on that you can depend. Edith is a good kid, too, but sometimes she gets wild, When teacher spanks, she takes it, just like a model child. About Frances, I can't think, just what I want to tell. She studies hard, Oh yes she does! and knows her lessons well. And then big K'Casey Rowe is here, the man of foot-ball fame, Who hit the line, and fought his way, through many a foot-ball game. I-Ie doesn't hit the line so hard in English, by the way, I-Ie'd sooner have them take him out, at least that's what they say. Another star we've in our room, his name is HI-Iugyu Brown, He's done a lot to help his school, since he came to our town. So on and on this poem could go, If I but had the time And then I'm worried also for I'll soon be out of rhyme. Though we did have our ups and downs--however A jollier crew, I never knew, to ever get together. IIIII L S few gm W M ug I 1 xx I 5 ff-'W y W 4 ff,- :WW .1 rf 1 5 f af L frm ffwfns?
