History of the Freshman Class AuHEN us Freshman kids pranced into the Ye} High School building last September, 7 everything was strangely different from the Grade School we had just been thrown The teachers were very awe-inspiring until we be- came better acquainted with them and found that they are regular fellows. As soon as the daily grind began, we started our Society. When time came for our annual play, we decided on ‘‘Mrs. Briggs of the Poultry Yard” and after careful thought, Mrs. Davies, our coach, chose the following cast: Mrs. Briggs, Marguerite Childress ; Jimmie Briggs, Harold Aldhizer; Ralph Briggs, Clem- mer Coyner; Virginia Lee, Mary Ann Dunlap; Daisy Henkel; Mr. Lee, Montague Scott ; Alviry, Mehitabell, and Mellisy, Katherine McCrary, Lorraine Yancey, and Hazel Coyner. Music was provided between the acts by Eleanor Frankhouser, who sawed away on her fiddle, and Josephine Barnette, who marched up and down the keys of the piano. Profits amounted to about $75. We have subscribed to Current Literature and a new equipment cabinet will be made for the Science classes, out of the play proceeds. ay 45) ro)

Track Woodrow Wilson’s track team, although small in numbers, was quite effective in garner- ing points in two track meets of the 1930 season in which it was entered. Harry Lough, class ’30, was the outstanding star, not only of the school, but of all class B schools of the state. Entered May 3, 1930, in The Virginia Athletic and Literary League meet held at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, he set a new record for class B schools of the state in the running broad jump, winning first place, and his letter, by plowing through the atmosphere for a distance of 21 feet, 134 inches. Not only did Harry bring home the blue ribbon in this event, but he finished second in the 440-yard dash, and with practically no rest, turned around and took fourth in the 100-yard dash. On May 10th, Harry went to Harrisonburg for the Shenandoah Valley meet for high schools and starred as the individual point-getter of the affair, turning in first in the broad jump, 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-yard dash, and would probably have won the pole vault should he have been allowed to enter that event. His four firsts placed Woodrow Wilson third place in the meet. Too much credit cannot be given him for wonderful per- formances on the field and track. z Kenneth Bartlette, class 30, concentrated on the 8 80-yard run, and in both the Char- lottesville and Harrisonburg meets he placed in the preliminaries, failing by narrow margins to place in the finals. Thomas Beaty, ’31, entered the shot put and discus hurl at Charlottesville and, although he failed to place, exhibited promise of developing into a point winner by next year. In low hurdle practice after the Charlottesville meet he injured his knee and was unable to enter the Harrisonburg fray.
