Class i istorp □ □ Hear this verse of the Class of Thirty, And our years at Wilson High, Ot lesson learned, ot joy and trouble. Work and play in days passed by. As Rats we found life quite a muddle hile we ate of humble pie. Studied, puzzled, got in trouble. Watched with envy Seniors high. Sophomores think they’re quite important. Joining all the clubs and teams. Now we think they’re very lowly. Far away our “Soph” ciay seems. It’s a thrill to be a Junior, Quite important then we are. With a hand in organizations -And our Senior day not far. Seniors now, we are the leaders, •And our busy days just fly. With a touch ot heartfelt sadness In the thought of soon good-bye. Here’s to the teachers ot Wilson High, We’ll forget them never; To them we owe our high school joy — I ' heir spirit shall guide us ever. The Junior-Senior farewell treat. Class rings, songs, and plays, “Hall of Fame” and “Presidents’’ Fill our too short days. Springtime and cap and gown, -And friends’ separation. Farewell and parting With June graduation. Farewell, beloved Alma Mater, Dear triends and teachers, all good-bye F.ver happy will be memories Of our days at Wilson High. “Peggy” Rossell, ’30. 56 Clags ropfjEcp □ □ To an oracle did I wind my way Your fortunes to foretell, In a cavern dark as the deepest night This oracle doth dwell.

Success has come through the co-operation of both Student Council and the general student body. Beside the routine work of the Council, diligent efforts have been put forth to better conditions in the school generally. The outstanding results obtained may be evidenced by the new seating arrangement in the auditorium, the orderly food line in the cafeteria, the posting of signs designating the kind of food sold at the different counters, the filing three abreast in fire drills, and the tagging of un- sightly lockers in order to insure cleanliness in the halls. The Council collectively put on a delightful program in the auditorium regard- ing character building. The Publicity Department presented for adoption a creed or code of conduct by which the students were urged to govern their actions. This creed embodies the principles of honesty, loyalty, sportsmanship, self-reliance, health, truthfulness, courtesy, and tolerance. □ □ Harold Carper Sherwood Butler Clara MacKenzie Charles Garner Catherine Costello . .

Its members have continued the course begun last year, the study of modern one-act plays, and have given “Cabbages and Kings” and “The Stepmother” as a part of its program. In addition to the study of plays, Lanier girls have entered earnestly into the annual interscholastic contests sponsored by the LIniversity of Virginia and have developed fine debaters who, at this writing, are looking forward eagerly to the contests with Maury and Newport News. In December Lanier presented the splendid classic moving picture of “The Man in the Iron Mask” to a large and appreciative audience. 115 116 LEE LITICRARY SOCIETY I.CC Hitcrarp ocietp □ □ OFFICERS Robert Hill Hall Snellinos Henry Walsh Edwin Swartz Jack Costello Miss Audrey Vincent President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer ....

At each meeting there is a debate on some interesting and important cjuestion of the day, and a talk given by some member of the club. This trains boys to make speeches. By this training they are enabled to stand before a crowd without feeling any effects of stage fright. It enlarges the vocabulary and opens the mind to popular questions of the day. This past year has been a very successful one in both debating and public speaking. The Society had thirty-five members enrolled and a large attendance at each meeting. On January 8, 1930, the Lee Literary Society gave a program in the auditorium jointly with the Shakespearean Literary Society, the girls’ society for debating. A debate was held which was won by the Shakespearean, though both sides debated admirably. The debate was: Resolved, That Generals Leave a More Lasting Influence Than Poets. The Lee Literary Society upheld the affirmative, while the Shakespearean Society upheld the negative. This year has been a most successful one and the Society hopes to continue its success in the future. 117 118 shakhsp(-:ari-:an litkrary socihi y tjafecspcarean Eiterarp octetp □ □ OFFICERS Charlotte Matteson Claudia Major Nancv Lee Codd Marion (Joodman Ruth Robertson Miss Virginia Griffith President . . .

At one meeting, tableaux were presented of famous French characters such as Louis XIV, Richelieu and Napoleon. We have also made an acquaintance with several French writers by having short stories read. On several occasions we have nad musical numbers from French composers. The club gave the motion picture “Beau Geste,’’ which met with great success. The club was asked to sell tickets for “Cyrano de Bergerac,” a famous French play presented by the Portsmouth Teachers’ Association. The French Club picnic at Ocean View was so thoroughly enjoyed last year that the club is planning to carry out this custom this year. 123 124 i:i.

The purpose of the club is to bind together more closely these members who have been chosen as leaders by their classmates, in order that the regular w ' ork in Physical Education may be carried on in the gymnasium and on the held with better results, and that the club may function as one large unit in creating a sentiment for the best among the students at Wilson High. On the first Friday night in December the club held a big party in the gym. Each leader was given a card on which was written the number ot a table. Several games were played at card tables with the winning couples progressing, and a prize was awarded the boy and girl having the highest scores. “Penny Wise,” a game using Indian head pennies, was also played. Punch and cakes were serv ' ed during the evening. Another party is being planned for the spring. 144 Sctit)il abc£( iJtl Club €spanol T he programs of 1929-30 dealt with Spain. Elerselle Jackson in October gave a most excellent talk on the chief cities and their essential character- istics, followed by entertaining “chistes,” or jokes in Spanish, enacted by Gertrude Mero and Edward Weston, in costume. By way of variety a program under the direction ol Senorita Norsworthy consisted of native songs by a group of “senoritas” and a number of “juegos,” or tricks, performed by her. “Teresita,” a playlet by Marcial-Dorado, was presented at the club’s New Year’s meeting, and received great applause. ' I ' he play was given partly in Spanish and partly in F’nglish. Those taking part were: Elizabeth McGalliard, Juanita Spalding, Virginia Griffin, Clelia Thompson, Ralph Elart, Clyde MacHorney, Eoster Venturini, Charles Cross and Elliot Wade. “Ramona,” based on Helen Hunt Jackson’s famous novel of the same name, was presented on March 6th in the auditorium before an appreciative audience. Two programs were devoted to a topic of international interest — that of the expositions held at Seville and Barcelona. Earewell and “feliz viaje” to the Senior members of the club marked the program for May 21st. 14.5 extracts Jfrom tfje Biarp of a jHcmfacr of tfje BtScipuli Sntiquorum □ □ September 23, 1929 — Our first assembly.

O boy! our picture this year is “E,vangeline.” We shall roll in the “pecunia.” Robbie Hill’s reci- tation “Felix” extracted laughter until the tea rs flowed in abundance. November 6, 1929 — We decide that a curtain is most necessary for our playlets, one of which is presented to us today. It is entitled “A Day Without Latin,” and was highly applauded. The President appointed Miss Levitin to see about pins tor the Club. Dece.mber 4, 1929 — O Di Immortales! What fun preparing for the holidays!

The meetings have been held regularly on the first and third Wednesday mornings at the Activities Period and both in attendance and interest, there has been encouraging progress. The programs have consisted in the main of live debates on current issues and selected readings and declamations from well known orators. There was unusual interest this year in the elimination contests for reading, public speaking and the debates. There were about twelve entries for the debates and at least six for the reading and public speaking contests. -As a result of the elimination contest the debaters selected were Edwin Swarts and Charles Cross as principals, with Julian Marcus as alternate. Hugh Glisson was selected from among the contestants for public speaking and Erederick Hill was chosen to represent the High School in the reading contest. 147 tubent Club □ □ Motto: “To Face Life Squarely” □ □ T HROLCiH the skies ol 1929-30 has flown the good airship “Student Club.” In its wake has been left many a happy loading in the form of a well spent day and hour. The propeller has been a blue triangle and a symbol which every true member has striven for; it has served as a “Holy Grail.” The Student Club took a considerable “altitude” this year with the new form ol work, the interest groups. They have been very enjoyable and profitable. ew advisors, too, served as pilots and guiding “sticks.” The Chief Pilot and her officers have been the means of “three-point” landing. Its cargo was a bag of mail which carried in it the things every Girl Reserve seeks and strives for — the “Prayer Book,” the “Song Book,” the “Fun Book,” and the “Ideal Book.” There have been v ' arious entertainments for the “Hi-Y,” for mothers, for fathers and the “Cabinet,” and even Turkish suppers! But with it all, when the good ship “Student Club” was safely tied to its moorings, each member had sought “To bind and Give the Best.” 148 iHotton picture Council □ □ D uring the year 1929-30, the Motion Picture Council with the aid of several clubs, has sponsored a few feature pictures that have been entertaining as well as instructive. The Council’s part in presenting these programs has been exhibiting the picture and general management of the auditorium, such as arranging curtains and collection of tickets. For the Motion Picture Council’s part in the presentation of these programs, twenty per cent, of the net proceeds was received bv the Council. The Motion Picture Council is composed of a group of boys who are interested in moving pictures. Membership is secured by making application to the advisor who selects additional me.mbers as they are needed.

' • y f ■ PORTSMOUTH PO .C LIBRARY 601 COURT nY DT«MOUTH« VA. 23 W • C I V 1 CM i FRANK “WEENIE” WILLIAMS, Captain, Tackle A tower of strength in the line, fast down under punts, and an aggres- sive tackier were the salient points which won “Weenie” a well-earned po- sition on the All-State eleven. Experience and ability, combined with his grit and quick thinking, made him the best tackier in the State and the most valuable man on the team. 151 jfootball 3ersonnel RF.(JINALI) “BABBY” HOI.TZSCHKITER Captain-Elect Fullback “Babby’s” playing was of the highest order throughout the entire season. A terriffic line- plunger, sure tackier, and heady passer, he was the mainstay ot the team. We are confident that “Babby” will make us an excellent captain for next year. CHARLES “CHARLIE” GARNER, Halfback Possessed of a pair of nimble feet and natural football ability, “Charlie” was probably the mainstay of the 1930 President combine by virtue of his keen and sare defensive plaving, and his elusiveness when carrying the ball. Wilson will sorely miss him next year, but Wilson’s loss should be some college’s gain. CHARLES “CHEESIT” DENNYS, Guard “Cheesit” was another big factor in the line. Quick to take advantage of every break, and always on the aggressive, “Cheesit” was tjuick to break through the opponent’s line and smear the play before it was well under way. JA. IP:S “JIMBILLIE” WOOD.ARD, End “Jimbillie,” another member of last year’s football machine, demonstrated clearly that fighting spirit can overcome the disadvantage of lightness and enable a player to break up play after play aimed at him. ATWELL “NIGGER” B.ATI ' EN, Quarterback Handicapped by a series of injuries which kept him from playing a great part of the games, yet “Nigger” successfully ran the team like clock- work. Many of Wilson’s gains were the result of the good generalship of Batten. PEEBLES VINCh:NT •Although Peebles proved himself of Varsity material, he was seriously injured the first part of the season, and had no chance to demonstrate his merits as a backfield star. However, great things are expected of him on the gridiron next year. ROBERT “NIGGER” BRLIT, Center “Nigger,” pivot man of the team, turned out to be a center of exceptional ability. He and Holtz- scheiter backed up the defensive line in fine style. “Nigger” was an accurate passer, good with his hands, and a sure tackier. 152 jfootball erisonnel CLARENCE “BOOTY” GARNER, Quarterback The diminutive “half-pint” quarterback, whose heady running of the team, combined with his accurate passing, won him a well-earned position on the Varsity. With several more years to play on the team, he is predicted to be the best quarter- back turned out in recent years. HAMPTON “HAM” ANDERSON Playing his first year of Varsity football, “Ham” immediately became noted for his fleetness of foot and his ability to put much space between himself and would-be tacklers. Time after time “Ham” would get away around the ends behind the splendid interference of Holtzscheiter and (iarner. WALTER “F. ' TS” LAKIN, Guard “Fats” proved an excellent running mate with Williams on the offensive, and a stone wall on the defensive. He will be one of our best bets for the Championship next year. JULIAN “MONK” BUTLER, Tackle Big and lanky, fast on his feet, and adept at using his hands, “Monk” proved himself one of Wilson’s best linesmen. Although plays were repeatedly hammered at him, “Monk” kept his feet like a seasoned linesman. CECIL “GENE” AUSTIN, End “Gene,” the long, lanky President end, proved to be a vital factor in the football combine. .Although an excellent tackier and receiver of passes, his ability as a punter proved his strongest point. In no game of the season was he outdistanced in yardage. WILLIAM BILLY D.AVIS, Guard “Billy” is an able and fast guard. Though handicapped by a bad leg from the beginning of the season he always gave a good account of him- self whenever seen in action. ELMER BROOKS, Manager Elmer held down his position as manager in an efficient manner throughout the entire season, coming out very often and working as hard as the members on the squad. 153 JfoottiaU ©antes □ □ WILSON VS. GOLDSBORO ® ILSON opened its football season by playing Goldsboro, the first Carolina team played in the history of the school. Although the two teams battled on even terms for the first quarter. Goldsboro came back in the second quarter with an aerial attack which counted for two touchdowns before the Presidents could break it up. Throughout the third quarter, the Wilsonites made consistent drives at Goldsboro ' s line, but each time they lost the ball due to fumbles occurring at critical moments. In the last and final quarter the Presidents failed to put it over in a series of line plays, so they turned to an aerial attack, with Holtzscheiter doing the passing. A long pass from Holtzscheiter to Vincent proved a success, and Vincent carried it over for the Presidents ' first touchdown. After the kick-off C. Garner led his team- mates in a series of plays which placed the ball on Goldsboro ' s lo-yard line. Holtzscheiter slipped a pass to Austin for the second touchdown, winning by a single point, 14-13. WILSON VS. SUFFOLK Playing their second game of the year against the Peanutmen from Jefferson High, of Suffolk, the Presidents failed to maintain the continuous offense which was necessary for victory. It was a nip and tuck affair between two evenly matched teams, and when the hostilities had ceased the score proved to be the same as at the beginning of the game. 0-0. The Presidents showed flashes of brilliancy with Vincent, who was easily the star for the Presidents, dis- playing real ball-carrying ability. Williams showed beautiful consistency with his punting, sending long spirals dowri the field. Suffolk’s fullback was the most consistent gainer of either team, hurdling and bucking the line for steady gains. WILSON VS. DANVILLE The Presidents started their scholastic season with an easy victory over Danville by the score of 27-6. When playing on the defensive the Presidents smothered everything that the Danville boys had to offer, and on the offensive the line opened up holes large enough to drive an automobile through. The broken field running of Batten and Ander- son. together with the line plunging of Holtzscheiter, accounted for the Presidents’ four touchdowns. During the last quarter Williams blocked a kick which resulted in a safety, making a score of 27-6. The game ended with the Presi- dents on the road for another touchdown. WILSON VS. PETERSBURG The fighting Presidents journeyed up to the lair of the Goobers of Petersburg to battle for one of the toughest games on their schedule. The young executives showed one of the most startling reversals of form ever put up by a Wilson football team. The Presidents opened the game with deadly earnestness, smashing the Petersburg line and skirting their ends for vital gains. The Presidents clearly were the better football players during the fti L half, with Anderson and Holtzscheiter getting away with long slants off tackle and around the ends. The half ended with the UA I Goobers leading 6-o, by virtue of a Wilson fumble behind its goal line. Petersburg came back in the next half and demonstrated the same superiority that Wilson had enjoyed in the first half. The Goober boys scored twice in the final period through an intercepted pass and by a pass of their own which was completed. The game ended 19-0. WILSON VS. NEWPORT NEWS Clearly outplaying the Shipbuilders of Newport News for three quarters and leading by the score of 6-0. the Presidents then suffered a relapse and the Golden Typhoon of Newport News, which had proven to be nothing greater than a gentle zephyr thus far. gathered speed, twisted and howled through and around the Presidents, until it had scored two touchdowns. The Presidents after forcing the game for three quarters decided to turn everything over to the trusty toe of Austin, who had been booting long high spirals down the field throughout the game. Such punting, good as it certainly was. could not hold the whistling Typhoon of the Shipbuilding City, and the game ended a tragic climax for the Wilson followers, who were forced to change their hopes for a 6-0 victory into the realization of a 12-b defeat. C. Garner was easily the star for the Wilsonites, both on the offensive and defensive. West proved himself best for the Shipbuilders. WILSON VS. HAMPTON Outplaying their opponents in every department of the game the Presidents defeated the Hampton Crabbers by the score of 12-0. Throughout the game the Presidents, with Holtzscheiter doing most of the ball-carrying, kept the Crabbers on the defensive. Besides playing a great game, both on the offensive and defensive, Holtzscheiter took away the honors of the day by scoring both of the touchdowns. The accurate passing of B. Garner was one of the features of the game. WILSON VS. SALEM Fighting gamely from start to finish, the Presidents fell before the smashing attack dished out by the Wolverines of Salem High School on the Roanoke College field at Salem. Inability to hold the ball ruined the Presidents’ chances for a victory, and Salem converted a fumble and an intercepted pass into touchdowns, one coming in the second period and the other in the fourth quarter. Williams and Austin put up a nice game in the line for Wilson. In the backfield Holtzscheiter was the most consistent ground gainer. The whole Wilson team showed wonderful pluck and fighting spirit, but was handicapped by the costly fumbles that seemed to be the order of the day. The final score was i 3-0. WILSON VS. SOUTH NORFOLK Displaying an aerial attack throughout the game that completely bewildered the South Norfolk Tigers, the Presidents defeated them by the scoie of 2 1-6. Wilson’s first two touchdowns came as a result of passes. Booty Garner, hurling the ball with astonishing accuracy, with Anderson and Austin on the receiving end. B. Garner. Anderson and Holtzscheiter played a great game by maneuvering end runs and line plunges, the latter intercepting a pass and running 35 yards for the third touchdown. WILSON VS. MAURY In the High School football classic of Virginia, the Thanksgiving Day meeting of the Maury Commodores and Woodrow Wilson Presidents, the boys of the City of Norfolk crashed the lines and slanted the ends with plays of machine-like precision to run up a total of forty-eight points, which was more than enough to overshadow the seven points that was the total of the Presidents ' scoring. The lone Wilson tally came by a long pass from C. Garner to Austin. lanl Wilson end. After this counter, the Presidents never presented any serious threat to the substantial lead of the Commodores other than a gamely fighting defense. 4 155 156 I-OOI BALL SQUAD REGINALD BABBY” HOLTZSCHEITER Playing a hard and steady game throughout the season “Babby proved himself to be a captain of exceptional ability. He clearly demonstrated the “never-give-up spirt by leading his team-mates to win the city champion- ship in spite of the odds against them. Captain. Tioltz s ch.etter ' 157 pasfeetball erfiionnel □ □ WILLlAxM “BILL” HOFLF.R, “Bill” displayed great skill as Manager of the Varsity throughout the entire season. Fie did his part as well as the members of the squad. His schedule was well planned and balanced. H.AMPTON “H. M” .ANDERSON, “Ham” playing the second year on the Var- sity, won for himself a place of noteworthy credit. His long shots and speed spelled defeat for Wilson’s opponents. With him as captain ot next year’s team, we will maintain our con- fidence in Wilson’s “Fighting Five.” ARTHUR “SKUNK” OWENS “Skunk” earned a position on the Varsity by his accurate shooting and good floor work. His best games were played during the tourna- ment, in which he became the leading scorer. ELVIN “SN.AG” PORTER .Although Porter was not one of the first forwards, he participated in nearly all the games. “.Snag” proved to be an excellent running mate with Owens, especially during the tournament. CECIL “GENE” AUSTIN Time after time did “Gene,” the long, lanky pivot man of the team, get the tip-off from his opponents. “Gene” became the star at the end of the season by being the high-point man in most of the games played during the tourna- WILLIAM “BILL” COBB Playing his first year on the Varsity, “Bill” held his. position down like a veteran. “Bill’s” best games were played against the strongest teams, in which his guarding became the feature of each game. ROBERT “NIGGER” BRITT •Alternating with Cobb for a berth on the ' arsity, “Nigger” proved to be a guard of exceptional ability, finding action in the majority of the games. The squad will greatly miss Britt next year. 158 pasifeetball fJergonnel □ □ IRVIN COIN Coin’s Junior V’arsity schedule was the best ever planned for the second string. He arranged games with some of the best intermediate teams in Tidewater. ROBERT “FERGIE” FERGUSON The great showing that the second string displayed throughout the season was largely due to the excellent shooting and good general- ship of “Fergie.” FR.VNK SELLERS .Vlways playing a steady and fast game, Frank added much flash to the contests of the Junior Varsity. He was generally utility man, and his playing was of the highest quality during the entire season. ALBERT FARY Displaying great form throughout the season, Fary built a combination with Ferguson which ran like clock-work. He will be one of the best bets for the Varsity next year. GORDON “G” MOORE Even if Gordon was not eligible to perform action in the Varsity games, his floor work, com- bined with his accurate shooting, greatly aided the Junior Varsity. LEROY “PEACHY” BECK Although “Peachy” was not out for the team until late in the season, he greatly helped in the Maury game and during the tournament. JACOB “JAKIE” BARNEY Handicapped by being the smallest man on the team, “Jakie” overcame this by turning out to be the fastest. His passing and floor work greatly helped the second string. 159 IBagfeetbaU (games! □ □ 1 LSON started off her basketball season with a rush, .‘ lthough it is to be regretted that she lost many conference games, we can feel justly proud of our team for the showing that it W B made at the end of the season by winning the Y. M. C. k. Tournament, demonstrating that the boys never gave up. Looking over the entire season we find that the Presi- dents played twenty-five games, of which fourteen were victories and eleven defeats. During the season Wilson scored 712 points to her opponents’ 690. WILSON VS. PETERSBIIRG Playing a steady and consistently good game, the Presidents opened their scholastic court schedule with a 21-14 victory over Petersburg High. Being the first conference game, the boys showed great form in both the offense and defense. The game clearly showed that Wilson’s “Five” was well-balanced. WILSON VS. H. MPTON Wilson’s basketball quint defeated the Hampton High five in an exciting and hard fought game, 33-22, on the opponents’ home court. It was a nip and tuck battle until the closing minutes of play, when the Presidents came back after trailing the “Crabbers” by a point or two throughout the game to make a spectacular spurt and forge to the front by a point lead. Their second battle, which proved to be the most exciting game of the season, ended in a victory for Wilson by .Anderson making a spectacular shot from the middle of the floor at the closing second of play, making the final score 27-26. WILSON VS. SUFFOLK Coming back in the second half to overcome a four-point lead with which the “Peanutmen” of Suffolk led the Presidents during the first half, the Presidents showed flashy form combined with team work to roll up enough points to make the final score 36-28. It was a well-earned victory for Wilson, WIL.SON VS. NEWPORT NEWS Setting a fast pace from the outset, the Shipbuilders downed the Presidents in a fast and close game, by the score of 20-11 in the first meet of the season. Their second meet also resulted in a defeat for Wilson by 14-8, which proved to be a very exciting and well-played game. WIL.SON VS. M.AURY Fighting gamely to the last the Presidents were handed two defeats by the slashing attack of the Commodores, once on the opponent’s court, 37-16, and the second on our home court, 35-15. .Although the Presidents were outclassed in both games they displayed a form that made the Commodores fight for what they got. .At no time of either game were the Commodores able to have time to rest. ♦ ■At the end of the scholastic season, after being defeated by several conference teams, the Presi- dents entered the Y. M. C. .A. Tournament with a determination to win the trophy. During the four games played in this tournament the WiLsonites were easily victorious. Showing their best form of the season, Owens and Austin became the stars by leading the league in scoring, respectively. For winning this tournament the team was awarded a gold trophy and the members were given gold basketballs. 160 Captain GobL WILLIAM B LL COBB Playing his second year with the Varsity, “Bill” proved to be the most consistent player on the team. As a heady fielder and a good hitter he con- tributed much to the winning of the championship. 161 162 Baseball personals □ □ ROBERT “BOBBY” DAVIS This is “Bobby’s” first year on the Varsity and although inexperienced he has displayed a good brand of ball throughout the season. ARTHUR “SKUNK” OWENS Not only was “Skunk” the general utility man of the team, but he also was one of the most con- sistent hitters. There were only a few games in which he did not see action. GEORGE HOWARD As a heavy hitter, steady fielder, and good base runner, George was a valuable man to the team. JOHN “IKE” SMITH .Alternating with “Skunk” on the pitching staff of the second string, “Ike” proved himself to be a good relief pitcher. ELVIN “SN. G” PORTER “Snag’s” pitching has been the chief factor in Wilson’s winning the championship. Having pitched against and defeated all of the Class “ A” teams in Tidewater, we can easily call “Snag” the best pitcher in this section. JOSEPH “JOE” SELF “Joe” has the honor of hitting the first home run of the season. His fast fielding greatly aided in Wilson’s long string of victories. CECIL “GENE” AUSTIN Besides being a fast fielder, “Gene” has proved to be a heavy hitter. With two years of experi- ence he should be one of the best fielders in the State next year. ATWELL “NIGGER” B.YI ' TEN Always playing an aggressive game and taking advantage of every break available, “Nigger” played a splendid game throughout the entire season. LEE ROY “PEACHIE” BECK Playing with plenty of pep and go, “Peachie” hantlled himself like a Varsity veteran, playing at shortstop has been the feature in many of the games. CLARENCE “BOOTY” GARNER As one of the few veterans from last year’s squad, “Booty” has been the mainstay of the team. His steady fielding at third and slashing hitting have greatly aided in winning the championship. CHARLES “CHARLIE” GUYOT The winning of the championship was largely due to the schedule arranged by “Charlie” for the Varsity. WILLIAM “BILLY” D.AVIS In the games in which “Billy” showed action he conducted himself like a Varisty man. His best game was played against the Peanutmen of Suffolk, in which he made several hits. 163 iBasieljall (games! □ □ X spite of the tact that the team was composed mostly of green material, the Presidents started the season determined to win the State Cham- pionship. The team so far has licked up to the goal it set by claiming the lidewater title, and at the time of this writing only one more game has to be won to win the State Championship. WILSON S. NKWPOR ' r NF.WS Wilson’s baseball team turned in its first victory of the season by defeating the Shipbuilders of Newport News in a rather exciting game by a score of 7-2. Bouncing hits, combined with the excellent support behind the steady pitching of Porter were the merits for our victory. WILSON VS. H.AMPTON Playing an airtight game of baseball and with hits whenever needed the Presidents romped on the “Crabbers” of Hampton High with a landslide victory of 12-2. The pitching of Porter and the fielding of “Booty” Garner were the outstanding events of the game. WILSON VS. MAURY Playing a game of revenge for the preceding sports, the Presidents entered the game determined to defeat the Commodores, which they easily did by a well- earned victory of 7-4. The entire team showed much team-work throughout the game. WILSON WS. NFAVPOR ' r NFW’S Fielding sensationally behind the airtight hurling of Porter, ace moundsman of our team, the Presidents defeated the Shipbuilders in their second meet of the year on the latter’s diamond, giving us our second consecutive Tidewater Interscholastic Championship in the most exciting game of the year by 6-2. 164 Captain Anderson HAMPTON HAM” ANDERSON Having the “speediest” pair of legs combined with the “springiest” ankles on the team, “Ham” did great things in the many events he partici- pated in this year. With two years of experience to his credit we are ex- pecting him to break many records next year. 165 4 ummarp of IKracfe iWectsi Name First Apprentice Second Apprentice Tidewater Anderson Non-Participant Non-Participant Tied 2nd — High Jump 2nd — Pole Vault 3rd— Half Mile Fary 2nd— 440-Yd.

He had gone to sleep thinking of the many unpleas- ant features of the voyage and awoke with his thoughts still on them. First, the food had been poor every day; second, the boatswain was becoming more surly and unreasonable, and the weather for days lad been damp and misty. All of these depressed Jimmie and made him terribly blue. “Oh, heck!’’ he murmured. “Another week yet!’’ The ship was returning to San Francisco from Bombay. On the bunk beneath Jimmie’s sat easy-going Charlie MacDonald, seaman, whistling merrily as he dressed for the day. He was a good-natured, shiftless fellow who, though a good worker at any deck job, was entirely lacking in ambition and wanted to be nothing more than what he was — a deckhand, roaming the seas. “Cheer up, Jimmie!’’ roared Charlie. “What’s eatin’ yuh ’’ Jimmie scowled and said nothing. He was gazing at Charlie’s dog, which , had crawled from under the bed and sat watching his master. The dog’s name was Ruff. An appropriate name; for Ruff, though plainly three-quarters real bull-dog, was one-quarter mystery. He was a dirty white; built broad and squat, with short straight legs so heavily muscled as to seem bowed, a chest as wide as a board and a face such as to send a shiver of fright down the spine of any person. “Yuh sure look down and out, old boy. What’s wrong?’’ “Aw,” grumbled the mess boy, “I’m sick of it all — everything!” “Yuh know the world’s what yuh make it, Jimmie. Yuh can be anything yuh want.” “Yeah?” replied Jimmie. Could ... he, anything ... he wanted, could he? He with hardly any schooling, a mess boy on a tramp ship! Charlie, what right did he have to talk? For twenty years he had held the same job, a deckhand. “Why don’t jyo« be what you want to be?” snorted Jimmie. “Maybe I am. Sonny.” He picked up his hat and walked out, with Ruff following in his wake. Jimmie made his way to the galley, and set about lighting the fires, his first duty. Captain Nickols paced the floor in his office. “I don’t like it,” he muttered. By it he meant the tiger which was being carried to a circus in America. “If my wife and baby were not on the boat, I wouldn’t mind so much,” he continued. “With this storm raging, that tiger is far from being secure in that frail cage.” The tiger’s angry scream rose to a blood-curdling cry, and Captain Nickols glanced at his forty-five caliber revolver on the desk. Not much of a weapon to battle a full-grown tiger, he told himself. 177 Charlie was one of the men sent to strengthen the cage and while he worked, Ruff and Jimmie sat near, gazing at the tiger as he paced the floor of his cage. Ruff, one eye closed, sniffed scornfully. He wasn’t afraid of anv overgrown cat, he told himself. In fact, he had never been afraid, as far as he could remember. Nevertheless, Ruff was a peaceful old fellow and never looked for trouble, so he was content to stay beyond reach of those flashing claws. The seamen, having finished their jobs, moved off and Ruff arose and followed Charlie. “Mess boy!” hailed Captain Nickols from the bridge of the ship. “Come here, mess boy.” Jimmie climbed the steps to the bridge. “You’re supposed to be helping the cook, aren’t you. You’re shirking duty. You’ll never gain anything by shirking duty, son. Don’t you want to be master of a ship someday?” Jimmie didn’t think he would ever be so he said, “No, Sir.” The Captain frowned at this. “Not if you shirk work; you have to work to get ahead.” Jimmie left the bridge with a sneer. He master of a ship! He laughed. “I ain’t never had a chance and ain’t no use to nobody. I can hardly read, and I coiddn’t learn to navigate no matter how I tried.” Having finished his duties with the cook, Jimmie was going to the deck, when he met the Captain’s wife and baby near the engine room hatch, where it was comparatively dry. “Have you seen the Captain ” she asked. “I’m dreadfully afraid of that tiger’s breaking loose. My room is flooded, so I had to leave.” There was the boom of a huge wave hitting the deck and timber crashing. loud scream of the tiger followed. “The tiger is loose!” cried Mrs. Nickols. “Quick,” replied Jimmie, “we must make the bridge!” No sooner had they reached the upper deck, than they were confronted by the tiger. Standing on his hind legs, the tiger was pawing at the wreckage about him. •At the sight of them, he roared, lay flat on the deck, and prepared to spring. Jimmie and the Captain’s wife were paralyzed with fear. The Captain’s wife crouched on the deck, protecting her baby with her body. Charlie, hurrying to find refuge from the tiger, ran unexpectedly on the scene. .And in the same instant there appeared Ruff, his bulldog, who wasn’t afraid of anything on earth. Looking slowly about him, his gaze lingered on Charlie, then came to rest on the tiger. Ruff advanced slowly — deteryninedly — and placed himself squarely in the animal’s path. The two animals looked at each other for a moment. ' I’hen the tiger, quick as a flash, sprang on the dog. But Ruff was ready and as the tiger sprang, he jumped for the tiger’s throat and clamped his mouth on it. The tiger was surprised and stood motionless for a moment. Then he roared, and lifting himself on his hind legs, slashed at the dog. Ruff, mangled terribly, hung on until he was dead, and then was dropped to the deck. 178 Mrs. Nickols screamed. Jimmie cried out, then ducked and ran like a deer between the tiger and the railing of the boat. Charlie cried out with rage and reaching for a fire axe sprang between the tiger and Mrs. Nickols. “He killed old Ruff!” sobbed Charlie, as he braced himself and swung the axe back over his shoulder. The tiger sprang again, this time at Charlie. But something strange happened. Instead of completing his spring, the tiger stopped in the air and fell cat-like to the deck. At the same instant, Charlie brought the axe down on the tiger’s back, severing his spinal cord. Charlie wrenched the axe free of the body of the dead tiger and jumped back. What had stopped the tiger in his spring? And then he saw, beyond the dead tiger, Jimmie, the mess boy, bending over a piece of rope he had tied to an iron cleat on the deck. Jimmie had seen the rope tied to the tiger’s leg and the possibility of breaking the tiger’s spring. The next afternoon the storm had passed over, leaving the sea calm. The crew assembled on deck to pay honor to Ruff. Captain Nickols led Jimmie and Charlie aside and placed a hand on the shoulder of each. “I can never repay you two for what you’ve done, and I know you two don’t want pay, but I must do something to give you an idea of how I feel toward you. Tell me what I can do for you, and if it’s in my power I’ll do it.” Jimmie knew what he wanted. Ruff had shown him. “I want to studv and be something, maybe a captain, when I get older. Will you learn me navigation. Captain?” “You bet I will, Jimmie! I’ll make a mate of you before many a year; and I’ll see that you are promoted right away.” “And me, too,” cried Bill. The services to Ruff were impressive, following which, he was let down in the sea, into a watery grave. Phii.ups Claud, ’30H. 179 S Senior’s Siiea of a perfect (?) ©ap □ □ Phone call at 7:00 A.
