Williston Academy 1915 Yearbook

ifforptundi

N the presentation • of this "Log," the fourteenth annual publica. tion of school activities at Williston, the Editors have introduced a few radical changes and have endeavored to conform to the size of the Senior Class. These changes it is hoped will be acceptable to the school and will furnish a pleasing contrast to former Publications. We have endeavored to represent not only the Senior Class, but school activities of every nature.

We wish to extend our thanks to all who have assisted us in any way,to Hart and Howe for their sketches, to Hitchcock for his poem, to the Editors of the Class Editorials, to those who have contributed to "the Grinds," and to the printers who have taken great pains to give our book a neat and pleasing appearance.

We sincerely hope that this book may awaken reminiscences in years to come of our never-to-be-forgotten school days, with their many joys and friendships formed,.and that everyone will be entirely satisfied with the results of those who have endeavored to compose a fitting memorial for the year.—The Board.

IZOFE,SSOR GEORGE HOYT HERO prepared for college at Worcester Academy. He graduated from Tufts college in the class of 1889. He is a members of Zeta Psi fraternity and Phi Beta Kappa society. • After several years of study abroad, he taught in St. Paul's School, Garden City, L. I., and in Newton High School, Massachusetts. Prof. Hero came to Williston in 1908 as instructor in Latin and Greek and as Master of Payson Hall. His thorough knowledge of the classics and the ability to impart it to his students has made him invaluable to Williston as an instructor. As Master of Payson Hall, he is admirably fitted. His patience and :sympathy with the boys, his ready and capable response to those who seek his aid, have brought him the affectionate respect of those under his charge. Through his management Payson Hall has become a desirable place to live in; through his influence the occupants each Year are as one large family.

Prof. Hero takes a lively interest in athletics, especially in the games played with Worcester Academy. His talks at the mass meetings have tended in a large measure to strengthen the friendly feeling of Williston for Worcester. His clever and uplifting talks at chapel and at yarious other exercises have won for him the respect and adthiration of the students.

A man of magnetic personality, cheery disposition, a refined, cultured gentleman, is Prof. Hero. To those who know him best no word of ours can add to the respect and regard in which he is held.

OCTOR JOSEPH HENRY SAWYER was a graduate of the class of 1865 at Amherst, where he received the A. B. degree. From Amherst he also received his A. M., in 1868, and the degree of L. L. D. in 1902. He is a member of the Phi Beta Kappa (Mass. Sigma) and the Alpha Delta Phi (Amherst Chapter) fraternities.

In 1888, he was ordained clergyman. He has been clected a member of the following associations: Hampshire Association of Congregational Ministers; Connecticut Valley Congregational Club; New England Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools; Headmasters' Association of the United States.

Of national societies, he is a member of the National Geographical Society; the American Academy of Political and Social Science; the American Philological Society; the American Institute of Civics. He is a trustee of the American International College and has been for a number of years Secretary of the Williston Seminary Board of Trustees.

He takes an active interest in local affairs and is President of the Easthampton Public Library Association and a member of the Village Improvement Society.

A kind-hearted, sympathetic, cultured gentleman, one who understands boys thoroughly, and can overlook their faults and shortcomings, a true friend and adviser to all. He is deeply interested in all school affairs and does everything in his power to promote the well-being of the school. Therefore, is it at all surprising that all the boys not only admire him, but also hold him in respectful esteem as they pass into the broader paths of life?

FOUR happy years they have been; four important years, brimming with life, filled to overflowing with enjoyment and profit. In this short period we have laid the foundation on which to build our future lives. Is it any wonder then that we are loth to leave the school that has meant so much to us; the school that has been our temporary but cherished home? Long ago we remember looking cagerly forward to this time. We, worked diligently. to make its coming more triumphant. Yet now that the time has come, we find that the very thought of leaving deprives the occasion of all the glory of having attained that stage in our education that we once deemed so high. We are regretful at leaving the numerous influences that have been of inestimable value to us, and chief among these we deeply regret the loss of the uplifting association with the members of a faculty such as we never expect to find in any college; for nowhere will we meet with instructors more obliging, more friendly, or more efficient. It has been the influence of that highly esteemed body that has carried us safely over paths of duty; all that we have gained in the time spent at Williston we owe mainly to them. It is with a feeling of uncertainty that we set out from this harbor of safety to venture to places of doubt; yet the venture must be made. The lives',that all through the past four years have been closely linked together by common duties and pleasures, common interests and purposes are now to separate, to follow different courses in the battle of life; but we enter into this battle fortified and enriched by four years of training in an excellent school. And many are the pleasant recollections we take with us. Everything connected with our )ife at Williston, from the quaking sensations of facing our first "exams" to that wonderful night of the Senior Prom, will ever live in our memories. We entered with misgivings, we leave with regret and all the intervening time was one long period of happiness. At our leave-taking, the class of 1915 extend as our parting wish "A long and brilliant future to dear old Williston."

I N accordance with the custom in vogue for many years past in Williston, the class of 1915 presents a piece of statuary as a parting gift to the school. The choice made by the class was the irfant Bacchus and the Fawn. The original of this group is in the Naples Museum. The group shows the devotion of the infant Bacchus to his guardian, the Fawn. May the devotion of the class . of 1915 be as strong to Williston as the devotion so beautifully portrayed in this group. ,

I N accordance with the custom of former years, the Senior Prom, called with justifiable pride the most prominent and successful social event of our school year, was held on Friday evening, February nineteenth, in the Town Hall. The ballroom was decorated With the class flags of the present and former Senior classes, and Potted plants were also used, giving a simple but pleasing effect to the whole. The open lattice-work fraternity booths, a unique innovation introduced this year, occupied the various clorners of the hall and were a decided success from an artistic and practical standpoint.

At eight o'clock a concert was given by Atkins' orchestra, followed by the grand march. A programme of twenty-four numbers and two extras was carried out, and at twelve o'clock a light lunch was served. A dancing master was present who, with his *partner, demonstrated some of the prettiest modern dances, adding much to the enjoyment of the evening. The Prom was conceded by all present to be the best held for many years.

Minh, Ditorial

N a cold, bleak day last, Fall, when the wind howled and whistled around comers, rattling shutters that appeared in its path with unusual vehemence, and making most humans instinctively seek the Cheery warmth .of the fireside, there -was fought on battle-scarred Sawyer Field, a combat that would have•made a German charge on a trench seem like nrefe piay. It was the final and deciding struggle between the Middlers and the. Seniors for the supremacy of the school in that great game of the gridiron, football. Inch by inch, and with almost mechanical precision, the Seniors were forced to r.eld ground before the repeated charges of the Middlers' husky line buckers; until at last, when the final whistle blew, and the shadows of the late afternoon had begun to lengthen, they returned to their rooms a disconsolate group. They had met the defeat which was inevitable.

•

But this triumph was only a beginning. Our path has been strewn with victories. In the interclass indoor track meets, which were held during the Winter, the Middlers were easily victorious. The decisive victory which our—basketball team scored over that of the Seniors, left us safely perched on the topmost rung of the ladder as champions of the school.

But while we have been indulging in this seeming rhapsody over our athletes, we must not forget to extol the work of those of our class who have sacrificed all pleasure and all activities in order that they might earn that name for themselve.s that so few bear— scholar. We have many of this type in our class, men who can say Without boastfulness,"I have fought a good fight."

All that has been mentioned refers to the past. Let us look a little toward the future. We are soon to occupy the chairs left vacant by the Seniors. Another year of strife is before us—a year in which we may or may not give heed to the alluring knock of °PPortunity. Shall we acquit ourselves as a body, with glory?— Shall we add one more page of renown to the history of our dear old Alma Mater? It is for us to decide. Let us enter on the new school Year with the determination firmly fixed in our minds to strive for everything worthy of attainment, and to serve as shining examples to the undergraduates of our school. We bid farewell to the year • with mingled joy and regret,—joy in the knowledge that the future Opens up before us full of promises, regret in the thought that many an hour has been lost never to return.—Johnson,'16.

EVERY man in the Junior Middle class should be proud to belong to a group of such noted individuals. Perhaps you Would like to know something of our class, since many of our members will be influential men even after they have left school. Among our prominent members is Morris, our famous artist and track star, who walked all the way from Medford.

Other promising men are. Parks, Shaw and Poole, all of whom are expected to do great things on the cinder path this Spring. Poole, by the way, is famous for his ability in Biology Howe is our football star, while Sample's wonderful work on the basketball floor was a large factor in defeating Dean this year. We expect both Berry and Poole to win positions on the baseball nine this Spring, while Doolittle, in all probability, will be a member of the tennis team.

We are fortunate in having many sharks in our class. Among them is Connery, whose work in French and Biology is little short of marvelous. Both Grange and Wallace are genuine sharks, to whom one subject is as easy as another. Treat, Hines and Bacon are all Latin sharks, while Norton gets high marks in French and Algebra. With men like these, the class of 1917 should stand high in the records of Williston.—Lindsay.

THE Junior class has made a creditable record, both in studies and in athletics. We are called the "Pee Wees" of the school; but we will be heard from in the future.

In athletics, we contributed Costa and Backofen to the varsity football team. We also made a.fair showing in the class basketball games. In baseball we have given Bradshaw to the varsity.

Among the "sharks" of the class, Duncanson, Grozier, Perkins and Gillette have shown marked abilities as historians, while Yarrows is known as the "Daniel Webster" of Hatfield. Bradshaw intends to revise Latin next year. Shaw is very accommodating to Prof. Morse,by handing in short compositions,so as not to over-work him in correcting the papers. Mack has been notified by the Postmaster-General that a private Post Office will be established in town for his benefit.. Jobin, our Maine representative, will lead the Glee Club next year.

This concludes the brief history of the Junior class, which some day is to become famous.---E.

W HEN the call for football candidates was issued shortly after the opening of school last September, more than thirty men I(•spunded, and of this number, only five were veterans. Coach Denman soon moulded this material into a snappy, aggressive team.

The team began the season well, having won three victories before meeting a defeat at the hands of Connecticut "Aggies." In I llis game both teams were scored on for the first time of the season. ; he Cushing game was well played and intensely interesting, Cushing making its one touchdown in the last period.

The team had won five games and lost two when it faced our rivals, Worcester. In this game Williston was badly beaten, but we still hold to Worcester as our dearest rival and we hope to meet them with a stronger team next Fall.

HE record made by the 1915 basketball team is one which will i

Tnot be bettered for some time. Out of a schedule of 11 games, representing the fastest teams from different sections of New England, Williston won 10 and thereby claimed the New England Interscholastic Championship.•

Our first game was with Turners Falls High School, last year's state champions, whom we defeated :18 to 8. C. L. I. was beaten on hr own floor ti9 to 19. Springfield Turnverein, one of the best club teams in this section was trimmed 40 to 24.

The Dartmouth Freshmen, although they had the best team in Years and were about as good as the Varsity, met defeat at the hands a Williston on their own floor by a score of 27 to 28, playing the college rules. The Hudson Players were easily won from, GO to 28. This club came from near Boston with a good record and a string of victories in Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, only to bow before Williston.

. Williston received its first defeat of the season when Dean Academy defeated us by a score of 37 to 21. The Williston team was not familiar with the set of rules under which Dean played, they being neither intercollegiate nor A. A. U. However, she took revenge on her own floor and won from Dean 27 to 14, using college rules, thus closing the season in a blaze of glory for Captain Keating and his men.

Williston was coached to play either set of regular rules—college or A. A. U., being successful with the one or the other.

AFTER the completion of the basketball schedule, having made an enviable record in that game, the interest of the school was centered in the more popular sport, baseball. Although but three of last year's nine returned to school, there was plenty of new material to fill the vacancies, and it soon became evident that Williston was to be represented in baseball by a snappy, agressive team. The team showed its worth by defeating the fast Yale '18 team, Dean AcadenlY, and the Northampton team of the "Three-H" league, and by bolding the Vermont •university team for nine innings, Vermont winning by one run in the tenth. The team met defeat at the hands of Worcester Academy and Springfield Training School Seconds. 011 the whole the season was most successful, much to the credit of Coach Denman, whose untiring efforts has brought Williston to the front in all branches of sport this year.

F the prospects for a successful track season depended on the 1 material on hand at the opening of school, there would indeed have been little hope for a winning team this year, all of last year's point-winners having graduated. But through the inter-class meets held in the Fall term several likely looking candidates were develcped, from whom a good cross country team and a fast relay team were made up in addition to a squad of men for other events. Of the two races run by the cross country team one was lost to Worcester, the other won from M. A. C., '18. The relay team also made a creditable showing.

The team participated in a number of important meets, making an excellent showing in each. On the whole the season was a successful one and high commendation is due to team, captain and coach.

Beginning with last year, Williston now holds its own annual inter-scholasijc meet, thus adding to the interest in the popular Sport.

ATHLETICS

THROUGH the untiring efforts of Coach Denman a new system of inter-class sports was introduced this year during the Winter term. A track meet was held every month in the "gym" and on the board track, and it is due to these meets that some excellent material was discovered for the track team. Four of these meets were held in all, the Middle class winning with the greatest number of points, while H. F. Lewis won the individual cup for the greatest total of points. There were nine events in the meets comprising the 100, 220, 440, 880 and mile, shot put, high and broad jump, and the pole vault. Some excellent records were made, especially in the mile and half mile.

Coach Denman arranged a basketball schedule of 36 games for - the class teams. The games were played on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons and excited much friendly rivalry and enthusiasm. The games were well attended and much interest was shown. The Middlers won from the Seniors by one game, the Seniors having lost two games to the Middlers' one.

The class football teams played in the Fall after the regular schedule was over, the Middlers winning the championship by defeating the Seniors and Junior Middlers.

AbeMONG the many activities of Williston, Adelphi holds her place as well today as she has during any of the sixty-two years since she first entered Williston life. A proud past it is she looks back upon—not without difficulties and not without defeats, but_ ol which her triumphs are by far more numerous than her defeats. The success of our past year can best be judged by the record of our deeds: Chief among these is our victory over our time-honored rival, Gamma Sigma. For the fourth time, successively, we have won the cup and we look forward confidently to next year when the fifth award will make this trophy our permanent possession. Here then—at the foot of the ascent—will each future generation 01 Adelphians be met by the watch-word and challenge of the society--"Perge Sequor."

IN the whirl of school activities, Gamma Sigma held its usual important place this year. As we look back upon the work of the year, we cannot but feel that Gamma Sigma is contributing a hoodly share in the training of Williston men. In the course of the Year, several inexperienced men have developed into able debaters, While a few experienced debaters have become more proficient in the art through taking part in the weekly meetings and in the open and Joint debates.

Although, in the joint debate, the decision was rendered in favor of Adelphi, still the Gamma Sigma team deserves the credit of having given an excellent debate.

The weekly meetings were a source of pleasure and profit to all the members. The dbates were always intresting, the social hours following the debates always enjoyable. The memory of association With Gamma Sigma is one that no member will ever willingly let die.

THE "Willistonian," our weekly school paper, originated from two rival .papers, the "Willistonian" and the "Mirror," published by the two debating societies, Adelphi and Gamma Sigma. At the advice of the Faculty the two societies entered into co-operation and jointly published the "Willistonian." .

•

From the beginning the "Willistonian" was. a success from a literary standpoint, and under the supervision of Prof. Tibbets was developed to its now firm financial basis.

It is through the columns of the "Willistonian" that the activities gain much of their popularity and publicity. The students, realizing this fact, have always lent their hearty support. Comparing favorably with similar publications of other schools, the paper is always interesting and is of great value in training to those who spend their time on its columns.

T171 E Musical Clubs of the year just closed acquitted themselves in a most commendable manner. The music chosen for production tended toward a leaning away from the ordinary light Popular music and was characterized by a standard on a par with the other organizations at Williston.

The school was subject to some severe and, it was felt, undeserved criticism by one who thought the selections too classical, but Williston was upheld by the leading newspapers of Springfield and Northampton. Several unsolicited criticisms of a decidedly favorable character were offered by outsiders well versed in music.

Concerts were given in Southampton and Florence previous to the annual concert given in the Town Hall. The program consisted of fourteen numbers which at every concert were rendered exceedingly well. The numbers rendered by the Glee Club were well received, while the solos by different members of the quartet were particularly well rendered.

The quartet was up to the usual high standard, having a most successful season. The orchestra selections were handled with great Spirit.

Too much praise cannot be given to Prof. Kelley, whose untiring efforts in a large measure were responsible for the grand - results accomplished.

THE Y. M. C. A. is one of our various student activities and embodies an important element in school life. The benefit derived from participation in the work of a religious association can hardly be overestimated and such an organization as our Y. M. C. A. is bound to have a deep and far-reaching influence on the school at large.

This year has been remarkably successful not only in an average attendance considerably above that of last year, but, also in the character of the work accomplished. One "Pow-wow," that entertainment now recognized as a peculiar Williston institution, was given, and the greater part of the school enjoyed the varied program and the Hallowe'en feed.

This year's Cabinet, under the able and enterprising direction of Prof. Wordsworth, have striven to place before the students of Williston Seminary, something worthy of their interest and attention. If the Cabinet have succeeded in this, even in part, it is due to the hearty co-operation of the students themselves.

THAT the associations of friendship and good-will, which are formed and fostered in Williston, continue in after life is ieadily seen by a glance over the records of the clubs at various colleges and universities and the list of alumni associations. Clubs have been formed at Yale, the University of Pennsylvania, Colgate and Renssalaer, while others will soon be added. Williston indeed has reason to be proud of her long list of loyal alumni.

Williston (flub at Vale

This club, which is entering its sixth decade-, is by far the largest and oldest of Williston college clubs. Informal smokers serve to bring all the members together and to keep them in touch with all branches of activities in their Alma Mater while a member of the faculty is annually invited to attend a meeting and relate occurrences of interest to all.

This club, which was formed in February, 1912, is still prospering both in interest and members. Many new men entered from Williston last year and the bond of fellowship and good-will which exists among the members is sufficient to show that Williston and its associations are never forgotten.

THE Yale Club at Williston, under the leadership of Professor Granniss and by the hearty co-operation of the members, has passed through its third year, in a highly successful manner.

At the monthly meetings, the members get a knowledge of Yale life through lectures and stereopticon views.

The Yale Club is fast growing into a very strong school organization. We predict a long period of usefulness for the Club in bringing together the men of Williston intending to enter Yale.

Wrillen for Me Semi-Cenlennial in 1891 by living Bruce, class of 1878 (Air: Austria)

God preserve our Alma Mater Williston, forever more; In the sunshine of Thy favor, Guard her, keep her, we implore. Crown her still with strength and honor By thy grace renew her youth; In the light that never faileth Lead her on from truth to truth.

May her foster children ever Loyal service yield to Thee; Minding still her ancient watchword, Christo et Ecclesiae. That, where'er our warfare lead us, Though the battle bear us down, And we win no wreaths of laurel, 'Hers may be the victor's crown.

Here today upon her altars We present our sacrifice; Though tomorrow widely sundered, Still may this our prayer arise. God preserve our Alma Mater, Williston, forever more; In the sunshine of Thy favor, Guard her, keep her, we implore.

Matthiessen (impatiently)--"Oh, you can't wipe that up with a cloth, use your brains!" (pretty spongy).

Weinberg—"I spoke to Dragon about that Latin sentence." Milbury—"I suppose he gave you some idiotic advice." Weinberg—"Yes, he told me to see you about it."

In the mid-term exams, some brilliant buck translated the Latin sentence which translated reads: Caesar pitched his camp in the territory of the enemy,—"Caesar built a cabin for his entire army."

Prof. Buffum (in chapel)—"I saw a list of delinquents posted in the corridor this morning, and the one who made the list must have known what he was about. The first name on the list was Doo-little and the last, Win-slow."

The following was handed in on an American History exam: "John Quinces was the seventh president, a rough looking farmer with long hair and calf boots."

Charles Frederick Duncanson, a youth from the field part of West Brookfield, sauntered into the principal's office one morning, tossed his hat upon the table, dropped himself into a chair, and addressed the principal in his most familiar tone, as follows—"Well, Dr. Sawyer, how are you?"

Dr. Sawyer—"I'm feeling pretty good, Duncanson, how are you?"

Duncanson—"Oh! I'm all right."

Dr. Sawyer—"Well, Duncanson, what is on your mind ?"

He—"Well, what's the difference?"

THE WILLISTON LOG

THE STORY OF A KRUPP GUN.

Late in the Winter term some ingenious chap in South Hall who had a dream one night and thought he was a German, started in to make a Krupp gun. After discovering a few devices in gunmaking, which would cause the Germans themselves to sit up and take notice, he proceeded to give the gun a tryout. The confusion which followed can well be imagined. We will not go into the details of what followed, but it is needless to say that the peaceful inmates of old South Hall (and they are all peaceful), have good cause to remember one eventful night.

UNSOLVED MYSTERIES.

1. Who made the gun?

2. Why didn't Hitchy put out his light?

Richardson—"Want to hear a hair-raising story, 'Hitchy?'"

Hitchcock—"Tell it to Sweeney." (There's a reason.)

Horan—"I've worn out my sneaks sneaking out after the study bell."

Prof. Cook (in Physics)—"O'Brien, what is a magic lantern?"

O'Brien—"A magic lantern is a piece of apparatus in which an illuminated piece of lime throws rays of light through a condescending lens."

Leary (to ,Lind)—"Say, Oscar, why do they call the Lehigh monthly book the 'Burr?'"

Lind—"I suppose because it's full of chestnuts."

Herzog (to Jobin, who was decorating the table with his feet)— "Take your paddles off the table, Jobin, they're so big I can't see your face over them."

Jobin—"I can easily look over them and see your nose."

Doolittle—"If I win that hat, I can buy a straw bet."

Page one hundred and eleven

Dahlstrom had just given Duncanson a lecture about something Hart was guilty of.

Duncanson—"All right, Harry; I'll take it to heart." (Hart.)

One of the speakers for the negative in the open debate (Immigration question) began his rebuttal in this way: "Ladies and Gentlemen, you have heard these ignorant immigrants—" (He was not, however, referring to the affirmative.)

Prof. Cook (in Physics)—"Why is the pressure of the air not sufficient to crush you ?"

Horan—"I'm solid."

Voice from the rear—"Yes; solid ivory."

Marinus (pointing to Matthiessen's bus, which was half way onto the sidewalk)—"Say 'Red,' how did your car get up there?" "M"—"Oh, I went to crank it up and it flew off the handle."

Morris—"Say, lend me your white trousers, will you,'Red?'" Sullivan—"Sure, but what's got into you to ask permission?" Morris--"I can't find them."

Hart—"That clock is fast, isn't it?" Canavan—"I should say so; it's nailed to the walk." Pug(' hitndreq and twine
