Foreword LIE Class of 1921, through the Board of Editors, presents this, the twentieth volume of The Log to its readers. Its purpose is to produce an accurate record of the happenings of a single year in the history of Williston. Our aim, as a Board, has been to make the work as complete and accurate as possible and, at the same time, to introduce enough personal interest and individuality to make of it a permanent keepsake rather than a mere table of statistics. We hope we have succeeded in our task and that the event of our labor will prove worthy of the trust which has been vested in us. We now present it to you for your perusal and, we hope, for your approval. It has faults, which we do not deny, but we trust that they are not sufficiently flagrant to condemn the entire work. May the volume give you as much pleasure in the reading as it has given us in publishing.

The Log Review HE book which 1921 leaves behind as a record of its last year in school has been published under considerable handicaps. First the loss of Prof.

Snowden as advisor was a large handicap in itself, and second that the board was composed of fellows who we frankly admit had had practically no experience in publication work.

We, the Board, however, have instituted several new departures in our production which we feel certain will meet with public approval. The first of these is the binding which is linen instead of paper as heretofore.

The new drawings for subjects that never before have had drawings is another new feature. Log Boards in the past have failed, we think, to include in the publication a group of school snapshots which could be made into the most personal and enlightening space of all. Although this year's Board has not been able to obtain a very great number of snapshots, it is their hope that in the years to come this space may be expanded to the satisfaction of the student body. .

Like all preceding Boards we make our initial and final appeara nce with this book. We sincerely hope that it contains an accurate account of the year 1920-1921 at Williston, and that some of our institutions will be considered by future Boards as valuable additions to The Log policy in the future.

wormlit OUR years ago a small and insignificant class entered Williston. To its few members this present year looked far away indeed. Now our goal is in sight, and it is with a feeling of regret that we are leaving the school to which we have become so attached.

What we have accomplished in our short stay at Williston can be fully attested to by our records on the athletic field and in the class room. In football we were represented by Sheldon, Penchoen, Penniman, Green, G. Galbraith, and Robbins. At basketball Sheldon, 4,f O'Loughlin, and Penchoen excelled, while on the diamond we have O'Loughlin, Bennet, Sheldon, George Clark, and Heydt. In every isuutututtuntmluititiivitiennimintit sport we have had strong representations.

But do not think that our activities are confined to athletics alone. No, indeed, you have only to,look in the debating societies and the class rooms to discover the prominence of 1921. In all debates we have our stellar performer, John Mayher, and in the classrooms Lynch, Judd, Wall, and Merian uphold all traditions. The Glee Club, the Y. M. C. A., and the Student Council, all have their representation from the class of 1921.

F

However, if we had no source of help but our own persons, such a record would have been well nigh impossible. It is through the faculty that we have been able to attain our objects at Williston. For their kind and persevering attention we cannot thank them too much. We have tried to show our appreciation of their efforts by hard work, but we realize that it is too early to fully understand the worth of their direction and encouragement. If we attain success in life, it is due, in a large measure, to the intellectual and physical training we have received at Williston.

Senior Prom. Committee

Senior Promenade I N the history of Williston's Proms the year 1921 will ever be memorable.

We are sure that of all preceding Proms "21's" is in the ascendant, and are. dubious whether any future ones can surpass it. Never before was the old Town Hall so artistically and appropriately decorated. The music was excellent. But by far the most attractive feature was the largest gathering of charming young ladies that have ever graced the precincts of the hall at a Williston Prom. Especial praise is due our class treasurer, Mr. Buffum, for his untiring and painstaking efforts, and thoughtfulness in caring for the innumerable details that made our Prom such a great success. j.

"The Eternal Saki from that Bowl has pour'd Millions of Bubbles like us and will pour."

Omar Khayyam..

HE Eternal Said has poured millions of bubbles, mediocre bubbles. . . but only one Middle Class like this which has not only quantity but quality.

The Middle Class, the largest of the four classes at Williston this year, has an enviable record, and has been active in every branch of sports and in every department of the school.

The Middle Class can boast of two new accomplishments. One of its members, Phillip Wainwright, is the first Williston student to be licensed as a wireless operator. Under Wainwright's supervision, the Radio Club has made a creditable showing. Leslie Whitham has written the first serial which has appeared in the Willistonian. It was called "Wilkins of Williston" and it ran serially for twelve weeks.

"Babe" Chartier of the honeyed voice won three W's which entitles him to the honor of being the best all around athlete of the class. The Middle Class was represented in football by Chartier, Jancsy, and Strong; in basketball by Magner, Chartier, and Armitage; in track by D'Wolf, Duncan, Whitham, C. B. Parsons, and Strong; in baseball by Chartier, Lagerstedt, Jancsy, Payne, and Magner.

The Middle Class contributed eight men to the Dramatic Club, including Stuart Pike, the winsome "leading lady ;" four men to the Glee Club and three of these, Nelson, Chartier, and Outterson, are of the school quartet; three men to the Willistonian Board ; for honor men, Joe Ganahl and "Tiny" Kienle, and to various other school activities.

The Middle Class feels confident that it can step into the shoes of the departing seniors and to fill them as successfully as their predecessors.

. AST September the class of '23, armed with high purposes and firm resolutions, started on the second stage of its career at \\Ti I liston. Although our number has since dwindled to the present figures of thirt -live, now at the close of the year, we can look back with pride and satisfaction on our many and varied achievements. As a class we have been ably and plentifully represented in all of the school activities, and we have more than our share of celebrities.

In Athletics we have been extremely well represented. In track our representativesare three of the most reliable men on the team."Jim" M orrow, a wonderful sprinter;"Andy" Sullivan, captain of next year's track team and "Babe" Starrett, the best field-events man on the team. Baseball claims as varsity pitcher one of our number, one Buckley. In football, Russler ably held up our traditions.

Also we have in our midst many so-called "sharks," such specimens as "Joe" Wright and "Red" Galbraith. Then there is our politician and debater "Jim" Morrow, who takes a deep interest in debating as well as in the Scottish clan.

And so it goes, on every team, in every club, in the literary societies, in the Y. M. C. A., our members may be found present carrying on in the old Williston spirit and looking forward to the day when they will become high and mighty seniors.

HE class of 1924 destined to become a prominent class in the history of Williston has already played a prominent part in school in proportion to its average age and size.

Our class has the honorable distinction of having among its number the youngest fellow in the history of the school who has won a letter in Track, Wil!rich Miner who, at fifteen, was a cross country star.

Kilner is also 1924's contribution to the Willistonian board.

A very bright spot in our midst is the number of scholars.

Robert Burns, Richard Merian, John Lyman, and Donald O'Neill, all rankin g high in the class room.

Although our little egg of talent has not yet hatched out, nevertheless in another year a fine all around bird will spring from our little egg, and will wax and grow strong to the glory and advantage of tild Willist on.

The

Williston Log

Football HE members of the 1920 football team hold a record of which they may be very proud. Coach Denman, with only two veterans as a nucleus, developed one of the steadiest teams ever turned out at Williston. Much credit is due to his skillful coaching.

The team started the season by defeating the Worcester Trade School 160. This victory was followed in consecutive order by the downfall of Springfield Y. M. C. A. College Seconds 7-6 and a victory over M. A. C. Freshmen 61-0. The annual game with Cushing, however, was the hardest and keenest fought game of the season, a 7-7 tie resulting. Owing to a high toll of accidents which happened to various members of the team, three games were lost. One to Holy Cross Freshmen 18-0, one to Dean Academy '21-1 and the last game to our old rival Worcester Academy 13-0.

The season on the whole was decidedly successful and much credit should be tendered to the members of the team and Coach Denman.

Baseball WING to the unusual material which presented itself on the diamond in the Spring Term MO, the aspirants soon developed into a team which Williston had a right to be proud of. Of tile fifteen men on the regular squad five were pitchers of good caliber, three were catchers of no" mean ability, while the remainder were well fitted to play in the remaining positions.

Perhaps the unique manner in which the team played throughout the season is due to the singular ability of the individual players, but still much credit is attributable to the fine spirit of the whole squad.

Notwithstanding the fact that the team lost to Y. M. C. A. College Seconds, Yale Freshmen and Holy Cross Seconds, and our rival Worcester Academy, yet twice the flag of victory waved over the indomitable Easthampton town team, a feat unaccomplished by Williston team for many years. Cushing and Dartmouth Freshmen also suffered defeat. In addition to the aforementioned victories Holyoke High School, Y. M. C. A. College Seconds, M. A. C. Freshman, M. A. C. Short Course and Springfield Technical High School were defeated.

Track, 1920-21 ITH the coming of compulsory exercise came expansion of the Track and Cross Country teams. Although the spring track season of 1920 was decidedly weak, proof that a new era in track has set in at Williston was proven by the 1920 Cross Country team.

The 1920 track team participated in but two meets, e.g., the M. A. C. Interscholastic and the Brown University Interscholastic. A creditable showing was made at M. A. C., Williston winning second place. At the Brown meet, however, Williston did not place because of its small representation.

In the fall of 1920 with a special coach for track, a remarkable crosscountry team was developed. Although cross country in past years has not amounted to much, it has, however, certainly proved its right to a place as a major sport this year because of the fine team which represented Williston.

An extremely full schedule was run off victoriously in every case. The first race of the season was with the Springfield Y. M. C. A. College second team and resulted in an overwhelming victory for Williston. The next race was with Wilbraham Academy at Wilbraham. This was also won handily. After this race the team journeyed to Cambridge to run in the Harvard Interscholastic. Here also the merit of the team became apparent for it captured second place, all five men coming in one after the other. The last race of the season was with Worcester Academy at Worcester. 'Williston won this race by the score of 22-23. After this last successful race a challenge was issued to any team in Massachusetts to -dispute Williston's claim to the State chanipionship. As no challenge was offered Williston laid a strong claim to the championship.

The winter track squad next participated in the Springfield Interscholastic meet held at the Springfield Y. M. C. A. College. Here again good training became apparent and Williston won the meet, defeating Suffield School by one-half a point. In this meet remarkable material for the 1921 track showed itself and the outlook for 1921 is extremely bright.

Basketball HE aspect at the beginning of the basketball season 1921 was far from being favorable. Sheldon, of the 1920 first team, and Magner, a substitute, were the only veterans available. Thus from a large squad of unexperienced players a semblance of a team was finally moulded.

However, the team lacked experience and practically the whole half of the season was needed to instruct and mould it into shape. After losing the first eight games the team took a brace and decisively defeated the fast M. I. T. Freshmen.team 40-31. Although the game with Worcester Academy was lost by the small margin of• 26-20, nevertheless the team strengthened and overwhelmed the Milford school 42-21.

A great deal of praise is due to the integrity of Coach Denman and also the fellows who worked so hard to make a representative team.

Hockey HE material which was available for the 1921 Hockey team was very promising in that there were six veterans back at school from the 1920 team. A fine team soon developed but unusual difficulties in the weather impeded the playing of many games. However, two games were played which showed the stellar material of which the team was composed. The first game with Springfield College seconds on the home rink was an overwhelming victory for the Gold and Blue, the score being 5-0. The second and last game was a defeat at the hands of a second team from Amherst College. The first half ended without either side scoring; but in the second half the superior knowledge of the college team became apparent and they scored two goals.

An advance was made this year over last year of one game and we hope that next year Hockey will assume still greater proportions.

The Tennis Team

1920 Tennis HE 1920 Tennis Team was the best tennis team that Williston has ever had. Of the six matches played four were won, one was lost and one tied.

The first match with Springfield College seconds resulted in a 4-2 victory for Williston.

The next two matches with Holyoke High School and Central High School were both won easily 6-0 and 5-1, in consecutive order.

The next match with Northampton Country Club proved more of a struggle and ended in a 3-3 tie.

On June 5 the team journeyed to Worcester and defeated her rival 5 matches to 1. The final match of the season was the only loss, which came at the hands of Northampton Country Club, 5-1.

The team was composed of E. Smith, Captain; A. P. Hartmann, T. E. P. Barbour and C. F. Gilman.

Y. M.C. A.

T HE

Williston Young Men's Christian Association each year is becoming more and more an essential part of school life. The year 1920-1921 has not proved an exception to this rule except in the small number of outside speakers. However, the organization has been very successful in the things which it has executed about school.

A new Y. M. C. A. common room has been obtained and furnished with easy chairs, reading table, lamps and a piano. Williston has long felt a pressing need for just this sort of a room. It is the policy of the Y. M. C. A. as the years go by to increase the furniture and comfort of this room.

In the Fall term a "Pow-Wow" was staged by the Y. M. C. A., which proved very successful. During the evening various speeches and short talks were given and games were played. The fun ended with a diet of cider and doughnuts. In the Winter term a fund of $100 was raised under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. for the Chinese Famine Fund.

Of all the meetings held the majority were exceptionally well attended.

Among the outside speakers were: Professors Arthur Rudman, W. C. McCarty and Campbell of Springfield Y. M. C. A. College, Springfield, Mass., Prof. Leslie G. Burgein of Mt. Holyoke College, South Hadley and Mr. Alfred E. Smith, '83, of New York. Several professors of the school also spoke.

The Y. M. C. A. has had a remarkable year in a way because of the fact that it has established a rock bottom foundation for its organization, and it hopes in the years to come to cultivate its moral and uplifing influence on the school as a whole.

Dramatic Club HE Williston Dramatic Club was founded in September, 1919, by Professor Laurence J. Smith for the promotion of the art of the theatre and the development of self-confidence and imagination thru dramatic expression. Beginning without a penny, in two years the Dramatic Club has, by its own efforts, produced eleven plays, purchased two sets of scenery, and started a bank account. It looks toward the future with hopes of bigger and better things.

"Poor Old Jim," a one-act farce, was the first play produced by the Dramatic Club. Its cast was Oechsner, Mayher, and Whitham. The success of this play gave the club its first impetus.'

"Officer 666" was the first three-act play to be produced by the Dramatic Club .and the end of the Spring Term prevented the Club from accepting out of town engagements. Nelson Judd carried the masculine lead in an admirable manner, while Frederick Oechsner as the "leading lady" delighted the audience with his feminine mannerisms. The comedy honors were divided between Andrew Hartmann as "Officer 666" and Leslie Whitam as "Bateato."

The four one-act plays of the fall term of 1920 were well done, despite the mix-up in the non-arrival of the wigs and the hasty substitutes of those available, making it necessary for Priscilla to appear in curls in "Miles Standish" and Abraham Lincoln to appear in a "bob" in "Toys." Professor Smith's play "Toys" won the honors of the evening.

Harold McGrath's three-act play, "The Man on the Box," was produced before a large and appreciative audience in the Winter Term. Andrew Hartman, as the "man on the box," did some splendid acting and Stuart Pike, as the "lady in the case," was a perfect "lady." The supporting cast deserved great credit.

Two.one-act plays were given in the Spring Term for the benefit of the Alumni.

The Dramatic Club awarded sixteen Triangular Pins in recognition of the work done by the student-actors. The Triangular Pin symbolizes the three viewpoints from which the drama is studied, i.e., the literary, the acting, and the mechanical.

The WTillistonian "T"

Willistonian, our school paper, started this year under a slightly different regime from former years. Instead of dividing the school year into three terms with a change of management each term. The year was divided into halves. For each half there was a different management, and each board made twelve issues of the paper. Mr. Smith has acted as the faculty adviser. In the future when this system becomes thoroughly inaugurated the paper will undoubtably continue the successful progress of years.

The Musical Clubs HE Williston Musical Clubs presented an excellent program on Friday evening, April 15, at the Easthampton Town Hall. The program was composed of selections given by the Glee Club, the Quartet and the Orchestra, interspersed with several solos.

Especially well balanced clubs did away with the necessity of many features, the only one being the rendering of several solos. Humorous songs by the Glee Club received their usual hearty reception, while all selections by the Orchestra showed that its ability and execution were considerably above the normal standard. The Quartet scored an encore with its fine well-balanced harmony and its pleasing rendering of both serious and humorous selections.

The success of the program as a whole was due in no small part to Prof. Johnhis ston who sacrificed much to train the Glee Club, to Donald H. Duffle for time its for Quartet faithful work as leader of the Orchestra and to the whole and effort in making its part a success.

HE Williston Radio Club was organized in the fall term under the direction of Melvin J. Cook, instructor in physics. The school has generou sly granted it the use of the room on the southeast corner of the first floor of Middle Hall. The aerial is on the same building.

The apparatus purchased by the Physics Department for the use of the club includes a first-rate receiving set and a one-kilowatt sending set.

The station has a license from the Department of Commerce with the call number IKBO. The club has met regularly on Tuesday evenings before study hour.

Individually and in groups the members have used the set at other times for their entertainment and instruction.

Much credit is due to Philip Wainwright for his tireless industry and painstaking effort in behalf of this wireless project.

Williston is one of the first among schools to establish a wireless station.

Gamma Sigma AMMA. Sigma, one of the two debating societies at Williston, was founded in 1870 as a rival of Adelphi. Since that time competition for honors in debating has always been keen. The annual joint debate is the main event of the year, and is looked forward to by the members of both societies. This year Adelphi gained the decision over Gamma Sigma. Our aim, next year, will be to reverse that verdict, and we intend to try our hardest.

Now that Williston is to meet Worcester in an annual debate, we can expect an increased interest in the work of the two societies in the future. We hope, to, that through this new interest, debating at Williston will be given the place that it deserves in the school life.

Williston -Worcester Debate ,TE joint debate on April 23, 1921, between Worcester and Williston was a memorable event in the history of both the schools, it being the first time that the age-old rivals had clashed except on the athletic field. The conditions of our first debate were somewhat peculiar, and tested the resources and originality of the contestants. In both schools two teams were chosen, the affirmative remaining home, and the negative going to th.: other school. The question was given to both sets of teams just twenty-six hours before the debate, which was held here and at Worcester simultaneously. The result was most satisfying to both schools. The visiting teams, or the negatives, won by a two to one decision in both debates. A fine precedent has been set, and we hope that similar contests will become annual and important J. M. events in the life of Williston and Worcester.

Williston Hymn Written for the Semi-Centennial in 1891 by Irving Bruce, class of 1878

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 homage yield to Thee ;.

Minding still her ancient watchword, Christo et Ecclesiaa.

That, where'er her warfare lead us, Though the battle bear us down, And we win no wreath 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.
