Due to lack of space and time, we have been compelled to leave out many interesting, though minor events of the year, yet we hope that you will nevertheless read with great pleasure the contents of this,

HEN Old Williston closes her doors at the end of her 82nd year of achievement, one more class, that of '23, will go forth with the knowledge it has gained under her tutelage.
Proud indeed may Williston be of her long list of honored sons, and proud indeed may her sons be of the institution which has stood the test of time, and is today forging ahead under the able guidance of her conscientious and loyal faculty.
Let us hope that we of '23 shall measure up to those classes which have gone before; and above all, let us maintain a high standard of character, that will do credit both to ourselves and to Williston.
If we always strive for the best, we shall surely attain future success; and, as time goes on, we shall always feel that in the battles of life, honor and virtue will ever emerge victorious.
The class of '23 has all reason to be proud of its achievements in all departments of school activities. The high standard for scholarship has been upheld by Zavorski, Zawacki, Merian, Lincoln and Galbraith.
On the gridiron we were well represented by Capt. Strong, Bouteiller, E. Sullivan, Pike, and Courtney.
The cross-country runners from the Senior Class were: Crandell, Lincoln, and Woodbury. Again we see Strong, Bouteiller, and Courtney in the basketball lineup. On the hockey team we have Galanie, Galbraith, and Woodbury. On the track squad, Clark, Courtney, and Lincoln. On the baseball diamond, Bouteiller and Crandell.
Outside of Athletics, we had members on the Student Council, on the "Y" Cabinet, on the Debating Team, in the Musical Club, and in the Dramatic Club,

Senior Promenade
Aisp T sounds rather boastful to say that the 1923 Prom surpassed all 4 others, but so many of the old men, who have seen several Proms, say that it did, that we may readily believe it.
There were three main features that made our Prom so successful. The first was the orchestra, which was Wittstein's from New Haven; the second, the extremely effective decorations of the hall as a whole, and of the Frat booths; the third, the fair sex. Of course everyone believed his partner and his Frat booth the best, so it is no wonder that everyone had a good time.

Middle Class
Ars we stop and think of the three happy years that we have spent at Williston Seminary, we consider with great pleasure the support we have given the school in various ways.
To begin with, Major led the school for two terms in studies, having an average of 96 per cent. A man of this type is greatly appreciated by the school. Holbrook, Lyman, Tarshus, Waddell and S. Williston also showed up well in this line.
In athletics the Middle Class has had the best representation of any class. Scholtz and Russler have been captains of major teams, while Tarshus, Barrett, and R. Foster have been chosen leaders of teams for next year. Barrett, Waddell, Sloan and Mayher played on the football team, while Scholtz, Tarshus, Bateman and Russell Won their letters in basketball. Harris, W. Johnson, R. Foster, I. Strong and Mayher played on the hockey team ; llarris, How-gate and Dade ran on the cross country team. Russler, Scholtz, Kerrigan, Montague, and Harris are on this year's baseball team. As a whole nearly all of the members of the class have taken part in athletics and made good.
In other activities the class has also participated. Scholtz, Russler, Montague and Erickson served in the "V'S Cabinet ; Mack played a leading role in dramatics; Dade, Mack and Mayher were on the Williston-Worcester debating team: Mayher and Mack won prizes in oratory ; Tarshus, Fromen, and Montague had prominent parts in the musical clubs, and Scholtz and Burns served on the Student Council.
In a word we can say that the Middle Class has been prominent in all events throughout the year, and that it has every reason to develop into a record-breaking Senior Class of 1924.

Junior Middlers
"Day by day in every way we are getting better and better."
So say the members of '25 as they are about to complete the second step of their course at Williston..
Great are the feats which these two-year-old sons of Sammy have performed, not only in the class • room, but on the athletic field and in every branch of student activities.
Our number was ably .represented on the gridiron by such stars as H. Lewandowski, Mahoney, O'Hare, Atkinson and Martin; basketball claimed H. Lewandowski as its star in the Worcester game, and "Al" Aiken, with Fraunfelter, as substitutes.
Baseball will undoubtedly welcome into its circle of the chosen few, players in the persons of "Pat" Landers, Bingham, Kilner and Richardson.
Prominent in minor sports there were many followers from our midst, chief among them being "Buddy" .Kilner, captain of cross country, and also holder of the Kennedy medal ; "Al" Aiken, celebrated No. 1 and captain of the tennis team ; "Larry" Lewandowski, captain and star of the track team, and "Sherm" Little, of our undefeated hockey team.
Class honors claim E. Lewandowski, C. Chase, S. Little and B. Mahoney. . Engaged in various school activities we find J. Garvey, A. Aiken, E. Lewandowski, W. Kilner, A. McDermott, C. Chase and many others far too numerous to be listed.
So the class of '25 continues to grow and strengthen to the glory and betterment of old Williston,

Juniors
..'OT many years ago the Juniors were known as the "Pee-Wees," but now they are called "bucks." There is an atmosphere of college life in Williston and that is the buck caps. The buck caps did not lessen Asir the "go-get-'em" ability that many of the juniors have.
Although at the foot of the ladder, we are still able to have representatives in the various sports. Wagner was a sub on the football team. Kalasinsky was on the cross country team and now he is out for the track team. Many of the class are members of the glee club. Szewczyk played a leading part in the three-act play given in the winter term. We look forward to having representatives on all the first teams. Chase and Reardon are promising basketball players.
The class has many belonging to the debating societies. Mostyn took part in the Adelphi-Gamma Sigma Joint Debate.
We hope that the upper classmen will overlook our short-comings, for we are out to do our utmost for Williston. We have but one aim and purpose, and that is to work for the honor of the school.

II E 1922 football season opened with fair prospects for a succcssful year. There were live letter men back, namely : Capt-elect Strong, a good end; Mayher, an excellent tackle; Pike, another good end; Bouteiller, a fast back-field man ; E. K. Sullivan, a husky • guard. Besides these, there were several good men from last year's second team, including Barrett, center, and Wainwright, guard ; and in addition Lewandowski, an excellent punter and strong fullback, who was out most of the 1921 season due to a broken collar bone, reported for practice. Such men as Martin, Waddell, R. Foster, Sloan, Wagner, O'Hare, and Reilly offered much promising new material.
\Villiston began the season well by holding the Springfield College Freshmen, a heavier and more experienced team, to a scoreless tie. Unfortunately, toward the middle of the season, R. Foster, a new man who had been playing an excellent game, was injured and lost to the squad. The team defeated Hopkins School 40-6, after which it seemed to fall into a slump, recovering, however, in time to win a brilliant victory over the Massachusetts Agricultural College Freshmen, two weeks before the Worcester game.
in spite of the fact that we lost more games than we won, the team showed excellent spirit and fight throughout the season, and the opposing team never gained a yard without a bitter struggle. The summary of scores is not so encouraging as it might be, but it does not tell the true story of the fine spirit shown, and work put in, by Coach Denman and the squad.

Basketball
HEN the call for basketball men went out, a large number of candidates reported. Among them were Captain Scholtz, Bouteiller, Strong, and Courtney of last year's squad. Besides these, Bateman, Tarshus, Quinn, and Russell, four promising new men in the school, added greatly to the prospects for a successful season. After a little over a week's drill, Coach Denman cut the squad to fifteen men and Mr. 1Iance took those that were left and started shaping them into a second team.
• Soon after the winter term opened the first team was picked out. Lewandowski, a brilliant guard, was lost to the team for most of the season because of appendicitis, but recovered in time for the Worcester game. The prospects for a successful season still remained brilliant, however.
The season opened January 13th with a victory over the Springfield College Seniors. The first defeat came at the hands of Cushing in a close overtime game, the score being 24 to 2(3. The season was very successful as a whole, with only four defeats out of a hard schedule of 14 games. We were defeated by Worcester in a hard-fought, well-played game, 20 to 23.
Mr. Hance produced a very good second team, which defeated the town team and the Deerfield second team. The varsity scrubs also defeated Deerfield. There were several inter-fraternity games and inter-dormitory games.
The interest in basketball this year was greater than ever before, and every game was well attended. A large part of the school participated in the games.
Coaches Denman and Hance deserve the highest credit for their untiring work,

1922 Baseball
T the beginning of the baseball season the prospects for a successful season seemed doubtful indeed with only Russler back in school from the 1921 team. However, a large amount of good new material was found in school and Coach Denman performed miracles.
The season was a good one in spite of a 3-0 defeat by Worcester. We succeeded in beating our other great rival, Cushing, G-3. The Worcester game was lost by inexcusable errors caused more by nervousness than ignorance. Scholtz, the star pitcher, is the best pitcher Williston has had for a long time. He gave the strong Holy Cross freshmen a shut-out and pitched unbeatable ball against Worcester, but lost the game through lack of support.
The prospects are better for next year with four men, Scholtz, Bouteiller, Russler, and Landers, returning to school.
The second squad practiced daily. They were a great help in giving the regular team practice.

1922 Track
11E1922 track squad was coached by Mr. Moore of Springfield College.
Although a marvelous cross-country team was developed in the fall, the spring track season was not so successful. This was caused partly by lack of material and partly by lack of interest among the fellows in school. The team won the M. A. C. Interscholastie meet, took second in the preparatory school division of the Trinity meet, and was victorious over the Springfield High School of Commerce by the large score of 81-18. The Worcester meet was canceled.
What is needed most is more interest in track. Many good track men go out for other sports, although the track team needs their support more than any other sport in school.
The men who were on the team worked conscientiously with Coach Moore, but lack of material handicapped them throughout the season.
We hope that the school in general will show more interest and give more support to the track team.

Cross-Country Team
Cross-Country
HE 1922 cross country team was coached by Mr. Romeo of Springfield College. At the very outset of the season things did not look very rosy for Williston because of the loss of Capt. Kilner. Only a very small squad turned out for the team, but they worked hard and faithfully, and a great deal of praise is due them. Crandell and Harris were the individual stars of the team and it is due mostly to them that Williston did as well as she did. To these two men were given the two Gerrish medals, to Harris the one for the greatest number of points made for .the team, and to Candell the one for the man showing the greatest improvement during the season.
Perhaps the results of the meets in which the team took part are not very encouraging, but nevertheless the team and Coach Romeo deserve much praise for the hard work that they put in.
The team was composed of the following men: Kilner, Capt., Harris, Crandell, Lincoln, Woodbury, Dade, and Howgate.
Hockey
From the unusually good material that presented itself for hockey early in December, Mr. Galbraith soon developed a hockey team which Williston has every right to 1)2 proud of. Three veterans from last year's varsity reported, namely: Captain Pitcher, Galbraith, and J. Strong, all excellent players. In addition to these three men, there was some very good new material in the shape of Harris, Foster, Woodbury, Mayher, W. Johnson and Little. The team was greatly handicapped in that the ice on the pond was so poor that they could not practice there after the Christmas holidays, and so they got little or no practice before the first game. In spite of this handicap, the team succeeded in tying the first game with the Springfield Hockey Club, a team that has not been defeated in years. Of the remaining seven games Williston won six and tied one. Much credit must be given Mr. Galbraith as the coach for the success that this year's 'team achieved, as he gave up a great deal of his time to come down to the rink and build up the team. Harris was the outstanding star and ranked favorably with the best players of New England schools.

1922 Tennis
I I V P)?,72 tennis season after starting out well with victories over 1,rifield Central High School and Holyoke High School, turned out ngrather poorly. With only Capt. F. W. Galbraith 111from the victorious 1921 team, an entirely new team had to be developed. With three members of the 1921 squad, H. C. Harvey, J. Strong and J. West back, and with two new men, A. Aiken and A. Seymour, Mr. Galbraith set to work to develop a team. Aiken proved to be the star and played number one throughout the season.
The schedule was a hard one and the team simply could not seem to win its matches.
The prospects for the 1923 season are fair, with Captain-elect Aiken and J. Strong returning to school.
Tennis as a sport has increased each year in popularity since its introduction. It has reached a high mark, with over sixty fellows out for it this year.

The Student Council
HE student council for 1922-23 has successfully carried on the work and plans of the council formed last year. It has discussed and debated all major and minor matters concerning the school, and decided that in the future there should be no "hazing" whatsoever of new men in school, but that thcse men should be compelled to wear a blue and gold cap to identify them as "Bucks." These caps are to be discarded after the Worcester-\Villiston football game, if we have the victory ; if we bear defeat, they must wear their caps until the end of the fall term.
The council ran several very successful dances in the school gymnasium during the course of the year.

I -1E "Y" at Williston has had a banner year, one of the most successful in its history. The attendance at the meetings, which were held every Sunday during the fall and winter terms in the "Y" room, has been exceptionally good. '
Every student of the school was a member of the "Y" this year, which gave the "Y" a sound financial backing.
The annual Pow-Wow, which was held in the fall tern', was in the hands of the Student Council and the new members of the school. The "Buck Caps" were given out by the president of the Student Council. Bounteous refreshments in the line of cider and doughnuts were supplied by the "Y." Much credit must be given to Mr. Romeo for the success of this Pow-Wow. Besides this, the "Y" has given a supper every term at Payson Church, and to these events the whole school turned out.
The speakers for the Sunday m,etings were from various colleges, faculty members, and business men, including some of the alumni of the school.
Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Lincoln D. Granniss for his faithfulness and untiring efforts in building up the "Y" here at Williston and under whose direction this year's cabinet has been able to carry on its work to the satisfaction of both faculty and students.

Dramatic Club
IOF'I.SOR Howard G. Boardman, who coached last year's Dramatic Club, was reenforced this year by Professor Cobb, a man having already had considerable experience in that line of work. Under this double coaching the club carried on its work with enthusiasm, and preented three plays in the fall term. These plays were "A Girl to Order", "The Traitor", and "French Without a Master"; they were well rendered and offered pkomising material from which to choose the cast for the three-act play given during the winter term. The play chosen was "The Big Idea", in which Stuart Pike, a 'man who had previously starred in the leading feminine part, this time carried off with great success the part of the hero.
Richard Merian as the vivacious college girl and heroine, showed himself to be an excellent impersonator of the modern young girl. Others of the cast were: J. Szewczyk, J. Russel, A. Erickson, T. Marks, j. Foster, and R. Burns in the masculine parts, and W. Mack, E. Lewandowski and A. Goddard in the feminine parts. The entire cast and the coaches in particular deserve to be congratulated on their good work, for "The Big Idea" was the most finished production ever given by the club since its organization in the fall of 1919.
The club will give another entertainment on Commencement night. Besides those mentioned above, the following took part in the fall oneact plays:
Norton Warner, D. Gruber, J. Dabney, J. Fraunfelter, William Mariner, A. Aiken, A. Chase, C. Chase, I. Lyon, R. Reimann, F. Courtney.

The Willistonian
X I)ER an entirely new management, elected for the year, the first 1,-:tie of "The Willistonian" appeared last fall, very soon after the reopening of school. Since then it has made its appearance faithfully every Friday, throughout the school year, and it must be said that this weekly appearance was always impatiently awaited by all. The small paper has been brim full of the doings, happenings, and activities of school life, recorded in an interesting manner, besides being generously sprinkled throughout with bits of humor, picked up everywhere, preference being given to college wit. All in all, the 1922-23 "Willistonian" has been an excellent paper and it has set a high standard and good example for future "Willistonians."

ALTHOUGH this year Adelphi lacked a large active membership, still the few loyal members who attended the meetings put enough zest into the debates and each program was a success. It is to be regretted that the student body does not fully realize the great value of the two debating societies in the school.
In keeping with the purpose of present day debating societies, which is not to develop orators but effective speakers, Adelphi conducted a large number of informal debates. Those who were present at these meetings can testify to the value of this extempore speaking.
Our team met defeat at the hands of the Gamma Sigma team ; however, we gave them a fright that is long to be remembered.

Williston Hymn
(Written for the tienii-Gentenni,it in 1891, by Irring lirtire, '78)
God preserve our Alma Mater Williston, forever more; In the sunshine of thy favor, Guard her, keep her, we implore. Crown her still with strengtlk 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 Ecclesiae. 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.

Sammy, my Sammy, My heart yearns for thee; Yearns for your campus, And your old elm tree. Long may we cherish, In years yet to come, Long may we cherish WILLISTON.

Glory, glory to old Williston, Glory, glory to old Williston, Glory, glory to old Williston, Hurrah for the Gold and the Blue.

Oh! T-Tand me down my bonnet, Oh! Hand me down my shawl, Oh! Hand me down my calico dress I'm going to a calico ball. Oh! First she gave me honey, And then she gave me cake, And then she gave me ginger bread For kissing her at the gate. Oh! As we go marching, When the band begins to P-T.-A-Y, You can hear the people shouting, Williston Sem is out to win today.

RETROSPECT
We entered as meek little "Juniors" Prepared to live and learn, And gazed with awe at the Seniors, Who seemed so strict and stern. Next we returned as Junior Middlers, And felt, oh, very smart; We entered into everything, And gladly did our part. Then we came back as Middlers, Prepared to stand the test; So that the year we'd graduate They'd say our class was best. And then when we were Seniors, Days went so swiftly by It seemed we couldn't bear to leave The blue-gold Williston sky. Four years we wandered happily Through the rooms of W. S. Each class, each room, grew dearer, As the remaining days grew less. We face with fear the future When without its sheltering walls, We must meet alone life's problenTh And answer alone life's calls.
