W e have been represented at all the basketball games by large numbers, and the first girl cheer-leaders that Milne has known were taken from (jur class. Four of our members have helped bring victory to the boys' teams, while the junior girls' team h(jlds the banner over the (jther three classes. A typical junior took part in last year's prize-speaking contest, and has successfully conducted Dramatics club this year. W e are well represented both in the Council and on the lioard, and i^ractically all the members of the class of '31 belong to one of the three s(jcieties. W e must not forget those enjoyable parties given each year by the juniors for the Freshmen antl the Sophomores for the Seniors. When we were Freshmen we were royally entertained by the juniors, and in return for this good time, we gave the Seniors a party during our Sophomore year. The junior class has just completed this year under the following officers: FrcsidcHt l^ici'-Fresident Secretary Treasurer Ser(/eant-at-.lnns William McCord Lorna I)rowne Lola Marbour Flliott I'arkman George Rosbrook And now. as this school year nears a close, we wish the class of '30 all the luck in the world, and we sincerely hope that by next June we shall have completed four as successful years as the i)resent senior class.

A s we look hack on our tirst year during which we struggled as "Freshies" to receive a name, we feel that this year with its accomplishments has been a success. This success is largely due to the work of our capable treasurer, r.etty Chapman, who so successfully rounded up tardy dues. O w i n g to this, our finances prospered, and we found many opportunities to make use of this money. T o the Senior Class we most happily presented $10 to be used for their year book. The Senior-Sophomore i'arty. School i\ecei)tion, Q. T. S. A., Varsity Dance, and basketball games were attended by a large number of our group. This year it is not only the boys who are to be congratulated for their athletic work, but also the girls for their splendid turnouts.

The Milne team, playing its first game, looked a little ragged now and then, but nevertheless delivered the necessary base-hits when they wero needed. The game was halted in the lifth inning by rain. The next week saw our team turn back Albany Academy 4-2. This victory was important inasmuch as Academy had previously defeated Albany High School. Mayberry hurled a great game for us, allowing Academy only three hits. Our next victim was Altamont whom we defeated 1-0. Our team couldn't seem to get going, and was unable to deliver the punch when needed. The next week we engaged Albany Academy in a return game. Our team was in the peak of form and looked very tlifferent from the team that could score but one run against Altamont the week before. A f t e r both teams had gone scoreless for four innings, Milne suddenly came to life in the fifth to score four runs and clinch the game. W e scored our runs on clean, well-])lace(l hits.

T.'s "Moving Up l.)ay" has endowed ye scribe with an amiable frame of mind that not even the fast approaching- I'inals can disparage. Sigma has shown gaiety in the face of appioaching danger by holding its annual outing at Sarat(jga on the past Saturday.

Three hundred years of history in two h o u r s — O n the J j r d day of ^lay in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred thirty, the entire iMilne Iligh School, junior and Senior together, remade history. We rehearsed often and C()mi)lained (not cpiite so o f t e n ) , but now that our pageant is over we are experiencing with jjleasure the warm glow of that oft-mentioned limelight. L'ndoubtedly the pageant was a suc- cess and, according to all reports, will be repeated next year. The "Annual I'rize Speaking Contest" was attended by a larger number of students this year than it has been formerly. John Maker and I lelen Wiltsie carried away the prizes while Ikirgess Garrison and r>etty Lawrence received honorable mention, johnny insists he owes it all to a dream. Milne was represented for the first time at the Model League of Nations held in Chancellor's Mall and given by the Students of Albany Academy for (nrls, Alban)' Academy for IJoys, Albany Migh School. St. Agnes' School, and Milne Migh School. There were twent}--two silent representatives (jf the Countries belonging to the League and four speakers from each school. The speakers rei)resenling Milne were Iwelyn Cable, Australia; Pauline West, first representative of Creece; Knowlton lioyce, China; and William Sharpe, second rejjresentative of Cireece. The meeting was an exact re])roducti()n of tlrj meeting held at Ceneva in 1929 and proved an interesting experience for those who attended. 38 T H E CKIMSON AND WHITI-: DUn BY UUULtl BRAUSTKI1 ItDF, JX 19JS T h i s being- the last issue of "The Crimson and IV/iitc" the K x change E(Htors think it only appropriate to thank all the other schools who cooperated with us in making this department possible.

ALUMNI NOTES State College DKAK MILNITES: 1 suppose you think anyone who was graduated in '27 must be an old fogey, but I don't feet a bit ancient. I'm just as interested in Milne High School affairs now as 1 ever was. Y o u know State College students are all part of our big family and so perhaps that is the reascjn 1 feel like a big sister. O f course Milne High school has grown a great deal since 1 was a student there, but the spirit of the school remains the same. Friendships formed in high school are among the dearest memories I have. A t this graduation time remember to speed the parting seniors with friendship and love. They will appreciate it. W e all do.

May 27, 1930 DEAR MILNITE.S: 1. hurried from Cushing to the postoffice this morning with high hopes of lots of mail. A f t e r pushing my way through the thunderingmob of fellow mail seekers I arrived at my box quite exhausted. 1 had a sinking feeling when 1 found only one thin letter with an unfamiliar handwriting. That feeling sank still farther when 1 read the lirst sentence. "Could you possibly hnd time this week to write a letter for the year book?" It is not that I do not want to write a letter for "The Crimson and White" for 1 reall\' am pleased that 1 was asketl to write 40 T H E CKIMSON A N D VVHITF. one, but it is hard to know which things about Vassar would be most interesting to you. I might go on to tell just how wonderful college is and how glad 1 am that 1 came to Vassar and )'et how hard we have to work. Instead 1 think J shall tell you about a few of the extra-curricular activities. A s the different seasons roll annmd we have every sport with the exception of football and crew. In the fall we have our choice in gym of ring tennis, hockey, lacrosse, swimming, tennis, archery and riding; in the winter we have indoor g y m besides the usual winter sports; in the spring we have baseball, tennis, lacrosse, and track. Since 1 am a creature endowed with particularly long legs, I went out for track ,'ind made the Freshman track team. I"\)r girls who are interested in dramatics, Vassar off'ers an excellent c(nirse in Dramatic Production. T h e students in this class conduct what is known as the b^xperimental Theatre. T h e y i)resent very eff'ective and highly perfected plays which are internationally known. All the stage lighting, scenery and costumes as well as the acting are done by the students. IJefore I came to \'assar the term "daisy chain" meant very little to me. it consists of the twenty-four loveliest girls in the sophomore class, who carry the daisy chain for the seniors, their sister class, at graduation. I wish more girls at Milne were interested in coming to Vassar. If there are any, .1 will be only too glad to answer any questions about it. It is hard to advise you all not to worry about exams when 1 have them staring me in the face, too. 1 do wish you all the best of success in them. 1 wish to send my best regards to Mr. Sayles and the Faculty.
