T h e answers are n o w so n u m e r o u s that it

In scholarship, sports, g o v e r n m e n t ,

Perhaps the prcjject which will he r e m e m b e r e d longest, and which, in its o w n
w a y , adds most to the i)restige o f the school, is that o f the library murals.
When

of A l b a n y , and will u n d o u b t e d l y b e c o m e a center o f public interest.

ill the s^rcat outside world, into wiiicli many of your schoolmates are about to go?
In Chicago, a century of i)r()gress is being elaborately celebrated. The President
of this country is making more history by attemi)ting to eliminate the greatest of
the world's evils. The whole world is struggling against conditions partly
brought about by the last great war. The prosj^iects for students graduating this
month are far from encouraging. You, therefore, who are remaining here, consider yourselves very lucky indeed, for the "corner" is gradually being rounded
off l)y time.
Writing his last contribution to the "Criiusoii and Uliitc,'' your editor becomes sentimental and quotes:
"One who never turned his back but marched breast forward
Never doubted clouds would break,
Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph,
Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better,
Sleep to wake.
No, at noonday in the bustle of man's work-time
Greet the unseen with a cheer!
Bid him forward, breast and back as eitlier should be,
'Strive and thrive!' cry 'Speed — fight on, fare ever
There as here !' "
F. G.
CLASS SONG
Here's to you, Milne.
l£ver loyal and true.
.Always striving onward
With your hopes in view.
Thy spirit leads us on
Through the happy years—
I'ringing fame and glory
T o all which we hold dear.
1 lere's to you, Milne,
Marching through the years—
l)ringing back fond memories
Of our joys and fears.
Here's to the happy hours
Spent in work and play;
Here's to our Alma Mater
Milne High for aye.

T o the Junior Class we leave a record of achievements that may i^ossibly be
equalled but will never be sur])assed.
T o the Sojihomores we leave Frances T>ates' quiet dignity to be distributed
equally among them and this is to be judiciously emi)loyed by them during their
study ])eriods.
W e leave the Junior High hoiking that some day they will grow up and become regular men and women.
The residue of our estate real and imaginary, consisting of the "respect,"
"scholastic ability," "best wishes." etc., of our class, we leave to Professor Sayles
and the faculty of Milne High School to be held in trust by them forever. The
interest accruing from this to be used at such times when "classrooms are noisy,
classwork is poor, and class sj^jirits low," to sustain their morale and restore their
faith in human nature.
Lastly we hereby apjioint. King Kong, Graycie Allan and Alexander Idirottlebottom, executors of this our last will and testament feeling that with such a mighty
combination of intellects the will can scarcely be carried out and the estate will go
to the lawyers.
In witness whereof. I hereunto subscribed our name on the ITjth day of June
1933.

However thankless, dtill and hard.

Is helping all the lime to build
.\nd shape your mind for greater things.

Needs also that great strength
Which leads us on.
And so together,

May lead the world in i)eace and right.

BASEBALL
The Milne hasehall team has completed a very successful season. The team,
made u]) entirely of new material, wilii the excejjtion of the captain, .•\ll)ert MayI)err}-, and Richard Thom])son, succeeded in winning four games and losing onlv
two. There is one more game to l^lay.
The season started off with a hang. Playing a strong Troy County Day team,
Mayl)erry gave the ()i)p()nents three hits and led his team to a 6-0 victory.
The next game was with Moliawk Country Day School at Schenectady.
Milne came out on the right end of a 12-6 .score. luKvin Sickler i)itche(l this gan'ie
hut was relieved hy Case. P.latner and Mayherry led ihe Milne attack \vilh
three hits.
Milne next journeyed to Watervliet and met her first defeat of the sea.son.
The pitchers were wild and a number of errors for the Crimson and White made
the .score stand 15-0 in favor of the opponents.

In order to attone for her l)catin,^- of the week l)efore. ]\rilne, playing the
Industrial High School at Ridgefield Park, smothered the op])onents with a
barrage of hits. The final score was 7-1 and the team was ne\'er behind. Captain
Alayherry held the opposing batters to four hits.
Milne then took Averill Park into cam]). Playing on a poor diamond in a
strong wind, both teams were seriously handica])])e(l and there were many errors.
AFayberry ]Mtched for Milne and, although a little wild, tightened up in the i)inches
to give us a 12-6 victory.
The last game played before this magazine went to press was with Troy
County Day. Ca]:)tain Alayberry was injured and unable to j^lay. J^^d Case i)itche(l
and, although he held Troy to a few hits, the fielding was jwor and Troy was able
to score runs. Sickler relieved Case in the third inning and Robert Kuhn i)itched
the last inning. I'roy came back from a i)revious defeat to win by a 20-7 score.
Larry Wells of Troy hurled a great game and deserves the most credit for the
victory.
The last game of the season will be with Industrial High School, and, if Milne
plays up to its usual standard, it should be a victory for the Crimson and White.
1^he team wishes to thank Osmer P)ro()ks. star jiitcher of State College, for
his excellent coaching and good fellowship.
P)urgess l)e Heus was manager this year and of him Coach P)aker said "he is
the best baseball manager that ^^Tilne has ever had."
The lineu]) was as follows:

TENNIS
This year Milne has entered a new phase of athletics. .\ tennis team has been
oflicially recognized by the Student and Athletic Councils. Tennis is to be placed
in the class of minor si)orts as was the golf team last year.
This year's team is made up of William R)latner, William Tarbox, Kendall
Cetman, Frederick Dearstyne, b^rwin .Ste\'enson, and R()])ert Stutz. William Tarbox has been elected manager, but there is no captain as yet.
The onlv match to date was agamst l)elmar I ligh .School. Plavmg on the
Delmar courts, which were (|uite rough, and because of unorganized ratings, the
Milne team went down in a hard fight.
Credit is due to Carl Tarbox, last year's captain of the State CoUege tennis
team, for his excellent coaching and good advice which he has given to this year';,
team.

Alumni Notes
AFay 15, 1933
DEAR MILNITRS,
Xcver haviii!^- written an alumni letter before, I'm not quite sure of the i)roceclure. Writing- this is something like writing an obituary; it seems to sever all
connections with the old Milne days. Humj^h, that beginning sounds too much
like a sob story; I'll have to stop that.
I saw jayne lUickley and Mildred Grover today. They're full-fledged State
frosh now, and they're enjoying it. too. Dorothy Chalker joined our little luncheon
party in the P)()ulevard today. She is in ^NTildred Elley School now, a schoolmate
of Margaret Crouse and Ruth McMahon. What with taking a V. (J. class in
Albany High and college classes in Xew l-^ra, I'm not very sure of my classification; something of a "mongrel" student, 1 guess.
Once in awhile a gang of us, all Milne grads, get together and talk over the
good old ATilne days. W e really do entertain very ])leasant memories of it. just
as you will when you are grads.
1 could reminisce for ages about Alilne days but I hardly think you would be
interested in such sentimentalities.
I leres luck to you in all the things you undertake in Milne, for your success
there will help vou in vour work later.

"'rheinisloclcs said that a iium's discourst' was like to a rich IV'rsian carpcl.
llu> hoautiful fiiiures aiul patterns of which can he shown only hy spreading- and
extendini^- it out ; when it is contracted and folded up. they are obscured and lost."
So too. is life. 'Phrout^hout the years of our existence we seek heauty in
nature and life. P)eauty is like a carpet, it is revealed in all its wondrous form
when our eyes are open and eaijer; it is folded up when our moods are adx'erse.
Vicauty has heen the life theme of many threat men. l-iyron, Keats. Wordsworth all souj^ht comfort and release in heauty. (ireat artists too. have stretched
forth their arms to embrace its i^lory. lUit someone has said " I t is throui^h Art
and through Art only that we realize our perfections: it is through Art only that
we can shield ourselves from the sordid perils of actual existence."
How trui'
this can he! Is it not throus^h Art that we seek that presence of heauty? There
is something" sacred in heautv. There is something' which lingers long a f t e r the
heauty has ceased to he. l-)Ut often it gives us jiain to remember joys when we
are sad. Dante in his "Canto I'^ifth" write.s—
" X o greater grief than to remember
()f joy when misery is al hand."
days
.Man should seek the real, inspiring- beauty, for the world changes da)' by
day. W e also change. W e forget the hai)penings of yesterday in our eagerness
to face tomorrow. When we are weary of the common, routine life, let us not
forget that we Ihid beauty where we will, and that our h\es are what we maki*

PKAYEKS
In every man there is an innate desire for a being greater than himself to
whom he can ai)peal for help, comfort, or merely fellowship. T h e usual method
of communication with this being", or (lod. as we have named him. is through
prayer.
Prayer may be an emotional outburst, an habitual nuuMnuring of words, or an
earnest message. " ( ) (lod, save m e ! " implores the despairing" sinner, who .sees
his doom approaching. " T h e Tires of hell are ready to destroy you unless you
repent," cries the dramatic and enthusiastic speaker while the crowd groans and
cries in unison. O f what avail are such prayers which will be f()rg"otten in an
hour of a day?
P.ruce l')arton in his book " T h e Man Xobody K n o w s " wrote that the greaU'st
writings were short and concise, and that prayers should be the same,
hlverything that a man might need to say to God. Jesus put in thirty-four words. Thereis nothing" dramatic or emotional in the " L o r d s Prayer," and yei it fulfdls all our
needs for daily li\'ing and contact with others.

A LESSON FOK T H E D A Y
"ft is lo hope thoiKjJi hope is lost"—Mrs.
Barbauld
Inir out oil the l)arren road a lone iit^ure i)ushe(l mechanically ai^ainst the
wind. It huddled within itself, while swayinj^' from .side to side, rhythmically with
each blast which swept across the sombre fields. A s he came u])(jn us. we realized
that we were watching- a very old man.
Uneven white hair projected in forlorn shocks between his tattered cap and
ui)turned collar. His small hard eyes always remained concentrated on some unseen object ahead, and his white. chai)pe(l lips seemed absolutely expressionless.
()ne word could discribe him—hoi)eless. WHiere was he going ? What would he
do when night came and the still air became even more piercing ? He brought
before our minds visions of countless others in the same condition, some groping'
frantically at every fragment of life, others too weary of false promise to offer
any resistance.
The whole world needs inspiration and cheering.
Merely pretense will not
suftu'e, for she needs a warm, living ideal which will give her courage to work,
"like strength is felt from ho])e and despair."—Poj^e.
Marian Shultes, '33

MY T W O DH EEKENT FillENDS
T w o t)f my friends, j a y n e and IHorence. are as dilTerent as black and white;
yet they are both j^ood friends, h'lorence expects in a friend a follower, to whom
she can s^ive her friendship and with whom she can share some of her i^ood times.
Nevertheless, she never gives me the satisfaction of knowing that she thinks 1
am a good pal; she is always the leader. In contrast to this Jayne both expects
and wants to be led. not too forcibly or too entirely, but still led. She has different
ideas on various subjects yet she never forces them o n me. bdorence expects a
friendshi]) like that of David and Jonathon, with me doing the "friendliness" for
both. Jayne believes in half-and-half friendship. 1 have a good time with IHorence, a better time with Jayne. and yet struggle madly to kee]) Florence's friendship. W h y so? Perhai)s i)hil()sopiiy and psychology would exi)lain it.

HOMEWORK
Do you like homework ?
Well, neither do 1,
A n d I say to myself
With a long, drawn sigh
" H o w much better that book
Would look on a shelf!
What fun if some good-natured elf
Would read and write and figure for me!
Then all my evening would be free
T o listen to the radio or read a good hook.
O r curl myself u]) in a comfortable nook."
But 1 find I am dreaming.

That elf has not come.
So I'll get to work and get it all done.

~
Oh. the sailor's life is the life for me,
With the stiff breeze a-blowing me o'er the sea.
A n d the canvas' white stretch
A n d the masts' creaking song
That come to me as I'm sailing along;
A n d the swirling white foam
And the flying white spray
A n d the far-reaching comber that snatches away
Anything that's been left to clutter the deck.
A n d it soaks you completely from vour heels to your neck;
But there's nothing quite like the wild life at sea;
So the sailor's life is the life for me.

MY FIFTH HOKSEBACK KIDE
M y name is Burgoyne. I am a horse at T r o o p B. 1 had a sore foot one day
and did not want to be ridden, 'i'hree o'clock came.
I was led out into the
corral. /\ trembling boy was put on me and I started around in line. I tested him.
He could not steer me very well so T went where I wanted to.
H e finally began to ]nill on my mouth. I started going at a canter. Soon his
weight was not on me.
T was caught by the leader and the boy got on me again. 1 tried the same
thing again. This time he did not go off.
I was getting i)eeved. I threw my head up and kicked out. Then I put my
head down. T h e boy ])arted from me again.
Next time, when he got on he was shaking, he was so scared.
I started off at a fast trot this time. Then 1 broke into a canter. H e seemed
to be sticking on c|uite well. T stop]K'd dead. 1 saw the boy Hying through the
air and hit the ground.
He did not ride me again. Another boy got on me. 1 tried to throw him but
could not. He was very considerate of my sore foot. \Vc had some s])lendid
canters and one galloj) until the end of the ride came.
P)Oth he and the boy that 1 threw gave me six lumps of sugar.
T was satisfied. I had thrown a boy three times and received a dozen lumjjs
of sugar for doing it, or so I thought.

T H E OCEAN
salty breeze blows across a huge expanse of blue-green water. T h e water
is smashed into while foam as it breaks on the reefs, and rocky shores. T h e sky
is dark, and far off across the water a i)uff of white smoke lingers above the
horizon. A storm is brewing, and a huge sea gull hovers over the yellow sand
as if looking for shelter. This is a glimpse of the ocean.

Have you any pots to mend?
Some people use their brains to think
While we use our hands to tink.

In this manner we earn our bread

'"J'omorrow night, while Dunk's asleep.
Jus, sneak up to his bed,

'Cause he t'ought all along dat Snips
Would try, but still would miss.

Dat he would be de chief.
He'd take Snips for a one-way ride.
By gosh! he'd kill de t'ief!
