No Seniors are on the team so next
years nine promises to be even better
than this years squad. Only one
member is ineligible to play next year
due to scholastic standing.
Girls athletics have also occupied
an important part in the activities of
the institution. The girls are the
champions Of Cape May County in
basketball and have excellent pros
poets for next year, as only two are
lost by graduation. There seems to
be no interest among the girls for
track and field sports, but it is prob
able that a squad will be formed next
spring. In debating the Juniors were
victors over the Seniors and the
Sophomores were the victors over the
Freshmen in the interclass debates.
The varsity team lost to Woodbine in
the Rutgers Interscholastic Debate by
the score of 2 to 1, but hope to win
next year under the coaching of Prin-
cipal Myers,
Two large entertainments were
given during the year in order to raise
funds for the athletic association and
the Seniors Washington trip. Miss
Gaskill coached an operetta which
was a great success, and Miss Grove
directed the Senior Play, which was
one of the finest. in the history of the
school. Miss Gaskill was also respon-
sible for the formation of an orches-
ira of fifteen pieces. For the first time
a school orchestra played daily at the
morning exercises. The orchestra
was ready for all entertainments and
furnished music for all of the school
dances after the basketball games.
Too much credit cannot be accorded
Miss Gaskill for her work.
The English Contest, a county event,
was won by Miss Margaret Sheppard,
a student of wildwood High School,
on Saturday, May 9Th. The theme on
which Miss Sheppard wrote was "How
to Pack a Lunch for a Picnic"

PUBLIC SCHOOL AGRICULTURE
FUNCTIONS

Do boys studying agriculture in the
public schools of New Jersey learn to
become better farmers? Remarks of
the pupils as reported recently to the
State Department of Public Instruc-
ton from a few agricultural teachers
indicate that the boys are getting the
proper point of view about practical
farming and their school work. This
means education of the highest type.
Here are the remarks:
"I am anxious to learn how to test
milk and do some COW testing for /
know dads herd are half slackers."
81 saw a neighbor trying to prune
apple trees with an x and I gave
him a better method"
"Since the creamery people discov-
cred l was testing COWS in our herd,
our test as reported by them has taken
a sudden rise"
81 was always told that there was
no money in feeding hogs, but I know
better now"
81 would not go to high school were
it not for the agricultural course"
at pays big returns to select seed
corn in the field; also to test it before
planting. Dad is now convinced since
1 proved it to him"
"The agricultural course gives a
fellow just what he needs to know on
a farm"
81 like to attend classes in voca-
tional agriculture, because the in
struction is worth while"
81 got my start in peach growing
from my agricultural teacher" (From
a successful peach grower.)
81 had some idea of how fruit trees
should be pruned after our discussion
of the subject in the class, but since
the class really pruned the trees on
my project 1 know how to prune
them"
81 enjoy hours of study on the sub
ject of poultry since I started in the
chicken business as this years pro-
ject."
people must think I am an expert
poultryman from the number and ma
ture of the questions they ask me
about chickens"
81 never realized before that there
could be so many interesting things
in connection with plant life" (By a
boy from the city,
agriculture is one subject | can
see has some real value"
Father says if I keep on showing
the same interest in the farm as l
have done since starting to take the
course il agriculture he will turn the
farm over to me when I am through
with high school"

ELMER TAYLOR WINS HIGH
HONOR IN MUSIC

Elmer Taylor, 112 East Oak avenue,
is the second of Miss Carey's pupils
to take the Elementary Examination
of the Progressive Series of Piano
Lessons, under the National Board of
Examiners. Mr.. Taylor's examination
graded 100 points. He received with
his certificate of piano proficiency a
letter of congratulation from the Art
Publication Society saying, THAT not
often are 100 points made in these
Normal Examinations and they appre-
ciate the excellent work which mer-
tied this high grade" These exami-
nations are being taken by pupils
from Conservatives and colleges as
we'll as private teachers throughout
the country. We are proud of u two
Wildwood boys who have distinguish
ed themselves by such high grades.

SPORTING OUTLOOK is GOOD

Sport fans are already enthusiastic
over the baseball outlook for the COM
ing season. Wildwood will not only
have a team that can really play the
game, but the new field will be fin
ished for the first contest. The new
field will have a grandstand and
bleachers with a seating capacity of
300, and the diamond will be one
of the best in New Jersey with it's
grass infield and cinder outfield.
Many of the players who were on
last years squad will return and there
will be many new faces who have es-
Unable regulations in professional
ranks. 1t is possible that college lads
who have gained recognition in the
intercollegiate world will be given a
tryout with the local club. Games
have already been scheduled with
Vineland, Millville, and Bridgeton,
three aggregations that always draw
big crowds. When either of these

WILDWOOD HIGH HAS SUCCESS.
Full YEAR

With the closing of school the high
school students, their parents and
friends are wont to look back at the
many successes and attachments in
school activities during the year. 1t
is the students period of retrospect
ton, the time when they can relax and
feel that their work is well done.
Victory is not the only thing that
brings success, and the fact that Wild
wood High School oftimes was de-
feated is not an indication that the
year was not a successful one. More
boys and girls contested for positions
on the various teams than ever before
and received good training that helped
to build their minds and bodies and
give them the American spirit of de-
termination and fair play. The stu
dents have been willing to cooperate
with the faculty in every phase of
school activity, and the teachers have
extended their t~ireless efforts and
ceaseless energies 70 rthe betterment
and the promotion Of a greater inter
est in school life by their students.
Wildwood High School has been a
credit to the city. The students and
faculty have caught the spirit that is
restless for improvements and eff
cheney. This is evident from the rec
ords made in the various activities
during the year.
In football the squad that reported
To Coach C,1iaE Oft fho hnninninr Of
the season were nearly all new men,
as the varsity men of the year before
had almost all graduated. The team
was quickly whipped into shape and
played good football, defeating Allan
tic City High Schools second team
and winning one game and losing one
to Middle Township High School. Two
hard fought games were dropped to
Ocean City.
Coach Gulick was more successful
in basketball and developed a team
that was never defeated by any school
the size of Wildwood. Cape May High
School was beaten at Cape May, a feat
that has not been accomplished for
many years. Every member of the
team will be in school for next sea-
sons quintette. The track team es-
tablished an equally good record on
the cinder path under the coaching
of Mr.. Lloyd. Wildwood lost to Mill
vile High School in a dual meet at the
first of the season, but won third hon
ors in the Penn Relays and second
honors in the County Meet. Only Gar
finkle and Heston are lost to the team
through graduation.
The coach of the base ball team is
Principal Myers, who deserves much
credit for his efforts, as he has taken
raw material and developed a team
that is the first to defeat Cape May,
Middle Township and Woodbine in
many years. The Wildwood lads are
in line for the county championship
and if they are successful in winning

to Wildwood by a large number of
supporters. A late train to those
points during July and August will
increase the number of rooters. Man
ager Latimer has also signed con-
tracts with several colored teams, in
Guiding the Bacharach Giants, Cuban
Stars, Brooklyn Royal Giants and the
Norfolk Stars. Rube Oldring's team
which has been beating all of the in

Industrial teams which come to Wild
wood with excursions will also be
given a chance to try their mettle
against the home club.
Baseball will not be the only at
traction, but arrangements will be
made for a large South Jersey track
meet to be held after the completion
of the quarter mile cinder track which
will be made. The tennis courts of
the new field will be another attrac-
ton and undoubtedly at some time
during the season several national
tennis stars will be engaged to play
exhibition matches. Special induce

the Tendler-Barrett fight to have him
