DEDICATED

TO THE EVERLASTING MEMORY

OF UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL

 
 

It's more than just a building
Where we come to learn each day

I can't explain the feeling,

But at least I'd like to say ~-

Can you wonder why we love it

When each room is like a friend

And the halls will bring back memories
When our high school days shall end?
And, if they call us still, ”the dump, "
We won‘t mind that, I guess,

For the old tin cans are blooming

With the spirit of U.H. S.

HISTORY OF THE MODEL HIGH SCHOOL, FROM THE
1921 MOHIAN

It was September, 1918. There were rumors of a new educational venture, a Model School. It was
to be located on the campus of the University of Kentucky. The venture was under the joint control of
the State University and Professor Cassidy, Superintendent of city schools. Professor Noe furnished the
school, and Professor Cassidy, the students, and they divided on the faculty.

On the opening day of school, Nature had arrayed the campus in honor of the occasion. The leaves
were beginning to turn red and yellow, and the sun flashed back a welcome from the window of the old
Frazee Building. Days of organization followed. It was a memorable year -- a good record in athletics.
There were good times, dances, and ball games —— and then, June!

For the first time there was a Senior Class -- just three members. On June 4 exercises were held for
the three graduats.

MEMORIES

"What are those beautiful ribbons?"
Asked two bright children one day,
As I was looking through a chest
Where all my treasures lay.

"Those ribbons, " I raised them gently
From their yellowed paper case,

"Are more to me than gold or silks
Or all the finest lace. "

“But what are they?" asked the children,
As I gazed fondly and long

Upon those two faded ribbons

That never stood for wrong.

"Why, they are the colors of Model High --
In the land of Heart's Deligh ——

Which stand for all that's loyal and good,
These emblems of purple and white. “

Swiftly the wings of memory flew
With me back to girlhood days
To the things I used to do

When I walked in Model ways.

It's many years since I've been there
But it's just as dear to me

As it was the day I left there

And so it e'er shall be.

In 1921 Model High was under
the sole control of the University.
Great changes had taken place in
the faculty and the student body.

An athletic association was
formed —— In football, the record
was remarkable for a new school.

The graduating class jumped to
21 members from 3, in 1920. There
Were many fine and outstanding
students.

To enter UK, you must pay a
fee of $18. 50. $12. 50 of this is
for tuition, $1 is for medical
treatment, and the remaining $5
goes to payment for admission to
athletic events.

To enter Model High School,
you must pay a fee of $25, re—
ceiving no medical care, and in
addition you must pay to attend
sporting events. We are told that
$5 of our tuition is taken for the
athletic fund of UK. By all moral
and civic laws, I think this is
unfair. "

CLASS OF 1924

Valedictorian of the Senior Class was Leroy Mitchell Miles, now
President of the First National Bank of Lexington, Kentucky.
. an absolute part of the school. He stands for, in
the minds of the whole of University High, all that goes to make
up a real boy. He well merits this opinion for he obtained the honor
of Valedictorian of the Senior Class. "

In the class prophecy —- "Leroy Miles is a construction engineer
and is succeeding wonderfully in his work in South America. "

CLASS OF 1925

"This time we were not so successful in football
because of a lack of experienced and proper
material, but we were represented by the best
basketball team that has been produced at this
school. "

"Due to lack of funds, Coach \Vhite received no
pay from the school for his services, therefore we
take this opportunity to express our sincere appre—
ciation and hope that we will be able to repay him
in some way. “

For the benefit of several of our Lurder —— class—
men who do not seem to know when the proper
moment arrives to remove their hats, we will give
the following information; at the following times,
and on the following occasions the hat should be
removed or lifted as the circumstances indicate:
when mopping the brow; when taking a bath; when
going to bed; when taking up a collection; when
having the hair trimmed; when being shampooed;
and when standing on the head.

Basketball began one of its most suc— n

cessful seasons at University High School
when Jack Curtice was secured as coach
from Transylvania College. He being one
of the outstanding stars of Transylvania,
made a very good team from the material
the school afforded.
The president of the Senior Class was
Andrew Hoover, also editor of U—Hi Lights,
a member of the Debating Team and Dra— Charles Stewart
matics Club. In his poem, "The Passing Lucy Ware
Year, " Hoover wrote, “Stay with me, for
I feel you are slipping away and I would
detain you —— awhile. But you are gone,
and like a wreath of smoke; you glide from
my fingers before I have known you almost. "

"We are in a new building now. Many aew faces fill the halls and crowd the class rooms. New
traffic flows past the windows. The whole school seems new and different. Not only modern equipment
surrounds us, but modern ideas have permeated our broadeneing minds. The freedom and familiarity
of old Model High have given place to the more rigid coolness of the larger University High. "Don't
orations" have taken the place of the more helpful Bible readings. "

The seniors of '32' had the idea to do as many extra—curricular activities and as little of the regular
schedule as possible. They succeeded too. Six were on the football team and five on the basketball
squad. The Hi-Y had twelve senior on its roll, the U—Club had ten more, the Girl Reserves had twelve,
and the U—High staff boasted eight. In keeping up their reputation, as entertainers, the seniors gave a
weiner roast early in the year and initiated Homecoming Day. This class was obviously very active.

undefeated and one of the outstanding teams of Central Kentucky. On the dramatic side "Dulcy, " the
well known comedy was presented on May 4th. The Senior Class left U-High on a sad but busy note.

Steve Banahan, Sammy Huey, etc. etc. There were quite a few "bookworms'I too; Betty Brown,
Ewing Brown, Ben Buckley, and Ellen Marshall. The University High basketball was in spirit 8
Victories. There were eight victories and six defeats. The senior class had a secret formula which
they felt would solve any situation including the end of this history. ”Quote —- too plus one—hall

closer the inevitable victory of right over might. "

CLASS OF 1946

Gerald Griffin, Kent Hollingsworth, Helen Deiss, and Pat Thompson officers of the senior class did a _
fine job. Coach Collier led the basketball team in a splendid battle for the district crown in March. In
the 1946 annual an interesting quite appeared: "Its hard to believe that there‘ll be a senior class at U—
High after we're gone, or even that there'll be a U—High after we're gone, or even that there'll be a
U—High, but a recent poll among faculty members seems to indicate this to be the case. “ If only this
class had known that there would not be a senior class two decades later.
