In science they have a year of General Science, a year of Biology, a year of Physics and a year of Chemistry. Their work in English includes the reading of the classics during each year and the study of American and English litera- ture in the Junior and Senior years, along with a thorough drill in composition and sen- tence structure. Latin is started in the first year by college preparatory students and is continued for four years in the reading of Caesar, Cicero and Virgil, with proper em- phasis on prose composition.

These students are given Bookkeeping and Biology in the sec- ond year, along with History and English. In the third year their work in science is discon- tinued and a two year course in Typewriting and Stenography is substituted. Commercial Law and Business English are the new sub- jects given to them during the fourth year. The General course is open to student: whose special needs are met by electing sub- jects from the College Preparatory, Commer- cial, and Vocational courses. These students must take the required work in English and History and must have sixteen credits for graduation, which is the minimum number for all pupils. Those taking the Vocational Agriculture and Home Economics courses are required :O take English and Social Studies during the four years and may elect other subjects from the College Preparatory and Commercial courses. They must however devote a half day to vocational studies. Agriculture stu- dents in the first year take Poultry, Vegetable and Ornamental Gardening, Farm Mechanics and Related Science. During the second year they study Farm Crops, Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Farm Mechanics. The third year course includes Dairying or Animal Hus- bandry, Fruit Production and Forestry and Farm Mechanics. During the fourth year they have Farm Management and Farm Ac- counts, Rural Sociology, Rural Law, Market- ing and Farm Mechanics. An agricultural project is carried on each year at home by these students, under the supervision and di- rection of the vocational teacher. The vocational subjects studied in the Home Economics course may be classified un- der three divisions-The Home and The Fami- ly: Food, and Clothing. In the first group are included Care and Management of the Home, Selecting, Planning and Furnishing of the House, Child Care and Training, Family Relationships, etc. The course in foods gives instruction in Meal Planning, Selection, Pur- chase, Preparation and Service, along with Food Care, Preservation, Storage and Food Industries. Under the division of Clothing, instruction is given in care, repair, renovating and remodeling of articles and garments, se- lection and purchase of materials, planning and construction of articles and garments, clothing and textile industries. During the past two years the enroll- ment in the Greencastle High School has in- creased from 185 to 269. By all indications it will be larger next year. It is really a community high school, having out of town pupils from Antrim, Washington. Montgom- ery, Guilford and Quincy townships. HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY The High School Library contains about one thousand one hundred books. We can now say we have a real library. We wish to express appreciation to our Board of Directors for enlarging and equip- ping our library. The library is now the room west of the main-room, formerly consisting of the Girls' and Boys' cloakrooms. Three ta- bles, fourteen chairs, and many extra shelves have been added. Our Board of Directors have furnished the following magazines: American Girl, American Magazine, Better Homes and Gar- dens, Boy's Life, Country Gentleman, Gregg Writer, Literary Digest, Musical' America, National Geographic, National' Geographic fNews BJ, Nature Magazine, Parents' Maga- 6 G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT zine, Popular Science Monthly, School Science and Mathematics, and Scholastic. These magazines have been found interesting and very valuable by all of us. This year seventeen non-fiction and forty- three fiction books were added. These were bought with the Library's portion of the fund received from the Curtis Magazine drive and with the assistance of the Board of Directors. In addition to these, several volumes have been donated by friends. A very valuable History of Franklin County by McCauley was presented by Mr. H. A. Grove, Supervising Principal. Lewis and Clark Expedition, by Flaudrau, was presented by Ordean Lohman. a former member of the Class of Thirty-three. Thomas M.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY The second and last attempt at dramatics staged by the Senior Class of 1932, on De- cember 17-18-19, in the Gem Theatre was Climbing Roses , and I am sure they left a lingering perfume in your memory. The synopsis of the flowery comedy by Eugene Hafer is 'as follows: Mrs. Warren, the society leader of Mays- ville has just received the disconcerting news that a family by the name of Rose has just moved into the adjoining house. The family evidently has a reputation of truck farmers. From now on each vie with the other to gain social honors. Maggie and Tim Rose take lessons from a man, Jack Watson, from Ham- ilton, who really is Jack Archer, a famous novelist. Of courst, Jack falls in love with Peggy Rose, their niece. G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 9 To please the Roses, Jack plans to have his friend, Prince Rudolph, of Beringalia, to come. Unfortunately the Prince is detained and Jack hires a passing tourist to take his Instead three Princes arrive and the place. curtain goes down amid confusion. In the beginning of the 3rd act, Mrs. Warren and Joyce Belmont. a snob. are plan- ning to entertain Jack Archer at their home. They think they have it all over the Roses. During the play Priscilla Prentice, an old maid has taken a violent dislike to Jack Watson. She thinks he is the person who jilted her sis- te1'. Jack Watson gets a telegram stating that It's a boy! He is imediately fired from the Rose employ. The Warrens are waiting for Jack Archer to arrive. He goes there. is mistaken for Jack Watson and is kicked out.

My Seniors! our fearful trip is done, Our class has mastered every task, the prize we sought is won: The end is near, music I hear, the people all assembling, While the Senior Class comes marching in, with faces grim and daring.

Now with the Spirit of prophecy Enveloping my soul with mystic powers, I'l' portrait to you a picture Of the FLIiLl19,S distant hours. Exiled in the African wilderness, Benished from human sight, Ycur prcphet was placed in a vision- And the thing: he raw that n'ght, When the veiled future was lifted And the rccks were lent in twain, Was not lawful for him to utter But to you he'll repeat them again. He that hath an ear. let him hear, For I'll tell you of things to c'me- Ot' the boys and girls of thirty-two In their new and future homeg Out on the plains of Alaska Neath the heat of noonday's sun John Keck'er and Paul. homestendlng, Are batching it all alone. Alma and Beulah have gone to assist In hopes of finding some gold, And Junior, a member of Senate, Insiztr, s'3clalism's gocd. tho' oldg Gene, as president, sues Glen Cump For violating personal rights And hiics John Bwvmwn. as lawyer, To defend him in all his fights. Pearl Ungel, with her B. S. degree, Teaches French in Shady Grove high g G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 11 And Arthur, as police, guards traffic The aeroplanes of the northern sky, After this I looked, and, Behold, Charles, a pilot, on trans-Atlantic line, With Roy Angle, his assistant, Is making trips always on time. Through the intensity of my vision The door of a home swung wide- There I saw Bess, wife and mother, With her family by her side: What could be more sweet than that When Katherine and Ruth decided, too, To settle the question, and create A home like Bess's, through and through. I also happened to find myself, In a city of that far-off time In a large office of patients, Where David is working sublime- A doctor, a surgeon, his profession, How greatly he is needed by man, And Margaret Heffner, his help-mate, Is assisting him all she can. Again my spirit was called away To a lofty Cathedral fine, Where strains of sweet music came pealing By Virginia's power divine: And stationed up on the rostrum, Aloft from the rest of mankind. Was Glen Haldeman, the pastor, Preaching by help Divine. After this my mind was carried away To the Court of the World, Supreme, Where Dot and Abbe together worked, -Isn't that a most glorious scene?- Giving divorces to married folk Who, like them, could never agree: Such sights kept entering my open mind And I thought they could never be. When, all at once, I saw with amaze In Hollywood, known of old, Anna Elizabeth, in her characteristic ways. An actress, sturdy and bold: And Helen, too, with fluency of speech, Giving orations from east to west- Preaching and demanding women's rights, They're as capable as men at best. As I beheld this scene, a building, Visited by many and known to be free, William Kline's hospital, was unveiled With a staff of nurses of highest degree: Isabelle Shuman, the Superintendent. Assisted by Florence-the happy two- Gave their best to the Institution, And served there many years through. Lucille and Margaret joined the staif, To serve for the cause of many While Nellie with her angelic voice, In song lends a helping handg Elliott, the inventor, chanced along To meet my sight-how changed things are - Just push the button , 'twas all he said, The invention's improved by far. Once more I gazed to the far-off land- When I saw Lois, an author true, Writing poetry, prose, and essays, And of poems, not a few: And Nora is still going further- A dentist she aims to be: While Thelma is private secretary For the League since thirty-three: And Isabel Henson's a teacher Of Economics in Marion's High, And Dorothy Lenharr, how near me, A hair dresser-do you know why? Africa's permanents are too lasting- She's greatly needed down here With civilization at its highest No savages she need fear. As I beheld this scene and marveled, The veil was drawn over my eyes, Shutting out the Things that are To Be And say, to my great surprise- I could not help but feel The vision I had witnessed Could be otherwise than real. So now, dear friends and classmates 'Twas nothing but a dream That I've been telling, how'er natural And real it to you may seem, But in this curious world of wonders, How often have dreams come true? So, who knows but this, my vision, May be realized by you? -Lois Grove EHOPBEOVS mm-MEM 4 iwuwtww QNENEE 0233302 'awww ECU PHBUSUNQMH 2,55 EEZ ENB gina E22 53555 'saga WQEWENMWW Q23 Wkzwonmxgom UMIEUQE bzmmvm -5505: M3034 HWKFJN gm? yas: HSE iwghgm m1gOQmwEOm 335 EO EEE ELO EE ,LO Esau BSO was Ui-Ov H ERE 651 52,5 WEEE E50 Z2 PSM jo Eaeowl 5 3:20 Hmm HMCQQ Emu :Raw FREE Nzwow 32 3250 wkgwwxc :EU E4 :AEE 6000 SNESWQWMWEE Swag Bok io ZOHHQZHYHMHQ ZOHwmHMA:nH HYEMOPQM 'MEAE Ow OE AVEOUQ Zigi mxmmim ggi SEE wigzwi Wwsm 3:2 WENEDOW Saw EENEHUMZ QEVEEO Q5 Sw OH QED UWWDE 'EE Emmmjm M53-VC ME OH UGO-N wp OH 53250352 has togw H533 -3 GH WHHQE ODWOEQ EOL EU Mangan Enema COMES Ngggm 33 OH M9555 SCSU OH 2253 Ham MEQSUUEE 2525 2:3 OH mich Wg?-EO WSEFS E530 EMG QE QED-na :NF 'EE RATED mmsgg GN Egg, SDEQD UQUCESOO Kmfdmwm ggkrm vwxwp S235 gamma WUWMRQBE QESOCQ Erzwwcyg WEZQ 5:52 m5265022 KEWUEM wwgds dd 350 Zia UMFENBG WMOOA W S WQHAQQ FAQ QEWOMV NANWEM SEQ gsm EEE HOD awe MSE 26 mam Bow!

Curiously this mirror gives forth sounds as well as viewsg and a Voice acts as interpreter of the views. The Hrst scene is that of the Main Room of the High School filled with a group of boys and girls. In the front are gathered a group of studious looking if slightly frightened stu- dents. Silence seems golden although there seems a common bond of union. The Voice informs us that this is '33 entering High School. The reflection of a class room next meets our gaze. The room is crowded with students bent over their desks writing vigorously. Now and then a boy or girl looks vacantly into space, sighs and passes on to the next ques- tion. The Voice in a whisper tells us Frosh finals . As this scene fades another takes its place. Again the main room is shown. This time our gaze wanders to the rear. There a general spirit of hilarity is shown. Words are bandied, jokes are cracked and good will prevails. The Voice informs us mournfully, they are Sophomores-their troubles begin . A moment passes and the mirror presents a lively and noisy scene-a group of frolick- ing picnickers. Every face beams with plea.- sure and the greatest enthusiasm is shown. The Voice informs us that, this is the school picnic at which all the classes are present . Let us now lay away the mirror and once more live in the present. The 'beginning of our present Junior year G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 15 saw the entrance of twenty-four Washington Township High School students who swelled our ranks to a total of seventy-two in the class. The first social event of our Junior year was a weenie roast and roller skating party at Cold Spring Park. The Halloween party and Alumni dance were other important events. Although these were school affairs the Junior class was well represented and a fine time was reported. The most important event of our Junior year was that of our class play. It Hap- pened in April , as indeed it did, was a suc- cess, artistically and financially. It was an important event to us for we had never in the past participated in such an affair. After three years of study we find our- selves on the verge of our Senior year. Only a few of our past pleasures and trials have been shown, yet a clear view of our life, we hope, can be ascertained. As a class we have always been bound together by the strongest class ties and have always worked together. In conclusion we might add that our unanimous verdict is that diligence and industry will over-come all ob- stacles. Howard Long JUNIOR CLASS PLAY OF '33 The Junior play, It Happened In April , was given at the Gem Theatre on April 20th and 21st. The play was directed by Miss Helen B. Unger. The characters were as follows:- Betty Branson, pretty young owner of the Ferndale Store-Peggy Martin. Susie Crundel, Betty's friend and neigh- bor+Iane Homer. Nell Crundel, Susie's fourteen year old sister-Louise Fitz. Mollie Jessop, cook for the Bransons-- Esther Wallech. Evalina Scroggs, homeliest girl in the vil- lage-Dorothy Mellinger. Charles Atkins, a young visitor in Fern- dale-George Mellinger. Randy Stewart-Charlie's friend who sells insurance-Carl Fisher. Jim Pritchett, a village character with nothing to do in particular-John Davison. Jarvis Sneed, the meanest man in the county and president of the Ferndale Bank- Hackett Sollenberger. Betty Branson, the young owner of the Ferndale Grocery Store, is worried because the Norris Store is trying to buy out her store, and, as she refuses to sell, they are sending a representative to force her. Charles Atkins, the representative, is be- ing sent to Ferndale by his father to keep Lim out of mischief and also to keep up the Norris Store. Randy Stewart, an old college chum, arrives with Charlie. These two men are here for the express purpose of being tamed and this is Betty's job because her mother is away on a visit. When Charlie had found that he was doomed to stay in Ferndale for several months, he wrote to Mrs. Branson for the name and address of the loveliest girl in the village. Betty opened the letter and sent him the name Evalina Scroggs, the homeliest girl in the village. Charlie has a very hard time getting rid of Evalina after he sees her. Jarvis Sneed had swindled the Bransons out of S900 and Charlie finds this out and makes Jarvis turn the money over to him. Jar-- vis returns later and announces that Charlie is the representative of the Norris Company. This greatly moves Betty. When Betty leaves, Charlie tells all of them what he intends t-1 do-to put the Branson store on its feet again and put the Norris store off its feet. So he offers Betty S900 for her store and has her sign a contract of sale to the Norris Company, while in reality she is receiving her own mou- ey and making Charles and Randy her busi- ness agents. Betty is ignorant of all this. It turns out that the Ferndale store is doing twice as much business as the Norris Store and Charles has built a factory and dairy to make Mollie's preserves. Then Jar- vis Sneed tries to arrest Charlie for keeping Betty's money but Charles tells Betty all about his plan, and she is delighted that she still owns her store. Charles proposes to Bet- ty and she accepts him. Just at that moment Randy comes in to introduce Susie as his fu- ture wife and even Jim who has been trying for years to win Millie, gets the fever and proposes to Mollie. 1 16 G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT WE HEAR THAT The faculty is considering the use of the thumbscrew in school discipline. Seth Witmer has a pull in English class. Mr. Way is raising a beard. Bob Poper has lock-jaw. Pearl Unger got demerits for inattention. Sam Henninger carries a fire extinguish- er. Miss Fletcher has petitioned the school- board for ten additional waste baskets. John Davison is a regular visitor at Mr. Davison's Dorothy Ryder doesn't weigh 225 pounds as reported. A certain Freshie has given up bicycle riding. Shorty Long is practicing marksmanship. --Howard Long THE FACULTY Mr. Grove-A silent man and silent long, But when aroused most mighty strong. Miss Fletcher-Professor of all languages at once. With fluency she can speak In French or Latin, German and Greek. Mr. Whitmore-No book was ever made that could contain The stores of knowledge in his little brain. Mr. Davison-In mathematics he is greater Than Euclid, Einstein or Erra Pater. Miss Zug-All graces composed in a female form, Makes the boys all rave and the girls all str-rm. Miss Gentzel-Tho snows may o'er her head be flung. Her heart, her heart is young. Mr. Way-Fat and fair and always smiling, A picture that is most beguiling. Miss Unger-Calm and stately in her dignity, A natural leader she seems born to be. Miss Phillippy-Smiling and happy and well content, Her whole small body on duty bent. Miss Durbarow-Revered and loved by all who know her. Mrs. Elliott-When it comes to causing grind, You never find her far behind. -Howard Long THE HOUSE BY THE SEA There is an old house by the edge of the sea With a vine climbing over its doors, Where the soft breeze caresses the lea, And the ocean rolls and roars. There is a small garden behind this old house That is filled with the blossoms of yore, Whose enchanting beauty seems to arouse A yearning to know of their lore. The morning sun in splendor shines Upon each radiant blossom fair, Upon the brook and murmuring pines, As though their solitude to share. The sun-set changes the sands to gold, And the ocean to sparkling wineg As in the tales which the sailors told, When they sail'd the deep-sea b1'ine. The hearth is bright with the fire-light's glow, And the smell of sea-air is keen, Although outside the gale may blow, Inside, it is calm and serene. The ships that pass at night may see A gleam that is cheery and warm, And each wayward heart longs to be At home, with its comfort and charm. -Martha Julia Fletcher THE JUNIOR SHIP Out of the midst of the county, Out of the midst of the town, Came sixty gay young juniors To make records that astound. We came from off the mountains, We came up out of the vales, We went into the Junior Ship , And hurriedly set the sails. We inspected charts and coursesg The most noble way we sought,- The course that was rough and rugged, One that took masterly thought. G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 17 At last, everything was ready, So we pulled the anchor in And were off with a forward bound, Our third voyage to begin. The crew was given its orders Every man was at his post. The ship was gaily saiiing, All bound for the Senior Coast . Out of the River Vacation We hurriedly made our way. Out onto the deeper waters, Out on Vocational Bay . At first everything went smoothly, The Waters were calm and still. The sun was shining brightly With joy our hearts to fill. But lo! the sky became cloudy And the waves began to rise. The wind through our sails was raging. And lightning flashed through the sky. We put our heads down to business, And worked with our might and main To pilot our ship safely through The wind and the blinding rain. This fierce storm will soon be over T'was heard said, among the crew. But still as the days passed onward The cloudy sky darker grew. The storm of knowledge kept raging,-- It whistled and howled. Boo-hoo! Until it had penetrated Our intellect through and through. Three days more, the storm raged fiercly It was testing time on board. Still, we all bore up cheerful, As over the waves we soared. At last! Hurrah! The sun shines through The heavy clouds have parted. In shouts of glee, we all took part. Ah, now we are light hearted. And then by the way of reckning The time as we onward sailed. The weary way was half over, The mid-point we had hailed. Again the sky became cloudy And the waves much higher grew. We looked on with grim defiance, And determined to go through. Did you ask 'bout entertainment? I should have said-my mistake. Well now, will you listen closely? About it I will relate. Surely you've heard of frankfurters 'Bout those good old weenie roasts. With it, to make complications, We had a marshmallow toast. After everyone was sticky I mean their fingers-I do, We played several games of Winkem , Others roller skated too. And Halloween, that skeery time When everything frightens you, We then called on a masquerade. My dear! Oh John, is it you? You frightened me most half to death With that ugly, frightful face. You scared me so that I bursted All the buttons off my lace . Next came good old Thanksgiving Day When all the turkeys were fat. We pulled down the sails, stopped the ship And took time to eat and chat. Turkey's eaten--Vacation's over. Once again we're on the way. Hearts are lighter, things are brighter, Just ahead is Christmas Day. Twenty-fourth of December- 31 Captain says, Vacation's come . Off we go for a little fun. Stop - Think - Why, vacation's done. Weeks and months were passing onwaid, Every one was feeling blue. Just then we received a message- Spring Frolic will soon be due. Thanks to those experienced sailors For thinking of us again. Thanks for their consideration, With gratitude, we remain. 18 G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT We now are on the final cruise. On waves we still are tossing. Our vessel strongly built of steel Within the gale is rocking. The storm of test just now is o'er. Our hearts with joy are leaping. Vacation's come. Our work is done. On Senior Shore we're resting. And to our most noble Pilots , We say with deepest regards, May your lives still be to others What your lives have been to ours. -Dwight L. Grove THE NARCISSUS Have you ever seen this Hower Growing in some shady bower With its straight and slender stalk? Would you ask, if it could talk: Who gave you all that pretty green That makes you look like some fair queen? Who made your stem so slim and straight? Why do you look as though you wait For some strange knight in armor bright, With hair and eyes as dark as night, To come and woo you where you are As brilliant as some distant star '? In stories there are legends old That once the ancient sages told Of this sweet flower of the lea, That make it dearer still to me. Its gold heart nestled in petals white Seems wrapt around in radiant light, To which there's naught I can compare, It must be of some substance rare. Its face uplifted to the sky As though to speak to God on high, It speaks its love in silent prayer, In tones and accents sweet and fair. Off'ring incense as a token Of its praise as yet unspoken To the Lord of life and Love, In His heaven high above. -Martha Julia Fletcher STRIVING FOR THE GOAL As a ship upon the ocean Pushing through the fiercest storm, Likewise we are ever sailing, On some water we are borne. As a ship upon the ocean Plowing on against the tide We must too keep forward striving Or to danger we may ride. As a ship upon the ocean Struck by every plunging wave, We are too preparing for them We have courage to be brave. As a ship upon the ocean Must for others burdens bear, So must we, along 1ife's- pathway, Carry more than just our share. As a ship upon the ocean Sailing on in thickning mist, May we list for warning signals, Out of danger, we insist. As a ship upon the ocean That is near a dangerous shoal May we keep our lives from shipwreck WE ARE STRIVING FOR THE GOAI' --Dwight L. Grove THE STUDENT'S SONG O heartless oppressors of man! O faculties far and wide! It is not the standard that you raise When you crush all sense of pride. Study - study - study, Till the mind is weary with toil, And the wheels buzz about in your head, And you wish you were under the soil. Work - work - work, As prisoners work for a crime Work - work - work, From weary chime to chime. 'Tis this to be a slave To the faculty's call and beck. We dare not waver, we dare not crave, Some mind it must surely wreck. --Howard Long G. H. S.

After returning to school we found that Mid Winter tests were about to take place. Spring came and with it on April 6th the Spring Frolic, which was given by the Alumni Association. Many from our class attended the Spring Frolic and had a very nice time dancing and playing cards.

Thirty-one of us had come up from the Greencastle eighth grade, and forty-nine had come from sur- rounding localities. We were so dumbfound- ed at the vastness of the Main Room that we hardly knew where to go or what to do. About a month after school had begun we held our first class meeting with Mr. Grove as our class advisor. We olganizeal at this time and felt as though we had a right to be counted in old G. H. S. Accompanied by the Sophomores, we left one Friday evening early in October for Cold Springs, where we all had a most enjoyable time at a Weenie roast . Mr. and Mrs. Grove, Miss Gentzel, Miss Phillippy, and Mr, Way were the chaperones. All four classes decided to have one large party in the gym on the Friday night before Halloween. Different members of the upper classes dec01'ated the gym and arranged for the games and refreshments-ginger bread, cider, pretzels, and candy. Some of our members have made ine re- cords in basketball, hockey, track, and base- ball. We hope to keep up our records and make them still better during the three com- ing years. 22 G. H. S.

The Good Old High School Days are past, the course has been com- pleted, and like many other graduates at this time of year they are wondering just what they will do with their lives. If your preparations during your high school days have been honest and faithful, if you have done the best you could to attain a high standard and played the game fair, you can look back with few regrets. Other grad- uates who have preceded you have looked up- on the obtaining of an education as a worthy purpose, a worth while aim, for those who have succeeded in the three score years or less, have had a lofty purpose, have been at- tracted by an ideal that was big enough. A definite choice of a vocation must be made, which cannot be done without some thought to guide you in an aptness and fitness for the place in life awaiting you to fill, for the door of opportunity has opened for you to enter. You stand on its threshold and, possibly, but dimly see in the distance the mountain peaks which call us from the lower levels to the top of usefulness where there is plenty of room. where you may dedicate yourself and your tal- ents to a life work for the benefit and blessing of mankind, where noble men and devoted women have become great teachers in their struggle to overthrow ignorance or arrayed themselves and their energies against the pre- valence of poverty and indigence. Others have won fame and written their names large on life's pages by conquering the powers of darkness and radiating the everlasting light of a christian civilization. The need of moral and christian charact- er with honest integrity is greater today than ever before and the social and religious train- ing which you have received from christian men and women will safeguard and qualify you for an entrance into the work which you may choose. The Alumni Association with hearty cou- gratulations welcomes you into their number with sincere wishes for your continued suc- cess as you advance in the accumulating of knowledge and facts for the well-being and service of man.

The contestants were as follows: Anna E. Clippinger, Mabel Barnes, Norman Roof, Frances Walck, Genevieve Em- bly, Dorothy Coldsmith, Helen Dinsmcre, Hackett Sollenberger, and Alma Pike. The judges, who were Miss Fletcher, Mr. Whit- more, Mr. Davison, Miss Phillippy, and Miss Zug, chose Helen Dinsmore and Hackett Sol- lenberger to represent Greencastle in the County Field Meet. Genevieve Embly and Norman Roof were chosen as alternates. Miss Zug was the faculty member who trained the entrants for the meet. At the County Field Meet Helen Dins- more, who recited The Highwaymann, won first place in the girls' contest. Hackett Sol- lenberger recited Casey at the Bat and won third place in the boys' contest. DEBATING The preliminary contest proved that the students of G. H. S. are interested in Schol- astic Activities. The question debated was, Resolved: That the Several States Should Enact Legis- lation Providing for Compulsory Unemploy- ment Insurance . Floe Hartman, Alma Pike and Hackett Sollenberger were chosen to represent our Affirmative Team while Nan Conrad, Hilda Stull and Carol Plott composed the Negative Team. In our first debate, February 16th, at Greencastle, the Affirmative Team lost to Waynesboro Negative by a 2-1 decision. At Chambersburg the Negative lost to Chambers- burg 3-0. In our second debate, February 23rd, at Greencastle our Negative Team was defeated by Waynesboro Affirmative team 2-1. On ac- count of sickness the debate between our Affirmative Team and Chambersburg Negative was not held. Mr. H. W. Davison, of the high school faculty, was our very capable coach. -Floe W.

This year the Glee Club sang at the fol- lowing: the Farm and Garden Show, several teachers' meetings, the Christmas entertain- ment, the debates, the George Washington Celebration, the Easter Program, the yearly Sunday School Convention at Brandt's church, and the Field Meet Contest. The year will close with the baccalaur- eate service and the Glee Club will rest over the vacation for another successful year in '32 - '33. ORCHESTRA The orchestra, like the Glee Club, is near- ing the close of another successful year. The orchestra consists of boys from the grades as well as from the High School and all are pro- gressing rapidly under Miss Gentzel's splendid directorship. We are proud of our orchestra and of its director. The Orchestra consists of: 4 Violins, 3 Cornetsg 5 Saxaphonesg 1 Alto Horny 3 Clari- netsg 1 Trombone, Drumsg Piano. CURRENT EVENTS The County Field Meet this year provid- ed an interesting and instructive competition, that of Current Events. Four pupils of the Greencastle High School entered the prelimi- naries. Mary Davis and Howard Long were selected to represent Greencastle High. Carol Plott and Albert Haselbarth were the alter- nates. Due largely to Miss Phillippy, teacher in charge of the event, the first prize was taken by Howard Long. Mary Davis, although not a prize winner, made a fine showing, coming fourth in the contest. -Howard Long G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT QQKQ K mqv s --Cust vevd' Evevifs Ybejaaffevs G. H. S.

One of the chief social events was our palty in the auditorium on April 7. It was a big success. Then too, none of us who were present will forget Mrs. Martin's inspir- ing talk on the ideal young woman.

SPOTLIGHT 29 GIRLS' ATHLETICS The first days of the new school year were ushered in to the accompaniment of hockey. An outstanding feature of the sea- son was the presence of so many Freshmen at practice-a fact which always quickens the heart beat of the coach, and which usually means better teams to come. These recruits helped to fill the many places left vacant by last year's seniors. Due to the fact that Penn Hall had a new hockey coach, we were unable to secure our usual game with that team: but our Blue and Gold games helped to fill the schedule. As hockey will be on the program of the Shippensburg State Teachers' College this fall, we hope to be able to schedule a game with a team from that school and thus have an opportunity to demonstrate our skill in handling the ball and stick. Let's all cooperate and make our next season the best ever! Thanksgiving usually brings thoughts of basketball, and this year was not an exception to the rule. Everyone was on tip toes wait- ing for the thrilling note of that first blast of the whistle. When it finally sounded, the rail- ing was lined with many new faces. As wc lost many of our varsity players in last year's graduating classfthe prospects were rather doubtful at the beginning of the season. With the passing of time, however, the horizon brightened, and when the season was about over, every one felt that next year would bring forth the best season we have seen for a long time. Our new line-up proved skill- ful in passing, speed, and team work. This season initiated the Franklin Coun- ty Basketball League-made up of Scotland, Lemasters, Quincy, Mercersburg, and Green- castle-which will probably become a vital part of our basketball season. Here's a hope that we may become an active factor in the machinery of this league. Well, just watch us step! To think of spring is to think of trackg and to think of track is to think of dashes, basketball throw, and the Field Meet. The usual excitement prevailed at the 1932 meetg W. HARRY GILLAN Grain.

H. S. faced the problems of reconstructing a team of raw material. With a nucleus of two varsity players, and a squad that had not played before this season, Coach Way developed a fast, hard working combination that was playing winning basket- ball at the end of the season. Unfortunately, these conditions prevented our taking a place in the county league. At present, prospects look 'good for a successful season next term. Baseball More boys have come out for baseball this spring than for years. Consequently, Mr. Davison has an aggregation-including a number of Freshmenithat has been playing some mighty interesting baseball. Smooth fielding and hard hitting are the order of the day. Scott in the pitcher's box, and Crunkleton behind the bat, although both new in these positions, have been a formidable battery. With loyal support, the combination spells T-E-A-M.

In the County Meet, the major event of the season, the team was able to roll up a total score of 25 2-3 points. Our boys scooped the field events. Roof and Cump tied for first place in the pole vault at 10 ft. 3 in., while Hassler and Roof tied with Mercersburg for first in the high jump at 5 ft. 6 in. Hassler landed first in the running broad, stretching it out to 19 ft. 1034 in. Mellinger placed in both the 100 yard dash and in the 220, and ran anchor in the relay with Barr, Cump and Hassler, the team tak- ing a close third. With a little more attention to the cind- ers, our school should continue to show the larger schools that there still is dangerous competition in Class A. DOWN IN THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE Wasn't it pleasant, O classmate mine, In those old days of the lost sunshine Of youth-when our hard lessons were all through, And even tomorrow's lessons, too, And we were visiting, me and you , DC-wn in the Old School House? Wasn't it fine, when our lessons came out, And, then, without a fear or doubt We'd go to our classes and each recite Our share of the lesson with all our might- Wouldn't our teachers be filled with delight, Dc-wn in the Old School House? In the library and through the halls, We'd hear those we!l-known accent falls Of classmates, teachers, and strangers, too, And anyone else who chanced to pass through, When we were studying, me and you , Down in the Old School House! Wasn't it grand when we were in care Of a vacant period with no teacher there? How we all talked and whispered aloud,- And neally every one of the crowd Had a message to shout aloud, Down in the Old School House! And then when a teacher came along And found us talking, a happy throng, A great silence reigned over all, So that you could hear a pin fall, Or a mouse run across the hall, Down in the Old School House! I can see that teacher stand at the door, And gaze our little group o'er and o'er To see which was the guilty one, And if his lessons were all done Before another bit of fun Down in the Old School House! Sometimes Ithought they didn't like our class: From some of the expressions I heard passg But I believe, without a doubt, When all is told, and the truth comes out, They'll miss us greatly when we pass out- Out from the Old School House! And so many a time have you and I Together spent in those days gone by With Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors, too, Studying, talking, and visiting through Vacant peliods-which we should not do Down in the Old School House! It all came to me so clear today! As you were sitting across the way- That soon no more we'll visiting be, But far from here on land or sea We'1l each be stationed, you and me , Far from the Old School House! -Lois A.

SPOTLIGHT JOKES Jimmy, I wish you'd learn better table manners: you're a regular little pig at the tae ble . Deep silence on Jimmy's part. So father, in older to impress him more, asked, I say, Jimmy, do you know what a pig is ? Yeh , replied Jimmy meekly. It's a hog's little boy . Kenneth: Mother, which is correct, Rob- ert or Bob '? Mother: Why, I guess Robert is correct . Kenneth: Well, there goes a Robert-tailed dog ! Sonny, what's the noise upstairs ? Maw's draggin Pa's pants over the floor . That shouldn't make much noise . I know, but Pa's in them . Lorraine had just purchased a postage stamp at the post office. Must I stick it on myself ? she asked. Positively, not, miss, replied the clerk. It will accomplish more if you stick it on the letter . Teacher: Earl, tell me the definition for the word widow. Earl: A widow is a woman that lived so long with her husband that he died. -Alma Poper Miss Phillippy: My, what a sad looking li- brary! Nancy: Why? Because it has panes in the windows and the books are in tiers? Earl: This book will do half of your work. Samuel: Good, I'll take two. Compliments of MINNICH 8: McKINNlE GEORGE F.

D0n't you think these eggs are very small ? she said critically. I do , answer- ed the grocer, but that's the kind the farmer sends me. They are fresh from the country this morning . Yes , said the shopper, that's the trouble with these farmers. They're so anxious to get their eggs sold that they take them out of the nest too soon . Teacher: I have went. That's wrong, isn't it? William: Yes, M'a'am. Teacher: Why is it wrong? William: Because you ain't went yet. A Close Shave What is the matter with your face, Roy? Were you in an automobile accident ?
