IN MEMORIAM N loving memory of Kate B.

After four years of more or less eager anticipation, you are now almost readygto embark upon a voyage, each into a different and hitherto unexplored future. Some of you have clearly mapped itineraries for the years immediately aheadMothers have definite ports in mind with courses only vaguely charted. All of you, I sincerely trust, will travel well equipped not only for the clear, bright weather but the stormy days you must inevitably face. Every good sailor believes that he should be strong and of a good couragew thus holding fast to his faith. Those years of preparation at Lafayette should help you to meet the supreme tests of life and prove the abiding worth of all her traditions. No one can be more interested than I in your journeyings. For this reason I am sending a boat letter to every member of the class to be read when your ship of life seems more particularly to be in need of a trustworthy anchor. Probably you have long been aware that one of frequent comments from those who have preceded you in that alumni group, now more than seven thousand strong, is, The years I spent at Lafayette were among the happiest in my life. How I covet for you the same reaction and feeling as you depart! LOYALTY to Lafayette will carry over to a higher loyalty to all that is worthy and will find you highly honored citizens of a great republic no matter where you go. The same spirit which follows the members of our teams in victory or defeat will carry your earnest sup- port for the right no matter what opposition you may meet. HONOR, that virtue we prize in every path of privilege or duty, will make you scorn to do or think any- thing less than the best of which you are capableg to thine own self be trueg thou canst not then be false to any man. We can be happy only when actively engaged for the benefit of others, Lafayetteis proud heritage rests in the many who have gone from her portals to find places of satisfying SERVICE in a great world. As the years unfold before you, I trust that you will never have occasion to regret that Lafayette is your Alma Materg that she may discover you always to be her worthy sons and daughters. On behalf of the alumni I beckon you to a share in their achievements. The light at the Old Plant will always be shining to cheer you on your way or to welcome you home. Your counselor and friend, 16 QLUW1. 'W' N30 SENIOR CLASS Ul1'I+'ICl'1RS M1l.l.lN:TnN l,m:kwmm, Prusialrrnl NANCY IIULLAN, I 1:00-I,I'l'.SillUllf Vuu:1N1,x BLAKE, Sw-rwlrrry PAUL Anuls.

BROTSLAVV, Salutamriun We of the graduating class of 1936 are very happy to welcome you to our class night exercises. We have been looking forward for a long time to this night, for it is the first time that we, as a class, have come together, with our parents, friends and teachers, to spend what we hope will be a very pleasant and enjoyable evening. During the four years that we have been working faithfully at Lafayette, the world has been struggling with momentous problems, economic, social and political. The most important one is probably that of maintaining peace, for no matter how terrible conditions may be in a country, no matter how much unrest and dissension there may be, war can only serve to aggravate these conditions, to make infinitely worse what before seemed unendurable. Attempts are being made to solve the political and economic problems by experimentation with new forms of government, with dictatorships and tyranny, the democracy for which t-he world was made safe in the Great War is being seriously imperiled. Thus we are facing a future beset with difficulties and problems. Fortunately, however, we are not entering the struggle unarmed. We have been trained to think clearly and logically, to form our own opinions and ideas, and to express these ideas simply and forcefully. As thinking citizens we can approach these problems with greater understanding, we can evaluate more clearly the merits of proposed solu- tions, and we can judge with a saner and more balanced mind. Those of us who are able to go to college will undoubtedly find that this is true to a much greater extent after collegiate training. V We of the Class of 1936 are deeply appreciative of all Mr. Gott and the teachers have done for us. We trust that we may justify their faith in us. Whether the classes which come after us follow in the old traditions or whether they forge new ones is, after all, not too important. For times and conditions will continue to change and traditions may become outmoded. But we sincerely hope and believe that these succeeding classes will ever remember Lafayette's high ideals of Loyalty, Honor and Service, and ever strive to live up to them. Without intelligent loyalty, honor and service, in its highest sense of service to humanity, there can be no true greatness, no real achievement. Therefore, let us always hold in mind these splendid principles and let us never cease to exemplify them in our lives. 46 QL: Umcfe VALEIIICTURY Enwum M. KEMPNER, Valedirtorian Ave atque vale! Hail and farewell! These Latin words, so sacred to the Romans, bring to mind the two emotions commingled on this occasion. The joy we may have felt at the completion of our high school life is mellowing into a riper sadness as the actual day of our departure approaches. The last farewell to Lafayette, to our teachers, to many of our companions, is a solemn one. We go to take our place in a fuller life. The age in which we live is destined, we believe, to become a memorable one. Ours is a period of conflictfconflict between conservatism and radicalismfbut it is yet more. It is an era of moral advancement and scientihc achievement, an epoch of speed and confidence, yet of inquiry and a genuine thirst for knowledge, a brief scene in the swift, vivid, crushing pageant of civilization. Our accomplishments. slight though they be, may yet contribute to the onward march of eternal progress. As we stand here today, sad at our departure, novices at the approaching tasks of life, may we yet, through our training at Lafayette, feel reasonably confident of our ability to face life firmly and in that security find much comfort and happiness. When we enter the world, we face our most difficult, yet most glorious, conflict. The education we have received at Lafayette will be the greatest factor in determin- ing our ability to cope with the demands of our community life, our national affairs and international relations. Education has placed upon us the responsibility of maintaining the great principles of American civilization, of encouraging, with youthful enthusiasm, the acceptance of a new experimental viewpoint in govern- ment, of giving fresh impetus to the now ill-directed public opinion, of enkindling within the heart of a people an awakened national conscience. It has inspired us with strength, courage and the love of freedom, it has instilled within us an aversion to dishonesty and selfish cupidity. These and many other noble teachings, which Lafayette has inculcated within us, will prove a rich benefit when we, not too idealistically, yet confidently, enter upon the duties of maturity. And now, before we leave these hallowed walls which have sheltered us so faith- fully, we pause to acknowledge our debt of gratitude to you, the faculty, whose counsel and solicitude for us we have cherished. You have been our friends as well as our guides. To you. Mr. Gott, whose labors in our behalf have stimulated us to noblest endeavors. the Class of 1936 gives its fullest appreciation, esteem, honor and affection. agdyeffe ..

Q4 OWL BUYS' HISTURY ANGELO F.-XTTA, Boys' HiSllITillll F or the erlyication of the under classmen and as a memorial :J our achievements at our Alma Mater, we here relate in four chapters the history of the Class of 1936. On the eighth day of the ninth month of the year nineteen hundred and thirty-two a crowd of students joined together in the bonds of friendshi J at the entrance of the school. Confident in their ability and eager to show what they could do, tlhey enrolled at Lafayette that day. ln fear and trepidation, the new students wabbled up the steps at the main entrance and finally after much wandering and searching discovered, to their dismay, that the auditorium was at the head of the very stairs by which they had entered. They were cordially greeted by Cap lllellen, principal of the school at that time. Under the supervision of Mr. Gott, classes were soon organized and a friendly feeling toward the school and the student body developed. Although the youngest in the school, we furnished notable contributions in the field of sports, namely: R. Cohen, Wi. Houck, C. Sage, E. Wlebster and B. Smith. We attacked our studies as enthusiastically as we supported our teams. Those who attained high scholastic records are L. Burwell, R. Brouse, R. Smith, H. Limburg and R. Day. Thence came the long expected day when we were eleratecl from the meeklv ranlfs of Freshmen to the seemingly dignqied position of Sophomores. I n the heat of our second year's enthusiasm we put a de- termined ejort into mastering the hypotheses of Geometry, the annals rj Ancient Historv, and the translations of Caesar. The year, however, was successful in both athletic and scholastic endeavors. In sports we find F. Jelliuek, a member of the championship golf team, R. McGhee, V. Troyer, L. Siegal and R. Dennick in cross countryg H. Little and A. Konikoff serving on the undefeated basketball team. Our studies received more attention since we felt that the Sophomore year was the most difficult of all four years. As a result, in examinations, R. Fry, S. Mason, C. Stein, D. Blakeslee, E. Bollard and R. Kempner were awarded with second year testimonials. Alas, our sophisticated airs vanished and we entered the Junior year with a more ambitious zeal toward the achievement of our goal. We noticed on the first day of school the absence of several of our school chums, but we continued our upward trend with a few new members: S. Satulojf, A. Gervas, W. Gafke, R. Davis and R. Sandstone, who capablv filled the places ofthe missing. C. Chapin, M. Janicki, G. Godfrey, A. Clugston, L. Yates, J. Ciccarelli and A. Gugino earned the varsity LW for participation in athletics. J. Brucato and J. Reed both received prizes for their contribution in the Name-Design contest for the school paper. The assistance of R. Fahey, M. Koskye, YV. Greenberg and J. Healy in launching the school paper was greatly appreciated. N. Whiting received a prize in the City-Wlide Poster Contest. However, in studies, we were no laggards, for R. Gibbons, L. Lipsitz, E. Hiller, J. Collier, Wi. Newcomb and K. Levin upheld Lafayette's name in the honor roll list. Together we endeavored to maintain within our class the school7s traditions. As Seniors, the Class of 1936 was now the object of general attraction about the school. A hearty welcome was given to Miss Coonly, who was appointed homeroom teacher of Room 3. With the same vigor and rim of our former years, and eager to show ourselves in a scholarly role, we presented our- selves before our teachers, and won new honorsfboth scholastic and athletic. Inevitable it is that all stories come to a close and thus our four years at Lafayette were ended by the final June examinations. As we pass into broader fields of life, may the pages that were created during our four years of schooling at Lafayette be borne in our book of memories. twain .. .,LL. . , . M .

Lafayette was abundantly provided with RFRESHWIEN who traversed multitudinous corridors to mysterious, subterranean Room 32, discovered by E. Levin, ll. Levy and J. llughey. The great, balconied assembly, opposite the main entrance, was the object of tiny emissaries sent to petition that the freshmen might stand in the back. llere danseuse, Fl. Urban made her debut: here petite M. Blackmarr, seated at the grand piano, was almost engulfed. The homeroom path led to Room 7, where L. Blair's chatter prevailed: to Room 2513, where NI. Short was a willing helper: to Room 5, where our poised vice-president, N. Hogan, lost her composure when she won her bet on the election of President Roosevelt. While C. Locurto was laboring over the intricacies of algebra in Room 4, J. Evernden's classroom trail led her to the dissection of pickled grasshoppers in the biology room. From classrooms, route 365 led to sports. Although lil. Wvahl, G. Zuzze and ll. Safer were content to keep a volleyball from the floor, more strenuous sports were popularg the cyclist path was visited by G. Chappelle, who pedaled beside the skating O. Catalano. Forty long weeks from the point :J beginning and three paces to the right loomed Rooms 4 and 5, with the distinction of housing the XRSOPIIOMORE GIRLS. By a quirk of fate, some found themselves seated in the chemistry room, trying in vain to retain dignity in seats that would not stay whole. As Captain was going to say farewell to the old plant that year, all classes participated in the assembly when voluminous books cj good wishes were presented to the retiring principal. Along the often frequented pathway, route 365, lsee abovej one saw A. Sapienza playing basket- ball and baseball and bl. Pantano as a full-fledged swimmer. Raising lusty voices in the SINGING TOWER, also known as the glee club, were S. Melchiorre, M. Gall and H. Rymell. V. Root, E. Colicchia, J. Robinson and V. Schultz have been active in girl reserves, starting from this year. Outside of school, K. Oliver kept up her interest in girl scouts. Stepping gingerly over a path strewn with tardy slips, B. Ewart started the competition to see who could be tardy most often. The wider route through classes, 153, disclosed F. Cohen struggling through trapezoids while J. 50 Q48 0'CdC!6 Murphy was perfecting her style for a walking encyclopedia. Making the walls reecho, A. Elliot robustly cheered our entrance into the junior station. Ojfered as a shining reward for achieving a passing grade in a two-year stretch of Regents, Lafayette presented huge Room 24, possessing a French, German, and a thumb-worn W ebster's Dictionary, and a shelf of blooming plants. Captain had left usg but in his place was a man as helpful, kind and con- siderate as is humanly possible. While Captain's inquiries about mother, dad, sister and brother would be missed, we knew the new manager of the plant was one to whom we could go with troubles. The JUNIORs had put away their childish ideals of being great actresses, writers, or scientists and had settled down to work. While the junior season was at its height during JUNIOR DAY fpastel dresses, flowers and musicj, V. Blake's oratorical abilities rose to unique heights. M. Coleman's laughter could be distinguished above all others. The gymnasium Csometimes first floor, sometimes fourthj was a haven for sport loving folk fperfected holeproof scheme for skipping attained by O. Druar and E. Grossmanl. The only vibrant personality after four flights of stairs was tap-dancer J. Leeg here were the still smiling M. W'eber, H. MacPherson, M. A. Cunningham and B. Hagadorn, From the fourth Hoot, where M. Hess dexterously handled a ping pong paddle, route 365 fsee abovej descended four floors in the shaky elevator, turned right, entered the gym. In swift progress was the basketball match between H. Anderson, E. Loos, B. Bernard, B. Dietrich anl E. Gates. Down the narrow stairs and through the shower rooms the route led to the swimming pool. Who would be the victor, D. Mitchell, A. Anderes, or M. Blakely? Acting along the dramatic trail, which led to Stage, were J. Friedman and C. Risman. On the outskirts of Lafayette, the waterfront, slums, and other mysterious places, the sketchers, M. Vacanti, S. Sato and J. Hudspith, were discovered. Frequenting the Triangle office were M. J. Breese and M. Valler. Acquainted with its sacred aisles only during nerve-wracking exams, the new 'sENIORs were un re ared or the innacle o li e at La avette, Room ll. Down aisles tread bv cnerations o Seniors P P P t I 1 . 5. . to seats carefully marked on roll call cards marched the milling throng: there, all listened to college field secretaries extolling their campuses, announcements of class meetings, and the ceaseless cry of ticket vendors. In Room 3lA, were Vergil's faithful followers: M. Broad, E. Stalter fherself a poetj, R. Posman- tur and D. Pratt. Then there was M. Thompson, the little girl who lacks imagination in Room 30, her Cicero class. ln chemistry laboratory, a suburb, R. Schramm was not content with her own experiment exploding, but also bore the brunt of Mr. Hartel's only mistake. Second only to Roosevelt in drawing modernistic designs was B. D,Arcangelo in American history. Although the gift of chatter was recognized in M. Simon and P. Johnston, A. Brotslaw's fiery oratory on social- ized medicine remained unparalleled. THE OPERA HOUSE, located in Room ll, music room, or any well chosen spot, resounded to golden voiced T. Altman's or B. Hobson's singing. Short walks were taken to E. Stulberg's corner when her abilities as class clown were recognized. Wlellesley-minded P. Bunshaft and V. Janes, who aspires to Mechanics' Institute, seemed likely to succeed. M. DiBlasi decorating blackboards, the suppressed giggles of D. Parsons, and the tiptoeing errand- runner, B. Smades, were integral parts of every fifth hour. When the turkey sponsored by an anonymous artist and J. Kehr failed to appear at the Thanksgiving game, great was the indigna- tion in 11. The chief gathering place of admiring neighbors was the 'niche where those charming baby pictures which E. Fox drew and the baby portraits which B. D fyle showed were displayed. Walking the half mile to her seat with slow, steady gait was C. Lester, carrying the famed brief case. Anyone looking for foreign servants could find N. Hammel and K. Pietsch, offering excellent recommendations. Knitting was once a favorite assembly pastime, as P. Sukernek and L. Soronson testified. Little did anyone realize K. Wlillis' love for flowers until she pinned roses on all the honor students. Foremost of the main lines which wind so obstinately through the building is the first floor corridorg standing in front of THE TROPHY CASE, an important junction, one always saw B. Shaw, E. Johnson, K. Carrick, G. Myers and J. Mathewson surrounded by admiring swains. Running wildly were B. Lippman and H. Rumizen, searching for Triangle material. Unquestion- ably, the cafeteria is a room attained by only a select few before all the seats are gone. Daily J. Strasmer munched peanut butter sandwichesg daily J. Hood tripped to the candy counter for a cocoanut cluster. Madame la presidente D. Mohr conducted French meetings en francais in Room 307. The great Lafayette itinerary, as it nears completion, passes through COMMENCEMENTVILLE, now bedecked with violet and white. From here, we traverse increasingly wider roads: route 21 to college, 309 to positions, or 621 to greater learning. agayelle ..

Presenting MAJOR KOLASSA and his AMATEURS and the MIGHTY LAFAYETTE ART PLAYERS, brought to you through the courtesy of the Comfort Casket Company, better known to you as the CCC. First we have the TOWN HALL bulletins for this evening: There will be no tea tomorrow afternoon in Mr. Hammond's third floor lounge due to the recent lack of lemons. We have just received a contribution from the Eskimos to help us buy fur shorts for the spring track team. Now if Walter Willoughby will kindly lower the screen, we shall present the TOWN HALL news of the week. CAFETERIA: A revolution has occurred! Miss Funk has definitely refused to serve alphabet soup fearing that the unconstitution- ality of letters will bear down upon her. INFIRMARY: Because of the tremendous demand for glass for use in the giant telescope at Corning, Mrs. ,Iones has requested sickly Lafayetters to bring their own thermometers. COOKING ROOM: Miss Kempner announces that in the future she will combine her course in First Aid with that in Can-Opening. LIBRARY: Panic broke out during the annual spring cleaning when Miss Borchard found Clark Burdick, Dorothy Mohr and Donald Dummond buried under the encyclopedias looking for the history of Eugene the Jeep. With this we conclude the TOWN HALL news of the evening. Next on the program we shall present Major Kolassa and his famous amateurs. Here is Major Kolassa, fresh from is triumphs in Room Thirty-three, speaking: Friends, I have an extraordinary group of amateurs with me this evening, so let us begin. The wheel of fortune spins, and like most wheels has a flat tire. First we have that famous ,toe dancer, P. J. Hunt, who will reveal to us how easily one can dance on his partner's toes. Take it away, Mr. Hunt! 'I am indeed sorry, Major, but Iim a little stiff from the falls and unable to dance for you this eveningf Oh, that's all right, Mr. Hunt, it doesn't matter where youire from. Next we present that famous traveller and commentator, Keith Webb, who will tell us why the people of Moscow are called Mosquitoes. Mr. Webb- 'Quick, Major! The Flit!' Now we have Naomi Hammel, a great dramatic actress, who will enact for us a scene from Three Men on a Horse -All ready, Miss Hammel? 'I regret, Major, that I shanit be able to perform for you this evening: unfor- tunately one of the men didn't show up., Oh, that's quite all right, Miss Hammel, he probably went home for the saddle. Next on the program, ladies and gentlemen, we have the up-and-coming Vergil Club who will sing for us in Latin. Their selection is 'A Latin from Manhattanig the terra cotta is yours, Vergilians. Pardon me, friends of the air, I regret to an- nounce that the club has encountered great difficulty and cannot sing for us this eveningvthey lost their bagpipes in Room 3IA. And now for the winner! We award a weekis engagement at the Lafayette Assembly beginning February Thirtieth, to Jesse Kimmel who will play piano so delightfully for us next week. This concludes our amateur program for tonight. Qffontinued on page 59j await. HOMORE BOYS RO0MS 23-12 S0l'HOMORE BUYS Il00M16 Q46 OWL .F ' ,'ff'h5:?.

Contrary to the usual custom, the members of our Senior Class elected the Editor-in-Chief of the Yearbook. With the full cooperation of the members of the various staffs, the Yearbook was compiled. This year it con- tains much information concerning the Freshmen, Sophomores. and Juniors, as well as the Seniors. lt is the sincere hope of the Staff to publish a Yearbook which will contain a full account of our school activities and which also will prove of everlasting interest and value to the whole school and not merely the Seniors. Witli the promul- gation of this book, the members of the Oracle Yearbook Staff desire to prove that the superstition of misfortune concerning the number thirteen is this time fallible. lfiflh Row: C.

Junior Boys' Home Room 29, meeting in the second half of the fifth hour, won the spectacular opening day race with its remunerative prize of a ten per cent discount. With salesmen working to win the award for the highest percentage of individual sales, with underclassmen entering in the Oracle essay contest, and with a persistent publicity staff featuring the Oracle,s merits in posters, plays, and pep talks, sales progressed smoothly until the end of April. Under the direction of six capable workers headed by Frank Jellinek, a well-filled advertising section assisted greatly in securing the annual's financial success. Following Lafayette's code of honor in the observance of administrative orders, our representatives competently collected advertisements from our loyal business supporters. Although little accredited as exponents of our publication's value, the home room salesmen are truly one of the most important factors in our annual campaign. Determined to surpass their quotas, they have day after day pleaded with their fellow students. We are also grateful to the home room teachers who have so frequently and readily helped to stimulate sales in their study rooms. Fourth Ro 1.-: W. Will .,.i ghlry, J. vanmar, H.

Fineberg The Triangle during the two years of its existence, has become one of Lafayette,s most vital institutions. It has entirely assumed the position formerly held by the Oracle magazine in our student life. This publication offers a medium through which Lafayette students can express their ideas and interests, and advertise their activi- ties-thereby uniting the entire student body in a friendly cooperative spirit. This year a subscription campaign was successfully conducted in September not only to insure the financial support of the Triangle, but also to effect a prompt and eflicient circulation of the publication. The newspaper has been considerably en- larged in actual size this year, and twelve issues have appeared on the newsstands. The excellent work of the literary and advertising staffs has justified the loyal sup- port of the student body. The Triangle owes a debt of gratitude to our principal, Mr. Gott, for his helpful cooperation, and to its faculty advisorsfMiss Thurber, Miss Kammerer, Miss Weiffenbach, Mr. Walz and Mr. Svensson4who have materially aided in the suc- cess of this publication. 6igd?6ii6 69 DEBATERS BRING HONDRS , R. lilneslein.

The club has had a twofold purpose this year, the develop- ment of personality and the encouragement of discussion on current affairs. In de- veloping the first, all the girls in the school were invited to a talk Fashions for the High School Uirlii presented through the courtesy of J. N. Adam Company. A model wardrobe was shown. A beauty expert from Flint 81 Kent instructed the club in the use of cosmetics. In order to become better acquainted with the affairs of the world, Cosmopolitan ,Meetings have been held. .M these. girls who are familiar with the customs of foreign countries were invited to speak. Yera Ponafidine gave an interesting talk on Russia. Angeline Benjamin, delegate to the Convention at Utica, reported that she had spent a delightful and profitable week-end. On February I4 a jolly skating party was held at the Kenmore fllink. During the spring. many hikes were enjoyed: the Lafayette Club enjoyed the All-High Dance. The Club extends a cordial welcome to their new advisor Nfiss lflleanor Verduin, formerly of Columbia University. Fourth Rout K. Spear. H. Millikin. M. Dietrich. B. IJ:-Laughter. D. Pratt, M.

Morgaute, Nl. Wiorth, R. Swerdloff, S. Hayman, P. Sperazza, S. Caveretta, B. Ziff, M. Puleo This year marked the revival of the Music Club. On the last Friday of every month. the members gathered in Room 308 for an enjoyable and profitable meeting. The club had numerous purposes, among them to give the members confidence in playing before an audience, to improve their conception of music, and to increase their knowledge of musical compositions. Each meeting was devoted to one particular phase of music. The members showed their musical abilities which ranged from piano and voice to using a number of water glasses for an instrument. Mr. Ham- mond gave a lecture on Practical Interpretation of Music.', He illustrated the de- velopment of instruments and the production of tone. This was considered by all to be one of the most interesting meetings. William Houck served as president of the group, while Ruth Kroll was vice-president and Charlotte Schendel, secretary. The directing committee was comprised of Winifred Bolster, Ruth Swerdloff, Glynn Dickens and Donald Voltz. Miss Jennie Warner was the capable faculty advisor. The Music Club has offered to the students of Lafayette, who have musical abilities. an excellent opportunity to develop their talents. dgayeffe 73 S0ll00L llJOYS 0ll0HESTllll Fourth Row: ll.

Fritts This year as always, music has formed a vital part of our school life. Through the medium of our exceptional orchestral organization, many splendid programs have been presented. At our musical assembly attended by Dr. Hartwell, the orchestra provided an interesting program. Throughout the year as the occasion demanded, the orchestra did much toward making our assemblies successful. It furnished music for the French and German plays. On Memorial Day this exceptional group assisted the Senior Girls in making their program a success. The orchestra opened our Spring Concert with several fine selections. It will also play at Graduation. Under the capable direction of Mr. Jocoy, this well-trained group has undertaken such selections as The Dance of the Hours, The White Queen Overture, Creole Queen. and The Raltoczy M arch. Throughout the year. Zoe Lynex has accompanied the orchestra and performed as an accomplished soloist. . ji. Omz. BAND SPOIlTS NEW 0IlTFITS This has been an outstanding year in the history of Lafayette's band. Early in the spring of 1935 a campaign was started to outfit the band. This was culminated by Tag Day and now, for the first time since its organization, the band has uniforms. In their natty blue and white suits the members of this organization have played at all our football assemblies, and were always present at the All-High Stadium when our eleven was on the field. At the Masten Rally the band contributed to the spirited revival of the once-famous Lafayette-Masten rivalry. This group again assumed an important part in the Spring Concert at which occasion it played several selections. It also took part in the festive Arbor Day program sponsored by the Senior boys and. as is customary, led the annual outside march. All in all, the band has done much to create a livelier interest in music in Lafayette. Fourth Row: M. Berzon. A. Boyce, G. Cohen, J. Arnold. J. Toherman, P. Cecala, C. Maggio. R. Kempner, G.

The school supported it to such an extent that it was necessary to give two performances, one for the lower school on Thursday afternoon, December 12, and the other for the upper school on Friday evening. The second was followed by dancing. Proceeds went to a fund to be used to ''Put-capes-on-the-band. The cast saw that the audience received their moneyis worth. Harold l eldman's Treblers supplied the music. That popular blues singer. Marian Feinsinger, sang You Are My Lucky Star. Thelma Altmanls rendering of Alone was another high spot. Ruth Croll and .lean Kimmel also sang delightfully while Viola Crandall mixed comedy with song and gave us O,Leo, and Thank You, Mrs. Lownsbury, Coodbyf, Several novelty dances by such experts as Helen O'Hara added variety. James La Bonney, John Dolan, Kirk H ubbard, Eugene Hagg, Charles Chapin and Charles Barone brought down the house with their dramatic presentation of Nell, Pet O' The Plains or Her Final Sacrifice.

Because of the number of girls eager to join this new activity, the club was divided into two groups of twenty members each, one riding Thursday afternoons, the other Fridays from Runser's Riding Academy. Miss Hartzell, faculty advisor, rode with each group. Marjorie Schaffer presided over the weekly meetings when the girls chose which of several riding routes they wished to follow that week. The ride through Delaware Park was most popular, and the girls have made great progress during the year. gdyeffe ICI ON PARLE FRANCAIS Fuurllz Row: H. Anderson, R. Lightfoot, V. Root, S.

Rosenberg Early in November the French Club was oflicially organized under the direction of Miss Dayton. The membership consists of third and fourth year students. There is no English spoken during any of these meetings. Un December 4, Frank ,lellinek gave an interesting discussion on the value of French. Elizabeth Kirck, Anthony LaDuca and Anita Samson contributed to the program on December 18. At the meeting of February 5, Virginia ,lanes and Julia Kehr presented a short French play. There were also readings by Edith Levin, Rita Posmantur, Doris Parsons and Winifred Bolster. On February 11, an interesting French play was given by Frank ,lellinek and Amy ,lane Meyers. At the sixth meeting, after ,lean Crawford and ,lean Strasmer completed their French selection, a play Diner au cafew was presented by Irene Rosenberg, Anita Samson, and Virginia Root. The members especially enjoyed the singing of the lwarseillaise and various other French songs at the close of each meeting. The main purpose of this club is to enable French students to speak and comprehend the French language more efficiently. Certainly this year's group has done much to bring about the realization of that purpose. .. 274.0-...1. DER DEIITSCHE JIIGENIWEREIN ln accordance with the unbroken traditional precedent, established by Carl F. Siekmann, German professor emeritus, an active German Club was organized and has flourished under the competent guidance of Miss Schulz, present instructor of the Teutonic language. The efforts of the officers of the organization together with those of the program committee, Alice llopkins, Morris Unher and Clark Burdick, have succeeded in producing one of the most successful and outstanding seasons ever enjoyed by one of the school language clubs. Mr. Siekmann's eloquent and vivid description of a film depicting the route of his contemplated trip to central Europeg an inter-scholastic theatre party shared with Bennett and East high schools at the suggestion of the Little German Theatre, and an excursion picnic at the Automobile Club stand out prominently among the elub's activities. The splendid German assembly program, enjoyed by the upper classmen. was a feature of our yearly program. Fiflh Rolf: E. Guann, NI. Unher. G. Geiger. A. Wilton. A. NI. Raych. B. lfnhlnarll. E. Dwyer.

L DRAMATISTS PRESENT SHREW The Dramatic Club, under the excellent supervision of Miss Wechter, opened this year with a rapid survey of plays and playwrights. As it is usually customary for the Dramatics Club to dramatize one or more plays during the year, the class took a vote and agreed that The Taming of the Shrewf' by Shakespeare, should be the first play to be presented. During the intense rehearsals for this play the rest of the class, that is, those not in the cast, were reading over and dramatizing a short one- act play called Rich Man-Poor Man, which will also be presented in the assembly. Now, of course, the Dramatics class had to study the fundamentals of acting and Stage Terminology or stage lighting and setting. The Lafayette stage fol- lows the Portmanteau Theatrew or a stage on which plays are dramatized with simply the curtain or backdrop, the lighting effects and little or no furniture. The Taming of the Shrew, which was recently dramatized in one of our assemblies, is a most interesting and amusing play. Lack of time, scenery and costumes did not permit them to dramatize the entire play so the club selected several scenes and cleverly linked them together. Ferdinand Hilt, who played the part of Petruchio, the tamer, gave a fine performance. Dorothy Diebolt and Inez Grods also gave excellent interpretations of Katherine, the shrew.,' Bill Meese was very good as Lucentio, the lover of Bianca, who was played exquisitely by Betty Robertson. Irving Ruben was a noteworthy Hortensia and Jack Boswell was a choice Baptista. Last, but by no means least, was Edith Devlin, a servant to Petruchio, who although she had little to say, performed an admirable piece of pantomime acting. On the whole, the Dramatics Club has done remarkably well, and owes much of its success to Miss Wechter, their advisor. Third Row: E. Johnson, R. Schranlnl, B. Liebeskind, G. Anderson, E. Flynn, H.

Some of the enthusiastic artists were eager to continue their work in sketching, and so banded together for afternoon sessions under the direction of Miss Ethel M. Davis. At that time there were about fifteen interested persons. They decided that this was a sufficient number for a club and so organized the first Sketch Club. This year the club maintains a membership of thirty persons who meet frequently and sketch. They have visited the waterfront, and the park for their picturesque settings. Miss Davis' art room is the studio to which they adjourn for directions and advice. The officers are President, Frank Littog Secretary, Mary Di Blasig Treasurer, Rose Mary Foley. Members of the Sketch Club have distinguished themselves this year with small pins in the fashion of an artist's pencil. ...Mafia 81 3 A .

Scott WMWMWJW' lafayeffe GOLF TEAM PLACES SIXTH Golf is an up and coming sport in Lafayette. This has been proved again during the past year by the fine results our team has shown. Although the members did not place high in the All-High meet, they coordinated creditably. The players started the year in line form, opening with a trial match with Bennett which they lost by a very small marginfl-1 to 10. Lafayette was decisively outpointed by South Park, 15 to 9, in the match played on September 28g but recovered some of its prestige in the victorious Nlastcn game which they won by a score of ZZVZ to lk. In the All- High Golf Nlatches of October 8. the team placed sixth. The four lowest men on the team were Bob Lowe with an Sl. Dwight Blakeslee with an and George Briggs and Dick Brouse with 9l's.

As soon as spring weather permitted, Mr. Schmidt, the team coach issued a call for volunteers for the various events. The 1935 team was kept fairly intact, with exceptionally few losses. With this as a working basis, a well-rounded team was made including much of the raw material newly discovered this year. Very many boys tried out for the team merely for the training, interest in athletics, or the urge for competition. Every boy who turned out got much out of the events, regardless of whether he was successful in making the team or not. Thus, whether the team wins overwhelmingly or not, it is a credit to Lafayette.

Probable varsity men are Al Konikoff, Dick Fletcher, George Stagg and Nick Maiorana. On the squad are Joseph 'Ciccarelli, Dick Rosenblatt, Ralph Cohen, Dwight Blakeslee and Richard Lowe.

The remarkable playing of Cleo Brown, forward, marked one of the highlights of the game. On one occasion, with her back to the wall, sur- rounded on all sides by guards, she leaped into the air, turned, shot and made the basket. In the next game the luck changed. The White team defeated the Violet with .1 Score of 4 to 3. Dorothy Pratt and Evelyn Loos made outstanding plays in this second game of the series. The last game was the deciding factorg victory again went to the Violets with a score of 7 to 2.

Delitsch, J. Graham, F. Hartwell Last fall the girls' tennis tournament opened with an unusually large number of contestants. This tournament is an elimination contest, and the first round was completed before the season closed. Half of the sixty-eight entrants have already been eliminated. The outstanding players in last yearls tournament are pictured aboveg Coreene Taylor was leading at letter day. The winner of this year's contest will not be known until the remaining rounds have been completed in the spring. Almost all of the girls outstanding last year show signs of holding the same honor again. The matches are played at Delaware Park or on courts more conveniently located for the participants. The winner is judged by the best two out of three sets. On letter day the leader receives a corsage and distinctive honor. The players find thorough enjoyment as well as keen competition in the sport. 96 Qi. Owe BASEBALL ATTRACTS 70 GIRLS Under the able direction of Nliss Quirk this year's baseball season was a great suc- cess. Each night over seventy spirited girls reported and played until after four oiclock. Mildred Pantano started the season off with one of her well-known home runs. Mildred has played with the Amateur Girls' Baseball Team of Buffalo for two seasons. The girls are very proud of their record. particularly of the fact that they escaped with only one accident. Evelyn Loos was the unfortunate victim. N EW SPORTS POPULAR Newest and most popular of the girls' activities is the Tap Club composed of girls chosen from the gym classes. Une hundred and twenty-Hve girls attended the weekly meetings and learned a dance routine which they expect to present in assembly on Girls' Letter Day. The Girls' Ping Pong tournament was won this year by Sylvia Xlaisel. Marie- Anna Feine was the runner-up. We are also proud to announce that Sylvia Maisel is the Senior and Junior WOIH6H,S Table Tennis Champion of Buffalo. She has a beautiful stroke and has every reason to expect even greater success. Another sport that is very enthusiastically followed is badminton. About forty girls turned out this year for the annual tournament. Among them were Lois Fricke. Verna Dayman and Beatrice Souter.
