Lillian Rauscher Junior Representative 13 ditorial In the year 1492 people, held by a superstitious ignorance, dared venture no further than the charted ways of man. An invisible wall of wild imaginings separated the known from the unknown and people shuddered at the thought of sailing that uncharted main. Then came Columbus with his dauntless courage and unbounded faith. With standards set far and high he scaled the wall and set forth into unknown seas. But courage and perseverance won their reward and today the world honors the name af the Great Navigator. So with us. We have reached now the wall separating us from life ' s unknown, uncharted seas. Hitherto we have been guided by fond parents, wise teachers, and good friends. Life has been made easy for us. But now life opens up for us with no chart but caution, no guide but conscience. It remains for us to set our standards so high and far that like the Great Navigator, we shall at the end have done that which is greatest in life: Added something to the sum total of the world ' s happiness and knowledge. With these thoughts in mind the Carontawan Board of ' 2.5 has been preparing for you a beacon to cheer you along the unknown trail. In it will be found a wealth of smiles and beautiful memories and perhaps just a few tears. And so we leave you with the hope that in future years this Carontawan may be the inspiration that carrie.- ' you ever forward to higher and greater conquests to the end that only honor shall adorn the name of our fair Alma Mater. 14 I FWn |ii;! he Facu WILLIAM R.

She is one of our down-town sjirls and to her seven-forty-five class is never late. Marguerite is always good-natured and is a friend to everyone. Best wishes for success. DAISY ALLEN Y. W. C. A. Mansfield, Pa. Our class was glad to welcome this golden-haired, blue-eyed Miss this year. Daisy is very clever with her pen and will long be remembered as the assistant handwriting teacher. We don ' t know so much about her personal affairs, but from some of the reports we have heard we prophesy Daisy won ' t make teach- ing school her life work. She is sure to make friends wherever she goes. BEATRICE ATKINSON Morris Run, Pa. Short but sweet! Small but skillful! Whoever said. The nicest things come in small packages , must have been thinking of Bea . Her closest friends remember her for her quick sympatliy and ready wit. Do you need a comforting word ? Bea has it! Or if you feel like being gay she can lise to the occasion. ' Tisn ' t everyone can get the raspberry She dimples. Bea is a good reasoner and elucidator and her logic is as sound as the Rock of Gibraltar. Called upon to recite, she is never caught without words. Did anyone ever hear Bea say I don ' t know ? LEAH AUSTIN Wellsboro, Pa. Lear Art Club; Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. One glance at Leah ' s laughing brown eyes and you are a victim. Everywhere she goes she wins scores of friends. If you ask her what she likes best in life she will promptly reply, Fun and letters from Ulysses . Leah is a jolly girl, always ready for a good time, especially if eats are mentioned. With all of her ability as a teacher, we do not think she will ever go on the pension list. 22 MARY AY RES Mansfield, Pa. Here ' s to Mary, a jolly good girl, who knows her own mind and is not afraid to express it. She ' s mighty nice to look at but be careful boys or some- one will be jealous. We can ' t blame him, though. There ' s always success for a girl like Mary. CORA BAKER Scranton, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society; Vice President Girls ' Athletic Club. Well, what can we say about Cora ? She needs no introduction. Since her first day at M. S. N. S. she has made everyone her friend. Who could resist the sunny smile of our fair little Cora ? One of her most admirable traits is her thoughtfulness for others. If anyone needs any help Cora is always first on the job. All the kiddies in the Training School love Miss Baker , and we predict much success for her as a school teacher — and, ever after — for Cora has charms that attract — well, ask Ray. GERALDINE BAKER Elkland, Pa. Gerry Rurban Club; Art Club; Dramatic Club; Caron- tawan Board; Athenaean Literary Society. Gerry hails from Elkland, but that is nothing against her. And if Elkland has any more like her, we say, Send them over! For two years she has done even more than her share to help keep things going. In the Training School, she proved her ability. Pretty, popular, and a wonderful pal, — that ' s Gerry . MARIE BARRY Waverly, N. Y. Marie comes to us from Waverly. Though quiet and reserved, she is friendly and enjoys a good time. She loves fun and good eats which you will know if you have ever visited 532 at 9:30. We know that success is sure to be hers for she has that dauntless will so necessary to teachers. and is willing to tackle anything. 23 MARTHA BARTLETT Galeton, Pa. Athletic Club; Vice President Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. Quiet? — most people think she is, but oh. my! they don ' t really know her. Sometimes — only sometimes — Martha comes to our feeds. We are royally entertained when Martha is present, but she can always do better in the dark. We wonder why! Every time this quiet lady breaks a rule she declares it is the last one she ' ll ever break. Martha is more conscientious than most of us, but anyway we all love her. Because Martha was one of the best teachers in the Model School we expect great things of her next year. LETTIE BASSETT Ulysses, Pa. The proof of a school teacher is in her class- room. If you don ' t believe Lettie is one of the best of the profession, take a peep into the third grade room of the Model School any morning. If the kiddies are on their toes with interest and acting like miniature angels then Miss Basset is in the room. The kiddies love her, too. But her kind face and pleasant manner are not limited to the four walls of the Training School alone, and we do not wonder that she is so well loved there. Best of pedagogical luck to you, Lettie. KATHERINE BELKNAP Mansfield, Pa. Kato Dramatic Club; Carontawan Board; Basketball. Basketball — Our famous forward. Tennis — An almost school champion. Swimming — A rival of our world famous Hawaiian cousins. Dancer — A class second to Mrs. Vernon-Castle-Tre- main-McCormick. Figure — A reincarnation of Venus. Teeth — An original Colgate advertisement. Hair — At last the long sought for Golden Fleece. Style — A chicness that does justice to Mrs. Julia Hoyt. Mix the above thoroughly and you have our be- loved Kato. HELEN F. BENNING Kingsley, Pa. Benny Rurban Club; Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. If you want anything done, go to Benny ; she ' ll do it with her famous smile. How she does love to work, and how she does love to play! Benny is ever the same sweet girl — cheerful and industrious. She is determined to teach in a one-room school. We wish her the best of success. 24 EDNA BJORK Jermyn, Pa. •Ed Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society; Treas- urer Girls ' Athletic Club. We always find Ed ready and willing to do whatever may suggest itself either for pleasure or for its opposite (work); that ' s why we all like her so much. Her sweet personality is an outstanding feature for her future success. Just be yourself, Ed , and you ' ll win! We are proud to say that she was a teacher much loved by the kiddies of the kindergarten and model school, and feel sure the same will be true in the future. INCEL M. BENSON Covington, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Here is the girl that is always ready to do what- ever is asked of her. If no one else is willing to do it, why, ask Incel. She will. Besides she is full of enthusiasm and ideas that no one else would think of. Incel is always writing to the sick. One of her letters will do you as much good as all the doctors ' medicine. Incel is a sure cure for the blues. She is a friend worth having. REED BENSON Y. M. C. A.; Glee Club. Mansfield, Pa. Even though vanquished he could argue still. Reed is a determined kind of boy and adheres to strict rules of his own, yet sensible enough to listen to the advice of others. His perseverance and zeal in whatever he undertakes to do are predominant features in Reed ' s make-up. On these two traits he may hinge his future. He is not easily discouraged and success we know will be his. LOIS BLACK Canton, Pa. Loudy Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Did you ever see Lois angry? Probably not, she ' s always so smiling and calm. But that ' s not what one thinks about her when Sociology is mentioned. Rather — the roll has been taken for several minutes and we are ready to begin the sociological discus- sion of the day — when the door slowly opens and Why, there ' s Miss Black. 25 LOUISE BOSTWICK Weezie Y. W. C. A.; Out Door Club. Elkland, Pa. A hard and conscientious worker is Louise. She is very ambitious and hopes to attend college in the future. We expect she will choose a Western -Uni- versity as her greatest interest attends one in Wyoming. This dignified, brown haired lass is from Elkland. We are certain that Elkland has reason to be proud of her. A real friend is Louise — one who can suit her mood to yours and cheer you when you need it. When you see a twinkle lurk- ing in her black eyes be prepared for a surprise. HAZEL BROWIV Tunkhannock, Pa. Rurban Club; Out Door Club. Red hair and blue eyes are Hazel ' s and the kind of generous big-heartedness that nearly always goes with them. She has a little dry humor all her own, and one of the sweetest dispositions in M. S. N. S.. which is saying quite a lot. Try as hard as she can she can ' t help but get wonderful marks. Best of luck to our patronizing Hello Girl . LILAH BURDICK Montrose, Pa. Art Club; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A. She ' s a good sport and we know that we can de- pend upon her. She means business as she Rus- sells to and from her classes. She ' ll make a good school teacher, but taking care of Wells on the farm would be nicer. ON A BUHCESS Brooklyn, Pa. Ona is one of the quiet sort of girls about whom we hear little. Yet underneath it all we see a secret. She is very studious, but she enjoys a good time as well as any of us. Although you have been with us only a short time we feel that there is a bright fu- ture in store for you and we ' re sure you ' ll make good. 26 ESTHER BURGETT Muncy, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society. A gleam of seriousness and mirth untold, Beneath it all a heart of gold. Helen, where can I find Esther? Ssh! She is in her room preparing sandwiches for a feed to- night after TEN o ' clock. Esther shows fair promise of placing- Muncy on the map. Reserved and stately, she possesses the true qualities of a successful school-marm . She carri,js a very heavy course and works hard, but does not allow herself to become a bookworm. If she finds herself leaning that way she naturally turns to a cross-word puzzle for a change. IRENE BUSH Montrose, Pa. Rene ' Bushy Hiking Club. Rene ' s sweet smile is contagious and all who ob- serve it immediately become her friends. She ap- pears to be a very quiet girl, but wait until you know her. She is a memLer of the Hiking Club and is as faithful in this as in everything else she undertakes to do. How about those early morning hikes down by the creek, Rene? Do you life coffee? Good luck to you, we all know you will succeed as a school marm. LISLE CARR Wyalusing, Pa. Smiling and happy is our fair-haired Lisle. She is always busy, but we never hear a grumble from her. Lisle has fulfilled her duty splendidly in the Train- ing School , so we know she has found her life work and will be successful. JENNIE CHRISTIE Y. W. C. A. Arnot, Pa. Arnot must have some attractions for its repre- sentatives in Mansfield State Normal, as they are unable to stay away more than five days. We won- der why? We also wonder why she is always so anxious for 9:30 p. m. to come. In spite of all this we love Jennie and because of her pranks and witty remarks, no one will ever feel blue when she is around. We wish Jennie the best of luck and success as a teacher. DjK «h - r l - ■ .1 jj — ¥ B 1 B i .. H HBi MnksK- . :J 27 CRYSTAL CLARK Horseheads, N. Y. A lass she is so wondrous sweet, As fair as she you ' ll seldom meet! Her disposition ' s very rare And one as nice you ' ll find nowhere. ' Tis Crystal — what an appropriate name? ' In Training- School she won her fame. The little children won her smile And in their hearts — and ours — She ' ll stay awhile. JUDITH COLBASSONI Old Forge. Pa. Judy Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society; Hiking Club. This brown-eyed lassie hails from Old Forge, and is forever singing its praises. We think Judith has chosen the proper thing for her Mfe ' s profession. From all appearances she will make a very dignified school teacher. She is ever ready to express her opinion on all occassions, in all places, at all times, and it is not uncommon to hear some member of her group say, We ' ll now hear the critic ' s report. Success to you. Judy. MARION COLVIN Dalton, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A.; Athletic Club. Marion has a ready smile for everyone; no mat- ter where you meet her she is always cheerful and friendly. She is studious and never neglects her les- sons, but at the same time she does not let work in- terfere with pleasure. If you get lonesome or need help, call on Marion, she is ever ready to help you. We all think Marion has chosen the proper career and wish her success and happiness in the future. IRENE CRON Rome, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Art Club. Irene is our dream girl . She constantly dreams of monasteries , but we can truthfully say that she is one of the most patient, diligent and good-natured pals anyone ever had. We all know she has made a resolution to be a successful teacher, but how can anyone keep a resolution in the face of a sparkler. 28 CORA CULVER Moriah, N. Y. Hiking Club. Cora ' s pleasant Good Morning is an inspiration to us all. She always speaks a kind word for every- one, is filled with pluck, wit, and enthusiasm, and is ever striving for and reaching the highest standards. We are sure that she will be a very capable teach- er but fear that some one will soon captivate this golden-haired, fair young miss. HELEN CRUIKSHANK Wyoming, Pa. Cruik , Cruikie Athenaean Literary Society; Dramatic Club. Wyoming, Pa., does not bear the distinction of being near any place in particular, but it does bear the distinction of being the birthplace of Cruikie , who arrived in M. S. N. S., September 10, 1923. She presents a personality wherein is apportioned agreeably a strain of seriousness and wholesome deviltry. Cruik ' s sunny nature is composed of a combination of characters which are as refresh- ing and stimulating as they are rare; because of this she is on very friendly terms with the opposite sex from across the arcade , which fact, is the cause of her being regarded with envy by many. Best of luck in whatever vocation you choose to fol- low, Cruikie . IDA CURREN Glee Club. Gillett, Pa. Innocent Dainty Admirable Congenial Unaffected Refined Reserved Exemplary Natural That ' s Ida. DORIS DEARIE Dickson, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society. There is an old adage that big things come in small packages . This seems to be true with Doris. I wonder why it is that everyone who hails from Dickson is so small and the more they come the smaller they get? Although so little, Doris is full of pep and one very often hears her cheery voice echoing down the hall. May her voice always be as cheery as it is now. She has the best wishes of the Class of 1925. 29 DORIS DIEHR Wellsboro, Pa. Doris is always in a hurry, but still she takes time to give each one a smile and greeting. We are sure that Doris will make a great success as a teacher. JAMES DONLIN Meshoppen, Pa. Jimmie Band; Y. M. C. A.; Football Reserves; Am- bulance Corps; Carontawan Board; Basketball Re- serves. Jimmie ' s cheerful, happy-go-lucky, humorous spirit gets him by, any place, any time. His winning smile and witty line make him popular with every- one, but especially the fair sex. Jimmie has won many friends in Mansfield and especially one who comes from Galeton. He always delighted us with his tenor voice in the Harmony Quartette. We can- not say enough good things about Jimmie in such a limited space. Well — here ' s wishing you success in your new undertaking. GRACE DORFLINGER White Mills, Pa. Browser Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Rur- ban Club; Hiking Club. Did some one say quiet and dignified? She is everything else but. Who could see that twinkle in her eye and ever suspect a thing like that? She is a loyal pal. — once a friend, always a friend. In fact she is just the kind of a girl you can ' t forget. HELEN IRENE DRINK WATER Williamsport Pa. Helen suddenly decided to come to Mansfield to take up special work in primary teaching. Now she wishes that she had come sooner — I kinda like it up here. (Yes, you ' ll like it here, Hslen.) She enjoys everything and lets the world know it by her eager responses to activities, her sense of humor, and her happy disposition. 30 PHENNIE ECKEL Clark ' s Summit, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club. Phennie is a quiet, demure, little miss, but she possesses a fund of dry humor, and there is a twinkle in her dark eyes which convinces us that she is not always so quiet. She has a dignity and charm of manner that will help her in her teaching. The training school kiddies like Miss Eckel . Phennie is a girl we would all like to know better. OLIVE ELY Brooklyn, Pa. Ely Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A ; Cecelian Glee Club. Olive! What ' s in a name? That doesn ' t sound a bit like her. She isn ' t a drab person at all. Per- haps a violet, but certainly not the colorless fruit of the native Spanish tree. Her refined manner and talents have made her a favorite among all of us We always know when Olive is aliout. Her wonder- ful personality seems to radiate. EDNA EXTROM Galeton, Pa. Ed or X Athletic Association; Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A . Edna is industrious and ambitious, but jolly just the same. Although she came to us as a Senior, we are glad to claim her as a member of our class and wish we might ha e known her longer. ELIZABETH FARRELL Moosic, Pa. Elizabeth joined the merry throng of knowledge seekers just a year and a half ago. Who could help but like this maiden shy, who is loved by most and admired by all ? She is always a participant in fifth floor feasts and spreads. But while she is a studious and persevering little Miss , she can be just as full of fun and mischief as the rest of us. Fifth floor can vouch for that. I might write a book on Elizabeth ' s loving- dispo- sition, but will conclude by saying, Good Luck and Success from your classmates of ' 25. 31 Wilkes-Barre, Pa. PETER FLOSSER Pete Band, Baseball, Y. M. C. A. Pete came to us from Wilkes-Barre and is always good-natured and always ready to play for gym dances. He is a good trap drummer and his willing- ness to play has given many of us a good time. He has a fine sense of humor, that is always working and especially along the poetical line. We some- times think Pete made a mistake in not selecting the Music Supervisor ' s course instead of the regular course, but his success as a pedagogue is certain and we wish him all kinds of luck. MARIE FRANZ Shinglehouse, Pa. Outdoor Club. Does Marie believe that Silence is golden? Seemingly, because she is rather quiet, but those large l)rown eyes will tell you differently. We do not know, but just ask her room-mate and some of her friends? One thing we know, Marie is good- natured and ready to help if nee led. Another one of Marie ' s qualities is her belief in attending to her own liusiness. She does not believe in gossip liut what she knows she keeps to herself. We hojie she will be successful as a teacher as she has Icen during her two ve;irs at M. S. N. S. MARION FRIENDS Mansfield, Pa. Marion is one of those dark-haii ' ed, calm, quiet maidens who always looks on the bright side of life Sle never neglects her work for pleasure. However, Mai ' ion can enjoy a jolly good time as well as the rest of us. To her we would say: As half in shade and half in sun This world along its path advances, Mav that side the sun ' s upon Be all that e ' er shall meet thy glances. NAOMI JUNE GALLi;P Forty Fort, Pa. Naomi Dramatic Club, Rurban Club, Hiking Club, Emer- sonian Literary Society. Black curls topiied by a I ' akish red tam o ' shanter, a pair of deep, dark eyes, love, laughter, happiness, a flurry of snow — and you have our Naomi June. That is — you think you have. Give us a touch of flame — or again, a blossoming apple tree — and the picture changes. And why mt ? For this lady is of many moods known to le changed by certain letters in Box 130. Naomi favors Ji ' s Jo ' s — . Talented; gifted with a personality; gay; im- pulsive; vivacious; slender as a weed; even Daphne would be envious. Yes, this is our Naomi as we love her. 32 MARY GANEY Arnot, Pa. Outdoor Club; Rurban Club. An odd mixture of seriousness and fun is this fair miss. Reserved and rather shy at first, but once she becomes your friend she is always your friend. She is fond of a good time and very often Mary ' s comical expressions cause laughter and mirth after ten p. m., when quiet is supposed to reign. She has been successful in her training school work and we are sure she will be successful as a teacher. LILLIAN GARDNER Gibson, Pa. Did you ever see Lillian without a smile ? Her cheerful disposition is an inspiration to us all. Her pluck and perseverance cannot be over-estimated. There can be no doubt as to her success as a teacher. LUCILE GERNET Columbia Cross Roads, Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary So- ciety. We would like to see Cile some time when she didn ' t have so much to do . She is an earnest student, always gets her work done on time, and yet manages to do many other things not mentioned in the curriculum. We would like to know how she does it. She is one of the steadfast few who prefer to arise a few minutes early rather than to under- go the tortures of a barber ' s chair. Cile is a great giggler, especially after ten o ' clock. DOROTHY GLIDDEN Forty Fort, Pa. Dodie , Doc Art Club; Rurban Club Treasurer; Hiking Club. Dodie — Doc — or Dorothy — as the fifth floor has always known her. Doc ' s a queer combination of grown-up-ness and seriousness plus — never mind. Doc, we won ' t tell! Dorothy favors medicine. We wonder why? And Raphael — and Art. Dodie ' s talents are many and far-reaching, ranging from pianist to artist (gaze upon our Carontawan), even tennis and hiking. A slamming door! Dorothy is off, knickers and sweater and merry blue eyes. When she returns ? Well, Did a good ' ten today, kids! 33 ELSIE GREEN Throop, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club; Emersonian Literary Society. Here is Elsie, one of the many from Throop. We have heard of people who seem quiet, but manage to talk all the time and this just describes Elsie. If you feel hungry, just go to Room 552 and there you are sure to find something to eat. Very fond of movie players is our Elsie, especially Lloyd Hughes . We wonder if she has a Lloyd Hughes at home. MARIE GREEN Coudersport, Pa. Greenie , Cherie Emersonian Literary Society; Outdoor Club. A first impression of Marie is that she is a serious, dignified miss, but when you are acquainted with her you soon change your mind. She ' s a good student — especially fond of literature. Her favorite pastime is reading Byron ' s and con- sulting Webster ' s dictionary. We all know Marie is a cure for the blues, a real pal and a good teacher. We predict a very successful future for Marie. WINIFRED GUMBLE Picture Rocks, Pa. Winnie Emersonian Literary Society; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Winifred is a favorite in both North and South Halls. Her winning smile and cheery greeting are sure cure for the blues . You are always sure of one true friend when you have Winnie for a pal. You can keep nothing in the past, present, or fu- ture from Winnie for — she is our little fortune teller. EVELYN HAKES Mansfield, Pa. Evie Hello Evie! Who ' s Evie? Oh, she ' s that am- bitious girl that gets up so bright and early and walks two miles to school every morning. If you are ever in need of a friend, here ' s one. If you don ' t believe it ask the kiddies in the Training School. Heaps o ' success to you, Evelyn. 34 HAZEL HALLORAN Coudersport, Pa. Outdoor Club; Art Club. Did you say she was dignified? Perhaps she is, but Hazel is always ready for a good time. She isn ' t afraid to work and her pluck and determination have won for her the admiration of her classmates. Hazel is especially fond of history, especially of the reign of Peter the Great. We wonder why? She has made many friends at M. S. N. S. and we hope she will be as successful after she leaves Normal as she has been while here. KATHRYN HANLON Wellsburg, N. Y. Mickey Dramatic Club. Mickey is just five-none, but it ' s quality, not quantity that counts, you know. Jnst try to out do her in a battle of wits and see how far you get. It seems strange that such a lively person could ever stop long enough to study, but whether they ' re gained by hard work or native ability, Mickey ' s marks are always of the best. Even her frequent comments on life ' s little drolleries are always strik- ingly original, the only hackneyed expression we have heard her using is Oh gee, Jo! Besides her insistent search for happiness, the only other great moving power in Mickey ' s life is her love for little children. This last, together with her unfailing sense of humor, will insure her success as a primary teacher. ELLA HARKINS Jessup, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Hiking Club. Coming from the realms of Jessup this happy miss entered the illustrious halls of Normal in the fall of 1923. It was not long until Ella won our hearts and friendship. She has made hosts of friends during her days as our classmate and her wholesome nature and contagious laughter will be missed by all of us. While she is a student and conscientious worker she is always ready for fun and you can count on her to join you in every plan. We predict a very successful future for Ella. FRANCES HARRISON Laceyville, Pa. Fanny Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club. F ' rances is a member of the famous Order of Y. G. of fifth floor, and also one of the illustrious Arabian Knights . She spends most of her time seeking donations for her proposed Orphan ' s Asylum. But do not think from this that she is the old maid type for she loves Art — Art who? 1 35 IRENE HAWTHORNE Canton, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Irene has many R ' ood qualities. Ambition heads the list. Her friends know that behind her serious demeanor there hides more than just a spark of humor. She ' s a sincere friend and a good pal. We look for yreat things from Irene. MRS. MILDRED HAYDEN Mansfield, Pa. This sweet little lady is one of our down town friends. She is about as busy a person as we have in Normal. You just ought to have heard the de- bate in Dr. Doane ' s Health class, January 27, in which she took part. We think she will be very successful in her teaching for she has a pleasing way with the children. FANNIE HELLER Muncy, Pa. Fan Dramatic Club; Rurban Club; Women ' s Student Council; Y. W. C. A. Those brown eyes are something besides good looking for they almost talk. We ' ll never forget Fan for she i s all unusual. Oh. such fear and trembling we had when she invaded the realms after ten o ' clock! If only we could catch her with- out her dignity, we wonder what we would find. Fan is always good-natured, amiable and an all around sport. We predict a bright future for her. CHESTER HINES Miners Mills, Pa. Chet Glee Club; Y. M. C. A.; Basketball. Never in the background but never conspicuous — Chet . Just a hajipy medium, a real good fel- low, full of fun and always ready for a good time. Chet can always be counted on to cut quite a figure both on a basketball court or a baseball dia- mond. Chet has quite an interest in a Stevens and we don ' t mean a hunting rifle either for he does not like hunting — the plot thickens. V. e all like you, Chet , and wish you luck and success. 36 EVA JANE HUGHES Wellsboro, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Rur- ban Club. As quiet as a mouse — but we sometimes wonder what thoughts are hidden back of that thoughtful looking forehead. She ' s studious too — such a conscientious worker you never saw! We wonder how she manages to study so much amidst all the hub-bub, happy-go- lucky atmosphere of fourth floor where so many girls forget their good intentions and go over to the play side. H« re ' s luck, Eve, you certainly deserve it. ARLENE M. IRWIN Coudersport, Pa. Arlie Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. We were denied the pleasure of knowing Arlene in our Junior year, but her charming manner has won many friends for her. Although she seems so quiet and demure in the class room, those who know her will agree that she is fun-loving and always ready for a good time. She is studious, and we are sure that she will be as successful in the future as she has been in the past. TRACY JENNER Montrose, Pa. Montrose contributes this quiet, studious chap. His quiet, refined manner discourages many a resi- dent of North Hall. No, it was not for the consol- ing friendships of North Hall that Tracy came — nor does he allow their pretty eyes, shorn locks, pitiful tears, or wooing smiles to make the least impres- sion on him. No — not at all. His studious habits have won the admiration of his classmates and the respect of the faculty. Business before pleasure. That ' s right. Jenner, you ' re bound to vAn. Here ' s to your success. JULIA JENNINGS Towanda, Pa. Our mild and gentle Julia takes things seriously, but, nevertheless, she has the pluck and courage which will carry her far along the strenuous life of a teacher until other and more personal affairs change her route. We never thought her secretive, but, just what was the matter with the cinnamon buns ? 37 EDITH JOHNSON Genesee, Pa. Hiking Club. Edith always greets us with a smile. She is noted for her sweet disposition, promptness, and perseverance. Endowed with these qualities we are sure she will be very successful in whatever pro fession she chooses. ELISE JUPENLAZ Mansfield, Pa. Jupe Of all fair things Nature has given us: repose is sweetest. If we could be more like you. We are well aware of her keen appreciation of humor. Her winning ways have won the love of the Model School children. One of the best compliments we can give her is to say. If one wants a thing well-done you can trust Elise to do it for you . She certainly has shown the Group One students how well she can entertain. Thus it is that we know she will make a success of her future work. VIOLET R. KEEBLER Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Montoursville, Pa. Violet — most modest maiden as her name sug- gests. Seemingly quiet and reserved yet to her intimate friends a successful comedian — a sure dis- peller of the blues. Her brisk, business-like tone of voice convinces us that she knows what she is talking about. She is a most steadfast and sensible maiden as is proven liy the fact that she never succumbed to the bobbed hair craze. Violet is a successful teacher and will surely be a credit to her profession. FRANCES KELLY Friendsville, Pa. Rui ' ban Club. Frances comes to use from Friendsville. Be- cause she was with us only one semester some of us did net get to know her very well, but all who knew her found her a true friend. Quiet and I ' e- served, yet she always was ready to enjoy fun and help make it. A studious and earnest worker is Frances and an rycell nt te-icher, having a dauntless will that ad- mits no failure. 38 DONNA KIBBE North Bingham, Pa. Outdoor Club; Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Donna is another one of our Potter county girls. We all admire her Auburn hair, but we never tell her so. We hear she is a good teacher and is loved by all the training school kiddies. She is a good imitator and likes to make people laugh. We wish her success in all that she attempts. LORNA KILBOURNE Mansfield, Pa. Cheerful and happy is Lorna. She is always busy but never seems too busy to greet us with a smile. In classes she never fails to answer and is always willing to explain things so as to help others. Dorna will make a splendid teacher, we are con- fident. HELEN KILE Little Meadows, Pa. We feel that Helen is still much of a stranger to us, having been with us only half of the year; however, we feel quite sure that she will be a credit to our class and school. May she have much success. She has the best wishes of the class as she leaves this school to take up her duties elsewhere. NORA KNOWLTON Wellsboro, Pa. Here is a girl whom you simply must know before you can appreciate all her qualities. She is quiet and reserved, it is only to those who have the privi- lege of knowing her well that she will let her real self be known. Willing she is and a very agree- able person. 39 EMORGENE KRESCE Y. W. C. A. Clark ' s Summit, Pa. Yes, she ' s here, but we hear that her heart is somewhere else. They say that her rujm-mate ' s brother has it in his keeping. Is tliis true, Emor- g-ene ? It must be though, because appearances tell us so. We have always noted this pensive, dreamy look, as though you were thinking- of someone afar off. We would advise you to remember thoug ' h that — Woman ' s faults are many Men have only two — Everything they say, Everything they do. before you take any serious steps. Emorgene has a great faculty for friend-making and is loved by all her acquaintances of M. S. N. S. MICHAEL KULICK Mayfield, I ' a. Mike Emersonian Literary Society. His cheerful, happy-go-lucky, humorous spirit get him by, any time, any place (except Dean Cure ' s Eng ' lish class). Mike ' s winning smile and witty line insure him success with both male and female, especially the latter. Here ' s to the lucky woman! ARLINE KUNSMAN Tunkhannock, Pa. We do not know Arline very well, but what we do know is that she is a splendid member of our class. We can always depend on her. Her cheery smile brightens the gloomiest day. Although she confesses that she gets scared in reciting before a class of fellow students, our knoweldge of her ability to teach is assured. Here ' s wishing Arline much success. EMILY LAN A Old Forge, Pa. M Art Club; Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Just look at her picture and we will not need to tell you that she has beautiful dark hair and snappy brown eyes. To those who know only the serious side of Emily, she might seem a dignified school teacher, but behind those long lashes lurks an ex- pression of mischief. How often have we heard the strains of melodious music coming through the corridors on third floor. Her favorite song is, Follow the Swallows Back Home. She has a way of acquiring friends and admirers without any apparent effoi ' t on her part, and we envy hor this ability. 40 RUTH LACEY Campton, Pa. Art Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Ruth is one of our studious, ambitious, dignified girls. When she encounters a new task she does not fi-et about it but goes at it with a vim. Oh, yes, Ruth intends to teach! How long? We hate to get in Dutch, so perhaps you ' d better ask her to translate some of Homer ' s writings. AIMEE LANG Wellsboro, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Yes, Aimee ' s eyes sparkle and shine at everyone. I wonder why she ' s always smiling. There certainly must be some reason for her happiness which always seems to be just bubbling over. She ' s French, too, et elle parle francais beau- coup . Have you ever heard her reel French off by the yard ? If you haven ' t you ' ve missed something. We all hope that you ' ll be as happy and carefree all through life as you are now, Aimee. LEONE LATTIMORE Laceyville, Pa. ' Lone Hiking Club. A buxom maid who is always on top — she rooms on fifth floor, you see. It has always been a strug- gle for her to decide whether to walk up five flights to reduce or to ride up on the elevator to . Her favorite resort is Mutton Brook. ISABELLA LAWSON Wyoming, Pa. Izzy Varsity Basketball; Hiking Club; President Ath- letic Club; Junior High Coach; Y. W. C. A. Izzy is the typical American girl. She is a good spoi ' t and a friend to everyone. In athletics she is a star, and her excellent coaching has helped Junior High win many a basketball victory. Judg- ing by the number of letters she gets, we ' d say she was mighty popular at State, too. Here ' s to Izzy . She ' s pretty to walk with, And witty to talk with. And pleasant, too, to think on. 41 BERTHA LEAVY Montoursville, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary Society. Did some one say quiet? Well, not when you know her. She ' s just as jolly as can be. She never shirks her duties and is rig ' ht on hand when most needed. A mixture of merriment and studiousness. MARK LOVELESS Carontawan Board, ketball. Scrub Football; Tioga, Pa. Varsity Bas- Tioga has every right to be proud of this stal- wart young man. Although he is only a Mark, he has been, and is of great value to our school. We are proud of him as a student and in athletics, and if our expectations prove true, Mark will be a man of whom we will say with great pride some day, Why he went to school at Mansfield while I was there. I knew he would amount to something in the world. It might be interesting to the reader to learn that Mark was named after Mark Anthony — a long time after. IVA LUDLAM Wellsboro, Pa. ' Isaac Although Isaac does not live in the dormitory she is very well known. She is one of those downt ' wn girls who is always on time to seven-forty-flve classes ( ?). We all wondered why it was Iva used to go back home week-ends, but after awhile we found out. We can ' t blame her for that, for who doesn ' t like lots of good eats and a good time ? Here ' s luck to you, Isaac, for we know you are on the road to success. NELLIE MANNING Eldred, Pa. Stub Hiking Club; Glee Club; Athletic Club. With dark brown eyes and hair so sleek. Is Nellie, with her dimpled cheeks; She is always merry and full of fun. And many friends she has won. She talks and talks, but that is human; She likes the boys, but that is woman; A sagacious, energetic lass. She has her failings — let them pass. 42 AGNES V. MASON Canton, Pa. One of the jolliest girls we know is Agnes. Al- though she lives outside the dorm she has many friends in school. She is perhaps best known to the summer students since this is her first winter with us. If you wish to know the truth about any- thing, girls, — ask Agnes. She is very frank and not a believer in flattery. Yes, she is an experienced teacher. We can readily see that by her successful teaching in the training school. ANNA MASON Rurban Club. Sayre, Pa. Another hale, good-natured lass. Miss Mason, Miss Anna Mason is the name frequently applied to her in Ed. Sociology class. If ever Anna you should meet, just perform this little feat: Smile at her one, smile at her two, and if she smiles back at you one great big dimple will appear in the part of her anatomy between her mouth and ear. This dimple serves as her identification card. To see it you need not try hard. Laugh one; laugh two! Thank you Anna — thank you. BERTHA MASON Canton. Pa. Bert Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. ' Tis said that Bert shows her real self to only her best friends, so we would all like to know her better. Few of us have ever heard of her troubles or perplexities — she is ever optimistic and ready for a good time. Her spontaneous giggle is very apt to be contagious. Worry? Not about mere trifles (such as lessons). If you at any time feel the need of a cure for the blues , patronize Room 304 N. H. ESTHER MAUSELLE Laceyville, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Cabinet; Art Club; Glee Club. Esther is a very quiet and dignified young lady, but often lays aside her dignity when she sees fun ahead. Her favorite topics of conversation are va- cation and home. We predict for Esther a brilliant future as a teacher of mathematics. She is a prom- ient member of Y. W. C. A. Cabinet and anyone can see her interest in her work. 43 r ■ MM f- t! MARGARET McCARTHY Corning, N. Y. Peg Rurban Club; Hiking Club. Her snappy ways and sparkling eyes Set many hearts aflame, But had you been along with them Yours would have done the same. Hair — black as a raven ' s wing, and curly ( ? ) as the locks of Nemesis; eyes — dark and sparkling with fun and mischief; manner — pleasing even to the gods who endowed this maiden with her charming personality. All in all — Peg is — well — just Peg, and we wouldn ' t change her. DONALD McClelland Mosherville, Pa. Treasurer of Senior Class; Y. M. C. A.; Football Reserves. Don is the kind of a fellow you can ' t forget. Rather quiet, easy-going, pleasant, handsome, sincere, and, last but not least, ambitious in his studies. From this short description you shouldn ' t fail to get the idea that he is, in every sense of the word, a gentle- man. He has executed his duties as treasurer of our senior class in a very efficient and business-like manner. We heartily thank you, Mr. McClelland, for your services. We hope, Don, that you will never lose your nice, wavy hair, your pleasing personality, cr your men- ory of the class of 1925. We won ' t be able to forget you. HOMER McLAUD Mansfield, Pa. Homer hates Art, It nearly drives him crazy: Perhaps he should try fancy work. And trim it with LACEY. CATHERINE McNULTY Pittston, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Hiking Club. The very pattern of girls . When Catherine entered M. S. N. S. in the fall of 1923 she was at once sighted as the most accommodating and kind- hearted of girls. Noted for refinement and dignity. Catherine is a perfect Senior. Of a naturally studious nature Catherine has de- voted much time to her studies and the fruits of her labor are indeed sweet to her. A thorough sportswoman, a wonderful friend, you have our sincere hopes that you will win life ' s battles as you have won our hearts. 44 HARRIET MERRITT Jermyn, Pa. Dramatic Club; Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Glee Club; Athletic Club. So this, so this is Merritt; Yes, we swear by love, its ' merit ' ; She knows that sleepless slumbers Come oft from noisy blunders; Yet to proctors keen, who ponder, She lifts brown orbs of wonder. There is always something interesting about to happen when ' our Harriet ' enters. Those who have seen her quell with one stern look those Model bairnies doubt not that efficiency as well as a fun- loving nature is hers. Her many friends can ne ' er forget this shining star of Expression. DOROTHY MICHAEL Laceyville, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Dot Glee Club; Art Club. Studious, artistic, and musical is Dorothy. But she has other accomplishments. She is a champion joke-teller and can tell them by the hour. The mystery is when her head is so full of jokes how can she retain so much knowledge? We are sure that life holds much for her because she possesses the qualities that 1 ring success. To know her is to admire her. VICTORIA MOORE Athens, Pa. This maiden is modest and quiet with a dignified manner and a winning way. She always seems happy and busy with something. We are assured her quiet nature will find its niche in the world. AGNES MORGAN Tunkhannock, Pa. Connie Hiking Club. Connie really only joined us in the last year, but we have all learned to like this curly-haired, laughing lady. She has already proven herself a capable teacher. We wonder whether or not she intends to teach for a long time. We doubt it for Seeing is believing ! Connie is very proud. Have you noticed that she considers nothing less than a Duke ? Best of luck to you, Connie, in whatever you at- tempt. 45 MABEL NENNINGER Canton, Pa. Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Yes, just Mabel. She ' s small, but — the best things come in small packages. She ' s quiet, but — still water runs deep. And so ' tis with Mabel. Generous and happy-go-lucky, likes a good time and is always in a hurry. She is not afraid of work. She believes what she believes notwithstanding all arguments to the contrary. She is competent, energetic and thoughtful in all her undertakings. A truer friend or a more loyal companion than Mabel is hard to find. GERTRUDE NICHOLSON Jermyn, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Cabinet; Hiking Club. Shirl is the most romantic sort of a girl one could imagine. Always ready to listen to your troubles, she makes friends wherever she goes. Nicholson is quite carefree — till anyone mentions the color of her hair or the latest movie idol. She raves about both, though usually in opposite directions. You just ought to her that girl play jazz and she can also play the other kind. Shirley, you would probably make a good teacher, but we understand the schools in Forest City are filled and Clarence prefers to live there, so — oh, well. The best of luck to you, Shirl. and here ' s hoping you get lots of romance in life. RUTH NIXON Muncy, Pa. Ruthie Y. W. C. A.; Rurhan Club; Hiking Club. Tho ' little, she is bubbling over with giggles most of the time — and as for being peppy — that ' s our Ruthie. Roguish blue eyes, and jet black hair (which claims no acquaintance with Stacomb) and a striking personality make her so dear to us that we hate to part with her. BETTY NORTH Athens, Pa. Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A. Betty is a regular good sport — ready for hikes, swimming, tennis, or dancing, especially dancing. She certainly can smile, too, and oh! how we envy those pretty dimples; but then, Betty can be serious. You just should see her work when she gets started. We are now wondering, Betty, since you are on such intimate terms with Carl just how long you will follow your profession. 46 THOMAS O ' BOYLE Miners Mills, Pa. Toby , Tom , Boylee Manager of Basketball Team; Emersonian Liter- ary Society; Y. M. C. A. Tommy has been our Basketball Manager this year. He is another product of the hard coal re- gion, and he has a personality as warm and com- forting as the said coal. Tom is no social lion, but he takes part in his share of the social events. He and the fair sex seem to be on fairly good terms, though he, apparently, doesn ' t have a preference for any one of them. Well, there ' s lots of time yet, Boylee. We wish you the best of luck! ROSE O ' CONNOR Jessup, Pa. Rosie , Rose Emersonian Literary Society; Dramatic Club; Athletic Club. Rosie, Irish ? Faith, yes, and ' tis not for naught that she is a child of the Auld Sod , for her wit is rare. Oh, yes, there are other things. Her dancing for instance — ask any of the inhabitants of South Hall, or North Hall, either. You know, Rosie has one horror — yes — getting thin. Everyone on the campus knows of Rosie ' s special gift. None of us will forget her as Tiki in the Chinese Lantern. Stick to your Irish, Rosie, and you ' ll get by. DOROTHEA O ' NEILL Corning, N. Y. ' Dottle Dramatic Club; Treasurer Rurban Club; Athletic Club; Hiking Club. This tall blonde daughter of the gods is our Dot- tie . Dottie is an all around sport in every sense of the word. And, say, did you ever see her in the swimming pool ? Better yet, did you ever see the swimming pool without her in it? Despite her fail- ing for the water, Dottie ' s a mighty good pal and if you know her you can ' t help but love her. BLANCHE OWEN Wellsburg, N. Y. In her poise was dignity. In her eyes lurked mystery. Who has ever fathomed what lies behind the calm depths of those liquidly dark eyes ? Surely ' tis no common thought, such as we of lesser clay might entertain. But the smile of Mona Lisa was never more baffling, and whoever finds the solution to those slow, all-seeing glances vdll be a very su- perior person indeed. And we might add, too, that even if his reward is no more than a quiet smile, this — from Blanche — will be all sufficient. We wish her every success as a teacher, and we feel con- fident that she will gain it. 47 ELLEN PECKHAM Columbia Cross Roads, Pa. Art Club; Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Here is a girl about whom the phrase to know her is to love her , is very suitable. Her hig ' h ideals are an inspiration to all who know her. Ellen is usually quiet, calm, and undisturbed, but if you wish to see her excited just ask her if she ever takes anything for Granted , how she likes her hair curled, and if slie would like to teach art for her life ' s work. INA L. PICKETT Rush, Pa. Here is to the little Pickett girl who is always ready to give a joke or to take one as well. We wish you the very best there is in life, Ina, and we feel sure with your sunny ways you will succeed. PAUL POWLACK Mongo Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A. Mayfield, Pa. Paul is one of those anthracite region boys that would rather play pool or study than attend social events. He shines when it comes to doing art. Be- ing a good mi.xer, he has gained for himself a large number of friends; but Paul was sweet on so many of the gentler sex that it was hard for him to make a choice. One of his hobbies is to take long hikes by himself. His other ambition, besides teaching, is to become an architect. We wish you all the luck in your new undertaking. ANN PUTNAM Towanda, Pa. Angy Hiking Club; Dramatic Club; Athenaean Literary Society. Every day in every way I get ? and ? Angy is an optimist of the first order; her cheery countenance and contagious smile are everywhere in evidence and her host of student friends attest to her popularity. Though many times enticed into various roguish pranks which often resulted in tack and signs that would cause the average girl to become discouraged. Angy is not sorry that she has stood the tests. She is a hard work- er (?), a good student, and the type of girl who would be popular any place. 48 ELIZABETH RANSOM Kingston, Pa. Libby Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society. Elizabzeth is one of those little g:irls — but, oh, my! How we wish we had her ardor in attacking our work, as well as her sunny, fun-loving; disposi- tion. An earnest and conscientious worker, a just and sympathetic friend, Elizabeth will be successful in whatever she undertakes. Her sense of humor and ever-ready optimism will help her to meet dif- ficulties brightly, and perseverance will enable her to overcome all obstacles. Elizabeth possesses a very pleasant speaking voice as well as a clear, sweet singing voice, and she is known for her gay, bubbling laughter. A splendid character and de- lightful personality has Elizabezth — a friend worth knowing. LOUISE REYNDERS Ulster, Pa. Louise was one of our late arrivals, but her strik- ing personality and abundance of practical experi- ence has won for her a coveted place among us. It didn ' t take us long to know that teaching was the one thing she delighted in doing. Although she is quiet and dignified, she is always readv for fun and a good time. Here ' s success to Louise. LEONE RICHMOND Wellsboro, Pa. Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. Leone lives downtown, but that doesn ' t keep her from early seven-forty-flve classes, except when the alarm clock fails to arouse her from peaceful slum- ber. Faithful to her friends and studious is she, never neglecting her work for pleasure. She is always willing to help her fellow beings in distress. Be- c.TUse of these qualities, Leone makes friends wherever she goes and we are sure she will make a dignified school teacher. LOUISE ROBINSON Brooklyn, Pa. Lou Y. W. C. A.; Atheltic Club. This slender person with the pretty dark hair appears quiet, but just get acquainted with her. She is a typical modern girl and considers life nil if not filled with pep. Always present when there is a chance for a good time. Popular ? Look in the re- ception room and judge for yourselves. Very sincere and dependable. Sure to make a suc- cess at teaching if permitted to remain in that pro- fession, but we believe she has other plans when we see her haunting the post-office to get those Spring- ville letters. i i A T - K , 1 iHi P kjt-: jt- L J Mj? fA. 49 MARJOKIE ROCKWELL Marj. Outdoor Club. Trov, Pa. A bit of the sunshine, a bit of the whirlwind, a bit of the storm — that ' s Marj. to those who know her best. She believes in fun — Oh, yes, but she believes in work as well. She discharges her duties faithfully and enjoys the pleasures of life meanwhile. A real companion. May the best of life attend her. CLARA ROSE Hop Bottom, Pa. Rose Y. W. C. A.; Rurban Club; Athletic Club. This dear personag ' e with her snappy eyes and happy smile who has won the affection of all who know her, lives in a world by herself. A fanciful, light-hearted girl, who is full of pep and always ready for fun. Just go over to the Gym and watch her dance. We know that Clara will make a success as a teacher. Altho she says she is going to teach fifteen years, we believe that after finishing her work in M. S. N. S. she will enter Pratt Institute for a course in home-making. -A wonderful friend and pal. We are fortunate to have known her. HELEN ROTE Williamsport, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club; Athletic Club; Athe naean Literary Society. Helen is an all around individual. If she doesn ' t like something, she tells us immediately, and, strange to say: we like her all the more for her frankness. She is very much interested in Outdoor life, and we often hear her rave about its wonders. We predict a bright future for her. Watch her fulfill our prophecy. STELLA ROWETT Luzerne, Pa. Stel Dramatic Club; Athenaean Literary Society; Art Club; Hiking Club. In the fall of 1923, a short, dark-complexioned lass, the possessor of a wondrous shock of black hair and two dancing brown eyes became a member of the class of ' 25. Her sunny disposition soon made her popular with the students and today we find no one as popular with her class-mates as Stel Ro- wett. Stel is possessed of gay optimism that is contagious; and her ready smile and hearty laughter show that her heart is where it ought to be tho ' when there ' s mischief in the air, she usually makes the clouds and passes the blame along. It has iieen a pleasure to have numbered Stel as a classmate. Her n ' at appearance, affable disposi- tion and points of social etiquette have made her a sought after companion and extreme were the joys of those alile to (l.-iim her as an intimate friend. 50 EMILY RUSSELL Nichols, N. Y. An interesting, lively girl is Emily. She is studious, especially when working out cross word puzzles. She has a dignified and stately look — but up in 542, oh, my! She has been with us but a short time, but she has acquired many friends and ad- mirers without any apparent effort on her part. H ere ' s to her success in her chosen profession. NORMAN SAYRE Plains, Pa. Nero , Droopy Emersonian Literary Society. Norman is a boy from the land of mules and coal. Take a glimpse at his picture and you can imagine how popular he is with the fair sex. He also likes to study some (?). How much? But he is bound to be one of our future pedagogues. DORA SEELY Y. W. C. A. Osceola, Pa. ' Pan Over her cradle the fairies conspired To send the gift she most admired. The marvelous gift of making friends. To the world Dora seems quiet and reserved, but those who know her best find her full of life and real fun. Just look at her impish eyes and you can guess how full of fun she is. When it comes to work she is one of the first in her class without any apparent effort. We are glad to have had her for our friend and classmate DOROTHY SEELY Rurban Club. Academy Corners, Pa. Dark-haired and dark-eyed is our only represent- ative from Academy Corners. She is a very good student as we have all noticed, but when it comes to having a good time she is always present. We are all certain that she will make good in whatever she undertakes, because Dotty has the ability back of her. Good luck to you, all through life. Dotty. 51 KREDA SKVEKN Sayre, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; HikinK Club; Art Club. Quiet — noisy; calm — disturbed; blue, then be- gone, dull care . This is Freda, the girl who laughs so much. Although Freda is full of fun, you should see her in a hig:h collared waist. She is dignity per- sonified. Won ' t she make some teacher? Watch for the results. ELIZABETH SHANER Hughesville, Pa. Betty Emersonian Society; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. A good little girl who came to graduate with a good class this year. She is full of pep and lots of ambition. The more you know of her the better you like her. Although Betty has been with us only a year, we find in her a worthwhile friend. RUTH SHEEN Dimock, Pa. Ruthie Hiking Club; Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Did you say Ruth was quiet? Just tell her a funny story and hear her laugh! Ruth is studious and an all around Earnest woi-ker. Ruth intends entei ' ing the field of teach- ing, but we ' re afraid she ' ll find solitaires mislead- ing. Best of luck to the little girl we all learned to love. New . ' Xlbany. Pa. MARGUERITE SILVARA Clee (nub; Y. W. C. A. Oh, yes; we all love her from the bottom of our hearts. Many little signs would surely have been tacked on the dooi ' s in the old hospital rooms on fourth, if it had not been for Marguerite ' s watchful eye and guiding hand. Because of her various activities along this line, Marguerite never could get to her seven-forty-five classes on time but her recitations always made up for the tardiness. A friend, well, she ' s one of the truest and sincerest friends that a person may have the good fortune to possess. We know that the obstacles she may encounter on life ' s path will be few and her goal will be success. 52 LEONE SMITH Covington, Pa. Toney Emersonian Literary Society. Happy am I, from care I ' m free, Why aren ' t they all contented like me? Toney comes to us from Covington. Her motto is Why worry? She is happy-g ' o-lucky and al- ways bubbling over with merriment. If you ever have the blues, just call on Leone. She never fails to drive them away. LORENE SMITH Mainesburg, Pa. A quiet and studious little lass And quite an asset to our class. Here ' s to Lorene, an all around Normalite . She never shirks her duty. When it ' s work, she ' s right there; and when some one is in need, she is always ready to lend a hand. We predict a bright and prosperous future for our little down town friend and know that some day she will be a very successful school marm. THELMA SMITH Wellsboro, Pa. Smitty Whiz! Bang! and Smitty has landed in your room. You ' re never down-hearted when she is around. And talk! my goodness, just regular volumes flow forth and we wonder where she keeps them hidden. Smitty never bores anyone with her troubles either; she fights them out for herself. Who could be more independent? Smitty wouldn ' t stay at school for a week-end. Oh, no not Smitty. Don ' t you know Wellsboro has a far greater attraction ? We certainly are all jealous of that other fellow. Do you blame us ? VELMA SMITH Millerton, Pa. You may say she is quiet, but you don ' t know her for she is one of the merriest among us. She never fails to greet you with a happy Good Morning and a merry smile. Her manner wins her many friends. Yes, Velma is industrious. If you want to find her just look in the day room and there you will find her studying Children ' s Literature as diligently as ever. We are surely glad to have Velma with us. 53 EDYTHE SNYDER Coudersport, Pa, Emersonian Literary Society; Art Club; Outdoor Club; Y. W. C. A. Did you say Coudersport? Well, you Otto just see our black-eyed little Edythe. She always has a sweet smile for everyone. Whenever she is around we can always be sure of a jolly good time. Industrious ? Yes, she always has her lessons and is also one of our wonderful FVench sharks . We know she will be successful in all she under- takes. WYMA SPENCEU Cecelian Glee Club; Wellsboro, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Fortune has rarely condescended to be the com- jianion of genius. Wyma has proved herself a genius through her work in the Model School. We are sure she will be a successful and efficient school teacher. Wyma is also a worthy friend and classmate. We regi-et very much that she was with us only one semester. FLORENCE STAFF ORD Florence Sayre, Pa. This sweet, demure little girl is from Sayre, and Sayre may well be proud of her. If you ever want to find a girl who is always the same and a friend to everyone — Florence is the one. She is a good grouch dispeller for her wits are always sharpened to tell a suitable joke. Someday we expect to hear that she is a great Palmer Penmanship expert. Practice makes per- fect, Florence. MRS. CARRIE R. STEPHENS Towanda, Pa. Silence is golden — if you can ' t think of some- thing to say, says Carrie. She talks and talks, but what better asset could a school teacher have ? One can never feel blue near her for her jolly good-nature and keen sense of humor make one see the funny side, even in exams. She is faithful to her friends; she studies diligently and is always ready to help anyone in distress. 54 HELEN STEPHENS Carbondale, Pa. Art Club; Hiking Club; Y. W. C. A.; Women ' s Student Council. Speaking of smiles, Helen sure has a winner. She is always right there when there ' s a chance for a good time, but she can work if it is necessary. Like most girls, she is fond of candy, chocolate ice cream and, we hear, — please don ' t repeat it, — of gum She seemed to have great difficulty in deciding whether she liked the 57 varieties best after all. We ' re for you, Helen! Good luck! MARGARET STEPHENS Montrose, Pa. Peg- Glee Club; Hiking Club. Speak of eats and a good time and there you find Peg always doing her share to keep the bunch awake with her jokes and wit. Margaret excels in all her studies, but is especially interested in Art and spends most of her time dreaming over this most entrancing subject and we know that she ' ll make a wonderful teacher of Art . CLARA STEPHENSON Wyoming, Pa. Curley Clara is an ideal school girl. She possesses a rare combination of fun and seriousness. She likes hikes, dances, spreads, and movies. Wherever Emilie is, there one is sure to find Clara, too. These two good-natured lassies , are as Two lovely berries moulded on one stem. She has bobbed hair and is very proud of it, but you cannot blame her for that when you look at the beautiful, brown, shining curls. They are enough to arouse one ' s admiration. Clara ' s ready smile and gay laughter have won her a host of friends who wish her the best of luck in the future. GENEVA STONE Port Allegany, Pa. Stony , Genoeffa Art Club; Y. W. C. A.; Hiking Club. Geneva with her red hair and pleasant smile is sure to make friends wherever she goes. Her aim is Columbia where she will study art and when she graduates Bud Fisher and Norman Rockwell will stand back and look on for Geneva is an artist. 55 ELIZABETH STULL Elkland. Pa. Betty Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Secre- tary Senior Class. Betty is a quiet girl yet always ready for a good time, also a very dignified and studious person as her marks tell us. We wonder if there are more like her in Elkland for we hear that is where she lives. She has much practice along secretarial lines, both in the Senior class and Y . W. C. A. We wonder if she will follow up this work when she leaves M. S. N. S. Perhaps? Who knows? She has been a much liked and competent teacher in the training school, but her best work was in the kindergarten. We expect to hear great things of her in the future. ELIZABETH SWARTWOOD Betty Athletic Club. Elmira, N. Y. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Betty is one of our auburn-haired from Elmira. She is an all around girl, a good chum and an interesting fireside companion. It matters not where you meet her, she is always wearing a bi ' oad smile and she hands them out to all whom she meets. Betty is very ambitious and will surely make a good teacher. AMELIA SZERSZEN Blossburg, Pa. One might think at first that Amelia is very quiet, and rather reserved, but just wait until you get acquainted with her. She is a jolly companion, and a friend worth having. We predict a great future for her in the teaching profession. Here ' s success to you, Amelia. INA TARBOX Lllysses, Pa. She has a dignified and stately look — but. Oh, My! Ina is industrious, ambitious and winning. Al- though she has been with us only a short time, we know she has a habit of having her work well done and we envy her ability. She is popular with everyone and has many friends. 56 MARY TAYLOR Art Club. Rummeriield, Pa. Our Mary is a dear winsome lass, loved by all her acquaintances. Her quiet, pleasant manner wins her way to the hearts of her many friends. She is a student of fine ability, diligent in all her classes and ever ready to enjoy a joke, whether on herself or on her friends. The teaching profession will be greatly improved when Mary joins its ranks. ABBIE M. TICE Mainesburg, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Y. W. C. A. Happy, mirthful Abbie — one of the sweetest girls and truest friends one could wish to know — is al- ways ready to lend a helping hand and offer a cheer- ful word. She is a very earnest worker and posses- ses the qualities of an excellent teacher but we do not think she will always teach. DOROTHY TILBURG Genesee, Pa. Here is a girl who not only can attain and main- tain enviable grades, but manages to enjoy life at the same time. She is rather reserved, but a jolly good friend. We believe she intends to enter the teaching profession after graduation! Here ' s to the best of success. WANDA TYBUR SKI Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Wanda Terese Dramatic Club; Glee Club; Hiking Club. We look before and after. And pine for what is not. Our sincerest laughter With some pain is fraught. Did anyone ever find such elusive combination of feminity as this rare little maid ? Who could find it in his heart to label her with mere words ? Some- times pensive, again wistful, but always and forever a dreamer of beautiful dreams . Superb, aristocratic, little Wanda! Understanding, yet not understood. One of the few whom the gods have smiled upon. To all a true friend, to some, a sister — we call her Wanda Terese, for want of an- other name. 57 NEVA TYLER Montrose, Pa. Hikinij- Club; Athletic Club; Y. W. C. A. Bi ' tttT than grandeur, better than g ' old, Than rank and titles, a thousand fold, Is a healthy body, a mind at ease, And simple pleasures that always please. Sociology, History of Ed., Art, tennis, basketball, — she shines in all. She never shirks a task and is always ready to have a good time. We feel certain that Neva will be a very successful teacher. VESTA WALKER Maiusfield. Pa. Art Club. Vesta is a quiet and studious girl, but those who know her have discovered that she also likes a g-ood time. She always goes about her work with a smile and never grumbles over the tasks she has to per- form. HELEN WALSH Pittston, Pa. President of Hiking Club; Athenaean Literary Society. Smile and the world smiles with you. M. S. N. S. can well boast of having among its throng of knowledge seekers one of the prettiest, daintiest and finest pals . Helen has but one fault; she is too fond of Pitt- ston. When you see that far-away look in her eyes, you may know that she is thinking of some one in that city. Knowing Helen ' s steadfast character and win- ning ])ersonality, we predict for her a successful future. Her departure from Normal will leave a place that will not be easily filled. MARY WEBBER Avofa, Pa. ' Webber Art Club; .athenaean Literary Society; Hiking- Club. Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit. Eyes of Irish blue, dancing with fun, a ready wnt and a keen sense of humor sums up a real American girl tagged Mary Webber , hailing from . voca. Pa. Mary is imbued with a deep respect for those in authority, and conducts herself in a manner that never needs reproof. She is a very agreeable and a very pleasant girl to know, and once you pene- trate her shy and reserved manner, you will find a delightful companion. We rest assured that her unconquerable desire to win will crown her efforts with success. 58 VERNA WESTBROOK Susquehanna, Pa. Vernie Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary Society. Though she wasn ' t with us last year, we feel as if we know Verna very well. She is always willing to sing for us in class and is never at loss for an answer in Sociology. Vernie is preparing to be a Kindergarten teach- er and from the reports of her previous experience in teaching, we know that she will be very success- ful. OLIVE WHITBECK Clarks Summit, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Cabinet; Athletic Club; Hiking Club. Two years ago Clark ' s Summit sent us a big, brown eyed miss. She soon won a host of friends although very bashful AT FIRST. Ask any of the Gang . She is always a good sport and ready for a o-ood time. What about the Marshmallow Toast. Olive ? During her Senior year she also captivated many hearts, including one who won an M . Best of success and happiness, Olive. JULIA WHITE Art Club. Mansfield, Pa. Judy Here we have Judy , but where is Punch ? In the Highlands — for Judy is always singing, My Heart Is In The Highlands, My Heart Is Not Here . A very good pal is Judy, not a bit serious, though she seems very dignified. Although she lived down town, she spent most of her tim in the building where she made a friend of everyone. DOROTHY WILLIAMS Olyphant, Pa. ' Dot She is not big, she is not tall. But she is very kind to all. She never seems to study, And yet she learns it al l. She wears a smile, has a fine disposition In life that is sure to gain her a position. She ' s never downhearted; she ' s never blue, To her classmates and schoolmates, always true. 59 GEORGE WILLIAMS Plains, Pa. Junior Class President. 1924; Senior Class Presi- dent, 1925; Student Council Member, 1924; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet Member; Rurban Club; M Club; Em- ersonian Literary Society, 1924; Varsity Football, 1923-1924; Varsity Basketball, 1924-1925. Here is our Class President, thoroughly liked by everyone because of his earnestness, sincerity and ability. George is our idea of a good fellow, always good-naturetl, studious and willing- to lend a help- ing hand in anything that will benefit the S. N. S. We all know of his good work on the football field, also on the basketball court, and feel sure that Mansfield will have a difficult time in filling his |)lace in the field of athletics. We predict a bright future for him and sincerely hope he never has any trouble with his Hart . Good luck to you, George! WINONA WOOD Wellsboro, Pa. This is Winona, quiet and dignified. She is in- dustrious and goes about her work in a way that will take her a long distance on the path to success. We are glad to have had her as one of our class in the M. S. N. S. STPLLA YOUMANS Wellsboro, Pa. Art Club. The life of the Day Room. Her whimsical humor would amuse anybody. She is an active member of the . rt Club and we hear she has a rare artistic ability. Although Stella does not live in the dormitory she is very well known. She is a good scholar for who of us have not heard her witty answers in class ? The best of wishes to you, Stella, in your teach- ing career, and in life. 60 iiii l ' SENIQFS 61 DANA W. ALLEN Troy, Pa. M Club; Mana.eer Varsity Football, ' 23; Athe- naeaii Literary Society; Rurban Club; Student Council, 1923-1924. His genius was jocular, but, when disposed, he could be very serious — Optimistic, cheerful, learned, with an individuality all his own. Dana is not at all a supporter of that old adage, Variety is the spice of life , as he is quite con- vinced that there is only one in the world. DOROTHY BAKER Nelson, Pa. (ilee Cluli; Music Supervisor; Orchestra. Another Supervisor. If you wonder why Dorothy spends her week-ends at her home town of Nelson, ask her Who ' s Hun ' hes? Like Caesar, she ' s ambitious and would aspire to g ' reat heights in voice. She is second soprano part leader in the Glee Club. If she goes out to teach, which appears doubtful just now, we know she will be a success. DORIS BATES Man.sfield, Pa. Music Supervisor; Quartet; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A.; Orchestra; Emersonian Literary Society. One of the downtown supervisors. She plays the ' cello and has a golden voice which helps to make the quartet a success. If there is an.vthing that has bothered Doris it is time , but she has it nearly conquered now. Her teaching is some of the best that has been done by the Senior Supervisors in the Model School. Doris has a record for doing well whatever she undertakes. Best of luck, Doris. FLORENCE BECKMAN Coudersport, Pa. ■Flo , Becky Outdoo r Club; Rurban Club; Cecelian Glee Club; Women ' s Council. To know her is to love her. Who doesn ' t know Flo from fourth ? She is always a willing helper — especially after ten (Lights). She is always on hand for spreads and the one to whom the flashlight is entrusted. Ever jolly, witty, and good-natured is this efficient mem- ber of the Student Council. Flo is ambitious and will make a very successful French teacher. We exnect some day she ' ll be able to babble French like Man- ser himself. Flo has made hosts of fiiends who wish her the best o ' life. i 62 REXFORI) BENNETT Montrose, Pa. ' Rex hi Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Band; Ambulance Corps. Here he is — the offieal Rexford that lives way up I on the observation tower of South Hall where it ' s |. ' so nice and quiet (???). It couldn ' t help but be(?). I Rex is one of the original Band men and those trips I to Strouds, Bloom, and the rest would have been I I ' flat failures if he hadn ' t been along. I; Rex is an all round good sport, and a true friend. I ' M We know that you ' ll be a success as a teacher. Rex! i EVA BERDANIER Knoxville, Pa. i Eva , E Outdoor Club; Rurban Club; Y. W. C. A. The flash of her keen, black eyes Forerunning the thunder. This exactly describes Eva. Her motto is Play, then work (?). We heard she liked our school so very well she didn ' t leave the campus for three weeks. For all Eva ' s mischievousness, she pulls the high marks and really can study. She is ever seen with Flo— they are better known as the Siam- ese Twins. We predict a bright future for Eva, and wish ; her heaps of success. MARION BISBEE Susquehanna. Pa. Penny i Orchestra; Glee Club; Art Club; Music Super- visor. ' Marion is another of our talented supervisiors, but we fear that her love for agriculture will some- what interfere with her brilliant career. Marion is very lighthearted and cheerful. You may know she must be happy for she is always smiling, thus she has gained manv friends. We shall always remember Marion ' s perfect reci- tations and we know she will make good next year. MINNIE CAPALOWITZ Blossburg, Pa. Outdoor Club; Emersonian Lilei-ary .Society. She ' s really just a dear. And when she ' s nice, you want her near; But, O, Boy! On a peevish streak. She makes a raging storm look weak. She ' s just chuck full of the spice of life. And she ' s going to make a charming wife. For a space of time she may be teaching. But the matrimonial goal she can ' t help reaching. 63 VAUGHAN CARPENTER Lawremeville, Pa. Red , Carp Varsity Football, 1922-23-24; Treasurer M Club; Y. M. C. A.; Athenaean Literary Society. Red is known as the quietest fellow in the school, but nevertheless he has a host of friends who wish him success in everythino- he undertakes. We often wondered why Red was so popular in North Hall, but after hearing some fifty remarks about his clever dancing , we have given up won- dering. Perhaps a good reason for Red ' s popularity is that he wears a gold football, merited by three years of hard, brilliant work on the gridiron. Keep U]) the good work. Carp! Mainesburg I ' a. HAROLD CHAMBERLAIN Abe Athenaean Literary Society, President, ' 24- Rur- ban Club; Men ' s Glee Club; S tudent Council, ' ' 24-25. So now ' tis ended, like an old ' s wife ' s story. A friend, as well as a student. Well can the name, Honest Abe be a))i)lied to him for that is what oui- three vears at Normal have proven him to be. His amliitions seem to be along the lines of oratory and we are not so sure but he has chosen wisely. Success is the sincei ' e wish of voiii ' classmates! JAY CHURCH Carontawan Board 1924-25. LHysses, Pa. Jay spends a good deal of his time in reading and studying, but he really wouldn ' t have to, for with his closely trimmed Van Dyke he will look leained enough to obtain and hold the most dignified of positions. Even now he holds a very elevating job. Jay is talented in many ways and we ' ll never for- get how realistic he looked as Sir Walter Raleigh at the Hallowe ' en dance, or as the magician at the Faker ' s vaudeville. Keep the dignity and the Van Dyke. Jay. and the rest will be easy. RAYMOND C00LID(;E Wellsboro, Pa. Ray President Council, ' 25; Vice President, ' 24; Mem- l)er, ' 23; Athenaean Literary Society; Caotain Varsity Football, ' 23-25; Rurban Club; President M Club. Ray is a regular fellow, the kind we all enjoy but seldom meet. His big business this year has been to instruct the green and timid Junior in the ways which they should tread and thus to make them polished, refined and congenial fellows. Well — he had a big job, but Ray proved himself capable in coping with the situation. We feel success has been his and with best wishes all we say is: Mav it continue, Rav! 64 ELIZABETH CUSTER Lancaster, Pa. ' Beebe Orchestra; Band; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A.; Music Supervisor. Who is Beebe ? Who is she That all the swains commend her, That heaven and grace did lend her, That she might be admired. One is immediately impressed by Elizabeth — her attractiveness coupled with her radiant personality make a combination which few can resist. She is most competent. Her activities range from the renderings of an organ solo to the planning of our future home. Accept our heartiest congratulations, Beebe , and our sincerest wishes for your happi- ness. BERNICE DECKER Clark ' s Summit, Pa. President, Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary So- ciety; Glee Club, ' 22-23. Bernice is a very conscientious student, always making it her policy to first work before playing. Bernice is faithful and always willing to do her part in any of the activities of the school. She appre- ciates a good time and any kind of wholesome fun. She has proved an efficient and well-loved Presi- dent of the Y. W. C. A., and many friends wish her success through life. KATHRYN DORSETT Mansfield. Pa. Art Club; Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary So- ciety. Of Kathryn, nay, who can tell The virtues that in her dwell ? She ' s coy, her cheeks bloom fair in youth, Sincere her thought, studded with truth. A third group member of whom we are proud, a friend that will endure throughout the years. Not high in scholarship alone but admirable in many ways, we can easily picture her a high school teach- er, but we jes ' kin ' a wonder how long she ' ll remain in the circle of ole maid school marms . Well, Old Dear , life lies before you, wherever you go take with you our love. HELEN DOUD Mansfield, Pa. Glee Club; Orchestra; Music Supervisor. Helen has been with us for three years and how much we all like her with her quiet ways and happy disposition. She lives downtown, but is well known in the dormitory. Helen plays the violin, piano, and dances beautifully. Have you ever noticed her at gym socials ? But all this does not describe Helen with her auiet smile, black hair and eyes and then her twin. One person attempted it but had to write a whole song with two verses. 65 MARGARET DOUD Mansfield, Pa. ' Marg Glee Club; Orchestra- Quartet; Music Supervisor. Margaret and Helen look so much alike that it ' s always a problem to tell Who ' s Who . But if you hear music at gym social which makes you feel that you must dance, then that ' s Margaret at the piano . She dances and plays equally well, but. Oh! how we all love to dance when she is playing the piano. This is not all she can play, however, her pipe organ recital was a real treat. With her talents and her aliility to make everyone like her, we know Margaret will be a success at whatever she may undertake, and we expect to hear good things of her as a super- visor. ETHEL ELY Montrose, Pa. President of Student Council; Y. W. C. A.; Athe- naean Literary Society. Through the responsibilities and self-sacrifice of her office as President of Student Council, Ethel has efficiently and successfully performed her du- ties and won the admiration of all who know her. How often we have seen that dreamy, far-away look in her eyes! Behind it all lies hidden sweet thoughts that only one can share. But whatever her future may be we know that the three years she has spent in achieving the knowledge of the Home Economics Course will not have been in vain. ORLANDO ENGLISH Elmira, N. Y. ' Orla Gospel Team; Y. Cabinet; Vice President Senior Class; Student Council. Orla is one of those young men who went forth from old Mansfield practically every Sunday in the year and delivered a message in the nearby churches. We can be justly pround of our Gospel Team with such a leader as he. As a teacher he is a success and the school that gets him will be mighty lucky. Many a time has South Hall all settled back on its foundations after soaring up in the clouds when Orla and the Council are on the job. Orla was oi ' iginallv a Pennsvlvanian, but somehow he moved til New York State. MARY EVANS Scranton, Pa. Dramatic Club; Y. W. C. A.; Outdoor Club; Em- ersonian Literary Society. Oh, what a pal is Mary. This little maiden with the snappy black eyes is just brimming over with fun and pep. We wonder how long Mary will last as a Domestic Science teacher (?). But we know she will be successful for underneath this happy-go-lucky, fun-loving dis- position lies seriousness. Here ' s wishing you suc- cess, Mary. 66 GERTRUDE FRENCH (P. G.) East Smithfield, Pa. Glee Club; Athletic Club. She is gentle, she is shy, But there ' s mischief in her eye. Gertrude had many thrilling adventures driving her brother ' s red racer home. She liked M. S. N. S. so much that she returned for a post graduate course. We are glad that she chofe tlie ear li!25 to complete her course. We wonder why the great interest in the mail ( ? ) The best of luck to you! PAUL GARDNER Stanley, N. Y. Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Gospel Team. A true friend is forever a friend. The more you know of him the better you like him. Paul is studious, conscientious, and industrious. He has taken active part in all school and town activities which represent the religious phase of life, proving himself very efficient as a speaker on the Gospel Team. All of us are very certain he will make good in whatever he undertakes because he has the ability and also the ambition. What this country needs is a real man for every job and so as Paul leaves the M. S. N. S. our minds can rest contented, for as he has sown so shall he reap. ULNA GOODALL Mansfield, Pa. Goody Glee Club; Band; Orchestra; Gospel Team. Goody is one of those immortal Red and Black Serenaders, in fact, he is the founder and owner. We sure will miss him next year. Whether it is the insurance business, radio, movies, jazz or music. Goody is a whiz at all of them. He is one of the few married men of the class. In fact, he has a family that he can be proud of. Many a time has a commotion been stopped by him — when he blew his little time whistle. Oh, yes, you ' ll tind that Goody is one of the best referees in this part of the country. More power to you, Goody, in all your lines of work and our last wish is that you shall live all the days of your life. CLIFTON HARKNESS Mansfield, Pa. ' Doc A downtown student is Doc , but nevertheless he is present at all our social activities and is right at home wherever he is placed. Doc is noted for his humorous nature around school, and all can enoy a hearty laugh when he is present. He possesses latent possibilities of becom- ing the second Shakespeare. His easy smile and pleasing personality have won him many warm friends. Here ' s luck and best wishes to vou. Doc. 67 EVA HEPLAR Hegins, Pa. Art Glut; Y. W. C. A. They say she is quiet and dig ' Tiified , yes, until you know her, then you find that she is full of fun and always in for a good time. Besides her fund of wit and humor her loving disposition has reserved a place for her in the hearts of those who Ivnow her. Eva puts her whole soul into everything she un- dertakes and she will make a successful Domestic Science teacher. ILA HESS Westfield, Pa. •Ila Belle- Emersonian Literary Society; Y. W. C. A.; Student Council; Rurban Club; Latin Club. Three years we ' ve known her. This sweet little Miss, The pride of North Hall, Well, I should say yes . Ila cei ' tainly has picked the honors and knowledge from the highest branches of that tree called suc- cess. She says that she wants to be a great Latin and F rench teacher. Here ' s luck to our star lin- guist. RUTH KOHLER Gaines, Pa. Rudy , Fritz , Topsy Glee Club; Supervisor; Orchestra; Art Club. A friend in need is a friend indeed. When you feel blue go to Rudy and she will smooth the wi-in- kles from your furrowed brow. Her favorite phrase is, Come and sit down and we ' ll talk things over. Ask her what things . A good song is worth a dozen speeches, that ' s why Ruth insists on composing operas, comic and other- wise. Besides being a Music Supervisor, Ruth has won- derful talent along the line of art. Her posters would be a credit to an Art school. We all wish her the greatest success in any or all of the lines of work which she may undertake. ANDSIEDEL Ransom, Pa. Y. W. C. A.; Athenaean Literary GERTRUDE Rurban Club Society. She shines in Latin, this little lass. She likes constructions best; But whether in Latin, French, or Math. She ' s bound to lead the rest. Gertie intends to be a nation-wide known Latin teacher. Oh! yes and she ' ll succeed, and, without our best wishes, hut because we have enjoyed her so much for the last three years we extend them just the same. 68 FLORENCE LORD Waverly, N. Y. Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society; Hiking Club. Florence is a quiet, demure Home Economics stu- dent. She is always agreeable, very conscientious, but her friends know how much fun lies beneath her quiet outward appearance. Her seams are fine and very true, Her art is wondrous rare. She cooks some things, so good, and too She works without a care. IRENE LORD Waverly, N. Y. Y. W. C. A.; Emersonian Literary Society; Hiking Club. Not stepping o ' er the bounds of modesty. Here is to Florence ' s twin, a slender, dark-haired maiden, who may seem quiet, but who really is full of fun when one knows her . She is an all-around girl, a good chum, and an interesting companion. She is to Le praised for her perseverance. We know she will be a conscientious teacher and we wish her much success. EDWIN MacBLANE Mac Morris Run, Pa. Ed. Football Team; Y. Athenaean Literary Society; M. C. A. This young Scot possesses all the excellent qual- ities of both the Scotch and Irish without any of their bad ones. This is a combination that makes him one of the most popular men in South Hall. We have no fear for his future. It must be a hard place indeed where he could not get along. His popluarity with the men is second only with that of the women. Maybe this can be accounted for by the fact that he has not yet succumbed to the charms of any particular one of them (?). RACHEL MATHEWS Covington, Pa. Rake Music Supervisor; Vice President Glee Club; Or- chestra; Dramatic Club; Emersonian Literary So- ciety. The group of Senior Music Supervisors would be incomplete without our harmonious Rachel, but we do know that harmony and Miss Alchin must have taken most of her time. We always see Rachel with a book. Reading is her hobby and she surely gains something by it. Rachel is very talented and is a very good teacher. We expect to hear many good reports of her next year. 69 ELLEN MILLER Hikins Club; Athletic Club. Lake Ariel, Pa. Of manners quiet — affections mild. Attractix e ? Yes — brown eyes, wa y hair and an ever winning smile. She chose the Domestic Science Course and to it she is well .suited for she has jMoied to be a very capable worker. Her enthu- siasm in tennis, tobo ' aanninu;, skiing, and skating won for her the Mark . FRANCIS MITCHELL Elkland. I ' a. Shang , Mitch Varsity Baseball, lyj.Vl . ' ' ); M Club; Basketball, 1923; Athenaean Literary Society; Y. M. C. A. This is Shang. Notice that studious look and you will agree that America ' s foremost pedagogue has not yet been discovered. Shang is the personification of that well-dressed look . Although he has sworn no member of the fair sex has attracted his atten- tion, we think there is an exception to this state- ment. Shang is always out foi- a good time and generally succeeds in having it. Mansfield loses a fine fellow and a good baseball man when he carries off the sheepskin . JOSEPH O ' HARA Corning, N. Y. ' Joe , Ned Varsity Baseball (3) 192: -25: Varsity Basket- ball, 1924-25; M Club; Y. M. C. A.; Ciirontawan Board; Athenaean Literary Society; We predict a great future for this young peda- go.gue because of his success and popularity in the Junior High School. These same excellent quali- ties assert themselves in Athletics. The basketball and baseball teams will surely feel his loss n ext sea- son, as will North Hall. We feel sure that some time in the future we will have the occasion to say with pride that we once went to school with Ned . WILLIAM O ' HARA Corning, N. Y. Varsity Baseball (3); Captain Varsity Basketl all, ' 25; M Club; Carontawan Board. This cheerful, happy-go-lucky son of Erin gets away with anything he undertakes. When a seem- ing difficulty arises he passes it by lightly and is always ready for something- more difficult. He has hung up a record in athletics as well as in his studies that will be the goal for aspiring Mans- field students in the future. A reason for this remarkable success is due to the fact that North Hall has held but FEW attrac- tions for Bill . 70 WII LIAM PEARSON Blossburg, Pa. ' Bill Athenaean Literary Society. Bill is one of our big boys. He has all the good nature that goes with fellows of his size, but he also has a mind to correspond with that body. Bill is a conscientious student with all that implies. His grades in Latin and Math will prove this true. Bill is not forward, neither is he retiring, and those of us who know him best know he can appreciate a joke and thoroughly enjoys a good time. ■Take him for all in all, he is a man. MARGUERITE PRYOR Mansfield, Pa. Here ' s to good-natured Marguerite, a girl from downtown — or rather from out-of-town, for she lives a mile and a half out of town on the road to Tioga. She pluckily walks to school — except when she can get a ride (?). Her friends say she is radical in her views but — we ' ll take a chance, Marg ' uerite. We only wish she lived in the building where we could get to know her better. It is said that Marguerite is a good student, a fact which may well be believed. We wish her good luck and best of success and happiness in her fu- ture life. JULIA ROGERS Emporium, Pa. Judy Glee Club; Athletic Club; Emersonian Literary Society; Carontawan Board. Judy is another one of the Home Economics stu- dents and a particularly capable and efficient one. She has many admirers and we hope she chooses the right one in due time. In spite of the many unusual incidents in her career at M. S. N, S., Judy has managed to retain a calm and easy going manner at which most of us marvel. She is always ready to help out in trouble, wheth- er it ' s to write a poem, make us something good to eat, or to put across a stunt or a good time. LEONARD ROUPP Liberty, Pa. ' Len Athenaean Literary Society; Rurban Club; Stu- dent Council, 25; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 24. This blithe young man hails from Liberty . Just as the Liberty Boys of ' 76 made history in the past, this Liberty Boy will make history in the future. The coming generations will no doubt thrill at the stirring accounts of how this chap entered the war against illiteracy and bombarded the works with his New, Modern and Improved Mcthous of Education. Best wishes, Len ! 71 HUGH SEELYE Tut Y. M. C. A .; Rurban Club. Mansfield, Pa. His nickname is Tut , but he is in no way con- nected with the famous king. The resemblance simply isn ' t there. Few thing ' s worry him. When things go wroig. he merely lets nature take its course, and nature usually does. He has no bad habits, such as studying or playing saxophones at night, and he is not a lover of the fair sex ( ? ? ? ? ). Thus we have described Hugh. UOHDAN SHLANTA Mayfield, I ' a. Music Supervisor; Orchestra; Glee Club. He is a man with a heart and a smile That makes this bubble of life worth while. Bohdan is the good looking young concert-master in the Orchestra. An artist on the violin, he de- lights with his gift. He can sing and dance and how we can prance to the strains of his fiddle in the Gym socials. A student of whom M. S. N. S. is praud. We predict a brilliant future for him. RUTH SHUMWAY Wellsboro, Pa. Outdoor Club; Glee Club; Y. W. C. A.; Orchestra; Emersonian Literary Society; Music Supervisor. Ruth is a blonde and as light-hearted as she is fair. When you first know her you might judge her to be bashful, but this impression won ' t last long. Ruth loves to have something to giggle about and always is ready to laugh at something humor- ous, with one exception; just at examination times. She will be remembered by many of the girls as the one who wielded such a capable baton at Y. W. meetings. Playing the violin is Ruth ' s hobby, and she does it very well, too, but with all her work and interests she always has time to be a friend to anyone. EDWARD SMITH Wellsboro, Pa. ' Ed President Athenaean Literary Society; Y. M. C. A.; Gospel Team; Rurban Club; Student Council. Ed. is one of those fellows who has much to do and does it. He doesn ' t believe in working after the ten o ' clock gong at night, but between five o ' clock in the morning and ten o ' clock at night he puts in seventeen hours of distance run . Doing a large amount of outside work, standing hiih in scholarship, he still does not refuse to work as President of the Lit Society or as speaker on the Gospel Team. Ed. has that good common sense and determina- tion that commands the respect of every person who re:illy knows him. 72 CARRIE SPENCER Towanda, Pa. ' Carrie Mae Rurban Club; Art Club; Hiking Club; Athenaean Literary Society. She loves to work, she loves to play, This modest maiden, sweet. Though you scan our Carontawan thru and thru. You ' ll find her hard to beat. Although Carrie Mae has spent one-sixth of her life roaming the halls of M. S. N. S. and pursuing that elusive thing called education, she still declares that she prefers Mountain Lake. We ' ll wager there are more attractions there than a mere expanse of water, but even Solomon was known to have been mistaken. Never mind, chilluns , whoever captures Carrie Mae carries a gold mine with him and a mighty good pal. MAURICE STARKEY Mansfield, Pa. Music Supervisor; Men ' s Quartet; Men ' s Glee Club; Orchestra. Although he is a down town student, Maurice is always ready to help in our school activities. His ' cello playing is a big help in the orchestra. Music is his chief hobby; he is an artist at the piano, and his singing is a delight. Another musician of whom M. S. N. S. is proud, we expect big things of Maurice. PAUL STEVENS Montrose, Pa. Steve Music Supervisor; Glee Club; Orchestra; Band; Editor Carontawan; Head Cheer Leader (3). Steady, easy-going Steve, never a care, never a worry, that ' s Steve, to a T . We always find Steve ready to help in our school activities. Yes, and by the way he is the pep section of the Red and Black Serenaders . His viewpoints are not so limit- ed as most of ours so when a seeming difficulty arises, he simply says Pay no attention and hunts for something more complicated. Steve possesses two things which make for suc- cess, common sense and humor. Good luck, Steve . MYLES STORCH Troy, Pa. Athenaean Literary Society; Rurban Club; Y. M. C. A.; M Club; Varsity Football; Ambulance Company. Still water runs deep , but hardly as deep as Myles ' bass voice echoing up and down the corridors of South Hall. When it somes to football, Myles stars. He has been a good friend to all and we are glad to have him graduate with us. We wish him suc- cess in his field of endeavor. 73 RENA TERRY Terry Brooklyn, Pa. Glee Club; Rurban Club; Outdoor Club; Dramatic Club; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew That one small head could carry all she knew. Knowledge is power , is certainly proven in our business-like and intellectual Terry . There seems to be no limit to her accomplishments, as is shown in her ability in Home Economics, Music and Social activities. To those who are not intimately acquainted with her she appears dignified and reserved, but her fun- loving disposition is fully displayed in many ways to her immediate friends. Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Glee Club; Women ' s LEONA THOMAS Art Club; Dramatic Club; Quartette; Carontawan Board. Leona has many gifts, but the best known is her beautiful voice. If brilliancy could set the world on fire, M. S. N. S. would have gone up in flames when Leona came here. One would naturally think that she spent all her time studying but she hasn ' t. She is full of fun and always ready to add a little to the Spice of Life . Good luck, Leona, we think your success as a teacher is assured. LOULSE VAN DUSEN Mansfield, Pa. A downtown student who has impressed us with her hard work and great ambition. We love to hear Louise sing. We believe she will make a success as a teacher, if determination and persistency on a hard problem are conducive to the solution of the problem of good teaching. Long Island is not so many leagues from Bucknell, so don ' t get down- hearted, Louise. DOROTHY WALDO Bartow, Florida Dramatic Club; Hiking Club; Girls ' Athletic Club; Rurban Club; Emersonian Literary Society. Dot is a sure enough Southerner, which means that she has a charming manner and a happy-go- lucky, unruffled disposition at all times. She can be very serious, however, when it comes to studying, designing a dress, or taking part in Athletics. Dot loves to play in the snow and could tell us a lot about appreciating winter sports. Her witty, fun loving and unselfish ways have won a lasting place in the heaits of all who have known her. 74 BERNARD WHITNEY Mills, Pa. Emersonian Literary Society; Varsity Football; M Club; Rurban Club. A big, conscientious, hard workinfr fellow, who always has his work done no matter what the tasks may be. He is a true and faithful friend to all who know him. His superior strength made him a valuable man on the football squad; we are sure he will plow his way to success as he plowed through the opposing lines. Mansfield, Pa. Dramatic Club; JANET WOOD Emersonian Literary Society; Art Club; Y. W. C. A. When you see a curly head peeking around the corner you ' ll know it belongs to Janet. She is just about the nicest person they is . Nearly ev- eryone knows Janet — if they don ' t know her they have heard of her because she is one of our best elocution students. Has anyone ever seen her with- out a smile or without a new joke ready to spring on us ? I guess not. If you meet Janet and want to make a real interesting conversation, just ask her about Harry and you have set her going. LAWRENCE WOODIN Towanda, Pa. Larry Band; Orchestra; Y. Cabinet; Orpheus Glee Club; Gospel Team. His cheerful, happy-go-lucky humorous spirit gets him by any time, any place. Among the great generals Custer seems to be his favorite. Music is his hobby and there are very few instru- ments on which he cannot play a tune. He is a member of Goodall ' s Famous Red and Black Serenaders . With Elizabeth at his right hand to help and en- courage him, we believe his success as a second Sousa is certain. SARAH BATES Mansfield, Pa. Sarah is one of our popular down-town girls, who is a graduate in piano. She is a most exceptional student in harmony and we wish her the best of success when she enters the Music Supervisors ' Course ne.xt year. I.- i 1? iw I K. 75 CECIL GARRISON (P. G.) Mansfield, Pa. Cecil is one of the few men with the ambition to come back to school after he has been graduated; not for the certificate that comes at the end of the year, but for the knowledge he can get. This is the spirit of the true student. Cecil is our efficient student secretary of the Y. M. C. A. And as such he has won the respect of every fellow in school. It is needless to say that we hope Cecil will have success in his work. He has already been out in the world and made good . FRANCES GATES. (P. G ) Coudersport, Pa. Outdoor Club; Art Club; Women ' s Council; Y. W. C. A. Frances liked us so well that she came back again this year even though she was among the 1924 graduates. She is the best all around sport imag, inahle. She is always ready for a good time and yet she never neglects her lessons. Frances loves to sing, her favorite song being; Jim, Jim, I always knew you ' d win. We feel sure that Frances will he successful in everything she undertakes. GEORGE NICKLES (P. G.) Muncy, Pa. Nick As we were getting situated for our second semes- ter work we found in our midst a familiar person. This person was George F. Nickles, who had return- ed to take up post-graduate work. Nick is quiet, studious sort of being whom we love to have mingle among us. He was a member of the class of ' 24 and we are yet unable to learn his direct purpose for returning so soon, because prosperity must have smiled while he was away from us. He now drives a new Ford Roadster and we undei ' stand he has pur- chased a sparkler. HOWARD OBOURN (P. G.) Mansfield, Pa. Duke Rurban Club; Honorary Member of Athenaean Literary Society. Duke has been with us for some time, and has taken everything except Domestic Science and the Janitorship. He is particularly interested in automoliiles and cherishes his own Maxwell greatly. He can tell you the most graceful lines of the Rick- enbacker Vertical Eight, or the most paramount virtues of the wonderful Morgan Special De Luxe. MRS. FRANCES SMITH Mansfield, Pa. What a pleasant time the teachers would have if all their pupils were like Mrs. Smith. She never fails to respond in class and the information that she gives is always that which is wanted. Her in- dustry and perseverance are commendable and there is no question that she will realize her ambition. 76 o ' s WHO on President of Men ' s Council Raymond Coolidge President of Women ' s Council Ethel Ely President of ' M Club Raymond Coolidge President of Senior Class George Williams President of Emersonian Literary Society Bernard Whitney President of Athenaean Literary Society Edward Peck President of Y.

Besides being small in number our class is young, for we are only the second one to be dubbed Middlers . This fact, in part, explains our diminutive size. On September 11, 1923, our school days at Mansfield Normal began, and Oh! the strangeness and the thrill of the first few days. After they passed, however, we settled down to the work and pleasure of the life here. The year literally flew by and before we realized it we were on our way home for the long summer vacation. On September 9, 1924, we returned to school, not as Seniors, but as members of the in-between class. With what amusement we explained to the new Juniors that we were not seniors, but Middlers, and then were obliged to explain what the Middler Class is! Out life this year has been filled with more or less difficult work and enjoyable events. We have enjoyed ourselves and have tried to make ourselves agreeable to both the upper and lower classes. As we look back over these school days, we are filled with both joy and sadness. We have passed the half-way mark in our days at Mansfield in a successful manner — we have passed the hard grind of unfamiliar work in unfamiliar surroundings and circumstances. As the year ends we must look forward to a parting from the friends we have made in the Junior and Senior classes. To the Juniors it is Au Revoir and we happily contemplate a meeting with them in September, 1925. With them we expect to enjoy a pleasant and profitable Senior year. To the Seniors, however, it means Farewell and forthwith a sad note is struck. We probably will never see many of them again, but their faces will return again and again under certain circum- stances: when we pick up this book and leaf it through or when we look over stunt books or when we chance to meet a classmate and start reminiscing. Our associations here have meant much to us; they will mean more in the years to come. May none of us go out from Mansfield to bring a disgrace of any sort on the fair name of his Alma Mater . RUTH ALDRICH, ' 26. 81 Middlef Class Roll Barbara Albrieht Waverly, N. Y. Where there are eats and a good time, you ' ll always find Barb. Although she is fun-living she is very ambitious and she will make an excellent teacher if — Dave doesn ' t change her mind. Marv Clifford Susquehanna Pa. The mysterious lady whom we believe often tries to read her own future . She always appeared composed in class until one day Mr. Morgan called her Marv. Kenneth Aldrich Starrucca. Pa. Kenneth is a fellow who is working for what he is getting. He is interested in the violin and we wish him success in the field of music. Ruth Aldrich Blossburg, Pa. Something ' att mpted. something done Has earned a night ' s repose. Thus quotes Ruth as she finishes her day ' s work. Love to a girl who is al- ways doing something for someone else.

There are eyes half defiant, Half meek and compliant. Blue eyes, with a wondrous, witching charm. To bring us good or to work us harm. 82 Mabel Feltz Lebanon, Pa. Naomi Jaquish Mansfield, Pa. Three years from now we ' ll know where you are, but after that you may sail afar; guided perhaps by a naval star. Beatrice Geary Susquehanna, Pa. Beat has a smile for everyone, but one especially nice for her six-footer. Edson Haven Columbia X Roads, Pa. His height is his only shortcoming. Etiiel Heidenreich Hazleton, Pa. Her hair is dark brown and her eyes are brown, too. As a friend she will always prove loyal and true. Damon Holton Mansfield, Pa. Damon graduated before in violin, but has come back to finish the Music Su- pervisors ' Course. Rumor tells us that he is witty as well as a master with the banjo. Porter Huntington Coudersport, Pa. We asked Port where he was last night after ten o ' clock. On receiving no answer we believed that he must have been in his room studying. Oh — eh! Here is the name of Naomi J — , Looks like a worker — Right you are! She begins with the rising sun And when it sets she isn ' t done. To cook and sew is Naomi ' s aim. And may Dom Science brins, ' her fame. Paul R. Jones Tunkhannock, Pa. John Paul wants a new swimming pool so he can dive in and get his feet and head under at the same time.

Miles: Why that ' s Ollie singing My Bonnie lies over the ocean. Christine Lavin Olyphant, Pa. We have heard that Christine is a very fine teacher and we can well believe it. Certain it is that her hobby is piano- playing and that she does it remarkably well. Uarda Huntington Coudersport, Pa. A vivacious young lady from Potter county who works and plays according to moods, but who always has time to do her English. George McCabe Campbell, N. Y. George is the Secretary of the Candy Company of McCabe and Roupp, be- cause he understands better Prices for candy. Charles James Genesee, Pa. There are possibilities for Red in the line of Tayloring. Marion Jerald Mansfield, Pa. This member of our class has been very unfortunate this year, beino ' compelled to be absent much, due to illness; but we have learned to like and appreciate her. Randolph Marble Wellsboro, Pa. We are not as well acquainted with Randolph as we wish because of his quiet ways. Best of luck! David Martin Morris Run, Pa. Dave should be a great cornet player if he doesen ' t let some Titian beauty get the better of him. 83 Carmen Milliren Revnoldsville, Pa. Grace Pryor Mansfield, Pa. Carmen does her woi ' k with zest, from her teaching of the littli ' youngsters in the Training- School to her presidency of the Glee Club. Often she has also charmed us with her wonderful voice. Carl Newell Knoxville, Pa. It is said that a person may go around the world if he travels far enou ' ' h in one direction. We think Carl will do this, as he is always going North ! She ' s a Mansfield girl and she ' s full to the brim of pluck. She does not live in town, only a mile and a half out, but Tioga ' s gentle breezes have no terror for her, for every morning she hikes serenely through them, bound for M. S. N. S. Sarah Richards Pittston, P Can you imagine a combination like this: study and athletics. That ' s our Sally! She excells in lioth. Harold Odell Mansfield, Pa.

Howard is studious and dignified; but he is a good fellow and likes a good time wilh the rest. Genevieve Stearns Coud rsport Pa. Movie party and gym dance for her hold no attraction; and all the sheiks in South Hall bore her to distriction -But |)robably there is a certain Smith in town. 84 Ivan Taylor Middlebury Center, Pa. Why is it we hear so much about Ivan these days ? He seems to have grown popular with the little girl by the well . One wouild not expect such activities from a chap like — Ivan — but you ' d be surprised!!! Orla Van Cam pen Clark ' s Summit, Pa. Patience is a virtue! Orla practices this motto: Press on! a better fate awaits thee. Perry Whitney Thompson, Pa. Perry is our chief clockmaker, photo- grapher, and chemist all combined in one.

We hope, Helen, you ' ll always be able to afford a Spigot . They ' re necessary Ivah Youman.s Mansfield, Pa.

LH JtMOF S 87 m K O W H he Junior Class JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President John Hendershot Vice President Donald Watson Secretary E ' v- nor W ' lliams Treasurer Robert Kellermau EVER shall we forget that first view of Mansfield Normal — that enticing glow which spreads out from all its windows in the twilight hour like a hundred welcoming arms. The cordial beacon-lights came down the campus walk as it were, to guide us into the paternal circle. The golden harvest moon tossed at anchor in a billowy sea of blue and white, while in its guarding light the tower clock rang out a merry Paean. That moment in us was born the immortal love for Mansfield, and we became akin to the loyalists of other years. Light of day brought confusion so overwhelming to us entrants. Drifting is brief in this busy world. We found our new life to hold numerous opportunities and responsibilities. These we have grasped to the best of our judgment. We rejoice in the tradtions of our school, for it is not without that savor. We realize that we must assume larger duties and greater responsibilities; we must prove ourselves worthy of the places which we are to fill. We are happy in the feeling that the Seniors have been our pilots and that we need not say good-bye — but Auf Wiedersehn . To the Faculty we wish to extend our thanks for the help and sympathy they have given us during our first year of higher educatL n. To them also do we say, Auf Wiedersehn . LILLIAN R.

Myers, Director THE OI ' ERA CAST, 1923-24 Flotow ' s Martha SENIOR MUSIC SUPERVISORS Department rHK MI by Dr. MUSIC COURSE at present is of the three year curriculum as instituted Hollis Dann. Thoug-h the present course has been in practice only three years, it has already produced Supervisors of Music who are gaining recognition as ideal leaders. Within the near future this will be a four year degree bearing course on a par with that of any in the country. Under the leadership of Mrs. Grace Steadman, Dean of Music, this course has been welded together until it has reached that degree of perfection that makes a department worthy of praise. Under the competent and careful guidance of eleven teachers instruction is given in instrumental, band, orchestra, choral, community song leading, conducting, methods, harmony, history, theory, sight singing, dictation, music appreciation, folk dancing and all the various subjects that will well fit a supervisor of music. With music more and more recognized as a subject for every child, this department is keeping well abreast of the times in training and fitting instructors of music. Every student in this department is given training in teaching by actual practice. This department has charge of the insti-uction in all branches of music in 105 ORPHEUS GLEE CLUB Grace E. Steadnian. Director CFCELLW (;lee CLUH Emma C ' lmninKham, Director THE NORMAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA Dr. Will Georse Butler, Director every school in Mansfield. Thus the students while attending the Norma! have the chance to teach two years in the local schools from the kindergarten through the Junior and Senior High Schools. In the past year the enrollment in this course has tripled, making it necessary to add several new instructors in this department. We feel very fortunate in having secured Miss Emma Cunningham as Supervisor of the Training School work; Mr. John Myers as the Director of the Band and Instructor in Music H ' .story and Sight Singing; Mrs. John Myers as Instructor and Supervisor of the Music Appreciation and private teacher of piano; Miss Una Hazeltine as private teacher in Voice, and Miss Janice Clark as private teacher in piano. Excellent instruction in Alchin Harmony is given by Miss Georgia Locke Hoag. We feel ery fortunate in ha- ing one of Miss Carolyn Alchin ' s pupils as instructor in our course. Miss Hoag was formerly a private teacher in the piano and p ' pe organ department of this school before studying with Miss Alchin in California. It is through this work of Miss Hoag that the desire for composition has been instilled in the student body. During the past year many original compositions by members of this course have appeared. The thoroughness of this course in Harmony is shown in the fact that the students have been able to arrange and orchestrate their original numbers for the Symphony Orchestra. All members of this course receive orchestral experience in the Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Dr. Will George Butler. This musical organization of forty members has lived well up to its name by performing each year several of the best symphonies of the masters. During the past year the orchestra has rendered original compositions of various members of the Music Course. The orchestra has given various concerts at the school as well as nearby towns and cities. 107 Under the leadership of Mr. John Myers the Mansfield State Normal School Band has grown from a small nucleus to a full fledged organization. This band of thirty players has rendered many concerts during the school year, playing the best of band compositions. The band has accompanied the football team on distant trips each year. It also gives several concerts in nearby towns. The Orpheus Glee Club, consisting of thirty-seven male voices, under the leadership of Mrs. Grace Steadman, has given a number of concerts that have made a name for this organization that will long be remembered. The Cecelian Glee Club of ninety women ' s voices, under the direction of Miss Emma Cunningham gave a fine concert in March. The Vesper choir which is made up of 100 picked voices of the Orpheus and Cecelian Glee Clubs, and directed by Mrs. Grace Steadman, gave the Easter Cantata, From Life to Death , by J. C. Bartlett. From both the Men ' s and Ladies ' Choruses are selected a Male and Ladies ' Quartette. These quartettes have both given many fine selections throughout the past year. , ■ Members of this course receive private instruction in Voice, Piano, Pip ' i Organ, Violin, Cornet, Flute, or any instrument they desire to study. The teachers in Conservatory Department of this school are of the best to be had. Their services may be secured by any student of the school who so wishes. When any pupil has reached the point where it is decided that he is fit for efficient teaching or for public appear- ance he is graduated and allowed to give a graduate rectal. Several excellent recitals have been given this year. An adequate course in stringed instruments is offered by Dr. Will George Butler and Mr. Manderville Bartle, both teachers whose work is deemed very highly. Piano instruction is given by Miss Irene Ripley, Miss Janice Clark, and Mrs. John Myers, three teachers of excellent ability. The school has an excellent three manual organ built by the Austin Organ Company, of Hartford. Instruction is given by Miss Irene Ripley. Instruction on all Band instruments is given by Mr. John Myers. He is director of the Band and is well adapted for this work. School closes each year with two product ' ons of one of the operas under the direction of Miss Grace Steadman. Last year Flotow ' s Martha was given and was a tremendous success. This year the Mikado by Gilbert and Sullivan will be produced. Rehearsals are now under way and the production will soon be completed. In 1917 Mansfield adopted its school song, Mansfield, Hail! by Dr. Will George Butler. This song is by far one of the finest school songs to be found anywhere. A record of the song has been made by the Columbia Phonograph Company. We are justly proud in having its composer as an instructor in our department today. 108 t ik kni Lfci -n ' -!n j - - ' i TRMNING SCHOOL 109 Juniot Hioh School JT CAN HARDLY be said that the Junior High School has a permanent home of its own. Its main quarters, however, may be found on the basement floor of Alumni Hall. In this location are five classrooms, none too large, not well lighted, office for the principal and the other three supervisors, a room used as a library, besides the chapel which is the home for the one hundred fifty pupils. This asssmbly room is also used as a classroom and for demonstration purposes. The Junior High School was organized five years ago, primarily for the pur- pose of affording an opportunity for the Normal students in Group III to acquire teaching practice in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. During the present (second) semester, thirty-four students are teaching the Academic subJ9cts. Besides the Group III students, all the young men of Group II and a few young ladies from Group II are likewise teaching in these grades. With the exception of Music, which is taught by students taking the super- visors ' course, most of the special courses, such as Art, Sewing, Cooking, and Manual Training are taught in other buildings of the Normal. In most of these classes, like- wise, student teachers receive practice in teaching. Since the beginning there have gradually crept in changes in both curriculum and methods of instruction; these changes were dictated largely by adolescent needs. Much remains to be done, especially in reorganizing the courses of study. The workers in the Junior High School feel they have well-grounded hopes of a new building in the near future, which will adequately meet all our needs. Until the state satisfies this want, our work will necessarily be much handicapped on account of inadequate facilities and equipment. 1 o Trainifip ' School pvHE TRAINING SCHOOL, as the name signifies, is the department of the ' ' Normal School which gives the student training and practice in teaching. At i the north of the campus stands the building called The Training School, where the work of the first six grades is carried on. It is a concrete building containing thirteen well lighted class-rooms, a library, rest room, the office of the Director and an assembly room. The seniors do their teaching in the grades of the group in which they have specialized. During the teaching semester the students are made familiar with standard tests, their application, interpretation, charting, and the remedial measures to be applied as general and individual difficulties have been revealed by the test. The student-teacher is given the opportunity to apply methods studied in the other courses of the curriculum. Mansfield Normal School is fortunate in being able to furnish for practice teaching-, school room situations similar to those found in any public school as the Training School is also the public school of ' he village. It is the purpose of the Training School to give to the students through practice teaching, demonstration lessons, conferences, and individual contact, a vision of the possibilities in teaching; a realization that as they go out to teach they will be dealing with children as individuals, that they may recognize, foster, and develop the individuality and initiative of their pupils. It is the duty of the modern teacher to study his pupils and so vary his methods and subject matter that he may serve the child ' s most urgent need. The dominant aim in training teachers is to give to those who are entering teaching, a consciousness of the digniy of the profession and the standards and ideals of a true teacher. 1 1 1 4 y I KindefEarten Khronicle wn s (Apologies to Mother Goose) Sing a song ' of children Busy all the day, Learning as they work, And learning as they i)lay.

We believe that the principles of Art may be so intellio ' ibly presented to the understanding- of the individual that he may see their application to the affairs of every day life; in business, occupation, profession and home. Art is no longer a mystery and vagueness participated in by the few, but is a teachable science possessing a quality that is inherently divine. It is developed slowly, both in taste and skill; in taste through choice of beautiful and skill through careful technique. Our public schools offer the best opportunity for bringing the influence of Art into the lives of all the peojile, and as teachers we must apply the same pedagogical intelligence, the same common sense, the same preparations and tests that are applied to other studies of the curriculum. The results should be definite and tangible and the cultivated emotions and traineil intellect should find expression in those inevitable selections which bespeak the individual taste. We believe that use and beauty may go hand in hand, making form, proportion, and color, which tend to make our material environment, more and more beautiful. LAURA A.

To know what to say, when to say it and how to express it is the constant problem of a teacher. We m?et this need as adequately as time allows. All students receive class room trainins ' , designed to aid them in the particular gTOup of teaching they elect. Advanced Oral Expression class becomes a work of public meetings, and is wholly executed by members of the class. Fine Art of Expression, that of entertainment field, is no small part of the aim of the departmeit. This year six seniors have graduated. The graduate recitals have contributed to programs with graduates in the Music Department. Numbers are chosen by readers with care to please the entire general audience. Outstanding read- ins have been, The Laboratory , by Browning; The Maid of France , by Brighouse; The Painter of Seville , by Susan Wilson; Zingeralla , by MacDowell; The Bells , by Poe; The Highway Man , by Noyes. Under the direction of the Expression Department all plays and school entertainments are produced. This year we seemed tn hold as motto: The Play ' s the Thing. The Play always touches the strings of understanding, and we are ever eager to have the play presented. The play not only gives the audience aesthetic pleasure, but offers definite training for the cast. There is an education of inestimable value obtained through participation in dramatics. The first play of the year was Back to the Farm , a fine comedy with a stron_g theme, produced by the Rurban Club. The annual Christmas play was entitled The Star in the East , by Anna Jane Haru- well. This play had been prize winner in Drama League contest. It proved to be a superior amateur production with us. Seldom is it that the faculty delves into theatricals, but this year the call was strong. The Professor ' s Love Story , by J. M. Barrie. with Dean Arthur Belknap as the Professor, was a rollicking success. The Brown Mouse , a spring play produced by the Rurban Club, gave us an enjoyable picture of the customary rural situation. Thp girl ' s Dramatic Club presented a play in costume. 1 18 JJB AIfSr 1 19 The Library (Dedicated, with profound apologies to Mother Goose, to The Class of 1925.)

Home Economics was our lot. That matters little, however, Per whether Music or Kindergarten, This tie ' d be hard to sever. For we have found within thy walls Knowledge and friendships true; We ' ve learned what it means to be sociable, And we owe it all to you. Some of us came from the worthy farm. And some from a village small; You have mingled us here, with a right good cheer. And made us citizens — all. ' Tis with a sad heart that we say Good- bye; Nay — Au Revoir let it be. For tho ' your students we are no more. Alumni true are we. Such is the feeling with which we bid our Alma Mater farewell, but the three years spent here mean more to us than we are able to fully express. Some days have seemed long and just brim full of hard work, but who among us is not proud of it now. Can it be possible that we have included so much in such a short time ? Let us reminisce a little. There were the parties at the Cottage once a month for the whole department. We had such good times, even tho ' we did have to be hostess In no other way could we have become so well acquainted with the first and second year girls. The White Cottage Cook Book is a project upon which we look with pride. Although we were not the class to put it out, we were of great assistance to them. Serving cocoa to the children in the training school proved valuable. How 123 those little faces would brighten with the thoug ' hts of something hot on those cold, cold days! The item of greatest interest, however, was probably the introduction of the Household Management Course. Did we enjoy living at the Cottage, planning and cooking our own meals, marketing and being ideal house-wives and home-makers? I ' m quite sure there are few who would answer negatively, for it has been a very helpful course and we would have missed a great deal had we not been able to take it. Our department has seemed a little isolated from the rest of the school on account of its specialization, but, nevertheless we were well represented in the activities of the Normal. From our numbers were chosen: President of Student Council, 19i;4-25; President of Y. W. C. A., 1924-25; President of Emersonian Literary Society, 1923-24; Treasurer of Y. W. C. A., 1924-25; Vice President of Athenaean Literary Society, 1924-25; Vice President Cecelian Glee Club, 1922-23; Treasurer Art Club. 1924-25; Vice President Dramatic Club, 192.3-24; Carontawan Board member, 1924-25. One of our classmates graduated in Elocution, two majored in special subjects, one in Social Studies, and one in English. So now we fling the burning torch To others worthy of the work begun; To carry it as we have done, On tn the goal for which we strive. 124 ORGAN IZATIONS 125 3 u w m ■z ' . , -13 [ :■ pa c o u ' -; a « ■ u o S o ii Cfl ,c O CJ a) - . ; ts t j Q !S CO f- ■ T o 3 X - OT H Ul O o i o p:; a f.

W. C. A. of our school is only a very small part of the large organization which is nationally known and recognized. The Little Town on the Hill unit has endeavored to uphold the purpose of the association and to live by the symbol of the lighted candle which signifies a spirit of helpfulness and the love of service combined with Christian faith and hope. On account of the expectionally large registration in the fall, it was necessary for us to give up our Y. W. C. A. rooms and hold our meetings in Alumni Hall. Although the informality of our meetings has been to some extent broken up, there still exists the friendly atmsphere and Christian spirit which binds us all together. According to custom the Y. W. welcomed the new students by givins; a get acquainted party. Later a joint reception was given with the Y. M. C. A. One of our largest undertakings this year was the Japanese Bazaar held just before the Christmas holidays. The Training School children assisted us in giving a play, the Toy Shop . The student body fostered by the Y. W. and Y. M. C. A. organizations sent liberal Christmas donations of money and gifts to the Harrison Valley and Bethel orphanages. The annual summer conference held at Eaglesmere brou9:ht the girls who attended into closer relationship with the Y. W. C. A. work as a whole and gave us courage and inspiration to do our best in carrying out the work which has meant so much to us. We hope that each girl as she leaves her Alma Mater will fe?l that she has acquired through our Y. W. C. A. spiritual as well as intellectu ' il nhvsical and social development. Thus she will have laid the foundations upon which to live the four- fold life. T 127 w o ■= p i 3 V2 O. c, 3 O o « Pi o o O ' y. M. C. A.

Our instructors favored us with their excellent advice and encouragement as to the administration of the Y activities. We were further inspired by the State Convention at Lewisburg. This Convention which was held the first of May, was attended by the President, Vice president. Secretary, General Secretary, and Social Secretary. The trip was made by automobile. The reports of the various meetings were given and a number of cabinet meetings were held to plan the work for the coming school year. The new school opened September 10. The Y. M. C. A. Cabinet and a few old members were busily engaged in helping and directing the Freshmen. Shortly after school opened a joint reception for students was held by the Y. W. and Y. M. Then started the membership drive which proved to be exceedingly successful owing to the fact that our Y. M. C A. has a very definite purpose; namely, that we strive to promote the spiritual, mental, and physical growth of our students. Undoubtedly the greatest realization of our spiritual activities came from attending our weekly Thursday Evening Devotions. These meetings were non- sectarian and were led by men who know how to succeed and how to gain the ultimate goal we are all seeking, and who live their lives in accordance with that knowledge. In furthering the spiritual work we were fortunate to have a Y Gospel Team. The Y Gospel Team has lived up to its name this year by successfully conducting many inspiring and influential services both here at school and in neighbor- ing towns and cities. The Y furnishes social recreation and a place for the fellows to spend their leisure moments in a moral environment. In other words, the Y. M. C. A. is a big brother to the student while he is attending school. 129 W o - s 5 w a: OFFICERS President Edward Peck Vice President Beatrice Geary Secretary Helen Benning Treasurer Fred Gridley Chaplain Henry Darrow Parliamentarian . . . .Raymond Coolidge P ' anist Henry Darrow Song Leader Bohdan Shianta WE FIND that many of the finer things that we learn in life are not those learned in the classroom. Many facts and general principles are brought to our realization by direct contact with specific problems. We feel that l)y closer deal ings with our fellowmen, we will grow to be just a little larger as citizrns of the United States. We cannot do too much to benefit society. The purpose of any organization in this institution is to draw students into activity and make them realize the definite part they play here. This is the purpose of our Literary Society. We meet every Monday evening with a definite end in view. Our programs are always educational, some being more amusing than others. We have nothing except topics that are presented by members of our society. This appearance of local talent is very beneficial to our profession. Our program committee deserves much credit for the debates they have developed. Current topics are the ones taken up, and are discussed by the chosen members. Many students say they are too busy for any social activities, but we think it pays to be a member of the L iterary Societies. Try, and see for yourself. • EDWARD PECK, ' 26. 131 M O O w • K o The Emersonian Literary Society OFFICERS— 1924-25 First Semester Second Semester President Marion Davies President Bernard Whitney Vice President Martha Bartlett Vice President Leone Smith Secretary Janet Wood Secretary Martha Bartlett Treasurer Harriett Merritt Treasurer Judith Colbassoni Chaplain Charles James Chaplain .William Cole S;)ng leader Ruth Shumway Song Leader Ruth Shumway Pianist Ruth Potter Pianist Rachel Matthews Parliamentarian Parliamentarian .... Winnifred Gumble Faculty Advisor Dean Cure Faculty Advisor Dean Cure rHE EMERSONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY offers training in debate, dramatics, and public speaking in general. Members of talent and ability are given opportunity to develop their powers. Meanwhile we heighten our knowledge of parliamentary law and literature. We desire as members only those interested in receiving benefit from our society, displaying this interest by their willingness to participate in our programs and activities. We earnestly seek to be of service to our members. We believe that every teacher should be capable of conducting any public meeting, and should feel self-confident in appearing before an audience, as well as at ease in conversation with people of culture. Therefore, as prospective teachers, we study and follow parliamentary law. Our study of books and authors adds to our cultural background. The society meets twice a month, alternating business with literary meetings. Our debates, both impromptu , and prepared, aside from training us in quick thinking and public speaking, prepare us for the inter-society debate which takes place each year. This is an event of great interest to both societies. The Literary Society aims to present each year some gift to the school that will benefit all who come here as a mai ' k of our appreciation. Last year our society presented the library with a collection of fine books. Our members have responded willingly to our requests and our officers have worked faithfully. We trust that they will continue to give and to receive in our society. MARION T. DAVIES. 133 Women ' s Council Back Row- -Helen Stephens, Frances Gates. Florence Beckman. P iont Row — Fannie Heller, Ethel Ely, Ha Hess. V oniens Qovefmnent Association - Tf HE WOMAN ' S COUNCIL is one of the mediums throusj ' h which many of the ideals of conduct, scholarship, and character, for which Mansfield Normal ' - stands, are transmitted to the students. It is also an avenue through which students can convey their opinions and desires to the administrators of the school. The Association itself, is an organized means by which students participate in the control of school affairs. It has done much to quicken their sense of responsi- bility. Year by year it has increased in strength and io gradually assuming the direction of more and more aspects of student life. This yea- the Soci-il Department has been responsible for planning numerous good times which have promoted a spirit of kindly fellowship. Some of the best of these have teen the picinic in the fall, stunt night, and the gym socials. The Department of Industry has devised new means of making our study hours more profitable and orderly, and the Department of Public Service has assisted in furthering the plans for the Club House. The remodeling of the Club House has given us many added possibilities for social activities. We now have a recreation house of which every girl can be proud. Much of the success of the undertaking is due to the interest and earnestness with which Dean Bradt has planned and worked to make it possible. Whatever success our .student government may have attained, we attribute to the splendid spirit of co-opera- tion of the girls and we wish to thank them for it. 134 MEN ' S STUDENT COUNCIL Upper Row: French, Stevens, Kellerman. Bottom Row: Roupp, Chamberlain, Coolidge (Pres.), English. yfl N ORGANIZATION is known by the members who make up that organization. rt y l It is with this thought in mind that we, as members of the council, realized that our success for the year depended upon ourselves. Whether or not we have succeeded remains for others to say. A very good way of determining, it seems, is by comparing conditions in and about the dormitory witW those of other years. Co-operation is the secret of the success of any organigation. So long as the house is divided there cannot be progress. It is the privilege and duty of the better element, the ones who want order, to influence the lawless few. Eventually the trouble makers will be come a, zero quantity and perfect harmony will result. A system has been worked out after much thought and deliberation whereby the men of South Hall have been divided as suggested above. The better element, the seventy per cent who need no coaching to keep them from over-stepping the few simple regulations necessary for every individual, have been excused from all meetings of purely disciplinary nature. Should the necessity for a meeting of all men arise a notice to that effect can be read. Such a meeting would be for instructional purposes only. Whether or not this newly installed plan will work out or to what extent it will prove successful still remains to be seen. We believe it to be the solution of many difficulties in our home of more than a hundred boys. The Council is made up of the following- President — Raymond Coolidge. Vice President — Harold Chamberlain. Councilmen — Leonard Roupp, Orlando English, Paul Stevens, Paul French, Robert Kellerman. 135 THE GOSPEL TEAM Upper Row: Smith, Shlanta, Woodin, Kellarman. Bottom Row: Gardner, English. Mens Qospel Team Speakers: Orlando English (Pres.) Paul Gardner Edward Smith Robert Kellerman Musicians: Hohdnn Shlanta (Violin) Larrv Woodin (Vocal) THE GOSPEL TEAM is not the least among- the activities of the school. Though not of the spectacular variety it is gradually assuming a vital place in student life. Its aim is realy two-fold: It seeks to create a deeper interest along spiritual lines and to develop a strong Christian character. It stands ready at a moment ' s notice to take charge of a religious service, providing both music and speakers. The young men who thus publicly testify to their belief in the efficacy of Christianity find themselves strengthened, while those who hear their testimony realize that all spirituality has nof died out in their schools. The team has responded to emergency calls in practically very church in this community, and in no instance has been found wanting. We want to make the Y. M. C. A. mean more to the school, and the school mean more to the community and the st.ite, and we believe the Gospel Team has had its part in this.

The motto of the Club is A Square Deal for the Country Child . Meetings of the Club are held twice each calendar month. Social and literary programs are of such a nature as to suggest to the members programs which may be carried out by them later as teachers and community workers. During the year the club presented the play Back to the Farm and as a project they have purchased a library of fiftv books which have been sent to a rural school as Tioga County ' s First Travi ' ling Library.

The Club aims each year to undertake and complete some one project. The project this year is to be: The sturly of the stars and of the constellations. The membership is limited to fifty. New members were taken in the beginning of the year and they were duly initiated. They were paddled to Canoe Camp where the old and new members enjoyed a most delightful supper. Among other pleasures the Club enjoyed a sleighride to Mainesburg, a tobogganing party and taffy pull. The most successful enterprise the Club has boosted this year was The Girls ' Stunt Night held at the Gymnasium at the beginning of the new semester. We extend our best wishes to the Club for the coming year. 137 O ' iris Aiiiietic OFFICERS President . .

The purpose of the Girls ' Athletic Club is to promote athletics, foster competition between individual contests, and to uphold and improve the school spirit in athletics here. The various tournaments, such as tennis, basketball, volley ball and swimming, plus skating and skiing, are proof enough that this Club is worth joining. If you wish to do something worthwhile for your Alma Mater we advisie you to qualify in some form of athletics. The privilege of wearing a varsity M is granted only to Seniors meeting certain requirements. Numerals are awarded to those who have spent the required number of hours on Athletics.

We hope that its accomplishments have meant something worthwhile, not only to its members, but also to the school at large. Previous to the Christmas holidays we devoted our time to making gifts. Some very charming articles were made- -tied- and-dyed scarfs, handkerchiefs, etc.. wooden toys, decorated candle sticks, and liatik woi-k. After this festive season we began our real work. As a subject for research and discussion we chose Spanish Art. The Alhambra and Spanish Cathedrals, as well as artists, made the subject fascinating as well as educational. As a Club project we redecorated the kindergarten, and thus made the kiddies ' school-home a more attractive place in which to live. As a finale to the year ' s work we produced our play. Through these various activities our purpose has been to gain a greater appreciation of the fine arts through the study of appreciation and production of beautiful things. May our purpose live on! 138 OFFICERS President Katherine Belknap Vice President F ' annie Heller Sec. and Treas Stella Kowett Faculty Advisor .. Miss Agnes Allardice rHE DRAMATIC CLUB began the year by taking in new girls to fill the places of those who left us last year. We found a wealth of talent among the Junior girls and some of the old girls that has added much to our Club. The Christ- mas Play was very successful, being different from most of the plays given before. We also had new and beautiful scenery, which always makes a play more enjoyable. We have been handicapped by being unable to use the Club House, but we have had some very interesting meetings in the Reception Room and Miss Allardice ' s studio. These meetings have consisted of programs, prepared by the girls, eats and good times. On- of our most enjoyable programs was a talk by Miss Elizabeth Allen on Plays and Playwriters. The annual jilay given by the Club was presented in April. With the co-operation and fine feeling that has prevailed among the girls this year we feel that the Dramatic Club is one of the most successful clubs in our school. KATHERINE BELKNAP.

Only those men who are authorized to wear the official monogram M are eligible to become members. At the present time there are more than twenty mmbers. The purpose of the club is to promote better athletics and better sportsmanship. By better athletics we do not necessarily mean more victories as determined by score alone. Good athletics mean somethino- far greater than that, although many schools measure the success of their athletics by the scores piled up against their opponents. True sportsmanship is something that can and should be carried into every walk of life. It can be diplayed in the schoolroom or in business life as well as on the athletic field. It is the big man, the good sport, that can take an honest defeat with the same spirit that he takes an honest victory. RAYMOND COOLIDGE. 140 Ai l ACTIVITIES 141 CAST AND ORCHESTHA OF RURBAN CLUB PLAY Back to the Farm II at Two years aRO, the Rurban Club, then a fledgeling at the Normal School, brought itself into the lime-light by producing one of the finest plays of the year: Back to the Farm. So great was the success of the play that it was decided to produce it again this year. It had been well advertised and early in the evening the eager mob filled Alumni Hall to overflowing. Dr. Butler ' s orchestra was on hand to play some opening numbers and after they had successfully quieted the audience the curtain rolled up on the first farm scene. From then on the audience was held not only by an interesting story, but also by fine acting. With Dana Allen, Helen Benning, Leonard Roupp and Rena Terry in the leading roles and a wonderful support from the less stellar parts the play rose to its grand climax and we are told that so strong was the effect of the play that many pupils started packing their bags that night in their eagerness to get Back to the Farm . The money raised from this project was used to furnish the first traveling lii)rai-y in Tioga county. 142 Y. M. C. A. MINSTREL Cast, Orchestra and Assistants ' y Minstfeh Yas Suh! it sure was some show. One continuous stream of laugliter from the first curtain to the last. With Larry Woodin as pivot and the whole show swinging from him it was bound to be a success. Each year the Y. M. C. A. furnishes a minstrel. This is given to raise money to carry on the work of the Y Hut. The amount raised this year far exceeded the expectations, being about $160. Already the hut has shown the effects of this swell in the funds. Goodall, Holton, Stevens, Huntington and Yurkewitch proved fine premiers and with the assistance of Donlin, Holleran, Bennett as end men, a fine circle and a good orchestra, the show was a huge success. 143 THE RED AND BLACK SEKENADERS V.

Every man in the orchestra not only strives to succeed for the sake of the orchestra, but also to reflect credit on his Alma Mater. Fine co-operation amongst the members, combined with hearty suppoi ' t from school and townspeople, has made the orchestra what it is. So as a new director, Mr. Damon Holton, comes to the helm next yeai ' may the standards be carried ever higher and higher till the old lioys mention with pride that they belonged to the Red and Blacks.

The next ques- tion was how to get it. At Mansfield there are several ways of getting money for worthy projects. One of them is to ask for voluntary contributions, but this method usually shows that the public attitude is good, although it has a peculiar faculty for forgetting to actually materialize its good intentions. Another way is to levy a forced tax on each individual concerned, and any student who has studied the period just preceding the Revolutionary War vnW be able to appreciate an American senti- ment in such a case. In short the girls came to the conclusion that they could best carry out their project by giving the public something for their money and if possible to bring the boys in on it. Everyone enjoys a good time, although people ' s conception of a good time differs somewhat. The whole thing at last evolved itself into an entertainment, or indoor fair under the name of the Fakirs ' Frolic . Each school organization was asked to furnish some money-making attraction. They surely did. Such a collection of first rate attractions would be hard to find outside of the New Orleans Mardi Gras. There were side shows containing the world ' s g ' reatest collection of freaks, horrors, and clever entertainers. A Spanish street cafe, a gypsy fortune teller, and a circus drew their share of patrons. One of the largest and finest attractions was a vaudeville performance which received a great deal of applause and praise from its audience. The grand finale was a feast of jazz under the name of jitney dance, and every one went home gloriously tired but happy. There is only one fault that could be possibly found and it is, that the Fakirs ' Ftolic has set the standard of such entertainments so high that it will be pretty difficult for any future organizations to stage one. The night of October eighteenth will long be remembered at M. S. N. S. The Annual Junior Dance was held in the gymnasium on the afternoon of February 21. This event had been eagerly looked forward to by both the upper and under classmen for weeks, yes, for months. Things that are anticipated for a long time are not very liable to live up to the expectations of the anticipators, but let it be remembered of the Junior Dance, that it even exceeded the most optimistic prophesies. The music was furnished by the Red and Black Serenaders, and it was fine. The program was excellent, and the attendance the largest on record for an under- classmen ' s dance. If justice is to be done the occasion it would be impossible to omit the beautiful decorations of streamers, combined with potted plants from the Normal Greenhouse. It is said that Mr. Brooks, the superintendent of grounds and buildings, was responsible for transforming the Gym into a veritable fairyland. The occasion was a success, thanks to the Junior Class President, John Hender- shot and other officers, and members of the class. May the Juniors of 1925 and suc- ceeding classes do as well. 145 M Chib Dance Two chords crash and away we g:o. The M Club dance started in such fashion and the crash continued till Fathsr Time called a halt. A grand and glorious dance given by a grand and glorious club in a grand and glorious way. Early in the year the outlook for a dance was dubious because of financial difficulties, but the members I ' ose to the occasion in a fine manner, money was raised and we cried On with the dance The Red and Blacks furnished their usual type of fine music and everyone declared it a wonderful time. Much credit is due President Coolidge (not Cal.) and other members of the committee. y, M, C, A. Dance One of the most pleasurable events of the year was the dance given by the y. M. C. A. for its members. The dance was given in the hut which was tastefully trimmed in green and white. A picked orchestra from the school furn ' shed the music and everyone declared it an enjoyable afternoon. R ' freshments were served and a short program was given. It was at this dance that the Y. M. C. A. Quartet made its debut and was received with loud acclaim. May the Y continue to furnish such enjoyable times. It is too early yet to tell all the fine points of the Opera as it will not be given till Commencement week. This much we know, however, any production under the direction of Mrs. Steadman is bound to be a success. The Opera chosen this year is The Mikado by Gilbert Sullivan. Larry Woodin, Paul Stevens, Fred Ringrose, Maurice Starkey, Bohdan Shlanta, Carmen Milliren, Loren Thomas, Crescence King and Euleta Bunnell complete the cast. A fine chorus supports them and beautiful scenery designed and painted by Dr. Butler should add much to the beauty. Costumes and accessories will be procured from Tarns Co., New York, and will be gorgeous to the extreme. Two productions with a dress rehearsal for the juniors will be given as usual. 146 At last a chance to see the Faculty scared and then they weren ' t a bit nervous. They acted as though they were teaching a class and made themselves perfectly at home on the stage. With Dr. Belknap in the leading role as the absent-minded professor, and Miss O ' Brien, his secretary, to support him in such a wonderful fashion, we had two characters who alone would have made the play a success. But with them in the same breath must be mentioned the work of Mr. Morgan, Miss Ellison, Miss Jupenlaz, Mr. Myers, and every other member of the cast. If space permitted we could tell much about each player, but suffice it to say that Miss Allardice, the director, can be well satisfied with her faculty. The audience proclaimed it the best play in Alumni Hall in years. On Friday evening, April 24th, the Girls ' Dramatic Club jiresented their annual play. This year the play selected was Mice and Men , a clever and unusual comedy by Madeline Lucette Ryley. The story was founded on Robert Burn ' s well-known saying, The best laid schemes of mice and men gang aft agley. The characters of the play as well as the period in which it was laid made it especially adaptable for an all-female cast. Mark Embury, a scholar and philosopher, takes an orphan, Peggy, from an asylum to bring up after his own ideas. From this nucleus is worked out an interesting story. The various players were well cast for the role: Mark Embury was played by Janet Wood; Peggy, the orphan, by Ktherine Hanlan; Captain George Lovell, Embury ' s nephew and hero, by Katherine Belknap. These were the three leading roles. The girls are to be congratulated at their handling of these difficult parts. The leading actors were supported by an excellent cast who also did themselves justice. Taken as a whole the production reflects credit upon the club; the talent it has among its members, and its director. Miss Allardice. In the true spirit of Christmas the school offered as its Christmas play a story based on the Bible story of Jewish bondage in Assyria. Especially did we notice the fine scenery planned by Miss Wheeler, Miss Barnhardt and members of the Art Department. The play itself, under the direction of Miss Agnes Allardice, was of the highest type and every player showed wonderfully fine coaching. Due to sickness it was necessary to give Mr. Morgan the leading part at the last minute, but so exceptional was his reading of the part that the play moved to a very successful close. We liked the work of Crediford, Chamberlain, Alden, Miss Jonas and Miss Tyburski in other heavy parts and we congratulate Miss Allai-dice and the entire cast on the fine work done in The Star in the East. 147 Farewell to Mansfield Words and Music by LARRY WOODIN.

The child, weak in strength and ignorant of the ways of this world, carefully watched and nurtured by his mother, finally grows to the strength of manhood, ready to do his pait in the world ' s work. It is hard to estimate what he owes to his mother for her love and patience through his years of growth. Although he may attempt to repay her labor of love by devoted care in her declining years, he as a rule finds this an impossibility for mother has done so much for him that he cannot repay it. Just so we may draw a parallel between student and Alma Mater. We enter her gates ignorant of the ways of the world, ignorant of proper physical, mental the patient attention of our Alma Mater we grow into mature young manhood and hte patient attention of our Alma Mater we grow into mature youn manhood and womanhood with fixed habits and ideals in life and a desire to do better and greater things. Yet do we realise what we owe our Alma Mater ? Do we attempt always to repay her? Loyalty is the keynote of our reparation; but do we always remember to do all in our power to repay ? Some of us do. It is noted with pleasure that certain of our Alumni send their children for training to the school that gave them a start. Some because of new duties, new trials, new friends, forget easily as soon as we leave our old school. How many of us as teachers remember to talk Mansfield to our pupils and to others who contemplate entering a higher school of learning? How many of us attempt to improve the athletic prowess of our Alma Mater by sending good athletic material back to Mansfield? This spirit of loyalty is particularly evident in Alumni meetings, such as those held in New York City. Scranton, and in other places at a distance. Perhaps those who are farther away have the clearer visio i. However, one of the significant characteristics of most Mansfield alumni is this spirit of loyalty. Wherever her children are, their achievements are always of interest to their . lma Mater, and so below we recount some of their doings: George W. Woodruff, class of ' 83, has done much in the past to bring honor to his Alma Mater by his athletic prowess and success as an attorney-at-law.

Van Norman Coach Edward Kus.sell Manager Henry Darrow Captain Raymond Coolidge The football season, while not a big one in victories, was a success from the standpoint of fine results from a meager start. The schedule that had been prepared was a heavy one that required an experienced team. At the call for candidates a large squad turned out, but few were of the old guard . Prominent among the absentees was O ' Keefe, who had bean elected captain for the season of 1924, and whose loss at quarterback was sorely felt. Coach Russell had before him the big job of training a squad of men new to Normal football into a winning combination, a task almost impossible in one season. The results he obtained were gratifying to those who knew the situation as it was. Coach Russell is one of the local alumni and a graduate of the University of Penn- sylvania, where he was famous as an athlete. He was well liked by all the men and we hope to have him with us again next year. Mansfield began the season with a big victory over Oswego. Coolidge, who had been captain the previous year was again elected captain after this game. The team was improving greatly from week to week and when Bloomsburg came to Mansfield the team was in top form. The game played by our team that day was of the true Mansfield standard. It began to look as if we were to wind up the season with great victories. However, hard luck in the form of injuries struck the team before the end of the game and Mansfield never again entered battle full strength. We can not judge our team by subsequent games for the big loss by injuries suffered during the Bloomsburg game and in practice the following week was too much to be overcome, especially when these injuries deprived us for the rest of the season of the more experienced of our men. 159 The Q antes OCTOBER 4. OSWEGO, 0; MANSFIELD, 19 The Normal football team started the season of ' 24 with a victory over Oswego Normal of New York State. From the first the result was never in doubt. Mansfield kicked off, held Oswego for downs and proceeded to smash over for a touchdown. Before the end of the quarter Mansfield scored again. Coach Russell took advantage of the lead in score to give some of the new men a chance and they added another touchdown and the first successful attempt for goal after touchdown. Oswego kicked off at the start of the second half and the teams settled down to a more even battle. Mansfield used nearly all the second string men in this half and was prevented from further scoring by fumbling at critical times. Captain Coolidge, Evans and Odell starred for M. S. N. S. OCTOBER 11. DICKINSON SEMINARY, 31: MANSFIELD, Dickinson Seminary came to Mansfield with a team reputed to be one of the finest ever to represent that institution on the gridiron, and they lived up to their reputation by a 31-0 victory over our hard fighting team. Their team out-weighed ours by many pounds to the man and the Normal was placed on the defensive from the start. Mansfield after receiving the ball on the kick-off was unable to advance the ball and Seminary annexed seven points in the first few minutes of play. Normal settled down to a hard fight and improved as the game progressed, as Dickinson scored all except one touchdown in the first half. Mansfield put up a great scrap and displayed a spirit that greatly pleased their supporters. The defensive work of Williams, Carpenter and Coolidge was commendable. OCTOBER 25. BLOOMBSURG, 6; MANSFIELD, On Alumni Homecoming Day Bloomsburg and Mansfield Normals played the greatest game of the season on Smythe Park. Bloomsburg kicked off and Mansfiel d ran the ball back to her own 35 yard line. Mansfield, showing the best form of the season, worked the ball down the field to Bloomburg ' s 20-yard line where she lost the ball on downs with only a foot to go. Up to this point Mansfield had possession of the ball most of the time during nearly a quarter of playing and would doubtless have scored had not injuries forced two backfield men from the game. Bloomsburg began a march down the field and was stopped on our 25-yard line. Neither team was able to gain through the line. When only a few minutes of the half were left Bloomsburg resoi ' ted to forward passing and finally completed one from the 15-yard line and scored the only touchdown of the game on the play. They failed to make the point after touchdown. The second half was a battle fought in the middle of the field. Mansfield tried hard to tie the score but could not with her weakened backfield. Bloomsburg seemed to have all the breaks. Lloyd, Williams, and Coolidge played brilliantly. 160 NOVEMBER 1. LOCK HAVEN, 6; MANSFIELD 7 Lock Haven forced Mansfield to the limit to win a 7-6 victory in an uninteresting game at Mansfield. Mansfield played without the services of Alden, Lloyd, and Williams, who were on the injured list. During the first half play was in the middle of the field and Mansfield was unable to get under way. The half ended without either goal line being threatened. Mansfield came back stronger in the third quarter and pushed over a touch, down and kicked the goal. Lock Haven in the last quarter by hard fighting carried the ball down into Mansfield ' s territory and finally crossed the goal line. They failed to kick the goal. Mansfield played a ragged game. Fitzsimmons, who was a regular with Mansfield last year, played a brilliant game for Lock Haven. NOVEMBER 8. CORTLAND, 26; MANFIELD, 7 Mansfield journeyed to Cortland on November 8th and played their first game away from home with the Normal of that place. It was a cold, wintry day and the change in temperature did not agree with our team for they lost to the tune of 26-7. Cortland scored two touchdowns before Mansfield got thawed out and began to play football. After that Mansfield held Cortland for the remainder of the half. Mansfield scored in the second half when they blocked a punt and went over for a touchdown. Mansfield kicked the goal. Cortland scored two touchdowns in this half. Fumbling by our backfield was in part responsible for their scoring and also kept our boys from further scoring. Carpenter and Evans played a good game for Mansfield. NOVEMBER 15. STROUDSBURG, 46; MANSFIELD, 7 Mansfield took the trip to East Stroudsburg wdth a crippled team, three of our best men being unable to make the trip. Nevertheless, the team was given a great send-off and a large number of students, including the Normal band, journeyed to East Stroudsburg to see Mansfield meet her ancient rival, hoping to the last for the unexpected. The outcome was never in doubt after the first few minutes, for the Strouds- burg team was as good as its record indicated. Mansfield fought hard, but Stroudsburg seemed to have even the breaks and scored almost at will. Mansfield, however, could not be kept from scoring and plunged over Strouds- burg ' s goal line for a touchdown. We added the point after touchdown. The game was much harder fought than the score would indicate. Coolidge, James and Williams played great games for Mansfield. 161 The Players RaymonH Coolidge. heisrht 5 feet 9 inches, weight 175, position tullhacli. Ray hails from Wellsboro. the county seat. He was also the seat or foundation of our football team. Ray has been captain for the past two years, an honor which he really deserves. His playing this year was more uncanny than that of pi-evious years. Injuries to players forced him to play lioth on the line and in the backfield. This, with that ncNcr-die spii ' it, made Ray ])i ' ob- ably our best all-around football man. Ray leaves us through graduation this year and will surely be missed by all. We know he will be successful as a teacher, but perhaps he will enter col- lege ' nstead. If he does the latter, watch for Ray ' s name in the football squad. Vaughn Carpenter, height . feet 9 inches, weight Kifi, position end. This flashy end iiails from I.aw- rcnceville. This was the first year Carp was gi en a real crack at Varsity football and from his outstanding work we judge it would not have gon ' amiss to have started him before. Red was one of the fastest ends we saw in action this season. H was al- ways a hard fighter and tacklei ' . ojipon- ents claim ng he was one of the hai ' dest hitting men they had met. Red ' s stellar work on the gridiron during his three yeai-s at Mansfield has won for him a host of friends and ad- mirers in whose memory he will con- tinue as one who was tried and found not wanting. Bernard Whitney, height . ' ) feet 10 inches, weight 170, position guard. When a cool-headed man with strength and skill was needed for the line, the coach could always depend on Bernard. H ' s football training of previous years, coupled with his many other athletic experiences, made him a capital man for the position of tackle. While participating in the Blooms- burg game, one of the most crucial of the season, he received an injury which incapacitated him for the two following games. His absence was felt by every- one and the time of his return was eagerly looked forward to. Bernard lent his support to the team by being present at every practice, although he was not always able to don the football togs. Next veai ' ' s team will sui ' fdv miss him. Russell . Hen, height 6 feet 2 inche.s, weight 190, position guard. ' Russ is a product of Nicholson His:h School and well may they be proud of him. His combative nature and gen- eral get-up was such that he just natur- ally took to football like a duck to water. His was the phisique of an all-around athlete. This worthy son of Nicholson is considered one of Coach Russell ' s best line-men of last season. Russ possesses the bulldog tenacity a ' ld St ck-to-it-itiveness that makes a valu- able man for any grid team. Possessing a likeable personality and always the attitu-de of a true snort, he will be recorded in the history of the M. S. N. S. as one of the most valuable grid men of 1924. 162 Manford Lloyd, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 160, position halfback Manford came to us from Wellsboro, an athlete of no mean ability. His for- mer experience gained for him a posi- tion in the Varsity immediately. Fast on his feet, and clever at picking holes are two qualities that distinguish a good football man — that is Lloyd. The misfor- tune of a fractured arm in the latter part of the season prevented him from finishing the season, but as a reward for his excellent work and ability as a field general he was deemed worthy to captain the 1926 team. Success to you Lloydie , we are expecting a winning team. Harold O ' Dell, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 16.5, position guard. Poke is a Mansfield product and a worthy son. This was his second year on the Varsity squad. Poke played a consistent game at guard, fighting hard, keeping his op ponent guessing as to what was com- ing next. Poke will be with us next year to help put M. S. N. S. on the foot- ball map. Grover Worthington, he ' ght 5 feet 6 inches, weight 160, position halfback. Grunt came to us from Muncy Val- ley. Although small in size, he was one of our best backfield men for the 1924- 25 season. This was Grunt ' s first ex- perience to the hard knocks of the gridiron, but he came through like a big leaguer . He was a real fighter of the never give up type and a very consistent player. Each game in which he played he proved himself to be a good football representative for old M. S. N. S. Besides football, Grunt has shown skill in basketball, wrestling, and baseball. The fact that he has two more years here makes us feel certain that when he leaves we shall hear of his fine playing in larger colleges. Just keep your eye peeled and watch him go. George Williams, height .5 feet 10 inches, weight 1,55, position quarterback. George came through with all that was expected of him this year. His conscientiousness and hard work at practice showed itself in every game. George is a real football player, as well as a first class sport. He excelled in pulling down forward passes and running back punts. He also showed skill in squirming through the line for some pretty gains. He has all the ability and tactics of a real quarterback and proved that his generalship was first rate stuff. If George takes it into his head to continue his education we ' ll not be a bit surprised to see him a big timer some day. Gordon Evans, height 6 feet, weight 180, position tackle. Evans was one of our biggest lines- men. His knack of breaking through the opponents line and downing the run- ner in his tracks brought him to the fore early in the season and he soon de- veloped into- one of our hardest hitting and most dependable men. This was Gordon ' s first year at Nor- mal football and so look for big work from him next year. Robert Kellerman, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 165, position halfback. Bob is, by nature, a quiet, reserved, easy-going gentleman; but as soon as he gets into a game he is transformed ed into a veritable demon , especially in the eyes of the opponents. He puts his whole soul into a game and into every- thing else in which he takes part. He was a moral asset to our team, because of his good character, cool-headedness, clean playing, and modesty. His brand of playing would make one think that he must have had very much football experience, but the fact is, he graduated from a high school that had no football team, so he had practically no experience. This being true, what may we expect from him next year? 163 Charles James, height 6 feet 2 inches, weight 180, position guard. It was Red ' s second year with th-o eleven and he lived up to expectations by going strong the whole season. Being a giant in stature, Red could be depended upon to open up holes in the line. He was a buhvai ' k of strengtl: on the offense and well-nig ' h invincible on the defense. The Red and Black ' s chances of a championship eleven next fall is aug- mented by the fact that Red will re- turn to don his football togs. Myles Storch, height 6 feet ' 2 inch, weight 185, position tackle. Storch was the strongest man on the line and was usually responsible for some good gains through the line. He was a hard-hitting tackle and gen- erally slowed up the opposing backfield. Injuries kept him out of some of the early games and we were glad to see him return to his place on the line for the big games. Storch ' s loss will be felt next year, as he will be graduated in June. Richard Swan, he:ght 6 feet, weight 165, position tackle. Dick comes from Lawrenceville and proud they may be of the birds they produce. Dick was a hard worker and had the fight. The fact that he did not have any previous high school experience shows that he had the stuff to make good. Though Dick was not an oily riser, we are sure that he will make good in his present occupation as an oil magnate. Marion Decker, height 6 feet 1 inch, weight 165, position end. Spots is an old hand at Normal football, so when he returned to school in the middle of the season, the team re- ceived a big boost. Deck is a deadly, hard-hitting tack- ier, with plenty of speed. Many big gains were made through forward passes to him. We hear he is to take a whir! at col- lege football next year and we pred ict big things from him. Donald Watson, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 170, position center. Tubby came to us unhearalded from Athens, but came through well when called upon. He was adept at snapping the ball back and so developed into our most dependable center. We foresee that Tubb will have a good year next season with increased weight and experience. John Morgan, height, 5 feet 8 inches, weight 168, position quarterback. Jack came to us from Tunkhannock and from the start he showed marked ability calling signals and at tearing up the opponents ' lines. Due to injuries to his knee Jack was unable to take part in the last few games, but we trust that he will be with us again next fall on solid legs and thus due for a big season. Amos Crediford. height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 155, position end. Crediford was the type of player we like to see in action. He was in the game from the first kick-off to the final whistle, fighting for a victory. This was his first year at end and he surprised all by the ease with which he adapted himself to the position. We expect great work from him next year. 164 Graduate Manager. .Karl F. Van Norman Coach Kimble Marvin Manager Thomas O ' Boyle Captain William O ' Hara The basketball season was an unusual one, the team at times turning in some of the biggest victories in years, and at other times suffering a complete reversal of form. The first home games were lost through failure of the team to hit its stride especially in the matter of making points. When the team journeyed to Factoryville to meet Keystone Academy little hope was entertained in Mansfield for a victory, as Keystone had defeated Mansfield on the Normal floor. However, the team found itself in this game and turned in a splendid victory. Mansfield rose to the heights the following week when they defeated Jersey Shore N. Y. C. A. A. in the finest exhibition of basketball ever seen on the Normal court This team had defeated the best professional and college teams in this section of the country and had never before lost to Mansfield or any Normal team. This was their first defeat in two seasons. Dickinson Seminary was added to the list of our victories the following Saturday in the last home game of the season. , On the two remaining trips the team was below form and suffered defeat. Mansfield had an organized scrub team this year. Games were played with Westfield High School, Tioga Town Team, Mansfield Ex-Hi, Mansfield Ambulance Company, and others. Our coach this year was Kim Marvin, one of the best basketball men Mansfield ever turned out. 165 - - 1 i £ d ▲ ► . ■ {v(,-(( r.i( S l i CiJ j i t Kg ' r u _ M H lr .

The game was played a week after Christmas vacation and our boys, while playing a good defensive game, did not yet have their eyes on the basket. The game was played in eight minute quarters at Keystone ' s request and the shortened time was a factor in the defeat, as it was new to Normal Basketball. Keystone rolled up a lead in the first quarter which the Normal could not overcome, due to the hardest kind of luck in shooting. Captain O ' Hara and Williams played good floor games. ALUMNI— 23 MANSFIELD— 13 On January 17th we enjoyed the spectacle of seeing the Old Grads in action on the Normal court, although they handed the undergrads a 23-12 beating. The Normal showed splendid form and led at the end of the first quarter, 6-0. It began to look dark for the Alumni. At this point, however, Shultz celebrated his return to the Normal floor by two hair-raising shots from the side of the court and put the Alumni in the running. The half ended 8-6 with Doc Doane leaving the game due to shortness of wind after playing a much-applauded game. The second half the Alumni came back with a team made up of the youngest of the Alumni; men who had represented the Normal but a year or so ago, and they seemed more at home on the Normal floor than our present team. The result was a victory for the Alumni. O ' Hara and Kellerman starred for the Normal and Coach Marvin, Shultz, Smith and Decker for Alumni. STROUDSBURG— 41 MANSFIELD— 12 Stroudsburg Normal defeated Mansfield on January 24th in a one-sided game. Our boys played well but they were outclassed. The victors had an excep- tional team. Their center was probably the tallest man who ever played on the Normal court, as he was seven inches over six feet in height. The first half was a fairly even battle, as Mansfield was playing a wonderful defensive game and forcing Stroudsburg to the limit for her points. The second half, however, Stroudsburg got things going her way and ran up a big score. Our boys all played a hard game. 167 BLOOMSBURG— 32 MANSFIELD— 16 Bloomsburg- was our next visiter and was lucky to hit us on an off night. Due to a shake-up in the Varsity it was deemed advisable to start the second team, which had been working- well as a team in the ' r games. However, they were unable to hold Bloomsburg, who ran up a substantial lead before cur first string men could be sent in. The Varsity checked Bloomsburg, but the half ended with Bloomsburg still in the lead. Mansfield came back the second half and outplayed Bloomsburg in every department of the game. Bloomsburg scored but two field goals to Mansfield ' s six; Mansfield outscoring Bloomsburg in this half 12-7. Lloyd, O ' Hara, and Brace played star games for Mansfield. To those who saw the last half it was apparent that Mansfield had at last found a winning combination, and this was proven by subsequent victories. KEYSTONE ACADEMY— 23 MANSFIELD— 25 The team journeyed to Factoryville Fe! ruary 6th and won a splendid victory over Keystone Academy on Keystone ' s own floor. The Normal took the lead at the jump-off and was never headed. The Normal boys played a superb floor game and had at last struck their stride in making points. The half ended in Mansfield ' s favor 15-11. The second half was a repetition of the first. Keystone managed to tie the score at 18-18 in this half, but Mansfield again took the lead and led at the finish 25-23. It was a well played game and according to Keystoners, one of the best ever seen on their floor. Captain O ' Hara, Brace and Lloyd played outstanding games. JERSEY SHORE N. Y. C. A. PA.— 21 MANSFIELD— 22 Jersey Shore ' s fast tsam, which had been defeating all opposition came to Mansfield and lost to our boys in the best basketball game of the year. It was an evenly fought game from the first whistle till the last. Both teams were making their shots count and comparatively few shots were attempted as the guarding was close. Mansfield led at half-time, 11-10, having made five goals to their opponents four. As the second half progressed and neither team could get a substantial lead, the game grew more tense. With a minute and a half to go, and Jersey Shore leading by a point, our center was ruled out on personal fouls. Vannaucker, who was sent in, made a shot from the center of the floor in the last thirty seconds of play, giving Mansfield at 22-21 victory. For Mansfield, Lloyd, Brace and Vannaucker with their fine shooting and O ' Hara with his fine defensive work, featured. Muser, who was an All-Ameriean at Bucknell, starred for the visitors at center, although held to his lowest score of the season. 168 DICKINSON SEMINARY— 23 MANSFIELD— 24 Dickinson Seminary came to Mansfield on February 28th and suffered a defeat. The game was too one-sided the first half to be interesting. The Normal team scored almost at will and led at the end of the first half 12-4, with an easy victory in sight. The game leaned toward roughness and the second half was scarcely under way before three of our best men were forced out on personal fouls. With this help Dickinson soon evened up the score and it was a close battle from then on. Dickinson took the lead in the last minute of play, but a i retty shot by Bi ' ace tied the score 23-23. Kellerman was fouled in the last minute of play and made the shot, putting Mansfield in the lead as the game ended. Brace and Kellerman starred for the Normal. BLOOMSBURG— 31 MANSFIELD— 20 On March 6th the team left on a two-day trip to play return games with Bloomsburg and Dickinson. At Bloomsburg, our team showed the poorest form of the season and lost 31-20 in a game played on the afternoon of March 6th. The team showed tne results of the long trip to Bloomsburg and played ragged basketball throughout the first half. The second half was a little better, as Mansfield outscored their opponents 15-12. However, our team failed to show the splendid form that had carried them to victory in preceding games. Brace and Kellerman again led our scoring. DICKINSON SEMNINARY— 21 MANSFIELD— 14 The next night on the Dickinson Seminary court, Mansfield again met defeat. It was a slow, uninteresting game. Mansfield, although in poor shooting form, led all the first half and at half-time was still leading 9-8. The second half one after another of our men were sent out of the game on personal foul s until only one of the five who started the game was left. Fortunately a squad of twelve men had made the trip so Mansfield was able to finish the game. Seminary led by seven points at the finish. Both teams guarded closely. Seminary made four field goals to Mansfield ' s three. The rest of the points were made on fouls; Seminary making thirteen out of a possible twenty-six. Lloyd and Vannaucker played well. JERSEY SHORE— 25 MANSFIELD— 13 The last game of the season was played at Jersey Shore with the N. Y. C. A. A. of that place and resulted in a victory for our opponents. The game was fast and well-played, but Jersey Shore had the edge on our boys in shooting on their home floor. Mansfield played a splendid defensive game and Jersey Shore ' s own defense was almost impenetrable, so the score was comparatively low for the court. Our team scored the greater part of their points the second half as the first half ended 10-4. O ' Hara, Brace and Vannaucker did great work for Mansfield. 169 The Playefs William O ' Hara, Captain, heisht 6 feet 2 inches, weight 165, position center. Bill ' was the tallest man on the team and naturally occupied the pivot posi- tion. He has starred at center for the Normal for the past three seasons and is what we would call an experienced man. He captained the team very smoothly, never losing- command of the playing. Bill easily got the tap from oppos- ing centers with few exceptions. His floorwork and generalship were above par. He is a pretty shot and his shoot- ing at critical times has swung victory Mansfield ' s way. We regret that we lose Bill ' by grad- uation as his loss will be sorely felt in basketball as well as in baseball. Robert Kellerman, height 5 feet 10 inches, weight 16.5, position guard. Bob came to Mansfield with quite a reputation as a basketball player, and we must say he came through big for the Normal. Being big, fast, and experienced, Bo ' o soon won a berth on the Varsity, and developed into a fine running guard. He handled the ball well and had a habit of dropping in a couple of baskets a game. His work in the Jersey Shore and Dickinson Seminary games v as espe- cially noticeable. Kellerman has another year at M. S. N. S. and he should be a big factor in the completion of a succesiful season next year. Manford Lloyd, height .5 feet 9 inches, weight 160, position forward. Lloyd was one of our fastest men on the basketball court and lived up to the reputation he made in high school bas- ketball. S. Manford was always a good floor- man and a heady player on both offense and defense. His shooting featured our biggest games and was in part respon- sible for some of our big victories. He was high score man in the victory over Jersey Shore. Lloyd is well on his way towards three varsity letters in his first year at the Normal, as he has a reputation as a baseball player and so we look for big things from him again nex year. Joseph O ' Hara, height 6 feet 1 inch, weight 170, position guard. Joe was another of our big men and a strong man on the defense. He is seasoned in basketball, as this was his third year in Varsity basketball at the Normal. Ned held some of our opponents ' best forwards to very low scores and excelled in this brand. He was a hard fighter, always giving his best to the team. He was a clever floorman. We regret that he is to be graduated as we liked to see him in action, both on the basketball court and on the diamond, where he also stars for the Normal. 170 George Williams, height 5 feet inches, weight 155, position guard. 10 George was a veteran of a year and again proved to be a steady, reliable guard. He upset the dope occasionally by leaving his guard position to come dow n the court and ring in a basket. George was a hard worker and always fought to the last for a victory for the Nor- mal, a spirit we appreciated. George will be graduated this year and he will be missed. Meredith Vannaucker, height 5 feet 8 inches, weight 175, position guard. Van was our min-it man and proved to be our best bet as a shot in a pinch. He came out for the team after the season was well under way and so was used as an extra man. Van was sent in in the Jersey Shore game and made a spectacular shot in the last minute that decided the game. He continued to feature our home games with shots over the girders that will long be remembered. We hope Van will be back with us next year. Harold Brace, height 5 feet 8 inches, weight 140, position forward. Skeeter came to us with a splendid reputation as a basketball player and he still has it. He starred consistently for the crack Mansfield High team last year and proceeded to do the same for us. His shooting was the feature of most of our games and he was the highest scorer. We have heard that Skeeter played with a basketball in his cradle days and we believe it. We ' re hoping that he will be with us next year and help put Mansfield on top again. Percy Andrews, height 5 feet 9 inches, weight 160, position forward. Percy came to us from Lawrence- ville High with a reputation already made in basketball circles and soon adapted himself to the Normal environ- ment and became one of our most valu- able men. Perk is one of the fastest men in action that ever played on the Normal court, and a whirlwind dribbler. His shooting accounted for many of our points, as he continually broke away from his guards. We are expecting Perk to shine next year and in baseball this spring. 171 w H .J t } ca Q o O W o C CO a; pa c b « p. Qifls ' Basketball Captain Marguerite Keisc Manager Katherine Belknap Coach Lenore Ellison The girls have practiced faithfully this season and have developed a good team. Very few of the Normal schools in Pennsylvania have organized girls ' basket- ball teams and we should be proud of ours. The first game was with Corning Free Academy, resulting in a score of 8-7 in favor of Corning. No disgrace in losing, however, because it was a well-played and hard-fought game. Our girls must be commended for their clean playing and fine sportsmanship. The spirit of all athletics should be good sportsmanship and physical improvement combined with the spirit to win, but let us not in the desire to obtain any one of these overlook the others Other games scheduled were with Wellsboro High School and teams from Blossburg and Elmira. The Junior Class provided us with much good material for our team this year and will be able to represent our school very worthily next year. It is with regret that we bid goodbye to the team of 1925, as it was one of the most pleasant of our school activities. KATHERINE BELKNAP. CORNING FREE ACADEMY— 8 MANSFIELD— 7 The first game of the Girls ' basketball team was with Corning Free Academy on the Normal court and resulted in a victory for the Academy by the slim margin of one point. It was either team ' s game from start to finish, neither side having a decided lead at any time. Corning managed to be on the long end of the score when the final whistle blew. Crisman and Belknap starred for Mansfield. Miss Allard, of the Academy faculty, officiated. WELLSBORO HIGH SCHOOL— 6 MANSFIELD— 5 Wellsboro came to Mansfield and won a close game from our girls by the small scoi ' e of 6-5. Mansfield played hard and held this team to its lowest score of the season, but seemed unable to locate the basket herself. It was heart-breaking to lose another game by one point. Davis and McHale played well. ELMIRA INDEPENDENTS— 2 MANSFIELD— 6 The Girls ' Varsity came out of their slump in shooting to win the hardest game of the season from the Elmira Independents. Both teams guarded closely, but Mansfield ' s ability to make her shots count won for them. In this game, as in all the games, the girls ' fine passwork was noticeable. Manning, McHale and Davis played great games for the Normal. This game concluded the schedule of outside games, as the other games planned for failed to mature. 173 M Graduate Manager. .Karl F. Van Norman --• ' Coach Kimble Marvin Manager Henry Darrow Captain Peter Flosser Prospects are bright for a g-ood baseball team this spring. Three letter men are back in school and will form the nucleus of the team. We have also some splendid new material which should round out one of the best teams in years. New equipment was ordered and practice was well underway after the Easter vacation. We hear that Mansfield is to have a track team this year. It has been some years since this institution has been represented by a track team, but there is no reason why we should not turn out a winner with the fine material in the school. A relay team is to be sent to Philadelphia to participate in the University of Pennsylvaina relays, where, in former years, Mansfield was frequently the winner. Following is the baseball schedule: April 18— Mansfield High at Mansfield. April 25 — Bloomsburg Normal at Bloomsburg. May 1 — Cortland Normal at Mansfield. May 2 — Dickinson Seminary at Mansfield. May 9 — Bloomsburg Normal at Mansfield. May 13 — Cortland Normal at Cortland. May 15 — Penn State Freshmen at Mansfield. May 16 — Elmira Produce Co. at Mansfield. May 23— Cook Academy at Mansfield. May 30 — Alumni at Mansfield. - 175 INTERIOR OF SWIMMING POOL Girls ' Hour INTERIOR OF SWIMMING POOL Men ' s Hour Humor 177 Jok es Can you imagine a Junior dumb enough to think that the heating- plant was in the Green house?

Give me more of that soft stuff, said the Junior, as we had our first creamed eggs. Aldrich: This music makes me light-headed. Partner: ' Does it ever go to your feet? Freshie : They say that the swim- ming pool will soon be opened. Middler: Don ' t believe it; there ' s no hing in it. What ' s that lump on Bohdan ' s head? Oh! that was Smithy ' s fault. You see the other day Smithy drop- ped his false teeth from the fifth floor and yelled, Look out below? Well, what of it? ■ ' Bohdan looked out. Miss: Girls, you ' re not supposed to have ' Kimono Parties ' in that clothes press. I read my girl. Just like a book; That ' s why I hek On niv knee. her 178 How did Colegrove come to be such a wonderful orator? Ey addressing envelopes. A girl who is willing to take a joke, need never die an Old Maid. Glidden: Paul has the most charming way of proposing. Sally, Betty, Nellie, Ann (in chor- us) : Hasn ' t he, though. Ned: What are those fellows do- ing in the next room? Shang: I think they ' re talking about getting married. How ' s that? Shang: Why, I heard one of theni say that he ' d raise one and another said he ' d raise two. Harry: Where are you going with that gun? Clayt: I ' m looking for the little bird that tells my girl everything. Prof. Morgan : I notice that Mabel has an Inferiority Complex. Prof. Doughton : I hate those for- eign cars, don ' t you? The girls didn ' t win many games of basketball but Ihey showed ex- cellent form. Gerry: Whatever happened to Jack? Ann: ' The only thing he ever gave me was a cold, so I threw him over. Steve: Then you don ' t believe that I can make some girl happy? Betty Swartwood: Well, not ex- actly that, although she will always h:.ve something to laugh at. Russ Alden : Miss Wilkinson, can I take Janice Meredith out over the week-end? ' I can ' t imagine why Paul Powlock always wears a muffler. Because his ties are so loud. Coach Marvin : Chaffee, in what time did you do the hundred? Chaffee: In my Senior year at High. I wonder why it is that a girl can ' t catch a ball like a man. Oh! A man is so much bigger and easier to catch. You can never tell about a girl, and even if you could vou shouldn ' t. I ' ve often wondered where all the Smiths came from, muttered the co-ed as she read the sign — Smith Manufacturing Co. You don ' t have to have much of a pull with the girls to drag them to a movie. Gardner: My girl has only two faults. Ed: You and who else? 179 Fannie: Why do you say that Miss Bradt reminds you of the ' Old Oaken Bucket ' ? Dot: Because she ' s always hang- ing over the well. Prof. Strait: Clifton, name twen- ty-five birds that you have seen this spring. Doc : Twenty-three sparrows and two robins. Every time Sorber opens his mouth he puts his foot in it. You may think that some of these jokes are terrible, but some of the rejected ones were thrown into the stove, and the fire just roared. ' Marian tells some wonderful tales; she must travel a lot. No, but her mind wanders. Hess: That rouge certainly looks natural, I thought at first that it re- ally was your skin. Mary: ' ' It ' s the next thing to it, anyway.
