Anxious to reveal our gratitude to those who have aided us in taking this, one more of our edu- cational steps, we, Otto's second graduating class, have tried to express it through the medium of our annual. ln it, we have attempted to place things of in- terest to the student body and devotees of the school. Sports, activities, musical events and high- lights have been designed to interest all- under classmen as well as Seniors. We have done our best to malce this yearbook be the signitication ol: our worlc. Each class wishes its one concerted literary attempt to be better than the last and the Class of '38 has every reason to be- lieve that they have realized this goal. Extending every effort to please you in every way with this, our last and best proiect, we give you this- The Ottocrat ot l938 . 4 To Mr. Gerber, our guide and leader through- out liour tempestuous years, the graduating Seniors wish to dedicate their compilation of pleasant mem- ories of Otto l-ligh. Through all ol: our experiences working and playing together, we have liully appreciated his un- tiring effort, careful thought and helpful guidance. Always regarding him as a Friend to whom we could turn at any time lor advice and suggestion, we sincerely hope that he has enjoyed working with us as much as we have with him. It is with the deepest respect and gratitude that we present to him The Ottocrat of l938. r.1gef-.q,z.,....,,.1:,,,,. , .wwf f1'if1'4g?g-:gg 1Fc.Z.-2T?'f ?7 '.

Let us leave the busy cities With their harsh, discordant din, G0 and listen to the silence And commune with things within. Rest our eyes on snow-capped splendor, Or resplendent canyon deep, Watch the slowly spaning vulture O'er the placid grazing sheep. Life is like time and the vulture Soaring slowlyg soon to slay, 'Tis but a scene of light and shadow Which will soon be passed away. Now let's travel oier the sea Midst the wild winds that roar, See the vessels quickly sink Or safely sail to shore. Ours is like the life of the sea And men like vessels are tossed, With the guarding hand of Destiny To save us from the lost.

The March of Time I Time: September, 1935, to June, 1936. Setting: Otto High School. Characters: Forty Bewildered Sophomores. Plot: Soon after September, 1935, when our class was organized, We elected as our Class Adviser Mr. Cummings, and as our officers, President, Francis Feheleygvzice President, ' , , ' - ham, Treasurer, Shirley Fox. As Washington was the goal toward which We were headed, We set about raising money. Not much happened to help us this year except a Bean Supper and a St. Patrick's Dance. TIME MARCHES ON! Time: September, 1936, to June, 1937. Setting: Otto High School. Characters: The Rising Juniors. Plot: When we returned to school as Juniors, Francis Feheley, President, Richard Schorman, Vice President, Donna Harris, Secretary: and Robert McBride, Treasurer, were officers. We made our Junior year successful by selling magazines, having a Junior play entitled, The Poor Rich , an Otto Torpedo Banquet, and a Valentine Dance. Our place was firmly established when We had a Junior- Senior Prom in May. TIME MARCHES ON! Time: September, 1937, to June 1938. Setting: Otto High School. Characters: The Prosperous Seniors. Plot: The Seniors returned earnestly striving for success and to increase their Washington fund. The class officers for this year remained the same as last. We started early in the year with the Collins Festival, a series of Weekly entertainments. On December 10, We had a dance. The class also sponsored Dime Dances throughout the basketball season. The Seniors put on their annual dramatic production, this one entitled, No Soap, which was a grand success. Then on March 18 and 19, the biggest event of the Senior class took place-The Otto High Bazaar, which completed our financial status for our Washington trip. At last on April 11, We started on our memorial trip to Washington. We were gone one week and came back very tired but eager to start in school again and finish our last task, that of graduation. May 27 was Class Night and on June 1, We received our diplomas. This means the end of our never to be forgotten High School days.

' 1'-' Class Prophecy Q As in every one comes the yearning to know what has become of his old school mates, so it comes to me as I sit in the nursery of my grand- children. I am old and grey, my life almost finished-but still I have enough energy to find my friends of '38. Come with me. In starting on this search, I know immediately who I'll find in a chic little beauty shop. Maxim-3's Elite Shop. Yes, my old friend Maxine Burger, now quite old but manager and owner of this shop. Looking around, I dis- cover Mary Brewer, Esther Glass and Loraine Appleby, grey-haired ladies, sitting under the dryers. Mary says she owns a dress shop and Esther has married and is a proud grandmother like myself. On leaving the shop, I happen to look across the street. There blazes the sign, The Yeager Press. Crossing the street, I find Richard Yeager, editor and owner of his most ardent desire - a newspaper. While looking around, I discover Bill Seibert and Stanley Bishop in the ink and press room. They tell me they are waiting to take over the paper when old man Yeager dies - which will be soon fthey hopej. As I know Florence Wirtz had intentions of becoming a nurse, I inquire in a little restaurant as to where the hospital is. It happens that the person I ask is Hope Williams who is having lunch with Vesta Lilly. Sitting down, I have a bite while they tell me about our friends of former years. Florence, it seems, is the superintendent of a large hospital with June Schwab as its head surgeon. Jean McCandless and Alene Foster, have become efficient and popular nurses there. I learn, too, Irene Pierce and that mischievous Jim Shirey are happily married and spending a cozy old age in a little cottage bought for them by their many children. As I seemed to have consumed all the news from these two old school mates, I journey on. Almost immediately I hear my name spoken and know the speaker to be none other than the one and only Phil Wirtz. Phil, a distinguished and fine looking man, beckons to me from a taxi. I almost fall down while hurrying over to clasp him by the hand. Phil, I discover, has been coach at the State College and is now retired with a large income. While we talk, the taxi driver looks back and says, Say, aren't you Joan Shuman and Phil Wirtz of Otto High? It is Earl Baxter! Stub, as we 26 ,Vu .V . .

I U T T 0 C .re.D i .tra 9 3 8 call him, tells us that Earl Kahle, Bob Kelly, Rex Moyer, and he are the owners of every taxi stand in the city. He explains that they often take taxis out themselves to ascertain how to improve their service. Earl says that he took Betty Atkinson, Nayoma Sanderson and Celestine Rodgers on a sight-seeing tour through the city, only yesterday. They had just returned from a cruise around the world and were, according to him, look- ing young and chipper. Phil then asks me if I would like to visit his home so Earl drives us to a grand home on McBride Avenue, named after a large tractor manufacturer, Robert McBride. McBride's partner, Frank Feheley, and their superintendent, Russ Holtz, are a great asset to Bob, while in the Art Department, is Marion Appleby, advertising manager, who has made McBride Tractors the largest selling tractors on the market! When I leave Phil, there remain on my imaginary list nine people whom I had not seen or heard about. Meanwhile I, not being as strong as I used to be, begin to feel tired, so enter a near-by hotel, The Chase and Fox. Here I spend a most enjoyable evening reminiscing with them on the good old days at Otto. When the clock strikes nine, I excuse myself and go to my room. Just as I enter the elevator, two old people, laughing and talking, step into it, too. As the man says Donna I recognize them as Donna Harris and Leo Oestreich, a love match struck while Seniors. Speaking to them, I learn that they are visiting three of our former school- mates. Anxious to see them also, I go along to the fifth floor where we find Richard Schorman, retired oil man, still unmarried. Richard has kept his good looks but his hair is thin and grey. He tells us he has come here on an impulse-a feeling that a friend of his is to die. We laugh and continue talking. Upon leaving them, I see a plump little lady running toward the elevator and talking jerkily to her escort. Anne, I yell, and Ann McCord does the finest sit down strike I've ever seen. She, I learn, is hurrying to the opera for her daughter's debut. But before going she says my best friend, Helen Cuningham, is also going with her husband, Jack Voorhees. Ready for bed by now, I just reach my room as a queer feeling grips me and I fall on the bed. Thus the story ends and may the soul of Joan Shuman reach its eternal rest for her life ebbs away just as the grey-haired Richard predicted.

Working hard to record each week a complete and interesting account of our school events and ably aided by a student body that has furnished articles of general interest, the staff feels that this has been a successful method and are glad to know that their horn has produced many harmon- ious notes of Otto's progress and pleasures.

As a general rule, this driver begins his driving career during high school so it is the purpose of this club to help students acquire the neces- sary knowledge and develop the right attitudes necessary for a sports- manlike and safe driver. Our emphasis this year has been on proper attitudes such as courtesy, fair play afTd'tCTl'erance on'the highway. 'These are aliliiecessaryffor the successful operation of a car and having been quite thoroughly instilled in the minds of the club members, will form the basis of next year's work when we hope to have a car and give training along practical lines- actual driving.

This is done by studying plays, thereby furnishing better understanding and appreciation of them, and by actually participating in stage produc- tions. We feel these attacks have been successful because much has been gained in poise and stage presencel' this year. During the year, We have pantomined Nursery Rhymes and popular songs besides presenting two one-act plays, Confessional and Luncheon for Six. The former was centered around the evil that money can do to people in this modern age. Luncheon for Six, a farce about a young lady's pretending to be the family maid when there is a gentleman visitor, was Well accepted by the Duke Center P. T. A. Finally as a climax to the year's Work came Spring Dance, annual three-act play which Was a grand success. With money earned from previous plays, the club appropriated a sum of money to buy a spot light for the school. OFFICERS Richard Schorman ...,.. ................. ..... ........

The former was demonstrated first at Mount Jewett at the October 11 meeting at which Walter Chase, local president, was elected county presi- dent and then in Port Allegany, January 17, at the joint Hi-Y, Tri-Hi-Y Rally. The latter is revealed by twelve certificates received by our members because of their successful passing of a State Bible Contest held last year. After so much good work, Otto Chapter became hosts at a rally held March 25 and entertained their numerous guests with characteristic Ottonian hospitality.

Silver tea and candle light initiation started them off. A combined Girl Reserve- Hi-Y party kept the ball rolling, then they knocked the ten pins over with a barn dance, skating party and faculty tea. Along with these stirring and successful enterprises which lent zest to almost every month, the members gleaned beneficial information con- cerning association With people and different situations of youth such as choosing friends, overcoming shyness and control of speech. the years, and chalks up more and better scores for its followers!

That is the occupation of Scrapbook Club members. Every Tuesday shows a more complete scrapbook of the chosen subject of each girl, leading to - she hopes - the neatest and most adequate collection of the club. This will be judged later by Mr. Gerber. Individual books keep the members busy, but not too busy to combine efforts in making two books for the school.

Having as their goal the development of speed and accuracy, the development of artistic typing and the improvement of typing power, these seven students worked diligently at-their keyboards. As a result, each week showed improvement and the final tests found every individual typing at a competent rate thereby justifying the old adage, Practice makes Perfect.

Apparently not because the Poster Club, although having only seven members has had a hand in every event in the school. Faithfully have they worked to get out posters which would convey Otto's main attractions to the public. As a result musicals, plays, the Ottocrat, the P. T. A's, and the Senior Class have reaped much benefit from the club. The most popular methods of poster making call for colored cardboard, tempera paints, and lettering brushes the newest of which are of steel and grand for straight lettering. With these in hand, members then let their imaginations run in circles, squares, triangles, and angles, until they ind a suitable design to work their letters into. Once the idea is worked out, the poster is quickly finished. Always trying to create new and unique ways of putting their ideas across, members have worked out posters using cut-out colored-paper letters on dark cardboard.They feel that this idea is both attractive and interesting besides giving every one new experience in lettering methods. Another un- usual method is that of drawing an illustration to represent the event adver- tized and bringing the letters into the foreground over the illustration. It proved quite effective and will probably be utilized more often in the future.

At the beginning of the year the membership is divided into committees of three each and each committee has charge of at least two meetings dur- ing the year.

Each year boys are selected who are thought to be the most able and trustworthy for this responsible position. Much of the boys' time is spent on their work and they are Well paid for their efforts at the end of the year when the most deserving are sent to Washington, D.C. We regard these boys in our highest esteem as persons who Will try their best to protect the children in our school. Their Work is to watch the street crossings, bus stops and dangerous places where there is most liable to be an accident and it is obviously suc- cessful as We are Very proud to recognize that there never has been a fatal accident during the reign of the patrol.

Beginning with the taking of a picture with a pin-hole camera, developing the film and printing the picture, we have advanced to the more complex roll film camera. Each member is expected to develop a roll of film and print the negative. t although the very nature of the project and the limited dark room facilities limit the number who can belong. In the matter of equipment, We have added a roll film developing tank and hope to get new and other up-to-date materials next year.

These tournaments proved very beneficial as well as interesting and promoted general enthusiasm in the game throughout the student body. Besides this popular game, the Juniors had tumbling and pyramids to occupy their time while the Seniors had exercises on the parallel bars such as forward rolls, chest and shoulder balances. Mixing work with play and fun, the team learned many skills which they had a chance to demonstrate March 17 in an assembly program which included stunt patterns, exercises and those 'tfamousv pyramids.

These two groups go under one caption- the Gym Team. The purpose of this team is to enable boys interested in the same thing to assemble one period a week and practice gym skills on the gym apparatus. Of this apparatus the parallel bars are probably the most useful and the first group specializes in rolls - hip, forward, and backward, swings - knee and giant, and hand and shoulder stands. Simultaneously, those learning Phe art ofboxing are given instructions and practice in leading, punching, feinting, footwork and protection of the body. Through the activity of both of these divisions, the individual boy learns not only efficiency of performance but how to work with others and endure hard knocks and derisive laughs which make him a better sport and more able to meet life's problems.

Jewett, and Smethport where they won prizes five different times. Since then the mem- bership has been increased by 25, making a total of 60, and the technique and quality of music presented has improved immensely. This was reliably demonstrated October 15 when the Senior Band combined with the Junior in giving their first full evening's concert, which was felt to be a decided success. Various other school events, especially assembly and athletic games, have benefited from the bandls presence. Further activities of the school year include competition in the State Contest, broadcasting over radio station WHDL and a massed band concert with Bradford High and Brad- ford Township.

Being permitted to watch the performers through Uglassed in broadcasting and television studios, the audience en- joyed new and interesting music as well as novel and unique stage settings. One outstanding feature of the entire program was a real honest-to- goodness 'tone hoss-shay with a group of snow-covered youngsters en- acting The Winter Song. Other scenes depicted included the medicine man's maneuvers around his tepee whose top was graced by the hooting owl. From the pine trees emerged the Big Brown Bear at whose appearance the traveler vanished into the woodlands. Summer climes bring to mind mammy in f'lVIighty Lak A Rose, The Gypsy Boys' Camp Song, and our unusual animal, Little Glow-worm. The fascinating rhythm and vivid costumes were portrayed by dancers in The Czechoslovakian Dance Song. The band broadcast featured a clarinet solo and bell lyra solo with band accompanist beside a clever novelty entitled The Three Trees. All of these presentations included the Girls' Chorus, Boys' Chorus, Girls' Ensemble, Boys' Quartette, Reed Quintette, German Band, Junior High School Chorus and Brass Quartette.

Crossing the British Channel into France, they made a southwestward land tour to India which kept them busy observing the living con- ditions, dress, customs and habits of the different peoples they visited. As a result of their observation, they learned new and interesting facts about their friends across the ocean and came to understand and appreciate them more. From Calcutta they returned by boat, stopping at the Philippines before reaching New York, the home harbor. As an apt conclusion to this year of travel, they visited the industries of Pittsburgh, a place of less distance but as much interest to us as the Mysterious Calcutta. ,QF E ICERS ,W H Francis Holden .... .... ....,,........... , . .....,..,....

To elaborate on the types of projects we strive to complete would be to name such intricate and precise work as oil painting on paper, linoleum block printing, pen and ink drawings, and other types of problems. Two of the boys, Clifford Teuscher and Darrel Blauser, recently completed a set of pencil drawings done with HB, 2H, and 3H pencils. The result was a great satisfac- tion to them as they had done no work of its kind before. Another project that seemed very successful when completed, was a horse's head painted in oil on ordinary unbleached muslin. Edwin Milliron labored for many periods shades and tints. Herbert Layfield and Paul Cauvel produced some very interesting stringed marion- ettes. One was a caricature of Popeye, the others were of a wolf for the puppet show, Red Riding Hood, and a negro announcer to be used in the show. Other types of problems that are yet to be completed are wood carvings, clay plaques, plaster-of-Paris plaques, and frescol painting. Anyone interested in seeing our work is welcome to our annual Art Exhibit in the high school gym May 7.

The team, with little experience but lots of spirit, battled tough opposition to win four, lose three, and tie two games - a relatively successful season. GAMES Otto opened the season at Eldred. In this game lack of experience was Very evident and both teams got off to a very shaky start. The only scoring threat came in the second quarter after a sustained drive by Otto, but a fumble prevented a score. The result was a scoreless tie. In the second game of the season at Smethport, the Terrors tasted their first defeat. The boys, although showing great defensive power and marked improvement, were unable to withstand the vicious touchdown drives of their opponents. Otto got her only score on a safety and Smethport took the game 7-2. Otto played her second tie with Canisteo in her second home game. The Blue and Gold squad outplayed their opponents all the way through but fumbles inside the ten yard line proved fatal. Although they gained an 11 to 2 advantage in first downs, the score was 6 to 6. Victory number one came at Port Allegany. Even though the teams were about matched in size, the Otto eleven dominated for three quarters with a pass from the ten netting the first score and a return of punt by Herald accounting for the second. But in the last periods, Port awoke and the Terrors fought hard to retain their lead until the game ended 12-0. Youngsville, in the fifth game, presented a much larger squad than Otto's but were compelled to bow to a team playing some of the best ball of the year and displaying unusual power. The Terrors excelled throughout the game. Otto - 12, Youngsville - 0. Allegany was represented by a team nearly our size. It became evident early in the game that the winner would have to play hard football. The teams battled on even terms for three periods but late in the game the Otto squad opened up with some seemingly inspired football which netted 13 points and a well earned 13-0 victory. In the seventh game, the local grid warriors met defeat at the hands of a large, hardy Bradford J. V. team. Although sadly out-weighed, the boys held their opponents in check for three periods until a blocked kick, covered by Bradford for a score, decided the contest. Result: Bradford 7, Otto 0. The Otto boys journeyed to Coudersport for the fourth win of the season. Although showing a decided slump in pep and drive, they excelled during most of the game but merely threatened the goal. Finally, stimu- lated by Coudy's proximity to scoring, they rallied and took the hon- ors 7-O. The closing game of the seascn was played at Portville where the boys met a team which they seemed unable to stop and were given the worst trimming of the year. The first half was a non-stop Portville drive but in the second Otto improved - too late to greatly improve their status. Score: Portville 31, Otto 6. 71 - - :. - - U TT U I'iCf.f .'.- if-7Al 1 1 'il-? 9 3 8 Football Senior Briefs RICHARD SCHORMAN: Dick was a fine end on both offense and defense. He was a good pass receiver and few gains were made in his territory. FRANCIS FEHELEY: Frank, a quick thinker and active captain and center, made beautiful tackles. He never failed the team or the school. PHILIP WIRTZ: Phil was a hard driving fullback and a very good blocker. He also made nice tackles and passes as Well as being Wide awake on pass defense. ROBERT KELLEY: Bob, an efficient guard, was an alert defensive man along with being a hard blocker. EARL KAHLE: Fuzzy, in spite of his lack of experience, was a helpful player. Earl was often out of competition with a bad shoulder. WILLIAM SEIBERT: Porky had plenty of brawn and used it to great advantage in smashing plays directed around his end. Tough on both offense and defense. LEO OESTREICH: Mose was one of our most consistent ground gainers. He Was good on running interference and a hard tackler. Always a valuable player. STANLEY BISHOP: Stan was a hard driving tackler and was in there all the time - opening holes and spilling the opposition for losses. REX MOYER: Baldy had plenty of beef but was handicapped by his indolent atti- tude. He lacked experience but was a noticeable help to the team. WALTER CHASE: Walt combined fine blocking and good tackling to make an excel- lent player. Besides being an elusive runner, he Was a good signal caller. 72 y1.:g.p-gr Y f 5-5-1 - -1 1 5. Qi ' Z .

After a hard week's drill on fundamentals, the squad was cut to twenty-one boys who formed both the Varsity and Junior Varsity teams. Only two lettermen, Oestreich and W'irtZ, returned to the Varsity from last year's team and placed among the ten highest individual scorers in the league even though both missed several games because of injuries. These two lettermen along with Baxter, Seibert and Shelley formed one combination. Alternating with them were E. Kahle, T. Kahle, Matthews, Bishop, Kelly and Moyer. The latter of the groups proved to be superior on defensive play while the first group, led by Captain Oestreich, held the scoring power for Otto. Although the efforts of the team brought no outstanding success in the way of winning games, several members distinguished themselves by ' ' ' riormances-., and as a whole the team gained recognition as the cleanest and most sportsmanlike players in Class B League. Due to their outstanding playing as Sophomores, much is expected of Matthews and Shelley who should form the nucleus of strong teams for the next two seasons.

The team won six of its nine-game schedule and showed its best form at Coudersport and Bradford. At times their playing lacked finesse and teamwork just as any inexperienced team does, but the boys have the qualifications necessary for making Class UB champions -height, speed and accuracy of shooting. By diligent practice on fundamentals and living up to good training rules, they should accomplish the thing for which Otto High is waiting. Best of luck, boys, and here's to many successful games!

Scores were no indication of the general tenor of the games because from the time the referee's whistle started the action until the timers blew the final signal, the game was in constant motion. Enthusiasm and pep eminated from every player and were the team's chief characteristics. GAMES After the first few weeks of strenuous practice under a new coach and the new system, the girls started their season with a game against Port Allegany on their own court. The game was fast and Otto held her own until after the third quarter when Port showed a scoring spurt and won 34-17. The second game was played with Eldred girls at Eldred. Again our girls proved successful till after the second half, but then the team slowed up and as a result the Eldred girls gained their first victory. The return game with the Port Allegany girls proved the most exciting one of the season. The score was very close and the game ended with a 16-16 tie. The girls showed great spirit and pep during the game and were on their toes every minute playing their best for O. H. S. The last game of the season was played on Otto's floor with the Eldred girls. The game was very fast and smooth due to hard playing on the part of the Seniors who were playing their last game for Otto. It was very closely played thereby making the crowd more enthusiastic and although the girls did not win in scoring, they certainly won in good sportsmanship and effort. 76 . .2 - -nr: -ff: ern' 1 .'.':l5f'1.-91221 : -,-2.11 '-r - 'J' '-'5 -' ,, .,.

Such weather! Lunch at Mt. Union found it perfect and we arrived at Gettysburg late Sunday afternoon, toured the battlefield and had a lovely dinner that evening at the Gettysburg Hotel. We then proceeded on to Washington and arrived there about 10:30 p. m. and went immediately to the Continental Hotel where everyone received rooms and went to bed. The first thing Monday morning, of course everyone wanted breakfast. We ate at a lovely Child's Restaurant throughout our stay in Washington. After breakfast everyone boarded the bus and proceeded to the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, the Washing- ton Monument and the Pan American Building. In the afternoon we went to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. After a very interesting tour of this large building, we spent the rest of the afternoon at the Smithsonian Institute. The evening was open to the stu- dents and many took in the high-lights of Washington - Fred Waring and Cab Calloway. Tuesday, the hottest day in Washington, many boys were in their shirt sleeves and complaining already of the heat as we visited the Folger Shakesperian Library, Con- gressional Library, the most beautiful building in the world, the United States Supreme Court, United States Capital, Senate, House of Representatives and the White House. In the afternoon we again boarded the bus for Alexandria, Mt. Vernon, and Arlington National Cemetery, the latter of which contained the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. On our way back to Washington, we stopped at the Lincoln Memorial which was very stately and impressive. The evening was open again and we went to see more of Wash- ington. Wednesday morning everyone was ready early for a full day. Touring the Franciscan Monastery, the residential sections of Washington, the Episcopal Cathedral, and the Na- tional Zoological Park made a good day's trip after which we returned to our hotel to pack our bags for Annapolis. There the grounds presented many interesting things and the next stop was Baltimore. The State of Marylandl' took us to Norfolk, Va. and music, dancing and games were enjoyed on the boat. Thursday we arose at 6:30 and took special buses for a trip through Virginia, including the United States Naval Base, Mariner's Museum, Williamsburg and Newport News, the College of William and Mary and thus back to the boat. After a wonderful banquet that evening, music and dancing were again enjoyed. As a result Friday morning found us reluctant to leave for Philadelphia and points closer home. In Philadelphia we had a sight-seeing trip and time to shop in the afternoon. There the Robert Morris Hotel was our shelter. The evening being open to the students, many were entertained by Glen Gray. The next morning at 7 o'clock we left Philadelphia for Harrisburg. Arriving there about noon, we ate in Woolworth's Cafeteria and after a tour of our own beautiful cap- ital building and the Forum of the State Education Building, we had a couple of hours to shop but most of the students were too tired and broke to think of anything like that. After leaving Harrisburg, we stopped at The Hunting Valley Inn where we were served with a wonderful dinner. As everyone was in a hurry to get home, we left there early and arrived home quite unexpectedly at 9:30 p. m. instead of 10:30, and what a re- ception! No one was there but everyone was so happy that it didn't matter much. It is a trip that will always be remembered, not only for the wonderful time we had but for the marvelous sights we saw. 80 ,K .A .,, A wwwvwr , -1'A,1 I1f,'wH' ' ff -sew f M. C.

The weather man, knowing the financial status of our poor class, gave us beautiful weather both Friday and Saturday nights. On March 7 plans were begun at a meeting of the students and parents. Action was taken immediately for the planning of the booths and supplies. The evening of March 17 the booths were set up and decorations started. The parents and students both worked exceedingly hard to get ready for the event, and not in vain. On Friday night the halls were packed and each booth added to the quaintness of the occasion. The people enjoyed fully these beautifully colored booths. The fortune teller and the movies, and the music of The Elks, Purple Band in the Gym attracted a larger crowd for Saturday night. It seemed to us that each one enjoyed himself so much Friday night that he brought his friends and came again Saturday night. In every way, and especially financially, it was a gratifying success, and the receipts were such that all necessary money was provided for our annual Washington trip. The booths at our most successful bazaar were as follows: Booth Chairmen Advisers Candy Nayoma Sanderson Mr. Sanderson Esther Glass Irene Pierce Vesta Lilly Hope Williams Baseball Earl Baxter Mr. Fred Kahle Earl Kahle William Seibert Bingo Robert McBride Mr. Oestreich Joan Shuman Mr. Shuman Leo Oestreich Blanket Chances Helen Cunningham Mr. Cunningham Checkroom Robert Kelley Mr. Kelley James Shirey Mr. Holtz Dance Frank Feheley Mr. McCord Dartball Philip Wirtz Mr. Wirtz Rex Moyer Door Stanley Bishop Mr. Atkinson Russell Holtz Fishpond Marion Appleby Mrs. Foster Donna Harris Mrs. Fox Alene Foster Flowers Maxine Burger Mrs. Burger Fortune Telling Lunch Counter Needlecraft Penny Booth Penny Booth Picture Show Treasurer June Schwab Ann McCord Richard Schorman Jean McCandless Celestine Rodgers Mary Brewer Florence Wirtz Betty Atkinson Walter Chase Richard Yeager Junior Class Shirley Fox 82 Mrs. McCord Mrs. Holtz Mr. McCandless Mr. Foster Mrs. Wirtz Mrs. Atkinson Mr. Chase Mrs. Reigel Mr. Fox Mr. Sweitzer m - - V . ..1i'f1-F'Z n' J. ,N 1.1. ., , .. . ,Af-e, 3-rar... ..
