Port Allegany Union High School - Tiger Lily Yearbook (Port Allegany, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1928 volume:

A PRICELESS PRIVILEGE OIJTH has been called the Golden Season of foolishness for which the wise would barter all their wisdom, the rich all their wealth and call it a bargain, knowing the value of Youth. aES—Youth with with its hopes;—its ambitions; —its ideals;—is a priceless privilege. Too often are its riches squandered. Too lace do we realize it is gone forever. OF you, who today have priceless Youth, may it never be said that you have wasted its substance. Now is the time to lay the sure foundation for a happy tomorrow—building with the stones of Knowledge, Industry, Thrift, right thinking. m g AKE Youth not the Golden Season of Foolishness but the Golden Season of Opportunity.

CLAUD BERG—’BERGET Bergie is the Senior shiek, basket ball star, president of the Athletic Association, manager of the Executive Council, also of the football and basket ball teams. What more could you expect of a man? However, Bergie has one weakness which we cannot fail to mention and that is women. Oh Boy! he sure knows how to handle 'em. He is always good natured and out for a good time, but when it comes to reciting in class we all look to Bergie. He intends to take up social studies in some higher institution, and here’s to his certain success! BENJAMIN BURT—‘ BENNIE’ “Faithful Bennie.” He is well deserving of this phrase because he is one of those lads who wants an education badly enough to sacrifice a little pleasure for it. Whenever anyone wants a favor, Bennie is willing to oblige them if possible. He is a member of the Agricultural Department, and due to his project work, won a prize in the project contest at Harrisburg. Bennie’s car has for a long tim been one of the outstanding features of the scenery about the school house. KENNETH CARD—' BUTTERFLY” This studnt decided that he would like to be in our class, so he left his worthy classmates of last year and came to the brilliant Class of '28. There has been some discussion as to why he did this, and final reports are that a certain female members in our class, to whom he has pledged his heart, is the attraction. Butterfly always likes to spring surprises, and he does this often in English Class. For example, he hands in an essay of twenty-five hundred words on some unimportant author. MARJORIE CASKEY—“MARGE” Marjorie, coming from Wrights, joined our ranks when we were Freshmen. She readily won the admiration of her classmates and has proved to be a valuable member of the class. She recently exposed her literary ability by voluntarily contesting in a Lincoln Essay Contest and winning the beautifully engraved medal. She displayed her willing nature by being active on committees and working with the class. Marge intends to become a nurse, and we are sure she will succeed, as her smiling countenance would make a sick person well and a well person better. NATALIE CHESBRO—“NAT” Natalie may also be classed among the few talented literary members of the class of '28. She has won prizes from her writings, and is now on the Bugle staff as Senior reporter. One of the outstanding characteristics ot this lass is her frankness. She is not ashamed to give her honest-to-goodness opinion on any subject regardless of what her hearers may think or how much they criticize. Every member of the class will miss her favorite expression, EDGAR COLEMAN—“GARHEART” One of the most popular boys of our class. Always waiting with a helping hand to do some service to the class. This was proved when he was elected one of the members of the National Honorary Society. At all dances and school activities Edgar is sure to be present to show all the girls a good time. His favorite flower is the “Marguerite,” a flower not so common but that which holds a very prominent place in his heart. Edgar has been an outstanding leader since his Freshman year. He is “not at the top, but climbing.” and we know that he will soon be at the top. AVROM DICKMAN—‘‘DICK,, The salesman of the class. Dick can make a sale where all others fail. If you doubt this statement just let him get sight of you when he has something to sell. Our prophesy is that youMl buy it! Our genius has imitative ability as shown by his success on committees and satisfactory filling of class offices. To top off his high school career he built up a dance orchestra composed of high school fellows with Dick himself at the piano. From the piano he is going to the pipe organ, and we hope to be enjoying his music over the radio soon. He seems to prefer the “Long” notes. GORDON EDGAR—“BUMPY” The treasurer of our class. The class showed their appreciation of his good work when they re-elected him. Although he is not very big, Bumpy has proved himself efficient on the football field. He is a very reliable chap and never causes any trouble to the teachers. We are somewhat doubtful as to his future occupation but it is rumored that he strongly leans toward a “Baker.” CLARENCE ELLISON—“SCRUFFY” A great leader in the Tannery Tough Baseball Team and perhaps some day the star twirier for the New York Yarilcs. He is also one of Port's best linemen on the football squad. He is a quiet fellow until he comes to Spanish Class and then, Oh Boy! You’d think the Nicaraiiga rebellion had started again. He is a willing worker when it comes to helping the class earn money for the Washington •Trip. His future ambition is not known, but we hope it will be a success. T MARGARET EARNER—“FAT” Distinguished among her classmates because of her excessive weight. She is one of the outstanding gfcflfcfe of the champion basket ball team of 1928. She is frequently seen in the Prof’s office after school. We wonder why? She is very jolly and always ready for a lot of fun. She has a very beautiful voice and is often seen on the . fage rendering solos. She is an active member on all committees and always willing to work. Her future ambition is to be a physical educator, and here’s to your success, Fat. RUTH PERM—‘ ‘ RUTHIT A Ruth, being one of the most popular girls in high school, has been an inspiration to the whole class. When discouraged all we need is a taste of her good nature. When it comes to playing the piano she can’t be beaten. She is always the life of the party, and her witty remarks are enjoyed by all. Ruth has held many class offices, and can be depended upon to give the best she has, which is much better than the average. “Goodby, Ruth. It won’t be long now,” as of course He is hoping. ROBERT FORTNER—1-BOB’’ Bob’s approach toward the schoolhouse from his home at Wrights can easily be detected by his rambling “flivver.’’ Just the same he gets there and uses his time to the best advantage when he does. The above statement is confirmed by his being elected a member of the National Honorary Society. Preparing his lessons and speaking are hi-? hobbies. His future success, no doubt, lies in the field of agriculture, and we wish him lots of luck and success. GEORGE GRABE—“GRABA” Our class president. George has always worked hard for his class, but still never neglects his school work. He is a very quiet chap and the fair sex does not interest him. He is one of the members of the National Honorary Society and has shown his merit on the football field as McKean county’s best center. He is a born leader and uses his good judgment in all his undertakings. He intends to continue his studies at State College, and we are sure that success awaits him there. LEONA HASKINS—“TONY” Leona is a very quiet girl—never having much to say, but when it comes to her school work, Leona sure is on the job. She is neve-satistied even by her best work. She always is thinking “It can be better.” She is willing to do all she can for her class, everyone admiring her for her high scholarship and dignity. We here wish you all kinds of success in your future undertakings, Leona. RONALD HUNTER—“PUSSY” Widely famous as a football player; and due to his lootball playing he has acquired many female friends, in nearby towns to whom he still sticks. Seme time ago Hunter began work on an aeroplane, and he sure has done some fine work on it. It is far from a toy and we all really expect him to fly soon. Pussy is a very “stand-pat ’ sort of a fellow and does not choose to be trampled on. Like the rest of the class Hunter has for his motto “Aim High.’ We hope he strikes his goal and we are sure he will. RUTH JOHNSON—'-DIZZY” A very lively member of the Senior Class. She deserves much credit for her faithful ser-vics in cheer-leading during the last three years. At all school activities Ruth is sure to be present and helps to make them a big success, as was shown at the football banquet this year. She is liked by everyone, especially the young men from nearby towns. A new boy friend every Monday morning. Her chief hobby is coming late for school, always stating for her excuse that the clocks must be wrong. And here, your classmates join in wishing you success, Ruth. NAOMI JUNE—“CHUG” Our honor student and willing worker. Naomi joined our class in her Junior year, and has won the love and admiration of all her classmates. Her name often appears on the honor roll, and helping the rest of us with our work means nothing to Naomi. It is rumored that the ring that Naomi wears on the third finger of her left hand means only love and happiness in the future, and all her classmates join in wishing her success. CARL LINNAN—‘•DUCKFOOT” A genius when it comes to cracking jokes on his friends at their expense. Full of fun, oftentimes bursting out in laughter to the awe of the other pupils. At the beginning of the year his hair became very unruly and he found himself in dire necessity of a “Newcomb.’' He certainly acquired this necessity and try and get “her!” He is perfectly at home on football field and basket ball court, doing his share in winning victories on both. In the near future we are sure of seeing him famous as an electrician. RUBY LOVELL—‘ ‘SKEETER “Our Bride.’’ Ruby has been an active member of our class through our high school career having held several class offices. She also has been active on all committees. Ruby was one of our star forwards on the girls' basket ball team. In March she sprang the greatest surprise of the school year by becoming the bride of Kieth McKervy. Congratulations and best wishes for many years of happy married life. HELEN E. NEWLAND—‘-HEN” Helen has been a member of our class since we started in our school career, and has been an indispensable member throughout. Her motto is “work before play.” and when playtime comes Helen is there to participate. She is always on duty, whether it be early or late and can always be relied upon, no matter how great the task. Helen never causes any trouble to classmates or faculty, and we are sure that she will make a name for herself in whatever she undertakes. Helen’s future plans are still unknown to us. but we are sure that she will never be heard of as a physics teacher—we wonder why!! CLYDE NORDSTROM—“A. J ” A born magician. At all school entertainments and exercises Clyde affords a great deal of amusement in “slight of hand. Full of pep and energy he has been one of the most active promoters in helping the class achieve the high reputation which it now holds. Clyde is often found going from house to house, collecting papers, selling tickets and rendering other services to help the class earn money for the Washington Trip. Clyde has never been known to get angry and a sorrowful person could not remain with him long before they would forget all their troubles. ALICE PARSON—' AL” Always seen but seldom heard is Al's motto. She often sits with her head down, and when a glimpse of her face is seen, it is always covered with a broad smile; this is almost invariably followed by a roar of laughter. Once in a great while Alice likes to have people know she is around, and she takes the opinion negative to the majority, getting everyone in a state of anxiety, upon which she bursts out in laughter and joins the crowd. Neverthless, “Al holds a warm place in the hearts of her classmates. EDWIN PFEIL—“EDDIE” The class comedian, and this he is without a doubt. He came to us in his Junior year from Pittsburgh, and for a long while thought that Pitt was just it; but gradually changed his mind from Pitt to “Crosby.n Eddies avocation is dancing, and he sure can strut his stuff. School studies are the least of his troubles, but when it comes to football, track and baseball—that's where Eddie shines. His chief hobby is sleeping in class, but perhaps this is not his fault alone. CHARLES PLUNKETT—'‘CHARLIE” The most bashtul boy in High School. He never even casts a glance toward any girl, but perhaps he is just as well off. Studies and work are primary factors in his life. He is often of much assistance to the other pupils by answering a question which perhaps was not even heard stated by the others; therefore being a friend in need. We think that Charlie will be a farmer in the future, and we know he will make as much of a success of it as he has his other enterprizes. TWILA REDINGTON—“RED” Twila has always been held in very high esteem among her classmates. She is often found serving at the Senior suppers and all other activities, always working with an untiring effort. Twila doesn’t like to study much and seems to get along without it. We wonder why! She finds no time to spend with the opposite sex—perhaps she is just as well off. Everyone considers her as a friend because of her cheerful attitude at all times. We are certain that success awaits her in the world. EDWIN SKADEN—“EMO” Emo does not take up much room, but say! he is the biggest little man in high school. He ranks among the first in scholarship, and is a member of the National Honorary Society. He is always active on committees and other class activities. Because of his literary ability, he has been class reporter for some time. To make a long story short, Emo is a real good fellow and a friend to everyone. National Jinnoru Society One of the highest honors which our school can confer upon its graduates is election as a member to the National Honorary Society. Each year as the school year comes to an end, comes the choosing of the members to this Society. Only members of the Senior Class are eligible to belong to it. Twenty-live per cent of the class, those ranking highest in their work throughout their school career are considered by the faculty. However, only fifteen percent of the students are chosen with respect to Scholarship, Leadership, Character and Service to the school. Those chosen from the Class of ’28 as members to this Society are: Edgar Coleman, Robert Fortner, George Grabe and Edwin Skaden. The entire student body wishes to congratulate them through this publication. aljr (Fuxrr £ilu iiistoru of the Class of 1928 We, the members of the c'ass of 1928, started our High School career early in the autumn of 1924. As green freshmen we were enrolled in old P. A. H. S. almost sixty strong. However we were not yet officially regarded as members of the High School by the upper classmen. No, we had to first attend a reception given us by those more mature beings. This affair known as the Freshman Reception, was dreaded alike by all classes when they first were ushered into this place of higher learning. We were no exceptions and so attended this sordid affair with misgivings, quaking hearts and other manifestations of fear. After being dealt with in the usual manner, that is with belts, paddles and other implements equally as fearsome, we were treated as guests should be treated, but when refreshments were served it was very noticeable that we preferred to eat standing up. Thus ended our first “social function.” The year passed quickly by our class mixing work with play in the proper way. Parties, a sleigh-ride, picnics and meetings all helped to make the year go faster. Our class united with the Sophomores and Juniors in promoting the first inter-class sleigh-ride ever taken there. Almost the whole school with the faculty went to Roulette on this trip and everyone enjoyed themselves to a marked degree. Our class gained a place in sports even this early when two of our number gained their letters in track. The officers for our first year were: Presidents, George Grabe and Thomas Springer: Vice President, Edwin Skaden; Secretaries, Rose Shevak and Ruth Johnson; Treasurers, Lawrence Grigsby and Anna Martin ; Class Advisor, Miss Wolfe. Upon the reopening of school the next fall we changed our scholastic residence to the new school on Arnold Avenue. Our Sophomore year was a success in every way. The scholastic standing of our class was of the highest and our athletes were making a name for themselves in the various branches of athletic endeavor. That year we had at least two lettermen in all three spox-ts. The class showed that they were not lacking when it came to other phases of school life. Several excellent chapel programs were put on by our class. The class pai-ties and picnics also went over big. Again a sleigh-i-ide was the pi-edominant affair of the year. The other membeis of the High School began to look upon us as a par-ticularly endowed group in regard to brains, ability and originality. The officeis who served that year were: President, Lawrence Gi’igsby; Vice Presidents, Ruth Ferm and Gor-don Edgar; Secretaries, Anna Martin and Avrorn Dickman; Treasureis, Carl Linnan and Edwin Skaden; Class Ad-visois, Mr. Davis and Miss Kieser. And now the half-way mark was passed in our High School education. In our Junior year we made unusual successes of several impoi'tant affairs of the year. The first, the Fresh-man Reception, was greatly enjoyed by all who attended except maybe those most vitally concerned. The initiation was one of the best and after- Shr JTigrr iCtly wards the evening was spent most en-joyably in dancing. The music, decorations and refresnments were all good. One of the most elaborate affairs ever put on in this High School was the annual Junior Prom given by our class for those graduating from school. Through the co-operation of our mothers we were able to put on a Prom that surpassed anything before attempted in P. A. H. S. It was held at Canoe Place Inn wnere a wonderful banquet was served at 6 :30 on April 27th. After partaking of uiis feast the evening was spent in dancing, music being furnished by Fitch Brothers famous orchestra. The Senior Class of ’27 congratulated us on our marvelous Prom. We held several other parties during the year and all in all the Juniors helped to make the year a social, scholastic and athletic success. In the spring a baseball game was played to determine whose banner would wave over the school. Again our athletic powers were proven when our team decisively defeated the one from the opposing classes. We showed our discretion as in other years in the choosing of officers. For our Junior year they were : Presidents, Edgar Coleman and Edwin Pfeil; Vice Presidents, Genevieve Hea-ly and Clyde Nordstrom; Secretaries, Ruth Johnson and Ruby Lovell; Treasurers, George Grabe and Avrom Dick-man ; Class Advisor, Mr. Nolon. At the start of our Senior year it wras seen that only a remarkably small band remained from fifty some that started, only about twenty-five remained. What had happened to the rest? It was found that ten of our number had been called by Dan Cupid. However strange it may seem, that number had been married. Several more had moved away and many had left us for other pursuits other than school work. But nevertheless, the sturdy group left carried on in spite of all. We made a success of everything attempted. Although it was a poor year financially in Port we raised enough money for our Washington Trip, we published a Tiger Lily which proved to be one of the best ever gotten out, the Bugle appeared as regular as clock work every two weeks and we put on many parties and other functions that were well attended. Our athletics were again predominant, our class having over half of the regulars on the football team and the “28-30” baseball team were again champions of the school, so our banner still reigned supreme. And now we graduate knowing that we have upheld the honor of Old P. A. H. S. in everything attempted and that we have performed our duty to the best of our ability. The officers for our last year were : Presidents, Lawrence Grigsby and George Grabe; Vice Presidents, Marjorie Caskey and Edwin Skaden; Secretaries, Carl Linnan and Ruth Ferm; Treasurer, Gordon Edgar; Class Advisor, Professor House.

Mr. Holden All good goods come in small packages, but this did not hold true when the present Junior Class entered High School. We entered in the fall of 1925 with seventy members, but misfortune and matrimony pursued us through our Freshman and Sophomore years so we entered our Junior year with forty-nine tried and true mem-members. At the beginning of our Junior year we put on the Freshman Reception which was one of the most successful social events of the year. The class is not only socially successful but also scholastically and athletically. Jack Healy was captain of the 1927-28 football team. Lawrence Redington was captain of the 1927-28 basket ball team and is captain-elect of the 1928-29 football team. The let-termen of the different sports were: Healy, Redington, Gamble, Anderson, Doloway and Antonson. Martha Baker was captain of the 1927-28 basket ball team and captain-elect of the 1928-29 team. Cecelia Romanio was manager of the 1927-28 basket ball team and manager-elect of the 1928-29 team. The Junior girls receiving basket ball letters were: Romanio, Baker and Lovell. The Juniors are always well represented on the honor roll and we have among our number many capable workers. The feature of our High School career was the Junior Prom held at the Canoe Place Inn. This was in every respect a huge success and we were congratulated by every one on the manner in which Canoe Place was decorated. Not enough credit can be given to the mothers of our class for the efforts they expended in making the Prom the best ever. Class Colors.........Red and White Class Flower ...........

We have tried hard to keep the pace set by the upper classmen and have thus far succeeded, that is, those who have been able to stand it. We remained green until after the Freshman Reception, this being the most interesting event of the year. The Sophomore Class has several good athletes that follow basket ball and have succeeded in gaining a place on the varsity teams, but there is only one who has been eligible to a place on the football team, he is “Jerry” or James Georgetson. Jerry attended a military school last year but returned this year to Port High. A large number of this class has also succeeded in winning a high place on the honor roll, and have a larger percentage in this than any other class of the High School. The Class of ’30 is certainly a live class and always turn out for school functions and parties. It is a class to be proud of and will be one of the largest classes to graduate from our Alma Mater.

In October these green “uns” were given a chance to show their artistic ability on the stage and though nothing much could be expected, they showed good sportsmanship throughout. Though they were green upon entering they soon established a rank as an intelligent, athletic and lively class which was shown by their work in bas- ket ball and football. Both boys and girls received four varsity letters into their honors due to accomplishments in these sports. When the second semester started a great change began to take place in the Freshman Class. They began to lose their greenness and take a more studious attitude toward school. There is an enormous amount of work for them to do before the diploma is handed to them, but we are sure that this class will be a valuable asset to P. A. H.

Front Row—Ruth Lovell, Martha Baker, Cecelia Romanio, Ruth Johnson. The above members of the Athle-the Council perform all the necessary business for the Athletic Association. All business is transacted by them before being submitted to the Association at large. It consists of the managers of the various athletic teams, the regular officers of the Association, three members elected at large and the Faculty Advisor, Mr. House. It has been due to them that the basket ball season of 1927-1928 was a success in every respect. If some member of the Association wishes a bill to be brought up in the monthly meeting he must first ask someone in the council to bring it up in their meeting. They will discuss it thoroughly. If it is passed by them it is then ready for submission to the whole Association. Here it will be accepted or rejected. The Council has been in operation for the past two years and has been a great improvement over the former method. Back Row left to right—Coach Schlosser, Jim Helmer, Clarence Ellison, Gordon Edgar, George Grabe, Everal Nordstrom, Lawrence Redington, Carl Anderson, Radford Gamble, Mr. House, Joe Brown, Robert Fortner, Donald Keagle, Berkley Dwyer, Coach Flynn, and Claude Berg, Manager. Front Row—Edwin Pfeil, Harry Redington, Jim Georget-son, Jack Healy, Capt., Gilbert Dolaway, Lawrence Grigsby. FOOTBALL The Port High football squad of ’27-’28 turned out a fairly successful season. Under the supervision of Coach Flynn the players gained much knowledge. Although just a few players were left from the preceding year, Flynn produced a good team. The Senior Class of ’28 are taking with them nearly half of the players. This loss will be noticed greatly by the team of the coming season. Among the players who are leaving are Ellison, Edgar, Pfeil, Linnan, Grabe and a few others. Captain Redington of ’29 did exceedingly well at booting the pigskin, also as tackle. Grabe was one of the best centers in this part of the country. lie was the man who could have filled the position of all-county center, but due to the blindness of a certain person did not get it. With Linnan at the quarterback position running the team, everything went smoothly. Linnan was a very quick thinker and very good at intercepting passes. The most interesting game of the season was the Smeth port-Port game played at Smethport. Port and Smeth-port have been rivals for many years, and due to this both teams trained to the utmost. The game was played in mud, water and snow, but this did not slow up the game much. Both sides played the hardest game of the season. Due to Redington’s good punting and Port’s good defence, Smethport could not do much. Smethport’s backfield was very fast and because of this they gained what they did during the game. The teams played up and down the field but neither could get the ball over the line. The game ended 0-0. Each team appeared satisfied because both were undefeated. This game ended the season for Port High..

The Port High basket ball team was a team which you could never tell what it was going to do next. It was a very good team but on some occasions played very poorly. The players learned real basket ball under the direction of Coach Schlosser. Pivoting and faking were the main factors which the team learned and due to this they were able to complete with a successful season. Captain Redington was the main defense of the team. At guard position he could not be excelled. Our team was one which always kept you guessing and in suspense. They won from one team and then would lose to the next. One queer thing about them was that they could beat all the teams who were leading the league, but could not beat the oth- ers. The most remarkable games were with Eldred Coudersport and Galeton. The Coudy game was the fastest game of the season, being played at Coudersport. Coudersport was tied with Emporium for first place in the league, and the Port-Coudy game was to decide the cup winners. The game started out with Port scoring several baskets. Both teams played fast and furious. The Coudy guards could not hold down the Port forwards, for they scored basket after basket. The game ended 21-25, Port leading. Thomas was high scorer with 14 points. This game crushed Coudy for first place. The season ended with Port winning eight games and losing six. Practically the same team will be seen on the court again next season. GIRLS CHAMPIONSHIP BASKETBALL TEAM Back Row left to right — Maxine Rafferty, Miss Mangold—Coach, Grace MacFarland, Margaret Farner, Miss Mason—Coach, Ruby Lovell. Front Row—Ruth Lovell, Thorene Anderson, Martha Baker Cape., Cecelia Romanio, Rena Lovell. Port High Basket Ball Girls ended another season without defeat, only through their honest and sincere playing, and Port High certainly does have something to be proud of. All during the season they fought hard to save the name of our dear, old Alma Mater. Their real test of the season was the final game played at Coudersport. Cecelia Romanio, our best forward is most responsible for their string of victories. She is a sure shot and knows her stuff when she fakes her guards the way she does. “Celia” was elected manager of the team in 1927-1928 and in 1928-1929. Then our three Lovells, Ruth, Ruby and Rena. Ruby and Celia worked together and worked hard with Ruth and Rena closely following their example. We were sorry to lose Ruby the near end of the season, but as other opportunities beckoned her she grasped them. Hail, our Captain, Martha Baker. She was chosen by the team as captain for 1927-1928 and 1928-1929. Mart was known by every one as the spunk of Port’s teams. She’s the one who made the girls get into it and light and pepped them up in between quarters. Mart was considered as the best side center in the league and believe me she sure knows her basket ball. Thorene Anderson, our jumping center was the best jumper in the league. She out-jumped every one of her opponents. She battled hard and she and Martha played together as a clock. Probably one of the main factors in their victories were their guards, Margaret Farner, who is better known as “Fat” was the best guard in the league. She was capable of holding her own and entered the game with a great spirit. We are unfortunate in losing Marg this year but we know she leaves her best wishes with the team for the next season. Grace McFarland, the other guard was a real whiz at keeping the opponents from running up a large score. Grace and Marg worked to- gether and were probably the best mated guards in the league. As Grace only a Freshman we expect her to be a wonder in the future. Maxine Rafferty, our substitute for side center was great. She was fast and light on her feet and could battle with anyone. Max was a good sport throughout the season. The schedule for the season is as follows: Port 35 Mt. Jewett Opponent 10 25 Galeton 25 19 Austin 9 35 Eldred 0 49 Emporium 12 38 Coudersport 24 22 Galeton 14 15 Eldred 5 24 Austin 19 41 Mt.

Although they are not a very numerous group they sure “know their onions.” Knowledge obtained in the classroom and labratory work is put into practical use by means of project work. In the state-wide project contests our “Aggies” distinguished themselves by annually bringing three or four ribbons and medals back from the capital at Harrisburg. These winners visit the annual farm products show held at Harrisburg and receive Motto............ Treasurer.............Robert Fortner Supervisor and Advisor, Bernard B. Holland their prizes in person. The “Aggies” are a very practical group, handy at repairing and constructing needed articles about the school. Had it not been for their help and co-operation, together with the initiative of the supervisor, the annual Comunity Fair could not have been the huge success that it was. Members of this closely organized group promise to be leaders in the nation’s largest and most important enterprise, agriculture. They are already a valuable asset to the school as well as the community as a whole.

The music has been enjoyed by the listeners. This department has done some very fine work and has proved itself a credit and a valuable asset to our school and community.

Balthaser at the High School Auditorium on Friday, April 20, 1928. “Seventeen” is one of the best plays ever produced in Port and we are glad to share the honor that it was put on by our High School. The Reporter-Argus gives the following summary of the characters: “It would be hard to choose the star of “Seventeen,” but surely ‘“Beck” Dwyer was a huge success in his role of “Willie.” Donna Hall took well her difficult lisping lines as Lola Pratt. Virginia Rafferty as the hostess of Lola Pratt was without criticism of her acting. Jane Heald was exceedingly cute as the proverbially troublesome kid sister. The Crains were rich as the Messers Baxter and Parcher. Ron- abelle Winston made an ideal helpful mother. “Rad” Gamble and “Jimmie” Helmer played the part of admiring swains most admirably. Ethan Harmon as a “sooner” arrived safely. Emily Dwyer, Clyde Nordstrom and Ruth Lovell were party guests while “Bob” Ferm created an uproar each time he appeared as “Genesis.” As a result of the hard work of the caste, the director and the various committees, along with the numerous courtesies, the music department made over a hundred and thirty dollars to be used for part payment of the stage equipment and music for the different organizations. On Wednesday, May 16, the caste journeyed to Coudersport where they staged a fine production. On account of Jane Heald’s illness Clarita Duhart took her role and proved a very good actress.

Hunter is now nearly as famous as Lindy was some twelve years ago, due to his famous flight to Emporium over the perilous Appalachian Mountains. It so happens though, that this Lindbergh is more in touch with the fairier sex, and not quite so bashful as was the Lone Eagle. As yet -he is not married but just the same he still makes his trips regularly to and from her city. The contraption he started when a Freshman in High School which carries him heavenward, is still used in making these hazardous yet eventful flights.

GETS PROMOTION Mr. Charles Plunkett who is a graduate of Port Alegany High School and the Sweeny School of Aviation, recently received the appointment of head of the machinists department in the above aviation school. Mr. Plunkett graduated from the aviation school some eight years ago and has been a mechanic there since. Due to the fact that he was so faithful to his work and never shirked anything, is given as the reason for this fine advancement. In working, the mechanic took for his example Mr. Schwab, the great steel magnet. His faithfulness to duty won for him the confidence of his employers for which in turn they promoted him to the fine position he now holds. BECOMES TOOL DYER Mr. Carl Linnan, a former graduate and resident of Port Allegany has received a very fine position with the Tidewater Oil Co. as chief tool dyer.

NEW FOREIGN AMBASSADOR Word has just been received from Washington that Mr. Edgar Coleman, prominent Statesman of Pennsylvania and a friend of our Hon. President Johnny Uppall Knight, has received the appointment as our Ambassador to France. This will mean that he will have to live abroad and probably be separate! from his dear Marguerite for some time. If perchance it should happen, it would give him an opportunity to return to Port Allegany and see his woman. They might then get married after not seeing each other for so long a time —if they aren’t already. “TEA FOR TWO PROVES A SUCCESS New York City, May 15, 1940.—“Tea For Two’’, one of the most beautiful tea rooms in this sec on has been opened.

This was a dance talked of far and wide. Music was furnished by Fitch Brothers Orchestra of Olean. The hall was decorated in orange and black and Japanese lanterns. The dancing hours were from nine until one. Every one had a fine time and as it was the first dance the Seniors held, it started a good reputation for them. The mothers of the Class of ’28 sold ice cream, sandwiches and punch. This was greatly enjoyed by aJH. ouch!

This was one of the greatest events of the season. The Inn was beautifully decorated with roses and the color scheme was pink and green. The dinner was served at 7 :00 o’clock and was greatly enjoyed by all. After the bountiful dinner toasts were given by various members of the faculty and a farewell speech to the Seniors was given by Mr. Cortlyn An-tonson and was responded to by Mr. George Grabe. The toast master of the evening was Mr. Lyle Holden. A program was given directly after the toasts. It was highly enjoyed by all. The program showed much talent among the Class of 1929. After the toasts a dance was held at the Inn. Art Covey’s Footwarmers of Coudersport furnished music, and they certainly were foot warmers. The special feature of the dance was the Rose Dance. All lights were turned out but a rose colored spot light and while rose petals and rose perfume were blown through the air the orchestra softly played, while Thomas Springer sang “Moonlight and Roses.” It was very beautiful. The Senior Class fully appreciated this banquet and congratulate the Juniors for being able to sponsor such a grand event. JFrrslmian JRrrpptitm On October 1, 1927 the Upper Classmen of P. A. H. S. assembled at the High School Auditorium to initiate the lower class, commonly called “Green Freshies.” The initiation was a very unique one. The Freshmen were frightened and even a certain girl dressed as a boy in the great excitement. The jury consisted of members of the Junior and Senior Classes. They gave their sentences with great authority and the Freshies hurried to obey. None were seriously injured, however. After the initiation the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Music was furnished by Dinty Moore’s Orchestra of Austin. PORT ALLEGANY INSURING CO., Inc. Will It Be Your Good Fortune to Have Us Bear Your Misfortune Office on Mill Street PORT ALLEGANY, PA.

The dinner was served at 6 :30 o’clock and following this toasts were given. Talks were given by members of various colleges and schools. Mr. James Springer then favored us with a vocal solo, after which Miss Anna Grimes gave a reading which was very much enjoyed. Miss Esther Larson, accompanied at the piano by her sister Miss Martha Larson rendered a beautiful vocal solo. The program was of the effect of a radio broadcasting station with Mr. George Fleming acting as announcer. Directly after the entertainment a short business meeting was called. The Class of 1928 were taken into the Alumni and then the officers for the following year were elected. After the meeting had adjourned the crowd went to the Weinman Hall where the evening was spent in dancing. Music was furnished by Ted Zaph’s Orchestra of Olean. A good time was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Jfiwtliall Jlmujitet The Girls’ Division of the Athletic Association of P. A. H. S. entertained the football squad at the annual G. A. A. Banquet held on December 12, 1927 at the Baptist Church. The dinner was served at 6:30 o’clock after which toasts were given by various members of the faculty and the members of the squad. Coach Flynn was the toast master of the ev- ening. A very beautiful wrist watch was presented to Coach Flynn by the Captain of the team, Mr. Jack Healy, to show the team’s appreciation of Mr. Flynn’s hard wrork and patience with them during the season. The group then adjourned to the High School Auditorium where a dance was held. WITH BEST WISHES For the Success of the Class of 1 9 2 8 “S? n 8? M. A.
