S , .3 Senior Class History BY SYLVIA EBER If this were just the simple story of How I spent four years in jail -beg pardon- High School, it would be infinitely easier to write. But it isn't. It is the history of the Class of 1928 from September, 1924, to June, 1928, and must be serious. And there's the rub. Why must a history be serious? Of course they always are-but that doesn't explain why. Most certainly, the history of '28 shouldn't be serious, because '28 itself started its career backwards. Its history just can't be serious. In the first place, we were a disappointment, and such a keen one. It must be exceedingly irritating to a Senior class expecting newcomers in the form of gawky youths and shy, retiring maids, to find instead a group of fresh young upstarts took it upon themselves to try to run the school. Times were different four years the seniors were tall and awe-inspiring, and we were small and should have who agoi been than all the other classes put together, and even more so to win all the ticket selling contests. inspired. It was most inconsiderate of us, therefore, to have more honor students Thus began the four-year sentence. The end comes now with our immediate graduation, and as we look back, the contrast between our Freshman and Senior years is so unusual that we marvel. As Freshmen, we were the darlings of our teachers, the pride of the school, and every possible point was strained to make our paths easier. As Seniors, we were the brunt of new systems, the target for Lady Hard Luck, and all our plans were shattered by dissenting forces. We ask you, did we begin backwards? Our Sophomore year was rather different. As we were then upper classmen it was quite permissable, even the thing, to win the Indoor Track Meet. That was the year of traffic cops, information bureaus and no left turns. However, since '28 has that excellent capacity for having fun in even the most adverse circumstances, We went blissfully along, entirely unmoved by the social reforms going on about us. As Juniors, we established the precedent of the Junior Hop, and, glory of glories, won the school baseball championship with an undefeated team-something few classes I NN ,,.w---.,s?,f 'xp,,.f' I5 ',g'1 :SR.5:eQ:2Q Q. .fe fig ea ss, . f We ex. as c 2 ff ri W W -.ev - Page 10 ina ,-,.

We still went on having fun, for who will ever forget the Pirate's Ball? The gods were divided against '28, for although we were blessed with a goodly share of honor students, athletes and loafers, We were cursed with new systems. But we bore them nobly, yea, with a patience worthy of any Christian martyr. But we look forward to a reward in Heaven, and when we daintily pluck our harp strings we will remember somewhere a voice saying Patience is a virtue. Twenty-eight was unusually fortunate in its class officers, for, with the exception of the secretaries, they all worked untiringly for the interests of the class. Our parties have been especially unusual, and the scene of milkmaids and farmerettes cavorting with farmhands and city slickers will linger with us always. As for dramatic ability-how many Friday mornings were enlivened by skits so splendidly acted by members of '28. Also our budding actors were never loathe to degrade themselves to the portrayal of some lower animal, such as wolves and property men. Although the faculty of P. H. S. has not been much changed during our tenure of attendance, we have had three different principals. But through it all '28 has gone plugging through with its honor students and championship teams in basketball, hockey and baseball. All with 1.000 per cent. Our four years were delightfully spent in fun, action, athletics and work. We don't know why work is last on the list, according to importance, it should come somewhere in the middle where it can be easily elided. However, in our spare time, we did work. If luck remains with us, '28 will be the first class to graduate from P. H. S. with a membership of over a hundred. Our graduation at the Capitol Theatre we look forward to with much enthusiasm, as well as our trip to Washington. We are truly sorry if this history seems flippant and shallow because the seriousness wouldn't come, and the foolishness crept in. But there is a real sincerity back of all the Hippancy, and though we hope to go forward into a world of bigger things, we are sad to leave P. H. S. After all, the years we have spent here are the happiest in our lives, and as we look back over them we feel that delightful thrill that comes only in the reflection of true pleasure and happiness. .,.,,.,.M,,H,, 3.5.11 ,K fl, 5 fr-...'.W-U.f'.'.M W Q ' Wi?

' .W - EMILY ALTHOUSE Hockey 1, 2, 33 Booster Committee 3, Dramatic Club, Art Club, Le Cercle Francais, Glee Club, 'fMiss Bob White, 'fSpringtime. Emily's disposition seems to have taken on some of the sunni- ness of her golden hair. At the games, Emily's voice may be heard above all the rest, and she is one of P. H. S.'s most loyal rooters. Her hobby is seconcling the motions made in class meetings. You have the best wishes of the class, Emily. JOSEPH AUMAN Class football 3, Commercial Club. A tall frame, a shock of yellow hair, a bass voice and we have Joe, the big butter and egg man from Auburn. f'Joe'sl' excellent voice has often supported a chorus of vocal stars from P. H. S. when they graced the stage. We don't know -Ioe's plans for the future, but whatever they are, the singing farmer has our best wishes. CLEMENT BUCKLEY Varsity football 2, 3, 4, Inter-Class Meet. This person is none other than the premier center of our star football eleven. Clem is a tres popular young man, especially among les femmes of 'Z8. Buck does not yet know what college team he shall be the leader of, but we feel sure he is going to make himself the center of things. Clement, even though you don't become a chemistry teacher, we are sure you will be a success if you only do not Lois your ambition. FLOSSIE BECKER f'Springtime, Glee Club, Commercial Club. Flossie has been known to become very indignant when a new teacher unfortunately called her Florence. After all, that is rather too dignified for our Flossie. She spends all her time aggravating her teachers. Anyway, she's got a wonderful dis- position, and with that she will get along anywhere. All '28's good wishes are with you, Flossie. PEARL BEAN Glee Club, Class treasurer 4, School pianist, Commercial Club. Pearl is one of our musicians, as many can verify. She is one of the few who never had their hair bobbed and during the past year she must have been secretly amused at the ravings of her less fortunate sisters. So far, Pearl has remained unimpressed by masculine charms, in high school, at least. Much luck, Pearl. .p 'res ,-M-M. .af , sewfm fi 5 if ' fy 5 2Xc:f'f1'E?.,f.gflY3Tfwfiz1 mf .

Each day she journeys from Auburn to Pottsville and back again. She is quiet and demure, and because of this we were unable to discover much about her. Although Esther has not decided definitely, she tells us that she intends to go to college and later to teach. Good luck, Esther. SARA BAST llockey 1, 2, 3, -lg Basketball 4, Class treasurer 1, Commercial Club, Dramatic Club, Oratorical Society 3, -1-g Minuet, You and I, Miss Bob White, Glee Club. One look at the activities of this charming Miss should suffice, but we must mention her versatility. One minute she sends a hockey ball down the field for a goal and the next she's tripping a dainty minuet on a light fantastic toe, and she spends her evenings refereeing bouts between her commencement partner and-. Sue, we wish you all the success in the world. FRANKLIN BOWER Minuet, Class football -I-, lli-Y, Vice-president 4. l'ntil this year we thought Franklin very retiring, but suddenly he blossomed forth as vice-president and a Minuettcr, and we'll say he certainly managed both jobs with ease. Franklin is one of those easy going persons and usually accomplishes more than the most of us. VVe don't know what l7ranklin's inclinations are, but we wish him luck whichever way he chooses to lean. ROBERT BOYLE Class cheerleader 2, 3g School cheerleader 3, Varsity football 3, 4, Varsity track 3, 4, Basketball manager 3, 45 A. A. Board 3, 4, 'l'. K. D., Dramatic Club, Euclidean Club. llcre, folks, we have one of the workingest fellows in school. f'Bob is always rushing around looking busy. He served success- fully in the capacity of basketball manager for two years and before that as school cheer leader. Another reason for our pride in Bob is the fact that he is the only eagle scout of which Pottsville can boast. llere's wishing you success, Bob, ROBERT BERNER lli-Y 1, 2, 33 Symphony Orchestra 3, 45 Collegians 3, 4, Band 4, Euclidean Club. An impressionistic idea of Robert resembles a great roar resolving into Craz-z-y wor-r-ds, craz-z-y tu-une, to which add the wail of his saxophone heard in the Symphony Orchestra, Collegians and Jazz Band, and shell-rimmed glasses. The glasses, of course, prove Pansy a student and scientist. You have our best wishes, B0b. !

At least one of us has worth-while ideals. Art's interests have always entwined about the Y. M. C. A. and we hear that either that work or the ministry is about to claim him. His work, scholastically and socially, has held him true, to the isola- tion of all weaker things. We look to you to bring much credit to '28, Arthur, all the luck in the world. NORMAN COOPER Commercial Club. Here is one of our artsits. Coop distinguished himself in this line during the school loan campaign. He is a quiet chap and liked by everyone. Norman comprises a good student, an inter- ested follower of school events and a quiet humorist. He serves as a check upon his friend Edward. You have our best wishes for a successful future, Norman. FRANCIS DOYLE Annual Staff, Minuet, Dramatic Club, Class basketball 3, 43 Class treasurer lg Bleacher crew 1, 2, 3, 4, '4Miss Bob White, class football manager 3, Euclidean Club. Doc graduates from P. H. S. with two great ambitions satis- fied, one that he could pass two years of latin in two years, and the other, that he could drive a Studebaker faster around a curve than Serfass could. l'Doc's status in the estimation of his class- mates is about equal to that of his scholastic standing, and few of our class top him either way. Doc, success is sure to come your way. ALMA CLAY Glee Club, Commercial Club, 'lSpringtime. VVe've come upon a set of twins and we canlt think of a thing Alma did that Anna didn't. If Alma weren't so good natured we'd all be dead long ago from asking what would happen if she and Anna disagreed as to what to wear. Whatever you do next year, Alma, never forget that back of you are our sincere wishes for success. ANNA CLAY Glee Club, Commercial Club, Springtime This is Anna. At least we hope it's Anna, because we're writing about Anna. This twin is not so quiet as her better half, but then that's no setback. We suggest that Anna be the twin to dye her hair, because if someone doesn't do something they'll always be making folks dizzy trying to tell them apart. Anna, we wish you what we wish Alma. ,. 1 f , if W- ,. N , 1 , S f'f I 4 x 5 2 ' M-. M.. , 3331? 1 - V. frfw-,mia vgxiyfis fr 5 . , ma, K 3 Wei 1 fy, ,iff rift ...ryqivfti 1 J A5 ..

Ilere is the sole contender to the title of minister's daughter. Moreover, Ruth deserves a medal for first braving the ordeal of letting her hair grow. Although quiet in school, almost every game finds Ruth on the bleachers loyally supporting the teams. Ruth, we do not know what your future plans are, but We wish you luck. MARGARET DEENEY Ilockey 1, 2, 3, 43 Art Club, Dramatic Club, Le Cercle Francais, Springtime, Miss Bob White, Glee Club, Euclidean Club. IIow she does talk! This irrepressible characteristic combined with a keen interest in solid geometry, makes Peggy the joy of Mr. Haskins' life? Her interest in athletics is limited to hockey and the members of the football team. Margaret, '28 wishes you success in whatever line you may choose to follow, but the one to Tamaqua. CLARA DENGLER Springtime, Oratorical Society, Miss Bob White, Le Cercle Francais, Dramatic Club, Art Club, Hi-S-Potts Staff, Annual Staff, Treasurer Euclidean Club, Minnet. Clara is one of those charming, sympathetic persons who make such wonderful wives for famous men. We aren't implying any- thing, but take the matter of commencement partners for instance. Clara's sympathy often gets the better of her, but then everyone loves her for it. As a pianist, Clara is especalliy gifted, and most certainly she will succeed at Holyoke next year. MARIE EBLING Instead of a noisy, red-cheeked, country girl, this Auburnite is the very essence of quietude and study. Marie did not enter P. H. S. with '28, but in the time she has been here she has made her quiet eapableness felt by everyone, and we all know she will succeed in whatever she does. EMILY ELISON Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4, Commercial Club, 'fMiss Bob White, Glee Club. I Emily seems to have one big aim, and that is to be absolutely independent of men. But we know it isn't Emily herself who quells them, it's her reputed hockey whack. This little lady is going to be an efficient stenog for someone. Reasons? Ablity, wonderful disposition and sense of humor. Much luck, Emily. W., I J N ' X e If i 'N xi F 7 Q .f x '!, l rwf, i , 1 ,. . I C 1 5 14.-.

Despite the absence of the coughs, rattles and bangs of the Ford which usually accompanies him, we introduce Lynn. To insure better treatment of its aged joints, he studied chemistry this year and proved an ardent chemist. His ability as a dancer won him a part in the minuet, and his clever driving made him a popular chaulfeur for the faculty. Fare thee well, 'tLynn, and don't get killed. HELEN EBERLE Hockey 1, Dramatic Club, A. A. Dance Committee 3, 43 Booster Committee 4, Oratorical Society, Le Cercle Francais, Minuet, 'lMiss Bob VVbite, Doll Committee 4, f'Springtime. Our favorite example of what gentlemen prefer. Helen's squabbles with Lynn furnish the girls with more thrills than a dime novel. Because of her ever ready assistance in all school functions, Helen has become a very active person in school affairs. VVe know that with Helen's enthusiasm her career at Wilson will be just as successful as that in P. H. S. We wish you all that you wish for yourself, Helen. DAVID FRIE Inter-Class Meet, Varsity track, Class basketball, Class foot- ball, A. A. Dance Committee. Stopl Lookl Listen! Stop, because Dave is not the type that rushes around, though we could hardly call him slowg look, for it might be worse, but especially listen to the clever remarks that fly around when our friend gets started. 'fDave is Z1 good field athlete, popular with the boys, and a Santa Claus to the girls. All successes, Dave SYLVIA EBER Hockey 1, 4-g President 2, Art Club, Dramatic Club, lIi-S-Potts Staff 3, 45 Annual Staff, A. A. Dance Committee 3, Oratorical Society, Le Cercle Francais, You and I, Oratorical Contests 3, 4. Take a good look. This is the first time you ever saw Sylvia quiet. Practically every entertainment committee claims her, for she is chock full of original ideas for novel parties. She is really a very versatile young lady, for she reads, writes, plays and anything else you can think of. Like Samuel johnson, Sylvia has a tendency to procrastinate, but we are sure journalism will remedy that. Good luck, Sylvia, you deserve it. LOUIS FANELLI Class football 3 45 Class basketball 43 Class baseball 3, 4. 7 'fBoy, ain't that guy what plays guard on that Senior team tough! Many a time has Louis heard those sweet words on a gory gridiron. Noted for his obsolete expressions and stories of how he passed junior English, Louis is one of that type you cannot help liking. We know you will climb high on the ladder of success, Louis. 'M t Q 5 !

As an authoress of the affairs of the Class of '28, Emma claims superiority. A class which numbers Emma among its members usually radiates a sound like the soft and gentle murmur of Niagara Falls or the peaceful environment of a boiler factory. We feel that Emma will succeed whether it be on the stage or at home. JOSEPH FITZPATRICK Varsity football 3, 45 Varsity basketball 3, +3 Varsity base- ball 3g Class baseball 3, 43 Miss Bob VVhite. joe, for an athlete and a Senior, is a remarkably quiet person. Fitz's experiences as a member of our athletic teams have been many and varied. The football field, the basketball court and the baseball diamond can all be listed in his athletic conquests. The class feels sure that Joe has big things in store for him. Fitz, as one of the most quiet yet popular Seniors, '28 wishes you all kinds of success. MARY FISHER Ilockey 1, 2, 3, 4, Basketball 3, -lg Vice-President 1, President 3, Dramatic Club, Annual Staff, President Student Council 4, Sec- retary A. A. Board 4, President Oratorical Society, Le Crecle Francais, Miss Bob White, Girls' basketball manager 4. Mentally, socially and athletically Mary stands in the lime- light. What could be greater proof of her popularity and leader- ship than that long list of activities? She has played hockey and made an equally good girls' basketball manager and guard. Include grades that are equalled by few in the class and you have the ideal combination called Mary. Though a blue-eyed blonde, she early learned the useless theory of fixing the Buick's tires. Mary, your sterling qualities are sure to bring success. PETER GOLAMIS llere is one of the most quiet and best-natured men in the class. Never interfering, but calmly going his own way. Pete is held in high esteem by his classmates. Ile is one who seldom misses an opportunity to do his bit for class or school. May we meet more like him in the years to come. Pete, '28 wishes you success as a confectionary king. KATHARINE G RADY President 2, Dramatic Club, Treasurer Oratorical Society, Hockey 1, Bank cashier 3, Le Cercle Francais 4, Miss Bob White, Springtime, French play. Kay is one of the most popular girls in the class, as everyone will agree, and is always willing to help anyone out of a difficulty, for which reason her good nature is often imposed upon. We don't know what she plans to do, but wouldn't she be a wonder- ful comfort to someone? Good luck to you, Kay. f , I ,NE l Wy.. ,, M.. rx if X' X iw f' s NX 5. ,M , X X , ' Page 17 fr kix, i '.

W Also witness his choice in commencement partners. Chuckl' has a scholarship to almost any college, except Cumbola Tech., and he's not worried about that. We wish you success. MILDRED HOKE Hockey 1, School pianist, Miss Bob XfVhite, Glee Club, Com- mericial Club. We all know Mildred, for she plays the piano in chapel. Her spirited playing belies the quiet dignity she maintains in the class room. Nevertheless, we have discovered that Mildred possesses a charming voice as well as talented fingers, and these musical gifts plus her slow smile are sure to bring many friends. JESSE GRAY Euclidean Club, Oratorical Contest 3, 45 Class basketball 3, 43 Class football 3, 4, Dramatic Club, Student Council 3, Hi-S- Potts Staff 3, Booster Committee 3. 4'Boy, tell that director, Cecil de Mille, that he is wanted at Mr. Jesse Gray's office at once. Such words are expected from Jesse as a motion picture magnate. He claims he served as the inspiration for that little song, f'She'll Never Find Another Fel- low Like Me, Lucky Girl. Orator, writer, scholar, poet and general critic all suit him to a UK. We compliment the profes- sion that is fortunate enough to have you call it your own, Jesse. ROBERT HAERTTER Euclidean Clubg Manager Class baseball 3, 4, Manager Class football 4. HBob is more interested in athletics than in his studies. During his four years in High School he has managed more teams than anyone else in the school. He has also a wonderful memory. He could tell you just how many points each member of the team made. But in geometry his memory always seems to fail. The Class of '28 looks to you to be a Connie Mack someday, .rB0b'yy GRACE HIGGINS Hockey 1, 2, 3, 43 Basketball 3, 4, Captain 4, Class treasurer 2, Class secretary 3, Commercial Club, Dramatic Club, Annual Staff, Oratorical Society, Minuet, '4Miss Bob White. Grace is one of the most popular members of '28. As an athlete Grace, you remember, made both goals for the Seniors in the championship hockey game and later proved an excellent captain and player on the girls' basketball team. We could easily rave on about her charm in the Minuet, but Hoe Will gladly tell you the rest. All kinds of luck, Grace. 1 114. 'K ff 71 5,53 . I4 i - V1 . . feifi . . W, ,,. ,, Q ,aww We., if , .

Mildred is positively the laughingest person in the school. But in spite of the giggles she's a good basketball player and sport, and she sets an example to the rest of the Seniors by her interest in her sister class. Your 'lsunny disposish should make you an excellent nurse, Mildred, we wish you success. ROBERT HERMAN liuclidcan Club, T. K. ll., Uratorical Contest 3, 4, County Oratorical champion 3, Hi-S-Potts Staff 3, 4, Annual Staff. Here we have the pride of P. H. S. Bobby Herman brought more glory to P. ll. S. than any other individual by virtue of winning the County Oratorical Contest. After the contest was over Bob ups and picks himself a charming commencement partner and then says with satisfaction, That's that. Bob continued to work for P. ll. S., and we assure you he's some busy man as his activities will show. Your success is certain, Bob. BLAKE HOBBS President lg Symphony Orchestra 3, 45 Collegians 3g lIi-S- Potts 3, 4. Blake is one of those who have reached the high peaks of attainment, even if he had to look down at a saxophone to do so. As a versatile entertainer, par excellence, it would be extremely dif'l-icult to find a peer. His predecessor set a hard pace, but as '28's representative, Blake has matched that stride very well. Whether as a vaudeville entertainer, orchestra leader, modern composer or merchant marine olhcer, we know you are due for a big success, Blake. MOLLY HAVISON Springtime, Miss Bob White, Hockey, Girls' track 1, 2, 3. Molly has never bothered much about the boys here in High School, but we hear that those from surrounding towns literally flock around her. This is not hard to understand, for she com- bines a charming vivacity with an ever more charming appear- ance. ller velvety complexion and titian curls are the envy of all the girls. VVe wish you much happiness, Molly. WALTE R JONES Class baseball 3, 45 Class football 4, Euclidean Club, Minuet. l.et us now look up to VValter. The majority of the Class does gaze upward toward his six feet of virile young manhood, topped by a thatch of auburn hair. Walt starred on the Class basket- ball, football and baseball teams. lle was also a prominent figure in the Minuet, for colonial gallantry toward the ladies was naturally portrayed. You are sure to go over big, Walter. ,f fo Page 19 Q gp- f , - ' ' 4 j'-'av ,Q . 1 .Mp QL?

Eluned is a daughter of Wales, having come over when just a wee lass. The inherent musical talents are not lacking, and she has brought much pleasure to her comrades by her singing. She is one of the few who can tell Alma and Anna apart. We don't know what you will do after graduation, Eluned, but we suggest detective work. RALPH KINZEY Symphony Orchestra, f'Princess Bonnie, Band. Ralph follows his predecessors inasmuch as he is well liked, a normally quiet student, and is quite a star at basketball. The boy claims good things come in pairs, and in regard to his com- mencement partner-! He does not know whether to become a salesman or president of the Pennsy, claiming that both have their advantages. Best of luck, Ralph-all ways. WILLIAM KAUFMAN Scientific Society 3, 4-g Booster Committee 4, Euclidean Club, Le Cercle Francais, French Play 4, Christmas program 4. Bill is the avowed enemy of anything scientifically unknown, and show us the thing he can't unearth or oderize. William is not only one of those people who make a chemistry Prof's life a dream, but also has turned out to be a bear or wolf in dramatics. Whether you marry a laboratory or not, 'fBill, we foresee P. H. S. in future years using nothing but William Kaufman's Chemistry text-book. LESTER KOCH Class baseball 3, 4. Here is the all-around handy man of the class. Lester's ambi- tions fluctuate between a carpenter, druggist and dancing master. His chief claim to fame lies in his chemistry recitations. His answers always delight the class and amaze the chemistry Prof. Lester's interest in his studies and pharmistry have occupied all of his full time, we hear. 'lKochie, we know you will go over big. EDWARD KRIEG Commercial Club. It is useless to speakg words could not tell what we would say of him. Although gifted with an undeniably high-powered charm, f'Eddie always refused to become one of those Uvulgar sheiks. What this young man does not know about the Class of '28 is hardly worth knowing. Kriegie, whether as the nation's fore- most timber king or dramatic actor, the Class wishes you all success. ffwum i ,fs ef.:-s f . . f 31. S , .... ,sc 1. .

The Symphony Orchestra also suffers when J:1y's tastes become classical. Despite his self-imposed title of woman hater, jay's Chevy carries feminine passengers, and Mr. Miller backs us up in declaring his claim null and void. Synco- pating success, Jay. MARY KAIER You and I, Springtime, Miss Bob VVhite, Dramatic Vlub, Basketball 4, Oratorieal Society. Mary is of that decidedly feminine tyye and concentrates on athletes. And do they respond? Mary's plans for the future are not quite definite, but most likely she will go to State and take up home economics and then settle down with some all-American football star. '28 wishes you all the luck in the world, lVIary. EVELYN KAPLAN C'ommercial Club, A. A. Dance Committee, Miss Bob VVhite. Evelyn's dancing is a thing of joy. Although she has always been a member of '28 she originally hails from New York and still retains that New Yawk twang in her speech. lf Evelyn decides to go on the stage, we know she will easily claim the spotlight and then we will gaze at her with pride and say, She belongs to '28. EVELYN LEHMAN Basketball 4, Hockey 4, Girl Reserves. First and foremost Evelyn is a Girl Reserve. Though quiet in school, she branched out in athletics, scoring high in the Class Meet last year, winning a track letter and then stepping into hockey and basketball. VVe feel sure, Evelyn, that you will score just as high in life as we expect you to score in this year's meet. MARIAN LAPP School piansit, Girl Reserve. What a quiet classmate we have here. Nevertheless, Marian is an ardent Girl Reserve and not too bashful to play the piano for us in chapel. We feel quite sure that the future will find her patiently counting, One-two-three-four, to the Click of a metronome, as she endeavors to force music into the hezfd of some innocent youngster. Good luck, Marian. l W., EW., so ixjws W s.,,,e,t ' f : t Pr1gC21 is X5 GP it 5, , is .1 , S ' , 'x i , is ' K, + gi vu.. were A TT v I 1. I.

Without any fuss she will finish all the work at a sale or meeting before the rest of us stop talking about beginning. HDot always had time to lend a helping hand, and now in return '28 wishes her a bright and prosperous future. WILLIAM LEIFIELD P. H. S. Collegiansg Class football 3, 4-g Band 4. Bill and his Ford were so indispensible to the Senior girls that a box labeled Bill's Gas Fund was used to catch their stray pennies. Leifield has some music in his soul, else why should he play the traps? To hear him discuss weighty ques- tions on evolution in P. of D., one would think he was quite intellectual. 'KBill, you should prove a successful advertiser. BETTY LIDY Class Historian 2, Vice-President 3, Student Council 3, Hi-S- Potts 3, Editor 4, Orchestra 4, Secretary Dramatic Club, Art Club, Secretary Oratorical Society, Class Day Historian, Annual Staff, Le Cercle Francais 2, Miss Bob VVhite. Despite Betty's tendency to procrastinate and Lloydferj, she accomplishes some work. Somehow, Betty gives one the impres- sion of having just stepped out of a valentine. She has a lovely rich voice, an exquisite touch as a pianist and writes with a style that is the envy of the whole class. We hardly know of a more talented girl. In whatever she chooses for her career '28 wishes her success. GRACE LECHLEITNER Hockey 1, Basketball 1, 2, Track 1, 2, 4, Dramatic Club, t'Miss Bob White. Grace is one of those girls who are always working for the good of the school. She has never taken an active part in ath- letics of any kind, but is a loyal supporter of our teams. At present and in the past her big thrill is a certain accomplished alumnus. The class wishes you success and happiness, Chick, HAROLD LIIISIIQY Class basketball 1, 2, 3, 4-g Class football 3, 4, 'tMiss Bob White, Track 2, A. A. Dance Committee 3, 'iSpringtime. , Harold the prompt, Harold the punctual, Harold the soda slinger of Donahue's. Harolsl's got a way of slinging sodas that's got them all stopped, and sometimes he actually brings what you ordered. With such efficiency, Harold, youlll soon be doing bigger and better things. We hope that when opportunity knocks you'll get to the door in time to let him in. if M5 e t ug, ,Q :rf ffm., .. .Jw . , .W , ft Wi 'Li'w1f:lf, ' 41 1? ,ifrlrnj WX ff M552 wa 3 ' mm' 3 if fi .wjw ,xii Z J' 555 Q-.f ' git :JPY if M Af. ru N '53 I0 N .- ??FW f'5 1 A, . 22 fi 3 ,, la ' 51.353 5 .53L35ifjz1.q i:.. ?i:Q..,'e? .W:.w..Ha-4 ' ii 'WA- - 'V R , gi E. if g,,KW,W W1 rs., 2 lwwmm Aww.

' RUTH MOORE Dramatic Club, Basketball 4. Basketball player, Port Carbon beauty and noise maker. Ruth joined us only last September, but since then she has made enough racket to more than make up for the other three years. She is a cracker jack basketball player and cave woman, with quite a high score in both sports. All our wishes for success are yours, Ruth. FRANCIS MERRICK Miss Bob White , Track 2, 3g Football 3, Oratorical Contest 4, Class basketball manager 2, Inter-Class Meet. Curly dark hair, black eyes, and he's going to be a minister. Nevertheless, when we see a dignified young man in clerical garb, we shall remember the widely gesticulating cheer leader and the budding orator. There are few months when Francis does not have some feminine charmer on his mind. At least, an enlarged parish should follow your entrance into the ministry, Francis. ETTIE MOYER llockey l. Our ardent devotee of cards. Ettie is very quiet and speaks in such a wee voice that anyone would think she were afraid of the cruel, hard world, but that's where she fools them. We don't know what you plan for next year, Ettie, but we wish you success in anything you do, so long as it isn't card tricks. WILLIAM MA RTZ Track 1, 2, 3, 4, Football 3, 4, Basketball -I-g Class secretary 1, Class president 2, Annual Statt, Iii-S-Potts Staff 45 Hi-Y 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club, Bleacher Crew 1, 2, 3, 4. Bill decided to be just about everything his Senior year, and the ears of football, basketball, track and literature all trembled at his touch, and to climax it, he rescued a lady fair from the unfeeling mob of the auditorium. William, we faint to think of it. It's an art to make them fall like this boy can. Bill, we all know you'll be a success whether you Peg away at being a man of the world or a college hero. LQUISE MEYER A. A. Dance Committee 4. ' We wonder why Louise tries to give the impression that she's absolutely unapproachable to males, when we know better.

She is liked by everyone in the class, but none of the boys have managed to make an impression upon her, for there is another outside of school. We think you will make a very charming and efficient house-keeper, Dot, CARL MARTY Historian 2, Class football manager 3, French play, President T. K. D., Euclidean Club, Le Cercle Francais. What a collegiate walk and what a line with the ladies. Carl can say the same thing to ten different girls and have them all believe it. This diplomacy is useful in other places, for he is T. K. D. president and a regular committee member. He went out for track this year and made surprisingly fast time. '28's good wishes are yours, Carl. MARY MOOTZ Hockey 1, 2, 3, 45 Basketball 4, Dramatic Club, Art Club, A. A. Dance Committee 4, Miss Bob White. How can we do justice to Mary's high sense of humor, ready chuckle and sudden daring? Mootzie has played hockey and basketball, and, although we can hardly label her studious, her answers in P. of D. have been most unusual. Mootz surely is popular, and, although she proves perfectly capable of paddling her own canoe, many are the offers of assistance. PAUL MATTHEWS Secretary 3, 'tYou and I, Hi-S-Potts Staff 3, A. A. Board 4, Track manager 43 Business Manager Annual. This fellow is the schools best known man locally. Finance and romance occupied most of Paul's time while pursuing the elusive nymph of learning, and while successful in both, seemed to be best Sue'd with the latter. His chief ambitions were: to raise money for the Penn relays, raise that chemistry grade and turmoil generally. He was also the Business Manager of this year's Annual. Paul, whether as a star salesman, graduate manager or clergyman, the class will always be with you. LAURA MCKNIGHT Dramatic Club, Miss Bob White. Behold our most ardent worshipper of movie stars and reverent possessor of many autographed photos. Laura's next favorite hobby is cards. She is always ready to play a game of bridge. Then, too, she drives a Buick around town, but try as we would we could get no news of accidents. Laura's cheeriness and good nature will insure her success in the business world.

Stuart wasn't quite big enough to make the varsity football team, but he went out for class football and proved one of the mainstays of the team. In basketball he played forward on the championship Senior quintet. Ile doesn't pay so very much attention to the girls, but they refuse to be ignored and like him anyway. '28 wishes you luck, l'Strut. MARY MEADE Doll Committee, Le Cercle Francais, Minuet, Orchestra, Ora- torical Society, Dramatic Club, Class president 1, Springtime. Here is one of our most loyal members. Do you remember when we were green, green Freshmen how Mary, as president, safely steered us through the first half of the year? She plays the violin and sings very well, and made a charming colonial maid in the minuet. West Chester and music will claim her next year, then Dave and missions we suppose. VIOLA NEBER Orchestra 3, 4. Viola joined the ranks of '28 in our junior year. Her playing in the symphony orchestra has been a decided asset to her in that it gained for her an ardent admirer from the Freshman Class. Wherever Viola is, Bobby is not far distant. Good luck in your chosen profession, Viola. LEONARD NICHOLAS Football 3g Class football 1, 2, 43 Inter-Class Meet 1, 2, 3, 45 Ili-S-Potts 3, 4g Class baseball 2, 3, f'Miss Bob White, Just Out of College. Leonard was inherited from last year's class. It can be easily said that he is one of the most popular fellows in the class, for his sparkling humor brings smiles to the gloomiest. He distin- guished himself this fall as coach of the Sophomore Class football team, for which he was well fitted. We wish you all the success in the world at Gettysburg, Nick. ' JAMES MORRISON Dramatic Club, Art Club, Annual Staff, Christmas program. jim claims he is girl-safe anywhere, even in the Art Club where he is one of the big Bohemians. Art, in fact, interested Jim to such an extent that he only managed to cross the gradu- ation line when he decided to Shomo effort. Jimmy, as the art representative of '28, we expect you to draw a high place in life. 1' We , f' K 1 Xa, i ,. h he ,f , .M , f , , Di YM' , l v W ,W -M M... , ' JW N ,' ' Y, 7 TJ' I ' 1 A ' I f- 'yr we xQf itzrw- f , ,.,,. xg k-- t h ' , YM -Ma 1'Q'.f' 'P' 'e'Mi'.'M'lf'1 'fri Page25 5.1 L f Q1 ' fr N., ws , Sapkf 4 XM . ,, t , . .

Dance Committee 3, 4g Class football 3. Joe holds the record for being on more committees than anyone else in the class. We can't understand it as we're positive he never does any work, but perhaps its because his presence is inspiring. 'floei' is quite a popular young man. Also he has an excellent sense of humor and is an actor of no mean ability. In whatever he chooses to do, we wish him luck. HAROLD POLLACK Class football 3, 4, Class baseball 3, 4, Le Cercle Francais, French Play, Euclideans. Here we have one of the best naturad fellows in the class. Quick in grasping a subject himself, he is always willing to help someone else. Most of his themes have been on furs, and they show his thorough knowledge of that subject. Harold made a very dashing soldier in the French play, but we doubt whether he will make soldiering his life work. However, the class wishes him the greatest success in whatever he undertakes.

All our good wishes are yours l'Peg. HELEN RYON I Helen transferred from Hazleton High School and was imme- diately welcomed and accepted as one of ours.

FRANK PRESTILIO Class football 3, 45 Class baseball 3, -lg l'li-Y Club, Euclidean Club. Frank is one of those reserved, quiet boys who have abso- lutely nothing to say concerning themselves. Although no state- ment has been issued in regard to his future, it is said he is gravely afflicted with tonsorial inclinations. He is a keen fol- lower of athletics and was himself a sturdy guard on the Senior y team.

FRANCIS PETRIE lli-Y Club, Rotary Patrol. llerc is one of the quiet, undiscovered humorists of the class. lfrancis' slightly awry proverbs and mis-quoted sayings are well worth one's attention. llis inclinations for a future career bend toward that of the Scouts. To the surprise of all, his long dormant romantic inclinations became quite volcanic his Senior year. As the national leader of our Scouts, we look to you to uphold '28, Francis.

There is a rumor on foot con- cerning the attraction of a certain under-class maiden which we have had no time to investigate. However, we wish you luck in this and all other ventures, Carl. ALBERT SCHERZINGER Symphony Orchestra 3, 4, Band 3, 4, manager orchestra 4. HAI is blessed with one of the best dispositions in the class and can be depended upon for anything. He views his studies seriously and will be one who will hit college on all fours. In the future we see Shim as one of our staid and leading citi- zens. Al, the class as one wishes you the biggest of successes. EMMA SCHOTT Hockey 1, 23 Art Club, Dramatic Club, Oratorical Society, Symphony Orchestra 3, 4g Le Cercle Francais 2, Springtime, A. A. Dance Committee 4. Here is the one and only equestrienne of the class. Also, Emma is the easiest going person in the class, always calm and reserved. She expects to study to be a dietitian. Now we always associate dietitians with doctors, so it is not wholly improbable that Emma will be associated with t'Dr. Bill all the rest of her life. FRANKLIN SCHRANK Class football 3, 4, Euclidean Club. Franklin is one of those chaps who believe all good things will come to those who deserve them. He was a mainstay of the powerful Senior football teamg he played the part of the iron wall at guard. Schrankie, we know that whatever profession, business or school you pick, it will have a real asset in you. Best of luck. ROBERT STEWART Class football 4, Commercial Club. , A remarkably quiet person for a member of the class of '28. Bob spent most of his days dreaming of the Boy Scouts, Senior English and his career after graduation.

Every once in a while Clifford reaches his first class on time, and we often wonder if it's always the train that holds him back. He seems impervious to the wiles of the fairer sex, but appearances are really so deceiving. Schultz has won many friends, and the class wishes him happi- ness and success. LOIS SHOMO Hockey 1, 2, 33 Dramatic Club, Art Club, Doll Committee 4, Springtime, Miss Bob White. Lois is the best little manager in the world. She has three boy friends, and they never get in each other's way. If that doesn't take ingenuity, we ask you what does. Lois drives her car care- fully, and always manages to have her Hat tires fliterallyl where it's easiest to meet someone to fix them. In your managing, Lois, we wish you luck.

D., Bleacher Crew 1, 2, 3, 4. Here is the big boss of our annual. Herb certainly has tried to make this year's production a bigger and better one in every way. And what a change. From a mere student, 'fSteve was miraculously transformed into one, arbitrary dictator, and the staff moved. As secretary of the A. A. and general business man of the school, Steve's path in life seems already made. But they always said, Truth will out. Herb, as one who heartily deserves it, we know success will never miss you. GERTRUDE SEITZINGER Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4g Basketball 4, Class treasurer 3, Dramatic Club, Oratorical Society, Bank cashier 4, Commercial Club, Miss Bob White. Seitzy was the surprise of the year in basketball. Nobody thought she could play, but her actions the first game changed their minds. Gertrude's sunny disposition, athletic ability and peppy ways have won her many lasting friends. We do not know what Seitz intends to do after graduation, but whatever it is we feel sure that Tom enters into it somewhere. GEORGE SEIDERS Football 3, 43 Class basketball 1, 2g Hjust Out of College, Inter-Class Meet 3. George is the sportsman of the class. He made up his mind to graduate no matter if he had to study Wednesday nights to do so. George opened holes as big as French goose-eggs in opposing lines while playing guard on the varsity his third and fourth years. We see him in the future as the town's leading printer or an advertisement for, f'The Cadillac Satisfiesf' The class wishes you a bright future, George. n.. -.... ., ,,,. .faux ...M ,M .

VVe hope life has only happiness in store for you, Ruth. MARIAN SYLVESTER Hockey 1, 2, 3, 43 Chairlady A. A. Dance Committee 4, Booster Committee 4, Dramatic Club, President Art Club, Commercial Club, Annual Staff, Minuet, 'fSpringtime. Since Marian let her hair grow she wears a most becoming air of sophistication. And, really, she is a splendid executive, As chairlady of the A. A. Dance Committee she was largely respon- sible for its success. We do not know what Marian is going to do, but if she becomes s0mebody's stenog, gosh, won't the boss' wife writhe in jealousy! VVe don't worry about your success, Marian, it's assured. OLIVE THORNBURG Dramatic Club, Commercial Club, 'tSpringtime. This tiny little Miss trudges all the way from Mechanicsville to school. Olive made an adorable little girl in our Junior Christmas program and sang I've got a pain in my sawdust with so much feeling that everyone thought she really did ache. We hope to see you in the role of a first-class stenographer, Olive. FRANCIS SMEDLEY Secretary 2, T. K.

Let us present '28ls president and one of its many athletes. Although it was his first year of varsity football, K'Smed was chosen tackle on the mythical all-star Eastern Pennsylvania Con- ference team. Francis is a good example of the old adage, The early bird catches the worm, for he was the first Junior to ask a commencement partner. Smedley expects to go to Annapolis. Good luck. THERESA SMITH Dramatic Club, Commercial Club. About Theresa we can disclose two characteristics. First of all, she is a giggler. No, she isn't an ordinary giggler, but one who takes advantage of anything to gurgle away on high F. Secondly, she is apparently Vain and turns down all sweets for the benefit of her complexion. Her future plans are unknown, but the familiar giggle will probably belong to somebody's stenog. -Q , ,,,, 3.

From what we hear they certainly must have a noisy time of it during the noon hours. She may be found at that time bothering the janitor who, we believe, will find it rather lonesome with no one to tease him any more. Jeanne, your ready smile should pave the way to SIICCCSS. CARLTON STERNER Track 1, 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club, Annual Staff, Class prophet, Hi-S-Potts Staff 4, Secretary 4, Class football 4, Student Council 4. VVhcncver we hear the distant rumble of a sixteen syllable word wc know that Pete is about to appear. VVhat a mixture he is. lle talks like a polyglot, looks like a rustic pedagogue and runs like a Mercury. Also, he's an actor of no mean degree. We could go on naming Pete's many talents, but instead we advise you to look at the list of his activities. The success of so versatile a person is assured. EDNA WILLIAMS Dramatic Club, Art Club, Le Cercle Francais. The future librarian of the class. Edna has a wonderful dis- position and a large store of knowledge and is therefore well fitted for this position. She is widely read and can carry on a really intelligent conversation. Although Edna has not partici- pated in athletics, she has been an ardent rooter at all the games '28 wishes you much luck, Edna. PAUL SCHLITZER Treasurer 3, Banking Council 3, 4, Symphony Orchestra 3, 43 Annual Staff, Dramatic Club, Minuet. llere is one of our biggest surprises. VVhen Paul entered high school no one expected him to blossom forth as he has done. llc was so quiet and bashful. But then he was a Freshman, and in those days Freshmen used to be awed by their new dignity. Since that time Paul has changed so much that he is a favorite with both sexes. VVe hope that he may grow in success as he did in popularity. WILLIAM SONES Scientific Club, Euclidean Club. Bill is our best bid for Darwin's successor. William is a natural scientist. Ile is a member of our conservative science club and was chairman of the Christmas sign committee for the last few years. Always a little girl shy, William became a con- firmed bachelor when limma accepted someone else's bid for her commencement escort and otherwise.

Violet is an attractive member of the class, and her untiring efforts as class president the first Senior semester deserves much commendation. True to the traditions of her ancestry, she pos- sesses a lovely soprano voice, which makes her doubly popular with musicians, including trap drummers. Although she is unde- cided, she is seriously considering specializing in music, and we hope that she may make the most of her gift. EMMA YERKUS Commercial Club. Emma has had much experience in various high schools, having attended those of Llewellyn and Minersville before coming to Pottsville last year. She has never participated in athletics. Her exercise is purely mental. We are glad to have been able to count you as on of our numbers for two years, Emma, and wish you much luck in the future. JOSEPH WILCHUSKY Football 4 Basketball 4 Inter-Class Meet 43 Euclidean Club. What a brutish build, but, ohl what a handsome countenance. f'Gorch early manifested his athletic inclinations, when, even before he was properly introduced as coming from Port Carbon, he made the welkins ring with his ability to pile 'em up at guard. From football he successfully stepped into basketball. With his level ways, easy manner and winning personality 'tJoe ranks as one of the best liked men in the school. Joe, the Class of '28 expects to see you go high in life. VERNA YAISLE Le Cercle Francais, Oratorical Society, Hockey 1, 4, Art Club, Dramatic Club. If Verna is not the second best talking machine in the class, she is the first. But nevertheless, when on a committee she talks it into accomplishments, for which reason she has our ardent admiration. With Verna's executive ability and her talent as an actress we expect great things of her, and we sincerely hope she does not disappoint us. VIOLET ZIMMERMAN Oratorical Society, Art Club, Dramatic Club. Violet has always held herself aloof from the boys of P. H. S., but we know that when it comes to Pine Grove and moustaches, that's a horse of a different garage. We imagine Violet's a won- derful house-keeper, but We aren't sure because she never brags. Anyway, if she isn't one now, she'll be a good one some day. All successes, Violet. 5 . H 12 lg- X A 51 f rs. 2 , ,Q .F ' f5 1 3 fe? X fn J H f Q S., .., , .rw K- 4 lm, -'t'fTf'V?'.,NX e 1545?

ROBERT TROUT Class football 3, Euclidean Club. It can hardly be said that Fish walks to schoolg he rather shuffles. Once here he claims the most sophisticated attitude. llis favorite diversion is pulling down top-heavy test grades, and with such a nonchalant demeanor! Whether as a leading Philadelphia importer or a Pottsville real estate agent, we wish you all kinds of luck, i'Fisher. JOHN YAAG Track 3, 43 Class football 3, 49 Hi-Y Club. Here we have the real Hying Dutchman, Finn and what-have you? John is undoubtedly the greatest pole vaulter that ever threw himself over the bar for Pottsville High. This Monarch of the Cloudsl' holds the Y. M. C. A. record, which is saying quite a bit. We know there have been men who loved their les- sons more than he, but John, if you keep that grin, we know you cannot help but come out on top. Much luck. EVAN WILLIAMS Class football 3. Of all the calm, worldy wise gentlemen in the class this individual claims each and all prizes. Skinny is a likeable chap, famous for his stories of how much more he knows than the Profs and possessed of an attitude of not taking life too seri- ously. Whatever path of life claims you, f'Skinny, the class knows you will reach the peak. -,N fi i N I ' 'f rs ' M ff, X ,, .N . . ig yrs X 'W f I I i.l7 ,Qxfl , V --M . ff' we L , fi , C, XM fr-Xi 1 Q, 'i , ': 51' F 5 N gl' mmf 114 J L. f ' M. f .E ff.

History of the Junior Class of 1929 In September, 1927, the Class of '29 met to begin another school year. Shortly after the opening of the term a meeting was held for the purpose of electing oliicers. Those elected were: Vera Weiss, president, John Neice, vice-presidentg Wesley Gordon, treasurer: Margaret Bell, secretary. Mr. Hoke was elected our sponsor. Eugenia Eagan, George Wachter and Robert Reid represented the Class in the Student Cabinet. With Mr. Hoke as our coach, the boys organized a championship football team. The girls were not as successful as the boys, but gave the Seniors a stiff battle in the final hockey game. The Juniors were duly represented on the boys' basketball team by Dick Moore, John Niece, Robert Reid, William Gressang and Edward Kunkle. On the girls' team were Ruth Eber and Margaret Bell. In February another meeting for the election of officers for the second semester was held. Those elected were: John Niece, president 3 Dot Knoll, vice-president: George Wachter, secretary, Marian Smith, treasurer. i.NIf 't if-KW r J ' il i-ef w li i l 'B lm s5tfj'Lg,2UwL g5:.,...i ,',s,.E,,w' 'A' Lrg .

Marion Robbins possesses as much school spirit as anyone in P. H. S. Florence Zerbey and Pearl Micheltree are members of our symphony orchestra.

Anna Jones and Hopper', Allen can be seen frequently together. It looks bad. Marion Howells thinks General Nuisance won the World War.

Indeed, I do! exclaimed his grand parent. That large picture is of the Class of '30 when I was a Sophomore. All of them were my classmates, and I can still remember the fine times we had together. lVe all came back that year to P. H. S. in September of 1927 to begin a new school year. VVe were Sophomores then and happy from our recent trip around the world when we were Freshmen. The class as a whole was very socially inclined. Of course, we had to have some who were able to lead us, so a meeting was held, and Mary Burgan chosen president, Miss johnson and Mr. Brown as sponsors and Charles NVeber as our howling cheer leader. Our first social gathering was in the form of a delightful Hallowe'en party held at the Holly Roof-probably the first party in which the boys really mixed with the girls. Try to stop them now. - Our financial condition necessitated a bake sale, Which, thanks to the girls and George Boone, was a great success. And so our class rapidly progressed, and we all seemed to know more of each other by our social activities. Each member of our class had an interesting something about him or her. john Beisel could always be depended on for bright ideas which usually led him to a Starr. George Serfass surely spends a lot of time at Mootz's lately. VVe wonder which of the sweets he is most' interested in. Charles VVeber talks a lot in school, perhaps he is practicing cheers. VVilliam I-Iill's mathematical ability makes him an asset to any class. George and Jay Marsden decided to change to a four-year high school course and were optimistic enough to rate their athletic ability in a year or two. Truxton Williams shaves three times a day to keep that school boy complexion. Victor Tamanosky lives in God's-'country where only the survival of the fittest is realized. That's why he comes to P.' H. S. Joe Lagus wouldn't come to school at all if he wasn't interested in the basketball captaincy. William Thomas is becoming a great orator in study hall. f-K'ff7'Ti7 If ' ,jrigiiiigeajiga ig f-'r Sim? tel. IQEM. W iisefwf ,fee ss. I .gi if W ii Page 43 XXX WX . - W Um mf mg 5522?

Bob Mootz and Thomas Grady keep the trail hot as they deligently pursue their lessons, and also help lllary and lllarion with their's. Lester Schuyler, Leslie Seamen and George Smith are valuable assets to the class. George Stabingas has a smile for everyone, including his school teachers. Earl Stephenson shows signs of an intellect handed down from his elders??? Pat,' Sweeney is a very remarkable fellow-in and out of school. William May is a great roamer-on the piano and east side. Edwin Minnick is a great Latin scholar. Maybe helll be a Caesar. Edward Zacko has a different suit and girl for every day in the Week.

Dorothy Heath is a good sport and didn't hold out on the school about curling her hair. Mary Maley must have been the model for that Schoolgirl Complexion. Arwilda Lawrence is the class vamp. She will land someone if it's the last thing she does. We don't know much about jean Artz, but she probably has someone in view because it's leap year. Wherever there is a group of girls talking, Catharine Holt is right there to give her opinion. High School boys Do We implore, , And also girls Like Mary Shore. We are quite sure Evelyn Hoke could obtain a position anywhere with those eyes. fwxrf' f' 5. , 'ii' 5 Cfe ,g: , ,.,.: gx g f- 5 HR if W W Sill ij? 'xg 5 ml I limi E- lin, f ceee ii M ,M 1- ' ....-.

POTTSVI LLE HIGH VVe treasure Margaret Schlitzer more than a pot of gold. Frances Nloyer can always be seen at basketball games. Why? - Ruth Diamond, although small in stature, is a glittering light to the class. Alice VVeiner's one ambition is to get to school on time. We would like to know what attraction seems to draw Evelyn Yaisle so near to the orchestra when she goes to the Capitol Theatre. Helen Wertley, tall and slim, Has her eyes on a certain him, Ella Staller is like a pullman conductor's daughter because she gives everybody a wide berth. Mary Burgan, popular lass, Has the prettiest teeth In the Sophomore class. You can always depend on lllildred Sterner for help in class. Laura Royds is quite fond of sleigh-riding, as she likes Bobs Catherine Scherzinger still thinks she's a Freshman, as she is a wearer of much green. Miriam Baker is a sweet girl, even though Baker's chocolate is bitter. Marion Treon and Catharine Lightcap are considering starting a taxi service for the basketball team if the tires hold out. Muriel Lloyd danced her way to many hearts. Harry Yoder will make a good grocer, as he knows his A's and P's. We see Elias Barket as proprietor of a theatre some day. John Seitzinger helped look out for the school's money during basketball season. We think Helen Picus takes more time to curl her hair than anything else. But Helen knows best, and we agree with her. Francis Bosche is a great French student, judging by his name and the work he does. Bashful Harold Weaver abhors all women. He is a student only. Dan Deibler is a value to any class. His quiet, courteous ways make him popular. Although Sylvan Diamond uses the cut-out on his Rolls Royce, he doesn't follow the same system with his lessons. Gerald Jacoby comes from the village of Palo Alto. He is a great walker and even walks away with his lessons. Emily Stagg will always be known to us as a good scholar. i Anna Heinback is a newcomer, and we know she will succeed like her sister. ...M f'WwE,,,.. -1, in fi fgfiww-WM ifQ?wLf5f?.:g ia,if2rgi ie: g ?gf.t.bf.ifti.iMmilWl.'......5'45i 'm':' A' ff if ,,.. ggasre'ar t : W .Q M' 'W 'M' is .... jg P 46 Ag , W' W age gm 5533 gg in - Mg i -we , g 'r ',4Q1 52 it i 'V'-.,'N's. rid' iii' 'ii' 1 -tam ' ...t -..,:4 i ' ' - M ...W -, POTTSVI LLE HIGH Catherine Marrah and Frances Rohrer could get anywhere with their disposition. Catherine Reddington and Pauline Shoup are the quietest girls we know. We see no reason. Maude Koch always approves what the teachers say because she knows they're wright. Grace Welker, Very fair, Has about The prettiest hair. Lillian Williams appears to us as being quite bashful. We wonder. So, sobbed Marion Tamanosky, Ivan Dononosky died the other day. Did he utter my name when he was dying ? Part of it, said the nurse. Mary Werez was probably the first girl in the Sophomore Class who started to wear the cute frock. Margaret Cunningham and Mildred Dando are two members of our class whom we shall always classify as our friends. Isabelle Doublesteen's motto is, Get your man, and we believe that someday she will get him. Mildred McKnight has a nice disposition, and that accounts for her many friends. We are quite positive that Gwendolyn Laudeman and Anna Thompson are always glad when Sunday comes. Marie Mahoney and Martha Rees are never found at leisure. They are known for their good work, especially Caesar. Everybody is trying to get on the good side of Bessie Blacker because she keeps record of the girls' tardinesses. Jennie Parry and Theresa Kunstek may be small, but they know that the smaller they are, the nicer, which is all very true. ' Sara Snyder seems to be in the same fix as her friend. She doesn't know whom she likes better, Joe or blue eyes. Catharine Bright and Jane Halberstadt would miss many good times if they were separated. Dot Spence falls for everything that appeals to her, which makes her a good student. Clarissa Prifer is a good horse-back rider as well as a good student. Marie Powers is quite a dancer and may even end up with Ziegfield. MARY DIRSCHEDL, HENRY ESTERLY, Historians.

One man thought the Hollywood was on fire because everyone seemed to be hurrying that way,'but they were only going to the Circus held at the Hollyroof by the Class of '3l. There was no getting near the place save by using main force. However, we finally managed to get to the hall after a two-hour struggle, but since the crowd had rather strenuously objected to our getting into the hall, quite a number of them had taken pieces of our clothing as souvenirs, and we fitted very well in the Circus as bums. If everything wasn't like a real circus we don't know what you'd call it. They had everything from elephants to pink lemonade. The big tent stood in the middle of the floor, and all the smaller ones were lined along the sides. The side show looked promising with Mildred Heenly, Mildred Yashan and Theresa Myers warming up the boards to the strain of Gertrude Barket's uke. However, the hot dog stand looked even more promising, and in that direction we took our famished selves. As we were passing one of the stands we stopped to admire the chic little dresses Francis Myer was chancing off, but to our disgust, after winning one, We found they were only lamp shades. john Minchoff yelled Hot dogs with enough volume to raise the roof, but Hazel Koons and Margaret McCord surely did serve us Hpedigreed pups. As we approached the side show we heard the barker in his small, soft-toned, easy voice. It was Bill Dimmerling. Dudly Tuckerman was the tallest man in the world. Esther Hertzog, the world's famous midget, stood making eyes at Edward Hawley. We asked Francis Zimmerman and Risa Cooper, the tallest women in the world, how the weather was up there. Cora Witmer, the only stout lady Qwho wasn't so stout after alll had fallen asleep in the booth.

Arline DeLong sent the shivers down our back cuddling her pet snakes. Elizabeth Laymon was a sort of mysterious silent woman. Charles Glunz was the strong man. Charlie is very strong and owes his success to strong, smelly onions. Ora Barger and Wilma Alspach were the rivals of the Siamese Twins. Red Yocum was the last of the wild tribe of Borneo. He was black yet had red hair. Atwood Freed was a sword swallower. After his performance he was on edge all night. Next we came on Bill', Gray, the tatoo man, who was quite popular. He could decorate you with anything from your sweetheart's picture to an anchor Cguaranteed not to fadel. We left the side show in a hurry. We were afraid they would add us to their collection. We came next on a mysterious little tent. Seeking to learn our future, we crossed Mary Brobst's hand with silver, but all she dug up was our dark past, which we wish to forget. A sign at another tent informed us that the TIN Orchestra was inside. We entered, and those old German Bands had nothing on what we heard. The world's famous artists and their instruments Cof torturej are listed below: Catherine Zacko, violin Ca disguised frying pan in harmony with a Hy swatterj. Le Verne Weigand, traps fa wash boiler and lids resulting in a violent earth- quakej. Clara Yeich, saxophone fa percolator and whistle, an excellent imitation of a cat fightb.

Remember Nels did so good in the Oratorical Contest. The din in the menagerie tent was almost deafening. Inside were beautiful adver- tisements. Some were: Get the Good Pointy Ones, Buechley's Tootpicks Other Forms of Lumber Also If It's Printing, Consult R. A. Fertig Like a Baker, He Knows His Pis John 81 Harrold Beecher 85 Co. Two Busy Bees All Kinds of Lawyering Done The first thing we came upon was the herd of elephants. Joe Lee looked like two elephants. Tony Caravan helped to make up the rest of the herd. In a huge cage the lions Csocialj, Charlotte Knowles, Mildred Scharadfn, Ruth Flower, Dot Lott, Analorraine Potts, Marie Weissinger, Margaret Zerbey, Mgrgaret Horn, Marian Higgins, Margaret Hopkins and Anna Kneble, roared and laughed, and to our horror continued merrily at a game of bridge. The performance was already begun when we entered the tent. The elephants were in a ring performing with Bill Warne on top of one, Legs Kershner. Bill is always up on something. The acrobats, Mary Flaig and Marian Wertz did their twists and turns to help make the show a success. Paul Guensch, Romain Eckert, Samuel Julian and Francis Keating next gave an exhibition. It was during the act that Guensch, holding Eckert and Keating on his outstretched arms and Julian balanced on his nose, sneezed and Julian's foot slipped down his mouth. . !'w r fr KT? , ' Nw?

Lester Sherry and Eugene Gluck gave an act on the tight-rope. It was in the course of the act that Gluck's red hair became too much for Sherry, and he was overcome by the heat. The chariot race came next. Harry Donkin came dashing out in a big red chariot. Harmen Dewitt, during the course of the race, made his horse laugh, and the horse- feathers stood up. He won the race by a horsefeather. just then the loud voice of Charlie Keim was heard, Peanuts',! The fsocialj lions were brought out. Ruth Boyer, Ruth Bast and Charlie Holstein were the lion tamers. Everyone knows that when they set out to do something they usually tame it. Sinew Hasler, Strongchest Brokhoff, Muscular Art Bell, Bonecrusher Hipple, Gatecrusher Lord and Skullcracker DuBois next gave a wonderful exhibition in the air as acrobats. This was unusual, they they are seldom up in the air. They were accompanied by the famous Darwin Band composed of Paul Lewis With the big bass horn, William Moyer with a little Hfeg Francis Moyer, cornet, David Ruch had the traps, he usually does make a big noise, Jack Steidel had his trusty sax , Albert Meyers was pushing on his trombone, and Robert Nagle was mining the piano. After the acrobats, Earl Schaffer, bassg VVill Schoeneman, soprano, Mason Rowell, tenor, and Bruce Phillips gave an exhibition of vocal sounds. After this came the famous inseparatesf' This act met with great approval, since Louise Warne, Olga Bader, Margaret Portz and Jean Burd were starring in it. Little dashing Jack Dechant gave an exhibition on a bicycle wheel. Jack made us all think we were in Wheeling. Dorothy Giltner was a clown, and her tricks were done very smartly. Tony Cerullo made everyone laugh by giving an ideal way to hold on to one's hat. Tony has lost three hats this season and at this certain time he had one chained to his foot. fe 's,fMN't' fm if ,s,if?12'm33'E5wK3Q ga. ??-aw ,NE I, s-'11 ws..

Ada Portland and Rachel Berkheiser were wild and wooly cowgirls. Dickenson, Haak and Evans made their horses do all kinds of tricks. On our way out, Lillie Lewin persuaded us to buy some pink lemonade, and in a booth Kathryn Johnson was chancing off some dolls. But when we saw Elizabeth Boyer, Emily Warmkessel, Margarite Naher, Blanch Schoffstall and Kitty Reber on a shelf, we were inclined to think that Lillie had sold us some pre-war stuff. After this we began to feel our hunger coming on and were just getting ready to dine when we heard an awful explosion in the dining hall. We all rushed in expecting to see a terrible distaster, but found out it was only Neill Hamer, who, having tried one of his well-known experiments, lay in a broken mass. We got the janitor, who was none other than Goliath Davis, to brush away the remains so we could eat. Melva Roberts and Christobella Seaman served the lunch. Is it any wonder we couldn't keep our minds on the dinner? John Higgins then gave a well-known speech about the two Irishmen, one of them being Mr. Mulholland. Kathryn Speacht and Louise Trabosh then gave an exhibition of juggling dishes. Out of five only one remained whole, and that was badly cracked. Then Louie Fritz asked, What was that ring? Dando answered that he must have heard the napkin ring. The disappearing act was done by Juel O'Neil and David O'Brein. Ethel Thorpe became so excited that she slipped and fell in the soup. When the act was over and the victim's, James Schofield, watch returned, only the springs and wheels remained. Then Augusta Graf, VVilliam Whims, Sarah Frankenstein, Juel O'Brein and Dot Rissinger sang Home Sweet Home. We took the hint and left after a happy night. ' OLGA BADER, WILLIAM GRAY, Historians.

A short time after the first semester had begun, a class meeting Was held and Miriam Baker elected president. Our first and only social event of the year was a party held at the Hollyroof. Our class also took a prominent part in the annual Christmas Pageant. So ended the year of 1926. With the arrival of 1927 We Were classified as Senior Commercials. Our first class meeting resulted in the election of the following officers: Marie Koons, presi- dentg Claude Shoemaker, vice-president. Next we turned our attention to sports. Both the boys and the girls displayed their interest by working hard on their class teams. The boys played with the Sopho- mores on the football and baseball teams. The girls organized a basketball team which was coached by Miss Sachs. They played both class and neighboring town teams. The boys also had a successful basketball team. Then came the Christmas season and for the second time in the history of the Commercial Department, the Junior and Senior Commercials participated in the Christmas program by giving a playlet entitled, A Fifteen-Minute Christmas Dinner. The first semester ended, and we held a meeting, electing Marie Klein president and Emma Smith historian. Most of us are entering the business world, a few will enter higher business schools or conservatories of music. So our school days end with pleasant and cherished memories, and we leave this school of learning to enter that greater institution, the school of life, with the sincere hope that our future will prove just as successful as has our past. fm Kfw 'xf'W Hr 5' .4',..1'ZQ h 1 in ? 5 gr fr lzitisw iiiii? e mg, ii L-fr' ws 3535?

She is interested in at least one of the opposite sex, but does not speak of him much. However, he pays up for her silence by continually impersonating a phono- graph. The Class of '28 wishes her much success in the future. CLEO BEACH We wonder if Cleo is related to Cleopatra. It sounds like it, but we may be mistaken. Sam is one of our distinguished typists and gigglers. Cleo does not like the boys, with one excep- tion. And we can't blame her for always talking with him. Much success in the days to come, Cleo. ELIZABETH CARUSO Betty is the only one in the class who does not talk or bother about anyone else's affairs. She is always hard at work studying. She is our best bookkeeper, and we wonder how she does it. In scholastic lines she is making a name for herself as did her brothers and sisters. The class wishes her the best of luck. ELLA DEEB Ella is very fond of drawing pictures of various articles. She played on the Senior Commercial basketball team to keep her sylph-like figure in shape? She is very intimate with Betty. We wish her much success and hope that some day she will become a famous commercial artist. KATHRYN DOYLE Kitty is one of our promising stenographers. She is fond of Jalappa and a certain person, together with his Chrysler roadster. She was the side-center on the Senior Commercial basketball team and is very active in school affairs. We give her our best wishes in the future. MAE ENDERS Mae's most noted expression is, What I've been taught I've forgotten and what I know I've guessed. She is very quiet when asleep and takes life easy when awake. She does not tax her brains with studying. She likes commercial law, but then the reason sits in front of her. Good luck, Mae.

Although she is very talkative, she is quite studious and seldom fails to recite when called upon. Much success to f'Mina in the future. CATHERINE C-OTTSCHALL Kate is also one of The Triple Group.

She is some chattererg nevertheless, she is a good typist, and we hope she may some day be somebody's stenogf' VVe wish her much luck. CAROLINE GRIESEL 'fCoz is very much interested in Valley View, but we can't say why because we donlt know. She was the captain of the Junior hockey team and is quite a good player. She travels a lot fin her mindj. She is also vice-president of the class. We wish her success. CATHERINE HORNUNG Catherine is another of f'The Triple Group. She is very quiet, but when she gets started the only difference between her and a radio is that you can shut the radio off. We wish her success. GWENDOLYN JONES GWennie is small, but not very quiet. She has a good time in activities period when the teacher is not looking, but we don't blame her a bit, for we are all the same.

ELIZABETH LEIBNER Elizabeth is the champion featherweight of the class? She is a first-class typist, but otherwise she takes things easy. VVe do not know what she intends to take up after leaving school, but we hope to hear of her in the role of a first-class typist. Much sureess, Elizabeth.

She is always talking, and we believe she could go all day if permitted. She is popular with both the boys and girls and is good in her studies. She is a model student, and we wish her much success as a speaker in the future. CAROLYN NAGLE 'tBlondy certainly can talk in law class, and it is all directed towards the fellow in back of her. She played on the Senior Commercial basketball team. Through Blondy we found out why gentlemen prefer blondes. She hopes to be somebody's stenog, and we wish her the best of luck. ELIZABETH PORTZ Betty is one of our Very quiet girls and keeps everything to herself. But there is one person for which she positively will not keep quiet. He is a blonde, and we hope she will not wear out too much shoe leather walking with him on Centre Street. We give her our best regards. ALICE REITER Alice is one of our few blondes.

He is the most carefree boy in our class. The girls have no attraction for himg he thinks they look better at a distance. We do not know what George will take up, but we wish him all kinds of luck. CLAUDE SHOEMAKER Claude is one of our quiet boys when called upon in English elassg otherwise he does not seem to be so speechless. He is the smallest boy in the class, but it makes no diI'l:erence, as he is in everything that happens. Nipper was captain of the boys' bas- ketball team. The class expects to hear much of him in the future. EMMA SMITH Iimma is small but quite popular. She is a participant in our plays and is dependable in anything she undertakes. She is a great booster for the school. We do not know to what great heights Emma will rise, but '28 wishes her much success. MARGARET STABINGAS Peggy's one and only ambition is to get thin. If she keeps playing basketball as she did we are sure she can lose ten pounds a week. Then, too, she lives in Arnot's Addition and gets her daily dozen by riding to and from school on the bus. The class wishes her success. SARA THORNBURG Sara is a lover of bagging school and being late. She travels with the Seniors and surely can get the boys to admiring her. She is quiet in English class, but no one knows why. Best regards for a prosperous future, Sara.

Few men remained from the previous year's team, and the many gaps had to be filled with inexperienced material. We were even further incumbered by the small squad which reported. Our future promised little, and yet, in a way, we were to be surprised. After a few weeks of hard and faithful preliminary practice, the team was ready to battle and, much to our astonishment, looked fairly strong. Predictions ran high, but, as is generally the case, they proved to be slightly misleading. Our first game was with Blythe Township. It was played on September 24 at the Pottsville Sports Center, which grounds we used throughout the season. Blythe's hopes ran as high as ours, however, and after the dust had cleared, it was quite evident that the first game would be tabulated as a defeat. Blythe had triumphed 12-0. After a week's practice the team journeyed to Coaldale, where they battled that team to a 7-7 tie. The game was entirely in our favor and should have been wong however, this did not detract from the action, as Coles consistently made large gains on his sweeping end runs. The next fray proved to be the triumph of the season. The team met and defeated Reading on their own field. Score, 19-O. It was in this game that Moore intercepted a pass behind his own goal and with the aid of the perfect interference of his team- mates ran 101 yards for a touchdown. The team was highly praised for their won- derful victory. Still smarting from last year's defeat of 59-0, the Pottsville team was out to down Sunbury. The game was played at Pottsville. Sunbury, however, expected to duplicate that victory, and after a very evenly waged battle Pottsville was forced to admit defeat by the low score of 7-0. This was without a doubt the best game of the season. October 22 arrived, and the team made the trip to Bethlehem to play what was considered the hardest game on the schedule. Gould starred in this game, but had to be taken out when he was injured. The game ended in favor of Bethlehem, 13-6. The next game, Nesquehoning at Pottsville, was predicted as an easy win, but proved to be one of the hardest fought games of the season. In it we suffered our worst defeat. Score, 19-6. f fs f,.w-a..xf,T 'V 's,,..f Q .. N: , fe - - te .H . 1 k s- Q4 ,f A. Q,.,....,...r4.fggw,1n fi ,J ..'4:g...ar' 2' .ffl V, r f gm .

Q- .MN wk-yxns POTTSVI L.LE HIGH The game at Mahanoy City on November 6 was scheduled as a football game, but ended in a swimming and diving exhibition from which the team returned with most of the rain and snow soaked field and a 0-0 score. Bell, Reed and Coles proved to be the headliners of the match. Allentown journeyed to Pottsville with a record of an uncrossed goal in two con- secutive seasons. But here it was to end, for, although we were defeated by thf- score of 20-7, we had the honor of crossing their goal, which meant almost as much as a victory. This was Reed's day, and he excelled in running back the kicks, one of which he returned for 60 yards. Pottstown, away, gave us another setback. Here again we were sure of winning, but returned defeated. Score, 13-6. Pottsville proved its power by holding Pottstown to no gain through the line, but when Pottstown shifted to an aerial attack, which continued throughout the whole second half, Pottsville was at a loss to find means of successfully breaking it up 3 hence the defeat. Thanksgiving Day saw Reed, Bell, Coles, Martz, Fitzpatrick, Rummel, Smedley, Wilchusky, Buckley and Boyle done their football togs the last time for their Alma Mater. The team played Shenandoah at Pottsville on a rain-soaked field. O'Hara had the spotlight. He played a perfect game at end, downing punts, intercepting passes and breaking up interference. But he was not alone in his glory, the entire team played a stellar game, only to be beaten by the score of 13-0. So the season ended. However, if you will glance over the high calibre teams played, look at the comparatively low scores and consider the prospects at the begin- ning of the season, you will undoubtably see that the season has been a success even though we won only one game.

Nlore players participated, better sportsmanship was displayed, and the race for the championship was just as close, if not closer than the preceding year. Thus there is little doubt but that the league enjoyed prosperity and that it will continue for years to come. Last year, after a hard uphill fight, the team representing the Class of 1927 won the championship. This year it was the Class of 1929 that annexed the title. Although they emerged victorious, the Juniors found the road to the title rough. Both the Senior and Sophomore elevens proved to be in the running up to the last game. The Freshmen, although outclassed, pulled the surprise of the year when they defeated the strong Sophomore combination. During the season an All-League team was selected and sent to Pine Grove, where they were defeated by a score of 13-7. This team was chosen but two nights before the game and was instructed by Mr. Hoke, who so ably coached the Juniors to the championship. Following are the records for the season: Team Won Lost Pct.

A call for candidates by Coach Williams early in December netted a squad of seventy-five ambitious passers. After thinning down the ranks, fifteen men remained. Practice brought out the best, and the probable varsity consisted of Moore, Fitz- patrick and Rummel alternating at forward, Bell, Wilchusky and Martz at guard, and Reed at center. The first game, Port Carbon at Pottsville, was played at the armory and proved successful for the crimson by the score of 43-19. Niece, Holt, Reid and Reilly saw service in this game. December 19 saw the oflicial opening of the Eastern Pennsylvania lnterscholastic Basketball League, and with it came a victory for P. H. S. when they downed Beth- lehem by the score of 19-12. This was Martz's first game. The next fray was at Coatesville. The floor conditions certainly hampered the crimson, and they lost by a 36-22 count. The closing of the armory sent the team to the improvised Moose Hall to con- tinue their schedule. Easton was the first opponent to be met here. After the bank- board had fallen and caused a long delay it was found that Easton was on the larger end of a 40-39 score. Serfass made his varsity debut. The band accompanied the teams to Lansford, where the boys suffered defeat by a count of 38-28. It was a hard-fought game throughout. The game of Friday, 13, was sure to be unlucky for someone. The team played Pottstown at Pottsville. Pottstown succumbed to the jinx, however, when a final period spurt made the final tally Pottsville, 39 C3xl3D, and Pottstown , 30. A four-hour bus journey placed the team in Doylestown on January 20, where they dropped the fray by a 35-22 talley. The game was played cleanly throughout, there being no personal fouls called during the entire first period. At Allentown P. H. S. again tasted defeat. A last-minute spurt made things look encouraging, but failed to secure us the victory. Score, 39-31. Bell did not appear in the game because of serious illness.

These worthies trounced the varsity to the tune of 41-32. The Hazleton game at Pottsville proved to be the hardest fought game of the season. It ended Hazleton, 365 Pottsville, 21. This game proved that there was not a better center in the league than Dicker,' Reed. The next game was with the same team, but at Hazleton. This time the fray proved almost disastrous to that town, for during the first three periods only one goal usually separated the scores. Four fouls, however, removed Martz and Wilchusky from the game which caused a perceptible slump and resulted in the score, Hazleton, 385 Pottsville, 22. The next two games, Allentown and Doylestown, at home, were lost. The first by a 38-28 score, and the second, 36-19. The next night the team journeyed to Hershey where the chocolate boys gave them the worst beating of the season, 50-38. Serfass entered the game and amassed 10 points, to be high scorer for the crimson. Pottstown, away, served us a 36-37 trouncing, and then, with only four games remaining, Coach Williams made a last and successful effort. The defeat of Easton by a 29-24 score started the rally, to be followed by Hershey, 27-263 Coatesville, 38-21, and Bethlehem, 37-25, all in favor of Pottsville. The Bethlehem contest was the last game for Bell, Reed, Rummel, Wilchusky and Martz. The entire squad saw service in this game. SEASON'S SUMMARY P. H. S. Opponent P. H. S.

The Seniors did not lose a game of the required league schedule. They also played and won many games outside of those required. The Senior quintet showed a powerful offense and defense which rendered their opponents helpless. - . The team was managed by Carl Rees and included Roland Edwards, captaing Charles Gould, forward, with Stuart llladenford alternating between forward and guardg Harold Lundy, guard, Jesse Gray, guard, Francis Doyle, guard, Ellsworth Coles, guard, and Walter Jones at center. The Juniors and Sophomores tied for second place with a record of two games won and two lost. Both teams showed about the same playing ability. Shoemaker was the outstanding star for the Juniors, while O'Hara and Schablein were the Sophomores' best players. The Junior roster contained Captain Shoemaker, Howell, Dormer, for- wards, Messersmith, Scharadin, centersp McCaHery, Wachter, Kriner and Cooper, guards. The team was managed by John Connors and coached by Mr. Hoke. The Sophomore line-up contained Richard Rees, manager, O'Hara, captain, Schab- lein, Williams, Stephenson, Pacenta, Bosche, Saltzer and Tamanosky. The Freshmen, in spite of their small size, gave a fine account of themselves. Gray, Sherry and Dimmerling were the outstanding players. The other members being Dewitt, center, Lynch, Lord and Wollyung, guards. Although no scoring records have been compiled at the writing of this article, it is believed that Gould, of the Seniors, led the league.

Track The first real call for track candidates was issued January third and was responded to by but a small squad. Various reasons contributed to cause the poor showing in numbers of the squad during the in-door season, the chief one being the fact that an entire veteran team was back from the previous year. This, with the feeling among the newcomers from the lower classes that they were not fast enough to practice with the varsity, and the long, hard weeks of training, all lent themselves to cut down the squad to about fifteen faithfuls. The 1928 in-door season was an undeniable success. The relay team 1nade faster average time than any other squad of in-door quarter-milers. Although the 440 in-door record was not broken, Edwards, Martz, Gould and Sterner all split the tape under fifty-nine seconds for the quarter. Hoffman was not far from that himself, and on this basis was made fifth man on the team. George Serfass, a Sophomore, surprised everyone by turning in nearly record time in the mile late in the in-door try-outs. All the field records were smashed during the winter months. Harry Reed created new records not only for the High School shot put and broad jump, but also for the entire Y. M. C. A. in those two events. Robert Reid smashed existing records for all time when he leaped five feet eight inches in the high jump. John Yaag, veteran pole vaulter, and Hassler, a Freshman, both established new indoor records in that event. The relay men started the outdoor grind the first week of April. Both the Schuylkill County Fair Grounds and Georges Field, Reading, served as the scene for conditioning the boys and accustoming them to the fickle spring weather. Fast time trials in the quarter were made on both fields. In one of the trials on the Reading field the relay quartette broke the mile relay record for that track. In all the trials the four men and the two substitutes, Hoffman and llloore, gave ample cause for the belief that here was Pottsville High's greatest mile quartette. So, indeed, it proved to be. On Friday, April 27, the relay squad, consisting of Edwards, llflartz, Gould, Sterner and Hoffman, together with Coach Murray, Manager Paul Matthews and his assistants, Allen and Carlin, left for Franklin Field, Philadelphia. Friday was a miserable, cold, windy and rainy day. Saturday, the day of the big race, could hardly have been more terrible. Cold wind, snow, low temperature, rain, all contributed to make Franklin Field a veritable quagmire. Pottsville High with its light team seemed doomed. By good luck the rain abated slightly for Pottsville's race, and this gave the runners more heart. The teams lined up with Pottsville fourth from the pole. The pistol- and the race was on. For the first hundred yards Sterner put up one of the gamest fights witnessed in any race. With mud caked on his glasses and a spike wound in his foot Pete finally emerged on the back stretch in a neck and neck race with Albany's man. Around dead man's curve they still ran tie, and now a new menace, Battin, came up from the ranks. But Pete, throwing his entire reserve strength into his running, drew away to hand Edwards a yard or two, at least enough for him to grab the pole.

Flashing perfect form, he ran as pretty a race as anyone ever saw. Albany had now dropped at the fast pace, and the race was between Battin and Pottsville. Rolly uncorked a fine sprint on the home stretch. Inch by inch, foot by foot, he gained, until the frail but gritty runner handed Martz a lead of five yards. lliartz and the Battin runner were of the same type, big, heavy, powerful. The big fellows pounded through, running one of the fastest races of the day. Martz was leading at the 110, but, to the anxiety of the Pottsville crowd, gave ground and was passed. The Battin runner there gave his all, and the home stretch was easy for Bill, as he sprinted to lead by seven yards. Here Prof. Murray's master hand showed itself. On the clever baton pass Gould gained at least three yards and headed the procession by ten yards, with the giant colored anchor man of Battin in second place. All the others were too far back to throw a scare into the leaders. This was Gould's first race at Franklin Field, while his opponent was a seasoned veteran, and the Pottsville cohorts, hoping for the best, saw it happen. The negro sprinted in a vain effort to over-haul the Hying miner, but this was not to be. Although he managed to get within three yards of Chuck on the last 100, the Pottsville boy left out a tremendous burst of speed to win by fifteen yards, with the cheers of his friends ringing in his ears. The time when announced was 3:42, which, when one considers the track, was record-breaking. As it Was, only two High Schools were faster, and all were from schools of 3,500 or more. This team was, without exception, the fastest in the annals of Pottsville track. But the team is not through, for they are entered in the Scranton meet, the P. I. A. A. meet at Lehigh and the County meet. The field men will endeavor to further add to our laurels at the Coaldale and County meets. These teams have given their best and have amply repaid the untiring efforts of Prof. lylurray and Manager Nlatthews, who have made this season the greatest in the annals of Pottsville High. aaa-so Wed' ,fMef'f,f 1' 'e ,A , X, sex Us -5 Wi? 4 gf ,, 'lg X f ' .. ..,..a..,a', eu... ,, g 5 , 53 2 1, ,J X . . ,, Wm mx?

M 'ine rn gn -on 'vc Hockey Hockey season opened early in October, this year, with numerous bangs and Crashes. There were many aspirants from all four classes, and their spirit was of the best, for every practice was well attended. After several weeks of hard drill, the teams clashed in the semi-finals. The morning of Armistice Ilay saw the Seniors defeat the Juniors in a hard-fought game by the seore 3-ll. The Sophomore-Freshman game was played immediately afterwards, the Sophomores enierging victorious by the overwhelming seore 9-O. Un NVL-dnesday, November 23, the Seniors and Sophomores fought for the inter- elass championship. Although the field was covered with mud, it was one of glory for the Seniors, who conquered by the close margin 2-0. The hockey squads wish to thank Illary Ilimmerling who coached the four teams throughout the season. Nlueh of the success of hockey this year rested upon her guidance.

Although the season was not a success, judging by scores, it was one of good sportsmanship and fun. The trolley strike deprived us of our usual bus and threatened to involve us in a complete tie-up. But three friends, Blake Hobbs, Francis Doyle and George Seiders, came to our succor, and we had private cars and an orchestra bus, which are much more genteel and quick. At Shenandoah there is a tiled, indoor, swimming pool, which offered much enjoy- ment to us poor land lubbers who indulged in this entertainment after the game. There were seventeen on the squad picked from the seventy girls who reported at the first practice. Grace Higgins and Rlarguerite Portland were the only letter girls from last year. The rest, although comparatively new material, performed admirably in all games in which they participated. The season's tabulated results are: December 9 .............. Port Carbon CHD .....

The lack of varsity competition seems only to have stimulated the classes to better efforts, and the struggles between them are often lively and close. Last year, the opening year of the lntra-Mural League, found the Juniors undefeated league champions. As a result, they earned and were given an automobile trip to the Athletics Ball Park in Philadelphia to see that team in action. This year, through the courtesy of Harroldls Sporting Store, gold baseballs will be presented to the winning team. But even class baseball is expensive, and in order not to place too much of a burden on the various classes, a mammouth school-wide bake sale was held, the proceeds of which were used to pay off the debts of the various teams. As this is being written, the first round of the schedule has been played, and the Seniors and Freshmen are tied for first place.

This organization is composed of not more than fifty members: Twenty Seniors, fifteen Juniors, ten Sophomores and five Freshmen, who are interested in oratorical work. Several of the meetings were especially outstanding. In December each member responded to the roll call with a Christmas quotation. At another time when the meeting was devoted to the life and works of Edna St. Vincent Millay, the roll call system was again used, and much of her poetry was brought to light. A detailed account of her life was also given. The February meeting cited the influence of George VVashington on literature. The Sophomores took charge of the Nlarch meeting and presented a very clever one-act play. The cast took their parts unusually well and held the attention of the audience from beginning to end. The Society secured two speakers for chapel: Miss Laura Heebner, who delighted the school with her readings at Christmas, and lllrs. Nlary Thurlow, who spoke very entertainingly at a later date. A representative of the Society journeyed to Hazleton in the spring and competed with girls from other schools in the Jane Adams Debating Club contest. This Society was made possible through the efforts and interests of lvliss Florence Short, and her work is appreciated by all those connected with it.

Page 91 POTTSVILLE HIGH Art Club The Art Club was created after several months of unceasing effort on the parts of James Morrison and William Gray, ably assisted by the art directress, Miss Kathryn Davis, to organize the artists of Pottsville High School. In the past there has been no opportunity for art work in the high school, although its need has been keenly felt. Unfortunately, art has not been distributed evenly in P. H. S., for it was discov- ered at the first gathering that art predominates among the girls. It was soon found that work could not continue Without some financial aid. An appeal was made through the P. T. A. to the School Board, who very graciously appropriated a sum for our needs. The members were given the choice of two courses, the industrial art course or that of sketching. The industrial course was chosen by most of the girls. Beautiful, unique nut bowls, candy jars, vases, bread boards and book covers were produced by their skillful hands. The members interested in sketching produced sketches of photographs and noted pictures. Later in the course, members of the club were selected as models. In the spring the club took short walks to surrounding beauty spots, where the scenery was sketched at first hand. At the conclusion of the semester an exhibit was held at which excellent work was presented. The club hopes that the success of this year's Art Club will be doubled next year. The members of the club are: Emily Albanese, Emilie Althouse, Olga Bader, Ruth Beck, Harold Beecher, Rachel Berkheiser, Risa Cooper, Margaret Deeney, William Gray, Anna Gross, Laura F ernsler, Kathryn Holt, Klein Krimmel, Betty Lidy, Anna Linden, Robert Michel, Betty Moore, Mary Mootz, Senia Mortimer, James Morrison, Madeline Mulqueeny, Mary Reilly, Goldy Rosensweig, Emma Schott, Doris Sheets, Lois Shomo, Mary Shore, Marian Sylvester, Frank Thompson, Edna Williams, Violet Zimmerman. rw .Wm .NW ,wwww 1 , ' 1 f Q i ,Wim H 5' , Q...

In all likelihood we would not have such a splendid history of music in this school if it were not for the intense interest shown by the early inhabitants of Pottsville. Every settler enjoyed musicg in fact, most of them owned a musical instrument. The most popular were the violin and flute, which were so handy to carry, and which were the most highly developed at that period. Music was the principle agency that soothed their troubled and weary spirits in the days when the hardships and trial were so numerous. Although we have no exact record of the musical activities of our school in the past, We have nevertheless been told by many of our alumni that music flourished in their school days. A few annuals of other years show us pictures of orchestras and bands, which, though small, were able to render standard classics admirably. Tiny May is proud of the fact that one of the orchestras in which he played rendered the Hungarian Rhapsody to perfection. Following this period of success came a time when music was at a low ebb. To be sure, there were jazz orchestras covering a period of about six years. But these organizations did not contribute anything to the cultural life of the institution. These six years were disheartening to those musically minded people of the school and com- munity who were about to seek financial aid from the School Board. This situation was not caused by lack of musicians. There were many musicians in the school who hungered for ensemble experience. VVhether the school authorities were at fault or the students themselves were disinterested it is not for us to determine. We are sure of this, however, that Pottsville High School failed to promote music on a large scale until Professor Franklin VV. Moser accepted the oliice of principal. He immediately organized an orchestra which numbered forty players. He also revived the glee club and the band. At many of the assemblies he encouraged the more talented ones to render solos. From these facts we may truthfully say that we are making progress, and those who are following the trend of public school music believe that we are on the verge of a great musical revival that will cause all students to pursue some branch of music, thus fulfilling the dreams of those persons who played prominent parts in the musical history of Pottsville High School. f-. f wi' hifimixx 1' W h M, e no , f ' K .Hx VM, ,,,,, ...Wt s L , 35113 iff? iff ff' il Q , 5 WM... -W f.l,,,,5 7 M., vi-, A., My K i .1 mg i2ri'ig'i ?i'57'? :gift Pag'95 .

L 'gigs HIGH SCHOOL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA The Symphony Orchestra The Pottsville High School Orchestra, now boasting a membership of forty-five, was organized in the fall season of 1926. The membership in the first year totalled forty players. The Parent-Teachers Association sponsored all the activities and provided the money necessary to organize and manage such a large body of musicians. After a long season of hard work a concert was arranged which pleased the sponsors, the youthful musicians and the musical public. Commencement exercises at Pottsville proved to be the last appearance of the orchestra for that season. Notwithstanding the fact that half of its members were lost by graduation, the orchestra totalled forty players at the beginning of this term. Professor George Seltzer, a successful orchestra director and teacher, was chosen to assume the leadership of this organization. From the very start his labors were successful. The initial public appearance of the orchestra for this concert season was on October 12. On this occasion Miss Mildred Bass Anderton assisted the orchestra in providing entertainment for the large audience that had assembled. As the Christmas holidays approached, the orchestra traveled to Harrisburg, where they broadcasted at the State Capitol Radio Station. Professor Frank W. Moser appeared on the same program. Mr. Moser addressed the radio audience on the subject of Pottsville, wherein was contained a review of its brilliant history, its thriving industries, and the social organizations, together with the schools and churches. After the last selection had been played the radio officials congratulated Professor Seltzer on the splendid concert given by the orchestra and pronounced it the finest school orchestra that had broadcasted at that station. Bus transportation was furnished by the Rotary Club of Pottsville. The Pottsville Forum next invited our orchestra to give a short concert preceding the speech by Alan White, at one of their regular meetings. The audience included not only Pottsvillians, but hundreds of out-of- town people, all of whom enjoyed the music. After a few more concerts the orchestra closed its most successful season. The prospects for future years are very bright. This year there are only a few leaving the orchestra. The large influx of musical students next year will not only swell our orchestra, but also put Pottsville High School in its rightful place in the musical life of the high schools of America.

Collegians Orchestras, like everything else, must have a beginning, and the P. H. S. Collegians, from the first unanimously accepted as the school's best jazz orchestra, dates back to February, 1927, when it organized under the name of the Junior-Sophomore Orchestra, for the purpose of making the Sophomore party a success. It has since risen to such heights that now it is in great demand. The orchestra, however, has had its ups and downs. Vacancies created through sickness, frantic searches for new members and many other setbacks have been experi- enced. Their worst task was getting started and breaking in the unexperienced mate- rial. but after several weeks of faithful practice they filled their first engagement, the Sophomore Party, and were so well received that a request was made they play in chapel. On May 12 and 13 this request was fulfilled by a program in the nature of a contest between the Senior and the Junior-Sophomore orchestras. At its conclusion there was no doubt in the minds of the students which was superior, and the new orchestra, using their victory to full advantage, changed its name to the one they now assume, The P. H. S. Collegians. Under this name they filled several major and minor engagements and then disbanded for the summer. Returning to school they furnished music at the opening program and then set to work to make a banner year. Two vacancies had to be filled, and a re-organization meeting was held. The orchestra was cut to six pieces, a constitution drawn up and substitutes elected. A few weeks later Alfred Hargey turned over his leadership to Willard LeVan, and George Refowich his managership to Robert Berner. The Col- legians were now ready to add to their achievements. Since then the orchestra has had many honors. It played in the Necho Allen Ballroom for the re-union of the Class of 1927 and received the name of Pottsville High's Musicians Extraordinary. Through the courtesy of Mr. Friedman the Col- legians were able to have their picture taken on the stage of the Capitol. The orchestra made its final appearance for the semester in chapel on January 27, in a Collegiate manner, and received many a hand on the performance. In conclu- sion, the orchestra wishes to thank the Symphony Orchestra from which it received its preliminary training, Gray and Doyle for aid in preparing and presenting programs, and all of their many friends who have helped them in reaching their present standing. fs' firpmffwmw ' 'fir' 59 A i ,f iivfef AS, r W' i7f.l.f..i77ii??i f7'r.i fr an if aglfflfgl--,T ...ag gi.i3iiq.g gifs, .ea-U,m ....... ,yy ,ang p,,N,.,.,5, .3,,,gg,,,...5.g.Qg:..

It has the feeling this year of a new comer in a town, beginning to feel at home. After a halting start in the fall, new officers were elected, and all began to move along smoothly under the leadership of Mrs. C. E. Alter. ' The programs have contained a series of talks from Professor Moser, giving parents an idea of his plans and purposes and clearing up many questions for parents as the series progressed. Splendid talks have been given on books, magazines, moving pictures and current literature by different members of the association. In February Dr. Leroy A. King, of the University of Pennsylvania, spoke to the association on the subject of High Schools and stirred up much enthusiasm and gave us a broader outlook on what can be done in a High School. In the March meeting a discussion took place under the direction of Dr. Warne and Dr. Kitto giving thoughts on adolescence from the physical and spiritual stand- point, and in April, looking toward the fact that many pupils leave school, not to continue their education, but to enter trades and industries, an interesting program on the choice of a vocation and preparation for a home was given. Financially the association has pursued its policy of breaking even. The orchestra has been maintained, 52550.00 donated to the Athletic Association, 510.00 to the track team, expending in all about 5S350.00, earned by two entertainments in October, a card party in January and a cake sale in December. In the spring the association was grieved to hear of the illness of Mrs. Alter, for by her persistence, patience and courage the spirit of doing things for our children has been kept uppermost in all the meetings which carries out the sentiment printed in the programs: They build too low VVho build beneath the sky.

H Q I SEI: 1 O E! CJ Minzzet One stormy afternoon in lwarch, demure colonial maidens and handsome bejeweled squires stepped from the shadows of the past and tripped through the stately steps of the lVIinuet. The Minuet, presented by the Seniors, was preceded by a colonial play which pic- tured a gay party given by the sister of Lord Howe in honor of Benjamin Franklin. A tempting bribe was offered America's famous representative, but he stoutly refused and brought the act to a climax with a brilliant defense of the colonies. Clara Elizabeth Dengler next appeared before the curtain, made a deep CL1l'tSCy and read the prologue to the Minuet. The curtains parted, and the dancers began their graceful steps. The quaint steps, lovely costumes, flashing swords and graceful dignity of the dance make it a traditional ceremony loved by P. H. S. Despite the many postponements and the blizzard accompanying its presentation, the Mixiuet was witnessed by many alumni and school friends who thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment.

The club, since its first introduction by Professor lwoser, has seen its membership always taxed to capacity, its weekly routine programs produced and received in the most commendable manner and its dramatic productions put over with appreciation only matched by the splendid acting. The purpose of the club, to quote lVIr. Moser, is To present the modern drama in its present form, to portray something of the lives of those actors and actresses who have made ever-living names behind the foot-lights and to study the growth of the stage, not only in the past and present, but in the probable future. The membership of the Club was limited to the two upper classes and a few of the second-year students. Each member applied himself diligently to whatever task was given him or to the efforts of those presenting certain phases of the drama. The club's weekly, and later monthly, presentations in the auditorium were given by well-coached casts, drawn from membersof the club, which never failed to do credit to the play and to the reflected glory of the club itself. The oflicers of the club are as follows: President, Robert Herman, Vice-President, Mary Fisher, Secretary, Betty Lidyg Treasurer, Herbert Stephenson. The members are : Emily Albanese, Emily Athouse, Sara Bast, Ruth Beck, Margaret Bell, Robert Bell, Robert Boyle, Adele Brenner, Catherine Bright, Esther Chadwick, Hannah Chadwick, Helen Conway, Margaret Cunningham, Jane Daddow, Margaret Deeney, Clara Dengler, Ruth Diamond, Mary Dirschedl, Isabelle Doublestein, Augusta Dohn, Marian Dresher, Sylvia Eber, Helen Eberle, Roland Edwards, Mamie Ernst, julia Farquhar, Mary Fisher, Emma Foster, Glenwood Freeze, Sophie Friedman, Katherine Grady, Anna Gross, jane Halberstadt, Robert Herman, Martha Hertzog, Grace Higgins, Nan Higgins, Catherine Holt, Mary Kaier, Klein Krimmel, Arwilda Lawrence, Grace Lechleitner, Willard LeVan, Betty Lidy, ,Catharine Lightcap, Murial Lloyd.

Stolid farmers cavorted with gay farmerettes through all the evening's pleasures. The entertainment was especially fine. Farmer Gray acted as master of ceremonies. After the grand march, prizes for the best costumes were awarded to the little milkmaid, Helen Eberleg Paul Matthews, who surely must have come in a 1900 model Ford, and William Kauffman, a gawky agent selling grain elevators. - A country rube, Smedley, gave an interesting talk on I-Iusbandryf' Six charming couples presented a real farmery square dance. Paul Rewere, a Dutch monologue, was offered by Pete Sterner, grotesquely attired. Little Red Riding Hood was given in pantomime by an especially clever cast headed by Sara Bast. Between each item of the program the class danced to the merry strains of the Collegians. The exhibit of stock underneath the balcony must not be forgotten-German dogs, prize-winning Jerseys, many vegetables and small animals all formed an attractive background. Plenteous refreshments were served at the conclusion of the program. Everyone pronounced this affair a most pleasurable shindig, and the members of the different committees should be congratulated on this achievement. D The Goose Hangs High Lovers of the drama in Pottsville were given the opportunity of seeing a first-class production, The Goose Hangs High, in the High School auditorium, February l, 1928. The play was sponsored by the Swarthmore Chautauqua Association, and the cast included New York players of a high calibre. The Goose Hangs High proved equally as popular as So This Is London, which was such a success last year. The Athletic Association netted approximately one hundred dollars on this play, and we hope that next year ever more people will avail themselves of the opporunity of seeing a worth-while drama.

A. dance held this year December twenty-eighth at the Holly- roof lived up to the standard established by preceding affairs of this kind. Four hundred alumni, undergraduates and friends of the High School attended the dance, and everyone enjoyed it. The hall was most attractive in its holiday attire of green and red. The decoration committee should be commended on their work, which gave the Roof such a fine appearance. The Florida Toreadors provided excellent music, including several novelty numbers. At intermission and between dances a number of Freshmen girls, attractively dressed in white smocks with stiff red collars and cuffs, served refreshments on the balcony. lvlembers of the Parent-Teachers Association supervised this important part of the program. T Miss hflarian Sylvester was chairlady of the committee, and much of the success of the dance can be attributed to her earnest endeavors. The A. A. dance is one of the most delightful memories of our High School days, and we sincerely hope that future classes in P. H. S. live up to this charming precedent. Athletic Supper Perhaps the most important social event of the 1927-28 season occurred the evening of March twenty-second when the Athletic Association tendered a supper to thl athletes of Pottsville High School. The old halls of P. H. S. have never looked so festive as on the night of this event. Drapes, Japanese lanterns and pennants all added to general colorful effect. Between the courses of the supper the assemblage sang favorite booster songs and some popular airs. Prof. Franklin W. llloser acted as toastmaster and led the fes- tivities throughout the evening. The principal speakers, each of whom he introduced with a witty remark, were: hir. VV. S. Farquhar, former football coach of P. H. S., Mr. Ed Zweibel, Dr. A. P. Knight, Prof. John Murray and Coach Charles Willianis. The true value of athletics was clearly brought out by these talkers. Shorter addresses were also made by lVIiss Dorothy Critz and Mr. T. C. Knowles. Best wishes to the athletic squads of next year were given by Charles Gould, foot- ball captaing Robert Bell, basketball captaing George Wachter, captain-elect of foot- ball, and Grace Higgins, girls' basketball captain. Dick lkloore, captain-elect for basketball next year, also gave a brief talk. The singing of Alma Mater concluded this most enjoyable evening. The supper was made possible by the efforts of Mr. Moser, Miss Critz, Pearl Bean, Dorothy Lewis, Emily Althouse, Marian Sylvester, Helen Eberle, Mary Kaier, Violet Zimmerman, Verna Yaisle, Grace Lechleitner, Margaret Deeney and Mary Reilly. ref' ,r , as ia .1 7'ii5.m,,,,K5f if Z is Q ii s 5 ,W .J-... . ak ,pta P if sa? al L, im fs ia W if am W fm af , eat? -r ' like 1 J' I 'Tx W-...1..,-.- FTTMTTWO 1 Tl Mmm.-H T so POTTSVI LLE HIGH Junior Prom VVithout doubt, the Junior Prom has been established as an annual affair. If there were any doubts in the minds of the students, they were dispelled immediately upon entering the Hollyroof with its atmosphere of gaiety, on the evening of April 20. The first definite impression was the receiving line, composed of llliss Florence Short, Nliss Ethel Sachs, Mrs. Frank lVIoser, Mrs. Franklin Hoke, Mrs. O. Carlin, Mrs. A. C. Silvius, Mr. Hoke and Mr. Moser. The music for this delightful hop was furnished by Allen Quirk's Keith Circuit Orchestra. Their program met with universal approval and contributed largely to the success of the dance. The hall, which had been recently remodeled, formed an attractive background for the dancers. As befitted a spring dance, the multi-colored dresses of the girls resembled so many butterflies. The Juniors are to be congratulated upon the success of the dance and upon the way it was conducted. The precedent was established by the Class of 1928 and was successfully carried on by the Class of 1929. VVe hope that future Junior classes may emulate their example. t . The Dear Departed The Grinning Skull made its oflicial debut late in April, when a one-act play, The Dear Departed, was presented. This play, by the eminent English playright, Stanley Houghton, was distinguished by its Wit and clever dialogue. The plot centers about Grandfather, recently deceased. His two daughters, with one of whom he had been making his home at the time of his sudden leave taking of this world, lose no time in acquiring for themselves certain possessions of the departed. They are aided in this by their husband. In the midst of the distribution, Victoria, the little daughter of the house, discovers Grandfather getting out of bed. Confusion reigns, and Grandfather demands the reason. Upon hearing of the most undevoted actions of his two daughters, he declares his intention of leaving everything to the person with whom he is making his home when the end really comes. At the climax he announces his engagement to a widow of the neighborhood. The Cast of the play included: Jane Daddow, Ruth Beck, Lois Shomo, John Niece, George Serfass and Carlton Sterner. :K ,..,.,Xx, W.: ,.f Tf' A , Mfrs. e , s A fe Q an 4t'i4ig3'. wi L5 M..- 141'-2:55 :w '+:T:l:gl 2 3:5654 get Sxiilj L, -' is , f N... -x .iii ggi? , 'Nix ,,,, gg , as 2.533 222 ar P me -JH W' www 7 V we wwf' Sw' swf, 'Vps fm Ei' 93 affirm? at as f X -M ::w:f:1..'

S. to present a comedy for the purpose of defraying commencement expenses, but not every play is as successful as Clarence, given by '28. Tickets sold rapidly for this super-production, and a large attendance greeted the performers on the evening of May ll. The dramatic ability of the cast had been well established, as most of the actors and actresses had previous experience in sketches and playlets. Clarence is a four-act comedy written by Booth Tarkington. The plot centers around a young soldier, Clarence, who has not distinguished himself in any way in the war. One of the five million, he served where he was sent, though it was no farther than Texas. As an etomologist, he found, on his side of the ocean, no field for his specialty in the great War, so, they set him to driving mules. Now, reduced to civil life and seeking a job, he finds a position in the home of a Wealthy man, Mr. Wheeler. And because he had been in the army, he becomes guide, philosopher and friend to the Wheeler family. Clarence's position is an anomalous one. He mends the plumbing, tunes the piano, types, and plays the violin. Around him revolve the members of the Wheeler family, together with a governess, a secretary, a maid and a servant. The audience appreciated the humorous situations in the play, and the cast was congratulated on its splendid presentation. The leading role, that of Clarence, was played by Paul Schlitzer. His dramatization of the young man with whom every one falls in love was most successful. Helen Eberle made an especially good Miss Pinney, the beautiful young governess, who causes many heart breaks, but finally chooses Clarence from her number of suitors. Sara Bast, as Cora VVheeler, Was an adorable little beauty. Sue's fine acting was largely responsible for the success of the play. Robert Herman capably filled the role of Bobby, aged sixteen. Bobby and Cora are typical brother and sister who enjoy squabbling. Katherine Grady delighted the audience with her characterization of Mrs. Wheeler, the step-mother of Cora and Bobby. Francis Smedley proved his ability as Mr. Wheeler, the father, who is more inter- ested in his business than in his family. Carl Rees filled the role of Hubert Stem very capably. Violet Tomaino, as Mr. VVheeler's secretary, kept the office scenes in a continual uproar. She had a clever part and played it well. Lester Koch supplied the role of Dinwiddie, the servant, with marked ability. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Charles Williams, who gave so much time and effort to the coaching of the cast. His untiring efforts as well as those of Francis Doyle who managed the production, were directly responsible for its success. W, fM,,.,frM-xg fwxfmf -eriifldly Ni., 5 ft' ji.eig...Qj?

To the faculty, '28 does bequeathe the collection of crickets, adhe- sive tape and various noise-makers, the rasping cough of Emily Alt- house, the epidemic of falling books, and other invaluable accessories which have made our stay a delight and diversion for them. May they recall tender memories. To the coaching staff, our sympathy for their recent bereavement, and our sincere hope that future stars may arise to brighten their nights. To the student body, a sense of the eternal fitness of things, as illustrated by our noble example. To Mr. Moser, our long-suffering principal, the hope that P. H. S. may now go forward. To this duly submitted and fondly created masterpiece of dedica- tion do we hereby, this first day of April, attach the signature of the class.
