We owe this development to those who have guided and influenced our ambitions and ideals. Rapidly, however, we are approaching positions in life where our own intelligence must guide us and our own perseverance strengthen us. Perhaps now, more than ever, the highest qualities of civilization are being testedg for, during recent years, scientific and industrial progress has been so rapid that, instead of simplifying our existence, it has brought with it great trials of our courage and intelligence. Whether we can suc- ceed in these conditions depends upon the development of our intellect, self-reliance, and social interest. History presents to us many instances of ruined civilizations. The peoples of these eras were only able to meet life problems of a certain complexity. When they exceeded this mental limit, the development of several centuries crumbled to ruins. Our present civilization has already surpassed many of those in the past. Will we be able to continue to advance or will we, too, destroy the foundations and development of our era? How we answer this question depends entirely on our eagerness to keep pace mentally with the ever-changing material conditions. In more cases than one, war has caused the downfall of a civilization. War is the almost inevitable result when the development of material, and physical things grows greater than the moral strength of those who control them. We create as long as we possess money and powerg but, as soon as money and power possess us, we destroy. It is our duty, then, to ever increase our vision and adapt our education to the conditions which we must meetg so that, through our influence, the present civilization' shall not fall but lead on to one much higher than any yet known. 17 Names iane Austin ucy Bartholomew Donald Blakeslee Ernest Bauer John Birkland Regina Browne Kevin Cahill Agnes Carlson Orville Carpenter Martha Chaddock Charlotte Charles Esther Christ Eloise Clor Marian Cole Alice Cornell Margaret Corwin Ellsworth Eck Helen Fisher Kenneth Flint Edith Fullington Philip Gath Donald Grover Cecelia Gallett Fred Hamilton Howard Hawley Nancy Hayden Richard Herman Charles Hotchkiss Barbara Hoyt Merrill Humphrey Donald Jones Elma Jones Ruth Jordan Lucille Krotz Raymond Miller Eleanora Mack Dorothy Meissel Robert Miller Loretta Nugent Edward O'Brien Charles Pllaum Louise Pforter Doris Redding Ralph Robinson Mi dred Rosenthal Louis Petherick Benjamin Saggese Dorothy Siebert Alvin Smith Florence Smith Lawrence Smith Ruth Smith Arlie Stowe Harry Sweetheimer Lawrence Van Order Casey Walczak Esther Walsh Glenn Webster jane White Leslie Wilcox Esther Wilklow Mildred Wolcott Regina Wright SIZING UP THE SENIORS Favofite Ha'ngfOut In the gym Between yar and thar Around Cornell Basement Them dark and dusty library shelves Perry's Sunoco Gas Station Yarrington's A mile or two from home Cemetery shack Miss Chase's Haas' Manor Home on the farm Home cutting those curtains In a black roadster The east side of N.

This record- breaking class has done everything in a big way and handled itself with much dignity from the beginning of school in September. Since the main event of the year was, of course, the Junior Prom, our class began early to prepare. Using their super-salesmanship, the Juniors sold more candy in a shorter time than any other organization in school has done for quite a while. After much preparation, the beautiful decorations were ready and on the night of December 10, we were whirled into fairyland. The circus effect of the decorations and the marvelous band of Hal Anderson were instrumental in doing this. It was a success to everyone concerned.

S ecretary-Treasurer The Warsaw High School Teachers Association was organized in 1928. The object of the association is to promote friendship among the various members of the faculty. Forwarding that, the association includes a series of social activities in its yearly program. In the fall an informal steak roast was held at the Village Park. It afforded the new teachers an opportunity to become acquainted with the older members. In February the Association held a very successful party at the Masonic Temple. We are looking forward to the June banquet to which the members of the Board and wives and husbands of faculty members are invited. 24 IN MEMORIAM Somethmg beautz ul ts vamshed And we sigh for lt Ln vam R Stoddard MR EDWARD NORTON Member of the Board of Education ROBERT MONTGOMERY Class of 1940 Dear Eleanor Just wanted you to know dear frlend We mlss you here on earth We have not forgotten when Your smlles of mlrth Accompamed by a Hush of rose Greeted us all allke And how embarrassed you stumbled through An answer to some earthly questlons Flred at you from cold unfeelmg hearts So they seemed but were not They mlss you too Your stay was short among us Yet each man no matter how long or short hrs stay Leaves behlnd at least one glft Whlch helps us on our way And whrch keeps hlm l1v1ng here After he has gone To reglons Falrer Brrghter More understandlng You left behrnd your smrle Wlll you not need It where you are Or may we keep lt To remember you tlll the last of us IS gone For the tlme w1ll be short And the last He could brmg rt to you soon Your Classmates of '37 gg ELEANoRBAKER .......

The Blast, being very short of members, started the school year with an organization meeting to elect new members to the stali. We decided to have the number of mem- bers divided equally between the three classes, so that we would lose only one-third of the stall each year. Nancy Hayden was elected Editor-in-Chief by the eight remain- ing members and the Blast was on its way. Initiation was a rollicking affair, and the future of the Blast looked promising. During the year the Blast sponsored several enterprises, most of which were very successful. Miss Jones proved herself the best of sports and a most able sponsor. The climax of the Blast year was the annual Stunt Night and all classes and clubs joined in the fun with clever programs. 28 BAND AND ORCHESTRA This year the band played at several home football games and later a smaller group played at basketball games. Mr. Magee has carried on with his good work and due to him the band and orchestra had a full schedule. The first concert was in December. In February the band and orchestra organized into the Warsaw High School Band and Orchestra Association. The ollicers are: ' B. CONABLE ..... ........ P resident F. HAMILTON . . . ....

Besides this, we have played at several outside activities, among them the Kiwanis Club. In addition, we look forward to the Spring Concert. 29 ORCHESTRA THE PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The Oatka Photo Club was started this year by Mr. O,Dell. At the first meeting, an election of officers took place. The officers are: President, Alfred Perkinsg Vice- President, Charles Pllaumg Secretary, Moira Cahillg Treasurer, Wilbur Martin. The object of the Club is to take pictures, learn how to develop them, and learn how to take better ones. A meeting is held every two weeks on Tuesday evening at seven thirty. The Club now has about twenty live members. Our entertainment committee sends to Eastman Kodak Co. for lectures and slides, which are given at the meetings. A very enjoyable trip was taken by the members to Kodak Park in Rochester on March 30. This trip cleared some questions in our minds about the making of films. All students with cameras are invited to join. 30 GLEE CLUBS The Girls' Glee Club under the leadership of Miss Ross made great progress this year. They meet two mornings a week for forty-five minutes each, and practice voice exercises, tone and diction. They have had two public appearancesg the first at Kiwanis Club, and the second, in chapel. A recent surprise was a Boys, Glee Club organized by Mr. Magee. The addition of boys' voices to the regular glee club has been a happy thought. 3l Front row, left to right: Carpenter, Allen, Chase, Gayton, Walsh, Voshurg VanVa.lkenburg, Wilyat, Tozier Second row: Woodley, Killeen, Clor, Chaddock, Brown, Cesell, Miss Coleman Third row: Jackson, Carlson, Bartholomew LIBRARY CLUB ELOISE CLOR ..... ......................... ......

Our social events consisted of a Hallowe'en Party, a Christmas Party, and a Chinese Party. The Library Club with the Blast sponsored a Stunt Night, which proved enter- taining and profitable. Each member of the club is asked to work in the library a certain day of the week during a free period. In this way, besides helping Miss Coleman, we gain much valuable knowledge about library work. 32 Front row, left lo right: Robinson, Miss Sander, Simard, Austen, Cahill, Rosenthal, Callett, Fisher Secogihrow: Firman, Humphrey, Birkland, Conable, Pflaum, Hawley, Humphrey, Woodley, Head, ite FRENCH CLUB This year the French Club decided to be exclusive, and it took quite a few weeks for the chosen members and their sponsors to meet and organize. The organization meeting was held in Miss Sander's room, and Kevin Cahill was elected our president. Next, Jane Austen was chosen our secretary and Yvonne Simard, vice-president. Three meetings have been held at intervals of every other week. All the members have learned how to converse easily in their chosen language, and much fun has been had in the meetings at each otheris houses. 33 Seated: Cahill, Nugent, Callett Standing: Fisher, Pflaum, Redding, Miller, Wolcott, Humphrey, Smith, Flint, Hoyt 46Let's Get Together One dreary night, November 18, in the year one thousand, nine hundred and thirty eight, the Seniors of old Warsaw High presented their annual play to a capacity crowd. It proved to be the best in years. lt was a high-pitched comedy, concerning an everyday, American family. The old-fashioned papa tried to run his twentieth century children with a rather worn- out hand. Granny, who had kept up-to-date with the times, thwarted him at every move. Two spoiled children of the neighborhood only served to make the family more dissatisfied. An accident finally made them all realize the error of their way and everything ended happily. The Seniors, at this time, wish to thank all those who helped to make their play such a huge success. 34 Front row, left to right: Martin, Skill.

The club joined the Genesee Council of Hi-Y clubs and attended the meeting at Letchworth Park. The constitution was revised and club reorganized under Mr. Cham- berlin, district leader. Meetings were held in Geneseo, Perry and Warsaw. Dick McGee, with the aid of the Kiwanis Club, was sent to the Albany convention. New members, Case, Topping, Cillen, Conger. and Skill were taken during the year with much paddling and Hspeechifyiiigfi New officers were chosen in March: President, Conableg Vice-President, Eckg Sec- retary and Treasurer, Topping, Corresponding Secretary, Cillen.

TAYLOR ............................................................ Treasurer The theme for the year correlating our activities was Educating for Citizenship and variations of this theme served as the bases for the lectures and discussion groups. The Xmas program, presented by the High School students, was one of the highlights of the season, and our sincere appreciation and gratitude are offered to faculty members and- students who made such a program possible. In commemoration of Founders' Day, in February the P.T.A. members participated in a most informal gathering at the Community House for a tureen supper and entertainment. The Gym exhibition in April was a most interesting demonstration, which was marked par- ticularly by the fact that through the efforts of the P.T.A., motion pictures were taken of the performance. At all of our meetings, music was furnished by various musical groups from the High School under the capable direction of Mr. Magee. The Warsaw P.T.A. is proud to announce that its project for the year has been the establishment of a dental clinic to take care of children in the lower grades and to finance the follow-up work in conjunction with several other groups. We have also started a revolving loan fund for glasses available to High School boys and girls which is working out most successfully. ALUMNI NEWS Quite a few of our alumni have remained with us this year. About twelve of them have returned to take a Post Graduate course. We are all glad to have them with us for one more year. Of the class of '36 and '37 about fourteen have gone to complete their education in higher seats of learning. A few of them are very near here but most of them are scattered around the country. Some also, have gone into training at Warsaw Hospital. ESTHER CARPENTER ...................................... MARY JANE WOODLEY .... .. WILLIAM LOWDEN HOBART HONDORF LEO McGEE .......... ....

As for victories, the season can hardly be counted as a successg but it was very suc- cessful in that it afforded much pleasure and experience to all who participated. The only major injury of the season was that of Dick McGee, who received a broken leg. 38 Mr. Struehing J. Skill, Herman, P.

Despite the non-successful season, there was a record sale of season tickets and the student support was unusually fine. We climaxed the year by the vic- tory over Perry in an overtime period.

Lowden, Landcastle, Miller, Cahill BASEBALL Due to the fine spirit of the entire squad, Warsaw had for the first time in fifteen years, a championship baseball team. This same spirit can not be credited to the students, howeverg for with all the en- joyable weather and victories of the team, baseball sadly lacked the support which it really deserved. Many Seniors started the games throughout the season, mainly, Bill Lowden with his brilliant pitching, Roddy Miller who caught every game, Leo McGee as shortstop, and Orvie Carpenter at third base. The gaps left by these men will be hard to fill during the coming season. Following is the schedule for the season: NON-LEAGUE GAMES Warsaw 13 Silver Springs Warsaw 11 Wyoming .... -. . . . .

This one sport has been exchanged for a variety of new interests and the association has been the means of getting more girls sport minded. The charter members of this organization are those girls of Warsaw High who have previously won a letter for basketball. The high spot of our year was a trip to Batavia for the purpose of participating in a play day. There we met with girls of other schools in our county, and through the participation in games with them, gained many new friends and en- joyed a day of good fellowship and fun. 4l Left to right: 0'Brien, Smith, Humphrey, Martin, Mr. Rogers The tennis season of 1937, while not yery successful, showed good spirit and sports manship on the part of the players.

By May 7, at the Hrst meet at Alfred, Doc Shear had a well rounded team. The highlight was the relay team, who finished one half second behind Bradford's team. May eleven, Warsaw was host to Perry's victorious team. May fifteen at Wellsville, competing with fifteen teams. Warsaw took third place. The relay team won the championship relay cup. May eighteenth Attica visited us and was routed 53 to 40. At the county meet, we were winners. Hondorf broke the county record for the 100 yard dash in 102 seconds. The season ended with the team possessing two championship cups. To Doc Shear and Mr. Boldt, the team feels indebted for their able coaching brought us to victory. 43 f f T X Y l I y SPRING Spring is the time when all is gay. When the birds and bees along the way, Make our hearts all warm and bright, And sing and hum to our delight. But this year spring came with snow, and cold, The first in years, so I've been told. It snows all day, it snows all night, It isn't a pity, it is a fright. It's a fright because we start all wrong, For when we start it should be with song. But with days like these it's kind,a tough To start a day with happy stuif. But if it were warm the whole day through, -I know the gag, it isn't new- We'd all be out and skipping school, To visit the country or swimming pool. But after all we sh0uldn't shirk, For now's the time to do our work 'Cause we can't go out and run around So pack your minds good and sound. For Regents comes but twice a year, So do your best till Spring is here! -William Topping Listen my students and you will hear About some teachers we' have this year. The first and foremost on this list Is no one else but our good old 'tChris. She's one of the best you will agree, We couldn't get along without Miss Zeh. Then comes Miss J ones who sponsors our Blast, And of course you know she teaches our English class Then there is Bess, the good old dear, What would school be like if she were not here? Last but not least is our good old professor He couldn't be wiser but he could be lesser! S -Arlie Stowe 46 DON'T WANNA Don't wanna go ta school- Like ta be outside. Wanna stay by the old swimmin' pool- Or take a bicycle ride. Wanna walk through the woods- Wanna run through the lots, Wanna stay in a tent- And sleep on a cot. Wanna get my feet wet- Wanna be bad! But I gotta stay in school, And it makes me mad! -Jean McC affery EARLY SPRING THAW A noticeable rise in temperature was commented on by a number of residents of Warsaw on March 30. We suggest that some of you readers request Dick Herman find out if it was coincident with the time of his embarrassing interlude He might even explain if you coaxed him. Don't take any alibis from Twerp, however 1-11- ORAL SPEECHES A look of anguish, a cry of pain, As seventh period rolls 'round again. The die is cast, the teacher sits, But, lo, behold the pupil's fits. Each face is white, each finger locked, Teacher called on Benny and the school-hou He has improved all his 'whatnots' The leopard has changed his spots. Next to arise was tall Sir Pflaum, At this surprise, every face was glum se rocked His oration finished, Mr. Carpenter shivered, Then before the class he up and delivered A speech? Oration? Or was it a pun? We were having recitations just in fun! 47 TWELVE YEARS IN THE PEN I was a small lad six years of age when I was picked up by the truant oliicer and sentenced from twelve to twenty years in the Warsaw prison. I was plenty nervous when I first gazed upon the cold bricks of the Pen. I was stuck in a cell with about thirty other inmates. They introduced me to my guard, who by her appearance, I knew I would greatly fear. I spent a whole year in this cell, and then they shipped me on to another. One morning as I was walking toward my cell, I got my first look at our warden. I heard the tramp of feet behind me. I turned around and there he stood looking at me over the top of his horned rimmed glasses. His glance was one of cold scrutiny, and I knew I must avoid all temptations to break jail. The first eight years passed on, and I found myself face to face with the vice- warden, a stately woman by the name of Bishop. She must have liked me, because she kept me under her supervision for an extra half year. Another year passed and I was listening to the voice of Guard Zeh. I stayed with her for two years, and I am completing my third. She is still endeavoring to guide me in the path of economic security. I will mention one more of the thundering herdi' before I stop. She is one of the Jones girls and the hardest tyrant of the lot. No longer could a prisoner even snatch a nap with her about. I am now completing my twelfth year in the Pen. Will I get out? I don't know, ask Jones. Donald Grover STUDY Study-study! You hear all day. When you come home from school your parents say, Bill, did you bring home your books tonight?', If I say No there's a great big fight. Some people say life is a bowl of cherries. If there were no school, life would be the berries. Nothingto do but eat, sleep, and drink,,' Never have to bother to ever think. First it's History, next it's Chem. What do the teachers think I am. The teachers ask questions, and still questions more. If you do not respond, you stay 'till four. So here I sit, so dumb and forlorn, With the teachers giving me looks of scorn. I wished right now I hadn't been so funny, I would have been graduated and be making money. -William Ritzel 4 8 NWKMQ? W!!

Of that teacher named J ones, with the light, brown hair She knows her English, her jokes, and quips, But she's also handy with detention slips. -Ralph Robinson Miss Zeh is our History teacher. She certainly knows her stuff, She doesn't mind the dumb-bells, But she really hates a bluff. Miss Miller has a study hall, She makes it lots of fun, Especially when a shoe floats down, And dangles in the sun. Boldt has fourth period study hall, He doesn't think much of it. He claims the Seniors younger grow, They cut up-j ust to prove it. Miss Sims has typing in our school. She has Sir Apple every day, He plagues her morning, noon, and night, She teaches typing anyway. -Mildred Wolcott BLAST AT ITS WORST Every year before the month of May, There comes that frightful day, When the teacher then does ask, Please write something for the Blast. We then rack our brainsf ? ?j And she accepts with disdain, The hardest work we have ever done, But the genius who for fun, Has composed a better poem than we, Receives all the praise, you see! -Lester Nimsker There. is a car which doesn't have lights, And every night itis at Uprights, It has no top, and it has no gear, But wait a second until you hear, Although it's a wreck and it's kind'a muddy, What do we care, it belongs to Buddy. 50 MPARDON THE MISPRINTSN Mildred Rosenthal-Oriental Hugs-Open Evenings-Brooklyn Street, Warsaw, New York.
