The days we’ve spent, unlike the spark, live on Immortally in happy memories. We thank thee now, dear friend, for many joys, But even more we thank thee for the gems Of wisdom which we have gleaned within thy walls For preparation to become, not as Fair-weather sailors, but as mariners Of skill upon tempestuous billows of Life’s seas. Oh, may we never wander from The guidance which thou gavest us counsel Which in the years to come will prove thee as The dearest friend that we have ever known. Leonard Godsiialk, '34. The Garnet and White A A 3 (thanUs for tltr JtfricitMy fJusli Three rungs of the “Ladder of Success” we have climbed through your help, and your faith in us. The first of the three rungs was the Sophomore year; the second rung, the Junior year; and last of the three but not least, the Senior year. It is hard for a young child to learn to climb a ladder and some friendly hand must guide the young feet firmly to the first rung, from there to the second, and so on until the child learns the art of climbing the ladder and continues by himself. So it has been with us; we have learned to climb the Ladder of Success” and V. C. 11. S. has been the guiding hand. The art of climbing the Ladder of Success” we have found to be, first and foremost, work; and indeed you have taught us the meaning of work and how to work. That we must not give up if we fail in the first attempt, or even the third, but we must continue to try: we have learned from you. You have made these words live for us: ‘This is my work; my blessing, not my doom; Of all who live, I am the one by whom This work can best be done in the right way. —Henry Van Dyke. The second study of the art of climbing the Ladder” is the knowledge of the value of learning. Not only that we should learn when we are in school, but that we should expand our knowledge when we are far from its friendly walls. You have taught us the use of the newspaper and the magazine. You have helped us to acquire a knowledge of books so that we will know what books to choose when we wish adventure, romance or instructive literature. Third in our study you have taught us cooperation. For we do not climb the Ladder of Success” alone. There are others on their way. If we push someone else aside to rise higher ourselves, we shall probably be pushed aside so that others may rise. By helping one another we can reach the top more easily, and we will not be so likely to fall from the Ladder.” Even as the young child falters, moves a step down, or sways backward; so we also do. You have come to our aid, dear W. C. H. S., in those moments. You were always standing by, ready to aid us when we needed you. You helped us regain the step we lost; you helped us stay more securely on the Ladder.” Now if we falter we must remember these words: Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. —Conjuciiu. The Garnet and White “Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind. Collins WHO are the heroes of today and yesterday? Some people would say the greatest heroes are those who gave their lives for their country. 1 hen there are those who gave their lives for science. Who are the greater? Some people would say those who fought for their countries’ freedom and safety. These men were heroes, no doubt, but were they the greatest? No, men who fought and fight in wars are not heroes as I think of a hero. They fought against humanity, killed humans. In wars of the past men killed fellow-brethren against whom they had no grudge. Men who might have learned to respect each other. Men who might have been real heroes. The greatest heroes are those who save human lives men in the field of science. Today we have another type of hero. In this day of conferences, commissions, boards, and parleys, we have those who arbitrate—those who settle strikes between capital and labor. These men may be considered heroes in one sense of the word. They are saving human lives and human standards. Perhaps more important men are those who try to make peace between countries. These men are heroes. They prevent wars; thus many lives are saved. They promote better feelings between nations. They speak for a mass of people. I believe that there are few people of this younger generation who would want to experience the horrors of war that our forefathers have. Some people would say a person who would not fight for his country is a traitor. I lowever, I believe the man who goes to war is a traitor to humanity. Is humanity not more important than a nation’s freedom ? A nation has but a small percentage of the humanity of the world. This younger generation must settle disputes by peaceful means. Soldiers wear uniforms. Uniforms and colors appeal to the eye. hy not let those who settle disputes be decorated. 1 hey would receive more glory and honor when the people of the world realize that peace is supreme. So to the class which leaves this school in June, why not make Peace our aim in life, and “Love thy neighbor” our motto in life. In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility. Henri V. “Peace hath her victories, no less renowned than war.' .Hilton. Betty Garrett, '34.

No graduating class of the West Chester High School has ever sail! farewell to its Alma Mater. Classes have graduated and have completed their prescribed courses of study, but never has there been a class who (juit backing West Chester High in any of its projects. One often hears that “the townspeople are behind the school”. The “townspeople” who do most of the backing and boosting of West Chester I ligh and its projects are mostly alumni of the I ligh School, aren’t they? The Class of ’34, therefore, breaks the precedent of saying farewell and says, “So long. West Chester High School. So long is a slang expression but it puts across the idea that the Class of ’34 wishes everyone to have. Not many of us will lie visiting the classes after graduating. For many this would be impossible as work and study would not permit such visits. We know we are welcome and appreciate it. Although we are not ever in your midst, do not think we have forgotten you. Every member of the Class of 34 is proud to boast that his Alma Mater is West Chester High School. Furthermore he is proud to be able to cheer for the Garnet and White at athletic contests. Among the townspeople” whose loyal support to West Chester High have made possible many plays and other projects will be members of the Class of ’34. The feelings of a graduating class are inexpressible. Undergraduates often think they are exaggerated when written. They are not. It is the inability to ex- press them verbally that causes a writer to distort this feeling. The feeling is one of sadness. Leaving one’s studies does not cause sorrow, for studies are replaced by some other occupation. It is the idea of not being able to meet friends daily under one roof. The chatter before school, bumping against people in the halls, the gossip during noon hours, and associations during activities have become such a part of us that we get the “blues” when we realize that they are over as far as we of the Class of ’34 are concerned. Undying friendships have been made in West Chester High School. In the coming years these friendships will be tried and found true, proving we have gained one of the most important things in life. The Class of ’34 says “So long to West Chester High School wishing it many successful years in the future. Wilfred II. Miller, Jr., ’34 The Garnet and White a a a IT all began way back in the dim, dark days of 1931, when a large and promising class of youngsters entered the halls of our beloved W. C. 11. S., and took up the tools of learning which had lain dormant all summer. Not many days passed before the sophomore class asserted itself by elect- ing Walter Clark as its president, Don- ald Kent for vice-president, Mary Weir as secretary, and James Hippie as treas- urer. Now that that formality was out of the way, the class settled down to the task of making itself recognized for scholarship, as well as ability to enter- tain. The class party was a big event, with the college orchestra, led by Kow- ler, providing the music. The Garnet and White stall profited bv the assistance of many talented sophomores, including Marguerite Hage- mans, Judith Walter, Donald Kent, Emily Keech, William Krauser, and Vincent De Tullio, all of whom received experience which has stood them in good stead in these past three years. The cooperative council representa- tives, Beaumont Oat, Leslie Schramm, Horace Fry, and William Ingram did their part to make the importance of the sophomore class felt. This import- ance was added to by the fact that Elias Baker won second place, and Donald Kent, honorable mention, in the D. Webster Meredith speaking contest. Along about this time the writing of the sophomore essay took place, with the result that Emily Keech and William Krauser were the winners of the first award. And at the end of this first eventful year in senior high school, it was Emily Keech, Leslie Schramm, and Vincent De Tullio who received honor roll awards. (Tn till’ (Class of 1934 J uniors The junior year of this precocious class of '34 was, of course, more inter- esting than the sophomore year; as each step upward adds more glory and dig- nity to the class as a whole, as well as to individual members. The particular members who first received recognition were those chosen as officers of the class, namely; president, William Krauser, vice-president, Bettie Bobb; secretary, Doris Quinn, and treasurer, Elias Baker. The members of the junior class who were on the Garnet and White staff, Marguerite Hagemans, Wilfred Miller, Emily Keech, Elias Baker, William Krauser,and Vincent De Tullio did their part to add to the glory of their class. When the time for writing the junior essay rolled around, it was two members of this staff who were the winners: Marguerite 1 lagemans receiving first place, and Elias Baker, second. There were seven others who received honor- able mention; Betty Cohee, Donald Kent, Mary Weir, William Krauser, Ruth Jefferis, Leslie Schramm, and Ber- nard Schatz. That was a representation to be proud of! But it was the boys speaking contest which made us very proud, by a member of our class, Elias Baker, taking first place by the excellent rendition of his speech, and William Krauser receiving honorable mention for his ability. We were well represented in other activities, including cooperative council, football with Walter Clark as a promi- nent player, cheer leading, basketball, baseball, and the spelling contest, with Marguerite I lagemans as runner-up for winner. The juniors went out for dramatics in a big way, and Elias Baker and Charlotte 36 ▲ a The Garnet and White The Garnet and White a a a Paxson did well in the annual produc- tion, “The Royal Family.” Emily Keech, William Krauser and Elias Baker were important members in the cast of the operetta, “In Arcady.” Robert Mitchell won the dramatic club imper- sonation contest, with Charlotte Paxson second, for her guessing ability. At last, at the end of this second year, there were more honor roll pins distri- buted to deserving students, namely: Leslie Schramm, Betty Cohee, Vincent De Tullio, Emily Keech, Louise Strode, and Ruth Jefferis. Seniors And now we come to the most impor- that year of all; the climax to all of the previous activities, and the last chance to show what the class of ’34 is made of. It started off by organizing in the usual way, and electing Elias Baker for senior class president, Louise Strode as vice- president, Dorothy McGinn as secretary, and Vincent De Tullio as treasurer. The hall monitors, having had two weeks’ experience, were all set to do their part towards maintaining law and order within this time-honored building. They were succeeded by two different sets of monitors, who also added to the dignity of the West Chester High School halls. It might be added, that the senior steps were well patronized—and well pro- tected ! Alarguerite Hagemans, after several years of faithful work, received the office of editor-in-chief of the Garnet and White, with Louise Strode and Judith Walter as assistant editors. Mary Weir, Dorothy McGinn, Betty Cohee, William Ingram, Anna McNeal, Charles Burke, Emily Keech, Peggy Groff, Vincent De Tullio, William Krauser, Ruth Jefferis, and Helen Kirkpatrick complete the senior members of the staff. All went well until Burke test and senior essay came upon the scene, when all else was neglected, and we seniors “just had to take it!” The field of music found many en- thusiastic seniors, with chorus one of 37 the largest Mr. Hart has handled. And as for athletics—Walter Clark was cap- tain of the football team, with Charles Burke as manager; Tony Rubino, as captain of the track team, won the cup for cross country, and Donald Kent act- ed as manager; Violet Phillips was cap- tain of girls’ basketball; Laura Lessig, captain of hockey, with Betty Cohee as manager; and the cheer leaders played a big part in making the games successful. The cooperative council did its best to carry out suggestions and to improve conditions where necessary. Elias Baker served as president during the first semester, and presided over the inter- suburban meeting held here in the fall. Emily Keech held the office of vice- president. The president during the second semester, was Leslie Schramm, and vice-president, Ruth Jefferis. The senior tea was an important social event for our class, and was well attend- ed by parents, teachers, and students. Th D. Webster Meredith speaking contest as usual displayed a generous amount of talent; with the first award going to an able senior speaker, Donald Kent, and honorable mention, to William Krauser. The girls’ speaking contest had many senior entrants, but this time, no honors, although we are proud of the effort which our classmates put forth. The annual Dramatic Club play, Within the Law,” is something to cheer about; for Anna Mary McNeal, in the main role, displayed emotional and dramatic ability far beyond her years; as did also, Robert Mitchell, Charlotte Paxson, and William Krauser. Emily Keech, Leslie Schramm, Donald Kent, William Ingram and Willard Baldwin added their talent toward making this play extremely worth-while. Baby Day, always a gala event, was no less a one this year, and afforded amusement for the entire school. The Senior Essay was won by Elias Baker, and second prize went to Ruth Jefferis. Honorable mention went to Ellen Campbell, Leonard Godshalk, 38 a a a The Garnet and White The Garnet and White a a a Marguerite Hagemans, Emily Keech, William Krauser, Anna Mary McNeal, Violet Phillips, and Sylvia Weinberg. In the Dramatic Club impersonation contest Robert Mitchell again won first place. Honorable Mention was given Anna Mary McNeal and Bernard Schatz. Keech and Company (Baker and Kraus- er) won first place among the groups. Our honor speakers at Commence- ment were Elias Baker, Vincent I)e Tullio, Emily Keech, William Krauser, and Louise Strode. Honor roll awards were given to Vincent De Tullio, Emily Keech, Helen Kirkpatrick and Leslie Schramm. The crowning event of our whole social life at W. C. H. S. was the dinner- 39 dance on June 12. Everyone enjoyed the banquet, the music, and the decora- tions. The Class History, written by Ruth Jeflferis and Ellen Campbell, was read by Ruth Jeflferis. 1 he Class Pro- phecy, written by Marguerite Hage- mans.Charles Burke,and Ralston I loopes, was read by Charles Burke. A piano solo by Mary Weir and a vocal solo by Marguerite Hagemans furnished delight- ful music. After the presentations by Frank Kimper, everyone Joined in mak- ing the social hours of dancing which following the most memorable in our high school life. Ellen Campbell, '34. Ruth Jefferis, ’34. Class THE CLASS OF '34 (To the music of Dear Land of Home) Dear school, we leave our hearts within thy portals, Enthralled by many memories of days As happy as the ones of any mortals Who years ago were singing thy praise. Oh, may we never cast aside the learning Which we have striven for within thy walls, And may we find a constant Joy in turn- ing To friendships we have known in thy halls. Thy children we, our love and pride con- fessing. Now leave thee as we look for a new home; And may we strive to bring a richer blessing To crown thee now and through years to come. Leonard Godshalk, ’34. TO THEE, OUR ALMA MATER To thee, our Alma Mater, We give our heart-felt praise For all the happy hours Of Joyous high school days. Thy walls we’ll always cherish Where’er our duties call. Thy teachings still will guide us And keep us true to all. For years we have looked forward To freedom from routine. But now we view with sadness The liberty we win. May we prove worthy of it And show our loyalty To friends and those who led us In dear West Chester High. Ellen Campbell, '34. 40 ▲ A A The Garnet and White The Garnet and White a A A 41 Discing It ©ut I! Sing-Sing I lotel Shanghai, China May 4, 1948 Dear Ellen:- Well at last the promised letter! Really there is so much to tell you— I’m having a simply grand time over here. As you know I am secretary of the Televoco Co., of which Charley Burke is president and Abie Kahn is treasurer. Ralston Hoopes is personnel manager— he takes care of employees, stenogs in- cluded. And does he have his hands full!—especially since they are Jo Ban- non, Kay Madeira, Jill Roye, Cora Meredith, Reg Ralston, and Betty Bobb. Of course Tom Hall is sticking around— we finally had to give him a job as office boy. We surely do have a wide-awake office force! Oh yes, I forgot—Dick Conner is janitor. With this little or- ganization of ours we hope to be a great success. Our Televoco is a positive wow! Ken Pyle and Leonard Godshalk invent- ed it so you know it’s good. Our com- pany is soundly organized. People just naturally have faith in us with such prominent captains of industry as Walter E. Ryan, Stephen Styer, George Snyder, Frank Myers, Charles Messner, anti Charles E. Gibson as directors. So we are doing very well in business. Life in Shanghai is just as modern as life in West Chester or any other Ameri- can city. The whole town spends its evenings at the Chinese-American Club. One can always see such celebrities as the Misses Ginsburg, Grablow, and Benson, creators of the famous Bec-Ann- Kay Fashions. The American Consul, Albert A. McBride (“Micky” to you), his wife, the former Helen James Kirk- patrick of Darlington’s Corner, Pennsyl- vania, and his secretary, Ralph Brown, find this the town’s hottest night spot. I he club certainly does have a good or- chestra, floor show, and staff. The own- ers are Charles Hoffecker anti Raymond Smith, and Louise, Charles’s sister, is hostess. The staff itself, passing from in to out, consists of Florence Rodenboh and Ruth Hoopes, hat-check girls; Verna Daisey, Florence Thomas, Betty Garrett, Virginia Wagner, Hazel Kirk, Velma Phipps, anti Ruth McBride, the entertainers; Mary Taylor and Sally Maholland, cigarette girls; Tony Civit- ello, Vance Woodland, and George Thom- as, waiters; Tony Sicoli, Pee-Wee Kimp- er, and Utie Ogborn, bouncers; and Restore Smedley, doorman. The club is noted for its chorus—“the biggest chorus in the Orient.” Phyllis Bullard, Helen Dowlin, Mary Hallowell, Emma Holland, Phebe Mann, L9ora Dunford, Mabel Burnite, Alice Suter, Geraldine Schoffner, Mary Snyder, Mar- garet Cornog, and Mary Walton. Ralph Brown seems to prefer the little red- head, who is the one left over in the last row. The featured dancers, Sally and Mary Fulton, however, seem to be the favorite of Jake “Big Shot” Johnson and the Missus” (Laura Lessig in the old days) and his bodyguard, “Butch” Woolard and Scar-face” Stauffer. Four of our old classmates, Martie Dicken, Ann McNeal, Bea Peck, and Chotty Paxson, came out here several years ago to investigate and reform conditions. Needless to say, they’re still investigat- ing. These are all good, of course, but my favorites are the Night Hawks, Mac- Spann’s orchestra. George Edwards plays a mean sax; and, boy! is Paul Boyer keen on the traps! Their torch-singer is Frances “Fanny” Irons, and they have a smooth blues trio, “the Allswell Sisters” (our old friends, Christine Clark, Jane Cummins, and Roberta Mitchell). Practically everybody in town comes here. There is, however, one local light who is never seen at the Club. Sarge 42 a The Garnet and White The Garnet and White A A A 43 Clark (Jake’s silent partner) prefers a quiet life. He and Peg would much rather go to the movies than to the Club. Oh .yes, we have movies in Shang- hai—as modern as yours too. I can see such stars as the comedy team of Keech and Ingram (really Mr. and Mrs. In- gram you know) or Clem Barnes, the heavy lover himself, just as easily as you can. Of course though, I prefer to see the great Kramer. Doesn’t she remind you of Greta Garbo? I think it must be her accent—she sounds exactly as though she had spent her childhood in Milwauk- ee instead of in West Chester. Well darling, I simply must close now. Remember me to hubby. You certainly are lucky in being married to Flash Coldren, the Olympic track star. I only hope you're enjoying life as much as I. Do write soon, darling. Love and kisses, Marguerite. Came the yawn! Ho hum! Monday morning at work. What do we have to do? Well, let’s look at the funny papers. Lllen sent me some. — Hey gang! Gather round and hear the latest about the home folks! All about the big society wedding! “Miss Margaret Elizabeth Groff to become the bride of the Honor- able Donald Petersen Kent. Miss Groff is well-known in local circles for her art work. Mr. Kent, Chairman of the Penn- sylvania State Liquor Board, is a gradu- ate of Jale and a prominent member of the Racket Club.” And here we thought all the time that she’d marry Eddie Jefferis! The wedding, which will take place on June 2nd,—” Why that’s over now! “will be at the Church of the Holy Trinity, West Chester, at high noon.” I hat’s where you used to be in the choir, Charley. Jess Pearson is choir-master there now. Yes, and Tina Raschiatore is organist. “The Right Reverend Elias Bloxom Baker will officiate. The solist for the wedding will be Miss Mary Rebecca Weir, of the Metropolitan Opera Company, a personal friend of the bride. Mrs. Robert T. Mitchell (nee Dorothy M. McGinn of Rambling Man- or, West Chester Gardens) will be ma- tron of honor, and Miss C. Dorothy Grubb of Milltown Heights will be maid of honor. The other attendants of the bride will be the Misses Lillian Short, Betty Getty, Annie Bagshaw, Louise Strode, Polly Glackin, Judith Famous Walter, and Violet Alberta Phillips.” And is she a peach! The groom’s attendants will be Henry Elijah Baker, liest man, and Mr. Bernard Schatz, Mr. Alfred E. Murphy, Mr. Paul Bruno, Mr. Willard E. Baldwin, Mr. Robert Spazi- ani, Mr. Earl Stewart, and Mr. William Hetherington, ushers. Many events are planned in honor of the couple. A dinner will be given on May 28th, by Mr. and Mrs. Burgess Miller.” Good old Wilfred and Fontaine Baker! “Some of the dis- tinguished guests will be Mr. Leslie Schramm, the newly appointed Russian ambassador, and Mrs. Schramm, the former Ruth A. Jefferis; Mr. Russell Mosteller, famous divorce court judge; Mr. Antony Rubino, chief of West Chester police force, and Mr. WiLiam Krauser and Mr. Vincent DeTullio, editors of the Pacific Monthly.” Well, well, the old gang. Say, do you all re- member when— “STOP! LATEST PRESS FLASH! Important society wedding interrupted! Just as the prominent couple, Miss Margaret E. Groff and Mr. Donald P. Kent, were about to be united in holy matrimony, a voice from the rear of the church actually ‘spoke now’ and did not ‘forever hold his peace.’ A deep voice resembling the boom of a cannon in the calm of the happy scene raised the objection that Miss Groff could not marry Mr. Kent as she was promised as his bride and he intended to sue her for breach of promise. The man was Ken- neth S. Raezer of Westtown.”! ! ! Marguerite P. Hagemans, ’34. Charles W. Burke, ’34. E.

N. First and most important this month is: Bob McCowan wants to know who is sending Anna Mary McNeal anonymous letters. Please help Bob to find out. At the top of each Wisecracker has been a little box which has said each month, “Watch this Space.” We’ve watched it all year, and now we wonder why. Well Bud Baker has finally gotten rid of that “Prize Pig” he’s been stuck with for so long. All year we have wondered why Jill Roye has looked out of the window while on monitor duty the eighth period. Now we know. Krauser is looking out of another window at the same time. Did you notice that there was a change in the cut above the editorial section between January and April? Who took tulips to Russell Mosteller every Sunday morning all Spring? I suppose you all know of “Kingie” and “Queenie.” If not, ask Tom Hall or Betty Bobb since they know more about it than the rest of us. Mary Field, we would have thought that you would have been more sober in your statements about Longwood Gardens and that you would have been able to appreciate them far more. Why did Media laugh? Marinofsky (last time we use Marinofsky, too long, Eddie to you) was Jumping at 5'8” against one contestant. Zim walked up, looked at one leap, and said, “All right, Marinofsky, you may take your pants off now.” Another lime Eddie asked Chalk for a stamper to hammer down the earth in front of the jumping pit. Well, you may not believe it, but Chalk came out with a big sledge hammer. In the future Litvin’s nickname is to be Litmus to all except when Weiss is around. Then it will be Blue, an acid reaction. Please call Whitworth, Lilacs. I le knows why. Prominent President of the Class of ’35, Harold Jarrett, wants to know why girls spend so much time manicuring their finger nails. Says that worthy, “I never look at their finger nails anyway.” Well now we sign off for a summer, but some one will be back in a flash with a flash. We wish all seniors the greatest degree of success in the world and sadly watch them sadly leaves our halls forever more.

At the Havcrlord track meet this statement was issued by Judge Han- sclman. “The boys in this school all walk around with their chests stuck out far like this. But they're all just a big bunch of sissies. They can't even take a third place.” I his statement coming from its respected source is highly valued by us as we consider him an expert on sissies anti pansies. (P. S. Don’t all gt and jump on Mr. Hanselman at the same time. He probably wouldn't be able to take it.) WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF Eleanor were boiled instead of “Fri” ctl? Kay were a rock instead of a Stone? Peg were cooked instead of “Ral” ston? Ruth were a Lillev” instead of a Me Bride?” Bettie were “Tom” instead of a “Bob” b? Mary were a tailor instead of a Taylor?

Have you any suggestions for im- provements in our school? 2. Have you any suggestions for mak- ing the work of Cooperative Coun- cil more effective? 3. What type of chapel program do you like the best? One hundred and thirty of these were filled in, with some very good sugges- tions which will be discussed by next year’s council. The students of senior and junior high have been asked to stay off the bridge at noon, and they are complying with this request very well. Someone suggested that, as the lunch- es are still being stolen from the girls’ basement, the cabinet in which they are kept should be moved near Mrs. Con- t-— CHAPEL The musical program which had been scheduled for April 20 was not given in the absence of the performer. On April 27 the Boys’ Hi-Y presented a most interesting program. It is probable that the success of “Little Nell’’ and “Steam- boat Bill” added to the number of votes polled in favor of the boys’ party. May 4 found all our Seniors laying aside their hard-won dignity to revel in the delights of Baby Day. “Eddie’’ Orenstein won one of the expensive prizes with his appropriate costume. Chapel was not held on May 11. The J unior and Senior classes practiced their songs on May 18 E COUNCIL ard’s cage so that she can watch them. Various minor improvements were suggested and will be taken care of. There was a long discussion on the advisability of changing council members each semester. No definite action was taken on this subject. Corrections to last month’s Council notes: 1. Last month’s council notes inti- mated that there had been a general complaint from the student body re- garding variety and quality of food served in the lunch room. We wish to correct this statement, as the comp!: iat was about only one or two articles served. 2. During the past year this coopera- tive council has done very satisfactory work. Several improvements have been made, and several difficult problems have been settled. The council has certainly proved itself worthy of its high position in the school. 3. We hope the student body will continue to give the council its support. Anna B iinton, ’35, Sec. — 1« NOTES under Mr. Hart’s direction. The Seniors owe the words of their song to Leonard Godshalk, and the Juniors owe the music to Charles Henderson and the words to Walter Kerwin. The first half of the Senior Program on May 25 was made up of musical selections. Following this the Class Will was read by the President, Elias Baker. The ceremony of trans- ferring the senior steps to the juniors then took place—making a fitting fare- well to the Class of 1934 and a welcome to the Class of 1935.

The officers were elected i;.i the fall. Then followed tryouts in preparation for the annual play. After a period of intensive practicing had been completed, Within the Taw, undoubtedly the greatest success ever produced at High School, was presented February 23 and 24. An innovation to the Sock and Buskin activities was the presentation on March 23 of three one-act plays produced in the form of a contest by the three high school classes. The sophomores gave the win- ning play. The Ghost Story. The juniors produced The Florist Shop, and the sen- iors presented Two Crooks and a I.ady. Our later meetings were taken up with individual and group impersonations. Prizes were given for the best individual performance and the outstanding group production. A picnic on June 6, the second annual picnic, brought to a close for the year the many and varied activities of the Dramatic Club. Mary R. Weir, '34, Sec. DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN As the German Club has about one more meeting, it will be fitting to review the work we have done in our class every Tuesday. The purpose of the club, as it was stated in the first of these articles, was to acquaint the student with German pronunciation, to extend his vocabulary, and to introduce him to a new field of culture and knowledge. The purpose has been carried out as fully as possible in the short time we have been studying German. In order to translate from German into English we must read orally. This helps us a great deal with our pronunciation. Our vocabulary is naturally extended by the German words and phrases. If the student has persisted in his work, he has gained something. No one has lost anything in the study of German. All in all we have accomplished what we started out to do, and have enjoyed ourselves immensely. Auf wiedersehen! Stella J. Lagges, '55 The Gxrmt and White A A A 69 WEST CHESTER HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA 1933 1934 BOOK EXHIBIT From May I till May 12 there were on display in the library many antiques and odds and ends which came from the pre-Civil War era. Stools, which were used as long ago as the 1820's, from the Birmingham Octa- gonal School and the master’s desk from the Diamond Rock Octagonal School were the center of interest. Several old microscopes and a dupli- cate of one made by an early Chester County botanist were shown. This sample was a small piece of steel with a small hole upon which one drop of glass had been melted. One could see quite well with it, although it was difficult to accustom the eye to so small a hole. Many old textbooks, mostly histories and geographies, were shown; and it was interesting to note that most of them came from the period of the 1840’s. The evolution of penmanship invoked much interest several old army com- missions and legal documents being the samples. The student body evidenced much interest, and we noticed that a number of townspeople also were interested. The high school wishes to thank all those who cooperated to make this fine exhibi- tion. Franklin Newman, ’35. SENIOR HIGH CHORUS Eearly in the fall the election of the officers of Chorus took place. Very soon we began working on the music for the annual Christmas program—this year, an afternoon program. Roberta Mitchell and Charles Burke were the soloists. The Chorus gave up its plans for an operetta in order to assist in the produc- tion of the dramatic pageant. Now and Then, which commemorated the one hundredth anniversary of the establish- ment of public schools in Pennsylvania. The Chorus brought its year to a close with its participation in the Commence- ment exercises on Thursday, June the fourteenth. Mary R. Weir, ’34. t—v—•a LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club has had a very successful year. Attendance at the meet- ings has been good. Several interesting programs have been given by the members. At one of our meetings we made booklets on con- temporary authors. A film, How Books are Made,” was shown and en- joyed by all. We ended our year by taking a picnic supper to Sharpies Lake. Betty Getty, ’34, Sec. 70 AAA The Garnet and White IN 1834 Jtfmu mill (Tljcn In commemoration of one hundred years of free public school education in Pennsylvania there was presented here in the West Chester High School on May 11th and 12th a dramatic pageant, produced by the pupils and the teachers of the West Chester School District. A diary, cleverly used, connects two distinct plots. Dorothy Ames (Emily Keech) shows great interest in education and is affected greatly by Professor Harrison’s speech, read by her father, Mr. Ames, played bv Lester Quiller. She is puzzled as to what to do with her life; whether to devote it to education or to marry. For inspiration she reads her Aunt Bess’s diary. The scene then shifts to 1834 as we see portrayed what passes in Miss Ames’s imaginaton as she reads the diary. John Emory (William Krauser) tried to per- suade Bess Ames (Ruth Clayton) not to visit her cousin in the country. Bess, however, went to vikit her cousin, Emily Saylor (Charlotte Paxson). While there, Bess visited the new country school and took part in a delightful old quilting party. Bess fell in love with Doctor Will Evans (Bud Baker) and sacrificed her excellent chances for a life of luxury to become the wife of a Country doctor and to lead a useful life. The action then shifts back to 1933, and we find Edgar Rawlings (Walter Roehrs) proposing to Dorothy Ames in a fast, clever scene. She refuses him for the time being at least, but the audience can decide as it likes what she will do eventually. Both Emily Keech and Walter Roehrs are to be commended for their fine acting in the final scene of the play. Safford Dutton, playing Tommy Ames, cleverly added a touch of humor to the first scene. William Krauser was superb in his one scene, where he pled with Bess Ames, sweetly portrayed by Ruth Clayton, to stay in the city. Leonard Godshalk is also to be commended for his skillfull portrayal of the stern school-master. The schoolroom scene was most inter- esting from an historical standpoint. In this scene Jack Hoopes, Dorothy Jack- son, Billy Johnson and Marion Reesey must be mentioned for their addition of the touch of childhood. Willard Bald- win, Walter Kerwin, Marvin Weiss, and Fillmore Wood were good examples of refractory pupils, just as Kathryn Brit- tingham, and Mary Louise Kerwin made fine examples of good pupils. Blanche Singer, Donald Prutzman, Jack Reges- ter, Elinor Zimmerman, and Doris Lilley were the other characters in this scene who found special favor with the audience. While Anna Mary McNeal and Elea- nor Jackson, two gossips, kept us laugh- ing during the quilting scene, a group of The Garnet and White a a A 71 NOW AND THEN farmers danced the old square dances. To conclude the pageant, some of the additions to the school curriculum since early days were shown to the audience: home economics, industrial arts, music instruction, and physical education. Then Miss Ames gave a comprehensive talk on the development of education. and the pageant ended with the singing of “Hail, Pennsylvania.” The high school wishes to express its thanks to Mr. Francis Brinton and other contributors for the old furniture, cos- tumes, and properties, which provided an educational exhibit for the audience as well as a setting for the play. Franklin Newman, '35. SENIOR-JUNIOR LATIN CLUB Under the guidance of Miss Edith Jackson the S. P. Q. R. Latin Club has had a successful year. At the first meet- ing Bill Ingram and Morton Weiss were elected consuls Betty Jackson was elected later in place of Morton. In our October meeting we listened to a heated debate between Walter Kerwin and George Thomas. I he club decided that the Papian Law should be repealed. A senior play, Pyramus and I hisbe, fol- lowed. In November the seniors showed the relation of the story of Orpheus to poetry, music, and art. At Christmas time an appropriate play was given en- titled Io Salurnabia. In January we braved Cerberus to study Roman his- tory, and we heart! the voices of famous Romans. Bill Ingram, George Thomas, and Betty Jackson won prizes in a contest held in our February meeting. Each contestant wrote in Latin about some pictures; the liest were read. In March the club gave George Thomas a farewell party. In April Miss Jackson took us to Mantua, the birthplace of Virgil. At our last meeting for this year the Juniors gave the seniors an oral try- out. The seniors participated in a con- test, and each one received a prize. Next year we plan to have a definite theme for entertainments throughout the year. Betty Jackson, ’35. Bill Ingram, '34. The Garnet and White A A 73 DOTS AND DASHES What is all this talk that has been going around about Dots and Dashes lately? You know, it is the new section of the Garnet and White written by the commercial students. They say it started with a bang and has caused not a little favorable comment ever since. After reading some of the stories anti poems, one wonders whether some prom- ising authors and possible poets will be lost in the sound of typing keys next year. Since so much talent has been shown at the beginning, it would seem almost a catastrophe to smother it in books of figures. But what is all this lamenting about being lost when there is a whole new class to step into our shoes next year? Who knows but what someone will flourish a gifted pen and arouse fresh interest with a poem or story? Come on, Juniors! Step up! Bring your wit and talent to keep the com- mercials to the fore! Betti e Bobb, '34. t •—▼ HISTORY CLUB The History club this year held a series of very interesting meetings. The topic with which the club dealt was The United States and its Probems. The following reports proved to be quite educational: The N.R.A. and its Lead- ers ; Our Relations with Russia”; Latin America and the Pan-American Congress”; Cuba”; Social Planning”; Welfare Work”; Housing”; Bio- graphies of prominent people of today leaders in Congress, Justice Brandeis, Frances Perkins, Carrie Chapman Catt, and Lawrence Tibbett”; The Schools in West Chester”; Education in Chester County”; The Struggle to establish Free Schools in Pennsylvania”; and A Century of Education in Pennsylvania.” The club also enjoyed some interest- ing reels of movies on Panama and South America. The valuable information which the club members gained from these meet- ings is proof of the club's success. Anna McNeal, '34, Sec. COMMERCIAL CLUB The class of 1934 attended their last business meeting of Commercial Club on May 16. We have had a very success- ful year. There are fifty members, and a very large majority of these have at- tended every meeting. We have had business men from around town speak to us at some of the meetings and give us a clearer idea of how their business operates. The representatives of our school who took state examinations at Blooms- burg told us of their experiences. Al- though they did not win prizes their efforts to bring honor to their school are appreciated. The final meeting of our club was the picnic which was held at Lenape Park, June 6.

As individuals and as a class, our successful record is one which we wish to continue. The Sara C. Evans Girls’ Speaking Contest was won by Dorothy Hool. Charles Henderson won Second Prize in the D. Webster Meredith Speaking Contest. Dorothy DeHaven achieved the honor of winning the Spelling Con- test. Our class had representatives in both the play and the pageant. The or- chestra, the band, the chorus, coopera- tive council, and the various clubs have all had their share of 1935 members. We proved our social worth by the suc- cess of our Junior Tea to which many interested parents came (also a few boys!'). We have not been unnoticed on the football, basketball, or hockey fields; and the result of Play Day found the winning team headed by a Junior. Such a record as this is of great value. It brings to us the realization that, as we have achieved, so we must and will achieve still more. Mary Frances Weeks, '35. 76 MEMORIES Why is it not permissible to write our names in our school books? True, they are not ours; but is it a destruction of school property, to write at fancy s urge one’s name in a book. There is a saying that fool’s names like their faces always appear in public places. But is it foolish to write one’s name where a succeeding class may see and say, Why, I knew him,” and feel a warming mem- ory touch the heart. A few days ago I read on the flyleaf of a book a name, graduated now five years at least, and felt a delightful warming feeling touch me. 1 added mine, hoping that someone would read someday and say, Why, I knew him.” It seems too bad that these remembrances should be written with secret fear of future ends. I urge this custom to be made lawful and everyone to leave his something-to-remember-him -by. Franklin Newman, ’35. i-—▼—4 THE CLOCK Few students do not watch the clock. They are the ones who will never get old. Now to us students the clock turns too slowly. When we are older, the clock will turn too fast. The clock is watched mostly during the eighth period, and if we learned to stop watching the clock that period we would get out of the habit. It is not only watched by the students, but is watched by many workers. Any employer of men will tell you that that kind of workers is undesirable. A teach- er having an eighth period class will often remark in class, Don’t pack your trunk. The bell doesn’t ring for ten more minutes.” This often makes the teacher lose his interest in this class; then the class does not absorb as much knowledge as it might have. To avoid this we should all try to stop watching the clock. Emanuel Cohen, ’35 a a a The Garnet and White BRICKS MORTAR-THE WALL Class of 1935, how many bricks will you put into the wall? Each graduating class leaves its bricks of achievements in the steadily-mounting wall of honor. These bricks are important, but still more important is the mortar. By put- ting forth the best that’s in you, the bricks will be made. It will take, how- ever, determination and patience to mortar in your work so that it will last. If we are to present as our addition to the wall strong, well-built rows, the dullest of daily work must be faithfully performed. Slack moments, when mono- tonous routine is abandoned for more alluring activities, will only serve to weaken the mortar and ruin the wall. Yes, strive for high goals! These make the bricks. Yet, when you return to the commonplace, remember that firm mortar makes a strong wall. Mary Frances Weeks, '35. 8--▼---4 JUNIOR CLASS SONG ALL HAIL TO ’35 All hail to nineteen thirty five; to thee we homage pay; With loving hearts we pledge our faith, each in his loyal way. Chorus 1 lail to the colors of strength and might; Carry them on through the victories of life; May they inspire us in years to come— blue and white. Your virtues, nineteen thirty five, we love to hear and sing; On life’s long journey guide our steps, and courage to us bring. Thy spirit dear to every heart, inspires us day by day; Throughout the years, oh, let us hold, those memories stored away. Words by Walter Kerwin. Music by Charles Henderson.

There’s a junior girl a-settin’ anti I know she thinks o’me; For the wind is in the maples, an’ the high school bells they cry, “Come you back, you senior boy friend; come you back to Senior High! Come you back to Senior High, Oh you know the reason why: Can’t you ’ear the voices laughing in the halls of Senior High?” In the rooms of Senior High, Where all the students sigh, When the month of June makes one realize exams are mighty nigh. Betty Jackson, '35. r-— FROM THE CLASS OF 1934 A toast we give to ’35, A worthy, noble class. We hope that when they all arrive At Burke that they will pass. We hope with all our wiser hearts That they will be quite sure Of self and will have fewer qualms Than we with which to cure Their ills because of “this” and that” Because of French and math. We hope that youngsters will not rouse Too easily their wrath. We hope with all our heart and soul The class of '35 Will always set a gleaming goal And win when e’er they strive.

In the three one-act plays given by the senior, junior, and sopho- more classes, we came out first in our production of Booth Tarkington’s The Ghost Story. We had many members in the pageant A ow and Then, which was a success in every way. Although we, the Class of '36, were represented in the Dramatic Club play by only one member, Richard Moore, we hope to have quite a number more next year. The Sarah C. Evans and the D. Web- ster Meredith Speaking Contests claim- ed several of our members, who did ex- ceptionally well. This being our first year as members of the Senior High School, it was neces- sary for us to become accustomed to new methods. In our junior and senior years we can and shall accomplish bigger and better things. Come on, ’36! Let’s make ours the best class ever! Lucille I. Kates, '36. r-— SUCCESS How time rolls on! True enough is the old proverb, “Time and tide wait for no man.” For ten long months we have toiled faithfully with determina- tion to win, with a desire to excel, and an ambition to succeed. We wished to master every difficulty—be it large or small, important or unimportant. When we became discouraged and were tempt- ed to give up the fight, our determina- tion, desire, ambitions, and wish came to our rescue and inspired us with new courage. The school measures our success or failure by our marks, but the world by our ability to take our place in the ranks of its toilers. We are like the members of an orchestra who have been tuning up” for the symphony of life.

We Sophomores are looking forward to it with all eagerness. Just think, we can exert our influence and authority over the sophomores. We can walk in front of them in the lunch line with perfect serenity, and can even use the senior steps (when the seniors aren't looking).

I T---4 FAREWELL TO ALMA MATER “Footprints on the sands of time” were the immortal words of the poet, Longfellow. These are not random words; they have a very definite signifi- cance. Especially at this time when the seniors are bidding farewell to Alma Mater, do these lines loom largest. Yet, a great page has been turned in the book of life. This is not an ending; it is a beginning! For many it means continuing in the field of knowledge, striving towards a certain goal. Still others will plunge into the business world, immediately applying their know- ledge. However, no matter whether it be education or work, they will enter into that new game with earnestness, hon- esty, and a real zest and energy! It has often been said that high school days are the happiest. All of you, I am sure, will heartily approve of this state- ment. Those days were also the most profitable, for it was there that you left the trade mark which will influence your entire life. So when you have all achieved fame, fortune, and happiness in the walks of life, think—oh, just once in a while of that “Little Red School House” back in the home town. Here is wishing all of our departing friends great success! Alyce Goldberg, ’36.

It is during this time that we must have patience and learn the fundamentals and technique of the sports for our senior high school days. Three-thirty of almost any fall afternoon finds us on the volleyball court. A volleyball tournament declared Virginia McFarland’s team the champs. Sometimes, if we are especially fortunate, we get a chance to use the hockey field once or twice a week. These days are taken advantage of by about for.y girls of all ages and abilities who are anxious to learn to maniputale a hockey stick. Because we have so little use of the field, a hockey tournament is imposs ble. During the winter season we play indoor sports. This past winter basketball seemed to be especially popular with over one hundred girls taking part. At all times much spirit and enthusiasm prevailed. Anne Powell's ninth grade team won the championship over twelve other teams who had entered the tournament. Baseball and tennis are the favorite sports of the spring. A tournament is also held in each of these sports. M iss Strickland is very well pleased with the showing which we have made this year. She hopes that next year every girl in the junior high school will take an active part in at least one sport. So we, the ninth graders, challenge those of you who will remain in the junior high to do your best in making the coming junior high sports season a big success! Alick Strcde, IX.

This year’s council elected Anne Powell, vice president; Marion Cowell, secretary, and Donald Prutzman, sergeant-at-arms. William Aspinall, the president, was nominated by a committee and elected by the student body. Miss Farra had been elected Council Faculty Advisor, but she thought another teacher should have the position as she had it last year. The council then elected Mr. Myer. The other advisors were Miss Peirce and Mr. Henderson. Under the direction of council members a ninth grade dance was planned; but as the students didn’t seem very enthusiastic, we didn’t have it. The seventh and eighth grades planned a party for May 4, and it was well attended and very much enjoyed. Several important questions discussed during the year were: ninth grade pins; Junior High pennants; use of the library; and contributions to the Newsboy and the Garnet and White. We all hope that the council will continue every year and keep the thought of cooperation within the Junior High. Jean Whitworth, IX. JUNIOR HIGH CLUB REVUE The Junior High School has had a number of interesting clubs which have sponsored a large number of activities this year. Some of the clubs specialized in handicraft and construction work; while others had lectures, films, book studies, and a number of visits to places of interest. Our clubs included the following, the names of which suggest the nature of the club activities: Art, Handicraft, travel by Camera, Plectrum, Dancing, Com- mercial, Book, Dramatic, Harmonica, Aircraft, Science, Junior Mechanics, Agirculture, and Minstrel clubs. A variety of interests is met by the numerous clubs of the Junior High School. Everyone should be able to find a club to his liking. A good motto would be—“A club for everyone and everyone for a club.” Katherine Weaver, VIII. HONOR ROLL The following pupils have been on the honor roll for all of the first five report periods: Grade VII—Betty Cox, Hilda Gill, Ellen Head, Virginia Wynn, Donald Prutzman, Ruth Saylor, Doris Woodward.

JUNIOR HIGH IN THE GARNET AND WHITE Many thanks to the pupils who were so loyal as to help make our part of the Garnet and White a success.

We’ve enjoyed the busy hours; 1 lappy were those years of ours Which we spent in Junior High, As three years rolled swiftly by. As we mounted ladders high, And the days passed quickly by, We always tried our very best To reach the goal of our success. So we bid farewell to you. With your colors, steel and blue.

The Garnet and White A A 89 DADDY LONG LEGS” LOOKING BACK We, the ninth graders, upon looking back on our last year in the junior high find it to have been one of keen enjoy- ment, pleasure, and learning. Whether we have been successful in living up to others’ expectations, we do not know; but to you, the future ninth graders, we leave our place to be filled again by you who will probably “show us up” many times by your good work. When you come to the end of your ninth year, will you, too, wonder why you did not do more, why you did not go out for more activities, and why you did not get better marks, as many of us do now? Do these things before it becomes too late. Help while you can to make your ninth grade year interesting and worth- while. When you reach the end of your junior high days, it will make you feel as if you had done your best in helping to make it a success. Alice Strode, IX. t—'T—4 ASSEMBLY NOTES To pick out the most outstanding as- sembly program would be almost an impossibility, but the following pro- grams stand out very vividly: a talk by Happy Goldsmith on October 18 and a snappy entertainment by the Minstrel Club on October 25. Carol singing dur- ing the month of December was repre- sentative of our Christmas spirit. Since music is the spice of life” the Senior Band brought it to us on February 7. In memory of George Washington, a historic film, “Yorktown,” was presented on February 21. On February 28 Miss King gave a piano recital which was greatly appreciated by everyone. The annual coming of the Cheyney Singers on March 7 was a program to which we looked forward and which we remember- ed long after it was presented. “The Ghost Story,” a sophomore play, was given on March 21. This caused much discussion. On March 28 the pupils gave part of the Parent Teacher’s Association program which was later presented to our parents. On April 11 we discovered that we had a number of very good speakers who participated in the Girls' Speaking Contest. Mrs. Del Marian Lawrence came to us on April 18 with slides on “Commander Byrd.” Several Pep meetings were held in order to get us acquainted with the members of the basketball and the football teams. 1 he talented music students of our school gave two entertaining recitals on April 25 and May 2. We wish to express our appreciation to the pupils and the teachers for their participation in these programs, and for assuming charge of assembly programs, Bible readings, announcements, and decorations.

This in itself is a big job. After the typing, the articles are separated and classified. Then the paper is ready to go to press (our mimeograph machine is useful for this.) After the pages are assembled in order, we have our Newsboy.” Speaking for the members of our staff, I wish to express our appreciation for the honor and privilege of having a share in the publication of our Junior High paper. Blanche Singer, VIII. th—▼-st HOME ECONOMICS The girls in Home Economics classes in junior high school follow a well- rounded program divided into units. The first year we plan, prepare and serve a school girl’s breakfast; launder cotton, linen, and woolen clothing; study child care; and have several lessons on home nursing. The second semester of that year we make stuffed animal toys and start our wardrobe by making a slip. When we enter eighth grade, we are taught to darn our stockings and to re- pair other articles of clothing. The art of dressmaking then begins and with the study of fabrics, color, and design, we complete a dress, the second garment of our wardrobe. The second semester we plan, prepare and serve luncheon suitable for school girls. Sections 8-1, 8-2, and 8-3 each prepar- ed and served a luncheon to the girls of its pwn group, with the homeroom teacher as guest of honor. Section 8-4 entertained our assembly speaker. Dr. Cameron Beck, with Mrs. Joseph Scat- tergood as hostess. We launder silk garments, learn to use safe dry cleaners, and study the important phases of personal hygiene. In the ninth grade our work becomes more complicated as we plan and pre- pare foods for dinner. We make a more careful study of marketing and spending the family income. During the second semester we study more thoroughly about patterns. Then we make another article for our wardrobe—slacks, shorts, or pajamas. Our classes are very interesting. The information we learn is helpful every day. Many of us wish to continue I lome Economics in the senior high school. Winifred Fling, VIII. Anna Miller, IX, The Garnet and White A A A 91 SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADE PARTY After wending our way through a downpour of rain on May 4, we entered the gymnasium which was gayly decor- ated with the colors of steel and blue. We were sure of having a good time. A part of the evening was devoted to entertainment. This consisted of several selections “The Boulevard of Broken Dreams” and “Viva La France” sung by a girls’ chorus; a solo by Dora Pearl- man and a duet by Willis Rowe and John Hershey. A play The Lighthouse Tragedy was then presented. Later Patsy Di Stefano played two harmonica solos, and Mary Carson gave a clever tap dance. After the period of enter- tainment, the frolicers danced to the VARIOUS CONTESTS April 11th There were twenty-nine girls in the preliminaries for the Girls’ Speaking Contest.

And always aim for things on high, Strive for right and onward go, Try to conquer every foe. Mary Louise Kerwin, VIII. 92 a The Garnet and White OUR LAST WILL and TESTAMENT We, the outgoing ninth graders, being sound in mind and body, do hereby bequeath to the future ninth graders the following: “Evey” Cheyney’s interest in boys to anyone who wants it. The popularity of Ann Powell to her sister Marion. Homework to the lost and found de- partment. Second period science class to the 8-1 section. The singing ability of Joe Webb to anyone who likes to sing. The high Jumping ability of Barbara Lewis to the one who has the longest legs in the eighth grade. The right to go down first in the lunch room to everyone. The right to write farewell poems at the end of the year to the chosen few. The right to choose courses to those who want them. The acting ability of “Bill” Lusher to the sheik of the eighth grade. The big bass voice of Fred Morgan to the big bad wolf. The athletic ability of Alice Strode to Mary Louise Kerwin. The role of leading lady to Mildred Darlington. The editorship of Marjor Speer to the one who wants the responsibility. A A HOME ROOM For the past year our Home Room meetings have been very successful. The three main aims which we try to follow are: to bring about a feeling ol unity in our school, to develop a sense of con- sciousness and pride, to develop good citizenship by having participation in worthwhile activities. Our I Iome Room meetings have been made interesting and useful because the pupils have taken an active part in the programs. The meetings are held to give an opportunity to discuss different prob- lems that arise in our Home Rooms as a group. The most important problems which cannot be solved in the rooms are taken to the council by our council representatives. The Home Room has officers and also special committees such as flowers, bul- letin board, and scholarship; these special committees try to improve the room in appearance, and aim to keep matters running smoothly. It is said that to be chosen a council representative is one of the greatest honors in Junior I ligh, but to be a worth- while home room member is, in my esti- mation, just as great an honor. Our school is just what every home room member makes it, because a chain is no stronger than its weakest link. Mildred Darlington, VIII. SO SEVENTH GRADE FAREWELL Vacation days are near at hand, With all the things they bring; Soon we’ll have to say, “Good bye,” To school and books and everything; So Seventh Grade, farewell! Some are sad; still others are gay; To see all the things they know so well. So swiftly and quietly pass away. We have learned the things we should, So Seventh Grade, farewell! We are coming back next fall, To make the next year better still; And shall we look forward all the summer? That we surely will. So Seventh Grade, farewell! Hilda Gill, VII.

To see our school publication steadily improving is very gratifying. In contemplating my message to you I have been considering the values of I ligh School education. As my apprecia- tion of this training is increasing in the light of a few years’ perspective, I desire to impart to you now a keener conception of its worth by assuring you that in its lessons are enduring substances. There are elements which tend to con- ceal the gold in your opportunity at hand, but it will be revealed later. When you come out of the chrysalis of routine and compulsory study for new stages of development, you will discover that with a diploma many intangible assets are yours. Among them will be a real fascination in learning and enjoyment in work. Intellectual curiosity will be another possession. Though some subjects stud- ied may not aid you in a practical way, they will have been invaluable in in- creasing your mental compass. You will have the basis of the essential qualities of initiative, self-reliance and the ability to cooperate. Application of mind will be easier. You will have learned to place a value on time. Your view on life will have become more balanced; that is, you will be better able to grasp what is of major importance and what is subsidiary. Your appreciation of music, art and literature will have grown. In general, you will have been learning to live abundantly. To teach this is the foremost purpose of education today, for in its gradual transition it is more truly seeking to let knowledge serve the students instead of suppressing the vibrant tendencies of youth in order to satisfy traditional standards. I hope that these thoughts may cause you to realize more clearly some of the possibilities which are before you and encourage you to press on in confidence to their fulfillment. Sincerely yours, Dorothy N. Conrad, '24. 94 a a a The Garnet and White GARNET AND WHITE STAFF, 1933-34 tE’lEituDi NINE long and happy months have passed and with them, for many of us, our association with the Garnet and White. It is a sad parting, this; for no magazine can be produced without the deepest interest, cooperation, and support by members of a worthy staff, by fellow-student contributors and work- ers, and by loyal advertisers and subscribers. Without the cooperation of any one of these groups the Garnet and White could not have eked out an existence. This year saw several new features appear in our magazine. “Dots and Dashes’’ gave real representation to commercial students. The “Wise Cracker”, our news- paper section, was successfully continued from last year and gave a great deal of enjoyment, especially to student readers. The Who’s Who” page of photographs gave everyone a quick, and timely key to current school events. The “Lookin’ ’Em Over” column was continued as well as the old familiar Gloria Goinsome. All the regular departments were carried on through the steady effort and expen- diture of talent of many of the students. We are especially grateful to the advertisers for their support; for, in these troubled times, their kindness and loyal support is doubly valuable. We wish to express our sincere thanks to all who have aided us in any way. May the oncoming staff have the loyal support that we have had and the greatest possible success in the Garnet and White, our magazine, their magazine, and your magazine. The Editor.
