'F L si .nllllllll W lllllltglm HE Tribute of the Cubs. in nl x Outside the den the mother tiger watches, waits. She stands guard, a willing sentinel, and, in time of need, an aggressive protector. Slumber never sits upon those keen, searching eyes, as their alert glance penetrates the heavy blackness ol night. Outside her den a lone guard watches and waits. She has proven herself to be both a willing sentinel and an aggressive protector. Her clear omniscient eyes are focused upon the darkness which is the future. She can see enough to sense danger, warn her cubs and prepare them to meet it. Not once has she failed in this, her chosen duty, thus kindling their atlectionand commanding their esteem. Even as the cubs are trained for life in their wild domain, so we have been somewhat prepared for life in our world. Example has played a large part in this period. The cub learns from the example of her mother, We have learned from the example of the one who has been our selected guide. h As impatient and eager as the jungle-young, we have Followed the sure footsteps of our leader, thrilling at the beauties and miracles she has shown us. Qur admiration and respect for her have increased as the secrets of our jungle have been revealed by this one who has had an eye to see things and a heart to understand them. Now, as a Final tribute, we dedicate this Avalon Annual to our comrade of the trail, Miss Mildred S. Kerr. t Xl V lllllfwbxf f . 3 x Ti' . ' 4 HE Harbinger's Notes ss w The jungle! A thousand mysteries! A million beautiesl Through this jungle wild things stalk and slink, searching, making paths, thus we penetrate our Jungle of Knowledge. Someone must go ahead to break the trail. The tiger, alert for dangers and well-trained, goes first, laying a path which all can follow. As skilfully as these jungle dwellers, our teachers explore the vastness of learning. Toughened elephants, croaking crocodiles, screeching parrots, chattering monkeys-all travel along the way. The upper classmen go first, fortified somewhat for the new life by the experiences of their high school days. The younger seekers, loquacious and zealous, follow. All are eager, for the road from Darkness to Enlightenment is enchanting. There are diversions as surprising as the wonders of the jungle which appear unexpectedly to delight one. Even in work there is the joy of achievement, as poignant as that which the jungle-born know when they have triumphed over some hazard of their native life. Comparable to the mighty lions are the warriors whom we send forth to Fight on the field of sport. With craft that equals that of any jungle-trained beast they wage their friendly wars. Our actors portray their parts as dramatically as the panther which moves spectacularly within his domain. As busy and as active as the antelope are our activity leaders. Now all of these pass in review, and we who are looking back recall the events which are recorded in this, the Avalon Annual. al.. . .1 .J d1 .

Ahead lies opportunity! And with a step so sure, so Firm, so straight We strike out on the trail, we do not wait As through the dark of jungle night There bursts a Flood of blazing light, So through these windows of our youth There beams a clark-clispelling truth, Illuminating all our way, Making from the night, the day.

The golden moment, which will always be remembered by those who attended, was the Grand March. The march was led by William Auth, Grace l-lunt, Robert McBride, the Junior president, and Christine Munro. Next, came the two school principals, Mr. Rerley and Mr. Evans, escorting their wives. The Senior and Sophomore Rresidents, John Walmsley and l-larry feiclc, followed with their fair friends, Catherine Mimna and Elvina l-lelbling. The Ben Avon and Bellevue Junior Presidents, Jacl4 Cahoon and Robert Leonard, came next, as guests. The faculty and students followed this leading goup through the stately steps of the march.

The tropical setting had also necessitated the making ol some nevv scenery. The Glee Club had it made by a student from the University ol Pittsburgh, and, when the operetta had been presented, gladly contributed it to the school's stock ol scenery. A special group of club members prepared and sang several musical selections as part ol the program presented on December Q3 in honor ol Avalon's alumni. The remainder ol the year vvas spent in rehearsing songs as a group, The club vvas unable to purchase any new music due to the lack ol funds, but learning the old songs proved as enjoyable to the singers as learning nevv ones would have. Although they did not have the incentive to vvork vvhich the operetta had provided, the Glee Club members derived a great deal ol pleasure from their chorus work. Altogether the club enjoyed one ol the busiest and most successlul years vvhich has been recorded in Avalon's activity annals. 68 iii ill 1 ,1 X l iifisglmitilgii 1 A v A L o N A N N u A L l lllw linl lll' ti' , ' c . ... 4 i 1 i Q , V I ,ii T7 l First Pow: T.

Many of the seasoned players had been graduated. These empty places had to be Filled by in- experienced, though no less enthusiastic, musicians, lt was also lound that some oi the newcomers were just learning to play their instruments, and had joined the orchestra lor the practice and experience it would alziord. Their spirit and courage is to be admired For these same beginners will be the time-tried players of the luture orchestras of Avalon. Each Monday night the organization met For its weeldy practice. These rehearsals were not lacking in lun and good times, although a great deal was accomplished. lt was not unusual to see a violent violinist chasing a teasing trombonist about the auditorium, threatening him with his beloved instrument. l'lowever, these escapades only came as a short reliei from the gruelling work oi practice. The orchestra played for all the various entertainments held in the auditorium, and the reception oi its music was a just reward lor the hours spent in r.ehearsal 69 wifi- GiCl'iZSti'd AVALCDN ANNUAL Latin Club ffiflnfiiiniey f,l'i,',?2few'iZlf2 'i ia '5 The Latin Club, with its truly Latin title, S. P. Q. R., or Senatus populus Que Pomanus, undertook great things this year. This enthusiastic club enjoyed a deserved success. The big project of the year was to make the Latin room look really Roman. Club members also Worked on crafts, making helmets and togas. Scrapbooks were put together, proving a source of entertainment as well as of instruction. lnteresting discussions were carried on r in reference to Roman food. It has been questioned vvhy ' this subject should be of such interest, but the hungry , looks on the faces of Latin Club members bespoke qkejx powerfully descriptive orators. Who but a true orator I lfxi could send the whole club avvay looking so starved? lgsix ln fact, Roman food was so well-liked a subject that a if X, Xt Roman banquet was held.

The most interesting programs were those when club members hopped into automobiles or onto a street car and rode away to some plant. These trips were always well attended, for the places selected by the trip com- mittee were always ones oi interest. The First trip was to the Wolverine Toy Company where :Sandy Andy toys are made. It was rumored that some of the would-be scientists were seen playing with jointed dolls. Next, the club visited the Davison Coal and Coke Company. Senior chemistry classes were astounded by the voluminous lcnowledge oi blast Furnaces which Science Club members had acquired from thistrip. ihelastjourney was madeto the James Matthews Company, where rubber stamps and similar articles are manufactured, True to iorm, the visitors came away laden with souvenirs oi their sojourn to the plant, The other programs were talcen up with reports on late inventions and scientific discoveries and with motion pictures. 71 an Edmund Beal William Auth Wayne Knight Frank Bromilow E.

The club has accomplished a great deal, although it has been done irmauspiciously. The girls put on three assembly programs, presenting a play each time. The First, 'ilhe Borrowed Luncheonn, vvas received very Well by the students. it was also presented to the Sevvicldey student body when Avalon and Sevvicldey exchanged assembly programs. Needless to say, the play was given as good a reception there as at Avalon. The second play, The Unexpectedness oi Catherine l-lenryn, had a larger cast, thus giving a greater number ot girls the opportunity to display their stage ability. This program enjoyed the same success as the First. The last play which was given vvas entitled Hlhe Girls ol Glen Willow , and the presentation oi it ieit nothing to be desired. The bi-vveeldy programs were a source ot interest and pleasure to the club members. A study of the art oi malce-up and of the mechanism of the play proved absorbing as well as instructive. As enjoyable as ever vvas Miss Cardenis reading, which constituted the program For one ot the best meetings ol the year. Miss Svvitfs tallc to the girls vvas equally entertaining. 73 Curtain Club AVA L C N A N N Ll A L 57 f'7ilT3 . ' 3 y .

The chief aim ofthe group is to display leadership at all times on the gym floor and to help the other girls in learning new games and exercises. Qne of the big projects of the year was to learn to referee. Night meetings, at which they played baslcetball, offered the opportunity to practice refereeing. By acting as referees at games played between Junior l-ligh teams, the girls acquired some actual experience. The club was invited to a play-day at Mt. Lebanon, and accepted very gladly. The girls attended a baslcetball game at Ambridge upon invitation. The school-wide fame of the Gym Hops has done two things. The l-lops have won the enthusiastic support of the school, and they have brought in some cash for the club treasury. Everyone always welcomed an announce- ment of a Gym l'lop joyously. Other club functions were just as interesting. A play-day, a demonstration, and a banquet for the girls who received letters in hoclcey, baslcetball, and baseball, offered plenty of variety as entertainment. A farewell party, given in honor of the departing senior members of the organization, was successful as the last social gathering. The club set a swift pace for any competitors in being -the most active school organization. '74 CUB GROUPS Q55 'E TL V Blix A 6 AVALQN ANNUAL 4 Student Council Dramatic Club Reserves M. Hunter H.

Tom and Jeff, of course, make short work of becoming ac- quainted with the king's daughters, Pearl and Petal. Learning of the grave situation surrounding the king, they figure out a plan by which l-lopalong is to be substituted for the king. With his razor for a weapon, he is to slash his way to safety. l-lopalong over- hears them, and none too confident of his own ability nor his razor's durability he determines to disappear. This he does-hiding in the sacred oracle. When Coco calls on the idol for a last decree l-lopalong issues forth commands which completely alter things. Coco confesses his plot, Tom and Jeff are amply rewarded by the king with the hands of his lovely daughters, and l-lopalong finds his reward in the arms of Mammy Lu. l as Chief Characters ELBERT STOUP And LOIS WANDLESS AVA L o N A N N u A L W- t . 1' 3 I -t -I ,pl 'A It ' al 1' gg mi' X-' 1 X 'llll lliill A 4 l - .

The former concerned three freshies, who were serving as pledges prior to being made members of the Wanta Pie Fraternity. As pledges it was their sordid duty to perform such menial tasks as shining shoes and pressing suits for the senior members. The football stars of the school had been warming the bench of late. It became known that the three freshies were related to some teachers, Immediately, the stars and upper classmen who found themselves in various predicaments sought the friendship of the three. The leading parts were taken by Arthur Thunell, Edgar Reed, Clarence Eckert, Upton Deurell, William Cronenweth, and William Carmichael. The Wild Rose tells the story of a debutante who has grown tired of her life as a social butterfly. I-Iaving achieved a certain amount of success in societyfs theatrical circles, she finds herself desirous of obtaining the leading role in a play, written by a playwright, Lady Grey. The latter considers the girl's social back- ground inadeouate because of its frivolity. Retiring to a country estate, Pose, the debutante, tries to live down her disappointment. She outwits an uninvited group of city friends. She becomes ac- quainted with the nice old country lady next door, who turns out to be Lady Grey. The playwright gives Rose the desired part, bringing about a happy ending. The part of Rose McCloud was played by Mary Jane Cowl, and that of Lady Grey, by Anne Wheeler.

GIRLS INTRAMURAL MUSHBALL The three Senior High classes are practicing with pep and zeal to get in trim for the mushball games. Each team will play three games with each class. The juniors and seniors seem to have the strongest outfits, and these contests will probably decide the athletic supremacy between the two classes. Actual results cannot be recorded, as the season has not yet been completed The mushball games will end the girls sport program. As the girls have met only Ben Avon in basketball this year, Miss Craig put intramural athletics into effect on a fairly large scale. The success of this move was evidenced by the enthusiasm of the girls and the whole school's interest. More atheltically-minded girls have been able to participate in these contests, which is one of the best arguments lor intramural sports. An award is to be given to the girl who has played more quarters or more actual time in hockey, basketball, and mushball than any other participant. Interest is at the boiling point as to who will ea rn this award.
