We, the class of 1937, cannot leave B. H. S. until we have justly thanked our sponsor, Mrs. Cummins, and our new superintendent, Mr. McCormick, for their patience and humor in guiding our class. Last, but not least, we Wish to express our gratitude to Miss Lloyd for her splendid work in making this book possible. - THE EDITORS. 'Ll fi .N . Y ' 5 if LVDQ 'gif fill. b 91,79 xl L , Dedication To Mrs. Beulah Miller Cummins, our Spon- sor, whose noble character fulfills the ideals of Beaver High School, whose generosity and sympathy touches many hearts, we, the Class of 1937, affectionately dedicate this volume of the SHINGAS. i . l'l'Li.,N 'KL ., -J Ky wi-X xx ir A New Captain Long after the rules, formulas, vocabularies, and other devices used in the acquisition of general knowledge have been forgotten or laid aside, there will remain one indelible quality by which society will judge you as a member, namely, civic conduct. Civic conduct of an individual is determined by attitudes, interests, and ideals as well as by general information. Seniors, how will you score in civic conduct? From my observation I predict a high rating l You have conducted your- selves in a manner that exemplifies high ideals, a constructive attitude towards your school, and a vital interest in your personal advancement. These qualities have molded the Class of 1937 into a group that has achieved outstanding success in high school and has set a high standard of scholastic achievement and civic conduct. Keep your civic conduct rating high and success will undoubtedly crown your efforts. My acquaintance, although brief, has been most pleasant, and I wish the Class of 1937 success beyond your fondest expectation. G. A.

University of Pittsburgh . 1,4',.: if The Pilot It has been said that the people of America are becoming more and more convinced that a really good education is simply and profoundly education for living -1 education that will teach people how to live fully, intelligently, abun- dantly and wisely, that will cultivate those native human powers which we all possess: that will more and more make the individual a master of these powers: and will make him a truly adjusted and livable person. It is our wish and confident expectation that the Class of 1937, which has done so well in high school experiences, may achieve even more successfully in the personal careers of its members so that each individual may become a truly adjusted and livable person.

AWAY With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, She has wandered into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since she lingers there. Y i l 'f H Think of her still as the same, I say z She is not dead -- she is just away l - IAMES WHITCOMB RILEY DOROTHY IEAN TRuscHEL died on April 29, 1935. This poem was written as a dedication to Miss Edith Lindquist, a faculty member, who passed away December 6, 1936. A TRIBUTE TO A MEMORY In school you were loved by everyone, And your young life had just begun, We're so terribly sorry to see you go But it must have been God's will we know. We shall miss you and your pleasant smile But we'll be thinking of you all the while. We'll miss you when we look into your room, But it will be as sacred as a tomb. We'll ne'er forget you, that we know, just as you were from head to toe. We know your leaving us was best, Though you taught us with zeal and zest. The day has come and sad it is, There is no taking that amiss. You won your place in our hearts forever, In sunshine and in stormy weather: When we number the loved ones on our list We'll always include Miss Edith Lindquist. - GENEVIEVE ERWIN, '38.

I, II, III, IV: Basketball I. II: Vocational Club: Hi-Y: Dramatic Club: Newspaper Staff I, II, III: Band I, II. This is jones . His ability to handle school affairs wisely won him the title of President II, III, and IV, His leadership has been well followed and he takes his place among the truly efficient presidents of Beaver High. Among his varied accom- plishments ranlt his careful automobile handling, the voice of another Crosby, a dab of theatrical life, and a bad case of Rochester girls. Seriously, though, Glenn is a good guy, nice to know and bound to succeed. Good luck, Jones, with life's problems. FRANCES ANN McKEE Glee Club I: Tri-Hi-Y I, II: G. A. A. I, II, III, IV: Class Sec- retary III, IV: French Club IV. Wanted: A few boys for the other girls when Fran is around. Her blue eyes capture them all. Her pet habit is eating ice cubes-or just eating. Show her a chocolate cake, and she'll leap with joy. All in all, she's one grand girl-good luck, Mamma , HARRISON HOLT RICHARDSON Vice President IV: Shingas Staff: Orchestra IV: All-State Orchestra IV: Football I, II: Basketball Mgr. IV: Tennis III, IV: Hi-Y II, III: Science Club II, III: French Club IV. Here is the boy who travels from high Beaver to Beaver High. Now do you see why we call him Hy-die ? When he is home he looks down on us, and when he is here we look up to him. Though he earns high grades in class, he still finds time to act as Senior Vice President, as Basketball Manager, as a member of the Tennis Team and Orchestra. The rumor has spread that he has a little time for the fairer sex now and then: so all we can say is Hy-die-ho and the best of luck. ROBERT WILLIAM DAUMILLER Treasurer II, III, IV: Hi-Y II: Shingas Staifz Dramatic Club IV. Dutch is our popular class treasurer His other activity is chief errand boy. When somebody wants something done, he just calls Bob . We cou1dn't get along without him and we know a certain little brunette on Lincoln Avenue couldn't do without him, either.

HAROLD BAHM Basketball I, II, Ill, IV: Commercial Club III: Newspaper Stafl' IV. Who's that coming down the street? Good old happy-go- lucky jake. Frecks is one of the seniors who has the deter- mination, ambition, and personality to go places and to do things. If he isn't studying or working, he is using up some of that excess personality on the ladies. If Frccks,' is as lucky in life as he is basketball he is headed for big things, BETTY JIEANNE BARNES Glee Club I, II, III, IV: G. A. A. I, II, III: Tri-Hi-Y I: Cum- mercial Club III: Basketball I, II, III. When it comes to having fun in Mr. Smith's classes, Betty is right there. Since Betty's great ambition is to become an expert stenographer or secretary, she does her best in this teacher's room, Although she is often quiet and reserved, you can break this barrier by friendliness. HOWARI7 CARL BARNETT Quiet plus friendly equals Howard. Yes, Howard is quiet and well liked by his fellow classmates. Any time there is anything to be done you will always find him ready and willing to help. It is with all sincerity that we wish him success. 15 .--1- X -'. ,ff 'Q' .zqfvgranx g, 4f,r--v '!r kQ-1f Na.-- Q I A -- O -1 f 1. 0 5 ' -tr ' - my.: W BECK aEviNG1'oN Bonxovic BRAUN lUI.A UIOSIZPI IINIQ ISIQCK Illvi' Club I.

It was a delightful day in '34 when we entered the grand old ship and took our places in the second rank. Our first official act was the selection of Mr. Baker as pilot. He guided us very successfully in sponsoring the Christmas football dance. We were well represented in football, basketball and other activities. Another year slipped by and we found ourselves Iuniors. From this high rank the sea did not seem so dangerous or rough. Our first exhibition of our sea worthiness was a carnival which we put over with smashing success. Re- sponsibilities were heaped upon us but we kept off the rocks. Rings and pins were given to us as medals for our seamanship. Tea rose and silver were our flying colors and they waved gloriously and triumphantly after we sponsored one of the finest proms ever given. Pilot Mrs. Cummins, and first mate, Glenn jones, were kept busy devising schemes to raise money. As Seniors we were nearing our goal. After braving the hazardous sea we finally reached the last rank -1 that of supremacy. A SHINGAS staff was selected and under Miss Lloyd's leadership an unusually good year book was published. At the first of the year we held a carnival which was closely followed by the Christmas wreath sale. We showed our ability by selling 1500 wreaths. To top this we held a February Swing Dance - something extra special. The Senior Class Play and the Senior Dance ended our projects with as much success as our first dance in '33. Events were so numerous that before we realized what was happening, we had passed into the still waters of graduation. We wish to express our thanks to Mrs. Cummins for her expert guidance and also to Miss Lloyd for her cooperation. We regret to end this voyage but Beaver High will remain in our memory forever. Sincerely we hope the Iuniors will continue to uphold the honor of the school and will be as loyal as is the Class of 1937. - FRANCES McKEE.

Then in our Sophomore year it became more exciting as the class entered into the activities with great zeal. On September 8, 1936 we entered as Iuniors and this stirred us with enthusiasm as we looked forward to a very busy year. We had well chosen our officers with Ioseph McCaw as President, Philip Martsolf as Vice President, Armella Braun as Secretary, and William Popp as Treasurer. Ioseph McCaw, Iohn Schwartz, Lloyd Shenefelt, and William Popp and William Baker represented us in the Student Senate. Our first project this year was something entirely new. It was a Cabaret Dance which resulted in an evening of great entertainment as well as a successful financial affair. With the oncoming of football activities we were proud to have our class play an important part in sports. March 1, 1937 found the chairman, Homer Portman, and his committee busy with the selection of rings. We are certain that our class, with the able leadership of this committee and our sponsor, Miss Morton, will be more than pleased with the selection. Along at this time also was the selling of Easter eggs. We are counting on the proceeds of this project for the long-looked-for event of every year -- UTHE PROM . We are sure that this prom will be one long remembered. Iohn Roth, busy as general chairman, was aided by his untiring committees. -- ARMELLA BRAUN, '38. f' 1 f l Z- cCf r - x 4 Ja, Q K if-' XX ' .nw-4 K KL. :BARN-5+ :!.,'E,,u .u-asia-uw.. ff x JP ' V, f gil' . 4' rgiamn, Cvweoeizbia E243 - Sophomore Class History at In 1935, we, the Sophomores, started our first year of school in higher education. Although very proud, we were as green as grass but didn't admit it. The first few days were quite hard until the programs were distributed which explained all the rules and regulations of the ensuing year. After that everything went on smoothly. Having survived the ordeals necessary for Freshmen, we returned to school in 1936 as Sophomores to take upon us a harder task and.a highly important duty of obtaining more education. We are very glad to say that our self- appointed task has been accomplished with the best of results. In social affairs as well as in scholastic achievement we lower ourselves to no class. The Sophomores sponsored the annual football dance with great success. In sports we are well and ably represented. Our football and basketball players, while not champions, will finish high in the race for class honors. Last, but not least, we are proud to say that we have a very nice faculty which seasons our hard task with a little bit of fun and pleasure, and may those who will come after us find all the joy and pleasure that we have known. - MARY Louisa Bumcx.

B R E G Freshman Class History 4 It was with few misgivings and high hopesethat we, as Freshmen, entered Beaver High School in September of 1936. The mad scramble in search of classrooms and lockers baffled us at Hrst, but we soon adjusted ourselves to the routine of high school and prepared to show the upper classmen that we could take it. We did not forget sports in our busy life as Freshmen. Some of the boys tried out for football and basketball, and the girls Qnot to outdone by the boys, tried out for basketball and other sports. Since the class has not been organized, we have not done much this year, but we have supported all those activities sponsored by other classes. We are represented by Betty Glass and Robert Stout in the Student Senate. We are looking forward to the time when we will be organized, and in our Sophomore year we hope to do bigger and better things. So watch out. Here we come. - IDA BURTON, '40. 44 9 CfrafWc??

Williams Never has it been so hard to say farewell, adios, au revoir, auf wiedersehn, or what have you, as it is to Mr. Williams, or may we now call him Iosh ? Coming to us in '32, he has turned out consistently capable teams under the captainships of Buck Lynch, Iohnny Breckenridge, McDade and Terry, the unforgettable Iimmy Anderson, and our own product, Web Black. While Iosh's five-year record is a good one, he carved his name in the hearts of us all and in Beaver's Hall of Fame by one supreme stroke of genius- the indisputable victory over Rochester in 1935. That was our, and probably his, happiest day, for the victory was won only by the three fundamentals which he strove so hard to perfect in all his teams. Often the haunting words, Charge, block, and tackle echo through the minds of Beaver's ex-es . ln addition to the fine example he set for football aspirants, 'iloshn was extremely popular with B. H. S. students. Weepy can never be forgotten. Some day perhaps many of us will sit in the Pitt Stadium, nudge the blonde next to us, and say, HThat fellow down there chewing his fingernails and tearing his hair is losh Williams. He and l used to be just like that! Why it seems only yesterday that - and so on into the night. Therefore it is altogether fitting that 'iloshn should leave us for Pitt - his Alma Mater, lock Sutherland - his college coach, and that system of football he tried so hard to teach us. The Class of '37 prefers to feel that he is Beavers gift to Pitt rather than that the great university loaned him to us for five short years. However, if it was a loan, we are repaying Pitt with heavy interest, for according to the latest plan, f'Iosh is taking limmy Anderson and Ed Terry with him. May all three shine in the Rose Bowl some glad day as coach and proteges! - DAN FINKBEINER. '37, 42k f f ? ,,,,., 3 I K V A ,N 4 .ly QE X Z' ilu XX.-s f.:-wwf k k aka -th ' ' ' x - as tt in V fail.

It was the first game of the year, and the only score was made in the first quarter before our boys got over their nervousness. However, after the first quarter the game was very even. Beaver threatened once on Zelienople's twenty-yard line, but all hopes died as a pass to Davis was intercepted. BEAVER O - MIDLAND 6 '- Midland was very much surprised by the gameness of the small Beaver team, and was able to score only once. The game was hard-fought through- out. Beaver's best chance of scoring was ruined when we missed a first down by two feet on the twenty-yard line. The loss of this game didn't mean so much to the maroon and gray as the loss of Frankie Grdenich's serv- ices for the rest of the season due to a broken collar bone. BEAVER 14 - AVALON 6 -- This was the first game of the season in which our team was able to get rolling in the first quarter. Beaver scored early in this first quarter and repeated in the third quarter. ln addition to a fine offensive showing the team was strong defensively. Avalon was kept in check until the final minute when they scored on a line plunge. BEAVER 27 - MONACA 2-Beaver scored an easy and an impressive victory over the Monaca eleven. Our team dominated the play throughout the game, but was unable to score in the first half. However, it was not long after the beginning of the second half that the team began rolling up the points. Penny crossed the pay-off marker twice. Peoples and Kountz came along with their contribu- tion, each scoring once. The first downs serve the best description of the game, Beaver hav- ing sixteen to Monaca's one. BEAVER 12 - FREEDOM O - A contrast to the game last year played on Freedom's windy heights was this struggle on our mud- dy field. Neither team was able to use its offensive power. Beaver's two touchdowns were scored by passes from Peoples to Davis. The game was marked by fumbles, each team fumbling five times. BEAVER 6 - CORAOPOLIS 6 - Beaver tied Coraopolis, but suffered a moral defeat. This game is still fresh in the minds of many Beaverites as a result of a decision in the final minutes of play. Coraopolis started the scor- ing by a long pass, Hovveverf it was not long after until Beaver scored by a pass from Peo- ples to Brown. Nearing' the end-of the final period Brown completed a long pass to Black putting the team ,in scoring position. The ball was moved up to fthe. six-inch line, but through all 'efforts nth? boys were unable to take the ball ,over officially. BEAVER 7 - UNION TWP. O - A shiver- ing crowd witnessed the victory over Union Twp. The teams did not play their best ball, but cold hands were much to blame. It wasn't until the third quarter that Beaver scored its seven points on a line plunge by Penny, and a placement by Peoples. There were several other threats throughout the last half, but fumbles kept them from advancing. Never- theless, we are glad to chalk up this win. BEAVER 0 - LEETSDALE 6 - Leetsdale's small but game and hard-hitting team gave the team an unexpected set-back. What caused the boys to lose this game is unknown. It was an even struggle most of the game, both teams threatening several times, but neither able to score, until the last quarter. Nearing the final minutes of the game the Leetsdalers managed to come out on top by the completion of a pass from our ten- yard line. BEAVER O - ROCHESTER 20 -- Rochester was seeking revenge for last year's defeat at the hands of a determined team. It was an- other determined team that took the field for Beaver on that Turkey day, but they were unable to cope with the heavier and stronger Rochester team. Krouse and Hesser, Roch- ester's outstanding players, enabled Rochester to get their revenge. We sincerely hope that our next year's team will have better luck at Rochester. ' A 47 -i '12 l ' A ..-T -'TZ -nu-9'-4'-H Xxx L TX ,ff M'-'.i4,, .: Q sis? l l Lettermen WILBERT BLACK - Web , our captain and star end, was always on the job. He was outstanding in games both of this year and last. For his excellent play, he gained the' end position on the All-County team, thus show- ing he has what it takes. PAUL DAVIS - Silent-Dub , a veteran of two years on the gridiron and 'Ahardwoodn has set an example for Beaver's future ends by his brilliant receiving, which was especially noticeable in the Beaver - Freedom game. DANIEL FINKBEINER - Dan had one of the biggest responsibilities of anyone on the team, for he had to Hll the position of Hsnapperbackn left by Iimmy Anderson of last year. Dan kept the morale of our team up in many of the tight places, and still kept up his own position. FRANK GRDENICH-Frank didn't have much of a chance to show what kind of Hstuffn he was made of but he played a real fullback position in the Beaver-Midland game. It was in this game that his collar bone was broken, thus ending his football career in B. H. S. GLENN IONES- Ionesy , although connect- ed with many other activities, was able to find time to act as manager. His biggest job, keeping up the goal posts, was done very successfully and he will be remembered for the service he gave to the squad. IAMES KLINE - Our usually gentle lim was big, bad and bold when it came to a football field. He has the reputation of giving opposing ends a terrific beating, and it was very sel- dom that holes were opened inside, outside. of over Gut . LYLE MAYNE - To be a Hchampn you have to be able to give as well as take and Lyle has had his share of both. He took it night after night in practice, and dished it out in numerous games. In the Union Township game he covered himself with glory in a bril- liant sub role, showing up the other so- called regulars , RALPH MORTON - While Bus' size would be a handicap to any fullback, he carried on the line bucking duties like a 200-lb. veteran. Bus shone especially as a ball-handler and blocker. His value is appreciated most by those with whom he played. 4852 ,.,h-ri-f fi: XE :SET N ZW- s x,r I A '1 2 ll --' hm- XX,:NQf-mild-.4 Q CK AMX is h.. :Qi .i.wau.... f ff x ' 2-' ' .'

In addition to the heavy duties of a triple threat man, Peeps was our field gen- eral, pulling varied plays from his bag of tricks, Stop that Peoples guy! was the vain cry of all our opponents. EARLE PRATT - Pratty , first to practice and last to leave, was the hardest worker on the squad. His true value was shown in the Avalon game when he caught two difficult passes and advanced the ball from the 40-yd. line to the 8-yd. line and paved the way for Beaver's second score. All present at the football banquet will remember the stirring tribute Mr. Williams paid Earle. and we all know he deserves the praise. WILLIAM SHROADS - Here is one boy who really loved football. The Shroads family has been playing football for B. H, S. for eight years altogether and Bill is the last of a group of five boys. His bullet passes and clean blocks were stray points in Beaver's attack this year. ROBERT SNITGER - Bob lacked the expe- rience of some of the veterans of the team, but he made up for much of that by his enthusiasm and desire to make good. PAUL STUCK - Stinky , who is very quiet off the gridiron, was one of our big guns on the line. He was a consistent player, always banging away at the enemy. He saw more service than any other player, not having missed a game in two years. ROY CASBOURNE -- Roy was one of the most conscientious players on the whole squad. He practiced hard, and he played with all his might in the games. His spirit and dogged determination set a good exam- ple for all of us. VICTOR HALL - Vic, taking on a new position as quarterback, played his usual fine defensive ball. He is credited with being a hard tackler and a good clubber. As next year's captain, we feel sure he will lead the team to a successful season. WALTER KOUNTZ- Bunch, another pack of dynamite in the backfield, gained much experience this past year. Although short and stalky, he has what it takes to damage opposing lines, and we're looking forward to a good year for him. EDWARD MAY - Eddie proved himself a capable and efficient signal-caller in the games in which he participated. With a little more weight and experience Eddie will give a very good account of himself. NICK PAVLINICH- Nick was another de- pendable link in Beaver's strong line. He was always a hard tackler on the defense and consistent player on the offense. THOMAS YURASICH' -- Though Tom's po- sition was guard he could always be found in the thick of every running play. His play- ing both offensively and defensively was always above average. IACK BROWN -- Brownie, one of the best passers of the valley, shows great promise of becoming a valuable man for next year's eleven. He is not only an excellent passer but also a good running back. This he showed on many a game. With this year's experience we are sure he will make good next year. WILLIAM PENNY-Bill was the speed king of the squad. Though much lighter than the average opponent, Bill could always be count- ed on for a good game, and was considered one of the best halfbacks in this section. -- 49 L 'N Kill ' -5 ...-ff . -M 1 -e r - 2 - -- P emwxfxr . 4 A- ,C Summary of Basketball Season Our pre-season started with a bang as we defeated Union Township on their floor, 22-21. However, we were unable to repeat the victory the following week on our own floor. Next came a heart-breaking loss to the classy Leetsdale five by a score of 21 to 22 after an extra period of play. We then ventured to Beaver Falls, where we were up against a good ball club, but we put on a fine exhibition even though we came out on the short end of the score. Our next engagement was with the Geneva Fresh- men in which we scored another victory. We started the regular season with our old enemy, Rochester. This game was a hair- raising thriller. lt was in the third extra period that Rochester took the ball game by a two- pointer, Midland, the sectional champs, were very fortunate to win this game for it was close and exciting throughout. Our decisive victory over Mars was our first league victory. Next came Monaca, or may we say Zigerelli. It was not until the second half that our boys be- gan to play, but it was too late. Our journey to Evans City's skating rink was not successful, as the team did not get accustomed to the floor until after the second half. The second victory of the first half came as a victory over Freedom. After a pep talk by Mr. McCormick to defeat Zelienople, his old school team, the boys failed by a close margin, 30-28. This ended the first half of the season. Al- though the record doesn't show many victories, the team did play good ball in spite of some hard luck. The second half consisting of six victories out of seven displayed a greatly improved team. We started out with Rochester again. This game will long be remembered for the team was out for revenge for the first half loss. Re- venge it was, which is shown by the score, 37-25. Midland again proved too strong by setting the boys back for their only loss in the second half race. At Mars the Iuniors saw most of the service and ended up with another victory to our credit. The Monaca game, a hard-earned victory for the Maroon and Gray, was a very interesting battle which lasted an extra period--the final score, 29-25. Evans City still having a chance for the league title, was sadly disappointed after a hard-fought game in which our Beaverites proved too strong. Free- dom was the next victory of our raging cam- paign. Our last league game was with Zelienople and resulted in a grand and glorious ending. Coming from behind to overcome an eight point lead, the team was able to come through. This ended the second half and a very successful season with ten victories and nine defeats. In spite of having the smallest team in the section, we packed our games with thrills and played before crowds that packed our gymnasi- um almost every game. With four lettermen returning, we look forward to an exciting Sec- tion 12 campaign next year. 50 K x v .x 4 dl, QE ,Q l, xi-R zvuaunc K ilkg Nriivx ,pls-lllhta-an c i :ll-H If 1 .. -.. ljg-iuldum '-::'-'- -f i 71 '?T'f ?

Although quiet and shy, Dub certainly made enough trouble for his opponents. CO-CAPTAIN PEOPLES -- Allie, the fastest and quickest man on the team, displayed class in his two years of regular play. MAI was a worry to all his opponents because of his ability to cover the whole floor. He can be very easily placed among the best guards of his section. CENTER, WASHBURN - Dearest, the man of many nicknames, was a valuable member of the team. Although he was the shortest center in the league, he consistently got the tip-off. We will best remember AAPee-Wee for his fine second shot which won the Evans City game. FORWARD, MCCLOSKEY - Burch did not show what a fine forward he was until the second half of the race was under way. Then he was always among the leading scorers. Despite a poor beginning, George was second highest scorer for the season. FORWARD, FLANIGAN - Mish - short and sweet! Short in stature but high in scorel He proved himself a very valuable player with his swishing shots, which made him high scorer for the season. We are sure Monaca will never forget his accurate shooting which set them back on their heels. GUARD, FINKBEINER -- Dan, the Vice President of our Varsity Club could always be depended upon for a steady, clean, hard-fought game. MANAGER RICHARDSON -- I-Iydief' although engaged in many other activities, was able to give efficient service to the team. Even though he had trouble with the stop watch, he managed to shoot the cannon on time. CENTER, LEARY - Babe, the tallest man on the squad, promises to take over the center post next year. He showed his ability by his play this season. FORWARD, MARTSOLF - Phil, the boy who works so hard on his gum, will be a fine forward when he puts that energy and his height to work next year. FORWARD, MAY - Eddie showed some real promise in the games he entered. He appears to be a good shot and a hard lighter. We expect to see him go places next year. GUARD, ROLAND - Chuck, another of next year's hopes, proved that he will be valuable to next year's team. His excellent shooting from mid-floor will be a great help. Chuck did not see much action this year, but everything points toward a successful season for him next year.

Beaver Falls, the winner of our section, was the only team which proved to be too strong for our racket wielders.

A brief summary of what has taken place this year in the way of girls' sports follows: HOCKEY -- - Early in October marked the first hockey practice. The turnout looked promising for some exciting games. However, as the girls found out that it was no sissy game, they dwindled down to just enough for two teams. The Iuniors and Seniors formed a Iunior team and the Freshmen and Sophomores combined to make a Sophomore team. The season ended when these two teams played, the Iuniors coming out on top. VOLLEY BALL -- Volleyball was started next. Although no teams were formed, and the only games played were those in gym classes and at practices, this sport is to be resumed in the spring. BASKETBALL '- At last, the one sport most all of the girls like, started. When practice was called, it was met with whole-hearted approval. After some time was spent in shooting and other fundamentals, class teams were formed. Not all the games have been played off at this date, but the scores of those that were are: Seniors, 21 - Sophomores, 16: Iuniors, 19 - Freshmen, ll, Sophomores, 22 -1 Freshmen, 15. MUSHBALL '- The last of the sports will be mushball to be played in the spring. Always a well-liked game, it is being looked forward to with much anxiety and we hope to have a successful season. - BETTE ENGLE, '37 94 f-4k1 'l 'f T 4 eznl if XX K :ikgW.,x'Al5Xkm -E 2,4 Z' X :Q ' VA I .

Wilson Treasurer -d--- Beatrice Cain Organized for the purpose of broadening enthusiasm in girls' sports in the High School, the G. A. A. has proved to be quite worthwhile, During the year, numerous hikes, roller skating parties, swimming parties, and social events were met with hearty approval. A farewell party was held in Ianuary for Miss Denniston, who left our schools to accept a position at Baldwin-Wallace College, Berea, Ohio. Miss Wilma Carnelly was assigned to fill the vacancy. The Association, with a membership of over one hundred, plans a dance to be held in the spring, as well as other activities of keen interest. - BETTE ENGLE, '37 57 'i 'ill Q ' 44.- '! mai, ffl N ,ff ' ' ..-ff --i ,- - W , 7 Y!

However, Mr. Davis lined up a team which started to do wonders. Several crack Independent teams were met, such as the Ambridge Hall Patrols. the Rochester Independents, the Leetsdale Shop team, and the Beaver Reserves. The club won all of these games, and one would notice how much better they played from week to week. Soon all eyes were pointing toward an undefeated season. However, all good things must come to an end. The Ambridge Hall Patrol Team, which had been defeated on our own courts, were hosts to our team at Ambridge. The officials--well, anyway, the club was defeated, 30-27. Then, a general slump followed due to illness and absence from school. After a few games lost by one or two points, the regulars came back to school, and gave next year's varsity a good fight, but were defeated by three points. The last game of the season played against the Beaver Hall Patrols, a team composed of several of the varsity players, was won without much effort. Although the season was not perfect, the fun the fellows had in playing, and the band made between the boys and their coach was well worth the effort to put it out. ak Varsity Club The Varsity Club, a new organization in Beaver High School, was formed at the end of the present basketball season. The club is sponsored by our basketball coach, Mr. Baker, and includes all the boys who made their varsity B for the 1936-37 basketball campaign. This group includes seven major Senior members and four Iuniors. We elected Co-captain Paul fDubj Davis as president, Daniel fFinkyl Finkbeiner as vice president, and co-captain Alfred iPeepsl Peoples, secretary- treasurer. The purpose of the Club is to create and maintain a greater interest and enthusiasm in the school for athletics in general and basketball in particular. As one of its first activities, the club sponsored two post season games-1 one with East Palestine High School, and one with New Brighton High School. The money realized from these games was used to purchase coat- sweaters for the seven senior members of the club. These sweaters, letter certificates, and school letters were presented by Mr. Baker in an appropriate basketball assembly program. We sincerely hope the Varsity Club will be a permanent organization and a wholesome influence on B. H. S. athletics. 2 ffhafff 1, xx - ,u,u,.4 K ,ik xrigb .Fl ggi .L-Slate-M2 X. . --, 7 ' A 1 .N :Lp N 4-1 , t?g:'?jg?m7Qg,, g ,...-5 , ,g-' ' ul egg -- Q , 'Q' i ,2 cqafiuifisz Literature Music Drama Vocation Q 60 E Q f52f3f Www f Xf 4 ff Q5 , fp .fn xp - UK' X Q1 ffmw-1 K K Qt 5' ,h y ff!

' A ff' '22 The Shingas Staff The Shingas is the annual publication of the Senior Class of Beaver High School. It records the events of the school year through the medium of its organizations, social affairs, athletics and graduates. The Staff is the only organization in the school to which only Seniors can belong. Election to the staff is the means by which we distinguish some of the members of the class who are hard workers and deserve special honor for their work. The Staff members are elected by ballot at the beginning of the Senior year. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the entire contents of the book. The Literary Editor edits all printed material. The Photogaph Editor collects and mounts the pictures, and the Art Editor sketches the beautiful drawings we find in the book. The Business Manager and the Class Sponsor are respon- sible lor the financing of the book. These editors have assistants who work with them. As a whole the Staff has done a fine job this year and they deserve a lot of credit for their work under many trying circumstances. The biggest part of the credit, however, is due to Miss Lloyd, our advisor. It was her hard work, patience, and unerring guidance that brought this annual from a vague dream to a reality. This year the Stall' has endeavored to improve the former volumes of the book. They herewith present their sincerest eH'orts for your approval. The Student Senate In order that the work of the Student Senate might begin without delay last September, the election of members took place in May of 1936. The group is composed of five seniors, four juniors, and three sophomores in addition to the presidents of these classes who automatically become members of the Senate and the two freshmen members, elected at the beginning of the second semester. The results were as follows: SENIORS: Daniel Finkbeiner, President of the Student Senate: Lyle Mayne. Vice President: Erminie Allison, Secretary: Glenn Iones, Ralph Morton, and DeWayne Ieifers. ILINIORS: Ioseph McCaw, William Popp, Iohn Schwartz, Lloyd Shenefelt, and William Baker, who filled the vacancy left by the resignation of Phyllis Brown. SOPHOMORES: Albert Kenehan, Paul Schaughency, Margaret Hackett, and Richard Hopkins. FRESHMEN: Betty Glass and Robert Stout. During our weekly meetings with Miss McKinley, plans were formulated to benefit the school in every possible way and to aid in controlling school activities. The various committees such as chapel, locker, and hall patrol, have as chairmen, members of the Senate appointed by the president. The Constitu- tion of the Senate, revised last year to suit the new needs of the school, was adopted by our members. Representatives from our group attended a united meeting of the Student Senates of Beaver Valley at Freedom for the purpose of gaining new ideas from the different schools. We are sure that with some of these suggestions the Senate will advance even farther in success. 'rd f - ,. Zi ZJRTTQ-7-K Cf nf Q KTTT '1 i ull!

Mr. Paterick directed the Orchestra through a successful year. It gave performances in chapel at various times and participated in two music nights. The outlook for the orchestra in the future is bright. About fifty instru- mental pupils are progressing rapidly and a few are expected to be admitted next year. - IACK O'BRlEN, '37, PERSONNEL VIOLINS- iTl.ARlNl-1'l'S- llmrrison Rirliartlsoii Rllylmmd Rlclmrflx Ruth Iicklcs -Limos Wfillinms Starr Hacker 'l'RfjN1BQjN1Q,?

New instruments were bought through the efforts of the director and Mr. McCormick. The members of this organization received one-fourth of a credit and one period each week was set aside for group instrumental practice. The band played throughout the year in chapel, for pep meetings, in the Armistice Day parade, and at two music nights. The fund for new uniforms is steadily increasing with donations from various organizations of the town. - IACK OVBRIEN.

Since then their enthusiasm has not waned. At the first meeting the following officers were elected: la presidente, Mlle. Wallace: le vice-president. M. O'Brieng la secretaire, Mlle. Proffitt, la treso- riere, Mlle. Grine. Mlle. Morton was our patient sponsor. The club usually met the first Wednesday of the month. These meetings have proven beneficial as well as interesting. We have learned about the customs, language, schools, and literature of the French people and have enjoyed reading French plays and stories and singing French songs. The French Club Musicale, a program of French songs and dances, was presented in the auditorium the fifteenth of April, The following French ll students participated: Starr Hacker, Louise Grine, Betty Mae Gould, Rita Rohr, Patricia Snead, lean Wallace, Daniel Finkbeiner, Lloyd Meyer, Stephen Minton, and Har- rison Richardson. - CLARE PROFFITT, '37 Q?

T f ef Girls' Glee Club The Glee Club is composed of girls from every class in high school who have learned to appreciate the value of good music. During the first semester the group met during school hours under the capable direction of Miss Graf, who had been with us for several years. She resigned her position to join another school. However, we were not to be discouraged as a new teacher was secured. Mrs. Kramer has been very helpful in going ahead with the work the second semester. The group now meets after school. The Glee Club has made few appearances this year, but is eagerly looking forward to the Baccalaureate Service in the spring. Anyone who has heard this club sing has doubtless appreciated the work done by it this year under the careful supervision of our teachers. - RUTH ECKLES, '37 66 1 JM CE K' Xxxl 9nHDiD'l K K Q -xfgii 1!'l -I lim K . 7 ,- ' Q ' f.,I c M f',la',lf . -1. . :.- .,.1.,-- Lu. . . . 777-T - . .-' ' ' , is TM 1 '-- 4 - V ZTTYWIT - - - -.

Vocational Club The Vocational Club is composed mostly of boys from the shop. To join the club, the prospect must be approved by the club. A vote is taken on each member-to-be. Many of the members are football and basketball players. Probably the most successful venture of the club this year was the basket- ball team. As there is another write-up for the team, we shall just mention the boys who earned their V here. They are: Captain 'ADravo Smith, Champ Mayne, Charlie Cascio, A'Cal Kiedaisch, UWillie and Walter Brown, and managers, Ice Palookan Pavlinich, and Curley Pratt. The team was successful in winning games and in having fun. The officers of the club are: Nick Pavlinich, president: HBus Morton, vice president: Alfred Peoples, secretaryg and HDub Davis, treasurer. At the present time they are planning a dance for the club. The proceeds of this affair will be used to finance a trip to Pittsburgh for the club members. Having accomplished things in the athletic field, and planning an enterprise in the social field, the club closes its year with a feeling of extreme ,,,,...-- satisfaction. - LYLE MAYNE, '37 67 -A all S A: -f ammo, ll A ,ff ' .f- ' -' ..f--V ' V f -- ..qf,,.-f a n - L xt!!-PX v 3x Jlwf Ts, Boys' Glee Club The Boys' Glee Club of Beaver High had a short season, due to the resignation of Miss Graf.

Due to schedule complications, our daily meetings are held in Room 102 rather than the Auditorium. The first semester we learned the fundamentals of dramatics. Our first task was to learn to walk, breath, stand, and sit correctly. Since we had over- come most of our shyness by this time, we developed our ability to speak to an audience with ease. Many interesting experiences were revealed in these talks, but we all listened to them with great confidence, Poetry and prose readings concluded our work for the first semester. The second semester introduced make-up, contest work and stage settings. Our experience with make-up was brief but fascinating. Through the art of Mrs. Cummins, aged, beautiful, and handsome creatures were revealed to us. We are very proud of the fellow members' splendid work in the Forensic League contests. Those members of the Dramatic Club who participated in the contest were: Starr Hacker, who read a Shakespearean selectiong Ralph Morton. who gave the Declamation, and lack Kennedy, who delivered the Oration. As a final project each member of the club selected a scene from a well- known play and produced a suitable stage setting. Many unknown talents were revealed in these works of art. Several plays and readings have been given this year for our chapels and other school affairs. The plays given were: HFull Circle, which revealed the phases of the life of a college girl, and A'Christmas Trimmingsf' which depicted an old-fashioned Christmas in an ultra-modern manner. The members of the Dramatic Club have enjoyed every minute they have spent in it. We have already realized its many benehts in our school life and know we will realize many more after we leave our Alma Mater. - RITA ROHR, '37 -5 112 e A --f --l asf ll X Mariah.

National Honor Society The Alpha Chapter of the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools was char,tered in Beaver High School, March 6, 1937. The object of this chapter is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in pupils of Beaver High School. Candidates eligible to election in this chapter must be in the first third of their respective classes in scholarship. Final selection is made by faculty and student vote under the direction of the Honor Society Council, by ratings in quality points in service, leadership, and character. The emblem of this society is the keystone and the flaming torch. The keystone bears at its base the letters S, L, C, and S, which stand for the four cardinal principles of its organization: scholarship, leadership, charac- ter and service. On April 9th the first members of this organization were announced to the student body and presented with beautiful certificates signed by the sponsor of the Society, Supt. G. A. McCormick, and the principal of the high school, Miss McKinley. The charter members are as follows: OFFICERS V President - Vice President Secretary-Treasurer Erminie Allison George Borkovic Elaine Gilchrist Bette Mae Gould Starr Hacker William Harris Erskine Harton Glenn Iones Harrison Richardson Daniel Finkbeiner - lean Wallace Bernard Kiedaisch Anna Madish Lyle Mayne Andrew Parkinson Clare Proffitt Raymond Richards Rita Rohr Frank Schwartz fd . , p .

'ziafy Prophecy Will Humor Chronology The Human Side of the News FLOOD SURPASSES ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS Pittsburgh, Feb. 20, 1956 The muddy Ohio River, in this flood, has surpassed the high flood record established in this city twenty years ago. Property damage, estimated by His Honor the Mayor, Daniel T. Finkbeiner, and City Treasurer, Robert Daumiller, will exceed loss encountered by the flood of 1936. Relief work, under the direction of Iohn Topping, national head of the Red Cross, continues to progress. City Chief of Police Kline, while standing shoulder deep in water in front of the Flanigan Monkey Wrench Factory, was interviewed by your reporters from a boat. He said, Ulf this keeps up, you can look for a flood, mark my words. He then stepped off the curb and disappeared. Ioseph Flaherty, sales- man for the Scroggs and Redfern Investment Company, plunged from his office window on the second floor of the building and rescued Officer Kline, who immediately asked for a drink of water and then continued with his duties, As we rounded the corner, we came upon Bob Roush, hanging from a lamp post, spearing cigar butts as they floated by. We went down the street and noticed the water beginning to creep into the second floor offices of the Stuck 6 Glessner Weight-Reducing Salon. Robert Wheeler, the janitor, was trying to sweep the water out as fast as it came in. Peering through the next window, we saw Maestro William Shaw playing River, Stay 'Way From My Door on his violin. Holding his music for him was his wife, Ianet Springer Shaw. Hearing screams for help, we stopped at the windows of the Ieffers- Cochran Dancing School, and rescued Edith Hall, the pianist, and four stu- dents-Calvin Kiedaisch, Betty Barnes, Howard Eckles, and Albert Rall. We immediately hailed a passing motor launch, manned by Robert Huffman, and turned them over to him. Going farther down the flooded street, we passed the Nixon Theatre, where we saw manager Alex Stefani sadly wishing for the flood to subside so that his current hit She Holds Down Two Iobs, or 'She Has to Work Fast, produced and directed by that little giant of the American stage, S. Bradley Minton, could go on. In the cast are Paul Davis, successor to Leslie Howardg Starr Hacker, the leading lady: and a supporting cast which includes lean Rowse, Virginia McTaggart, Catherine Stack, Mary Throckmorton, Earle Pratt, and Charles and Bill Allmon, who have made quite a success as the Nut Brothers. After stopping for a moment to speak to news-cameramen Frank Schwartz and Robert Cowan, who were shooting pictures of the disaster, we proceeded to dry land and the refugee stations. In charge of the most important of these stations we found Lyle Mayne, conferring with Food Administrator Paul Sum- mers. Lyle seemed to think that his products should be used instead of those of the George McCloskey Bakery. Dr. Paul HHosenose Washburn was inoculating flood victims, among whom we saw Donald Harris, prominent art editor: Betty Gould, noted dietician: Erminie Allison, well-known socialite: Iames Ferguson, draftsmang and Iames Gregory, who well recalls the flood which inundated this section twenty years ago. 1 After getting a bite to eat at Leah Riesberg's Goode Foode Shoppe, we hurried to the airport to greet George Borkovic, army engineer, sent from Washington by the President, Glenn Iones, to study future flood control methods.

We were informed by the city editor, William Russell Harris, that the Old Ladies' Home was on fire, and we hastened there in time to help Nurse Dorothy Iohnston bring Miss Lloyd out. Fire Chief D. Schlosser, assisted in the evacuation of the inmates, while the Bucket Brigade, headed by Ed Patton, Andrew Bunish, and Ralph Koble, did their best to put out the blaze. The director of the home, Ioan Simpson Dau- miller, who some say received her position through her husband's influence, could offer no explanation as to the origin of the fire. Cook Virginia Cowan suffered slight bruises when the refrigerator, manufactured by the Housholder Holderhand Company, exploded from the intense heat. We turned Miss Lloyd and Virginia over to the proper authorities, and proceeded to the Dot-N-Dash Radio Station under the supervision of Erskine Harton. Erskine informed us that Congressman Harrison H. Richardson's boat, the Greata Belch IlI, was preparing to sail down the Ohio to the site of our Alma Mater, Beaver, and that we, as reporters, could accompany them if we so desired. We secured our editor's permission and were soon aboard the launch. Mrs. Eunice Shaw Richardson, our host's wife, showed us around the boat and told us that the reason for this dangerous trip down the swollen Ohio was her anxiety for her parent's safety. We traveled swiftly with the current and were soon opposite the half-submerged steel mills in Aliquippa. The pilot, lack Cooper, was doing his best to dodge floating wreckage, when suddenly we saw someone clinging to the roof of a partly submerged house floating nearby. We approached and found Harold Bahm, manager of the large steel mill, and wife Mary Funk Bahm, who designs women's clothes under the name of Gracie. We rescued them and proceeded on our way. We soon reached the mouth of the Beaver River. Turning sharply to the left, we sailed up what we presumed was Bridgewater's Main Street, since all that could be seen of the town was a church spire. We moored our boat at the edge of the water at the P. E1 L. E. Station, and after thanking the Senator for the exciting trip, went to the Municipal Building to see Burgess Robert Hayes. He told us of the fine work that the Women's Club, headed by Ieanne Iohnston, was doing to aid flood sufferers in the valley. He also told us that the High School had been thrown open as a shelter to refugees at the request of the head of the local branch of the Humane Society, Robert Sitler. We went there and were greeted by football coach, Wilbert Black, his assistant, Frank Grdenich, and Audrey Douds, typing teacher. Wilbert informed us that Alfred Peoples and his Slap Bang Orchestra, featuring brother Leroy's dancing, was to give a benefit dance in the gymnasium that night. We assured him that we would be there. Among the refugees at the school we saw many of our former school friends: Betty Shepherd, Mrs. lean Thomas Smith, Ralph Means, and Andrew Einstein Parkinson, who was worrying about his flooded laboratory. We left the building in search of food, picked the closest restaurant, entered, and sat down. We ordered, but when the meal came we found, among other things, flies in the soup. We called for the manager to complain, but waiter Iohn Campbell informed us that the place was managed by two friends of ours-lean Cochran and Agnes Murray. Not wishing to spoil this new enterprise of theirs, we let the matter drop. As we left the restaurant, we met Iohn Smith, and his wife, the former Betty Engle. They invited us to their house for dinner and we gladly accepted. They later took us to the dance in their new limousine, chauffeured by Leroy Nulton. 'ill X 'ff Musik, lf- 'NN5:-fT5Nr-- -- ff I ,..'-- ' . Y Y 'A , .. - V Rfk 2. if g. 5 ' L W . 'I ,., We met many prominent people there-Iack O'Brien, who did so much for television, and his wife, Mary Hackett, Lewis Lovell and Elaine Gilchrist: Raymond Richards, who wrote the 'Al-Spy Detective Stories, with his wife, Mary Russ Richards: Clifford Todd with Patricia Snead, whose lovely voice is heard with the magic violin of Ruth Eckles, on the S. Hudson Radio Hour: and Guy Spratley with Iean Harris, noted for her poem Ode to an Ash Can. After this affair for such a good cause, we obtained lodging for the night at the Teeny Weeny Tourist Tavern run by Esther Erwin and Dorothy Perkins. In the morning, after being served breakfast by Millicent Smith, we went out to find more human scenes from the flood, and met William Shroads, looking quite happy. It seems that he had built a boat in the cellar of his Bridgewater home, and was unable to get it out until the flood had taken the house from over the boat. We were exclaiming with him over this piece of luck when we were inter- rupted by a messenger boy, Thomas Woodrow, who told us that a telegram was coming in for us. We went to the office and found that it was from L. E, Braun, who was touring Europe on his scooter-bike. He enclosed a check for the flood sufferers from his AASpecial-Diluted-Buttermilk'' Factory on the Rhine. The telegraph operator, Lula Beck, was having a hard time keeping com- munications open, since the water was rising higher and higher around her little office. Suddenly Ioe McMahon rushed into the office, exclaiming that he wished to send a telegram to Albert Wanner, head of the Wanner Buy Something? Five and Ten Cent Stores, the local branch of which he managed. His clerks were on a sit-down strike and he had no one to stand up and wait on trade. We accompanied him to the store and we were surprised to learn that the instigator of the plot was Rita fThe Rockj Rohr, who had recently been promoted from the paper dish and towel counter to the chewing gum department and seemed to have no cause for complaint. She had led the other girls, including Anna Madish, from the Kiddies' Knick-Knack Department: Winifred Hum, from the lace, ribbon, and shoe string counter, Hazel Hill, demonstrator of the HO So Peachy Hair Slicker Downer: Mildred Wolfe, of the flat iron counter: Mary lane Park of the building supplies and glue, and Phyllis Crawford, in charge of the nightgowns, window shades and binoculars, into this riot. The girls would not listen to reason, not even to us, so we took our trade elsewhere. We went angrily out into the street and met the reporter of the local paper, Eddie Flocker, who did not speak to us. Deciding that it was professional jealousy, we passed on with our noses in the air, and bumped into Iim White, Vaudeville's Strongest Man, who was so glad to see us that he swooned away. He was revived by Frances Calamity McKee, head of the McKee Safety Pin, Locomotive, Toothpick, Chewing Gum, and Boiler Works, who was passing. We immediately fainted too so that she could revive us. Upon regaining con- sciousness, we were greeted with the joyful news that the water was slowly, but surely, receding. We grasped our pencils, things, notebooks, stuff, and a scrambled egg sandwich-dashed to the water's edge, and watched Bridgewater drift down the river. In the crowd around us we saw Howard Barnett, author of the song, The Face on the Bar-Nett Floorf' Ira Campbell, and his wife, Virginia Dele- vang Ralph Ammon, clock and cuckoo fmostly cuckooj maker: Gale May, who operates the R. F. D. Mail Truck: Dorothy Ashbrook, society editor of the i'Times, who was taking notes on what the well-dressed refugee will wear: and Ruth Bonnar, who was selling popcorn and peanuts to the spectators on credit. Since we could do nothing until the water had receded, we dragged our- selves back to the Teeny Weeny Tourist Tavern to get a few hours of My 2' f 'X 1, XX Q- 1ik,E'!,g1.V,1' 1gLiUAte.uA fgf F ,,-- If ini M 2'1- '92 X 3 ' I!

Two days later, when we saw the light of day again, clean-up work under the direction of Robert Snitger, Beaver's biggest and best cleaner-upper, had already begun. Virginia Wycoff, whose husband, lack Wilson, manufactures the Why-Coff Cough Drops, was in charge of the sanitation drive. Fire Chief Lester Bevington and his men were pumping things, including water, out of the cellars. All of Bridgewater's stores fboth of theml began a rushing business. Transportation facilities were opened, and rehabitation was begun. Louise Grine, Beaver's Florence Nightingale, went about doing good. Even the old miser, Bernard Kiedaisch, went on a spending spree. Clare Proffitt, Beaver's school superintendent, began plans to reopen the school: and Charles Iohnston, noted artist of the valley, started a series of pictures, depicting the rise, crest, and fall of the flood. Doris Eppers, Beaver's wealthiest woman, donated a large sum to reconstruction. Since the valley was recuperating so wonderfully from its disaster, we decided that our work was finished. We went to Patterson Heights, and char- tered Wilson Majors and his plane to get us back to the city in time for the deadline. We were just getting ready to leave when a delegation of some of the town's most prominent women, among whom were Beulah Houchens, Dorothy lean Logan, Marjorie Noss, and Alice Oppelt, came to thank us for all we had done to help. We tearfully bid them farewell ffor one of the ladies had been eating onionsl and took off. In spite of strong cross-currents, ice, sleet, snow, rain, hail, dust storms, lightning, thunder, and the depression, we reached Bettis Field in ten minutes. We dashed to the city in a taxi driven by Pittsburgh's only feminine taxi driver, Iane Henderson. We were delayed at several traffic lights. Suddenly at the corner of Sixth Avenue and Watkins Street-named for the famous inventor, David Watkins-we came face to face with another car- in fact we walloped them. Our driveress, Miss Henderson, emerged from the cab without even opening the door, bent upon mutilating the other driver with a bit of fisticuffs. It turned out, however, to be Marie Henke, accompanied by Gladys Walters. Instead of a fight the result was a good old-fashioned hen party, right there in the middle of the thoroughfare. We knew it was useless to ask Iane to continue, so we ran the remaining twenty-four blocks. Half way up the forty-two flights of stairs we turned a corner and ran smack-dab, ker- plunk, and such, into Fay Mortimer and Marie Vesperman, who had been to the paper office to inquire about Beaver and the flood. We asked their pardon, helped them to their feet, told them the choice bits of news we knew, and dashed up the remaining stairs to the office. We composed ourselves and prepared for the grand entrance: and what a welcome we received! The typists were asleep: the office boys were playing cards, the reporters were out to lunch, and Editor Harris was taking his knitting lesson from Miss Lloyd. Using our favorite expression, Well flip me and flapjack, said we, We've brought all the latest human news of the flood. Said Editor Bill fwe called 'im Billl, What flood? T But he was only joking-you know how Bill is'-and in no time the office was the scene of industrious activity. Proud are we, the demonest of demon reporters, to say that our paper, The Bolt-Missing Express, was the first to have the inside story of the flood of 1956. And so, dear readers, we shall toddle off to the Glue factory to see if the nag we bet our last gold teeth on has rounded the first turn. Goodnight all, .

Now, Princess Peachypusse was a right prettie wight. Forsooth, ye damosel was Toppes, and her favour was coveted by all ye princes of all ye realms about. Albeit, onlie three had succeeded in winnyng ye insyde tracke. They were, to wit: Harrie ye Hastie, Sidney ye Slowpoke 6 Cedric ye Sensible. And these three did lynger about ye Royal Palace so persistentlie that His Royal Majestie, what with butter at 40 farthyngs per lb., did wax wroth and decyde it hygh tyme that ye Princess did choose betwixt them. Wherefore ye Kyng did summon ye rival princes into ye Royal Presence and proclaym a Tournamente, ye termes of which did provyde that ye prince who should prove himself most proficient in ye art of drivyng a gasoline chariote should be awarded ye hande of ye Princess Peachypusse in wedlocke-1 ye decision of ye judges to be final and, in case of a tye, no duplicate awards to be made. Accordynglie, on ye appointed day, ye princes in their petrol buggies did barge through ye assembled rabble and draw up to ye Royal Palace Gate, each full of confident of bringyng home ye well-knowne bacon. And, havyng bor- rowed a ducat from ye hotte dogge vendor, they did flippe ye coin to determine who should be first in ye tryals. Ye tosse was won by Harrie ye Hastie. With mighhie alarums upon ye two-toned horne did Harrie ye Hastie step on ye gasse. O'er hyways 6 byways did he blister ye macadam, leavyng every where a wake of wrathful travellers by-foote 6 choleric custodians of ye traf- fick. And thus did Prince Harrie think to prove his mettle: Around ye corners on two wheeles: up ye hilles on hygh 53 down ye dales wyde open: beatyng ye traffick beacons by a whisker and Deathe by a movie queene's eyebrow. And when, with smokyng brakes they did return, then did Prince Harrie look expectantlie to receive ye plaudits of His Royal Majestie. Albeit, when H. R. M. did wriggle pale 65 distraught from ye rumble, he did give ye hopeful swain a'goodlie piece of ye Royal Mind. And fulle of umbrage was Prince Harrie when H. R. M. in hygh dudgeon did bellow lustilie to ye Royal Gaoler: Hie yon impetuous churl to ye Hoosegow, for he hath most shamefullie violated ye traffick laws of ye landef' Thus Prince Harrie was cast in durance byle. ye whyle ye rabble did accord him ye fruit. Betimes Prince Sidney ye Slowpoke did come to batte. Profityng from ye Horrible Example set unto him by his predecessor, Sidney did cut ye speede of his coupe to ye minimum. Verylie, he did dryve so slowlie that he was o'er- taken by sundrie gamin on kiddie cars, a funeral procession E1 a drummer sellyng Squire Eliot's Fyve-Foote Shelfe from doore to doore on a bicycle. His Majestie, after gnawyng ye Royal Kunckles a considerable tyme, anon did fall asleepe and would thus have remained had he not been roused by ye clamorous bruityng of a lyne of chariotes extendyng fullie four blocks behynde. And when, at longe last, Prince Sidney did bryng ye Kyng and ye Prin- cess to ye Royal Palace, ye choler of H. R. M. was fryghtful to looke upon. Gadzooks, sirrah, he gadzooked, thou art slower than ye proverbial treacle in Ianuarie. Shake ye leade out of thy tyghts and scramme l Natheless, there remained yet time for ye doughty Prince Cedric ye Sensi- ble to do his stuffe. Now, wise ye well, Cedric was no dumbe-clucke. He drove his sedan most moderatelie, heedyng well ye traffick mandates: allowyng ye travellers-by-foot to crosse ye streets in safetie, and refrayning from passyng other barouches on hilles or curves. So pleased was H. R. M. that he did then E1 there proclaym Prince Cedric champion of ye Tournamente and did awarde him ye hand of ye lovelie Princess Peachypusse.

The Senior Carnival The Senior Carnival was held in our gym. The crowds that thronged its premises were of all ages - from the toddling to the tottering, and there was something to amuse everyone. For those rare intelligent individuals, a modern museum was devised where they could go and take notes on the Senior Class's sense of humor. For those with gambling instincts, the fish-pond did its darndest and many worth-while things came from it. l speak from experience. Those loving blood-curdling thrills found themselves comfortably at home in the Ghost House. Cthers of the more timid sex screamed and shook to the delight of the ghosts. . There was a place to try to win free tickets by throwing darts correctly: but if milady preferred to dance, she could do so to her heart's content. Her vanity was even satisfied by the taking of several pictures there. Monsieur could buy Madam a set of wool yarn dolls which were Gone With the Wind. They were the hit of the evening and so great was their demand that weeks after the Carnival had come and gone the Senior girls were busy making them. Of course, they had a floor show. Among the distinguished artists present were Lloyd Myers, Edith Hall, Louise Grine, Stephen Minton, Louise Cochran, Marie Henke, and Patricia Snead. To satisfy the more human side of us there was food almost everywhere we looked. What a night ! What a Carnival l Come again, please, as Mr. Paterick would say. -1 STARR HACKER, '37 'A' lunior-Senior Prom 36 Last year the Iuniors gained new honors for themselves in giving the Seniors one of the most picturesque Proms ever seen in the B.I I.S. Gymnasium. The gym was decorated to represent a Iapanese Garden with Iapanese lanterns strung upon the ceiling and in each corner a little bridge, gayly covered with cherry blossoms. Also, on each side of the 'igym there were cherry blossoms entwined on lattices. At the door each couple was presented with a tiny Iapanese umbrella. The music for this evening of all evenings was furnished by Albie Nelson's Orchestra. The girls made it a very colorful affair with their lovely dresses. It was with many happy memories that the Seniors regretted turning their backs on their last High School Prom. 'W '12 l C X-N ,f-'- ' -1--f-Z ,g X1 X x - f? pf! E I 4 -1--'f -FQZLQKAY ' Q.. Chaucer A The following poems are extracts from lean Mary Harris' Chaucer note- book, which are worthy of preservation. TALBOTT INN The Talbott Inn still stands today And looks about the same old way Ye ole Talbott Inn - so says the sign A place for travelers to eat and dine. The Talbott Inn was the exact spot Where Chaucer laid his Canterbury Plot You could have a room if you were able But if you weren't you slept in the stable In the back part there was a bar The beauty of the place - it did not mar The meals were made on coarse black bread The meat was beef or pork instead. CI-IAUCER His early life is little known So this shall deal with him when grown. There were four points to his success The one was freedom from bias He had the art to look and see Describe the scene accurately Then his was humor without sting He saw the good in everything His hero is not the usual kind Of whom we read but never find But his is someone that we meet A common man along the street Of life! Our friends might even be Compared to him successfully Not only was his writing great He had an even greater trait His real success was due to charm His words of cheer, his smile so warm It really is no wonder then That he is loved above all men. 'THE KNIGHT The first one mentioned was the Knight A man of courage and of might In many battles he'd been bold By him his deeds were never told He was a lover of chivalry And believed in truth and courtesy. Truly a man of character Never a worthier man was there He was not clad as one might guess He did not take the time to dress ' His cape of cloth was old and coarse He rode a good but lifeless horse. And though that he was worthy, he was wise. Besides being worthy he was wise. .88 - ' fraff f f I f 'u- ,PZ s ll., ff r - 'N i nlfl QE -AN-Tx rv- XX-foe -H-W' x i I- ,J .ic +ve ... , f f N :, 7' ' A ix A-if Atkfshi ,' A - , ij ! 4'-uf-1.L,.1-J.-sph.-Iwi.-aff.
