H. S. We owe the beginnings of our high school to Professors Hughes and Galbraith, two of our earliest instructors. These two men, who so willingly gave their time and spent their energies in organizing this school certainly deserve great credit. We take this opportunity to extend our thanks to these men and the others down to the present day, who have thoroughly and unselfishly given their best that we might profit by it. We have always been proud of our school and indeed with great reason. From small beginning our school system grew until in 1875 a large building was built. This building sufficed for a while but in 1898 the Paul Darling was built. In this building we have a very fine auditorium, the social center of our school. The years rolled on and more and more students had to be accommodated. So in 1923 the first of the new annexes, designed by our present principal, Mr. Mcllhattan, was built. This splendid annex contains beside classrooms, a very fine laboratory and the office of the principal. From 1923 the student body of Brookville High School increased from about three hundred students to approximately four hundred and fifty students in 1928. This growth in numbers necessitated more room and so in 1928 the second of the annexes was built. This fine large building contains one of the largest high school gymnasiums in Western Pennsylvania. It also houses the Domestic Science Department with its sewing and cooking rooms and a very fine cafeteria. The other floor space is taken up by class rooms and the Commercial Department. So much for the history of the school, but the history is not our primary concern. It is the purpose of this volume to present Brookville High School as an institution; to give you a summary of its courses, its purposes, and its ideals. We feel that in educating the student body to the ideals of Brookville High School we can make it a better school and institution. Brookville High School offers many courses, as will be found in looking through this book. But in giving thorough courses, the active side of life is not left out. We have our glee clubs, orchestra, basketball, track and baseball teams, National Honor Society and French Club. We have everything that can be expected of a secondary school. To the succeeding classes we leave the heritage, not of wealth or power, but the heritage of lifting Brookville High School to a higher level for the classmen of coming years and generations. F EEFE? 18 PAUL 0ARLIW6 MEMORIAL MALL 98 Page Six The Year Book of Achievements Miikm Page Seven L’Annuaire, Brookville High School New Organization of Our High School UR schools have been reorganized on the 6-6 plan. There are six elementary grades and a six-year high school. The six years of the high school course are divided into two periods of three years each, called the Junior and Senior High School. During the Junior period, special guidance is to the pupils to help them decide the vocation for which they are best fitted. Senior period, the pupils are being guided in their preparations for taking up their fife work. Our high school is working harder than ever before, since the adoption of the new plan to train its pupils to be loyal, helpful citizens. The teachers are among the very best. The pupils are being trained both intellectually and physically. Strong, sound characters are being formed by the examples and instructions of the teachers. We hope each pupil may be so taught that he will be fitted to take whatever course in life he desires, and be of use not only to himself but also to his country. We, the pupils of the high school, have our duties too. We must do our part by upholding the standards of the school, we must obey rules, and we must, most of all, be loyal. The school cannot keep on improving unless we stand behind it. We are using this motto as one of our standards: being given During the “It Is Not Easy” It Is Not Easy To apologize To begin over To admit error To be unselfish To take advice To be charitable To be considerate To endure success To keep on trying To avoid mistakes To forgive and forget To keep out of the rut To make the most of a little To maintain a high standard To recognize the silver lining To shoulder a deserved blame But It Always Pays.” Author Un nown to Us.

Another large group of names is being added to the Alumni of Brookville High School. The potentiality which this group represents cannot be estimated. If the training, the knowledge and the various abilities of this group could be conserved for Brookville each year, the progress of our community would be unlimited. If I have a message for the class of 1929, it is, “work. You did not enter Brookville High School and do four years' work in order to learn how to go through life in a leisurely manner, but rather to learn how to work more effectively. Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great American poet and philosopher, said, “Labor is God’s education. He only is a sincere learner, he only becomes a master who learns the secret of labor.” Time is the one thing of which each person has an equal supply. “It is the only commodity that slips away in a steady stream regardless of what you do with it. It cannot be halted in its flight, nor coaxed or forced to return.” A billion-dollar corporation with all its wealth and credits, cannot buy back one second of yesterday's time. Some one has said that the only difference between a world master like Edison and an aged pauper is the difference in use which he has made of his hundred and sixty-eight hours of available time each week. It makes no difference, whether you go to college, whether you enter business or what you select for your life’s work, it is “work” that will determine your success. Very sincerely, Wm. H. MclLHATTAN, Supervising Principal. Page Ten The Year Book of Achievements ZX= Page Eleven L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Achievements of Brookville High School ROOKVILLE High School has started on a new era of prosperity and elFiciency. The school is now one of the best of its kind. Its equipment is remarkable for one of its size. This Educational institution is, indeed, an object of pride to the people of Brookville. The school has done things of which it is proud. Within its walls unheard of achievements have been accomplished. Some of Pennsylvania s most successful men and women in the business world today received a part of their education in this school. Artists of many kinds have visited it and demonstrated their talents before an interested and wondering audience. The rooms have echoed with laughter and again have had an uncanny stillness as each busy head bent over its task. It has been said that a city set upon a hill cannot be hid. The same is true for the Brookville Schools. Before many years after the Darling Hall was built the rooms were filled to the utmost capacity. A new addition was built to supply the needs of the students. Year by year the school grew in size and standing. As it grew it reached out and assumed new branches in order to keep up with its standard. An orchestra was organized. Group singing was started and developed rapidly. People began to hear of Brookville Basketball Team and learned to speak the name respectfully for the team proved its extraordinary ability. Many other accomplishments were added to the school's list of achievements. In the past few years the rooms again became overcrowded. Everyone made the best of the situation for several years. Then the news was broadcasted that the town of Brookville was thinking about building another addition to the high school building. The students went wild when they were promised that the new building would contain a large gymnasium. That promise was fulfilled. In the fall of 1928 the students came back to a bigger and better high school. The new annex was completed in December. Five new classrooms solved the question of space, each room being equipped with a fine heating and ventilating system. A large library opened its doors to the students. Chairs and tables were placed about in a convenient manner so that reference work might be done with ease. Large bookcases were installed and shelves line the walls from floor to ceiling. Collateral reading need no longer be regarded as a nightmare. The high school girls were overjoyed when they saw the Domestic Science Department which had been equipped for their use. Its light, airy appearance gives an optimistic impression. In the kitchen were placed an up-to-date range and gleaming white sinks. Tables with the essential utensils were provided. Work became play in this cheery place. Lastly comes the gymnasium. It has a seating capacity of nearly one thousand people. Tier upon tier of seats mount up from the great, smooth floor. A good view of every part of the floor can be had from any seat in the gymnasium. Is it any wonder the students are proud of their home? They are justly proud and should be congratulated for their school spirit. The motto of B. H. S. might be: “Expect great things; realize your expectations.” Page Twelve in the past The Year Book of Achievements Manual Training HE Brookville High School has been benefited by the addition of another department. For several years the establishment of a Manual Training course has been considered. This year the course was added to the cur-riculum of the school. A visit to this new addition would be an education to many. It is equipped with tables fitted out with the necessary tools which might be needed for the work. The room hums busily as each interested worker applies his hand to the task. Each problem is solved under the supervision of Mr. Barnett, the in' structor. Mathematics is essential to this type of course and ts made easier by application. A boy understands the meaning of mathematical terms more readily when he works them out for himself by means of a few tools and a piece of wood. This being the first year that the school offered the course, it was impossible to cover as much as the school would have liked. The course is required in the Junior high school, hut only a limited number of the Senior high school students could be ad' mitted. In a few years it is hoped that this course may be offered to all who wish to take it. The work at first consists mostly of learning rules and working simple problems by means of the tools provided. Toys of different sorts are made. As the boy advances in the course he makes more complicated things, such as articles of furniture. This course is another step toward helping the student to choose his vocation. It has turned interest into another channel. It is different from any other course ever offered in Brookville High School and certainly is as beneficial as it is different. It is, in short, another achievement. Page Thirteen L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Home Economics HEN the new Annex was built this fall it was decided that several new departments should be installed. One of these is the Department of Home Economics under the direction of Miss Abrahams. Here, the problems of sewing and cooking are taught. The course starts with the making of simple construction stitches. These stitches are later used in making two garments, pajamas and a dress. The cafeteria is under the direction cf this department. There were over 5,000 lunches served in less than three months. We extend our sincere appreciation to the friends of the school, who made th’s department possible by helping to equip the lab' oratory; the Child Welfare for the tables; Mr. Lucas for the stove in the unit kitchen; and the faculty for the sink. Page Fourteen The Year Book of Achievements Hot Lunches ROOKVILLE Schools have been striving in every way to better conditions. For this reason the hot lunches originated. It was discovered that a bowl of hot soup or a cup of cocoa were very acceptable to students on cold winter days. Many of the students walk several miles to get to school, miles on the train. By the time they reach school they have had their share of exercise for the day; it is not all they get, however. At noon they eat a cold lunch. This is not enough after such vigorous exercise. They cannot do their best mentally if they are not at their best physically. At four o’clock they start out again on their journey home. A hot lunch puts new vigor into pupils and derives better results in daily lessons. The hot lunches were prepared in the new Domestic Science kitchen this year. At noon the students go down and get what ever food they wish. Then they go to the gymnasium to eat their lunch. The food is sold at cost. The serving of hot lunches was not intended to be a money-making proposition. It was begun for the good of the students. Since so much good has been obtained from the hot lunches, they are in all probability a fixture in the school during the winter months of each school year. It is beyond doubt that the students will be glad to see them continue in the years to come. Page Fifteen L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Commercial Department N education that fits for life is one of the aims of our modern educational system. To turn out graduates well adapted to take their place in out4 business world to be producers, and work for the betterment of mankind, this is the aim of education. No other department in our school does this as directly as the Commercial department. Here, under the watchful guidance of Miss Thomas, our newly established department seeks to turn out young people better fitted to cope with life because of the business education that is so efficiently acquired. To one planning a direct entry into the business world, typing, bookkeeping and shorthand offer a means of quicker promotion, easier and more enjoyable work, and above all, the satisfaction of a task well done. We consider this department one of the most progressive in the school system, and we hope that it will grow from year to year and accomplish more and better things for Brookville High School and the students. Page Sixteen The Year Book of Achievements Library UR new library is one of the prettiest rooms in the whole school. It is large and light and airy. It is well filled with pupils every period in the day. The magazine table is most popular. A bevy of busy readers always surround it. Many pupils, some doing reference work, others reading for pleasure, are found at the other tables. In connection with the library are two smaller rooms. The work room is being fitted for cataloging and repairing books, and for doing other supplementary work. The conference room will be fitted with table and chairs so that small meetings can be held there. In it tests will be given to small groups, teachers’ conferences can be held, and teachers can meet with small groups of pupils for extra work. These two rooms will add greatly to the value of our library. There are about thirty-seven hundred volumes in our library. We have some of the best reference books available. We have a great deal of English, French, and miscellaneous literature. Most of the greatest poets’ works are there. We have history books of all kinds and quite a few religious books. A great many more volumes of fiction have been added this year. They are very popular among both the high-school pupils and those of the higher elementary grades. We have a very efficient corps of workers this year. Mrs. Carroll and her helpers know just where to find any book. They teach pupils to find books for themselves, and to use the card catalogue and “The Readers Guide. They strictly enforce the rule of Silence. As our library has prospered in the past, so we shall make it prosper in the future. We shall try each year to make it better, for through books we gain the summit unattainable. Page Seventeen L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Science HE present age has been appropriately termed the scientific period of hu-man progress. More advance has been made in things of a purely scientific nature in the past hundred years than in all previous history. This fact alone is in a large measure the reason for giving the study of Natural Science a place of importance in the modern High School curriculum. We need only look to the fields of Industry, Agriculture and Medicine to fully realize the important bearing of scientific investigation on human development. The science courses in the Brookville High School are outlined with the purpose of following in so far as possible the rapid advances that are being made in modern scientific thought. We try at all times to direct attention to the modern scientific method,—experimental fact, hypotheses, theory, law,—thereby setting forth the real meaning of science as organized and systematic knowledge. In the ninth year a viewpoint course is given under the title of General Science, the object of which is to open up the nature and usefulness of scientific study. This is followed in the tenth year by the course in General Biology. The primary purpose of this is not in the way of Nature Study. On the other hand the big generalizations of science as related to life processes are stressed and made the chief aim of the work. The science work of the eleventh year is General Chemistry which includes an elementary but rather detailed study of the more common metallic and non-metallic elements, followed by an introduction to the principles involved and the methods employed in the chemistry of organic materials. A course in Elementary Physics is given to the twelfth year pupils. The major topics of study in this connection are Mechanics, Heat, Light and Electricity. Page Eighteen The Year Book of Achievements Home Room Organizations NFLUENCES in the home account greatly for one’s actions in the outer world. In the same way the Home Room Organization accounts for the conduct of the student in his everyday school life. For several years Home Room Organization has been stressed. It is only reasonable that if each room becomes a cooperative body, the school itself must run smoothly. A great body of students cannot function properly unless it is subdivided and organized in smaller groups. This year the home rooms have worked together and as a result have accomplished a great deal of good. Each has elected its officers and held meetings in which home room and school problems have been discussed. The students have given to their groups short, impressive talks dealing with individual reponsibility, correcting defects in the study halls, better methods of study, and many others. The students attend to all the business which comes before the group. Therefore, they become intimately acquainted with school problems and as a result are more interested in the welfare of the school. More good can be accomplished in ten minutes by a student's talk than can be ac-complished in half an hour by a teacher giving out rules and regulations. The Home Room Organizations are responsible for the interesting programs which have been presented in chapel this year. Some very unique ideas have been portrayed. It is the universal opinion that this year's chapel programs have been exceptionally fine. Are not all these facts sufficient proof of the good that the Home Room Organiza-tion does in the school? In innumerable other ways the school has been benefited by this busy, efficient department. Page Nineteen L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Boys’ Gymnasium E are coming to realize more and more that pleasant recreation and good scholastic ability are closely united. So this year, in addition to our course in girls' gym, has been added a course for boys. Brookville High has needed something of this sort for a long time. The girls have received gymnastic training all the way through school, while the boys have had no opportunity for regular instruction along this line since entering high school. This is not as it should be. The boys require the training just as much as the girls. It is quite generally thought that boys receive enough exercise without additional care, but systematic supervised exercise is what we need. It is what we now have. Then, too, this new field is very valuable in another direction. Often boys are indifferent about school work in general, and may, through the medium of supervised gymnasium work, be led to take an interest in all school work. The boys are under the direction of a special teacher, Mr. Rathman, who is also the basket-ball coach. Their first duty was to learn the “Code of a Good Sport.” They play basket-ball and practice military tactics. Preparations for football are also under way. The new addition is of great value to our school and its usefulness will probably be varied and increased each year. Page Twenty The Year Book of Achievements Girls’ Gym Classes LL work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. It makes Mary a dull girl, too, for that matter. Brookville High School has tried to offset the monotony of studying books by giving the pupils two periods of gym work each week. The girls' gym work consists of setting-up exercises, marching tactics, aesthetic dancing, parallel bar work, track, archery and games such as basketball, volley-ball, soccer, and captain ball. Each year the girls are required to pass a test which includes the things emphasized during that time. The girls are required to wear light middies, dark gym bloomers and tennis shoes. Each year the girls give a costume pageant under the direction of Miss Anna B. Lilly, the teacher. These are usually based on some historical event. It is a very pretty sight to see all the girls—from the little tots in the first and second grades, to the Seniors—out on the lawn in front of the school in their gaily colored costumes. The girls’ gym classes are said to be better this year than they ever have been before. This is mostly due to the marked difference between the old and new1 gymnasiums. The new gymnasium has so many advantages over the old that it is impossible to enumerate them all here. The larger size and the better equipment of the new gymnasium are the two most important to the girls. The improved girls' “gym” classes in our high school are making healthier and thus brighter pupils and are creating an interest in athletics which will last for many years. Page Twenty'One L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Choruses USIC has always played an important part in our Brookville High School, although it is not compulsory to all the students. This year the music has been under the supervision of Miss Marget Loop. There are three definite choruses in our high school: The Boys' Chorus, Freshman, and Sophomore Girls’ Choruses. The Girls’ Choruses are accompanied by Jean Barrett and the boys have Thomas Canning as their able accompanist. Each week in chapel we have some kind of musical entertainment, and these choruses have aroused much interest in our Wednesday morning programs. There is one song that will remain with us always, that is the ’’Pep Song. It can be sung over and over, but the tune never seems to grow old. Everyone knows how to pep up “The Pep Song,” especially during basket-ball season. Page Twenty-two The Year Book of Achievements Orchestra “Yes, Music is the Prophets’ art; Among the gifts that God hath sent, One of the most magnificent. —Longfellow. USIC is one of the most magnificent things of life. Music affects people strangely, at times. The person who is not moved by the strains of music is seldom found. Persons may be caused to laugh, to cry, to become melancholy, by the particular type of music to which they are listening. What can do this more than an orchestra? One can find in it instruments which appeal to every mood. Music is a real part of life and so cannot be ignored. The Brookville High School Orchestra is a very fundamental part of the High School. Under the direction of Miss Marget Loop it has been making rapid strides toward success. The Orchestra is growing in size and quality each year. It now has to its credit thirty up-and-ready members. Commencing this year one-fourth credit is being given each year to the members who have attended orchestra practice regularly. This year the orchestra has been playing for the pep meetings and the basket-ball games, and has been a great aid in arousing the school spirit. But its playing has not been limited to the school alone. Our orchestra played at the Flower Show two afternoons and two evenings, at the Kiwanis Club, at a reception for the teachers, at the Methodist Church, and on other similar occasions. No play or High School gathering would be quite complete without this genial crowd of music-makers.

Only a limited number of students have the honor of being elected to this organization. The members are chosen on a basis of four points: Character, Leadership, Scholarship, and Service. Good, all-around students are the only ones selected—students who are considered honest, industrious, and good sports. Each member is presented with a little pin on which is engraved the first letter of each word for which the Society stands. This year two new members have been chosen. Rose Lauer and Evelyn Burkhouse are to be congratulated upon having the honor to become a part of this worthy body. Four more will be selected before school closes in June. Scholastic standing alone does not suffice to become a member. The three other qualifications weigh as heavily as scholarship. This affords a larger group of students a chance to strive for honors and give in the; years to come, a more glorious record to the school we love. HONOR GROUP These are students who have earned twelve or more E's and G's during their four years in Brookville High School. Honor: Hazel Batastini, Evelyn Burkhouse, Arnold Clover, Mary Deemer, Theodore Heckman, Thelma Hooper, Dorothy Horner, Frederick Johns, Rose Lauer, Elizabeth McKinley, Lucille Richards, Katherine Sandt, Catherine Truman, Marjorie Whaley, Pauline Woodall. Honorable Mention: Thomas Canning, Hugh Reilly. Page Thirty-one L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Class of 1930 President....... Viee President. Secretary.......

Page Forty-six Page Forty'Seven L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Assembly IGH School assembly is held every Wednesday morn’ng. All the pupils are required to be present. The first part of the exercise is always devotional and formal, and is followed by a variety of programs. Professor Mcllhattan has made music an outstanding feature in the chapel programs. There is a special musical number played in each program, such as solos of various instruments, as the trombone, violin, and clarinet. There are also songs by the students and choruses of the High School. Some of the outstanding chapel programs have been as follows: A Christmas Cantata, under the supervision of Misses Loop and Koehn; a Lincoln play, written and directed by Miss Reicherter, and an entertaining talk given by Miss Stewart about the interesting places she visited last year while abroad. There were many amusing plays given by the students of different home rooms. Many lectures of various sorts were offered by noted men. Page Forty-eight The Year Book of Achievements “Honor Bright” HE Senior Class scored this year with its unusually fine Class Play. But then, with Miss Smith as director, and an all-star cast, what more could be expected? The plot of “Honor Bright” begins when John Fuller as Dick Barrington, invites his chorus-girl fiancee, Tot” Marvel, Betty Hopkins, to meet his mother and aunt. Hazel Batastini and Catherine Truman. When Tot” doesn’t arrive, Dick persuades Honor Bright, played by Mary Deemer, to take her place. At midnight when “Tot” shows up there is trouble. Even Thomas Canning as Bishop Carton, with his good intentions, can’t pacify her. Much explaining is done to the family and servants. At last Bill Drum, William Truman, Jr., arrives on the scene and makes “Tot” return her ring to Dick. Dick, who has fallen for Honor, is perfectly satisfied and everybody lives happily ever after. “CLARENCE” A group of students, directed by Miss Miller, assisted by Mrs. Carroll, presented “Clarence” December 13th and 14th, to make money to buy new books for the library. L’Annuaire, Brookville High School The French Club E Cercle Francais of our High School is composed of first and second year French students. The regular time for meeting comes once every six weeks. At the first meeting each year we elect our officers. This year the following were elected: President, Marjorie Whaley; Vice President, Thelma Hooper; Secretaire, Katherine Sandt; Tresoriere, Jean Wilson. We carry on les affaires as much as possible in French. Our pins, the emblem of our society, have as their design le fleur de lis, the national flower of France, and surrounding this the name Le Cercle Francais.. We are very proud of the beauty of the design. Other schools seem to like it too, for many schools have copied it and use it for their own French Clubs. The most noteworthy activity of the club this year was a play by the French author, Max Maurey. Its name is “Rosalie. It was translated and dramatized by our Seniors. The cast was composed of the following pupils: Betty Hopkins with the role of Rosalie, Katherine Sandt, Madame Bol, and Thomas Canning, Monsieur .Bol. The translation of plays or other things of that kind gives one a much better idea of spoken French than daily lessons from books meant for study alone. We hope to have several plays next year. At Christmas time we learned to sing many French songs. Our favorites were: La Marseillaise , Jour de Lumiere , Que Chacun S'Empresse”, and “Frere Jaques. We use “La Marseillaise” often. We like all the songs, but we like it best of all. We are building up our French Club to make it better year by year. It is the oldest organization of its kind in the school. We are trying to make it the most worth while. With each member working for its success, it seems not unlikely that it will be at least a rival of the best of our other clubs. Page Fifty The Year Book of Achievements Junior-Senior Banquet HE Junior'Senior banquet last year was a great success. If you don t believe it, just ask last year's Seniors. Miss Stewart outshone herself in planning the setting. The banquet was held on board the S. S. Hope, more widely known as the Presbyterian Church. The sea was calm that night, but the laughter and deep feeling seemed enough to cause a tempest on an ordinary sea. Far off over the blue, blue waters glinted the white sails of pleasure crafts. In the distance busy little steamboats sailed swiftly to and fro. We crossed the gang-plank to the resplendent deck, where the Seniors’ royal colors gleamed. There Izzv Strr s orchestra entertained us with its merry music. A hearty welcome was extended to the Seniors by Eugene Johnson, and was answered by Eugene Monnoyer. Thomas Canning, toastmaster, had many witty remarks. Betty Hopkins gave a very interesting and original chalk talk. Professor Gayley s toast deserves to live immortal to fineness, sincerity, and truth. The Junior-Senior Prom, held at the Roof Garden, served to cover the feeling of sorrow and loss. There gayety and joy ran rampant. Music and laughter were everywhere. Page Fifty-one L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Athletics The most important step towards the advancement of the school was the building of the new annex, containing class rooms and gymnasium. The gymnasium fills a crying need of many years standing, and is a monument to the untiring labor and the foresight of our principal, Mr. Mc-Ilhattan. With a seating capacity of approximately eight hundred persons, large playing floor, excellent lighting and ventilating facilities, the gymnasium is one of the finest in Western Pennsylvania. A school gymnasium fosters school spirit, and affords opportunity for the building of the body together with the mind. BASKETBALL Viewed from the standpoint of games won and lost, the past hasketball season of B. H. S. could hardly be called a howling success. However, to the local fans, students and townspeople, it was most satisfactory. Every game was thrilling and hard-fought to the final gun, and the hoys certainly gave a wonderful display of courage and fight in their battles against more experienced foes. W ith only one letter-man left from the preceding year, Coach Rathman was forced to build from entirely green material. The team was obliged to practice in the Y , and to open, the season on the new High School floor, after only one practice on it. In spite of these obstacles, the “Rathman Ramblers’ set a hot pace and never quit trying, although they were nosed out by two and three points with heartbreaking regularity. A striking example of the B. H. S. spirit was set forth by the wonderful backing the team enjoyed. Game after game, the new gymnasium was packed with roaring, cheering rooters, who went wild over every move of their favorites. Support of this sort is in striking contrast to that usually afforded a losing team in most towns, and was appreciated by coach and team more than can be expressed in words. It leaves a warm glow in the hearts of the players to know that, win or lose, the crowd is with them, and, in a large part, the remarkable fighting spirit of the team can be traced to the loyal support they received. Although Alex. Deemer and Wallace are lost by graduation, the great majority of the team is carried over to next year, and prospects look very bright.

His energetic efforts at mastication were the objects of adoration by the fair maidens, to whom “Mac is the berries. It takes nearly a pack of Wrigleys to make him feel at home. In the person of Alcorn, B. H. S. possesses perhaps the most colorful and most popular player in the league. His wonderful fight and aggressiveness have endeared him to the fans in the other league towns as well as the home folks. In Punxsy, when he was fighting desperately to overcome a Punxsy lead, his shots were rolling off the rim in a most heartbreaking manner; in spite of their natural tenderness, many fans of that town were pulling for Fred to sink one, and one fair fan was heard to murmur, “Gee, I wish that gooddooking, black'haired boy would make one.” Well, Freddie! “Buzz Deemer possesses a unique record for accuracy in his shots at the hoop. During the season, he shot exactly three times; two were beauties from center which swished in most satisfactorily; the other was a high arching shot which hit the rafters at Sykesville, and spoiled a perfect average. Some shooting! Bullet” Pitts is probably not welcome back at St. Marys. During the game at that place the Bullet was dribbling up the court at high speed. He stopped at center, looked for an opening to pass, but none was forthcoming. He shot, and the projectile flew from his hands at such high speed that it assumed the size of a marble. It scorched through the air like a meteor, and hit the bankboard with a tremendous bang. The bankboard recoiled at least three feet and the building trembled, but did not collapse. When the splinters ceased flying, the ball was seen to have dropped through the h(x p. When the crowd awoke from their stupor, they realized that there had not been an earthquake; it had merely been one of the famous “bullets of Captain Pitts, of Brook' ville. Doylie Wallace, he of the flashing smile, was the King of the foul shooting brigade. Seven out of ten tries is not so bad, and Doylie and Gene Monnoyer still claim he was eased out of one at Sykesville. When Doylie shoots a free one, it is sunk.” Firl Kroh, although the majority of the fans were not aware of the fact, played many games under severe handicaps. With both legs badly twisted up with Charley horse, and later a nasty gash in his head, Firl offered himself in every emergency, and gave exhibition of gameness seldom equalled. His heart, although in possession of a certain young lady, is certainly in the right place. Eck Deemer, an ardent fisherman, has only once in his long and checkered career had his fill of that sport. At Ford City, he was pitted against a colored boy, who re-sembled a streak of black lightning; this lad rejoiced in the name of Baas. Eck had all the black Bass he desired, and how! Forrest Byerly, the butter and egg man of the team, enjoys the distinction of being the most popular member on the team among his team mates. His ready wit eased the strain of many a precarious situation, and when he suffered a broken nose during the season, the boys felt the misfortune probably more keenly than he did. In addition to being a sterling good fellow, Forrest was as good a defensive guard as the league boasted. When the pace of the game got hot, and the going a little rugged, Raybuck was certain to be in the thick play; he went best in critical situations. A fast game is his greatest delight, except eating beans in the Lakes-tO'Sea, which has its attractions for him. Page Fifty-four The Year Book of Achievements Page Fifty-five L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Pen Sketches of the Team Coach Rathman—Popular mentor who took entirely green basketball material anti turned out a fighting, aggressive team, which gave the league leaders plenty of trouble. Although he has been here only one year. Coach Rathman has established himself as a competent coach, stern disciplinarian, and a rattling good fellow. He also will coach football and track, and is sure to get the maximum results from the material at hand. Mr. Biery, Faculty Manager—Mr. Biery is the hard working and competent faculty manager of athletics. Himself an athlete of parts, he is admirably fitted for his position. His business trips are intermingled with flying journeys to Waynesburg. We wonder why? Dr. Walter Dic —The school owes a debt of gratitude to Dr. Dick it can never hope to repay. “Doc” unselfishly gave his time and services gratis to all athletic teams, and his great popularity among the boys is sufficient proof as to whether or not his work was appreciated. McManigle; Class: Sophomore—“Hooker - Diminutive forward, who was one of the league’s leading scorers; was given honorable mention in the all-league selections. He also plays the infield in baseball. Incidentally, he is the idol of the fair fans. Alcorn; Class: Junior—“Freddie —Freddie, in addition to being a high scoring forward, could drop back to guard on demand, and play a whale of a game. He supplied a great part of the fight and aggressiveness so apparent in the team play. Pitts; Class: Junior— Bullet —Pitts was captain and center; named on the all-league second team, ranking second only to the redoubtable Gamble, of Du Bois. His 190 pounds of bone and muscle were very active on the floor, and promise to be exceedingly evident on the gridiron, as well. Kroh; Class: Sophomore—“Firlie ’—Firl, although continually handicapped by injuries, played a sterling game at guard. His trick shooting makes him a well known figure over the circuit, and his long shots sink with deadly regularity. Byerly; Class: Junior— Gee —Previous to his injury, Forrest’s play at back-guard was exceptionally effective and clean. His coolness acted as a steadying influence on the rest of the boys. The man with Byerly dogging his heels usually suffered a poor evening. Alec. Deemer; Class: Senior— Ecl{ -—Fast, rangy and smart, Deemer was one of the most valuable men on the team. Our loss by his graduation is severe, for besides being a snappy forward, his track and football prowess will be sadly missed. Wallace; Class: Senior—“Doylie—Wallace was the gentleman who excelled in a pinch; supplying punch in a close game was his hobby. Although a forward by profession, Doyle could also play a nice game at center, as will be attested by Gamble, of Du Bois. Raybuc ; Class: Junior—“Barney —Raybuck was an aggressive, fighting guard, and a mighty tough man to buck up against. His weaving, swaying run is going to give plenty of trouble to a tackier on the gridiron. Amor Deemer; Class: Junior— Buz —Bus is the boy who thrilled the crowd with his beautiful long shots. Although continually handicapped by injuries since entering athletics, his luck is sure to change, and when it does, watch his smoke. Hugh Reilly; Class: Senior—“S y —“Irish” managed the team, and how! (But who manages his hat and necktie?) “His boys appreciated his earnest faithful devotion to his many duties, his rub downs and “call downs”—he was always on the spot to referee for practice, to give first aid, to assist and boost in every way possible from a managerial standpoint. The office of student manager is a new one in B. H. S. and is one of growing importance. Hugh has fulfilled carefully the trust and confidence the student body has placed in him. We are sorry to lose a manager who has so unselfishly given his support and loyalty to his boys and Mr. Rathman. Page Fifty-six The Year Book of Achievements Page Fifty'seven L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Interclass Basketball HE interclass tournament was marked by intense interest and hot rivalry, and was productive of a surprisingly good brand of basketball. Several of the games were very close, and when the smoke cleared, the Seniors were in proud possession of the hoys' silver loving cup. The tournament was conducted under the able direction of Mr. Rathman. The Interclass League was divided into two sections—the Senior League including Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores, and the Junior League including Freshmen and the Seventh and Eighth grades. The Seniors won the first League over the Juniors and Sophomores. The Freshmen won the second League over the Eighth grade and Seventh grade. In the elimination the Seniors defeated the Freshmen, and were entitled to a game with the Faculty, over whom they also triumphed. Some real stars were developed and a great deal of class spirit was displayed.

ADAMS' Page Fifty-nine L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Girls’ Basketball New interest has been aroused in the girls’ teams this year, owing to the fact that we have a new gym. It is to he hoped that in the future we will have a girls' varsity. These games held after school were preliminaries to the hoys' games. The attitude toward the games this year has been the best ever shown, the students turned out well and showed good spirit. Following is a record of the class games for the season: March 14. Seniors 44 Freshmen 18 March 18. Juniors 27 Freshmen 5 March 20. Seniors 27 Juniors 9 March 21. Seniors 24 Sophomores 25 March 21. Seniors 25 Freshmen 6 April 15. Juniors 12 Freshmen 11 Baseball The prospects for baseball are as yet somewhat uncertain, but in case that sport is placed on the spring program, the enthusiastic spirit and promising material on hand are sure to be productive of a good, fast team. Track High interest and good material marked the first practice with an unusually large number of candidates on hand. An interclass meet, and several other meets of great importance and fast competition are being lined up to test the mettle of the trackmen. While track has not been considered a major sport here for some time, we have every reason to believe that, beginning with this year, B. H, S. will be at or near the top at every meet, as of yore. Track meets have been scheduled as follows: Saturday, April 13—Cross Country at Sykesville. Saturday, April 27—Interclass meet at Brookville. Saturday, May 4—Dual meet with Punxsutawney High School at Brookville. Saturday, May 11—Jefferson County Athletic meet at Brookville. Friday, May 17—Clarion Norman meet, at Clarion. Saturday, May 25—Clearfield meet at Clearfield. Page Sixty The Year Book of Achievements Page Sixty'One L’Annuaire, Brookville High School Football ORE than sixty candidates reported to Mr. Rathman and Dr. Dick for physical examination and spring practice as a proof of the enthusiasm with which football has been revived at B. H. S. Football has been a minus . quantity here for twenty'two years, but the squad of huskies out this year fell to with gratifying spirit and aptness. Coach Rathman put the boys through a stiff course of fundamentals, and is pleased with the prospects for next year. Football is not a game to be learned in a year, but a heavy line seems to be in view, together with a fast backfield, so with a little luck, the boys will certainly make things interesting.
