Y, 1935 SENIOR CLASS ECHOES PAGE SIX CLASS PROPHECY CLASS PROPIIECY, Last week I received the following invitation: Le Comte De Casanova Requests Your Presence 1 At a Grand Masquerade Ball To Be Given in the Realm of Pluto September Twenty-sixth Nineteen Hunderd Fifty. V Needless to say, the invitation intrig- ued me and I went, disguised as an angel. The 'palatial home of Mr. T. S. Ames was ablaze with light. On the door was carved, Leave all h-ope behind, ye who -enter here. In answer to my ring, the butler ush-ered me inside. As the evening progressed, I noticed some very familiar faces- among Mr. Ames' staff of French maids and gov- ernesses. Revelry freigned supreme until mid- night, Promptly on the stroke of twelve great gongs called the visitors to the Devil's Tribunal to account for their doings and their sins of the past fif- teen Years. Mephistopheles, in this flaming re- galla, was none other than the Honor- able George Yun-ko, famous financierg and his stern commands were enforced by his associates. Le Comte De Casanova was the first victim called before the tribunal to account for his- sins-he vigorously denied -having committed any, and the soft intonations of this Voice immedia- tely proved him to be none other than Joseph Harrigan ren-owned-fish mong- er. Joseph immediately demanded trial by jury of his own selection. He impanel- ed Xvillium Stoltz, international flag- pole sitter: Virginia Slmrbuuglx, Flori- da's peerless beach comber: Donald Slmx-lmugh, Port Orange 1nan-about- town: 1V:u-ren Link, President National Associ-ation of Bachelorsg Francis Lllesny, General Vifindjammer of the National Guards: Olene Conrad, well- known fashion designerg Cluir Spring- er, president Perpetual Sleepers, Inc.: xx7Ill'l'Cll Nairn, Holy Roller Evangelistg Snnomn Cooney, cosmetic quecng Cath- erine I-Inn-igwnn, city docl-74 mastery and John Stich, celebrated soap box ora- tor. Mephistopheles appointed the law firm -of Shannon, Munson and Leach to act as prosecuting attorney, and imme- diately Mr. Joseph Harrigan. counter- ed by :engaging Ithe noted criminal lawyer, Catherine Bearer, as attorney for the defense. Joseph Ilurrigun was charged with temporary insanity and impersonation of Pauline NVQ-ber, poetess extraordin- ary. The first witness f-or the plaintiff was Ruth Fox, gold-digger of the boardwalk, who stated that the defend- ant said the p1aintiff's pen was rusty. At this remary pandemonium broke loose, for in the court room were many friends of the plaintiff. Among these were Annu Eckem-ode, New York socie- ty belle: Orlenn Eckenrode, beautiful wife of David Lieb, athletic coach of Brenaug Kvxnlter Bertram. editor of Ad- vice to the Lovelorn : and Florence Ertter, Screenla.nd's Queen of Hearts. The attorney for the defense received the court'-s permission to put Dorothy Eckenrolle on the stand. Under ques- tioning sh-eadlnitted she had just di- vorced Donnld Hopfer, American light- weight champion, so that she might marry Pnul Slmrlmugln, the brilliant young airplane designer. She told of the defendants honesty and trut-hful- ness at all times and gave as an ex- ample an incident of fifteen years be- fore when Mr. Hopfer paid a debt -of six cents to Puul, n-ow the world's premier airman, because his conscience -hurt him: whereupon t-he judge wept and immediately acquitted Joseph Hur- Pigllll of all charges. At-this time the bailiff said that the next feature would be a costume prize dance. after which everyone would un- mask. After the unmasklng prizes were awarded to Frank Ruffn, the jounral- ist, for his COStll1'ne as Cupid: to Dor- othy Amhrisco, New York's biggest paid private secretary, for fher appear- ance as Julietg tollobert Campbell, the railroad miagnate, for representing Love's Young Dream, and to Miss Thelma Regan for 'her splendid por- trayal of The Dying Girl. Just then Mephistopheles demanded music and the grand opera quartet, all of them grand opera stars, sang fo.r us. They sang well, but Hilda Fnrulmugh president of the Publix Theatres, Inc., and Alice Sluwlrxulgll. 'her friend and business rival, offered to show us some real entertainment and they ,intro-duced the Tumbling Team , Broadway's lat- est sensationg of course we all knew Helen VVGKZQI and Helen Lnclmey, who doesn't? To -cap the evening, Ruth Fox and Donnlll Slmrlmugrh announced they were to be married then and thiere. 'Rever- end Jerome Muck, performed the Cel-e- mony and Helen Llluer, the vv-o-rlid'S richest Woman, gave the bride away. For appearing in the guise of an angel, the court charged the prophet with false pretenses, sailing under false colors and base misrepresentation. CSigned and Sealed? , THE VEILED PROPHET. Anna Kathryn Kaylor, '3b. SPRING FEVER. Spring is here again, and with it, what do think it brought? Well if you would be in the Problems of Demo- cracy class you would soon find out. They call it Spring Fever , but I think it's Love in Bloom. Clair Springer hasn't been himself for the past three Weeks. If he is not Day D1'9Rllllllg, , he is Sleeping , both of which make not only teachers but the students jump to conclusions. The Fever is spreading slow but sure. Last repo-rts are as follows: Seven stricken. One in coma, with hopes of recovery, and six cases not serious and on their way to recovery. Bill Stoltz, '36 THANIQS.

I-Iipps Mr. Elmer M. Luther. Catherine A. Bearer, '35, SALUTATORY ADDRESS tContinued from the first page? portunities do not come to all: that would be impossible. But it is equally true that many fail to see of to use what chances they have. They fancy that something just ahead or out of reach is the essential means of their success. 'A sword of keener steel or the blue blade of the king's son is not at hand, so they go down to defeat. Then along comes a sharp-eyed soldier in the battle of competition, seizes the nearest weapon, the unused opportuni- ty, and ac.hieves his ambition. We sincerely hope that we shall all be at home when Opportunity knocks, at our door, calls us on the telephone. or otherwise manifests an interest in' us. May we reoo-gnize him, receive him warmly, and make the best possible use of his presenceg and may We never neglect him. Once more permit me to welcome you as our guests on this, our last ap- pearance as Seniors of the Carrolltown High School. When next we gather' here we, too, shall be'guests, assem- bled to wish Godspeed to some other Senior Class, as ambitionus and happy as we. To-night we trust that our 'hos- pitality may be as gracious and as pleasing to you as we would have it. May you obtain as much satisfaction and delight from being here as we have in entertaining you on our last ap- pearance as the Senior Class of 1935. Hilda Farabaugh, '315. SENTINIENT. VVhen we, the Class of '35,'.reallze that our high school days are drawing us nearer and nearer to graduation day, weqregret the fact of leaving our teachers whom we have learned to love so dear. NVe are leaving all our class-. mates, and entering upon the wo.rld's broad field of life. Yet, how m-any' times have we not been tempted to stop school when we must spend our time doing a note-book or boo-k-report when we wanted to be out having a. g-ood time? Now 'the long looked for time, grad- uation, is here. We would love to ling- er a while with the teachers and fel- low-classmates of whom we have grown so fond, but the time has come when we must say farewell to our .high school. Helen Wetzel, 3l5. Collective. Professor: Give me three collective nouns. A Student: F1ypaper, wastebasket and vacuum cleaner.

PAGE SEVEN SENIOR CLASS ECHOES MAY, 193 V1 u LASS HISTORY CLASS HISTORY. As each petal falls from the rose, after it has completed its mission of spreading beauty and fragrance, so each member of the class of 193-5 must leave its stem, the high school, not to wither and die, as the rose petals, but to go on, each to a separate destinyg each to a. single niche that has been carved in this great world to fit each of them. i No longer shall we have the guiding hand of our teachers to aid us on the upward climb. We have come to the crossroads, from which IIIZIHY roads lead. XVe must each choose a path, and trod that path alone. Let us go back four years. The rc- miniscence takes us to our first terri- fying experience of the unknown-our Freshman year. We had at the beginning Of Our Freshmen year a class Of forty-nine. It was in this year we were, as all the Freshmen are, shy and bashful. Tihen we soon outgretv that stage and be- came, as people told us, gay little Freshmen. The most perplexing assignment our Freshmen year, whi-ch caused many tears to be shed and headaches to he suffered, was our booki reports. In science class we performed many in- teresting experiments and received many thrills delving into the unknown. The first- social event of our four years in high school was when the Seniors of 19.31, held their annual ba.- zaar and permitted us to sell confetti. Another thing happened which We remembered throughout our four years of high school. On February 22g 1931, when the whole United States celebrat- ed the bi-centennial of George Wasil- ington's birthday, we, the Freshmen. presented the school with a reproduc- tion of a hand-painting of this great man. After this the days sped quickly by and soon we were Sophomores. It seemed almost too good to be true that we had successfully passed through the trying stage of being the baby class of the school. We felt grown up even though we were still under-classmen. Again several classmates dropped by the wayside, while others joined us and took the formers' places among our ranks. This year our boys began to take an active part in the athletic activities of the high school. A great many wont out for football and basket ball, and both teams were successful. After mid-term examinations were over and spring was in the air, the whole class took several field trips with Mr. Flynn. These field trips re- sulted in many beautiful Biology note books being made. The days fairly flew, and soon we found ourselves under the guiding hand of Miss Sharbaugh, our Junior homo- room teacher. One afternoon, shortly after the be- ginning of our school term, several ring salesmen visited our school to see the Juniors. Of course we thought we were big by this time and it delighted us when we had an opportunity to select our class ring. After Christmas our rings arrived and we were very much pleased with them. Two members of the Junior Class, Catherine Bearer and Anna Kathryn Kaylor, brought fame to us by being chosen for parts in the Senior Class play of that year. Our Junior year came to a close and we passed into the dignified! atmos- phere of the Senior room. At the beginning of this year, Jo- seph' Emericik, Richard Brophy and Ethel Ra-ndall left our ranks. Our class was then composed of thirty-five pupils. Many interesting things have happened during this, our last year in high school. A number of the Seniors ordered caps, pennants and a few, al- so orderedt class pins. In November of last year we held a bazaar. The bazaar proved to be a financial and social success. This year the Commercial Geograpphy Class did extensive research work in the field of food and clothing products raised in the leading countries of the world. The second year Spanish Class also made projects in Spanish. Each member of the class made a survcy of a South American country. T-he re- sulting projects in the Commercial Geography Cla-ss and Spanish Class not only showed that the students had mastered a difficult assignment, but had acquired a definite knowledge of the subject matter. The artistic pro- jects submitted by the students also gave rise to the thought that beauty could be applied to the learning. Our tenor of the class, Joseph Harr- igan, brought honor to our school by winning frist place in the Forensic League at Ebensburg, in t-he semi-fi- nals at Penn State, and third place in the finals at Oil City. He also is quite an accomplished radio singer. We, the Seniors, through the kind permission of Mr. Maucher and the School Board, took a trip to Ebens- burg, where we visited the Court House and Jail. VVe were very fortu- nate in hearing a, whole case, which taught us the lesson that we should never quarrel over chickens. Some of the Seniors participated in the State Scholarship examinations at Eliensburgb, Every Senioir wrote a composition titled, How Youth Can Serve American Citizenship, which was also considered for another scholarship given by the American Legion. Senior day was held on May 16th. The Seniors took charge of all classes and study halls. In the afternoon at 2:00 o'-clock, We held our Senior Day Progrma, in which all Seniors partici- pated. And now four years have sped by and- we have reached our goal, gradu- ation Since we have Co-operated with our teachers, we are ready to try out our wings. WVe are prepared to go out into the world to meet and overcome any difficulties we may find on the road to success. It is our hope and prayer that we find our wayas pleas- ant as the four years we have spent in Carrolltown High School. I Florence Ertter, '3'5. , HON. J. ROSS HORNE PASSES AWVAY. J. Ross Horne, 56, former member of the Legislature, veteran school teacher and prominent in the business, politi- cal, religious and civic life of Johns- town, died unexpectedly at 12i:30' o'clock Sunday afternoon at his residence, 13 Irene Street, Eighth Ward-, Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The Hon. J. Ross Horne was to have given the Commencement Address to the Class of M935 at their Commence- ment Exerci-ses, May 2531-d. The Senior Class, together with the faculty and members of the student b-ody of Carrolltown High School wish to express their deepest sympathy to members of Mr. Horne's family. 4++++++++++++++++++++++++ are COMPLZIMENTS 2 or i JOSEPH v. as i MAUCHERJR.
