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.

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. Th-anks is a word that can cover a multitude of meanings. Our class has many thanks 'to make. VVe wish to thank our parents for their sacrifices made in order to send us to school. XVe wish to thank the Carrolltown School Board Members for their part in en-a- bling us to get an education. We Wish to thank the teachers for their tireless efforts in helping us. We wish to thank -our classmates for their friendly attitude toward us.

To be 'the'grave old Senior, Has lo-st its charm for me. 1'd like to chuck my book of Trlg And -be a Soph so free. I try to walk so dignified, And stumble down the stairs, That's when I have humility Plus all the shares it.bears. I show all my authority I think t-hat it's my work, And then a teacher humbles me So once again I am 'thus shirl-ted. I tire of the stern life . W'4hich every Senior has to lead. I can't show I'm hos-sy, Or show everyone his own needs. I am the gravest old Senior Suppose-d to be you know, But tell me confidentially.. Where did' the privilege go? Donald Hopfer, '35. SENIORS. S-is for Seniors, the whole thirty-five E-is for efforts for which we all strive. N-is for nice, which we all are. I--is for into, no matter how far. 0-is for obedience, which we always were.

You've helped us throughout' these short years Now we leave shedding many tears, But wherever we chance to roam, We always say in a sad tone, That the teachers of '-'Thirty-Five For us many a time di-d strive. Pauline lVeber, 5315. - COMING DAYS. For most of us the school is o'er. You as-kgme what we went there for. VVas' 'till sixteen, we had to go. Against the law, we had no show. Are we sorry we stayed at school? Perhaps, from it we got a tool. That will help. maybe. later on, And give the light when there's no dawn. But from now on, no teachers be Around to as-k us-, Do you see? For us' no answers in a book, But comes tomorrow, we can't look. For us a new life is in store, For us the answers are no more. Just in ourselves our future lies. We can't depend on family ties. A Francis Lacsny, '35, 1-.l.......l..--l-- REGBET. I've heard -that one would be sorry.

Golden sun and silver dew, May pointed in the sky, Shall the earth's new garments buy, May will make the orchards bloom, And the blossoms' fine perfume Shall set all t-he honey -bees Murmuring among the trees. May will make the buds appear Likne a jewel, crystal clear, Mid the leaves upon the limb. lVhe.re the robin lits 'his hymll W ilay will make the wild flo-w'rs tell Where the shining snow flakes fell, Just as though each snow flakes' heart By some secret, magic art, Were transmitted to a flower In the sunlight and the shower' May will send forth graduates From the Carrolltown High School.

Four years, 0 friend! our feet have trod ' Th-at old familiar floor, , And trompled down that 'ere green sod, XVhic-h shall come up no more. Four years we've tried to do o-ur best, And thus we still go on, We'll never stop to take a rest Until we're dead and gone. David Lieb. '35, WVILVI' IS A FRIEND? When has a fellow go-t a friend? WVhat is meant by a. real true pal? Is he one on whom you depend Or is he one who'll steal yaur gal? When you're sick down, and on' your back NVhat is the one you have to call? ' Your friends were all away just tthen D'idn't know you were sick at all. WVhen your car is so broken down ' W'ho's the one to come to your help? YVhen it's ready to run again The car is full, you're squeezed your- self. XVhen you find yourself in a jail After treating all your -best pals Which one of them will go your ball? They'll keep you there to steal your gal. , Every fellow needs. a true friend, A pal with whom to come and go, When is a. pal a real, true friend? That is what I would like to know. Ruth Fox, '35. .l. .l-ii A FRAIEND. A true friend is really a true treasure Which cannot be counted by a measure. He stands by us when we have been deceived And .he tries his best 'to have us re- lieved. , He tries to make us happy all the day, And even drives the wor1d's dull cares away. It is .really true that our life depends Upon our wide variety of friends. Sanoma Cooney, '3-5. ,- i1.1.1.-.1-1 A. BOY'S BEST FRIEND. Be honest lad, in word and deed, In all you say and do, , Treat others in your walk of life As you would have them treat you. D-on't steal another's precious time, Or blot a spotless name, You may not think that's stealing, 'Tis dishonest just the same. Be true--there's nothing half so grand, As chara-cter of truth, Let never trace of falsehood stain, The glory of your youth, Let every thought your harbor be As clear and pure as. day, Sincerlty of purpose gleam In every word you say. Anna Kathryn Kaylor, '35.
