Seventeen 5EDUE11E THE FACULTY DURING our sojourn here, our faculty have become endeared to us, in many ways. Each member of the faculty has played a part in making our college life more complete. We like to think of them as a group of outstanding and efficient leaders; guiding our thoughts along proper channels; inspiring us to further mental, physical, and social activities; and upholding us in all our ideals and standards. Our attainments as teachers will eventually de- pend upon our faithfulness to the teaching and inspira- tion, which the faculty members have given us. There- fore no greater praise can be bestowed upon them than is found in these words of Carlyle: They have been wise to instruct us and assist us in the business of daily, virtuous living, Eighteen 5[DUEiiE AMABEL LEE RALSTON ELIZABETH KEITHAN.

We came here, thirsting for further knowledge and with a true desire to improve ourselves in every way. Per- haps our chief aim has always been, to be able to compete efficiently with our fellow students, and to be able to play the game of life fairly and squarely. Our environ- ment, while on the campus, has provided us with a back- ground, which, we believe, will enable us to reach our goal. We feel that we are greatly indebted to our school. We shall try in our lives after graduation, to live up to the ideals of the school and of our efficient instructors; and hence, in our small way, repay Clarion State Normal School for her efforts in. our behalf. Twenty Six 5[ouEi[E MARIAN AMERICUS Clarion, Pa. Travel Club Franklin Literary Society Mrs. Americus is one of our most loyal members and hardest workers.

Demosthenian Club Owl Club Track Team Foot-ball Manager ' 26 Y. M. C. A. Cabinet Minstrel ' 27 Glee Club Waiter ' s Club One seldom hears him speak, but when one does, he hears a melodious voice.

HELEN AFFOLTER Parker ' s Landing Franklin Literary Society Travel Club Your eyes are your fortune, Helen! Helen is witty and lively, takes the world as it comes, and never goes out to meet it.

We are glad we have her here, because we need her sunshine and her giggles. IDA BORING Franklin Literary Society Who is this dark-eyed, dignified member of our class, who is very seldom seen to smile? It is Ida Boring. Ida looks very serious as ap- pearances would indicate. Ida always seems to have herself well under control, as she is never in a hurry, nor excited. She says her ambition is to be a teacher, but we are rather dubious aliout this statement. ELIZABETH BARCLAY Vandergrift; Pa. Y. W. C. A. Travel Club Current Events Club Good nature is worth more than know- ledge and honor to persons who possess it, and certainly to everybody who dwells with them, so far as mere happiness is concerned. Elizabeth evidently believes in this state- ment if we are to judge her by her sunny dis- position. Twenty FAghl 5[QUEllE ELIZABETH BUCHAN Titusville, Pa. Student Council Treasurer Franklin Literary Society Y. W. C. A. Cabinet Travel Club Why can ' t she be good? We know she likes to talk and laugh too well. Elizabeth takes no stock in that old saying children should be seen and not heard. She would rather be both. However, she can be serious sometimes, especial- ly when she is conducting services in Y. VIOLET BUSSARD Reynoldsville, Pa. Travel Club Glee Club Art Club Y. W. C. A. Cabinet Basket Ball Hockey This fair-haired, blue-eyed miss came to us in the last year of our school life. Since Violet stays down town, and does not believe in telling all she knows, we are not very well acquainted with her personal affairs. However, we do know that she thoroughly enjoys disagreeing with the other students in Health and Hygiene. MARY CAMPBELL Vandergrift, Pa. Bancroft Literary Society Y. W. C. A.

Glee Club Cheer leader Basket-ball Travel Club Journalism Club Operetta ' 28 Did she ever have a care? If so, no one has heard about it. Emma is pep personified, which fact makes her an able cheerleader. From her witty saying we are prone to think that she reads College Humour. BIRD CARSON Clarion, Pa. Y. M. C. A. Football Squad Demosthenian Society Basket-ball Manager ' 27, ' 28 Minstrel ' 27 Sequelle Staff Class President ' 28 Bird is our able president. He has many talents, chief among which is his ability to ex- press himself in song. As a leader of the Journal- ism Club he is especially efficient. Recently he has secured employment in the office of register and recorder, where all Seniors and members of the faculty may now secure marriage licenses free of charge. FRANCES CLARK Franklin Literary Society This young maiden, who came to us from DuBois, is rather serious minded and is often asked why she looks so sober. Nevertheless, she is interested in having a good time if it does not conflict with her studies. As a student Frances is cry conscientious, and can be found in the library almost anytime. S?

MARION COLLETT Clarion, Pa. Demosthenian Society Sequelle Staff Y. M. C. A. Journalism Club Orchestra Scout Masters Course Travel Club Minstrel Show One need only look at the list of activities in which Marion participated, to get an idea of the sort of student he is. Marion is never seen idle, as he believes in the old ma.xim that the more one puts into a thing, the more he will get out of it. BERTHA CONNOR DiiBois, Pa. Glee Club Girl ' s Quartette ' 28 Little, bright, and quick as a flash. Do you know why she is a lyric soprano? Because such a voice suits her so very well. Her pleasant and attractive manner serves to endear her to her companions. Thirty One 5EDU[il[ JEAN DIBB Neia Bethlehem, Pa.

In fact, she is one of the shining lights of Miss Nair ' s English class. Who knows? Some day she may be taking Miss Nair ' s place in C. S. N. S. FLOSSIE DOWNEY Kelletlvilk, Pa. Art Club Y. W. C. A. Flossie has an old fashioned name, but she is a very modern girl. We never have seen her down-hearted, but she is many times very- thoughtful looking. Of course, we cannot won- der at that when we know that her better half is far away, for Flossie is married. EDNA EVANS Blawnox, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Senior Play Dramatic Club Student Council Franklin Literary Society Dramatic Club Plays Has anybody seen our Edna? Everybody in Becht Hall has seen her. Not only do they find in her a true friend and willing worker; but every- one on the campus knows that she is one girl who will do what she promises.

Sometimes she is happy, and sometimes she is blue; but, she is always interesting. The possession of a per- sonality that never grows monotonous is Mild- red ' s. Thirty Five 5[DUEll[ ELVIRA HEASLEY Franklin Literary Society Student Government Y. W. C. A. Elvira is another of our quiet girls. She believes in the saying little girls should be seen and not heard. Although Elvira is quiet, she is full of fun, and is always ready for a good time. LEONE HART Ellwood City, Pa. Y. W. C. A. Cabinet Dramatic Club Dramatic Club Plays Bancroft Literary Society Leone ' s one worry is to keep her hair curly. However, we think that this is the only worry she has, Giggling is Leone ' s chief failing. We find her very lovable. EVELYN GREENE Irvona, Pa. Bancroft Literary Society Y. W. C. A. Student Council Travel Club Evelyn is kindness and common sense personified. Since her ability to lead is combined with her many other favorable characteristics, we think Evelyn quite an admirable type of girl. Evelyn may be shy, but a young man follows in her train. Thirty Six 5[DUEllE EMMA HICKINBOTTOM Verona, Pa. Glee Club Hockey Vested Choir Basketball Y. W. C. A. Franklin Literary Society Minstrel Show If anyone is blue, she has to be around Emma for a very few minutes until she has for- gotten all her troubles.

Student Council Dramatic Club Current Events Club Travel Club Small but lively, cheerful, and a splendid leader is Naomi. She has enough pleasing qual- ities to cause us to say she is a possessor of it. MARY HELD Franklin, Pa. Bancroft Literary Society Art Club Y. W. C. A. Travel Club Hockey Dainty, demure Mary came to us from Franklin. Friendliness is one of her greatest charms. She seems very mild, but on better acquaintance we decide that appearances are deceiving. They say that good things come in small packages. This is true of Mary, for one cannot find a better friend, nor a better sport than she. Thirty Seven 5[QUEllE ANNIE HILEMAN Red Bank, Pa. She has a most distinctive speech and personality. She is practical and studious, and eager for discussion, always supporting her views with strong arguments. ARLENE HORNER Conifer, Pa. Ba.seball Travel Club Y. W. C. A. Arlene would have us think her a quiet mouse, but once we know her we decide that still water runs deep. We consider Arlene quite fortunate because her father is a doctor and she can be ill without fear of the cost. Arlene says that she enjoys teaching school because she likes to associate with bright people. VIOLET JOHNS Brookville, Pa. Perhaps many of us would profit if we we were as efficient as Violet. She is studious, but she always finds time to smile. Were there ever eyes bluer than Violet ' s? - Thirty Eight SEDUEliE HELEN HOCH Chicora, Pa. Helen came to C. S. N. S. after gradu- ating from tfie National Park Seminary. From all appearances, she has a strong affection for her home, as she goes home every week end. We wonder if she gets homesick to see her Mother and Dad, or if perchance there might be a stronger attraction than they. SARAH LEONARD Punxsutawney, Pa. Art Club Travel Club Y. W. C. A. Sarah came to us during the second semes- ter of our Senior year. She seems to be very much interested in Educational Measurements, for Mr. Becker always knows on whom to call when the rest of the class are not able to recite. We have not been able to find anything out about Sarah ' s personal affairs. We feel sure, however, that she does not have her snappy eyes for noth- ing. lOLA HAYES Oil City, Pa. Franklin Literary Society Glee Club Y. W. C. A. We hear supressed giggles behind a closed door, We know that lola Hayes is around, for she is the champion giggler of Becht Hall. lola has a weakness for pressing dresses.

Fifty Six SEOuEilE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY To write a history that would do justice either to the meekest or to the most illustrious of classes, would be quite an im- possibility. It would give us unbounded pleasure to be able to trace the personal history of each member of our worthy class! but the lack of adequate space and the number of members in the class of 1928 make such an undertaking impossible. Perhaps we have not accomplished deeds that will help to solve international difficulties, or to settle the immigration problem, but at least we have tried to radiate a spirit of cheerfulness about us at all times. We sincerely hope that such an attitude may have an influence upon future classes. The talents and accomplishments of the class of ' 28 are as diverse and numerous as the members of the class. These talents serve to make our class one of the most individualistic of classes. But let us not forget that it has taken our Junior selves as well as our Senior selves to prove our abilities. We have found that there is a different place for every talent and ambition. While it may not take much more than studiousness for some one to do his reference work, it takes pure muscle, ingenuity, and bravery to carry out such a program as was witnessed on Senior Skip Day in the year of 1927. While it takes actual talent on the part of a selected few to make possible our annual class play, it takes actual executative ability on the part of a few to make possible our be- loved Sequelle . While it takes one type of presence of mind to speak before an audience, it takes another type to guard your man on the basket ball floor. We have worked hard and enthusiastically for the better- ment of the athletics, student government, and all social and re- ligious organizations in connection with our school. We have learn- ed how to surmount obstacles with success. Our minds have been as fields, that have undergone the various methods of cultivation, and have been sown with valuable seed. The result of this cultivation rests within the future. With the adequate background, which has been developed during our life on the campus, we near our graduation day with a mind set to do our part in carrying out the work set before us as our share in playing the game fairly.

Sixty Three 5E0UE11E STUDENT COUNCIL THE Student Goveniinent is composed of all the women students of the dormitory. After electing a president and secretary they regularly elect a student council, whose duty it is to act as the governing body for the organization. Thus the Student Council representing the Student Government governs the dormitory. The Council acts as a mediatory between the students and the faculty when difficult stu- dent problems have to be solved. The officers of the Student Government are also members of the Student Council, which is composed of twelve members, nine Seniors and three Juniors. OFFICERS STUDENT GOVERNMENT President,.

By means of the Big Sister campaign it brings the girls of the school into a closer relationship and makes each feel that others have an interest in her. The General aim of this organization is to develop Christian leadership by means of high ideals and actual Christian work. This organization annually sends delegates to the State Y. W. C. A. Conference at Eaglesmere, who bring back many suggestions that add enthusiasm to its work. Each student is given an opportunity to take part in the exercises and to develop a certain leader- ship in Christian work. The association meets every Wednesday evening. The meetings this year have been unusually in- teresting and instructive, and the attendance deserves special commendation. The programs have been ably directed by the cabinet and the faculty advisor, Mrs. Amabel Lee Ralston.

The girls who compose it are to be congratulated for their fine spirit of response to the work and the excellent results achieved. This group appears on the platform each Sunday evening at Vesper services and helps to make each service impressive by their beautiful songs. The group also made several excursions to nearby communities to contribute their songs of inspiration and good cheer. Sixty Six SEDUEllE GLEE CLUB THE Glee Club plays a very important part in our school life. If at any time the members are needed, they are ready to help, and it is from their number that our vested choir is taken. They also played a larger part in the Christmas Pageant and helped to make it such a success. Feeling that we owe a great deal to the Glee Club and Mr. Sarig who conducts it, we take this opportunity for thanking them. Sixty Seven imt TRAVEL CLUB THE Travel Club is one of the new organizations which came into existence this year. The object of this club is to promote interest in travel and to become acquainted with methods of conducting an extra curricular activity of this type in the school room. The work of this club has consisted of studying the worthwhile scenes and histor- ical places of interest, beginning with local regions and gradually radiating outward until the entire world has been included in ihe study. This has been one of the most popular organizations of the school this year. The work has been very ably conducted by the following officers under the leader- ship of till ' faculty advisor, Miss Elizabeth Keithan: President Myra McFadden Vice President Isabel Pryor Secretary Alice Killeen Treasurer Mildred Parsons Sixty Eight 5[QUEllE ART CLUB The Art Club of Clarion Normal was organized, primarily for those who were interested in the subject itself, and who enjoyed knowing more of Art by actually design- ing and working out color schemes for various practical purposes. Through the skillful leadership of Miss Hazel Sandford, the Art instructor, the interest has approximated a maximum, and the membership has increased by more than half the original enrollment. Interesting problems relating to art are discussed in the weekly meetings. Any- one, whether a member or not, who appreciates and likes this particular type of work, has been permitted to attend the meetings. The work that has been finished by the members of the Art Club is done for the benefit of the individual student. Each completed article belongs to the designer, and is useful as well as attractive. Exhibitions have displayed the accumulated products to the student body and to the public. Sixty Nine 5EQUE11E YOUNG MEN ' S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION SINCE it has universally been accepted that everyone should be affiliated with some religious organization, our Young Mens ' Christian Association was organized to meet this need for the men of the school. The members of this group meet every Wednesday evening in their room in Music Hall. The meetings have been well attended and much interest has been shown. The programs have consisted of addresses and discussions concerning problems of life both in school and out. We feel sure that much good has been accomplished. The above work has been directed by the following officers under the leadership of Mr. C. F. Becker.

Al- though the number of members has been rather small, the group has performed some outstanding work. As the name indicates the purpose of the Society is to sponsor interest in debating and to learn methods of conducting debates. The work has been motivated by the devel- opment of competition between our Debating Society and that of the Slippery Rock State Teachers ' College. Much interest in the work has been shown by the entire student body. The work has been ably directed by Professor James R. Huston. Seventy One 5[DUEll[ Miss Oliver ' s Dollars. Seventy Two 5[0UEil[ JOURNALISM CLUB THE Journalism Club was organized for the purpose of interesting the students in the subject of Journalism. This organization has had a very successful year and is one in which much interest has been shown. In the regular meetings which are held the second and fourth Mondays of each month, Journalism as a profession and as an art has been discussed. Men who have had training and experience in this profession have spoken before the club on topics relating to Journalism. Moving pictures have been presented for the purpose of showing the work of a newspaper office. Interesting reports on journalism have been made at each meeting. At the first meeting the following officers were elected: President Bird Carson Vice President Grace Gemberling Secretary William Flanagan Treasurer Grace Shorts Seventy Three 5[0UEil[ DRAMATIC CLUB OUR Woman ' s Dramatic Club under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Edgar has had a very successful year.

It has now become one of the annual affairs of the school. All the mothers were invited to be the guests of their sons and daughters, as well as guests of the school. On Saturday morning the mothers visited the different classes. In the afternoon they were invited to inspect the buildings and equip- ment of the school. From 3 to 6 P. M. Mrs. Steele entertained the mothers in her home in Music Hall. In the evening the Senior Class presented their class play, The Goose Hangs High. On Sunday morning, April 10th, a very impressive service was held in the chapel, where Rev. S. S. Clark of Franklin, Pa. delivered the sermon. On Sunday afternoon the mothers were entertained with a radio concert in Becht Hall. These days were made memorable by the presence of our mothers, and the occasion was probably the most impressive at Clarion Normal School during the whole year. THE HALLOWE ' EN PARTY The Hallowe ' en Party at C. S. N. S. is an annual event that is looked forward to with enthusiasm and expectation. The party that was held October 31, 1927 was to us, the best one ever held at the Normal School. This Hallowe ' en Party was the first big party that we attended after coming to school, and many of us felt that we were mak- ing our debut into the society of the normal school. The party was preceded by a ghost walk. It made one ' s blood run cold to see those ghastly forms, threading their way over the dark paths of the campus, and to hear their terrible shrieks and groans. After the walk we went into the social room, which was appropriately decorated with witches, black cats, jack-o-lanterns, and every other gruesome object imaginable. The motly crowd was a sight to behold. The persons present ranged from Little Boy Blue to th e Prince of Wales. We, as Juniors, entered the room with fear and trembling, for we had heard all sorts of rumors of what would happen to us. However, the evening passed with- out any serious trouble. Prizes were given for the best costume, and for the best dancers. We went home feeling that this Hallowe ' en party was the best we ever attended. Seventy Six 5[0UE1[E SEMESTER RECEPTION At the beginning of each semester, in accordance with an old custom, the Y. W. C. A. gives a semi-annual reception. It is usually held on the first Saturday night of the new semester and is a time when the faculty, old students, and new students greet each other. The program for the evening, which is arranged by the social chairman of the Y. W. C. A., is always very enjoyable. Our principal and various members of the facul- ty give interesting talks. Often musical numbers and addresses are given by members of the student body. When the program has been completed, the remainder of the even- ing is usually spent in dancing and playing games. JUNIOR PROM Was there ever in the history of C. S. N. S., such an exciting time as February 18, 1927, the night of the Junior Prom? For a month previous to this time, practically all the conversation one heard was, Whom are you going to invite to the prom? Are you going to get a new dress for the prom? Is your program full? To us, the Junior Prom stands out as one of the most eventful social affairs of our Normal School life. It was the first party that we had planned without the help of the Seniors, and we were all anxious that it would be a success. The decorations of blue and yellow, made one think of a beautiful garden, although it was snowing and blowing outside. The dance began v ith a grand march led by our class president. An orchestra from DuBois furnished the beautiful strains of fox trots and waltzes, that carried the guests along, until the wee hours of the morning. ALUMNI DAY Alumni day was observed Saturday, June 4, 1927, during Commencement Week. At this time many old friends greeted each other for the first time in many years. In the morning registration took place and also the meetings of the different classes which were scheduled for reunions. In the afternoon, the students of the Clarion Normal School presented a part of their spring festival in the chapel. At three o ' clock, memorial exercises were held in honor of the late Dr. J. G. Becht, one of Clarion ' s most beloved principals. At this time there was unveiled in Becht Hall a picture of him, in who ' s honor the woman ' s dormitory had been recently renamed. The Alumni banquet was held in the Normal School dining room at eight o ' clock in the evening. There were approximately four hundred and twelve alumni present, representing classes from 1892 to 1926. Our principal. Dr. Steele, acted as toast master, introducing many excellent and interesting speakers. Among the guests present were Mrs. J. G. Becht and her son Howell M. Becht of Harrisburg, who were prominent in the day ' s activities. In spite of the inclement weather, the spirits of the Alumni were not dampened during the whole day. Many of our visitors left Clarion with a renewed love of their Alma Mater, and a determination to return for the Alumni banquet of 1928. Seventy Seven 5[0UEllC The Heart of a Clown, Seventy Eight SEouEiiE That particular phase of school activity so essential to show our place in the world of physical progress. Seventy Nine Imt Girl ' s School Athletics Eighty 5E0UE11E ■W I J. O. JONES, Coach N spite of many handicaps, our new athletic men- tor has shown Clarion that he is a commendable coach. Jones had a small football squad to work with, but he placed a scrappy eleven on the field that proved a menace to any opposition. Acting as a teacher, he taught the game of football from the ground up. Many boys who came to Clarion last September knew little or nothing about the game. Each participant was treated alike, and by Thanks- giving time they were so versed in that particular game, that little was left to be learned of the funda- mentals. One season will not make a star , but to Jones goes the credit of giving these earnest and in- tent learners, their initial first-class instruction. Jones, in basket-ball proved his worth, although his particular brand of game was new in this vicinity, making it a difficult task to introduce and make effect- ive in one season. Coach Jones was well liked throughout both the football and basketball seasons and we hope he con- tinues the excellent work that he has started. Eighty One 5[QUEllE ; ti; E o « e; 4-1 5[DUEli[ CLARION ' S GRIDIRON THE football team at the Clarion State Normal School labored under many diffi- culties throughout the entire season. When J. O. Jones, our new mentor issued a call for candidates he found that in no way could he form a squad large enough for two teams — thus the first big handicap. Our athletic field had been remodeled and we had no home grounds to pracitce on — our second handicap. In spite of these two big handicaps, we had a fairly successful season. The heaviest schedule that the Purple and Gold had played for years, had been arranged and it was up to the gallant warriors, few as they were, to do or die. Two games were won and five lost, but no player who entered a game ever admitted defeat or quit fighting until the final whistle had blown. Mr. Jones built a team that will never be forgotten in sport history at Clarion State Normal School. Ray Kline, a deserving man who suffered a broken arm in the Edinboro game was unable to appear before the camera for individual honors. Ray played in the first five games at tackle and he was greatly missed when he was forced from the game. He was equally effective on both offense and defense and he was deserving of the C he now wears. Bird Carson, one of last year ' s lettermen was dealt a costly blow in the Indiana game. He received a dislocated elbow and a broken arm and was forced to sit on the sidelines throughout the rest of the season. Undoubtedly he would have made a good record in the past season, had he been able to continue his work in the back-field. Eighty Three 5E0UE11E ACCOUNT OF GAMES PLAYED CLEARFIELD 13 CLARION After three weeks of practice, our squad, twenty strong, boarded the Pierce Arrow ' Bus and started to Clearfield, where a real tough opener was to be played. And it was played. The Clearfield team, under the fine coaching of Tuffy McMillan proved to have the edge on our boys in experience, but in nothing else. The final score was 13 — 0, against us. The breaks were not with us and we had to taste defeat in our first game. Nevertheless, it was an excellent game, and was worth the defeat since it afforded wonderful experience for our lads. But six of our regulars had ever played before. CLARION 18 ASHLAND The second game was an easy one for our boys. Ashland High School was met and defeated on foreign soil. The final score was 18 — 0, but this does not indicate how easily our warriors marched through the big high school team. In this game, Stranges showed the crowd some fine broken-field running, gaining ground every time he carried the ball. The entire team played quite well in this game, particularly the line, which proved a tower of strength against the huskies of Ashland High. GROVE CITY RESERVES 26 CLARION The third game resulted in an overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Grove City Reserves. Unusually poor sporting tactics were displayed on the part of the College Eleven; the team was coached, captained, and managed by Bill Crebbs, a man who had played four years of varsity football for Grove City and who was ineligible for further competition. The final score was Grove City 26 — Clarion — 0. INDIANA 51 CLARION The fourth game was the only game in which our lads were badly beaten. The Indiana .State Teacher ' s College came out on top of a 51 score featured by the excellent playing of the entire Indiana team. Our boys were too light to hold the Indiana team in check and were completely outclassed. The first half was not a walk away, ending 12 — 0, but in the second half our defense crumbled and the College boys walked all over us for tf)urliflowns at will. Eighty four SEouEilE CALIFORNIA 32 CLARION The Ambridge Excursion and the California game will long be remembered. This was our biggest trip and most enjoyable, although a terrible exhibition of football was made in the sea of mud , supposedly the California football field. Our boys fought hard to ward off defeat, but to no avail, since the California team was superior in weight and experience. The final score was 32 — 0. CLARION 26 FRANKLIN The final game was played against another traditional rival — Franklin. This was the only game in which the Purple and the Gold Machine got completely underway and functioned properly. The two teams were practically even in weight, but our boys romped away with a well earned victory over the Nurseryrites. We were sorry that the football season had to end with this game, since our team was just rounding into proper shape to play such a schedule as was played. Nevertheless we were glad that such a glorious triumph climaxed the season of 1928. 1928 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE September 29 — Ashland at Clarion October 6 — Mansfield Teachers College at Mansfield October 13 — Indiana Teachers College at Clarion October 20 — Franklin High at Clarion October 27 — Slippery Rock Normal at Slippery Rock November 3 — Edinboro Teachers College at Edinboro November 10 — California Normal at Clarion November 17 — Lock Haven Teachers College at Clarion Eighty Five 5E0UE11E SAM SCHETTINO Captain Schettino, our popu- lar athletic ace, ended his sporting career at C. S. N. S. with the final football game, and a finer record has been compiled by none. He served us well this season and play- ed superb ball at all times. He was a scrappy leader and was ready to do his all for the Alma Mater at all times. We are sorry Sam is through. Luck be with him; the entire squad is with him in all of his efforts. We shall not forget his playing a stellar END at Clarion. THOMAS ZAWASKY Thomas Zawasky, the blond tackle, was a menace to any oppos- ing linesman. No one in the entire squad could tackle as hard as our Tom , and we surely do admire him for that distinction. Tom may be back next year, and if he does come, we won ' t need a new tackle on one side of the line. Tom can play on any normal school team. mwrnmam mi Eighty Six 5E0UEIIE KEN WYSE Ken Wyse was a valuable man on the team in two respects, for he could play good football as well as use diplomacy. If he could not take a man out of a play, he could talk him out of it. Ken was always playing aggressively. We are glad he will be back to battle for the Purple and Gold next season. CLYDE MOORE Clyde Moore was the most ag- gressive man on the squad. His ferocious look almost drove the op- position into submission. He play- ed a tackle and a guard, and made a good showing for himself in both places. Clyde is a first year man and will be back next fall to show us how a good tackle plays. Moore is one man that is helped in foot- ball by his quick rising temper, for unless he was partially angry, he could not do his best. Eighty Seven 5[QUE1[[ ai«ffii MAX GRAHAM Max Graham, another first year man, played superb football at all times. He was the heaviest man on the line and the hardest to get through. He was a hard tackier and a quick thinker. He will be missed greatly when the season starts next fall. FRED MILLER Fred Miller, our big utility guard and tackle, was used in cru- cial moments in many of the games. He always played for all that was in him. We are sorry Fred will not be back to help the Purple and Gold in ' 28, for we are sure he would be holding down a regu- lar berth at guard. Eighty Eight 5[ouEiiE EL WOOD ROWLEY Elwood Rowley, who played the opposite end from the captain, was a new man at Clarion. He de- serves much praise for his splendid work in balancing the line at all times. Rowley will be back next year and much is expected from him. ALDEN HUNT Alden Hunt, our regular quart- er-back, was the brainiest man on the squad when it came to running a team on the field. He very sel- dom missed a chance to take ad- vantage of a defect in the opposi- tion. Along with his excellent lead- ership, he was a good safety man, very few men being able to get by him. We are sure Hut will make football history for himself when he returns as Captain of next year ' s team. ■ Eighty Nine 5[DUEll[ JOSEPH STRANGES Joseph Stranges, playing his second year at Clarion, played ex- cellent football at all times. Joe was a good ground gainer in almost every game. He has one weakness, WOMEN. We are counting on Joe for next year ' s team and we feel sure he will come through as he always does. PAUL SNYDER Paul Snyder was the smallest man on our team, but one of the hardest fighters. He was not much of a ball-carrier, but he was the fastest man we had for interference. Paul balanced the backfield to per- fection. We expect Snyder to be a big gun in the line-up next September. Ninety 5E0UE11E BILL FITZGERALD Bill Fitzgerald, our husky full- back, was nearly sure of gaining ground on every play. He could see a hole and hit it hard and quick- ly. Bill has often gone through a line with two or three tacklers try- ing to bring him down. Fitz is a good athlete and we sincerely hope he will be back next season- DICK JAMISON Dick Jamison was a good man in any position. No matter where he was placed he always made a good showing. He starred in run- ning interference in almost every game. Because of his value as a utility man, he did not start in every game. Dick was a menace to any tackier in broken field run- ning. His positions were, half- back, full-back and quarter-back, playing at a different position in almost every game. Ninety One 5EQUE11E NOBLE SKINNER Noble Skinner, the varsity center, was always ready to claw the opposition to shreds and open a hole for a few yards gain. This was Skinner ' s first year as a regu- lar; not big, but effective was our center. He ' ll be in the center of everything if he puts as much in his life work as he did in football. ■• S ., ' ■- Hv. EUGENE KUNSELMAN Eugene Kunselman played his first varsity football this season and, for an initial showing, no one could ask for any better work. He was a brainy linesman and a plugger. This will probably be his last year at Clarion, but if he is here in ' 28 we are sure he will make a strong bid ff r a guard ' s position. Ninety Two 5E0UE11E CAPTAIN STRANGES TT TTHEN Jo seph Stranges was elected captain of X the Clarion State Normal School basket ball team, no such honor had ever been bestowed upon a more deserving individual. Joe , as he was known by all, was an efficient leader. At no time in his career, has Joe ever upheld any policy, other than to do his best and play fair. On the floor or on the street, he was always working hard and doing his best. He was a quick thinker on the court, and no opportunity to grasp an advantageous position was ever missed by Joe . This year ' s team was al- ways glorious in defeat as well as victory, and much credit must go to Captain Stranges for his sportsman- like manner of handling the team. Stranges has not finished his career at Clarion State Normal School, and we are expecting even greater accomplishments from him next year. Ninety Three 5[DUEll[ ' M § K Ninety Four 5[0UEil[ BASKET BALL COACH Jones started the 1927- ' 28 Basketball season of C. S. N. S. with Captain Stranges as a nucleus of a green team. The team immediately showed promise of developing into one of the best teams to represent the Purple and Gold in many seasons. In the early part of the season, the team made a number of impressive wins, but after the Christmas vacation it went into a temporary slump, due to the small number of players on the squad and the large number of hard games that the schedule called for during the month of January. During the months of February and March, the team made a remarkable come-back and scored quite a number of wins over supposedly super- ior quintets. From a critic ' s standpoint, we can say that the season was a success, even though more games were lost than were won. As he had done in football, Jones taught basket ball as well as coached it. Most of the boys on the squad will be back next year, and from the impressive way in which they finished the season, we can look forward to a very successful season next year. Joe Stranges, our worthy captain, played a forward, and did it to perfection. He could be depended on to make two or three baskets in each game as well as act as the leader of the team. Clyde Moore, our husky guard, was our best bet on the back court. Along with his excellent guarding ability, Moore had the habit of appearing very unexpectedly at a critical moment, and helped the offense of the team by dropping a few field goals through the hoop. Gene Kunselman, was our most dependable utility man on the squad. Gene played in almost every game and made a good showing at all times. Ray Kline, our center, played good basketball in all games. Very few shots were made over Kline ' s head, since he had an uncanny way of breaking up the opponent ' s shots. Ray came to us with a good record as a basket ball player and he up-held that record throughout the season. Dick Jamison played at forward and center and did commendable work at either post. Dick could play an excellent floor game and was an accurate shot. Con- sistency was Jamison ' s best quality on the court. Cliff Burns gave basket ball another twirl after a two year lay off and played an efficient guard throughout the season. Burns has size and ability, and much is ex- pected of him in the next three years that he will be with us. Ken Wyse played equally well at forward or guard. When he played guard, few opponents ever invaded his territory to score. At forward Ken was always sure of dropping a few two-pointers in to help the Purple and Gold.

She did some research work there, also some social service work in New York City. Since Miss Perry has been with us, the interest in athletics has grown in leaps and bounds. The hockey teams, though not fortunate enough to com- pete with outside teams, showed much skill and en- thusiasm in the intermural games. Our next step in athletics was basket ball. Through interest of the girls and the excellent guidance of Miss Perry, class teams have been organized. We were not permitted to compete with other normal schools, but we have had some very exciting games with the high schools in this vicinity. Miss Perry has also given us a taste of volley ball, tennis, and some folk dancing. We have not had enough volley ball yet to determine just what the girls can accomplish in it, but we hope that, with the expectations of a new gymnasium, this game will receive more consideration. On the campus, as well as in the gymnasium. Miss Perry is greatly appreciated by all the girls, especially the girls of the basket ball and hockey teams. Her ability as a director of physical training and health classes is unexcelled. She takes an in- dividual interest in each student, and is always in- spiring and helpful. In the future as we look back over our lives at school, we shall attribute much to the memory of one who is ever ready to give a few kindly words of advice — Miss Ruth Perry. 5[DUEll[ Ninety Eight 5E0UE11E INTRAMURAL BASKET BALL For the first time in the history of Clarion State Normal School has intramural basket ball been carried to the extent of our having a tournament. The different physical education classes are divided into eight teams which com- pete for class championship. These teams are carefully coached by Miss Perry, who has at heart the interest and cooperation of every girl. The captains of these teams are: Ruth Crooks, Clarion; Dorothy Alcorn, Brookville; Ruth Lewis, Sabula; Mary Campbell, Vandergrift ; Mary Yurick, Duquesne ; Leah Love, Falls Creek ; and Emma Caulk, Clarion. We hope that the interest in athletics that is being shown by all the girls will be a means to an end — Better Health — and A New Gymnasium. INTERSCHOLASTIC C. S. N. S. vs. McKees Rocks Lineup C. S.

After a few weeks of intensive training our girls opened their basket ball season with McKees Rocks Independents. The game was played in the Normal Gymnasium, and was a thriller from the beginning to the end. The final score was a tie, 17 — 17. Both teams did some very good playing. Our girls out played their opponents very de- cidedly in their pass work. They were playing against a very strong team, because the McKees Rocks girls have had practically twice as much experience as ours. The greatest compliment we can pay our girls is that they are good sports through and through. Our captain Campbell was the out standing player in the game on account of her excellent guarding and passing. We are also very proud of McElhatten, who seemed to be every where at once. When it came to jumping, although Kate is not six feet, two, she easily out jumped her opponent who was much taller than she. We feel that with Kate back next year, we cannot help having a successful season. All the other girls deserve to be complimented for their speedy playing. Ninetv Nine 5[0UEll[ C. S. N. S. vs. SIGEL One of the most exciting girl ' s basket ball games ever witnessed on the Clarion Normal floor was with Sigel High School sextet, on February 28th. After winning the two previous games, the Clarion girls thought they would not have a very close game with the small opponents. Both teams went on the floor for the first tip ofT, one feeling as extremely confident of a victory as the other one felt of defeat. At the end of the first quarter, the Sigel girls were get- ting control of their nerves and were determined to work harder. By the end of the first half our girls were feeling quite faint for the score was 7 — 4, with Sigel in the lead. After a few words of encouragement from Miss Perry, our girls went back into the fray, ready to Win or die. Fortunately they won. At the end of the third quarter Sigel was still in the lead with a score of 11 — 9. In the final quarter our girls had a spurt of luck in shooting and came out on top, 14 — 11. Lineup C. S. N. S.

The next game was played on the Clarion floor with the Clintonville High School team furnishing the opposition. Again our girls outclassed the opponents, but the visitors showed us that with a few more years of basket ball to their credit, we shall see them near the top for both skill in playing and good sports- manship. This is Clintonville ' s first year to have a girl ' s basket ball team. Although they were defeated by the score of 27 to 3, they proved to us that they are speedy players. Lineup C. S, N. S.

Oni- lluiidrrd SEOUEilE QIlaBS of 1 92B One Hundred On 5EQUE11E Our Ihnulri ' d Two SEouEilE HOCKEY Hockey has always been a favorite sport at Clarion State Normal School. At the beginning of each school year much enthusiasm is shown by the large number of girls reporting for practice. Until this year, there has been a varsity team which has competed with other normal school teams. Although the athletic field was under construction and playing facilities were very poor, we have had a number of interesting inter-mural games in which the girls showed their good sportsmanship and enthusiasm. We are anticipating a very successful season in hockey for the coming year of ' 28- ' 29. With the ability of the on-coming Seniors, and the use of the new athletic field, we hope to have one of the most successful hockey teams of all times at Clarion State Normal School. The squad consisted of: Ruth Crooks — Captain Helen Barnes Ruth Spackman Ruth Campbell Kathleen Bauer Myra McFadden Virginia Graham Izzetta Roller Marcelle Browne Irene Sloan Dotty Monks Evelyn Greene Mary Yurick Mary Campbell Alice Killeen Evelyn Huether Kathleen McElhatten Viola Schwab Betty Goodwin Mary Held , Charlotte Bell Sally Curry Charlotte Walter Florence McCall Mildred George Helen Exley Isobel Pryor One Hundred Three 5E0UE11E NOTHING is so inspiring and worthy of admiration as real sportsmansiiip.

One Hundred Fourteen 5[DUEllE REVELATIONS OF THE VAGABOND Well, well, Mary, old dear, we have been here six months and it ' s time we are moving on. What do you say? Sure Emma, there is a few square miles of this old U. S. A. that remains for us to see. Are you ready? And so Mary and Emma started on another lap of their wanderings, only to rove into the oriental splendor of a soothsayer. No, not the fate of a monarch on the Ides of March, is she reading for our adven- turesses, but Madame Grabinsky Wanetka will, for the price of two bits tell your misdeeds, fortune and future. Come on, Emma, let us go in and see where we will be this time next year. Maybe it ' s China. Madame Grabinsky Wanetka say, you are Virginia Graham. You can ' t fool us. But it is good to see you though, gee. I never thought we would meet you here. What did we come for? Well, to give you your quarter if you can tell us anything about the rest of the old crowd. At this girlish outbreak of the two fortune hunters, Madame, the erstwhile Virginia, laughed and promised to do the best she could for her old companions, provided her crystal was in the mood to-day. Emma and Mary followed her into the innermost chambers of the soothsayer ' s den. The oriental atmos- phere overcame them; while looking with awe and enchantment at the magic ball, light flooded the room and instantly they were gazing upon the cozy home of our dear old school teacher — now, Leone Hall. Leone is telling Helen .A., Ruth, Luella and Mid how happy she was when she was able to send back to dear old Clarion her lovely daughter, Imogene. She says she felt so proud of her. Ruth says she read the note she sent to Mrs. Ralston. Do you see Mrs. Ralston? Why that is her picture that Leone has in her hand. She has snow white hair, wears a hug-me-tight, and a pair of nose glasses, although she is dressed in black taffeta, I shall never forget how nice she looked in green. Mary, look here. Miss Parsons just got a letter from Naomi Heefner and her minister husband. They were sent to India as missionaries and who do you suppose is with them? We had a better class than we thought we had — three missionaries, Pete Weaver is with them, Dottie Monks is his ever steady helper. Emma, here is Elizabeth Buchan driving her Ford so she will be sure to be on time to meet her class at Columbia. Steve sure had a big influence on that girl. She weighs 175 pounds, and her hair is pulled back in a teacher ' s knot. Ah, guess what? Tom and Sally have become one, and they have a dear little tow-headed Tommy Junior, with his father ' s good looks, dancing ability and his mother ' s pep. Sally has as her nurse-maid Gert McCawley — oh, gee — but they seem happy. Look, and other expressions of surprise, Helen Hoch, a mannequin. Doesn ' t she look the part — gorgeous in that frock. Such stately bearing, just like she used to walk in the dining room with Kay. I wonder where Kay is? I found her, in her prime, preparing a meal in the most modern kitchen, but who ' s kitchen is it? Why, Grace Stone ' s kitchen, just as I expected. Who are the guests seated in the drawing room? Coach Jones and Frances Sell. What a handsome quartet, Grace, Harry, Frances and John; but our Coach is not married yet. Your vision seems to fade, but there it is brighter — brighter — and I see the great waves dashing against the mightj ' palms. The home of our spinister friend, Marcelle. Can you beat that? Who is that with her — Gene Kunselman, as I live — a retired bachelor. The old attraction seems to linger. The light seems to wander farther — still farther. Here on the patio of a well known hotel. Max Graham proprietor, I see John Stauffer carrying several glasses of the best Golden Wedding Whiskey in stock. I wonder who it is for? There is one for Kenny Wyse. Sam is surely helping himself. It seems al- most second nature to Paul and Mary; there is Herbie. My word, it was bad influence my dear, bad in- fluence. Why, I floated back to the states again, and here in good old New Orleans, I see a big tent. Do you remember the time we were here Emma? But look, Sally Schwem is the fat woman. Clarion food must have had their effect after all. There ' s the sword swallower, Evelyn Green. She sure changed her occupa- tion since I last saw her, and the strong girl, Mary Campbell. She can pick up her two assistants, with one hand, and her assistants are — be prepared for a shock — Virginia Luce and Mary Held. Two more room- mates that are still together. Who are those over there? Rachel and Thelma, the Slim Twins. But here, one touch of art remains, posed on one toe and delighting millions, stands the fairy of 1928, Betty Goodwin. Her partner, as in those good old days, is the clown, Ruth Crooks. Here, Mary, is the one place we have yet to go, Deauville. I wonder who lounges so gracefully under that awning? Why, it ' s Gerry Wyse, Izetta Roller and Mid Parsons, all who married very wealthy men. Who do you suppose is protecting them? Fred Miller, the hero of the beach, sun-burned, broad- shouldered, handsome Fred. Teaching didn ' t appeal to him. I never saw such a beautiful building before. One Hundred Fifteen 5[0UEil[ I know, it is the opera house. What does that sign read? Upon my word, Dorothy Miller stars in ' Faust ' tonight. Isn ' t that wonderful? Her accompanist is Sara Epolito. Why, Emma, I see water, a boat, what a beautiful liner. Ah, there is Bird Carson and his fond wife, Genevieve and a most beautiful daughter. What strange talking. ' She must marry money, I tell you she must ' . Not a bit like the Bird we knew. Out of the shadows steps a handsome stranger, the Captain of the liner. Captain Joseph Stranges. Now, I know. Bird wants his daughter to marry the son of Captain Stranges. See there is the Statue of Liberty, surely so famous a class must have at least one member in good old New York. The scene is changing. Do you see that law office of the second Darrow? Noble Skinner, certainly has made a name for himself at the bar. Oh, yes, here is the New York Symphony playing at the Metroplitan Opera House. See, who is leading? Harold A. Sarig, successor to Walter Damrosch. In the box, watching with those adoring eyes, sits a beautifully gowned woman, his wife, the former Mildred George. By her side, is the sophisticated debutante daughter, Harriet. From the Opera House I see the famed Ziegfield Follies, now managed by the aged C. F. Becker. Under the spotlights amid a myriad of other beauties I remember this lovely face from long ago, Florence McCall. Florence just couldn ' t be here unless Eleanor danced with her. Yes, girls. The visions have past. It is growing late and already I have spent more than my al- loted time with you. What, may we see no more? Must we go? Come, Mary. What fun it has been to see what all our class mates have done. Good-bye, Virginia. We will see you again, some day, perhaps. Meanwhile, think often of your old school friends and they will think often of you. 5. C. and M. B. One Hundred Sixteen 5[ouEilE To preserve for you, member of the class of 1928, many of the sincere joys, and the memory of our happy times together on the campus of Clarion State Teachers ' College, has been the supreme aim of the Sequelle Staff.
