Dorothy Steele and Robert Stanton were elected as representatives to the Athletic Council. Ralph Hofmeister and Dorothy Steele were members of the Student Council. Five of our Senior boys received letters in football this year. They were: Robert Hartwick, Leon Florey, Robert Stanton, Arthur Baas and Alan Carey. Miss Watkins was our home room teacher of whom we were very proud. The first event on our social calendar was a weiner roast held at the home of Ernest Miller. Our next social event was a hike up Bald Mount. In October, the Seniors had a Big Day. We waged a political campaign and it was not until then that Summit High realized what able politicians it was developing. Shortly after Thanksgiving measurements were taken for our caps and gowns. Finally, the most exciting day we had had yet arrived. VVe received our rings and pins which we had looked forward to for four long years. NVe again took up our social activities, having a party at the home of Emma Miller. Dancing and games were the main features of the evening. YVe now faced mid-years bravely, as would any Senior class, and succeeded in having four members on the Honor Roll. Vtfe were not lacking when the oratorical contest was held, sponsored by the Scranton Republican. Alan Carey won first place. Mary Schumm and Huber Capwell were also participants of the contest. Early in the spring we held a party at Harry YVignall's home. As June approaches we realize that our high school days are about to end. We are looking forward, and are aiming to master the problems which face us, as successfully as we mastered all obstacles in high school. W H391 .I ., l 5? 'MN' ?'1 ,, --lg 1' 1 Q 14

Evelyn Smith did a Spanish dance, Ernest Miller, a Chinese dance, Jane Justin, the minuet, and Fred Brauer, the tango. Skipping had become quite common among a few, but a vacation proved a cure for this. VVith three cheers for Summit High we again entered school as the Junior class. VVe felt quite solemn for we were now upperclassmen. NVe had lost some classmates, but were joined by Winifred Dewey and Donald Allardice, who was a great asset in athletics. The class roll now numbered thirty-five. Mr. Mahaley was our class adviser, and we all enjoyed many hours with him, which we shall long remember, especially those spent in writing definitions after school. VVe started the year by electing class officers. Ernest Miller was elected president, Dorothy Steele, vice-president, Emily Clark, secretary, and Mary Taylor, treasurer. VVe were represented on the Student Council by Ralph Hofmeister and Alan Carey. Alan was elected president. The Athletic Coun- cil representatives were Robert Stanton and Dorothy Steele. The Juniors were well represented in football. Letters were received by Robert MacFarland, Donald Allardice, Robert Hartwick, Robert Stanton, Ralph Hofmeister, and Alan Carey. Robert MacEarland was elected captain of the team for the following year and Herbert Butson manager. We had not neglected the social activities which we started by having a Weiner roast at the home of Robert Hartwick. Our next social event was a picnic at Bald Mount which proved to be a huge success. Vile celebrated the ending of mid-terms by having a party at Kenneth Huthmaker's. Mr. and Mrs. Mahaley and Miss Stoddart were the ehaperones. On Junior Day a very amusing play entitled UJulius Caesar was given by the class. The Masquesn sponsored a cabaret dance, the proceeds being used for the Junior-Senior Prom. Cn the fourth of September we again entered the school and took up all the responsibilities, poise, and dignity of the Senior class. The class officers for this year were: President, Robert Hartwick, vice-president, Herbert But- son, secretary, Esther Bower, and treasurer, Mary Taylor. VVe began work on our Annual at once, aiming to have a bigger and better one than any of those published before. Pictures of the classmates were taken by Mr. Hornbaker. The staff was made up of the following people: Editor-in-chief, Mary Schumm, business manager, Robert Hartwick, adver- tising manager, Mary Taylor, assistant advertising managers, Huber Capwell and Ernest Miller, circulation manager, Alan Carey, sports editor, Allan Col- lins, assistant sports editors, Herbert Butson and Ralph Hofmeister, class editor, Anna Ollendick, and feature editor, 'Patricia Young.

Esther seems to be rather quiet and studious, al- though she often forgets herself by emitting a merry giggle. When we need some help with our lessons we usually hunt Esther out as she always has her lessons prepared, We wonder when she gets time to do her work, because 'tis said that her evenings are otherwise engaged. Maybe it is a good thing, as she is our class secretary, she would Hnd too much time to take notes on what we do and say. Esther is going to help feed the world, for she intends to prove her capability as a dietitian. ARTHUR S. BAAS Clarks Summit, Pa. Football, 1-2-45 Masques, 2-3-45 Glee Club, 1-2-3-45 Varsity Basketball, 25 Class Basketball, 2-45 Masques Stage Manager, 3-45 Boys' Club, 35 Hi-Y, 45 President of Boys' Glee Club, 45 Science Club, 15 Beacon Staff, 35 Track, 1-2-45 Operetta, 2-4. Glance at one of the most ambitious of the hard- working Seniors. Arthur is a fell-ow who can indulge in studies at the expense of extra-curricular activities. As an athlete he showed us some real football and starred on the Senior basketball team. If Arthur was an example for the rest of the Senior boys we surely would have had a good basketball -team. Arthur's voice is a very valu- able asset and he has also shown his capability as presi- dent of the Boys' Glee Club. It is easy to tell when Baas is around by his melodious laugh which can be heard continually t-hroughout the day. EMILY M. CLARK Clarks Summit, Pa. Glee Club, 1-2-3-45 Class Secretary, 1-35 Glee Club Ac- companist, 45 Secretary of Girl Reserves, 45 e. t. c., 45 Operetta, 45 Class Basketball, 35 Science Club, 1. Emily is just one of those sweet and gentle girls, always doing what she thinks is right, which makes her all the more refined. But still we find a spark of devilish- ness sprinkled throughout her nature. Of course we all know that Emily always was and always will be a good student. She is very capable of tickling the ivories. When she plays, others simply do not have control of their feet, whether religious or otherwise. She intends to prove her ability to us by choosing it as her future career, not saying anything about her possibility of becoming a shepherdess. HERBERT C. BUTSON Chinchilla, Pa.

He always managed to get there even though he usually was late, but then we all have a particular liking for the bed in the morning. Herbert may seem rather quiet, but he always manages to make enough disturbance in class, especially English. He is rather shy and bashful when there are girls around, to a certain extent, but you can never tell about these quiet boys. As football manager he sure showed his stuff, as our team had a real suc- MARTHA E. HALL Clarks Summit, Pa. CI bGIee Club, 1-2-3-45 Girl Reserves, 45 e. t. c., 45 Science u , .
