Corry Area High School - Corrian Yearbook (Corry, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 92 of the 1940 volume:

PUBLISHED IN JUNE - 1940 BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF THE CORRY HIGH SCHOOL CORRY, PENNSYLVANIA Our Memories Back in 1940 There was a Senior Class, Who tried so hard to publish A year book that would pass. We couldn’t find a subject We couldn’t find a theme. Everything was used before There seemed no use to scheme. At last on one fine morning A ray of hope appeared. “Old age relives in mem’ries The times to it endeared.” Fond memories in a year book When once recorded well. Will continue all the years to come One's good times to retell. That’s why we bring these pages To friends of Corry High, That in them may be treasured Those times which they are nigh. And so the theme was chosen And so the subject too, “Our memories” that all who read Might say “We envy you.” And may you in the future Reread with joy and pride. This record of your school days Of friendships that abide. WE PRESENT THE 1940 CORRIAN in four new styled sections: 1. Concerning Those Who Teach (Administration) 2. About Those Who Learn (Classes) Regarding Those Who Strive (Clubs, Sports, Music, Dramatics, Snaps) 4. Advertisements (Friends who made possible our yearbook) -•� . 4 j - To MR. STANLEY ANDERSON who has been to us an example of good sportsmanship, humor, and sympathetic understanding, since the beginning of our Sophomore year. Dedication To MRS. RUSSELL HAAG whose kindly smile, willing assistance, and enduring patience, have been a valuable part of our curriculum for the past three years. 5 ) Our Almar Mater fr i Hi H=kf V--F f t a=n m ■1. f ) a i: i v if h % U 1: 1 h zzzz zr t ±= — : 1 -4' j rry j:TTj afcr c f f i- Cf U| =ir - a e r)� —f-t—n — r “ x J.

There amici the busy humming Of our city fair, Proudly stands the old High Building 'Tis for her we care. Let the chorus swell in anthems. Far and loud and long. Corry High School and her glory. Ever be our song. Though from here our paths may sever. Distant unknown ways. Still abides the memory ever. Of our High School days. CHORUS Raise the chorus, speed it onward Till the echoes flee, Here’s a cheer for Corry High School Hail, —all hail to thee. - 6 f - We Appreciate MR. STUART HANES The Class of 1940 gratefully acknowledges the earnest efforts of Mr. Stuart Hanes, who this year celebrates his twentieth year as Custodian of the Corry Senior High School. Realizing the definite social value which education has assumed in recent years, the faculty of the Senior High School, after extensive preliminary work, inaugurated at the beginning of the second semester a guidance program for the students. The immediate success of this new activity which concentrates on personality development and vocational adjustment assures it a permanent place in the high school curriculum. MR. RALPH S. DEWEY Superintendent Greetings to the members of the Class of 1940: During the past twelve years you have been engaged in a universal program known as Education.” You are soon to be graduated from compulsory attendance in the free public schools supported by taxation. From then on your education will be determined by your own choice and expense. Let us remember, however, that all “education” does not come from what we do in the classroom. All of our contacts and environment have an effect in the molding of our lives and destiny. Much of our environment is not under our own control but the contacts we have through the friends we meet and the associations which we cultivate can be selected. A person is largely known through the company he keeps. My message to you at this commencement season is that you continue your “education’’ whether it be in classroom, associations, or in home reading. -no - Ralph S. Dewey May I extend congratulations to the members of the Corrian Staff and their advisers for the excellent year book that they have prepared. The main value of a year book is not to be found in its appeal to the student at the time it is issued; but in its appeal to him five. ten. or twenty years later when he picks it up. reviews it and recalls old days and old friends. It is a source of pride to own year books published during the students high school days. Students will find that they increase in value as the years roll on for they are a valuable source of reference and enjoyment. It is hoped that every student will find a way to have a year book for each of his years in Corry Senior High School. Howard J. Sheen -■d 11 f - MR. HOWARD J. SHEEN Principal STANLEY E. ANDERSON It.

The dining room of the Hotel Cony was attractively decorated in the Senior colors of red and white. The dance was held at the Junior High School gymnasium, which was beautifully arranged to represent a scene in the South Sea Islands. The Junior class colors of green and white prevailed at the gym and encircled the stage, where Freddie Kimers and his orchestra presented an excellent program of dance music. After the grand march, led by Martha Mount and Charles Bracken, favors were distributed and balloons were released from a flower shaped ceiling net. The Prom is now nothing but a memory, hut one that will remain for a long time as one of the most pleasant social events of the class of 1940. • 27 K- JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Olin Doris I atha Ralph Bracken Bergman Anderson Foster CAN YOU IMAGINE- RUTH NAGLE remembering anythin ?

She receives a letter for her services at the end of one hundred fifty hours of hard, but enjoyable work at the librarian's desk. In addition to their greatly appreciated services in the library, the girls have formed a club, and hold gay. sociable meetings once in every six weeks, usually in the form of a tureen supper.

Annie Shumskv Ella Mae Stewart - 47 ATHLETICS Good sportsmanship codes and lists of character traits developed by athletic competition always contain some reference to being a good loser. Hut. one who Is too good a loser, one who loses too gracefully and easily, does not make a good competitor. No matter what the activity, he It athletics or making a living, a man who is not in the contest to win. with everything that is In him and by every legal method permitted him. is not likely to succeed. The best competitive spirit Is that which plays every game to win and feels had over a loss—not so had however, that the common courtesies of life are forgotten. In the constant reiteration of ideals of athletic conduct people are apt to forget that a strong will to win is the best assurance that one will remain unerringly on the most direct path to one's goal. If one Is not a hard loser, one will he a half hearted competitor. There is a difference between being a hard loser and being a | oor loser-a difference in kind, rather than in degree. One should cultivate the attributes of the hard loser and add to one's qualities of agression; one should shun the attributes of the poor loser and add to one’s popularity and enjoyment of competition - { 48 t-� FOOTBALL SEPT. 16—The Cony Beavers displayed great power by trouncing the Youngsville Kagles 20-0. Corry played within the enemy ’ territory throughout the game, letting the Red and White threaten but once. SEPT. 23—The Beavers fought to a scoreless tie with the Nurseryites at Franklin. The entire battle was waged in midfield with neither team putting the ball in a scoring position. SEPT. 30—Sharpsville handed Corry it's first defeat by a score of 12-� 5. The Blue and White scored l oth touchdowns in the first quarter; after that Corry's advancement was checked at the half and at the end. OCT. 7—Corry defeated the Rockets at Titusville by one point. 1113. It was a thrilling battle with both teams showing lots of spirit.

Corry lost it's driving power in the last half and allowed the enemy to score 3 touchdowns. The game was rather discouraging since Tom Cragg was unable to play because of previous Injuries and Bob Reynolds was injured in the game to the extont that he had to give up football permanently.

This year the membership was composed of thirty-six students, with eight of that number representing the Junior High School. Under the direction of Mr. Chaffee, the band increased In prestige and showed remarkable improvement in playing technique. In connection with the drive for much-needed band uniforms the organization sponsored a city-wide canvas, a roller-skating party and various other functions. To show their appreciation for the co-operation and generosity of the many civic organizations and citizens who aided in their drive, the band, in connection with the Cambridge Springs musical group, presented a very enjoyable free concert. The new uniforms which arrived the latter part of March consist of black trousers, orange coats, and black caps and add a neat and colorful note to the band's appearance. The drum majorettes appear in white outfits cleverly trimmed with orange. The members proudly displayed their new uniforms at the All-County contest festival at Wesleyville and obtained many favorable comments. ORCHESTRA This year Cony High School has turned out one of its most successful orchestras. Besides some of the best musicians of last year, it now has many new members from the Junior High organization. The ensemble, is composed of a small hut well-balanced group of musicians, who pi act lee once a week in the auditorium under the direction of Mr. Chaffee. Bud Kinley was chosen to represent the high school at the All-Slate Orchestra Festival which was held at Berwyn. Pennsylvania on February 15. 1G. 17. For his efforts he was awarded a gold modal. The orchestra has entertained the people of Corry on several occasions by playing for tin- Lyceum Course numbers, the various school plays, and the annual operetta.

For all those who are musically minded, the Glee Club offers an opportunity for voice culture and learning cooperation with fellow-musicians. This mixed chorus is under the direction of Mrs. Chaffee and meets each Tuesday and Thursday in the auditorium. Anyone interested in Joining the Glee Club must first pass a voice test. This year's organization has been particularly successful. Their songs were an outstanding feature of the Thanksgiving assembly program, and their choral work formed an excellent background for the annual Christmas play. Nine members of the glee club. Wendall Gage. Irene Kovach. Martha Hullberg. Jack Kinney. Ix is Stenman. Doris Bergman. Arthur Ingram. Douglas Mosher and Charles Williams represented the High School at the All-District Chorus at Krie. Wendall Gage and Irene Kovach attended the All-State Chorus at Knox.

Highlighting the year's activities for the Glee Club was the annual operetta A Virginian Romance , which lived up to the successful reputation established by previous performances. 54 i • OPERETTA 1939 During tin past few years It ha been customary for the Glee Cluh. under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Chaffee to present an annual operetta. The cast is chosen from the Glee club with the remainder of the club making up a background chorus. One of the most enjoyable performances ever given on the Corry High Stage was last year's operetta. Ask the Professor. The story centered around Maryida O'Neil, a washwoman's daughter, played by Doris Bergman who was desirous of winning a scholarship to go to a musical school. How her friends conspired to put her through school is all cleverly interwoven with numerous ditties and choruses. Ably supporting Doris were Charles Hughes, as Red O'Neil, tin football playing brother; Isabel Gates, as June Ainsworthy. a close friend; and John Stowe, as June's brother who originated the idea of sending Maryida to school. Keith Henlon played the part of a quaint, unsmiling professor, whose gruffness covered up a heart of gold. Rose Perry and Frank Rouse as two dumb freshmen provided many a laugh. Might Junior High girls participated in a dance chorus, directed by Mrs. Lewis. The scenery and make-up was in charge of Mr. Thomas Roelofs and stage manager was Kenny Burr.

William Kafferiin Treasurer Joe St. Pierre One of the first productions of the group was a one-act play.

The scene of the comedy took place in the lobby of the Eagle Hotel, just over the border in Mexico. The hotel was managed by Ellen Leighton, a sweet young girl. jK rtrayed by Helen Purdy, who was ever beset by the troubles of • Tlsh'' Carberry. cleverly interpreted by (lertrude Crowell. The parts of Aggie and Lizzie were ably handled by Autumn Colby and Marilynn Phillips. The problem of extricating Tisb trom her numerous escapades fell u|h ii the shoulders of her oung nephew. Charles Sands, played by Jack Kinney. Everett (ireeley. as the tobacco-chewing sheriff, was not only in chase of a bandit reported in the vicinity, but also in pursuit of his big moment. Lizzie.” During the course of the play Tlsh wrecked a car. almost shot Aggie. by mistake, wrecked Charles's airplane, captured the bandit (Ace Bracken . and recovered the money stolen by him from Ellen. Dick Hearing capably played the part of Luther Hopkins, a mean old man to whom Ellen owed money for a debt incurred by her father. Tlsh” finally arranged matters so Ellen would not have to pay the money. At the happy ending of the play. Tlsh is making plans for another adventure.

Lucille Barnes “STAGE DOOR” Stage Door. the very popular drama written by Edna Ferber and George Kaufman. was the title of the Athletic Association play which was produced on May 15th and 16th. 1939. The scene of the story was a boarding house for would-be actresses in New York City. The story centered around the efforts of Terry Randall, splendidly portrayed by Mary Roelofs. to become a great stage star. Terry had refused a screen test in Hollywood because to her the stage was tin only important place for acting. Betty Armitage. as the young lady who became a successful screen actress, played her part in a very convincing manner. One of the highlights of the performance was the work of Jewel Hasbrock who had the difficult role of Kay Hamilton, the girl who never got the breaks.” The suicide of Kay. who leaped to her death from a window in the boarding house, constituted the climax of the story. The ultimate success of Terry Randall left the audience with the feeling that perseverance finally obtained its reward. All parts were artistically portrayed and much credit goes to Mr. Thomas Roelofs for his splendid direction and stage setting. 58 I- lime off for lunch ... A lonely place in the study hnll . . .
