You are entering a new era, vhere ability, education, and sincerity of purpose are necessary to success. Farming, if scientifically engineered, offers opportunities equal to those of any other profession, business, or vocation. Do not become discouraged with your job or because of present-day conditions. Do not look citywards, w here jobs are greatly overcrowded and living conditions are not comparable to those on the farm, where the beauties of nature surround you. It is true, the farmer today is struggling for a living. So are millions of others throughout the world. Farming is too important an industry, however, to remain depressed. When prosperity returns, agriculture will also improve. There is a permanence about farming. Humanity must be provided for. Therefore, our graduates now entering upon their life-work should not allow themselves to become disheartened by what they hear or read regarding present poor farm conditions. For those having a genuine love for the open and the necessary exper- ience and capital, this is the proper time to purchase a farm. Those lacking funds should save and bank their earnings, to the same end. Starting at the present low level, the new farmer w ill be benefitted when good times return. The Faculty, Trustees, and patrons who make this School possible, are interested in your success. We hope you will make the best of the training you receive here. Only v orthy young men mentally, morally, and physically fit, are admitted to The National Farm School. Therefore you start on your paths well equipped for your life w ork. I congratulate you upon having successfully majored in your vocation, and include a fervent hope that the Class of 1933 may become a credit to themselves, their country, and their Alma Mater. HERBERT D. ALLMAN. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 HERBERT D. ALLMAN President 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 ,0 those who have shown themselves true friends to Farm School; to those who ever rally with love and devotion around the standard of their Alma Mater; to those who are facing with us the current problems of school life, greetings. The years covered by the publication of the Year Book as seen in retrospect by the school as a whole, differs only in degree from that seen by the individual. A few hopes have been realized, many fond ambitions have perished, many promising plans have neither flowered nor fruited, and only a few of many needed changes have been accomplished. The future is in the hands of time; but that the school may continue to grow in value as w ell as in the number of students; that the present good feeling may wax and not wane, that the prevailing activities may in- crease rather than diminish, must be the wish of every friend of Farm School.

Peck claims the distinction of being the lazie.st man on the campus: he ' s even too lazy to close the windows of his room on a cold day. When it came to Chemistry, though, how everyone did envy him ! Carl is a .lack of all trades, ' hile here he was a shoemaker, tailor, and electrician. His only interests in life are sleep and a little bit of landscape work. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 DOUGLAS MILTON BOURNE Poultry Ddiig Age 21 HiuUloii Heights High School Haddon Heights, N.

Joe is the happy-go-lucky boy from Toledo. It Aduld be dithcult to estimate the number of services he bas performed for the school. As mailman Joe was undoubtedly the most popular fellow in the dining ' room. No dance was complete without his assistance. There is a certain damsel in Phila- delphia who thinks a great deal of him.

Lash is one of the boys who does not believe there is a De- pression. At least, we never saw him worrying about it. If he bad a poultry house that cau.ght on fire, he would prob- ably pick up a telephone and start soliciting orders for fried chickens. If Mockey ever gets any grey hairs we are sure they won ' t be from worrying. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 ISADOR LEFKOWITZ Lefk Age 10 Dairy Lew Wallace High School Brooklyn, N.

When Lefk ' ' tucked the bis dn s ledger under his arm every fortnight or so and went visiting he found himself a rather unwelcome gxiest. To those of us who were saving nickels towards the purchase of hundred-acre farms, his vis- its iiroved the undoing of our plans. Lefk was also one of tlie class philosophers.

Farm JIachiuery was Maxton ' s project, and his small size didn ' t stop him from doing a man ' s job. He even succeeded in upsetting a tractor in a ditch.

Horsie is on terra firma when lae is on a wagon nn- loading manure. Here is one student who has capacity for work, and he certainly deserves the title of Master Farmer. AVhile Metzner works like one horse, he often eats like two. At least, that is what some of tiie fellows who eat at the same table with him say. May we add that he was elected Councilman on a platform of Double-Decker Sandwiches. KORBERT MINK ■■Xorhie Age 19 Floriculture West Philadelphia High School Philadeliihia, Pa.

Xorbie never feels better than when he is dancing to the strains of Guy Lombardo ' s Orchestra and singing the vocal refrain. He is a Morton Downy in the making. Farm School did a lot for Mink. Before coming here he didn ' t know how to hold a cigarette. Now he can outsmoke any- body here. Who knows? — perhaps he will become a green- house man.

Bourke 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 CLASS HISTORY INFANCY jNE day in late March, 1930, some young and ambitious lads — there were ninety of us — entered through the gates of this school. Though high in spirit and optimism, little did we realize the ob- stacles and problems that we were to encounter during our three years here. The first few days were spent in acclimating ourselves. We saw real cows, bulls, and farmers. Everything was lovely, as far as the Freshmen were con- cerned, until it happened — the S. S. A. Never will we forget that terrible and aw e inspiring evening. It was probably the most important factor in the shaping of the destinies of each individual and the drawing together of the class as a whole. It was not long before we started to practice for the oncoming Freshman- Junior sport competition. Our first engagement with our arch rivals was in the gentle art of wrestling. We lost that memorable event and also took it on the chin in boxing and baseball. All hopes of winning the track meet were shattered with the termination of the mile run, the last event. We were nosed out by a mere point. Then came summer and with it the arduous attendance to the harvest. We were fast becoming adept manure haulers, milkers, hayers, and hog feed- ers. Vacations came and went all too soon. Before we realized it, signs of cold weather could be seen. Fall began the football season and it was not long before the Freshmen and Juniors started strenuous preparation for the battle of all battles. It took a strong wind to blow away the smoke of the conflict, but when the field was cleared it was revealed that the spirited Freshmen had held the highly vaunted Junior team to a scoreless tie. The result was sufficient to atone for all de- feats we had suffered in previous contests. However, we lost the basketball game. Commencement day loomed on the horizon for the Seniors, the Juniors began their projects, and the Freshmen looked forward to the day when they would become elevated to a higher station in school life, when they no longer would be known as Mutts, no longer to be the underdogs humiliated and op- pressed by the overbearing upperclassmen — when they could be called Juniors. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 YOUTH With the advent of our Junior year came additional responsibility. We were, after all, the standard bearers for the new Freshmen. How well we re- member the spirit of egotism and superiority that moved us as w e observed the Mutts. It became our task to teach them their work and to foster them along so that they might be able to lend their assistance in shouldering the labors of the school. The S. S. A. was a farce as far as its purpose was concerned, and there was little distinction between the classes. The Freshmen became rather cocky, but after being trounced in boxing, wrestling, baseball, and track they quieted down and went to work in earnest. They scored a victory over our class with a w ell coached and experienced football team. The Fall found us busily preparing to make the annual Junior Prom one of the greatest and finest in Farm School ' s history. How we labored and toiled through the days preceding the dance in our endeavors to incorporate into our gym as much beauty and design as our creative minds, coupled with green boughs of trees and the foilage of shrubs, could possibly accomplish. The dance was declared by all who attended as being a huge success and a monument to the glory of the Class of 1933. The horizon held dark clouds in store for the school. Because of the economic conditions it became necessary for the school authorities to make drastic changes in our school life. It meant the return to student waiting, the curtailm ent of free laundering and the abandonment of free shoe repairing. Although the changes were severe, we were glad of the opportunity to do our share towards helping to run this institution during its period of financial deficit. Our Junior days were now numbered and we eagerly aw aited the dawn of that day when we would start the last lap. Projects were chosen with much pomp and ceremony. When we returned from the Winter vacation we were ready to step in where the preceding class left off. MANHOOD At last we became Seniors — a two year dream come true. But far from sitting back and resting on our laurels, we assumed the reins of leadership and set about making this our banner year. Everything was fine and dandy until about the middle of our year when dissension in the student body came to a head. Strict evening inspections and heavy penalties for infringements resulted in several meetings betw een com- mittees of the student body and the Board of Trustees. The direct result of 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 the situation was the organizing of the Faculty Disciplinary Committee, pro- vision for a probation system, strict inspection, and a standard set of punish- ments. About the first week of September the Central Sales department was opened. This beautiful structure was built to instruct the students in some of the phases of salesmanship and retail marketing. As Seniors we w ere the onlookers of the interclass sports, and we derived almost as much enjoyment in watching as we had in participating. Many of our members went in for strange sports — banging the phone box and playing cards being outstanding. Returning from our Winter vacation, we packed our w ork clothes away and started our finishing course in classes. Work on the Yearbook also started in earnest. Late in January we had the honor of sitting in on a surprise birthday party given to President Allman. The Mechanics Building was renamed in his honor. This and all else we leave behind us- — the spirit to achieve, to surmount all obstacles and to reach out for bigger and better things. The Spirit of ' 33 lives on in the Golden Book of Farm School. But after graduation what? We mark time as fate shuffles the cards. I. Goodman, C. Goodman and S. Kallen. P w S WSSTfW t 15 2 5 1 .

We leave our projects to the incoming Seniors, all the local damsels to the new Juniors, and our sympathy to the new Freshmen. Individually — Abe Aaronson leaves his undying quest for a kiss to Henry Cole. Here ' s hoping Henry takes up the work where Abe left off and gets results. Ball leaves his superiority complex to Herbst. Don ' t let this get the better of you, Emil. Baron leaves his inimitable laugh and a couple of notebooks to Breen, an incoming Horticulture senior, leaving these outstanding features in the de- partment. Manny Berman leaves a couple of novel magazines to the library. With these additions the library should become very popular. John D. Billhardt leaves his love for finer things to ' Rummy ' Ranzer. Rummy ought to become quite a personality now. Billman is too lazy to leave his title The Laziest Man in School to any certain party, so w e designate Mr. McQuigg as a committee of one to find a logical successor. Bourne leaves his poetic and philosophic spirit to Arnold Boxman. Box- man, you should find it easy to join the Gleaner staff now. Burns leaves three of his offices to Tamer, four to Benn, two to Pirmann, and three to Dinitz. Raditz and S. Waldman may divide the remaining offices between themselves. Bush reluctantly leaves Baldy ' and Beauty ' to the incoming general agriculture seniors. All Ben asks for is three hairs from the tail of each horse. Olives Aronberg, the ' 34 songbird, is remembered by Cavanaugh who w ills him a well-earned reputation with the Disciplinary Committee. Olives, you ' ll have a job living up to this. Our Pel Delaney leaves his ease in giving recitations to anybody not in- terested in becoming a Valedictorian. Step right up, boys. ' Al Goldman gets something useful. Charles Feinberg leaves him his athletic ability and supreme modesty. David Big Time Finkle leaves the following positions: 1, Business Manager of the Gleaner to Leikind; 2, Associate editor of the Harvest to N. Shapiro; 3, Assistant band leader to Poskanzer; 4, Cheerleader to Collins; 5, Class Secretary to Pallis; 6, Man-about-the-campus to his room-mate Meyer. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 Chi Friedman leaves his fighting heart to the member of the football squad showing the most improvement in three years. This proves that Chi was not a heartless person. Fuchs leaves his sad experience in handling bees to anybody who will give him some back issues of the Nation. Charlie Goodman leaves a powerful uppercut to the persons getting sassy w ith him. Stay out of his pathway, fellows! Lapin receives I. Goodman ' s option on Klub Kristol and the Klub Kristol Korus. Goodman refuses to part with his Southern accent, though we think he would give it up for a small goose. Goodstein leaves a secret to each and every student, with the hopes that everything he says is held confidential. Joe Green is going to keep his butcher s daughter. Everything else, though, will be given away. Come early and avoid the rush. Herbie Harris leaves his fifty odd unfiinished symphonies written for the piano, to the baritone section of the band.

Jackie Kirschenbaum leaves a well established tobacco business to the underclassman offering the best bid, or he will trade same for a well paying dairy farm. Klein is going back to Gertie, so he leaves Sarah and the Neshaminy Manor House to Collins. Klein wishes that Collins continue his love lessons where he left off. Kristol leaves his good times, fancy dancing, and Dot Craven to Daniel Blatt. What a break for you, Dan. Mockey ' Lash, our cool-headed professor of physiology and eugenics, bequeaths this honorable post — w hich he held for three years w ithout any competition — to Plevinsky. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 Lefkowitz, being treasurer, had some money which was left to the class.

Maxton leaves to Gleaner Editor Jacobson a trunk full of letters from a young woman in Africa. Jacobson, there is enough material in this present to fill several volumes of Gleaners. Bernie Merkin, the flashy halfback from Easton, grants Louis Schiflman full permission to be Chief Connor. We mean it, Schiflman, we ' re not con- ning you along.

Remem- ber, Sol, each girl must be written to at least once a week. Nathason gives to the finder the letter n of his name which he lost during his stay here.

Jimmy Pollachek, the most popular Farm School boy in Camden, Neshaminy, Tradesville, and parts of Philadelphia, leaves his personality, pugilistic ability, musical career, plus plenty of It to Hevesh. Gene Pool leaves his conscientiousness to Bill Wiggins. Wiggins, in return you ought to give Pool some pointers on handling women. I. Portnoy, one of our social lights, leaves his million dollar crooning voice to Olanoff. Music has done a great deal for the dairy industry, now see how it works on your chickens, Carl. M.

B. SAMUELS Coach 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 The End and The Beginning .HE completion of another undefeated football season, by what is known as the ■ ' Team of Destinj ' , has done considerably to enrich the athletic tradition of the school for many reasons other than the athletic supremacy which was necessary in this activity, as well as the success achieved during the basketball and base- ball seasons. Never in the athletic history of the school has a team faced seemingly un- surmountable obstacles and difficulties such as beginning with three veterans of the previous year, and then almost every week losing vital cogs in the machine of the team, due to unforseen circumstances. However, the young men representing the aggregation showed wonderful courage and spirit in carrying on to the goal they had set for them- selves. The results obtained are self-explanatory, but more important are the principles and objective lessons taught to these boys and the students, which should be an incen- tive in aiding them to meet the problems of life after graduating from this school. Without an exception, the boys on the athletic teams, as well as the students and followers, could not help but notice (1) that the desire for conscientious and hard work would ultimately result in the individual developing to a degree that will make it possible for him to replace another member who was indispensable; (2) nothing can prevent the unforseen or unexpected from happening, and the value of being prepared at all times to meet the crucial test whenever it may be necessary. The importance of the proper cooperation and spirit in an organization will lead to unexpected achievements, regardless of the obstacles and difficulties in the path of the goal. Now, more than any other time, are the above experienced principles necessary to the men who represented this school on the athletic field, and who will leave the institu- tion for the Game of Life. If the incidents experienced at the school are kept in mind and followed, we have no feeling of doubt concerning the ultimate success in their en- deavors. In passing, George Van Der Noot, captain of the 1932 undefeated footliall team, must be ranked as the best tackle in the history of football at Farm School, plus out- standing characteristics as an exceptional leader, due to a great extent, upon his ability to give his whole-hearted interest towards his responsibilities. The basketball team wi!! also lose one of its strongest cogs in Van Der Noot, who was also captain of a verj ' successful and outstanding quintet. The loss of three graduating men in Jack Kirschen- baum. Jack Harmon, and Bernard Merkin, will also be felt keenly, due to their excep- tional ability as fast ball carriers and aggressive defense men. The baseball team will feel keenly the loss of Captain Feinberg, Peter Cavanaugh, and Jack Harmon. Conditions today will obviously call for the best in every one of the young men leaving the school, and it is our hope that they will meet the test with the same courage and characteristics shown so capably during their school life. It is also hoped that the3 ' will tr f to adhere to the following as much as possible: SUCCESS Skcccx is siiiiil.iiin irarda of praise.

Samuels. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 FOOTBALL O THE class of 1933 goes the honor of having contributed to the production of three of the greatest football teams the school has ever had. The combined record of these teams stands at 2 1 vic- tories, 2 ties and only 1 defeat — an enviable mark. With a hard schedule ahead of them, the 1930 team made a creditable showing with six victories, one tie and one defeat (by one point) for the sea- son. The outstanding members of the Varsity from our class were Harmon and Van Der Noot, who played the backfieid and left tackle respectively. Har- mon ' s spectacular broken field running helped a lot to boost the scores. The 1931 Green and Gold Bulldogs were, all in all, the greatest that ever represented N. F. S. on the gridiron. Captained by Elson of the ' 32 class, this team went through a tough schedule untied and unbeaten. The machine- like precision of this team may be attributed to Coach Samuels ' drilling and the individual cooperation of every member. Here we find Captain-elect Van Der Noot and I. Portnoy in the line and Harmon, Kirschenbaum, and Klein in the backfieid. The 1932 team, the Team of Destiny, certainly deserves a big place in the annals of N. F. S. football history. After a series of unfortunate inci- dents which deprived it of some of its most valued members, the team plunged into a hard schedule and emerged undefeated with only one scoreless tie — against Perkiomen. The composite score for the season is 2 1 9 for N. F. S. and 25 for our opponents. In our Senior year, our Varsity representatives were Van Der Noot, Har- mon, Kirschenbaum, and Merkin. Captain Van Der Noot and Harmon, both three year veterans, saw Farm School through two successive undefeated sea- sons. The success of this last team was due in a large measure to the indefa- tigable spirit and leadership of its captain and the whole-hearted cooperation of the team. Harmon, Kirschenbaum, and Merkin always will be remembered as three of the fastest little backfieid men who ever played with the Big Green and Gold Bulldogs. FOOTBALL RECORDS 1930 N. F.

The class of 1933 has always supported the game to the best of its ability, and feels proud that it has had a part in the undefeated season of 1930. In our Freshman year, the last year in which Coach Samuels handled the baseball team, the squad plunged through a tough schedule and emerged un- defeated. This splendid record was due largely to the flawless pitching of our classmate, Boutilier. Our 1931 season could hardly be called successful, but we must take the bad years with the good ones. We lost most of our last year ' s team by grad- uation, and the new aggregation w as unable to stem the forward march of its opponents. However, they brought home four victories and six defeats under the leadership of Captain Caplan and the guidance of Coach Stangel. Regular members of the team from our class w ere Boutilier, Feinberg, Cavanaugh, Harmon, and Klein. In 1932 the team was placed under the guidance of Coach Brenneis and was captained by Feinberg, whose superior playing the previous year earned him that position. With an all veteran lineup, the team brought home seven victories and only three defeats, a pleasing w ind-up. BASEBALL RECORDS N. F. S 11 N. F. S. 12 N. F. S. 8 N. F. S. 13 N. F. S. 10 N. F.

The courtmen have had more than their share of the Pie of Victory, and the few defeats in our three year stay has show n the power of Coach Samuels ' five man defense. Rolling up the largest scholastic scores for Pennsylvania, the Flying Agrarians just closed a most successful season with nine victories and one de- feat. Revenge was sweet when the pow erful Southern High five was vanquished by one point, 31 to 30. Captain Van Der Noot was our class ' s lone represen- tative and to him goes considerable credit for the team s fine standing. In our Junior year, with a veteran team, our courtmen crumpled in the three most important games. As a whole we witnessed a fair season, with Feinberg, Van Der Noot and Boutilier helping the team through the sore spots. The varsity team during our Freshman year reached the pinnacle of success. Going through the season unbeaten, we achieved a record that will be envied for years to come. Van Der Noot and Feinberg were among those responsible for that year ' s success. Abe Aaronson as manager and M. Portnoy and Merkin as scrubs also worked hard for the success of the sport. BASKETBALL RECORDS X. F. S.. N. F. S.. N. F. S.. X. F. S.. X. F. S.. X. F. S.. X. F. S.. X.

Montgomery JI. Mayer H. K. Flejcing W. Fox 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 VALEDICTORY Mr. Chairman, I ' resideiit, Board Members, Faculty, Friends, and Fellow Students : Three years ago there entered through the iJortals of this iustitutiou some 81 young men, ambitious to become agriculturalists. Today, on this momentous occasion, 55 of these young men are to be graduated. Three years were spent in molding their characters and careers, three years devoted to agricultural pursuits. Now you see the finished products — young men acquainted with the mysteries of soils and plant growths ; young men familiar with crops and their requirements ; young men healthy in body and mind who are to be- come the future citizens of this great country of ours. Fortified as we are with the principles and theories as well as the practical training, it now remains for us to prove ourselves successful. The school can no longer aid us. It has faithfully completed our courses and lias given us everything it has to offer. We must now rely upon our own ability and initiative in working out our own individual problems. It is hoped that each one of us will be a success, because w-e owe it not only to ourselves but also to the school and to those whose chief reward is the pleasure of see- ing us make good. At this time I wish to say a few words to our parents. I want to thank you mother.-: and fathers for what you have done for us. It has been through your unselfish sacrifices and your devotion and faith that we have been able to come to this day. Our thanks and gratitude are too much for mere words to describe. I wish also to thauk those fine men and women for their generosity in giving of theiv time, their wealth, and their efforts so that this school might grow- and prosper. I sin- cerely hope that these people continue in this noble work so that others may enjoy the same advantages which we, the graduates, have enjoyed in the past. Our appreciation goes also to our Deau and Facult. - f(jr the part they played in shap- ing our careers during our stay at the school. Whether in classroom or in the field, these men have inculcated into our minds as much of their knowledge and experience as was humanly possible, so that we might lie better prepared for the future. And so today we are to be graduated. We are happy and joyful at having achieved our goal. How-ever, that happiness and joy is tinged with sorrow- and regret. Outwardly we may appear eager aud impatient to try our luck in the world, yet dow-n in our hearts is a hurt, for in a short time we will be going out through those gates — some of us for the last time. We shall be leaving the place where we lived for three years ; a place where we worked and played ; a place so rich in pleasant memories and fond friendships that we are hesitant to go. But we go with heads high, a smile on our faces, and confidence in our hearts, happy in the knowledge that behind us lies a task well done, before us the horizon and w-hatever it may hold in store for us. ISRAEL GOODMAN. 1933 CLASS HARVEST OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL 1933 SALUTATORY Mr. Chairmau, Members of tlie Board, Faculty. Frieuds. and F(?llo v Students : We, the graduating elas, of 1033. welcome you to enjoy with us these commencement exercises, to which we have looked forward with great anticipation for the past three years. We feel that we have made no mistake in choosing agriculture for our vocation. Al- though the outlook for immediate success is hazy the farmer at present is making a liviug. having food, shelter, and clothing. Our training at the National Farm School has given us the ability to produce more than the average farmer, which should Increase our chances for success. We have great faith in farming. Great Industries may expand quickly and fall just as suddenly, but agriculture is the fundamental industry which must go on if the nation is to exist. Manufacturers have been trying to revolutionize farming by putting on the market various machines designed to increase and hasten the production of farm crops. This is only an exjieriment inflicted upon agriculture that will have no serious detri- mental effect on an industry which has persisted through thousands of years. It does not necessarily follow that we must farm in the same crude way as did the first tillers of the soil, but any change that has been made has always been slow, progressive, and con- servative — not revolutionary. The farmers of today, who have tried the complicated machinery thought best by the dlscliiles of the machine age. are returning to the use of their faithful friend, the horse. Conditions for the farmer have not changed much during our three years at the Farm School. The city dweller has suffered increasingly, so that now we are optimistic concerning our future in farming. The outlook is much better than we anticipated upon entering the school. The road to success lies before us. Equipped with the proper training, we must press on to our goal — that ' e lieeome farmers worthy to lie called representa- tives of the National Farm School. CARL G.
