The Last Furrou; Published by the CLASS OF 1934 of the NATIONAL FARTTl SCHOOL FARm SCHOOL, PA. Lasker Hall FORE1DORD To The Class of ' 34 and Its Friends: In this yearbook. The Last Furrow, it is our purpose to present an intimate picture of our stay at Farm School as we have lived it. Many of those incidents that make school life worth living; the things that we like to remember but soon forget, will spring to life as you turn its pages. The staff has taken particular pains to depict each student as he is best known — not to the world at large — but to his classmates, so that in years to come he may find pleasure and entertainment in reminiscence of his Farm School Days. We take this opportunity to express our thanks and gratitude to Mr. Samuels and Mr. Fleming who gave unstintingly of their time and effort to help make our class book what it is. THE STAFF. ITIESSAQE OF THE PRES1DET1T y ▼ OL. of the Class of I 934 have just passed thru an impor- V tant event, the end of school days, the beginning of a career. Your future is ahead with opportunities to chart a new course, to correct old errors and, thru the knowledge gained at this Institution, definitely advance towards a noble vo- cation. Behind you is the past, with its pleasant student memories and companionships. Retain and cherish the friends made here and so live that you may attract new ones, who knowing your human frailities will still remain steadfast. Aim for progress in your work, not for financial returns alone, but for a higher ideal — to help humanity. Approach all obstacles bravely with a mind unafraid, even tho at first your path be rough and discouraging. Follow thru. Cultivate and spread the teachings of tolerance, optimism and square dealing, with an understanding heart. Eliminate the cob- webs of pessimism. Find the right thing to do and do it. Develop a sense of humor, the power to laugh and make other laugh. Realize that the world is wholesome, that life is worth living, that you get out of it just what you put in. This is not a sermon, but elemental philosophy, meant as a message of good will and affection for those whom 1 welcomed three years ago, and graduate today, with a sincere hope for their happiness and future welfare.

El Farewell to Class of 1934 The Class of 1934 is graduating a capable, well trained group of young men. You have had the opportunity of securing training under a completely revised curriculum, which we feel has given you an opportunity to be prepared for your work in such a way that you are going to meet your problems during these difficult times, with honor and credit to yourselves and school. There has probably never been a time when there has been such keen competition for an opportunity to make good in agriculture as there is today. Never- theless we have faith in you, and our best wishes for a long, happy and prosperous agricultural career, goes with you. . L.7 0C( (UI( Dean. Dean C. L. Qoodling In Dean Goodling we have found a man whom we may all emulate with profit. As time goes on we come to a fuller realiza- tion of what he has done for us. Isadore Dagan President of the Student Body Presentation Of The Roe ' HE Presentation of the Hoe is a tradition, a custom peculiar to the National Farm School for the past thirty-three years — since the graduation of the first class in 1901. Since that time much has hap- pened here at school — but the Hoe still goes down from hand to hand. The Hoe is the Symbol of Agriculture, the emblem of the fundamental calling of man everywhere, and finally in this simple ceremony, a bond for the perpetuation of fellowship, good will and high hopes for the future. To you, incoming President, in presenting this Hoe we ask but one thing: that you ever and ever be directed to the sustaining of the fine ideals and efforts of the student body. We can then be assured that the good we tried to do in our three years will not have been in vain and that the tradition of the Hoe will continue unbroken. Arnold V. Egerland Presidi the ( lass of 1934 ' HE publication of this, our record book, marks the culmination of three brief years during which we have been engaged in the pursuit of a knowledge in that age-old profession upon which all civilization is based — the noble profession of Agriculture. Although we may regard this as the closing of our careers as students of Agriculture, in reality it is only the beginning. Some of us will be entering institutions of higher learning, some of us will be working to acquire capital and further experience with which to begin on our own. while yet others of us will be operating our own enterprises; but. though we may all be engaged in the tilling of the soil, we will continue to cultivate the friendships and cherish the memories which have formed so large a part of our student days at the National Farm School. 13 Ualedictorij Mr. Chairman. Members of the Board. Faculty, Friends and Fellow Students: It was an eventful day. in the beginning of April 1931, when we as Freshmen, began our student life at the National Farm School. We were an active, healthy group of young men. fired with the eagerness and ambitions of Youth, anxious to begin the study of Agriculture, our chosen profession. Unfortunately the entire group which entered with us on that memorable day is not before you now. The slow process of evaporation which is experienced by every class in every school and college, has also been experienced by us. Some boys finding that they were unsuited for an Agricultural career, and being honest with themselves, have left us to follow their inclinations. And so today you see before you the serious minded young men who have completed their course and are determined to reap the benefits of a suc- cessful agricultural career. In this connection let it be said that we have suffered a severe loss in the passing aw-ay of Herman S. Nagel, who for reasons not to be divined by man. was summoned from our midst, and we deeply mourn his passing. In the beginning we were Freshmen, new. green, the majority of us scarcely ac- quainted with even the bare fundamentals of Agriculture, Inn soon under the able guid- ance and instruction of our Faculty and the constant association with the forces and workings of Nature, we began to absorb, little by little, the knowledge we were striving so to attain. What with out practical and theoretical work, and the extra-curricular activities, our student days were filled to overflowing. Time passed with astonishing rapidity and the aim towards which we have been striving for these past three years, has been reached this day. We have concluded our days as students in the National Farm School, but tomor- row we begin once again as students, as Freshmen, in the school of Life and Experience What that school has meant to many of you. we do not know, but to us its portals are enticingly open. Filled as we are with the indomitable optimism of Youth and with the practical and theoretical training with which this school has so thoroughly equipped us. we are eager and unafraid to pass th rough these portals and put our knowledge and ability to the test. At this time I wish to express our appreciation to President Allman, Members of the Board. Dean Goodling and Faculty for all that they have done to aid. guide and instruct us in our respective fields. I wish also to express our appreciation to all those who have unselfishly contributed to tlie welfare of the school, and urge them to continue to support it, so that the school may continue in its good work. Words of appreciation are also due our parents, guardians and friends whose noble sacrifices and encouragements have made our stay at this school possible. The end. and yet it is but the beginning. Though outwardly we may seem carefree and rejoicing, yet in the depths of our hearts we feel a pang of sorrow that these happy days must come to a close. Now we are leaving, and many of us may never pass through the gates of this school again. Nevertheless, wherever we may lie. we will all endeavor to achieve success in our chosen fields, and by so doing reflect credit and honor upon our Alma Mater, the National Farm School, its directors. Faculty and friends. I thank you. A. Y. EGERLAND. 14 Salutatory Mr. Chairman, President Allman, Members of the Hoard.  Members of the Faculty, Ladies and Gentlemen: The Class of Nineteen Thirty-four welcomes you here to join and enjoy with us our Commencement Exercises. Just three years aye ninety-six freshmen ciihrccl these portals in search of agricultural knowledge. Today sixty-one members, making the largest class in the history of the school, graduate, equipped both theoretically and practically, mentally and physically to engage in their chosen line of endeayor. We indeed are fortunate to terminate our stay at the National Farm School at a time when the realization of the merits and the progress toward stabilization of farming i- of such great national importance. Our Federal Government, imbued with the altruism and ideals of Franklin D. Roosevelt, has done more for this one vocation in the past year than for any other industry in a decade. The A. A. A., the Processing Tax on corn, hogs and other farm products, the establishing of the Milk Control Boards to stabilize the prices of milk, reparation for decreased crop acreage and the various agricultural codes are mere manifestations of the increasing interest that the Federal Government is show- ing in agriculture. Several years ago the cry was raised that too many farm- were being abandoned and that a back to the farm movement was needed to safeguard our supply of food. This was purely propaganda by a few well meaning people. Farming, due to the advent of machinery was undergoing necessary changes, which were interpreted by some as an exodus from the farm to the city. Although such adjustments will continue, it is with reasonable assurance that we observe the stability of farming as manifested by the return of thousands in the last year to the farm. The transition of the farm policy of our national government and the added indica- tions of a renewed life in farming as an occupation elevates our spirit to enter into this, the first of man ' s professions, which we feel ranks second to none. With the knowledge of these developments, our youth, our health, and the confidence in our ability to succeed in agriculture, we are happy indeed to be graduated today from the National Farm School.

Almost every one of them had chosen some line of agriculture for his future life. One of the first hardships in preparing our souls, our minds, our bodies for that chosen line was the business of getting up at 5:00 and chasing after the morning bus for the dairy, with one shoe on and one shoe off, and our shirt-tails flying in the wind. Everything went along swimmingly until the evening of April 2 3, when our class was summoned to a pep meeting at the gym. We had a premonition of something awful due to happen — the Seniors wore grim, foreboding looks — the Juniors said, Tonight ' s the night, and what a night it was! By the grace of the Dean, the Board of Trustees and the upperclassmen, it was not as bad as the latter would have liked it to be, but the evil was sufficient for the day thereof. Here we were taken for a rough buggy ride and baptized Mutts. It was at this time that we made up our minds to abolish the S. A. A. or hazing of Freshmen. As soon as we had organized ourselves as a class, we commenced prac- tice for the oncoming Freshman-Junior Sports competition. We practiced hard and fought harder, but took the short end of both boxing and wrestling matches, winning but three out of seven bouts in each. We also lost out in track and baseball, but not for want of trying. We entered Farm School Society at the Freshman Reception Dance. To complete the festivities, we staged the Freshman Follies next morning, and set a mark for future Freshman dramatists to equal. The cast was showered with flowers, (cauli) tomatoes, cabbage, and old shoes. During the summer, time just seemed to sprout wings and fly. Haying, weeding, shocking, weeding, threshing, weeding, and then more weeding, fol- lowed each other in rapid succession. It will be a long time before the class of ' 34 forgets that long ten acre potatoe field behind the poultry plant. During the Fall, we witnessed the second undefeated season of our big Green and Gold football team. At the end of the season, we tendered them one of the best banquets they ever sat down to. Being Freshmen first and hosts last, we ate in the kitchen and then came out and listened to the speeches, as all good hosts should .The big feature of our Freshman year was the defeat of the Juniors in football to the score of 6-0. It was a hard battle, but the victory was well worth the effort. Those former defeats looked small against this victory over a bigger, tougher Junior team. On returning from our Xmas vacations, we learned that our free laundry and shoe repairing service had been done away with in the interests of econ- omy, and student waiters would again have charge of the dining room. We 41 joined, with the rest of the student body, in assisting the school with its new economy program. As the winter wore on, the Seniors looked forward to Commencement, the Juniors to their projects, and the Freshmen to that day when they would no longer be Mutts, when they would no longer be summoned to squad du- ties, and when each one of them could lie under his haystack and his apple tree, and watch two freshmen do what he did himself the year before. So goeth the first year. JUNIOR YEAR As Juniors, many of our Freshman dreams came true, but alas, not all. Due to an unusually small new Freshman class, we found ourselves with the responsibilities of Juniors, but most of the work of Freshmen. Instead of having one Junior watching two Freshmen work, it was just the other way round. In accordance with the changing customs in educational centers, the S. S. A. and all other forms of hazing were abolished. Whether this was a wise move still remains to be proved. While this move was easy on the Freshmen, it was hard on discipline and morale, two necessary, aye, very necessary char- acters in school life. In the light of events that happened during the year, those brave resolutions we made the year before at our own initiation, when we could not see any reason or justice in the business of having wisdom, discipline and spirit inculcated through the seat of our trousers, seemed very foolish and unnecessary. With class sports, the Freshmen got the small end of the score as usual. We trounced them in boxing, wrestling, track, and basketball. The football game, which is an annual classic, was one rough, tough and nasty game, with plentoy of spirit on both sides. Both upperclassmen and Freshmen suffered injuries, but the referee got the worst of the deal. He was found at the bottom of a pile-up with a broken leg. after only five minutes of the game had elapsed. In May of our Junior year, we lost our Class Adviser, Mr. Brenneis, who resigned from the teaching staff to accept a position in Atlanta, Ga. September brought the greatest event of the year — the Junior Prom. On the twenty-fourth, we threw the doors of the gym open to the students and their friends and bade them enter the Sylvan Dell. The decorations were the most beautiful known in school history. The dance is over ,but the memory lingers on. In September of this year, we lost our pal and classmate, Herman Nagel, who passed away after a short illness. As our Junior days drew swiftly to their end. we chose our projects. We deliberated and considered, and then changed our minds at the last moment, embarking on projects we never even considered before. So endeth the second year. A, iUfiM 42 SENIOR YEAR Seniors at last — at times it seems to soon, especially when we see how little there is left of this final year. One of the first duties of our Senior year was to elect officers. The results of the election were: Dagan President of the Student Body Fgerland President of the Class of ' 34 Garment Vice President Aptaker Secretary Plevinsky Treasurer As Farm School tradition has it, the duty of laying down the rules to the new Freshman class falls to the Seniors. We acquitted ourselves of this duty in a quiet and orderly manner, with no hazing — a feature which from this time onward may be said to be passe. In order to maintain discipline a Student Senate, composed of ten Seniors and one Junior, was elected. As the year wore on, their meetings became less and less frequent, until by Fall they were almost superfluous. Late in July, on a cool breezy evening, the north wing of the big poultry house was found to be on fire. We found it impossible to fight the fire with the equipment on hand, and had to stand by and watch it burn itself out against the stone house in the center. The wing was burned to the ground. During October, the school came to an agreement with the State of Pennsylvania, whereby a number of young men who were slightly disabled would be allowed to complete one-year courses here in any project they de- sired. At the present writing, nine have already entered, and the Senior class takes this opportunity to wish them the best of luck in their chosen projects. With most of our project work well behind us and the Yearbook well under way, we are looking forward to that day when we shall hear our last commencement speech, and see the h oe which was intrusted to us, handed down to the next class in line; the day which shall send us forth into the world to be what that hoe symbolizes, Men of Earth.

F., (not that he needs them of course) and his earmuffs to Mavis. Baerncopf, Farm School ' s speed demon, leaves the nurse her car. The ever present chip which Bea rint has so manfully borne on his shoulder during the past three years, is hereby left to Ni- on, the Junior fire- brand. To the next band leader, (poor fellow) Bendersky leaves his broken baton, torn music, office co-operation and the angelic temperament of the Lieutenant. The second hand soles and rusty nails, which featured Dan Blatt ' s shoe repairing establishment, are willed to his successor, Sol Mogilevsky. To his best friend, Mr. McQuigg, Boxman bequeaths his raven locks. The Hon. William W. Brackett, has designated the A. A. Store of the National Farm School to receive an endowment of $0000.05 to be invested and the proceeds to be applied to the payment of an annual prize to be awarded to that student, who, during the year, shall have loaded and trans- ported the heaviest load of manure from the dairy. To the next class in Greenhouse Construction, Breen leaves his essay on How to Sleep at a One-arm Desk. 44 On the 1935 football team, Irvin Cohn bestows his collection of news- paper clippings of his deeds on the gridiron, to serve as a burning inspiration to next year ' s heroes. Who has a match? In the interests of humanity and the other fellow, Henry Humphrey Cole hands down his spornhimmed rectacles to Israel Klein. Bing Rooney Collins, Farm School ' s song and dance man, leaves his talents to Krupp, the future social high light of the Junior Class. To all future presidents, and especially to Al Kline, Isidore Dagan leaves his highly prized executive ability and political diplomacy. May you lead your class forth from the wilderness, Al. Dinitz relinquishes all his worries to the entire Junior Class, since they are too numerous to be assumed by any one person. Draginsky, that generous soul, leaves his ability to grub butts to Jhan- atowicz. Kancepolsky, the Freshman Scalper is to be the fortunate recipient of Injun Joe Ebersole ' s famous war whoop. This makes Kantzy a Hebrew In- dian. Yeoww!!! Hitler s mustache, brown shirt and swastika are reverently handed down by Egerland to his most logical successor, Abraham Rubenstein. Hail Ruby!!! Lightning Lou Engelberg, the fireman ' s child, pauses just long enough to leave his speed (and flat feet) to Don Arbestus Singer (but our worstest worker) . Fialkow bequeaths his Bronx accent to Poilie ' with the assurance that Toity-toid and Toid Avenue will not be forgotten. To allay any pangs of Plevilitis (homesickness) which may be suffered by incoming Orientals, Charlie Chan Garment humbly leaves a bowl of rice and a pair of chop sticks. Little Benny Gartner presents to scrub-woman Altman his tuba, dents and all. Now let ' s see you blow. After much effort, we have persuaded Goldberg J. to part with his pseu- donym Kelly and his red nose — both of which are to be presented to the next V. P. in order that he, also, may stand out above the common herd. Our braggadocio, Al Goldman, hereby hands to Emil Herbst the sole rights to fill his place. Guntscharsky leaves his many varied bottles of ' hair restorers ' to the faculty. They ' ll need it, said Gunner after contemplating next year ' s senior class. To his friend Mersky, Manager Hank Greenberg bequeaths his now fa- mous alarm clock and also the privilege of giving Sam a few pointers in coaching the football team. Hevesh generously offers his genetical studies, (stutter and all) to any- one who can stomach them. Don ' t rush, Rosner. 45 Jacobson gratefully relinquishes the Gleaner and all his other tzurus to the next editor. Start counting your gray hairs now, says Jake. If we weren ' t so bashful, we ' d tell you that Ramie Jones agrees to give up the hair on his chest. This and a bottle of zip is for McAllister. To all those who hate to get up for details on Monday morning or any other morning for that matter. Tiny Kalom donates his sinus trouble. Bravely, despite the sacrifice, Charlie King leaves memories of Lady with her epigamic urge to Frisky. ' Y ith heartfelt regret, Sol Lapin transfers his private key to Klub Kristol to Mentzel. The new edition of Bailey ' s Principles of Horticulture. supplemented by the Leikendian theories, are left by Professor H. Leikind to his student. Mr. Montgomery. Pete Matcovich bequeaths his pot-belly to Lucas. You can quit the egg- nogs and cod-liver oil now, Luke. Prevention is the best cure, says Maxin as he leaves his logging chain to the Poultry Department to hold their ferocious cockerels. Milt Gross Mersky, Peabody ' s pride and Joy, gives to Duck Segal his famous dialect. Its up to you now. Schlepp, to get acquainted with Mrs. Bloom.

Sidne} ' Pallis leaves his baby-face and milk bottle to little Crowfoot Cohen. Freddy Pirmann presents to his assistant noisemaker, Boris Caplan. a tin ear, one lung and bass drum. Once again following logic, we have Plevinsky will his athletic ability to Morton Klein. All right gang — one long yea-a-a-a and a big NE ERSWEAT. Poskanzer bequeaths his stutter to Robertson. All right Robbie, now let ' s hear you call signals. He also bequeaths Poskanzer ' s Puny Puns to Tex Fisher for his Fisher s Famous Fony Fables. His masculine pulchritude and allure to women. Ozzie Raditz grants to Sandy Sachs. Now let ' s see you step. kid. To the next headwaiter, Moe Ralph leaves his indigestion and his uncanny ability to make clear, meaningless announcements. -r, Rummy Ranzer bequeaths to Rose a large N.R.A. sign to be presented to Mr. Groman. NO(w)RENCHES ALLOWED. To save Mr. Samuels the shock of beginning a football season with all players in good shape, Rosten leaves to Wascavage his trick knee. To Friedman, one who needs it badly, Schell gives his quiet austere bearing. Lou Schiffman, the football team ' s nursemaid bequeaths to Bill Saxe the privilege of tucking in the teeny-weeny little boys on next year ' s tiddly winks team. He also leaves behind such interesting reading matter as The Theory of Chiropractic and Contraction of Sphincter Muscles in Football Players as Influenced by Toe-main Poise(n)ing. To his dearly beloved roommate, Nate Shapiro bequeaths a little of his surplus hair. While in this spirit of giving he further offers his affiliations in the Senate, Band and Gleaner Organizations. What a lucky fellow, you are. Coven. To Golombek, Joe Simon leaves his tractor guiding ability and to the National Farm School he leaves the few trees and stone walls which he did not demolish while a Farm Machinery Senior. Poultry Pathologist Sutton presents to Dr. Massinger his theory on In- fectious Bronchitis. Mike Tamer leaves a petition with the P. R. T. for an express trolley line between Doylestown and Farm School (at 11:55 every Saturday night.) Leo Waldman passes his knowledge of Chemistry to Manny Meyers. To the Hort.

To Herkner he relinquishes his position of mid-wife at the maternity barn. Zelnick, our smiling Bolshevick, leaves his red flag, bombs, whiskers, and Communist Manifesto to Rabbi Moishe O ' Neill. Its up to you now, Moishe, to uphold the Communist Doctrines for the coming year. Zlatkin bequeaths his strange power over women and his grace on the dance floor to Wimpy Robinson. Now Wim py, if you could only look like a racketeer, the picture would be complete. Article III. The Class of 1934 collectively hereby return into circula- tion glasses, pitchers, pie-plates (without the pies) and such other culinary equipment as may have been missed during the past three years. Article IV. To the incoming Senior Class we leave the responsibility of upholding the traditions of the school with the sincere hope that, with suc- ceeding years, the reputation of the National Farm School will be enhanced throughout the world. k k • 47 In witness whereof, we have signed, declared and published this instru- ment to be our last will and testament. On this first day of March, nineteen hundred and thirty-four. Signed: Arnold V. Egerland.

Matcovitch looms up in the dust — he is shaking out Poskanzer ' s rugs. (A knock is heard on the door) Pete: Who ' s there? Draginsky ' s voice is heard singing famous aria, Three Men Came from Jerusalem. Enter — Greenberg, Bearint and Schiffman. (Bearint is seen picking up rocks. He commences to build a Rock Garden.) Greenburg: Ah! What price Morocco. Schiffman: (nudging Greenberg) 1 got a cousin in the business. Right Hike! Scene shifts. Two customers go to the box office for a quar- ter-back.

Scene — Egerland ' s Room. Time — Study Period. Characters — Shady. Scenery — A pair of feet on the radiator, disclosing King in a pensive mood. One ( 1 ) pot belly slopes down to the rest of Ranzer, and concealed behind a smoke screen is Sutton dreaming of motor-cycle cops. Egerland enters. All: Heil Hitler! Discussion begins. The boys start pulling on their boots. King: Now I wonder who really did paint Mr. Stangel ' s car? (Stares of profound blankness appear). Door opens. Enter Mr. Fleming. H. K. : Good evening, gentlemen. All: Who said that? H. K. : (Closing door, all the way, quietly) Excuse the intrusion please. At this point, Breen emerges from Egerland ' s back pocket and paces up and down the windowsill, shouting, Who has my Collier ' s? No one seems to hear him, so he sits down in the wastebasket and sulks. Egerland giggles and writes up twelve more chapters of Pomology. Ranzer: The prize is cinched, boys. I got my hands greasy today. A head pokes itself through the window and Poskanzer yells out, What, No Soap! (Sutton, who up to this time hasn ' t spoken, says nothing.) Fourth Quarter.

Woodring, reading up on Cow Pox. They look at each other and realize the udder uselessness of it all. Enter — Shapiro and Pirmann in disguise, (they need a haircut) Shapiro: (To Woodring) I want a shave and make it brushless! Dick cringes and reaches into the pasteurizer for his razor. Shapiro: Strop that and get to work! Aptaker: And what can I do for you. Pirmann: Huh? 49 At this point, Boxman enters and our two barbers revive their faith in humanity. The quartet then gets together and sings its theme song, Hair Today and Gone To-omorrow. In the middle of the fifth act which wasn ' t written, a ballet is presented and all customers attempting to leave are confined to the campus for three weeks. Sam Collins opens the program with his famous Dance of the Seven Frails. ' ' Six of them are from South Philly and the other one is a good girl. Tsipka Rosten then does a new version of the Dance of the Wooden Legged Soldiers, with knee action wheels. Fatty Nathanson ' s traipse over the snow to Grandfather ' s house in much less than scanties brings a shower of $1 bills, especially from Aptaker ' s box. Mike Tarner goes to town with his 4 minute Jag and is late again for inspection. Al (Cuspidor) Goldman amazes the scientific world with his contortions which comprise his famed Poison Ivy Twitch. The audience rises in pop- ular protest against cruelty to animals when Maxin languishes through his Dance of the Dying Duckerel. Dan Blatt almost stops the show as he pre- sents, after much persuasion, his interpretation of the Fan Dance. The Ballet is brought to a close when the Premier Danseuse, LOO-O-O-O Engelberg, scintillates through the intricacies of the Flat Foot Plotch! Curtain Calls — Nobody answers.

Once I was young and romped and played with others. Thirty years ago this night I stood to face the world, a responsible citizen of my nation, a graduate of a training course that fitted me for the Struggle of Life. The years have passed — some quickly in joy and happiness, others lagging in misfortune and sorrow. I wonder where they are — those classmates of mine. The last 1 heard of Leikind came from Honduras — a government tropical research project along the Carribean, Dagan and Gartner were there also, making two bananas grow where one grew before. 1 wonder what took them from our Pennsylvania climate. Nate — old Fatty Nathanson — also left for sunny climes; but fruits, it seems, were not sufficient to hold his interest. From farming to land promotion was indeed a long step for him, but no greater than that of Ranzer. 1 cannot help but smile in recollection of Rummy who laughed at anything, his face a beaming red, and now — Aeronautical Traffic Manager Ranzer. This pastime of reminiscence takes my interest, but its complexities are enormous. Sixty-one members we had in our class, and news has come but slowly. It is indeed difficult to merely raise our hand and count off; Jacobson this, and Boxman that, Plevinsky this thing and — and — can ' t I even call the names of more than three or four to mind? Somewhere I have placed a roster of the class — 1 must find it now and I must check off new knowledge of these fellows. Did I mention Jake a few moments ago? Jake, 1 find, has an inter- esting notation after his name — farmer and publisher. I remember Shappy as another of our Gleaner staff. Palestine with its remarkable development has certainly given Shapiro a fertile field for the exercise of his talents. Possibly that journalistic training has been of invaluable aid to some of us. I really shouldn ' t say that last — we should be, all of us, thankful for the training that Farm School gave to all indiscriminately. 1 look down the list at name after name and see success following success. True — all of us did not turn out to be farmers. As a group, however, I believe our class represents more than an average group of America. Look down the list: Plevinsky, Ros- ten, Cohn, the Waldmans — all athletes back at school — now, thirty years past, continuing that same aggressiveness that brought Farm School her vic- torious records on the gridiron, court and diamond. Plevinsky is coach and instructor in Ag; Quinn a wholesale florist; Rody an egg distributor; Leo, Cletrac as we sometimes call him a nurseryman with his brother Guzzle. With what glory have these men, to mention but a few names of many, upheld the name of their School and Class! Mersky and Peter Matcovich, too, represent another pair of athletes. Moish, our Mrs. Yifnif, the happy-go- lucky with his ear-wide grin now a placid family man with a medium sized farm and a house full of kids. And Pete a family man too — Peter and his vege- tables; maybe less of riches but most of happiness. As I look down the list, I find many who are farmers, despite the great percentage of those who are not actually on the farm. Baerncopf. still up Reading way, Blatt back home in Colorado. Brackett upstate in Pennsylvania. Breen back below the Mason-Dixon line with his strawberries, Egerland with his nut-tree nursery, Lou Engelberg somewhere in Wyoming, Miller on a Mary- land homestead, Wolford on his father-in-law ' s farm (now his), Woodring on his modern dairy farm. I guess I might as well classify Ebersole as a farmer too. Ginseng, sassafras, bloodroot, or what have you. I must add another note that is not yet down on my roster. 1 stumbled across an announcement of Aptaker s new florist shop the other day. The third florist of our class (I have already mentioned Cohn) was Cole, but I can ' t call Cole a florist since he retired. A poultryman comes forth to greet me with his record. Bearint — now a landscape architect (which makes three, including Raymie Jones and good old thorough Schell). Bugs associated, I believe, with Shiftman and Greenberg. Shiff is now rounding out a successful veterinary practice and the last I heard, Greenberg Bros, controlled the New York egg trade. Draginsky, I un- derstand, is doing bacteriological research for a large milk company. I was told not so long ago that Bendersky has been, of late, devoting much of his time to music. I heard some music recently, the product of his collaboration with Poskanzer, and was truly moved by it. I recall another Angert — who forsook poultry to deliver the newer conservative and mature syncopation that the public now demands. Music reminds me of Joe Slobod- nick who would sit breathlessly through a concert, dwelling on its themes and rhythms as though he depended upon them for sustenance. Joe has gone to Palestine. Lapin went back too. about twenty years ago. Kalom and Zelnick are there too. It seems as though I have covered most of them now. Let me check them off — there are but nineteen left. King and Sutton; Charlie on a dairy farm, Sut back at the bakery, although their capacity has risen with the years. Charlie, I hear, is a manager, and Sut a buyer of bakery supplies. Elliott Aronberg, Olives, is out west working with horticultural crops. Sam Col- lins a dairyman. Al Goldman an Atlantic City entertainment concessionaire. Garment is now a vet, as is his former roommate, Pirmann. Pallis has a nota- tion of interest; a column of numbers, which, they say, represent his patent ideas. Let me not skip Tarner. at the State Capitol, although I am unable to remember his office. These additions bring my missing list to eight. Let me see if 1 can t re- call their whereabouts from memory. Goldberg and Gunsharsky, rejoined aft- er graduation, have cooperated in the maintenance of a poultry supply com- pany. Olanoff has found a place in the West on the newly settled government ! Vifciii 52 conservation projects. Ralph, the mimic, after trying most everything, is back on the soil, 1 believe, in fruit and poultry. Simon, a tractor man on an eastern farm, and Speck Meyers still stuck on his managerial job. Abbie Fialkow and Bill Maxin have also demonstrated their agricultural training on their own farms acquired in both instances through actual work and saving. Boxman and Zlatkin bring up the list, both soldiers of fortune. Of Zlatkin I know little, of Boxman almost as much. According to reports, rumors come from here and there bearing a most romantic tinge. Zlatkin in Mexico, Boxman in Iraq. My reverie is over. Night is lifting and dawn breaks through. These recollections consumed the hours of night as the medium of pleasured reminiscence erased the blanket of time and renewed a life lost only in reality. Thirty years have passed to the day, but lingering thoughts of Farm School maintain a loyalty justly due. J.H. Editor ' s Note: — For the benefit of those seniors who have not. as yet, secured position-?, nf offer the opportunity listed in the following advertisement. HELP WANTED North Carolina Chronicle, May, 1 790: Wanted for a sober family, a man of light weight who fears the Lord and can drive a pair of horses. He must occasionally wait on tables, join in the household prayers, look after the horses and read a chapter in the Bible. He must, God willing, rise at seven in the morning and obey his master and mis- tress in all lawful commands. If he can dress hair, sing psalms and play crib- bage, the more agreeable. N. B. He must not be too familiar with the maid servants of the house, lest the flesh rebel against the spirit, and he be induced to tread in the thorny path of the wicked. Special Editor ' s Note: — [fter reading the above advertisement we realize thai no Farm School student co uld possibly qualify. Still we tried our best. 34 55 FARM SCHOOLS 56 WHOS WHO?? 57 Q he Power and Qlory ' HE athletic element in the 19 34 graduating class in becoming Alumni to their Alma Mater, are leaving behind a rich athletic tradition and a splendid record of achievements in competitive sports. Not only are the records of the past three years comparable with the fine records of previous years, but these recent achievements have resulted in the public and all our rivals admitting respect and admiration for the boys representing our teams. Their records have proven the best test of a winner — Consistency. I derive considerable pleasure in stating another unusual factor which accompanied the prowess of our athletic teams this year, and that is the excel- lent spirit of the student body towards the boys representing them in the field of sports, and a feeling of admiration for the students playing. More important has been the splendid attitude of the boys representing the team, in accepting their achievements modestly, in realizing that the best formula for results and success is constant hard work and sacrifice, plus the im- portance of character expressing since they were representing this institution in the eyes of the public. It is my hope that these same attributes will be carried on through life after graduation, when the mettle of each individual from every standpoint will be tested continuously. In Leo Waldman, Captain of this remarkable team, we will lose one of the hardest plunging backs and an excellent all-round individual. Morris Plevinsky will go down in Farm School athletic history as the out- standing competitive athlete, from his ability to produce at the crucial mo- ment, and must be rated with the best in the activiies of football, basketball, and baseball. In Captain Irving Cohn the basketball team will lose one of the best play- ers ever to represent the school in this sport. His loss as one of the most reliable linemen on the football team will also be keenly felt. The basketball and football teams will also miss the dependable services of Louis Engelberg, while the gridiron representatives, Albert Goldman, Maurice Mersky, Abraham Rosten, Herbert Meyer, Isadore Dagan, and Peter Matcovich, who have done considerable to achieve such splendid records at the school, can feel they have left indelible impressions among those with whom they have had contact along these lines of endeavor, and have created records of which they may justifiably feel proud. It is my fervent hope that these men and all representatives of the 1934 class will use the same principles for success in life, for they must all realize that the game will be much harder after leaving their Alma Mater, and sources of advice from others will be limited. I know they all feel that those remaining behind will be interested, and do all possible towards achieving their ultimate goal. C7. rJ). r a??tf f i. 58 Athletic Director S. B.

F. S., we save a deep niche in our minds to store the impressions of three glorious football seasons; three fighting teams to which the class of ' 34 con- tributed both on the field and in the grandstand. In our Freshman year, the men coming out for the team had to compete for positions with a veteran array of stars. Waldman and Cohn earned their letters, helping to complete an undefeated and untied schedule. Captain Elson led a big Green team to eight straight victories. Most of the ' 32 varsity were learning How to take it, and it is a lucky thing they did. The 32 team was probably the greatest to ever wear the Green and Gold. Coming back week after week with a lineup riddled with injuries, the Bulldogs played inspired football to win glorious victories. The season saw us tied but once. Waldman, Rosten and Plevinsky opened the season as regular backfield men. On the line we had such stalwarts as Engleberg, 1. Cohn, Mersky and Matcovich. Injuries started to jinx us even before the season began. In the fiist game, Rosten was injured and saw little service for the rest of the season. .Mersky was eliminated with a broken leg in the second game. Matcovitch was converted to center and came through brilliantly. Goldman was a capable sub- quarterback and also won his letter. The season of ' 33 found us with a veteran aggregation. But the opposi- tion was tougher than ever. Each opponent was pointing for the team, and each was turned aside, except a strong Ursinus team, which blocked two kicks and converted them into points, thereby marring a three year record. Dagan and Meyers earned their r for three fighting years on the squad. Greenberg was manager and Shiftman team trainer. FOOTBALL RECORDS 1933 N. F. S. 27 Forest Park School N. F.

However, during our stay baseball had the poorest record from a won and lost basis. This may be contributed, in a large measure, to the frequent changing of coaches. Coach Stangel led the team during our Freshman year. Four victories were all the team could garner from a ten-game schedule. Matcovitch, Laza- row, who left us, and Plevinsky were our lettermen. Coach Brenneis replaced Mr. Stangel during ' 32. This veteran team was responsible for seven victories as against three defeats. Plevinsky was elected to lead the team during 33. Tamer and Plevinsky were our lettermen for this year. With Mr. Fleming coaching the 33 team we had a fairly successful sea- son, winning four and dropping four games. With a veteran lineup the team was expected to have a very successful season, but they just couldn ' t click. Gartner, Kline, Matcovitch, Plevinsky, Draginsky and Goldman received their letters this season. BASEBALL RECORDS X. F. N. F. X.F. N. F. N. F. X. F. X. F. X. F. 1933 Xortheast Lath.

ARM SCHOOL ' S high scoring quintets have built up an enviable I Q y reputation in basketball circles. Few teams have been able to v - penetrate our five man defense to any marked degree, and in our three year stay we have been represented by three strong combinations. Un- fortunately we were not able to end a season without a setback. Captain Shiffman led a powerful aggregation in our Freshman year. Cohn was the only Freshman to earn a letter, sharing time with Captain Shiffman. The opening games were easy victories for the Bulldogs. However, disaster overtook the team at the end of the season and we dropped three games in a row. Southern created an upset by beating us in a thrilling game on our home court. Cohn, Engleberg and Plevinsky earned places on the 32 basketball team. Captain Vandernoot led the team through a highly successful season. On our home court the boys took over such strong opponents as Ursinus Frosh, Mar- ines and Southern. In a sensational game, Southern, Philadelphia ' s scholastic champions, was defeated 31-30 to avenge the previous season ' s upset. Travel- ling away from home, for the last game with P. I. D., Farm School found itself on the short end of an amazing upset, considering the easy way in which they defeated their opponents in the previous game. 1. Cohn was elected captain of the basketball team in our Senior year, in recognition of his fine play and high scoring ability of the previous seasons. The games were much closer and thrilling, however, although twice we were on the small end of the score on our home court. Temple Prep, and West- chester Teachers accounted for the three defeats, the Teachers carrying home the honors twice. Ursinus Frosh and Westchester M. A. were defeated in close games on our own court. Cohn, Plevinsky and Engelberg again earned letters by their outstanding net work.

It was established to deal with Freshman infractions of school and student body rules, and has succeeded admirably in that purpose. In all its dealings with the underclassmen, it has played the role of a guiding hand, rather than a Criminal Court. The creditable manner in which all its meetings were conducted is an indication of the fine spirit of co-opera- tion present in the entire student body. . B. SIIAl ' IRO. Chairman A.

The frequent meetings were made especially interesting through talks given by speakers well informed on horticultural subjects. Out- standing events were lectures by Mr. Fagan, Professor of Pomology at Penn State College, and Mr. L. J. Smith, Chief Entomologist for the State of Penn- sylvania. Lantern slides and films shown at various times, and several talks by practical farmers were among the benefits shared by the club members. The interest of our sponsor, Mr. L. S. Montgomery was one of the pri- mary reasons for our successful year. IIY.MAX LEIKIND. President BEN GARTNER, 1 ice Presidi SAMUEL .TAOOBSON, Secretary .1AV POSKAXZER.

SYLVAN DELL ,E will none of us ever forget that glorious evening )f September 24, 1932, the night of our Junior Prom. It was by far the most enjoyable social event held at Na- tional Farm School during the three years that we have been here. But we remember it, not only for the pleasures it provided, but for the fact that it was the result of the whole-hearted co- operation of the whole class, and was the starting point of a spirit of class co-operation that was evident from that time onward. Special credit is due those members of the committee who had the work in charge, but we do not deem it proper to men- tion names since the whole class did its share, and one needs only to look at the class roster to find those responsible for this event. t n JUNIOR CLASS ILBERT K l.l-:i N.
