You launch your lives with trembling and with dread And steer out from the haven of the shore. 'Tis custom when they launch a noble ship Ry ceremony that is fair, sublime Christen the vessel ere it leaves the slip To guard it safe from perils of the time. So 1 would have if thus with each of you, Ere we in sadness cut the parting cord, To leave these words of mine tho' they be few From out the wisdom I have gained and stored. Rc brave. From out your hearts cast ev'ry thought That is unkind, and always be the same Toward each and every thing that you have wrought Although it bring you praise or even blame. Do noble things. Don't live in dreams or song But let each dream be parent to the deed And singing checr the path you pass along Extending helping hands to those in need. For I have known you as none other could The thoughts and passions that within you dwell My richest blessing give to you I would Farewell to each of you, O fare you well. -C. S. Nagel. 8 CLASSES E Blur anh Cbnlh 5 all WW' THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '29 CLASS OFFICERS 21 , L., K U! Exit Q HI wat Lvl' l.sf-M i . ur- -H l ifnl-I President ...... ....................... . .

Mr. C. S. Nagel Class Motto Onward is Our Aim Class Colors Orchid and Silver Class Flower The American Beauty Rose On August 31, 1925 the good ship Education weighted anchor in the harbor of Derry Township High School and unloaded its cargo of one hundred and thirty-six knowledge seeking students, the Class of '29. We, the Class of 1929, entered the spacious halls of Derry Township High School as green as any of the preceding class of Freshmen. Our first week of school was spent in getting in and out of wrong classes and becoming accustomed to high school routine in general. The rest of the year was spent in admiring the Sophomores and dodging the tall, stately Seniors. September 6, 1926 we donned the garments and airs of Sophomore super- iority and went our way intimidating the meek Freshmen who had taken our places. During this year we organized and elected Floyd Beers, Presidentg William Sweeney, Vice Presidentg and Mr. Saler, as Class Adviser. This year the members of the class stepped up and took a hand in school activities. The road of knowledge proved too steep and rough for some, and as a result some fell by the wayside. The next chapter in the history of the Class of '29 begins September 5, 1927 by our taking the role as dignified Juniors. We elected the following offic- ers: President, Carlisle Lewis 5 Vice President, Dorothy O'Donnel3 Secretary, Charles Byersg Treasurer, Paul Shearerg and Class Adviser, Mr. Saler. We adopted Orchid and Silver as our Class Colors and Onward is Our Aim as our motto. During the second semester we had hard luck-three of our class officers left school. Consequently Dorothy O'Donnel was elected to guide the class for the rest of the year. The big social event of the year was the J unior-Senior Prom and Banquet which was held in the Veterans' Hall, Derry, Pa., May 29, 1928. In this event we paid our last respects. as members of the student body of Derry Township High School, to the departing Seniors. September 3, 1928 found us to be stately Seniors. We elected Eugene Pyle, Presidentg Lester Sharer, Vice President 9 Muriel Myers, Secretaryg Olive Ack- erman, Treasurerg and Mr. Nagel, Class Adviser. Our Senior year passed all too swiftly, and before we realized it commencement activities had begun. The Junior-Senior Prom was the first activity. On Friday night, May 24, 1929 we presented our class play to a very large audience. The next event was the Baccalaureate Services May 26 which were held in our auditorium. And at last we reached our goal, Commencement night, May 29. Late in the night of May 29, 1929 the good ship Education, flying Orchid and Silver, lifted anchor and sailed out of the harbor of Derry Township High School into the Sea of Life with her cargo, the Class of '29. 11 E xuWl Q -ll -I ii 2, -fr, lxxt, N in St Eine l ,Llyl,'1l1' I Ill' me csnm Hi-2 5 EUGENE PYLE-'fspiggsr Class President: Glee Club 43 President Hi-Y 33 Hi-Y 43 Mail Order Brides 3 Cross- Eyed Parrot : Squaring it With the Boss.

I hear in the halls of the Township High The chatter of one hundred and one Freshies talk, And Mr. Nagel's threatening voice And his building-shaking walk. From room. thirteen, I see old '30 Roaming around the aisles, Grave Rachel and laughing Zella, And all the faces wreathcd with smiles. A whisper and then a chuckle, Then they give their heads a toss, They are plotting and planning together To show their talents in Who's the Boss. A sudden rush to Sophomore days, A sudden growing wise, By 'now we are ninety-five Sophs, While the teachers are full of sighs. And some climb to football glory, And track with mud every hall. Then, if you doubt our ability, Jusi 'watch us play basketball. They soon recognized all our talents, With cheerfulness deep in our hearts, In The Cross-eyed Parrot and The China Shop We were given leading parts. And now we reached our Junior days, Because we were gay and jolly, For uve studied and worked and played and sang, And didn't indulge in folly. In Mail Order Brides we furnished so-me stars 5 We put on Seventeen, At every debate and activity We're always on the scene. This year we worked both hard and fast And gave a prom so fine To show our love and deep respect To the Class of Twenty-Nine. As Seniors, we will keep our faith To Derry Township High And make next year the greatest one That ever will go by. And when Commencement? over, And we've reached the parting ways, We'll let our fancies travel back To our happy high school days. 24 5 1151112 sinh 6511111 ' :HMI li 'W' iii . 1 - .

SOPIHIGMCDRES After eight years of preparation some one hundred and thirty-five indi- viduals banded together and invaded the halls of Derry Township High School. September 5, 1927 we, the Class of '31, settled in rooms one and thirteen and spent the first weeks of our high school life clearing away forests Qfear of the Seniorsy, planting crops Cseeds of knowledgej, and becoming accustomed to our new en- vironment. After clearing away the forests we spent most of our time cultivating our crops, but we found time to annoy the teachers and to take part in school ac- tivities. Members of the class took active part in football-some making the varsity squad. September 3, 1928 we returned to Derry Township a more capable and confi- dent group. We organized and elected Irwin Thomas, President, and Miss Mar- garet Allshouse, Class Adviser. During the second semester our president de- serted us, and James Shestik was elected to take up the duties of president. The members of the class have taken a more active part in school activities, and through the class spirit it is evident that the aim of the class as a whole is to herald the name of Derry Township far and wide. 26 E Eine ani! cgnlh 5 f x :PW 11 lm: Ill el-ul.

A new class, the largest in the history of the school, was entering. This class, one hundred and seventy-five strong, made the walls resound with such echoes and noises as had never been heard before. This class was as verdant as any Freshman class, but it has already made history for itself. In athletics the class was well represented. High spirit is an outstanding characteristic of the class. Throughout the entire year the class has shown such pep and spirit that it has become a leading factor in Derry Township. The class has proven by past action that its paramount interest has not been within its own boundaries, but in the development of a greater and better-known Derry Township High School. vivian albright william angus earl ankney lena armor jessie baker helen barnhart dorotliy bates harry baumgardner malcolm berg cecil blair ida bolen genevieve bothel emma boyle dorothy brant russell brubaker sophia bugala. lawrence campbell catherine earns vince cermak mike chockla ruby cogan edwin corle mildred cosmock george cox ruth craver leona cummings henry dascenzo stella dellapina carabel diven lesta devinney norman dunlap ruth edsall bertha elliott isabel elliott george fatora madeline fisher olive foster anna friedline virginia george eugene graziana joe gulas george hall james hamill pete hantz elizabeth henderson raymond herbage eleanor hlavsa freda holsopple joe hosack virginia hysong irwin elder eetor jacobelli paul jackson hernard jasper teresa jasper william jellison alphonse joe harry johnson mary johns omer johnston elizabeth kepple irene kelly steve kohuth mike kollar frank kovalish andy krehlik louise kubit john leccia mary libengood margaret liebel william lipinsky pansy locke paul ludwig paul m'chesney eugene abbaticchio dorothy m'creery dora 1n'curdy catherine m'ginnis loretta malloy alda mania louis martin Wilmer meloy henry mitchell mary mitchell helen moloko viola moore lueinda nicholson edward nicol virginia noel anna otto margaret otto elsie patterson florence pattersou hannah patterson ruth e. patterson william peltz josephine penich pete perino david piper lois piper stanley pivovar josephine plato joseph prato david pricor martha reed jeanne repp domiuic rich Carlisle roudebush eugene ruffner wayne rush thomas ryan hertha sanford george frederick dorothy m'clune howard schmitt regis schrum lulla schultz dale sheets vincent skrbin william small bernice smith margaret smith george soisson theodore soltesz edna spangler dorothy squibbs mary lou steele Pllgene stemmler freda stouffer mildred svehla helen sweeney harry Switzer ralph taylor doyle thomas glen thompson george tom lillian tom josephine tonian charles tyson michael vagel pauline vagel pete vagel margaret volpe andrew walkinshaw clair whitesell ella Willard anderson wilson john yancy john yarcheck john zamisky eugene abbaticchio 5 131112 ami!

Standards are something which anyone with any pretense to education must have in mind and heart. Without standards there can be no education in the modern sense of that word. Standards must advance and advance continually or our modern civilization may lose its grip upon the world. How can the standards of Derry Township High School be advanced except through the forward movement of the Alumni? Alumni loyalty is fundamental in education. No school advances where the Alumni do not work with it. The Alumni spirit is born with the first flush of school life. Are we as Alumni going to let this spirit expire? To promote this spirit we should have a strong Alumni Association in Derry Township High School, because it is the only way of promoting the success of our Alma Mater. An Alumni Association will not be any good unless it is active, therefore we should have frequent meetings to increase the interest in our high school. At one of our former meetings our Association decided to hold at least one banquet a year, and if possible, to meet more often. At this meeting, which was held in the Trinity Lutheran Church, Derry, Pa., the following officers were elected: President ........ . . . John McCombs Vice President .... . . . Michael Shust Secretary ..... .... O rin Mickey Treasurer ............. Mary Baltozer It was decided at this meeting that the members of the graduating class each year are to be invited as guests to the annual banquet. This was done for thc purpose of creating in the minds of the Seniors an interest in our Alumni Association. We are all faithful and ardent Alumni of Derry Township High School. Let us do our part in increasing the prestige and influence of the High School whose name we proudly bear. 30 ATHLETICS mine aah Qgnlh 5' sf' If., 411 t!, l.-it l 'I is A., .. -Mil I ug.-N X g-MP1 l' 11532, 1 --15, I - .g x g T - A G G e' c Nd Q FOOTBALL During the football season of 1928, Derry Township High School played the hardest schedule of its history, and produced for itself an enviable record. Games were played with schools of four different counties, and resulted in one defeat for the Township. Our goal line was crossed but once, and our total points were 256 to our opponents 6.

The great credit for this team is due our Coach and Principal, Mr. R. M. Coulter. Mr. Coulter was ably assisted by Mr. O. F. Beers who gave his time every evening to make the season a success. Under the leadership of Captain Robert Shestik, the team won a reputation which extended far and wide. His successor, Mike Hostick, has been a linesman for three years and well merits the honor bestowed on him. 33 2-f' - 5 I 131112 anim cgnlh l X 'W' , IK vm'4mltZ I Our faculty manager, Mr. C. S.

Due to the efforts of Mr. Coulter and Mr. Nagel, our school has been admitted into the W. P. I. A. L. as a class B member. Our schedule for next year is: September 28-TraH'ord--Away October 5--Franklin Twp.

' ' Os 'E GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Girls' Basketball Team has just completed its most successful year in basketball-not entirely from the standpoint of games won and lost, but from the standpoint of sportsmanship developed. As last year, Miss Norma Hogan has again proven herself to be a very ellicient and capable coach. Marie Clark was chosen by the girls to represent them as their captain because of her evident lead- ership ability and her previous record on the court. The boys did not organize a High School team this year, but Carlisle Lewis, with the aid of Mr. Coulter, organized a team which made a good showing for itself. The basketball activities were brought to a close with the Basketball Ban- quet which' was held in the Veterans' Hall at Derry. The banquet was arranged and carried out by Miss Hogan. The line-up of the team was as follows: First Team Position Secomi Team Grace Gerhardt, '29. .... . . .. Forward .. . . ...... Alice Albaugh, '29 Helen Mock, '29 ......

Martz-Leader The 1928-29 school term marked an important advancement for Derry Township High School-the organization of a school orchestra. Up until this time we had no such musical organization, but with the coming of Mr. Martz came our orchestra. Those students possessing musical talent were gathered together under the capable supervision of Mr. Martz, head of the Department of Agriculture. These chosen few have worked diligently to increase the prestige of our school. They have succeeded in inspiring our students to a higher level of musical apprecia- tion. The success of this orchestra is due to the talent, ability, and untiring ef- forts of its capable leader. The members of the orchestra are: Pianist-Muriel Meyers Violins--George Smetak, Ruby Cogan, Sarah Mock, Ella Edsall, Josephine Toman, Virginia Noel. Bass Horn-Emerson Campbell. Cornets-Donald Campbell, Richard Allison, Cecil Dunlap. Saxophones-Charles Bonn, Gilbert Kestner. Drums--Harry Switzer. 41 E x C 1 J NF mmm IJ EWMK - 1' - ' -nl ,fy yuh? 131112 anh 6611121 THE GLEE CLUBS 42 E Z xX 1 x' .x .gm i ii. 1 ' i 'll .if -H il 531112 aah 6511121 THE GLEE CLUBS GIRLS BOYS Director .......

William Nicol The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs were first organized in 1927. Tlre Girls' Glee Club was under the direction of Miss Louise Mailey, and the boys' was under the direction of Messrs. B. W. Saler and Eugene McKe1vey. The directors soon realized that many things were possible for these clubs, and in the spring of 1927 they successfully presented the comic operetta, Captain Cross Bones. Last year the clubs both showed the same progressive spirit that they had the year before. The China Shop, a Chinese operetta, under the direction of Miss Mailey and Mr. Saler, was successfully presented. This was the first time in the history of our higli school that we were able to draw a capacity house two nights in succession, April 11 and 12. This year, April 25 and 26, the combined boys' and girls' glee clubs again presented a successful operetta, Jerry of J erico Road. This operetta proved to be the most successful ever presented in Derry Township. The success of the glee clubs this year has been due to the efficient leader- ship of Miss Mailey, who has been with the girls' glee club for the last three years, and to Mr. Martz, who has natural musical abilities. The following is a list of the characters of Jerry of Jericho Road : UNCLE PETE-An old-time westerner ........................ Thomas Kerr ALAN O'DAY-Young owner of Feudal Rock Ranch . . . ....

Cecil Dunlap Treasurer . . . . . . Ray Casner Club Adviser ......,............... Mr. Martz The Vocational Agricultural work of our school had its inception almost four years ago when the County Supervisor of Agriculture, A. E. Mack. organized an agriculture class in the fall of 1925. This class was held for one 901-minute period a week, and, although there was not much time for classroom work. the idea of studying scientific agriculture in the school was gradually brought before thc community. For three years classes of this nature were held, and the value of agricultural training in the school made itself felt more and more until it was decided to establish a Department of Vocational Agriculture in the school with a full time resident teacher and a four-year curriculum in agriculture. So it was that this year our boys had the opportunity to enroll for the first time in an agri- culture course which requires half of their school time each day. At the close of the school year in 1926, a team of three boys-Joseph' Kin- nan, Michael Jelley and Gerald Jelley --went to State College during the annual Young Farmers' Week in June, and entered the General Livestock Judging Con- test open to all students of agriculture in Pennsylvania. The boys were remark- 44 Elm' ' ' gli ,I 131112 sinh cgnlh I we X ivl ' IN . 'llmif will ably successful by winning first place as a team, and, as a result, Gerald Jelley, who had the highest individual score of the three boys, went to the Royal Live- stock Show in Kansas the next fall as a member of the Pennsylvania team in a National Judging Contest. In the spring of 1927 a judging team was again en- tered in the contest at State College and this time placed second as a team. How- ever, Joseph Kinnan stood very high as an individual and was one of the three Pennsylvania boys to go to Kansas that fall. In June of 1928, a team composed ot' Michael Jelley, Cecil Dunlap and William Nicol again won first place as a team, and Michael Jelley went to the western contest in November 1928. A second State Contest open to all agricultural students is the State Dem- onstration Contest held each January at Harrisburg in which an attempt is made to demonstrate some practical work which has been learned in the classrooms. We were represented by a. team of four boys---Marcus Fannie, Irwin Thomas, Henry Reeping and Joseph Greubel. Poultry Culling was their subject. The ability of the boys may be judged from the fact that they took fifth place out of all the Pennsylvania schools teaching Agriculture. The third State Contest for which the Ag boys may compete is the State Project Contest. This contest considers the results of the Work which the boys have done on their home project. Each boy must carry on a project in which he may practice some of the things which have been learned in the classroom. Dur- ing the summer of 1928, twenty-eight projects were completed at home. A rec- ord of this work shows that these pupils made a net profit on their projects of 83,014.75 Projects were conducted in poultry, swine, corn, gardening, home improvement, potatoes and sheep. In the State Contest awards of medals and ribbons are given in each subject. We had some state winners in this contest also. Cecil Dunlap won a third place in Poultry, Marcus Fannie a tenth place in Home Improvement, and Donald Carrier an eighth place in the Winner's class, since he won a third in Poultry last year. These three winners placed our school in nineteenth place out of the large number of schools entered. During the school year an Agriculture Club has been formed by the stu- dents with the object of further developing the work of the Department of Agri- culture. Last fall a Project Exhibit of the Work done by the boys was held. This spring a community meeting in the form of an Ag Booster Nite was sponsored by the club. At this meeting Dr. C. V. Williams, of Kansas State College, was the principal speaker. As part of their school work the boys have built a hotbed at the rear of the school building. An incubator was also set and carefully tended. In addition, trips by the entire class to local points of agricultural inteiest have been taken. The boys are enthusiastic about their work and prospects are very favorable toward greater progress in the coming year. 45 13l1IP amh Gulf! gl U ,717 - -wi' ll il' K ww ,Ivy ,,ll.'hhm,g,!k K I W N i 'll 11 img, , --'gill C- - - Q, EIC 515' JUNIOR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OFFICERS President ...... ........... . . .

Miss Pauline Bowers The Junior Chamber of Commerce was organized during the second semes- tei under the direction of Miss Pauline Bowers. A meeting was held in the audi- torium and oflicers were elected. Any one who is taking the commercial course or part of the commercial course is eligible for membership. The purpose of the Junior Chamber of Commerce is to bring the students of the commercial depart- ment into a more direct contact with business administration and commercial activities. Due to the fact that the club was not organized until near the last of the school term, little has been accomplished. But under the efficient leadership of Miss Bowers and the capable otlicers, it is hoped that next year all the possibili- ties of a Junior Chamber of Commerce will be fully realized by the students of Derry Township. 46 1 'E - it as 131112 zmh 6511111 W m 52: 11. iff K lf-X 1-1' -if THE I-II-Y OFFICERS President ....... ..................

John Clawson The Hi-Y is an organization to carry the work of the Y. M. C. A. into the high schools of the United States. Its greatest objective is to raise the standards of Christian character in the high school and throughout the community. Derry Township I-Ii-Y having met the requirements and obligations of a Hi-Y for 1928-29 is duly afliliated with the national Hi-Y organizaton as an Oili- cial club. During the second semester of 1928 the Hi-Y Club was organized, under the leadership of Mr. C. S. Nagel. The following officers were elected at the first meeting: Eugene Pyle, Presidentg Cloyd Kalp, Vice Presidentg Bus Winebrenner, Secretary: and Emerson Campbell, Treasurer. Allthough handi- capped due to the uncentralized location of our high school, the Hi-Y has prog- ressed and has been an advantage to the school. No one will forget the vocational ind yourself campaigns sponsored by this club during the last part of the second semesters. Last fall the leadership of the Hi-Y Club was turned over to Mr. John Clawson. New oHicers were elected to serve the term of 1928-29. 47 QLD . :ml 14 mm all Q' for we Eine :mil Mnlh M UW ,W . i..2N.51Q,,... . LATIN CLUB OFFICERS President ....... ............ . . .
