Cause every Weary brain And every saddened heart, Forget its grievous pain And cheerfulness impart. Ye fitful Fates, be kind, Thy richest blessings send, May smiles and joyous minds This little book attend. Then go, ye lines, and see, Ere brightest hope declines, What your success shall be, That fortune you assigns. Kind reader, do not spurn This product of our youth, But from its contents glean The charm of dream and truth. CONTENTS . . . BOOK ONE The School BOOK TWO The Activities BOOK THREE The Athletics BOOK FOUR On our way home BooK ONE THE SCHGOL THE BCDARD OF EDUCATICN The Board of Education of the Derry Borough Schools is composed of five of the foremost citizens of our community. They are Mr. Roy M. Myers, Mrs. W. B. George, Mr. H. Miller, Mr. Charles J. Hammer, and Mr. W. Scott Plummer. Mr. Roy M. Meyers was elected president, Mrs. W. Bruce George, vice presidentg Mr. Harry M. Miller, secretary. The First National Bank acts as treasurer, Mr. J. Fred Kuntz being the active treasurer. The Board meets on the first Monday of every month to dis- cuss the affairs that are vital to the youth of Derry and to the administration of the schools. When President Roy M. Meyers raps for order, the meeting is olhcially opened. With the recording of the names of the directors present, the minutes of the previous meeting are read and approved, and any unfinished business attended to. This Board occasionally appoints standing committees. It has always been able to function harmoniously as a whole and, at the same time, expedite its work. When there is need of a committee or committees, President Roy Meyers has the power to appoint them. The Board has control of all affairs that deal with improve- ments of the schools, for example, it was in charge of the recent addition to the high school building. Our respects go to Mr. A. C. Swartz, who also donated much of his time in the preliminary work of securing the recent gov- ernment grant in connection with the new addition. The Derry Board of Education should also be commended for providing an outstanding educational program at a minimum cost to the local taxpayers. This is evidenced by the fact that the facilities have been ever improving, yet the tax millages have been much lower than in most cities and towns. THE 1937 DERRIAN 187 THE 1937 DERRIAN -,. .. . ...., SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL PRINCIPAL SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL What was written by John Locke in 1692 is just as applicable for the well-being of the boy or girl of 1937,-- A sound mind in a sound body is a short but a full description of a happy state in this world. He who has these two has little more to desire: and he who lacks either will be but little the better for anything else. One's happiness and contentment is, at least in part, of his own making. For many years our schools have been developing and strengthening the minds of our youthg often with but little thought of our responsibility in stimulating and invigorating that temple in which the mind re- sides-the body. One of our future aims must surely be to create a more reasonable balance between these two and to give to each its appropriate place. E. M. MCKELVEY. N If 1 As commencement comes each year to the high schools of our country, turning out an ever increasing number colleges number colleges of graduates, there is a marked trend of the to raise their entrance requirements as the of applications for entrance increases. Many are refusing to admit pupils unless all grades are in the upper two-fifths of their classes, while most of them are refusing to accept any mark as low as D. This means that if pupils expect to go away to college, they must do the type of work which will give them the proper grade. There are few high school students who have enough time to do all their studying during school hours. It is well to establish regular hours at home during the first week of school and then continue them regularly. WILLIAM H. LANDIS. PRINCIPAL MR.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY From the time we were Freshmen, we have been ever prom- inent in llerry l-Eorough High School affairs, therefore, the pride which we take in our class must he pardoned. One lovely September day in 123234, a new class entered the high school. Since we were just as green as most newcomers in secondary schools, we furnished the Seniors with much amuse- ment. llowever, our advisors, Miss Kist and Mr. Landis, helped us to overcome these amusing hahits. ln a few weeks we held a class meeting, at this time we chose blue and gold as our class colors, the yellow tea rose as our flower, and Semper Figlelisn as our motto. We elected as our president. Freddie Stimer, a very active nicmher ol' the class As we were determined to show the upper classmen that we had real talent in our class, both sections ousfnted niiustrel shows.

We have certainly kept this promise, for this has been the most successful period thus far. Being a very progressive class, we broke away from the tradition of having a boy as Junior pres- ident. Dorothy Snoddy has proved the ability of a girl as a class president, because she has helped us greatly in making this year a roaring success. The first event of great importance was the arrival of our class rings, which we consider the handsomest rings ever made. Our outstanding triumph, the presentation of the Junior Class Play, Dying to Live, was on January 15. This was a greater success than even we had dreamed of. Since our Junior boys had already gained such a good record in basketball, the girls also wanted to have a team. For boys our class had two basketball teams, which scored many victories over the other class teams. Although the girls' team was not quite so brilliant, they kept up a fair record. We sponsored two successful bake sales this year to help pay the expenses of our prom, which we shall en- deavor to make the best ever held in DQ1'1'y High School. Since we Juniors have accomplished so much, we are anticipating even more important achievements as Seniors. i215 1 CLASS OF THIRTY-NINE Having built the foundation for its education in grade school, the Class of' Thirty-nine entered triumphantly into the begin- ning ot' a long march towards a bigger and better education.

Many greenies were thrilled when the coach called on one of them to warm up. -Q Another highlight ol' our pilgrimage was a one-act farce en- acted by seven students in chapel for the benefit of the high school. This was a rather flashy comedy, the title being The Orange- tlolored Necktiefi Thus, the year passed swiftly and happily. Upon our entrance to the Sophomore year, our hearts were filled with prideg and our heads, with exciting thoughts of greater possibilities than our freshman year.

THE 1937 DERRIAN had now been completed, the thoughts that excited us were mainly those of basketball teams, school dances and parties, gym classes, and dancing classes. Both the boys and the girls had basketball teams. With such players as George Toth, Boyd Baughmzui and Glenn Pryce our class had great hopes for the boy's team. Mari- an Kolb, Andrea Heacox and Marian Strupp upheld the reputa- of the girl's team. Many of the Sophomore boys helped make up our football squad, and many of our girls were members of the Glee Club and Mixed Chorus. The officers for our Sophomore year have been: President, Howard Allison, vice president, Glenn Pryceg treasurer, Thomas Henryg and Student Council representative, Jim Humphreys. By doing our best at all times, we hope to keep up our march through high school and enjoy our studies together with our extra- classroom activities. 4235 i i PETER BERCIA .... HELEN STIFFLER.. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY ln the early part of September, 1936, the Freshman class be- came a part of the student body of Derry Borough High School. VVe were welcomed by our principal, ou1' teachers, and our upper- classmen. The class nziving been divided into two groups, everyone be- came earnestly engaged in an interesting schedule, which we had planned at the closing of last year's term. lt consisted of two new subjects, Latin and Vivil Government, as well as a continua- tion ol' science and English. There was also a more advanced form of mathematics, known to most high school students as algebra. In the early part of our iirst semester in high school we elected a dependable group of class officers, which included the following pupils: Howard Fritz, presidentg Bob Walters, vice pres- Edward Mowry, secretaryg and identg Peter liercia, treasurerg to the Student Council. At the same time as the election of the class oflicers, we decided on class llelen Stifller, representative colors and a class flower. Crimson and gold were the colors most pupils had selected as their favorites, and the American Beauty Rose was unanimously chosen by us as our class flower. THE 1937 DERRIAN 1245 HOWARD FRITZ ....

Q We have in our group pupils who are interested in music, and many Freshmen pupils are in the Girls' Chorus and Boys' Chorusg others are in the high school orchestra. Among our boys we have found some very enthusiastic ath- letes. Some of the larger boys played football and, as beginners, did very well. A number of other boys became interested in basketballg some, besides helping their class team, made the Junior Varsity team. Our girls, not wanting to be surpassed by the boys, have started a basketball team of their owng they, however, have not met with as much success as their fellow-classmates, the boys. Although we have not made what could be called a brilliant beginning, we feel sure that, in the three remaining years, we shall have ample opportunity to show what we are capable of doing. 1257 UNDERLLASSMEN PERSGNALITIES . . The Juniors certainly do not lack interesting personalities. Is any one un- acquainted with Charles Dias, who dumbfounds his classmates with twenty-sylla- ble words? But alas, he is unable to spell those words. Fred Stiffler also deafens everyone with his continual line of chatter. In contrast to Fred is Jack McBroom, who never has a thing to say. Jim Gilchrist, always rattling change in his pock- ets, represents the capital of the class. Nor could we get along without good- natured Jim Keough, although we know he will never stop borrowing someone':21 geometry or English. And who are those two young men writing so diligently? Ah, yes! They are Bill King and Mickey Tepper, writing burning epistles to .1-? But let us not neglect the Big Four, the powers behind the throne-Eleanor Kuntz, Catherine Yealy, Nancy Stifller, and Marjorie Jones, they look at life from the gigglier side of the road. We also have a dreamer, Mary Elizabeth Kolb, who would like to know what the future holds for her. But she is not the sole inhabitant of Dreamland 5 Gale Barnhart, too, dreams of her Chattering One. A Varied are the interests of the Sophomores! Thomas Henry, formerly an active member of our class, is now a bookwormg his favorite author is Emily Post. Detective work may be necessary to decide the cause of Marlynn Clark's sudden interest in school, but she is undoubtedly near a nervous breakdown from attend- ing so many classes this term. Others of our class are going Hollywood. Eleanor Allison, for example, is planning to leave for Hollywood soon to act as Shirley Temple's stand-in. Then, there is Chuck Berkmyer, pining for a contract with M. G. M. to play Tarzan. Furthermore, Bob Sell is practicing his Will Rogers' slouch so that he may follow in the footsteps of that great comedian. We may also boast of an inventor, Hiram Cookg he is now improving his latest, the invisible radio, so that it can be put on the market. Even scavenger hunts are among the interests of our classmates. Five girls -Betty Payne, Marian Strupp, Ruth Beck, Eleanor Crummy, and June Craver are the participants, each with only one object. Betty is to locate the owner of automobile with the license NC720. Marian wants to find a boy by the name of Sampson Qnot Suitcase eitherl. Ruth Beck's eyes are directed toward Derry Township High School. While these three are hunting people, Eleanor Crummy has to find a possumg and June must find her Cote, The Freshmen class passes in review. First is Bill Snoddy, whose amusing antics have made him the clown of the class. After him comes quite an opposite type of boy, Bob Walters, whose female admirers are becoming more numerous every day. Next is Helen Shuster, usually a quiet little girl, but demure Helen becomes a rushing spitfire on the basketball floor. There is Edward Mowry, whose unruly hair causes him endless worry. Before the reviewing stand now is Helen Stifller, followed by a group of devoted young meng but these same young men may soon be driven away by her fiery temper. The parade continues with happy-go-lucky Fritz Yealy, accompanied by our gun-collector and artist, Alex Munroe. Martha Oliver appears on the scene, Martha, very intelligent and active, often surprises one by her conversational ability. Nor can attention be denied Henry Toner, that well-known red-haired boy with the pleasing personality. Last, but not least in this parade of personalities, is Fred Gray, whose huge frame causes him such unnecessary self-consciousness. THE 1937 DERRIAN f26l BOOK TWO THE ACTIVITIES Z6 I .

THE 1937 DERRIAN 1287 Y X THE 1937 DERRIAN THE MALE CHORUS The Male Chorus is organized to provide an opportunity for the boys in the high school to gain a pleasurable experience in group singing and to aid them in becoming conscious of fine distinctions. This organ- ization is open to all boys in the high school. This chorus is an exrta-classroom activ- ity, and each member receives a fourth of a credit for each year of work. The group performs on various occasions and expects to participate in the May Festival at Greensburg, Pennsylvania, May 8, 1937. +++ THE GIRLS' CHORUS The Girls' Chorus is an organized activ- ity with Eleanor Crummy as president and Eleanor Kuntz as secretary. It is open to all high school girls accepted by the director. This organization uses an excellent type of secular and sacred music and offers unusual opportunity for a comprehensive growth in choral singing. This year the girls purchased robes which add dignity to their performances. The robes are white with blue collars and are most effective. May this be a tradition! This group performs each Christmas for the customary Candle Light service in the high school and, for the past two years has given delightful Christmas carol programs in the Derry Methodist Church. Further- more, the organization entertains the stu- dent body in enjoyable assembly programs and just recently sang for the Westmore- land County Teachers' Institute, at Greens- burg, Pennsylvania. It expects to partici- pate in the May Festival to be held at Greensburg, May 8, 1937. This event is sponsored by the Westmoreland County music supervisors. 1293 THE GRCHESTRA The orchestra is an extra-classroom ac- tivity, and any student of the high school is eligible to membership, if accepted by the director. This organization provides good and appropriate music, as evidenced in the various class plays. For these plays, it furnishes the incidental music before the curtain is opened and between acts. It aids the assembly programs and occasionally renders special numbers.

Everything was solved, however, and the audience enjoyed the usual happy ending.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY QRehearsaIJ JUNIOR CLASS PLAY 32 THE 1937 DERRIAN SENIOR CLASS PLAY Can you imagine Otis Wadsworth in love? That is exactly what happened in the Senior Class play, Laugh Clown, which was pre- sented April 13, 1937. Otis, as Fritz Ben- ton, a tough guy, and Ralph Henry as Danny Polling, were employed by Mrs. Hur- ley QBetty Van Weyj, a fussy person. Sub- sequently, Pat Hurley fMary Jane Duncanl and Danny fell in love, as did Fritz with the Hurley maid fOlga Garverl. The play, however, was not all romance. A dash of mystery was added by the theft of the 840,000 diamond which Arthur Hur- ley CWoodward Ruperty presented to his fiancee, Dale Terrence CMarie Akinsb. Ar- thur Shirey was excellent as the dapper doc- tor who had been Dale's husband and a clever thief, and who now was the suitor of Evelyn Hurley CRita Oligherl. More love interest was added by Gallagher Starling QLois McKowenD and Arthur. Comedy was supplied by Virgil Bridge, as Aunt Sue, and by her black boy friend, Pete Basciano. The death of the gardener CWalter Smith? complicated the action, but all was success- fully solved by the detective CErnest Selll 5 and the play ended happily. Despite Eleanor Trogler's withdrawal from the cast and the postponement of the play, it was pronounced a success. C333 D. Snoddy, O. Garver. Second row: H. Allison Fritz, P. McCuIIy Qabsentj. The Student Council is an organization which was formed in 1930 by Pro- fessor E. M. McKelvey. In the next year, 1931, Mr. C. Eisenhart took an active interest in the organization also, and became their faculty advisor. ln 1930, the Student Council consisted of ten members, but now, due to a change in the Constitution, there are eight. Formerly, the president of the Senior class automatically became the Student Council President, but now he is elected from the Senior class by the student body. The only other of-Beer, the Secretary, is the other Senior member of the Student Council. The purpose of this organization is just what its name implies. It is a body which works for the best interests of the studentsg they, in turn, place their prob- lems before the council members so that they may have something on which to work. They take charge of all school functionsg namely, the Annual Home-coming .Dance at the close of the football season, all high school parties, the publication of the Derrian, sale of Junior and Senior Class Play tickets, the Questionnaire, sale of tickets for home basketball games and other smaller duties. As a whole, the Student Council is a very efficient organization. Under the capable guidance of the faculty advisor, Mr. W. H. Landis, and with the expert advice of Professor E. M. Mclielvey, they assist the student body in many ways and work for their benefit. During this school year of 1936-37, the outstanding event showing the abil- ity of the Student Council was the Alumni Home-coming Dance, for which the members very efiiciently carried out the necessary preparations to make it a suc- cessg and the compliments our patrons gave them well repaid them for their efforts. Later, they sponsored two high school party-dancesg but preceding the latter dance, a questionnaire was prepared by the members and given to the student body. Consequently, after learning in detail the wants of the students, the last party-dance was much more successful. In March, work was begun on the Derriang for this the members obtained all and even more of the advertise- ments necessary, and worked dilligently in every way possible to make it a success. We may well say that this body is an efficient organization that lives up to its name, The Student Council.

Shaffer, H. Alli- son, H. Fritz. The Derrian staff is composed of six Seniors, four Juniors, five Sophomores, and four Freshmen. Since the annual is being sponsored by the Student Council, the members of that organization are on the staff. The other member were ap- pointed by the class presidents. Miss Ankney, the literary adviser, has been untiring in her efforts to aid the staff. No one could have filled this place as capably as she has done, for, without her excellent advice and assistance, the staff could have done very little. Then too, when given this position, she had little or no information on which to work. As she was new in this field of activity, it was just a matter of Figure it out for yourself , but she did this to perfection. Mr. Landis and Mr. Bucci's assistance was so valuable that, without it, the book would amount to very little. They were always willing to help in other fields than their own, but the originality in their , work made it so excellent that we feel safe in saying that they have earned a per- manent position on the staff. But, most of all, it is due to Professor E. M. McKelvey that we are able to publish this book, the first by Derry High School for a number of years. Words cannot describe the effort put forth by the student members to make this book a success. They were only too happy to put into writing their appre- ciation of the advantages and privileges offered by our school. Working diligently to the finish, they proved themselves to be very loyal to their schoolg and, having reached their goal, both they and we are proud of their effort. If our student staff members do their work as excellently in the future as they have done this year, the Derrian will always be a credit to our school. Division of the staff into departments facilitated the preparation of material. No sharp division line, however, was ever recognized, there has been splendid co- operation among all departments. That perfection is attained only after long and unceasing labor is recognized by the Derrian staff. Therefore, the beginning having been made, they are ex- pecting to follow the developments in every issue of the Derrian. They are sure that, unless the spirit that has always been found in Derry High School undergoes a violent change, each new publication will be another step higher. May it never be otherwise! f35l SCENES OF ACTIVITY school session. Rushing through the halls. Mr. Builer is always on the job. ' A 111160914 Mr. Bovard's Sophomore History Class.

THE FGOTBALL SEASON With due respect to Scotland Yard, the Pinkertons and the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, your correspondent now lays claim to a humble niche in whatever Hall of Fame is reserved for those who have carried out the order, Get your Man! When the gridiron season began in the latter part of August, the people of Derry saw on the playing field the finest collection of football man-power they had ever reviewed. They had evidenced a surge of enthusiasm which had been lack- ing in other years. On the chalk-barred field, one saw clean-limbed youngsters who wrote new gridiron sagas and proved themselves in terms of greater speed and finer living and keener execution. Every boy is a top-notcher, capable of ranking with the best of them when the last punt has boomed down the field and the final whistle has blown. Rambler destinies rose to a new peak with the recent appointment of Pat Bucci as Athletics Director for Derry High School. An enthusiastic supporter and promoter of the general improvement and expansion of the program spon- sored by the institution, Pat is thoroughly acquainted with athletics. The able guidance of their coach went far toward inspiring the Ramblers to come through this great season with flying colors. In defeating Norwin, a double A team, and also winning the Westmore- land County Class B championship, the fighting Ramblers accomplished feats equalled by no others in the history of the school. On the All-County Class B team, Glasser and Keough received first awards at the end positionsg Bolinger and Hanna were awarded second team center and quarterback respectively. Bucci and Henry received honorable mention as guard and fullback respectively. FOOTBALL GAMES IN REVIEW The season opened in the Johnstown Point Stadium under the fioodlights. THE 1937 DERRIAN 138i THE 1937 DERRIAN With a large crowd on hand, the game ended suddenly in the second period with no score. A misunderstanding, which was never settled, ended a great battle. The Ramblers got their first taste of a tough schedule on Sep- tember 26 on their home grounds, the New Derry field. This was the first home game in several years. After valiant fight- ing, an invading East Pittsburgh eleven was repulsed by the score of 21 to 0. With the rough edges smoothed out, the Ramblers continued their drive to greater heights as a heavy and powerful Apollo High team was conquered 7-0. Keough's beautiful one-hand catch of a pass fiung by Bucci brought a well earned victory Apollo threatened in the last quarter, but the final whistle ended their stubborn drive with but two yards to go for a score. Journeying to Irwin, the Ramblers, with terrific odds against them, met a powerful Norwin High team and upset them by a score of 6-2. Norwin's two-point lead was overcome by a de- termined Derry team in the third period as Glasser took a pass on the eleven-yard line and crossed standing up. Strupp shared honors with Glasser and Basciano. The shower-room scene after the hectic battle will long live in the minds of the Ramblers. On October 16, Bolivar came and was subdued 14-0 in a con- test which featured many thrills. Held scoreless for two periods. Derry returned to life and scored two touchdowns on straight football, a sogy field hampered the aerial attack. Many sub- stitutes saw service in this fracas. The following Saturday saw the Derry boys playing their traditional rivals at Ligonier. The Ramblers played their poorest ball game of the season but suc- ceeded in extending their winning streak to five games, as Ligonier bowed 19-7. McWherter's run of seventy yards for a score after a pass interception was the feature of the game. - Showing signs of faltering, Derry visited Indiana on October 31 for the annual battle between the two schools. Going into the final quarter with a seven point lead, Derry erred miserably as Indiana recovered a fumbled punt on the one yard line and carried the ball over after four attempts at the line. The final score was 7-7, Derry having made their touchdown in the third period with Bucci carrying the ball over on a series of line plunges. This was a costly game for Derry because they were deprived of the services of their left halfback, Jimmy McWherter, who was injured and ordered to drop football for the rest of the season. The Homecoming Day game with Youngwood provided thrills that will never be forgotten. Early in the game, Derry drove to YoungWood's five yard line but failed to score, as a fumble at this point was recovered by Youngwood. 'In the second period Youngwood scored as Brandt, one of the best backs Derry played against this year, took a pass and raced twenty yards for a touchdown. Not until the third quarter, when Youngwood scored again and had a lead of 13-0, did the Derry offensive begin to function. The Ramblers, however, scored only once after knocking on Youngwood's front door not less than five times during the last half. The game ended with Derry in possession of the ball on Young- wood's one-half yard line. Because of the ineligibility of a Youngwood player, the Ramblers were later awarded the game and the Westmoreland County Class B Championship. fContinued On Page 437 P PAT BUCCI '91 C393 First F.

It was very enthusiastically welcomed by these young peopleg as soon as it was completed, everyone was anxious to use it. Rasketballs started to fly in all directions when practice was called for the first time. The boys, who appeared lost on this spacious floor, worked with zeal. Confronted with the problem of molding a team from inexperienced candi- dates, Coach Bucci attacked this problem squarely and, in a short time, had the boys contributing to the best of their ability. This year Derry, along with Hurst, Youngwood, East Huntingdon, Derry Township, and Dunbar, was a member of Section X of the W. P. I. A. L. In addition to these league games, there was arranged a very attractive schedule with other opponents. Despite the stiff opposition, Derry did well in league competition. They won two games, defeated East Huntingdon on their home floorg and they followed this victory by winning at Youngwood in an overtime game. Doing much better in non-league games, they lost only to Greensburg and Sewickley Township. At the Westmoreland County Tournament in the Greensburg gym on March 5, the Franklin Township quintet came from behind and scored six points in the last minute of play, the result being a 37-31 defeat for Derry. This game brought to a close a season that was filled with many thrills and Merriwell finishes. High scoring honors for the team go to Frank Glasser, although he was hard pressed by Wingard and Hanna.

BOYS Soon after the basketball season opened, Coach Bucci began a series of class games for the purpose of building material for the following season. Special at- tention was given to Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors. The boys of seventh and eight grades were also included in these class scraps. In all, over seventy boys participated. The games were played immediately after school and were well attended. Shrill screams from thrills echoed through the gymnasium as Freshmen defeated Seniors, Sophomores defeated Juniors, Seventh Graders defeated Eighth Graders, and vice versa. Many promising candidates were getting experience for Varsity service. As the season was being brought to a close, these underclassmen showed good possibilities. In the latter part of April, the warm weather encouraged the boys to throw a baseballg therefore, the basketball was finally put away until another season begins. Just before the regular season closed, Coach Bucci selected a Junior Varsity. composed of eighteen boys, in the preliminary games they lost one and won one. They were defeated by the Hurst Junior Varsity 16-7, but turned the tables on Sewickley Township Junior Varsity 21-15. JUNIOR VARSITY LINE-UP Forwards-Fulcomer, Sylvester, Pryce, Wingard, Poloskey.

GIRLS Not to deny the girls the use of the gymnasium, Coach Bucci started inter- class games, which were welcomed by the girls eager to take part. These games did not start until the first of March and lasted until the last week of April. Because of the players' lack of experience, the first games were slow, but as the season progressed, many promising girl basketball players were detected. The Senior team had several real shooters in Lowman, Anderson and Valkog under the hoop they were dead shots. The Eighth Grade Girls were substitutes for the Senior team. The Junior team fared well, as Kuntz and Stifiier starred in every contest. Another of their outstanding players was Amend. The Sophomore team had Strupp, Kolb, Shirey and Clark, these four made things difiicult for their opponents. The Freshman team failed to win a game, but Shuster, Stifiler and Sharrets -the three S's of the Freshman team-did good work. PERSONNEL OF THE TEAMS SENIORS JUNIORS SOPH. FRESH.

The many-sided career of Horace Mann makes him an appealing figure to all groups of American life. As legislator, author of social reform, as secretary, and as college president, he pioneered in a dozen fields which educational groups can emphasize. To him, more than any other single person, we are indebted for the reality of the dream which the founders of the American Repub- lic had of education for all the citizens in- stead of the privileged few alone. Yet, Mann's active work in developing the public school system in the United States, was done in only eleven years, from the time of his appointment in 1837, at the age of 41, as the first secretary of the first Massachusetts Board of Education until his resignation from that post in 1848 to help fight for the anti-slavery cause in Congress. He gave six more years to higher education, as pres- ident of Antioch College from 1853 to his death in 1859, and through all this period he wrote and talked and advised with other educational leaders in helping to develop the school systems not only in the several American states but also in Europe and South America. The eleven years as secre- tary of the Massachusetts Board of Educa- tion, however, were the period in which, with untiring zeal, he wrought out his con- ception of what common school education in a democracy could and should be, and inspired the people of Massachusetts and the other states to give education for every- THE 1937 DERRIAN l44l FE CDF HORACE MANN one the high place which it should have in our national life. It was Horace Mann's good fortune to come to the heighth of his powers just at the time that the nation was reaching the point of having a surplus over the barest necessities, which it could use to develop those activities of the mind and the spirit which make the difference between barbar- ism and civilization. It was the nation's good fortune that it found just at this time, a man with the penetrating vision to see that a democratic government and society cannot survive except they draw from far and wide through an educated citizenry. These thoughts also serve to recall to us the stage our country had reached when Horace Mann did his profoundly creative work. We were young, vigorous, and crude. We were just beginning to have enough wealth to teach ourselves to be civilized. Horace Mann showed us where we must begin, to make a civilized democracy work, and persuaded us to put a goodly share of our wealth into the challenging effort to make of our education the tool is should be. On June 30, 1837, Mann wrote in his journal: This morning I communicated my acceptance of the Secretaryship .... Henceforth so long as I hold this office, I devote myself to the supermost welfare of mankind on earth .... I have faith in the improvability of the race. It was that faith which laid the foundation of the free public school movement in America. -William H. Landis.

Its meaning should also include the equipment needed to wake and distribute electricity: tur- bines and water wheel generators, transformers, remote control sys- tems - the list seems endless, some 30,000 products.
