She is an example of what an institution of learning can do for an individual who has determination to take advant- age of opportunities offered by it. Three event- ful years have proved what she is capable of. The way she undertakes things spells nothing but suc- cess for her in the future. Esther's executive ability equals that of any man. Weare sure that if all men were as well equip- ped', they would not hesitate to give women the ballot. Esther does not seem to fancy men, still we fell confident her attention is in that direction, and that she is looking for the best which that field can offer. 22 .tw claims made on the posters.

Those who attend the Minisink Society can tell you that Elizabeth is an elocutionist. In fact she starred in the girl's special selection, The Most Popular Girl of the Normal School, by virtue of the fact that she alone had had the required number of beaux since entering Normal. While beaux are Elizabeth's weakness, Latin is her strong- hold. She is Prof. Wannemaker's stand-by.

She is always on time for the History of Education class, unless the train leaves Hoboken late. or fails to stop at Portland. Just 11ow Ruth is following a new course of learning, having started the special subject of D. Harold. Up to this time her chief delight has been the study of Virgil, which is no more than natural, because when living on a farm she spent the most of her time in the training of horses. Well, here is good luck to you, Ruth, and here is hoping that you will arrive at Paradise, 24 U Misiisesaasam NLARGU liRI'l'l'Q Blat? I I.'l'lCl,-H Dutch, Ncsqnclnming, P Shakespearean Society.

One is always reminded of some fair flower when one gazes at her. She is a real girl -'charming in her repose, grace, and refinement. Marguerite bestows smiles, not frowns, She is a very conscientious student, especially of German, which she persists in calling Dutch, probably due to association of ideas psychologically speaking. Marguerite's one disappointment in life is that Medico-Chi is not a co-educational institution, for she is sure she would enjoy a course there For two reasons. The only consolation to be offered is that Marguerite may study Dutch after she leaves Normal. Fl,o1u+3Nc14: Gimcic Ilia::AN- lTlm'cy, Secretary Minisink Society, '16.

I She doesn't believe in sacrificing her health for hlgh marks. However, she generally does manage to return to school within a month after the begillrling of each term. Her tardiness only acts'as a means of proving her value to us, for she is a true missionary, mothering all stray chil- dren ill the vicinity, and enlightening her benighted neighbors as to the proper way to sew a seam. 25 XVcathcrly, P PICARI.

One of Pearl's daily duties is to instruct the young men of the day student body as to the kind of neckties they shall wear the following day. Pearl received her training along this line from a tie inspector. It has been said that a woman is known by her speech. Pearl certainly verifies this statement, for her voice continually jingles out a world of merrimentf' even when she tells some poor little boy to leave the room in which she is teaching. We feel certain that if Edgar Allen Poe could have heard Pearl's melodious voice he would have added another stanza to The Bells. .l2r,IzA1slf3'l'H T. BISNSUN- Pinkie, h Dickson City, Pa.

Her friends are numerous, for she is one who will not return kindness with treachery. The surround- ings are immediately brightened by her presence. Pinkie was an honorary member of the Shakes- pearean Program Committee. It could not get along without her. When she entertained us with her oratorical ability, we agreed that William Jen- nings Bryan sank into oblivion when compared with her. As for moving pictures, well Pinkie does not agree with Prof. Walter that they are detrimental to society, because she has a seat reserved every Saturday. 26 1 Minieeeeaean 1 .XN NA I . lloinx Scranton, Pa.

There are two things she has as hobbies at school, the- first is, waiting for the mail from New York, and the second is testing her cuisine abilities much to our delight. Schatz distinguished herself by being an active member of the Jolly Eight. She participated in all the Geology trips on which she received such inspiration from the wind, waves, rocks, that she is constantly writing letters to George. Her greatest asset is a big, generous heart. 28 V 7ARRlCN G. IBUNN-- lluunief' Miuiersaaeam U Namicolcc. Pa. President Minisink Literary Society: Bible Chorusg Glee Clubg Y. M. C.

Gord'on's career-at Normal has been an eventful o11e from the Physics class down to the matter of choosing room-mates. He has been termed a sage, -his class work and noble brow corrobate the name. He believes in efliciency and neatness in everything he undertakes and never allows any trival affairs to distract him from his main pur- pose. We all wish him success and a pocket full of money. 32 LAURA M. CLA11 li-h,L2l.lll'2l,n Nanlicoke, Pa. Minisink Society, Y. W. C.

The above is Lau1'a's logic-gleaned, we fear, from no book and on no subject mentioned in the catalogue. It may answer her purpose, and again it may not, for the future is shrouded in mystery. Even in these modern days a woman may 1'etain the power to change her mind and no questions asked. That she will do something worth while goes without saying, for this demure maiden is a shark in Latin and a wonder in' Mathematics.

We expect to hear of her being a colossal success at ally undertaking, and, although the Oracle at Delllhi has not .been consulted, we feel safe in say- QHE that she will not teach school all her life.

Ruth was born on the fourteenth of Febru- ary, a vertible gift ol' Cupid, and she was given for a middle name that of the worthy saint upon whose anniversary she arrived. As a rule she is so quiet we should not realize her presence if our eyesight were not so good. But like all other quiet forces of which poets sing, she does her work. Of all red letter days to her, Monday is the reddest, especially about the time that the Auburn mail arrives. She is taking a thorough correspond- ence course in Art and rumor declares her a most promising student. Her slogan is, Sozodont for the teeth. lvlfxuu-3 A. CONl'QR'l'ON--HIQC2l,H Carbonclale, Pa.

Her reputation for brilliancy was established be- fore she came to us, for she was valedictorian of her class in the Throop High School, and since her arrival here she has lived up to that reputation and has proved her ability, not only in scholarship but along other lilies as well.

Emery, better known as Duck, was one of the best Model School teachers of the class of 1916. Whenever a substitute teacher was required in the higher grades the children always asked for Mr. Gordon, and it was a happy class room indeed, when Mr. Gordon occupied the teacher's chair. Duck must also be mentioned in connection with athletics. He was a great basket-ball enthu- siast, having served on three basket-ball teams dur- ing his four years at 'Normal--Company G, Normal Varsity, and Day 'Students' Team, of which he was coach. V We might add that Emery intends to spend his summer vacation in and around the Stroudsburg Court House. There's a reason. .TESSIE E. GORDON- Chick, New York City, N. Y.

She doesn't leave the trouble of worry to the facultyg she worries for herself, but not enough to hurt'er. Chick's name will go down in the annals of the school on account of her ability as a demonstrator of the Fox Trot, and her standard as a student. 49 ci ANNA V. G-MNAMAN- Granny, Duryca, Pa.

' Norine is a girl who never be'lieves in pushing herself to be looked over, admired, and discussed. Yet, despite her reserve, we have gleaned some interesting facts about this young lady, from Mont- dale, Pa. First of all she is a clever artist, and has had some special training along that line. Next, she can string a rhyme with the best of them. One would never suppose, 'to gaze at Norine, that she can hold an audience spellbound, con- vulsed with laughter sometimes, while at other times she entertains by her many and varied stunts. Once in a while she is leader in a par- ade: twice in a while, an acrobat, 'most all the while, an impersonator. Lest we forget. Nor- ine is a graduate of St. Patrick's Parochial School, in Olyphant but hails originally from Montdale, Pa. 50 lx llIlllN C llmmuniv 'liaclclyf' f XfVilkes-l13arre, Pa. Shakespearean Society.

When it came to contributing to society programs, Kaddy was a most enthusiastic and in- teresting performer. As a violinist, we hope to see in her, a female Pagininni--but Kaddy's one aspira- tion is to be a prima donnae-She longs for grand opera where she may display her talent in genuine Geraldine Farrar style. She has both perseverence and stick-to-it-tiveness in her makeup, as may be shown by the fact that she has conquered her habit of eternal worrying. In her Junior year, we dubbed her Lucy Worry, for her chief cry was, Did y-ou hear that we have an exam. in Geometry th1'ee weeks from Wednesday? She is an unceas- ingly hard worker, and we feel assured that a per- sonality such as Kaddy Haggerty's will win un- limited success, whether it be in the field oi' music or of teaching.

There is one thing that she possesses besides a protector--that is, a jewel of a disposition. No one ever hears Mary voicing her opinion about anyone: she goes her own sweet way and believes in letting other people do the same. She at all times displays refinement and good breed- ing in every speech and action. She is a conscien- tious student and a friend to be trusted. Her favorite poet is Moore, for her best loved quotation is, There's nothing half so sweet in life as love's young dream. Easton, Pa. Cast of Gold Bug g Treas. of Class 1914-19153 Glee Club, Y. M. C.

When we first knew her she laid down the most rigid and strict principles anyone would wish to hear. These principles gradually have grown less since the time she shocked us by appearing in public with Bob, She graduated from Pen Argyl High School in 1914 with an honor and has continued to do her work well in this institution. Whenever she is set a task that the rest can't do, she buckles down till she puts it through. From her being so eflicient in school work we are positive her future life will be just as eflicient and even more so than most peo- ple's lives. 54 V Minisrsaasan U S'l'IQI,I.A lvl.

We should judge that her training in zoology was neglected, from the fact that on one of these ex- cursions she learnedto her surprise that a certain biped was a turkey. She was so inspired by the knowledge she received that she decided to increase the number of her trips so that she might become better acquainted with more of the wonders of na- ture. Her liking for the country is perhaps also due to the fact that parsons have parishes there.

Kell came to us from Plains in the Fall of 1912 and right glad we were to have him. He is somewhat of a mathematician and has a great fond- ness for curves, as is illustrated by sections of his corporal substance. This may be because he sup- ports such a weight of intellect or perhaps it comes from carrying the pig-skin down the field with three or four of his opponents on his back. Even if he has curves he never let that foot-ball or basket-ball slip, because his every-ready bread hooks were always swinging in the air and some- how or other would always manage to get that ball. Kell is always a favorite with the queens and has some ability as a base-ball man, and we hope that some time later in life he may make a fair catch. C1-113s'rER E.

Imagine the superb result attained when its influence is felt from earliest childhood. Some fellows grow up to be afraid of girls, but Chet, because of his constant association with so great a variety, shuns them, perhaps because of perfect understanding rather than from fear. Per- haps that is why he wanders around the boy's dormitory when he should be in pursuit of letters. When he plays basket-ball all declare him grace- ful? when he drives Dandy all vote him braveg but Chet remains callous to all these advances of the fair sex, and quietly but determinedly pursues his way to the Sunset Land of Fame and Fortune. 59 1 iviinises sat is 1 JOHN J. liosico- Aeneas, Hou'l'1f:Ns1f: A.

She has proved to her classmates the real meaning of the word--friendship. She has a genial disposition and is one of those who al- ways boost, never knock. Her smile has won for her the name Srniler. Her executive ability was tested recently when she was elected temporary hall teacher, and as usual, she proved her worth. Mac attended all the basket-ball games, because-well because she liked to. Even though she is a senior she still be- lieves in St, Nick and will be one of Lacka- wanna's prospective teachers unless he interferes. We wish Mac success and happiness in the Years to coine, and realize she leaves us the better for knowing her. , 6 5 I? V MHNHSPEAREAN U J li.A'l'1l1.1f:1-:N NICCSINNIS-nLCCll,H jcssnp, la.

Not so, we fear, l'or some day Prince Charming will arrive on the scene and steal our maiden away.

No one has ever been scientific enough to discover the whys and the wherefores -it just happen- ed. Two years ago, Kitty ente1'ed E. S. N. S. as a shy, taciturn, delicate miss-today she is joker, optimist, and all-round athlete. So complete has been the metamorphosis, that from the discourag- ing business of falling and spraining ankles every now and then, Kitty has become a devotee of physi- cal training and has learned to balance herself like a regular gymnast. Let us not forget to add that her chief disciple in fun and companion in mischief is the far-famed Sadie Coyneg that once in a while Kitty indulges in a philosophical mood and that she studies industriously.

On the hall May is one of the jolliest and noisiest. She delights in playing tricks and is often the instigator of excitement on the hall, which the teacher never suspects, because of May's apparent disregard of such things.

Time banished all doubts and mis- givings, and today he stands as one of our ac- complished men. He has often been termed a philosopher-and well he may be, for he has the fundamental requisites, originality and ability to write poetry. Freddy is also an orator and a writer of fiction. We can truly say t.hat he is a man oi' letters. Freddy is full of animation and argumenta- tion. He spends his leisure time in athletic sports and in arguing weighty questions with anyone who will argue with hin1. He likes to take a chance, and has gambled extensively with Stocks these last two years. We are sure he is destined to be a g1'eat man some day. IWQXRIIC M. YVALSII-- li1'iCk, Xfvilkcs-llarrc, Pa.

Nell, a graduate of the Wilkes-Barre High School, arrived at our doors one day in the Fall ol? 1914 about a week after school had opened. This short delay, however, does not indicate that Nell was slow, for no more conscientious student ever joined us. It was no unusual sight to walk into iNell's room and Iind her drawing sketches in the air of whatever she happened to be studying. She was not selfish with the knowledge she possessed and gave untiringly to less fortunate sisters. It was a matter of current comment among her friends that she would never believe anything she was told until after she had been defeated in a sharp argument.

New- ton has special ability for tickling the ivories much to the pleasure and admiration ol' the other side of the houe. Newton delights in the study of Latin, Grammar, and other subjects that re- quire deep thought. He has some of the sa111e failings that other 'members of our class have, mainly eating to excess and sleeping until the sun is well up. He is always a favorite with the mem- bers ol' his hall as well as being a favorite with members of other halls. In Newton we lind some ability for twirling the sphere over the home plate on the base-ball diamond, and if he is not careful, later in life he may lose his head and let a runner slide safe home. lxN S Vlllll un Uniondale.

Bobby is a great deep sea fisher and a lucky one too. The only thing we have against him is his enormous appetite. He has been stuiiing food in that oritice under his nose for about nine- teen years and sleeping about twelve hours each day for the same time, and strange to say he has not enough of either as yet. Bobby entertains us at times with his melodious voice in society, on the foot-'ball field, and in the gymnasium. It is a grand sight to see him running up and down the foot-ball field as fast as his short legs can carry him, with his upper extremities oscillating in the atmosphere much the same as a wind-mill, and pouring forth sounds from his mouth that resemble thunder. He is always ready for an argument and al- ways persists that he is right. Nevertheless Bobby is an honest, true friend, and the only double thing about him is his chin. Bangor, Pa.

Upon its arrival, classmates immediately became acquainted with each other and one by one learnecl to know the instructors. each of whom informed us that his was the most important subject. Prof. Cassel is escorting us through the mysteries of Chemistry and we are passing through the oltl orcleal of laboratory, which takes a great cleal of 101 Umitvtsesaaisatvii our time from the movies. Then, in Zoology, it is bugs -and worms and snakes and toads and mice. In Literature we are introduced right and .left to those who have spilled ink worthily, while under the direction of Miss Kurtz we daily approximate accuracy. Psychology teaches us to know ourselves but it remains for Methods to show us how to manage others. In Latin class we learn to feel the power of Cicero as au orator while in .l-Iistolry we live again past ages.

This year, we have also seen stars. Extreme modesty prevents the writer from giving due praise to the intellectual and athletic ability of the class. ln spite of our opinion on the subject it may not be quite wise to say too much about the former until the visit of the State Board of Examiners, an occasion that one of our worthy professors does not allow us to forget. In athletics we can speak with more assurance, for much of that history is past, and as a result, Frank Boyle. Lawrence Shock. Har-old McGroarty, Anthony McCormick, and Harry Schmidt wear the letter. Bertha blames, Anna Law, Helen Helferty, and Adella Strohmeir represent the third-year class on the Girls' Basket-ball Team.

Under the direction of these officers and a committee, the reception given by the fthird-year class is expected to equal, if not surpass, former attempts of this kind.

' 113 11 Uttftttvttstettttaeftttvti C U C I ll lf Y. Rl. C. A. of the li. S. N. S. was organized in the year '93. Since then it has been the ambition of every member to increase its spiritual welfare and to extend its material prosperity. This year the organiza- tion has reached its largest enrollment. During the year the emphasis or slogan of its members has been on the C , and since this is the ideal, its in- llucnce has been felt, as can readily be seen on the different halls. Meetings are held every Sunday morning at 8 :3O and sometimes during the week. For every meeting there is a definitely assigned leader with an interesting topic, For 'twice during the school year a committee is appointed to make out a Y. KI. C. A. program. This is printed, and each member of the organiza- tion and the members of the faculty are given copies and are cordially invited to attend. Sometimes members of the faculty have kindly consented to ad- dress the meetings and some interesting addresses were made, which were thoroughly appreciated by those present. ln IQIS a room was set aside for the meetings of the organization. For this some of the industrious and interested members made most of the furni- ture-chairs, tables, a book-cabinet, etc. The Y. M. C. A. is one of the most active and most prominent organiza- tions in the school. lirom its members has been taken the Normal Quartette which frequently sings at the meetings and elsewhere. All the members of the Cabinet are active workers, and are interested in the welfare of the organiza- tion. 'llhis year the aim is to fill the book-cabinet with books which are well worth any person's reading, and from the way things are progressing this purpose will surely be accompltished. A most promising future is before the association and we feel sure that the influence of the Y. M. C. A. will be felt more and more in this institution as the years pass by. R0llICR'I' E. VVll.t,tAMs. 114 MHNHSPEAREAN Y. M. C. A. 1 tvittttisrs aaeatti I MONG the socializing factors in Normal life, none is more effective than the work of the Young VVomen's Christian Association. A short time after the establishment of the school this organization, which has done so much to elevate the lives of thousands of young women established a branch here, which has been actively engaged in the work until the present time. 'llhe object of our association is to reach all the girls and young women of America, to bring them under the sway of Christianity and its principles, to insure that this spirit dominates them in all their relation- ships, and to extend helpful influence upon women of less favored lands and races. ' 'l'he Association holds one religious meeting weekly, to which every girl is personally invited. During the winter term a special week of prayer is held to enliven and inspire the girls in their work. 'llhe members do not let their efforts cease there, however, but are constantly trying through per- sonal work to increase the membership and extend its elliciency as a working organization. During this year the spirit manifested among the members in mission work has been very encouraging. liach girl contributed a weekly sum which goes to the fund which supports Miss Sheppard, the Pennsylvania Normal School Missionary, in South America. Each year the association sends representatives to the National Confer- ence at Eaglesmere to receive training and instruction for eflicient work in the association. The conference in return sends tis occasionally some of the otiicers to help us plan our work. 'llhis year Miss Richardson and a friend visited us, and their visits were a great source of help and inspiration. This year we have celebrated the jubilee This is in honor of the hftieth anniversary of the organization, and a special program of work for a month was arranged. In conjunction with this, memorial services were held in metnory of Miss Grace Dodge, the former president of the organization and once its chief support. One of the most pleasing features of the school year is the reception given to new students, where they may become acquainted and form friend- ships. We also give other social functions. 'lfhis year we had a. Doll So- cial. Our play entitled Mennemen Inn. was both a financial and a social success. Wfe have not yet succeeded in getting rooms for the association but we expect this aim to be realized in a few years. 4 CARRIE A. HERRING 116 ' MHNHSPEAREAN Y. XV. C. A. C.-XIKINICT 117 1 tvtttatsiee all-teattt 1 The Minisink Literary Society H12 Minisink Literary Society was founded in 1893 when the school was established, and since that time its history has been one of growth and progress. lgiuit never before lras it received the interest and enthusiasm of its members as it has this year. Co-operation and good-will have seemed to be the watch-words of its members. The increase in the number of its members is shown in the fact that this year they have been divided into seven, instead of live, working sections, each section consisting of lifteen or more members, representing the most varied talent. Its growth in numbers has not been more remarkable than its growth in the quality of the work done. The programs rendered this year have been exceptionally line. One of the interesting features has been the occasional special selections which have displayed the inventive genius and talent of its members. , , 'lihc society celebrated its twenty-second anniversary on the evening of the twenty-seventh of November in order that the alumni who came back to spend Thanksgiving, might -attend. ln keeping with the spirit of the times a sullfragist farce, The Revolt, was given by several of the girls of the society, while the boys proved to all present, by means of a base-ball play, that Music Hath Charms. Both of these plays were staged by Miss M. K. Hill, and the artistic scenery was the result of the work and skill of Miss M. O. l-lewlett. 'Besides the play, the program consisted of select readings, and vocal and in- strumental selections. Miss Mae l-laas took charge of the musical pant of the program. i . The society is in the best possible linancial. condition. 'Despite the pur- chase of new secretary books and a gavel, there is a sum of money at interest sufficient to warrant the realization of the hope that some day the society may 'furnish its own rooms. The presidents during the year have been Norman Xhfeisentluh, john Montanye. Wfarren G. llunn, Robert E. Wfilliams, listher A. Austin, Frank lf. Hatton, Fred li. XiVall, and John Monasky.

HE Shakespearean Literary Society was founded in 1893, with the purpose of developing literary talent, ability to debate and to speak in public. In recent years, as classes increase, the membership of this society has shown a corresponding increase' in numbers until at the present time we have a membership of one hundred sixty-one. The Shakespearean Literary Society meets every Saturday evening in the chapel auditorium where spirited and entertaining programs are rendered. The society in 1913, purchased a large banner bearing the inscription of the Society in gold letters upon a blue back-ground, which occupies a promi- nent place in the Normal Chapel. The design of this banner was planned by a member of the class of 1915. This year has been one of Spartan activity among our members, and one in which they take much pride,,bot1h in increase of membership and in cementing of closer bonds of friendship. The programs have been varied. Special programs were rendered on Thanksgiving and St. P'atrick's Day. Some of the chief events of the year were the productions of the following: The Reader, A Twig of Thorn, Rascal Pat, Miss Parkington and Brother Dave, all staged by Miss Hill. The officers consist of a president, vice-president, recording and financial secretary, treasurer and two sergeants-at-arms, who are elected every four weeks according to the constitution. The president must be a member of the senior class except in the last election of the year, when a junior is elected. Graduate members retain their active membership and add to our programs whenever they visit the meetings. It is with a deep feeling of appreciation that the present active members of the Shakespearean Literary Society consider the efforts made by several thoughtful students who are responsible for the successful condition in which we found our society. The sessions of 1915 will remain notable ones in the history of the society and we trust that our successors will keep true to the motto in every respect, We increase in our course. MAY O'HARE. 120 MHNHSPEZZAXESSEAN S H A K ICSPICA R ICAN LITE RA RY SOCITCT Y 121 ltarstiseeaaean I The Excelsior Literary Society OME people may ask why it was necessary for another Literary Society to be established in our school. Such persons do not take into con- sideration the many inconveniences which the day students and some boarding students would have to endure if they were compelled to attend the society meetings that are held on Saturday evenings. Some day sudents live several miles out of town: others go to and from school on the train: and still others, some boarding students, spend the week- ends at their homes out of town. Thus, in order that these students may en- joy the privileges of a literary society, the Excelsior Society was formed. This society meets on Tuesday afternoons, after school hours, and therefore all day students are able to attend. The society is still in its infancy, having been established but a 'few months ago: but if it continues to prosper as it has in these few months, it will certain- ly -be a great benefit to the day student section of the student body. And if its members hereafter will take as much interest in this society as the class of nineteen sixteen, there will certainly be no cause for its failure. The membershlip of the Excelsior Society has increased to sixty-a very encouraging membership. At least ten of these are boarding students, who spend the week-ends at their homes out of town. It is expected that by next year the membership will increase to seventy-tive or more. The programs are somewhat shorter than those of the Minisink and Shakespearean Society, but are arranged on practically the same lines. They consist chietiy of recitations, readings, solos, both vocal and instrtuncntal, songs by various quartettes, speeches, and later debates will be introduced. :X very fine quartette, known as the Seniormore Bass Quartette, has rendered some very beautiful selections, which are highly appreciated by all. The quartette consists of Emery Gordon, il6Q -D. llarold Learn, 'l6: Russell Mich- aels, H83 and Lester VValters, '18 ln closing we wish to extend our sincere thanks for the assistance render- ed us by the ofticers of the Minisink and Shakespearean Soeietiesg also to the members of the faculty, especially Professor VV?tllllClllZlliCl', who assisted us in organizing the Excelsior Literary Society.

Although only a few old men reported for the team and the pitching staff was greatly weakened., the team played brilliant base-ball. The season began with a victory over Lafayette Freshmen 6 to 5. Iln this game the future stars were brought out and gave Coach lVlaguire a chance to see what his material could do under tire. VVe met our tirst defeat at the hands of Bloomsburg Normal due to the fact that 'our pitchers 'had not struck their gait. This was followed by a defeat at the hands of Keyser Valley, a team composed mostly of pro- fessionals. ' It could easily be seen that the team was greatly improved and that our boys were capable of playing excellent ball. This was followed by victories Over Vlfharton School, Phoebe Snows, Blair Hall, and Delaware Vlfater Gap. The game with Blair renewed our athletic relations with that institution which had been broken olf for a number of years. lt is one that will go down in the history of the school. Against overwhelming odds we won by the score of 3 to 2. Our early hopes were realized, our cherished desires gratified-Our team proved worthy. pp. Normal April 24-Lafayette Freshmen, here 5 6 May -Bloomsburg Normal, away I1 I May -Keyser Valley, here ..... 6 5 May -NVharton School, away ..

Althougli we have lost Evans and Collier, stars of last year's team, there is still some good material and we feel confi- dent that it will not talce long for Coach Maguire to have a strong teaIn capable of defeating all their opponents. Much credit is dne Manager Curtiss and Coach M agnire for arranging the hest schedule we have had in a numher of years. The greater part of this remains to he played, yet the capability displayed so far evidences be- yond dispute that our sanguine hopes Zlllfl greatest amhitions will he realized. Although it is early in the season and Coach Nlaguire may make l1'l2ll1y changes hefore tlIc last game is played, the team to date is as follows: Catcher, Artlnn' Cnrtiss, 'I6 Pitcher, Martin Minniclc, 'IS 'llhird lgiase, Michael McGraw, ,IS Short Stop, Martin Haggerty, '16 First Base, X'Villiam XfValters, 'IS Left Field, Harold Mcbroarty, 'I7 Second Base, joseph Curran, 'I7 Center Field, 'l homas Mcllonald, 'IQ Qlames Maguire, 'I6 Right lfield, Raymond l'lCZll'I1, 'I7 blanies Daley, '16 Leonard Connelly, '17 ,Xnthony McCormick, YI7 l,awrence Schoclc, 'I7 Schedule 1916 April I5 .

'llhe season of IQIS started off better than any previous one. lirom the beginning of the school year till the last day of the foot-ball season 'there was a daily attendtance of twenty-five men reporting to Coach Maguire. This is a marked increase over past years and shows a new and lively interest in the sport. 'llhe first game of the season was played with lilangor, resulting with an overwthelming score of 77-O in our favor. 'llhe following Saturday Pen Argyl was the Varsity's opponent, and after a hard-fought and scrappy game ended in a tie, 7-7. On October 16 the team journeyed to Bangor where they again emerged victorious, 14-7. XVilkes-Barre lrligh was our next opponent at XVilkes-llarre. 'llhe team had a hard time making the score 7-0, but several times were in the shadow of the goal and lacked the punch to send the hall over. On October 30 liloomsburg Normal was our guest on the Normal field. Again we were successful, making the score I2-3 in the first half. Near the end of the half the Dloomsburg team left the field conquered. Wfe met our first and only defeat at vthe hands of Bethlehem Prep. the following Satur- day. 'lfloo much honor cannot be showered upon the team, for it was one of the hardest games ever played on our field. On November I3 we were again the victors, defeating St. 'lohn's lfx-High in a hard fought game 6-O. 'llhis was followed by an easy victory over the Arrow 'llraining School 67-O. 'llhe season ended on 'llhanksgiving Day when we defeated St. Johns Ex-High 42-6. 'llhe varsity, showing a wonderful knowledge of trick plays and forward passes, completely outclassed St. .lohn's. Although the familiar faces of'such veterans as lflaggerty, Rue, Mon- tanye, Kelly, Daley, Dougher, Curtiss, Maguire, and liarrett will not be seen on the gridiron next year, we think with the men remaining and several new men. Coach lvlaguire will be able to build up as good a team as in the last two years, and we wish him success in every game. 127 i 'MHNHSPEAREAN 1 Vztrsity Foot-ball Team 1915 llJl!1ltIfjt'I' ........................................

Starting the season with three members of last year's team, although facing the hardest schedule ever arranged for the varsity, the prospects looked fairly good for a winning team. At the start it was seen, that through the drilling of Coach Maguire we would soon have a perfect working machine. 'llhe opening game with West Pitts- ton, minus the services of Capt. Kelly and Barrett, showed that team work was fast developing. Following the victories over XfVest Pittston, Alumni, and the Monks, the team was defeated by Pittston High at Pittston. 'llhen followed victories over Pittston High, Newport, East Stroudsburg High, and a tie with Co. G. On jan. 22, at the hands of Hanover High, we met our second defeat which was followed by victories over Blair T-lall, Co. G, and Bethlehem Prep. On Feb. I2 we met Millersville Normal at Millersville and were again defeated but only after a hard game. Nanticoke 1-Iigh, VVest Pittston, l--lanover, and Blair Hall were the next 'teams to bow before our winners. Everyone looked forward to the game at VVest Chester and the team had resolved to win if possible and if not, at least to show them that we would tight till the last whistle blew. The game was one of the greatest ever play-ed on that floor and was only lost after playing Eve extra minutes. Following this game, Co. G was defeated twice, thus winning the series. '.l.'he last game of the season played at Kirmar Park is one that will long be remembered, although we lost after playing ten extra minutes. 1 Though the team loses through graduation six men, Kelly, Haggerty, Reynolds, Barrett, Kemp, and Gordon, Normal should again have a winning team, The work of Coach Maguire during the past shows that he is capable and has the confidence of the men, which means success. NVe feel justly proud of our basket-ball team, having won 30 out of 38 games in the last two seasons. 130 1 MHNHSPEAREAN 1 VA1zs1'1'v ILxs141Q'11-11.x1,1, 'l'1f:A111 Cfljvluili ... ... . -l11s1f:1'11 li1i1,1,Y 111 Jywflllllfjfl' ......... ....... l 111xN14 l!m'1.1't 1, f'l.v.vi.vlu11l !1l111111y1'1' . . . . .W1N1-'11-31,11 Kl111N.x1:11 18 Cnm'!1 .......... .. lf'1u11f. l 1z1xN14 P.
