H. S. Orchestra 43 Senior Class History Margaret Thomason IT was only three years ago when we first entered the high school as the class of nineteen thirty. The majority of us felt strange coming to this new building from the different Junior High Schools. It did not take us long, however, to adapt oursleves to these different surroundings. Before our Sophomore year was half over, we discovered that we had made many new friends. We chose for our class president that year a boy, John Cericola, who has since been graduated from high school a year ahead of his class. In our Junior year the responsibilities of the presidency, which have always been given to a boy, were intrusted to me—a mere girl. On this account we hesitate to say very much about the success of this year. This past year our executive has been a capable boy. With him as our leader we supported athletics as we have done from the beginning. Those on the side lines had as much enthusiasm for pushing the ball over the line as the football boys themselves. And we nearly lost our voices cheering for the basketball teams. We arc the first class to have an organized boys’ swimming team. Its intro- duction, as a part of the sports’ curriculum, has been very successful. Another new feature was added when we initiated the tennis courts with a fall tournament. The Senior Class is not only interested in athletics but also in dramatics. With a double all-star cast we presented a new type of Senior play -a character play - “Daisy Mayme.” We turned oriental in our operetta this year when we gave “The China Shop.” Our dances have been picturesquely staged in an undecoratcd gymnasium. Those among us who could not dance before learned this year in a special dancing class sponsered by the Senior Cabinet. The Junto has been clever and interesting, publishing our queer adolescent views and the results of our strenuous athletic contests with sincerity and pride. Even our poems have appeared in it. Certain events we shall remember with pleasant association: the Junior-Senior Reception, Class Day, and the Senior Dinner-Dance, that colorful occasion dedicat- ed to good food, good speeches by nervous people, and all kinds of dancing. Every graduating class feels sad when it is about to leave. But we can be con- soled by a famous saying of Virgil: “Hale dim nemissesse inebit” which means “It will be pleasant to remember these things hereafter.” 44 Last Will and Testament, Class of 1930 Easton High School Eleanore Lechner WE, the class of ’30, who have so greatly honored E. H. S. with our presence, and who have been quite indispensable, to our way of thinking, do or- dain and establish this our Last Will and Testament. We bequeath our most valued treasures as follows: To the teachers who passed us at the “psychological moment”—all the blessings they duly deserve. To the teachers who are particularly fond of giving out eight period slips—six days of rainy weather on their four day vacation trips. To the Class of 1931 all that Easton High School stands for and all it has prov- ed to be. To Jim and Frank Bechtel—the popularity of their big brother, Johnny. To the boys’ 1931 predicted basketball team a bachelor’s apartment. To nobody in particular Bob Kirchhofer’s noise. To the Salvation Army, (in order to raise their funds) Paul Wesbeckcr. To the “It” girl, (to give Clara Bow a treat)—Gladys Fox. To John Gilbert, (to give him some new pointers)- Rolland Pierson. To David Ricbman, Harmond Farr, Donald Campbell—all the power over the girls, held by Dan Anthony, McRae Lilly, and Johnny Hensler. To the idealist- Kathryn Stansbury. To A1 Jolson- Floyd Jones (the real and only Sonny Boy). To the angels in heaven—Rufie and all that comes with him. To beauty, (in all its phases)—Annetta Meek. To “The Licensed Liar’s Club,” (I cannot tell a lie)—Vince Owens. To anybody—Palmer Jago’s laugh. To Mr. Pole and his Literary Club—Marie Louise Reeder’s ability to write. To the Siamese Twins -Lester Smith and Jack Klcinhans. To every girl who wants a great big brother—Lester Williams. To certain lovers of E. H. S. -A P. G. course. To the Society for Prevention of Cruelty of the Voice—F'lora Matthews. To Mr. Brotzman, (because there’s no one like her)— Elizabeth Xolf. To dear old Broadway, (for 1940 stage hits)- Irma Liddle, Marjorie Love, and Martha Sticht. To the State Hospital at Rittersville to be used as articles of pleasure and in- struction to poor insane poets all the old worn-out school books that have caused so much misery. To Helen Wills—Honey Thomason’s tennis ability. To the “life of all parties”—Mary Catherine Snovel. To the Simmons Mattress Company -William Shaw’s love for sleep. 45 200,000 Unpaid Circulation POPPIN’ I PROPHETIC Whether to or Whether not to EASTON NEWS REEL FALSE Revelations, Chap.

Famous Divorce Case in Full Swing Mr. Owens is suing his wife, the former Kathryn Stansbury. for a divorce with alimony. The Owens have been happily married for twenty years. Mrs. is a phy- sical instructor, while Mr. does the housework. They raised live husky children and taught them iMisketball from the age of five up. Mr. Owens’ grounds for the divorce is that Mrs. won’t allow him to Ik head manager of the team. The case opened up yesterday. The dignified nurse. Miss Marie Boylan, was present with the children. Officers Tom Drum- mond and John Bechtel are court guards. Jane Arnold, court sten- ographer. and Sylvia Kelsey, court reporter. At eight o'clock Mrs. Owens arrived attended by her maid, Emily Lewis. She was attired in one of the latest crea- tions of Miss Irma Liddic. who specializes in designing costumes for weddings and funerals. Mrs. Owens' lawyer appeared about the same time; lawyer I eonard Cohen is as good a shyster as ever chased an ambulance. Mr. Owens then entered accompanied by his law- yer, James Imcl, who always wears spats and carries a cane. The court was brought to order by the presiding judge, the Hon- orable Donald Riffert. Detec- tives James Fleming and Louis Young, were called as witnesses. They said that the plaintiff had Iwen seen in the Public Library reading Horatio Alger. Misses Jean Mellon and Helen Morris, librarians, confirmed this. Doc- tor Hensler was then called to vouch for Mr. Owens' sanity. Mr. Owens' lawyer then pro- duced Arthur Cyphers, a wood- worker in Arlan Hackman's lum- Iwr yard, who testified that he had seen the defendant out riding with George Hellick, owner of the Hotel Eustou Coffee Shop.

FRANK BRINK. Jr. Editor LITERARY INQUEST “SEPTEMBER MORN School is not as good for you as it’s cracked up to l e: in fact.it is down-right dangerous. Now don't give yourself credit for being brave just because you attend a school; a brave man is one who goes against danger when he knows danger exists, while you. poor boobs, are entirely ignorant, of the sanguinary fate that may be in store for you. Like the bootleg- ger, I believe in doing things for the people's benefit, so I'll give you the low down on these lurking horrors; then you'll know how to avoid them. 'Fhe danger commences the first day. If you are late you’ll have five of your points cut off. This is weakening as well as degrading. The loss of blood is in itself a big faetor, but taking five judiciously chosen angles off of any one will materially change their appear- ance. and not always for the bet- ter. Some people of course take advantage of the privilege of be- ing homely, and for these few, any change is bound to be an improve- ment. However, 1 refer to the majority when I say. that in order to avoid the painful operation— either get up earlier, or else drink more egg-nogg so that you’ll be all curves and no angles. It is plain that if you have no angles, you have no (mints and they can’t take something you don’t have. To make myself dear, I’ll repeat, if you don’t want (mints taken «iff don’t make any points. Ix t us assume that you’ve been unusually successful and have got- ten to class on time. You have then evaded the first danger, but don’t get careless, for there are more to come. In Algebra class you may strain your back lifting a radical sign or removing a par- enthesis; in English you may be run down while delivering a speech; and in Geometry a line may talk back when you “lay it out, or a circle will get peeved when you describe it . All of this gives you some idea of the imbroglia you an up against daily. When you disobey the rules you are either kicked out entirely « r dropped for a week. Being kicked out is quite a pain- ful experience and it may bruise your “confidence”, but being droppc l also has disastrous re- sults. depending of course on the the elevation, a fifty point drop is considered a record and is held by “Joe Bovine . All students, especially the half baked ones, know that the main purpose of the teachers is to set traps for pupils. You are all fam- iliar with their little joke of teach- ing one thing and asking some- thing entirely different in the exams. I can just imagine how they laugh as they correct one paper after another with the same mistake. If 90% of the papers arc incorrect then the trick is con- sidered a success, so you sec that correcting exam papers is inten- sely interesting to a teacher till she is sure of a full 90% below passing. Don’t blame the teach- er for this, because it is one of the basic principles of education. The theory is that if a student isn’t taught that which his teacher in- ternis to ask him in the next quiz, he will have l � get it by mental telepathy. This leads to a closer contact between pupil and teach- er, and such a comlition is highly desirable in all educational in- stitutions. especially correspond- ence schools. While this practice is necessary, it is deplorable that it should have such a drastic effect on the stu- dent. for the one big danger that is generally recognized is that of getting a 100% grade for the year. If you don’t believe me look up the records in any high school. Of course, there are always a few undesireables, who don’t give a hang for the traditions of their school, and these go right ahca l flaunting perfection in their teach- er's faces. Please understand me; it’s O.K. to get the work, but don’t let your teacher find it out. Every time you break this law the teacher gives a highly educated chuckle and marks an E on your report card. This stands for “Excluded”; but don’t forget he who laughs last laughs best providing he has something to laugh at. Incidentally Colgate's will improve any one’s smile. These are a few of the “hidden threats’ of school life and I think you’ll agree that school, taken ns a game of chess, is one big riot. AI’THOR WINTERING IN FLORIDA The well known author. Dan Anthony, is spending the winter in Florida with his wife, the form- er Margaret Thomason. Mr. Anthony’s latest book is. “Love in Old Easton or “Altered at the Altar . The plot is as follows: Frances Garr. the lovely cigarette girl at the Hotel Easton, falls in love with “Bill Bryan, the indoor aviator, i.e. the elevator boy.

(Anyone who has been on Front Street will recall his place of bus- iness.) It is the old ice house, and on the front is a big sign— John Gore’s Horses, By the Hour. His evidence was corroborated by the former Dorothy lamella Wallin, who really runs the business. Robert Bell, third assistant jockey of the Academy, also gave valu- able information. The jury, composed of Phrosene Roosesdl. Jack Kilkcliy. Molly Kirchgassner. Donald Young, Paul Hagenbuch. Marshall Case. Arthur Weeks, Harold Kresslv, Ralph Scblough. Edna Kranich, Fannie Krieger. and Karl Wilson, brought in a verdict of “both guil- ty of disturbing the peace. Judge Irvin Adams of the Su- preme Court, who recognizes that financial circumstances alter cases, nullified this decision by saying that the principals hadn't been tried by a jury of their peers.

MARVELOUS NEW STORE OPENED (Continued from page 46) while Anne Morgenstern sells false teeth and toothpaste. They are all graduates of C. of P. so naturally you need have no fear of being hurt. Arlene Shepard, the druggist, sells smelling salts to people who have liecn thrown out on either side of her. The rest of this floor is taken up by a gymnasium. Holland Pier- son runs the dump, while Miss Fox- keeps the books and runs him. Harold Earl Rufe gives instruc- tions in weight lifting.

On the top floor is Bernice Brill and Sylvia Brittain, who teach dramatics. They specialize in recitations of the Charge of the Light Brigade. Bob” Secbrist, the musician, usually assists them by playing The Parade of the Wooden Soldiers. Marie Louise Reeder teaches French in the next stall and in- structs people in how to handle the knife and fork in a school cafeteria. The Easton Broadcasting Sta- tion occupies the remainder of the building. Harold Sehoonmakcr is is charge while Tom Wilson does the work. Joe Smith is the announcer who fills in vacant moments with vacant ideas. Ib- is sure of a good job as long as Sehoonmakcr doesn't perfect tele- vision. The roof is occupied by the Aernautical School. Mr. Weiss, now a venerable old man. often sits here sunning himself and giv- ing advice to pilots Gilbert Hul- sizer, Herman Sutton, and Carl Fretz. Irvin Burlier, Ken Gares, and Louis Kummcrcrdo the heavy lifting under the instruction of engineers. Donald Reichard and John Horn. Horn could be a successful pilot, but he prefers to be down and out. This completes the services of- fered by this remarkable store. However, the staff, with quarters in the basement, demand some attention. Stanley Waltman runs the business. He has two pri- vati secretaries. Mary Lee and Marjorie Schaffer, and one extra private. Dorothy Gray. Harry Shade and Alfred Wertley. the pride of Churchman's Business College, are heads of the account- ing department. Cora Belgrade is next in rank while the bookkeep- ers. Alma Gcliman.

He said lie couldn't keep his mind on his work with all those women around. Berry Levine is the store physician with nurses, Marian Piekel and Ruth Corrcll as as- sistants. Contrary to popular belief he is a doctor who likes to see people «it apples. He says there is always a chance that they’ll get the seeds in their ap- pendix. Watson Woodrow made his first million in aviation. He is an undertaker. NAUTICAL ENGINEERS JOIN REDS Ever since Admiral Cpdegrove talked himself out of a job by af- fecting a disarmament treaty with England, the Navy has been on the decrease. Nautical Engin- eers, Arthur Flowers, Warford Heller, and McRae Lilly, and seamen Vincent Ewadinger. Har- vey George, and Robert Rover, as well as first mate Wesbecker. have consequently lost their jobs. John Motley, professional ballv- hooer for the I.W.W. talked them into joining the Reds ranks. Be- ing sailors, they were right at home. 48 Feb. 31, 1940-10 Easton News Reel False OFFICE STRIKE Ruth Fisher ami Kleanore Lech- ner, two commercial teachers at Easton High School, have organ- ized a strike among the office work- ers of Hrotzman Co., Automatic Calculators. Mr. Brotzmun, a former teacher at E.H.S. .openeda Public Service Mathematical Agency altout a year ago. His efficiency soon l� ecame known and business in- creased. He specialized in lift- ing middle sized radicals and rais- ing uncommon denominators. Finally he was forced to hire the following secretaries and steno- graphers: Louise Rapp. Ruth Huff, Claudiana Ricci, Ruth Kroening, Marie Kafka. Winifred Main, Miriam Bocrstler, Beatrice Piekel, Edna Wolback. and Esther Silagi. Everything progressed until Mr. Brotzman, remembering the ef- ficiency of former students, pro- hibited the powdering of noses and chewing of gum during office hours. There is not a stenog in the country that will stand for this; just ask Mr. Forney. Thus the strike started. All the other mechanical cal- culators in town were either rusty from non-use or were in hock, so the services of the Agency were in demand. A congressional investi- gation was ordered. Mr. Brotzman him! the cor- loration lawyer. Robert I’ngcr- ieder, to defend him. Two big politicians, Lester Williams and “Doug Ix sher. were sent up from Washington to investigate because they were already familiar with the defendant's methods. The case dragged on; the sten- ographers, missing their daily soda, were reduced to shadows; Ungerliedcr was getting rich; and Mr. Brotzman was getting poor. Finally Mr. Brotzman traded places with Bernice Jarek. a math, teacher. Thus the trouble was ended for Bernice didn't object to chewing gum during business hours, in fact she preferred choc- olate or cream pie. The two politicians hud longer vacations than usual as did their secretaries. Eva Fratell and Helen McIntyre. Jack Metzgar, well known phy- sicist. has discovered something smaller than the electron. Being a good friend and former classmate of Frank Brink, he has promised not to mention any names. RADIO PROGRAM Station Ll’R broadcasting every night on 50 meters.

On me the foundations Of the show were laid. As one man to another. I want to tell you. That never in my life Have I missed a cue. I've been “the cry withing,” The tumult without, The voice from above, And the “distant shout.” I’ve crowed like a cock. Made a noise like a train. Cause the moon to rise, And the heavens to rain. I’ve been a “face at the window,” And the corpse on the floor. The wind whistling past, And the knock at the door.” I've caused doors to slam. The walk to shake. The Curtains to quiver. And the windows to break. But now I’ve retired. Am forgotten by all; And I'm patiently wailing. For the curtain to fall. From the stage I've retired. Only to act in life. For I’m playing the echo To my hard-hearted wife. 49 Feb. 31, 1940-10 Easton News Reel False WHO’S WHO AND WHY Did you ever visit an insane asylum at meal time? If you have, here is what you probably saw? The less harmful nuts file slowly into the room in lockstep stvle, and in a short time they are all seated. Sometimes, of course, one of the least res| onsible mem- bers forgets where he is supposed to sit. or a thought will strike the barren surface of his brain, (if he has one,) ami he’ll try some silly trick on his neigldtor. but for the most part these inmates, who are there because they can’t or won’t change their minds, are well under the control of the thick laalied and. in some cases, thick skulled guards who patrol the aisles. Sometimes these idiots will drop their tin plates, or hide their neighbors’ spoons, or one. a bit more balmy than the others, will go into a paroxysm of luughtcr over nothing. You will usually hear eat calls, groans, hisses, and an occassional silly gigglc.altho' the latter sound is almost entirely confined to the woman section. It seems that the minds of these people are in such a chaotic state that normal sane action of any kind is quite beyond their cap- acity. Keeping this picture in mind I want you to consider some of our study halls. Every one crowds to get in; some forget where they are to sit; one pushes his neigh- bor’s book out of his arm or cun- ningly hides it someplace; or an- other gleefully kicks a chair from in under a person about to sit down. You can usually hear all sorts of funny noises made to nn- noy the guards, who, like in the other story, purade up and down the aisles keeping watch for an untimely or indiscrete break on the part of the (?) students. From observation I believe the guards ar� more necessary in the latter case, for the half baked stu- dents who play idiotic tricks are just imitating the real idiots and their attempts, tho’ they some- times approach the real thing, are usually very i oor, as is the case whenever you try to steal some- body else’s racket. These mad people were, in many cases, put away by a de- cision from a jury of their jieers. After observing the imbeeilie notions of the future “peers” of this country. 1 sometimes wonder where the distinction is between a supposedly sane person, who in- dulges in idiotic performances, and those poor souls who pass away their lives picking apples off a clothes tree. The only difference, I guess, is that we arc only amateur imbe- ciles while they are the masters of the art. SCI ENTIFIC 1 IS(!()V ER Y The great mathematician.

Football THE football season of the fall of 1929 was not a success in the usual sense of the word. We had a schedule with ten hard games, and although we rolled up quite a total in points and established a record in blocking punts, the fact re- mains that four of our opponents were too strong for us. Eighty-seven boys responded to Manager Todaro’s call for candidates on the opening day of school. There were six letter men present including Captain Ealer, and with these as a nucleus Coach “Pat” Reilly had just two and a half weeks to mold a team for the opening game with Wilson High. The season started off with three successive victories, first Wilson, then Chester, then Scranton. The strong John Harris team administered our first defeat, but all who were present saw a real game. The next week we lost to Norristown by one point, and then, with the odds against them, the team came back and walloped Bethlehem before a crowd of 10,000 at the Lafayette stadium. The next Saturday brought an overwhelming victory over Hazelton, followed by our third setback of the season when Allentown won a hard fought game because of their ability to kick drops from any place on the field. Reading next fell victim to “Pat” Reilly’s boys. Thus ended the first nine games of the season with a record of six victories, three defeats, and a team that fought hard and held their own time and again when kneel- ing on their own goal line. The hardest blow of the season came on Thanksgiving day when we failed to make it “eighteen.” Considering how unaccustomed we arc to such a result we bore the defeat very well. P’burg beat us and so brought our total of games lost to four and broke two tra- ditions of our school. However, the greatest tradition, that of hard, clean playing and good sportsmanship, has been doubly strengthened. Our team has proven that “Pat” Reilly cannot only produce teams that know how to play and win, but he also can produce teams that know how to play when they are losing. Easton High offers no alibis for their defeats. The teams always played the best they could, and we are confident that each of the four teams that defeated us knew that they were playing a real football game. The true spirit of a group of men can best be determined by their reaction to adversity. If we take this as our major premise, we can arrive at but one conclu- sion concerning this year’s team. This feeling of ours is best expressed in the old war cry “Give a long cheer for the Team, the Scrubs, and the Coach.” They have taken the bumps and have come up smiling, so here’s to next year’s success. The following arc the scores of the games played this year: Sept. 21 0—Wilson 25—Easton Sept. 28 6—Chester 33—Easton Oct. 5 0—Scranton Central 26—Easton Oct. 12 3—John Harris 7—Easton Oct. 19 7—Norristown 6—Easton Oct. 26 0—Bethlehem 13—Easton Nov. 2 13—Hazelton 49—Easton Nov. 9 10—Allentown 6—Easton Nov. 16 7—Reading 18—Easton Nov. 28 13—Phillipsburg 0—Easton 7i Boys’ Basketball Top Row, Lcfi to Right: Manager Earle Rufc, George Robinson, Ray Williams, Floyd Jones, Coach Notcstinc.

BASKETBALL practice started early, but it was not until after the football men were enabled to participate that the varsity team was chosen. Coach Note- stine worked hard with the candidates to get them in shape for the opening game with Wilson, and Manager Rufe was always on hand to round up the men before the games. The season was an average one, with, however, some very exciting contests. The scores were not always in our favor, but the boys furnished the spectators with some high-class basketball, and certainly earned their letters by good hard work.

EASTON High School not only possesses a varsity that cannot be beat, but it is proud to own a second team that could not be defeated by either the regulars of Bethlehem or Wilson. Everybody was after our scalp, and it was only through continued practice and the hard work of both Coach Cummings and Captain Stans- bury that made our team come out at the top again. Every single girl on the E. H. S. Squad is loyal and true to her school. If she were not, we would have a different story to tell after five varsity members and two subs were declared ineligible for the remaining two weeks of the season with still Bethlehem and Wilson only too willing to break our record. Not only is the school proud of its fine girls but the enthusiasts of Easton all comment upon the remarkable sportsmanship. The team loses eight players this year, mainly the whole varsity and two substitutes. They are Captain Stansbury, Helen McIntyre, Harriet Ritter, Gladys M. Fox, Ethel Ehas, Ruth Fisher, Jose- phine Hixson, and Miriam Boerstler. We, the students of Easton High School, want to thank Miss Cummings, the coach, for her loyal support and constant encouragement. We certainly appreciate her work and we wish that Miss Cummings team next year will also be undefeated. There should be no doubt for they have already proved themselves to E. H. S. in two games, and we arc sure they will come through. 73 Swimming Team Top Row, Left to Right: Earl Kcyscr, Ass't Coach Ted Whitesell, Daniel Moyer, Charles Albus, James Moy, Manager James Imcl, Coach Mr. Kueblcr.

THIS year a swimming team was added to the list of athcletic institutions in the Easton High School. The team practiced in the Y.M.C.A. pool three times a week. Although the swimmers competed against such veteran teams as Bethlehem, Allentown, and Norristown, they came out on top, winning three of their five meets. Captain John Hensler and Dan Anthony both won places in the National Inter- scholastic Championships held at the University of Pennsylvania. This is the first time any Easton Athletes ever placed in a National Championship event. In a post season championship meet of all Pennsylvania High Schools five Easton boys, John Hensler, Dan Anthony, George Hellick, Walter Fox, and Earl Smith, won first place and came home with the team trophy and eleven medals. Since invitations were issued to all the leading High Schools in Pennsylvania, the Easton boys claim the state championship of Pennsylvania. Much credit for the success of the team goes to Coach Kuebler, who worked diligently with the boys throughout the season, and to Manager James Imel for the ability he displayed in arranging meets. After such a successful opening season we hope that swimming will hold a worthy position in the sports of Easton High School. 74 Baseball Top Row, Left to Right: Manager Russo, Lilly, Morrison, Coach Richards.

Coach Richards, ably assisted by Manager Jacob Russo, arranged for the opening game with Scranton Central on Saturday, April 12. The 1930 team was practically a veteran combination. Captain Pierson play- ed center field with his usual ability as an athlete. Williams and Riffert, pitch- ers, and Robinson and Bechtel, catchers, formed the batteries around which the team was constructed. Although the season was not completed when this book went to press, we are confident that the final results will be entirely favorable.

The boys did their laps-around every night, and occasionally there were time trials. The field men conscientiously put the shot, hurdled the bar, threw the jovelin, or pole vaulted, and by the begin- ning of the regular season the whole team was in tip-top condition. This team has been aggressive in more than one way. Not only did they show up favourably in all meets, but they also performed in foreign territory on every occasion. They had to practice under adverse conditions because of construction work that was being carried on in part of the stadium, but Manager Horn took care of them as best he could, and the team came through with good results.

The manager was unsuccessful in arranging meets, and the team ran in but one race, that held by the Y.M.C.A. Such was the modest beginning of a sport that has become very popular among our track men. The entire 1930 team, under the tutelage of Coach Notestine, showed up well in the meets that Manager Tomainc arranged. Reid Transue, this year’s out- standing man, took first place in every meet in which he ran. He was awarded the gold cup at Scranton Tech., and he also annexed the Lehigh Valley Championship Cup. Morris, Arnold, and Holland each won a cup in various meets. One glance at the following results will show you why the cross country team deserves all the support that we can give them.

Tennis team for 1930 was formed in April under the direction of Mr. Kuebler. The candidates entirely reconditioned, rolled, and marked the courts without any outside help. The courts were originally built in September, 1929, with funds appropriated by the E.H.S.A. The team is composed of ten members, a first and second squad. The players on the first squad are Captain Mitchell Grollman, Albert Sandt, Wilbur Fuehrer, Edward Henderson, and Joe Brau. The second stringers arc Brooks Betts, Joseph Keiper, Martin Cohen, Alex Corrierc, and Fred Anderson. The Manager, Anthony Di Martino, has arranged an attractive schedule of four- teen matches with neighboring schools and colleges.

Fox Secretary—Eleanor Lechnor Vice Pres.—Helen Bahr Treasurer—Dorothy Walz Faculty Advisor—Miss Agnes Cummings T'HE Leaders Club stands for good sportsmanship, dependability, love for ath- letics, and real leadership. Miss Chalmers started the club three years ago, and Miss Cummings has done everything possible to make the club succeed in all its undertakings. The production, “The Wedding of the Painted Dolls”, which was given by the club was an overwhelming success, and much credit is due Miss Cummings, who certainly worked hard to put it over so well. The membership of the Leaders’ Club is limited to fifty girls, and the girls get in the club by popular vote. 81 E.

ACH year Mr. Fackenthal’s debating club seems to be gaining more popularity. Perhaps the interest is due to the fact that he produces such excellent material and winning teams. In the 1929 Season the team won the Ursinus Debating League Trophy, and the 1930 delegates worked diligently in quest of new laurels. This year’s question for debate was: Resolved, that the present system of in- stallment buying has proved harmful. The members of the affirmative team were: Adaline Plank, Albert Sandt, David Schwimmer, and Julius Bricker, alternate. Those on the negative side were: Jack Klcinhans, captain, Peggy King, Steve Koji, and Carl Veit, alternate. Virginia Hall, a member of the 1929 team, who took a P.G. course this year assisted Mr. Fackcnthal in coaching the members. Manager Jack Sassaman was a great help in all the team’s undertakings. 83 Girl Reserves President—Elsie Beck Secretary—Geraldine Albus Vice Pres.—Lucy Stamets Treasurer—Marian Pickel Faculty Advisors—Miss Verna M.

The Setting-Lp Conference at Waurenga Lodge in September gave them a good start in their work. The enrollment of 65 members and the greater and more varied activities are making the club interesting and helpful. The club joins in thanking Miss Reed, Miss Poore, and Miss Willauer for their help in making this year a success. 84 Hi-Y Club 4 President—Dan Anthony Secretary—John Gore FicePres.—Lester Smith Treasurer—Vincent Owens Advisor—Mr. Elton E. Stone FOR the past three years the Hi-Y' Club has been taking greater strides forward than ever before. This progress is due partly to Mr. Stone’s whole-hearted interest and partly to the fine cooperation of its members. The 1930 Hi-Y'Club had an enrollment of 35 members. During the season var- ious campaigns were sponsored by this organization, the object being “To Create, Maintain, and Extend throughout the School and Community high standards of Christian Character.” 85 Junto Staff Robert Bare, Palmer Jago, Jack Klcinhans, Thomas Spenglcr. ?ollins, Helen Bugen.

OFFICERS President—Elizabeth Nolf Secretary—Dorothy Wai.lin Vice Pres.—Walter Updegrove Treasurer—Irma Liddle Advisor—Mr. Brotzman THE National Honor Society is to the High School what Phi Beta Kappa is to colleges. Membership is based on scholarship, citizenship, leadership, and service. Anyone who has attained an average grade of 90 for five semesters is eligible to the society. The members of this organization tutor delinquent students in all subjects. They also established a flower fund, used for sending flowers to all students who had been ill for a week or more. Every year the name of the best all-around member of the society is engraved on a cup. Mr. Brotzman is the faculty advisor, and he has done much for the organization. 87 Delegate Assembly President—Lester Smith Vice Pres.—Jack Kleinhans Secretary—Dorothy Walz SENIORS Chairmen Chairmen Vice Chairmen Vice Chairmen Daniel Anthony William Bryan John Gore Craig Jones Jack Kleinhans Vincent Owens Lester Smith George Walters Sylvia Brittain Margaret Collins Vincent Kwadinger Robert Kirchhofcr Douglas Lesher Elizabeth Nolf Gobin Transue Ruth Wallin Chairmen JUNIORS Chairmen Vice Chairmen Vice Chairmen Donald Campbell Edna Davis Merrill Hartzell Edgar Johnson Stephen Koji Fred Morganstern Russell Pcffcr David Schwimmer Dorothy Walz Alfred 'forranee Julius Brickcr Ilarmond Farr Anna Funk Margaret Mclrnc James Kirkpatrick Kenneth Mitman David Reibman Esther Ried Ray Williams Earl Sylvester Chairmen SOPHOMORES Chairmen Vice Chairmen Vice Chairmen Paul Arvcson Pete Casscdy Mary Louise Condran Paul Frederick Walter Holloway William Kclchner John McIntyre Ethel Rabuch Thelma Semple Robert Scigle Carl Veit Frank Weitzcnhofer Brooks Betts Frank Chiscsi Wood Collingc Frank Gerstncr Betty Gower Dorothy Iiuggan Evelyn Necb Edna Rapp Richard ochrank Donald Smith Mariam Watt James Wohlbach Frances Labate Margaret Rummer 88 Easton High School Association EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Standing, Left to Right: Jack Klcinhans, Kenneth Heinrich.

Greider THE Dewey Decimal Club was organized in 1926 by the staff of students who had been working in the library. At present the club consists of all students who work in the library or who have worked at least one year while in high school. There are also associate members who attend meetings and social functions but who do not work in the library. Meetings are held in the library the first and third Tuesday of each month, one being social and the other a business meeting. 90 Miscellaneous Clubs LITERARY CLUB President—Marjorie Love Secretary—Dorothy Lohr Vice President—Robert Bare Treasurer—Irvin Adams Faculty Advisor—Mr. Pole A matter of no small pride to the graduating class is the formation of the Literary Club. This club was or- ganized by students who felt the need of a greater knowledge of the classics other than could be obtained from the classroom. To stimulate a greater interest in the too oft-neglected gems of literature, a contest was sponsored bv the Literary Club in which students who displayed the greatest knowledge in book-lore were handsomely rewarded. NATURE CLUB President—Berry Levine Secretary—Henry Kourtz Vice-President—Marshall Sheldon Treasurer—Maxwell Smort Reporter—Berry Ixrvinc Easton High School’s first nature club was organized on March 16 by Mr. Abert Erb, who is the new head of the Biology Department. The initial purpose of the club is to stimulate the students’ interest in nature so that they will appreciate its beauty rather than destroy it. Activities of the Chib were featured by a weekly hike into the woods so that the members could receive first hand information on nature. SCIENCE CLUB President—Frank Brink Secretary—Tom Spenglcr Vice President—Maynard Liddlc Treasurer—William Bryan Advisor—Mr. Patterson The Science Club was organized under the old charter of the Radio Club. The year’s program was arranged so that each member could have an opportunity to present to the club a comprehensive survey of the particular branch of science in which he was most interested. The initial year of the Science Club has proven a success, and with the help and guidance of Mr. Patterson we feel sure that following organizations will enjoy the same prosperity. USHERS’ CLUB Head Usher—Robert Luccy Advisor—Mr. Hagerty The 1930 Ushers’ Club of the Easton High School was lead by Robert Luccy who made a very competent head usher. Throughout the season the boys did very commendable work, not only in high school activities, but in works sponsored by outside organizations. There were twenty members who gave active service. Mr. Hagerty, to whom much credit is due, was the faculty advisor, and meeting of the club were held upon his request. LE CERCLE FRANCAIS President—Jean Mellon Secretary—Lucy Stamets Vice President—Irma Liddlc Treasurer—Rosedith Sitgreaves Advisor—Miss Verna M. Reed The French Club was organized in 1925 by Miss Reed, and this year it was reorganized. The membership is honorary for second-year French students who have an average of 85 and third-year students who have an average of 80. The purpose is to promote French conversation and to study French customs. JR. HIGH ORCHESTRA Advisor—Mr. Erb Although this organization of Jr. High School students docs not receive much credit, if any, from the Senior High students, it is highly esteemed by the Jr. High faculty and student body. Mr. Erb, the director, has brought his thirty members up to a high standard of excellence which was proven by their concert given on December 7. 9 Easton High Orchestra Advisor—M r. Renkwitz npHE fine work of Mr. Renkwitz is as well demonstrated by the Easton High ■ Orchestra as by the excellent showing of the marching red coats. The climax of the musical season was reached in the well-balanced concert pro- gram given on March 6 in the auditorium. The other main incidents of the season were the accompaniment of the Operetta and the selections at the Senior Play. We do not hear much about the second orchestra, because the first one rather overshadows it, but nevertheless its members will be the stars of future concerts. 92 Easton High Band Advisor— Ir. B eam Tf ASTON High School for the past three years has had a band that would make many college organizations sit-up and take notice. The 1930 combination which worked under the capable supervision of Mr. Renk- witz gave a concert on April 10. This program beautifully illustrated the high type of work being produced by the band. Our High School musicians were also loyal supporters of the football team dur- ing the 1929 campaign. Much credit is due the second band which will most likely form the nucleus of our musical organizations during the next few years. 93 Senior Play “T AISY MAYME,” a play in three acts, written by George Kelly was chosen for the 1930 Senior Class production and was very successfully presented by two different casts on March 21st and 22nd. When we stop to think that the sum total of the plot was an older brother’s strife with a jealous sister against his marriage to a happy-go-lucky middle aged woman, we realize that the interest was dependent completely upon the individual characterization. Despite this drawback, both casts made the play a tremendous success by the sheer force of their personal delineation and deep character study. A question arises as to whether or not a play as hard to produce as Daisy Mayme was a sensible undertaking for an amateur group, but we will leave the answer to the superior judgment of Miss Emma C. Greider and Mr. Elmer J. Miller who work- ed diligently in coaching the two casts. 94 Operetta TT seems a tradition in Easton High School that the Operettas under the direction A of Mr. James Beam are always a huge success. “The China Shop”, written by Arthur Peun and presented by members of the Senior High School on February 21st and 22nd, was no exception to this tradition, for the excellent work of the cast and chorus made the annual production “go over” both financially and otherwise. A great deal of this glory, however, goes not only to the cast and Mr. Beam, but also to Miss Elizabeth Hillyer, the dramatic coach and Miss Helen Crenshaw, the accompanist. The Chinese settings designed and painted by the art students under the super- vision of Miss Peterson and Miss Sturtcvant were, without a doubt, the most beau- tiful ever seen on the Easton High School stage. 95 MONEY UUP I.DI70H IIS 5V-G0ME DAV3 0 JOHNNY TAkf: A JOV - Q.IDC.

Four long years she bore us bravely, But today the ocean’s past; We have reached the hoped for harbor, We have touched the shore at last. Four long years she bore us bravely, But today the ocean’s past; We have reached the hoped for harbor, We have touched the shore at last. We must leave the pleasant harbor, In our own small bark to go, On the high seas stormy pathway, Now our way we scarce can know. But thro’ storm as well as sunshine, We shall strive to honor truth; Noble deeds for our dear high school, Alma Mater of our youth.
