He was the new' athletic coach of the Georgetovvn High School, and in the three years he has accomplished miracles. The football team ol' '32 was composed of green men, as all the old ones had graduated. The team lost the first game of the season to Mil- ford by the score of 13-O. Heieafter they were no defeated. The next year the prospects for a team were brighter, Most of the rnembers were hack and vvere in excellent shape. The boys tore throuqh Frankford and Selbyville Without being scored on. Then they traveled to Salisbury and fought the best game of their career in a quagmire of mud, out-vveighted ten pounds to the man. The final score was 7-G. Derrickson returned a punt GO yards for the only score. The remainder of the games were won vvith ease. This year the team was composed of six veterans, the rest be- ing green nmen. The boys again lost the first ganme of the season to Milford, 13-12. They tiocl three and 'won Your for a good season. Captain '33 .... ........ W ulf Captain '34 ....

A Captain Derrickson led the Knights into thirteen games be- fore they learned the stinging bitterness ol' defeat. After this de- feat, which was administered by an underrated Lord Baltimore team, the team romped through the renmaining games on the sched- ule and played a three-ganfie series with Middletown to determine state champion, south oi' Wilmington. Of the team that made this record, four graduate this year, which leaves Coach Raymond only one veteran player for the corner- stone of the next year's team. I could go on indefinitely telling of this great team, which was composed of as fine a group of boys as any coach could wish for, but I will list the scores and let you readers draw your own con- clusions. 32-33 we-they Alumni 36-24 Greenwood 82- I S 334314 Lewes 22-SLS 9Y'We Selbyville 30.21, John M.

In this course we try to develop an appreciation for the rnusic ol' all time. We begin by studying early forms of music and trace them in a chronological order through present day modern rnusic. We endeavor to embrace every phase of music from simple folk songs to large symphonic vvor-ks. ' Harnionic theory is treated in an elementai-y fashion. This course offers the high school student an opportunity for u rather thorough orientation in the field of music appreciation. HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS In Human Relationships, the first senmester was devoted to Soci- ology. Some oi' our topics in this study were Population Problems, Immigration, The Evolution ol' the Family, Problems of the Modern Farnily,Poverty and Dependency, Religion, and Education. During the second semester, we studied Psychology. This unit. was composed of such subjects as Formation of Habits, Operation of Habits, Perception and Attention, Ideas, Concept: and Memory. ART The Georgetown High School has long vvanted and needed an Art Department. The year ol' 1935 has seen much that has been done by the Art students Linder Mrs. Herring's direction. The first real accomplishment forthe school was the Christmas mural. The Dickens' Panel and the May Day Panel were naarle by the Advanced Art class. The scenes above the fountains add beauty and color to the hallsg these scenes vvere clone by the eighth grade Art division. pugr ilgirigqfuur l Senior Dramatics 5 The Senior Dramatics Club meets cvery Tuesday afternoon dur- ing the Activity Period.

Yes, and it vvas a perfect day for sailing on that day in the first of September of 1923 when a crew ol' thirty-nine strong: twenty girls and nineteen boys, boarded th:- ship Education . Of course, you old salt, it was the class of HSS . On our first voyage, Miss Anita George served as u very efficient captain and things went as well as could be expected for our first trip on the sea of Life . On our second voyage we were under the cnptainship of Miss Winaman, but sailing was a little different as the novelty had worn off. Our third voyage was guided by Miss Sara Wilson and our fourth by Mrs. Crawford Baily, who vvon thc- hearts ol' the Class. The fifth was piloted by Miss Hoyt, who amused us and won our admiration through her talent in dramaties and declamationg and tho sixth by Miss Calloway. Then on the seventh voyage, the rules and regulations vvere changed and OUP l'OlIi.iHG NVDS not SO l'l'lOl'lOI,Ol'lO1lS DS bSfOI C. Our old ship had becorne dilapidated with the wean- and tear ol' the sea and with the storms el' Lifc . It was too small for the crew which had grovvn so in numbersg so on our eighth voyage we boarded a nevv and larger ship with modern equipment. Other ships consolidated and their crews boarded our ship. Six more sailors ,joined us at this stop. They had caught up with us by miss- ing one of the ports. They were listed on the ship's record thus: Dorothy Jones, Bettie Baer, Joscphync- Waples, .lack Townsend, Al- bert Montague, and Julius Cooper. Our crew had grown frorn thirty-nine to seventy-three strong. At this point of the voyage, there were only sixteen fleft of the c-riginal crew. Three gave up the shipg one died, nine were left behind and len had boarded other ships but were striving for the same port, Graduation . Thus we leave the river of Grammar School and the sea of Junior High School and are now upon the treacherous ocean of Senior High School. Bon Voyage to the class of SS , On our ninth voyage, looking 1-head, it seemed an endless trip to Graduation , but the years have passed unbelieveably fast. Now, vvilh our port in sight, we are reluctantly preparing to leave the old ship of Education after twelve long years on that turbulent Sea ol' life . From this port we vvill now board the ship of Experience . Here's luck to all of my shipmates and may they have a good wind and soon dock in the port of Suceess . WE ARE ALL SAILORS ON THE SEA OF' I.IFE g SO LET US ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT- A SAILOR'S HEART IS EVER TO THE SEA AND EVER ONVVARD.

Mildred Stocckel page furig-nn: port nd the blue ? Senior Prophecy I have just landed in the harbor oi' New York with my bag oi' dreams of the class ol' 1935 after five years of vvandering on the high seas. As I stroll along Broadway a window display of fashion clothes catches my eye, Ah, no wonder! Selma Holtz is the designer. She has just returned from Paris vvith all the new fashioned ideas. Further along the street I hear a familiar voice singing in Paul Whitnian's orchestra. It is none other than Charles Purnell, one oi' our class comedians. Charles Kohlenberg, our class rnusician, is also a memher of the orchestra. New York vanishes as niy bag of dreams carries me to Philadel- phia, just in front ol' the General Hospital. And, who might these two dignified looking nurses bei' They are Marie Cooper and Emma Collins. Both look very crisp and fresh in their white uni- l'orms and caps. I wonder who this business man is? Well, well, il' it isn't Irwin Murray working as an accountant for one of the big construction companies in Philadelphia! Carried further dowvn the line I find myself in front of another hospital. This time it is the Delaware Hospital in Wilmington, Mil- tired Atkins and Rachel King come out looking very precise in their white. In n lawyer's oITice, in the business section of Wil- mington, Margaret Wyatt is vvorking as a private secretary. There is also Mary Johnson, Millie Stoeckel, and Adel Calloway working in offices in diflerent sections of the city. Advancing dowvn the state, my dreams bring me in contact witli several teachers. They are: Edith Prettyman with her school girl smile, Dot Jones with her same ingenuity, Bettie Baer with her sweet disposition, and Marie Carson with her good-natured way. When I pass by Dover, I Find Drucilla Loper happily married flnd living on rx farrn. page fun-ig-liuu Coming back to faithful old Georgetown, I find several members of the Class of '35 busily engaged in different occupations-name- ly Lewis Marvel a printer, George Thoroughgood incorporated in his l'ather's lumber company, Charles Jones in the chicken busi- ness, Julius Cooper, a car dealer, and Henry Rogers manager ol thc- American Store. My dreams bring me visions now of prosperous farms. Who are the owners? Why they are Calhoun Elliott, James Pusey, Granville Marvel, Milton Johnson, Robert Rust, Stanley Hulse, David Dukes. and Wiilianx Virden. Catching a glinmpse of the Georgetovvn High School faculty, I no- tice that four of the 1935 class are members. They are: Paul Der- rickson and Ada Mae Warrington, atheletic teachers, Marion Lang- ford, commercial teacher, and Doris King, language teacher. My dreams would not be complete il' I left out those of the class that romance has blessed during these five years, and so I shall re- veal their names-Ruth Dawson, Ruth Derrickson, Elva Cordrey, Thelma Elliott, Helen Scott, Marian Sammons, Paul Richardson, and last Marjorie Hudson. QMarjorie caused the vvedding bells to ring wvhen she became the bride of Robert Kephart.j My dreams are vanishing as I stand on the pier at Lewes to sail on another voyage, but, oh who is this I see in a United States Navy outfit in the harbor? It is Albert Montague, another one of our class comedians-and recognizing me, he starts to clown.

Wliy do we place you, olil ivy green, At the base ol these walls today, Next the hard hare bricks, in the bleak north wlnzl As we journey on our way? You are the vvarden. olrl ivy green, Ot' our memories fond and true, ln your tender leaves are the tender thoughts Oi' the days that vvill soon be through. Your sturdy arms will gather them in, And your tendrils strong entvvine them. As you joyously wzmvo your leaves of green And creep ulonq nenth their verdant sheen, You will carry this song forever and aye To clamoring hordes that will come this way. Old Georgetown I-liqh, vve love you. The Ivy Oration Friends and fellow students of the Georgetown High School, xve are assembled today for the purpose of carrying on a very beau- tiful Custoni that was inaugurated five years ago, vvhen the Class c-l' 1980 placed an ivy plant nt the base of the nevvly-laid corner- stone of this building. We stand in sublime connevtion with the Past and with the Fu- ture. Although the one is irrevocable and the other is unknown to us, wve hold the former by history: the latter we possess by an- ticipation anrl by hope. Through long centuries of song and story the ivy has been a syinbol of sentiments that are inherent in human nature. It signi- fies loyalty and never failing affectiong stendfastness-be the vveather fair or foul. ' You will find it trailing everyvvhereg on churches, schools, his- toric buildings, and even the graves of those vvhose mernory must be kept forever green. Let us look for a moment at this rare old plant. -Here are the tender light hearted leaves ol' youth-reaching out from the parent stemg vvaving joyously in the crisp air and kindly sunshineg ex- ploring their little world, as it were, before seeking the support of an sheltering vvall. Here are the leaves of n later day. Their green is of darker hue, They are sturdy and strong from holding fast to their retaining wall while gathering strength from the elements that surround tl1en1. And here is the parent stem-hearty and hule but flexible still. Creeping along in its silent way, it bears the nmture and the new, tlruxving strength frorn the old and secure. pug: fnrig-fiur So should our lives ever beg our walls ol' brick and stone, the eternal verities of truth, honor, and loyalty, the sources of our vigor, faith, hope, and charityg our progress through life, strong, steadfast, modest. . Our life-work lies before us. A life of the highest endeavor can alone repay the debt we owe to our Alma Mater. As vve go from these halls into the battle-tumult of the vvorld, vvhere our :nis- sion is to be achieved and our rank among men decided, she bids us take up the line of advance into the future, and press with earnest purpose to noblest aims. The opportunities for a liberal culture that have been extended to us in the twelve years that are past, are the seeds that are to germinate and ripen into deeds. Our mental and rnoral possibilities are just blooming and coming to first fruits. All nature is full of unknown things, In the vvords of Disracli, I bid you, KEEP YOUR STANDARD OF KNOWLEDGE HIGH: ATTEMPT GREAT THINGS, EXPECT GREAT THINGS, AND YOU WILL ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS! We turn with grateful hearts to the kind Uinother of us all, under whose guardianship our minds have expanded and rnatured, and under vvhose loenignant care we have been prepared to dis- charge the mission to which educated men and vvonuen are call- ed in this wonderful age. She stands with vivid personality, in all the fullness ol' intelliqence, affection and will. As long as these Walls re-echo the footsteps of the ambitious pressing on toward the future, she will be as she has ever been, ti true person, a very Alma Mater to her children. We go tearfully from these venerable walls and these familiar scenes. We are severing, perhaps forever, the sacred ties that bind us to one another and to the school that has guarded and guided us. We regret most keenly now that many duties have been ill- performed, and that great opportunities have gone unneeded into the irrevocable Past. E111 the hours of the Present are golden, and the recollection of the happy days that we have spent together will ever brighten our pathvvay as we press vvith confident and hope- ful proniise into the Future. Fellow Classmates, the Ivy our President has planted is sym- bolic of the past, the present and the future of our class, For the past lt is like in kind to that which has been planted beforeg nor :ire we different from the thousands who have gone through sim- ilar phrases of development in this school. For the present it humbly takes its place beside that closely Woven vvreath vvhich is symbolic of undying loveg a vvreath vvhose attachrnent increasing vvlth age serves as protection and ornament to that stately edifice to which it clings. its future, like ours, is uncertain but hopeful. Grounded in this hallovvcd soil, nourished and encouraged by the meniories and achievements of the past may this Ivy be a symbol of develop- nient for us and lor you-Georgetovvn School, may its grovvth be deeper, broader, higherg and may its associations become closer and stronger. And now, dear Georgetown High School, We cannot say farevvellg our relations with you are not severed. Looking to you as a source of inspiration, we shall as men and women of the fu- ture ernbody .in our lives friendship, beauty, and power in accord- ance with the artist in the picture, vvith the Ivy in Nature and vvith your teachings in the realities of life.
