Tl1rLl's uothiu' to uifrite home about Glee Club, '26, Red Cross, '26, Forum Club, '27, Senior Literary, Senior Debating, Picture Committee, Art Editor, Baseball Championship Team, Volley Ball. De has won a place in our hearts by her pleasing and lovable traits. She is one of our Art Editors, and has proved her ability by her very original ideas. De is usually raving about her ??? at Lebanon, but then we understood when we met him. Devina is another of our good dancers. She is seldom seen without her side-kick, Ar- della. ELIZABETH AIILEN LIB ACADEMIC He alu't no trouble, just a lot of bother President, D.D.C., Crystal Bird Club. Elizabeth knows her Frenchg she can say, Parlez-vous Francaise. Isn't she wonder- ful? She hasn't decided whether she wants to be Mrs. or to remain a Miss. We wish her all the luck in the world in whatever she decided upon. WILLIAM HARRIS ARMICNTO UBILLN HSENORH SPANISH ACADEMIC You should see that girl Ex-Tech, Krust Klub, Band 1, 2, 3, Or- chestra 1, 2, 3, Basketball 2, 3, S.P.P.S. Club, Priestly Chemistry Club. when Bill is not with the gang or working at the Y , you are sure to find him 'way out on Market Street. He is a hard worker, and with his numerous wise- cracks he cannot help but make good at Gettysburg next year. Best wishes for success, SENOR. ROBERTA LEE ASKINS BERT ACADEMIC Hey-wait for me! S. G. C., Girl Reserves. The happy, carefree, impish kind- A sweeter girl you'll never find. Darn that bell! and Oh, kid,'l that's swell! These are the words we know so well. All hail! our blue-eyed blonde who seems to have gotten a lot out of her school years. She's studied some, giggled a lot, and made a host of friends. Bert's undecided as to her future, but we know that her sunny smile will make her successful in whatever she attempts. Thi'rty-four eg, M.

S. B. K., Krust Klub, S. P. P. S., Ex-Tech, Band 1, 2, 3, Class Color Committee, Priestly Chemistry Club. This industrious Scholar who hails from the wilds of 17th Street is rather popular with the young ladies of our school. Ed is talented along several lines, especially Spanish'!??-if you doubt it, ask Miss Line. John Harris will be losing a very valuable man in Senor both for his saxaphone and checker abilities. DONALD M. BAILEY DON DARBY ACADEMIC Had it up to 82 this morning Glee Club, Rifle Club, Shot Gun Club, S. P. P. S., Ex-Tech. Don is one of those happy fellows who is always smiling. He is one of the reliable members of the gun club. Being interested in shooting he would naturally turn to hunt- ing and thus he takes a day or so off now and then in deer season. Don expects to go to Gettysburg to finish his preparation for a business career. We wish him success. ROBERT HARTER BAKER BOB BAKE ACADEMIC I dimnofn Alpha Sigma Theta. Gun Club. Foot- ball '26, '27. Bob is one of those quiet, reserved huskies hailing from the frontiers of Pax- tang. As far' as the opposite sex is con- cerned Bake', shows no signs of ever hav- ing been exposed to them. We have a sus- picion that Bob works in an A and P store on the frontier-this may account some for the strength and skill he has dis- played on the football field. If at any time Bob gets stuck for some money he can resort to taxi driving for he has practiced long and hard for this job, in the good ole Dodge. IIELEN ALOTTA BATDORF WH1T1E ACADEMIC ' So there! Gypsy Rover, Glee Club, '27, '28, Wm. Penn History Club, Cherry Blossom. Helen is not a butcher's daughter, but she is vastly interested in her Butch Whenever you hear the piano in the audi- torium you can always be sure of seeing Whitie stepping it OH with a certain party. May she always trip through life in this manner. y-five . O v fi r W it swirl G. DALLAS BEACHLEY DAL PROFESSOR ACADEMIC D0n't afrgue with uncle Forum Club, Senior Debating Society, Orchestra, Senior Literary, Chemistry Club, Baccalaureate Sermon Committee, President Le Cercle Francaise, Glee Club, S. P. P. S. Dallas likes to take part in all the school activities. When he isn't playing on his fiddle, he is either trying to disprove Dar- win's theory of evolution or working out some hard geometrical problem. As a violin player he is par excellence, and he will con- tinue this work when he matriculates at Peabody Conservatory of Music. ROBERT M. BENDER BOB HOSELU HHERMITH ACADEMIC I could just lay down and bawl Section Representative '25, '26, Senior Literary Society, Flower Committee, Secre- tary of Hi-Y, S. B. K., Krust Klub. This young man will leave a place vacant at John Harris difficult to fill with the same sort of youth. Bob is an all around good fellow, and is quite popular with the girls. It is rumored that he is very studious but his social activities deny this. However, John Harris wishes you all the luck in the world Bob, and we hope that you succeed in the University of Pennsylvania. PAUL W. BIERSTEIN , BIERIE ' ACADEMIC What does that make me? Shot Gun Club, S. P. P. S., Gold Team, '27, '28, Bierie, one of Liberty Street's most prominent citizens, hails in at 8:40 A. M. to report for duty.

Joe is one of our speedy typists and even though we don't see her taking many books home in the evenings, she can still keep up in her studies. She expects to enter the business world. Thirty sw f ?A v Q1 as . . A -L2 1 WILLIAM CIIISAM BLACK '-BILL ACADEMIC Hi-ya, gang! Senior Debating Society, Glee Club, 1, 2, 3, Gypsy Rover Cast, Toreador's Cast, Cherry Blossom Cast. Bill is the original song bird of our class. His work in the Gypsy Rover, The Toreadors and Cherry Blossom was exceed- ingly well carried out. Although Bill is extremely busy he still finds time for social activities. Between writing letters to some sugar up at Bucknell and trying to make a certain girl in 114, he hasn't much time to himself. MARY ANN BOWVMAN LATIN ACADEMIC Hurry, Jean Red Cross Club, Senior Literary Society, Forum Club, S. P. Q. R. Latin Society. Mary Ann is one of our bright seniors.

Bob is our star athlete. She partici- pated in all sports, but that isn't the only thing she stars in-we hear there is a cer- tain Joe who takes up her time over the week-ends. Bobbie's sweet personality is to us as a drink of water would be to a man on the hot sands of the desert.

Dick prefers playing football to basket- ball, but it is rumored that he prefers basketball to making love. However, he says that variety is the spice of life. Due to superfluous remarks and inane speech to which he is much given-especially in the presence of the opposite sex-many a maiden has blushed and wrung her hands in despair. Dick will continue to better his scholastic record at Temple. llEI.I-:N EMMA Clank CLAIzKIE ACADEMIC What seems to be your discrepancy Forum Club, Glee Club, Delta Phi Theta, Sec. Sz Treas. of Senior Debating Society, Red Cross, Chairman Class Day Committee. Our Irish girl from Gary certainly showed us what energy and originality meant.

S., Senior Debating Society, Senior Literary Society, Le Cercle Francais, Chairman Constitutional Com- mittee, Trip Committee. And here, Ladies and Gentlemen, we have the head of our class himself. This young man has a serious expression but it general- ly doesn't mean anything. Besides his un- limited political ambition, his other bad habits consist of being an ofiice pest, sent with the compliments of Miss Hershey. CHANDLER W. COLQIYAHOIYX UCHANH ACADEMIC Yea, Verily French Club, Senior Literary Society, Chemistry Club, Business Manager of Pioneer. Yes, that good looking fellow with that curly hair, is no other than Chan himself. He is a gifted person to have such curly hair.

Lois biiAE DAVIDSON Lo ACADEMIC What makes you think so? C. T. J., Jr. Red Cross, Forum Club, Sr. Debating Society, Le Cercle Francais, Memorial Committee. Behold our dashing blonde! One look from her baby-blue eyes would melt any- bodyis heart. Her immense popularity is due, we are told confidentially, to the ever present waves in her golden hair.

For her ever ready smile and wit, we' shall remember this brown-eyed miss Escapades during her three years at John Harris. Her popularity is unbounded -due no doubt to her charming personality and friendliness to all. ALBERT EARLEY AL MANUAL ARTS In regard to Earley we can only say that the depths can't be probed. One of these strong, silent men of the West, guaranteed not to rip, snort ofr wear down at the hips.

But honestly, we expect great things from Albert and we're sure he won't disappoint us.

Gin came to us as a freshman from a private school in York, and we have never regretted her choice. Ginnie doesn't give advice often but when she does-it is taken. She is our most ehicient secretary. Gin is a good student, and the teachers insist she would be better if she gave more time to her studies. TRUMAN ESHENAUR EsHEY HPEGH MANUAL ARTS Hey, Stuff. Woodworking Club.

We want to say right here that we think the person who wrote the class will missed a wonderfull chance to do a philanthropic deed-that of bequeathing a perputal street car 'ticket to Merald for Steelton. Evidently a certain Margaret is dazzled by this brawny brute of a football player. Well, Fashion Plate will be able to save a good bit of money by printing his own announce- ments for different things, since he is going to take a position in the government print- ing office. Best wishes, Merald. JAMES NEY7ILlIE FIRESTONE JIM FLASH D'idja ever hear this one? M. M. S., Gun Club, Basketball, Track, Football, Dance Committee.

This is one of Mr. Nye's favorite pupils in Trig. because of his unusual ability. He is overflowing with wisdom and knowledge of which no other senior can boast. Snortin is one of our Auto mechanics, and he must surely be a good one to keep his Lizzie in such good running order. He is trying to keep secret the fact that he is catering to a girl in Penvbrook. We wish him all sorts of luck when he leaves John Harris. DONALD F. GOHL HDONY7 KIGOHLY7 HGOOLH Cut it out, Moller' Rifle Club, 2, 3, 4, Gun Club, S. P. P. S., Chiarman Color Committee.

So far we can't discover a maiden fair, but we have hopes and remember-the longer they wait, the harder they fall! Robert's plan for his future is very attrac- tive-he expects to make a barnstorming trip over the northeastern part of the United States. The best of wishes, Rabbi. ELEANOR GRAEFF COMMERCIAL Let's go, huh? Senior Literary Society, Hockey, '28, Eleanor is the little miss with the beauti- ful wistful big, blue eyes.

We feel that her patients will surely be lucky. We wish you success, Teeney. Fifty-one fA?m! I- , +V - 4 -1 w M A 'se . A ETHEL LTYERS TTSU ' COMMERCIAL Oh, my gosh N. B. P., J. F. F., Hockey Team. We don't see Ethel standing down on Commercial Avenue anymore with Harry. It seems that Harry has moved out of our city -but he's still here in spirit because isnyt Ethel with us?--and one plus one equals one, doesn't it? Well, if it doesn't always, it does in their case-anyhow we think he's lucky and she can drive the car when they go on dates. We'll bet with her training as a bookkeeper she can keep a good budget! U1 HE HELEN V. NYE KCBUS7! J. F. F., Hockey and Volley Ball Teams. There is no need to say much about Helen because we all know what a cute girl she is. Bus is going to be a musi- cian-just look at her hair! Besides being seen at all the sorority dances, she is seen participating in all sports. We wish her luck in her future life. RUTH ELAINE NYE RUTHIE ACADEMIC Whoopee S. G. C., S. S. S., Senior Literary So- ciety, Secretary of Le Cercle Francaise, Glee Club, Baccalaureate Sermon Com- mittee. Always smiling and cheerful our Ruthie has won a place in the hearts of her class- mates which will be diiiticult to fill after she has left. Ruth is going to take up Home Economics at either U. of P. or Car- negie Tech., and we all know that wherever she may go the friends she will make may consider themselves fortunate. The best of luck and all success to you, Ruthie, lXlAImAR1cT GEORGIA PATTUN PEGGY ACADEMIC Oh, re-ely Forum Club, Senior Debating Society, Le Cercle Francaise, Glee Club. Just one look at this fair maiden and we all know why men's hearts Hutter. Peggy the sweet, modest little girl of section 13 hails from the wilds of Dauphin. She is rather quiet and unassuming which possibly accounts for her large number of friends. Peggy has obtained a good start toward her future career for she may always be seen flying for the cafeteria. llfly I n mv IDI CIR A KW! Ra f i? I ELEANOR EDITH PEDLOW .

J., Chairman Class Play Committee, Glee Club, Gypsy Rover Chorus, Toreador Cast, Cherry Blossom Cast, Forum Club, Senior Debating So- ciety, French Club. Gaze upon this fair damsel! One look at her and We can readily see why a certain member of our football team has been so successful this year due to her inspiration. Besides possessing a charming personality, she also sings like a nightingale. Many of us are well aware of this fact through the performance in The Toreadors, and Cherry Blossom. Al.BPIli'l' EARL PHELABAUM UNUTSYH AL ACADEMIC Gomer did it. Whoo-pee Jokes Editor. They certainly picked the right fellow for Jokes Editor. Al is a well-known clown. me is a good friend of both sexes, and admires the opposite sex especially well. Al seems to have a weakness for buying candy and Stringing beads. We wonder who taught him the latter. Albert is al- ways falling in and out of love, but he knows that we wish him success in either his business life or his love affairs. W. HOWARD PHILLIPS USLITTSU LATIN ACADEMIC Behold the marathon runner of John Harris! Here was the best long distance and cross country runner of last seas0n's track. Besides this, we find the main reason for his high marks in school due to good attention and careful manipulation of time. Coach Thomas will have a hard time in filling Phillips' position on the track squad, but Slitts is ready to further his educa- tion at some higher institution of learning and set more good examples. VVI1.I.IAM KIRK PINDER BILL LATIN ACADEMIC I dunno' Basketball, '27, '28, Baseball, '27. This good looking chap is quite a student. He is one of the few athletes that are good students. Athlete? You bet! Ask anyone who has seen him in action on the gym Hoor. He is certainly a fast basketball player-and not a bad baseball player either. Although Bill is a modest, un- assuming young man, he must have his fun, and have it he does! Fifty-tlwcc V ik! I- -41 QL A E ik -1 U41 i e!! BIILDRED QUAIII SHoRTY ACADEMIC :tok mylar Glee Club, Tumbling and Pyramid Building Club, Forum Club, Senior Debat- ing Society, Athletic Association, Senior Literary Society. By the looks of things Shorty keeps herself quite busy with her many clubs. If brains were mountains, our Shorty would be Pike's Peak. She can almost make you believe six times two are eleven. She will try to prove it too! We graduates aren't supposed to count, you know-just a little Algebra, Chemistry, Latin, Short- hand, or something you never heard of-so we'll just guess there are about a dozen freckles on Shorty's fair face- J. ll1ARGUERI'l'E QIIICKEI.

CATIII-:RINE lGI.IzAIsIf:'rH lilClCSER KAY COMMERCIAL Hot time last night Volley Ball, Class Day Committee, N. B. P., Gregg Association, Glee Club. Catherine is one of those girls who has a smile for everyone. One never sees her without. Her one great enemv in the school is Mr. Keller. We always look for a slight argument between the two with Catherine coming out ahead, Mr. Keller being speech- less. She is a good dancer, and enjoys dancing with Ken better than eating. llOI'lSl+l RICrIAIcIIs COMMERCIAL I didn't-Mr. Keller O. T. J., Forum Club, Senior Debating Society, Glee Club, Class Representative. You are now gazing upon the lovely yet wise maiden of our class. Ask her any question about Women's Rights, and you will hear one good argument-Cespecially in Sociologyj. That's all right, Louise, we admire you for defending your sex. It takes some time to really know Louise, but once she allows you to enter that sacred circle of her friends, you may feel very fortunate indeed. 1 ff111-f UNI' as r g Q I- Q J L 1 Bsis,,,L,,e53 Enrrn ROSENBERG HEDIEU COMMERCIAL Oh honest Prof.-I did Glee Club, Red Cross, Basketball, Cham- pionship Baseball Team, Hockey, Volley Ball, Track. Laugh, clown, laugh! When it comes to making the kids laugh, just ask Prof. U1 to call on Edie, She certainly is witty and has a keen sense of humor. Wherever you see Freddie you are sure to see Edie In fact they are inseparable. Only once do we remember that Edith lost her sense of humor, and then she was melan- choly. That was when Sam said HONEY DEW, but all Edie could reply was, 'fwc canteloupe because duty calls. KATHERINE ROUNSLEY KATE COMMERCIAL Oh my heavens This modest, unassuming young lady hails from the metropolis of Penbrook. She is rather shy and timid, yet when you be- come acquainted with the hard worker you cannot help but like her. In fact, when- ever you are in some difficulty and want help, just go to Katherine. Well, Kate, here's good luck and may you make as many friends in the future as you have made in John Harris. JANET EHRHART RUDOLPH JAN ACADEMIC Be yonfrselffn Delta Sigma, O. T.

She is an excellent student and a wonderful athlete, especially wonderful when giving her difficult gym exercises??? Jan never needs a friend for they all Hock to her at her Beck and call! Janet's smiles and yawns are con- tagious, and we are sure she will have a happy and successful future in dancing. WIIILIALI M. Russ GULLY Russ Do you have yer Spanish cribbed fofr Liney? S. B. K., Hi-Y, Krust Klub, Class Day Committee. Here we have one of the jolliest persons of our class as well as one of the prominent socializers. Bill has reached graduation with the minimum amount of energy, but this can be attributed to his social nature. He is a good mixer and a good student.

Never- theless this is not the only thing she is successful in and we know she will con- tinue to be so when she takes up teaching. If she gets along as well with her kinder- gartners' as she does with her classmates, she will surely be successful. CHARLOTTE G. SCHELHAS BOB ACADEMIC You're Pots J. F. F., Flower Committee. Here we have the young lady that can dance like nobody's business. In fact she is the originator of the Donkey Trot. She takes great pride in her chemistry. Besides school work the thing she likes best is to go to dances, and not only to listen to the orchestra. There is another attraction. No one has captured Charlotte's heart as yet but she has had some violent crushes. KATHERINE SELLERS KAY COMMERCIAL Nobody's business how long I stay out Here we find one of our quiet girls of Section F. We see very little of her in school, but she certainly must do some studying to get through. Although Kay appears to be a man-hater, we think that you will find out differently if you will visit Middletown. Katherine expects to go out into the business world. Here's wish- ing you luck. GRACE ELIZABETH SHAFFER BATTY ACADEMIC I wonder! Class Basket Ball, Base Ball, Hockey Team, Operetta, Fair Committee, Red Cross, Le Cercle Francaise. Behold! John Held Junior's only model. Betty is quite a social butteriiy, but she always has her lessons done on time. Her winning smile and ways have played an important role during her high school days. She knows her Caesar but Joe seems to be calling her. Betty expects to further her education by entering Hood College next September. Fifty six J L . A 85,944 ITELEN CATHERINE SHAFFNER KUKU COMMERCIAL AW minjan Juno wot Glee Club, Red Cross, Hockey Team. The Commercial Class this year seems to be made up entirely of laughing, jolly girls. Kuku seems to be the jolliest of all. But even at that, Helen is a fast worker and she certainly has the ability of doing her work in an orderly manner. Helen is as yet undecided as to her future work, but we wish her the best of luck in anything she may decide to do. MERTON SHAYEK MERT ACADEMIC Alright Behold our modern Shakespeare! Mer- ton is sure to say his little speech about any subject that is being discussed. We all know that is a great art, but Mert is more inclined to be a big out-door man. He is fond of all sports and especially shines in track. Perhaps, someday, we will hear of Merton talking to the trees, for he is planning to take up Forestry at Penn State. EMMA Blllililki Sl1Aw1f'xELn EMMA JANE ACADEMIC I davit have wowls to express myself S. G. C., President S. S. S., Senior Liter- ary Society, Forum Club, John Harris Times Staf, Senior Debating Club, Le Cercle Francaise, Varsity Basketball Team, Junior Basketball Captain, Constitution Committee, Play Committee. You are now gazing upon Daniel Web- ster's only rival. Some words in her vocab- ulary, however, can be found in no diction- ary. Emma Jane is what we term the Real American Girl, she is talented along all lines. ALMON SI-HRK AL MANUAL ARTS Tish, tish, eckel, Smeckeln S. B. K., Orchestra, Band, Jazz Band, Hi-Y. Cast your shiners on the future big cheese of the New York Philharmonic So- ciety. We certainly don't know what Ulna would do without Shirky holding up his end of the noise in the band and orchestra. Sometimes when we hear vague noises in the wee sma' hours of the morning, we wonder whether Al is serenading the fair Sara, or whether he is just naturally having convulsions. B zfty-seven , 1 . I 1 wg V X r vsmggard ELIZABETH SHOPE LIB IRREGULAR For Hezwen's Sake Lib usually knows her law in class. We believe we could make a young lawyer out of her. She says she doesn't study, but she knows it just the same. We hear she is quite interested in a certain Harry from -can you guess where-the Big Town of? Elizabeth expects to go into training for a nurse in one of our hospitals. We wish her great success in what ever she may do. Hl'Il.EX SlNU'l'1l USMITTYH ACADEMIC TheoreticaIly- Glee Club, Red Cross Club. That saying still water runs deep finds proof in Helen. One would think to look at her walking dreamily through the halls that she was in some other world. We wonder if she will be so unconcerned when she comes in contact with the outside world. She thinks she will take up art, but we have an opinion about what kind cf art it will be. Perhaps J. S. can confirm our opinion. KIRK SNYDEIQ KIKE MANUEL ARTS Hi ya, Squirt? Band, Chairman Photograph Committee. Kike seems to be very popular with the girls because ,most any time you are liable to run across him talking to a couple of them. It is also rumored that he has a brain. We are not sure about this. Kike is an electrician, but as yet is undecided as to where he will further his education. No matter where he may go we are sure he will be a success and we all wish him the best of luck. MIRIAM S1-ow MIM ACADEMIC Ask somebody that knows Glee Club, Forum Club, Senior Debating Society, Tumbling and Pyramid Building Club. Good goods come in small packages, and no one dare add the phrase, and so does poison to Mim. Miriam is one of those girls who gives you the impression that she is quiet as a mouse, but when you really get to know her she is quite a jolly companion. She has proved herself a very competent chemist, having tried num- erous times to make our stay on this planet shorter. X .

Steve is our little boy who likes to argue with everybody and anything. He is a favorite with all the teachers, who love his bright witticisms with which he enlivens the class. We cannot understand how Steve gets his lessons studied, 'cause the girls can hardly keep away from him that long, he makes them weak! Steve will go to the Philadelphia School of Pharmacy to become a druggist. Carry on Lew and good luck. HELEN :MAE STERNER . COMMERCIAL Well, I like that. N. B. P., Memorial committee. Anyone looking for a true friend will surely find one in Helen. She never says much, but believe us, those precious mo- ments when she does speak are well spent. Helen seems to have a secret all to herself about somebody by the name of Bob We have never heard of Helen's plans for the future, but whatever they may be, we wish her all the success in the world. GLADYS SUMMERS HDAZZYH Fm tellin' you, babe. Oh, boloneyf' D. D. C. Society, Crystal Bird Club. When Dazzy leaves us she intends to go to Wilberforce University, that is, if something doesn't prevent her. Well, Dazzy if you master your studies as well as you mastered the Collegiate everything will be O. K. M. N. X. We Wish you the best of luck.

K., Orchestra, Jazz Band, Forum Club, Senior Literary Society, Krust Klub, Play Committee, Junior Debating Team, Le Cercle Francaise. Swopie is one of those rare persons who smiles from dawn to dusk. He is somewhat of a ladies' man, but most noticeably af- fected when he sees Ginny. In Miss Hershey's class Blondie can be depended upon to open his mouth and then stick his foot into it, nevertheless, he most always comes out on top. Harold is somewhat of an executive too, as shown by his work as editor of the Pioneer. Fi f ty-nine .

She likes to swim better than anything else, and we wonder if Dan isn't the real cause of that. You can see Fred and Dan any day paddling up the river. Fred is well liked by all, and we know if she decides to take the domestic course, she fviill paddle her way blissfully through I e. I THOMAS THOMPSON HYONNE YUMPs 'MANUEL ARTS Fm gonna lay one on ya' W Yonne is the boy with talent but he lacks the study. He is also very much of a woman-hater, at least, We are told this by the boys. But then, boys always say they are girl-shy. We wonder why? As an auto mechanic he is the prize of the auto shops. We wish you all the luck in the world while striving for success. CAROLINE ALICE THOMPSON CAROL SPANISH ACADEMIC Oh, kids! What would our band and Glee Club do without our Caroline? She knows her notes and no kiddin'. Carol says she is going to Beckley's in order to learn the art of being Somebody's Stenog, -but,-well, we have our doubts. But seriously speak- ing, we wish her all the luck in the world in whatever she may do. CHARLES DAVID UMHOLTZ CHUG ACADEMIC Hi-Y, Band, Orchestra, Jazz Band, Ring and Seal Committee. Here is one of the most industrious boys of our class. Chug is quite an accom- plished musician besides being a very good student. Although he is usually very busy with his numerous activities, he always has time to lend a helping hand. Charles has not yet decided about his future, but we are sure it will be a success. Sixty Q. Imam v H ' iish,i,,a53 ETHEL -UPDEGRAFF EDDIE IRREGULAR For cryin' out loud Ethel is another of the quiet, timid girls of Section F. But still water runs deep and we wonder who the Rich is she talks about. She spends a good deal of her time in Miss Richardson's room doing quite fine things, we hear. Ethel expects to go to Philadelphia to study art after graduation. Good luck, Ethel. ROBERT VVAGNER BOB ACADEMIC Hi ya', Babe Band, Orchestra, Glee Club, French Club, Senior Literary Society, Hi-Y. This young man leads a dog's life, not only at school, but wherever there are any creatures of the fair sex. The girls all gather around him to hear his melodious voice and to see him stroke his beard. Bob has a hard time keeping his dates straight, and especially his invitations to private dances. We hope Bob doesn't get tied up before he is an accomplished re- search engineer, but we can only look for the best. Well, Bob, we all wish you lots of luck. NICLDA lllAE WALTON TINY COMMERCIAL Earl said-- V O. G. G., Red Cross, N. B. P., Alphi Chi. You are 'now gazing upon one of the smallest girls of the class. Tiny seems to be very fond of the name Earl and we all wonder why. She has a great liking for up-town, and we know it can't be be- cause of WILLIAM PENN. But that's all right, Tiny, it's a nice place. Nelda is talking about being somebody's stenog- rapher, but we don't know. We wish you good luck, Nelda, whatever you may decide to do. . . ' RUTII ANTER XVASIIINGTON Rows COMMERCIAL Which is the biggest? Baseball Team, Hockey Team. Ruth is a very good student, but what we want to know is how she can be so well prepared in her lessons and yet visit Car- lisle so often. We certainly do wonder what the attraction can be. Ruth is like what the rest of the women are supposed to be-undecided. Here's to your success, Rufus when you reach your decision.

Whenever we hear a young lad around John Harris or elsewherefl? humming The Girl of my Dreams, or The Blue of her Eyes and the Gold of her Hair we can be almost positive they mean Winsome Win- nie. No foolin'- Winnie's personality is a charm and has won her many a friend. Her school activities speak for themselves, but Winnie's favorite hobby is painting. llrlARGARET M. XVILBERT PEG PEGGY MAE COMMERCIAL Do you have your law done? N. B. P., O. G. G., Glee Club. Peg is the live wire of Section F. But in spite of all her foolishness, she is gen- erally prepared in her lessons. Peggy Mae has some interest in Steelton. Per- haps she likes the Steel works, you never can tell. Peg says she is going in train- ing. We all wonder what for. We wonder if she knows that she has the best wishes of the class. NIAEION I. WIIISON BABE COMMERCIAL N. B. P., S. G. C., Baccalaureate Com- mittee. You are now gazing upon one of the quiet conservative girls of Section F. I say one, because there are about two of them. The others are what Miss Read calls live wires. But Babe is always well pre- pared in her lessons. Marion seems to be attracted by Section C. After her gradua- tion Marion expects to enter the business world. We all wish you the best of luck, Babe, ROSE ALICE VVIIASON BUDDY ACADEMIC D. D. C. Buddy expects to be a nurse, we expect her to be one, but will she ever become a nurse? Let's hope she will stay at Mercy Hospital more than six weeks. You know these nurses fall for their patients, and Buddy's winning smile, if not anything else, will win her many friends. Good luck, Buddy, we wish you just heaps of uck.

Zach and his jazz-time yodeling cer- tainly go over big around the school, he was a main factor in the Glee Club and the orchestra. As he is musically inclined, we wanted him to put on dark glasses and go down on Market Street and sing, but he decided he would leave that job for Bill Holsberg and continue his studies at Frank- lin and Marshall. Zach', is the designer of our class seal and he has always been ready to lend a helping hand wherever possible. His wit is a factor in making classes less boresome. JOSICPHINE ZEIGLER JO ACADEMIC Be yourself Introducing Jon-one of the jolliest girls we know.

M 5 53 on o Girls' History of MidfYear Class '29 ' ' ' lt seemed that we'd never get there, we had been on this old sixth street ear for hours and hours. Finally somebody from the front of the ear yelled Heres the end of the ear tracks, it ean't be much farther. So out we piled and feeling like little Red Riding lloods not just knowing what we were going to meet in these woods, we walked down the path winding through the tall trees to that long low building with its glazed windows and smoke stacks. We had promised ourselves that wed try to keep our eyes and ears open and our mouths closed but when we looked down the long, long hall that we would have to traverse every morning lim afraid our jaws did drop a little. However, we swallowed hard, took a deep breath and started down that hall not only toward the auditorium but toward the education that we were going to base our whole life on, and what a tirm foundation those teachers gave us! Such an odd building! Une entered a classroom. expecting to get one elass but found that she seemed to be in-three classes at one time. Sometimes it would be History class that she expected to attend but she would hear an English class and a Mathematics class also. NNN- found that the division between the rooms was temporary and was made therefore from Beaverboard.

Just soon as we got adjusted and learned how to get the best out of every- thing we were told the new high schools were ready, so we shook hands with all our classmates who would stay at William Penn, swore undying friendship, even though we would be rivals, turned our backs to the machine shops and came to John Harris. Here we didn 't have to pretend that we werenlt new for everybody else was too. The only thing that we could laugh at the others about, was the length of the main hall. The new soph 's had just come from Edison where the halls are short and the stairs were manyg the same with the fellows from Teeh. With so beautiful a school we couldn 't resist bringing all our friends out to see it and as a result we spent most of our Saturdays and Sundays at sehool as well as week days. The boys certainly were a question! After having had just enough of Public Speaking tllasses to have acquired a little stage poise, then to have a bunch of boys put in that class above all others-well, you ean imagine 'ODI' em- barrassment ! But we got used to them, you know, they say you can get used to anything-even hanging, if you're at it long enough. By the end of our Sophomore year we had settled down into the routine and our Junior year came along with all the fun of champion football teams, plays, musical comedies, debates, ete. lt seemed that nothing more could be packed in a year than we had in our .lunior year. Thus endeth the reading of the History. RUTH BYLER Eiglzvty-111 free ,1:m'i 2.4 sfzilf 55.-J 1 ,gb , - ilkkflii ' ', cr 2? 'iifeii lt 3' 4 W S .ward I ' fp '5 Qaojvfa, I V . . T Boys' Class History It was a. cold blustering day, inlsililebruary, 1926 'when we as sophomores first entered Tech. Vile felt rather -proud 'to be enrolled as Tech students, as we knew that we were the last class that would ever enter those halls and class- rooms. A proper reception committee of juniors and seniors who endeavored to sell us the school 's songbooks, seats in chapel, and tickets to study hall met us in the halls. A few members of our very much freightened class Hbitl' and be- came the laughing stock of the whole school. Later we were ushered into the auditorium where we were assigned to our home rooms. Then began the half year of study that passed so quickly into history. The last Tech basketball team had a brilliant season, winning the Central Pennsyl- vania League Championship and capturing third honors in the Penn State tournament. The baseball team also had a. successful season and we were proud to be classed as students of a school that had such teams to represent it. During this semester we enjoyed various activities put on by the last Tech graduating class. These activities included the Minstrel show and a movie, t'Thc Knockout, both were held for the benefit of the year hook. The last day came before we were aware of it and we had to leave forever the halls and classrooms we had learned to love. Vile, however, looked forward to the time when we should enter the new co-ed high school out on the hill. Classs opened two weeks late at the new school because the building was not ready for occupation. It was a novel experience for us to enter that un- finished building. The auditorium, both gymnasiums and the library were still under construction. Conspicuous by their absence were thc pavements for the accommodation of the students, and many wet and muddy shoes accompanied with loud cries of distress were very much in evidence. Regardless of these facts We enjoyed going to school in the new building. Although we were still sophomores the seniors forgot us and we spent a peaceful half year hard at work on our studies. The first John Harris football team, considering the many difficulties it had to surmound, made a very creditable showing. How well we remember the old pep meeting held in the girls' gym. where standing room only could be secured. Time passed quickly, and February soon arrived. Most of us then became juniors and had the feeling that we were getting on in the world. This year was marked by the rapid progress in the construction of our building. By the end of the semester the construction work was very nearly finished and we were justly proud of the school we were to be able to call our alma mater. Although the basketball, baseball and track teams were rather unfortunate during this season, the name of John Harris was boosted still higher by the band and the orchestra, who won the musical contest from VVilliam Penn. Hur vaca- tion soon arrived and we reluctantly put our materials for securing an education away until the next fall when we would be allowed tm resume our studies. Vacation passed and strange to say we were glad to return to school. This year our football team had a more successful season. On Thanksgiving day they defeated William Penn before a record crowd. There was much rejoicing on the hill that night and everyone in the school was happy. Vile had plenty to be thankful for that day. Eiglz ty-four , mv sway! .af With the arrival of February we bteame seniors and we all felt a lot higher in our own estimations. The basketball this year although not so successful served to keep the enthusiasm and spirit of the sehool at a high pitch. The baseball team hit their stride this season and won everyone of their games. The track had a fairly successful year and won the dual meet from William Penn. This gave us victories in three of the major sports. V aeation was soon upon us again and we looked forward to the time when we, as seniors, should get back to school and finish our work. Vacation was soon over and we were again back in school. We organized our class and had election of officers. Mr. B. VV. Saul was elected dean and Ray Cobaugh was eleeted president. The presidential campaign was hotly contested, requiring about eleven or twelve ballots to elect a president. The other officers selected were: Virginia lflrdley, secretaryg Ross Jenkyns, treasurerg and Harold Swope, editor-in-chief of the year book. The football team this year won the majority of its games but lost to Vllilliam Penn. The seore was 18-0 and this gave William Penn permanent possession of the first football trophy. On January seventeenth and eighteenth the Uperetta, HMiss Cherry Blossom was presented. The eighteenth was elass day, and also the last day on which we had to attend school. A . MGX- Q . .

The Editor came dashing up to me this morning, seemingly all hot and bothered- Say, you have a diary, don 't you?H he inquired. And before I thought I answered, Sure, Well, we've lost the class minutes and I thought since you were the only one that kept a diary you'd write up what has happened in the class since it organized. Would you?'! Taking my answer for granted, he rushed off. I didnlt even get a chance to explain-You know yourself, Diary, that I haven't written in you since one month after by birthday when my good resolutions to tell everything to you, rather died. But I've been to almost every class meeting so I'll do my derndest to remember. Let 's see-along around-- June 1. Seniors called to study hall in Activity period! After our first thought of What have we done now?i' We decided it must be our first class meeting. Harold Swope was appointed temporary chairman and we got right down to the business of organizing the class. A constitution committee was appointed. June 8. Nominations for officers. Harold Swope and Murray Swingley are most popular candidates for president. Just time for one ballot-neither had a majority! June 15. Well! You can't say the class isn't keeping up with modern times! Talk about your Presidential campaigns-there aint no flies on us! This last week was one exciting time, what with one faction getting out red tags and the other electioneering, etc. We cast voteswright and left-and no one can ketch a majority. A black horse has appeared since Murray left on the ocean trip, one Ray Cobaugh. But the meeting ended with no one elected. What a way to start the summer vacation! September 15. VVe all seemed to have made up our minds during the summer for in the first ballot Ray was elected. He showed his ability from the beginning by the startling vocabulary he uses in his speeches. After two or three meetings we got in the habit of carrying little pocket dictionarys to study hall every Tuesday. September 22. Diary!! NVe almost missed having an individual year book! If it hadn't been for Mr. Saul missing some of his classes Cmuch t-o their sorrowj to argue with the board, we wouldn't have had any. As it is, we're only allowed to spend something like 581200 on it. And, Diary, we aI'en't allowed to sell candy or sponsor tea dances or anything. Me must make the musical comedy a success.

I've been under morphine for a week trying t-o get a vision for the Class Prophecy. I was just thinking that you didnlt look so good. You don't look so pleasant yourself! But I guess nothing short of a ni htmare could show us the futures of our 'cosmopolitan' classmates. g 'tGee, Ruth, that 's a 50c wordf' AnyhoW, I still insist that I don 't like this 'visionl type of prophecy. Let 's just talk the kids over- The chance of a lifetime! Get going, Dot, get going--you tell me the futures of about ten or fifteen of the well-known ones, then I'll tell some, ch what?,' Have you heard that Gomer is already looking for the 'first lady'-VVill I be old enough to vote then? Never vote, Dot, keep your age a secret. Alright, and therels Philabaum, hcls a walking illustration of why we should buy Christmas Seals !--Oh, Dallas Beachley reminds me exactly of John Barrymore in Don Juanw or .lack Gilbert in 'tMasks of the Devil. Huffer and Holsberg will of course go into partnership as Trip and Fall, Detectives. While welre talking about the weather, I think Helen Clark will insist on making Women's Suffrage her life-work even though we already have free voting--or whatever it is. Ruth Fackler intends to do cartooning and whistling for the Patriot- Whoa, Dot, take a breath once in a while, itis my turn. If you u'0n't talk about him, I will. Methinks Blondy will follow llliss Allema.n's prophecy of being a preacher. The girls will adore him in the robes of an Episcopal minister. His right hand man will be Ross Jenkins I am sure, who is planning to be a Sunday School Superintendent. Speaking of churches reminds me, Fasick and Kichman told me they intend to own and operate a special press for the purpose of printing Bibles to send to Eleanor and Bill who will be missionaries in China. Say, Ruth- Don't interrupt me- But we've forgotten our class officers l l So we have! Oh, Allah, Allah! But lll2lliS easy, Cobaugli will make some rich woman a wonderful husband! I disagree, I think he has the best intentions of being a 'big gun' in the 'Racket' Can't you see him sitting in a luxurious office. smoking a big black cigar, giving orders to his henchmen, some dressed like dudes, others as tough looking as our fellows after a club initiation.

Ginny Erdleyg I pieture her in a big reception hall of a beautiful and spaeious home receiving the 400, being very taetful and making everyone feel that they are the only ones that Virginia is interested in. It probably never happened before that the entire 339 were unanimous in liking someone, but it 's that personality again, she and Clara Bow certainly keep this world going- Fm swamped under, Dot, and besides, I ean't think of another thing to call anybody, ean you ?-l know! I know what you're going to be ten years from now, it 's as clear as a pieture, you 're going to be a psehyeologist and I can see Skeet bringing her ehilclren to be psehyeo-analysized!

The most important event of the evening was the chicken and waffle dinner. The student who ate the most was permitted to give the class an impromptu after dinner speech, live minutes long. We made this offer, in order to induce the manual arts boys to do full justice to the meal that was set before them. The manager of Chef's and the Banquet Committee placed only one re- striction on the class, namely, that anyone attempting to get away With any silver-ware would be severely reprimanded. This warning was published es- pecially for the benefit of a certain group of Seniors who had a luncheon at the Coatesville, Y. M. C. A. on the day our team played the Coatesville team to a tie. CAsk Don Huffer for an explanation of this refereneej. The Banquet Committee had the hall decorated in Maroon and Grey, our class colors. We assure you that the individual favors given besides being appropriate, caused much laughter and in a few cases momentary embarrassment. Cur guests for the evening included Mr. and Mrs. VValter E. Severence, Miss Annabelle Swartz, Mr. Bertram Saul, Mr. Vlna l . Goodall, Mr. Ralf L. Neigh, Mr. M. NV. Albright, Mr. VV. Q. Bunderman, Miss Van Dyke and Miss Read. VVe need not say that we hope everyone had a good time, because we know they did. This banquet was probably one of the most pleasant, instanees in our high school career. ' The Class Trip The class trip was one of the most extensive and interesting that any High Selioolhgenior Class has ever taken from Harrisburg. The entire trip covered a period of three days and each moment was devoted to some well planned and in,teresting event. Vile went by train to Baltimore, and there enjoyed an ex- tensive sight-seeing excursion, visiting such places as John Hopkins University, Goucher College and other interesting points. Our next leg of the journey was made, on one of the luxurious steamboats of the Cld Bay Line, to Norfolk, Vir- ginia. The trip took all night and an excellent orchestra furnished music for dancing after our delightful dinner aboard the boat. Arriving at Norfolk, we proceeded to make a very systematic visit to all the points of interest. Our next stop was the Naval Base to which place we were conveyed by a government tug. The next thing on the schedule was a bus trip to Vililliamsburg. Cnc of the most unique things at Vllilliamsburg was our luncheon at the Willizim and Mary College. Before we returned to Norfolk to get a steamer back to Baltimore wevisited such places as Jamestown, Yorktown, and Old Point Comfort Clfort- ress Monroej Virginia. After we got to Baltimore, we proceeded to W3SlllllgiOl1 where we were given a fine sight-seeing tour of the city. After spending a day in Vilashingtton, we returned to Harrisburg by railroad, a tired but happy and well satisfied group of young people. Ninety-two u hm 'Mf W . A l cLR iy,W A xs I Q A W5 Miss Cherryblossom Our class attempted something new in the way of securing funds to procure a semi-yearly publication or yearbook. The operetta idea was not a new one by any means, but previous mid-year classes resorted to a Fair for raising money because of the lack of time for preparing an operetta. Our class had no more time to prepare such an event than did former ones, but through the efforts of Mr. Goodall and Miss Swartz, combined with the eo-operation of the cast and chorus, the operetta was an astounding success. The reason for our class producing an Operetta instead of a Fair can be found in the unusual talent along musical and theatrical lines. We had as our leading characters, students who possessed excellent ability in both singing and acting. Miss Eleanor Pedlow and Mr. NVilliam Black were experienced along those lines because of their active parts in productions given by former classes. Thus these two members of our class were of great assistance in making our Operetta a success. The chorus work was unsurpassed by any previous choruses, and the rest of the east was possessed of unusual ability. The orchestra was of great aid also in the success of this venture, The public showed their interest in the welfare of our class by its encourag- ing support. We feel sure that no one was disappointed in his expectations. From remarks we have heard, we know that our efforts were appreciated, and the class wishes to thank all those who took part in or were in any way connected with its Operetta, and express its appreciation to those patrons who so graciously and generously gave their support to it by their attendance.

You have been called to assembly on this solemn and serious occasion to Witness the last program that We the Mid-Year Seniors of '29 will ever be able to participate in for your benefit. Due to a great deal of effort and conscientious work put on it, we know that our program will be able to compete with any of the Marcus' Reviews. In fact we know that Dave Rosen as the Grant of John Harris, will be able to battle through life with all the punch, energy, vim and pep needed for success. Say can Dot and HEleanor sing? And how! When they begin to harmonize Minerva cups her ears to listen. Some day Marguerite and J anet will be doing the latest drag on Broadway and we poor mortals will be paying 32.50 and up to see them, Ach me! Such is life. But nothing can beat the six little cherubs in boys clothing. VVeren't they Hhotsy totsy?l' Wait until they grow up. I guess we should have Mr. Roth up there with them, because he has had a previous experience. Remember? Oh my yes, another dignified young gentleman who someday will be t'Professor Beachleyn rendered for us pleasing music on a four stringed instrument of some kind. Anyhow it was good! On the level though didn 't you enjoy that program? I'll say we did. Fifth periods work! I see we must still finish out the day. But as the last day of our school career is drawing to a close, we are not so enthusiastic about leaving. However, it is not our idea to become serious on our class day, so we will leave by saying we hope to see you soon again. AU Raven: al., f Ninety-four v Q- - ' A . . ' 5 l i e W A q. . W V S swirl A TRIBUTE TO JOHN HARRIS R' 'tAnd now, farewell, John Harris! The time is eome for promotion, our Commencement into Life, the great unknown that so beckons and challenges youth. Truly, we may variate the theme as our quests will differ, some of us seeking higher learning in books, others, in praetieal ways. But the world is waiting and there are goals to be attained sinee you have taught us that success is not measured by material wealth, that worthy living is not in receiving all but in giving ourselves at our best. You have given us a vision of our places in life and have prepared us to take them with a. smile. That is the reason that with grateful, yet sorrowing hearts we turn away from those doors once af- fording us sueh warm weleome. Others may sing Lest Vile Forget! How can we ever forget the time when we laughed and played and worked and sang under the Crimson and Silver? Reminiscences always to be cherished as all that remains of those ineomparable days. The grief of parting is only allevi- ated by the desire to honor, a small return for your endless gifts- This world sweeping mightily onward, VVill whiten our heads with its ways, But ever we ill greet Alma Mater, With full hearts and loud-swelling praise. Class Poem D Arise! Ye Sons and aughters of Harris High, Lift up your drooping eyes, Behold! This Harris High, Throw your hats into the sky As her banners go passing by. Three years we served under her colors bright, 'Tis now a sorry sight As we are ready to depart Into a world of unknown parts. VVe will always remember with a sigh Dear old Harris High, Vile bid our friends farewell As we enter the new world, But we always will remember Dear old Harris High. Ninety-five ?a v . Q - ' :iv E Legs! A - g iimmwd Operetta Chorus To this part. of the opere-tta east the Senior Class extends its sincerest appreeiation. VVe realize the enormous amount of time and energy was given by these people to make this operetta a sueeess. Even though the more spee- taeular part of the work Went to the prineipal, surely no one can deny that Without the eooperation of the Chorus a produetion sueh as 'tCherry Blossom would have been impossible. This Chorus was eomposed of three separate branehes, namely: The American Girls' Chorus, the Geisha Cirls' Chorus, and the American Boys' Chorus. Eaeh one of these ehoruses Was separately and diligently drilled by Mr. Goodall. GIRLS AMERICA Lucille Appleby Elinor Brinsor Eva F.

And seareely less in importance are Miss Ruth Jean Beard and John Isele, two young' American lovers in the same party with Jack. Then We have Winfield Hess and Dallas Beaehley, the villian and foster-father of Miss Cherryblossom, respectively, who helped so much in making the production a success. But seriously speaking, the Senior Class, from which all these characters except Miss Ruth Jean Beard were taken, unite in giving them the appreciation that is due them. Vile realize that, prompted only by the allegiance to their class, this group gave every effort and cooperation to Mr. Ulna Goodall and Miss Annabelle Swartz to make our operetta the glorious success that it Was. To all but two of the principals Work of this type was entirely new, making the task that much harder. llowever, as we have seen, this difficulty was over- come and the work of each member of the cast is to be commended. Members of the cast: Eleanor Pedlow, Ruth Jean Beard, William Black, John Isele, Dallas Beachley and Vllinfield Hess.

It appears that after the Rennaissanee the eustom of delivering a farewell sermon to the reeeivers of the Baehelor degree came into vogue. This sermon eontained a brief resrme ot the years just passed in study and gave a look into the future. When the eollege system grew up in Ameriea, this English eustom beeame the eustom in American colleges. In like manner it was handed down to the high sehools. To most of us the B:1ef':wl,aureate Sermon was a pleasant and instructive event. Pleasant beeause of the just pride we all felt in being a part of a group that was on the verge of Commencement. Instruetive beeause of the message that the Reverend A. S. liehman gave us. His talk should and probably will serve as an inspiration and foundation to most ol' ns in attacking the task that we are about to begin. The sermon was delivered on January 27, 1929 in the Derry Street lfnited Brethren Clirreh. This impressive oeeasion will probably be remembered by every student of the Midvear Class of 1929 as one ot' the most helpful and really worthwhile things that we were privileged to experience in our Senior year.

Q - ' A A V 'J Iill e , S The Columbia Game On Saturday, September 29, 1928 the John Harris High School football team met the Columbia High School football team for the opening game of the season. The Island field was Wet and muddy, and rain fell throughout the entire contest. Despite the fact that the Wet ball caused many fumbles, the superior John Harris team was able to amass a total of 53 points, while Columbia was held scoreless during the entire game. The entire John Harris team played very good ball, with Sturgis, Sweger, Arnold and Beck showing up especially Well. During the third quarter the second team replaced the varsity, filling their places veryefticiently. It was evident to all who saw the game that Coach Rote had taken great care that his players were carefully and efficiently trained in the fine points of the game. ln spite of the fact that the rain kept many away from the game, John Harris was in evidence with a colorful cheering section. All who attended found it well worth their While to brave the rain, and high hopes were entertained for a successful season. No parade was held at the end of the game, because of the inclement vrcather. One Hzmdred Tw enty-one at - 4.1 L e . V if l, t ' www! The Lewistown Game On October 6, 1928, the John Harris Team, followed by a large number of Harrisburg football fans, journeyed to Lewistown to play their first game on foreign grounds. The fans and the team were greeted by pleasant weather, which greatly contributed to the pleasure of the trip. During the first half of the game, neither team could score. However, in the latter period, our flying cloud, John Sturgis, reeled off two fine runs of 45 to 50 yards respectively, both of which resulted in touchdowns, and won for us the tilt 19 to 0. Our boys played their usual consistent game on the defense, with Arnold, Baxter and Rosen starring. Un the offense, Sturgis, Fasick and Beck were the big guns. Despite a dazzling aerial attack, Lewistown failed to score. Everyone who attended the game was greatly surprised at the rapid stride John Harris had taken towards smoother playing, and Harrisburgcrs felt the team well worthy of all and every bit of support and backing that could be summoned. Y The Easton Game The powerful Easton High team journeyed to Harrisburg to meet our boys in their first important intersectional game, on October 13, 1928. TVe were well prepared to give them a rousing welcome, beginning with an enthusiastic parade starting at the old Tech building and ending on the Island. After the excite- ment from the parade cooled off, we settled down to view one of the most sensational games ever staged on the Island field. During the first half, neither of the teams opened their bag of trick plays reserved for the occasion, and the result was a nip and tuck battle, with neither aggregation able to push across a tally. After a terrific drive led by the plucky Easton captain, the visiting team was able to smash through the line for their lone touchdown. Soon after this play, captain Bishop of the Easton team was injured, and was taken from the game. Our team, strengthened by the addition of Beck, began a dazzling offensive, and soon the score was tied. However, we did not stop at this, but held the Easton team until they were forced to punt. Beck returned the punt with a beautiful run, and after a few drivesfeaturing Sweger and Beck, the latter was able to score the second touchdown for the Harris outfit, making the score '12 to 6. Easton then tried an aerial attack, but it was broken up by the brilliant playing of our backs. After the game a short parade was held and everyone went home thoroughly pleased with the result of the game. One Hundred Twenty-two s if atm v g Slmmiws The Mahanoy City Game V Y - -gl W D KJ' vny vrlfv October 20, 1928 saw the team invade the coal regions for the first time in the season, to play the undefeated Mahanoy City miners. The team was backed by a large crowd of loyal supporters, who, needless to say, we1'e anxious to see the 'Mahanoy City team in action, because of the old rivalry that existed between them and Tech. At the stadium there was a large colorful crowd, and the game began amidst much shouting and cheering. Both teams played for all there was in them, and it appeared as if the results would be a scoreless tie. Sturgis, Beck, ltlasick and :Sweger played a great game for us, while the Mahanoy City team displayed a rare bit of team work in rcpelling some of our terrific drives. Howeverh the game was not destined to end without scoring, because in the midst of one ot our powerful drives we had the misfortune to have a costly fumble which lllahanoy was able to convert into a touchdown. The team returned to Harrisburg with just as many backers as it had when it loft, despite its unfortunate defeat. The Coatesville Game One of the largest crowds to follow the team for a foreign game, left for Coatesville, Saturday morning, October 27, 1928, where the Harris boys met the Coatesville High School. The band was also able to accompany the team. due to the generosity of several loyal students and John Harris supporters of the school who helped transport the players, by volunteering to use their cars for the purpose. As, the opening feature of an eventful day, the Coatesville citizens took the occasion to dedicate Scott l3'ield Stadium, with solemn and impressive services, after which a spectacular and interesting scrap was staged between the contestants. ln the first minutes of the fray, Flavius Beck, who later in the game was injured and had to be carried from the field, got over the Coatesville goal for the first score of the tilt. Both teams played hard and no further scores were affected until the last quarter, when Coatesville tied the score. The score then was, 7 all. John Harris made a final attempt to rally in the last few minutes, but weakened by the semi-conscious Beck, because of an injured head, the Coates- ville boys managed to hold the score tied. While in the dressing room, after the game, Beck became totally unconscious and although the score was tied, it was a rather costly tilt for John Harris. Inasmuch as Beck could not enter any of the other games during the season. One Hundred Twenty-thfree iv . - ' J mn . ' .'. 1 U S . www! One Humdred Twenty-four Q ,gui 5 as li is N 49 6 'C C C The Pottsville Game The Pottsville Miners invaded Harrisburg, November 3, 1928 with a large crowd of enthusiastic followers. They were met by an equally enthusiastic bunch from the John Harris High School. The weather was perfect and the game promised to be a good one, consequently everyone went over to the Island in an expectant mood. The game began after the John Harris Band played several rousing airs. Fasick, Sturgis and Sweger were not to be denied and each led his team in some long and fast runs. Fasick scored one touchdown after returning a punt sixty yards, one of the longest runs made during the entire season. The varsity steamrollered in such a fashion that coach lliarry Rote deemed it advisable to use the second team in the last half. The heavy scoring continued while the defense was invincible. The game ended with the score 56 to 0 in favor of John Harris. A short parade was staged after the game, recalling the days of Tech by the spirit displayed. The Mount Carmel Game The miners are in again. The heavy Mount Carmel outfit journeyed here, November 10, 1928, to try their luck against the Crimson and Silver. Because of the fact that Mount Carmel had always been an annual foe -of Tech, there was a great deal of interest in this game and several inspiring pep meetings had been held in the auditorium for the purpose of securing more interest in the game. However these were scarcely necessary because many students had already declared their intention of seeing the game at all costs. The usual impressive crowd turned out to witness the game. Both teams found great difficulty in advancing the ball any great distances, although costly fumbles prevented the Crimson and Silver from scoring several times. After a determined effort we were able to push ac-ross a well earned touchdown and the game ended before either team was able to score again, although Mount Carmel tried bravely to make a successful aerial attack, which was broken up by lflasick, Sturgis and Lyons.

The Steelton Game The game on November l7, H129 completely eclipsed any that had been previously played by the John llarris team. Fully 7,000 delegates from Harris- burg were at Cottage llill in Steelton to help the John Harris team by aiding them with lusty cheers. Automobile horns, pie pans, skillets, and even wash boilers were pressed into service as noise makers by the enthusiastic supporters ot' both teams. The bands of both schools also added eolor to the already brilliant spectacle. lioth teams were ll0l0l'lTllll0C,l to win. The John Harris tribe banking heavy on such stars as G-rumbine, Sturgis, lfasick, Sweger and Arnold, while the iron workers pinned-their hopes upon Furjanic, Heller, Cieo and Cordas. Although every man on the field played a fine game, no one was able to rip off any big gains. However, Heller, plucky quarterback of the Blue and Vtlhite was fortu- nate in garnering a tally and winning the game for the Steelton team. The wonderful run made by .lohn Sturgis, through the entire Steelton line was brilliantly stopped by a miraculous tackle made by Gaffney of the Steelton secondary defense. The Wihiam Penn Game The most important of all John Harris' football encounters of the season- that with Vtlilliam Penn High, on Thanksgiving Day-resulted in our being defeated by a one-sided, though not altogether terrible score of 19-0. The boys, especially Sturgis, played a wonderful game of football, holding their opponents nicely until Baxter and Arnold were injured. The injuries necessitated their removal to one of the local hospitals. With our two varsity ends out of the game, Watts, of Penn, took advantage of the situation, and got -over one or two lateral passes, which had hitherto netted Penn but small gains. With tive varsity stars on the sidelines as results of injuries, VVilliam Penn had little difficulty in going through our lines for their three touchdowns and extra point. William Penn felt they just had to win the game. With the Eastern Con- ference Title in their grasp and all the feminine pulchritude gazing upon their antics. Among the spectators there was an estimated crowd of approximately 12,000 persons, and all the colors of the rainbow, plus some more in their midst. The day was glorious, the atmosphere snappy, and everyone had the Holiday as well as football spirit. It was a great game, and fully rivaled any that Tech ever staged as far as color and determined playing was concerned. One Hundred Twenty-seven fe +2 FP? Q- 5? f dmt n D '-' --.J El . , A er Q,-5 tim WA JOHN STURGIS KHALFBACKJ John Sturgis, one of the few sophomores on the team was the outstanding star for Harris, both on the offense and the defense. His long Runs and superb placement kicking featured in nearly every game. Sturgis well earned the name of Flying Cloud which followed him through all the games. Sturgis still has two years of football and should easily become one of the best backs in the history of our school. VVO are back of you John. 'DICK TAYLOR QTACKLIQB Dick always played a good game at either tackle or guard. He was one of the most congenial fellows on the team and always got along well with the boys and teachers. Dick is a senior and has played his last game with the Harris team. Dick has our wishes for success wherever he decides to go. EARL TAYLOR QGUARDD This fellow hails from the wilds of Penbrook and seems to be gifted with fighting spirit. He is one of the lightest men on the team but this does not hinder him from playing well. He gets into every play and is a good man on the defense. Because he is a senior, Taylor will not be with us next season. J OHN LYoNs fCENTERD Johnnie Lyons the tallest boy on the squad proved capable of filling the centerposition when called upon to do so. Johnnie is a junior and consequently has another year to show the other side how it should be done. His accurate passing was a big factor in many games. One H undred Twenty-eight mv S fwfr! . Q - SJ W L.:- BIERALD FASICK fHALFBlXCKD Merald Fasiek, one of the most versitile backs on the team, has played in both the halfback and quarterback positions. As a running mate to John Sturgis, he helped to make our baekfield a smooth running machine. Merald threw most of the passes and generally put them Where they belonged. Fasick a senior, is the varsity football man in our class. , LEs'rER ARNOLD CLEFT ENDj Les, a Junior, was -one of the best ends in the conference and We could always depend on him to stop his man. A certain Sophomore representative of the fair sex is rumored to have a great deal to do with Arnold's sensational playing. Much to the disgust of William Penn, Arnold still has another year at Harris. LEsTER SLOTHOWER fEndj Q Lester was one of the few boys that were able to make the varsity squad at the first try. In the beginning of the season Les reported as a backfield man but due to the scarcity of ends he was chosen to play this position in the William Penn game. Les will not be with us next year and will be missed very much. MARLIN CHUM ffiuardj Marlin is the second -one of the Crum family to play varsity football at the John Harris High School. He bids fair to equal the fine record established by his brother Ross. This Was Crum's last year and we hope that Coach Rote will be able to find a man as good as Marlin to fill the vacancy. We hear from the teachers that Marlin is quite as Hashy in the classrooms as he is on the gridiron. We hope that he will continue his good work at Whatever college he chooses to attend. One H undred Twenty-nine mt S imma' l 1 , l 1 . F'- A sal W M Q I I WILLIAM BJACHAMER Klflullbackj Bill is one of the few sophomores to make the grade the first year. Machamer will be on the team for two more years and should develop into a first rate backfield man. His line plunging has always proved to be avaluable asset to the team in its battles. We hope that Bill keeps up the good work in the next two years. Ross SHEICSLEY fHaZfbackj Ross made the varsity team the first year he ever trie to p ay o He started the year on Albright's ironmen, but he showed too much of the d l f otball. natural born football players ability to be kept there. Sheesley is the lighest man on the squad and one of the fastest. The fKidj, so nick-named by Rote, also exeells in broken field running. The Kid is another of the four sophomore backs and should be Johnny Sturgis' running mate for the next two years. Good luck Kid. ROBERT CHIDSEY fEndj Bob was the first end in the history to have such a shock of hair so similar b k b t to Red Grange 's. Unlike Grange however, Bob did not play Quarter ac u t a ood fight at the end position Chidsev is a good drawing card as P11 UP Q A - - . far as the girls of the school are concerned. He will be here next season and we hope that he continues his good work. THEODORE NYE fGuairdj ' front line. Clarence Ted is the only sophomore to rate a place on Harris Beck nick-named Nye, Chew Tobacco Joew and it seems as though that name wiill stick to him the rest -of his career. There is only one thing Joe would rather do than play football, that is, hunting rabbits. If Joe stays in school, he should make good the next two years. Here 's wishing you luck Joe. One Hundred Thirty - . J . ,IJAVIQ lioslw C'l'.xC1iI.1cj Dave, one ol' the huslciest men on our team, was capable of opening a huge gap in the other line. Ilis prodigious strength would he an asset to any team. Rfosen has another year on the team and great things are expected of him next season. Dave also fills a. haf-ktield position very ehectively. llONAliD UAMNRON tTAeI4L1cj . Cameron played his last year at the tackle position. His consistent playing was always sure to cause the opposition lots of trouble. Because of the fact that Sweger out of the Tllanksgiving game, Don was made Captain for the occasion. Eleanor Pedlow never misses a game and we wonder if this has any- thing to do with Cameron 's good playing. Don is going to Princeton to con- tinue playing football. VVe wish him all the success in the world. Josisrn KENT fGurzrdj This handsome young' man is a. product of last year's team. Red seems to be able to play any position that he is put into. During the course of the season he played on both the line and in the backtield. He is known to his fellow players as Modest Redi' because of quiet and unassuming attitude. Kent was one of the mainstays on the Harris line and his fighting spirit was always in evidence. VVe are sorry to say that Red?' will not be with us next year. CLARK HIQUMBINE QCENTERJ This fair haired youth held down the pivot position with consistency and head work. He has another year and is expected to show us some more of his good playing' next season. Grumbine likes the game so much that he wears his football Jersey through the halls of Harris, attracting' a great deal of attention from The fair sex. One Hundred Thirty-o'ne f fm t Q xmas!

He intends to eontinue football at Temple University. Good luck Mark. EARL GlI,I!ICRG flfrrlflmclcj This was 'l'1arl's first year of varsity football. lle acquired his experience on Albright's junior varsity last, year. Gilberg was noted for his hnc bucking and execution of triek plays. This is Earl's last year of football and we hope, that if they have a football team at the aeronautic school he expects to attend, he goes just as good as he did for Harris. CHA1n,Es BAXTER QRIGH1' ENDD Bus Baxter, Arnold's running mate cfertainly did his share to make the right side of the line a tough place for the opponents backs to gain ground through. Baxter has another year at Football and we are certain he will cause our 'opponents a lot of trouble. Baxter is a plncky boy and it is eertain that he will be an asset to the team next year. CuARI,Es Bamsnsn fQ'1lfl'l'f4'7'IJ11l'L'Q t'Barb was another of our famous sophomore backs. Barbush was a very versatile man playing in both the half and quarterback positions during the course of the season. Barbush was a valuable man because of his ability to handle passes. He also played a very creditable game on the defensive. Charlie has two more years to play on the team and vue are sure that he will make good.

They easily whipped the Hlmclzy Strikers in the first game 10-7. The second game was won by the Lucky Strikers 9-7 and the final game of the series was takenxby the t'Blue Devilsn 12-11. These girls certainly play a snappy game of baseball and not enough can be said of their captain, Romaine McCord who stood win the pitcher's box and struck out the opposing team one after another notwithstanding their name. Ruth Byler certainly did her bit playing' as catcher and when she got to bat-the ball was sure to hit the piano in the far corner of the gym and send up a crashing melody that would do justice to Mr. Goodall's instructions. Louise Richards who played Hrst base, never let a ball pass her. The players as shown in the above picture are: Back row, left to right: Ruth Byler, Fredrika Swords, Helen Graeff-coach, Louise Richards and Louise Gregory.

Tennis Team Tennis is rapidly coming to the foreground at John Harris, partly due to the recent installation of several good tennis courts on the grounds. VVith the opportunities to play so convenient and numerous, the student body can take up tennis in earnest. The tennis team, in spite of a number of serious handi- caps, has had very successful seasons heretofore, and we hope that they will continue. The future Tildens can be seen nearly every day practicing, and with such an interest taken by the students a good tennis team can scarcely help being found. Because of the courtesy attending the playing of tennis it is a valuable sport to any school and individual, and we hope that it will grow in popularity and success at John Harris. The tennis team has had the benefit of the excellent coaching of Mr. Harry Sehriner. TEAM PAUL HELLER PAUL FIRESTONE WAYNE BOMBERGER RICHARD LEIB ORVILLE MILLES, Mgr.

There is some unusual talent to be found among our student body, partly due to the availibility of the Golf Course in Reservoir Park so graciously made accessible by the citizens of our city. There the students can smooth out their rough spots from their mashie shots and can obtain a liking for the sport. Golf calls forth muscular control and keenness of sight to a pronounced degree, and honesty is also brought to the surface in scoring. These developments are an asset to any school and golf competition should be encouraged. We expect to find a Bobby Jones or a VValter Hagen among our student body soon, so make the best of your opportunities, golfers. Mr. Lawrence Phipps, the most enthusiastic golfer of our faculty, has coached the golf teams in the past, and we look to him to make the golf team a regular institution in our school.

One H undrcd Tlzirty-nine . ' ,1 WA, m ay A 453 Cross Country Team On September 25, 1929, candidates for the cross country team reported to Coach Thomas. After six weeks of faithful training, the Hrst ten fellows to place in the trial were selected to run against. the Harrisburg Academy on November 7, 1928. The Academy met us on our own course and were easily defeated by our harriers. Howard Phillips, one of the greatest middle distance runners on any High School team, in the state, led the entire field by covering the distance of two and one-half miles in thirteen minutes and fifty-tive seconds. Other men to place Were: Val Simmons, C-lohn Harrisj 5 D, Phillips, tJ0hn Harrisj 5 Clausen, tAcademyj , Rupp, t.lohn, Harrisl and Krotzer, CJohn Harrisj. The last meet of the season oceured November 21, 1928 on the Harrisburg Aeademy's course. The John Harris runners were ahle to take the first five places in this meet. Howard Phillips, running' the last race of his High School career, in a sensational exhibition of endurance was able to lower the record of the course to eleven minutes and nine seconds, thus cutting two seconds off the record. The other four John Harris men to place in the meet were: Simmons, Rupp, Captain Shaver and D. Phillips. The boys and Coach Thomas certainly deserve a lot of credit for the time and energy that was necessary to produce a great team like we had. One Hundred Forty .
