Our thoughts of school life should consist of both fun and work, success and failure, lessons and games, memories and ambi- tions. Some of these elements, there- fore, have been presented herein. The elements introduced are both separate and interwoven but the reader may recognize school subjects as a unifying chord, which weaves all the illustrations into a pattern of beauty. It is hoped that this book will stimulate personal original- ity and ambitions and create a desire in future students toward a better under- standing and appreciation of the value of education. To these will come a rich- ness that will beautify their everyday living. WW W E, the Class of 1935, respectfully dedicate this, the twelfth Volume of the Chim- rock, to Vincent I. Chimente, who has always placed the highest standards before us. CONTENTS LQ?

First of all, we had to get organized and each one had to know his place on the ship. We entered the Junior division, they moved our crew to the lowest deck, seventh grade. Here we elected our leaders: President, Henry Stultzg Vice President, Lela Nelsong Secretary, Marjorie Ovelmang and Treasurer, William Gable. We supported all the drives to a greater extent than any of our other mates had in the past. Our only social function this year was a picnic at the home of one of our pilots. Our next year was probably our slowest, but we all worked hard in order to change our rank the coming year. Since our former President proved skillful we re-elected him, with Bay Bender as his assistant, Secretary, Lela Nelson, and Treasurer, Marion Stone. The next year we assumed the route as Fresh- men and many new sailors joined our crew. We chose Bay Bender, Presi- dent, Marion Stone, Vice President, Marjorie Ovelman, Secretary, and Walter Jones, Treasurer. We left the ship for a hike to Roaring Bun Hollow, under the supervision of one of our pilots. In 1933 we left the Junior division and entered the Senior. We held the route of Sophomores. We left the ship for a picnic at Mountain Lake, where everyone had a grand time. Our officers were Richard Muder, Presi- dent, Peggy Pequignot, Vice President, Lois Metzler, Secretary, and Walter Jones, Treasurer. Many of the participants in athletics came from our mem- bers during the year. The big event aboard our good ship, as We drew nearer our destiny in our Junior rank, was the Prom held by the Juniors and Seniors. They had dancing and food, and everybody enjoyed himself. lt was one of the nicest parties that we had held. Our leaders were: Presi- dent, Joe Whittaker, Vice President, Margaret Wagner, Secretary, Ray Bender, and Treasurer, Miriam Stuckey. Here we pulled into shore for a short stop and left off the present Seniors and set sail as the highest route aboard. From this point we did our own Senior duties. Probably the largest task was the sponsoring of the uChim- rock,,7 and it needed the support of the other sailors too. We had our Senior Class Play '6Dulcy',, which was a great success. Our Prom turned out to be the same. When we pulled into this port 'LCommence- mentn, it was not the end of our journey but the beginning. We received our passports for individual ships in which we must cross the Sea of Life. May those who strive, safely cross. Page Twenty-three Class Prophecy S we look back through the pages of history we note the rise and fall of such city-states as Athens and Rome. We also see history repeating itself, and we believe such will be true of the future. Who will carry on the work of the Lindberghs, Paderewskis, Pons, Rocknes and Dempseys of the future? As we gaze over our classmates and think of their future, we see the coming leaders of the various arts, professions, and sciences. Among them we see Karl Hesselbien, and his Ten Tune Twisters with Bill Hainsey, celloistg Isabelle Smith, harpist, Merill Hoover, trumpetist, Ruby Coburn, pianist, Eldon Claycomb, Miriam Stuckey, Ferdinand Hite, and John Mitchell, violinistsg and Erma Clemens, soloist. Speaking of the fine arts we will mention the achievements of Ray Bender, Zinna Barth, Robert Harpster, Jayne Yingling, Paul Moyer, and Gertrude Morrison who have attained great heights in painting and sculpturing. ln the 4'Doodle Malone Scandals, opening next week at '4Baldwin,s Theatref, the Keller brother-sister act is featured with rope-spinning by Lynn Brua. Across the street is opening night for the production NThe Last Loverf' by June Greenawalt, starring 4'Farmer Leighty and Emmy Blake. The mayor of the city, Frank Reiser, arrived with police escorts, Andrew Zeek and Francis Vlfeaver. Among the celebrities who arrived were: Lela Nelson, metro- soprano from the Sellers' Opera Company, accompanied by Vincent Mattern, candi- date for district attorney, the screen's newest Romeo, John Campbell, with his lead- ing ladies, Ruth Bowser and Betty Branneng Kenneth Sellers, latest philanthropist, and his bride, Fay Herring. They had just come from the Olympic games where the voice of Tom Cross announced the events through an amplifying system invented by Donald Mentzer and Richard Polk. Mrs. Sellers told of events in which some of our 1935 seniors participated. Albert Hileman represented the U. S. in the half mile race, Harvey Hyle was acclaimed the champion heavyweight boxer of the world, Paul Gill won the hundred-yard dash in ten seconds, Marjorie Rickel acquired the title of Babe Didrickson the Second, Kenneth Long took second place in the hammer throw with a toss of 60 yards, Beulah Yeckley placed first in the '4Cantor Flop , Vesta Henry won first place in the backstroke for women, and Helen Keasey placed first in the 10-mile swim for women, while on the tennis courts Elva Moudy Hashed about, Moudy winning for the third time from Martha Cavendar, the former Mrs. Russel Frazier. As Mrs. Sellers waited for the 500-meter relay race she saw Harold Ratowsky, the manufacturer of Sandberger Cheese, now taking the place of Limberger, and his bride Lois Metzler, who was wearing a suit designed by Benson and Benton. The Ratowskys were accompanied by Jack Lear and wife, the former Dorothy Brubaker, and Marie Baronner, the uSong-birdi' of WORP. Mar- garet Lloyd Tresise, joined the group bringing with her, her artist friend, Percy Brubaker. lt was announced that Carl Hoover, Frank Smith, Donald Ickes, John Treese, Waller Russel, and Bernard Porta as anchor man were to constitute the team for U. S. After the contests they dined at the Rakerd Hotel and were greeted by the manager, George Gunnett. They discovered that Head Chef, George Gearhart, Page Twenty-four assisted by Paul Green, and Harold Clapper prepared the food. As they waited to be served, who should come in but Irvin Lewis, society columnist for the 'Tin-Focht Reviewn and inquire the whereabouts of Marjorie Ovelman. Without warning came a screeching of brakes outside and a crash. Upon investigation they found it to be the famous racer, Robert Baird, who had been run into by Eileen Sullivan, throat specialist, who had lately returned from a trip to Europe with her companion, Margaret Wagner. As a crowd gathered, they heard a roar of a motorcycle ridden by City Patrolman Leo Hoover, crack officer of his squad. Ofhcer Hoover informed Miss Sullivan that she must appear and stand suit against the charge of Mr. Baird. As this sounded interesting they made their way to the City Hall. Having arrived a few minutes ahead of time they decided to look around. Down the hall they saw through an open door the faces of two former H. H. S. students, Marguerite Colbert, private secretary to Police Commissioner Edward Mielnik, and Marian Reigh, head of the Filing Department. Upon inquiry, they found that more of their friends had positions there. Marie Swoope, Adelaide Kephart, and Olive Mclntyre worked in the Fingerprinting Department. Bernice Neely, Edith Pope, Margretta Marble, and Dorothy Miller were stenographers in the Bureau of Investiga- tion. Warden William Clemens informed them that Geraldine Ringler and Kathleen Rentz were matrons. In the court room they find Peggy Pequignot acting as lawyer of defense for Eileen, and Walter Jones, Prosecuting Attorney. The clerk of court, Ellene White, presented the case. As the damages were slight, Miss Sullivan escaped without paying the costs. They proceeded to 'fPolka Dot Cabaretf' which had been formerly managed by Carl Hoover, but was now owned by Charles Delozier. The hostess, Marjorie Young, escorted them to their table. They waited with anticipation for the floor show. As the lights Hashed out the orchestra began to play, for the blues singer, Sylvia Shorter. Amid the applause of the spectators, the orchestra leader, Flora Mitchell, announced the next number, a revue composed of Hazel Brua, Evelyn Schilling, Doris Rooney, and Erdiene Weaver. The number finished, two comedians came to a halt in the center of the floor who were recognized as Earl Bausum and Wilbur Christopher. After this number the famous MMU quintette appeared, Virginia Mentzer, Bessie Metzgar, ,lane Miller, Martha Miller, and Doris Mountain. At the close of the floor show couples began to dance to the music of the orchestra. Freda Dodson, Marietta Helsel, Rita Cassidy, Mary Heiss, Irene Clapper, and Helen Ford were dancing with strangers. Leafy Kough was dancing with Clyde Pheasant, Elma Herring with Kenneth Perry, and Virginia Himes with John Roddy, now football coach at Temple University. They decided to leave for their hotel, because they had to catch the early plane East. In the morning they hurried to catch their plane and as they arrived they saw Bessie Brubaker, Noami Long, and Margaret Schroeder getting off, just having arrived from the East. , They greeted them and got into the plane and were made comfortable by the hostess, Anna Steinbrunner. They noticed in the paper that Joe Whittaker had been elected President of the Continental Drug Stores. just then they heard a tiny voice saying, '4Oh, Wasnit that adorableli' Lo and behold, it was Doris McKelvey. Page Twenty-five Class Will E, the Senior Class of Hollidaysburg High School, City of Hollidaysburg, County of Blair, and State of Penn- sylvania, being of sound and disposing mind and mem- ory and knowing the uncertainty of this frail and transitory life do, therefore, ordain, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any former wills by us heretofore made.

What a memorable date for about one hundred and five happy students. On that day, we, the class of '36, entered Hollidaysburg High School as seventh graders, representing Hillcrest, Gaysport, and Central Schools. Of course, we had our good time be- coming acquainted with new faces, and new surroundings, but we also experienced many unhappy and diflicult moments when we became lost or did something wrong. However, after adapting ourselves to these new surroundings, we began to enjoy life once more. After a short time, our class was per- mitted to organize, and we elected the following oilicers: President, Harry Felkerg Vice President, Bertha Rae Treese, Secretary, Lawrence Smith, Treasurer, Virginia Wade. As eighth graders and upper classmen, we could look down upon the little seventh graders and feel that we were now a part of the H-Burg High School. Our ofiicers were: President, Bertha Rae Treeseg Vice President, Lawrence Smith, Secretary, Nancy Hutchinson, Treasurer, Dixie Wood- cock. As freshmen we were subject to the unpleasant publicity which few freshmen escape. Along with our many recruits from outside districts, we were known as Hgreen freshiesf' Our oiiicers for the year were: President, George McGee, Page Twenty-eight 6 I 'N ELEVENTH GRADE GIRLS First Row: Crotzler, Grenadier, Reed, Ross, I-Iileman, M.

We emerged from the partial oblivion of our Sophomore year long enough to elect the following officers: President, George McGee, Vice President, Bertha Bae Treese, Secretary, Betty Crum, T reasurer, J ack Green. Our junior year proved to be the most successful in our school year. On October 9, 1934, the class organized once more. We elected for our oiiicers: President, Bertha Bae Treese, Vice President, Virginia Wade, Secretary, Betty Crum, Treasurer, Paul Myers. Our faculty advisors were Mr. Stoudnour and Miss Swanson. The Junior, Senior Prom, our hrst social function was the big event of the year. While we had had many good times and exciting experiences during the other years, due to lack of funds We had never been able to have a party or any such social function. It might also be well worth mentioning that the class of '36 was well represented in every activity in school, including football, track, basketball, music, art, dramatics, journalism, and debating. Although some of the old faces are gone from our class many new ones have appeared, and We all intend to work to- gether to make the remaining year of our school life the best and most successful yet-always striving for success.

Sophomore Class History AVING passed through that period of initiation, the Freshman year, we, the class of ,37 have finally reached that more or less superior pos1t1on of Sophomores. We passed fom Freshmanhood into Sophomorehood with a trail of honors lying in its wake. In our freshman year, we had many of our classmates on the junior varslty team, Charles Hayes, Earle Pressel, Kenny Dunmire, Pax Gifford Lovell Hunter, Wayland Stewart, Rodger Stewart, Donald Downing, Bruce Housum, and George Perry played an im portant part in football. Elliot Treese, Wayland Stewart, Edward Mathews, Fred King, Donald Downing and Rodger Stewart were of importance in basketball. We returned to school in September to find that many changes had been made. New faculty members greeted us pleasantly. During the first few months of our Sophomore year we had the privilege of contributing a few falthful boys who helped to form the best football team that we have had in years. Some of these boys were--Harold Lee, John Haller, Earle Pressel, Robert Benson, and Paxon Gifford In 1932-33 our Freshman Class elected Louise Clemens as President, Lovell Hunter as Vice President, John Mathews as Secretary, and Paxton Gifford as Treasurer.

The election of officers this year brought about several changes in class leadershipg Raymond Reiser as Presiclentg Richard Akers as Vice Presidentg Harold Kunsman as Secre- tary, and John Haller as Treasurer. As Sophomores our extra-curricular activities have had wide representation. Certain members of the class held such responsible positions as: Members of debating team, Senior orchestra, and Senior band. By some people we have been called sophisticated, by others mere youngstersg however, we are at an intermediate stage of a high school career. Our Sophomore year was perhaps our most carefree and happy one. Having survived our initiation period, we joined the ranks of the wise and our duties toward the fresh- man were not wholly neglected. We neither knew too much nor thought we did. With dignity, we upheld all honors bestowed upon us, and we were in every project-both curricular and extra-curricular. It is hardly necessary to mention the fact that the Sopho- more class, success was undoubtedly due to the able leader- ship of our faculty advisers, Miss Virginia Hunter and Mr. Griif Jones.

Freshman Class History T last, we had reached that much coveted height that of being elevated to the ninth grade. Of course, we felt proud, for we now knew that we were a part of the Hollidaysburg High School. On September, 1932, we entered the portals of H0111 daysburg High School to dwell in that high domain as seventh graders or in reality as Hbabiesf' As our trials and tasks of iinding our rooms were com pleted, we settled down to a quiet life. We had an organiza tion meeting, which was held one day in October, 1932 in Room 202. The following oflicers were chosen to guide us through our seventh year: President, Shirley Abelson, Vice Presz dent, Jimmy Martzg Secretary, Luther Conrad, Treasurer, Marjorie Suterg Advisers, Mr. Richard Mentzer and Miss Sarah Noss. That they were wisely chosen was exhibited through their ardent work. The next year, 1933, we again entered our castle of work, to resume our pastimes-that of our studies The important event of the eighth grade year was that of organizing. This year our ollicers were: President, Shirley Abel song Vice President, Luther Conrad, Secretary, Marjorie Page Thirty-two r 1 NINTH GRADE GIRLS First Row: Benton, Seebach, Brannen, Suter, Jones, Miss Ammon, Miss Reed, Shaw, Sal- vards, Rice, Smith, Bauer, Edwards.

We moved on to September, 1934, a date Worth remem- bering, for We entered our mansion this time as Freshmen or uFreshies. How proud We felt! This year, We had an enrollment of 250 students-an honor to our name. The personnel was composed of students from Claysburg, Duncansville, Catfish, and our immediate vicinity, l-lollidaysburg. The students reported to rooms 103, 104, 105, 5, and 4. This year, also, we organized in November. Our oflicers chosen Were: President, Fred Ratowskyg Vice Presi- dent, Shirley Abelsong Secretary, Jeanne Fries, Treasurer, William Goodfellowg Advisers, Miss Marie Ammon and Miss Margery Reed. Our most important event this year was a class party held on February 16, in the main auditorium of the High School. Many of our members this year belonged to the football and basketball squads. We are also happy to say that many of our classmates are musically inclined, some belonged to Junior and Senior Orchestras and to our High School Band. That We were truly an industrious and reliable class was shown through our many extra-curricular activities.

Eighth Grade Class History N a bright sunny September morning, ninety smiling faces appeared at Hollidaysburg High School ready to resume their climb up the steep mountain of knowledge toward the high peak of Gradua- tion. We were not strangers now, for We had passed the seventh grade mile stone, and were now starting up the rocky eighth grade lap of our journey. Daily we scrambled over large rocks and every six- Weeks we came to a high steep cliff, and many of us feared we would not be able to make it, but with the never tiring aid of our teachers We Were able to scale these fearful heights of learning. Learning that some of our band would become scattered and some lost along the Way, We thought it Wise to have an organization to guide us. In order that this might be accomplished We held an eighth grade class meeting where We elected for our leaders and oilicers the very best. They were: President, Eva Mae Treeseg Vice President, Max Hunter, Secretary, Mary Ellen McGee, Treasurer, Roger Turk. Besides climbing up this rocky ragged path, some of our more talented members gave a helping hand to a Page Thirty-four EIGHTH GRADE GIRLS First Row: Hunter, B.

We may rightfully boast of having had two representatives of our class, John O'Brien and Roger Turk in the Band, also live in the orchestra, Jane Newingham, Roger Turk, John 0,Brien, Jocelyn Walsh, and Clair Arford. Eleene Hunter was the one member of our band to be taken for a Junior High cheer leader. We were very proud to say that Caroline Capers took a very interesting and im- portant part in the Girls' League play 'LSeventeen. We had some other new experiences this year. The girls were very glad to have taken up cooking and sew- ing for the first time. Junior Business Training and Guidance were also other new interesting subjects. During this year or term rather, Miss Wilt and Miss F itts, our Advisers, helped us in many ways. As one looked at the honor roll of this year, one observed Mary Ellen McGee was in headlines in the H-Burger, as she had a very high average all yearg we were all very proud of her scholastic achievement. Our honor roll showed that we were always willing to work hard to reach that high peak of Graduation, and we will be able to hear very many voices shouting, uExcelsior.

Seventh Grade History EPTEMBER 5, 1934, there appeared at the doors one hundred and three seventh graders all ready for Work. ln a survey of this class, We found that the new members of our group had been gathered from a Wide territory. During our school life members of our class have attended thirty-seven different schools, located in five different states. Since our entrance into the high school, We strug- gled along with problems that We met from day to day. Like all preceding seventh graders We were confused by the constant marching through the halls and the chang- ing of rooms. However, We enjoyed the experience and soon settled down to the regular routine of the school Work. The work of the seventh grade seemed lighter be- cause We fully understood that We had so much work to accomplish. We found that We had to do more work outside the class hour than We had to do in other years, but we think we have developed a greater sense of re- sponsibility and a feeling of independence and self-confi- Page Thirty-six SEVENTH GRADE GIRLS First Row: Heist, Malone, Bice, Fultz, B.

There were two reporting rooms for the seventh grade, 201 and 202. During the year we had some in- teresting contests between the two rooms. Probably the one we enjoyed most was the collecting of class dues to pay for our picture in the year book. The room that lost had to treat the winning group. We tried to do our parts, and we feel that, in a small way, we contributed to the good of the school. A num- ber of our class members were represented in the Junior Orchestra. In the ticket sales and other activities we tried to do our best. As we finished our first year of work in the H. H. S. we are looking forward to many interesting and profit- able experiences. 4'Happy worki' we hope will be a good description of our activities in the remaining years of the high school career of the class of ,40. Our officers for the year were: President, Clifford Gilletteg Vice President, Ann Swensong Secretary, Marian Doughertyg T reasurer, Janet Elliotg Advisers, Miss Gearhart and Mr. Mentzer.

Girls' League HE Girls' League of the Hollidaysburg High School entered into its eighth year in September, I934. The Girls' League was organized in 1927 for the purpose of preparing the girls for the responsibili- ties of life, of developing leadership, and through the various clubs, of aid- ing them in choosing a vocation or avocation. All the girls of the school are members of the League, which is under the supervision of Miss Alverda Treese, teacher of social studies, and Miss Marie Ammon, teacher of French and Latin. Each year the League sponsors a play. This year the play 4'Seventeen,,' was directed by Miss Virginia Hunter, teacher of English. In previous years the Girls' League gave a 3200 scholarship to a deserv- ing girl of the senior class who was chosen by the members of the League. This year the Executive Council of the Girls' League voted to discontinue the scholarship and to try to originate a Student Loan Fund in Hollidaysburg, if some responsible local organization would sponsor the plan. The girls voted to make an initial contribution of 3250. The League proposed such a plan to the Kiwanis Club, but to date no definite action has been taken by that organization. The girls were given an opportunity this year to plan the programs for the monthly meetings of the League. The finance committee, a new committee introduced to the League this year, had as its duty the supervision of the girls' financial proceedings, Ruth Sellers, Miriam Stuckey, Frances Selwitz, and the treasurer of the League composed this committee. The oiiicers of the League this year were Lela Nelson, Presidentg Shirley Abelson, Vice President, Pauline King, Secretary, and Bertha Rae Treese, T reasurer.

Tasty Tid-bits of Dramatics HE Tasty Tid-bits of Dramatics, a club composed of Freshmen and Sophomore girls, was organized for the first time this year. The purpose of this re-organization of the dramatic clubs Was to give more girls the opportunity to participate in dramatic productions. Shortly after the organization of the club, its members were divided into groups of from eight to ten girls. Each group had a leader and was directly responsible to one of the advisers. Each club period was devoted to the producing of one or two short plays which had been worked and planned by the group leaders, each group being responsible for at least one club program. During the year the club as a Whole studied various phases of play producing such as coaching, costuming, stage setting, and making up of characters. Portions of club periods were devoted to reports on the life and Work of outstanding stage personages. The club participated in ticket sales during the year and sold candy at the Senior Play to contribute their share to the Girls' League. The following people served as ofiicers for the club: President, Anna Jean Harryg Vice President, Betty Newinghamg Secretary, Jeanne Banholzerg Treasurer, Pauline Kingg Chaplain, Jeanne Fries. The club advisers were Miss Reed and Miss Hunter.

Etiquette Club HE Etiquette Club, one of the largest clubs in the Girls' League, being composed of fifty-eight members, was organized this fall with the following officers taking charge: President, Shirley Abelsong V ice President, Marjorie Suterg Secretary-Treasurer, Carolyn Wagner. The club was composed of seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth grade girls. These girls were divided into groups of three or four members. The purpose of the club was as the name suggests, to teach etiquette, which includes good manners, thoughtfulness, courtesy, consideration of others, sincerity, and so forth. A day in the life of a young girl . . . what she does in the morning, noon, afternoon, evening, and night, and above all, how she conducts herself in doing these things. What fun! This is one thing that the Etiquette club, which is advised by Miss Gertrude Swanson, strove to teach its members. How to stand and dress properly was another phase of the work of the club. Conduct in public, introductions, table manners, how to accept and refuse invitations, and letter writing were other phases of etiquette that were dis- cussed. Emily Post and Everyday Manners were the reference books that were used. At each meeting, a group presented a topic for demonstration and dis- cussion. However, all of the time was not spent in study. For example, a Christmas party was held and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Folk Dancing Club HE Folk Dancing Club was organized for the first time this year. It was offered in place of the Junior Girls' Clee Club of former years. The new club was open to both Junior and Senior High School girls and the enrollment closed when the membership numbered fifty. During the first semester the members discussed the origin of folk music and how a folk song is related to a folk dance. They found that a folk dance usually started as the result of the people getting together on certain special occasions or feast days. The circle dance was one of the earliest forms. Routine steps in two, three, and four pulse rhythms were practiced and one simple entrance and exit step Worked out. The girls then Worked out a circle dance that represented Pilgrim girls at play using an old Pilgrim hymn for the musical background. That was presented as part of the Junior High School Thanksgiving Program. During the second semester the entire period was spent in practicing several standard folk dances such as The Virginia Reel, The Bleking, The Highland Schottische, The Minuet, The Polka, The Maypole Dance and the modern Waltz step. Many groans and gasps for breath as Well as a great deal of fun and laughter accompanied the learning of these dances. The members feel that it was time well spent. ' The club ofhcers for the year were Beulah Yeckley, Presidentg Naomi Sorrick, Vice Presidentg Betty Garland, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Cease acted as adviser for the club.

Those chosen to carry on the Work of the club were. Sylvia Shorter, President, Virginia Wade, V ice President, Agnes Bice, Secretary and Treasurer. There were twenty-seven girls in the club this year We met in room 206 on Thursday afternoons. ln order for the girls to be healthy and strong, We believe they should study and know the rules of health. Therefore, in our meetings each and every one of the girls was taught the general care of the body, how to help intelligently in cases of emergencies, and how to be of assistance to others. With the help of a text book a course of first aid was off ered. This year we decided to think of our bodies as castles We found that, to make the Walls and machinery of these castles strong they must be made of good material. Some of the materials We thought necessary to use Were: Plenty of good food, exercise, fresh air, rest, and cleanliness. On holidays the girls did their best to make underprivileged children happy by collecting toys and food and distributing them We hope that a large number of girls join this club next year and We can assure you that the Work of the club is really Worth While and essential in everyday life because in the health of the people lies the strength of the nation.

Junior Craft Club - HE Craft Club of the Girls' League of the Hollidaysburg High School was first organized in the year 1929 but by 1931 the enrollment had increased to such an extent that it was necessary to divide the club into two groups-the Senior Craft Club and the Junior Craft Club. For the year 1934-35, Miss Wilt acted as the adviser of the Junior Craft Club which had a membership of forty-live girls, all members of the seventh and eighth grades. The enrollment in- cluded many of last year's members. Our club periods were spent with the purpose of making attractive as Well as useful articles in the line of crocheting. Some of the projects of this yearis Work were table runners, dresser scarf s, and center pieces for tables. Not all of our time was spent in Work, however, for We took time to have a Christmas party which Was enjoyed by every mem- ber present. The work of this club was exhibited in the Annual Art exhibit which took place in May. The members of this club elected the following people to guide them through the school term: President, Catherine Rooneyg Vice President, Elizabeth Watters, Secretary, Catherine Bechtel, Treasurer, Marie Graflius.

Junior Dramatic Club HE Junior Dramatic Club for the present year had a membership of thirty-five girls of the seventh and eighth grades. As the primary purpose of the club was to learn something about dramatics, a chairman, appointed by the president, took charge of the meeting each week, and under her direction some type of dramatic Work was done. We started our work by discussing the value of dramatics as an aid in improving speech, bodily response, spiritual understanding, and social adjust- ment on the part of the average person. Several club periods were spent in studying pantomime. We became butlers, knights, queens, naughty little girls, and numerous other characters. Pictures of outstanding actors were shown, and We had an enjoyable time guessing them. The club read and discussed short plays and acted some of them. From time to time different members of the club gave interesting reports on worthwhile plays or movies that they had seen. ln our study of make-up the girls paired off and practiced putting make- up on each other. Some of the results Were interesting, but more often they were amusing. However, this provided several enjoyable meetings and We learned something about the process. Some of the group kept interesting note books. ln all of these activities we had a very pleasant time together due to the willingness of every member to co-operate in any project that was proposed. Eva Mae Treese Was our President, Sue Funk, Vice President, Nancy Lee Hamill, Secretary, Marion Dougherty, Treasurer, and Jane Barnett, Chaplain for the year. They proved to be a very capable set of officers. Page Forty-six KNITTING CLUB First Row: Calvin, Lloyd, Kyle, Cavendar, Schwab, Miss Harpster, Miss Ammon, Rooney Dunn, Brua, Mentzer.

Knitting Club MONG the new clubs of the Girls' League this year was the Knitting club, advised by Miss Marie Ammon and Miss Dorothy Harpster. The purpose of the club was to teach every member to knit and to help each girl make at least two or three useful and well-made articles. During the term, the members made multi-colored hats, sweaters, scarfs, and pocket books. Each girl furnished her own needles and yarn. The majority of the club periods were occupied with the instruction and practice of new stitches. Every member was expected to practice each new stitch through the week until she had mastered it for the next meeting. In order to raise money for the club picture in the Chimrock, the girls sold candy, making over 38 toward the required 310. Later this organization sold the highest number of tickets to the Girls, League play, HSeventeen.', Since these tickets were sold on the commission system, the club in this way earned more money. The oflicers who assumed the leadership of the Knitting club throughout the 1934-35 school term were: President, Martha Cavender, '35, Vice President, Eleanor Schwab, '36, Secretary- T reasurer, Mary Dunn, '36, Chaplain, Doris Rooney, '35.

The Library Club HE Library club was newly organized this year for the purpose of training a junior library staff. Miss Mildred Melsheimer, the libra- rian, was our adviser. The club was composed of twenty-eight mem- bers from the seventh to the twelfth grades inclusive. At the first meeting of the club, the following oflicers were chosen to serve for the year: Madelyn Johnston, President, Sara Hileman, Vice Presi- dent, Mary Finn, Secretary, Kathryn Read, T reasurerg Melda Smith, Chap- lain. ln order to acquaint the girls with the variety of work in the library field, our adviser then suggested reports to the members on public, college, and special library work. The next few meetings, including Book Week, were devoted to reviews of the new books in the library. We then became acquainted with the Dewey Decimal System of Classification-the system which is used in the High School Library. The physical make-up of books was then discussed. At another meeting the card catalog which is the index to the library was studied. A few important reference books, including dictionaries, encyclopedias, year books, atlases and gazeteers were presented. After this training in library work, we had some interesting experience in desk work during the noon hour and in our vacant periods. We also took up the preparation of the new books for the library shelves. We then selected and mounted pictures for the picture file which proved very valu- able in the illustration of our class work. Although this club has not as yet had its first birthday, we feel that the purpose of the club has been accomplished.

Needle Craft Club HE Craft Club was organized in 1929 and had grown to such and extent that it had to be divided into two groups-the Senior and Junior Craft Clubs. This year the club went under the name '6Needle Craft -for all the girls were not interested in regular craft work. The club as a Whole consisted of about fifty-five members and met in room 108. But the room was too small to accommodate this large number, and it was necessary to divide the group according to their interests. The ones who wished to crochet remained in room 108 under the guidance of Miss Pickles. Others who desired to em- broider met in room 2 with Miss Mcllroy as their adviser. Since some of the members of the club did not know how to crochet, it was necessary to give two or three weeks of instruction. Many useful articles were then made, such as, hats and scarf sets, gloves, and collars. The embroidery division made luncheon sets, doilies, pillow slips, scarfs and many other dainty pieces. The club occupied a large space in the Annual Art exhibit and much praise was given to this club for the work accomplished. The club was a great success because of the careful instruction of our advisers and of the splendid co-operation of the members. The following people were elected to guide the girls through the school year of 1934-35: President, Mary Heissg Vice President, Dorothy Treeseg Secretary, Ganelle Hollenbackg Treasurer, Irene Rakerd.

Phunology Club HE Phunology Club was a new club in our high school this year. lt was under the supervision of Miss Deen, who en- deavored to train the pupils to be leaders in the art of school, church, and home entertainment. This club was one of the largest clubs organized in our high school. During our club periods, we studied games for all occasions. We also studied about refreshments, materials, programs, decorations, invitations, music, and expenditures and encouraged party courtesy, which plays a very important part in our social life. Every member of this organization derived some benefit. Each was to qualify herself for leadership at any time and at any place. We used as our guides the following books: uParties ................................................ A magazine '4Games', ..... ....... B y Jessie Bancroft HHerself'7... ....... By Edna Geister HPhunology'7 ..... ...... B y Emily Post f uSchool Clubs .................................... By lVlcKown These the members of the club used very eagerly. This organization proved to be a complete success, and will be continued throughout the remaining years. We hope the students to come will enjoy this club and will derive as much benefit as we did this year. The following girls were chosen to guide the club through the school term of 1934-35: President, Lela Nelson, Vice President, Fay Herring, Secretary-Treasurer, Marcella Alberts, Chaplain, Helen Greinader.

Travel Club LTHOUGH our Travel Club was new this year and had a small mem- bership, we had great ambitions. During the meetings, members told of either trips they had actually made or imaginary ones. We read books on travel and members brought photos and pictures of places that We were discussing. Some of the girls had foreign correspondents, Whose letters they read. These and the illustrated notebooks made by each girl, helped make our study more vital. Our officers were: President, Paule Sellers, Vice President, Geraldine Ringlerg Secretary, Marjorie Matterng T reasnrer, Isabelle Smith. With the aid of our adviser, Miss Smiley, and our oilicers we had a successful year. Social Service Club HE purpose of the Social Service Club is to teach us to try to help those about us and to make the world a little better for our having lived. We took up the study of the lives of some famous women, like Clara Barton, Frances Willard, Florence Nightingale, etc., who have excelled in social service. Our club had fifteen members and our oiiicers Were: President, Mary Scott, Vice President, Bomayne Butler, Secretary, Anna Ruth Dunmireg Treasurer, Flora Mitchell. Our Adviser was Miss Berg. As practical social service Work, our club gave a needy family a nice donation at Christmas time. We were proud of our club and sincerely felt that We had had a success- ful year.

Vocational Club HIS yearis Vocational Club, we think, proved to be more successful than in former years. This club, under the capa- ble supervision of Miss Fitts, was entertaining as well as help- ful. We were affiliated with the State and National Home Economics Association. The activities of the year consisted of a banquet served to the Kiwanis Club. Club parties and -teas, as well as interesting programs, were held during club periods which were under the supervision of committees. During the year the club also did some welfare work. A Thanksgiving basket of food and a Christmas basket filled with toys were given to needy people of the town. This was a worth while project, and the baskets were greatly appreciated. Our second semester in club period was more enthusiastic than the first semester, as the members had become better acquainted. Miss Fitts supplied the girls with interesting folders and recipes during the year. Our club was comprised of only senior high school girls. There were twenty-two girls, who were fortunate to belong to the club. The girls chose the following officers to carry on the work of the club: President, Marie Swoopeg Vice President, Ruth Bowserg Secretary, Betty Branneng T reasurer, Adelaide Kephart. As our club proved most successful during the past year, we hope that the future Vocational Clubs will prove just as successful. Page Fifty-two W. B. A. CLUB First Row: Rentz, Fries, Miss Kemp, Miss Jones, Mountain, Brenner Seconl Row Miller Baronner, Barth, Steinbrunner, Read, Delaney. W. B. A. Club HE club for girls who would like to be actresses or think they are actresses is commonly known as the W. B. A. Club. This year the club, for convenience, was com- posed only of .lunior and Senior girls. The purpose of our club this year was to promote crea- tive work among the students, giving each girl in the club a chance to act and to Write. The first semester was spent in giving characterizations and learning about and practicing the art and use of make-up. The second semester was begun by creating the High School,s Easter Pageant. It was our honor and privilege to originate and present this Pageant. It was written, and the costumes and scenery were designed entirely by the members of the Club. The pageant was coached by Ruth Sellers and Zinna Barth, who had previous experience because of their affiliations with the dramatic class. The remaining part of the year was spent in presenting a series of one-act plays during club periods. This gave each girl a chance to coach and to act in plays. The officers of our club for this year Were Grace Fries, Presidentg Irene Clapper, V ice President 5 Gertrude Brenner, Secre- taryg and Doris Mountain, T reasurer. The Advisers were Miss Anne Jones and Miss Betty Kemp. Page Fifty-three BOYS' LEAGUE OFFICERS F t R : Martz, Ratowsky. Second Row: Kunsman, Mr. Jones Garland The Boys' League HE Boys' League was organized in 1930 to provide an op- portunity for the boys of the school to come into contact with various fields of activity of interest to boys-those activities not provided by classroom instruction. The League meets as a whole once a month and twice monthly as separate clubs which are open to selection by the boys. Among the clubs this year were: Debating, Nature Study, Hi-Y, Sportsman, Coin and Stamp, Astronomy, Science, Glee, Health and the H-Club. The general League meetings were devoted chiefly to the presen- tation of subjects that were of concern to boys who were in the process of choosing a life career. This school year the League adopted a policy of having former students who have been successful in the various fields of activity present their viewpoints concerning their ex- periences. Among the graduates who spoke were Frank Stultz '30, and Paul Vipond '30. Other speakers included Burgess R. R. Potter, Mr. John Rhodes, Boy Scout executive, and Mr. J. Lawrence Broderick, Boys' Secretary of the Altoona Y. M. C. A. A feature of the year was the presentation of a pantomime by the boys for the League and a minstrel show which was given for the general public. The officers for the year 1934-35 were: President, Harold Ratow- sky, Vice President, James Martzg Secretary, Harold Kunsmang Treas- urer, William Garland, and Adviser, Mr. Jones.

The Astronomy Club VERYONE should know that there is a vast difference between astronomy and astrology. Astronomy is the study of the movements of stars, planets, meteors, and comets. Astrology is the art of deriving various meanings from the study- ing of the stars, as the age, habits, and character of human beings. The Astronomy Club, under the guidance of Mr. Kearney, endeavored to teach the members something, in general, of the solar system and as much of the remainder of the universe as possible. In striving to carry out this plan, a committee of three was appointed weekly to discuss one astronomical subject. At the first meeting, the election of officers was held by Mr. Kearney. Those chosen were: ,lack Green, President, Hugh Selwitz, Vice President, and Raymond Reiser, Secretary. In the following few meetings, the time was devoted to the general dis- cussion of astronomy. However, the first of February ushered in a prepared set of programs. One meeting, Mars and Earth were compared, the next Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune were discussed, and on successive weeks the moon, constellations, meteors, comets, and the like entered the discussions. This year, each and every meeting was devoted to phases of astronomy. lt was believed that by so doing the club mem- bers would derive some benefit and knowledge of that subject.

At the first meeting the following officers were elected for the first semester: President, Fred Ratowskyg Vice President, Walter Wright, Secre- tary, Roger Turk, T reasnrer, Wayne Tresiseg Chaplain, Joseph Delozier. For the second semester We had: President, Roger Turk, Vice Presi- dent, Fred Ratowskyg Secretary, James Martzg Treasurer, Wayne Tresiseg Chaplain, Joseph Delozier. This was the first year for a coin and stamp club. The officers car- ried out very well their responsibility of planning a course of study and of arranging for programs that would be of interest to the club. During the year the boys learned how to arrange stamps and coins properly for display. From talks and readings they learned of the rare and valuable stamps and coins, and of the oddities among the modern stamps, which few ordinary people notice. During the year there were few countries which were not discussed in connection with their stamps and coins. s For Music Week an exhibition of stamps and coins that greatly in- terested all who were acquainted with stamps and old coins and which in- terested those, too, who did not have a knowledge of stamps and coins be- cause of the various color combinations and unique arrangements, was ar- ranged. By the end of the year strides had been taken towards their goal, which was to give all the boys who had only small collections a start in the interest- ing game of collecting stamps and coins.

The club, named HThe Debating Clubf, was placed under the supervision of Mr. McCarthy. lt was formed for the purpose of giving to the boys of our school some highlights on debating a national question. Our first program consisted of a speaker, Mr. R. Potter, who gave an inspiring address on debating which was thoroughly enjoyed by all the members. Later we had debates on the present question and that of last year. A very interesting spectacle that took place was a court trial in which approximately every member of the club participated. This club was composed chiefly of younger boys from the lower grades. Many people would have been surprised to see and to hear such boys con- duct a debate of that type in which the High School team participates. All programs were skilfully organized and conducted by these boys, and lVlr. McCarthy, the adviser, acted as chairman of the debates. The Debating Club can be classified among the medium size clubs. The club numbered forty-two members, all of whom were interested in the club's activities. The members elected their officers as follows: Tom Cross, Presi- dentg Russel Irwin, Vice Presidentg Frank Reiser, Secretaryg Richard Burt- nett, Treasurer, and John Crum, Chaplain. Since this is the first year for our club, the work and organization of programs was new, yet we feel it was successful. We hope the Debating Club which will follow will prove to be the outstanding club we have made it.

Boys' Glee Club OR many years the glee clubs of our high school have been outstand- ing organizations. The Boys' Glee Club Was organized this year under the direction of their conductor, Mr. Thompson. This group ac- complished much and had a very successful season. Its purpose was to pro- mote music in all ways and to advance the member's knowledge of it. Previous activities in the organization consisted mainly in singing. ln connection with this activity our group studied instruments, their construc- tion and place in an orchestra. Lives of great musicians and composers were studied, and also some of their noted works. This was a new feature for the members and proved to be of educational value to all. The project of this year's club was to produce the annual operetta, which was held early in the spring. HDon Alonso's Treasure was the title, and was the first public appearance of the club. All the members of the group took some part in it. This year climaxed the enrollment of previous Glee Clubs. There were fifty boys, Who took an active part in the club. This organization is open to all students from the Junior and Senior High schools. This year's members and leaders hope that more boys will come into this club in the future. There is a fine opportunity for boys to develop their talent and broaden their musical knowledge by belonging to this group. Our officers Were: President, Merrill Hooverg Vice President, Frank Smithg Secretary, Joe Whittakerg Treasurer, Nelson Steeleg Adviser, Mr. Thompson.

Formerly the winning of a letter in any forensic activity did not entitle one to membership in the club. However, at present any one who has earned a letter in any school activity is eligible for membership. In the past the HH Club presented the trophy case in the hall to the school, promoted intra-mural and inter-scholastic sports, brought about the awarding of certificates with letters, and looked up a complete set of the athletic records made by our high school athletes since we entered into athletic competition in 1911. This year the club spent much time in becoming familiar with rules, regulations, and methods of playing many of our more familiar sports, such as, football, basketball, baseball, and track. The club also was very instrumental in bringing about the awarding of jackets to our foot- ball team. The purpose of the club is to increase the interest of the student body in athletics, further athletic ability, bring more of the students into athletic and forensic competition, create higher standards of sports- manship and to make our school a leader in both athletic and forensic activities. Under the able leadership of Coach Chimente, we had a very interesting and successful year. All winners of a varsity HH will be greatly benefitted by spending a year in the MIT' Club and will find it interesting, entertaining, and beneficial.

The purposes of the Health Club were to help the members to appreciate properly the importance of good health and physical fitness, to aid them in establishing appropriate health attitudes and habits, to furnish opportunities for practicing healthful activities, to afford practice in rendering first aid, and to show the importance of community health, sanitation, and hygiene. The club held its meetings in room 202 with Mr. Mentzer as the adviser. At different meetings We gained a general knowledge of the simple forms of first aid, and members of the club demonstrated how to care for the more common accidents, such as burns, scalds, and the like. They showed by the use of pictures the dangers of such accidents if not properly cared for. We collected newspaper accounts of accidents and their causes. These were dis- cussed and suggestions were made as to what might have been done to avoid such accidents. In our study of physical fitness, We discussed our favorite athletic stars, and from this we Went to a general study of the physical make-up of the body. Personal hygiene and the dangers of neglecting the care of the body properly made a profitable project. A Another interesting project was the study of the lives of men who have made notable contributions in the field of health-Pasteur, Reed, Flenner, and others. y Page Sixty HI-Y CLUB First Row: Duncan, Corbin, Hoffman, Brua, Barefoot, Jones, Mr, Stoudnour Hoover Sellers, Hicks, Clapper.

With this spirit in mind, the club members endeavored to extend a helping and active influence in every sphere of school activity. Not unaware of its essentially religious nature, the club strove in every feasible way to make the religion of the school very real and very genuine, and to uphold the Christian life as the ideal in conduct, thought, and temperament of every student. To those who were so inclined, it offered unlimited opportunity for moral courage and personal growth. This year the club greatly enlarged its program through the splen- did guidance of Mr. Stoudnour, the adviser of the club, and through the counsel of Mr. Pitt, the Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., as well as through several talks given by prominent men of this community. The following oflicers were elected: Walter Jones, President, Edward Hicks, Vice President, Paul Moyer, Secretary, Leo Hoover, T reasurerg and Bernard Porte, Chaplain.

Nature Study Club Study N azure, N ot Booksy' Agassiz AVE you ever followed a trout stream casting and recasting with the hope that you may get a strike? Did you ever watch a flock of chimney swifts swoop down into their homes? Have you ever observed ants at work or bees visiting flowers to get pollen and nectar and at the same time causing pollination to take place? If not you have missed the great significance of the advice given by Agassiz. Nature is continually teaching us lessons. The co-operation of individuals as taught by ants and bees cannot be surpassed. The sacri- lice made by individual termites for the good of the groups is Without a question one of the greatest lessons one can find of loyalty. The Nature Study Club in the regular meetings attempted to make a study of the various phases of the world of living things in order that the lessons taught might be applied to each member's own life so that he may be a better citizen. As a special project the club had a display at the School Work Exhibit. The display showed a variety of the things one may find, in nature. Among these were fossils, tropical fish, specimens of trees, and bird houses. The officers were: President, Luther Conrad, Vice President, Rus- sel Carrierg Secretary-Treasurer, George Wolfe, and Adviser, Mr. Jones.

Science Club HILE science is rapidly transforming the world about us, the aim of the Phy-Chem Club is to develop a scientific temper which will enable the boys to do the kind of analytical and interpretive thinking which is constantly demanded. To the young boy, intensely interested in his immediate environment, with all it offers for a joyful, active, and creative life, Phy-Chem provides an interesting and absorbing occupation. The club programs were made up of practical problems, the solutions of which becomes a constructive influence in promoting the formation of socially desirable habits of scientific procedure. The applications of physical and chemical principles which We see in our daily lives were stressed and demonstrated in the club programs, rather than the subtleties of theory and research. Our experience shows that boys derived great satisfaction from detecting about them instinctively and habitually applications to a science Which they have encountered from experience or study. Several motion pic- tures of great industries carrying on similar applications on a larger scale were shown throughout the year. Papers upon the lives and discoveries of our great scientists were prepared by members of the club and presented at the meetings. We feel certain that every boy in our high school would be interested in the Work of the Phy-Chem club, and We would advise the boys interested in the various fields of science to enroll as a member of this club at least one term of his high school period. Our officers Were: President, Paul Green, Secretary-Treasurer, Jack Vogel, Chaplain, John Campbell, Faculty Sponsor, Mr. J. Harry Henshaw. Page Sixty-three SPORTSMAN'S CLUB First Row: Cuff, L.

Sportsman' s Club HE Sportsman's Club was formed in September of last year under the supervision of Mr. Stoudnour. lts enrollment for the year consisted of about thirty-five members. The club last year had as its motto: uAlways a Sportsman and each member of this year endeavored to live up to that standard. This year Mr. Diehl was adviser, and our club was one of the largest in the school with its fifty-five members. We, too, adopted the motto: uAlways a Sportsman and all strove to carry out the purpose of this banner. At our first meeting we elected the following oflicers: President, William McKillip, Vice President, Lovell Hunterg Secretary, Richard Akers, T reasarer, Charles Ross, Chaplain, Eugene Meghan. The pro- gram committee, appointed at this meeting, was Harold Kunsman, Wood- row Newnin, and Paul Harris. This committee, along with Mr. Diehl, prepared some very interesting programs for the club. One of the high- lights of the year was the talk by Rev. Capers on the subject, '4Sports- manshipf' Several members of the club also entertained us with fabulous accounts of hunting and fishing experiences. Although this organization is practically new and the work quite different from any we have encountered, we feel sure that every member benefited greatly by his experiences in this yearls Sportsmanls Club.

Page Sixty-seven QUILL AND SCROLL k Sullivan, Lloyd, Miss Harpster, Pequignot, Metzler, McKelvey, Ovclman Quill and Scroll HERE were eight members in the Pulitzer chapter of the Quill and Scroll this year. The officers of the organization Were: President, Peggy Pequignot, 335g Vice President, Doris Ann McKelvey, '35g Secretary-Treasurer, Marjorie Ovelman, '35, Each member had a position on the staff of the school paper. ln the beginning the chapter planned to have a social function several times during the year. In December, all went to HThe Town Housen for din- ner and then attended the movie. Each year there is a press convention, held in a different place. This year the convention was held in the Altoona Senior High School. Different phases were discussed in special groups during the day. Dinner was served at the Penn-Alto and a Tea Dance given at the Altoona High School after the meeting. The girls had a surprise supper in February for the adviser, Miss Dorothy Harpster. It was her birthday and the society presented her with a book as a remembrance. To successfully pay the debts, the members held a bridge tea in March, in high school. The Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high school journalists composed of over one thousand chapters. They are located in every state in the Union. Fifteen thousand young journalists from schools, which are outstanding in the quality of their publication Work, Wear the badge of the society. The purpose of Quill and Scroll is to install in students the ideal of scholarshipg to advance the standards of the profession of journalism by de- veloping better journalists and by inculcating a higher code of ethicsg to promote exact, clear and forceful Writing.

Schroeder Miller Senior Orchestra x HEN We speak of the music department of the High School, We have in mind a variety of musical activities functioning separately, yet in unison and harmony. Probably the most important and surely the most popular unit of the organizations is the Senior Orchestra, which greets the students every Monday and Tuesday at chapel. This group contributes much to the success of the programs of both school and town. This year the Senior Orchestra displayed some very fine Work, and made rapid progress in the mastery of music, this was due mainly to the great interest and co-operation shown by all the members of the orchestra, as well as the efforts of Mr. C. D. Thompson, the director. The orchestra played for all the chapel programs during the year and rendered several special numbers. It presented the music for all the dramatic productions during the year, and played the accompani- ment for the operetta. Many times during the year, it played for differ- ent entertainments or functions in the town. The orchestra took part in the annual Music Week program, which was given in May of this year. The orchestra steadily made progress over preceding years, and made great strides toward better things in music. Mr. Thompson secured a greater variety of instruments, and the members improved by playing a higher grade of music. The members were co-operative, and not only learned to play their particular instruments, but learned to appreciate the works of the many master artists of music. The members who left the orchestra this year wish success to the future orchestra of the High School. Page Sixty-nine JUNIOR ORCHESTRA First Row: Walls, J. Benton, Bice, J.

Thompson. lt was composed of approxi- mately forty members. Many boys and girls, who did not have the opportunity of taking private lessons, were able to join this orchestra and receive very help- ful instruction. A large majority of the members were promoted from the instrumental classes in which they were given lessons. At first, music of an easy nature was Worked out by the members, but as the school term lengthened and the members became more fami- liar with the elements of music, selections of a more difficult nature Were played. ln this organization, students were taught how different instru- ments Ht together in an orchestra, and how to co-operate and play together. The aim of the entire group was to Work toward the annual concert given during music week. Un passing the door of the auditorium the fourth period on any school day, one was able to hear sweet strains of melody issuing from the instruments of this amateur group. This group of young musicians had quite a lot of fun in this inter- esting activity by having very enjoyable music to play. A junior orchestra is very necessary to a High School. As We all know, it is necessary for one to start at the bottom in order to attain any- thing worth-while in life, therefore, a young musician must do the same.

High School Band HE Hollidaysburg High School Band this year was con- sidered better than on any previous year. It was composed of approximately fifty-five members, playing a large variety of instruments. The band rehearsed two and three times a week under the direction of Prof. Cyrus D. Thompson. The organization attended every football game of the season, including the Hollidaysburg-Altoona Alumni game, which was played at Altoona. At the games the band performed special drills under the direction of the drum major, Nelson Steele. The out- standing features were the forming of letters, which represented the town of the opponents. Very line work was displayed throughout the entire year as a result of persistent work on the part of each member. The band also played for the upepn meetings and most of the Boys' League meetings. The students of the school, and the people of the town as well, realized more than ever the need of a band and appreciated the efforts put forth by the organization during the year. Anyone who has had the experience of playing in his own high school band can truthfully say that he enjoyed it very much, and that he regretted to leave the organization when it was neces- sary for him to do so. A boy or girl should appreciate the fact that the school has a band, and he or she should certainly take ad- vantage of this great opportunity of joining the organization for his own benefit, as well as for the school's benefit.

Senior Girls' Glee Club HE Girls' Glee Club was organized seven years ago by the director, Mr. Cyrus D. Thompson. During these seven years the club has been steadily increasing in membership, the club had a marked increase of members this year, it reached a total of approxi- mately forty-live members. The club organized in September and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Lela Nelsong and Secretary, Miriam Stuckey. Both were members of the senior class. Lela was a member of the Glee Club for four years, and Miriam was pianist in the Glee Club for three years. The attendance committee of the club consisted of the following girls: Lela Nelson, Miriam Stuckey, Ruth Sellers, Gertrude Morrison, Bertha Rae Treese, Margaret Lloyd, and Beatrice Bossler. The duty of the club Was to urge the members to attend rehearsals regularly. This club was very informal and governed by all. A girl was eligible as long as she obeyed the eligibility rules. The first part of the school term Was spent in singing three and four- part music. This Work included the Works of many noted composers. Previous to the Christmas holidays the Glee Club gave a program of Christmas Carols at the Courthouse on December 17, 1934. The club also rendered several selections in the Girls' League meeting on December 13, 19344. The club members devoted much time to the production of the annual operetta, which was the combined effort of the Girls' Glee Club, the Boys' Glee Club, and the Senior Orchestra. With the co-operation of the members and efforts of the director, the club was a very great success. Page Seventy-two OPERETTA CAST Seated: Martz. McCloskey. First Row: Hesselbein, C.

Don Alonso's Treasure HE operetta, the annual production of the music department of the High School, under the direction of Professor Cyrus D. Thompson, was a very great success, in production as well as in finance. This year, a Spanish operetta, entitled uDon Alonso's Treasuref' was given. The stage scenery, painted by Mr. Samuel Calvin, gave a very attrac- tive and effective background for the operetta. The costumes Worn were also very beautiful and colorful. These were made possible, due to the co-operation of Miss Grace Fitts, faculty member, and the aid of several of her pupils. The dramatical part Was coached by Miss Anne Jones, and Virginia Wade, a student, instructed in the dancing. The business and advertising were very well managed by Mr. Walter A. Kearney, a faculty member. The stage managers were Frank Smith, Andrew Zeek, Elliott Treese, and William Irvine. The chorus was composed of the girls, and boys' combined Glee clubs. Miriam Stuckey was the pianist, and the High School orchestra played the accompaniment. As in previous years, the proceeds of the operetta will be used in secur- ing new music and instruments for the music department. The cast of characters was: Don Diego Anselmo de Gonzalez, a Spanish nobleman, Paul Myers, Suzanna, his Wife, Edna Williams, Dolores, their elder daughter, Christine Keller, Lolita, their younger daughter, Catharine Keller, Manuel, a man-of-all-work, Chester McCloskey, Paula, a dull-witted servant, Frances Selwitz, Ajax Wollop, an American sausage king, Clyde Williams, Mrs. Wollop, his Wife, Ruth Sellers, Elaine, their daughter, in love with Billy, Lela Nelson, Slim Malone, a sailor, Karl Hesselbein, Shorty Simmons, his companion, James Martz, Billy McNoodle, a stowaway hero, Merrill Hoover. Page Seventy-three SENIOR PLAY CAST Left to Right Peggy Pequignot, Robert Baird, Zinna Barth, Paule Sellers, Leo Hoover, Frank Relser Robert Harpster, Lynn Brua, Ray Bender, Edward Mielnik, Harvey Hyle, Jr. Senior Play HE final project of the Senior Class was a three-act comedy entitled uDulcy.', Peggy Pequignot portrayed Dulcy, who Was a young flippant bride Whose other name Was Smith. ln her de- termination to be helpful to her husband, Which part Was clearly enacted by Bay Bender, she planned a week-end party at her home. They were an ill-sorted group, such as only Peggy could summon about her. Their brief associations became an unbroken series of hilarious tragedies. Among the ill-sorted group We expected to find Frank Reiser, and sure enough there he Was, depicting the part of a lunatic. To add to the humor we had an escaped convict playing the part of the butler, Robert Baird characterized this part very cleverly. There Was also the Forbes family and Mr. Forbes, business associate. These parts were presented by Lynn Brua as Mr. Forbes, Zinna Barth as Mrs. Forbes, and Paule Sellers as their daughter, who had a terrible time evading the advance- ments of Sterret, the business associate, who Was none other than Leo Hoover. Knowing Dulcy we might have expected a versatile group, so she invited the '4Scenario7, Writer, Robert Harpster, who bored the group from beginning to the end, and he was especially boresome to Dulcyis brother Willie, Harvey Hyle, Jr., who entertained the group with his sarcasm about the company. To climax the party Mr. Patterson, Ed- ward Mielnik, arrived and informed the group, much to the disillusion- ment of Dulcy, that Beiser was not a millionaire, but only a mental case. Page Seventy-four Seventeen 66 EVENTEEN by Booth Tarkington was the name of the annual play given by the Girls' League on December 6 and 7. The play was based on the life and the hardship of a boy who had just reached the age of seventeen. His family still insisted upon treating him as a child. The unlucky boy was characterized by Albert Hileman, '35. His father, Who called him Willie, was portrayed by Lynn Brua, IH, '35. His mother, Margaret Wagner, '35, tried to sympathize with him, but some- times failed to understand. The most intolerable of the family was his little sister, Jane, played by Caroline Capers, '39, who insisted upon appearing at the most inopportune moments. May Parcher, one of the most popular girls of the town, played by Camilla Gillette, '36, returned from a visit, bringing with her Lola Pratt, a baby-talking young girl, no other than Lela Nelson, '35. Willie declared that he hates Women, but suddenly changed his mind when he met Lola. In order to have a better chance than Joe Bullit, Frank Beiser, '35, or Johnnie Watson, Robert Harpster, '35, he stole his father's evening clothes and practiced barking like Flopit. Much to his misfortune, Jane learned of this and related it to her mother. Thinking that she was doing what was best, Mrs. Baxter sent the suit to the tailor's to be made larger, just as Mr. Parcher, Tom Cross, '35, who hates baby talk, announced a farewell party. Willie had to have a dress suit as he could not go to the party without one, since he had been wearing one every evening. His father refused to buy him one and he could not borrow one. Genesis, the colored servant, portrayed by Edward Hicks, '36, was called in order to receive his pay, attired in a full dress suit. Willie eavesdropped and found that one could get them in return for old clothes, at one-eyed Belguesis. That evening Willie Went out with almost all of his clothes and Was spied by Jane. She told his parents, who inferred that he had eloped. The day of the party Willie could not be found. Jane hung around Genesis and finally learned that Willie Was counting shingles in order to earn money enough to buy a dress suit. Jane told her father, Who sent Genesis to look for him. Willie was forced to bring back the clothes, and at the last minute was given his father's dress suit, which the tailor had forgotten to fix. He arrived late at the party, to find that George Crooper, Johnnie's cousin, characterized by Merrill Hoover, '35, had monopolized Lola. Wallie Banks, Emory Bagshaw, '36, was also out of luck. Willie and Wallie were forced to entertain Ethel Boke, played by Virginia Wade, '36, and Mary Brooks, Gladys Jones, '36. George escorted Lola to the train and poor Willie decided to go to college next year. Under the direction of Miss Virginia Hunter, assisted by Marietta Helsel and Paule Sellers, this first play of the year Was quite successful and netted a profit for the Girls' League treasury. The stage managers were Walter Jones, Robert Baird, and Fay Sellers.

Second Row: Frank Reiser, Marietta Helsel, Ly Brua, Margaret oudnour. yd, Mr. St The Debating Team HE debating team last year, coached by Mr. Stoudnour and Miss Reed, was the most successful team in the history of the school. Practice debates were held with Everett, State College, and Huntingdon. The county debates were held with Tyrone, Claysburg, and Williamsburg. As a result of the 1934 campaign, Hollidaysburg won the Forensic League contest and represented Blair County in the sectional contest at Juniata College. ln the first round, they defeated Bellefonte, but in the semi-finals they lost to Selinsgrove. This year we had but one of the varsity with us, Harold Kunsman of the class of '37. The debating team this year organized February 4, and the follow- ing oiiicers were elected: President, Peggy Pequignotg Vice President, Harold Kunsmang Secretary, Marietta Helselg Treasurer, Camilla Gillette. The question for debate was: 44Resolved, that the federal govern- ment should adopt a policy of equalizing educational opportunities throughout the nation by means of annual grants to the several states for public elementary and secondary education. Due to the fact that all the contestants were of so unusual ability, numerous tryouts were held in order to select a team. The following practice debates were held: State College High School, March 14 and 15, and Huntingdon, March 18 and 19. The county debates began with Tyrone, March 21. The following week, the 28th, a debate was scheduled with Claysburg. The county debates closed with Williamsburg, April 2. We are looking forward to a successful year in 1936.

From the turnout the teams were chosen by Coach Vincent Chimente and Assistant Richard Mentzer. All home games were played at night under the lights at Dysart Park. This was inaugurated last year with the installation of the power- ful flood lights. This feature proved to be a great attraction to many fans and helped our players to finish the year successfully. The outstanding feature was the excellent blocking and interfer- ence given to the man carrying the ball. This plus a good fighting spirit and unswerving loyalty on the part of all members, made up a splendid one-unit team. During the season the team Won ten games and lost one. The last game, played at Huntingdon, was the only defeat. One of the most colorful of all the games was the contest with Tyrone on Armistice Day. No scoring took place until Tyrone made a touchdown which was followed by a touchdown and an extra point by Hollidaysburg. We also outplayed them, having twelve first downs to Tyrone's six. It was our first victory over Tyrone on their field since athletic relations were started. This enviable record showed the work and worth of both the team and coaches. The team which consisted of seven of last yearis regular players and reserves co-operated to the fullest extent with the coaches and the loss of one game in no way dampened their fine display of school spirit. Page Seventy-eight Summary of 1934 Football N 1934, Hollidaysburg continued a feature which was inaugurated the preceding year-night football. This was made possible by the installation of Hood lights last year. Hollidaysburg played its initial game on September 14-, when they took over Claysburg to the score of 4-1-0. The weather handicapped both teams as the field was a basin of mud, a fact which made both ground and aerial attacks difficult. On the following Friday night, September 21, the Golden Tigers fought their first conference battle, playing against Franklin Borough. The Burg again came out on the top of the score 26-6. There was fine evidence of blocking displayed in this game. Hollidaysburg met its old rival Williamsburg, under the lights on September 28. The first half ended 6-0. Our rivals, fresh from a fine game with Altoona, fought furiously, but the game ended in our favor, 24+-0. This was our first clear night game and our second conference victory. The Tigers' fourth straight win came on October 5, when they played another of their old rivals-Mount Union. The usual good teamwork was shown and when the final whistle blew, the score favored Hollidaysburg, 39-0. ln this game, many critics claim our boys displayed the finest blocking, interference, and exhibitions of ball carrying ever seen in scholastic ranks. Hollidaysburg journeyed to Philipsburg on October 12, in the former's first day game of the season. There on the Spanglermenis own field, our eleven showed their ability by hanging up a 12-0 score and returning home with one more victory-it was a very rough game. An overconfident Hollidaysburg grid machine met the strong Bellwood team on October 19, under the lights at Dysart Park. Bellwood threatened but didn't score in the first half. ln the second half we scored twice with our opponent scoring but once, leaving a score of 13-7. Our boys played ragged in spots. Scoring in the first three periods of the game, H-Burg chalked up a 27-0 score against Cresson. Lee's sprinting and Hilemanis blocking were outstanding. Holli- daysburg piled up 16 first downs to 3 for the Visitors. A fighting Roaring Spring team surprised the haughty Golden Tigers on Novem- ber 2, at Dysart Park by holding them to a 0-0 tie in the first half. The regular team then stepped in and won the game. Mielnik made a fine showing with his running. The second stringers saw action in the first half. On Monday, November 12, our team took a second journey, this time to Tyrone. Here they fought one of their hardest fights of the year. During the first three quarters, the ball moved up and down the field with no results. H-Burg fumbled too much at opportune moments. Then in the last quarter, Tyrone scored. This was soon followed by a touchdown and an extra point by the Tigers. The game ended 7-6, our favor. This day also saw the dedication of Tyr0ne,s new athletic field. The lights shone on our team for the last time of the season on Friday night, November 16. Our opponent was Yeagertown, a light but aggressive team visiting our field for the first time. This was our tenth straight victory-the game ending 59-0. The varsity played only ten minutes of this game. For the last game of the season, our team played Huntingdon on the latter's field in the Thanksgiving Day game. Our team showed their usual strength but were defeated 24-6. The much heavier Bearcat team found the muddy field to their advantage.

Second Row: Corbin, Jones, Conrad, Frazier, Lusardi, Stroup, Stewart Ratowsky Keller, Coach Mentzer. Basketball MON G the candidates for the team there were very few who had had the advantages of learning the fundamentals of the game before entering high school. This fact coupled with the lack of facilities for training greatly handicapped the squad. The coaches had to teach each boy fundamentals that the average boy in most dis- tricts know from having played on junior high and grade school teams. Despite the handicaps, Coaches Chimente and Mentzer produced a fairly good working combination of players. Team Work stood out excellently in most of the games, but due to inexperience the team often Herackedn at the crucial moment in games. The spirit of the boys in practice and in games was of the highest type and their willingness to Work should prepare them for a winning team for next year, as only Ratowsky is lost from the squad. The work of Wright, Brenner, and Condron, all Freshmen, gives promise of a lively battle for varsity positions next year. These three have been the most promising material for the past few years. With the return of Garland, Haller, Soyster, Green, Pressel, and Gifford in addi- tion to the above-named, Hollidaysburg seems destined to go far in Mountain High League basketball next year. Page Eighty-two Summary of 1935 Basketball HE opening game found a very green and inexperienced High team pitted against an Alumni team composed chiefly of the champion 1931 team members. The Alumni managed to eke out a 17-14 victory in the closing minutes of play. January 8, Ebensburg invaded the court of the Golden Tigers and was able to leave with a 28-17 victory. This was a well played and hard fought game. January 11, the local team traveled to Mount Union and was defeated by the destined champs by a 36-19 score. The Chimente-coached boys played the champs on even terms until the middle of the last quarter, but could not stand the pace to carry them on to victory. January 15, Lewistown traveled to Hollidaysburg and once again the Golden Tigers failed to break into the win column. Score 36-18. .lanuary 18, Hollidaysburg traveled to Philipsburg. Once again victory eluded them in the closing minutes of play. Philipsburg spurted with two minutes to go and finished on the long end of a 26-20 score. The Huntingdon Bearcats were the Tigers' next opponents. Quite a bit of satis- faction was achieved by defeating Huntingdon on their own court. Score 23-21. January 25, the Hollidaysburg team defeated its ancient rival, Tyrone High by a 26-16 score at Hollidaysburg. February 1, Mount Union, later to be crowned Mountain High League Champion, came to Hollidaysburg and won 30-24. This game was perhaps the best staged by the locals all season. February 5, Lewistown defeated Chimente's team at Lewistown. Score 21-16. February 8, Philipsburg invaded Hollidaysburg and once again the Golden Tigers played good ball until the closing minutes when Philipsburg forged far out in front by a 35-27 score. Hollidaysburg once again defeated Huntingdon February 15, at Hollidaysburg. Score 20-15. The local team traveled to Tyrone to close the Mountain High League season. The Tigers were able to win by a 22-16 score. By virtue of the victory Hollidaysburg finished the league standing. A return match was played at Ebensburg. This game found the Ebensburg team tossing them in from all corners of the court. The Edwards'-coached team won by a 45-31 score. The local team after accepting an invitation to play in the Roaring Spring Tournament arranged two games with the Springis team and Won both. Scores 33-8, 24-16. ln the tournament play the Golden Tigers won by a forfeit from Lilly, but were eliminated by Black Lick in a rough game. Score 32-28. ln a consolation game, Hollidaysburg defeated Bellwood by a 24-14 score. Page Eighty-three HAROLD RATOVVSKY WILLIAM GARLAND Honored By Mountain High League ILLIAM Garland and Harold Ratowsky, members of the varsity basketball team, were voted positions on the All-Mountain League Team for l935 in an election held by the schools of the Mountain High League. Garland came closer to being unanimously elected than any other player. Four schools placed him iirst as forward while one school placed him second as a center, giving him eight points out of ten. Ratowsky received six votes as a guard. Two schools placed him first and two placed him second, giv- ing him six points out of a possible ten. Page Eighty-four Track HE 1934 track team was a little late get- ting started in their activities but When the weather cleared up, the team worked hard to get into shape for competition. The team was under the leadership of Coach Kennedy. The first meet of the year was with the Alumni at Dysart Park. This was a hard-fought contest, but it was a victory for our team. The second meet Was with the State College High School Team. This group also proved to be a Worthy opponent, and this time at Dyzart Park, Hollidayshurg met defeat. The third and final meet of the season was held at State College. Our team Went there on an invitation from State College to participate in a meet in which several other high schools took part. At the end of the tournament our boys came home with second honors.
