We drink to you, Hooversville Hi, To greater victories, to best success. 'Tis a sad and hard thing, to bid you all adieu, You Freshmen cannot realize 'tis your dreams come trueg How we depart sadly. and not at all content When we leave old Hooversville Hi, Where our happy days were spent. Our teachers were our guardians, to guide us in our step, They were our inspiration, our ambition and our pep. And Seniors, one by one. will say Goodbye To such another Senior, who returns it with a sigh. And last of all Alma Mater, we bow adieu To Hooversville Hi, our love for you. ELEANOR SUNDAY.

If you listen, we'll tell you of our High School days, When we struggled along side by side, The joy and the sorrow in our memory stays And e'er and e'er will abide. They are now past and gone but we cherish them stillg The days that we spent in high school. Our parting brings sorrow and a tear in each eye As we say our final good-bye. CHORUS Our dear high High School days, the days we cherish so- Were happy and gay, we all went our way To work and to play. Now we say good-bye, though a tear is in each eye. We trust that we will meet, And Rnd happiness .complete Again in the sweet bye and bye. 12 19 .TIZZZZZZZ H. H.

It was a nice day in September One October in July, When starting to Hooversville We Greenies so shy. We went to the professor To enroll for many classes, It was a wonderful enrollment That engaged us lads and lasses. The girls were talking gailyg The boys were full of gloom. At last we all ascended To an upper class-room. The time was Tuesday morning, On Wednesday just at night. We saw a number of teachers, And we could.n't get out of sight. And when the day was over, On that school we turned our backs, We' were very glad indeed to go home, Fcgl olur faces were whitewashed ac . September, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven found over a score of proud youngsters ready to start their high school career. We thought we knew sufficient to combat any difli- culties which may arise. 'At the end of the Freshman year we had been completely broken in and had settled down to be ordinary pupils. We were glad to see dear, old vacation come. A new term began! Jolly Sophs we were called. I must say we were a jolly bunch-ah, too jolly to please the faculty. Af-ter the second year ended we decided that if we were to become Seniors we had to settle down and do some hard work-so our Junior Class did. We traveled along very smooth- ly in high gear. Our third vacation was over. We had attained the long envied position of Dignified Seniors . We tried our hardest to wear the mask of dignity but all in vain. We were called the most carefree Senior Class in the his- tory of the school. Every other history has a war con- nected with it and so has ours. Our war began here four years ago. It has been a fierce struggle for learning. We have been taught while here that the most important facts about history are the causes and results. The causes for our war are CD a desire for knowledge C25 a struggling ambition. The result is the graduat- ing class now ready to start out in the world with the greatest victory. This victory of ours has four important fac- tors-the cultivated brotherly love that will last foreverg the love of our fel- low classmates, the joy in knowing that we have found a companion and friend in each of our teachers and the consolation that we have obtained a high school education, unique in ev- ery detail from one of the best high schools in Pennsylvania. We have added a pebble for the foundation of a greater Alma Mater and we hope that our presence here will not be forgotten.. GOLDIE SHAFFER iiiii-11 THE SENIOR CLASS iWILL We the members of the Senior Class of 1931, Ccommonly referred to as the I-Iooversville Silly Seniors! whereas: we have learned all the ways, wiles and weaknesses of this institution to such a degree as to allow us to gradu- ate, and as theday draws near when we are to sign off and whereas: we are of strong bod and mind Qocca- ssionallyl, we do liereby make this our last will and testament: Item I. To our honored and well-beloved principal, we hereby bequeath the peace of mind that will naturally fol- low our exit from the aforesaid in- stitution, the tranquility of soul and freedom from cares with which the aforesaid principal has been afflicted during our long and brilliant career. Item II. To our most esteemed faculty, who by their loving care and direction have caused us to extract bunches of our topmost and most valuable hair, we do give them, Cwhile despairing of our wretched conditionj, the ligne that blessings brighten as they e their flight. Even so may it be with us. Item III. To the Junior Class we leave that most priceless possession, the birth- right and pride of every Senior, that 119 IiI.I,II.IfIIIIII: H. H. S. IfI::.I.ILI.Z.I 311 mantle of dignity with which we have long been clothed. Vested with this they imbibe the unassuming may quiet ways and maidenly modesty that have always characterized the class of 1931. Item IV. To the Sophomore Class we leave our perseverence. With this may they eventually be able to obtain Ye Old Sheep Skin and thus pull the wool over somebody's eyes in the fu- ture. Item V. To the Freshman Class we give the newest wrinkles on How to Keep Young, under the strain and stress of it all. Formula for same will be left under lock and key in Mr. Rummel's oiiice. Also to the Greenies we leave that which pains us most to give up. Though this tears our heart strings and causes the tears to flow freely, yet will we make the supreme sacrifice, and thus do hereby bequeath to your hearts - our Hooversville belles and beaux, and they may love, honor and obey. Item VI. To the Janitor we will our torn up love notes, exam papers, and bad cards, that he may remember us in the days to come. Item VII. To the school ghost we leave our departed spirits to keep him company during his nightly visits. Item VIII. To the timid boys and bashful girls in school, we leave our feeling of Let the world wiggle, I have it by the tail. Item IX. To the rest of the world, we leave our heartache-s, discouragements, sense of humor, good will and all other necessities of life. Written and sealed under the au- thority of the Senior Class, sole execu- tors of this will and testament, on this, the twenty-seventh day of May, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty-one in the pres- ence of: Miriam Shaffer, Dorothy Jonathan.

Boy's Sport Summary: In the successful football season of 1930, the boys have worked hard to serve their High School, winning two games out of nine. Those taking an active part in the games were.

The call for basketball candidates was answered by a large number of girls from all classes. Many of the girls from last year's team were back and also many new faces were among the group. But no matter whether old or new, all were eager for play to begin. Because of the large number that came to practice Coach Ripple had to have two practices. The girls from the Senior High School, practicing three nights a week and those from the Junior High practicing one night a week. Finally, after weeks of hard prac- tice, we were ready to play our first game, but it seemed as if fate was against us, because we lost. So it seemed every game afterwards until we played Stoyestown, In this game our team led the score the first three quarters, but Stoyestown tied it in the fourth quarter. Being so near to victory rallied the girls and gave them hope that they would beat Stoyestown when they played on the home floor, but this hope was soon shattered because Stovestown called the game off. Several other games were played but always the opposing team seemed just one or two steps ahead. Although the basketball squad did- n't win any games they have shown splendid spirit and sportsmanship throughout the schedule. We hope that our fans aren't discouraged with us, for remember, this was only our second year and we are going to try our best to be successful next year and in the years to come. The team wishes to extend its sin- cerest t.hanks and best wishes to Coach Ripple, the faculty, student body and many other fans who have supported us. The basketball schedule was as fol- lows: January 16 Rockwood, away January 20 . .......... Boswell, away January 23 ....... Shade Twp., home January 30 ....... Stoyestown, away February 6 ..........

The curtain of 1930-31 is soon to be drawn together and for some it will never open again, but while we are lerf ffzd the story is just about to reach the climax, let us all be happy and strive to make the conclusion of this wonderful story have us standing on a step higher toward success. Each. month of the past reveals to us some of the enjoyable happenings of school life. ' Scplember-with its autumn breez's floating about caused the arms of H. H. S. to reach out and bring us into her fold. Then the initiation of those green Freshies can be recalled with those painful looking creatures walking up Main street in their stocking feet and night Howns. We new can say Well done Freshies, your job will soon be over and soon you can start planning on how to torture the next ores and break them into the routine oi those Freshman tasks . With all those football games ap- proaching we better hurry on to the month of pumpkins and witches with the heroic deeds tif we can call them such! of that football squad of ours. We didn't win so many games but Oh! to look at those suits QThey are a wreckj you would think we were famous. Oh! by the way-this is the month that Mr. Cyou make me smileb gave that expressive speech in assembly. Remember how he snapped his fing- ers. November and December brings a cold atmosphere but we didn't mind that but kept thinking of vacation. Everyone seemed full-of pep these two months and some one especially because Robert Wheeling happened to have two black eyes. Poor Bob, al- ways something wrong and now he is gone. We won't say never to return cause I think, everybody thinks, he will surely appear before long. Doughnuts seemed. to be the crave of some of the girls during this month. Do we like doughnuts? Yea-was the response. Might I just impress this date upon your mind January 9, 1931 as the date lihose terrible history reports were HEL January, bleak and cold, brought basketball into our fold. Was it a success? Decide for yourself. During this cold month. everyone was kept busy studying for semester examinations. They went over big for some but for others, Oh! Oh! The Seniors kept calling the youths and until the date of February 12 they had quite a large crowd at their class play, The Call of Youth . Miriam Shaffer just couldn't be persuaded to fall down stairs but On My! could she fall up. February-This is the month He fell off of the horse. Who? Why Washington, of course. Patronls Day was February 25 and just recall how shaky you felt when you heard a rap on the door for fear it was your parents. March, onward march. Only two more months to march, but while we are here let us recall the inspiring message of Mr. Yoder and his wonderful singing. Helen Penick represented H. H. S. in lghe oratorical contest and did very we . April-They say April showers bring May flowers, but for us they bring May tests. April 23, the High School play was presented in the Savoy theatre. The title was, Climbing Roses. The home economics classes pre- sented their fashion show on May 12. I don't think the boys enjoyed them- selves. Then May 13, those Sophomores gave the big affair, or banquet to the Seniors. Everyone enjoyed themselves and better ask someone what they re- ceived as presents for some were quite useful. We now will bid school events for the year of 30-31 goodbye and look forward to another year of tests, speeches, and of course, entertain- ment. Farewell! M. S. 19 --..--............ H. H. S. 222222122 31 Athletic Association. Athletic Association was organized in September in the assembly room. The constitution requires new officers each term, so officers were elected as follows: President-Dorothy Jonathan. Vice President-Blanch Shaffer. Secretary-Robert Wheeling. Treasurer-Mr. George Mease. Cheer Leaders - William Zimmer- man, Virginia Twigg and Eleanor Sunday. As a means of raising funds to car- ry on our athletic program, we spon- sored a dance. The Four Aces pro- vided us with music, while advertise- ments and invitations brought a large crowd. During intermission refresh- ments were served. Those on the committee, that made the dance possible, were the Associa- tion officers, Mary Blank, Kenneth Lohr and Irvin Chisholm. The Association proved to be a suc- cess, due to the co-operation of teachers, pupils and patrons of the town. D. L. J. '31 CHEMISTRY. Did you ever see some of the mem- bers of the Chemistry class carrying odd little packages to the laboratory on Tuesdays and Thursdays? Well, if you did, ask them how they enjoyed the sandwiches, and ask Helen Pen- ick how to hard boil eggs in the cup- board of her laboratory desk. The first day we had an occasion for using the hood in making that terrible smelling chlorine gas. Martha Stewart said, How do we get in it? Mr. Clarke, intending to say, I will give you the common names of the chemicals, said, I will give you the comical names of these elements. Mr. Clarke: Martha, what is plaster paris used for? Martha Cindicating her arms and handsj said, It is used to set broken legs. Crash!!! What was that? Oh, noth- ing, Bobby Wheeling just knocked a large glass flask on the floor. If you ask Sam why the toes of his shoes do not look alike, he will tell you that sulphuric acid ate the first layer of leather off of one of them. We wonder who put sulphuric acid on Miriam Tip4ton's dress? aM. H. S. '31 Senior French Class. The last period of the day eirht girls are seen entering Miss Mowry's room for their daily lesson in French. The French class seems quite cer- tain that after they have completed their French course they will be able to speak it like a regular French lady. Croyez-le? Oui! Oui! At the present time the French class is anxiouslv awaiting letters from French girls. They wrote to France for names of girls that want to cor- respond with American girls, but as yet the girls have not received any letters written in French. E. S. '31 MUSIC III and IV. A Glee Club was not organized in the music department this year. How- ever, during the past term various members of the music class sang at school affairs and at P. T. A. meet- ings. The theory of music was taught to some extent in the various classes. One great aim of H. H. S. in the near future should be to install a recognized course in music, from which every student will have the op- portunity to develop his talents if he possesses any. Music is helpful to ev- ery individual, whether or not he di- t e sires to further his knowledge in course and great benefits can be de- rived from a good music course in the Hooversville High School. M. I. C. '31 Business Arithmetic Junior and Senior The boys seem willing to allow the future business of Hooversville and the surrounding vicinity to be hand- led by the girls, since none are tak- ing advantage of the practical course in business arithmetic, which is offer- ed. The class is composed of nine girls and no boys. We were discussing the traveler's check in class. Mr. Rummel stated that you could get it cashed in a res- taurant if you would buy your break- 19 ................ZZZ ll-ll. H. S. 222221222 31 fast there even if it cost only 10c. Then Margaret Betts wondered if you would get the change. Miriam Shaffer is afraid she would be cheated by not getting the correct change if she were in England and using English money. She is afraid she wou1dn't know if she got the right change if she bought a meal for 20 shillings and 'fave them a .1-G. CNote 20s equals 12.5 Every Friday morning and noon one can hear the girls from the busi- ness arithmetic class call to each oth- er as they come to school Do you have your assignments worked? A. H. '32 Sophomore H istory. Our World Today and Yesterday. We didn't learn anything and noth- ing was accomplished, so there is nothing to write, might be said, but, the jolly Sophomores wouldn't allow Ilglt, so here is what we did accomp- 1 . We had to hand in two semester re- ports. No, not encyclopedia biogra- phys. The first one was due on the ninth of Janua.ry and the second one was due on May the first. Any re- port coming in later than four o'clock of said dates had an invitation to visit the waste basket. Well, no reports of the jolly Sophomores visited the waste basket. One day our instructor, Mr. Mease, started to give out invitations to a tea fparty. He missed some of us and of course we felt slighted. Those who at- tended said History sandwiches were .served for lunch. Several of these tea ,parties were held. Once Mr. Mease promised to serve salt water tally if we would bring sugar along to sweet- en it. We have enlarged our vocabulary a little bit, too. One day we found the word, Reichsdeputationshauptschulus, in our lesson. We all, anxious to know how to pronounce it, asked Mr. Mease-. He told us that anyone who tried to pronounce it was crazy. If you wish to know how to pronounce it, ask Mary Mate. Then., too, one day we were talk- ing about different ideas of science. Emma told us that scientists claim the world weighs so much less now than it did. Ginny solved that question for us. She said everyone was reducing. Gin does have bright ideas. Don't know where she gets them. Oh yes! One day we were talking about causes of the World War. Some one mentioned jealousy. Mr. Mease said, Yes, there comes another big cause of the War. And who do you suppose stepped in-no other than Mr. Rummel. Well, coincidents will happen. Oh yes! I almost forgot. We studied about India. We know most anything about India. Ask us what happened to Clive. Recently Emma was reciting. All at once she stopped and asked Mr. Mease if that wasn't right. Mr. Mease told her to go ahead, that he hadn't said anything. Emma said, But you looked so funny. I can't help that, was all Mr. Mease could say. So you see we really did accomplish something. E H. '33 Sophomore Health Class. Friday morning, the last period, the Sophomores go to Health class. Here we found out that there are many vegetarians around Hooversville, be- cause Minnie Sheffler says vegetar- ians are people who raise vegetables. We handed in menus to Miss Lehman for each meal of the day, but if some of them would be used, we feel sure the doctor or the undertaker would have a very rushing business. H. S. '33 Sophomore Biology Class. Our Biology class has quite a good time because we do many experi- ments. We had an operation on a cat in order to see its internal organs, and to help us in studying the human body. The cat was put to sleep with ether and chloroform. Levan Ober was the surgeon, or if you wish., you may call him a butch- er. Mary Mate was the poor cat's con- stant nurse. Kenneth Lohr was sup- posed to be an assistant butcher but he played the feminine role and Le- van had to do the work himself. Hel- grnzfxzsnxfsgirxnnnxruz 1,-,,,1,,.,,,-,,,1,-,,-0. fl voiuinzuiux-:Log-.1-.4 O 0 3 .tions---11,491-301-.11104 ' en Sunday held back her saliva in her mouth, Dorothy Dull seemed deeply interested at intervals, Lola Livings- ton held one of the cat's feet and Em- ma Berkebile held another and ex- amined its insides closely. Ruth Fid- ler seemed very much amused and wasn't quite as eifeminate as she us- ually is. Leah Boyts and Geneva Dendura pitied the unfortunate cat and acted as its mourners. Both thought 'twas a sin to kill a dumb creature without cause. They would fnot look on although Mr. Clark cor- dially invited them. Although Mr. Clark invited others, he stood away most of the time, himself. Ruth Lam- berson missed the great catastrophe, because she was not in school that day. This is the role that the Biology students played on that day. One day an alcohol lamp burst on Mr. Clark's desk and a flame started. You should have seen us girls run- ning up the steps from the laboratory. But Mr. Clark, Levan Obey and Ken- neth Lohr easily put out the Hame with some rags and a fire extinguish- er. G. D. '33 ENGLISH. English is a class that most of us like and should like because it is there that we learn to speak, read, and write. And one knows that we should not get along very well with- out English, for all other subjects are based on it. Our class has one fault, that is disagreeing, each has his own opinion, but I think it always turned out for the good, because instead of the teacher telling us the right and wrong, she tells us to look it up and 'find out. In that way we sometimes not only found what we were looking lfor, but other interesting material. We have studied some very inter- esting classics this year. Some that were entertaining, as well as benefi- cial, such as Ivanhoe, The Making of an American and Silas Mariner. When we studied Silas Mariner we made a booklet of pictures, letting them tell the story. These were very interesting for we were allowed to end it as we liked. Some had very interesting endings. L. B. '33 MUSIC. Here it is, Tuesday morning, the last period, there goes the bell, it is time to go to music class. Come on, let's rush to the auditorium so we can sing. Oh! Miss Mowry isn't here yet, so Ken Lohr will entertain us with a Diano solo. It sounds rather peculiar, but we all like it. There comes Miss Mowry, so I guess we'll doalittle note reading. That's over, so will write the scales. They aren't hard to remember. I guess we'll sing some songs now, they cheer us up a little. It's soon time for the bell, there it goes. I am sure we're all ready for a hearty lunch. M. M. '33 LA TIN II. The second year Latin course has been very interesting throughout the year. In fact I think we will all adopt the Latin language. And how? The Latin group is not only consid- ered a studious group, but also a group of good sponts, including the teacher, Miss Ripple. One day when Stanley Miller was enjoying himself Miss Ripple says, Stanley, don't ever start anything in here. Stanley replied, I didn't think you were looking. Miss Ripple was explaining what the term fords mean. She said, Fords are places in the road which are somewhat like a river and we tread about them often in Latin. Pu- pil says, Yes, we crossed one of those too, one day, but that was be- cause the bridge was torn away. V. T. '33 HOME ECONOMICS. Our Home Economics class is not very large. It is made up of three Seniors, three Juniors, and four Soph- omores. This being our first year in trying to sew, we made quite a few mistakes such as, sewing the bottom of our pajamas shut, making seams on the right side of the material, trying to sew on the machine withoutaneed- le and many other mistakes. We are now studying about the dif- ferent materials, how they are grown and how they are woven and the weave that is in the cloth after it is 19 2 . I...ZIZZZIIZ H. H. S. 2022222221: 31 finished. We are all very proud of the things we made for ourselves. After we had our pajamas made we had a pajama parade. lvuss Lehman, our Home Economics teacher, had a fashion show on Tues- day, May the twelfth, at P. T. A. M. S. '3 Plane Geometry. We have started with broken lines, angles, circles, radius, bisectus, lines, points, triangles, squares and rectang- les. We have ended with similar fig- ures, which coincide, equal figures, equivalent figures, parallel lines and bisectus. Can you find the height of a tree without climbing it, the distance be- tween two points which cannot be reached, or the width of a river with- out crossing it? It is all simply enjoy- ment after taking a course in Geom- etry. ,, William Zimmerman has also learn- ed that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. That is why he plants his corn in curved rows, so that the rows are longer. D. E. '32 ...ilii ENGLISH. The Fat Beauty Shoppe! Mgr. Hazel Rodger This is the new shop that is now open for business. Please make appointments early as we are doing a rushing business. The shop is open from 9:40 to 10.30 A. M. Place of business-Room 3, better known as Miss Mowry's room. While in the midst of a very dry discussion on one of Scott's extremely humorless writings, Eddie Boyer in- nocently asked, Was James Fitz James a princess or queen or some- thing like that? And was he perplex- ed as to the reason for the laughter which greeted his innocent question? Learn How to be Strong! See and hear all about the art of attaining large muscles in one min- ute! A copy from one of the Strong Man's books: With the aid of two large handker- chiefs placed under the sleeve, di- rectly above the biceps, a large mus- cle will miraculously appear. A few books, tablets, etc., placed upon the chest will give the scholar a feeling of confidence in his swiftly increasing strength All emergency mending can be tak- en care of by Kathryn Walker. During the absence of Miss Mowry from class one day, Kathryn chose to make herself useful by making Evan Wieble's buttonhole smaller. A careful examination of the buttonhole will cause much comment on the unique way in which it was done. Please bring all mending, she's rarin! to got Discovery! A new part of speech has been dis- covered! Can you guess what it is? No? Well, I'll tell you, it's an Adjec- tive Pronoun! Hurray, unknown dis- coverer! When the Freshmen entered Eng- lish this year, a new branch of study was opened to them. The monthly bodk reports, how distressing they are. Among the various new branches we took up are Classics. Indeed! They have caused our English program to vary. M. D. '34 CIVICS. Community Civics was made very interesting by the following incident: Mr. Mease had forbidden individual members of the class to chew gum during class, unless they had enough for everyone. One day the class de- cided that all pupils should chew gum in Mr. Meas-e's class. As everyone was supposed to chew, it included Mr. Mease, but the one who was to give the gum to Mr. Mease neglected to do so in the beginning ofthe class and consequently the fun fell through. For being contrary also, the teacher de- cided to be contrary, for thirty days. After a long argued discussion we decided to compromise. '1'he terms of the compromise were: the class must acquire the Banking and P. T. A. ban- ners. The teacher agreed to refrain from further punislunent. Never, in all the history of the H. H. S. did a class strive so hard to at- bo1o1o1n:o1a .03 1, 19 -.....,.......Z2f H. H. S. ....Z-IZZZ:. 31 tain their goal. As the zero hour ap- proached the Freshmen looked anx- iously at those who were to aid them. The anxious look was somewhat lift- ed when the first banner was won. But a faint shadow of anxiety re- mained on the usually cheerful faces of the Freshmen, for half the battle was yet to be won. After having attained our goal we emerged from the somewhat prolong- ed battle., a happy and wiser class. Other minor incidents were far too munerous to be stated on this limit- ed space. Economic Civics. After having patiently studied the different forms of government, the ab- solute Monarchy was established for the Freshmen, as a punishment for not voting for student government. Mr, Mease reigned as king. His Royal Highness reigned with an iron hand, taking much pleasure in refusing our every request. A genius has been discovered! Eve- lyn Hershberger has become noted for her memory which is very large. Shortly after Mr. Mease had given the definition for a bank., he asked Evelyn Hershberger to repeat the def- inition. With a puzzled look on her :ice she answered, I can't remem- r.' Vocational Civics. Near the end of the school term we took up the study of vocations. You will be surprised in the number of people from the Freshmen who will soon climb the highest peak of Suc- cess! Encouragement will help us greatly. Here is your chance to better the world. A very surprising fact has been re- vealed: Mr. Mease: Cleda, name five things which help to meet the needs of the people. Cleda, awakening suddenly- Eh - I don't know. Mr. Mease- Cleda, what were you interested in? Cleda- You We have progressed fairly well in this branch of study, taking into con- sideration that Civics is a study al- together new to us. J. O. '34 First Year Latin. When the Freshies entered High School last September they started to study a language which was new and strange to them. Latin-you guessed it right the first time, After the usual tis-. over see- ing each other again, was over, Miss Rippel told us to get quiet while she gave us our Latin books. We glanced through them and nearly collapsed upon seeing such a strange lookin 5 jumble of words and everyone was sure that he would never leam Latin. Then the teacher explained to us how greatly we needed Latin and told us how valuable it would be to us after leaving school. We decided it wasn't going to be so bad after all. For the next six weeks we applied ourselves diligently to our work and it was getting cleaner every day in every wayg then we received our re- port cards. Most of the pupils had a high mark and a few thought to themselves, Oh, Latin is easy, all you have to do is pay active attention in class and get a good mark in the quiz, and they proceeded to do just that for the next six weeks. When we next got our report cards is when the fun came! Those who had followed the above rule marched ov- er to see why they d.idn't get an A or even a B. Miss Rippel looked surpris- ed and said, You didn't hand your papers in every day, and they had to be satisfied with what they had. Since that., we have had a very nice class. One day one of the boys was mis- behaving and Miss Rippel reproved him in Latin and forgot to say one of the words. Here is what she said, Warren Sorber est non puer. Poor Warren looked bewildered and for once was speechless. This incident provoked much laughter from the rest of the class at Warren's expense and he still blushes when Miss Rippel looks at him. The other day Mr. Rummel asked the class, How many of you are go- ing to Hunk Latin? Everyone was silent and not a hand went up. S. O. '34 First Year Algebra. Algebra one? Yes sir! And how! We're one of the livliest class- es in High School fand why not?J for we have a representative group from each of the first three high school classes - Freshman, Sophomore and Q . . 119 :::':::::::: H. H. S. :::i:i::::1:::1: 311 Junior-and we feel very proud of the fact. Mr. Rummel, our very effi- cient teacher, says that we make u 9 one of the most alert and most stud- ious classes in Algebra that he has ever had the privilege of teaching. For the school year nineteen thirty and thirty-one we are completing our book, which includes a small amount of Geometry and Trigonometry, in very good time and oh, how we like those long lessons, fespecially the ones containing reading questionsj. Now that includes all but Sam Mor- ello and he just can't figure out by any method QAlgebra includedj which kind he likes best. Algebra is easy for some and hard for others, but nothing can be appre- ciated which we obtain too easily and therefore, right now, we are forming one equasion of our future life from a little bit of hard work which will some day equal inestimable returns. When we first began to solve additon problems containing positive and neg- ative numbers, we found that in add- ing we really found the difference. There were many differences but us- ually in our answers. Of course we learned many things which we thought we already knew, finding them to climb high above our form- er knowledge. We'll have to admit Calthough it's very hard to do at certain timesl that we don't know quite all that there is to be acquir- ed in the field of mathematics. But it is the hope of all to conquer higher and deeper subjects-to climb high up the ladder leading to success. Many times class begins thus- Why Edna? -1 'Well-a-V 'Period+, tell us Kathryn. Why-er- Answer any- one. Cclass responds in unison.J Oh, that's just an old math custom. Of course there are exceptions when Sam is in class. There are exceptions to all good rules, even in Algebra. The question came up in class one day to the effect that What would be the result of a football squared? The answer was, A square football. We also learned to practice constancy. Here is a good example, What is a pax-a11elogram? A bent rectangle. What is a rectangle? A parallelo- gram? How do you know? Be- cause that's what it is. Oh! What's the use? Mr. Rummel finished calling down Steve Wilco one day by advis- ing him to get a strong pair of glass- es, but when he turned to the board to find the question for which he had reprimanded Steve, it simply avoided his vision, which WAS aided by glasses. But you can't expect anyone to be perfect for there are just as many chances for a teacher to make a mistake as for any pupil. Our class shines in reading formulas. One day Don Diehl was asked to read a formula containing the literal numbers MF and MG. After a pause he re- sponded that the meaning of MF was manufacturing and so Mr. Rummel called MG Maytag, to balance the equasion. Just the same our class is noted for its honesty and we're not afraid to admit mistakes. J. L. O. '33 Freshman Health. Miss Lehman to Donald Koontz- Donald, what have you in your mouth besides a tongue? Don-- Teeth, teacher. lVliss Lehman- Is that all? Don-- Yes, dear teacher. Miss Lehman- Donald, did you ev- er hear of saliva? Don- Yes, but isn't that something that causes the horses to foam at the mouth? Miss Lehman-'fCan't you tell me anything about the palates? Don- Sure! That's that thing the artists use when they paint. Ker-Shoo!! Peals of thunder rolled from the health room on the morning of Fri- -day, the 24th-that is, it would have sounded like that to an eavesdropper. It seems to me that coughing is very catching, because when one per- son starts to cough all the students follow the leader. Now as this was very annoying to Miss Lehman, she stopped talking and gave us time 'outf and, of course, we are all very polite students so we took advantage of the situation and everyone had to cough, sneeze, blow his nose or clear his throat. When she said that time was up, we became very quiet and still, but you know' how it is one can't sit still all the time, so if we had to cough, we did it as quietly as possible, be- cause we were thoroughly ashamed of ourselves. Oh, yes, there were times when we 19 ' . .Z H. H. S. :::::::::: 31 didn't have time to finish studying our lessons, and of course, Miss Leh- man would have a nice little tea party after school. They were not like the ones Mr. Mease had for his his- tory classes. She would make us study lessons for the next week and then she- would give us a test to see if we really studied. Yes, Miss Lehman is good at giving' tests, the only trouble is that they're not so easy to swallow. You should have heard the questions and the answers to the last test we took, but then it wouldn't be fair to tell. When this was found to take too much of her time, Miss Lehman re- sorted to outlines. They're SWELL, take it from someone who knows. This is a summary of what we leaimed this year in health: 2. ........................ .. 3. .. 4. .. .. 5. .. .. 6. .... .. 7. .. 8. .... ....... . . 9. ................................ . 10. ............................... . Don't you think we were success- ful? H. R. '34 MUSIC. Gong. Everybody rushes from Lat- in class down to the assembly room on Monday morning. Everybcdv talks at once when suddenly the door op- ens, quiet down, class. You two boys go over to the office and brine the gray and brown books over. The silence is broken by a whistel. Bud, will you please stop that? Honest, Miss Mowry, I didn't know I could do that Well, don't try it in here. Class open your brown books to page twelve, exercise three. The troom is filled with oh's or, I don't like these exercises, let's sing some songs. After the exercises had been read everybody starts talking again. Now, class, quiet down. If you three boys ca.n't be quiet you may IYXOVE up on these seats. Points seats out. Boys disobey. Come up here on these quiet seats. As soon as this class gets we will sing some songs. Open your gray books to page eighty-four. Gong soon sounds. Ev- ery pupil tries to make a mad rush for the door. Class, sit down! Tess 'next week. Girls may go. All righq boys, you may go. Another Monday. Miss Mowry- Bud, why don't you sing? Bud Chisholm- I can't read those black things. E. H. '34 Home Economics. Peals of laughter coming from the sewing room greeted the ears of the listener tif there was a listenerj. The champion sewer had sewed her sleeve in upside down.Who is so lucky as to be called that? Margaret Difrancisco, of course. Oh! What could be more disappoint- ing than crooked seams after hours of hard work? Well, our patience was sorely tried. And what do you do when dresses, pajamas or slips do not tit? I-lere's what you have to do: rip seams, make darts or cut the material to fit. Oh! but those are trying moments. How the minutes did Hy the Wed- nesday before the day our dresses were to be completed. We had scarce- ly taken out our sewing boxes before the gong sounded, and happy was the day we all completed our dresses. But now, sewing lessons are over and as a reward we have a slip, a pair of pajamas and a dress. S. I. '34 Geography Eighth Grade. There goes the last gong, which means that we must start off our morning classes, first going into Mr. Clark's room, where we take our Geography Those steps leading to our classroom seem long and dismal to some of us, but others go up mer- rily, humming a SOI1g. As we seat ourselves in order we hear the voice of our Geography teacher, Mr. Clark, who asked Mild- red where our lesson is. Mildred sat hesitating a bit, and then glanced out the window, where she saw the mountains which she knew were a part of the Alleghenies and then ans- wered, We are studying about Penn- sylvaniaf' We enjoy studying about the state D011 x 119 --.IZIIZIZIIIZ ll-ll. H. S. II'.'l:II11'.Z,IQI'.fI 311 of Pennsylvania, because we live in it, we also like to study about its mountains and its fresh rivers, its industries and the way the people live. We have studied this year all the countries of the globe, which were very interesting. We found out by studying this, how the other people of the world live, but it seems as we go on studying we find out that we like best to study the state in which we live. As we go on with our les- son Mr. Clark turns to Frances and asks her who discovered the steam engine which we use very mach. Frances didn't hear him because she was busy telling Ralph where she was Saturday night. She did like we all do when asked a question which is- n't heard, we say what? well, this is what Frances said and got away with it, for the answer was James Watt. We all laughed, as usual, for one enjoys a good laugh once in a whil.e Mr. Clark then asked one of the pupils who founded Pennsylvania, and the date it was founded. This not only puzzled that person but some of us. Of course everyone of us knew who founded it, but, as we don't re- member our dates very well, we were stuck in the mud., as they say. On the question of the date that Pennsylvania was founded there were only two who knew, but soon the rest of us found out because our faithful His- tory books were on our desks, and I bet it didn't take a minute before the whole class knew. Finally, this person who was called on, got up and said that the state of Permsylvania was founded by Will- iam Penn in the year of 1681, 183 years after Columbus discovered America. We all got that date into our heads so that we wouldn't for- get it again. As our lesson goes on many ques- tions are asked and answered readily. As our period of Geography is nearly over Mr. Clark says that we are go- ing to have a test the next morning to see if we know all we should about it. It is almost time for the gong to ring, so we gather together our books and papers. As the gong rings we go out of that room thinking that the next morning we will make hundreds. M. B. '35 39 HEALTH. The seventh grade health class took the final exam on Tuesday, the twen- ty-sixth day of May. Miss Lehman, the teacher, is trying her best to teach us things which will help us to take care of our bodies. Cloyd and Mattie always have to sit on the front seat on account of mis- behavior. George Zibiski is sent out of the room every health class for being mis- chievous. There is a crowd of girls sitting in the back row who always fool around and when the teacher asks thern :z question the answer is, I don't know. The 'boys were all sitting together at the beginning of the term, but the teacher had to move them because they were too sociable. M. Z. '35 GEOGRAPHY. I am writing about seventh grade Geography. Mr. Clark is trying to teach us Ge- ography, but it seems that we do not want to do as he tells us. Some times we do not know our lesson and he makes us stay in. One day we did not know it and all but Frank Lauer had to stay in. Some of the pupils went home, then we had to stay in the next night, but not very long. J. L. '35 Home Economics Seventh Grade Our expert sewer is Teresa Kuch- inski. When the rest are thinking what to do, she is almost through. Rose Dolingo doesn't mind ripping out the machine stitching, because that's all she gets done. Some of the girls take their pa- jamas home to finish, and Miss Leh- man doesn't know anything about it. Helen Dolingo and Teresa Kuchin- ski like to make Miss Lehman angry. Viola Angelo is afraid to sew on the electric machine, because it sews too fast. We hope that when we are Seniors we will be regular seamstresses. N. J. '36 119 ......-.,....':..L.,:. H. H. S. :::.:::::::::::::': 311 ENGLISH. The seventh grade is now starting to review English. The best friends of Miss Ripple are Mattie Kubas and Cloyd Keith. Cloyd Keith was sent out of class because of misbehavior. Another name, which Mattie likes is Mickey Himself. At the end of the school term Miss Ripple will be ready to leave for her home which is at McKeesport, Pa. Mattie Kubas has lately been go- ing with Dorothy Bohn, and that is why he does not get his English out. While English class is going on, John Lauer is alwavs bitting his :Fin- ger nails, that is why he cannot ans- wer the question when he is asked. The English exam was held May 25. Mattie has lately been sent out ol class because of 'spring fever? T ,3 . . J Music, Eventh Grade. Yeah! Here is the seventh grade with their song, Tumble Town. We all like this song because someone is always tumbling around. Another song we like is When the Day is Done, because most of us don't like school. We think it's too much bother. Mattie, Eugene, Cloyd and Rudolph are the four big jokes of seventh grade. All of us like to hear Hallelu- jah I'm a Bum, by Mattie and Cloyd. Mattie sings, Cloyd plays the har-1 monica. We like to hear Lewis, the iiddle player, too. Sometimes we write in music class and sometimes we sing in assembly. All we like in school is the fun we have, especially in Miss Mowry's room. There is one thing that the teacher don't like about seventh grade - we do too much laughing. We know that we shouldn't laugh, but we can't help it. lr you would see some of the things some people do in class, you would laugh too. W. B. '34 Arithmetic, Seventh Grade. When Mr. Clark gives Mattie Ku- bas a question he says, I can't do it, when he did not even try. Mr. Clark signs us questions to put on the board., half of the pupils can't do their problems, he helps them, and then the period is all gone and we gave the same problems for the next ay. Some pupils work their problems and Mr. Clark tells them to explain how they got the answer and they don't know. Some pupils multiply 9x9 and get 81 square feet, and divide 3 into 27 cubic feet and get 9 feet. When Mr. Clark is working a prob- lem on the board, Mattie Kubas calls out what the answer is, and Mr. Clark says Yes, you looked in the back of the book. R. D. '36 19 iZZZZ:l' H. H. S. IZZIIIIZZZ 31 JOKES. Lester- Say, did you hear about Sam's accident? He fell out of a sec- ond story- window. Clark- Break anything? Lesster- No. He fell on his back and held the bottle in his hand. Tony- What's all the commotion about dovxm there, a fire? Lloyd- No, a man went to cross a bridge in his car. Tony- Well, Lloyd- And there was no bridge. Dorsey- Why are you so interest- ed in Viola?

Sam Morello- Well, you see fath- er, you told me to eat yeast in the easiest way for me to take it. Father- Well, what has that to do with it? Sam- I decided to take it in beer. Justice. Justice is too often a few yips at a dozen yaps . That meal went over fine, said Miss Ripple as she lined the rail on her first voyage overseas. Wade- Did you remain cool dur- ing the fight? Matty- Yes, I was shivering all the time. Bob- No wonder you're sick, drinking gin every night and Scotch every meal. Clifford- Oh, that isn't what hurts me, it's the alcohol I drink in be- tween. Mr. Mease+ Why didn't you get your trousers pressed? Mr. Rummel- I couldn't. Mefase- Why? Mr. Mr. Rummel- Well, every place I'd go to would have a sign reading, rs pressed inside! 'Trouse - Mr. Mease- Wel1? Mr. Rummel- I want mine pressed on the outside. Levan- Wha'ts your ambition? Eleno- I 'aint got any, I just want to be President of the United States. Being told to write an esqay on a mule Helen Sunday turned in the following paper to her teacher: The mule is a harder bird than the goose or turkey. It has two legs to walk with and two more to kick with and wears its wings on the side of its head. It is stubbornly backward about going forward. Miss Mowry- What part of speech is kiss? Martha- A conjunction. Miss Mowry- Why? Martha- Because it connects. Bill Zimmerman had just had an accident with his Ford. He limped to a telephone and called up the near- est garage. Hello, he said, I've just t1n'ned turtle, can you do anything for me? Pm afraid not, came the reply, You've got the wrong number, w t you want is the zoo. Mrs. Clark ton balcony listening to young couple belowj- I think he is going to propose, we ought not to listen. Whistle to him. Mr. Clark- Why should I? No- body whistled to warn me.
