' We trust that you will consider it a worthy successor to those editions which have gone before it. We wish it to be interesting and enjoyable, not only to the seniors, but also to all others, and, especially to the undergraduates. We are very grateful to Miss Hutchinson, our class advisor, to the members of the senior class and to others, not in the class, for the aid they have given us, which helped to lighten our task. We wish to express our appreciation for their untiring and cheerful cooperation. We hope that in years to come this book will be the medium through which the seniors of 1929 may recall the happy, carefree days of these few fleeting years spent within the walls of J. H. S. We hope that it will cause them to remember old friends and classmates and to live again happy companionships made here. If they will be able to do all this the staff will feel that all its efforts have not been in vain. Editor-in-Chief 0 The Red and Blue Editorial Staff HAROLD PIERCE Bus.

Sayings Concerning Seniors Composed By the Following: KATHERINE REUTER VIRGINIA ASH CECIL HERBERT BRUNO VALDESALICE Thirty-four CLASS POEM When our Commencement is over And our last homage is paid, When to teachers and most beloved classmates Our last farewell has been made, Then we’ll turn to our several duties, And each in his own way Will follow to the best of his knowledge The lessons he’s learned day by day. ’Twas a journey laden with duties But one over flowing with joy, For the motive back of each lesson Inspired each girl and boy. The teachers labored with patience That we might be staunch to run The race that lies just before us On the journey we've just begun. The sun may shine and storms may rage On this journey to far away lands. But the journey’s end will wholly depend On the mind, the heart, the hand; For only our deeds shall bespeak us And only our actions will tell. Whether we’ve won laurels of victory And whether we’ve won them well. But our Alma Mater has taught us To fight each battle through. To meet each trial that day by day Needs a conqueror strong and true. While here we gave you our very best. All our deeds of will and might; To give good cheer while we tarried here Was the aim of the Blue and Gold. At last we are ready to leave you Now the golden future opens. The doors of the world are wide flung And we enter with buoyant hopes. With lightened steps and hearts in tune. We face duties with courage high. As we move along in this rushing throng With resolve to conquer or die. —Mary Zimmers Thirty-five -- SENIOR HISTORY In June the Board of Managers, the School Board, gave us a three months’ vacation so the work on our paper was temporarily halted. September of 1926 rolled around quickly and now we were known as Sophomores. We were faced with the problems of choosing another editing staff. Again we showed good judgment, and selected a quartet of officers whom Miss Dickroeger wisely advised. This staff was busier than the former staff because we were permitted to enter into more activities this year. Our Athletic page was enlarged because, we were again in the limelight. A “Sophie,” John Minkle, captained the football team. We were as successful in basketball as football. This year we “came out” so as a result, we had many more social functions, such as our first class party which was a huge success. Of course, we attended all the High School dances. Once more we had a three months’ rest, and returned ready to make our Junior year an outstanding one. This year more care, than ever, had to be exercised in choosing our staff. Miss Steele carefully guided this group. Our Junior year was very important socially as well as educationally. Such events as our Prom and the choosing of our Class Rings were destined to occur. We maintained our reputation in Athletics and a member of our Class, Bernard Burzio, was chosen Football Captain. We were also well represented in basketball both boys’ and girls’ teams—the girls’ varsity being composed of five Junior girls and one Senior. Our social season was very effectively closed by our Prom which was held on May 25, at the Greensburg Country Club. The various reporters, the committee, and the staff worked very hard to make it the crowning event of our Junior year. After vacation time had passed once more we returned to school—Seniors. We were determined that we should maintain and even surpass our former successful years. This was to be carried out by our editing staff consisting of President Vaughn Monroe, Vice President Cecil Herbert, Secretary James Billups, Treasurer Lewis Kunzler and Senior Advisor Miss Hutchinson. A Junior-Senior Party was held and declared a huge success by all who attended. Many other Senior functions were held. One was the Senior Tea given the Freshmen Girls by the D. 0. D., the Senior Girls’ Club. Our class sponsored a movie which was a success as had been all our other activities. We are now looking forward to the Senior Banquet, the Junior Prom, and Commencement Exercises—Graduation. But the year will end all to soon. It will become a memory, one we will always treasure as we look back over our four years in J. H. S. Time passes quickly and soon a frontispiece shall be added to our paper which will contain a picture of our Class and will summarize our successful so-joum in Jeannette High School. This frontispiece will be entitled, “Graduation” and via this route our publication will pass into the annals of our school—J. H. S. 3 Thirty-six SB _______1 ......— ■ ■ _____________ MILDRED SCHROYER The Fall of 1925 found a group of young people termed “Freshie” deciding to edit a newspaper under the title of “Class of ’29.” This publication was to contain all the events in which our class took a part. The first important move was to choose a capable staff. Miss Holdren successfully advised the staff which began to work immediately upon our paper. Athletics was afforded one page as we were very promising in this activity. The headlines on this paper contained the news of the scoring of the lone touchdown by a “Freshie,” John Minkle, which defeated Norwin in football. Just as prominent was our place in basketball, both inter-class and varsity. Now because we were Freshies, we were not allowed to have class parties. However, the girls were feted at a Tea which was given by our Senior Sisters. r SENIOR PROPHECY MARGARET BKRAMER Slowly and carefully, I turned over and over in my hand a little crystal ball. Was it true that if one believed in its magical powers, it could picture for him that which he most wanted to know? I doubted it. But as I continued to gaze at the glass sphere—I gradually gained faith in it. I was far from home in an isolated section of a foreign land. I had been longing to know about my classmates from J. H. S. Where were they? What were they doing? What change had twenty years brought? The crystal ball was the solution to my problem. I bought it at a queer little Chinese shop; carried it home and there I sat gazing into the glass sphere, seeing nothing. Suddenly the words of the shopkeeper came to my mind—“Seekie one sing a time. Crystal no fib. Show pictures. Funny noises—one at a time.” I had been trying to see the whole class of ’29 at a glance instead of looking for one particular person. Well, I must concentrate, but upon whom? Oh! Vaughn Monroe, of course With such a brilliant start, he must surely be famous. Ah! what is this I see—an orchestra—why sure enough. It’s the New York Philharmonic and Vaughn is conducting. His baton moves gracefully, now vigorously—as the orchestra plays the famous William Tell Overture. Why I’m hearing the music too! This crystal is no fake —it is wonderful! Some scientific minded person might say I had bought a radio set concealed in a little crystal ball and that it was equipped for television. Not I—to me it is a magical crystal and if I never believed in the supernatural before, I do now. The picture is gone; but I have another. I see a luxuriously furnished office. Marie Ticken is answering the telephone, “You wish to speak with the Secretary of Education, Mr. Doberneck ? He is in conference just now with Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. Fink ” The scene fades, but another looms into view—a large ballroom. An orchestra is playing an exotic sort of syncopation. I recognize some of the members. They are: Bill Heasley and Matt Greenberg. There’s Alan Beamer too, swaying vigorously to the rhythm. Yes, and I see Margaret Davis and Adda Eaton. They must be entertaining. Their conversation is audible. “That woman, wearing the black dress with the long train, is Broadway’s most famous modiste—Madame Baughman.” “Really! Who is that tall distinguished looking gentleman by that window?” “Oh! That is Lewis Kunzler who has made a name for himself on Wall Street.” Again a little flash, now a bright portrayal—I see a stage. I hear applause. Suddenly the scene shifts. I see the entrance to a large magnificent theatre. An electric sign blazes forth—more news—“Bernard Burzio—World Famous Acrobat” now appearing. Why the scene is gone! But I see again the same stage—a girl is dancing—Yes it is Evabelle Martin. The curtain falls. Before my startled eyes, I see words flashed on the screen, “See the best talking picture of the season, Man Hunt Modernized,’ starring Ruth Miller and Howard Ferguson. Play produced by John Krupey, Scenario by Emma Seda of the Henry Smith Studio.” My crystal is clear. I wanted to see more. But vain hope—I will seek another. I hear the whirl of motors. There is James Joseph ready to board an airplane. Tony Sticce is his pilot. Now I see a crowd of men and three other large planes whose pilots I also recognize as George Adamson, John Chenchick and Nick Matt. Someone asks, “Who are they and where are they going?” Winogene Mathias, who is seeing her husband off, (the crystal doesn’t tell me who he is) replies, “Why they’re the Pittsburgh Pirates with their manager, James Joseph, who are off to Florida for Spring training.” Thirty-seven SENIOR PROPHECY—(Continued) This time my optic shows me a large office and two downcast men whom I recognize as August Emette and Kenneth Denton, Kenneth is speaking—“What an insane thing to do Augie—design and sell a tennis ball that will never wear out. Oh! we are ruined! (He is speaking to Anna Pasquale, his secretary.) Send for Vogel, the superintendent.” Vogel is entering the office. They continue to converse. “Vogel, as you know we’re in a fix about these “Wear Ever Tennis Balls.” “What suggestion can you offer?” “Why Mr. Otto has designed a stylish new type of tennis shoe to be manufactured in various colors. By their manufacture, I believe you could recover and stabilize the business.” A scene of a different nature is revealed. I see a court room. The judge on the bench is none other than Harold Pierce. The lawyers are Robert Donnelly and Charles Chanon. A newspaper appears in my crystal ball. The headlines arrest my attention. “Cruciana, Illustrious Chemist Discovers New Element.” Names it “Utellum.” This scene vanishes. What a charming house! A sign by the gate—“Ye Ought to Come Inn.” The crystal permits me to enter. I see a beautiful tea room. Grace Kepple is the proprietress. I hear some of her patronesses conversing. “Yies, Jean Case is organist at the Debury Theatre in New York and Helma Hansen and Alice Hawks have accepted positions in the New Commercial College which Mary Marchiando founded.” “Why that is all news to me, Mildred. What ever happened to all the rest of our classmates?” “Did you know, Gertie, that Emma Hull has a law office in Greensburg?” “She does?” “What is Charlie Pierce doing?” “Oh! he is practicing medicine.” “Ethel Terrill and Viola Thompson are both married. Ethel lives in Chicago and Viola in Buffalo. “Evelyn Slaughenhaput is teaching kindergarten” “Did you know that Florence Martin, Margaret Klingensmith, Mae Shearer and Mary Hancuff own a large beauty salon? They give wonderful beauty treatments.” “They do? I must go there some time.” “Oh! I forgot to tell you that Ida Levin is traveling in Egypt. She took Margaret Earnest along as a traveling companion. Joe Poilek was re-elected coach at J. H. S. and the latest news I have is that Melva Lauffer has gone to Japan as a missionary.” “Sometimes, I wish that I had a career but keeping house seems to occupy all my time.” “I have thought the same.” I heard no more but concluded that Mildred Kealey and Gertie Brinker must both be happily married. A blur appears. Now it clears and shows me a familiar face. It is Jimmy Billups. Various designs and blue-prints scattered over his desk indicates to me that he is an architect. Cruelly the sight disappears and once more I look into blankness. Now a magnificent school building seems to be reflected in the sphere. It is the ideal—the dream of every teacher and student. First I see Edith Sands and Agnes Smith. Then I hear Edith’s voice, “I don’t mind working because it is pleasant here.” That’s the way I feel about it. The Valdesalice Construction Company did their work well.” “Yes, they certainly did. The landscaping is marvelous. Jean Zanarini did fine work.” Now the interior of the building is visible. Josephine Mull is seated in a large, comfortable chair issuing orders. She must be the Principal. Quickly the crystal pictures different classrooms. I recognize many of the teachers- Anise Duez is teaching French; Ethel Backus, Public Speaking; Gertrude Stump, Mathematics; Mary Rankin, General Science; Edythe Scott, English; Aurore Schaffer, Chemistry; Virginia Ash, Latin; Grace Bushyager, Domestic Science; Mildred Downing, Music; Esther Gross, Civics; Mary Zimmers, History; Mildred Kemerer, Typewriting; Roberta Riggs, Democracy; Mildred Schroyer, Bookkeeping; while in the gymnasium Garnette Shuster reigns supreme. Slowly the crystal clears. Thirty-eight r SENIOR PROPHEC Y—(Con tin nod) Now I see Irene Kealey and Vera Waits. Irene is at the piano playing a piece in which both seem deeply interested. I look more closely and read “Dreamy Days,” words by Vera Waits, music by Irene Kealey. Quickly the scene shifts. This scene is evidently the Pennsylvania State Legislature. Fred Hollendonner is presenting a bill favoring the four day week. Sarah Ferree interrupts, “I can’t see why that would better conditions.” My optics show me unpleasant dirty sections of a large city. There is a large building in the foreground bearing a bronze bespeaking its importance. It reads— “West End Recreation Center, Established by Mr. Glenn Stough in the year 1949.” I see the interior of the structure. What a large library and reading room! I recognize the following as librarians, Lucille Eberly, and Emma Flowers. In another part of the building I see Margaret Foster and Cora Loughner teaching little children games. In still another part of the building, I find Sam Sudia instructing boys and girls in the rudiments of aviation. Oh, now I have a pastoral scene! There’s Ted Serbro in person. He is engaged on his modern equipped farm. Now the crystal pictures a spotless hospital. There are two nurses whom I recognize—Louise Evans and Margaret Kealey. Already I have another scene. I see Katherine Reuter busily writing. The heading of her page bespeaks her employment for it reads. “The Private Life of William Shakespeare.” What’s this? A newspaper in the making? The crystal permits me to look in the editor’s office. The editor—Helen Sands is scanning the latest edition of her publication, “The Evening Star.” As she glances over it, I note the names of some of my classmates who are writing for the paper. Society Notes are written by Verna Hower, Advice to the Lovelorn—Maxine Greenawalt; Manners for All Occasions—Lois Thomas; Well Planned Meals—Margaret Downing; Your Complexion—Althea Steinbiser; Laugh Awhile—Roberta Matthews; and Parsian Styles —Ruth Keister. My crystal ball is clear but I hear some one speaking. This is station T. D. M. Chicago. The next feature will be a talk by Mr. Floyd Jordan on the subject, “The Young Man’s Spring Wardrobe.” The announcer’s voice belongs to Dorothy Fellows. Oh! here’s a quaint little antique shop owned by Pauline Bartusek and Genevieve Berzinski. They have some customers—Genevieve Thurling, Mary Matthews, and Elvira Gionghi. This crystal is certainly versatile. I see a dentist’s office. Clara Kellner, the dentist has been drilling unmercifully the teeth of her victim whom I recognize as Josephine Sershen. Clara is talking “Is it true Josephine, that you own a bakery?” “Only a third of a one. Mary Madyka and Wilma Rudy own the rest.” “Did you know Grant Wentzel is in California now, looking after his orange groves?” “Yes, and Lauretta Butler and Anna Benson have opened a shoe store. Kathryn Fink is managing a department store.” “I hadn’t heard that. Perhaps you knew that Ethel Mowry is a photographer. She has a studio in .Pittsburgh, and Kenneth Wurzell has a lawn mower factory in Greenville.” The conversation ends abruptly and my weary eyes must seek another sight. A large observatory and a great telescope greet my eyes. So Cecil Herbert has become a follower of astronomy, a star gazer. Well! My eyelids are drooping. I must see more pictures but I cannot. Sleep has its charms. My good little crystal ball has made me happy. I have learned about the “29’rs.” There are more scenes that I would like to see, but they need must wait for another day.

COSETTE GRARLE Broadcasting from the main auditorium of the Jeannette High School under the supervision of the “Class of 30.’’ Now by special request from the editors of the Senior Annual, Grandpa Time will give a brief review of the history of our present Junior Class—Grandpa Time— Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen- I am here to relate to you the history of one of the best and most popular classes in the scholastic history of Jeannette. The “Class of 30” was the largest family of Freshmen ever housed in the Jeannette High School. But when Euwer’s held their Window Contest this host of little Freshmen worked most industriously and carried off the first prize of One Hundred Dollars. Darryle Kifer, their class president, was quite proud of his assiduous flock. One evening after school they held a meeting in Miss Holdren’s room to choose their class colors. Baby blue and white were the colors selected. However, the year would not be complete without an entertainment from the baby class. So, on St. Patrick’s Day, these “green” Freshmen gave an amusing performance in Chapel which was a great success for their first attempt. Then there was the annual Senior Tea for the Freshmen Girls. Aside from these events, the year passed uneventfully. Sophomores now. They are permitted to join clubs and have parties. After electing President, Robert Trescher and his cabinet, directed by Miss Dickroeger, studies were resumed till they heard news of their first party. Everyone had a marvelous time and it was the main subject of conversation for weeks.' Then they gave a George Washington pageant which was also counted as another success. Nor were they lacking in athletics or scholarship for they made a splendid showing in both. Thus gloriously ended the Sophomore year- Now, Juniors! The studies are more difficult, the hours longer and at times tiresome but the Class of Thirty was not to be confined only to the hum-drum of school life. Their influential position now offers them a greater field of opportunities and achievements. These Juniors were not the type to permit opportunities to pass. Having found a most capable and able president in Robert Trescher last year, this popular executive was chosen to serve another term with Miss Steele as advisor. They immediately decided upon giving Shakespeare’s greatest play—“Hamlet.” Under the direction of Miss Steele this proved a great success. After many councils of war, the Junior rings were selected. Now they are quite proud and satisfied with their selection. But all was not to end here for our school entered several contests and the following obtained laurels for the Junior Class: Robert Trescher was the representative of the Jeannette High School in the county Oratorical Contest in which he took second place. Daniel Sutter represented the school in extemporaneous speaking and others rendered their musical talents. This fortunate class has yet to experience the outstanding social event of the year—the Junior Promenade. In the meantime, don’t forget to tune in with your televisions for this promises to be the crowning event of the Junior Year. Station J. H. S. signing off.

THE TREASURE SEEKERS OF ’31 ELIZABETH MADILL Oh, with what happy anticipations we, the class of 31, set sail for Treasure Island on the good ship “Freshmen” with Mr. Stump, the Admiral, and Miss Holdren as .Pilot. Jean Leyman was commissioned Commander. She was ably supported by her two lieutenants, Margaret Connor and Jeannette Sprucebank. Our green flag floated defiantly in the breeze, and after sailing through strange waters for several weeks we reached the island. We were an industrious crew of three hundred and thirty four strong. We began to search for the hidden treasures. Oh, yes! there were many to be found. Those who sought for the Pleasure Chest were the first to be rewarded. They found a chest filled to overflowing with many delightful things, among which was a great Circus. The expedition, led by Andy Lejcius and Dick Wurzell, who went in search for athletics found a chest filled with fame. The expedition which endeavored to find the Chest of Knowledge had to go farther and dig deeper than any of the others, but they were rewarded by finding the most valuable one of all. Unfortunately, when some saw that in order to get the treasure they had to work and dig; they became discouraged and returned home, but as a whole, the crew was industrious and eager to work. When spring arrived it grew very hot and the crew became so restless and homesick that the Admiral decided that it would be wise to return home. We had a large picnic before sailing and with a feeling of exuberant satisfaction we embarked for home as each and every one had found the chest for which he sought. After recuperating from our strenuous work of the winter, and seeing that our treasure was diminishing, we decided to take another voyage. Our Pilot resigned in order to guide another vessel, but we were fortunate in securing Miss Dickroeger for this responsible position. Jeannette Sprucebank and Margaret Connor had been such faithful and loyal officers that we saw the need of retaining them another year. The flagship, “Sophomore,” cast anchor and a crew of two hundred and fifty-five eagerly rushed for land. Soon the pleasure Expedition returned with a chest filled with a “Big Party” which they shared with all. The company which sought the Chest of Athletics was very successful and gained many victories. The group which sought the Chest of Knowledge attained still greater achievements in contests of orations, debates and extemporaneous speaking. Then too, various clubs such as the Science Club, the Classical Club and the Commerce Club admitted us to membership. We are still on the island industriously searching. We intend to return to this Treasure Island of J. H. S. each year until we have every bit of the affluent treasure that it contains.

D. Club THE LANTERN L GERTRUDE STUMP The “Lantern,” our High School paper, was founded in 1924. Through this paper the social, athletic and scholastic affairs of our school become known. Ethel Landgraff was the first Editor-in-Chief, under whose capable editorship the first paper was published. The Staff then consisted of twelve members, three from each class, but it has since been increased to eighteen. The “Lantern” is not the Staff’s paper, but it is the school’s paper. One very important thing that the students have always failed to do is to contribute material for our paper. Every year this opportunity has been given but too few have availed themselves of the opportunity. The sale of the paper is very important for its success. In former years the monthly subscriptions were emphasized more, but this year more stress has been placed on yearly subscriptions. The sale of papers has averaged monthly about three hundred copies. The remaining six hundred students either read their neighbor’s paper or were too economical to buy one. Those responsible for the success of this year’s paper are: Editor-in-Chief ...........

Mary Marchiando L« EMMA SEDA This marks the third anniversary of Le Cercle Francais. In the year 1927, the French students under the supervision of Miss Frey, former instructor of that course decided to organize a club for the purpose of learning more about the French language, its literature and French customs. Elizabeth Chanon was elected president. The following year, the French students with the aid of Miss Frey planned a float which was entered in the American Legion Parade on Armistice Day. The French Club was awarded second prize. The French Club is now under the supervision of Miss Floto, our new instructor, whom we find to be very capable. Charles Doberneck has succeeded Loretta Cook as president. Formerly, students having an average of ninety in French were qualified as members. This year a straight A average is required and the members are pleased to find quite a number of Juniors who will become the future members. At our “premiere seance” the following officers were elected: Charles Doberneck ................................................ President Irene Kealey ............................................. Vice President Jean Case ........................................................ Secretaire Aurore Schaffer .......................1.......................... Tresorier Mademoiselle Floto announced that all conversation must be “en francais, s’il vous plait.” That was quite a joke until we had serious business to transact; then we could not express ourselves so well. We had many interesting meetings. We repeated “Le Sermont de Fidelite,” sang La Marseillaise” and other songs, and recited French poems and plays. Un jour we decided to have a party. Les professeurs francais et les etudiants francais were invited. The French program was tres interessant et nous nous sommes bien amuses. It is the hope of the present members that the club will be even more successful than it has been in the past. French Club members: E. Backus, P. Bartusek, M. Beamer, G. Brinker, J. Case, A. Duez, L.

Fifty-nine FRANK CRUCIANA The Priestly Science Club was organized in 1920 by Mr. Longanecker, who is now Assistant Superintendent of Green County, Pennsylvania. This club was formed by uniting the “Photography” “Radio” and Nature Study Clubs. In 1925 Mr. J. Maclay of the Department of Chemistry took over the official duties of sponsoring the club and this year Mr. F. Albright of the Physics Department became the advisor. The club met early in 1928 and elected the following officers: President ............................................... Frank Cruciana Vice President ............................................. Clara Kellner Secretary and Treasurer ............................... Bruno Valdesalice The club has always been noted for its interesting and worthwhile programs given at the regular meetings. This year the members seem to have taken a dramatic turn of mind. At the open meeting for the pledges, the Charter Members presented an exceedingly humorous burlesque, entitled, “Advanced Chemistry.” With the co-operation of all the members, the club is working on several other plays, one of which is entitled, “A Night In Alchemy.” The Priestley Science Club as its name suggests fosters an interest in Scientific matters, particularly in those branches relating to Physics and Chemistry, therefore all members must be carrying one of these branches in their school course. Following the custom of other years the Science Club sponsored a movie, “Black Pirate,” starring Douglas Fairbanks. The proceeds from that show are to be used to purchase a moving picture machine, for the purpose of demonstrating experiments. The Charter members wish to compliment the new members on their gentlemanly attitude toward the difficult initiation proceedings of last February and especially on their regularity of attending the meetings. The following is an outline of a typical progarm of the organization: Two or more current articles Three Chemical Demonstrations An outside speaker Two Physics demonstrations A Biography of a Scientist A Scientific article dramatized Mystery feature (unannounced) Current happenings in the Scientific World THE PROGRESSIVE SCIENCE CLUB HARRY SANDSON The Junior Science Club was organized in 1927 under the supervision of Mr. Maclay to whom the club owes its existence. A meeting of all eligible Sophomores was held. The club was organized, officers were elected and the name Progressive Science Club was chosen. At the beginning of the 1928-29 term, officers were elected and the initiation of new members immediately followed. Next plans were made for the regular monthly meetings. These meetings were under the capable supervision of Mr. McClean who made them enjoyable and interesting in every way. The program usually consisted of the following: A Biography, An Outside Speaker, Biological experiment, Short Story, Scientific Talk, Nature Study and Short Quiz. On February 7 and 8 a motion picture, “The Winning of Barbara Worth” was held in the High School auditorium and the proceeds of this show were used to defray expenses of the Biology students for the annual trip to Pittsburgh. The students visited the Museum and the Zoo and all reported a very pleasant trip.

The moving picture given by the club greatly strengthened our financial standing. The greatest event of the year was our trip to Pittsburgh, where we visited the Carnegie Museum, the Rieck-McJunkin plant and the H. J. Heinz Company. We all enjoyed the trip greatly and it was of much educational value. The club paid half the expense of carrying the participants in the County Commercial Contest to New Kensington, where many of those from J. H. S. won first, second, or third place. All the club’s achievements of that successful year were due to the skillful supervision of our advisor, Miss Schall. We have not been so active this year, because the first meeting: of the club was not called until January. Our advisor has been kept so busy with her other work that it was doubtful whether the club activities would be resumed at all. At our second meeting about thirty new members were received into the club. A very splendid program was furnished by the old members. Despite the difficulty in getting the club to function, we hope to maintain the success of former years by making the remaining meetings count. We are now looking ahead to the club’s annual event, the party, and hope it will be as enjoyable as the one held last year. OFFICERS President, Mary Marchiando; Vice President, Louis Cima; Secretary, Mildred Schroyer; Treasurer, Helen Sands. Sixty-two THE CLASSICAL CLUE 1 CHARLES DOBERNECK Once more we have completed a school year full of very interesting events. The Classical Club of 1928-29 must not and cannot escape its full share of honors. From a supposedly dry language, we, of the Classical Club, have transformed the charms of Latin far beyond our previous thoughts. During our years of Latin study, we have learned to know and understand Caesar, Cicero and Virgil. At the meetings held throughout the year, we have often made the lives and works of these men take a prominent part in the programs. In October, the members remaining from last year’s club, reorganized and elected officers. Shortly afterward, the appointed committees prepared a very fine and most eventful initiation program. Many applications were received, but only twenty-two candidates had the necessary qualifications for membership. Terrible, indeed, were the torments that these poor candidates received, when on the evening of November 5, they were initiated into our fold. Yet they declare that “the reward was worth the effort.” From that day on, the members all cooperated in making the Classical Club one of the most outstanding, if not the most outstanding club in the school. President Charles Doberneck Vice President .....................................................Carter Harrer Secretary ...................................................Virginia Ash Treasurer .......................................................Josephine Mull THE D. O. D. CLUB EVABEiLLE MARTIN Last Fall the Senior girls, following the custom of former years, met and organized what is known as the D. O. D. Club, a title which has aroused quite a bit of curiosity among the Senior boys. Last November the girls met in Room 21. The meeting was called to order by Josephine Mull who acted as temporary chairman. Officers were elected and then our advisor, Miss Hutchinson, gave a short talk to the members stating the chief aim of the Club which was to create a more friendly spirit among the Senior girls. As the Freshmen Girls usually look upon us as their Big Sisters we have attempted to prove this by entertaining them at a Tea, which was given in November. Due to the great number of Freshmen girls this year it was necessary to divide them into two groups, thus holding a Tea on two different afternoons. On this occasion most of the Senior Girls were given opportunity to display their artistic skill in decorating, art in making favors and good judgment in planning a tasty lunch for their guests, the Freshmen Girls. The Club members also prepared a musical program for Chapel. This proved to be very successful. It is whispered that they are planning something more before leaving J. H. S. OFFICERS President, Evabelle Martin; Vice President, Mary Marchiando; Secretary, Margaret Beamer; Treasurer, Edith Sands. A FEELING There’s a feeling down deep in each of our hearts, A feeling of sorrow and woe; A feeling we’ll have but once in our lives, A feeling we only can know. For now, we are parting from all we hold dear, From teachers, from classmates and all, For now in this school, our duties are o’er; The voice of ambition does call. Four years we have spent here together, Four years of work and of play, Each striving to do what he learned here, Each doing his best every day. Now out in the world we must wander, Each following his star from afar, Till at last each has earned his reward Then, the work of our lives will be o’er. Gertrude Brinker ’29 HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA MILDRED DOWNING Under the able direction of Miss Anna Kressler our orchestra has greatly improved. Among its members are musicians who have very promising musical abilities. Although eight of our members will be lost through graduation we know that their places will be filled by other capable members of the High School. Our Orchestra has played for the Lyceum Courses held in our auditorium for the Class Play, for Commencement, Class Day Exercises, and for entertainment in Chapel. It also played in the contest which was held April 19, 1929. The following members of the orchestra were selected to represent our school in the County Contests: Ruth Tanner, Violin; Vaughn Monroe, trumpet; Margaret Beamer, Flute. On April 30, Vaughn Monroe entered the County Contest which was held at Latrobe. He brought home the first honor for the wind instruments, the trumpet. On the same evening, Margaret Beamer entered the contest, bringing back second honor for the wind instruments, the flute. Vaughn Monroe entered the Contest of Western Pennsylvania, on May 9, which was held at Washington, Pa. He again brought home first honor for the trumpet solo. Vaughn will compete for State Championship May 24 at Harrisburg, Pa. On May 2, Ruth Tanner entered the County Contest held at Arnold. She won honorable mention in her violin solo. The Orchestra entered the County Contest which was held in the Greensburg High School auditorium on April 17, 1929. Our High School should be proud of our musicians. The following is a list of orchestra members: Violins Virginia Ash Mary Beezer Leah Bleiberg Maxine Caddy Albert Caruso Lorris Di Diana Grace Downing Charles Frederick Sarah Ferree Alex Gordon Robert Henry Sixty-six Edward Ivratovil Esther Levine Vincent Maselli Elizabeth Pittner Baptiste Raviarte Gerald Stough Ruth Tanner Grant Wentzell Viola Vere Billups Trumpet Vaughn Monroe Edgar Schaefer Flute Margaret Beamer Clarinet Frank Bartholemy Constantine Hylwa Dan Orange Baritone Americus De Amato Piano Marian Baughman Mildred Downing Bass Granville Bushyager Drums Alan Beamer r THE JAZZ ORCHESTRA ALAN BEAMER Jeannette High School has a Jazz Orchestra of which the entire school should be proud. The Orchestra was organized four years ago under the supervision of Warren L. Stroud who is at present the director and manager of the Orchestra. The orchestra is composed of the best musicians of the High School, among these are: Warren Stroud Member of Faculty Director Matthew Greenberg Senior Saxaphone Carl Seiffert Sophomore Banjo Vaughn Monroe Senior Trumpet Alan Beamer Senior T raps William Heasley Senior Pianist Willis Dewalt Junior Saxaphone Edward Kratovil Sophomore Violin Edgar Schaffer Junior Trumpet During the past year the Orchestra has played for the High School dances and has taken a prominent part in the School Concert and the Chapel programs. The Orchestra will lose four members through graduation, but we hope there will be as peppy a Jazz Orchestra next year as there has been in the past. kr- Sixty-seven THE GLEE CLUB SARAH A. FERREE The Class of “29” is proud to say that the Glee Club of this year is among the finest if not the best, in the history of our school. There are fifty-four members in the concert chorus and approximately thirty in the contest chorus! Both of these are made up of mixed voices. All classes are well represented. Due to the fine leadership of Miss Anna M. Kressler and the hearty co-operation of each member we have succeeded in making this club one of the outstanding organizations of J. H. S- We, the class of 1929, will long remember the Glee Club of Jeannette High School and we hope that the choruses of the future will retain this high standing and forever try to reach the goal, “To be perfect.” MEMBERS Evelyn Donnelly Lucille Stump Ida Criner Agnes Smith Irene Miller Jean Leyman Esther Levine Jeannette Antonie Dorothy Krupar Inez Henderson Eleanor Peden Geraldine Ticken Cosette Grable May Shearer Lillian Darr Vera Waits Gertrude Stump Evabelle Martin Verna Hower Katherine Fink Bertha Beers Sarah Ferree Esther Adler Betty Music Mildred Downing Delson Wilson Grace Downing Thomas McCormick Elizabeth McCabe John Longo Dorothy Pryts Robert Lutz Vivian Bomer George Coats Marie Ticken Robert Trescher Sixty-eight Dan Sutter Edgar Kemerer Russel Heasley Fred Deluzio Becker Cline Vaughn Monroe Gerald Terrill James Billups Charles Chanon Frank Cruciana Howard Ferguson Floyd Jordan Dominic DiGregory Harold Campbell Joseph Danton Henry Ashbaugh William Greenawalt Lester Brown r HIGH SCHOOL BAND VAUGHN MONROE This past year has seen a further development of our High School Band. Several weeks after school began the band started practicing for the football games. Diligent practice, under the Leadership of Mr. Guest, soon molded them into fine playing and marching form. The Band went on all the trips with the football team. By action of the School Athletic Board the two year members were awarded letters. This award has stimulated interest in the organization and enabled them to do better work. Mr. Boettner has taken a great interest in the band and is helping them accomplish their aims. Without a doubt, the band will progress and advance, and will be one of the schools best assets for development of School Music. Leader, Mr. Guest. MEMBERS c. Henry V. Monroe C. Hilwa F.

The students of Jeannette High School are particularly fortunate in this respect and with the aid of our music supervisor, Miss Kressler, a chorus of mixed voices has been brought together for chorus and concert work. This was arranged in response to an appeal from the patrons, for a demonstration of the value of time spent in music instruction in the schools. Building programs for public presentation is an art in a class with writing plays and building up lectures. It requires creative instinct and imagination to arrange program numbers or features for a social event, to please a mixed audience. With this in view, Miss Kressler planned a varied program for a combined musical concert which was held in the High School auditorium on Friday evening, April li). A pleasing program of vocal and instrumental music and readings was presented to an appreciative audience. At this time, “Barbara Frietchie,” a patriotic ballad by Whittier, arranged to music by Jules Jordan, was presented together with “The Kerry Dance,” and “To Thee Oh Country.” Other numbers on the program were: Trunpet solo, “Calvary,” Edger Shaeffer, reading “Pygmalion and Galatea”, Vera Waits, vocal solo, “In the Time of Roses,” Harold Campbell. The concert is a revival of an annual event which was presented by the High School until two years ago. On Friday evening, April 29th, the chorus was entered in the regional chorus contest held' at Irwin, at which time, second place was awarded our school. The chorus entered the County Contest held at Monessen, May 17.

Sixty-nine A FEW OF US JEANNETTE HICH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM THE FOOTBALL CAMP JOHN KRUPEY The Jeannette High School Football camp was situated at Wesco. We left our High School at approximately 2:30 o’clock on Sunday afternoon. The trip to Camp Wesco was made by bus and private cars. The squad arrived at Wasco in time for dinner and w; certainly ate a hearty -meal. Then we were assigned to cabins which were to be the horn s of the squad, for the following week. After arranging our bunks we strolled around and gave the camp the “once over.” Instead of tents, cabins were built in order to make more comfortable quarters. The cabins were opened around the top and enclosed by a screen which kept out the insects. The routine for the week was as follows: At seven o’clock we made a dash for the pool. It looked inviting, but some of the boys fearing to brave the ice cold water, washed at the overflow. At 7:30, we had breakfast which was followed by a rest period. Our practice session began at 9:30 and ended at 11:30. W-: had lunch at 12:00, followed by the usual rest period, with practice sessions from 2:30 to 4:30. Dinner was served at 5:00. The rest of the evening was spent by the boys just as they wished. Many played baseball. The squad played the coaches and needless to say the coaches were always defeated. A few energetic boys played golf but since we had a rough course the supply of golf balls was soon exhausted and the game turned out to be “find the button.” , The coaches were Joseph Harrick, T. McMillan, Getto and Minkel, while our trainer was Dick Albright. On Wednesday, Steve Harrick, assistant coach of West Virginia, visited us. We were honored and feel “chesty” albout it and even did some boasting later. Thursday was visitors day and many of our parents and friends came to visit us. Sam Feld r was especially welcome—he brought us fifteen gallons of ice cream, and did we appreciate it? In' the evening the J. H. S. band arrived and played a few selections which we all enjoyed. . The following day and Saturday passed quickly. On Saturday evening the squad embarked for home. Everyone was sorry to leave, but many look forward already to next summer and football camp. The- Seniors could not be so hopeful, however, for them it was the last time, but they will never forget the good time they had. Under the direction of our two n w coqches, Jeannette Hi has come through another successful season. Mr. Harrick, successor to Mr. Jordan, built up a line that was invincible throughout the season. Many tricks were shown us by our backfield coach who hails from Wilkinsburg. Perry and East Huntingdon fell easy victims. The scores were 65 to 6 and 51 to 0, respectively. Then came our first game away from horn . We traveled to Uniontown with hopes of winning, but our hopes gradually faded in the first half. Something was lacking, but that something finally arrived, the student body, and Uniontown was soon vanquished with a final score of 20-7. Peabody and Bellevue also fell easy victims with scores of 26-0; 46-0- The Red and Blue Machine reached the height of perfection and working in a clock-like manner, we annihilated ths- German Township squad with a final score of 73-0. Next we prepared for our first big game which was with Beaver Falls. We traveled to Rochester on Friday. Saturday brought miserable weather. Not being able to function properly the Red and Blue Machine received its first defeat in four years at the hands of the powerful Orange and Black eleven with a final score of 12-0. Not to be outdone by this deft at we rallied, vanquishing Youngwood and Hurst with scores of 19-0 and 13-0. Winning the latter game we were able to claim the Championship of Westmoreland County. The town of Jeannette was in a state of turmoil. Th: cause was the approaching game with Washington High School. On Thanksgiving Day a colorful throng of students and townsfolk assembled to witness the most thrilling game of the season. Having defeated Washington the previous year, we knew that they were still nursing that bitter defeat. The gam proved to be the most interesting of the year, and Washington was sadly def ated by a 13-7 score. For true sportsmanship, Washington proved their spirit by cheering the Red and Blue squad after a bitter defeat. This proved to be another good s ason for Jeannette Hi, and expressing our thanks to our coaches Mr. Harrick and Mr. McMillin we wish them luck in the years THE FOOTBALL SEASON OF 1928 JOE POILEK to come. CHEER LEADERS ADDA EATON Rah! Jeannette! Here we are Gang! Let’s give a big Rip Roar. Are you ready? Let’s go!— Thus, the cheerleaders continued through the year. There were nineteen students who were tried out for cheerleaders. In the final tryout there were three boys and two girls chosen. They were Robert Trescher, head cheerleader, Edward Marion, Janies Joseph, Ruth Schroek and Adda Eaton. The group got right down to work to make the cheering squad of 28-29 term the best in the school history. They had their regular practices, working out motions and positions for different yells. They also planned things of interest for the cheer-practices, which were held once a week, to arouse the school spirit. Usually the cheerleaders led a large snake parade, made up of the students of the High school, on the Friday night before a big game. The students also paraded down to the field led by the High School Band before each game. The Washington game especially is to be remembered. After our team defeated their opponents with a score of 20-7 the Jeannette students paraded up Clay Avenue with the band and the cheerleaders in the lead. It was a glorious victory. The cheerleaders and the band were called out to the rescue of our baskeball team to practically all the games. Before I sign off, I want to thank the student body in behalf of the cheerleaders for their support this season. leventy-four J. H. S. 1925 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH 1929 Seventy-five ............... OUR ALL AMERICAN BOYS’ BASKETBALL Tony Sticce Tin Jeannette High School basketball team finished one of the most successful seasons. ur new coach, Blair McMillan, did not have a hard time in finding n good combination because only two players were lost by graduation last year, namely Ikierzbaclier and Witalis. Working very hard, lie soon found a good team. The season started by defeating the Alumni and other high class teams, but these were only practice games. Our first league game was lost by one point, the score being ID-18. Later. Jeannette began to win a few games, first beating (Jreensburg. At the middle of the season. Jeannette did not fair so well because they began losing game after game. Near the end of the season, Jeannette again started on the right road by winning a few games, but it proved to be too late to have any chance to increase our standing in tin W. I . I. A. L. After the league games were over. Jeannette won two very interesting post-S( ason games from our rival Xorwin. Jeannette High also entered the Westmoreland County Tournament which was held at (Jreensburg. Although picked as a team that would not have a chance, the Jeannette team proved their worth by winning the tournament and thus being crowned champions of Westmoreland County. No one but tin players knew that they could win and they won by having that fighting spirit and that determination to win. Jeannette had to d«feat Last Huntingdon on Friday. March 1. and on Saturday. March 2, we defeated such teams as New Kensington, Scott dale and (Jreensburg in order to win the tournament. All these games were hard fought from l eginning to end. the winner being in doubt until the final whittle blew. Jeannette High School received a trophy which can be held for one year, and each player received a gold basketball for winning the championship. Five players will be lost by graduation, namely. Joe Poilek. Fred HoTlendonner. Matthew (Jnenberg. John Baughman ami Tony Sticce. But we hope that Jeannette High School will have a successful team next year. LKA(ilE GAMES J. H.

After a few weeks of diligent training, a squad was selected by our able coach, whereby she could instruct the girls in a more efficient manner. The squad reported regularly for practice and after much sacrifice, success crowned our efforts —we had a winning team, winning 10 games and losing 3. Ten girls will receive letters this year. They are McCue, Naples, G. Ticken, Smith, Baughman, Roberts, Klingensmith, Flowers, M. Ticken and Shuster. The prospects for a strong team next year are quite favorable even though five girls will be lost by graduation. Much credit is due to Miss Powell who coached our team with great interest and care. A summary of our season’s games is as follows: Rraddock 26 Jeannette 22 East Huntingdon 21 Jeannette 28 Trafford City 26 Jeannette 28 West Newton 11 Jeannette 22 Turtle Creek 14 Jeannette 31 Braddock 24 Jeannette 21 West Newton 8 Jeannette 18 Turtle Creek 15 Jeannette 20 East Huntingdon 22 Jeannette 17 Norwin 3 Jeannette 13 Norwin 15 Jeannette 24 Greensburg 0 Jeannette 2 Forfeit Jeannette 2 • 5 Seventy-seven ----- —— — GIRLS ’ INTERCLASS BASKETBALL MARIAN BAUGHMAN Interclass basketball aroused much interest and rivalry among the classes this year. Several thrilling and exciting games were witnessed by the students, especially between the Senior Girls and Junior Girls. The Seniors carried away first place with high honors as usual and the Juniors secured second place. Next came the Sophomores and last our Freshmen. Our Senior team was captained by Marian Baughman. Due to the coaching by Miss Egan, a member of the faculty, and the fact that the team contained five letter girls who had been playing varsity basketball for their three preceding years of high school, they were expected to be the winners of the series. During their four years of high school, they have never tasted defeat at the hands of another class. The Juniors, captained by Nancy Pope and coached by Mr. Manifold, a member of the faculty, made a good showing, coming in second. It is probable they will be the winners of next year’s series unless the new Freshmen Class contains some stars among their vast numbers. The Sophomores, who were captained by Lucille Stump and coached by Miss Powell, physical instructor, did considerably well considering the inexperience of their players. The Freshmen were captained by Helen McCue and coached by Gamette Shuster, a member of the Senior Class. Even though the Freshmen came last in the series, they gave the other classes a scare in several of the games. The games were held at the noon hour in the gymnasium and the students showed more enthusiasm this year than in any of the previous years. The games were refereed by a member of the faculty or a student of a different class than the teams playing. The Senior girls on the varsity, who will be graduated soon, deserve much praise for their ability in maintaining their well earned success. The Seniors were claimed as Inter-class Champions after a series of basketball games that were interesting to all who attended. During the past season the fever of Inter-class basketball was high and there was plenty of reason for it being so. The various classes 'did their best to make a good showing in the series because Coach McMiUin, of the varsity, was attending all of the games to look over material for the J. H. S. Varsity squad. The games were exceptionally well attended this year, each class bringing a group of rooters. They were played at noon and all who had to bring their lunch went to the games. Also many more brought their lunch so as to be able to see the games. The Senior boys, with practically the same team that won the series last year, came through once more undefeated. They showed good team work, which was due to the coaching of Mr. Manifold. Football men were ineligible as in former years, and this gave many more of the classmen a chance to prove their basketball skill. These Interclass games have been creating more interest each year and we hope the interest and enthusiasm will continue in years to come. BOYS’ INTER CLASS BASKETBALL FRED HOLLENDONNER Seventy-eight TRA CK JAMES JOSEPH The spring of 1928 closed the second successful season since the organization of Track in the Jeannette High School. Under the care of Coach Lloyd Jordan, Jeannette finished third at the annual Track and Field Meet held at Latrobe, May 30, 1928. There were six contestants from Jeannette who placed in the meet, they were Theodore Witalis, Joseph Poilek, Ellsworth Kifer, George Kifer, Glenn Elliott, and Alan Beamer. These six men accumulated a total of 17 points. There were two very exciting events in the meet; the first happening in the 220 yard dash. Alan Beamer who entered in this race ran perfectly to fifth place, just five yards behind the leader who happened to be from Greensburg. The second exciting event was the relay. There were five county contestants in this relay and each had had experience in relay running except Jeannette. We came in third in a most thrilling finish. Ellsworth Kifer, anchor man of our relay team lost his right shoe 100 yards from the tape, but despite the fact that the cinders cut his feet he finished the race in great style. Joe Poileck who was captain of the Jeannette football team accumulated a total of eight points and was given third high score of the meet. He was placed third in the discus and first in the javelin. His heave of the discus was one hundred three feet and he then immediately broke the county record in the javelin. The record of 147 feet 7.25 inches was shattered by Poilek on his first throw which was not beaten during the rest of the day. This throw is still the county record and fell 151 feet away from the heave line. Jeannette also took part in the annual Pitt and Carnegie Tech Track and Field Meets early in the season where they received plenty of experience at the hands of defeat. There is a possibility of Jeannette having another successful Track team if the Jeannette boys respond to the call of the cinders. There is plenty of material such as Burzio, Poilek, Onder, Love, Elliott, Beamer and a few others who would be very good track men if they report for spring training. With the men mentioned above and a few others, Jeannette may expect to be County Champions in Track as well as in Football and Basketball during the past season. s Seventy-nine JUST FOR FUN SENIOR ALPHABET ETHEL BACKUS MARY RANKIN ETHEL TERRILL George Adamson ....G.A.....

S. football warriors was held at the Greensburg Country Club, January 16, 1929. This banquet was sponsored by the J. H. S. Athletic Association. It marked the closing of another gallant and glorious year of remarkable sportsmanship for J. H. S. The evening began with a delightful dinner which was cherished 6y each boy. The boys were entertained by vocal and instrumental numbers. As guests to the banquet the J. H. S. Band, cheer leaders and student managers attended and all reported a delightful evening. In a short while after arrival, each boy took his place at the dining tables and it was then that the waitresses shifted into high and stepped on the gas. The meal proceeded smoothly until hot crossed buns arrived on the scene. At this period of the dinner, the boys all showed their tactics of camp life which they seemed not to have forgotten. All forms of etiquette were discarded in an effort to get a hot crossed bun. At the close of the dinner the boys were entertained by the following speakers: Mr. Getto, a former star of J. H. S.; Mr. Patterson, a member of the Athletic Association; Mr. McMillin, Assistant coach of the J. H. S. squad; Dr. Kern, also a member of the Athletic Association and Toastmaster of the Banquet; and Mr. Harrick, coach of the gallant fighting machine. The boys received praise for their good co-operation during the season and many valuable points on the future of a boys’ life. Near the close of the banquet, Joseph Poilek, Captain of the squad of “28.” presented Mr. Harrick and Mr. McMillin each a ring as a gift from the squad. Mr. Harrick brought the banquet to a close after he had mentioned the letter men and gave them the privilege to vote for a Captain of the squad of “29.” John Love was selected to lead the fighting machine of young warriors through the 1929 season of football. Thus another page in the history of J. H. S. football was turned and the evening ended with every boy happy. Having finished a very successful season, the Jeannette High School Basket-ters were treated in a very pleasing way. Different from other years, in which they held banquets, coaches, Harrick and McMillin, took the squad to see a very good show at the Manos Theatre. We enjoyed the picture very much. It was entitled “Weary River” starring Richard Barthelmess. After the show we were taken to Sam Felder’s where we were given a good luncheon. The boys left one by one saying they had enjoyed the evening very much. BOYS9 BASKETBALL TREAT TONY STICCE Eighty-six GLENN STOUGH Jeannette entered the Inter-Scholastic Debating Contest this year. It had been quite a few years since our school had had a debating team. Tryouts for the team were held during the early part of February. From the group responding seven were selected to uphold the colors and honor of Jeannette High School. Preparation, which means much work and practice, was then started and continued for one month. The Negative team “broke the ice” on Friday, March the twenty-second. They debated and lost to the Affirmative team from Herminie. They then debated Parnassus, Arnold and Norwin in the order named. They defeated Parnassus, then lost to Arnold, and emerged victorious in a great debate with our rival, Norwin. The Affirmative team received their “baptism in fire” at Parnassus on Tuesday, April the second. They debated and defeated Parnassus, Sewickley, and Arnold in the order named. They lost their final inter-high school de bate to Norwin who had held the State championship for the past year. At the close of the season a debate between the local Affirmative and Negative teams was held in Chapel. The Affirmative team was victorious after a very close debate. As a reward a five dollar gold piece was handed to each member of the Affirmative team. The Negative side was upheld by Harold Pierce, Americus DeAmato, and James Billups as first Speakers and Charles Doberneck as second Speaker. The Speakers on the Affirmative side were Glenn Stough, Robert Trescher and Margaret Connor. The Negative lost two debates and the Affirmative lost one giving a grand total of five victories against three defeats. Miss Suter, Miss Stauffer, and Miss Lobody formed a very able and competent group of coaches. It was their great aid that kept the team in the running until the final debate. The team takes this opportunity of expressing their sincerest thanks and appreciation for the service they rendered. Eighty-seven r------ THE PROM MARGARET DAVIS At last! The gala day which we as Juniors had patiently awaited finally arrived. Everybody floated around school on wings, as it were. Questions like these could be heard almost anywhere one could see a Junior, “What are you going to wear ? Who are you going with ? Whose car are you going in ? Where are you going after the dance?” These and many more accompanied by an occasional giggle or some other burst of excitement could be heard all day. Oh, it was the great day in our lives!! So the evening of May 25, 1928 turned out just as though it had been made to order. To see these young men and women alighting from cars and entering the doors of the Country Club was a sight worth seeing. Inside, all was happy and gay; laughter seemed the main diversion. Gowns of all shades mingled with the dark suits of the men who were hurrying here and there getting their dance programs filled. At ten o’clock the orchestra struck up the first bars for the grand march which was lead by our class president Harold Pierce and his partner, Virginia Griffith. Favors were given which were much appreciated by everyone present. After this, dancing began and lasted until one o’clock. It was indeed one of the best Promenades ever given. The committee consisted of Harold Pierce, John Minkel, Fred Hollendonner, Marian Baughman, Ruth Miller and Josephine Mull. Members of the school board acted as chaperons.

Vaughn Monroe Setting: The living room in “Dad” Bence’s home in a small New Jersey town about sixty miles from New York City. “Kempy” is a young plumber architect who has come to the Bence home to fix the water pipes. While there he meets the badly spoiled eldest daughter “Kate.” “Kate” in a fit of pique at “Duke” Merrill, a successful young business man whom her family wants her to marry, proposes to “Kempy” just because she finds out that he has read her book and has sworn to marry the authoress. After the marriage “Kempy” finds himself in love with Ruth, the youngest daughter. In the unraveling of this tangle “Duke” Merrill must use diplomacy since his aim is to marry Kate. This purpose he finally achieves much to the delight of “Ma” and “Pa” Bence.
