Q 'T , 'nilyj BLUE BANNER 1937 Class Will We, the Class of 1937, being, we sincerely hope, of sound mind and perfect under- standing fwhich is sometimes doubtfnlj cannot leave our high school without making public and declaring the following to be our last will and testament: To the Faculty : We leave behind the remembrance of the qualities and the brilliancy of our class and the permission to praise these qualities to future classes. To the Juniors: We give and bequeath the outstanding scholastic records which we, the class of 1937, have so ably maintained. Individual Bequests: VVe leave Hazel Dinklocker's unforgettable personality to Jane Duukleberger. Paul Dutchak's undiscovered literary ability to Charles Anoia. Benny Pearl's quietness we give to John Poremba. 'We leave to the entire Junior Class all the empty desks to be filled with torn ponies. Anthony Lelevich, hopefully, leaves his cool head to Kayo Ponitoski. To the future Miss America, we bequeath the carefully coiffured hair of Pearl Basalay, Anna Testi's expressive eyes, Dorothy Wallen's classic nose. Beatrice Bagdonas' bee stung lips, Irene Brosh's graceful carriage, and Helen Peffer's vivacious air. Forman, Pearl and Marateck bestow upon any future debating team that may arise in K. H. S. their ability to argue on either side of any given question. Frankie Cannizzaro's grin we leave to brighten cloudy days. Russel Stretch', Solovey and Joseph Waseavage wish to divide among four of the shortest freshmen, their towering height. The Diak and Radzai combination leave to Freddie Avellino their way with the girls. Francis Shelinski bequeaths his pearly white teeth to Sannny Brazinski. We give to Johnny Toth the mathematical ability of Mary Barret. To the Sophomores, we leave our privilege of strutting through the corridors after the bell has rung. Vincent Kurland gives his speed on the cinder track to Ed. Stavinsky. Borden Pello's manly voice we bequeath to Ralph Miriello and Sammy Koziar. To the under classes, as a whole, we leaveithe right to solve the following perplex- ing problems: 1. How to find a seat at the basketball games after arriving late. 2. Who will take our place after we are gone? We, the members of the Senior Class do sign, seal, and deliver this document to our Attorneys and in the presence of Vl'itncsses, this first day of June, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-seven, A. D. In witness thereof, we hereby inscribe our hand and seal. THE CLASS OF 1937. Page Nineteen BLUE BANNER 1937 sz unior Class The Senior Class wishes to present to you, their worthy successors, the Junior Class, a class that has proven itself really worthy to follow in our footsteps. The Juniors are a highly talented group, composed of students who believe in working as a unit in every class activity. This teamwork, on their part, has crowned every effort with success. Their newspaper, the Blue Blah-ner, has become highly regarded as a news organ and its date of issue is eagerly looked forward to by the entire student body. In the line of social activity, they sponsored a Valentine Dance that attracted the younger set from the entire surrounding region. Upon their ow11 initiative they succeeded in financing an educational trip to the State Capitol at Har- risburg. In every club and team we find a ranking Junior. In the classroom they have ably maintained a standard of effort that bids fair to produce a welcome addition to the citizenry of our community. Their proven success tends to lighten our sadness as we prepare to leave our be- loved high school for we know that we leave behind us a capable successor who will raise our high school standards higher. As we bring to a close our many plaudits we add a word of caution lest the Junior heads be turned. Remember, Juniors, the wise old saying: Actions speak IOIIKICI' than wordsf, VVith these words of praise and caution we wish y0l a pleasant and successful completion of your school carecr. ,' af x Page Twenty .sw BLUE BANNER 1937 4 Sophomore Class Hurrah! At last school has begun! Large numbers of Sophomores-to-be gather in the assembly room. Raised from their previous lowly freshman state to the lordly dignity of the Sophomore, they immediately enter into the job of impressing their successors with more or less success. An energetic class, loaded with zeal and enthusiasm, they have succeeded in carry- ing their banner to the front, both seholastieally and athletically, and thereby sccurely placing themselves in the forefront of all activities. Their attempts toward organized effort were curtailed through circumstances over which they had little control but with their coming Junior year, we predict great things along all fronts. In the line of athletic endeavor. the Sophomores were ably represented by Ralph Miriello, Robert Balleut. Stephen Phillipovich, Joseph Pczclski, Samuel Brazinsky, Francis VVydan, Earl Reese, Edward Stavinsky, Harry Trefsgar, Alfred Koharski, Sammy Koziar and others. In the field of education, the Sophomores ranked numerically high on the roll of honor. Their able work, also, resulted in the collection and preparation of a group of biological charts and models that will long stand as an incentive for future classes. Yve hope their Sophomoric efforts will continue, and we extend to them our best wishes for their future success. f z ...H Q V, ,Q 'fs B sf up Page Twenty-one l BLUE BANNER 1937 reshman lass Boom! Bang! lVhat in the world is coming? VVe might have known itfthe future supporters of Higl1er Education, chattering and laughing, march into sight. Ding-a-ling! The bell! The crowd no longer chattered, but they could not con- ceal their eagerness as they trooped into the YVilson Building, eighty-seven strong, ready to be acknowledged as Freshmen. And acknowledged they were, for they received all the initiations usually accorded to Freshmen. But they kept their chins up and soon became accepted as school mates by the upper elassmen. The Freshmen have heartily participated in all school activities and their co-opera- tion has been duly appreciated by the other classes. They acquired the honor of being the Hrst Freshman Class to enter our new High School building when they were transferred to the new Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial High School, immediately following the Christmas holidays.

Page Twenty-nine BLUE BANNER 1937 l SENIOR OPERETTA H he ucky ade VIIIE STORY VVhcn Mr. Courtney and his daughter return home to The Beechesi' from a season in New York, they bring with them a guest, Horace Ferguson, who is reputed to be a famous marksman. Horace is visiting The Beeches ostensibly to do a little hunting, but his real purpose in coming is to acquire the' valuable jade ear of an old voo-doo idol. This ear is in the possession of Liza, Mary Ann's old negro mammy, and is the source of the mysterious power which enables her to foretell future events. W'hile the houseparty, which Mrs. Courtney has arranged to welcome Mary Ann home, is in progress, Liza is called upon to tell some fortunes. Her prophecies bode ill for John Endicott, Mary Ann's bashful lover, but apparently promise a rosy future to Horace. But before Horace is able to obtain the ear it suddenly disappears, and as it does not rest easily in strange hands, it brings a multitude of misfortunes down upon the house. John believes Horace to be guilty of the theft, and despite his reputation as a marksman, challenges him to a duel. Meanwhile, the Sheriff has been attempting to forcclose a mortgage on The Beeches, but is forestalled by John's Uncle, Col. Waverly. The sheriff appears just in time to prevent the duel, and takes this oppor- tunity to serve his papers. However, Liza's prophecies are resolved in such a way that the Lucky Jade is restored to its rightful owner, the Courtney home is saved, and John not only wins Mary Ann but comes in for a bit of additional good fortune as well.

Our cheerleaders are a representative organization being selected by the student body-the Seniors choosing' two and the other classes, one each. The selections proved to be aptly made, for the cheerleaders became a well-drilled and organized group whose efforts have promoted good sportsmanship and school spirit to a high plane. Circumstances never deterred their efforts, for eorne what may, they kept a cease- less barrage of cheers rolling over the gr'dirou and basketball court, to lend fresh courafle to our athletes. :Y The present cheering staff mem s ar Captain, Helen VVargog Helen Reppe, Martha Andrcscavage.

Although the season was not very successful from the standpoint of wins and losses, the undaunted courage and spirit of the K. H. S. gridders redeemed for these defeats. The Wildcats displayed the same heroic efforts in all their eight games until the constant pounding of their stronger opponents finally wore down the fighting Wild- cats. -Examples of this could be seen in the hit. Carmel fray when the Blue and White' held their mightier adversaries for the first half. Coal Township was held to a tie. Shamokin and Frackville were held for three quarters of the game when the steady influx of fresh substitutes finally broke down the stubborn barrier and brought defeat to the plueky VVildcats. The Mt. Carmel Township and Coaldalc games were a repetition of the above. However. the WVildcats defeated Girardvillc for their only win. Despite the loss of six lettermen, Captain Forman. Shiner, Mockapetris. YVas- cavage, Shelinski, and E. Linetty, the coaching staff is looking forward to a very prosperous season in the newly organized South Anthracite Conference. of which Kulpmont is a charter member. Six conference members, Mt. Carmel Township, Coal Township, Ashland, Frackville, Coaldale, and four non-conference opponents, Steel- ton, York, Danville, and Northumberland complete the forthcoming schedule. At the close of the season the lettermen elected A. Poniato-ski as their captain. Here's hoping for a very successful season in the new conference and lots of luck from the class of '37.

Kulpmont High School courtmen embarked upon a season of independent basketball. Meeting some of the fastest and most powerful teams in the region. namely Coal- dale. Mahanoy City, Berwick, Shamokin, Mt. Carmel Township and others, the VVild- cats won their first five games. This winning streak was broken when the champion- ship Coaldale aggregation sent the Bh1e and VVhite Cagers tumbling to their initial defeat. In their next engagement Kulpmont returned to winning form at the expense of Conyngham Township. On January 22, Kulpmont High School formally dedicated its new gymnasium in the New Franklin U. Roosevelt High School Building. It was an outstanding event, for the WVildcats had been forced to practice and play on foreign courts for the past three years. Their opponent was Ashland, whom they defeated handily. The remainder of the schedule saw Kulpmont High School defeated by Mt. Carmel Townshipg winning from Trevortong then slumping into three successive defeats at the hands of Shamokin. Alumni and Berwick. Snapping out of the lethargy, the VVildeats rose to superb heights to upset Mt. Carmel Township but slumped again to lose to Shamokin and Mahanoy City, After heating Mt. Carmel High School a second time. the VVildcats were again set hack by Coaldale.
