Q ,, .c 'N N is A ll ,LI f 7 ,sshd lm To the Seniors Be strong and of a Good Courage. Tl1is is a noble motto, full of significance and expression. There are few passages in the English language more sublime than that, and we sincerely trust that as you have been sustained in the past by the strength of the words, you will be guided in your future paths and pursuits by them. You have ever been loyal and noble in your dealings with teachers and classmates and have shown a decided willingness to serve in any capacity. The members of the faculty are mindful of your generous enthusiasm and willing cooperation for common ends, and we deeply appreciate all of these kind and thoughtful acts. We have tried to show you the value of honesty, perseverance, punctuality, ac- curacy, and fidelity to responsibility, virtues that cannot be stressed too strongly, and we believe that we have impressed you with the fact that the new world into which you are now entering will demand a high percentage in these qualities. Does the product justify the old plant? We are firmly convinced that it does, for the reason that Lafayette graduates through their splendid spirit are making enviable records in the state of life in which they have been privileged to be placed. I add a personal word. I have had conferred upon me the title of Honorary Presif dent of the class of 1934, and I appreciate this tribute most deeply. I fondly call this class my classu because at your commencement I shall be graduated with you. Naturally I regret that I shall soon sever my active connections with this choicest of schools, a school in which I have enjoyed the closest friendships among the teach- ers and students for the past twenty-eight years. Keenly do I cherish these memories. To be graduated with such a loyal, loving, and devoted class helps very greatly to assuage the feelings of sadness at taking my departure from these scenes of happy companionships. I have maintained on many occasions that friendship is one of lifels greatest assets? May 'these precious friendships formed here under our standard of Loyalty, Honor, Service, be of a lasting and satisfying nature. lNIay God bless you and give to you strength to carry out successfully the ideas and ideals of your Alma hfater.

Heaven smiles, and faiths and empires gleam, Like wrecks of a dissolving dreamf' A new spirit is shaking the children of men, a spirit which breathes into them a desire for light and a thirst for knowledge. It is spurring men forth to the destruction of old, enfeebled institutions and to the establishment of new, experimental ones. This spirit is a wind which sweeps the dust of ignorance and timidity from men's eyes, a wind that reveals new vistas of courage buoyed by certainty of purpose and strength of conviction. The world today is a changing world, the result of years of political, social, and economic revolution. Each day it witnesses a further change in which each man has a part. We too have a part in this changing world. Ours is the change of transi- tion from a familiar place to one a bit more strange. We have completed four happy years at Lafayette, now we must leave these pleasant halls and become a part of the changing world. Until now Lafayette has been our own small world, we have all had our place in it. But now we must advance into a greater world in which we shall hold smaller places for a time at least. These places, however, are ours to make of them what we will. We are leaving behind the dissolving dreamf' Whether or not we attainguheav- en's smilei' depends entirely upon our own powers. In the powerful sway of the world, one cannot maintain his balance unless he have the power of resistance and the courage of his convictions. Had not these essential characteristics been instilled into us here, we should surely find our goal quite unattainable. The strength and the courage which are the very essence of the Lafayette spirit will steer our course. The aversion for dishonor which has been so irrevocably instilled into us here will lead our footsteps always through the very center of the path. May this attitude evidence to others the principles of Lafayette. To us these principles have been exemplified in the character of Captain Mellen Whose goodness and true fineness will always iniiuence us. Because that which he has given us is too great for thanks, we cannot offer him mere words of apprecia- tion. Our gratitude can be shown to him only by the constant application of his fine principles and by perpetual respect for the school he loves. For many years he has gone about that school, endearing himself to all those who have had even the smallest association with him. There is not a single one of us who has not been the recipient of his good will and kindness. The Captain has become an ideal in himself, so vast is his inHuence and so universal are the respect and affection which he commands. It is our great privilege to be graduated from Lafayette with Mr. Mellen. The fact that we are the last class he will graduate brings him very close to us, closer were it possible, than he has ever been before. Ever changing as is this world of today, it yet contains much that is permanent and unchanging. Of this permanent quality are the ties which bind us to our Alma Mater. Our loyalty to her and our memories of her shall be as everlasting as the aged tra- ditions and lovely green ivy which cling to her walls. Now, because we must, we, who are about to leave her, bid farewell to Lafayette.

Enshrouded in a grayed and musive mantle Apprehensive he stood, knowing the cause. Could he surmount the secret of the stream, Dread enigma of his fate? Gold and gray The future rose as he sought the way Allotted to him in the Moerae's scheme. Vliould awful Atropos, grim and fatal, Send with fearful shears his soul unknown To depths obscure or, with reluctant moan, Sever a life forever made immortal? In grief tumultuous he sought the sun, Drowned in a haze of turbulent hue, When soaring swift o'erhead a blithe bird flew. Darting unruffied through the waters dun, It wheeled and dipped its scarlet pinions pureg Then winging fast followed the stream of life. Thereon emboldened Youth crushed his heart's strife And plunged deep into the swirling future. THALIA PHILLIES The Lafayette Oracle, Page Twenty CAPTAIN Mxa1.1.xaN, Ilmmrfzry AIOHN ff.

I ark if ez ml! :hip and ez .flar to rieer her byf, Thus we begin! The illustrious most splendid class of 1934 is about to embark on a new adventure. September 9, 1930 is recorded in the log as the historic date when we bade a fond farewell to grammar school to set sail on the unexplored sea of high school in search of the much sought diploma. Although we feel a little lost at first, the friendly attitude of Captain Mellen, who is waiting to greet us on the good ship Lafayette, soon makes us feel at home. We Set Sail. Wait! do not weigh anchor. Here corne Doris Gram, Howard Newman, Mildred Marine, and Kenneth Edmunds dashing up the gangplank, just as the third whis- tle blows. Soon all is ready, powerful Leo Callahan, Willard Berger, Paul Sukernek, and Fred Unger heave on the halyards. We're off! For the first few days, bedlam reigns. Bewildered figures scurry madly here and there, curious faces bend over the ship's map to find their whereabouts! In a few weeks we have gained our sea legs, we have settled down to routine. We Diyeover Talent. The oratorical ability of Thalia Phillies and Allan Daggett is early demonstrated in the declamation contest for the sailors. Although the gift of chatter was im- mediately recognized in Beverly Fisher, Howard Beir, Irving Fineberg, Ada Miller, and Robert Hirshberg, speaking has never before reached such stupendous acclaim. Great Stormy Emue. During the course of the first year, we encounter two violent storms, one in January, the other in June. Elijah Adams, Eda Ortolani, Kathleen Kauth, Rena Rubenstein, and Robert Swados show clever seamanship in weathering these difficulties. In consideration of others a two months' shore leave is granted.

We are getting our bearings by now so that although treacherous channels and reefs are on the course, We are better prepared to meet them. We pick up some sur- vivors from a desert island. Our passenger list gains the names of Roger Broad, Marilyn Clark, Margaret Norton, Gerald Fried, Doris Goodes, Helen Morrice, Harold Heisler, Jane Van Dusen, and Gertrude Walsh. We Eniertain 0ur:eloe:. On dreary nights when sailing grows monotonous, some of the crew enliven our spirits with choice acting. We pass the time pleasantly as Janice Brainard, Jack Thompson, Hayd Rothfus, Richard Willoughby, Jerry Rothfus, and Sam Block become younger and older or even impersonate royalty. Warfare Preparation: A re Made. When we hear news of an oncoming warship, immediately Karnig Bandelian, Kenneth Muhl, Nicholas DeCillis, Edgar Schabacker, Kenneth Schoelles, Edwin Webdale, and Edward Weiland answer the call for warriors. Many are the hours they spend in diligent training for the battles that are to come. . Reef: Show Ahead. Josephine Cracchiola, Natalie Heckman, and Joseph Overfield receive medals as able seamen because of their quick action when we scrape over Regents Reef. Although the damage is slight, We go into drydock for repairs. BOOK III We've raced the rapidq-we're far aheadf, By this time practically all are becoming crusty old salts although David Lacombe and hflartha Davis still retain their look of innocence. We make merry in planning a ship's concert where a conglomeration of all would-be artists may have a chance to display their talents on one gala program. Ship': Cancer! Bring: Enthu:ia:m. The concert is a huge success thanks to that marvelous ticket seller, Dick Johnson. The orchestra presents some jolly numbers in which Katherine Logan's Hute, Elsie Jepson's French horn, and Seymour Kimmel,s violin blend remarkably well.

Not to be outdone, the girls' glee club with Helen Post, Jane Clowes, Flossy Snow, Florence Hart, and Ruth Short yodels until the topsails quiver. Ethel Lee Browne's singing thrills us. Phil Hirsch and Company tap dance fast and furiously, Lillian Smead sings in best prima donna fashion. The Log Appearr. This affair is well reported in the ship's log, The Oracle. The good qualities of this log are made known through the valiant efforts of Madelon Koshland, Isabel Wag- ner, Stanley Klaiber, and William Georgi whose task it is to distribute the log at various intervals. We Touch Up. About this time, the ship needs a little overhauling. Rosemarie Cornelissen and Edgar Batzell get out their paint brushes and have the boat looking shipshape in no time at all. The pictures of houses they draw on the starboard side are quite artistic, Grace Koen and Albert Goatseay assisting. We Par: the Time Pleafantly. Now and again, some of the sailors take time from their watches to enjoy games on deck. Joseph Overfield, Allan Daggett, Joseph Sernoffsky, and Joe Battaglia are among the ping pong experts.

BOOK IV I Sail on, 0 Ship of Slate, Jail on. The ship majestically plows through the water under full sail as we near the last stretch.

It is Friday and six bells entice us to the caviar and pate de fois gras of Our regular Hi-Y meeting with Phil Hirsch presiding, David Wilkins, Elmer Krull, Vincent McGee, and William Holliday supporting. A delightful dinner is brought to a climax by a program presented by the girl reserves: Mona Burdick, Winifred Burley, Joan Cawthra, Viola Craw, Myrtle Cummer, and Daisy Wolford, whose nautical prowess is enthusiastically received. Pirafer Appear. From the crOw's nest comes the vehement outcry, Pirate ships On the port flying the Hags of Hutchinson, Bennett, South Park, and Masten. All hands on deck.', Taking us unawares, the pirates are creeping up alongside. Hand to hand fighting follows. While Gene Kaiser, John Himmel, Montgomery Pooley, Charles Gray, John Mills, and Andrew lylancuso are Ordering their forces into position, the thrill of battle grips us. James Frid, John Riehle, and Dick Johnson hit the line of oncoming pirates with a thud. Eugene Ciesielski, Lloyd Thomson, and Vincent McGee leap into the air in their efforts to Outmatch the foe. Somebody has fallen Overboard! Splash! Splash! Splash! Paul Florian, John Merrill, and Lloyd Young- berg swim to the rescue. George Eberle and Edwin Maisel shout our approval, always our brave Captain stands on deck, cheering and encouraging Our men. Finally, battle scarred and weary, we conquer the enemy and sail Off with the silver booty. We Parley. After the smoke Of battle has cleared away, a parley is called to discuss further plans. There seems to be some controversy among Howard Newman, Elmer Batzell, Alice Tindell, and Victor Nfulcahy and a lively debate springs up. There is no debate concerning our regret at leaving our Captain. For that greatest gift, broad as the sea VVe love him most,-his great humanity. Now the beams from Regents Lighthouse warn us of dangerous shoals at the entrance of our port. Safely we pass through to enter peaceful Graduation Harbor. We have reached the end Of this journey. Greater Ones remain perhaps, but we shall never forget. Q And all I axle is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow rover. And quiet sleep and a fweei dream when the long trielekr over.

Antiques THE CRAZE for short, stubby pens and ' pencils still exists, believe it or not. If you can't, just ask Virginia Kibbel and Ca- therine Fried to exhibit their pens. Auer Q-Ianej Most women subtract a few years from their ages, but little Jane Auer proves an exception to the rule, for when Captain accused her, in the assembly, of being twelve years old, she replied, l'm almost thir- teen! Badger KHaroldl Assembly days hold an added appeal for Harold Badger since Miss Clary has instituted Jlfodern Mechanicr for the freshmen. He has English first hour, so he rushes right to class as soon as assembly is outg and when we arrive, he is deeply en- grossed in the printed page. Bartholomew fDickJ Could it be that dimin- utive member of the swimming team to whom Dick Bartholomew is quoted as saying Come up here and sit by me, son? Bickley QNormaD When Miss Pitt asked for the derivation of the word ostracism, Norma Bickley created a sensation, for she answered: The word 'ostracism' comes from an 'ostrich'. Binder CMary Alicel Perhaps desks do get rather tired of staying everlastingly in the same spot. At any rate, when Mary Alice Binder sat down in hers, it skidded grace- fully away to the blackboard. Was Betsy MacLeod surprised to see her faithless desk sliding away on a joyride with INI.A.B.'s bench? To date, the bench and desk are still touchingly attached to each other, but they are leading rather loose lives. Blair fLucilel Determined to go the Oracle birthday cakexof last year with its thirty candles one better, Lucile proudly exhibited her birthday cake, consisting of a chocolate frosted cup-cake with one twinkling candle, to the populace of the cafeteria one chilly hiarch day, she was acdompanied by a very beaming and gesticulating jewel Schoen. Boland CKatherinel There is a new fad in the school. Katherine Boland confronts her friends with the remark, See what I have, and produces a small ball at the end of a rubber string. Then she trips gaily dow'n the stairs. And' rfill Ihey .ray that children grow up ioo soon., Briefly fhflonal Seemingly disliking the pro- nunciation of her name, Mona Brierly ap- pended a note of explanation to- her test paper: Brierly- you know, briar patch. Brogan CRobertaj Although it was rather cold, Roberta celebrated the spring equinox by strolling down Delaware avenue with a huge cone of ice cream clutched in a gloved hand. Buckheit CRobertj For the asking, this gentle- man will delight anyone with a story of the turtle hunt which he and his brother took live years ago. Burg CM'Lissj In mute wonder we gaped at lNI'Liss diligently winding up yards of that serpentine which issues from the cafeteria cash register. What would her next move be? She gently laid it in her purse. Burkgiesser Clflfriedej It is a little known fact that Elfriede Burkgiesser comprises 5092, of the German IV students.

Cornelius CMarianl One of our attractive freshmen is growing up, if the disappear- ance of her long curls signihes anything. Craigie QErnestJ and his sister are nice people. We insert this announcement because, having watched every opportunity this year to call attention to the fact, we have given up and offer it here as a simple un- adorned iteIII. Denick fRogerJ We often wonder what Roger Denick sees when he continually stares from the window in his fourth hour Latin class. Desperados WILLIAM LAVVRENCE, Edward and Ray- mond Kempner would certainly be pleased if they had the opportunity of choking Lawrence jenkins when he relates some of his self-made, agonizing riddles. PETER Wotr, Richard Epstein, Peter Tishman, and Burton Stuhlberg are finally convinced that it is useless to whisper while in the library. Draa Cjeanj As soon as Jean found her laugh annoyed people, she immediately developed it into a haw haww as maddening as the drums in The Emperor fonef. Drummond QDonaldD Another record in our school! Donald Drummond was the first to take out so many books that he needed a new library card. Ennis Clxffllllfp The cute accent of Arthur Ennis has been called both southern and New Yorkish. We compliment him for not complaining as we have just learned from undisputed authority that it is Bostonian. Esoterica WHAT UNDECLINAELE something is it that makes Herbert Keown, Bud Lormor, Ralph Fox, and Charles Jacobs go delving into a frogls innermost insides? WE DON'T know just what the conferences are, but-Roberta Brogan, Alfreda Urban, Ruth Bixon, and Virginia Kibbel gossip and giggle in the library nightly. Leo Mojetaniz dashes in and out to keep things lively. IGNORANCE is bliss for the comic editor! Miss Williams asked her freshman class why the temples of Rome were in ruins. A girl told her gravely that it had something to do with the fall of Rome. Didn't il? Evans CAlfredl While the spectators watched wonderingly, Al Evans went down upon the football field in'all high stadium and took snapshots of our team in action. Feuds A TI-IE QUESTION is whether Jean Hiller will ever remember to close the door of Room 23A fifth hour without being reminded by Miss Allen, Evelyn Stulberg, and Amber Paine. CANEY CREEK hasn't a monoply on feuds. There is one daily in Room 25 B third hour between the warms , in the persons of Miss Williams and the girls, and the colds , personified by the boys. Freakley fNormaQ Miss Rief, gazing sorrow- fully upon a moth-eaten ivy, hopefully asked a roll call group of Lafayette bright lights what might be done for its state of health. Norma Frcakley, always ready to please, was heard to remark helpfully, I'd throw it out. The ivy haf reared to be. Frills HAVE YOU seen Alwilda Canny's new bangs, or Lucile Tindel's, or Alberta Kyes', or janet Le Vinness'? Did you notice Eliza- beth Sztuk's, Jeanette Mathewson's, and Betty Baxterls? For that matter, have you noticed anyone who didn't have bangs of some kind? Look around you. They've all got 'em- corduroy blouses, I mean. Mildred Short has a brilliant red oneg Harrice Levy has an orange oneg Harriette Weismore has a green one, and Patricia Woods also has a green one. It really is amazing to what lengths these women will go to be original. ANTOINETTE DE PAOLIS and Annette Van Slyke were numbered anIong the many HOl1CI'Si, aIId ahers who expressed their delight when their favorite movie actors were flashed on the screen during the hu- mane society assembly.

Since they have had such a vogue, she has seemed to stand a bit aloof as though in ridicule of the sorry attempts at real braids. - Gourmets and Gourmands As ye olde crayflsh seasonn came on in the biological world, several students began The Lafayette Oracle, Page F zfty-jiffe l 1 f l qw 'P ni S .

They are always ready to buy the other's milk or anything else not quite worth a single trip. The group consists of james Meyer, Robert Bode, Walter Mordaunt, Thomas Allen. and Herb Morgan- Stefn. Doius PARSONS and june Hood must be- lieve that saying, An apple a day keeps the doctor away, because every day each fin- ishes her lunch with a bright, round, red apple. Hagadorn CBetty-jeanl You didnlt realize we had genius of unusual talent in our midst, did you? Betty-jean Hagadorn's particular pride is her ability to give a very realistic imitation of a young horse whinnying. Hors D'0euvres . ENGLISH teachers tell us that it is in- correct to say, I have got . What about those teachers who number either Esther or Ruth Gott in their classes? WHILE WALKING along the hall in a daze, Hope Levy was astonished to find that she had run into something which was extreme- ly high. After backing up a few steps, she recognized the object as Walter Willoughby. Houston CBillJ If you are looking for tricky signatures for your year book, don't over- overlook Bill Houston's. Due, no doubt to the infiuence of his German class, he signs it Wilhelm von Houston der Zwcitef' Ducky? Hubbard Cljhyllisj Giggling girlishly at her own jokes but remaining silent when some- one else attempts to tell a humorous story, is Phyllis Hubbardis habit. Hunter Uamesj If there is anything that cheers us up on a dark, rainy day, it is the sight of James Hunter's scarlet sweater. It ron ofn hit: ur in the right place. Influence and Influenza WE HAVE DECIDED that Dwight Blakes- lee must have a sister for who else could have given him that Alice bluev tie he was wearing on the day after his fifteenth birthday? And do sisters figure in the lives of Kevin O'Gor- man, Charles Tracy, Gerald Ehrenrich. and countless others? Janis Clrvingj The nonchalance of Irving was most amazing when, having been called upon in modern history class to give illus- trations of seventeenth century English explorers, he replied, Well, there was Magellan ---- The Lafayette Oracle, Page Fifty-.fix Jenkins fldarryj He has been much discom- fited in his French class. His teacher having assigned him to a seat which is not adapted to his length, he can find no place to park his pedal extremities. Jones CMaryj This young lady firmly resolved to stop eating candy during Lent. What, then, was her feeling when she, as a pledge, was ordered to make three pounds of fudge for her sorority sisters? Our ever resource- ful Mary invited Hnon-fastingl' friends to do the sampling and scraping necessary for each batch. Katz CBeatriceD Remember the assembly when we had slides of animals? Remember the one of the bowl of fish? When it was thrown on the screen, Beatrice Katz, who loves to find mistakes, explained to us that the fish weren't real because they didn't move. Laurel LAFAYETTE has its own Marconis, for Kenneth Levin and Martin Salabes spend all their spare time, and some school time, in electrical research. Ir THERE is anything about Paul Bunyon you care to know, we hasten to inform you that Willy Wolfe's brother, Pete, has re- cently finished reading the book by that name. Pete can also tell you all about sail- boats, sperm whales, and things pertain- ing to the sea.

Lovejoy fMyronQ After much inquiry the other day, it was made known that MyI'Oll Bud Lovejoy had received the worst of a wrest- ling match in the gym. They say he even had to visit the doctor to get straightened out.

McLaughlin QPeggyD Turned cow giri at last, Peggy opened the spring season by display- ing a dark, red silk kerchief draped about her neck in the approved western fashion. MacLean Clanj Eager to contribute his bit to the beauty of mankind, Ian has begun his campaign. Drastic actions were taken to- ward his goal when he dramatically smeared the countenance of a fellow-sufferer with Pond's Cold Cream to illustrate a lecture in his English class. MacPherson Cjeanl When asked what Caesar said to Brutus when the latter stabbed him, Jean replied very self-assuredly, Ouch. Maisel Qfidwardj The members of the third hour Cicero class have come to thc conclu- sion that Edward Maisel must have swal- lowed a full-fledged Oxford dictionary. Furthermore, Edward knows many dates, notably 1592 when Shakespeare's name gained commercial value. Martyrs IF Irene Rosenberg's father collected fares from the carload of freshmen he hauls to school every morning, he would have a small fortune by this time. Besides Irene, he accommodates ,lane Auer, Charles iacobs, and Sherwood and Elliot Lasser, the latter emg only a prospective Lafayette student. THERE MUST be some recompense for teaching after all. we bet Miss Hilfinger got more fun when joseph Miles said that Robert Herrick and the rest of Ben Jonson's tribe were called mermaid.: than she did ,out of the Harlow-Beery scene from Din- ner at Eight! Milady NEITHER Raymond Nenno nor Freddie Munschauer felt quite feminine enough to take the female part in a dialogue they were to present in English class. The teacher told them to hght it out for themselvesg and in the end, the dialogue was never given. AMONG THOSE who were impatient for summer and rushed the season by wearing white footwear are Peggy McLaughlin, Helen Bessinger, Mary jane Hart, and jane Gibbs. LYDIA GLASER sold four yearbooks one morning. Is it a wonder that Jane Gibbs looked up at her in reverential awe and said, Gee, you're wonderfulln? Fon THOSE of you who are doing your Christmas shopping early, I have some words of advice. Don't get Shirlee Cobb any boxes of handkerchiefs. She hates them. Don't give stockings to Betty Anderson, because she says, . When they're full of runs, where's your present? Editor's note: When you give them the perfect gifts.and are complimented for your judgment. mention The Oraclz. Moseley CGeorgeD This chemistry student by circumstance and not by volition amazed Frederick Babbey with his absent minded- ness by attempting to walk out of class several minutes before the bell rang. Mr. Peek illustrated his mental alertness by im- mediately calling him back. Movements Miss T ---- gave Herb Peters a mark of A for his life of William Kay Lawrence. We were wishing we could read it, just to satisfy our curiosity about a few things in Bill's past. -SOMEONE needs to start a subscription to get Morton Raysch a wrist supporter. His taking ways and the skillful manipula- tion of his wrist form an invincible combina- tion especially for taking cookies from Dan- iel Maisel at lunch time. Ogden CMaryl Alas! We can no longer feast our eyes upon Mary Ogden skating grace- fully over Park Lake. O'Hara CHelenj I shut my eyes. I opened them again. I looked around the corner of one. It was true. This was the twentieth cen- tury, and there walking through our ven- erable corridors was Helen O'Hara looking like a veritable belle of the Gay Nineties with her hair piled up in millions of little blonde curls all over her head. O'Neill CAnnej Somebody must have told Anne O'Neill at some time or other that Montcalm was an eloquent man. So-o-o-o The teacher said to Anne one day In the Battle of Quebec, Montcalm was defeated by Wolfe and mortally wounded. His last words uttered upon his deathbed have be- come quite famous. What were they? Anne replied in all solemnity, Who's afraid' of the big bad Wolfe? Oueeriosities WAS HER face red! Wende Desbecker is continually being reprimanded in algebra class for chattering. The other day, the teacher was heard saying to her, Wende, I shall have to buy you a muzzle!

ROGERS, our swimming instructor, made a rule that anybody caught whistling in the locker room could not go into the pool for two days. Already, Eugene Chaplin and Clyde Harrell have suffered in the first hour class. Clyde admitted that he didn't know that he was whistling. MAXINE TINKHAM and Caroline Hurley are freshman contestants for the title of Lafayette'r Longer! Non-Stop Talker. The contest is held every fourth hour in Room Eleven under the supervision of Miss Haas. I think Miss Haas has shown partiality for Miss Tinkham, however, for Maxine is called more often to the front of the room fthe better for Mirr Haa: to hear her, my dearj. UNDER THE category of small boys, who, to quote a certain French teacher, always study their lessons, are the names Milton Fineberg, Lawrence Smith, james Diggins, Martin Salabis. WE WONDER in what penitentiary john Scatcherd and Richard Boye received their convict hair cuts. John says it pays to be original. DICK HEINTZ and Edward Webster ought to stage a marathon to determine who talks more slowly. IRVINC JANIS perpetually brings a banana for his lunch. This liking could probably be traced back to his prehistoric ancestors. ALFRED WADD, a freshman here, had the reputation of being the rerona' tougher! boy in the eighth grade of School 16 last year. Reed Uamesj History does repeat itself for in our midst we have another Tommy Traddles. James Reed illustrates his draw- ing ability in the form of Popeyes and more Popeyes fto say nothing of myriads of Wimpysl all over his pads. Riexinger fliettyj The former knitting en- thusiast has now joined the army of men- agerie collectors.

Schramn CRuthJ Have you ever noticed Ruth Schramn's bracelets? Sometimes we are inclined to think it is Bracelets' Ruth Schramn. But then, we have been known to be wrong. . . Smith fjanel We should be very happy to meet someone who has actually seen Jane Smith and that P. G. partake of' their noonday repast while seated. Thus far, we have daily observed them leaning against the wall next to the bulletin board, munching sand- wiches. Smith QLesterJ Although Latin teachers be- come accustomed to all sorts of queer trans- lations, Miss William's eyes were a bit bulging when she heard Lester Smith ask if Pompey were an angel yet. She regained her usual composure when she realized that it was all a trick of the ear. It seems that Lester was terribly concerned to see whether Pompey was in Asia yet.

Stanley Cjosephineb On the first really spring- like morning, .losephine appeared in Room 24 complaining bitterly about sisters who ask in loud voices, Do you think that we need rubbers today? Still at Large BILL LAWRENCE and his partners in crime, Whit Dollarhyde, Cy Elkes, Bob Flanigan, and Bill jenkins, managed to defeat a much taller basketball quintet 72 to 68, by simply running beneath their opponents' legs.

AMONG THINGS that are arousing unusual attention around school are Lawrence jenkin's stale jokes, George Keim's score- board tendencies, and Billy Neill's great weight. IF You happen to be looking for Leland Seegar and hear someone sneeze: hakaka- choo-just, follow the sneeze. IT MAY be known of late that Walter Stafford has been seen wandering about the halls and study rooms forlornly seeking his algebra assignments. DANNY BURKEYS daily juggling act, sixth hour in Miss Kauffmaifs room, is causing much merriment among his class- mates. Those trying to keepstraightfaces are Ruth Bixon, Mary Jenkins, Catherine Bassinger, Charles Gray, and Sidney Fink. Termini fMadelinej When requested by Miss Hall to pass the basket Cduring one of Room 4's numerous house cleaning orgiesl, Made- line, who believes in doing her duty thor- oughly, proceeded laboriously to haul the large wicker basket down the aisle. Well at least we found plenty of room for our waste paper. Todd CFlorenceDWe should like to know wheth- er Florence Todd is a humble student or a distinguished visitor of our humble school. Twinsk , Brownlee-Bryans inseparables, the other half being Margaret Bryans. They have the same classes, the same hour, with the same teacher. In other words look for one and you'll find them both. Ricx-IARD Bucmsrr and Ralph Schugert have jointly mastered the giggle of the yearg united, their giggle can penetrate the deep- est of deep silences. We are now struggling to determine whether their art or their giggle is the greater. PERSONAL reputations triumphed over discretion one fine day when two of our more diminutive girls decided to settle for- ever a very important fact. Melodia Black- mer and Ida Sciolina took tapemeasure and yardstick to settle with a grim finality the mighty question of which excelled in height. THE HARRIS twins, Joan and Eleanor, cause their Latin teacher no little em- barrassment when one is absent. The teacher finds it necessary to ask the one who is present whether or not she is absent. JEAN Ovt-:Rl-'IELD is never seen without Betty Kirk. We wonder whether the fact that Betty always brings a candy bar to algebra has anything to do with it. Wallace CMiriamD The other day Miriam ex- hibited her loyalty to Lafayette and ap- peared with a violet scarf knotted around her neck. The scarf had a great white L on the front. Wenk fBuellD The local sophisticate and master of the English Language, completely un- daunted by the fact that there were five questions in the homework, nonchalantly announced that he had prepared but two and a hawlf. Wentland CAlfredj This veritable soul of efhciency takes no chances, to insurer-the safety of his several large sheets of notes, he has securely fastened them together with an enormous safety pin which will no doubt outlive the notes.

Wojtowicz CLeoj The tin medal is presented to Leo for the peculiar ability of getting into the fifth hour class nearest to being late, but never quite.

Nlellcnis principalship at Lafayette, has endeavored to make The Oracle a particularly representative journal of our high school thought and action. The art and literary staffs have been pleased to co-operate. On such an under- standing basis unusual things may be accomplished. The fall issue contained a short story in pictures, from the pen of Edgar Batzell. When the literary staff took to its heart the idea of masques for the central theme of its spring number, Edgar Batzell produced an interesting cover, Alice Gershel responded with l,-O-shaped masques for our page divisions and small replicas for article divisions. Carol Lee Houston's activities in silhouetting various prominent lvlellenites is still a favorite topic about school. Concerning The Time Has Come,', the literary staff has been exceptionally wide-awake. Indeed, there were added several new departments to The Lafrzyeffe Oracle, Page Sixty-tlzree .2'iffiiE.IIlli.a .fa x max inf, ll 17 .MEA Firrl row, left lo righf: R. Bows. INT. KOSHLANU, P. DOLD, W.

The business side of The Oracle has been well attended to by William Georgi and Peter Runfola and their staffs who secured 1150 and 1100 sales for the fall and spring numbers. Posters by Carlton Seitz and Marshal Heverly have interested many lackadaisical quarters in the purchase of an Oracle. The advertising staff, headed by Joan hlesmer, succeeded in brightening the last pages of our magazine with very desirable publicity. So We have tried to enclose a very vivid and lasting picture of life at Lafayette for Captain to carry away with him.

Certain of the special honors attained by students are worthy of separate mention here. Ifda Ortolani and Ijlsie Wiebb gained the admiration of every student when they read over the radio their essays concerning the National Recovery Administration. Their essays were adjudged excellent when judges for Thf Buffalo Ezteuiizg Nmu read those submitted by students all over the city. In early spring, hfellenites might be observed running about, despondently tear- ing their hair. The cause for all this perturbation was the Americanism essay contest of The Buffalo Etwzitzg Nercxt. Three essays on the given subject, Anzerimizimz 115 Exenzplzlfifd in the Lzfe' of Groefr Clewlatzd, were selected from all those submitted. ljda Ortolani, Robert Swados, and Robert Hirshberg emerged victorious from the Lafayette fray.

Honorable mention was awarded Thalia Phillies for a report on The Life and Letterx of Emily Diehimon and Peggy McLaughlin for a review of The Exfayy of William Cohhett. An honor, indeed, was conferred upon The Lafayette Oraele this fall. At the Syra- cuse convention for high school publications, The Oracle won first prize, a loving cup awarded to the most representative high school magazine. VVe also received an honorable mention for the third most representative high school annual. Our Oracle annual fared better, however, at the Inter-scholastic Press Associa- tion of Western New York convention. Here it was awarded first place. It is somewhat early at the date of yearbook publication to announce art honors. VVe do feel, however, that our success in the modern homes and buildings poster contest should be -noted here. Victor lX4illonzi won a prize for third place. Other prize-winners in the contest were Mary Giallombardo, Kenneth Volz, John Tom- kins, and Kenneth Witter. Honorable mention was secured by Charles Verso, Elizabeth Dennison, and Rosemarie Cornelissen. In the Scholastic national art contest, for which ten thousand pieces of art Work were submitted, Lafayette gained six places. Edgar Batzell won fourth place in the prints division for a three color block print of a fishing vessel showing interesting reflections. Kenneth Volz won two places in the traveling exhibit, which will be presented in principal cities of the United'States, for the fall Oracle cover and for a three color block print. Grace Koen and Alice Cary received mention for batik designs. Victor Millonzi was mentioned for the poster which won third place in the Buffalo Evening News Better Homes Exposition poster contest. Victor Millonzi won an honorable mention in the clean up and paint up poster contest. Speaking contests have brought recognition to a Lafayette boy and girl. Ellen Ward, the school's representative in the girls' declamation contest last fall, read Vachel Lindsay's The Chinese Nightengalen. At the boys, oratorical contest in the spring, Laman Bruner presented an original address on Abraham Lincoln. He wasawarded first prize. Thus have Lafayette students participated in competition.

The resolutions of the Commo11 Council marked April 16-21 as Melleli VVeek. During that week, Captain Mellen was the honor guest at luncheons given by the Spongers, the staff workers and executives of the Boy Scoutsg the Ad Clubg the Rlasonsg the Rotary Clubg the Shrine Club. Members of the Wlest Side Business Mens Association and of the Criteria Club waited upon him to present resolutions from each club and to award him a life membership in each organization. The climax of the week came at the alumni dinner attended by twelve hundred people who were pleased to honor Captain Mellen. The Board of Education drew up resolutions which were presented to Captain Xlellen. Captain Mellen was appointed a member of the Board of Trustees of Deveaux, to hold ofiiee until 1936. The members of the University Club Sent resolutions and made him a life mem- ber of their organization. When the Associated Academic Principals ofthe State of New York met in Syra- cuse, Captain hlellen, honor guest at the banquet, was presented with a diploma, resolutions, and a life membership.
