GGTT Affable, Well-informed alumnus of the University of Illinois, lrvin H. Himmele, has completed his fourth year as Lafayette's Assistant Principal. He has proved himself a valued advisor in the settlement of prob- lems ranging from the registration of Fresh- men to releasing recalcitrant padlocks. During his four years as principal of Lafayette, Frank R. Gott has earned the regard of the student body by his untiring efforts for their happiness and welfare. An Oberlin graduate, he spends his leisure hours reading fiction, pitching horseshoes, traveling and enjoying the activities of three energetic daughters. IRVIN I-l.

Wenzel 1 W, , 1 The Monitors of Lafayette High School, organized and directed by Mr. Himmele, and headed by captains Irma Rumizen and lames Beardsell, are a capable and serviceable group. One may see them at all hours of the day, patrolling the halls or sitting near the door- ways where they receive and direct visitors. Monitor duties also include taking charge of the cafeteria during lunch hours, clerking in the offices, helping in the infirmary, de- livering messages, and operating the switchboard in the office. These administrative duties do not, however, comprise the sole activities of the moni- tors. They conduct almost all of the social affairs of the school. The outstanding event of last fall, a roller skating party at Scott's Rink, was so successful that another was scheduled for March. The monitors also arranged a sleighride in East Aurora and a skating and tobogganing party in Delaware Park. Many of the school dances are sponsored by this group. This year a novel idea originated. The monitors are now the proud wearers of light blue beer jackets which were purchased in early fall. These have become popular and are an effective means by which the other students may identify the monitors. Because of the work of this student administrative group, the minor, inharmonious details have been ironed out, and Lafayette runs on a smoother, pleasanter basis. 0l4L.ZL0?.'5 'N i if , . 2 ff' T.

DULMAGE a darling little class detests Robert Tayl Katherine Bruner, pretty, pe- tite Senior Class Secretary, attributes her success to her last year's term as Class Sec- retary and her alertness to her siesta from 12:14 to 12:56. She has no academic favorites, but typing is such a darling little class. With grace and poise, as well as beauty, Evelyn Dulmage, Senior Marshal, glides through the halls. She detests Robert Taylor, yet Tyrone Power is her idol. As a spectator she enjoys all types of sports. Lafayette, she says, ex- emplifies the very essence of friendship.

Inexperienced in a new situation, we had much to learn. From repeated contacts and sharing of problems we profited greatly. Now, after four years of climbing, let us pause to look down on the way we have come. Sometimes the path was steep and filled with seemingly insurmountable obstacles, at other times few difficulties presented themselves. In the beginning we knew little of each other and encountered a maze of daily situations which required much time simply for adjust- ment. By developing the ability to carry on independently, we learned a new lesson of self-reliance so essential in the right use of our newly- found freedom and broader opportunities. The end of the first year brought us to a plateau of victory. A warm feeling of satisfaction pervaded our thoughts in the attainment of many seemingly remote objectives. We were becoming accustomed' to climbing and ready to scale new heights. Through discovery of ways, to help each other up the grade our spirit of cooperation deep- ene . More difficult tasks loomed in the next year, we realized that our mettle was receiving its first acid test and that we must really fight to win. Success carried us up the hill to the half-way house, where, over a summer, we paused to rest. What had previously seemed so un- attainable, now appeared infinitely less difficult. A closer and happier acquaintance, a class solidarity, and a com- mon bond with fellow climbers developed when we were luniors. A team, united as Lafayetters with the ropes of Loyalty, Honor and Service, was pulling upward. We pressed on with new vigor and courage. Seriousness of purpose has marked the present year. Determination to reach our high goal is increasingly evident. We, as friends, with sympathetic understanding, proceed to the fulfillment of all those bright hopes which have continually spurred us on our way. Thus we reach the top, only to discover that our climbing has been in the easier foothills and the mountains still challenge our ambitions. But we have acquired a strength, a confidence, and an ability to meet the approaching ascents, which nothing can daunt. Your way leads to the mountains, mine again to the foothills to share, if I may, in the successes and problems of a new generation of students. But spiritually l shall always be with you as you explore the trails that beckon. .Qnic-U of X938 M ORACLE YEARBOOK 15 We of the graduating class of l938 are indeed happy to have you with us this evening. This is an occasion for which we have planned and worked long, and it is with eagerness that we present for your enjoyment this long-awaited program, when for the first time we come together as a class. It is our hope that our plans and preparations will have enabled us to spend with you a most pleasant and enjoyable evening. I During this last year at Lafayette, we have become increasingly con- scious of the turmoil and struggle which prevail throughout the civil- ized world today. Foreign political upheavals, constant war-threats, important domestic problems, are constantly kept before our minds in flaring newspaper headlines and radio talks. With these and other equally momentous occurrences taking place about us, we have felt it a primary duty to keep ourselves well informed in all these matters. Yet it cannot rightly be said that we are unprepared to face these problems. Our four years at Lafayette, spent in constant acquisition of knowledge in various subjects under the remarkably patient super- vision of Mr. Gott and our teachers, has instilled firmly within us that rare ability to see and think clearly in everything, to weigh carefully both sides of every question before drawing a final opinion. We are more grateful than we can express for all that has been done for us, and can only hope that in time we shall be able to justify if not exceed the confidence and faith in us expressed by our faculty. From this all-important pathway of our lives, our courses will begin to take more definite form, branching out in countless directions. We shall no longer be a united class, progressing together as a unit in all we do. We shall have to accustom ourselves to take our places as self- dependent individuals in the world. For some of us fate and oppor- tunity have decreed still higher education, through which we may broaden our limited knowledge and open the way for greater success in our undertakings. Still there are numerous others, destined for im- mediate entrance into the world of affairs and the well-known school of hard knocks who must take it upon themselves to be more quickly assimilated into adult life. No matter how diversified our paths may become, regardless of what may be our ultimate destination, we shall always be united by the common bond of Lafayette tradition, so deeply imprinted in our minds during our brief stay here. In our fields of life, irrespective of their type, we may be proud and more than slightly thankful for the extensiveness of our high-school training. Traditions become outmoded eventually and must give place to new ones. We can say only that we sincerely hope that the classes who follow us will continue to uphold and cherish the splendid ideals of Loyalty, Honor and Service which have for so long been a tradition at Lafayette and which are our common heritage. ln our separate, we, the class of 1938, will in all circumstances endeavor to hold in mind these principles, and hope that by this observance, we may be- come better citizens and be able to give better service to our fellow for 16 THE LAFAYETTE HI Ann Cloak In September of the year 1934, our favorite freshmen were welcomed for the first time by Mr. Gott into his Plant. Conspicuously new, long pants, loud shirts, suit coats, bright colored make-up, and nervous thumb-twiddling children were to be seen throughout the large horseshoe-shaped assembly. M. Boland was there as was R. Spear. S. Birzon was seen passing notes to l. Davis. E. Wort- ham's, W. lardine's, and A. Clamp's STGRY OF THE COLORFUL hair was the cause of much comment. C. Lumsden, F. Ciccarelli, and A. Haley were comparing their new bill folds. M. Gram had already started worry- ing about her senior exams. After l5 minutes of dazzled searching, D. Carestio and P. Dellinger finally found Cto their dismayj, that Rm. 32 was situated in the basement. B. Cole and M. Feinsinger startled Lafayette audiences with their extraordinary talents in the school mu- sical. lune exams ended our initial year at Lafayette. ln the fall of l935, the sophisticated sophomores returned. Having stumbled through Algebra, Biology, and Latin, they were now headed for course No. 2, which contained Caesar, Geometry, and the annals of Ancient History. C. lacobs glid- ed through the halls quoting Caesar, while Cf. Allen, S. Fuller, and C. Brown were in a corner in Rm. 3 trying to prove two triangles congruent by S. A. S. Teachers were in a guandary as to what to do about A. L. Smith and A. O. Smith, F. Cleary and R. Cleary. From the school of prac- tice came M. Cfrabau, C. Cfeorgi, E. Thom and A. White. Also F. Breese, D. Beyer, C. lmpelliter, and E. Burley. W. Dahlke, M. Staley, H. lanis, and l. Battles played on the hockey team. M. R. Lavin's hair was speculated upon and there were Some of the girls in 1934. ORACLE YEARBOOK 17 CLASS CDF 1938 those who swore that she had a different wig for every day in the week. G. Kener and P. Devio asked I. Gorman and W. O'Brian if they were ill when they started counting the cups in the trophy case. I. Guarino sang in the Glee Club, while M. Freedman, I. Giovino, P. Cecala did a bit of tooting in the band. W. Denny, H. Clement, and L. Donnelly spent some of their valuable moments indulged in a fierce paper-wad battle which greatly dis- turbed F. Werman, l. Tripi, A. Petrella and A. Bellinger. Many sore fingers were the result of the friendly handshake of l. Puleo, who nonchalantly squeezes your hand until the bones crack. E. Maggio, W. Karg, and R. Weir, devoted their time to the homeroom basketball team, while A. Wooler, D. Meier, S. Walker, and R. Hinney devoted their valuable minutes to their textbooks. Exams and vacation followed. Again we come back, with browned faces and brush hair cuts, to course No. 3 known to the H. S. Stud as the term of the folly lunior. Cicero, Physics, and Int. Alg. were waiting for us to hurdle them. We had lost part of our number in the lune exams but had gained V. Ogden, M. Hebard, and D. Smith, who had decided to adopt the five-year plan. I. Patterson's soprano voice was heard when she sang Some of the boys in 1934. George Deming in the assembly. H. Fackler again won honors in the declamation contest. B. Marshall was pretty shaky when he went up on tne stage to get a check for a dollar. He wrote the lunior song. B. Karg was nominated All-High in Basketball, while C. Brooks made his major in Tennis. l. Hurst, B. Vaughan, l. Styers, K. Sher- wood, D. Reed, and M. Ricotta supported the girls' sports. C. Cherry made the All- l8 THE LAFAYETTE CLASS HISTORY Ccontinuedj High Football Team but entered Nichols the following September. K. Hooley could be found many times in the middle of a crowd. It was his YoYo that drew the crowds. R. O'Brian resolved to find an- other place in which to carry on his leepin'. W. Zavitz and M. Getz started what is known as another enduring romance at Lafayette. Through the efforts of G. Cohen, Lafayette was the only school in Buffalo to have moving pictures of their football team. lunior exams and the warm months followed. The class of '38 had two weeks less to enjoy their Senior year because of the germ that loitered over the city during the month of Septemberf We started the old grind l4 days late but we made it our business to make up the loss by doing dou- ble work. We were now Seniors, the body that sets the examples for the lower classes. Every Senior cooperated in doing his best to keep up the standards expected of him. Rm. 3 went to town in the field of sports. A. Wooler, l. Swain, V. Beardsell, l . Puleo, W. Dahlke, D. Sherwood, B. Brown, D. Copeland, F. Saeli-, and E. Riselay made their major L in football. W. Meese was unanimously elected Editor-in-Chief of the Oracle. Z. Amdur and E. lanis jumped ahead a year to join us. On the cafeteria squad were l . Seigal, E. Callahan, P. Callahan, I. Rumizen and F. Spezio. l . Boswell, A. Haley, R. Goodman, E. Daluiso, and G. Deming were approved of as cheer leaders. N. Cohn was the Belle of Mr. Geib's 4th hour Intermediate class. Al Corry helped put the rowing team over the top, while C. Sherman talked his debating team into victory. R. Reidpath, R. Dunbar, and G. lones suggested that they adopt Rm. 8a as their homeroom. The friendships be- tween B. Heinicke and P. Bolza, P. Hengerer and V. Hutchinson, C. Barberio and l. Parrish, M. Fries and F. Crossman grew stronger in their last year. l. Serns, S. Kaminker and B. Heller agreed to break the tardiness record. H. Covert was hailed as the human back-scratcher. M. Benson, and I. Booker came from out of town and enrolled at Lafayette. l . Compo also enrolled at Lafayette and won public acclaim for her marvelous feats as Cheer Leader. l . Davis was one of the CKJ nit Wits. And now as we complete the history of the class of 1938, we wonder, as we pass through the halls, into what field each of us will venture. Both the Senior Girls and Boys enjoyed their years at Lafayette and we are sure that in years to come, they will look back to the Old Plant with a feeling that cannot be expressed. 0000 ORACLE YEARBOOK 19 EUGENE E.

University ot Buffalo 46 THE LAFAYETTE 62444 790-em We face a thousand different fates And ask, Which road to fame and glory? Enlighten us to what awaits! What untimely haste is here, My children? quoth the sages hoary. Time enough to nurture fear! But we are anxious, eager souls, lntolerant of patient graces. llluminate the pathway to our goals! Enlightenment is born of learning And would tire the blackest placesg But light evades an empty yearning. It we shall be content to wait, Will wisdom come as of today? Must we languish for our tate? Destiny will seek you out The while you titfully do pray. Knowledge is your own, ne'er doubt. ORACLE YEARBOOK 47 Charlotte Georgi Every year at this time, it becomes the honor and privilege, although a rather sad duty, of some one person to deliver the Valedictory, a last Farewell to this, our Lafayette. From this time forth, we face the world, not as high school students, but, at least in some measure, as educated citizens in our respective communities, ready to assume intelli- gently the responsibilities and burdens of government. Perhaps it would be fitting, since We are standing on the threshold of a new experience in our lives, to take inventory of our assets and liabilities, before We venture forth. During our four years at Lafayette, while we have been engaged in our various studies and sports, We have not only developed mentally but morally, for knowledge formulates character. From the splendid examples set us by our instructors, their friendly and expert guidance, and the always helpful advice of Mr. Gott, we have been unconsciously in- fluenced toward a richer, fuller life. This daily contact we lose, but their influences have become an integral part in our natures. We have also enjoyed many happy experiences with the many friends we have made here, friendships which may be severed, but whose memories can never fade. Through our years here we have been imbued with the old and honorable traditions which are Lafayette's alone. Memorial Day, Arbor Day, Class Day, all these will have special and lasting significance. Inspired by our Lafayette motto, LOYALTY, HONOR, AND SERVICE, We are challenged and stimulated to greater achievements. Equipped thus, mentally, morally, and spiritually, we go to take our part in these troubled modern times, times which are shadowed by the impending threat of war. We know not what the future holds. Some of us will go on to higher institutes of learning, others will go directly into the business world. But Whatever divergent paths we take, we shall be richer and wiser for the years we have spent in Lafayette. With these thoughts uppermost in our minds, and with our hearts filled with gratitude, we say Farewell to that which embodies the fondest memories of our youth, LAFAYETTE. Wfec6'cz'c+2 48 THE LAFAYETTE Ellen Bryans, historian of her graduating class at School 52, has added to her honors the position ot Secretary ot the lunior Class. This competent, dark-haired lunior likes horses, dancing and popular singer, K. Baker. George Gundlach, mildly-disposed Treasurer of the Iunior Class, is a tour star man in scientific research at Lafayette. A graduate of School 64, this genial, dark- complexioned person is an ardent tennis player. anim Office U Junior Prexy Hugh Kennedy, graduate of School 64, is among other things a sea- soned traveler, veteran ot three European tours. This popular, witty gentleman, a harmonica virtuoso, is an able cartoonist. Sophisticated lunior Vice-President Lor- na I-Iilson, graduate of School 19, has al- ways been an active participant in club activities. Her interests of the moment are sports, collecting china animals and ac- quiring a deep tan. 4 1 EllSStS As a student of Lafayette, I am lan heir to all her possessions, her spirit, her lofty ideals, her time hallowed traditions. Her slogan Loyalty, Honor, Service, is my choicest heritage.

An all-water athlete while here, he was a four-star crew and swimming man and president ot his Senior class. A portrait of success in athletic fields is Latayette's popular per- sonality, IAN MacLEAN. As high diver, football player, profes- sional acrobat, and valuable aid to physical instructors, he has been a generous contributor ot honor and pride to his Alma One of Lafayette's unique pos- sessions is the man with the ele- vator. A very few know his name to be VINCENT CONELLY, but the tamiliar Oscar will head his bid to posterity. Seldom are such gitts of humor and discre- tion met in one personp he is the confidant of all students, and quite possibly the teachers. Mater. Navy-Iunior and Lafayette Senior IEAN COMPO, the comely cheer leader at all the football games, is per- haps the original traveling schoolgirl. She has not spent more than two consecutive years in any one place, having attended schools in Panama, Pensacolo, Long Beach, Norfolk, Coronado, and Boston. VIRGINIA Katherine Cornell GREATHEAD-HUTCHINSON, the demure little southern girl who is defi- nitely not the type on whom we Yankees lavish the Sledge-hammer blow of good fellowship, aspires to tread the boards of the legitimate theater in future days. When asked when she was dramatically inspired she modestly retorted: Oh, I just woke up one morning and there I was. MARION FEINSINGER, better known on the national broadcasting network system as Marion Morgan, I'Ielen's little sister, is a truly glamorous bud of The Old Plant. She gratefully attributes the discovery of her latent talent to Mr. Kolassa, who gave her a start in School Musicals. We think she will go a long way. ANNE CLOAK, sedate and dignified Senior Class Historian, possesses, among many other talents, that of prophetic speech. This modern Cassandra has made but one error, when she said that certain other people would become blues-sing ers in the near future. Mild-tobacco-connoisseur, IOHN BATTAGLIA, the proud possessor of a mean backhand tennis stroke and a Sweet Briar pipe, is always heard when driving his '28 Nash. The brakes are reluctant, the doors undecided, but we'll take a ride with Long lohn anytime . . . if we're asked. GORDON COHEN '39 is the school's photographic authority. He has sponsored Behind the Camera in the Triangle, the unigue Scholastic News Reel and many of the candid shots on the division pages ot the '38 Oracle. For his modesty and convincing manner of speech Lafayette is proud of ROSS WESTON. Brilliantly he has competed in the Boys' Oratorical Contest, and the sincere and effec- tive delivery of his original essay, The Means Determine the End was awarded top honors in the '38 city-wide competition. EDDIE MAGGIO, the paragon of Lafayette's swing pride, is carrying on the tradi- tion ot a family of musicians. Inspired by his talent at the clarinet and saxophone, the maestro enjoys managing his musical nine and dance hall of his own. iifiw UllEllllZllIUNE Our lcinships here will soon be ended 1 And into life we'll make our way Our friendships here will all be severed l And fade as does the dying day.

Among the year's activities of the paper was a dance, which was absolutely free for those students who had subscribed to the Triangle. A second Triangle Tone News, sponsored by the students, reviewing some of the fall sports' highlights, was shown at the Boys' Letter Day Program. On December 4, 1937, a great honor was bestowed upon the school when Willard Tornow was elected president of the Western New York lnterscholastic Press Association. The coed-co-editor, Betty l-leinike, is the first girl in the history of the Triangle to write a boys' sports columnfnamely the Scoreboard. The third issue was reduced to six pages and the paper's size continued as such for the remainder of the year. A year-long contest was sponsored by the Triangle to reward those who had written over a certain number of inches of published news material.

Whichter ORCHESTRA 70 THE LAFAYETTE CHORUS 0 Throughout the winter, Mr. locoy's two Chorus classes have been singing diligently in preparation for Spring performancesi n the future. They banded together for amemorable lower school assembly program early this season, in which Ianice Patterson sang Morning by Oley Speaks, and the Chorus sang The Sea Has lts Pearl, and My lohnnie Was a Shoemaker. A selected group of the girls sang for the Dramatic Club program on May l9. These included Evelyn Bradley, Elvera Cvuercio, Ruth Cfretsinger, Bernice Davis, Margaret Schultz, Ruth Dunkirk, Betty L. Smith, Dorothy Reed, Virginia Hutchinson, and lanice Patterson. o Under the expert guidance of Mr. Camden Monroe the Science Club meets every Thursday afternoon. Since December l the club, unlike the others in the school, has restricted its membership as new members to meet rigid qualifications requiring the majority vote of club. SCIENCE CLUB This club was founded solely as an educational and in- structive group. lt choses weekly a different discussion topic which will in- terest the individual members. At one of themeetingsCharles Whitcher, boy her- petologist, gave a very unusual speech on his two six-foot snakes, while talk- ing, he demonstrat- ed with the two snakes wrapped around his neck. ORACLE YEARBOOK 71 f' fflfrfk. k3s:t-I.0. DRAMATIC CLUB 0 Ranking high in the group of popular scholastic activities stands the Dramatic Club. Under the leadership of Miss Wechter, the club endeavors to acquaint the members with facts about the theater, actors, and productions, On May 19, the following plays were given: NERVES by lohn Farrar, and REHEARSAL by Christopher Morley. The highlight of this year's activities was an invitation to see a preview of the play, SPRlNG DANCE, given by the University of Buffalo. The officers of the club are Helen Fackler, President, lack Boswell, Vice-President, Harriet Wile, Secretary, and Kenneth Smith, Treasurer. 0 When the weather is fair the Sketch Club enjoys trips to the nearby countryside. lts purposes are the mental training in accuracy, and exercise in making hard work inter- esting. Hugh Kennedy is chairman of the group, and lrving Goodman, Angeline Man- tione, Frances Woodworth and Miss Davis compose the executive committee. SKETCH CLUB 72 THE LAFAYETTE Marjorie Schaffer President Natalie Cohen Sec.-Treasurer Miss Hartzell Advisor RIDING CLUB o Under the capable leadership of its advisor, Miss l-lartzell, the Riding Club members ride each week at the Cavalry in winter, and at Spruceland's Academy in the spring. Transportation to the latter is provided in the form of a truck. The trails which the eques- trians follow at Orchard Park are in the midst of green wooded hills in the country. Cn several rides new trails have been blazed for future use. Early in the spring a joint meeting was held between the officers of the Riding Clubs of Bennett and Lafayette High Schools at which ideas were exchanged on conducting clubs in a more interesting manner. Arrangements have been made for a club luncheon, ride, and picnic in the near future. 0 ln 1937, Le Cercle Francais was reorganized under the leadership of Miss B. Gold- stein. For the purpose of entertainment, much time is spent singing French songs, playing French games, studying and reading newspaper clippings. FRENCH CLUB , ..

By joining the Eastman Camera Club Service, the group has profited by many enjoyable and instructive programs. The in- formal pictures in the Oracle this year were taken by the Photography Club. 0 The Girl Reserves, a national organization, and a branch of the Young Women's Christian Association, is very active in Lafayette. Under the leadership of Miss lulg the members meet every Friday. As junior members of the Y. W. C. A. they have enjoyed many of its privileges. Many entertaining and educational meetings have been held during the year, One of the most interesting speakers was Mrs. Williams, Councellor at Bennett l-ligh School, who gave an informal talk on The Art of Make-Up. GIRL RESERVES Clara Randazzo President Mary Genovese Sec.-Treasurer Martha Seitz Member-at-Large Miss Ruth Block Councellor 74 THE LAFAYETTE CHESS CLUB JUNIOR-SENIOR HI-Y HISTORY FORUM O This year the Chess Club of Lafayette was a splendid organization, through the capable man- agement ot Sherwood Hil- ler. Although it did not enter the All-High Tourna- ment the club was divided into two teams: they held a tournament between them. Chess problems were divided and pre- sented to the members. 0 Our Lafayette l-li-Y Club, which has the dis- tinction of being the first group of its kind in New York State, having been formed under the capable direction of Cap Mellen, has had a successful so- cial and educational sea- son. The following serve as officers: President, Charles W. Moore, Vice- President, William Mc- Leang Secretary, Vincent Tripig and Treasurer, Donald F. MacKenzie. O The History Forum Club discusses problems which are suggested by the sec- retary, Caryl Coheng the marshall, Stuart Walkerg the faculty advisors and the members. Although this is only the first year of its existence, the club has been very successful and popular. The directors ot this group are Norma Grill, Bernice Ziff, Louis Gallo, and lames Tedescog the advisor is Miss Frances Pitt. ORACLE YEAR BOOK 75 0 During the year, the Negative and Affirmative shared the honors, both winning one debate. The subjects were the Neutrali- ty Law, and Compulsory Automobile lnsurance. La- fayette placed fifth. Mem- bers of the Debate Team were Virginia Hutchinson, Thomas Osborn, Donald MacKenzie, Laurence Golden, Sally Levy, Elinor Lapat, Carl Sherman, and Anatole Shapiro. 0 The exclusive Vergil Club, sponsored by Miss Marian Clark and con- ducted by Robert Malin, President, and Richard Sherwood, Secretary, meets weekly to discuss Greek philosophy and Ro- man mythology. 0 Under the administra- tion of Eric Beu, President: lohn Unterecker, Vice- President, and Margaret Dionne, Secretary-Treas urerg the German Club has enjoyed a varied pro- gram ranging from musi- cal selections to discus- sions of eminent Germans. The group is ably spon- sored by Miss Schultz, DEBATE TEAM VIRGIL CLUB GERMAN CLUB 76 THE LAFAYETTE ISRAEL LENZNEI2 Cherubic Israel Lenzner, capable cox of the West-side Rowing Club, employs his snappy black eyes and powerful voice to direct the oarsmen at practice. I-Ie trains with the crew twice a day and cheers the boys on during games, aspiring to the day when he will row himself instead of coxing. CAPTAIN VIC BEARDSELL Vic, weight4l8O pounds, heighte5 feet IO inches, who was heralded as a potential 'lAll-High footballer early in the season, unmistakably proved to his critics that his ability was not overrated. A scoring threat every time he received the ball, this half- back was the sparkplug of the Violet's first two football victories. A wrenchedknee benched him for the remainder of the season. AHHHQEE Hail Lafayette-the victory is won, Wide fling the flags-the battle is done. Wave the Violet and Whitep never forgei She is our queeniLafayette. THE LAFAYETTE 78 M WW - 4 FOOTBALL TEAM og With a promising team, and a thorough determination to win the Harvard Cup before the retirement of Coach Hans Flygare, our valiant group of football stalwarts opened the season with a plucky 12-O victory over Grover Cleveland. In a spectacular game with Riverside, a one point margin resulted in a 13-12 victory for the battered Violets. Minus the services of seven regulars, the aftermath of the Riverside victory, a two point lead gained through a touchback in the second quarter proved to be the only score in the win over McKinley. The following week the undefeated Lafayetters received their first set- back by their archrivals, Masten, who proved to be the stronger by gaining a 7-O win. In the last game of the regular schedule, Hutchinson sent the Violets down to a 12-O defeat. This year two leagues were organized among the twelve high schools, six teams in each league. At the end of the five game schedule, the first two leaders of one division were to meet the respective two leaders of the other division on Thanksgiving Day. A dead- lock for second place necessitated a playoff with Riverside who revenged its former def feat by winning over Lafayette l2-O. ln all fairness to the team and to its coach, injuries were the cause of the late season lapse. At one time or another, every man on the varsity team was on the injured list. ORACLE YEARBOOK 79 ED RISELAY A A A very fast end, 150 pounds, 5 feet 11 inches, Ed was noted for streaking down the field to tackle an opponent attempting to run back a punt. An in- jured knee benched him for the last two games. WALTER DAHLKE Standing 5 feet, 11213 inches and weighing 175 pounds, Walt was a better defensive than offensive end. Although only aver- age in pass receiving, Dahlke broke up many plays with his deadly - - tackles. AL CORRY4A stalwart, good-looking linesman, 183 pounds, 6 feet 1 inch, Al played most of the line posi- tions. During the season he played right guard, left guard, right tackle and left end. Ankle injuries benched him for the Grover Cleveland tussle. AL WOOLER-The giant of the team, Al, 173 pounds, 6feet316 inches, played bang-up football, both defensively and offensively. A wrenched knee benched him for the Hutch gamep yet he received honorable mention in the All-High football ratings. 1AN SCOTTY MacLEAN - A strong, husky guard, Scotty, 165 pounds, 5 feet 10 inches, hit a streak of ill luck in mid-season. A slight brain concussion and an injured hip caused the team to lose his serv- ices for the Riverside, Mc- Kinley, and Hutch games. IOE PULEO The strong man of the team, good-natured 1oe punted and passed be- sides playing tackle. An injured foot debarred him from the Grover Cleve- land game, but a fine . . comeback led him to a football and rowing scholarship to Syracuse University. EDGAR BUD BROWNAThe heavyweight of the team in September, Bud, 228 pounds, 6 feet, played in two positions, tackle and center. His major achievement came at the close of the season, when 33 pounds of excess tat were lost. JOHN SWAIN-A lightweight compared to other high school guards, Swain packed plenty of fight in his 5 foot, 9 inch, 155 pound frame. He became an early-season favorite with the fans when he blocked and recovered a kick for a touchdown against Grover Cleveland. DICK SHERWOOD The smallest man on the line, and the lightest cen- ter in the league, Dick, weight 153 pounds, height 5 feet 'Zyl inches, played a spirited game. VARSITY GRADUATES 80 THE LAFAYETTE , . BASKETBALL TEAM I Heralded as the chief challenger to the Yale Cup before the opening game, the l937-38 basketball team was better than final tabulations reveal. ln the first game of the season the speedy, spectacular Hutch laddies swamped the Violets 60-33. Victorious over Emerson 35-25, the Lafayetters Won their second straight game by routing an East quintet 42-25. lt seemed that the team had finally hit its winning stride, but a wide-awake Seneca outfit upset the favored Lafayetters by a 37-27 score. A win over McKinley respirited the homesters, but in their next start, spotty officiating resulted in a 29-27 defeat by South Park. ln a crucial game with Bennett, the Violets were overcome 24-21 but only after a game battle. A win over Grover Cleveland by a 25-22 margin, and a defeat at the hands of Burgard 26-23, placed the Violet and Whites in the second divi- sion. ln the final three games, Lafayette routed Technical 45-2l, outlasted its archrivals Fosdick-Masten 30-27 and conquered Riverside 32-21. With seven Wins and five losses, several of which were lost by two or three point differences, the Lafayette basketball team finished in fourth position. Although pre- season predictions in the win and lose columns failed, the Violets are the second best offensive team of the series with 377 points. ORACLE YEARBOOK 81 ALBERT WESTLEY-Learn ing his basketball princi- ples at School 52, Westley, height 5 feet 9M inches, was the most publicized and feared Violet player. A dead shot when hot , Al was our highest scorer and fourth highest in the league with a score of 111 points. This offensive abil- ity earned him a Buffalo Times All-High second team berth. - IOHN BATTAGLIA - Standing 5 feet ll Winches, Battaglia, who earned a first team berth the first year he joined the squad, was a better defensive than offensive player. Learning basketball at the Y. M. C. A. and School 77, .lohn enjoyed uroughing it, but came out of his many mixups long enough to score 49 points during the season. DONALD BEYER-The best Violet all-around basketball representative, Captain Beyer, height 5 feet 11 inches, was the sec- ond best offensive star on the team and seventh highest scorer in the league with 102 points. For this offensive con- sisten cy and his intelligent defensive tactics, Don was awarded a Courier Ex- press All-High second team guard position. ALBERT WOOLER - Standing 6 feet 3 inches, Albert was a distinct scor- ing threat tothe opponents, but unluckily it was not until the last game of the season that Wooler was able to use his height to an offensive advantage. VARSITY GRADUATES WEST SIDE ROWING CREW CHEER LEADERS 82 THE LAFAYETTE - t BOYS' SWIMMING TEAM o ln the interscholastic meets, the Lafayette swimming team has had one defeat, South Park 425, Lafayette 325, one forfeit-victory over Grover Cleveland, and brilliant triumphs over East 46-29, Riverside 38-37, and Hutchinson 53-22. At this Writing a single meet with Bennett and the All-High competition remain on the schedule. To Coach Rogers, the manager, and the members of the squad, all of whom worked with energy and success, are due the praise and gratitude of the student body. o Under the able direction of Mrs. 0. Black, the Violet and White teams were chosen. Olma lean Thaxter was chosen to captain the Violets and Emma Moore was the White captain. Urged on by the enthusiasm of Mrs. Black the teams entered into keen competi- tion and the Whites were victorious by a narrow margin. There were also two freshman teams that met three times a week for two Weeks. Many potential Olympic stars have been discovered among the girls. Regular practice and expert instruction have greatly aided the girls in the perfection of their strokes and timing.

Miss Riegel has posted tentative team ratings, and the annual Homeroom Circuit will soon bring renewed competition, as Juniors and Seniors battle indiscriminately among themselves. Waiting players form a competent gallery, and sideline comments are enlightening. So, with last year's teams augmented by this year's sophomores, this present season offers keen pleasure and much action. GIRLS' BASEBALL ORACLE YEARBOOK 85 GIRLS' BASKETBALL 0 Both lunior and Senior girls turned out in large numbers for the girls' l938 basketball season. After a few weeks of brushing up on their game, under the direction of Miss Riegel, various homeroom teams were chosen. Each team had some excellent players, and the final scores usually were very close. The prospective Violet and White teams have not been chosen, but will consist of the outstanding players among the girls. 0 During the fall and winter months, the volleyball enthusiasts competed for supremacy in the gyms. Preceding the selection of the teams, there was much practice. Betty O'Brian was chosen captain of the Violets and Ruth Dunkirk was chosen captain of the Whites. Finally, when the selection was made the teams played many fast and thrilling games. The Violet team, although meeting with much competition, was victorious.

Every page reflects the inspired work of the editor, William Meese, and his staff. And while the equally arduous tasks of the business manager, Donald Hodgman, may not be quite so apparent, it is well to remember that the boolc would never have been pub- lished save for his persistent endeavors in organizing the cash, 0 And we, who have been privileged to woric with you, have enjoyed every step of the way. For no matter how many year- boolcs we may have published in the thirty years we have been specializing in this exacting field, every college annual is a challenge in itself. A challenge to our ability to work with the staffs charged with its creation, a challenge to our ingenuity to assist in its originality of format and content, a challenge to our capacity to organize the eight essential gears in yearbook pro- duction so that a powerful and distinctive result is assured. o So we cannot close the last forms of this edition without endeavoring to say in cold type how warmly we have enjoyed working with you, how masterful a job we feel you have done, and how fervently we look forward to worlcing with future Oracle staffs with the same sincerity of purpose which has signalized the creation of this boolc from cover to cover.
