Our appreciation of the privilege given us at that time has increased with the passing of our Junior and Senior years. To us it has meant more than just the beauty of the building. It has meant greater opportuni- ties to enrich our lives, not only with learning, but with fun, friendship, and other interests. The time will come when we will wish to relive our youth, and to capture again the spirit and gaiety that traditionally belong to the young in heart antl mind. May this Lodestone with its pictorial, as well as written, history of three years spent in work and play, afford the means for our retro- spection.

Hemperly, editor o f the first Lode- stone, we dedicate this, the ic)4i edition. As the guiding factor of the ' 29 yearbook , the first annual to bear the name Lodestone; and as a faculty member who has mate- rially aided this class in many of its e orts, we honor him. Any Lodestone means more to its class than just a cloth-bound or paper-covered boo . As Mr. Hemperly edited that yearboo of twelve years ago, it must have We uiute nrouan the ( c f amerct S £, embodied for hnn the spirit, the ideals, and the hopes of the 7 9 9 graduating class. For lis of i94i, perhaps the best ii ' iiy to catch that spirit is to page quickly through the illustrated record of L. H. S. in 1929. The hoo { itself was an eighty-seven page, paper- bound volume, with the outside cover in red and blue. The dedication was to Miss Cecelia K. Bohr. Then fol- lowed the faculty; two hundred four Seniors: the ath- letics of L. H. S., consisting of football, girls ' and boys ' basketball, and track,; the activities with thirteen clubs mentioned; and last, but not least, a section labeled Jokes. It was from this beginning that our present Lodestoxf. grew. We wish to pay tribute to that beginning and to the boy, now a man, who was its editor.

HEDGE CONGRATULATIONS and best wishes to the members of the Class of 1941. The road to graduation has not been without difficul- ties. The capacity and willingness to meet these difficulties have paved the way to useful careers that lie ahead. Opportunities for service are awaiting the graduates. It is not my wish that all the paths that lie ahead shall be smooth. That would not be life. It is rather my wish that the members of the Class of 1941 shall meet their opportunities and obligations in a manner that will bring honor to themselves and reflect glory and credit to their school.

J hfori COZY library, a crackling fire, a cold winter ' s night — a perfect setting for the thoughts that pass in rapid succession through the minds of two graduates of the class of ' 41 as they turn the pages of an old album. The volume is well-worn, for it represents three years — three vital years — in the lives of our two friends. Between its covers they find countless reminders of a past very dear to ihem. The first scene which meets their eyes is that of a frightened group of sophomores entering a new and modern Lebanon High School. It was not long before these sopho- mores were initiated into the activities of their Alma Mater, and they became an in- tegral part of their school ' s social life. For here the two find colorful representations of dances, climaxed bv the picturesque Ciarden Party and the May Hop, with the beautiful May Queen and her court. They see their own class gathered at the spectacular Sopho- more Hop. A necessary antecedent to these and other successful undertakings, was the organization of the sophomore class, as rep- resented bv the image of Tony Baal, their president, brought to view with the turning of the next page. Following this was a like- ness of their adviser, Mr. Kadel. Here they see in miniature a sparkling replica of the School Play, Lady Spitfire, which gave their talented classmates the first opportunity to display their Thespian ability. As a contrast to this production, they ob- serve an eerie figure, which, upon closer in- spection, proves to be The Ghost of Lolly- pop Bay. Then they see a photograph of the first meeting of the newly-formed Student Senate, which was designed to provide ' both pleasures and facilities for all classes in the coming years. After a swift glance at the summer months, they see the class reorganizing under the guidance of Mr. Savage, and selecting as their leader Polly Lou Penman. The next page reveals a panorama depict- ing the dedication of the magnificent stadium which became the background for many ath- letic scenes, including football and baseball games, track meets, and tennis matches. They leaf quickly through the display of sports events of the year until they reach the y portrayal of the exciting and tense leap to State Basketball Championship, with several juniors skillfully contributing their ability. The choral groups now claim the attention of our two graduates, as, under the direction of Miss Kleinfelter, they presented the stirring and awe-inspiring oratorio the Messiah by Handel. Not satisfied with singing only this difficult work, the combined choruses suc- cessfully produced the Student Prince, col- orful in music, in action, and in costume. This romantic tale of Old Heidelberg, pre- sented with a finesse never before ecqualed in L. H. S., provided the subject for a series of remarkable portraits, the most striking of which was one of a junior in the title role. As the friends turn the page, their eyes fall upon an illustration of the typical brotherly spat which formed the nucleus of the School Play of that year, China Blue Eyes. As a supplement to this photograph, they find one of his majesty the frog, who also had his part in the sprightly comedy presentation. Leafing on, they come to a depiction of the Southern District Band Festival which was held in Lebanon High March 28, 29, and 30. Portraits of many of the out-of-town guests, of the two distinguished conductors, and of the try-outs and rehearsals are noticed and exclaimed over. The grandeur of the formal concert which followed is so well portrayed that the flow of music seems to return to the graduates as they bend over their album. Side by side with these portraits, they find another example of Lebanon High School ' s playing host, with the illustrations of the Forensic Contests held in April. They recall the honors that went to their classmates as they see the faces of the winners. Paging backward, they discover some pic- tures they had missed in their eagerness to see the scenes of the basketball triumph. Scar- let O ' Haras, Martha Washingtons, and scare- crows live again as, amid the gaiety of the Twelfth Night Costume Party, they smile at the two spectators from the annals of time. As they draw near to the close of this sec- tion of their high school life, they are pleas- antly reminded of an unusual spectacle which took place in their own stadium. The mag- nificent pageant in conjunction with the Bi- centennial Celebration of Lebanon, which was wholeheartedly supported, not only in 49 attendance, but also by actua l participation of the members of their class, is vividly mir- rored. Our onlookers now cast their eyes upon the class of 41 as they returned to complete the last lap in their educational metamorphosis, under the spirited leadership of Ed Neal and the capable direction of Mr. Tittle. They no- tice that the first project undertaken in this their last year is the production of the first mystery drama to be given in L. H. S. — The Cat and the Canary. Dead bodies falling out of secret panels, unearthly voices haunting the atmosphere, disputed wills, lovely heir- esses, eerie grandfather ' s clocks, easily fright- ened heroes — all pass by in ghostly review to startle their imaginations once more. All these scenes bring to their minds the overflow crowd which witnessed the first sell-out per- formance in their school ' s history. In correlation with outstanding achieve- ments, they observe the massed reel and blue choral groups offering a distingu ished Au- tumn Music Festival to the public. Following this event, they catch a glimpse of Old Saint Nick, impersonated by Robert Keller, handing out humorous and apt, but somewhat tactless, gifts at the Senior Class Party just before the Christmas vacation. On the next page they perceive the audi- torium tense with excitement as Mr. Zim- merman is about to announce Robert Don- ough as first prize-winner in the twenty-first annual Cyrus G. Ranch Boys ' Oratorical Con- test. Opposite this picture, they find the same scene re-enacted with Marjorie Frantz the leading figure in the Girls ' Oratorical Con- test, which took place a month later. The camera within a camera calls them back to the time when the school was up- roariously observing itself in classrooms and on the streets of town in the so-called Local Movies. Self-conscious giggles and rehearsed recitations were evident in this benefit film which showed Lebanon to itself as it really is. The mademoiselle from the Continent then makes her appearance — a lovely little lady with a French accent and a propensity for seemingly throwing away money; though she was only trying to prove her sincere affection for the son of an ordinary American family. At the sight of her, the two perusers recall the splendid interpretation of The Adorable Spendthrift, one of the most successful School Plays to make its debut behind Leb- anon High ' s footlights. Beside this, they see a khaki-clad audience enjoying the skillful presentation. They view with happy thoughts the pic- torial remembrance of L. H. S. as it enter- tained the Southern District Convention of Student Participation in School Government, which was held in April. Scenes appear show- ing various groups discussing ramifications of the theme, Student Advancement of De- mocracy. A dance conducted in an elabor- ately-decorated gymnasium is seen to climax this noteworthy gathering of students. Something unusual in a social function is strikingly brought before them as they come upon the gay parasols and glowing lanterns of old China at their last Spring Dance. The two observers are able to sense the growing excitement in their classmates as they prepare for the final episode in their academic career. They can see much hilarity and mirth, as well as some serious moments, in the pictures of Senior Color Day. Then the two are filled with tender and romantic memories as the contents of the album bring back the carefree laughter of their last and most sumptuous social event — the Senior Banquet. They see the Hershey Golf Club, lavishly decorated in crimson and gold, and the boys and girls dancing to the strains of soft music. Now they come to the last of the memory- filled pages, where they see impressive por- traits of serious and sedate graduates in caps and gowns, receiving their diplomas. The hearts of the two are filled to over- flowing with memories, and their eyes are moist, as, after having relived one of the most exciting and fim-fiUed chapters of their lives, they at last close the well-worn pages of time. 5 Iic junior L taSS FRANKLIN BAMBERGER, President ALLEN ROTHERMEL, Vice-President JOYCE BAIER, Secretary HAROLD SPECK, Treasurer MR. HEMPERLY, Dean Franklin Banibcrjzcr Joyce Baicr Allen Rothermel Harold Speck D JUNIOR HISTORY HE jolly junior class has proved to be outstanding and shows promise of becom- ing even a more outstanding senior class. This plucky class of 42 has shown its influence in fields of football, basketball, track, and wres- tling. Their acting ability was demonstrated when several juniors were chosen for promi- nent parts in the School Play. Their attend- ance at plays, musical productions, games, dances, and entertainments sponsored by the school was heartening to upper and lower classmen. The Junior Class Party was a bril- liant success and will long be remembered. Our junior lads and lassies have been on the honor roll se eral times throughout the year. This proves that the gray matter is abundant and is growing greater as the years roll by. Entering high school is like taking a dive from a diving board. The sophomore year is a starting point where one takes the leap. If one makes a start from a sound foundation and takes a good spring, one will probably go places. During one ' s junior year, after taking the proper spring, one will soar through space with perfect ease, provided one has started from a firm foundation. Then, one will be ready to take the plunge into educating one- self for future work. The third, and most vital point, is rising from the depths of education to the brink of ones future work. Some poor swimmers will never reach the top of the water and will drown helplessly. Others will come to the surface and climb the ladder of success. Which kind of swimmer are you, juniors? Time has proved that you have taken the spring from a good foundation. You have soared through the air and taken the plunge without difficulty. Now, complete the job and rise from the depths to success.

Other classes had come to high school as bashful, unsophisticated sophomores, unac- quainted with upper-classmen and feeling lost. But not this progressive class 1 They immedi- ately made themselves at home, regarding the seniors and juniors, not as superiors, but as equals. The upper-classmen discovered that the sophomores were determined to go places, and this determination was certainly carried out. The sophomores enlarged the personnel of the school band, and the snappy exhibition of this organization was aided by the capable sophomore baton-twirlers. The vocal division of the school was made up of many members of the Sophomore Class. These progressive sophomores have made many valuable con- tributions to the football and basketball teams, as well as to the orchestra and dramatic pro- ductions. They faithfully attended social func- tions and the noonday activities. The class of 1943 has made a commendable showing not only in extra-curricular activities, but also in scholastic work. They also bulged the honor roll and augmented the Student Senate. Because of these facts, the up-and-coming sophomores should be very successful during the two years to come. The class has been a valuable asset to our Lebanon High School, and the members may well be proud of its achievements. The reputation this admirable class has established for itself should be indic- ative of the future success of the class of 1943. Keep up the good work. Sophs!

The seniors and juniors were as delighted as the sopho- mores at the beginning of the new term. No more half-day sessions to hinder the pupils and teachers, but a full-day ' s schedule to be enjoyed by all. The facilities offered by the school greatly exceeded those of the old high school building. As time wore on, ho ve er, the pupils de- sired to improve and add to the opportunities of the school. The Student Senate made many efforts to serve the school by putting on drives for various improvements. During the 1939- 1940 term, the Senate, with the cooperation of the students and faculty, bought mirrors and soap containers for all the lavatories. The class of 1939 gave the school the fine electric scoreboard, a useful device during the basketball season. In the beginning of the 1939-1940 term Lebanon High School organized a povver- se ' ing department for the girls who desired to pursue textile work in the future and employed Mrs. Darkes as instructor. Many forward steps were taken during the past three years to increase the recreational J iaii eepS p. ace opportunities tor Lebanon High students. In 1939 an archery club was formed, open to any students who desired to join. The gym was equipped with an amplifying system during the same year. This provided music for noon- day activities. Miss Leese and Mr. Spangler, the physical education instructors, introduced new and diverting forms of play. During the 1939- 1940 school year equipment for badminton, tennis, and shuffleboard was bought and in- stalled. Intramural sport groups were subse- quently organized. The following year bowl- ing and golf were included in the list of gym- nastic activities. The industrial department of the high school, under Mr. Harbold, supervisor, has been a great asset to our school. In this de- partment the boys who desire to learn auto- motive maintenance, die and tool-making, and drafting are given opportunity to do so. Improvements have been made in the boys ' shops during the past three years, and this department has been very beneficial to those enrolled in it. Lebanon High School may point to its achievements and its ability to keep pace with the present-day educational trends. 59 L iadi f- c oeni As we were groping for the road of life, We came upon a path which led away Into a distant land that lay beyond. It beckoned us and called us from our play. We followed, and at first it seemed quite hard; We wandered into growth or underbrush; We sometimes fell and stumbled over rocks; And ' tho we kept our pace, we did not rush. While on the way, we ofttimes came upon Some lovely thing of joy, of hope, or cheer That filled our hearts and minds with courage new And helped us put away all doubt and fear. ' Twas thus the class of ' 41 pushed far, Striving and struggling on to win; ah, yes. But some have touched the goal for which they strove, And some have even tasted of success. Since we have reached the end of that one path, There dawns for us a new, exciting day. And as we scan the countryside of life, We find new paths to lead us far away. 60 Lyur Arctiultied krouan the ( amera J C ue Standing: Sara Louise Hostetter.

In order to make our book more successful. we believed two heads were better than one, and consequently, the Lodestone of ' 41 has Co-Editors, instead of an Editor-in-Chief.

It is a democratic organization formed from the entire student body. The purposes of the organization are: to develop a sense of responsibility and self- government among the students of Lebanon Senior High School: to promote closer co- operation and better understanding between the faculty and students; to promote closer school and community relations; to promote inter-school relations; and to promote the best interests of Lebanon Senior High School. The President and First Vice-President are elected by the student body. All representa- tives are elected from every activity in the school and from every home room not other- wise represented. Class officers and Sopho- more Legion Honor Award Pupils automat- ically become members of the Senate. The Safety Patrol works in cooperation with the Senate. During the present year forty-five members comprised the Senate with forty-hve additional members from the student body. Committees include members from the school-at-large. They are as follows: athletic, correspondence, dance, finance, games, inter- school, library, lost and found, parliamentary, property, safety, service, school, and com- munity relations. A signal honor came to the group this vear in its being elected President of the Southern District of Schools in Pennsylvania in this activity. Annually a Senate Award of Merit is sponsored in the spring, at which time no less than three, nor more than c, seniors who have been outstanding citizens through- out their three years are thus honored. =) Senior d core utstctndina J lt f Standing: Pauline Ulrich.

THRILLING MYSTERY IS PRESENTED • The Cat and the Canary, a four-act melo- drama by John Willard, was presented by two superb casts composed of twenty mem- bers of the 1 94 1 Seniors to two highly-thrilled audiences who literally packed the Lebanon High School auditorium. The play was held on the evenings of November i6 and 17. Miss R. Eileen McConnell was the capable coach of this very successful production. Betty Rock and Lucile Reifsnyder with great talent portrayed Annabelle West, the heroine, an artist from Greenwich Village, who inherited a large estate from her grand- father, Cyrus Canby West. The hero of the play, Paul Jones, was acted by Norman Wal- ters and Robert Hornberger. Paul was a veter- inarian, who became a mechanic, becauss there were no more horses. He did not care whether he inherited the estate or not, his main interest being his secret love of Anna- belle. Roger Crosley, the thoughtful and able lawyer of the late Cyrus West, was enacted by Arthur Terr and William Dreher. Sidney Levitz and Charles McConnell played the part of Harry Blythe, a serious young man who wished for the love of Annabelle and — the disposal of his competitor, Charlie Wilder. Mammy Pleasant, the old trusted West Indian servant of Cyrus West, who cared for the Glencliff estate during its twenty years of vacancy, was ably enacted by Marjorie Frantz and Kay McDermott. The part of Susan Sills- by, a nervous and psychic woman of middle age, who always thought someone or some- thing was going to harm her, was interpreted by Virginia Hartman and Pauline Uhlrich. A mature woman, Cicely Young, who had an optimistic view of life and who wanted to be helpful, was performed by Polly Lou Penman and June Dengler. James Musheno and Ken- neth Mellinger took the part of Charlie Wild- er, a hot-headed young man, who finally (£ turned out to be the insane villain. John Lilly anil Fritz Boniherger played the role of the asylum keeper, and lames Wert and James Spcravv, the attending doctor during Anna- belle ' s tainting spells. The action in The Cat and the Canary took place at Cilenclill .Manor on the Hudson during a cold and stormy night in November. . 11 the living relatives of Cyrus Canby West had come to find out whether they had in- herited the rich man ' s estate, . mong the de- scendents was . nnabelle West, who became the heiress after the lawyer had read the will. Things started popping when Annabelle was proclaimed the sole beneficiary of the estate. First, the attendant of the insane asy- lum broke into the house in search of a man like a wild cat. This danger frightened everyone, especially the nervous Miss Susan Sillsby. Second, the lawyer, Mr. Crosley, mysteriously disappeared while trying to re- late the dangers in the house to . nnabelle. Later in the play, the monster, who really was Charlie Wilder, working in a plot with the asylum keeper to obtain the estate and the lost necklace willed to Annabelle, came through the panel in the wall to scare Anna- belle into hysterics. After this fearsome ex- perience, Mr. Crosley was found in a com- partment in the wall of Annabelle ' s bedroom — dead. Charlie Wilder and his companion were, after other thrilling and spine-chilling incidents, discovered to be Mr. Crosley s mur- derers, who had tried to petrify Annabelle. They were dragged, with the assistance of Harry Blythe, to the County Jail. Paul Jones, the boy with the very expressive leet, turned out to be Annabelle ' s loved one after she re- fused to marry Harry Blythe and Charlie Wilder. The curtain closed on . nnabelle ' s marriage to Paul. The mystery of Cilenclitl Manor would not have been so highly successful, had it not been for the Make-up Committee, who with pow- der and paint transformed into maturity high school boys and girls; the Stage Committee, who made the interior of Glencliff Manor very realistic; the Property Committee, who provided the tools which make a play life- like; the Light and Sound Committee, who made the eerie lighting etTects and weird, goosepimply sounds; and the Orchestra that steadied and soothed the nerves of the highly enthusiastic audience between the acts. The Make-up Committee deserves special mention because the seniors on it — Sarah Keller, chairman; Sarah Louise Light, Esther Eckert, Marian Funk, Jeanne Bentz, Harold Hersh, and Lester Benson — dealt with youth and old age at all school productions throughout the year when a change of physi- ognomy was needed. With each project they increased their knowledge and skill under the direction of Miss Bowman, adviser, and Miss Nichols, assistant. 67 toward (l- etter S neech , , . r GIRLS ' ORATORICAL CONTEST • The Eighteenth Annual Woman ' s Club Oratorical Contest was held Friday, February 28.

Smith, a member of the Board of School Directors. FRENCH CLUB • Many enjoyable periods were spent every two weeks, in an effort to acquaint the mem- bers of the club with the cultural and every- day usages of the French language. Early in the fall, officers were elected and committees appointed for the club. Meetings were conducted in the French language in two classes under the guidance of Miss Hoffman. Programs presented contained games, sto- ries, puzzles, and songs of France. The most enjoyable meeting was the Val- entine Party. After a very brief business ses- sion, valentines were distributed and games played. The climax came when a few gener- ous members treated the club to refreshments. The rest of the meeting was passed in con- tented silence while everyone indulged in his favorite pastime. Nous vivons manger! GERMAN CLUB • Although the club was organized rather late in the year, many informative and jolly meetings were held. Like its sister, the French Club, two classes were organized and sponsored by Miss Hoff- man. The meetings were held every second Fri- day. They were conducted just like any other school meeting except that German was used instead of English. The devotions, minutes, and announcements were given in German, much fun being derived from the translations. Each class elected presiding officers, and pro- gram committtees were appointed for every meeting. 68 GIRLS ' ORATORICAl CONTESTANTS Standing: Marilyn Bohr. Marjonc Ir.intz. Scaled: Joan Boger.

Miss R. Eileen McConnell, Miss Joan Nich- ols, Miss Alta Bortz, and Miss Isahelle Bough- ter, faculty sponsors of the club, directed such noteworthy social services as: a contribution of candles, needles, thread and soap to Fin- land; baskets of food at Christmas and Thanksgiving to the poor; and baby clothing to the ' isiting Nurse Association. A Bible Study Contest, consisting of seven lessons, was one of the most inspiring projects of the year. Certificates were awarded to those girls who satisfactorily completed the course. The officers of the club were: Jeanne Kreid- er. President; Polly Lou Penman, ' ice-Presi- dent; Johann Klick, Secretary; Doris CHier- holtzer. Treasurer; Kay McDermott, Chap- lain; and Arlene Lentz, Scribe. HI-Y • Under the capable leadership of Mr. E. J. Larson, Sponsor, and Frank Haak, President, the Hi-Y has successfully closed its first year of open membership. In addition to distributing baskets of food at Christmas to the needy, the club furnished ushers for school functions; passed out pro- grams at football games; operated the outdoor scoreboard; sponsored a spring dance; and held a skating party in conjunction with the Tri-Hi-Y. The club placed a highly successful bas- ketball team in the Y.M.C.A. Intermediate League. Aside from the regular league games, the Hi-Y played Hershey, Enola, Cornwall, Myerstown, and Jersey Shore. Instead of the yearly Bible Study Contest, the Hi-Y arranged a series of informal lec- tures, given by prominent men of Lebanon. SAFETY PATROL • Throughout the year 1940-1941, the Safety Patrol, under the direction of Mr. Newton Burgner, has efficiently carried out a program of developing a sense of safety-first in Leba- non High School. They regulated pedestrian and bicycle traffic near the school and kept order in the halls. By designating exits for the various classes and by enforcing the laws concerning them, they eliminated a great deal of confusion both before and after school. The Safety Patrol took over the concession stands at school dances, and thereby obtained funds to attend the National Convention held in Washington in the spring. GIRL GUARDS • Under the guidance of two capable and understanding sponsors. Miss Ruth Evans and Miss Helen Groh, the Girl Guards have made this year a prominent one in the history of the club. Starting in September, the girls be- gan a program of events which contributed to their physical, social, mental, and spiritual development. On numerous occasions they were called upon to usher, or to wait on tables. Though it was a new idea to be tried in the organization, the Bible Study Course held during the mid-winter interested the girls greatly. Climaxing many other tasks of service throughout the year, the girls continued their annual custom of presenting each teacher with a bouquet of violets on May Day. School I lau is L reat i ucceiA • The Adorable Spendthrift, a domestic comedy in three acts by Roy Briant, was quite the opposite of the thriUing comedy The Cat and the Canary. Miss R. Eileen McConnell, through her skill and experience, coached the two casts for the productions held on March 14 and 15. This refreshing play had as its main char- acters, the Mason family of Galesburg, Connecticut, whose newly-acquired wealth changed them over night from mediocre peo- ple to high society folks. Sari, a beautiful Belgian countess, was portrayed by Ruth Good and Betty Jane Rock. Their French accent aroused commendable comments as well as their ability to turn from spitfires to lovable natures, a characteristic needed to bring the Masons back to their original social position. Also playing opposite the leads on their respective nights were Paul Shay and Kenneth Mellinger, taking the part of Hardy Mason, who was the special reason for the Countess Sari ' s coming such a distance and who seemed to take more interest in business than in love. The comedy was increased whfn the Masons became engulfed in financial trou- bles, aggravated by Sari to win Hardy ' s love. The Napoleon of this play, J. C. Mason, who thought he was to be the next Mayor of Galesburg, and who finally brought Hardy to his senses concerning his fiancee, was bril- liantly enacted by William Dreher and Fritz Bomberger. Of course, this play would have been too peaceful and quiet without Betty Gingrich and Virginia Hartman in the role of Mrs. Mason, the domineering wife of J. C. Mason. Irene Mason, the victim of having to de- cide upon marrying a polished Bostonian or a sincere, but rough-cut inventor, was capably played by Jean Kleinfelter and Lorna Spang- ler. The Bostonian impostor was represented by Hartz Bomberger and Donald Weiman, and the inventors were Jack Stein and Rollin Yorty. The other supporting parts were taken by Ray Hawkins and Richard Rohland as Mac Watters; Natalie Culhane and Martha Reilly as Mrs. Reeves-Alton; Betty Weaver and Kitty Lou White as Eflie; Patricia Culhane and Ruthanna Deiter as Helen Reeves-Alton; Marlin Hauer and John Shott as Senator Dan Pollard; Richard Heilman and Russell Aurentz as Mr. Stoneham; Helen Hoch and Rose Sickerman as Mill Keyes; Richard Ebright and Thomas Donnachie as Perkins; and Miriam Etter and Arlene Lentz as Ellen.

Warfel • The Lebanon High School Newsette, su- pervised by Mr. Gilliland and Mr. Warfel, continued to turn out the best school news- paper in Eastern Pennsylvania — in the opin- ion of its enthusiastic stafi and the delighted student body. Bi-weekly the Newsette was distributed in the home rooms on Friday immediately after dismissal, there being fifteen issues during the school term. The news stories and features were con- tributed by the faculty, students, staff, and occasional interested outsiders. The Co-Editors were two seniors, Ammon Belleman and Joan Boger, and the Managing Editor was Ken- neth Keiter, a junior. Athletic spirit and sportsmanship were stressed by the Sports Edi- tors — Sara Hostetter and Frank Haak; Fea- tures were handled by the poetic senior — Mar- jorie Frantz; and the ' hardships of the Exchange Editor were borne with equanimity by Alfred Howard. Copy for print was typed by four seniors — ■ Mildred Bachman, Virginia Hartman, Anne Shultz, and Pauline Ulrich. The entire stafT, culled from all the classes in L. H.S., contributed their help so willingly that Mr. Warfel himself was heard to remark that the Newsette Staff of 1 940-1 941 was the most efficient with which he had ever worked. 73 ORCHESTRA AND L. H. S. BAND ORCHESTRA • The orchestra, under the excellent super- vision of Mr. R. Leslie Saunders, has proved to us that not all good musicians are old and gray-haired. This combination of young tal- ent has shown its ability to play difficult pieces with adept precision and complete harmony. Many of us have heard the orchestra at the productions, The Cat and the Canary and The Adorable Spendthrift, and during as- sembly programs. After witnessing any of its performances, we can feel proud that Leb- anon High School has a really gifted group. Not only does the orchestra provide a source of enjoyment, but it also is an edu- cational medium for those participating and those listening. Each participant increases his skill and becomes a better musician, having the experience of playing with others and learning many new and difficult selections. 74 H ' liiSical L roiiiJJ J ave (I5ta Uji ecu Some of the benefits derived through such organizations arc manifold. The nucleus tor future musicians is often formed; the listen- ing audience is acquainted with the finer type of music; and it inevitably develops a musical appreciation among students as well as the general public. One of the members of the orchestra, Rus- sell Brandt, was honored by being in the All- State Orchestra. Following is a list of the members: Violins — Russell Brandt, Marijane Gates.

Under maestro R. Les- lie Saunders; his assistant, Walter Whybrew; and student conductor, Edward Ciranger; the band concludes another memorable year. Featuring Guiseppe Creatore as guest con- ductor the annual concert, given on December II, was well supported and attended. The Band sponsored a public card party and alumni dance in the gymnasium and several cake sales in the local markets, the proceeds of which were added to the fund being raised to defray the expenses of the Band to Newcastle, where it entered the State Band Contest on April i8 and 19. Fourteen talented musicians from the or- ganization participated in the Annual South- ern District Band Festival, held March 6, 7, and 8, in Waynesboro. The personnel is as follows: Paul Albright.

One large chorus was organized from Chorus I, Chorus II, and the Girls Chorus. The final ensemble consisted of three hundred and twenty-five voices. The first appearance of the organization was the Gaul Dedication Concert on Novem- ber 22.. This was advertised as a return en- gagement of Dr. Gaul, but because of illness, he was unable to be present. Both the chorus and the public were greatly disappointed, for Dr. Gaul had planned to conduct his own compositions, two of which he had dedicated to Miss Kleinfelter and the Lebanon High Chorus. Since Dr. Gaul could not conduct, Miss Kleinfelter took his place. A high spot in the program was Adele Fehr Kadel, pianist. Previous to the Gaul Concert, the Chorus appeared in three broadcasts, sponsored by the United Welfare Drive. Among the num- bers used were selections from Gounod ' s Gallia, I Hear America Singing by Gaul, and a choral-piano arrangement of Sibelius ' Finlandia, for which Thomas Shaak played the piano solo. The radio broadcast originated in the Lebanon High School auditorium and was transmitted by WEEU Reading. The next big event was a Christmas con- cert that was given with the cooperation of the English Department. A continuous pro- gram of song and melody was presented; while on the stage living pictures of world- famous paintings of Madonnas were shown. The final formal appearance of the large chorus was made on April 23 at the Spring Concert. Goring Thomas ' Sun Worshippers was presented with Pauline Kunst Helms, soprano, and Howard Phillippy, tenor, as soloists. The Sun Worshippers was pre- sented in a serious mood, while the Gilbert and Sullivan dream operetta, All at Sea, was in a lighter one. All the roles in the latter were sung by chorus members. The Chorus gave a dance on March 7. About 325 members and guests attended the gala affair despite the snowy weather. Hook- er Smith and his orchestra played from eight ' to eleven o ' clock. The dance floor was occu- pied all the time, but for the non-dancers games were provided. During intermission the awards for highest ticket sales to the Harvey Gaul Concert were made. This party was so successful that another will be held next year, if the choral work merits one. Another choral group that had a successful season was the A Cappella Choir. The mem- bers of this organization were selected by competition from the other choral groups. The A Cappella group consisted of eighty- three voices and was the only ensemble to appear in gowns. The first appearance made by the A Cap- pella Choir was in the rendition of The Bul- garian Straw Carol by Gaul at the Dedica- tion Concert on November 22. This number and On the Ragin Canawl were the con- ductor ' s specially dedicated numbers. On the Saturday preceding Christmas the A Cappella Choir sang carols at the First National Bank. They presented a program of song at one of the Harding Junior High School assemblies and at the first joint meet- ing of the County Youth Democracy Society on February 27 at the Harding Junior High School. The A Cappella group journeyed to Atlan- tic City on May 3 and 4 to participate in the Region 4 Competitive Festival held in con- nection with the Eastern District of Music Educators ' Convention. The Choir left Leba- non on Saturday, May 3. After they had been rated, they took part in a combined concert. At the event were the best orchestras, bands, and choruses from the whole Eastern Music District of the United States. After the dele- gates ' concert in the Municipal Auditorium, the choir returned to their hotel and had all of Sunday free. There is no doubt that this jaunt for business and pleasure was the high spot of the musical year. 78 Vyur ililetlcS lirouan the i atnerct J C i r Elliott Fields Lloyd Lilly Stephen Karapcik Thomas Shuey Robert Hess Top Row: George Emrich, Paul Bordelmay- Mr. Giles.

Iic oLebcinon Off euen • The 1940 season for the Cedars of Leba- non was not uniformly bright, for the team showed rather poorly in spots, although sev- eral times it flashed real football. So, although the 1940 season will not go down in Cedar history as one of the best, it is not the worst. After the 1939 season ended. Coach Thrush held a football class the second period in the morning for the remainder of the school year, where the boys who hoped to make the 1940 football team were drilled in fundamentals and new plays. When Coach Thrush issued a call for can- didates for the 1940 football team during the week of August 25, a more or less trained group of boys responded. The boys reported to the high school for physical examination. On the payment of five dollars, the boys were given the right to go to camp, an altogether new experience for a Cedar football squad. The team embarked for Camp Greble on Sunday evening, August 26. Everyone had enthusiasm for the camp, because it was thought the boys would learn much about 82 Jlic cJLcbanon C-ie even football and come back in tip-top shape. How- ever, when the team reached camp, it started to rain; and rained every day the team was in camp. The end came on Saturday, when the Swatara Creek rose to the floors of the cabins and the team was swamped! . fter rolling in the mud at camp for a whole week, to set foot on the firm turf of the new stadium made the team feel a good hit better, and the boys settled dow n to prac- tice in earnest. The Cedars opened the season on Septem- ber 14 with Thomas Patton Trade, a rather weak team; and the Thrushmen ran through them almost at will and finally beat them 31 to 7. Came September 21, the Cedars took on Dunmore, powerful team from the coal re- gions. This game was hard fought and a thriller all the way, with the Red and Blue taking their heavier opponents into camp 19 to 7. The Thrushmen then traveled to Harris- burg to take on a highly favored John Harris crew. John Harris had a good many letter- men back, and a big, heavy team as a whole. With their eyes on a Big Fifteen Cham- pionship, they took on Lebanon as the first stepping stone. However, the gallant Cedars almost proved themselves a stumbling block and were subdued only after a real battle and a moral victory. But as a matter of record, the Cedars were defeated 6 to o. The following Saturday the Lancaster Red Roses came to town. Lancaster did not have a widely heralded team; but it was a good one, nevertheless. The Cedars suffered a let- down and were conquered 20 to 6. York Catholic High came to Lebanon on the next Saturday. This team proved to be a breather for the Cedars. Football was a new- sport for the York Parochials, this being their first year at the game. The Thrushmen ran over them, under them, and through them; and even when the scrubs were in action, they could not be stoppctl. When the dust cleared, the Red and Blue had a 45 to o victory. The following Saturday, the luggernaut, that was the Williamsport Millionaires, came to town. These having been undefeated came to Lebanon with a chip on their shoul- ders and came near having it knocked off. The Cedars put up a gallant fight against supermen which was featured by some spec- tacular goal-line stands by the Red and Blue; but the overwhelming manpower finally won out by the close score of 14 to 7. Harrisburg Catholic High saluted Lebanon with a better than average team and an un- usually heavy line, featuring some virtual giants, hardly any men being less than six feet tall or scaling less than two hundred pounds. These monsters blasted their way to a 6 to o victory against a fighting team of Cedars. For the next game, the Thrushmen jour- neyed to Reading on a cool, clear Saturday in early November. The Cedars started out like the fighters they were and held a good Red Knight team to a lone touchdown in each of the first two periods; but they seemed to go to pieces in the last half and were given a 34 to o beating. York ' s White Roses next presented them- selves to do battle with the Cedars. York, having had a good team, thought they would take the Cedars in stride. But the Thrushmen put up a good fight, which at times carried them to the very heights; and York was rather lucky to eke out a 14 to 7 win. The next Saturday the Cedars journeved to Steelton to take on the powerful Steam Rollers. The boys seemed to try hard, but to no avail. When the last whistle blew to end the game, the Steam Rollers ' had flattened the Cedars 50 to o. On Thanksgiving day the Cedars rang down the curtain when they stepped up to Pottsville to play against the miners, who 83 proved a bit too much for the Cedars and starred 30 to 7. Some boys who really played superior foot- ball for Lebanon in the past season may be summed up as follows: Tom Shuey could al- ways be counted on at his favorite end posi- tion, cutting down plays before they had a chance to get started. He was given honorable mention on the All-Conference Team of the Big Fifteen. Buck Fields and Lloyd Wood played some of the best football that the Leba- non fans have seen any Red and Blue tackles play. In the backfield were Bob Hess, a watch- charm halfback who often made the opposi- tion look a bit foolish; Weik and Becker, who displayed some fine blocking; and, last but not the least, big Lloyd Lilly and Paul Bordle- may, who could usually be counted on lor that extra yard.

U ursitij (I5ashetbatt f • The Cedars had a great deal to overcome in Varsity basketball during the 1940-1941 season, for not only the student body, but the public in general, seemed to be reminded of last year ' s Champs whenever something spectacular or something hard to take oc- curred. In the opening game of the season, played with Harrisburg Catholic, the team looked great considering the fact that many substi- tutions were made throughout the contest. When the final whistle blew, the Cedars were ahead by the score of 31-25. Bethlehem High — the ne.xt opponent — was tougher. The Cedars rallied in the last quar- ter so that they ended within four points of the victors 30-26. After this defeat, Lebanon staged a come- back on the local court by swamping Her- shey 45-27. In this game Tom Shuey was shifted from his regular center post to that of guard. Closing the 1940 basketball books with a bang, the Cedar dribblers traveled to Har- risburg Catholic, where they scored a second win over the Parochials 39-26. Although trail- ing their opponents in the first quarter, the Cedars outclassed the Crusaders completely in the remainder of the game. During the Christmas vacation, L. H. S. played host to last year ' s team. At the end of the first half, the Thrushmen were being close- ly followed by the former Champs, but in the last quarter the Red and Blue shone. The final score was 30-32. A record crowd at the opening League game saw the Cedars defeat John Harris 27- 18. The second half, the Red and Blue really put on pressure and could not be stopped. Lancaster High was the next to fall under the spell of the now fast-traveling Cedars. The courtsters racked up their fifth straight ictorv hv the large margin of 4S-2t - Hess and Hicks battled lor the high scoring honors of the evening with 17 and 12 points respec- tively. Tom Shuey, as member of last year ' s team, at this time was chosen pilot of the 1940-19.1 1 season. .■ highlv-rated Reading team handed the Cedars their first League setback on the local court. The visitors played brilliantly, the Red and Blue fading as the game proceeded. The game ended 23-19 in favor of Reading. The Cedars eked out a win over the York White Roses by a colorful second-half rally that clinched the game 26-21. A third-period comeback in the contest with William Pcnn did not mean much for the Thrushmen; the pace-setting Tigers put on a scoring splurge in the final chapter to decide the issue 40-25. Playing at a torrid pace, the Red and Blue dribblers dropped their second straight League game to the Steamrollers of Steelton High 45-41. Since the Steeltonians were more fortunate than the Lebanonians in their field goals, the edge of victory was four points. In a non-league encounter, the Thrushmen defeated a scrappy Hershey Industrial School five 38-25. The Cedars outscored the Spartans in every stage of the game, Captain Tom Shuey setting the pace. Running wild to chalk up a 64-36 win, the Cedars of Lebanon literally swamped the Her- shey Trojans on the Community court. Every member of the squad saw action and figured in the heavy scoring. The Cedar cagemen traveled to John Har- ris and captured their fourth League victory by beating the Pioneers 45-41. During this game Coach Thrush revamped his squad, Kal- bach and Brensinger of the scrubs replacing Sando, Heverling, and Peifler. In a return game, the Cedars started a whirlwind spurt in the second half, and de- spite a valiant attempted rally, Lancaster was left on the short end of a 37-14 victory — the fifth League win for Lebanon. Again a small matter of four points, scored in a few minutes left to play, spelled defeat for Lebanon ' s gallant Cedars at Reading. The latter managed to pull ahead of Reading once or twice and played a hectic game through- out the last half. The Red Knights, however, forged ahead and captured two leads that spelled victory. Five sturdy Cedars withstood thirty-two minutes of gruelling play with the York High Snappers to account for L. H. S. ' s sixth Cen- tral Pennsy League victory 41-38. The Cedars began to freeze the ball, but Belleman saw Emerich was wide-open. The ball was rifled to the latter; and as the final gun barked, the ball dropped through the hoop, sealing an- other victory. Incidentally, Emerich was the sparkplug, scoring a total of 19 points dur- ing the fracas. The Cedar Quintet avenged an earlier set- back when they easily defeated the William Penn Tigers, who put on a desperate attack in the last quarter in an attempt to overcome the Lebanon lead, but fell short ten points — 40-30. A flashy Hershey Industrial five gave the Cedars a real scare when they held them to a 35-32 score. The foul-shooting average for the evening was very low, with only three out of twenty-five tries made. Faint hopes of representing the League in the play-offs vanished entirely, as Lebanon fell before the Steelton Steamrollers. Students and townspeople crowded the gymnasium to see the bleachers fold up on a fairly successful season. Captain Tom Shuey was chosen guard on the coaches ' All-Star Team. Emerich led the scoring with 173 points. Hess and Piarote were constant scorers, while Belleman played a steady game at guard. Light, Speraw, and Frey were capable substitutes whenever they were called upon to relieve one of their fel- low players. The season ended with Lebanon in a tie for third place with seven wins and five losses in League play. The Red and Blue won six- teen games in all and lost six in the basketball season of 1 940-1 941. 1941 VARSITY SUMMARY Lebanon Dec. 13 Harrisburg Catholic 31 Dec. 17 Belhlehem 26 Dec. 20 Hershey Industrial 45 Dec. 26 Harrisburg Catholic 39 Jan. 3 1940 Champs 30 Jan. 10 John Harris 27 Jan. 14 Lancaster 45 Jan. 17 Reading 19 Jan. 21 York 26 Jan. 25 William Pcnn 40 Jan. 28 Steelton 45 Jan, 31 Hershey Industrial 38 Feb. 5 Hershey High 64 Feb. 8 John Harris 45 Feb. 11 Lancaster 37 Feb. 14 Reading 30 Feb. 18 York 41 Feb. 21 William Pcnn 40 Feb. 25 Hershey Industrial 35 Feb. 28 Steelton 28 Opp. 25 Home 30 Away 27 Home 26 Away 22 Home 18 Home 28 Away 23 Home 21 Home 25 Away 41 Away 25 Home 36 Away 41 Away 14 Home 34 Away 38 Away 30 Home 32 Away 35 Horn ! 87 A. v. d aiketball cj uad Top Row: Charles Beamesdcrfer.

The strength of the team was probably due to its expert play- ers; such as Sicgel, Klcinfelter, Brensinger, and Kalbach. In the Central Pennsylvania League games the Jay-N ' ees tied William Penn in the posi- tion of third place with a percentage of .500, while Reading came first in standing with a percentage of .917, and ' ork second with a percentage of .750. Lebanon tried to average last year ' s only loss to Reading, but did not succeed, although the pivoteers played hard. Credit must be given to the 1941 Jay-Vees because it is be- lieved another great L. H. S. Varsity team will emerge from them. On the squad were a number of high- scoring individuals who in the future will make great Varsity stuf?. Herman Siegel led all by attaining 155 scoring points — 59 field goals and 37 foul goals. Second on the list was Wally Kleinfelter, who had 123 scoring points — 55 field goals and 13 foul goals. Other boys who held high scores for the year were Brensinger, scoring 104 points; Kalbach, 90; and Becker, 39. Bowman, Gates, Kurtz, and Foltz also worked hard and played magnificently. One must not forget the very important cog in the wheel of the sport, the coach. All the players will long remember Coach Sammy Angle. A fairly successful season of basketeering ended by L. H. S. nearly swamping Steelton with a score of 46 to 22. • Although sophomore basketball has been a comparatively new sport in Lebanon High School, it has been received with decided enthusiasm by all who attended the games. Many of the sophomore lads who went out for this sport were mere novices with a keen desire to learn. Entrusted to the capable hands of Coaches Feeser and Giles, the newly-chosen courtsters began to grow in experience and capability. The coaches, who have had sev- eral years ' experience as players and instruc- tors, were able to impart invaluable knowl- edge to the young hopefuls. Their accurate response to instructions and their ability to learn quickly were two main factors that brought about several victories. Many of us became familiar with these plucky newcomers when they played in our gym before the Varsity and Junior Varsity games began. These sophomore games made the spectators sit up and take notice, placing them in a more receptive mood for the two remaining games. Although some defeats came to this team, as with most teams, their heads remained high and that try, try, again spirit still remained. We need fighting spirit like this in our teams to succeed, and the sophomore team has shown that it has what it takes to reach the top. Their participation in these games prepares them for future posi- tions on varsity teams; so we salute their unstinting eflorts and look forward to a high- ly successful season in the future. 89 TENNIS • The approach of spring brought not only Schedule the robins and crocuses, but also the annual April call from Mr. Kimmel for a good supply of May ' ' ' ' racquet-wielders.

Veterans as well as green-horns assembled and displayed the spirit of true athletes. An- swering the first call were Ed Neal, already a name in Lebanon High Track history, Bill Viall, Hunse Wagner, Bob Piarote, Ber- nard Neely, Frank Haak, Gordon Lewis, Russ Brandt, Earl Youtz, and Ed Stew- art. Coach Thrush ' s track weakness lay chiefly in the field and weight events; provided tal- ent could be developed there, Lebanon ex- pected to have a banner year in Track. Coach Feeser and Coach Giles divided these events between them, the former taking high jumps, broad jumps, and pole vaulting, and the latter the weight events — shot put, discus, and jave- lin. Coach Thrush took over the running events. The Cedar cinder path boys hit their stride in their opening meet with William Penn on the local field. Showing skill were Bob Piarote, who took first place in the century and 220 and who ran on the winning mile- relay team; Ed Neal, another veteran, who turned in a first place in the mile and an- chored the mile-relay team; Bernard Neely, who was second in high jumps; Gordon Lew- is, who won in the low hurdles; Hunse Wagner, who ran the third leg of the mile- relay; and Bill Viall, who ran a close third in the 100. The trackmen were leading the Penn speedsters until the results of the weight and field events came in. Unfortunately for the runners, the weight men lost twenty points out of twenty-four. This gave William Penn a hard-earned victory over the Cedars by the score of 59-69. The mile-relay team ventured to Philadel- phia where they competed in the Penn Relays. L. H. S. finished fourth, the same as last year, in competition with the Big Fifteen schools. The team met a setback when their anchor man, Ed Neal, dislocated his knee. Other members of the team who carried L. H. S. forward through a prosperous series of event- ful meets were Haak, Wagner, Piarote, Bow- man, and Stewart. 92 Top Row: Samuel Angle.

To start things ofT with a bang on Friday afternoon, March 7, it began to snow and continued to snow till the country was blan- keted in eleven inches of snow. This, how- ever, did not dampen the spirit of the boys who held the first few weeks of practice in the L. H. S. gym. Here the battery mates threw the balls back and forth, the infield sharpened their eyes on rollers, and the out- fielders even had batting practice. This was not very efficient, however; but finally Old Man Weather gave the boys a break, and they went to work on the new Stadium field. This year the team again participated in the Central Pennsy Baseball League. The team planned to play a twenty-game schedule, twelve of which were league games. Coach Angle expressed high hopes for a banner season if he could find some good pitchers. He had a veteran returning for near- ly every position except the mound. Some of the boys who showed their value last year at one position or another as regulars or reservists are: Bob Hess, Tom Shuey, Sterl Peiffer, Ken Heberling, Pip Sper- aw, Bob Sando, Buck Fields, and Shor ty Fields. There were some promising soph omores. We are hoping that this combination will carry the colors of Lebanon High to great heights in league play. 93 Top Row: Frances McDonald. Student Manager.

Al- though the Cedarettes were not undefeated, their organized playing helped them end the current season with ten victories and only two losses. The first victory was recorded against an inexperienced Alumnae team 22-18. The next to fall a victim to Coach Leese ' s lassies was the strong Annville sextette. This 27-26 setback was the first loss in twenty-five starts for the Annvillites. In a return game the score was reversed, as the Cedarettes went down in defeat in a nip and tuck game 22-18. The Cedarettes again broke into the win column when they swamped the Bell Tele- phone Girls 39-15. This was the first game in which all members of the squad played. A hard-fighting Hummelstown six was subdued in a final-quarter-spree that spelled victory for the Cedarettes by the score of 32-30- The Red and Blue girls gained another vic- tory at the expense of the Lebanon Business College 30-24 on the local court. In a pre- liminary game, the Jay-Vees eked out a win over Henry Houck 7-6. To continue with their schedule, the Cedar- ettes next conquered Schaefferstown 46-39. This winning streak was halted momen- tarily when Lebanon ran up against a de- termined Hummelstown sextette, the final score being 28-42 in favor of Hummelstown. In the first encounter with the girls of Lititz High, the Lebanon team proved supe- rior, for they easily overcame the difficulties of a small gym, and won 36-17. Schaefferstown again fell prey to the Cedar- ettes on the local court, losing 36-17. In a return game with Lititz, the Red and Blue again scored a one-sided victory by trouncing them to the tune of 53-19. In the final encounter of the season, the Cedarettes swamped the Lebanon Valley Sex- tette by the score of 56-24. As an added attraction the Cedarettes spon- sored a Play Day to which all the girls, who were members of the basketball teams of the high schools represented, were invited. The teams present were Annville, Schaefiferstown, Lititz, and Hummelstown. Throughout the year the team was cap- tained by Mary Aurentz, and the student manager was Frances McDonald. 94 Betty Weaver, Sara Louise Hostetter. George Huff.

CHEER SQUAD • Headed by Fritz Bomberger, captain, the cheerleaders faithfully accompanied the band to all interscholastic games. They lifted the players ' spirits high and pumped pep into the stands. Their awarded letters they can deservingly display with well-earned pride for completing a job splendidly done. Next year the school will be minus four cheerleaders, who are in the graduating class: Sara Louise Hostetter, Sara Light, George HufT, and Fritz Bomberger. The Juniors who will continue to wear the service badge are Claire Miller and Betty Weaver. To these leaders who gave and gave, the class of 41 expresses its hand in hand ap- preciation. ARCHERY CLUB • The Archery Club was an extra-curricular activity in Lebanon High School for several years under the supervision of Mr. L C. White. This year it was taken over as an in- tramural sport by the Physical Education De- partment. The club members meet Monday and Wednesday afternoons at four o ' clock for target-practice. During the fall and winter the Robin Hoods assembled in the second floor corridor outside the shops; and in the spring, back of the bleachers facing the baseball dia- mond. The boys and girls made enough bows and arrows in the woodshop to provide equipment for any prospective members who might be unable to make their own. The sport is be- coming more and more popular for both boys and girls, and plans are being made for meets next year.

C; and the boys , by the Boys Intra- mural Club. Miss Leese has given to her girls this year two new sports, in addition to the various old ones, archery and tennis. The old and more familiar sports were ping pong, badmin- ton, basketball, and volley ball. On Award Day in Assembly winners received medals. In basketball Sara Hostetter ' s team came out on top, which it really deserved, having had some tough teams to play against. The volley ball honors were taken by Grace Hock- ley ' s team. Through the year mat work, rings, horse, parallel bars, tap and square dancing, and golf were among the pastimes of the girls. Miss Leese intends sponsoring an archery tournament to determine the Robin Hood of L. H. S. All in all, the girls ' extensive sports pro- ijorts for y ll at oL. J . . gram held many hours of work and fun which will not be soon forgotten. Mr. Spangler has again completed another year of intramural sports, making the third successful one. This year the sports were as follows: basketball, volley ball, badminton, and ping pong. As usual, the top sport of the year was basketball. Each home room had its respec- tive players. The winner this year was Room 215; the players were: Arnold Spesak, Ray- mond Smith, George Strickler, Edward Strickler, Harold Speck, and Stanley Speraw. The old stand-by sports — ping pong and badminton — were also indulged in this year. Because of so inany other activities no tourna- ment for volley ball was held, but this sport was enjoyed in the gym classes. Added to the calendar of events was tennis, always a popu- lar lead. Credit must be given to Mr. Spangler for promoting and to the Boys Intramural Club for undertaking such a worthy e.xtracurricu- lar project that has undeniably served as a means of strengthening and developing the bodies and minds of the bovs in L. H. S. 97 ASSEMBLIES • This year ' s assembly programs were of unusual diversity. They may, however, be grouped into three types — recreational, edu- cational, and entertaining. Numerous student features were listed. These included pep-meetings, award days, the Christmas program, the Girls ' and the Boys ' Oratorical Contests, skits from the school plays, and an all-student talent assembly. The Ford Motor Company showed movies of the New York Worlds Fair and the Ford Plant at Detroit. Throughout the year many interesting speakers appeared before the students. Al- bright College sent Mr. Brinninger as a rep- resentative, and other prominent persons spoke to the student body during the year, among whom was Dr. Judd, a former medical missionary to China. Several unique programs were presented by well-known personages. Mr. D. K. Ernst, a hypnotist, thrilled the student body by his startling performances in the field of hypnosis. Mr. C. E. Jones entertained the students with his electrical apparatus, and Mrs. Jones amused and inspired the audience by her abilities as an elocutionist. Edwin Rowlands, famed autograph collec- tor, gave an original lecture about his col- lection of autographs of famous people.

With eight bands competing, the local musicians took second place. Both the band and the A Cappella Choir tried for national honors in Atlantic City on May 3. TEENIE • This vear there was an added attraction at the football scrimmages. Teenie, the teams masc ot, came to all the games in her red and blue attire to inspire the players. After the football season was over, the janitors decided Teenie would make a better mutton roast than a mascot, so they had a banquet at which she was the guest of honor.
