Ryan orates: I Do, Do You? l GERMANY THE LINDEN TREE GERMAN music and poetry are rather on the sentimental side. They usually sing of the home. Their songs tell of their love of home life and of peaceful living. They sigh for the past, and they live in a World of memories. Their songs may have an undercurrent of sadness but in the main extol the happy life of simple people. ZS ' f' !

With the new annex, students have had the opportunity to pursue the line of Work they are interested in, or to find out what line of work they are interested in. Members of the Board met and reorganized on December 2, 1940. At the meeting Dr. E. Harry McCue, prominent dentist of town, was re- elected President of the Board. In addition to the re-election of Dr. McCue as President, the Board elected Dr. David A. Holland as Vice-President, succeeding Michael Kurdinskyg Attorney Frank Gal- lagher, as Solicitor. Other members of the Board are: Charles Lieber- man, Secretary, Thomas Monaghan, Treasurerg Charles Wittnuer, Arthur Jenkins, and Michael Kurdinsky. DR. E. HARRY MCCUE The East End Park as a high school recre- ational center, has progressed rapidly. The installment of an ice-machine by the teach- ers of the old Junior High School has added to the coming enjoyment everyone will get out of the Park. MAHANOY CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION 31 MR. JOSEPH E. BOYLE, M. A. Principal W'Hl.1'ii1.R it's an excuse to be signed, solid geom- etry to be dropped, or permission to be granted for a dance in the gym, our most familiar M. C. H. S. phrase is suitable, See Mr. Boylenl For the three years that Mr. Boyle has been Principal of our High School he has always been ready and willing to help us with our manifold activities. He has proved himself our friend and has well earned the deep gratitude of the Class of 1941. We thank you, Mr. Boyle, for the valuable aid you have given us. We have learned to appreciate your spirit of cooperation and fair play, we have learned to respect your code of service to our school. MR. HARVEY S. BOLAN, M. E. Sujlerilzfelzclelzzf Coon MORNING, do you Want to speak to me? asks Mr. Bulan, smilingly, as he greets the students who venture into the busy office of the Superintendent of Schools. His smile and his unfailing good nature make him a pleasant person to meet as a Senior's day bc- gins. In the few years that he has been with us, Mr. Bolan has won for himself the high es- teem of every member of the Class of 1941. He has endeavored to help all students to get the most out of school life and to equip them with that academic or vocational training which will best Ht them to face conditions in the world today. The Class of 1941 salutes you, Mr. Bolan, and wishes you greater success in the years to come. Q9 vii 0 MR. HOWARD AMOUR Geometry, General Science B. S.-Penn State Mlss ALVERNA H.

E181 WEARERS OF THE M IN VICTORY OR DEFEAT, M. C. H. S. FOREVER! THIS motto has long been our guiding star in the dark mists of defeat and the golden rays of victory. We honor the wearers of the M, because to us an M symbolizes more than physical powers. It signifies service to the schoolg the ability to play hard but fairg the acceptance of defeat without rancor or enmityg the acknowledgment of victory with due modesty and restraint. Our tradition of good sportsmanship in defeat and modesty in vic- tory has been nurtured and cherished by our Coaches. The wearers of the M have come under the potent influence of men who have endeavored to show them how to play well and bravely in the larger game of life. We are indeed fortunate that our Coaches have taken such a whole- hearted interest in the present and future welfare of our boys. In these times of unrest we must hold fast to the simple homely virtues of courage, good sportsmanship, honor and loyalty. We feel that our wearers of the M, under the tutelage of our Coaches, have learned and are learning these precepts which will enable them to become intelli- gent, trustworthy, loyal citizens. Wearers of the M, we salute you! T191 Tn memoriam IVIFQ- DAVID VVILLIAINAS DAVID WILLIAMS, a familiar figure in the halls of Mahanoy City High School, died June 4, 1940. In March, 1926, he began his duties of Building Super- visor of our High School. A man of exemplary character, he fulfilled his duties in a quiet, unobtrusive manner. Although his devotion to the school did not permit him to absent himself from his post while he was able to carry on, he was forced to leave January 18, 1940, because of illness. We regret the loss of an able Supervisor, but feel that his qualities of service and loyalty should prove an inspira- tion to the Class of 1941. Iwi Tn memoriam NAR. HARRY A. ODAY GENIAL, well liked by the students of M. C. H. S., a prominent figure in educational circles, Mr. Oday was Superintendent of the Mahanoy City School District for a period of nineteen years. A graduate of Syracuse University, he had varied and wide experience in the teaching field. Beginning his career as a teacher in a country school, he became Principal of the High School of Athens, Pa., Supervising Prin- cipal of the Honesdale schools, Principal of the Mahanoy City High School, and finally Superintendent of the Mahanoy City School District. With the exception of a short period in France, doing educational work during the year 1919, he devoted his talents to the betterment of the Mahanoy City schools. After his retirement, July 1, 1935, he spent most of his time traveling about the United States. He died in Asbury Park, N. J., September 9, 1940. The many deeds of kindness and thoughtfulness which were his de- light to do, will keep his memory green and his name remembered in the annals of M. C. H. S. , 1211 LITHUANIA SEJAU RUTA SEJUA META THE living monument of the culture of the ancient Lith- uanians is to be found in their folksongs, legends and fables. In earlier days the Lithuanians participated in the drama, but with oncoming years they have followed mu- sical trends. In many of the Lithuanian compositions are found signs of the ancient Lithuanian religion and cus- toms. In all, there are more than a hundred Lithuanian folksongs, many of which have become lost with disuse through the years. ,--+1.25 A F nf' E ,V 4 K SQ- - 'A .af ' -K' A, f 'J ,E i y EU 3' ' N w , - R 1 ' ' Z - ,,., , SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President .

The class started out with a cast of two hundred and sixty-nine mem- bers. Two of the outstanding performances in the first act were ably interpreted by Stanley Kilkuskie, King Basketball, as a Freshman, and Jack Goepfert, a letterman, as a Freshman. We participated in many of the other main features such as the Band, Orchestra, Sports and Clubs. The curtain falls on the first act. In the second act the number of partici- pants increased, The cast again took part in the numerous opportunities for partici- pation in school activities which were pre- sented to them. The call for Forensic League contestants was answered by them. Also the call sent out by the Band, Orches- tra, Drum and Bugle Corps, Opera, Sports and Clubs. The third act of The Class of 1941 shows the cast still going strong. We were well represented in the numerous sports of the school. In this act two of the cast were on the team of the Black Diamond Cham- pions and five others acted as capable re- serves. Again we were represented in the many extra-curricular activities. On De- cember 1 the class officers were elected as follows: I 86 President . . . . .BERNARD CASSERLY Vice-President . .MART HANRAHAN Secretary . . . .... .JEAN WENTZ Treasurer . . . . .DOROTHY MILLER The fourth and final act of our musical comedy shows the almost completed, and the completed work of the class now stately distinguished Seniors. We see here the Bas- ketball team, which went full speed ahead almost to a state championship. We con- ducted monthly Dances, a mid-year Prom, showed our talent in Gym Exhibitions, Band, Orchestra, Sports, Clubs, Choruses and other activities. On September 12, 1941, we elected our officers thus: Presia'el1f . . . .... ,FRANCIS CARR Vice-President . .JOHN GOEPFERT, JR. Sccrelary .,...,..... HELEN SHADIS Treasurer , . .,... DoRoTHY MILLER And now the curtain falls. We have ac- complished much in the four acts and we hope that we may continue to do so in the future with as much gaiety, harmony and enjoyment as we have done in the past. From the joyous allegro of our Freshman year to the sober maestoso of our graduation procession we have given our best to swell the chorus of the fame of M. C. H. S. and the Class of 1941. I THEME HISTGRY OUR valley, gashed and scarred by the un- relenting efforts of men to exploit its bur- ied wealth of anthracite, is unattractive to the eye of the casual traveler. We, who are part of the coal regions, know that we have compensations for the loss of the beautiful forests and the crystal streams which once graced our valley. We are a cosmopolitan people, made up of racial groups from Eu- rope, who came to work in our mines. These groups brought with them their lan- guages, their customs, their poetry and their music. When the Class of 1941 took a poll of the nationalities to be found in the group, the six which were predominant had a common thread of sympathy-music. A foreign language is often forgotten in this brave new worldf, customs fall into disuse, and poetry grows dim in the memory -but one chord of music can evoke scenes and memories long cherished and unfor- gettable. The Welsh of our town have always cele- brated March lst, the birthday of their patron saint, with a Welsh tea, which was always preceded by a concert, or an Eistedd- fod, during which competitions in many musical classes were held. L 87 The Irish element delighted in fast jigs and tender, sentimental ballads of home and country. St. Patrick's Day was the date of the annual minstrel. The Poles like martial music. The rhythms are strong and decided, reflecting their struggle for independence. There is an undertone of sadness, but throughout one is conscious of an unfailing courage. The English display their love of country and sing about their home land. Their music illustrates the tender aspects of patriotism. In the German music we find a senti- mental touch. Theirs are songs of the home. Usually a thread of domesticity is brought out in their songs and poetry. The Lithuanians show their love of music by the excellent renditions of the Lith- uanian choirs and choruses, which are truly a work of art and a delight to hear. Music is the leveling touch in our com- munity which makes us kin. We are proud of our racial heritage, we are proud of the fact that our High School is the only high school in this area which presents an opera as a yearly music project, we are proudest of our spirit of cooperation, which allows us to sing, My Country ,Tis of Thee,', best of all our songs. J SING A SUNG OF JACK GOEPFERT has been selected by the Associated Press as All-State center on the All-State basketball quintet, receiving the most votes of any individual mentioned for a position on the team. This is no trifle when we consider the rosters of the compet- ing basketball teams and find an approximate total of 916 eligible teams. Allowing an average of ten players per squad, we have an approximate total of 9,160 boys competing for this honor. And this signal honor bestowed on Jack expresses the state- wide recognition he has won. During his Sophomore year, '38-'39, Jack was placed on the third team of this choice player list. In his Junior year, the season of ,39-'40, he was placed on the second team, second to a boy who had won this honor the previous year. In this our record of high school days we wish to express our sincere admiration of one of the greatest players who ever wore our colors, the Maroon and Black. boys. l 33 l SENIORS . . . STANLEY KILKUSKIE, one of the best all-around athletes that Mahanoy City High School has had, turned the trick again! Stiney was victor in the King Basketball tournament for the season of '40-'41, thus becoming the second boy ever to have this title for two different seasons. He annexed the title for the first time in his Freshman year and again in his Senior year. He won this title by com- piling the most points of any individual in this con- test, which featured a field of about two hundred Lawrence Ryan has been the only other indi- vidual to Capture this title for two years. . AND THEIR LAURELS WON FRANCIS CARR, President of the Senior Class, ap- peared in the limelight when he won the District Award in the Original Oration department of the Forensic League, defeating a contestant who had won the title the previous year. He qualified to rep- resent the District in the State Finals, which were held at Newcastle, Pa. Although defeated in the finals, we hold him high in our esteem, for the contestant who won was one of the best ever heard at the State Contest. WE PAY tribute to our Music Department in our calendar of notable events. During the year 1940-1941 our musical depart- ment was outstanding. The members of the Band and Orchestra sacrificed their time repeatedly in order that these organ- izations might be the success they were. ONE other accomplishment of this de partment, the production of three operas within four years, cannot go unmen- tioned. The Bohemian Girl, The Chimes of Normandy, and Martha, were the operas produced. These operas were under the capable direction of Miss Katie M. Rinck. ONE boy, David Hodowanetz, was an outstanding member of these organizations. He is the Hrst Stu- dent Band Leader of M. C. H. S. and also organized and conducted the Swing Band. This Band pro- vided the entertainment and music for two dances in the school gym. 1 IRELAND . . . KILLARNEY Angels fold fbvir wings and rex!

NFLORENCE STRIDli JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY THREE years ago the present Junior Class entered this High School as a group of scared Freshmen, but as the weeks melted into months and the months into their pres- ent three years, they have become a group of which any school can be proud. As Freshmen, representatives of the class took part in the two-part Christmas pro- gram. Then, as Sophomores, our Girls' Chorus rendered the Easter cantata very capably, and again during this year several of our Sophomore girls took part in the opera, The Bohemian Girl. During our third year in High School the Juniors were especially honored when granted the privilege of presenting a play for the benefit of their Yearbook. This was the first time in many years that the Junior Class did this. In this same year a very successful Bake Sale and Z1 Junior Dance were held. Our brilliant athletic record affords the Class of 1942 much pride. On the football, track and basketball teams the Juniors took very important parts. Because of their out- standing playing three members of the Jun- ior Class captured permanent places on the Varsity Basketball team and helped pull thc Mahanoy Hi team out of many diflicult sit- uations. Especially was their ability proved when the team entered the District finals, by defeating superior teams, and thus prov- ing themselves an honor to both their class and school. Among other activities, The Nugget proved very popular with our class. On its staff were seventeen Juniors, who helped contribute much to the success of the paper. On the Gym Team Junior girls stood out in all events. Clubs captured the interest of the Juniors with a Discussion Club, Girls' Intramural Basketball and Hit Pin, Baseball teams, a Girls' Chorus, and the Boys' Dart, Table Tennis, Quoit Tournaments and In- tramural Basketball teams formed by the Junior teachers. The aim of this, the passing Junior Class, is to pave the way for bigger and better things for the following classes. -MARY BURKE, '42. i921 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY ON SEPTEMBER SIXTH, nineteen hundred forty, the Sophomore Class, two hundred thirty-six in number, entered dear old M. C. H. S. with that green Freshman look now developed into a brilliant hue of Maroon and Black. We are more than ever deter- mined to become the best senior class yet produced by our Alma Mater, and by our record of achievements to date, we are well on our way to attaining that distinction. members of our class have already uncommon ability in scholastics, and athletics. We have an unusual The shown music, amount of students with GU in every sub- ject who are attaining high honors daily. Our class makes up a large majority of the faithful, following every sport, whether it be basketball, football, soccer, volley ball, or even table tennis. We have done well, both on the field and in the grandstand. In musical ability we also stand out among the other classes, for we have rep- resentatives in the Choral Group, Orchestra, Band, Junior Band, Drum and Bugle Corps, and the new Jazz Band. The Sophomore Class has enthusiastically joined the numerous clubs and activities offered it by the school. Our members have shown surprising ability as public speakers and among those competing in the Forensic League, three of our number: Edward Dil- chus, Mary Bogdanavich and Louise Leiby, were chosen to represent the school in the district eliminations. Twenty Sophomore girls have joined the Library Club sponsored by Miss Anstock and fifty are members of Miss Rinck's Chorus, while Social Dancing has seen many a Sophomore boy and girl. We take great pride in the choice of Rose Durkin as the first Drum Majorette of the Girls' Drum and Bugle Corps, but we are especially proud of the fact that all the officers of the Student Council are Sopho- mores. The President of the Council is Wil- liam Klein, the Vice-President, Joseph Flamini, the Secretary, Helen Cehelesky, and the Treasurer, Josephine Boland, while many others take an active part in both the House and the Senate. NVe have thoroughly enjoyed our Guid- ance program under the watchful eye of Miss Barnhart, our vocational advisor, and we have learned much from the excellent speeches given by such outstanding citizens as Rev. Longsdorf, Mr. Russell Green and Mr. James Miles, who spoke on this year's topic, Character Building. The Sophomore Class extends congratula- tions and best wishes to the Class of ,41. May you make your mark in the world as you did in good old M. C. H. S., but make way for the Class of '43. -LoU1sE LEIBY. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Lo, AND what do we behold! Two hundred thirty-eight timid Freshmen, pupils from local public, parochial and re- gional schools, entering the portals of Mahanoy City High School to begin their education in this institution. However, the Class of 1944 soon lost this timidity, became acquainted to the new routine and developed a great devotion for their Alma Mater. These modest Freshmen, besides showing interest in the regular subjects, became participants in extra-curricular activ- ities. The Held of athletics appealed to both girls and boys. The boys demonstrated great earnestncss and ability in all sports undertaken. The cage league introduced by Messrs. Goepfert and jones aroused lively enthusiasm among the boys. Two of our members, Louis Coccia and Edward Klipola, are members of the football squad and there are four Freshmen on the junior Varsity. 9 The Forensic Club has especially appealed to members of our class. We are represented in the Band and Girls' Drum and Bugle Corps. A number of pianists are also in our midst. One ot' the most noted characteristics of the Freshman Class is their response to all calls for aid. They gave graciously to all causes, including the National Defense League, Red Cross Roll Call, and March of Dimes. In addition they loyally sup- ported all aliairs conducted by the school, being well rep- resented at school dances and card parties. for success are extended to the members Our best wishes of the Senior Class, who are about to further their education or take upon themselves some of the responsibilities of the the Freshman Class is to make our Alma world. The goal of Mater as proud of our class as it is of the Class of '41. -ROSE V. PANGONIS. 3l ENGLAND DRINK TO ME ONLY WITH THINE EYES THE English people, guarded by the sea like a jewel set in silver, have always had the feeling of security and sureness. In their music and dances there is an extremely lively, yet determined spirit. They are not snobbish, but possess a basic stolidity and refinement, which may be mistaken for lack of humor. Their poetry and music breathe both of home and happy hours. fm Af Q 1 ,rf YEARBOOK STAFF XVELL, here it is, the 'Qfinish Do you like it?

Now in its fourteenth year of publication, The Nugget has been greatly improved by the establishment of a special English-journalism class for staff members, under the direction of Miss Stella Hinch, senior English teacher and Nugget advisor. Instead of following the usual course of study, this group works on the paper during the class period. By this plan students receive credit for their work on The Nuggel. Issued every three weeks during the school year, The Nugget brings to the student body details of school happenings, scholastic and athletic achievements, extra-curricular activities, and serves as a medium for eX- pression of student opinion. As proved by the awards it has won, The Nugget is certainly a credit to M. C. H. S. i931 Q 2 N 51' QV? 3 , 'B ,vip ov f x 1 .

This group had been under the capable direction of Miss Katie M. Rinck, Music Instructress. They have appeared on several assembly programs in the past, and also at the Spring Concert. The girls, when Juniors, appeared also. Sanctus, by Gounod, is the favorite number of the members of the Chorus. They have in a Way adopted it, for they have used it at every appearance. It was sung for the last time by this group at their Com- mencement Exercises. The Chorus of '41 Wishes to thank Miss Rinck for her untiring efforts. They appreciated her interest in them, and her patience with them. They have enjoyed working with her and feel a little sad when they realize it is all over. 51001 M. C. H. M. C. H. S. is proud of its Band, one of the outstanding bands in Schuylkill County. Under the capable leadership of W. C. Becker they learn to drill well and play equally as well. The Band, which plays at all football games and all home basketball games, adopt- ed a new plan of organization and coopera- tion this year. Members are to be given, at the end of their senior year, an emblem and S. BAND a pin, varying, according to the number of years the recipient has played in the Band. The officers of the Band this year are: Sludeuf Leader DAVID HODOWANETZ Presiden! , . , . . DAVID BRUNI Vice-President . .OLIN PHILLIPS Treasurer . , JOSEPH MCCORMICK DRUM-MAJOR BETTY XVOOD, tall, charming, and ca- pable, makes a striking picture in her role as Drum-Major. She has worn the colorful uniform of M. C. H. S. since she was a lanky eighth grader. The Band follows her shining baton through the intricacies of its drills. We look forward to having Betty as our Drum- Major for another season. 51013 .., ...S 'mf , :wud '52 iff 23 -ML f'!fiQ'f'i 75524 , :2gg5?.ygf ik T122 ' .1 -X ' ' 'P fWgf'9 . ..

Kline. Today, under the direction of Mr. W. C. Becker, it plays for assemblies and social events in High School. The Orchestra, which has been enlarged, is a very fine or- ganization. It has always been a credit to M. C. H. S., and in recent years it has ex- celled in interpreting the most diflicult music. We hope that the years to come will bring added laurels to our Orchestra and to those who strive to uphold its traditions of service and good music. SWING BAND THIS year M. C. H. S. has had its Hrst successful swing band. The Swing Band, which was organized by David Hodowanetz, Student Leader of the Band, has played for High School dances and social events. This Band is an asset to the school since students themselves furnish the music, hence, the school organizations save money and learn a practical lesson. Let us hope in future years, M. C. H. S. will have other successful swing bands. IIOZI i L THE FORENSIC LEAGUE THE Forensic League, which gives many students an opportunity to speak before an audience, is also a contest in which the win- ners represent our school elsewhere. Any student is eligible to enter the speech activi- ties. The various divisions of the Forensic League are Extempore Speaking-in this field of speech the pupil studies a certain topic and gives his opinions or ideas about itg Original Oration--in which the student writes upon his own subject and speaks on itg Shakespearean Reading-here the stu- dent may select a portion of any Shakes- pearean comedy and recite itg Poetry-the student may choose any poem, along with one required poem, by certain poetsg Dec- lamation-several selections are given to the student, from which he chooses one. All recitations have a time limit. The students who represented our school at the District eliminations this year were: Edward Dilchus, Extempore Speakingg Francis Carr -- Original Orationg Helen Kustra - Shakespearean Readingg Louise Leiby-Poetryg Mary Bogdanavich-Deo lamation. The students went directly to Northampton, where they took part in the District eliminations. All participants were coached by Miss Marjorie Ball. Francis Carr won Hrst place in the Dis- trict eliminations for his Original Oration, and competed in the State Finals, held at Newcastle, Pa., on April 18-19. DRUM AND BUGLE CORPS THE second edition of our Drum and Bugle Corps, arrayed in the familiar Maroon and Black uniforms that marked them as Mahanoy's Own appeared on the held drilling with the Band. Its pep and snap created much favorable comment and the football fans applauded every appearance of the organ- ization. The 1940-1941 Corps has been very active in the sale of advertising for football programs. The money derived from rhis source was used to purchase uniforms for the Corps. l103J HEROES JUST HAPPE B31 ROBERT FINCH AND BETTY SINIITH PRESENTED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF THE MAI-IANOY CITY HIGH SCHOOL APRIL 24 AND 25 BY ARRANGHMIZNT WITH SAMULI.

Six of them, count 'eml Our intramural activities are famous and popular. Lack of time prevented the usual interclass basketball tournament but the season had many exciting moments and scores of participants, f129j BOYS' GYM TEAM ONE of the best-liked programs of the year is the Boys' Gym Exhibition. Each year the calibre of the team seems higher and the feats are more spectacular. This year was no exception. Under the capable direction of Coach John L. Goepfert the team per- formed difficult and intricate evolutions on the gym apparatus. The horse, the par- allel bars, and the springboard each came in for a share of attention. Cn the mats the team excelled in feats of tumbling. Paul Rajkowski is outstanding in this phase of the activity. He has been a member of the team throughout his school career. Although the gym team is not a letter- winning activity, the boys are given an em- blem at che end of the year to signify their participation in the exhibition. Almost fifty boys took part in this year's exhibition. An activity which is increasing in popularity, tumbling, as exemplified by the annual exhibition of the gym team, is one of the most popular of the intramural activities. 51301 TRACK NINETEEN FORTY-ONE proved to be a ban- ner year in track activities for the Seniors. For the first time in the history of M. C. H. S. the same class has won the track meet for four consecutive years. This intramural activity, the interclass meet, is under the capable supervision of Mr. John L. Goep- fert. The ratings of the classes are as follows: 1. Seniors ,, .... 1062 points 2. Juniors . .. 32M points 3. Freshmen . . 16 points 4. Sophomores 7 points The Seniors took first place in all events except the 100-yard dash. Jack Goepfert, Maroon and Black stalwart, and son of the l 131 Coach, captured first place in all the events in which he participated. M. C. H. S. also took part in three inter- scholastic track meets. At Coaldale, M. C. H. S. took second place in the pole vault, Paul Rajkowski vaulting, and third in shot- put, with Jack Goepfert heaving the shot- put. At Mount Carmel, M. C. H. S. again cap- tured the second place in the pole vault, with Paul Rajkowski vaulting. At the District 11 meet, held at Potts- ville, Jack Goepfert succeeded in placing fourth in the javelin throw, fifth in the shotput, and fifth in the discus throw. This year our Senior track team proved to be a success. W'e hope that our school team will follow their example next season. 1 i 132 SOCCER THE baby of all sports, major or minor, at M. C. H. S. is the newly organized Soccer. Appearing in the autumn, under the direction of Coach john L. Goepfert and Assist- ant Coach Norman Jones, the new sport won instant popularity. A league was organized and a schedule of games arranged. The teams played once a week during the season and after a mad scramble for top honors the Tommies succeeded in wrest- ing the first laurels from their earn- est competitors. With this excellent beginning we are sure that this new sport will gain many followers. The Tommies have succeeded in establishing a record which excells in breaking records. Soccer teams may come and Soccer teams may go, but they were the Champions of 1940- 1941, the first season Soccer was played in M. C. H. S. and no one can take away that distinction. May the next season see this baby sport grow to major proportions. We are readily attaining our Utopian ideal of a sport for every boy, and every boy a participant in some sport.

Many of the songs originated as hymns, which were sung a Capella on the long journeys, on foot, across the Welsh hills to che place of Worship. These expeditions, being long and tiresome, the people would make up tunes to known poems, to make the time pass more quickly. This music was often Written down by various persons on the tour. By these means, many of the Welsh compositions became known. 1 :ggrlgi EE ll I I 5-4211 I 2 !
