Events in the McAdoo High School during the past ten years, while they appear, at first glance, insignificant, nevertheless, mark substantial gains toward the better. Considering the limited means available to the school district and the general poor times, the school boards have done creditable work in pro- viding new facilities and equipment. The principals and faculty can be commended for maintaining high scholastic standardsg the athletic coach for teams of high calibreg the music department for excellent organiz- ation and the student body and alumni for their constant loyalty and cooperation.

Consider it as an attempt to bring out, by picture and word, high school activities during the past year. There has been no extreme departure in the formal make-up of other years since it would be impractical and unnecessary. Since pictures are much more explicit than Words, photography has been made the dominant feature of this volume.

GRADE SCHOGL FACULTY Ever watchful of our welfare, always interested in our scholarship, the grade school teachers have never failed to aid us in any difficulty. Their skillful guidance of our fundamental grammar school education has had a marked influence upon our high school work. For this unselfish devotion they have deservedly merited the respect of our entire community. .fb .221 lil - !! 1 L 15, .,,, xx E' - xg ,UC , Mai QQ 1 , 62- six W I !fJ Q f' my 5,15 V., W , I M: :Tiv- J, M.

Bielen Slush's', scholastic attainments were made on his extens- ive outside reading. He has the reputation of being a Web- ster, just a family trait. His itinerant nature is plainly revealed by his lackadaisical character. johnny obtains his spending money by working in the evenings. His most common expression begins with Did you ever. . . 4 Andrew Bozena Look for Gacie in the company of the opposite sex. Here he shines, being anything but bashful. Naturally bright, he studies only when necessary. His time absorbers are basketball and traveling with Joe and Kotchy. A flashing smile tops oif his varied wardrobe. Truly he is the latest fashion plate in every sense of the word. joseph T. Brennan Like all wide awake fellows Joe delighted in playing little pranks on his classmates, and telling windy stories. But that's not all. He can spiel off the formulas in Chem- istry like the A B C's. Tell us again how you do it, Joe? We have observed at the school functions that he is an accomplished and polished dancer. Iobn Brewery . A Home-room or assembly program just wouldn't be complete without a song from Squint. He is one of our . . . . . f best entertainers, not with his jokes, but with those unny little cartoons he insists upon scratching out during a class. Can you keep a secret gentle reader? We've got a second Thomas Edison in our midst. joseph I. Brulcy Joe's ability comes to the front as he cleverly performs on the trombone. I-Ie ardencly advocates ice-skating and certainly dancing. Social events were given his entire attention. Class room capers are his joy but he is by no means a pedant. Joe is amusing with his pantomimes of various characters. Philip A. Curio! A rollicking classmate very much concerned in fire- fighting is Philip. He appears to be a believer in the benefits of a sunny disposition. Always in a squabble of some sort, he is one of the group who makes our home- room hum. Upon many occasions his practicality comes to the front when he solves intricate problems with case. David 1. Coll David's interest in Basketball and Football is unlimited. No, he doesn't play, but being an Athletic Manager, he's just as important as the players. As to schoolwork, he allows brother joseph to excel, just to keep peace in the family. joseph I. Coll Colly becomes cool and calculating when Math problems are on the board. Possessing an engaging person- ality, he converses by means of his own original opinions. I-Ie is a tormenting and distracting fellow but being a reg- ular guy he is easily forgiven. Good luck to a lad who can easily make the grade. Edward C. Cossman In the past few months there has been a marked change in this fellow's conduct. Once the sly instigator of many noisy disturbances, of late he has changed to a quiet, serious and reticent young man. Perhaps he is thoughtfully looking ahead to his place in the community as a useful respected citizen. The gusty guffaws which Edward can emit to show his genuine pleasure at a joke, can keep an audience in rollicking good humor. Paul L. Curran Bashful and shy-Oh my! Paul is more often seen than heard. But when once started it's not easy to quiet him. Do you know why many people in McAdoo are so well informed? Itis because as a budding journalist he is doing good work in reporting news promptly and accurately. Charles D. Curry With the exception of lackadaisical, nonchalant is the only suitable adjective to describe Charles. Do you know that if the school burned down Qknock woodj Charles would be the only one to remain calm and unperturbed. Are all Junior firemen that way? Vicfor Dzwidovicb Vic is one of the serious shy type. His excellent grades stamp him as one of our most brilliant students. His salubrity is revealed by his perfect attendance record. He cuts up in a modified form. Arts attract him more than Science. Hiking and reading are his favorite pastimes. Donald 1. Dougherty Versatility in all fields of knowledge depicts Don. His sagacity as a speaker is coupled with assorted presentations. He has his own complicated theories on the value of study. Clowning occasionally is also one of his numerous hobbies. Donald did Hne work as the Vice-President of the class, and Staff photographer. john I. Dougherty To John the most useful invention ever devised is the comb. Without it his pride, a shock of billowy hair, would be sadly amiss. Schoolmates delight in mussing it up just to annoy him. Under his pride is an original creative mind far worth more cultivating. Daniel F. Fogarty Although Danny is generally found wearing out some- one's patience with his prehistoric jokes and stories, he causes no disturbance in study period-not much! What! you didn't as yet ride in Danny's Ford? Ask him for a demonstration and an explanation of the intricacies of its operation. james I. Greybusb Ask James, he knows, is an oft-repeated phrase among Physics students. He is one of our elite few who do not have to worry when report cards come out. Being attentive, studious, and ambitious, he typifies the teacher's ideal student. George I. Kakalec What sweet delight a quiet life affords. George seems to have neither past, present nor future. If silence is golden, then surely he is hoarding. But here's a little known fact- he plays a grand game of football. Ask our coach, he knows. W'illiumf R. Kleckner Bill participated much in athletics. He spent the major- ity of his time on the parallel bars. Perhaps he devoted too much of his time to gymnastics and not enough to German. How about that hunting escapade. Can't you tell us the truth now? William B. Knauer Bill likes Chemistry for breakfast, some Physics for lunch and as an appetizer for supper he masticates Trig combined with Latin. As Editor of this book we couldn't have made a better choice. To him belongs the double dis- tinction of being an excellent friend and a fine student. George E. Kotisbion Here is the actor of the class. Kotchy has a rather humorous but peculiarly graceful way of expressing him- self, physically or mentally. His spare time is spent prac- ticing swing drumming. George is optimistical, shrewd, and at times obstinate, but always a staunch friend. He is also quite an athlete noted for his alertness in pouncing on fumbles. Anthony G. Kovatch We have noticed that Tony has ever been quiet and unobtrusive. A rare virtue in this day and age. If all men were like him, the world would have a long reign of peace. Being the least troublesome of the class, we are sure he will face few battles in life. Earnest Kristof Ernie's chief characteristics are his well-known laugh and his forward manner. He is one of our better students, and is something of an idealist. His intended vocation is flying and his avocation is sailing fTahiti?j. Ernie de- serves credit for adapting himself so readily to our customs. His succinct deductions prove his keen reasoning and his readiness for debate at anytime. Paul T. Mafweecba Wonderful musical ability is found in Paul. But rest assured it wasn't only his singing which made him pop- ular with the fairer sex. You'll find a true friend in Paul. Palrick I. McGready Size does not prevent Pat from being an able basket- ball player or a versatile musician. In the latter he is above average. Long will he be remembered for his renditions of Dinah. In class he is inquisitive and persistent but pos- sesses definite likes and dislikes. Being quick in mind and body, he can easily hold his own. ,,-- Charles F. McBride Charlie uses his deep full-toned voice in a carefree and appealing manner to make himself a fluently convincing speaker. Being naturally intelligent, he does not let studies take the spice out of his life. Of this he often jokingly reminds us. His ambition is to become, and we know he will, a tactful lawyer. He was the staunch guardian of our class till. Arpad T. Mcszaros Arp has a creative mind, is quiet and has the rare gift of dry humor. He makes the best of his resources. His interests lie in the fascinating field of radio, comparing his notes with Donsy as they discuss everything from A to Z. His pastimes are confined to the sciences and studying the mystical. William R. Minor Someone must have been telling an unusually good joke when Bill was posing. He is seen much more often than heard. He perks up his ears for all jokes, and is always ready to contribute one of his own for the gang. We wonder why he is so often found gazing into space. Seeing stars? Ecl ward D. Mfmick Eddie's reticent and hesitative manner keep his latent talents from emerging. But those who break down the barrier are rewarded with an amiable character. We are told he enjoys evening walks-now we know Why he uses every study period minute. Ralph I. Motsuk It seems our class was blessed with capable energetic persons who become-Athletic Managers. Ralph enjoys an occasional joke, a debate in P. O .D., a game of Basketball and blondes. Nevertheless, schoolwork never was neglected on any account. Edward S. Musial Meet originality, mechanical dexterity and incomparable mathematical ability. When not in a serious mood Qif he ever wasj Ed is quite mischievous. His diversified hob- bies include photography and tinkering with his ancient automobile. The latter attracts much attention. He with- stood terriic verbal barrage during the last three years from a whole host of tormentors. Valentine 1. O,Grodnick Every class has its' comedian. Val always keeps the room in an uproar with his unconventional remarks. One glance at his report card will convince you that he studies well. His favorite pastime is arguing with anybody, any- time, anywhere, on any subject no matter how trivial or inconsequential. Tell him a fact and he will always go one better. His only match and prime heckler is Shorty.', Iolan M. Pamfnko For John, life is just one big happy moment after an- other. Easy going and unconcerned. There are three things Horsey likes to do best viz., ice skate, ice skate, and ice skate. His greatest vice, however, is exaggerating. He can make a one-story building look like a sky-scraper. But who objects. Andrew Petruncio Nipper gets pleasure openly teasing certain class mem- bers. His popular interpretations of cow boy ballads were as entertaining as his witty, satirical, self-composed talks. Classroom antics dragged down our navy man from the higher marks he could have obtained. Athletics, especially basketball, content this stolid member of the Uke club. Ste ploen Plaskonas Complacent, unassuming, and studious are reflections of this calm young man. He held down the right tackle post on the team. Steve prefers to keep to himself, which ex- plains Why he is an expert at working cross-word puzzles. Quoting a teacher's nutshell remarks, we agree, he's no bother at all. A sincere friend with nutritious humor for those who penetrated his silent recesses. Wasil Plaskonas Wasil is talkative, assuming and not at all studious. Nevertheless he is a very good scholar. He covered the other tackle post. Noticeable of Wishy is his wool- gathering, awakening now and then to indulge in noisy arguments. Senior relapse did not have any effect on his specific math ability. He earned top honors in Algebra and Trig. john L. Pleva Did you ever ask Plev a question and receive a serious answer. Aha! we thought not. This boy has a decided streak of devilment in his make-up. But who objects? No one. Instead we encourage him because he leaves a ray of sunshine wherever he goes. joseph S. Pipala Under his flaxen thatch, Joseph has a brain quick at grasping and strong at retaining new ideas. His school work is as neat and systematic as his own personality. He talks, and laughs in even quiet tones which though slightly high pitched are not grating nor monotonous. Baseball with the Heights team provides an outlet for his summer recreation. joseph V. Postupack Popularly recognized as one of the greatest athletes yet to graduate, few know he also excels in scholastics. He is aggressive and energetic when his enthusiasm is aroused. As our resourceful president, he displayed his leadership ability and his dynamic personality. His general aptitude and am- bitions augur a successful career in his contemplated under- takings. Stephen Resheter Though by nature uncommunicative, Stephen never lost an opportunity to talk about Labor Problems. He can recite but it takes a derrick to raise his arm. When checking over his homework papers, which he always handed in promptly, it took a magnifying glass and a decoding device to de- cipher his own unique scrawl. Lewis G. Rinker Encounter the foremost huntsman of the class. Rink's life, it seems, would be boring unless he could dream or talk of the outdoors. He will always take time out in class for a joke or two. He can be pugnaciously serious but not for long. Athletics, especially gymnastics favor his sturdy stature. Theodore I. Sahulsky Pecker is an amusing fellow. Oddly left-handed and roguish make him very likeable. Lately his interest is in the pugilistic art. Happy-go-lucky, with no apparent cares, his optimism will lessen his trials in life. Work does not bother him because he can always get around to it. Michael Sashko Mike is best known for his stellar exploits on the foot- ball and basketball teams. Being a restless chap, always on the move we wonder at his quietness in classs. Tall, slender, and handsome, he should do a lot with feminine hearts. True modesty keeps him from the Q'spotlite group. john Schott One seldom hears john but it takes a wise man to know when to be silent. Much of the success of our band can be attributed to John's musical ability. He always lends a helping hand whenever social functions are held. john I. Shele pets Behold a rhythm king in the making. Peculiar to his external appearance, he spends his leisure hours lucubrating statistics, his favorite source of recitative material, on cur- rent topics or the World War. His vocalizing, whistling selections, were popular features on our distinctive assembly programs. Shep is a fidgety, happy-go-lucky sort of fellow who loves above everything else to sprawl out in the most contorted positions upon the classroom furniture. james 1. Smith Hirsute adornment in the form of side-burns made James the admiration of the girls and the scorn and envy of the boys. He wants to become, and we believe he can an actor of the smooth type like Adolph Menjou or Tom Brown. Stunts on a bicycle or riding it through hazardous places give him great pleasure. He is the most self-assured member of our class and could be a top-ranking student if he saw any use for study. Andrew B. Siefanisko Shorty has always a Chronic chipl' on his shoulders for his soap box debates. If one were to observe his nature more closely, one will find in discussions he is rather long winded. He also enjoys pestering his classmates. Otherwise we find him to be jovial and intellectual. His argument- ative power always rose to its height in Democracy period. Here's hoping a swell lad leaves his heckling tendencies to be divided among the Juniors. George Stronko Venture into an amateur boxing show and you are apt to find George as one of the principals in the squared ring. Always eager to get into action in athletics he is willing to practice long and hard. Never bragging, ever modest. we believe he should assert himself more frequently. In studies George is just as diligent as he is in athletics. joseph A. Subeck Shadows! Weird figures and excitement! Don't be alarmed, it's only Subey reading a mystery thriller. Through any disturbance Joe remains calm and unruffled. But that's not the only reason he is admired by both fem- inine and masculine members of his class. , N icbolas Sabina Come day-go day-that's Nicky. Thereis never a worry or a care on his mind. He takes life as it comes, for he feels that there's plenty of time later on to be burdened with the affairs of the world. Nevertheless he is an excep- tional student whose neat, systematic and logical home- work can be held up as a model anywhere. Leo Suloosfavsky Leo is easily recognized by his impulsiveness, determina- tion and hasty walk. He delights in tossing ten dollar words and phrases at us. Manifestation of his athletic abil- ity was spragged by hard luck. After years of practice to make the team, an eye injury prevented it. Leo is our foremost science student. William I. Swartz Bill, a more reserved member of that East End Gang, is a well-liked fellow. A veteran woodsman, an able listener, a striving student is a meager sketch. As well as being good-natured, he was sincere in all his undertakings. Swartzie is our only gymnast to flip without mechanical aid. joseph F. Taraba i Joe came to us in his Senior year fwith his gum and his Fordj. He was so busy roller-skating and cranking his Model T, that he and his books had little opportunity to become acquainted. Whatls this we hear about Red being your favorite color? Iobn I. Takacb Self-appointed escort for our girls, a veritable Don Romeo, he not only plays but acts the part well. Beneath his gay mannerism lives a game fellow who can compete with our intellects! Our future Tailor UQ believes in advertising his handicraft. Senior activities received his hearty support. Iosepb P. Temprovich Easy-going, hale, and hardy-the best product the farm has produced. Tempy has sown his seeds of friendship and we are sure that at harvest time his crop Qof friends, will be abundant. Eugene Tibansley A mischief maker, who is always ready for good clean fun. Geney is overflowing with potential energy which up until now has not been able to be transformed into kinetic. And what a story-teller! What a mechanic! What a man! Adjectives fail us. Mary I. Artim This lovable lass can be quiet and reserved or mischiev- ous and witty whenever the occasion arises. Is it small wonder that she has stolen a place in the hearts of all her classmates? Our only complaint is that she spends too much time with her books! Anne M. Augustine Let us introduce to you a neat, well-dressed student, a sincere sympathetic friend, and an all around good girl. On other pages of this book are found samples of her artistic ability. With these sterling qualities, Anne can't help but succeed. But she should be a little more punctual! Rose A. Billett We believe Rose could out-talk most members of the Senior Classg but there is always wisdom in her words. Being musically inclined, she playes an instrument and sings. Occasionally she feels poetic and the result is a charming little verse. G'luck Rose! Clara C. Budell Any parent can take pride in a daughter who copies Clara as a model girl. A strong sense of duty and an intense interest in her studies merits her very high grades. Any flat joke becomes a success when Clara responds to it with her soft subdued laughter. Vigorous ballroom dancing in the latest modern manner is her favorite recreation. Marion A. Cara Big things come in small packages is an old adage. Mary keeps from growing tall by carrying her books around. However, those of us who know this miniature girl, are assured that a tall future awaits her, because as a nurse she expects to do big things. Have patience with your patients Nursie! Mary T. Cichowic Speak to Mary to receive a blush and a smile from a gay lass. She is a fervid Girl Scout as well as a diligent band member. Clarinet trilling was her fancy. Her study periods were spent in increasing her supply of tatted handker- chiefs. Alberta T. Czekalski Alberta is our example of an optimist. Right or wrong she is always cheerful. Her play on high-brow words is screamingly funny. She can outdo Gracie Allen! But Al- berta has a streak of seriousness in her make-up. Her report card is definite proof of that. Grace T. Donlin Grace's refined character receives the admiration and respect of all her classmates. Polite and dutiful are the virtues which comprised noticeably this unconspicuously ideal student 4 -1 Elizabeth A. Galovich Cheerful is the word for Betsy. Joining us in our Junior ear she soon became a prime favorite, proven by Y offices she held. This year we made use of her singular ' f talents when we elected her assistant Editor and typist o 1 the Reverie. Her pleasing annunciations and all-around intelligence place her among our elite. Iosepbine F. Gutosky This is one of that inseparable pair Gutosky and Sacco. This is the quiet one QQ. Leave it up to Jo-jo to go laces and do things It's either tact or technique or a p . strange mixture of both that make her a pleasant person. When she begins her career as a nurse the song I Don't Wanna Get Well will become popular all over again. Florence A. Krenszwage Flon is very quiet as a rule but she has proven a Bureau of Information to all who sought her aid. She is generally found in the middle of things with the excep- tion of marks. Here she stands on top! The efficient way she manages her Refreshment Committees is commendable. Emilie H. Krohn Although Emilie came to our class just last year, she has endeared herself to most of us through her easy-going fi d h r workin cross-word puzzles, manner. One can n e g singing popular songs or telling waggery stories. Cecelia T. Lawson All the way from Lofty, Cecelia is transported daily. She is easily recognized by her smile, her blush, and her giggle. Outside of class she chatters incessantly, inside she is as quiet as any little child should be. Her lunches prove that she is an excellent cook and baker. Mary T. Lesicko . Mary is friendly and jovial but seems always in a hurry. Her extensively excellent recitations will always be recalled. A striving student such as Mary should become a well- informed teacher. This is her ambition. Her courage to carry six subjects proves she is not afraid of hard work. ' Grace K. McBride , Grace's fine mild manners are apparent in the way she is able to get along in harmony with her brothers. This also holds true in her high school associations. A fine crop of jet black and naturally wavy hair, setting off soft dreamy eyes, make up the most impressive feature about her person. She tells that her greatest fun is reading serious modern books. Theresa M. M cShc'a Dignified and conscientious, Theresa portrays the sens- ible debutante. We wonder why she dreads public speaking. We like to listen to debonair maids. Many of our activities owed their success to Theresa's never failing assistance. - Madelyne T. Moretti Come day, go day, school is a routine that takes no pleasure out of Madelyne's life. School affords a chance to carry on and polish the social side of her education. If we had afternoon teas at school, we believe Madelyne would be our choice of a perfect hostess for she knows just what to say and when not to say it. She is an avid reader of novels, reading every one in sight, but prefers biographies to any other form of literature. Carolyne R. Moye Generally Carolyne is very cheerful and vivacious, chat- tering and smiling to everybody. Still we have seen her lose her smile, the tears well up in her eyes and become indig- nant for some trifle. Parading in the hall with some friend breaks the monotony of sitting through dull recitations and study periods. Her classroom dreams are of summer time vacations and camping for she is one of the charter members of the local Girl Scouts. N ora A. O'Donnell Did your mother come from Ireland?,' is one question unnecessary to ask when one looks at Nora. Obviously the answer is yes. Her name, her features, and her manners are associated with much that is endearing about the land of Erin fnow Eire and pronounced Air-ahj. Any teacher will tell you that Nora is a quiet and consistently good pupil. Cathryne M. Organis Cathie is the pert, winsome brunette half of our cheerleading Seniors. She was always Johnny-on-the-spot when events concerning our Alma Mater were in the off- ing. Her frank conversations make her a predominant fav- orite. Still undaunted, Cathryne will follow her call of nursing. Q I Mary Pefresky Sob your woes to Mary if you want them published on the South Side page of the newspaper, for she is a most able assistant to her reporter brother. She is responsible for the publication of the school Honor Roll from which for- tunately it has never been necessary to omit her own name. Her favorite subject is Coal Mining Methods. In a war of words she can beat any boy by her keen logical arguments. Rose G. Sacco Here's the other member of that pair Gutosky and Sacco. This one's the noisy one! Rose likes to become involved in a Physics problem and find her own way out. She also delights in translating German exercises. Last but not least her lovely coiffures definitely prove her hair- dressing ability. Mary E. Slavin It takes fifty-four muscles of the face to produce a frown, and only two to make a smile-so Mary smiles. But why the duplicate homework in Latin Mary? What is all,the confidential whispering about, Mary? Mary A. Wasno Do red hair and green eyes imply a fiery temper? Oh no! Mary is as gentle and docile as the proverbial Mary's lamb Roller skating and Mary go hand in hand, as a diversion recreation, a social function, and a genuine pleasure Bumps won't be hard to take in life for by now she is accustomed to them. 1 elim .1-i1- Mollie R. Williams Mollie is a demure miss, being our strikingly petite Drum-Major. We look with pride on her many years of outstanding participation in social, scholastic, and band affairs. For want of a better topic to open conversation the boys always teased her about her rural residence. She is our example of poise and good-naturedness. Marie M. Winslow Steadfastly unselnsh cooperation has proven Marie's in- tense interest in extra-curricular activities. She was a competent secretary as well as an active cheerleader. Her name was a permanent fixture on our Honor Roll. Quite the recherche feminine of the class, Marie will be a deiinite success at anything. Lydia I. Wiskowslei This little doll, with the pert upturned nose, came to school on time one morning. It happened that her watch was fast. Such an event deserves to be mentioned. The phrase born to dance might have been meant for her. Dancing is just second nature, but not so with Algebra, is it Lydia? julia A. Yansura Julia, understanding and genial, rather than disappoint the fellows will listen to their idle prattle. She is a constant follower of all school sports. Being an efficient housekeeper is her biggest concern outside of school. zuzmuimfs V W ffff I i Stanley llrudisli, Michael Selserals, Peter Saliek, john l'auiner, Stephen Holushlsa, joseph Stalgaitis, Stephen Dieoyitslty, joseph llarinonoslay, 1 I 1 SEVLQ-l'S1Ei ' ..

How are we going to spend it? Are we set to assume the responsibility and dignity behtting Seniors in high school, or are we going to waste our time in slothful indolence? Are we ready to increase the pace and widen the scope of scholarship or are we going to relax and let down on studies in the linal lap? As a Class We have been up to standard in study and activity so far. Let us attempt seriously to do better in the future. The effort, let us assure you, will leave a multitude of its own rewards. The class has many good qualities which can be turned into valuable assets in all enterprises. ln the first place the class is ideal in sizeg it is not so large as to be unwieldy, nor is it so small 94 -JG! ,gs .PG 1 lintsr Roxxfrlmff lo Rigbllz Helen jenkins, Catherine Coll, Margaret Gula, Mary Hydushcek, Helen Tomoshosky, Helen Swenda, Anna Urban, Florence Russo, Mary Sheridan, Regina Gallagher.

All individuals are familiar to each other. In the second place, among the members there is a good proportion of capable and talented students. And finally, as has been evident in the past, there is an eagerness and enthusiasm to participate in extra-curricular functions. Wlmat can be expected? With cooperation and unity We can turn all our endeavors into success. The saying United we stand, divided We fall never holds more true than in this instance. It rests with us, whether we estab- lish enviable records and good will, or-just fail. J UNIOR STATISTICS Youngest ...,... ............. Lzghtest ......... ....A...,..

SOPI-IOMORE CLASS HISTORY Regardless of whether the epithet Soph may be construed to mean sophisticated or sophomoric, we have notably succeeded in passing one year of strenuous study and are well on toward the third. We will admit that we have become worldly wise in many ways, but also we wisely know there is still much to be learned. QGive us timej. Since our Fresh- man year we have been immersed in a great deal of routine school work. Many of us have learned to save time Qwhat for?l by ethcient study, and many have found use for it Csleepl. We are no longer bewildered or timid freshmen but confident high school students proceeding to do our best job. Under the combined efforts of our classroom teachers and upperclassrnen, we are developing and showing good possibilities. CNear time.j Looking at scholastic ability we observe that we are still maintaining the high standard set in our Freshman year, when we made up a large part of the Honor Roll fand delinquent listj. We are aiming to surpass the marlts set by the present Senior class. The ranks of the ..- .Y ,fv- Ifisi Roxx'--llmfl lo Rigblj: Alverna Artiin.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY skilled professions will be swelled when McAdoo High kicks us out into the world with a diploma if our predilections come true. Well represented, too, has been our class in activities outside of the classrooms. Active has been the support given our football and basketball teams in individual participation and consistent attendance. In the game or on the bench Cno matter wherej nevertheless. our representation was varsity timber. Not only from the bleachers did we cheer but the girls of our class were able assistant cheer- leaders Qso help usj. Thus, perceive how well the class of '40 has aided McAdoo High School in rounding out its greatest year in sports. fMr. Boyle and others helpedj. Praiseworthy, too, is the work of our class in the versatile well-drilled band. If we can stop bragging for a moment and put all joshing aside, we will say seriously that most of us have been eager and earnest stu- dents. It is our desire to maintain and pro- mote further good school spirit and loyalty up to the very day we graduate. 4 SGPHOMORE STATISTICS Youngest .,A..........,..........

Smart, modern and appropriate has been its repertoire. The rendition of old favorite tunes set to spark- ling swing created much attention and captured the fancy of all listeners. Yet, not for this alone did it draw favorable comment. Quality in music, appearance in drills and a ready spirit of cooperation made it a prize winning unit. Wfinning the first prize at the Mummers Parade in Hazleton and sending a representation to the Fdwin liranko Goldman Concert were the high points in a season of many events, which included appearances at the Operetta, Concerts, Civic Affairs and Athletic Contests. Through the efforts of the members, enough money was subscribed to purchase two flags for the school. Mr. Andrew ilupina, newly appointed Instructor of Music, ably assisted Mr. Frank Gallagher, its Director, to carry out this program successfully. SENIORS ROSE BILLET MDLLIE WILLIAMS AD S OO .

L l L l FOOTBALL Seven victories, two set-backs, and one tied game was the record of last year's football team, which brought another league champ- ionship to McAdoo High School and culminated its most success- ful season ever. Last August, one week before school opened, thirty-one eager football-minded boys packed off to the training camp at Still Creek Dam. Rain, which fell almost daily, bogged down the intensive drills, and somewhat dampened the joys of camp lfe. With hard but willing practice in fog and mud, the boys rounded into con- dition. A few scrimmnges deter- mined the most likely combina- tions for a good team. After two more weeks of polishing and per- fecting plays on its home field, the team was functioning smooth- ly and ready for its first game. Amid a setting of flood lights at the new Pottsville High School Stadium, McAdoo provided a sur'- prise for spectators, when Trella ran back a quick-kicked punt for 62 yards and a touchdown. Un- able to stop a heavy plunging fullback, McAdoo went down to defeat in the second half 14-7. Two weeks later at Cranberry and again under lighrs, the Mc- Adoo team encountered strong opposition from a fighting West Hazleton crew. It was late in the game that McAdoo scored twice, on long marches to the goal, and won over its traditional rival 12-0. Summit I-Iill's highly rated team was next trounced in a con- vincing fashion on its own field 19-7. The McAdoo boys showed a strong running attack although it was marred at times by penal- ties. Glezman, Trella and Postu- pack did the scoring for McAdoo. Bitterly contested was the game at Freeland. A lone tally made by Trella on an end run early in the first quarter was enough to send Freeland to defeat 6-O. Tense sit- uations, occasioned by intercep- tions, recovered fumbles and goal line defenses, made the game very thrilling. In the most colorful game of the year, Hazleton showed a strong passing attack which led directly to its scoring and won 13-6. At all other phases of the game, McAdoo outplayed its op- ponent but was able to eke out only one touchdown. Postupack's hard running made him easily the most effective player on the field. Postponed because of rain, the game with Lansford was played on a Monday evening at Coaldale. In a see-saw battle McAdoo scored a touchdown on a run by Trella. Shortly after' this Lansford re- covered a punt which touched a McAdoo player on the goal line and scored. In the fleeting last moments McAdoo put on a drive and was on the verge of scoring from the 2-yard line when the game ended 6-6. A booster crowd on Mitchell Day saw McAdoo High take over the battered Mining and Mechan- ical Institute 27-7. Postupack scored early when he blocked a punt, recovered the ball and scampered off for a touchdown. Stalgaitis, Trella, and Sashko con- tributed the remaining tallies. Plenty of scoring marked the game with St. Gabriels. Coach Boyle used every player on the squad in the contest. The contest was thrilling despite the lop-sided score in favor of McAdoo 56-22. The features of the game were the play of the Freshman team, Post- upack's three touchdowns on three plays, and Saxon's intercep- tion of a pass with a 70 yard dash for a touchdown. J. Stalgaitis, Trella, Moissey and A. Stalgaitis made the remaining touchdowns for McAdoo. The brother against brother rift, Vince vs. Sammy was re- newed on Armistice Day at Cran- berry, where Hazle Township lost to McAdoo 32-12. The team clinched the Mountain Top League championship for Mc- Adoo. Postupack playing a con- sistently good game, scored two touchdowns and aided Sashko, Tomashefsky and Stalgaitis in carrying over the others. Snow did not hinder the Mc- iAdoo eleven in overcoming scrap- py Girardville's team 19-0. Perry blocked a punt, Butranavage fell upon the ball behind the goal line for the first score. Later in the game Postupack scored twice. For eleven Seniors, it was the last game under their school's colors. Diligent coaching by the ever popular Mr. Thomas S. Boyle coupled with fine spirit on the part of players and managers, added up to a most successful season. The team and coach were feted at a banquet and awards were given in the school gym- nasium at which the principal speaker was Joseph Boland, Assist- ant Football Coach at Notre Dame University. The business of the Athletic Office was handled most capably by Mr. Alvin A. Sabulsky, a member of the faculty. The Ath- letic Board, which consisted of Condy E. Givens, Mr. John Bru- ley, and Mr. J. McGeehan directed the athletic program of the school. The following is a tentative schedule for the coming season 1938. Sept. 17-Hazleton ............ Away Sept. 23-W.

BASKETBALL A winning basketball team carried McAdoo High Sehool's colors to a league championship and into the semi-final game of the district elimination tourney. The record for the season was I5 games won and 7 lost. Only two games were lost by lllifsi our boys in league competition, the remaining five to independent teams. Mahanoy Town- ship was the one team able to defeat them twice and Northampton turned the trick that spragged them in their quest for the state Championship. 5' Fai .2 , ,ffl 1 I ' , ,mo , fb,-if-E-, A o , V. i-haf? r i Q 1- Jil' . A ',, . Ax ,h I -SHI., The season started poorly for the McAdoo quintet when they lost the first three games succes- sively to Mahanoy City, Mahanoy Township, and St. Gabriel's. Their first victim was M. 86 M. I., and after the furious West Hazleton game which was also lost, the team hit a winning stride. Eight games in a row were taken from Fair- view, St. Gabriel's, White Haven. East Mauch Chunk, Weatherly, Hazle Township, Delano, and Fairview again, before White Haven was able to edge them out 15 to 14. McAdoo held White Haven to a single field goal but lost out on fouls. Through the rest of the league schedule, the going was easy. In the crucial game for the league lead, McAdoo displayed its power against Hazle Township by winning a fast game 38-27 before a capacity crowd in the new Township gymnasium. Eliminating, Barrett Township and Rock Glen at the Hazleton High School gym, the team trav- elled to Allentown and lost to Northampton in the semi-final game. The following is the record of the team.

Let us point out the highlights and trace our progress through this period. Entering high school was an impressive experience, it marked a change from childhood to youth. In the transition new companions made new friends, new studies brought new interests. Athletics and organized activities were fun and added an incentive for at- tending school. The teachers made life pleasant or boresome as we studied through the curriculum. We were investigating all fields of nature and human relationship. The study of English helped us become more expressive and pre- cise in the use of our own lan- guage. Civics, History, and Prob- lems of Democracy gave us a broad outlook upon our social structure. Mathematics and Sci- ence provided us with a better understanding of nature. Foreign languages added an appreciation of other lands. Our philosophy and ideals, We assimilated from our parents, teachers and elders. All this contributed toward moulding our education which, though far from complete, how- ever, is basic. For four years we applied our- selves to school with various de- grees of activity and interest. Now diplomas are ready for those who earned them by time and ef- fort spent in study. For many of us graduation will mark the end of dependence up- on our parents and society. Up to now we have led a sheltered and guided life. We are ready and fit- ted, We hope, for the serious and useful work of the world. It means further striving for the marks we have set as our position in life. What can we expect? Things are not as they are desired. Social, physical and economic conditions are in a constant state of change. Competition is ruthless, only the best attain their goals. This pre- sents a bewildering problem which can only be overcome by courage, perseverance and knowledge. We are confident that our High School education will help make the struggle easier. TD 670133 MJFQDIIZDKIQ-PCCy QQ., 'WZ + ffff CLASS PROPHECY To predict exactly what this complicated world will bring to our class in the future, is impos- sible. It would be interesting to conjecture what success each in- dividual might attain and we could venture to predict it with some accuracy. Yet that is not our purpose in this small space of a page. Let us consider the class only as a group. If we use good judgment, we can make a shrewd guess as to the general course of events to be expected. It is certain that with gradua- tion the class will no longer have the same common aims and ideals to hold it together. Nor will it have as much opportunity to meet. Its members will drift into varied Heldsg industry, business. finance, farming, higher education and the professions will claim them. Whatever is their position or whatever is their work, they will find it easier to adjust them- selves and Ht in, because of the 1 S 1 fundamental training in their education. The predictions of imaginative writers about a fantastic world of the future need hold no fears for them. Useful citizenship through servicewill be available to all. Many will become respect- ed leaders in their community. Some will be prosperous and per- haps even wealthy. Marriage and family responsibilities are in- evitable. However divergent are the paths they may travel or how unlike are their modes of life, they will still have a common link to bind them to the past four happy years in high school. Reunions will undoubtedly oc- cur and whimsical reminiscences mellowed by time will be made. It is one of our fondest hopes that in their Reverie, the members of our class may find many happy hours of memories. V MSS milf!

DEFINITIONS A coolie is a movie with air-condi- tioningf' A tangerine is a kind of one-sided banjo without a handle or strings, and with loose washers all around it that rattle when shaken. Countersigns are cards used in gro- cery stores to tell the price of eggs, and so on. Vermicelli is a section of big fiddles in a symphony orchestra that are played between the knees. Countersunk is the way you feel when you see a counter full of candy and have only a penny. . Contraband is a bunch of hill-billys with mouth-organs and fiddlesf' Gargoyle a mouth wash. Languish, a nation's speech. Furnish, what's kept in the cellar. Chalice, envious. WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY IF. . . Marie would Lose Fast instead of Win- slow. Anna would Sway instead of Reale. Angelo would Heal instead of Payne. Rita would Skip instead of Jump. Grace were a Tiny Groom not a McBride john were a Dairy not a Brewery. Kathleen were a Hunter not a Fisher. Marvin were a Beggar, not a Baron. Joseph were an Apple, not-a Payer. Frank were a Knife, not a Forke. Joseph were a Parlor, not a Kitchin. Albert were a Doctor, not a Parson Mary were a Teacher, not a Student. William were an Elder, not a Minor. William were a Maid, not a Butler. Toney were a Taffy, instead of a Fudge. Eugene were Cigars instead of Matyas.

Four years have passed in which we strived for a forrnalieducation. In the same period we have been moulding our characters and learning the lessons of associating with people. Now we must break these ties, stop being pampered, pro- tected and guided at every step. It is so ordered that we proceed on our own responsibility. Industries, marts, colleges, trade and other vocations are ready to absorb us. It is with ourselves to make our path. We feel obligations to those who have made our education possible. Giving our parents reason to be proud of our achievements can repay them, but upright character and fine youth will give them still greater satisfaction. Our obligations to society can be fulfilled by serving the community, state, and nation in every possible way, to do our part in improving them, help solve their problems, to make them a better and happier place in which to live. To ourselves we are obligated to become useful citizens of high ideals and noble character. We must not fail to pause, in passing, to wish next year,s Senior class a fine and enjoyable year. In our memories we will always have a warm spot for those with whom we have studied, worked and played in our high school days. It is with mingled regrets and with fond wishes for success do We tender our farewell. Gone is not forgotten. It is our hope that from time to time the record in these pages will revive a reverie of four years of happiness.
