HE score is complete at last, written in four parts, having, we hope, some harmony. Wl1at music there will come of it we cannot say. We suspect that there may he, here and there, ti false note. Our comments rmzy he too sharp -or too flat. Offering it now to the retul- ers-the real nuisiciarls-we hope that they will find it worth the playing. . . , The Eclitors Forward March I Theme. . U USIC is the zmwersal language and because it is so all--perfuading we hafue chosen it as the basic rhythm aroimd which we might weave the song' of our four years in H igh School.

In Your Own Quiet Way Josephine is a very shy reserved tfor someonej girl. She is studious and serious. She has a Winsome smile and a pleasing laugh. She expects to be a woman in white. Pheeny is very determined al- though her looks may belie the state- me-nt. She does not travel with a gang but proves herself to be a one woman woman by her friendship with Reiva. Lottie F.

You've Gotta S-m -i-I-e Here we have a jovial Miss who is always ready to start the day with a laugh.

Thanks a Lot Concetta is one of the outstanding girls in the Senior Class. She has proved herself a capable actress in the annual play. She excels in her classes but she is not a drudge. She has a winning smile and a pleasing personality. She belongs to a gang that remains apart from the school by taking for their :position a nook by the candy store. Does that account for your sweetness Concetta? If your Junior Etiquette is lost consult Concetta for she is very court- eous. thirty w Lottie Ban ey Class Olficer C15g Student Council C15 C25g Band C15 C25g Glee Club C455 Bas- ketball C15 C25 C355 White and Blue C25 C35 C453 Eleusinia Staff C455 Usher Cap- tain C45g Home Room Program C15 C35 C453 Biology Club President C253 Girl Reserves Secretary C255 Girl Reserves Vice President C355 Girl Reserves Pres- ident C455 Annual Play C459 Home Room Organization C15 C25. Follow The Gleam' Lottie's rys of enthusiasm are spread over so many fields that she is some- times mistaken for a prism. Lithe and lively, her Martha Raye imitations and baby talk have been a source of infinite delight to an ever present circle of friends. Her presence at school func- tions is always a forgone conclusion as is the presence of her name on the hon- or roll. Her pet hobby is worrying, both for herself and others.

Oh Danny Boy Although strong, Dan is not one of the silent men. Having proved his met- tle as a foe on the football field he does not rest on his laurels but strives for scholarship in school. He is always prepared for an argu- ment and even gives you your choice of the question. As handy-man around the stage he manages to be both valuable and modest -a winning combination of qualities.

All conversation with Bob eventually turns to this pet subject of his and many a tale of his numerous adventures have delighted us in Rhetorical periods. He also possesses a good disposition and a cheery smile, making him well- liked by his associates. He is an ardent supporter of all school activities and his willingness to cooperate brands him as a good worker. thirty-one Eugene P. Bcttinger Bon Bolt Eugene is the strong, silent type. He seldom says anything, but when he docs, it is usually worth your while to lend an ear. 'CBen seldom misses any school function, be it sport or social and is therefore very well known.

Occasionally we are greatly surprised when Butch decides to change from the role of the studious and join us in many of the more foolish pranks. Then rest assured his ringing peals of laugh- ter aid considerably in fun-making. We are certain that Eiarl does not mind our polite jesting for seeing he can take it now, only indicates that he will be able to meet life's battles with a staunch and everlasting courage.

Sophisticated Lady Anna is very capable and efficient. She's discreet and determined-a good friend to have if you want to know somebody worthwhile. She wants to be a nurse and we sincerely hope she realizes her am- bition. Anna likes green, bulldogs and mo- vies-she sings second soprano and puns a lot-swims all summer, sets hair all Winter. She travels an in- dependent road but not a lonely one. thirty-three Nellie F. B1tTf7i1y Glee Club 115 125 135 1453 Eleu- sinia Staff 145g Usher 1455 Home Room Program 115 135 1455 Annual Play 145.

No class is complete for John without a good argument, and he certainly has provided us with many. Out on the eridiron, he has dis- played his fightinq spiritg he was captain on the 37 team. His par- ticipation in sports did not prevent him from doing well in his studies. John has also been one of Mr. Say- loris best stage hands and performed his chores with vim and reliability, Violet R. Caputo Glee Club 125 C35 1455 Operetta f25 C35 Q45g Annual Play 125. Was there ever a Pal like You? Violet is always doing her shorthand, showing us that she is a hard worker. She is a sincere friend and is always willing to help anyone. She has a winning smile which makes one confide in her. Violet has artistic ability, having taken part in many school programs. She is one of the many loyal sup- porters of her school, having attended all football games. Lorraine M.

She has a cheerful disposition and an all-around school spirit. Lorraine is especially interested in the commercial field. Is it stenographic work, Lorraine? She has a fine speaking voice, which we believe, accounts for the talking she does. Lorraine has been one of the many boosters of M. H. S. thirty-five August Dennick John Dircnzo Farmer In The Dell HNOW the Day is 0ver,, Augie is a member of the famed Middle Street Pro's', one of the town's leading Athletic Associations. His love for sports brings him to all M. H. S. encounters as well as leading him to gain such knowledge of sports in general that he possesses. Carefree is the word for him. He is never seen worrying over school work. In argument he seems to have master- ed the first principle-fair play. thirty-six Though short in stature John has ac- complished some big things. John gets ta kick out of Working, Qfol his school we meanj. We always find John on the decorat- ing committee of any social function VVher1 the decorating is complete, he is ready for another j-ob, which is ticket collecting. Then, too, John is always ready to smile, and take life as it comes. Never worry and always do your share is his motto. John I. Deresccwage Hail, Hail, the Gang's All here Here we have the puzzle of our class, the great talker and hand-waver. fMaybe we mean head-waverj. We think John lmows a sign lan- guage. Whenever he recites, he ends by waving his hands in all directions and saying, You know what I mean. Sometimes we do and sometimes we don't, John. He plays pranks on his many friends, but they always forgive him and wel- come him back. William F. Dolzani Billy Boy If, in scanning a magazine in yearsto come, you see a cartoon signed, Dol- zani don't be surprised, because draw- ing is Weazer's avocation. He is an invariable occupant of the community Ford which claims P nn Street as its home. He has taken to social affairs lately and is quite a dancer.

Sunshine and Happiness Lennie occupies the hearts of many of the fair sex. He walks to school in the morning with a lass on his arm and a smile on his face. He is one of our Iron Men. Sports and studies are shared equally by this young man. He is always ready to make new flriends, and holds fast to the ones he as. We sum him up as a Fine fellow. thirty-eight John P.

Sweet and Low Nancy is one of thow persons who possesses a great capacity for silence. This trait is no indication of lack of mentalityg on the contrary Nancy man- ages to take home a very creditable re- port card. She intends to be either a librarian or an auditor. Nancy is sure to succeed in either for she has the temperament of the former and the in- tellect of the latter.

Where's Elmer? Diz,' is a musician of considerable note. He plays the saxaphone in the band and the clarinet in the orchestra.

She voices her opinion about everything not caring who opposes her as long as she believes she is right. Perhaps there is a reason for her self- confidence. It would be a great surprise for us to see her if she were not chewing gum. We also have her number or shall we say her gir1friend's number? It's a Dodgwand usually drives them around town with several friends. An engaging pastime! Sylvia B.

Who is Sylvia And sparkling eyes of deeply mir- rored pools -we apply these words to mischievous but capable 'tZubie. We are dubious as to the reasons for her desiring to become a dental hygienist. It seems as though her frequent complaints of toothaches in- dicates more than a casual interest in teeth. She usually accompanies the other two musketeers and helps form the well-known Jewish triangle. sixty-nine Seventy Dorothy M.

She's the kind of person to be with when you want to talk to somebody interesting. Not inclined toward social things, never-the-less, she feels at home in a group. Her name may be among the last on the class roll but it is one of the first as far as scholarship goes. Baccalaureate Exercises + Sunday, June 13th, 1937 + Sermon by Rev. R. E.

Soon, after our vacation was over, we were back at our hooks. For a while we all studied industriously hut the novelty ot' the new subjects soon wo1'e ott' and the minds of some students turned to sports. As it was the football season sport occupied tl1e spare time of the male sex. Close on the heels ot' toothall came lraskethall. The Junior class showed up in both the Varsity', and the Jayvees. Although we came out in the lower half ot' the standing, the JV,s only winning one game the outlook for the team next year is the brightest. Soon the minds of the studends turned to study. ln English Mr. Murphy found quite a selection ot' authors, prospeetive poets, play- wrights, and novelists. Often after classes are dismissed you can find several students delving into the mysteries ol' physics. Vtlhenever you see a group there you can he sure that their work had been unsatisfactory and lVlr. Brady deemed it necessary to retain the class after hours. The thing that all Juniors look forward to is the Prom, and this year,s Prom was well up to standard. There were the usual proceedings and ditliculties which the committees handled com- petently. Soon the time will come when we will be no longer Juniors but Seniors, so until that time when you will sec our pictures in the yearbook, VVC arc signing oft?- The Juniors.. . . xt if n v-4-ight I3mss,' S o p h o m o r e s Sophomore Girls 'I' PRESIDENT. ........ . . .Louis Drummeter VICE PRESIDENT. . . . . .William D1'oskin:.s TREASURER ....... ....

Zu':u Mivhzu-l Sninslci via4l1'y-lim Freshman Class History By Gloria Rothermel 'I' Day of days: September 8, 1936, we at last were Freshmen! What a glorious feeling, to be a member of the High School, but alas, very terrifying too. Suppose I get lost? Where's Room 18? How do you get to the Library? Those were some of the seemingly unanswerable questions that raced through our perplexed young minds. Finally we discovered the Library, our home and class rooms and con- sidered oursilves exceedingly lucky to find such grand teachers in them. Days filled with hurrying lines of us greenies flew quickly into examinations. With great anxiety the results were awaited Report Cards came with horrors and joys, much to the relief of some and discomfort of others. After a time, under the guiding influence of our respective teachers, we be- came detinite part of the High School, its routine and activities. We began to realize that we wire no longer small unimportant individuals. We became an es- sential cog in the machinery of the High School. As we gazed at the White and Blue Banner-emblim of courage and truth-we no longer needed our little blue Student's Handbook , we knew the sacred School Song. And so we shall go through life, singing the praise of the Blue and White, know- ing that it was here wc got our start on the rocky road of life. eighty-six d '4MiA'L'Ll Voiccs' Organizations The Minersville Chapter The National Society of Secondary Schools Mincrsville High School was granted a charter to the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools in 1922.

Each member has the opportunity to introduce any new ideas that he thinks may be beneficial to the students. Members also sound the feeling of the pupils in their rooms in regard to the activities ot' the school and report at the meeting. This year the Council took charge of the ticket sales for the Annual Play, Oper- etta and the Night Lyceum number. These events proved successes because the members rcally took an interest and Worked hard. The Officers of the Council are: President .................... . ........... ' ........

Its doors are never barred but always open to all girls, regardless of nation- ality or scholastic standing, and it urges them to go t'Marching Along Togetherf' It also aids them in finding their hidden talents in order to help along their fu- ture. The new members usually are All At Sea about this club but soon they feel at Home and enter into the swing'l of all activities. The 'tmeasuresn of time alloted to the school term are always chuck full with Girl Reserve programs, parties, treasure hunts and camping trips. The monthly meetings are ably conducted under the supervision of Miss Lord and Miss McGurl. Their meetings being both entertaining and instructive, prove that the girls have the true spirit and live up to the Girl Rese-We Code. The following diligent and spirited otiiicers were elected: President .............................. . .....,.. LOTTIE BANEY Vice President .... .... . ..ANNA BRENNAN Secretary ........ ....

These girls sincerely hope their com- rades will add to the glory, and prestige the Minersville Girl Reserves have so far attained. ninety USHERS By Anna Brennan Here is your program, Madam. No Madam we do not collect tickets here, you will give them to the ticket collector at the door. No, I don't know if Mrs. Brown came in the auditorium yet, but if you will please wait here I will try to find her and to secure a vacant seat near her for you. Yes Madam, Mrs. Brown is sitting in the eighth row fourth seat. I will direct you to her. Did you say you did not receive a program? I am sorry here is one for you. Yes, this is the way to the balcony. Go straight ahead to the end of the corridor, there an usher will direct you to the balcony. Did you say you would like to have four seats in the front rows? If you will come with me I will try to find them for you. The time now is about two minutes of eight. You can see the ushers closing the doors of the auditorium. With this, their duties are almost completed for the evening. The ushers have been an organization in Minersville High School ever since our new auditorium has been completed. Each year a new group of Senior Girls are selected to carry on the duties of ushers of the coming year. ninety-one FRENCH CLUB By Elaine Kmsno French is known to be one of the most beautiful of languages. Music, Literature, Art all contain a part of the French tongue. Therefore, how important it is that we should have some knowledge of the subject! Here is where our club plays such an important roll. We have become thoroughly acquainted with the French people-their customs, social, economfc und political problems. The Petit Journal, a paper entirely in French, is of great interest to the club. The members of the club are determined not only to understand the French tongue, but also to be able to speak it Huently. Therefore the stu- dents carry on French conversations. Interesting French stories and plays are also given to the students and after they have completed reading them, they give their version of them in English. After taking our course in French, without doubt we have each become a Maitre de Francais. ninety-two STAGE HANDS By Daniel Bcnclolcas This year, as in other years, the stage was under the supervision of Mr. Saylor. Two Seniors, Daniel Bendokas and John Buzas and two Juniors, Earl Simmons and William Plunkett assisted in putting up the sets. Sets, lighting, and props for the annual play, the operetta, homeroom prmgrams and lyceums were taken care of by these efficient and capable boys. Painting and designing of new stage flats or props was done by Mr. Dietz assisted by John Direnzo. Mr. Murphy had charge of the makeup for homeroom or special pro- grams and the annual productions, the play and operetta, The stage managers had a heavy schedule this year due to the un- usually large number of lyceum programs. Cooperation of all the teachers made possible a very successful year, ninety-tlurt-e THE BIOLOGY CLUB By Elaine Kmsno The Biology Club has become traditional and is organized for aworthy purpose. It encourages students of the subject to become more familiar with their natural surroundings. This yeur the Club initiated the new mieroprojector. The Club luis made many a boy and girl KLN2ltL1l'6-IY1ll1d6d.7, The en- joyable hikes through the woods aequaints the students with Nature's uc- couterincnts. Much interest is aroused in the collecting and identifying of wild flowers, reptiles crustaceans. This collecting and identifying gives the students a broader conception and knowledge of the everyday living things about them. With all these accomplishments we hope that future Biology Clubs shall continue to be successful nature-seekers. Officers for the vezir: President ......... ............ . .............

This year Miss Berger has selected for her assistants the following people: WILLIAM MITCHELL SYLVIA ZUBROFF MARIAN PHILIPS JULIA PHILIPS MILDRED DAVIS Our duties in the library are many. We see that books are kept in their right places, and put in their proper orderg we keep a slip of paper in the library for the purpose of recording the name of the person and the book they have taken out, When books are brought back we check their return. It is necessary that we do this because it is the only immediate way we have of knowing whether or not books have been returned. To assist you is our pleasure. Him-ty-live PUBLICITY DEPARTMENT By Robert E, Wein1cr,'Q58 Under the guidance of Mr. Thomas C. Condron Jr., this years Publicity Department has surpassed, in eliiciency, the departments of other years. The Department was organized primarily for the purpose of making known to the public and to the students the events that were to take place. After hours of hard work the members have fulfilled their requirements. The Publicity Department is divided into two groups. In the one group are the persons who write for local newspapers. In the other are those who print and deliver signsg and take care of other general types of publicity. This years' Department is Composed cl' ten members. They are: .JOE MURPHY ROBERT HUGHES THOMAS FEENEY JOHN DIRENZO ROBERT WEIMER JEROME GLASS JOHN CURRAN ROBERT QUINN HOWARD SLIDER EARL BRACEY ninety-six WHITE AND BLUE BY By Lottie Buncy Our school paper this year was called the 'tWhite and Blue. The paper was published every month and the staff had regular meetings. Under the direction of Joseph Murphy and the supervision of Miss Weimer the paper had a very active and successful year. Most of the home rooms had a one hundred per cent subscription list. Every month, the night before the paper was to be published, the Free Press omce was over-run with ambitious and frenzied High School type- setters. This year the paper bears the seal of the P. S. P. A. CPennsylvania Student Press Associationj Through this organization we entered it into a statewide contest. We didn't wfn anything but the experience. Due to the editor's tireless efforts the paper was Worthwhile. Next year's staff will have a good paper to live up to.

From 1922 M. H. S. has always had a Glee Club. It had comparatively few members but it set a new mark of merit for our school. Then in 1929 with the arrival of Miss Glant, the Music Supervisor, the club took the title Eurdyclice. Two years clapse and the club, in 1931, is divided because of its continual growth in membership. The Seniors and Juniors retained the name Eurdydice, and thc Freshmen and Sophomore girls became the G. Cleft Glee Club. The girls have been notable participants in the annual operettas. The Freshmen, Sophomore and Junior club members form the choir at Baccal- aureate. Among the other functions of the clubs are singing for special pro- grams, debates, and participating in Music Week. The Senior girls departing from this organization hope that with the unceasing effort of Miss Glant and the cooperation of all, the clubs will at- tain new heights. hundreil THE BAND By Thelma Rotlmclcer The Minersville School Band has proven itself an asset both in school and civic affairs. During the past year our band has paraded in every civic function and from many congratulatory remarks, Minersville looks with pride on the organization. Much credit is due to our leader, Mr. Anthony Tremitiere, who has taught us punctuality, obedience, and cooperation, as well as supervising us in music. Rehearsal periods are held during the summer, also during the regular school months, and practices are well attended. It not only provides hours of musical instruction but hours of enjoyment and recreation. This year we acquired flag bearers and two new flags for marching display and, who knows, we may get a banner. What is a May Day, a patriotic parade, a basketball or football game, without the band! Those of us who are graduating this year leave with the other members our best wishes and hope that the night games will not be too cold! liumlrorl om- E-UGLE AND DRUM CORPS By Mary lvlower, '37 Not only is t.his activity justified lcy the aims of music education, but it is also strictly in accord with the general aims of all education. Il's very simplicity and lack of heavy demands on individual players as regards home practice makes it an aid to all children participating in music ensemble work. Those who would not, or could not expend the required amount of time and money to play a band instrument, but are anxious to do some of this type of work, will find the Drum and Bugle Corps a truly remarkable ex- perience and source of satsfaction and joy. It may be the means by which a greater number of children will become interested in music to the ex- tent that they will study some band or orchestra instrument seriously. Our Drum and Bugle Corp was started In 1933 with about sixty boys of the 4th, 5th and 6th grades the same in number this year. Many of our school band members at the present time are graduates of this Drum and Bugle Corps. humlrcil two ORCHESTRA By Mary Shin1cuuzgc,'57 Entering the Fifth year of our organizafon, we find the orchestra ap- proathing its goal-ability to render compositions beyond the usual. We arc now playing a high grade of Classical music which is far advanced for any school organization. As the weekly practices are speeding by, we also speed along in improvement. Due to the various activities of the school, we have found it a difficult task to present ourselves as a single unit, as we have always been unitfd with various operatic and dramatic performances. Our membership in the past year has increased greatly and under thc direct leadcrshfp of Mr. Anthony Tremitiere Olll' newcomers are ready for their debut. Toward Better Things in Music is the theme piece of the lVIinci'svilIt- Hfgh School Orchestra. llilluli'---I-ll11'4-v Contest Participation 'I' By Joseph Murphy + For the first time in many years, Mincrsville High School was repre- sented in the Pennsylvania Forensic and Music League's musical contest. The contest was held in Pottsville on March 19th with four instrumental soloists representing M. H. S. It was at first expected that the band would enter the contest but a series of adverse developments prevented it. A delay in receiving the cofnf- test music and a last m'nute change of date combined to block the bandis entry. As a result only four soloists represented the school. They were: Joseph Farrell .... .... T rumpet Jerome Glass ..... .... S axaphone Elmer Evans .,.. ..... C larinet John Direnzo ..... ..... B ass At the time this article was written, the contest had not yet taken place so nothing is known as to how they place in their respective divisions but judging by past performance in which they distinguished themselves without ' ' h l. rating, we can be sure that they brought honoi to the sc oo This year the school orchestra and band as separate units gave a com- bined concert on the night of April 6th the purposes of which were to raise funds for the purchase of new uniforms and to inform the public of the progress of the band. The program included classical and popular music and was enthusiastically received by a large audience. It is expected that this concert will be made a regular evening feature of the school year. The musical life of the high school broadens year by year and their latest entries into competition probably forecast a more abundant life for the high school's musical units. li u nd:-ed four UPCTCIlXSff77l Afhlefics ga A Stone Wall On The Defense By Charles Smncl1ick,'37 The Battling Miners of '36 were a powerful aggregation. Though out- weighed in many of their conflicts, their inimitable fighting spirit pre- vailed and as a result brought home many laurels. The team with the ex- ception of a few lineman, was unusually light. This deficiency in weight was overshadowed by their superior alertness and by their speed. The team had a long grueling schedule to fulfill. Twelve of the strongest teams in the region were placed before the Minersville boys to conquer. They were suc- cessful in seven of these conflicts and dissappointed in only five. Though having only several weeks practice, Minersville High opened their season the week preceding the opening of school, With Porter Township as their guests. Considering that most of the material was green as yet, Miners- ville played very good lg-all and handed the Porter huskies a 26-0 setback. l Q l .

St. Clair visited our stadium the following week and swept our boys ofl' their feet in the opening moments of the game scoring 6 points early in the first quar- ter. It however, did not take the Miners long to gct started :md when the final whistle had blown Minersville had chalked up their second consecutive victory, 24-6. Minersville traveled to Shenandoah whfre they met the UB1uc Devils in their first Conference game of the current campaign, The White and Blue boys, outweighed and outplayed in every department, fought hard but in the second half,1ho fast-charging backs of the Shenandoans broke through the tiring Miners- ville line for consistent gains, compiling a score of 19 points to Minersville's noth- mg.

Lansford, another newcomer on our schedule, upset th.e dope of many of the Sports writers by spilling our second defeat. A blocked kick behind our own goal line proved the only tally of the entire game. The Battlin Miners failed to take advantage of several opportunities to score and were vanquished 6-0. The third consecutive defeat was at the hands of Mahanoy City. The Mar- audin' Miners, rating near the top in the conference were pushed about with ease in the Hrst half by our boys. Leading by a score of 7-0 at half time the K'Battlin' Minersl' fought desperately to maintain that lead. A slight drizzle prevailing during the first half turned into a shower during the third quarter and. ruined Minersville's aerial attack which had been working so successfully during the earlier part of the game. As a result Mahanoy City tied the score and after much bitter opposition scored the second time in the closing moments of the fourth quarter to win out 13-7. Traveling to Lebanon, Minersville won their first conference game from an inspired K'Cedar team. Although superior, our boys found it difficult to score and were just able to eke out a 7-6. + l Hip!

The Coalies, surprised and dazzled by power, fell before their betters by a score of 24-O. Frackville also fell before a powerful onslaught by the Miners. Highly favor- ed, they were completely baftled when, at the end of the game, the score stood 19-13 in favor of Minersville. The last three games of the season were played abroad, Mt. Carmel proved too strong and overpowered a weaker M. H. S. team 32-6. Nesquehoning, a breather before our big game with Ashland, was easily con- quered at Lansford-19-0. After securing a substantial lead the Elberti men coasted till the end of the game. On Thanksgiving Day at Ashland's Memorial Stadium, Minersville went to pieces and let the Black Diamonds do everything to them but eat them. The dis- astrous game ended with a 55-0 score.

Hedges and pine trees were planted on the terrace to pre- vent erosion and beautify the sur- roundings. It is planned this spring to plant grass seed on the playing field. The vision and planning of Mr. Roudabush who supervised both the building of the stadium and the re- cent improvcments is reflected in the stadium itself. It already compares favorably with the finest high school athletic field in the state. By Chcw'cs Sttznchick + The 1936 football season saw the Minersvillc High's stadium greatly improved with the help of federal funds. A permanent fence for the northern part of the field was built and painted and additional bleachers were erected. A large score board was put up at the southern end of the stadium and a new press box placed on the higher permanent bleachers over-looking the field. The landscape was also included in the remodeling. The low end of the stadium was filled and a stone wall to prevtnt sediment from being carried t ,t. , ,, y ' ' i 4 1 'M'H,S?i' . vlsn0R5 2 ' , , L: I ' A 1936 Improvement humlrt-al 4-lt-vt-n + Varsity Basketball + THE COACH THE MANAGER By Alva Meyers, '37 Minersville High School Basketecrs under a new mentor, Mr. Howard Schofstal, went through a mediocre season of basketball playing. When the call for candidates went out, about thirty-five boys reported. Coach Schof- stal had to make quick judgement in picking the Varsity, as there were only two weeks of practice before the first game. Their first game was a league game and they were beaten 31 to 25 by Mahanoy Township. From then on the team picked up in their playing and played inspired ball throughout the season. With seven wins and nine losses the team showed up well. taking in the teams inexperience and height ad- vantage other teams had on them. The team was composed mostly of underclassmen.

However the true value of having such a club was demonstrated when, under the new mentor, Mr. Dufly, several Hfindsn were brought to light namelyg Vvnzlauskas, Koehler, Droskinzls and Ritzel, These four we think will prove invaluable to next yea1 s varsity. This yea1 s squad did manage also to uphold the Junior Varsity's tradition for fighting tooth and nail and for thrilling the crowds with football-like antics. The initial year is always a dillicult one for any coach and this year Mr. Duffy had to meet some knotty problems. The real Worth of J. V. competition how- ever is slow to appear The experience gained and the training in team work do show up as extra points on future varsity scores. liunmlred i'UllI'iPL'll Baseball By Andrew Pleszlcoch Perhaps our greatest interest during the spring season is our baseball team, which always has had a reputation of being the liveliest, and fastest team in the Anthracite region. Because we have some veterans from last year and many two-letter men, we are all positive that under the leadership of Coach Elbierti, this team will fulfill the wishes of our fans by being scholastic champions. Two letter men include William Allen, outfielder, Alvin Mauer, our burly south paw, George Allen and Andrew Fleszkoch, infielders. Reserves from 1936-Leonard Domlesky, Thaddeus Jablonsky, and William George. Unfortunately, the number of players per team is limited by league rules, otherwise we would have had such men as Walter Klock. August Dennick, Nick Polansky, Russel Rothermel and Robert Lewis who have gained prominence in the Amerian Legion ranks. The teams who are included in this years schedule are Porter Township-- last year's champs, St. Clair-long noted for their good calibre teams, Branch Township, Tremont, Schuylkill Haven and Cressona. Track ancl Field By Howard Slider The prospects of a successful 1937 team were daunted by the graduation of the entire relay team and the weight tossers. Only three veterans remained from which a nucleus for a new team might be formed. Stanchick, Slider, and Bendokas survived to fill the shoes of their worthy predecessors. These boys were assisted by George Allen, William Allen, Laelas, Pas- que, and Starr whose talents in running have yet to be developed but from whom we expect a great deal this year. Our season opened with the traditional Penn Relays held in Philadelphia on April 24. Once again Minersville showed up well at these Relays. On May 1, the team traveled to Coaldale, where a number of the teams from the Anthracite Region competed. We were again invited, after a year's intervention, to attend the Girard- ville Dual Meet on May 8. May 15, saw the M. H. S. trackmen burning up the cinders at Mt. Carmel in the Mr. Carmel Invitation Meet. Our most important meet of the season was slated for May 22, in Pottsville. Here the District Eleven Meet was held. Teams from several counties were repre- sented here. Records were tied, broken, and greater ories established through-out the day at this meet. The annual Pottsville-Schuylkill Haven-Minersville Triangular Meet, will be run four days later at the Pottsville Stadium May 26. Again we wind up our season v'ery appropriately with the Pottsville Relay Carnival held on the night of Friday, May 28. The records: Last year Robert Fromme equaled the District Eleven record and also the H. S. record formerly held by Albert Adamovage of 10.1 in the hundred yard dast. Algert Gustitus also equaled Edward Kress' javelin throw of 124 feet. All other records remain intact. hundred tifteen Third Street Building Principal .... ....

In some, the student participates and in others he plays the part of the spectator. In fact every student has at least once during his high school life taken part in some sort of dramatics. The operetta absorbs a. great number of our dramatists. Everyone is encouraged to enter into this fi'ld because it needs many participants. The two important dramatic events occuring yearly in Minersvillc High School are: the Annual Play and the Operetta. The Operetta is a musical comedy, con- tributing as implied, music and humor with much color. The Annual Play pre- cedes, as a feature representing the serious side of our dramatics, this year a mystery play. The very first step in school dramatics is the presentation of assembly pro- grams. The pride and joy and often the doom of every Freshman is to star on this program. Their main purpose is striving to make them educational and en- joyable. The traditional custom is the presentation of four special programs by the four classmen. Thanksgiving-day program by the Juniors, Christmas pro- gram by the Seniors, Lincoln-Washington program by the Sophomores and the Memorial-day program by the Freshmen. The assembly programs offer us the opportunity of being both actor and audience. As for the Lyceum programs, we are wholly spectators. Only when one is called upon for the sake of a demonstration does one appear with the per- former. The programs chosen for us offer variety but are always educational. These programs are beneficial in extracting monotony from school life and yet affording us the opportunity to appreciate the better things in life. Care has been taken by our superiors that the programs themselves do not become monotonous. The subjects vary. To the end of promoting high school to a place where they really bring out the student's best and train his powers of appreciation we look forward to some day when we will have our own Little Theatre as well as our assembly stage. hundred nlmltr-en ll ff Double Door A PLAY IN 'l'Hlll4llC ACTS BY ELIZABETH Mc-FADDEN, Pr: pared Under the Direction of M12 Jerome Purcell, High School Auditorium Monday and Tuesday, February 8th and 9th CHARACTERS ilu mwlr-1' of Ihvir lx.llDf'ill'1llIL'l'J AYIGIIY ,... .,..,,... ....,.....,.,........ ,......
