Junior-Senior Banquet The Junior-Senior banquet of Mt. Cory High School was held May 15, 1936 in the high school auditorium. Beautiful scenery in keeping with spring was carried out in the manner of a garden party. Trellises decorated the outside walls of the garden. Rock gardens, bird baths, lawn chairs, swings, hammocks, gold fish, canaries, trees, bushes, and wild flowers were placed in a realistic way. Flag stone walks led to the card tables which had beautiful ,umbrellas placed above them. Wild flowers centered the tables. Vine-covered gates and rose arbors made the garden look very beautiful. Programs, placecards, and favors which were used, represented flowers. The menu also carried out the idea of spring. Members of the sophomore class served willingly. They were dressed in a very appropriate way. The girls wore lovely semi-formal gowns which added much attraction to the evening. The program included novelty numbers given by various entertainers. -Maedonna Stout JUNIOR PLAY Putting On Airs Doctor Thomas Marvin-An unsuccessful physician - James Griffith James Ralston-Retired keeper of a candy shop - Edwin Inbody Frederick Ralston-His son ----- - Nathan Geren Cora Ralston-Ralston's wife ----- - Ruth Bowersox Uncle Robert Ralston-Ralston's brother, a junk dealer - Raymond D.

Meet The Champs On September 1, 1935, a group of boys composed of some of last year's team and several freshmen gathered together to try and produce as good a team, or better, than the 1934 eleven. After a few weeks practice it began to look like we were going to have a pretty good team, and we decided that we were not going to share this year's championship with anyone. After a few successful games we raised our goal and determined to keep our opponents scoreless, but this was unsuccessful. Everything looked fine for us until the Mt. Blanchard game when we had a little bad luck and were defeated. Then we decided that all we had to do was to defeat the rest of our opponents and the cup was ours. With this in mind every player did his very best and we were on the top at the end of our season of scheduled games. It was the cooperation and the teamwork of the boys and the coach which won the championship for Mt. Cory. By winning the cup this year, Mt. Cory has concluded a remarkable two-year record through the untiring efforts of our coach, Robert Hutton. The Senior lettermen that we lose this year are: Kenneth Bowersox, Willis King, Aulton Wagner, Eldon Schafer, Bob McVey, Irvin Fisher, Richard Coleman, and Lewis Dukes. Kenneth Bowersox and Willis King were co-captains of the MECHANICSBURG Mt. Cory opened their football season by giving the boys a special treat in taking them to Mechanicsburg. This game was announced play by play through a public address system, this was also somethingunusual for our team. We played football team this year. our best brand of football and was in their territory stopped by their strong line. This game was a real test of both defensive and offensive play and it seemed that both teams were evenly matched, which was proven by a score' of 0-0. VAN BUREN Mt. Cory opened the conference by going to Van Buren who was rated as a good team. 'Cory had a fairly easy time getting the ball within the 20-yard line but when it came to scoring that was a different thing. We finally got a touch- down in the second period on a pass from King to Bowersox. During the last half of the game we were well into Van Buren's territory and once they were compelled to step out of the end zone while punting, therefore, giving us a safety. This made the score 8 to 0. This victory gave us our start in the county league. LIBERTY Mt. Cory played their first home game on their new foot- ball field against one of their old rivals. It was a very wet and disagreeable day and hindered our passing attack. In the early part of the game Liberty recovered a fumble deep in our territory and converted it into a touchdown. This put the old fighting spirit in 'Cory and we had the advantage the rest of the game. We turned the game into a 36 to 6 victory and we were tied for first place in the Little Nine . RAWSON Mt. Cory was up against one of her old rivals when Rawson came to play us. We were feeling pretty sure of several times, but were always ROBERT HUTTON, CO!!-Ch. Thirty-tlrrev
