Blank. The program was carried out in nautical terms and spring colors of pink and white predominated. On Thursday, 28. at 6:30 p m., the good ship “M unhall , left it moorings with all on board. The number of passengers this year exceeded the number of all other years. Among the distinguished first- class passengers were the Stone and Wherry families, who were ably represented, together with the entire school board and high school faculty. The Steward. Doc Miller, who acted as toastmaster, called the passengers to dinner and a very delicious menu was served. Mr. Stone, the president of the line, entertained the guests with an appropriate movie 'Pile Sea-Going Senior,” through the courtesy of the “Cunard Line. Mr. Toy, the Chief Engineer, stood at his post and steered the ship with an enjoyable speech. Following this number, the boat musician. Michael Timko, rendered a violin solo. The Steward announced the First and Second Mates. Kathryn Watson and Ray Rutter, who gave their “Grumblings”. Miss Guiney, H. Goehring, and Miss Adams, who acted as observing passengers and pilots, gave their views to passengers on board. Purser. Joe Guiney. Assistant Purser, John Hickey, and second Assistant Purser, Irene Busch, acted as donors and gave the let-termen, who were the honored guests, their well earned numerals in Football, Basket-ball, and Girls’ Basket-ball, respectively. More entertainment was followed by selections rendered by Saul Milton Goldman, and this was followed by a forecast by Alex Wallace, the lookout. Captain Wherry concluded the evening voyage with admonitions and off to uncharted seas sailed that good ship M unhall. “WHO KISSED BARBARA” The Dramatic Club successfully presented the play, Who Kissed Barbara,” in the school auditorium. Thursday evening, May 5th. The cast was well chosen and afforded the audience merriment and laughter throughout the play. The proceeds of the play went to help build up the Athletic Injury Fund. “THE MAID AND THE MIDDY” The Musical Department of the Munhall High Scool presented the operetta “The Maid and the Middy” on Friday evening, April 22, in the school auditorium. Miss Ferrell was director and had charge of the music, while Miss Nannah supervised the lines. Miss Adams ably coached the dances. The costumes, which were very elaborate, were made under the direction of Miss Lyle. The play in general was very humorous and the cast was well supported. Much credit is due to Margaret Natcher and the orchestra, who accompanied the cast throughout the course of the play.

8 THE MUNHISKO LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the members of the class of '27 of the Munhall High School, situated in the borough of Munhall, county of Allegheny, state of Pennsylvania, being of sound mind and having deemed that the classes of '28. '29, ’30 and '31 are worthy and deserving, do hereby, on this twenty-fifth day of May. in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, will and bequeath the following: I— To the class of '28 we will and bequeath: 1. The dignified title of “Senior . If. however, after one year the said class of '28 has proved worthy and loyal of this title, it shall then descend to the next class in line, the class of '29. 2. Rooms 17 and 18. together with everything of worthiness and importance that may he contained within. 3. The great privilege of occupying the front seats in assemblies. 4. The cherished hopes of our trip to Washington. D. C. II— To the class of '29 we give and bequeath: 1. Admission to the distinguished society, the “upper classmen. 2. Opportunities to take more active anticipation in the functions of the upper classmen. III— To the class of ’30 we give and bequeath: 1. Admission to the ranks of Soph- omores. 2. A most treasured possession— The Detention Room—on one condition, that is. that the aforementioned room be limited to upper class representatives. 3. The privilege of persecuting the incoming Freshman just as they themselves were persecuted. IV— To the class of ’31 we leave this advice: 1. Respect your elders and take all that is offered to you by the Sophomores, for every dog has his day. 2. Seek knowledge only in books and ask no questions of the upper class-men. for he that asks shall receive Wrong Information. V— To Mr. Walbert: Our love and esteem, and the difficult task of making good men and women of the incoming Seniors. VI— To Miss X'annah : Our hopes that she will have a better Senior class next year. VII— To Miss Guinev: Our incomplete resume and books full of zeros. VIII— To Mr. Hackett: Our hopes that his lab will be more complete, following the year of our departing. IX— To Miss Albright: Our wishes that the Ides of March bring about better Virgil students. Sealed, signed, and sworn to on this twenty-fifth day of May. in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven. Witnesses: Edward Markowitz, Margaret Lamont. P. S.—The class of '28 has the privilege of selling at auction, anything we have overlooked. CLASS PESSIMIST Isn't it the grand and glorious feeling to think that at last we have ended our four years of hard labor. We thought we were going to be through school at the end of four years and now they tell us that we are just commencing. Well, we are commencing—1 don’t know what but I hope it is something better than what we are quitting. Four long years of hard study and my mind is in a worse muddle than that of any Freshman. Ask any noble Senior to explain the Theorem of Pythagoras, and he will probably tell you it was a speech made by Washington at Gettysburg in 1492. I never saw such a school as this. We work from nine to four then the teachers give us so much night work that we have to sit up so late “burning the midnight oil (this is no banana oil, either) that we can't help being late the next morning, or going to sleep in classes. Then we get bawled for that. Ask Ed. Albrecht; he knows. Then this schoo'i has too many rules and regulations. You aren’t even allowed to chew gum. and the boys aren't even allowed to smoke! Xot allowed to stand in the halls. Not allowed to “hook classes. They give you a vacant period to study in. but they don't stop to consider that you might not be in the habit of studying. Then of course, it’s a crime to amuse yourself in some innocent manner, even if the others are foolish enough to look at you. Another thing, this school has too many steps. Joe Guinev says he wouldn't be late half as many times as he is if he didn't have to climb those front steps. For four long years 1 have tried to gain some weight, but I have come to the conclusion that I first must find a way to slide up those bannisters. Another thing, why do we need so many different studies? Go into Mr. Walbert’s history class and you will find those poor, overworked students gossiping about the inside affairs of Columbus or discussing the foolishness of wasting all that tea in Roston. In the English class and you will find them correcting the works of such men as Shakespeare and Webster. In Miss Austin’s biology class all the great butchers and doctors are trained and get their start. They also discuss why-girls like Florence Rydesky grow up like a tree, but Ethel Gribble and Dot Laird grow sidewards. Then Mr. Hackett teaches his class to talk in surprising ways such as H-O and H2S04. In the auditorium we learn to (Continued on page 11)
