Parent-Teacher Association purjxjse of organizing an association of this kind is: 1. To promote child welfare in the home, school, church and community; to raise the standards of home life; to secure more adequate laws for the care and protection of women and children. 2. To bring into closer relation the home and the school, that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the training of the child, and to develop between educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure for every child the highest advantages in physical, mental, moral and spiritual education. The Association originally consisted of but sixty-two parents and teachers, and it now has an enrollment of 220 memliers, which shows its splendid progress and the interest shown by the community. Meetings are held the second Tuesday of each month, and the yearly dues are twenty-five cents a member. To the many friends and citizens who have participated in making this organi- zation a success, we, the Association, wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation. —Mrs- Mary Hartzeu., Secretary. -4 17 - Th r 9 8 Comet Smile!

H. S. to begin their quest for the Holy Grail—Knowledge. These gallant Freshmen received a hearty welcome from the revengeful Sophomores who promptly initiated them by rolling down the boys’ socks, blacking their faces, etc. A month or two later, under the leadership of King Arthur (Mr. Wilson), these youthful knights were banded together as members of the Round Table. Miss Nicholas, a coun- cillor in the formidable castle, realized the possibilities of this valiant band and started the Civic League and worked with untiring patience. One of the tests of the Round Table which the knights had to undergo was “Clean Up Week.” Such scrubbing and erasing as these Knights did! Because we had not yet proved our valor in the activities of the Order, we were not allowed many social privileges. The point was stretched, however, when we, like vagabonds of the road, marched to Henry’s Dam and feasted on doggies. As the youngest mem- bers of the Round Table, we presented our school with the picture of “Sir Gala- had’’ and thus ended our Freshman quest. In the course of time these young Freshmen Knights became Sophomores, but the entire band did not continue the quest. Sixteen, tired of the hardships with which they had to contend, dropi ed by the wayside. The forty-three remain- ing knights, however, were allowed to indulge in a “spooky” and “hilarious” party on Hallowe’en in which the Faculty joined heartily- Our second year of Knighthood was enjoyed even more than the first. As the years | assed, the end toward which we were struggling drew nearer and nearer. Four new members were added to our band: Lahoma Peppell, Robert Peppell, Werner Marx and Miriam Boyer. This year, with our goal so close at hand, we worked harder than ever. Our first project was the serving of meals to the teachers during Institute Week. Will we ever forget those piles of dishes! The Knights took an active part in all activities, several of our meni- l ers were awarded honors for oratorical work and others were chosen as captains of the various athletic teams. The social event of the season was held May 13th, at which the Junior Knights entertained the Senior Knights and the Faculty. It was a “Rainbow Party.” and all decorations corresponded. After another year of hard work the Knights disbanded for the summer, to recuperate and come back with more vim and vigor for the last year of searching for the Holy Grail. This is the last year that we have to complete the quest for the Grail. It is the loginning of the end. Once again we had the privilege of adding three new memliers to our band: Justina Kilian. Mae Ziegenfus and Enid Minter. Because -« 1 43 }s— The Y Comet this is the last year we spend together, it is looked hack upon with fond memories. It is in this year that we have many good times. In October we had our last Hallowe’en Party at which we entertained the Faculty. In December we were entertained by the Junior Knights at a most lovely Christmas Party. Everyone voted the party a “Grand Success.” The day l efore Christmas vacation the annual Senior Christmas Party was given. Shall we ever forget the Senior Play given March 1st and 2nd? Our last and biggest event of all the year was the Wash- ington trip- It will never be forgotten by anyone. Thus these brave knights finished their training and ended their four-year quest for the Holy Grail—Knowledge. The years had flown swiftly by and now they must again cross a drawbridge into the world, each to follow his own chosen course. Before they disbanded, with one accord they proposed a toast. Holding aloft their goblets they drank deep and heartily— To the health and happiness of each Knight of the Class of 1928, and to Good Old N. H. S.! 44 } - The f 1928 Comet Class Prophecy j ji t was a dank, dreary sort of clay and I felt very discontented with myself and with life as I walked aimlessly back and forth on the main thoroughfare. I drifted into a side street. Here I was in this strange, big city, with no one I knew. A sign caught my eye. “Monsieur du Vaux, Reader in Futures.” Here was a place to pass the time. I entered a low door and was immediately arrested by the cry “Stop! Go no farther. I know why you have come. You are looking for friends. I gazed in the direction of the voice and perceived, in the dim light, sitting, or rather crouching, over a low table, a dark-skinned individual with piercing black eyes. With long, slim, brown fingers he motioned me to be seated. He was dressed in oriental silks and a high, fantastic turban. He closed his eyes and spread his hands over the large crystal in the center of the table- As I gazed intently at it, myriads of all-colored lights seemed to dance l efore my eyes. I started to speak, but was silenced by a gesture and a long, slim, dark finger pointed at the crystal. I studied the man’s features. He looked familiar. Could it be—could it be? Yes, it was! This was my old schoolmate Walter Kostcn- bader. I could hardly refrain from grasping his hand, but decided to say nothing. He was still making the strange passes and mechanically my eyes wandered to the crystal. “Gaze!” said he. I looked into the depths; at first all was chaos, but soon the parts began to assemble and finally there emerged a picture of a large stadium, and great throngs of people, all trying to stand in the same spot at once. On a banner were the words “The Olympic Games, Paris, France.” What could this have to do with my friends? Who was that gigantic man striding across the center? Upon close observation I perceived that it was my old friend, Rill Ilimlcr. Across his chest was a ribbon, “World’s champion pole vaulter.” By his side, trying to keep up with his strides, ran a diminutive young lady, who I could see was our former star basketball forward. Dotty Metz. I asked the man next to me what she was there for and he told me that she had just com- pleted her fourth swim across the English Channel and was now here for the Olympic Games. At one side of the field I saw a dense crowd. Being curious, I investigated and to my astonishment here were our fair-haired Margaret Getz and Wilbur von Steuben—engaged in a .plebeian prize fight, with the gloves on. Peggy had just placed a fine right uppercut to the left jaw. I uttered a cry of delight. At my ejaculation everything blurred and the scene faded from my sight- I had broken silence. The medium stretched his hand toward me and his magnetic eyes forced my gaze to rest again upon the crystal. The parts were assembling and upon my vision came a scene which at first I could not place, though it seemed familiar. Ah, it was our Assembly Hall, back at old N. H. S. Loving recollections rushed upon my memory, and I could scarce see the scene for the tears blinding my eyes. A stentorian voice caught my attention and I made an effort to ascertain -4 45 The 1928 Comet from whence it issued. “Students of Nazareth High School,” it was saying, “I am overjoyed at once more gazing on the classic walls and corridors of my old Alma Mater.” Dimly I could see a massive form on the platform. Why, it was Kenneth Griffith—who else? I restrained an impulse to rush up and “grasp his heroic hand.” But he was continuing—‘‘Fellow students, I have been all over this sphere, and can find no place more dear to me than this same building. Perhaps it would interest some of you to know that your old friend, Leonard Snyder, is now in New York, where he is pastor of one of that city’s leading churches. As you rememl er, he was ever our best arguer. and could convince even Miss Smith against her will when he so desired. And Werner Marx, another of our relig- iously inclined brethren, is situated as missionary in the Congo Region of Africa, where he is putting his life into converting the natives. Shall we give a rising vote to his success?” The whole Assembly rose as one man, and my heart swelled at this sign of loyalty to my classmate. Kenneth was again speaking—“From Africa I went to Turkey, where I visited the palace of the Sultan. I was ushered into the throne room and there, on a mound of cushions of silks and velvets, rolled in the richest of attire, lay the ‘champeen bluffer of our class”, Harold Simmons. I was overawed. He loftily welcomed me and offered me a seat, while he puffed tranquilly on a ‘hookah’ or pipe with a long tube attached. When had I ever known him not to smoke? When I had gathered a bit of courage. I asked him what he was doing here and he replied that he had a Mohammedan harem with 1001 wives, thereby defeating Solomon by one point. “Well, well”, thought I, “Our old Sociology lessons put into practice.” This was true education. “After a pleasant afternoon of eating sweetmeats, smoking ‘hookahs’ and watching the sultan’s dancers ‘salaam’ and twist and turn, I left the palace and the country. “Next I passed through Switzerland, and at one of the winter sports resorts I met Robert Peppell. He was there for the skiing. Bob is now the champion of the world in the sport and also the American representative in fancy ice-skating, which art he has developed quite proficiently. This fall I was in Berlin, at one of the famous Conservatories of Music, and was very much pleased to find Kathryn Lehr there as professor of Music Theory, with William Henry in the same ca- pacity. And then, from the sublime to the ridiculous, in the same city I went to the theatre, where I found our lovable Mae Ziegenfus as a jaunty little come- dienne. She was making antics of all sorts and turning cartwheels all over the stage. Kenneth attempted to illustrate, and the effect was so comical that I laughed aloud in glee. I was immediately repentant, for the scene in the crystal faded and I came back to earth once more. The medium looked at me sternly. A shudder ran up my back- “Go,” he said, “thou hast been disresj)ectful to the spirits and hast profaned my house. Go!” I towed my head, humiliated, and. laying down a bill without looking at it, walked slowly out. Now where to? I knew not. I was tired, hungry, and very lonely. As I attempted to cross the street, I was struck by a large lmousine. It stopped and an angry voice inquired why I didn’t watch where I was going. I re- -«$( 46 ►- The i 1928 f Comet tortcd and asked why he didn’t hire a competent chauffeur. The latter gave me an angry glance, which quickly turned to a smile as he grasped my hand. It was Henry Schlegel. While we were conversing, a crowd had gathered and then a policeman stepped up and asked for names. I gave him mine and pointed to the hack seat when he asked for the owner of the car. The angry voice again sjxjke and it said, “Why lx ther me with such trifles. Well, if you must know, I am Lester Kratz, President of the National City Bank.” I started—that name! Was it a mere coincidence? I looked and found it to l e really my old classmate, “I,ess”. I was a hit awed by his fine clothes, hut when he saw who I was, he dropped his supercilious manner and we renewed our friendship. I told the police- man to overlook the matter, that I would not prosecute. The chauffeur drove on and the policeman came up to me. “You let him off too easily”—he started to say, and then stood open-mouthed, staring at me. He grasped my hand and pumped it up and down excitedly- I recognized in his beaming countenance the ever-present genius of the Class of ’28, Gordon Plush! We talked awhile and then, realizing that we were holding up traffic, we went on our way. I asked him where the library was situated and he said that he would escort me there. As we walked up the wide path, with poplar trees on either side, a statue caught my eye. It was that of a soldier on horseback. What! It was the re- doubtable Harold Jones. I read on the Ikisc, “This statue is to commemorate that most valorous and brave Brigadier-General Harold Louis Jones, who did much to lead his country on to victory in our war with the Orient. I was overcome with indefinable feelings. Gordon led me into the building and the first two persons I saw were Gladys Jones and Evelyn, who assisted here in the capacity of librarians. After talking to them for a while, we went to the back of the library. I was looking over the shelves, when a bright blue liook caught my eye. “My Life and Memoirs,” by Enid Minter, it read. This ought to prove interesting, so I went to a table and liegan to read. My friend Gordon did the same, as he was off duty for the rest of the day. Soon my eyelids l egan to droop, as I was very tired from my day’s exertion. I dozed off—and dreamed that I was at Windsor Castle, Eng- land. where court was l eing held. I was standing in the side-lines, and I observed on the throne a very regal-looking lady, who, I presumed, was the Queen of Eng- land. Upon closer observation I found her to be Justina Kilian. I always knew she would come to something like this. As I looked at her, her austere visage broke into a smile- I looked around to find the cause for her merriment and ob- served, sitting on a stool at her feet, a young man in cap and hells—her jester, in whom I speedily recognized our laugh-provoker of old, I on Brong. At one side of the throne I noticed a martial-looking soldier who stood out from the rest by his military carriage. Who but Emanuel Gall? The Queen was shaking to a nobleman in rich attire. When he turned, I saw that it was Earl Audenried. From the time I first knew Earl, I had always pictured him as a nobleman, and it is said that thoughts and ideals are bound to sometime come out in one’s dreams. This I thought to myself—a dream within a dream. And with that, I awoke, to find myself back in the library and Gordon still reading. We walked out together, and as we sauntered down the street an electric sign caught my eye. “Senorita Paubla in the Matador.” We went in and sat down. On the stage was a beautiful Spanish girl dancing to the tune of her merrily click- -4 47 T?3 The 1928 Comet ing castanets. I recognized my school chum, Miriam Boyer. With her danced a Spanish Matador, who was undoubtedly another old friend, Harrison Hoch. How like a Spanish gentleman he looked in that costume! And his skin had been stained to match that of his partner. Soon the “Click-clickety-click” of the castanets died away and the curtain fell. After a while the curtain rose again and disclosed to view a single ballet dancer who lightly pranced hither and thither. Yes, it was Irene Hess. At the piano, furnishing the music, was our own pretty Lorean Fehr, as charming as ever. During the intermission, I gazed about me. In the front row, next to the orchestra, I saw some yellow hair that looked familiar to me. Just then the head turned and I saw our faculty advisor that was, Miss Pfau. I walked down the aisle as calmly as I could and sat down in a vacant seat in back of her. Upon inquiring what she was doing, I learned that she was now a stage critic of note and has made quite a success of it. When the curtain rose again, the stage was fitted up with rings and bars and other acrobatic equipment. A girl in pink tights was swinging from place to place with the agility of a monkey. Without looking at her face, I knew that it was Miriam Flick—yes, it was “Bub.” A lady announcer stepped on the stage to apprise the audience of the fact that the j erformance was ended and that they were to have an equally wonderful show the succeeding evening. It was Maybel Kahler. Why shouldn’t it l e? She had always made announcements in Assembly about our basketball games, and we verily believe that she enjoyed that sort of thing. Here was the person I had l een thinking alxwt for weeks, so I hurriedly left my seat and rushed around to the stage door to crave admittance. I met with an immediate rebuff from the doorkeej er. who was resplendent in brass buttons and gold braid. At first he absolutely refused to admit me, but I recog- nized him as Raymond Shafer and, as we renewed our acquaintance, he allowed me to ])ass through unmolested. I soon found Maybel. and she invited me to stay at her home as long as I should be in that city. I gladly accepted. We started home together. The honk of a horn made me start and we looked around. This machine looked familiar- It was the Ford of our high school days, that Mary Rohn used to drive, rather battered and worn with age, to be sure, but still hanging together. We got in without hesitation, and she drove us to our door. As we got out, she said that though her Ford was old. she could never bear to part with it as long as it continued to amble along. We waved goodbye and entered the apartment building, then the elevator. The operator was tall, with fair hair. I edged around to get a view of her face. Yes, it was Florence Hager. Mayl el explained that she lived next door to her here in the building. Next to traveling, this had always been one of my ambitions—to run one of these queer elevators up and down. We alighted and came to a door, which Maybel unlocked. We entered. There, reclining on a couch, eating chocolate creams and reading the latest edition of “Life,” was Margaret Roth. I wasn't surprised when they told me that here they kept “bachelor quarters.” I remem- bered that they had always dreamed of this, and they had carried it out exactly. The first floor contained parlor, living room, library and dining room. They took me upstairs; this floor consisted of a bedroom suite with a beautiful green-and- flamingo tiled bath. The next sight which met my eyes was the roof, which was 48 The i Comet entirely covered with earth and where grew all strange varieties of plants, even trees—a veritable roof garden. Here, under the palm tree, we had tea, and a very delightful tea time it was- Before we finished, visitors came, who were Dorothy Walker and Isabelle Russell. They told me that they were now charity workers traveling all over the country trying to reform social conditions. I com- mended them on their splendid ideals and then asked what their inseparable friend, Lahoma Peppell, was doing. Dot looked at me surprisedly. “Haven’t you heard about her? Why, she is one of the most famous con- gresswomen in the United States and Kathryn Andrews is her private secretary.” I confessed ignorance on that point. After our visitors left, we retired for the night, but not before having talked over the good old times of our high school days and recounting ex| eriences of the past years. The next week I left for my home town, Nazareth, because I was so home- sick after having seen all these dear friends and hearing aliout others that I felt I must get hack again to Nazareth High, where I sj ent so many happy days with my classmates. —E.

During the football season, we sought an addition to our treasury by dis- guising as hot dog” venders. We sold a number of doggies and realized quite a sum- We were also successful in the Lyceum Ticket sale. During the basket- ball season the Juniors were busy selling candy to the rooters. We feel proud that so many of our number have given their services to help hold high the standard of athletics and good spirit of N. H. S. Still others of us have turned our attention to the upholding of musical and literary activities. As it falls to the Juniors to have the honor of entertaining the Seniors at a Reception, we had that pleasure on December sixteenth. The gymnasium, appro- priately decorated in Yuletidc fashion, added to the enjoyment of the evening. As we realize the approach of our Senior year, we feel the dawning of a new responsibility.

As we looked back over the trail we saw our triumphs and defeats, our mistakes and our good steps. We started out with the resolve to go higher and to lx; more successful. We see our schoolmates toiling upward above us and we wish to follow in their foot- steps. Below us another group of people, the freshmen, started the climb. We hazed them and initiated them into the spirit of N. H. S. Several times during the year we helped in contests lietween classes—Lyceum Campaign, Magazine Campaign, etc. We gave some of our members to athletics, debating, and music. We hope our class will continue to contribute to these activi- ties in tlie future. We also choose the banner and colors under which we were to carry on. O11 Octolier 29, we stopi ed and entertained witches, ghosts, and strange l eople from foreign lands, arrayed in unfamiliar costumes. As the year draws to a close we find that we are half-way up the incline. The Freshmen are up as far as we were at the beginning of the year- The Juniors have only a short stretch to cover and as they look back they regret that they are almost through. The Seniors have reached the goal which stands as a lieacon light on the summit. As we look back over the past year we see the rough places, the little quarrels and dissensions. The road has not been smooth and several have dropped by the wayside unable to overcome the difficulties. As we leave the halls of our school for a rest before we continue our climb, we hope to come back letter prepared to make the third stage of our journey a successful one. —Thelma Knauss, Historian.

Our class also took an active part in athletics. Several of our meml ers were on the different teams, while our boys’ basketball team won the championship in the inter-class games. Another of our activities was the Freshman Literary So- ciety. which was successful throughout the year under the guidance of Miss Smith and Miss Eh ret. It has always been the custom for the Freshman Class to present a picture to the High School. This year we presented a picture called “Matterhorn.” Karl Laudig, a member of our class, wrote an Alma Mater which was adopted by our school.

It has been a long, tedious climb, but a position has been reached where future pros- jjects loom more brightly than ever before. For many years basketball was the only s]X rt high school students could engage in, l ecause there were no facilities for other sports—no tennis courts, base- ball diamond or gridiron. The district owned no plot of ground large enough for an athletic field, and apparently there was no satisfactory field available within reasonable distance from the school. The purchase of a plot of ground of about four acres in 1922 as a site for a new high school building was hailed as the solution of the athletic field problem. It soon became apparent, however, that the problem was far from solution. The plot was found to have a very considerable grade; to grade it would cost about $7,000. Nothing was done for several years about providing a field until in 1926 when a tract of about four acres became available as a part of the Fairview Terrace development directly east of the High School building. After thorough investiga- tion, the board concluded that this tract, although not entirely level, would serve the purpose reasonably well with small expenditures until such a time as money became available for proper grading. Accordingly the board purchased this tract from Mr. Peter S. Trumbower for a consideration of $5,000. In the spring of 1926 efforts were made to provide a baseball field on this tract. Through the courtesy of the Nazareth Cement Company a diamond was laid out, ploughed and graded. The board hired the town steam roller and had the entire field rolled- A reasonably good playing field resulted. A tennis court was also provided in the spring of 1927. The rough grading on this was done by the Nazareth Cement Company while the final grade and fence were provided by the board. The court proved very popular; so popular, indeed, that, in order to obtain the use of it, reservations had to be made sometimes a week ahead of time. Plans are under way now to conduct a tournament this spring for the championship of the high school. Each year seems to bring doubled vim and vigor to athletics and doubled in- terest in it by the citizens of Nazareth, and N. H. S. is proud. 69 ►- ,. to R.

Football, 1927 IT J[ he second season oe footbaij« at Nazareth High School was a very suc- cesstul one, its victories numliering six and defeats two. Our team was victorious over all its old rivals, losing only to Washington and Catasauqua. N. FI. S. won its first game on the new athletic field by defeating Pen Argyl. The game with N- H. M. A., rivals of long standing, was won by a close score, 13-12. On November 12 we played our last home game with the Northampton High School team. The game with Palmerton was the last game of the season. Oiir team was outweighed by every team played this year. Despite this handicap our team played fine games; our backfield was fast on the offense and sure on the defense. Captain Hinder deserves a great deal of credit for this year’s success. While all the l oys were loyal and willing, we must not forget the untiring efforts and interest of our coach, Mr. Leh. -4 70 The f 1928 Comet 1 v..

They had a very successful year, having lost only four out of eighteen games. With Hinder and Shafer at forward, Peppell at center, and Metzgar and Shinier at guard, the other teams did not have an easy time of it. Hinder alone scored 239 points, while Shafer scored 107. Shinier, Pep- pell and Metzgar also did fine scoring. But scoring alone did not count—it was the excellent team work and cooperation that brought the boys through with so many victories.

But after a month of hard practice, the team was ready to play its opening game, which was the first of six consecu- tive victories. 4 73 )3- Baseball, 1927 T j£‘je Nazareth High baseball team of 1927, under the leadership of Captain Weiss, completed a fairly successful season of nine games, considering the fact that it was the second year of baseball in the school and that not much interest was evidenced the first year. Coach Andy Lch took his charges to meet his Alma Mater, the strong Allentown team, for the first game of the season. The team made a good showing, considering its opponent, and for the remainder of the season played an improved brand of baseball. It is significant to note that the scores of Nazareth were close, while the victories were won by large margins. The scores of the season arc: SEASON OF 1927 Allentown 11 Nazareth Bangor 7 Nazareth Wilson 6 Nazareth Hcllcrtown 6 Nazareth Wilson 12 Nazareth Nazareth Hall 4 Nazareth Pen Argyl 9 Nazareth Hcllcrtown 4 Nazareth Nazareth Hall Nazareth Seniors 7 ’Varsity . 3 .. 5 .. 1 18 .20 . 3 .21 .26 . 3 . 8 . Season of 1928 ,1 great deal of INTEREST was shown in baseball this year; fifty candidates reported for practice. After dividing the squad into two teams Coach Lch began two weeks of hard practice getting his men in shape for the first game with Lchighton on April 13th. The team justified the predictions of a good season by decisively defeating the _ Lchighton team 20-13. Further encouragement was given to Captain Hinder by a second victory over Bangor in ten innings, with a score of 10-9. All signs point to a very successful season this year. -4 74 - Literary Society .Nat’l Oratorical Contest Debating Club Students Council triangular Debate Orchestra Girls Glee Club L. to R.

Student Council _£ he student council, as its name implies, is the general representative governing board of the student body. It is composed of twelve members—the class presidents and two representatives elected from each class- Council officers are elected directly by the student body. During the course of the school year, the Student Council conducts general school projects such as the annual school hike. Regular assembly programs have been arranged usually including outside speakers. Various campaigns have been undertaken for the betterment of school conduct and citizenship. It has materially aided in keeping the building in good condition. Representatives during the first term were: Seniors—Margaret Roth, Pres.; Harrison Hoch. Vice-Pres.; Lahoma PeppeU.

The question debated was “Resolved: That the United States should cancel the debts of Allied European nations incurred during the World War.” Since the negative team of each school was victorious over the affirmative of another school, the triangular debate resulted in a tie. The negative of Nazareth defeated the affirmative team of Northampton at Northampton, and our affirma- tive team lost to Pen Argyl at Nazareth. This is the second successive year that the debate has resulted in a tie. With the exception of Margaret Roth, who was alternate on last year’s debat- ing team, all the debaters made their first appearance in interscholastic debating. As there was only one senior on the debating team this year, the outlook for next year is very promising. It is our most sincere hope that the interest shown in debating thus far may continue and that success may be the reward of the efforts of the members of the teams. The members of this year’s debating teams were: Affirmative—Margaret Roth ’28, Captain; Grace Laudig ’29; Helen Good- hard ’30; Harold Rohn ’29, alternate. Negative—Thelma Knauss ’30, Captain; Mildred Haubert ’29; Marv Schlegel ’30; Willard Palmer ’30, alternate. - 4 77 GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB The 1928 Comet '7 D v_; gs t 'L Musical Activities he year 1927-1928 was a marked success in our music department guidance of Miss Davis, the orchestra and glee clubs were organized and officers elected: Under the the following ORCHESTRA President William Henry, ’28 .9 ecr clary-Treasu rer Kathryn Lehr. ’28 GLEE CLUB President Hester Kreidler, ’29 Secretary Mildred Haubert, ’29 The activities of the orchestra have been numerous.

Music Week was celebrated by the presentation of the operetta “Peggy and the Pirate” by Geoffrey Morgan and Geoffrey O'Hara. The orchestra and glee clubs cooperated with Miss Davis in making the operetta a huge success. Don Sterling ....... Bill Manning ....... Peggy Mayfield ..... Winnie Woodland Henry Mayfield .....

H. S. It is for the benefit of the entire student body and is conducted and arranged by them. The public is always invited to attend these performances. The program consists of debates, vocal solos, current topics, readings, anecdotes, biographies, instrumental selections and book reviews- The Literary Society this year was divided into two groups. Seniors, Juniors and Sophomores comprised the first group and the Freshmen, the other. The officers for the year for the upj er classmen’s Literary Society were: President, William Henry; Vice-President, John Smith; Secretary, Dorothy Metz; Treasurer, Walter Kostenbader; Asst. Secretary-Treasurer, Lorean Fehr. Officers for the Freshmen Literary Society were: President, Robert Mc- Clenagen; Secretary, Earl Laudig. nr Thrift Club J[ he freshmen thrift ci,UB was organized March 19, 1928, by Miss Ehret and Mr. Schwartz for the purpose of promoting the habit of saving among the students. The officers are Gladys Walker, Earl Laudig and Sterling Koch, treasurers. This club differs from public savings banks in the fact that small amounts can be deposited and no withdrawals can be made until a specified time. It meets every Monday in the respective periods of the classes. Although no obligations are connected with the club, deposits have been increasing regularly and steadily. The method of depositing is similar to that of a bank. The club and the holder of a deposit hold like slips on which space is designated for the amount to l)C deposited and the date. This is written on the bank slip and also on the holder slip. After all dej osits have been made for that day, the amount of money received according to the slips is added. The money itself is then counted in order to assure correctness and providing a double check. A report of each class is made and posted on the bulletin board. This serves as a stimulus for competition among the classes. Annual Exhibit IT Ji he exhibit of art work, manual training work and sewing work was staged in a rather unique manner this year- Heretofore it had been given in connection with the Operetta. The physical education classes under the direction of Mr. I,eh gave an exhibi- tion of their regular gym work. The fashion show staged by the sewing class was especially attractive. Each girl wore the garment made by her during the term. Those in pajamas carried candles and those wearing dresses carried baskets made by the art classes. The attractive graduating dresses worn by the eighth grade graduates were made by them in sewing class. It might l)e added that every girl in the seventh grade in order to receive credit must make at least one plain dress. A great deal of credit for the success of this year’s Operetta is due to the sewing and manual training classes. All the costumes and scenery were made by these classes. This exhibit is an annual affair, is open to the public and is of great interest to everyone. -•M 80 }S— ' I V-L 1 ml wm A Li 1 SOCIAL EVENTS SENIOR PLAY The t 192-8 Comet The Senior Play x THURSDAY and priday EVENING, March the first and second, Mary Roberts Rhinehart’s “Bab,” a delightful comedy in four acts, was presented by the class of '28- The play was given in the high school auditorium and was under the direction of Miss Anna M. Smith who deserved much commendation for her work. The music between the acts was furnished by the high school orchestra, under the direction of Miss Davis. The story “Bab” centers around Barbara Archibald, a fickle young miss, just home from college. She proceeds to fall in love with all the young men about her—at least this is true in the eyes of her family. She becomes involved in an affair with Guy Grosvenor, an actor. Her sister. Leila, becomes angry at “Bab” because she thinks Bab is flirting with her fiance, Clinton Beresford, a young Englishman, against whom Mr- Archibald is unjustly prejudiced. Finally the play ends happily by Bab's effecting a reconciliation between Leila, her father, and Beresford. Bab herself is happy in the prom-love of Carter Brooks, a young civil engineer. A great amount of work was done by the property committee, which was composed of the following Seniors: Isabel Russell. Chairman; Harold Simmons, Karl Audenried, Lahoma Peppell, Miriam Flick, Harold Jones, William Hinder, Kenneth Griffith and Wilbur von Steuben. The class is greatly indebted to the Buss Furniture Company for the use of the furniture needed in the play. THE CAST James Archibald...... William, the Butler.. Mrs. James Archibald.

This was the first time in several years that the much-looked-forward-to day dawned warm and clear. Special busses took the pleasure-seekers as far as Wind Gap Park. The climb up Wind Gap Hill was not so long, for many received “lifts” before they reached the summit. When the Lake was reached there was a general rush for the boats and swings. Everyone seemed to feel the picnic spirit. Many took advantage of the warm day and donned their bathing suits for a “dip.” A. Senior Doggie Roast [glorious doggie roast was given to the members of the faculty and Senior Class on Septmeber 28, 1927, by our classmate, Kathryn Lehr. The Roast was held in a large meadow on the outskirts of Stockertown. The picnickers hiked or motored to the place of pleasure and on arriving found things well under way. Soon the cry “eats” brought everyone to the table for doggies to be roasted at the campfire. Eats! A veritable banquet was given us—corn, potatoes, doggies, doughnuts, coffee—a real banquet indeed! After eating—it seemed as though we’d never stop—the crowd gathered about the campfire for stories and songs. Senior Hallowe’en Party % annual senior hallow'een party, held November 4, opened with a Grand March. Faculty members acted as judges for the prettiest, funniest, and most original costumes- The prize for the prettiest was awarded to Robert Peppell, dressed as a Spanish Senor; the funniest was won by Maybel Kahler, in the dis- guise of an old-fashioned lady, while Kenneth Griffith, as the nurse of the party, won the prize for the most original. We wonder where he got his shoes? The evening was spent in games and dancing, the music being furnished by members of the Senior Class. Our Three-Piece Orchestra (?) consisted of Irene Hess, pianist; Leonard Snyder, saxaphonist; Leon Brong and Harrison Hoch, violinists. Sophomore Hallowe’en Party N the bewitched night of October 28 we assembled in the gymnasium, which was prettily decorated in orange and black. A well-arranged program of games furnished plenty of amusement. One of the prominent features of the evening was the Grand March, after which prizes were awarded to Anna Breing and Martin Smith for the prettiest costumes, to Ada Kortz for the most original, to Virginia Hummel for the funniest, and honorable mention to Minerva Frantz. —6{ 84 )s— lon$ legged twins Senior One among mani | Champion hikers troubadours gay Our itostesses The f 1928 f C oryx e t Junior-Senior Reception 'L junior-senior reception, which is the major social function of the year, was held on Friday, December 16, 1927, in the gymnasium, which was attractively decorated with greens symbolizing the Christmas spirit. Entertainment was pro- vided in the form of cards and dancing. The music was furnished by the Easton Colored Novelty Orchestra. The reception was opened by a grand march led by the presidents of both classes, at the conclusion of which a beautiful bouquet of roses was presented by the Junior President, Walter Backman, to Miss Smith, Junior Faculty Advisor. During the intermission delicious refreshments were served by the committee in charge, after which the entertainment continued until a late hour. The various committee chairmen were: decoration, Samuel Shimer; refresh- ment, Mildred Haubert; arrangements, Russell Metzgar. Senior Christmas Program f J. f noise and boisterous ness are indications of the success of the affair, then the Senior Christmas Program on December 23 was a howling success. The program lasted from two o’clock until three-thirty. Upon entering the assembly, the first thing noticed was a huge Christmas tree, beautifully decorated and shining with colored lights. During the course of the program the curtains were drawn, there was a shuffling behind scenes, and then the curtains opened to reveal Santa seated in his sleigh with his well-filled pack beside him. He immediately greeted everyone, called his helpers, and presented gifts to each member of the Senior Class and Faculty. Many of the gifts were really funny and enjoyed by the whole school. The verses accompany- ing them were especially well-suited- The Senior Girls’ Glee Club sang Christmas carols during the intervals when Santa rested from his lal ors. A great deal of credit for Santa’s appearance is due to Enid Minter for she telephoned to him for the benefit of the Freshmen and told him they were anxious to have him come. Kathryn Lehr gave us a musical recitation which we all enjoyed, and William Henry played a cornet solo. The distribution of candy and the singing of “Jingle Bells” by the audience ended the Seniors’ Christmas Program. -4 86 The f Comet i 9 a 8 r Athletic Association A HE purpose OF the Athletic Association is to carry on the athletics of the school. The Association is governed by the Athletic Council which is composed of the president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer, faculty manager and mana- gers of all sports. A committee of four—William Hinder. Stanley Clewell, Walter Kosten- bader and Miriam Boyer—has been appointed to revise the constitution, which has been found inadequate since the beginning of baseball and football. Another committee—Margaret Roth, Dorothy Walker, lister Kratz, William Hinder— has been appointed to make up a history of all games that have been played since athletics began in the school, and to keep account of all students who have won letters. A new system of selecting managers for the various sports has been inaugu- rated©. Every manager, selected from upper classmen, shall have an under classman to help him. The assistant will have first chance of becoming the man- ager when he becomes a Junior or Senior. This has been done so as to give the manager more experience when he is selected for his position. Athletics as a whole have taken great strides in N. H. S. during the last year or so. It is to be hoped that in the future they may achieve even greater prominence.

As to her refusal to do the homework, please illiterate it from your memory, as she is now more or less sorry. She’s as headstrong as an allegory on the Ganges and I regret to state my affluence over her is small.” Teacher to Harold P.—“What do you do in school all day?” Harold—“Well, mostly I wait until it’s time to go home.” Miss S. in English Class—“Sherwood, what three words arc most used in the English lan guage?” Sherwood M.—“I dont know.” Miss S.—“Correct.” In Bookkeeping Class—Warren K.—“I’ve added my trial balance ten times.” Mr. S.—“You ambitious boy.” Warren—“And here arc the ten answers.” In Filing Class— Harrison, do you know your alphabet?” Harrison—“I think I do.” “Well, then, what letter comes after ‘a’?” Harrison—“All the rest of them.” Proud Parent—“Does my boy show any special aptitude for work?” Teacher—“I think so. Mr. P. I am not certain as yet whether James will make a sculptor or a baseball player. He is unerring in his aim with paper wads, but the condition of his desk- top convinces me that he can carve with considerable facility.” THAT ENGLISH LANGUAGE! A man asked an office boy if Mr. Jones or his partner reached the office first. “Well,” said the boy, “Mr. Jones at first was always last, but later he began to get earlier, till last he was first, though before he was always behind. He soon got later again and got behind as before, but I expect he'll be getting earlier, sooner or later.” The teacher had written on the back of a test paper: “Please write more legibly.” The next day the student went to the desk and asked: “Miss--------, what is this that you wrote on the back of my paper?” In English Class (teaching description after a blizzard)—“As we walk out on this beautiful winter dav and look around, what do we sec on every hand?” H. H.—“Gloves.” Mrs. O. to Mr. O.—“I just knew if you kept that old chemistry book around the house that I’d get it mixed up with the cook book sometime!” Mr. K.—“How’s your Dave getting along in high school?” Mr. M.—“Ach! He’s half-back on the football team and all the way back in his studies.” 4( 106 73 The i 1928 Comet Things You Never Heard! ! ! !

It’s hard to keep on your feet.” “Oh,” replied Miss S. coldly, “then you were really trying to. I thought it was accidental.” Motor Cop to Mr. S.

(with no license, but with presence of mind)— I thought you just said, ‘Good morning, Senator.’ ” Cop— Well, you sec, Senator, I wanted to warn you about driving fast thru the next township.” “Size yourself up. Are you on the level with yourself? Isn’t your self-confidence ahead of your energy and fight? Ninety per cent is a fine mark for a boy to make at school but it’s no mark for a man in the school of life. Ten per cent more effort would put us over the top, but we stop short and call it a day.
