Proudly, yet timidly, we entered the building, and soon found ourselves wandering aimlessly through the halls, until at last, some kind person directed us to a room. Surrounding us. were some familiar faces, but also those of strangers. The students we then knew, we have learned to know and judge better, and those strange to us then, have become bound in friendship during this four year voyage. We were then shown four ships, in each of which, we were required to spend a year of traveling, in order to complete our course, and to be better prepared to undergo the journey of life, which would follow. [ 20 ] The 1929 Comet After entering the S. S. Freshman. which was a small green boat, we organ- ized our class and selected a member of the faculty to be our adviser through the year. By means of work and cooperation, a good number of us strolled off the gang-plank in June 102b. ready for the next course in the fall. After having embarked on the S. S. Sophomore, in warm September, we found the number of passengers decreased to fifty-one. This cruise was a bit harder than the first but one of the early pleasures which we enjoyed was the Sophomore Hallowe'en party, our first social event. During this year, we took our turn at good-naturedly hazing the Freshmen. We considered ourselves a little bit bigger, but we discovered that we still had much to learn. At length the ship docked, and although some had grown tired of the journey, thirty-six of us felt proud that we had gone half-way. In September. 1027. we were ready for the third quarter. The S. S. Junior, though it had some dark days, took us through many sunny paths. We recall with pleasure the fun we had during the preparations for the re- ception which we gave the Class of ’28.” In the spring, we all enjoyed ourselves on a hike and doggie roast at I lenry’s Dam. September. 1028. found but thirty willing to enter on our fourth and last lap of the cruise. T his ship, the S. S. Senior, being larger and harder to mann. took us sometimes through rough and stormy waters; and although rocks loomed up before us, at times, we can surely admit that even if we were forced to pull hard the pleasures and success we feel, have outweighed the disadvantages. Many were the things which we enjoyed in this Senior year, but the climax of all came with our trip to Washington, for which we strove four years. This was taken the first week in May. We were very glad to have Miss Nicholas and Mr. I.eh. who entered into the enthusiasm of the trip with us. livery year, some of us have participated in various activities. Among our number are those who have lent their musical talents to the glee clubs and orchestra; others have followed literary and oratorical pursuits; while many have aided in athletics and sports. Indeed, our boys have done much in baseball, football, and basketball to keep the Blue and White banner flying. And now, as we stand on the threshold and look back, we hope that though it may be small, we may leave behind some thought or inspiration to those who will follow, the course we have just completed. And as we gaze ahead, and know that we are to become alumni of N. II. S., we wish that the Class 1929, may become an asset to that organization. I 21 1 Mildred Halbert.

Bill frequently delights us with his iiddle. For four years. Bill has been a member of our high school orchestra. However, his talent is not confined to music for he is a fine student as well.

MINNIE APPLEGATE “Min” Desires to be—A Stenographer Destined to be—Chewing Gum Magnate “Min” is a quiet unassuming maid. She was an asset to the class during In- stitute Week.

Where’er you go. whate’er you do; the best wishes of ’29 go with you. Glee Club (4).

But now, since I have a few spare minutes. I'm going to put the facts down in black and white so that you can get them without having an endless speech imposed upon you at a time when you may be busy. It was a beautiful day in fall—October 28. 1926, to be exact—just the kind of day that seems to make your spirits bulge out and nearly explode. The bleak grayness of autumn hadn’t yet come upon the earth. The air had a happy sort of snap about it. and the sky above was a bright, piercing blue with little wisps of fleecy clouds like an ocean at sunny noon, with white, foamy waves rolling upon it. All nature was at its best, as we drove along toward Philadelphia; from the huge trees which bordered the road to the little grasses in the fields, all seemed at their prime, as if they knew that soon they would be called to sleep. It was Institute Week, and because of the vacation, several friends and I had decided to visit the city. f 33 ] The 1929 Comet We entered Philadelphia at io a. m.. and drove immediately to the Sesqui- Centennial grounds. As we entered the driveway, I decided that the day just mustn’t pass without at least one nice adventure, or something really exciting hap- pening. At last we were on the Sesqui grounds, and after finding a parking place so many feet from the corner without a fire plug in front of it. or a “no parking” sign near it. we finally left the machine. Since my friends and I had different ideas as to which exhibits were worth while, we all decided to go by ourselves, in order to avoid unnecessary disagree- ments and waste of time. So we said goodbye till luncheon time, and each took a separate path. I strolled along, stopping here and there to look at little novelties which were displayed. Then I made my way into the Pennsylvania Building where I spent about half an hour. After that, I went into the India Building. As soon as I had entered, the atmosphere seemed changed. The smell of oriental perfumes made the air actually heavy, and dark-skinned men stood at every booth offering richly embroidered tapestries and odd novelties. I walked around several times, and then started for the back door of the building. Just before reaching it. I was attracted by someone standing in the main aisle. It was an old man. l ie had a somewhat dark skin, to which age had not been kind He had a large mustache and a snowy beard which reached almost to his waist. On his head was a turban of gay material, fastened in front with a ruby pin. His face bore a depressed and forsaken look, and as I gazed at him. I saw that his hands trembled. I wondered whether he had been unsuccessful in his sales, so I just stepped up and asked him what he was selling. I le turned a pair of tired brown eyes upon me. and said. “Oh. missee. what I have, you no can hold, you can feel not. You would not want it. Youth of this America, want jewels, candy, perfume. They not want this immaterial. I give you just a vision. Now my curiosity was aroused. I thought of you classmates, anti wondered if perhaps I couldn’t get just a peep into the future. I asked the old gentleman. He said: Yes, come, what time you want to see?” Inwardly. I was amused at myself for doing such a seemingly foolish thing, so. laughing to myself. I said: “Oh, about 1940. That will do.” So saying. I entered a small tapestry covered room. (341 The 1929 Comet When I had seated myself on the little bench, the old gentleman called in a shaking voice. “Grelia. turn on the nitrous oxid.” Then I began to get scared. What in the world was going to happen? But just then the man turned to me, and told me not to think of anything but just to relax. Then a young girl came through the doorway and pressed a small button. Soon I began to laugh, and the first thing I knew. I was just flying through space. It was a most unusual sensation. Then suddenly I entered a beautiful woodland. The sun was just rising and the land was flooded with beauty. As I walked along the wooded paths flowers sprang at my feet, and at my left a stream flowed along. The water in it rippled, although its path was strewn with rocks and hindrances, which it passed over with difficulty. As I walked along. I heard the most beautiful music. It just seemed to be life itself, personified by melodious tunes. I came to a road, and soon heard, honk, honk, and before I knew it. a machine had stopped by my side, and a voice familiar to me. said. Would you care to drive to town with me. I assure you it will be more pleasant than walking.” I turned and whom should I see but my old friend, Warren Johnson. “Why Warren, where am I. and what are you doing here?” You're in 1940,” he said. “Yes. I know, but it extends over the whole world.” “Well, this is I:ranee, and I’m here selling this kind of car. Like it? By the way. I heard you were hunting antiques in London and Spain.” Yes I was. but I want to get a steamer for old U. S. A., and well, I just must have gotten lost. I'm so glad you came along.” We’re heading for gay Paree now. and then I'll see that you get to England tomorrow, so you can sail for the states. I 'd like to go home myself, but business is UK) pressing. Do you remember Stanley Clewell? Well, he’s here in Paris posing for an exclusive tailor.” Really! I remember Stanley always was rather good-looking. I imagine he brings lots of customers.” Having arrived at Paris. I registered at a fine hotel. As I wrote my name, my eyes strayed up the page and I was surprised to see “Grace Dennis” written above. 1 was just wild to see her. At dinner time I waited in the lobby until Grace approached. We had quite a chat in the dining room, and Grace told me she was the private secretary of a wealthy New Yorker, and had been doing [ 35 l The 1929 Comet special work for him. And more wonderful, she would accompany me homeward the next day. During our talk. Grace told me several interesting things. “You remember Clark, don’t you? Well he and his young bride were at this hotel jjList a week ago, enroute on their honeymoon.” “Oh. isn’t that lovely.” “David Michael and his partner are investigating some mining proposition in China.” “Oh. I certainly hope they’ll be successful. That’s quite risky at times. That evening Grace and I attended a theatre. I simply gazed when the curtain was drawn up. Why wasn’t that?—Yes. it must be—of course. It was our old classmate. John McGonigle. He had become a very noted French actor. I looked at my program, and the next number was a concert by M. Guillaume. “Why, you know that’s Bill Altemose. l ie’s a wonderful violinist. They say he practices in the woods, just to get nature’s sounds in his playing.” So that explained the music I had heard in the woodland. Two days afterwards. Grace and I boarded the S. S. Winchester.” As we entered the dining salon for lunch, I heard someone murmur. “Here comes the United Stales Ambassador to Poland with his wife and daughter.” I turned around, and whom should I see but Margaret Wunderly. So Peggy had married an ambassador! He was very nice looking, and their little girl was too cute for words. Margaret didn't see us. so we didn’t get to talk to her. Grace anti I walked out on deck, and I picked up a New York paper, which someone brought on the ship. I read the headlines of a murder, and a few lines from the top it said. “Detective Lehr has several clues and is working steadily on the case.” And there before my eyes was a picture of Charlie. It certainly was most interesting to hear about everybody. Then my eyes rested on another column. “Winner of great swimming match at London”—Donald Roth from the United States. My, so Donald had been abroad anti won a great honor. Just then I turned around and saw another familiar face. It was my old friend Anna Lerch. wasn’t it? Yes. Why Anna,” I said. “What in the world—” [ 36 ] The 1929 Comet “Oh, don't worry, I'm just coming from Paris. I have a little gown shop on Fifth Avenue in New York, and I’ve just been to France, purchasing goods. I low are you both?” “We’re fine, but do tell us all you know about everybody.” “Well, you've heard about Minnie, surely.” “No—” “You haven’t? She’s the owner of a wonderful hair dressing parlor in New York. She’s known all over the country for the beautiful permanents she gives. I ler shop is just across from mine.” Indeed! Well. I must go and see her. as soon as I have a minute’s time.” “And you know.” continued Anna, “that I larold Wolfe is captain of this boat.” Is he? My goodness, I don’t believe many of our classmates are in old Nazareth.” We had a lovely time reminiscing old times, the few days we were on the boat, but when we docked at Norfolk, Ya., I was glad to be on native soil again. Grace had business to transact in Washington. I). C, so in the meantime we went to visit Anna Stem. She was happily married, and lived in a lovely home at Norfolk. While we were lunching with her, Anna called us to the window to see an airplane fly past. She told us it was her husband on his way to Washington and every single day she watches him go by. In the afternoon. I hastened with Grace to Washington, where she was to meet her employer. I decided to enjoy myself in the Capitol city, while she was busy. I passed a building which was thronged with people, and I decided to inquire what was going on. “What is it?” I asked one of the spectators. “Senator Rohn is delivering a speech on the Republican nominee for president.” I made my way through the crowded doorway. It couldn’t be Harold, my old friend! Sure enough, whom should I see and hear but I larold Rohn, delivering a wonderful speech? I couldn’t wait to speak to him. so I continued my inspection of the city. [ 37 ] The 1929 Comet Soon I came to a field, and the first person who drew my attention was a man who stood very erectly. I saw a blur of eighteen gold discs on a field of blue, and then I overheard a younger man speaking to him. “Commander Metzgar, may I use your plane for an hour?” “Yes. but be sure to be back within that time.” “Yes, sir.” Why that was Russell Metzgar. He had become one of the commanders at Annapolis. I looked at my watch and had only ten minutes to meet Grace and get the train for New York, so I hastened on. We arrived in New York the next morning and took a Windy Taxicab. I was terribly surprised, for inside was a paper on which it stated that Warren Kahler was the president of the company. Just as we stepped out of the car, whom should we see but Mary Dry in the midst of the Broadway crowd. We stopped her and the three of us made our way into the Hotel. Mary told us that she had been teaching English in Brooklyn, but was leaving for Nazareth in a few days to prepare for her wedding which was going to take place within a month. She had planned to make her home in the dear old town. We had quite a chat with Mary. She told us that Hester was the Dean of women, at Syracuse, anil all the girls simply adored her. “And do you know about Carl Beitel.” “No, how is he?” “Well, he took up scientific farming at Penn State. Then he purchased a farm in Alaska and is simply piling up money by growing strawberries so large, that eight fill a quart box.” “Isn’t that marvelous.” “And Ida George married the poet. Byron Swaine. They’re living out West in a delightful paradise of their own.” We talked of various things and decided to phone Hester, and all take a trip up the Hudson the next day. The river was simply beautiful, and about noon, we came in sight of West Point. We had an hour to remain here, so we went ashore, and started to stroll [ 38 ] The 1929 Comet through the grounds. As we approached the chapel. I Saw a long line of cadets on both sides of the entrance. I asked a gentleman what the excitement was. “There's been a wedding.” he said. As we drew nearer. I heard an organ, anti soon I saw a bride and groom come from the church and pass under an archway of swords. It was very beautiful. As they approached, whom should the groom happen to be but Samuel Shinier, and the bride was simply charming. Of course we couldn’t delay them, so we went into the church to hear the music. When we were entering whom should we see at the organ but I lelen Heck- man. We approached Helen. How arc you,” we exclaimed, and why are you here?” She told us that she was the organist in the chapel. We talked over old limes and Helen said. You remember Gladys Shook, don’t you? Well she is traveling out West with a very wealthy family. And Walter Bachman is doing work for the government in South America. He’s dis- covered a new transparent metal, which is very useful. Yes, I always thought Pete would do research work.” We went back to New York, and the next afternoon arrived in Nazareth. Where Nazareth Hall now stands was a large hospital, and Grace Buss was the head nurse. We called on her and she told us that .Vltlvin Jones was the owner of a large theatre in Allentown. As we passed through the hospital grounds, whom should we see but Grace Laudig. She had her son with her. She told us she lived in Connecticut but was visiting town, and showing her little boy her girlhood home. “By the way. where is Evelyn? I asked. Oh. she and her husband own a summer resort in the Poconos. She is there now.” We all took a bus for the 11igh School, and were riding along when suddenly there was a terrible collision, and the first thing I knew, I was handing two dollars to the dark-skinned gentleman.

I. To the whole school our ability for getting into trouble. II. To the Juniors we bequeath the hard work that awaits them in their Senior year. III. To the Sophomores our dignity which will probably make them worthy of being upper classmen. IV. To the Freshmen half.of our knowledge which will be enough for ALL of them. V. The following qualities we distribute as personal gifts to those whom we deem worthy of such bequests. 1. Minnie Applegate’s and Helen Heckman’s quietness to Mary Schlegel. Although we know this will not suffice we feel sure that it will be a great aid. 2. William Altemose’s musical ability to all the cornet players to aid them in playing some melody during orchestra practice. 3. Walter Bachman’s executive ability to the President of the Junior ('lass. This will aid in guiding them thru their Senior year. 4. Carl Beitel’s speed and grace to Ralph Slonaker. A combination of the two will make a great toe dancer of Ralph. 5. Grace Buss’s red tresses and complexion to Oliver Kahler. These will put some light on the subject. [ n 1 The 1929 Comet 6. Stanley Clewell’s way with women to William Karch. May you be a heart breaker next year. 7. Grace Dennis’s modesty and girlish walk to Mary Manck to help her in remaining a girl. 8. Mary Dry’s sentimental ways to Milo Meixell. i). Mildred Haubert's impunctuality to all those that are tardy. 10. Ida George’s vocal ability to all members of next year’s Girl's Glee Club. 11. Warren Johnson’s ability to bluff to Joseph Fox. Perhaps this will aid in keeping out of mischief. 12. Melvin Jones’ Ford to those students coming to N. 11. S. next year from Chapman’s Quarries. 13. Warren Kahler’s aid to any class who wishes some moving to be done. 14. Hester Kreidler’s poetic ability to Vernon Buzzard. 1 5. Grace Laudig’s dependability to Fmmet Young. 16. Charles Lehr’s good nature to whoever needs it. 17. Anna Lerch’s ability to keep slender to Dorothy Shafer. 18. Russell Metzgar’s ability in managing this Comet to next year’s busi- ness manager. 19. David Michael’s easy-going manner to F.thel Leh. 20. John McGonigle’s ability to make wise-cracks in class and get away with it to all those that don’t get away with it. 21. Harold Rohn’s hearty laugh to Virginia Hummel. 22. Donald Roth’s poker face to George l langen. 23. Clark Serlass’s height to Earl Laudig. 24. Evelyn Scheetz’s cheery disposition to all those that take Exams too seriously. 25. Gladys Shook’s knowledge of the plumbing trade to Kermit Knecht. This should make you a great aid to your father. Kermit. 26. Anna Stem’s blushes to Kathryn Engle. 27. Harold Wolfe’s suppressed mirth to John Memmert. 28. Margaret Wunderly’s industriousness to Sherwood Messinger. Lastly, we give to those who follow us all the success that they desire in making next year’s Comet the best ever. In Witness Whereof, we hereunto set our hand and seal, this first day of June.

We watch the Seniors leave and realize that in an incredibly short time we shall follow in their footsteps. As we look back to the time when we entered the school as Freshmen it seems impossible that we have passed three years in these halls. Phis year we have given some of our members to the football, basketball, and baseball teams as in previous years. Our class has been well represented in the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs. On December the seventh, the Senior reception was held in the gymnasium, which was trimmed in scarlet and gray in honor of the guests. Cards and dancing were the entertainment of the evening.

Many of our members have participated in the athletic, musical and literary activities of the school. During the year, we engaged in several inter-class contests, winning second prize in the Lyceum campaign and many individual rewards in the magazine drive. We selected our colors and banners under which we hope to carry on a Suc- cessful high school career. On October 27. pausing from our work for a bit of fun. we gathered to- gether for a Hallowe'en party. Prizes for the most pretty, comical and original costumes were awarded to Miriam Keimer. Layton Nicholas and Russell Metzgar. As the year draws to a close we find that we are half way through Nazareth High School and we look forward with great hopes and expectations to the third year of our journey.

One of these organizations is the Dramatic Club which functioned under the direction of Miss Little. The officers are: President, Mary Dry: Secretary, Mildred Haubert; Treasurer, Anna Lerch. Although it is very young, and although there are but few members, the club has shown its ability on various occasions. We hope that interest in Dramatics in Nazareth High School may continue to grow and that our newly organized club may become stronger each year. V The Thanksgiving Play O N the 28th of November, a Thanksgiving play was presented by the members of the Dramatic (dub entitled “ The Mysterious Thanksgiving Guest.” The char- acters were: Mr. Jonathon Perkins, farmer. John Memmert; Mrs. Mary Jane Per- kins. his wife, Beatrice Rundle; Albert, the hero. Jacob braunfelder; Rev. Ephraim Sage, the village parson, Ralph Slonaker; Miss Susan Crocker, the village gossip. Marion Kern: Sally, the kitchen maid. Grace Dennis; Bob. the grocer’s boy. Nelson Bramer. The play contained much humor which was partially offset by a rather tragic element. This, together with the talent of the characters, made the present- ation very interesting. The play was coached by Miss Little. The National Forensic League TIII: purpose of the National Forensic l eague is to promote and encourage in- terscholastic debating among students in the high schools of the United States. A badge of distinction is conferred upon any instructor or student who. by his par- ticipation in this work, has earned membership in this organization.

I ea ] The 1929 Comet Out-of-Town Association T HE Out-of-Town Association is made up of the out-of-town students, who pledged themselves to take charge of the High School building in the absence of all teachers during the noon hour. This Association has been very successful in carry- ing out the purpose for which it was organized. The president is John Smith, who appointed the following committee to assist him during the year: Russell Metzgar '29: Vincent Sandercock ’30; Grace Williamson ’31: Walter Peters ’32. % Publicity Committee Dili to increasing events in regular and extra curricular activities in Nazareth High School, the publicity committee was organized. This committee publishes weekly the activities of every member or organization. Through its successful ef- forts. our fellow-citizens of Nazareth are made acquainted with the principal events of school. During the past year this responsibility was vested in the following committees: Mary Schlegel. miscellaneous reports; Thelma Knauss. reports of assembly programs: Virginia Hummel, reports of organizations; Beatrice Mill- house. class functions and meetings: Jacob Fraunfelder, athletic events; Evelyn Scheetz and Minnie Applegate, typists. Magazine Committee EvERY citizen who has taken an interest in our library will agree that Nazareth High School has a good, up-to-date, magazine rack. Its shelves are supplied with magazines of many varieties. Great care is taken in their selection. The mag- azine committee undertakes the responsibility of selecting the journals and renew- ing the desirable ones.

It has grown since its organization on January 11. 1027 from only a few members to an enrollment of approximately two hundred. During its short existence it has made rapid strides in promoting child wel- fare in the home and community. It has endeavored to develop ideal standards of home life. What is probably most important, it brings 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. I 64 ] The 1929 Comet [ 65 ] The 1929 Comet SENIOR PLAY t 66 i The 1929 Comet The Senior Play I-J N DER the faithful guidance of .Miss Ehret, the Senior Class, on January 15th and 16th, presented the play, “Pals First , a comedy in a prologue and three acts. The story centers about two educated young men. Dominie and Danny, reduced to the life of tramps. We first see them ap- proaching the mansion of a wealthy southern gentleman, Richard Castleman, who is reported to lx abroad. Danny is welcomed by a colored servant as the long absent owner, and they immediately establish themselves in the mansion. Complications arise but Danny. Mr. Castleman's apparent double, proves equal to all diffi- culties except the opposition of l)r. Chilton. Dick Castleman's cou- sin. who having destroyed Dick’s will and obtained proof of his death, hopes to succeed to his fortune and the favor of his fiancee, Jean Logan. The climax is reached when detectives, summoned by Chil- ton, prove that Danny is really the missing Dick. Dominie, great- ly amazed at this strange turn, feels obliged to return to the road until Dick and Jean, now happily reunited, induce him to stay by the call, “Pals First” and “Chicken, Dominie, chicken.” Great credit for the success of the play is due to the effici- ent work of the property committee. The Class is greatly indebted to Raisbeck Diehl of Easton for the use of their furniture. HIE CAST Danny ................. Dominie................ Uncle Alex, a servant .. The Squirrel, a tramp .

I 67 1 The 1929 Comet Annual Hike O N Saturday, September 22nd. about fifty students and two members of the faculty attended the annual hike to Saylor’s Lake. The day proved to he ideal for hiking; so that at nine o'clock the bus leaving for Wind Gap was a scene of great activity. After reaching Wind Gap Park, the students started to hike as is customary, hut it was not long before almost every hiker re- ceived a lift”. Upon arriving at the lake the real fun began. Due to the cold weather, very few went in swimming but many enjoyed boat- ing. A group also assembled in the lake pavilion to enjoy games and dancing. The climax of the outing was reached at lunch time when merry groups congregated at different tables surrounding the lake. After lunch the merrymaking was again continued. Hikes were also taken about the lake. At five o’clock everyone started on the homeward journey declaring that the day was a most successful one. Sophomore Hallowe'en Party ‘1 ME Sophomore class celebrated its first social event. Novem- ber 27. at a Hallowe’en celebration in a most beautifully decorated gymnasium. A most mysterious atmosphere was created by the many colored costumes. Prizes were awarded for the prettiest, the funniest, and the most original costumes. The principal features of the evening were games and danc- ing. Delicious refreshments were served. When the evening came to a close every one wished that Hallowe’en would come more than once a year. Junior-Senior Reception 'TI IE most impo tant social event of the year was held December 7. when the Juniors entertained the Senior class. The gymnasium was most appropriately decorated with pennants of the various classes, the outstanding colors being those of the Senior class, cerise and silver gray. During the evening Miss Little. Junior Class Adviser, was presented with a beautiful bouquet. The evening was spent in cards and dancing. The novel feature of the reception was two sketches dramatized by members of the Junior class. Delicious refreshments were served. The affair proved to be most enjoyable. I 68 ] The 1929 Comet Senior Christmas Program T HE long anticipated day had arrived. Eor December 2. was the day the Seniors and I'acuity were to receive their gil ts. The program lasted from two o’clock to three-thirty. Before Santa arrived, a short program was rendered by the Seniors. This consisted of a recitation by Evelyn Schcetz. Ida George then favored the school with a vocal solo. The Senior boys’ quartet rendered several selections. Santa was then introduced by means of a short Christmas playlet. Those taking part were Anna Lerch and Hester Kreidler. Warren Kahler acted as Santa. The stage was artistically decor- ated. The holiday spirit was expressed by means of a huge illu- minated Christmas tree in the center of the stage. After the play. Santa’s helpers distributed the gifts. To each a clever verse was attached, thus explaining its significance. The program was brought to a close by the distribution of candy to all present. n Educational Tour I III: S. S. Catlwalailer was again the temporary home of a Naz- areth High School Class. The class of ’29 left on Monday, May ( , for a trip to Washington. Leaving Philadelphia on the steamer at 6:00 p. m. we pro- ceeded down the Delaware River arriving at Baltimore early in the morning. At Baltimore, buses transported the party to Washington. Here excellent lecturers were in attendance pointing out the prin- cipal buildings and famous landmarks. We enjoyed Tuesday afternoon by taking a trip to the Ar- lington Cemetery and Mount Vernon. A delightful evening was spent in the Congressional Library. Wednesday was spent in visiting the Bureau of Engraving, the Pan-American Building. The Corcoran Art Gallery, and the White House and Museums. The evening was at our disposal and was spent at the theater and in other forms of amusement. On Thursday we went to the Botanical Gardens and on a walk to the Capitol. In the afternoon, preparations were made for the homeward journey. Our steamer arrived at Philadelphia the next morning. Friday night found us once more in Nazareth after spend- ing a delightful week on an educational tour. [ 69 ] The 1929 Comet Assembly Programs 2 .N event to which all students of Nazareth High School looked forward, was the weekly assembly program. The purpose of the assembly programs was to give every student an opportunity to participate in the rendering of any type of entertainment planned. We are. of course, deeply indebted to individual members of the faculty who. from time to time, were selected to sponsor a program. Through the efforts of Miss Ehret, an interesting entertainment entitled “Fire Prevention and a “Current Events program were rendered. Miss Schuler sponsor- ed several music appreciation performances which everyone enjoy- ed. In addition to this, Miss Schuler aided us by leading all school singing every Wednesday morning. Miss Little coached the Thanksgiving play given by members of the Dramatic Club. Through the combined efforts of Miss Little and Miss Nicholas our members of the debating teams presented their speeches before the student body. Their first presentation was in the preliminary debate, the second in the contest for the award of the Alumni debating prizes. The French and Latin classes entertained the student body by singing songs in the respective languages. Mr. Osborn led a Physics program consisting of experiments and their explanations. I le also formulated a food program which proved to be both interesting and instructive. Miss Dixon coached a play given by members of the commercial classes entitled “Best Business Practic- es.” Mr. Cump contributed by producing a patriotic Memorial Day program with the assistance of the Boy and Girl Scouts. And finally, we come to the Senior Farewell in assembly. It is needless to tell of the expression of grief mingled with pride among all members of Nazareth High School when this program was rendered.

Football 1928 a 'I I IP NAZARETH High Sclwx l football team closed the season with a very good record, winning four games, losing three and tying one. The first game of the season our boys went down to defeat at the hands of Pen Argyl. Following that we won four games straight. In the game with Whitehall we piled up a score higher than any ever achieved in the history of Nazareth High School, the score being 83-0. The last and most exciting game of the season was played with Wilson. In spite of the fact that we were greatly outweighed our boys outplayed their opponents at every point. The game was scoreless until the last five minutes when Wilson got the breaks and won the game. The untiring efforts of Mr. Leh and the cooperation of Captain Michael contributed much to the success of the team.

Friendly rivalry existed between the four classes for several weeks prior to the meet. On the day of the meet this rivalry was evidenced by the large number of students who turned out to root for their respective teams. The athletes were hampered somewhat by the lack of equipment but regardless of this fact some outstanding perform- ances were made by the competitors. When the final count was taken it was found that the Junior Class placed first, with the Sophomores a close second, the Seniors third, and the Freshmen last. Although Nazareth High is without a representative track team, we feel confident that the interest shown by the students in these two track meets will be a great influence in securing a team of this kind in the near future.

Clewell was high scorer with a total of 160 points. How- ever it was the cooperation of the entire team and the aid of our coach that enabled them to make a success of the season.

Although some of the games required extra innings the boys kept the blue and White fighting spirit and always came through victorious. Every member can be proud, in after years, to look back and say that he was a member of this team, which made an un- breakable record at Nazareth High School. A great deal of credit for the team’s success must be given to our outstanding moundsman. Michael, who pitched every game. But his success was. in turn, largely due to the splendid support which he received from the rest of the team. Much credit must also be given to our coach and captain, who by their untiring efforts established this enviable record.

A very hard schedule was arranged by the managers and for that reason best efforts are being put forth to make a team that is worthy of representing Nazareth High School. I 83 ] The 1929 Comet ALUMNI The Alumni Association D V FAR the oldest organization connected with Nazareth High School is the Alumni Association. It has shown great interest in the school by annually pre- senting prizes to those students excelling in chosen fields of activity. Every June the members of the association assemble for a dinner dance, at which they welcome the graduating class as new members. At this time the officers for the ensuing year are elected. The officers during the past year are: President. Roslyn Fortuin; Secretary-Treasurer, Mae Wunderly; Assistant Secretary-Treasurer, Arlene Heims. • ?

Shall someday hang in that famous hall. The class is again in an uproar. Beitel has humorously taken the floor. I ler hair was of a bright red hue. Twas Bussy with a heart true blue. Among us bashfulness is hard to be found, Yet some is present while Clewell's around. Dennis is talking and talking again; But just leave her go; you’ll get your chance then. “Ah! a hero on a golden steed”— These words from Dry in a dramatic lead. Ida George so sweet ami serene. Docs towards the artist’s lineage lean. Then here’s Haubekt whose thoughts far away. Dreams of a home in some future day. Helen Heckman shall always be noted For her music, to which she’s devoted. Who’s the innocent looking boy? It’s Johnson, but is lie really that coy? There’s a lot of baggage to be carried away; Get Jonsie’s Ford—there’ll be no delay. Why all the laughter to be found? Has Kahi.er’s witticism again spread round? [ 90 1 The 1929 Comet Laudig is speaking as an orator would, You’ll hear her someday pleading a cause toward the good. Of all good natures no matter how kind. Like Lf.hry’s we’ll wager you'll never find. Among the girls there’s hut one athlete— Tis Lerchie who helps abandon defeat. We hear a voice so low and sedate It's McConigle, a humorous story to relate . W e have here a problem we know nothing about Go to Metzgar, we’ll be sure to find out. Who’s the big broad strapping lad? Michael, in football costume clad. We suddenly hear a laugh high and shrill It’s Rohny, laughing when none else will . Me looks so very calm and quiet, Yet Roth’s always in the center of riot. Scheetz so quiet and so studious Upon any subject never dubious. If only we all our own business would mind Like Serf ass does, no disturbance we’d find. The case calls for someone serious, yet jolly, Get Shimer and you’ve surely committed no folly. I lere’s a task which requires some time Go to Shooky she'll do it just fine. Stemy contains just bushels of pep A trait which we need for an enviable rep. Though Wolfe is one who is seldom heard He’d join us if anything funny occurred. Wunderly shall always in our memory remain We know someday she’ll soar to artist’s fame.
