It leaves many parents and a few graduates under the impression that the diploma is the ticket of admission to the main performance, as well as to all side shows, of life. Many a holder of such a ticket has learned to his sorrow that the world refuses to accept the ticket on its face value. The holder of it must prove that he is entitled to it. As representatives of the class of 1931. you owe an obligation to Nazareth High School in particular, and to society in general, to make good. What that service is going to be depends upon the skill that you have acquired, the ideals that you have fostered, and the habits of work that you have cultivated. You are particularly fortunate in launching out at a time when the waves are running high and when there are many currents and cross currents. It will not be necessary for you to be disillusioned—you know the perils of the storm and will enjoy the calm all the more. We congratulate you, the class of 1931, upon the progress that you have made and welcome you to the ranks of those who never quit learning and working. The world needs the idealism of youth to leaven the conservatism of age. May each of you contribute something constructive to the betterment of society! Howard E. Shimer, Pres.

And then you fount! that there was more to this Great world than just your own small house; You learned to know the boy from 'cross the tracks. And where to find the biggest fish. A year Or two saw you a little further on. Your lessons were a bit more difficult To learn, and how to dab a girl's pigtail— Uncaught—with ink. seemed ever so much more The thing to do than study all about Conjunctions, fractions, alphabets and such. When you, with helpful shoves and boosts from home. Reached higher place within the class, you asked Yourself just why you had to go to school— The freedom of the world was so much more Attractive than the bench. Rut on you went With whines and groans, and learned meanwhile to spit A wicked ball; this art was paramount Within your mind, as you remember well. At last, the highest class attained, you stopped To wonder what you’d done to face the fact That now at length, your freedom near at hand. You wanted more to stay in school and learn What you had once considered trash. But no! Through twelve long years you wasted time, and all You studied was enough to pass you through. So as reward you go just half-prepared From out the frying pan into the fire! —Ralph Slonaker, 31. [ 12 ] frWf- -NAZARETN- - -M ADMINISTRATION ft.

A. in Nazareth is now an established fact after functioning actively since 1927. Before continuing, perhaps it would be well to define it. The Parent- Teacher Association is an organization which seeks to interest parents in the school- life of their children, and to enable teachers to know the home life of their pupils— in order that the mental, physical, and moral life of the child may be understood and wisely developed. Through its work in bringing about better understanding and cooperation between parents and teachers, the Nazareth branch of this National Organization, has amply justified its existence. Officers: Mr. Robert Neumeyer. Pres.; Miss Florence Nicholas, Vice-Pres.; Mrs. Wilmer Heyer. Sec. Mrs. Russel Hangen, Treas.; Miss Helen Smith, Chair- man of Program Committee; Mrs. U. S. Wirebach, Chairman of Publicity Com- mittee; Mrs. Oscar Brong, Chairman of Ways and Means Committee; Mrs. Warren Breinig, Chairman of Membership Committee.

Some came from this town of Nazareth; others came from outlying districts. All of us were un- accustomed to the place, hut we were imbued with the spirit to act. The path became narrower and the work became harder. Some were lost by the wayside, due to various causes. In our Sophomore year we again continued our course, the goal being Know- ledge. We enlivened the year with a Hallowe’en party, which was only a beginn- ing of the good times coming. On January 25, 1929, a member of our class, Ralph Rohn, who gave fair promise to pass with us through the gateway of graduation, was taken from us by death. I le was a good student and a true friend. Our third year was the scene of harder tasks and more social affairs. In December we entertained the Seniors at a reception, as a mark of esteem and good fellowship and to uphold old customs. This year the class purchased rings of onyx and gold. Our Senior year was the crowning year of our achievement. Though we had many hard tasks, all was not work. The first social event was a Hallowe’en party in the gym of the Whitfield building. In March, the Juniors entertained us at a pleasant party. Many of our class attended, and all seemed to enjoy themselves thoroughly. We published our year book, the Comet”, which we have endeavored to make a success. This was made possible with the cooperation of the members of the class of 31”, the students of Senior High and Junior High, and the friends of our class. We wish to express our hearty appreciation to all who helped the cause along. For four years we have sojourned in this land of learning. Now each must go in a separate way to lands of which we know nothing. Even though we. the class of 1931. pass through the narrow portals of graduation and our class be scat- tered. our history shall not end. For whatever we may nobly say. or do, we shall with pride and honor add to the annals of this class. Marion Kern.

ARTHUR BECK “Art” Although not interested in law “Art” loves to talk and does most of the time, regardless of audience or impor- tance of the subject. Wisecracks are his favorite diver- sion, but there is a great deal of competition in this field and honors are difficult to attain. We have no idea what Arthur wants to do, but to his highest hopes we add our backing and best wishes. Football (3); Science Club (4); Glee Club (3) (4); Operetta (3); Assistant Baseball Manager (3).

As a result, both faculty and students are afforded entertainment free of charge. The football team missed him this year, for he was a big asset to last year's combination. Clayton has real ability, but except for the acting, it is seldom used. We do believe, however that upon the application of his talents he would achieve success.

But not all her time is devoted to lessons for she often stars in Tatamy plays. Keep up the good work. Mary and you can't fail to succeed in life. Glee Club (2); Class Basketball (3): Commercial Club (3), Treasurer (4). VERNA BERGER “Verna” In spite of her frequent absences from school. Verna manages to keep abreast of her class work. It would take a mathematician to estimate the amount of money she spends burning the midnight oil.” We wonder what attraction Wind Gap holds for this lass. Maybe we’ll find out some day. May luck be yours, Verna. Commercial Club (3) (4). I 23 1 JHHMhNAZARET H-t-JHM TONY BOLAS “Tubby” This most popular young mail was co-captain of our fcotball team this fall, and if he tackles the future as he did certain Wilson players there can be no doubt as to the outcome. In spite of Tony's absence from the first seven games he made up for that in the Wilson game and during basketball season. His love for Wilson is bound- less? Ask him. We offer Tony our most sincere wishes for success and happiness. Glee Club (1) (2) (3) (4); Operetta (1) (3); Basketball (3) (4). Sub.

GEORGE BRONG “Brongic George is president of the class, and that alone might serve as a recommendation, for it takes persever- ence and patience to hold that office. In addition, he is a good student and although not athletically inclined, is a good booster. George is ambitious and is a hard worker, and these assets are desirable anywhere. We haven’t the least doubt of the results. Football Sub. (2); Treasurer Athletic Association (4); Class President (4); Student Council (4). EDWARD CHRISTMAN “Ed” This popular young fellow's activities are varied and extensive; probably because he is always so sincere in his efforts to make every undertaking a success. He was captain of the basketball team and quarterback on the football team, besides helping in work on the Comet. “Ed” is popular with a certain little blond who takes up a good deal of his time.

Since this is the type of work she intends to follow, we can easily see in her, material for a good instructor. As far as we are able to ascertain canoeing seems to be her chief sport.

If Perman doesn't turn out to be a reformer he’ll make a good actor. We wish you all the success in the world, Moxie.” Baseball (3), Var. (4); Football Sub.

Despite that, Ollie has always been an ardent supporter of the school. Although he did not make any varsity teams his efforts put him on the class basketball team. We do not know what “Ollie” expects to do after graduating, but we predict for him a career crowned with success. Good luck, Ollie”.

It seems that he is interested mainly in woodworking and spends a good deal of his time in the shop, for school activities do not interest him. With girls or boys “Bill always seems to be uneasy, but we are sure that he'll outgrow that. Best regards and wishes from all of us. Football Squad (2); Science Club (4). MARION KERN “Kernie” At one time her highest ambition was to be able to drive, now it is to have the car all of the time. Marion's love of Chemistry has been a constant source of astonish- ment and entertainment to the class. Marion has been a big help as Business Manager of the Comet and may she be just as big a help to some young fellow in the future.

Frank is an excellent bluffer in a small way—a ery small way.

What have you to offer a millionaire bored with time and money? Something novel, different from any present interest, something that will make me more of a human and less of a fossil.” “Umph—yes, sir—quite so, sir. Well, if money is no object, sir—” ‘ There you go again, everlastingly talking about money—money. Every- one is money mad. Will I ever find anyone interested in anything other than dol- lars and cents? On the contrary, Jason, I want to get rid of my money without throwing it into the paw of some greedy rascal. Now it’s up to you to find some novel employment for a millionaire dying of ennui, who seriously wants to avoid making money. I’ve been a regular Midas, as it is. Years ago 1 gave a fellow enough capital to go prospecting for gold in South Africa. Last evening I got a wire telling me that he had discovered an unusually rich deposit of anthracite, and he wanted me to organize a company to mine it. Last year I gave a relative finan- cial aid. Last week he died and left me another fortune. If I don’t find some in- terests other than money, I shall go to South Africa and dig coal free of charge.” “But, sir, charity will take all the money you can give; as to occupying your mind, that’s something different.” “Charity, Jason—never—I’ve already given enough to charity to make all the workers wealthy and the subjects bums. No. Jason, something more modern please.” (Phone rings—Jason answers) Yes sir. I believe so, sir. I’ll ask him. (Aside) Mr. Uhler wishes to call this evening, sir. (At the telephone) Yes sir, this evening will do very well. sir. (Hanging up receiver) Mr. Uhler is an old class- mate of yours, I believe?” “What a coincidence Jason, He's the fellow I financed in the South African coal enterprise—I hope he is not presenting me with another fortune. Mr. Irvin Uhler is vice-president of Sears Roebuck now.” “Ah! Sir, I have an idea. Wouldn’t you like to see all of your old class- mates again, sir?” I 41 ] tttt NAZARETH tt “Bravo, Jason, just the thing, l ook up that 1931 yearbook in the library, make complete list of the names and hand it over to Judd; he'll get the addresses in a short time, and then after a flying visit to each friend of those happy days, we ll write a book called “The Class of 1931 Twenty Years Later!” The necessary information was in my hands five days after the above con- versation took place, and on the seventh day I had started on that alluring and magnificent quest—the search for lost friends. Six hours after leaving San Diego, we arrived in Nazareth. Baffled by the complete change in the aspect of the town we turned to a stranger alighting from a plane. “Pardon me, sir, but could you------Well, if it isn't James Henry himself! Well, old man, how are you and what takes up your lime?” “Hello, yourself. I'm a bit fagged. Running for governor is my job at present. Opposition is pretty stiff. I’ll tell you. What are you doing here? Last I heard you were in California.” “Right O, but now I’m hunting up old friends, members of the Class of '31. What an idea! Say, I'll help you myself. Always was interested in what became of certain members of our class. Might help my campaign, too. I am in contact with all of those who have stayed near Nazareth.” It would take too much time and space to describe our meeting with each individual, so I’ll set down the facts as we found them. We traveled about Nazareth for three days, and saw many objects of inter- est including the high school, which boasted an enrollment of two thousand stud- ents. Jim seemed to know everyone, so it was an easy matter to meet all of those in Nazareth personally and to compile the following information. William Karch, we found, was manager and owner of a new planing mill located in Nazareth.----Fay Dietz had taken over the management of her father’s studios which had been enlarged considerable. Miriam Reimer was an athletic director at Swarthmore until she resigned to found a shool for girls. Grace Remaly is now a prima donna and is associated with the Metropolitan Opera Company. Arthur Beck became a traveling salesman for the Nazareth Waist Mill which is owned jointly by Sterling Koch and Oliver Kahler. [ 42 ] fHMhNAZARCT N-t-HM Gilbert Hellick is our aeronautical engineer in the Messinger Aviation Cor- poration. Elwood Ginther. we found, is an attorney in Reno where David Grim pre- sides as Judge of the Divorce Court. Mr. Hughes, a radical, has just been defeated in his campaign for Senator of Pennsylvania by Mr. Wolfe, a conservative. Mr Charles Ruth, publicity manager for the Hughes campaign, says that he will make another attempt at the next election. Harold Simons is owner and manager of a Wyoming cattle ranch where he raises prize cattle for exhibition in the east. Tony Bolas before leaving College had been named for the All-American football team for three years. He is now a bond salesman associated with Halsey Stewart Co. Bill Kiefer and Paul Bayda were both coaching football, Paul at Wisconsin and Bill at Michigan. Both were married. —Clayton Beck was Federal Prohibi- tion Agent located in Washington. —Carl Johnson was an explorer and big game hunter. Lately he has been working in Africa and Central Asia. —George Brong likewise was an explorer but of a different type; he was employed in the Westing- house research laboratory, is married and located in Pittsburgh. —In Philadel- phia one of our agents discovered Jerome Angert who was practising Medicine un- til he became the city health commissioner. —Ralph Slonaker who had always aspired to become a writer, became Editor of the New York Times. At present however, he is in China attempting to establish a news syndicate. —The most difficult person to locate was James Peppel whom we found in a small town in the northern part of Manitoba. —He has charge of the forestry department of the Canadian Government. —Frank Radcliffe has become a missionary and at present is working in Siam. Mabel Lutz and Beatrice Grubb are teaching in the new Pen Argyl High School. John Freeman was manager and coach of the New York Yankees who have been the World Champions for seven consecutive seasons. —Richard Schubert and Peter Yeisley owned an airline between Boston. New York, and Chicago. Fred Uhler was a pharmacist and at present owns a chain of Drug Stores throughout the East. Edward Smart owned a firm engaged in the manufacturing of sporting goods and specializing in the making of fine fishing tackle. [ 43 i JMHMbNAZARET IM-JMM Previous to her marriage Eleanor Gano had been principal of Nazareth High School. Anna Wunderly was married and living in Pen Argyl. Emmett Young had an airplane agency and was active in securing an air- port for Nazareth. Robert RulofT was a research chemist in the Nazareth laboratories of Laudig and Christman, manufacturing chemists. All three were married and living in Nazareth. Kathryn Engle was nurse in the Nazareth Hospital until she married one of the members of the firm mentioned above. Madeline Saeger likewise had been a nurse in this hospital, but later became sole owner of a dress-making establishment in Chicago. Thelma Norris had an art studio in New York and had written books on art. J Marion Kern also had a studio, but it was a music studio—The Kern Studio of Organs, 62nd. and Broadway. Grace Williamson after working for Dow. Jones and Co. for several years became an actress. Now, she is married and living in Paris. Gladys Walker was a nurse in the Nazareth Hospital until her marriage to the afore mentioned vice-president of Sears Roebuck and Co. Louis Wunderly had established a furniture factory at Nazareth and be- came prominent as a manufacturer of fine furniture. Mary Berger became popular a few years ago as a novelist and has since written several best-sellers. Evelyn Metz was married several years ago. Before her marriage she was a private secretary. Verna Berger was a stenographer in the office of a steamship company. —Beatrice Rundle was a private secretary to a member of the president’s cabinet. She married him later. Salome Wolfe was married and living in Nazareth. She taught school sev- eral years before her marriage. After having secured this interesting history of the Class of Thirty- one. Jason and I resolved to put it into pamphlets and send them to the members of the class as a memory of that collection of individuals whom four years of association allowed us to know so well. And so endeth this prophecy which I sincerely hope may become more than a mere prophecy.

Our number has dwindled still more and there are a mere forty remaining for the final days of the journey. Despite our number we may be proud to say that we have been one of the most generous contributors to the athletic, musical, and literary activities. Our class also has the distinction of containing some of the best salesmen and sales- women in the school; a fact made manifest by the magazine drive. Our members have also been active in making the initial year of the Blue and White Standard a successful one. After the custom of all classes we chose our rings and pins during the first semester of this year, our Junior year. The choice was finally decided upon after rather heated discussions. Then began the watchful waiting until we could proudly wear our new class insignias. We sought an addition to our treasury by selling candy to the rooters at the basketball games. On March twenty-sixth we entertained the Seniors in the event which dedicated our new gymnasium. Springtide colors gaily decorated the scene while the music for the occasion was rendered by the Arcadians. With fond memories of a pleasantly spent Junior year and with firm resolutions to make ourselves a credit to our Alma Mater, we enter upon our Senior year.

Soon after the migration, the duties and activities of the past class dawned upon us. We immediately organized, and 'twas only a matter ol time until our activities began. Our first problem was to choose a faculty advisor for the ensuing year. And at our first meeting, Mr. Shekletski was elected to fill the position. The month of October soon arrived. We were then confronted with the Hallowe’en Party which is an annual affair. Because of the delay in the comple- tion of our High School gym. it was decided to be held in the Junior High School gymnasium. In spite of the handicap, an enjoyable time was had by all who at- tended, and the party was a great success. Our next problem was that of deciding upon the felt goods, such as emblems and pennants. The members of the class responded nearly 100 per cent to the pur- chase of some sort of felt; and it was only a matter of days when the Sophomore colors adorned the dress of the members and walls of their homes. Our last activity of the year was the annual hike to Henry’s dam. However, these are not the only activities in which our class has participated. We have shared the honors with our sister classes in other school activities as base- ball. football, basketball and debating. Likewise many of our classmates hold memberships in such clubs as Commercial, Latin, Dramatic, and Boys' and Girls’ Glee Clubs. Now that the present school term is nearing its end we are beginning to ex- tend our thoughts toward the next advance. We look upon our old shoes with scorn and are ready to cast them aside for the future Sophomore Class. We hope that they encounter in them as great a success as We. We are very sorry, but less worn shoes have been offered to us. May they serve us better than those abandoned. Anna Engle. Historian. [ 53 ] Class Roll — c — H-H-M Gracf. Allen.............

Naturally, we felt very strange but the upperclassmen did all they could to make us feel welcome. In due time our class was organized, and Miss Weikel was chosen faculty ad- visor. To become better acquainted we had a Hallowe'en Party in the Junior I ligh Gym. A large number attended in costume. The judges had difficulty in deciding who deserved the prizes; all were so cleverly dressed. By mid-term many of our members were participating in extra curricular activities such as Athletics, Musical Organizations, Debating and other Clubs. In March, members of the class decided to purchase pins to distinquish us as members of the class of “34”. Two months later the Freshman class presented to the High School a picture entitled “The Flying Cloud” by Patterson.

It was in September 1024. that the partially de- partmentalized seventh and eighth grades were combined into one school and housed in the old building on North Broad Street which had been vacated by the high school the previous year. The school at that time consisted of 108 pupils and three teachers. The course of study was the conventional grammer school course unenriched by art. music, sewing, industrial arts, physical education, or any extra-curricular activities. At this time. too. began the enrichment of the program of studies. A start in this direction had been made the previous year when a supervisor of music was engaged on a part time basis in co-operation with Wilson borough. The following year a full time supervisor was employed. A larger stride forward was made in 1024 with the introduction of art and sewing for the benefit of the girls and of industrial arts and mechanical drawing for the boys. Physical education was introduced in 1926 with one physical director serving both boys and girls. This arrangement lasted for a period of three years. In 1929. a physical directress was added to the corps to take charge of the girls’ activities. As a result of this enriched program of studies, pupils remained in school for a longer period, and this, with the normal increase in enrollment, soon brought about a decidedly crowded condition. Accommodations were inadequate and poorly adapted for the kind of work to be done. The next step in this development was an addition to the comparatively new High School building. Such an addition had. of course, been foreseen at an earlier date as the next logical step in the building program of the district. The school board in 1929 passed a resolution authorizing a bond issue of $ 130,000 for this purpose, which was approved by the electors at the general election in November. Building operations were begun early the following spring and were completed in March, 1931. On Tuesday morning. April 7, 1031. a happy, expectant lot of children, 182 in number, marched into their new home. The final step in the development of the school will be taken next fall when the ninth grade will be added to complete the junior unit of the secondary school. The comparatively slow growth and development of the school has been a source of constant expectation and inspiration to both pupils and teachers. Both alike sensed the spirit of growth and experienced the satisfaction of being builders. 14 [ 61 ] HMHf-NAZARET H-M-JH I 65 ] I t NAZARET HS t t Back row: Tripp. Wolfe. Brong, Miss Nicholas.

The question debated was: Resolved. “That the Chain Store system is detrimental to the best interests of the American public.” As in previous encounters the result was a tie. the Affirmative teams of each school defeating their opponents. The Affirmative team was composed of Margaret Seyfried, Kathryn Saylor, Harold Stout. Captain: Kathryn Seigfried, alternate. Maybelle llappel.

June 12. the class of 1931 presented “Skidding,” a delight- ful comedy in three acts. It was given in the high school auditorium under the direction of Miss Nicholas, who was greatly commended for her good work. The play met with great success, the auditorium being filled to its capacity. “Skidding” gives us a fresh, sincere picture of American family life showing Marion Hardy, a modern college girl who falls in love with Wayne Trenton just as a career is opening up to her. and the difficulties she has in adjusting her romance. Then, there are the two pretty young daughters who chose to marry before they finished their education and want to “come home to Mother” at the first sign of trouble. Mother Hardy is so upset at the modern tendencies of her WHHHM 9 3 [ 72 ] NMMhNAZARET M-M-t daughters that she goes on a strike in order to straighten out her family. Young Andy Hardy is an adorable adolescent lad with his first “case”—a typical Booth Tarkington part. He keeps the audience in a gale of merriment with his humorous observances. Grandpa Hardy touches the heart with his absent-mindedness and his reminiscences about Grandma; and the white satin slippers he makes for Marion to be married in. have a great deal to do with straightening out her love affair. Judge Hardy is the dignified father, who has a great amount of trouble getting nominated to the Supreme Court. Mr. Stubbins is the politician who aids the Judge in his campaign. Aunt Milly has a conspicuous part in the play. She is a lovable school teacher, a sister of Mrs. Hardy. Milly has that amused man- ner of speaking which belongs to a keen but tolerant observer of human nature. Humor is blended with pathos and a deliciously garnished philosophy makes “Skidding” more significant than the average comedy. It is life. THE CAST Aunt Milly .......................

[ 73 ] JHHMf-NAZARET Hit t t Romani Hodierni — c — OUR name “Romani Hodierni” or “Romans of Today” characterizes our organization in a brief way. To explain further, however, the purpose of our club is to provide Latin students with opportunity for pleasurable learning of much about the Romans and their civilization. On ordinary occasions, our program usually consists of: roll call, answered by the word “Adsum”, followed by one or two talks by the members on such topics as: “Pirates in Antiquity” or Some Roman Recipes.” Then, all join in playing a ganu. sometimes one of those played by the Romans, at other times, one invented by a “Modern Roman” as—The Living Word Contest, in which two teams, each member of which represents a letter of the alphabet, compete in trying to form first a given word. Finally, a rousing Latin song, either one dignified by centuries of student singing—as “Sntegei Vitae”, or a rollicking parody translated into Latin as: “Where. Oh. Where is My Little Dog Gone?” or Yankee Doodle.” On holidays, we have special programs. On Hallowe’en, we had Roman auguries and fortunes told on leaves. In January, our New Year program in- cluded an explanation of the origin of the names of the months and our calendar. Of course, we heard the story of Cupid and Psyche on St. Valentine's Day. and exchanged Latin Valentines. The chief event on our roster was the celebration of the Saturalia. the Roman holiday corresponding to our Christmas. At this party, in December, we exchanged gifts according to the classic custom and ate food as it was made 2000 years ago. Annual Hike — c — EARLY Saturday, October nth, about fifty students and three members of the faculty started for Saylor’s Lake. A bus was used as far as Wind Gap and from there the annual “trek” was made to the Lake. Light hearts, plenty of pep. and occasional “lifts” made a short cut of a long trail so that we were much surprised at our speedy arrival. Few could resist the call of the Lake and soon a group of swimmers cut through the water, while others took to the boats. WHHMH9 5 l-t-t-t-t-t [ 74 1 M4HFNAZARET H-t-JMM The climax of the picnic came with the call to lunch. Oh, what fun! With good appetites, good eats, good jokes, and laughter we gathered at the tables set out along the Lake. After lunch a little golf, a ramble or two. and too soon, the signal to return to the trail, homeward bound. A good time? Well. m-m. what have I been saying? Junior-Senior Reception — c — THE long-awaited social event of the season, the Junior-Senior Reception, finally arrived with March twenty-sixth, and was held in the new gymnasium. The spacious, uniquely decorated gym. illuminated with soft vari-colored lights, together with the charmingly-attired girls, created an atmosphere that will never be forgotten by those present. Dancing and cards provided the activities for the evening. Music was furnished by the “Arcadians” of Easton, while Spotlight and Lucky Number novelties added variety to the dancing. Refreshments were served during intermission, after which activities con- tinued until midnight. The Alumni Association — c — nPHE purpose of the Alumni Association is to foster co-operative relations be- tween the present, and the graduate members of the Nazareth High School. The annual banquet of the Association is held in June at which time the graduating class is admitted into membership. The officers of the Association are: Pres.. A. R. Snyder; Sec. and Treas., Kathryn Werkheiser; Asst. Sec. and Treas., Frances Roth. The Association furnishes added incentive to the students to do good work by giving awards for the best work in various departments.

Citizenship Prize: Vincent Sandercock, Ethel Leh Athletic Prize: Vincent Sandercock. Florence Kahler The National Forensic League — c — THE purpose of the National Forensic League is to encourage more students to take part in interscholastic debate and oratory. It endeavors constantly to advance the standards of excellence so that greater skill will be developed among the participants and finer relations exist in these competitive events. I'he National Forensic League is built upon two principles: first, the development of student interest; second, the use of the most attractive materials obtainable. Besides the members of this organization in the school just now, there have been three new names added to the list, making a total of six. 'I'he group includes Miss Florence Nicholas, Walter Peters, Earl Laudig, Margaret Seyfried, Harold Stout, and Kathryn Saylor. Science Club — c — AT the beginning of the second semester a Science Club was organized under the direction of Mr. Shekletski. Science instructor. Its purpose was that of creating interest in scientific work of all types, particularly in conjunction with class work. Due to the late organization of the club, little has been accom- plished. It has, however, sponsored a trip to a nearby cement mill, where much of interest was observed. We look forward to an extension of its activities next year. 1931 11 tt [ 76 ] HHMhNAZARETH-t-HM Spring Concert — c — IN observance of National Music Week a concert was given on May 15, 1931 by the Glee Clubs and the Orchestra of the High School. A program of orchestral selections, four part choruses, vocal quartets, and instrumental numbers was enjoyed. An added feature was the Interlude “Johnny Schmoker”. by the Junior Boys’ Glee Club. The Saturnalian Feast — C — AN attractive and original party was held by the Romani Hodierni Club on December 23, 1930. in the Junior High School Gymnasium. A King presided over the entertainment which included games and dancing. The decorations were in keeping with the Christmas spirit, and the refresh- ments were in keeping also with the custom of the Saturnalian Feast. Freshmen Hallowe’en Party — c — THE Freshmen of Nazareth High School held a Hallowe'en Party October 30, 1930 in the Junior High School Gymnasium. A Grand March started the evening’s entertainment. The prizes for the prettiest costumes were awarded to Freeda Scheetz and Naomi Herzing, and for the funniest to Richard Michael. Games were followed by dancing. The evening was then concluded with serving of refreshments. 3 l-t tit [ 77 ] HHhNAZARETIM-JM- Christmas Caroling — C — ON Christmas eve about seventy-five members of the Boys' and Girls’ Glee Clubs accompanied by a brass quartet repeated the yearly custom of caroling on the main streets of our town. The jaunt started at nine-thirty and ended at ten forty-five. Sophomore Hallowe’en Party — C — THE Junior High Gymnasium was the scene of a Hallowe’en Party sponsored by the Sophomore Class of Nazareth High School on October 31. The guests found the gymnasium decorated in keeping with the Hallowe’en spirit. An important feature of the evening was the Grand March. The judges awarded the prizes for costumes to: Anna Engle, the prettiest: Alberta Hearn, the most original; and George Oswald, the funniest. The remainder of the evening was spent in playing games and dancing, after which refreshments were served. Senior Hallowe’en Party — c — A HALLOWE’EN Party was given by the Senior Class October 28. to which the Faculty, and several of the lower classmen were invited. Members of the Faculty served as judges and awarded prizes for costumes to the following: Gladys Walker, prettiest; Evelyn Metz, most original; and Anna Wunderly, funniest. The evening’s entertainment consisted of games and dancing. Luncheon was served cafeteria style. WHHHH 9 5 iHHHHHt [ 78 ] ATHLETICS HHf-NAZARETH-S-JHM Hiiiwntt 1 1 JHHMf-NAZARET h 4-t11 ALTHOUGH not the most successful Nazareth High has had, our football season was fairly prosperous, considering the obstacles encountered and the material at hand. The Coplay game, the first, was a decided victory for Nazareth. Our team found it fairly easy to score, and did so three times, making the final score it) to o. A scrappy, well trained, and very much improved Washington team took Nazareth by storm and went home with a 13 to o victory. The following week our combination found no difficulty at all in driving a fighting Quakertown team about the field, but found considerable trouble in scoring. The final score stood at 6 to o in our favor. Pen Argyl succeeded in avenging last year’s defeat at our hands by showing force enough in the first quarter to score thirteen points. From the second quarter on Nazareth outplayed the opponents but was able to score only seven points, the score being 13 to 7 in favor of Pen Argyl. Catasauqua defeated us most disastrously in our fifth game by a very uneven score of 45 to o. We met an unusually strong aggregation when it was at its best, and at a time when certain players of ours were still suffering from the Pen Argyl game. Bangor made a valiant attempt to emulate Pen Argyl. but Nazareth displayed a much better brand of defensive football in this game. Neither team scored, but both teams came very close to it. After shoving the Northampton team around in the mud for two quarters we were compelled to take a 6 to o defeat due to a fumble which rolled across our goal where it was recovered by Northampton. The Wilson cheers began with a call for a touchdown and ended with a plea to hold that line. Nazareth staged a comeback in this game which surprised even the Nazareth fans. A Nazareth offensive in the fourth quarter put the ball on the Wilson four yard line with four downs to take it across. The game ended before the teams could line up. The score—o to o. During the entire season the opponents scored seventy-seven points to Nazareth’s thirty-two. However, we should like to call attention to the fact that more than half of the opponent’s points were amassed in a single game, otherwise the totals stood exactly even, thirty-two each.

Baseball Season of 1930 — c— THERE was a rumor about, last year, that the baseball season would be a blue one because of the number of varsity men who graduated the preceding June. But (Loach Leh, undaunted, moulded his available material into a team capable of winning the championship of the Lehigh-Northampton Interscholastic League, with a record of nine wins and one defeat. This one defeat, by the way. was the single smirch on an otherwise markless record of three unbeaten years of ball. It happened at the hands,of Wilson, on our home field, with a score of 13 to 10; and later, in retaliation, we beat this same team. 13 to 1, to win League title. At the time of this writing the outlook for the season of 1931 is a bright one, only three varsity members of last years diamond nine having been graduated: Sandercock. Smith and Howell. Though these men are probably missed by the coach, there is plenty of material to select from. At present we are tied for first place in the League, with four wins and one defeat. i 90 ] MHh NAZARETH- - - - Baseball Scores 1930 — C — Naz. Opnts.

This signal is very good: it has been known to net a gain of .000075 of an inch. 30— 6247891258—after signal is called the team is placed on the line in squads of eight while the backs disguise themselves. The ball is passed to the best disguised of the backs who in turn throws the ball into the stands. 99-4-6-8-12—Ball is kept by center who sits on it while the rest of the team rushes off to the lockerroom. This is not a great ground gainer, but is very disconcerting to the op- ponents particularly when they have been out late the night before.

Procedure—(a) Pour about 50 cc of gasoline into the flask and drop a lighted match into it. Phis is to see if it will support combustion. Does it? Mow high did it raise you? Record distance in millimeters. Next take a lighted splint and move it over an open vessel of gasoline. See how close you can come to it without igniting it. Mark distance and record in note book. (b) Note physical properties of dynamite. Pound a small piece into a flat shape; then lay it on the floor and jump on it. Now ask the instructor for an axe. and chop the stick of dynamite into pieces one millimeter in length (no longer or results will Ik inaccurate). Now place the piece of dynamite into a 250 cc flask and add 100 cc of gasoline and 100 cc of nitro-giycerine. Move a lighted match around the bottom of the beaker to sec that there is no leak in it. If you are still in good health, boil the contents for 15 minutes and run the residue through a sieve. After the blood has been mopped up, and the remains of fellow-workers have been taken to the morgue, clean up your desk, and from your results calculate the amount of dynamite necessary to blow the eyebrows off of a mosquito. “Next.” “Who, me?” “Yessir.” “Where born?” “Russia.” “What part?” “All of me.” “Why did you leave Russia?” “I couldn't bring it with me.” “Where were your forefathers from?” 1 only had one father.” “Your business?” “Rotten.” “Where is Washington?” “He’s dead.” I mean the capital of the United States?” “They loaned it all to Europe.” “Now, do you promise to support the constitution?” “Me?

Universal Gas and Oil Company Distributors of Continental Oil Company Products [ill] Founded on an Ideal— a business that spans two continents. Twenty-eight years ago a group of men conceived the idea from which, in 1019. grew the International ('ement System, of which the Lone Star Cement Company Pennsylvania, with its Nazareth mill, is a part. This idea is expressed in manufacturing — by the pro- duction of cement of outstanding quality day in and day out; in merchandising — by a policy that is summarized in the Lone Star Code, “to treat every customer as though both buyer and seller were members of the same organiza- tion.” Founded on this ideal of quality and service, the Inter- national System has grown from a small local mill to a chain of mills that spans two continents. The Nazareth mill is one of the 13 mills in the International System. These mills have a total annual capacity of 21.000,000 barrels of Lone Star Cement.

EALTH is the most important thing in the W M world. It is the glorious possession of youth. 1_____W With health comes strength to do your work efficiently. W ithout health everything else is impossible, yet it usually is not appreciated until after it is lost. Lost health means lost time. Lost time means less income and lower standards of living. Health maintained is preferred to health regained. Everyone can stay on the Road to Health and Strength by guarding habits of food and drink. Form the good habit of drinking MILK every day. It is the perfect food and perfect drink. But it must be clean milk from healthy cows. Willowdale Grade A Raw Milk is from pure bred regis- tered Guernsey cows which are tuberculin tested under state and federal supervision. This insures healthy milk while sanitary housing and bottling conditions insure clean milk.
