Q . ii 011th ff ir if if FOREWORD To every Senior his yearbook should be his most prized possession, holding for him in the years to come the memories of his high school days. But the many activities of an up-to-date high school must be presented in such a manner that they will live as memories when all other connections with the high school have gone by. With this thought in mind the editors of the 1940 Oil Can have chosen the novel theme of the producing and showing of motion pictures to portray the school life of the class of 1940. It must be rmembered that QVQCTSOIIS and plags depicted in thihook arc not fictitious, and any similarity to persons living or otherwise is purely inten- tional. C55 HERBERT C. COLEMAN 6 DEDI CATIO We would dedicate our 1940 edition of the Oil Can to the man who has Worked so untiringly and devotedly for the present class, and spent hours upon hours of precious time and effort not only for the betterment of the Class of 1940, but. for many other classes in the past. He has always been the same helpful, guiding light in the eyes of every one associated with him. With never a cross word, his criticisms have always been in a constructive form-and so with utmost appreciation for his fine work and with greatest respect for him, We take this means of partially repaying him by dedicating this 1940 Oil Can to Mr. Herbert C.

During the year the members of the Student Council work hard to promote school activities and entertainment for the student body. Every Friday night during the football season whether it was cold or hot, rainy or clear the members of the Student Council labored diligently at the re- freshment stand to supply every one's needs. Through their tireless efforts they took in 3128 profit by selling candy, pop, and hot dogs. This money will go toward some practical use around school. Among other things that the Student Council did this year are the following projects: 1. Sponsoring student dances, 2. Sponsoring school movies, 3. Selling tickets for and ushering at plays and other social events, 4. Purchasing books for the Library, 5. Operating candy stand at the basketball games, 6. Purchasing two new flags for the school.

Another club of Oil City High School newly organized this year by Mr. James Smith is the Monday evening Camera Club which meets in room 205 at 3:45 every week. Film developing and printing were taught by Mr. Smith, and trick photography was explained by Robert Schultz, who was also in charge of the entertainment committee and responsible for the appearance of outside speakers at the weekly meetings. Among other things of interest to the camera fans was the construc- tion of their own dark room and the making of inexpensive box cameras. OFFICERS President ....... ..........................

The Club consisting of thirty members has given second year French students chance to glean more interesting material about France and the French language than may be had from a mere textbook. The singing of delightful songs occupied much of the time at these meetings. Among these familiar melodies were the majestic 'tMarseillaise',, the national anthem of France, L'A1ouette, Il etait un Bergere, and Frere Jacques. The pride of Le Cercle Francaise is the scenario of a play of the French novel La Tour de Monde . J The success of the varied programs paid worthy tribute to the advice of Miss Belle C. McCormick, French teacher. OFFICERS P1'9SideI1't .......... ..................... ....., B e tty lWcCray Vice President ...... ........... . lack Miller Seeretary .......... .....

Inspired by a thirst for a greater knowledge of science and enticed by a variety of interesting experiments, a number of students, who pro- pose to major in chemistry, wound their Way into the chemistry labor- atory every Thursday evening at seven-fifteen. Club meetings took on an Alladin atmosphere, when with one rub of the finger, members converted iron rust into boiling irony or with a twitch, transformed camphor into moth ballsg or with a final tug revo- lutionized fats for my lady's cosmetics. Equally awe inspiring to the chemist novice were the production of porcelain vases, combustion under water, experiments on liquid light, and the manufacture of explosives, the latter being so successful that the United States should have no fear in ease of war. Mr. Otis Skinner ably conducted the meetings in a vigilant and careful manner.

A fine group of alert young minds and bodies- this is the Hi-Y. With many variations in the type of program presented, several excellent speakers featured the weekly programs. The Hi-Y continually en- deavored to fulfill their platform of clean speech, clean sports, clean schol- arship, and clean living. Mother and Son banquet, Faculty banquet, and girl-friend parties marked the social calendar of the year. OFFICERS President ............ ......

On November 1, 1939, the combined Senior High Girl Reserves Club together with the other organizations of the local Y.NV.C.A. were pre- sented With a home on Central Avenue. This, the gift of Mrs. George N. Reed, was formally dedicated on Sunday, March 10. After moving into their new home, the girls immediately realized the Wonderful opportunity afforded there for entertaining. To begin their program the girls revived the custom of bi-monthly dances on Saturday nights. Taking advantage of leap year the club entertained at an Easter Monday dinner dance. Other activities included a kindergarten party, tureen suppers, a Mother-Daughter banquet, and a Senior class farewell party. OFFICERS President. .............. ............................

This club was under the supervision of Mr. James Smith. At the beginning of the year the boys were presented with a Ping Pong table and net by James Duncan. They hope to have enough money by the end of the year to purchase another table thus making it possible to play twice as many games during the year.

The Senior High Stage Force has always been known to produce excellent scenery for school plays, but this year they constructed a heretofore unprecedent- ed set which consisted of a balcony, a huge staircase, elaborate decorations, and Hflatst' towering thirty feet above the stage floor. Another notable piece of work was thc senior class play in which three en- tirely different sets were erected between acts in four minutes. g The Stage Force, under the direction of Mr. O. N. Skinner and Mr. James T ownley, has spent much time and patience in order to make our school plays a success, and they deserve all the praise that we can give them, Because of their excellent work, the boys received dark blue overalls to wear while working. l l M.

A rather agreeable type of work though, as the Business staff seemed to advocate by topping considerably their goal of 35700 worth of advertisements and 5800 worth of subscriptions. After the expenses of this publication are paid, the money remaining will go towards defraying the cost of band uniforms.

Deserving top honors for their outstanding achievements, the Oil City Senior High School band receives our award as one of the outstanding musical organizations of the school this year. The band also merits credit for promoting enthu- siasm at the football and basketball games with their lively marches. Our pride and joy is the fact that while they have only been organized two years, the band, under the excellent direction of Mr. Philip Runzo, defeated one of Senior's rivals, Sharon, to take first place in the Northwestern Music Contest. An- other outstanding fcature of the band is the new blue uniforms, which greatly add to their appearance. lVhile the band this year numbers eighty five pieces, next yearls will prove larger with one hundred seventy members.

Under Mr. Mitchell's pains- taking direction, the choir won first place in the northwestern contest held here in Oil City, and took second place in the state finals held at Harrisburg, being defeated by Lower Merion, the same school which de- feated A Cappella last year.

This should be taken as no proof of their inability, however, for the girls comprise one of the best girls' groups to ever represent Senior. The invaluable knowledge and training they received during their classes have made this congenial group one of the most successful of the music clubs.

Their talent has been developed to the highest degree. This they proved by returning from Harrisburg as first place Winners in both singing and sight reading and rated excellent in both.

Unfortunately the house is quarantined by the Board of Health, and all are forced to stay indoors including Auntie and Bella, who accidentally turns up. Matters are further complicated by the presence of a burglar, whose struggle to get food adds to the hilarity. Each one is alloted his share of the housework by Aunt Selina, who takes matters in hand. The complications are fast and furious, aided by Officer Flannigang but finally word is received that the alleged smallpox victim was really a victim of chickenpox.

High atop Baldpate Mountain, the action begins with the caretakers, Mr. and Mrs. Quimby, cleaning up pending the arrival of one William Hallowell Magee, an author. Upon his arrival the Quimbys present him with the Honly key to the inn and then depart-leaving him in solitude to fulfill a 35,000 wager to write a complete novel in twenty-four hours. His first interruption proves to be a millionaire's indispensible right- hand man, John Bland, who has come to deposit some 3200,000 in the safe of the inn. Proceedings brighten visibly when Mary Norton, an ace reporter, appears on the scene for a story of Magee's wager. Needless to say it is a case of love at first sight for the interviewer and her interviewee. The plot thickens beautifully as Myra Thornhill, a charming black- mailer, appears with designs on the 3l5200,000. The play ends with the clearing up of the mystery of the many keys, with Magee finishing his novel and thus winning the wager, with the bandits being captured, with Mary scooping all the other papers with her story on the arrests, and of course with Magee proposing to Mary.

This year's commencement play, Jane Eyre , one of Charlotte Bronte's outstanding novels, depicts the life of a shy, intense little orphan who takes the position of governess to Mr. Rochester's ward, Adele Varens. Mr. Rochester, who soon finds himself falling in love with Jane is a strange, unpredictable man. His moodiness is due to the fact that he is married to an insane woman whose identity has been long kept secret in a scrupulously concealed West Wing of Thornfield Hall, where most of the action takes place. This secret is revealed on the very day of his projected marriage to Jane. Years afterwards the lovers are reunited. The play was under the direction of Miss Rebecca McAtee.

The4Broadcast this year was a great success, placing in the Senior Class treasury over 3200 profit which was taken in at the three performances. A varied program containing two skits, a tumbling act, a dance team, two bands, several soloists, and several novelties was presented in two afternoon performances for students and one evening performance for adults. The program was very expertly handled by Mr. F. LaMonte Lewis, who acted as Master of Ceremonies. Participants in the program were chosen from a large group of con- testants from the two junior high schools and from Senior High School. Three prizes were awarded to the best groups at the close of the evening performance. AMATEUR BRCADCAST c 95 u ' wr Sports Reel ir ir if ir ir ir ir ir ir ir , iq' ,, 'N e..x A: 3.

These four persons are John Williams and Jean Sherick who graduate this year, and Jim Roess and Eleanor Fitch, who remain to instruct next year's rookies. Jolm and Jean round out two years of faithful service while Jim and Eleanor still have another year to do honor to their positions. These four cheerleaders certainly should be commended for their fine work in building up school spirit and keeping it built up.

Had it not been for a heart breaking one point defeat to Meadville the Oilers would have broken even with at .500 average. As it was they won four and lost six out ol' at possible ten. The Ferrareinen were outweighed in every genie exeept one. Two new teams added to this year's schedule were Erie East, si niighty group of warriors who trouneed us 21-0 and llnr- Braelc Union who defeated the Oilers 12-O. With the fine showing by the Reserves, Lincoln and South inueh better 120211115 can be expected in the future. OT qioop ,R. 3 5 .L .1 SCORES Oil City Opponent September 8 ..........,K..

Breaking slightly over even with 10 victories and 8 defeats the Oil City Basketball squad greatly ex- ceeded pre-season expectations. With only one returning letterinan and three others of any experience to speak of, Coach Wells didnyt have much to work with. There were thrills and heartaches as the Oilers leaped froni defeat in the first league fray to a tie for first place in the last. A few of the highlights of the season were a one point victory over Franklin, an overtiine session with Titusville, and the night the reserves shined,' by trouncing DuBois. The Oil City .TVys by virtue of only one league defeat were the undisputed Junior Varsity champions of Section H, District 10, P. I. A. A.

Collins-Coach. Serving out the second year in competition, the Oil City High School Gymnastic squad, under the capable direction of O. E. Collins, chalked up a neat 50-50 average. The Collinsmen lost two dual meets to Warren, and defeated Bradford in a triangular and a dual meet. In the Northwestern P, l. A A. at Erie they finished fourth, in the lVestern Regional at Slippery Rock, fifth, and fifth in State. The highlight of the year was Fred Young's capture of the first state athletic title ever to be brought to Oil City, rope climbing in 4.9 seconds. Next year the team loses five lettermen through the medium of gradua- tion, however with the material remaining and new ones developing, a fine team can be looked for next year.

Setting the pace for all athletic teams this year was the Oil City High School Volleyball squad. With H. L. 'tHud Wells again at their head the Oiler net crew swept the Northwestern P. I. A. A. with only one defeat and surged on to State. The hard-spiking Munhall crew defeated the Oilers in the semi-finals but not Without a fight. With the entire first squad, lettermen, remaining from last year and a host of coming stars, the Wellsmen, although for the first time in five years, not gaining the State finals presented a fighting front. It isn't possible for a team to keep the same stars year after year but with the action We saw in the try-outs We predict another great team next year. VOLLEYBALL 'f. V -, .....

Having been chosen on the qualities of sports- manship, ability to play, and interest in basketball thc girls pictured on the opposite page were chosen to represent the senior class in the girls' intcrclass basketball tournament which started March fifth and ended April second. Each of the girls faithfully showed up at every game and did her part to help the Senior team win first place in the interclass games. In the first game against the Juniors the Seniors set a pace which the underclass team found could not bc beat, thus the Seniors reigned victor- ious in each game and captured first place and the title of HCl12111lI'JSH.
