The Sixteenth Volume of the PENNERI AN ♦ An Annual Publication By The Senior Class PENN H. .CHOOL At Greenville, Pennsylvania 1936 This sixteenth volume of the Pennerian has been written and published in order that we, the Senior Class of 1936. may preserve the cherished memories of our years in Penn High School. THE PENNERIAN STAFF Editor-in-Chief Business Manager Literary Editor Photography Editor Sports Editor________ Art Editor T ypists: Janet Brennan ___ Kathryn Polley Doris Thompson Calvin Loutzenhiser John Breckenridgk Stanley Hazen Joyce Mallory Eleanor Ralston Pauline Troutman Angelina Foglia THE CLASS OFFICERS President_____ Vice President Secretary_____ T reasurer____ Lloyd Greenfield Harold Weaver Loyd Brower James Williams We, the Senior Class of 1936, do dedicate this sixteenth volume of the Pennerian to our School Ad- ministration and to our Parents in appreciation of their interest and guidance in our school work. In days of old, when knights were bold, a lad did just as he was told—by his superiors. He oft did roam, but tried at home, to rise quite near to the noble throne of his loved king. He always began as a lowly page, and followed a knight through the battle's rage, and through the tournament's every stage—till the battle was won. In Penn Castle, our school, we always try to follow this rule and with lessonous monsters fight many a duel—till we triumph. But battles are few and when with school we are through we'll know that with pleasures we've had much to do —through our years here. The teachers do act as our court, and in many a storm are our port, as difficulties they help us to thwart—in our school life. So when of school we have reached the end, we should be able for ourselves to fend, and be glad that our school years we could spend—in Penn Castle.

It was a real achievement which marks a new chapter in your lives. Be- fore you lies a future with its complexities and its opportunities. The time has come to choose what course you will pursue. Choose well and your life will be full of happiness: and worthy service will lead you on. Life is fine and as you live, determine that each new year shall be nobler and more useful than the last. With the kindest regards, I am R. D. Welch, Superintendent of Schools. 19 PENNERI AN 3S To the Members of the Senior Class: With Commencement Day. you have reached the goal that you have been striving to attain for the last four years. This day means the com- pletion of your high school work, and it should be the beginning of bigger and better things for you. Graduation is always a survival of the fittest.” In your life, underscore the statement: Hitch your wagon to a star. Then ask yourself: Where will I be ten years from today? Look back from May 21, 1946, and ask yourself an- other question. Was my high school education worthwhile?” A. R. Stewart, Principal.

After beheading Latinimus and Algeromous, we encountered Englishitis which we were able to put in full retreat. As a reward for our brilliant triumphs, the King granted us a night of revelry which he proclaimed an annual event for all succeeding knights of Freshmanhood. As a further honor, the title of Baron of Sophomore was conferred upon us. In return for this it was our duty to take part in a swimming tournament. Later we were informed that our castle had won the distinction of having the best players in all the surrounding county in the new game called basketball. This game was then taken up in our own castle and it was our cruel fate to lose in a contest with the Senior Sirs. After this disillusionment we were no longer content to remain in our present status. Our renewed efforts brought about results which were responsible for the King's acclaim- ing us Duke of Junior. With this title we were presented a castle of which we were permitted to choose the ruling forces. Then our work began in earnest, for we were obliged to enter- tain our friends in royal style. A bracelet of identification was bestowed (for fifteen cents) upon each member of the castle. At a banquet. King Chili was ushered in and served in mag- nificent splendor. We followed the tradition of the ages by presenting a dramatic perform- ance for the amusement of our contemporaries. The name of this magnificent comedy was Skidding.” Our Castle was thrown open to the general public, and frolic and fun ran riot as the players walked to and fro on the stage. Next we began to plan for the social event of the season when we were expected to play ye host” to the Senior Sirs at a revelry which was to be the height of entertainment for our social season. The occasion exceeded expecta- tions. and thus encouraged, we planned for further frolics. A gala event was a picnic at which we were given the title of Sir Senior. This necessi- tated the acquisition of a new castle, and new rulers were chosen. It was decided to publish the castle journal, and several knights were appointed to carry out this work. The Yuletide season was celebrated by The Holly Hop. We were honored to have Big Hearted Herbert” as our guest on March 13 of ’36. Since we were soon to leave our castle, we entertained at a series of programs and parties. At our final convocation, King Administration presented us with tokens in return for our services since we had entered his domain and sent forth the one hundred and thirty remaining knights in the hope that they would have unlimited success in their future adventures. Page Twenty two 19 PENNERI AN 36 THE WILL E. the noble Seniors, shall depart from our beloved realm of Penn Castle on May next, leaving behind us well-worn books, interesting teachers, and many glorious times; but with us we shall take memories of them.

Page Forty seven THE KNIGHTS' FAREWELL Hail to thee, Penn High School Donor of our knowledge, May we long remember thee At home, at work, at college. Where our life may lead us None of us can tell; But days spent here will fill our thoughts Wherever we may dwell. We leave with sorrow all the things That we have held so dear The friends, the teachers we have met And the joys of our years here. The Alma Mater expresses well The thoughts we cannot say, And it will do so years from now Just as it does today:— Hail to the Gold Hail to the Blue Hail Alma Mater Ever so true We love no other So let our motto be Loyalty, Penn High School Victory!
