QJljr (Tiger Eiln J enior History of Upon the opening of school, in the fall of 1923, we, as green Freshmen first entered the portals of Old Port High. There were fifty-six in this most mature group of freshies and not only were we great in number but we were destined to accomplish great things for our Alma Mater. One of the most important functions of the Freshman Year was the reception given us by the upper classes. Little did they realize as they mutilated our small bodies that they were initiating the most remarkable class that ever entered Port High. We were hoarded at the Georgetson Hall, a trembling and awe-stricken group, by the vicious threats of the ruling classes. As the evening wore on the greater part of our timidness vanished and we proceeded to enjoy ourselves in a most congenial and learned manner. After our initiation, which was embarrassing and humiliating we were immediately recognized as full fledged members of Port High. At eleven-thirty all those who were physically fit walked home while those remaining were compelled to call a taxi or borrow crutches. Other social functions of the Freshmen year were the numerous hikes and parties which were well attended and thoroughly enjoyed. We also selected our class insignia during this first stage in our educational career. After much deep thought and deliberation the white carnation was chosen as our class flower and gold and blue were selected as colors to represent our unusually brilliant aggregation. Officers for thr (Class of Z7 this year were: President, Claude Berg; Vice President, Fred Burgart; Secretary, Loretta Gamble; Treasurer, Leonard Burleson; Class Advisor, Miss Jeager. We started school again at the beginning of our Sophomore year with an entirely changed attitude concerning school, nevertheless, we resumed our peppy pace and those who could not keep up with us were obliged to follow the path of least resistance. Our Sophomore year was even more exciting than the first, having many interesting activities and functions. Unusual originality was displayed in the Progressive Party that was given during this year, also the out-door feats including several hikes and a roast on Baldy. Our worthy officers for the year were: President, Gunnard Anderson: Vice President, Eleanor Emery; Secretary, Dorothy Barnett; Treasurer, Carleton Keagle; Class Advisor, B. C. Mellinger. Our Junior Year found us leaving our old surroundings and traveling up Arnold avenue to the beautiful new school building which had recently been completed. It was several weeks before we became accustomed to the new environment, but finally we settled down to hard work and our usual progressive spirit. The first important event to be held in the new High School was the Freshman Reception, which it is customary for the Junior Class to give. As the old saying goes, “Revenge is sweet” we accomplished in one even- ehr diiirr Hilg ing what we had anticipted since our welcome into P. A. H. S. Among the numerous business transactions, none were of such importance as the purchase of our class rings. For once our class had a chance to exhibit its excellent taste, in the selection of our class symbol. To us they are reminders of High School days, whose value can never be measured except by ourselves. The annual Banquet given in honor of the Senior Class proved to be one of the most elaborate affairs ever given by high school students. It was recognized by all members of our class as an important event, and necessary preparation and arrangements were made by our different committees. A four course dinner was served by our mothers. The tables were beautifully decorated witn roses and carnations, the flowers of both classes. Appropriate menu cards, favors and place cards also graced the table. After the dinner many interesting toasts were given, after which we adjourned to.the auditorium for the dance. With a few more parties and hikes the Junior Year came to a glorious conclusion. The last stage in our High School career has been reached. We are now wrestling with the conjugations, theorems, traverses, and orations to complete the development of our marvelous intellects and to accomplish things which will bring fame to our beloved Alma Mater. In the year of our supremacy, namely our Senior Year we dominated the lower classes with an iron hand and they, recognizing our skilled leadership have followed willingly and the school as a whole has accomplished great things during the school year 1926-27. During our Senior Year we attempted to make things interesting for the lower classes. We sponsored many parties, entertainments, dances and contests which have all been brilliantly successful. The Senior Boys defeated the other three class Basketball teams and are therefore School Champions. But not only were the Seniors champions of the School but many of the best Varsity Players were found among our number. Two things which show the initiative and talents of our class are the Washington Trip and the Publication of an Edition of The Tiger Lily, after an elapse of ten years since the proceeding book was published. Our Class Orator, Clyde Lynch won the championship of not only the local school but the entire County and won the honor of being the alternate at the sectional meet. This feat does not only bring praise to himself and his class but presented a beautiful silver cup to the school. With tears in their eyes the lower classmen watch the Seniors depart but we feel sure that if they follow our examples and advice they will continue to make Port High a first rate school. Our officers for the Senior Year were: President, Leonard Burleson ; Vice President, John Antonson; Treasurer, Philip Todd; Secretary, Mary Cantwell “FIN SHED YET BEGINNING” JOHN ANTONSON The boy that “tickles the ivories’ and makes old Paddy look like a stranger at the piano. Johnnie is one of the athletes of which the school is justly proud. He is a varsity man in all three sports and has an envied ability in each. He is a member of the Dramatic Club and usually has one of the leading roles in school plays. We hope he will stay clear of all women as they are liable to destroy some of his talent. DOROTHY BARNETT A little brown-eyed faithful member of the class who has had her heart and hands full of cooked food and candy during the year of 1926-27. Her smiles and personality have won for her a place in the hearts of all who have been fortunate enough to get a “knock-down” to her. If Dan Cupid Mrs. her he must have Mr. with a million. HOWARD BAKER Well deserves his position on the Staff as Boys Athletic Editor, being Captain of both the football and track teams, besides being an indespensible player on the teams of previous years. Bake was also president of' the Athletic Association and in his Junior year was vice-president of his class. It has often been stated by members of the female-sex that “He runs like a dear. ’ FREDERICK BURGART Firpo is one of the schools pride athletes having been an important member of the football and basketball teams and being star contester in the weight events on the track team. He is one of the most popular fellows, and is always ready and willing to work for the class. It has been predicted that he will, spend his future as a Midget in Singsing Sisters Circus. LEONARD BURLESON The clown of the class but nevertheless a valued member tor his ever-ready wit and humor. He has the Sophisticated honor of being President of the Senior Class of ’27. His delight is debating at which game he is hard to be defeated. He is also a valued member oi the football team. Scholastically he is one of the class leaders and will undoubtedly make a brilliant success o� anything he attempts. Farmer is a Ladies man and is oiten caught glancing in their directions although he is too bashful to speak to them. MARY E. CANTWELL After Mary graduated from the Turtle Point Grade School she joined our class as a Freshman and is now graduating with us after four long years of study. Mary has been active in all the student activities. We do not worry about Mary’s future success in the world because her bright smile will get her anywhere. GENEVIEVE CLARK Joined us as a Freshman and has won high respect from her classmates, having made excellent grades during all the four years. She is a member of the Spanish Club and is always ready to take part in all the class activities. When she drifts to the west, as she plans, we hope she will keep a place in her heart and memory for her schoolmates in old P. A. H. S. ROBERT CUTTING Bob joined our ranks at the beginning of the Senior year, coming from Westfield. Pa. and has already been termed a “Regular Feller”. He is a good musician, playing the violin in the orchestra. His sparkling wit and good nature are always ready and we hope that he never forgets his old High School friends and the happy days spent in Port High. WAVA F. DANNELS Wava is our Nightingale taking an active part in all Glee Club activities for the past three years, also a member of the Executive Council and Society Editor of the Tiger Lily. Wava’s records as a scholar and a leader are very good, and we hope that she will continue as she has begun, a natural, born friend of every one. MARTHADELL DARRIN Markey is a very faithful member of oar class who can lie depended upon to do her part. She is very jolly and lets nothing get the best o her. Markey belonged to the class Basket Ball team and the Glee Club for three years. If the world had more people such as her it would be a much happier place in which to live. ELDORA EDGREEN One of the mast popular girls tn the school and is always working and planning for the success of some class project. Doe is; one of the star members of the girls basketball team and is a popular figure at all social functions. She is quite interested in her study of that class of human being called the man and she does not have trouble finding snb'ects to study. Her personality and smile make her a welcome guest anywhere. MARION FALK Marion is another member of our crew who attributes her early training to the out lying districts. Marion has been faith ul to the cause of the old P. A. R. S. as is shown by her good grades although her favorite study is Spanish because of its sleepy atmosphere in which to take her siesta. She is a member of the said Club. ORILLA FREER Orilla is a demure little lass who came to Port Allegany as a Freshman from Open Brook and has proved to be one of our most valuable members. She has a very fine personality and her face is always wreathed in smiles. Miss Freer is a member of the Spanish and Dramatic Clubs and has been very faithful on all the committees on which she has served. PAULINE FREER Pauline joined our class from Brooklyn Side and soon proved her worth as a scholar, an athlete and a friend. Mi9s Freer always took an active part in all the class functions and served on many committees. In her Senior year she was Captain of the Girls Basket Ball team, a member of the Spanish Club and on the staff of the year book. Pauline has always been a kind friend and an excellent classmate and we are all sure that she will make a mark in the world for herself. LORETTA GAMBLE A little dark haired Sheba who has had our class interest at heart first, last and always, and whose name has many times appeared on the honor roll. As a Freshman she annexed the offices of secretary and Class Historian. As a Junior she served as a faithful member of the Debating Club and now that she is a mature Senior her marvelous brain is concentrated on the execution of the duties of President of the Dramatic Club and Secretary of the Latin Club. Perhaps her husband will profit by her Club experience via rolling pin. HELEN HAGLUND Decided that she liked our class better than any other so she annexed herself to our marvelous group as a Junior. She has proved to be a faithful member of the flock and does not give the teachers the slightest trouble by chewing, whispering, giggling or any such misdemeanors. Oh! No! She belongs to the Dramatic Club and for two years was a valued member of the Glee Club. She won’t get wed till she is asked even if it is Leap Year. HOWARD HANSON What would our class be without Howdy the Sheik? Hanse can catch more women in fifteen minutes than the rest of the Senior gentlemen can in twenty. He has guarded residences from the Brooklyn Side to Baldy and is still looking for another. He is one of the four gentlemen Spanish athletes who have been daily wrestling with the conjugations of the horrible Spanish Idioma. Senior Reporter on the Bugle Staff is another scalp on his belt of honors. LOUELLA HARDES Louella is musically inclined to the extent that even the songbirds love to listen to her sing. I mean play the piano. She is quiet and thoughtful and is probably amusing herself by recalling visions of her past, planning the future and concentraing on her lessons. No one knows but the old proverb “Still water runs deep,'9 is true in the case of Louella. EMMA HOLMES A girl who, after her work is done, is as ready to enjoy a good time as anyone, but who is sure her studying and duties are all attended to before taking such action. Her name often appears on the Honor Roll. She is official President of the Spanish Club and participated in the Oratorical Contest. She heads our class in scholarship. ELIN JOHNSON An indispensable member of the class of ’27. She is a con.irmed man-hater and will positively not let the boys alone. Besides being the life of social gatherings Elin has accomplished great things along the line of scholarship and service. Very seldom is the Honor Roll announced minus her name and she was Class Secretary during our Junior Year. No doubt she will make a man of her- self. ROYCE O. JOHNSON Royce Johnson is one of the most famous and best known members of the Class. Mr. Johnson who is known as 4 Bones” is Editor-in-Chief of the Tiger Lily, and it is to Bones that we are indebted for the success of this year book. Bones has made himself popular in the literary field by being Editor of the High School Bugle, in which he published many original poems. Bones holds many important offices such as Basket Ball Manager. Secretary of the Athletic Association and a member of the Executive Council, as well as being Class Poet. CARLETON KEAGLE Scholastically, socially and athletically. Keagle is always in the leading class. He was a member of the football team for three years and was chosen as All-County End by the selection of several leading sport critics. He is advertising manager o. the Tiger Lily Staff and is a willing worker in all class activities. He was Chairman of the Junior Prom Committee and the result was one of the best banquets ever given by a Port High Class. He is one of the class leaders in his studies and will make a success of anything he attempts. TESSIE KEARNE Tessie has been a member of our class since the time it started to exist and has always been a very congenial classmate. She is intensely interested in the class and has had a great share in making the class of ’27 one of the best classes that ever graduated. She is inclined to become an artist and will make a success of her work as she is well blessed with talent. She is Associate Euitor of the Tiger Lily Staff and is an active worker in all class activities. We hope she will always cherish memories of her school days and friends. MARGARET KNAPP Commands the love and respect of all her classmates for her quiet, pleasing dispoM-tion and her friendly manner. She has a very high scholastic standard and is never far from best. She is a member of the Spanish Club and is a very talented Spanish student. Margaret will always have a swarm of friends in Port Allegany in the forms of her classmates. GENEVIEVE LARSON Is better known as Gen” and has followed the Class of ’27 through the four long years of work and study. Gen is a fine gu who is always willing to help the class in all its activities and do her part in making school life a sucess. Gen is always smiling and will do her best to help a classmate with a difri-cult lesson. ALBERT H. LEWIS Became a member of our famous class as a Freshman. Mr. Lewis is known as Arkey because of his scientific inclination, and his inventive turn of mind. Arkey is one of our classmates who has used his time to good advantage as shown in his high scholastic standing. When serving on committees Mr. Lewis has proved himself a most valuable member. Arkey was a member o. the Debating Club and again proved his ability. LEONA MEACHAM Leona is another young lady who has been with the class since its organization. In all the years of study and pleasure Leona has taken an active part in all class functions and has proved the fact that she can be relied upon .or any duty. She has made many friend3 and made a good record as a student. LOIS OSTRANDER Received her basic education in the Brooklyn Side School after which she entered the institution known as the Port Allegany High School. Lois became one of the most popular young ladies of the class of ’27 and soon showed her determination to graduate and go to Washington and it is for these goals that she has been working for the past four years. Miss Ostrander has taken an active part in all class functions and has been a member of the Spanish Club and Glee Club. CLYDE LYNCH Winner of McKean County High Schools Oratorical Contest A young man who achieved special fame for Port High. Clyde Lynch was Port’s representative in the County Oratorical Contest held at Kane on April 8. From the first he was real interested in the contest but after winning the local contest and being selected as our representative for the Kane meet he worked with special pains to improve his oration and delivery so far as to win, for his Alma Mater. When the night of April the 8th arrived and Clyde was chosen first speaker the Port crowds were somewhat discouraged and doubtful. But when he took the platform and asked in a commanding voice “Citizens of the United States, what does the Constitution mean to you ?” they lost their fear and before his speech was concluded they were confident of victory. When the final representative had delivered his oration the Port crowds still retained their air of confidence and when the chairman announced Clyde I ynch as winner, he merely confirmed their belief. Being winner of the County meet not only brought personal fame to the winner but presented a beautiful silver cup to the school as a trophy. In the sectional meet at Greenville he was awarded second place which in itself was a great honor considering the range of opposition. El Clydo is not only known for his oratorical ability but he has held many responsible offices in the school, being editor of the Bugle, football manager, a member of the Spanish Club and having served as president of the Class of ’27 as Juniors. He has a good personality and is very popular among his schoolmates and friends. ALICE PUHL Has followed the class from the first grade to the highest goal, that of graduation. Alice is more commonly known as “Al.” We are sure Alice has distinguished herself, not only as a student but as a diligent worker and a faithful classmate. Alice has served on numerous committees and has done her share to place the class of ’27 on the map. JOSEPH A. PLUNKETT Joseph became a member of our aggregation as a Freshman after completing his course in the Turtle Point Grade School. He was immediately given the name Jo, oy whic.i he has been known through High Scho .!. Jo has been a model student as shown by his high marks and sincere attitude towards attaining an education. Mr. Plunkett has been a «ine class mate and a kind friend and we are sure that he will be a brilliant success. CARL ROSS Owes his early training to the Brooklyn Side from where he graduated in 1923 and enlisted in the ranks of the High School Class of ’27. He was soon named ,‘Pat,, and immediately began to distinguish himself in the Agricultural department, holding many offices in that organization during his High School course. Pat has always been active in all the class activities and has proved that he is one of the most valuable members of the class. Mr. Ross played prominent part in athletic , having been a foot ball Letter Man of 192 7. CLIO RUTTER Clio Rutter joined the class of ’27 at the beginning o. the Junior Year, coming from West Virginia. Clio is the Class Cartoonist and artist, as well as being on the staff of the Tiger Lily. Mr. Rutter first brought fame to himself by doing the famous Charleston dance and later invented the Romunskey. Clio is a good natured student and is always ready to do his duty whether the task be great or small. PAUL R. STONE Stony is one of the members of the class who belongs to the Boy Scouts. His greatest achievements are to feed the birds and build tires without kerosene. He is a valued member of the class and is always ready to work for the success of some class project. His hobby is catching wildcats at which game he is a great success. He has a pleasing disposition and is well liked by his classmates.

He is also a lin-ancial man and has a good start along this line by being Treasurer of both the Athletic Association and the marvelous Class of 2 . Besides having the foregoing charactersitics, Phil is a ladies man. They go wild, simply wild over Phil.” NATIONAL HONORARY SOCIETY One of the greatest achievements that may be attained by a student in Port Allegany High School is to become a member of the National Honorary Society. Each year the faculty chooses several persons from the Senior Class to belong to this select organization. Only the upper fourth of the class are brought tin for consideration by the Faculty. From this limited group they choose the members on the basis of Scholarship- Leadership, Character and Service to the School. From the Class of ’27 the Faculty have selected Johnnie Antonson, Emma Holmes, and Loretta Gamble as members of the National Honorary Society. The entire student body and Faculty send congratulations through the “Tiger Lily.” JUNIOR CLASS Top Row, Left to Right—Lawrence Grigsby, Joseph Moore, George Grabe, Armat Duhart, Claude Berg, Roland Hunter, Charles Plunkett, Robert Fortner, Gordon Edgar, Ben Burt, Clarence Ellison.

Grabe This class has followed in the footsteps of the superb class of 1927. they entered High School as green, if not greener, than the average Freshmen Class but they continued to advance and, throwing off this characteristic Frosh trait- arose to assume the dignity of Sophomores. This year they were fairly well represented in athletics, namely football, basketball and track. Upon entering school as Juniors they gave proof of their originality and ability when they made a splendid success of the annual Freshmen reception. This event was well planned and carried out and was greatly appreciated by those who attended, excepting necessarily the Freshmen. During the Junior year they have increased their representation in athletics to a great extent. Some of the Juniors taking part in the various athletic contests were: Hunter, Grigsby, Pfeil, Grabe, Berg, Thomas, Linnane, Ruth Johnson, Margaret Farner, Ruby Lovell, and others. Harold Thomas was captain of the 1927 basketball team. Class Colors ........ Blue and White Class Motto....... Second Semester President .................. E. Pfeil Vice-President ........ C.

One of the great problems which confront every Junior class is the question of class rings. They displayed good taste and judgment in purchasing thirty rings which were very attractive. At last we find them wrestling with the problem which tests their resources to the utmost, the Junior-Senior Prom. The engineering of the Prom greatly determines the reputation of a class. The banquet prepared April 27, proved to be one of the best ever given. Through the co-operation and untiring efforts of the class as a whole the Prom went over big. Combining an unequable banquet spread with a well arranged program and finishing with wonderful dance music and dance floor, the occasion was bound to be one of the best. We sincerely hope and believe that the Senior Class of ’28 will do justice to the honors and reputation of the Class of ’27.

B.Kirkpatrick The present Sophomore class is one of the largest in the history of the school, having fifty-four members. They are not only a large class but a very progressive class. They have shown a great deal of initiative and interest in all their class activities as well as in all projects which concern the school as a whole. Although they are only in their first year of Senior High School they have shown that they have the making of a wonderful class which will prove its value to the school. Already we have resorted to them for some of our athletic material. A good proportion of Sophomores can be found on the varsity teams representing all three of the sports. They are not only members of the team but are valued players. From among the Sophomore athletes, Jack Healy, was chosen as captain of the 1927-28 football squad. Dollaway, Healy, Redington, Black and Chisholm were letter men during the 1926-27 season. The Sophomores may be justly proud of their athletes. Class Colors............Red and White The Sophomores are always well represented on the Honor Roll. They have among their number several very capable writers. Ronabelle Winston won the prize for the best essay on the life of Lincoln. Paul Sherwood won honors in the agricultural department. They are planning on ordering their class rings in the near future in order to have them at the beginning of their Junior year. They are looking forward to many activities and functions such as the Freshmen Reception Junior Prom and the Washington Trip. The Class of ’29 is a real live class and we feel sure that they will make a success of their different projects if they continue to work and plan with the enthusiasm they have shown thus far. The members of the class of ’29 will graduate from their Alma Mater with memories of having been in one of the best classes that ever graduated from the Port Allegany High School.

So far that trip has been all that could be desired, as references to the Honor Roll show, in many cases the Freshmen completely out-numbering the upper classmen in that extent. In October, the Freshmen were entertained by the upper classmen, rather it was the Freshmen who entertained the others together with fine music and a program furnished by members of the upper classes. There are unusually good actors and preformers in that class. Above all their good will and willingness to comply with the rules of the school have won them to the hearts of the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes. The common greenness of the Freshman classes, therefore no novelty to this class, is gradually disappearing. And although the class usually conduct themselves very well, they, like anyone else, enjoy their share of fun and nonsense occasionally. Not only is their scholastic record good but also their athletic ability, having gained a place in athletics in basket ball. The Freshman Class is composed of a good jolly crowd and together with its good record is a class Port High can well afford to be proud of. With all these points, the Freshmen will accomplish something for Port Allegany High School in the years to come. May they continue on their way as they have started all through life!

Laurel Crescat Scientia itlir amrr lLiU) Class Jrnjjlit'ru A ragged old tramp crawled out from behind a brush pile, where he had spent the night, and started strolling down the dusty old road, toward the little town of Prohibition, whistling “How Dry 1 Am”, and wishing he had a little material to quench his ever increasing hunger. He spied a chicken-coop and was half-way in the window of the dilapidated edifice when the clear voice of a boy rang out upon the air, “Hey fella, pile out of there before I call my old man.” As he turned and gazed upon the countenance of the little lad he recognized something familiar in the face of the young intruder. In order to satisfy his curiosity he asked of the boy “Say, are you acquainted with a man called Farmer Burleson ?” “Acquainted with him”, retorted the youth, “He’s been my old man ever since I was born. Ho, ho, ho” and off he went to call his male parent. The lad returned a few minutes later with his father whom the tramp recognized as none other than Leonard Burleson. Mr. Burleson being in a rather bad humor was about to mutilate his visitor when he gasped and exclaimed, “Say, aren’t you my old classmate Sheik Hanson?” “Keyer-ect” yelped the little down-and-out, “Get some beans and I’ll tell you about my fruitless journeys.” Upon the arrival of the desired fruit Hanse began to expound tale after tale of his hairbreadth adventures. “One night while practicing on my saxaphone, one of my friends came to me and told me an exciting tale about the beautiful women in China and the mad rush of men to their aid. He convinced me to take a trip so I decided to leave on the next train. I traveled in China for over twenty years and getting homesick I decided to make a trip back to Port Allegany and visit my old friends. So here I am on my way home as a bum. Dish me out some of your clothes and we’ll both go hunt up some of our old friends.” On the following morning both of our friends started out for Port Allegany. Along the road Mr. Burleson explained to the Sheik that he had worked in the B. V. D. factory for over fifteen years and after saving a fortune of about $258 had married Dorothy Barnett and they had moved to the country to give the little farmers the same start that he had had. They had lived happily until recently when they quarreled over the biggest piece of pie and Dorothy had gone home to mother. By this time they had arrived at Port Allegany and were surprised to hear a shrill whistle blowing and see a big machine drive up to the station as they got off the train. On closer examination they noticed that it was Phil Todd and his bride, Mary Cantwell out riding in the new fire truck. They had brought it to the station so that travelers could see that the town owned a truck. After making themselves known to Phil and Mary, they climbed onto the back of the truck Slip ©igrr Cilg and were driven to the Todd mansion on Tannery row. Mary, being Secretary of the class was pretty well posted on the whereabouts of our classmates and told our heroes that all but two of our classmates were still in Port and that the two, Tessie Kearne and Clio Rutter had been married and were taking a trip in a balloon for their honeymoon. They were going to get a closeup on Mars and paint a masterpiece that would sell for millions of dollars. Clyde Lynch and Loretta Gamble were out selling peanut-shells for garbage men. They were getting 21 2 per cent commission. Clyde was doing the talking while Loretta handled the ware. Louella Hardes and Johnnie Antonson were playing jazz instruments at funerals for undertaker Pat Ross. Mr. Ross was doing a good business by the good financial judgment of his better half, Orilla Freer. Doe Edgreen, Elin Johnson, Marian Falk, Lois Ostrander and Margaret Knapp were Romuniskey Dancers in the Noodle Follies now featuring at the Main street Burlesque Theatre, now operated by Mr. Robertus Cutting and his famed wife, Emma Holmes. Marian says its a great life but they don’t play Sleepy Time Gal often enough. Mr. Burleson, who had been looking out of the window, began to laugh as he noticed a peculiar sight on the street. “What are all the kids following that couple for?” Mary, unable to control her mirth, also fell into a streak of laughter. “That”, she said, is W. C. Keagle and his wife, Pauline Freer taking the family to the circus.” Upon the suggestion of the Sheik they all jumped into the fire truck and started for the circus. Upon reaching their destination they were greeted by cries “Have a lunch, Eat a dog,” and they recognized the voice of their old classmate Howard Baker. Bake told them that Fred Burgart was selling Caesar Ponies at the other end of the lot so they went to visit him but were interrupted by a girl selling chances on a fern and recognizing the saleslady as Helen Haglund they purchased several chances. Helen told us not to go into the big tent because Markie Darrin was in there giving Aesthetic Dancing lessons to her pet elephant. She directed us to the science tent where Archimedes Lewis and his harem, Leona Meacham, Genevieve Larson and Alice Puhl were demonstrating their “Missing Molecule” which they had captured on the Washington Trip, over twenty years ago. They then went to the Minstrel Show, with the intention of dodging their old classmates, but again they were foiled because taking the leading part of “Rock Bottom Anna” was no other singer than Wava Dannels-and parked in the front row with his millionaire wife was their old friend Bones Johnson enjoying himself immensely. Having quenched their curiosity as to the fortunes of their classmates Mr. Burleson and his shiek friend left the circus lot unknown to Phil and Mary and were never seen, heard of, or discussed again. QHjr uligrr £tl{t ■ jEtotorial A fitting definition for a Year Book is, “A Fireside Encore of the School Year.” For several years, in Port High, there has been no form of a year book published. During this time there have been some very progressive classes graduating from the school. They have accomplished great things along the line of athletics and scholarship. But what have they to show for their work ? What written histories have they of their classes ? How many of them have pictures of their schoolmates ? Perhaps they still have the minutes of their class meetings or perhaps some industrious student has kept a miniature history of their class doings. But I will venture to say that for the majority of their recollections they must resort to their memories alone. The class of ’27, realizing this condition have decided to recommence the practice of printing a year book. In this book we have attempted to print records of all the interesting things that have taken place during the year. Being the first edition in such a long time we do not feel it necessary to make apologies for the faults and mistakes which you will perhaps find but we hope you will overlook them and notice that which is correct. We also hope that the classes to come will follow our example and publish the Tiger Lily yearly. To the class of ’27 this book will be as defined, “A fireside encore of the school year”, and to others we hope it will be interesting. WASHINGTON TRIP The Seniors have been working exceedingly hard, will soon have reached their goal and are about to receive the reward for their labors. When the special train pulls out for Washington they will feel the sensation of having a long planned dream become a reality. Washington! The seat of our National government. Who is there in the United States that does not have a desire to see where our laws are made and to see the residences and meeting places of our politicians? The most opportune time to take this trip is when one is young as the impression made on the mind of youth will not be soon eradicated. Therefore it has been the custom for High School Seniors to conclude their school career by going to Washington together. Is it not an ideal way to disband class ties and to depart, each on his own path to apply his own knowledge in real life? But hardly would this dream have become a reality were it not for the painstaking mothers who faithfully and willingly co-operated with us in replenishing our treasury. Let’s give a cheer for the most valued and loved persons in the world- MOTHERS Slir Sigrr Cily J eittor Class lllill We, the members of the Senior Class of Port Allegany High School, being of sound mind and memory do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament as stated in the following: We do hereby bequeath our dignified seats in Chapel to the Juniors, our talent and ability to the Sophomores and to the Freshmen our mild manner of conducting ourselves in our classes.

BUGLE STAFF Among the things which have been started, since the publication of the last year book, that has proved to be a benefit to the school is the High School Bugle. It has now been in operation for six years and is very well known and is read by a great number of persons especially those interested in the school. The purpose of the Bugle is three fold. First to be an outlet for the literary talent of the school. Second to let the townspeople know what is going on in the school. Thirdly it serves as a very good advertisement for school functions. The Reporter-Argus contributes the space in the paper for the Bugle and the gift is appreciated by the school as well as the staff.

For the past few years they have sent representatives to Harrisburg to compete for honors in their various projects. The trip to Harrisburg is looked forward to by every Ag student and they have never failed to bring home a good share of the hon- ors. This year the Department under Mr. Holland were very successful and carried off several honors for Port High and for themselves as individuals. A good share of the success of the department is due to the work of Mr. Holland while the remainder is due to the effort put forth by the boys themselves.

Many persons have marveled that four mere boys could be in the class and exist with seventeen women. If the reader is clever with figures he will find that there are four and one fourth girls for every man. The se- cret of the success of this group is that the teacher, Miss Posner has made the work so interesting as well as instructive that the students have not wasted time to quarrel. The class learned many interesting things about Spain and have succeeded in learning how to speak the language fluently. aljr eiiwr Cily Suridij ALUMNI BANQUET On December 27, 1926 the Port Allegany High School Alumni, together with the Senior Class of ’27 and guests, met for the annual Alumni Banquet. The dinner was served at Canoe Place Inn at 6 :30 o’clock after which toasts and talks were given by students of various colleges and Universities. The toastmistress of the evening was Miss Muriel Ventress who proved to be a good one. A short business meetirg v as called immediately after the toasts. New officers were elected and the Senior Class was unanimously voted into the Alumni. After singing “Orange and the Black” the crowd journeyed to the Firemen’s Auditorium where a dance was held. Music was furnished by the Criterion Orchestra. FOOTBALL BANQUET The Girl’s Athletic Association entertained the football team at the annual G. A. A. Banquet held in the Baptist Church Wednesday, December 15, 1926.

The happy gathering then adjourned to the High School Auditorium for a dance. FRESHMAN RECEPTION The Freshmen were given their reception October 30, 1926 in the High School. The initiation was neld in the Auditorium. The Freshmen were frightened of the Jury which consisted of members of the Senior Class but never the less they played their part well in the evenirgs entertainment. Aside from a few casualities no serious injuries were afflicted. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Music was furnished by Zaph’s Orchestra of Olean. UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT The Senior Class of the Port Allegany High School with some of the select talent of our schools gave a fine programme at the High School Auditorium April 13, 1927. This programme took the place of the Annual Senior Play and proved to be one of the accomplishments of the Class of ’27. Three plays and other features were given consisting of musical numbers and dances.

The first of this series was held November 1, 1926. Fitch Brothers furnished the music for this dance. Novelties, consisting of serpentines and confetti was one of the main features of the evening. The dancing hours were from nine to one. Everyone reported a good time and thirty-five dollars was cleared. The success of this dance led to others. The Thanksgiving Dance took place November 22,1926. Fitch Brothers proved their popularity again and the feature of this dance was a dancing exhibition given by Clio Rutter. Twenty dollars was cleared on this dance, which was also successful. The third and last dance was a St. Patricks Dance March 17,1927. This was the biggest success of the season in the way of dances. Fitch Brothers Orchestra drew crowds from all sections of the country. A dress was given away at this dance that had been donated by Mrs. Ury. Eighty dollars was cleared on this dance and we regret that it is the last one. JUN OR BANQUET The annual Junior Banquet, which proved to be the biggest event of the school year between the Juniors and Seniors, took place April 27, 1927 at Canoe Place Inn. Dinner was served at 6:30 o’clock after which humorous and serious toasts were given. A fine programme consisting of many delightful musical numbers was presented. This programme showed excellent talent among the Junior Class. Very good numbers were given. After the programme an elaborate dance took place. Fitch Brothers the most popular orchestra of this section furnished music for this occasion. Every Senior compliments the Junior Class sincerely for the great success of the Junior Banquet. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL BANQUET The Girls’ Basketball Team of P. A. H. S. were given a banquet at Canoe Place Inn April 16, at 6:30 o’clock.

It has for its specific purpose to give systematic, technical and practical instruction in agriculture to persons who are farming or preparing to farm. The boys in this branch of the High School, under the instruction of Mr. B. B. Holland, have learned how to establish a profitable farm business through a knowledge of farm livestock, their care and management; farm crops, soils and methods to use in order to get the greatest possible return for money invested. In order to cope with modern business methods, a farmer must be a good business man himself. Thus bookkeeping and business methods are taught in this department so that each student is able to prepare, pack and ship his commodities so that they will command the highest prices. All of these operations require the very best business ability that the student is able to acquire. This department has done some very fine work and has proved itself a credit and valuable asset to our school and community. awwwmmmmtmwgwmwwwwwwwwwmwmwmwg I $ 1 OVERLAND and W1LLYS-KN1GHT | | SALES and SERVICE 1 � « � « OVERLAND IVHIPPET FOUR and SIX IVILLYS KNIGHT 70 and 66 Superior Quality—NeTt Low Prices Comfort—Economy— ’Power WAGNER DOWNS MAIN STREET GARAGE If you intend to build or remodel your home, the place to get your Material is at ANDY ANDERSONS � Port Allegany, Pa.

The reason for this great disturbance was a planned trip to Rock City that fell on that day and date. We left Economics Class about eleven twenty two at a time so that we would not create any terrible disturbance. At twelve o’clock we were all ready and waiting in front of the school house for the truck, which finally arrived. After a few minutes of consultation we started out most of us in the truck and others in cars. After having a few arguments and little cursing at Farmers Valley, we finally arrived at Rock City finding that one car had been lost, strayed or stolen and had wound up at Kinzua Bridge. Lunch or picnic dinner was served on the truck in Rock City (that is, if you happened to be on time, otherwise there was plenty of salad). After making a careful survey of the rocks and surroundings we left for home. A wonderful time was declared by all present. We were well entertained by the comedians Johnson and Antonson and Clio Rutter, the famous dancer. If you would like to hear what happened to the lost car ask Howdy Hanson— he knows. %???? $?

Off and on, since the dedication af the school, football has flourished and has been a great factor in stimulating town interest in school activities. Due to the limited number of male students and several other distracting elements, football languished between the years of It) 14-20. Credit for the revival of football interest in Port Allegany High School is undoubtedly due to the efforts of C. J. Alderfer, who became supervisor of Port Allegany Schools in 1920. In that year he issued a call for Gridiron volunteers. His call was received with enthusiastic response by all the students. Although hampered by the lack of experienced men and poor equipment, Mr. Alderfer’s untiring efforts were rewarded by seeing his green material develop into excellent gridiron timber which served as the nucleus for the dauntless teams that were to come. Each following year saw a higher calibre team representing Port High, culminating in the courageous, undefeated team of ’24. Football spirit still stays with every student in Port Allegany High School and the teams of 1925 and 1925 were of no mean ability. The team of ’25, under the direction of coach Mellinger, although handicapped by the loss of a full squad of stars through graduation, proved to be too stern material for the teams of many surrounding towns who feared the “Port Game” more than the contest with any other team. The experience of previous years and the unusual ability of the players combined with the coaching of Mr. Nolon, produced, for Port High in the fall of 1926, another flashy football aggregation. This team boasted of a heavy but fast line and a fleet but sturdy backfield. The 1926 season opened with a game with the Alumni. The game was marked by a great number of fumbles due to the soaking rain which made the field muddy and the ball slippery. The High School men were unaole to complete their passes and the game consisted mostly of line plunging at which game the heavy Alumni team was more proficient. The Alumni team consisted mostly of former stars and proved to be more than a match for the light School team so the game ended with the High School losing by a score of 14-0. Local sport critics were somewhat discouraged with the work of the High School team against the Alumni but when on October 2, they defeated Salamanca High by a score of 67-0 the fans were again confident of a fairly successful season. The Salamanca team, although lacking in experience, played a good clean game and are given much credit for their gamey attempt. In this game Baker evaded the entire Salamanca team and went 90 yards for a touchdown. The Ridgway game was a very thrilling contest. The first quarter was Port’s, making 21 points in this period. Ridgway staged a spectacular comeback and made the game interesting by a well planned forward pass attack. Port’s lead in the first quarter was too great and the game was theirs by the score of 31-12. The feature of the game was Grigsby’s 80 yard run, from the kickoff, for a touchdown. On October 23, the team with half the town as rooters journeyed to Olean expecting to see a real exciting contest. They would have realized their expectations had the referee cared to watch instead of taking part in the game. At the beginning of the game Port was penalized four times in five plays and the play where no penalty was called was a touchdown for Olean. Olean’s lineup contained three post-graduates. Olean was not penalized once during the entire game. Discouraged by the referee, Port failed to show any form whatever and � � ♦ ♦ « � � « ¥ S l S� f ♦ « '� ! � � � ♦� � ♦ � � 95 � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � ■ � � � � 8« � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � e- � � � � 3 � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � SUCCESSFUL MANAGERS DON’T GUESS.

Sl)r aiyrr iEilij the game resulted in a victory for Olean. Alibis are a poor policy but it is evident that with those same officials, Olean would be undefeated. The Kane game was a very strenuous contest for both teams, Kane scoring a touchdown in the first quarter by recovering a fumble and carrying it over the goal. Port scored in the last quarter by a drilling line and end run attack. Port was the stronger of the two teams, keeping the ball in their opponents territory the majority of the time. Healy’s punting was the feature of the game. Baker was not in the game due to injuries acquired in the Olean squabble. This was the second tie game played by the two teams in the last two seasons. The Wellsboro game was a real clean hard fought battle. No individual stars were predominating and the game was close and interesting. Port was the better of the two teams as is shown in the final score 7-0. Finally the day of the Emporium game arrived and the entire community was stirred with expectations of the long talked of contest. The score was tie until the last quarter when Emporium was given the benefit of a close decision which placed them in a position to score. Good sportsmanship on the part of the players of both teams was a good feature of the game. The Coudersport game, at Coudy November 20, was an easy victory for Port. The local Tigers scored touchdowns galore despite the determined effort of the Coudy team to stop them. The final score was 34-0 with Port on the large end. On Thanksgiving Day the Smeth-port aggregation journeyed to Port to engage in a contest to settle arguments about the supremacy of the two teams. Port’s star backfield was crippled by the loss of both Baker and Mealy, due to injuries. The game was well officiated and hotly contested. Smethport won by a score of 13-20. The season was thus concluded and plans are being made for the next years squad which is bound to be a winner. Clem Flynn of Olean will coach and it is evident that he has some very good material from which to choose his team. � ■ COMPLIMENTS OF PORT ALLEGANY MILLING CO. G. L.

In basketball, more than in any other sport, the players must be experienced or as the expression goes “Brought up on the court.” It takes several years for a school to develop a winning team. For the revival of basketball in Port High we are again indebted to Mr. Alderfer. The first practices were held in the Firemen’s Auditorium. Before long a very good team was developed. They had a fairly successful season but the main result of their work was that the smaller fellows were allowed to practice and gained experience that is going to make them into a more proficient team before many seasons have passed. The team of 1927 was also a fairly successful team. They scored approximately three times as many points against their opponents as wfere scored against them. The season started with a miser- able exhibition against the Kane team. The fellows had but a few nights practice and were in no condition to contest with a team such as Kane boasts of. The game served to let the fellows know that they were in need of practice. Renovo came to Port with the expectation of taking home an easy victory but were doomed to disappointment. The Port team showed wonderful form in that game and were in the lead the majority of the time, it was the closest and most hotly contested game of the season. Renovo won the game by one point in the last minute to play. The team was victorious over Coudersport for the first time in the history of the two schools. They also won from Roulette and Galeton. Burgart, Antonson and Johnson will graduate with the Class of ’27 and will be greatly missed by the school. Nevertheless, the team of 1928, will in all probability be the best team Port High has ever produced. to d • 8� 8 8 « to to 8 -8 � •� to to to 8 to « !

The first girls team won every game and are equalled only by the team of 1926-27 in honors. With the changing of the rules in 1925 the girls met with a sad fate. Their season was not successful but was a great aid in developing the teams of the past two years. The organization of the Tri-County League and the new floor available in our present High School served as a large stimulant for the the value of two years association with girls game. The team began to show the game and in 1926 had one of the best records of any girls team in the league. The team of the school year 1926 and 1927 was Champion of the Tri-County League, feeling only one League defeat and that at the hands of Emporium on their court. They were defeated by both Kane and Bradford but the winners were forced to play real hard basket ball to beat them. The girls claim victories over Emporium, Eldred, Coudersport, Galeton and Austin. The coach, Miss Frampton, deserves much credit for her interest and work for the team. Pauline Freer and Eldora Ed-green will graduate with the Class of ’27. These two girls have played excellent basketball and will be a great loss to next years team. The students of Port Allegany High School are, and have reason to be proud of the team of 1926-27.

In the spring of 1925 the team that was coached by Professor C. J. Alderfer won the County Championship at the County Meet held at Smethport. The school was presented with a large bronze trophy as a result of this meet. Several County records are held by members of that team. The team of 1926 was also a very successful team, winning from Cou-dersport, Roulette and Salamanca. We regret that we will not have time to put the results of this years track team in the Tiger Lily but the booK goes to press before the first meet. The prospects for this season are very good. Meets have been scheduled with Roulette, Kane and Cou-dersport. Candidates for the various teams are as follows: Dashes—Healy, Grigs- by, Baker and Thomas. Distance races—Ross, Antonson and Rutter. Weight events—Baker, Grigsby, Chisholm, Redington, Burgart, Black, Grabe and Johnson. Field events— Redington, Grigsby, Healy, Antonson, Black, Baker, Thomas. The relay team to date is composed of Baker, Healy, Grigsby, Thomas. These fellows have been practicing very diligently and will be a hard combination to beat. The team this year have new uniforms purchased by the association. Some discussion has been aroused with the object of having baseball next year instead of track. This is a very good idea as the interest in track has subsided for the past few years and the other schools in this vicinity have been playing baseball. In all probability there will be a baseball team next year instead of a track team and games will probably be arranged with Emporium, Austin, Galeton, Olean and other towns.

S alir atyrr Cilji Alunuti Since the publication of the last Tiger Lily, the P. A. H. S. has increased greatly in number. Each consecutive year a comparatively large class graduate from Port High with the class of ’25 still holding the record with a class roll of forty-six. “What are the graduates doing? Has their High School course made any material difference in the success of their life’s work ?” These are questions that any one concerned with P. A. II. S. can answer in a very favor able manner. A large number of our Alumni have advanced to higher institutions of learning, many of whom have made high scholastic as well as athletic records in their various schools. Today we find members of our Alumni engaged in all the leading professions and vocations of the modern world. We must also remember that a large number of our Alumni took part in the world war, many of whom lost their lives in the battle to preserve democracy. It is in honor of our world war veterans that we have dedicated this annual. The students of P. A. H. S. and all interested persons are proud of the good records of our Alumni. Each year the Alumni honor the graduating class with a banquet. These banquets have invariably been successful and are looked forward to by the Alumni as well as the graduating class. The banquet given the class of 1927 was a very well planned and executed function. The officers of the Alumni for 1926-27 are: President,............Mrs. R. H.

These boys made one of the best working combinations that ever represented Port High on the gridiron. Winning every game played they proved a right to their championship. Led by Captain Anderson and coached by Professors Alderfer and Mellinger they completely walked away with every thing that came in their path. Brown at Center was one of the best “Snapper Backs” Port ever had. And his aggressiveness and defensive playing made him a valuable man. Newland and Vandermark at tackles completely paralyzed their opponents when making holes and were perfect at their positions on the defense. Burgart’s 250 lbs. at Guard made a clear path for his charging backfield. Andren’s aggressiveness also made him a priceless asset to the team. Phalin and Huggler held down the wing positions to perfection and were always on the receiving end of Anderson’s bulletlike passes. Barrho at Quarterback was a second “Red Grange.” In nearly every game he would break away for one or two 40 or 50 yard runs for touchdowns. He was one of the highest scorers in the state. Meeker and Abbott were two crack Half Backs and their weight and speed was largely responsible for the high scores. Anderson, Captain and Full Back was an all football man and was the brains of the team. His perfect judgement and assortment of plays dazzled all opponents. His punting, passing and powerful line plunging will never be forgotten. Baker, Ellison, Taylor and Much-ler rounded out a second backfield that could be shifted into action at any moment. While Keagle, Dardenne and Parson made excellent reserve line material. Anderson, Huggler, Burgart and Newland were selected on Clem Flynn’s “All Sectional” team. Today these boys are loyal Alumni, backing every move we make and supporting and working for the high standards of the Orange and Black that they labored to uphold. Following is their schedule: p.

A. H. S. Athletic Association whose brains are responsible for the manipulation of this association for the school year 1926 and 1927. The Athletic Association met during the term of 1925-26 and formed a new constitution. One of the provisions of this new constitution provides for the formation of an Executive Council. This Council is composed of the officers of the general association and the managers of the various athletic teams plus three members elected at large from the association. In order to bring a bill before the entire association it must be brought up discussed and passed by the Executive Council. This eliminates many unnecessary discussions which merely take time in meetings. This council has been in operation for the school year of 1926 27 and has been found very satisfactory. Mr. House, the Faculty Advisor, has taken great interest in the work of this council and it is due to his efforts that athletics have been a success, for the year. 1926-27. ODitr -principal, ,iHr. JMouse Port Allegany has been very fortunate in having the services of Professor H. R. House as principal of schools for the past two years. Mr. House came to Port Allegany from Coudersport. He was Science instructor for a school term before taking up his present duties as principal. Professor House attended Lancaster Junior College in Massachusetts then changed his geographical location to Washington College, Maryland. This aparantly was not sufficient education to satisfy his desires, so he has taken graduate work in George Washington University, Washington, D. C. Mr. House is one of the most popular principals the school has ever had. He does not forget that he was once a boy and is easy to get along with. He can and does use his authority when necessary. His fine sense of humor goes far to make school life enjoyable as well as beneficial to the students. As class advisor of the Senior classes for the past two years he has aided them greatly with his good sound advice and efforts to help make the annual Washington trip a success. One of the best fans in regards to athletics is Mr. House. He is present whenever a game is held when it is possible and is there to see that Port High gets an even break in whatever field it enters. The present high standing of the school is due to Mr. House and we thank him sincerely for his efforts to help the Senior Class and for the betterment of the schools.

HALL, Prop. ¥ I 1 ' K % SHE “TAKES YOUR ORDER” FOR REPAIRS Here is a picture of the Repair Clerk. It is her job to answer your trouble call. Then, the trouble shooter comes out in a hurry, to remedy the ailment. Lots of people get a bit bewildered when something goes wrong with the telephone. Many times they report it to the wrong person, and that delays matters. It's a good thing to know who to call when trouble arises. Go to another telephone, if necessary, and get in touch with the Repair Clerk. 5 He Knows his Telephone! A well'known photographer changed his address and, incidentally, his telephone number. There were all kinds of lengthy explanations he could have made to his patrons. But he didn't. He simply took a photograph of his telephone, with a memo pad telling the story sitting beside it, and mailed it to his customers. The result, shown above, was unique and effective.

Gen. 6-27 1 One Minute cTelephonecTalks LETS GET BETTER ACQUAINTED For years we have been inviting our subscribers to visit their telephone Central Offices in groups and learn what goes on “behind the scenes. The Civic Societies, Church Organizations, Bridge Clubs and other groups who have been our guests on tours through Telephone Land would comprise a large-sized city. Still, we will not be completely satisfied until we show you and your friends what happens day in and day out at our end of your telephone line. We are proud of this business of ours and the organization that handles it. And we know that a brief visit to your Central Office will be highly instructive and entertaining to you. We suggest that you get in touch with your friends and arrange with the Manager of your Business Office for a visit in the near future. 2 METROPOLITAN DEPARTMENT STORES INSTALL SPECIAL TELEPHONE ORDER-RECEIVING EQUIPMENT TO SERVE TELEPHONE SHOPPERS That the Telephone is a vital factor in the merchandising of goods is seen in the fact that many business houses have installed special Telephone Order-Receiving Departments for the service of their patrons. In one Pennsylvania city, five great department stores have installed special telephone order-receiving equipment. In some cases this equipment is manned by as many as thirty-two trained telephone salespeople. It is not the thought of the stores to have 3 the telephone visit take the place of the personal visit. The equipment is meant to serve customers who find it inconvenient to visit the stores on certain occasions. When rain, snow, heat or household duties keep the shopper at home, she simply telephones her favorite store and relies on a trained telephone shopper to send her exactly the goods she wants. The above photograph shows a typical Telephone Order-Receiving Department. 4
