He has a pleasing disposition and is well liked by his classmates. PHILIP TODD Phil is a literary man of the first water and besides being diarrist on the Tiger Lily Staff is Editor of the Bugle. 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.”

31 uni or Class (Officers First Semester President ............... E. Coleman Vice-President..............G. Healy Secretary ............... R. Johnson Treasurer...................G. 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. Nordstrom Secretary..........................R. Lovell Treasurer.............. A. Dick man Class Advisor............George Nolon Not only were they an indispen-sible class in athletics but socially they were a very active group. 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. Class Flower.....................Rose ......Aim High
