Menfred Tenglund Class Advisors: Mr. Hockenberry Mr. Bates (Assistant) We, the sophomore class, received a royal reception to P. A. H. S., last fall on November 12, when the seniors initiated us into Port Allegany Senior High School. The sophomore class is one that may easily be distinguished from other classes by its size and by its industrious workers. The group has shown a great deal of initiative and interest in all its class activities as well as in all projects which concern the school as a whole. We have done our best in all athletics, placing six of our members on the football team, nine members on the boys’ basketball team, and six of our fair lassies on the girls’ basketball team. The class has done its part in music and dramatics, having several members in the high school orchestra and the glee club, and sponsoring assembly programs which have been appreciated by the entire school. On April 22, the sophomore party was given in honor of the seniors. We are sure that our class will always be one which will do its best to make its high school career a success. Class Colors—Green and White Motto—“Climb high though the rocks be rugged.” Flower—White Rose

(Elje ILtger jBiilg (Dm principal, ittr. IiariHj For three years Port Allegany High School has been capably led by Mr. Hardy, supervising principal of our school. Under his guidance several important changes have been made in the curriculum, which have aided the school in many ways and have given Port Allegany the honor of being among the list of accredited secondary schools of Pennsylvania, of which there are only three in McKean County,—Bradford, Kane and Port Allegany. Professor Hardy was born in Susquehanna County, Penna., and attended high school at Nicholson, Penna. He has spent approximately six years at college, attending the following schools: Wyoming Seminary, Mansfield State Teachers College, Bucknell University and Penn State. Before coming to Port Allegany, Mr. Hardy spent two years teaching in a rural school and twelve as a high school principal. Since coming here, he has ably filled his position, as well as won the respect of all with whom he has come in contact. The three graduating classes during his instruction in Port Allegany will vouch for the fact that he has aided them in many ways in all their class activities. Mr. Hardy takes much interest in all school activities, including scholastic, athletic, dramatic and literary pursuits and social affairs. In fact, Mr. Hardy is an ardent booster of P. A. H. S., and with him as our leader we cannot help but maintain and even raise the standard that has been established in the last few years. National Innumiru j ortety The high school wishes through this issue of The Tiger Lily to congratulate the seniors who attained the honor of admittance to the National Honorary Society. They are: Robert Barnett, Lawrence Bou-don, Bertha Evans, Iver Johnson, Ruth Langworthy and Jean Scherer. Each year from the upper portion of the senior class certain members who possess striking qualities in scholastic ability, leadership, character and service to the school are chosen. We feel sure that these people fully deserve the honor and distinction they have received.
