Eugene A. Heim, Rector of St. Mary's Episcopal Church, Reading, to the graduating class of the Reading High School, in the High School Auditorium, on Sunday afternoon, January 19, 1930. O be joyful in the Lord, all ye landsg serve the Lord with glaclness, and come before his presence with il song.-Psalm 100:1-2. I have chosen this text for this special occasion because it contains one of the hnest expressions of religion. If we cannot serve God with gladness, and if our approach to God is without happiness, our religion is weak. I want to speak to you today on the subject, Happiness in Religion. Have you ever heard the story of the dialogue between the cynic and the man of constructive ideas? Said the cynic: I could have made a better world than this. And the other answered: That's what God put you here for. Go and do it.', These last few words form the epitome of the Christian religion. God put you here for a purpose. It is your duty to find out what that purpose is and to go and do it. There is no doubt that if every one did his duty to God and his fellow man, this old world would be a better and happier place to live in. VVe read in the Book of Genesis that when the world and man were created, God pro-- nounced that all was good. If the world is not as good today as it should be, and man has fallen from his high estate, it is due largely to the way people look at life. Some one has said: Life is a peculiar thing. It has come to us without our asking. Vtfe value it differently. To all of us it is precious, but some people love it more than others. We occasionally meet people who want to get rid of it. It so oppresses them. It holds so little 'of joy and happiness for them. It is one long nightmare of toil, hardship and suffering. To other people it is a wealth of joy and happiness. Each day brings new pleasures and responsibilities. It is a ceaseless sou-rce of new and happy things. However, life with its ups and downs, clouds and sunshine, joys and sorrows can, to a certain extent, be made what it is-a source of happiness or a source of sorrow. Life is really our environment. What a difference you can make in your environment. You can take life as an opportunity to do something worth while to improve your surroundings, to bring about more happiness in the world. This is what you should do with life. You should put color into it, beauty into it, cheerfulness and happiness into it, and that is what makes it worth while. lnto the colorless and unromantic places of life some people come like a shower in the desert. Wherever they go they radiate a cheerful influence, and people are made glad for them and are happy at their coming. What this world of ours needs above everything else is a joyful religion. Christianity entered into human life as the religion of happiness. The New Testament, with its story of sin and tragedy, is also the gladdest of books. T H E A R X A L M A 51 IIIIIIIII lllll lllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIliIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIII Illll IlllllIlllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII1 Christmas dawns amidst the singing of angels. Christ comes declaring the Gospel, that is, the good news. And wherever the Gospel touches the hearts of men, joy springs into life. Your religion should brighten your life and make it useful and happy. Re- ligion that is opposed to the happy, gleeful, playful, joyful side of life is a false kind of religion. It misrepresents God. It is not the Christian religion. Christ came to stop sighing, not stop singing. He came to drive away tears, but not to drive away smiles. The world has enough of human woe and sorrow. The idea of a 1nelancholy religion does not harmonize with the happiness in creation. Na- ture is bright. Look, rather, at the radiance and beauty in the world. These are not ugly and gloomy. So God's children should be happy. Make your life a re- Hection of what God would have it be. David Grayson, in his three well-known books- Adventures in Content- ment,'f Adventures in Friendship, and The Friendly Roady'-makes the whole world seem friendly, and as you go along you forget yourself with a spirit of con- tentment that Allis right with the world and God is good. Some one has said, VVhat a happy place this world would be if the spirit which prevails at Christmas could be extended through the whole yearf, At Christmas time people, as a rule, are well disposed towards one another. Old grudges and ill feelings are often forgotten and people try to exercise the feeling of good will. But unfortunately, with many people, that spirit ceases after New Year's Day, and the purpose of life seems to be to care only for one's self. This is a wrong picture of life. Rather picture a world in which there is an unlimited and constantly operating supply of helpful and good influences, in which you have a part and share. It makes the whole outlook of life different. It radiates happi- ness and helps people to forget the sorrowful and unhappy things of life. That is what your religion should do for you. And this is the point that I am aiming at. Religion is not an antidote to happiness. The pleasurable things of life are in harmony with what religion should teach. Christ was opposed to nothing which in an innocent way brought joy and happiness to people. The purest pleasures and the sweetest joys are found through the Christian religion and in an associa- tion with Christian people. VVe all know that there is much that is wrong in the world today. We have to face much sordidness and meanness. But the Christian Church, with its ennobling and refining influence, is here to change that condition. It brings hope and satisfaction into life, and through its followers tries to make all life happier. The church is here to touch every human need and every phase of society. The Christian intention is that every human being shall have a chance. The purpose of the Christian religion is to uplift all lifeg to make good citizens, wise statesmen, unselfish politicians, honest lawyers, conscientious doctors, just judges, prudent housekeepers, industrial mechanics, scrupulous salesmen, public spirited capitalists, intelligent school teachers, and genuine Christians who will not do mean or small things. In other words, the Christian religion is interested in everything that makes for the welfare and happiness of people. You young people of this Class of 1930 have had a hard and a good time in the High School. I say this advisedly. As you go out into the world you will find 541 llllllllll THE ARXALMA IIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIlllIIlllllllllIIIlllIlIlllIIllIllIIIIllllIIIlllIIIIIIIIlIllIIIIllIlllIlllllllIllIllIllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIllllIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIlllIlllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIII Qards nuff 715'-4 LAss Sona 1750 Jana, I Ii Ir.- lltgrl Ra'-17710Y'Ia YI COYHIOHLK 11 - 1 1lo 11 - 1 11 1 - 75111 1 1.5 1 11-1.1 U. 1111 1111 1 rx 1 1 A ! . , 1:1111 1 114111 -11 1' , nvsI1l1111a1.1 111 'C' 1-1 111.x1'1 tlM1r1I1..1r1111 111 11:1.1..1111.1.11v1.111'1 ' 11 1 -11' 1-1 11, .1 -r- l -.' l gr l 1 n 4 l x I I !

ADAMS Zllothers, Fathers, Relatives, and F1'iends.' It is with great pleasure that I, as representative of the Senior Class of 1930 January, welcome you to these our Class Night exercises. We wish to thank the faculty and administration for the splendid assistance that they have given us during our stay at this school. At times they may have resorted to rather harsh means in disciplining us, but now we see that some day we will profit greatly by the lessons that we have learned. I hope that those of us who go to college will be fortunate enough to have teachers as kind, consider- ate, and inspiring as those we have had in Reading High School. With the liberal aid of the faculty, we have composed a program which, we think, you will enjoy, and which, at the same time, will afford us a great deal of pleasure. Again I bid you welcome, and hope that you will enjoy our program. I thank you. CLASS HISTORY BY EVELYN MACLEAN The Class of IQ3OJ2111L121I'y has the honor of being the last class to come from the Old High Schools to the new building. In the winter of 1927 the boys migrated to the old Boys' High and the girls went to the Girls' High School. On a cold, bleak day in early February of 1927 the girls of our class came from their various junior High Schools and assembled in that well-known room of Girls' High, the main room, where they began their careers. Most of their time was spent in the annex of the High School, therefore, they came in little contact with the domineering Seniors. During their stay at Girls, High School, which only was a half year, they won the class track meet honor from the upper classmen. Officers were elected for the class: President, Vera Menschg secretary, Frances Kerr, treasurer, Eleanor Stephens. Evelyn MacLean was elected class representative to the Athletic Association. The last memories of the Eighth and Washington Boys' High go with the boys of our class. Three years ago they came as shy little boys into the hands of the terrible upper classmen. Much time was spent during those first weeks look- ing for the rooms on the fourth floor, and the elevators The one-way stairs to greenies worried the boys not a little. But after a while they got over these things, and the boys in the Cedar Street building spent their time running around for pole-straighteners, stair cases, left-hand monkey-wrenches, etc., but eventually overcame that, too. It was in this building that some of the first fraternal friend- ships and relationships were made among the fellows. During the progress of the semester there seemed to be an impending doom hanging in the halls. It was the dreaded joining with the girls in this building. But the doom came, and the boys seemed to like it, and so here we are! The following semester the girls and boys united to form one class in the Co-ed High School. Our first joint meeting was held September 20, 1927, at which time officers for the class were elected. The officers for the year were: james Todd, president, Thomas Heggarty, vice president, Arthur Miller, treasurer, Russell Haller, secretary. Even in their early career the members of '30 January Class proved their acting ability by taking active part in the plays staged on the evening of May 20, 1928. These budding actors continued to take part in the production of plays within the High School. 56 T H E A R X A L M A Illllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll The class at this time also engaged in athletics, turning out some fine material for basket ball, track, base ball, and foot ball. Besides athletics and play production, the members of the class found time to take active part in many extra curricular activities of the school. On October 10, 1928, this class held a meeting to elect new officers. At this time there was a tie between John Gries and Thomas Adams for the presidency. A re-election was held, and Thomas Adams won. The remaining ofhcers were: Verna Hartranft, vice president, Calvin Klopp, secretary, Isabel Smale, treasurer. Our senior and most important year was opened with these class officers as leaders. The first task of the new year was to select a Ring and Pin Committee, who secured a beautiful ring for us. The Red and Black and Arxalma staff were also elected in this year. Frances Kerr was editor-in-chief of the Red and Black, and Marian Fenstermacher was editor-in-chief of the Arxalma. The rest of the staff included VVilliam Bush, Kenneth Miller, George Bard, Hunter Smith, Robert Heffelfmger, Lawrence Perella, Kent Zimmerman, Edmond Nogar, Calvin Klopp, Barbara Bauer, Dorothy Yoder, Betty Hawman, Rita Boesch, Mildred Powers, Dorothy Kalbach, Manzella johnson, and Evelyn MacLean. The class colors decided upon ,were orange and navy blue. The corn flower and calendula were selected as the class flowers. The class emblem was also selected at this time. This year we were again prominent in the social life of our school. Qn May 14, 1929, another evening of one-act plays was produced with members of our class in the foreground of the activity. Our class also excelled in athletics and scholarship ability, having many members on the Roll of Honor and in the Na- tional Honor Society, besides many others who received their gold and silver scholarship awards. The Seniors held a very successful and original prom, and it is hoped that other classes will profit by our example. This class has many famous students in its midst. Among them are Thomas Adams, outstanding track and foot ball man, Edmond Nogar, noted artist and cartoonist, who has been drawing for the Red and Black since 1928, Kenneth Miller, a well-known actor and promoter of the Seniors' Farewell Assembly, George Bard, famous cheer-leader and humorist. Among the girls we have Verna Hartranft, vice president of our class and an active member on all committees, Frances Kerr, editor-in-chief of the school paper, second girl honor student, and holder of several scholarship awards, Marian Fenstermacher, editor-in-chief of the year book, salutatorian, and the class poet, also winner of several scholastic prizes, and Sarah Rosenberg, an honor roll student, and excellent actress in many of our school plays. Some athletes of '30 January are: Thomas Adams, Donald Deakin, Thomas Heggarty, Lawrence Perella, Kenneth Miller, Harold Montz, Wayne Miller, Ed- ward Muth, Albert Ruhrman, George Arentz. The girls could not bring home laurels in athletics for Reading High, so they did the next best thing and played inter-class games. For the basket ball season of 1928-29 the '30 January girls won the school basket ball championship. In order to maintain girls' athletics, a Girls' Athletic Association, in which our girls played an important part, was organized. Evelyn MacLean was elected president of this organization. As we look back over our sojourn at Reading High we find that our class has made noteworthy history for our Alma Mater, and we hope that future classes, in- spired by our endeavors, will profit by the high standards that we have set.

FENSTERMACHER, Class 1930 january No man is complete without a sense of honor, that outstanding virtue which can raise any one, however humble and untaught, to the ranks of the noble and mighty. VVebster has called it the nicety to distinguish between right and wrong, Vtfordsworth, 'Tis the finest sense of justice which the human mind can frame. But its real importance is still greater, for honor is the unwritten law by which our worth, social and moral, is judged. There is no royal road to knowledge, and neither is there a royal road to a good character. Man is made great or little by his will, said Schiller. Complete self-mastery is the first lesson every one should learn. When we enter Senior High School we are told to stand alone. With an odd feeling of importance at our own capabilities, never realized so clearly before, we re-adjust ourselves as soon as possible to our new surroundings. From the confused precepts of earlier years we choose certain qualities, mental and physical, which compose our own code of what a boy or girl should be. This code is grad- ually changed and revised by our interest in athletics, debating, or by our contact with maturer minds. As we near the end of our high school days, we should have a clear conception of our honor code. We should know the meaning of courage and loyalty, we should grasp the far-reaching value of service, and we should preserve and admire the nobleness of self-respect. Most of us have kindly parents or friends who become our main support in our school days. They protect us from harm and danger, they try to give us an equal amount of work and pleasure, for they want us to enjoy our education, not merely slave at it. And so they deprive themselves of certain privileges and luxuries that we may have more for ourselves. But occasionally we see two or three brave souls among us who are struggling alone. VVitho'ut any other main- stay than themselves, they are earning their way through school. Since most of their time is taken up by work other than lessons, they do not have the opportunity for study to gain excellent grades. Sometimes these few may ask themselves, Is it worth while? Shall I continue my studies, which I have little or no time to prepare, or shall I leave school altogether F If they are courageous enough to admit the truth, they will reply, It,s worth while. I am training myself to be independent of wealth and material possessions. I am able to appreciate the real value of an education because it has cost me an exacting price. I am a friend of people who possess a wide and tolerant view of life, and through them my own standards are becoming finer, and my ideals higher. And although the rest of us look on and admire, thinking that we could do likewise if we wanted to, yet the truth is that we never do it until we are forced to. Nothing develops a strong character so much as suffering hardship and poverty. Saint Paul in an immortal T H E A R X A L M A 59 ll IIIllIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll llll Ill Illllllll IIllIIIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIIllIIIIIIIIIllIIIlIIllIIIlIIllIIllIIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIlllIIllIIIIIIllIlllllllllllllllllllll Il IIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII message to Timothy said: Do not pray for easy lives! Pray to be stronger men! Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers, pray for powers equal to your tasks ! Our loyalty is most frequently expressed by devotion to our school. W'e feel the power of something that is more important and grander than mere self. There are many affairs, such as games and sports, class room activities, parties and dances, that help to unite us into one main body. We work and play under the same careful guidance which tries to expel distinction and foster democracy. The words and deeds of each one of us have a positive effect on the other members of the group, for the touch of life with life spreads both evil and good. To maintain a united and joyous social life, we must not only take from it, but also contribute to it. I am a part of all that I have met, said Tennyson's Ulysses. All of us will give to the school some unknown quality or imprint when we leave, and it is our right to make our school an institution where others will learn how to withstand the trials and duties of life. Service is the expression of an unselfish love. We are often warned of our duties to others, but we hear little of what we owe to ourselves. When a struggle arises between these two kinds of service, it is wrong to think that self-service should always be effaced. Saint Paul once said that every man had to bear his own hurdeng if this is so, then self is a very important factor in life. Neverthe- less, we should not acquire a self-love to the extent that we forget others, for he that saveth his life shall lose it. It is almost impossible to distinguish the bound- ary between self-duty and duty to others. The best thing to do is to trust in our own judgment, and bear the obligation of what may follow. True service never boasts or Haunts. It is done quietly and inconspicuously in the ordinary walks of life. How many of us have families who sacrifice them- selves for our own advantage! They give cheerfully, as though it was expected of them, and ask nothing more than our welfare and success. Self-sacrifice is a wonderful thing when it is offered for a good cause. If we accept our lot with contentment, and try to do as much as we can for others, without demanding more for ourselves, we will be doing a great deal for the welfare of humanity. All the wisdom bred in the learning of ages can be compressed in Shakes- peare's words: This above all,-to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. The desire to become great and to do great deeds is a universal characteristic of human nature. We are made of the same clay, but our lives are molded by various forces. VVithin us we conceal' the differences that give a joy to living. If we follow the crowd, accept what they accept, deny what they deny, believe what they believe, we are cheating ourselves of our own power. As long as we are hindered by fear of what convention will think or say, we cannot find ourselves. But if we speak out bravely to defend and preserve our own thoughts and deeds, we will travel and reach heights undreamed of by smaller souls. Remember, ad- vised Marcus Aurelius, that what pulls the strings is the force hidden within, there lies the power to persuade, there the life, there, if one must speak out, the real man ! 60 THE ARXALMA IIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIlIIIlIlIIIlIIIIIllIlIIlIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll I-IONCR ESSAY iiwhat Will Be My Intellectual Life After Leaving School? FRANCES KERR, Class IQSO January Abraham Lincoln said, I have little respect for a man who does not know more today than he did yesterday. Every day our scope of knowledge should become larger. How can we today say what we will think tomorrow, next week, or next year? Each new book or article changes slightly our attitude and outlook on life. Our high school course is merely a stepping stone toward achievement. It teaches us several elementary subjects and, most important, how to think and reason. But should we be taught how to think? Thinking is the most dangerous thing we can do. Socrates, the great Philosopher, was poisoned because he thoughtg Jesus was crucified for the same reason. Kepler, the astronomer, con- cealed his discoveries seventeen years because if known they might have meant death to him. It, therefore, seems to be most advisable not to think. These men would have been safer had they not thought and expressed these thoughts, but had lived ordinary lives working under superiors. You can not think and obey all orders unquestioningly at the same time, for your opinions will differ from those of your employer and you will question his judgment and frequently do what your own mind dictates, and be punished for it. Employers want only those who will do exactly what they are told without question. Commodore Vanderbilt sent many ships out to sea. He always gave the captain, before leaving port, de- tailed orders of procedure. One captain, while out at sea, saw an opportunity to make for Mr. Vanderbilt 310,000 by disobeying orders and using his own judg- ment, he could gain the money and arrive at port on scheduled time. He seized this opportunity, and when he landed he, much elated, went to his employer and planked down the SI0,000. Mr. Vanderbilt listened attentively to his captain,s story, and, when finished, he handed him back the SI0,000, saying the captain should keep them, but that he was discharged. He had succeeded this time, but what if he had failed? Mr. Vanderbilt wanted only those in his employ who would carry out his orders unquestioningly. NVhat does our thinking bring us-happiness? Hardly. In colonial days, was any one happier than the kindly treated southern negro who lived a life of contentment and ignorance in his small hovel? Is the intellectual man the happier for his learning? Frequently he becomes so involved in his learning that he fails to enter into the joy of living. He no longer sympathizes with his fellow mang they are secondary. No, learning does not produce happiness or contentment. Does an intellectual life bring satisfaction? Is a learned man more satisfied with his life, surroundings, and himself than an uneducated person? No, for often learned men have said that the more they learn the less they seem to know. T H E A R X A L M A 61 lllllllll I I IIIIII IIII llll llllll I I Illllll IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIllIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll Ill llllllllllll IIIIIIII I IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII This is a wonderful world, crammed full of mysteries and problems. It is men- tally and physically impossible to know everything. The scholar soon finds him- self in an impenetrable labyrinth out of which he never comes. A man who cares little about learning is more satisfied, for he does not try to penetrate this labyrinth, but is content to stay where he is. Learning does not then bring satisfaction. lVhat, then, does it do? It gives us breadth of vision. Through scientific knowledge we have learned to tread away from superstitions, the curse of men. VVe have found reason for the phenomena of nature. The causes of storms and volcanoes no longer puzzles us. We learn to make life fuller, to make it worth living. Vlfhat is life for if we gain nothing by it? If we had never changed from the life of ancient Greece, what a monotonous world this would be! Knowledge has done it-knowledge and understanding. Vlfe, seniors, stand on the threshold of life. Beyond are three paths reaching out. Our High School course has tried to help us to choose our path. It has tried to install in us a love for literature, a general knowledge of science, and pro- ficiency in mathematics. For some it has succeeded, for others failed. Those who have acquired but little in the three years spent in this school will probably choose the path to the right. It is smooth and the way is easy. Those who traverse this path have no desire to read and acquire knowledge. At the end of the path is failure and no fame. Down the middle path most of us will travel. It is not so smooth as the one to the right, but the goal is more promising. In High School these people studied some and read some. They took a moderate interest in extra- curricular activities, as athletics, clubs, and class committees. In life they consti- tute the foundation of the nation. Withotit them no nation can exist. At the end of the path success and failure are mingled. Down the third path a few will travel. It is a rough, stony path and bodes no good. Here are those who throughout their High School course were the leaders mostly in scholastic pursuits. These devote themselves to learning. They are the builders. They work for tomorrow, for love of knowledge. Their ideal is high and they strive never endingly. At the end are also success and failure, mostly the latter, a dreadful, hopeless failure, for seldom, until recently, were these strivers recognized as geniuses or brilliant men until after death. Each of us has the right to choose our path. Nobody should try to persuade us one way or another. You who choose the path to the right have chosen a life of ease and contentment. You do not care to study. And why should you not eat, drink, and be merry. Life is short, little enough enjoyment can be gotten from it in so limited a time. For, as Ella VVilcoX has said: Laugh, and the world laughs with you, NVeep, and you weep alone. For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth, But has trouble enough of its own. Likewise, who has a right to quarrel with those who have chosen the middle path? They care to read some, to mingle with their fellow men, to discuss politics 62 THE ARXALMA ' IIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIIII II IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIlIIlIIIllIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIlllllllllll I lllllllll IIIIIIIII Illlllllll I and world affairs. They strive toward a doubtful goal, maybe success, maybe failure. Among them will be found the foundation of the nation, but not the builders. They constitute a most important part. All as architects of Fateg Vlforking in these walls of time, Working in these walls of time, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is, or low, Each thing in its place is bestg And, what seems but idle show, Strengthens and supports the restf, Those who choose the third path long for knowledge. They want neither pleasure or contentment. These constitutes the builders. They spend their time and efforts in making the world better, safer, and pleasanter. They believe as Longfellow said: Not enjoyment and not sorrow Is our destined end or way, But to act that each tomorrow Find us farther than todayf' Let us all join with Holmes in saying: Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul, As the swift seasons roll: Leave thy low-vaulted past! Make each new temple nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast, Till thou at length art free, Leaving thine out-grown shell on Life's unresting sea. .Ti -Q .. HONOR ORATIO ul lovO Far Have l Achieved An All-Round Development ?,, VVILLIAM BUSH, Class 1930 January Education means more than mere book learning. It is preparation for a pleasant, successful, worth-while life, and includes both curricular and extra- curricular activities. The High School graduate can test his education by asking himself, I-Iow far have I achieved an all-round development? That is, have I developed myself as much as possible intellectually, socially, and physically ? Every one of these phases is necessary in later life and a good general education such as the modern high school furnishes should include every one of them. They include every part of the high school activities, although some activities develop more than one phase. T H E A R X A L M A 63 lllllllll lllllllll I I I lllllllllllllll I IIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIllIIllIIllIIIlIIllIIIllIIllIllIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Illlllllll Illllllll III I llll IIIIIIIIII Illlllllllll Schools were first started with only one part of the student's education as their goal: the intellectual. It still is their primary object. It has a double pur- pose: learning facts and developing the mind. Most high school subjects deal with both. Learning facts is necessary mainly in preparation for a professional career. In most cases the high school does not go deeply into this. It gives only a foundation on which further study can build professional knowledge. Mental development gives one the ability to think clearly and decide important questions judiciously. It makes one fit for assuming an important place in the modern community and for fulfilling one's duties as a citizen. It is essential in modern life. It also gives a foundation for an understanding and an enjoyment of art, music, and literature. Subjects that are sometimes regarded as useless have as their purpose the broadening of the mind. Social development, the second phase of an all-round education, gives the ability to succeed in contact with others. It determines whether a person is to be a good employer or employee and whether he can co-operate without friction either in business or pleasure. In a high school it includes more than attendance at social functionst dances and parties. It is further in every class room where there is conversation between pupil and teacher, or between pupils themselves. Extra-curricular activities are very important and work on committees is especially helpful, since it teaches co-operation. It is one of the greatest means of social development in a high school, and, since a fair number can be members of com- mittees, is of much benefit. One's social attitude can be improved even in the halls and auditorium, which are used by large numbers, and where the individual must think of the comfort of others. Then, too, there is instruction in everyday manners. These may touch points, seemingly unimportant, to the individual that are glaring blunders. This all helps to complete the social phase of an all-round development. Physical development, like the social, has wider aspects than are generally thought of. It includes mainly, of course, the physical education classes, which every student attends at least two years. Then, just as important as the classes, are athletic teams. Although only a minority earn letters in sports, almost every boy goes out for and works to earn a position on some team. The physical benefit is enormous. Beside the direct improvement in physical condition, there is the knowledge, gained in biology and other classes, of how to care for one's self. The semi-annual physical examinations check up on the student's health and tend to start the practice of regular examinations that will persist. Some of these may at first thought seem minor details, but they all contribute toward a well-rounded physical development. NN ith all these phases noted, the average high school graduate has an edu- cation that furnishes a good foundation for experience and for other activity. If he has succeeded in acquiring an all-round development, he has everything that is necessary to build a happy, successful life. He will probably become a credit to himself and an outstanding member of his community. Students of high schools now have opportunities for an all-round develop- ment never before given to average young people. It is their privilege and duty to make the best of these opportunities. 641 THE ARXALMA Illlllllllll llllllllllllllllllllllllIIIlllllllllllllllllilllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII I Ill I I I VALEDICTGRY How Do I Spend My Leisure Time? CALVIN T. KLOPP, Class 1930 january Have you ever heard this question, When did' you find time to do that ? A mother with a large family will tell you she did the fine embroidered gift during odd moments. What useless things odd ends appear to be. Yet waste becomes by-product, and dominates the industry which called it from the refuse. Stray minutes in the daily program are irritating to many and regarded as time lost. A student in Berks County studied and mastered a foreign language when there was nothing else to do. Recently a graduate of the High School in a neighboring city saved a large industry thousands of dollars because of observations made while he had the right to loaf. Minutes, here and there, stray and insignificant, day after day, week after Week, grow into months of golden opportunity. The public school program of Reading is being built to enable the student to make the best possible use of his leisure time, those hours not given to sleep, eating, and school attendance, as well as required home study. What shall a boy or girl do with this part of the day? Electricity has given light to extend the day, and then offered conveniences to shorten effort. Out of the same hand came, also, devices to invite for pleasure or amusement. Our school authorities are alive to such calls for attention which crowd a day, for they recognize that some spare time of each day is the sacred birthright of each pupil. Thousands of students carry to the theatre improved powers of observation which enlarge the pleasure and sharpen judgment. The movie may thrill and amuse-but it is also the laboratory for youth. Other use of so-called leisure time is fearfully important to the individual. Some of it may be used for additional study, special assignments, and collateral reading. Therefore, the leisure time of a student ought not be overrun with the weeds of harmful habits nor by despotic demands on the part of the curriculum. For that reason school authorities offer extra- curricular activities to any one who desires to accept them. Any service thus rendered to special ability or particular needs is faithful to the great trust reposed in educational institutions. As a result, debating teams and groups interested in dramtics find the school a laboratory and the teacher a coach. Just as sleeping and eating are unescapable, so play is indispensable. It is criminal to crowd recreation out of any life. Here, the school offers us in our spare moments the type of playing which develops the body and character through team work and co-operation. Youth forever calls to youth because man is a social creature and finds his crowning happiness in friendships. The school also affords place and supervision for social activities in its entertainments and dances. Thus do our teachers become friends, and thus should every need be met with gracious opportunity. The much needed extension of leisure time by providing a class period for quiz and study is more important than words can tell. It re- spects the demands of the home, the call of health, the need for play, the longing of the handicapped, the right for religion, and the initiative of the pupil. The wise use of leisure time will build good habits and cultivate refinement of personality which will go into the future and unlock the treasures back of the doors of leisure time in every tomorrow as it becomes today.

Although the plan failed, we hope that some class in the near future will be able to put it across. It was decided that this year each class should partake in some special pro- ject. The project of the 12B class was a class banquet. This banquet was held on November 22 in the teachers' cafeteria, which was gayly decorated in red and black. The guests included the principal, the vice principals, and the IZB home room teachers. The entertainment was furnished by different members of the class and a peppy jazz orchestra. As a result, every one spent an enjoyable even- ing. Some members of our class assisted the 12A's as ushers on open house night. In the future the Class of '30 June hopes to carry on and better the work of the previous classes. lig--A... CLASS OF '31 JANUARY QHAJ PresidentvStanley Kubacki Secretary--Harold Bowen Vice President-Ani-elia Link Treasurer-Jack Kremer The 11A class entered the Senior High School in February, 1928. Our class was about 200 Strong, coming from the four junior Highs which Reading boasts. The hostile spirit toward each other that we had in Junior High School was now changed into one of co-operation. VVe were timid at first, but gradually we got to know our classmates better. As 10B's we didn't do very much. Some of the boys tried out for various athletic teams, while the girls engaged in field ball, basket ball, and volley ball. Last fall, foot ball, the game of games, was in progress. Our class had a few boys as regulars, namely, G. Wessner, R. Boyer, S. Kubacki, N. Souders, H. Bowen, F. Criscoe, and a few others played on the scrub team. Track brought more laurels to our class, for we helped to make the track season successful. The girls won the championship of the class in basket ball, and most likely would have won the championship of the school if they had gotten a chance to play the twelfth. grade team. In volley ball our class won the championship of the school. In field ball, too, our girls were active, most of them being on the championship team. l?Qil CLASS or ,31 JUNE f11Bj President-Fred Griesemer Secretary-Paul Sehofer Vice President-Allen Smith Treasurer-I,ucille VViate1' VVe, the members of IIB class, entered Reading High School in September, 1928.

There are about 300 pupils in our class. We have two more years at school, and we hope that we can keep on with our fine work-not only in sports, but also in scholarship. By the time we leave school we hope to make our class one of the best classes that ever entered High School. -?TQi1.

Our home rooms, with excellent presidents as leaders, are making very good progress. Some of the different things that the '32 Jan. class excelled in during the semester were the selling of foot ball season tickets and the selling of basket ball season tickets. During thepast term the class has had a banquet at the Y. VV. C. A. They also have had several debates. One of the home rooms of our class won the second prize in the selling of foot ball tickets. In the future, we hope to continue our good work. ?..g-.i CLASS OF ,Z-32 JUNE QIOBQ President-Allen Sherman Secretary-John Lozo, Jr. Vice President-VValter Kiebaeh Treasurer--Jack Pepper The 10B class entered Senior High School September 3, IQZQ. The majority of the live hundred students that make up our class come from the four Junior High Schools in the city. The spirit of rivalry and even enmity that so charac- terized the members of our class when we were in Junior High School was laid aside, and the spirit of co-operation now takes its place. The first few weeks at High School were spent in getting accliinated to the teachers, building, lessons, and the shouts of 'fGreenie! Greenie !'! that greeted us on every hand. The Greenie,' dance, the first event in which we were allowed to take the principal part, was a big success. The majority of the class turned out to prove to the Seniors that, however despicable we may seem, our social instincts have not been undeveloped. Many of the boys of the class tried out for athletics, and some were fortunate enough to gain a position on one of the varsity teams. Although not much responsibility is intrusted to the 10B class as yet, we feel that we have done the two things that are expected of our class, namely: I. We have become acclimated to the school life. 2. We have become organized. 68 THE ARXALMA IIIIIIIIIIIIIII II I II I I II II I II I I I IIIIIII IIII IlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIlIIllIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIII IIIII I I lllll I ll READING CHAPTER OF NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY President-Calvin Klopp Vice President-Edward Mutli Secretary-Sarah Rosenberg Faculty Advisor-Mr. Hayes K. McI.elland The greatest honor that can be given to any student during his High School career is membership in the National Honor Society. Every other honor bestowed is secondary to this one. Membership to the National Honor Society is based on four principles, namely, Scholarship, Character, Leadership, and Service. Each student admitted is carefully examined in these four respects and must rank very high in each. No more than five per cent. of the high junior class, ten per cent. of the lower senior class and Fifteen per cent. of the high senior class may be ad- mitted, according to the by-laws of the constitution. When a student is admitted he his given a certificate signed by the principal and class president, which certifies his membership, and he may then wear a pin or key bearing the emblem of the society. This term the National Honor Society had been inactive until December. The sponsor of the Honor Society, Mr. McClelland, then called a meeting, at which the officers were elected. The members who were to take part in the ritual by which new members were initiated were also elected. The president appointed two committees. One committee was to set the time for meetings, Thomas Leidy was made chairman. The other committee was to see Mr. Lozo and discuss student government, Edward Muth was selected as chairman. The National Honor Society promises to be very active next year, and we challenge all the students of the Senior High School to strive for membership.

The fact that the weekly school paper was in the hands of the student body every Friday morning, giving the news of present school events in well-written articles, was by no means a small contribution to the Reading High School life and spirit. That work, along with this issue of the '30 January Arxalma, helped to make the term one of the most successful in the school history of the school. The co-operation of Mr. Frees and his printing department contributed to the fine production, along with Mr, Arnold's excellent supervision and generalship. We, the staff, have had a most interesting experience in managing these publi- cations, and the useful knowledge and pleasant memories we secured in the work will never be lost. . 70 THE ARXALMA IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII lllllllll llII!l IIIIIII I Illllllll IIIIIII IIIlIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIlIIlIIIllIllIIIIllIIllIllIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll IHIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIII I lllllllll Hllllllllilllllll ll ll RADIO CLUB President-John J.

Many fellows have worked and have succeeded in getting government licenses for transmitting codeg others have achieved certificates. The club meets every other week, when short talks on electrical subjects are given. The club has in its possession a short wave transmitter and receiver. Some of the members go to each other's houses to inspect what the other fellow has in the line of radio appar- atus and to exchange ideas with him. Many of us are trying to assemble small short wave transmitters so that in our leisure hours we will be able to commmu- nicate with our fellow amateurs..

These assessments have been small, as no expensive projects were undertaken. The members divided into two groups-those who wanted to build and Hy model airplanes, and those who wanted to work on and study the Liberty motor which is the property of the club. The meetings were marked by the hum of industry, for the members were constructing and flying many line models. In conclusion, the club has had a very successful season, and it issues a chal- lenge to future clubs to try and attain the high pinnacle it has reached. We owe our success largely to our sponsor, Mr. Gill, who, by his untiring efforts, set an example for us and inspired us to strive for greater success. 72 THE ARXALMA Illlllllllllllli Il IIIIIIIIIIII Il IIIIIII I ll IIIIllIIIIIllIIIIIIIIlIIIIIliIIIllIIIllIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll I IIIIIlllillllllllillllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII I III lllllll IIUIIII THE BOYS, DOUBLE QUARTETTE President-Paul S.

Practice is held be- fore school every Xllednesday morning. The purpose of this club is to train the boys to sing in such a manner that the voices blend in an organ-like fashion. The double quartette has sung at several assemblies and in the play, She Stoops to Conquer. This organization is still young, but it will continue in its progress to reach the goalhthe artistic blending of voices.

This club has been organized to perform practical ex- periments in chemistry, physics, or any other related subject, and to discuss its practical value. At some meetings, reports on scientific subjects are given by certain members and then discussed by the whole club. Mr. Fenstermacher usually gives us some additional information which makes the discussion more interesting. At one of the meetings the experiment was glass blowing and bending. Our sponsor showed the members how to do it, and then the boys tried it alone. Other experiments were exhausting the air in a jar and forming a vacuum, making oxygen, electrolysis, and many others. In the future the club members hope to continue their Work on the experi- ments and take field trips to examine rocks and soils. Trips to nearby factories and other manufacturing plants have been planned. The work has proved very interesting so far, and we hope to make it still more fascinating and worth while. 74- THE'ARXALMA llllllIllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIII II llll IIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIlIIIIIIIllIlllllIllIllIIIllIIllIIIllIIllllllIllIIIllIIllIIllIllIillIIllllIIIIlllIllIllIIllllIIIllIIllIIllIIlllllllllllllllllllllllll IIlllllllllllllllllllllll Illlllllllll HI-Y CLUB President-Kent Zimmermian Secretary-Edward J.

Although many of our members are leaving the club through graduation, interesting meetings and activities have been planned for the rest of the semester. Our club is becoming very popular among the boys-in fact, we have to limit the number of those wishing to enter our organization. The Hi-Y Club is the only High School club for boys that will continue next year having the same members, the only club to have a bank account in a Reading bank, the only one that meets outside of school, and the only one in which mem- bers may be during their whole stay in the High School. All club sessions are held in the club rooms of the Y. M. C. A. Meetings begin at 7.30, except when there is a supper, then they start at 6.15.

Some aeroplane models we are building are baby R. O. Gfs, Bremen, Cecil Paoli, Fokker monoplanes, scale and flying models, gliders, high climbers and endurance models. They are being' constructed with skillful hands under careful supervision. Some of us are working with plans, while others depend on their own knowledge of airplanes. A number of the models are completed and are being flown during the club period in the rear of the workshop. ln the near future members of the club intend to make a trip to Madeira Field. A pilot of that field, Mr. Edward Lamm, offered to take 30 or more members for a ride for 31.50 per pupil. This is the regular S3 ride over the heart of the city. The plane that will take us up is a Waco 9, with a Curtis OX-5 motor with eight cylinders, and We are enthusiastic over this wonderful opportunity. 76 THE ARXALMA IIIIIllIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIllIIllIllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIllIIIIlIIIIIllIIIIlIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIlllIIlIIIIIIlllIIllIIllIIIIIllIIIIIIllIIlIIllIIIIlIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIlIIIIIIllIIllIIllIllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll LIBRARY CLUB President-Nellie Mt-Donouglu Vice President-Ruth Cash Secretary-Ruth Krick Treasurer-Jack Goodman Faculty Advisox-4Miss Maggie Mae Rawls The Ll'b7'U7'j' Club is a, workers' club. Its purpose is to assist in library ac- tivities. During the club period the library is closed to students. This gives the club members an opportunity to do real library work, such as reading shelves, mending books, arranging magazines, and having library lessons. Occasionally the work is varied by a program. If you wish to belong to a good club, and have time for actual work in the library, join the Library Club.

Glancing over the projects accomplished by the various girls, we see school and party dresses, princess slips, pajamas, and various other articles of feminine apparel. VVe also see embroidery work and boudoir furnishings, such as curtains, bureau scarfs and pin cushions. Another project in which we were greatly interested was the making of Christmas gifts. Each girl made a small gift the price of which did not exceed fifty cents. At the last meeting before Christmas the gifts were exchanged among the members of the club. To make the club sessions more interesting, the Program Committee arranged programs for each meeting. These programs included original stories, poems, and other suitable offerings that the girls chose to give.

On Thursday evening, December 12, there was a demonstration, held at the school, at which we sang. VVe are practicing a few numbers for the spring festival which Mr. Smith is planning. VVe find our work in the Glee Club even more enjoyable and enlightening this term than before. We try to follow the admirable principle of co-operation. Come and join the Girls' Glee Club, there is always room for one more. Perhaps you have a good voice and don't know it. In this organization you will develop your voice in all phases.

Mickey Moodhard was again chosen to lead the Girl Reserves through an- other successful season. This year we have a lot of greenies,', who have been doing good work. They were a little bashful at first, but they are glad now that they decided to join us. Several weeks ago, at the Y, we held a supper that was certainly new and different. It was a Backwards Supper. The girls wore their clothes back- wards and talked backwards. VVe had our dessert first, ate with the wrong end of the spoon, and sat with the back of the chairs facing the table. VVe also had several hikes, which were enjoyed by all. During National Fel- lowship Wfeek we had a special program in which we sang the national songs of several countries. On December 27th we held a formal dance at the VVoman's Club. We had a good orchestra, and it was a grand and glorious affair.

Rofkar Der Deutsche Verein is a club organized for the purpose of becoming better acquainted with German customs, dress, geography, history, literature, and art. VVe meet regularly on club days in room 202. Our enrollment is rather small, but we are striving to enlarge it as time goes on. However, we are not allowing our fewness in number to become an obstacle to the activity of the club. In fact, each one of us can enjoy a degree of participation which all clubs cannot afford. Each meeting is opened with the repeating of 4'Vaterunser, the German version of the Lord's Prayer. To date, we have enjoyed a number of very interesting talks by various club members. Each one tries to contribute as much as he or she can to the success of the program. Mildred VVinkler, our secretary, gave us a very entertaining account of her visit to Germany, showing us a number of inter- esting pictures and curios. Our president spoke to us about the celebrated musical composer, Beethoven. At another session we were entertained by a talk on that interesting German statesman, Herr Stresemann. At one meeting Mr. Rofkar played some German phonograph records made by such artists as Alma Gluck and Schumann-Heinck. The Christmas meeting was, of course, devoted to NVeihnachtslieder fChris'rmas songsj and stories. 82 THE ARXALMA IIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllillllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllll TI-IE ORCHESTRA Many people seem to find their way to the auditorium during the second period. They are attracted, no doubt, by the sounds issuing forth, for the or- chestra is practicing. As a proof that musical talent in this school is quite prominent, we have a junior orchestra and a senior orchestra, both of them directed by Mr. Goodhart, and meeting in school hours. The senior orchestra is the one you hear in assembly, while the junior or- chestra, which meets the sixth period, is composed of scrubs who will in the future gradually replace those members who graduate.

Mood The Public Speaking Club deals mostly with the proper forms and methods of speech-making, and the members seriously try to put into practical use the valuable information learned in club meetings. It is customary to place the club meeting in charge of a different chairman at every session. This chairman then appoints a group to make speeches on selected topics. They are told how a good public speaker would use his notes, what his posture would be, in what manner he would prevent his story from be- coming dry,,' and all other qualities that make a successful speaker. Often extemporaneous speeches are given on topics chosen by the chairman, and sometimes club sessions are devoted to one particular subjectg for instance, humor or any informal debate. At every meeting a critic is appointed, and this person points out the strong and weak points of the arguments or talks Learn- ing how to address an audience is one of the objectives of our club, and another is to cure a speaker of uneasiness before a crowd. The work of this semester has proven itself useful in more ways than one, and the members will earnestly endeavor to continue their good work. 844 T H E A R X A L M A llllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllll Illllllllll IIIlllllllllllllIIlllllllllllIllIlllllIllIllIllllIllllllIllllllllIIlllIIllllllIIIIlllllllllIllIIIIlllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIlllllIIIIlllIIllIIlllIlllllllllllllllllllll llllIlllllllllllllllllllll SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB PresiclentfHenry Heilman Secretztry-Kent Zim-nlernlan Vice President-Grace Baer Treasurer-George Bard Faculty Advisor-Mr. YVillard Mohn Under the leadership of Mr. Mohn, we feel that our work this year has cer- tainly been worth while. During the first few club periods of the semester we read some one-act plays. Then we discussed what we were to put on in assembly November S. Mr. Mohn chose three of these plays which we liked the best, and asked us to pick the one which we thought the students and teachers would enjoy most. In the Spring a Young Man's Fancy was chosen almost unanimously. After this we spent all our club sessions in try-outs and rehearsals for the play. As the time drew nearer and nearer, we practiced and worked harder than ever in order to make the play a success. Eddie Nogar found himself making love in his sleep, and some of the pretty nfs had a hard time remembering that, after all, Eddie was only acting. The day of the presentation dawned rather gray and cloudy, but the weather did not seem to keep the school from enjoying our entertainment. At the end of the play Grace Baer and the boys whom she trained swept in and gave us a dance, which, we are sure, increased the audience's delight ten-fold. XVe experienced the unusual thrill of giving a second assembly presentation. This time we put on the Xmas play, The Two Dicks, a ripping comedy. The audiences hilariously helped Marie Heim and Hlfddien solve some of Cupid's problems when Isabel Hickman and Anna Pelson came to fists attempting to iden- tify the twins, Heath and Harvey. Assembly had a merry Xmas. We hope to use more of our excellent dramatic material in other public plays. The purpose of this club is to afford practical experience on the real stage rather than stunts and dramatic games which are often found in dramatic clubs.

All the club pic- tures in the Arxalma were taken by the chief photographer of the club, William P. Sheffler, and his assistant, Rudolph Bernhalter, and the finishing was done by the club members. Several pictures of scenes from plays presented during assemblies were printed in the Eagle. These pictures were taken by the Clubis new Sxlo F4.5 lens camera, using three powerful photo-lites for the inside exposures. The club has one well equipped dark-room, and it is hoped by next year that a second dark room will be finished. This will consist of two separate rooms, one for film developing and the other for printing and enlargements. The policy of the Camera Club is to further the knowledge of photography, amateur photo finishing, group work, portraiture, and trick and copy work. 86 THE ARXALMA llllllIllIlIlllllIIIIIllIIlIIIIlIIIllIIIIIIllIIllIIIlIIllIIIIllIlIIllIIIIlIllIIllIlIllIlllIIllIIIIlIIllIIIlIllIIIllIIIIIllllllIIIllIIIIIIIIIlliIIlIllIIIIllIIIIIIlIIIlIIIIIIllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll A , THE SCRIBBLERS' CLUB President+VVoodrow Maloney Vice President-Madge Deiffenbach Treasurer-Marietta Martin Secretary-Elizabeth Rapp Reporter-Grace Ertel Faculty Advisor-Miss Mildred Runyeon This semester The Red Pen, the school magazine, has undergone some radical changes. By a popular vote of the members of the club, several standards were agreed upon in the publishing of The Red Pen. Beginning with the October issue, the size of the publication will be 5 inches by 7 inches. The cover design is symbolic, depicting a pen drawn through the school seal. Through co-operation with the printing department, the club is al- lowed to publish three magazines of not more than thirty-two pages in length per semester. The Red Pen is edited entirely by the members of The Scribblers' Club, who belong to the Pennsylvania Student Press Association, and is the only non-subscription school publication in Pennsylvania.

The usual procedure of reading plays, discussing actors and actresses, stage technique, and recent stage productions is followed. To commemorate Armistice Day, the club read We Must Keep the Faithf' As a Hallowe'en program, the club participated in an operetta called f'Katrina's Party. The leading characters were Brom Bones and Ichabod Crane, who was again frightened by the appearance of the headless horseman. In an Efficiency Play, in which no character speaks more than a word at a time, Jeanette Maurer proved the dramatic force of single words properly ex- pressed. A play called Fate was written by George Snyder. The club presi- dent, who has written many plays, contributed The Ministerls Hat. The freshmen are anxious to appear in the limelight, and four members of the club anticipate producing Overtones in assembly early in January. The club secretary appeared in the all-school play, She Stoops to Conquer. The re- maining members of the club hope to take part in a public performance in the near future.

The club has also produced leaders who take a lead- ing part in their gym classes and aid the gym instructors. The club has been divided into two groups, the first consisting of the upper classmen and the second consisting of the IOB girls. The first section was in- structed in the fundamentals of refereeing, while the other section became ac- quainted with new games. The refereeing group had practical experience in refereeing the 10B games. Mquch valuable experience may be gained from a club of this sort, especially by girls planning to take up physical education as their life work. TALICE ERDMAN, News C ommittee.

Many plays were reviewed and discussed and Sauce for the Goslingsl' was presented in the assembly. In the beginning of the term a program committee was selected to take general charge of the club sessions and to select good programs with which to entertain the club. A credit committee was also appointed to take charge of the credits and to see that a pin was awarded to those members receiving fifty credits. All the members have gained practical knowledge, since the meetings have given valuable information about plays and their presentation. 90 THE ARXALMA lllllIIIIlIIlIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll ll Il IIllIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIlIIllIIllIIIIIIIlllIIllIIIllIllIIllIIIIIlllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIII1IIllIllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIII I Il IIIIIIIII TRAVEL, NEEDLE, TRAVEL-NEEDLEVVORK CLUB President-Amelia Link Vice President-Margaret Birch Secretary-Violet Eshhach Treasurer-'Sarah Ziegler Faculty Advisor-Miss Elsie M. Eidam The true spirit of Christmas gripped the hearts of the girls of the T. N. T. this semester. Instead of devoting all our time to making handkerchiefs, towels, pillow tops, and the other dainty novelties for ourselves, we used many of our meetings in making toys and trinkets to be taken to the children's wards of the local hospitals to amuse the children. One group dressed dolls, large and small, celluloid and china, some in fancy crepe paper, others in silks, satins and velvets, some as grand duchesses, others as babies and children. At the same time another group was learning to make saucy little dogs of red and white checked gingham, with funny black paws, black button eyes, and all sorts of curly tails. These were soon followed by cunning kittens made from silk stockings of various colors. Everybody was kept so busy and so interested in the work that our Program Committee soon abandoned all plans for any form of entertainment while we worked. As meetings were held only once in two weeks, we were not able to accom-- plish as much as we had hoped to, but we all felt that we enjoyed our own Christmas twice as much because of our attempt to spread cheer to the unfor- tunate kiddies.

The club had thirteen members, all of whom expect to enter some field of nursing. Under the leadership of Miss Bucks, the girls learned hospital bed-making, and time was allowed for practice. Some of the girls gave talks and demonstrations on the use of triangular bandages, others spoke about the various fields of nursing and the qualifications and entrance re- quirements. Several girls brought booklets which they prepared on the subject of nursing. A few phases of health were also discussed as a contribution to the future nurses' fund of knowledge. The club visited each of the three local hospitals during the term. ln going through these institutions, the girls came in contact with a few of the many daily occurrences of the hospital life. At one of the hospitals the directress of nurses told us some of the entrance requirements. At another we saw X-ray pictures and an appendix was cut up and explained to us. Near the end of the term Miss Bucks gave a demonstration, by request, of the proper way to bathe a baby. It would have been more interesting if we had had a real baby, but we had to use Pat, our doll. The club is a helpful one for those interested in nursing, and we hope to see more girls out for the Nurses' Club next term.

The band holds its meetings during the club period and many times in the morning before school. The band, we are sure, will be- come one of the leading organizations if the whole-hearted co-operation of the school and those who are eligible to play is given.

For the first time since coming to the new school our boys scored more points than their opponents. All games played at home were won, but away from home two were lost and one tied. Although we did win six games, Reading scored only ,510 in con- ference games, as the games lost and tied happened to be conference battles, and only two of the games won were conference games. Reading had little trouble in defeating Thomas Patton, Minersville, Hanover, and Stevens Trade, but much more energy was needed in subduing Lancaster and Gettysburg. The game was truly fought to a draw at VVilliam Penn and at Allentown. The Allentown boys got the ttbreaksf' however, and out- played Reading to win. At Easton the opposing team uncovered a passing system wlgich bewildered our team and scored three touchdowns in ten minutes. After that we settled down and clearly outplayed Easton, but not enough to win the game. The summary for games is as follows: Thomas Patton, 9g Reading, 32 Gettysburg, Og Reading, li Allentown, 13, Reading, 0 Easton, 18, Reading, 'T Minersville 7, Reading, 26 Hanover, Og Reading, 20 Lancaster, 6, Reading, 13 Stevens Trade, 2g Reading, 39 XVilliam Penn 7, Reading, 7 Totals: Opponents 53, Reading, 150 The scrub team, coached by Mr. Sehweimler, played local semi-pro teams and scrim- maged against the varsity in practice.

VVhile we have not won all our league games, we are well up among the leaders, and should be able to give them a hard battle. We have, however, topped last year's leaders in two leagues, namely, Tamaqua and East Stroudsburg. The team will remain in- tact even after mid-year graduation, a fact which is very unusual. This should prove a decided boon to us. We are expecting some new material from the Junior High Schools. This should bolster our chance for next season, when the services of a number of our players will be lost because of graduation.

On September 29, 1929, the team entered in the Recreation Meet at Albright Stadium. Four prizes were offered, three of which were taken by Reading High men. On November 7th Reading High ran against Allentown at George Field. Good, a veteran runner for Reading, shattered the record time set by Russell Mengel in 1926. During this meet Goodis time for the difficult 6.3 miles course .vas 24 minutes and 35 seconds. Coach Manny Jacobs' clan outclassed the Allentown squad by the score of I6 to 42 flow score winningl. Reading just missed a perfect score of I5 when Cirisco, of Allentown, nosed out Levan, of Reading, for fifth place. Again on November I3 the cross-country team showed its heels to the enemy, this time Bethlehem. Coach Jacobs' squad had a score of 18, while Bethlehemls total was 37. Klein clipped six seconds from Good's record the following week, during the Bethlehem meet, lowering the time from I4 minutes 35 seconds to I4 minutes 29 seconds for the three-mile course. Reading defeated Easton in the cross-country match which was held before the game on November 16. The meet was close and exciting throughout, since the Easton course was so short. This steady running and finishing so consecu- tively won the meet for Reading with the score of 26 to 29. Throughout the season the success of the team has been due to Long, Good, Klein, Levan, Seibert, Barr, Hahn, Miller, Schumacker, Shields, Frantz, Ritzman, Rubright, Dissinger, Heath, W. Brown, Vtfelder, Jones, J. Hartline, and Louis. Straus and Evans, managers. All these men will be lost to next year's team except a very few. Robert Klein has been elected as next year's captain. His record this year qualifies him for next year. In spite of the heavy losses, a good team is expected.
