Ha ssmlttanna Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-nine VOLUME II PUBLISHED BY THE CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINE SALTSBURG HIGH SCHOOL SALTSBURG, PA. Education is of an importance almost supreme in the lives of a people, giving not only the will to do things but also a fine sense of the appreciation of things that are man-made and of those that are made by God: Wherefore a sense of gratitude leads us to most respectfully dedicate this LaSaltianna 1929 to the Great Public School System of America. We, the Class of 1920, wish to thank everyone who has helped in the publication of this book, especially Wesley Snyder, who so graciously consented to do the Art Work which appears in I.

M. JOHNSTON Supervising Principal Grove City College 1925, B.S. Indiana. Pa. “My master hath been an honorable gentleman; Tricks he hath had in him which gentlemen have. These lines from Shakespeare describe not only the opinion of the Class of Twenty-Nine but also all those who in any way have served or fallen under the guidance of Mr. Johnston during the past four years. I'he Class is proud that they have had his leadership all through their high school course and the influence he has exerted on them will go with them throughout their entire lives. We are sorry to lose Mr. Johnston from our school and from our town and community and we realize that his untiring services will be greatly missed. I he best wishes of students, teachers, parents, and friends go with him to his new field, where we feel our loss is their gain but where we are sure still greater success awaits him. r°0e ten 1929 LA SALTIANNA Maude L.

R. ’29 Page twelve 1929 LA SALTIANNA — ■ ■ = HARRY CAMPBELL Treasurer 1, 2; Class Basketball 1; French Circle 3, 4; President History Club 3; President 4; Cheer leader 4; Business Manager LaSaltianna 4. Behold our honorable and esteemed President! When he is not attending to his various official duties or cheering our basketball team on to victory he can usually be found in the near vicinity of a certain “jeune personne” not unknown to our class. We might add that Harry is Business Manager of this Book and has done much in making it a success. . ALICE G ETHRIDGE Track 1; Glee Club 1, 2; Vice-President 1, 2, 4; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; “In Cherry Time” 4; Editor Salt Shaker 4; Senior Editor LaSaltianna 4. Here’s to our Alice! Brilliant! Popular! Witty! you simply can’t find words to describe her. She takes 30 much interest in everything. “When a feller needs a friend, Alice is Johnny on the spot’’ always willing to help to the best of her ability. DICK RAY Basketball Reserves 1, 2, 3; Basketball Captain 4; “College Cinderella” 3; Track 2; French Circle 3, 4; “In Cherry Time” 4; Treasurer 4. At his present speed Dick will probably take a degree in Bluffology for he is original, witty, and capable of putting the most cantankerous teacher in a good humor. Why is Dick so well liked? Is it because he is so friendly without being condescending? Is it because of his happy go-lucky, carefree nature? Yea, verily, and then some. VIOLA KING Secretary French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; “College Cinderella” 3; Secretary 4; Librarian 4; “In Cherry Time” 4; Joke Editor I aSaltianna 4. Viola will never be remembered in Saltsburg High as one who “came silently, unheard and silently went on her way,” for she giggles, laughs, and chatters as she goes and she goes on forever. “All ’us equal to any occasion,” that’s Viola! Full of pep and vivacity! Her favorite enjoyment—riding in a Dodge “avec un certain jeun homme.” Page fourteen 1 929 LA SALTIANNA PAULINE ALLENBAUGH Secretary 3; French Circle 3, 4; Activities Editor La-Saltianna 4; Health Club 4. She takes her lessons seriously does Pauline, and her report card gives its own reward. But when textbooks are forgotten and school is a “has been” then one finds in Pauline a most companionable character, the possessor of a peppy spirit, of an indefinable charm that endears her to her friends. j I-ENA BERGMAN Vandergrift 1; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Exchange Editor Salt Shaker 4. Whether they named her for the Lena River in Siberia or—sentimentally—for that dear old melody “Go to Sleep, Lena Darling” has never been disclosed for she keeps family secrets to herself. We should like to recommend her as a fitting wife for some struggling young preacher, for his “divine fire” and her “divinity fudge” would make an ideal combination. EMILIE Glee Club 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4. Happy are those who are gifted with perpetual good humor. Nothing daunts Emilie! Sweet but not sugary; peppy but not tiring; very agreeable. Emilie would make an excellent suburbanite for she has grown accustomed to commuting by her twice daily treks on the “Iron Horse” from Livermore to Saltsburg to attend our famed “Temple of Learning.” ROBERT BURNETT Class Basketball 1; Glee Club 1; French Circle 3, 4; History Club 3; Orchestra 2, 3, 4; Manager Basketball 3; “College Cinderella” 3; “In Cherry Time” 4; Editor-in-Chief LaSaltianna 4. Clash of cymbals, grand flourish of trumpets! Enter Roberto Burnetto, the leader, possessor of a “three-decker” brain, and a magnetic personality. Silence! I et the “big medicine man” be heard,—With my own amazing ability have I done it—I act—I sing—-I write—I play the “jazzy sax” there is nothing impossible, no object insurmountable. Hear! Hear! 1 1929 Page fifteen LA SALTIANNA ALICE COFFMAN French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4. “Beware of the quiet ones!” Alice’s reputation for silence and unobstrusiveness would make a clam blush. But secretly she cherishes the commendable ambition to be a writing teacher and if her beautiful penmanship is any prophecy she’ll be a success in her chosen field. ELIZABETH CUNKELMAN Glee dub 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Alumni Editor Salt Shaker 4. “A daughter of the Gods divinely tall and most divinely fair,” and yet it is Elizabeth’s dearest wish that she were a “petite brunette.” She worries quite a lot about her lessons and yet stands very high with “the powers that be.” For an example of a good student, a true friend and confidant “Bettina” might well be chosen, as shown by the h:gh regard in which she is held by her fellow classmates and friends. HELEN FENNELL Librarian 1, 2, 3, 4; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Circulation Committee I aSaltianna 4. Always ready to do her part that’s Helen! “When a feller needs a friend” Helen can be counted on every time. Precise, neat, every line in its place, hair curled just so—she will make some one a marvelous housekeeper and helpmeet. If music hath charm to sooth the savage beast Helen is on the lookout for one because there is always a melody at her finder tips ready to peal forth as she sits down to “tickle the ivories.” JACK FRANKLIN Basketball Reserves 1, 2; Basketball 4; Glee Club 2; “College Cinderella” 3; Advertising Committee LaSalti-anna 4. This black-haired young gentleman is the fortunate possessor of an enigmatic personality. He has a disarming smile, an engaging manner that draws around him an ever-increasing number of friends. Perhaps our “Jaques” is rather unlucky in studies but if certain stories are authentic he makes up for it in love. Page sixteen 1929 LA SALTIANNA jCHARLES GOSNELL Charles is our rising politician. We wouldn’t be surprised to see him in years to come haranguing the populace from some lofty balcony on a pressing political question. An ardent student of Problems of Democracy he has lately taken to reading the lighter literature— “Sociology and Modern Social Problems”—Economic History of the United States” and even “Political Prob lems of America.”—“Professor, how could you!” ELIZABETH GOSNELL Glee Club 1; French Circle 3, 4; Health Clu| 4. “Libby”—blue eyes, chestnut hair with curls achieving a tempestuous appearance—and when her bewitching giggle is heard one knows that some delightful tid-bit of gossip has reached appreciative ears. If the sky fell, “Libby” would come “smilin’ through” calmly asking, the excitement?” She hasn’t anything against studying but she asks—why bury yourself in a dry textbook when there are so many, many more delightful things to do? GEORGE GRANTZ If Ulysses had ridden in a Ford instead of a ship Georgie’s autobiography would read like an Odyssey. But even Ulysses couldn’t quite duplicate George’s skill in changing tires and manipulating spark plugs on a refractory flivver. His line is Science and we wouldn’t be surprised if he should startle the world some day with some amazing discovery—that is if he doesn’t blow himself up in the meantime. •J EARL GREECE Dark, almost to swarthiness is Earl, recalling to mind chivalrous Spanish noblemen, possessors of fiery spirits, and temperamental characters. Reserved, quiet, always busy with his own thoughts; few of us know him well, but to the chosen few Earl is a staunch friend, an ever-ready sympathizer, a true comrade. 1929 Faye seventeen LA SALTIANNA STANLEY KELLY French Circle 3, 4; Basketball 4. Stanley is one of those good-natured, congenial, easygoing chaps who falls heir to many a job just because of his evident willingness. “Something is always taking the joy out of life” and in Stanley’s case it’s French verbs, those elusive endings that do have a maddening faculty for being absent when most needed, are the bane of his existence. ANNA KRIVONIAK Glee Club 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Interviewer Salt Shaker 4; Circulation Committee I aSaltianna 4. Irrepressible, unsquelchable Anna! “May her shadow never decrease.” The bane of her teachers but the joy of her friends! Witty, gay, giggling Anna. Does she ever take anything seriously? Mais GUI! Underneath that happy-go-lucky exterior one finds a really cool, clever, capable character; one who can accept responsibilities and them through with a bang! Elle parle beaucoup. LUELLA LONG Glee Club 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4. “Gentlemen prefer blondes,” said one writer, and when one sees Luella one knows why. Blue eyes, flaxen hair, and a pleasing manner has Luella. She is, in addition, one of our most enthusiastic exponents of the gentle art of studying and devotes a large share of her time to textbooks. But just start a little music and bang goes the textbooks and Luella’s on her toes looking for a partner “to trip the light fantastic.” JOHN McPHILIMY Orchestra 2, 3, 4; Basketball Reserves 2, 3; Basketball 4; “College Cinderella” 3; French Circle 3, 4; Business Manager of Salt Shaker 4; Advertising Committee La-Saltianna 4. This boy with the flaming hair is a strong believer that “variety is the spice of life.” Who wouldn’t be such with that combination—sea-green eyes and red gold hair? Johnny is the type one likes to meet in the halls, on the street, in fact anywhere—for he’s always ready with a cheery smile and a friendly “Hello.” Page eighteen 1929 LA SALTIANNA ANASTASIA RABICKOW Donora 1, 2, 3; Health Club 4; Stenographer Salt Shak er 4. Anastasia having: exhausted all the educational facilities of Donora came to Saltsburg to graduate. A bit of old Russia is she, bringing to mind Cossacks stamping and swaying to weird music, their feet encased in shiny boots, and—speaking of boots have you noticed the eye-catching pair that protect our “Nellie’s” pedal extremities from the biting frost and cold north winds? WILSON RHEA Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Basketball 4; Sports Editor Salt Shaker 4; Advertising Committee LaSaltianna 4. Noted among a favored few for the way he can drive a Chevrolet at break-neck speed as calmly as the rest of us eat a chocolate sundae. Very adept at turning curves on two wheels, and an ardent advocate of the theory of “stepping on the gas.” “Beanie” has thus far miraculously escaped a court summons. THELMA ROSENSTEEL Glee Club 1, 2; Track 1; Secretary 1, 2; “College Cin derella” 3; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Circulation Committee LaSaltianna 4. If Clara Bow has “it” then this blue-eyed lass has a large share of “that, them, and those.” Demure and sweet, never boring one with too much chattering or disappointing one with too little. Pleasing and attractive to the eye. Thelma has had her share in wounding the hearts of our high sc hool Romeos but the wound is never too deep nor too last’ng to harm. EARL RUPERT Track 1, 2, 3; Basketball 3, 4; Circulation Committee LaSaltianna 4. Tall, broad-shouldered, athletic. Earl brings to mind tales of strong gladiators thrilling Roman crowds with deeds of valor and courage. Very popular with basketball fans. With all his strength “Rupe” is very peaceful, only now and then being provoked into quick outbursts of temper which soon pass over, leaving him even more calm t.ian before. 1929 Page nineteen LA SALTIANNA J Joseph scorr Track 1, 2, 3; President 3; Orchestra 3, 4; French Circle 3, 4; “In Cherry Time” 4; Circulation Manager LaSalti-anna 4. This is Scott. You don’t know him, you can’t know all of him. Scott is many-sided, versatile. He acts, plays the banjo, and is a speaker of no mean ability. The opinions he has often make the rest of us sit up and take notice. He has that faculty of probing a problem to the very foundation and then analyzing every atom of it until satisfied. Interesting. 1 ROBERT SHIRLEY French Circle 3; Advertising Committee LaSaltianna 4. I arge, dove-like eyes has our Robert, but they are misleading. Although meek and gentle in appearance he has been known to cause quite a disturbance in French class and quite a few arguments in mathematics, by the way —that’s his hobby, mathematics—and like Holmes we can say— “That boy with the grave mathematical look. VIRGINIA SHIRLEY Glee Club 1, 2; Orchestra 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4. A musical Miss is Virginia, capable of drawing forth fairylike melodies from her violin, but withal quie and retiring so that few are well acquainted with her. Virgil is her hoodoo for in spite of piteous pleas, Jupiter fails to endow her with the secret of understanding Latin. { 1, 2, 3; JAMES STEWART Track 1, 2, 3; Basketball Reserves 1, 2. 3; Glee Club 2; Orchestra 2. 3, 4; French Circle 3, 4; Vice-President 3; Basketball 4; Sports Editor LaSaltianna 4. Here is a fellow who always seems to be just getting ready for a nap. napping, or just awakening from one. He has a slow lazy drawl that suggests waving palms and leisurely caravans meandering slowly across the desert. But at times Jim is very wide-awake and during those moments he accomplishes a great deal. Page twenty 1 929 ANNA VENSEL Glee Club 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Senior Reporter Salt Shaker 4. Anyone who knows Anna is aware of her pep, her dash, and her never-failing: sense of humor, and her boy friends. One day she’ll be in rhapsodies and the next day her feelings are laconically expressed thus—what’s the use of falling: in love? In spite of her affairs de la coeur, Anna is one of our best students when it comes to heavy assignments.

We Seniors have made four flights during our high school life hut they are figurative only and no one thinks of linking our names with that of Lindbergh. We took off in our plane Freshman on the first Monday in September, 1925. Our passenger list would have done credit to one of the huge planes of the present day for it totaled fifty-three. The first term was our “Trial Flight ; then it was determined whether we were skilled enough to venture higher up. Fortunately we made the grade and our instructors passed us on to the next class. We had been steered safely through that trying flight by our chief aviator, Clifford Cunningham; his assistant, Alice Guthridge; secretary, Thelma Rosensteel: and treasurer, Harry Campbell. The last of May we landed and our plane was taxied into the hangar and the doors locked for three months vacation. Xext year our plane had acquired the name Sophomore. We retained the same officers for they had acquitted themselves so well the preceding year that we placed absolute trust in their ability. Many of our passengers this year entered into the various school activities. Two violinists, a banjo player, and a guitarist represented the class in the High School Orchestra which had been organized that year. Several girls joined the Glee Club and we were very well represented on the Boys’ Basketball and Track teams. That flight was very successful. We had established ourselves firmly in the high school. Our third flight came none to soon to many of us who had our hearts set on that goal—that reward for which we had expended so much time and effort—Graduation. When we boarded the Junior we realized that our responsibilities were indeed greater, that we were now upper classmen and as such it was our duty to live up to our school standards. Carefully we chose our pilot and assistants. Joseph Scott was elected chief officer; James Stewart, his assistant; Pauline Allenhaugh, secretary; and Mike Prassak, treasurer. As Junior passengers we took a great part in the activities attending our flight. One of our fellow classmen was appointed manager of the Basketball Team, others were members of the Track and Basketball squads. Again the Orchestra was benefited by the musical talent of our aviators and = Page twenty-two 1929 LA SALTIANNA passengers. The cast of A College Cinderella. presented that year, was largely composed of Juniors. Finally, we took off for our fourth and last flight. Our passenger list had dwindled to twenty-nine, slightly more than half of our number when we took our trial flight, but yet our class has the largest membership of any class which has ever graduated from Saltsburg High School. They say “There is strength in numbers” and perhaps that accounts for the great amount of work we have accomplished this year. As Seniors we stand first in school activities. The Basketball Team was mainly composed of Seniors. All the officers of the French Club are from our class. Six Seniors are on the Staff of the Salt Shaker, our high school paper. The cast of “In Cherry Time,” our high school play, was drawn principally from the Senior Class. Our flight is drawing to an end. Too soon we must land and leave our Senior plane all together. We cannot express our appreciation to the teachers who have guided and directed us from the time of our trial flight up till now. We are sorry to leave our friends and break the ties that bind us so closely together. Instead of one common airplane each member of the class will now pilot his own individual craft. We are ready to take our “Solo Flight,” alone and unaided. Our place is relinquished to the Juniors Whether their flight will be so successful as ours lies in the dim. dark, distant future. But we all agree that they will have a difficult time because of the high altitude mark set by the Senior Plane of ’29. Senior Class Flower—Lily-of-the-Valiev. Senior Class Colors—Blue and Silver. Senior Class Motto—“He Who Aims Beneath the Stars Aims too Low.” 1929 Page twenty-three LA SALTIANNA CLASS WILL We, the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-Nine, of Saltsburg High School, in departing from this noble building of pleasant memories into the unsympathetic world, and believing some of us to be sound in mind, of superior judgment, and being very wise and otherwise, deem the drawing of the Will expedient. We hereby make public to all mankind that we revoke and make void any and all wills, testaments, Latin papers, late passes, excuses, and notes written by us or for us heretofore. It is our last wish that this “Iron Will he kept from the clutches of the junk dealer, and be held in veneration so that all classes will goal their ambitions with the Class of '29 as their highest and most worthy example. TO THE FACULTY, we bequeath: The right to rule over and guide the Seniors following in our footsteps over the hard places in the road. The ability to Hunk as many as you wish after we have received our diplomas. The hope that you may always have such intelligent, well-behaved, good-looking Seniors as we have been.

This was a course in “ Etiquette.” There was some discussion as to who should teach it, but all the members of the Faculty were undertrained in this line, it was finally decided that they should take turn about in the instruction of this course. The following is an accepted list of instructions: 1. Prink liquids, such as coffee, tea or cocoa, from your saucer. If they happen to be hot, fan them with your hat. 2. Hegin to eat as soon as you receive your plate for there might not be enough “seconds” for all. 3. Leave the table immediately after you are through eating, no use wasting time. 4. If you get a particle of meat or other food caught in your teeth, just use your fork or finger to remove it. 5. Always tuck your napkin in your collar: it saves laundry. 6. If there is something you like on the table, and can't eat it all, don’t be so rude as to leave it, take it with you. 7. Never eat pie with a fork. It is very impolite, the accepted form is to use both hands to convey it to your mouth and to see how few bites it takes to eat it. 8. If you want something on the other side of the table, get up and reach across and get it; no one will object. 9. If the lettuce of your salad is unmanageable, pick it up with your fingers; it saves time. 10. If a piece of meat should escape from your plate, capture it as quickly as possible to save confusion. 1929 Page twenty-seven LA SALTIANNA TO-MORROW As I stand and gaze from my window, Before my tear filled eyes A vision ever-endearing Is often wont to arise. I see a large brick building. Splendid in yellow and gray. But my heart is colder than the stone Forming the broad doorway. My heart is cold for the parting That comes to us each and all. When we say good-bye to the High School, Good-bye to the stairs and halls. A lump that I cannot swallow Has risen from my heart And in my throat it settles. When 1 think that we must part. I try to dream of the future. Bound in an aurora of gold. But somehow the thought of the present Has permanently taken hold. When I have my sixteen credits, When the four short years are done, And I leave the High School forever. Will I feel that I have won? W ill I bravely meet to-morrow, Encounter praises loud, W ill I return with my laurels, And make that High School proud? I vow that I will be a winner. That I will conquer the day. And somehow it makes it easier For me to go away. —A. E.

She will be glad, for next year she will be a Senior and will leave poor Virgil to his fate with the oncoming classes.

What would we do without him to take the blame for our wrong doings? LYSLE EARHART Lysle comes from the country, and he has his good points, though they are rather hard to see. But who besides him would come so far to school, never missing? We predict a good future for him. PEARL FENNELL Pearl smiles, and laughs, and giggles. But how generous she is with her papers. We hear she likes candy, too. Without her our class couldn t get along or be so efficient. ALICE GEORGE A great favorite with everyone and well liked, too. The folks who don't know her will regret not having made her acquaintance. As for style, ask a certain Senior! HELEN GETTY Our flapper, dancer, actress, general, and what-not. She fits in every place, and her cheery countenance prevents sadness. Let's hope she never moves away. CLAIR GRANTZ Younger brother to that illustrious scientist, George, of our Superiors. What he doesn't know about languages, history, literature, mathematics, science, and Model T’s isn’t worth mentioning. But we'll probably doff our hats to him. some day. NORMAN GROSKLOS Comrade to our Joe Duke—and how generous with his chewing gum! In spite of a hurt jaw he still chews. But many would profit if they had some of Norman's cheerfulness and friendliness. 1929 Page thirty-three LA SALTIANNA GRACE HALE Gracia, known to everyone. She, too, understands cars and with her cheer could influence anyone She knows a good joke and loves to play-pranks. We all know, when Grace is around, we may expect some fun. She doesn’t flunk her subjects either, by the way. DORA KING So neat she is, and she seems rather precise. We can't see why she never gets scolded for talking. She never says such a lot. but when she does talk, it is usually worth while. Alas! Why are we not all good, as well as beautiful? OLIVE LOWMAN Olive is calmness itself; she is never fussed. She always looks as 'f she were ready to go to a party, to tell the truth, we think she would rather go to a party than go to school. But we benefit by having something nice on our landscape. ALEXANDER LYONS Alexander the Great, in person! He is our leader. He says he gets all the knocks, but if it weren’t for Alex our class would be on the rocks, like Sergesteus. Just his type is the type we need to keep us in good straits; that is forgetting his frequent requests for an elevator. We think he could easily beat Nero as a violinist. JOHN MAGUIRE Calvin Coolidge had nothing on John for silence, but this year he is becoming heard To look at him you never would think he could beat us in our studies if it weren’t too much bother. And girls, he’s handsome— honestly! WILLIAM MARTIN Such red hair we never saw, but where is the accompanying temper? It has probably been lost in his mad study of Caesar. Bill just loves French, but in spite of his great adoration, we rather think he will write a history book. JOSEPH SERENE Oh. Joe, you mischief maker! You are the bright sun of our school. No one can act the bad boy parts so naturally. You’ve gained a place in our hearts. We hope you will never change, even when you are world famous. PAULINE SHAFFOR Ahem! Our orator, greatly in demand at entertainments because of her ability to give readings. We missed her the first of the year hut she has won her old place back again. VIRGINIA SHITE Nice? I'll say! We have an idea she will be the next noted pianist of the world. Of course, music is not all she knows, she is one of our brightest students and can do almost anything. Page thirty-four 1929 LA SALTIANNA RONALD SHUSTER Ah, here he conies! Our hero—our star in basketball! Fair to behold, but do you remember what a handsome Negro he made in the Minstrel? Such a wonderful Romeo he'll be some time, with his banjo and marvelous voice. ANNA SMITH She glories in French and would like it even better if she didn't ha veto study it. It seems she will never be there on time. She likes music and has a lovely alto voice. She likes Physical Ed., too. we think! KHODA SMITH And Rhoda—talk about Titian beauties! She could win a |iri .e any old time. She has style all her own and can call almost everyone her friend. Actress? Yes! HILDA STEFFEY Hilda is so quiet that we scarcely know she is here. Hut you all know that still water runs deep. And even though she is quiet she is very proficient in her school work. MABELLE WAUGAMAN La petite, the smallest in the whole High School. We wonder how she holds her place among the larger students but she does it, and it seems quite easily, as well. —A. B. 30. 1929 Page thirty-five LA SALTIANNA JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY What a short time ago since we were Freshmen! When we entered high school we had an enrollment of forty-nine. We passed a very successful year, with Mrs. Hodgess as our sponsor, and even then gaining fame, being in demand on many occasions. In 1927-'28 as Sophomores, our class had been quite reduced in numbers, having hut thirty-one members. This year we established ourselves quite well. Nothing went over unless there were some Sophomores in it: Plays, musicals, recitals, in fact all activities, including athletics. But we consider ourselves as Juniors as the one and only class in the Saltsburg High School. Even the dignified Seniors think of us as their equals, and we are successfully co-operating with them in many ways. We are only on the threshold of a great life: on the first rung of the ladder of success; in the doorway to fame. But we, as the nation-to-be, will endeavor to carry on through the years, playing the game fairly and squarely : and most of all, remembering that whatever we may be, or do, we owe our success to our parents and our teachers in the dear old S. H. S. To them we will ever turn with light hearts, glad to work, because we know that it is for us and our good that the Saltsburg High School has been established.

S. as freshmen. We started forth feeling rather proud and important, for were we not high school students? A bit frightened, a little confused but filled with joy and pride to think that we were in high school. But alas! we soon learned that in the minds of the other classes, “Freshmen are nothing but the scum of the earth. We were treated with neither respect nor consideration. Indeed, they even pretended to find us amusing. However, in spite of the inferiority complex which such treament is bound to create, we lived through it all and continued to consider ourselves a class, settling down to the regular routine of school work under the efficient guidance of our assembly teacher. Miss Irwin, and that of the other teachers. Perhaps we were green but we believed that we would not always he so. We organized, elected officers, and chose our class colors, blue and white, and even as “fresh Freshies” we were represented in basketball, on the track team and in the various other activities, and always tried to show school spirit. When we returned to school on September 3, 192S, as Sophomores, we missed, several faces, and counting, found that there were only forty-one of us to start on our second year, later several of these dropped out and we are finishing the year with thirty-seven. We learned that one of the new members of the Faculty, Mr. McMillen was to be our assembly teacher. Say! he looked good to us. and the longer we have him the better we like him, and—we hope he likes us, too. I his year we were represented on the basketball team, two of our members have places on the Salt Shaker Staff, several had parts in the play, “In Cherry Time,” and whenever, or wherever singers, players, or talent of any kind is needed, the “Sophs are asked to help. At a rather late date we had our class meeting and elected officers for this year, and settled some other important matters. We are only Sophomores and haven't much to tell, but we are coming and expect to arrive. If school and classes you should scan And search week after week We're fairly sure you'll never find A class that’s so unique. —Hine ’31 1929 Page thirty-nine LA SALTIANNA SOPHOMORE MELODIES Samuel Bowers Margaret Bythewav Marian Conn Joseph Drummond . lane Duncan ......

August twenty-seventh, nineteen hundred twenty-eight, started our high school career with an enrollment of fifty-one strong, sturdy, and enthusiastic boys and girls, ready for any task that might spring up. We came not only from Saltsburg hut from all the outlying towns around. We spent the first few days in adapting ourselves to the regular school routine. At first there was considerable confusion as a number of us were rather “green” and were not used to the ways and byways of the school. Our dramatic ability was displayed in several interesting Assembly programs we held. Also a few of our members were in the cast of In Cherry Time.” Our musical talent is shown by the fact that we have several pianists, an expert drummer, and an exceptionally good violinist. Since the beginning of the year we have lost twelve of our members, but we are not in the least dismayed and are ready to show everyone that we are not as green as they seem to think and tell us we are. —Sarah Friedman ’32 CLASS OFFICERS Charles Guthridge Dora A skins .......................

Page forty-four 1929 7‘ LA SALTIANNA ALUMNI HISTORY “The true historian, seeking to compose a true picture of the thing acted, must collect facts and combine facts. Methods will differ, styles will differ. Nobody ever does anything like anybody else; but the end in view is generally the same, and the historian’s end is truthful narration.” It is an impossible task to truthfully narrate the history of the Saltsburg High School Alumni without facts and these can only he obtained by every member reporting to the historian the things he knows concerning his classmates or other members of the Alumni. We are proud of the way the Alumni Association is growing, but we will not be satisfied until every graduate of our High School becomes identified. Those of us who have been present at the three banquets already held realize the enjoyment as well as the benefit we have received from the getting together of our classmates and friends, exchanging greetings, learning each other's problems, sharing each other’s joys as well as sorrows. Since the organization of the Association but two member of the Alumni have died. Myrtle McNeil Piper, '97 and Verne McQuiston Meeker, ’05. The following marriages have taken place in the last year: Hannah Doughty, '04 to Frank Gouider; Lulu Stein. '24 to Harold B. Kinter; Grace Speedy, ‘26 to Frederick W. Jamison: Bertha Fishel, '27 to Paul Marts; Stella Yensel, '27 to Samuel J. Grabiak; Genevieve Lowman, '28 to Harold Young; Dale Carnahan, ’27 to Mary Florence Deenier. Several more life members have been enrolled. The constitution and by-laws, which were presented at the regular meeting of the Association following the banquet, were unanimously adopted. The Association recommended the report of the committee on the Mathematics Prize, which was that the student attaining the highest grade in mathematics for the entire four years is to receive a prize of $10.00. This was won by Wilmer Gosnell in the Class of '28. We feel that no mistake was made in giving Wilmer this prize as he has continued to make all his teachers proud in the splendid record he is making at Kiski. From the different Halls of Learning where our Alumni are in attendance, nothing but meritorious reports have reached our ears. We trust that the history of our Association may never be marred by any actions on the part of our Alumni. —Maude L. Ewing, Historian Page forty-six 1 929 I.A SALTIANNA ALUMNI NOTES Dr. J.

Martin — - - ■ 5 LA SALTIANNA = THE INCREASING DEMAND FOR EDUCATION The concept of education has gradually changed from the old idea of acquiring certain types of book knowledge, which contribute to the culture of the individual, to a much broader viewpoint of extending the knowledge until it becomes a vitalizing factor to the community. Education to-day is not limited to the classroom but it includes all the activities which tend toward the full realization of citizenship throughout one's lifetime. American education no longer maintains that the needs and the capacities of all individuals are similar, but attempts are being made to develop the particular ideals of each one which have been dormant and have been awaiting an impulse to encourage future growth. With this viewpoint in mind, let us point out some of the most important objectives of our educational system, health, mastery of the fundamentals, worthy home life, vocation, leisure, and character. The demand for future education has resulted from two main sources. The primary cause has been the outcome of our system of government. In any democracy, it is necessary to have an intelligent populace if the business of the community is to be conducted by the people for the benefit of the greatest number. Education is not so important in a country where the affairs are conducted by a single person or even a limited few, for the conduct of the interests of the individuals is forced upon them regardless of the will of the masses. The second point to be considered is the progress of our economic system. Machinery is doing the work of the masses with only a few persons necessary to oversee the operation. Therefore it becomes practical to develop people to operate the mechanical devices rather than to perform the actual labor as was previously done. The schools are at times condemned on the grounds that the procedure is not practical and that too much emphasis is placed upon subjects which do not have particular bearing upon the solution of the problems of daily life. This attitude requires a reorganization of our system in order to develop the more practical side but we must be careful not to neglect the cultural as well as the technical. It is obligatory that a well-balanced curriculum be obtained which will provide for the enlightenment of the individuals and at the same-time enable our citizens to meet the demands of competition and our more complex industrial life. Education in itself is intangible; it is not a definite object that is visible to any of the senses, therefore it is impossible to place a definite value upon it in terms of money. It cannot be purchased or sold any more than character, truth, or fidelity may be transferred but the effects of it can be visualized from a comparative standpoint, as it promotes industrial efficiency and increases Page forty-eight 1929 LA SALTIANNA material wealth. It is either by the practical or the theoretical development or both through which new processes are discovered which increase the efficiency of the individual physically or economically. An investigation of the educational advantages shows the possible attainment of individuals through an education, as compared with the less fortunate ones. From the statistics showing the outstanding characters in our country who have been mentioned for the membership in the Who’s Who in America, we obtain the following facts: 31 members were chosen from the uneducated class of 5,000.000 people: SOS were chosen from a class of 33,000,-000 with a grade school education; 1 245 from a class of 2,000,000 high school graduates; and there were 5.76S chosen from a class of 1,000,000 college graduates. Let these figures be computed to include a class of one million people from each group and we could expect the following results: 1,000.000 uneducated persons would have 6 representatives; 1.000,000 people with grade school education would have 24 representatives; 1,000,000 people with high school education would have 022 representatives; 1,000.000 people with college education would have 5,768 representatives. The above table shows comparatively the advantages of an education and each child has the right to expect an equal chance to compete with his fellowmen and since the most valuable result of education is the broadening, deepening, and refining of human life, it behooves us to do all within our power to provide for everyone an equal opportunity which is his birthright. “Aim high, O Youth, and have no fear. To gaiii the heights; put forth your best, Echoes on the way will cheer. Souls who fought, and stood the test. Making beautiful memories To brighten our lives in another day To be remembered in the years Waiting for us in the far away.” —E. M. J. 192 9 Page forty-nine THE SPENDTHRIFTS’ SOLILOQUY (With apologies to William Shakespeare) To save or not to save—that is the question Whether 'tis better to bank at six per cent The dollars earned by weary toil from dawn till night Or to have your fling while yet vour purse is fat. And laugh at coming age. To hoard- to keep Your cash, and by this act to say you start The squabbles and the thousand bitter law-suits That heirs delight in—’tis a method Not to be thought of. To hoard—to keep— To keep mayhap to lose! Ay there's the catch For to thine iron safe what thieves may come When you have drifted to the land of dreams? lust think of that: that's the thing Which makes misers mighty scarce, For who would bear the threats and sneers of thugs. The pistol’s menace, the robber's treachery. The sad adieu to your departing gold, the vanished pleasure. The arrogance of ‘cops’ and the questions That the prying gossips of your town will make. When you yourself might have a better time By sometimes making Whoopee? Who would these worries bear To toil and perspire under a cranky boss But that the fear that your prosperity When you have sorrowfully bid farewell To this sad vale of tears, may have to work And return to shirt sleeves and labor hard Rather than idly spend your treasured shekels. Thus hard hoarding does make fighters of your heirs And thus the lawyers who “protect their interests” Reap the benefit of your long years of toil; And all the pleasures you might have had With those pernicious pennies have disappeared Into the land of “never was.” Oh, heed my words; This maxim mind: Youth, spend thy dough. As a wit once said. “Easy come, easy go.” —A. G. '29 LA SALTIANNA THE YEAR IN ACTIVITIES During the year 1928-'29 S. H. S. made many steps and improvements in their activities. The new club organized was the health club which was named the H. H. H. Club. Our library has been increased each year by the addition of new books. These books are a valuable asset to the students as they furnish a source of reference material. This year we have weekly assemblies in the Hall. We are entertained by one of the classes of the Junior or Senior High. These programs are a means of forming a closer relationship between the different classes. Although the progress of the school may not seem so noticable to outsiders, we feel the change and believe that every year is an improvement over the previous one. OUR ANNUAL HALLOWE'EN PARTY It is a rule of our High School to have an annual masquerade party. This year due to Institute Week and to the remodeling of the Town Hall, the party was postponed until Friday, November ninth. The Seniors were the interior decorators, and they surely deserve a pat on the back for their decorative ability. The Hall was very beautifully decorated with orange and black crepe paper, corn shocks and pumpkins. The party was opened by the Grand March, in which everybody took part. Prizes were given to the best dressed boy and girl; Mrs. Hodgess and Mr. Johnson, who were acting as judges awarded the prizes to Viola King, as a Pierrette and to Dick Ray in a full dress suit. The entertainment consisted of dancing, card playing and the stunts which were put on by the various classes. The first of these were the Juniors, who arranged the different members of the class to represent a pipe organ. I he Sophomores were without a stunt. Next on the program were the Seniors who gave a peanut feed. Last but not least were the Freshmen; they piled up an enormous stack of chairs, then one of the boys said that he would take off his shoes and jump over them. He then proceeded to leap over his shoes. As we had used up all our energy for the stunts, dancing and other amusements, we were wondering whether or not we would have enough energy to get home. Here the Seniors came to our rescue with a wonderful lunch of doughnuts, peanut brittle and punch. After this we adjourned, very well satisfied.

The hope of Le Cercle Francais is to increase interest in all things dealing with France: in language, people, and customs; and to enlarge our knowledge in a pleasant way by French songs. French dramatizations, games, poems, and conversation. Since the organization it has been ably demonstrated that such an organization does not encourage learning alone, but the practical use of such knowledge as well.

For many years we had looked with envy over the papers published by other schools, but had no idea of editing one ourselves until Miss Jackson suggested the possibility. The second meeting of the Staff was probably the most important in all the history of the Salt Shaker. At this meeting the paper was given its worthy name and we were all assigned our duties. And then with the first edition our ambition became a reality. Miss Jackson, our Sponsor, and Alice Guthridge, our Editor-in-Chief, have made things buz ., with co-operation of the Staff. The Salt Shaker is published every two weeks and every student looks eagerly forward to its edition. The paper shows one class what the other is doing and gives outsiders an idea of the things that are going on in the school. The Staff is as follows: Alice Guthridge Joseph Serene Elizabeth Cunkelman Alberta Bordner John Mcl’hilimv ... Dorothy kelly Lena Bergman John 11 ine ....... William Martin Helen Getty .......

This was the first performance to be given after the repairs had been made to the Town Hall. Every one taking part in the play fitted himself to the character he was to play and interpreted the part very creditably. Events of dramatic and humorous interest followed each other very closely. Cherry Adams (Alice Guthridge) who was the peppy owner of a cherry orchard, could not get a satisfactory price for the crop because of the interference of Joe Meadows (Joseph Scott) an old villan. He was assisted in his schemes by Jack Wessler (Robert Burnett), but however when Jack caught a glimpse of Cherry. Dan Cupid stepped in and Jack plotted to aid Cherry in her attempt to cross Stony Ridge. In this he was aided by his friend Chippy Henderson (Dick Ray) and bv that enthusiastic Dutchman, Fritz Koogel (William Grassell). Chippy, it must he confessed, was torn between his fear of Cherry’s gun and his budding interest in Ethel (Margaret McKelvey). Jack’s plans might have gained more sympathy had it not been for the unexpected appearance of his wifj Flossie (Viola King), but affairs were finally settled to everyone’s satisfaction. Aunt Margaret (Dorothy Kelly) lent an air of aristocracy to the play by refusing to associate with the more plebian members, but she was nobly abetted by that dignified butler Tuggles (John Stewart). Yinie Jackson (Charlotte Shupe). the colored cook, added a great deal of merriment bv her unexpected sallies and her earnest endeavors to write a play. Also among the playwrights were Sammy (Joe Serene) and Connie (Grace Hale), who disturbed many a quiet moment with their bickering and quarreling. —M. G. J. Page fifty-eight 1929 LA SALTIANNA “THREADS OF DESTINY” The Senior Class gave their class play on Friday and Saturday nights. May 10th and 11th in the Town Hall. The play. “Threads of Destiny. was a play representing the scenes around a southern plantation about the time of the Civil War. Virginia Montgomery, the mistress, has announced her engagement to Peyton Bailey, who owns the adjoining plantation. War breaks out, Peyton joins the Union army and is forced to fight against his comrades. Ralph F'rancis, a wealthy neighbor, offers to help the Montgomerys when their plantation is going to waste but irginia refuses to take his aid. The Colonel is killed at Richmond. Shortly after this Beverly comes home to seek some comfort but he finds that he is being trailed by the Union forces. He is discovered in hiding by Peyton who lets him go free because they have always been the best of friends and the ties of friendship are stronger than anything else. Francis learns that Beverly has escaped with the aid of Peyton. He threatens to tell of this if irginia does not marry him. Because of her love for Peyton she agrees to do so. In the meantime Ralph is accused of treachery and is forced to withdraw from the scene thus leaving Virginia for Peyton again. Another conflict between North and South is that between John Meri-vale Morton and Sally Ann Fairfax. We also had a love affair between Beverly and Edith and we can't forget the flirtations of George V ashington Johnson and Fanny. LA SALTIANNA THE CARNIVAL AND STUNT SHOW R-r-right this way, ladies and gentlemen! See the monkey in the cage! Consult Madame Fifi, our gypsy fortune teller! R-r-right this way! .Such ballyhoo was heard on the night of April 19th when the Juniors and Seniors opened their Carnival in the Town Hall. The doors were thrown open at 7:50 and the entertainment began at 8:00. The curtain rose on the Junior Orchestra. This harmonious group played two numbers, in one accompanying Ronald Shuster who sang for us. This bit of music tuned us up for what was to follow. Then came the Senior girls with a novelty song “Hats of Other Days.” Believe it or not the belles of ’% in all their glory were not arrayed like one of these. After parading sufficiently for the audience to become acquainted with every type of hat from 1850 to 1925 the girls left the stage to John Anieno, a rising virtuoso from the seventh grade, who played an accordian solo. Acrobatics followed performed by Craig Scott and assisted by Glenn Emanuel. Craig delighted the audience with his handsprings, cart wheels, somersaults, and rope jumping; especially the latter in which he excelled. We were favored with a Minuet by a group of Junior girljj whose lovely costumes and graceful poses were highly appreciated by the audience. This was followed by a Negro impersonation “The Origin of the Banjo” by Pauline Shaffor. Again we had the Junior girls who appeared this time in a song and dance specialty “The Frolics of 1929.” Dressed tomboy fashion they gave a performance that would have done credit to a Broadway musical show. Ahem! This concluded the program and the sideshows and refreshment booths were thrown open. Then the noise began! Barkers extolled their wares to the skies and the people responded nobly. Hot dogs, lemonade, candy and ballons, our best sellers went like wildfire. The country store proved a huge success and the booths had frequent rushes, “For Men Only,” and behold a complete wardrobe for a man with all the accessories,-cane, pipe, derby, tobacco, magabine, etc, etc. “For Women Only,” a ladies' wardrobe, powder, comb, mirror, rouge, etc, etc. “The Monkey Cage,” a mirror half hidden by a cloth and supported on chairs. There was the “Picture Gallery” in which there was everything from a full length portrait of Penn (a fountain pen) to a collection of black diamonds (lumps of coal) and last but not least was “Madame Fifi, the Fortune Teller” to whom young and old flocked to take a peek into their future. We believe that our first try at Barnum and Bailey's racket was a huge success. —A. G. '29 I'nge sixty 192 9 I.A SALTIANNA Standing: Kelly, Substitute Guard; Stewart. Substitute Center; C. L.

BASKETBALL 1928-79 Shortly after Thanksgiving vacation the call to arms of all basketball players was sounded, and in response to this call eleven men appeared at the Town Hall for the initial practice. This meant that an entirely new team must be selected, owing to the fact that nine men had graduated from last year’s squad. After a rather strenuous preliminary drill a team was selected. From the start there appeared to be no individual stars and a team of five men, working together, was organized Since there was no one man who had secured a permanent berth on the five, necessity demanded that each and every one must keep going to the limit. When the practice season had ended, about Christmas, the real playing season began. After a series of gains and losses the team settled down to a continual winning streak. This good fortune lasted until Lady Luck took a hand in the affair. 1 he first half of the season no one was ill or injured to a Page sixty-two 192 9 LA SALTIANNA serious extent. However, this was not to last, unfortunately. As the team was about ready to g to Homer City for the first game of the season with this team, Franklin appeared on the scene with a bad cold and Serene was unable to be out of the house. The team made the trip to Homer City and Franklin lasted the first half, but couldn’t play his usual brand of ball. Stewart proved the next one for misfortune to land upon. About the middle of the second half, he severely sprained his ankle. From this evening on little Lady Misfortune was with the team. Just a short time after this eventful evening Shuster received a bad bounce on his thumb which later proved to be broken, but more bad news was to follow, and this time the victim was Rupert, who became the proud possessor of an enlarged finger as the direct result of a bad pass. This seems to be a summary of the injuries and illnesses. The only ones who saw much service to emerge without serious injury or illness, were Kay, Simpson, and Rhea. Probably the best game of the season from the standpoint of interest was the Homer City game at Saltsburg. which required an extra period for Saltsburg to win out by two points. The season as a whole, from the view of sportsmanship, finance, and good fellowship, was a decided success, and in addition nine games were won out of fifteen played. Wherever the boys happened to be they were spoken of as a clean, clearcut, snappy-looking bunch. Their motto was “Never give up.” TOURNAMENTS The team was invited to play in the Alleghenv-Kiski Valley Tournament. At the drawing they drew Sykesville for the first round. The boys were defeated in this game. They returned to play in the consolation games but were beaten again by New Methlehem in a very close game. At the County Tournament at Indiana they played Glen Campbell for the first game. This proved to be an easy victory for us. Our next opponents were the boys from Indiana. They proved to be our superiors and we suffered defeat at their hands. We then played Plumbville but here again we were forced down by a small margin. Taking all in all the boys made a wonderful showing in these tournaments. They played very good basketball but they were merely outclassed by their opponents. We must give them credit for making as good a showing as they did. 1929 Page sixty-three LA SALTIANNA SUMMARY OF GAMES AT HOME December 21 Saltsburg 17 VS. Indiana Y.
