CLASS OF JANUARY l935 Tl'lE MID-TERM DANCE ENIOR TITEST in lovely dress, Senior men perTecTly groomed wiTh never a Tie or - iackeT missing, an air oT exciTemenT all during The day, marked some very im- porTanT evenT! Three o'clock aT lasTl-a grand rush To The boys Gymnasium-handshakes, greeT- ings, inTroducTions, music. The evenT oT The Mid-Term Dance evidenTly wenT oTT wiTh a bang! ln no Time The Tloor was sTrewn wiTh couples, dancing To The Throbbing Tunes oT Manny Blank's Band. IT seemed as Though The TaculTy were back in iTs sTudenTs days Too. Members oT The TaculTy beamed graciously as They waTched, and some oT Them danced wiTh The sTudenTs. All Too soon The lasT number was Tinished and relucTanTly we gaThered up our belongings and deparTed. A glorious Time aT The mid-Term dance! TEAS HE Teas which are The liTTle geT-acquainTed parTies ThaT The Senior Class runs oTT each Term, were again held This Term, and were enioyed' by Those who aTTen- -ded. The Teas have The advanTage oT having Two or Three classes TogeTher aT one Time raTher Than The enTire Senior Class, as is The case wiTh The oTher TuncTions. The Teas were held in The library This Term because The sixTh Tloor gym, The usual place where These TuncTions Take place was used by The mural painTers. Al- Though, There was some inconvenience, iT was more Than oTTseT by The Tables, lanes eTc. ThaT The library provided. The Tea CommiTTee deserves crediT Tor iTs splendid work, alThough They did prepare a beverage ThaT was a cross beTween hoT prune iuice, and Dr. Jones' Liver Pills and masqueraded iT as Tea , They can be pardoned Tor dropping a Tew dishes, They can be pardoned Tor making remarks ThaT made The more bashTul blush buT They never will be excused Tor slipping over ThaT Tea and The class while iT was -oTT iTs guard. The TaculTy in charge oT The Tea are To be complimenTed Tor Their excellenT work. They were excellenT hosTesses and hosTs and did much To insure The success oT The aTTairs. The Teas were The beginning oT a sTring oT TuncTions ThaT will make This lasT Term in Seward live in our memories Tor yearsfTo come. Page ThirTy-Three

CLASS OF JANUARY I935 FALL SPORTS MEMOIRS TRIKING and miraculous were The accomplishmenTs in The Tield oT sporTs This Fall. EnThusiasTs will long remember l934, as The Seward FooTball RevoluTion, or prob- ably as The Turning poinT oT The gridiron siTuaTion on The EasT Side. The success oT The Team inTroduced inTo The daily lives oT all SewardiTes Those imporTanT links To scholasTic presTige: he principles oT cooperaTion, spiriT, and loyal supporT. ATTendance records were shaTTered. Each game had a Tendency To draw more inTeresT. IT was made a duTy To devoTe SaTurday aTTernoons To The wiTnessing oT The scheduled TilT and The cheering oT The Team To vicTory. The opening oT school ini SepTember and The enTire TooTball Training period was saddened by The passing oT Coach David Hussack. Headlines in The school newspaper Tlashed his daring aTTempT To rescue Three lads aTTer a canoe had capsized. His conTribuTions was invaluable and Tormed The basic causes oT The Tremendous increase in spiriT on The parT oT -The sTudenT Toward sporTs. He was The organier oT The Blue and WhiTe eleven, a builder oT characTer, and a greaT insTrucTor. Many acknowledged Thas his passing would hinder The kindled Tlame- oT vicTory, buT resulTs have proven oTherwise. AlThough dishearTened, our Blue and VVhiTe Gallopers made iT a duTy' To live up To and To carry on The principles oT Their mourned coach. The game, however, had To go on, and Mr. Ephron, direcTor oT all sporTs acTivi- Ties, announced The appoinTmenT oT Two coaches, lvlessrs. Jack GolberT and Jerome- Washower. We can'T possibly esTimaTe The crediT due These Two TooTball menTors.. In a shorT period oT Three weeks, a TirsT and second Team was Tormed. One oT The sTrongesT lines in The ciTy, wiTh lvlancher, GeTTner, Friedlander, Dorifman, ZanTini, Scheckner and Lazar was developed by head-coach Jack GolberT. Hiss assisTanT- coach, Jerome Washower worked wiTh The second Team, and also wiTh ThaT speedy backTield group oT Singer, Karasik, RomanowiTz, and Rosenberg. Probably The greaT- esT TeaT oT The season, was Tieing ThaT highly Tavored Cleveland Team. The papers raTed us among The TirsT Tive ouTsTanding schools OT The ciTy. Seward Park High is no longer The door maT in scholasTic TooTball, neiTher are we known as The school which has Tor Three seasons gone down in deTeaT. ThaT TirsT class squad Tinally succeeded in having our name recognized in TooTball highlighTs. Summary Our TirsT game wiTh Richmond Hill scheduled To be played OcTober 6Th was posrponed due To prevailing weaTher condiTions. STuyvesanT I 3-Seward 0 On OcTober l3Th, an inexperienced buT sTrong TooTball Team encounTered The STuyvesanT DuTchmen, who managed To push over a I3-O win. Our boys were given Two TiTTeen yard penalTies, which led To bo+h STuyvesanT's Tallies. OuTsTanding Tor Seward in This iniTial P. S. A. L. TiTT was The punTing oT STreTch ZenowiTz. Page ThirTy-Tive
