Some psychologists say that the fundamental traits of body and mind are formed in the first three years, others say in the first eight years. Lately there has been a controversy as to whether life begins or ends at forty. A considerable number of years of observing people and especially those of high school age, has strongly convinced me that the most important years of human life arc the years of adolescence, which roughly speaking, are the years between twelve and twenty, or high school years. In this period the great change from childhood to maturity takes place. It is not only a period of great change but a period of profound disturbance. It is a period, which I believe determines largely what manner of adult the child is to become. It is a critical time with respect to laying the fundamentals of good health. During the adolescence the emotions are at high tide and our future emotional stability is very largely determined during this preiod. It is a time when youth is most impressionable about religion, and at the same time, it is the period when most criminal careers are begun. The religious or criminal habits formed during these years scent to be the permanent determiners of conduct. This fact alone shouts an insistent warning concerning the responsibility of the high school for character education. Our life habits of all kinds seem to be formed or changed almost wholly during the high school days, habits of working, walking, speaking, eating, of cheerfulness, of courtesy, of vulgarity or refinement and our habits of morality and thinking. Therefore, I say to the young men and women of Sharon High School, do not befooled into believing that high school days are trivial elays, or that you will some time be other than the men anil women which you are now becoming. 1 urge you to think of these days as the golden years of life.

It is being directed by a competent body of aviscr? who arc very much interested in its success. The audience is composed of those men and women nearest and dearest to the hearts of the actors—their parents. The first act has commenced. Several hundred people are seen upon the stage. I he Merchant of Venice and Odysseus live again before our eyes and their actions are closely observed by all of the girls and boys. Many of the actors arc working with numbers and letters of the alphabet at the same time. We are informed that upon them depends the solution of many important problems encountered in the plot We hear people conversing in languages to which we arc unaccustomed. Some of the actors are extremely interested m their natural surroundings and enjoy the phenomena of nature. Ancient Greeks, Phocmcions and Egyptians march as of sore before the eager eyes of all. As the curtain rings down the audience bursts into thunderous applause. The second act begins. The actors arc now more sure of themselves. New scenery is noticed on the stage. We see again the wonders discovered by Euclid and Phythagoras, the French Revolution and Industrial Revolution are relived. The wonders of Mother Nature arc still being pursued in detail and we see the important Commercial aspect of our nation. This act is also met with loud acclaim. The curtain rises on the third act. In a laboratory strange and useful substances art-made and unmade before our eyes. King Arthur rides before our very eyes and Lincoln speaks again. Everything is in readiness for the climax. The last act has come. All the players arc performing perfectly. In their number is an orator whose orator)' rivals that of Cicero, essayists who arc comparable to Bacon and violinists, singers, pianists, and other musicians nearing the brilliance of a Mozart, a Rubin-off or a GaUt Curci. We see basketball, football, and track stars whose feats have seldom been surpassed who are outstanding members of this group. The glories of the past and the promises of the future unfold before our eyes. As the curtain comes down for the last time the audience gives the players a great ovation. The band strikes up Hail, All Hail to Sharon High School” as the players make their exit and set out for new fields to conquer. If the history of the past four years repeats itself their success is inevitable.

Forty-six BEYOND LOUISE OWEN The golden sunlight on blue waters shone. While lady's slipper twinkled in the dance. The gypsy caravan was journeying Amidst the crisp green foliage of the spring Toward a rosy peak which lay beyond The hills. Gay, happy gypsies in their caravan With joyful call and merry laughs Which rivaled with the whippoorwill When like the yellow daffodils They sweetly sang or lightly danced In joy. The turquoise blue of day was deepening, A glistening star had cast a friendly light Upon the smooth yet gently bending path Which slowly wound between the flowering Above the little springs and mossy rocks And ferns. The happy gypsy band went slowly now. Their merry songs were quieting With sober eyes they reached the top; They looked, and slowly started down The hill, a star beam guiding them Beyond.

Forty-nine The Mirror JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY ETHEL SCHANTZ, .935 It had just turned dusk when our caravan rounded the curve in the road— When the wagons were loosened and the horses tied for the night, our campfire was built. The older members drifted together while we gathered with our own crowd ’round the fire. Raloh Vasconi, Leonard Poes, George Pancy and Francis Joseph were absent to clay in the band. Our loved camp songs were sung by Edith Gruitza, Ed Boslough, Let Richards and Orville Bush, while the strains of Betty Alderman’s violin rose and fell, blending perfectly with the song of the entertainers and the atmosphere. A perfect moment for just a little reminiscing—Anna L. Millikcn, Bob Heuthcr, Paul Vlundorf and Ed Boslough in a murder scene from “Macbeth”—Grace Johnston, Audrey Beane, Ethel Schafitz, Herb” Young in the Biology discussion on Evolution”—Sophie Grccnburger, harlottc Mills, Mildred Beckwith playing tennis on the Gypsy Club Gym Eloor—Marie Chieffo, a Spanish senonta as Victory and Glenn Shorts, Gerald Murphv as the young cabellcros—Betty Bachman, Bob Mitch, Mary Dumitru, in the Young Lochinvar comes out of the West rally—Henry Garrick absently writing “Henri” on the blackboard in the French room of the G. U. School— Dot Burger asleep in Latin Class— discovery that “Durante” merely means “during in Spanish—the nerve-wracking, headsplitting, hand-twisting time we ALL had trying to write ballads (remember?)—And on and on with the memories of the pleasant, busy year. But the evening was not spent wholly in reminiscing. Virginia Burke and Rita Wciscn presented a playlet which literally sent us rolling. Then Mary Swift delivered a declamation with such sincerity that we were tense with the realization that there were noble things in life worth striving for and accessible to the ones who tried. Badges meritous of effort in intcrscholastic ami Mirror work and for high standing in the Gypsy Union were presented to Louise Myers, Ed Boslough, Renalda Dunning, Trevor Sainsbury, John Evans, Regis Marso, Wanda Evans, Olga Gazda, Anna L. Millikcn. Mary Bastress, Ethel Schafitz, Maude Alice Roberts anti Mary Swift. It was a happy evening-—-reminiscent of the adventures and experiences of the year. We found that we were very well represented in football anti basketball. We boasted Bayer, Nolan, Matika, Lombardo, Nichols, Lysohir, Burger, Sallade, Shorts, Wellman. Diven and Bowie in these two sports. Our girls sports club turned out Helen Rigby, Mary Bastress and Louise Garl, trained to take charge of classes in any club sport. The fire grew brighter, our checks redder and spirits gayer. Trevor Sainsbury in an extemporaneous speech reminded cvreyone that it was a New Deal for bigger and better things anti that it was in the coming year we would try to send out from our organization a type of man and woman modem and enthusiastically ready to take its place in the moving world.

Anti we came, five hundred strong, to Sharon High, self-assuredly, with a smile upon our faces and a song in our hearts, expecting to encounter no difficulties throughout our high school career. We were all excited over the entirely different kinds of studies from those of the grade school. But, Oh, what a shock! One look at our Algebra hook made it seem as though there was no hope of ever passing that subject. EPISODE II. VIDI. So surprised were we, at the abundance of subjects, that we could not decide which would be the most beneficial to us. Later on we thrilled with the interest and importance of our studies. Not only the need of ardent study did we see, but also the necessity of engaging in some activities of the school. Many joined clubs for the sake of acquaintanceship; others, musical or instructive clubs for their own betterment. EPISODE 111. VICI. We overcame all obstacles which a freshman must. Some forty of our class, the papers deemed worthy of honorable mention for the admirable part they have taken in the studies of the school. At the beginning of the year approxitnatly sixty freshmen reported for football. Nearly sixty of our class reported, also, for the interscholastic team. And now it seems that we have started our way on the road to success. FRESHMAN NIGHT Morton Grossman, 1937 The annual Freshman Night was held in Sharon High School on November 1, 1933, the purpose being not to let the parents find out the grading or standing of their sons or daughters, but to become fully acquainted with Sharon High School. An interesting period was held in the auditorium with Richard Fitzgerald as chairman presiding over the following program. A welcome speech by the chairman was first and following it the principal, Mr. Jones, gave a talk to the parents, explaining certain rules and regulations of our school. In this speech lie stressed the ideas of good attendance and cooperation of parent wirh pupil This talk cleared up many questions in the parents' minds. After this speech there was a short musical program presenting some of the best musicians among the Ninth Grade Class. Zelma Ferrari gave a very good vocal solo and Milton Shafran played a fast piano solo. Several groups gave interesting selections; among these were the String Quartet and Clarinet Quintet. At the end of this enjoyable period a time was given in which the parents could visit the teachers and look over the High School. There was a large attendance and the Freshman teachers were kept quite busy being introduced to the mothers and fathers of pupils of hers. Many a bashful boy led his parents to a teacher and stumbled out awkwardly an introduction to his teacher. This time proved to be not only educational but an old-time acquaintance party. Many a parent met an old school friend he had not seen for fifteen or twenty years. Following this period the parents and pupils were invited to receive refreshments in the cafeteria. Most of the people went to the lunch room and had crackers and a cup of cocoa, while they chatted. Even after this the crowd still lingered in the school, seeing various parts of the building such as the gymnasium and the mechanical drawing room. Gradually the happy group slowly started home after having had a very enjoyable time.

It is impossible in a school of fifteen hundred students for the teachers to have any personal contact with pupils. The various clubs have been founded to remedy this situation, because personal contact is of distinct advantage to both the pupils and their teachers. Before the new high school building was built, the clubs were beginning to organize. However, there was no place for any social meetings and the need for that type was growing. Through the courtesy of the Reverend Mr. Owen who was then rector of St. John’s, the privilege of holding meetings in the Parish House was granted to the school. The two clubs organized at that time were T. M. T. M., for Senior girls, and R. F. D. Juniors. I he Spe-Rc-Wri Club and Le Cercle Erancais, not being social clubs, bad facilities in the study ball of the old building, but they had to confine themselves to formal programs. When the new building was completed, there was plenty of room for clubs of all kinds. More clubs were organized as the need for them increased. The R.F.D. Juniors were discontinued because other clubs were providing them with opportunities previously provided by that organization, but not the T. M. T. M. Club, which extended the scope of its activities Clubs were found to be of real advantage in adding zest to required subjects. They continued to grow, their objectives expanded until today we have language clubs, a literary club, a music department, a commercial club and clubs for spreading high ideals throughout the school and community. With such a variety, every' pupil is given an opportunity to belong to an organization which seems best fitted to his needs or abilities. The justification for this variety and number of clubs can be found in one of the objectives for education set down by the N. E. A.—worthy use of leisure time. This interpreted means the use of leisure for pleasure and profit. These clubs furnish training for this type of activity. They provide a high standard for pleasure, social and intellectual. They encourage students to use leisure time to increase their efficiency in the type of thing that appeals to them most strongly; physical, social, or mental. And not only so, but the sponsors endeavor to help the students to discover for themselves their capabilities and the possibilities of their choice. The clubs also by giving opportunity for the members to make contributions for various projects train the pupils in the ideals of service. Bv planning and carrying out the projects the pupils are trained in cooperation and responsibility. Altogether the Clubs play a part in the lives of the students almost as important as the regular curriculum, if not equally so.

Did you see the colorful valentines of February and the beautifully cut block print in December? If not, you have missed something, including the special features of the other numbers, not to mention the Yearbook of 1934. The Mirror staff of 1934 had a very definite goal to attain: to produce a Mirror, pleasing to everybody each month. To do this, work of fine literary merit, suitable news of school activities, and good clean humor along with inspiration and willing work were necessary. To add to the attractiveness of the magazine, the staff each month selected an original theme upon which the material of the magazine was written. An example or two of these themes arc the Christmas number, which was an attempt to portray the spiritual side of Christmas, and the April number, in which material about the History of Sharon was used. Each month the magazine was divided into departments—literary, poetry, exchange, organizations, alumni, athletics and feature. It was the duty of the editor of each of these departments to sec that he brought in well-written material for his section, generally built about the monthly theme. Although not much mention has been made of the fact, the Mirror won a very high honor late in December. Each year a Mirror has been sent to the state magazine contest. This year it came back with the third state prize. The prize is a medal, small in size, attached to a white grosgrain ribbon inscribed in gold letters. You may sec it in the trophy case in the front hall. Clubs and other school organizations attend conventions. So docs the Staff of our magazine. This year it held a very successful convention of its own in January. Three very fine speakers, Prof. Hurst Anderson of Allegheny College, Miss Ethel Ward of West Tech, Cleveland, and Mr. Spencer of Heights School, Cleveland, provided intellectual interest. In the afternoon contests on editorial, humor write-ups and poetry were held for those interested, while the others danced in the gym to the tunes of the High School Orchestra. And such is the work your Mirror staff has done this year. Are you satisfied with it? Fifty-nine The Mirror INTERSCHOLASTICS On December the eighth the music-literary contests were belli at Farrell, Grove City, anil Sharon.

First Sixty-one The Mirror SPE-RE-WRI The Spc-Rc-Wri is one of the pioneer tribes of Sharon High School. On October 22, 923’ e first meeting of the club was held in the auditorium of the Old High School. It was through the efforts of Professor J. A. DeFrance, the faculty adviser for the first three years, that the club was organized. 7 here were forty pupils as charter members. Membership was given only to the students who participated on the interscholastic team, as the primary purpose of the society was to train its members for literary work. The motto adopted by the club was “Labor Omnia Vincit.” Later the membership of the club was increased to ninety members; that is twenty-five Seniors, twenty Juniors, fifteen Sophomores, and ten Freshmen. This year has been a successful one for the Spe-Re-Wn Club. Many of its members have been on the interscholastic teams. They staged a rally before the Sandy Lake Game. The Club enthusiastically’supported its social events. Miss Craig has contributed much to its success: also the officers: President - - - Charles Phillips Vice President..............................Nancy Armour Secretary ------ Virginia Burke Treasurer ------ Tom Garvey Attorney ...... Charles Divcn Sixty-two The Mirror JUNIOR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Who would think that in our happy, carc-frcc, gypsy band there would be a group so business-like and efficient as our Junior Chamber of Commerce? It is composed of students raking two or more commercial subjects and is under the leadership of Miss Elk. That they are thinking of tomorrow as well as of their gypsy life today can be seen by their four important aims: to promote interest in the business world, to encourage a social spirit among commercial students, to become conversant with modem progressive business methods and systems, and to raise and maintain a higher standard of efficiency in the school. By such standards this group is endeavoring to discover and serve the needs of the community. This past year the programs of the Junior Chamber of Commerce consisted of readings, musical selections, and essays on topics pertaining to business. At one of the meetings die gypsies displayed dicir native dramatic instincts by presenting a play, “The Perfect Secretary . This organization has become an important and helpful factor in the school. The officers arc: President Vice President Secretary T reasurer Sergeant-at-Arms Reporter William Jones Gertrude Williams Elizabeth Giroski Edward Donnelly Louis Cvelbar Eleanor Jaworski Sixty-three The Mirror LATIN CLUB A merry band of gypsies wound their way down into vales of pleasure and up over peaks of learning. As the way grew more interesting anti difficult these gypsies met once a month to tell of their various adventures and discoveries. These bands were formed by the members of the third and fourth year Latin students who wished to help the club's fourfold purpose: (i) to develop leadership among the leaders, (2)to acquaint members with Roman customs, (3) to show Roman influence on modern times and, (4) to develop a unified feeling among the members. I he programs at these meetings were as varied as the colored garments the gypsies wore. The lives and works of Cicero, Ncpos and Sallust were interesting but no more so than Virgil, Ovid, Pliny and songs sung in Latin by the two quartets composed of Orma I hompson, Delores Morton, Frances Wilson, Betty Hcintz, Lee Richards, Mike IVpe, Paul Beard and Stanley Chrobak. The last meeting of the year was a high spot of the Latin Club in all its four years of existence. A program in honor of the younger Pliny was presented, built about the activities of this man. Songs practiced daily by the club were sung, and interesting topics and debates were given. This troop is under the leadership of Mr. O. W. Raney with these officers: President ... Tom Garvey Secretary Grace Thomas Censors Edna Woods, John Kusnir Pontifex - Jacob Klein Cantor ... Alfred Barnes Cantrix ... Margie Heutsche Sixty-four The Mirror LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Gypsy fiddles were playing, but strangely enough they were not playing gypsy music. Instead, tunes of La Marscllaisc or Frcre Jacques came from these fiddles. The fiddlers and those singing the words were the members of Le Celtic Francais holding their monthly meetings. This vear Le Celtic Francais had grown so that the auditorium had to be used as a meeting place several times. At times when the auditorium could not be used the members had to he divided into two groups, one group meeting one morning, the other group meeting the following morning. As the purpose of Le Ccrclc Francais was primarily to acquaint the members with the French language, famous French people, French art, science, literature and customs, the meeting and some of the programs were given in French. Another purpose being to provide an opportunity for the students to become better acquainted with each other, several meetings were in the form of parties to which all French students were invited. As in past years, this year the members found the club both informational and pleasurable. Those who combined their efforts to make this club a success are: President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Sponsor Virginia Randall Jane Irons Louise Owen Linn Myers Miss Anna McBride Sixty-five TKc Mirror LA ESPANA PEQUENITA A bright moon shone down upon a group of old Moorish castles. Among the shadows of these ruins from former (lavs a gaily dressed group of people danced merrily to the old Spanish songs handed down from generation to generation. Occasionally among the dancers the sombreros of the senorcs were seen mingled with the dark tresses and red roses of the senoritas. This is an old custom in Spam. It was handed down to the Spaniards from the days when gypsies roamed among the hills of Spain. So it is an old custom among the members of the band of gypsies taking Spanish in Sharon High School to be interested in sunny Spain, a land where gypsies once roamed where they danced and sang their favorite songs, and where their customs are still carried on by the Spaniards of today. The leader of this band of gypsies is Miss Ruth Moore, with the following gypsies as officers: President.......................................Jacob Klein Vice President ..... Edward Bakunas Secretary.....................................Betty Merrick Treasurer...............................Burdell Cooper La Espana Pequemta presented a rally before one of the basketball games, very charm-mgly portraying an old Spanish custom; that of singing before the balcony of their lady love. Members representing the opposing team and members representing the Home team were portrayed in direct contrast, wearing the colors of each team. The lady of the balcony was victory. Sixty-six The Mirror TRAFFIC SQUAD The gypsy camp of Sharon High School is not exactly like the camp of the gypsies of long ago, for, since they had no automobiles whizzing past their camps, they had no need for traffic directors. However, the traffic squad is an essential part of the Sharon High School camp. Regardless of weather, each morning and each evening of every school day finds the members of the traffic squad enthusiastically performing their duties in directing traffic. Indeed, the school could hardly do without these boys. They have saved pupils from injury and have prevented many accidents by their direction of traffic. They also prevent a traffic jam in the street by stopping the stream of pupils and allowing cars to pass through. These boy's are divided into different shifts. Every morning and evening of a week a group of six or seven of the boys performs its duties, while the next week the group changes Although the boys receive little recognition for their work, they arc indeed to be applauded for their steadfast service. They' also have performed acts connected with the other activi tics of the school. Besides taking care of the traffic every day, the members act as ushers and storekeepers at football and basketball games. The supervisor of the traffic squad is Mr. Newton. Its members arc Stanley Chrobak, William Cox, Mont Ball, William Hughes, Neal Hassell, John Kusnir, Adam Fox, William Goodrick, Robert Godber, Edward Fcrrick, Robert Ferrick, Charles Phillips, and William Schell. Sixty-seven The Mirror MONITORS The Sharon High Gypsy Camp is guarded by very effective gypsy sentinels. The guards, stationed at each entrance-way into the camp are also posted in advantageous positions about the grounds to preserve the law and order of the camp. It is the duty of a gypsy monitor to maintain order in his given area. He usually has two hallways which he must guard. He inspects the restrooms at the beginning and end of each period and sees that no High School gypsy roams from his camping ground. Strangers entering the camp must be helped by a monitor and taken to the camp headquarters before they may go through the camp. These gypsies recognize the importance of their position and direct effectively throughout the day with nine changes of guard the order of the camp. There are fourteen gypsies employed each of the nine periods a day, thus making a total of one hundred anti twenty-six students on monitor duty every day. The captains of the Monitors are: 8:15-8:30—Betty Bums, David Abel. First Period—Robert Lewis, Virginia Burke. Second Period—Mildred Humes, Stewart Shilling. Third Period—Nancy Armour, Glenn McQuiston. Fourth Period—Mildred Wilson, Betty Hoffman. Fifth Period—Neil Hassel, Betty Burns. Sixth Period—George Anion, Mary Catherine Ovcrficld. Seventh Period—Orma Thompson, Ethel Jaxthcimer. Eighth Period—William McConahey, William Goodrich. Sixty-eight TKe Mirror TRI-HI-Y CLUB Unlike most carefree, irresponsible gypsies, the In Hi-Y gypsies have a definite and worthy purpose: To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character.” Under the capable sponsorship of Miss Ruth Moore, each member is attempting to live up to the purpose and is a true believer in the slogan: Pure thoughts, pure words, pure actions. The Tri-Hi-Y hand have already this year wandered over many fields of service, performing such helpful tasks as presenting the Sunshine Home with fifty pairs of stockings at Christmas time, contributing to the Community Fund, helping with the NRA program, and numerous other projects. Plans are now being made to prepare anti contribute to the High School a Vocational Guidance Room. In order to secure money to prepare this Vocational Guidance Room the I n-Hi T group held a dance to which all the students and teachers of the school were invited. In addition to this dance several bake sales were held for the same purpose to earn money. But gypsies are not true gypsies without social activities and these were no exceptions. Among their various social events were several co-parties with the Hi- . Mother s Night, Initiation Night, A Christmas Caroling Party, an Ice Skating Party and several county rallies.

This oit K though it is very young, has already engaged in several worthwhile projects. I uzation, even In the past year it has conducted a campaign to reduce the electric light bill, and succeeded in saving the school twenty dollars. The band also made anti sold black and orange nbbons for the football games. This club, like all Gypsies, believes in happy times. To help the Freshmen girls get better acquainted with the school, the club entertained them at a party. The Junior Tri-Hi-Y has interesting and instructive programs. Miss Winifred Loutz-enhiser is the capable advisor.

The club has for its purpose the creating, maintaining, and extending throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. During this past year the Hi-Y has been very active. Selling programs at football games, staging stunts for rallies, conducting a Clean-Up campaign throughout the school, have only been a minor part of their program. Working under the motto of “clean sports, clean speech, clean habits, and clean scholarship”, the club has attained a high rating. Mr. K. H. Collins acts as faculty adviser while Mr. Harvey E.

In a newly organized tribe such as the Boy’s Senior Club it is often difficult to get the cooperation of all the members; the boys, however, within a short time, not only planned their yearly program, but had it in full swing. With the Senior class growing larger each year, it is difficult for its many members to become acquainted. The club has not only realized its aim in establishing a stronger bond between the hoys of the Senior class, hut it has been possible for the entire class to become better acquainted with each other through dances given by the T. M. T. M. and Senior Boy’s Club. The second purpose of the club is to acquaint the boys, through the medium of speakers with the possibilities in various fields of work. One of the hardest problems with which a Senior boy will have to cope is the one of choosing a vocation, anil the club has undertaken, not to give the solution to the problem, but to enable the boys to better solve their own problems. In order to do this Dr. Hagen, our school doctor, gave a very interesting talk to the boys on Opportunities for Young Men in the Medical Profession. Mr. Rosenberg, a member of the faculty, urged more thought of peace and less words of war. The advisers are Mr. Stewart anil Mr. Irvine. Officers: President ------ John Marcus Vice President ----- Warren Campbell Secretary ------ Louis Cvelbar Treasurer ----- Albert Kuti Seventy-two TV Mir w T. M. T. M. Ah, happy! Look at those- smiles! Like all the gypsies of S. H. S. tribe, they know drat a smile is always welcome. The Queen of the gay band of Senior Girls, called T. M. T. M., is the capable Miss E. Vernccc Saeger. It is not an easy task to guide one hundred thirty-six gypsies along the right trail, help develop character and personality, to teach them to work together and still think for themselves. The T. M. T. M. tribe has proved itself equal to the task Before starting to work, the girls held a social meeting. Then came the mothers and teachers party, followed by a party for the Junior Girls. At Christmas time the tribe spread good will and Christmas Joy. Their code is well expressed by “If , for Girls by J. P. McEvoy: If you can be what girls should be to mothers: Chums in joy and comrades in distress. If you can lock your heart on confidences Nor ever needlessly in turn confide; If you can put behind you all pretenses Of mock humility or foolish pride; If you can keep the simple, homely virtue Of walking right with God—then have no fear That anything in all the world can hurt you— And which is more—you'll be a woman, dear.

MirrPT BOYS' GLEE CLUB Some Thursday morning during activities period, when you have time to spare, slip into the auditorium and enjoy the song of the gypsy band known as “The Boy’s Glee Club.” Under the leadership of Professor Reese the boys swing from a soft lullaby into a gay and lively gypsy tune. We have seen and heard these gay lads many times before, as they have sung on several occasions during the school year. A few of the members, along with a selected group from the Girl’s Glee Club, made up the Mixed Chorus, which is popular in the Community as well as in the school. This chorus presented a Christmas Cantata at the United Prcsby-terion Church and at the Rotary Club in December. Smaller groups, including quartettes and tnos, take part in the Forensic League Contests held in the spring. Several of these groups have won honors at the State Contest at various times in Pennsylvania, the last being in April. This year the boys’ chorus was entered into the competition. When this annual went to press, they had won the Mercer County and Northwestern Pennsylvania honors and were contemplating going to Johnstown for state competition. A boy’s quartet won county and northwestern honors. Boys from the Glee Club also took part in the mixed quartet and double quartet competition, and in the mixed chorus which also won northwestern honors. The officers for the club are: President ..... Vice President Secretary .... Librarian .... Reporters ... Warren Orville Bush Edmund Boslough Thomas Randolph Oliver Morton Campbell, Jack Davis Seventy-six TKe Mirror GIRLS' CHORUS The silence of the still summer night is broken by the sound of sweet voices singing a gay tune. We can sec the glimmer of a campfire shining through the trees and as we creep silently forward we can sec figures moving about. Thy arc a band of gypsy maidens —the Girl’s Glee Club of Sharon High School. In the semi-darkness we are able to distinguish the familiar face of their leader, Professor David Reese. We have met these light-hearted gypsies several times before. We recall that they sponsored the Hallowe’en Frolic in October and that they took part in the gay minstrel in the Spring. The girls meet every Tuesday morning during activities period for their club meeting. Following the business session a short musical program is presented. The remainder of the period is spent in group singing. Activities period every Monday morning the dark-skinned maidens meet with the Boy’s Glee Club for practice in mixed chorus work. The girls took part in the mixed chorus in the county round-up and in the double quartet. They accompanied the musical team to Oil City anil came back with laurels. At the time this article went to press they were making plans to go to Johnstown, Pennsylvania, for state honors.

Since that time we have not hail just history, but interesting history, history to thrill the hearts of all sport-loving Sharon people, and David Stewart has been largely instrumental in making it. A vear later another figure, Ted Rosenberg, stepped into the sport spotlight at Sharon High School to help lus former coach in bringing many victories to Sharon High. Since that time six years ago Sharon’s football stock has risen to formerly unknown levels. The Orange and Black gridders have taken their place at the top in Northwestern Pennsylvania. In 1928, the first year at the present stadium, Coach Stewart won, in fact, the county championship. The following season found Sharon undefeated, but once tied. That season found Sharon defeating Raycn for the first time in nineteen years. In the fall of 1931 Stewart’s eleven was undefeated and untied. Nor have track accomplishments been far behind. Of note among these is Sharon’s winning of the Pitt Relays in 1933. Turning to basketball we find A. W. Dickerson as coach. Mr. Dickerson lias led the Orange and Black cagers for quite a number of years. Prior to the building of the present High School, the teams were greatly handicapped, but a better high school brought better teams. For four consecutive years “Pop's” teams won county anti northwest district honors. I he last of these four years found him leading the boys to a state championship. However, he has not confined his activities to the hardwood court. As a teacher, he has won his way into the hearts of all who know him. FACULTY MANAGFR Howard Gilmore holds the difficult position of faculty manager at Sharon High. The duties of one in this position arc varied. He has charge of all equipment for football, basketball, and track. He secures the officials for all athletic contests. He handles the sale of tickets, an extremely trying task at such times when a state championship is near at band. Mr. Gilmore is to be congratulated on the fine manner in which he has handled this position. THE CHEERLEADERS Rah! rah! rah! Our four cheerleaders direct us in another rousing ycl team on to yet another victory. spur Sharon High has long been known for her loyal anti enthusiastic support of her teams; anti these boys have carried out this tradition. They have stirred up the fighting spirit of our teams anti prepared them to meet any anti all opponents. They have kept the cheers loud anti the spirit strong whether we won or lost. This quartet has had few peers when it comes to rousing the student body. Nothing has been left undone that would increase the enthusiasm anti pep. New cheers have been invented anti new ways found to Icatl them. Th cheerleaders’ task is a tlifficult one, but the boys have come through with flying colors. Those who have served this year arc Dick Scraggs, Etl Muller, Dave Bell, and Ed Callis. A resounding cheer for the cheerleaders is in order! Eighty-two Tk Mirror Cheerleoders Scroqg-Muller-Collis-Bell FOOTBALL COACHES Eighty-tbrer The Mirror FOOTBALL A group of gypsies sat around the fire, singing and telling stories of past adventures. As tlic merry-making and gaiety reached its highest point, a stranger walked into the circle of light and sat down near the fire. For a while he was silent, but when lie began to speak all other noises ceased, everyone listening to his story. “Out in the wilds of Western Pennsylvania is a tribe of gypsies, the like of which is rarelv seen. This tribe, known as the Sharon High Football Team, is warlike in its dispositions, often going to war against rival tribes. Although the tribe is not always successful in its attempted conquests the spirit of the tribe is unquenchable ami it always comes back for more. “In the fall of 1933, the Sharon Team engaged in a series of struggles against opponents which totaled eleven in number, the most extensive campaign ever waged by a Sharon High Tribe. In the numbers of victories and defeats as recorded by points, the Sharon Tribe broke even, but as recorded by fighting spirit and team play, it was unbeatable. “The Kings of the Tribe, David Stewart and Ted Rosenberg, carefully drilled their tribesmen in the fundamentals of battle, imparting to their charges the knowledge which many campaigns had given them. On the battlefield Sharon was led by Johnny Marcus, a capable leader, the center of every movement. The regulars were many in number, but they acted as a unit and were backed up with fine reserve strength, factors which greatly led to the team’s success. There were, of course, certain individuals who stood out and had merits worthy of mention. At the beginning of the season, the Kings had but five veteran warriors with whom to w'ork. These veterans were Marcus, Baver, Grimm, Clcppcr, Weiser, and Nichols. Marcus, a tackle in the season of 1932, was shifted to center, a position which he favorably filled for the entire season. His cool play at all times marked him as one of the bravest players ever to wear a Sharon High uniform, Clepper also found himself in a strange position when the season opened, having been changed from blocking half to end. Clepper was a constant threat to opponents because of his ability to catch passes. Grimm and Weiser shared the signal calling duties with Grimm developing into a fine long distance passer. Bayer did not confine his duties to but one position, playing either end or tackle. Nichols, however, was the versatile player, playing every position on the line, at one time or another. The finds of the season were rather numerous. Perhaps the outstanding one was Krivosh. As a plunging full-back he was good enough to worry any rival, but his greatest value lav in his ability to catch passes. Anything that was close was as good as caught when Johnny was on the receiving end. His punting, too, left little to be desired. A sore leg, however, prevented him from proving his worth along this line until late in the season. Andy Seaman, a winning half-back, showed fine ball-carrying ability and as he was but a Freshman, he showed proof of great value in the future. In Bobby Mitch, the Orange and Black had an All-County guard, a continual thorn in the side of the enemy. “The first battle, against Scienccvillc, was won, as was that against Rayen. With Akron West, Sharon was tied, but came right back to defeat Oil City. The first defeat came at the hands of the Warren Warriors, the second from Grove City. A victory against Sharpsville was followed by a defeat from Erie Fast and another victory, this time over Greenville. As the month of November drew to a close the Sharon Warriors were twice defeated, by Meadville and New Castle. Eighty-four TKe M'irrp'r “With the season for football wars over, the 1 ribe gave awards to the following members: Krivosh, Marcus, E. Bayer, Cvelbar, Grimm, Clcpper, Seaman, Nichols, Lysohir, Niec, Mitch, Weiser, Lombardo, Campbell, Matika. Starbody, and Sowers. At the conclusion of his speech, the stranger arose and departed as quietly as he had come. His story lingered on in our minds and from time to time other stories of this wonderful tribe came to our ears until one day the complete result was set down as follows: Record: Sharon. . . .

There is not much that need be said about the boys, for their actions can speak for themselves. They bad practically everything that a championship team requires and they are a championship team, even though they possess no titles. In the finals of the Mercer County Tournament, Sharon met and was defeated bv a fighting team from Greenville. It was an unfortunate conclusion to a highly successful season, but the bitter taste of that defeat is quickly forgotten in the midst of pleasant memories of the many victories. A Mercer County record of fifteen consecutive victories was shattered as the Orange anti Black compiled a record of seventeen consecutive victories for regular season competition. It might easily have been eighteen bad the first game of the year, that with Aliquippa, been taken seriously. In the first time in recent years, Sharon was able to win every county game on the schedule. The greatest opposition from the county ranks came from Grove Citv. Grove City was the only team able to come any closer than four points to defeating the Orange and Black bolding Sharon to a one point margin on the local floor. For the second straight season, Sharon took basketball honors in the Tri-City League. Rayen was defeated by the narrowest of margins, 31-30. The contest with Warren was closely contested and was the lowest scoring game of the year, 17-13. The best teams of the season to face Sharon came from distant parts and opposed Sharon in the first and last games of the season. The season was properly opened as Collinwood High School of Cleveland was defeated 33-31- It was properly concluded when Rankin High was defeated 31-27. At the beginning of the season, sport writers were giving Sharon no better than a fair team as only three men were back from the previous season. These men were Krivosh, Marcus, and Llewellyn. However, the development of these men, along with that of Burger and Sowers, upset the pre-season predictions and the hopes of many teams for a successful season. The team was captained by Johnny Krivosh. The other members of the squad were: Marcus, Llewellyn, Sowers, Burger, Starbody, Diven, Wellman, McGowan, and Barnes. Stanley Chrobak was student manager.

M'irrpr _ Ninety-three IKe Mirmr TRACK County Champ, winners of the Pitt Meet, and Tri City League Champs were tile-titles earned by the undefeated Sharon High track team of last season. Those interested in the track team were not overly optimistic as to the prospects for a successful season with only a few veterans ready to go. However, almost one hundred boys responded to Coach Stewart's call for candidates. Among these Coach Stewart discovered several real finds. Jack Bowie was one of these and proved his value in the half mile and mile runs. How ever, he did have a victory in the quarter-mile run. Bob Thomas, a Freshman, was another find, having a successful season as a pole vaulter. Krivosh and Llewellyn were others, these two doing duty in the javelin and discus. The first meet was held with Warren, Ohio, a Tri City League opponent. As the competition progressed the fine coaching ability of Mr. Stewart was soon in evidence, as Sharon won event after event—die final score being 74-48. One of the most interesting events of the afternoon was the 220 yard race in which Andros was narrowly defeated by a Warren rival. However, Andros secured revenge by winning the 100 yard dash. Bayer ran true to form and won both the 880 yard dash and mile runs. Bowie in his first start at the shorter distance, won the 440 yard dash. In addition Sharon won the high jump, high hurdles, low hurdles, javelin, and discus. LIpon the outcome of the Sharonite’s next meet hinged the championship of the Tri City League. Warren had been already eliminated, anti Sharon had bowed to Rayen in football but had won in basketball. However, the track team stood the test and Sharon High was the possessor of another title. Nine first and eight seconds went far in amassing 73 2 3 points for Sharon as compared with 48 1 3 for Rayen. Andros led Sharon scores by winning the 100 yards, 220 yards, and broad jump. Stefanic closely followed Andros with three seconds and two thirds. Bayer won the mile and half mile, Higgs taking first in the high jump. O’Shanic won the low hurdles while Thomas led first in the pole vault and Campbell won the shot put. The County Get-together came next with only our school and Grove City competing. This combat was the closest in years; the tide shifting from side to side as event followed event. At last, coming from behind, Sharon won by three points. The deciding issue of the day was the discus event which Krivosh won. Bowie hail a first in the mile, Bayer having the same in the half mile. The high jump ended in a three-way tic among one Grove City man and Marcus and Higgs. Andros didn’t fail and won both the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Stefanic had a first in the javelin throws. Ninety-Jour TK r Mirror Though being represented by only a part of her team, Sharon was strong enough to annex fourth place in the Northwestern Meet in Erie. Andros, the high point man of the squad, was unable to compete because of an injury sustained the week before. Higgs, Krivosh, and Bayer annexed victories in their respective-events, the high jump, discus, and 880 yard run. A few of Sharon's outstanding performers were sent to the Intcrscholastic Meet at Pitt where, as a result of much hard work, they won the meet, bringing to Sharon its greatest track honors to date. Sharon finished with a total of 16 points, 10 of which were made by Gene Bayer in the 880 run, and John Thompson in the broad jump. Gene Bayer was the outstanding star of the season, being undefeated in the 880.

It was organized for the purpose of giving every girl a certain opportunity to participate in sports and to practice tbe ideals of good sportsmanship. This organization was started primarily as a substitute for girl's basketball, the only spirt in which girls represented our school, and in which only perhaps fifteen girls could actually see real service. This state of afTairs has been corrected by the club sponsoring a program which includes soccer, volley-ball, mass-ball, basket-ball, swimming, tennis, golf, and skating. Besides reaping physical benefits from participation in these activities, each girl has an opportunity to win a letter or a sweater for continuous and faithful work and for skill in any particular field. The club employs a point system. At the end of two or three years a sweater will be awarded to the girl having fifteen hundred points, and a chenille letter to the girl having seven hundred points. If a reasonable excuse is offered, a member is excused from play, but if this occurs any more than twice, all points in that sport arc forfeited. If a member acts in a way considered unworthy of the club, she is removed from the roll. Swimming has been held in the pool of the St. John’s Episcopal Parish House every I hursday evening during the winter. The girls were able to swim for a very small assessment for three periods of a half hour each. Training was provided by Captain Gordon Fstcrline to the different classes of beginners, intermediate and advanced swimmers. Much progress was reported by those in charge. The other sports were divided according to months. In November soccer and volleyball were die chief interests, while mass ball, skating and basket-ball formed the diversion for the rest of the winter months. In the spring the girls played tennis and golf under very capable leadership. A feature of this organization is the Student Leaders Training Class. This class trains girls in athletics, class management, how to officiate at tournaments, and how to supervise and train others for the same work. The club had a very successful year under the following officers: Co-Presidents - - Nancy Armour, Delores Beckwith Vice President - Elizabeth Giroski Secretary-Treasurer ... Gertrude Williams Leaders are: Mary Bastress, Nancy Armour, Marjorie Heutschc, Delores Beckwith, ( arolinc Butchko, Mary Lelictt, Mary Jane Wilson, Gertrude Biro, Sarah Davis, Elizabeth Giroski, Elizabeth Barmes, Helen Rigby, Mary Elizabeth Klester, and Gertrude Williams.

The name of the boar was The Henry Rahl which cost him twelve hundred dollars which in that time was a great sum of money. The boat was eighty-live feet long twenty feet wide and was painted old and white. This boat was making its first trips between Pittsburgh and Erie when the Civil War broke out. Though this section of the country was not thickly populated it sent its share of men to the war. The government notified Billy Turner that he was to transport the soldiers from this locality to Pittsburgh where they would board the train for the frontier. The group assembled boarded the ship and left for war. On the way to Pittsburgh they stop at the present West- em Penitentiary where they bought bread for the soldiers The loaves of bread although it may sound as if I am exaggerating were sixteen feet long four feet wide and were loaded on While the boat was anchored at Pittsburgh the rebels were close to the city and it was m great danger When Billy Tumer retumed from Pittsburgh he told this news to his best friend Mr. Hilde- brand who lived where the present Pennzoil Service Station is located at Silver and Railroad Streets. When Mr. Hildebrand heard the news he planned to surprise the people. He cut down a large tree he had in front of his house hol- lowed it out and filled it with powder. He then shot it off and thoroughly frightened all the people in town because they thought it was the rebels. The Henry Rahl was used not only in transporting soldiers but also camed coal lime- stone iron and cattle to Pittsburgh and Erie. Limestone was mined in our vicinity and car- ried to the canal boats where it was taken to the ends of the canal. Because of limestone coal Continued on page twenty THE MIRROR PageFwc and Pittsburgh and ran through our present the boat like pieces of wood. . g .
