DR. HOMER W. HAY for his many services to our school and community. As our guide and counsellor, he has expended infinite patience and Wisdom upon our particular problems ever since We were freshmen.

As any great institution has to have someone behind it toudirect its policies, so our school has to have directors. We find them on many a Monday evening seated around the table busily cutting expenses, making improvements in the building or grounds, and buying everything from pencils to sewing machines. Long before a new school year begins, the board of education has elected the new teachers and determined our widely varied curriculum. During the remainder of the school year they spend their time financing our yearly program and trying to balance the budget, . The voters of Somerset elect five members to the board of education. The president of the board is Dr, Charles C. Barchfield. As well as being the vice-president, Mrs. Ioseph Levy takes care of the many problems of the Union Street School. The secretary of the board of education is Mr. H. S, Wolfersberger, who also is in charge of the welfare of the high school pupils. Working with Mr. Wolfersberger is Mr. Courtney, who has re- cently taken the place of Mr, L. Poorbaugh, Dr. C. Hemminger is the treasurer for the board. On his shoulders particularly lie the problems of the Patriot Street School. ln the hands of these capable men and women are our many problems. In fact these problems are so efficiently and quickly taken care of that we pupils seldom realize that they exist. We want to express our sincere gratitude to these men and women who have given their time and ability to make school life so enjoyable and profitable for us. DR. H. W. HAY has been with us Dr. Hay as a friend, not only as our four, happy, progressive years, giving supervising principal. advice willingly with his cherry smile. To MR. W. E. GRIFFITH we take Any time of day he can be found in his quiet office, away from the bustle and noise of the halls, working on plans for the benefit of our school, or aiding and encouraging some stu- dent. Dr, Hay has a rare quality of being able to get complete cooperation from the students. As a result, the student body will follow any of his sug- gestions with alacrity and good will. He has very little spare time from his duties of supervising princi- pal of the Somerset schools and can be seen in many parts of the building. Dr. Hay was grad- uated from California Teachers College and received his Doctors degree from the Uni- versity of Pittsburgh. With such prepara- tion he is well fitted to lead and guide us. Although he has few rules and wishes, he expects us to observe these. After leaving high school, we shall remember our problems - large and small. They are, however, never too small or unimportant to be taken care of personally by him. In and out of his office, all day long students bring requests for anything from a change of subjects to the solution of an al- gebra problem. His duties are by no means confined to the limits of his office for he can be seen busily working in any part of the building. Mr, William Grif- fith not only acts as principal of our school but also finds time to teach several algebra classes, After being gradu- ated from Franklin and Marshall Acad- emy and College, Mr. Griffith did post graduate work in the University of Pittsburgh. We will carry with us many of Mr. Cwriffith's stories beyond high school. ,qw -l -la tl-ii BUSY HGURS WITI-I Try as we might we can't forget: Memories of English linger yet. At the mention of each English teacher memories of lessons learned and pleasant moments spent in the company of imaginary personages of fiction come to us: Miss Baughman's MRT Snewlei' Miss llaughman Bliss Stoker Seventh and 9i9hth Qfade Qfammar i 's.f,1'1w Mm Mi' - N1 , , . . . ' I N I 'N in I ambuu and vocational guidance: Miss Stoker s Freshman English, more grammar, Treasur Island, and The Virginian? Miss Snyderls sophomores love little Eppie and pity Silas Marner. With Miss Sipe and Iunior English come the memories of Macbeth, short stories, essays, and tickets received for 'ispeedingn over sentence structureg and with Miss Miles we associate lyric poetry, Hamlet, modern drama, and the novel, Correctly pronounced 'iwasu does not rhyme with Hbuzzn and weary must have a long e, These are the memories that we association with Mr. Lansberry's public speaking class, Latin may be Greek to you but it's Latin and no mystery at all to us. We should know, too, because Miss Truxal is our Latin teacher. Mr. Ring- ler knows what we wish we knew about French verbs and German conjugations. HSing, sing, loving the singing the whole day through -f so do the vocal groups directed by Mr. Van Vorst. He also supervises the music in the grades, conducts girls', boys', and mixed choruses, and was respon- sible for the singing in the operetta, Mr. Stineman directs the band, orchestra and gives lessons on reed, brass, and string instruments. All those posters and paintings you were wondering about came from the art department where Mr. Kline's pupils also redesigned grocery containers.

Rat, tat-tat, tat, so they go, f Thirty-six typewriters all in a row. Typing, shorthand, business training, and transcription comprise a day for Miss Stern, Miss Romanoski, and Miss Shoemaker, who are engaged in training first class stenographers and business men in our commercial department. What could those papers held by the social science teachers be? Those remembering Mr. Lloyd's world history classes say they are copies of the Magna Carta or a war order of Napoleong students from Mr. McCahan's civics classes believe they are copies of the Constitutiong American history students from Miss Long's, Mr. Deitz's, and Mr. Schrock's history classes know they are the XYZ papers. The majority, thinking of Miss Long's social science, insist they are labor contracts. We are almost afraid to learn the truth-they may be just more history tests. History may tell us what happened in the world but we need geography to tell us where. Napoleon's conq sts meant so much more because we had located France and Waterloo on 'ss Meyers' maps. .. Mr. Spoicher Mr. Loh Mr. Wagner l , Mr. Dietz Miss Long' Mr, Lloyd Mr. BlC'C21l12lll Miss Meyers Mr. Sn'-hrock J flu, h +f15+ flfmff Miss Weber , A Mr. Kerin MORE FACULTY Tom, tom, tom! Don't be fright- enedg it's not an lndian war, Miss VVeber is showing Mr. Kerin how she teaches rhythm to the girls in the phys- ical ed. department. Mr. Kerin keeps the boys occupied with basketball, touch-football, Volleyball, soccer, ten- X nis, and mushball, while Miss Weber 'l W thinks that girls should know some- thing about marching, folk dancing, and stunting. Homemakers are the speciality of Miss Hill and Miss Hemminger, who teach the girls to cook and sew. Some girls won't make hard biscuits, nor boys either because Miss Hill has a class of senior boys who are famous for their cinnamon rolls. Besides teaching the girls to place their stitches just so, Miss I-lemminger designs the costumes for plays and operettas. Heroes are made, not born. So are farmers in the agriculture depart- ment where Mr. Billick and Mr. Cleeves are the authorities on vegetable gardening, farm crops, farm management, poultry raising, husbandry, or rural law. The prize winning crops and cattle you saw on your last trip Hmongst the hills of Somerset were fruits from practice projects supervised by Mr. Billick. Amid the buzz of saws and the pounding of hammers in the indus- trial arts department Mr. Dixon moulds Somerset's future carpenters. What does x equal? Oh! Yes: X equals three when the mathematics teachers get together. lt's strange we can remember X because Mr. Menser's 9? problems of eighth grade were still occupying our minds when Mr. Fry- singer first told us about x in algebra. Then, too, Mr. Griffiths imaginaries and square roots and Mr. Frysinger's plane g ometry and trig helped us to forget ur .Qrst experience with X. x J . Qi . , D All. Dixon 'f 1 Miss H irniiigf-1' Nr.

Even though our affairs of state were handled ably by Chuck Morocco, our verdancy gradually became blue with the addi- tion of red always the companion of a blush. With a more just foundation for our sophistication we entered our sopho- more year. But don't be misled: we could claim no connections with Sophists or their art. However, our Sophomore-Senior dance out-Maxwelled Elsa Maxwell. Now that we were juniors we resolved to Hmake the mountain come to 'us' and to personify the evolutions of the oak and acorn. We failed to do a Mahomet, but we did succeed in explaining the intricacies of a quagmire to the Seniors on field day. Taking a wee bit of Schmaltz and a goodly portion of swing, which was stirred round and round in our minds, we gave to our brothers and sisters the Iunior Prom and the Football Dance. We were always so impressed with the seniors of the past but we fail to see anything impressive about ourselves. True we are proud of our ac- complishments but we don't feel the dignity we always associated with our new positions. ln an effort to effect the front as custodians of the under- classmen, we played host and hostess to the Freshmen and sprouted a few gray hairs thereby. ln an attempt to halt these signs of maturity the faculty planned two parties for us and added the Iuniors as a de-aging agent. The year book and the Senior Class play greedily took Seniors from circulation for a few months but restored them in time for the irksome commencement preparations. It is over now and we are reluctant to go. We have seen many leave us in the past and we know now that the ecstasy of seniors at commence- ment time is hypocrisy to the nth degree. lf asked to tell our reactions upon graduating, we Seniors would say that we take more sorrow with us than we leave behind. ,-' ffl YZ ,...:,r,,: 0 2' '-Q OF TI-IIRTY-EIGI-IT CLARISSA ADAMS A'Up and at 'em.

LOUISE RINICK Quiet is the word for her. Secretary Qhe Seniors Say, Q7hanle you Not with mere courtesy attendant upon leaving Somerset High School, but with sincere gratitude we now say- Thank you! First to those responsible for our year book: To Mr. Young of the Pontiac Engraving Company for his plans and suggestions. To Mr. Rock for his patience with heads that would move and eyes that would wink at the wrong time and lips that would not smile at the right time. To Mr. Weigel of the Weigel and Barber Printing Company, To Miss Miles, director of the editing of our book, for helping us pre- serve the memories of work and play, of teachers and school mates, and of sports, clubs, operettas and class plays in our high school. To Mr. Wagner, our financial director, for his success in collecting pennies to make the printing possible, To the business men whose generosity in giving ads gave the book a boost. Next we say thank you to our teachers for their kindness while we were learning rules, becoming acquainted, and finding ourselves among the multitudes while we were green freshmen and for their patience during the remaining years when our essays were late, our contracts not completed on time, and our conjugations not properly learned, when we said ar in- stead of our, and thought Washington crossed the Alps instead of the Delaware, or that Sitting Bull was a statue of a Spanish bull fighter. We are grateful to them, too, for the hours they spent planning and sponsoring the junior and senior parties. To our supervising principal and principal we say the next, Thank you for the peace and order they maintain and the curriculum they plan and execute. Finally to our underclassmen we now express our appreciation of the parties they have given us and the dances which we attended in sweeping gowns with lace Hhankiesf' , Our debt is large and cannot be expressed in mere words, but we hope you feel our sincere appreciation. f33+ TI-IE JUNIOR CLASS MOVES FORWARD l . . .

They have spent three glorious years with their class mates, laughing together, working to- gether and sometimes weeping together. They are justifiably proud of their record, for have they not produced some splen- did members of the football and basketball teams: didn't they play a large role in the cast of the operettag were they not well represented in the choruses and champion athletic teams of the county? They chose their officers wisely elect- ing Wilbert Beachy as the efficient presi- dent, Nelson Davis as vice-president, Nellie Boucher as treasurer and Edna Ealy as secretary. Like a traveler who is starting on his last mile across the beautiful coun- tryside, they realize that the years falling rapidly behind them were toilsome but pleasant. The Iunior-Senior dance was grand and made their hearts swell with pride to know it was a success. They served food to the teachers at institute also and presented a humorous chapel pro- gram for the entertainment of the pupils. They are turning the bend of the road now and they see ahead a glorious senior year. With a sigh of relief but a ton of sadness tffey softly murmur, At last! 6' f35+ 136-x Speedy as the new streamlined limited, brilliant as moonbeams dancing on the crys- tal snow of the North, straight forward as an lndian's arrow is the Class of 1940. Pi- loting their plane on its unwavering course is Iulia Nlorocco who has Walter Moore, Ray Fink, and George Cook as co-pilots. Their clever modern version of Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs, their successful Sophomore-Senior dance, and their hilari- ous and thrilling circus prove that their de- termination is almost as stalwart as the Great Wall of China and that their ambi- tion towers higher than the Empire State building. As in f e fable of the ant and the grass- hopper, :y toiled all year long, selling candy .he football and basketball games until r treasury became so well-filled that it as possible for them to sponsor a Sophomore-Senior dance long to be re- membered. For weeks beforehand, too. these resourceful Sophomores held the school in a tight grip of suspense until the long-waited day arrived at last. Vim, vigor and vitality must have taken root in the heart of each member of this class, for they seem to be inexhaustible and happy at all times. They scurry through the halls with twinkling eyes, radiant smiles and light feet and hearts, cares thrown to the wind and keeping only the future for themselves.

We come before you, by all means, to praise the Freshman Class. who are on their way to conquer, 235 strong in their ranks. They have indeed unique arms including an extraordinarily large Talent Cannon that has been fired in the very midst of our school programs scattering singers, dancers, actors and actresses among us. They also have a gal- lant Spirit-Infantry that refuses to retreat until their plans are faithfully executed. Their jolly general is Dorothy Mognet, who is determined to lead her arm to vic- tory. Her ministers of war are lanet Baker as lieutenant-general, Mae lean Picking as her most able Secretary, while Lewis Dull takes care of the army's financial resources. United we stanclg divided we fall, is their motto. lf we may judge by their at- tendance at the basketball and football games and the Freshman party, they have not yet severed their vow. By giving such plays as HPierre and Pier- rette to prove their dramatic ability, by always being enthusiastic to sell tickets or to participate in various sports events, and by being ambitious to go forward, their brown and gold flag will gain in triumph until in 1924 it will flutter victoriously in the breeze. Yes, we come to praise this class and not to bury it, for we say it is an ambitious class, and we are an honorable school. 'k3Q'k if L10 wi TI-IE EIGI-ITI-I GRADE IS READY FOR BIG I-IIGI-I SCHOOL YEARS All hail the eighth grade! May their character, ambition, and courage cling to them through their next four years of study until at the day of graduation they are handed their Well-earned diplomas. Theirs is a class of keen wits, joyous spirits, and voices that echo far above the others as they cheer our teams on to Victory. No one can dispute the fact that they are a very witty and intelligent group of youngsters Whose little heads, which are continually bobbing up here and there among ,upper-classmen, hold a great deal more of the substance defined as brains than many of the older pupils, They are certainly not Willing to be pushed into the background like the sky on an artist's painting of a ship at sea, but instead they want to be sailing right up in front where they cannot be ignored. These lads and lassies are on their toes ready for the race, to sprint with great strides ahead of the others if there are any tickets to be sold, programs to be arranged, or ma- terial gathered. Indeed they have won the respect of the entire school for their intelligence and ambition.

SEVENTH GRADE SWINGS INTO LINE Clean, fresh, healthy faces still glowing from the early morning scrub- bing, stiffly starched dimities and organdies, new shirts and ties and Wide, sparkling, bewildered eyes are our first impressions of the seventh graders. They have arrived at least an hour before the ringing of the bell to begin classes, and they seem to be living in an enchanted fairyland where hidden elves and imps present delightful surprises at the end of each strange path. The gym and the great auditorium awe them, while squeals of delight echo through the long halls as they uncover the laboratories, showers, type- writers and sewing machines. Suddenly like an alarm-clock, the crisp, shrill ringing of the bell awak- ens them from their day-dreams. They are bewildered and confused. Should they go up these steps or down those? Was their room 102 or 20l? Where does this hall lead and where should they go? Eventually, how- ever, with flushed faces they enter their classes--late. Soon, like the stray pieces of a jig-saw puzzle they fit into the pattern of our school life. Fears banished, they put chewing-gum on seats, wrestle in the halls, and play hide and seek among the upper-classmen. They are the typical seventh graders.

Besides having every one talk at the same time, let us assure you everyone is dash- ing madly about and always in opposite directions. Or it might be one of the two Tonys smashing vases or Hcutting his way into every room of the house, while fencing with McDermott. The clash, clash of swords is very evident in the second act. It also gives the boys a chance to show their skill in the art of handling rapiers. The Seniors chosen for the two casts were very much excited and elated to think that they were going to appear in The Royal Family. Chet and Ozzie as Tony were given a chance to show their manly strength when Iosephyne and lean as Fanny fainted and were carried up the stairs. Cf course, Miss Miles had much trouble in getting all entrances per- fected-especially Tony with his mountains of baggage, his parrots, and his monkey. The love scenes between Perry and Gwen and Iulie and Gil or the argument between Dean and Kitty caused loads of trouble, too. The bustle and work we had! But we wouldn't have missed it for worlds although at the time we were swamped with studying, practicing and just everything. Irs Tony!

Fragments of scenes still float in our memories. With a clash from Sir Ioseph's sword, a swirl of los- ephine's skirts, and a tip from the Captains feathered hat, the bell trio is again under way in our memories. The blue water, the masts, the port- hole, and cabin are woven into these songs and dances.

'k52i' YOUNG VOICES ADD GLAMOUR TO THE AUDITORIUM lust as music soothes the soul of the most savage beast so does it soft- en some of our loudest and most husky voices to harmonize with the othersi To hear them sing one would wonder if they really are some of the same students that we hear yelling from one end of the hall to the other, The mixed chorus, the largest of our three vocal organizations, meets every Wednesday first period. As one walks through the halls at this time, he hears the words of one of the chorus's loveliest songs come float- ing up from the audi- torium. HLong years ago ln old Madrid When softly sighed of love The sweet guitar- This chorus has partic- ipated in more activities than either of the other two. At Christmas it sang for the Candle Light Service at the Reformed Church. Several times during the Christmas holi- The girls' chorus meets every Tues- day fifth period. Every one still remem- bers their singing An Indian Love Song and Neapolitan Nights in assembly. Together the members of these three organizations comprised the greater part of the chorus for the operetta-H. M. S. Pinafore. The boys formed the gallant captain's crew, while the girls repre- sented Sir Ioseph's sisters and his cou- sins and his aunts. It has been the custom in the past to enter one or more of these choruses in the Mr. Van Vorst Director of Vocal Music days different members of the chorus got together and went from house to house singing Christmas carols. The cathedral choir in the Christmas program-Why the Chimes Rang-was largely composed of the members of the mixed chorus. During the processional, while the rich and the poor and the old and the young brought their gifts to the King, the choir sang softly. Before they took their places in the choir, the chorus sang sev- eral numbers including many of our beautiful Christmas carols. Earlier in the year a program was presented in chapel for the student body. The boys' chorus is the smallest of the three but is no less outstanding. As we pass room 22 on Tuesday sixth period, we can hear these boys blending their voices in very attractive harmony. l Each year the student body looks forward to the chapel programs in which this group sings. This year they made quite a hit. Ionah and the Whale was a particular sensation. Forensic League Contest, but this year the plans have been somewhat changed. These organizations, along with the band and orchestra, did not enter any contests at all. Rather, in May, Somerset County held a large Spring Music Festival, in which musical organizations from the en- tire county's schools took part. Our mixed chorus sang The Cherubic Hymn and Kathryn's Wedding Day, while the girls' chorus sang Nightfall in Granada and Golden Slumbers and the boys sang What Shall I Do, My Lawd and The Sun's Done Come Back Again.

They are going through all kinds of maneuvers to form letters and pinwheels and what not. When football season opens, their maneuvers on the field between halves add color and novelty to the games. Before each big game, too, the band leads the stu- dent body up to the diamond for an outdoor Hpepn meeting. At basket ball games they help to cheer the team on to victory. Furthermore they par- ticipated in many town activities. For instance, when the postoffice was dedicated, they helped to welcome Postmaster Farley. To listen to the orchestra before rehearsal has started, one would won- der how the director is able to slow them down long enough to play any classical numbers at all.

However, once they get started, the classical numbers sound very attractive. When the modern Northwest Territory pioneers presented their pageant, the orchestra sup- plied the accompaniment for the songs and action. And they always sup- ply entertainment for the audience between acts of plays. This year neither the band nor the orchestra has entered in any con- tests as they have done in previous years. Rather are they saving their talent for a large music festival to be held in the spring, However, our school was represented at two other big events, Three of the orchestra members were chosen for All-State Orchestra and nine band members were selected for All-Western Band. Besides the Senior band and orchestra, we have another organization which is a junior band and orchestra combined. It has thirty-six members and is organized for the purpose of giving the students experience in en- semble playing and to prepare them for participation in the senior band and orchestra.

'AThose write-ups must be in tomorrowln Do you have those six ads in? ls that picture four or four and a half inches wide? 'Second payment of the year book is due tomorrow, Where's that girl that owes me a quar- ter? Those were just a fraction of the remarks that went into the work of the Eaglet. A typical day included tearing around to identify Ha blonde with a page boy and a striped blouse or a tallish boy with a big smile, biting finger nails over a three hundred word article that re- fused to grow bigger than two hun- dred, seeing hair turn gray because the Udummy was lost or ads wouldn't count correctly, and just plain getting discour- aged. Somehow, though, there was al- ways a silver lining, most often brought about by Miss Miles and Mr. Wagner. lust as Miss Miles kept the literary staff busily writing, typing, and running, so Mr. Wagner watched the trials and trib- ulations of the business staff. Editing and financing a year book we have found to be a curious mixture of fun and drudgery. During days and weeks of drudgery in making copies Plans, proofs, and Ml like this idea, pictures! don't you? f'? x Advertisements and advertising! check with space on a page without sounding cut or padded or in trudg- ing back day after day in hope of seeing a prospective donater of an advertise- ment, we often decided it was just too much. Again, convulsed with laughter over some pictures or some wag's con- tribution we found our tasks great fun. Then finally, one fine day, every sin- gle thing was finished and sent in to be made into our Eaglet. Huge sighs of re- lief issued from the Editor, Iosephyne Stahl, and the Business Manager, Robert Specht. Pauline Baker, Natalie Brant, These ads and charges are due. Mary Alice Griffith, Harold Hay, Ruth Hay, lack Kantner, Grant Miller, Doris Musser, Mary Para, Dorothy Sicheri and Iennie Sicheri, who formed the liter- ary staff, went home at four o'clock, free from staff meetings for the first time in many moons. Likewise the business staff composed of Arthur Belcher, Iohn jacob Frysinger, Sara Heiple, Dorothy Kennell, Richard Lebo, Arthur Mangne, jean Menser, Marlin Shipe, Agnes Shoe- maker and Robert Van Zandt felt many tons lighter after the load of ads and collecting money was off their shoulders. The Eaglet in action! ' i'57t 'k58-k ECI-IOES OF S. I-I. S. . . The rhythmical click, click, click, of typewriters, the rasping of busy pencils, the hum of excited whispers as someone passes on an exciting bit of news--it is the Press Club in action. Every two weeks the members publish the Echoes of S. H. S., giving the students a large slice of school activities, a dash of gossip, and a seasoning of humor to satisfy their con- stant hunger for news of the school. Working diligently behind her desk littered with news story attempts of over-anxious baby journalists is the hustling, bustling editor herself, Ruth Yancey, Ruth has quite a task in publishing the paper but handles her job ex- tremely well, as shown by its popularity among the students. ln the busy cycle of writing, correcting, and re-arranging of news stories, the editor is assisted by Marilyn Wolfersberger, who contributes valuable suggestions and advice for the betterment of the paper. Scurrying from store to store to collect ad money from the local mer- chants is Nancy Roy, the advertising manager. Satisfying querulous adver- tisers is not the easiest task in the world, but Nancy takes it gallantly. The Do Not Disturbn sign is on Helen Bittner's desk for a definite purpose. Helen is the business manager, who is dizzy from adding the ex- penses of the club and getting a different total at each trial. But try, try again is her motto as a willing worker. The thrilling sports events are described by Alvin Glessner, who is most capable for the job as he is a member of the football and basketball teams. Who has not admired the clever block-prints that add color and ap- peal to the front page of each paper? They are the skillful art of Edna Robinette's deft fingers. Among these have been the Irish shamrock, George Washington, the Valentine heart, and good old St. Nick. VLVJXI nfl'- . George Cook Marilyn Wo1fersberg'er Ruth Yancey Helen Bittner Nanci? Roy J.

The present roster numbers 17-12 girls, 5 boys. ln this academic organization, membership is restricted to fifteen per cent of the senior class and five per cent of the junior class. Faculty mem- bers vote upon the eligibility of students on a ballot especially prepared for this electiong in this manner new members are determined. Induction ceremonies, of which there are two every year, are held as auditorium programs. The entire student body witness the symbolic initia- tion of lighted candles and impressive responses repeated by the candidates at the request of the president. Activities of the local chaper are for the most part scholastic or aca- demic. Stressing their four cardinal requirements of Character, Scholarship, Leadership and Service, the group inspires honor roll students every six weeks by individual letters of congratulation and encouragement. The pres- ent membership have accredited themselves as being the first group to in- troduce student government of any form in Somerset High School, Novem- ber 10, 1937, designated as Student Day in all school routine, was super- vised by the society. Faculty members cooperated to select student teach- ers and a student administrative staff. The National Honor Society re- ceived praise for this participation in American Education Week from the regular staff, the local newspaper, and the community. Social events have included a banquet at Christmas for alumni members, induction breakfasts, and monthly meetings at the homes of the members. i601 HALL MONITORS WATCH YOU-f lt's not so safe to be in the halls during class periods unless a student has permission from his teacher, since the hall patrol and monitor system was introduced. Order is heaven's first law is the motto of these students who maintain system and regularity in our halls. Theirs is a never-ending cry of Where are you going and who sent you? LIBRARY CLUB HELPS YOU-lust send an S. O. S. to the Library Club if you have a tricky bunch of references to find. These girls know the library routine thor- oughly from the intricacies of the card cata- logue to the efficient rebinding of Worn books. During their free period they bustle through the library helping bewildered under-classmen. And to all these abilities the club adds a culin- ary turn. lust Witness the frequent club feeds and the annual supper for the football team! HALL MONITORS LIBRARY CLUB DANCING CLUB IS NIMBLE-In this club the young Lochinvars of our high school learn to trip the light fantastic. They have been taught not only to do the simple steps but to perform the famous Big Apple. They have been Willing and eager pupils, although some of them are still rather shy about dis- playing their abilities in public. Many a girl is thankful for this club. GENERAL SCIENCE CLUB EXPERL DANCING MENTS-l'NoW look what's happened! Someone turned the white light on and ruined these pictures. These Words might be heard coming from the developing room where the members of the General Science Club try their luck at developing pictures. During the club period the members prepare many compli- cated experiments to prove known facts and they also delve into the fields of astronomy and electricity. CLUB GENER AL SCIENCE CLUB i'6l'k ir62'k NEEDLE CLUB 5 WE NEEDLE CLUB IS HANDY-Maybe you can induce one of the girls of the Needle Club to weave a colorful purse for your new summer outfit, or a ruge to blend with your bedroom's color scheme. Or one of them may even knit a dress or crochet some lace for you. All of this they have learned to do be- sides making any type of garment for them- selves. Can you imagine how proud they will be of this year's handiwork? 5 VV'S KEEP HOUSE- We will work, won't we? declare the Five W girls, En- thusiastic junior and senior girls have formed this club to discuss and practice efficient short-cuts in homekeeping and homemaking. During some club periods tantalizing odors flood from the cooking labg during others, the girls sew or discuss problems that their books have presented. The Five W's aspire, also, to membership in the National Organization of Home Economics. INTRAMURAL SPORTS CLUB CURRENT EVENTS Cllilll l INTRAMURAL SPORTS CLUB IS VER- SATILE-Do you need a referee? The lntra- mural Sports Club can supply one for any game you wish-more than a hundred of them in fact, In their club meetings they learn all the rules of basketball, kick ball, volley ball, tennis-why enumerate them-as well as the games themselves. Furthermore, they be- come efficient and alert sportsmen in both re- fereeing and playing the games. CURRENT EVENTS CLUB READS-In order to keep in step with the march of pass- ing events, a junior high school organization, the Current Events Club, spends its club periods discussing happenings of the day. This year the boys have spent much time on the grave situation in Europe. Day after day they pore over the pages of Current Events Weekly, Scholastic, Time and the daily news- papers-trying to figure what this world situ! ation is all about. i531 1-544: TRAVEL CLUB GETS READY-Sport clothes packed. Passports registered. Trav- eller's checks certified. Here are some of the expressions that become familiar to this group. The passengers in the Travel Club are ready to sail on the Queen Mary from New York on a world tour. When they arrive in Eng- land, they plan to conquer that English broad Ha . As they visit India, Chile, and Hawaii, they learn to go native there, too. GERMAN CLUB GOES DEUTSCHER - Deutscher Verein is the name by which this club of German enthusiasts goes. Current problems of Germany and study of the coun- try itself keep these German students on their toes. The real joy of the German Club comes in singing German songs. Auf Wiedersehn, and Ei Du Schoneu are most popular. Keep your ears open and you may catch the tune from a vagabond German troubadour-and there are certainly plenty around. TRAVEL CLUB DEUTSCHER VEREIN MODEL AIRPLANE CLUB TAKES OFF-Watch your head when you enter the wood-working shopl No, those Whizzing ob- jects are not phantoms but model airplanes in action. These boys-perhaps some of them are future aviators-draw plans and then construct their brain children, These cloud- scoopers are built from light weight materials. The completed models are then sent to Pitts- burgh where they compete in the junior Air Meet. IUNIOR MECHANICS CLUB TRIES IT OUT-It is really loads of fun! Although the junior Mechanics Club is conducted like a class, the officers of the club are in charge and do all the inspecting and judging of the work. However, they don't do everything with their hands, for they have talks on sub- jects relating to industry, They pass through the different phases of shop-Wood, machine- ry, electricity, metal, and safety in forestry. To encourage them, they receive pins which show their progress and advancement. MODEL AIRPLANE CLUB JUNIOR MECHANICS CLUB ir65'k 'k66-A' CLUB TRI-HI-Y CLUB S CLUB FLAUNT LETTERS-Here are sixteen proud wearers of the Varsity S, won in either football or basketball. During club periods they meet with Mr. Lloyd to discuss sports. Aside from the S, a club member may also wear a pin, designed from a football or a basketball, as the wearer is entitled. How- ever, a lady fair of each doughty knight of gridiron or cage is likely to wear the pin more proudly than would its owner. TRI-HI-Y CLUB UPHOLDS CHAR- ACTER-To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character, aim the girls of the Tri-l-li-Y Club. They aspire, also, to serve home, church, and school as well as to use pure words, think pure thoughts, and achieve pure actions. Among their services to the community were the Christmas bas- kets that they packed for needy families. One of the newer clubs, the Tri-Hi-Y has had en- rolled forty girls. DRAMATICS JUNIOR HIGH DRAMATICS JUNIOR CLUB CLUB IUNIOR DRAMATICS CLUB PER- FORMS-This group of Sophomores and Freshmen plan something interesting in the field of dramatics for every club period. Sometimes they enact playsg at other times they interpret parts of plays, judge each others acting ability, present readings, hold con- tests in which they guess important actors and actresses, or have discussions on the need for effective scenery, flaws in pictures, and eval- uating in motion pictures from the standpoint of characterizations. bb IUNIOR HIGH DRAMATICS CLUB ARE PIIPPETEERS-Perhaps Tony Sarges will be the result of the Iunior High School Dramatics Club. They have worked like beavers on the project of puppet making. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Mani- kin and Minikin are the puppet shows on which they are working. Beside puppet con- struction they discuss trends in the world of make-believe, read plays, present skits, and study movies. 1671 fggf F. F. A. ARE FUTURE FARMERS-In the F. F. A. we find boys who want to be the future farmers of America. The F. F. A. is a national organization with the objective of studying vocational agriculture, Each year this group sends delegates to county and state conventions and to State Teachers College where the annual State F. F, A. contests are held. Representatives this year won prizes for milk judging, potato growing, and honey. PHOTOPLAY CLUB SHOWS MOVIES -Through the energies of the Photoplay Club movies on any subject are available for every class room. Some of the club members are already licensed operators of the moving pic- ture machine, and all are both interested and proud to make it available when needed. Sev- eral times during the year the club sponsors and directs a full hour of moving pictures. It is interested in taking pictures, too, and has a well equipped dark room in which to develop and print the pictures. F. F. A. PHOTOPL AY CLU B l , , H, CHEMISTRY CLUB INVESTIGATES -Experiments don't always spell work--they may spell fun. Chemistry and physics pupils who find class time inadequate for their de- sires, find the Chemistry Club a solution to their problems. This club is a member of a national organization for chemistry clubs. It tackles modern physics and chemistry prob- lems through reports and discussions, to say nothing of backing up the theory of these projects by actual and often involved experi- ments. SENIOR DRAMATICS CLUB DOES THINGS- Come on, gang, let's learn how to make faces! We mean, how to apply make- up for the stage. Seniors and juniors may learn the details of production here. They are taught how to apply make-up for the stage, how to make flowers, how to work stage lights, how to make costumes, how to set the stage, and how to paint scenery. When plays or operettas are given, this versatile club asf sists with every detail. CHEMISTRY CLUB SENIOR DRAMATICS CLUB fggf 1704: ART CLUB KNITTING CLUB 'IN ART CLUB IS VERSATILE, TOO- Perhaps in the future one of these club mem- bers will become editor of a home decorating magazine. This is one of the many fields in which the boys and girls who began their training in the Art Club may enter. Among their many projects are numbered soap sculp- turing, weaving, posters, and torn paper pic- tures. Some of the girls are making a model house, too. KNITTING CLUB FLASH NEEDLES- The flash of clicking needles is accompanied by the chatter of busy tongues. Beginners in knitting learn the basic stitches, and before they may start on an advanced project, they must complete small sample squares which they pin proudly on the club bulletin board. The advanced knitters learn more complicated stitches and make garments of their own choice. LATIN CLUB IS ROMANESQUE- Let us convince people that Latin is not a dead language! say the members of S. P. Q. R. These students are interested in capturing Ro- man life and customs. This year's projects included a banquet served a la Romanis, a public performance of the Dance of the Vestal Virgins, and a series of living statuary groups posed by the members in imitation of classi- cal subjects, LAITN CLUB TREE CLUB TREE CLUB GOES NATURALISTIC- Since reforestation is one of our most acute problems, the Tree-Clubers are learning Worth- while material, and at the same time having fun. This year the members determined to study and classify the trees on our compus. Several field trips have proved sources of knowledge. Projects of the club have included the planting of horse chestnut and oak trees. f71+ 4 'k72'A' THE PATROL ASSURES SAFETY- Sponsored by the AAA luniontown Branchl, the school patrol functions with a professional style. On wet days and sunny, on February days or May days, the patrol directs the hu- man and mechanical traffic, and discourages the take-a-chance attitude. During football season it is its task to see that the cars of spectators are parked efficiently and safely. The high spot of the year, for the Patrol, how- ever, is the trip to Washington each spring. PATROL CAMERA CLUB CAMERA CLUB CATCHES EVERY- ONE- Watch the birdie! warn the ener- getic devotees of Mr. Eastman's particular art. Although the Camera Club is new in our high school this year, it has been up and coming-to say nothing of rushing here, there. and everywhere. The Eaglet in particular has benefitted by its activity and energy. Have you noticed how clear are the prints and how varied and interesting the subjects of the snapshots the Camera Club has donated? f TUMBLING CLUB TUMBLES ON-1 Don't be alarmedl These boys can tumble farther than that without injury. Theyihave trained and trained until they are really hard. What is an aerial spiral, and incredible leap, the accurate balancing of human pyramids to them? When the signal comes and mind dic- tates, their muscles actually coordinate, The Tumbling Club has given us many an inter- esting hour in assembly, to say nothing of the numbers of boys it has developed into splen- did physical specimens. 1 T UMBLIN C CLUB 173+ +741 Sapoloskie's flower garden Tough stuff-ugh! Really? Going upl No soapl Gee-pitchers! Book-i-men. Nice work tif you can eat itl. Developed book worm- Ha miller. No, who'd a thunk it. Albert Spaulding absent. Forgery. TI-IE TIME I-IAS COME--- The six gentlemen in the upper corner have had so many tacets that they have become immobile like Lot's wife. To our right an exclusive shot from Barcelona taken shortly after General Franco's 28th assault at the gates. These patriot women are defiantly filling bullet holes in the walls of their home. The men are no Hsea biscuits for they are hastily preparing stink bombs to repel the insurgent forces. Other nations meanwhile solemnly resolve not to be caught napping as we see by these shots of Madame Le Farvaix's dress salon in Paree. The next six shots will be of special interest to you candid camera fiends. They were all taken with a 349 473' X4V9874 2X3 lens and using with the supersentivite film a type FU shutter. Of course you must push the click, really. Comes now the rest of the Boston Sinfonetto but they too are solidified. So many people went to Florida last winter and inactivity made of them martyrs of Music. Sad tale, no? To our right we have three boys waiting for Santa Claus but the chim- ney is a bit uncomfy. Oh, mel Man's ingratitude. TO TALK OF MANY THINGS According to our records, the man in the upper corner is tending a furnace, and after checking with numerous authorities on fire-tending we found no definite proof on the contrary, so evidently that is what he must be doing. The next picture was taken at the home-coming of Tyrone Power. Oh, you should see him! He's simply divine! He was wearing a grey suit, a green hat, and, oh, yes, that's the local band out to greet him. This next scene is from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It depicts the scene between Hamlet and Osric where they are seeking the Holy Grail, and- or was that some other picture? Well, anyway, while the girls in the next picture look it up, let's look in on the dance below. Do you see that boy with the white shoes?

Now if you will notice that the boys are all wearing sweaters and that two are wearing glasses you cannot help but notice the contrast to the door. Next year we will try seven boys.

Football, one of the two varsity sports sponsored by Somerset High School, has its place in every loyal student's life whether on the playing field or in the bleachers. Two weeks before the regular curricular activities start, the would-be football player starts practicing. A candidate must follow rigid training rules and devote much of his time to strenuous muscle-building exercise after the regular school day is over. A boy can't hope to represent his school on the gridiron without some scholastic achievment for he must secure passing grades in his subjects to be eligible for the active squad. 4 TO TI-I RILL CROWDS The only material reward the football player gets for his services is the coveted varsity To he eligible for the the boy must play in twelve of the total quarters played, or play in the Meyersdale game-the one lei- ter game.

Z fmt ,N Q5 if-33 ir fgqf GROANS, MOANS, AND SLOAN'S The season of 1937 was not the brightest for the Orange and Black. Though the average weight of the players was high this season, the boys seemed to lack the ability of real offensive playing. Coach Lloyd's boys played eight scheduled games, four at the home stadium and four on foreign soil. The Somerset squad brought home two victories under their belts and two ties, but they had to give their opponents four wins out of the eight contests. The Orange and Blackeopened their season away from home at Bos- well. After a rather dull game the gun went off with the score at O-O. For the second game of the season we had Portage as our guest. This was the first home game and our hopes ran high, but the score in favor of Portage ran higher than our hopes. The squad put up a real battle but had to succumb to a stronger team, 26-6. The game with Bedford, on October 1, proved to be the brightest game of the season in every respect. Not a cloud marred the sky as a throng of Somerset rooters sat in the bleachers sans coats and cheered their team to a 61-0 victory. Every lad on the squad saw action in the game, and nearly every player seemed to be at his best. The most thrilling play of the game was Chet Miller's 95 yard gallop. Chet intercepted a Bedford forward pass on his own five-yard line and dashed madly up the field for a touch- down. Just at few more exciting minutes of the game After their victory over Bedford, the Orange and Black smashed into the visiting Shade Township boys on October 8. Somerset found a dif- ferent gang of ball toters from those they had met on the previous week, and consequently met with a 38-0 defeat. On October 14, the Orange tra- veled to the Flood City for a game with Conemaugh at the Point Stadium. Again the Somerset war- riors were victims of a heavy, hard- pounding, and determined team. The final score was 12-6, in favor of Conemaugh. While a few shivering spectators fought rain and mud, Somerset's Orange and Black fought Franklin to a O-O score. Being outweighed and outplayed, the Lloyd men put their backs to the wall and held off all of Franklin's touchdown threats. Thursday, November 5, found Somerset visiting its hilltop oppo- nents at Westmont. Eager for a second win of the season, the season, the Orange and Black put up a Eight, but the Hill Toppersy' put up a better one and snatched the game to the tune of 13-0. Armistice Day meant the last and the great tussle of the season-the Meyersdale game. Somerset's men realized a win would bring a rath- er poor season to a good close, while a loss would mean oblivion. With strong determination the Lloyd men finally ironed out a 6-0 victory. Until the final minutes of the game neither team could score. Then the Orange started a series of brilliant forward passes. Charlie Cyga heaved three successive for- wards, the first to Captain Chuck Morocco for 21 yards, the second to Earl Saylor for 7 yards, and the third to Chet Miller in the end zone making the score 6-0, Q , vw ll ,KW l Q if iii .

Competitors for the coveted varsity positions have been down on the gym- nasium floor for weeks practicing those long shots from the center of the floor, making their foul shots infallible, or banking the ball with a certain finesse. The rivalry in basketball among the teams comprising District 5 is fully as keen as that in football, and this sport is, perhaps, more generally followed by avid fans. Prospects for a successful basketball season before the season opened, for four lettermen, Capt. R, Barkman, Chester Miller, Charles Morocco, and Alvin Glessner, were back. From the standpoint of games Won and lost, this year's team was the most successful of all previous Somerset teams for they won seventeen and lost only four. At the end of the season, the team placed second in the Somerset County Class A League. The first two games, with the faculty and alumni, proved the power of the team in action for they won both engagements handily. On their first trip abroad, the team ran into a very capable opponent in Westmont's quin- tet. ln the only overtime game of the year, the Orange team was edged by a 38-37 score, Over the Christmas vacation, two victories were won from Rockwood and Bolivar, a newcomer to our schedule. Figuring prominently in these two games was Somerset's excellent zone defense, for these two teams to- gether scored but sixteen points. Th Orange cagers were successful in their first two UA League con- tests, first defeating Berlin by a large score on their own floor, and then de- feating Meyersdale, an ancient rival, by a respectable score. Then in the first afternoon game of the year, Somerset Township was defeated to the tune of 32-20. After a 33-23 disaster at Windber, Somerset whipped into shape and won the next eight games-taking Bedford, Meyersdale, Boswell, Berlin, Shade Township, Somerset Township, Westmont tavenging the early defeatj, and Bedford in rapid succession. Perhaps the most disheartening game of the season came at Boswell. After leading over three quarters of the way, Somerset was edged out in the last few minutes of play. However, no Somerset team has ever beaten Bos- well on their own floor. Before the largest crowd of the year, Windber was defeated by the score of 31-23, thus evening another account. The following week the regular season was closed with a close victory over Shade Township. Since Somerset placed second in the county, they were entitled to enter the county play-offs. However, in their first engagement of the tournament, our team was defeated in the third encounter with Somerset Township. This year's team was the second Somerset team to have an undefeated record on the home floor. It averaged 31 points a game to the opponents' 20. The Iunior Varsity also completed the most successful season of all Somerset Iunior Varsity's, for they won eighteen games and lost only three. ln the course of the season, they defeated every team they played at least once and most of their opponents fell short in both engagements. A high point of their season was the defeat of Cochran Iunior High's team which was Iohnstown's Iunior High Champion. The Iunior Varsity averaged 32 points a game to the opponents' 14, Stmuling' tleft to riglltjk-Coach, Mr. McCahng YYZIH Gzrldor, Miller, llrztnt, Hay, Forney, Ludy, Glessner, Beachy. i sitting fleft to Fi2'llfl+PUCPi, Henderson, Coffroth, Hnrkman, T, Morocco, Flut-Ii, L.

The curiosity of all the girls taking physical education-gym to most of us-was aroused early this fall when they noticed the new equipment in the dressing room. After making loads of wild guesses, we discovered that the board covered with squares was a posture board and the bars suspended from the ceiling were used in the correction of our posture, The posture board is used to diagnose the defects in carriage. Per- haps one of our shoulders is higher than the other or the blades may extend over too many squares. Thus the board convinced the subject that she has allowed her shoulders to become round. Many of us found that we were holding our heads forward or that our chins were not held in. We learned that a vertical line should extend through the ear and the center of the neck and body-straight through the ankles so that the weight of the body falls on the center of the arch. NOW WE VISIT THE GYM Miss Mary VVeber keeps the girls moving Can it be thunder on the left? Oh, no, what was that? It seems to be coming from the girls' gym so don't be alarmed, it is only loyal supporters cheering their team on to victory in basketball, volley ball, or captain ball, The intramural tournaments are played among the classes from seventh to twelfth grade. Each homeroom organizes its own team and such strug- gling as does take place between the teams! But don't be misled and think that all we do is play games. We take exercises too. If we see some one limping through the halls we rest assured that the girls were standing on their heads or being human balls the day before. The Sophomores alone seemed to be interested in the earliest tourna- ment of the season, tennis. There were several girls who participated, with Iulia Morocco carrying off the honors. The Freshman started out in high playing kickball. They seemed to enjoy it immensely with 201 coming out on top after some very strenuous games.

Karin is the dynamo behind the Lloys' lxitrarnural Sports :md Volleyball From the very birth of physical education in Somerset High School to the present time, rapid growth has taken place in every phase of the Boys' Physical Education Department. The biggest step in promoting physical education was that of building a modern gymnasium, and with the birth of the gymnasium came intramural sports in the fall of 1931. Intramural athletics have real values for the high school boy. Probably the most attractive value is that of recreation. All work and no play makes lack a dull boy. Very few boys have to be forced to go to gym classes or be coaxed to take part in intramural sports. Sportsmanship, one of the best attributes of mankind, is fostered throughout the intramural athletics program. The boys learn to play not only for the sake of playing and winning games, but for the sake of learning to respect the rules and come out smiling after a defeat, a quality so worth while in later life. The major intramural sport of Somerset High is basketball. Winter' time passes rapidly with two games of basketball scheduled for every noon. Rivalry among home rooms becomes very tense and is as important to some as the inter-scholastic contests. A series of games is played throughout the winter, and in March a double elimination tournament decides the cham- pionship teams in each class. The winning teams are given the right to buy letters to designate their achievement. Ranking second in support is intramural mushball, the first intramural sport played each school term and the first intramural sport to be adopted by Somerset High in 1931. The first class tennis court has introduced another popular sport to the already long list including mushball, soccer, touch football, basketball, foul shooting, volley ball, track and field events, and athletic contests. Intramural basketball saw quite a few upsets this season. The cham- pion five of the school hailed from a junior room, number 22, The senior champions were from room 112 where 212 was the runner-up team in the A little more spinach. Left-right. Up we go! Yumphl Going down. On your mark-1 Skinning the snake. The snakes skinned. Get it over! My serve. More yumphl senior national league. A team of small but wiry boys, known as 212 C, ran away with the American League honors. Room 22 was the champion junior team with 216 trailing on their heels. A flashy team from 218, a sopho- more home room, took the sophomore championship while 209 came in sec- ond place. Among the freshman teams, room 214 showed more real bas- ketball than any other freshman team and won the freshman tournament without much trouble. Room 110 was the runner-up freshman team. Be- sides being the winners of the freshman tournament, room 114 was the only team in the school that didn't lose a game. They even beat room 218, the winners of the sophomore tournament. With the completion of the project for flooding a large portion of the playground for skating next year, another interesting sport will be added to the already varied physical education program. This space in other than cold weather is available for baseball, mushball, etc., and then can be flooded in a very few hours when freezing weather arrives. ir941i' Top Row ilvft to rigglltj Wlt'llUl!4Oll, lluv, Iiznker, T, Kl0lQ'lH2ill, l'llllCl'I, Ludy, Coat-li Karin, S1-1-oncl ltlI3W' AllDI'lgLfllt, Brzmt, G11-ssner, Yan ljtllflll.

HERE ARE VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONS Volley ball has been an intramural sport in Somerset High for quite some time, but it has been a varsity game only the last two years. ln the 1936-1937 season Somerset emerged victorious over Boswell, Friedens, Stonycreek and Saxton. ln fact, Somerset was district 5 champion for the 1936-1937 and 1937-1938 seasons. Though the varsity team is made up in a rather informal manner, it has proven very successful for the last two season. Whoever wishes may come out to practice and show his ability as a volley ball player, When the day of the district 5 tournament arrives, Mr. A, Kerin, the coach, selects six players from the group and uses the other players as reserves. 1937 STANDING Final Match lst Place ................
