It began in September in twentyfeight, Hardly a senior will graduate, Who forgets that famous month and year. Demure little Freshies we started out, Hardly daring to speak or shout, But what a difference as months flew by, We found that of leaders we were not shy, For of honor roll pupils we had a great number, Nor in athletics did our class members slumber. In Algebra, Science, and Latin we delved 'Til in june with regret UQ our books we shelved. Then we said, Goodby, and with arrogant air Boastfully strode to the Sophomore Chair. This year football quite strongly held sway O'er Williams, Merano, and Currie, they say, While Peg Billingsley made for herself a hame As did Elma Ambler, basketball was the game. Betty Gensamer at the piano did her part, While Orville Rudolph was devoted to art. Already, you see, success drew our cart. In our Junior year with difficulty did grapple, Elma Ambler, Fisher, Bartlett, and Appel. When they were admitted to the N. H. S,, They lighted the candle with finesse. With president John Clark as our chief grenadier Our class organization concluded this third year. Then we climbed the ladder to the Senior Step, Where the Hallowe'en party was full of pep, 9 In semester B, ten students made Of the N. H. S. the difficult grade: Jean Henderson and Edna Dague, fCh, disregard the rhyme, we beg, Regina McKeever, Ruth Seitz, and Helen Kauf QTO them all our hats we doff.j Messrs. McGiffin, Kripp, Lehne, Lewis, Keilen, Burson, Wheeler, and Schweitzer deserve praise, we ken. Meanwhile, of course, our athletes were spry, Deering and Cagni on the floor team yelled Fie! To all opposition, while Schoener gained fame As a Champion Fish, and great made his name. This term, Sam Williams was made class president, Edna Dague to write minutes all effort bent, VicefPresident Hoppman took over his task, And Richard Lewis donned the treasurer's mask, Selma Conley with able committee so rare, Made the midfyear prom a brilliant affair. Next we became fullffledged Senior A's And now began to count lessening days. To the end of the trailg but first, the Class Play- Morton Harris, The ShowfOff, just brought down the house, While Dorothy McClaren was his beautiful spouse, Then still more of our SeniorfA Class elite In the N. H. S. were given a seat: There were Margaret Fleming and Marion Wahl Grace Keib, Betty Gensamer, but they aren't all. , Dorothy Rode, Mildred Thomas were 'nitiated, too, Messrs. Wehner and Staas were among the new. Pretty soon Senior Day'll be coming along, A day crammed with stunt and story and song, And the picnic and prom that we'll never forget, Recognition Day, Commencement, the best event yet, But forever and always let's remember also, Onward and Upward! our class's motto. OPHESTE New Records Made at Recent Olympics Los Angeles, Calif. ,lime 21, 1952-The United States is far in the lead at the Olympic games now going on. A great number of places were taken today by Americans who broke several wor1d's -records. ln the swimming competition Freddie Thumpston and Oscar Schoenetf both established some new records. Thiumpston swam 100 yards breast stroke in 116.0050006000098 seconds. .Schoener swam the kilometer, free style in 8 minutes, 333333333 sec- ronds. On the parallel ba-rs and horses George Wheeler and William Park- -er did outstanding work. The United States track team took first place in the games. The relay was especially interesting. A new idea was instituted by the .team, composed of William Welsh, Charles Wrrobleski, Walter Mowery .and Edward Loy, who ran with such speed that it was necessary to have buckets of water at each end of' the stretch to cool the soles of the runners, shoes which had become white hot. The shot put was won by James McGuire who heaved the :shot an unheard of distance of 74-.9984 feet. ln the W0111CH'S division Margaret Billingsly and Dorothy Mutschler -carried off the honors in the basket- ball th-row and standing broad jump respectively. Miss Billingsley es- tablished a record of 250 feet, and Miss Mutschler jumped 16.223 feet. Theatre Column The Scarlet Cap, now playing at the William's Theatre starring Frank Moore is a ,show well worth seeing. lt is a story of a modern high school youth who as he is ap- proaching commencement has a great internal struggle as to whether he should vote for caps and gowns or scarlet suspenders and lavender neckties. Mr. Moore portrays his part very well and shows that he has made much prep- aration for this picture. The stage show features the comedian, Harry Severn and Frank Hoppman and his orchestra. At the First night performance the crowd was so Auto Hits Koppers Building Pittsburgh, Pa. June 20, 1952- While returning home from a theatre party, the brilliant young actress, Dorothy MacClaren, ac- companied by William Frankel, and her director, Robert Chambers, had a rather remarkable accident. The car containing the trio, driven by Mr. Frankel, was moving slowly along Grant Street at about eleven thirty p. m., when all of a sudden and for no apparent reason fsays Mr. F rankeli the huge Koppers Building ran smack into the auto- mobile! Frankel was all set to go through the windshield, but unfor- tunately for him, the windshield was made of non-shatterable glass. Luckily Officer Joseph Capuano was on hand to see that justice was done, but this worthy man seemed to be under a misconception for he insisted that the three accompany him at least as far as the station house. Judge Watson Ross, who has a reputation of adhering strictly to the letter of the law, was presiding in night court. Apparently the judge was not up to form last night for he could not see Frankel's side of the story in spite of the latter's frantic protestations that it was quite clear. Mr. Staas, the insur- ance agent for the damaged build- ing, soon arrived to prosecute and he claimed large damages. Judge Ross finally decided that the case must be tried in court and set the trial for the early future. large that Ray Cagni, manager of the theatre, was forced to close the box office. The Brookline Kid, starring Marion Wahl is to open tonight at the Critchley and Crouser Theatre. The play has had a notable run at the Lammert Theatre in New York and comes here with recommenda- tions of the famous critics, Ida Mae Ulmer and Eileen Welch. The lead- ing lady, Miss Wahl, has achieved notable success upon the stage and her home town, Pittsburgh, is fas she always saysl the best town on her tour. Church Dedicated Ypsilanti, Mich. .lune 21, 1952 -The dedication ceremony for the second church to be erected here is to be held this coming Sunday at 10:30 a. m. The newly organ- ized congregation has selected for its pastor the Rev. Carl Fischer. The Rev. Theodore Schweitzer, pastor of the other church of the town, is also to take part in the dedicatory services. The new church is the latest in architecture and was designed by the well-known archi- tect, Arthur Byrnes. The Rev. Carl Fischer is a native of Pittsburgh. The Oshkosh Anti Harmonic. Orchestra Makes Big Sensation Oshkosh, June 20, 1952-The Oshkosh Antiharmonic Orchestra made its first public appearance Wednesday evening, and so im- pressed the audience with its in- spiring selections that the police, fOshkosh's finestl had to be called to protect the members of the or- chestra from the well-meaning but over-zealous audience. The Osh- kosh Orchestra, Samuel Rudt, con- ducting, played to a packed house last evening. This society is extremely fortunate in having a talented Bass Fiddler, Wade Janeway, and they gave him many solos which he executed per- fectly and with the wonderful swing and rhythm of movement and beau- ty of tone which only a skillful bass fiddler can give. The program closed with the beautiful lullaby, Good- night Sweetheartf' For a moment the audience sat in enraptured sil- ence, then with a great cheer they rushed en masse upon the orchestra and particularly the bass fiddler. The 'rest of the orchestra had been rather trampled upon by the crowd. None were killed but among the injured were John Bietzel, William Conway, Roger Hopkins, and Mr. Budt, the conductor whose dignity was very much rufl1ed by the dem- onstration. Chief of Police, Andy Currie arrived only in time to see the 'remnants of the audience leav- ing through the doorways with the proud but uncomfortable Mr. Tane- Way on their shoulders, Electric Company ' Announces Engineers on New Station Pittsburgh, Pa.

June 18, 1952- Exactly two years ago today Dr. E. N. Curcio, noted entomologist, set forth from the city of Bengal to undertake the long and dangerous journey to the lonely shores of the little lake CHISKABISKAWISKA- CHU. With Curcio went a large staff of able assistants. Among these were Ralph Fredericks, noted big game hunterg George Wehner, prominenlt herpetologistg William Redic, William Parker, and many other well known scientists. Mr. Jerome 0. King was to have gone in the capacity of guide, but due to Mr. King's peculiar habit of be- ing late, he arrived at the dock just in time to see the funnels of the ship disappearing over the horizon. As a result of this unfortunate OC- curtrence, Andrew Eger, who Weill as cook, wf1S forced to pinch-hit in Mr. King's place. The purpose of the .expedition was to secure a specimen of the extremely rare papilio Oringetorix, a species of butterfly found only in the imme- diate vicinity of this tinY lake- Previous to this time, no white man had ever rested his gaze on the hot, torpid, cozy waters of the little lake with the big name. When about twenty-five miles from the goal the brave expedition was waylaid by a large tribe of head-hunting canni- bals. Every member of the expedi- tion from the big game hl1I1lCf I0 the cook was murdered in this aw- ful slaughter. Curcio alone escaped with his life, and even he was more dead than alive, when the cannibals finally had satisfied their peculiar appetites and proceeded on their way. Did he turn back at this terrible loss? lndeedl Not this in- trepid soul. He had no intention of permitting the deaths of his COIIIIHETCS to have been in vain. He pushed on to the dreary shores of Notable Speakers at Teachers' M eeting, Harrisburg, Pa.. June 20, 1952 -The teachers of the public schools of Pennsylvania met today in Har- risburg to discuss teaching methods, the moron in the school, and many other problems equally interesting. Many prominent figures in the field of education spoke to the conven- tion. Miss Ambler gave an inter- esting talk in which she argued that the schools' systems should adopt a pencil with a lead 11f128 in diameter instead of the present one in use which is 3f32 in dia- meter. Helen Kauf, in her inspir- ing lecture, 'SConsider The Pupil, said that the chairs in our high schools are very difficult to work in. She suggested, as an improve- ment, that the chairs should have ann rests on bothsides, and a foot rest permanently attached to the owner's chair. Both Virginia Bein- hauer and Edna Dague were en- thusiastic in their demands for longer vacations and a four-hour day. Henry Lehne, superintendent of schools, frowned horribly on this suggestion and ably held up his contentions by citing the example of the days when he went to high school. A The other speakers were Dorothy McKeever, who spoke on f'The Evils of the Notebook System, and Ruth Pietsch, who discussed the importance of the Deep Knee Bend as an aid to developing a beautiful style of hand writing.

Guiding himself by the stars, the moss on the trees, and various other woodsmen's signs best known to himself, he finally reached Bengel nearly dead from hunger and exposure. D-r. Frederick Til- bury immediately took charge of him and sent him back to America as speedily as possible. The but- terfly was sent to Mr. Jesse Schnier, entomologist of the Carnegie Mu- seum in Pittsburgh. A memorial has been erected in Washington, D. C., to the memory of the brave men who perished in the. lndian jungles, martyrs of science. European Tourrsts Vrszt Historic Spots Canterbury, England. June 20, 1952-The tour of Europe now be- ing made by a number of American authoresses is at present centered about the historic places of Eng- land. Yesterday the party, consist- ing of Jean Eakin, Ellen Brennan, Florence Kyle, Eleanor Josephson, Florence Gibbs, and Grace Roth- weiler, visited Shakespeare's birth- place at Stratford-Upon-Avon. To- day, they are examining the Cathe- dral at Canterbury which is told about in Chaucepr's iiCanterbury Talesf, Miss Kyle, who is writing a play centering about this part of the country, is collecting a great amount of valuable material. Elean- or .losephson and Grace Rothweiler, joint authoresses of the novel, 'iEx- periences of a High School Maid, were especially interested in the beauty of the English countryside. Florence Gibbs and Ellen Brennan are planning to leave the 'rest of the party at London in order to re- turn to New York for the first per- formance of their play entitled, Why Students Get Grayfi. Police Answer Riot Call at Rally, Ann Arbor, Mich. June 21, 1952- -A political rally, unauthorized by the police was seing'he1d'f0f the Republican candidate in the guger- national race. The fiery orators, Morton Harris, Thomas Desantis, and Frank Dumais, had so aroused the crowd that a' near riot resulted in which a' number of the stores in that neighborhood were damaged. ' The call to the police wasmade by George Schmezer, proprietor of a bake shop, the show window of which was broken when one of the crowd, 'Donald Ireland, put his foot through it. Mr. Ireland gave his business address as the Roeper Electric and Manufacturing Com- pany, where he is employed as an electrical engineer. A haberdashery next door to the bakeshoppe was also somewhat damaged. Mr. Hab- eggar, the proprietor, told Chief-of Police Pastory that the crowd was in a great fury and that they had carried off all his neckties of that color, McCready Red, lately in- vented by the noted chemist, .lohn Keilen. Mr. Joseph Bick was some- what injured in the rush, but was able to go home after being given first aid by Dr. Massarelli. Unusual Publishing F :rm Organized Pittsburgh, Par June 21, 1952- A new publishing firm has been re- cently organized by three aspiring young men, W. Leroy Buhison, Richard' L. Lewis, and Ralph L. Appel. They propose to publish a two page newspaper for one day. Winners Announced in I nterplanetary Art Exhibit a New York, N. Y.- June 20, 1952. The judging committee for the Inter-planetary Art 'Exhibit, now being held -in the nearly completed Town Hall,-has finally' come to an agreement on the prize winners. The chairwoman of the committee, Miss .lane Bram, -a great lover of art and poetry,-announced that the first prize went to -the promising -young painter, Mr. Joseph Acker- man, for his wonderful work, Still Life in a Fish-pondf' The import- ant part of the prize amounts to one thousand peezozees, Mr. James Gibson, another member repre- senting the city, had the honor of -presenting to Mr: Ackerman, the contract to p-aint a series 'ofmurals on the new hall. Mayor Ralph Volpe had insisted'-that the town 'hall be surrounded with tmuirals, the thought' that it would -be very appropriately but' the public I at large, led by that upstanding fire- former, Miss 'Anne Potts, knowing full well that murals are not what they are cracked up to be, said, iino!7' Councilman - William J... Workman compromised between -the two -demands by 'stipulating that the murals were to be painted on the outside of the building in water colors. Through this plan, both factions will be appeased. The second prize, amounting to five hundred peezozees, waslawarded to Orville Rudolph. This was a great surprise to him, for he is a cartoon- ist by profession, and his picture in oils, f'Study in Transparency, was more or less of an experiment. He will also be employed to assist Mr. Ackerman on the murals. Miss Regina McKeever, Mir. John Gar- row, and Miss Frances Milono all tied for third place. This exhibit coincidental in that the Committee of Awards consisting of Miss Bram, Mr. Gibson, Miss- Bernice Foster, and Mr. Angelo Sacco. - I s 8 ., W . , '. .Q .1 5 . SB 'er' nj .

The members of the eleventh and twelfth cleaning of the corn seemeld to be the big sport of the V grades must surely flnd enjoyment afternoon, for almost every member of the class par' ' ',.- l in dancing, for the attendance tn ticipated at some time or other. I believe our presif fi-N-f 5258: all these dances was exceptionally dent, Sammy Williams, and our vicefpresident, high. The music was rhythmic, peppy, and enjoyed by all. Feature dances such as: K'The Tag Dance, The Leap Year Dance, and the Senior Dance, helped to add to the enjoyment of these school socials. The class members seem to be exceptionally good dancers which is something both boys and girls are thankful for. Of course, it is understood that the SeniorfA's are the best dancers of the four classes. We wish to take this time to thank the social comf mittee who sponsored these dances, for their work and time which they gave for our enjoyment, and we hope we have cooperated with them satisfactorily. , Senior Class Picnic Une: of the most enjoyable times the class has had together was at the June picnic, nineteen hundred and thirty-one. This event took place at Spreading Oak, South Park, and it sure was an ideal spor for at picnic. The exciting game of volleyfball between Dot Rode, Virginia Alm, Selma Conley, Ted Dague, Sue Clark, Eileen and Jean Clancy, and Boots Beinf hauer, was a game that will be remembered by allg and the members of the class who participated in the horse' back riding may still remember how hard they found it to dance in the evening. Of course we ate, and when the sandwiches, pickles, pop, and icefcream, were placed on the table, Bill Cummins, Hode Smoot, Swede Anderson, Bill Redic, Bill Frankel, and Bill Tilbury thought it was time to perform a Thurston Act and made the food disappear in short order. Many members of the class had an enjoyable time in the South Park Pool, and Elinore -Iosephson did some fingerfwaving after the swimming. Tennis was also a prominent sport of the afternoon, and here Dorothy Mutschler showed her ability. By the time the evening dancing was over everyone was ready to welcome a good night's sleep and pleasant dreams. The main comment the next day was, Gosh, after a wonderful picnic like that, you feel that you have been well rewarded for the school work you've done. Frank Hoppman, worked harder than anyone else and we'll give them credit right here and now. We also wish to inform some members of the class that Eileen Clancy was not crying, she was merely peeling onions. Many members of the class became childish and found great sport in swinging each other on the swings, and perhaps it would be better to have the tale about Jean Clancy, Alice Meyers, Edna Dague and Selma Conley and the swings untold. Although this was a cornfroast, corn was not all we had to eat. We also had weiners, buns, coffee, pickles, onions, tomatoes, and marshmallows, What else could we want for fifty cents? There was dancing in the evening, and the class found plenty of fun there. When the dancing was over, everyone was sorry and declared that the day had gone too swiftly. Miss Proudfit, our sponsor, told us not to fret, for there would be another picnic for us before we graduated. Senior Class Prom The seniors picked a wonderful day for their picnie and a wonderful day for their cornfroastg but, oh, what a night they picked for their prom! There was rain, rain, and more rain, but, with a class spirit like our class possesses, what does rain matter? For on the night of January twentyfsecond, nineteen hundred and thirty-two, machine after machine drove up to doors of the Webster Hall Hotel, and girls in beautiful evening gowns and wraps descended from the cars, and were escorted into the hotel by handsom-e young gentlemen. A smile and a hello welcomed everyone as they entered. What a happy crowd and what a perfect right they had to be happy. Can you guess why? Yes, that's right, they were attending the 'Lpromf' Our class colors are green and white, and the girls of the class seemed to take it upon themselves to carry out this color schemeg for green and white were the colors of the evening. We had plenty of peppy music as played by Tech Werran and his boys, and the lighting effects in the Georgian Room seemed to add to the delightful music. We think this was the best prom ever, because of the large attend' ance, and the compliments given to the class. w , 4 , V -Q-Y :aj ,MA-V .fit Emi: J: J W, Q..,,,,f3.,,nng2t-est-g,:.,.s ,. iggpgs. -rv a sifaff ristgg ' 1 2. 3 . -, iiife ffill-fQ.i'g5,.5,,. 1-f-ffai - ' if f T 5 f ' ? 1 h 'w 1 .14-e' ' QQ' j ff 1-3----nu. ---H-wlgl E1......................... ............... .... ............................ .................... ........................... ................ .................... ........................E1 The following are examples of original work done by pupils in the Composition and Modern Poetry classes in English VIII. Story Hour WILIGHT is the one hour of the day to which I look forward with something bordering on expectancy. At that time, little brother pleads for his bedtime story. His big, blue eyes become softly luminous, his little, round mouth querries, Tister, tell a tory, in such a tremulous tone that Tister can not resist. So we curl up in a deep, easy rocker in front of the fire which casts a circle of enchanting light around us, leaving the rest of the room in a sea of shadows. Upon this expanse we launch out in our dream boat to make our daily journey to fairyland. Yes, brother likes fairy stories best, so, while he perches upon the arm of the chair, I weave a tale about goblins and brownies, or about airy little sprites who travel upon the gosf samer wings of moths. Baby's tiny palms stroke my hair while he digs a stubby thumb into my neck each time he particularly approves of some feat of the hero. At times we read poems instead. The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat, Little Boy Blue, and L'The Wind are favorites with him. But soon the little head nods, the tired eyes close, and the weary bodv relaxes. I pick him up, a bundle of chubby arms and legs, and lay him gently in his bed. As I look down upon the sleeping cherub with his tousled head pillow' ed upon one round, dimpled arm and hear the soft breathing, as I see a smile play o'er the baby countenf anc-e, I feel that I have, indeed, been recompensed for any effort I may have put forth during the last delightf ful hour. Euphamia Snowden. I 1 gg Wind Old Mother Wind with her numerous children, the merry little breezes, plays a bigger part in our lives than we realize. Early in the morning, just after the rising of the sun, she sets out on her journey, the des' tination of which is seldom reached before Old Sol takes off his night cap for the second time. As she blows along, she dispatches her children hither and thither on their various errands. She is wise, oh, very wise. She knows just everything you and I are planf ning daily. She realizes how disappointed Jimmy Brown will be if her eldest son, iiMarch Wind, is not on time to sail his beautiful new kite for whichihe has been saving his pennies for a long time. jimmy's mother hopes Mrs. Wind will remember that Monday is wash day and send a cool sweet breeze to dry that big washing. But it is in the winter that Mr. Wind has the time of his life. You have probably had exf periences resulting from his pranks. Not being nearly so sensible or dutiful as his wife, he has the best voice of the two. He howls down the chimneys, shrieks along the alleys, and sets you shivering in your bed, They really have a lovely family with theiexception of a few mischievous youngsters, who seem rather inf corrigible. It's Westy, the frolicking breeze, who takes delight in teasing you. He prances around, tossf ing off your hat and laughing as you chase it into the muddy gutter. Oh, he thinks it's great when your newspaper is scattered the length of Main Street, and he doesn't feel the least regret when he places that important item in such a condition that it will never again be recognized as such. just after Dad has clean' ed up the yard and seated himself on the front veranda to rest his weary bones, Westy, assisted 'by Sister South Wind, rummages in the rubbish box, distributf ing debris about the estate and causing general commof tion abroad. After which, the two culprits slyly slink away ready for their next escapadef Oh, they are a busy family, these Wind folks. Maxry Weismann, Early Rising The hardest task of my life is .getting up early on cold winter mornings. In fact, the alarm clock andI are not even on speaking terms anymore because of it. It never fails, that just when I want most to sleep,I must get up and venture forth into the cold and dreary world. In other words, I must hurry to school. There's one thing I like most about Saturday morningsg I can sleep peacefully on and on and the alarm clock cannot utter a sound of protest. Really, this feud be' tween the alarm clock and me waxes hotter every day. The idea of a mere piece of machinery ruling my life that way becomes almost unbearable sometimes. It roils me to think that I must jump like a puppet at a sound from it. And the worst part of it is that the persistentthing has absolutely no consideration for my feelings. Be it hot or cold, fair weather or foul, whether the ground is covered with snow or green with tender new grass, it is of no concern to that alarm clock, Every morning at precisely the same time, it emits a rasping, imperative buzz, which I, after a series of yawns and groans, try to squelch with a look of .

This failing, I get up and slam it off, secretly hoping I've broken a spring or something equally essential. But no, I am destined to be forever a slave at its call. It is the bane of my existence and I feel sure that it will be the death of me yet. Life is really sweet, and I feel that I could enjoy it thoroughly if it were not for the agony of getting up early to the tune of a most unmusical alarm clock. Afternoon Tea Four o'clock, our tea time, is the pleasantest hour of the day. The chinaware, the spindlefleg table, and even the blue and white tea pot with fat, rolyfpoly shepherdesses, in languid, goddessflike poses, add to an atmosphere of comfort and ease. My favorite dishes are used for this afternoon tea-the fragile white china saucer with bluebells and blue and yellow butterf flies, the willow ware, and the staid, respectable, white cup and saucer that Bobby uses because they won't break easily. Then, too, there are all sorts of good things to eat: when Awe do not condescend to eat prof saic bread and butter with, perhaps, strawberry jam, we have strudel. Such a perfect blend of citrons, raisins, and nuts, Gloriana, herself, would be delighted to eat! The tea pot grows empty, however, and the yellow tablecloth is sadly littered with crumbs where Bobby sits, propped up by the sixth volume of the Decline and Fall. Then the conversation is but a murmur, the evening begins to creep slowly into the room. Like the magic mirror of Alice, the room seems to be transformed into a fairyland-an Arcadian fairy' land of bland shepherdesses, raisins, and weak tea. jane Bram. M ary Jane Mary jane is the cleanest child I have ever seen. When I look at her, I always think of clean things. I think of foamy silk, freshly-laundered white shirts, a sterilizer, or maybe an Easter Lily, but Mary Jane is really very much alive. Her face is clear and spark' ling as though it were just washed in icy water. The cold has brought a ruddy glow to her cheeks. Her hair is yellow, like butter and her eyes snap' as if she were planning mischief. Mary Jane takes great pride in her dresses. They must always be fresh and crisply starched. She chooses her own colors, pink, blue, green, and yellow are her favorites. Mary jane's play' room is just like her. It has two big windows that let in streams of sunshine, and white woodwork that al' ways glistens. All the toys are in place. The dolls that are over in the corner of the doll house, the little rocking chair by the window, all the dishes in the cup' board, and the blocks in the play box. It is here that Mary jane eats her meals of creamed celery soup, a baked potato, apricots or spinach, mashed carrots, brown bread and butter, and baked custard. Maybe it is because she is so healthy that she looks so clean. I think that sometimes I might pick up a magazine and see Mary Jane smiling at me from an advertisement for Ivory Soap, Cream of Wheat, or Cod Liver Oil. Henry Lelme. Breakfast Hiking A breakfast hike on a cool summer morning serves as an exhilarating daily dozen for me. Getting up at five o'clock is the worst phase of the outing, but soon I begin to enjoy the novelty of seeing the neighborhood in a blissful and foggy state of repose. A sense of un' reality creeps over me, while I instinctively quicken my steps toward the meeting place. What a contrast is this gray, misty street to the one of six or seven hours ago, punctuated as it was then with cheery beams from floor lamps and chandeliers! Cnce out of town, how' ever, the world begins to cast away its gray morning coat, and the rising sun flicks the green leaves of the forest oaks with golden bits of light. The chattering of the birds also testifies that we hikers are not the only claimants to the title of 'Learly risers. A downy woodpecker with his industrious drumming makes himself the most conspicuous of them all. Although the pert tilt of his head with its funny little tuft of feathers and one bright red spot is familiar, it is never- theless keenly suggestive of reproach. What! he seems to exclaim, you are enjoying a stroll through the country while there is work to be done. For shame! But, unfortunately, the work is yet to come. Ravenous appetites cheer the discovery of a small clearing after an hour of steady tramping. Surrounded by tall trees and carpeted with grass still glistening with dew, this delightful retreat is conducive to lazy dayfdreaming rather than to wrestling with stubborn wood nres that refuse to burn. My thoughts of rest- ing, though, are rudely interrupted by the reminder, He who would eat must work, in the regular Cap' tain john Smith manner. The clear, cool water of a nearby spring presents a refreshing contrast to the acrid wood smoke after a trying period of frantic puffs at the stubborn tire. Sweetfsmelling humus and moss, together with cool gray rocks, make one reluctant to hit the homeward trail, and it seems useless to hope that home will be attained beneath that blazing sun and over hot, dustfcovered roads. But our goal is reached at last, and my last thought before snatching a ucatf nap on the front porch swing is that although a break' fast hike inspires and exhilarates, it also creates a feel' ing of laziness, so that it is rather doubtful as to whether that dusting will be done today or not.

Report Day Report day is a grand mixture of hopes and fears, surprises and disappointments for the student. Every emotion comes into play on this day of days. During the first period the student is rather hopeful. There is a subdued hum of talk in this style: If Mary Jones gets a 'C', I ought to get 'B', If Johnny Smith passes, she better pass meg Billy White'll get an 'A', he's just a teacher's pet, If he had that other teacher, he wouldn't get 'A', I'll bet. Then, in somewhat the same manner as the dawn, comes the end of the period. The mistress of our destinies stands at the door and hands out the cards. Alice Brown has a Ah, that old hyena! I'm going to wait and see what she gives to Mary jones. What? She gave you a B ? She'll see me the eighth period! Look at her standing in the doorway smirk' ing! I'll bet she's laughing at all the bad news she just finished handing out! The object of all these scathing and wellfdeserved rebukes is merely busy heaving a sigh of relief. One set of reports gone! She pities that group's second period teacher. How' ever, Miss Second Period is able to take care of herself. She simply hands out the reports and dares us to ref monstrate. Miss Third Period and Mr. Fourth Period get along well enough, too. just a few minor explof sf-ons. But now the lunch period has arrived, and the student councils are about to meet. What'd she give you? A B ? It's more than you're worth. She only gave me a HC. Well, whatlre your marks? Two A's and a C Who gave you the C ? Oh, well, it's just like her. And then she wonders why we don't get on the Honor Roll. Why, you know, blah blah blah-and so far, far into the following periods, including the sixth, when the teachers ask sweetly, 'Who is on the Honor Roll? g and the glorious Opf portunityu period when we go bravely and hopefully forth to have our marks changed and stagger back, thankful that we got the mark we have-who said teachers can't talk? And so home to the slaughter, in which father shakes his head solemnly and says, No college for you, young man, and the elder brothers murmur dark threats of ditchfdigging and such like. At last, we retreat to the safety of our beds, where we give thanks to God that it's all over and nthere won't be another day like this for six whole weeks! Ralph Volpe. Hospitals Convalescence in a foreign hospital was much more pleasant than in an American one. Spending a por' tion of one's vacation in a hospital is not generally inf cluded in one's itinerary, but after only three days in Italy a broken arm caused me to make just such a change in my plans. The journey from the small rural town t.o the city gave me enough time to contemf plate what to expect. Probably a large red building situated in the busy section of the city like the hospital back home in Pittsburgh. It would have a low, dark entrance and pale yellow painted walls with the smell of iodoform and unknown medicines filling the air. The eternal rumble of trucks and street cars mingled with the cry of the huckster or newsboy would be ready to dispel all thoughts of peace and quiet. You would look out of the window and see the buildings of the city or maybe the spirals of smoke left by a def parting train, and that homesick feeling would get the better of you and you would wait impatiently for the night to fall so that you could cry alone and unnoticed. The only hopeful outlook for the next day would be the nurse's cheerful smile and pleasant good morning which would have to last until visiting hours. But what a jolt my thoughts received when we arrived in Turin and the doctor began driving along a paved macadam road winding up the hillside as though lead' ing up to the stronghold above. A large white build' ing more like a villa than a hospital nestled among pine trees. The entrance was low and dark but the walls were painted white and the stone floors looked cool and inviting. There were the same smells of iodoform and medicines but being mingled with the fresh air of the hills made a difference. There were no street cars or trucks rumbling over the streets, but only the occasional hum of a motor driving down the road. The beautiful blue waters of the Po river flow' ing at the foot of the hills separated us from the city below. The view of the city's low even buildings with their church towers rising above the houses could be seen from the window. An old copy of a 1925 L'Saturday Evening Post retrieved from its hiding place by a nun for my entertainment gave more pleaf sure than any expensive novel from an American book shop. What seemed to be a conference of the League of Nations next directed my attention to an animated conversation being held in Broken Italian between a Russian, an Englishman, and a German. It became so intriguing and sounded so different from the or' dinary American conversation that even the fact that the visiting hour had arrived and there were no visitors for me was forgotten. The exhilarating air of the hills had so increased my appetite as to make the usual halffhearted attempt to swallow the hospitals food seem to be a thing of the past. Voices drifted up from the terrace below, as the patients who were able to get about were t-elling stories, mingled with the wind's whispering through the trees, tended to remove from my mind the fact that home was far away and all my plans had turned awry.

Theodore Scliwfeitzer Snowfall The elfins of the snow dropped down A great white blanket on the ground Pure and fresh, a glittering white That flashed like diamonds in the night. Then Goddess Moon gave forth her share By sending down the moonlit stair A shaft of satiny silver blue Which brought an ancient mill to view. The leafless trees stood stiff like guards That watched the quiet town-folks' yards And saw the moon shine o'er the mill When all was dark and softly still. But after night then came the dawn And strange enough the splendor's gone The snow had lost its pearly cast The hills white caps were fading fast. The softening of the sooty snow When morning light began to glow Detracted from night's beauteous blue Dawn's light brought all defects to view. I find the same thing every day In what I do, and think, and say. I like a thing 'til light shines through I'm disillusioned! What can I do? Dorothy Wills. Tents Men may say what they will in praise of their houses, and grow eloquent upon the merits of various styles of architecture, but, for my part, I think that there is nothing to be compared with a tent. It is the most venerable and aristocratic form of habitation. It is exempt from the base tyranny of the plumber, the paper hanger, and the gas man. It is not immovably bound to one dull spot of earth by chains of a cellar and a system of waterfpipes. It has a noble freedom of locomotion. It follows the wishes of its inhabitants, and goes with them, a traveling home, as the spirit moves them to explore the wilderness. At their pleasure new gardens of wild flowers surround it, new plantations of trees overshadow it, and new avenues of, shining water lead to its everfopen door. What the tent lacks in luxury it makes up in liberty. Here the livery of fashion is discarded, the nearest neighbor is miles away, and the dwelling is a veritable Utopia. As I stretch luxuriously on my bed of balsam boughs and dreamily watch the dying camp fire, a sense of peace and contentment steals over me, with which the inhabitants of the finest mansions are seldom blessed. Earl Barnes. Grey Winter Thin reeds quiver as they freeze, Hard winds drive against the trees And hurl soft sprays of snow about Into the air, and in, and out. The wind is quiet, the snow falls still Upon the dim, treefdotted hill. A haze of smoke sails thinly by Across the dark' cloudfladen sky. The crust on the slated housetops moves, The sootfstreaked whiteness slides from the roofsg The grey clots fall with a muffled thudg, They cover the flower beds, and sink in the mud. The fading light grows dull and dim, Great shadows stretch from every limb. The sunless sky is still and clearg Slowly, shades of night appear.

Sportsmanship and team work which marked the playing of our boys in every game account for their fine record. At the end of the series, of Allegheny Voc. Perry Oliver Carrick Langley Allegheny Allegheny Voc twelve games played, nine victories were accorded to South Hills. Our first defeat was administered by Allegheny High School at Phipps Gymnasium. Taking up the thread of victory where it had been broken, the quintet registered an unbroken string of victories unt'l the North Siders were again met. This defeat virtually eliminated the team from the championship race. Later we lost to Perry. This year every game was hard and fast. The scores were generalyy fairly close and many games were dt- cided in the last period, showing the competition was unusually keen. The following received letters for their fine work: Captain Dering, Williams, Cagni, Miller, Fredericks, Crissman, Cullison, Borelli, Moore, Curry, and Manf ager Frank Moore. Kopp, Beinhauer, and Byrne served in the capacity of substitutes late in the season. Here are the league game results: South Hills 30 Oliver 27 34 Carrick 24 30' Langley 25 24 Allegheny 3 'I 1 2 Perry 4 1 Baseball Spring is here, and once again the young man's thoughts turn to baseball. This year our team is as strong as ever, and a good season is expected. So far we have participated in three league games and have emerged victorious in every one. There ref main five games to be play-ed, and if past prformances are to be taken as any indication of the future, our chances of emerging at the top of the Section 1 ladder are great. The nine is composed cf several old players and some promising newcomers. The linefup has been changed several times to discover the ability of the men in different positions. The players and their positions at this time are as follows: Lentz, pitcherg Merana and Baker, catchers, Earl Miller, first base, Cagni, second baseg Fagan, third baseg Ed. Miller, short stopg Schmidt, Muir, and MacDonald, righe field, Fagan, middle fieldg and Phillips. left iield. BASEBALL TEAM This year our chances for the city championship are bright and we all hope that another trophy shall soon be resting in our case. Track The call, this season, for track and Held men was answered by a large and enthusiastic group. Since that time freakish weather has interfered with practice but now the boys are down to strenuous work getting in trim for the coming season. To date two meets have been run off, the first result' ing in defeat at the hands of Westinghouse, the second a victory over South High. Despite the fact that there are few veterans left, this year, the team, under the veteran captain, Albert Bruf bach, looks forward with high hopes to the Snals June 12. The enthusiasm of the squad is most gratifying to Coach Cuddeback.

BOYS, SWIMMING TEAM Boys' Swimming Displaying the skill and speed, characteristic of South Hills swimming teams, our aggregation made a fine showing again this year. After making a fine record in interfschool competition, two representatives of our school participated in the finals. These were held at Connelley Trade School March 15. Captain Thumpston and Locke both placed in their events. Thumpston won first place in the breastfstroke and second in diving, Locke finished second in the 220 yd. free style. Both boys received medals for their achievements. Cur school has tied with Carrick for third place. The team will lose many veterans by graduation. The loss of Locke and Thumpston will be keenly felt. There are several promising m-en, however, who can be counted upon to fill the empty positions. Captain Thumpston is es' pecially Q3 be congratulated upon his fine showing. For three years he has shown out' standing ability, and has merit' ed the many awards he has won. The following are the reguf lar team members: john Cunf ninfvham, Robert Cunningham, Fred Habegar, Captain Fred Thumpston, Jack Smith, Mau' rice Mezzioli, Roger Hopkins, Richard Dixon, Earl Beinf heimer, Adam Lippert, Thos. Locke, Thomas Grady, and All the members have scored sufficient points and will be awarded the school HS. Girls' Volleyball Keen competition was pres' ent in the girls' interfclass and intrafclass volleyball. This year the games were well organized and the competition between twenty teams, each under the leadership of its captain, moved along smoothly to an exciting finish. i L ' ' The championship game was played between Rehm's team, the victors in the tenth and eleventh grades, and Billingsf ley's team, the winner from the juniors and seniors. The teams were well matched but the girls from Bilf lingsley's team showed more skill and better organizaf tion. As a reward for their excellent work, the Leaders' Club presented a trophy to Billfngsley's team consisting of: M. Billingsley QCaptainj, R. Pietsch, A. Potts, M. Maxwell, Z. Laucik, E. Welch, M. Praegf ner, I. Tracy, J. Sella, M. Perry, and E. Ambler. Girls' Swimming The shriek of the whistle! A splash! Theyre off! Thus the girls, swimming meet began on April 28. This is the outstanding event in the spring swimming program for the girls. It was a close race from start to finish with the twelfth, tenth, and ninth grades GIRLS' VOLLEYBALL S.

The score of points was as followszftwelfth grade, fifteen points, tenth grade, fourteen pointsg ninth grade, thirteen points, and eleventh grade, eight points. Sarah Callin, Betty Limbach and Leah Strong placed in five or more events. Girls' Track Warm weather is here again and the field is dotted every night after school, by the blue suited members of the girls' track team. These girls are training for the interfschool meet. Those who place in this meet will represent the school in the sectional meet, May 26, and in the city meet, June 2. The team has a lot of new girls as well as those who participated last year. Zdenka Laucik, Grace Haugh, Margaret Billingsley, and Ruth Pietsch are probably those who will qualify to take part from the seniors, and Helen Wright, Edna Windfrey, Jean Wilson, Lois Reed, M. Feich and many others have an opportunity to make themselves outstanding from the lower grades. As yet the interfschool meet has not been held but excellent work is being done in practice in running, broadfjump, and basketball and baseball throw. We feel sure that South Hills girls will uphold their high record in the city this year just as they have done in previous years. Boys' Tennis The tennis program for the school, this year, is an intrafmural elimination series to be played off in the near future. So far thirtyfthree racquetteers have signed up for the series, twentyfthree in the senior division and ten in the junior division. The winners, runners up, and second runners up will receive gold, silver, and bronze medals respective! ly. Letters and modified letters will also be awarded to outstanding players. The winner and runner up will be privileged to par' ticipate in the city championships later in the season. Girls' Tennis Girls are becoming more and more interested in tennis every year. This season there were over a hundred girls signed up for participation in the tennis competition but after the tryfouts, all but twentyffive of these were eliminated. The interfclass doubles tournament is to be played first, and the outstanding girls in these matches will enter the intrafclass singles tourney. The two winners in this tournament will represent the school in the intra-school competition. Among those who have proved successful in pref vious years and who will probably be outstanding this year are: Edna Tomlinson, Dorothy Mutschler, and Sue Clark. Boys' Volleyball A group composed of players from the various home rooms constituted the varsity volleyball team under Coach Carson. An intrafmural competition was held, and after many exciting games, Room 430 was on the top with Room 263 as runner up. Instead of the regular interfschool schedule, the team participated in a two days' elimination series with the other city schools. Although our boys lost early in the playfoffs, two of them, Captain Dering and Frank Hoppman gained sufficient number of points to merit letters. Modified letters were awarded to the other team members: Dewire, Parfitt, Soloman, Fredricks, Gibson, Vlfilliams, Smith, Beinhauer, and Nelson. - -..-..l,,,.

Big Sister Club The Big Sister Club, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Pritchf ard, has enjoyed some interest- ing and varied programs this semester. The outstanding event was the Big and Little Sister party which was presented in the auditorium to welcome all new girls to the school. The participants of this prof gram entertained an enthusiastic audience with various. dances, recitations, and some unusual musical numbers. The girls have endeavored to do their bit in the Cleanf up Campaign by bringing old clothes to school and getting them in a presentable condition. The other programs have consisted of short plays, stories, and some interesting talks by Mrs. Pritchard. The purpose of the club is to place each new girl under the care and guidance of a Big Sister, who ac' quaints her with the ,fundamentals of high school life. Under the influence of the, Big Sister, the Little Sister is able to attain higher ideals in scholarship and charf acter and to enable her to surmount the difficulties which confront her.

This semester, the Math Club has studied an Egypf tian papyrus, which is the oldest arithmetic of which man has record. The comparison of the Egyptian and modern systems of procedure has heen very enlighten' ing and interesting. The cluh visited the Chservatory May 9, where we heard an interesting astronomical lecture hy Professor Ludwig, and saw the large telescope and its mechanism. A picnic will be held June 3, at Mount Lehanon Park, and a social meeting will he held june 13. A very successful semester has been enjoyed under the sponsorship of Mr. McCready, and the leadership of George Wheeler, Presidentg Margot Sisk, Vice President: and Elma Ambler, Secretary' Treasurer. , Los Castellanos Club Los Castellanos, sponsored hy Mr. Maffeo, meets in Room 304 every other Thursday. This semester there were no officers elected. Each week a committee was appointed to prepare a program, and the chairman of this committee was the presiding officer for that particular week. This gave more students a chance to use their Spanish in conducting a' meeting. , The purpose of this club is to give a better under' standing of the customs, dances and songs in Spain, as well as the use of the language, for all the meetings are conducted in Spanish. This creates the necessary atmosf phere for the study of the tongue. This club is open to students taking Spanish II, III, and IV. The main objectives of the cluh are to create an inf ternational viewpoint and to learn of the customs and character of the foreign people. The club is very popular. This semester the programs were in the hands of eight different committees, and each program seemed to surpass the previous one. Under the guidance of Mr. Maffeo it has proven to he one of the most popular in our school. GERMAN CLUB V 1' LOS CASTELANOS Der Deutsche Verein Der Deutsche Vereinu is one of the most active clubs of our school. The programs are interesting and lively. We sing and dance and play games. Vv'e have devoted one program cf this semester to the Goethe Centennial, and another to the present political situation of Germany. Several smaller plays were presented by our members. Cccasionally there were theater parties to the Cinema Theater where German talkies are presented. As a pleasant climax to our activities, came the pic' nic on june 7 in South Park. ' The club was most ably directed by: President, Henry Lehneg Vice President, John Beitzelg Secretary' Treasurer, Carl Fischer. As head of the Program Committee, John Beitzcl performed his duties in a loyal and thorough manner. Los E studiantis Los Estudiantes is the Senior Spanish Cluh. lt was organized by Miss Potter in order that those students who were taking advanced Spanish might he able to do work which is not included in the regular program of study. lviembership in this club is limited to those who excell in class work. The club meets every Thurs' day during the special period. During the semester just past, the members of Los Estudiantes have translated a short novel, El Capitan Venenof' written by Pedro Antonio de Alarcon.

Le Cercle Francais Cne club which enjoys a wide popularity is Le Cercle Francais. It is rather an exclusive organization in :hat only pupils that have reached the French IV class are eligible, also, any pupils that have continued their work in French study. The object of this club is to become acquainted with the French parliam:ntary procedure, and to feel at ease in the ordinary use cf the French language. For a long time it has been the tradition of the French Club to have very original programs. This club had to hold on to its laurels, and did so by elect' ing a Chairman of Activities, namely, Margaret Stobie, who selected her own committee of eight members. This committee worked diligently in trying to enter' tain and instruct the club, and it accomplished its taskf One of the most successful of all programs was given on April Fool's Day or Poisson d'Avril. The day be' fore the meeting the sponsor announced a written test to be given the following day, this frightened everyone because it was so unexpected. After the pupils had entered class the next day, paper was distributed that looked suspiciously like a question sheet. This was followed by another sheet of paper, which, of course, was understood to be used for the answers. The sfuf dents were told when to turn over their question sheets, and upon doing so, they found a picture of a poor fish. This prank started the program off in the right spirit, and opened the way for the unusual and pleasant games which followed. This program is just a sample of the many that were given this semester under the direction of the program committee and the ready assistance of the sponsor. The Virgil Club The Virgil Club, this semester, has taken many trips into the lands of the Ancient World. Won't you come with us and see they places and things which we have seen? We are riding over the Appian Wayg as we stop to examine its construction we are ama::d at the mar' velous engineering feat. Alternate layers of crushed' rock and broken stone mixed with concrete upon which the huge pavement blocks are laid results in the formation of a roadbed whose foundations alone averf ages two to three feet deep. What a contrast the Ap' pian XVay makes with the quarter inch metal foundaf tions in present day road buildings 'Lnewest wrinklef, We enter into Rome and here are met ,by Florian Majchrzak who will act as our guide. We are shown the ruins of the Forum, the colosseuin, and the Ros' trum where Cicero made his political speeches. Inf cidentally we stop to visit a small shop where the Roman barber's business is carried on. Helen Kauf explains to us that Roman men were as particular in their appearance as are men of the present day. We are much interested in the residential portion of the ancient city, stopping at a huge mansicn whose wide open courts and flashing fountains without are as beau' tiful as is the interior with its intricately carved marble statues and minute mosaics. We are met by Euphef mia Snowdon who escorts us to the dining hall. Ref clining on our dining couches, we are served with pea' cock's tongues and many rare species of fish as well as with delicate fruits and various pleasing concoctions. As we finish dining, a messenger enters bearing a letter for one of our party. Because she knows that we are unfamiliar with Roman correspondence, jean Shall' cross familiarizes us with the instruments, materials, and manner of writing, and Helen Heinrich tells us '- T ,,....,.,-,V ,, , .V.. .Wav ...,.v,,.,-av.,.t..-,..i.,-r.-.- v.

Having completed our tour of the ancient city, we are now interested in that section of Rome containing St, Peter's cathedral, the new Vatican City, and the other beautiful buildings and monuments cf the later city. We wonder what influence these two thousand years of life in Rome has had on our life. today. We are surprised to find that besides literature and architecf tural models, the Ancient World has contributed to us theories of law and government, beautiful mythof logical tales, and, what is most important, a foundation on which many of our present day languages have been erectedg Truly Roman civilization has conf tributed much to the advancement of our present civilization. Those directing the Virgil Club through this semesf ter's activities were Helen Kauf, President, Regina McKeever, Vice President, Anna Park-er, Secretary' Treasurer, Florian Majchrzak, Reporter. Membership included Jean Shallcross, Regina McKeever, Euphemia Snowdon, HeleniHeinrich,, and Carl Fischer. Miss Schmitz is sponsor. The Girlweserves The Girl Reserves is a club in which, by wholesome fellowship together, girls find strength to strive tof ward a purer life. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Pritchard and has as its officers, President, Fern Gates, Vice President, Jean Root, Secretary, Margaret Gottfried, Treasurer, Mary Louise Wheeler. R The programs include open discussion, song services, ceremonies, hand work, and social times. Because of the cooperation of every member this semester, the club has increased its membership, its treasury, and its social good times. This same cooperaeive spirit showed itself in the candy sale at the Senior Class play and also in the annual Mother and daughter tea which was the best ever. V The club looks forward to future successes in the coming semester. Camera Club The Camera Club, a new organization in the school, has aqthreeffold purpose-to teach students to develop and print pictures, to arouse their interest in the diff ferent fields of photography, and to associate them with the Camera organizations in the city. Its membership is limited to twelve members each semester, and it is sponsored by Mr, Overcash. The officers of the club are William Plarker, President, Evelyn Ruppel, Vice Presidentg and Marion Winge, SecretaryfTreasurer. Each semester the club plans to visit a local Camera organization. This spring a trip was made to the Inf ternational Camera Salon at Carnegie Institute. Perhaps the greatest accomplishment this year was the purchasing of an enlargement machine from the funds made by selling pictures of the basketball, footf ball, and swimming teams. , The Seriioz' Hi-Y Club e Senior-HifY Club has based its programs upon the general subject of perf sonal improvement. However, other interests! have not been excluded or neglected. The M. U. F. cam' paign was devoted largely to the campaign to raise ten dollars for Y.M.C.A. work in foreign countries gave the club members an interest in World Brotherhood. self fimprovement, but The club was addressed by four outside speakers. Mr. W. C. Bachellor presented the subject of M.U,F.! Mr. Howard Roeper gave an instructive talk on Telef visiong Mr. W. A. Burton explained how the Y.M.C.A. relates the boys' interests of one nation with those of other nations, and Mr. Nichols, director of Camp KonfOfKwee, told of the virtues of camp life. The club has spent a profitable sem-ester. An inf vitation to join next fall is extended to any boy who is interested in selffimprovement. ?'1g?-zfsf.'.- -r 54' l, . if.5E5g12 i-Q 4 o . 5 Q, . gif, l'1..l 1'-aft: , Er' ' s, D .I Q n 4 9 9 n o o n gn .r , lv 1 1. 1 rg.. -1...' ,:-v-..-.1-nf-H: s' 5 Y .,.

And the original plots which accom' panied this familar dialogue were both serious and amusing, good and bad. No sooner were these over, when we started on our forty speeches. Did you ever try enacting a scene from some such play as Wings Over Europe, taking the parts of three characters, and trying to distinguish each character simply by a turn cf the head and a change in voice? Hm! You t'cn't know what you're missing. Try it! Then came the class play. Through the combined efforts and hard work of our inspirational director, CLASS PLAY COMMITTEE Miss Price, the cast, the committees, and, Ye good old stage crew, The Show Off turned out to be a howling success. Here is a short synopsis of the play. Aubrey Piper is the ever egotistical, bragging, lying show off, who, throughout the play, gets out of one mixfup into another. Amy, the adoring and believf ing fiancee and later wife of Aubrey, upholds and ref mains loyal to him regardless of the constant nagging and ridiculing of Ther family, especially Mrs. Fisher. But every man must have his good points, even Auf brey Piper, and it is through him that joe, the ninef teen year old son of Mrs. Fisher, perfects his invention and makes a fortune out of it. ' Uh, well! A happy ending-in more than one way. The play was a success. But this wasn't the only play the class presented. Sketches from plays like Milestones, 'sThe Learned Ladies, 'lady Windemere's Fan, and Bef yond the Horizon were pref s-ented by delected groups of the several classes, in the class rcbm. The final assignment was onefact plays, which were also presented in class, The practice in makingfup and the staging of a play, inf cluded in our course of study, will not, I am sure, be forgot' ,ten in a long time.

F r ederick Habeggar Girls' Glee Club The Girls' Glee Club is a development of the old Chorale Club which has been in existence since 1917. There are several purposes for which this club was founded. -The most important of these is to create an interest in good music. It also strives to create independence in singing and to develop' an ability to read and enjoy part singing. Its members are all of senior high school standing. They meet weekly in Room 401 under the sponsorship of Miss Diethorne. The officers are Rae Buzzerd, Presidentg Betty Lou Gensamer, Vice President, and Frances Goodwin, Secretary. The accompanist is Betty Gensamer. The Art Club President, Catherine Weigel, Vice President, George Schmezerg Secretary, Carolyn Rootg Sponsor, Mr. McAdow. A The Art Club, organized in 1926, was established with the object of promoting an keener interest in art in South Hills. One of the qualifications necessary in order to become a member of this club is that the applicant be an art student. This group renders considerable service to the diff ferent organizations of the school. Some of the stage settings, the drawings in the year book, prom decoraf tions, and similar projects are prepared by the art def partment, This semesters work has included a dis' cussion of choice Japanese prints, of the human figure, and of stained glass windows. Voice Department A very active division of the music department is the voice department under the direction of Miss Dief thorne. Incidentally, many of the students in this department are also in the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs. These people have taken active part in appearing bef fore our junior and senior groups and presenting enter' tainments which have always been of the same high type and degree of excellence. One very interesting program was given by this group at Easter time. It was featured in both junior and senior assemblies the week of March 21. Unfold Ye Portals Everlasting, a rather difficult chorale num' ber was sung by the combined voice classes. This was followed by several solos: The First Easter Morn, a contralto solo by Elva Rossg L'Awake, Arise, a soprano solo by Elva Miller, and, Scherzo in E Minor by Mendelssohn, a piano solo by Betty Lou Gensamerq A quintet composed of Dorothy Brooke, Eileen Clancey, Mary Fox, George Phillips, and Theodore Schweitzer sang List, the Cherubic Host from Gaul's Holy City. The concluding selection again pref sented the combined group who sang Lo, a Voice to Heaven Soundingfl The orchestra contributed two numbers: Spring, Beautiful Spring and an orchestral arrangement of the Hallelujah Chorus from Han' del's Messiah The accompanists were Althea Turnf baugh, J-can Werner, and Betty Lou Gensamer. The setting was pleasantly enhanced by the novel lighting effects arranged by the stage crew: . These people are not only active in rendering such service to the schoolg they have also undertaken out' side work. This semester, as a result of successnachieved in a similar presentation of last semester, a large group of these people met with music students of other high schools in the city, under the leadership of Dr. Will Earhart, superintendent of music in the Pittsburgh public schools. For a period of two months this group made weekly trips to either the North Side Carnegie Music Hall or the Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce Building, to practice for the program which was pref sented May 26. It was held at the East End, Car' negie Music Hall and was attended solely by the parents, friends, and relatives of the participants The program consisted of twelve wellfchosen, difficultly arranged numbers. The following people were chosen to represent South Hills: Frances Rorison, Virginia Beinhauer, Dorothy Brooke, Eileen Clancey, Elva Miller, Mary Fox, Dorothy Wayman, Helen Wendler, Edith Baur, Elva Ross, Mildred Thomas, Jean Werner, Ruth Zimmerman, Margaret Radaker, Mary Mickey, XVilliam Caggiano, Glenn White, Harry Mifflin, Wil' liam Burhenn, Maurice Ziegler, Theodore Schweitzer, Harry Williamsoii, John Clarke, and George Phillips, Our Music Department Hear ye! Hear ye! .of our music department of South Hills. Listen uninformed ones, we hope to enlighten you as to all that you do not know about the music department. The concert orchestra or Or' chestra C is the cream of the crop, The personnel of this group consists of about thirtyfone members ranging from Sophomorcs to Post Grads. Each mem' ber is carefully selected from the primary groups be' cause of his recognized ability not only to play his chosen instrument, but also of his ability to conduct himself like a musician. After a player attains the coveted position he must become accustomed to the regulations of the organization. He is able to do this
