This building, which is to cost S221,000, will be constructed on a lot purchased for this purpose by the School Board some time ago. It will supply the adequate and modern fa- cilities for education, of which South Williamsport has so long stood in need. THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL The plans call for a twenty-room building in which will be class rooms, recitation rooms, and special rooms. As it is to be a Junior-Senior High School, it will house the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades-the Junior division-on the first floor, and the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades- the Senior division-on the second floor. One advantage the new High School will have over the old is its Vocational course. There will be a room--a gen- THE OLD HIGH eral shop--for that. There will be a, library, a gymnasium for sports and an auditorium for lectures, plays, and the like. Above all there will be a cafeteria, which will indeed be a boon to the pupils from the ends of the borough who now bring their lunches. The building promises to be a beau- tiful as well as useful one, and the classes which have the pleasure of graduating from it will find it to bear comparison easily with other modern high-schools. THE OLD HIGH SCHOOL Our present high school was erected in 1883, but even at that early day, it was found insufficient to meet the growing demands of our progressive borough. So in 1905 an addition was made in the rear, which suiiiced for the time. Since then, however, it has. been remodeled and annexed to, until it little resembeles its former con- tours. In 1926 the present annex was built but even at the time it could not. meet the demands, with every avail- able inch of space utilized. In spite' of the cramped conditions, however, the educational work has been admin- istered to great advantage and the standard of education has not been lowered.

OUR BASKET BALL TEAM 4 TRA CK MEET RFSULTS The 1Annual Lycoming llounty In- terscholastic track and field meet held at Montgomery on Wednesday, May 8, was not a brilliant success as far as S. W. H. S. was concerned. Muncy carried off the honors with a total of 59 points, while South ,High placed third with 27 points. However the borough gleamed a scrap of comfort in the fact that the grammar school carried away all honors in the elemen- tary competition-Southern Avenue taking first place and Mountain Aven- ue, second.

The baseball for the girls started tlcolxer 2, 1928. The teams were Well organized and well represented by the classes' best material. After all schedules had been played, the victory went to the Junior girls under the t'aptainship of Rosanna Shireman. But the cold weather set in and baseball season gave place to Class Basket Ball. The girls played many exciting games and anticipated play- ing a preliminary at one of the big games. Such was not their luck how- ever, although it is hoped that next year the girls will have a Varsity and one to be proud of. The Senior girls held iirst place up to November 27, when the Sophomore girls carried off the honors under the leadership of Maxine Koch. The second basketball season was started in February. It looked quite exciting when all teams were working in perfect unison. They completed a successful Basket Ball season, and the .KN .-XI'l'RlCtTl.X'l'l0N The Community House has now been in use about two years and in that time any number of activities, including basketball games, Associa- lioii suppers, parties and plays have !.cen held there. The tkimmunity House was wanted originally as a home floor for basket- ball. liecause ol' this, there w'as at tirst some doubt expressed as to the value ol' the building in any other way. liowever, time has shown that this structure has become invaluable to the community at large and to the high school in particular. The kitchens are employed in pre- paring food t'or suppers and banquets, and refreshments for parties and dances ol' all kinds. The first floor is used often for gymnasium work and there the tables are set for the ban- quets and suppers. The second floor when cleared is used for basketball games, parties given by the school and other organiz- ations, and dances. The addition of folding chairs makes it an auditorium - 4- me fa -0 Sophomore girls again came out vic- torious in this second season under the leadership of Maxine Koch. After this schedule had been com- pleted the girls were ready to take up volley ball and track. This year's track team contained niany of last year's stars, and so was expected to be quite successful. There were nine- teen girls on the track team that was entered at Montgomery on Play Day. BOYS, A'1'u1,.E'11'1cs Boys' Athletics started in Old High with' a very interesting indoor base- ball league composed of inter-class teams. The first schedule continued from Sept. 17 to Oct. 24. The Seniors won the championship easily, beating down all opposition. The indoor sea- son was followed by the organization of inter-class basketball teams. These teams proved very valuable to Coach Schumacher for it showed up some promising material for the varsity. The coach called for the first varsity basketball practice on November 19. This first practice was very successful and 40 men reported to try out. Later on the squad was cut down to 20 men who were then caried throughout the entire season. The varsity was very proud to receive 11ew black sweat suits, in which the players made a very fine appearance. The basketball squad carried od the Iirst victory on an undefeated league record by defeating Watsontown, and ended the season by defeating its old rival, Picture Rocks. This victory made them the undisputed champions of the West Branch Basketball League. Following the basketball season the Spring indoor interclass baseball schedule was started. The Juniors are riding tie with the S-eniors for the Spring championship. The track team which carried away third place at the County Meet should be commended. After the loss of most of last year's team new material was discovered and whipped into shape, so that South Williamsport High School has a real squad of nine- teen men. seating approximately one thousand people. Here lectures have been giv- en, class exercises such as Class Day and Commencement held, and school and class plays presented. On the whole it is rather hard to imagine putting across any of these activities without the convenient Community House, so indispensable has it become. Those citizens who were instrumental in making this building a possibility have the deep gratitude of the citizens and particu- larly of the stiudents of the High School. To them the Community House has opened new vistas of activ- ity and has won their earnest appreci- ation. S BLUE AND' WHITE HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA I ' - THE HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA The high school orchestra this year was under the direction of Mr. Gordon Breary, the organist of Trinity Church. It was somewhat smaller THE GLEE CLUB The Glee Club has just finished another successful yea1'. Every Tues- day morning ati48 o'clock they could be heard practicing under the direc- tion of Mrs. O. R. Howard Thompson. The membership at the present time is about forty-five students. Many have dropped out and others have stepped in to take their places. The officers elected at the end of last year were: Ralph Pearson, Presi- dent: Pauline Dinan, Secretaryg Lou- ise Ludwig and Donald Drumm, Li- brarians. They have filled their posi- tions very satisfactorily. During the past term the Glee Club sang several times. They made their first appearance before the- school in assembly. They added .nuch to the High School Follies. During Music Week they offered several selections at the Southern and Mountain Avenue Buildings. On Wednesday evening, May 15, they sang at the High School. This ended the program for this term. We hope that this organization will continue to grow as it has during the last few years and have another suc- cessful term next year. than its forerunner of the year before, but it is expected that next year will be a banner year for this musical organization at Old High: Its size will probably be increased next year by the addition of Freshmen with musical propensities, and its quality will be high because of the 'fact that this was a practice rather than a per- formance year. The custom for the orchestra to pTay eVeryFriday morning in Assem- bly and between the acts of the vari- ous school plays was dropped this ycar, owingito the constant change in organization. However, the usual one- hour practice period was observed Friday morning from 8:00 to 9:00, until a larger attendance was secured by transferring the hour to Wednes- day afternoon. The officers of the orchestra for this year were: John Tietbohl, 'Presidentg Wilhelmina Lammerhirt, Vice-President, Lewis Miller, Treasur- erg Kennet-h Webb and Gwendolyn Mead, Librarians. The membership of the orchestra was reduced from fif- teenfto thirteen on the later resigna- tions of the President and Vice-Presi- dent. In the orchestra there were six violins, five saxophones, one clarinet, one cornet, one trumpet, and one trombone. Josephine Coder, '31, is the pianist. s i 1 1' .,,, 1. ' GLEE CLUB Charles C.

BLUE AND WHITE 1 f - - - o THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council was organized in 1927 for the purpose of acting as an advisory' council for the extra- curricular activities of the high School. As yet, however, it has not played a very great part in the school life. The council is composed of the leaders in the various classes, clubs, and activities in the school. The most important function of the council was in its attempt to recon- struct the school orchestra. Through their efforts the orchestra was kept in existence. The members of the council include the following: Mary Louise Reed, Commercial Clubg John Tietbohl, Or- chestra, Grace Donnell, O. C. O. T. Clubg Sara Sfeamon, Literary Club, June Foresman, Blue and White: John M. Hand, Blue and Whiteg Mary Clark, French and Latin Club, Ralph Pearson, Hi-Y Club, Eugene Pfirman, Junior Classg Norman Wilkinson, Sophomore Class, Lucille Lavo, T. A. W. Club, Kenneth Webb, Boys' Wel- fare Club, Josephine Ball, Art Clubg Harold Bair, Freshman Class. These students represent quite varied lines of endeavor, and are well fitted to comprise the student coun- cil. THE FRESHMAN CLASS THE FRESHMAN CLASS Eighty-one pupils entered the Freshman Class last September. Since then fourteen pupils have dropped out and Rhea Haggy, Mar- garet Frei, and Mac Worthington have entered the class. The present enrollment is seventy. At the begining of the term the class elected the following officers: President, Harold Bairg Vice-Presi- dent, Eleanor Plirmang Secretary, -Harriet Rommelt 5 Treasurer, Eleanore Wolf . The Freshman class held a Weiner roast at Death Valley and a Hal- lowe'en party in the Community House in the fall. All the members of the class who were present enjoyed them very much. The Freshman girls had a very good baseball team. They won all the games they played but two. The boys too had good baseball and basketball teams. Three of the Freshman boys made the Junior Varsity this year. They are Robert Tinsman, Malcolm Crandall, and Laird Elmaker. The Freshmen received their class pins in February. The Freshman Class took part in an oratorical contesvt sponsored by Chautauqua. The subjects for the orations were: Our Country's Flag , Wars Should Cease , The New South , and The Constitutional Con- ventionv. Eleanor Pfirman won the first prize and Hester Gottshall second. Several pupils of the class presen- ted the play All On a Summer's Day in the Follies. The pupils who took part in it are: Ethel Broeker, Eleanore Wolf, Eleanor Pfirman, Ruth DeFrain, Dorothy Forse, Mary Fisher, Ned Elder, Harold Bair, Carl Hall, and Earl DeWitt. A group of Freshman girls also participated in the Firefiy Girls given in the Community House. The girls in the minstrel group were Eleanore Wolf, Ruth DeFrain and Mary Fisher. Ethel Broeker, Eleanor Pfirman, Hester Gottshall, Ruth San- ders, Dorothy Forse, Marjorie Baiers, Marion Confer, Alice Moffet, Mar- garet Young, and Virginia McGinniss were in the Patriotic Pantomime. BLUE AND WHITE 11 1 HE V :I I THE SOPHOMORE CLASS At the beginning of the 1928-29 term there were sixty-seven Sopho- mores enrolled, but now the class has been reduced by sixteen students, leaving a total of fifty-one. At the first class meeting of the Sophomore Class the following officers were elected: President-Norman Wilkinson Vice-President-Francis King Secretary-Ruth Tietbohl Treasurer-John Bush They also selected Green and White to be the class colors. The class received 355.00 for getting 100'1 membership in the Parent- Teachr Association drive in the early part of the term. We had a weiner roast at Sulphur Springs at the beginning of the term and a skating party on January 29, 1929. Both were enjoyed very much by those who attended. In the fall each class organized a girls' and boys' basketball team and selected captains for the various teams. Maxine Koch was chosen cap- tainufor the Sophomore girls' team THE JUNIOR CLASS The Junior Class was very active this year. The term opened with the first class meeting in which the fol- lowing officers were elected: Presi- dent, Eugene Pfirmang Vice-Presi- dent, Dunbar Whitehead, Secretary, Violet Hamm: Treasurer, Lewis Miller. The Junior Class was the first class to gain 10014. in both the Parent-- Teacher Association membership drive and the Athletic Association drive. They had two successful parties- one a Hallowe'en Party and the other a Junior-Senior Prom, held in honor of the Seniors. Both went over big. This year the Junior girls played an important part in athletics, having won first place in basketball over the other class teams. Five Junior boys were Varsity men and ithe Junior Boys' class team seems to have been quite successful. . , and Norman Wilkinson for the Sopho- more boys' team. The Sophomore Class presented a play in the High School Follies, en- titled, Uncle Dick's Mistake . Those who participated in the play were: Robert Bostley, Josephine Coder, Ralph Weiss, Ruth Tietbohl, and Karl Mattil. It was very much enjoyed by the spectators. The Sophomore Class also held a Flag contest in which every Sopho- more participated. Each one was to answer seventy-five questions and and write an essay on Old Clory's Greatest Glory. The winners were Iva Ziefle for the girls and John Bush for the boys. The Junior class rings were ordered from the L. G. Balfour Company and all were Very much pleased with them. The Junior act in the High School Follies was a humorous dialogue, The First Quarrel , presented by Betty Dunlap and Bailey Russell. The Juniors were well represented in the orchestra, Glee Club and various other school activities. The last Junior function will be the banquet which will be held after the Junior play, Who Wouldn't Be Crazy ? 12 ' BLUE AND WHITE Paul Ault Jock Oh! is that all? Oh! what a quiet boy!

CLASS HISTORY The Freshman Class of 1925-26 took their places at S. W. H. S. ready to begin their four year career at Old High with an enrollment of 72. The first thing of interest to the Freshmen was the High School Hal- lowe'en Party, October 24, sponsored by the Parent-Teachers Association. A Valentine Party was planned for February 14. Plans and arrange- ments were very encouraging but the party was never held. The Sophomore year again found us in the old Freshman room with a membership of 57. On the evening of October 24, the cake of custom was broken when our first. class function took place. It was a Hallowe'en Party held at Mane- yal's barn. A week late we enjoyed another Hallowe'en Party given to the student body by the Parent-Teachesr Associa- tion. Forty-three students responded to the roll-call at the beginning of our third year at High. Our first social function in our Junior year was another Hallowe'en Party which was held at the Commun- ity House. This was followed the nxet week by a School Hallowe'en Party sponsored by the Parent- Teachers Association. A Junior-Senior Christmas Party was held at the Community House on December 29. The Senior Class returned to Old High with a total of 35, but during the first half of the term we lost three members, leaving a total of 32. Our first Senior Class function was a 'wiener roast held at Sulphur Springs. This was followed in a few weeks by another one at Mosquito Valley. Our next social activity was in the form of a skating party held at Lup- pert,s pond. ' The Juniors showed their affection for the Seniors by inviting them to a Prom held at the Community House. Now the Seniors are preparing for Graduation. , , . THE BUSH 81 BULL CO. Department Store for 'iflfwz-licrlzzlisv llmt SlIfiS.66S,, including the-se and other lines Houscfurnisliings Linens .
