TI1e'I937 SPCKESMAN Volume Five PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS of Strong Vincent High ScI1ooI ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA CONTENT S .... SERVICE YOUTH SERVICE MIND SERVICE PRACTICE SERVICE BODY SERVICE SCHOOL SERVICE PUBLIC F l GUI' BBFIDCI' Two years ago the June Senior Class of Nineteen-hundred- thirty-five of Strong Vincent High presented the school with a gift that remained unseen and scarcely appreciated, until it was displayed at the football game with East High School in the fall of the next year. The gift was a Strong Vincent Banneraa flag which embodies the courage, the vigor and the loyalty of the athletes and the students of our school. We pay just tribute to Jack McAllister for creating the design, as Well as to William Saint and Stanley English for as- sisting in executing the details. J ack's design was chosen from those of seventy-five students, who had entered a contest sponsored by a faculty-student committee and judged by the Art Department of our School. We are grateful to the Class of Nineteen-l1undred- thirty-five for this lovely emblem, and we caution future students of Strong Vincent to protect it from scholastic and athletic defeat. Dedication This book is respectfully dedicated to one who has served the public schools of Erie faithfully and energetically for many yearsg to one whose patience has helped to form the foundation of this schoolg to one whose unfailing courage has undoubtedly moulded the lives of many men and women in the far corners of our cityg to one without whose perserverance the ideals of Strong Vincent High School would remain insecure and doubtfulg to one without whose ability and devotion the function of the school would have failed entirely. This book is respectfully dedicated to one we all sincerely admire, yet hold in wholesome fear-Miss Schabacker. We greatly regret the sad news that this may be her last year of service. Some thing very dear and precious will be gone from school life when her slight figure will no longer be seen hurrying through the corridors, in the fulfillment of her various duties, or waiting in the office to adjust our difficulties. We hope the affectionate dedication of the 1937 Spokes- man will recall the faithful and successful service she has always performed for us with rare efficiency and energy. We extend to her our deep appreciation and best wishes for an enjoyable life free from school cares and annoyances. Cur Building e Main Entrance X S C IW! 1 I X f ' ,f -.

Ordering school affairs is the work of the administrative department. Were it not for this group the business of school would not progress very systematically. School duties are distributed among the four divisions of the administrative staff: the office of the principal, those of the two assistant principals, and that of the secretary. Upon Mr. Coon, our principal, falls the task of arranging courses, so as to avoid conflict in the programs of seventeen hundred students interested variously in academic, com- mercial, vocational, and college preparatory courses, and generally planning and arranging the many functions of the institution. Outlining subjects and advising programs for the individual students devolves on Mr. Anderson, as well as does the financing of the Student Council, of the different classes and the whole athletic program. He also arranges for the various organizations which from time to time journey to different places for scholastic purposes. Attendance of the students and responsibility for their whereabouts during school hours is the work of Miss Schabacker. The office secretaries, Miss Sheehan, Miss Weindorf, and Miss Greiner handle the clerical work, including reports, Bling of records, assignment of lockers, furnishing books and supplies to teachers, individual work of the principal and vice-principals, as well as other minutiae. We feel indebted to the group which directs us so capably and effectively in our daily association with the school. Without the sympathetic assistance which has been so generously rendered by this portion of the school faculty, the large attainments which have so far resulted would have been impossible.

Qofgfjgl Nothing reflects as much credit on an individual as his command of English. ln the Junior High department Miss Allen and Miss Lutje teach correct usage, self expression, vocabulary-building gram- mar, punctuation, capitalization, and composition including narration, letter writing, oral and written reports. Wide reading of worthwhile literature increases the student's vocabulary: learning the meaning and use of new words gives him power of expression. Spelling, although a requsite of each separate study, is constantly emphasized in all English classes. The Senior High advances and supplements the work of the Junior High in the classes of Miss Connell, Miss Wright, Miss Hirt, Miss Hearn, Miss Thomas, Miss Barringer, Miss Bennett, Mr. Dean and Mr. Wallach. Mechanics of English, as a means to better oral and written expression, receive daily attention. To creative Work are added description, exposition, argument, poetry and the short story. Supplementary reading from a comprehensive list continues. The types of literature studied include poetry, the drama, the novel, the essay, the short story, the oration together with American and ,English literature. Pupils proficient in English participate inclubs, debates, the newspaper, the year book and the com- mencement program. By these intellectual activities is any school rightfully judged. Newer com- mencement programs including ten or twelve graduates demonstrate the ability of youthful orators. In these six years any diligent student of English has learned to read understandinglyg to speak correctly, if not fluentlyg to produce some creative work, and he is qualified to enter any freshman college .Englis course via certification or examination. Nine Foreign Languages Miss Barringer, Miss Kohout, Miss G-albo, Miss Mercer, Miss Bourquin, Miss Evans, Miss E. Connell, Miss W. Wright. wb JS-9.w1,oi U3-Iutfik T Miss Kohout's-German Class. Miss Bourquin's-French Class. The study of foreign languages is both interesting and practical for the high school student. If he elect the academic course he must devote at least two years to a foreign language. Colleges require one or more foreign languages, many still insisting on a minimum of two years of Latin. Our foreign language department is composed of Latin taught by Miss Mercer, Miss Connell and Miss Willard Wrightg of French taught by Miss Bourquin, Miss Evans and Miss Barringerg and of German and Italian taught by Miss Kahout and Miss Galbo, respectively. Many educators favor studying Latin which is a key to English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portugese, and Roumanian before attempting any other foreign tongue. Our reading abounds in foreign phrases and quotations. If one is able to translate these, he experiences a thrill and feels that his struggle with Caesar, Cicero, Vergil or French verbs has not been in vain. For the physician Latin is the language in which he must write his prescriptions which, in turn, may be interpreted by apothecaries the world over. Studying any language for three or four years should enable one to read and to speak that language fairly well. Reading a work in the original is delightful, as much vividness of style may be lost in trans- lation. If one is fortunate enough to travel in a foreign land and is familiar with the language of that country his trip will be pleasanter and more beneficial. Thus our foreign language department offers a comprehensive course for practical and cultural usage. Ten Social Science Miss Peters, Miss McCarthy, Miss Fousl, Miss Quirk, Miss Sourwine, Miss Burger. Miss Evans, Mr. Wallace, Mr. Weible, Mr. Gustafson, Mr. McCarthy, Mr. Pratt. Miss Burger's Ptoomf History. Mr. Gustafson's Boom-P. O. D. As history is a record of the progress of civilization, so modern social sciences are a means helpful in equipping us for adult life. Courses offered in this fieldvinclude United States History, European History, Ancient History, Civics, Problems of Democracy, and Economics-all electives, except United States History, required of each high school student for a year. livery American boy and girl should be vitally interested in Civics and United States History. One of the duties of a real patriot is to under- stand fully his government, its background, its policies, and the operation of these. Problems of Democracy and Economics give us an insight into the question of the day. How many of us leave high school prepared to cope with the problems of the modern financial world? Very few of us are actually aware that the business world exists. Naturally the courses, cannot give the student a complete understanding of these problems, but they do make him conscious of conditions and factors which directly influence his life. To learn how to cope with the problems which face every individual in the social world, and to meet these situations intelligently is another duty of a good American citizen. All history classes trace the origin and the development of our race, the foundation of our country, and the formation and expansion of our government. By striving to develop better American citizens the history classes are rendering a service to the individual, to school, and to countryea service which will always be felt and which can never be repaid. Eleven ' 3.1 Mathematics Miss Turner, Miss Bryce, Miss Van Natta. Miss Cantlon, Mr. Hughes, Miss Carrick. dflflafwlwt Miss Bryce's Room-Algebra. Mr. Hughe's Class-Trigonometry. From the days of the early Egyptians, Mathematics has occupied a very important position in the advancement of civilization. The results obtained by the great mathematical geniuses of early times were the fruits of their own efforts unaided by instructors or books. Individual preparation and study Were necessary for progress. In sharp contract to-day we have well-trained teachers, excellent text books, and adequate illustrative material with which to work. The study of Mathematics throughout the Junior and the Senior High Schools follows the customary order of progression. In the Junior High department Miss Carrick explains the mystery of Practical Arithmetic and Miss Van Natta the intricacies of Elementary Algebra, each being studied for one year. Ordinarily a student who is majoring in Math may be found in one of the class rooms of Miss Cantlon, of Miss Turner, or of Mr. Hughes studying Plane Geometry which is followed by advanced Algebra CAlgebra 3, we sayj and Solid Geometry. Algebra 3, usually taught by Miss Bryce, is a continuation of Elementary Algebra, while in Miss Turner's Solid Geometry class that subject material progresses to the figure of three dimensions. Not only does the Mathematics department offer the higher branches necessary for college entrance- advanced Algebra and Solid Geometry, but Mr. Hughes teaches a class in Trigonometry Whenever there is a demand for that subjest. Boys who expect to enter schools of engineering find this a great advantage. Strong Vincent has a particularly Hne Department of Mathematics were the student whose bend is in this direction may be well prepared. Twelve Science Miss Kane, Mr. Shanor, Mr. Blake, Miss Burke, Mr. Armagost, Mr. Cochrane. Mr. Shanor's-Physics Class. Mr. Blake's-Chemistry Class. Science has been, and will continue to be, the most interesting and revealing of subjects. The natural sciences are the study of the physical world in which we live and of which we should know. The first general knowledge of our physical world is offered in Mr. Weibel's Junior High General Science classes which give brief but comprehensive information on all branches of science. lf the student is scientifically inclined, he studies Biology under Miss Kane, or Mr. Cochrane. The study of plant and animal life is followed in the Senior High by the study of Physical Geography -earth formations, atmospheric conditions, oceans, rivers, and the starry universe. An hour a day is not long enough for the interesting discussions which 'take place in Miss Burkeis or Mr. Shanor's class- room. Seven periods a week are devoted to the study of inorganic Chemistry. The second semester deals with the formation of plant and animal substances, or organic Chemistry. Mr. Armagost and Mr. Blake, each, are instructors in a completely equipped laboratory. Physics also is a seven-period-a-week course. The how, 'fwhyi' and what questions of everyday machanics, work, power, and energy, heat, sound, light, and electricity are answered by actual experiment in the well-equipped Physics laboratory of Mr. Shanor. Pursuit of these courses in the order of sequence given is not essential, although it is generally recom- mended. Any student who wishes to apply himself diligently to his work can receive untold benefits and pleasures from the scientific courses offered in our school. Th irleen Fine Arts Brown. Mr. I3l'UVVI1'flIISlI'llCfll0lI in, Ill,8ff'lUIlClllS. Miss Pearce--A rl Appreciation of art and music characterizes any cultured person. Yincent is particularly fortunate in being able to offer to the student body courses in these two fields. In the Junior High Department, Miss Galinsky teaches both art and music. In the Senior High, Miss Pearce's classes receive a diversified course in art. Here is provided an excellent opportunity for self-expression and the appreciation of beauty. In addition to their regular work art students constantly furnish the school with appropriate posters, banners, place cards and other art work. In connection with music Mr. Brown gives the necessary instrumental and Mr. Grender the vocal instruction. The goal of all music pupils is the Band, the Orchestra, the Boys' Glee Club, the Girls' Chorus, or the A'Capella Choir. The musical organizations serve the school in a large measure. The Band stirs the players on the football field to greater action. The A'Capella Choir and the Orchestra thrill and arouse the emotions of the student body at assembly, or in concert. Boys and girls desirous of cultivating their musical ability find in the Boys' Glee Club and the Girlsf Chorus a pleasant way of learning to understand music and to express themselves. The influence of this training will be felt throughout the entire life of the students. The impressions made at high school age are lasting and influential in character building. New worlds open to him who is able to feel and appreciate beauty in its various forms. Such classes are definite aids to the search for cultural attainment. Fourteen Mr. Grender, Miss Pearce, Miss Calinsky, Mr. 1 Practical Arts Mr. Humphrey, Miss Reinhold, Miss Benson, Mr. Groschke. Miss Reinhold'siCo0king Class. Mr. Groschke-Shop Aside from academic and commercial subjects, four courses which will benefit the student directly are available. Sewing, under Miss Bensonis direction, presents a useful course for girls. Selection, care and repair of clothing together with skill in garment construction are developed. Further objectives are a clothing budget, personal cleanliness and hygiene for each girl. Miss Reinhold offers another important f'Home Economics subject-cooking. Although usually considered a course for girls, a few boys are far-sighted enough to realize the benefits derived from it. Theprinciples of marketing and the value of a food budget are studied. Working in groups of two, the students develop the skill necessary for the preparation of nutritious and attractive meals. The wood-working shop contains the most satisfied classes in school. These boys enroll here because they like to work with their hands. Their reward is the satisfaction of creating a material object, the result of the coordination between mind and body. A spirit of cooperation, a more complete knowledge of tools, of materials and how to apply them, and an accomplishment for leisure time are the more im- portant fruits of this course. Drafting is taught as a language for students to make or read drawings. Here the boys develop skill in handling drawing instruments, and an ability to produce mechanical, sheet-metal, or architectural drawings and tracings. High school drafting may be the preparation for a vocation, or an elementary course for college work. To many students drafting instructed by Mr. Humphrey, is a restful occupation where one can enjoy himself. Fifteen r,,,, Commercial Subjects Miss Shalkham, Miss Warfel, Mr. Wick, Miss Shade, Miss lisler. Mr. Schenck, Miss Quirk, Miss Alllearn, Miss Forsberg, Mr. Hughes. Mr. Schenck's llooma-fliookkeeping. Miss Forsberg's RoomfTypewriiing. A large number of high school students elect the course in business training because they must pro- cure positions immediately upon graduation, and this is the only course which prepares the pupil directly for a definite vocation. This field includes a variety of occupations. For those desiring preparation in secretarial or office work, Miss Forsberg, Miss Warfel, Miss Shalkam, and Miss Esler teach Type-writing and Stenographyg Mr. Wick Commercial Arithmeticg and Miss Schade and Mr. Schenck Bookkeeping. Typing is a two-year course, the first year being devoted to learning the keyboard and acquiring speed, and the second to transcribing notes. In the two-year daily practice in Stenography pupils become proficient in taking dictation and transcribing short hand notes. Two years of Bookkeeping and one of Commercial Arithmetic furnish the student some knowledge of accounting. Half year courses are taught in Business English by Miss Quirk and in Commercial Law by Mr. Schenck. Graduates in commercial work should be successful business men or women. They should leave school with a better understanding of economic laws. Business training prepares students not only for efficient participation in productive activities, but also trains them to save money and invest wisely. Through business training students are given a desire and the ability to cooperate with others in both economic and civil activities. In pre-depression years positions were readily procured for a large number of graduates in this depart- ment. Business education not only supplies training for initial employment but also for the subsequent readjustment. Sixteen Physical Education Mr. Cochrane, Miss Weinheimer, Mr. Kramer. M r. K r'arne1'eHfl3oy.s' Gym. Miss Weinheimer-Girls' Gym. The most necessary thing in life is physical fitness. Lack of interest, or unwillingness to participate in a school project may be overcome, but physical inability prevents even the enthusiastic student from serving. A puny body complicates service to one's self. The body must endure the constant drain of energy expended in strenuous school life. So two years of physical education are compulsory for graduation. 5:3 ln this department supervised by Mr. Kramer, assisted by Miss Weinheizner, Mr. Cochran, and Mr. Weibel, one period each week is devoted to gymnasium exercises and another to swimming. The student considers this recreational play and good fun, but he is really developing a sound body, character, and sportsmanship in an environment where the best health habits prevail. The rush of a class of pupils to the locker rooms, their haste in donning gym suits, and their eagerness to gain the floor demonstrate the popularity of this subject. The routine consists of exercises, calisthenlics, or apparatus work to promote muscular control, coordination, correction, strength, grace, and mental alertness: any popular game, a cold shower and school clothes again. Swimming attempts to make every student a swimmer by instructing beginners and advanced pupils in various strokes and ln dlvmg. Our fine pool is kept sanitary by excluding anyone with an open sore, a cold, throat infection, or any allhction which might contaminate the water and endanger the health of the others. With such physical education separate for boys and girls the development of body and mind keep apaee, fitting Vineentites to attain the best throughout life.

Dancing-Girls' Gym Carnival Chorus-Auditorium Show Carnival Honk! Honk! 'tSay there, won't you wait for me9,' Through the clamor of the ever-swelling traffic, students of Strong Vincent High School and their friends make their eager way to the school, where the Sixth Annual Carnival is being presented under the auspices of the Student Council. Yincentites have been looking forward to November the sixth, which has long been marked on the calender, for a grand time at the Carnival. Everyone lends a willing hand to this project, so that the school may raise money for the curricular and extra-curricular activities. f'Check your coats here, please! An excited group of visitors are met by a number of courteous and equally excited boys, eager to check outer garments as their means of contribution to the Carnival. Before our friends catch their breath, they are approached by a girl offering candies or roses for sale and are swept merrily into the gaily decked halls where the fiesta is already in full swing. Above the loud clamor of the crowd the leather-lunged barkers lure the merry-makers into their respective side shows :Achills in the Ghost House, thrills in Modern Miracles, and fun galore at the Bingo Came, the Fish Pond, and the brand new Klub Amsterdam in the Cafeteria, complete with its German Band and singing waitresses! On all sides there is a happy buzz amid bright sur- roundings, for the art class has certainly outdone itself in decorations which make the Carnival a dazzling affair. The huge posters above all the side shows depicting the wonders within make it impossible to pass on. One stops to admire the sign, to read it, and finds himself within. As eight o'clock approaches, the crowd throngs into the auditorium to obtain good seats for the Auditorium Show. The orchestra strikes up, the lights fade to dimness, and an expectant hush falls over the audience. To-night a new idea is being tried, that of having a king and queen rule over the festivities. To fill these offices Bob Davis and .lean Carson have been elected by popular ballot of the students. Almost as much excitement and interest attended this election as did the pres- idential election. The parted curtains reveal the ruling sovereigns seated on a raised dais sur- rounded by lovely ladies-in-waiting and splendid courtiers. Two pages sound their golden trumpets and the court is opened. Eddie Hausmann, genial master of ceremonies, announces the first number, and from this moment an almost bewildering array of talent performs one act more amazing than another. A galaxy of entertainers draw ap- plause from the audience to the very end :A Harvey Kuhn and his Troubadors, James and Anna Mae Henry in the waltz from Spring Time, Norma Maclvor and Anice Bretts in a beautiful piano duet and a group of graceful male members F Lfty Carnival of the senior class arrayed in airy pink costumes for an astounding Boys' Ballet. These together witl1 other equally entertaining acts are deftly compounded into the best Auditorium Show ever presented in Strong Vincent High School. At the conclusion of the last number, the well satisfied audience divides itself into two groups, one attending the Midway Show, and the other attending the Pool Show. ln the latter, there is continuous entertainment rivalling the Marine Theatre of The Great Lakes Exposition. Several new ideas are introduced into tl1e Pool Show this year, the special favorite being one in which the entire group of swimmers advance gracefully two by two to the strains of the Blue Danube. A mock wedding takes place, followed by a game of water baseball played by the girls. After an ex- hibition of plain and fancy diving come the relays. The old favorite, the traditional night-gown relay, is greeted by laughter and applause as the frantic swimmers struggle to rid themselves of tangled wet night shirts and quickly transfer them to their anxious partners. Finally, after more thrilling and laugh-provoking entertainment, as a climax to the aquatic program, the lights are extinguished and the swimmers move into position carrying lighted candles to form S. V. in gigantic letters. Next the happy crowd makes for the last per- formance of the Midway Show in the gym. The audience hushes as the ring master, Sheldon Wolf, announces with elaborate flourishes the first num- ber. Fantastic looking animals, which never knew a native forest, and hilarious clowns troop out, the curtain again rises on a group of living statues dressed in football suits, presenting such classic poses as Touchdown, I-Iuddle,', and First Down. The ring master introduces Alice Lavery followed by her tapdancing elephant, which looks suspiciously as if it were supported by two pairs of troused legs. In the Dog Show a host of wonderfully trained dogs are presented to be judged. After many other entertaining and hilarious acts the show closes with a thrilling dis- play on the double bars, the climax being a pro- fessional performance on the triple bars by a modern Tarzan. Never before has time sped so quickly. Eleven o'clock arrives far too soon and ushers in the official end of the most successful carnival that Strong Vincent High School has ever experienced, not only in excellency of type of entertainment pre- sented, but also in financial returns. With a net profit of almost seven hundred and fifty dollars we have no anxiety concerning our extra-curricular activities for this school year.

V Dorcttes Hotel Guests Garage High Speed 6'Girls, keep in time. Kick higher! Take it over from the beginningf, Mr. Winter, director, pro- ducer, and author of Hi-Speed watched critically, determined that this show would be a great success. Equally determined were the cast, who soon transmitted their enthusiasm to the entire student body until the very air seemed charged with excitement. The plot of Hi-Speed concerned a race driver, Jimmy Quinn, CDick Guthriej who was assisted CPD by three hilarious mechanics Tom, Mose, and Chick, CJohn Shreve, Al lVlcClimans, and Joe Rastatterb all of whom believed that a new carburetor which Jimmy had invented would enable him to win the great Minneapolis race. During a test Jimmy had wrecked his automobile and was forced to seek a second hand car from his chief competitor, Mr. Yan Camp, the auto magnate tGeorge Fluegelj. Mr. V an Camp's insistence upon giving them a car was explained when they viewed the old wreck beyond repair. Then Jimmy received a telegram from H. I. Speed, otlering to advance live thousand dollars on the con- dition that H. l. Speed be givenfull charge of the garage. Jimmy was forced to agree. To the boys, dismay H. I. Speed turned out to be a lovely girl, tllita Lynchj who insisted upon adding feminine touches Fdly-two Nfechanics Bell Hops Hi-Speed Cowgirls High Speed to the garage, even to pink overalls for the boys in contrast to their natty new red tools. The inevitable happened, Jimmy fell in love with his mechanic only to discover that she was really Jane Yan Camp. Jimmy Won the race, as Hi-Speed had planned, despite his pink Coveralls. Before the happy ending there were many ridiculous situations, and much disentangling of affairs to be accomplished. Texas and Pete Clidna Lutterbaugh, Bill WeberD as newlyweds from the Wild West furnished noisy comedy. Their exhibition of fancy shooting proved too much for the hotel manager CJack McNeillj, the radio announcer tlid HausmanD, the doorman CBill Parsonsl, the bell hop CCharles Barbourl liven the self-assured Mrs. Van Camp tBelty Jane Northl, and the ubiquitous reporters CPaul Oberkircker, John Byrd and Harry Baurl were thrown into consternation by their antics. Many graceful girls and boys in attractively costumed chorusesflloorettes, Cow Girls, Mechanics, Hotel Guests, Page Girls and Hi-Speed Girlsaadded color to the whole. Their clever dance routines contributed largely to the success of Iii-Speed-such a gigantic success that an extra performance was given on Saturday night to meet the demands of an admiring public.

February Senior Class Play The,curtain parted on the lobby of the Mountain View lnn', and then with plenty of What Ho's and Frightfully Jolly's', CI-IEERIO, MY DEARIO,,' was enacted with a bang. From the opening of the first to the close of the last act, the play was one mad scene of mirth. lf the spectators did not laugh when Melchizedek was thwarted in his hopes of a kiss from Desdemona, they made up for it during the very touching love scene between Tommy Tarrant and the sputtering and outraged Lord Twillingham. The plot centered around Cherry Holt, a vivacious, funloving girl, CClaire Thayerj and her sister, Sue Grahame, Cliiu th Goodrichj married to a red-headed young Vesuvius obsessed by the idea that every man in the world was making eyes at his wife. Ben McCreary was the jealous husband, while Robert Davis was Tommy Tarrant, Cherry's flirtatious, two-timing young suitor. The performance of John Shreve in the role of Lord Cuthbert Twillingham, in search of an heiress, nearly knocked 'em in the aislesf, Joe Wysocki, James Snodsbury by name, was a valet to the crazy Englishman. There followed numerous interesting Sweethearts in pursuit of Cuthbert's title. Among these were Miss Sophronia Spatchett, CEllen Stockmanj an old maid with plenty of money but little else, her French maid, Fifi, CAleen McDonaldJ with little money, but everything elseg Mrs. T. Jefferson Johns, a society woman, CVirginia Benderbg and her meek little daughter, Gwenneth, CRutl1 Schuetzj. To top the performance Margaret Boetcker appeared in the role of Desdemona, the tall lanky maid at the Mountain View Inn, and Harry Elsessor as Melchizedek, her lazy Ethiopian lover. Backstage witl1 the cast, an anxious form crouched under the desk at the left. This, as you probably have guessed was Edward Hausman, the official prompter and student director, and a very capable one, too. At the right entrance, Marion Andrews, the property manager, was chewing her finger nails in an effort to keep the excited amateur actors from going on stage without their necessary properties. At the extreme left, behind the curtains, was secreted a very select private audience consisting of Miss Jean Wilson and Miss Ellen Connell, the hard working directors, who, after all, were the most important part of the whole performance. As the curtain closed and the audience walked out of the doors, still chortling over the amusing performance of Cheerio, My Deariof' we felt certain that the actors' efforts had not been in vain.

June Senior Class Play Action! Excitement! Enthusiasm! No, not a football game, only a rehearsal for the lively Senior Class play, GROWING PAINS. The cast has been chosen and the work is well underway, com- petently directed by Mr. Henry Vincent of the Playhouse. The story is as alive and vibrant as the peppy Seniors themselves, for it concerns a typical American family with a young son and daughter in the painful but necessary process of growing up. Professor Mclntyre, CBill Parsonsj is the bewildered father, who cannot quite comprehend the actions of his young offspring, while Mrs. Mclntyre, QDoris Tritlej is a motherly, sympathetic woman who tries her best to rear her two healthy, happy citizens, but is frequently baffled herself. George, CHarry Bauerj the older of the two, is on the borderline of seventeen bravely trying to emerge from the awkward age. He is not quite capable of controlling his emotions, to say nothing of using his vocabulary correctly. Terry, CVirginia Sterrettj his younger sister, is fifteen. She is unable to decide whether she should cling determinedly to her status as a tomboy, or relinquish it in favor of high heels, so she solves the problem by alternation. Terry has even a more pressing problem than this. She is fond of Brian, QAI McClimansj, who heart breakingly enough, is captivated by the local siren, Prudence Darling, CJean Keublerj, slightly older and vastly more sophisticated than the other girls. Prudence has also bewitched George, and he is jealous of Brian, who is to escort her to the party given by Terry and George. Brian has been forced to squire the mousey Elsie Patterson, QMary Elizabeth Leaheyj daughter of the aggresive, determined Mrs. Patterson, CHarriet Zesingerj. To the party are also invited some of George's friends, Dutch, CHenry Brownj, Omar, CSheldon Wolfl, Pete, CGeorge Fluegelj, and Hal, CJohn Byrdj, all of whom help to complicate matters. Among Terry's friends are Patty, tCharlotte Whitelyj, Miriam, CDoris DuMarsD, and .lane CAlice Laveryj, who are in a state of constant anxiety because of Prudence. Sophie, CJean Valinj, the maid, has her hands full at such a party, and the traffic officer, tCharles Alessij makes his appearance at a most inopportune moment to arrest George. Finally the whole affair is settled, George turning his affections to a new comer from the South, tDoris Sticklej. There is every reason for the success of another Senior Class Play, aided by the helpful and efficient management of the class advisers, Miss Burger and Mr. Wallach. Fifty-five WMU Fiedler, Geiger, Neiuer, Duncan, Wollbrd, Stage Crew When you look at this group of boys who, as you have been told, are working their heads off just for the fun of it, you probably receive the impression that tl1ey're either getting some reward which others do not know about, or else they're slightly Hbalmy in the crumpetn as our English friend would say. In the case of our Stage Crew we are inclined to think the first alternative is true. But what reward do they receive? Judging by the expressions of the faces on the above picture, we cannot help coming to the conclusion that, even though it is a lot of work, the job of being a stage hand tbesides being very educationalj affords a great deal of pleasure. If you have ever seen any plays at Vincent, you have probably had an irresistible urge to go back- stage and see what is behind the scenes, other than a group of excited actors and actresses in a great worriment over lost lines. If you have ever had occasion to satisfy your curiosity, you probably know that we attribute a great part of the success of these plays to our stage crew. It is through the work of these boys that we get the perfect timed curtain falls, the excellent light effects and the atmosphere of real lifesall of which make our plays successful. Have you ever stopped to consider what might happen if we had no one to take care of these things? You never can tell but that the curtain might be pulled in the middle of a scene, leaving a bewildered actor outside at the footlights to find his way in as best he could, and it is not impossible that someone might bump against a switch and plunge the stage into darkness precisely at the psychological moment for the hero and heroine. Such an episode would be inexcusable. With the assistance of our Stage Crew we manage to keep things very well organized. With Mr. Shanor to aid them, the boys have learned the art of keeping order amidst the uproar and confusion usually accompanying the production of any play. But the work on the part of the stage crew is not completed with the close of the last curtain as it is with the actors. While the actors are on their way home to nice soft beds, the boys must begin taking down the scenery, and putting things back into order again. Now we are sure that the very next time you come to a Vincent play, you will notice some- thing other than the acting and be extremely glad to give credit for the success of the performance to the Stage Crew.

National Honor Society Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service! With these four words as a slogan, how can any organization fail? To this slogan we owe the success of our National Honor Society. Our school has many organizations recognized for the promotion of one or another of these standards, but the Honor Society is the only one that helps a member in the development of all four. In every school in the city, in every city in the country, in every country in the world, you will always find a class of students who have the idea that school is the worst thing that ever could have happened to them, and the sooner they can leave, the better. But if you look further you find another class, definitely in the minority, who believe in true advancement in life and in taking advantage of the wonderful op- portunities the twentieth century affords them in the way of Public Education. In the latter class are the prospective members of our National Honor Society. Such students make it the end and aim of their lives to do the best with what they have, and to further themselves in these four principles: Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service. These students have long ago put aside any childish idea that a teacher could possibly have a grudge against them because they failed to bring her an appleg and that she gave Bill an A on his report card because he has beautiful eyes. Consequently, these students receive much more benefit from their studies than do those who go through school believing that it is anybody else's fault than their own that they have not attained scholastic eminence. They learn to develop character by a constant association with worthwhile things. As a reward for effort, and as an incentive to continue good work, the boys and girls who have striven to develop themselves along these four principles are chosen for membership in the National Honor Society. The students eligible for this fraternity are chosen by the faculty. Each semester a list of students outstanding in scholarship is sent to the various teachers for comments on character, leadership, and service. At the nearest possible date after the choosing of new members, an auditorium program is ar- ranged to receive formally the students into this organization. We thank Miss Mercer, Miss Bryce, Miss Warfel and Mr. Arnagost for their excellent supervision of these students, and we hope that our National Honor Society may continue its excellent influence on our school.

Language Club As the years go by, Strong Vincent marches proudly along with the other schools in the parade of progress. Each year something is added somewhere to increase the interest of the students and to make our school better than ever before. It may be only a different idea about this or that organization, and then again it may be a new activity altogether. This year the faculty members went into a huddle and came out with the excellent idea of forming a Language Club. Consequently, a few weeks later, the French, Italian, Latin, and German teachers met a horde of eager students in Study Hall 202 and our Language Club was formed. We are very confident that the infant will thrive and succeed, for it already has a membership of one hundred eighty boys and girls, a lively staff of officers, and a very capable group of faculty advisers. The officers elected at the first meeting include: Joe Cutri, President, Carmella Di Placido, Vice-Presidentg Barbara Dawson, Secretaryg and Dick Arbuckle, Treasurer. The group is under the joint direction of Miss Willard Wright, Miss Mercer, Miss Galbo, and Miss Kohout. The purpose of the organizing of this club is mainly to help students who are interested in specializing in foreign languages. But aside from this purpose, it gives the member a background for future study that is of infinite value to him in later life. The programs at each meeting are planned by the various language clubs. At the first meeting the members were entertained with a program arranged by the Italian division, and at the second meeting the French students put their ideas 'together to give a picture of French life. At the next meeting the members anticipate an interesting representation from our German Club. Much interesting and valuable information is gained by all those associated with this organiza- tion and through the fine programs presented, the members acquire a more complete and balanced appreciation for all foreign languages. We wish these students success in their new undertaking and we look forward to the forming of other and better organizations. F iffy-eight Sealed--Mancini. SlalulingfDil'lucid0. How lfBonamini0.

With this objective in mind, the members have spent many pleasant hours together in their search for a knowledge of their chosen language. This club was organized in 1934 and in the three years of its existence, it has equalled, if not surpassed, the other study clubs in obtaining a wealth of material used in the appreciation of Italian culture. A very keen interest has prevailed among the members of this large group, and each one has a glowing desire to help make the Italian Club a real benefit to those students attracted to their language. This year found the group very actively keeping up its good work. At the yearly Carnival, some of the members entertained a number of spectators with Il Marito Disardinatof' a play in the Italian tongue. This same play was performed later on the Roosevelt Junior High stage in an All-Italian program, given jointly by the two schools. Perhaps the greatest factor in the spirit of fellowship existing in this organization is Miss Rose Galbo, its faculty adviser. Under her able leadership this year, the following students were elected to office: Carmella Di Placido, Presidentg Warren Di Santis, Vice-Presidentg Carmella Saverino, Secretary, and Anthony Mancini, Treasurer. Interesting and helpful programs are arranged in the form of slides and talks given by fellow members. Another source of pleasure are the many pictures and books which bring the sunny country across the sea right into the classroom. Each year the Italian Teachers' Association in New York offers a six weeks' trip to Italy to twelve Italian students from all over the United States. The winners of the contest are chosen by their marks in a special Italian test and their scholastic record as a whole. This year several of the boys in our Italian Club are competing. We wish them luck in their undertaking, for we feel certain that such a valuable experience would be appreciated by our boys to the greatest possible extent.

Vergil Club A great many years ago, 'way back in the time when you were in grade school, you probably remember an older sisterls or brotheris sitting at a table with a Latin book before him, with a heavy frown on his forehead that plainly said, 'iDo not disturb. lf you go forward a little farther in your life history, you might recall hearing someone say that Latin is the foundation of all languages. As you progressed into Junior High School, you were given the delightful information that Latin was a required subject and forthwith you could picture yourself forsaking movies and various other pleasures for a Latin book that you would gladly throw in the gutter. But as most of you know, Latin is not a difficult subject, and can really be very enjoyable if you put your mind to it. There are some students who enter the Latin room determined either that the subject is too dull, or that they are too stupid to master it-only another excuse for being lazy. In the accompanying picture you see those students who have found Latin a great pleasure and a greater privilege. Under Miss Mercer's guidance, these Latin students have delved vigorously into the ancient language, and have emerged, if not with a knowledge of the Latin language, with a knowledge of the customs of ancient Rome, and a desire to continue their studies in the future. The governing body of the Vergil Club is copied after that of old Rome. In the place of the president, there are consuls, each presiding at alternate meetings. A scriba acts as secretary and three aediles take the place of the program committee. The meetings consist of delightful programs relative to ancient Roman life. We feel that we could not get along without our Vergil Club, for We credit it with being largely responsible for the interest these students take in their study of the Latin language.

With these words the president asks the meeting to come to order. The secretary calls the roll, and the business begins. The order of business includes talks on German life, songs, games, skits given by the students in the German tongue-in short a general good time. The program committee, composed of five members appointed by the chair arranges the program for the semester. In one of the monthly meetings of this year, the members had the pleasure of listening to Gertrude Boetcker's father-a speaker who had visited Germany in the past year, and had made a study of conditions among the people. The club is composed of students in German 2 with an average of above 90, German 3 students with an average of above 85, and any of the German 4 students wishing to join. The meetings of this organiza- tion like all extra-curricular activities are held after school hours on the second Thursday of every month. The officers elected for the past year are as follows: President, John Shreveg Vice-President, Charles Lund, Secretary, Margaret Boetckerg Treasurer, Charlotte Gerhardt. The German Club was formed in 1927 at old Central for the purpose of gaining a better knowledge of the life of the German people. Due to the excellent supervision of its faculty adviser, Miss Kohout, the organization has enjoyed success through the ten years of its existence. By means of its correspon- dence with students in Germany, the club comes in closer contact with the German people and gains a little information about the political conditions as well as the manners and customs existing in that country. Through the contacts and information received in these meetings, the German students are gaining a knowledge which will help them a great deal in their study of the German language. The students thoroughly appreciate the tireless efforts of Miss Kohout and look forward with anticipation to the work of the German Club, revised each year to meet changing modern conditions.

Band Music makes the world go 'roundf' You have often heard that trite expression, but have you ever felt its reality? We shall narrow the world down to our own school, and the music down to our own Band-the Band we from the grand stand in the stadium have so often admired for its precision of ma- neuver and striking appearance. Music, especially Band music, can lift one from the depths of gloom to the heights of enthusiasm. That is the purpose which our Band serves,-fait stimulates enthusiasm, its militant airs instil a fervor of excitement within every heartg it gives us pep, the pep needed to demon- strate the desire, tl1e will to win on the gridiron, track, in the gym or in the pool. This splendid organization lends a good opportunity to boys to become quite proficient in musical ability. In the Band they become fully acquainted with the manner of great and famous musical groups. They acquire a love and appreciation of the fine qualities of good music. Very beneficial training is extended under capable leadership to every boy affiliated with the organization through which he may benefit, and ability is here discovered and given proper aid and training. Under the able leadership of Mr. John Ramsay Brown, the Band has developed into the finest of the city and added to its repertoire numerous selections which are known for their great beauty and difficulty of execution. The recent concert given in conjunction with the Orchestra, proved, beyond a doubt, the sterling qualities possessed by our Band. Other performances included playing for regular auditorium assemblies, for pep rallies, and for meetings of the Parent Teacher Association. Aside from its musical program, the Band, with the Orchestra, sponsored a gay dance in the Girls' Gym and a picnic on the peninsula as a grand finale to the school term. Any boy who can play an instrument may join the Band class which meets daily during the First Period. Although the pleasures derived from activity in the Band are sufficient reward for their work, five members are further rewarded each year by the Student Council with minor school letters. The emblems of recognition are appropriated to those who, in three years service have given greatest evidence of improvement. During the past year James Weaver served for the third time as President, Mark Wagner as Vice-President, Robert Westcott, Secretary, and George Zesinger as Treasurer. Sixty-two 1. 'sau 1 Q .

O r c h e s t r a Music is an art, and, as an art, it has reached a high degree of perfection in the Strong Vincent Orchestra. In the practice sessions held daily during the year, the Orchestra has developed into one of the finest of the city, under the direction of Mr. John Ramsay Brown. In playing for themselves, and for others, the Orchestra members have been able to grasp an appreciation of music which will grant them untold enjoyment in the years to come. For others who are not talented musically, a program of en- chanting waltzes or lively marches affords inestimable pleasure. So powerful is music in the control of' the emotions, that the hopes and lives of the audience may soar with the baton of the director. The Orchestra has been very active during the recent school year. It has offered selections at many special occasions, including commencement exercises, a meeting of the Parent Teacher Association, and the Clare Tree Major productions. For tl1e naturalization exercises held at the Court House, several musical numbers were given. The Orchestra also credited itself and the school which it represents by a sterling performance at one of the regular broadcast high school programs. lts principal performance, however, was the annual concert, given jointly with the Band. It was publically acclaimed more en- thusiastically than ever. The social program of the Orchestra was limited this year to a dance in the Girls' Gym, sponsored by both the Orchestra and the Band, and the regular picnic held yearly at the peninsula. Strong Vincent is proud of her fine musical organization. The pride she has is amply displayed by the students in their enthusiastic support of its activities. Through the efforts of the members of the group, a keener and fuller desire to know and appreciate good music has been instilled in the student body of our school. We are most fortunate in having the splendid opportunity of being so closely connected with this exceptionally good activity and receiving the benefits it can afford. As the President of the organization, Probert Nichols was chosen. Robert Lohse, Vice-President, Elsie Lund, Secretary, and Tom Lucore, Treasurer, constituted the remainder of the executive staff. At the end of the year, five minor school letters were awarded by the Student Council to those members of the Orchestra who were considered the most Worthy, by Mr. Brown, in at least three years of faithful service.

But of course, considering the supreme intelligence of all Yincenl students, and taking it for granted that nothing could ever be wrong with us, we suppose, as a matter of course, that we all enjoy and appreciate the selections of Bach, Beethoven, Hachmaninoff, and what have you. But whether we understand good music or not, there is not a person among us who does not recognize the beauty and feeling of music when our A Cappella Choir sings. The World would be a terribly dreary place to live in, if it weren't for music, and just as dreary is a person who doesn't enjoy music and who isn't uplifted by it. As we listen to the blending of the fine young voices raised in song, perhaps our fancy takes us into a world of dreams titled with laughter, danc- ing, sweet music, and everything lovely and charming. As the rhythm of the melody changes, we drift back to past centures with their color, excitement, and romance. When we lose ourselves in the rapture of music like this, we naturally forget the sorrows, and disappointments of life and turn to the future with a smile. And if we gain such great benefit by listening to music, think what a joy it must be to be able to sing and know that we are helping others as well as ourselves. So it was with the purpose of creating and developing the appreciation of good music that our A Cappella was organized in 1932. This aim is accomplished to perfection by our director, Mr. Grender. A toast to our director in appreciation for his work, for he deserves all the honors we can give him! At the time that the Spokesman goes to press we are anticipating the pleasure of hearing the A Cappella over WJZ and the Blue Network of the N. B. C. from Radio City on May 22nd from tive to five-fifteen. What a thrill for both Choir and listeners. Sixlyjour i 1 X 'l rex K. U4 q . Slmzding CenlerfMr. Grender. Row l-Donatucci, 0.

Glee Club If you were to visit Room 224 during the Sixth Period, you would find an industrious group of boys, ranging from proud and haughty Seniors to the humble but ambitious Freshmen, all engaged in the manly art of singing. The present Glee Club was organized as recently as 1935, and the members are,well on their way to a bigger and better organization than ever before. While the boys are in the Glee Club, they receive splendid training for future work in the A Cappella Choir, and at the same time enjoy good group singing for their own pleasure in such typical male chorus songs as: 'iHome on the Range, The Sleigh,', 'iOld Man Noah, Golden Slippers,', 'LA Log on the Fire, and many other favorites. This year, because of the fact that tl1e Clee Club is composed almost entirely of new members, there have not been tl1e usual number of public appearances. Nevertheless, the few in which the club participated showed that they still retain their position as one of the best male choruses among those of the local l1igl1 schools. The Clee Club was enthusiastically received at several of the Junior High schools in the city, and they also contributed much to the impressiveness of the Christmas concert, which was really one of the best produced by the musical organizations of Strong Vincent. The art class transformed the stage into the stately simplicity ofa cathedral, which background provided an excellent setting for the beautiful Christmas music. The Glee Club practiced diligently under tl1eir competent director, Mr. Ubed L. C-render for the Spring Choral Concert held in May, thereby winning new laurels for their singing. Mr. Grender had able assistants in the oflicers President-John Walters, Vice-President.-Paul llosanske, Secretary and Treasureref-Robert Bologna, who served for the first semester, also in: President-Paul Rosanske, Yice- Presiden tfliugene liocco, Secretary and Treasurere.loseph Massello, who served for the second semester.

Girls' Chorus Among the clubs of Strong Vincent which have made the greatest progress during the past year, the Girls' Chorus could well be nominated for first place. The choristers have worked so earnestly that their improvement is outstanding. The Girls, Chorus is another one of our organizations which have been brought from Old Central. It aims to prepare its members for the A Cappella Choir through basic training, and to give those who enjoy group singing, an opportunity to develop their voices. This group of fifty girls is under the competent direction of Miss Galinsky. In honor of the new members of the first semester, a regular old fashioned pop-corn roast was held after school in the Citizen's Library. Since the library has no fire place, an electric grill was pressed into serviceg but the old fashioned spirit prevailed notwithstanding. Those present made many new friends and became better acquainted with the old members. Next the choristers turned their efforts to procuring robes for its members. It had long been the ambition of tl1e Chorus to have a uniform dress, so as to present a better appearance, and finally their ambition was realized. The uniforms are dress length white smocks with red buttons, and double red and black collars and cuffs. A few kind mothers volunteered to make a part of the uniforms, and the sewing classes did the rest, under the cheerful direc- tion of Miss Benson. The money for the uniforms was realized from the Christmas Concert, the Chorus being allotted the proceeds derived from tickets which their members sold. The Christmas Concert was one of the most beautiful and impressive ever presented at Vincent. In the background of the stage there was an ex- quisite cathedral window designed by the art class, and four beautiful Christmas trees which the mem- bers of the Chorus had trimmedg the true Yuletide spirit pervaded throughout the performance of lovely holiday music. Among their other activities for the year the Chorus attended a theater party at the Playhouse, presented a radio program, sponsored by the Erie Tuberculosis Association, and sang for the Erie Ad Club at the Lawrence Hotel. The girls appeared in the new costumes at the Spring Choral Concert. D The officers for the first semester were: President-Eleanor McGuire, Treasurer-Jean Schwartz, Librarians-Jeanne Connolly and Charleen Breesegand for the second semester: Presidentalfirginia Ennes, Secretaryeliileen North, Librarians'Louise Parsons and Aldeen Fuller.

The job consists not only in showing people to their seats and then enjoying a free show, but also in keeping articles in the possession of their rightful owners and in maintaining order in the auditorium. For instance, if by any chance, a spirited canine creature, or mayhap the animal commonly known as the alley-cat saunters into the auditorium with an irresistible desire to display his vocal powers, it is the usher's solemn duty to aid the intruder in an about face and forward march. The boys seem to have their hands full with the untold number of mischief makers who have somehow managed to make their way through the doors without the formality of tickets. And then, at all these school affairs, there is usually some absent-minded professor who cannot remember where he left his umbrella. In such a case, we find the ushers in the role of the lost and found department. To these young men who have adopted this worthy means of serving their school a fine opportunity for good development is offered. They learn the value of cooperation and efficiency. A nice apprecia- tion of good conduct and good manners is instilled into them, and as they go about their various duties they are impressed with the fine results that careful and courteous attention command. Promptness, efficiency, and affability are the foundations upon which the pride of the Strong Vincent Ushers is built, alnd each of the members of the group develops a respect for the fine qualities employed in carrying out t is service. As we watch these students in their immaculate white coats strutting proudly up and down the aisles and doing their very best to reflect credit upon their school, we notice an air of distinction hovering over the scene. And if our eyes happen to spy Mr. Shanor, their faculty adviser, anywhere among the audience. we will notice that he is justly proud of his part in making our ushers the best to be had. The most admirable and probably the most necessary quality in this body is courtesy. We are sure that in this respect our ushers cannot be surpassed anywhere, and we feel perfectly justified in expressing our thanks for their services to Strong Vincent.

Monitors According to the dictionary a monitor is one who warns of faults or informs of dutyg one who gives advice and instruction by Way of reproof or cautionf, Although this is precisely the duty of our monitors, We do not tremble with fear at the sight of one of them, for they dispatch their duties with such cheerful- ness and courtesy that they have long been recognized as one of the most outstanding organizations for service in the school. This organization also originated in Central High School, and is still carrying on, here in Strong Vincent. Each semester, Miss Burger, the adviser, selects eighty trustworthy students to fill the various posts during the six periods of the day. ln charge of each period is one chief monitor, whose duty it is to see that every monitor under his charge is at his assigned post, and to fill the place of any absentee. The position of monitor is a very responsible one, and should reflect credit on one serving in this capacity. It is no mean task to maintain order in the halls during class hours, to police the cafeteria, to check excuses and lunch permits of every student attempting to leave the building during class hours, to direct visitors around the building, to conserve electricity by turning the lights on and off in the halls before and after the exchange of periods, to run school errands for various teachersfto do these and a thousand other little tasks which the cheerful monitor should do every day as a matter of course. He gives up one study period a day to sit in the drafty hall Where he acts in this capacity a service willingly rendered. To each monitor is issued a card signed by Mr. Coon and Miss Burger, signifying his responsibility and authority. Naturally the holders of these cards are rather proud of the confidence Which such badges of honor attest have been placed in them. Thanks to the cooperation of the whole student body in maintaining fairly good order, the monitorial stall' has been a success. Visitors to the school agree that the monitors are a great help. The students are quite proud of the system. The monitors enjoy their service. Miss Burger, in particular has con- tributed a large share to the success of this group by organizing and directing the work of the monitors. Sixty-eight Sealed-Winston. Standing-Durbin.

Council Have you ever seen a chicken during the first few minutes after its head has been cut off P lf you have, you probably saw the chicken hopping aimlessly about until, finally recognizing the fact that without a head it might just as well lie down and die. Take this example of a headless chicken and compare it with a group of people, making a poor attempt at keeping intact with no leader. There isn't much difference between the two. Like the chicken, parts of the group flutter hither and yon with no apparent object in view, while the rest attempt great undertakings that are nipped in the bud because of a lack of organization. Strong Vincent is extremely fortunate in the possession of a group of studentsa the Counciluunited for the purpose of guiding the interests of the students in the right direction. Is there a motion before the house? Any further discussion? Are you ready for the question? Any more business? Perhaps not exactly like that, but there is resemblance enough to recall the meet- ings of the Student Council, the foundation of all school activities. On the first day of each week a number of students gather in Room 224 for the regular Council meeting. After the meeting is called to order, and the minutes are read, there usually follows a lively discussion of this, that, or the other important matter. Sometimes committees are appointed to manage one of the Council dances, or to decide upon a course of lectures for the student body. The selection of committees is no simple matter, for the success of our school depends largely on the expert manage- ment of all school affairs. Council devotes much time to the promotion of the fall Carnival and Spring Comedy. The money obtained from these major undertakings, finances the Christmas baskets, the letters to outstanding students, the lectures to the student body, the expenses of the various clubs to neighboring cities to participate in scholastic activities, and many other worthy projects. The students eligible for Council are elected by vote in the home rooms. Each home room is entitled to one representative, so you may be sure the pupils choose a representative who is well fitted for the honored position. We feel very proud of our Council and we hope it may always continue its work as successfully as it has done in the past. Sixty-nine How 1-Hausruann. Row l-Krimmel, Sherk, McGonncll, Farrington.

Cheerleaders That's more like it, try it over again! Pep and more pep, keep it up! Keep it up! Miss Bryce is right. It takes plenty of pep-plus a good strong voice, and an infinite capacity for and willingness to work unceasingly to be a cheerleader. Plenty of fire and energy are required to maintain school spirit at its highest possible level. We naturally think of the cheerleaders as the very personification of school spirit, and they really have to be in order to meet the varied tasks assigned to them. Much practice is necessary to a group like this in which coordination and team Work are the basis of action. During their practice sessions in the Girls' Gym, the very halls reverberate with enthusiastic din, and the rafters ring to the sound of healthy voices. Only the most capable and dependable of the usual crop of candidates consisting of both boys and girls are accepted into this group, and out of these only those with great endurance and tenacity survive the season. To this loyal group we owe a debt of thanks for the high pitch at which they have kept the school spirit during the year. Whether we win or lose, the cheerleaders are always on the job! Cancly Sellers A group which is becoming more evident every year in school life is the Candy Sellers. Previously they received little notice, but when the news of the results of their efforts is reported to Councilevery year their position is becoming more and more respected. As one of the service groups of the school, they accomplish a significant task. After school everyday, approximately ten girls under the super- vision of Miss Willard Wright give their time to a worthwhile service. They are posted at strategic positions in the halls, where hungry students are bound to pass, and there they display their tempting wares invitingly in boxes. The results are amazing. Anyone who collects facts and figures would prize the statistics which show how much candy the average healthy high-school student can consume per day. In any event, a considerable amount of money is collected every year by these girls, and turned over to the treasury of the Student Council. This fund is then used to support various school organiza- tions such as the Band and the A Cappella Choir. During the ten years since the founding of our school the girls of the sophomore class have willingly undertaken this duty.

Debating Club Have you ever been ready to chew nails, throw bricks and break everything Within sight only be- cause you could not express yourself well enough to Win an argument? I think we all feel that way at times. We get into an argument and we know very well what we want to sayg but when it comes time to say it We become confused, stammer, stutter and by the time we gain control We have forgotten what we intended to say. The purpose of our Debating Club is to help the student to overcome these difficulties and to give him a foundatign for future college work. This year Strong Vincent High School belongs to the Western Section of the Lake Erie Debating League. The subject decided upon for debate is 6'Resolved that Electric Utilities should be govern- mentally owned and operated. After participating in the required number of debates the school with the highest number of judges' votes will be the winner of the section to which it belongs. The Winning school of each section agrees to meet in a final championship contest to be held at Allegheny College. The sides will be chosen by the Director of Debate and the winning side will be presented with awards donated by Allegheny College. Our Debating Club was not formed until rather late, but great interest was taken in it, when once it was under way. Anyone interested in Debating might report on Monday, the Sixth Period to gain practice in this subject. Mr. Pratt, the capable coach, provided good subjects for debate, the sides were chosen and the practice arguments were begun. This procedure gave the new members an opportunity to become acquainted with the methods employed, and soon all the members of tl1e club became fairly competent debaters. When all the members who wished to try for the regular team felt that they were ready, they prepared three-minute speeches on Resolved that Electric Utilities Should be Govern- mentally Gwned and Operated taking either the negative or the affirmative side. Then Miss Joanna Connell and Mr. Anderson, who were asked to judge all the contestants, chose the following for the regular team: Mary Frances Gilson, Betty Lemmon, Doris Snow, Donald Eagan, John Walters, Henry Brown, William Kramer, and Jack McNeill. At the time of tl1e printing of the 6'Spokesman,' the results of the debates are not yet known, but we feel that our teams will present a good showing.

Spokesman Board To produce a high school year book is a task such as few who are not actively engaged in the actual work realize. We all enjoy looking at the finished product, but we seldom consider or appreciate the work lying behind it. lf you have the quaint idea that little splotches of the school are gathered together and slapped between covers to make our yearbook, then you had better consult a member of the Spokesman Board. After a heart-to-heart talk with a '5Spokesmanite,,' the next time you look at the book you will not see merely a few nice pictures decorated with a deluge of meaningless words, but the combined efforts of a body of students who have struggled to produce a yearbook worthy of your Alma Mater. Suppose you come with me and visit one of the weekly meetings in Boom 118 after the Sixth Period. As we enter, we are impressed by the complete absorption of each one in his work. In one part of the room we find Mr. Humphrey in conference with our editor-in-chief, Richard Eastman. lf we play eaves-dropper for a moment, we may discover that the subject under discussion concerns the number of words required for a certain editorial or the number of pages allowed for a particular division. Over there we see Miss Bennett explaining the mysteries of writing to some would-be-author in the midst of an important assignment. With another turn of the head we find Miss Pearce giving the art workers a few hints on finishing a drawing with the masterful touch. We may even glimpse a member of the editorial staff in the depths of despair over the difficulty of expressing his thoughts. In the return for the service these thirty-eight students render, they receive a worthwhile experience upon which they will always look back with pleasure and gratitude. Although we believe that a year book is an educational activity worthy of being scheduled on school time, the Spokesman workers have cheerfully labored after every one else has Hnished his school day. They have enjoyed the work and obtained a great deal of information for themselves. With a sigh of' regret we turn the annual over to the 1938 Board to improve, but we know that they can never have more fun than we experienced in creating the 1937 Spokesman.

News Staff K Toward the end of every school month any casual observer may notice an air of excitement pre- vailing throughout the whole school. Everywhere one goes he will hear varied ejaculations emerging from behind huge pieces of paper. Scattered here and there, little groups of animated students jabber, giggle and chortle to their hearts' content for the full ten minutes of the home room period-and some- times even beyond that time, but why mention that here? Now what is needed to complete the picture? The answer to this riddle, of course, is the Strong Vincent News. Perhaps of all the organizations in our school, the News staff is more highly appreciated than any other, and rightly sog for composing a paper that will be of interest to each and every student is no easy matter. The members of the staff are required to take a course in Journalism every day the Sixth Period from Mr. Schenck, the faculty adviser. But the work does not always end each day with the period. It is sometimes carried on after school when articles are written and re-written, and proofs read and re-read, and approved by Miss Hearn in a never ending effort to turn out a paper better than any previous issue. A great deal of valuable knowledge is gained from this important extra-curricular activity by the members connected with the publication of the N ews. Business of news printing is of course thoroughly stressed, but the many other activities which must be accomplished in completing the publication give ample opportunity for the News Staff to acquaint themselves with hard and responsible work. Again and again this group is called upon to produce pleasing and valuable information in their paper, and must, therefore, be thoroughly familiar with all the activities and programs that take place from month to month. The value of prompt, efficient service is fully appreciated by the group affiliated with the print- ing of the News. - The News organized in 1932, is the first paper in this school to stand the test of time. Other papers have come, lasted a few months and disappeared from our midst. But the News has persevered and grown until it has become a part of school life. This year it has been extremely fortunate in a large sale of subscriptions.. Let us not be satisfied with things as they are. Let us boost our staff and make the News better and better as the years go by.

Girl Reserves gg g The Girl Reserves has always been a very popular and highly commendable organization in Strong Vincent. I t was instituted in 1925 at Old Central, and ever since then has clung to its chief principle- Service On December nineteenth the club took part in the Hanging of the Greensf' a traditional English Yuletide ceremony, which is observed every yule season at the Y.W.C.A. The members helped to sell Christmas seals for the Tuberculosis Society, and made many colorful scrapbooks and gay stuffed animals to give to the Zem-Zem Hospital for crippled children, thereby helping to make the children's Christmas a happy one. The club has always willingly aided the Parent Teacher's Association by acting as guides in the halls, and by presenting many interesting programs for their entertainment. It is customary to give a Christmas program at the Old Ladies' Home. Aside from service, the social aspect has not been neglected by the club, either. A gay and suc- cessful Tri-Hi dance was held at the Masonic Temple by the Girl Reserve Clubs of the three local high schools. Several pleasant tureen suppers were given at the Y.W.C.A. and teas were enjoyed after school in our library. After school food sales were held, and, thanks to a horde of hungry students, the entire supply disappeared in an amazingly short time. This year has seen a tremendous increase in membership, and a gay initiation greeted all tl1e new members. The candidates were compelled to wear blue or green hair ribbons to school, fancy aprons, different colored stockings or socks, and no make-up whatever. Several fine speakers were presented to talk on subjects interesting to the girls. Mrs. A. Ryan spoke on poetry appreciation, and Miss McCullough, Girl's Work Secretary of the Y.W.C.A., explained the working of the Ring Groups-a new department in Girl Reserve Clubs. To be eligible for member- ship in this group, a girl must have been a member of the Girl Reserve Club for at least a year, have shown interest in all its activities, and have taken a part in all service rendered. At the end of this time she judges herself, as she knows herself worthy of a ring at the end of this period, she pays the fee and is pre- sented with a ring at the Ring Ceremony. Needless to say it is a great honor to belong to the Ring Group, for to do this a girl must stand for all the fine and high principles which the club advocates.

Hi-Y I resolve to do all within my power to create, maintain, and extend throughout my school and community, high standards of Christian character. Perhaps you recognize the oath of the Hi-Y. A boy with a sincere aim like this is indeed a boon to his school and to his community. While the results may not be outstanding and ostensible, unquestionably, many students have been uplifted by the stand- ards set forth by the group of boys who represent the Strong Vincent chapter of the Hi-Y, sponsored by the Young lVlen's Christian Association. - The objective of this organization is primarily character building through the encouragement of clean sports, scholarship, clean speech, and high living. With these things in mind, the Hi-Y was organized under the guidance of the Y.iVl.C.A. as a nation-wide organization. Weekly meetings at the Y provide opportunities for boys to mingle with each other in programs suited to their peculiar interests. Discus- sion of problems of a business nature, or of leading questions of the time constitute the more serious portion of the meetings. Outside talent is occasionally introduced for entertainment.. Supplementing these activities, swimming, ping-pong, or some other popular diversion is enjoyed. Monthly, a joint meeting of all the Hi-Y clubs of the city is held. Membership in the Strong Vincent chapter of the lli-Y is decidedly limited in number. The list of candidates for admission to its rolls is drawn up twice yearly, each member being privileged to recommend one candidate. Wlletlier he be accepted or not is determined by the entire active body. After an informal initiation, the successful applicants are formally initiated at a solemn ceremony, pledging themselves to uphold the principles of the Hi-Y, and to live so as to reflect credit on the Hi-Y in his school, and in his community. The members complimented by being elected to official positions for the past year were: Paul Barclay, President, William Parsons, Vice-President, Richard Eastman, Secretary and Treasurer, and Joseph ltastatter, Sergeant-at-arms. Mr. Pteiman of Roosevelt Junior High is chief adviser of the organization. The social program of the Hi-Y is perhaps better known to most of our student body than are its more serious aspects. At least the tremenduous popularity of its dances and other gatherings affirms the fact that, while the organization directly affects only a few, most of the student body desire its existence for a purely social reason. Therein lies the worth of the Hi-Y. That organization is invaluable which leads young people together in good, wholesome entertainment from which is derived the spirit of cooperation and harmony essential to society!

How much does it cost to attend Cornell? What college would be best for law or engineering? Where can I procure financial aid? How can I win a scholarship? What is college life like? These and numerous other questions are answered satisfactorily through membership in our College Club. This organization offers a splendid service to the student preparing for college. Formerly too many young people have entered college without any knowledge whatever of what to expect, or of what is expected of them. They become discouraged and disheartened, are most unhappy during a period of adjustment, or give up entirely. This unfortunate experience might have been avoided. So it was with the purpose of informing the prospective college student concerning the type of college suitable for him, as well as giving him an idea of campus life, that this club was organized at Central under Miss Burger's supervision. Any Junior or Senior pursuing an Academic course is eligible for membership. Upon joining the student designates the particular college in which he is interested and receives all available information about that school. The bi-monthly meetings take the form of inspirational talks by Mr. Coon and other speakers as well as interviews with representatives of various colleges. The members work together in their common interest, selecting their schools and planning their courses of study. They are a lively group eager to experience life and to serve their fellow men. This year, at the November meeting the following officers were elected: .lack McNeill, Presidentg Jeanne Luke, Vice-Presidentg Harriet Zesinger, Secretaryg Bill Saint, Treasurersunder whose leadership the Club is experiencing a very pleasant and successful year. We take this opportunity to urge every student in the college preparatory course to join the College Club. He may be sure that through the excellent connections arranged by the program committee, he will attain a better idea of college and be better prepared for life.

Coaching Staff Strong Vincent is a name that stands for power and efficiency in every branch of athletics. Our organizations on the gridiron, court, track, and in the tank are always formidable in recognition for top honors. We have good teams, we have capable teams. The success in these activities at Strong Vincent can be attributed to the fine work of our coaching staff. The records alone, compiled by Red and Black teams, vouch for the efficiency of the Colonel mentors. This group have distinguished themselves highly for instilling traits of determination and sportsmanship in our athletes. We are most fortunate in having an efficient coaching department that is instrumental in keeping the name of our school forever on top in athletics. On the gridiron, the representatives from Strong Vincent are always strong. Mr. Kramer and his cohorts Mr. Cochran, lVlr. Gustavson, Mr. McCarthy and Mr. Wallach, annually turn out rugged Foot- ball teams that faithfully live up to the glorious name- Fighting Colonelsf' In Basketball, the Red and Black is exceptionally strong. Through the excellent work Mr. Kramer has accomplished with the cage squad, the Colonels have been most successful in their quests for the court crowns. During the past seven years the Red and Black have won the city championship no less than three times and have never finished a season in lower than second place. The Track team, put through its paces by Red Cochran, is always a fine organization and last spring proved its power in winning the City Track Crown in a most decisive victory. The ability of Art Weible is respected throughout Pennsylvania, for his swimmers are constantly bringing home the bacon for Strong Vincent. Champion Tank teams at the West Side school are frequent and the Water Polo teams coached by Mr. Weible are always prominent in the Polo Crown Race. Year by year Mr. Humphrey and Mr. Anderson are responsible for expert teams in Tennis and Golf which are among the most formidable in the city and county loops. Miss Weinheimer's workin the girls' activities in athletics is very efficient. The lntra-mural activities and Inter-scholastic sports furnish every active girl an opportunity to participate. Keen competition for the Vincent lassies is provided in Basketball, Volleyball, Deck Tennis, and Shuffleboard. V incent's fine name in athletics proves the ability of our coaching staff very satisfactorily, and their leadership is most influential in developing clean, healthy minds and bodies in our students.

National Athletic Honor Society Membership in the National Athletic Honor Society is the highest honor that can be paid to any athlete in Strong Vincent. It stamps him as being outstanding not only in the athletic activities of tl1e school, but also in the scholastic pursuits. The sacrifice he must make to compete in the sport program is very great, but when an individual can enter enthusiastically into athletics, and keep his scholastic average high enough to qualify for membership, he is certainly worthy of a special recognition for his efforts. It requires hard work. It means long hours of practice and study, for after vigorously practicing his chosen athletic program all afternoon, the honor student must then, even though tired from his exegtion, apply himself diligently to his lessons. Admission into the society rewards him for his faithful app ication. The purpose of the National Honor Society is to foster scholarship among athletes, to stimulate a desire for balanced training, and to elevate tl1e ideals of sportsmanship. This is truly a worthy purpose, and acts as an added incentive to a boy to become a good student as well as athlete. To gain admission into the National Athletic Honor Society, one must have earned a letter in one sport and also have a scholastic average equal to, or above the average of the whole school, for three consecutive semesters. He must also have displayed the highest type of citizenship and sportsmanship. These are very rigorous demands, and a student has to work earnestly not only to earn a letter, but also to attain and to keep the required scholastic standing. The National Athletic Honor Society is a national fraternity. There are over 1400 chapters in public and private high schools throughout the United States. Strong Vincent has been affiliated with this society since the foundation of the school-in fact our chapter was organized at Central a number of years ago. The membership of the group at Strong Vincent has increased steadily year by year. In former seasons the majority of members were inducted from the football and swimming teams because of the prominence and size of these organizations, but recently the membership has become truly rep- resentative of all athletic activities comprising members from the football, basketball, track, swimming, water polo,'- and golf teams. The ever increasing membership is an excellent indication of the esteem in which the National Athletic Honor Society is held by the Sportsmen of Strong Vincent.

Football 4'On Strong Vincent, On Strong Vincent illarch right down that Jietdm- The fighting Colonels upheld the honor of that sentiment in the 1936 football campaign. Beginning the season as a young and inexperienced team, they improved with every game, outplaying their more seasoned opponents. In the first game of the year, they chalked up a victory at the expense of Mead- ville- sweet revenge for the 16-13 beating at the hands of the Bulldogs last season. In the next three games, the Colonels lost to East and Campbell Memorial, but won over F arrel. The team rose to its greatest heights in the game against the favorites for the city title, Tech, outplaying them in every depart- ment of the game and Winning by the score of 7-0. By this victory Vincent accomplished a feat which no other Erie school was able to perform, then ill fortune overtook the Red and Black. Vincent, riddled by injuries, was beaten by Bradford and Academy. The team came back to conquer a strong Ursuline team only to lose the following Saturday to Dunkirk. The Colonels then ended the season by dealing Cathedral Prep a crushlng defeat, making their season record of games five won and five lost. The team displayed a great fighting spirit throughout the year, outplaying their opponents in a majority of the games. In the games lost Vincent lacked a scoring punch when they were near the goal line. The team lost several of its varsity members with the close of the season, but the work of the substitutes gives promise of a strongjteam next year. DiSantis Flaherty ' Pctroll' Tate . E islhlv The Prep-Vincent Game. Foo t b a l l At the beginning of the Football season Coach Kramer had seven experienced men upon whom to build his team. Members of the reserve team of last year quickly developed into varsity players. The team was light in weight, but made up for this lack of weight in courage and speed. Misfortune over- took the squad when the varsity quarterback was injured in practice. This was a severe blow but Boss took over the quarter-backls duties and a hardy blocking back was discovered in Nick Petroff. The linei with Captain Bill Flaherty at the tackle position, turned in some splendid performances under his ea ers ip. At the close of the season Coach Kramer placed many reserves in an effort to sound out candidates for next year's team. The play of these men gave a promising outlook for the fighting Colonels of 1937. Schedule SQV. Opp. S. V.

Basketball Although the city crown was wrested from the Colonel Basketball players during the past campaign, the record compiled during that period by the Vincent lads is exceptionally fine. The Red and Black opened the defense of the city title with a thrilling victory over Westfield High and proceeded to blaze through the first half of the schedule, winning ten encounters and losing only half that number. ln the city series, however, the Colonels predominated the scene, bowling over Tech by a 37 to 23 score ln the opening game and then spanking the Warriors 30 to 25. It appeared that Vincent was well on her way to another championship. In the next city series struggle the Colonels pulled the Lion's tail to the tune of 36 to 32 and finished the first round of city competition on the top of the heap, aposition which gave them a decided advantage in the race for the city title. At this most important point in the battle for the supremacy of the Erie court crown, the hard luck jinx pervaded the Kramer forces. Billy Ross, a sparkplug for the Vincent Clan in the upper court, was suddenly lost to the 'team and his absence weakened severely the smooth working machine of Vincent. While new combinations were being sought to lengthen the winning streak the Colonels had started, Tech wrought havoc in the local camp by snatching a hard fought game. Then the midyear graduation took its toll by robbing the team of two of the mainstays of the combine. Herb Klemm, the sharpshooting forward and captain, was forced to relinquish his hold on the individual scoring title which he held at this time, and Tony DiMaria, a consistent, cagy, guard was forced to the sidelines. Accordingly, this additional disadvantage weakened the Red and Black scoring punch and the hoopers lost the next game with Academy by a 32 to 35 decision. Stephenson K uch Bologna Klemm Di Vecchio E' ighly-two s Strong Vincent vs. Academy game. Basketball The new combination organized by their efficient mentor to hang on to the slim margin of a lead enjoyed by the Westsiders at this stage of the race, brought fresh hopes soaring into the hearts of the Vincent followers, when they unleashed a new scoring punch combined wilh a rugged defense by turning back Brookville by the decisive score of 39 to 15. Experience was lacking, however, and despite the bril- liant start made by the Colonels, East High eked out a narrow victory by a slim two point margin in the next encounter. lt appeared that Vincent was caught in a slump, and no effort was able to bring her over to the victory side of the ledger. One chance remained, however, by which Vincent could maintain the championship, and that was through consecutive victories over Academy and East. The lads rose to the occasion and displayed championship form in turning back the Blue and Gold, 29 to I5. Enthusiasm soared, for victory was again in sight. It was a fierce struggle, the lead changed hands consistently, but at the final whistle, East High held the scoring advantage and the lVlen of Kramer were forced into the runnerup position for the toga in the city series race. Vincent had a splendid team, a team the Red and Black can be proud of and the outcome surely would have been much different if hard luck had not robbed the Colonels of their scoring punch. Another commendable season has been completed, and the record of 16 victories and 9 losses compiled during the season stamps the Vincent clan as a fine aggregation, and amply rewards the tireles sefforts of Sam Kramer. During the Basketball campaign Strong Vincent met with favorable results against Westfield, Al- liance, Tech, Ursuline, Greenville, East, Academy, Brookville, Prep, Academy, Silvercreek and DuBois, bug were forced to succumb to the forces from Dunkirk, Farrell, Jamestown, Alliance, Tech, Academy, an East.

One of the most successful and fruitful years in the history of the school was completed last March by the Vincent natators. Each June sees the different athletic teams depleted as the graduating class leaves. Accordingly, early in September Coach Weible summoned together the remnants of the strong team of last season. At the completion of the Water Polo season-in which Strong Vincent had a remarkably fine campaign, Hnishing in a four way deadlock for first honors, with a keen determination and the same old fighting spirit-dthe Vincent mermen developed a strong unit that swept triumphantly through a difficult schedule and lost only a single meet. The defeat was at the hands of the erstwhile champions, Tech, and by a close score of 38 to 37. In every meet the Vincent clan displayed overwhelming power, and in two in- dependent combats the Colonels crushed the highly touted tankers of Tonawanda, once at the Westside school and again in the New York State waters. Early season prospects indicated that the tank crown would be hard won this year, all the teams being evenly matched. The Colonels, however, downed East High decisively in the opening fray, and then, crushed the championship Tech swimmers in the Vincent pool by the very gratifying score of 54 to 18. This victory placed Coach Weible's men on top of the scholastic race, from which position they never fell throughout the season.

However, since Tech had suffered a setback at the hands of Academy, Vincent needed only one more victory to clinch the championship, and proceeded to secure that at the expense of the Hilltop swimmers. In that decisive meet the Colonels displayed their neatly balanced power by winning every blue ribbon and capturing the city tank crown. 0 Fresh from their splendid victory, the Vincent swimmers entered the annual Quadrangular Swimming Meet. Here they overcame great odds and splashed their way to victory, compiling 37 pointsfa feat which overwhelmed Tech's 33, East's 18 and Academy's 11. And again in the District Ten meet the Weible Clan predominated, cracking three District Ten records in the 100 yard backstroke, the 100 yard freestyle and in the 160 yard freestyle relay. In the Western Regional Meet the Colonels came through victoriously and then performed brilliantly to amass 31 points and finished second in the State Meet. The lads garnered more glory for the Red and Black when they established two new records at the Carnegie Tech Relays and a fitting climax to the profitable tank season was affected when the Colonels came through with a thrilling one point victory in the Annual Pittsburgh Swimming Meet. Strong Vincent rejoices in the enviable record evidenced this season by the Bed and Black swimmers and has a burning desire to cintinue it in seasons to come.

These words express most gratifyingly the results of the exceptionally fine efforts of the Red and Black Track team, and the efficient work of their able director, HBed Cochran, during the 1936 campaign. The fruits of the year were well earned and the hard work spent by the boys on the squad was amply repaid by the City Track toga. v After a mediocre season in 1935, a well balanced team of exceptionally strong performers banded together to carry the Red and Black through a remarkably successful season and raise the Strong Vincent banner high over the local cinders in 1936. The climax of the year proved to be the city meet in which the Colonels rose to unprecendented heights to grab away the city crown from the Blue and Gold of Academy for the Hrst time in thirteen years. ln that spectacular meet, held for the first time under the lights in the Erie stadium before a huge throng of more than 5000 enthusiastic rooters, the men of Cochrane stepped out to display a ruggedly determined team, which, led by the brilliant individual efforts of Captain Hutchings, Callista and Heberline, amassed the overwhelming total of 53 points, while East High col- lected 36, Academy 25, and Tech 19. It was a fine meet and the Vincent forces took the command at the out set and doggedly piled up the margin of victory.

During the season the Vincent aggregation did not suffer a single setback in dual competition, the only blemish on tl1e near perfect schedule being a tie with the East High Warriors early in the season. They breezed through the regular schedule downing the clans from Alliance College, Bradford, Dunkirk, Silver Creek and Tech in successive order to stamp themselves as formidable condidates for state honors. In the District Ten meet, the Vincent team placed second, being nosed out by Academyg but in the State meet the Colonels reversed the tables, and gathered eight points against the Lions' four. Perhaps the most thrilling event of that meet was the mile relay in which the Colonel runners showed their heels to the field and set a new Pennsylvania high school record in the brilliant time of 3:28 g2. We are most fortunate in having several outstanding individual performers who will be back in 1937 to further the conquests of the Red and Black on the track. Led by Jimmy Callista and Joe Heberline, the Vincent Track organization should be able to repeat their sterling conquest of the past season and through the able Work of their fine coach retain the trophy for Strong Vincent.

' Team Among the sports included in the athletic program at Strong Vincent, is one which, although not followed closely by a band of enthusiastic supporters, is rapidly coming to the fore as a sterling leader testing skill and sportsmanship. This interesting sport is Golf! Interest in this nation-wide pastime is spreading and growing more intense annually at Vincent, and the spirit displayed by the boys attracted, indicates fine organizations on the links in the future. Early in the spring last season the call went out for candidates to be developed into able golfers by the steady and capable coaching of Mr. Anderson. He was confronted with the task of moulding a formidable aggregation around one lone veteran performer. After a sufficiently long period of drill and practice, qualifying rounds were executed and five new men were chosen to combine and carry the Red and Black onto the fairway. The Strong Vincent Golf Team is a member of the Erie County Golf League. This league is composed of eight teams which play a schedule of 14 matches. Strong Vincent, a new and inexperienced team, won six of their frays, and lost eight, dropping several by the slim margin of one or two points, Ex- perience told the tale, and cheated the Colonels of victory on not a few occasions. A great deal is to be gained for a boy in competing in golf. Sportsmanship and fair play are the keynotes of the game. A participant is constantly on his honor, and he must be a good sport on all plays. In order to become a good golfer one must learn self control. A single misplay must not result in the loss of the composure of the offender, but he must concentrate on the task of playing the next shot expertly, disregarding the poor play. The thrill of keen competition is excellent in the development of the boys who play, and they learn to experience sweet victory and bitter defeat with an appreciative sportsmanship spirit. The team of last season at Vincent was a fine organization that became decidedly stronger as the season progressed, and at the end was not to be taken lightly by the opposition. They opened with a decisive 7M to 4M victory over Wesleyville and fared very well in the following matches. Strong Vincent is proud of l1er growth on the golf links since inaugurating that sport and aims to develop teams in the future that will be serious contenders for the golf crown. Eighty-eight I Fogelbaugh, Peterson, Davis, Porter, Randall, Tennis Tennis teams at Strong Vincent, always formidable organizations in the city and county, are widely recognized as outstanding squads of sterling ability. The spring season of 1936 was no exception, the Colonels completed another fine schedule of which Vincent may be proud. Through the able leadership of Mr. Humphrey, and the brilliant performances of Bob Davis, the Strong Vincent Net Team finished a highly successful season the record of which is complimentary to the fine efforts exerted by all those associated with this interesting branch of the athletics, which is becoming more and more important in the high school sport realm. .Enthusiasm ran high at the beginning of the spring practice and a wealth of fine material gave promise of a formidable Tennis Team. Competition was intense in the battle for positions on the Varsity Squad, because an untold amount of unusual tennis ability was uncovered by the coach as he put his charges through their pre-season paces. When at last the net season approached and the competition for the city championship began, the Colonels, led by the fine playing of Davis, Randall, Porter, Abbot, Fogelbach and Brei, drew first blood and thrilled the hearts of rabid tennis enthusiasts by decisively conquering the East High in the favorable score of 7 to 0. At this point, when the smooth working com- bination seemed destined to sweep through the schedule with narry a loss, an unexpected blow was dealt to the squad when an appendectomy ruled Bob Brei out of competition. The spirit of the team was un- daunted, however, and the boys maintained their winning streak by quelling the Tech Centaurs 415 to ZM. This match brought many thrills to the spectators and was only decided by the final doubles match which the Colonels managed to draw out of the fire favorably. In the next combat the Vincent clan continued their march toward the crown by displaying championship caliber in turning back the Blue and Gold decisively in a 6 to 1 match. Unfortunately, however, when a Tennis championship seemed almost within grasp of the Vincent Hracqueteersf' the team suffered a heartbreaking setback at the hands of the strong Prep squad who carried off the court crown and forced the Red and Black into a runnerup position. Bob Davis added further distinction to the Colonel cause, however, by winning the scholastic court title and a first place in the city tournament. We are proud of Mr. Humphrey's excellent Work in moulding such an expert organization on the court. The splendid record the netters compiled speaks well for the prowess of the Tennis team. Eighty-nine Girls' lntra-mural Sports SHUFFLE BOARD One of the recent activities, introduced into the Girls' Intra-mural program is Shuffle Board, always a favorite game aboard ship. Shuffle Board is played by teams of two, each player being allowed five shots on the deck painted on the floor of the Gym. The team accumulating the highest score in two out of three games wins the set. Tournaments in this sport rouse much interest, and many of the girls are gaining skill and precision in their shots. With great energy and practice they are working to attain better scores than those rendered by the teams of last year. Shuffle Board, as well as the other sports, keeps any girl desiring to participate extremely active during the spring season. LIFE SAVING One of the most beneficial aquatic activities enjoyed by any girl of Strong Vincent High School is Life Saving. This invaluable training is spon- sored all over the United States by the American Red Cross. We who live on the shore of Lake Erie are exceptionally fortunate in having such a helpful course available. Through this field of education the students may learn not only how to become perfectly at ease in the water themselves, but also how to handle others under almost any critical cir- cumstance. The girls master methods of assisting a frightened person without endangering them- selves. They learn how to cope with two victims struggling together and how to render artificial respiration. However, the most important thing a girl gains after having completed this course is the ability to remain calm under trying situations and to think clearly and quickly. Every person who has successfully fulfilled the Life Saving requirements is invariably a better mental, as well as physical specimen of humanity. Anyone wearing an American Red Cross insignia has worked well for the honor and may be trusted to do his duty. SWIMMING Several Intra-mural swimming meets were run off this spring with the respective grades com- peting among themselves for honors. These meets provide fun, and serve to build up a healthy competitive spirit of rivalry. The swimmers try from one meet to another, to improve their strokes in speed and form in order to vanquish the winners of previous contests. In this manner the girls are developing fine bodies and obtaining invigor- ating exercise and experience. Such competition gives those girls, who have been practicing faith- fully every week, but have not yet acquired the finesse necessary for competition on the Varsity squad, a chance to prove their skill. In this field the girls benefit directly from their persistence and receive recognition for their efforts. Shuffle Board, Life Saving, Swimming, Volley Ball. VOLLEYBALL r Volleyball has proven to be one of the foremost in the girls, Intra-mural program in recent years. During the elimination tournament staged during November, the Twelfth Grade lassies carried off the championship. Ninety q,,...Y . Girls' lntra-mural Sports TUMBLING TEAM The smaller, more agile girls gain great enjoy- ment working on the Girls' Tumbling Team. Members of the team spend much time working out new gymnastics, practicing and improving the exercises already included in their repertoire. They strive to perfect certain numbers suitable for exhibition purposes in order to be prepared when they are called on to display their ability. Each one learns the invaluable lesson of cooperation with every member of the team. After some practice the tumblers soon acquire almost perfect coordination of mind and body which aids them in the performance of more difficult feats. To the participants of this sport, Tumbling is regarded not only as enjoyable exercises, but also is an art to be cultivated. BASKETBALL One of the most vigorous, energetic sports enjoyed by the girls is Basketball. The groups, divided into teams according to grades, play off an exciting tournament vying among themselves. Despite the fact that Basketball must be played according to girls' regulations, the games provide exercises and thrills for the spectators as well as the participants. As admission to the Girls' Letter Club is tl1e spoils which go to the victorious team, great effort is exerted to attain the trium- phant position. TENNIS Despite the modifications and departures from the rules of Tennis there will always be some who enjoy it more than any other sport. Tennis is a fast moving game requiring perfect coordina- tion. Our new courts make possible more practice and training in this field. Concentration, energy, speed, and general athletic ability are all necessary qualities constituting a real Tennis player. Our girls are earnestly striving to develop these at- tributes and are gradually through their efforts building up real competition. RING TENNIS One game which is increasing in popularity with those lasses who indulge in the athletic pro- gram, is Bing Tennis. This novel game provides a refreshing dif- ferent type of sport. Bing Tennis, a modification of tennis, is also played across a net, but one strung higher than that used in the regular game of tennis. A small white rubber ring is the only other property essential to the game. The ring is tossed back and forth over the net until it falters, or is dropped. When this happens, a point is scored for the side which did not let the ring touch the floor on its side of the net, or let it advance out of bounds on the opponent's side. To the spectator the game sometimes seems mild, but the players are allowed to catch the ring in only Girls who play the game may acquire a technique N imely-one i Tumbling, Basket Ball, Tennis, Ring Tennis. a specified manner which requires not a little skill almost as stunning as some seen on tennis courts Boys' lntra-mural Sports BOXING AND WRESTLING An extensive program of Intra-mural Athletics was planned this year by the Athletic Department for the students of Strong Vincent. Tl1e intra-murals, gaining steadily in popularity among advanced educators, started early in the fall and continued until late in the spring under the instruction of Mr. Cochrane. A large number of boys entered the Boxing and Wrestling division. After weeks of practice, champions were crowned in an impressive program of bouts staged before several hundred students with very gratifying results. Bob Schutte, who has the distinction of being a double winner, defeated Charles Kettering in the Lightweight Wrestling class, and then again after an extra round, in a Close Boxing match. In the F lyweight division of the Boxing tournament, Paul Robinson downed George Henry. William Hurley out- fought Richard Pimley for the Bantamweight A- . championship. The decision of this furious battle, difficult to attain, finally went to Hurley. Gregory Lopez gained over Jack Good for the Light-Heavy px 'ii Weight championship only after a hard struggle. if In the feature battle, Roland Behnke triumphed fx, ,f over Walter Brown. Behnke made good use of a X sharp left hand to keep his opponent on the defen- . ,S sive. Walter fought a hard battle, but Roland A received the unanimous vote of the judges. In the Wrestling division of the Intra-Mural program, Teddy Zglinski vanquished Karle for the . -. 100-Pound championship. John Greggs gained the decision over Ralph Carberry in the 115- Pound class after a hard struggle. Bud Kissell overthrew Tom DeMarco in the 135-Pound class. This, too, was a close match, but Kissell proved too strong for DeMarco. Jimmy Callista and Jack McCreary wrestled six minutes to no de- cision and then returned for another three minute-affair, only to finish both even. This was one of the most furious and exciting matches of the entire tournament. The margin of victory changed hands many times during the course of the event, but remained a tie at the end of the extra period. Fred Langsdorf and Bob Laird, two football players, wrestled in the finals of the Heavyweight division. Langsdorf threw Laird in a fast match, the only one of the finals decided by a fall. The 1937 tournament in Boxing and Wres- tling proved to be most successful ever held with an unusually large number of boys participating. Such tournaments encourage good sportsmanship and are of great benefit to the students of Strong Relay Champions. Xfincent- Home Room Basketball Champions. Q55 .X Tennis Doubles and Singles Champions. A Hne incentive to progress rapidly for the lads aspiring for positions on the Colonel track squad is the honor one can gain in the Indoor Olympics. This event is the culmination of the indoor practice of the team before moving out of doors to further their development. Those boys who have shown the best ability during the practice sessions in their own event are crowned champions of the Olympics. Keen competition is displayed and gratifying results are produced in this program. Ninety-Iwo Boys' Intra-mural Sports BASKETBALL The most important and perhaps the most interesting department of the Intra-mural ac- tivities at Strong Vincent is Basketball. In this sport, it is possible for every boy in the school to take an active part and thus become closely connected with the principles of sportsmanship and fair play. The Basketball tournament is comprised of two teams from each boys' home- room in the school. Keen competition is displayed and the participants have an ever growing interest in this important phase of the Intra-mural athletic program. The lessons in good sportsmanship, and the fine trend toward physical development derived from participation in the Basketball program is essential in the growth of the character and body of each player. He is impressed with the value of team work and learns early in life to appreciate the results of a willing spirit to cooperate. It is impossible for any organization to be victorious consistently if its members have no desire to play as a unit and not as individuals. The 1936-37 tournament was marked by closely contested battles and in the elimination system upsets were frequent. Excitement and enthusiasm were never lacking as the determined squads fought doggedly to bring the champion- ship home to their respective rooms. -The teams from 215 and 214 battled their way to the finals, each achieving four victories. In the playoff for the championship, the lads from 214 proved no match for the 215 team and were forced to re- linquish the Intra-mural Basketball Champion- ship to Home Room 215. TENNIS The Intra-mural program of athletics was started in the early fall with a request for entrants in the annual Tennis Tournament. This event is gaining in popularity at Strong Vincent, proven by the increase in the number of students enrolled. About thirty students sought permission to play. Partners were selected and the tournament began in earnest. The boys played their matches on the school courts each day after school. The tourna- ment was marked by many close battles and up- sets of the favorites. The boys displayed good sportsmanship throughout the matches and no complaints were received. These annual matches are a rigid' testing ground for members of the Varsity Tennis Team. Thus good material for the team is uncovered and the winners of the tournament usually become members 1' of the varsity team, if they do not already belong. Boxing and VVrestling Champions. A Bit of Action. Individual Indoor Olympic Chiimpl The singles title was won this year by Gerald Randall, a member of the Tennis Team. He defeated .lack McCarthy in the finals in a close match. Dewitt Bull and Harry Baur teamed together to send William Byrd and Robert James to defeat. Byrd and James showed by their performance that they will be strong contenders for the doubles crown next year. N inefy-three Girls' Swimming Team An organization that all Strong Vincent may be proud of is the fine swimming team that has been developed among the girls of the school. The young ladies who are connected with this important and interesting activity are very en- thusiastic about its welfare, and eager to make it a strong, aggressive group. Under the capable tutoring of Miss Weinheimer, their very efficient leader, the Girls Swimming Team has improved and grown rapidly during past seasons. Through the efforts spent by the aspiring Olympians on the team the record and reputation of the ability of the squad has grown rapidly. lt is a worthwhile project and well worthy of good support because of the splendid work it does in building up character and sportsmanship as well as good healthy bodies among the girls of our school. Early in the fall of each school year the girls start to work in the pool, in an effort to improve their form to become exhibition swimmers for the Pool Show of the Annual Carnival. After one delightfully exhausting evening the show is over, and they settle down to swimming for speed. In previous years the team has entered interscholastic competition. But unfortunately this year, the other city high schools have no teams, so the Strong Vincent girls will hold unchallenged the trophy, won last year. The cup is the only one ever won for the school through a girls' sport. Despite the fact that there are no interscholastic meets, the girls develop good form by intramural rivalry and are ready for future contests, if they come. In the late spring the girls take the American Red Cross Life Saving tests which pro- vide them for a summer of safety in the lake. Row I S Dunham, McGaughey, Gasper, Starrett, Pifer, Row I-J.

Girls' Letter Club A group of happy, healthy girls who have enjoyed competition in different sports together, comprises the Girls' Letter Club. These girls have either won a letter for swimming, or played on a winning com- bination in the intramural sports. Membership in this interesting organization is a fine incentive to the young lassies of our school to become thoroughly interested in the athletic programs offered here. Fair play and sportsmanship are stressed just as strongly in these girls' activities as they are among the boys. A keen appreciation of healthy activity is built up among the members of this club, and each one attains a love of competition so valuable in building and developing character. This year the members are planning to help the new lettermen pay for their awards. The popular means of raising money is sponsoring food sales. This manner of gaining funds has become so successful that some of the other organizations have adopted it. An event which is always a popular means of financing the club program is the basketball game of Faculty versus Letter Club. In the first place eyeryope is in a dither wondering if the game will be played. Then the game itself is rare fun, regardless o resu ts. The group being interested in varied sports enjoys hikes and picnics during the year which are noted for quantities of food and fun. The crowning event of the program of the year is the banquet to which the alumnae are invited. This final event brings together all the girls who have a common interest in athletics. Such contact with girls proficient in different sports aids each member in becoming a versatile sportswoman. N inefy-four , nm I mlllllllll I llllllll ll ll x ll I N if llllllllllu ll ll .

Parent Teachers' Association The Parent-Teachers Association of Strong Vincent High School, organized in May 1934, has certainly justified its existence in the daily life of our school. The theme of this organization is Raising Home Standards through Educationf' With this objective ever in mind, the P.T.A. strives to promote child welfare in the home, the school, the church and the community, as well as to bring the home and school into close cooperation. The association through the study groups for parent education, through the welfare department, through the committees sponsoring student loans, Worthwhile legislation, radio broadcasting, better films, hospitality, the drama, hygiene, publications and music, has a 'wide range of activities. Programs of music and talks by some of the best local talent are given at the meetings in addition to the regular business routine. In this way culture, entertainment and instruction are brought to the community. ' Weekly classes in Parent Education are held at Longfellow School under the able leadership of Mrs. M. J. Straus. This year the course is Understanding Adolescence. Mrs. Straus opens the meet- ing with a prepared topic which is followed by a general discussion. The Parent-Education class includes the P.T.A. members of Longfellow, Gridley and Vincent Schools. ' The Welfare Department has done much for pupils who have needed help during the past three years. This year six hundred garments made by the women working on the W.P.A'. sewing project were allotted to our school through the P.T.A. These garments in turn were distributed by the Welfare Committee to the needy in our school. Any students in the school without shoes or proper clothing are cared for by the Parent-TeacherAssociation. Q At the present time plans are under consideration by the Student Loan Committee for accumulating a fund of five hundred dollars. This money, designated as the Hattie M. Schabacker Student Loan Fund, will be used to assist students, especially those in their first year of college, who find that they lack a small sum of money to get started. Funds for this project will be acquired by contributions from interested parents or citizens. , The membership for the current year has reached three hundred and fifty. The Membership Com- mittee believe that if all the parents of our Vincent students understood and appreciated the great pos- sibilities the P.T.A. possesses to promote favorable conditions both in the school and the community, the-membership would be greatly increased. The annual dues are only twenty-Hve cents, certainly 'low enough to make membership possible for every one. ' Ninely-s ix ,LMM ye ' 1 Dr, Norbert.

We may better appreciate the importance of its two mem- bers: Dr. Scibetti and Miss Secord, the nurse, if we consider all they do for us. Their fine efforts in behalf of the safety and health of the students of Strong Yincent are seldom fully realized. lt is because of their untiring desire to preserve good health and further correct and beneficial personal hygiene, that makes the parents of our pupils enthusiastic in fulfilling their suggestions. We are dependent on these few capable benefactors to help our school maintain a strong, active, interested student body. During the greater part of the year we hear little from either the doctor or the nurse. During this time, however, they are not idle. ln fact. they are busy everyday working to check disease and sick- ness. When a pupil is ill, Miss Secord visits his home and sees that he is given proper attentfion. lf the disease is contagious, care is taken so that it does not spread to.other persons in the same home or at school. In this way,'our health is being protected at all times. V Once during the year the Medical Department becomes a prominent part of' the school, for once a year a thorough physical examination is given to every pupil. Examining almost two thousand pupils is an enormous and trying task involving a great deal of work. The doctor performs the examination and Miss Secord keeps a record of each pupil's health. The school readily gives way to the annual exam- ination because of 'its importance. Eyes, teeth, and throat arecarefully examined. If any defects are discovered, pupils are advised to consult their family physician. By taking care of these defects im- mediately, many diseases and later ill health are prevented. Pupils unable to meet the expenses of a physician are given excellent treatment at the school clinic. At other times during the year Miss Secord, Who devotes two mornings each week to the school, is prepared to render first aid in case of any emergency. Good health is a very important asset and one-which we must possess in order to forge ahead to success. Without health we cannot do our best work, we are tired, uninterested. With it, we can over- come almost any difficulty. We do not want merely to avoid sickness, but to enjoy exuberant health. At our age we take good health for granted, for we do not realize how much it will mean to us a few years from now. Someday we shall be very grateful for good health and thankful to those who helped us to safeguard it. N inefy-seven Row 1iMrs. Starks, Mrs, Irish, Miss Runser, Mrs. Miller, Miss Haas, Mrs. Miller. Row 2-Fisher, Thaler, Benner, Miller. Janitorial Staff The Janitorial Staff is a group of men and women indispensable to the comfort and cleanliness of Strong Vincent. The corps is composed of five men with Mr. Thaler as custodian, and six women under the direction of Mrs. Miller, who has cheerfully furnished information for this account. The work is divided among the group, their duties and hours vary. Although not specially invited by Miss Schabacker, Mrs. Miller reports at eight o'clock each morning and works until five-thirty in the afternoon, with a lunch hour of an hour and a half. The other women come from one-thirty to five thirty. They are responsible for the cleanliness of class rooms, halls, stairways, auditorium, showers, girls' toilets, gymnasia, locker rooms, pool and offices. The students' lockers are never dusted, but are washed every fortnight. In this way no dust or dirt accumulates. Once a year the lockers are thoroughly washed on the inside and on the outside. The men whose hours parallel those of Mrs. Miller, sweep the auditorium, gymnasia, corridors, and entrances. The men wash the outside of our ever bright and shining windows, and the women the inside. The men sweep the cafeteria every day, and it is the particular charge of one woman to dust it thoroughly each day also. Every night the men sw3ep the halls and once a month the women mop them. As soon as the class rooms are vacated the women appear with a vacuum cleaner, the deafening noise of which apparently does not interfere with its efficacy. The men give particular attention to the condition of the boys' gymnasium, toilets, locker rooms, the control and projection rooms, and the entire engineering department. They also take excellent care of the beautiful lawn and all equipment. The entire staff cooperates in a wholehearted manner with every school project, all buying the Spokesman and News.H Whenever we are selling anything, they not only buy, but also sell to their friends. The students enjoy the geniality of the Staff and appreciate their excellent care of our school, their interest in school activities, and, their general friendliness and helpfulness.

Cafeteria Staff Every student of Strong Vincent will recognize the following routine: time 11.20 a. m.g the bell, a rush through the halls, downstairs despite the monitors, Mr. Dean and Miss Burger, a glance at the menug a quick decision, and away we go with a tray of food to Hnd a place among the lively, noisy crowd in the Cafeteria. This is all that most students know of one of the very important service giving organizations in our school life, the Cafeteria Staff. We are not usually interested in what goes on behind the scenes. However, there is a great deal of activity there, and a very efficient staff keeps things running swiftly and smoothly, if a bit noisily. We are fortunate in having a well managed cafeteria, where there is very little delay or confusion in service. Luncheon must be prepared and the workers ready to serve not only once, but seven times every day. Cooking food in such large and varied quantities is certainly not an easy task, but this department of Strong Vincent is very capable. Long before the l1ungry students hurry into the cafeteria the staff members have planned, ordered, and carefully prepared all the food, temptingly displayed on the counter at rather reasonable prices. Unlike lunch rooms of most public schools this department is entirely self-supporting. Nine women, each with certain responsibilities under the direction of Mrs. Blythe, work busily from 8.00 a. m. to 3.00 p. m. They are further assisted by students during the lunch hour only. Any visitor to Vincent who glances into the dining-room during the Fourth Period will receive a lasting impression of a gay, noisy, happy crowd of young people. The cafeteria workers have always displayed genuine school spirit by cheerfully helping in school affairs where china, glasses, silverware or food are to be considered. Students with tickets to sell are certain to seek out these women among their early customers. In return, the majority of our students take great pride in keeping the cafeteria neat and clean and the equipment in good condition, and here express appreciation to these women for their valuable service.

No result. He strikes it again. Still no result. He hits it again, and again, and again . . . perhaps ten or twelve times, and the only appar- ent result is a surface mar. Then he strikes it again, and the rock splits. Which blow split the rock? Il was all Qf them. It's persistence with quality printing that puts it over. You call on a customer or mail him a folder. No apparent resull. You send him another . . . perhaps several, and still no result. But the next one may bring a reply which will lead to a steady and valuable account. That has been our expe- rience . . . and it will be your ex- perience if you don't give up. Give us a ring and let us suggest a plan to increase your business.

GOVERNMENT .... without PAPER HE Rosetta Stone, engraved by order of Ptolemy Epiphanes, was an effective enough legal document in its day. For in 196 B. C., no generous supply of paper existed for the dissemination of government information. Despotic rule does not have much need for paper. Things have changed. Taxation Without representation is out of fashion. Rule Without consent of the governed has a hard road to travel. Information, prompt and detailed, is expected when government makes a move that affects the welfare of citizens. Paper makes this diffusion of official information possible. Hereditary domination ol' lives and property of subjects Went suitably With proclamations cut in stone and baked in clay. Democracy and paper go hand in hand.
