Strong Vincent High School - Spokesman Yearbook (Erie, PA)

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.

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.
