George Bortree History To many probably little has been seen or heard of our small but talented class. However, we have turned out to be a class well represented in sports, music, art, and the social activities of the school. In january 1923, forty-two of us entered Swissvale High. Our hrst president was Bill Reynolds who faithfully worked and served us until our junior year when the honor was turned over to Don Madigan. But 1 am prcgnsssing too rapidly. In our Sophomore year we held a party in Room 5, where everyone enjoyed himself playing such games as Farmer in the Dell , '1X?7ink , and Drop the Handkerchiefn. In our junior year we concentrated all our energies on the Prom , It was a very elaborate affair cf heliotrope and light green, and satisfied not only ourselves but the honor guests, the Senior Class of january, 1926. Now cur Senior year is ended. It has been a busy and eventful one. Our long- looked-for rings arrived, exams passed over us without fatality, the senior play set a new standard in histrionic achievements, the Prom left us breathless, and class night and Commencement with nothing more to be desired. In closing we wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to the Faculty and members of the Swissvale School Board. We also give our best wishes for the success and happiness of the june Class of 1927. Lois Schultz '27. Il0l 1927 + THE SWISSVALIAN 4 1927 GEORGE R.

Pepys and all subsequent diaristsj ' January 21, 1927:- To the town High School, where I did see Wedding Bells presented by the young folks who are soon to juit the place. The matter of the farce pertained to one Reggie Carter who was visite by his divorced wife, on the day before his proposed marriage to Marcia Hunter. Then there was much ado. Spencer Wells-a butterfly friend-aims to help but he goes amiss at it. The fiancee has het mind upon one raving poet, Douglas Ordway, showing again how foolish men can be when the fair sex is con- cerned. The divorcee very ingeniously and sweetly revives Reggie's interest in her, leaving Marcia to a life of poetic rapture. She seemed to show great signs of relief, I thought. The servant parts were well done, one japanese furnishing much amuse- ment with his ill-tuned Christian Hymns. I find that they are using new scenes and new lights which is a blessing. The play wherein there was much mirth but no great matter else, done, I did meet several acquaintances, then fed upon a savory hot dog and home in my Ford. Cast Reginald Carter . . . ........ ....

Instructed in the right and wrong To do our best or do it not, And so, though shy at first in school We learned to love it more and more And sorrowed when vacation came That ended nineteen-twenty-four. Second Year 1925 Our Sophomore year flew like the first 'Twas over 'fore it had begun And while we studied very hard Our party furnished lots of fun. 'Twas here we gained distinction too As athletes and artists should ' And with the talents that we had We served our school as best we could. Third Year 1926 As upper classmen we were proud And really had a right to beg We won the track and wrestling cups And held them up for all to see. Our prom was of the very best, Our play exceeded all before We studied, labored without rest And ever onward up we bore. Fourth Year 1927 At last our senior year had come Our goal realized from three years past And of our class that had begun One-third remained until the last Our play and class night were enjoyed, The dance made all of us so glad. But now our last few days have come And happy hearts have turned to sadg So, since our final year is gone The last to be in Swissvale High The last to serve the school we love And shout her praises to the sky, We say to you who stay with her And you who here have just begun, Protect the school with all your might And fight for her as we have done. l36l 1927 4- THE SWISSVALIAN .5 1927 Senior Closing Out Sale We, the senior class of 1927, now about to pass for the last time through the portals of Swissvale High School hold this auction to rid ourselves of these things which we believe we will no further use in the world to come. The gavel sounds upon the block and the auctioneer's voice is heard: Sold to the man in the brown derby. The next bargain to be knocked down to you will be Sarah Seitz' attraction for a certain Sophomore. Come now, who bids? One here, another, over there, any more? Going-going-gone to Greta Berquist. All right, folks, next is Ralph Peterson's quietness. That should find a quick sale. What! no other bidders? Sold, but to a senior. Oh, I see Babcock bought it in for Rus- sel Beeman. Fine, that's the spirit, seniors. Leave a gift to posterity. ' I-Iere's Florence Schott's attendance record. Who bids? What! No bids. Well, Florence how about it? Let's donate it to Lib Pollard. Next Albert Anderson's taking ways. Sold at once to, ah, whom? Oh, the treas- urer of the junior Class. Well, here's Howard Long's managerial ability. How much are we bid? No others. Sold to Bertram Miles at Zc. Ah! here we have Dot Hill's clever jokes. What say, let's just turn them back to Francis Watt. K Next is Grace Coulter's basket-ball prowess. Well, seniors, let's donate that to Mrs. Whittaker to use as she sees fit. Here we have Gordon Gregory's modern interpretation of Hamlet. Bid up juniors. This will be better than a Latin pony. Going-gone to Miss Piper with all stage rights. She intends to make it into a new play, I suppose, since it is so far from the original. All right, here you are, Ellen jean Parson's drawing ability. Bids going up any more? Going-going-gone to Earle Patterson. Next, Herman Balbach's Latin marks. One here, over there another, come on higher. Going-going-gone to Dick Fisher. Next, Geraldine McMinn's hall parking privilege donated back to Mr. Young. Here you are, you underclassmen! Room 10's knowledge of Miss Dia and how to get around her facquired through three strenuous yearsj. Well, room 10, let's be gen- erous and leave it to her next yearls report room. Here's the Allen trophy, won three times by the graduating class. No bids will be accepted. Classes desirous of obtaining it are advised to consult this class as to the secret of winning it. Next Roy Connor's number elevens equipped with a pair of Melvin Nelson's heel plates. Room 3 bids these in as a present to Mrs. Petrie, to be installed upon Harry Zimmerman so she may know his whereabouts. Uncalled for witticisms in physics by Huber, Adams, and Gorham have previously been bid in with all rights by Mr. Roese as protection against their recurrence next year. Lastly we give and bequeath to the Junior class of Swissvale High School the keys to Senior liberties and the upholding of the honor of the school. l37l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN 1927 l33l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN 4 1927 I 2. 5 -1 5 6 W 8 9 no ll. 12. 13 1-1.

The scene of the play was laid in a country hotel at Matasquam, Conn. The plot was to force Abner Ketchum, a country miser, to sell his Strawberry Hill property which john Bruce, a wealthy New Yorker was planning to develop into pottery manufacturies. A very in- teresting situation occurred and the property was finally bought through Bruce's em- ployes of New York. All the parts were well played and the cast as well as the audience spent a very enjoyable evening. Without a doubt a large part of the success of the play was due to the untiring efforts of the coach, Miss Lucile Long.

Exhibition The Gym Exhibition on March 18 served as a fitting climax of the winter sports season. The Girls and Boys performed before one of the largest audiences ever assembled in our gym. Some of the high lights of the Exhibition were the Indian club drill by the Junior and Senior Girls, the Wand Drill by the Upper Class Girls and the Dumb-bell Drill by the Fresh- men girls. The three wrestling bouts were exciting, even if they were crooked, and afforded the spec- tators many thrills. The tumbling made us quite dizzy and we were all taken with the good performance of Bananas . The girls' dances were very pretty to look at and were a proof that Mrs. Whitaker and the girls had spent many hours in perfecting them. Finals are often the best part of a performance and the finale of the Exhibition was no ex- ception. It was an impressive sight. The entire performance, taken all in all, reflected much credit on the dear old school. Charles Hewitt.

Some of the most familiar faces were absent, but there were new ones to take their places, Could you tell the new ones from the others? Yes, indeed! Why the poor things actually looked rather frightened, just as you did when you came. - Remember? First they were ushered into the auditorium, and then assigned to report rooms. They were just beginning to get acquainted when chapel was announced and like the good sports they are, the freshmen, hid their reluctance and marched gravely in amid ap- plause and shouting from upper-classmen, mostly sophisticated sophomores. One group was missing though. No one had sent for Mr. Smith's protegees, who, you may well believe, were glad of that oversight. A few weeks afterward came nominations for class officers and with the help of the class sponsor, Miss jahnig, the following officers were elected: Arthur Tenet, Mary Murray, Scott Gardner and Myra Sepp. Time elapsed with nothing until the party, at which time we broke into the school's social world. The result was a big success. On March hrst we were entertained in chapel by a comedy written by Margaret Grande and portrayed by that clever person with the help of Mildred johnson, Ellen Bailey and Dorothy Argall. The class has shown marked and diverse ability in the fact that there are honor roll students with Charles Wertz, james Halferry and Grace Wegner heading the list and athletes such as Ruth Edgar, Martin Groat and Earl Kastler. Furthermore, you find freshmen in junior and senior boys' glee clubs, art club and wrestling contests. As this, our first year, draws to a close we feel that we have made a good beginning, and we intend to improve it to the utmost, in showing of just what the class of '30 really consists.

He was mistaken for a Freshman and was most emphatically told to know is p ace. Sept. 24 Won our first game! The Stadium was opened for a contest with Munhall and the crowds and cheering certainly were consistent with the playing. Sept. 28 This morning in chapel Dick McCloy attempted to acquaint his audience with a Chopin waltz. Had his thoughts been given voice, I am sure an undue amount of profanity would have been audible. Sept. 30 Mon Dieu: I can scarcely stroll along the halls any more without colliding with some Frosh. Oct. 2 The heretofore unconquerable was defeated today, for the Westinghouse squad crumpled beneath our boys. We all attended and howled like Kamantchee Indians. Oct. 4 I am sure Cicero never attempted to deliver Orations after having yelled as I did Saturday. The whole class resembles a chorus of fog horns. Oct. 9 Again we sailed the sea of success this afternoon. The cause of our elated spirits was a scoreless tie with Union. The referee tried to suppress us by calling it a scoreless tie but we know. Oct. 12 Mlle. Dia's French classes should encounter no difficulties in attempting some of those new yells Ned Cornelius has introduced.

Oct. 22 Our series of victories in football, however, culminated this afternoon at Duquesne. Despite the defeat we were very optimistic and blamed the weather. Oct. 26 This idea of a circus launched by the faculty will certainly prove a harmless ex- haust for some of us. Oct. 28 Doris Eades rendered Herr Kreisler's Liebesfreud in Chapel this morning.

Forty boys, the largest squad on record, immediately were assembled and began to train for the work they had before them. And work it was, considering the strength of theteams scheduled. But, under the able tutoring of our coach and the leadership of Captain Cappezutto, they were soon formed into the strong and enduring machine, which was to carry the blue and gold through so many victories. The honor of being the first team to realize our worth fell to Munhall. And realize it they did along with the overcrowded grandstands at the home stadium, who, assisted by three newly decorated cheerleaders, yelled themselves hoarse until Hnally rewarded with a 21-0 victory. . The next team to fall before our terrible onslaught was Westinghouse. Paulie's 100 yard dash was responsible for the only victory that we have ever taken from them. Westinghouse scored by blocking a kick, but could not follow up as we had done by a point after a touchdown. This memorable incident will live long in the minds of those who saw it and in' the trophy case we have the bacon to further remind us, with a bril- liant 7-6 painted upon it. The following week was indeed a depressing one on account of the loss of Warner, Hultgren, and Campbell by the new eight-semester ruling. These men were the strength of our defense and many believed the loss of these boys would spell defeat at the hands of Union. But with true Swissvale High School courage we battled them to a scoreless tie although twice narrowly missing a score. Oct. 28. Avalon at Avalon, read the schedule. And Avalon at Avalon usually being an easy game we decided that it would again be the same. And it was. Those loyal and ardent school supporters that emigrated there in force were finally presented with 7-0 victory. Alas and also alack for the next battle, not being used to water polo we lost the game on account of the poor condition of the field at Duquesne 6-0. This insult was paid for dearly the next Thursday. It was a cold, crisp day and the ground resembled in many ways a large flat brick pile. But the elements were in our cheering section evidently for we came out victoriously with the score board reading 10-0, Adams being responsible for a long and beautiful drop kick that practically settled the argument. On to Wilkinsburg! It has not yet been decided whether this defeat was due to our luxuriant entry in taxis or to Wilkinsburgs peculiar talent for adding up points to the scoreboard when no one is looking. At any rate we were counted out to the score of 19-0. QContinued on Page 521 l50l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN 4 1927 Q S ..J -5 Q P l A v C la Iill C' vu 5 T3 T: U E fs Q- :Q E.

Besides the squad and Coach Heverly, there were students, alumni, members of the faculty, members of the school board, and townspeople present. After the delicious repast speakers were introducd by Mr. Gregory, the toastmaster. The Rev. R. L. Hutchinson spoke first. He was followed by Dr. Carlson, Freshman foot- ball coach at the University of Pittsburgh, who spoke on Ideals and Their Achieve- ment. Mr. Young, Mr. Kelso, members of the school board, alumni, represented by Andrew Soyak, and other well-wishers also spoke. Mt. Zimmerman, in behalf of several of the Swissvale business meng namely, Mr. Frankle, Mr. Nied, Mr. W. G. Mockett, and himself, presented the school with an order for one dozen football blankets. This backing, both financial and spiritual, was thankfully received. Coach fDocj Haverly after a short talk presented the awards. Adams, Hult- gren, Warner, Campbell, Hoffman, Capt. Capezutto, and Tener received gold foot- balls for having earned two or more letters in that sport in their senior year. White- head, Murphy, McTiernan, Hoovler, Gorham and Cramer received letters. Capt. Capezutto, in behalf of the squad, presented Doc Heverly with a fraternity pin in recognition of his work in putting out one of the best teams Swissvale ever had. William Reynolds, in behalf of the squad, presented Capt. Capezutto with a pen and pencil set and his senior class ring, in recognition of his leadership and hght in the preceding season. Manager Reynolds then presided at the election for the 1927 captain, john White- head being unanimously elected. This ended the banquet and also the high school football career for nine of this year's squad. Richard Tener '27. FOOTBALL, Continued Another beautiful morning resembling spring much more than winter supplied a fitting background for our final triumph of the year. Thanksgiving day indeed witnessed one of the greatest conflicts of the year at the Edgewood stadium. It was also a battle for distinction between out new band and that of Edgewood. Ours, of course, won. The game, however, was not so easily won. At the end of the first half the setting appeared to be pretty black for Swissvale. But Edgewood could not win after the humil- iation of last year and they did not. The Blue and Gold was parked dangerously neat Edge-wood's goal post when the final whistle blew announcing the end of the game and proclaiming a 6-0 victory for us. Thus one of the greatest seasons in our history was brought to a close which we account mainly to the bulldog courage of the squad and the untiring efforts of Coach Heverly. l52l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN + 1927 Wrestling This year the wrestling team entered its third season with high hopes for a suc- cessful one. After the seniors won the Interclass meet with the final score of Seniors 11, juniors 10, Sophomores 10, Freshmen 5, the boys started down to work and soon formed a first class wrestling team. Ted Cramer was elected captain, who, by the way. makes a most efficient one. In their first meet with Dormont March 11, at home, they ran into a little hard luck, the score being 20-13 against them, The following is the result of the meet: l05alb. Class -Stitt of Dormont threw Henderson of Swissvalleg time 2:12. 115-lb. Class-Captain Murphy of Dormont threw Dunsworth of Swissvale: time 1:25. 125-lb.

However, they were by no means discouraged, but instead dove into harder work with the result of beating Dormont two weeks later, March 25, on their Hoof, the score being 13-11. The following is a summary of the meet: 105Alb Class-Stitt of Dormont gets the decision over Bach of Swissvale. 115-lb Class-Dunsworth of Swissvale threw Captain Murphy of Dormont by agreement. 125-lb.

Most of the games were well played with close scores. Fach of our three league defeats were inflicted by one point margins. Our success was unquestionably due to the lighting spirit of the whole squad and the excellent support given by the student body. At the end of the season we were in third place in Sec- tion lll, having won seven games and lost three. The Basketball Banquet was held at the Seventh Ave. Hotel on March 12, the entire squad being present. After a very appetizing dinner a short program was given. Mr. Young gave a talk on High Schools and Athletics . Dick Tener pre- sented Coach l-leverly with a picture in recognition of his faith and loyalty during the season. This was followed by the presentation of awards by DOC. l-leverly. Gold basketballs were given to Dick Tener and Don Adams while Patterson, Chapman, Scherer, Campbell and Manager Long received letters. The program ended with the election of Frank Scherer as next year's captain. l54l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN + 1927 Girls' Basketball 1927 If success were measured by the number of points made in a season s playing perhaps the girls' basketball team would not be in the lead, but if considered from a standpoint of benefits derived, we feel sure that Swissvale would be at the top. Every team has a year in which they must pay the price and we believe that this was Swissvales, due to the fact that they had to deal with practically a new group of players. However, if this is ours. Letters were Mrs. Miss Miss Miss Rachel Greer ,, Dorothy Lee ..

' Last year when Doc Heverly issued a call for candidates there were a numher of promising men among those who turned out. Although Swissvale did not win any meets it can be said that 1926 was the best season track has ever enjoyed here. The Inter-Class meet was won by the juniors which speaks well for the 1927 season. For the First time in the history of the school Swissvale placed in the Carnegie Tech and Pitt meets. ln the Tech meet, in the class relay, the team won second honors, while in the Pitt meet Dick Fisher won second place in the javelin. The team made a very good showing in the East Borroughs and the Schenley-Union-Swissvale meets, winning several places in each. ln individual point scoring james Hoovler and Bus Ayres were high and these are two men who will he missed very much this year. This year the team should make a still better showing as there vsill he several letter men hack as well as some of the more developed underclassmen. The chief desire of this year's team is to win the East Burroughs meet and all efforts will be directed towards it, The 1927 schedule is: April 25 . .... Ylfilkinsburg May lvl .. .............

We girls in the Senior A class organized it but we thought it would be much jollier to have the Senior B girls mem- bers too, so we invited them to join us. Their initiation meeting was an informal tea which proved such a social success that we decided to entertain our mothers, the faculty and others at teas throughout the year. The real aim of the club though is not to perfect us in the art of tea drinking, but to support girls' activities in the school and to promote a more friendly, big sisterly spirit among all the girls of Swissvale high. The Booster Club The Booster Club of Swissvale High School, organized in 1925-26, is still carrying on its good work. The purpose of the club is to boost and further all school activities. The sale of the season athletic tickets was well managed by them this year. The club held a dinner and get-together meeting in the gym for the purpose of closer relationship and understanding between the students and teachers. It was a great success. The Band Few are the organizations that deserve their space in this book more than the band. Though its work has been mostly in quality this year, we have seen enough of it to appreciate it greatly. The first proud appearance of the band was at the Clairton football game where I am sure it had no small influence in the outcome. We next heard from it at the Circus, where it again won honors. A great amount of credit for the success of this organization is due to Miss Hamilton who has reared it from its infantile state into the position it holds now. We sincerely hope that next year the bushel will be removed and the light allowed to shine forth in great brilliancy. Robert McCall, '28. l57l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN L- 1927 The A. I. D. Club The A. I. D. club, through the wise and helpful supervision of Miss Thomas, continued to ascencl the heights of success this year as apparent by the posters for the plays, the operetta, and especially the circus. The club not only made posters for the circus but also changed sheets of unbleached muslin into elephants, horses, giraffes, antl every other conceivable or inconceivable sort of aniifal. lfach year the club aims to achieve some new objective. This was accomplislied this year in the form of tall-is on foreign countries given in chayel, anal the Art lfxhi- bition given by the stutlents at the lirst of the year. Another enterprise was the slitles on Class nigglit which were in reality some of Toni Shanes cartoons. The exhibition was the open nie:-ting for the year, while the regular nieetings were usually fornial vvitli some kintl of contest to create interest anti develop ability.

Our paper. the first issue of which appeared in the fall of 1925. has, under the able leader- ship of Miss Rae Tenant become firmly established. The staff has devoted itself to improving each issue until we have. as a result, the Valistic of today, one of the finest and most complete high school papers in this district. One of the most striking features of the Valistic is that it is not the property of the uppers classinen- --it belongs to all the students. Contribtitions are as welcome from one source as another Wthey are judged by their real worth. We feel that the Valistic is a permanent fixture in the Swissvale High Schoolfthat it is here to stay because it has endeared itself to the heart of every sttident, as well as the teachers and townspeople. So. in closing we say that students may come and students may go, but the 'Valistic' lives on forever. it-ii 1927 - THE SWISSVALIAN + 1927 Drama Club OFFICERS Evelyn Cropp .... ........... ........ P r esidenr Thelma Dowling ., ,,,, Vice-President DOH Madigan ....... ....... S ecretary Robert Zimmerman ,.,, , , ,Treasurer The Drama Club, though one of the newest clubs to be formed, is now firmly es- tablished and one of the leading organizations of the school. The programs are always enjoyable and serve to keep up the interest of the club. They are devoted to the discussion of the lives and work of famous actors and writers. A novel way of responding to roll call, by the use of the name of a play, actor, or writer is employed. The members of the club learn much of dramatic value by the discussions and criticisms of the plays presented in Pittsburgh. The club is greatly indebted to its sponsor, Miss Sulzbacher, for her work in making it a success.

Our Freshmen and other recruits have proven very helpful. We have two periods each week for practice, consequently we have had time for the preparation of a larger repertoire. We have played for all the regular school events. We also went to the Ladies G. A. R. Home and played for one of their festivities. We are now preparing for the junior and Senior plays, which will soon be given. The membership this year consists of Dick McCloy, pianist, who has succeeded Doris Eades and Dorothy Braun who graduated at Mid-Year. The violinists are Cedric Chapman, Edwin Price, Lillian Bremner, Germaine Sorin, Bob McCranor, George Nord- strom and Herbert Foote. Our sax player, Allen Divers, is still with us and puts plenty of pep in our group. We also have three trombone players, Martha O'Hare, Grant Bailey, and Bob McCall. Our trumpeters are Oscar Fyler and Warren Nupp, who lills in as pianist on some occasions. Emmett O'Hare is now with us, playing his clarinet. We are still under the direction of Miss Carrie Hamilton who has done much to make the orchestra what it is. She has also started the boys and girls in the grade schools and with this training which they will receive there, they will be better fitted for the places they are to fill in the High School, so we are looking forward to happy and prosperous times for the next year and for years to come. Cedric I.. Chapman '28, E651 1927 + THE SWISSVALIAN 4 1927 GLEE CLUB X As we know, everything at Swissvale High is marching steadily forward, and the Glee Club is not behind the rest. The work for this year began with a performance at Teachers' Institute in the fall, and after this the club settled down to a long siege of practice for the annual operetta. The selection chosen this year was different from any of the others so far, the action taking place in japan. Both setting and costumes were delightfully dainty and charming. The story of Miss Cherry-blossom deals with the romance of an American girl who, owing to the death of her parents, is ignorant of her identity and has been brought up by a quaint old Jap who plans to marry her to a rich native politician. Just at this point a party of American visitors appear on the scene, and one of the men falls in love with Cherry. Of course numerous difficulties arise, but jack overcomes them and in the end everyone is happy. The cast was as follows: Miss Cherry-blossom ....................., ..... F lorence Keiblet Kokem, het supposed father .......... ...William Reynolds John Henry Smith, in love with Cherry ...... ....... R oy Connor Henry Foster jones, a friend of Smith's ........ ..... B ertram Miles Horace Worthington, a New York stock broker .... ..... G rant Bailey James Young, Worthington's secretary ....... .... V iCt0r Krwrr jessica Vanderpool, XVorthington's niece .... .... B ernice Altman Togo, a Japanese politician .................................... James Hoovler The next appearance of the club was at the Mid-year commencement. Many of the most valuable members graduated at this time, including Doris Eades, the pianist. However, both the Sophomore and Freshman classes promise well for the future, and it is hoped that this organization will continue to improve, in spite of its recent losses. On March 24th, the school was entertained in chapel with a selection of Beethoven's, which was well rendered, and much enjoyed. The activities for the year will close in June when the club will furnish music for the spring commencement.

Melvin Nelson '27, l63l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN + 1927 Chemistry Club The Chemistry Club, one of the most interesting and beneficial organizations in the school, assembled this term for the first time on October 9, 1926. Since then it has accomplished much work and covered many and various subjects relating to its branch of science. The object of the club is to get its members interested in chemistry and applying its use to every day life. This object is quite a needful one since few students put the theoretical knowledge of their text into practice. Under the excellent guidance of Mr. Baily, they have traveled far toward their goal. One of the reasons for the success of the organization is the extreme efficiency of its officers. They are: Earl Patterson .... ...... P resident Melvin Nelson . . . ....

They are the members of a new secret organization, which has recently originated in the school. It met for the first time in Mr. Ritter's office on November 15, and elected Charles Young, son of Mr. and Mrs. Young, President, Sam- ug' Smith, first cousin of Pocohantas' shiek, Vice-President, Mr. Roese, prominent Broad- way fiorist, Treasurer and Rae Tenant, millionaire landlady of the Sherman Block, Secre- tary. So you see the club is made up of many outstanding figureheads. The club adopted the name of Fa-Cul-Tee, which implies Flunk'em, Can'em and Treat'em rough-their par- ticular line of work. As the formation of the club is quite recent, it is yet to be seen what they will dog but we expect much work from them, especially nightwork. A regular meeting is held every once in awhile, out in front of Greenbetg's Drug Store in order to make life more miserable for the student body. l73l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN + 1927 -....,.i1-f-- XX ll Kid Party It was exactly two days before Christmas and our worthy seniors in quest of the Ponce De Leon lost fountain of Extreme Youth , perambulated into the gym and held a merry be yourself but don't crawl party. Miss Dia acted as motherly matron and was assisted by Mrs. Petrie whose attire suggested an ultra modern flapper or a shortage on goods. Although bloomers and gym pants were the predominating articles of clothing, all varieties of children's wear were represented. Entertainment was furnished by a cute little child, alias Don Adams, whose suspenderbass voice was pleasing to their jazz tor- tured ears. The girls of the party formed a quartette and rendered a few selections. Their singing was pronounced a howling success but they were requested to refrain from any more noise. The feature event of the evening was a football game between the mem- bers of the Senior A and B classes, the huddle system being employed by both teams. Time began to drag and the paternal Mr. Young sent them home in time for the bedtime story. Although nothing stronger than water was served it is interesting to note that about ten members of the party forgot to change their clothing that night and came prancing into school next morning only to be confronted by Mr. Young, who generously donated to each offender a D in conduct. l74l 1927 THE SWISSVALIAN 4 1927 !' W Track Team To ye who insist on coming to school every morning on the twenty-nine and a half past eight express, we do most heartily dedicate this bit of boloney. It is doubtful whether a faster group of athletes could be assembled than those that appear every morning at Mr. Youngs office seeking that little hard to get, can't be got pink slip. Every morn- ing it's the same thing. The eight thirty bell starts a stampede that is rivaled only by the French Revolution, It is a good sight for bad eyes to see some of our 200 pounders such as Miller step off the 100 in 9 seconds flat and Adams broad jump about 50 ft, which is the distance between his bedroom and the school. And then there is Warhorse Cramer who is said to have covered the mile in three minutes. These are only a few of the hundreds of Boy Wonders that make up our Track team each morning. The boy wonders during the past year were only late about 500 times but they are hoping for a better score next year. U51 THE MEYOW RED HOT SWISSVALE, PA. NO CENTS FOOTSMALL BANQUET The foot-small team, school- board, members of the faculty and fellow clash-mates were entertained by the Athletic Association at a band-quit given in the High School Gym, Thursday evening, De- cember 4, 1926. A delicious golf course dinner was served and our boys spent most of their time in howling more . The color scheme was black and blue, decorating being done by members of the op- posing teams, and entertain- ment furnished by the aroma of Vick's slave. Robert Mc- Craner was post-master in place of George Eadie. Talks were furnished by the Nuf Ced Credit Co. Im- mediately after Doc. Heverly presented letters to members of the farce-city, Captain Frank Capezzuto presented Heverly with an ice cream cone, and Heverly in return gave Frank the cone, explain- ing that he did not like wa- fers. Manager Reynolds con- sumed everything including the chair, and nominations for next year's Captain followed. A most worthy and promising mane-Harry Zimmerman- was elected. POPULARITY CONTEST The excitement during the last election of the most popu- lar student in Swissvale High School far surpassed that of any previous year. The in- tense interest in the election was undoubtedly due to the candidates running. Clarance Mander due to his ability to cook, was endorsed by the Girls' Club while Dorothy Nelson was chosen by the boys as his opponent. Miss Nelson, owing to her popu- larity with the boys was looked upon as a sure win- ner but the girls conducted an extensive vamping cam- paign and induced many of the weak-hearted boys to vote for Mander. But, nevertheless. when the votes were counted the election turned out to be a tie, neither candidate being elected. A re-election will be held in the near future. BARNUM LOSES PARTNER Our beloved alchemy in- structor has at last returned to the fold. We welcome him as we missed him-enthusias- tically. After his many hair- raising experiences he declares that he is glad to get back. He even states that he was never all there--but kept thinking of us. My home- sickness was kept ever before me, declares our hero, since my position of training the wild animals reminded me so much of room 8. Other fitting positions held by our instructor included the training of gorillas a n d bearded ladies, and acting as official barker. He made a special success of the latter it seems. All my success as a barker or all that I had ever hoped to have I owe to my noble chemistry class, he declares, especially to Mel- vin Nelson, McKibben, and Capezzutof' GLEE CLUB SINGS FOR MUTE SCHOOL Our night-in-gales have at last been appreciated. Yes sir, wishing to do more damage after singing for and decreas- ing the enrollment of the G. A. R. home by one-half the songsters turned their at- tention toward the Mute School where they were warm- ly welcomed as part of the Pittsburg Zoo. The club claims their program to be an abso- lute success since only those who could hear slightly had to be carried out. People of the municipalities of Wilkins- burg, Braddock and Muckel- rat also admit that the pro- gram was good although riot calls were turned in in each of these towns on account of it. One of the most popular numbers sung was composed by 'William Gardner '29 and is entitled Where the Lazy Daisies Grow. The Glee Club was thanked heartily for their program and were asked to come back again soon in- side of the next 300 years. When they had left 'tis rumored that the school unan- imously voted that they had something to be thankful for after all. So you see we are very proud of our little song birds. He also declares that it was due entirely to his beauty and straight forwardness which are ever in evidence in the school, that made him a junior part- ner in the show. The animals also assure us of this. HONOR ROLL From the reports of the last six weeks Knot reviews on Eleanor Glynnj thirteen honor students with the average of 30 or below receive scholastic mention. We certainly wish to commend these intellectuals on their fine showing amid such keen competition. In fact the office reports a low supply of red ink due to th'e close battle for supremacy in these honored places. However, those to receive their gold dumbbells this year are: Seniors Juniors Cyril Huber Herbert Warner Dean McKibben Thomas Oster Russel Beeman Sophomores Freshmen Walter Taylor Charles Wertz Phillip Farr William Gardner john Otto l76l Red Hot THE MEYOW Swissvale, Pa.

High School girls, nowadays, are more at home in the Eng- lish Channel than they are at home studying. But alas the dollar down, a penny a day has gummed the works. We now buy our marbles and football tickets on the install- ment plan, 10 cents down and a penny a year for seventy- five years. What a world! Noah could have told you that. What we need is more bicycles and study periods, less toothpicks and teachers. TIDDLEDYWINKS GAME The annual Tiddledywinks game between the Slobbering Kids and the Bibless Wonders of the Freshman class was played on February 51, at Swissvale High School's New Million Dollar Gymnasium. The game was rather slow and uninteresting as only two men were sent to the Hospital dur- ing the first half so the referee called the game off. The fea- ture of the game was the winking of the two Left Winks which shows that they have had lots of practice. The line- up was as follows. Slobbcring Kids Bibless Wonders LEFT TIDDLEDY R. Connor Dorothy Hill RIGHT TIDDLEDY Treasure Keibler Gordon Gregory MIDDLE TIDDLEDY Cyril Huber Grace Coulter LEFT WINK Marion Myers Geraldine McMinn RIGHT WINK Arleen Heimark Susan Dickson ADVICE TO THE LOVELORN GELEANOR I-IALE Dear Miss Hale: I am a little girl 5 ft. 2, in my early teens. I have golden brown hair, limpid grey eyes and a deliciously turned up nose. Would you consider me beautiful? What is the horo- scope for july 31? Wishing you lots of luck. I remain, ZARAH ZIGHTS Dear Miss Zights: After having studied for a long time I have decided on your horoscope. I think that you have met a tall beautiful boy, with sleek black hair and blue eyes. But beware! He is a very fickle chap, but I think with your help he will get over this trouble. The july 31 are very fast and nimble-witted. Yours truly, GLEANOR HALE Dear Miss Hale: We are two boys in a sub- urb of Pittsburgh and in love with two girls of a neighbor- ing town. Now, Miss Hale, our problem is this although we love these girls dearly, we find it almost impossible to see them because of local girls continually bothering us for dates. We are too kind to break the hearts of these local girls by refusing them. What shall we do?. Wishing you lots of luck, CEDRIC SHANE 8: ALBERT CHAPMAN Dear Boys: The only thing I can ad- vise you to do is to stop go- ing with these girls and take up some other sport. Yours truly, GLEANOR I-IALE WATER POLO TEAM DEFEATED Alas, and also alack for those brave heroes who were mutilated by the Margin of 194-0 last New Years in the New Stadium aquarium. They swam their best. Although many bystanders were heard to say that both teams were decidedly all wet, we are sure that they were only a little. This game, Mr. Young an- l77l nounces, will be the last of its kind sponsored by the high school athletics since it is a rrifie hard on the male enroll- ment. However, it is en- couraging to note that only sixteen of our squad were drowned in that last massacre although Captain Sq uack Knorr did remain alive. As- sistant Coach Beecher also suffered a severe injury in the form of a scratching while flirting with the catfish at the furthest goal post. For those deceased heroes a memorial shaft will be raised next winter in the ten foot water by the nearest goal post when the ice will make this admirable objective possible. The lineup for the last game seems to be: LEFT END Zimmerman Mary Thompson RIGHT END Granberg I-Ielen Dronsfield BACK END Manders Sarah Seitz REAR END McCloy Harry Martin EXCHANGE Edgewood Nit Wit Edgewood.

Hl- BMD . Band This is the band. Band of what? No telling! Anyway it is the best of our school bands. We have the Rubber Band in Mr. Youngs office. It stretches to the high notes easier, but it breaks too soon. Then we have the Hat Band, but it usually goes over the peoples heads. Our Band is a near relation to the orchestra, but the orchestra fmore teh ned, says it takes a lot of brass to even mention this. Yes, and the Band is always blow- ing about it. Miss Hamilton says it will have to stop playing and get down to work. Most of us don't care whether it gets down to work or not, but we wish it would stop playing, It shows it's worth sometimes though. At the football games it drowns out all the peculiar squeaks in the cheering section, and at the same time frightens the opposing team into submission. Edgewood claims that they originated the huddle system when their bunch of babies gathered around to hold each cther's ears at our game. However, the Band promises us that next year will be even more glorious on tintinabulus when they have enlisted the Switch 84 Signal Cor- poration's fire whistle. l73fl Appreciation The Swissvalian Staff wishes to take this opportunity to thank the advertisers who, by their patronage and courtesy, have helped so much to make this annual a complete success.
