PHOENICIAN ’33 T H E PHOENICIAN o f the WESTMONT-UPPER YODER HIGH SCHOOL Westmont, Johnstown, Pennsylvania Published by THE SENIOR CLASS N ineteen Hundred and Tliirty-tliree Foreword In this hour of distress humor is of more vital neccessity than ever before. Humor is a spirit; and it is on the spirit of things rather than on the material things that we have survived these last years. It is with this realization uppermost in our minds that the Phoenician has been com- piled. It is now your duty to banish any sort of spirit other than humor from your mind and turn these pages with an air of jesting. Table of Contents ADMINISTRATION SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN DRAMATICS ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS FEATURES Dedication In order to show our admiration, appreciation, and friendship for a woman, who is devoted whole-heartedly to her work and who has kindled in the hearts of her students a love for biology and nature, we, the Senior Class, dedicate this Phoenician to Miss Elsie D. Canan. THE P H O E N I C 1 A N The History of the School Westmont-Upper Yoder High School The Westmont-Upper Yoder High School is one of the best schools of its size in Pennsylvania. Though it began as a very small common school, it had high educational ideals and athletic standards which have been continuously maintained. In 1916 the Westmont Borough was informed by the Johnstown High School that they could no longer take care of the tuition students. The school board, after consulting Dr. Bcntz, learned that the Upper Yoder district also needed a high school. Consequently, a joint high school was built by Westmont Borough and Upper Yoder Township. The building was completed in 1919, but the officials soon realized that it was not large enough to accomodate the increasing numbers who entered each year. Therefore, eight new rooms, a cafeteria, an auditorium, and gymnasium were added to the original building in 1924. The lack of an auditorium before 1924 did not prevent the dramatically inclined students from displaying their talent. The first dramatics essay was presented on the Mound in 1922 in the Shakespearean play “A Mid-summer Night’s Dream.” Nor did the absence of a “Gym” prevent our ambitious atheletes from playing basketball and football. In 1919 tlie players brought their own suits anil played their home games on the Old Grove floor. Many times the floor was covered with water, but that didn’t hinder the Westmont basketball team. The girls, likewise brought their own elongated black trunks and played on the Grove floor, when the bovs weren’t using it. Football, which started in 1924, was also a makeshift affair in regard to equip- ment. Most of the games were played on the Old Golf Links. After a tussle on this muddv field the players retired to the old Westmont Golf Club showers to regain their lost identity. The first educational routine, which consisted of Science, Algebra, English, Latin, Histoiy, Domestic Science, Mechanical Drawing, and the Commercial Subjects, had T | P II O E N I C I A N jusl as many hardships to endure in its pioneer days as dramatics anil athletics. For instance, in the Biology class, which was held in the small teacher's room, the teacher had to step out in the hall in order to make an opening for pupils to move around. An- other disadvantage that was produced by the lack of sufficient room was having to teach mathematics among the Chemistry materials. 1 oday the school has many dramatic conveniences. Aside from a modernly equipped auditorium and stage which aid a great deal in the presentation of a play, much extra- ordinary talent has been discovered in the student body. These students are capable of portraying both sincerely tragical and extremely humorous situations. For this reason many worth while plays have been produced in recent years. Rece 1 he basketball teams plav on a very smooth floor and are provided with unif •ntlv a new recreation field was completed, which was christened the Price Men orms. moria Recreation field. I his field is said to be one of the best grass gridirons in the state. Encircling this field is an official quarter mile cinder track. In the educational line three courses are offered to the students: Academic, Com- mercial, and General. An academic graduate is very well qualified to enter some of the best colleges of the country. 1 he commercial department developes some exceptional stenographers who would be appreciated in most any office. Those pupils who wish to obtain a good supply of general knowledge to be well equipped to enter everyday living, select the general course. Because of the extensive educational teaching anil physical training offered here many students graduate capable of facing life and its problems squarely. Many have watched this school grow during its short life and have remarked at the advantages of each of its improvements. Along with the rapid growth, it continues to maintain the standards held by the highest of modern schools. Views Around School Property T H E P H O E N I C I A N WESTMONT BOARD Walter H.

Preston Sharp came from Blawnox where lie had served as supervising principal, to till the same position at Westmont. Mr. Sharp began his career in a country school in Hickory Township, Laurence County, and taught there three years. Here, taking care of eighty students ranging in grades from nine to eleven, lie not only taught these students in all high school courses, but also acted as principal, teacher, and janitor. It was from here that Mr. Sharp was transferred to a larger position at Blawnox, thence to Westmont. Mr. Sharp is a graduate of Geneva College where he received his A. B. degree. He has also attained the A. M. degree from the University of Pittsburgh and at present he is working for his Ph. D. degree at the same institution. During Mr. Sharp's term of years in our school, he has promoted three things: good ... , scholarship, good sportsmanship, and good social activities. With these three principal objectives in mind, he has continued in the build- ing ol the ideals and standards set by our community in developing its school system. M r. Umlerwoo ] Mr. C. L. Underwood, principal of Westmont-Upper Yoder High School, began his career as a teacher after receiving his B. S. de- gree at the University of West Virginia and his M. S. degree at Ohio State University. This career was begun at Charleston High School, West Virginia, where he taught in the Science Department and acted as boys’ advisor. Mr. Underwood then received a promotion by trans- ferring his duties from Charleston to Ronceverte, W est irginia, where he served as Principal and Supervisor of Schools. From here Air. Under- wood went as Principal to Moundsville, West Virginia. This position was followed by the one which Mr. Underwood is now occupying as Principal of Westmont-Upper Yoder High School. In Boys’ Club Mr. Underwood has given some inspiring and informing talks on how the young fellows should conduct themselves. During some very trying times. Air. Under- wood has been most cooperative with the mem- bers of the Senior class. P H O E N I C I A N Faculty Mr. C.

PHOENICIAN Commencement Once every year there is that cheerful, happy, gay celebration of a death in the auditorium of our school. It seems rather contrary to tradition for such an institution to celebrate death with so gleeful an attitude. There is something strange ami mysterious about the whole of the matter, for the night of its death has been named and referred to as its commencement. All of us have thought of commencement as the beginning. Commencement means neither an entire death nor a complete beginning. It is true that the Senior class will die, but its members live on as individuals. Thus we have a partial death and a partial birth. hat of these individuals who are to live on? Where will they wander? Their high school career is much like the life of a shot-gun shell. Those many little B-B’s, that have passed through the barrel of the gun as a mass being urged by the powder behind them and kept from wandering by their confinement to the walls of the barrel of the gun, are not unlike that large mass of freshmen who entered the school four years ago. I hey, too, were urged on by a force that was more forceful than gun powder. I hey were kept from wandering by the rules and limits of the high school. Now we have reached the end of the barrel, the end of four years. It is during this trip through the barrel that the B-B receives its momentum and its ability to pierce. We of the Senior Class have been gaining momentum, speed, and ability; soon we shall reach the end of our guiding powers. What does the future hold for us?

In the line of Drama, we made our debut, With the Importance of Being Earnest, A play of romance, intrigue and mirth. Not bad at all, so we guessed. Then came the Junior-Senior Prom, The final farewell fling. We gave (hem all a jovial parting. Aye, Seniors, Of Thee I Sing! But to find out more about our class. Just flip the leaves which ensue There you'll find A Junior s old Scrapbook. Don't let our pictures scare you! George Statler. THE PHOENICIAN A Junior’s Scrapbook Hi-Ho! What a day! Rain. Rain. Rain. If it keeps up. I’ll have to go hack to college in a rowboat to-morrow. Aunt Floozie and Uncle Ezra are gabbing in the parlor. I don’t want to get mixed up in that, if I can help it. Nothing to read but those mushy Heart Throbs’’ magazine that Sis clutters up the house with. Between those things and the beauty shop, she sure is the picture of soulful passion. (Yawn). Well, guess I'll go up to the attic and oil a couple of mouse traps. Creak! Creak! Creak! These stairs are slightly rickety. I wonder who’s been piling all this junk here? That shows how much they miss me when I’m away at school. I was the one who always did the heavy work around here. Now where did I put the oil? I think it was in this big wooden box here. Well, well! Here’s my old scrapbook I had in my Junior year at Westmont-Upper Yoder High. Guess I’ll look through it, just for old time’s sake. Hm-m-m........I wonder how this old newspaper got stuck in here? (Well, Strike me pink)! The Yodler!” What thoughts that brings back! What enthusiasm and work went into those aged sheets of paper! How we slaved over them and felt like walking on air after viewing the results of our labors! Under the direction of “Ed” Kern......buckling down to work.........trying to get someone to write an article was Marie McClintock’s job........asking, pleading......’’any news”.......on and on...... news, news. It begins to trickle in.....to be read, reread, written over, deciphered and what not! Anything to get it in a half readable form for the printer. . . .Editorials scribbled off by Ed” Kern and George Statler.......That humor (?) column fillet! with Jack Ringold’s jokes and Phil Price’s newest installment of Ned Neverfear.” John Werrv’s sports column (we always sent him because he could see a game regardless of how large a crowd there was). Then the last minute rush before the articles left our hands.....enough words? Headlines? What about features? What a time we had getting someone to buy a paper.....Working under the efficient (?) plans of Clarence Hammerle we drove every- one crazy with our relentless drive for sales. Then the proof is back....and another job for the proof readers.....aided by the rest of the staff......all trying to hurry everything up a little....trudging through pouring rain to meet with our advisor. Miss Esenwein, for last minute work...... Ed” Kern rushing the final proofs to the printer .....and up again.......there it was! On Time! When we placed the copies in the hands of the readers we realized the real worth l ehind our work......but when the financial reports came....not so good! Were we down hearted?..........Not us......we just pitched in all the harder. “Get up enthusiasm”........signs everywhere.......con- tests ............................................................................better features.staff and others alike.and we produced results! There it is.....an indelible record of our efforts and worries..that tattered paper. I guess I’ll have to stop dreaming now and get along here. Let’s see, what next? Here are a few masterpieces done in class. I’ll always remember the fun and hearty laughs we had and the wise cracks which were made especially at the expense of Ed 1’ Kern and John Werry. Some of these letters of application! For such jobs as United States label stamper, insane asylum guard, anil many others. Then there were also the notes of sympathy that would have kept in convulsions the person to whom they were sent. Clarence Hammerle was the target for many practical jokes, which kept us in loud guffaws. Those were the good old days! Here’s My “E” masterpiece. We Just Don’t Get Along Suspenders never do what I want them to do. If I want them to stretch, they shrink, and if I want them to shrink, they stretch. If I have a pair of pants that are too short, P II O K N I C I A N and I want to let them down, the suspenders groan obstinately and shrink, pulling my pants up further, so that I have to wear stockings to keep my knees warm. When I’m in public I rely on them, but they always let me down, also my trousers. On a sultry day they rub nicks in my shoulder blades, and in winter they keep sliding down my arms. During the Christmas shopping rush, they start to argue, and get all tangled up, leaving me wiggling around with my arms full of packages. One time when I was giving a speech, Stretcho, the one on my left, let go and slapped me in the face. The other one, not to be outdone, freed itself and whacked me behind the ear. 1 still don't know who carried me out! One wet rainy day thev decided to exercise anil thereupon stretched their full length. . I immediately dashed for the nearest empty barrel. Another time, at a testi- monial banquet which my class mates were giving me, I hooked my thumbs proudly in my suspenders while 1 was giving a speech. Waxing very eloquent, I leaned forward, shouting......“and that, my friends shows that taxes must come down in the near future!” Just then Stretcho anil Snappo both gave way with a “crack!” anil.......well, they must think I’m still under the table! Lately I have been seriously considering buying a belt!” What’s this? the rogues’ gallery? Oh no, it’s only the Junior Class basketball team that represented my class in high school. There is A!” Sobditch and “Lanky” Werry on center, and that fellow tenderly caressing that old basketball is Tom .Captain Whitten. On the back row is “Hams” Hammerle anil “Babe” George who kept all opponents from running up the score. I remember that our record wasn’t so bail, though, for we won eight out of twelve tussles without much exertion. Sniff? Sniff? There’s supper cooking! I’d better make it snappy if I want to go through this scrap-book. Here’s a newspaper article about girl’s basketball. It’s so faded I can hardly read it. “Westmont Girls Conclude Successful Season.” Hm-m-m-m I remember that high powered team consisted chiefly of Junior Lassies, namely Townsend, McClintock, Swank, Lewis, Moran, Hager, Kerr, Watson, and Longwell. The Christmas dance! Well do I remember that cold, wintry night when the gym, all decorated in red anil green crepe paper, the balmy smell of newly cut pine trees, the little twig of mistletoe over the center of the floor.I was almost caught. I can al- most hear that entrancing music. Then the door prizes! I was only three numbers off. I could use that money now! Enough of this musing. I wonder what else is in here. What’s this handsome gilded program pasted to this faded leaf? Why I remember! It’s the east of that exceedingly clever play “The Importance of Being Ernest.” How I laughed at Lyons and Truxal proposing to their respective sweeties, Dodson and Max- well, and what a surprise to find that Barbara Hager had lost Ernest” in a hand bag anil hail wheeled home a perambulator lull of papers] Now, as I look back, the play was pretty good, but what a farce it seemed then! Why in the world did I save this envelope from Herf-Jones Jewelers? Oh, that’s right, my class ring came in it. How proud we all were parading to the office that day to get these sparkling knuckle-rubbers of white gold. It was worth while going to the Christmas Dance just to see hands flashing conspicously to show off the new jewelry. Ac- cording to the Seniors they were too “llashy” (they were just jealous but our understudies, the Freshmen and Sophomores, gazed at them longingly with Ohs” and Ahs” of ad- miration. I’ll never forget how for nearly three weeks my left hand stayed frost bitten as I proudly displayed that ring. Ifell, we sure did have some good times working to-gether back at old Westmont High School.

T II E PHOENICIAN The Private Life of An Imp Virginia Strandquest The Tucker home had just emerged from a rather miserable cold night and its occupants opened sleepy eyes to a snow-whitened world. Mrs. Tucker could be heard nagging her helpless snouse for letting (he furnace go out. Herman, a red-headed imp w itii what seemed to be millions of freckles, sat dejectedly in his blue-striped, outing- flannel pajamas, on the side of his masculine-looking bed, which appeared as though a cyclone had hit it for all the covers were piled up in the middle, and demanded to know what shirt he should wear. In the orchid and Nilegrcen bedroom was a lump of covers in a dainty feminine bed, with a mass of blond curls protruding from the tip and pair of feet at the hot ton. Grade, get up (his minute; it’s half-past eight. This is the third time I’ve called you; you’ll be late for school! clamored her mother as she shook the sleepy girl. ‘Ho-hum! hy can ( I sleep awhile! yawned the sixteen year old piece of humanity as she dangled pink-rayon pajama-clad legs over the side of the bed. Yeh, she was out too late last night with that Sissy Landis! piped in the imp from the other room. Mum, if you don’t make him shut up, I ’ll ! Here, here, children, no more of this. Herman, you attend to your own affairs Hurry down to breakfast! With this, Mrs. I ucker flopped down the steps in a pair of mules that were about a size and a half too large. A clattering of pots and pans was heard from the first floor. A few minutes later Grade glared across the hreadfast table at her red-headed brother and ate in silence until the Imp seemed to be monopolizing the sugar bowl. Mother, that kid s going to have sugar diabetes if he keeps up his eating sugar the wav he does. And I wish he d realize that there are other people in this house be- sides him, she finally said, applying an unusually black look on her disgusted brother. Holy Cats, mum, hasn t a fellow got any rights anymore? he grumbled. If you two warriors don ( keep quiet I m going to explode and then you’ll l e sorry you provoked vour dad to anger. Mark my word? burst out Mr. 'Pucker, with a frown that made his usually jolly face look strange. ‘Don t forget to wear vour arctics (his morning, both of you. added their mother. Both children heaved a sigh. Boy, I d like to lay my hands on the bird that invented arctics, whispered Gracie. As Gracie turned the corner from her home, she saw Kay Jones ahead and caught up to her. As they walked along in the misty snow, they discussed the newest gossip of the high school. By the way, do you have your Algebra done, Kay, asked Gracie. Say, Gracie I ucker, if hail my Algebra done I wouldn't l e going around with such a long look on my face. retorted her friend. Kay, have you seen the new boy that moved into our block? Kay nodded negatively. Well, believe me, he s swell. Sort of a mixture of Clark Gable and Buddy Rogers. ou know what I mean, not quite so he-mamsh as Clark Gable, but yet not so sissvfied as Buddy Rogers. But, boy, he is keen—tall, dark, handsome—broad shoulders—ooo— oo you know! and Gracie sighed in breath-taking ecstasy. I wonder if he 11 start school this morning, said Kay. Gee, I hope so, said Gracie. With this they entered the school house. I o the consternation of the two girls the new Adonis pro veil to be a senior and not in any of their classes. By the time Gracie got to Algebra class she had almost entirelv forgotten him in her fear of being caught not having her problems done. PHOENICIAN T II E “Gracie, what’s the answer to number one in our night work?” asked the chubby Algebra teacher, who was a man of many words and many gestures. After the painful ordeal of delivering her excuse, the teacher burst forth, “If you kids keep this up you’ll drive me bughouse!” Gracie inwardly decided to do her Algebra that night. At noon while walking home, she was picked up by Landis in his 1924 model Ford coupe, and, while rattling along, Gracie learned that Landis knew the new boy and that his name was Klkins Grove. Before they had gone more than a block, they saw Klk himself walking along alone. As Landis hailed him, Elk ran after the ancient auto which had skidded about ten yards belore it came to an abrupt standstill. After Elkins entered the car, Landis introduced him to Gracie. Gosh, he was actually good-looking up close, thought Gracie, and Landis wasn’t even good-looking at a distance. Just as Landis stopped the car in front of Grade’s home to let her out, Herman, the Imp, was standing out in front of the house throwing snowballs at cars. When he saw Landis, he began antagonizing. “Gracie, if you can’t get anv better than that sissv Landis, you’re pretty dumb!’ he bellowed. Grade picked up a snow-ball and threw it, missing the Imp by about three feet. I hen she ran into the house followed by a shower of snowballs. As she entered the door, the odor of fried onions and baked beans greeted her. At the mid-day meal it started. “Gee, mom, you should a’ seen Grade and Landis and Elk, the new boy, in Landis’s car coming home. Gracie likes Landis! Gracie—loves Landis!” Gracie threw her napkin at him, and it landed in the baked beans. I hat afternoon the school decided on having an early spring dance. 1 he date was set for March 21st, the first day of spring. That was almost a month ahead. 1 hat fact made Gracie glad, she had her mind set on going to that dance with Elk. 1 hat evening, Landis asked Gracie to go with him but Gracie, thinking ahead, calmly warned him that he shouldn’t plan so far ahead because you never could tell what would happen the present time and so far into the future. “But ( iracie I— ' stammered Landis. “Now, Lundy, I’ve told you. Be a good boy and don't ask any questions, re- plied the little schemer. I hree weeks passed and still no Elkins asked her to the dance. Gracie began to feel rather uneasy for Elkins had become the most sought-after young male in the school; and she had already bought a charming new gown and the necessities for a dance costume. She would wait about three more days and then she would accept the Loyal Landis s invitation. The next afternoon she saw Elkins and—of all people the Imp, Herman, walking down the alley. As the two parted and the Imp came into the house, Gracie ran upstairs for she didn't want to hear any more teasing. A few minutes later she heard Herman talking in low tones to her mother. Anxious to hear any of her brother’s secrets so she could get even with him, she stood at the top of the steps and strained her ears to hear. “And so, mum, he said that he always thought Gracie didn t want him around and I said that I was sure he was wrong there. Then he asked me if she could dance, and I said ‘Betcher life she can’ But, gosh, mom, he’s sorta bashful . Just then the phone rang. Mrs. Tucker answered it. “Gracie, wanted on the phone,” she called. Gracie fairlv flew down the stairs. About a half hour later the Imp found the bottom of Grades best box of candy on his bed with a note “For the Imp, only, Gracie.” T II K P II () E NICIAN hirst Row {left to right)—Betty Reese, Thelma Price.

PHOENICIAN Fresh man N e w s pa per Extra! Extra! All about conspiracy of Prince John! Read about the trial of the Jewess! Buy a paper, mister, and read about the marriage of the Queen of Love and Beauty to the mysterious knight of the tournament of Ashl y. The fifth period English class have attempted writing articles for their Ivanhoe news- paper, “The Crusader,” from the newspaper point of view. The following articles are extracts from it. BEAUTIFUL JEWESS ON TRIAL FOR SORCERY Early Edition (Special to ‘The Crusader’) Rebecca, lovely Jewess and Daughter of Isaac of York, was placed on trial this morning for sorcery. The maiden was condemned to burn at the stake unless she pro- duced a champion before sunset. As this edition went to press, no champion had as yet appeared. I he trial was held in the courthouse of Templestowe, the preceptory of the Knights I emplars. Lucas Beaumanoir, the Grand Master of the Templars, presided. As Rebecca was called to the stand, she appeared very calm and deliberate in her answers. Many witnesses were called upon, but most of the evidence offered was against the accused. Editorial HAUGHTY NORMAN CHALLENGERS HUMBLED here is the boasted invincibility of our proud Normans? It has met its Waterloo in the superiority of a noble member of the detested Saxon race. Five representatives of the dexterity of the Norman conquerors were compelled to bow before a more skillful antagonist. Those who attended the recent Ashby Tourna- ment recall the skillful horsemanship of the victor. In every combat he proved himself superior to the Normans in the Norman art. I he leaders of the challengers, Brian de Bois Guilbert, appeared to be neither as accomplished nor as good a sport as rumor would have him, for, after a decided defeat, he retired to his tent to stay hidden for the rest of the day’s tournament. Also, unequal to the Saxon was a contemporary of Prince John, Front de Boeuf, who lost a stirrup in (h e encounter. Sir Philip de Malvoisin, either through over confidence or lack of ability, lost in his combat with the Disinherited Knight. Hugh de Grantmesnil probably knew himself to be interior to his opponent, so, when Sir Disinherited evinced an unusual courtesy during the misbehavior of De Grantmesnil’s mount, the Norman declared him- self defeated by the consideration. Complete defeat met Ralph de Vipont in his com- bat. Decidedly outclassed, he concluded the Disinherited Knight's conquests by being violently unhorsed. How does it happen that this Saxon triumphed over some of the most celebrated Normans? Are the Saxons naturally superior in arms or are the Normans becoming indolent and indifferent to the past glories of the race? It may be that the proud Norman race which conquered the Saxons more than a century ago will soon be called upon to guard the prestige of the past, or else make way for a race fast becoming its equal. KING RICHARD S APPEARANCE IN COURT ENDS CONSPIRACY When King Rich aril unexpectedly entered the spacious hall of his castle all the hopes that Prince John be the sovereign of England were frustrated. His followers, who were about to crown him king when Richard appeared, quickly receded in the face of the King’s anger. P II O E NICIAN All the nobles who were in conspiracy with Prince John were duly dealt with. Maurice dc Bracy and Waldemar Fitzurse were exiled; the Malvoisin brothers are to be executed; and Prince John was ordered to go home to stay under the maternal tutelage until he learned the proper behavior due to the King, his brother. Under ordinary circumstance these actions would be termed “high treason.” Thus once again our King Richard shows himself lenient in the punishment of those who would do him wrong. PROMINENT SOCIAL MARRIAGE TAKES PLACE Lady Rowena of Rotherwood was united in marriage with Wilfred of Ivanhoe at high noon today in the great Hall of Cedric of Rotherwood. Prior Aymer officiated, using the ring ceremony. The bride was attired in an exquisite gown of Normandy lace, with the veil her mother had worn when she was married. The couple were .at- tended by very close friends. After the ceremony a very sumptuous dinner was served at the home of the bride in Rotherwood. At this time toasts were offered to King Richard, the noble Cedric of Rotherwood, Athelstane of Coningsburgh, and other noted personages. The couple was the recipient of many beautiful and useful gifts. Lady Rowena anil Wilfred of Ivanhoe will be the guests of King Richard for several days. They will then leave for the Riviera and later visit other parts of France. After June the 28th, Ivanhoe and Lady Rowena will be at home to their friends at the castle of Ivanhoe. Some of the noted guests present at the wedding banquet were: Prince John, Lady Rowland, Lady Edith, Locksley, Isaac of York, and his daughter Rebecca.

But that was only half of the programme. The other half was given at Cochran. T'was the night of the Book Revue and all the participants from this school were assembled in the dressing room. Suddenly... Westmont group wanted on the stage! rang out from the corridor. At once, responded General McGann and one by one the doomed squadrons marched onto the still curtained stage. Then came a brief delay which the members of the tableaux occupied by talking and the speakers by swallowing, clearing their throats, anil taking last minute glances at their speeches. Generals McGann and Greer paced to and fro giving helpful hints to the participants, fixing beards, pinning hides et cetera. Ready? —All the lights on the stage went out. Suddenly the curtain split from top to bottom and fell away to either side. A probing finger of light wavered—and then pointed accusingly at the first scene— The Cairn.” The eminent Joseph Williams stepped forward and began trying to explain why we were there and what his scene tried to convey. Finally he gave up and slank into the shadows along the side of the stage. The finger of light seemed satisfied however for it glared at the next tableau, Oral Tradition in which—after a detailed harangue by the honorable Larry Smith, an old story teller—Bill Statler told a crowd of robed natives about Beowulf, an old English hero. The next scene revealed by that accursed spot light was of (wo Egyptians who to use the words of Eddie Smith were carving diligently away in solid rock the oldest of alphabets, Hieroglyphics. The solid rock, we beg to inform the reader, was only canvas, but a real stone mallet was used. The inevitable circle of light moved on and disclosed the next tableau—Pictograph. In this two hideously painted (although harmless) savages were painting pictures on a paper hide. The interpretation (about which the less said perhaps the better) of the tableau was rendered by the author. (Imagine my embarrassment!) T H E PHOENICIAN “A Scrap of Paper’’ SENIOR PLAY A Scrap of Paper: One of Sard oil’s first and best plays. Originally written in French, but adapted to the English and American stage. An insignificant scrap of paper caused all the mischief and merriment. Until its destruction at the end of the play, interest did not lag. Characters Prosper Couramont . .

The inexorable spotlight swept on to the next scene which depicted “Manuscripts” bringing to light a group of charming old monks (in a monastery not a zoo) with Henneke at the “mike.” By this time I believe you know what that “bloomin spot did and the next tableau “Printing”—was discussed by dear old Mock (my home town) with an amazing deficiency of that characteristic “O”. Finally the curtains closed with a reluctant air; and as the members of the cast fell fainting into each other s arms, 1 realized with a heart of glad- ness that we were thru! T H E PHOENICIAN I he Student Council I lie Student Council of Westmont-Upper Yoder High School, as in many other schools, represents democracy. We Americans pride ourselves in our well-organized, democratic government. Democracy is (lie highest of American ideals. Thinking along the same line as our government officials, the members of the Student Council are striv- ing to demonstrate the value of the spirit of democracy among the students of our school. Cooperation, the Student Council feels, is essential in the functioning of any organization. Acting according to the principles of our own government, the Student Council consists of representatives, chosen from the various classes and organizations through- out the school, who meet together to discuss and take action upon any problem which concerns the student body. In the past the Student Council has had charge of the sale of tickets for athletics and it has endeavored to inspire the students regarding athletics. I he present Student Council, under the leadership of Clarence Hammerle as president, is taking steps toward the promotion of democracy. Plans are being drawn up for over- seeing the school assemblies, maintaining order in the lunch rooms, and policing the halls. By these means the council hopes to bring about gradually a democratic spirit among the students, finally abolishing the so called “teacher police' spirit. Thus the Student Council has set out to perform a great task, that of intelligent self-government among students. I he support of the entire student body is essential for this new ex- periment. P H O E NICIAN Phoenician Stall In the spring of the year I9o2, the present senior class were preparing to piece to- gether the largest puzzle of their four year high school course. They were about to take over the editing ( 1 the Phoenician. As .all the plans were made that spring for obtain- ing the puzzle, the piecing together was to commence at the opening of school in Septem- ber, 1932. Before this puzzle could be purchased, it was essential that a supervisor be chosen, one who was well-informed on the matter. For their leader, the class chose Edward Replogle, who was assisted bv .Margaret Hoerle, Mary Eouise Hannan, and Donald Hamilton, all under the guidance of Miss McCann. Edward assembled his workers according to their formerly expressed desires, anil then the staff of workers de- cided upon Mr. Andrews for their photographer. The puzzle was ready to be laid on the table. 1 he editorial stall discovered the first piece which fit, the dummy of the year book was drawn up and completed. Mr. Andrews utilized his time, and fit in this puzzle a number of pieces. He photographed the seniors individually, and then con- cluded the taking of the group pictures with the aid of Merrill Sager, the photographic- editor. Since the members of the class were not to be outdone, they began to work vigorously anil ambitiously, each aiding in the completion of (his puzzle by writing the articles assigned to him. I he editorial staff, Miss McCann, and any senior who was eager to gaze upon the result of his hard work, continued to add pieces by reading over the articles already contributed. The next to the last step towards finishing this picture was accomplished by the staff typists who prepared the articles for the printer. To complete this puzzle, or to deliver the 1933 year book, was in the hands of the printer. I oward the middle of May, the seniors gazed a little bewildered at this completed puzzle which spelled the word “Humor.” The Phoenician for the year 1933 with its theme Humor was ready for publication. THE PHOENICIAN The Yodler Stall The whole world has experienced many drastic changes during this last year. In- numerable organizations have been affected. Nor can our school newspaper boast that it has experienced no alterations. For it has been cramped, unfortunately, in a financial way. The number of publications lias been limited. Kditor-in-chief Edward Kern, assisted by a large and competent staff of ambitious Juniors has hail to exert special energy and ingenuity to make each issue bear the stamp of merit. Bearing in mind the difficulties with which the staff has had to contend, it is re- markable that it was able to make the strides it has. “The Yodler” has not only been kept up to par, but it has in several ways excelled the publication of former years. The start has become “editorial conscious.” In fact, The Yodler” has been fortunate enough to have several editorials published in papers of schools with whom it carries on exchange. Feature stories have also been improved. Some of the simplest happenings have been turned into clever and enjoyable reading. I hen the jokes probably the most read section of a school newspaper. The Staff is to be congratulated, for the jokes have been original or at least have been reconstructed so as to be palatable humor. And what is harder for the average person than to “crack” an original wise one”? PHOENICIAN The Press Club In January 1931 the students who had attended (he convention of the Pennsylvania School Press Association at Pittsburgh formed the Press Club of Westmont-Upper Yoder High School. This group framed the constitution which is the basis of this year's or- ganization. Primarily, the purpose of the club is to set up and promote journalistic standards in the school and to promote an active interest in journalism among the students of the school. A certain percentage of the school enrolled limits the membership to twenty active members. The club welcomes freshmen to attend the meetings although they can not join. In October the club elected its officers: Peggy Hoerle, President. Margaret Waters, Vice President. Dan Wertz, Secretary. John Werry, Treasurer. The general purpose of programs is to present theory through talks by outside speakers and to obtain the practice by writing. The various fields of journalism studied this year are the meaning of journalism, the human interest story, the writing up of speeches, and the year book. The officers extended an invitation to the Phoenician and Yodler staffs to hear the talks given by Mr. Krebs, the President and Editor of the Johnstown Tribune, and Mr. Blough, Director of Guidance at Ferndale High School. Mr. Blough described his experiences in editing year books. A scrap book is being kept in which a record of the club’s activity, the student write-ups of the speeches of Mr. Krebs and Mr. Blough, and some clippings from our local paper have been collected. All the work and anxiety that accompanies every new organization has brought the club to the close of a successful year under the leadership of the advisor. Miss Esenwein. T II E P II O E NICIAN Orchestra 1 he blast of a trumpet, the squeak of a clarinet, the screech of a violin, and the heat of the bass drum! W ho could have dreamed that anything worthwhile could he formed from a combination of these four families? Soon after the opening of school, the forty some possessors of these instruments assembled and organized. Before long the individual parts were harmoniously blending in th e compositions of Brahms, Schubert, and Grieg. After several weeks of practicing, the orchestra appeared, on December 19, in a joint concert with hbensburg High School at Ebensburg. The performance proved a very great success anil afforded much encouragement to the orchestra members for later appearances. Later in the season the orchestra furnished musical entertainment at a joint-public meeting in the Westmont Grove. Forensic league work began shortly after Christmas when concentration was centered about the Norwegian Dances,” numbers one and two, by Grieg and Scotch Poem” by Mac Dowell. Having no competition in the Southern County eliminations, March 18, the orchestra was made immediately elegible to compete in the County Contest on April 8. In preparation for this occasion, the group has had in addition to its regular Tuesday rehearsal, several extra rehearsals after school and in the evening. Unbounded appreciation is due iMiss Gray for her ever enthusiastic efforts with this successful group. PHOENICIAN Mixed Chorus Approximately fifty songsters from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes as- sembled, organized and formed, within the first two weeks of school, our present Mixed Chorus. With unbounded enthusiasm, this group rehearsed several times a week, in prepar- ation for the Westmont and Ebensburg joint-concert, on December 19 at the Ebensburg High School. “Now Rest Beneath Night's Shadows” by Isaac and “Hail, Holv Light” by Kastalsky, the Forensic League required and selected numbers, consumed most of the practice periods, beginning, soon after Christmas, in preparation for victory in the Southern County eliminations on March 18th. In addit ion to the large groups, several individuals and smaller ensembles were entered in the forensic Music Contests. Katharyn Watkins represented the school in Soprano Solo with “Morning” by Oley Speaks and “The Robin Song,” bv White. The Alto Solo, “Home, Dear, Home, by Loughborough and “Silvia,” by Oley Speaks was rendered by Sara Margaret Jones. Katharyn Watkins, Roberta McIntyre and Margaret Williams, composing the Girls’ Trio sang “Lo, How A Rose Ere Blooming” and Hark, The Echoing Air.” Having no competition in the Southern County Eliminations the Piano Trio, |ulia Dunn, violin, Betty Dunn, cello and Isabelle Devaux successfully represented this dis- trict in the County contest being then eligible to the Sectional Eliminations on April 22, at State College. T H E 1 II () E NICIAN The Girls’ Chorus The Girls’ Chorus is a blending of (he voices of precisely thirty girls that sing under (he capable direction of Miss Gray, our music supervisor. That the various girls might have an opportunity to experience chorus work and pleasure, the organization was formed. The Girls’ Chorus entered the Cambria County Finals against the Ebensburg- Cambria High School Chorus in the Forensic League Contests. Here they made a very excellent showing, singing, according to requirement and selection, Dearest Lord Jesus'’ by Johann Sabastian Bach and I Go Before My Charmer,’’ by Thomas Morlev. Much credit is due Miss Gray for the success of these organizations, whose every effort was bent on long and intense preparation. T H E P H O E N I C I A N Debate Team Shortly after the beginning of the 1932-33 school term, Mr. I omb, the debate coach, organized a debate club composed of all pupils about the school who were inter- ested in debating. For several months, the club members practiced platform manners, emphasis, and extemporaneous speaking. Immediately after the mid-term examinations, the final debating team was chosen. This team composed of Helene Dobrick, Edward Kern, Jack Ringold, and Margaret Williams, speakers; and Sara Margaret Jones, Cieorgc Statler, Charlotte Singer, and James Longwell. alternates, immediately began work on the question for debate, ‘‘Re- solved: That at least one half of the total state and local revenue should be derived from sources other than tangible property.” Practically every night after school was devoted to debate work. Speeches were written, approved and memorized; faulty habits of speech and position eradicated, refutation practiced. At least, it was prepared for the first debate. The final scores: South Fork—Affirmative lost; Negative lost. Franklin Affirmative won; Negative won. Southmont Affirmative won; Negative lost. Ferndalc—Affirmative lost; Negative won. Conemaugh—Affirmative won; Negative won. Girls' League With a feeling of accomplishment and success, the Girls’ League, under the super- vision of Miss McGann, has brought to an end its first year of activity. The officers, Mary Louise Walker, President, Margaret Williams, Vice President,' Jean Barnhart, Secretary, and Vivian Dunkle, Treasurer, have not only presented entertainment from the social side of life, but have also started the girls on an exciting tour around the world. The club, as its first social affair, held a Hallowe'en dance which the entire school attended in fancy costume. In her reading of “The First Christmas Tree by Henry Van Dvke, Mrs. Martin very successfully portrayed the Yuletide spirit. Immediately following the holiday, the club set out on its tour. As the steamer, “Vulcania,” docked, the girls had their first glimpse of western Europe. Historic, religious, and many social relations with the Mother country were called to nund by our most enjoyable guide. Miss Cathryne Esenwein. Mr. Ramsay, whose program was sponsored by the League, further continued our European travels by conducting us through the mysterious land of Russia. After be- coming personally acquainted with their communistic governmental machinery as well as with tne collective homes, schools, and religious groups we realized vividly the horrible social conditions of this country. It was with a feeling of relief that we entered our own land through the Golden Gate of San Fransisco. Met by our guide, Miss McGann, who related several of the myths of this land, we traveled toward New York. I he club was more than pleased when Miss .Margaret Greer made them acquainted with several recent and most successful plays. Mrs. Keller added to these a finishing note by taking the girls, as her imaginary guests to witness the play, “Alice In Wonder- land. ’ Following this most enjoyable privilege, we strolled down Fifth Avenue to wonder at the crowds and feel the sway of Broadway. Such a feast deserved a light sunny dessert. The club, therefore, donning its summer gown, was off with her for Florida. Returning home, after the able direction of the tour, the club planned its new spring activities. P H () E N I C I A N Bovs’ Club The Bovs' Club of the 1932-33 season, under the able leadership of the club's presi- dent, Norman Wilner and the Faculty advisor, Mr. MeIInay proved to be very success- ful. The season was inaugurated by initiating the new members, the freshmen, which of course is always enjoyed by the “has been freshmen. And it may be mentioned that those poor fellows were over-joyed when this initiation was completed, because they felt the after effects for many days. The various classes of the school took their turns in putting on programs and as a result, all proved to be highly entertaining. It was learned through these there was a great ileal of talent in readings and music, as well as acting. Other meetings of the club were led by some of the town's most prominent doctors, ministers, public service commissioners, lawyers, representing present day vocations. The Club itself is composed of all the boys in the high school. The meetings are held in the High School auditorium twice a month. At the end of every year the officers and also the faculty advisor are elected for the succeeding year. The purpose of the Boys' Club is mainly to inform the members on topics of vo- cations; as it also acquaints the members with the new freshmen and the other new faces seen in the school. The officers of the past year were President, Norman Wilner; Vice President, Phil Price; and the Secretary-Treasurer, Jack Truxall. '1' H E PHOENICIAN Biology Club The Biology Club, composed of members of Miss Canan’s biology classes, is rapidly becoming a more important and prominent school organization. Each year, thru the autumn and spring and less frequently thru the winter, the club takes interesting field trips which are valuable in aiding students to know more about our plants and animals. Each spring there are several early morning trips, especially for bird study. The songs, plumage, and habits of our feathered friends, many of which are unfamiliar to the most of us, become well-known to each member of the club. Study of the wild flowers of Elk Run Valley is also an interesting part of our spring observation. Each spring, accurate records are kept of the first appearance of the worms, of types of plants, and of the blossoming of trees and shrubs, as well as, of the arrival of different birds in our vicinity. A record is also kept of everything of interest seen or heard on each field trip. Seventy-four species of birds have been listed as observed in Elk Run Valley, and on the list of spring wild-flowers are eighty different species. PHOENICIAN Dramatic Club For some years past now W. U. Y. H. S. has not been able to boast of a dramatic club. This year the girls league decided it was high time we should. No sooner said than done. The girls got busy, had tryouts, drew up a constitution, and started out on their great venture with a membership of twenty-five girls. All these girls were adapted for the work and all were interested and ambitious. The girls have done a great many interesting things this year although their first under the guidance of Miss Kantner. There have been plays and more plays and every girl has participated. Besides actual play productions, the girls have learned some of the technicalities of drama. Many of the meetings have been spent in studying and learning the types of drama and various related subjects. One of the most interesting meetings this year was a discussion on make-up by Mrs. Harry Hager. She not only told us all about make-up but demonstrated on two of our willing girls. After this meeting all the girls were eager to make themselves into old women, hunch backs, slouchy ladies and beautiful heroines. Of course there are many things related to drama that the girls have not been able to touch upon; but each one has learned a great many things and has had a great deal of fun besides. Considering the infancy of the venture, much has been accomplished and the club has a bright future. Perhaps when it is better established the male actors of V. U. Y. H. S. will be admitted. Just ask any one of the members of the club and she will tell you what fun it is. Here’s hoping that next year’s dramatic club will be “bigger and better than ever.” T H E PHOENICIAN Girl Reserves me A lone star gleaming above a jagged silhouette of trees roughly outlined against an evening-tinted sky.

T II E PHOENICIAN Hi-Y Activities Although the group of hoys known as the Hi-Y Club is one of the most active clubs around the school, I doubt il it is well known to most students. Therefore, we'll get acquainted by reviewing past activities of the club. This year we started off with a rush by inviting all our “old grads back, and talking over old times, making them feel sorry that they hadn't flunked out at Westmont. During the year we had numerous meetings, dinners, and social activities at frequent intervals. The first big dinner which we attempted was the invite a guest meeting, in order to acquaint our club with other fellows. New members were voted in shortly , and instruments of torture constructed for their (?) pleasure (?) The in as a howling good time, and the new members aren't sorry thev went througl after wan itiation was ltiation was a howling good time, and the new members aren t sorry they went through it. Shortly afterward, we held a Father and Son dinner, which was a great success, because it made known to the Dads what our club was doing in the way of guiding their boys morally. Good food, good entertainment, and good fun characterized this gathering. To show the student body what our club was doing as a business organization, lei we held our next meeting in the auditorium, before the students. They probably doubt, though, that we really moved and seconded so eloquently in a regular business meet- ing. We'll remember for a long time the party which was tendered us by the Girl Re- serves. What a Feed! (This about ended the year’s activities in the way of social gatherings, with the exception of numerous short business meetings.) Two of Our mem- bers were honored with positions on the Hi-Y Council, consisting of officers from every Club in Johnstown. Phil Price was elected Vice President, while Jack Truxal was chosen chaplain. We also sent delegates to the Older Boys' Conference at Greensburg. Active teams also took part in basket-ball, volleyball, mushball, and swimming. So, as you see, guided by President Howells, aided by Vice President Price, Secretary Whitten, and I reasurer 1 ruxal the Hi-Y Club swept through an active and successful year. T H E PHOENICIAN Mock Kleetion Mr. Tomb put on an act, a clever ingenious plan. A mock election it was in fact, for the school to choose the man. Two chief candidates they had. the Rep's upheld Herb Hoover. The Democrats went Roosevelt mad, each forced the other’s maneuver. But the endings very queer. Hoover took the cake. Roosevelt was on his ear. this campaign a fake. Here is honest “Herb” With a heart of gold Who won our election By almost twofold. Here is Roosevelt Who lost our election But for him the States felt A greater affection. Here is Mr. Elephant Of G. O. P. fame It took Albert and Popovich To carry his frame. Here is Sir Donkey Of Tammany Hall Portrayed by George Sakmar At the election last fall. T H E PHOENICIAN French Club Both first year and second year students are members of the French club which is organized to supplement class room French, and produce a higher degree of fluency and familiarity with the language. The officers are: Mary Louise Hannan, President; Kathryn Rodgers, Secretary . Le Petit Courier This is the second year for “Le Petit Courier,” the French class paper, which is published every two months. Its purpose is to give the students of French more practice in sight reading and a more extensive knowledge of the people and the country of France. In accordance with this plan the second issue was concerning the French Christmas. It contained an article on the birth of Christ as taken from a chapter of Luke of the French Bible; one on Christmas eve when the little children put out their petit shoes for le Pere Noel to fill with gifts; and another on Christmas at the Elysee, the White House of France. The third paper edited gave a brief picture of the geography, the commerce, the industry, the agriculture, and the capital of France. There may Ik found in addition many other types of material. In various issues there is a feature called “Ik s Correspondence” in which the reader is kept posted on what French girls like anti do. The information comes from the letters the students receive from their French correspondents. To comply with the pupil s lighter moments jokes and cross word puzzles have been printed. Another feature that is interesting though not concerning France is the articles of Mile. Dobrick on her trip to New ork. We enjoyed all these articles although “nous ne parlous pas la krancaise. T H E PHOENICIAN Football Coach Carl A. Kngh, (Ik congenial veteran who has coached everv Westmont-Upper Yoder High School athletic team again produced a successful football team. The last week in August fifty football loving boys gave up their baseball and swimming to return again to the gridiron, and reported to the Coach. Among these fifty candidates were seven varsity let termen of former years and the entire 1931 junior varsity. The splendid attitude of the boys plus the untiring efforts of Coach Kngh and his assistants Wolf and Marshall brought forth a well conditioned and highly trained football team after three weeks of training. In the first game of the season an inexperienced Barnesboro High team was over-powered and outstepped by a much heavier Westmont eleven to the tune of 35 to 0. Blairsville High, our next opponent, was held to a scoreless tie in a hard fought, nerve racking game on the Blairsville field. Hammerle, who replaced the injured Diamond at f ullback, made his debut in varsity competition in this game before an unusually large crowd of rival Blairsville fans. In a game at the Point Stadium, Westmont hit a fighting underdog Conemaugh High School team and, despite the brilliant work of Captain Wilner and Kllis, when the smoke of battle” had cleared, there was another tie on the Westmont record. Ferndale High, our ancient rival, was next met in a night game under the flood lights of the Point Stadium. Playing before the largest crowd of fans to witness a West- mont game for years the Red and Gray footballers were defeated by a 6 to 0 score. Even in defeat Captain Wilner was outstanding in the Westmont backfield with Labe doing yoeman’s duty on the line. The next Westmont victims were the Southmont High School wearers of Yellow and Black. After having scored the first touchdown and goal after the touchdown Southmont was trounced to the tune of 41 to 7. The playing of the entire Westmont team was outstanding. The following week a well trained Westmont team was defeated by a superior Windber High eleven. This highly exciting game was played on the latter’s field before a large group of both Westmont and Windber followers. After hard skirmishing the score stood 20 to 6 in favor of Windber. Captain Ripple of Windber and Howells and Ellis of Westmont displayed superior playing ability for their respective teams. T H E PHOENICIAN For the first time in (he history of Westmont-Upper Yoder High School a repre- sentative Franklin High School football club was met. Following a hard struggle on the wind swept Price Memorial Field Westmont, with Howells, Schneck anil Foy leading the wav, came through the conqueror by the score of 13 to 0. Somerset High was the next victim of the now smoothly clicking Westmont-Upper Yoder gridiron team. In one of the closest, cleanest and hardest fought games seen in Westmont for many years, Somerset, despite the brilliant work of Sellers at the left tackle position, lost to the home team by a 6 to 0 score. With nine seniors playing their last game. Westmont-Upper 't oder High School came through with flying colors to defeat Ebcnsburg by the score of 30 to 0. Every member of the first, second and third teams received a chance to display his ability in this game. In their last interscholastic football game. Captain Wilner, 1 homas Ellis, and Thomas Tiffany starred for the victorious Westmont team.

Who is that clearing for the fast stepping backfieldmen? That is Labe, W estmont’s three year varsity man who was given honorable mention on the All-County team. Butler, W estmont’s “Camera,’’ stopped many an opposing buck by “plugging” his hole at the crucial moment. Schneck is not as big as Camera, but he showed the same fighting spirit in his first year of varsity competition at the guard post. An accurate passer, Tiffany never failed to give the backfieldmen a perfect start on their ground-gaining journeys. An excellent blocking back, Zimmer, our Sophomore Star, paved the way for the ground gaining backfieldmen's journey toward the goal. The speed merchant of our team, Neafach and passing. excelled in the difficult bits of punting Captain W’ilner, our triple threat star, was the outstanding backfield man of the county as was proved when he was picked on the All-Countv first team. A 3 vear veteran, Foy reached his peak this year and proved a fine ball carrier plus his ability to block effectively. I he midget Sophomore, Berkley proved a thorn to the opposition on many occasions because of his excellent ball carrying and passing ability. The signal caller of the team is Hammeric. Holding this position on any team is a tribute to a football man. A fast ball carrier was Bill Diamond, whose knee injury after the first game kept him out of the lineup for the remainder of the season. Not enough credit can be given to George (Pee Wee) Sackmar for the manner in which he performed his duty as manager. T H E PHOENICIAN Basketball Whizzing passes, fast cuts, long shots banking directly off the bankingboard through the rim of the basket; then the sharp sound of a whistle which ended the playing and th e gymnasium was silent. Thirty boys lined up and Coach Engh looked over the eager squad of varsity basketball aspirants. Among these were the four basketball letter men Captain Ellis. Neafach, ilner, and Howells, the men who formed the nucleus of one of the most successful basketball teams ever to represent Westmont on the court. In a few days the squad was cut to fifteen men and the hard practice began. After four weeks of practicing the team was chosen and the boys were ready for their first game. I he season was officially opened against Ebensburg, the game being played on the home floor. With Captain Ellis and Neafach leading the way, Westmont’s fast stepping team overcame the visitors 27 to 20. Next came the highly praised Portage High five who also were defeated 34 to 19. I he first half of this game was very close but the Red anil Gray basketeers rallied in the third quarter and scored 15 points to 4 for Portage. Johnstown High put a stop to Westmont’s winning ways in a close and thrilling game on the Westmont floor, 27 to 24. Westmont next defeated the Windber High cagers 29 to 18 in a game on the home floor. Coach Engh's proteges put on speed in the last half and left the floor the victor by a large margin. Franklin High paid a visit to the Red and Gray, who after a hard struggle de- feated the invaders by a score of 23 to 21. In a return game at Ebensburg the county seaters were again defeated in a close hard fought game. Led by Ellis and Neafach the Westmonters held the long end of a 24 to 18 score. Playing before a packed house, Westmont was defeated by her bitter rivals. Fern- dale. After the third quarter Westmont led by a scant margin, 10 to 9, but Ferndale T H E PHOENICIAN made a remarkable rally which netted her 8 points to none for the Enghmen, ami at the close of the clean, well played game, Ferndale led 17 to 10. The following week Westmont took their annual trip to Cumberland, Maryland. Alleghany High, 1932 Maryland State Champs ran roughshod over the visitors to take a 37 to 21 decision. The playing of the two centers, Morris of Allegany and Howells of Westmont, featured. In the most exciting game seen in Westmont for many years the championship Altoona High five defeated a plucky underdog Westmont aggregation 22 to 20. The fast passing and accurate shooting ol (he Altoona team proved too much for the lighting Westmonters. Westmont next journeyed to Portage to play the mainlincrsa return game. Portage evened the count to 1-1 by tacking the fourth successive defeat on the Westmont team. Both teams played loose basketball, the score ending 17 to 16. The Enghmen finally snapped out of their lethargy and again defeated Franklin High. Westmont, minus the service of Captain Ellis and Howells, played inspired basketball, anil led by Neafach, was victorious bv the score of 28 to 19. Ferndale visited Westmont and was defeated 20 to 10! Westmont High achieved its most cherished victory of the year by defeating Alleghany High of Cumberland, Maryland, 19 to 8. It was in this return game at West- mont that the Maryland champs lost their only game of the season. Westmont next invaded Windber for a return game. After a hard fought battle, the coaltowners were defeated 30 to 23. Johnstown again defeated Westmont in a bitterly fought game on (he Johnstown floor, 25 to 25. After trailing most of the game, Altoona forged ahead of Westmont in the last three minutes of the game, to win by the score of 34 to 30. The St. Francis Tournament After having drawn a bye in (he first round, Barnesboro became the first tourna- ment opponent of the Red and Gray basketeers. In an unevenly matched game, West- mont scored at will to win 61 to 16. Cresson, the third round opponent, did not offer much opposition and was defeated 31 to 10, thus sending the Enghmen into the semi-finals. In one of the most bitterly fought games played during the tournament, West- mont won the “rubber game from Portage 18 to 17, which placed them in the finals of the tournament. Westmont ended the season in a blaze of glory by winning The St. Francis Tourna- ment championship from Gallitzin by a 43 to 21 score. Harold Neafach was voted the most valuable man to his team in the tournament, and received the Francis J. Salony Trophy as his reward. The school was presented the Assemblymen’s Trophy, which re- mains permanently with the winning team, and the Varsity “F Trophy, to be held for one year. Westmont, in winning the championship this year, became the first team to win the tournament championship more than once.

The 1952-35 season was marked by the Varsity joining the Tri-County League made up of Portage, Wind- tar, Altoona, Ferndale, and last but not least, Westmont who offered strong competition for their worthy foes. The first team to be vanquished by our fighting “navy ' was Portage who bowed before Westmont 29-7. This taste of victory proved tempting to our fair damsels. Consequently they kept “hot on the heels of that delicacy for the rest of the season, although it seemed a little sour at times. The next foe to be conquered for a 22 to 11 count. by the “little girls was Windber who went down A nice trip to Altoona netted a victory over the “Mountain Lassies by a score of 16-12. Dame victory deserted the girls in the next three games. A return game with W indber proved to be one of the most exciting games of the season. A tie! No, Windber forged ahead at the half 9-12. Now Westmont took the lead, then Windber and a tie against the fourth quarter 21-21. The extra five minutes caused the Hilltoppers to taste their first defeat. This defeat put the Westmonters in the “dumps resulting in their losing the next two games. Altoona paid us a return call and won the bacon by two points, 18-16. PHOENICIAN T H E We took a “beating” at the hands of our friendly rivals Ferndale. At the quarter the scoreboard showed a tie 5-5, at the half 7-8 and Westmont all smiles. At the (bird quarter Ferndale wore the smiles and continued to do so for the remainder ol the game winning it by 16-10. Victory again paid a visit to Westmont when we traveled to Portage and took over the Portage lassies by ten points 31-21. And then the worst defeat of the season leaving our girls in tears after experiencing a 17-3 set back at the hands of Ferndale! To end the season right the girls gave the first Girls’ Basketball Banquet in the history of the school. The parents of the players and the school board were invited to attend the affair and then witness the presentation of letters to the girls who earned them by playing in 51% of the entire quarters played. The girls who received their letters were Jean Barnhart, Sara Lewis, Julia Moran, Jane Townsend, Mary Haws, Mary Katherine Swank, Ann Waters, manager, Margaret Waters and Louise Berkebilc were awarded numerals for recognition of their service to the team. It seems fitting to state here that these few girls missed receiving their letters by a slight margin, Margaret having played in 12 of (he 16 required quarters ami Louise in 10. Later the Varsity played the Faculty whose team was made up of Anna StengerC., Mrs. Robinson S.C., Miss Greer and Miss Kantner F., and Miss Wyman and Miss Blough G. The girls proudly carried the Westmont team to victory over the Faculty by 33-26. T II E PHOENICIAN Track Over thirty ambitious athletes bursting with enthusiasm to trv their skill on the track and in the various field activities, reported in the gym the first day of track season. With the fellows from last year and the new material, coach Engh expects to have an especially successful season. All the candidates are working for one thing, that is to belong to the relay team. This attainment means a trip to Philadelphia, when and if the financial difficulty of the banks is straightened out. The team is entering the following meets: Penn Relay at Philadelphia, April 29, 1935. Pitt meet at Pittsburgh, May 6, 1933. Junior Pitt meet at Johnstown, May 12, 1935. Invitation meet at Westmont, May 19, 1933. Track has always been a side sport in the high schools ot our vicinity but it is gradually becoming popular. More interest is being shown by the students of the schools. W hen track started at Wrestmont in 1927, only a few turned out for this sport but today we can boast of a track squad comparable to the other teams of the Cambria County district.
