PROGRESS THE PHOENICIAN OF WESTMONT-UPPER YODER HIGH SCHOOL JOHNSTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA 1111 PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS NINETEEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY - FOUR A CENTURY OF PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION BLDG. CHICAGO RUFUS C. DAWES PRESIDENT February 5, 1934. Mr. Duncan C. Augustine, Editor, The Phoenician, Johnstown, Penna. My dear Sir: A Century of Progress Exposition distinct- ly confined its attention to the enlargement of human knowledge, or science, and the application of science in industry for the comforts of men. The progress it celebrated consisted in better adjustment to physical environment. It did not even raise the question as to whether this ad- vance in physical science would increase the happiness and welfare of men in their social and spiritual lives. I think you will not find any word in the Greek or Latin language which, being translated, conveys the conception that is carried by the word Progress . Very truly yours DEDICATION TO LAURA E. McGANN WITH DEEPEST GRAT- ITUDE FOR HER PLEAS- ANT FRIENDSHIP, ENER- GETIC SPIRIT, AND UN- TIRING EFFORTS TO DEVELOP THE YOUTH OF TO-DAY FOR THE LEADERSHIP OF THE YOUTH OF TO-MOR- ROW. X AC -53— 3 - £•_ 7?) FOREWORD During the few short years of its existence, the American nation has carved a place for itself in the records of human- ity through the steps it has taken in the progress of man, fostered by a spirit of democracy. Now celebrating the first cen- tury of this progress, it is looking forward with re- newed spirit to the future. With this spirit as its in- spiration and with the Century of Progress ex- position as its symbol, the Phoenician is cele brating the progress of the High School and of its members and is tak- ing a step forward itself in pioneering in a new and modern form of year- book design.

CREED OF CITIZENSHIP; OF WESTMONT AND UPPER YODER HIGH SCHOOL To be true to the traditions of my school and of my country. To be courteous to my fellow citizens both in my school and in my community. To maintain my own self-respect and the respect of my neigh- bor. To practice thrift by caring for the property of others and by making the best use of my own time and possessions. To contribute my share in carrying the social responsibility of my schooi and my community. During this school year, the Student Council has been striving to bring about in each student a consciousness of his social being so as to build up a recognized, respectable tone about our school. In doing this, the council at all times has tried to remain as democratic and as considerate of the students as possible. Organized as a medium through which these students can more fully cooperate with the faculty for a common benefit, the council has steadily moved forward and taken a definite place ir the administration of the school. In solving its problem of creating a desirable atmosphere, the council has laid the foundation of the movement in the form of the above accepted creed.

LOOKING FORWARD Where do we go from here? What's next in this mix-up called life? They tell us that we must now go out and fight, fight, fight, to be able to live! Some of us will proceed further, making ourselves a little more well-prepared for the first round, while others will rely on the experiences that they have gained in high school to back them as they step bare-fisted into the ring. To them, and to the others, these four years will have been invaluable exper- ience. Knowledge of practical, intellectual, social, and spiritual value; train- ing along the lines of taking responsibilities, managing activities, meeting business men, practising sportsmanship, conducting and guiding meetings and cooperating with others; contacts with young people—our classmates, our social acquaintances, and our scholastic opponents in sports, music, and oratorical and literary efforts; and contacts with older people—our persistent, earnest, tolerant, loyal, dependable, provoking, whole-hearted teachers, the considerate office force, the patient janitors, and outside men in the roles of speakers, representatives, officials, and tradesmen. A period of finding and of expressing oneself. A period of preparation for the dim future, offered us by our parents, that they might see us able to stand up to take the jobs of life as they come, but always to keep going, to keep fighting, to keep pro- gressing!

Think you it is time to partake ol our noonday Kern-els of corn? Shanaditch: Nay! Thrice nay! Sail on, O Ship of the Desert! We are getting a Longwell. We will Hunt until we find the Tomb of Owa-ta-mahn. We have pushed on Moran more Daily, and we should soon be—help! (A rumbling and a crashing, as he sinks from sight.) Alas! those were his last words on earth. SCENE II—Owa-ta-mahn's Tomb. Shanaditch: (Slightly ruffled and a little dustier than before.) Whew! If this isn't luck! We fell right through the trap Dorer of Owa-ta-mahn's pent house. His tomb ought to be around here some place. Sobahan: (All a-twitter.) Look! What's that button for? (Presses button.) A blinding flash obliterates all scenery. (We'll put a little thunder in too, if ya haint a-skeered.) Shanaditch: (Coming out of the fog.) Where are you, Sobie? (As the fog clears). Oh there you are. What miracle has been cast our way? Look —gold, glittering emeralds, silks and satins, the like of which has never before greeted my eyes. Objects of Price-less value! Hurrah! We are in the tomb! Sobahan: Hurrah! Shanaditch: Hurrah! SCENE III—In a dark, damp, devious corner of the tomb. Mummies are all around. Sobahan: “We are famous! We are rich! We are—. Shanaditch: We are here! Sobahan: (Walking over to large mummy, which looks real fresh.) I wonder who this was? It attracts me. Shanaditch: Why Werry? It was probably Owa-ta-mahn's Porter, or some- thing. He suddenly looks up, and sees a grinning skull Beam-ing down upon him. Eeek! That poor fellow looks sort of Hager-ed! All of a sudden a Russell-ing is heard and bag-pipes start playing softly. With a sigh, the mummy starts to unwrap itself. (It was all wrapped up in itself. Minnie Myero, the Jewel ol Egypt, flower of the Emeperor's heart, trips lightly out. Shanaditch: Ah! Sobahan: “Oh! Shanaditch and Sobahan: “Oh! Ah! (Register astonishment.) Minnie: Hello, suckers! Shanaditch: Such beautyl What, may I ask, are you doing here? Minnie: Oh, I always was an early Reiser. Where's the Emperor? I've got a complaint. A girl can t even go to sleep any more, without a bunch of mugs wrapping her up in a lot of old cloth, and stickin' her in a tomb . Sobahan: (Aside). She doesn't know that she was asleep for 5000 years. I Mesteller! (to Minnie) You're in the Emperor's tomb. You've been asleep for 5000 years. Minnie Oh well, that doesn't Mattern. I guess you're not kidding me, big boy. I can Reed it in your eyes. Thank gosh I'm away from the Shik of Bohar, the rat! He makes me Boyle. He's after this diamond ring, and the hand that's in it, but he hasn't caught me yet, and he never will, the vip- er! Shanaditch: Is that Ringold? Minnie: No, but it's a pretty Swank-y piece of glass, doncha think? Suddenly a grunt and a gnashing of teeth eminates from beneath. A trap door at their very feet rises, and a hand slowly issues forth. With a screech, Minnie disappears. Growling out an evil laugh, the Shik of Bohar appears, followed by his Chinese Butler, Ah Choo, the scourge of the East. Bohar: Whar's thet gal? Sobahan: (Gritting his teeth) I do not know! Bohar: You're Lyon, you Kerr! Give 'im the hot poker, Ah Choo, the one we used in our last draymal Heh! Heh! Ah Choo: (To Shanaditch) We Kelly you if you no Kauf-man up! Bohar: Hey, Ah Choo, you're in the wrong story. This one's a gal. She's around here some place. Hunter! Shanaditch: I won't tell! 1 won't! Bohar: You'll tell, you weasel, or I'll Grazier skull with this Knife (Pulls out a knife four or five feet long, which looks very dangerous.) Heh! Heh! Tell, or you'll p-Emeigh with your life! Heh! Heh! In the meantime, Ah Choo is rummaging around among old mummies, coffins, and things like that. Suddenly the clock strikes twelve! (We've got to put that in some place.) Ah Choo: (Uttering a terrible scream, and jumping up and down.) Me velly much bit! Me velly much bit! Bohar: (With a sneer, as he turns from his black barbaric deeds.) Boyer jumpy to-night, Ah Choo! What's eatin' you? Ah Choo: (Rubbing his sitter-downer) Me bent over flont of mummy. Me bit! Bohar: (Snarling, as he notices a movement behind said mummy.) What s in the back of that there mummy? Ah Choo: (Peering cautiously behind mummy.) “Ah, fair maiden here! Lost is found! Bohar: ' Ah ha! I might have known it, me proud beauty! Hiding behind your mummy's skirts, eh? No longer will you thwart my efforts to win your fair hand! You will have breakfast with me, fair one. You can have Hamm-ond eggs, if you wish! Heh! Heh! As if you dare refuse! You are in me powah! Ah Choo: We want Hamm-erle(y). Me hungry! Minnie: (Sobbing in anguish) Oh yeah? You just wait, you mug! I'll get even! She holds up a set of false teeth. They bite pretty well for their age, don't they, Ah Choo? With a quick and graceful movement, she hurls the teeth across the cavern to Shana- ditch, who has been in a Brown study. He catches them, as Minnie starts to run Bohar: (To Ah Choo) Catch her! You Mos-holder! (As Ah Choo encloses Minnie’s frail arm in a vise-like grip). If she tries that again, we'll saw- Miller! Heh! Heh! But, as Bohar's back is turned Shanaditch severs his bonds with the set of teeth. After quickly freeing Sobahan, he springs fiercely upon Bohar's neck, as Sobahan dashes over and engages in a battle with Ah Choo. It is a battle to the death! Seeking his enemy's jugular vein, he clamps the teeth upon it. Gritting his teeth, he snuffs out Ah Choo's life. Ah Choo: (Gurgling his last gurgle) 'Me bit! Me bit! Shanaditch: (As he ties the Shik of Bohar in a knot.) Shauley that will hold you, you snake! Minnie: My Hero! It's a good thing that grand-mummy over there had a set of false teeth, or 1 would still be in the clutches of that cur! Bohar: Curses! The End. THE CLASS OF 1924 Ten years. One-sixth of the average man's life. How much each one of those decades means to the success of the other five! Probably the most im- portant decade is that following High School graduation. Ceasing to live on society, one must take his own place in society, deciding on, and prepar- ing for a method of self support, and locating and establishing a home. Ten years of decisions and changes, and of struggling to find one's place in life. It is one thing to be able to prophesy the results, and still another thing to be able to look back ct the resuits oi these ten vears. We are able to do both in the case of the Class ot 1924 . They have been out in the world since their graduation, and in order to help them in seeing how the class as a whole has progressed, and to satisfy our own curiosity as to what changes we can expect by 1944, we present a record of the Class of 1924' , with direct quota- tions from their own Class Prophecy and then Ihe ‘bare facts concerning what havoc ten years have worked.

Unfamiliar with each other, unorganized, they strove to build within their decks a solid society ... a friendly, amicable, group. Car- mon Berkley, their first captain, accurately charted the first lap of the cruise and brought his cargo to port without mishap or misfortune. Then as Sophomores, with a voyage of experience behind and a promising hor- izon ahead, their spirits were jubilant. This fall they would have a Book Week that would be bigger, different, and far more stupendous than those of previous years. Retaining their ideal, they presented to the assembly on November eighteenth, a pag- eant which thrilled their audience and promised well for the future. So interesting and complete was the production that they were requested to present it again in the Cochran Auditorium on February twelfth. .After all this work, our Juniors naturally felt the need of relaxation, and thus the unforgetable Sophomore party was held. Ice cream, girls, and songs were plentiful. Recalling to mind their success of the previous years, the Juniors again set out on a new cruise With Russell Yost as president, Pauline Herndon supervising the Yodler , and a competent cast presenting the plays, the Juniors struggled admirab- ly through the difficult jobs of holding dances, editing a paper, and presenting three one-act plays. Determined to have a good Prom, despite the expense, they again reached their mark and bid the Seniors a hearty Von Voyage. Now three again reached their mark and bade the Seniors a hearty “Bon Voyage.” Now three chapters of their log are closed, only the incompleted fourth remains. JUNIORS Row I -•$. Tiffany, Moclc, R.

Then high school! This is the general course of travel. The present Sophomores, sailing over these waters, crossed the Lagoon of Grade School Education, and with faces dis- playing traces of curiosity mingled with anxiety, they docked at the Enchant- ed Isle. Before the class of '36 began their tour as Freshmen over this area of spectacles and countless wonders, they had to have leaders. For chief guide they selectd Walker Owen, with Dean Engh as first assistant. Patricia Waters was given the responsibility of the log, and the finances of the tour were entrusted to Barbara Henderson. Then the trip began. They mot new faces! Did new things! Watched and aped! However, all this time they were sitting back, not expressing themselves, but forming ideas, for it was new territory. Their chance lay ahead. SOPHOMORES Row l---Craiq. W. Gillin, Kaiser, H. Allendor- for. Ellis. Row ll-.-Foldt. Druckenmiller. H. Reinholz, Carroll. Row lll---Enqh, R. McEldowney. Adams. R. Benchoff.

As Sophomores, the travelers, with the Spirit of Progress , stepped into the Midway. They were no longer groping for something to cling to, nor was their footing abso- lutely fixed. It was the Midway! Here the traveler? were aware that a price must be paid for entrance into the City of a Million Lights . Once more the class of '36 organized. This time Jeanette Neafach took the lead with Robert Drukenmiller close behind. The records were transferred to John Grove, and Lucille Wainger handled the money. All worked under the faithful adviser- ship of Miss McGann. Turning south from the Twenty-Third Street Entrance the Sophomores encountered the first flaring banner labelled Cooperation. Books! A splash of color! A sky-ride! An Enchanted Island! The Wings of Progress! All this was a part of the original and fascinating Book Fair under- taken by the Sophomores.

Always wondering hither and thither with awe-stricken countenances. Always under one's feet. Freshmen, with little to do and less to say, but, Freshmen with school spirit. They supported plays and athletics; they took part in Glee Club, Band, Orchestra, Girls' League, and Boys' Club. To the basketball and football teams they contribu- ted a letter man, Raymond Spuhler. A second honor was accorded Raymond Spuhler when he was chosen president of his class. Parallel to these laurels among the boys were those of Mary Edith Crichton, vice-president of the class and pianist for various musical organizations. To aid in the administration of the class, Charles Price and Beatrice May were elected while the two members to bring Fresh- men ideas to Student Council were Robert Mercer and James Brant. At class meetings, supervised by Mr. Siegel, attractive programs were provided to entertain the class members. FRESHMEN Row Row Row Row Row Row Row Row Row Row Row Row I- --Fesko. Streilein, Cook.

GIRLS' LEAGUE Forty-seven Senior girls, forty-three Junior girls, fifty-four Sophomore girls, forty-five Freshman girls Girls, many girls, one hundred and eighty-nine girls in the Wcstmont- Upoer Yoder School! One hundred and eigh'y-nine different personal interests, yet one hundied and eighty-nine girls united in one common interest . . . The Girls' League. Girls everywhere have many ambitions . . . ambitions for civic living, for social liv- ing, for economic living. It is these ambitions that the Girls League seeks to interpret. The large group meetings, the electing of officers, the Home Room Council, the organizing of committees, participating in community activities . . . all accustom the girls to methods of civic life. At the first meeting of the League new girls in the school were welcomed. Each contrib- uted fun, music, or pantomine as her entrance fee to the social life of the group. Christmas baskets carried to others the enthusiasm of the League to share social responsibility. In April at a spring party all girls rollicked in home-made fun. In May, Mothers were hon- ored at a farewell tea. All the activities of the club were presided over by Marie McClintock, president, assist- ed by the executive committee: Miss Laura McGann as adviser, Jane Townsend, Jean Barnhart, and Margaret Maley. The speakers were chosen to satisfy economic inquiries as to what the world as a whole, business, nursing, colleges, or the community, expects of girls. Dr. Olin G. A. Barker . . . What Shall I Expect at the Century of Progress”. Miss Catherine Wagner . . . What Shall I Expect of Nursing . Mrs. Sydney Killian . . . What Shall 1 Expect of Business . Mrs. Harry Hager . . . What Shall I Expect of the 'Little Theater' Movement”. Dr. Naomi Riches . . . What Shall I Expect from College”. Few High School boys are exempt from the ever persistent question of What Shall I Be? What Is My Job In Life?' The Boys' Club, an organization for all of the feilows of the school, does much to assuage this feeling. In each of its regular bi-monthly meetings a new vocational pursuit is presented and discussed. The question is brought before the group by a person prominent in that particular field. If the benefits received are in proportion to the hearty approval of this type of club activity, great expectations may be held for the futures of our young men. Dr. D. P. Ray . . . ’Health . Rev. W. K. Anderson . . . Ministry as a Vocation . Dr. F. W. Davis . . . China . Attorney Alvin Sherbine . . . Law as a Vocation”. Miss McGann . . . Balanced Living as a Vocation”. Attorney W. C. Mulhollen . . . Service . Attorney E. F. Walker . . . “Legal Procedure”. These inspiring programs result from the consistent efforts of President James Longwell and his genial Help-mate”, Harry Poad while the nickels are kept rolling in by Walker Owen. Under the understanding guidance of Mr. Mcllnav, the officers and the club func- tioned smoothly. CLUBS Work and play] Each had its place in the Girl Reserve program this year. Don't forget your cranberries! Can you bring bread or butler. Here's some canned goods! All of these remarks and more were heard at Thanksgiving when the girls so willingly lived up to Ready for Service by preparing large baskets of food for needy families of the community. This cake costs only sixty-cents! Candy! ten cents a bag! Thus, the girls earned the necessary finances for their club. Many times the auditorium rang with peals of laughter or a sudden burst of song, on the Girl Reserve meeting day. By the many different types of programs each girl was able to display her talents as well as to hear from outside speakers. Solemnity and sincerity were brought out by the very impress- ive candle service for recognition. By well instructed tours to those parts of the city which are interesting, but not often known about, the girls were given the opportunity to learn of their own town. Arlene Miller, who was also president of the Inter-Club Council at the Y. W. C. A., graciously headed the club, as- sisted by the other officers: Pauline Herndon, Lucille Wainger, and Leona Schlesinger. In Miss Kantner, the girls had an interested and competent faculty adviser, who guided the Girl Reserves to the ultimate goal . . . success. GIRL RESERVES Row l---Miller, McClinfock. M. Willi ams.

Clean living! Twenty-five boys under Mr. Tomb and President Whitten building themselves up mentally, morally, and physically. The Hi-Y Club has, to some people, seemed shrouded in mystery. Except for noticeably boisterous social activities, such as dances and parties, these people may think that the club is a dormant organization living within itself. This is not true. Though there is nothing spectacular about the club (except the initiation) it does get things accomplished. Its members traveled to the Rose Bowl with Mr. Siegel, visited the Memorial Hospital with Mr. Fritz, discussed the Granger movement with Mr. Gross, were inspired by Dr. Anderson’s talk on Science and Religion , toured legal Washington under Mr. Stull, and molded better character with the aid of Mr. Brewer. The club joined with other Hi-Y clubs of the oty in a spe- cial church service in which Dr. Anderson answered questions relative to problems before boys of today. To the annual Hi-Y conference the club sent representatives Truxal and Whitten who brought back valuable and out-standing infor- mation to the Monday evening discussion of the club.

BIOLOGY CLUB Among the happy memories of the Seniors are the Bi- ology Club field trips to Elk Run Valley. Led by Miss Canan, an enthusiastic band of Biology Club workers hurried toward the woods on one of our early spring excursions. Because of March showers all wore rubbers except the few inexperienc- ed new-comers. One boy carried carefully in his hand a bucket full of flapping, red-spotted newts that were on their way to a new home in Elk Run. Upon entering the woods we heard a twittering in a near- by spice bush. Suddenly three small birds with white bands bordering their tails flew out. These were easily identified as juncos. Cautiously we picked our way down a narrow path, al- most completely hidden with underbrush. Finally, we reach- ed the gushing stream which was swollen and swift because of the melting snow. Fearfully, we crossed this stream by means of a wobbly log. It was well worth the effort for we had no sooner reached the other side than Miss Canon's quick eye detected the small bronze fronds of the grape fern, with the dissected variety of the same fern growing close beside it. Farther down the stream, in a swampy area, were the Stiff fertile fronds of the sensitive fern, remains of last years growth. Many evergreen plants were still showing among the dead leaves, . . . the trailing partridge berry, with its Bright red twin berries, two species of ground pine, the wint- ergreen, and several mosses. As we followed the stream, we came to a long hunted- for patch of skunk cabbages. Among other new growths of spring v ere the first leaves of the yarrow, sweet cicely, and mitrewort, and the new rosettes of the thistle. Finally, tired and hungry, we set out for home. Leaving the woods, we could hear in the distance the rata-tat-tat of the woodpeckers. CLUBS Row I—Mishler. Watkins, A. Maiorana. Daily, Kaufman, A. Miller, McClintock, Shaffer, B. Conrad.

Meetings in school after school, any time and all times.—Once again the Phoenician has survived under its chief pusher Miss McGann with assistants, Duncan Augustine, Jack Ringold, Phil Price, and Marie McClintock. And what a push it's been! Not hard—for the ioy of battle overran that. But none the less a push. Once the editors and a tentative staff had been elected, pressure mounted up. Money—from the first day to the last, money had to be fought for. Dances, skating parties, committees, subscriptions, sales, plays, dues, and creditors; all did their little bit. Business—the photographer selected and the little birdies revived; en- gravers interviewed and one selected; printers reviewed, accompanied by endless figures and specifications, less money-better job , and a dilemma of ideas and suggestions. The book—First, the dummy. A theme; something new and diferent; division; features; arrangement; all to be decided. Second, inquiries and requests. The use of bleed-off; cuts from the Century of Pro- grss; a letter from Mr. Dawes; the news of the Class of 1924. And Third, liter- ary work. Features; seniors; classes; sports;—all completed after hectic strug- gle and concentrated effort by every staff member. Finally—a product. Row I---Stewart, Singer, Maley, Miller, Daily, Campbell, M.

An unending line of achievements marks its success. Peak circulation! unusual features! an enthusiastic play! contests!—all to make a bigger, better paper. The Yodler Staff has shown courtesy and consideration to all organiza- tions. It has trained Sophomores to carry on its work next year. Prepared- ness, promptness, and accuracy have been instilled in the mind of every mem- ber by Pauline Herndon, editor, and Carolyn Brown, managing editor. Never before in the history of the paper has such a peak circulation been reached. In dealing with the grade schools, several hundreds of papers were disposed of. More than four thousand papers were sold during the year. Because of this splendid work the financial outcome has been extreme- ly favorable. Robert Mock and Morton Cohen were largely responsible for this unusual record. This year's staff has introduced new ideas—new columns. Spirit, en- ergy, hard work have been rewarded by a different paper. Miss Esenwein was responsible for a guick-moving, fast-thinking staff. Swiftness and accuracy were constantly emphasized. A century of progress is the theme of the year book, a year of progress has been the accomplishment of the paper. Row l---Foust, Livinqston, Bliqht. Geist, E. M. Hunt, Brown, J.

Let's go in and ask Mr. Homer to give us the history of the orchestra. When we asked him, he turned to the orchestra and said, Study over your music for a minute. Then turning to us he began, During the first few months of school, I spent most of my time organizing the band to play at the football games. But after I got the band on the road to success, I turn- ed my attention to the orchestra. At first we didn't play so well, but we im- proved enough to play for the first time in assembly A little later we played for the Senior play. We didn't enter the Forensic League Contest because each host school was allowed to enter its choice of a band or an orchestra. So, because we were a host, our band v as entered, and we couldn't enter the orchestra. (Please don't make so much noise.) We played at the Junior plays and at commencement. I'm sorry I can't tell vou more but I must prac tice now. All right, let's play the Schubert Suite. We left mith melodious music ringing in our ears. EDMUND HORNER-DIRECTOR PIANO—M. E.

BAND A blast of the whistle ... a roll of the drums ... a twirl of the baton . . . a flash of red and a bit of gray . . . and our newly organized band marches down the street with Audie Erdmann, our dashing drum-major, in the lead. Months of hard work were needed to make to is spectacle real. Months of hard work on the part of Mr. Horner, music supervisor, Dr. Sharp, and the members of the band. Special credit must be given to Mr. Homer, who start- ed the band . . . gave instruments to those who wanted to learn . . . kept the students interested in it . . . made them come to every rehearsal . . . worked untiringly until the band became rccogmzod as someih’ng of which the school would be proud To Dr. Sharp we give the crcd;t of procuring the snappy red and gray uniforms. Lastly, to the members of the band, we give credit for their hard work and excellent showing, how different the band now is from that courageous group of sixteen led by Richard Stewart . . . Our Band” of two years ago. The first appearance of the Band was at the Conemaugh football game. The members were not so confident and consequently did not attract much at- tention . . . but it was a start. From then on they progressed rapidly, playing at the colorful Ferndale game and at Windber. Their progress was such that they received an invitation to play in the championship Windber-John Harris game. Here the band made a splendid showing and received many favor- able comments. Other engagements of the year were at various community festivities, such as the Hallowe'en celebration, the Community Night at High School, and the Christmas Party at the Grove. The season was closed by the appearance as hosts in the state finals of the Forensic League Contests held at Johnstown High School. It can undoubtedly be said that the band enjoyed for their first year a highly successful one Next year we expect the band to go much farther in gaining many more honors.

Getting in place! Coaching soprano and alto soloists! Mr. Horner as the new director! Forty-five girls! What is it? The Girls' Choral Club. Why the hustle and bustle? For the Christmas Cantata. How can we present this Cantata for the Home and School Club by next week if you girls don't get down to work?'', we hear our exasperated director expostulate. Listen for your pitch, one-two-three—sing. The Cantata commences. We will omit the solos this time. Good, now we are coming to the final chorus. Chairs brought from the music room. Clang-plang-bang! Now all is quiet again and the weary femmes are seated. Three days have passed. The same group of girls is assembled on the familiar stage. The curtain is closed. Below are seated the members of the Home and School Club. Jangled nerves, twittering girls, shaky knees, in fact every member of the chorus is anxiously awaiting the big moment . Everyone in her place? All ready? Draw the curtain, Mr. Horner calm- ly directs. Trembling voices start, now they swell out. Girls are getting confident. That was fine. Mr. Horner looks well pleased. All are ready to swing into the final measures of the majestic chorus. This went swiftly, it's almost finish- ed. Hold it! Hold it , Mr. Homer motions. And that marks the end of the Christmas Cantata! MUSIC Row I—Zubal, Little, B. WilPams. M. Evans. Moore. A. Miller, C. Kerr. Daily, Campbell, Watkins, Geist, Ferq, B. Neafaclt, Stiffler, Yarotsky, B.

And thus, amid minglea cries of horror and amazement, came the de- mand for a mixed chorus. As in other years, other musical groups organized at the beginning of the year, Orchestra: yes. Gins' Choral Club: yes. Boys Chorus: yes. Mixed Chorus ... no! Finally, by April, we had a mixed chorus. Grimly resolved, with Forensics drawing neai, we began to dig into some difficult pieces. Duno . . . melodious . . . hard, but it didn t throw us. And then Bach's Come, Holy Spirit . It was a beautiful piece, but how we struggled! And then the Forensics. As hosts, we would have the privi- lege of entering the finals. Some fun! And after the smoke cleared, Westmont had come through with a second place. Not bad! The Mixed Chorus helped to give the Seniors a royal send-off at Commencement, and thus concluded a hurried but successful season. MUSIC BOYS' GLEE CLUB Row I—R.

The Boys' Glee Club, the result of the constant urging of Mr. Horner, is composed of a small group of local Bing Crosbys. Their ambition is to blend their voices in harmony but the result of their efforts is sometimes drastic. On several occasions, however, the Glee Club has successfully managed to struggle through the sharps and flats in nearly perfect harmony. Our noon- time Swiss yodlers and Lanny Rosses have been organized to work as a unit in preparing themselves to enter the Forensic League contests as a part of the Mixed Chorus. With the plugging spirit of a football or basketball team the boys have whipped themselves into a talented and creditable group. Backed by the unending efforts of Mr. Horner, they have come ;o appreciate the beauty of music and interpret it to the remainder of the school.

Mr. Chairman!” The 1934 debate season is on! Westmont-Upper Yoder High School presents its future lawyers and public speakers! Before the high school body, the ''ayes , backed by Elaine Paries, Dorothy Getty, Charlotte Singer, and Edward Kern, iirst presented their hard-sought points in opposi- tion to the equally well prepared noes , Jack Ringold, Margaret Williams, Roberta McIntyre, and Catherine Collins. The timely subject was: Re- solved: That the United States should adopt the essential features of the British System of Radio Control and Operation . Having fully convinced the Freshies that there was more than one side to that innocent statement, our debaters proceeded successfully through Southern County eliminations at Southmont, defeating Dale and Southmont and winning the privilege of meet- ing Ebensburg-Cambria for the county championship. Here, however, they met their equals, and after a period of closely contested debating, Ebensburg emerged victorious, receiving two 2-1 decisions. Our teams, nevertheless, had entered sufficient debates to give its members a substantial background for any future oratorical exploits, and all the knowledge acquired under the coaching of Mr. Tomb, Miss Esenwein, and Miss McGann will prove an asset. Branching into the wider fields of speaking, Russell Yost, as an extemp- oraneous speaker on Why Men Fight , and John Werry, speaking on Dem- ocracy also represented our school in the Forensic League Contests. Russel Yost proceeded to the finals. With a background of careful and untiring preparation, these boys sincerely put across their ideas, and have establish- ed within themselves true speaking powers. SPEAKING DRAMATICS Footlights, spotlights, wigs; rehearsals, soft music, romance; shipwrecks, bold pirates, ghosts. The magic of Broadway entrapped, and released in words of the maestros, Moli- ere, Barrie, and Shakespeare. The stage with its farce, its laughter, its glamor . . the play-room of grown-ups in need of a thrill . . . the parade for the fun of the ages. This is drama. All this richness, group after group in our high school has found in the fun of giv- ing a play. 1921— Graceful fairies, lunar moths, clownish bumpkins; Midsummer-Night's Dream on the Mound; mellow lights, eager audience, trained actors. 1922— Shakespeare aqain upon the Mound; fair Rosalind, subtle Jacques, the wench Audrey; romance, life.

The play half over; June ra:n again falls in Sherwood forest; spectators stay to see fat Friar Tuck eat his huge meat pie, the good rogue Robin rescue Maid Mar- ion, Little John make love, the many merry men make the forest ring with their songs and the whiz of their arrows. 1924— A crowd of one thousand sees the picturesque play . . . Twelfth Night ; we have built a tradition; the full spirit of Shakespeare is abroad this night. Twelfth Night” has bought the book display rack in the library. The Birds' Christmas Carol on the stage in the library. 1925— A fairy village of old England rises on the Mound; our last outdoor play; quaint costumes, languid living, a real romance; Will the fairy houses ever rise again? Scrooge shows us how to celebrate Christmas. Pomander Walk pays for our magazine rack. Girls' Club gives She Stoops to Conquer ; this in turn gives us the Rheims engravings. 1926— At last we have an auditorium ... a play house. The Alumni and Quality Street initiate it sans curtain, sans drapes; the Seniors with the Road to Yesterday dedicate the furnished stage, and hang the tapestry in the front hall. 1927— The Rider of Dreams , The Turtle Dove , Indian Summer , “The Silver Lin- ing send the Seniors to Washington; Little Women helps the Girls’ Club to place their bronze tablet in the hall; the musical clubs present Lelawala, the Maid of Niagara .

I feel fairly confident about the play, yet a most peculiar feeling ha? come over me. It is what might be called pre- stage fright. The night of the play has arrived. Everyone is busy back-stage, dress- ing, hurrying, scurrying around for his property. We can hear that milling audience outside the curtains. At this moment they seem to be hundreds of vultures ready to pounce upon one for the slightest mistake. Of course, that is all imagination. Nine cases out of ten, the audiences are with the actors; they want to like, rather than dislike you. The curtain rises. Ah! There goes Lady Windermere! That's fine, good diction, everything's going to be fine. Holy smokes, there's my cue. Now listen, speak slowly and distinctly; don't forget the tea; and tell Lady Windermere to walk more front stage. Here goes! A period of two hours and fifteen minutes has elapsed . . . the play is over. I find myself all relaxed, ready to cave in. But the play is over and no mistake. It must have been a success!

All difficulties were finally smoothed out in a most satis- factory manner by the fearless detective, Duff. Lady Whittersby moaned and shivered about the stage to the great delight of the audience. Ahmed pro- duced cold chills as he silently weaved' through his part, brandishing a wick- ed-looking Arabian dagger in his hand in an unpleasant, business-like man ner. CAPTAIN RED-LEGS With a very clever plot, this play was adapted from Emma Lindsay Squirer's story, The Laughing Pirate”. Captain Red-Legs was an excellent pirate captain, an extraordinary duellist, and a gentleman possessed of a marvelous knock-out punch. The transition from each rousing scene was made through the guise of a reader, the play being presented as a drama- tization of the story that was being read to two small boys. LUNCHEON FOR SIX The third play was a light farce portraying the trials of Lois Osborne when she attempted to impersonate an Irish maid for the benefit of Mr. Bar- ton, a business friend of her father's. Mary Wilcox, a friend of Lois', did her best, unsuccessfully, to vamp Mr. Barton. Lois was a pert little package with a very snappy temper, which proved her undoing as far as love interests went, while Mary's cool scheming almost won her her point, if not the approval of the Osborne family”.

ATHLETICS The school is commonly thought of as a means of de- veloping the student mentally, but students are also develop- ing physically. As in many colleges, physical education is now compulsory in the public schools. The age in which we are living is spoiling our bodies by outlawing the exercise which once came fram daily labor. Modern conveniences have made living easy; easy in some ways, but hard on our physical make-up. Modern vehicles of transportation have made walking a task; housework has been made simple by modern day domestic improvements; machinery has taken the place of the day laborer. So we must have a method of building up the constitutions of our young people in prepara- tion for disease and sickness. This task has been taken up by the public schools on the gym floors and on the athletic fields. There is, too, something more important than body building in school athletics . . . character building. There is nothing the average coach recommends more in the con- test than sportsmanship. Courage and aggressiveness are also demanded in the games. Each year the boys in Westmont-Upper Yoder High School who have proved themselves outstanding in having well equipped and healthy bodies and in having been suc- cessful players through their fighting spirit, sportsmanship, and cooperation with the other members of the team, are awarded with the traditional “UWY sweater. ATHLETICS FOOTBALL Football at Westmont-Upper Yoder High School was a success in the fall of 1933. From nine contests with prominent elevens of the Greater Johnstown District, the Red and Gray- back emerged victorious seven times. These victories were the result of many factors: the physical abilities of the boys, the cooperation in spirit of all concerned, and the excellent training, both physically and morally, which the boys receiv- ed from Coaches Engh, Siegel, and Marshall. The two de- feats were ct the hands of the most prominent schools in the community, one of these Windber High School, State champ- ions of the P. I. A. A. The other loss was to Femdale High School in the annual night classic at the Point Stadium. The teams defeated by the Hill-toppers were as follows: Bames- boro, Patton, Bolivar, Ebensburg, Somerset, Franklin, and Conemaugh. Success on the gridiron depends to a large extent on the spirit with which the game is played. In order to bolster this enthusiasm, cheer leaders are seen in action at the football contests They also contribute their part at the basketball frays and at the pep meetings. Cheer-leaders in 1933-'34 were Marie McClintock, Emma Grace Hammond, George Lyon, and Dwight DeShong. The first three are to receive UWv awards for their efforts. ATHLETICS ■ Row I — Stitt. Sislc.

Of the forty-six boys remaining on the squad in November, seven will be lost to the team next year. Graduation in June removes Hammerle, But- ler, Wenderoth, Longwell, Whitten, Mesteller, and Beam from Price Memor- ial Field. To these athletes who brought success to Westmont-Upper Yoder, may their training at Westy bring success in later years. “Here it comes! Shift over, you guys'! It's an off-tackle! Hammerle, the Red and Gray field general is doping out plays. This is only one of Ham's many specialties. The boys will miss Clarence's good judgment next year. Wenderoth, the first of the class of 1934 to eam his “UWY was a shifty tackle. His quick attack on the opponents' forward wall proved a handicap to the opposition's offense. Injury kept Windy out of the line-up late in his Senior year. Longwell, backfield man on the second string for two years was shifted in his Senior year to the first line, playing both end and tackle positions at various times. He put fire and pep into every play. Butler, 185 pound tackle v as cn many occasions, the fifth man in the enemy's backfield. Butts proved a handicap to the opposition, too, when a play was called through Elmer and he resisted; for 185 pounds of flesh and bone are hard to move. A hard fast end was John Mesteller. Mesty was always taking 'em out of the play and oft, out of the battle. An opponent who disagreed with Mesteller was making his own bed. Dead-eye Stitt, big, hard, but friendly, proved a perplexing problem in September when the Coaches tried Stitty in the backfield. Before the open- er, however, Bill was back on the line where he played excellent ball. Though he was little, he was hard; though his face tightened up and his teeth were gritted, he was friendly . . . Bill Schneck. Schneck was the hard hitting guard who stuck right in there until the final whistle blew. Schneck will be a terror in his senior year. ATHLETICS Zimmer, the fast charging boy from Brownstown was invaluable as a blocker and ball carrier. Utsey was also excellent in the aerial line, inter- cepting, passing, and receiving. Three years of experience should show up in his senior year. Who's that twisting, squirming, and dodging through the mass of play- ers? He's down! But nol They finally nailed him . . . but what a gain! That 180 pounder got him. He surely must be hurt No, there he rises and goes back for the huddle. That's Berkley, one of the quickest men on the squad, who'll be back again next year. Who’s that big ape-like fellow standing at the tackle position? Is he eager! There he goes. He's got him too. No man was ever too big for John Sisk. Sisk also has another season before him. Wilbur Shomo was another problem. “Wilb was still certain at the be- ginning of his third year that he was a backfield man. Coach had different ideas though and Wilb starred on the extreme end of the right wing, break- ing up end runs and receiving passes. Walter Streilein, on the bench for two years, but always willing, found himself on the bench again, at the beginning of his third year. On many occasions Coach found room for him and Streilein continued to strengthen the varsity forward wall. Walter promises good returns next year. The score keepers ran into difficulty when they came to the name of the end player—Kasonovich. Sport followers did not believe in September that Pete was capable of taking on a Varsity position. Maybe Pete wasn't so sure himself. He soon proved that he had what it takes. ATHLETICS Often in the second and fourth quarters, when a lineman began to breathe hard and he lacked the push, Coach Engh spoke a few words into the ears of a husky blond boy and in rushed Eugene Reik. Coach's chances of having made a mistake were very meager when Reik went in. Here's luck, Eugene. John Grove is a splendid prospect. Back for two more years, John has already earned fame as a ball carrier. Fleet-footed, John managed to elude the foremost of his pursuers. When he started for the end, the opposition was practically defeated. A fifteen yard gain for Westmont was inevitable. Last but among the foremost is Happy Spuhler, freshman. No pros- pects are too good for “Happy . He has three full years of success on the gridiron before him. Hill-toppers may depend on big returns from Mr. Spuh- ler's attempts. Happy's frame of mind might have a lot to do with his suc- cess, also. George Statler, manager of the team, deserves credit with the rest of the squad for the admirable way in which he aided the team through the season. George's four years of labors were not in vain for his senior year brought him a UWY . Here is where a word of praise should go to the “subs . Who take the bumps? Who work hardest? . . . The subs . What do they get? . . . Nothing ; so they say. But they know better. Who has the experience? Who get the empty positions next year? The subs. Even Red Grange was once a sub. After ail anything worth while in this world must be worked for. So fight on, Subs! We are aii with you. Beam, White, W.

The Northern countians made only six first downs to Westmont’s eleven. Berkley, Hammerle, and Zimmer scored the touchdowns. WESTMONT, 14—BOLIVAR, 7 A plucky Bolivar team proved to be the second Red and Gray victory. Bolivar, former opponent to the Red and Gray junior varsity, fought hard and was successful in carrying the ball over the Westmont goal line in the final frame. Hammerle, however, sifted through the line for both scores for West- mont, aiding Westmont in winning 14-7. Berkley's toe accounted for the two points after touchdowns. V ESTMONT, 13—CONEMAUGH, 6 The Red and Gray outfit again succeeded in defeating the highly toated Conemaugh team by a score of 13-6. Although Westmont held a 17-8 ad- vantage in first downs, they could break through the stiff defense of Cone- maugh only twice, while the opponents scored once. In the second quarter the Hill-toppers' big drive netted a touchdown with Hammerle carrying the ball over the goal line. With another big drive in the third quarter, Berkley, carried the ball over for the final score. ATHLETICS WESTMONT, 0—FERNDALE, 14 Femdale, Westmont's greatest rival, turned out to be too strong for the Red and Gray gridders in the annual night fray at the Point. Several times the Westmonters advanced within the Femdale 10-yard strip, only to lose the ball. Femdale, though outscored 13-10 in first downs, managed to push the pigskin over the Westmont goal line twice, adding both extra points. Four thousand spectators witnessed the affair. WESTMONT, 6—PATTON, 0 Patton, Westmont's fifth opponent made a valiant but vain attempt to hold the Hill-toppers under their sway in a tussle on Price Memorial Field. Though the boys of Coach Engh held the pigskin in their possession the greater part of the affair, they scored only one touchdown. Hammerle, the only gridder to cross either goal line, featured along with Spuhler, who late in the second quarter caught a Patton lad after having run forty yards for what seemed an inevitable touchdown. WESTMONT, 6—WINDBER, 13 The sixth game of the Westmont grid season found the boys stacked up against Windber on Delaney Field, Windber 13-6. Windber, state champs in 1933, were forced to the limit to defeat the underdogs from Westmont. West- mont's eight first markers were made almost entirely through the highly tout- ed Blue and White forward wall. Windber, first scorers, succeeded in the final frame, in breaking the tie created in the third quarter when, after a lonq march of 50 yards, Hammerle slid off right tackle for Westmont's only score. Windber's famed backfield, best in the State, were able to chalk up only 10 first downs WESTMONT, 25—FRANKLIN. 6 Westmont decidedly defeated Franklin eleven 25-6 at the Point Stadium for its fifth victory. In the third frame with the score 12-6 with Franklin in scoring position, the Westmonters were a rather gloomy looking team; but Grove, Sophomore back, turned the tide of battle by racing 80 yards for West- mont's third score. Two more touchdowns followed in the final frame. Berk- ley, Hammerle, and Spuhler all score. WESTMONT, 12—EBENSBURG, 0 With that same fight and spirit shown in the other games, Westmont de- feated the Ebensburg-Cambria Township boys by the score of 12-0. West- mont's constant ground gaining netted them 12 first downs to 4 for the losers. Berkley's 35 yard run in the second quarter gave the Hill-toppers their first score. Near the end of the third quarter Zimmer's short pass to Kasonovich gave the winners their final score. WESTMONT, 6—SOMERSET, 0 Westmont's final game on November 25 served as a fitting climax to a highly successful Red and Gray season. Somerset High School was the vic- tim of two successive Westmont passes in the second period which resulted in a touchdown for Westmont. Grove was the receiver of the heave which resulted in the game's only score. Both teams muffed scoring chances in other parts of the game. ATHLETICS Row I- -Watson. Townsend. Mor- an. Lewis, Thomas.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL With Miss Elizabeth Groer as their capable coach, the Westmont Girls' Varsity Basketball team played through a successful season. The Westmont team, a member of the Girls' Iri-County League, won two games in the league and learned from their exper- ience with the opponents that sportsmanship is a most necessary characteristic of a qood team. The co-capiains. Sara Lewis at guard. Julia Moran and Jane Townsend both at for- ward. alternately took charge of the games. They displayed excellent ability in their re- spective positions. Mary Haws and Kat Swank made a perfect center combination. Kat beinq fast and Mary alert. Barbara Henderson and Frances Thomas kept the opponents' score down by their fast quarding. Barbara Hager efficiently filled the vacancy left by Swank. Dorothy Cornelius was the triple threat girl, playing forward, center, and side-center. Dorothy Korr. Betty. Longwell and Claire Hess wore always ready to step into their positions when called upon. Leona Schlesinger willingly and ably gave her time and efforts to manag- ing the team. The following girls received their letters: Sara Lewis, Mary Catherine Swanic, Julia Moran, Jane Townsend. Dorothy Cornelius. Barbara Hager, Barbara Henderson, Frances Thomas, and Leona Schlesinqer. Numerals were awarded to Dorothy Korr and Betty Longwell. PORTAGE—Portage. Westmont's first rival, made a brave but futile attempt to over- come rhe Red ar.d Gray sextet, but were sent o the end of the line by a score of 19-16. ALTOONA---As hostess to the Altoona team, the Westmont girls did a very good job. They surrendered this game to their opponents by 31-24. but were masters of a hard, well-played game. PORTAGE---To prove that the girls were not overthrown by their last game, they staged an excellent comeback as guests at Portage. They played a splendid game and certain- ly deserved to win . . . and did, beating Portage by two points . . . 29-27. FERNDALE—Once more the old rivals meet. This time on Westmont's floor. The qaroe between Ferndalo ard Westmont! And what a game it was. Taking the lead from the start of the game, our girls held the points up to the final quarter of play. Despite a nerve-racking game, the Westmont lassies were finally passed by only four points . . . 19-15. WINDBER—Westmont next had Windber for their quests. This game was a fast, well- fought, and exciting one. Although the Westmont girls did their best, they lost by one point ... 19-18. WINDBER—After a lapse of two weeks. Wostmont next visited Windber. They were evidently determined to win the game or be disabled in the attempt, for they put every- thing they had into the fight and we give the girls a lot of credit for playing such a stiff game, although they had to follow the lead by 36-25. ALTOONA- -Recalling the last Altoona game, the Rod and Gray sextet travelled to Altoona with their, mind made up to revenge themselves. Although they were disappoint- ed because of their defoot, 29-11, they realized that they lost to a good team. FERNDALE -To close the season, the qirls again battled their old rivals . . . Ferndale. Since Ferndale proved stronger than Westmont the results of the game were not as hoped, and Westmont was defoatod 17-8. In a season of victories and dofeats no better team- work was found in the Tri-County League than displayed by the Westmont girls. ATHLETICS Row l---Schneck, Spuhler, Sob- ditch. Stitt. Sisk. Zimmer.

BOYS' BASKETBALL Under the able direction of Coaches Engh and Siegel, the Red and Gray cage squads were successful in winning nine of their sixteen scheduled games. Westmont-Upper Yoder, member of the Tri-County League, compos- ed of six teams, competed in ten of the league games, breaking even in the number of contests won and lost. Of the six games played with teams out- side of the league, Westmont won four. The Red and Gray squad was again invited to enter the St. Francis cage tourney, held at Loretto, and was success- ful in reaching the semi-finals, only to be defeated by Femdale, winners of the tourney. In reaching the semi-finals, Westmont defeated Bellwood and Martinsburg. Of the six Red and Gray basketeers to earn letter awards during the 1933-34 season, only one man graduated in '34 . . . Alfred Sobditch. With such a squad remaining for the next year, Westmont should enjoy an even better season than that of 1934. Each member of the squad has developed himself into an experienced and well versed player. Alfred Sobditch, only member of the squad to graduate, filled a guard position capably. Al proved almost tireless in fighting for Westmont-Up- per Yoder. Carmon Berkley, diminutive forward was one of the most clever ball handlers on the squad. Speedy and aggressive, Berkley kept the opposition constantly on the alert for his fast breaks and side shots. Bill Stitt, lanky center, played excellently at the pivot position despite the handicaps of a wrenched knee Though a steel brace covered his knee, Bill covered the floor space quickly and fought with tenacity befitting a bull-dog. Arthur Zimmer, too, deserves credit for the zeal and eagerness with which he achieved the honor of being the team's second highest scorer. Ferndale, especially, found Zimmer unsuppressable. When the final whistle shrilled, Arthur's man was usually anxious ... (to spend the next few days in bed). No limit can be placed to the credit which Raymond Spuhler deserves. Though only a Freshman, Spuhler was high scorer for the season. Spuhler, a guard, commonly filled Stitt's place in the pivot position. Spuhler excelled in leaping up and tipping the ball through the straps. No matter how big the opponents were, Spuhler succeeded in dumping two or three shots and often emerged from the fray with six or seven twin pointers. ATHLETICS John Grove, Sophomore, seemed to be another outstanding Red and Gray prospect. One of the fastest men on the court, Grove was always quick to fall back on defense when the opposition gained possession of the ball. His quick starting often found him far ahead of his opponent and John succeeded in chalking up a number of double deckers. To Phil Price, manager of the squad, goes credit for his enthusiasm in performing every possible service for the team. The second team, too, deserves mention for the creditable way in which it relieved the varsity of its duty, during lax moments of the game. The subs were: John Sisk, Robert Dannies, Joseph Charp, Larry Smith, and William Schneck. WESTMONT, 26—ALUMNI, 32 The Westmont team put up a stiff fight, but lost a close decision to the more experienced Alumni team, after leading at the half by 14-13. WESTMONT, 25—EBENSBURG, 22 Opening up their scholastic basketball campaign on the Hill-top floor, the Red and Gray defeated the Ebensburg team in a very close game. It was in the last few minutes that Berkley, of Westmont, sent the Hill-toppers in to lead with two field goals. WESTMONT, 16—WINDBER, 26 Westmont and Windber began the Tri-County Basketball League at Windber when the latter pulled through with a last minute victory. Zimmer, Westmont's forward, helped his team greatly by scoring two field goals and four fouls. WESTMONT, 23—ALTOONA, 18 The Red and Gray outfit gave Johnstown Passers a hard battle in order feating Altoona on the Westmont floor by a close score. The 1933 league champions gave the Hill-toppers a hard battle, but Westmont's superiority was shown in the last half. WESTMONT, 23—PORTAGE, 29 Westmont-Upper Yoder High lost its second Tri-County game to Portage High, after being squeezed out in the last quarter. Berkley and Sisk came through to score eight and six points, respectively, for their team. WESTMONT, 17—JOHNSTOWN, 22 The Red and Gray outfit gave Johnstown Passers a hard battle in order to win by a score of 22-17. Berkley and Zimmer proved to be thorns to the opponents by scoring thirteen points for their side! WESTMONT, 26—ALLEGANY, 34 The Hill-toppers travelled to Cumberland to play the Allegany High team which registered its fifteenth consecutive win by defeating Westmont again. It was not until the last half that Westmont found itself trailing the veteran combination. WESTMONT, 20—FERNDALE, 25 The Red and Gray lost a close decision to their most ancient rival, Fern- dale High by a very close score. The entire game was a seesaw affair until the fourth quarter when Femdale forged ahead to win. WESTMONT, 26—CATHOLIC HIGH, 21 Westmont opened relationships with Johnstown Catholic High School by defeating the Crimson and Gold quintet on the Westmont floor. The game swayed back and forth until late in the final stanza, the Red and Gray outfit emerging the victor. WESTMONT, 26—ALTOONA, 21 Happy Spuhler, Red and Gray Freshman, spurted out in an extra period to score three field goals and with his team-mates holding Altoona High in check, defeated the Blair Countians for the second time during the 33 cage season. The Westmonters led until the closing moment when the game went into a tie. WESTMONT, 42—WINDBER, 23 The Hill-toppers turned the tables on Coach Allen’s Windber squad on the Westmont floor. The game was sweet revenge to the Red and Gray lads who had been previously defeated by Windber. The game was close for two quarters but the second half found Westmont holding a decided advantage. WESTMONT, 35—CATHOLIC HIGH, 21 The Westmonters again downed the boys from Catholic High School, this time by a larger margin of 14 points. This game, played on the Eighth Ward floor, was a Westmont affair throughout. WESTMONT, 28—FERNDALE, 21 Westmont pulled one of its happiest surprises out of the bag by outscor- ing the Femdale Yellow Jackets on Ferndale's floor by a margin of seven points. The fray, close throughout, was featured by the stellar work of Arth- ur Zimmer who scored 17 of Westmont's 28 points. WESTMONT, 23—ALLEGANY, 49 Allegany High, succeeded in repeating their early season victory over Westmont, on the Westmont floor, 49-23. The Red and Gray lads seemed in a slump and were completely outplayed. WESTMONT, 24—JOHNSTOWN, 40 The Blue and Black team from Johnstown High succeeded in tightening their hold on the Tri-County League Championship at the expense of West- mont on the downtown floor. The Hill-toppers were still “in a slump”. WESTMONT, 42—EBENSBURG, 24 Westmont found themselves again, after a lapse, to defeat Ebensburg High School on the county seat floor. The Ebensburg lads losing their second game of the season to Westmont, were never threatening to Coach Engh's boys. WESTMONT, 49—PORTAGE, 19 The final tilt of the season found Westmont stacked up against Portage High School on the Hill-top floor. The Hill-toppers were after revenge and when the smoke of battle cleared away, Westmont-Upper Yoder had chalked up another victory by a large margin of 30 points. ST. FRANCIS TOURNAMENT WESTMONT, 35—MARTINSBURG, 15 Westmont played Martinsburg in its opening tournament game and won easily with a one-sided score. The Hill-topper's Freshman, Spuhler, came through in grand style by scoring 19 points. WESTMONT, 43—BELLWOOD, 24 The Westmont cagers easily defeated the Bellwood team by another de- cisive score. Spuhler proved a big spark plug by registering 8 field goals enabling Westmont to secure its second victory in the tournament. WESTMONT, 16—FERNDALE, 19 The semi-finals of the tournament found Westmont Upper-Yoder stacked up against Femdale fcr the third time of the season. The Yellow Jackets were returned the victors in Westmont's second defeat at the hands of Femdale dur- ing the cage season.

TRACK TEAM Track is not an important feature to the students of the average high school, but it has a prominent place in West- mont. From one hundred and seventy-five boys attending Westmont-Upper Yoder High School, thirty-five boys turned out in the spring of '34 to take a fling at the various track and field sports. Three of these boys were already letter- men in track. At the publication of the Phoenician, track activities were just begun. The team had intended, however, to hold at Price Memorial Field, a Class Meet, a Sophomore-Freshman Meet, the annual Junior Pitt Meet, and an Invitation Meet with West- mont as sponsor. Coach Engh also hoped to have the squad participate in the University of Pittsburgh Meet, the District 6 of P. I. A. A. Meet, and the Penn Relays. Talk of a dual meet also circulated. The Red and Gray boys are fortunate in having at their disposal the facilities of Price Memorial Field. In future years Westmont should prove to be one of the most outstanding track schools in western Pennsylvania. Letter-men of 1933—Eugene Reik, Morton Cohen, and James Longwell. Manager of 1934—Jack Truxal. ATHLETICS SCHOOL CALENDAR t SEPTEMBER: II. Beginning of another year; new faces, new spirit, new studies, but same old HALL OF BRAIN- TEASING . 23. First football clash!
