1937 Yearkbook

~

N ORDER to express a sinall

measure of our gratitude and thankfulness for the help and services they have given to us, the Senior路 Class of :i937 hereby 路 dedicate this page of their annual to the business men of State College.

To Kenneth Gramley Haines, the Class of 1937 respectfully dedicate this book. His painstaking guidance and devotion to the class are two things which we are certain never to forget.

In the making of this annual the Staff has endeavored to create it with the fact in mind that it will be for many of us the single bond to bring to us the memories of our associations and friendships in High School.

The High School which is in use by the borough at the present 1time has a long and rather interesting history. In this sketch we shall tell of the various construction and other work which has been carried on since the conception of the eritire building.

The High School was built in two parts, by High School is meant the part of the building which was built before 1931. The first part of this building was built in the years of 1913 and 1914. The part which was built at that time included what we now know as Mr. Williams', Miss Morrow's, Mr. Kemmerer's, Miss Jones', and Mr. Strong's rooms. It also included the "Old Library," the halls, and Mr. Passmore's office.

In 1919 the rest of the old "High School was constructed which included Mr. Haines'-,- Mrs. Ridenour's, the Library, Miss Burns', and Miss Jordan's rooms and 'the auditorium. From this time, until .1931, no more building was done.路

In 1931 the "New Building" was erected on the spot which had previously been a tennis court. -This section included the gymnasium, all of the rooms facing Nittany Avenue, Miss Smith's and Mr. Stoddart's rooms, the Home Ee rooms, the shop and art room. At the time of building the heating plants were separate, one -in th_e present art ro~m and _the other in the basement of the "Old High School.''

In 1936, Mr. Stover's, Mr. Jamison's, and Mr. Gackenbach's rooms were built onto the original Nittany A venue building. The heating plants were then combined under the new annex, which finishes the building up to the present time.

Senior Class History 1937 In September 1925 about forty young hopefuls, wide-eyed and excited, made their debut in Primary School. We, the young hopefuls, were destined to become the Charter members of the high school's Nineteen Thirty-seven graduating class.

We spent our first six years in learning, growing and preparing for our high school career. Our first six years of recesses were occupied with jumping rope, Cowboys and Indians, shooting marbles and playing hopscotch.

On entering seventh grade in 1931 we became more serious. Miss Smith and Mr. Serff took us under their protective wings for the first three years of our high school term. Student Council was a new experience. John Harkins, Ed Parkinson, Harlan Hostetter, and Bill Reish were our representatives.

We did nothing in seventh and eighth grade that could be written in the panels of our school's history. Keeping our mouths closed and our eyes and ears open we tried our best to absorb knowledge for future use. Penelope Mielenz and John Harkins were presented with the American Legion Awards and Paul Corl received the 0. W. Houtz award for excellence in shop at the end of our eighth year.

Time marches on! In our ninth year we began to write our names m brighter colors. Our girls' class basketball team won the interclass championship. Our boys were inter-class champions in basketball, too. We sent girls to the G. A. C. board meetings. The boys who won Junior High Varsity Football letters were: Anthony Droege, John Harkins, Lee Zonge, Leroy Hartswick, Cecil Bloom, Elwood Horner, Ed Parkinson, William Eminhizer, Harold Jones, Walter Hosterman, William Reish and Stanley Osman. Leroy Hartswick and Benjamin Overholts won their Junior High Varsity Basketball letters.

Penelope Mielenz won the A. A .U. W. scholarship metal that year.

In our Sophomore year our class practically doubled itself. F or the first time, Sophomores and Juniors were placed in the same homerooms. That year we elected our first class officers. They were Ruth Kistler, president, John Harkins, vice president, Mary Droege, secretary and June Miller, treasurer.

MAROON AND GRAY

During that year our girls became interested in cheer-leading and we had four girls on the squad. Nancy Hargrave became the drum-major for our band .

Some of our boys and girls began to make names for themselves on the Varsity Squads. 'Tony Droege, Irvin 路walker, and Lee Zange received football letters .

Harold-Jones, Walter Hosterman and Bill Reish were presented with soccer awards. Cecil Bloom won a track letter. In this, our tenth year, we first attempted to break into society by giving a Sophomore Hop in May. This dance was acclaimed a social success by our upperclassmen and our account book vouched that it was a financial one. Cordelia Beach and Penelope Mielenz won the P.T.A. scholarship medals and Penelope Mielenz received the A. A. U. W. scholarship medal.

John Harkins, president, Penelope Mielenz, vice president, Mary Droege, secretary and Martha McCormick, treasurer, led our Junior year. Together with the Seniors and Sophomores we helped give an operetta "And It Rained" in which four of our Juniors, Betty Wettereau, Cordelia Beach, John Harkins, and David Holahan had leading roles.

Many of our class were in the singing and dancing choruses. The money earned from this project was used to help pay for the new band uniforms. In our last year as underclassmen we saw the band and cheer-leaders wear their unifortns. Our next stage production was three one-act plays, "The Teapot on the Rocks," "The Willow Pattern," and "The First Dress Suit". These plays 路 were under the direction of Gretchen Marquardt, an alumna of our high school. Next came the publication of our Junior Pipers. Robert K. Smith as editor and Penelope Mielenz as business manager headed the first staff and Harlan Hostetter as editor and Doris Ryan as business manager took charge of the second issue.

In the declamatory contest we were represented by Penelope Mielenz, Mary Haley and Robert Smith. All who attended the Junior Prom declared it a splendid dance. Martha McCormick and Ruth Kistler received letters for cheerleading. In our varsity sports we boasted some letter winners.

And this is how, dear friends, we spent our first eleven years, happy years, leading up to the last happy year of our high school life, which record you will find in the following pages.

The time is approaching when we will have to step into the places now held by the present Senior Class, and as a result, we have accomplished much.

In Athletics we boast of the following achievements: Dick Snyder Roberlt Blair, Philip Hetzel, Harry Whitmore, who won the All-Conference recognitions, Max Peters, Telford Koon, John Currier, and Don Clark won their letters in football. In soccer, Earl Stavely, Lawrence Bender, and Walter Parsons showed themselves worthy. Dick Snyder and Telford Koon won awards in basketball.

The Junior Plays, "Wits End," "The Castle of Mr. Simpson," "Wild Hobbyhorses," under the direction of Miss Burns, and the Junior Prom were very successful.

William Harkins, Eugene Lederer, and Mary Jean Popp were our representatives in debating. .

Jean Lininger, Jean Babcock, Donald White, Irma Schlow, Elsie Brockway, and Jean Bechler were on the Piper Staff and showed that they were capable along such lines. Mary Betty Anderson and Jean Weaver were the Junior Editors.

We have had a very enjoyable and a very busy year, and we hope that next year we can carry on from where the Seniors have stopped. We are looking forward to next year and we hope that we will enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed this year.

This year the debating team opened its schedule with a set of no-decision debates with Lock Haven. For this first debate the speakers were Frank Mitch and Robert Smith, affirmative, and 'Nilliam Harkins and Eugene Lederer, negative. Two weeks after this debate, a negative team composed of Dean Clyde and William Harkins defeated an affirmative team from Huntingdon, at Huntingdon. In a return debate Robert Smith and Phyllis Watkins defeated Huntingdon's negative. Then the next week the affirmative composed of Robert Smith and Frank Mitch lost to Tyrone's negative team, and the State negatives, Ruth Popp and Dean Clyde defeated Tyrone's affirmatives.

Double victories over Snowshoe and Lewistown followed in rapid order, with no new combinations of debaters used however. After the negative had defeated Freeburg, with 路 the affirmative bowing, another split decision was gained from Lock Haven, the negative winning from an extremely strong team. A non-decision debate was the next on the schedule followed by the National Forensic League District meet, at which we won two, tied three and lost one debates. Another double victory, with Altoona the victim, completed the unusually successful season.

The Duke of Maglue Christina, sister of Queen Elizabeth, is made quite indignant by her reception at the royal palace. The guard informs her that, due to .the edict of Corona, Duke of Maglue, she is unable to hire a maid. Upon asking King Henry the reason for Corona's rule, she finds that Corona was unanimously elected dictator at the last election when he handed out marked ballots to the populace. Furthermore, when Corona seized power, he reduced the royal allowance to a mere pittance which forces the royal family to do its own housework.

The situation is complicated by the return of Princess Henrietta from schooll. Queen Elizabeth does not want Henrietta to discover the position in which the royal family finds itself. However, "Murder will out, truth cannot be hid," and Henrietta discovered the scarcity of the family income when Pepo comes in with the vegetables for the King and Queen to prepare for the family dinner.

Corona informs the royal family that the princess must be married in a short while or else the royal family will be expected to reimburse the state for her education and upbringing. However if the Princess marries a wealthy American who can make donations to the State Treasury, the other expenses will be forgotten. The Queen is shocked at the thought that a Princess should marry a barbarian, but King Henry and Henrietta take more liberal views on the subject. ·The Duke tries to procure a husband for Henrietta from among the tourists who visit the palace daily. His first try is unsuccessful for he picks up Bill Morgan, Christina's husband. On the second cast he gets Dick, supposedly a wealthy young American, but who is really a penniless newspaper reporter.

Fortunately Henrietta and Dick fall in love with each other, thereby eliminating the major objection to their marriage. The King gives his consent to the match, but Queen Elizabeth is greatly upset by this whole affair. Henry never did care for royal life so he abdicates in favor of Queen -Elizabeth and accepts a position in the firm of William Morgan. His last act before abdication is to marry Henrietta and Dick by the King's leave despite the violent protests of Queen Elizabeth.

Norwegian Nights The merrymaking celebrating the marriage of Olga and Petter is suddenly interrupted by the arrest of Otter, G rieg's agent. The policeman apprehended Otter for upsetting an applecart, but Grieg, the composer, persuades the policeman to drop the charges. against Otter.

Otter has come to tell Grieg that he applied for Grieg's pension from the Norwegian government, in order that Grieg would be able to continue his work unmolested by financial worries. At this point, Herr Hagerup, Grieg's prospective father-in-law, informs Grieg that he has applied for this same pension to be given to an English opera singer, Marmaduke. Otter, realizing that Marmaduke is no singer, challenges Marmaduke to a contest in which Otter is decidedly the better singer.

Grieg is downcast by this action of Herr Hagerup, although Herr Bjornsen, Grieg's friend and a promising young poet, tries to console him. However Grieg plans to wander into the mountains to think and to dream.

The coming of Nina, Grieg's beloved, raises the spirits of Grieg manifold. ·The peasants also cheer the composer by their friendliness and singing. \Vhen · the peasants

have gone, Grieg tells Nina of his love for her in a song which came to him out of the night wind.

Later Grieg wanders into the mountains as he told Herr Bjornsen. When he had penetrated deeply the granduer of the hills he lies down to sleep. As he sleeps figures rise from the rocks among which he is lying, and dance and sing before his enchanted soul.

Each one of the short scenes during his dream is some portion of the Peer Gynt suite.

As time goes on, Grieg's friends are worrying for his safety for they know the treachery of the mountain paths. The peasants and a group of English tourists try to keep up the spirits of Nina and Herr Bjornsen by singing folksongs and pieces from light opera.

Their efforts having failed, they leave the two friends of Grieg to console each other, and return to the village. A short while after this Grieg returns and is overjoyed to find his devoted friends awaiting him. He tells them of his experiences in the mountain, which he intends to set down in music.

Just then a commotion is heard outside and the peasants rush in bearing Otter on their shoulders. Otter hands Grieg a telegram which states that Grieg's request for a pension had not been granted . Otter then finds that he gave Grieg the wrong telegram and it was Marmaduke's request which was turned down and Grieg's application was carried through.
