\ . STATE COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL

State College, Pennsylvania

Our School Year

Fall meant the beginning of the school year, highlighted by the thrill and color of fall sports and the playing and marching of the band.

The school year, planned by our school board, faculty, and

students, lay before us.

Well we remember the things we portray:

the work of the Piper, the Maroon and Gray staff, and the service clubs; the junior high class pictures, and such treasured events as the Senior Alumni.

Winter brought news of the Student Councils, winter sports, clubs, underclassmen, and school religious activities.

The A Cappello Choir and other im-

portant music organizations presented their concerts showing worthy achievement.

Amid hectic mid-year

study, the junior plays were given and well received.

With spring came a quickening purpose,

spirit and

sports,

endless

senior committee meetings, pageant

rehearsals,

and

the presentation of the senior prophecy. year

ended

The school with

senior

farewells, class day, and graduation.

WE, the class of 1950, are proud to dedicate this y~arbook to our teacher, counselor and guide, Miss Mildred Reigh.

She has been our grade counselor

through all our years of high school and has managed our troubles with an iiXpert hand.

Under her we have learned the fundamentals of mathematics, hard work,

and true friendship.

She has guided all of us toward the best in life and the

things which we most desire. Miss Reigh with quiet dignity has showed us the real meaning of honesty and hard work.

Through her "Thought for the Week" she has influenced many

of her classes toward higher principles in everyday life .

Her nimble mind has

quickly found our mistakes and put us on the right track again, whether it be in scheduling, math, or our own everyday troubles. Miss Reigh has set an example for all of us to follow; the seniors of 1950 will leave our high school finer persons for her teaching and friendship.

"Come o-o-on, State!

Fight, team, fight!"

What does that remind you of? You guessed it!

Football time is here again.

Remember those between-halves trips to Pero, the pep rallies, the victory parades through town, the Iron Kettle Game on Armistice Day, the end-of-the-season bonfire with speeches by the coaches and the senior players? Those soccer pep rallies at the Fairmount Avenue entrance came in for a large share of attention, too.

Don't you think, though, that the attenda nee at

the games could have been improved just a little? Oh, yes, we remember how hard it was to settle down to work in September; much deep concentration and will power were needed before we swung back ir.to school rhythm .

Why didn't we mention this before?

save the best 'til last.

We 7th graders are new in this school, but already we are beginning to feel at home . We are usually ties as junior high fortunate students strings); junior high

kept busy by such new activifootball (some of our most made the third and fourth basketball; junior high band

(we may sound "flat" once in a while but we're learning); and canteen every Saturday night from 7:00 until 9:00 p . m. We feel sure that we'll make out all right and we' re already looking forward to the day when we're seniors.

One Step Ahead Last year, State High was unknown territory to us as seventh graders.

This year we have

become familiar with the maze, and have acquired several new privileges. We have two clubs, the Rhythm Ramblers for boys and the Glee Club for girls, which are

entirely our own.

Many eighth graders are in

the junior high band .

Ten eighth grade boys

have received letters in junior high sports, and many of our classmates have won art awards for their drawings.

We now feel that we are r eally

a part of State High.

This year there were five ninth grade parties, which the home room mothers sponsored. Each home room and Mr . Burt Kessel were host and hostesses. Many classmates turned out for these enjoyable parties .

Many from our class have taken an active part in ninth grade chorus and junior high band.

The class of '53 is looking forward to just as much fun in senior high.

Go! Go! Go! State High went through one of its worst seasons in years with a record of one win, seven losses, and a tie.

Future teams should

enjoy all the good breaks, as the team of this year had their share of bad ones.

Early season injur-

ies to both the top lineman and back left the team not only physically, but morally, weaker. The fir_st game found Sonny Pearce, a junior, exploding for two long runs, giving State a shaky 14-13 win over Bigler Township.

Lock Haven, State played good ba 11 except for spots and lost a two touchdown decision.

Bad

beatings followed at the hands of

Hollidaysburg,

Lewistown.

Clearfield,

Next, State played

probably her best game, holding a fair Philipsburg club to a scoreless tie.

Tyrone, like. most of the

opposition, was too big for the Little Lions and powered out a 20-0 win.

In the final game,

State held firm for three plays, then bedlam broke loose and Bellefonte went on to win a 32-6 game and the "iron kettle." Seven of the starting eleven will never play football

for State

High again, so one must cross his fingers as he looks toward next year.

"Fight For State High, My Lads This year's junior varsity fell into the pattern set by last year's squad losing all its games. The high point of the season came against Bellefonte in a toss-up game that went to Bellefonte 6-2. Injuries to two key players late in the season hurt the club severely. The school awaits next year to see our junior high program start paying off. For the first time since 1941, junior high football was played in our school. Eighty-nine

boys, seventh, eighth, and ninth graders, reported. The group was separated into a regular interscholastic squad of 44 members; the remaining boys reported for midget football. Operating from the T formation, State's j-h'ers were undefeated in their four-game season . Future varsit'y elevens will be strengthened by the promising material uncovered in this crowd of young enthusiasts.

"March State High down the Field

In 1948 the Senior High School Band received two big needs. The most important was a band director, a postgraduate of Penn State and an excellent cornet player and musician. Mr. Franklin B. Hege did wonders with our band, which made people feel both surprised and proud. Mr. Hege's knowledge and experience in bands plus the other need, 7,000 dollars worth of new instruments contributed to his fine work. With his sense of humor, understanding way, and willingness to help, he is a friend and liked by all.

Eighty six students in senior high made up 路 the half time performers for State High football games this year.

With their director, Mr. Hege,

the band worked on seven different routines for the football games, climaxed by an exciting performance in the before-the-game Armistice Day ceremony at New Beaver field.

Aside from the

drills the band played a series of Sunday afternoon concerts in Boalsburg and Pine Grove Mills . Preparation for district and state events began immediately after pigskin season, and seniors,

Royal,

Hope,

Frances,

Ann,

Nancy, Jerry, Susan, Eleanor, Janie, and Dave, were worked into the Central District Band Festival at Philipsburg on January 20-22.

The band

also practiced for their annual spring concert which was given on March 18.

The band is now

looking forward to a series of parades such as those in which they participated last summer under the sponsorship of the Alpha Fire Company and in which they won a variety of prizes: $150 at Curwensville, First prize in Philipsburg, and Flemington.

State High' s Boote rs State's booters this year took three games out of a twelve-game schedule. The first win of the season came against Port Matilda in the fifth game by a score of 1-0. Rebersburg fell next by another 1-0 score. The final win of the sea son found State taking an 8-3 decision from Port Matilda. Aside from the games State won, our

Jackie Rimmey

boys played good ball against Spring Mills, losing 2-3 in overtime; Rebersburg, losing by a 0-1 score. State faced a strong league headed by Centre Hall and Millheim ; she had a scrappy club that improved greatly during the second half of the season. With only four seniors on the starting lineup, we hope to see a good soccer team from State College next year. 路

The Brains behind the Brawn The purpose of the Girls' Athletic Control Board, composed of seventeen girls from ninth grade through senior high, is to govern thE:? girls' sports program in State High . Some of the big gest jobs of the board were to set up sports schedules, to regulate games, to present sports awards to outstanding girls, and to help pro- _ mote good spirit throughout the school. G. A. C. was headed this year by Fritzi Alderfer, president; Mary Anne Hutchison, vicepresident; Margie Lewis, secretary; Patsy Farrell, treasurer; Eleanor Rowland, Student Council representat ive; and Miss Springer, faculty advisor.

Shin Skinners "Two, four, six, eight, who do we appre ciate?-Navy," still echoes from the hockey field. Yes, the Navy finally beat the Army in the close game which ended a successful hockey season, that was supported by the coaches, Miss Betty Springer and Mrs. Ritchie Hamill. A round robin tournament was held to select the Army-Navy teams composed of girls with the ability to defend the backfield, dribble well, and to rush the opponent. The seniors' winning the round robin and Navy's beating Army are the laurels that next year's hockey teams will defend.

Our Mighty Women

Much Pro and Con

The membership of Leaders Club is restricted to girls who have actively participated in after-school sports and have done outstanding work in the physical education program. A committee of members and the sponsor, Mrs. Hamill, selected the membership for the year. The largest proportion was taken from the sophomore class . The smaller groups from the junior and senior classes were selected after taking into account that they had had previous years of experience in the club . Mrs. Hamill has set up a new list of regulations by which all girls joining the club must abide. As a result, the group is much improved.

The debate team, after having been defunct for two years, was re-established in 1947 by some of the present members. There are twelve members of the team, five of whom are charter members. Miss Charlotte Ball has served as a sponsor since the club re-organized. The team is a very active group taking part in assemblies, radio programs, inter-club debates, and presenting debates in classes in sc_h ool. The team participates in tournaments and travels to other schools to debate. This year the team has played host to debaters from other schools and has joined the National Forensic League.

Back to Nature

Embryo Scientists

Over fifty high school pupils turned out this year to further their knowledge of hunting and fishing, and the proper equipment for both. The club meetings included interesting speakers and movies, procured by the sponsors, Mr. Bolton, Mr; Yerg, and Mr. Hanna. Sometimes open discussion periods were held, during which helpful hunting and fishing hints were passed along. The club is planning to send a member to the Junior Conservation Camp in Stone Valley, this summer. This representative from the State College club, along with more than one hundred fifty boys from all over Pennsylvania, will receive instruction in the wise use of our wildlife and natural resources.

The Science Club is an entirely new club organized in this high school for the express purpose of preparing students for the annual scholarship exams in scientific fields. In previous years it has been felt that the scientifically minded students in our high school have not had enough preparation to compete in these nationwide exams and it is for this reason the club was formed. The officers this year are Steve Babcock, president; Bob Euwema, vice-president; Jim Moyer, secretary-treasurer. Under the able sponsorship of Mr. Russell Shade!, the club expects to make many interesting studie路s.

Keeping Up with the World The past year has been a big year for the Piper. To get off to a good start, the staff published a special issue on the first day of school in September to welcome new students and teachers and to acquaint them with the school; when A. A. tickets went on sale in October, the staff edited a mimeographed edition to boost sales. In November, the Piper observed its twenty-fifth year of publication. In 1922, a group of junior h igh students worked together with Mrs. Watson on a small mimeographed paper called The Nittany Chips. This was the forerunner to the present Piper, which was first printed in November, 1924. Since that time, the various staffs have tried to carry out the newssheet's purpose of informing the school, supplying a record of major school events, and supporting school activities . In March, the annual Fun Nite was sponsored by the Piper. Entertainment was provided by the faculty and students. Initiation into Quill and Scroll, an international honora ry society for high school journalists, was held in the lib rary on April 19. Harriet Dale, Patsy Jones, Jane Montgomery, and Janie Reber, who were already members, assisted in the initiation of Mary Ann Honess, Joan Higbee, Norma Benson, Mary Lou Blackburn, Dorthene Beck, Ellen Maynard, and George Groninger.

A Girl's Ideal In Boys' Home Ee. class we learned how to bake pies, cookies, rolls, and how to broil, roast, and fry meats of all kinds. Miss Ruth Peters is very understanding of boys' ways and does all she can to help us. Prepare, girls, for your reign over the pots and pans may soon end!

Ti Ilers of the Soi I The Future Farmers of America is a national organization for boys studying vocational agriculture. The aim of the organization is to develop in its members competent agricultural leadership, cooperation , and citizenship. It seems that each year the Little Lions Chapter becomes bigger and better. This year there were fiftythree members in the club. The club's officers were Bob Johnson, president; Don Dreibelbis, vicepresident; Alan Warefield, secretary; and Ellis Warner, treasurer.

Mr. Dale sponsored the club until he resigned in February, when Mr. Barton took over. The main project of the club this year was the farming of the Ulmer farmstead. While caring for the crops, the boys gained experience in planting grain, fertilizing the soil, handling farm equipment, and harvesting crops . Another undertaking of the club was the purchasing of three purebred Shropshire ewes at the sale on the campus in November. They are housed at Teddy Cori's farm.

We Calculate Under the capable leadership of Miss Reigh the members of the Slide Rule Club have succeeded in mastering the art of the fascinating "slip-stick." Throughout the year the members have applied their knowledge to the different methods of performing mathematical operations easily and quickly with an ordinary slide rule. They have also learned to use their slide rules in classes such as physics and chemistry to make the mathematics easier and faster. This year the club consisted of seven members led by Barry Drew, president; Herbert Horner, vice-president; Arthur Anderson, sec retarytreasurer; and Kenneth Stern, student council representative.

Homemakers of tommorrow

On the Treble Cleft Every day more and more emphasis is being placed on the importance of the music program in each school throughout the United States. One of several music organizations here in State College High School is the Girls' Glee Club . The group, composed of 50 voices, has been under the direction of Mr. Floyd Schlegal, a newcomer to the music department of the high school. A variety of music was studied during the year, and programs were presented for students and towns pea pie. Janie Patton and Ann Dreibelbis were the glee club's accompanists this season.

The Future Homemakers of America is the national organization of pupils studying homemaking in the junior and senior high schools of the United States. As an integral part of the program of home economics in the schools of Amer-ica, it offers opportunity for the development of pupil initiative in planning and carrying out activities related to homemaking. _ The F. H. A. brings together groups inter路 ested in working toward better homes and family living and provides opportun ities to share in solving problems important to home life. We have 30 members, who chose these officers for the year : president, Maxine Houtz; vicepresident, Janet Hahn; secretary, _Betty Kidwell; treasurer, Helen Gearhart; reporter, Susie Matis; parliamentarian, Mary Harpster; historian, Betsy Boyer; student council representative, lmmelda Sigel. The advisors are Miss Kennally and Miss Peters.

A Friendly Hand Extended The purpose of the Hi -Y organization is to create, maintain, and extend throughout our school and community a higher standard of Christian character. The Hi-Y is fundamentally a service club. In the past it has contributed financially by pay路 ing several bills too large to be handled by the Student Injury Fund. The club earns its money through the sale of programs and candy at football games . The advertising which appears on the backs of these programs also brings in money . Occasionally, joint meetings and carol sings are held with the Tri-Hi-Y. These companion clubs have attended rallies and organization meetings at nearby towns in the past years. There are Hi-y district and state conventions and a Hi-Y all-state governing body . Our club's officers are : Gordon Hartman, president; Ronald Johnson, vice-president; Bill McClellan, secretary; Lewis Rishel, treasurer.

Low-Down Music The Boys' Glee Club is composed of 26 boys from tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades; the group meets twice each week with its director, Dr. Andrews. One of the highlights of the year for the singers was the teaming up with the boys of the A Cappello Choir to present a group of Christmas carols at the Choir's Christmas concert. Other appearances have been made at special assemblies and on the school's radio program.

Winter!

To many, the most wonderful time in the whole year.

Remember

how, when the first hint of frost nipped at your ears, you pictured yourself poised, ready to zing down the hill on your polished hickorys; or zipping lightly over the glassy surface of the Duck Pond!

We were afraid for a while that Old Jack Frost

wouldn't come this year, for those murky, rainy days were terribly discouraging. But he has never failed us . Yes, the weather was unpleasant; still, on Friday nights, the gym was packed by basketball and wrestling fans roaring to the tops of their lungs .

Some time

ago, we were asked to refrain from throwing candy papers onto the gym floor . You know, the administration has a point there.

It wouldn't be so funny if one

of our stars suddenly found himself skidding down the floor, using a "Mars" or "Skybar" wrapper as a sled.

The Voice of the School As stated in its constitution the purpose of the Junior High Student Council is to "serve as a medium between faculty and student body, and to assist other organizations, such as Junior Red Cross, to encourage good social relationships among the students, and to develop a well-bal anced program of student activities." This year's officers are George Smith, president; Ann Rutherford, vice-president; Ann Farrell, secretary; and David Lee, treasurer. The officers and advisors of Student Coun-

cil feel that this has been a good year, and they anticipate even better student government in the years to come. Among the policies adopted by the council is that of answering "Beef Box" suggestions; the answers are included in Council minutes. The Student Council considers all suggestions and endeavors to enforce those most worthwhile. In this way, the Council hopes to serve the students more effectively.

Up In The World

One of the main events of the year for our class was the election in which Ed Miller became class president; Gertrude Mohnkern, vice-president; Barbara Leetch, secretary; and Molly Ker-steter, treasurer. Numerous sophomore boys worked hard on the school's football, soccer, basketball, and First Row:

wrestling teams. In the field of music, the class of '52 has been well represented, for many sophomores are members of the band and A Cappello Choir . .A.pril 28 is a date which most of us wlll never forget, for that was the night of the Soph Hop, which was a huge success.

Our Successors The class of '51 . has lived up to its name of "jolly juniors." Co-captain of the football team was Andy Lentvorsky; many juniors were among those who received letters. Soccer awards went to Barry, Jack, Scott, Jim, and Lewis. We also cheered

our matmen, Andy, Scott, Stan, Bill, and Jerry, on to many victories. The girls proved their athletic abilities by representing us on the hockey, bowling, and basketball teams. The junior plays were something to be proud of, and we all felt that the work spent in their preparation was well worth the fun.

Coach Yerg found himself in the process of rebuilding this year. With just a few veterans, including a state runner up, Jack Straub, most of the starting positions were filled by sophomores. The first three meets found State High on the tail end of the scoring column, although at Lewistown , it was by a lone point. Against Bellefonte, State's bright spot came at 154 pounds as Andy Lentvorsky pinned Kelly of the Raiders in its second period . Mighty Clearfield was surprised but held on and took a 23 -17 win .

With four seniors and a junior forming the starting lineup Coach Weir had little luck in pulling State High out of the second division of 1he Central States League. During the first half they dropped only Renovo at home which gave them a 1-4 record and reserved a cellar spot . State

played spotty ball during the first cycle with several potential high scorers not clicking together. Jersey Shore proved to be the class of the league although State gave them a score at the start of the second cycle . Most of the league seemed to be over the Little Lions' heads but hopes for a top spot ran high.

Alley Cats Girls' Bowling, made up of girls from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes, is held at the Dux Club. Permission slips for setting up pins must be obtained from parents before the teams, having about seven persons, play against each other. Then eighteen girls with the highest average bowling scores are chosen, to make up three teams to play opposite each other. The winning team plays against Beflefonte High School's girl bowlers; this is the main event of the season. The high-scoring team wins a trophy, and the girls of that team have their names engraved on the cup. These tournaments are made possible each year by the instruction and supervision of Miss Springer.

Hot Shots Probably the most outstanding and popular sport in which the girls participate is basketball. Approximately ninety-five senior high girls took part this year. To start the season, teams, which are made up from homerooms, played against one another to determine the champion of senior high. The girls of room 119 were the champs this year . After completion of the homeroom tournament, the coaches selected twelve girls from each class to play "class basketball." At the close of the regular season, Honorary Varsity was elected by the senior high girls who had participated in basketball. The three sophomores, six juniors, and nine seniors of Honorary Varsity played against teams from other schools in games away and at home.

Librarian's Assistants Each year, a group of senior highers called Librarian's Assistants give valuable aid to Miss Mahey . They help by replacing books on the shelves, running errands, decorating the library, and helping people to whom the library is un familiar. A boy or girl must devote two periods a week to this work and receives the satisfaction of having helped our school.

Dramatics Club The Dramatics Club this year was under the guidance of Mr. Glenn Shaffer. The staging, d irecting, and producing of plays were studied as part of the club's activities. After reading and discussing several plays, the members chose one which they produced ; this was the biggest undertak ing of the club for the year. To help its members gain a better knowledge of dramatics is the useful purpose of this club.

Dancing Club

The Projectors' Club is composed of boys interested in the showing of moving pictures and the operat ing of all visual aid equipment. Du ring club periods, study halls, and noon hours, these boys may show pictures for school use . Theatrical projection and the mechanics of the projector are studied during club periods. Like all progressive organizations, the projectors' club has, this year, acqu ired some new equipment. Mr. Robert Weir sponsors th is club, whose officers are Larry Zong , president; LaVern Johnson, vice-president; Walter Markle, secretarytreasurer; Donald Crust, Student Council repre sentative.

This year the Dancing Club planned to accomplish more than it had in previous years . Our instructor, Dick Werts, who, incidentally, played first base for Penn State, taught steps at every meeting . The officers elected were : Sandra Knepp, president; Lenore Babione, secretary; and Shirley Clouser, Student Council representative. Some of the steps we've learned are the magic step, the box step, and right and left turns. Our battle cry, 11 0ne -two-step -together! 11 , is the formula for the magic step. The members of the club feel it is a good one to join, for dancing is really a social necessity.

The Right Hand of Fellowship The Youth Council of Churches is the group of high school students which coordinates the re .. ligious activities for the youth of the communi1y. The council's main functions are lo plan monthly union youth services and to plan the series of annual school services in observance of Lent. The members of the council are chosen from the youth groups of each of the Protestant churches of State College and from the ÂŁervice clubs of the high schol. Rev. A. S. Asendorf and Rev. James Reed, with the officers of the council, direct the year's activities. The officers of the group are Jerry Rishel, president; Jim Moyer, vice-president; Harriet Dale, secretary; and Phyllis Montague, treasurer.

For the eighth year our school has been privileged to have a Religious Education course. The classes met once a week for sixteen weeks in the Presbyterian Church . The seniors met with Mrs. Frank Montgomery, Miss Marjorie Allen, and Reverend Edwerth Korte to study "The Christian Way of Life." The "Bible As Living Literature" was studied by the juniors who were under the leadership of Reverend R. H. Eads, Reverend A. S. Asendorf, and Reverend James Reed. For the sophomores the subject was "Discovering Jesus" taught by Mrs. John Harkins, Mrs. Paul Margolf, Mrs. D. C. Jones, Mrs . Andrew Newcomer, Jr . and Mr. Ted Horner.

Eighteen students were enrolled in this year's weekly Catholic religious education classes. This sixteen-week course, as in previous years, was held in the main body of Our Lady of Victory Church across the street from the high school. Under the supervision of Reverend Owen Gallagher, the Catholic students learned the names of the books of the old testament of the Bible and read and studied the old testament. Also these senior high school students learned a number of facts concerning the principles and policies of the Roman Catholic Church.

The Photography Club is again under the able supervision of Jack Kirkpatrick. The purpose of this organizat ion is to teach its members the fundamentals of photography. Included principles are how to take good pictures, the knowledge of the different types of equipment which are available, fundamental knowledge of developing film and processing prints, and appreciation of good pictures. Some of the club periods are spent indoors in discussion and demonstration of photography principles, while other times the members go outdoors and take their own pictures of varied subjects. This year's officers are Dave Bauchspies, president; Alan Wyand, vice-president; Marcile Fisher, secretarytreasurer; and Dave Dreibelbis, Student Council representative .

The Junior Red Cross Council of our high school is composed of at least two volunteers from each senior high home room. The council meets twice a month to discuss and work on its projects. Some of the projects which the Junior Red Cross sponsors are the annual membership drive from November l to 15; packing gift boxes for overseas; making toys for children's hospitals. The object of the membership drive is to try to have every member of the high school join the Junior Red Cross and feel his share in giving. The toys, favors, and Christmas cards are made by various groups, such as the home economics classes, art groups, and members of the council. The council works together through its motto: "Onward Through Serv ice."

Mighty Fine Musicn The seventh season of the State College High School A Cappello Choir has very successfully drawn to a close, under the excellent direction of Dr. Frances Andrews. Perhaps this was the most flourishing of all years. The program of appearances included the Aaronsburg Story; assemblies; the annual concert of Christmas music with Leroy Hinkle as guest baritone soloist, accompanied by ex-choir member, Gay Brunner; carolling for the dedication of Christmas street lights; the Boys' Choir performing for the Kiwanis Club; a trip to Rockview Penitentiary; the final concert in May; and the participation in Lenten, Baccalaureate, and commencement services . This season saw the introduction of something new-the extension of student government to include eight section leaders. The elected section leaders helped in the learning of parts and similar duties . Each year the choir has added to its vast repertoire, until now it becomes quite a task trying to eliminate some of the suggested old numbers for each concert program . To help solve this problem, the third year members voted for their favorite ones. Tryouts were held for those wishing to attend District Chorus Festival in Bellefonte. Several members represented us, and one of these was chosen for state chorus. Doctor Frances Andrews has had much experience in the field of music. Her college education was obtained at Oberlin Conservatory

where she majored in music, violin, and English. , At Marywood College, Scranton, Pennsylvania, she received the Mus. B. degree, directed the college symphony orchestra, and was editor of the yearbook. From 1932-1936 in Fleetville, Pennsylvania, she held the position of supervisor and teacher of vocal and instrumental music. A community orchestra in the Abington Independent Schools, Waverly, Pennsylvania, was one of the music projects she helped to promote there. Dr. Andrews also directed county music festivals. During this time she attended summer school in New York University. In 1942 she received her Master's degree from the Pennsylvania State College. The following year she began teaching in the State College High School where her present rank is head of the music department, and also at the College, where she is now assistant professor of music education. Dr . Andrews received her Ed. D. from Penn State in 1948.

This year, the group is composed of eleven singers and two accompanists.

JAZZ BAND First Row-Beeghley, Fisher, Valmont, Henninger, Rowland Second Row-Korman, Farrell, D. Fishburn Third Row-Giesdahl, Fromm, Wyand, Lutz, Staub Fourth Row-Mr. Hege, Zerban, R. Fishburn

Five saxophones, three trombones, three trumpets, drums, base fiddle, and piano are the instruments played by the members of Modernaires, the school's "Jazz Band". This year's much-improved dance band was an outstanding part of the extra-curricular activities. At their weekly practices, the members worked hard and learned their music well, so 1hat they made a good showing in public. Their enjoyable music was greatly appreciated at the football and basketball mixers and at canteen throughout the year.

The new members fill the vacancies left by the previous spring's g,'.lduates, and the rivalry runs high. The f olka Dots, so named because they wear polka-de,tted bow-ties when performing, practice weekly under Dr . Andrews' baton. Some of the group's outstanding performances have been before tne town's service clubs.

Bach, Beethoven, and Fiddle- Faddle The High School Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. H. C. Smith, is larger this year than ever before.

There's a gentleness in the air

Yes, Dame Spring has come home

again and another batter of seniors is on the way out. Why a "batter?" a class of young people is like a cake.

Because

The serious, studious ones are the flour,

which gives stability; the light-hearted, the "silly" ones are the baking powder, which makes the cake rise and gives the necessary lightness; those easy-going persons are the milk, the smoothing agent .

Even the loafers, the hangers-on,

have a place; they are the little air-holes, which add nothing to the taste, but do help the appearance.

The finished product?

Why that's the world we live in,

the good Earth.

Around They Go! With winning teams at a minimum at State High the track team takes the spot light with a three year winning streak. Last year the going was a little rough as there was only a sprinkling of veterans in both the field and running events. Coach Bolton found a lack of depth a severe problem. The use of college facilities provided the opportunity for some very good performances from some of the members' of the team. Here's hoping the longest present winning streak of the school continues.

The Tee-off

Safe on First Coach Hanna has three returning veterans in the infield but one can only hope about the outfield and pitching positions . We have the distinction of being the only team to beat Bellefonte consistently in the last few years. Some very good baseball should be played by this year's starless nine. Baseball, a fairly new sport at State High, has come a long way in the last few years, and the boys on the team can better the sport and the school they represent. Basebal I, our national pastime, is growing in our nation as it is growing in our school.

Last year, our golf team, under Mr. Phillip Armstrong, sustained a very disappointing loss to Wil-路 liamsport. It is the most remembered event of the season because this loss snapped a five year winning streak. 路 Several of last year's top golfers were not among the returnees, but the nucleus of a potential winning team remained. A winning golf team has been taken for granted at State High, but regardless of any win or loss record, golf is a hard game to master, and the team and its coach deserve a great deal of credit. 58

If I Were a Teacher .. The Future Teachers of America Club is a newly formed organization in State High. lt5 members are girls who are considering following teaching as a profession. With Mr. Kemmerer as guide and advisor, the club has sponsored several mixers to raise money for the national F. T. A. fee. To help the girls gain a better idea of what teaching involves, arrangements were made for them to observe classes in the elementary schools . Since it is entirely new to our community, the F. T. A. has been publicized very little . We are sure, however, th.at, in the future this club will become more popular and will help others to be successful teachers .

Mr. Jack Hartman, president of the Hartman Construction Company, announced yesterday that some of his workmen had discovered an old cedar chest while excavating a southern Pacific island. Last week, the chest was shipped to Mr. Hartman, who with Ginny Hess, his secretary, examined it. Miss Hess and Mr. Hartman declared that they believe the chest to be the one known by students of the local high school as the "Treasure Chest"; it was continually displayed in the trophy case of the school until the building was destroyed 17 years ago. Mr. Hartman also feels that the relic was beached on this island during the flood which leveled the school building . Mr. Hartman and Miss Hess spent several hours examonong and reminiscing over the contents, souvenirs and mementos of each gradu-

ating class. They then sent the chest to United States President George E. Greninger, who called in Secretary of Treasury Steve Babbock, also a local graduate. These two officials conformed the authenticity of the antque. President Groininger directed that the cedar chest be placed in the Smithsonian Institution, where the public may now view it.

Dear Diary, "Swami Ali Kno i Tel-Step in" That's what was printed on the swinging sign. To satisfy my curiosity, I did as requested and immediately found myself in the seer's consultation chamber. The pudgy little man greeted me graciously, bade me be seated, and inquired how he could serve me. Now it happened that just the day before-that was TuesdayI had run into one of the fellows who graduated from high school in my class, and we'd spent an hour or more recalling old classmates and our school life. So I replied to the Swami, "Show me, if you can, what t he fellows and girls who graduated from Stale College High School in the class of 1950 will be doing in the year 1965." "I will," the seer declared. He stared penetratingly into the heart of his indispensable crystal ball, and within several seconds exclaimed, "I see it now!" Without removing his gaze from the ball, he continued, "I see, through the mystic vapor, a page from a metro politan newspaper! It is the "Personals" page. Listen!

As the last strains of our "Alma Mater" die away and mingle with the evening mists, we, the class of one thousand nine hundred fifty, say to each of our many friends among the faculty and student body, "May the Earth in its turning bring you success in all you attempt; remember, however, that one must strive in order to achieve, achieve in order to rise, rise to obtain success.

A well-known

philosopher has said, 'The basic ingredient of happiness is work.' Go on working, then, and win your happiness.

For, if you are truly happy, you will have climbed

the mountain to the peak of success."

Dear to our hearts our Alma Mater, Noble and fair to view.

No other school will stand above you, State College High, so true,

Hail!

All IIail, to old State High; Hal 1, Maroon and Gray!

To our Alma Mater fair, We pledge all our lives for aye!

As the final pages of the 1950 Maroon and Gray are turned, we, the staff, realize that our task is finished, and another yearbook is ready to take its place in the history of State College High School.

But before the cover is closed, we wish to thank the many

people who have given their advice, help, and time to make our yearbook a success.

Miss Geuther, our advisor, was always

mindful of each new crisis and each. deadline that was met . On many hot summer evenings, she devoted time to meeting with the staff in enthusiastic early planning.

Seeking more artistic

layouts, we sought the advice of the art department.

Interested

and experienced help was given by Mr. Mattil on problem layouts and publishing procedures.
