Apparatus the teachers and their students. Self-govern ment is very valuable in teaching us to overcome some of the problems of democracy .
Our school board, superintendent, princi pals, teachers, and student councils are used as apparatus in producing worthy high school graduates . The secretaries, custodians, bus driv ers, and the cafeteria staff are additional apparatus which play an active part in guiding us through school. When the apparatus is properly used and functions well, the e x periment will be successful. No friction should occur between the apparatus and the materials o r the product will be affected . Both Junior and Senior High Student Coun cil have a large voice in the policies that run our school. Working with the administration helps to iron out some of the difficulties that arise between
Our teachers not only instruct us in regula r school subjects, but willingly give extra time to sponsor and advise our clubs, sports, and other organizations which play such an important role in our education . Such action cannot help but bring better understanding and co -operation between the admin istration and the students wh ich will in turn serve to produce students that are better prepared to meet the problems they will face after graduation .

STUDENT COUNCIL The State College High School Student Council acts as a "go-between" for students and faculty. The members are elected from home rooms and clubs each year and hold regular meetings about twice a month. The Council sponsors mixers and parties during the year as well as the annual Hay-Loft Hop in the spring . They take charge of selling A. A. tickets and organize and control all the school elections. Three members, Warren Pyle, Bill Tucker, and Margaret Lewis, represented State High at
the State Student Council Convention in West Reading in October, and Bill was a representative to the National Convention in Denver last summer. This year's officers are Warren Pyle, president; Lewis Rishel, vice-president; Janie Patton, secretary; and Dick Morgan, treasurer. The Junior High Student Council has many of the same duties as the Senior High Council and is led by Bill Hutchison, president; Joe Smith, vicepresident; Betsy Baker, secretary; and Richard Ferguson, treasurer.

Procedure When the apparatus and materials have been collected and are ready for the experiment, combine the materials slowly, making certain the reaction is completed. This reaction will involve both a physical and mental change, and, unless both changes take place, the product will not be correctly prepared. The conclusions can then be drawn from the entire experiment. Students must be combined thoroughly with studies and activities of all kinds. The adminis-
tration must supervise and direct this program, for only under their guidance will the students be completely trained. Physically and mentally the students must be strong in order to properly carry out their obligations in their communities. If they are adequately prepared and have acquired all the knowledge and fundamentals of citizenship our school offers, they are ready for graduation . The conclusions and results of this experiment will be noticeable in the pages _o f our annual.

GRADE 7 CLASS HISTORY "-If you had asked any seventh grader last fall what he thought of the high school, he would probably have said it was a grand place but so different from grade school. The grade school was small and easy to get around, but the high school is an immense building with many halls and stairways. We couldn't tell when we were on the first or second floor. The teachers were all new which made matters worse. Also the changing of classes was confusing. We constantly had to ask people where this or that room was.
After a while we got used to it. We soon found where the one-way halls were and how to get around. We finally learned what each teachE expected of us. One thing we all like about State High is that it offers many opportunities to take part in sports, plays, clubs, assemblies, and other activities. The seventh graders wish to thank the teachers and upper classmen for the help they have given us in becoming a part of State High.-"

THE PERCENT AGE OF ERROR (Equipment and personnel are never perfect. In any experiment allowances must be made for these variables. Therefore, on this page there is a slight discrepancy due to the miscalculations of the staff. In the sciences this is called "percentage of error", and is glibly passed off with a wave of the hand. Many experimenters seem to take pride in the huge percent-
age of error they accrue. This book has many attributes; only a few will bother you . The picture backgrounds, for instance, are a sterling example of skill and careful planning. It is best to be frank about the "percentage of error" and we hope you will laugh with us at our flubbs.)

CHRISTMAS DANCES Good music, fancifully decorated Christmas trees, long dresses, punch and cookies are some of the many memor.ies that high school students will recall about the holiday dances held during the Christmas season. Even though the expenses hit the boys' pockets pretty hard, everyone has a good time. The dances, given by senior high girls, are
held in well decorated fraternity houses and echo music of some of the best dance bands in the country. Several are held each season, and hard work and planning go into each dance. When they are over and school opens again for the year, many are reluctant to go back, but in going back find a chance to rest .up from the strenuous holidays.

Future Business Leaders
Christian Youth Council
The Future Business Leaders of America Club was organized mainly for the purpose of further acquainting the members, who plan to go on with a business career, with the qualities of good leadership in the business world. The club consists of two committees; the Activities Committee and the Constitution Committee. The Activities Committee plans the club's program for the week, while the Constitution Committee makes the rules and sees that these rules are carried out. Nancy Marshall is chairman of the Activities Committee and Nancy Spotts is chairman of the Constitution Committee. The club is made up of pupils from senior high and is sponsored by Mrs. Whitaker. Joyce Barto is president; Betty Wilson, vice -president; Emma Garbrick, secretary; Betty Simco, -treasurer; and Shirley Rudy, Student Council representative.
To encourage and regulate youth religious affairs in the community, the Christian Youth Council, under the leadership of the Reverend James Reed, meets monthly to plan for youth conferences, union youth services, and particition in the state conferences. Each year the Council sponsors the series of school services in the Episc~pal Church during the Lenten season.
Library Assistants' Club
Junior Red Cross Council
Keeping the research department of the high school in good order is the duty of the Library Assistants' Club. To qualify for membership, a pupil must have an average grade of "C" or better and be able to devote at least two periods a week for work. Since the club does not meet during regular club periods, membership is open to junior and senior high students. The boys and girls do such jobs as checking and shelving books, running errands, preparing new books for use, and guiding new people around the library. The more experienced ones take care of the circulation record and send out notices for overdue books. During the summer, some members work to prepare the library for use the following year. They receive regular wages for their work. Throughout the year the club holds pot-luck suppers, square dances, and parties for its members.
The Junior Red Cross Council is a service organization that functions as well in peace as in war. The veterans' hospitals, orphanages, and old folks' homes all need and appreciate services from the Council. The State High group tries to meet these needs at least once each year. The boys and girls on the Council go to the old folks' home in Bellefonte to entertain with dancing, singing, and refreshments at Christmas time. Two of the Council's projects this year were boxes for overseas and an afghan made by the girls.
Bake sale and basketball mixer profits are used to supplement the financial assistance of the State Coll~ge Council of Churches in planning banquets for the local youth conference and sending delegates to state conventions . Officers of the Christian Youth Council are Phyllis Montague, president; David Van Ormer, vice-president; Janice Breon, secretary; and Dave 路 Jones, treasurer.
Each year the members of the Council are in charge of the Red Cross Drive in the high school, collecting money from the students in order to extend the work of the Junior Red Cross. The Council is made up of representatives from the senior high home rooms. Mrs. Dale is the sponsor of the Council.

Photography Club Under the supervision of Jack Kirkpatrick, the Photography Club again has had a very successful year. The purpose of the club is to teach its members the fundamentals of photography such as the techniques needed in developing, printing, and enlarging films as well as the ability necessary in taking good pictures. During the year, Mr. Kirkpatrick brings photo equipment to the club meetings where members can actually get the practice of using them. Also, the club takes many "picture taking" excursions and later, the prints are rated by the club. This year's officers are Charles Wright, president; Lynn Beck, vice-president; Peggy Morris, secretary-treasurer; and Sue Shaffer, Student Counci I representative. Wright, Mr. Kirkpatrick, Morris, Fisher, Mingle, Beck, Williams, Shaffer, White.
Radio Club The Radio Club, under the direction of Mr. Henly, is becoming one of the most interesting and important clubs in State High. The experience which one receives here is worthwhile especially when one's radio needs repair. The interests of the club members lie in repairing and building radios and sending and receiving messages. Members have the opportunity to select and study any field pertaining to radio. The officers of the Radio Club are Bill Tucker, president; Clifford Warner, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer; and Ken Pahel, Student Counci I representative. Row 1-Trostle, Tucker. Row 2-Warner, Pahel, Horner, Drew, Vonada, Woodbury, Witmer, Woodberry .
Piper Cubs Piper Cubs is a comparatively new club, this being its second year. Its main purpose is to teach its members to write better news; however, the club discusses other things. "The Cubs" learn the importance of making a newspaper page pleasing to the eye and placing important articles so that the person reading the paper will see those articles first . As a guide, the club members use a workbook which combines instruction and exercises in newswriting. Since the membership is small, each person gets more individual attention from the club sponsor, Miss Geuther.

Debate Club
Sketching Club
The use of false statistics, "unauthorative" authorities, and disdainful sneers are all part of a debater's dent's. Needless to say, State High's debaters do! Miss Ball, the long suffering sponsor, has used much of her endless patience to explain these "wrongs", and the Debate Club has remedied most of them. The activities of Debate Club are diversified. Naturally, research, practice, and actual debate upon the "question of the year", chosen by the National Forensic Association, occupy most of the members' time. This year, the question is, Resolved: that the American people should reject the welfare state. Interscholastic debates are held on this topic with Lock Haven and Carlisle High Schools. Round table discussions and radio programs are also presented. The officers are Rita Fromm, president; John Farrell, vice-president; Jody Montgomery, secretary-treasurer; and Ben Sinclair, Student Council representative.
The Sketching Club is composed of ten artistically minded sophomore girls . During club periods they concentrate on sketching and painting portraits of club members and make Christmas and Easter cards from various types of linoleum block prints.
Rice,
Oil painting, something new to most of the girls, is often tried with very successful results. Outdoor painting excursions are taken in warm weather, and models are often brought in from study halls to pose for the girls. Since one of the main purposes of this club is to improve art ability and to develop a better and more sensible view of the subject, they hope many more people will join next year. Miss Jacobson is the sponsor of the club and Alice Van Ormer is president; Ann Porter, vicepresident; Ellyn Doty, secretary; and Carol Denniston, treasurer.

Projectors' Club
Future Teachers of America
The Projectors' Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Weir, was first organized in 1943. Each year the club has acquired new equipment and is today one of the most important clubs in the high school, for it is in charge of visual aids. All of the movies shown in the schools are shown by members of the Projectors' Club. During club periods and study halls the members meet to learn the operation of the movie and slide projectors. The club has its own room where all of the equipment is kept, and where the members practice using the projectors. After the members have learned how to operate the projectors efficiently, Mr. Weir assigns those who have free periods to show movies to classes. During the year every boy gets to show movies and becomes experienced in operating the projectors. The club officers are Walter Markle, president; Arthur Glenn, vice-president; Bob Tressler, secretary-treasurer; and Charles Lutz, Student Council representative.
Louella Valmont, Gail Jurey, Joan Flebotte, and Joan Else are the members of this year's F. T. A. Club.

Mr . Kemmerer, their sponsor, makes arrangements for the girls to observe classes in the elementary school during the year. This plan is to help the Club members obtain a better understanding of what actual teaching involves. The club takes several trips to other schools to meet with other members of the F. T. A., and several mixers are sponsored by the group to raise money for the national F. T. A. fee . Pamphlets and other reading materials are read during club meetings . It is hoped that this club will continue to grow during the coming years as it strives to give future teachers a good background for their chosen occupation.

A mixer may be sponsored by any school organization.
Hall Patrol A few years ago when Student Council approved the list of traffic regulations for the ha lls, it was necessary to set up an organization to enforce these rules . To fill this need a Safety Committee was appointed. The Safety Committee, with Lewis Rishel as over-all chairman, is divided into two major subcommittees: one, the between-classes hall patrol headed by Lewis Rishel; and two, the noon time patrol headed by Pete Reist. The members of the hall patrol are allowed to leave classes three minutes befo re the end of the period in order to aet to their posts by the time the bell rings. Likewise they have three minutes to get their books and report to their next class.

Ten Tones
Girls' Glee Club
The title "Ten Tones" perhaps does not seem appropriate this year as the group is made up of eleven girls instead of ten. The "Ten Tones" rehearse once a week on school time, on Thursdays, and once outside of school on Tuesday evening. The learning of music has always been the job of the member herself, and rehearsal time can then be devoted to blending, dynamics, and general performance techniques. Until this year, the Ten Tones have never worn any particular style of clothing or robe, but instead wore that which seemed appropriate for the occasion. However, this year the girls decided to buy sweaters and skirts alike, and finally purcha;ed light gray, short-sleeved sweaters and maroon material for skirts . Each member is making her own skirt.
This year's Girls' Glee Club, consisting of rnventy members, has greatly improved under the leadership of Mr. Schlegal. A new system of government was organized this year similar to the other school musical groups. A system of noon rehearsals was arranged by the section leaders, and is helping the club make a good showing in several assemblies throughout the year . Officers of the organization are Jane Alexander, president; Dorothy Spotts, vice-president; and Shirley Clouser, treasurer. Section leaders are Nancy Rhodes, first soprano; Carol Young, second soprano; and Peggy Meyers, alto, while the librarians are Lois Albright, Pat Ludington, and Peggy Morris. Barbara Butler and Janie Patton accompany for the group.

Polka Dots
Boys' Glee Club
Organized in early 1944 by Dr. Frances Andrews, a male octet made its first appearance at the A Cappello Choir concert in March of that year. Since the octet was singing at various out-of-school engagements, it was found desirable to take on a new name. Due to the octet's habit of wearing polka dot bow ties, the boys christened themselves "Polka Dots". Until this year "Polka Dots" have been singing straight male glee club numbers . Not satisfied with that, they have shifted to barbershop harmony. 路 They split into two quartets for the purpose of learning music more quickly, and more important, developing an ear for the peculiar harmony of barbershop music. Singing first tenor are Chuck Lutz and Roger Staub; lead is warbled by Andy Zerban and Lewis Rishel; Barry Drew and Ned DeCamp hold things together at baritone; and the mighty bassos, Warren Pyle and Nick Baldwin rumble on.
One of the several choral groups in this musically interested high school is the up-andcoming Boys' Glee Club. This year, a system of government new in our school has been set up by the Glee Club's very capable director, Miss Joan O'Hara. This system of self-government, called Student Government, was imported from Oil City High School where it has been working successfully for years. The recruits for the Glee Club come from senior high school alone, the only requirement being that the individual be a male of the species. Since bsing formed solely for the purpose of singing for radio programs the Glee Club has extended its activities to singing for Lenten services and school assemblies . The controlling powers this year are Wilbur Dodd, president; and Ronald Neidigh, vice-president. The section leaders are Fred Spannuth, first tenor; Jack Elder, second tenor; Jerry Miller, baritone; and Ken McCulloch, bass.

A Cappella Choir The mere mention of the words "A Cappello Choir" is coming to mean something very important around State High. This organization, under the leadership of Dr. Frances Andrews, is in its eighth year of existence and is getting constantly more professional with every concert. The Choir consists of students from senior high. Every year tryouts are held, and many new people came into the organization . This marks the second year since the new system of student government began in Choir. This system begins with the election of section leaders by Choir members . Section leaders may call weekly rehearsals of their section, in which stress is put on the learning of music for the betterment of the entire Choir. This new system helps the individual members and saves time during regular Choir rehearsals. During school hours the Choir rehearses three times a week, and near the Christmas and Spring Concerts, evening rehearsals are held. The Choir sings at the Thanksgiving Service, several of the Lenten Services, and Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises, besides their regular concerts.

Band They're gone now. Never to return againthe "51" band members. They were a gay bunch while they lasted. The band room walls would resound with their merry laughter at times. And again these same walls would shrink back at some of the <E1wful shrieking and faunking that our noble classmates produced. But all this is gone now. They're all gone now. Out into the cold, cold world. They remember in that soft place in their heart reserved for childhood's tender memories, those litle trips to Philipsburg and Bellefonte on school time; and concerts on the stage with a full auditorium of interested and non-interested parents. And then again they recall rehearsals on Memorial Field. In the beginning, for mere football halftime routines; then for a little production in June called affectionately our swan song! And now there is nothing. Nothing but an atmosphere, which will never or can never be scrubbed off or painted over . Their names and instruments, escapades and misadventures, will never be forgotten. So it is with every graduating class. They come, then leave after but a short duration. Still, they are never really gone or completely forgotten. Years hence, some fabulous musician will return and declare emphatically, "THIS is where Mr. Hege forced me to play those silly exercises," or, "Remember the night the ninety of us buried those four mangled trombones." But the band will be here next year . Other prodigies just as good (never better!) will be discovered and be used. And to the parents, friends and administrators who helped us to bury this, our honored dead, the deceased wish to give heartfelt thanks.

Orchestra
District Chorus
The High School Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. H. C. Smith consists of thirty-one members. The first few months of every school year are devoted almost entirely to the learning of district orchestra music, to prepare students to attend the district orchestra festival which was held in Middleburg, April 12, 13, and 14 this year. In January the orchestra gave its first concert in the high school auditorium, at wh ich time they played some of the district orchestra music as well as several string ensembles.
The District Chorus members are known around town and around State High by a new name this year, which the group itself chose, that of "The Singers". District Chorus was held in Lewistown, Pa., on December 7, 8, and 9. The chorus sang quite a variety of pieces including some negro spirituals, Christmas music, folk songs and humorous selections. Aside from singing at Lewistown and at the A Cappello concerts, the State High group performs at various meetings a round town, such as some of the Lenten Services and at meetings of women's organizations.

Jazz Band . . .'twelve people ... What can twelve people do with a little practice and some music? The whole school can tell you the excellent results. Smooth and danceable music is heard at many and varied occasions in school. Canteen and mixers are livened up many times by the presence of Jazz Band . Student leadership was again provided, as Andy led the band through a very successful year. Wednesday night has become sacred to these members. Every week they .gather for a two hour practice. All other meetings in the school then listen, willingly or not, to strains of many and varied pop tunes. Such is life in Jaz:p;, Band.
The Pennsylvania Music Educators' Association, a statewide organization of public school music teachers, has for a number of years been trying to further interest in music in our state. One of the many ways in which they carry out this purpose is to hold music festivals for high school students in bands, orchestras and choirs. Each applicant is selected on a basis of school representation, years studied on the instrument, and an approval by his own instructor. The district band festival this year was held at Bellefonte, January 26, 27, and 28, under the direction of Paul Yoder. Thirteen students from State High attended this event.

Girls' Basketball
G.A.C.
This year the system for selecting the girls' basketball teams has been revolutionized . Homeroom teams have been abolished, and instead, teams are chosen in the phys. ed. classes. These teams compete against one another in class, and form a winner's and a loser's league. The outstanding team from each league participates in after-school basketball and plays a round-robin tournament to determine the championship. Independent of the phys . ed. tournament is the customary class team. Every girl in senior high is eligible to join . By process of elimination, Mrs. Hamill and Miss Springer cut each class team down to approximately twelve girls. Competition is keen, and this championship also is determined by the round-robin. The selection of Honorary Varsity and Play-day highlights the close of the season.
The Girls' Athletic Club Board of Control is the governing body of the girls' sports program of the school. The board is composed of seventeen members . These girls set up sports' schedules, present awards, regulate games, and promote good sportsmanship in girls' athletics. In addition to sponsoring mixers after athletic events, G . A. C. holds an annual play day for the girls of several surrounding schools. At this play day the girls participate in a basketball tournament during the morning, have lunch, and enjoy some kind of entertainment afterwards. At the end of the school year, G. A. C. sponsors an annual Girls' Sports Banquet at which all girls' sports awards are presented . This year the officers of G. A. C. are Teresa Sheehe, president; Pat Gilbert, vice-president; Barbara Leetch, secretary; Elizabeth Anderson, treasurer; Pat Gilbert, Student Council representative; and Miss Springer, faculty advisor.

Hocky This year the girls started hockey with as much enthusiasm as ever. There was a large turnout for the class teams and a round-robin tournament was played. The tournament for the picked class teams was played next. The Juniors won this tournament, winning one game and tying one. The honorary Army and Navy teams were chosen next. These players are picked for their spirit and ability shown during the class games. These are lively games which every player looks forward to. Such expressions as "Watch out for Farrell," and "Hey Bickle, Bolton could use you," still ring in our ears. Only two games were very close. The Army team made up of Bickle, Campbell, Cook, Dusinberre, Einstein, P. Farrell, Foster, Gearhart, Leetch, Powell , Rose, and Sullivan won one game and tied the other one. The Navy team consisted of Anderson, Artz, Bunnell, Dreibelbis, A. Farrell, Forbes, Gilbert, Koch, Musser, Myers, Seckinger, and Spannuth.
Bowling Bowling began this year the first week after Thanksgiving vacation. The girls bowl every Wednesday afternoon at the Dux Club, forming bowling teams that usually consist of five, six, or seven players. These teams then compete in a double round-robin tournament. The winning team members of this tournament have their names inscribed on a bowling pin which is placed in the school trophy case. Each week the highest individual and team scores are posted on the bulletin board of the girls' locker room. A record of all scores is kept by Miss Springer, and after the tournament, the eighteen girls with the highest averages make up three all-star teams. These teams are coached by the sponsors of bowling, Miss Springer, Miss McVicker, and Mrs . McDowell. Each team bowls two games and the team with the highest total wins this tournament. Bowling is becoming more and more popular each year, brings out from seventy-five to one-hundred gir ls.

Varsity Football State High's gr idders went through a very rough 1950 season . When it was over, their record read nine losses without a single win . In the opening game against Moshannon Joint High School, the Boltonmen came out on the short end of a 19-18 score. Afte r Moshannon had built up a 13 point lead, Sonny Pea rce ran 94 yards for a touchdown . The score read 19-12 when, with seconds remaining, Larson threw a pass to Eddie Miller, who went the distance to score. A fumble in the backfield prevented the Little Lions from tying the count with the e xtra point. The next game was played against Lock Haven before the largest crowd of the season on Memorial Field. Lock Haven grabbed the lead at the start of the game and was never in dange r throughout the contest. The boys of the Maroon and Gray fought gamely, but Lock Haven just had too much power and class for the Little Lions. The final score. read 46-0 . For their first away encounter the team went to Hollidaysburg . The winless Little Lions put up a 9ame fight and held mighty Hollidaysburg to a 13-0 score in the first half. In . the second half Hollidaysburg showed its strength by scoring twice in both the third and fourth periods . The most the Boltonmen could do was to push over one touchdown. The final score added up to 41 -6. The fourth game of the season was played at Clearfield . State played a good defensive 9ame, but just couldn't get their offense rolling. The score at the half was 7-0 in favor of Clear field . The second half was much the same 路story and the final score was 21-0 in favor of Clearfleld. Orbisonia came to town for the fifth encounter. This was a . game between winless
elevens. The first half was scoreless, but in the fourth quarter Orbisonia scored . The defensive play of the Lions hit a new low in this game. Late in the fourth quarter, State started to roll, but by then the dam age had been done and time ran out. For the fifth time in the season, the Little Lions had lost, this time by a 6-0 score. Saturday afternoon, October 14, the Maroon and G ray traveled to Yeagertown. The game was all Yeagertown until the third quarter when State drove 65 yards for a touchdown. After this, Yeagertown again continued to dominate the game, winning 34-6. The following Friday, State played one of its better games against Philipsburg. The teams were closely matched and defense played a great part on both sides. But after the final whistle blew, the score read Philipsburg 13, State High 0. For State High's eighth game of the season, Tyrone came to town. At first it looked as though the Little Lions would beat the Golden Eagles . Eddie Miller ran the opening kickoff back 84 vards for a touchdown. Then Don Gates kicked the extra point, and State led 7-0. Midway in the first quarter, Tyrone scored, but missed their extra point try. State still led, 7-6, as the quarter ended . The Golden Eagles scored si x more times and the final score read 46-7. The final game of the season was played at Bellefonte on Armistice Day at 8 o'clock in the evening. Bellefonte, which had one of its better teams, was in command of the game the whole way. Leadinq 12 -0 at halftime, they just poured it on the second half. The final score was 39-0, and State hadn't won a game all season. The totals for the season read 257 points for the opposition to 37 for the Little Lions .

Junior Varsity Football
Junior High Football
After two very lean years, this fall's Junior Varsity Football edition compiled a rather suc cessful season under the able direction of John Hanna and "Skip" Glenn. The Jayvees lifted the lid by bowling over Philipsburg 21-0, with Cryder scoring twice and Sauers once . John Kennedy tossed two touchdown passes to Don Gates and Jim Holmes, spark ing the team to a 20-0 victory over Yeager town. The winning streak went to three games when Gates and Sauers tallied to topple Clear field 19-7. Then the boys dropped a disappointing 19-6 loss to Bellefonte but rebounded to fight a strong Lewistown eleven to a 7-7 deadlock . Then after pushing Lock Haven all over the field , they closed the season on a sour note by drop ping a 7-6 decision in the last few minutes of play.
Under the direction of coaches Sonny Griffith and Jim Maurey, the Junior Hi football team experienced a fairly successful season. The team lost many players from last yea r's squad which went undefeated in four tussles. The Lion Juniors humbled the Bellefonte squad 27-19 in the opener, as Ian Drew scored three touchdowns and Marlin Weaver one. The return bout with the county seaters also went to State, as Drew and Bill Myers crashed over for the .scores. The club lost two one-sided decisions to a much larger Philipsburg aggression 13-0 and 38-0. The final game resulted in a triumph at the expense of Yeagertown, 19-7. Drew counted twice, and Bill Hutchison bucked over fo r the other tally. The extra point chores were handled by Dean Witherite, who converted on five out of nine tries over the season.

Varsity Basketball The Litle Lions fell to their worst season since 1945. Racking up only three wins out of sixteen games the Maroon could do no better than take fifth place in the Central State League. John Kennedy, Warren Pyle and Pete Reist led the team in scoring, while Don Smith, Andy Zerban, and Ed Miller helped do the work on the blackboards. In the opening game with Centre Hall, Sonny Pearce and Warren Pyle scored 36 points between them to lead the Lions to a 57-48 victory. In this fray the State College team was never behind, and they led at halftime 31-21. It might be important to note that the Maroon led at halftime in eleven of their sixteen games but a disastrous third quarter always proved fatal and they were never able to catch up . Bellwood-Antis was the next team on the schedule and after a slow first quarter, the Statesmen pulled to a 13-10 lead at halftime. However, Bellwood noted the score and pulled ahead by two points late in the fourth quarter winning 38-37. Mifflinburg was the next team to hand a loss to the unlucky State College team, and they did it by a 48 -44 score. The Little Lions were unable to overcome a 22-18 halftime lead, although the game was quite even all the way. Against Philipsburg and Bellwood -Antis again it was the same story. The Weirmen led at the halftime, only to fall behind and never be able to catch up to their opponents. After the Christmas holidays the Central State League opened and State College met Bellefonte in their initial clash. The Red and White were just too much for the Statesmen although they led at half-time by three points. Lock Haven; the second league game, turned into a slaughter with the only bright spot twenty points scored by Warren Pyle.
The violent taste for victory was finally satisfied in a game against Jersey Shore when the Little Lion steamrollered the Bulldogs 62-47. Pyle continued his scoring spree by bucketing twenty one points, and John Kennedy followed him with fourteen. State grabbed an early lead and led at halftime 34-21. Pyle had bucketed exactly half of the State College total up to that time . Renovo was the third and final team to be downed and it took the Litle Lions an overtim<t to do it. The Maroon trailed at the half, 21-17 but turned the tables on their old jinx and, thanks to a tying foul shot by Don Smith, went into the extra period almost demanding a victory. They got it, but only after a fight which saw the lead change twice until the Lions froze the ball until time ran out. The final score was 40-39. For the final game of the first half of the league, State College met South Williamsport who were seeking a needed victory to put the leaque standings into a deadlock . The Lions had the advantage of their home floor, but this didn't help much in the holocaust that followed. Tricky pa~sing and even more tricky shots confused the Lions, amused the fans, and abused the contest which South won easily 67-32 . Opening the second half of the season was a game played at Jersey Shore.' A hot night was enjoyed by the Bulldogs and they took the Little Lions into camp 43-34. It was the same story against Renovo. State piled up an early lead only to see it disappear during the third quarter. At South Williamsport the show was pathetic. The Southsiders scored 21 points before the Maroon finally scored and a freeze by State was made in the fourth quarter to hold down the score.

Junior Varsity Basketball
Junior High Basketball
The final record of the Junior Varsity Basketball team was eight wins against six defeats . The only team State failed to beat at least once was Centre Hall. The J. V.'s lost only once at home. Bellefonte accomplished that feat in the final game of the season when they downed the Maroon juniors 51-50 in an overtime period. Bill Stoddart led the Junior Vars ity in scoring with 169 points in 13 games for an average of 13 points per game. Alf Kennedy was second with a nine point per game average. They were followed in the scoring路 race by George Homan, Don Lee, and Dick Morgan. Teams which the J. V.'s, under Yib Bolton's coaching, played this year were Bellwood-Antis, Mifflinburg, Philipsburg, Bellefonte, Lock Haven, Jersey Shore, Renovo, and Centre Hall.
Coach Harold Griffith's junior high cagers came through an undefeated 1950-51 season winning ten and losing none . The Little Lion juniors were pressed in only one game in winning the mythical county championship. That game was the final against Clearfield in which State had to come from behind a 20 -13 deficit to win 39-34. The Maroon juniors, in addition to defeating Clearfield twice, crushed Bellefonte, Philipsburg, Pine Grove Mills, and Centre Hall twice. Don Stickler was the high scorer for the Griffithmen, dropping in 130 points in ten games for an average of 13 points per game . Besides Stickler, Marlin Weaver, Ian Drew, Bill Hutchison and Paul Cryder made up the usual starting five. This team racked up the best slate of any State team this year in the number of games won.

Wrestling The State College High Schol wrestling team had a fair record in 1950-51. They won three meets, defeating Lock Haven, Muncy, and Lewistown, while dropping six contests. In district competition this year, two Maroon wrestlers won titles. Ken Hoy, a junior, won the 112 pound championship, and Andy Lentvorsky was king at 154 pounds. In winning, Lentvorsky pinned the previously undefeated 154 pound wrestler from Philipsburg who had defeated Andy earlier in the year. Bill Shawley, a senior, wrestling at 145 pounds, took third place in his

weight bracket, and was the only other State College wrestler to place. Lentvorsky's triumph was his second district crown, having won in the same weight class last year, and he went on this year to capture the P. I. A. A. State Championship award. Seniors wrestling for the varsity squad were Lentvorsky, Shawley, Jim Owens, and Stan Meyers. In addition to the seniors, three juniors and five sophomores wrestled in dual meets this year.

Soccer
Track
The Little Lion Soccer team ended a fairly good season winning six and losing six . Roy Harpster, Maroon forward, led the Centre County Soccer League with fifteen goals, and was selected for the League All-Star team. Jack Kline, Jim Moyer, and Lewie Rishel were selected to play in the first annual game between the Senior All-Stars and the Penn State Freshman Soccer team. The Lions, coached by John Serff, lifted the lid at Millheim and won a close 3-2 victory. Following this they dropped two close ones to Walker Township and Centre Hall. However, the Maroon then captured three straight wins to finish the first half of the League in the top division. In the second half the Lions were able to win only two games and so they wound up the season with six wins and six losses .
After sporting a twelve meet winning streak over a period of four years, the Little Lion track team will have to start to rebuild, following the breaking of the string last year. The five lettermen who form the nucleus of the 1951 track team are Jack Guerrant, Bob Fogg, Andy Zerban, Art Glenn and Bruce Carruthers. Don Vinson, â&#x20AC;˘Eugene Whitehouse, Dave Jones, Dick Kiel, Raymond Young, Bill Knebel, Luther Shope, and Ronnie Thomas will also bolster the State College aggregation. Once again Beaver Field will be the site of all of the Little Lion home track meets, and it will also be where the Class A and B State Championships in Track will be held.

Baseball
Under Coach Ph il A rmstrong, golf has always been one of the most winning sports at State High. After having a twelve-year unbeaten skein snapped in 1949, the Armstrongmen set sail on another streak . Bellefonte, Lock Haven, and Williamsport all fell victims twice to the accurate, long hitting Little Lions. The team plays six or 路 eight matches each year plus the district and state P. I. A. A. tournaments. El iminations are staged each week to determine the five boys who will play in the Friday matches.
-Last year State High completed its most dismal season in its history. The Hannamen, who were comparatively weak in every department, were weakened more by the loss of different seniors throughout most of the season . However, this loss served to give more experience to the underclassmen. The one b right spot in last year's season was the stunning victory by State High over mighty Lock Haven . Jack Kline, Stan Segner, Jim Owens, Don Smith, and Sonny Pearce were the members of the class of '51 who garnered the ir letters last year as juniors.

CLASS HISTORY held a very successful Soph Hop, with a theme of "Carousel." That was one of our early achievements, for no class had made a profit, as we did, for years. Both boys and girls went all-out for athletics again in our sophomore year . Those who were on the various teams are too many to mention by name. Margy Lewis and Tete Sheehe, new G. A. C. Board members, were initiated as Tarzan and Dorothy Lamour. We re-organized the Debate Club, sang in the Choir and Glee Club"s, played in the band, orchestra and jazz band, and generally made our presence felt, whether for good or bad. It seemed such a short time after we had heard her sing the Lord's Prayer so beautifully in the spring talent show that we were shocked by news of the tragic accident in which we lost our friend and classmate, Nancy Jones. We felt our loss deeply, and it sobered us. As juniors, we learned a little more English and a few basic principles of physics, struggled through plane geometry and suffered through basic business. We learned quite a few things not included in the regular curriculum, too numerous or too risque to mention here. Certainly one of the most vital of these new skills was the ability to operate and procure an automobile, which resulted in a "get-better-acquainted" policy with residents of nearby hamlets . Our class officers for that year were Dick Henninger, Pete Reist, Johnny Farrell, and Jean Bickle. Rita Fromm was elected president of the Youth Center Committee, which has worked long and faithfully, but with no tangible results cts yet; Marj Seward became a member of the G. A. C. Board; fifty-one presentea terrific junior plays; Andy Lentvorsky was co-captain of the football team and a district champ in wrestling. Also among the more memorable incidents in our eleventh year were the Aaronsburg pageant, in which many of our class participated, and the visit of The Evaluating Committee, who found Johnny snoozing peacefully in the band room. Another of our innovations was an informal Junior Prom, "Spring Fever." We could hardly believe that at last, after eleven years of struggle, we were seniors. The all-school president, Warren Pyle, and vice-president, Lewis Rishel, were seniors. Jean Bickle and Till Foster, G. A. C. Board members, were seniors. Our class officers were Red Owens, Art Anderson, Barbie Simonds, and Chuck Lutz. Barbie and Ben Sinclair were editors of the Piper and Maroon and Gray, and Anne Dreibelbis was the business manager of our yearbook. As the end of this experiment nears, we can look back on our memories of "hen" and "stag" parties, and "Open Houses" galore; Christmas dances; band trips; the trouble we got into; classes, both good and bad, and their teachers; hours we spent working on the Piper and our yearbook; trips to Bellefonte and elsewhere. They were wonderful years. "Commencement" is not the conclusion; it is the beginning. We will go on from here, confident that our high school days could not have been better.
Early in September, way back in 1945, the class of '51 entered the now-familiar portals of State High as the usual bewildered seventh graders. We learned our way around the school gradually and entered into the swing of things with a speed that should have been an indic~tion to our teachers of the probable result of this experiment with human character, but apparently they were still in a rosy glow from the summer, which came to a wonderful close with the end of the war. We cheered an undefeated football team and the Champions of the Centre County Soccer League, and we eagerly perused the scandal column of "The Snooper," a high-brow journal published weekly by our class. Those were the days of "Slam Books," "Free-for-alls" on Weskes' front lawn, and "Slumber Parties," with considerably more food than slumber. In eighth grade, as old-timers, we found new diversions such as attending strictly senior high functions, including mixers and the later half of the Canteen, and riding the dear old Nittany Transit bus line by the hour. Our musical members gave vent to their genius in the Junior High Band, Rhythm Ramblers, and Girls' Glee Club . Pat Gilbert and Sonny Pearce were presented with the American Legion medals for leadership. We reached the peak of something-or-other during our ninth year in the public schools. We were just halfway; we had top priority in junior high, in senior high we were almost nothing. Our class was increased by recruits from other junior high schools in the area, until we had the amazing sum of five home rooms. The Student Council, of which Scott Krug was president, planned a dance which led to one of our many brushes with the authorities. Disagreement as to the proper time to end the dance resulted in the presentation by the entire ninth grade of a highly successful "Sadie Hawkins Dance" at Woodman Hall. Many of our athletic boys represented us on the various teams. The girls were active in sports, too . Bev Perez and Pat Gilbert were elected to serve on the G. A. C. Board, and some of the girls tried out for cheerleading. Bev Perez, Peewee Wild, and Carol Young were chosen. We were first exposed to Dr. Andrews' genius in Junior A Cappello, to which seventy-one of our class belonged. Our singing probably impressed no one but a few loving parents, but we ourselves enjoyed it. During the time we were members of the afore-mentioned musical organization, Johnny Farrell made history and began I a long and bitter feud by hitting the top of the new piano. After a hectic summer, we at last reached Senior High! Again our class expanded to include more pupils or students, as the case may be, from the surrounding townships, including the city of Pine Grove Mills. We were privileged to elect our first class officers, who were Jack Kline, president; Jim Moyer, vice-president; Pat Gilbert, secretary; and Margy Lewis, treasurer. Under those officers, the class of fifty-one 66
CLASS WILL
We, the members of the senior class of State College High School, being of sound mind and good spirits, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament. Sue Seckinger donates her car and healthy crop of "freeride" customers to Francie Spannuth with hopes that Francie will continue the fine old tradition of touring all nearby villages. Andy Lentvorsky leaves his fighting spirit to be distributed equally among any eleven juniors in order to produce a winning football team next year. Anne Dreibelbis wills her MAROON AND GRAY ledger to "anyone who wants it!" To the class of fifty-two's hapless president for next year, Red Owens leaves the responsibility for a crew of irresponsible seniors. Her unfailing effervescence Tete Sheehe passes on to Molly Kerstetter. Betty Rice bequeaths her amazing sense of the dramatic to her sister Marilee. To some fortunate student of chemistry next year, Ann Williams leaves her "childish curiosity", excellent "technique", and collection of beakers full of the results of many experiments. Dick Henninger and Walter Markle regretfully leave the projection room with its accumulation of pop bottles and cigarette butts to the juniors, Art Glenn and Bob Tressler in particular. In witness whereof, we, the departing class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-one, have to this, our last will and testament, affixed and set our hand and seal. Signed, The Senior Class of 19 51
