A 1945 Encyclopedia of Famous People. PLACE - A Shelf in a Library. TIME - Midnight, 1946. Hist. - I am so glad it's midnight. Ever since you have been placed beside me this morning I've been dying to speak to you and now the time has come when I may. Encyclo. - I have been a little curious myself. You know I am just off the press and it feels so queer to be up here on this shelf. Just think what will happen to my nice new back if I should fall. Hist. - Well, don't worry, I have been here a year and haven't fallen yet. My name is "A History of the American People." What's yours? Encyclo - "The 1945 Encyclopedia of Famous People." Hist. - That sounds interesting. I imagine you are just full of interesting stories. I have been so bored lately. There was an old dictionary beside me, and he was always asking me for stories and could never tell me anything thrilling in return. Do tell me a story. Encyclo. - Oh, my dear Hist. I think you ought to tell me one first. You are the older and should speak first. Age before beauty, you know. Hist. - Very well. What shall it be? Something about George Washington or Abraham Lincoln? Encyclo. - (In disgust.) Ah, no! Something about someone not so well known and more recent. Some little group of people who have become famous, then perhaps I can tell you something about each one of them. Hist. - I am afraid I don't have any like that. Just a moment till I consult my index. (He consults his index, seems to have a little difficulty, then at last.) Ah, here is one that is very good. "The History of the Class of 1925 of Tyrone High School," page 287. Encyclo. - That's fine. I know I have something about Tyrone. Hist. - All right, here goes. In 1913 there entered in the schools of Tyrone, Pennsylvania, a class of young boys and girls that was to become one of the most famous in the lives of the American people. There were 211 who started to school that fall in various buildings. There was little of the unusual done (except for the marks the members of this group received) until they reached the fifth grade. It was at this time that the World War was in progress, and there was a great need for supplies in the Red Cross department. The boys of Room 6, Adams Avenue School, knitted two comforts for this cause and received a letter of honorable mention. In the eighth grade they again came into prominence publicly in both Adams and Logan. At Adams there were originated boys' and girls' basket ball teams, something never before done. At Logan about eight of the girls formed themselves into a "Wohelo" Club. They had rings made for them by a Spanish girl in the school, gave a party for their mothers, and at Christmas season gave baskets to the poor. The Logan Avenue section at the close of their last year there gave a large party to their teachers in appreciation for the effort expended on them. The parents were also invited. Then began the most important part of their life. High school! For the first time they were all united into one large mass. Encyclo. - Oh, I say, isn't mass rather a poor word to use? Hist. - No, it isn't, for as yet they hadn't become a body. One half did not know that the other half existed, and it was not until after they organized and elected officers that they became a real body. President - Clarence Eyer. Vice President - Harold Miller. Secretary - Claude Smith. Treasurer - Wilbur Ammerman. Social Manager - John Sprankle. Their Freshman year they sailed through with every social event a success. They demonstrated an unusual amount of school spirit, but that was only to be expected. The most tragic part of this year was the loss of members. The total number of Freshmen in the fall of 1921 was 149. The Sophomore year was started with 114 of the 149 remaining. The officers elected this time were: President - Arthur Ferrier. Vice President - Claude Smith. Secretary-Treasurer - James Gardner. Social Manager - Adaline Hoffman. This year the athletics were greatly participated in by members of this class and three of its members were leading characters in the school play, "Kathleen." Their social successes eclipsed those of former years and added new laurels to their crown. In the fall of 1923, eighty-six members of the original class began their Junior year. This time they chose new officers, and used an entirely new system. There were two parties formed, each with its own candidates and its own platform. By this system the following were elected: President - James Black. Vice President - Chester Edwards. Secretary - Harold Miller. Treasurer - Earle Westley. Social Managers - Alta Shimer, Arthur Ferrier. Their participation in school activities was even more intense. They were prominent in basket ball, football, dramatics, and debating. With the Junior Oratorical Contest was inaugurated another innovation. Instead of having each contestant write his own speech, and consequently having them rather dull, they gave things of various natures by worthy authors. Then followed the most resplendent Junior "Prom" ever given. Seniors! The goal of each member since the fall of 1913. At the beginning of the year there were 51 in the class. They had lost many since their entrance into High School, some leaving school, some dropping behind, but with those remaining they made a record in their Senior year to be envied by classes gone by, and one to be aspired to by those to come. Their class officers were: President - Morris Morgan. Vice President - Robert Boyer. Secretary-Treasurer - Adaline Hoffman. Social Manager - Frances Sickler. In June of 1925 this illustrious body of young people set out into the world. It is only necessary to look up the following in any encyclopedia to see to what heights they have attained. (To Encyclo.) Then there are a lot of names. What did you think of it? Encyclo. - Very good. And I just have lots about each member of that class. Hist. - Oh, do you? Tell me? I have often thought I should like to know what became of them. Encyclo. - Well, I am not going to take them alphabetically because that makes it so tiresome. Here's Alta Shimer, the - Hist. - Encyclo., you just give me the story of them very briefly because it is getting near the time when we will have to stop talking. Encyclo. - All right. Alta Shimer, the famous interior decorator. After leaving high school in 1925 she studied dancing under Ned Wayburn and was for two years in Ziegfield Musical Comedies and Revues. During this time she did not give up her original idea of being an interior decorator, and studied during the day at Columbia University when not rehearsing for a new production. At the end of two years she almost finished her course, and had saved enough money to finish without dancing professionally. When ready to work she took the "bull by the horns" and opened her own establishment. She soon won a reputation for herself, and her business grew enormously. She is now living at 1724 Riverside Drive, New York City, Her private secretary is an old schoolmate of hers, Myrtle Stonebraker. Miss Stonebraker was holding a very responsible position in Altoona, Pa., when Miss Shimer sent for her. Since she has been with Miss Shimer she has received several offers from numerous business men in New York, but prefers her work with Miss Shimer. That is about all for her. The next is Jon Davisky. Hist. - Why, surely there were not Russians in that class. Encyclo. - No. Jon is not Russian. When he went to school he was John Davis. He went to the Denisshawn School of Dancing for several years, then went to Europe where he acquired great skill and the Russian sound to his name. He is now recognized as one of the greatest dancers alive. On his first appearance in New York he received the greatest applause that has ever greeted a dancer. He started on a world-wide tour with his own company in 1944. Hist. - Is that all about him? Encyclo. - Yes. (A pause.) Here is Clara Grazier, a noted kindergarten teacher and authoress. She spent several years in preparation for this work and has been a very successful teacher in Philadelphia. She has written numerous books dealing with kindergarten work, among which are "Kindergarten Work and Play," and "The Ideal Kindergarten." She has also written a number of stories for children of the age with which she works. Hist. - I have always thought that a woman who did things like that would make a lovely acquaintance. Encyclo. - So have I. The next one is Albert Shollenberger, a mechanical expert. His name is usually linked with that of Lee Wagner because of their collaboration in their many inventions. These inventions have resulted in decreasing the number of employed in a factory fifty per cent. They have both realized huge fortunes. Wagner specializes on electricity and Shollenberger on the mechanical side of their work. They have gained their position by constant hard work. They are both happily married. (Pause while Encyclo. hunts through for someone else.) Oh, yes! Lewis Berkstresser, editor of the "Pittsburgh Press". After ten years as a reporter and specialty writer for this paper, Berkstresser was made one of the assistant editors. Five years later, in 1940, he was made editor. It was some time after his promotion that he married Virginia Garman of Tyrone, Pa., his home town. They are living in the Squirrel Hill section of Pittsburgh. (Another pause for the same reason.) Elizabeth Dawson, a champion typist. Her first conquest was the amateur championship. Then followed the professional award to her in 1930. Since that time she has been employed by the Underwood Typewriter Company. It is rumored that she will soon leave the public eye and become the typist for some lucky man. Hist. - Hum! Sounds like a scandal paper. Encyclo. - Yes, my author believed in putting a little of that sort of thing in. Robert Boyer, mining engineer of great note, because of this work in Alaska. Having completed his college course, he was employed for several years by different firms. In 1933 he took a position offered him by the government and since that time has been in Alaska. Aside from the mere technical side of his work, he has written a number of exceedingly interesting novels dealing with Alaskan life. (Pause, just a short one.) Ralph Hall, the noted millionaire. His fortune is almost uncomputable. In 1940 when he paid Norman Hazel, the best accountant available, $200,000.00 to go over his books, records, and so forth. The more Mr. Hazel worked, the larger became the figures. The total of his fortune is not printed here because the pages are not wide enough to carry all the figures. Hist. - He must have been wealthy! (Wonderingly.) How did he get it all? Encyclo. - That is the queer part of it. My author doesn't say. But just imagine getting $200,000.00. He must be a real accountant. Now here is Adaline Hoffman, a prominent social worker. She and her friend, Frances Sickler, have done a great deal of good in the city of New York with their settlement houses and kindred good works. They have influenced a number of the prominent New York business men to support this work. It is interesting to note one of the ways they used of obtaining the aid of the greatest criminal lawyers in the country, Morris Morgan, His private secretary was an old classmate of theirs, Margaret Benson, and through her help they kept the matter so continually before him that at length he came through and has not only given them his own aid, but secured the assistance of a number of his acquaintances. Hist. - They must be awfully clever girls to do that. And his secretary, she must have been of invaluable help. Encyclo. - You have no idea? Something occurred (it is whispered that an old school friend, "Timmy" Garman, had thrown him over) that had embittered him against life and so that made the job doubly difficult. What do you suppose the next one is? Hist. - I have no idea. Encyclo. - A missionary. Her name is Ruth Rhodes. She is in China and is very successful. Her articles that appear in "Home and Foreign Missions" are looked forward to with great expectation by the readers. (Pause.) Harry Wooden, an electrical expert of note, has been connected for the last ten years with the General Electric Company of Pittsburgh, Pa. He has advanced steadily and is now superintendent of one of the numerous divisions. Here is another Davis. Seth his name is. Hist. - Is he a brother of the dancer. Encyclo. - I don't know. It is likely, though, for he is a theatrical producer. He has taken the place of Ziegfield in the field of the sensational revue. He began at the bottom and worked up to the position he now occupies. Each year's production is more sumptuous than the last. He is truly a genius in his line. (A long pause to get breath.) Charles Ginter, the corporation lawyer of the Packard Motor Car Company. Having finished his schooling at Harvard, he began his practice of law and soon came into the public eye. It was at this time that the Packard Company lost their lawyer, and in looking for another to fill his place, chose Ginter. He steadily advanced and is now the Vice-president of the Company. Leroy Williams, Cleveland's city engineer. Williams did not have a "drag" or anything of the kind. He has won his position through merit and hard work alone. It was only in 1938 that he received his present position which he is filling so admirably. The city is honored to get such a competent civil engineer. Hist. - They seem to have scattered pretty well over the world, don't they? Encyclo. - Yes. Now, there is one in California. Arthur Ferner is head of the English Department at the University of California. He is the youngest professor who has ever attained that position. His name has been mentioned for presidency but has been rejected on account of his age only. His wife is Frances Gordon, who taught music for a number of years at the University and gave numerous recitals, before becoming Mrs. Ferner. They have a lovely home in the California Hills. (The silent leafing of pages is heard.) Sara Snyder, the noted physician. She has made some of the most remarkable discoveries in the line of medicine that have been made in the last half century. Her hospital in Baltimore is one of the best in the land. (More pages turned.) Margaret Woodring is a member of the Metropolitan Opera Company. After leaving high school and studying for several years in this country, she went to Europe and there, under the master hand of Manestro Piatre Carconatre, developed one of the best voices ever heard. She appeared in several operas in Paris, then went to South America, where she was wonderfully received. Upon her arrival in this country, the Metropolitan Opera Company seized upon her. She has been acclaimed one of their greatest sopranos. My goodness, here are three of that class who are working together, Harold Miller, Walter Thomas, and Earle Westley, a triumvirate of electrical geniuses who are at the head of one of the most progressive electrical firms in the country. Their large plant, located at their home town, Tyrone, Pa., is modern in every sense of the word and their typists and secretaries - Alice Scruders acting as office manager - are kept in a constant maze of work. Without Miss Scruders' cool head governing each action there would be chaos. The owners realize this and are kept in constant fear lest she should get married and leave them in the lurch. They have tried to get her to sign a time contract, but she refuses. Hist. - That must be a big boost for the town. Encyclo. - It must be. Now here is Vivian Weighaman, the famous pianist and artist. She has just recently finished painting the frieze in the new library at Washington, D. C. As a pianist she is universally recognized, having toured throughout the United States and Europe. (More rustling of pages is audible.) Edna Fink has won recognition as a court stenographer. It was in the famous Stoddard vs. The State of Pennsylvania case when her faultless notes turned the tide of justice. Hist. - Would you think such a thing possible? Encyclo. - No, I wouldn't, but such a thing has happened. Viola Kephart is the author of "Comprehensive French" in three volumes, for high school text-books. She is head of the French and Algebra Departments in Peabody High School, Pittsburgh. Joseph Gardner is one of the largest retail druggists in the United States. He has several hundred stores scattered all over the country. From 1940 to 1944 there were two hundred new Gardner Drug Stores opened in various towns and cities. Janet Smith, a famous traveler. She began her career when she won an auto race at Cincinnati, Ohio. This was the only venture of this kind and since 1932 she has been a representative of the National Geographic Society. She has been in almost every quarter of the globe and her accounts of her adventures are thrillingly told. Hist. - That always seemed to me to be an ideal position - just traveling. Encyclo. - Here are William Gunter and John Hiltner, second Edisons. These two men have filled the place left vacant by Thomas Edison. They believe that "two heads are better than one" and so get a great deal accomplished. Every one is familiar with their many, many inventions in every-day use. Their "Static Eliminator" alone is worthy of undying praise. Regina Moffet is the private secretary to the husband of one of her school friends, Roberta Brower Lamborn. Mr. Lamborn is one of the most influential men in the country and all of his articles for the press and his speeches are criticized by Miss Moffet. "The Mountain Heights Sanitorium" is one of the most famous rest-cure resorts in the country. Situated high in the Allegheny Mountains, it is ideal in location. Expert treatment for every malady is given by a very competent corps of nurses headed by the owners of the institution, Elizabeth Chamberlain. Dorothy Fleck, Helen Flenner, and Emily Mattern. This sanatarium has doubled its size in the last four years and the owners are far from being in any financial difficulties. Hist. - What do you think of that kind of place? I think they must be grand. Frequently after my back has been bent I feel as if I needed such a place. Encyclo. - I would like to spend some time there myself. Ethel Hickes, author of the "Hickes' System of Shorthand." Miss Hickes, a teacher herself for many years, developed her own system of shorthand and it has been adopted in many schools, the number increasing each year. John Miller, one of the most famous artists and cartoonists of the present day. His painting, "Grey Dawn," received first prize at the Metropolitan Art Exhibit three years ago, (1942) and his occasional cartoons are truly gems of satire. He is one of the few artists whose works will remain, not for a time, but for all time. John Funk, the city engineer of Tyrone, Pa., received a great responsibility when the electrical works went up, but he bore it splendidly with the aid of Bonnalyn Price Funk, his wife. Hist. - Did he belong to the Class of '25? Encyclo. - No, but his wife did. After all, you know, it's the wife that really counts. Now, here is Edward Kelly, the actor. He became famous through his great success in the title role of Rostand's play, "Cyrano de Bergerac." He has been off the stage for some months resting at his summer home at Port au Prince from his strenuous labors. The public has gone wild over his acting and his new play, opening at the Century Theatre, New York City, in October, 1945, will probably be given to capacity houses. Kathleen Stover has become notable through her "Manual for Teachers." Her book is full of practical suggestions that she knows from experience will have effect. Joseph Meredith, the head of the Directorial Staff of the Woolworth Five and Ten Cent Stores, Inc., owes much of his success to the untiring efforts of his wife, Gladys Stover Meredith. It was she who kept his eye always fixed on the position just ahead. He started in as just a stockroom clerk and is now one of the highest salaried men in the company. Hist. - That just shows what perseverance can do, doesn't it? Encyclo. - It certainly does. Now I have come to the last two of this class. Hist. - It is about time, for in a few minutes it will be dawn and then we will have to keep quiet. Encyclo. - These two are William Metcalfe and James Durham, the finest mechanical engineers in the country. Their most notable work was the Providence Bridge, which is said to be the most wonderful bridge in the world. These two men are kept on the jump continually from one side of the continent to the other. They - (But the faint rays of dawn have crept into the dark corner of the library and the two books close with a snap. As the light increases, the curtain falls.) CURTAIN [Photo Collage] JUNIORS [photo] CLASS OFFICERS President - James R. Black Vice President - George A. Eschbach Secretary - James L. Grazier Treasurer - Joe Cady Social Manager - Alice Miller Manager of Class Athletics - Wilbur Ammerman Class Dean - Miss Bayle The Class of 1926 This marks the close of a very successful year for the Junior class of Tyrone High School. Our class has diminished but little since we have been the Class of '26. As is true of most of the Freshman classes now entering the high school, we were, at the time we entered, the largest class ever entering the school. Of course it took then more room to accommodate the class than it does now, but after all we feel like the same old "bunch" and we certainly have not lost our spirit. No one can truthfully say that we have been inactive in school activities because a good number of the players in both football and basketball are Juniors. All three of the cheer leaders are Juniors and that is saying quite a lot because every one admits that the cheer leaders this year were especially good. As for socials and other class activities we have not fallen short. To begin with, the officers were very efficient and have handled class affairs with the attitude of experienced men. On Monday, September 8, 1924, the class met and selected the officers to serve for the school year. Then came the question of who should be our Dean. By a unanimous vote Miss Bayle was chosen to help steer our class successfully through the year. Miss Bayle has had, shall we say, the privilege of being home room teacher of the Junior boys and they in turn have enjoyed her fellowship and helpful suggestions. We felt quite proud of our class rings this year because they were a little different from any other style ring of any previous classes and the day they arrived there was no containing the Juniors. So great was the excitement that the rings were not given out until after school hours. Peggy Miller proved herself to be a very good social manager in the one party that we gave. All the class strove hard to make the party a success and they surely did. The party this year was quite different from any other party we had held before, and also different from any of the previous class parties. The corridor of the high school was decorated with floor lamps, carpets, pennants, large comfortable chairs, and all sorts of fancy decorations. The entertainment was well prepared and was enjoyed by all the guests. The eats were served with the usual good style which the Juniors are capable of displaying. The sledding party was a great success. Some say it was a hike, but everyone proclaimed they had loads of fun, so we cannot complain if everyone had a good time. Myra Miller, an accomplished Junior, held numerous parties which were attended largely by members of our class. At this time we cannot say as to how the "Prom" will turn out, but we are hoping to make it rank among the best and think we may safely say that we will. Mr. Slaybaugh frequently reminds us that we will soon be Seniors, and so we will. It doesn't seem possible that three whole years have sped around so quickly, but here it is 1925 and we graduate in 1926. So let us hold together and keep the old spirit until at last we depart from the halls of our beloved Alma Mater. JAMES L. GRAZIER, '26. A JUNIOR SONNET When in disgrace in mom and papa's eyes, I all alone beweep my bum report, And trouble-deaf teachers with my bootless cries To change my grades, they only stand and snort. I wish me like to one more rich in A's, Able to bluff like him, like him with brains possessed, Desiring this boy's luck and winning ways, With the D's I always get contented least. Yet in these thoughts, of passing clean despairing, Haply I think of thee, dear Tyrone High, Of all the fun and friends, athletic daring, Which I shall miss when I have left thee, why Then I'm glad to flunk and linger here, To have more fun and cultivate good cheer. SOPHOMORE [photo] CLASS OFFICERS President - Clarence Woodring Vice President - Sara Patton Secretary - Margaret Campbell Treasurer - Flo Mogle Social Manager - Gladys Prough Class Dean - Miss Oppel The Sophomore Class The Class of 1927 was organized last year and from the day that it first met as a class until the present time it has been prominent in every branch of school life. During the Freshman year the class gave evidence of unusual strength and ability, causing its more sturdy opponents to wonder if they had not met their equals. Shortly after returning to school last fall a new group of officers were elected, and under their guidance and leadership, 1927 has been developing materially, not only in class work but also in school activities. With the election of class officers came the choosing of class colors - blue and silver. Of course with the selection of colors came the demand for class caps. And, when they arrived, the upper classmen were much surprised to find that the originality of our caps showed that we did not need their ideas to help us with ours. But best of all! "Sopho's Circus" proved to be the hit of the season. Upon entering the building that night everything seemed to be in a turmoil for it was Circus Day. The corridor was so well camouflaged that one thought that he was not in "Make Believe" but in "Reality." The first event was the parade, consisting of the Siamese Twins, rope walkers, minstrels, clowns, wild animals, the fat lady, smallest and tallest men, and last of all poor Cinderella (Betty Moffet) drawn in her coach by her two favorite horses. The gallant Prince Charming and Noble King were portrayed by Ken Lewis and Rowdy Miller. The Orange and Black Orchestra furnished the music throughout the evening. The fortune- telling booth, side shows, clogging, and last of all - the eats, helped to make "Sopho's Circus" a real success. This may sound too boastful - but we are proud of our Class of '27. And why not? Never before in the history of T. H. S. was there ever such a successful party. If you will look over the cast of players for "Princess Bonnie" and "Fleurette" you will notice that some of the best dancers are members of our class. Not only that but you will find a large number of us in the different musical organizations. Our class does not lack in athletics. The Sophomore Class has been well represented in the major sports of the school, football and basketball. We are proud of our athletic record up to this time and there are still two years ahead of us in which we expect to achieve greater things. MARGARET CAMPBELL. ANNA McCONAHY. The teacher's mercy is much strained; It droppeth as the frozen hail from heaven Upon the place beneath (pretty hard); It curseth those that give and those that take; It is the cruelest ofthe cruel; it becomes The throned teachers better than their specs; Their red ink shows the force of temporal power, The attribute to awe and majesty Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of pupils. Mercy should season our marks. Therefore, teachers, Though justice be thy plea, consider this - That in the course of justice, none of us Should see graduation. We do pray for mercy. FRESHMAN [photo] CLASS OFFICERS President - Graham Charles Vice President - Frances Cady Secretary - James Funk Treasurer - Jay Fleck Class Dean - Miss Ash The Freshman Class The history of the Freshman Class began with its organization. On February 2, 1925, a meeting was called and a fair representation of the class, with Mr. Bell as moderator, met to organize into a single unit the largest, (and we think the finest) class of boys and girls ever to enter the Tyrone High School. At this meeting the officers were elected. The Freshman Class has firmly resolved to work together with such vigor that the time when they became a unit shall mark an epoch in the history of Tyrone High School. A few days later Miss Ash was appointed our class dean. We feel sure that with Miss Ash as our dean, to direct and encourage us, we will accomplish great things toward the betterment of ourselves and the school in general. Several days later a meeting was called and Miss Ash was given a standing vote of confidence and thanks. A few announcements were made concerning our future activities and the first real meeting of our class was adjourned. We met for the second time about a week later. At this meeting we had some real business to transact. The selection of our class colors was discussed. Many were suggested, and the final vote taken showed our selection to be cherry and white. The committees for the year were appointed. They stand as follows: Social Committee - Chairman, Betty Hepler; Geraldine Gingerich, Christy Albright, Joseph McWilliams, Mary Kessler. Lookout Committee - Farran Zerbe, Phyllis Kinkead, Arthur Moore, Lorraine Batchelor, Marjorie Garman, Then as a grand finale to this meeting it was announced that the Freshman Social would be held Friday, February 27, 1925. So the Social Committee with the aid of Miss Ash worked untiringly to make our first party a success. On Friday at 8 p. m., about 75 Freshmen assembled in the lower corridor to enjoy the party. The party was held in the form of an entertainment for the King and Queen of Freshmen Land. The following program was given: Selection - Orchestra Spanish Dance - Nineveh Kirk, Josephine Kanour Eating Contest - John Grazier, Albert Freeman Selection - Orchestra Sketch - Freshman Girls Uke Selection - Mary Kessler, Betty Hepler Class Prophecy - Elizabeth Van Scoyoc Song - Mary Kessler, Marjorie Garman Selection - Orchestra At the completion of the program, refreshments were served. Needless to say - they were "enjoyed by all." About 10:30 p.m. the orchestra played "Home Sweet Home." We took the hint and left, everyone saying he felt the party was the very best ever. We've heard it rumored, too, that it was the very best of the season. This is only the beginning. We intend to do much more, but as the FALCON goes to press early, we can only record the first of the activities of the Class of 1928. GRAHAM CHARLES, '28. TO A FRESHMAN (With Apologies to Shakespeare.) Is this a Freshman I see before me, His back towards the wall? Come, roll this eraser. I clutch thee not, yet I see thee still. Art thou not, most ungracious rubberneck, Going to come to papa; or art thou going To dodge me? I see thee still; And on thy bib are spots of egg Which were not there yesterday. I see this still; thou takest me the way thou are going; Mine eyes are made the tools of mine brain, My feet also. Aha! At last! Kneel, thou beast, roll that eraser, thou brute. Dost thou like it? Well, like it. Or like it not, roll it, I tell you. (Pause to indicate lapse of time.) I go, it is done, the bell summons me. Hear it not, gummie, for it invites thee to thy doom, Which will be met pretty soon.

History of "The Spokeman" for 1925 A few days after the beginning of the school term, 1924-25 the "Spokesman" staff was appointed by Miss Bayle, faculty advisor. As soon as the staff had had a meeting to lay plans, its members with the help of a few other students waged a campaign for subscriptions. The first sign of the drive was seen in Chapel where a play was staged which emphasized the fact that everyone needed the "Spokesman." Two teams, Orange and Black, were then organized and through the rivalry a large circulation list was obtained. The first issue of the "Spokesman" was an introductory edition, the first one of its kind of which we know. This issue was of course small, having been published so early in the year, but it truly represented the excellence of the numbers to come. The next number was dedicated to the Freshmen, which is more recognition than Freshmen of other schools usually receive. True to the class it was dedicated to, it was published in a bright green cover. The next number of note was the one given over to the campaign for a Junior High School. In this issue the school body was awakened to the inadequate facilities for education in our present building. During the year the old custom of setting aside a day of each month as "Spokesman Day" was discontinued. Material suitable for the "Spokesman" was obtained from the regular work of the English classes. The Staff has been tireless in its efforts to publish a good paper. "Art" Ferner, Editor-in-Chief, added to his already endless labors by serving as Editor for several departments during their regular head's absence. Robert Boyer with his assistant, Josephine Kanour, worked hard to make the Literary Department interesting and succeeded. Edward Kelly with his force of reporters made the School News Department bigger and better than ever. Morris Morgan, assisted by Clara Grazier, very ably wrote up the football and basket ball games. Adaline Hoffman should be commended for the efficient manner in which she kept us in touch with the Alumni. And in like manner the heads of the other departments, Roberta Brower as Joke Editor, who although she left school during the second semester made an enviable record with her assistants, James Black and Marlin Stewart; Alta Shimer, and Ernest Weyant, who later took her position, as Exchange Editors: and Josephine Derr as Music Editor, did their utmost to make their departments measure up to the ideals of former editors. Jack Miller and Gerald Flenner gave the "Spokesman" a classy appearance with their original cuts. We were to be congratulated for having artists of so much talent on the staff. Lee Wagner as Circulation Manager. the Advertising Manager, Joseph Cady, and James Durham, his successor, with their force of assistants, and William Metcalfe as Business Manager, saw to the delivering and financing of the "Spokesman." By their labors, especially in advertising, the Spokesman was made possible. Much appreciation too is due to the business men of the town who advertised in the "Spokesman." The school contributed some very good material to the "Spokesman" this year. A box was placed in the lower corridor for collecting jokes and stray news. In this way everyone could be a "Spokesman" reporter. May the students of T. H. S. in the future be as successful with the publishing of the "Spokesman" as we have been in the past year. And may the staffs in after years excel in that in which this year's staff has failed. We hope the day will come when the "Spokesman" will have the honor of being the perfect school paper. ERNEST WEYANT, '26. Gen Three Club The Gen Three Club had their first meeting at the beginning of this school year for the purpose of electing officers. Sam Thompson was made President. The other officers elected were Vice President, Ethel Hickes; Secretary, Jo Kanour; and Treasurer, James Gwin. The aim of the Gen Three Club this year, as it has been for the last two years, is to present the Commercial Department with some article of equipment. Last year the Club purchased a filing cabinet for the department. This year it contemplates purchasing an adding machine which is much needed in Commercial work. We planned another Christmas party this year, but due to the scarlet fever epidemic, school was closed earlier than anticipated: the result was no party. At the next meeting it was decided there would be a debate: the question was: "Resolved: That Pitman Shorthand is Better Than Gregg." The judges of the debate were Mr. Eisenhart, Mr. Bell, Miss Bayle. Dr. Farrand, and Mr. Elwood Snyder. The debaters for the affirmative were Charles Ginter, Margaret Benson, Jo Kanour, and Wilbur Schaul. For the negative, Chester Edwards, Jo Derr, Albert Shollenberger, and Ethel Hickes. The arguments of both sides were fine in fact, so equally matched that the decision was 3-2 in favor of the affirmative. This debate was especially interesting because there has been a possibility of introducing Gregg Shorthand into the high school. Many interesting features of each system were brought to light. "Gee Three" is a strictly Commercial club, organized three years ago. The members must be Juniors or Seniors. Every person in order to be eligible to join the club must have a good scholastic standing or they are dropped from the roll. This tends to keep a membership of interested workers. All Commercials are glad to be members of this organization and we feel sure we shall always be proud of the "Gee Three" Commercial Club, and the work it has done in the school. ETHEL, HICKES, '25. Gen Three Club [photo] President - SAMUEL THOMPSON Vice President - ETHEL HICKES Secretary - JOSEPHINE KANOUR Treasurer - JAMES GWIN Advisors - MISS ASH, MISS OPPEL The "Hi-Y" Club [photo] Early in November Mr. McFeaters and the Boys' Work Committee of the Y. M. C. A. met with about eighteen boys with the intentions of organizing a "Hi-Y" Club in Tyrone, and, after sending eight boys to the Lewistown Older Boys' Conference, we organized our club. Now it is in full swing with a full roll of thirty members of the three upper classes of Tyrone High and of the Y. M. C. A. The officers of the club are: JAMES L. GRAZIER - President EDWARD KELLY - Vice President JOSEPH B. CADY - Secretary and Treasurer Their work is already being noticed. They have had several social and religious events which have benefitted the community and they are living up to the purpose for which they organized - "To create, maintain, and extend throughout the high school and community, high standards of Christian character."

Glee Clubs It is impossible to say that Tyrone Hi does not have a good "ear for music," as the saying goes, and for the year '24-'25, Orpheus seems to have showered an unusual amount of melody into our midst. Miss Zimmers, the very able director of the Glee Clubs, led us into new and interesting channels, and it must be admitted, that it was more or less fascinating. At the beginning of the term, it was decided that the one-quarter credit would not be given to members who missed more than three practices without legal excuses. This was in accordance with the state laws, and the clubs did very well in observing and upholding the regulation. A great amount of money was spent in buying music for the Orchestra and Glee Clubs, and many hard but worth-while hours were spent in practicing such masterpieces as "Meditation," based on the Bach-Gounod "Ava Maria;" "Serenade," by Schubert; "Amaryllis," the fanciful French dance song, and lighter melodies such as "To a Wild Rose." by MacDowell. The Girls' Glee Club contributed these lovely songs, while the Boys' worked long and faithfully at the "Beduoin Love Song," "Absent," "Soldiers' Chorus" from Faust. and the "Invictus." All these are to be presented to the public some time in April, but at the time of this writing, the event has not yet occurred. However, if it is as successful as the short concerts have been, which were given in chapel, we can be sure of an extremely artistic recital. During the year. many of the Glee Club members gave short sketches, sang or played in chapel, and it surely did improve the assembly period, which would have often lacked in pep otherwise. Some of these people were: Ed Kelly - Singing the lovely Chinese melody "No Tickee-No Shirtee:" for an encore, the passionate "At Dawning," ("I Love You"). Both of these were rendered in a highly brilliant manner. Harold Miller "dripped" the accompaniment. Margaret Woodring - Singing first "By the Waters of Minnetonka," and then "In an Old Garden." Peg has a good voice and it surely was beautiful. She also played several of MacDowell's numbers. Frances Sickler - Sang "O Sole Mio," and "A Kiss in the Dark." During the rendition of the latter, a noticeable "Oh" went over the boys' section of the assembly. Mildred Berringer-Playing several beautiful compositions. One was by Rachmaninoff, and one by Rubenstein. They were both lovely. "Sally" Taylor played "Valse Arabesque" and "The Rosary." Both were done splendidly. She also played a duet in company with Peg Miller. John Davis sang "Memory Lane." Due to the short length of time, an encore was prohibited, but we enjoyed what was sung. Margaret Campbell played several very pretty selections and they were greatly appreciated. "Jo" Derr sang "The World is Waiting for the Sunrise" and "Moon Dream Shore." Dick Hamer, John Davis, George Eschbaugh, and Art Ferner sang several songs as a quartet. All these participants are very talented, and for their share toward making chapel interesting, Miss Zimmers thanks them. Much of the material for the John B. Rogers play this year was supplied by the Glee Clubs, and we are sure that much of the success of that production is due to the trained talent which forms the membership of these organizations. The singing both of the principals and of the chorus members of "Fleurette" was indeed excellent. We feel certain, however, that had it not been for the fact that the voices were trained and developed in the Glee Clubs that the musical numbers would have been much less effective. JOSEPHINE DERR, '26. The Home Economics Club The first meeting of the Home Economics Club was held this year Monday, the first of December. The following officers were elected: President - CATHRYN HARDY Vice President - ELIZABETH VAN SCOYOC Treasurer - ELIZABETH WALKER Secretary - FRANCES CADY Press Agent - DOROTHY BROWER Corresponding Secretary - HELEN GOSS Under the efficient directing of the Club's advisor, Miss Lucas, several very interesting and instructive programs have been given. In February a "Children's Party" was given and proved a great success. The following program was presented A Solo - Margaret Gates Violin Duet - Janet Hepler, Adelaide Gingerich Vocal Duet - Mary Kessler, Frances Cady Reading - "By Courier" - Frances Sickler "Recreation in the Home" Miss Luella McAllister A "Dumb Play" - A Lighthouse Tragedy A "Stunt" - Gervis Hoover The guests came to the party attired as children, and refreshments in keeping with the idea of the evening were served. The members of the Club intend to give a play some time this spring. We are sure that they will make as great a success of this as they have of everything else that they undertake. They are an enterprising group, and since they are the only Freshman Club in high school, they hold a unique place in our organizations. Le Cercle Francais [photo] OFFICERS President - ALTA SHIMER Vice President - VIVIAN WEIGHAMAN Secretary and Treasurer - ADALINE HOFFMAN Chairman Program Committee - CLARA GRAZIER Faculty Advisor - MISS LOVELASS The French Club (LE CERCLE FRANCAIS) In an effort to further the study of the French language, a French Club was formed on November 3, 1924, by the second year French Class. To speak things French, to do things French; in general, to be French as nearly as an American can be, was the idea the club wished to carry out at its meetings. The first thing done was to elect officers. Those who are guiding the club through its stormy first year are: President - ALTA SHINIER Vice President - VIVIAN WEIGHAMAN Secretary and Treasurer - ADALINE HOFFMAN Chairman Program Committee - CLARA GRAZIER Miss Lovelass acts as the advisor of the club and to her it owes the success of everything it has undertaken. The club is very grateful to her for her splendid help. It was decided that no first year French students should be taken in until they had completed at least a half year of French; however, as this copy goes to press no action has been taken in connection with the admission of members other than the original Seniors. The members of the club realize that only through speaking and hearing French can they attain the highest degree of perfection. For this reason the program committee takes great care in selecting programs that the members, at the present, are able to handle and understand. Speeches, readings, and games in French, as well as solos and songs by the entire club, are a few of the things that have made the club meetings entertaining and at the same time beneficial. It is the sincere hope of the club that the work it has started, will be carried on from year to year by the French classes who follow them.

ATHLETICS Football [photo] About September 1st a call for football material was sent throughout the high school. About thirty-five men came out for practice. Coach "Buck" Skean divided these men into teams and hard practice followed. Eleven letter men were back but some of these were scrubs on last year's team. The team lost Benford, Thomas F. Stonebraker, Woodring and Waite. However, their places were ably filled by other men. The team practiced from the close of school till dark and stuck to it. "Buck" gave the men a slogan which was: "A Team That Won't Be Beaten, Can't Be Beaten." The men used this slogan and it worked wonders on them. The team won nine games, tied one, and lost none. It was truly a championship year. The football season opened on September 27th, the opponent being Saxton High, the place at home. Saxton lost to the tune of 69-0. Tyrone scored almost at will upon their lighter opponents. Ammerman was the star of the game, getting over half of the touchdowns. At least two touchdowns were made in every period. The next game of the season was played with Lewistown at Tyrone. Tyrone was defeated last year by Lewistown by a 21-13 score. Tyrone got revenge this year by handing them a 12-0 defeat. The game was mostly fought in the center of the field but Tyrone, by clever forward passing, succeeded in scoring two touchdowns. Ammerman again starred. The third game was played at home with Philipsburg the victims. Last year Philipsburg held Tyrone to a 21-21 tie. This year Tyrone won from them to the tune of 33-7. Philipsburgs' lone tally came when a forward pass was intercepted and a Philipsburg man ran 90 yards for a touchdown. The next game was also played at home with Mifflintown High. Mifflintown came over with a good reputation. having won all of their games played up to that time. Tyrone sent them back with the short end of a 55-0 score. Ammerman again did some brilliant playing. Tyrone journeyed to Roaring Springs on October 25th and crushed the Springs boys under a 61-0 score. Although Tyrone was outweighed both in the line and backfield, Roaring Springs did not know football as Tyrone did. Every man in the backfield scored touchdowns. Ammerman led with 36 points. Thompson was next with 12. On November 1st Huntingdon, our old rival, came to Tyrone. The game was scheduled for 3:00 but due to a delay at the "Y" the game did not start until 3:30. The game started off with a rush, Tyrone receiving the ball, and, by straight football, marched right down the field for a touchdown, Ammerman carrying the ball over and kicking the extra point. Huntingdon held the rest of the first and also the second period. At the start of the second half the game was fought out in midfield but at the beginning of the last period Tyrone took the ball and with Hessler's line plunging finally arrived near enough to the goal line to have Ammerman take the ball over. Final score was 14-0. On November 8th, State College High football team came to Tyrone expecting to take home the bacon. They went home on the small end of a 7-6 score. If it had not been for Ammerman's educated toe, the score would have been 6-6. The first quarter was a punting duel between State College and Tyrone, Ammerman having the edge on State. During the second quarter Tyrone broke loose and Ammerman carried the ball over for 6 points. He kicked the extra point; score 7-0, Tyrone. During the third quarter State came back and got a touchdown but failed to kick the extra point, due to nice blocking by Stonebraker, our guard. Score 7-6, Tyrone. So it stood at the end of the game. State College last year won from us by a 21-0 score. This shows that Tyrone has improved. November 15th, Tyrone went to Altoona where they were held to a 6-6 tie score. Tyrone outplayed Altoona in all points of the game and if it had not been for penalties which amounted to 120 yards, Tyrone would have won. The game started with a bang. Altoona received but fumbled, Tyrone recovering on Altoona's 30 yard line. On the next play the diminuative Charlie "Peewee" Ginter took the ball over for six points. Ammerman's kick was blocked. Altoona with straight football coupled with penalties against Tyrone took the ball over. It was at this point that Stonebraker probably saved the day as he blocked their kick. Score 6-6. In the third quarter Ammerman tried two field goals but they both failed. In the fourth quarter Tyrone marched steadily down the field until they reached the 35 yard mark. Ginter received the ball and was over the goal line but was recalled as the referee accused Stonebraker of slugging, which Tarzan declared was false. Tarzan was put out of the game and the team penalized 45 yards. Tyrone was again making a determined march down the field when the whistle blew thus ending a 6-6 tie. November 22nd. Juniata came to Tyrone. The Tyrone scrubs were out in to start the game. Owing to a fumble Juniata made a touchdown. The varsity was then put in and before the end of the game Tyrone had piled up 74 points. Score, Juniata 6, Tyrone 74. November 27th, commonly known as Turkey Day, the Tyrone team motored to Hollidaysburg where they downed Hollidaysburg by the score of 20-0. Tyrone early in the second period and again later went over for a touchdown. The extra point was added both times. In the last period by hitting off-tackle Tyrone went over again. Ammerman was the star, scoring the entire 20 points. Thus ended the most successful season Tyrone had ever had in football. Tyrone is again tied with Altoona for the Blair County Championship. Ammerman is the leading point scorer in Pennsylvania, making 210 points. The team is ranked as the fourth highest scoring team in the State and Tyrone thinks it is the best of all teams. Too much credit can't be given to "Buck" Skean. Tyrone will lose Wagner, Wooden, Ginter, Shollenberger and Davis by graduation this year.

The coach dwindled these down to about fifteen men and then worked hard, handicapped as he was, with only two nights of practice a week, to turn out a good basketball team. The season was opened at home with Reade Hi. Tyrone won 65-10. Wooden was high scorer and star of the evening. The team was composed of Wooden, Smith, Stonebraker (Capt.), Ammerman, and Epstein. The second game was with the Alumni and the Alumni even with the help of "Heine" Stewart, and "Murph" Candy had to dip their colors to the Hi varsity. The score was 33-21. Smith was high scorer with Ammerman and Giles tied for second place on the varsity. "Heinie" as usual, led the Alumni. Tyrone High won the third straight victory when they downed State College High by a 35-13 score. Tyrone was in no danger at any time but it was a fine, clear game of basketball. On January 10th, Altoona humbled Tyrone by giving us a 33-10 defeat. The floor was about twice as big as ours and Tyrone could not get their defense working. A fair crowd of rooters accompanied the team. January 11th, Tyrone won from Renova at home by a score of 33-24. It was a very fast and exciting game and well played. Tyrone was too much for Renova, however. Tyrone journeyed to Jersey Shore on January 23 and in a rough, but exciting game of basketball, Tyrone emerged the victor. Ammerman saved the score from being a tie by a field goal in the last minute. Score 29-27. Westmont came to Tyrone on January 24th and were defeated 47-29. The game was poorly attended but well played, Tyrone showing lots of pep at all times. Tyrone again lost to Altoona in a hard fought battle. Tyrone and Altoona were evenly matched and the score was tied many times. Tyrone was leading 20-19 when with about thirty seconds to play. Beach dropped in a basket, putting Altoona ahead, 21 -20. Tyrone was without the services of Ammerman, as he had left school to go to a New York Military Academy. Epstein was also out, so it was no disgrace to be beaten. Tyrone went to Du Bois on February 13th and lost by a 35-17 score. The game was hard fought but Du Bois clearly outplayed Tyrone. On February 13th, Jersey Shore came to Tyrone and were defeated to the tune of 21-14. It was a cleanly fought and hard played game. Epstein got back in the game and helped the Orange and Black to win. The result was in doubt until the final few minutes when Tyrone dropped in three field goals in rapid succession. On Saturday, February 14th, Tyrone again met Du Bois but at home. The game needed an extra period to decide it. The score was tied 25-25 at the end of the game. Tyrone then run the score up 28-25 but Du Bois broke loose and won 30-28. Wimber came to Tyrone on February 20th and lost by a 26-18 score. The game was very clean. Wimber was leading at half time but Tyrone came back in the second half and won. February 28th, Tyrone went to Lewistown without the services of "Abie" Smith. They lost 18-33. Lewistown promised Tyrone a return game as we did not have them on our schedule. We were again defeated at Wimber. The team played hard but were unable to overcome them. The game was clean and well fought. Tyrone showed a better brand of basket ball than Wimber but was not able to pierce the loop. March 7th, we were picked along with seven other teams to be in the P. I. A. A. eliminations. We drew Lock Haven to play at Bellefonte. Tyrone went by auto to Bellefonte on Wednesday, March 11. The game looked easy for us as we had five points before Lock Haven got started but after that we were nothing. They had three men who just leaped up and dropped in the ball. We were defeated by a 39-18 score. However, we did our best and played cleanly. Lock Haven won the P. I. A. A. eliminations, beating Altoona in the finals. March 14th, we went to Renova where we were again defeated. They had improved greatly since we won from them earlier in the season, and the floor was not as good as our own. However, the team fought hard, going down to defeat before a team which was better than they were. The last game of the season was played on March 20th with Lewistown. "Abie" Smith was back and celebrated by getting eight points. Berkstresser tied with him while Epstein took honors with eleven points. Tyrone outplayed Lewistown and won by superior skill. This ended the season for Tyrone High School. Out of 17 games played 9 were won and 8 lost. Tyrone was not in the Mountain League this year; but played Lewistown, who won in it, and beat them once. This shows that if we had been in it we would have been high in the standing, if not first. The team will lose Wooden, center, and Berkstresser, forward, by graduation. We wish for a successful season in 1926. SCORES T.H.S.

SKEAN [photo] "Buck" Skean, through his untiring efforts as coach, has brought us through the most successful year in football that Tyrone has ever known. DRAMATICS [photo] THE ADMIRABLE CRICHTON On the evenings of January 30th and 3 I st the Senior play, "The Admirable Crichton," was very successfully presented in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium. The play was excellently given and the manner in which it was presented reflected much credit on Miss Bayle's training of the characters. Miss Bayle is especially deserving of praise because this play was such a departure from the Senior plays which have heretofore been given. The play opened with Lord Loam, a peer of advanced ideas, giving a tea to his servants in the drawing room of his home. Lord Loam believes that all men are equal and in order to carry out his theory he gives a tea to his servants once a month. We are introduced during this act to Mary, Catherine and Agatha Lassenby, Lord Loam's daughters; Ernest, his nephew; Lord Brocklehurst, who is engaged to Mary Treherne; a clergyman; Crichton and Tweeny, butler and between maid; and the other domestics. The second act takes place on a desert isle where the yachting party of Lord Loam, consisting of Ernest, Treherne, Mary, Catherine, Agatha, Crichton, and Tweeny have been shipwrecked. They believe Lord Loam to be dead, but during the act he comes upon their party. Nature selects Crichton as their leader, but Lord Loam tries to assert himself. They finally give in and Crichton becomes their natural head. The third act, two years later, shows us the party in their island home. They have many modern conveniences which the genius and skill of Crichton have evolved. By this time Crichton is ruling like a king over his subjects. In a very passionate scene he tells Mary that he loves her and asks her to be his wife. She consents, and as soon as a bridal skirt can be prepared, they are to be married. They are rejoicing over the announcement when they hear a ship's gun, but it seems too late; the boat which the ship sent to the island, apparently for water, is going back. Crichton, realizing all that it would mean if they were saved, and torn between his desire and his belief in playing the game, ignites the signal fires and the boat turns back to the island. Lord Loam again assumes leadership and Crichton shows his return to servitude in his obsequious bow to Lady Mary as the curtain falls on the most touching scene of the play. In the fourth act we see Lord Loam and his daughters in their home. They are reading newspaper comments on the book Mr. Wooley has written about their adventures. Ernest, we find from their reading, was the hero on the island. It was HE who saved the ladies from the tigers, killed wild beasts and so on. The ladies are surprised, but they let it go, for it would not do to let anyone in England know that Crichton was their head or even on the same level with them, while they were on the island. Mary, ashamed to make her confession of her affair with Crichton on the island, asks her father to tell Brocklehurst. Her father is also ashamed of it and does not tell Lord Brocklehurst. Lord Brocklehurst comes to see Mary, and she, believing that he knows of her affair, is not surprised when he starts to make explanations. It turns out, however, that during the two years that Mary has been away Brocklehurst has had an affair with Fisher, Mary's maid. Mary, hearing this does not tell him of her own lapse and so Brocklehurst is none the wiser. Lady Brocklehurst is then announced and she starts to question George, her son, about Lady Mary's actions when he had told her of his affair. He tells his mother that Mary took it very well. At this time Agatha, Catherine, and Treherne come in and Lady Brocklehurst also questions them about the island. Ernest arrives and she continues her questioning. Lady Brocklehurst has sent for Crichton and Tweeny. The family is very much worried that Crichton or Tweeny may say something which will reveal Crichton's leadership on the island. Crichton answers her questions in such a way that Lady Brocklehurst learns nothing of their life on their island. The play ends with Lady Mary telling Crichton that he was the best man among them and begging him not to pity her weakness in leaving him for one of her own class. The costumes of the ladies were very beautiful and those used in the second and third acts very appropriate. The scenery also was extraordinarily good, especially the scene used in the second act. In that act one saw, in the background, the ocean; before the ocean, the trees; and in the foreground, a camp fire built of logs. It was hard to believe that this was not a true isle. Taken altogether it could plainly be seen that it was arranged by one who had much experience in putting on high school plays. The play was very profitable to the class, for after paying all expenses, a profit of about $300 was left. The money was transferred to the treasury of the "Falcon" and it has gone into the presentation of this class annual. All the future graduating classes will look up to the play "The Admirable Crichton" as a standard for the production of their Senior plays. It is impossible to give the acting honors to any one person. All of them perfectly fitted their parts. It has been said that it was the best cast play ever given here. NORMAN HAZEL, '25.

Roger's production given by the High School this year was even a greater success than those presented heretofore. Mr. and Mrs. I. Merle Ward were the efficient directors and as a result of their combined efforts, the leads and chorus groups attained a professional ease. The scenery and costumes this year were much more elaborate than in past years. There were four different drops used and many variations of lighting. The stage furnishings were rich and tasteful. They were obtained through the kindness of Mr. Templeton and other Tyrone merchants. The scene of the first act was the home of Sir Newton Wickham, Long Island. In this act, the character of Sir Newton, a nervous English gentleman, was well portrayed by Gilbert Smith. His haughty American wife, enacted by Sara Swartz, and a clever maid role carried by Frances Gordon, were highly pleasing to the audience. The title role "Fleurette" was splendidly taken by Margaret Benson, and her fiance, Arthur Ferner, a young lawyer, drew the sympathy of the audience, because Sir Newton's brother-in-law (Dick Hamer) concocted a plan by which he hoped to cure the spoiled wife of Sir Newton of her indifference. The plot was: Fleurette should pretend to the Englishman that she was much in love with him. Being thus flattered, of course he lost his head and began to pay marked attentions to her. The bribe by which "Fleurette" was lured from her loyalty to the young lawyer was the stock broker's promise of a position on the stage to fulfill her greatest ambition. Humerous situations develop soon and Dick is in despair as his plan has worked too well. However, all ends well in the third act when Lady Anastasia discovers that her brother had laid the plans to cure her of her ungracious manner. So she gives her latest flame, David Dillingham (Eugene Johnson) to his little actress "Billy" (Peg Miller in real life), and declares her love for Sir Newton again. Fleurette had, in the meantime, been found by an eccentric but rich uncle Pierre Du Prey, most dramatically reproduced by John Elliot Davis. As riches are now Fleurette's, the poor young attorney also gains happiness and his cottage for two. The play is enriched throughout the three acts by many charming musical numbers. In Act I we see first a striking group of girls in lovely afternoon dresses and hats who try to prove by song and dance that "It's the Hat, Not the Girl." Next we have a group of Fleurette's admirers who sing and dance with her. The closing scene in which Dick and Fleurette sing of their cottage of dreams is prettily encored by the two with a group of dainty little "Carpenterettes" who sing and furnish the cottage lights with electric torches. Act II is introduced by the "Frolic Ensemble" which tells us of the ensuing numbers which are extracts from the "Frolics" in which Fleurete is starring, First we see the peppy octette, led by "Billy." They bid us "Dance Away the Blues" and they suit the words of "Billy" and the Ensembles' song to the action and fling their heels at care. The great Fleurette sang a Chinese song next while a picturesque group of Chinamen danced. "The Snow-flake Ballet" closing the act. This was perhaps the most elaborate scene of the play. As Jack Frost (Ward Myers) sings of the snow and ice and sports of winter they appear and dance. At the conclusion of the number there has been formed a gorgeous pageant in silver and blue and white. Perhaps the most touching bit of the story is found near the beginning of the third act when "Dick" accuses "Fleurette" of a breach of faith and refuses to listen to her explanation. She then sings "Poor Painted Rose" in so pathetic a manner that the lawyer sees the injustice he has done, and they are reconciled before her party begins. The party proves to be a very lively affair on the Roof Garden of the Ambassador Hotel and this event furnishes two most delightful specialties, the one, an "Eccentric Dance" by Marlin Stewart and Harry Miller, and the other, one of Sara Taylor's professional and far-famed toe dances. The play is brought to the usual conclusion with a very spirited "Grand Finale." Much credit is due these others, aside from the cast and the able directors: Frances Walton, the accompanist throughout rehearsals and presentations; the High School Orchestra with its additions; Miss Bayle and Miss Zimmers for their splendid choice of talent; Edward Kelly, general chairman of committees: William Gunter, ticket manager; Janet Smith for her work as publicity and property manager; and the program committee, Margaret Woodring and Charles Ginter.
