The commencement address on Tuesday, May 24, was made by Dr. William
M. Denison, Deputy Superintendent of
Public Instruction at Harrisburg. Dr.
Denison is at the head of the Bureau
of School Administration in the state organization of the Department of Public
Instruction. He is also secretary of the
committee on t h e Recodification of

Training School
Remains Open
Until May 27th
Contrary to usual custom, the College
Training School will not close this year
with the end of the College session. The
state ruling requiring a minimum of sessions makes it necessary for the Training
School to remain open until May 27, The
regular supervisors, in most instances,
and a few of the student teachers have
volunteered to carry on t h e work during
this extra week.
One half sessions, each morning except
Tuesday, will enable the Training School
to fulflll all requirements.
The Junior High School closing exercise and annual picnic scheduled for last
Friday have also been postponed until
May 27, due to the lengthened school
term.
On Thursday evening. May 19, a cast
of twelve under the competent and imaginative direction of Miss Mabel-Louise
Arey, presented the Junior Class Play,
"Old Days in Dixie." This very mellow
melodrama from the pen of Walter Ben
Hare was acted in modern costume
against a setting that was a composite of
the Southern parlors that were so dear
to the pre-bellum South. This play with
its long, flowery speeches, hysterical histrionics, and acting that was intensely
serious became in the hands of the capable cast a vehicle that gave true pleasure
to the audience.
In order of their appearance, the cast
was composed of the following people:
Shad, a colored servant, who never
forgets that "all us Bonfoey's is high and
mighty," was admirably played by Walter Wilkinson, who showed a distinct
flair for comedy and character delineation.
Judge Pennymint. a central flgure of
the play, brother of Mme. Bonfoey and
ardent suitor of a neighboring damsel,
found in the person of Thomas Blyler, a
competent and interesting portrayer.
As Cameo Clemm, gambler and person of notoriety, Elwood Rohrbaugh was
appropriately wily and impudent in a
role that called for these qualities.
Raoul Chaudet, villain and trickster,
was enacted splendidly by H, L. Sykes in
a manner that pointed out t h e "opera
buffe" quaUties of such a role—insolence, treachery, and craftiness.
In the person of Beryl Dewalt, Nancy,
a charming little minx, and a delight to
eye and ear, was by turns charmingly
coy and more charmingly petulant.

Dr. Armstrong addressed t h e Alumni
Association at its banquet in t h e College
Dining Room at six o'clock, on Saturday
evening. May 21.
After extending cordial greetings and
welcome to the returning Alumni and
other College friends and congratulating
the new members of t h e Alumni Association, that is the Senior Class of 1932, he
stated that all would be interested in t h e
fact that after many years t h e old Lusk
Run Road was being relocated taking it
out of the CoUege grounds altogether.
This will remove much danger by eliminating public traffic through the College
grounds also making it possible to proceed with the construction program of
the College with regard to its Athletic
Field and Play Grounds and building t h e
additional units to the new Training
School building. He also stated that t h e
bids for the reconstruction of t h e kitchen, dining room, and bakery would be
opened on May 25. This project will
probably cost about fifty-five thousand
dollars. In addition to this there is being
spent in improvements on t h e grounds
almost six thousands dollars this spring,

to all," continued Dr, Armstrong, is that

During t h e past year the A r t Club
members enlarged their organization.
All students displaying talent in their
art classes received bids to join. The
club was very successful in carrying out
its new plan for its meetings. Instead of
formal business gatherings, they had lessons in appreciation and application of
art. The adviser, Miss DuBois, taught
them many practical things, such as tie
dyeing, working with leather, and m a k ing of invitations. The club also sponsored art exhibitions for the public. The
organization offered many educational
and cultural values to its members.
Dramatics
The Dramatic Club was enlarged this
year so as to give more talented people
a chance to become members.

The Annual Convention of the Association for Childhood Education met
in Washington, D. C , May 4-7. P r o m i nent educators were present and m a n y
worth-while speeches given.
Dr. William H. Kilpatrick, Professor
of t h e Philosophy of Education at Teachers CoUege, Columbia University, N. Y.,
spoke Friday evening. May 6, in the Memorial Continental Hall before the Annual Convention of the A. C, E, upon
"Education and the International Mind."
The leading thought of this address was
that there is no such thing as mind, b u t
only different ways of behavior. Dr.
Kilpatrick substantiated this statement
by showing how the getting of meanings
and putting to work these meanings is
really the basis of what we call mind.
Through communication, we m a k e use
of other people's meanings. In concluding his address, Dr, Kilpatrick said that
anyone could build a mind on any subject if he cares about it and sticks long
enough.
Joy Elmer Morgan, the Editor of t h e
National Education Association, Washington, D. C , spoke on the same evening as Dr, Kilpatrick on the subject of
"The Satisfaction of Mankind." In his
speech, Mr. Morgan touched upon one
of t h e causes of our present economical
condition. We are too materialistic; in
the struggle for money and material
values, the cultural beneflts are forgotten. The home is just as m u c h a profession as any business. T h e average
American parents should consider it as
such. The greatest problem of education today as expressed by Mr. Morgan
is leisure time both forced and enforced.
This interesting address was brought to
a close with the thought of organizing
an Industrial Democracy similar to our
Political Democracy.
Other speakers of the conference included: Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Department of Interior;
Julia Wade Abbot, President of the National Association for Childhood Education; Patty Smith Hill, Kindergarten
instructor of Columbia, and Dr, George
Stoddard, President of the National Association of Nursery Education,

English Instructor Dies
Following Operation
Miss Pearl Alma Payne, a member of
t h e faculty of Lock Haven State Teachers College, died at the Lock Haven
Hospital on Friday, May 13, 1932, of complications following a n operation for
appendicitis performed a week before.
She is survived by five sisters and
t h r e e brothers. Miss Payne came here
from Greensboro, North Carolina, where
she was a teacher in t h e North Carolina
College for Women. She was a graduate of the State Normal School at Farmville, Virginia, and held bachelor's and
master's degrees from Columbia University.
Miss Payne was extremely popular
among her colleagues of t h e faculty and
among the students. During t h e past
year Miss Payne was a speaker at a
number of teachers' institutes, in Elk
County and other nearby sections. Miss
Payne's appearances before t h e entire
student body in chapel exercises will be
especiaUy remembered. Her reading of
some of the Uncle Remus stories, in
negro dialect, was particularly enjoyable.
The body of Miss P a y n e was sent to
her home in Charlottesville, Virginia,
w h e r e funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon, May 15.
MISS PEARL A. PAYNE
Un jiBlemortam
A perfect woman, nobly planned
To warm, to comfort, and command;
And yet a spirit still, and bright
With something of an angel light.
HE faculty of the State Teachers College unanimously adopted, in a regular
meeting, the following statement in regard to the death of Pearl A. Payne, of
T
the Department of English and Education:
In the death of Pearl Payne the State Teachers College has lost for its students
an unusual teacher. It is fairly easy to be a well-prepared and conscientious
teacher; it is not impossible, by taking thought, to be an interesting or even stimulating teacher. But when these qualities are combined and to them a r e added
humor and charm and imagination one flnds a r a r e teacher. Miss P a y n e needed
less than a school year in Lock Haven to establish herself as such a teacher and
personality.
The faculty of the State Teachers College has suffered a professional loss. Intelligence tempered her educational philosophy; generosity mellowed her judgments; understanding salted her wisdom. She h a d security in learning, without
vanity; and her concern for the education of others was matched only by the
vigor and delight with which she came up to h e r teaching every day. No professional group could have contained her without admiration for her skill and
pride in her possession.
Students and faculty and friends are her mourners. There is sorrow for her
dignity and activity and grace which were lost too soon to them, but there is joy
in remembering her one brief year. When Mr. Valiant-for-truth crossed the
river, John Bunyan tells us, "many accompanied him to the river side, into which,
as he went, he said, 'Death, where is thy sting?' And as he went down deeper,
he said, 'Grave, where is thy victory?' So he passed over, and the trumpets
sounded for him on t h e other side." And like t h e many friends who accompanied
Mr, Valiant-for-truth, those friends of Pearl P a y n e flnd that to them who shall
succeed her she has left her sword; to those that can get it, her courage and skill;
and to them all the sound of blowing trumpets.

and since only half of the Pennsylvania
State Teachers CoUeges have as good a
rating as this it is something for the Lock
Haven Alumni to be proud of.
"There a r e 198 students in t h e graduating class this year. This includes those
students who flnished their work at the
end of the flrst semester and those who
will finish it at the end of the Summer
Term. Of this number there are twentysix who h a v e or will have completed
their work for their Bachelor Degrees.
This brings our total number of Alumni
up to almost six thousand, located
throughout all Pennsylvania and in fact
throughout all the world. You also may
be interested in knowing that ninetyeight per cent of our 1930 class secured
positions, eighty per cent of our last
year's class secured positions and already this year more than flfty per cent
of our graduates have positions for next
year, "This is encouraging, indeed, under
the present economic conditions and as
soon as the economic depression is over
no doubt one hundred per cent of the
people that may be graduated from our
College may b e able to secure positions.
There has always been a supply of teachers that are certified to teach school but
there has never been an over supply of
good, first-class teachers. Another encouraging thing at this time is that there
are about thirty of the students in this
graduating class who have completed the
two years' work and will receive their
Normal School Certificates who will r e t u r n t o complete their four-years' work

"I saw a quotation in one of the Colleges I visited recently as follows: 'Say

The Music Department, directed by
Miss Lottie Larabee and Mr, George F.
Lehman, deserves much credit for its
splendid response to our need for appropriate music for the activities of Senior
Week and for Commencement exercises.
The College orchestra began its work
on Thursday, May 19, when it played for
the annual Junior Class Play, It also
played for the Alumni Banquet on Saturday, May 21. At the Baccalaureate
Services on Sunday morning, beside selections by the orchestra the Vesper
Trio, composed of Caroline Raker, F r a n ces Wenrich, and Ellen Louise Rooke,
sang "Peace" by Roberts-Ryder, the Vesper Choir sang "Benediction" by Hamlen, and a mixed chorus sang "Send Out
Thy Light," by Gounod. Sunday evening at the Vesper Service the music
consisted of selections by the Vesper
Trio, the Vesper Quartette, composed of
Hazel Fouse, Viola Fouse, Evelyn Livingston, and Nellie Manning, and a solo,
"The Penitent," by Vande Water, which
was sung by Mr. James Harlan.
The orchestra played at Class Day exercises on Monday morning, and accompanied Miss Ruth Harpster when she
sang "Trees" during the planting of the
tree on Monday afternoon.
At t h e Commencement exercises,
Tuesday morning, the "Recessional,"
"Processional," and "Venetian Love
Dance," by Rich were the orchestra's offerings, A mixed chorus closed the program with "The Heavens Resound," by
Beethoven.

Vesper Service of Year
The Vesper Service Sunday evening
was given over to the Senior (^lass. The
splendid program consisted largely of Senior contributions. The speakers of the
evening, the President of t h e Y. W. C.
A,, Miss Noel, and the Senior representative of the Y. M, C, A., Mr, Biddle,
gave very interesting talks on what their
college life has meant to them.
The speeial music directed by Miss
Lottie Larabee was greatly enjoyed by
the many parents and their friends that
attended Senior evening.

Training School Pupil
Dies
Virginia Schaffer, daughter of Mr, and
Mrs. H a r r y Schaffer, and a pupil in t h e
sixth grade of the Training School, died
on Sunday, May 15, at the Lock Haven
Hospital. Her death was due to spinal
meningitis which developed from a cold
and sinus trouble. Virginia, who was a
bright and promising child, was well acquainted with many of the college students.
The Alumni Day of Lock Haven State
Teachers College was held on Saturday,
May 21. Dr. D. W. Thomas, president
of the Alumni organization, was in
charge of the program for the afternoon,
and the election of officers. Invitations
were issued to sixteen h u n d r e d alumni
by the secretary, Mrs. C. C. Donahue.
Special reunions of the classes of 1882,
1887, 1892, 1897, 1902, 1907, 1912, 1917,
1922, and 1927 were held throughout the
afternoon; officers for the coming year
were elected later in the afternoon.
In the college dining room, a banquet
was served to the alumni of the college
and to the graduating class at 5:45
o'clock. A reception and dance in the
gymanisum followed the banquet. The
reception committee consisted of Dr.
Dallas Armstrong, President of the College, Mr. M. DeTurk High, Dean of Instruction; Dr. D. W. Thomas and Donald
P. Rice and Miss Martha B. Zeigler,
Senior Class representatives.
The afternoon session included, besides the regular business meeting, a
musical program directed by Mr. George
F. B. Lehman with Mrs. P. R. Kamp,
'20, accompanist. Many of the former
graduates gave short talks; among these
was a delightful talk by William P. Cornely, of Madera, one of t h e Vice Presidents of the organization.
Former Student Places
In National Contest
Francis Coughlin, a student in the
Lock Haven State Teachers College last
year, recently has been notified that an
essay he submitted several months ago
in a national contest sponsored by the
George Washington Bicentennial Committee, has won second prize in a fleld
of two h u n d r e d and fifty contestants.
This announcement was made in the
New York American and also in the
Williamsport Gazette and Bulletin.
The essay contest was open to high
school and college students who wrote
on the subject of Washington's Farewell
Address.
First prize, a gold cup and $100, was
awarded to Howard Elliott, a post graduate of the Theodore Roosevelt High
School.
Mr. Coughlin won a gold medal as second prize. Coughlin was a graduate in
the class of 1927 from the Williamsport
High School, and last year persued a
course of study in this college.

May 23, w e r e centered about activities
that were especially significant to this
year's Senior Class. The morning was
devoted to a tree planting exercise in
which the class set up a marker for t h e
class tree as a memorial to their activities here. At ten o'clock Monday morning, the class marched in solemn procession from the College Auditorium to t h e
East Campus near the president's residence, placed the marker, and returned
singing the Alma Mater, Hugh Fry, the
class vice president, gave an address of
welcome, and Myron Biddle dedicated
the tree.
The dramatization of the afternoon
was unique in the respect that it incorporated into one single unit all the traditional class day offerings. A group of
student teachers assembled at the home
of Miss Shapen, their supervisor, played
by Dorothy Bickel, in the year 1957, and
proceeded to arrange for a correlated
activity program about the glory of t h e
class that graduated from the Lock Haven State Teachers College in 1932.
Gwendolyn Stringfellow, as Miss Snoop,
the history teacher, read the class history; Elizabeth Crain, as Miss Meter, t h e
poetry teacher, presented t h e class poem,
Olive Pelton, as Miss Chroma, the art
teacher, illustrated by means of silhouettes, the class limericks. Other teachers, including the two music teachers.
Miss Flat and Miss Key, played by Marguerite Bovard and Hildegarde Baer, a
geography teacher. Miss Alta Tude,
played by J a n e Rathgeber, Albert Sundberg as Mr, Volt, t h e science teacher,
Sebastian Grieco as Dr. Longworth, the
English teacher, and Myron Biddle, as an
intermediate teacher, furnished interesting dialogue about the succeses of his
class in 1957—a class prophecy in reality.
Interesting musical selections were interpolated throughout. Ambrose Fortney directed a rhythm band which
played an old French rondo, "Amaryllis," and the well-known lyric, "School
Days." Margaret Miller, Olive Hoover,
Barbara Rhoads, Audrey Finn, Mirabelle
Eliason, and Mildred Carbaugh played
in this band. The theme song of the
operetta "Pepita" was sung by a quartet of girls, consisting of Dorothy Cunningham, Alma Soyster, Martha McDowell, and Helen Johnson, At the end
of the chorus the audience joined in
singing this popular melody. Marguerite Bovard and Hildegarde Baer sang a
duet, "Oh Swallow Swift." J a n e McGirk played a violin solo, "The Old Refrain," Accompanists for these musical
selections were Betty DeFrehn, Gwendolyn Radebach, and James Harlan,
At the conclusion of the whole program Margaret Dorries directed t h e
class in the singing of the class song,
written by Margaret Dorries and Betty

The program was arranged for by a
committee including Olive Livingston, as
chairman; Dorothy Bickel, Kathleen

Feit.

"Always I have felt that the destinies
of America have rested largely with the
public school. I am more convinced of
that fact as the years go on. I believe
those things that w e want to appear in

in the public school today. That was
never truer than it is today. The world
is unsettled, has been breaking away
from the 'land marks' of our fathers and
trying this expedient and that expedient
that most frequently are poorly thought
out hoping by these expedients to again
stabilize world conditions. These conditions will not be stabilized until the
leaders of thought and action in this
country and among the chief of these
leaders as I have already stated is the
public school teacher who is able to lead
the people back into sanity of thinking
and living. There are too many people
that have thought that we can disobey
the laws of our country, tear up t h e Constitution of our nation, with impunity
violate all of t h e ten commandments,
even forget God and then hope to prosper. It is a responsibility of the Alumni
of this College as public school teachers
and as men and women not only in their
actual teaching in the class but in their
daily lives to prove that the laws of our
nation must be obeyed, the constitution
respected, the ten Commandments observed and God duly reverenced. When
the world can come back to these fundamental principles, then the conditions
which we all desire will exist again.
"We believe that the men and women
who graduated from this institution will
help in t h e effort for a return of these
desired conditions and each of you may
rest assured that this College through its
Faculty and Trustees will do everything
in its power to hasten the return of these
days,"
Annual Music Recital
Proves Great Success
The annual pupil recital was given in
the auditorium on Friday evening before
a full house. The recital, which was exceptionally good, was under the direction of Miss Larabee and Mr. Lehman.
The piano and voice solos were given
by the pupils who are paying for individual instruction, while the remaining
numbers w e r e presented by the musical organizations of the college. Both
the solos and group presentations were
excellent and worthy of praise.
The vesper trio has been organized for
only six months and the quartet for even
a shorter period. Both groups will r e main intact for next year. The choir is
also a comparatively new organization,
having been formed only last year with
but one member appearing for the first
practice.
All the presentations, including piano
solos by Elizabeth Bigelow, Lenore Morgan, Mary Ulmer, and John Miller; voice
solos by Anthony Ryan, Lenore Morgan;
and voice ensembles by the Vesper
Quartette, Vesper Trio, Vesper Choir,
and College Glee Club, provided an evening of flne musical entertainment.

Books you can read, and will read this
summer, if you are wise:
The Flowering Stone . . . by George
Dillon.
This is one of the Pulitzer prize books,
speciflcally the prize book of poetry. Of
the four or five volumes which received
consideration, Mr, Dillon's verse seemed
the most original and authentic. Dillon
is also t h e author of "Boy in the Wind,"
Of Thee I Sing . , , by George S. Kaufman, Morrie, Ryskind, and Ira Gershwin,
The Pulitzer prize for drama was
awarded to this current musical comedy,
to the surprise of many who thought that
"Mourning Becomes Electra" or "Distant
Drums" and other plays of this caliber
deserved t h e award. The Pulitzer Prize
Committee in its citation says: "This
award may seem unusual but t h e play is
unusual. It is a biting satire on American poUtics and the attitude toward
them. T h e spirit and style of the play
are topical and popular, but of course t h e
work is all the more spontaneous for
that, and has a freshness and vitality
which a r e both unusual and incomparable,"
Theodore Roosevelt , , , by Henry F,
Pringle,
This is the Pulitzer biography book, a
truly vitalized portrait of an outstanding
American. It is very human in point of
view and is undoubtedly a contribution
to American letters as well as a distinct
aid in the historical survey of American
progress.
The Roof . . . by John Galsworthy.
This is t h e latest play from the pen of
this eminent English writer. It is an attempt to view the happenings in an old
and very intimate English hotel between
midnight and one o'clock of a summer
night. T h e play is divided into six
scenes, a climax occurring when a flre of
rnysterlous origin breaks out. As is the
case with all Galsworthy plays, t h e
drawing of the characters is superior to
t h e plot of the play, but it is unusually
good reading.
And just by way of mention, we might
recommend (with the aid of the critics
who k n o w ) the following:
Conquistador , , , A narrative poem
dealing with the conquest of Mexico
and vouched for by Stephen Benet,
Three Loves . . . A, J, Cronin's successor to "Hatter's Castle" and said to be
every bit as good.
Limits and Renewals . . . A collection
of poems, stories and sketches by none
other t h a n Rudyard Kipling, who still
holds his own admirably.
Amber Satyr . . . One of those first
novels that do more than show promise. This one is about a bronze giant
who carries his own destiny in his

Training School Holds
Colorful Spring Festival
In College Gymnasium
On May 13, at three o'clock in the gymnasium of the College, the Training
School Spring Festival was given under
the supervision of Miss Maloise Dixon of
the Physical Edueation Department.
Following is the theme of the Spring
Festival:
To the little cinder maid comes a
dream of prancing fairy horses with
their pumpkin equipage, and a touch of
her godmother's wand, Cinderella is clad
in a diapanous frock and shining slippers, to grace the prince's ball until the
witching hour of twelve.
Throughout the land the flare of t r u m pets hails the approach of royal heralds,
following the meager clue of a single
shining slipper. In the market place, as
villagers dance about a ribbon-decked
pole, and sing their homage to the coming of t h e May; beside the winding
stream whither the womenfolk trudge to
wash their linen to snowy whiteness b e neath a kindly sun; at the village school,
where a demure mistress watches her
lasses and lads at their merry play in
that fleeting moment before the clanging
bell shall summon them to more drudging tasks; among the rollicking gypsies,
while children laugh and caper and the
jingle of tambourines pulses through a
lively dance—everywhere they seek, and
yet their search seems all in vain. Nor
can Cinderella's haughty sisters add
aught to its success.
But when the little maid of the cinders
shyly proffers her foot, all at once t h e
quest is ended; it is none other than Cinderella whose modest charm is indeed
that of the lost princess, and the prince
comes with joy to claim the hand of t h e
loveliest maid in all his kingdom,
On Thursday evening. May 5, at 6:00
p. m., the local nine made it four in a
row by taking the Winner Weiners to
the t u n e of 8 to 3. The visitors are a
highly touted aggregation and close
competition was expected throughout
the game, but from the flrst to the last
the Kaiserites were masters of the situation. They failed to make a run only in
the fifth inning.
Though the game was only a six inning affair the locals made enough hits
to put the game on the ice. The locals
had seven extra base hits to the single
one of the visitors.
Long, who began the game, pitched
nice ball for three innings. He didn't
give t h e visitors a single hit. Wolfe, who
relieved him, allowed but three hits.
The game scheduled for last Saturday
at Rockview was called off because of
wet grounds.

And Track Squads
On Saturday, May 12, the L. H. S. T. C.
Receive Letter Awards
Women's Athletic Association held its
annual Play Day in t h e gymnasium.
Representatives from the Mill Hall, J e r sey Shore, Altoona, and Lock Haven
High Schools registered in t h e gymnasium at 1:30 where Margaret Gardiner,
President of the Women's Athletic Association, was in charge. • Lodging for
the representatives was provided by
Ann Oven. Margaret Dorries, as activities chairman, placed the entrants in
four groups, each of which had its own
color. The groups were m a d e up of representatives from each school so that
the winners were on the basis of groups
rather than schools.
Baseball, volleyball, and track, including running, broad-jumping, and high
jumping, m a d e up the list of competitive events. The treasure hunt which
followed took the participants around
the college grounds. The treasure, a
small tennis racket, was found by Ann
Seminitis.
A picnic lunch, prepared by the W,
A. A. members, was served in the gymnasium, after which the participants
danced. About twenty-five students represented the four schools.
Lock Haven Overwhelms
Mansfield, Score, 15-13
The regular Monday morning chapel
on May 9th was an especially interesting one to a great number of the students who have participated in school
athletics in the past. Letters were
awarded b y Dr, Armstrong to the lettermen in football, basketball and track.
The highlight of t h e chapel program
was the award of a letter to F. E. Ritter, who has been a sincere and devoting
sports fan. The school owes him a great
deal of credit for the interest he has
taken in school sports for the past flfteen
years.
Another interesting fact is that this is
the first year track letters have been
awarded in t h e history of the college.
Five letters were awarded to those men
in the school who have earned at least
five points in a track meet.
The program was further enhanced
by the presence of Dr. Armstrong, Coach
Kaiser, F, E, Ritter, Mr. Sullivan, and
"Whitey" Lawrence on the stage. Coach
Kaiser mentioned the fact that almost
every boy of the one hundred and fifty
in the school had participated in some
sport, such as football, intra-mural and
varsity basketball, baseball, and track.
Dr. Armstrong presented the letters to
Mr. Ritter and the boys.

By winning last Tuesday afternoon
from t h e strong Mansfleld nine, the Lock
Haven Teachers baseball team was able
to m a k e it a perfect season, without a
single setback. This fine record is certainly a good start in a new athletic field
for the College.
Hits and r u n s were plentiful as the box
score will indicate. Katchik and Snare
were the big stickmen for the day. The
only three-bagger was credited to McLean.
The game was a tie affair most of the
way. At the beginning of the lucky seventh the score stood 7-7. The locals came
through with seven runs to apparently
cinch the game, but Mansfleld came back
with plenty of fight to earn six runs and
make the score 14-13. However they
were unable to earn another run in the
flnal frame, so that the flnal score stood
at 15-13 for t h e local nine.

membership was opened to all who had
studied French in high school.
A series of educational reports about
the history of the French Language,
French writers, and French literature
were given.
The members learned
French songs and began the dramatization of t h e play "The Buff." Records
were purchased to aid them in their mastery of the language.
Y. M. C. A.
During t h e past year the Y. M. C. A.
has carried out projects in their program
such as The Y. M. C. A. Welcome Party,
sponsoring delegations to intercollegiate
conferences, and the securing of speakers at their regular weekly meetings and
for t h e campus as a whole. Probably
the high spot of the year in the work of
the Y. M. C, A, is marked by the visitation of "Dad" Elliott to our Campus.
The Y has also undertaken to provide a
weekly program of devotions to the men
of the college. In these meetings outside
speakers w e r e secured, and group discussions w e r e formed.
The Y. M. C. A. has sent a total of
eleven men to intercollegiate conferences this year, and expect to send a representative t o the annual summer conference to be held in June.
Y. W. C. A.
On Wednesday evening. May 11, the Y.
W. C. A. closed a most successful year
with an indoor picnic in the College
Gymnasium. A resume of the year's
work reveals many worthwhile things
done by the various committees. The
meetings committee provided programs
including interesting talks by faculty
members. Miss Lillian RusseU, Dr. F r a n ces Coppens, and Miss Bertha Daniel, a
program by former Girl Reserves presenting worthwhile standards for every
girl; and various music selections.
The Social Service Committee saw to
it that every child at t h e Children's
Home had a happy Christmas and heard
stories every Sunday afternoon. The
magazine chairman furnished current
magazines for the girls. At the first of
the year, t h e Big Sister Movement helped
the new girls orient themselves to College life.
The fun affairs included a Blimp Tea,
a Valentine Tea, a Pajama Party, and
an Informal Picnic,
This year the Y. W, C, A. of our college was represented at the Eleventh
Quadrennial Convention of the Student
Volunteer Movement for the flrst time in
history. Delegates will b e sent to the
Summer Conference of t h e Y. W. C. A.
to be held at Camp Whelan, New Jersey,
on J u n e 9-19.

Training School
Remains Open
Until May 27th
Contrary to usual custom, the College
Training School will not close this year
with the end of the College session. The
state ruling requiring a minimum of sessions makes it necessary for the Training
School to remain open until May 27, The
regular supervisors, in most instances,
and a few of the student teachers have
volunteered to carry on t h e work during
this extra week.
One half sessions, each morning except
Tuesday, will enable the Training School
to fulflll all requirements.
The Junior High School closing exercise and annual picnic scheduled for last
Friday have also been postponed until
May 27, due to the lengthened school
term.
On Thursday evening. May 19, a cast
of twelve under the competent and imaginative direction of Miss Mabel-Louise
Arey, presented the Junior Class Play,
"Old Days in Dixie." This very mellow
melodrama from the pen of Walter Ben
Hare was acted in modern costume
against a setting that was a composite of
the Southern parlors that were so dear
to the pre-bellum South. This play with
its long, flowery speeches, hysterical histrionics, and acting that was intensely
serious became in the hands of the capable cast a vehicle that gave true pleasure
to the audience.
In order of their appearance, the cast
was composed of the following people:
Shad, a colored servant, who never
forgets that "all us Bonfoey's is high and
mighty," was admirably played by Walter Wilkinson, who showed a distinct
flair for comedy and character delineation.
Judge Pennymint. a central flgure of
the play, brother of Mme. Bonfoey and
ardent suitor of a neighboring damsel,
found in the person of Thomas Blyler, a
competent and interesting portrayer.
As Cameo Clemm, gambler and person of notoriety, Elwood Rohrbaugh was
appropriately wily and impudent in a
role that called for these qualities.
Raoul Chaudet, villain and trickster,
was enacted splendidly by H, L. Sykes in
a manner that pointed out t h e "opera
buffe" quaUties of such a role—insolence, treachery, and craftiness.
In the person of Beryl Dewalt, Nancy,
a charming little minx, and a delight to
eye and ear, was by turns charmingly
coy and more charmingly petulant.
(Continued on page 5)
Dr. Armstrong addressed t h e Alumni
Association at its banquet in t h e College
Dining Room at six o'clock, on Saturday
evening. May 21.
After extending cordial greetings and
welcome to the returning Alumni and
other College friends and congratulating
the new members of t h e Alumni Association, that is the Senior Class of 1932, he
stated that all would be interested in t h e
fact that after many years t h e old Lusk
Run Road was being relocated taking it
out of the CoUege grounds altogether.
This will remove much danger by eliminating public traffic through the College
grounds also making it possible to proceed with the construction program of
the College with regard to its Athletic
Field and Play Grounds and building t h e
additional units to the new Training
School building. He also stated that t h e
bids for the reconstruction of t h e kitchen, dining room, and bakery would be
opened on May 25. This project will
probably cost about fifty-five thousand
dollars. In addition to this there is being
spent in improvements on t h e grounds
almost six thousands dollars this spring,

The Annual Convention of the Association for Childhood Education met
in Washington, D. C , May 4-7. P r o m i nent educators were present and m a n y
worth-while speeches given.
Dr. William H. Kilpatrick, Professor
of t h e Philosophy of Education at Teachers CoUege, Columbia University, N. Y.,
spoke Friday evening. May 6, in the Memorial Continental Hall before the Annual Convention of the A. C, E, upon
"Education and the International Mind."
The leading thought of this address was
that there is no such thing as mind, b u t
only different ways of behavior. Dr.
Kilpatrick substantiated this statement
by showing how the getting of meanings
and putting to work these meanings is
really the basis of what we call mind.
Through communication, we m a k e use
of other people's meanings. In concluding his address, Dr, Kilpatrick said that
anyone could build a mind on any subject if he cares about it and sticks long
enough.
Joy Elmer Morgan, the Editor of t h e
National Education Association, Washington, D. C , spoke on the same evening as Dr, Kilpatrick on the subject of
"The Satisfaction of Mankind." In his
speech, Mr. Morgan touched upon one
of t h e causes of our present economical
condition. We are too materialistic; in
the struggle for money and material
values, the cultural beneflts are forgotten. The home is just as m u c h a profession as any business. T h e average
American parents should consider it as
such. The greatest problem of education today as expressed by Mr. Morgan
is leisure time both forced and enforced.
This interesting address was brought to
a close with the thought of organizing
an Industrial Democracy similar to our
Political Democracy.
Other speakers of the conference included: Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Department of Interior;
Julia Wade Abbot, President of the National Association for Childhood Education; Patty Smith Hill, Kindergarten

English Instructor Dies
Following Operation
Miss Pearl Alma Payne, a member of
t h e faculty of Lock Haven State Teachers College, died at the Lock Haven
Hospital on Friday, May 13, 1932, of complications following a n operation for
appendicitis performed a week before.
She is survived by five sisters and
t h r e e brothers. Miss Payne came here
from Greensboro, North Carolina, where
she was a teacher in t h e North Carolina
College for Women. She was a graduate of the State Normal School at Farmville, Virginia, and held bachelor's and
master's degrees from Columbia University.
Miss Payne was extremely popular
among her colleagues of t h e faculty and
among the students. During t h e past
year Miss Payne was a speaker at a
number of teachers' institutes, in Elk
County and other nearby sections. Miss
Payne's appearances before t h e entire
student body in chapel exercises will be
especiaUy remembered. Her reading of
some of the Uncle Remus stories, in
negro dialect, was particularly enjoyable.
The body of Miss P a y n e was sent to
her home in Charlottesville, Virginia,
w h e r e funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon, May 15.
MISS PEARL A. PAYNE
Un jiBlemortam
A perfect woman, nobly planned
To warm, to comfort, and command;
And yet a spirit still, and bright
With something of an angel light.
HE faculty of the State Teachers College unanimously adopted, in a regular
meeting, the following statement in regard to the death of Pearl A. Payne, of
T
the Department of English and Education:
In the death of Pearl Payne the State Teachers College has lost for its students
an unusual teacher. It is fairly easy to be a well-prepared and conscientious
teacher; it is not impossible, by taking thought, to be an interesting or even stimulating teacher. But when these qualities are combined and to them a r e added
humor and charm and imagination one flnds a r a r e teacher. Miss P a y n e needed
less than a school year in Lock Haven to establish herself as such a teacher and
personality.
The faculty of the State Teachers College has suffered a professional loss. Intelligence tempered her educational philosophy; generosity mellowed her judgments; understanding salted her wisdom. She h a d security in learning, without
vanity; and her concern for the education of others was matched only by the
vigor and delight with which she came up to h e r teaching every day. No professional group could have contained her without admiration for her skill and
pride in her possession.
Students and faculty and friends are her mourners. There is sorrow for her
dignity and activity and grace which were lost too soon to them, but there is joy
in remembering her one brief year. When Mr. Valiant-for-truth crossed the
river, John Bunyan tells us, "many accompanied him to the river side, into which,
as he went, he said, 'Death, where is thy sting?' And as he went down deeper,
he said, 'Grave, where is thy victory?' So he passed over, and the trumpets
sounded for him on t h e other side." And like t h e many friends who accompanied
Mr, Valiant-for-truth, those friends of Pearl P a y n e flnd that to them who shall
succeed her she has left her sword; to those that can get it, her courage and skill;
and to them all the sound of blowing trumpets.
Faculty Vacations

and since only half of the Pennsylvania

Haven Alumni to be proud of.
"There a r e 198 students in t h e graduating class this year. This includes those
students who flnished their work at the
end of the flrst semester and those who
will finish it at the end of the Summer
Term. Of this number there are twentysix who h a v e or will have completed
their work for their Bachelor Degrees.
This brings our total number of Alumni
up to almost six thousand, located
throughout all Pennsylvania and in fact
throughout all the world. You also may
be interested in knowing that ninetyeight per cent of our 1930 class secured
positions, eighty per cent of our last
year's class secured positions and already this year more than flfty per cent
of our graduates have positions for next
year, "This is encouraging, indeed, under
the present economic conditions and as
soon as the economic depression is over
no doubt one hundred per cent of the
people that may be graduated from our
College may b e able to secure positions.
There has always been a supply of teachers that are certified to teach school but
there has never been an over supply of
good, first-class teachers. Another encouraging thing at this time is that there
are about thirty of the students in this
graduating class who have completed the
two years' work and will receive their
Normal School Certificates who will r e t u r n t o complete their four-years' work
if t h e y cannot flnd satisfactory positions

students themselves, it may be even fort u n a t e if they do not secure positions this

The Music Department, directed by
Miss Lottie Larabee and Mr, George F.
Lehman, deserves much credit for its
splendid response to our need for appropriate music for the activities of Senior
Week and for Commencement exercises.
The College orchestra began its work
on Thursday, May 19, when it played for
the annual Junior Class Play, It also
played for the Alumni Banquet on Saturday, May 21. At the Baccalaureate
Services on Sunday morning, beside selections by the orchestra the Vesper
Trio, composed of Caroline Raker, F r a n ces Wenrich, and Ellen Louise Rooke,
sang "Peace" by Roberts-Ryder, the Vesper Choir sang "Benediction" by Hamlen, and a mixed chorus sang "Send Out
Thy Light," by Gounod. Sunday evening at the Vesper Service the music
consisted of selections by the Vesper
Trio, the Vesper Quartette, composed of
Hazel Fouse, Viola Fouse, Evelyn Livingston, and Nellie Manning, and a solo,
"The Penitent," by Vande Water, which
was sung by Mr. James Harlan.
The orchestra played at Class Day exercises on Monday morning, and accompanied Miss Ruth Harpster when she
sang "Trees" during the planting of the
tree on Monday afternoon.
At t h e Commencement exercises,
Tuesday morning, the "Recessional,"
"Processional," and "Venetian Love
Dance," by Rich were the orchestra's offerings, A mixed chorus closed the program with "The Heavens Resound," by
Beethoven.

The Vesper Service Sunday evening
was given over to the Senior (^lass. The
splendid program consisted largely of Senior contributions. The speakers of the
evening, the President of t h e Y. W. C.

gave very interesting talks on what their
college life has meant to them.
The speeial music directed by Miss

Training School Pupil
Dies
Virginia Schaffer, daughter of Mr, and
Mrs. H a r r y Schaffer, and a pupil in t h e
sixth grade of the Training School, died
on Sunday, May 15, at the Lock Haven
Hospital. Her death was due to spinal
meningitis which developed from a cold
and sinus trouble. Virginia, who was a
bright and promising child, was well acquainted with many of the college students.
The Alumni Day of Lock Haven State
Teachers College was held on Saturday,
May 21. Dr. D. W. Thomas, president
of the Alumni organization, was in
charge of the program for the afternoon,
and the election of officers. Invitations
were issued to sixteen h u n d r e d alumni
by the secretary, Mrs. C. C. Donahue.
Special reunions of the classes of 1882,
1887, 1892, 1897, 1902, 1907, 1912, 1917,
1922, and 1927 were held throughout the
afternoon; officers for the coming year
were elected later in the afternoon.
In the college dining room, a banquet
was served to the alumni of the college
and to the graduating class at 5:45
o'clock. A reception and dance in the
gymanisum followed the banquet. The
reception committee consisted of Dr.
Dallas Armstrong, President of the College, Mr. M. DeTurk High, Dean of Instruction; Dr. D. W. Thomas and Donald
P. Rice and Miss Martha B. Zeigler,
Senior Class representatives.
The afternoon session included, besides the regular business meeting, a
musical program directed by Mr. George
F. B. Lehman with Mrs. P. R. Kamp,
'20, accompanist. Many of the former
graduates gave short talks; among these
was a delightful talk by William P. Cornely, of Madera, one of t h e Vice Presidents of the organization.
Former Student Places
In National Contest
Francis Coughlin, a student in the
Lock Haven State Teachers College last
year, recently has been notified that an
essay he submitted several months ago
in a national contest sponsored by the
George Washington Bicentennial Committee, has won second prize in a fleld
of two h u n d r e d and fifty contestants.
This announcement was made in the
New York American and also in the
Williamsport Gazette and Bulletin.
The essay contest was open to high
school and college students who wrote
on the subject of Washington's Farewell
Address.
First prize, a gold cup and $100, was
awarded to Howard Elliott, a post graduate of the Theodore Roosevelt High
School.
Mr. Coughlin won a gold medal as second prize. Coughlin was a graduate in
the class of 1927 from the Williamsport
High School, and last year persued a
course of study in this college.

May 23, w e r e centered about activities
that were especially significant to this
year's Senior Class. The morning was
devoted to a tree planting exercise in
which the class set up a marker for t h e
class tree as a memorial to their activities here. At ten o'clock Monday morning, the class marched in solemn procession from the College Auditorium to t h e
East Campus near the president's residence, placed the marker, and returned
singing the Alma Mater, Hugh Fry, the
class vice president, gave an address of
welcome, and Myron Biddle dedicated
the tree.
The dramatization of the afternoon
was unique in the respect that it incorporated into one single unit all the traditional class day offerings. A group of
student teachers assembled at the home
of Miss Shapen, their supervisor, played
by Dorothy Bickel, in the year 1957, and
proceeded to arrange for a correlated
activity program about the glory of t h e
class that graduated from the Lock Haven State Teachers College in 1932.
Gwendolyn Stringfellow, as Miss Snoop,
the history teacher, read the class history; Elizabeth Crain, as Miss Meter, t h e
poetry teacher, presented t h e class poem,
Olive Pelton, as Miss Chroma, the art
teacher, illustrated by means of silhouettes, the class limericks. Other teachers, including the two music teachers.
Miss Flat and Miss Key, played by Marguerite Bovard and Hildegarde Baer, a
geography teacher. Miss Alta Tude,
played by J a n e Rathgeber, Albert Sundberg as Mr, Volt, t h e science teacher,
Sebastian Grieco as Dr. Longworth, the
English teacher, and Myron Biddle, as an
intermediate teacher, furnished interesting dialogue about the succeses of his
class in 1957—a class prophecy in reality.
Interesting musical selections were interpolated throughout. Ambrose Fortney directed a rhythm band which
played an old French rondo, "Amaryllis," and the well-known lyric, "School
Days." Margaret Miller, Olive Hoover,
Barbara Rhoads, Audrey Finn, Mirabelle
Eliason, and Mildred Carbaugh played
in this band. The theme song of the
operetta "Pepita" was sung by a quartet of girls, consisting of Dorothy Cunningham, Alma Soyster, Martha McDowell, and Helen Johnson, At the end
of the chorus the audience joined in
singing this popular melody. Marguerite Bovard and Hildegarde Baer sang a
duet, "Oh Swallow Swift." J a n e McGirk played a violin solo, "The Old Refrain," Accompanists for these musical
selections were Betty DeFrehn, Gwendolyn Radebach, and James Harlan,
At the conclusion of the whole program Margaret Dorries directed t h e
class in the singing of the class song,
written by Margaret Dorries and Betty

The program was arranged for by a
committee including Olive Livingston, as
chairman; Dorothy Bickel, Kathleen

"Always I have felt that the destinies
of America have rested largely with the
public school. I am more convinced of
that fact as the years go on. I believe
those things that w e want to appear in
American lives tomorrow we must put
in the public school today. That was
never truer than it is today. The world
is unsettled, has been breaking away
from the 'land marks' of our fathers and
trying this expedient and that expedient
that most frequently are poorly thought
out hoping by these expedients to again
stabilize world conditions. These conditions will not be stabilized until the
leaders of thought and action in this
country and among the chief of these
leaders as I have already stated is the
public school teacher who is able to lead
the people back into sanity of thinking
and living. There are too many people
that have thought that we can disobey
the laws of our country, tear up t h e Constitution of our nation, with impunity
violate all of t h e ten commandments,
even forget God and then hope to prosper. It is a responsibility of the Alumni
of this College as public school teachers
and as men and women not only in their
actual teaching in the class but in their
daily lives to prove that the laws of our
nation must be obeyed, the constitution
respected, the ten Commandments observed and God duly reverenced. When
the world can come back to these fundamental principles, then the conditions
which we all desire will exist again.
"We believe that the men and women
who graduated from this institution will
help in t h e effort for a return of these
desired conditions and each of you may
rest assured that this College through its
Faculty and Trustees will do everything
in its power to hasten the return of these
days,"
Annual Music Recital
Proves Great Success
The annual pupil recital was given in
the auditorium on Friday evening before
a full house. The recital, which was exceptionally good, was under the direction of Miss Larabee and Mr. Lehman.
The piano and voice solos were given
by the pupils who are paying for individual instruction, while the remaining
numbers w e r e presented by the musical organizations of the college. Both
the solos and group presentations were
excellent and worthy of praise.
The vesper trio has been organized for
only six months and the quartet for even
a shorter period. Both groups will r e main intact for next year. The choir is
also a comparatively new organization,
having been formed only last year with
but one member appearing for the first
practice.
All the presentations, including piano
solos by Elizabeth Bigelow, Lenore Morgan, Mary Ulmer, and John Miller; voice
solos by Anthony Ryan, Lenore Morgan;
and voice ensembles by the Vesper
Quartette, Vesper Trio, Vesper Choir,
and College Glee Club, provided an evening of flne musical entertainment.

TIMES
Books you can read, and will read this
summer, if you are wise:
The Flowering Stone . . . by George
Dillon.
This is one of the Pulitzer prize books,
speciflcally the prize book of poetry. Of
the four or five volumes which received
consideration, Mr, Dillon's verse seemed
the most original and authentic. Dillon
is also t h e author of "Boy in the Wind,"
Of Thee I Sing . , , by George S. Kaufman, Morrie, Ryskind, and Ira Gershwin,
The Pulitzer prize for drama was
awarded to this current musical comedy,
to the surprise of many who thought that
"Mourning Becomes Electra" or "Distant
Drums" and other plays of this caliber
deserved t h e award. The Pulitzer Prize
Committee in its citation says: "This
award may seem unusual but t h e play is
unusual. It is a biting satire on American poUtics and the attitude toward
them. T h e spirit and style of the play
are topical and popular, but of course t h e
work is all the more spontaneous for
that, and has a freshness and vitality
which a r e both unusual and incomparable,"
Theodore Roosevelt , , , by Henry F,
Pringle,
This is the Pulitzer biography book, a
truly vitalized portrait of an outstanding
American. It is very human in point of
view and is undoubtedly a contribution
to American letters as well as a distinct
aid in the historical survey of American
progress.
The Roof . . . by John Galsworthy.
This is t h e latest play from the pen of
this eminent English writer. It is an attempt to view the happenings in an old
and very intimate English hotel between
midnight and one o'clock of a summer
night. T h e play is divided into six
scenes, a climax occurring when a flre of
rnysterlous origin breaks out. As is the
case with all Galsworthy plays, t h e
drawing of the characters is superior to
t h e plot of the play, but it is unusually
good reading.
And just by way of mention, we might
recommend (with the aid of the critics
who k n o w ) the following:
Conquistador , , , A narrative poem
dealing with the conquest of Mexico
and vouched for by Stephen Benet,
Three Loves . . . A, J, Cronin's successor to "Hatter's Castle" and said to be
every bit as good.
Limits and Renewals . . . A collection
of poems, stories and sketches by none
other t h a n Rudyard Kipling, who still
holds his own admirably.
Amber Satyr . . . One of those first
novels that do more than show promise. This one is about a bronze giant
who carries his own destiny in his
clenched fists. The author is Roy
Flannagan,

illustrated documentation of the reactions experienced by a scientist in his

Training School Holds
Colorful Spring Festival
In College Gymnasium
On May 13, at three o'clock in the gymnasium of the College, the Training
School Spring Festival was given under
the supervision of Miss Maloise Dixon of
the Physical Edueation Department.
Following is the theme of the Spring
Festival:
To the little cinder maid comes a
dream of prancing fairy horses with
their pumpkin equipage, and a touch of
her godmother's wand, Cinderella is clad
in a diapanous frock and shining slippers, to grace the prince's ball until the
witching hour of twelve.
Throughout the land the flare of t r u m pets hails the approach of royal heralds,
following the meager clue of a single
shining slipper. In the market place, as
villagers dance about a ribbon-decked
pole, and sing their homage to the coming of t h e May; beside the winding
stream whither the womenfolk trudge to
wash their linen to snowy whiteness b e neath a kindly sun; at the village school,
where a demure mistress watches her
lasses and lads at their merry play in
that fleeting moment before the clanging
bell shall summon them to more drudging tasks; among the rollicking gypsies,
while children laugh and caper and the
jingle of tambourines pulses through a
lively dance—everywhere they seek, and
yet their search seems all in vain. Nor
can Cinderella's haughty sisters add
aught to its success.
But when the little maid of the cinders
shyly proffers her foot, all at once t h e
quest is ended; it is none other than Cinderella whose modest charm is indeed
that of the lost princess, and the prince
comes with joy to claim the hand of t h e
loveliest maid in all his kingdom,
On Thursday evening. May 5, at 6:00
p. m., the local nine made it four in a
row by taking the Winner Weiners to
the t u n e of 8 to 3. The visitors are a
highly touted aggregation and close
competition was expected throughout
the game, but from the flrst to the last
the Kaiserites were masters of the situation. They failed to make a run only in
the fifth inning.
Though the game was only a six inning affair the locals made enough hits
to put the game on the ice. The locals
had seven extra base hits to the single
one of the visitors.
Long, who began the game, pitched
nice ball for three innings. He didn't
give t h e visitors a single hit. Wolfe, who
relieved him, allowed but three hits.
The game scheduled for last Saturday
at Rockview was called off because of
wet grounds.

On Saturday, May 12, the L. H. S. T. C.
Receive Letter Awards
Women's Athletic Association held its
annual Play Day in t h e gymnasium.
Representatives from the Mill Hall, J e r sey Shore, Altoona, and Lock Haven
High Schools registered in t h e gymnasium at 1:30 where Margaret Gardiner,
President of the Women's Athletic Association, was in charge. • Lodging for
the representatives was provided by
Ann Oven. Margaret Dorries, as activities chairman, placed the entrants in
four groups, each of which had its own
color. The groups were m a d e up of representatives from each school so that
the winners were on the basis of groups
rather than schools.
Baseball, volleyball, and track, including running, broad-jumping, and high
jumping, m a d e up the list of competitive events. The treasure hunt which
followed took the participants around
the college grounds. The treasure, a
small tennis racket, was found by Ann
Seminitis.
A picnic lunch, prepared by the W,
A. A. members, was served in the gymnasium, after which the participants
danced. About twenty-five students represented the four schools.
Lock Haven Overwhelms
Mansfield, Score, 15-13
The regular Monday morning chapel
on May 9th was an especially interesting one to a great number of the students who have participated in school
athletics in the past. Letters were
awarded b y Dr, Armstrong to the lettermen in football, basketball and track.
The highlight of t h e chapel program
was the award of a letter to F. E. Ritter, who has been a sincere and devoting
sports fan. The school owes him a great
deal of credit for the interest he has
taken in school sports for the past flfteen
years.
Another interesting fact is that this is
the first year track letters have been
awarded in t h e history of the college.
Five letters were awarded to those men
in the school who have earned at least
five points in a track meet.
The program was further enhanced
by the presence of Dr. Armstrong, Coach
Kaiser, F, E, Ritter, Mr. Sullivan, and
"Whitey" Lawrence on the stage. Coach
Kaiser mentioned the fact that almost
every boy of the one hundred and fifty
in the school had participated in some
sport, such as football, intra-mural and
varsity basketball, baseball, and track.
Dr. Armstrong presented the letters to
Mr. Ritter and the boys.

By winning last Tuesday afternoon
from t h e strong Mansfleld nine, the Lock
Haven Teachers baseball team was able
to m a k e it a perfect season, without a
single setback. This fine record is certainly a good start in a new athletic field
for the College.
Hits and r u n s were plentiful as the box
score will indicate. Katchik and Snare
were the big stickmen for the day. The
only three-bagger was credited to McLean.
The game was a tie affair most of the
way. At the beginning of the lucky seventh the score stood 7-7. The locals came
through with seven runs to apparently
cinch the game, but Mansfleld came back
with plenty of fight to earn six runs and
make the score 14-13. However they
were unable to earn another run in the
flnal frame, so that the flnal score stood
at 15-13 for t h e local nine.

During t h e past year the Y. M. C. A.
has carried out projects in their program
such as The Y. M. C. A. Welcome Party,
sponsoring delegations to intercollegiate
conferences, and the securing of speakers at their regular weekly meetings and
for t h e campus as a whole. Probably
the high spot of the year in the work of
the Y. M. C, A, is marked by the visitation of "Dad" Elliott to our Campus.
The Y has also undertaken to provide a
weekly program of devotions to the men
of the college. In these meetings outside
speakers w e r e secured, and group discussions w e r e formed.
The Y. M. C. A. has sent a total of
eleven men to intercollegiate conferences this year, and expect to send a representative t o the annual summer conference to be held in June.
Y. W. C. A.
On Wednesday evening. May 11, the Y.
W. C. A. closed a most successful year
with an indoor picnic in the College
Gymnasium. A resume of the year's
work reveals many worthwhile things
done by the various committees. The
meetings committee provided programs
including interesting talks by faculty
members. Miss Lillian RusseU, Dr. F r a n ces Coppens, and Miss Bertha Daniel, a
program by former Girl Reserves presenting worthwhile standards for every
girl; and various music selections.
The Social Service Committee saw to
it that every child at t h e Children's
Home had a happy Christmas and heard
stories every Sunday afternoon. The
magazine chairman furnished current
magazines for the girls. At the first of
the year, t h e Big Sister Movement helped
the new girls orient themselves to College life.
The fun affairs included a Blimp Tea,
a Valentine Tea, a Pajama Party, and
an Informal Picnic,
This year the Y. W, C, A. of our college was represented at the Eleventh
Quadrennial Convention of the Student
Volunteer Movement for the flrst time in
history. Delegates will b e sent to the
Summer Conference of t h e Y. W. C. A.
to be held at Camp Whelan, New Jersey,
on J u n e 9-19.
