THE SUMMER SCHOOL
The Summer School is a success. All the rooms in Haven Hall
were reserved before the students arrived. Girls have been rooming on
the first floor of Reeder Hall. The enrollment is over one hundred and
sixty. Nearly every student registered on the opening day and all got
promptly to work. The school never had a more earnest group of
students.
The student body is largely composed of those preparing for
teachers’ examinations for provisional, professional, or permanent
certificates. Not a few students are planning to return this fall or
later to take the regular Normal course.
E, S. N. S SUMMER TERM, 1919

EDINBORO QUARTERLY
The majority of the faculty are members of the regular faculty.
Miss Hussey of Ashtabula has done valuable 'work in the department of
drawing. The six superintendents who on successive weeks have con
ducted the work in Principles of Education and in the required books
on Pedagogy have been a source of inspiration and of broadening out
look. Several evening lectures given by these men and open to the
public have been much enjoyed. The superintendents are H. 0. Dietrich
of Kane, I. H. Russell of Erie County, Edward Sargent of Meadville,
Dallas W. Armstrong of Venango County^ P. D. Blair of Crawford
County, and H. E. McConnell of Mercer County.
In so brief a term a large amount of social activity could hardly
be planned or executed. There have been many informal picnics or out
ings in small groups.
Two large affairs-have included the whole
school. At the end of the third week of the term a dance was given in
the gymnasium and simultaneously a party in Haven Hall, that the so
cial tastes of all might be satisfied. Many students attended both
gatherings. The faculty isi now planning a school picnic for the end of
the fifth week.
The closing days of the term will be given to examinations for
certificates. Arrangements have been made so that most of these
examinations take place at the Edlnboro Normal School.
A BETTER CAMPUS^
“This campus grows more beautiful every year!” Thus spoktj^^i
returning alumnus at commencement. We overheard him.
This beauty is obtained by the care of the present campus and
careful planting for the future. The campus was treated with lime
in the spring. Men have spent many hours removing dandelions from
the lawn. A new lawn-mower with gasoline motor cuts' the grass neatly
and quickly. The hedge of 'California privet bordering the walk to
Reeder Hall was carefully protected for the winter and in the spring
the barberry hedge was extended to the south boundary of the campus.
Extensive planting at considerable outlay of money was done
this spring. Among the shrubs and flowers planted were several
varieties of roses, spirea, japonica, honeysuckle, clematis, peonies,
and phlox.
The seniors at their Arbor Day exercises planted three white
birch trees near the northwest corner of Reeder Hall.
Several flower beds, the product of private initiative, are adding
greatly to the beauty of the campus. Pansies and sweet peas have
been most plentiful.
The appearance of the campus was greatly improved last fall
by the removal of two frame buildings no longer usable. South Hall
and Science Hall. 'Grading is now being done on these sites.

Electric light poles covered with climbing vines are ornaments to
the campus. The tennis courts have several beautiful rambler roses.
The Edinboro Normal School cares as much about the appearance
of its rear campus as it does for that open to the public view. Clematis
is now growing at the rear entrance of Reeder Hall, and by the plant
ing of shrubs, vines, and flowers a beginning has been made toward
making the court between the wings of Haven Hall an attractive place.
,
The present generation of Edinboro students is fortunate in the
heritage of many trees of noble height and spacious shade. Not to care
for and improve the campus would be treachery to the past.
SPRING TERM ATHLETICS
A small number of boys cannot support both track athletics and
base ball. Therefore the boys of E. S. N. S. this spring after careful
consideration chose track athletics. The Normal’s first interscholastic
track meet was with the National Polish Alliance College of Cam
bridge Springs. The score was 58-32 in favor of Edinboro.
Another event of great interest was the inter-class track meet.
The seniors won from the underclassmen andi the High School by
the following score: Seniors, 55 1-2 points; Underclassmen, 28 1-2
points; High School, 52 points. The High School would have taken

the meet if the Seniors had given them the least chance. It was neces
sary to run three heats for E. Blystone and A. Blystone to decide
first and second place in the hurdles. Several records of last year
were equaled or broken. The meet consisted of the following events:
100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard dash, 880 yard run, mile run,
120 yard hurdle, shot put, discus, javelin, broad jump, running high
jump, pole vault, relay.
Arthur Lewis T9 won the annual pentathlon by taking two first
places, one second, one fourth and one fifth. The following events were
chosen by the contestants on the day of the meet: lOOyard dash, shot
put, broad jump, discus throw, and one half mile. The place a man
made in the meet scored that many points against him. The final
scores against each man were as follows: Lewis 13; Hopkins 19;
Mallory 21; Harvey 24; Klrschner 24; E. Blystone 24; A. Blystone 25;
Morgan 32. A gold medal was awarded for first place, a silver medal
for second place, and three bronze medals for third, fourth and fifth
place. Harvey, manager of the track team, resigned his claim to a
medal, there being a tie of three men for the fourth place. The meet
was hotly contested all the way, the winner being in doubt until the
last event. Hopkins and Lewis were tied with 11 points each at the
beginning of the half mile.
Normal School Track Record
It IS always interesting to know the best that a school has yet
done in track athletics. In the following summary Howard, Lingo,
and Henry are alumni of the class of 1918; the others are this year’s
contestants. Will another year make the record better?

THE PLAY
“Days in Sherwoodi” was the title of the commencement play
which portrayed the daring feats of Robin Hood and his Merry Men.
The outlaw being in love with a royal ward. Lady Marion de Baux, was
a source of interesting complications. The two leading parts were well
taken by Hugh Buchanan and Gertrude McGraw. The cast included
over thirty actors. Dialog, singing, and fairy dances combined to make
e

the play.
The fairies dancing under coiored iights were most beau
tiful. The performance was fittingly given outdoors, the shrubs and
trees south of Recitation Hali contributing forest scenery. This made
a beautiful setting and the acting was spirited and appropriate. The
temporarily constructed out-door auditorium was filled to its capacity.
ALUMNI INTERESTS
The Almuni have various ways of showing their interest in the
school. One is by bringing together on Alumni Day the iargest crowd
of commencement week. At the annuai Aiumni meeting a fine ioyalty
to the school was voiced both in the speeches of individuals and in
the resolutions adopted by the association.
The Alumni dinner taxed the capacity of the new dining haii. Mr.
Jerome Rusterhoitz, the retiring president, was toastmaster. The alum
ni who responded to toasts were Mr. A. A. Culbertson, ’93; Mr. Earl
D. Bruner, ’01; Mr. Neil Matthews, ’15, the new president; and Miss
Eiizaheth Firth, president of the graduating class. The Alumni heard
with much pleasure a newly appointed trustee. Turner W. Shacklett,
Esq. of Erie. The concluding speech was made by Principal Prank E.
Baker. The cumulative effect of all the speeches was to make one
realize how much a school may mean in the lives of its students,.

One very practical way in which the Alumni help the school is
by contributions to the Alumni Loan Fund. A small loan without in
terest is often a necessary aid to a worthy student.

VOCATIONAL WORK
The Edlnboro High School will offer vocational courses this fall.
Its affiliation of severai years with the Normal School will be strength
ened. The courses in Home^Making and Agriculture will be
he given in the Normal buildings. N7 will be used as a class room.
The new Agriculture laboratory will be used; Manual Training will
given in the basement of Reeder Hall and Home Making in the
Domestic Science laboratory. Considerable new equipment will be
added for this work.
REPAIRS
A special appropriation of $5000 for necessary repairs has sim
plified a perplexing problem. Much electric wiring of recitation rooms
was already being done, the rooms on the second floor of Reeder Hall
were to be redecorated, and arrangements have been made to paint
Recitation Hall brick red with white woodwork. Now it will be possi
ble to redecorate the auditorium, which has long been dingy. Slate
blackboards will be placed in all class rooms. It is hoped that the
auditorium may be so reconstructed as to give adequate stage room.
A stage 33 by 14 feet behind the curtain with a depth of 6 feet in front
is a possibility. Mr. Cody, an Erie architect, has been called in consul
tation on this matter.

ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR THE YEAR 1919-1920
FACULTY CHANGES
Athletics
Mr. Regis Harrison, one of the best known athletic coaches in
western Pennsylvania, for the past two years coach at the Polish
Alliance College, has been appointed director of athletics. Mr. Harri
son will teach the men’s classes in Physical Culture and coach all
men’s teams.
Miss Eleanor K. Mauser, of Fairlee, Vt., a graduate of the Posse
Normal School of Gymnastics of Boston, has been chosen to teach
the girls’ classes in Physical Culture and coach girls’ basket-ball.
Deans
In order to give our students a certain counsel that may have
been lacking in the past, it has been decided by the Board of Trustees
to appoint a Dean of Men and a Dean of Women. Mr. H. Sackett. head
of the department of history, has been appointed Dean of Men.
In assigning the work of Dean of Women, it was decided to com
bine this work with, that of the department of modiern languages
which has been vacant this year. As yet no one has been selected
to act as Dean of Women and head of the department of modern lan
guages. Several women of broad culture and experience have made
application and are being favorably considered.
EXPENSES
The constantly increasing cost of food stuffs has made it neces
sary, if the standard of living and service of the past few years was
to be maintained, to increase our charge for room and board. At the
July meeting of the Board of Trustees, it was decided to increase both
the rate and the service. Hereafter, the charge to boarding students
will be six dollars ($6.00) a week. This charge will cover room, board,
registration fee and washing. Under this arrangement, the students’
washing, not including ironing, will be done in the school laundry.
Students may do their own ironing in the laundry room especially
equipped for this work, or, they can arrange to have it done at their
own expense.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL
The Summer School is a success. All the rooms in Haven Hall
were reserved before the students arrived. Girls have been rooming on
the first floor of Reeder Hall. The enrollment is over one hundred and
sixty. Nearly every student registered on the opening day and all got
promptly to work. The school never had a more earnest group of
students.
The student body is largely composed of those preparing for
teachers’ examinations for provisional, professional, or permanent
certificates. Not a few students are planning to return this fall or
later to take the regular Normal course.

the campus. The tennis courts have several beautiful rambler roses.
The Edinboro Normal School cares as much about the appearance
of its rear campus as it does for that open to the public view. Clematis
is now growing at the rear entrance of Reeder Hall, and by the plant
ing of shrubs, vines, and flowers a beginning has been made toward
making the court between the wings of Haven Hall an attractive place.
,
The present generation of Edinboro students is fortunate in the
heritage of many trees of noble height and spacious shade. Not to care
for and improve the campus would be treachery to the past.
SPRING TERM ATHLETICS
A small number of boys cannot support both track athletics and
base ball. Therefore the boys of E. S. N. S. this spring after careful
consideration chose track athletics. The Normal’s first interscholastic
track meet was with the National Polish Alliance College of Cam
bridge Springs. The score was 58-32 in favor of Edinboro.
Another event of great interest was the inter-class track meet.
The seniors won from the underclassmen andi the High School by
the following score: Seniors, 55 1-2 points; Underclassmen, 28 1-2
points; High School, 52 points. The High School would have taken

the meet if the Seniors had given them the least chance. It was neces
sary to run three heats for E. Blystone and A. Blystone to decide
first and second place in the hurdles. Several records of last year
were equaled or broken. The meet consisted of the following events:
100 yard dash, 220 yard dash, 440 yard dash, 880 yard run, mile run,
120 yard hurdle, shot put, discus, javelin, broad jump, running high
jump, pole vault, relay.
Arthur Lewis T9 won the annual pentathlon by taking two first
places, one second, one fourth and one fifth. The following events were
chosen by the contestants on the day of the meet: lOOyard dash, shot
put, broad jump, discus throw, and one half mile. The place a man
made in the meet scored that many points against him. The final
scores against each man were as follows: Lewis 13; Hopkins 19;
Mallory 21; Harvey 24; Klrschner 24; E. Blystone 24; A. Blystone 25;
Morgan 32. A gold medal was awarded for first place, a silver medal
for second place, and three bronze medals for third, fourth and fifth
place. Harvey, manager of the track team, resigned his claim to a
medal, there being a tie of three men for the fourth place. The meet
was hotly contested all the way, the winner being in doubt until the
last event. Hopkins and Lewis were tied with 11 points each at the
beginning of the half mile.

It IS always interesting to know the best that a school has yet
done in track athletics. In the following summary Howard, Lingo,
and Henry are alumni of the class of 1918; the others are this year’s
contestants. Will another year make the record better?

THE PLAY
“Days in Sherwoodi” was the title of the commencement play
which portrayed the daring feats of Robin Hood and his Merry Men.
The outlaw being in love with a royal ward. Lady Marion de Baux, was
a source of interesting complications. The two leading parts were well
taken by Hugh Buchanan and Gertrude McGraw. The cast included
over thirty actors. Dialog, singing, and fairy dances combined to make

the play.
The fairies dancing under coiored iights were most beau
tiful. The performance was fittingly given outdoors, the shrubs and
trees south of Recitation Hali contributing forest scenery. This made
a beautiful setting and the acting was spirited and appropriate. The
temporarily constructed out-door auditorium was filled to its capacity.
ALUMNI INTERESTS
The Almuni have various ways of showing their interest in the
school. One is by bringing together on Alumni Day the iargest crowd
of commencement week. At the annuai Aiumni meeting a fine ioyalty
to the school was voiced both in the speeches of individuals and in
the resolutions adopted by the association.
The Alumni dinner taxed the capacity of the new dining haii. Mr.
Jerome Rusterhoitz, the retiring president, was toastmaster. The alum
ni who responded to toasts were Mr. A. A. Culbertson, ’93; Mr. Earl
D. Bruner, ’01; Mr. Neil Matthews, ’15, the new president; and Miss
Eiizaheth Firth, president of the graduating class. The Alumni heard
with much pleasure a newly appointed trustee. Turner W. Shacklett,
Esq. of Erie. The concluding speech was made by Principal Prank E.
Baker. The cumulative effect of all the speeches was to make one
realize how much a school may mean in the lives of its students,.

One very practical way in which the Alumni help the school is
by contributions to the Alumni Loan Fund. A small loan without in
terest is often a necessary aid to a worthy student.

VOCATIONAL WORK
The Edlnboro High School will offer vocational courses this fall.
Its affiliation of severai years with the Normal School will be strength
ened. The courses in Home^Making and Agriculture will be
he given in the Normal buildings. N7 will be used as a class room.
The new Agriculture laboratory will be used; Manual Training will
given in the basement of Reeder Hall and Home Making in the
Domestic Science laboratory. Considerable new equipment will be
added for this work.
REPAIRS
A special appropriation of $5000 for necessary repairs has sim
plified a perplexing problem. Much electric wiring of recitation rooms
was already being done, the rooms on the second floor of Reeder Hall
were to be redecorated, and arrangements have been made to paint
Recitation Hall brick red with white woodwork. Now it will be possi
ble to redecorate the auditorium, which has long been dingy. Slate
blackboards will be placed in all class rooms. It is hoped that the
auditorium may be so reconstructed as to give adequate stage room.
A stage 33 by 14 feet behind the curtain with a depth of 6 feet in front
is a possibility. Mr. Cody, an Erie architect, has been called in consul
tation on this matter.

ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR THE YEAR 1919-1920
FACULTY CHANGES
Athletics
Mr. Regis Harrison, one of the best known athletic coaches in
western Pennsylvania, for the past two years coach at the Polish
Alliance College, has been appointed director of athletics. Mr. Harri
son will teach the men’s classes in Physical Culture and coach all
men’s teams.
Miss Eleanor K. Mauser, of Fairlee, Vt., a graduate of the Posse
Normal School of Gymnastics of Boston, has been chosen to teach
the girls’ classes in Physical Culture and coach girls’ basket-ball.
Deans
In order to give our students a certain counsel that may have
been lacking in the past, it has been decided by the Board of Trustees
to appoint a Dean of Men and a Dean of Women. Mr. H. Sackett. head
of the department of history, has been appointed Dean of Men.
In assigning the work of Dean of Women, it was decided to com
bine this work with, that of the department of modiern languages
which has been vacant this year. As yet no one has been selected
to act as Dean of Women and head of the department of modern lan
guages. Several women of broad culture and experience have made
application and are being favorably considered.
EXPENSES
The constantly increasing cost of food stuffs has made it neces
sary, if the standard of living and service of the past few years was
to be maintained, to increase our charge for room and board. At the
July meeting of the Board of Trustees, it was decided to increase both
the rate and the service. Hereafter, the charge to boarding students
will be six dollars ($6.00) a week. This charge will cover room, board,
registration fee and washing. Under this arrangement, the students’
washing, not including ironing, will be done in the school laundry.
Students may do their own ironing in the laundry room especially
equipped for this work, or, they can arrange to have it done at their
own expense.
