Foreword 


Y  SEE  ALL,  know  all,  hear  all,  heed  all.  I  am 
J[^  the  Carontawan,  the  Little  Town  On  the  Hill, 
if  you  will,  but  above  all — I  am  you.  I  repre- 
sent your  fun,  your  sorrows,  your  work,  your 
play.  If  you  have  been  just,  likewise  have  L 
Your  memories  that  you  wished  to  keep,  I  have  en- 
deavored to  chronicle,  but  if  I  have  missed  them 
I  will  serve  to  keep  them,  by  association,  always 
at  your  beck  and  call.  You  came  here,  lived, 
learned,  loved,  sang,  wept,  and  now  without  apol- 
ogy, but  perhaps  with  sorrow,  you  leave.  So  1, 
your  Carontawan,  offer  myself,  without  apology, 
to  you.  May  I  serve  in  always  keeping  you  re- 
minded of  Mansfield  State.  Remember,  I  am  you, 
I  am  the  Little  Town  on  the  Hill,  the  Carontawan. 


JN  RECOGNITION  of  his 
years  of  service  as  an  in- 
structor in  Mansfield  State 
Normal  School;  in  appreciation 
of  his  sincerity  as  a  friend  of 
the  students ;  as  a  symbol  of  our 
true  affection,  we,  the  class  of 
Nineteen  Hundred  Twenty-seven 
respectfully  dedicate  this  book  to

"I  hold  every  man  a  debtor  to  his  profession." — Bacon. 


ANSFIELD  STATE  NORMAL  students  have 
elected  to  become  a  part  of  what  is  perhaps 
the  greatest  profession  in  the  Viforld.  We  have 
elected  to  aid  in  giving  a  proper  start  to  the  children  of 
today — the  men  and  women  of  tomorrow.  In  so  choosing 
this  profession  we  have  assumed  a  responsibility.  We 
have  a  debt  to  pay.  Our  entrance  to  this  profession 
requires  a  certain  amount  of  preparation.  Our  privilege 
to  obtain  this  preparation  is  not  a  thing  that  just  happened; 
is  is  the  result  of  centuries  of  building-up  processes — 
of  many  lives  spent  in  bettering  conditions  that  we  might 
enter  life  in  a  better  environment.  We  are  indebted,  then, 
to  former  educators  for  their  lives,  intelligence  and 
developments.  They  have  so  spent  their  lives  that  the 
mighty  profession  of  education  could  be  enhanced,  and 
thus  we  find  that  we  owe  our  personality,  our  integrity, 
and  the  best  in  our  lives  to  the  profession  we  have  entered. 
Then,  too,  there  is  another  element  which  must  be 
considered.  The  higher  our  intelligence,  the  more  time 
and  energy  we  should  spend  in  preparing  ourselves  for 
our  life's  work,  and  the  greater  our  attainment  the  more 
we  owe  the  world.  In  other  words  we  are  bound  by  that 
great  unwritten  law  of  the  universe  to  pay  a  debt  to 
posterity  and  the  greater  we  have  been  served  the  greater 
is  our  debt.  We  are  privileged  to  pay  a  large  part  of  it 
through  our  profession  and  the  remainder  through  our 
contribution  to  societv  and  oui-  service  to  our  fellow-men.

Pti^e  Twenty 


Mansfield  Becofnes  Teachers'  College 


rUESDAY,  OCTOBER  25,  was  a  memorable  date  in  Vr.e  history  of  Mansfield 
State  Normal  School.  At  11  o'clock  on  that  day  Mr.  Henry  Klonower, 
representing  the  State  Department  of  Public  Instruction,  presented  to  the 
school  through  Dr.  William  R.  Straug-hn,  a  decree  which  gave  the  school  full  power 
to  give  four  year  courses.  With  this  came  the  power  to  grant  the  Bachelor  of  Science 
degree.  In  speaking  of  the  event  Mr.  Klonower  said  that  two  great  events  had 
happened  in  the  history  of  Mansfield  State  Normal.  The  first  was  the  coming  of  Dr. 
Straughn  to  the  school  as  principal,  and  the  second  was  this  occasion  when  the  school 
was  off'icially  changed  into  a  state  teachers'  college. 

In  order  to  attain  this  recognition  the  faculty  of  the  school  had  to  measure 
up  to  the  standards  of  college  and  university  faculties.  The  student  body  had  to  be 
a  high  type  of  high  school  graduates,  sincelery  interested  in  the  teaching  profession. 
A  sub-committee  composed  of  Dr.  Parkes,  Dr.  Dickey,  Mr.  Cope,  Dr.  Koch  and  Mr. 
Klonower  examined  every  phase  of  the  schools  applying  for  permission  to  become 
state  teacher  colleges.

LOUISE  ARTLEY 


"Weesie" 


Muncy,  Pa. 


Art  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 


Louise  is  one  of  our  very  interesting  third-floor 
blonds.  She  is  always  buried  in  a  book,  as  a  visit  to 
her  room  shows.  Nevertheless,  she  is  always  ready  for 
some  fun.  The  kiddies  all  like  her  and  we  know  she 
will  be  very  successful — if  she  chooses  to  follow  the 
teaching  profession. 

Louise  has  very  decided  likes.  One  is  pickles.  She 
is  also  deeply  interested  in  a  "Hill"  of  Muncy.  Be  it 
understood,  this  doesn't  mean  the  Muncy  Hills. 


MARGARET  BALLOG  Throop,   Pa. 

"Peg" 

Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Art  Club;   Hiking  Club. 

"Peggy"  with  her  straight  black  bobbed  hair,  snappy 
eyes  and  loving  disposition  is  one  of  the  girls  who  be- 
longs  to   that  famous  "Throop   Corporation." 

She  is  a  jolly  good  sport,  always  ready  for  a  spread 
or  any  other  good  time.  But  that  is  not  the  only  place 
where  she  shines.  Studious? — well  I  guess,  yes.  In 
fact  she  is  a  good  student  in  everything,  especially 
primaiy  work,  and  we  predict  that  the  road  to  success 
lies   straight   ahead   of  her. 


East    Smithfield 


Lifty" 


"Lifty"  is  a  happy-go-lucky  girl,  who  is  loved  by 
all  of  us,  has  a  smile  for  everyone  she  meets,  is  always 
out  for  a  good  time,  and  to  make  a  long  story  short — 
is  a  wonderful  all-around  sport.  You  are  sure  to  find 
her  on  the  tennis  courts  in  good  weather.  She  is  al- 
ways singing  and  making  others  happy.  We  wish  you 
the  best  of  success  in  your  teaching,  "Lifty."

LORENA  BROWN 


Ulster,  Pa. 


Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club;  Emersonian  Literary 
Society. 

If  you  know  Lorena,  you  have  one  of  the  best  pals  at 
Mansfield  State  Normal  School.  When  she  has  her 
work  finished,  she's  game  for  any  fun,  hike,  dance, 
swim,  or  occasionally  a  spread.  Previously  she  has 
taught,  so  with  her  experience  and  training,  her 
friends  expect  her  to  make  an  extremely  successful 
primary  teacher.  Some  day  we  shall  all  be  proud  that 
we  knew  "Rena." 


MARY  BURNS 


"Mary" 


Scranton,  Pa. 


Art  Club;  Athletic  Club;  Hiking  Club;  Outdoor  Club. 
"While  men  have  eyes,  or  ears,  or  taste, 
She'll  always  find  a  lover." 
Pretty  brown  hair,  true  blue  eyes,  fair  face,  pearly 
white  teeth,  a  happy  smile,  a  warm  heart  and  a  gen- 
erous nature  fittingly  describes  Mary.     There  are  many 
nice  things  that  can  be  said  about  Mary.    She  is  one  of 
those  fortunate  persons  whom  everyone  just  naturally 
likes    without    knowing    why.     There    is    one    thing    of 
which  we  are  positive  and  that   is — Mary  is   just  the 
"  kind  of  a  girl  that  men  don't  forget. 


LILLIAN  LEONE  CASS 


Rummerfield,  Pa. 


Rurban  Club. 


"Lilly,"  our  experienced  teacher  and  classmate,  has 
been  with  us  only  one  whole  year.  In  spite  of  this  fact 
we  are  sure  to  miss  her  pleasant  smile  and  winning 
ways.  We  have  tried  to  entertain  Lillian  in  such  a 
manner  during  this  short  period  that  she  may  profit 
by  our  mistakes.  Even  though  Lillian's  love  does  not 
stand  out  in  her  eyes  like  that  of  many  others  of  the 
feminine  sex,  we  rest  almost  assured  that  some  fair  com- 
plexioned  creature  of  the  opposite  sex  will  stop  to  help 
her  over  the  stony  path  of  life.

BEATRICE  CURTIS 


Wayniart,  Pa. 


"Bea"  "Belie" 


Y.  W.  C.  A. 


If  you  want  to  know  a  jolly,  fun-loving  and  true 
friend,  just  call  at  340  and  ask  for  "Bea."  She  may 
look  serious,  but  just  come  to  some  of  the  parties  there 
and  if  you're  a  little  blue  when  you  come — you  won't 
be  when  you  go — for  "Bea's"  hearty  laugh  is  quite 
contagious.     As  for  eating  ice  cream — she  wins!!! 

Good  luck  and  success  to  you,  "Bea." 


GRETCHEN  DECKER 


Waverly,  Pa. 


Rurban  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Emersonian  Literary 
Society. 

Gretchen  Decker  is  one  of  our  Waverly  girls  who 
never  fails  to  greet  you  with  a  cheery  smile,  which  has 
won   her   many  friends. 

Clever  in  her  classes,  conscientious  about  her  work, 
quite  capable  of  enjoying  a  good  time,  but  she  can  also 
be  a  dignified  school  teacher.  A  more  true  friend  or 
more  loyal  companion  than  Gretchen  would  be  hard  to 
find. 


IRENE  DITCHBURN  Arnot,  Pa. 

"Irene" 

Athletic  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Irene  is  a  happy-go-lucky  girl,  tall  and  thin,  jolly 
and  full  of  fun. 

All  week  she  leaves  her  work  undone  with  her  by- 
word "I'm  staying  this  week-end."  But  when  Friday 
comes  she  can't  resist,  so  runs  off  to  catch  the  train. 
We  don't  blame  her  for  that,  do  you  ? 


i     IMARY  GRACE  DOYLE 


Pittston,  Pa. 


Secretary,   Art   Club;    Emersonian   Literary   Society; 
Treasurer,  Athletic  Club;  Hiking  Cluh;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

To  know  Grace  is  a  liberal  education.  There  is  just 
one  word  describes  her  and  that  is  "charm."  iHer  dig- 
nity has  won  for  her  many  friends,  and  everyone  at 
Mansfield  State  will  miss  her  when  she  graduates. 
Grace  can  always  be  depended  upon,  she  is  loyal  in 
every  sense  of  the  word.  It  is  hard  t<j  keep  track  'of  all 
Grace's  cases,  but  at  present  she  is  interested  in — 'nuff^ 
^aid!  Grace's  motto  is,  "We  lose  vigor  through  think-' 
ing  continually  of  the  same  people."  "New  people  are 
n(  \\   life."     Well,  variety  is  the  spice  of  life.

VELMA  EDMINSTER 


Painted  Post,  N.  Y. 


"Val" 

Treasurer,   Hiking   Club;  Y.  W.   C.  A. 

"Val"  always  wears  a  happy  -smile  even  if  she  does 
wear  a  diamond.  Two  of  Velma's  best  pals  in  school 
are  "Art"  and  "Gym."  While  at  school  she  spends  her 
time  with  these  two,  but  over  the  week-ends  that  she 
spends  at  home  a  third  party  enters  in,  who,  to  our 
knowledge,  is  "Chet." 


RUTH  EDWARDS 


"Rufu?'' 


Wyoming,  Pa. 


Outdoor  Club;  Secretary,  Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Glee  Club. 

Ruth  is  one  of  the  bashful  girls, 
With  dark  brown  eyes  and  hair  that  curls; 
She  takes  life  easy,  in  her  own  sweet  way. 
But  is  always  happy  at  the  close  of  day. 
Her   duties,   they're   both   large   and   small. 

But  fun's  mixed  in  with  one  and  all. 

We  all  love  "Ruthie"  deep  down  in  our  heart, 
So  with  this  ending  we'll  depart. 


ELEANORA   FISHER  Williamsport,  Pa. 

Vice-President,  "Masquers"  '25-'26. 

"A  regular  girl,  and  the  best  of  pals,"  All  who  know 
"Fisher"  love  her,  for  she  is  ever  and  always  ready  to 
partake  of  any  activity.  One  of  the  most  pleasing 
personalities  of  any  in  the  school  is  that  belonging  to 
our  own  "Fisher.""  Her  pet  hobby  is  to  climb  moun- 
tains and  roam  the  woods — alone?  Oh,  no!  May 
you  have  your  heart's  desire,  "Fisher." 


11^     M4RGARET  FULLER     -^.^iM,      Shinglehouse,  Pa. 

?'   .  Tftis  little  lass  came  to"us  frbm  Shinglehouse.     She 
but    she's    very    large    at 


,  isn't    very    large    in    stature, 

'heart. 

She  spends  a  good  part  of  her  time  traveling.  We 
wish  you  the  best  of  success  in  your  chosen  work  of 
life,  Marg-aret,  whether  it  be  teaching  school  or  keeping- 
house.

MYRTLE  FAHS  Clark's  Summit,  Pa. 

"Myrt" 

Athletic  Club. 

Here's  our  brown-eyed  Myrtle.  A  prirl  who  is  rec- 
ognized by  her  ever-pleasing  smile.  She  always  looks 
for  the  bright  side  of  life  and  usually  succeeds  in  find- 
ing it.  Her  smile  is  very  contagious  and  is  the  kind 
that  wins  her  friends  wherever  she  goes,  and,  having 
won  them,  keeps  them. 

Her  pretty  eyes  and  winning  ways 

Are    qualities    which    her    friends    can    praise. 


SARAH  GRIFFITHS

Taylor,  Pa. 


'Griff" 


RUTH  HANEY 

Seemingly,  Ruth  would  be  called  a  very  serious 
person.  Truly  enough,  she  is  quite  studious,  but  un- 
der all  of  this  seriousness  she  is  full  of  fun.  Taking 
these  two  qualities  together — who  would  miss  having 
her  as  a  friend  ?    "Not  I,"  say  several  who  know  her. 

We  are  sure  Ruth  will  make  a  fine  teacher  and  we 
wish  her  a  lot  of  luck. 


THELMA  HORNBECK 


A  great  big  smile,  laughing  eyes,  and  a  clever  joke, 
that's  "Griff."  Whenever  you  are  feeling  blue  just  go 
to  room  551  and  we  guarantee  a  more  pleasant  state  of 
mind  after  your  visit.  It  is  not  necessary  to  tell  her 
host  of  friends  that  she  is  the  life  of  any  crowd  for 
they  know  it  only  too  well.  Good  times  are  incomplete 
without  "Griff."  Her  specialties  are  feeds,  dancing, 
and  basketball.  A  good  sport  always,  nothing  too  hard 
for  her  to  undertake — which  makes  her  one  we  like  to 
have  around. 


Lawton,  Pa, 


Forest  City,  Pa. 

Thelma  is  a  pleasure-seeking  lass,  and  finds  a  part 
of  her  pay  in  Educational  Sociology  class.  We  wonder 
why?  When  she  is  not  in  Sociology  class  she  finds  her 
joy  and  comfort  in  the  radiator  in  S.  H.  and  "Doc." 
She  is  interested  in  dancing  and  athletics,  and  does  her 
part  in  helping  to  support  all  school  functions.  Thelma 
also  has  her  good  qualities  for  she  is  overwhelmed  at 
the  thought  of  teaching  those  "dear  little  children"  in, 
the  primary    grades.

Seldom  "can't," 
Seldom  "don't." 
Never  ''shan't." 
Never  "won't." 

That's  our  Angeline,  all  right.  She  is  an  optimistic 
individual  who  is  always  ready  and  willing  to  boost  her 
school  and  town.  Angeline  attended  two  summer  ses- 
sions and  the  year  of  '2.5-'26  coming  last  January  to 
graduate  with  the  class  of  '27.  She  has  proved  to  be 
an  excellent  teacher  and  further  success  is  the  sincere 
wish  of  all   her  friends. 


HELEN  HOWER 


•Inky" 


Scranton,  Pa. 


Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Art  Club;  Hiking  Club. 


Let  us  introduce  you  to  Helen,  a  jolly  little  girl  with 
brown  hair  and  eyes.  She  has  her  likes  and  dislikes 
and  is  not  afraid  to  express  them. 

Patient,  loving,  kind  and  true. 

Willing  whatever  you   want   her  to   do; 

Good  sport,  good  scholar,  good  friend,  too. 

We  all  love  her,  and  no  doubt  you  do,  too.

Come,  ancient  bards,  and  sing  of  her — 
Who  is  loving  and  gentle  and  kind, 
You  can  wander  from  village  to  village 
But  one  like  her  you  will  never  find. 

For   she's   sweeter  by  far,  so  all  her  friends   say, 
Than  the  roses  in  June,  than  the  sunshine  in  May. 
In  Art  and  Music  she  doth  excell. 
Has  an  interest  in  flower — 'Sweet  Williams" — Well!

Tiog'a,  Pa. 


She's  just  another  senior  girl,  but  she  Iceeps  things 
moving.  When  we  are  all  tangled  she  unties  the  knots, 
and  !o!  we  are  straight  again. 

She  is  small  and  hlond,  with  wise  blue  eyes. 

And  many  friends,  'tis  true, 
Who  wish  her  just  a  great  success 
Through  all  her  long  life,  too.

Helen  is  one  of  our  happy  gang  in  Group  I.  She  is 
a  very  delightful  person.  All  who  know  her  well  can 
consider  themselves  lucky  for  she  is  an  all-around  good 
sport,  a  good  student,  and  a  better  friend.  Helen's  re- 
served manner  adds  greatly  to  her  success  as  a  teacher. 
She  is  well  liked  by  all  of  the  youngsters  as  you  could 
readily  see  from  observing  her.  We  hope  that  the 
teaching  profession  my  claim  her  for  some  time.

Ethel  is  a  jolly,  fun-loving,  good-natured  Normalite. 
She  loves  to  sing  popular  jazz  and  always  knows  the 
latest  in  music.  Ethel  has  the  art  of  making  and  keep- 
ing friends.  Once  a  friend,  always  a  friend,  is  her  only 
peculiarity.  All  who  have  known  her  believe  that  good 
things  come  in  little  packages.

Quiet,  even-tempered,  good  natured,  jolly  and  re-

Martha.  Martha  is  a  good  scholar  with  man^"  talents, 
some  concealed;  for  instance,  her  ability  to  play  a  'Cello. 
Martha  is  a  sure  cure  for  the  blues.  She  appreciates  a 
joke  and  teasing  might  well  be  termed  her  hobby.  A1-, 
though  she  may  be  a  Koon,  she's  a  dear.  A  good  paid 
with  a  host  of  friends  is  Martha.  <-]|

"Shortie" 

Emersonian  Literary  Society;  Athletic  Club;  Hiking 
Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Helen  is  one  of  the  famous  Throop  Gang.  "Shortie" 
was  the  name  given  to  her.  We  cannot  say  why  this 
name  was  chosen,  because  as  far  as  we  know,  she  is 
not  short  in  height,  short  in  fun,  short  in  songs,  short 
in  talking,  and  certainly  not  shoit  in  appetite.  Never- 
thelcBs,  we  want  to  say  that  we  can  never  forget  her 
as  one  of  the  best  sports  we  knew  at  Normal. 


HELEN  LENCZESKY  Throop,  Pa. 

"Skinny" 

Emersonian;  Hiking  Club;  Athletic  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

To  list  all  of  our  Helen's  good  qualities  would  take  too 
much  time  and  space.  To  a  stranger  Hslen  appears  as 
a  tall,  quiet,  dignified,  studious  Normalite.  But  her 
sc.:col  chums  know  her  as  one  of  the  jolliest,  fun-loving 
girls  than  can  be  found  in  Normal,"  Whenever  there 
is  any  mischief  or  a  joke  to  be  played,  Helen  is  sure  to 
shine.     She  also  is  very  fond  of  boxes  marked  "Eats." 


EDITH  B.  LINDBERG  Painted  Post,  N.  Y. 

"Bobby" 

Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club. 

"Laugh,  and  the  world  laughs  with  you; 
Weep,  and  you  weep  alone." 
This  is  "Bobby"  all  over.  Speaking  of  eats  and  good 
times,  you'll  find  "Bobby"  doing  her  share  to  keep  the 
bunch  awake.  Yet  she  is  a  conscientious  worker.  The 
Training  School  is  her  pet  by-word.  Best  wishes  to 
you  and  may  you  always  be  as  happy  as  you  were  at 
Mansfield  State.

jkOne  thing-  we  regret  in  our  school  life  is  that  we  are 
not  better  acquainted  with  the  people  who  live  down 
town  Gertrude  is  one  of  this  group,  and  her  snappy 
eyes  and  friendly  smile  tell  us  that  we  would  like  to 
know  her  better  than  we  do.  She  takes  a  great  interest 
in  pi  imary  work.  We  surely  wish  her  good  luck  in  her 
future  life.

Here  is  another  one  of  those  down-town  girls.  If  you 
want  to  l^now  someone  with  a  charming-  disposition  and 
a  happy  smile,  make  her  your  friend.  She  is  a  good 
sport  in  every  sense  of  the  word.  Madge  should  succeed 
in  her  chosen  profession,  because  she  has  had  much 
practice  in  disciplining.    Ask  the  Beach  Gang! 


ELIZABETH  MUTO 


"Betty" 


Throop,  Pa. 


Hiking  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Picture  a  short  girl  with  dark  hair — a  fair  complexion 
and  pleasing  personality.  She's  another  member  of  the 
Throop  Gang,  and  like  the  rest  of  them  knows  her  les- 
sons each  day.  Betty  excells  in  two  things:  singing 
some  sweet  melodies,  and  playing  basketball.  All 
Betty's  qualities  cannot  be  listed.  She  is  a  friend  whom 
one  can  tiust  and  rely  upon.  We  predict  a  great  future 
for  her — n'everything. 


FREDERICKA  MARIE  NEWELL 


Leolyn,  Pa. 


Fredericka  is  a  dignified  maid  who  keeps  her  own 
counsel.  She  doesn't  indulge  in  argument  as  her  fel- 
low students  do.  She  just  sits  and  like  the  wise  old  owl, 
sees  and  hears  all,  but  takes  no  side.  We  all  know 
"Still  waters  run  deep,"  and  this  girl  proves  it.  Here's 
luck  to  you  Fredericka. 


ANGELA    O'DONNELL  Scranton,  Pa. 

"Ang" 

Art  Club;  Athletic  Cluh;  Hiking  Club;  Hockey  Team. 

A  ru.sh  up  the  stairs,  a  violent  opening  of  the  door, 
a  slamming  of  books — and  we  have  "Ang."  She  is  al- 
ways full  of  pep  and  fun,  and  has  plenty  of  the  so- 
called  "Irish  wit."  You  can  always  call  upon  her  when 
enthusiasm  is  needed  or  when  spirits  are  lagging. 
"Ang"  is  school  spirit  itself.  What  would  we  do  with- 
out her?  Please  tell  me  that!  Do  you  want  someone 
to  chase  the  blues  away?  Is  the  hockey  team  looking 
for  a  center-forward?  Does  the  school  need  a  cheer- 
leader?    Just  call  in  "Ang,"  she'll  "fill  the  bill."

For  two  years  a  spritely  and  delightful  person  has 
been  seen  around  Normal.  And  to  think  what  those 
years  would  have  been  without  her — well,  even  sug- 
gesting: such  a  thought  leaves  an  empty  space.  Thanks 
to  Dame  Fortune  for  "Ronnie." 


EVALYN  M.  OGDEN 


Herrick  Center,  Pa. 


In  the  class  room  as  a  student;  before  the  class  as  a 
teacher;  and  among  her  classmates  as  a  friend;  one 
word  describes  Evalyn — "poise."  We  admire  it,  and 
we  have  often  wondered  if  it  doesn't  come  from  an  in- 
ward joy  of  living  and  satisfaction  gained  from  good 
literature,  music,  and  art,  which  she  sometimes  enjoys. 

Your  aims  are  high  Evalyn,  and  if  sometimes  your 
head  is  in  the  clouds,  we  know  it  all  goes  toward  your 
desire  to  reach  up,  to  lift  up,  and  to  live  up  to  the  best 
that's  in  you. 


LILLIAN  W.  OLOFSON 


Westfield,  Pa. 


Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club. 


Sunny  good  nature  combined  with  a  love  for  her  work 
is  a  good  recommendation  for  a  teacher,  so  we  are  sure 
of  Lillian's  success.  Where  there  are  "eats,"  there  also 
is  Lillian.  No  party  is  quite  complete  without  her,  and 
her  room  is  always  ringing  with  laughter.  No  gloom 
with  Lil  around.

A  bit  of  the  sunshine,  a  bit  of  the  whirlwind,  a  bit'

A  real  companion. 

She's   bhoi-t  and  jolly,  and  very  swe^        ^:^ 

She  smiles  at  each  and  all  she  meets.   ..„,_^.._.,„_ 

We  know  she'll  have  the  best  of  luck,    ""■■"—" 

Because  of  her  supply  of  pluck.

Kingsley,  Pa. 


Pauline  Pennay,  so  they  say, 
Studies  hard  all   night  and  day. 
Always  cheerful,  never  blue, 
Kind  and  loyal — through  and  through. 
Success  will  surely  be  her  aim 
If  she  remains  as  now,  the  same 
Studious    girl    we've    known    at    school, 
She  never  disobeyed  a  rule. 
And  when  at  last  success  is  had. 
She'll  up  and  marry  some  nice  lad. 


HELEN  A.  PROOF  Sayre,  Pa. 

Art  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

A  willing  heart  and  a  helping  hand;  always  ready  on 
demand,  that's  Helen,  every  time!  She  is  a  conscien- 
tious student,  and  has  shown  her  ability  by  her  success 
as  a  teacher  in  the  Training  School.  Helen  is  always 
ready  to  have  a  good  time  and  plenty  of  fun.  We  feel 
there  is  a  bright  future  ahead  of  her. 


Dickson  City,  Pa. 


LILLIAN  P.  RICHARDSON 

Outdoor  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

"Novel,"  as  she  is  called  by  her  friends,  has  this 
motto:  "Eat,  drink,  and  be  merry,  for  tomorrow  you 
die"."'  She  cheerfully  lives  up  to  this  by  her  famous 
imitations  and  wise  saying-s,  keeping  her  friends  in  a 
light-hearted  frame  of  mind. 

Lillian  has  made  many  friends  at  Mansfield  State, 
and  more  than  one  will  miss  her  when  school  o])ens 
next  fall.  * 


CATHERINE  PHILLIPS  Wanamie,  Pa. 

Outdoor  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club. 

A  smile  wreathed  in  dimples;  your  heart  is  readily  j! 
won.  That  describes  "Kate"  in  real  life.  Then  too  she 
is  a  real  student,  always  accomplishing  the  task  set 
before  her.  Looking  toward  the  future  we  find  its 
streets  paved  with  success  and  happiness.  In  leisure 
moments,  we  see  "Kate"  swaying  to  the  rythm  of 
Irving  Berlin's  latest.  She  is  just  the  sort  of  a  girl  we 
want  for  a  friend  and  companion.

MARJORIE  CARRIE  SPENCER  Nicholson,  Pa. 

"Marge" 

Y.  W.  C.  A. 

"Marge"  is  one  of  those  seemingly  quiet  girls  w'.to 
room  on  fourth  floor.  Dignified  and  reserved  at  times, 
but  always  ready  for  fun  when  the  onpoitunity  presents 
itself.  Recently  "Marge"  has  acquired  a  sporty  Ford 
roadster.  We  wonder  why!  It  certainly  shortens  the 
time  required  to  go  to  Ithaca,  doesn't  it?  Aside  fiom 
motoring  "Marge's"  chief  delights  are  found  in  pretty 
clothes  and  dancing.  "Marge"  has  selected  the  kinder- 
garten as  her  special  field  of  work,  and  we  are  sure 
she  will  be  successful  in  it. 


HELEN  GWENDOLYN  STANLICK  S?ranton,  Pa. 

"Gwen" 

Art  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Student  Council. 

Helen — No,  she's  not  from  Troy; 
She's   from   Scranton;   don't  you  know? 
Some  call  her  one  of  the  bashful  girls. 
But  she  has  as  many  friends  as  curls. 
We  all  love  her  when  she  smiles, 
And  when  she  frowns  we  run  m'les. 
Her  favorite  ciy  is  like  every  girl's: 
"Where's  my  mail?" 
And  off  she  whirls. 


DOROTHY  STEVENS

'Dottle" 


Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club;  Emersonian  Literary 
Society. 

SIhe's  petite,  neat,  and  always  sweet,  and  a  "darned" 
good  friend  in  the  bargain.  Maybe  the  fourth  hospital 
gang  doesn't  realize  that!  She  wins  many  friends 
wherever  she  goes.  She's  a  girl  worth  knowing.  A 
word  to  the  wise  is  sufficient. 


RUBY  STONE 


Thompson,  Pa. 


Quite  as  sparkling  and  beautiful  as  her  name  signi- 
fies. 

She  loves  to  dance;  she  loves  to  sing, 
jt       And  fool  around,  'n  everything:. 

^-      Does  she  like  her  school   Well,  I  guess. 

»?         She's  a  loyal  supporter  of  S.  N.  S. 

She  especially  loves  to  run  around  with  "our  gang." 
Well,  we  admit  they  do  have  good  times  in  her  gang. 
Of  her  ability  as  a  teacher  there  is  no  doubt,  for  most 
of  her  time  was  spent  in  Model  School  while  she  was 
teaching.  Heie's  to  our  Ruly  Stone;  may  she  get  as 
much  joy  out  of  life  as  she  has  at  Mansfield.

Yes,  Lawi-enceville  sent  us  this  sweet  lassie  and  we 
are  proud  to  call  her  "Our  Lib,"  for  she  has  won  the 
hearts  of  scores  of  friends  during  the  two  years  she 
has  bee'i  w'th  us.  She  has  numerous  qualities  which 
we  can  praise,  but  since  space  is  limited,  we'll  mention 
only  a  few.  Her  charm  is  a  magnet  which  attracts  ad- 
mire" s  innumerable.  Her  personality  and  disposition 
are  fnviable  traits,  for  the  likes  of  them  are  rare  and 
precious.  She  is  stately,  sedate,  serene  and  modest; 
but  when  it  comes  to  good  sportsmanship,  she  possesses 
a  gre?it  degree  of  it  "S'he's  all  that  fancy  painted  her; 
she's  lovely,  she's  divine."

Altho'  she  has   such  a  shy,  sweet  way. 

One  never  can  tell  what  she  might  sayl 

She  is  chucked  full  of  fun, 

But  it  seems  everyone — 

Knows  "Han"  in  a  different  way. 

She  has  a  little  saying  all  her  own, 

It  does  not  rhyme,  we  know; 

But  the  word,  "Pretzel,"  makes  things  go 


RUTH  ANNA  THOMAS  Moosic,  Pa.

Ruth  is  another  of  the  girls  from  Moosic.  She's  jolly 
at  all  tim»es,  and  is  always  in  for  the  fun.  She  is 
especially  fond  of  sports  and  shines  on  the  10  o'clock 
basketball  team.  The  eats  and  geieral  atmosphere  here 
at  Normal  have  been  responsible  for  her  increase  in 
weight.  We  know  she  will  be  a  successful  teacher,  be- 
cause of  her  motherly  habits,  especially  in  giving  com- 
mands.

A  studious,  quiet  maid  is  she, 

A  shy,  demure  little  lass; 

We  know  by  the  way  she  does  her  tasks 

That  she  a  success  will  be. 

Tall  and  stately — with  dark  hair, 

Her  expression  clear  and  complexion  fair; 

Her  sweet  and  tiny  little  voice 

When  heard  in  music

She  studies  some,  she  studies  none, 

She  always   has   her  lesson; 

But  how  she  gets  those  lovely  marks, 

Just  keeps  us  all  a-guessing. 
Don't  let  this  led-haired,  brown-eyed  girl  fool  you, 
for  though  her  eyes  are  innocent  and  guileless,  behind 
them  lurks  aboundina:  mischief.  She  is  not  so  fond  of 
Agriculture,  but  "Phyl"  likes  "Buds."  You  could  not 
find  a  more  loyal  friend  than  "Phyl"  in  North  Hall.

want  to  make  sure  of  it  just  go  to  323  some  night  when 
she  has  lesson  plans  to  wi'ite  and  t' y  to  get  in.  S'he

"Boss,"  quiet  and  unassuming,  taking  everything  for 
granted  and  as  carefree  as  the  day  is  long.  She  has 
been  known  to  study,  but  she  never  allows  her  school 
work  to  interfere  with  her  engagements.  "Boss"  is  con- 
tent if  she  can  attend  classes,  but  believes  in  the  say- 
ing "never  do  today  what  you  can  put  off  'till  today  a 
week",  but  she  always  manages  to  get  by.  We  do  not 
know  what  "Boss"  will  do,  but  we  believe  that  she  will 
make  an  excellent  instructor  in  any  of  the  elementary

A  down-town  student  who  has  impressed  us  with  her 
hard  work  and  ambition.  We  believe  she  will  make  a 
success  as  a  teacher,  if  persistency  and  detei-mination 
are  conducive  to  the  solution  of  the  problem  of  good 
teaching.  We  are  sure  that  her  quiet  nature  will  find 
its  niche  in  the  world.   May  success  be  yours,  classmate!

chose  teaching  and  this  was  not  because  of  the 
salary,  but  it  was  for  the  love  of  the  work.  That  is

Pretty,  popular,  peppy  and  proper!  Don't  you  think 
that  fits  "Pat?"  Tact,  that's  her  middle  name.  "Pat," 
where  did  you  learn  to  use  your  eyes  so  effectively? 
Many  have  fallen  from  the  shafts  of  their  light.  "Pat" 
hails  from  Punxsutawney — !  !  Oh,  my!  what  a  name, 
but  then,  she  says  it's  a  lovely  place,  so — well,  maybe 
it  is,  we  don't  know.  She  is  a  born  homemaker,  and  we 
all  hope  she  chooses  the  right  one.

GEORGIA  ARTHUR 

Who  is  a  true  friend  ?  A  true  friend  is  a  person  upon 
whom  one  can  always  depend;  she  is  lovable  and  trust- 
worthy. Such  a  friend  is  Georgia.  But  these  are  not 
all  of  her  g-ood  qualities.  She  is  sincere  when  the  need 
arises,  but  not  to  the  extent  that  she  sacrifices  innocent 
fun  and  good  times. 

"Willing   she   is   and   eager  to  please. 
What  other  virtues  are  better  than  these." 


BERNICE  BADMONE  Middlebury  Center,  Pa. 

Glee  Club;  Rurban  Club;  Athenaean  Literary  Society. 

A  down-town  girl,  but  everyone  knows  her.  She  is 
very  studious  and  ambitious,  believing  in  "work  first 
and  play  aftei-wards."  Bernice  just  loves  to  play  hockev 
If  you  don't  liclieve  it,  just  ask  Miss  King  olf  any  of 
the  girls  on  the  team.  She  always  has  a  fKjod  .time 
wherever  she  goes,  and  welcomes  everyoni  with  a  Ifeppy 
smile.  We  think  her  sense  of  humor  will  makt  hir  a  i 
successful  teacher.  \^|

AIARY  BAILEY 


Willianisport,  Pa. 


A  dark-haired,  brown-eyed  lassie,  who  is  always  ready 
for  some  fun.  She  woiks  occasionally,  but  would  rather 
wi-ite  letters  or  do  fancy  work.  There  seems  to  be  a 
great  attraction  down  towards  Williamsport  for  her.  I 
wonder  what  it  can  be  ?  Here's  success  and  happiness 
to  Mary  in  whatever  profession  she  may  take  up.

Emily  is  one  of  our  down-town  students.  She  always 
greets  you  with  a  happy  smile,  and  it  has  won  her  many 
friends.  Her  pleasant  manner  makes  her  an  agreeable 
companion.  She  is  a  very  conocientious  and  faithful 
student.  Judg-ing-  from  her  efficiency  as  a  teacher  in 
the  Training  School,  she  is  certain  to  meet  success  in 
her  chosen  profession.

''can   be   quite  jolly   at  times.      He   is   conscientious   and

Known  only  as  "Peg!"  But  known  and  liked  by 
everyone.  She's  one  of  our  jolly  Seniors,  with  a  ready 
smile  and  helping  hand  for  everyone.  If  all  school 
teachers  would  be  a  "Peg,"  wouldn't  we  love  school? 
Is  she  full  of  fun?  Ask  the  "bunch  in  214."  Yes,  "Peg-," 
we  wish  you  every  success.  You'll  attain  it  with  ycur

Here's  to  Cecile,  a  tall,  light-haired  maiden,  who  may 
seem  quiet,  but  is  really  full  of  fun,  when  one  knows 
her.  She  likes  music  and  is  interested  in  mlifeical  in- 
struments. She  is  fond  of  going  home  week-ends.  There 
must  be  a  reason,  time  will  tell. 

She  is  studious  and  will  go  out  a  conscientious  teach- 
er.    We  wish  her  success.

Play,  then  work,  is  Mary's  motto.  She  is  full  of  pep, 
a  good  sport,  and  always  ready  for  a  good  time.  A<;  a 
school  teacher  she  is  sure  to  succeed,  because  her  mmd 
is  always  on  her  work.  Her  character  is  easily  summed 
up  in  the  following  verse: 

She's  as  sweet  as  she  is  fair. 

None,  none  on  earth  above  her! 

As   pure    in   thoughts    as    angels   are. 

To  know  her  is  to  love  her! 


BEULAH  BRADSHAW  Athens,  Pa.

This  atti  active  little  girl  from  Athens  has  proven 
herself  very  capable  as  a  teacher  in  the  Primary  Grades. 
She  is  a  graceful,  fun-loving  girl,  with  beautiful  long 
hair  and  brown,  laughing  eyes.  Here's  the  best  to 
Beulah!

•'Ruthie" 

Y'.  W.  C.  A.;  Emersonian  Literary  So;'ety;  Art  Club. 

"Beginning  right  is  half  the  battle,"  is  Ruth's  motto. 
We  have  heard  that  she  is  an  exceptionally  good  teach- 
er, and  we  surely  do  believe  it.  She  finished  in  January 
and  immediately  started  on  her  teaching  career.  Rut.i 
never  puts  pleasure  before  work,  but  when  work  is 
done,  she  is  full  of  fun. 


AMELIA  BRITTON  Scranton,  Pa. 

Athenaean  Literary  Society,  '26;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Curly  hair  most  attractively  put  up;  white  teeth; 
wicked  eyes;  five  foot  two  in  height;  coupled  with  a 
charming  disposition,  describes  Amelia.  Her  interests 
are  not  wholly  confined  in  Mansfield.  Her  thoug'nts  fre- 
quently are  doin^'  research  work  in  Penn  State.  She  is 
industrious  besides  being  full  of  fun,  well  liked  by  all 
and  disliked  by  none.

We  didn't  know  Mildred  until  this  year — and  it  didn't 
take  long  to  get  acquainted.  However,  we  are  not 
sorry,  for  she's  a  peach  of  a  friend.  When  it  comes  to 
lending  a  broom,  dust-mop,  etc.,  she  can't  be  beat! 
Mildred  is  very  conscientious  in  her  work  and  we're 
sure  she'll  be  successful  in  her  teaching. 


Rush,  Pa. 


.MILDRED  Bl  NNELL 

"Milly" 
Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Rurban  Club. 

Mildred  is  tall  and  quite  erect. 

The  finest  girl  you  ever  met. 

Hard  to  know  when  first  you  meet. 

But  soon  a  friend  and  one  complete. 

She  has   made  her  mark  in  the   Training 

School. 
She  always  lives  up  to  the  rule. 
Success  is  hers,  but  watch  those  eyes. 
They're  bright,  but  surely  catch  the  prize. 
This  is  Mildred — ideal  pal  and  steadfast  friend.     Suc- 
cess be  yours! 


CATHERINE  E.  BURNETT 

"Kitty"

Troy,  Pa. 


"Kitty"  is  a  loyal  little  Trojan,  who  never  accepts  de- 
feat in  any  undertaking.  She  is  just  as  goo^  as  her 
locks  are  curly,  and,  if  you  know  "Kitty"  you  can  appre- 
ciate the  abundance  of  her  goodness. 

"Always  do  your  best  and  do  it  on  time,"  is  the 
motto  of  this  fair  lass,  and  she  has  always  stood  steatl- 
fastly  in  this  theory  at  Mansfield  State.

ILEA  L.  BUSH 


Westfield,  Pa. 


A  black-haired,  black-eyed,  smiling  miss  is  she.  She 
wins  all  hearts  with  her  cheer,  her  ready  sympathy,  and 
her  friendliness.  The  Training  School  kiddies  adore 
their  "joggerfy"  teacher  and  with  good  cause. 

If  we  miss  her  during  her  short  sojourn  at  Wellsboro, 
how  much  more  will  we  miss  her  when  she  leaves  Mans- 
field to  go  out  into  the  wide  world  ?  Good  luck,  Ilba — 
and  may  you  never  forget  your  Alma  Mater,  and  those 
you  are  leaving  behind. 


FLORENCE  BUSTIN 


Towanda,  Pa. 


"Flossie" 


Hockey  Team. 

Tall,  dark  hair,  blue  eyes  and  a  charming  smile — a 
regular  Irish  combination.  We  first  met  "Flossie"  on 
the  hockey  field,  playing  golf  with  a  hockey  stick.  She 
really  is  inclined  to  be  an  athlete,  at  least  one  would 
think  so  when  one  sees  her  shooting  baskets  from  the 
center  of  the  gym  floor.  Though  she  is  always  smiling, 
we  know  she  can  be  serious  sometimes.  We  regret  to 
have  you  leave  us  in  January,  nevertheless,  may  hap- 
piness be  yours  always,  "Flossie." 


GERALD  BURKE  Wilkes-Barre,  Pa. 

Athenaean  Literary  Society. 

"Come  on,  Gerald,  play  for  us."  How  familiar  those 
words  are  to  Gerald.  He  is  one  of  the  Mansfield  State 
students,  always  ready  with  a  contagious  smile.  We 
would  not  say  that  "Studious"  is  Gerald's  middle  name, 
hut  he  certainly  "knows  his  stuff."  Success  to  thee, 
Gerald! 


ANITA  CAESARI  Old  Forge,  Pa. 

Hiking  Club;  Emersonian  Literary  Society. 

A  pretty,  dark-haired,  dark-eyed  lassie  is  our  Nita. 
Tall,  sedate,  a  true  Latin  type.  No  bobbed  hair  for  her. 
Everyone  knows  her,  'specially  her  "roomies,"  who  say 
she  is  just  as  full  of  fun  and  trickery  as  anyone  else. 
Next  time  take  a  good  look  at  her  eyes  and  find  out. 
In  Nita's  eyes  is  mirrored  her  soul. 

All  of  us  wish  her  the  best  of  success  in  her  chosen 
work.     Good  luck,  Nita.

Yes,  Laura,  we  all  like  to  be  happy  and  free  from 
care,  but  our  studies  do  take  up  a  part  of  our  time. 
Could  you  please  tell  us  your  recipe  for  studyin?;?  P"f- 
haps  you  might  apply  for  a  position  in  a  large  high 
school  teaching  the  children  this  recipe. 


ISABEL  CASE 


Troy,  Pa. 


Here's  another  Tiojan,  that  joined  our  ranks.  We 
all  readily  welcomed  her,  as  we  do  all  Trojans,  for  they 
surely  make  the  most  loyal  students. 

We  do  not  know  Isabel  as  well  as  we  wish,  for  she 
does  not  room  in  the  Dorm.  But  her  friends  all  claim 
her  to  be  a  quiet,  studious,  and  fun-loving  girl. 


IREDA  CLEVELAND 


Mansfield,  Pa. 


"Peggie" 


Not  very  short,  not  very  tall;  not  very  thick  and  not 
very  thin;  black  shining  hair  and  big  brown  eyes — that 
is  Freda.  Though  she  is  reserved  and  rather  quiet,  it 
is  only  to  those  who  have  the  privilege  of  knowing  her 
well  that  she  will  let  her  real  self  be  known. 

Although  she  expi esses  her  desire  to  become  a 
teacher,  we  believe  her  fortune  lies  in  another  direction. 
Heie's  wishmg  good  luck  to  Fieda.

Without  faith — what  would  we  do?  And  without 
Faith,  fourth  Floor  would  indeed  be  a  dreary  place.  We 
imagine  that  any  place  would  be  dreary  to  a  certain 
young-  man  in  South  Hall,  if  Faith  were  among  the 
missing. 

Good  luck,  Faith,  may  your  path  of  progress  be  indeed 
a  "Royal"  one. 


FRANCES  COLLINS  Austin,  Pa. 

Y.  W.  C.A. 

We  have  enjoyed  Frances'  humor  and  e.xcellent  dis- 
position. There  is  no  need  to  wonder  why,  for  she  wears 
a  shamrock  on  St.  Patrick's  Day.  Even  though  her  in- 
terests are  divided  between  the  Eastern  Hill  and  the 
several  publications  of  the  village,  she  seems  to  do 
justice  to  both.  Frances  spent  the  first  nine  weeks  in 
Wellsboro,  where  she  won  recognition  as  a  teacher. 

Everyone  wishes  her  the  best  of  luck. 


FERN  COLWELL  Susquehanna,  Pa.

"Yearning  in  desire 

To  follow  knowledge  like  a  sinking  star 
Beyond  the  utmost  bound  of  human  thought." 
Although  Fern  does  not  talk  incessantly  she  knows 
how  to  gain  knowledge,  and  we  all  know  something 
valuable  is  coming  when  she  recites.  Are  you  sure, 
Fern,  that  teaching  is  what  you  want?  Better  make 
sure  before  entering  the  profession  in  earnest.

Years  ago,  when  the  Fates  were  weaving  the  destiny 
of  our  Normal,  they  came  to  the  part  of  their  fabric 
where  something  was  needed  to  <2-ive  it  color.  They  de- 
cided to  weave  a  maiden,  gay,  bright,  beautiful.  The 
mystery  of  dusk  was  imprisoned  in  her  hair,  and  star 
dust  sprinkled  in  her  eyes.     Then  they  gave  us  Ann. 

Although  Ann  spent  her  Junior  year  at  Millersville, 
she  is  now  one  of  us.

Neal  is  a  quiet,  sedate  fellow;  but  he  is  a  real  worker 
as  his  responsible  position  would  indicate.  Neal's  am- 
bition is  to  be  a  journalist,  for  which  he  expects  to 
prepare  himself  by  going:  to  college.  We  all  know  him 
to  be  a  true  and  loyal  friend — ask  Frances,  she'll  tell 
you. 


Tioga,  Pa. 


Combine  pep  and  personality  and  you  have  Marian, 
who  hails  from  near  Mansfield  (perhaps  that  explains 
it).  Every  one  who  knows  her  in  class  and  out  will 
agree  that  she's  100  9r  all  there  and  well  worth  know- 
ing:. 

She  has  already  taught,  and  we  feel  that  success  is 
assured  her.  Her  future?  Well,  we  could  guess,  but 
then  might  be  wrong,  so  we'll  leave  it  to  Fate.  Time

Adelia  is  one  of  our  light-haired,  calm,  quiet  maidens, 
who  always  looks  on  the  bright  side  of  life.  Behind 
those  blue  eyes,  one  never  knows  what  to  expect,  some- 
times they  mean  seriousness,  but  generally  fun  and 
entertainment.  However,  Adelia  never  neglects  her 
work  for  pleasure. 

So  we  wish  this  fair  maiden  of  the  class  of  '27  a  suc- 
cessful and  happy  career  as  a  school  teacher.

tress, "but  now  listen,"  would  not  a  home  mistress  do  as 
well?  We  are  all  prepared,  for  you  never  can  tell.  We

That  professional  air!  Mr.  Felton,  himself,  could  not 
refrain  from  beaming  his  approval  on  it.  Ralph  was 
one  of  our  quiet  boys,  but  when  it  came  to  real,  down- 
right work,  he  was  "weighed  in  the  balance  and  NOT 
found  wanting."  A  loyal  chum,  a  studious  lad,  and  a 
thoroughbred  teacher!  Surely  such  a  classmate  de- 
serves our  heartiest  congratulations  and  sincerest 
wishes  for  the  best  of  success.

also  hard-working  outside  of  school.  She  began  work 
with  us  in  the  summer  of  '24.  Now  we  are  bidding  her

We  know  now  that  good  things  are  done  up  in  small

be  very  quiet,  but  just  wait  until  you  become  acquainted 
with  her.  She  is  full  of  fun  and  is  not  afraid  to  say 
what  she  thinks.  One  could  not  wish  for  a  better 
friend. 

"Her  faults  are  few  and  far  between,

And  when  it  comes  to  dancing 
She  seems  to  take  the  praise.

He  is  best  known  in  the  athletic  world  as  a  prominent 
member  of  the  varsity  baseball  team  and  as  good 
a  basketball  player.  It  has  been  rumored  that  "Gus"

■Who   could    pout   when   they    see    Lena?      Always    a 
cheery  "hello"    and  a  smile  greets   us.     We  know  her 
smile  is  sincere,  because  she  has  a  heart  full  of  kind- 
ness and  thoughtfulnes's.     We  can  just  bet  that  some

she  follows  the  profession,  but  when  we  see  her 
"waitin'  for  the  evenin'  mail,"  we  wonder  just  how  soon 
she  will  begin  a  course  in  homemaking.  She  is  inter- 
terested  in  all  things  pertaining-  to  nature — 'specially

If  you  see  someone  out  hiking  some  cold  morning,  smil- 
ing happily  and  enjoying  herself,  that's  Felicia.  She's 
an  all-around  girl,  but  our  best  recommendation  is  her 
ability  to  make  friends  and  get  along  with  everyone.

rings  and  she  is  seen  hurrying  down  from  fifth  floor 
to  breakfast.  The  only  other  time  she  hurries  is  when 
the  mail  comes  and  she  is  looking  for  a  letter  from — 
well — not  her  brother,  anyway.  Her  calm  and  composed 
manner  serve  her  in  good  stead  in  the  Training  School. 
We  predict  "Georgie"  to  be  a  successful  teacher  m  the 
future.

VINETTA  HEINEY  Montoursville,  Pa. 

Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Outdoor  Club;  Glee  Club. 

Vinetta  shows  fair  promise  of  putting  Montours- 
ville on  the  map. 

Admirable, 

Congenial, 

Unaffected, 

Refined, 

Natural. 

That's  Vinetta.  She  also  possesses  such  a  rare  dis- 
position that  no  one  can  be  blamed  for  admiring  her. 
A  mixture  of  seriousness  and  fun  and  a  good  student. 
We  predict  a  hrig-ht  future  for  her. 


EMILY  HILL 


'Em'

Art    Club;    Hiking    Club;    Outdoor   Club;    Glee    Club. 

There's  a  deal  of  mischief  'neath  t'nis  calm  exterior. 
The  willing  worker,  that's  Emily!  Always  willing  to 
do  everything  she  is  asked  to  do,  and  does  hei'  work 
cheeifully  and  quickly.  It  would  be  ridiculous  io  think 
of  her  shirking  a  duty,  howe_yer  small.  A  good  sport, 
— I'll  say  she  is.  She  never  cared  how  many  trips  she 
had  to  make  to  fifth  floor  to  deliver  telephone  messages, 
uist  as  long  as  they  would  make  someone  happy. 
Wouldn't  life  be  worth  while,  if  alt  our  friends  were 
like  Emily  ?

"Gen" 

Hiking  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

1        "Wlaat's  the  use  of  worrying? 

It  never  was  worth  while. 

So  pack  up   your  troubles 

And  smile,  smile,  smile." 
"Gen"  says,  "to  worry  shortens  one's  life,"  and  she 
intends  to  live  until  she  is  at  least  a  hundred.  It  has 
been  said,  "There's  a  littlp  bit  of  bad  in  every  good  little 
girl,"  and  so  it  is  with  "Gen."  Her  jolly  and  courageous 
spirit  reveals  to  us  a  girl  much  to  ue  desired  as  a  real 
friend   and   companion. 


JEANETTE  HILL 


Johnson  City,  N.  Y. 


Upon  a  visit  to  this  earth,  Venus  discovered  a  child 
slumbering   beneath   a   shadowy   canopy   of  trees. 

"What  a  lovely  child,"  she  exclaimed,  as  she  caress- 
ingly touched  its  cheeks  in  which  there  appeared  two 
beautiful  dimples.  "The  child  is  mortal,"  she  said,  and 
fluttered  away. 

"You  bet,  I'm  mortal,"  said  tbe  child,  awakening;  with 
a  start,  and  it  was  none  other  than  Jeanette  Hill. 

This  happened  a  few  years  ago,  yet  she  is  as  charm- 
ing as  ever  today.  We  wish  Jeanette  success  in  her 
future  vocation.

If  you  need  a  friend,  Gertrude  is  always  ready  to  be 
a  real  one,  sharing  responsibility  as  well  as  pleasure. 
"Study  is  her  middle  name,  but  sometimes  she  gladly 
puts  away  her  work  for  some  genuine  fun.  Studious, 
capable  of  discriminating,  and  sympathetic,  she  will 
surely  succeed  in  teaching.  We  hope  to  hear  from  you 
again,  Gertiude.

RUTH  INGHAM 

Hiking  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Light,  but  not  a  blond;  dark,  but  not  a  brunette; 
that's  Ruth.  Ruth  is  one  of  those  conscientious  teach- 
ers of  Group  II,  and,  though  of  a  serious  type,  can 
enjoy  a  good  time.  She  is  fond  of  music  and  especially 
fond  of  sports;  but  we've  often  noticed  her  ringing  the 
elevator  bell  before  walking  up  to  fourth.  Ruth  is  a 
very  studious  girl,  always  desiring  to  "grow  broad." 
We  feel  quite  sure  she  will  win.

"Laug-h,  and  the  world  laughs  with  you;  weep,  and 
you  weep  alone."  This  just  suits  "Giggles."  Save  when 
a  class  interiupts  now  and  then,  life  to  her  is  just  one 
continuous  joke.  This  failing,  or  rather  virtue,  if  you 
may  call  it  such,  helps  her  out  of  many  tight  places. 
Once  in  awhile  it  gets  her  into  trouble,  but  more  often 
her  ever  prevailing  good  humor  keeps  her  out  of  it. 


RUTH  KLECN

Art  Cub-  Athletic  Club;  Hiking  Club;  Rurban  Club; 
Y.   W.   C.  A. 

"Long  lives  the  merry  heart 
That  laughs  by  night  and  day." 
Wavy  browTi  hair,  and  biovim  eyes,  yet  Ruth  favors 
bright  colors,  especially  "Red."  She  is  always  ready  to 
start  something,  always  on  hand  to  take  part  in  any 
ex<'itement  or  devilment — brimming  over  with  fun  and 
noted  for  hearty  laughter.  Ruth's  jolly  nature  com- 
pels the  love  and  admiration  of  all  her  friends  and,  as 
we  all  know,  these  are  countless. 


ANNABEL  KRISE

Orchestra;  Hiking  Club;  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Clever  ?  Say,  you  "ain't  heard  nothing"  yet.  Pretty  ? 
Yes,  and  what's  more,  pep.  Now  you  have  it,  yes, 
there's  pep  from  the  top  of  her  brown  curly  hair  to  the 
tip  of  her  dancing  feet.  There  are  only  two  things  that 
can  biing  out  this  dreamy  look  in  "Kuykie's"  eyes, 
either  her  fiddle,  or  a  letter  from  Blossburg,  and  even 
then  the  violin  runs  a  close  second.  We  don't  know 
whether  or  not  Mildred  will  ever  be  listed  as  a  foremost 
educator,  but  we  do  know  that  she's  a  "well  Red 
TOoman." 


Mainesburg,  Pa. 

Annabel  is  from  Mainesburg.  She  left  us  in  Januaiy, 
and  we  are  soiry  to  have  lost  her.  She  is  interested  m 
teaching,  but  is  not  sure  about  taking  it  up  for  life,  as 
a  "Strange"  gentleman  may  interfere.  While  here,  she 
cheer  us  with  her  hearty  laugh.  She  puts  us  in  mind  of 
the  fong  "O  Annabel." 

Annabel  loves  walking  so  well  that  she  is  thinking  of 
walking  to  and  from  school  for  exercise  (or  is  it  for 
gym  ? ) .

Mary  is  a  dear,  winsome  lass  loved  by  all  her  ac- 
quaintances. This  little  maiden  with  snappy  eyes  is 
just  brimming  over  with  fun  and  pep.  But  we  know 
she'll  be  a  success,  for  underneath  this  fun-loving  dis-

VIRGINIA  LaFRANCE 


'Gin" 


Meshoppen,  Pa. 


Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club;  Rurban  Club. 

When  we  think  of  "Gin,"  the  first  thing  we  think  of 
her  is  her  sweet,  loving  personality.  She  is  full  of  fun, 
and  is  not  afraid  to  show  it,  for  her  smile  is  an  habitual 
one.  Her  kind,  generous  disposition  has  won  its  way 
into  hearts  of  many  Normalites,  who  will  join  in  wishing: 
her  happiness  in  hei-  future  life.  But,  "Gin,"  if  you  ask 
us,  we  think  you  should  have  chosen  the  Home  Econom- 
ics course.

"Bettie,"  with  the  golden  hair  and  frank  blue  eyes,  is 
sure  to  make  friends  everywhere.  She  has  a  "ready 
smile  for  everyone;  no  matter  where  you  meet  her  she 
is  always  cheerful  and  friendly.  She  is  studious  and 
never  neglects  her  work,  but  that  doesn't  mean  that 
"Bettie"  dislikes  pleasure.  Besides,  ask  "Doree,"  she 
knows.

"Trudy" 

Athletic  Club;  Hiking  Club. 

"Trudy"  has  spent  two  years  with  us  at  Mansfield 
State,  and  we  realize  fully  how  incomplete  our  school 
life  would  have  been  without  her.  Her  charimng  per- 
sonality and  her  true  Irish  wit  have  won  a  Srge  co- 
terie of  f  1  le^ld'^  who  will  always  remember  &r  as  a 
student  teacher,  and  a  ne'er  failing  pal.  We  heCve  loved 
her,  and  we  know  that  when  she  leaves  us  our  loss  is 
someone  else's  gain.  Her  efficiency  proclaims  success, 
but,  neveitheless,  we  say:     "Our  hest  to  you,  Trudy."

Julia  is  an  industrious,  capable,  seemingly  ouiet  young; 
lady,  but  once  you  catch  the  twinkle  in  her  eye  you 
chano'e  your  mind  completely,  for  she  can  laug-h,  giggle, 
make  witty  remarks,  and  above  all  is  an  accomnlished 
tease.  You  ought  to  hear  her  plead  her  ''case!"  We  are 
sure  "Judy"  would  make  a  fine  lawyer  and  an  equally 
grood  teacher.  Our  best  wishes  for  your  success  Julia,

T'rat's    Edith.      With    her   winsome    ways    and    sym- 
pathetic   attitude,    she    has    gained  many  friends  here

ness in  her  future  career.

We  don't  feel  very  well  acquainted  with  "Mugs,"  as

to  complete  her  course. 

Look  at  her!  Doesn't  she  look  prim  ?  "Mugs"  enjoys 
the  out-of-doors,  especially  if  there  are  any  fences  to

"She  is  as  pure  as  the  wind  and  sun; 
And  her  sweetness  endureth  forever." 
Yes,  "Peg"  is  another  representative  of  Erin.  She  is 
like  a  "bit  o'  heaven"  to  us  with  her  ever-ready  wit. 
The  only  time  that  she  is  serious  is  when  she  is  "wait- 
in'  for  the  noon  mail."  Ifs  her  lofty  ideals  and  her  inde- 
pendent way  of  holding  herself  above  unworthy  things 
that  make  us  love  her.  She  is  a  companion  to  be  proud 
of.  The  best  of  luck  to  the  one  who  has  the  makings 
of  a  successful  teacher. 


GERTRUDE  MATTESON

Gertioide  is  one  of  our  Mansfield  girls  about  whom  we

Mann  Creek  would  tell  the  same  story  ?  We  feel  sure 
that  she  vidll  make  a  big  success  at  teaching  or  what-

Yes,  she's  studious,  brilliant,  in  fact,  and  very  ath- 
letic. Dignified?  At  times,  yes.  But  usually  she  is 
F.  O.  D.,  which  translated  into  the  vernacular  means, 
"Full  of  the  Dickens."  All  her  good  qualities  could  not 
be  listed,  because  once  you  become  her  friend  you  are 
always  her  friend.  She  likes  to  tease  us,  and,  we  hope 
she  will  like  teaching.  The  class  wishes  her  all  kinds  of

Agnes.

"Good  things  come  in  small  packages."  I'm  sure 
you'll  find  this  true  in  Mary's  case.  A  first  glance  at 
her  will  make  you  think  she  is  quiet,  shy  and#eserved; 
hut  those  who  know  her  will  tell  you  that  her  merry 
laugh  can  be  heard  during  all  waking  hours.  At  times 
she  becomes  quite  overcome  with  mirth.  Mary  is  our 
idea  of  a  perpetual  giggler.

Folks,  if  you  want  to  meet  an  all-around  girl,  just 
get  acquainted  with  Mildred.  It  isn't  a  hard  matter  and 
you  will  never  regi-et  it.  If  you  want  to  cui-e  your 
blues,  just  pay  a  vsit  to  Mildred's  room.  We  regret 
very  much  that  she  is  a  down-town  girl. 

There  is  a  great  attraction  in  Middlebury  Center  that 
takes  her  home  every  week-end.   We  wonder  what  it  is  ?

Wilkes-Barre."  "Gee!  She's  a  peach;  never  anything 
but  good  natured." 

You  know  that  the  life  of  the  goddess  of  happiness 
has  never  been  written,  because  her  life  isn't  history 
as  yet.  When  The  Piivate  Life  of  the  Goddess  of  Hap-

these  qualities  just  suit  our  "Buddy." 

"Now — go  =  h  da]n  it — if  I  don't  get  a  letter  at  noon, 
I  won't  wi-ite  for  a  week."  Never  mind,  Catharine,  dear,

Naomi — those  who  know  her  best  call  her  "Na."  Like 
her  namesake  of  old  she  is  independent,  resourceful  and 
loyal  to  her  friends.  Is  she  sometimes  bored,  or  is  it 
an  attitude  of  "watchful  waiting?"  At  times  in  class 
she  has  a  triumphant  expression  which  plainly  reads, 
another  letter  finished.  She  isn't  taking  any  chances 
with  life  to  come,  but  is  enjoying  her  crown  of  gold 
here.

What  can  we  say  about  our  "Al"?  Happy,  carefree

drops  everything  is  upon  the  arrival  of  a  letter  or 
telegram  from  Stusquehanna.     We  wonder  why  ?

light Board;  Glee  Club;  Student  Council. 

Who  loves  our  "Dorie"?  A  vast  array  of  friends. 
Why?  If  we  would  speak  lightly,  we'd  say  because 
she's  been  so  eager  to  serve  by  lending  a  pretty  dress, 
the  price  of  a  feed,  or  a  copy  of  a  difficult  paper  we've 
neglected.  We  would  also  say  with  utmost  sincerity, 
because  she  gives  from  her  bounteous  store  charm, 
sympathy,  cheer,  devotion  and  love  to  those  in  need. 
Then  we'd  say  we  love  her  for  her  animated  spirit,  for 
her  generous  nature,  and  her  own  dear  self.  How? 
With  all  our  hearts.

This  young  lady  is  steadfast  and  true,  _^d  may 
always  be  depended  upon  to  put  across  anything  re- 
quired of  her.  She  is  a  diligent  seeker  after  knowledge, 
and  as  a  reward  her  reports  show  that  her  efforts  have 
not  been  in  vain.  She  may  seem  rather  dig-nified  to  a 
casual  I'l  sei'ver,  but  the  occasional  twinkle  in  her  eye 
reveals  to  us  that  she  loves  a  good  time.

Dramatic   Club;   Athletic   Club. 

If  you   can    concentrate    when    she   sits  near  you 
And  whispers  clever  "puns"  into  your  ears — 
If  you  can  keep  your  interest  on  the  teachers 
When  "Reesy"  vows  she's  bored  almost  to  tears — 
If  you  can  watch  her  acting  in  the  limelight 
And  still  think  Julia   Marlowe  reigns  supreme; 
You're  made  of  funny  stuff,  my  fellow. 
The  kind  we've  never  seen!

Here  is  a  friend  who  will  be  loyal  to  the  end,  who 
will  stand  by  through  thick  and  thin.  She  is  one  of  our 
Seniors  who  liked  summer  school  so  well  that  she  came 
three  summers.  They  say  "Brown  eyes  will  always  be 
true"  but  don't  try  them  out  on  too  many  masculinities, 
"Gen,"  or  you  won't  be  teaching  school  long-.  "Gen" 
says    she   likes    Irving   Berlin's   music.     Wonder   why?

It  has  been  proven  that  "Reidy"  is  certainly  an  en- 
tertaining and  "different"  girl.  Listen  to  this,  her 
code:  Work  just  enough;  go  to  classes  if  absolutely 
necessary  but  by  all  means  yawn  when  slightly  bored. 
Never  take  Home  Ec. — too  hard  (bseides  there's  not 
enough  music  and  art  in  this  course),  but  always  feel 
free  to  plan  your  house  of  dreams  in  class!

is  the  one  with  that  broad,  vivacious  "ear  to  ear"  smile. 
We've  never  seen  her  cross  and  we  hope  we  never  shall 
because  that  smile  is  an  inspirational  one.  She  knows 
how  to  work  with  a  will  and  that  makes  her  more 
desirable.  She  is  capable  of  following  any  of  the  fol- 
lowing professions:  teaching,  photography,  or  hovise- 
keeping.

Gladys  entered  the  Home  Economics  course  at  Mans- 
field 'State  in  1924.  The  next  winter  she  taught  and 
decided  that  "common  subjects"  were  more  in  her  line. 
So,  upon  returning-,  she  took  up  Group  II  from  which 
she  was  graduated  in  Januai-y.  We  fear  she  may  wish 
she  had  continued  in  the  Home  Economics  course  else 
why  should  she  be  so  "Happy"  each  day  at  mail  time?

Here's  to  one  of  the  best  of  girls. 

We  know  her  by  the  name  of  "Min." 

Now  "Min"  has  one  besetting  sin, 

She  doesn't  know  which  to  choose 

The  name  of  Smith  or  of  Little  Feather. 

You  may  think  she  is  still 

But  you  never  can  tell  what  -wit  she  has  in  her  little 

"nut  shell." 
We  surely  do  all  love  her 
And  all  do  wish  her  well.

Some  day  in  the  near  future,  when  you  pick  up  the 
Literary  Digest,  and  turn  to  the  page  on  Current 
Poetry,  you  will  be  sure  to  find  a  poem  by  Frances. 
Although  this  is  but  one  of  her  ambitions,  we  are  sure 
she  will  succeed  in  this  one,  as  well  as  being  a  primary 
teacher  or  a  missionary.  Her  fun-loving  nature,  her 
affectionate  ways,  are  sure  to  lead  her  up  the  straight 
path. 

Say  boys,  if  you  want  to  get  on  the  good  side  of 
Frances,  ask  her  to  go  bicycle  riding.

When  it  comes  to  athletics  Marian  is  there.  Pretty,

must  judge  for  yourself.  When  it  comes  to  having  a 
good  time,  Marian  is  with  us.  "Do  everything  you  can

Cheerful,  generous,  and  artistic — that's  Shuman.  He 
was  always  on  hand  to  help  everyone,  especially  the 
"Freshies"  in  need  of  slight  attentions.  He  will  give 
anything  from  his  last  cent  to  his  "roomy's"  shiit  to 
anyone,  especially  to  blondes.  Is  it  any  wonder,  then, 
that  he  is  popular  with  everyone?  Judging  from  the 
way  "Stan"  handled  all  the  art  work,  we  may  predict 
for  him  something  big:  and  if  you  doubt  our  word,  you 
may  ask  "Atwater,"  she  knows.

Our  Jean — the  "heartbreaker"  of  the  S.  I.  G.'s.  She 
is  beloved  by  the  residents  of  both  North  and  South 
Halte.  Her  laughing  eyes  and  sunny  smile  are  very 
contagious  and  we  think  the  slogan  "Laugh  and  the 
world  laughs  with  you"  just  fits  Jean.

We  can  never  forget  Anne,  the  girl  who  is  ever 
bubbling  over  with  laughter.  "You  can  hear  her  before 
you  can  see  her,"  is  the  remark  made  by  all  the 
girls  in  North  Hall.  She  has  a  great  love  for  sports 
and  gymnastics,  especially  folk  dancing.  The  charac- 
teristic which  she  has  developed  to  the  highest  degree 
is  that  of  arguing  for  her  cause.

willing  to  spend  a  few  moments  with  thom,  casting  a

HELENA  HOGAN 


Waverly,  N.  Y. 


When  you're  downhearted  and  blue  and  need  a  good 
''t'al"  just  go  to  Helena.  She  is  bound  to  give  you  a 
cheery  word  and  smile  that  will  help  a  lot.  This 
Waverly  miss  came  to  us  this  year  from  West  Chester, 
which  makes  her  the  more  interesting  to  know.  We 
are  glad  she  prefers  Mansfield  State.  We  know  you'll 
be  successful  in  teaching,  Helena,  and  may  good  luck^ 
■with  you  always.  '

Club;  Baseball,  '25;  Glee  Club;  Red  and  Black  Serenad- 
ers,   '24;  Ambulance  Co.;   Y.  M.  C.  A. 

In  "Russ,"  Mansfield  is  losing  one  of  the  best  tenor 
voices  it  has  heard  in  a  long-  time,  as  well  as  a  strong 
link  in  her  football  chain,  and  a  very  fine  fellow.  Al- 
ways cheerful  and  always  willing  to  help,  "Russ"  is 
liked  by  all,  including  the  faculty  and  Marj.  We  are 
thinking  that  before  long  our  friend  will  be  getting  a 
Cook.     We  wish  him  the  best  in  life.

"Lizzie" 

President  Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Glee  Club;  Art  Club;  Hiking

School  Quarterly. 

Giggles!    Giggles!    Giggles! 
out  unless  you're  immune! 

"Lizzie!" — whom  we  love 
jolly  child,  carefree,  wide  awake,  and  sometimes  sar- 
castic, but  always  sympathetic  and  a  true  friend. 
What  would  the  Presbyterian  choir  be  without  her  deep 
alto  voice?  What  would  foui-th  floor  be — with  "Lizzie" 
gone?     What  would  any  of  us  do  vnthout  her? 


Very   contagious.    Keep

Cecelian  Glee  Club;  Opera,  '26;  Carontawan  Board,

Open  your  doors — oh!  you  fun-lovers!  And  open 
your  doors — you  everlasting  crepe-hangers!  And 
"Maggie"   will    enter.     Who    is    this    "Maggie?" 

A  mirthful  lassie!  A  clever  jester!  A  Gloom  Chaser 
— always. 

Open  your  hearts — oh!  you  carefree!  And  open  your 
hearts — you  perpetual  down-casts.  And  "Maggie"  will 
enter.  Who  is  this  "Maggie?"  "Maggie" — the  gay; 
the  sympathetic;  the  understanding.  "Maggie" — the 
"eveiieadv"  and   eternal   pal.      She  is  "Maggie."

"Jimmie" 

Y.  M.  C.  A.;  Ambulance  Company. 

Here  we  have  another  one  of  the  popular  down-town 
boys.  "Jimmy"  can  give  you  convincins  proof  of  the 
superiority  of  Mansfield  State  over  all  inferior  schooN, 
such  as  State  College.  If  you  want  to  get  the  advice 
of  a  Science  shark,  see  "Jim."    He's  got  the  stuff.

"Pooch" 

Scrub   Basketball,   '25,   '26;    Orchestra;   Y.   M.   C.   A. 

"Pooch"  came  to  us  from  the  thriving  town  of  Elk- 
land  and  has  remained  with  us  for  three  winter  terms. 
He  is  a  real  "pal"  of  the  ladies,  but  his  interests  ex- 
tend outside  Mansfield  State.  We  know,  because 
Lowell  is  said  to  be  taking  a  "Correspondence  Course" 
from  a  nearby  town.  He  also  has  a  keen  interest  in 
some  affairs  down  town. 


HERMAN  BROWN 


Ida  is  one  of  our  members  who  is  not  afraid  of  hard 
work.  No  matter  what  work  needs  to  be  done,  whether 
or  not  it  is  required,  she  is  always  ready  to  help  another 
fellow.  Ida  has  the  advantage  of  lots  of  us  in  other 
ways,  too,  for  she  can  see  over  the  crowd  and  tell  the 
rest  of  us  poor  mortals  what  is  going  on. 

Ida,  we  know  you'll  succeed.

Emersonian  Literary  Society;  Rurban  Club;  Ambu- 
lance Co.;  Flashlight,  '26,  '27;  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

Mathematician?  That's  "Brownie."  We  envy  his 
ability  along  this  line.  Even  though  he  is  a  hard-work- 
ing student,  he  is  always  in  the  midst  of  any  fun  that 
takes  place.  He  has  surely  proven  to  be  a  fine  busi- 
ness  manager  for   our  school  paper  this   year. 

We  know  his  future  will  be  successful,  for  true  merit 
deserves   reward.

"Andy" 

Emersonian  Literary  Society;   Rurban  Club;   Ambu- 
lance Company. 


Another  one  of  the  old  "Science  Gang"  has  come 
back  to  finish  up.  "Andy"  tried  teaching  long  enough 
to  know  that  he  likes  it.  Memories  of  the  Lab  and 
psychology  class  always  reminds  us  of  the  light-haired 
boy  who  could  juggle  the  "ions"  and  "neurons"  to  suit 
himself.     Up  and  Atom  "Andy."

ALLEN  CHAMBERLAIN 


Mansfield,  Pa. 


Athenaean  Literary  Society;  Glee  Club;  Band;  Y. 
M.  C.  A. 

When  you  think  of  Allen,  you  naturally  think  of 
Naomi.  Allen  is  not  so  talkative,  but  he  gets  there 
just  the  same.  As  to  his  ability  as  an  artist,  just  ask 
the  folks  who  have  to  make  graphs  and  posters.  He 
seems  to  enjoy  automobile  riding  and  good  scenery, 
especially  when  it  is  near  Lindley.  Allen  hates  to  be 
called  "Red,"  and  no  wonder,  for  he  doesn't  have  red 
hair. 


DESTA  COLE  Mansfield,  Pa. 

Y.  W.  C.  A. 

'Tis   well   worthwhile   to   cultivate   the   friendship    of 
Desta,  who  stands  true  through  "thick  and  thin."  A  fine 
jovial    nature    lies   hidden   underneath    a    quiet,    modest 
cloak.     Her   industry,   open-mindedness  and   good   com- 
mon sense  will  lead  her  to  success,  we  feel  sure. 
"A  bright  smile, 
A   cheery   gi-eeting. 
And    a    well-prepared    lesson. 
That's  Desta." 
We  shall  hear  great  things  of  Desta,  because  she  has 
already  proved  herself  a  splendid,  alert  Latin  teacher. 


DOROTHY  COPALOWITZ  Sayre,  Pa. 

"Dot" 

Hiking  Club;  Emersonian  Literary  Society. 

"While  there's  life  there's  hope."  We  couldn't  find  a 
more  fitting  statement  for  our  jolly,  little  friend,  "Dot." 
But  life  is  not  all  play  for  her,  for  she  is  always  will- 
ing to  tackle  a  job,  whether  it  be  selling  candy  for  the 
Y.  W.  girls  or  coaching  the  Junior  High  School  girls  in 
basketball.  We  are  sure  that  success  awaits  her,  and 
our  best  wishes  go  with  her. 


GEORGE  CRITTENDEN  Coudersport,  Pa. 

"Crit" 

Rurban  Club;    "M"    Club;    Intramural  Basketball;  Y. 
M.  C.  A. 

Everyone  likes  good-natured  "Crit,"  North  and 
South  Hall  inhabitants  alike.  Why  shouldn't  they  like 
him?  He  likes  them!  George  gets  a  lot  of  fdn  out  of 
life,  but  he  always  does  his  work  except  when  there  has 
been  a  party  the  night  before  to  upset  his  progi'am.  If 
you  know  of  anything  that  might  sell  well  with  the 
students,  don't  try  it  out,  George  has  a  patent  on  it. 
All  evidences  show  that  he  will  make  a  success  at 
teaching,  but  if  he  doesn't,  he  can  always  be  sure  of

Rurban  Ciub;  Intramural  Basketball;  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
Cabinet;  Editor  of  Carontawan,  '26;  Assistant  Ed- 
itor, '27. 

Melville,  who  was  born  in  the  wild,  hard  coal  dis- 
trict of  Taylor,  bloomed  as  a  rose  among'  thorns. 
"Mel"  shook  off  the  yoke  of  this  environment  and  in- 
stead of  cracking:  coal,  now  resembles  the  comnosite 
picture  of  the  ideal  teacher.  He  is  maoring  in  Latin, 
something  other  people  don't  know  too  much  about. 
Melville  has  had  a  controlling;  interest  in  the  Caron- 
tawan for  the  past  two  years  and  the  standard  has 
been  boosted  immeasureably. 


CHARLES  WALTER  DeWITT  Trucksville,  Pa. 

Athenaean  Literarv  Society:  Glee  Club;  President

Hail,  thou  popular  Normalite! 

Charles  recently  had  his  fortune  told — two  happy 
man-iages,  a  brilliant  and  successful  career  were  pre- 
dicted. We  are  convinced  that  he  is  starting  out  O.  K. 
That  you  will  marry — 'nuff  said.  That  you  are  on  the 
road  to  success  is  well  known,  also.  Charles  is  one  of 
the  rare  individuals  who  will  always  do  his  part  and 
do  it  well.  His  talents,  as  shown  by  his  active  partici- 
pation in  the  above  named  clulis  and  his  ability  as  a 
teacher,  are  envied  by  most  of  us.

DANIEL  PETER  HOLLERAN 
"Rusty'' 

Head  Cheer  Leader;  Manager  Baseball;  Band;  "M" 
Club;    Holleran's   Collegians;    Intramural   Basketball. 

In  the  person  of  "Danny"  we  find  one  of  the  most 
intellectual  and  obliging  characters  that  has  ever  in- 
habited the  domains  of  South  Hall.  His  Irish  brogue 
and  supple  feet  make  him  the  attraction  of  all  gather- 
ings. Although  we  lose  a  friend,  the  world  gains  a 
remarkable  orchestra  leader  that  is  sure  to  outshine 
Whiteman.  Well,  "Danny,"  life  is  hard  to  beat,  but 
fi  om  your  performances  on  the  drum,  it  will  be  easy 
for  you. 


RUDOLPH  B.  HOTALEN  Mansfield,  Pa. 

"Rudy"  "Squeedunk" 

Glee  Club;  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

Here  is  he — our  mathematical  genius.  What  Math 
class  would  have  been  without  "Rudy"  to  simplify  the 
intricacies  of  higher  mathematics?  Then,  too,  Rudolph 
has  been  a  great  help  in  Miss  Cornish's  classes  in 
Social  Studies.  When  the  atmosphere  of  the  class- 
room becomes  too  intellectual,  "Rudy"  lightens  the 
situation  with  some  original,  made-to-order  humor.  He 
deseives   his  degiee.

"Eddie" 

Y.  M.  C.  A.  Cabinet;  Student  Council;  Football;  Glee

Carontawan   Board. 

Falling!  Why  that's  Ed's  middle  name,  and  we  are 
all  pleased  that  he  has  cast  his  lot  into  the  teaching 
profession  rather  than   steeple   climbing. 

Recently  a  letter  arrived — Ed.  Kist-er;  but  we're  not 
sure  he  did.  Anyway,  Ed.  admits  he's  one  of  the  "gen- 
tlemen who  prefer  blondes." 

Ed.  is  a  well  known  live  wire,  who  always  "played 
the  g'ame,"  and  our  best  wish  is  success  in  large  quan- 
tities.

Myrle  comes  from  Carbondale,  but  we  can  excuse  him 
for  that,  when  we  come  to  find  out  what  he  can  do. 
In  regard  to  classes — why  he  never  skips  one  when  he 
can't  get  an  excuse.  In  dramatics,  we'll  say  he's  there 
with  bells  on.  Anyway,  we  wish  you  success  in  what- 
ever you  attempt  to  do,  Myrle.

"Art"  "Mose" 


Football  Reserves,  '25,  '26;  Ambulance  Co.;  Y.  M.

"Art"  hails  from  Elkland  up  the  Cowanesque  Valley. 
A  better  pal  and  truer  friend  no  man  ever  had.  Foot- 
ball and  the  fair  sex  are  his  specialties.  Many  fam- 
ous men  have  dwelt  upon  our  campus,  but  few  of  them 
ever  held  a  firmer  hold  on  the  hearts  of  their  class- 
mates than  "Art."  His  qualities  are  many  and  Mans- 
field State  will  lose  a  real  sport  and  comrade  when  he 
leaves  in  June.  May  the  best  of  luck  and  success  be 
yours  "Mose!"

HAROLD   LLOYD 


'Hank" 


Taylor,   Pa. 


Carontawan  Board;  Rurban  Club. 


Anyone  knowing  "Hank"  will  admit  that  a  person 
can't  be  serious  in  his  presence.  His  humor  surpasses, 
l)y  far,  that  of  his  namesake.  (See  Humor  Section.) 
As  a  teacher — well,  the  future  will  tell.  If  he  is  as 
successful  in  the  future  as  he  has  been  here,  the  name 
"Hank"  Lloyd  will  be  on  the  lips  of  all  concerned  with 
education.  Did  you  ever  see  any  of  his  cartoons?  If 
not,  you  have  missed  something.  He  modestly  claims 
he  can  draw  checks  better  than  anything  else.  We 
know  better,  cartooning  is  the  best  of  his  many  ac- 
^complishments.     We  repeat,  the  future  will  tell.

President,  Men's  Council;  Football  Captain,  '25,  '26; 
Basketball;  Baseball;  President  "M"  Club. 

Behold  the  man!  That  he  fullfills  that  unflattering 
statement  was  plainly  shown  in  his  manly  conduct  and 
capable  leadership  on  the  ^•idiron.  his  exemplary  life 
among'  his  fellows,  and  his  executive  ability  in  gaining 
the  co-operation  of  us  in  South  Hall.  He  also  gained 
the  co-operation  of  one  in  North  Hall  last  year.  Jay, 
by  name.  The  influence  of  this  true  athlete  in  athletics 
and  athletic  life  was  keenly  felt  by  all  who  came  in 
contact  with  him  on  the  campus. 


CLARENCE  LORD 


"Squeak" 


Nicholson,  Pa. 


Glee  Club;  Carontawan  Board;  "M"  Club;  Varsity 
Football  and  Basketball;  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

Clarence,  commonly  known  to  his  Mansfield  friends 
as  "Squeak,"  is  a  quiet,  studious  fellow.  He  spends 
much  of  his  time  on  his  studies,  and  devotes  the  rest 
to  making  his  school  better  in  athletics.  On  the  grid- 
iron and  basketball  court  "Squeak"  proved  his  ability. 

The  class  of  '27  sends  its  best  wishes  with  you, 
Clarence. 


DONALD   LOVELESS  Tioga,  Pa. 

"Dunk" 

Football  Reserves,  '24;  Intramural  Basketball;  Y. 
M.  C.  A.;  Carontawan  Board. 

Where  can  a  better  sport  be  found  than  "Dunk?"  We 
wonder!  Wherever  there  is  any  sport  going  on,  be  it 
on  the  football  field,  one  of  the  intramural  basketball 
games,  or  a  little  "horseplay"  in  South  Hall,  "Dunk" 
is  sure  to  be  "Johnny  on  the  spot." 

Don't  get  the  idea  that  he  is  all  fun.  He  has  his 
ser;ous  side  also.  He  has  met  with  success  in  his 
studies,  and  the  Junior  High  Supervisors  will  back  us 
up  in  the  statement  that  he  sure  can  teach.

Qui  est  le  prof esseur  de  Francais  ?  C'est  Monsieur 
Lupien.  "Al"  will  be  a  second  Mr.  Manser  some  day — 
red  hair,  the  knack  of  bawling  out  folks,  and  all!  He 
goes  in  for  all  sorts  of  amateur  athletics  sueh  as  bas- 
ketball and  hockey.  He  is  one  of  the  famous  Siamese 
twins:  for  where  Harold  is — ^there  Al  is  also,  and  vice 
versa.  With  Ruth  to  keep  him  straight  and  by  teach- 
ing French  for  a  living,  he's  sure  to  be  a  success.

"Joe" 

Y.  W.  C.  A.;  Hiking  Club. 

Our  Joe  is  always  neat  and  attractive,  and  we  know 
she  has  many  admirers.  The  Junior  High  School  stu- 
dents are  well  acquainted  with  Miss  Maroney  as  a 
"peppy"  noon-teacher  and  the  Normalites  find  her 
"good  fun."  Just  to  watch  her  smiles  convinces  one 
that  she  goes  in  for  all  kinds  of  fun  and  excitement. 
If  you  want  anybody  to  do  something  for  you,  just 
ask  Joe;  her  policy  is  "Here  I  am,  I'll  help  you."  The 
best  of  luck  to  you,  Joe,  and  we  hope  you'll  come  back 
to  Mansfield   State  some  day.

This  popular  lassie  hails  from  Campbell,  N.  Y,.  and 
Campbell  has  reason  to  be  proud  of  its  representative. 
Her  friendly  disposition,  and  her  kindness  toward  all, 
places  her  high  in  the  estimation  of  everyone  and 
hence  we  hear  it  said  that  she  is  "loved  by  all."  How- 
ever our  admiration  also  turns  to  her  mental  ability, 
for  in  all  classes  she  has  displayed  a  marked  degree  of 
intelligence.  We  know  that  she  will  be  successful,  but, 
with  this  knowledge  we  take  the  privilege-  of  wishing 
iier  the  best  of  luck  and  happiness.

"Cap?"  Oh,  you  know  him!  He's  that  tall,  graceful, 
smiling  chap  who  seems  so  much  at  home  wherever  he 
is — on  the  dance  floor,  in  the  classroom,  or  on  a 
tete-a-tete  with  some  good-looking  young  lady. 

However,  even  with  all  these  accomplishments  "Cap" 
had  time  to  be  manager  of  football  this  year,  and  that 
requires  no  small  amount  of  time.  Ask  anyone  who 
knows!

"Bob"  is  tall,  long,  and  lank.  He  is  very  well  in- 
formed on  most  any  subject  one  wishes  to  bring  up. 
One  youngster  asked  regarding  his  part  in  "Clarence," 
"How  can  you  look  so  dumb  and  yet  know  so  much?" 
"Bob"  has  possibilities  of  a  brilliant  future,  and  we 
wish  him  luck.

This  quiet  little  chap  of  unsurpassed  abilities  has 
proved  his  excellence  in  many  fields  he  has  undertaken 
As  a  saxophonist,  no  one  could  make  sweeter  music. 
As  a  language  instructor,  no  one  could  speak  better 
German.  As  a  manager,  his  work  was  highly  com- 
mendable. We  can  class  George  among  the  mightiest, 
and  hope  these  abilities  will  be  of  gi'eat  value  to  him 
in  his  chosen  field — education. 


She  has  pretty,  brown  eyes  and  a  face  that  is  sweet. 
She  is  quiet  and  reserved  at  times,  and  then  she  is  as 
jolly  and  carefree  as  the  rest  of  us.  Have  you  ever 
needed  any  help  ?  You  will  find  that  she  is  ever  ready 
to  be  a  friend;  she's  true-blue  and  a  person  one  may 
depend  upon.  Besides  she  is  bright,  a  good  student, 
and  liked  by  all.     So  here's  to  Edna.

student  while  he  has  been  with  us.  He  has  never 
bothered  the  deans  in  social  aifairs  with  the  girls.     He 

has  to  answer  to  another  dean — his  wdfe!  Neverthe- 
less he  has  been  a  faithful  friend  to  us  all. 

We  wish  him  the  greatest  success  in  life,  in  memory

Little,  good-natured,  pretty  curly  hair,  and  one  of

He  is!  ambitious  and  studious,  and  would  you  believe

Chauncey,  with  his  "fiddle"  is  quite  a  "howling  suc- 
cess," so  I  ain  told  by  other  inmates  of  third  floor. 
His  success  is  ceitain.  All  we  can  say  is  "Good  luck, 
God  bless  you,"  and  buy  a  pound  of  rice.

Such  hair — dazzling!  Such  eyes — flashing!  Such 
lovable  ways!  A  sweet  smile,  winning  dimples — even 
one  in  her  chin.     Beware!     An  imp  lurks  within. 

Interesting?     I'll  say  so! 

A  teacher?     A  whiz! 

A  pal  ?     Always. 

Absolutely  irresistible!  Is  it  "Faming  Youth?"  Yes!

Lo!  and  behold!  the  conscientious  young  man!  That 
is  why  few  of  us  know  or  realize  his  merits,  but, 
nevertheless,  he  has  them.  Quiet?  Not  necessarily. 
He  is  just  so  serious  about  his  work  that  he  fools  the 
public,  for  he  really  does  his  share  of  fun  making. 
Outside  of  teaching  his  chief  aim  is  to  some  day  "own 
a  Butler."  Here's  wishing  you  the  best  of  luck  in 
both,  Ward. 

Ward  is  also  fond  of  soft-boiled  eggs.

"Elmira"

"Elmira"  has  picked  the  honors  and  knowledg-e  from 
the  highest  branches  of  the  tree  called  success. 

This  little  maiden  is  modest  and  quiet,  with  a  win- 
ning way.  She  has  been  much  liked  in  the  Junior 
High  School  as  a  student  teacher.  Her  ability  to 
teach  is  assuied.  We  i)redict  a  bright  future  for  "El- 
mira," and  wish  her  heaps  of  succops.

La  RUE  STAJVTON 


"Rue" 


Mansfield,  Pa. 


LaRue  is  one  of  our  quiet,  resei'ved  students.  Is  he 
always  thus  ?  I  should  say  not.  Haven't  you  ever 
seen  him  play  baseball  ?  Well  if  you  have,  you  vi^on't 
say  he  is  very  reserved,  because  when  on  the  diamond, 
the  opposing  team  is  fully  aware  of  his  presence. 

What  the  future  holds  in  store  for  LaRue  we  can 
not  predict,  for,  of  course,  only  time  will  tell,  but 
present  indications  show  that  everything  will  come  well 
for  him.

What   is   he?      Actor,   Vegetarian   or   Magician? 

There  is  no  doubt  in  our  minds  but  that  he  is  an 
actor  as  he  demonstrated  his  ability  last  year  in  "Sev- 
enteen" and  "The  Other  One."  Mr.  Balch  will  also  tes- 
tify that  his  an  actor.  Some  say  he  is  a  vegetarian  be^ 
cause  he  likes  the  gi-ass  so  well. 

Still  greater  numbers  witnessed  his  ability  as  a 
magician  in  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Minstrels  last  fall.  Who 
didn't  shudder  as  he  ran  the  hat  pins  into  his  arm 
and  how  many  have  shivered  as  they  saw  him  driving 
a  pin  into  his  knee?

We,  that  are  left,  can't  help  but  almost  wish  Emily 
did  not  graduate  this  year.  We,  who  know  her  and 
have  worked  with  her,  realize  what  a  worthy  friend 
she  has  been  to  us  all.  Beneath  her  quiet  and  loving 
manner  she  is  endowed  with  a  wonderful  executive 
ability  by  which  she  will  be  sure  to  realize  our  dreams 
for  her.  We  haven't  the  least  doubt,  but  that  she  will 
be  as  faithful  as  an  "Oak." 

Good  luck,  Emily.

who  doesn't  let  the  cares  of  the  world  maku  him  round- 
shouldered.  After  all  is  said  and  done,  even  the  ladies 
would  have  missed  him  had  he  not  chosen  to  become; 
one  of  us.  v\\

"Grunt"  is  a  good,  all-around  fellow.  His  popularity

With  "Grunt"  at  the  helm,  it  is  not  necessary  to  say

This  modest  lady  hails  from  Scranton.  but  we  love 
her  just  the  same.  Don't  let  her  fool  you — she's  not  the 
shy  creature  she  would  make  you  believe.  In  an  un- 
assuming way  she  has  made  lots  of  friends,  and  gets 
along  with  the  whole  world.  And  did  you  say  ideas, 
opinions   and   knowledge?      All  we   can   say   is: 

"Still  they  gazed  and  still 

The  wonder  grew 

That    one   small   head    should 

Carry  all  she  knew."

but  she  is  filled  to  overflowing  with  the  qualities  that 
go  to  make  up  a  girl  "whom  all  must  love  because  they 
must." 

She  can  make  good  bread,  as  well  as  fudges.  She 
can  sew  with  skill  and  has  an  eye  for  dust.  She'll  win 
the  best  that  life  can  hold  in  store.

"Ebbie"  is  calm,  good  natured,  and  a  jolly  good  fel- 
low. Even  the  dignities  of  being  the  President  of  the 
Girls'  Student  Council  were  not  enough  to  ruffle  her 
serenity.  We  all  love  "Ebbie"  and  no  one  regrets 
having  elected  her  for  our  president,  as  she  was  fair 
and  square  to  everyone  concerned.  In  addition  to  her

est and  most  sincere.  Does  she  like  good  eats  ?  Indeed, 
yes,  and  can  make  good  things  that  will  tempt  anyone.

Of  course,  we  all  know  "Peg,"  especially  those  on

good  nature,  humor  and  fun  are  not  limited  to  fat  people. 
"Peg"  is  very  much  interested  in  all  athletics,  but  stars 
in  dancing.  All  of  her  interests  are  not  centered  in

optimism  is  very  contagious.  She  is  most  insistent 
about  cheering  people  on  their  way  by  waving  to  them

carries  out  the  saying  that  "great  things  come  in  small 
packages."  An  excellent  student  and  a  good  teacher. 
She  has  the  right  amount  of  ambition  and  perseverance 
that  will  bring  her  success  in  her  chosen  profession. 
Best  of  luck  is  the  sincere  wish  of  her  classmates.

We  can  always  depend  on  her  to  dance  with  us  between 
classes.  Florence  is  sure  to  be  successful  in  life,  for 
with  her  love  for  fun  is  mixed  seriousness,  sincerity,

as  well  as  music  and  sometimes  we  wonder  whether 
she  will  be  a  Music  Supervisor  or  an  interior  decorator.

Business  ?  Yes,  we  have  a  few  busy  places  in  South 
Hall.  In  fact  a  glance  into  Room  20  at  almost  any  time 
will  reveal  a  veritable  hive  of  business  industry.  Fred 
resides  there  and  you  may  be  certain  that  he  is  engaged 
in  some  musical  enterprise — except,  of  course,  when 
he  is  making  a  study  of  North  Hall.  He  has  been  a 
most  faithful  member  of  the  orchestra  and  band,  to 
which  organizations  he  has  contributed  a  most  unusual 
instrument,  the  bass  clarinet.  Next  year  his  fine,  clear 
baritone  voice  will  be  missed  by  the  glee  club — in  fact, 
we  hate  to  see  Fred  leave.

"Come  and  see  her  as  she  stands, 
Crimson  roses  in  her  hands; 

And  her  eyes 
Are  as  dark  as  Southern  night, 
Yet    than    Southern    dawn    more    brig^ht." 
"Anne"  is  in  music   and  personality  a  genius   and   a 
favorite.     She  delights  all  with  her  clear,  sweet  voice 
and  readiness  to  play  any  of  her  chosen  instruments. 
As  for  Anna's  teaching  ability,  that  is  unquestioned  ,

Our  blonde  "Betty"  needs  no  introduction,  as  she  is 
one  of  the  fun-loving  girls  of  North  Hall.  "Betty"  is 
tiny,  lovable,  and  good  natured,  all  of  wliich  have  helped 
to  make  many  friends  for  her  in  South  Hall  as  well  as 
in  North  Hall.  Her  happy  smile,  and  the  enthusiasm 
she  puts  into  anything  she  attempts,  insures  her  success 
as  a  model  Music  "Sup."

you  want  the  truth,  go  to  "Lil."  Also  in  "420"  you  will 
find  the  most  delicious  of  feeds.  Is  Lillian  a  cook? 
We'll  say  she  is.  She  loves  to  dance  and  have  a  good 
time  and  her  witty  nature  makes  her  welcome  any- 
w'here.  She  likes  to  teach  the  Training  School  "cher-

"Henry,"  has  been  a  loyal  worker  in  our  department. 
All  the  corresponding  secretary  work  for  Mrs.  Stead- 
man  just  naturally  falls  on  "Henry's"  shoulders,  be- 
cause she  is  our  star  typist.  This  lady  has  a  pair  of

He's  quite  a  fellow  and  he  holds  the  distinction  of 
keeping  what  he  knows  under  his  hat,  which  is  saying 
a  great  deal.  Athletics  are  not  his  "forte"  exactly,  but 
he  has  played  at  a  far  more  thrilling  and  fascinating 
game.  As  we  have  hinted.  Royal  has  "Faith"  in  the 
North  Hallites.  We  are  not  prophets,  but  we  predict 
that  Royal  will  be  successful  in  his  chosen  profession.

ber of  the  famous  Red  and  Black  Serenaders.  His 
activities  range  from  the  rendering  of  a  cornet  solo  tn 
drecting  the  songs  in  the  "Y"  meetings.  The  latter  w. 
might  say  he  does  with  care  and  grace.  Roy  poj^sesse'?

"Laush  and  the  world  laughs  with  you,"  is  Avah's 
motto.  We  are  sure  that  she  will  go  through  the  world 
in  good  cheer,  and  even  to  California  in  the  same  mood. 
Ask  Avah.  Avah  is  full  of  "pep"  and  likes  fun  and  good 
eats — but  her  studies  come  first.  We  always  know  that 
a  good  time  is  lurking  somewhere  when  we  hear  the

Avah  came  here  in  1927  to  work  for  the  degree  of

of  the  fact  that  she  doesn't  believe  in  bachelors,  we 
know  t'nat  she  will  succeed.

"Windy"  is  one  of  those  immortal  Red  and  Black 
Serenaders.  In  fact,  he  is  a  wonder  on  the  sax.  When 
you  feel  blue,  go  to  "Windy"  and  he  will  have  you 
laughing  in  a  second.  Besides  being  a  Music  Super- 
visor he  has  wonderful  talent  as  a  comedian.  More 
power  to  you  "Windy"  in  all  your  lines  of  work  and 
our  last  wish  is  that  you  live  all  the  days  of  your  life. 


GLADYS  NICHOLS 


Wellsboro,  Pa. 


Gladys  is  a  product  of  the  big  league,  having  come 
to  us  from  Syracuse  University.  She  is  truly  a  re- 
markable girl.  Realizing  that  she  is  a  member  of 
"Beach's  Sorority"  it  is  no  wonder  that  she  loves  to 
dance  and  enjoy  herself,  but  the  marvel  is  that  she 
also  finds  plenty  of  time  and  energy  to  expend  in 
studying.  Surely  a  mystery  girl,  but  absolutely  so  on 
all  week-ends.  What  has  Welhboro  to  offer  that  Mans-

more  from  that  course  than  our  old  friend — the  Sun. 
Jimmie  has  grit,  as  anyone,  who  has  seen  him  play  foot-

you  in  the  future,  Jimmie.

WILLARD   ACKLEY 


'Pop" 


Mansfield,   Pa. 


There  are  two  kinds  of  men — those  who  do  things 
and  those  who  sit  by  and  ask  why  it  wasn't  done  some 
other  way.  Willard  is  one  of  those  who  does  things  and 
does  them  without  waiting  for  the  bleachers  to  be  full 
before  he  starts.  In  class  he  has  the  faculty  of  weigh- 
ing all  sides  of  the  matter.  His  judgment  is  good,  his 
decisions  well-made  and  his  usual  silence  is  due  to 
thoughts  rather  than  the  lack  of  them. 


ELIZABETH  M.  BATES

If  you're  looking  for  a  good  time,  just  call  on  "Betty." 
Where  could  we  find  a  better,  all-around  sport  ? 

"Betty"  has  been  teaching  for  the  last  two  years,  and 
has  come  back  to  us  this  year. 

We  are  glad  and  proud  that  you  have  been  with  us,

EVA  BERDAJVIER 

"Eva"

Eva  is  one  of  the  first  to  come  back  for  the  fourth 
year.  She  must  be  very  fond  of  Mansfield  State,  and 
we're  sure  Mansfield  is  proud  of  her.  Eva  is  one  of 
those  girls  who  is  "bottled  up  fun  and  humor."  She  can 
make  anyone  laugh  and  giggle  without  apparent  ef- 
fort. She  is  saucy,  impish,  but — strange  to  say,  can 
well  be  the  serious  senior  and  assistant  librarian.

GEORGE  McCABE 

Y.  M.  C.  A. 

George  is  the  kind  that  is  always  bound  to  make  a 
success  in  life,  for  he  is  a  worker.  He  has  S||ayed  at 
Mansfield  State  for  four  years.  They  were  fm.r  years 
well  spent,  George,  and  we  know  that  you  have  really 
earned  your  degree.  We  expect  to  hear  "big  things  from 
Geoi-ge.     The  world  needs  more  of  his  kind.

Our  Alma  Mater  must  hold  a  deep  place  in  Anna's 
heart.  She  was  graduated  from  he]  e  in  '25,  again  in 
'26,  and  has  come  back  for  her  fourth  year  to  receive 
the  golden  degree  of  B.  S.  from  old  Mansfield  State 
Somebody  has  said  that  if  Ann's  smiles  were  dollais 
she  would  be  a  capitalist.  We  believe  it  is  true.  Her 
willingness  to  help  and  make  others  happy  has  left  an 
indelible  print  upon  us. 


MYRTLE   ALTHEA   MYERS  Mansfield,   Pa. 

(Mrs.  John   F.  Myers) 

We  think  she  works  so  very  hard  in  order  that  she 
may  not  get  overweight.  It  is  hard  work  to  keep  all 
giades  up  to  90  or  above.  Lives  down-town — also  lives 
with  her  husband.  Drives  a  Chrysler  and  plays  a  'cello 
in  the  orchestra.     She  directs  a  children's  orchestra. 

"She's  a  little  prarie  flower" — born  out  in  Nebraska! 


FRANCES  OGDEN  SMITH

"And  thou  are  worthy;  full  of  power; 
As    gentle;    liberal    minded,    great, 
Consistent,    wearing    all    that    weight 
Of  learning,  lightly,  like  a  flower." 
Nowhere  could  we  find  a  more  earnest  and  persever- 
ing worker  than  Mrs.  Smith.    She  was  graduated  in  '25 
with  high  honors,  and  has  returned  to  us  this  year.   We 
are  glad  to  have  had  her  with  us.

Joe,  a  jolly  fellow,  always  ready  for  a  good  time, 
came  back  to  us  this  year  to  get  a  degree.  Of  course 
we  are  all  glad  to  see  him  again  as  he  was  one  of  our 
hardest  hitting  line  men,  and  he  sure  made  his  mark 
on  some  of  his  oppongnts.  Joe  is  one  of  the  best 
natured,  most  steady,  and  most  dependable  fellows 
that  we  have  known  here.    Good  luck  to  you  Joe.

We  find  this  modern  "Minerva"  one  of  the  most  de- 
manded persons  in  the  school.  She  seems  to  have  the 
knack  of  doing  thing-s,  whether  it  be  teaching  Bacteri- 
ology to  a  group  of  nurses,  planning  a  party  for  a  club 
organization,  or  talking.  "Bee  Dee"  is  being-  graduated 
in  the  field  of  Home  Economics.  We  feel  the  stress 
placed  on  the  broader  side  of  that  education — Home- 
making — will  be  duly  appreciated  by  her  in  the  future.

ALICE  S.  HALLOCK  Shavertown,  Pa. 

Alice  is  a  young  miss  from  eastern  Pennsylvania.  She 
is  tall,  graceful,  with  a  wealth  of  curly  brown  hair, 
"growing  out,"  and  a  face  which  expresses  her  chang- 
ing moods — everything  from  wistfulness  to  concentra- 
tion. 

Concentration — Alice  is  concentration  personified! 
When  her  head  is  bent  studiously  over  a  book  all  the 
allurements  of  the  world  cannot  draw  her  away.  Her 
effort  is  rewarded  by  a  vast  wealth  of  knowledge  to 
take  to  her  girls  next  year.  Girls,  yes!  She  is  to  be  a 
leader  of  girls  in  Home  Economics.

welcome  at  her  friends — of  which  she  has  many 

She  is  quick,  intelligent,  ambitions,  and  peise\ermg 
We  wish  that  she  boarded  in  the  "dorm,"  so  that  we 
could  know  more  of  her.

Leo  is  very  versatile  in  his  accomplishments.  He  is 
a  hard  worker  and  a  successful  student — always  on 
the  job.  He  believes  in  having  a  good  time,  too,  and 
is  always  ready  for  a  little  fun.  He  is  quiet,  straight- 
forward, and  is  well   liked  by  all  who  know  him. 


MARGARET  ESTHER  DOUD  Mansfield,  Pa.

Margaret  is  another  one  of  our  alumni  who  came 
hack  for  her  fourth  year.  You  surely  chose  a  good 
class   to  come  back  to,   Margaret. 

When  Margaret  dances,  she  is  the  personification  of 
grace.  When  she  plays,  others  simply  can't  help 
dancing. 

Margaret  is  always  full  of  "pep,"  and  ready  to  try 
something  new.  We're  sure  that  she'll  make  a  "hit" 
wherever  she  goes. 


RUTH  KOHLER  Gaines,  Pa. 

Art  Club;  Music  Supervisor;  Glee  Club;  Orchestra. 

Ruth  thinks  chiefly  along  the  lines  of  "Fine  Arts."  If 
it's  music — Ruth  is  sure  to  be  there.  If  it's  sketching 
or  painting  that  you  want,  just  call  on  Ruth. 

We  hear  that  she  likes  "Churches,"  too.  What  about 
it,  Ruth? 

Ruth  was  a  graduate  in  '25  and  came  to  us  this  year 
for  her  degree. 


BERNITA  HELEN  POWERS

We  are  sure  that  Bemita  will  make  a  successful

his  criticism  on  the  other  fellow's  girl  is  admirable. 

Bill  is  clever  and  his  broad  smiles  and  experiences  win

President  Emersonian  Literary  Society,  '27;  Editorial

in  Mansfield  his  interests  have  been  centered  in  Mathe- 
matics and  in  "business"  trips  home. 

Perhaps  Earle's  greatest  failing  is  that  he  can't  for-

Ronald  came  back  to  us  at  the  begining  of  the  second

Carontawan  accorded  to  him  the  title,  "The  Down- 
town Sheik."  This  year  "Ronnie"  wishes  it  known  that 
he  has  relinquished  that  title.  The  cause  is  a  proper 
noun,  feminine  gender,  singular  number,  a  ^  particular 
person  and  a  possessive  "case."  We  wish  him  success 
in  this  "case"  and  every  other  good  effort  he  makes.

ories. We  give  three  cheers  for  "Hutch,"  a  good  sport 
and  a  clever  conversationalist;  I  mean,  the  girl  doesn't 
have  to  think  of  ways  of  keeping  the  conversation  go- 
ing. "Hutch's"  motto  is  "Be  on  time,"  and  we  know  he 
pi-actices  what  he  preaches.  Jersey  will  always  wel- 
come him  back  as  a  teacher  or  as  a  visitor. 


CARL  NEWELL 


Knoxville.  Pa. 

Vice  President  Junior  Class,  '24;  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Cabinet 
'24;  President  Dramatic  Club,  '26;  Chairman  Senior 
Prom,  '26;  Carontawan  Board,  '26;  Flashlight  Staff,  '26. 

This  chap  needs  no  introduction.  We  all  know  him 
as  a  gallant  knight  who  has  achieved  many  conquests 
at  Mansfield  and  who  promises  to  gain  great  victories 
in  the  future.  As  a  teacher,  "Bob,"  we  envy  you.  As 
a  man,  we  honor  you,  and  a;s  a  friend,  we  treasure  you. 


GLADYS  PEET 


Knoxville,  Pa. 


This  quiet,  studious  girl  is  well  liked  by  all  who  know 
her.  Whether  it  is  work  or  play,  Gladys  has  the  faculty 
of  doing   either   with   ease   and   enthusiasm. 

The  fact  that  Gladys  is  a  post  graduate  is  sufficient 
proof  of  her  ambition  and  ability. 


NORMAN  SAYRE 


Plains,  Pa. 


This  boy  looks  "collegiate."  Get  the  innocent  ex- 
pression in  the  picture?  He  is  endov/ed  with  more 
than  the  average  run  of  mind  because  he  always  "re- 
turns" for  more  intellectual  exposui'e.  He  knows  a 
good  bit  concerning  most  everything  and  never  hesi- 
tates to  express  his  opinion.  "Norm"  begins  to  show 
tendencies  of  becoming  a  base  soloist,  but  laying  all 
jokes  aside,  we  think  he  will  take  his  place  among  the 
"Profs"  some  day.

(O  EPTEMBER  8,  1925  stands  out  in  our  memory  as  one  of  the  big  "red  letter" 
(j_3  days  of  our  life.  It  was  then  that  many  of  us  had  our  first  glimpse  of  the 
stately  buildings  standing  like  sentinels  on  the  wide  and  luxuriant  campus  of 
Mansfield  State  Normal.  It  was  the  beginninj?  of  a  new  life.  We  were  in  a  new 
environment,  strange  but  wonderful.  New  friends,  new  duties,  school  activities  and 
a  desire  to  progress  drove  away  our  loneliness  and  made  us  "that  happy,  industrious 
freshman  Class."  To  show  our  good  will  and  generosity  a  dance  was  given  which 
proved  to  be  one  of  the  biggest,  best  and  most  enjoyable  affairsi  of  the  year.  With  all 
our  work,  pleasure  and  thrill  of  college  life,  the  year  literally  flew  by  and  before  we 
realized  it  we  were  on  our  way  home  for  the  summer  vacation.  There  was  much 
sadness  mingled  with  our  happiness  for  we  had  parted  with  many  of  our  senior 
friends,  perhaps  never  to  meet  again. 

A  year  has  passed  and  we  have  returned  as  the  first  sophomore  class.  True, 
we  are  small  in  number,  but  then,  it  is  better  to  have  quality  than  quantity.  This 
time  our  hearts  are  gladdened  by  famliar  scenes  and  faces;  we  are  again  living  the 
life  we  have  learned  to  love;  learning  the  things  we  desire  to  know,  and  in  so  doing 
feel  that  we  are  on  the  right  road  to  success.  We  have  found  our  school  life  to  hold 
numerous  opportunities  and  responsibilities  which  we  have  met  and  grasped  to  the 
best  of  our  judgment. 

As  we  look  back  over  these  school  days  we  are  filled  with  both  joy  and 
sorrow.  We  have  passed  the  half-way  mark  of  our  school  days  at  Mansfield.  Soon 
we  will  be  on  the  last  part  of  the  journey  where  we  must  assume  larger  duties  and 
greater  responsibilities,  in  the  meantime  proving  ourselves  worthy  of  the  places  we 
are  to  fill  in  life. 

As  the  year  ends  we  must  look  forward  to  the  parting  with  old  friends  and 
fa'zulty.  To  the  Seniors  we  bid  "Farewell,"  and  wish  them  the  best  of  luck  and 
success;  to  the  others  we  bid  "Adieu"  and  may  we  see  you  all  again  this  coming  year. 
For  the  faculty  we  have  but  praise  and  good  wishes.  Every  member  has  helped  us  to 
gain  the  things  we  most  need  and  to  brighten  our  road  to  higher  education.  We 
thank  them  one  and  all. 


''On  energy  and  ambition  depends  success."

/T  IS  PLEASANT  to  recall  our  first  glimpse  of  ^'The  Little  Town  on  the  Hill"— 
Mansfield  Normal.  The  multi-lighted  windows  sending  shafts  through  the 
gloom  and  terror  of  the  unknown  seemingly  beckoned  us  onward.  Thrilled  by 
the  thought  that  we  were  entering  upon  the  threshold  of  higher  education,  the  great 
stone  buildings  gave  strength  to  our  weakened  resolutions.  Of  course,  we  did  not 
know  that  this  feeling  of  moroseness  is  common  to  all  new  arrivals.  Nor  did  we 
realize  that  others  have  thrilled  as  we,  and  thus  we  felt  ourselves  to  be  the  possessors 
of  a  great  and  valuable  privilege.  We  have  retained  that  thought  through  the  first 
part  of  our  Mansfield  Normal  life. 

We  can  never  forget  the  dilemma  in  which  we  found  oiirselves  as  we  en- 
deavored to  locate  elusive  classrooms.  Then  the  upperclassmen  took  an  iron  hand  in 
our  affairs  and  we  "gieenies"  were  forced  to  mark  time  to  spirited  music  in  shape  of 
strict  Freshman  rules.  As  time  went  by  the  despairs  of  a  Fteshman  grew  milder — 
the  terrible  upperclassmen  became  the  friends  and  pals  we  had  never  hoped  to  possess 
and  we  were  received  into  a  great  fellowship. 

We  have  come  to  realize  the  larger  duties  and  responsibilities  that  necessarily 
are  a  part  of  an  education,  and  a  part  of  the  great  profession  into  which  we  are  enter- 
ing. Our  obligations  are  to  those  Seniors  who  have  guided  us,  and  given  us  the  vicarious 
experiences  needed  to  navigate  a  hard  and  rocky  course.  We  also  extend  our  sincere 
good  wishes  to  the  faculty  for  the  sympathy  and  patience  they  spent  on  an  apparently 
hopeless  mass.  To  all  these  we  give  our  unalleviated  thanks,  and  wish  those  leaving 
these  home-like  walls  Godspeed.  — H.  C.  S.,  '30.

FOOTBALL — the  greatest  of  all  sports  for  developing  in  young  men  self-con- 
fidence, self-control,  endurance,  and  good  spoitsmanship.  The  man  who  can 
take  a  punch  in  football,  get  up  and  grin,  and  fight  all  the  harder — it  is  he  who 
will  win  in  the  game  of  life.  Tho  game-,  of  life  could  easily  be  compared  to  the  game 
of  football  in  that  they  both  call  for  qualities  looked  for  in  men  of  today:  endurance, 
self-confidence,  self-control,  co-opeiation.  These  are  all  necessary  in  either  game. 
We  are  all  bound  to  give  most  of  the  credit  to  our  winning  team  of  1927,  the  varsity, 
but  we  cannot  overlook  the  work  of  our  reserve  team  through  whose  effort  it  was 
made  possible  to  have  a  successful  season.  They  are  the  ones  who  might  be  expected 
to  become  discouraged,  but  no  one  ever  heard  any  comment  from  them.  School  spirit 
and  honor  accomplishes  much  where  other  things  may  fail.  Summing  up  our  1927 
football  season  it  can  be  said  that  it  was  favorable  in  all  respects.  We  had  the  most 
co-operation,  both  with  the  faculty,  and  the  student  body,  that  has  been  given  to  any 
team  since  athletics  were  sarted   at  Mansfield   State. 


Page  One  Hundred  Forty-three 


MANSFIELD— 12 


WELLSBORO— 0 


The  first  game  of  the  year  found  our  boys  in  poor  condition.  Wellsboro 
brought  a  good  team  here  and  played  hard  to  win.  The  first  three  periods  were  score- 
less, but  in  the  last  period  the  boys  opened  up  and  shoved  across  two  touchdowns.  It 
was  a  very  poor  exhibition  of  football  and  things  did  not  look  very  encouraging  for 
the  season. 


MANSFIELD— 69 


WILKES  BARRE— 0 


The  second  game  of  the  season  was  also  a  home  game.  The  boys  showed  a 
complete  reverse  of  form.  The  Wilkes-Barre  Athletic  Club  had  a  better  team  than 
did  Wellsboro,  but  could  do  nothing  against  our  stone-wall  defense  while  our  boys 
opened  holes  for  large  gains.  In  the  latter  part  of  the  game  Mansfield  opened 
with  forward  passes  which  completely  bafi'led  the  visitors.  This  game  showed  what 
Mansfield  State  could  really  do.     Lloyd,  Hill  and  Allis  starred  for  Mansfield. 


MANSFIELD— 0 


SLIPPERY    ROCK— 4.5 


The  next  game  found  Mansfield  State  traveling  to  Slippery  Rock.  The  game 
opened  with  Mansfield  kicking.  Slippery  Rock  took  the  ball  at  mid-field  and  im- 
mediately began  a  march  down  the  field,  pushing  the  ball  over  for  a  touchdown.  This 
took  what  heart  Mansfield  had  left  as  they  were  a  beaten  team  before  they  went  on 
the  field.  There  was  nothing  that  could  be  done  against  Slippery  Rock  then.  The 
boys  all  fought  hard  but  more  touchdowns  were  scored  and  Mansfield  was  beaten  45-0. 
Slippery  Rock  had  a  wonderful  team.  One  could  expect  little  more  from  our  team 
after  havin°-  traveled  280  miles  in  buses. 


MANSFIELD— 21 


DICKINSON— 13 


Dickinson  Seminary  came  here  on  October  23.  our  Parents  Day,  expecting  to 
take  home  the  bacon.  They  had  an  enviable  record,  having-  scored  a  victory  over 
Pranklin  and  Marshall  Frosh,  a  tie  with  Bucknell  Frosh  and  tied  with  Cornell  Frosh. 
It  was  a  wonderful  day  and  the  boys  felt  like  playing,  as  there  were  about  3000  people 
here  to  see  the  game.  The  game  opened  with  Dickinson  kicking.  Kelly  received  the 
ball  and  ran  it  back  to  Dickinson's  35  yard  line.  Here  Mansfield  tried  a  pass  and  it 
was  intercepted.  Dickinson  made  a  long  end  run  which  put  the  ball  in  scoring  position, 
and  carried  it  over  on  the  next  play.  Score  7-0,  favor  Dickinson.  Dickinson  kicked 
to  Mansfield  as  the  quarter  ended.  Mansfield  put  over  a  touchdown  in  the  second 
quarter.  Score  7-7.  A  half  minute  to  play,  Mansfield  kicked  to  Dickinson.  Dickinson 
man  runs  length  of  field  for  touchdown.     Score  13-7  favor  Dickinson  at  half. 

Mansfield  opened  the  third  quarter  with  a  rush  and  Hill  plunged  over  for  a 
touchdown.  Lloyd  kicked  point.  Seminary  could  not  hold  the  boys  in  the  last  period 
and  they  went  over  for  the  last  score  of  the  game.  Score  21-13.  Mansfield  made  twelve 
first  downs  to  Seminary's  nine.     Kelly,  Burr,  Lloyd  and  Hill  starred. 


J'dge  One  Hundred  Forty-lour 


MANSFIELD— 26 


KEYSTONE— 0 


Keystone  came  to  Mansfield  with  the  expectation  of  a  big  victory  but  were 
sadly  disappointed.  Our  boys  showed  the  fight  which  has  always  been  characteristic 
of  them  and  Keystone  could  do  nothing-  against  our  stonewall  line.  Keystone  held  the 
boys  to  a  7-0  level  in  the  first  half,  but  as  the  second  half  opened  it  was  a  new  team 
on  the  field.  They  completely  bewildered  the  Academy  boys  and  rushed  through  them 
at  will.  The  game  was  a  little  rough  at  times,  but  our  boys  showed  true  sportsman- 
ship all  through  the  game.     Lloyd  and  Hill  starred  for  Mansfield. 


MANSFIELD— 7 


CORTLAND— 7 


Mansfield  went  to  Cortland  determined  to  bring  back  a  victory.  In  the  first 
half  neither  side  was  able  to  score,  Mansfield  having  an  edge  on  the  playing,  however. 
Cortland  came  back  strong  and  by  a  poor  kick  was  able  to  get  the  ball  on  Mansfield's 
30  yard  line.  Here  they  showed  fight  and  took  the  ball  down  to  the  one-yard  line 
where  they  took  it  over  on  the  fourth  down.  The  last  quarter  opened  with  the  score 
7-0,  in  favor  of  Cortland.  Mansfield  marched  down  the  field  and  made  a  forward  pass 
on  the  30-yard  line  for  a  touchdown.  Hill  to  Lloyd,  beautifully  executed.  Lloyd  kicked 
the  extra  point.  As  the  game  ended  Mansfield  was  marching"  for  another  touchdown 
and  was  in  easy  scoring  position.  They  wei'e  not  notified  as  to  time  and  had  to  be 
satisfied  with  a  tie  game.  Mansfield  made  17  first  downs  to  eight  for  Cortland.  Lloyd 
and  Worthington  played  well  for  Mansfield. 


SILAS  MANFORD  LLOYD,  Captain 
Position,  Halfback.     Height,  5  feet  9  inches.     Weight  160. 

Manford,  energetic,  decisive,  a  veritable  tornado  on  the  gridiron  and  ofl'.  Silas 
has  been  a  successful  captain  and  leader  for  two  years,  bringing  the  boys  through  his 
last  year  to  the  most  victorious  season  Mansfield  State  ever  had.  "Lloydie"  is  a  triple 
threat  man  as  an  athlete  and  student.  To  pick  an  outstanding  game  in  which  he 
starred  is  not  an  easy  task  because  Silas  starred  in  them  all.  But  in  the  Keystone 
game  he  went  the  Galloping  Ghost  one  better,  flashing  steadily  into  brilliant  runs,  line 
hucks,  kicks  and  passes.  Someone  said  his  girl  was  at  the  game.  Manford  leaves  us 
this  year  after  making  wonderful  all-round  athletic  history.  We  are  all  his  pals  and 
our  only  consolation  in  his  absence  is  that  he'll  make  good  wherever  he  goes. 

EDWARD  HILL 
Position,  Quarterback.    Height  5  feet  7  inches.    Weight  145 

Edward  Hill,  familiarly  known  as  "Eddie"  or  "Hilly"  occupied  the  position  of 
quarterback,  and  a  nifty  quarter  he  made.  Five  feet,  seven  inches  tall,  and  weighing 
145  pounds,  he  filled  the  position  to  excellent  advantage.  "Eddie"  had  a  quick  brain 
and  was  sure  to  pick  out  the  weak  spots  of  the  enemy  and  this  always  spelled  greater 
yardage.  He  never  wore  a  headgear  and  his  blonde  locks  could  be  seen  bobbing  up  and 
down  as  he  barked  signals  or  pepped  up  his  team  by  a  word  here  or  a  slap  there.  He 
was  a  fast  ball  carrier,  could  pass  and  receive  well  and  was  an  invaluable  all  around 
man.  "Eddie"  has  one  more  year  at  Mansfield  and  we  expect  bigger  things  than  ever 
from  him  next  year.     Best  of  luck  and  success  to  a  heady  ball  player.

FRANKLYN   WHITMER 
Position,  Tackle.     Height  5  feet  10  inclies.     Weight  170. 

A  mainstay  of  the  football  machine  that  worked  better  than  ever  before.  For 
"three  seasons  "Lefty"  gave  his  best  to  uphold  the  honor  and  gloi-y  of  his  school.  He 
has  a  character  fitting  to  him,  a  gentleman  and  a  scholar.  Honor  and  determination 
are  the  high  points  of  his  make-up.  "Lefty"  knew  how  to  give  and  take  and  do  it 
cleanly.  No  matter  what  happened  he  never  bowed.  He  knew  that  it  is  not  losing 
but  quitting  that  is  a  sin.  His  gridiron  struggles  at  Mansfield  are  over.  We  know 
Franklyn  Whitmer  will  win  in  the  "Battle  of  Life,"  just  as  he  did  while  battling  beside 
his  pals  of  the  football  team. 

EARL  MUDGE 
Position,  Guard.     Height  5  feet  10  inches.     Weight  185. 

"Horse."  This  is  Earl's  nickname.  Perhaps  you  think  he  acquired  it  by  con- 
tinually singing  that  old  song  "Horses,  Horses."  No,  Mudge  always  played  a  "horse 
of  a  game."  That's  why  all  the  football  men  say  "Hello  Horse."  Earl  is  close  to  the 
ideal  as  a  football  player.  He  isn't  so  spectacular;  he's  not  a  grandstand  player,  but  a 
hard,  clean,  consistent  playei- — always  fighting  for  the  team.  Much  more  mig-ht  be 
said  of  "Horse."  He  is  Captain-elect  of  the  Mansfield  State  Normal  School  football 
team  for  1927,  an  honor  which  few  men  have  a  chance  to  enjoy. 

CLARENCE  LORD 
Position,  End.     Height,  5  feet  11  inches.     Weight  155. 

"Squeak,"  is  one  of  the  fellows  hailing  from  Nicholson,  who  has  shown 
superior  athletic  abilities.  Words  cannot  express  his  method  of  breaking  the  inter- 
ference and  knocking  the  old  "pig  skin"  down.  His  excellent  character  is  admired  by 
all.  Clean  sport — we'll  say  he  is.  He'll  take  a  knock  and  not  grumble  but  watch  the 
backfield  the  next  play.  "Squeak"  is  a  fellow  who  will  be  missed  by  all,  and  he  will 
always  be  remembered  by  the  gang'.     Here's  luck  to  him  for  always. 

HENRY  OBELKEVICH 
Position,  Tackle.     Height,  5  feet  10  inches.     Weight  160. 

"Obie,"  the  fellow  that  hits  the  line  hard.  He  is  not  so  large,  but  his  spirit 
has  made  him  invaluable.  "Obie"  comes  from  Throop.  There  is  no  particular  game 
in  which  he  starred — he  starred  in  all  of  them.  His  actions  around  school  show  him 
to  be  a  gentleman  and  his  work  on  the  football  field  prove  his  worth  as  an  athlete.  No 
one  can  compare  with  "Obie"  when  it  comes  to  clean  sportsmanship.  The  man  next 
to  him  in  the  line  could  depend  on  him  at  all  times.  Here's  luck  to  you,  "Obie" — all 
the  gang  are  for  you. 

GROVER  WORTHINGTON 
Position,  Halfback.     Height,  5  feet  7  inches.     Weight  165. 

"Grunt,"  Muncy  Valley's  contribution  to  our  athletics,  has  proved  himself  an 
all  around  athlete,  excelling  in  football.  "Grunt's"  natural  ability  for  football  placed 
him  in  the  varsity  backfield  in  his  first  year  here,  and  for  two  years  afterward  he  has 
competed  against  and  outplayed  excellent  new  material  that  has  come  to  our  school, 
making  his  berth  in  our  backfield  secure.  His  presence  in  the  game  gave  his  team- 
mates confidence  because  they  knew  that  he  would  give  his  last  bit  so  they  all  might 
win.  Special  mention  must  be  made  of  his  playing  against  Cortland,  our  hardest 
opposing  team  of  the  year.

Position,  Tackle. 


RUSSELL  ALDEN 
Height,  6  feet  lyi  inches. 


Weight  195. 


Alden  hails  ft'om  Nicholson.  His  nickname  "Bull"  characterizes  his  wonderful 
charging'  and  tackling.  Because  of  the  important  position  he  occupied  on  the  team,  it 
took  a  good  man  to  fulfill  the  expectations  of  players  and  coaches.  "Russ"  did  this. 
Thei'e  is  no  doubt  in  our  minds  that  when  he  leaves  school  in  the  Spring  Mansfield 
State  will  lose  one  of  the  best  tackles  it  ever  possessed.  Alden  is  a  three  letter  man 
in  football  and  has  more  than  won  this  honor.  He  is  a  true  sportsman  and  is  always 
consistent  in  his  playing.  We  are  sorry  you  are  leaving,  "Russ,"  but  we  know  you  will 
continue  true  sportsmanship  throughout  life. 


HOWARD  BURR 
Position,  End.     Height,  5  feet  8  inches. 


Weight  143. 


You  would  never  pick  "Bucky"  Burr  as  a  football  man  when  you  saw  him  off 
the  field.  He's  a  living  example  of  the  saying  that  "the  best  things  often  come  in 
small  packages."  The  opposing  quarterback  found,  after  he  had  sent  a  few  would-be 
sweeps  around  "Bucky's"  end  of  the  line,  that  he  had  sized-up  "Bucky"  wrongly. 
Fighting-  spirit,  speed,  and  brains  mixed  with  gentlemanly  conduct,  on  and  otf  the 
field,  characterizes  "Bucky."     And  he's  back  next  year,  too,  Mansfield. 

CARLTON  HARKNESS 
Position,  End.     Height,  5  feet  10  inches.     Weight  150. 

"Doc"  is  a  product  of  Mansfield  and  certainly  one  of  whom  to  be  proud.  As 
he  starred  at  Mansfield  High  School  so  did  he  star  on  the  Normal  team.  "Doc's"  athletic 
prowess,  coupled  with  his  ability  to  pull  down  passes  and  to  tackle  made  him  one  of 
Mansfield  State's  best  grid  men  both  on  the  offensive  and  defensive.  He  was  one  of 
the  "three  (horses"  on  the  right  side  of  Mansfield's  "wall"  and  certainly  lived  up  to 
the  reputation.  Because  of  injuries  "Doc"  was  out  of  the  last  few  games,  but  he  has 
another  year  here. 

DONALD   WATSON 
Position,  Center.     Height  5  feet  10  inches.     Weight   180. 

"Tubby"  came  to  us  from  Athens,  and  they  may  well  be  proud  of  their 
product.  This  was  "Tubby's"  third  year  as  varsity  center  and  certainly  he  played  his 
position  well.  He  was  an  accurate  ball  tosser  and  could  tear  a  hole  in  the  line.  It 
would  be  hard  to  pick  out  Tubby's  best  games  as  he  did  so  well  in  all  of  them.  We  are 
sorry  that  this  is  his"  last  year  here  for  his  absence  is  going  to  leave  a  big  hole  in  the 
teann,  but  wherever  he  goes  we  hope  he  will  have  as  much  success  as  he  has  had  on 
the  gridiron.     Best  of  luck  and  success  to  a  good  sport  and  football  player. 


Position,  End. 


LEO  ALLIS 

Height  5  feet  6  inches. 


Weight  170. 


Leo  is  a  product  of  Mansfield  High  School,  where  he  starred  before  coming  to 
Mansfield  State.  At  the  first  of  the  season  he  was  placed  at  his  old  position  at  guard 
but  Coach  Russell  saw  possibilities  of  an  end  or  backfield  man.  He  was  placed  at  end 
where  he  played  a  wonderful  brand  of  football.  He  is  a  hard  tackier,  can  pull  down 
passes  and  is  good  on  both  defensive  and  offensive.  Leo  was  unable  to  show  his  stuff 
to  the  best  advantage  because  of  injuries  received  the  first  of  the  season.  He  has 
another  year  at  Mansfield  and  we  expect  bigger  things  than  ever  from  him.

WILLARD  ACKLEY 
Position,  End.     Height,  5  feet  8  inches.     Weight  170. 

Here's'  to  the  man  who  fights  and  wins.  We  mean  "Pop"  Ackley.  He  proved 
i.0  us  that  he  could  play  football  just  as  well  as  he  sings.  While  Willard  was  in  the 
backfield  he  played  a  good  game,  but  when  he  was  shifted  to  end — well,  he  did  things, 
tbings  which  only  a  fighting  and  hard-working  man  can  do.  When  he  tackled,  the 
opponent  knew  that  something  had  hit  him.  Ackley  is  leaving  us  this  year  and  we 
expect  to  hear  big  things  of  him  in  the  near  future. 

WELDON  WOODWORTH 
Position,  Fullback.    Height  5  feet  11  inches.    Weight  180. 

"Woody,"  who  hails  from  Potter  County,  laid  aside  his  axe  and  proved  his 
woi'th  upon  the  gi-idiron  by  his  ability  as  a  line-bucker.  Many  moons  have  passed 
since  Mansfield  State  has  had  a  chap  of  "Woody's"  spirit,  fight  and  ability  in  the 
fullback  position.  Woody's  ability  to  buck  the  line  made  him  one  of  the  most  valuable 
men,  on  ths  team.  May  he  be  the  shining  light  next  year  as  this.  Best  of  luck  and 
success  to  a  good  player. 

STANLEY  ALLEN 
Position,  Halfback.    Height,  5  feet  6  inches.    Weight  145. 

"Shorty"  came  to  us  from  Scranton  where  the  little  boy  was  accustomed  to 
show  them  up  at  the  Technical  High  School.  We'll  admit  Ihe  isn't  very  big,  but  neither 
is  dynamite.  He  started  out  hard  at  the  beginning  of  the  season,  but  unfortunately 
injuries  put  him  out  of  the  game  for  the  latter  half.  His  short  stocky  build  is  ideal  for 
a  bac!kfield  man,  as  they  can't  be  too  close  to  the  ground.  We  expect  him  to  "strut 
his  stuff"  next  season. 

LEONARD  TRACE 
Position,  Guard.     Height  5  feet  11  inches.     Weight  170. 

"Firp,"  with  a  strong  physique,  hails  from  Newport  High  School,  Luzerne 
County.  He  was  a  new  man  reporting  for  the  team,  but  it  didn't  take  long  before 
Coach  "Ed."'  Russell  had  picked  him  as  a  tower  of  strength  for  our  line.  "Firp"  is  a 
boy  of  few  words  while  in  the  game,  but  was  found  to  be  pretty  reliable  when  it  came 
to  action.  We  also  found  him  a  man  who  at  all  times  displayed  good  sportsmanship. 
We  expect  to  hear  more  of  him  next  fall. 

GEORGE  CRITTENDEN 
Position,  Quarterback.     Height,  5  feet  9  inches.     Weight  160. 

George  hails  from  Coudeisport  and  he  surely  had  that  never-say-die  spirit. 
He  has  been  with  us  for  three  years  and  has  given  his  best  to  make  the  teams  here  the 
best  possible.  His  position  was  a  varied  one  as  Coach  Russell  saw  fit  to  change  him 
from  backfield  to  end  where  he  performed  well.  George's  ability  to  punt  was  one  of 
his  strong  points.  This  is  George's  last  year  with  us  and  we  are  sorry  to  see  him  go, 
but  we  send  him  off  with  best  wishes  for  luck  and  success. 

JOSEPH  YURKEWITCH 
Position,  Guard.  Height,  5  feet  8  inches.  Weight  170. 
"Joe"  is  from  Elkland.  We  think  Coach  Russell  regrets  his  mistake  of  letting 
one  of  the  best  guards  Mansfield  State  has  ever  seen  in  action,  sit  on  the  bench  for 
two  seasons.  "Joe"  did  not  get  a  chance  to  show  his  stuff  until  this  year,  but  when 
he  did  he  ceitainly  did  tear  up  the  line.  His  fighting  spirit  and  his  ability  to  diagnose 
plays  made  him  one  of  the  most  valuable  linemen  of  the  year.

//))  These  three  things  are  fundamental  in  the  make-up  of  a  winning  team.  The 
team  of  1927  did  not  win  the  State  Championship  but  the  fault  can  not  be 
placed  on  anyone.  Old  Bad  Luck  was  on  the  trail  of  the  team  for  the  larger  part 
of  the  season.  Over-confidence  caused  defeat  when  victory  was  apparently  within 
reach.  Coach  Marvin  worked  gallantly  with  the  boys  and  they  should  have  had  an- 
other State  Championship.  The  season  ended  with  five  wins  and  four  defeats.  All 
the  players  will  be  back  next  year  so  they  will  bear  watching.  Nothing  less  than  a 
State  Championship  will  satisfy  them.

MAJVSFIELD— 24 


KENNEDY    VALVE— 25 


The  first  game  of  the  season  was  played  at  home  against  the  Kennedy  Valve 
team  of  Elmira,  N.  Y.  Coach  Marvin  played  all  letter  men  in  this  game  and  they 
showed  up  well  considering  that  it  was  the  first  game  of  the  season.  Mansfield's 
defeat  was  entirely  due  to  their  inability  to  register  shots.  The  passing  was  clever 
and  baffled  the  boys  from  Elmira  who  depended  wholly  upon  long  shots,  which 
enabled  them  to  win  by  one  point.     Lloyd  and  Kelly  played  well  for  Mansfield. 


MANSFIELD— .39 


LOCK    HAVEN— .5 


The  second  game  was  played  at  Lock  Haven.  Lock  Haven  was  no  match  for 
the  Red  and  Black  passers  who  soon  ran  up  a  score  on  them.  Lock  Haven  was  held 
to  three  points  in  the  first  half  and  kept  without  a  field  goal  until  the  last  minute  of 
play,  when  a  Lock  Haven  guard  tossed  the  ball  in  the  basket  for  their  only  two-pointer 
of  the  game.     The  Red  and  Blacks  played  an  excellent  game. 


MANSFIELD— 24 


ST.  THOMAS  COLLEGE— 60 


The  next  game  of  this  trip  was  played  at  Scranton  against  the  crack  St. 
Thomas  College  outfit.  Mansfield  was  outclassed  and  outplayed.  The  boys  all  played 
hard  and  well  but  to  no  avail.  They  were  up  against  a  more  experienced  team.  This 
soon  showed  as  the  score  continued  to  run  higher  and  higher.  St.  Thomas  had  a  fast 
working  outfit  and  were  going  on  all  five.  Mansfield  played  their  usual  hard  and 
steady  game  but  could  not  cope  w^th  the  dazzling  and  speedy  passes  and  shots  of  the 
college  boys.  The  boys  were  not  disgraced,  by  any  means,  and  showed  up  wonderfully 
well  under  such,  conditions.  Lloyd  played  his  usual  steady  game  and  was  high  scorer 
for  Mansfield. 


MANSFIELD— 32 


STROUDSBURG— 35 


Stroudsburg  came  to  Mansfield  expecting  an  easy  win,  but  were  disappointed 
as  far  as  the  easy  part  was  concerned.  Mansfield  started  the  game  with  a  rush  and 
soon  had  what  was  thought  to  be  a  comfortable  lead.  Stroudsburg  soon  came  to  the 
conclusion  that  they  had  underestimated  our  team.  They  began  to  fight  but  were  not 
allowed  to  go  far.  They  kept  the  score  about  even,  however.  In  the  second  half  the 
score  seesawed  back  and  forth,  first  one  in  front,  then  the  other.  It  was  anyone's 
game.  Secor,  pivot  man  for  Strouds,  was  the  thorn  in  the  side  of  Mansfield  State. 
Time  after  time  he  would  reach  up  with  his  six  feet  seven  and  tip  the  ball  in  the 
basket.  This  was  what  spelled  defeat  for  Mansfield.  Mansfield  led  until  about  two 
minutes  before  the  end  of  the  game  when  successive  baskets  placed  Strouds  in  the 
lead  which  was  never  overcome.

MANSFIELD— 29 


DICKINSON— 16 


Dickinson  came  to  Mansfield  with  expectations  of  winning  and  carrying  home 
the  bacon  in  revenge  for  the  football  defeat.  They  were  tall,  rangy  men,  but  the  Red 
and  Blacks  completely  baffled  them  with  their  passes  and  time  after  time  broke 
through  their  defense.  The  game  was  rather  slow  but  was  interesting.  The  jinx 
seemed  to  be  broken  at  the  expense  of  Dickinson  as  the  score  stood  29-16  in  our  favor 
as  the  last  whistle  was  blown.  This  game  marked  the  return  of  our  former  Captain 
and  star  "Skeeter"  Brace,  who  showed  up  well.  Miller  was  the  oustanding  star  of 
the  game.     He  gathered  19  points  for  high  scorer  of  the  evening. 


MANSFIELD— 35 


ALUMNI— 11 


The  Alumni  game  is  an  annual  affair  during  basketball  season  and  the  "Old 
Grads"  almost  always  put  up  a  good  battle,  for  part  of  the  game  anyway.  The 
Alumni  held  the  Red  and  Blacks  in  the  first  quarter  but  were  soon  winded  and  were 
lost  against  the  superior  and  faster  playing  of  the  under  graduates.  It  was  a  game 
full  of  thrills,  pants,  and  heaves,  and  was  enjoyed  by  everyone.  The  Alumni  are  a 
good  crowd  of  sports  and  it  is  always  a  pleasure  to  play  against  them. 


MANSFIELD— 16 


BLOOMSBURG— 22 


Due  to  a  mix-up  in  the  schedule  Bloomsburg  and  Dickinson  were  slated  to 
play  Mansfield  the  same  evening.  This  was  overcome  by  having  Bloomsburg  play 
here  in  the  afternoon  and  sending  the  Red  and  Blacks  to  Dickinson  in  the  evening. 
Coach  Marvin  started  a  second  string  crew  against  Bloom,  thinking  to  save  the  varsity 
for  the  evening  contest.  The  first  half  ended  with  the  score  10-9  in  favor  of  Blooms- 
confidence  and  the  game  ended  in  favor  of  Bloomsburg.  It  was  a  poor  exhibition  of 
burg.  Then  the  coach  put  in  the  varsity  who  completely  lost  themselves  in  over- 
basketball.    Woodworth  played  well  for  Mansfield. 


MANSFIELD— 25 


DICKINSON— 27 


Mansfield  journeyed  to  Dickinson  for  the  second  game  of  the  day  determined 
to  avenge,  to  a  certain  extent,  the  defeat  handed  them  by  Bloomsburg.  They  were  a 
rejuvenated  team  and  led  Dickinson  throughout  the  entire  contest.  They  played  and 
passed  better  than  Dickinson,  but  were  unable  to  make  their  shots  count.  The  boys 
all  played  a  stellar  brand  of  ball  and  we  have  only  praise  for  them.  Two  games  in  a 
day  is  discouraging  and  the  losing  of  both  is  still  more  so.

MANSFIELD— 71 


LOCK   HAVEN— 8 


The  return  game  with  Lock  Haven  was  played  on  the  local  gym  floor  and 
it  resulted  in  a  landslide  for  the  Red  and  Blacks.  It  seemed  as  though  Mansfield  had 
at  last  struck  its  customary  stride.  If  all  games  were  played  as  this  was  played 
there  would  be  little  doubt  as  to  the  place  Mansfield  would  have  as  State  Champions 
of  1927  as  they  were  in  1926.  The  first  half  ended  30-4,  everyone  on  the  team  scoring 
at  least  one  point.  Woodwoith  was  high  scorer  in  the  game  with  22  points.  He  was 
closely  followed  by  Sorber  with  20  and  Brace  with  16. 


MANSFIELD— 28 


KEYSTONE— 2.5 


The  last  game  of  the  1927  season  was  played  at  home  against  Keystone 
A.cademy.  Keystone  had  the  reputation  of  being  a  good  team  that  always  lost  out 
by  two  or  three  points  and  lived  up  to  their  reputation.  They  had  a  fine  working 
team  and  showed  up  well.  Keystone  led  at  the  half  10-9  but  Mansfield  came  back 
strongly  and  soon  evened  things  up.  Mansfield's  attack  was  very  different  from  Key- 
stone's in  that  Mansfield  took  thei  ball  up  the  floor  with  fast,  short  passes,  while 
Keystone  went  more  slowly  and  took  more  long  shots.  Brace  was  high  scorer  of  the 
game  with  13  points.  This  ended  our  basketball  season  and  we  now  hit  the  trail  for 
baseball. 


■Page  One  Hundred  Fifty-two 


FRANCES  KELLY,  Guard 

Kelly  was  elected  captain  of  the  1926  basketball  team.  This  is  an  honor  for 
which  few  men  can  hope  as  all  can  not  be  captains.  He  has  held  down  the  guard 
position  for  two  years  with  credit  to  himself  and  is  also  a  consistent  scorer.  He 
shows  nothing  that  is  spectacular  but  is  always  a  steady  and  heady  player,  doing  the 
right  thing  at  the  right  time.  Kelly  is  an  all  around  athlete  playing  football,  basket- 
ball and  baseball.  His  ambition  is  in  baseball  and  we  wish  him  all  kinds  of  luck  and 
success. 


HAROLD  BRACE,  Forward 

"Skeeter,"  otherwise  known  as  "Joe  College"  came  back  to  us  at  the  be- 
ginning of  the  second  semester  after  attending-  Illinois  for  a  half  year.  Having  two 
years  of  varsity  experience  he  immediately  assumed  his  old  position  at  right  forward. 
Here  he  starred  as  usual.  Although  he  is  small  his  speed,  skill  and  experience  place 
him  among  the  first  of  our  team. 


STANLEY  ALLEN,  Guard 

"Stan"  came  to  us  from  Scranton  Tech  with  a  reputation  as  a  good  basket- 
ball man.  He  surely  lived  up  to  his  reputation  at  Mansfield  State  and  came  through 
with  a  good  record  for  the  season.  "Stan"  is  a  little  fellow  but  his  heady  playing 
and  fighting  spirit  kept  him  going  continually.  This  is  "Stan's"  first  year  at  Mansfield 
State  and  we  expect  bigger  things  from  him  next  year. 


LEO  ALLIS,  Guard 

Leo  is  a  product  of  the  Mansfield  High.  He  was  one  of  the  fastest  men  on 
the  squad  and  also  one  of  the  smallest.  He  has  held  down  the  guard  position  for  two 
years  and  the  way  he  kept  opposing  forwards  from  running  up  scores  has  been  a 
great  credit  to  him  and  to  the  team.  Leo  will  be  back  next  year  and  we  expect  to 
see  him  tear  them  up  on  the  gridiron  and  also  in  the  gymnasium.  Best  of  luck,  Leo. 
We  are  all  for  you. 


Page  One  Hundred  Fifty-three 


WELDON  WOODWORTH,  Center 

Too  much  cannot  be  said  about  "Our  Weldon."  He  was  the  best  center 
playing  under  the  Red  and  Blaclv  colors  in  nearly  the  last  decade.  This  year  he 
ranked  second  to  none  for  high  scoring  honors.  This  is  sure  a  credit  to  any  player, 
especially  one  who  helped  to  develop  team  work  as  he  did.  This  is  "Woodie's"  first 
year  at  Mansfield  and  we  are  fortunate  in  having  him  vnth  us  again  next  year.  Here 
is  wishing  you  success  in  everything  "Woodie."     Let's   see  some   more  fight. 


PAUL  MILLER,  Forward 

Paul's  first  year  at  varsity  basketball  was  a  good  one.  He  was  third  in 
scoring  with  a  season's  total  of  58  points.  He  was  an  all-around  player  on  the  squad, 
shifting  from  forward  to  center  and  sometimes  to  guard.  He  handled  all  these  posi- 
tions remarkably  well.  Paul  is  one  of  the  best  forwards  ever  developed  at  Mansfield 
State  and  we  are  all  pioud  of  him.  He  has  the  honor  of  being-  captain-elect  for  next 
year.  We  know  he  will  live  up  to  this  and  fight  his  hardest  to  put  Mansfield  State 
where  it  belongs  in  the  athletic  world. 


ARTHUR  SORBER,  Forward 

"Dead-Eye  Dick"  in  all  his  glory  could  never  hold  candles  to  "Art"  when  it 
came  to  shooting-.  However  our  "Speed  Demon"  is  not  of.  the  same  shooting  type  as 
"Dead-Eye."  "Flash"  does  his  shooting  on  the  basketball  court.  A  peep  at  this 
coal  miner  as  he  stands  in  the  center  of  the  floor  and  sinks  the  ball  repeatedly  proves 
his  ability.  Making  long  shots,  however,  is  not  the  only  thing  that  this  lad  can  do 
with  deadly  accuracy  for  he  cuts  and  passes  equally  as  well.  These  aualities  earned 
him  a  position  as  forward  on  the  varsity  squad  and  he  certainly  was  a  great  help  to 
the  team  during  the  whole   season.

rHE  GIRLS'  STUDENT  COUNCIL  when  oft'  times  spoken  of  suggests  to  many 
a  group  of  only  six  members.  True  it  is  there  are  six  of  us  who  have  been 
chosen,  not  because  we  wished  it,  but  because  the  majority  of  the  student 
body  so  desired  that  we  lead  them  in  the  carrying  out  of  this  big  problem  of  Self 
Government.  So,  therefore,  the  Student  Council  is  only  a  medium  through  which  the 
ideals  of  conduct,  scholarship,  and  character,  for  which  Mansfield  State  Normal  stands, 
are  transmitted  to  the  students. 

This  year  instead  of  each  council  solving  its  problems  alone  we  have  had 
joint  meetings  and  tried  to  work  out  the  best  plan  for  each  one  concerned.  As  a  result 
we  feel  our  plans  met  with  great  success  in  the  building  and  the  attainment  of  a 
better  sense  of  responsibility  on  the  part  of  each  student. 

By  co-operating  thus  with  the  Boys'  Student  Council  we  have  assumed  the 
responsibility  of  directing  the  gymnasium  socials  as .  well  as  the  general  atmosphere 
about  the  school.  The  special  dances  and  parties  given  throughout  the  year  afforded 
proof  that  we  are  interested  in  social  development,  as  well  as  quiet  halls  at  night. 
Much  of  the  success  of  this  year's  work  has  been  due  to  the  interest  and  guidance  of 
Dean  Gerlach  as  well  as  the  splendid  spirit  of  co-operation  shovioi  by  the  girls.  Many 
thanks  to  each  one  who  has  helped  to  make  our  school  year  one  of  success  and 
happiness.  Words  can  scarcely  express  our  appreciation.  Although  we  have  not 
reached  a  perfect  goal  in  Student  Government  we  earnestly  hope  that  the  work  will 
be  carried  on  by  our  successors  and  we  wish  them  good  luck. 

— Evelyn   Halstead. 


rHROUGH  VARIOUS  EFFORTS  and  through  gradual  development  our  Student 
Government  has  at  last  evolved  into  an  organization  which  has  nearly  full 
control  of  the  discipline  and  activities  of  our  school  life.  In  the  Spring  of 
each  year  the  student  body  elects  its  officers  for  the  Councils  of  the  following  year. 
These  officers  compose  the  Council  which  meets  regularly.  The  Men's  Council  meets 
with  the  Girl's  Council,  once  a  week,  to  discuss  any  problems  which  may  arise. 

The  men  attend  a  weekly  meeting  at  which  time  they  may  make  suggestions 
for  the  betterment  of  the  school  and  its  student  body.  These  meetins  are  not 
monotonous  or  boresome  as  there  is  always  something  new  and  interesting  arising. 
The  purpose  of  the  Men's  Council  is  to  impress  upon  those  whoi  seem  to  have  a  wrong 
conception  of  their  relations  to  society,  the  desirability  and  necessity  of  obeying  the 
laws  which  govern  the  place  in  which  they  live,  and  to  do  this  as  inoffensively  as 
possible.  We  have  worked  hard  to  overcome  former  difficulties  of  the  association  and 
also  to  improve  conditions  of  the  school  for  men  and  women.  Any  success  that  we 
may  have  achieved  in  either  field  is  due  to  the  splendid  co-operation  of  all  men  and 
our  Dean,  Mr.  Balch.  — Manford  Lloyd.

yW.  C.  A.  What  a  lot  is  said  ini  these,  four  symbols  and  how  much  it  means  to 
a  many  of  us  who  have  received  so  much  help  and  benefit  from  it.  We,  here  in 
Mansfield  State  Normal  School,  especially  appreciate  its  existence.  In  the 
hustle  and  bustle  of  college  life — with  so  many  things  to  take  up  our  time  and  our 
minds — we  welcome  the  short  hour  on  Thursday  evenings  when  we  may  forget  our 
troubles  and  gather  together  in  the  big  reception  room,  with  its  pleasant  informal 
atmosphere,  to  hear  a  word  of  hope.  The  inspiring  messages  refresh  us  and  help  us 
to  take  up  our  common  tasks  with  a  new  enthusiasm  and  to  enter  into  our  pleasures 
with  a  greater  vigor.  We  leave  these  meetings  with  a  new  hope  in  our  heaits,  a  new 
light  in  our  eyes,  and  a  deeper  meaning  to  our  lives. 

The  efforts  of  the  Y.  W.  have  been  bent  toward  one  goal — a  "Y"  Cabin  back 
on  Normal  Hill  among  the  pines.  Isn't  it  an  ideal?  For  this,  we  have  put  our  heads 
together,  planned,  suggested,  and  carried  out  ideas  to  make  money.  A  play,  "Seventh 
Heaven,"  played  by  the  Better  Players,  Inc.,  of  New  York  City,  was  one  of  our  biggest 
and  most  successful  schemes.  A  "Silent  Supper"  came  in  with  its  share  of  fun  and 
profit,  netting  a  thousand  pennies.  And.  of  course,  the  annual  Japanese  Bazaar  was 
a  boost  socially  and  financially.  Aside  from  these,  the  girls  are  gathering  in  small 
sums  from  their  nightly  food  sales — for  every  little  counts — and  much  is  needed. 

Many  suggestions  for  the  interesting  meetings  and  successful  financial  aff'airs 
and  social  events  were  forwarded  by  those  students  who  were  sent  to  the  Y.  W.  C.  A. 
conference  at  Eagles  Mere  last  summer.  These  girls  came  back  enthused  with  the 
work,  thrilled  with  anticipation,  ready  and  willing  to  do  all  in  their  power  to  make 
the  Y.  W.  at  Mansfield  State  more  interesting  and  more  helpful  to  its  members. 

It  is  the  Christian  spirit  which  is  needed  in  the  world  more  than  anything 
else — and  it  is  this  which  the  "Y"  tries  to  spread  that  the  girls  may  go  out  into  the 
world  better  prepared  to  teach,  to  find  happiness,  and  to  serve  their  fellowmen.

HE  MANSFIELD  Y.  M.  C.  A.  is  a  small  part  of  a  great  institution.  It  is  a 
member  of  the  State  Ycung  Men's  Christian  Association  of  Pennsylvania;  an 
Associate  Member  of  the  National  Council  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian 
Association  of  the  United  States,  and  of  the  International  Young  Men's  Christian 
Association  of  North  America. 

The  purpose  of  this  great  Association  is  to  create,  extend  and  maintain  through- 
out the  school,  community  and  the  world  a  high  standard  of  Christian  character. 

Maintenance  of  this  organization  depends  on  men  of  outstanding  character, 
keen  understanding  of  the  Christian  basis  of  life,  and  the  spiritual  life  of  its  members 
working  with  Christian  forces  in  the  churches. 

Here  at  Mansfield  the  spiritual  life  of  the  members  is  made  strong  by  the  stir- 
ing  and  uplifting  addresses  by  men  of  prominence  given  each  Thursday  at  our  devotional 
meetings.  The  "Y"  Gospel  Team  which  has  been  making  a  name  for  itself  the  past 
few  years  is  also  a  great  aid  toward  this  end.  Not  so  much  by  the  good  it  has  done  for 
others,  and  that  is  no  small  item,  but  for  the  great  Chrisian  experience  the  members  of 
the  team  have  obtained.  Any  man  by  making  known  his  desire  for  service  can  become 
a  part  of  this  organization. 

Each  year,  for  so  many  years  back  that  it  has  become  traditional,  the  "Y"  holds 
various  competitive  games  in  the  forms  of  tournaments.  Beginning  with  a  Pool  Tourna- 
ment in  the  middle  of  the  winter,  interest  is  held  through  the  gr-eat  Checker  Match  and 
on  to  the  Tennis  Tournament  which  is  held  each  spring. 

Among  the  winter  season's  social  affairs  is  the  "Y"  informal  dance.  This  year 
it  was  held  January  22.     This  is  one  of  the  most  enjoyable  functions  of  the  year. 

Soon  after  the  cabinets  are  elected  in  the  Spring  an  Officers'  Training  Con- 
ference is  held  at  one  of  the  Colleges  or  Universities  of  the  State.  Officers  of  all  Student 
Associations  from  all  over  the  Commonwealth  meet  for  a  week-end  of  conferences  and 
lectures  planned  to  aid  them  in  the  execution  of  theii*  duties.  This  year  the  conference 
was  held  at  Lebanon  Valley  College,  Annville,  Pa. 

The  "Y"  benefit  show  put  on  this  year  as  a  vaudeville  show  is  the  principal 
method  of  raising  funds  to  carry  on  the  work  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  The  success  of  this  can 
be  shown  by  the  new  material  in  the  Hut  and  the  reconstruction  of  the  pool  tables. 

— Harry  A.  Canfield,  President.

HE  ABILITY  to  practice  parliamentary  procedure  tactfully  and  efficiently  is 
a  distinct  asset  to  the  teaching  profession.  An  implicit  self-confidence  in 
public  appearance  and  among  friends  and  acquaintances  becomes  one's  in- 
dividuality and  personality  in  the  "School  of  Life."  An  appreciation  for  the  better  type 
of  literary  practices,  enriches  the  daily  hum-drum  of  life  and  surely  finds  a  pleasing 
outlet  in  the  pedagogical  field. 

Every  student  should  become  affilated  with  one  or  more  organizations.  This 
serves  to  add  a  touch  of  color  to  the  school  life  and  to  better  develop  the  individualities 
of  the  student.  You,  dissatisfied  and  restless  student,  you  vi^ho  are  lonely  and  find 
school  here  a  bore  and  nuisance,  allow  me  to  present  to  you,  the  Athenaean  Literary 
Society.  Try  it,  if  it  is  not  what  you  want,  get  out!  Nevertheless  get  into  something 
— develop  yourself — don't  become  a  classroom  drudge.  Instead,  become  active  and 
make  your  activity  contagious  so  that  someone  else  will  introspect  to  see  just  what 
they  are  accomplishing. 

The  meetings  are  held  bi-weekly,  usually  about  one  and  a  half  hours  in 
length.  The  first  part  of  the  meeting  is  given  over  to  a  business  discussion,  followed 
by  the  regular  program.  These  programs  are  varied  in  nature,  corresponding  to  the 
purpose  and  aims  of  the  society.  The  name  "Athenaean"  should  become  of  real 
significance  to  every  member  and  it  is  only  with  the  honest,  sacrificial  co-operation 
of  every  Athenaean  that  this  society  exists  today.  Remember  "Life  is  what  we  make 
it."  What  we  receive  is  always  reckoned  on  that  which  we  give.  The  word  Athenaean 
means  to  you,  oniy  that  as  measured  by  what  you  have  given  to  it.  A  member  of  this 
society  is  made  to  feel  that  he  is  an  essential.  Co-operation  is,  after  all,  the  secret 
of  humanity.  — Casper  McClelland.

WITHIN  EACH  ONE  of  us  is  the  power  to  make  ourselves  what  we  wish.  The 
degree  to  which  we  are  successful  in  this  attempt  depends  largely  upon 
proper  choice  of  environment.  To  cope  with  this  natural  situation  and  to 
provide  expression  for  varied  talent,  literary  societies  welcome  those  interested.  The 
Emersonian  Society  has  progressed  this  year  with  two  definite  policies  in  mind — to 
improve  the  meetings  and  to  support  the  school  publication,  "The  Flashlight."  In 
each,  members  will  verify  the  success  of  it.  In  the  former,  it  is  true,  meetings  have 
given  way  to  an  approved  and  mode  n  change  in  type.  Making  our  meetings  more 
social  and  varied  in  nature  has  not  only  regulated  attendance  but  has  also  increased 
the  membership  to  its  capacity.  We  agree  here  that  meetings  of  this  type  in  order 
that  they  may  measure  up  to  present  day  conventions  may  be  social,  yet  literary; 
entei'taining,  instructive  and  practical;  but  to  a  lesser  degree,  formal.  As  to  the  paper 
we  have  co-operated  with  the  other  society  of  the  school  in  its  publication. 

Glancing  back  over  the  activities  of  the  past  year,  members  and  visitors  will 
recall  some  of  the  finest  meetings.  Faithful  committees  have  been  responsible  for 
debates,  mock  trials,  spelling  bees,  short  plays,  readings,  pantomimes,  music  and 
public  speaking.  In  these  many  dormant  abilities  of  students  have  come  to  the 
attention  of  fellow  membership.  *  *  *  xhe  fire  is  burning  low,  now.  Just  a 
short  while  and  it  will  have  gone  out.  Give  out!  Yes,  and  there  are  some  of  us 
going  out  with  it.  Soon  we  must  get  together  our  trappings  and  start  our  pack  mules 
up  the  steep  path  that  may  lead  to  many  things.  We  thank  our  guide  for  his  faith- 
fulness to  us;  and  with  him  and  the  new  officers  of  1927-28,  we  leave  burning  coals.

"A  square  deal  for  the  country  child." 

(^"^^'''^HE  RURBAN  CLUB  was   org-anized  in  March,   1923,  from  which  time   it  has 
//  grown  under  the  able  direction  of  Miss  Clai-a  Winans,  to  be  one  of  the  school's 

strongest  organizations.  The  club  has  very  definite,  objectives,  some  of  which 
are:  to  make  a  careful  study  of  the  country  life  movement;  to  develop  in  its  members 
a  sense  of  personal  responsibility  in  regard,  to  country  life  and  its  betterment;  and  to 
create  a  co-operative  spirit  of  teacher  service.  The  club  aims  each  year  to  complete 
some  one  project.  It  has  already  three  traveling  libraries  rendering  service  in  rural 
schools.     Our  motto  is  "A  square  deal  for  the  country  child." 

Meetings  of  the  club  are  held,  tvrice  each  month  and  they  are  of  a  social  and 
literary  nature.  They  are  carefully  planned  in  order  to  suggest  to  the  members 
practical  programs  which  may  be  used  by  them  in  community  and  rural  work.  Each 
year  the  club  presents  a  play  and  the  money  received  is  used  to  help  with  the  project. 
The  project  for  this  year  is  another  traveling  library  and  constructive  plans  for  a 
modern  one-room  school. 

As  the  Seniors  leave  the  club  we  entrust  the  success  of  our  present  organiza- 
tion to  the  Juniors  and  new  members  who  will  step  into  our  places.  We  hope  that 
they  will  renew  their  interest  in  the  club — that  they  will  again  inform  themselves  of 
its  purposes  and  that  they  will  give  their  best  to  further  its  development.

(^Ir    RUE    TO   TRADITION   this   year's    Rurban    Club   play,   "Kindling   the   Hearth 
//  Fires,"   maintained   the  high  standard  aimed   at  by  the  club  in  their  annual 

production.  Essentially  rural  in  character  the  play  presented  many  interest- 
ing phases  of  country  problems.  Sound  practice,  which  makes  the  farmer's  life 
brighter  and  more  cheerful,  dramatically,  answers  the  question  of  keeping  the  younger 
generation  on  the  old  homestead.  No  longer  can  the  lure  of  city  life  entice  the 
country's  greatest  asset,  youth,  from  the  soil.  Opportunities  opened  in  the  last  few 
decades  equal  those  of  the  city — opportunities  surrounded  by  a  richness  of  environ- 
ment with  which  the  city  can  not  compete.  Such  was  the  theme  of  the  play.  The 
excellence  of  the  plot,  coupled  with  co-operation  of  the  cast,  produced  a  dramatic 
work  worthy  of  the  Rurban  Club.

THIS  YEAR  the  Art  Club  has  continued  its  practice  of  former  years  of  accom- 
plishing worth  while  projects.  During  the  first  semester  the  meetings  were 
devoted  to  practical  work.  For  the  entire  semester  members  worked  on 
many  different  articles,  such  as  gesso  plaques,  scrap  books,  desk  blotters,  shoe  trees, 
coat  hangers,  vases  and  book  ends,  which  were  sold  at  the  Art  Club  booth  in  the 
Y.  W.  C.  A.  bazaar. 

Thus  it  can  be  seen  that  to  those  who  attain  the  high  standard  for  admission 
into  the  club  unusual  opportunities  for  development  along  artistic   lines  are  afforded.

rHE  OUTDOOR  CLUB  is  for  girls  interested  in  outdoor  life.  We  hike,  we  eat, 
we  make  merry.  We  learn,  too,  of  plant  and  animal  life,  of  the  stars,  and 
of  the  soil.  In  all,  the  Outdoor  Club  is  one  of  the  best  in  the  Normal.  In 
case  you  don't  believe  it,  have  you  heard  of  the  initiation  of  the  new  members  at  the 
Club  House — of  the  memorable  steak  roast — of  "The  Pirates'  Den"  at  the  Fakirs' 
Carnival — of  the  Cornell  field  trip? 

Numerals  are  granted  to  Juniors  who  fill  requirements,  while  Seniors  are

JT  BEGINS  TO  APPEAR  that  girls  are  slowly  but  surely  winning  a  place  for 
themselves  in  athletics.  We  have  passed  into  the  age  of  happy,  healthy  girls. 
We  are  enjoying  the  things  that  make  life  worth  while.  This  is  where  we 
surpass  the  girls  of  yesterday.  The  Athletic  Club,  as  eveiyone  knows,  is  one  of  the 
leading  organizations  of  the  school.  Perhaps  no  other  organization  does  as  much  as 
this  one  toward  instilling  into  the  hearts  of  the  young  girls  of  this  institution  those 
ideals  which  contribute  toward  the  higher  plan  of  womenkind. 

The  pui-pose  of  the  Girls'  Athletic  Club  is  to  further  athletics,  to  inculcate  a 
spirit  of  good  sportsmanship,  and  to  support  the  school  spirit  here.  A  number  of 
requirements  are  necessary  before  a  Senior  receives  an  "M."  A  tennis  tournament 
and   a   swimming   meet  are   held   every   Spring.  — Veronica    D'Donnell.

rHE  "M"  CLUB  is  made  up  of  athletes  who  have  earned  the  official  "M"  of 
the  school  in  any  of  the  major  sports,  namely  football,  basketball,  baseball 
and  track.  This  club  was  organized  in  1922.  Mr.  Jones,  athletic  director 
at  that  time  was  its  originator.  The  charter  members  of  the  club  consisted  of  eight 
men  who  had  earned  a  letter  in  one  of  the  major  spoi^ts  at  that  time.  All  ex-letter 
men  automatically  became  honorary  members.  Since  that  time  the  club  has  grown 
very  rapidly  until  now  there  are  twenty-eight  active  members  in  school. 

Some  of  the  annual  functions  of  the  club  are  the  "M"  Club  dance,  initiation 
of  new  members,  and  the  presentation  of  letters  and  gold  footballs  to  men'  wno 
deserve  such  honor  and  recognition.  A  wearer  of  a  letter  or  gold  football  has  some- 
thing of  which  to  be  proud,  and  above  all  has  the  lasting  memory  of  the  athletic  games 
in  which  he  has  participated. 

The  purpose  of  the  club  is  three-fold:  to  promote  general  athletic  welfare 
in  the  school;  to  develop  in  its  members  a  conscious  sense  of  personal  responsibility 
in  school  and  athletic  betterment;  to  bring  a  sense  of  appreciation  of  the  value  of 
athletics  in  building  an  individual  or  group  physically,  mentally  and  morally  strong. 

The  only  method  of  financing  this  organization  is  by  means  of  a  Tag  Day. 
Our  tag  day  this  year  was  on  Parents'  Day  and  was  a  huge  success.  We  wish  to 
thank  the  school  and  parents  who  helped  support  us  at  that  time.

rHE  HIKING  CLUB  initiated  about  eighty  Juniors  this  year.  Instead  of 
reorganizing  into  a  Junior  and  Senior  Club  this  year  it  remained  one  large 
club.  The  work  of  the  Hiking  Club  is  easily  recognized  by  its  name.  Seniors 
who  hike  250  miles  during  the  year  are  awarded  an  "M"  on  a  black  background  with 
an  "H"  placed  above  the  "M".  Juniors  who  hike  250  miles  are  awarded  a  numeral. 
Business  and  social  meetings  are  held  at  the  club  house  every  two  weeks. 

When  we  speak  of  ideals  in  connection  with  the  Hiking  Club  we  do  not  desire 
to  give  the  false  impression  that  this  social  organization  is  a  "hum-drum."  Those 
ideals  are  instilled  in  a  skillful  manner  by  which  social  meetings  as  well  as  strictly 
business  meetings  have  an  equal  share  of  time  and  attention.  You  who  have  attended 
those  social  functions  know  that  the  enjoyment  or  fun  received  at  them  is  of  the 
finest  nature.  — Phyllis  Ungard.

SENIOR  MUSIC   SUPERVISORS 


Music  Depaftnient 

Mansfield  State  Normal  School  has  had,  from  its  founding  a  splendid  tradition, 
musically.  Some  of  its  musical  directors  have  been  nationally  famous.  Beginning 
with  the  year  1921,  Pennsylvania  authorized  a  new  course  in  Music  Supervision  in 
three  of  its  State  Normal  schools,  Mansfield  being  one  of  the  three.  Dr.  Hollis  Uann, 
of  Cornell  University,  was,  this  same  year,  made  State  Director  of  Music  and  the 
three  year  course,  which  has  since  been  in  force,  was  arranged  by  him. 

This  year  will  be  a  red  letter  year  in  the  history  of  this  department  for  the 
old  three  year  course  has  been  extended  to  four  with  the  degree  Bachelor  of  Science 
in  Public  School  Music.  Already  we  have  graduated  one  degree  student.  Miss  Ruth 
Kohler,  whose  first  musical  opus,  a  sonata  after  the  old  classical  form  was  recently 
played  by  our  symphony  orchestra  under  Miss  Kohler's  direction — Dr.  Butler  gracious- 
ly giving  over  his  baton  to  Miss  Kohler  for  the  occasion. 

Students  graduating  from  this  department  have  all  been  most  satisfactorily 
placed  in  positions  ranging  from  thirteen  to  eighteen  hundred  dollars  a  year.  In 
every  instance  they  have  had  a  substantal  increase  in  salary  for  each  year  of  service, 
which  in  itself  speaks  for  the  work  done  in  the  department. 

For  our  practice  teaching  laboratory  we  have  the  entire  Mansfield  borough 
school  system  and  that  of  Covington.  Every  student  must  have  two  years  of  practice 
teaching  and  in  addition  to  the  academic  content  of  the  course  four  years  of  piano  and 


Paf;e  One  Hundred  Eighty-two 


voice,  three  of  stringed  instruments,  one  in  trass  and  reeds  and  play  at  least  one 
year  in  band  and  orchestra.  This  enables  us  to  turn  out  an  especially  well  prepared 
teaching   product. 

Among  the  musical  activities  of  the  school  are  three  fine  choral  societies — 
the  Orpheus  Club  of  forty  male  voices,  the  Cecelians,  consisting  of  one  hundred  ladies 
voices,  and  the  Vesper  Choir  of  one  hundred  mixed  voices.  Th^en  we  have  both  a 
ladies  and  a  male  quartet.  A  fine  orchestra  of  fifty-five  players,  most  of  whom  are 
taking  the  work  in  Music  Supervison,  present  many  fine  programs  during  the  year, 
both  in  the  school  and  surrounding  towns.  Each  morning  this  organizaton  plays  for 
chapel  exercises. 

We  have  three  bands — a  concert  band  of  twenty-five  members  who  give 
many  concerts,  a  junior  band  of  forty,  made  up  principally  of  supei-visors  who  are 
studying  band  instruments,  and  a  grade  band  of  twenty-five.  The  two  latter  organiza- 
tions make  a  fine  nucleus  for  future  work. 

The  course  has  seventy-six  hours  of  music  content,  thirty-three  of  education, 
eight  of  English,  four  of  physical  training  and  fifteen  hours  in  an  elective  field,  thus 
making  the  course  one  of  the  most  all  round  in  the  country. 

The  teaching  personnel  is  as  follows:  Mrs.  Grace  Steadman,  Dean.  Methods 
and  General  Supervision.  Dr.  Will  George  Butler,  Stringed  Instruments,  Orchestra, 
Composition.  John  F.  Myers,  Band,  Band  Instruments  and  Music  History.  Marjorie 
Brooks,  Theory  and  Harmony.  Mrs.  Marjorie  Hartman,  Training  School  Music  Critic. 
Louise  Vroman,  Sight  Reading,  Eurythmics,  Piano  Methods.  Cora  Atwater,  Contralto, 
Voice.  Elsie  Perkins,  Soprano,  Voice.  Margaret  Payne,  Piano.  Rachel  Hoole,  Piano.

JSIC  AS  AN  ART  is  the  sc'ence  of  harmonic  sounds.  The  public  schools 
building  for  America  a   nation  of  musicians.     Musical   training  in  the 

public  schools  is  being  organized,  extended  and  developed  more  than  any 
other  subje:t  and  it  is  predicted  Am.erica  will  soon  be  the  lead'ng  nation  of  the  world 
in  the  realm  of  music.      "Next  to  Divinity  no  art  is  comparable  to   music." — Luther. 

The  Music  Supervisors'  Club,  as  the  name  signifies,  consists  of  all  the 
students  taking  the  Music  Supervisors'  course  of  study.  The  sponsors,  Mrs.  Stead- 
man  and  Mr.  Myers,  very  often  give  talks  in  the  field  of  music,  lending  a  helping 
hand  in  all  emergencies  that  confront  the  students  in  their  work.  They  endeavor  to 
give  a  training  that  will  prepare  the  future  supervisor  in  all  lines. 

The  corresponding-secretaiy  communicates  with  former  graduates  from  the 
music  course,  requesting  them  to  present,  in  detail,  some  of  the  difi'icult  situations 
encountered  in  their  supervising  work.  Knowing  their  problems  we,  as  student-super- 
visors, can  better  fit  ourselves  for  the  work  ahead  of  us.  To  be  truly  efficient,  the 
supervisor  must  know  how  to  organize  and  conduct  bands,  orchestras,  glee  clubs 
and  choruses  and  supervise  the  work  of  the  grade  teacher  in  music.  The  object  of 
this  club  is  to  teach  through  these  direct  experiences,  how  to  cope  with  these 
problems  so  that  when  we  go  out  for  ourselves  we  may  do  our  work  with  fewer  mis- 
takes and  a  greater  degree  of  perfection.  — Royal    Sherman.

CAST,   "THE   POT   BOILERS" 


The  State  Department  of  Public  Instruction  thought  it  sufficiently  worth 
while  to  give  credit  to  those  who  do  prescribed  work. 

The  aim  of  the  society  is  not  to  develop  the  stage  profession  but  to  help 
the  prospective  teacher  to  correlate  his  abilities  to  the  demands  of  education  and 
future  life;  to  develop  the  literary  and  dramatic  appreciation  that  lies  latent  in  all 
people;  to  give  self-expression  a  prominent  place  in  one's  life. 

The  foremost  production  of  the  Masquers  this  year  was  "Clarence."  It  was 
one  of  the  best  plays  ever  produced  here,  and  was  an  entire  success  in  management, 
coaching,  acting  and  production.  The  first  production  of  the  year  was  "The  Pot 
Boilers,"  which  was  given  as  part  of  the  entertainment  for  Parents'  Day. 

"All  the  world's  a  stage  and  all  the  men  and  women  merely  players,"  has 
been  held  continuously  in  front  of  the  society.  The  members  have  learned  in  some 
degree,  to  become  a  part  of  life's  drama  and  to  act  their  part  in  the  best  manner 
possible.  The  work  done  and  experience  gained  through  this  organization  will  never 
be  regretted  and  the  benefits  derived  will  ever  be  a  practical  medium  of  reference  in 
whatever  branch  of  the  world's  work  one  specializes.  — Paul  Miller.

Art 


A  RT  IS  THE  EXPRESSION  of  the  soul.  Our  highest  enjoyment  is  in  the 
^  /--\\  interpretation  of  our  emotions  in  the  form  of  art.  Is  there  a  higher  degree 
^-"^  -^  of  satisfaction  than  the  construction  of  a  bit  of  scenery  from  nature  by 
our  original  interpretation  of  it?  Joy  and  beauty  are  necessary  in  human  lives, 
strength  and  color  are  necessary  in  the  portrayal  of  nature.  With  the  fusion  of  the 
art  of  human  beings  and  the  artistic  beauty  of  nature  nothing  can  bring  more  joy  and 
happiness  to  the  artist. 

Consciousness  of  art  is  beginning  to  be  awakened  in  the  school,  college  and 
university.  It  can  be  called  an  aw^akening  of  the  younger  generation.  They  realize 
the  povi^er  and  massiveness  of  the  modern  structures,  they  see  the  strength  of  the 
cui-ves  and  lines  as  they  harmonize  to  create  this  structural  age  of  speed.  The  world 
needs  harmony  whei'ever  art  can  produce  it. 

As  the  individual  is  the  sum  total  of  his  heredity  and  his  experiences,  so  is 
self-expression,  in  whatever  form  it  may  take,  the  evidence  of  such  combined  influ- 
ences. Not  too  earnestly,  then,  can  be  urged  the  practice  of  absoi'ption  and  assimila- 
tion of  beauty  everywhere,  in  line,  dark  and  light  color,  whether  of  sea  or  sky. 
Oriental  I'ug  or  vase,  nature,  historic  ornament,  the  geometric — all  are  grist  to  the 
mill  of  the  true  observer  and  genuine  lover  of  beauty.

"Thy    life    to    mend, 
This    Book    attend." 

EFORE  ME  lies  a  dilapidated  little  book,  about  three  and  three-quarters 
inches  long,  and  three  and  a  half  wide.  Its  pages  are  worn  and  stained;  its 
front  cover  of  boards,  from  which  the  blue  paper,  once  pasted  over  the 
wood,  has  disappeared,  is  broken  into  several  pieces.  The  back  cover  consists  of  one 
small  fragment  of  board  to  which  the  blue  paper,  now  faded  to  an  ugly  gray,  still 
clings.  A  strip  of  soiled,  worn  leather,  clumsily  stitched  by  hand,  forms  the  back. 
It  is  a  sorry  looking  little  volume,  and  yet  it  is,  perhaps,  the  choicest  book 
in  the  Normal  School  Library,  for  it  bears  on  its  title  page  these  words  so  significant 
to  many  generations  of  Americans: 

THE  NEW  ENGLAND  PRIMER 

Improved 

For  the  More  Easy  Attaining  the  True  Reading  of  English 

To   Which   is   Added 

The   Assembly   of   Divines 

Catechism. 

The  place  of  publication  is  Middletown;  the  date  is   1811. 

This  is  a  copy  of  the  most  famous  textbook  ever  published  in  America; — THE 
reading  book  of  young  Americans  for  more  than  a  hundred  years;  a  best-seller  to  the 
extent  of  more  than  three  millions  of  copies.  The  copy  before  us,  though  genuine 
and  unique  in  interest,  is  not  so  old  as  to  have  rare  book  value.  The  date  of  the  first 
edition  is  not  certain,  but  1690  is  probably  correct.  No  seventeenth  century  copy  now 
exists;  the  oldest  perfect  edition  bears  the  date  1735.  It  is  said  that  this  copy  was 
sold  by  its  owner  for  $2,500. 

The  New  England  Frimer  was  a  primer  in  the  old  sense  of  the  word :  it 
presented  the  rudiments  not  only  of  reading,  but  of  religion  also.  How  quaint  its 
contents  to  a  modern  eye:  the  rhymed  alphabetical  couplets  beginning,  "In  Adam's 
fall,  we  sinned  all";  the  queer  indistinct  little  pictures;  the  "Moral  Precepts";  "Duty 
of  Children  towards  their  Parents";  the  grim  picture  and  account  of  the  martyrdom 
of  the  Reverend  John  Rogers,  who  "died  courageously  for  the  gospel  of  Jesus  Christ"; 
and,  no  doubt  most  important  of  all  in  the  eyes  of  parents  and  teachers,  the  redoubt- 
able "Shorter  Catechism,"  which  was  called  by  Cotton  Mather,  "a  little  watering  pot 
to  shed  good  lessons."  Poor  little  Puritans  who  committed  to  memory  its  107 
questions  and  answers  and  watered  them  with  their  tears! 

One  looks  with  mingled  feelings  on  the  little  book — the  perfect  expression 
of  Puritan  ideals  for  the  education  of  young  children.  It  is  so  easy  to  compare  it 
unfavorably  with  the  attractive,  pedagogically  correct  reading  books  of  today.  Its 
contents  are  unsuitable  for  children:  the  material  is  too  sternly  religious,  too  much 
concerned  with  death,  too  didactically  moral.  And  yet  there  breathes  from  its  faded 
pages  a  spirit  of  power,  dignity,  and  reverence.  At  least,  the  creators  of  this  book 
knew  what  they  believed,  believed  it  with  all  their  force,  and  taught  their  children 
the  same.  "Other  times,  other  manners,"  but  here  is,  for  all  its  shabby  dress,  a  book 
which  was  a  mighty  influence  in  early  American  life  and  thought. 

"My    book    and    Heart 
Shall    never    part."

Our   creed: 

"Home   Economics   stands   for: 

"The  ideal  home  life  today  unhampered  by  the  traditions  of  the  past, 

"The  utilization  of  the  resources  of  modern  science  to  improve  the  home  life. 

"The    freedom    of   the    home    from    the    dominance    of   things    and    their    due

"That  rimplicity  in  material  surroundings  which  will  free  the   spirit  for  the 
more  important  and  permanent  interests  of  the  home  and  of  society." 

—Ellen  H.   Richards    (1842-1911). 


It  was  three  short  years  ago  when  we,  the  class  of  1927,  entered  the  friendly 
portals  of  Mansfield  State  Normal  School.  We  entered  right  into  hai'd  work  from 
the  first,  but  along  with  it  all  we  formed  many  new  acquaintances  and  a  few  fast 
friends.  We  were  brought  in  contact  with  a  new  social  life,  which  many  of  us  had 
not  known  before.     We  owe  it  all  to  you — dear  Normal. 

We  felt  very  proud  this  year  when  our  school  was  officially  granted  the 
privilege  of  awarding  degrees  to  fourth  year  graduates  in  Home  Economics.  We 
■were  hoping  that  the  new  Junior  High  would  be  completed  in  1927,  so  we  could  have 
one  year  in  the  new  building.  We  were  a  little  disappointed,  but  we  are  glad  to  state 
that  it  is  started  and  those  who  come  after  us  can  enjoy  the  benefit  of  teaching  there. 

Our  course  offers  instruction  in  cookery,  clothing,  millinery,  practical  house- 
keeping and  many  related  subjects.  During  our  third  year  we  go  down  to  the  practice 
house  for  six  weeks  and  in  this  way  put  our  knowledge  to  the  test. 

We  feel  very  fortunate  indeed  in  having  as  our  Supervisor  Miss  Lu  Hartman, 
who  this  year  was  elected  president  of  the  State  Home  Economics  Association. 
Excellent  instruction  is  given  in  clothing  and  millinery  by  Miss  Sadie  Smith,  who  is 
very  patient  with  us  during  our  trials  in  making  coats  and  hats.  Under  the  super- 
vision of  Miss  Maryon  Farrer  all  the  members  of  the  course  have  received  information 
and  practical  experience  in  cookery  and  related  subjects.  Our  girls  are  not  only  fitted 
for  teaching,  but  for  homemaking  as  well. 

"We  may  live  without  poetry,  music  and  ait. 
We    may    live    without    conscience    and    live    without    heart; 
We  may  live  without  friends;  we  may  live  without  books; 
But  civilized  man  cannot  live  without  cooks."

rHE  DOMICILIAN  CLUB  was  organized  by  the  Home  Economics  girls  early  in 
the  fall  of  1925.  The  purpose  of  the  club  is  two-fold:  to  develop  initiative  and 
individuality  in  its  members;  by  the  activity  of  the  club  to  develop  a  sincere 
appreciation,  in  our  fellow  students  as  well  as  members  of  the  club,  of  the  value  of 
Home  Economics  in  the  great  field  of  education. 

The  club  meets  once  each  month.  This  year  the  time  has  been  well  consumed 
in  the  carrying  out  of  various  interesting  projects  as  well  as  the  hearing  of  educational 
reports  in  the  meetings.  The  club  has  become  affiliated  with  the  American  Home 
Economics  Association.  Our  main  project  of  the  year  was  to  earn  money  by  selling 
hot  dogs  and  sandwiches  that  we  might  prepare  and  serve  a  chicken  dinner  to  our 
most  worthy  and  successful  football  men.  We  were  greatly  rewarded  for  our  efforts,. 
in  that  the  fellows  showed  their  appreciation  by  a  short  performance  in  chapel  the 
morning  following  the  dinner.  Another  project  which  is  now  under  way  is  the  earning 
of  money  that  pictures  and  books  may  be  purchased  for  the  cottage. 

We  sincerely  hope  that  the  success  of  the  club  will  continue  to  increase  in 
the  coming  year.  — Evelyn  M.  Halstead.

THE  TRAINING  SCHOOL 


TrainifiE  School 


ONE  OF  THE  MOST  important  phases  that  enters  into  our  education  at  Mansfield 
Normal  has  been  our  experience  in  the  Training  School.  The  new  Principal, 
George  Austin  Retan,  has  followed  in  the  footsteps  of  his  father,  E.  A.  Retan, 
who  retired  at  the  close  of  school  last  year.  He  is  continuing  the  good  work  of  making 
the  Training  Sthool  a  success  both  for  training  teachers  and  teaching  children.  We, 
the  graduates  of  1927,  appreciate  his  kindness  in  directing  and  advising  us  in  the 
teaching  profession.  We  could  not  possibly  have  had  a  better  opportunity  to  study  or 
to  come  into  contact  with  children  as  in  our  teaching  assignments,  observations,  and 
demonstrations.  We  have  acquired  much  valuable  knowledge  concerning  children, 
their  needs  and  desires.  The  child  no  longer  feels  himself  a  prisoner.  Each  of  his 
needs  is  anticipated  and  filled  that  it  may  benefit  him  in  the  best  possible  manner. 
Our  teaching  has  been  guided — been  made  to  mean  more  to  us — because  of  the 
direction  of  eff^icient  supervisors. 

This  year  because  of  the  congestion  in  the  Training  School  the  facilities  for 
training  teachers  have  been  increased.  The  Wellsboro  schools  have  been  included  as 
part  of  the  Tiaining  School.  Though  this  is  a  new  idea  it  has  proved  most  successful. 
We,  who  have  taught  in  Wellsboro,  are  grateful  to  the  supervisors  and  principal  there. 

Truly,  it  is  only  proper  that  we  have  something  in  our  annual  as  a  remem- 
brance of  the  training  we  received.  We  appreciate  the  Training  School  v/here  we 
wont  as  iiutrained  teachers  to  begin  the  practice  of  our  profession.

Junior  High  School 


rHE  JUNIOR  HIGH  SCHOOL  was  organized  in  the  Fall  of  1920  with  dual 
objectives:  it  aimed  to  provide  more  definitely  for  the  needs  of  the  adolescent 
of  the  community;  and  it  hoped  to  afford  an  opportunity  to  the  Normal 
students  of  Group  III  to  catch  the  spirit  and  enthusiasm  so  necessary  to  successful 
teaching  in  this  transition  period  in  every  child's  life.  The  Junior  High  School  has 
succeeded  in  attaining  its  objectives  to  a  degree  altogether  encouraging.  We  wish 
to  pay  tribute  to  our  Principal,  Dr.  William  R.  Straughn,  who  has  a  very  large  part 
in  its  growth  and  success.  Due  chiefly  to  his  efl'orts  we  have  now  under  construction 
a  fine  two  hundred  thousand  dollar  Junior  High  School  building. 

Mr.  Webster,  our  Junior  High  School  Principal,  is  author  of  the  prediction, 
"No  school  system  will  ever  receive  more  sympathetic,  enthusiastic  service  from  the 
people  who  have  taught  in  our  Junior  High  School  as  student  teachers."  We  appre- 
ciate such  a  compliment  from  one  who  has  had  a  large  share  in  our  training.  We 
wish  for  the  Junior  High  School  a  lasting  and  increasing  success. 

—Robert  E.  Merrill.

'^~h.  /"iNETEEN  TWENTY  SEVEN'S  "Flashlight"  has  proven  in  no  uncertain 
_  /  ^J  terms  its  worth  and  value  as  tiue  representatitves  of  Mansfield's  myi-iad 
^  activities  and  recordings.  Confronted  with  the  knowledge  that  a  weekly 
paper  had  never  been  attempted  and  possessing  no  expeiienced  newspaper  writers,  the 
task  seemed  almost  an  impossibility.  The  first  difficulty  was  surmounted  when  the 
students  responded  nobly  to  an  appeal  for  subsci'ibers  to  the  extent  of  five  hundred. 
Mansfield's  merchants  advanced  the  remainder  of  the  financial  backing  almost  one 
hundred  percent.  The  "Flashlight"  has  not  been  dependent  on  any  organization  or 
benefit  fund  since  its  beginning,  relying  solely  on  the  initial  campaign  to  carry  it 
through — this  has  been  done  successfully. 

Using  as  a  basis  nineteen  twenty  six's  bi-weekly  sheet,  edited  by  an  able  and 
highly  efficient  staff,  the  present  board  has  placed  the  weekly  plan  of  the  newspaper 
within  the  realm  of  possibility.  An  exchange  has  been  established,  clubs  have  been 
faithfully  represented,  news  events  of  major  and  minor  importance  have  been  accu- 
rately and  adequately  pictured,  social  life  played  a  prominent  part,  business  adminis- 
tration in  relation  to  the  student  was  clearly  explained,  and  last,  but  by  far  the  most 
vauable,  sports  of  the  school  in  all  major  branches  were  given  an  unlimited  amount 
of  space.     This  makes  possible  the  indelible  preservation  of  the  records  of  1927. 

The  staff  of  the  "Flashlight"  deserves  unlimited  credit  for  the  hard,  inval- 
uable work  put  forth  on  this  infant  publication.  It  has  been  made  possible  through 
their  efforts  to  obtain  an  insight  on  school  affairs,  and  has  made  Mansfield  activities 
well  known  at  other  similar  institutions  in  and  out  of  the  state.  Let's  make  next 
year's  publication  a  still  larger  achievement  and  contribute  still  more  to  the  progress 
of  the  "Little  Town  on  the  Hill."

The  Frosh  Ftolic 


^Ij  HE  ANNUAL  FRESHMAN  DANCE  was  held  in  the  gymnasium  on  the  after- 
//        noon  of  Febiuary  12.     Much  preparation  had  been  made  and  members  of  the 

class  and  of  the  school  were  looking  forward  to  this  great  event.  Things  that 
are  anticipated  for  a  long  time  are  not  apt  to  live  up  to  the  expectations  of  the  antici- 
pators, but  let  it  be  remembered  that  the  Freshman  dance,  in  the  year  nineteen  hundred 
twenty-seven,  exceeded  the  most  optimistic  prophecies. 

The  Red  and  Black  Serenaders,  a  ten-piece  school  orchestra,  furnished  the 
music  for  the  event.  The  gymnasium  was  beautifully  decorated  from  one  end  to  the 
other,  not  a  single  spot  being  left  uncovered.  The  committee  decorated  in  class  colors, 
royal  blue  and  silver  gray.  The  ceiling  was  completely  covered  with  a  blue  and  gray 
latticework  of  crepe  paper,  while  balloons  of  the  same  color  hung  from  one  end  to  the 
other.  Every  post  was  covered  with  blue  and  gray  flowers,  while  between  them  were 
streamers  of  crepe  paper  of  the  same  color.  The  south  end  of  the  room  was  decorated 
in  red  and  black  to  carry  out  the  name  of  the  famous  orchestra. 

The  Frolic  was  a  grand  success,  thanks  to  the  class  off'icers  and  committees. 
May  the  Fl-eshman  classes  following  the  one  of  1927  do  as  well.  — D.  H.  B. 


(^1       KINGS  OF   BEAUTY  and  real   pleasure   events   are   rare — so   rare   that  when 
//  a  striking  occasion  such  as  the  Sophomore  Hop  was  presented  to  the  students 

and  visitors,  it  carried  the  revelers  by  storm.  The  Sophomores  well  deserve 
the  slogan,  "Midget  in  numbers,  but  g-iants  in  organization  and  power."  In  the  1927 
Hop  we  have  proof  of  this  maxim.  Fiom  the  point  of  experience  it  seems  to  have 
outstripped  even  this  excellent  motto. 

Everything  blended  perfectly;  beautiful  and  harmonious  syncopation  of  music; 
delectable  refreshments;  er.thusiasm  at  its  apex;  a  marvelous  decoration  scheme  of 
orange,  purple  and  yellow,  with  potted  plants  set  about  the  spacious  Gym,  and  an 
unusual  tea  garden  effect  at  the  lower  end.  Concomitant  with  these  were  the  placing 
of  the  playing  platform  in  the  center  of  the  hall,  and  the  splendid  music  dispensed 
from  the  odd  point  of  vantage. 

Congiatulations  to  the  officers,  Mr.  Brooks  and  Mrs.  McKinney  cannot  be  too 
generous,  and  the  standards  set  by  the  1927  Sophomores  will  be  the  high-water  mark 
for  years  to  come.

y.  M.  a  A,  Dance 


ON  THE  NIGHT  of  January  22  the  annual  "Y"  dance  was  held  in  the  "Y"  hut. 
The  hut  was  colorfully  decorated  in  blue  and  white.  At  one  end  in  an  alcove 
sat  the  musicians,  who,  in  this  case,  happened  to  be  the  Red  and  Black 
Serenaders.  It  was  a  more  or  less  proper  and  dignified  dance  until  refreshment  time. 
The  refreshments  consisted  of  a  light  lunch  of  sandwiches,  cookies  and  ice  cream. 
A  Paul  Jones  was  then  suggested  and  Danny  Holleran  presided  as  caller.  It  did  not 
take  long  to  mix  the  crowd  and  get  things  going  along  in  a  peppy  fashion,  causing 
the  dance  to  develop  into  a  merry  party.  One  of  the  features  of  the  affair  was  an 
elimination  dance.  All  couples  were  given  numbers  and  Brit  Davis  called  them.  The 
survivors  were  "Flash"  Sorber  and  Winifred  Kofed.  All  the  "Y"  members  and  their 
guests  were  in  the  midst  of  enjoying  themselves  when  the  heartless  Dean  called  time. 
The  Y.  M.  C.  A.  boys  are  a  peppy  lot  and  sure  did  put  on  a  peppy  dance. 

First  "M"  Club  Dance 

JT  WAS  A  BEAUTIFUL  Winter's  evening.  Everyone  was  hustling  and  bustling 
around  as  if  the  great  event  of  the  year  was  at  hand.  But,  why  shouldn't  they? 
It  was  the  night  of  the  "M"  Club  dance,  the  one  big  night  of  1926-27.  The  gym 
was  decorated  like  an  English  Castle  at  the  time  of  a  royal  wedding'  and  that  music — 
it  was  so  hot  we  had  to  take  down  some  of  the  decorations  to  keep  them  from  burning. 
Much  credit  must  be  given  the  "M"  Club,  Mrs.  McKinney,  Mr.  Brooks  and  others  who 
made  our  dance  such  a  huge  success,  and  it  is  hoped  that  the  "M"  Club  dances  in  the 
years  to  follow  will  be  as  nice  as  ours  of  1926-27. 

— Daniel  Peter  Holleran. 

Private  "M"  Club  Dance 

(mijl^  HE  "M"  CLUB  held  a  second  dance  this  year.     Only  members  of  the  club  were 
//  present    with    their    lady    friends.      About    thirty-five    couples    attended    and 

enjoyed  dancing  to  music  furnished  by  the  Red  and  Black  Serenaders.  The 
hall  was  extensively  decorated  with  the  school  colors,  Red  and  Black.  Confetti, 
streamers,  and  various  novelties  were  distributed  during  the  dancing.  Delicious  re- 
freshments were  served  at  11:30  o'clock,  followed  by  more  dancing  and  then  all 
departed  at  12  o'clock,  everyone  extending  hearty  congratulations  to  the  dance  and 
refreshment  committee  composed  of  Manford  Lloyd  and  Clarence  Lord. 


rHE  CROWNING  EVENT  of  Mansfield  State's  social  season  was  the  Senior 
Prom  held  in  the  Gymnasium  on  April  30,  just  one  month  before  the  gradua- 
tion. This  event  is  always  anticipated  with  a  great  deal  of  delight  for  it  is 
at  this  time  that  the  outgoing  class  leaves  nothing  undone  to  give  the  very  best 
possible  in  the  form  of  a  dance.  The  gymnasium  was  decorated  more  beautifully 
than  ever  before.  The  Red  and  Black  Serenaders  furnished  music  for  dancing.  Favors 
were  distributed  during  the  evening  and  delicious  refreshments  were  servd.  The 
committee  should  be  proud  of  the  work  they  have  accomplished  for  it  was,  without  a 
doubt,  the  greatest  success  this  year.

The  Fakirs'  Frolic 


lUY  YOUR  TICKETS!  Right  this  way!  Don't  miss  the  big  show!  Old  folks, 
young  folks,  everybody  come!  These  were  the  mingled  cries  of  the  professional 
fakirs  along  the  great  midway  in  Alumni  Hall.  Such  thrilling  adventures  as 
exploring  a  Pirate's  Den,  a  Haunted  House  and  the  revealing  of  one's  past,  present 
and  future  by  charming  palmists,  namely,  Miss  Gerlach  and  Mrs.  McCormick,  then 
claimed  our  attention.  We,  the  curious,  were  then  lured  to  the  Beauty  Contest,  a 
fishpond  and  a  branch  of  that  well-known  Barnum  and  Bailey  Circus. 

The  Fashion  Show,  exhibited  in  the  salon  of  Madame  Goldini,  was  the  crown- 
ing event  of  the  evening.  The  charming  mannequins  displayed  their  fall  styles  under 
lights  of  various  hues.  The  Music  Supervisors,  representing  the  three  Graces  and 
nine  Muses  tripped  it  gaily  on  the  light  fantastic.  Between  these  two  bits  of  grace 
we  enjoyed  the  syncopated  rhythm  of  the  Red  and  Black  Seienaders. 

Then,  as  the  festive  show  ended,  our  feet  naturally  led  us  to  the  Gym  where 
the  Red  and  Blacks  did  their  stuff.  Many  visits  were  made  to  the  Japanese  tea  room 
during  the  dance.  Tired  but  happy  at  ten  o'clock  we  considered  ourselves  duly 
"faked"  for  another  year.  The  proceeds  from  the  Carnival  were  used  for  social 
functions  during  the  year.  — K.  L.  C. 


rHE  OPERA  to  be  produced  this  year  is  "lolanthe."  It  is  a  Gilbert  and  Sullivan 
comic  opera  that  is  especially  beautiful  because  of  its  elaborate  scenery.  For 
some  time  the  principals  and  chorus,  directed  by  Mrs.  Steadman  and  Mrs. 
Hartman,  have  been  hard  at  work  and  according  to  all  indications  the  1927  production 
should  be  a  decided  success.  The  excellent  cast  consists  of  Euleta  Bunnell,  Mary 
Camp,  Isabel  Sairs,  Anna  Krutzeck,  Henrietta  Muchler,  Willard  Ackley,  Russell  Alden, 
Leon  Payne,  E.  P.  Huntington  and  Allan  Gillett.  The  chorus  is  made  up  of  thirty-two 
voices.  As  usual  there  will  be  two  regular  productions  with  a  dress  rehearsal  for  the 
underclassmen  who  leave  before  the  first  performance.

THE   SWISS   BELL   RINGERS 

Edgar  C.  Raine,  known  throughout  the  lecturing  clique  as  the  world's  best 
authority  on  Alaska,  was  with  us  December  8,  in  Alumni  Hall.  His  lecture  was  called 
"The  Frontier  Wonderland  of  the  World."  He  brought  with  him  over  one  hundred 
fifty  views  of  the  land  of  the  midnight  sun.  His  talk  was  based  on  these  slides  in  an 
interesting  and  clever  fashion  which  gave  us  an  exceptional  opportunity  to  enjoy  an 
evening  in  Alaska. 


EDGAR  C.  RAINE 

The  Swiss  Bell  Ringers  lived  up  to  their  reputation  as  one  of  the  best  high 
class  entertainment  companies  on  the  road  when  they  appeared  on  the  local  stage 
January  15.  Their  program  was  something  new  to  us.  Its  variety  of  well  selected 
solos,  quartet  and  bell  numbers  made  it  a  delig.itful  and  entertaining  affair.  The 
entire  student  body  was  high  in  its  praise  of  the  skillful  way  in  which  the  team 
handled  the  great  number  of  bells  used  in  the  various  selections.  We  are  all  waiting 
for  another   opportunity  to   hear   this   unique   company. 


BRAJJCH  RICKEY 

Branch  Rickey,  an  exponent  of  clean  sportsmanship,  appeared  on  the  lecture 
platform  at  Mansfield  State  Friday  evening,  January  28.  This  famous  athlete  and 
owner  of  the  famous  "Cardinals"  gave  us  a  great  talk  and  as  one  fellow  said,  "He 
isn't  much  of  an  orator  but  he  said  some  things  worth  remembering."  Those  who 
were  fortunate  enough  to  hear  Mr.  Rickey's  speech  will  not  regret  or  forget.  "Give 
yourself  to  your  purpose  one  hundred  per  cent,  and  let  the  results  take  care  of 
themselves." 


JESS  PUGH 

Jess  Pugh,  the  widely  known  fun  specialist  extraordinary,  made  his  scheduled 
appearance  at  our  auditorium,  Friday  evening,  March  16.  This  notable  entertainer 
kept  us  in  an  uproar  of  laughter  throughout  the  entire  evening  with  his  wealth  of 
comedy  sketches  and  masterpieces  of  well  acted  humor.  Although  Mr.  Pugh  is  a 
spontaneous  fun  maker  he  is,  at  the  same  time,  an  able  interpreter  of  the  best  in 
serious  literature.

THE  SHOW-OFF 

"The  Show-Off,"  an  uproarious  comedy  success,  with  an  all  star  New  York 
cast,  was  presented  at  the  Normal  February  26  to  a  packed  house.  The  whole  thing- 
was  exciting  from  start  to  finish.  Every  one  was  royally  entertained  and  amused. 
Even  the  Profs  smiled  at  the  comical  situations  "Carnation  Willie"  brought  about 
while  trying  to  avoid  work. 


WEYLAND  ECHOLS 

On  March  11,  in  Alumni  Hall,  Weyland  Echols  lived  up  to  all  advance  notices 
and  provided  a  high  standard  of  classical  vocal  selections.  The  whole  progiam  was 
received  enthusiastically  by  the  audience  and  Mr.  Echols  was  recalled  for  many  encores, 
dividing  his  applause  with  his  accompanist,  Miss  Brooks  of  the  Normal  faculty.  The 
varied  groupings  of  his  recitals  were  taken  from  French,  Italian,  German,  Russian, 
and  English  composers  and  in  the  different  renditions  Mr.  Echols  commanded  perfect 
accent  in  all  the  languages.  We  are  very  fortunate  in  having  had  Weyland  Echols 
with  us,  as  he  is  considered  one  of  the  leading  tenors  of  the  youthful  group  of  coming 
artists. 


GLENN   L.  MORRIS 

The  electrical  demonstration,  Monday  evening,  March  14,  by  Glenn  L.  Morris,. 
proved  to  be  one  of  the  most  interesting,  instructive  and  incidentally  amusing  lectures 
of  the  year.  Mr.  Morris'  confined  himself  entirely  to  the  field  of  electricity,  employing 
for  this  purpose  many  pieces  of  apparatus,  the  array  of  which  covered  the  entire  stage. 
Mr.  Morris  called  for  volunteers  to  assist  him.  Master  Ackley,  a  decidedly  small  one,^ 
offered  his  services.  A  number  of  bewildering  experiences  failed  to  unnerve  him. 
Other  boys  responded  to  the  call  until  six  in  all  graced  the  stago  as  possible  victims. 
Bennett  Strait  and  Art  Sorber  lent  a  hand.  The  latter,  as  usual,  injected  1he  comedy. 
After  disclosing  some  of  the  astonishing  possibilities  of  radio  in  the  future,  Mr. 
Morris  lectured  briefly  on  the  hoiTors  of  future  wars.  "The  money,"  he  said,  "used 
to  maintain  armies  and  navies  and  to  wage  war,  if  turned  to  fcficeful  rurtuit--^  would 
make  the  nations  more  prosperous  and  life  more  worth  living."

"With  the  Alumni 


/N  THIS  PART  of  the  Carontawan  is  presented  a  brief  sketch  of  former  Mansfield 
Noimal  graduates.  No  attempt  has  been  made  at  the  presentation  of  extended 
biographies,  but  merely  a  statement  is  given  as  to  the  whereabouts  and  doings 
of  former  students.  The  task  of  gathering  data  of  the  older  graduates  was  particularly 
difficult,  owing'  to  the  fact  that  no  class  histories  were  preserved.  Uniform  coui'tesy 
is  extended  to  those  who  replied  to  letters  of  inquiry  concerning  themselves  and  former 
classmates.  Some  mistakes  will  doubtlessly  be  discovered  in  some  of  the  sketches, 
due  to  the  fact  that  many  failed  to  furnish  the  necessary  data  and  that  much  of  the 
information  had  to  be  accepted   at  second  hand. 

It  is  well  to  note  that  Mansfield's  sons  and  daughters  have  played  important 
roles  in  all  of  the  world's  affairs:  the  state,  church,  business  and  all  of  the  professions. 
We  find  outstanding  alumni,  who,  during;  their  brief  time  at  Mansfield  Normal  ab- 
sorbed those  high  moral  ideals,  those  sound  principles  of  loyalty  and  decency,  and 
above  all  a  consideration  of  the  rights  and  interests  of  others.  These  qualities  are 
the  very  foundation  of  our  democracy  and  the  present  success  of  our  alumni  in  their 
various  fields  of  endeavor  can  be  traced  back  to  the  valuable  training  which  they 
received  at  their  Alma   Mater. 

One  year  ago  Giffoi'd  Pinchot,  who  was  then  holding  the  responsible  position

Bechtolb  Covers 


TgyHE  BEAUTIFUL  cover  of  this  Annual 
1|L  is  a  Becktold.  Because  it  is  a  Becktold 
^^  it  will  prove  durable  and  lasting  .... 
a  compliment  to  the  wisdom  and  farsighted- 
ness of  the  staff  in  charge. 

Becktold  covers  never  fail  to  lend  an 
atmosphere  of  true  quality.  The  handsome 
grain,  originality  of  design,  deep  embossing 
and  artistic  blending  of  colors  have  made 
this  cover  preferred.  On  these  qualities 
Becktold  has  built  its  reputation  for  com- 
plete satisfaction.
