HARRY C. IOHNSTON Acting Principal THE AIM OF ADAMS HIGH SCHOOL BY MR. H. C. IoHNs'roN Our high school says "good-bye" to the seniors with the hope that some of its purposes will be reflected in their lives. We hope that our school has not only prepared them for some future work, but that it has also taught them the values of such things as good-sportsmanship, lair play, tolerance, and friend- ly relationships with others. We should always remember that the basic aim of true education is to help people to lead lives that are personally happy and socially useful. Eight DUTY AT DR. E.

ELTON SALIX SE IIJH C 55 HISTUHY In 1941, one hundred forty-one freshmen entered Adams High. The declaration of war in December made many activities impos- sible but they didn't miss the Halloween party given for them by the juniors. As sophs they were not given the tradi- tional Valentine party by the seniors. Upperclassmen now. Only 90 students reached this position. It was their turn to treat the Frosh to a Witch party and en- tertain the seniors at the prom. They pre- sented the play Adam's Evening. By the middle of their senior year twen- ty-three of the enrolled seventy-eight had left to join various branches of the service and to enter college. They celebrated Valen- tine Day in Ianuary because of those who were to leave soon. Mr. Miller C. Hood ad- vised these seniors. In February they pre- sented the play Brother Goose under the di- rection of Mrs. Hilda B. Smith. ffl X Behold at last ,A f"' Each tall and tapering mast X ls swung into its placeg I X EA , X - Shrouds and stays ,,, vqffdfl. H, w,,.

Again this year Mr. Sam Plummer advised this group. To help them choose and prepare for their careers, the sophs took prefer- ence tests. The seniors treated them on Ianuary 19 to a Valentine party with the added spice of farewells, to the boys leaving for the services. Freshman Class Histnry Outnumbering every other class this year is the freshmen class which has one hundred and one members, many of whom will well remember those first few day in high school. The time when a she freshman, very much disgusted with the many halls and doors, asked an upper classman the route to the band room and following directions found herself in the boy's shower room or the time when a he freshman was directed to the home ec room instead of the shop. Remember the snake dance in which all freshies, feeling foolish, took part. In October these freshmen attended the Halloween party given for them by their fellow classmen, the juniors. Freshman class adviser is Mrs. Ruth Robine, girls' gym teacher, ,G X -.- fxfxx .- iv? " " W" 'f-' --V-Y-- :- , -f Q . " by ggff 'C f,,1 , -4 i n i .-.QC vivifx-Nj . .. if ,N .

Twenty Nina Views of Adamsites Highlights in the '44-'45 fashions tound a sate harbor at Adams. To keep the cold Winter weather out-stadium boots . . . bunny gloves . . . sheep-lined aviator coats . . . Navy Peacoats . . . head scarves imoth- er's tablecloths had nothing on them eitherl were worn by the girls. Pads kept in tempo with the Armed Forces with emblems . . . insignias . . . wings . . . bars . . . khaki shirts and trousers . . . identiiication bracelets . . . ankle chains . . . dog tags belonging to someone in the serv- ice . . . novelty pins . . . Navy and khaki slacks. Again mother's kitchen was robbed. This time for teaspoons so that fashionable teen- agers could have bracelets. BRACELETS- the more on at one time the better! The Thirty lassies' lovely hair were adorned with bar- retts of all kinds-personality and floral. Ioes and lanes got together on the long shirt idea. Some of the couples around the school had sport shirts alike. Really groovy! Slick-chicks turned to the bare-legs policy --no anklets . . . paint . . . play shoes. But bobby socks still had their niche in the world of fashions. Dresses for spring and summer had the motto "the brieter the better." They featured cap sleeves . . . sweetheart necklines . . . drawstring tops . . . abbreviated skirts . . . square necklines. Smooth sweaters, peasant blouses and drindl skirts were by no means neglected .... Boys wore loaiers as well as girls. Shoes Wore a more polished look than usual.

CONEMAUGH Through the loads of mud at the point the stingers plunged for a 13-6 victory over Conemaugh's Iron Horses. Utz broke away for a long run to a touchdown. Then Don Miller kicked for an extra point and later ran 52 yards for another six points. WINDBER Windber's eleven scored over the Adams Teamsters for the second lose of the season. The Hornets made the first score but a touch- down and an intercepted pass for the oppo- nents spelled defeat. IOHNSTOWN CATHOLIC The Blue Hornets pinned an 18-7 defeat on the Crimson Crushers for the second Win at the Point. An extra point put the oppo- nents ahead but Utz ran around end 30 yards for a goal. Then late in the fourth frame Miller plunged for another six points. PORTAGE TOWNSHIP Undefeated Portage Townshipers stayed on top when they turned the Hornets back for a second defeat in a row. FRANKLIN Even with a completely different starting line-up Adams overran the Franklin Blue- Iays. Touchdowns were made as a re- sult of the Iay's penalties. LILLY First downs and lengthy marches brought a victorious end to the Armistice Day game against Lilly. Lewis and Bill Varner sat in the sidelines with injuries.
