There are over 1500 separate individ- uals, all here for one purpose, disguised though it may sometimes seem, the purpose of learning. To teach them there exists what often appears to be a countless number of faculty members, and behind them stands the Board of Education, who in turn advises the administration. Besides the people, there is the intangible part of Allegany, the atmosphere it lends to all phases of school life-the friend- liness and the sincere effort to help. Every- where we find this atmosphere, on the campus, in the corridors, and in the classrooms. And everywhere we are beset by the immensity of our institution and the immensity of that which we started out to achieve. With every bit of information we pick up, we become a little more aware of our smallness as com- pared to the whole . . . we are but one of the many who are engaged in the pursuit of knowledge, but, if we have learned to the best of our ability, then we have accomplished what we set out to achieve. The faculty has done its part toward furthering us on our road . . . despite numerous quizzes and detention peri- ods, they have given us something wonderful for they taught us to understand our fellow human beings.

An ever-ready, "Hello, there" is their trade mark Whether you just pass them in the corridor or go to them with one of your num- erous problems. Every position requires tact and understanding as part of their every day routineg and these two qualities are an inher- ent part of their make-up. With the demand for high school trained workers mounting every day, they are faced with the ever-increasing task of directing the preparation of students to if we we r 'sf J ,Q ifiiifslfgf-E32 , if!

There is always a feature attraction like the Mirror - the dances of all kinds and sizes-those late evenings in the gym putting up the crepe paper streamers for the function on the next night-the publication of the Allegewi-the choosing of the Allegewi Queen-her thrilling reign, cut all too short by the coronation of new royalty at the next big social affair. Getting up for Monday classes as you think of the weekend just past and wonder-the Twirp Dance when the gals stood for the whole bill-the Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y Dance when he had to pay-the Iunior-Senior Prom-Class Play-Class Night-the excitement of the Sen- ior Prom-Commencement-all of these events contribute to the atmosphere of Allegany and help to make that atmosphere exceed the aca- demic . . . you will remember the highlights of your life at Allegany, and the spirit which penetrates lar beyond the classroom. ,,W. xl:- P :lA H , M 1 SQ ' 1 vu.. v, Ax Vg A ' if .-Fifi?

Club members collect tissue- wrapped canned goods and cash donations from the pupils of Allegany High. Baskets are then prepared for delivery to the needy fam- ilies ot the community. "Your Pep!" Yes, "You've got it, now keep it!" at the pep-meeting before the Thanks- giving Day Game, the whole student body urged the team to continue its great record and to beat Fort Hill. The Alcohi Mirror issues a special Thanks- giving Edition featuring the Football Team, Miss Campera IV, and the annual Turkey Day Game. Many teachers, many students, and many boosters used this medium to express best wishes lor the team. Here is a part of the 8,200 people who witnessed the Thanksgiving Day Game and saw I-llco tie Fort Hill 7-7. Many who saw the contest say that I-Xlco should have won. Dot M e a g h e r reigns as Miss Campera, IV at the Turkey Day Game. Her Court of Honor included Shelby Witt from the Iunior Class, Billie lean Rowe from the Senior Class, Faye Liller from the Sopho- more Class, and B a r b a r a Mann from the Freshman Class. Fort Hill's An- drews carries the leather in the Big Game of the year. Gaither attempts to bring him down as Kirtley comes forward to assist. Ida tLinda Ever hartl and Lon tRichard Iohnsonl play a little love scene in "Meet Me in St. Louis"-the annual A. D. K. production. The Highlanders entertained us in assembly and we learned a lot about Scotland. As winter came Coach Bowers un- veiled another great basketball team. 5 Muzi 'Q 1.

Who are those busy people whose names appear in the Alcohi Mirror as sponsoring a school event, directing an extra-curricular activity, starring in a new play, writing the spirit of Allegany between the lines of their publications? They are the school leaders: they could be you. For the activities of Allegany are not closed organizations, open only to a select few. They are there waiting for any and all willing to devote a little of their time and effort. And you will have a wonderful time as you make your contribution . . . those dead- line days spent haggling in the Allegewi room . . . those terrific rehearsals for the shows . . . those lovely voices from Rooms 218 and 220 as the musical groups practice for the Spring Concerts . . . those brisk fall afternoons outdoors as the drum-majorettes do their fancy stepping in preparation for next Saturday's game . . . the hectic times spent in reaching a Mirror deadline . . . studying the activities of the United Nations .. . . planning for World Peace . . . French Club and Spanish Club . . . taking and developing our own pictures . . . posters, posters, posters . . . and then the final culmination of all their efforts as the members are awarded the school letter for outstanding work. A high school career spent between the covers of a book is not complete: it is the activi- ties which make for the well-rounded school life and a well-rounded student able to meet the demands of our modern world. allegewi of '54 In recording the year's activities at Allegany, the Allegewi has lacked noth- ing in potential material. Everyday some new and unusual event was taking place. We have tried to portray these event as they affected the student's life. Although all yearbooks must contain essentially the same material, it is the hope of each editor and staff to produce a book as different as possible from any previously published. This year's book is different-it is also unique. It is the prod- uct of genius, sometimes mad, sometimes misguided, but nevertheless genius. The Allegewi has gone modern in every sense of the Word-layout, type, copy, photog- raphy, and cover.

Bigger and better describes the 1953- 54 Alcohi Mirror. Student activities were given more publicity than ever before-covered for their news value and not as an obliga- tion. Under the leadership of Marilyn Kreid- er, the paper remained constructive and critical, its features were sparked by the Wit and humor of Peggy Dye, its news policy Was as truthful as the staff could make it, its Sport Department capably covered major and minor athletic events.

Allegany's athletic program is founded upon one thing, the ideal of good sportsman- ship, and it is with this ideal that all athletic events are carried out, whether it be the Championship contest in Basketball or an in- tramural game fought over the muddy ground of the athletic field. When we think back on the fall season, we are warmed by the mem- ories of those Friday and Saturday evenings in Fort Hill Stadium, as with hoarse but jubi- lant voices we cheered the Blue and White on . . . the anxiety, and the final joy as we watched our team emerge victorious .... But football must share laurels with basketball . . . and again, we delighted in the play and the triumphs of the Camper five . . . baseball fol- lowed and we were just as happy cheering for the Alco nine . . . and then came Track . . . and we were pleased with the efforts of the cinder artists .... Truly, we are mighty proud of all our teams. We are likewise proud of our intramural schedules . . . and the Girls' Athletic Association, which sponsors athletic contests for the fairer sex is deserving of our praise .... We are happy to be a small part of the sports program at Allegany High School . . . for each sport is founded upon and upholds our ideals of democratic play and good sports- manship which Allegany upholds at all times. if ' X QQ "' iss?

The Clippers walked off with a hard-earned 12-6 decision. More than 5,300 fans saw Lester's Campo- bello eleven surprise the Baltimore Champions with a second-period TD in a display of power that gave the game an upset tinge. However, the Clippers fought back after the sting, tied the score shortly before the half, and then took to the air early in the third quarter for the victory margin. Ioyce and Rank were standouts in the back- field while Wisler and Hadra were particularly effective on the forward wall. ALLEGANY FLATTENS BEALL The Lestermen scored their first victory of the season at the expense of Beall High. Alco's pow- erhouse, held at bay for almost three periods by a series of penalties, broke loose for three late touchdowns to overwhelm an inept Beall High team, 28-0, before a packed stadium of Frostburg. The Campers of Coach Roy Lester jumped the snap on the line and in the backfield eleven times to nullify four touchdowns which cost the team 95 yards in rushing. Two other 5 yard penalties were plastered on the Blue and White during the afternoon to set the Campobello machine back a total of 105 yards. REVENGE OVER THE HUBS The Lestermen scored their second win of the season as they rolled to a convincing, 20-6, win over the Hubs of Hagerstown. In marking up the victory, the Campers dem- onstrated their power by marching to three touch- downs and just falling short on another occasion. The victory was the first a Blue and White eleven has scored in four years over a team coached by Mel Henry. Iunior halfback Bucky Rice was the star of the show with a 55 yard punt return for a TD in addition to another touchdown jaunt. Dick Rank scored the other six-pointer for the Lestermen. Rank and Hixenbaugh converted for extra points. CAMPERS STOP KEYSER Alco's mercurian, fly-weight half-back, "Bucky" Rice ran wild as the Campers defeated Keyser, 26-7. Rice, besides scoring Allegany's first touch- down weaved and faked his 140 pounds through the huge Keyser line for l43 yards in 21 rushing attempts. It was Rice who sparked every Alco scoring drive. Statistically, Keyser was never in the game. Allegany led in first downs, 16-3, net yards rush- ing, l93-42g and passing yardage, 78-41. This exhibition of power was an index of things to come. The Alco team was ready for all comers including the opponent of them all-Fort Hill High School. -4-4 SISK, Guard RANK, Halfback IOYCE, Halfback REIBER, End BEERMAN, Tackle REYNOLDS, Guard WISLER, Tackle HADRA, Center GAITHER, Guard f K 1 "QE 4 X .fx xfykvwif' KIRTLEY, Quarierback WELLER, End HOFFMAN, Quarterback WARTZACK, Fullbcck ROYCE, TGCk1e PUHALLA, fullback RICE, Hczlfback KYLUS, Guard LOWERY, End ALLEGANY TOPS MONTGOMERY BLAIR Bob Kirtley, who did everything but carry the water and towel on the field, was Alle- gany's "man of the hour" as the Campers tallied with only 45 seconds remaining to win over a strong Montgomery-Blair football team from Sil- ver Spring. Kirtley was little short of perfect as he backed up the line on defense, played offensive guard. offensive fullback, offensive quarterback and en- gineered the Campers to two touchdowns. With only 45 seconds, ticking away on the scoreboard clock, halfback Eddie Ioyce rocked his way into pay-dirt from the two yard line to give Allegany its hard earned victory, 13-6. THE BULLDOGS GROWL A determined Camper eleven, seeking their fifth straight victory, invaded Martinsburg, W. Va. The Martinsburg Bulldogs were out to stop the Marylanders and, as a result of this feeling, local fans witnessed a fierce gridiron battle as Alle- gany finally turned the tide with a l3-0 victory. Allegany tallied its first six-pointer in the first period after a poor Martinsburg punt was re- turned to the Bulldogs own 30 yard line. Five plays later, Eddie Ioyce smashed over from the six to score and Rank added the conversion. It was not until the middle of the final stanza that Bob Kirtley was able to direct the final score. Hoffman, Rank and Beerman stop a Patterson Park player as Alco loses its first game, 12-6. ALLEGANY EDGES LA SALLE A 53 yard march, spearheaded by Quarter- back Bob Kirtley's running and passing gave the Campers a fourth period TD and a thrilling, 7-5, victory over a determined band of La Salle gridders. Kirtley plunged over from the one to cap the sustained drive and then surprised the Explorers with a pass to End Bob Reiber for the game-win- ning extra point. In one of the most exciting and hard fought contests of the season between the evenly match- ed teams, a crowd of 5,500 saw La Salle tally first early in the third period, on a 34 yard run by Fullback Hudson, to take a 6-0 lead. The all-important extra point try was fumbled by Hudson, holding for Kegg to kick, as Alle- gany's defense smothered the play. ALCO "OUT-SKATES" ELKINS The weather outside was frightful, but it could not stop the Campers as they "out-slid" the El- kins Tigers, 20-0, to record their seventh straight victory. Before less than l,000 fans, who braved the snow-blizzard weather, Allegany struck with sudden fury as the game got underway and from then on held the Tigers at bay as Alco registered three TD's in the driving snowstorm which at times made visibility almost impossible. Kirtley again was the star of the game be- cause of his generalship in directing the plays. Ioyce, Wartzach and Lowery scored the touch- downs. Rank added two extra pionts. The Campers completely dominated the sta- tistical department, holding the Elkins team to a net yardage of 38 yards on the ground and 9 through the air, while they chalked up 151 yards rushing and 30 yards by air. Eighty Two Weller nears pay-dirt and Alco's lone touchdown as Beerman protects the play. "Bucky" Rice pi:ks up yardage although interference is definitely missing. ALCO TIES FORT HILL, 7-7 Allegany and Fort Hill shared City Cham- pionship honors as the two stubborn gridiron powers battled to a thrilling 7-7 deadlock. It was the first time since 1948 that a Camper eleven could halt the charges of the mighty Hahnmen. A tense crowd of 8,200 sports enthusiasts witnessed the 26th Thanksgiving Day Classic. Climaxing a 70 yard Alco drive in the second period, "Nook" Weller crashed the scoring col- umn on an end-around play. Dick Rank added the placement. A Fort Hill scoring attempt, late in the same period, was frustrated when Iim Hoffman intercepted a pass in the Allegany end zone and returned the ball to his own 17 yard line. Deep in the third quarter, Fort Hill lost the ball on downs at the Allegany fifteen. On the Linda Lowe - next play Kirtley picked up ten yards, but a pen- alty set the ball back on the Campers' ten. Dick Bittner pounced on an Allegany fumble and the Sentinels took over on the two. The Lestermen put up a valiant goal line stand for three downs, but it was not enough as Ralph Poling smashed to pay-dirt. Gene Weber's boot tied the score and that Was the ball game. The Sentinels failed to score a first down by rushing but completed six of nine passes for five first downs and 78 yards. They made their sixth first on a Camper penalty. The Campers collected six of their nine first downs on the ground for 132 yards rushing, two firsts were the results of penalties and one was by way of the airlanes.

At intermission, Alco's slim 30-25 edge indicated a close game but the sharp shooting Campers racked up 39 markers to make the victory decisive. D a v e Steele copped scoring honors with 18 points.

ANNIHILATING THE ALUMNI Alco's Alumni surrendered, 68-53, to a stub- born Camper five. It was really a foul-fest as 52 personals were called on the two teams. The Alumni outscored the school boys from the floor but the Bowersmen cashed in on 34 of 46 attempts at the foul line. Hoffman paced the Campers with 21 points. ROUTING LA SALLE Allegany's cage-men couldn't miss as they started the New Year by routing I..a Salle, 7l-48. The Campers collected 24 field goals in 60 at- tempts for a phenomenal .400 percentage. Dave Steele awed local fans by meshing ll of l4 tries for baskets and collected 4 for 4 at the free-throw line. SUBDUING THE BLACKHAWKS The Ridgeley High Blackhawks were "clay- pigeons" for the sharp shooting Campers as Alco easily defeated Ridgeley, 60-33. Ridgeley took a short-lived lead in the first period of play. Then the Alcomen pulled ahead and, during the last period, Alco's reserves car- ried the battle to a successful end. Hoffman led the scoring with I5 points. SCALPING THE INDIANS The High Scoring Allegany Five extended its winning streak to 8 consecutive victories at the expense of Mt. Savage, 67-29. This was the first varsity cage tilt that Alco staged with Mt. Savage-the Indians being new- comers in the W. M. I. League. Hoffman and Steele shared scoring honors, each collecting I8 points. LOSING THE FIRST ONE The Beall High quint rose to the calibre of champions and defeaetd Allegany in an over- time period, 57-52. Alco lead at the end of the first three quarters but, in the final period, Beall staged a mighty splurge to tie the score and then Went on to win in the extra stanza. VANISHING VALLEY HIGH The Campers rebounded with a vengence to rout Valley High, 88-45. Hoffman was the big of- fensive punch as he rang the bell l2 times from the floor and 6 of 9 times at the foul line. Twelve Alcomen saw action in the defeat of Valley High. DREAM GAME 1,200 spectators crowded the Piedmont High Gym to see the Bruce Bulldogs wrestle the Bow- ersmen for leadership in the W. M. I. League race. Dick Rank's heroic set-shot in the last 37 seconds of play gave Alco victory, 47-46. Thrills, statistics, and satisfied fans have given to this event the name of "Dream Game of l954." RUNNING OVER THE RED RAIDERS Fort Hill High's Red Raiders were "red" as they left Campobello after being thoroughly whipped, 65-47. The Sentinels closely trailed the Campers in the first half with the scoreboard reading 30-23 at intermission. From there on out, it was the Bowersmen all the way.

Dick Rank was the big gun for Allegany as he collected 23 markers. LOWERING LA SALLE LaSalle tried valiantly to avenge an earlier set-back by the Campers, but it was to no avail as the Bowersmen topped the Irish, 51-49, on the Sts. Peter and Paul's Court. The Alcomen led throughout the game but never pulled. further than 7 points ahead of the losers. With this victory, Allegany won its third con- secutive City Crown.

Second row-Edward Timmons, Manager, Donald Shir cliffe, Glendon Kline, Donald Purdue, Ronald Wolfe, Ronald Leib, Richard Iohnson, Warren White, Donald Puhalla, Bruce Tierney, Roy Lester, Coach, THE SEASON The 1953 Track Season at Allegany found a new head coach in charge. It was Roy Lester, head football coach and former West Virginia University athlete. With better luck, the Camper thin-clads might have posted a more impressive record. As it was, the Alcomen were only mediocre in the six meets. Bad luck hit the Campers in their first meet. a dual contest with Beall, when a Wet and rainy track limited the field events which may have turned the tide in Alco's favor. The final outcome was 57-57. Allegany's fastest man Charles Eirich ran in only three meets which certainly did not enhance the Campers' scoring opportunities. Eirich was little short of sensational in the meets in which he did participate, running the 100 yard dash in 10.2 seconds and the 220 in 23 seconds in the important County Meet. The biggest track disadvantage at the Campo- bello school was the lack of a suitable track and practice field.

OFF TO A GOOD START The Campers opened their 16 game schedule by defeating Central, 4-3, at Campobello. The game was a pitchers' duel with a total of six hits and twenty strike-outs in the contest. Freshman Harry Iser was the winning pitcher. DOWN GOES MT. SAVAGE Mt. Savage was the next victim to bow to "Hubie" Radcliffe's Alco nine as the Campers dumped the Indians, 7-3, at Mt. Savage. Iser chalked up his second straight win. LOSING THE FIRST ONE "Chuck" Eirich, taking a fling at pitching for the first time, got his first starting assignment against La Salle and lost, 8-6. Kirtley of Allegany and Shuck of La Salle belted homers. BEATING THE BULLDOGS The Campers upped their Bi-State Conference record to 3-l by beating "Augie" Eichorn's Bruce Bulldogs, ll-6, at Allega.ny's field. Eirich belted a homer and three singles in four trips to the plate. Iser was credited with the win, his third in a row. SCALPING THE INDIANS Iser continued to flash great form as he threw a five-hitter at Iohn Thomas' Mt. Savage Indians to win, 6-3. In racking up his fourth victory, Iser also had two hits. "Bucky" Rice contributed two bingles in the Alco attack. TOO MUCH CENTRAL Alco dropped its second game of the season, 4-3, as they managed to get only two hits off Cen- tral's Iack Brodie. "Chuck" Eirich was the losing hurler. ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT Bob Dawson, getting his first starting assign- ment of the season for the Campers, pitched great ball but lost a heart-breaker, 2-U, to the Fort Hill Sentinels. It was the Campers fourth loss in a row. A home-run, over the centerfield fence by Shaffer of the Sentinels, was the deciding hit in the contest. ISER WEAKENS AGAINST BEALL Beall High's Mountaineers finally broke Iser's magic spell, 8-5, as they jumped on him during the early innings. Bob Dawson, who took the hill in the third inning, did a masterful pitching job. The damage, however, had already been done. Eirich had another field day with a homer, a triple, and a single in four trips to the plate. BEALL GOES ON A RAMPAGE Beall again bested the Campers as they got 15 runs and a like number of hits to record a 15-5 victory. Ten big runs crossed the plate in the third frame for Beall as Eirich dropped his third game. Kirtley with a double and Eirich with a homer paced the Alco hitters. THE SLUMP'S THE THING The Campers continued their slump as the La- Salle Explorers bested Iser, 10-6. Iim Hoffman had a triple and a single to pace the Alco batsmen. This was Alco's third loss, in City play. GOING DOWN, DOWN, DOWN Hyndman provided the opposition for Alle- gany in the next encounter. They soundly trounced the Campers, 12-5, as Iser lost his third straight game. Eirich had a homer, a triple, and a single to provide a bright spot in an otherwise gloomy game. THE WORM TURNS Hyndman returned the visit two days later and fell to "Hubie" Radcliffe's charges, B-2, as Bob "Fat" Boy" Dawson hurled superb ball. Hoff- man had a homer and a single and Freshman Rodney Breedlove had two hits to set the pace for Alco. EIRICH WINS HIS FIRST GAME "Chuck" Eirich chalked up his first win as the Campers downed Bruce, 8-6, in Westernport. Iim Hoffman and Rodney Breedlove socked two hits each to lead the Alco nine. GOING TO TOWN Apparently having shaken their losing ways, Radcliffe's boys recorded a 10-9 decision over Flintstone with Iser getting his fifth win of the year. Iser was also the big gun with the bat as he rapped out two triples and a double. Eirich helped out with three singles. SAME OLD SENTINELS The Campers closed the season by losing to Fort Hill, 7-3, on the Sentinels' field. Iser hit a two-run homer for the Campers and, according to Bobby Cavanaugh, the Sentinels' Coach, it was the longest homer ever hit on the Fort Hill diamond. Dawson was charged with the loss.
