One reason that working in modern schools is a discipline—far more difficult than any academic discipline—lies in the fine line that teachers and administrators must draw between what students are capable of doing and what they want the students to achieve.
Teachers must at one time accept the child for what he is and yet force him to be different and mold his own identity. Members of the faculty must shape attitudes, instill values, and correct misapprehensions. Being a teacher is being a part time parent only on a broader level.
Here in our town, school personnel maintain a firm relationship with the student body by always stressing that students should be pleased with their successes but never satisfied that they have reached their potential.

Teachers Assume Duties Beyond Classroom Work
DISCUSSiy G cover plans with Mr. Stewart of the Smith Company, Mr. Desanzo, yearbook sponsor, approves the staff’s choice.
A subtle newness characterized the Am-bridge Faculty this year. Of the 88 teachers on the school payroll, 20 were new this year. Coming to Amhridge from many different school systems, they brought new ideas and new methods to complement the established techniques in each department.
In addition to their jobs as instructors, teachers engaged in many other activities among themselves and with students.
Wednesday evenings, teachers competed in their own bowling league. They again sponsored Christmas and spring dinners.
Many teachers donated their spare time to sponsor student organizations, publications, and activities. On March 17, twelve male members of the faculty topped the intramural champion Houston Cougars in a charity basketball game to raise money for a memorial to the late principal, Mr. Hlista.
Faculty members also worked after school as coaches for Ambridge’s athletic teams.WALTER HEITZENRATER : Mechanical

Curriculum
Added Courses Stress
i
an Expanding Program
Up-dating subject matter and advising teachers on new techniques, Mr. Michael Mattuch, Director of Curriculum, helped instructors find better ways of guiding students in their educational advancement. He frequently met with teachers to discuss the newest teaching methods and to evaluate new textbooks.
As a supplement to classroom studies, the Curriculum Department maintained a wide selection of audio visual aids. Teachers were encouraged to use tape recorders and projectors to help students gain a better understanding of their classwork. Mimeographed materials to implement textbooks were readily available on request.
Student helpers distributed requested materials to faculty members.
By introducing calculus, dramatics, psychology, and sociology this year, the department continued its long-standing goal of not only offering introductory courses in all subjects, but in-depth studies also.
KEEPING faculty members supplied with audio visual aids and typing curriculum bulletins is a full-time job for Colleen Somar.

Miss Steinberg, a new member of the guidance staff, administered preference, aptitude, and IQ tests throughout the year.
Counselors informed students of the proper procedure for applying to institutions of higher learning and for securing financial aid. A large collection of college catalogues helped students gain basic information on more than 1000 undergraduate schools in the United States.
The Guidance Department arranged for the representatives from universities and other institutions to speak to interested juniors and seniors. In addition, they publicized work and scholarship programs to keep students informed of opportunities available after graduation.EMPLOYEES in the Business Office like Mrs. Batalik BEFORE distributing report cards to the homerooms, Mrs.

Ordering supplies for the school district, sorting the mail, and typing agendas for board meetings were just a few of the many duties that secretaries in the Superintendent’s Office performed each day.
Secretaries working in the Main Office handled most of the general business for the high school. They filed permanent records of students, mimeographed test papers, and distributed the daily announcements.
In the Finance Office, secretaries were mainly concerned with collecting money for school activities and cafeteria lunches. Personnel in the Business Office performed the bookkeeping for the school district.
To eliminate tardiness and unnecessary absence, workers in the Attendance Office helped Mrs. Peters keep records of absentees. They also typed the attendance reports and collected absentee slips to eliminate class cutting.
In the offices of Ambridge High, the personnel carried out many duties necessary to the smooth functioning of the school system.

Ailing students turned to the school nurses for treatment. Aiding two doctors and four dentists, Miss Stolar and Mrs. Albright helped give physical examinations to all juniors and varsity athletes. Tuberculine tests and eye tests were also administered. Students received hearing tests with a newly purchased machine.
Additional equipment helped cafeteria personnel prepare a wider variety of well-balanced lunches for over 600 students daily.

cademics
“And once in a while you could give me a kinda hint or two about one of those algebra problems. I don’t mean answers . . . just some little hint.”
Thirty years ago, students in our town who completed two years of algebra were considered members of an elite group that set academic excellence as its standard and going to college as its goal.
Today, students can set their sights on advanced courses in calculus, dramatics, psychology, and sociology.
To every student, our town presents many opportunities. Ambridge High offers its students the outstanding resources needed to develop their potential.
To many pupils our school holds forth the final training before becoming a productive worker in the community, to others the preparation for college, to all students the assurance that upon graduation they will become creative citizens.

Because of the increasing number of traffic fatalities each year, drivers’ education has proven itself essential for high school students.
Instruction was offered in two areas, auto theory in the classroom and auto driving in the school’s training cars.
Mr. Russell instructed juniors in auto theory. Classes met twice a week to discuss safe driving habits and attitudes.
Under Mr. Chapala’s supervision, many students tested and improved their driving skills through actual highway experiences. Students who completed this course were offered reduced rates on automobile insurance.
By applying what they learned in drivers’ education courses, students developed cautious and courteous attitudes for safe driving.
DRIVERS’ education students visit the chief-of-police to learn of Pennsylvania’s safety point system.
46Libraries
New Procedure Adds to Value of Libraries
“Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.” This statement by Joseph Addison suggests the important role that reading plays in every person’s life.
Each period, ten students from study halls were permitted to visit the library. The new procedure gave more students an oportunity to expose themselves to the great works of literature, research their assignments, and keep informed on current issues.
With the help of a federal grant, 400 new hardbacks and nearly 2,000 new paperbacks were added this year.
Each period, two students assisted Mrs. Campbell in the senior high library and Mr. Lebec in the junior high library to help students find information quickly and to repair damaged books.

“Do any human beings ever realize life while they live itf every, every minute?”
Life as Ambridge High School is just like life in Our Town, only on a smaller scale. Just as folks in Our Town have a marvelous opportunity to join in group activities, boys and girls at the high school can choose from all sorts of clubs.
Students can derive unique satisfaction by joining clubs. Boys and girls develop pride in their group and a sense of being part of something. Whatever their interests, students expand their viewpoints, enhance their talents, and make new friends through clubs.
Organizations that promote individual achievement and develop respect for different viewpoints impress students with the need for a broad background of interests. They help students to realize the most from their high school days.

Students Visit Cleveland to Attend Debate Clinic
“Our present draft system is totally unfair!” Contentions such as this provided the basic of weekly Debate Club meetings. Forty members met every Wednesday to argue the draft and other chosen topics.
With money raised by operating a football concession stand, members purchased literature concerning debating and the draft system. Some of the funds were used to defray the costs of a trip to Cleveland’s John Carroll University in October. There, students received instruction on the national debate topic and observed a sample debate. The club also visited other area schools.
Each semester, members did research or presented debates on selected topics. Students who wished to join in the second semester presented try-out speeches to qualify.
Debate members joined with the Fencing Club to sponsor a picnic at Sewickley Memorial Park on Saturday, November 17.

Usherettes
Girls Maintain Order at All School Events
Football and basketball games, school plays, concerts, graduation—these were but a few of the memorable events at which the Usherettes rendered their services. In all kinds of weather they welcomed football fans with a cheerful smile and directed them to their seats.
A useful addition to this year’s basketball games, usherettes prevented confusion by checking the reserved seat pass or ticket of everyone entering the gym floor.
Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Nawrocki, the usherettes held their annual bake sale at Jack and Jill Cleaners in October. The proceeds served to furnish senior usherettes with traditional chrysanthemum corsages worn for the Ambridge-Aliquippa football game.
Although this year the girls worked without the help of any male ushers, they helped maintain order at all school functions.Finance Committee
Girls Collect Tickets at School Programs
Rain or shine, Finance Committee members promptly arrived at their posts to sell and collect tickets at home football games. They also provided their services at school sponsored programs, plays, and concerts. Members assisted Mr. Horsman, the sponsor, in counting tickets before and after school functions and recording all money.
Senior girls on the Finance Committee received chrysanthemum corsages from Mr. Horsman in honor of Senior Night which was held on the night of the Ambridge-Al-iquippa football game.
Twenty-four members organized the Finance Committee at a formal meeting held at the beginning of September. At the only other formal meeting, officers were elected to serve for next year.

Student Workers Aid Guidance Counselors
Throughout the year, twelve guidance helpers worked at many different jobs. One of their main responsibilities was keeping the bulletin board up to date with the latest guidance information.
While working in the guidance office, they filed schedule cards, typed homeroom lists, and corrected IQ and aptitude tests. Helpers served as receptionists during lunch periods, ran errands for the guidance counselors, and printed guidance bulletins. These students also handed out results of college board and scholarship tests to juniors and seniors.
Producing “Opportunities Unlimited,” a course selection handbook also busied the guidance helpers. They distributed the booklets to underclassmen in the spring.
Guidance helpers proved invaluable in the efficient functioning of the Guidance Department.

Hall Monitors—Building Patrol
Students Keep Halls Quiet, Orderly Through School Day
Five minutes before the end of each period, members of hall patrol quietly left their classes and reported to their respective posts. Patrols turned on the hall lights and held open stairway doors which eliminated congestion in the halls. Mr. Chiaverini chose members of hall patrol on the basis of their reliability trustworthiness in all school tasks.
Hall Monitors kept the halls clear of unex-cuscd students by requiring all students to sign excuse slips at the nearest post. Monitors also checked locker permits of those students visiting their lockers between classes.
Both groups helped to prevent unnecessary confusion in the halls during and between classroom periods.

Silhouette
Staff Works to Raise Readership of Paper
Recapping the important events of high school life, the Silhouette aimed to keep students informed. Through the Student Comment” and editorial sections, students voiced opinions on school policies and current events.
To raise money for improving the paper, staff members sold bamboo jewelry during November and programs at all home basketball games. Increased funds enabled the Silhouette to return to the neater printed copy after having been mimeographed for some time.
Mr. Wyllie, school principal, met with the editor and junior staff members in December to discuss renovations in Silhouette production. After this meeting a journalism class for the newspaper staff was tentatively scheduled for next year’s curriculum.
Throughout the year staffers worked to raise the standards and readership of the paper.

Bridger Receives First ‘All-American’ Ratings
Editing the yearbook is a year-round task. During the summer, staff members began soliciting advertisements and planning the layout for this year’s edition. With the resumption of school in September, the staff met daily during the fourth period journalism class. Here they continued the process of writing articles, cropping pictures, and proofreading finished copy.
Following the suggestions of the National Scholastic Press Association, the Bridger staff adopted larger pictures throughout the book. The advertising section took on a new look with two-page running headlines. Increased student enrollment required 16 more pages in this year’s book, making it the largest Bridger ever published.
For the first time in the school’s history, the Bridger won the “All-American” Award of the National Scholastic Press Association for its 1968 edition.

“Soy, Bob, if I'm a little late, start practice anyway. And give Herb some long high ones.”
Perhaps the most striking example of competition in our town lies in the sports program at Ambridge High School.
Sports that used to be merely fun and games have taken on a new meaning for high school students. The arena has become a forum and the playing field a battleground between rival schools.
Interscholastic intramural and individual activities all serve to highlight a well-rounded program that includes competition in a wide range of sports.
Starting with football, golf, and cross country in the fall, athletes battle for individual and team honors. Varsity basketball, wrestling, baseball, track, and tennis and intramural sports help round a complete sports program.

Hopewell scored twice in the second quarter on long-pass plays and added another touchdown in the third quarter. Ambridge scored in the fourth quarter when Randy Hawn threw a 12-yard touchdown pass to Mark Matika, but it wasn’t enough as the Bridgers suffered their first defeat 20-13.

Ambridge traveled to Farrell for their next game. Sparked by crisp blocking and hard running, the Steelers took a 12-0 lead before Rich Iorfido scored on a 10-yard run in the third quarter. Farrell held off late Bridger scoring drives to edge Ambridge in a cliffhanger, 12-6.
Ambridge then hosted cross-river rival Aliquippa in an important game for both teams. The Bridgers scored first on a 31-yard field goal by John Edmondson. The half ended with the Bridgers leading 3-0. In the third quarter, following a sustained Bridget drive, Randy Hawn scored from the one yard line to give Ambridge a 9-0 lead. Aliquippa came back to score a touchdown on a long pass to make the score 9-7. With time running out in the fourth quarter, Aliquippa marched deep into Ambridge territory and attempted a game winning field goal. It was wide and Ambridge beat the rival Quips, 9-7.
In their first season under Coach Marocco the Bridgers compiled a 3-5 record with one tie.

“Every child born into this world is Nature’s attempt to make a perfect
human being”
DURING the morning homeroom period, Christine Miller visits the Senior High Library to eat eh up on her reading assignments.
My, has our town grown in the last fifty years—and the high school has grown right with it. Ambridge High has grown rapidly since the days of the ten-room First Ward School located at Old Economy. The high school has made much progress in developing its educational processes to meet the changing needs of the times.
But more important than any school buildings are the people in them. Students talking to friends or rushing through the halls transfigure mere buildings into a hub of activity.
In each grade, students meet many people, go many places, and participate in many programs to realize the most of their high school days and to develop as well-rounded individuals.
AFTER a busy day, hundreds of boys and girls file out of school at 3:30 to board busses for home.

“Up here is Main Street.”
Back in the days when our town was very young about the only roads were a few trails, and the only stores consisted of trading posts in the wilderness.
Along the banks of the mighty Ohio River sprang up a unique settlement that was developed as an experiment in communal living. Here, the Harmonites founded their famed Old Economy and developed a flourishing society that gave rise to modern Ambridge.
Purchased by the American Bridge Company in 1905, Economy took on its present name of Ambridge. Iron and steel industries centered in the Ambridge area making it one of the world’s leading producers of metal goods. Around the heavy industries grew up our modern town with its fine shopping district and recreational facilities.
CHRISTMAS lights and artful decorations brighten Merchant Street in the heart of the modern Ambridge commercial district.
IN Conway, just a few miles from Ambridge High School, lies the world's largest push-button rail yard.
