ANDRIENE BAKER Broucl-I BORDER BORELLE BRACKEN Behold! Stan:ling on the shores of time we see in the distance a huge ship laden and old with cares, having fought and conquered for three toilsome years, the battles on the uncertain seas of life. Look! It is sailing slowly and quietly into the docks of the peaceful harbor of repose. Bow your heads in reverence as it draws nearer. Our hearts are overflowing with joy and in- spiration as We listen to the exciting adventures told by the crew of faithful fellowmen. Above all other noises the cry of stand by is heard. Here comes the Class of l94l. Three years ago our ship was new, setting out on a dangerous voyage with the guidance of hearty admirals, our teachers leading us through the storms of life, with the success here shown. Even though we are safe in this harbor, we have a greater voyage for the future ahead of us. Remember, keep your head up and face life with a smile. But let us retrace our steps of memory back to our first encounter with a new ship and passengers. The future looked rough and ex- citing. Three years ago a ship and sophomore passengers of Conemaugh Township High School began that long voyage on October 10, 1938. Im- mediately the following officers were elected: Doris Blough, captain, Frank Weaver, co-captaing Connie Carosello, secretary: Steve Kuchman, treasurer. The admirals chosen to guide us were john Kaufman and Carol Henderson. The first exciting event of the journey was the roller-skating party held by the new ship DON- BLouoH DORIS BLouGH BLOUCH BRENNAN BROWN CAPRFTTI at Bridge Street skating rink. Above us the noisy throng of wheels, happy voices could be heard telling us each and every one was having an enjoyable time. One of the most exciting and thrilling hap- penings on our voyage was the killing of a black snake by two of our passengers. It hap- pened in the biology room where the snake had coiled its body and pushed its enormous head against the lid of its quarters, seeking release from captivity. A scream was heard from the girls and instantly Clyde Iennings, who had left us for a different voyage on the sea, and Bob Law came to the rescue, grabbing the snake by the back of its neck. The snake twisted from the grasp of Clyde and bit him in the palm of his hand. Finally it was killed and is now safely kept in formaldehyde in the biology laboratory. Whew! What an exciting experience for that day. It is good to be on the quiet deck again and to listen to passengers telling interesting events in history. Harold Thomas gave a fine talk on world history. Iohn Richko and Steve Kosco, who also plays a clarinet in the band, both cooperated in giving interesting events of history. Our football team was certainly a success for a newly organized group. Eddie Maslanka, our backfieldman who was voted the best per- former in basketball in the St. Francis College tournament our junior voyage, made the first touchdown of the season. Congratulations to Eu- gene Stenger, our center, who has joined another ship on its voyage, for his fine work in football. f 4 ati
