My frame has been severely knocked about during all these years of publica- tion by the various staffs. Although my real self, the var- ,iff LX X ious sPEcTAroRs 1 produced through- t X out the years, has f C' X been fondly cher- QW ished by some, f carefully framed X gl gi by others, and fag N l tenderly placed in souvenir trunks by many, there are some of my buyers who have thrown me into a far distant corner where I have taken a severe beating. After be- ing the receiver of such harsh treatment for some fourteen years, I have decided to remedy the matter. Meanwhile, I have also sat back and watched my friends, the inanimate objects all over the school, being mistreated or abused by ' some of you. Qwv-4 ff f s N . 19' Al, I Since we have X95-0. N ' -Q all been pestered I ' -1 T? W by you, we have - -1- banded together, given ourselves life, taken pen, ink, and paper, and recorded our ex- periences during the year. These state- ments have been published in this book by our relatives. friends, and associates in the printing company. -- ' 4 ',,. The ruler over our essays, The Great Idea, who checks each one to see that it conforms to the rules or laws of our organization, was originated last spring in Room 404 by our talented secretary, Mr. Lead Pencil, Q' iilrfff in the hands of the editor, Graff. The Idea has present at meeting of Ralph Great been every our organizations, which we have named The Union of Iohnstown High School's Mistreated Inanimate Objects. Incorporated, and has given each ar- ticle in this book his personal attention. Besides the articles proclaiming our grievances, our secretary and our vice president, who is an excellent artist, have collaborated and produced sketches showing the miseries which we go through when we are abused. ----f - We have plac- ed many of the essays in the feature section with pictures by , A. Camera, our ', ace photographer, and sketches by Mr. A. Pen, and Mr. Lead Pencil. In the Activities Section, my friends the inani- mate objects connected with the clubs of our schools have told the story of their experiences during the school year.

You have attained your high school graduation, toward which you have been working for four years. When you began your course, this goal probably seemed far distant. However, for those who have work that challenges them to the best that they are capable of doing, time passes quickly. Let us look at graduation from high school from the standpoint of attainment. Ac- cording to statistics, out of every one hundred pupils who enter the first grade only fifty enter high school. From this group, only ten are graduated. Therefore, you are a select group. You have qualities and characteristics that are worthwhile, you have mastered that which has confronted you thus far in life. Many of you will continue your education in institutions of higher learning. More- over, not every high school graduate has this privilege. Statistics show that only three out of every ten who are graduated from high school enjoy this privilege. You, then, who go to school should prepare for greater service because of your increased training. Those of you who do not enter college will find other worthwhile goals. To whatever you select, may you give the same quality of effort that you have displayed in your high school work. Always keep the goal of service before you. Wealth, fame, and honor, if attained. may pass away quickly. But true satisfaction and joy will crown the efforts of those who have kept before them the thought that We live to serve. My sincere wish is that you may be successful and happy in whatever your life work may be. May we cherish in our hearts the memories of our association in high wmdww school. MR. DAVIS With the advent of the present school year, Iohnstown High School received a new administrator in the person of Walter Clark Davis, former principal of Cochran Iunior High School. Mr. Davis is thoroughly qualified for his new position. as the following brief biography will prove. After receiving his early education in the schools of St. Clair New Florence, he was graduated from Muskingum Academy. Three received his bachelor of science degree from Muskingum College. In was granted his master of education degree from the University of has also taken courses at Pennsylvania State College. Our new principal has been the science department. He was secondary schools for three years. gan at Garfield in 1933, where, ne Davis was transferred to Cochran 1940 when he came to Senior High School.

This is due to the tireless efforts of the ad- ministrators, who accomplish a variety of tasks, including ordering and distribution of supplies cmd books, making out reportsg schedul- ing of yearly programs of each stu- dent, checking upon pupils' atten- dance, and awarding of scholar- ships. Complete supervision of Iohns- town High School rests in the hands of this department. Even though we may not come into direct Contact with the admin- istrators, and therefore are often not aware of the work they are accom- plishing, we feel their presence by the efficiency with which the school is governed. Every student may be sure that they are always working competently, with his benefit their chief concern. Miss l,x.ms Li.

It is a good thing that all there is to be taught of English does not have to be crowded into one year! Pity the poor pupil it this were so, and pity also the teachers who would have to organize such Work. As it is, the English department of Iohnstown High is very helpful in aiding students to acquire a valu- able background in literature, and a sizable knowledge ot the use of the English language, as it is written and as it is spoken. FOREIGN LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT Parlez-vous francais? Habla usted espanol? Veni, vidi, vici. Guten Tag, Mein Herr. No, We are not in Europe, but rather in the Foreign Language Depart- ment of Iohnstown High School. Many of the pupils Who find a foreign language difficult never realize the Work that this department puts in, trying to make the study of the language interesting and understandable. Fundamentals of grammer are not the only points brought out in a language class. ln the Latin classes pupils study the military campaigns of Caesar, the orations of Cicero, the Aeneid of Virgil, and the Writings of lesser Roman poets. The French classes read Victor Hugo's Les Miserables. Spanish students read the adventures of Cortez in Mexico. German classes enjoy, among the poetry, Der Erlkonigf' or the singing of Die Lorelei. Italian students read the classics of that language. Through these stories, poems, and essays the pupils further their know- ledge of the language itself, its uses, the countries Where it is spoken, and their history and customs. Truly, the work of the Language De- partment is listed among the most edu- cational and interesting subjects in our high school. 14 f A K x H al Wet HISTORY DEPARTMENT Do you know who the first king ot England Was, what great general sighed for more worlds to conquer, who won the Franco-Prussian war, what the importance 'ot the tree press is, or how a bill becomes a law in the United States? It you've had any social science, you should be able.to answer at least one of those questions, for 6533. IU!- our history department covers all phases of world development in its courses in American, Ancient, and Medieval history and in the Problems ot Democracy. American history and Problems of Aww Democracy deal chiefly with the United States and her sister republics. Ancient and English history are enlargements on two phases of Medieval history, taught for the convenience ot those students who were not able to take it previously. I is ZZZZZ 5 ll l Iss Sa l r, V.: l MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT A circle is a closed curve all points of which are in the same plane and are equally distant from a point in the plane called the center. The side of angle A equals the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse. The square root of four is two and the square of six is thirty-six. Why all the complicated definitions? you may ask, The reason is that these are a few of the important axioms which the teachers of the Mathematics Depart- ment try to help us understand. Making complicated formulas, involved defini- tions, and difficult calculations clear to each student is the main Work of these teachers. The vocational students are taught shop mathematics by Mr. Ralph Gillmang while Mr. Ross Benshoff and Mr. Nevin Smith instruct their pupils in alge- braic calculations, geometric principles, and trigonometric functions. The pupils learn to express themselves clearly and concisely and to solve many of the prob- lems which they will meet later on. Therefore, if you wish to have some complicated figures explained clearly and carefully, see the Mathematics Depart- ment. SCIENCE DEPARTMENT What is that queer smell? is the usual query ot the newcomer who has yet to be inirocluced to a certain section of our science department. The tre- quently given answer, Oh that is just the chemistry classes messing around! is only partly true. It is the chemistry classes, but they are not messing 3s. Ii is S the ss 3?

Two other courses in the science de- partment, physiography and physics, deal with natural laws and are puzzles that only time, patience, and effort can solve. 17 W Mvllu Kunkl R x 11 'V HEALTH DEPARTMENT There is one department in Iohnstown High School which is set distinctly apart from all others. This part of the program deals with the physical side of the stu- dents, rather than the mental side. It is known as the Health Department. The nurse, gym teachers, and coaches who compose it see that every student in the school is physically fit. In special classes pupils are taught how to distin- guish and prevent the different types of diseases, how to participate in active, healthful sports, and how to perform simple exercises which build up all parts of the body. Every year the medical staff conducts an examination of all the stu- dents, in which eyesight, hearing, heart- beat, and dental care are tested. These tests and courses help each student to produce a sound mind in a healthful body, so that he may be phy- sically fit for future citizenship. Below you see the type of exercises in which the girls take part during their gym periods. Active participation in such sports will insure these girls against sickness. Swing high, swing low! 18 5233 Rodgers fl. Wciql Rutledge Shaffer FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT Lights! Camera! Action! The scene is laid in a luxurious living room.

The music depart- ment could furnish the sott melody, the room could be decorated by the interior decorating classes. The art department could paint the lovely garden and the dra- matics students could Well supply the actors. All of these departments came under one head in our school-the tine arts department, whose aim it is to create a keen appreciation for the tiner things ot lite and to help students bring out special and sometimes hidden talents. 19 Mr. Fisher Mr. Boyer M Sh p N R h Nfl. lN1urg1.iu Miss Sttlvlwll Mis I h M C h t lvl l lt lkllss ffullltnn Miss lfuqhrs M H ll M H ul Nl DEPARTMENT The largest department in high school is the Commercial Department, which trains pupils for Work in the various fields of business. They may become private secretaries, stenographers, bookkeepers, typists, file clerks, bankers, or sales clerks after completing some of the various courses presented in this department. Practical office training in the senior shorthand and typing classes helps to produce stenographers. Courses in book- keeping, economics, commercial law, and salesmanship lead to many positions in the business World. One of the important phases of this department is the placement service con- ducted by Miss Clarissa Hills, head of the department, who helps to find posi- tions for many graduates. SALESMANSHIP This is the latest creation, patterned after the styles pre- dominant in the World of fashion this year. Could this speech come from a millinery store, a depart- ment store, a clothing store, or a shop of some kind? It it doesn't, just what is it? One of the pupils of a salesrnanship class is demon- strating her sales ability. In this class the correct methods of approaching a pros- pective customer, producing the articles to be sold, and giving a speech which will sound convinc- ing enough to sway the customer into buying the article are taught. Demonstrations are held in class during which the pupils practice their accomplishments on each other. Very chic! Cant run! 21 Miss Hauch demonstrates Shorthand BOOKKEEPING One of the most important subjects in the Commercial Course is bookkeeping. This study teaches the pupils intending to become future businessmen and busi- nesswomen the workings of large corpor- ations. Listening to dramatizations telling of the establishment of a corporation is one novel way by which they become acquainted with the theories of such an organization. These classes study comparative bal- ance sheets and income statements, the forming of a corporation, the stock market system, and the opening of financial books. After this preparation, they are ready to work on the books of the cor- poration. They use instruction sheets which give advance assignments and directions for each problem. They also learn to keep books for a partnership. noting the differences between the two types of firms. The students then are given actual books from a corporation or part- nership and are required to balance them. SHORTHAND No, it isn't Chinese symbols or Egypt- ian hieroglyphics, but rather a type of writing familiar to many of you high school students and one which I am full of. It is commonly known as shorthand and I am a shorthand notebook. I have been carried around school and written in almost to excess. But during this brief moment I am free to look back over the events of the year. V The junior students became better ac- quainted with the shorthand symbols by taking dictation and then reading it back. The senior students worked on a secre- tarial course. Many pupils learned that practice pays when the Gregg Company sent awards for work well done during each six-week period. A few of the pupils received their final certificate, the Certifi- cate of Attainment. To do this, a pupil must have won ten awards during the year, five in shorthand and five in typing. Oh! Oh! Here comes my owner, again ready to go to work. 22 TYPEWBITING A good typist is not born, but is the result of constant practice. This theory is the standard rule governing our student typists. The pupils desiring to be stenographers must constantly practice their typewriting in order to attain both speed and accuracy. When they pass special tests given by the Gregg Company, they are given a- wards for speed, accuracy, and artistic arrangement. Typing not only prepares the com- mercial student for jobs, but it also improves him both physically and men- tally. His posture is scrupulously re- garded so that he may breathe deeply and freely. This regular breathing less- ens strain and therefore reduces the possibilities of fatigue. Also if one is a pianist he gets muscular control of his fingers through constant typing. The typist must have his mind attuned to his fingertips, causing him to strike the correct letter at the correct time so that he doesn't type the thinking fund, instead of the sinking fund. But to become stenographers pupils must also learn to cut stencils and operate the mimeograph, to employ correct telephone technique, to prac- tice business etiquette, and to practice interviews for obtaining positions. Thus we see that pounding a type- writer is not all that one must do in order to become a success.

H. S. by urging her to learn To decorate a home, And keep it clean, To cook tasty dishes, Attractive to be seen, for our home economics department offers the opportunity for both girls and boys to learn to do these things in its clothing and homemaking courses. Clothing classes, instructed by Miss Helen Hinchman and Miss Abbie Dunford, are open to both junior and senior girls. Miss Marguerite Hinchman's homemaking classes, this year, were composed entirely of girls but Miss Abbie Dunford had a class of domestically inclined boys. People used to believe that housekeeping should be taught in the home alone, but in recent years it has been proved that much more efficient, scientific, and practical methods of home- making can be taught in school by Well trained teachers. lvllss Dllllfunl lvllss M. llmchmnn lvl ll ll l 24 Thus the VOCATION AL DEPARTMENT Boys who have had vocational train- ing in the shops ot Senior High School may successfully carry on in the technical industries ot Iohnstown because ot the practical experience they gain. Plumbing, electrical Work, and advertising Will be taken care of by the graduates ot the plumbing, the electric, and the commer- cial art shops. The auto-mechanics boys will be able to keep cars in repair and provide sate transportation for our citi- zens. Plans for our homes will be drawn up by the mechanical drawing depart- ment, and the decorations as Well as the furniture for by the boys sheet metal for a rainy those homes will be made of the Woodwork shop. The shop Will help us prepare day by supplying us with rain spouting. The graphic arts boys Will be printing our daily newspapers. boys of the vocational de- partment, under the able guidance of men who have had practical experience in their particular fields, learn the practical as Well as the theoretical side ot their chosen trades, which many ot them will make their lite work. N E W Ss CLHSSES Senior Class News comes to me on the Wings of the wind. I have been here a long time cmd I have seen classes come and go. Recently I have heard much of the class of 1941. It has been high in scholarship and sportsmanship. It has been an American class! Its officers, elected in a truly democratic way by members of the class While they were juniors, have served their school not only in their official capacity but also in other activities. Ira Reed, the presi- dent, besides having one of the leads in the class play, was on the cheer- leading squad in both junior and senior years, Phyllis Long, vice-president, Was active in T. K. E. and the National Honor Societyg Florence Heim, secretary, served also as secretary of the National Honor Societyg and Richard McCann, treasurer, was also president of the '41 Club. Yes, I have seen classes come and go. I would not say that this is an exceptional class. but it is a good one. I know! For years the wind, has brought news to me as I have stood, sentinel- like, in front of the school, waving my folds fondly as I have watched these high school students come and go.

The extra-curricular program provided by the school en- couraged the meeting of old friends and the making of new acquaintenances. For musicians there were band, orchestra, and chorus, tor those interested in sports, athletic organiza- tions, and for others, Girl Reserves, Pep Clubs, Science Club, and many other social functions-a club tor practically every individual. The juniors, eager to display their skill in these ac- tivities, turned out with much enthusiasm. Then on February 7, the junior Class was organized. A nominating committee, appointed by Mr. Davis, was composed ot Waldon Crissey, Davey Dysert, Marjorie Iones, Evelyn Nas- sir, and George Ream. On February lU they presented a ballot to the class. A few days later the Ballot Committee consisting of Waldon Crissey, Roy Hershberger, Nancy McGeary, and Roman Siembak announced the following results: President, Robert Hinksg Vice-President, Ruth Hornick, Secretary, Evelyn Nassirg Treasurer, Davey Dysertg Class Colors and Flower Committee, Ruth H. Miller, Elizabeth Young, and Calvin Sheehan. Through the year the Iuniors gained confidence and achievement. Those who were outstanding in scholastic work, sports, music, and other activities won their deserved places. Thus the Iuniors became more experienced so that by com- mencement they were eager to take over the duties of the Seniors. 76 i Y .. H 92.5 A Y ff ., me f df A L -- , ik S- 5 fix BVS bs K f uf? fi? KWH Uv HCTIVITIES EDITORIAL STAFF I am only a fluid contained in a small bottle. The learned human world calls me ink. I have been very much over- worked during the year by this staff. In the fall I was used to make up the staff, and my liquid self in the point of my brother, Mr. Fountain Pen, was used for the writing of sample articles. Then fol- lowed a period of inactivity, during which I stored up energy for the tedious grind ahead. Soon the furious pace began. My re- ceptacle was emptied continuously but always refilled, while I was used to form the words which you see scattered throughout this book. Because of the long and steady hours of ceaseless labor, the Ink Writers Union took away my mem- bership until I was ready to assume a more conservative life. Finally-and I thought the day would never come-my work was finished, except for an occasion- al touch here and there, where copy was wrong. I sincerely hope that the students who purchase this book will realize that I have done my very best to make it a success. ART STAFF Bang! Bang! Crash! Rat-a-tat-tat! I play on other people's nerves, especially the students in Room 410. The editor of the yearbook, Ralph Graff, Who is quite a detective, since he is always snooping around in search of unusual clues, has finally solved the mystery. Although I managed to scare him away With my continued hammering the first time, he persisted, and finally pierced my armor of mystery. So I must break down and divulge my secret. I am the air com- pressor part of the air brush.

I have made the room untenable for all but the most hardy of the artists because of my con- tinual chattering and roaring. My fel- low comrades in this department, A. Pen, Use Ink, Paint Brush, and the numerous Sketch family, all have a large part to play in the drawings which make up this book. But enough of this talk, I have very important Work to do, if the paintings are to be finished. Rat-a-tat, rat-a-tat ,... PHOTOGRAPHY STAFF Flash! Flash! I open my eyes. Then, click again. I go back to slumber and recuperate. This process is repeated sev- eral times, until I become quite tired. Suddenly a beam of light penetrates my shell and my film is torn off. It is then developed and printed into a very fine picture lsometinmes?l. As you all have probably guessed, I am the all-seeing optic in the hands of Ben Christie and Harold Harfoot, commonly known as A. Camera. Every picture contained in this book is the Work of my family or me. Other members of this staff, with Whom I am not so intimately acquainted, classify the photographs and make sure that every student has had his picture taken. But, now I am ready again for Work. Here I go! Flash! Click! 82 TYPING STAFF s S-P-EAC-T-A-T-O-R, Click, Click, Crash! My feet ache, my arms are tired, my body is rusty and Worn. But still the ceaseless pounding of my frame goes on. Every Wednesday night I receive a se- vere beating from the members of the Typing Staff. If you haven't guessed by this time who I am, I will tell you the secret. I am the machine which repro- duces the copy for the printers from the manuscripts submitted by the members of the Editorial Staff, commonly known in Iohnstown High School as an ordinary typewriter. My intricate mechanism controls the Words which are printed in this book. After I have finished my Work of pre- paring the article in typewritten form. it is carefully scrutinized by the typists and then by the editors for any possible errors. If my handiwork survives this proof reading, it is sent to the printers' While I prepare another article. After I have reproduced all the ar- ticles, my Work for the year is finished. Therefore, I crawl back into my case, and begin to rest up for another long qrind next year. Ho, hum! I'm so sleepy. lrlfr 'rn R ll Ruw l- Cxrny Lrrky Kincly Danni Nlaulf Lvgull Row 2- Grcxa Nurs Su-fan Sarru Daily Row 3- Hatha Grads Dillin- fiscliri Row 4- lc-ski' Srifflv ADVERTISING STAFF I am one of the most overworked articles in high school. My owners carry me with them on long journeys around town, through the offices of many stores, and into interviews with leading business officials. My back is worn out by being thrust from the pockets of my owner to the hands of the business man and back again. My body suffers severely from be- ing scratched by pencils, having parts of it wrinkled and worn, and having some sections rudely torn from it. I am the con- tract book used by the head of the staff, lack Penrod, while the other members of my family Work with their respective owners on the Advertising Staff. After the merchant has agreed to buy space in the yearbook by signing a place upon my back, my cousin, A. Copy, is sent to the printer. From the numerous members of my family which went into action and from my own personal ex- perience, I must say that the Advertising Staff has had an excellent campaign this year. SUBSCRIPTION STAFF HJ Iingle! Iinglel What is that tinkling noise? Oh, it is only the associates of my fraternity coming to spend the day with me before being deposited in the re- ceptacle of my brother, Mr. Office Safe. Who am I? Why, I am the change box containing the money which the mem- bers of the Subscription Staff turn into their manager, Henry Schneider. My life is very boring. I am always under the scrutiny of my owner, Boss Schneider, who never lets me out of his sight. He abuses me very much by open- ing and closing my jaws several times a day, to put in or take out the proceeds of the day. From the numerous open- ings and from the size of the receipts, I must have held over sixteen hundred of my kindred, One Dollar Bills. Occasion- ally, several black sheep, Two Dollar Bills, hid in my Caverns. My persistent operation is a tribute to the tireless efforts of the Subscription Staff, who have really done a fine job through- out the school year. They have received the money from the students, turned it in to my owner, and kept an accurate account of all business transactions. It was through their efforts that every stu- dent who desired and paid for a copy of this book, received it. But now my period of activity is over for a while, and I am going to take a much needed vacation. BLUE AND BLACK STAFF I am the Waste paper basket stand- ing in the corner of Miss Overdort's room. Until the end of the second period, there is a moderate amount of paper in me, but the journalism class, third period, is as The Merry-go-round. In this issue ap- pear short stories, cartoons, poetry, jokes, and other articles of interest to students. The money made from the sale of this issue is used for trips to conventions, for new books, and for parties. Elizabeth Young is editor-in-chief and Iack Penrod is business manager. simply unreasonable! The students in this class were ad- mitted on their scholastic standing and ability to Write. Ot the latter part of this statement I am doubtful. Every day, through one of my slits, I see them be- gin to write editorials, features, and news articles, which Will appear in The Blue and Black, presented in The Iohnstown Tribune. As they write, I prepare tor the onslaught sure to follow. About mid-term, my plight is worse than ever, for then they are Writing ar- ticles for the special issue, which is pub- lished annually.

No one bothers me much, but, although it hurts me to think that I am not being enjoyed as other books are, I do love being able to see all that goes on. At the beginning of each year, I watch Miss Hoge gather together the members of her library staff, some new and some old. About the second or third meeting, they elect officers. This year the majority of the staff is composed of girls. The president is Margaret Gaylor and the vice-president is Edith Giannone. From my vantage point, I watch the library staff working tirelessly. Every day is a busy day, for these students have very few moments to rest. They must keep tab on overdue books, and they help students find books, besides doing many other small duties. The library is very busy, and it is sel- dom that I have a chance to rest. But there are a few hours when the library is empty and I can enjoy the peace and quiet which is a library's own. I'l bvugl Mull.

I take notes on the discussions held on school ideas and policies. My pages show that a very successful dance Was held in the Audion in February. Later an attractive book mark con- taining a student code of ethics, printed in the school print shop, was distributed to all pupils. It contained the insignia of Student Council, below which ap- peared vertically the letters I. H. S. Stu- dents, each being the initial letter of a rule to carry out the aims of Student Council. The officers this year were Dick Raab, president, Patricia Farrell, secretary, and Rupert Hughes, treasurer. Mr. Raymond Morgan is sponsor. GIRL RESERVES I am the blue triangular symbol of the Girl Reserves. I see everything that happens in this organization. The most beautiful sight is the candle light service held to admit any girl Who wishes to join the Girl Reserves. For her formal initiation, each girl is given a lighted candle and, With the older members joined in a circle, she recites the Girl Reserve oath and code, and sings the club's theme song, Follow the Gleamf' The officers chosen in l94U to serve in 1941 are lean Buckey, Presidentg Eileen Kyle, Vice President, Shirley Stormer, Secretary, Dorothy Tate, Treasurer, and Gloria Fisher, Inter-Club Council Repre- sentative. This year, Miss Bonterse, acting as the adviser, helped make the organization a success. Meetings were held in the Y. W. C. A.'s recreation rooms. In addition to group discussions, the girls enjoyed games and dancing. One of the club's activities Was a spaghetti supper which they enjoyed very much, I am sure that all of the girls are proud to say that they belong to the Girl Reserves. I, too, am proud to stand for so worthwhile an organization. ALPHA HI-Y I have perhaps the most complete knowledge of the activities of the Alpha Hi-Y through the year. I am the notebook which is kept by our secretary. The Hi-Y is a nation-Wide organiza- tion and is a subsidiary of the Y. M. C. A. Membership is restricted to senior boys of outstanding character and acceptable scholarship. Our club has its regular meetings at the Y. M. C. A. every Wednesday eve- ning. At these meetings persons from different vocations deliver interesting and educational messages on various topics. Also debates on different subjects are very often held. These debates are usual- ly open affairs which are brought to a deadlock in short order. On one of my sheets is written the plans and results of the luncheon party held at the Green Gables. This party turned out to be successful in more ways than oneg namely, in attendance and in enjoyment. The officers are Henry Schneider, Presidentg Paul Griffith, Vice-Presidentg Iames Neilson, Secretary-Treasurer. BETA HI-Y I am one ot the most cherished em- blems ol high school. The club for which I stand enjoys the full support of the ad- ministration because ol the high stand- ards and principles it recognizes. These are embodied in the purpose ot the club to create, maintain, and extend through- out the school and community high standards of Christian character, and in the platform: Clean speech, clean sportsmanship, clean scholarship, and Clean living. Representing such high standards as these, I am proud ot my shape and color. and ot the beautiful letters BETA HI-Y across my chest, tor I am the club's pin. I adorn the sweater of the president, Iohn Kenny, While my relatives respectively adorn the vice-president, Calvin Shee- han, the secretary, Earl Leventryg the treasurer, Don Davis, the chaplain, Wel- fley Porch, and the other members ot the club. At their meetings, l have witnessed a variety ot programs, including motion pictures ot our Navy, Alaska, and dis- eases, speeches by Mr. Davis and Dr. Howard G. Sloan, and a skating party to raise money to buy covers for chairs and couches at the Y. M. C. A. UNIOR ACADEMY OF SCIENCE As a test tube of Science I see experiments.

On April ll the club Went to Coates- ville to the convention ot the Pennsyl- vania Iunior Academy ot Science, Where Leon Kraintz captured first place for boys among the many contestants. On May 3 Edward Raspotnik and Don Benford represented the club at the Science and Engineering Fair at Buhl Planetarium in Pittsburgh. All in all, the club has had a most successful year. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY ill T it . g lllfal S35-F T ll 1 I am the Torch of Learning. I am only a symbol-but a symbol of one of the most cherished accomplishments of high school students-membership in the Na- tional Honor Society. This achievement is the highest recog- nition of academic honor which a senior can obtain. After election to the society on the bases of scholarship, leadership, service, and character, all members held a meeting for election of officers and planned for activities. The installation of members of the Touchstone Chapter took place formally in caps and gowns at as- sembly on March 12, under the direction of Miss Anna Catherine Saylor, faculty sponsor. Officers for 1941 are Iohn Dowl- ing, president, Henry Schneider, vice- presidentg Florence Heim, secretary. The thirty-eight senior members en- joyed a fine banquet at the Capital Ho- tel on March 18, when an inspiring mes- sage Was brought to the society by Miss Edna K. Pearl. This group should be one of the last- ing things of the class of '41 because many members expressed a desire to continue meeting so as to keep up ac- quaintances following the close of the term. T. K. E. CLUB I am the letter T on the front of a familiar pin worn around our high school. My fellow-letters and l stand for the Greek Words To Kaaon Enomeoa mean- ing We seek the beautiful. We are commonly referred to as T. K. E. The club which we represent Was organized to emphasize the liner qualities of girl- hood through constructive discussion pro- grams and social activities. -In the spring of their junior year twen- ty girls, outstanding in scholarship, per- sonality, leadership ,and character, are chosen by their predecessors and by the members of the faculty. They then be- come members of my club, which is sponsored by Miss Sophia Moiles. Two highlights of the year were a semi-formal dance held on November 22 and the annual trip to Pittsburgh on May 3. At the dance the girls, not only taking advantage of Leap Year but also of a special rule of their club, invited the boys Whom they wished. The trip to Pittsburgh was taken in conjunction with the members of Miss Moiles' other organi- zation, the Science Club, and proved enjoyable to all. 94 41 CLUB Goin' to the dance Friday? Of course, that phrase means that the '41 Club is holding a reception after an important basketball game. I know all about these dances, from the arrange- ments for them to the actual attendance, because I am worn by every member. I am the '41 Club pin. Our purpose is to help the school, especially by holding receptions after important games. This practice has con- tributed greatly toward strengthening the bonds of friendship between Iohnstown and its athletic rivals. This year we held two very successful dances. We also sponsored, with the Art Department, two performances of Neff, the Magician. The club has used its earnings to buy books and several magazines for the library. The officers of the club are Richard McCann, President, Carl Espey, Vice- President, Ira Reed, Secretary, William Slivosky, Treasurer, Mr. Ralph Sharp is sponsor. 1 I Illini! l .F I 5 hllr Lx 4 M llnqli AVIATION CLUB I whirl and spin dizzily as I propel the model planes of the Aviation Club through space. I can find no better enjoy- ment than soaring high above the ground with the satisfaction that if it weren't for me, flying would be dead. I am, as you know by now, an airplane propeller, commonly called by my aviation friends a prop. Our object is to promote in young men an interest in model building and to advance their aeronautical knowledge. Membership is open to any student inter- ested in aviation. This year we have held two con- tests. The first was held in Roxbury Park Q-Kxhliulx for flying models. -i . . ig, ,f The points on which 5 T D models were judged Q 'T 5' included speed, the ,Zi plane's ability to fly high, its record in time, and also its flying distance. The second contest was held to determine the best scale model. This con- test included skill alone in building mo- dels. Our members have very successfully designed their own model under the supervision of their advisor, Mr. McHugh. A trip, financed by the club itself, was made this year through the Piper Aircraft Factory in Lock Haven. The trip was very successful with emphasis on the fact that each member returned with a more clear and exact knowledge of air- plane construction. Well, I'll go back to my work of pro- pelling planes through the air. However, I must not forget the officers of our club who are Merle Clapfaddle, Presidentp Robert Bischof, Vice-Presidentg Ludwig Bauer, Secretary. r CAMERA CLUB I am the secretary's notebook. During the school year I have recorded the activities of the Camera Club. Looking over my notes, I find that this club passed the year in the following manner: September lU-The following officers were elected: Ralph Graff, president, Robert Henderson, vice-president, and Phyllis Sparks, secretary-treasurer. November l-A very successful party was held in the audion. Music was fur- nished by Davy Dysert. Hallowe'en deco- rations gave the dance a seasonable at- mosphere. December 7-A picture contest was conducted this month among the mem- bers of the club. February Z5-The members of the club journeyed through the plant of the Conemaugh Engraving Company. Ar- ranged by Andriana Diamant and Ralph Graff. it proved educational and interest- ing to watch the making of plates used to print newspapers and magazines. That finished the last item of interest in the notebook. Therefore, I shall close my eyes and pass into dreamland until next year, when I shall again be useful to this club. X f - is FT '-'in W J, v ' ' , S ,---ll 97 HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Please excuse me if I seem a little drowsy, but keeping my one eye on all the activities of the Home Economics Club makes me tired. Because a needle is an indispensable article to every home- maker, I am on hand for every meeting. This club, through Miss Helen Hinchman, teaches the tricks of home-making. In October we held a Halloween party and later a tea-dance, where the girls were enter- tained while gaining the knowledge of social be- havior. At Christmas time We learned how to decorate the home for the holiday season and also how to make Christmas gifts. At other meetings we saw style shows, moving pictures, and a skit on how to get a job. We also had a delightful trip through a dress factory. Our officers, Ielorma Lopresti, presidentg Margaret Matthews, secretary, Betty Herbs, treasurerg and Dor- othy Weible, vice-president, all attended a rally for home economics clubs at Southmont High School. Spring Fgshions in the Making A spring dance and an outdoor picnic topped the year's activities. 98 LEADERS CLUB Gloria Dcrnvr, luur 'llarm-. Ruth ll Il Nl l l Ml urn lx' mwv 7 , inlrvil Nlflx l y 1 l The Leaders Club kept me on the bounce all term. Being a ball, I have a part in almost everything that happens in the gymnasium, so naturally I felt pretty bad when the club clidn't consult me about their election of officers. How- ever, the right people Were chosen when the members elected Gwen Barnhart, president, Iean Seigh, secretary, and Eleanor Dittmar, treasurer. The club's membership is a chosen group of Miss Rutledge's senior girls who assist her in conducting the activities in the gymnasium classes. Through the year We also sponsor dances at noon. With the proceeds from these dances We bought a complete table tennis set and a game of shuffleboard, besides all the pop- ular records for the victrola. I Was disappointed when the girls received their pins and I didn't get one, now, however, I realize it Wasn't because I'm not as much a member as they, it Was just because they did not Want to ruin my constitution by puncturing my skin. BOYS' PEP CLUB I, the Boys' Pep Club paint brush, am going to tell you about the purpose and activities of this club. To begin, the officers are Don Luke, president, Tom McAneny, vice president, Paul Griffith, treasurer. Miss Sophia Moiles sponsors the organization. Our purpose is to uphold the school pep and inspire good sportsmanship and lively interest in school athletics. I am used frequently to paint the town lwith whitewashl. The boys hang banners of welcome to the visiting team in con- spicuous places and greet their team with cheers. The club's most memorable activity is the annual initiation. To say that this Was bloody business Wouldn't be fair, nor would it be good taste, but if you Want to know What the initiation is. just ask the man Who's had one. , , 7 , ' -,' X .X Qt- xx I , 1 2 x , 5 k X gn , 7 i fs ' f , t - ' - fa f X I f s 5 X R' ' .- 1 ff ' X -. , I f fcxx ' ,.

Glancing over the minutes on my page, I realize that the social organ- ization, sponsored by Misses Verda Gear- hart, Anna Iohnson and Elvina Owen, is an active one. On one of my first pages, I find the officers of the club who were Florence Heim, president, Rexine Sell, vice-presidentg Phyllis Long, secretaryg and lean Ann Custer, treasurer. Since one of the main purposes of the club is to stir up pep, this group chose the girl cheer leaders. Also recorded is one of the most unique events held by the club this year-the initiation of new mem- bers, which took place in the high school's audion. After going through many antics blindfolded, and eating refreshments, the new members were forced to walk through town in a chain gang. Turning a few of my pages, I find that at Christmas time, the girls gathered discarded toys and contributed a small sum of money which were given to a Worthy underprivileged family. Thus you can see by reading me that the Girls' Pep Club has fully lived up to its name by its participation in many activities. , 'lg ,l 44' BOOSTER KL UB I am the phonograph of the Booster Klub. Though I don't wish to brag, with- out me things Wouldn't be the same at the noon dances held by this klub. For its assembly programs, the klub held an oratorical contest. Six contest- ants, Betty Lou Croyle, Eileen Dowdell, Robert Dittmar, William Hall, William Wolford, and Doris Eschrich, spoke on subjects related to the American way of life. On February l9, Billy Hall won the first prize, the judges being the two Weigle brothers, and Mr. Kunkle. The following week, the judges awarded the first prize to William Wolford. Each con- testant was given a small gift. Though I wasn't present ,I heard that the annual dinner-dance at the White Star Hotel was a great success. Any one who Wishes to join the Booster Klub is voted upon by the old members. After the new members were chosen this year, the following were elected: Frances Hornick, president, Donald Davis, vice- presidentp Donald Hamre, secretary, Rose- mary Buck, treasurer. Mr. Lockner is in charge of the Booster Klub. l t 102 MECHANICAL DRAWING I am a new slide rule. When I was brought to the Mechanical Drawing room in Iohnstown High and put in the drawer, I met some interesting people. There were triangles, thumb-tacks, French curves, art gum, eraser shields, protractor, and others, They told me all about my sur- roundings and of the course that the boys take in using us instruments. When the boys finish this part of their training, they go on to lettering, applied geometry, technical sketching, and the more difficult perspective, architectural drawing, and maps. Most interesting was the Work done under Mr. West's direction. Before work is begun in any of the shops, the me- chanical drawing department makes the plans. Among their projects were the cupboards for Miss Hills' office and the partition for Miss Tomb's. I am happy to be in the industrious surroundings of one of the most important branches of the vocational course. It is true that Mechanical Drawing is the language of industry. - 1' ELECTRIC SHOP I am an electric motor, newly repair- ed by the Electric Shop. I should like to tell you about the work done by the boys in this shop under the direction of Mr. Marks. When a boy starts Work, he learns the fundamentals of electricityg that is, the symbols used, the nature and source of electricity, static electricity, conductors and insulators, resistance and conduc- tivity, and electrical and mechanical energy. But since this is rather technical talk, I'll tell you about some of the interesting jobs done. Wiring of burglar alarms is an interesting study made, and wiring for electric lighting follows soon after. The more advanced students study dynamos, storage batteries, rewinding and connect- ing, telephone and telegraphy, and radio. The boys also do many jobs around the school. The projector for moving pic- tures is regulated and operated by elec- tric-shop students. Lighting for various productions and dances is furnished by this versatile shopl I hope I have shown you that the electric shop is one of our most useful and essential units. AUTO SHOP How fortunate an automobile am I that my owner takes me to the Cochran auto shop for repair work. One day in spring my owner took me to the shop for work on my electric system. It didn't take the boys long to fix me up in good running order, but the interesting part of my visit was in observ- ing points of interest about the shop. I heard one boy discussing plans for a roller skating party and this was the first time I realized that dances, skates, and other various social activities play an important part in the life of an Auto Club member. The regular work of the boys consists in learning how different parts of the automobile function and how to keep them in running order. Valves are ground, carbon is removed from the piston rings, and bearing adjustments are made. The culmination of all the knowledge gained in the field is put to the test after high school when boys find positions in garages and repair shops. So if you are an automobile that thinks repair work dreary and unexciting, come to the Cochran Auto Shop for your repairs! 105 MACHINE SHOP Ouch! This was the first Word I, a shining steel hammer, spoke when a shop boy in the machine shop misused me. Of course, that was the beginning of the year and now-thanks to first-class in- struction-I am used properly. In my shop the most interesting pastime for the tools is observing boys at Work and not- ing their varied projects. Some of the stu- dents Work on their own projects, such as small drill presses, while they are gaining instruction and guidance in using differ- ent machines. One of the important sub- jects for converzation, when these busy boys find time to talk, is the business of getting a job alter graduation. For most of them jobs are Waiting as machinists, and, thanks to the Governments defense program, new jobs are being created. The boys also have their preparedness program, learning all they can in pre- paration for a job next year. 106 Aside from daily work, recreation is quite important to these boys. This is taken care of by having skates and dances. The future machinists hold these activities through an organized club, the dues of which are used to furnish a trip or perhaps a banquet at the end of the year. PLUMBING SHOP I am the most frequently used tool in the plumbing shop-the soldering iron. My story is one of the boys that come into the shop with no idea ot the type of work ahead of them, but who graduate fully prepared to Work in any plumbing shop in the city. When a boy first enters he learns how to use me in soldering names, designs, and insigniag later, as he gains more experience, he uses me in soldering joints ot pipe. The thrilling part of my work comes in Watching his in- creasing interest in the work and the gradual advancement in the art until the time of commencement. Only senior students may attempt to make a chest. after having satisfactorily completed the course. As the student leaves the shop, he is given a golden faucet, and now he is a full-fledged plumber ready for Work in any plumbing shop. 4 l GRAPHIC ARTS The work day had not yet begun in the Print Shop and the different pieces of equipment were holding a round table discussion. In conference were the Num- ber Two Press and the Number One Press, Stock-Cutter, Linotype, Stitcher, and Cylinder Press. The topic under consideration was the recent celebration of National Print- ing Education Week. The assembly pro- gram, banquet, skate, dance, and displays were discussed, and from there the con- versation passed to all the fine Work done by the boys and Mr. Coyle in the Print Shop. The new Punch, asked about the course taken in the Print Shop, and the Stitcher told him that first the Iuniors Work with a Senior to get experience on all the machines. Then in Senior year they go ahead With big jobs themselves. While in the course, the boys try to pass the International Typographical Union Test, and if they succeed, they get certificates from this international organization. Then since it was nearly shop-time, they adjourned the meeting to work again. SIGN SHOP The sign shop is deserted: all is quiet: the Lettering Brush speaks: Say, friends, one of the boys carried me off to the high school yesterday. You should have seen what l saw! Silk Screen: What'? Brush: Some signs that We helped to make! Skating party posters, and a basketball sign on the front of the build- ing. On the Way back, I saw on a huge bill-board down town that big sign Mr. Gardner was laying out for the boys to paint two Weeks ago. Screen: We must be pretty impor- tant to the school. Spray Gun: Don't forget all the inks paints, projector, and other tools! Bush: AW, We were going to men- tion you! But do you remember when the boys first began to use us? Screen: They had to do lettering job sheets before they could use me. Brush: Yes, but after about three months of lettering, blending, materials, and other jobs, they Were ready to use you on regular signs. Spray Gun: Quiet! Here comes Mr. Gardner! fAnd another busy day's work begins! 109 WOODWORK SHOP The other day when things got rather dull, as they do at times even for a pen- cil-sharpener,, I decided to try my hand at interviewing a machine. I found it a very interesting experience, and the machine which I interviewed was the band-saw in the wood shop. You'd be fqi surprised at the amount of information it told me about the various projects of the shop boys. When I asked this machine what the largest project this year in wood shop was, he replied, The Ioseph johns band room cabinets. Continuing in a sharp razor-edged voice, he explained, This is the largest project ever attempt- ed by our boys. Wait a minute, cut in the circular saw, We also build other wooden articles for rooms throughout the school, such as bulletin boards and cabinets, and we re- pair school furniture. The important fact to remember, said the band-saw, is that the boys are getting valuable training for highly com- petitive work in post-school life. Thus this entertaining interview came to a close and I paused on the reflection that if I were ever turned by a magician into a Pinocchio or something and needed repairs, the wood shop would be my best bet. 110 SHEET METAL SHOP The other day a visitor marveled at the beauty of some meial roses made at the sheet metal shop. Shortly afterward, the shears began feeling so proud, they could hardly be used. But the roll-former soon spoke up: Don't forget that spouting that I helped make. The raising hammer thumped, I made a smoking stand. l'm a good Work- er, too. Before anyone could say useful utensils, all the rest of the tools had joined in the uproar. The cornice-brake shouted about his job of bending metal. The folder and seaming machine each had a voice in the clamor, but just then the students came in. The first boy said, After I learned the use of these tools, I did a complete furnace piping job. The second had helped make the metal roses. The third had made a rain gauge, and the fourth had helped with the Welding booths, Mr. Alter's pride. That evening the tools decided to go on turning out good results with less self-praise. ,- 24. mbsf., -. ..u DRAMATICS The Dramatics Department gives many happy hours to the pupils in Iohns- town High School. I could not even be- gin to tell you of all the fun we have in the auditoriumg but being a Baby Spot- light and one of the brightest props on the stage, I have been asked to tell you some of the high lights of the year's activities. The Dramatics Department this year produced three very fine plays, which were enjoyed by all. The first production was held during American Education Week. Mr. Citizen Has a Dream was chosen for this be- cause it showed just how essential edu- cation really is. You may not believe me, but after the pupils in the assembly saw that it was impossible for Ted Citizen to keep a job without a finished educa- tion, even they began to hate Iohn Citizen for not paying his school taxes. Everybody sat tight when Ted seem- ingly joined the Bund and pledged himself to the downfall of Democracy: however, things turned out to be not so bad, as it was all a dream of Mr. Iohn Citizen, who after all condescended to pay extra taxes joyfully for the upkeep of Public Schools. The production of the play was conducted mainly by Mr. Wein- stein, a student teacher in the Dramatics Department, with the following cast: Rob- ert Gallagher, Anne Hoyle, Gwen Barn- hart, Ira Reed, Robert Bruce, Iohn Duca, Kathleen Guier, Irene Lamonettin, Edwin Brown, Minnie Livingston, Evelyn Leng- yel, Harry jones, Robert Seffick, Theo- dore Sabo, Robert Doverspike, and Lois Barclay. For the Christmas play this year the old morality play, The Summoning of Everyman was chosen. This play is a revival of a type of play that was popu- Grandpa and Paul surely swing a wicked fork! lar in the Middle Ages and personifies vices and virtues, such as Cowardice, Conceits, Deceit, Beauty, and Malice. From this crude, formless, artless folk- drama, the members of the cast put en- ' life into thusiasm cmd desire for a better the minds of the audience! The story is Spiritualism? . . . Oh, Now, Mrs. Kirby! Here are Tony and Alice. They're in love! lThat other fellow is Sabo Depumal that of a man's journey to the grave after his summoning by Death. It was surpris- ' as sim- ingly effective even though it W ply produced with a plain curtained set- ting and lines adapted in blank verse. The whole play was set off by hymn music sung by Elaine Albert and accom- panied on the organ by Miss Weaver. The complete cast was as follows: Gwen Barnhart, William Hall, Robert Dover- spike, Waldon Crissy, Robert Hinks, Theo- dore Sabo, Robert Seffick, Kathleen Guier, Pierre Culliton, Irene Lamonettin, Iohn Kenny, Edwin Brown, Anne Hoyle, Roy Hershberger, Glen George, Minnie Liv- ingston, Florence Heim, Harry Iones, Rhea Silverstone, and Iacqueline Bowman. During the Senior Play is the time when I work hardest, but with the most excel- joy. This year the class gave an 113 Grandpa and the Girls lent interpretation ol the Hart and Kaufman three-act comedy, You Can't Take It With You. This is the story ot Grandpa Vanderhol, who, thirty-tive years ago, decided to stop Working and have fun. This phil- osophy seemed highly impractical but was proved entirely sensible through the love affair ot Alice Syca- more and Tony Kirby, son of The Kirbys. The Whole play Was a delightful entanglement of lirecrackers, Ed Carmichael's xylophone, ballet dancing, flies, snakes, and live kittens, Which, through the excellent directing ol Miss Ruth Young and the convincing characterizations by the members of the cast led the play to considerable favorable comment. Honors Were shared equally by all the members of the cast which in- cluded Kathleen Guier, Ira Reed. Robert Gallagher, Minnie Livingston Gwen Barnhart, Evelyn Lengyel William Hall, Robert Doverspike Harry Iones, Robert Bruce, Anne Hoyle, Irene Larnonettin, Lois Bar- clay, Theodore Sabo, Richard Mil- hem, Ted Rodgers, Moe Spiegle, Edwin Brown, and Richard Roesch. The casts ot these three plays gave 1 1 1 very fine performances and were a credit to the school and Miss Young. After the Senior play all my hard work for the year was finished. I sat back and laughed at the Senior assembly and beamed brightly at all the graduating students on com- mencement day. I worked hard all year and was glad when all the switches were disconnected until next year. Penny and Grandpa Behind the Scenes IQ!

I was pres- ent at every rehearsal and Was quite use- ful, too. On Mondays and Fridays lean Diehl played on my keys, and on Tues- days and Thursdays Rhea Silverstone was accompanist. I Was rnost helpful in the vocalizing part of rehearsals. How would Miss Weaver have known on What pitch the chorus should sing the scales and arpeggios it she cou1dn't have played the chorus on my keys? Who am I? The piano, of course.

As they made more progress I was used merely in the difficult passages, and finally, since the Iohnstown High School Chorus is an A Cappella chorus, I only sounded the pitches before each number. At the beginning of the year the dif- ferent sections of the chorus-soprano, alto, tenor, and bass-held separate group rehearsals. In the month of March the first joint rehearsal of all the boys and girls took place. After that, the members became used to singing together in har- mony. This year We rehearsed Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Iohn, Three Kings, My Heart Hath a Mind, The Keys of My Heart, Calm As the Night, I Pledge Allegiance to the Flag, The Crimson Rose, The Home Road, and America lrom the Bloch Symphony. The chorus also sang three songs with des- cants. They were Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes, Old' King Co1e, and By the Banks of Allen Water. Late in the spring we gave assem- bly programs at the three junior high schools and two in the Senior High School assembly. This year, as Miss Weaver said, we had a fine alto section. Many of the girls had excellent voices and sang their parts Well. The tenor section was much better this year than it had been in previous years. Well, I am now ready for another rehearsal. ll7 Row l- Row 4- Row 7- Potts Learish Gciser Davis Wilson Bender Figge Elliott Collivcr Albert Durancy Nlrclellaud Wolf Ball Horne Callahan Cover lispey Welshko Diehl George Davies Stutzman Morris lames Turner Riddell Row 2- Row 5- Row S- Carcy Bnntly Strayer Carey Iohns Wicks llornick Custer Suttlc Diamant Dill 'l'ocl4l Barclay Curry Glock Bethune Lamonettin Bcigay Tauhman Go:-bert Horne Mahon Gatins Brallicr Silverstone Kolesar Hinks Row 3- Row 6- Row 9- llarrison Blackford Custer Peat Graff Bcrkey Michalowicli Bracken Dowling Kcllar Hildebrand Fishvr Evans Gntilla Spiegel Garczyclai Bittner Mikula Bifano Culliton lVlulCl00n Bender Dura Munly . Koontz Link ORCHESTRA Being the bass viol, I saw and heard everything that happened this year in the orchestra. I have been in Iohnstown High School for several years and have heard many of its orchestras. In my estimation, this year's organization is as good as, it not much better, than any other. As soon as school started we began preparing for an assembly program which we presented in the fall. Our con- cert-meister, Ioseph Agnella played two solos, Intermezzo and Czardas. A flute trio composed of Elizabeth Young, Alfred Barrett, and Matthew Winstanley played Tschaikowsky's Dance of the Reed Flutes. For the next big occasion I had a large part. In October several members were chosen to play in the Southwestern Or- chestra at Ieannette. Alice Rowland took me, lean Benshoft and Charlotte Marks played French horns, William Bader. trombone, Frank Opperman, Cornet, Hel- en Porch, oboe: Gloria Fisher, bassoon, Iack Shugars, tubap Lenore Koontz, clar- inetg Matthew Winstanley, tluteg and Sophie Conrad, Ruth Barnet, and Eve- lyn Campbell, violins, Charlotte Marks, Evelyn Campbell, William Bader, Frank Opperman, Iack Shugars, and Matthew Winstanley were selected to hold the first chair in each of their sections. Then, on November 21, 22, 23, tour of these students went to All-State Orches- tra at Erie. They were Frank Opperman, Gloria Fisher, Matthew Winstanley, and Lenore Koontz. Of these four Frank Op- Q perman and Gloria Fisher were chosen to head the cornet and bassoon sec- tions, respectively.

Ruth Iames served as accompanist. We were surprised one Monday morn- ing at rehearsal when Mr. Huntington passed out a new piece called Study in B1ue, a modernistic composition. It was a piano duet with orchestra accompani- ment. Ruth Iames and Iean Benshoff played the piano parts. In April and May we gave our duet concerts which proved to be highly suc- cessful. It was interesting to play under the other orchestra directors and I'm sure all the other members enjoyed it as much as I did. With all the seniors leaving, I shall be very anxious to find out who will play me next year. Fornwald l. wr ,ff 119 I.

I remember when the band started drill practice for the football games 'way back in August, and also when the tryouts were held. As the band formed a heart at one of the football games, I well recall how my owner puffed away at Does Your Heart Beat For Me. I witnessed the famous Iohns- town-Altoona game but little did I realize as we formed the horseshoe curve be- tween halves of the game, that before the game ended my well polished bell would carry several scratches. After football season ended, concert band began. Several new faces from junior high and high school were re- flected upon my smooth surface as we practiced in the audion.

F rank Opperman, as student director, led three numbers. I was carried to and from school quite often throughout February, and on Tues- day and Thursday nights in the audion we worked until Mr. Aikey's' arm became too tired to direct. On February twenty-eighth the band's concert was given. Several of the num- bers played on the assembly program were presented, plus King Orry by Haydn Woody Overture to l8lZ by Tchaikovsky, and Scenes From the Sierras with special lighting effects.

It is by mere chance that I am alive for I was in grave danger back in August when some oi the twirlers were just learning. However, by November I ielt that I had slipped entirely from death's icy grip, even ii some of my fellow-flags had long since been laid to rest. The twirlers with whom I entrusted my precious life as shown in the pic- ture are Ernest Hornick, Robert Fallier, Hayes Kelly, and William Bader. Dorothy Moisey and Donald Oakley are not in the picture. At the Charleroi-Iohnstown game I was put through a breath-taking drill which must have been quite well re- ceived, for I observed that the Charleroi drum maiorettes requested an introduc- tion to our twirlers. One night during band rehearsal the dean of American flag twirlers, Mr. Valier, gave the twirl- ers some advice and showed them new tricks. Even I was cold on the day of the Ieannette-Iohnstown game when I was whirled around by the stiff, shaky fingers of the poor twirlers who were standing in mud over their shoe-tops. I could see all this when at the zenith of my flight I would pause and then go hurtling head first downward. You can imagine the thrill I got on every succeeding twirl. I was thrown upward by a quick twist of the wrist and the world went round and round, making the people in the bleachers look like tire tracks in the hip- podrome. At the peak of my climb I turned again and darted downward. Even I couldn't help shuddering as the mud rushed up to meet me and I couldn't run away. But in the nick of time my friend's welcome hand gripped me firmly and saved me from certain destruction. After this ordeal I retired from the public eye, for I had no part in concert band's activities. ' As I patiently wait for next autumn, I look back over the football season. Yes, the time I spent with the I. H. S. band of '41 was certainly full of thrills and breath-taking spills for me. 123 FORUM CLUB To give high school students an op- portunity to discuss important national and personal questions that may directly affect them within a few years, an Open Forum Club was organized in the early part of February. This club, which meets every two weeks in Room 409, is spon- sored by Mr. Iames Atty. This club has produced many spirited remarks from those attending and a great interest has been manifested in it by the students. The subject of the first two meetings was Should We Send Aid to England? In special talks Ralph Graff opposed, and Iames Replogle advocated aid to Britain. Other subjects were: The Value of College, Should We Convoy Ships to England? Is the Draft Good or Bad? and Pan-Americanismf' The officers are Ted Rodgers, presi- dent, Marjorie Esch, vice-president, and lean Ann Custer, secretary. To Dear Old Johnstown High. JOHN H.

'o's' 'Q 35.7 S HTHLETICS IN1--uns FOOTBALL NEW TRENDS MARK FOOTBALL SEASON The nineteen hundred and forty foot- ball season, While not so successful from the games Won and lost standpoint, mark- ed many changes in the football policies of Iohnstown High School. This year for the first time in CI good many years the football team played many of its games under the arc lights of the Point Stadium on Friday evenings. During the nights of September and Octo- ber, before the Weather became too chilly for their supporters, the gridders perform- ed at an hour which had been strictly forbidden by the Board of Athletic Con- trol until the present time. Another new policy which was put into practice during the latter part of this year was the organization of a school student cheering section. Many of the other large schools which the team had visited during the years Were Observed vlllmlimr Rulin- xv.-.qw Rlslwll Ruilvtlq llvnlmt llnrm ll VN .igni- Duns Sm. km to have had efficient cheering sections. Noticing the lack of this at our school, the pupils and officials determined to do something about it. While they Were searching for a possible solution to the problem, student pep rallies were held in the high school auditorium on Friday aft- ernoons before the games. Then a stu- dent cheering section Was organized at the Point. It was established in the tem- porary bleachers erected at the Iohns Street side and consisted of the band, cheerleaders, students, graduates, and any other person interested in cheering for dear old Iohnstown High. This new in- novation first functioned for the New Castle game and proved such a decided success that it will probably be adopted for next year. The Board of Athletic Control of Iohnstown High School, Whose picture you see below, is the absolute ruler of the policies of the sports program during the course of each season. 128 SPORTS CZARS Below We see the five men Who mould the material of Iohnstown into our expertly functioning football, basketball, and track squads. Mr, Clark Shaffer is the hard-Work- ing coach of the basketball squad, the B team, the track squad, and an assistant coach of the football team. In addition to his coaching duties, he is the instructor in physical education. Mr. Albert lPatsyl Rubis is the brains behind the coaches. Not that he directs the coaching, but that he looks after the financial proceeds from the sports program. He is the financier who plans everything so that our athletic teams Will not Come out in the red, or Wrong side of the ledger. g-311 gas .... M., Turkey 'N Everything Il.

He makes sure that every member is in good health and de- velops their muscles so that they will not be easily injured during the course of a long and arduous campaign. This task he looks after to a great extent during the training campaign which all prospective football players take at Camp Reynolds before the official season opens. Aside from his coaching duties, Mr. Weigle is an instructor in physics and chemistry for the practical arts students. Mr. Harold fDukel Weigle is the head coach at Iohnstown High School. He diagrams the football plays, teaches each player where he is supposed to be at a certain time, and puts these plays into practice, first by themselves and later against a scrub team. Thus he is responsible for the efficient functioning, pertaining to a good von-and-lost record, of the team. Mr. Weigle devotes all his time to football and does not coach any other athletic sport. He does, however, act as an instructor in the English Depart- ment of the high school. He also teaches many of the students health. The last coach, Mr. Ellsworth Kunkle, is one of the three coaches in charge of the spring sports program. The other two are Mr. Shaffer, who has charge of track, and Mr. Ralph Weigle, who has charge of golf. Mr. Kunkle, who also teaches chemistry in our high school, conducts the affairs of the tennis team. However, high school will need to have a replace- rrvent for him next year because he was drafted to serve in the army. 131 bicrnlmk Rum 9 Melkxll' All ll ' M ll lxnrlcxxllz v u O z I Killvn R-N Kluclmlt K-H l Bvrllwll SMI l Ron lf lilo lmxluzxli Nl-I l H1109 Kin l Nllrlunlrlu VVUH Govlwrt llunl Cflrprutrr YM w Smgyr Rim' 7 Corlcv Silflx lxmsuvull VVV Row 4- Sha Klnr-lurk Kun IH-rmwk 'llvr C cl 91 llcllxlk Rulr 15 f , ' .ns nw . nr l,i-rr 'ru RIHIH lf.1lIl Row l- Nfl: 'llnrclilal Sm llnulrvs:.llx llvl ls . mgvr Pull Drxmtv Rus rin' llm Row 'A Hr 1 wm lllll K l Q rut lhlpg f -qv.---.Ts B TEAM, I.:-I-1' 'ro Rnsm Rim' I Lniismlwlc.

GAMES 1oHNsTovvN WHITEWASHES IAY HIGH On Friday night, September 6, the I. H. S. squad inaugurated the opening of the 1940 schedule by easily defeating Iay Township High School, 52 to U. Within seven plays alter the kick-off, Chupko lugged the leather over the goal for the Trojan's first score, Then followed a route in which Chupko and Torchia each made two six-pointers and Price, Bennet, Le- chak and Carpenter each one. Three ex- tra points were kicked by Schellhammer and one carried across by Carpenter. SUCCESS CONTINUED FOR I. H. S. The following Friday night after the Iay High game, a valiant but out-played Hurst eleven faced the mighty Trojans. Scoring fifteen points in the first half and adding another seven during the second half, the I. H. S. team easily served up the victory by a 22 to U score. Touchdowns were made by Makar, Chup- ko, and Torchia, with Schellhammer kick- ing two extra points. FIRST DEFEAT FOR SQUAD After blitzing through their first two games, the mighty Trojans ran full tilt into an immovable eleven from Glass- port. Fighting desperately but to no avail against a more rugged and experienced team, the Trojans left the field of action with a score to the tune of I9 to 6 against them. This game, not in the W. P. I. A. L. League, did not place Iohnstown out of the running for the championship. IOHNSTOWN REGAINS WINNING WAY Rebounding from the setback given to them by the Gladiators of Glassport, the 132 ' brawn and muscle boys of I. H. S. de- feated a dogged team from McKeesport by the score of 26 to 6. Facing the Tigers Without the services of Clyde Maser, Bill Safko cmd Fred McKenzie, the Trojan cause seemed lost, but the boys were de- termined to win this game to avenge a defeat administered by McKeesport in 1938. Touchdowns were made by Spack, Makar, and Chupko, with Schellhammer booting two extra points through the uprights. I. H. S. DEFENSE FAILS Withstanding a powerful team from Erie Academy for three quarters, the I. H. S. team collapsed in the fourth quarter to give the visitors a 12 to U victory. Vain- ly striving to avoid defeat, the Trojans underwent their second defeat of the sea- son. During the first three quarters, the game was a rough and tough fracas, but in the last quarter the I. H. S. defense fell apart and the Academites scored all their points. This game not being in the W. P. I. A. L. League, Iohnstown still has a crack at the title. RED RAIDERS SUBDUE TROIANS In one of the hardest fought games of the season, Weir High of Weirton de- feated the previously twice-beaten Iohns- town team by a score of 20 to 13. The visitors avenged a defeat they suffered last year. Iohnstown is still in the run- ning for the league title. VISITORS BLAST IOHNSTOWN'S HOPES In their worst performance of the year, the fighting Trojans were subdued by Clairton by a score of I4 to 6. Capitaliz- ing on a thirty-yard pass and a twenty- six yard run, the Cobras decided the fate of Iohnstown in the league running. And so without a chance for the title, a dreary I. H. S. team faces the remainder of its schedule. IOHNSTOWN GAIN A CLOSE DECISION After suffering three straight set- backs, a revamped I. H. S. team defeated a fighting Charleroi team by the count of 7 to U at Charleroi, on Friday, October 26. Scoring on a fumble in the first quar- ter, the Trojans successfully protected their lead throughout the battle. This game was the best played by Iohnstown during this year and they looked like a strong, fighting team. VICTORY OR DEFEAT? In what was really the hottest-con- tested game during the season, an Al- toona eleven was awarded a l to U ver- dict over Iohnstown. After a misunder- standing during the game, pandemoriium broke loose during the closing seconds of the game in the form of a riot. The blame for the confusion was placed on the I. H. S. team, and so Altoona was awarded the decision. AGED PLAY SPELLS RUIN A thirty-nine yard run, and a fifty-six yard drive spelled victory for the New Castle Hurricanes against the I. H. S. Tro- jans on Saturday afternoon, November 2, by a score of l3 to U. Using the ancient Statue of Liberty play to set up both touchdowns, the visitors easily pushed across the goal for two six-pointers. After Iohnstown held the Hurricanes scoreless m,W,t,. . in the first quarter, they pulled the an- cient play and scored late in the second quarter. They again crossed the I. H. S. goal in the last quarter. IOHNSTOWN BEATEN IN FINAL GAME After the Trojans held a determined Ieannette eleven scoreless for three quar- ters, the Iayhawks came through in the final frame to nose out Iohnstown by a score of 13 to 7. Iohnny Makar galloped eighty yards in the second quarter for the Trojans' only score. The game looked like a complete victory for Iohnstown, until the last quarter when the Iayhawks really put on steam and clinched the victory. The game was played in a sea of mud and hindered both teams in using their aerial attacks. The contest was the clos- ing game for the Trojans whose season's total included seven defeats and four victories. A SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING On Saturday, November 3, the Iohns- town High School Trojans, already on their way to a poor season, and the Al- toona High Mountain Lions, yet to suffer their first deefat, clashed in a gridiron classic. Although outweighed and less experienced than their Altoona foe, the Trojans, playing without the services of their captain and ace lineman. Roman Siemback, fought their opponents to a O-U tie at the half. Then, in the third quarter they began to get up steam and threatened to score. However, they were thwarted and the game resolved into a punting duel. After one of these punts by Chopko was supposedly downed by Singer, the Altoona quarterback picked up the ball and carried it back deep into Iohnstown territory. Here the Trojans protested but were informed by the referee that he had not blown his whistle falthough all the Iohnstown players and many of the fans claimed to have distinctly heard itl. and the play was perfectly legal. Demoralized by this unusual turn of events, the Trojans presented no opposi- tion and Altoona managed to score a touchdown. When the players lined up for the extra point, the fans, who had been climbing over the fence from both sides of the field. began pouring onto the field, one of them reaching the referee and attacking him. Stopped short! 136 Touchdown l This precipitated a riot which reached pandernonium when a large part of the 15,000 spectators joined in the free-for- all. Things happened from there on so fast that no one was able to give an accurate account of the happenings un- til some time laler. It seems that Duke Weigle, seeing the seriousness of the bat- tle, withdrew his team to the sidelines. The officials, especially and particularly the referee, were knocked about by the enraged fans, and, blaming the con- fusion upon Iohnstown and its coaches, awarded the Altoona team a 1 to 0 forfeit victory. As a result of this riot the ath- letic relations between the two schools Slightly Muddy were broken off for a period of five years by the District Vl P. I. A. A. Board. The result that should come out of the Whole affair is that the Iohnstown High School officials demand a guarantee from the town where we intend to play that they have ample police protection. If the police force at Altoona had been strong enough, they could have prevent- ed the fans from crawling over the fence and thus have kept them off the playing field, which would have quelled the riot. As it was, the force was not even strong enough to control the number of intoxi- cated persons wandering around the park. 'T New Casile Mud CHEERLEADERS Rah! Rah! I-O-H-N-S-T-O-W-N. Yeafa-ay Team! Fight, team, fight! These are the sounds that I, the megaphone, am forced to amplify to the crowds at the various games. Sometimes I receive rather rough treatment from the cheerleaders, especially when one team makes a touchdown. But could they get along without me? I am necessary when they try to exhort cheers from the crowds at the games and also at special pep meetings. The boys on the squad were selected by some of the faculty and the senior cheerleaders after a special tryout. The girl members were chosen by the Girls' Pep Club. They looked quite snappy this year in their new outfits as they paraded in front of the band. Their white suits were a pleasing contrast to the blue uniforms of the band. The newly established cheer- ing section which was seated in the tem- porary bleachers proved more effective at noise-making than those of former years. BASKETBALL VICTORY IN OPENER With the second team stealing the show, Iohnstown High's basketball quin- tet opened their schedule with a 19 to 17 victory over Conemaugh Township. It Was anybody's game until midway in the third quarter, when the Trojans gained a few points and held this slim margin throughout the game. IOHNSTOWN TAKES SECOND WIN Overcoming a determined but out- classed team, Coach Clark Shaffer's re- cruits crumbled a fine team from Somerset to the tune of 25 to 22. Due to the superior defense and shooting of the home team, the Trojans were able to shelve the County-seaters in short order.

Captain Earl Price was high scorer for the Iohnnies and demonstrated some fancy foul shoot- ing. CONEMAUGH EASY WIN Performing in almost perfect style, the I. H. S. cagers ran ragged a formation of Indians from Conemaugh to a 32 to ZZ score. Rippling the cords almost at will and then protecting these points, the Trojans gained an easy victory.

With both teams guarding their bazlcets jealously, the final score was comparatively low. Although leading in points, the Trojans were forced to keep on their toes in order to check the invaders. MEN OF TROY SUFFER FIRST SETBACK Badly outclassed from the opening minutes, a courageous team of Trojans suffered its first defeat by a crew from Westmont to the sad tune of 46 to 27. The play Was fairly even during the first half between the two teams, but when the second stanza opened it was all the hill- toppers'. TROIANS DROP SECOND GAME Stung by the Ferndale Yellow Iackets, the Blue and Black suffered its second defeat of the current season. Holding a .,-.,..... .... ,.... , W, -- eww-, A., f..., s. , ...NYM - 7 -. Will it go in or won't it? five-point lead in the second quarter, Iohnstown collapsed and the jackets were headed for victory. The final count, after the dying swan finish, was 30 to 27. BLUE AND BLACK TAKES NINTH WIN Flashing the style of champions, the Trojans pinned a 46 to 26 defeat on the boys from Somerset. With the county- seat boys being unable to get started and the Iohnstown boys ringing the hoop from all angles, the Trojans looked the part of champions. BULLDOGS BITE BACK The Trojans of Iohnstown were bitten by the Bulldogs of Portage in a close scrap, with the final outcome a 26 to 25 victory for the Doggies. With the score standing at 23 all at the end of the final quarter, the boys were forced to play an extra period. This was the third loss suffered by the Trojans during the current season. AVENGE ON EARLIER SETBACK Delivering l4 points in the final frame, the Trojans avenged an earlier defeat by smothering Westmont by a blitz score of 35 to 21. It was the Trojans' night as they rang shots from all over the floor. This victory enabled Iohnstown to con- tinue in the running for the District 6 eliminations. CLOSE SCORE Squeezing through With a couple points in the second half, Iohnstown was able to beat off a determined team from Windber and go on to win 20 to 17. The game was a real thriller until the end, and the real outcome was not certain until the final seconds. TROIANS TAKE STING OUT OF YELLOW IACKETS Strutting their best form of the year. the Trojan quintet blasted a highly touted Ferndale squad by a score of 48 to 35. With Ferndale doing an elfoldo act in the last quarter, the Blue and Black artists quickly jumped down-beaten Yellow jackets and romped home with the bacon. IOHNSTOWN INVADES INDIANA SUCCESSFULLY The Trojans again downed a hard fighting aggregation of Indians from In- diana 34 to 26. Playing on the Indians' floor, the Trojans weren't sure of them- selves until the second half, when they went on a rampage and sewed up the victory. TROIANS WIN AGAIN Giving their best performance of the year, the Trojans invaded Ebensburg and swamped the Red Devils by a score of 45-23. WINDBER TURNS TABLES ON IOHNSTOWN Closing a highly successful season against Windber, the Blue and Black forces dropped their fourth game of the year. The Trojans were leading until the second stanza when they became shaky and dropped a 34 to 26 victory to the Miners . POST-SEASON TILTS Winning the required 5l !o of their games during the season, the Iohnstown High basketball team was eligible to com- pete in the District 6 elimination playoffs. Their first game was against Ferndale, which they won 21 to 20, after a spirited and hotly contested game. Then the Blue and Black forces ran into a more deter- mined team from Franklin and were downed by a 35 to 26 score. Franklin later went on to win the District 6 crown. The current season was highly suc- cessful and the members of the Spectator staff as do the students of I. H. S., wish to congratulate Coach Shaffer and his win- ning team of Trojans whose score during the season was l3 won and 4 lost. Boys winning letters this year are Captain Earl Price, Raymond Fornwald, Iohn Patrick, Iames Brown, Richard Raab, Donald Davis, Lawrence Schellhammer, Charles Ritz, Ioe O'Donnell and Steve Goisovich. INDUSTRIAL BOYS FORMULATE NEW LEAGUE The practical arts boys organized teams and formed a basketball loop among themselves. The games were played on the Iohnstown High School gymnasium floor atter school during the days when the regular high school team had a game scheduled. These games served as an outlet for the athletic ability of these boys. They also encouraged a spirit of friendship and sportsmanship among the many boys in the practical arts course. MEMBERS OF TEAM HAVE SUCCESFUL DEBUT IN INDEPENDENT LEAGUES Some of the varsity players on our current basketball team organized as the Statler's Cleaners team and entered some of the independent tournaments. They played successfully in the two Windber tournaments, winning one and being run- ner-up in the other. The members of the team received gold basketballs and bronze medals, While the team, its high scorers, and the outstanding players re- ceived trophies. HIT HIM AGAIN! An innovation for the basketball games ot Iohnstown High School was the starting of boxing matches between halves ot the game. The idea originated at the first Ferndale game when a wrestling match was staged at the half. Then Windber and Iohnstown decided to have boxing matches. The two students from our high school who boxed credit- ably were Fred McKenzie and Lew Yonkers. TENNIS Swish! The ball bounces oft my stringy frame, crosses the net, and hits the ground far from Where my opponent can reach. My master winds up, and again I hit the ball over the net tor an ace. The set and match are won. Most of you pupils are acquainted with me, because I am the ruling force over a tennis game commonly known as A. Racquet. its Il I I , 1 H it P- -W -.v 1- - . -.Y mrll A' - A I Q A ri , 1 X f x X' 1' This year, clue to my unceasing use by the members of the Iohnstown tennis team, I am responsible for its very good showing. The squad was entered in com- petiton in Sections 5 and 4 oi the W. P. I. A. L., and in a local tennis league, which was just formed this spring, including Iohnstown, Ferndale. Westmont, Southmont, Conemaugh Town- ship, and South Fork. In a preliminary match the netters tied an Alumni team. 3-3. Then they got oft to an auspicious 146 start by thumping Greensburg and Fern- dale by 5-U scores. Later they scored wins over a strong Ieannette squad, 3-2, and over Southmont, 4-l. The home matches were staged at the municipal tennis courts at Roxbury. The coach ot the netters, Ellsworth Kun- kle, had many veterans from last year to help him through the tough schedule. Well, I must say good-bye now, be- cause my master has returned from his rest. Swish! GOLF I, Mr. White Golf Ball, am going to let you know something about myself and my works. As the winter gradually fades away and summer once more begins to blossom, I know that my task is near at hand. After being cleaned and neatly polished, I, along with my brother, Mr. Long Drive, am taken to the field for our test. As soon as we help our owner sur- vive his test, we enter the matches with other teams, still bringing our master in the winner. Perhaps I should not say that we win every contest, but the golf team as a whole usually makes a very good show- ing. This year Ralph Weigle, coach of the team, entered his group of drivers in Sections 5 and 4 of the W. P. I. A. L. We also received special permission from the Iohnstown Municipal Recreation Com- mission to use Berkley Hills Golf Course for our home contests. YQ TRACK I am one of the most useful things at a track meet. Although I do not perform any important function, it is from me that all the results of each meet are taken. I am a track meet record sheet. As each event of the meet is run off, an official writes upon me such things as the win- ners, placers, times, and schools which the athletes represent, and the points each school receives. After each meet I am carefully filed for future reference. This year I have had the pleasure and honor to be associated with the Trojan track squad of Iohnstown High School. According to my figures, the team as a whole and its athletes in particular turned in a fine record this spring while following the most interesting schedule outlined in a number of years. First came a dual meet with Conemaugh Township. After that, the four-year-old rivalry flour- ishing between Iohnstown, Greensburg, and Ieannette was kept alive when the triumvirate met at the Cochran track this year. Then, entering local competi- tion, the squad took part in a triangular meet with Ferndale and Westmont. Next. the Trojan thin-clads participated in the twelfth annual Iunior Pitt track and field meet held at Cochran on May 2, the coaches' meet at Altoona on May 3, and the District VI meet on May l7, also held at Altoona. Boys that placed either first, second, or third in the district meeting had an opportunity to vie for state honors at the meet at State College Where athletes from thirteen school sections in the state competed. This year's track squad, although quite large and inexperienced, performed cre- ditably in all the meets and gave promise of many more victories in future years.

STRAIGHT AND NARROW Although I am straight- ' W? edged, I am by no means s t r a i g h t- llwxffg laced. You'll note that in Xq5'f.f.7I? !f 4 . time. Being straight- edged iden- lg tifies me as K' ' :L ' a ruler, the boon of the scientific amateur and the headache of physics students. I say head- ache because it is by me the pupils illustrate or perform their experiments. It's actually pathetic at times: the way they helplessly place me this way or that, wondering how they should draw that blessed line. Now in physiology class, it's differ- ent. My duty isn't at all varied. I get so tired, especially my one inch mark, from measuring off and ruling sheets day after day in the same old way. It does make them more attractive, though. My most enjoyable land dangerousl hours are in the chemistry lab as I watch inexperienced pupils daringly, or un- knowingly, mix chemicals. They aren't satisfied until the thing explodes and then they seem to feel that they ve accom- plished something. It's a matter of opinion! COMPLAINT S W I S H! ,WW - D a g w o od?

Seems to me that each day they cut the time shorter until I wouldn't be surprised to see someone sportingly at- tempt to start at the bottom of the steps and beat the sound waves of the bell to his room. Now, my official duty as stair post is to support rails. However, here are a few students who use me to cut short a corner. They dash madly up the steps, grab me to make the best of their momen- tum, and race on up the next flight, leav- ing me quite dizzy. Of course, I don't ex- pect an apology or even a hurried con- trite glance, but I do maintain that there is no reason for them to use me in such a capacity. Every time I see one of those loafing hurriers. I steel myself and heartily wish he would become a hurry- ing loafer. Oh! Oh!-where are my as- pirins? Here comes one of them now- Z-O-O-M! You see?

Thump! 25c. Thump! Thump! lUc. Thump! Thump! 2Uc. Thump! Thump! l5c again! And so on. That, my dear friends, is a personal greeting from me, Cash Register, to you, the student body. I have just been interviewed by one of the inanimate staff reporters who has asked me to dictate a few words of per- sonal history. When at noon you students are eat- ing a hearty meal, I too am being well fed. I digest dollars and half-dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, and then hand them back to you as change. But, to be sure, this is not the limit of my activities by any means! I spend much of my time observing the various lunch courses chosen by the teachers and you: consequently, I am an authority on diet. For example, people are of three too types: namely, too fat, too thin, or too medium. Now most too fat people se- lect vegetables and milk, but absolutely no bread or potatoes! Too thin people get bread, potatoes, meat loaf, and pie, and lots of fat in hopes that it will stick to the ribs. Too medium people don't care whether they eat or not. It is just a habit and so they follow along. It doesn't really matter what they eat because they won't get fat on potatoes and they won't get thin on spinach, so they compromise on vegetable soup. Oh! Oh! The eleven-fifty bell has just rung and here comes the mob. Look out! I can't stand it! I can't! Keep them away! Keep them away! No! No! No-o-o! Thump! l5c. Thump! 25c. Thump! 20c. Thump! l5c again. This is likely to continue for a half- hour before the last stragglers get through the line. Then I am at restg but I can- not sleep yet because of all the noise. The banging of dishes, the munching of celery, the shouts of distaste when some- one finds salt in his water--all these continue until, little by little, the howling mob is satisfied and slowly the cafeteria becomes empty again. This peaceful state of affairs is, I assure you, most welcome. At one o'clock I retire for the day. If you should pass me after that please don't bother to speak to me as I am probably a nervous wreck, and I might not be ready for work the next day. Tick, tock, tick tock-the clock's ticking rocks me gently to sleep. In a few moments all my quarters will be settled and I can rest to await the coming of the dawn. 3 i are I ' -es v 4,441 Q 5 le X V II Isis- ! 1 J fa J L .gg ,V 1 I9 2, if 4' kt f J KHMHZN W wzllx 1+ 1 'YV E' If-,Ag C q life JH: M24-f ft, its J ,gm- Lai G !+g,-zii'f'U' L .7 ,g u 11:555sl:5S5i:f1:t x::'!f-ff--.f ' - if .11 f . ,g:g,r,q7 i,,,,,5,,j:'2 ' f' f, f, 'v..1.-.-tw:wp- Q l!!!1fE:5E'1j:s::gl!.lg 3El1UU!l5'ff:: , Z, 79. 155 l'l'nlrz1lnly clisvussing ilu- nvw lmy l'l'it'll4l .

CLOCK-EYED TALES I enjoy the privilege of being abso- lute dictator of high school life. fQuite appropriate, too, in this day and age of dictators! By me, classes are changed. lunches eaten, and tests taken. Some- times the process is reversed and the test takes the pupil. At any rate, the most interesting thing I have seen is a student frantically trying to complete a test in one minute. The paper, so beauti- fully begun, becomes a horrible jumble of feverish scribbling. Then I am often amused by a sup- posedly intelligent girl giggling when a boy at the other end of the room im- pressively twists his face into unbeliev- able contortions. Certainly this is high school but as I watch an obliging pupil sit so as to hide his friend behind him who smirks and'lets fly a paper wad, even I wonder. Say-what's that in the corner? Bless me, if it isn't a noble lad in the pro- cess of growing up. There he sits, ten- derly stroking his carefully nursed stub- ble, consisting of no less than three hairs. When he raises five more, he will, no doubt, indulge in his first shave and begin to think seriously of his responsi- bilities as man. Ah yes, and that girl just below me- Ouch! That metal ball just struck my gong. Look at them go-rushing, trip- ping, babbling, and acting in general as though they're really going somewhere. PUPPY LOVE Sis says that puppy love is the be- ginning of a dog's life. H-m-ml Could be! Anyhow, I feel that I'm quite an authority on that subject, having observed it in practically every stage. Yes, sir, give an ear while Prof. Hob Knob lectures. Now the first stages are almost im- perceptible, except to an experienced eye like my own. Two pupils hurriedly glance at each other in passing, and then practically twist their necks in looking back. Well, 'tisn't long until the two manage an introduction, and the next time they pass me they are talking of teachers or favorite subjects. Both are the essence of politeness. After a few weeks. the conversation swings to a different channel. The girl tells the boy what a really marvelous dancer he is. Oh, ac- tually!! Then, of course, the gallant lad continues with, Well, anyone could dance well with you. This goes on, with slight variations, oi course, until the first quarrel. Oh boy, and how the words do fly then. Up goes her nose to on all-time high, and off he stalks, swearing off women for life. However, it isn't long f -.1 until they're reconciled again, and then the pro- cess is repeated-so on, ' and so on, like the pro- verbial merry-go-round. It becomes boring after a while. Now the point is this. At least 99.6 per cent of all high school students are afflicted with this horrible malady in varying degrees of seriousness. However, if I should dare to insinuate that such is the case, I should be the object of their unleashed furies. Therefore, I won't in- sinuate, I'll tell you, because as a door knob, I've seen and heard enough to speak with authority. rr I fe if H' It 1 fl g- .- ,HW I -R d'Ii ' , iq,-X Swiss,-.,.-g ,--.' nity AQ -1 L N2 1, 'fd R5 will W I f vig ffm ill 4' ' 5 tstxl X X61 C , .........r..s- w lwuls nl ilu- flux ...... that hlllllllll s Iml'll'1lY Sllill Sllill .

'AQ - girls have made ml -. -ii, . ii J f-it , great strides to- r-' An ward overcoming c o n v e n t i o n- ality by wearing more practical clothes. Take those earmuffs, for instance. Two years ago, they were indicative of a lo- cal yokel from Deer County. Now, they grace the daintiest lobes in school. Then, too, those military boots are even more practical than chic. Not to mention warm, furry mittens and hats that actually re- semble hats. Finally, just ask any chiropo- dist how his school cases have dropped since the girls are consistently wearing flat-heeled shoes. For the boys, I cannot be so optimis- tic. Savage impulses are disclosed by their colorfully expressive clothes. Here comes one now. Iust let me describe him. Gracing his touseled head is a flat- crowned corduroy hat with what, bless Bess, looks like his dad's shaving brush sticking jauntily in its band. His tan shirt and green tie seem logical enough- but oh, just give a wary eye to that sweater. It's violent blue is enough to make one flinch, but for the effect created when it combines with the scream- A ing green trou- ' nw sers, a new ad- Al 2 jective must be , ,, W, coined. Violently visible fag fad -L 'neath his rolled- , up cuffs are such '. ' .. loud striped socks I can almost hear them. Each is an intensified spectrum. Reds and greens fight a losing battle with powerful yellows and purples. Support- ing this walking color scheme are crepe- soled brown moccasins, the only remnant of the old brown and navy blue days. The point? Iust this. If you've got a flair for wild designing, forget women's hats. The new field is boys' clothing. ini- A eesf is v gf 41.3 I x .xv . 'eglwl-1 -I I , 4 ra 9 nl' K- rt 3 f I , ur!

S. students besides grass skirts and lack of education? Certainly not wild dancing. My position as the wrist watch of a jive-cat is just as shaky as that of any native's wreath of flowers. litter- bugging was bad enough but this year's dancing has reached an all-time high in acrobatic perfection. My owner calls it modern dancing. I won't argue but if twirling, leaping, hopping, and pecking are interpretive of her up-to-dateness, all I can say is monkeys just ain't de cwaziest peoples and furthermore, I'm tempted to believe that what goes up must come down-including civilization. Sally never shows any after-effects of those hectic hours but occasionally I end up against the wall. Right now I'm in for repairs-for the fifth time. Perhaps the tenth time will give her the bright idea of removing me while dancing? At any rate I can console myself with the fact that jitterbugging might lose popularity as do most fads-if I can live till then. Dcris and Dorothv VVnlliame wa me .qv 5 160 MM MISS MEG A.

There's the little German band across the floor, adding their peppy music to the noise. Here come the teams, but they're just practicing. The crowd's going wild in the final scramble for seats. Above the shout- ings, laughter and cheers I can hear the proverbial Peanuts - Popcorn - Candy. Everyone is getting into the spirit now and this is one room in school where noise is welcome. The crunching of pea- nut shells, loud, good natured boo's of rah's tossing of hats, rustle of candy wrappers, and scuffle for seats is all a part of the game. There's the whistle now. The game is beginning. How fast and furious it is! Blue has the ball, he's dribbling across the floor, Red interferes and dribbles back to this side, passes to a team mate, but Blue intercepts, passes to another Blue who makes a basket! What pre- cision! Listen to that crowd cheer! But what of the other side? There they go -right up for a basket, this crowd is cheering just as loud and long for these lads as they did for their own team. This isn't play tor blood, but good clean fun for all. So it goes until the final whistle has blown, and everybody is crowding out the door to get up to the audion where a reception is being held by the '41 Club. I won't have anything to do up there, so I'll say So-Long now, and hope I'll see you at the next game. LAMENT I'm probably the most misunderstood ob- TRUANC 2 , , , HDMI ject in school and it , makes me miserable. In K li size and appearance I , ' am small and unas- S,-' suming. just a pink slip L of paper with a special ' fl significance like any , , graduation or promo- g,f-gf tion certificate. How- f ff ever there are several queer things about me. X For instance, pupils take the greatest delight in earning me and show just as great a reluctance to re- ceive me. Queer, isn't it? Furthermore, there's an unwritten law about me among the students. It seems that to go through two years without possessing or at least earning me deprives a pupil of his right to say that he has enjoyed every phase of high school life. Even though I have no power of speech, I tell two stories. To students I am mute evidence of an en- joyable afternoon, but when presented to teachers, my story is not so pleasant. I may earn anything from a disgusted or condescending glance to a violent lec- turn for my owner, but after all, duty is duty. J Oh yes, I am quite indispensable, but in spite of enjoying a sense of im- portance and a fair amount of popu- larity, I can't be happy.

Not that Monday, Tuesday, and all the rest are too hard on my constitution, but Saturday is the nicest. Take, for example, my experience last Monday. I received no less than four hundred kicks, six good knob rattlings, and two hundred and fourteen slams, twenty of them in people's faces. Tuesday noon I was almost pulled off my hinges by three fellows who hung on me while they had one of those lf and Maybe arguments. I wish they would play their old football game on the field. They depress me no end. While this was going on, about six hundred boys and girls squeezed between them, under them, yes, and over them, with me taking all the bounces. Wednesday it rained. My main com- plaint that day was the splashing I re- ': ceived from the raincoats and slickers, not to mention the neat little tops of closing umbrellas. I came around all right, though, after a good rubdown by one of the kind janitors. Thursday was my most humiliating day of the whole week. Iust before the final assembly bell, two girls and three boys walked right up to me. They all made nasty grimaces-I believe they are commonly called snoots. One boy even thumbed his nose in my general direc- tion. I'll get even, though. Some day I'll give him a good heel-squeezing. Finally Friday arrived. Then I took my real beating. Iust imagine sixteen hundred wild students fighting to be freed for the weekend. They came fly- ing at me a mile a minute. You can figure out for yourself the number of kicks I re- ceived, all on the wrong side, too. Yes, Sir, as the front door of I. H. S., I'll tell you, I LIKE SATURDAY :rx Q: f .
