Representing the citizens, the Board of Education has chosen the most capable superintendent they could possibly find. Mr. Clarence C. Vlfylie, who has been Superintendent of Ligonier Public Schools for the past seven years, is striving to transmit to the students the true ideals of democracy. As an effi- cient executive, we have found him wise, tolerant, and understanding. We always receive kindly advice and encourage- ment when we go to him for counsel. Besides his work in moulding t.he lives of youth, Mr. Wylie is especially in- terested in French, art, and all bio- graphical material about Abraham Lin- coln. During the World War Mr. Wylie served in France as a sergeant and in- terpreter, and had many exciting ex- periences which he frequently relates to students and teachers. I-Ie also spent some time studying art at Carnegie Tech. Abraham Lincoln is Ivlr. Wylie's greatest American and he would have us pattern our concepts of democracy after those of the Saviour of our Na- tion . In lXflr. Wylie we have discovered a sincere man who is a civic leader. I-le expresses an equal interest in each of his responsibilities whether it is his church, the American Legion, the Vet- erans of Foreign Wars, or the Rotary Clubj Conscious of his fine character, l Mr. Wylie outlines the year's school calendar to Mr McKe1vey the students honor and respect their loyal counsellor. To assist Nlr. Wylie, the Board of Education named Mr. Donald lVlc- Kelvey assistant principal this year. Besides controlling the attendance, he teaches junior and senior English and acts as adviser to the Debate Club. The seniors claim a joke a 'day keeps us all bright and gay so lvlr. lXf1cKelvey up- holds that by telling at least one story a day. To belong to the debate team you must be able to tell riddles, he states, because that is what we do on the way home from debates. An out-of-school activity in which Mr. McKelvey is active is a dramatic orgapization, the Presbyterian Players. Hoi? agailsiobby he has chosen photo- graphy. .Nothing delights him better than ig ,fiijg 'ion pictures of football games. . Tj. Y : , , . - ,,. 5. 2 - . . f'.,- -:.,- - 1..,f. . .ff , .. ,L ,a.

Smith, Bennett, Behrhorst, Blair, M. Babinsky, Eicher, I-I. Smith, Traut- mann, Sabo, Horvath. and PUBLICATION and DEBATE interested some of the most outstanding student.s who assumed the responsibility for editing The Mountaineer and re- presenting L.I-I.S. in county debates. I, the Mountaineer, have long been looking forward to this time when I might express myself on the activities of my staff. My editor-in-chief, Marie Krichbaum, and her assistant editors, Louise Brant and john I-Iolt, met with their faculty advisers, Miss Martin and Mr. Mathews, to make plans for my future. They made my theme Free- dom in order that I too might show my patriotism. In October Mr. Deglau, my photo- grapher, began taking pictures of the underclass groups. These were followed by senior portraits and it really did my heart good to see all those students in their glad rags awaiting their turn to look this way and smile. At this time in order to keep my pictures and write-ups in order a dummy copy was created by Arveda Brant and Nancy I-Iall. A candid camera contest was then staged -to acquire a variety of snapshots to add interest to my pages, Harlan Douglas and Virginia Krichbaum took high honors. I, being no different from any other yearbook, required financial backing. Aware 'of this necessity, Mr. Mathews with the business managers, Florence Menoher, Bill Ciaskin, and Kenneth Barron, not only sold many advertise- ments but also obtained out.side sub- scriptions. March 21 was a red-letter day in my career. It was then that my first copy went to the printer and the upperclass- men on my staff journeyed to a press conference at Vandergrift where they learned solutions to many of my prob- lems. With the enthusiasm of my staff workers in mind, do you wonder that my covers are bulging pridef? Mr, Chairman and Friends: The subject for this debate is: Resolved: that the power of the Federal Govern- ment should be increased. This was the .conventional opening for the de- bates this past season. Under this sub- ject there was a great deal of discussion on the freedom of democracy and the threat of a dictatorship. Mr. McKelvey, the adviser, had a difficult time producing a winning com- bination, but by using Allen Ben- nett and I-Ioward Behrhorst as the affirmative team with Donald Eicher as alternate, and Elmer I-Iorvath and Julius Sabo as negative team with Howard 'Smith as alt.ernate, he man- aged to place one member in the con- ference debate finals. This is the third year in a row he has done this: Kenneth Buell in 1939, James Freeman in 1940, and Julius Sabo in 1941. This year the conference debate finals were held at Carmichaels on March 1. The finals consisted of three debates with the best debaters from' three sec- tions participating: the Little Six, Central Valley, and Southwestern. The best debaters from each of these sec- tions debate for rotating loving cups and medals. Although Ligonier did not win t.he gold cup this year, the de- baters are determined to try again next year. The schedule this year was' two de- bates with each of the schools in the Little Six Conference, the semi-finals at Cwreensburgg the finals at Car- michaelsg two debates with Latrobe, two tournaments at Derry Townshipg and the County Tournament at I-lurst.. . ., .

Rushworth, jr., are part of a Nlusic Department which we are very proud to claim as outstanding in the state. 3 o'clock. Time for orchestra prac- tice. I-Iere are t.he orchestra members ready to play The Blue Danube Waltz. Other select.ions to be prac- ticed today areiqf 'Introduction to the Third Act of Lohengrinu and Victor I-Ierbert's Favorites. With a more complete instrumenta- tion this year than in any other pre- vious year, the orchestra has been able to play compositions much more difficult than ever before. Thus they have enlarged the view of orchestral literature which they are gradually acquiring. The orchestra has never failed to supply appropriate music for our var- ious and numerous school activities. As is customary, they played for the junior and senior class plays, a new development this year, the All-Class school play, made one more engagement as well as the usual Baccalaureate and Commencement activities. Before a playing engagement an indescribable rumpus goes on the basement. This is the orchestra supposedly tuning up. Completing the list of their playing dates was a concert with the Jeannette High School Orchestra during Music Weelc and their participation in the music departments popular assembly program. March 18 a grand reception was given to Captain Cowie on his 76th birthday as the orchestra and band dedicated their assembly program to him. Socially the orchestra was busilyren- gaged also, as they assisted the music department in entertaining the South-- western Pennsylvania Chorus under the direction of Dr. Carey. The girls in the orchestra had their eyes open for tall, dark, and handsome boys while the boys took to the blondes. The Musical Aces played for the dance held for the chorus, band, and orchestra members. The orchestra also enter- tained the A Capella Choir from the University ofDubu-que, Iowa. In the Southwestern Orchestra Festi- val held at Jeannette on November 21, 22, and 23, Elinor I-Iildebrand, Louise Brant, Isabella Trautmann, Patricia Caldwell, Michael Petty, Edward Zu- rick, and 'David Martens represented Ligonier. One of this group, Michael Petty, was chosen to attend the All- State Orchest.ra at Erie. lvlilce will also be a member of the orchestra which will play at Atlantic City, N. J. on May 6 for the Eastern Music Educators' Conference. The string orchestra which has been used this year for the primary purpose of developing the string section of the regular high school orchestra has had no playing engagements. 'As a training group it not only practices the most difficult parts in the full orchestra music but it also plays music written for the string orchestra alone. Careful investigation has revealed that Ligonier is the only high school in the whole district that has a string or- chestra of this type functioning as a separate unit from the full orchestra. It is the ideal group for occasions where larger groups would be unwieldy and hard to transport. . -T ,I - T, 7 ,,', .'.' -'V' I ' '.-. fri ' .'l,' '-'. v T U 't 1 f, I ' T .L 5' - LA., , .. , , V I .X ' , , , .I ' ' P'-X 'ie 2 '1fLf't-gy-' fy '-gs-,-.'y 1-fi-if'.Tr--7,v ':- ,-G' :'v j1--'-'.-ig!! m-4j,Kf4'3'g'-Mf,,b gi-.524-if -QZQ vQ, g-T,-A- E-'q'f'J mir'-lfbgfni 7. 3-'ag115'1,-Iggy:-I-'.--3 ' ' 'A+' - An-5.3--gg-' .sp-,:a x-g,f.'J,-5 you-411141 -1-'wgsl ,fa . . . 1. .LV . ...naw -. -, '-151132-ialfaffkzxsraf1-msfsf'6sf:3f2f'f:L'--:mf-1-1.s-'Q-1-f-is -' -5 '-4f.E2'zi: f wr3wVs:Tf'i:V:fr25f2-'YA 1 'lift'-'J-'Q42-1-i51 3f'NTg'3f' I'?f-,W mffg-1-birfl-1S:?Ts.9ELf'G'fff2i'.F-ewes-1Ss:s:b'f2,eh1i:?

Three plays were presented during the school year: the first by the junior Class, the second by an All-Class cast, and the third by the Seniors. Poor Dear Edgar, the junior Class Play, was presented Dec. 6. It was a comedy in three acts written by VVil- liam Davidson. The play centers a- round the everyday life of the students in Presneld College. After many try- outs, Miss Dickinson chose quite a re- presentative cast. Bill Donovan portrayed the part of Coky Bradford, the college Romeo who held a girl in one arm and a coke in the other. Edgar Appelthwaite, played by john Holt, was more or less the dope of the college. Arveda Brant as Betty Carlisle was the only girl who believed in poor dear Edgar. Marjorie Breniser as Cholera, t.he College Presi- dent's daughter, stole candy for Edgar just because-she liked him College life became exciting when Edgar fell for Diana Dana, the fan dancer, played by Nancy Hall. The play was directed by Miss Dick- inson. Her chief difficulty was keeping Bill Donovan in cokes because the stage managers, Charles Murdoch and Ken- neth Barron, usually drank most of them. Another difficulty was persuading Nan- cy Hall to teach john Holt to dance g finally she gave in, but john wouldn't dance until dress rehearsal. Miss Dickinson shortened practice one evening and the cast enjoyed a party. Here again the stage managers got most of the food, but so that she would not be left out, ,lane Betz forgot about being on a diet and ate more than enough. She was absent from school the following day. Oh, please let me hold Violet, was not a plea to hold a dog or cat, no, Violet, a real deodorized skunk, appear- ed in Early to Bed, Early to Rise. Student actors from all classes gave this comedy Feb. 27 for t.he benefit of a fund to'buy furniture for the stage. The Fuller family was certainly ec- centric from Father, superbly char- acterized by Robert Frye who was con- stantly inventing contraptions that wouldn't work, to the youngest daughter Patsy, played by Florence Menoher, who desired above all things a pet shop and its owner, strange, old Mr. Kir- shmeier, Donald Eicher. In addition john Holt as Bobbie was anxious to be a mechanic, while Virginia Pershing as Spanky was more anxious to get mar- ried. Marie Krichbaum, Marian the lone family supporter, was in love with her employer, Kenneth W elch, whom Mar- gie Haas, a southern belle, tried to steal from her. Ruth johnson attempted to mother this unruly family. The ex- citement was climaxed by joan Nicely, a newspaper reporter, with her, an- nouncement that Patsy had won the Cinderella House. However, by that time the stub to the lucky ticket couldn't be found. Eventually, though the ticket was dis- covered in the parrot's cage, Mr. Kir- shmeier's pet shop was saved, the lovers were brought together, and the very eccentric family prepared to move into the Cinderella House.

The Senior Wash- ington Fund received the proceeds from the play, while all students appreciated the services of the librarians. On April 25 the outstanding dra- matists of the senior class appeared to- gether in their final production, Une Wild Night. The plot centers around Rodney Dodd, a healthy young man, who, because most of his ancestors have been neurotic invalids, refuses to be- lieve that he could live a normal life. The keynote of the Dodd household for five generations has been silence. But when Rodney's Aunt Myra Cpal Dodd arrives for a visit the servants, Henrietta and jodwillow, must wear soft slippers and take all other pre- cautions to restore this silence. Aunt Myra is accompanied by a traveling companion, Charlotte Allen, who is pretty and healthy. At first sight Rodney feels that she is every- thing a woman should be and does his best to make her like him. Rodney overhears his doctor talking about one of his dying flowers and thinks he is re- ferring to him. Since his one desire is to make Charlotte admire him, he spends what he expects to be his last night doing courageous deeds. I-le ex- poses the dangerous gangster, Scorpio, gives his home to a girls' school, his furniture to a charitable institution, promises to sponsor jade Darnelli, a night club singer, .and then returns home to die. In the crisis which follows Charlotte sees' Rodney as a man whom she can admire and respect. Their love for each other is revealed and happiness prevails. The library club is somewhat smaller this year than it has been in previous years but under the guidance of Mrs Urch the student librarians have ac- complished much in keeping our li- brary in the best condition. The girls' duties include mending and recovering books, rearranging shelves, and signing out books. Since the library is essential to the entire school, the work of this organization is vital. At the beginning of the school year Mrs. Urch took three freshmen under her wing, Nancy Hudock, Louise Ma- non, and Kathleen lvleagher, to give them special instruction in the art of mending books. After many disastrous attempts they discovered that it was really possible to drill holes in a book wit.hout breaking drill points, and that if care is taken you can get all your covers on right side up. The library is opened in the morning by the Ziders' sisters, Willa and jean. They finish any work left from the pre- vious day until they are engaged by the large group of students who accumulate here. Catherine Vifeimer and Betty I-lankey take charge during t.he noon hour. At. this time you will find the library filled to capacity because this is its busiest hour. After school, Phyllis Weimer is chief librarian with Dorothy Gilman as her assistant. These girls arrange the books on the shelves and see that everyt.hing is in order for the next day. 1-rfzx I.. -K, --ilL?'6pN --' -1 ak-i-1h':--A--.LQ,,r-12517,1- -:.',:,:3'.,.s,---i.. -3.54-' .Wg 5:4-14.u,, .X -,-,j-gf:--2---im V tl-,I .,.,4+5-'c'rg:, Isp,-g3,5,x.gp.:iAIf1-54,3-..v.i,Lung.,.-iffy.,-,.4,.,i -,,4fY,z7,.9-w.g-':x1j,.Qi,.-4: u'gl.-ggmgxid -gry..--4g1.a.gk,,:g-Q.:sh. ,.-,A , . .t,,?m. .AAL-,,,',,...-An,-1, ., v--rar-N-g,, '-'A'-,F.'1,'f'JU:-'-.l'. 131,-i :. -2' , 4 ff-E-4' u- .-an-A-, N V44 Q',1gj -.,'1..--U -. -g.--'-I-7.4.-'G 'Lia-A'-H 41, -'nm i- '- .W 3-1: , -4:4 -311.--',-'j:,y--1-:w.1i-,-P - f due -i :.,,,X. x-gr-gg .iff-: ',.1 ,..,g,- lg- Mu-1 EPNQ . nf: nl' ., fr- -1-:WXL rf ..-s-5.R,5'g,f t- 121 -eu--r f ? frh-5e2ffvf,gi-Li'-',21.-2-Ze'-53119-',ff,1ft-:Qatar-' 'P' sti'2'??-f355f,'fI5 flff:72W?Tf- 1'5'5,E'5 ?:'5 'las-.3-53.1- 2 1 f'ff fvfsb:-iirs: Q-' faiwgiya-g.g.g,ggB.z ,g?,:24 s -'if-3:4 1S 'wa4wr'Tiq!-25g-1:'E6f1!iztsZq',-1932.454-25411 55,2 -e'?'c5f:qs,,f-5 321pte-'Ni'F.:al'l,-aL2?P.f-- 5Hz-Eff'f- ' f '4'7!E , ,f+ -.s.gF- ff' ' - ve,,5fqQffb .

FUT RE FARMERS and RIFLE CLUB F .F.A. and RIFLE CLUB are two organizations that have functioned this year under rather trying conditions since both have been without adequate supervision much of the time. The Future Farmers of America for this school year was organized last fall with the following officers elected ex- ecutives: junior Shaffer, president, George Rhoades, vice-presidentg Law- rence I-Iauger, secretary, and David Miller, treasurer. Our first local chapter was organized Sept. 16, 1929. Since this organization is nation-wide, there is a chapter in almost every high school where agriculture is part of the curri- culum. All boys in the agriculture course were given an opportunity to join the F.F.A. at their first meeting. Twenty- six members signified their intentions to belong tothis club. Of course, there was the inevit.able initiation followed by a party with plenty of eats Some of the F .F.A. who attended t.he Farm Show held in Harrisburg, jan. 20-23, included David Miller, Warren Shadron, Carl Carney, john Miller, Francis Miller, and Carl lN'IcMillen. In spite of a little flu among the boys, the trip was a valuable experience. On account of the absence of their adviser, Mr. Pershing, the F.F.A. has not been as active and progressive this year as in other years. During t.he first semester Mr. Pershing was busy at the Armory and was available for few meet- ings. Then hc was summoned by the Federal Government to serve as Captain for Co. D of the l03rd Medical Regi- ment at Indiantown Gap. Although Mr. I-lilty, and Mr. Miller who acted as the substitute agricultural teachers, gave the boys excellent guidance, the F .F .A. was not able t.o accomplish as much as in previous years. Early in October the Fort Ligonier Rifle Club held its organization meeting with Mr. Ivliles Ross as instructor. Im- mediately the team began to practice for the first series of National junior Club League Matches which were held: Oct. 29, Nov. 9, Nov. 23, and Dec. 7. Ligonier's standing at the end of this series was ninth place in the United States. The best marksmen who practiced nearly every evening at the indoor range in the basement were Davis Menoher, jay Shirey, James Ferry, Rudolph Bow- man, Wilbert Kennedy, Lawrence Ti- beri, David Martens, William Free- man, james Gibson, and Robert Grif- fith. Their interest never lagged in spite of many discouraging factors such as being without a regular instructor when Mr. Ross resigned his position at L.H.S. At this time Davis Menoher was selected by the t.eam to see Mr. Wylie and try to arrange for the club's future. As none of the faculty members were qualiHed to direct the team, it was finally decided that the club should proceed under Mr. Wylie's supervision. However, Davis Menoher then took over the keys, instructed new marks- men, and directed the meetings. With no interscholastic matches, in- terest fell. But when Miss Keffer and Miss Evans showed their willingness to help, members cooperated with the faculty and displayed a revived interest. Then in the middle of lvlarch, Ivlr. Nevin J. Naugle from Laughlintown be- came instructor of the team. The club entered t.wo teams in the lnterscho- lastic meet at Carnegie Tech, April 19. -,.-gf.1,. .,g f -,..,fc,r'.. ,,,-ww, ,, . -, w '-3 , ,M--.'. , -,.

THE BA THE BAND and our six attractive majorettes certainly have gained wide spread publicity for I..-igonier High School in their numerous public appearances under the direction of Mr. Rushworth. Left, right, left! Here comes the band playing Delmar, their victory song. With the addition of several new mem- bers the second semester, our band now has a more complete instrumentation than ever before. To add t.o its glamour, the six drum majorettes were attractive- ly outfitted in new uniforms of blue and white. This group of students participated in many and varied activities during the school year. It added its moral sup- port by parading at most of the football games. The Republican and Halloween parades would not have been nearly so colorful without the band. It also gave Capt. Pershing and the .local Medical Company a cheerful send-off Feb. 17. Through the financial support of the American Legion and Lions Club, the band was able to make the trip. to the Pitt Stadium where they gave all they had to support the team in t.he basket- ball game with Sharpsburg. Florence Mae Menoher, james Bates, Mike Petty, Bob Myers, and Billy Nicely were humorous figures in a mock wed- ding with the accompaniment of the band in the music departments as- sembly. Gur famous cornet trio, Char- les Murdock, Robert Ceeting, and Ken- neth Barron, played Christmas carols at the Latrobe Lutheran Church and for Family Night at the Tall Cedars' Ceremonial in Greensburg. Four out of eight Ligonier repre- sentatives ranked highest in their sec- tions at the Southwestern Band Festi- val March 20-22 at Westview g our en- trants included P. Caldwell, L. Brant, I.Trautmann, C. Murdock, R. Geeting, K. Barron, W. Noel, and R. Myers. ' .,,. , I ' I4 1 1 . I XI 1, x K! v ii I f T i+ jg , 5 M f f' BQ R f I l f, I XMI I . 1 x III I' 'I TICS I 45,1 5? if!

It ended in a victory over Franklin Township and the Mountaineers emerged with a record of eight wins and one defeat. The defeat was a hard fought game in which they lost to a much heavier Youngwood team by a one point margin. Ligonier gained decisive victories over such opponents as Homer City, Derry, and Trafford. In spite of many injuries throughout the season, the Mountaineers showed a sparkling defense paced by Hamill, brilliant center and captain of the team. The Waugaman coached eleven also showed an excellent offense with Hunter, Fabian, and Johnston doing the greater part of the ball-carrying. Although they failed to win the Class B honors by one-sixth of a point, . Ligonier placed three players on the All-County Class Beleven. The three honored Mountaineers were Johnston, end g Hunter, halfbackg and Nanassy, guard., Gther members of the team who received honorable mention were Takacs and Widich, tackles, Hamill, centerg and Fabian, fullback. The Ligonier junior Varsity, coached by Mr. Dixon, also proved them- selves invaluable on many occasions as head coach Waugaman was forced to rely on them when the Varsity was hampered by injuries.

VARSITY BA KETBALL Three cheers for the Section 13 W.P.I.A.L. and Class B County Basket.ball Champions and their coach, Carl Waugaman. Never before in the athletic history of our school have we won Wider recognition in Western Pennsylvania than during the past year. Students and townsfolk alike are especially proud of a basketball team that can complete a record season of 26 wins to 4 defeats. f With the splendid leadership of their co-captains, Tom Hunt- er and jim Johnston, the squad won all but one of their League games-the contest with Derry Township in the second half of league play. Although our varsity players and coaches are very modest, yet we realize it took real stamina, hours of prac- tice, sacrifice, and control to complete such a record. As Section 13 champions they then went on in the W.P.I.A.l.. Elimination Tourney to defeat Elders Ridge 31-24 in a game played at Blairsville, Feb. 28. And the following XVednesday night the Mountaineers beat South Union in the Norwin gym. More than 600 Ligonier rooters saw this game. Finally they met Sharpsburg in the semi-final game in the Pitt Stadium where after leading by a large margin in the firsthalf, they lost by a 35-38 score. ' ' a 5-.

JUNIOR VARSITY The Ligonier junior Varsity finished the best season any Mountaineer jay- vee team has ever had. With 14 wins and 7 losses during the entire season, the junior Varsity downed many op- ponents who had badly beaten Ligonier in previous years. Coach Dixon started a man-for-man defense which kept the. opponents' scoring down and proved better than the zone defe.nse. The team was composed almost wholly of sopho- mores except Scherban and Prunyi, the Freshman Flashes. 'Ihe big guns of the ,Iayvee attack were Ray Hardy and Zip Molnar, high scoring forwards. Starring as running mates at guard were Tom Baker, Corky Wilt, who showed excellent team-work and plenty of hard work, and Charles Babinsky who will not be in Ligonier next year. Slated for promotion to the Varsity next year are I-lardy, Molnar, Baker, Wilt, j. Shultz, and Mimna. coUNTY TOURNAMENT Once again the Mountaineers jour- neyed to Greensburg to compete in the County Tournament, but this time re- turned victorious, bearing the laurels of a County B Championship. In the opening game the Blue and Whit.e con- quered Avonmore 54 to 25. The Var- sity played most of the first half, and then went on to Blairsville to play Elders Ridge, with the j.V.'s finishing the Avonmore game. In the second en- counter Ligonier downed East Hunt- ingdon 31 to 24. The second team play- ed the whole game, except for the last five minutes, when the first team went in to run up a few more points. ln the semi-finals the Mountaineers subdued Washington Township 44 to 26. The finals brought Ligonier and Youngwood together for the third time this season. The game was close all the way through, with both teams scoring an equal number of field goals, but the Mountaineers scored a greater number of fouls. The final score was 32 to 29. As awards for winning the County B Championship the Mountaineers re- ceived ,twelve gold basketballs and a trophy. . . Q. JN. . . ,, . - .. Q. ...

The, boys' class basketball tourney got underway the last week of March and continued through the first two weeks of April. It consisted of a series of twenty-four games which were play- ed off either in the afternoons or eve- nings. Receipts from these games were added to the fund for purchasing jackets for the senior lettermen. Under the leadership of Johnston and Wuchina, the juniors were the pre- tourney favorites. The Sophs were to be the runner up, with the Seniors next, and the Freshmen in the cellar. In spite of the fact that they won only three of their six games, the Seniors put up a stiff fight. However, they made the path to the champion- ship clear for the Sophomores by de- feating the Juniors. The big guns of the Senior class team were Hunter, Rhoades, and Bates. Prunyi, A. Shultz, and Scherban- some of Mr. Dixons jayvee stars- fought nobly for the lowly Freshmen even though they did lose every game. These games furnished valuable ex- The final game of the tournament, the one between the Sophomores and juniors, was the hardest fought con- test. Each team had four wins and one loss to its credit before this contest. It was nip and tuck all of the way, but the Sophomores, spurred on by Takacs, Nanassy, and Shaffer, their varsity stars, downed the junior favorites by a 25-21 count. Some credit is due to other individuals besides the players: Coaches Wauga- man and Dixon very willingly refereed the games. Oh yes, and we can't for- get Steve Wuchina and john Weber, our score-keepers. Don't worry, Mr. McKelvey, we are coming to you. Yes, you were our ticket-collector with Mr. McCurdy as your Hrst string assistant. Miss Keffer was one of the most loyal supporters of the F rosh. As for coaches, even they were stu- dents whom we can't overlook. Tom Hunter coached the Seniors, Johnston- Wuchina Inc. were the boss of thejuniorsg Ray Manassy took over for the Sophomoresg and john Prunyi led .af the Freshmen. For the benefit of the coaches, we, students, describe the teams in the following way: the Seniors were the mightiestg the Juniors, the favorites 3 the Sophomores, the proud- est, and the Freshmen, the bravest. fr perience for our future players. Tiny juicy Toth surprised the crowd in his ability to outsmart his giant op- ponents,-that is after they found a uniform small enough for our assistant athletic manager.

This year the faculty and student body, especially the boys, had an opportunity to watch the feminine interpretation of the great sport after dismissal Tuesdays and Fridays during February and March All hail to the victors-the SENIORS! Yes, the Seniors are the undisputed Champions with every game chalked up to their credit. Manager Betty Leichliter is very proud of her team. Could we blame her? No indeed! They even had the excitement of traveling to Derry where they met in an en- counter the Derry Senior girls and won 14-9. Before the tournament began, Betty Keffer was almost sure her Greenies would win at least one game. But no such .luck, for they wound up the tour- nament with only defeats. Anyway, we will be looking forward for some ace tion from them next year when they know more how to go about it. Per- haps Manager Keffer's certainty of winning one game might have been the jinx. A little trouble arose during 'one of the junior vs. Sophomore games. Man- ager Louise Brant and june Campbell had the game prot.ested. The game was played over, and mostly because of Ruth Blair's graceful and smooth action, the juniors were the victors. Too bad, Sophomores! Naturally the girls received their bumps, as can be expected in such con- tests. Florence Flash Menoher, dy- namic Senior guard, emptied many a mercurochrome bottle on her frequently bruised legs. Of course a few little ex- ternal injuries didn't' keep. Flossie out of the games, although measles did, once. And those girls with long finger- nails--how they were scorned! Who knows but that may have been their chief means of defense. gAnd, oh yes, the score keeper and timer are not to be forgotten. Alert and forever on the job were Ella Mae Knox and Jeanne jones. We were kept well informed when the games were to be played and of the results by Publicity Manager ,Ioan Nicely. lBoth the Sophomore and Freshman teams were minus valuable players dur- ing part of the tournament 'Gloria Gallo left her teammates to sun herself on the warm sands of a Florida beach. In the second half of the tournament the Freshmen were without the services of Elinor Hildebrand, who was suddenly overtaken with an attack of appendi- citis. These girls were bot.h greatly missed by their respective teams, who had to find substitutes to fill their va- cancies. .... , .,, ,. ... .. .,,.,- Y , g.,..,, J- R, . .

One night when Paul Revere was taking one of his usual midnight rides, his headlights burned out. Unable to detect t.he route numbers, he got off his course and soon found himself in un- familiar territory. He cruised around until daybreak and then stopped .at Harvey's Service Station to locate him- self. The attendant, jack Hull, told him he was on the outskirts of a little town, called Ligonier. Paul drove into town and noticed crowds of young people, loitering on the square. He stopped and asked these young people the occasion for such a gathering. They explained to him that this was Sept. 3, the beginning of another school year. If you've ever heard anything about Paul Revere, you'll remember that he was a civic-minded individual, interest- ed in matters pertaining to the welfare of the people. He felt that he would en- joy attending the assembly he had heard some high school students dis- cussing. He arrived just in time to hear Mr. Wylie's annual opening ad- dress which he' found very inspiring and worthwhile. George Naugle, no- ticing this stranger, secured a room for him at the Breniser Hotel where he rested after his long drive. .It was not until Sept. 10 that Paul returned to the school. He had been in- vited to be present in the homerooms when the election of officers took place. He postponed his plans for returning home until after Friday 13 when the St. Vincent Prep. football game was played. Football was an unknown game to Paul but he knew by the enthusiastic cheers that the Mountaineers were fighting on to victory. By this time, Paul was enjoying himself so thoroughly that he disre- garded his previous intentions to leave. His next adventure Sept. 23 was to accompany the sophomores. through brush and swamp in search of rare biological specimens. Sept. 27 found Paul at the first annual Senior-Fresh- man party, originated by joan Zercher. This was the calm before the storm for on Oct. l, the shy freshmen were forced to make a somewhat embar- rassing debut. james Bates, the un- gracious master of ceremonies, sen- tenced George Stanko to the torture chamber and the results were too pitiful to tell. The Steeple Chase aroused Paul's sporting blood. Students were ready for classes at 8:00 A.IVI. and dismissed at noon in order that t.hey, too, might attend the races. Hislintereslt was then taken by the ne ws of the First group and informal pictures for the yearbook, taken Get. 17. Of course Pauls visit wasn't all roses Cn'0ct. 21, when the First report cards were issued, many sad and forlorn students called on him for consolation. 'Nov 5, Paul, for the first time, saw true democracy at work. In a mock election conducted by the P. of D classes, Wilkie was named as the stu- dents' choice for next president. Our character was unable to be present November 7-8 when the senior class pictures were taken, but he learned the 9 Q i .Sr .Nh ,., . ,. . .. 5... ..-.f.,.,:-pgs ...

JUN- Y1,.Nv:TJ-Jfwjld-kv, E P UL RE ERE VISITS L.H.S. highlights of the occasion from his stu- dent friends. His plan to return to his home for the Thanksgiving vacation was aban- doned again due to our flrst serious snow storm, which occurred November 26. However, his disappointment was counteracted by thoughts of accom- panying some of the boys on a hunting expedition, December 2, the first day of hunting season. Dn December 3 he was introduced to another strange game called basketball. Finding the entire community enthusiastic about the game, Paul decided that he would learn the rules. He was assured that more exciting games were scheduled. December brought viith it many ex- citing festivities, for both Paul and the students: Dec. 6 the players of the junior class made their first appearance in Poor Dear Edgar, Dec. 18 the juniors rejoiced over the beauty of their newly obtained rings, Dec. 19 brought the senior pictures and the football banquetg Dec. 20 was set aside for Chris- mas parties, preceding the long awaited vacation extending to january 2. We didn't see much of Paul for the next few weeks but he was on hand to act as host to the South Western Chorus festival january I6-17-18, at which our school acted as host. Then the flu epidemic caught up with him. lt was Feb. 14 before he made his next appearance. Then we saw him at the Valentine Dance at which Polly Graham and Bill Hoffman were crowned Valen- tine queen and king. The All Class Play Early to Bed , which was pro- duced Feb. 27 to raise funds to buy stage furniture, then aroused Paul's interest. Overjoyed at our winning the sec- tional and county championship in basketball, Paul was present at all the sectional play-offs: Blairsville, Nor- win, and Pitt. On March 21 the upper- classmen on the Publication Staff at- tended a press conference at Vander- grift. Paul didn't attend but when he saw the poster they brought home with them he was sure that they had been given a fine reception. Paul was glad to see the arrival of Easter vacation which extended from April 9 to 15. He, like most of the stu- dents, was suffering from asevere case of spring fever. The attack wore off however and by April 25, the day of the senior class play, he was once again on hand to enjoy another successful dramatic production. The May Dance found Paul in still better shape. He put on a fine exhibition revealing his rug cutting ability. When the yearbook was distributed May 9, our friend was overjoyed at its popularity for he had given the in- spiration for its theme, Freedom. On May lo he sadly saw the seniors turn in their books. He was not sad long, because Monday, May 19, the seniors were back again. This time, not to attend classes, but to start on their long-awaited trip to Washington. And now, on june 4, when school is officially closed, we will guide Paul Revere back into the American History text. in Room nine, feeling sure that he, like the students, will never forget this happy year in LHS. .9 ,pl J.. a 1, . ,..., .Au ,,.
