Each student grew physically, emotionally, and we hope, mentally. Some showed brilliance, others did not. But this year's experiences will be remembered and drawn upon when the student of today becomes the citizen of tomorrow.

CNot Pictured-Board Member, Dr. Andrew P. Chenzoiij School Board This year was a significant one in many respects for the Mars Area School Board. November elections necessitated a reforming of the board in December and the consequent introduction of new members. In Janu- ary all board members were shocked by the death of board president Raymond Nichols. In subsequent meet- ings Parker Dobson was elected the new board presi- dent. However, equally important was the forming of a Cit.izen's Advisory Committee to aid the board in long range development planning for the Mars Area Schools. The necessity of such a committee has been pointed by increasing school enrollments and building projects u the proposed middle school. Stated objectives of the committee are to encourage an understanding of the need for long-range planning, familiarize citizens with the educational system, utilize citizens as resource people for educational planning, and to ascertain attitudes and aspirations toward the future development of the Mars School District. The Citizen's Advisory Committee may find their aid most needed to advise, research, review, develop, recommend, add, de- lete, and originate suggestions in reports to the school board on long-range planning. 14 IN MEMORIUM In memorium to Raymond Nichols who passed away during the 1967 68 school term Mr Nichols was President of the Mars Area School Board and a mem ber of the board for the last five years He was also a board member of the Middlesex Township board Dur mg his presidency Mars Area School Board was nomi nated for the National Education Association School Board Award Contest for outstanding work in edu cation His untimely death was a severe shock to all who knew him and worked with him RAYMOND NICHOLS-JANUARY 17 1968 : A 'Wa V s .1 ' Citizeifs Advisory Committee Dr. Albert Manerino, Supervising Principal of Mars Area School District has been in the system since 1961. This year found Dr. Manerino grappling with large questions in addition to his already large list of duties and responsibilities. Such problems as increased faculty size, possible transition to computerized grading systems, developmental and procurement problems with the new Middle School, and reorganization of the school board after recent elections, were just a few to be worked out. Dr. Manerino has the responsibility of keeping the entire school system functioning smoothly, including elementary grades, as well as the junior-senior high school. Yearly he must recruit new teachers, prepare the budget, and participate in conventions and appear at speaking engagements. Dr. Manerino is assisted in his administrative duties by Mr. Hawkins, and board secretary Mr. Donald Owens. His position is one that requires much time and indeed is one that he must live constantly as do all dedicated educators. The yearbook believes Dr. Man- erino deserves credit for a job done well, and a job done with pride. .rsrf21g:e' . g W- i..Umaa,.,, DR.

Hawkins jr., in his second year as Director of Instructional Services, acted as administra- tive assistant to Dr. Albert Manerino and coordinated instructional services and school budgeting. His other duties include directing public relations and selecting and coordinating instructional materials. Last year was Mr. Hawkins final year as adviser to the Planet year- book. The 1968 Planet wishes to accord their gratitude for over a decade of service to the Planet by Mt. Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins received his undergraduate degree from Slippery Rock State College and obtained his masters degree at the University of Pittsburgh and Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Mr. Arno Thompson, in his second year as assistant principal of Mars Jr.-Sr. High School, added still other responsibilities to already lengthy list. His duties in- clude scheduling of student activities, student discipline, and teaching of classes in psychology. He is also Di- tectot of Athletics at Mars. Mr. Thompson received his Bachelor of Science at Geneva College, and his masters degree from the University of Pittsburgh. It is indeed doubtful that Mars would run so smooth- ly without the enormous amount of effort that Mr. Hawkins and Mt. Thompson have given to the school. Both aid the teachers and students in striving toward the goal of academic and athletic excellence.

Larson High School Primipal. Mr. John D. Larson, Principal of Mats Area jr.-Sr. High School, found 1968 a year of large and many faceted questions to be answered. In his second year as principal, Mr. Larson was confronted with such major issues as a change in the grading system, more flexible scheduling of courses, increased student enrollment and consequent increased teacher work load. He was also heavily involved in a pilot study for Butler County which was aimed at mapping plans as far as ten years into the future for Mars High. Too, and more happily, Mr. Larson had to schedule impromptu pep rallies for our exciting basketball team. Prior to coming to Mars Mr. Larson served as princi- pal of the Jersey Shore junior High School near Lock- haven, Pa. He attended Bucknell University, The Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, Penn State and the University of North Carolina. In addition to his more than full schedule, he holds the rank of Commander in the Naval Air Force Re- serves and was a member of an evaluation team for the Middle States Rating Association, 17 Math Department Gets Computer sv 44-tif '.

Plane and solid geometry introduce new concepts in two- and-three dimensional shapes, angles, and figures. College Algebra and Trigonometry present more advanced algebra and a basic knowledge of the circular functions. Pre-Calculus is a course for collegesbound students. It offers advanced work with vectors, analytic geometry, and proofs, as well as space geometry and trigonometry. 1 H W 74 6 .Q -. a Mr. Ronald McGrady 7:11 Grade Mall: Miss Mary Renison Mnlrix and Collage Algebra x ,f .neg ,WU 5 ,9 Q, ..r,M.1.., WORKING WITH THE digital rumpuler are C.

To those students who wish to follow the scientific or academic programs, it is essential. But today's housewife and mother needs a basic knowledge of science too. General science is a required course, covering basic fundamentals of all major sci- ences. This course keeps the student informed in this scientific age. Biology, concerned with the study of living things, is taught in the tenth grade. Dis- section of specimens added both interest and depth to the course. Physics is one of the basic physical sciences dealing with matter, energy, and their transformation. This course also helps students better understand natural occurances such as gravity, light, and matter. The second physical science, chemistry, explains the composition of matter. Lab ex- periments serve to verify theories taught in lectures. The held of science is intriguing, exciting, and open for new ideas and people.

It is an essential educa- tional factor, standing as one of the most interesting and intriguing of the curricular studies. To recapture the past history of our more recent ancestors' world, we go to Pennsylvania History and American History. Here the development of our gov- ernment, and our times of national depression and prosperity are studied in detail. World Cultures and Problems of Democracy reflect the years of the past, with a touch of the present in- cluded. Within the pages of their books lie the remains of past civilizations that once were a part of our earth. However, P.O.D. deals more with the past and present systems of government of these countries, especially the United States. Geography, too, is an area of social and historical importance. Our land, its natural resources, and its ability ro yield for the future are studied. Through Social Studies, we become more aware of the world in which we live. We learn how our ances- tors lived, understand better how our present genera- tion lives, and hope, perhaps, that how we will live in the future will overshadow the past and present.

Head Speech 7th Gnd: English English and Speech The basic foundations of the English language were firmly established by careful programs of study begin- ning in the seventh grade with a required reading course taught by Mt. Aley. Grammar rules, punctua- tion, and spelling in addition to literature were the backbone upon which the more advanced English courses could be based. In ninth grade the student was first confronted with the novel. His exposure was to Dickens' Great Expecta- tion: and after reading it, presented a short skit from the book. ' As a sophomore, students were required to take a semester each of speech and English. In speech class he progressed from the simple introduction speech to his final speech about a social problem. He tasted his first bittersweet Shakespeare by reading Julius Caerar. By the time the pupil was a junior, he was ready to be exposed to a more concentrated course: American Literature. He discovered the evils of a witch's curse in Home of tbe Seven Gabler, and the thrills of living on the Mississippi River with Mark Twain. To further enrich his background, the student could choose the humanities or composition course in senior English, which were aimed at the college-bound schol- ar. 21 Syl, 5, ff. P f ! if , .

The system employed at Mats High requests students to schedule their choice of a language in their freshman year. The three languages presently offered are French, Latin, and Spanish. French, now a more widely-spoken and predominant language, is a four-year study taught by Mrs. Adelaide McLaughlin, whom herself has traveled and studied in France. Her students organized and participated in various extracurricular activities in order to increase their knowledge and understanding of the French language. The Latin language is often referred to as the IN MRS.

Not only are her pupils taught the basics of Latin grammar and vocabu- lary, but they are also acquainted with ancient Roman culture and customs as well. Also olfered for four years is Spanish, taught by Mrs. Anne Ferguson. Again, in addition to learning to speak the language, students come to appreciate and understand the wealth of the Spanish culture. Mr. James Charlton, the Special Education teacher, works diligently and patiently with his students at all times, preparing them by various educational devices, for a better and brighter future. can be bumoarautr.

High Guidance Student Services Two of the most influential departments in the Mars High educational system are those operated by out li- brarians and counselors. The library services, under the direction of Mrs. Ruth Leicht and Mrs. Louise Benjamin, offer a wide range of instructional materials. The constantly ex- panding facilities of the library make it one of the best in the area. Here, many-a-student may be found doing research, reading a magazine, or concentrating on a novel. The senior high guidance department, headed by Mr. james Duerr, helps the upperclassmen with the all-important job of planning their post-high school education. Mr. Duerr also administers aptitude, intelli- gence, and achievement tests throughout the year, con- ducts interviews with each student, and directs schedul- ing. Mr. Gerald Dambach, junior high guidance counsel- or, manages the affairs of the younger students. He as- sists them with scheduling, aids them in discovering and developing their abilities, and presents talks to each individual grade on topics of interest to them. The services provided by these departments consti- tute a major part of a high school education. Without them, students would not be able to successfully evalu- ate themselves. For eflicient operation of our school system, the Student Services are invaluable. Mr. Dambacb and Mr, Duerr in the counxeling mite. 23 Distributive Education New My f -A wir.

General business, business arith- metic, and typing form the background for later, more difiicult subjects. In his junior year the future business leader may take business law, typing, bookkeeping, and shorthand. By the time he is a senior, the student is prepared for his step into the business world by ex- panding his skills in the subjects taken in his junior course and ollice practice, in which the student learns to use the mimeograph, the adding machine, and the electric typewriter. Worthy girls planning to be secre- taries are chosen by the instructors to work at local businesses, gaining valuable experience which they will use later. This year a new business course was added: distri- butive education. Taught by Mr. Skurcenski, the sub- ject included the basics of buying and selling and on- the-job experience. MR.

It also wishes to promote an interest in trade skills and perhaps stimu- late some students to enter various trade vocations. Plastic shop, headed by Mr. Keith Magness, pro- vides materials for the construction of useful objects such as pen holders, dishes, and lamps. The boys learn the art of heating and forming the treated substance for the basic projects. Mr. Paul Smith, director of another phase of the Industrial Arts, teaches the fundamentals of Mechani- cal drawing to the boys. Here mathematical skill and concentration are put to work. Mr. Smith also teaches Metal shop, encouraging projects with both sheet and bar metal. Mr. Adam Ryner teaches seventh grade students the basic procedures of working in the wood shop.

These courses are practical and are designed to aid students in both the present and the future. Under the supervision of Mr. Edmund Skacan, Driv- ers' Education students are given an opportunity to learn the operation of an automobile. This enables these students to experience, iirsr hand, actual driving conditions and prepares them for the day when they will be driving on their own. Many students obtain their drivers' licenses during this course and thus have the satisfaction of knowing that they have been taught to drive correctly and defensively. Home Economics is an invaluable course for todays' girls, for they will soon become the homemakers of tomorrow. Besides instruction in simple cooking and clothing construction, girls are taught the fundamentals of basic nutrition and family relationships. Mrs. Lois Best and Miss Carol Naptes are the instructors for this course, and take pride in the fact that they are helping to lay a solid foundation for the future lives of their students.

Ed., Health Play, Ed., Health Home and School Visitor Although many people think of high school as be- ing primarily educational, the physical education curri- culum is one of the most important phases. A well- developed body is essential for successful studying and for a long, healthy life. Health, taught in the eighth and twelfth grades, stresses this importance. Physical edu- cation puts it into practice. Discussions, visual aides, and classroom instruction is presented in health classes in an elfort to teach stu- dents why a healthy body is important, and how to go about developing and maintaining it. Miss Carol De- Venzio and Miss Marcia Semple teach girls' health, and Messrs. Christ and Barber instruct the boys. The physical education program aims to help stu- dents develop their neuromuscular coordination. Em- phasis is placed both on team sports, such as football and basketball, and pleasure sports such as volleyball and badminton. Supplementing these activities is work on the apparatus and outdoor exercise. WEIGHT LIFT ING WAS :tufted thi: year to enhance Icbeduled phyr. ed. artir'ilie.t.

Seniors The years 1962-1968 combined the first six years of a new high school building with the last six school years of the '68 graduating class. The opening of these new school doors signified the beginning of a future for every one of us who passed through them . . . signified the beginning of a past that would formulate throughout the years. It is a future and a past bound together by the strings of the present. It is: the transformation of simple into complex, the pride of having Eve finalists in the National Merit Scholastic Aptitude Test, the agonizing candy, pen, and sweatshirt sales, and last, but not least, the sale of the calendarsg ,it is the mud on our shoes and the frozen toes and fingers at football games, the crowded gym bleachers teaming with rousing supporters, the after-the- game sock hops and dances, the closeness of each indi- vidual senior as his last year draws to a close, it is the humorous misinterpretations formed after our first bout 82 with Macbeth and Hamlet, those honor assemblies that we almost dreaded because we hesitated at step- ping over the toes of the audience as we scrambled through the rows of seats and made our way to the stage for recognition, the silly fear that overcame us the minute we heard our name called over the loud-speaker, requesting our innocent presence at the office, the end- less plague of tests, reports, and oral speeches, the unabounding fervor on the day before a much-needed holiday vacation, the solemn beauty of the stalwart- gteen and silver Christmas tree that stood in the main hall during the Christmas season, it is the rising to an ultimate crescendo of educational excellence. So, as the doors close behind us for the last time, we leave with a sense of pride, responsibility, and most of all, a gladness tinged with the sorrow that all we can do is look back, turn around, and keep walking.

AFS Student I don'r think there is anyone in the world that would not like America, said Gerry Caiuby, this year's foreign exchange student from Brazil. You have been so helpful that it seemed like we were all old friends. America was a dream, a special dream that became reality. You helped it happen and I thank you very much. I am sure that past and future AFS students will agree with me in one point. If you don'r know Mars, you don't know the best in the United States. Come To An End!!! Last Years' Log In September the seniors entered school Thinking the year would really be cool. The seniors helped spark the football ream's While the senior play- Tom jones -was a dramatic highlight. fight In December, Humanity Class seniors went to an art exhibition And almost all the seniors complained of homework attrition. The basketball effort was sided by senior members And many wins will long be remembered. By spring, college plans were already laid Other seniors had job and service futures to be made. The Senior Prom Cat the Holiday Innj was lots of fun, Bacculareate, graduation, and all was done. -A SENIOR Ode to M. H. A senior leaves . . . N ot, strangely, with a feeling of exuberance, Or with a thrilling feeling of final freedom, But quietly, almost softly. He remembers . . . The little children that he finally grew up with, And played with, and thought with, and fought with And that special someone he could never quite figure out. Memories , . . Each so individual, yer somehow shared with his classmates, All that time he's spent here: Maybe this place isn't so bad after all. Tomorrow . . . Well, the future is bright, life will be full, But tomorrow is here so soon! The distant future has arrived a little early. Yes, maybe this place isn't so bad after all. ------f- ---- -W ---- --- --W - - W --H---H ,,- --,---. -- - .-.-...--.., -. ---v-.........-.. ...-.....,.,,. .,. ......,...,.., H. m,,,,,,,,,, 55 Junior Class Sells JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS-Bob Schleiden, Vice-Presidenrg Ron Gordon, Presidenc Carol Balfour, Secretaryg Andy McAuley, Treasurer. The class of '69 left a deep impression on all aspects of high school life as they concluded their final year as underclassmen. juniors proved themselves to possess enthusiasm and initiative as they expanded academi- cally and labored to prepare for the final year. Many juniors participated in the PSAT and SAT exarni- nations, while others brought recognition and honor to Mars as outstanding members of the athletic squads. The all important senior year looms larger and larger for these young people. As they enter that year they will realize that a new phase of life is beginning. As they step forward into the future, the training and education they experienced m juniors will enable them to face boldly the challenge of life in the future.

Confident and enthusiastic, the class of 1970 strode eagerly over the threshold from junior to senior high school. The sophomores got into full swing with the sale of blue and gold beanies and a Golden Oldies Dance held early in the year. Later, the annual sophomore candy sale was held. A great deal of experience was gained by these students as they participated in the National Educational Development Test and the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test. Many sophomore boys also were members of the junior varsity and the varsity athletic squads. This has been a year of expanding experiences for the class of 1970. The knowledge gained by these young people will provide a sound backing for their remaining years in high school and will help to guide their footsteps as they tread the unknown paths of the future.

Trefrey, prexidefzzg G. Basilone, vice prexidentq D, Taylor, recrcmryg D. Clark, treamrer. The freshman class may well be considered the transition between children and young adults. This was a year filled with many treasured moments, yet also a year which was more complicated both academi- cally and socially. In preparation for advanced senior high classes, they found Algebra I quite a variation from eighth grade mathematics, Pennsylvania History and Civics more specific than eighth grade history, and Biology I more challenging than the general science courses they had previously experienced. In addition, the ninth graders had a foreign language to study for the first time. More advanced teaching techniques were used by freshman teachers, and this class responded well. Many proved their scholastic abilities by taking the National Educational Development Test. In addition to the increased, intensified curricular activities, there was also an increasing and intensifying of extracurricular life. Many students participated regularly in clubs, some open to them for the first time as future senior high students. Freshman dances were more generally attended than ever before. Freshman players were the key people in junior high sports, and these athletes will be better team members in the future because of this experience. ' Truly, the great potential this class possesses will lead them to success in their high school careers.

Weller, lreaturer. A UNIQUE FEATURE of our cornerrlmxej fewerrilzle date. As the class of '72 began its second year at Mats, they looked forward to even more exciting experiences and new friends. This was the 'ear when academic goals were stressed and various courses of curricular study were offered. These included: scientific, academic, technical, commercial, and general. The students were also interviewed by the guidance counselor to aid them in planning their scholastic future. Although the academic side reigned in the fore- ground, the emotional development of the students became an important part of their life at Mars. The dances, the football and basketball games, the class parties, and the usual school activities were a vital part of the social whirl that evolved from their bright- eyed enthusiasm. Too, they could further their inter- ests by joining such clubs as Chorus, Orchestra, Art Club, and football. When the eighth graders look back in later years, they will remember all of the good times they had, recall their former achievements with pride, and hope for other years as wonderful as their second. With- out a doubt, they have every reason to expect success in their future years. The class of '72 has a star of the future and it is already starting to shine.

Schwan, rectyq R. Hurd, trearg D. Rizzo, vim pre.r.,' T. McMeekin, president. As novices, this ye:1r's seventh grade entered Mars High School to begin their first year of junior high. They experienced mental cultivation, physical and emotional development, and an atmosphere of budding maturity. They displayed sociability by holding various class-orientated activities, school spirit by attending and partic- ipating in school sports, and scholastic ability by scores from their IOWA tesrs. Clearly, this year's class was not one-sided in its endeavors and accomplishments. Whether they were cheer- ing loudly at a basketball game or intenrly raking a major test, they were proving their year to be a triumph Ken Anderson Joyce Baiuszik Earl Ballantine Bonnie Barber Frank Berk Dean Berkebile Robert Berkopec Susan Bisch Denise Boyle Robert Brooks Kevin Brunelle Aileen Buffone Carrie Charles James Charles Timothy Clark Paul Collins Robert Barr Michael Bastian john Bender Raymond Bitzer Bonnie Blair Debbie Bowers Jennifer Burford Lynn Burk Jennifer Caylor Terry Colonello Ruth Cook Phillip Cottone .29 ii ii- -ii 4, i fs if iffy L -:sg L, .. .I IQ W ' W 9 H oil: + is X Q .T 5-is i ow a , .era .- ii J if.

Student Council Sponsors Student Council The theme of this year's Senior High Student Council seemed to be Good Will. Proof of this was in their vigorous, heart-warming campaign for Bundle Day, a project to collect used clothing and send it to the needy in the Appalachians. Also, they sponsored the collection of money for the medical ship, Hope, No sooner had these projects been launched than the Council began a Leadership Training Program, intended to teach ollice- holding students the correct procedures for meetings and how to perform their duties more efficiently. Once more the Student Council brought student ser- vice to the school. They worked on a revision of their constitution, arranged to have buses to the away games, bought backing for the trophy case, helped maintain discipline at assemblies and pep rallies, and held a dance in March. To gain school recognition, a copy of the Planet Dust, the school newspaper, was sent to Pittsburgh disc jockey Jim Quinn. They also sponsored a contest for the drawing of a school emblem, At Christmastime the Council erected and decorated a Christmas tree to instill the Yuletide spirit. Under SENIOR EXECUTIVE couNc1L-B.

The color of the cards denoted what the book-1earner's grade average was. Blue signified a 3.0 to 3.35 pink, a 3.4 to 3.95 white, a 4.0. This type of recognition was given in an elfort to increase the scholastic interest of students. As an added feature of these assemblies, and as a means of acquainting the student body with the audio! visual equipment, several teachers demonstrated and explained the use of the computer, the projector, and the closed-circuit television. Students who continually maintained scholarship, char- acter, leadership, and service were accepted into the Society at its annual initiation assembly held in February. A tea for the parents and new members followed. The major money-raising project was the Society's sponsorship of the dance after the Sharpsburg basketball game. They also held a bake sale during the year. A service to the school was performed by the post- ing of current high school news events and clippings on the bulletin board in the main hall. The colorful me- lange of paper and letters greeted visitors as they entered the school, and drew proud glances from basketball players whose action shots were displayed.

The clubs themselves served the purpose of bringing to- gether students studying the same languages and pro- moting interest in foreign countries and their cultures. The French Club, open to all French students who have completed one semester of the language with a 2.5 average or better, was reorganized and active this year. The annual Fall Picnic, held in October, was a great success, as was the initiation-snow party held during the winter. Under the guidance of Mrs. Mc- Laughlin and President Larry Lahickey, the club learned additional material about France and the French lan- guage, as well as having a good time socially. Comprised of second-year Latin students, the Latin Club held its annual Roman Banquet. Dressed in the traditional Roman costumes, the students re-enacted a Roman wedding and gladitorial contest. In this way, club members were given an opportunity to discover and learn the many aspects of our Roman heritage in an enjoyable manner. Mernorizing a speech, dancing around a Mexican hat, and singing the Fray Felipe were only part of the agony the Spanish Club initiates underwent this year. One of the major activities of the year was the l Christmas party held at Holy Sepulcher School.

These are a few of the many qualities a capable teacher must possess. By taking an interest and participating in the Future Teachers of America Club, the members strove to lay a foundation for this prospective career. During National Education Week they decorated apples for the faculty and administration and served as guides for the school's annual open house. F.B.L.A. The Future Business Leaders of America's aim was to gain the experience and competence mandatory for the business field. ln preparation for their careers, they organized a successful holiday novelty sale at Chrisrmastime. Also, they hosted the first regional business convention of the F.B.L.A. to be held at Mars. F.B.L.A.-Firrt Row: S. Ball, I.. Stabile, B. lckenberg, J. Wassum, B. Weckerly, D. Berninger, D.

Holding a bake sale, selling necklaces, and spon- soring an after-the-game dance helped the club add to its treasury. These funds will someday enable a future group of club members to award a scholarship to a financially-deserving future nurse. Chess Club The game of chess has been played by thinkers for centuries. Many significant historical events have been influenced by the final checkmate. In keeping with this tradition, the Chess Club meets weekly under the direction of Mr. Alvin Murch- ison in an effort to help members learn or improve their game. Interschool tournaments with other high schools have been very successful and have served as inspirations to the entire club. CHESS CLUB-Fir!! Row: R. Hurd, G. Tisdale, F. Hammack, D. McWilliams, S.

The Planet staif worked diligently all year in an effort to achieve this goal. More work goes into a yearbook than the average student imagines. Each page must be laid out exactly as it will appear in print. Pictures must be taken, and the people in them must be identihed. Articles, head- lines, and captions must be written, Subscriptions to the book must be sold to students and advertisements must be sold to local businesses to offset printing costs. Thirty-four staff members, each with a specihc job, met frequently to help create the '68 Planet. The entire process of producing the yearbook was quarter- backed by Mr. Donald Ptinclet. This year's Fireburst theme is reflected in the cover, division pages, writeups, and page layouts. The staff was chosen in May of 1967 and immedi- ately began to gather ideas for this year's edition. Juniors and seniors combined their talents and experi- ences to try to make the Planet a success. Serving as a guide and incentive, the 1967 Planet received a first class rating from the National Scho- lastic Press Association. EDITORIAL STAFF-J. Hodge, assistant ed.g C, Robinson, editorg M. E.

This and other phrases were heard monthly when the Planer Dust went on sale. Under the leadership of editor jennifer Lawson and advisor Mrs. Schaffer, journalism students learned re- sponsibility. Co-editors Georgetta Curry and Gail Pen- ney assisted in the production of a fine newspaper. The Planer Dust staff was responsible for writing articles, whether they be news, features, editorials, or sports. Bur even more important than that was learn- ing to accept the responsibilities of meeting a dead- line and the process it requires: having the story proofread, typed on yellow paper, typed on white paper, and nnally having it sent to the printer for publication in the Butler County News-Record. Mr. Dick Srilley, sports writer for the Newt-Record, visited the journalism students monthly to offer criti- cal appraisals of articles and the Planet Dust in general. As an elective course, journalism taught students more than just how ro write a good story. The staff learned many things valuable to everyday life. Com- positions, term papers, and eventually doctorate dis- sertations will be easier for those students who have had journalistic experience such as that gained by working on the Planet Dust. Preparation in this field will be invaluable for those who may someday wish to become reporters or authors. u 1 U3 .' ul 'Uv un 'I - 1 I -F 'Y A ll I. n I L ' . ,Ill I .

Through in- formal discussions they expressed a.nd supported their opinions and views on current controversial subjects. Short skits, too, helped to provide an insight into dif- ferent world-wide situations. Each member left this club with a better under- standing of government, humanity and himself. r. H1 gh Att The many accomplishments by the members of the Art Club proved them to be very active this year. The money earned from a successful bake sale, sponsored by the club at the beginning of the year, was very helpful. They also participated in the annual open house at the school. By attending regularly scheduled meetings under the supervision of Mrs. Towle, their artistic talent became developed and improved. SR. HIGH ART CLUB-Fir!! Raw: B. Jones, N. Mathews, S. Geller, K.

These boys are always on hand to aid an inexperienced teacher or student focus, rewind, or operate the old and new equipment. The members of the Photography Club busied them- selves by brushing up on the latest techniques and putting them to use as they snapped many candid shots of student life. The work of the Photography Club was used extensively by many local newspapers, as well as the Planet Dust and the Planet Yearbook. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB-Fin! Row: T. Henderson, S. Wecketly, S. Kramer, J.

Busy with hammers, saws, and paint, they were on the set of Tom jones, working tediously to construct a tree on wheels, a London Bridge backrop, and door frames. Then came the faculty play, Dirty Work at the Crossroads, and an expert construction of railroad tracks, trees, and a house. Under the direction of Mr. Marlin Clay, the stage crew learned much more than just construction. Being able to maneuver curtains at showtime, dim the house- lights in accordance with music, and send out a tele- phone ring or a thump at the precise moment were just a few of the significant odd jobs carried out by each member. They had to be alert and aware of all backstage directions and cues, ready to go into action for a more smooth and well-timed presentation. Stage crew members of two or more years member- ship and good standing were eligible for admittance to the National Thespian Society, this was indeed an honor much deserved. Through hard work, determination, and responsibil- ity, the stage crew members have proven themselves time and time again. Even though their job is back- stage, they are nevertheless appreciated and recognized. THESPIANS-Firxt Roux W. Mitchell, G. Brooks, G. Bruce, R. Bale. Second Row: J. Little, V. Fisher, L. Roman, D.

They staged a delightful play at mid- year, entitled Circus in the XVind. To raise money for the Senior Banquet, they had monthly bake sales. Two initiations were held during the year, in Novem- ber and May, each member having been required to have ten points for admittance. AF Student stock and an auction were just two of the ideas the American Field Service Club used to raise money this year. The AFS Club sponsored an International Day and a United Nations Day which helped students learn about and understand their foreign neighbors. AFS hopes to not only continue the sponsorship of students visiting our area, but also to strengthen the friendship bonds between countries. AFS CLUB-First Rom: J. Lamb, C. Necse, P. Park, L.

They began preparation for the skiing sea- son by viewing movies pertinent to the subject and hearing discussions by experienced skiers. Dr. Kernes, director of the Butler County Ski Club, visited one of the meetings to discuss the sport in general and also the advantages of joining his organization. Later, Mars High decided to join. This automatically made them members of the Eastern Ski Club. The club went on a weekend excursion to Seven Springs where, while having fun, they could practice skiing abilities. Ski Club members enjoyed learning about the sport, and they are anxiously looking forward to par- ticipating with increased skill next winter. DECA Skill and knowledge are essentials to those con- templating entrance into the business world. The Dis- tributive Education Club of America, more commonly known as DECA, was formed this year for the purpose of expounding upon these requirements and thus edu- cating its members more thoroughly for their future careers. Under the direction of Mr. David Skurcenski, the club developed skills in advertising, budgeting, and other principles concerning business. During the hrs: year of study, the Distributive Education students complete bookwork that will pre- pare them for their second year as on-the-job trainees. Those holding the jobs are excused from their noon classes and work at designated places in the surround- ing area. In this way, acquired knowledge is applied, and invaluable experience is gained.

Senior Hi gh Chorus The Senior High Chorus started the year off with a spirited campaign to gain more interested and quali- fied members. After this demand had been met, the chorus set about improving the quality of their music. Many members of the chorus also became members of the Madrigal Choir, an organization which includes in its membership many high school teachers. At Thanksgiving the chorus, together with the Speech Department, presented a patriotic assembly. Then at the annual Christmas program they delighted their audience with many favorite carols from around the world. The highlight of their performance was that old-time favorite, jingle Bells, sung in several different languages. COUNTY CHORUS MEMBERS REHEARSE. Seafed: M. Freeland,N. Hager, D. Fiel. Standing' R.

With Partridge perched high on a stool at the edge of the stage, the story of Tom Jones, the senior class play directed by Mr. james Lutz, slowly unraveled. Through narration, Partridge related the three-act comedy to the audience as the characters came into being before their eyes. Tom jones, it seems, was brought up quite father- less, thus being an outcast in the snob society of the girl he loved, Miss Sophia Western. The other actors became involuntarily involved in Tom's quest for his beloved Sophia's hand. After much ado, however, he eventually wins the approval of Mr. Western, her father, the peahen spiriister aunt, Miss Western, and the entire cast. It is soon that Tom discovers that he isn't a foundling at all, but merely a child of mis- fortune. The play ends happily as Tom and Sophia are finally brought together in marriage. i Mr. and Mrr.

TEVYA IN COUNCIL at lbs table. The Junior Class of Mars High School presented the two-act play, Tevya and His Daughters, on the even- ings of March 7 and 8. Based on the Tevya stories of Sholorn Aleichem, the play revolved around the joys and heartaches of a poor jewish peasant family in czarist Russia at the turn of the century. The plot cen- tered on Tevya, the father of this family, and on the many trials and tribulations he undergoes in attempt- ing to arrange marriages for his daughters. But more than just relating a story, the play held a deeper mean- ing for those who witnessed it. The importance of a close-knit family, the continual striving of man to better himself, and the self-denial and courage of man as he fights for his freedom-these were only a few of the important concepts presented in this play. Although every member of the cast performed well, special laurels went to Randy and Judy Molinato for the tremendous warmth and vitality they displayed in their roles as Tevya and his wife.

Its members displayed their musical talents during half-time shows at football games with their precisioned marching routines and instrumental presentations. They learned basic drills and, with the addition of daily practices, strove to perfect their performances. Shows this season centered upon such themes as Tunes of Broadway, Patriotism, Tijuana Brass, and Roaring 20's. The band performed not only at half-time shows, but at many other events during the school year. Among these were the Junior Miss Parade in Butler and the Band Festival at Kiski. The senior band members, in return for their faith- ful spirit and contributions to the band, were honored at the Apollo football game, the last home game of the season. Adding to the holiday spirit, the band performed at the Christmas concert amidst falling snow and jingling bells. The year was terminated with a beau- tiful and impressive spring concert.

The field lights are dimmed, the band begins to play, and nine radiant girls display their talents be- fore the half-time crowd. The Mars High Majorettes, under the direction of head majorerte Debbie Hays, performed their twirl- ing routines with skill and coordination. Among the popular themes they performed to were: Ma.me, Taste of Honey, and Come, Josephine, in My Fly- ing Machine. At every pep rally, the student body was also given a preview of the evening's show, as the girls enacted their routines. Both Debbie Hays, head majorette, and Sally Fyke, feature majorette, attended Smith-Waldridge College for a two-week rwirling and dance routine course. They applied their newly-learned techniques as they devised new routines. Practice wzs a major necessity, and the girls prac- ticed diligently twice a week during football season. During basketball, the girls entertained the crowds at half-time. They also performed at the Buckwheat Supper held by the Masons at the high school. The Mars High Majorettes are made up of nine vivacious and dedicated girls-girls who embody the thrill, the excitement, and the spirit of the sport, the team, and the fans themselves.

Decorated with lol- lipop trees and colored roses, the cafeteria was sud- denly transformed into an enchanting danceroom for an entire evening. Upon arrival, the underclassmen attending received lollipops, and the senior girls received beautiful roses. Antionette Cottone, Drum Majorette, was crowned Football Queen by captain Don Dolin and co-captain Bob Flukas. Later in the year the girls held their first play day at Mars. This was a special day on which G.A.A. members from area schools participated in athletic events held in the Mars gym. On another occasion, several selected girls from Mars attended play days at Hampton and Knoch. G.A.A. girls caught the eyes of everyone when they donned their new blue and gold jackets. The name of each girl was sewn on the front left side of each jacket. In an effort to increase their funds for the G.A.A. Dance, the girls staged a bake sale during the first . part of the year.

The club, under the sponsorship of Miss Carol DeVenzio, started the year off by operating the concession stand at home football games. This activity was very important, as the money earned went toward helping to pay for Varsity sweaters. Boys Varsit The practices of good sportsmanship, team spirit, and participation in varsity athletics are the objectives of the Boys' Varsity Club. Projects this year included money making activities for the purchase of sweaters and letters. President of the club is senior Don Dolin, and vice president is junior Andy McAuley. - VARSITY CLUB-Kneeling: L. Anderson, D. Campbell, L. Wilson, D. Leonberg, D. Dolin, J. Knnuff, A. Murray, A.

These girls are the leaders of our school-they are the ones who are always out in front. Through the joyful tears of victory and the heartbreak of defeat, the cheerleaders never let us down. Their devotion was shown by their tremendous spirit, and by the instilling of this spirit in others. They strove for perfection by holding regular practices during the summer, and weekly practices during the school year. The cheerleaders are our ambassadors to other schools-they represent every student body member, and we can be proud of the hne example they set. Character, leadership, integrity, loyalty-these are the qualities of a cheerleader. Special is a very appropri- ate word to describe them.

The young, eager-toplease voices brought forth the strains of many a song at the traditional Christmas Assembly and Spring Concert. The group, directed by Mr. Ronald Bevan, accepted those students interested in developing their musical talents and in bringing pleasure to audiences as a result of this development. Many of them entered the organi- zation as seventh graders and remained so for the test of their junior high years. Upon becoming sophomores, they will be members of the Senior High Chorus. Next year, the addition of more male members is expected to increase the resonant quality of the chorus' music. Until then, however, it still remains a delightful asset ro our school. lx ORCHESTRA-C.

The Center defense was just too strong for Mars to break through at the critical moments. OAKMONT C39-7D lost, homeg Oakmont's defense and offense were more than the Planets could handle. Kiley scored the first touchdown of the season, a 10- yatd run around the right end, and also kicked the extra point. Dolin received knee and ankle injuries and was limited for the rest of the season. FREEPORT C48-65 lost, homey Freeport, the tough- est team the Planets had to face all season, had it all over Mars in every department. Gordon caught a Grey- nolds pass and scored the lone touchdown against the Yellow Jackets. WESTERN BEAVER C20-73 lost, awayg Again, the Planets had a chance to get their First victory, but couldn't capitalize on two chances to score. The turning point came in the third quarter, when one mistake seemed to lead to another. HAMPTON C46-125 lost, awayg The Mars offense showed improvement as the Planets scored the best against any of the teams so far. EAST DEER C26-135 won, home, Victory, although long awaited, was sweet. The team was at their best, and it seemed that everything they tried was exactly right. KNOCI-I C26-OJ lost, awayg Trying for a repeat per- formance of the East Deer game, the Planets were un- able to make a comeback after early fumbles allowed Knoch to take the lead. Playing on their home field, Knoch completely dominated the game. APOLLO C27-265 lost, home, The critical factors in this close game turned out to be two blocked extra point attempts, a defensive collapse in the second quar- ter, and a near-miss in Kiley's exciting attempt at a field goal with only seconds remaining. RICHLAND C40-65 lost, away, Mars couldn't stop their rivals, and powerful Richland took advantage of every mistake. The Mars defense, however, came up with several good defensive plays.

An Exciting End To Varsity Basketball There are many reasons for the Planets' successful season. The most obvious is natural ability. Each mem- ber of the team had to possess the coordination and latent skill necessary to compete in basketball. However, individual prowess is useless unless the team can work together. There is a world of difference between five players and a team. The Planets were able to work as a team, and thereby multiplied their strength many times. Another important factor this year was a strong bench. Players who spent a lot of time there were not looked upon as substitutes, but as team members also. They frequently added strong support when the start- ing players could not continue. School spirit was perhaps at its highest point in several years. The gym was filled to capacity several times, and even beyond in the case of the Knoch game. This school spirit was a big factor in keeping up team morale. One more reason for the success of the Planets this year was the excellent coaching staff. A great deal of credit goes to all the coaches, especially to Head Varsity Coach, Mr. Crist.

After being tied for second place last year, the Planets were in tight competition for the W.P.I.A.L. Section 16-B title for the whole season, and just missed participating in the Class B playoffs by losing a special playoff game to their chief rivals, the Knoch Knights. Seniors made up an important part of this winning team. Rex Hurd was second in the free throw and field goal departments, and was second in total points scored. Dave Kiley led the team percentage-wise in free throws, averaging 66.7 per cent. jim Knauff and Herb Kaufman added valuable bench strength and made the Planets, in general, a stronger and more versatile team. Unlike previous seasons, however, star players in- cluded many underclassmen. Special credit belongs to juniors John Sontag, Bob Flukas, and Dave Covert, as well as to sophomore Bill Cress and Mike Grubbs.

Both wins were scored against Richland High with the losses going to Seneca and Ford City. Of the ren letter- men, one was a senior, five were juniors, and four were sophomores. Senior Martin Norris was considered the stand-out member of the squad and was awarded the Most Outstanding Cross-Country Award at the Fall Athletic Banquet. Although still regarded as a relatively new sport at Mars, cross-country will continue to grow as the boys gain experience in the competition ahead. The team has high hopes for the future, as do all others at Mars. SUMMARY AND SCORES Mars 36 . . . . Seneca 19 Mars 35 . . Ford City 22 Mars 22 . . Richland 53 Mars 21 . . Richland 34 Mats 34 .
