Members of the Class of '52, the School Board of Snowden Township, individually and as representatives of the people of Snowden Town- ship, congratulates you on your successful com- pletion of the prescribed course of study in our school. Although there are many things that you learned which, in your opinion at the time, probably seemed useless, they all become, and are, a part of your reservoir of knowledge, which should, and we are sure will, make you a better citizen, a better neighbor, and a more tolerant person. During your twelve years in the public schools, you worked continuously, delving into the past, studying the histories of the various countries of this world, and particularly the his- tory of America. In your geographic studies you learned of the various cultures, trades, occupa- tions and customs existing throughout the world. Everything that we have today, whether it be a piece of line machinery, whether it be a special skill or knowledge, or whether it be the freedoms which we have long cherished but often 'take for granted, is definitely and clearly tied up and linked with the past, and, just as surely and inex- orably, you, individually and as a class, and your generation, will contribute and add to the future. The lessons of history are as important to us as a nation as our own individual past experi- ences are important to us as individuals in the development of our own trade, our learning, and our education. We can learn from the study of the past that 'throughout history people have made errors, that often times have been turbu- lent and the future looked dismal, and yet the world, and this country, not only survived such ordeals, but came from out of these dark periods better for the experience. We believe that We are at such a place in history now, that if you learn and keep in mind the lessons of the past, that the future will be brighter than it ever was. Again, congratulations and good luck! Dear Mr. Weaver: It has been a tradition for the Aquila to in- clude a letter from you to the Senior Class. Al- though dedicated to the graduates, they were eagerly read by the undergraduates as well. We had the opportunity to read three of your letters, and have obtained from them many gems of humble wisdom that have aided us in our growth as young citizens and students. This year we have decided to write you a letter. We know we shall disturb the sacred stream of tradition, but perhaps in its stead we can seed a new tra- dition, one through which the students can tell you, Mr. Weaver, of the fruitfulness of their experience with you. We have many things to thank you for, many little and big things that have all added up to a precious field of knowledge. VV e know that we shall use this knowledge all through life, and our lives will be more gracious and richer be- cause of it. We offer our first thanks here, a small thought compared to the many silent ones of the future. We want to thank you for listening to our problems and your willingness to aid us in find- ing their solution. You have helped us create an understanding of authority that we shall re- member as benevolent and democratic. VV e want February 21, 1952 to thank you for accepting our young, eager, brashness, and helping us to mould from it a more purposeful inquiring mind, one that is bet- ter prepared to cope with the world and its ad- versities. You told us to remember our duties, and to put them before our rights. We now know that our rights are only the rewards of our well- executed duties, a giving and receiving that is the fountainhead of our democracy. We shall be better citizens because of this, and both we and the world shall gain, for we shall be happy and useful members of our community. We shall remember, and carry with us, the warm glow of meaning you gave to the words of courage, perseverance, humility, faith and jus- tice. No longer empty words, now each one is an inseparable part of our character. Above all, Mr. Weaver, we wish to thank you for the many precious gifts that escape our awareness. They are the things that we have unconsciously assimilated through our associa- tion with you, the things that have made us successful seniors, but more, successful citizens. May God bless you, and keep you. Sincerely yours, The Senior Class of 1952 Intr d to Administratio Fa lty S 0 Class of ,52 Classes .... Act t Sp t ,..,,.,..

At first we were backward and afraid to mingle with the upper- classmen, but as the years went by we gained more confidence in ourselves and soon became closer to our Alma Mater. Freshies-Gee, but this new life was excitingl It seemed so strange to see all those new faces surrounding us and it took us quite a while to get into the swing of thingsv here at Snowden. VVe were honored by having the Y-Teens bestow a VVelcome Partyv upon us and make our goal to become Seniors seem closer to reach. Sophomores-After waiting quite a while to become Y-Teen and Hi-Y members, we were given our chance to join these clubs. On Y-Teen initiation day everyone here at school thought a group of convicts from VVestern Penn escaped because the school was surrounded by jailbirds. But they were wrong. It was only the girls becoming Y-Teen members. We also had quite a few new glamour girlsv parading around school, but everyone was surprised to find out they were really our Sophomore boys preparing to enter the I-Ii-Y Club. Both the boys and the girls went through some tough ordeals to enter the club but it was an experience no one will ever regret. juniors-Next came our junior year, one of the most eventful years in our school history. When We received our class rings we were very proud and happy, yet that reminded us that our high school days were coming to an end. Then after long days of preparation We presented our class play, K'House for Sale-Hauntedf' which proved to be a great success. Our biggest event was the Iunior-Senior Prom, Tulip Timef, It really resembled Holland with its live tulips, turning windmill, and little Dutch girls. This made a beautiful setting and the music of Tommy Carlyn completed the scene. Seniors-After completing our first three years of high school the day finally arrived for us to inherit the title of Seniors. From the beginning, our senior year was filled with many activities. Getting our pictures taken at White- hall Studios, selling Christmas cards, ordering our name cards and graduation invitations, yearbook write-ups, the Senior Class Play, The Able Miss Cainf' and many more activities led up to our Baccalaureate and Commencement Exer- cises. The last event which the Class of ,52 participated in was the trip to YVash- ington, D. C. So this has been the history of our high school days-a part of the past. Now we as Seniors must unlock the key to the future and open the door of op- portunity and adventure which faces us. The time has now come for us to lock the door of our school days, so the Class of 352 says Coodbyev to our dear Snowden High.

Hoping these items may be used to the best advantage, we leave the following: SECTION I TO OUR SCHOOL We leave to the memory of the school, the reputation of being the wealthiest, most success- ful, and ambitious class of any preceeding or following class of the said Alma Materf' SECTION II TO OUR CLASSES Item 1 To the Senior Class of 1953, we leave the big job of distributing and selling Christ- mas Cards and also our empty desks in the two most honored senior rooms. Item 2 We leave to the future juniors, our memories of the junior-Senior Prom and all the worries that go with the planning of it.

As we were driven toward our Alma Mater by the capable Bill Trover, we glanced out the bus windows and were amazed as we saw familiar names of the Class of ,52 in neon lights. There in front of our eyes in bold letters was Gorisek and Wisniski Beauty Salonf, Inside the shop were Rosemary and Dolores working on a society woman, Marian Kozak. In the next block was GriHith,s Mortuary with Harry Daugherty driving the ambulance out of the driveway, as Donna was Welcoming some guests. Smiling Jackf the used car salesman, seemed to be selling many cars when we passed. To our surprise he turned out to be our own Jack Cerar. We finally arrived safely. We entered the building and walked past the otlice. Working diligently on state reports were the Dean of Men Richard Cash- dollar and the Dean of Women Io Ann May. Bonnie Lou Dolan, their secretary, was trying to find the mistake that someone had made. Trudging up the corridors with their arms full of supplies were Frank O,Black, Elmer Nagy, and Fred Noakes. Freddie was carrying a small box of pencils and Elmer and Frank each had ten reams of paper. We walked past a few more rooms and entered the Students, Lounge. Whom do you think we saw? There was Mary Pope in a comfortable lounge chair with her head tilted back catching up on the sleep she missed the previous night. Weird sounds were coming from the auditorium. We decided to investi- gate. As we went in the door we were almost knocked over by the rushing florist, Phil Bowers, who was taking flowers to the operetta stars. When we followed him in We saw Verner Benzo pulling his hair out as he tried to get the orchestra in tune. Virginia Kuna, the pianist, was helping Sam Crumby and Betty Jane Atkins, the stars of the operetta, practice their scales. Nancy Neff gracefully per- formed her ballet solo, and then had her costume fitted by Amelia Kratofil, the seamstress, while Donnah Randall, the expert fashion designer, looked on with approval. On our way down to 'the cafeteria we saw Mary Popovich and Ioan Opfer- man in the Common's Room preparing their notes for next weekis debate, Pro- ceeding further on our little jaunt we heard Ambrose Blashich, one of the mem- 22 gfbldd., Pfwplmzq, bers of the swimming team, make a big splash as he tried to impress a cute little coed, Iune Anton. We sat down at one of the tables in the cafeteria and there was the editor of the annual, Marie Bretschneider, eating hurriedly so she could finish her udummyv copy. Betty Anne Trax tried desperately to eat and listen to all the gossip at the same time so that she would have enough news for her newspaper. The cafeteria was quite crowded but we did catch a glimpse of Iosie Butler and Mary jane Lomaga, two of the helpers, putting out more trays of food. We knew' we would enjoy our meal because the cashier, Helen Sokol, told us that Virginia Boff was a very good cook. After we finished our delicious meal we walked up to the second Hoor. There we saw a familiar face, Mary Jane Boyer, sorting and giving out a large amount of mail. We hadnit realized that we had spent so much time. We were almost late for the football game but with a little hurrying we got there in time for the kickoff. You never heard such peppy cheerleaders as Sonny Cusic, Rae Love, and Ralph Pust. Jim Cook, the scribe, was kept busy recording the touchdowns that were made by Rudy Dudukovich and Billy Houston. Everyone was hoping that Ted Hale and Hugh Todd, the newsmen at the game, would give the school a big write-up in tomorrowis newspaper. When we were walking around at half time we saw Ray Dobrowlski, the school's benefactor, talking with Melvin Castelli, Chairman of the Board of Di- rectors. Virginia Walchak, the sorority leader, was asking the commercial teach- er, Margaret Ann Wilson, to help her sorority sponsor a dance. Myrna Vaira, the coach of the girls, basketball team, was discussing the football game with Iohn Posego, the math professor. We hurried back to our seats as we heard Eddy LaPata, the sports an- nouncer, say that the second half was about to start, Dolores Deak,' the nurse, rushed out to the Hield with the capable physician, joe Cusic, as Russell Moore, one of the players, was seriously injured. As we left we heard the band playing the victory song and we knew the home team had won again.

This group will be the future 6'Big Wheelsv of Snowden, at least the under- classmen seem to think so. All year they tried to improve the conduct of the student body. That is something to be proud of. During this year they held as many money making activities as they could to obtain more money for the prom, the greatest social event of the year. Keep up the good Work, and make next year just as hig a success as this one has been. CLASS OFFICERS President ..,..,.., .,.... R osann Brandis Vice-President ...... .....

Al- though We think We should give them credit and also a Word of thanks for partici- papting in all the activities which were held this past year. By doing this, they helped to Win the favor of the upperclassmen. If they keep up the good Work as they have done this past year, We are sure that you will find them to be one of the most successful classes in our high school in the years to come.

The Y-Teen Club is an organization of girls ranging from tenth grade to twelfth grade. The Y-Teen Club is a part of the Y.W.C.A., a world- wide organization of women and girls of differ- ent ages, occupations, nationalities, races, and creeds. The purpose of the Y-Teens is to build a fellowship of girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common life those ideals of personal and social living to which we are committed by our faith as Christians. The members meet twice a month and plan many activties such as: the annual Y-Teen Christ- mas Dance, the fashion show and tea, and the annual Freshman Welcoine Party. Together the members seek to enrich their own lives and to do their share in building a better fellowship of girls, by growing as a per- son, by growing in friendship with people of all races, religons, and nationalities, and by grow- ing in the knowledge and love of God.

The members of this club make a trip to Pittsburgh each year to see some of the educational sites, such as, The University of Pittsburgh, Heinz Chapel, and Phippis Conservatory. The club is divided into two sections-the F.B.I, and the Biology Club. Two groups of officers are chosen, and each group has a different name, but they put thir ideas together to form one successful club. Mr. Cherney is the advisor of the club.

By keeping the students healthy, these three help keep up our good attend- ance record. Dr. MacBurney is glad to be of some assistance if you need a tooth pulled. He also conducts an annual check-up on the students' teeth. Before the students participate in any of the sports activities, they are first given a thorough examination by the doctor. Dr. Wilfong also makes an annual examination of the students, not only in the high school, but throughout the entire school district. Our nurse is a new element in this triple combination. When the dental and physical examinations are being given she is always there helping. During the day, she tries to divide her time equally between the two grade schools and our high school building. She is always ready to remedy your minor ailments, whether it be a small cut from conducting a chemistry experiment or just a headache from playing an exciting basketball game.

Sy A 5 if 12' 3 k..,, KIHM- pill!- After weeks of hard work preparing for the class play, 'The Able Miss Cainf it was present- ed on Decembercl3, in the high school auditor- ium. The action takes place at the Prescott home in Valleyview, a small midwestern town. Leaper Prescott Cookj is the Papa of the family, his fwife, Eleanor QM. Popovichj being the head of Phe house. They have two children-a son, Petey QF. O'Blackj who is interested in hyp- notism, and a daughter, Cheryl QB. A. Traxj who cannot decide whom to marry-led Lawford QA. Blashichl whose parents are poor farmers, or Alvie Van Ostade Posegoj who is very rich, although not as handsome as Jed. They have a niece, Mary Io Iennings QM. Vairal living with them, who is made to help Mamie Magoon QI. A. Mayj the dumb maid. Leaper has a rich aunt, Miss Molly Cain QV. Kuna? andllearns that she is worth a hundred grand, and is visiting each of her nephews to find out which one to leave her money to. When Eleanor learns about this, she decided to turn poverty stricken for Miss Cainis benefit. No one heard of her plan until she told Miss Gussie Smoot QD. Wisniskij her nosey neighbor about it. Then Gussie spread the gossip around town. To make her plan more effective, she rented a room to Mrs. Pilsbury Livermore QV. Boffj relic of the late Pilsbury Livermore. She is an old woman who is constantly complaining and needs to be waited on. Unfortunately, Alvie and his mother, Orpha Van Ostade QM. Bretschneiderj come to pay Eleanor a visit at this time, and seeing their condition, will have nothing more to do with the Prescotts, leaving Cheryl with only Ied left to marry. She tried to get him but didn't succeed. Meanwhile, Mrs. Prescottis new Paris hat and Cherylis mink coat arrive While Aunt Molly is at the Prescott home. So, trying to help mat- ters, Petey hypnotizes all three of them-Mrs. Livermore, Izzie Finklestein QE. LaPataD who delivered the fur coat, and Madam Fifi QR. Cori- sekj who brought Mrs. Prescottis Paris hat. The Prescotts were surprised when they found out that their plan had back-fired. Things soon turned out for the better. Mary Io and Jed became engaged, and Miss Cain gave her the mink coat as a wedding gift, and kept the hat for herself. Leaper, being the most able of the three nephews to handle the money, was prom- ised the rest of Miss Cainis fortune, providing he became the head of the house. The play proved to be very interesting and was enjoyed by all who attended.

Jnni6a.lL Haaulbi, BRENTWOOD On the opening game the inexperienced Eagles witnessed their first loss at the hands of the Brentwood Bulldogs. It was a hard and cleanly fought game, Brentwood proving to be the better team. In the final quarter Snowden went to the airlanes and scored on a pass from Kurtak to Dudukovich. The final score was 39-6. BETHEL Snowden met their second game with their traditional rivals, but they found the Bethel Bears a bigger and more experienced team. Snowdenis lone score was made by West who received a pass from Haenig and galloped the remaining sixty yards. The final score was 31-6. BENTLEYVILLE Snowden broke their losing streak by up- setting the three game winning streak of the Bentleyville Bears at their home Held with a score of 13-0. On two lifty yard gallops, West scored with Moore converting. Snowden scored a grand total of 395 yards from the line of scrim- mage. ST. LUKE The Snowden Eagles in their first home afternoon game of the season, found themselves meeting the very evenly matched St. Luke team. Snowden gained more yardage from the line of scrimmage than St. Luke, although the score ended in a I4-I4 tie. Spencer scored both touch- downs, one a 69 yard gallop, with Moore con- verting after both touchdowns. SOUTH FAYETTE The Snowden Eleven on their second after- noon home game met the South Fayette team in a well matched game. Neither team was able to score, although the South Fayette team was a much larger team. CECIL Snowden met the Cecil team on Bridgeville's Held. Snowden was the victor by one touchdown which was made late in the second quarter by Spencer on a 60 yard sprint. The final score was 6-0. BRIDGEVILLE Snowden played their Hnal afternoon home game on a very wet and cold day. The Bridge- ville team proved to be too much for the smaller Snowden Eagles, although Spencer with the help of his lighting team mates, drove over for Snowdenis score with Moore converting.

It has also taught them that good sportsmanship plays a part in every personis life. The Junior and Senior Varsity is selected from the members of this club. The C. A. A. has annually sponsored the Boys' Athletic Banquet and begin- ning last year, they helped to buy jackets for the senior boys who participated in either football or basketball games. They also buy basketball uniforms for the girls' team. These activities have taught the girls how to work together and have also made the club an interesting one. With willing workers who are always busy, this club is sure to be a successful one in years to follow.

The final score was 44-15, a loss for Snowden. The team also lost their next two games. This didn't discourage the team or their coach, Miss Emily Miller. They were always out there doing their best. Then the tables turned. The next three games were all victories for Snowden. The team will lose two of their best players when Myrna Vaira, the captain, and Donna Griffith graduate.

From the Senior Class you can hear the yells and cries of Myrna Vaira and Iune Anton. Representing the Iunior Class we have Mary Cleary and Rosann Brandis to help the boys along. The Sophomores also have two encouraging cheerleaders who are Diane Schmitt and Eleanor Blythe. Doing a good job for the Freshman Class is Mary Lou Patellos, a newcomer to the group. Last but not least is cute little Betty Lou Moore who we hope will continue to do as good a job as she has done in the past. June Anton, one of our very able Seniors, was elected captain by the girls. Iune has proved very worthy of her position. The uniforms that we wore this year were all new. We wore white sweaters with an eight inch blue letter on them. Our circular skirts were made of blue wool, lined with white satin. Miss Deets, our home economics teacher, did a fine job on them. Our cheerleaders really did a grand job by encouraging our team through all their basketball and football games, whether they were losing or winning.
