IJII-'HIE-IIIDII FOR 1939 SPONSORED BY STUDENT COUNCIL BROWNSVILLE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL BROWNSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA WE DEDICATE ln his Swan Song to Brownsville, after resigning his position, Mr. Williams said, One never realizes just how many things in the life of a community play important parts in his life until the time comes to leave them. For the first time since I was five years of age I will be 'out of school'-l will not be able to look forward to a blue Monday in the classroom. Things I will miss most:-improbable but highly original excuses from provocative students, surprised parents who learn for the first time of Johnny's or Lizzie's attendance at a funeral, the friendly aid of my fellow teachers, pleasant relations with the athletics committee and just dozens of other things. To one whose subtle puns and good nature made him popular with the students, to one who not only revived but also made possible the continuance of a yearbook, we the class of 1939 humbly dedicate this volume of On-the- Mon to J. Park Williams, our sincere friend and ardent supporter. Other than friendships and knowledge acquired in classrooms, our graduating students too often leave their Alma Mater carrying nothing with them except beautifully vague memories. lt has been the consuming desire of the On-the-Mon staff to create for you a volume containing in words and pictures the life of Brownsville Senior High School during the year l938-l939. . . a memento to be cherished among your souvenirs from year to year so that in the future you shall always have something more than intangible memories.

CLEMMER lt is to the above group of Brownsville citizens that we owe the existence and maintenance of a successful Brownsville High School. The officers and committees have always merited the praise and respect of every member of B. H. S., for theirs is a good job well done. . The group whose task it has been to solve the financial problems of the school district is composed of Martin W. Claybaugh, chairman, Howard B. Johnston, vice-chairman, H. O. Hornbake, and Dr. C. R. Graham. The Athletic Committee is close to the hearts of every student of B. H. S. since it is this group that has made possible the consummation of our fondest dreams-a new athletic field. This committee can also claim part of the credit for the successful football campaign conducted this year, since it was because of the fine cooperation received from this committee that the boys were well equipped. This committee consists of H. O. Hornbake, chairman, C. L. Clemmer, vice-chairman, Martin W. Claybaugh, and Willard A. Griffin. lt is the task of the Educational Committee of the board to select teachers for the schools in the district. This group receives and considers applications for all teaching positions. Mrs. Anne Strawn, chairman, Willard A. Griffin, vice-chairman, H. O. Hornbake, H. B. Johnston and C. L. Clemmer comprise this committee. The Building and Grounds Committee undertakes all school repairs. lt consists of C. L. Clemmer, chairman, Mrs. Anne Strawn, vice-chairman, Dr. C. R. Graham and H. B. Johnston. The youngest committee, the Tuition Students' Committee, functions with the townships which send students here and solves all problems arising therefrom. Dr. C. R. Graham, chairman, Mrs. Anne Strawn, vice-chairman, and E. L. Clemmer comprise this group. For their unfailing devotion to the cause of education, despite its many problems and never ending duties, we wish to express our heart-felt gratitude and appreciation for the good school which their labors have maintained for us. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION 8 Over the Public THE ADMINISTRATION We honor our Principal, Mr. Robert E. Austin. His friendly attitude, and his cheerful smile have won him many friends among the students, faculty and townspeople. He has given his full support in all the activities of the school and through his cooperation and understanding of our school problems much has been accomplished during this past term. Mr. Austin attended Glen Falls High School. He received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Saint Lawrence University at New York and a Master of Arts Degree from the University of Pittsburgh. His first teaching position was at North Union Township. There, from l92l to l922, he taught French and Science. From i922 to i926 he taught Biology and General Science at Uniontown High School. During the next four years he taught Physics, Chemistry, Biology and General Science in Redstone High School. ln l93l he took up his duties as Principal of South Brownsville High School. During l933 he was Supervising principal of the South Brownsville Borough Schools. Since the consolidation of the two Boroughs in l934, he has held the position of Principal of Senior High School. Under his administration the curricula have been changed and enlarged, many new and worthwhile courses have been added. The students may choose from these which will be best to fill their individual needs and abilities. New sports and extra curricular activities have been introduced offering a wide variety of hobbies to fit the many interests of the student body. Through his interest and supervision, he has built an institution well worth praise. PRINCIPAL R.. E.

H, S. There are twenty-eight members-one from each home room. The officers are: Sponsor, Miss Jean Donaheyz President, Mildred Weston: Vice-President, Mary Keck: Secretary, Louise Rose, and Treasurer, Fred Masterson. In addition to issuing club charters and arranging a social and activities calendar the council granted the candy sale concessions and noon dancing to deserving organizations as the means of earning enough funds to carry on their work. Other work of the council included Boys Patrol, Hall Patrol, Clean-up Week, and the Letter Awards for most out- standing students in extra curricular activities. A New Budget plan to be inaugurated next year was worked out by the group. Some home rooms put the plan into effect this year with success but it was not compulsory for any group to accept the plan this year. Five gold keys were awarded to senior students who had served in council for three years. Eight silver keys were awarded for two year membership, and fourteen bronze keys were given to those who were serving their first year. The biggest job of the year was the sponsoring of the 1939 On-the-Mon . Forty senior students were awarded the big Blue and White B for out- standing work in the numerous clubs and organiza- tions of the school, The council Daid for these letters out of funds collected by taxing each organization 5522 of the profits earned in their various activities.

CLASS OFFICERS MEMOIRS OF THE SENIORS Like swift swallows through the clearest air have flown the days of our past twelve years. At times they may have been clouded and gray, but now that the flight is nearly completed, even the difficult days are happy memories. Our youth is not over, but a chapter in it has closed irrefutably and finally. As we look back, we see a broad and beautiful panorama. Our class was molded from the many towns and townships near Browns- ville. We have all been cast together to comprise a class of 3l O students, a class which we feel has contributed its share in adding to the prestige ot Brownsville High School. ln the autumn of i936 about 4OO strong, we came trudging for ridingl up High Street to do or die for Brownsville High. Boldly we entered the now familiar front door, not confessing that our hearts were quaking in awe of the newness and strangeness of this great institution. We found some difficulty in getting accustomed to what then seemed a complicated maze of doors, halls, and stoirways. We were mere sophomores, but we knew that some day we would be juniors and seniors. So, undaunted by the condescending looks of our upperclassmen, we proceeded to make ourselves a very firm fixture in the machinery of school life. We practically invaded the clubs like an army of new recruits thirsting for the glory and excitement of extra curricular activities. We showed the rest of the student body that we could maintain our share of scholars on the honor roll. We showed the faculty that we were ready to make our alma mater' proud of us. When the spring of l937 rolled around, we had been assim- ilated. We had adjusted ourselves to the once-foreign customs of our school. We took advantage of that summer vacation to refresh our spirits. The battle of capturing the title of Senior Class was just one year closer, and we prepared for the march. The autumn of i937 found us entering the now-loved halls of B. H. S. We sympathetically looked down upon the sophomores. We knew the in- feriority they must feel. We were now upperclassmen, We took over a number of executive positions in the clubs. We were now among the leaders. For the lovers of terpsichore, we held a Junior Prom at which about IOO couples showed their jitterbug tendencies, dancing to the majestic melodies of Art Giles. For the lovers of drama we presented China Boy , our class play. By May we had enjoyed as full a year as it has been the pleasure of any junior class to have in the history of our school. For the last time we started a new school year that September in 1938. We were now the high and mighty seniors. Our Senior Class Play, Growing Pains, was a great success. We were, as usual, very active in all the school clubs, and as this yearbook goes to the press, we are looking forward to ci gala Senior Prom and an enjoyable Class Day. SENIOR SPONSORS Nicholas. That, in a nutshell, is the record of our Senior Class. ln these few words the historian has not been able to say just how happy and important that history has been. High school life is youth at its gayest, youth at its maximum of ability to absorb learning. We have won the first battle in a hard struggle that took us twelve years. Now we face a greater battle. We must make for ourselves from the ingredients we have thus far received a life of ambition, work, and accomplishment. Perhaps in fifty years or so, we shall say out post-high school days too have flown like the swift swallows just as did the high school days. We hope that we shall be able to say that they have been just as fruitful and just as hoppy- There was no politics in the election of senior class officers. The ballot- ing was as usual a poll to find the students most capable of filling the duties of class officers. Their election was more or less a sign of their great popularity among members of the class. Chuck Sutton, our most popular senior, was reelected president of the class. Mary Keck, of the cheery disposition and spontaneous laughter, was chosen vice-president. Scholarly Jack Davidson was selected scribe for the class of '39. The great confidence of our class in Patty Fitzgerald was again shown when we reelected her treasurer. We were also honored with nine capable class sponsors: Mr. Aschman, who can not only bring the best out of a boy on the football field, but can also bring out the best of boys and girls in the classroom, Miss Piersel, who skillfully manages our library, and makes her classes both interesting and educational, Mr. Walker, who is head of our commercial department and head of our N. F. L., Miss Yealy, whose expertly directed choruses and vocal soloists brought glory to our school, Mr. Jacobs, who is a fine math instructor, Mr. Lessner, whose excellent lectures supplemented his fine trig and geometry classes, Miss Nicholas, who is quite an expert in speech matters, Mr. J. Coldren, whose course in P. O. D. is probably the most sought and interesting in this district, and Miss Grossman, our newspaper sponsor and authority on English. With such fine leaders and sponsors, the seniors were destined to be o successful class. There is hardly a club or activity in the school in which the seniors were not active. It is indeed with heavy hearts that the class of '39 shall leave B. H. S. To the Juniors and Sophomores is bequeathed the duty of upholding the traditions of our school.

THE SENIORS EXPERIENCE GROWING PAINS The best play since The Scarecrow Creeps, How true to life! The acting and direction were almost professional. A play everyone should see. These were the pleased comments of those parents who wit- nessed probably one of the best plays ever presented by Brownsville High School- Grow- ing Pains, our Senior Class Play. For the first time in many years, we had packed houses at both our presentations. The selec- tion of the play, the cast and the stagecrew was indeed fortunate. Maybe it was because Growing Pains was the life of every high school boy and girl. Maybe it was because the parents found the characters in the play were having exactly the some troubles their own children were having. Maybe the actors and actresses were able to act more natural in these parts. Who can forget Mildred Weston's pur- suance of Bobby Elder? Bette Keffer's sophis- ticated vamping of Dusey and the rest of the boys? The perfect parenthood of Meta McAndrews and Ralph Thompson? Paul Chamberlain's trouserless meanderings? Paul's tin lizzie ? Chuck Sutton as traffic cop? Everyone will certainly agree that Growing Pains was worthy of the class of '39 Pictures reading from top to bottom, back- stage crew, George's trousers, the ushers, George Mclntyre, how could you! FAREWELL DEAR SENIORS 36 WINNERS OF THE JUNIOR CLASS POPULARITY POLL The Juniors, as they usually succeed in doing, again came into glory in the Popularity Poll sponsored by the Brownie Herald Staff this year. Fourteen titles, seven male, seven female, were garnered by these yo u n g geniuses. Leading the Juniors, as always, Carl Hough, our class president, received the pomp and glory going with the accumulation of four titles. Having viewed his talents in several of the Thespian plays, the art-appre- ciative Juniors voted him as the best all- around boy , the boy most likely to succeed , the boy with the most personality , and the best citizen of the Junior Class . These honors were bestowed upon him because of the extent of his activities, his amiability, and his ever-present humor. Another prominent Junior, Betty Elder, was honored with two titles-the girl with the most personality and the most popuIar girl . She is very deserving of these honors and everything which these titles take in describe her to you. Two other Juniors, Leon- ard Garofalo and Betty Goldstein, also finished with more than one title, each taking as his own property sole ownership of two titles. Leonard was chosen the best looking boy and the most popular boy and Betty was crowned the best all-around girl and the best Junior girl citizen . The remainder of the victors procured one title to cherish to their dying day. Harry Dunbar was chosen the best dressed boy and Mary Catherine Storer was picked as the best dressed girl by the illustrious members of this class. Minerva Romito, the scholar of the class, received the title of the girI most likely to succeed . So the Juniors selected their most popular members of the year in what proved to be one of the most successful polls ever to be con- cguc-gecg in the annals of the history of old HAIL JUNIORS 37 Room 210 Room 301 Room 303 Room 302 ROOM 210-President, Robert Lrowng Vice-President, Harry Dunbar: Secretary, Jerry Birkenfeld: Treasurer.

It seems a long time ago, perhaps even before the setting out of Columbus across the briny depths, before the days of piracy, before our Fathers made their pilgrimage to the New World, before the day that Captain John Smith almost had his coiffure done, not in the present upswept mode, but in a manner definitely ala Indian, that the present Junior Class entered the portals of Brownsville Senior Hi, for the furtherance of their education. Immediately at the beginning of the Sophomore year, these brilliant young students betook themselves, besides presenting an almost perfect Honor Roll for the enraptured upperclassmen to wonder at, to joining the. various orgaizations of the school. Of course when these young lights got down to business, the older dignitaries were forced to yield that we were, as you might say in the vernacular, the nuts . Moreover our presence in the clubs brightened their activities and there was a constant clamor for membership. Thus in like manner, conducting the school life, we passed our initial year, raising funds for the trivialities surrounding us by sponsoring that rendezvous of jitterbugs, noon dancing. Thus in our inexperienced younger days we spent the time ever happy and gay, frolicking about, flitting thru the various classes, innocent of the world of work opening upon us. Now in the Junior year, we of the former Sophomore Class have not ceased our wonderful activities, but besides them have extended an aiding hand to the mob arriving from Junior Hi, the Sophomores. This is signifi- cant because it is beneath our dignity to even note these youngsters about us. Our prom did not materialize. However, looking forward under the able direction of the drama teachers, we shall present the annual Junior Class Play, and with the combination of the coaches and the portrayal of the actors, we will unleash a vehicle upon the unsuspecting public that will startle them into amazed realization of our talents. At the beginning of the term, the Class elected their officers for the term. They have thus far proved their abilities and they will continue to do sc. For the Presidency of this distinguished group, Carl Hough, a hometown boy, was chosen and he has served the class with distinction in the executive duties. In the business of selecting a vice-president, our supple minds selected Michael Fedutes, the flashy halfback from Newell. When the time yawned for the selection of someone to serve us in our extensive secretarial duties, we of course elected Leota Artis, who served in the same capacity last year. Then the all-important job of treasurer loomed, and Fred Masterson ably assumed his duties. THE JUNIOR CLASS SOPHOMORE CLASS OF '41 On September 4, of this year we turned from the by-path of the Junior High School which we had traveled as the only way to get from the low road of elementary education to the new highway that leads us to higher education. Four hundred and fifty strong we have marched along this new road with increasingly firmer tread as we have become accustomed to its broader expanses and freer range of choice of fields in which to romp and explore. On the distant hill-top stands the Cathedral of Learning which some of our pilgrims aspire to reach and conquer. Others of our number will find the trunk lines and fields of home, business, transportation, and social service much more attractive when we reach the commencement cross-roads in 1941.

The Hall of Fame is an institution to bestow honor upon people for their contributions to mankind. Famous people such as Washington, Lincoln, and Webster have received these honors. But what have these people got that our Sophomores have not got? Therefore we bestow upon the Sophomores, honor and recognition for their activities. After diligent tabulating, the results of the recent popularity poll was revealed. Special honor and recognition should be given to a sophomore girl who has succeeded in capturing five divisions in this popularity poll for con- tributions of time, leadership, and initiative qualities. Therefore we congratulate Shirley Mitchell for her abilities of perseverance and leadership. She has been voted as being the best all-around girl , girl with most Der- sonality , most popular girl , girl most likely to succeed , and best girl citizen . Dolores Murphy has been chosen as the best looking girl . Shirley Bockes received the honor of the best dressed girl . Leonard Ackerman was named boy with most personality . and best all-around boy . Alexander Sherrard was chosen best dressed boy and boy most likely to succeed : Junior Peters as best boy citizen : Paul Buck Sutton as 'tmost popular boy , and Fred Kreuter as the 'tmost hand- some boy. Honors should also be given to some of our Sophomore students for outstanding forensic work, Marilyn Meckling has shown distinction by being a first-place winner in poetry and humorous readings, Junior Peters has ranked first in tournaments for his ability in deliver- ing original orations and humorous readings. Shirley Mitchell is also outstanding in this field as a humorous reader. 44 THREE DUB I1!3'I'lVl'IlES 45 Bums , 13 CANDID REVIEWS THE HIGH Top Row lleft to rightl-Our high-stepping majorettes march on, Angeline, Marian and the two Betty's . . .

The thirty-five members have worked diligently this past term and although they did not enter into the County competition, they plan to play at the Music Festival. This is among the oldest organizations in the school. Through the orchestra many students have learned to appreciate good music. Orchestral work is an excellent source of training since it develops an avocation for the musicians who can turn it into a vocation in later life, if they so desire. Our instrumental soloists are all members of the orchestra. They are William Edwards, clarinet, Alfred Laponsky, baritone horn, Velda Hartman, bass clarinet, and Samuel Silver, bassoonist. Paul Broadwell, trombone, Melvin Kurtz, saxophone, John Phillips, bass fiddle, Karl Kendall, cello, Norman Alvaro, flute, Howard Fulton, French horn, Frances Swan, viola, Horace Johns, trumpet, Paul Gianetti, oboe, Bernard Franko, tuba, and Robert Jameson, clarinet. These students have practiced diligently after school and at home and their efforts have been well rewarded for some have taken first honors at County. The Fourth Annual AlleWestern Spring Band Festival sponsored by Pennsylvania School Music Association was held in Connellsville this year. The concert featured a band of two hundred and twenty outstanding instru- mental musicians from sixty Western Pennsylvania High Schools. Those Representing B. H. S. were William Edwards, Alfred Laponsky, Velda Hart- man and Samuel Silver. THE BAND The Band can take their full share of credit for the good attendance at football games this last season. Nattily dressed in their blue and white uniforms, going through their various formations with ease, and led by baton-twirling Betty Rice, Angeline Rose, Marion Brown and Betty Jane Graet, they inevitably brought enthusiastic cheers from the spectators. But these marching musicians were'nt heard only on the gridiron. They also participated in numerous parades and in two marching contests. The latter were held at Connellsville where they won second prize of twenty-five dollars and at Uniontown where they won first prize of twenty-five dollars. Among the parades they participated in were those held on Armistice Day, and l-laIlowe'en and during Victory Week when they paraded before ex- Governor Earle. Probably the most notable of the band's accomplishments was its winning of the Fayette County contest, last year, for the first timei in the history of our school. All of these achievements take much practice, To Mr. Carson goes the heart-felt thanks of the student body and patrons for it is he who has built up the band to the great organization it is now. Under his supervision the band members meet every Monday evening and every day seventh period when they practice their marches and contest numbers.

SMALL VOCAL GROUPS The vocalists are quite popular with the local clubs and church enter- tainment committees. They have a pleasing repertoire and are always will- ing to cooperate. This is the third year the mixed double quartet and the girls' ensemble have won the first place in the Fayette County contest. This year a mixed quartet was inaugurated along with a revival of the girls trio. The vocal soloists Paul Chamberlain, Charles Burrell, Dorothy White and Evelyn John have worked hard. THE GIRLS' CHORUS The Girls' Chorus, under the direction of Miss Yealy, has been enlarged this year to a capacity size. Having l2O members, it was divided into a first and second chorus. The girls were given tests to determine who would be in the first chorus and travel to the Fayette County tournament. ln the past this musical group has not had any competition at these contests, but this year they have practiced intensively, hoping to be able to attend the district contest. Their accompanist is Elaine Porter. THE BOYS' CHORUS We heard it said that the weaker sex are the greatest talkers, but its period two in IO5 and it's the thirty-five boys in the chorus that do more talk- ing and gossiping than all the one hundred and twenty girls in periods l and 3. These great conversationalists have proved that they can sing just as well as they can talk and under the direction of Miss Yealy they have done good work this year. With the girls, they sang in a mixed chorus at baccalaureate, graduation ceremonies and at the annual music contest. They had no competition at the Fayette County Contest. THE HI-Y The Tri-Hi-Y, under the sponsorship of Miss Goe, has accomplished much in the last year. For one of their projects, the club sold name cards to the seniors. The proceeds from this sale enables the Tri-Hi-Y to send one or more of its members to the Tri-Hi-Y camp this coming summer. The club also sponsored dances, bake-sales and gave Christmas baskets to the poor. Eight weeks ofthe club's time are devoted to Bible study. The girls meet every Thursday and have two social gatherings a month. There are approxi- mately 43 membersin the club. THE TRI-HI-Y The aim of the Hi-Y is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. Our l-li-Y boys, under the sponsorship of Mr. Gibson have lived up to this aim. This year they have held Clean Speech Week, a Go-to-Church Campaign and a Necktie Campaign. They also had a scavenger hunt with the Home Econ- omics girls, a dance with their Tri-Hi-Y sisters and participated in a Hi-Y basketball tournament. The club meets every Monday evening at which time they have a prominent Brownsville citizen as their guest speaker. l Undergraduate Thespians Senior Thespian OUR GABLES AND LAMARRS The Thespian Club, with Miss Donahey and Miss Grossman as sponsors, has had one of its most active years since it first organized in l932. The members gather every Tuesday and alternate evening and afternoon meet- ings. The afternoon meetings are devoted to business while those in the evening are soc'al at which time one-act plays are usually presented. The Thespians' first presentation, this year, was three one-act plays, The Valiant , The Winner , and The Reefer Man . Shortly after this presentation, the club journeyed to California where the California State Teachers College was host to eight schools from the district. While there, The Winner was again presented as were other plays by the different schools. ln order to give more students a chance to become members, one-act plays, directed by Thespians were presented at the meetings. Through these plays, and plays given at public performances, nineteen members were initiated at two initiation ceremonies. Later in the year, the club presented Nothing But the Truth, for high school and patron audiences. They also presented it at a celebration of National Drama Week. The club had invited twelve schools to be their guests and four of them: Perryopolis, California, East Pike Run, and Red- stone, accepted the invitation, After the play the guests and hosts danced in the gymnasium. Besides their own productions the Thespians also aided the Junior and Senior classes with their plays. Other highlights of the year were the initia- tion of Mr. Austin as an honorary member in the club, the awarding of pins to fifteen seniors who had been good Thespians and the inauguration of a point-award system which will go into effect in l94O. The Thespians had planned, as a fitting climax to their eventful year, a dinner to be held in honor ofthe graduating senior Thespians and a home- coming for all alumni members.

The meet- ings are conducted as much in Spanish as possible. The members discuss Spanish current events and sing the native songs. The purpose of the club is to establish a greater interest in foreign languages. There are 30 members. Latin Club The Latin Club, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Sharpnack. has enlarged itself to forty-three members, who meet every other Wednesday. The programs are alternated: one week talks are given about Roman people, their customs and Myths. the next meeting is a social one. Library Club The Library Club is one of the most active in the school, for it is the librarians who help the students and teachers with their reference work. These girls. under the direction of Miss Piersel. hold meet- ings weekly at which time they discuss the problems of a well-organized library. 56 INTERESTING VARIETY History Club Thr- appt-al of local history plus thc pnpulatrily of its siinnstir.

Our newly organized Brownie Herald was experiencing growing pains. When the staff first assembled under the direction of Miss Grossman, it was discovered that there were too many journalistic aspirants for the number of jobs. In order to choose the best of these students each new member was required to write an article. Those who showed the most promise were added to last year's staff. The writers were ready but the question was how the paper was to be published. Should it be mimeographed like the Brownie Buzzes or printed? The staff members decided to solicit advertisements and have the Brownsville Telegraph print the Herald . Incidentally, the name Brownie Herald was suggested by Milton Solomon and voted on by the staff. The name was changed because it was thought that since the paper was to be printed, it should have a name more like those of regular news sheets. After a few printings, the staff realized that they were losing money on every issue and so they returned to mimeographing. This proved unsatisfac- tory for a short time but the difficulties were ironed out and the Herald reappeared, informing the students of ace news and gossip of B. H. S. At the end of the year the whole staff and Miss Grossman concentrated their efforts on the Senior issue. This was devoted entirely to the departing boys and girls and was written with an idea of giving the seniors a memorable farewell. How well it served its purpose was proven by the last issue being a complete sell-out. The editor and staff of the Brownie Herald enjoyed their work and they hope they have left behind them a strong foundation for coming Brownie journalists to build upon. EDITOR-IN CHIEF ON-THE-MON STAFF ADVISORS EDITOR-IN-CH IEF, WESTON AND ASSISTANTS 59 ON-THE-MON STAFF The On-The-Mon staff, has overcome almost insurmountable difficulties in publishing this issue. The book was on the verge of non-existence because of lack of sub- scribers, then Mr. Williams resigned to take another job. The editors had already been chosen. Now, the problem was to get more support from the student body and patrons, and to get another sponsor. The first object was comparatively easy to the second. All the teachers already had full schedules. At last, through much readjusting of classes, Miss Donahey and Mr. Gibson, despite the fact that they realized that the book was far behind schedule and that much time and work would have to be given to complete it by the end of the term, unselfishly consented to be sponsors. Mr. Gibson completed the work on the advertising section and Miss Donahey took over the work of the general setup of the pictures, layout, etc. Too much credit cannot be given to these two instructors for their help. Their job was doubly difficult for they took over the completion of the annual in mid-stream. They are to be commended highly for they are the type of teachers that make coming to school a pleasant duty. And so, we now have our l939 On-The-Mon. The staff and sponsors will probably never forget the mad rush to get material in on time, the long meetings where decisions were made as to where to put this and how to put it , and the setbacks and victories that result in every undertaking. The staff acknowledges its indebtedness to Mr. William Giles for print- ing the pictures taken by our able student photographers, Jack Sprowls and Graham Crawford assisted by Carl Hough. CREATIVE WRITING CLUB The Creative Writing Club, organized last year, is under the direction of Miss McGinty. The club holds its weekly meetings on Thursdays. The members read and write poetry, short stories and other types ot literature. They have the distinction of being the only club, besides that of journalism, to publish a newspaper of their own. lt is called Acorns and contains their original compositions. Perhaps the best way to show what work these students are doing is by publishing two ot their works. Mother's Prayer , by Mary K. Storer and Each Day , by Alice Gusemen. Mothers Prayer A mother praying through the night. 0'er the child till early light, Praying in a voice so grave, Make him good, and make him brave. Make him strong enough to fight. So that he may see the light, May his words be always true, May he be kind his whole life through: And when his days on earth are done, May he face the setting sun With eyes alight, and with no fear, Because he knows the time is here For him to go, his life is throughg Please make him good, and make him tr ue. Each Day Everyone can do a deed. to help a friend or foe Each day. Everyone can say a word to spur a comrade on Each day. Everyone can read a word inspiring honesty and truth Each day, A word of love, of friendship true Each day. And so when you have gone away Look back and you will see A road that's filled with love and joy Built slowly day by day. ADVISOR AND OFFICERS POETS AND AUTHORS BOYS' RIFLE CLUB GIRLS' RIFLE CLUB THE STRAIGHT SHOOTERS The Boys' Rifle Club, under Mr. Hornbake, practices at the West Brownsville range. Boys interested in rifle shooting are permitted to enter the club by submitting their names to the membership committee for approval. After due consideration by the committee they are either elected or rejected because they do not qualify. The members are compelled to keep their scores in target practice to a standard level or they are automatically dropped from the club. The club, this year, became a member of the National Rifle Association which has added much interest for the members. The boys held matches with the girls' rifle team, Gillespie Seniors, Gillespie Juniors and are anticipating others, The four boys maintaining the highest averages are Nelson Wheeler with an average of 74 points, Keith Wheeler with an average of 73 points, George Rehe with an average of 67 points and Warren Wilkinson with an average of 6l points. The Girls' Rifle Club, with their sponsor, Mr. Beswick, meet every Monday, after school, at the shooting range in the West Brownsville grade school. Several weeks ago the girls joined the National Rifle Association which gives them the privilege of shooting for medals. Quite a number of girls have already passed the requirements for the first medal. The club this year shot in matches against the boys' rifle team and the girls' and bays' rifle teams of Gillespie. They also made plans to challenge the girls from C. S. T. C. Although the club was only formed three years ago it has quickly become one of the most popular in school. There is always a waiting list of girls wishing to join. These girls must first pass sighting tests and then are given admittance. The club boasts seventeen members. The four highest averages are held by Meta McAndrews with 59., Dorothy Goldstein whose average is 58., Betty Goldstein, who shoots an average of 56., and Mary E. Keck with an average of 55. NATIONAL FORENSIC LEAGUE l The National Forensic League is an honor society for high school debators, orators, and readers. It is a national organization, founded in i925 to stimulate interest in interscholastic speech activity. Our high school chapter has thirty active members, making it the sixth largest club in this district. At the meetings, which are held every other Wednesday, plans are made for tournaments and contests. Following the business part of the meeting a program is given. Only the members participate, by giving their readings, orations and poems. The forensic club, like the music groups, holds district, state and nation- wide tournaments. ln order to train the student, before he enters these contests he is assigned to either Mr. Walker, Mr. Smith Coldren, Mrs. Sharpnack, Miss Miller or Miss Nicholas for individual coaching. l-le then travels to practice tournaments which are held by the neighboring schools. These tournaments aid him in gaining poise, accustoming himself to audiences and learning his speech. Humorous Readers Halley Orators Our Brownsville chapter visited Bentleyville, Monessen, Waynesburg, Centerville, Perryopolis, and California. They also held a tournament here at home and invited 14 schools. It was estimated that l65 students and coaches accepted Brownsville's invitation. Probably the most interesting of all the forensic events, this year, was the Student Congress held at California on March l lth and l2th. The Con- gress was headed by J. Buell Snyder and other well-known district leaders. The representatives spent the two days bringing up bills before both houses, making laws, and carrying on all business that is usually transacted by a congress. Our school was represented by two senators, Irving Avner and Betty Goldstein and three representatives: Meta McAndrews, Shirley Mitchell, and William Halley. The readers and orators are eagerly looking forward to the contests at California and Perryopolis. Should they be victorious there they will be eligible to go to the state contest at Norristown and if successful the finals at Beverly Hills, California. .sy l r ,' P Ge iv-9 .

S. history the gridiron warriors of the Blue and White became undisputed possessors of the Monongahela Valley Big Six Crown. Boasting of a season's record in Valley competition of four wins and one tie, the team rolled up a total of 77 points to their opponent's 19. For the seasons total the figures showed the Brownies superior to the opposition by a margin of 23 first downs to 44 and 168 points to 25. But-lest we forget-recognition must be made to the Athletic Director Carl Aschman and assistant coaches Earl Bruce and Andrew Sepsi, the mentors who were in charge of the squad. And to the faithful athletic managers-indispensible is the most fitting term which can be applied to senior, John Henry, juniors, Kenneth King and Charles Britvich and sophomore, Russell Donnelly for their work during the year. ' The Brownies opened the season September 9, in a nocturnal encounter with Washington, Pals Trinity High Hilltoppers, to make a somewhat shaky start, but finally pulled through with a 13-0 victory. On September 30, the warriors of Blue and White entered Big 6 warfare and again stumbled over the Charleroi jinx when the Cougars rallied to give the B. H. S. gridmen their only tie by completing a fifty yard pass in the fourth quarter. The scoref13-13. Just seven days later Monessen fell victim to an aroused Brownie eleven which overwhelmed them 17 to 3 in first downs and 13-0 in points. A letdown coupled with some of the strongest opposition of the year gave the Vikings quite a scare but they finally eked out a 12-6 win over the Wildcats at Monongahela on October 15. It was a hard fought game they played with Ca1ifornia's Cubs under the Water St. lights on the 21st but B. H. S. won again, 20-0. Clinching the Big 6 title, an inspired Brownie eleven gave their best performance of the year to defeat Donora on October 28 to the tune of 19-0. Costello Potsklan Keefer Brown Sager At Camp Rosen Mon City Game COACHES AND MANAGERS OUR CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM FAYETTE COUNTY CHAMPS The history of the Brownies' capture of the county title is short but sweet in that it was accom- plished by a record of three viriories to no defeats and an overwhelming total of '78 points to their opponents' 6. Starting their quest for the title against German Township before 5.000 fans. the Blue and White turned on the power to swamp the invaders 27-0. Remembering last year's 6-6 tie, the conquering Viking gridmen again showed their championship colors by running roughshod over the Black and White of Redstone 25-0. The Brownies finished the year in true championship style at Uniontown on Armistice Day when they crushed the Red Raiders 26-6 and captured their second crown, the County Championship, At left end was Hiller's John Potsklan, Big Six endga junior of 160 lbs. A stalwart on offense and defense was Big Six and all-county left tackle Max Kielbasa of Knoxville.

With entire squad totaling only ten members, the team turned in an enviable record for the year with a total of l4 wins and nine defeats for a season's percentage of .608. A total of 627 points were registered by the basketeers, being led by Buck Sutton who scored l94 markers in the 23 games. ln the Big Six the Brownies made quite an improvement over their previous year's record to wind up in third place behind Charleroi and Monessen. Although outscored 3l 5 points to 3l0 by their rivals, the boys won six games and lost four, a .600 average, to clinch their berth in the standings. The season's record of games and their scores were: South Union 32-2l, Washington, l4-43, Bentleyville, 30-20, Connellsville, 23-l6, Mun- hall, 35-29, South Union, 28-27, Monessen, l4-40, Uniontown, 26-38, Charleroi, 22-3l, Washington, 22-47, Donora, 43-32, California, 34-20, Redstone, 42-35, Monongahela, 32-30, Monessen, 22-46, Uniontown, 26-32, Charleroi, 33-34, Carmichaels, 37-48, Donora, 45-37, and California, 22-l8, Connellsville 33-27. I The squad's members included: Paul Buck Sutton, high-scoring center who was chosen center on the sports-scribes' Big Six team, Eddie Cesarone, veteran senior guard, captain and mainstay who was a first- stringer for three years, Elmer Cone, a senior forward, who was second only to Sutton in points scored with l39, Thomas Taylor, another junior forward who played a consistently good game all year, Max Kielbasa, versatile senior who played guard on the first string throughout the year, Jack Gallagher, a sophomore who saw plenty of action as both guard and forward, Pete Daley, diminutive senior forward, Jack Sokol, a sophomore guard, and Novinsky, a junior center. BASKET BALL MINOR SPORTS Athletes ofthe Blue and White entered three other branches of sport in interscholastic competition, these being baseball, track, and tennis. The baseball team was the most successful and the most active of the group, considering the fact that it was B. H. S.'s first year in baseball com- petition. The team compiled a remarkable record, winning ten games and losing only two. The team played two games each with Redstone, East Bethlehem, Perry Township, Monessen, and East Pike and played single games with Washington and California High Schools. The two blemishes on the record were administered by Washington and Redstone, Coached by Aschman, Bruce, and Sepsi. The boys set a high standard for subsequent teams to match. The track squad, composed of thirty members, and coached by Sooner Shelton, entered three meets. The first was between Jefferson and Browns- ville. The second included German, Georges, and the Brownies, and the- third the county meet included most of the County's schools. Members of the squad who placed first in their respective contests were Hornick, Taylor, and Thompson. The tennis team, composed of a traveling squad of six members, met teams from Charleroi, Monessen, Waynesburg, and West Newton twice each in encounters on a home and home basis and played one match with Dawson. Although not so successful against the older and stronger teams they met, the boys gave creditable performances and laid a good groundwork for future teams. The cheerleaders for the year were senior, Tommy Burns, juniors, Betty Elder, Lorene Zebley and Carl Taylor, and sophomores, Dolores Murphy and Betty Murphy. They deserve much praise for their work at the games and the part they played in contributing to the expression of school spirit. I3PUB'II3HD'I'3 'IT BHIIDUIII Emblematic of Mon Valley football supremacy is the Big Six Cup, which is shown here being presented to Captain John Rosen by Don Renn, sports editor of the Brownsville Telegraph. The trophy was given to the team in recognition of their victories over the other schools of the Mon Valley league at a banquet spon- sored by the Jefferson Township Booster's Association. The Brownies also received, in recognition of their Big Six accomplish- ments, the American Legion trophy awarded annually to the valley champion. The B. H. S. gridmen were treated to three of a kind at the Boosters banquet when they were also presented with the Herald- Genius trophy, a beautiful gold and black award which the Brownies received as the 1939 county champs. Also pictured are two shots of the team in action in the game with Mon City the only daylight game of the season. The cheerleaders for the year were lined up for their picture and next to them are seen several members of the tennis team. The sports parade would not be complete without a scene from camp, so we give you one of a brisk afternoon scrimmage. Last but not least is the stalwart line, backbone of the team, we are proud to call the champs.
