It is time to start our lives anew. Luck to you in everything you do. You’ll remember high school, wait and see. Class of ’53. Class Flower Red Roses Class Colors Class Motto Red And White We climbed the hill; the mountain stands before us. Zj'orewor J We are but one small town on a very busy river in one of the geographically smaller states but so economically important as to be called the Keystone State of the United States. Our school is but one of the many brick structures that make up the foundation of our American Democracy. The success of the American experiment in government has come from the democratic tendencies of its basic institutions—the home, the church, and the school. Here in the Monongahela Valley, we work and play in the bright sunshine of peace, all the while praying that the threat of war will never dim this brightness. Here within the covers of this book, by means of illustrated pages, we are presenting along with the most interesting and outstanding events of the school term, our everyday life, which is in itself a min- iature democracy. Our classes prepare us for future careers, and our extra-curricular activities bring out hidden talents and abilities. Armed with our wide variety of subjects, sports, clubs and organizations, we will be well-prepared for our life in the business world after graduation.

Mr. Fritsch attended Clark High School in Carnegie, and Arizona University at Tempe. Before coming to our school, Mr. Fritsch taught at Scott Township High School. Mr. Fritsch is the head football coach and instructor of boys’ physical education classes. He has been here in the Senior High for three years and has made a lasting impression upon the many students who are now his friends. He is known by everyone, not as Mr. Fritsch, but as “Coach. Coach is a friend and advisor of the whole Senior Class and has helped them all over the rough spots in their work. Coach always has a pleasant smile, and a cheerful word for every- one he sees. This is one of the many reasons for his large number of friends in the school. His players, also, hold him in high regard. For in addition to his amiable personality, he is with them “all the way — and this attitude is one of the essentials in the make-up of a good coach. We want Mr. Fritsch to know how much we appreciate his being here, and the happiness and pleasure he has helped to give us. So to you. Coach, this is our way of saying thanks for everything. 6 MR.

It includes a delegation sent to Indiana State University in June, a Sweater Hop in Sep- tember, a party and Fall Festival of Plays in October, additional plays in November, initiation and Christmas Program in December, entries in a One Act Play Contest in January, a Tea in February, a United Nations Party in March, a Children’s Play in April, and to bring the year to a grand close—their Annual Awards Banquet in May.

The girls were taught the fundamentals of flower arrangement, cooking, canning, table service, good grooming, and child care. The Club’s meetings are held once a month at the annex. The annual Mother-Daughter Tea was held prior to the Christmas season, with nearly 150 members and guests attending. A Pre-Lenten Dance was also sponsored by the group. Originally the Club was formed for girls, but now that the boys have taken an interest, there is an all-boy class held weekly. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA. 78 MOTHER-DAUGHTER TEA.

Forensics is a great help in teaching and giving us practice in this second task. Through a variety of contests over a large area we learn to associate with varied groups, and to participate with these groups in express- ing themselves by speaking. The work is difficult, but the goal is worthy of the effort. The 1953 edition is composed of Bill Gillis and Robert Fast as affirmatives; Harriet Laby and Charles MeAndrews making up the negative. In other phases of speech activity, Barbara Garred represented the school in Humorous Declamation and Mary Ann Mowder in Serious Declamation; Harry McConnell in extemporan- eus speaking, Gayle Householder in Posters, Vina Crable, Declamations, Ruth Cooper, Decla- mations, and James D.

In addition to being an able administrator, Bob has been an excellent second affirma- tive debater as well as a superb adjutant. BILL GILL1S Bill has been an outstanding first affirmative speaker and debater. Possessing a good voice, capable mind and a super- ior appearance, this debater has developed into a first class Forensic performer. Bill is the glamour boy of the club. HARRIET LABY Harriet is the most experienced debater on the 1953 team. With this experience, outstanding appearance and an appli- cation of purpose this Forensic student was evalutionized into a very practical and successful debater. Perhaps just as important, has been the enjoyment of having Harriet on the team by her colleagues and Coach. CHARLES McANDREWS Chuck is our second negative and a fine Irishman he is. With an excellent appearance, oratorical delivery and congen- ial personality, this student has not only been a top notch debater but an excellent companion of the team and Coach. The Band was very active during the football season this year. During half-time, the Band formed drills, and played popular music and marches; some of the numbers were written by Mr. Battaglini, the director. A lot of time is spent in practice by the Band, but hearing them play shows that it is well worth their while. The outstanding drill of the season was the one in which Mr. Battaglini had the Band take different formations as they played his original numbers, and the most outstanding of these was the formation of a hammer and sickle and the playing of “Uncle Joe.” The Band held an Annual Spring Concert for the student body and the general public at which they really had a chance to show off their many talents. There were ten members from our Band who participated in the all County High School participated in the all-County High School Band Festival which was held in the Union- town V.F.W. auditorium. At this Festival, Mr. Lawrence Intravaia of West Virginia University was the guest conductor. The Band also marched in the Armistice Day Parade which was held in Connellsville. In November, the Band held a “Battle of Bands,” at the stadium. The show was a success, even though the crowd was small due to the extreme cold. The participating Bands were: East Beth, Ellsworth, California, Centerville, Charleroi, Rostraver, German Township, Waynesburg High School, the Waynesburg Kiltie Band and the Host Band Brownsville. All Bands received a trophy for appearing. The main event of the evening was the number given by the Waynesburg Kiltie Band. This was the first time an affair of this type was held in this area. With the success of the first one many more will follow. Seated: Jerry Darulla, Vice-Presi- dent; Leo Augustus, President; George Harvey, Treasurer; Cynthia Sheplar, Secretary.

It was under his supervision that the Chorus sang at the bank, enter- tained the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, and gave a performance for our Christmas Program. The annual event of the Chorus is the Spring Choral Con- cert which is held in the Junior High Auditorium for both students and the public. The 1953 season was brought to a close with singing at the Commencement Exercises. S. Zobec, J. Dial, J. Sang, B. Laync, B. Potsklan, M. Carroll, S. Beachley, J. Gazella, L. Davis, E. Kilroy, P.

The 1953 edition of On-The-Mon, under the supervision of Mr. Charles Kenton, got off to a good start this year. Without previous experience the staff set forth to try to make this the best and biggest Annual ever. We of the staff believe that there should be more student activities, and to further this thought, we sponsored a popularity contest and held a Valentine’s Day Dance at which a king and queen were crowned. The compiling of a Yearbook involves a lot of work, which never could have been completed if it were not given to various students to do.

Five fumbles spelled the defeat for the Brownies. Arthur Pugh set a new record by blocking two punts and two extra points. Bill Connors scored the only TD for the Brownies. Bracco played a bang-up game for Munhall. Brownsville 0 Redstone 7 This game can be remembered as one of the hardest fought games of the season. It was a battle of the forward walls as the defensive lines- man on both teams stood out from start to finish. The Hawks manufactured only two first downs and the Brownies four. The score was set up by Quarrick’s recovery of a Brownie fumble on the forty. McCuen managed to go over the goal for the only TD. He split the uprights making it a 7-0 ball game. From then on, it was a see-saw battle with neither team scoring. Brownsville 31 Monesson 6 The Brownies were on the winning end this time as they managed to chalk up their first victory in the Big Six Conference. Monesson was stopped cold by the offensive and defensive for- ward walls. Brashear made a touchdown in the opening two minutes of the game. “H” went on to score in the fourth period. Art Pugh scored as he grabbed a fumble out of the air and went 82 yards for a TD. Mucci scored twice for the Brownies. One of his TD’s resulted in one of the greatest runs ever seen in the Brownie Stadium since 1943. He faked two would-be tacklers out of position and went for a TD. Brownsville 29 Duquesne 0 The Brownies were sensational as they rolled over Duquesne. Each player did his share in racking up this victory. The running attack was led by Howie Brashear who ripped through the Duquesne forward wall time after time. The Duquesne running attack was stopped cold by our strong defensive line. Jackson received credit for two touchdowns as he was on the spot to recover two fumbles made in the end zone. Parr and Mucci each accounted for a TD. Bob Green was the lone threat for the Dukes. Brownsville 12 Charleroi 13 It was only an extra point but it meant the defeat of the Brownies. The running attack paced by Howie and Mucci was at its best as each “Mighty Mite’’ scored a TD. The blocking of the forward wall was near perfect, but some- how the breaks in the game were in favor of the Cougars. The Brownies threatened in the final stanza when Smiell recovered a Charleroi fumble but the Brownies lost the ball on an interception. Charleroi froze the ball until the final whistle blew. Brownsville 26 Monongahela 7 Mon City offered little opposition as the Brownies hit pay territory in every period of the game. The forward line held as they forced the Wildcats to punt from behind their goal line. Mucci went over for two of the Brownie TDs. Howie Brashear and Carl Jackson also scored a TD in the lopsided encounter. Tommy Mar- chando played his usual fast and furious game on the defense. Brownsville 14 Donora 32 The lead the Brownies had at half time didn’t mean much as the Dragons came back strong in the second half to score twenty-six points. Polon- ali of Donora scored the first touchdown. Robin- son grabbed the ball on a Donora fumble and went over for the first Brownie TD. In the second half, Cecconi, Lewis and Rosborough scored for Donora. Mucci went over for the final TD. Mar- chando and Pugh stood out on the defense. Brownsville 32 Uniontown 26 In one of the most exciting games seen this season, the Brownies managed to score in the final minutes to come out a winner. The Brownies displayed a lot of teamwork in pulling the game out of the fire. They fought back after trailing 26-7. Komlo, Shoner, and Nehl scored for the Raiders. Howie, Mucci, Robinson, Jackson, and Connors scored for the Brownies. The play of Marchando was outstanding on the defense. Brownsville 6 Carmichaels 19 The scrappy Green County eleven took its first victory over the Brownies. The hard running of Larry Krutko proved to be the Mikes key note in winning the victory. Haught scored in the opening minutes of the game. “H’’ Brashear rambled over in the second half for the only Brownie TD. Krutko scored for the Mikes. “Little Mucci” was in the lineup for Jack Parr, who was sidelined with injuries. Brownsville 20 Connellsville 0 The Brownies closed the season by defeating Connellsville and ending up with a .500 average. The scores were made by Connors, Parr, and “Big Mucci.” Howie and “Little Mucci” played a top-notch offensive game. Playing their final game were Frank Bartolomucci, Howie Brashear, Jack Parr, Tom Stefl, Gilbert Shoaf, Art Pugh, Jerry Smiell, and Tommy Marchando. 93 HOWARD BRASHEAR “H,” West Brownsville’s pride and joy, was our pint size halfback. He was a speedster and could be depended on to make long yardage gains. What he lacked in size, he made up in desire and determination. He was one of the hardest runners in the district. His outstanding games were against Duquesne and Charleroi. He received second team distinction on the Big Six Team. “H” also plays basketball, baseball, and he is on the track team. He is an all around athlete. JACK PARR “Big Jack” was the boy you saw handling our kicking- off and punting duties. If you have witnessed very many games, you will agree that Brownsville has produced a terrific kicker. He was the spot pass receiver. His force- fulness and ability were best shown in the Monongahela and Connellsvillc games. Jack became outstanding toward the end of the season. We would like to have Jack back again next year but he won’t be around after May. t GILBERT SHOAF “Gil” was one of the long line of Shoaf’s that played football for the Brownies. This reliable Grindstone boy held down the center of the line and very efficiently did his job of bringing down the ball carriers from his tackle position. He was a rugged guard an the forward wall. His best games were against Duquesne and Monesson. He received honorable mention on the Big Six Team. Too bad he won’t be around next year. TOM MARCHANDO Tommy played gtxxl ball as he held down the guard slot very effectively. Time and again, he was a threat to the other team as he stopped many plays that otherwise would have meant disaster. He played his best games against Donora and Uniontown. He won a first team berth on the Big Six Team and received honorable men- tion on the W.P.I.A.L. Team. His services will be greatly missed next year. ' I V JERRY SMIELL “Herky” was a demon on the defense. He started off the season playing guard and was later shifted to a tackle position. He did a commendable job at both. He was an enthusiastic player and could be depended on to do his best. He plugged those holes on the defensive forward wall. Jlis best games were against Charleroi and Mones- son. “Herky” was only out for football one year. We would like to see him have another year of eligibility. TOM STEFL Tommy, a stellar tackle, received distinction on the second team of the Big Six. He performed with few flaws as he opened up holes for our ball carriers and brought down the opponent ball carriers. He also did some excel- lent blocking for his team. His best games were against Munhall and Monesson. Too bad he is a senior, who won’t be around after May. FRANK BARTOLOMUCCI “Mucci,” a spark in the backfield was top scorer. His Big Six vote to first team was unanimous. Excelling in broken field running, this speedy halfback got off on many long runs. His attitude spread team spirit. Although not very heavy, he proved to he worth his weight in gold. His best games were against Charleroi and Monongahela. This senior will be greatly missed next year. f ARTHUR PUGH Art held down a guard position on the team. He was outstanding on blocking for the entire Brownie schedule. We depended on Art to block the opponents kicks. He managed to get in the other team’s backfield on practic- ally every play and many times threw their carriers for a loss. His best games were against Munhall and Mones- son. This senior also plays basketball.

KREUTER Assistant Coach The season so far has been an up and down affair, but the Brownies have been improving with each game and gaining valuable playing experience. This is just a fresh team, and it will take a little while to wear off the first season nervous- ness. With a little experience, the tall boys on the team should prove to be the valuable assets the team so sorely needs. Mr. Addis is the coach, and is doing a very good job of it. He has gained the confidence of all the boys on the team as they are on the whole, only Juniors and Sophomores. The varsity squad will lose three valuable players by graduation in May. But, the Sophomores and Juniors playing this year are gaining much experience and should be able to make up for this loss. G. Gaydos, R. Smith, R. Paydo, J. Lockeridge.

At the Brownie Stadium the past year two quadrangular meets as well as two dual meets were held. The Brownies appeared in the W.P.I.A.L. relays, the Fayette County meet, the W.P.I.A.L. meet and the Annual Mon Valley meet.

Whiteko, D. Jackson, R. James, R. Cic- chetti, R. Horwatt. SaUJl The Brownsville Baseball Team finished their season with a four won and six lost record. Al- though not a poor record, it underestimates the ability of the Team. The Team had hard luck throughout the season and had several heart- breaking losses inflicted on them. Eight Brownies were lost by graduation, but with five regulars returning, the 1953 squad should be one of great potentialities. GAMES California ....................
