If this book recalls sweet mem'ries On this will rest its fame. All too soon you'll forget the struggle, For knowledge you sought to gain, But this Carrickter may remind you That your efforts were not in vain. To revive in your thoughts those con- tests, In swimming, in track, and in ball, Will bring you a thrill of real pleasure, That is worthy of your recall. Then you'll wish to recount the good times While at dances, at clubs and plays, Such social events we've included, A reminder of high school days. In pondering over these happenings, And dreaming of days gone by, May this Year Book be a reminder, Of life at Carrick High. IC TI DEDICATION TO OUR MOTHERS AND FATHERS Too often we fail to recognize The part our parents play, In making our lives sucessful, In guiding us on our way. Too much that they do is expected, Too little we think of their care, We are wont to take things for granted, While our parents our burdens will bear. Our school days have passed too quickly, And our happiest time is o'er, The world awaits our coming With larger duties and more, Then here we shall pay a tribute To our Mothers and Fathers dear Who rejoice in all our progress, Who encourage us more each year. And mindful of all their interest, Their patience, their thought and care, To Our Parents, this volume we dedicate, That in our joy they may share. -H - i 4 ff? -- 7,--Z' if IN MEMUIQIAM MERWIN A.

It was on a cold Feb- ruary morning in 1925 when we, the class of '29, boarded that great ship of education, Carrick High School, on which we were to continue our journey into the sea of knowledge. We were as- signed to the lowest deck, the Freshman Class, under the sponsorship of Miss Bachmann in Room 34. We were frankly told that we could not reach our destination, our Senior year, unless we would willingly and carefully accomplish all tasks as- signed to us. Therefore, we went to work with real earnestness, devoting little time to pleasure. A year later we were overjoyed to learn that our ship had safely anchored in Sophomore Land. I I deed, and that was only four The Sophomore year was one of many hard- ships, but it was also one of great achievement. We organized in Room 24 under the guidance of Miss Crawley. Under the title of The Friendship Club , we elected Elmer Keller president of the Sophomore B term and five months later Tom Henderson was elected president of the Sophomore A ' class. We tried to live up to our motto, Friends now, friends forever in all our activities and we believe we succeeded. Will we ever forget the parties we held, especially the surprise party on Miss Crawley at Blair Powell's home? However, our joys were interrupted for a period as a result of the death of one of our classmates, Richard Taylor, who was sadly missed by all. In February, 1927, after our second year of rough sailing we were permitted to ascend to a higher deck under the name of Junior 'B's, As Junior B's we lost no time in electing our class oflicers. John Balserait received the honor of being our class president. Nothing unusual hap- pened in this semester. However, a few passengers left the ship, some to board other ships of educa- tion while others went out into the business world. During this time, we were gradually moving on and we were Junior A's before we realized it. 0 At the beginning of the Junior A semester our passenger list was almost doubled. This was due to the transfer of students from other educa- tional ships, especially from the good ship Union. The group, consisting of twenty-one students, was kindly received by the other passengers. These new students added to the pleasure and interest of the trip so much that the old crew wondered how they ever got along without them. With the addition of the new passengers and with those already-on board, the ship anchored in Room 29 under the guidance of Mr, Steele, whom we at first feared Qmaybe it was due to his heightj . We finally over- came this fear and we wouldn't exchange our cap- tain for that of any other ship for all the gold in the world. Robert Lanz was chosen as the class president. A few parties were held, but things on the whole ran smoothly until we entered the great land of 'lSeniorship. Our dreams of three years ago, when we looked with envy and awe at the Seniors of that time, had really come true. We were now dignified Senior B's. Robert Lanz was re-elected as class president, with Elmer Keller as vice-president, Elizabeth Walls as secretary, and Hilda Grimm as treasurer. Miss Thompson and Mr. Lyons were chosen as our class sponsors. Oh! what would we have done +.i,, ,.I,,., V 4 ,-..- .Hifi - it , wwf: E7 ETF? R ,,.,.f in EY: E 5, ,, il..

We established the reputation of being un- usually original when we sponsored that great Boat Ride on the Homer Smith on May 26th. Soon after our last social event, a dance given in honor of the Senior A's of June '28, we arrived at the port, Senior Ks. They were The Romancers , The Pot-Boilers , and Fourteen , all of them delightful plays and well given under the guidance of Miss Clark. Now we have entered the harbor of Graduation. We shall soon leave our dear old ship, Carrick High. Some of our classmates will board ships of higher education while others will go out into the t. P, ,, if Our first social event of the Senior A's semester was a corn roast which we will always remember. Next came our class plays. Yes, there were three one-act plays instead of the usual three-act play. business world. No matter which path we follow we will always look back to our days in Carrick High with fond memories. AUGUSTA MAXWET. CLASS POEM '29 When we were Freshmen our love had its birth, And it grew as we realized your worth, And we were proud we belonged to you, We tried to be loyal to the gold and blue. So one by one the years passed by Until now-we're leaving you, Carrick High! We worked and we played while the years did Hee, We found with the bitter was mixed the sweet. In our books can't be found all the lessons we learned: To be fair, to have truth, take no more than we earned. And now on those years we look back with a sigh, We grieve that we're leaving so soon, Carrick High! For although our four years in high school are done, Our term in Life's school, we find just begun. We brace ourselves up with our motto unfurled, As forward we leap to the call of the world! And with it for guidance we never will swerve, We entered to learn and we go forth to serve!

The Senior Classes of February and June have united their efforts to produce a better book at smaller cost. The Staff is composed of members of both Classes who believe this new plan will prove a very satisfactory one. There are disadvantages to be sure, HE Carrickter, published by the but they do not outnumber the advantages by any means. A fine division of labor, which has been arranged, between the two classes, contributed greatly to the success of the Annual. Two members of the February Class, Esther Sexauer and Helen Colteryahn, are responsible for the splendid Art work. Members of the June Class have done their share by completing the Editorial work since the graduation of the February Class. The Members of the staff are:- EDITORIAL Editor-in-Chief--Virginia Hammond Associate Editors--Elizabeth Walls Clara Loughran Clubs Editor--Dorothy Degenhardt Class History-Augusta Maxwet, William Hertel Class Prophecy-Jeanne Truter, Helen Hurley Class Will-Alphild Roos, Violet Davies Sports Editors-Ethel Klein, Albert Wolfe Art Editors, Designing-Esther Sexauer Printing-Helen Colteryahn Cartoons--Dorothy Pritchard BUSINESS STAFF Business Manager-Theresa Priore Assistant Business Manager-John Leppla Circulation-Wm.

Vividly do I recollect the day, early in Sep- tember. 1925. when I enlisted in the Great Army of Learning with some other rookies, then termed freshies, of Carrick High. Unquestionably those were the happiest days for all of us. Our class, being very large, was divided into two groups. Miss Bell took charge of one section, while Miss Korb had the other. We took delight in the fine advantages Carrick offered us: the new swim- ming pool, shop, and the cafeteria, where tempting dishes were served. At first we seemed to be sur- rounded by an air of awe and wonder-perhaps because Carrick was so new and strange to us all. Yet, the fact that it was our first experience in a large but well-organized school, where strange faces and new teachers were all about us, may have accounted for our odd feeling. This feeling soon wore off, however, and we became a group of happy, friendly students. Our first social under- taking was a sucessful Freshman Party held in the gymnasium. Our freshman year soon rolled by and we en- tered into our sophomore activities. This year pass- ed without much excitement but we did, however, make the acquaintance of many new friends. Of course, there was a dance, but it had to be held in the gymnasium, as only the upper classmen were permitted to hold similar affairs outside of the school. We'll soon be upper classmen now. The next year we were admitted to the Royal Order of Juniors. We had the pleasure of welcom- ing a large number of new pupils from the Knox- ville Union High School, as that institution was reorganized as a Junior High School. By this addi- tion at least fifteen more members were admitted to our class. We soon made our one time school rivals feel right at home in their new Alma Mater. We certainly enjoyed glorious times together. Our Junior Prom was a gala affair and was greatly en- joyed by everyone who took part in the festivities. Finally we accomplished our long cherished goal -that of being Seniors. Proud and haughty as we may have seemed to the Juniors yet we realized that we were entering into the most important year of our high school activities. We elected officers. Edgar Meyers was chosen President: Wilson Renne, Vice President: Virginia Hammond, Secre- tary, and Margaret Gunderman. Treasurer. Mr. Hulley and Miss Clark were chosen as sponsors, to assist and guide us throughout the year until our departure from Carrick High. Family Night proved to be a huge success, both socially and financially. Something new, a Dutch Tea Room, was introduced. The dancers turned out in such large numbers that the gymnasium was not adequate to hold so large a crowd. Our class play, The New Poor, was a good example of a comedy farce. The auditorium was filled to its capacity. At length the time came for departing from all our friends. Our class was one of the largest that ever graduated from Carrick High School. WILLIAM HERTEL.

There's the taxi-I hope I don't miss the train. Bump-Bump- Bump. Hello everybody! Is everyone here? Where's Reds? Did Buck come with her? Oh! boys, here's the train. I wonder if they'll call us at the gate? This suitcase surely is heavy. Just imagine riding for six hours! Well, anyhow, I'll get some sleep. Ho Hum! Oh, where's Bud Bild- stein? We just can't go without him! He's here- All is well-on to Washington! Hurray-There's a tall monument off in the distance! This must be Washington! Oh-Oh-Oh! I'm all excited! I'll never survive. Hey, Reds! why the sad look? Homesick? No time for that! Oh! There's the Capitol. I knew it would look like that. Just like the B. 26. O. folders. Dinner's over at the Lee House, We're off to the Fox Theatre forty-eight strong. Such fun! Some- time in the roseate future, other students of Carrick High may view a monument in the public square, erected to the Honorary Fellow Woodchucks, the order which had its origin that memorable night of March 28, 1929. Their password, Ha Ha- Woodchucks-Ho, Ho-Woodchucks, will still haunt the lobby and corridors of the famous Lee House about three in the morning as a reminder of the founders of that notable organization:- Smith, Renne, Meyers, Kunzler, Bildstein, Sayen- ga, Henk, Breuer, Greiner, Jones and Kalberer. Money, money, everywhere and not a cent to spend! Come back here, Wilson Renne. You're not allowed down there! Look, Miss Paul, he's try- ing to climb down to the employees department! You can't trust him. Remember how he acted on I pact and pocketbook? Mom. did l if-H- '-T i--W -Q the train? Don't we get a ten dollar bill as a souvenir? My, I'm disappointed! Oh! Look at those adorable fellows! Isn't Annapolis wonderful? Oh! I'm going to join the Navy 'cause I adore brass buttons. How fortunate we are to be able to review the midshipmen with the Secretary of Navy Adams! Mount Vernon greeted us on a very rainy day. but even rain can't dampen the indomitable spirits of the Seniors of Carrick High School. It was a grand bumpless ride home on the boat-so much smoother than that street car ride down. Such heavenly dancing-a great boat-The Charles McAllister. How I'd like to speak to the famous architect who put the steps in this Washington Monument. My feet feel like the ad for Blue Jay Corn Plasters. Why just look how high we are. Look at those ants- - - what?-Not ants? People? Excuse me. Well, I guess those moving toys are automobiles-uh huh! Better call the roll. Is everyone here? I just knew Al. Smith wouldn't leave that zoo. The keeper said to me as I came out, Where are you going? Just for a walk. Well-be back at feeding time. That's how I got out. Back at the hotel! Everyone is busy packing. Sniff! Sniff. It's back to Pittsburgh for us. All was silent and peaceful until McKeesport was reached. Then-the vigorous exhuberance of youth again ruled. Cheers for Mr. Reno, our con- ductor, could be heard-cheers for the sponsors, Miss Paul and Miss Harris--cheers for the Lee House! Miss Helen Paul awoke and lo! we were in Pittsburgh. Really, dear reader-the trip was great. It was very educational, but included loads of fun. No wonder the Seniors can smile! LM. ' uaver u..1mz,,.,,a.

Of course, they'll miss us. Who wouldn't? We are such a line class. Even the teachers will drape themselves in black when we depart to a higher and mightier road. Some will be- come actors, actresses, dish-washers, street-cleaners, journalists, aviators, and collegiates. Perhaps each reader will find it hard to distinguish one senior from another.

YY W l9l20l9l-I Eli T was too good to be true. We, were being invited to a reunion given by Ralph Bildstein, the millionaire financier, at his sum- mer camp on the Severn River. Hastily ransacking the apartment we gathered our necessary belongings and hurried off to the hangar so that not a minute of the reunion should be lost Ire as members of the class of '29, in travel. Upon arriving at the lodge we found ahead of us none other than Vera Thomas, the prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera Company, and her gifted accompanist, Myra Belle Davis. Chatting merrily with these old friends, we entered the house and met Ella Mae Caskey, who is happily married to a certain member of the class, and Mar- garet Gunderman, another who has embarked on the sea of matrimony. Virginia Hammond, the noted actress, who won her fame in a play written by Freda Seiferth, and Sara Lewis, the foreign buyer for Wanamakers, were standing George Port and Nelson Williams in a rubber of bridge. You will recall that those football stars of Carrick are coaching the All-American Team for 1935. Leav- ing these bridge hounds to their orgies we left the house to play some golf with Francis Moore, the golf professional at South Hills Country Club, and Thomas Henderson who has taken up Chemical Engineering on a large scale. After tea all the guests gathered to watch the mixed doubles of tennis. Walter Kase, the cham- pion of the Atlantic Coast, with LaRue Wagner, our beauty of the silver screen, were to stand Irene Schmidt, a Pittsburgh City organist, and Ronald -- --ir Nestor, who, as fates decreed, invented a chemical substitute for meat in his laboratory at New York. Along the gallery we noticed Clara Loughran, the author of the best seller written during the year. After the match the guests gathered in the stately dining hall for dinner. Hal Bauer who is master of ceremonies at the Roxy Theater, acted as toast- master. Edgar Meyers, a prominent banker of Wall Street, made a few remarks and Robert Lanz, a lawyer of considerable note, was the next speaker. After the dinner the guests assembled in the spa- cious living room where we were entertained by Duke Balfrey and Martha Rogge, members of the Zeigfield Follies. Elizabeth Walls, a famous actress, next gave some clever initations. Ralph Litzenburger, a second Kreisler, played some beau- tiful music. He was accompanied by Rose Ball, the director of music in Chicago. Esther Sexauer and Arthur Lewis, dramatists, offered some clever se- lections from a new show opening next fall in New York. The last number on the evening's pro- gram was a dance by Mary Friethofer, who has taken Ruth St, Denis' place in the world of ballet. Part of the next morning was spent in the gor- geous outdoor swimming pool. John Schmieler, an Olympic Champion, gave an exhibition. We met again after the many years, Rose Marie Demes- tichas, the distinguished editor of the New York World and Albert Wolf, the Sports Editor of the same paper. We also renewed our acquaintance with Lucille Anderson, Helen Colteryahn and Rose Mary Unger, models in Dorothy Degenhart's ex- clusive shoppe in New York. Before luncheon, as we inspected the library, we came upon Elmer Keller and William Maphis, the QA A 1929 THE CAIQIQICIYTEIQ IQQQ architects of a great cathedral to be erected in Bos- ton. They were talking over the decoration with Dorothy Pritchard and Ruth Long, distinguished artists of New York. V After leaving the library, we encountered Theresa Priore and Alphild Roos, secretaries to John Kerr, a director in the Mellon National Bank. After talking with these classmates until tea, we spent half an hour persuading Dorothea Say and Doris Feick, both of the Home Economics Depart- ment at Margaret Morrison, to risk -their necks with Joseph Riley in an aeroplane. The latter was to do some stunt flying in his plane for the amuse- ment of the guests who had deserted the bridge tables. i Next morning those who were brave forsook their beds and went for av canter along the river. While riding along we had'the opportunity of in- quiring into the occupation of Wilson Renne and Victor Matteson. The former had followed a worthy profession, that of putting victims out of their misery by extracting their faulty teeth. Vic- tor, it seems, is bravely inducing college students to have some regard for their ,mother tongue, by teaching the principles of that worthy language. Upon returning we found Rosalind MacDonald endeavoring to convince our host how much more beneficial it would be to himself, if she carried out some engineering idea or other of hers. Ralph seemed very interested. Ethel Klein and Katherine Goettler, our gym teachers, had been up before the rest and started the day by playing a set of tennis. John Leppla -' and Blair Powell, chemists in the employ of the government, had the courts next and a few of the early risers gathered around to watch the combat. Among the onlookers we discovered Augusta Max- wet, teacher at good old Carrick, and Violet Davies, a social service worker, deeply interested in an argument concerning who would win the match. After breakfast a crowd gathered at the first tee on the golf course. Hilda Grimm and Helen Hoetzel were playing Marshall Smith and Harold Mantle. The betting was in favor of the former who, it seems, are connected with the same exclu- sive firm, Helen as a designer, and Hilda as foreign buyer. Marshall has followed in his father's foot- steps and is head of a great cleaning establishment while Harold Mantle has undertaken the work of a civil engineer. Among the gallery spectators were Kathryn Brubach, an interior decorator and her secretary, Helen Gunderman. William Zamblaus- kas, a prominent lawyer, we noticed in deep con- versation with Ruth Grabowski, one of our well known dramatists. That evening we were entertained by Edward Rockhill who has followed in the footsteps of Richard Halliburton. The far away places of the earth were made interesting to us by the beauty with which they were portrayed, and we listened to the wonderous tales with great interest. The days had flown swiftly and now it was time to leave. The reunion had been a wonderful adventure and it will live with us, a most colorful memory of what our classes could really accom- plish.

The plays finally gown at an afternoon tea. Art Lewis, in the role selected by the coach and com- of the villain, took sides against Marshall Smith, , mittee, after extensive reading the girl's father, in the coal strike and tried hard to and careful thought, were The Romancers by Edmond Rostand, The Pot Boilers by Alice Gerstenberg, and Fourteen by Alice Gerstenberg. They were given in the auditorium on the nights of November 22 and 23. In The Romancers , Dorothy Degenhardt played the role of Sylvette on Thursday evening and on Friday the part was enacted by Hilda Grim. Harold Mantle, in the role of the lover, played his part well and touched the hearts of all present by his sincerity and passion. Elmer Keller, Bergamin, and father of Percinet, and John Schmieler as Pas- quinot, father of Sylvette, kept the audience aroused and interested at their idea of pretended enmity in order to induce the children to marry. Straforel, in the role of a bravo, was very well por- trayed by Ed. Rockhill. The swordsmen who aid- ed in the abduction of Sylvette were Davis Young, Albert Wolfe and Howard Schweppe. The Pot Boilers kept those who were present in continual outbursts of laughter at the amusing situations which arose over William Zamblauskas, in the role of Sud, an author, having a dress rehearsal. Miss Ivory, the heroine, was portrayed by Elizabeth Walls who played opposite Bob win the girl. Victor Matteson, an aspiring young author, was permitted to watch the rehearsal in order to get ideas about play writing. Fourteen was an amusing comedy played by three girls. The part of the hostess of a dinner was well portrayed by Rose Ball, while the role of the sweet, demure daughter was played by Violet Davies. Helen Hoeltzel, in the role of the maid, proved quite efficient and capable. The reader, Kathryn Brubach, filled her re- sponsible position very well. Dorothy Pritchard and Blair Powell faithfully and efficiently carried out their numerous duties as stage managers. Carrie Hodgson, Dorothy Staley, John Leppla, Nelson Rockhill, and Jessie Merrill took the responsibility of the business management, while Esther Sexauer, Marshall Smith, Nelson Williams, and Anthony Fanzo all aided in the scenery, costuming and other work necessary to make the plays the success they were. To Miss Clark the class owes much for her splendid work in the coaching of the plays and her help in making them successful. To the l2B's, who acted as ushers, the Seniors also extend their sincere thanks. -4 ., .Z Z 1929 Tl-IE CAIQIQICIKTED 1929 THE NEW POOR Wasn't it thrillin'?

The contest- ants chosen were: Virginia Hammond, Arthur Schade, Freda Frey, Mary Jane O'Connor, Paul Schade, and Ross Peden. These speakers gave in- teresting as well as instructive speeches. Virginia Hammond, who spoke on The Citizen, His Duties and Privileges Under the Constitution, tnd Arthur Schade, who spoke on The Advan- tages of a Rigid Over a Flexible Constitution, were chosen as winners, with Freda Frey as altern- ate. The judges for the school contest were: Miss Orr, Mr. Williams, of King's School of Oratory, and Reverand Watson of the Concord Presbyterian Church. Miss Harris coached the contestants and also conducted the preliminary eliminations. On March 12, Arthur and Virginia met with the school representatives South Hills and Langley High Schools at the Knoxville Methodist Church, in order that the South Hills District Representa- K Vl',,.,..--- I-..... i, ix - tive might be chosen. Eva Platukas, a Senior of Langley High School and Arthur Schade, of Car- rick High School, won places for the city cham- pionship meet. On March 21, the representatives from Carrick, Langley, Perry, Fifth Avenue, Schenley, Taylar Allderdice, David B. Oliver, and Westinghouse High Schools assembled in Carnegie Music Hall, North Side, to compete for the city championship. These contestants represented the North Side, South Side, East End and Central Districts of Pittsburgh. Allan Beatty of Perry High School. was victorious. The judges of this contest were: Hon. Sylvester Snee, Judge of the Allegheny County Court: David Gustafson, from the Car- negie Institution of Technology: and Miss Ethel Fennel, from the University of Pittsburgh. These judges applied two tests to the orations which were given: first, composition, and second, delivery -each counting equally. Although Carrick High School was not victori- ous, yet, Arthur deserves to be highly commended for the effort and interest which he displayed in the contest for representing our school so well in the oratorical contest.

The Blue and Gold grid- ders compiled a mediocre record: '-T--' winning two games, losing four and tieing two, out of an eight game schedule. A week before the opening of the Fall term a large squad assembled for the initial practice ses- sion. Several days later the squad was augmented by several late-comers and with their appearance conditioning began in earnest. Carrick scored its first victory by running rough- shod over St. Marys to gain a 19-0 victory. Play- ing an inspired brand of football they trounced Langley 20-6: but the following week had to be contented with a 6-6 tie against Pitcairn. The Climax of an in-and-out season was reached when Carrick startled the scholastic sport fandom by decisively outplaying South Hills, Section 11 champions, to gain a moral victory. Two after season honors accorded the 1928 football team are worthy of special mention. The first was the selection of Captain Jack Schricker on the Pittsburgh Press all-scholastic team. Port, brilliant end, was awarded a position on the second eleven while Williams received honorable mention as half-back. The second incident was the novel rewarding of the football squad when the Carrick Alumni Association honored the gridders with a fine football banquet. The letter men for 1928 are: Schricker Lcap- tainl, Bubenheim Qcaptain-electj, Williams, Far- rel, Lanz, Port, Beery, Rockhill, Kashuba, Suttner, Hahne, and Al. Smith QManagerj.

Coach Replogle and the members of the squad worked earnestly to give Carrick a winning basket- ball team, but owing to the fact that they were forced to share time in the gym with the girls' class teams, they were unable to obtain sufficient practice periods. However, in spite of this obstacle, the team won six victories. The first victory was gained in a non-league game when Carrick trounced Bethel by a one-sided score. Carrick's second victory was registered at the expense of Allegheny in a thrilling contest which was decided in an overtime period. The victories each over Langley and Allegheny Vocational completed Carrick's list of triumphs. Perry, Oliver, and South Hills each succeeded in defeating Carrick twice while Allegheny avenged its defeat by trouncing Carrick in their second engagement. There were six players who performed especially well during the season. Captain Farrell, Port, and Suttner played consistent games and were import- ant factors in the harder games of the season. Al- though he only played half of the season, Port was awarded a guard position on the second all-Section II team. Bauer, Kase, and Schmieler also played an excellent brand of basketball. The letter men of this year are: Captain Farrell, Port. Kase, Bauer, Captain-elect Suttner, Schmie- ler, and Bildstein, Manager. The record of the team this year is as follows: Carrick 27 Bethel 7 Carrick 21 Perry 24 Carrick 3 0 Allegheny 25 Carrick 27 Oliver 29 Carrick 24 Langley I4 Carrick 29 Allegheny Vocational ZZ Carrick 15 South Hills 23 Carrick 18 Allegheny 3 5 Carrick 7 Perry 45 Carrick 28 Langley 26 Carrick 23 Allegheny Vocational Z0 Carrick 16 Oliver 29 Carrick 18 South Hills Z8 1929 THE CAIQIQICIKTEIQ IQZQ l BASEBALL HE 1928 baseball season at Car rick Hrgh ended with the team s standing showing five victories these figures do not indicate a championship team the season was fairly successful with the Blue and Gold play- ing brilliant ball at times to gain victory. After two weeks of training Coach Lyons pre- sented a nine that was subject to little change after the season had gotten under way. Carrick opened the season against Allegheny Vocational, winning by a 4-l score. During the remainder of the season Carrick garnered victories by defeating Allegheny Vocational a second time, trouncing Allegheny and Oliver, and ekeing out a 7-6 victory from Etna. Coach Lyons was handicapped by the dearth of pitching material and during the latter part of the season Lonergan was overworked due to this fact. However, the success of the coming season is in I I against six defeats. Although doubt as Coach Lyons has lost thirteen players from last year's squad: among them being five lettermen. Several of the vacant positions, however, will be filled by the reserves of the 1928 season. The main weakness, at present, seems to be same as that of last year: namely, the lack of experienced pitchers and unless several prospects are uncovered during the practice sessions, Coach Lyons will have to revise his starting lineup quite frequently to put a capable pitcher on the mound. The remaining lettermen: Schricker fcaptainj, Dales, Suttner, Doyle and Price have had previous experience and will, no doubt, form the nucleus of the 1929 team. Carrick High's loyalty to athletics has overcome such difficulties in the past and a large squad of candidates will somewhat lighten Coach Lyons' burdens. At all events, Carrick High is assured of a diamond representative that will hold its own with the other City League entrants.

As the greater part of last year's fine team was lost by -Ll graduation, Coach Wehrle was forced to build up an almost entirely new team from a limited amount of material. The team which he finally selected was fairly formidable, but lacking in experience. As a result, the swimmers were defeated in their first live meets against the other high schools of this district, which boasted of more experienced teams. Carrick met its first de- feat at the hand of Perry in Carrick's pool. The meet was closely contested at all times, the North Side school finally winning by a 27-23 score. The South High tank-men were Carrick's next op- ponents and our boys went down to defeat. The score was South-3l, Carrick-19. In their third meet of the season the Carrick swimmers were the victims of the powerful Langley team, who won a 34 to 16 decision. In the meet following this, the Carrick team was barely nosed out by Oliver High by the score 26 to 24. Carrick's fifth defeat was administered by Wilkinsburg. The older and more experienced borough team outclassed the Carrick lads and won easily by a 37-13 score. However, in spite of these defects, the work of one Carrick swimmer has featured in practically every meet. Captain Joe Schmieler has proved him- self to be one of the best, as well as one of the most versatile swimmers in city high school circles. He has been leading scorer for his team in practic- ally every meet of the season. He has few equals in this district in the breast stroke event and his work in the diving events has also been of a high caliber. Schmieler has another year of competition and should gain considerable recognition as a member of next year's team. Although the team has had a poor season, Car- rick has excellent prospects for next year. Coach Wehrle has shown much foresight in placing a large number of sophomores on this year's team and these lads have gained experience in competi- tion which will prove invaluable next year. This plan will give Carrick a seasoned team which should meet with success. RONALD NESTOR. 4-1. O the disappointment of many other was played at home. The four different J 1' 1. , . f M' 1 t .

Class teams were substituted to take the place of the varsity team. The Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors each had a team. These teams each consisted of six regular members and about three substitutes. Inter- class games were played to discover which was the best squad. Beside playing several games between the different grades, each team played two games outside of school. One of the outside games was played at an opposing city high school, while the schools challenged were: Langley, Perry, South Hills, and Herron Hill. The Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen played these teams in the order mentioned. , Each girl who played three-fourths of the games scheduled received a numeral. These numerals rep- resented the year in which the individual was to graduate. s Miss Helen Paul, and Alberta Kording both de- serve congratulations, for the splendid coaching on the part of the former, and the excellent manage- ment on the part of the latter. SWIMMING NTHUSIASM ran high at the be- ginning of the semester, when Coach Waterman called for try- outs for the girls' swimming team. The girls showed their in- tentions to make this a successful season by faithfully attending the practices. The Juniors were especially fortunate in that they took fourth place in the City Championship Meet. The relay team composed of Martha Sauerberger, Lula Stilley, Grace Neiderberger, and Virginia Cottrell won third place in the meet. Grace Neiderberger also won fourth place in diving. The Juniors eligible for letters were: Martha Sauerberger, Jewel Braun, Virginia Cottrell, and Sybil Gikling. The Senior team tried equally as hard as the Juniors, but were not quite so successful. The lack of material was possibly one of their drawbacks. The Senior Varsity Letter girls were: Jeanne Truter, Helen Dunker, Abigail Kirk, Catherine Rief, Catherine Butler, Letitia Schmidt, Ellen Stanton and Rose Marie Demestichas. Considerable credit is due Rose Marie Demes- tichas, Manager, and Miss Waterman, Coach, for their untiring efforts which were responsible for the success of the teams. With the valuable experiences of this'year, the teams hope to be more successful next season than they have been since they first entered the swim- ming contests three years ago. VCLLEY BALL ---- HIS year, as was the case last year, Carrick High will not have a Varsity Volley Ball team. Class teams were substituted in the same manner as in basketball. The intra-school teams will con- sist of nine regulars and three substitutes from each of the classes. These teams will play three games in school. The two teams scoring the most points will play an elimination game to decide which team will be the school champions. The other city high schools that will oppose ours are: Langley, Perry, South Hills and Herron Hill. 'J-,1',,.. To receive a varsity letter, one must be on the team which has the largest score at the end of the season. This means that quite a bit of struggling and careful playing must be done in order to be the victorious team. The remaining teams will re- ceive the second letters-those made up of a C and a numeral. Any girl who has received a letter within the last year for volley ball is not permitted to participate in the intra-school games but is al- lowed to take part in the inter-school contests. The success of the teams is due to the manager of the teams, Katherine Goettler, and the ine coaching of Miss Waterman. lf is .-11 I 9 lx XIXX ffv XZ 1 l. ll A A Hdllzkgpgq f .i. fr .

The Council is .- made up of representatives from each class, who were selected by the faculty mem- bers of the Council. These students were selected for their reliability, good judgment and qualities of leadership which made them adaptable for the work of the Council. The Council decided to adopt a Student Activity Ticket which would entitle the student to attend all athletic activities, all social activities, Senior Class Plays, as well as to receive copies of the A'Carrickter and the Carrickulum. The price of the ticket is three dollars, while the average cost of the activities listed above is estimated at about nine dollars. The aims of the Council areze First-to place the student activities of the school on a high plane, Second-to furnish the neccssary funds to carry on the various activities of the school, and Third-to train the students in the business management of their school activities. The following students are members of the Student Activity Council:- Paul Schade, llB Freda Frey, llB Julius Munster, 10A Dorothy Schmidt, 10A Ruth Donnally, 10B Frank Hillgartner, 9A William Closs, 9B Hannah Wagner, 8A Mary Cook, 8B Sylvester Steyer, 7A Elmer Keller, Pres.

It is issued every two weeks. the average circulation being about eight hundred papers, although as many as twelve hundred copies have been issued in one pub- lication. The Carrickulum is very efficiently sponsored by Miss C. Gloria Paul, who has charge of the literary department, and Mr. H. A. Dittmar, the business sponsor. The sponsors and the staff work hard to give the high school a newsy, beneficial paper and besides doing this: the members of the staff are benefitted by receiving a practical know- ledge of newspaper work. The Carrickulum, be- cause of its value to the school, is one of the major activities and is a worthwhile organization for a student to be affiliated with.

One of the best musical organiza- tions, that a high school can boast of in the form of instrumental music, is the high school orchestra. An orchestra creates in the students of a school higher musical ideals than any other musical or- ganization in the high school curriculum. ' IUSIC has been placed high on the As the orchestra grows or expands more mem- bers are induced to join and thus, the organization becomes richer in the number and variety of in- struments. In this way it may approach a sym- phonic balance and proportion. A symphony or- chestra contains from fifty to seventy-five pieces. Of course, it takes time to create a symphony or even a small symphony orchestra. The Carrick High School Orchestra is about five years old and really only in its infancy. But, with the number of new instruments furnished to the school by the Board of Education, and the many students interested in orchestra work that will be entering the Senior High school from the Junior High, our school has a chance of forming quite a large orchestra that may some day approach the symphonic goal. - Our High School Orchestra was organized in 1924, under the direction of Mr. Lyons, whose efficient leadership enabled the members to become capable of rendering many line classical selections. At present the orchestra is under the capable direction of Mr. Mcllroy and has been a very active and growing organization for the past three years. Without the harmonious strains of our orchestra, our assemblies, commencements, class plays, and other school activities, would not have been nearly so attractive or interesting. So here's to a better and greater orchestra in Carrick High School in the future.

This band was organ- ized in September, 1927, under -ll the direction of Mr. Joseph Rep- logle, teacher of music in Carrick High School. The success of the band was largely dependent up- on Mr. Replogle who worked steadfastly and earn- estly to help achieve the position the band now holds. It is a club of prominence and importance of which the whole school is justly proud. The band furnishes the music at the football and basket- ball games. This serves as an incentive to better work on the part of the team, as well as inspiring loyalty on the part of the student body. The band has also given some delightful and well worth while programs in assemblies. The members of the band do not have their complete uniforms. Many clubs have contributed money towards buying them, however. The Oper- etta, The Nautical Knot, which was given in 1928 by students of Carrick High, was a means of obtaining some additional money for band outfits. Another operetta is to be given this year for the same purpose. The members of the band are working at a great disadvantage since they are given only two periods a week for practice. Nevertheless, the boys are en- thusiastic and are willing to work hard.
