You see, God, they told me You didn't exist, And like a fool I believed all this. Last night from a shell hole I saw Your sky, I figured right then they had told me a lie. Had I taken time to see things You made, I'd have known they weren't calling a spade I wonder, God, if You'd shake my hand, Somehow, I feel that You will understand. Funny I had to come to this hellish place, Before I had time to see Your face. Well, I guess there isnlt much more to say, But Ilm sure glad, God, I met you today. I guess the Zero hour will soon be here, But I'm not afraid since I know You're near. The signal! Well, God, I'll have to go, I like You lots, this I want You to know. Look now, this will be a horrible fight, Who knows, I may come to Your house tonigh Though I wasn't friendly to you before, I wonder, God, if you'd wait at Your door. Look, I'm crying! Me! Shedding tears! I wish I had known you these many years. Well, I have to go now, God, Goodbye! Strange, since I met You, I'm not afraid to d 'nf a spade I. ie ALFRED P.

This one Whose going left us lonely, Is scaling heights undreamed of yore, And guided on by Love's unfolding, Has gone upstairs and shut the door. -Author Unknown uWE'LL HONOR YOU FOREVER, WE'LL BE LOYAL ,TIL WE DIE9' c'We'll honor you forever, We,ll he loyal 'till we die-3' ln the near-yet distant future, VVhen we've all gone different ways, We'll remember our friends and teachers And all our high school days. We'll remember how We scorned it, Yet if some unkind Word were said, How quickly we'd defend it, Only strengthening the loyalty thread. All these thoughts of Schoolday pleasures Will hold a share of high degree Within the hearts of all of us, Throughout eternity. --Loir Kinkeacl I f ll I1 U f I ,-Pf 5' Wx WJ, y ! 5'zd2 ,f 2 nf ,149 'Lf ja , A ', V!

The activities included two tri-school dances, football and basketball games and track meets, and an afternoon and evening May-day celebration.

There were over three hundred present including the players, their parents, league members, football coaches and friends of the league. Bob Higgins, football coach of Pennsylvania State College, was the guest speaker. The league is accomplishing its purpose of promoting good sportsmanship and friendly relations among the people of the three communities. Night football games have created much interest and have drawn large crowds. The tri-school dances also have met with popular approval. The conference functions under the leadership of an executive board composed of three students and five adults from each community. The members are: CARRICK Ralph R.

Carrick's basketball quintet concluded l945,s season on the losing end, finishing with a record of 7 wins and 11 losses. Under the excellent guid- ance of Coach Ralph R. Zahniser and Jerry Hiles, Captain, the hoopsters responded as well as could be expected, considering their loss of Bill Colligan and Bill Bakos at graduation, and Walter Dukewich to the Army. High score honors go to Jerry Hiles, who had 197 points, and Al D'Abruzzo, who accounted for 114 points. The managers, Joseph Starzynski and Bill Marculaitis, did a Fine job of making the team toe the line drawn by Coach Zahniser.

Under one of the most trying difficulties a swimming team has ever had to face, Carrick's mermen went through the 1945 swimming season without a swimming pool. Needed repairs required that the pool be closed. While Carrick had the material for a fairly successful season, their lack of practice severely handicapped them. Coached by Mr. Ned Replogle and managed once more by Clifford Barton, the team was paced by Captain George Murphy, backstrokerg Bill Johnson, backstrokerg Tom Morse, freestylerg and the relay team of Paul Brecht, Dick Lips, Byron Williams, and Jim Lanz which went to the regional qualifying meet at Slippery Rock. Unlike last year's team, such wartime events as rifle relay were discontinued.

Things went rough for the diamond men this year, as there hadn't been a baseball team since 1940, and there was a big question of supplies, equipment, and a coach. Captain Cyril Lamberger took all this into con- sideration and, with the help of Mr. Ned Replogle, coach, and the team in general, finally built the team into shape. Many of the boys played for the South Hills Sandlot teams. Ellsworth Hamel and Edwin Armour did a great job of keeping the players in true form. The schedule was as follows: May May May May May May 1-Baldwin, away 4-South Hills, home 8-Baldwin, home 11-Peabody, away 14-South Hills, away 17-Peabody, home due to The original City League schedule was eliminated this year coaching difficulties, but a supplementary schedule was introduced.

With a record of three wins and five losses, Carrick's soccer team had a mediocre season in 1944. For the second year the team was coached by Mr. William C. Hulley. While the team was a far-cry from the booters of the preceding season, it was due mainly to a lack of experienced players. Not one player remained from the squad of 1943. The team was led by Captain Howard Seese and managed by James Hawthorne. The other lettermen were as follows: Ernest Faber Charles Maiden Alan Pingelski Robert Linhart Kenneth Richardson Donald Ewart Sebastian Minsterman Max Pokorski Lawrence White Edward Gall Robert Roenigk Grant Galbraith Richard Gibbon Jerry McCormick Norman Scherer GIRLS' SPORTS , , , Even though girls' athletics are placed somewhat in the background by the wider variety of sports offered to the boys, there is, nevertheless, a great deal of enthusiasm shown by the girls for their physical education program. Miss Evelyn Spindler and Miss Helen H. Paul, who have charge of senior and junior girls respectively, plan excellent opportunities for the girls to compete in intra-mural contests. The fall season began for the senior girls with intensive field hockey training. Each girl learned how to handle her stick and ball and then worked to perfect long, hard drives and steady shifting. Dribbling was also a necessary asset. Meanwhile, the junior girls were engaged in exciting dodge bat ball tournaments. They also organized two worth-while soccer teams captained by Hope Mervosh and Anna Kovac. Next on the list of events came basketball, which was played during November and December. Five basketball teams, captained by Lois Kinkead, Betty Beck, Iris Jeanne Koch, Joan Johnson, and Martha Litzinger, were organized to compete against each other every Thursday after school. In an especially exciting final game Martha Litzinger,s team defeated Joan Johnson's group by a score of 4 to 1. The winning team was composed of Virginia Lehner, Audrey McCann, Florence Litzinger, jean Menegheni, Betty ejvan Phillipsson, Betty Roberts, Bernadette Short, Dolores Stock, and Martha Litzinger, the captain. Volleyball and badminton were enjoyed in February and March. The six volleyball teams were captained by Audrey Schmautz, Diane Milko- vich, Jean Hustwit, Ruth Hemans, Iris Jeanne Koch, and Martha Litz- inger. The four finalists in the badminton contest were Dorothy Graham, Patricia Bowman, Gailey Bedorf, and Suzanne Greaves. Paddle tennis, tennis, and mushball finished a well-rounded program. These activities have done a great deal in developing strong bodies, keen minds, and a realization of the aims of good sportsmanship.

Annual The task of producing Carrick's yearbook is assigned to this staff as an outside activity. No meetings are held during school hours and all of the preparation of the material is completed in after school meetings. Since the War began, shortage of materials and labor in both the printing and engraving fields have changed the quality and size of most school annuals. The Work of our group consisted of collecting the necessary material and writing the story of the year 1944-1945 in Carrick High School. William Laur designed the cover and all art work in the book. Lois Kinkead contributed the original poems. The Carrickter staff includes members of the February and June Classes and six members of the 12-B class.

School Paper Carrick High's monthly newspaper, the Carrickulum, has now completed its twenty-Hrst year of publication. The newspaper had been a bi-weekly paper for years, but because of shortages of mate- rials due to the present war, the paper has been reduced to a monthly issue. First published twenty-one years ago in the Hill Top Record, the Carrickulum was begun as a single sheet. It has now expanded to a four page, student written, student edited publication. Miss Mary E. Walker, sponsor, selects and instructs new members in the fundamentals of journalism during the daily fourth period class. The Carrickulum is the proud possessor of five Xylon cups awarded by Xylon, Honorary Women's Fraternity of the University of Pitts- burgh in 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, and 1941 under the sponsorship of Miss C. Gloria Paul who is now in the Waves. In the fall semester, the four editors were Raphael Maher, first page, Rosemarie Geiger, feature page, Joe Stein, sports page, Joan Johnson, fourth page and Marilyn Lewis, business manager. After the staff reorganized in the spring the newly appointed editors were ojan Johnson, first page, Dorothy Gandelot, feature page, Joe Stein, sports page, Lois Taylor, fourth page and Marilyn Lewis, business manager. UNIOR MISS,'... Senior Play Another great success was added to Carrickls long list of theatrical performances on November 16 and 17, when the graduating classes presented Sally Benson's popular comedy Junior Missv. Produced under the direction of Miss Marion Clark, the play provided fun and laughter for young and old. As both the February and June graduating classes were represented in the cast, it was necessary to double cast a few roles. This three act comedy centered around the mischievous Judy Graves fRuth Lyons, Pearl Kelloj and her long suffering family. When Judy conceives the idea that her father CRay Hahnj is in love with Ellen Curtis CAnna Bell, Jean Walker, his employer's daughter, the fun begins. Uncle Willis CFrank Zigon, Jack Ewartj, brother of Mrs. Graves CHelen Milkovich, Ruth Surdickj unknowingly.an estab- lished criminaln, is soon involved in a love affair with Ellen. A disapproving father J. B. Curtis CGeorge Smileyj, a willing and helpful maid, Hilda CJoan Johnson, Marjorie Fletcherj, and an interesting sister Lois CMariellen Baue, Ruth Degenl with her many beaus provided an amusing evening for all. It is agreed by all, that the class play was on of Carrick's Big Nights. STAGE CREW... BusyBoys One of the hardest working and the least lauded organizations in the school is the Stage Crew. Under the able guidance of Mr. Harry Dittmar, the scene shifters prepare and repair the stage for class plays, family nights, operettas, assemblies and commencements. H Shifting scenery is not the only kind of work the stage crew performs. Such items as painting back drops, repairing curtains, replacing burnt-out stage lights and testing ropes are a few more of the many jobs that they execute. Everything must be planned to the minutest detail for a theatrical performance to run smoothly and the stage crew can always be depended upon to perform this task to the utmost of their ability. In 1944, the position of president was held by Almer Hemans and Bill Laur held the office of vice-president.' In 1945, Bill Laur became the president and James Beer was elected vice-president. The remaining members of the crew are: Cliff Barton, secretary-treasurer, George Murphy, John Hunter, Bert Johnson, George Karnbauer, Dick Lips, William Hemans, Tom Connolly and Earl Colteryahn. hlunior Miss w Lusl Stags Cr:-w . . .

The club is under the capable guidance of Mr. George Henning. Last fall the club sponsored the buying of an amphibious truck known as a Ducky, and in the spring the buying of three Weaselsn. To promote projects they prepared a Dr. I. program for assembly. They also had a speaker for the Seventh War Loan Drive. No officers are elected but each of the twelve members volunteers for any job he feels he is able to fulfill. 4 Carrick High School students have bought a total of 525,620.90 worth of War Bonds and Stamps this school year. Their savings have purchased four held ambu- lances, a Fairchild training plane and an amphibian duck. War Stamps have been sold in Carrick High School since December S, 1941. ACTIVITY COUNCIL . .. Planners Increased extra curricular activities have increased the duties of the Activity Council. Its members, made up of representatives from each homeroom, take on the job of financing the schoolls activities. By the sale of activities tickets, produc- tion of class play and operetta, and promotion of sports activities has been able to allot larger sums to the many organizations operating within the school. Under the able guidance of Mr. C. Coons, faculty adviser, with the help of Miss Helen Schmidt, the council has helped to make the year a huge success by holding dances, and assisting in the many school projects which produce funds for activity uses.

Each semester the club takes on a different project. From February to June the girls worked on any piece of knitting they wished to do, but during the semester of September to February, the club as a whole worked on dolls made from yarn supplied by the Red Cross. Some of the dolls were made to represent Spaniards with gay sombreros, while others were made in the shape of little girls with colorful pigtails. Several of the girls made dolls to g ve to their friends for Christmas gifts. 'lhe club promotes interest in handwork of all types which will be useful and pleasant to learn although much of the time is devoted to knitting.

Boys One of the most active clubs in Carrick High School, the Senior Hi-Y Club has contributed unselfishly to the advancement of the spirit of sportsmanship in this school. Under the able sponsorship of Mr. Thomas Reniers, the club has been operating three semesters since its revival in February, 1944. A two-thirds vote and a successful run of the initiation gauntlet are necessary requirements to be fulfilled before a boy may become a member.

Under the sponsorship of Miss Elizabeth Makin, those who are interested in library work find many useful jobs to do, while learning about the library. The members learn to shelve and repair books and prepare books and pamphlets for the various classes. Every Friday they do these jobs and help Miss Makin with the regular routine. Each member takes a pledge on which the club is based. Every semester the Library Club has a quiz program to familiarize the other students in the school with the library system and much interest has been shown in this plan.

During the fall semester the long awaited exchange scrapbook from England arrived and club periods were spent examining and discussing it. Plans were made to display the book throughout the school so that all the students might see it. Beside this main activity, the club members packed boxes of food. One was sent to an underprivileged family as a Christmas present and several others went to servicemen. The club members also sent pocket books to friends in the service and corresponded with foreign pals. A special scrapbook was compiled for future reference containing all articles and clippings about the club. Cooperating with the Dramatics Club, the Books- Across-the-Sea Club helped in making up the performers for the operetta. A visit to the Pitt nationality rooms and a picnic supper wound up the events of the spring term.

The enthusiasm of the juniors is shown by the large mem bership. Each semester the group becomes more select, due to the large number of applicants. Many students in the Junior High School do not have an opportunity to par ticipate in musical activities since there are no elective classes provided for them Thus, they find the Choristers interesting and enjoyable. A few members assisted in the production of The Forest Princev as members of committees The purpose of the club is to sing for pleasure and recreation as Well as to con tribute singers for programs prepared by juniors.

FOOTBALL CLUBH. Team - Team - Team The Football Club is made up of forty-Five senior boys who are interested in football. They meet every Friday under the sponsorship of Coach Ralph R. Zahniser. The club was organized for the purpose of stimulating interest in football and teaching the boys the different phases of the game. They take up the finer points of the game such as the theory, development, and technique of blocking, tackling, kicking, passing and pass receivingf After lengthy class room discussions of these points, the principles are tried on the gridiron. When these points are further developed, the boys are ready to do the actual plays used in the game. The Coach submits his ideas on the proper method of running the plays and the boys and the coach discuss hovif these plays can be improved. When all agree on the plays the boys once again experiment on the gridiron to perfect them. Because of this club, Coach Ralph Zahniser has a head start when the season rolls around in that he knows to what extent he can depend on each boy in up- holding his part of the game.

Boartes was formed. During the semester the boys tried their hand at preparing emergency meals, mending clothes, and preparing balanced diets. They were also given some special classes in nutrition. Although the boys had a little trouble keeping the ingredients in the cooking bowl and after one special lesson they were a sight, the finished product rivaled anything turned out in a girls cooking class. The boys also were taught how to make biscuit and cookies. Club Officers were: Edward Maxton, President Robert Evans, Vice-President Raymond Malsch, Secretary-Treasurer Junior Leaders . .

It also gives those boys who are not able to schedule regular chorus classes an opportunity to sing with the chorus. The club has used a variety of music, including folk songs, sacred music, spirituals and popular numbers. The interest of the boys is centered in presenting many types of music which add to their musical experience.

Officers for the entire club year were: Joan Orbin, President Joan Johnson, Vice-President Betty Bour, Secretary-Treasurer Lois Kinkead, Assistant Treasurer PHOTOGRAPHY.. The Photography Club, sponsored and founded by Mr Ned L Replogle, is one of the most interesting clubs in the school. Activities of the club were hampered very severely this year because of an acute shortage of film and even more so in the case of printing and enlarging paper. The purpose of the club is to teach the fundamentals of the hobby to the beginner and to teach the more advanced person in enlarging, copying, mixing of developing solutions, mounting, Hash photography, the value of lighting, composition of pictures, how to select scenes to take pictures and how to arrange table top photos. No officers were elected to lead the Weekly meetings but everything was done in an informal but co-operative manner. Members of the club from February to June were: Richard Langkamp, Mariellen Baur, Cecil Tremaine, Frank Zigon, Joseph Schumaker, Robert Green, Bruce Andrews, Walter Evans, Jerry McCormick, Mary Recken, Norman Ross, Dorothy Seidel and Bill Weber.
