Throughout this the work done by classes, clubs, and organ- izations plans this peacetime life.fThe frontispiece is symbolic of this ideal and the editorial contributions, embellishments, illustrations, and several pages of departmental pictures carry further the development of the theme. The book is replete with pictures of the administration and faculty, every class, club organization, sports -and music. Panels of the January and June, i945 Seniors dominate the first section of the Annual, and several snapshot pages indicate the nine divisions of the Annual- lntroduction, Administration, January '45 Seniors, June '45 Seniors, glasses, Athletics, Music, Clubs, and Organizations, Advertising and naps. The Annualis a complete history of the school and a lasting record in word and picture of what Chaney and its valiant sons and daughters and faculty members are doing on the Battle Front and on the Home Front to terminate World War ll and to win this fight for Peace. Long after peace prevails and the selfishness which prompted this world con- flict have been destroyed, the owner of this book will treasure its possession. An added pride in the Chaney Annual is gained from the fact that it is prepared, financed, and circulated entirely by the Chaney Journal- ism Department and printed in the Chaney Print Shop. Photographs, engraving, photoliths, and binding are done commercially. Page Four - wc , 44' ' W' J 0 1 x 'Nu .,.f 'A-1' .N 5v!1'l7V9 fV I WQ11- kj 1 2 W-56.4 ,V , V A GMI?

And with that realization has come an equally grim determination to preserve these ideals, and Chaney, always in the vanguard, has given generously, and with heart break- ing sacrifice, to the struggle on the Battlefront. Nearly 2,000 students and four faculty members proudly wear the uniform of the armed forces. Many wear the Purple Heart. Others suffer in enemy prison camps.-Many more have given the one life they had for their country. Blue and gold stars gleam from nearly every window on the West Side. The war has penetrated every heart and every home and on the Homefront all are engaged in some kind of war work, all are co-operating with government rules and regulations, and all are contributing generously in the purchase of war bonds and stamps. . ln grateful recognition of the great contribution made by the young men and women of Chaney serving on the Battlefront and to their parents who have given their sons and daughters, those on the Homefront, confident that the Peace for which we are all Fighting will long endure, dedicate this book, the June i945 Chaney Annual.

CHANEY CHANEY IN WAR AND PEACE In the period between September 1926, when over 400 students from South High and 500 from other schools, were transferred from schools that were well equipped and large enough to offer desired courses, and arrived at Chaney, which was really not completed, to the date of the infamous attack on Pearl Harbor, Chaney has grown over 10021. The auditorium and cafeteria seatings were not in at the time of the opening. Pianos, curtains, and other equipment were installed and found ready use. At one time 2,320 students were enrolled. Then two portables, and the balcony vestibule were used as class rooms. The athletic field was prepared, and a new gymnasium was added. Friends increased. Support in many ways was forthcoming. Since Pearl Harbor the improvements have been greatest in other than material things. The Evaluation by 30 visitors showed the strengths and weaknesses. A tradition that Chaney is a school of action and opportunity began to grow. Today the school is recognized because of a worthy product and a spirit of sacrifice both on the home front and in the service. The Chaney of the future will be determined by the national and local situa- tions. Most essential will be a still more improved teaching. More money will be needed to attract the best teachers possible. An attitude of more efficient study and a real desire for an educaion must be instilled into the student body if the increased competition, which will likely follow the war, is to be met successfully. Increased equipment, larger playing space, dropping of unessential courses and adding more modern ones, are a few needs of the future. As the alumni of the school are prepared to meet the requirements of the positions for which they are selected, so will the reputation of the school be heralded in the coming peace as it was before Pearl Harbor and since.

Siigicrmteiidcrit oi ecncoll C x lr K tschcne Stutliu The Challenge to Youth When this War is over, the battles for peace will begin. If we are wise, we shall plan now the fight for a just and an enduring peace. XVhen our boys entered World War I, they were told that they were to engage in a war to end wars and to malce the world safe for democracy. How empty those slogans sound today! We won the First World War, but we lost the peace. How can we avoid a repetition of that tragedy and malce impossible a third world conflict? We cannot have a lasting peace merely by wishing for it. The fight for peace cannot be won by enslaving our enemies. A peace based on hatred and revenge cannot endure. Justice demands that the crim- inals who were responsible for starting this war must be punished, but we shall not bring about permanent peace by attempting to exterminate the conquered peoples. What then can we do? High school students will not have a place at the peace table but they can prepare them- selves to do their part in defending, preserving, and promoting those American ideals of liberty and justice which will insure a lasting peace in the world. The American high school youth of today should be, and can be, the leaders of the world tomorrow if they will prove themselves,worthy of that leadership. Be ready to meet the challenge! ' I Page Seven DR. C. W. RICKSECKER Principal Thrift Insures Future Security Members of the Graduating Classes of 1945: America's greatness, we hear quite frequently, can be attributed to the sturdy and sacrificing life of our pioneers. The baclcground of their spirit was based undoubtedly upon a frugal and thrifty form of life. And in their simple life they were happy. The will to save was both a private and public matter. Their desire to help their country, rather than secure something from it, produced the spirit of our colonists that made possible our basic instruments of government. Propet' investment in energy and finance enlarged our nation to its present size. In peace and war the determination to malce the most of our initiative, saving for the rainy day, laying by for the generation to come and spending wisely have been common aims of most of our people. More recently, however, there has been a trend from the attitude of thrift to one of paternalism. From the desire to be self-responsible too many are attempting to force the government, regardless of party, to carry their responsibility. True it is that in an industrial community there needs to be forms of social security, but if all were to save for the time of need, little help would be needed from an over- burdened public treasury. To the members of the graduating classes, and to the student body, of which you have been a part, the appeal is made to save all possible, invest with care your energy and time, and to the extent that you are not a leaner, barring certain mis- fortunes, will you find happiness. Success to you, congratulations for your achievements, and will you stand by for the school as the school wishes to aid when it is possible? g Page Eight 60646 by ROBERT H. ROSS Vice-Principal Greetings to the Student Body: It is difficult for us to foresee just what lies ahead after four war years. This much is assured-that Peace will come to those who continue to fight for it. Your part in the struggle is to prepare yourselves so well that your future and that of your fellowmen is secure. Success seems to shine upon those who expand their power of concen- tration, upon those who permit good judgment to control their activity, and upon those who develop a lceen sense of fairness to all. May every success be yours.

Membership High Within the city of Youngstown and the Northeastern District of Ohio the membership of the Chaney Parent-Teacher Association ranks very high. In 1944- 1945 the number of parents who paid membership dues was 573. Many helpful services are provided each year by the organization. The offi- cers, executive committee, and chairmen of other committees meet each summer with representatives of the teaching staff in selecting the theme for the year, which -in 1944-1945 was Thrift, Four meetings were planned for the year at which were emphasized, Saving Our Health, Investing in Brotherhood and Religion, Investing in Democracy and Citizenship, and Expending Our Energies on the Child. A treat at Christ- mas time to the elementary children was greatly appreciated. The officers for 1944-1945 were John Ledinlco, president, Mrs. William McKinley, first vice-president, Mrs. Robert Ross, second vice-president, and Miss Anna Fahrney, treasurer. The school faculty and administration recognize the support of the members of the PTA in matters of education, and in turn pledge their efforts in service to the children for whom the institution exists.

By John Kurylalc Americans all-both young and free- Heads held high, with firm, brave gaze They face the world and ponder how They'll serve in brighter, happier days- What is our place who leave behind A lifetime in few wondrous years To face another life, in stranger worlds, Void of laughter, filled with tears? What is our place in this fair town, In this wide world, in heaven sublime? What thread to weave is our set fate In God's tapestry of Time? What pattern shall we follow through With the golden needle of Life? Shall all our threads be of silken joy Or broken ones, of grief and strife? Will our threads ever cross again Within the brilliant tapestry? Whose will be the longest bright- The shortest-before eternity? In or out, or bright or dark Whate'er may be our path We'll work, and strive, and build until The world once more may laugh. Our creed, then, shall be this, we pledge 'Love life, love man, love nation, all, And you will serve the I-Ieav'nly Master 'Til you heed the Lordis eternal call'.

A Page Twenty-Six Class History By Irene Deak and Evelyn Miller january '45 Back in 1933, when the two wizards of war were busy concocting their formula for destroying the world, life was just beginning for a small group of children who were preparing to launch themselves on their educational career. This was to be the nucleus of Chaney's class of January 1945. Through the twelve years that have since passed, many of the original members have been lost along the way. Those remaining are Margaret Baytos, Shirley Boles, Irene Deak, Alice Douthitt, Phyllis Jenkins, Shirley Jones, Mary Kieffer, John Kurylak, Maryann Malley, Evelyn Miller, Delmyra Mock, Joyce Ramsey, Lavon Smith, and George Stefura. While the children of Europe and Japan were learning to hate and to kill, we were learning the meaning of peace and brotherly love. Until we reached the ninth grade, school was just an endless succession of days. After reaching high school, we began to discover that school was not all work and no play. Various clubs and activities were opened to us as Freshmen. In the memorable year of 1941, we, along with the nation, were shocked into the realities of war. This factor changed our whole high school career. Subjects were changed, new clubs, such as the H. Y. A., were introduced, and efforts were in- creased to a war tempo. During our tenth and eleventh years, a few members of the class were called to the service of our country. We have kept in close contact with them and recently have heard that one of them, Robert Best, had been wounded in action, and also, during the last semester, Sam Radowick, another member, had to leave us. We, here at school, have carried on for them, however, by striving, seeking, finding, and not yielding. Ar last we came face to face with our senior year. This is when we began to make history, for the class unanimously elected John Kurylak as president. This was the first time in the history of Chaney High School that a president was elected without a dissenting Vote. Our class advisers, who have helped us through the trials and tribulations of our senior year, were appointed, and work began in earnest. Under the leadership of the advisers and officers, our senior year was made full with activities such as football, the senior proms, parties, the senior play, the banquet, and commence- ment. Needless to say, we were kept busy, for school work had to be done, just as it had to be done in the preceding years. Our twelve years of formal education at Chaney are now coming to an end. With a little sadness in our hearts, we close this important period of our lives. This is the history of our class-but it seems insufficient when we loolc into the future and see that this is only the preface to our real history-the history of re- building a war torn world. Somehow, these few words cannot convey our real feel- ing at leaving the institution that has been the primary factor in shaping our lives. Words cannot express the heartaches, the sorrows, and the difficulties that con- fronted us, but we have had them, and we know that there are many more in sight. Perhaps some of us will not be here in the future, for we have a war to win, but we know that our friends will carry on for us, and help to create the real history of the class of January 1945. Page Twenty-Seven VALEDICTORY January 1945 By John Kurylak As the day of our departure from high school draws near, we realize how inadequate are any words of ours to express our true emotions about leaving. So much has filled these last twelve years, so much has each day meant to us that comment upon them seems difficult without cheapening the real import- ance they have had and will have upon our lives. We do realize that far more valuable than the textbook lessons which we have learned here are the lessons in life we have gained within these walls. Equipped with these lessons we shall leave Chaney's halls ready to build a new world based on understanding among all peoples and all nations of the earth. During the past decade, our characters have formed, our personalities have developed, our bodies have matured, our minds have broadened. Today we are young men and women of America and we boldly face the future. In leaving these familiar halls we do not leave education behind, for we have just begun to learn. Ahead lie broader, newer fields, we are eager to be off. With tears in our eyes, but with pride and hope in our hearts, we clasp hands in one last farewell. We hope we shall not be forgotten, dear Alma Mater, we know that you have written an indelible record in our lives. Page Twenty-Eight CALE N DAR JANUARY 1945 January 31, 1944-Senior Year .. .

'October 5-Seniors Part C LASS PO ETS By Edyth Hadley The great English poet Wordsworth said, Poetry is the breath and finer spirit of all knowledge. Wishing to encourage this expression of the finer spirit, the teachers of English have inaugurated the custom of designating annually a class poet from each of the senior-A and senior-B classes. Because of his past record of creative excellence, the poet will write the traditional class poem for the Year Book. Over a period of years some students have been outstanding for their con- sistent interest in the writing of poetry. They have received recognition for their efforts through the publication of their work in the Youngstown Book of Creative Writing, the Ohio Book of Poetry,', and the national anthology, Young Amer- ica Sings. Such qualities as an understanding of the emotions of others, ability to recog- nize beauty in the commonplace, a sense of humor, a love for nature, a vivid imagin- ation, ability to catch the spirit of an occasion, visualization of the future, and beauty and simplicity of diction formed the basis of judgment in the selection of these young writers for this honor. The first to be selected as class poets are John Kurylak and Albert Travsky, of the January and June 1945 classes, respectively. These young men merit the honor conferred upon them as they have been recognized by both local and national judges as having done worthwhile and promising work in comparison with that of others of like age. Among those who deserve honorable mention are Betty Campbell, Evelyn Miller, Albert Suhovecky, and Paula Holub of the January class, and Dolores Newman, Douglas Downie, and Dolores Topia of the June class, all of whom have had work published. A letter of bestowal of the award and the congratulations of the teachers of English will be mailed to the parents before the announcement of the choice of class poet is made public at the commencement exercises.

The fools who start a bloody war Are powerless to stop the cannon's roar. They summon men, more wise than they, To heal the wounds and save the dayg But even the wise cannot make amends. Another war comes. When the shooting en The struggle to make a just peace starts. In this strange war we use our hearts And our clouded minds. Some to hate, To plan a bitter revenge, to await A chance to strike again, As a master-race, their dreams to attain, Others to love, to hope, and to plan A better world for the welfare of man. Ours shall be the sacred task to see That the pages of the world's history Will no longer with blood be red, But filled with peace, white and blessed.

Another graduating class is about to leave the doors of Chaney High School. Many of us will be parting forever, but the influence that Chaney has had on our lives is something that will never leave us. Naturally, there is a certain sadness in our parting, but on the other hand, we are looking forward to going out into a world which will give us opportunities to use what we have been taught and to gain new experiences. Just as the mother bird teaches the fledglings to use their wings so that they will become strong enough to carry them in flight, so you, our parents and teachers have guided and taught us, looking toward the day when we would go out alone and try our wings. Now that the day is here, we are going out into a world that has need of the abilities of all of us. This world will need not only people to build material structures, but also people with the mental ability to think over and decide important matters. Wherever we finally find ourselves, whether it be the Army, the Navy, the Marines, nurses training or office work, we feel we will be able to meet the chal- lenge the situation offers because we have been taught to think, to work, and to take our share of responsibility. We may never meet again, but wherever we go, we will always be inspired by our years at Chaney and the pleasant associations we have had there. In the words of Alfred Lord Tennyson, we will go forward, Strong in will - To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Page Forty-Seven ' ' CLASS HISTORY Denise Hardy and Alice Dornbrock Three short months after we began our high school career, war was declared, but, thank God, this is America, and in our schools we are not greatly affected by it physically. Our enthusiasm as eager freshmen was by no means curtailed by the turn of events, but rather was heightened by it. We became more earnest and in- terested knowing that education was our weapon in the war. Even as inexperienced freshmen we realized that knowledge would give us courage with which to face life, that we could trust ourselves to act if we knew we were right. Equipped with learning, we could acquire self-reliance which in itself is the criterion of a democratic spirit. Yet, the ensuin ears roved that there were other wea ons for us to use. g Y P P Yes, many of our classmates had already left us to use material weapons by joining the armed forces. We were then fighting on two fronts. As is always true, through the friendly guidance of our teachers, we have over- come the obstacles that arose. To a high school student it is no less than a catastrophe when the dance one has planned is cancelled, when the mathematics seems just a little too complicatedg and when the Latin verbs just won't stay in the right tenses. The ones who came to our rescue in these plights were the ones who, in their own quiet way, also helped us to become acquainted with one another more easily and to become leaders. These were our teachers. The veil of seriousness the war has flung over the world has increased our measures of values. Present day seniors can realize now instead of in the future what has been done for them throughout their school life. Time passed swiftly, each advancement bringing added confidence and new joys. Extra curricular activities and sports as well as new war-time activities added variety to our regular work. Learning from books alone was not all we obtainedg we learned how to enjoy life and live it to the fullest. Thus we passed through the ranks: Freshmen-full of questions and a trifle apprehensiveg Sophomor-es-knowing all the answers, so we thoughtg Juniors- more hopeful with increasing confidence. Finally, Seniors-our goal attained. True, we had enjoyed our other years but nothing we had experienced so far could compare with the thrills experienced in our senior year. The highlights were the organization of senior home room, election of officers, our first prom, measurements for rings, pictures taken, and senior seats occupied in the assembly. In all of these activities Miss Elizabeth Knowlton and Mr. Gomer Lewis, our advis- ers, aided us willingly and kindly. with keen realization of the task before us, and armed with the knowledge and truths obtained during these past four years, we are ready to begin our lives as adults. The world is ours and, please God, we will make it right. Page Forty-Eight VALEDICTORY Q By Albert Travslty Commencement is a time when we simultaneously end and begin separate periods in our lives. The great majority of us end the period of preparation. Our high school education has been varied. Some have prepared them- selves for lives in industryg some for lives in businessg some for lives in pro- fessionsg but all have prepared for lives in America. All have prepared for the American way of doing things, for the American way of life. We realize that this American way of life has been spotlighted with increasing brilliance throughout the war. Perhaps if we, the Class of June, 1945, were to start our high school education all over, we would prepare more conscientiously for livingin America, because of the effect of the war on' our thinking. Never- theless, we believe we have prepared sufficiently well' for life in our great country. The period we are entering is one of participation. Participation in the American way of life is a cherished privilege. Shall we take advantage of that privilege? We members of this graduating class think that we shall: we have prepared for it. Now we shall apply the knowledge' we 'have gained to practical life situations. ' Our .teachers inspirations, have placed us in debt 'ro them repaythat debtby being we choose to leave 4 this message: th, . . you XS- .1 .Nx- CALEN DAR JUNE1945 By Donna Woods and Dolores Grady September 5, 1944--Semester Begins . . .

Phillips, president of the june 1945 class. George Levitsky, president of the January f1946 graduating class, will be presented the Gavel of Leader- ship by john R. Phillips on the next Class Day, May 29, 1945. The presenting of the Gavel of Leadership has be- come a tradition at Chaney. The holder of the gavel pledges hirnself to uphold the ideals of his Alma Mater and to the best of his ability, pilot his classmates through all difficulties during the closing period of their high school career. A class is now passing through the portals of Chaney, another class is taking its place, occupying its seats, accepting its privileges and honors due the grad- uating senior class. In the following pages, ten other classes are shown, each destined to become the graduat- ing class of Chaney High. One out of each group, a leader, will make his way to the front to lead his classmates and accept the Gavel of Leadership. Who will be the leader, the class presi- dent of each group? Who will have the courage, the ambition to carry on until ch. L A reached? Page Faffy-c Farewell, Seniors of January and June, l945 By Betty Polinslcy January 1946 Once more, farewell! If e'er we meet hereafter, we shall meet In happier climes, and on a safer shore. The time has come to wish you, the departing seniors, farewell. You entered these halls during peaceful days, but you are leaving them to enter a world torn by war. Your task of preserving man's liberty and promoting universal understanding will be difficult but with your mental and spiritual back- ground you will succeed. Your hopes, ambitions, and ideals have been high. You have set a standard-noble and true- a high standard upon which we shall pattern our years of learning, and by this, we hope to achieve the same goal. The best of luck, then, ro the Seniors of Jan- uary and June, 1945, and we shall try to follow in your footsteps.

But to the newcomers or an outside visitor, it is something unique and wonderful. They are amazed to see partially and totally blind sudents studying and competing on an equal basis with sighted classmates- asking for neither special consideration nor sympathy. The Chaney Braille Class is one of five such day Braille classes in Ohio, but is the only one which guides its pupils through high school. Room ll2 in the South Wing is headquarters for all Braille students and there are located Braille writing tools, talking booksf' and a wide assortment of modern and classic literature written in Braille. Mrs. Sarah Tolton has charge of the classis instrumental music, dancing, and choral reading. Nliss Pauline Powers, class supervisor, recently received a degree of Doctor of Education from the University of Pittsburgh. Irene Deak, Braille student, has entered Western Reserve University to train for rehabilitation work with blind soldiers after the war. Twelve Braille students will have been graduated from Chaney by January, 1945. Six have been members of the National Honor Society. Last year, Irene Deak was given the honor. In previous years, Eleanor May, Doris May, Madeline Pucci, Wfarren Mills, and Frank Beshera gained National Honor Society laurels. All twelve Braille graduates entered society undaunted and are now performing various roles vital to a wartime world. The present class of thirteen includes the following pupils: Irene' Deak, IZA, Phillip Beshara, 12Bg Mary Louise Schromofsky, llAg Fred Lotzc, llBg Elizabeth Beshara, IOBQ Steve Phillips, 9Ag julia Savich, 9Ag Wa5'ne Meeker, 7Ag Alex Chavich, 7Ag Catherine Kunde, SB, Richard Marino, SB, james Miller. lAg and Samuel Miller, IA.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Chaney sports fans who sit in the stands at football, basketball, and baseball games are all but unaware of the guiding force whose hard work behind the scenes makes possible the smooth functioning of each athletic program. This group at Chaney is known as the Athletic Association. There are schedules to make, transportation difficulties to straighten out, auditing and accounting to do. and numerous other jobs that must be taken care of to insure a well-managed scholastic athletic set-up, and the Athletic Association is always ready and willing to take on the job. Cnce more the Chaney Athletic Association has admirably performed a diffi' cult job made more difficult by the war-time conditions encountered during the past season. Nine members compose the Association since Vice-Principal W. W. Parmenter's retirement last spring. Seated, from left to right: Mr. Warren T. Barr, Miss Miriam Gabler, Mr. john R. Griffiths.

' Relying chiefly on mastery of speed and T-formation plays and a magnificent fighting spirit inherited from their 1943 predecessors, the 1944 Chaney team com- pleted the season with six wins, a loss, and a tie. The early-season record shows consecutive wins over Wilson, Niles, and South. The West Siders then drew a 7-7 stalemate with Memorial and lost the next week to a powerful East grid machine, 27-0. Chaney hit the victory stride the following two weeks by conquering its two city series opponents, Ursuline, 6-0, and Rayen, 15-0, The win over Rayen, following South's upset of East the night before, gave the fighting littlesv their share of the crown along with East and South. After a week's lull, the curtain dropped on the ' 44 season when Chaney defeated Ashtabula Harbor at the Chaney Stadium, Z6-7. Stoogie Siciliano provided one of the biggest thrills of the season in this encounter when he ran 105 yards for a score in the fourth quarter. Another brilliant 53-yard dash by Siciliano and two more tallies by Paul Andrish completed the scoring. Johnny Siciliano ran rampant over Woodrow Wilson in the opening game of the season as he hit pay dirt four times. Bill Weaver scored once to give Chaney a 32-6 edge. Renewing their rivalry with Niles, Chaney upset a heavy Niles McKinley eleven, 7-6. Siciliano tallied off tackle and Smith ran over the margin of victory after Radowick's place kick was blocked. In the second city series encounter with South, the West Siders capitalized on a break in the fourth quarter when Ernie DeChellis gathered in a partially blocked aerial on the South five-yard line. They went on to score and defeat a tough South High aggregation, 6-0. Siciliano stepped over into pay dirt from the five for the lone tally. Chaney trekked to Memorial on Oct. 6, and fought the vaunted Campbellites to a 7-7 stalemate. Siciliano scored his seventh touchdown of the year and Radowick booted the tying extra-point. When East and Chaney met the next week, bothteams boasted unblemished records, but East, having one of the most powerful teams in its history, won a Z7-0 decision over a hard fighting Chaney eleven. The Scarlet and Gray got their first taste of mud when they faced a far superior Ursuline eleven, but alert Martin Kollar, Chaney's left wingman, intercepted a flat pass and raced 88 yards for the West team's 6-0 edge. The aforementioned upset of East at the hands of South High made the Rayen- Chaney encounter an all-important clash for both teams. With a share of the city championship at stake, the two opposing elevens entered the field of friendly strife. As the smoke of the battle lifted a victorious Chaney emerged as City Co-Champs. Andrish took scoring honors as he put on a one-man show, tallying twice to pad Chaney's slim 2-0 margin as a result of John nailing Rayen 'Tabaschino for a first quarter safety. The final 15-0.

In other words he was invincible on the hard court. These hard-court clribblersu made up for a lack of height with plenty of speed, fight, and deception. All of the players above saw action all season. As a team their pass work and close cooperation contributed much to the success of this year's basketball season for Chaney High. Page Seventy The 1944-45 Basketball Season in Review The 1944-45 Basketball season proved to be the banner year for Chaney both in floor action and game attendance. Despite war time restrictions on traveling, the West Siders played 17 contests, winning 11 and losing 6, thereby establishing one of the best won and los! records in the basketball history of Chaney. The season began on December 8, 1944 and throughout the next three months the loyal fans flocked to all of Chaney's hard court encounters, especially to the triple-header city series battles at South Field House. The capacity of the building was jammed as those interested in the cage game watched the seven city high school cage outfits fight it out for the City Basketball Championship. The West Siders met their first city series opponents on January 5 at South paouaiaadxaui ue LIJFM pa1Sue1 pue poompxeq arp on :loom Aaqi uaqm asnoH plaid Blue and Gold East High cage crew. They proved themselves superior basketeers holding throughout the contest a commanding lead which was never contested by East. The final buzzer found Chaney on top 35-25. Ed Kuhar took individual scoring honors for Chaney with 10 points followed by Ong, Smith, and DeChellis with 9, 8, and 8 points respectively. The Scarlet and Gray made it two in a row the following week when they toppled a game Rayen squad. Chaney was behind 5-2 at the end of the first period. Holding Rayen scoreless in the second, Chaney bombarded the nets for 10 markers to take a 12-5 halftime lead. From here on they were never headed as they went on to win handily 32-21. Ong, Kuhar and Andrish led the attack dividing 29 points. Two weeks later, Chaney tasted its first series defeat when they suffered a two point heart breaking thriller at the hands of a flashy Scienceville crew, 41-39. Trailing by scores of 8-7 and 22-17 respectively at the close of the first and second quarters, the home courtiers found he mark in the third to pull within one point of Scienceville, as the period ended. Trailing 39-37 with two minutes left, Ed Leskovec, subbing for Ernie DeChellis, knotted the count at 39-all with a lay up shot, but Charles Terrell, Scienceville center, dunked a fielder under the hoop with less than 50 seconds remaining that provided the margin of victory. Chaney's hopes for the city title or at least a share of it was completely shat- tered when they met a rangy South High quintet on Feb. 2 in anoher series game. The Red and Blue, using their height to an advantage, headed for their third con- secutive City crown by soundly trouncing the West Side Crew, 44-27. Chaney trailed 9-8 and 16-15 at the end of the first two periods but the final stanzas showed definitely that it was South's night. Harold Ong, displaying his usual form, gath- ered in 10 points to take scoring laurels for Chaney. The next week found Chaney hitting the victory stride again in the local race as they went on a scoring spree to submerge Woodrow Wilson 43-30. Fourteen players were used in the Chaney line-up with Paul Andrish as the king-pin with 11 points. Runner-up laurels for the city basketball title went to the West Siders for the second consecutive year as they reached new scoring heights to triumph over Ursuline 52-23 in their last appearance at the South Field House on Feb. 16. Coach McPhee substituted frequently with the reserves seeing quite a bit of action. Harry Smith and Harold Ong tossed aside all thoughts of superstitions as they both canned 13 points in this Friday night contest. The season opener was played on the home court on Dec. 8, Chaney playing host to Newton Falls. Harold Ong, caging 15 points, helped his team ring up victory number one. The West Siders continued undefeated up to Canton Timken encounter, posting wins over Austintown, Fitch, Canfield, East, Struthers, and Rayen. After bowing to Timken, Chaney won five of the ten remaining contests, topping Canton Lehman, Warren, Hickory, Pa., and its two city opponents, Wilson and Ursuline, while losing to Scienceville, South, Mansfield, Boardman, and Memorial. Page Seventy-One The l944-45 Basketball Lettermen Fifteen players from the 1944-45 Chaney cage squad received a letter signifying that they have given sufficient service to the cause of their team. The scarlet C that the player will sport on a gray sweater is a measure of long hours of tedious practice, his showing in the big game, and his performance against a traditional foe.

Baseball The Chaney High School baseball squad, winning thirteen out of its fourteen- contests, fully established itself as the greatest baseball team in Chaney's baseball history. It also took city and district laurels by bowling over all local competition. The only defeat the apple smashers suffered was administered by Canton Township in the finals of the N. E. O. tournament in Canton. The West Siders started their baseball machine rolling by drubbing Greenford, 19-0, in the season's opener. Paul Andrish and Carmen DiMuzio collaborated in holding Greenford to one hit while Bob Oravec and Andy Dutko poled homers for the victors. Chaney drubbed them again in a return fray, 18-0, at Greenford. DiMuzio, Harry Smith, and Dutko shone for Chaney. North Lima was easily taken behind Nick Sveth's one-hit hurling, 20-l, but was more troublesome in a second game, being beaten only Chaney's fifth straight victory was at the fell before the apple smashers machine, 12-3, and in a return was number ten for them. Chaney's traditional battle with Warren went to Chaney's booming bats and Sveth's beautiful in-shoot. Chaney's only city series rival, East, fell before and DiMuzio's smoke ball 6-0. DiMuzio Chaney's seventh successive win. The apple smashers then went to Canton to ment, and in doing so beat Wooster, 8-3, Canton only defeat of the season, 3-2, at the hands of C The final game of the season was with East. them again in a bitter struggle 5-4. This ended Chaney's most successful baseball and 1 loss, an enviable record for any scholastic squad 1944 BASEBALL Chaney 19 ............. .. .........

Page Seventy-Six TENNIS, BOWLING, GOLF Rounding out the athletic picture at Chaney are three com- paratively new sport attractions steadily gaining in popularity. These are bowling, tennis, and golf. SCARLET AND GRAY KEGLERS Set 'em up in the other alley! is the cry each fall and winter Saturday morning as the Chaney bowling team takes to the hardwood. Aiming for the king-pin this past season were Nick Sveth, Douglas Downie, Paul Andrish, Charles Fedyna, Harold Ong, Metro VVolo- schalc, and Bill Bailey. Joe DeFuria also bowled for the Chaneyites until leaving to enter the service early in December. Mr. John R, Griffiths manages the ten-pin squad which remained all season in or very near the lead spot in the Mahoning Valley High School Bowling League. CHANEY 1944 TENNIS TEAM Interest in tennis last year slackened somewhat, but Chaney was again represented in the Mahoning Valley Scholastic Tennis League. Mr. Gomer Lewis, who coaches the Scarlet and Gray netters, is Secretary-Treasurer of the League. The tennis players who swung rackets for Chaney in 1944 were Bob Pilgrim, Jerry Antalik, Warner Bacak, Ronald Damey. GOLF MAKES WEST SIDE DEBUT The newest athletic addition to the Chaney sports cycle is the popular American fairway sport of golf. Only two contests with South High were played. Gene Edel, Tom Kurtz, Walter Sucher, and Ronald Damey wielded putters, mashies, and irons for Chaney. Mr. Chester McPhee coached the squad in their initial season.

A. A. began the club year with initiation of 53 members. It is a democratic organization, qualifications for membership being participation in at least one of the club's activities offered each year. The aim of the club is to inspire more girls to gain health, skill, and a sense of true sportsmanship through physical activity. Leaders' Class Good sportsmanship and leadership are the necessary qualifications that all the girls in the leaders' class possess. This organization has the reputation of develop- ing responsibility, leadership, and initiative. fSee snapshot page., Page Seventy-E ght X X 4 X,'w N .

The vocal student not only learns to read notes, but gains poise and confidence through his appreciation in music. Two clubs, the Junior Boys and Junior Girls Glee Clubs, have been organized for the beginning music students. These groups are taught how to read music, how to sing in harmony, and last of all, the necessity of perfect quality. From these Glee Clubs the better voices are selected and placed in the Senior Glee Clubs. In this manner the best material is concentrated into a smaller group called the Mixed Chorus. In this organization voices are placedg the tonal quality is betteredg and the balance of four parts is perfected. Membership in the Mixed Chorus, the most advanced group, is the aim of every vocal music student. Every year the Glee Clubs participate in concerts, appear at assemblies, and sing for the P.-T. A. After careful selection a pro- gram of songs is arranged early in the semester for each Glee Club. It may justly be said that if improvement in the musical clubs continues in the future as it has in the past, it cannot be very long before Chaney will rank musically among the finest in its class. Page Seventy-Nine 'GLEE CLUBS The Chaney Glee Clubs, under the supervision of Mrs. Allein Holden, have been carrying on during the past years of war as they have done in the previous years of peace. The Junior Boys' Glee Club, consisting largely of junior high school boys singing four part harmony-soprano, alto, tenor, and bass, have done outstanding work. The Senior Boys' Glee Club, consisting of senior high school boys singing three part harmony-tenor, bartone, and bass-have put all their efforts into learning the songs of our Armed Forces. The Junior and Senior Girls' Glee Clubs, composed of junior and senior high school girls, also sing three part harmony-first soprano, second soprano, and alto. The ditference between these two groups is that the Senior Girls' Glee Club, being the more advanced group, sings more difficult music. While our boys fight on the war fronts of the world, the Glee Clubs of Chaney will sing for victory and for peace on the home front.

Colorful costumes, sprighcly conversation, and beautiful music characterized the performance. The leading roles were sung by James Ventresco as King Arthur of the Round Tableg Amelia Corrado as Queen Guinevere, Mary Jo Ross as Solda, wife of banished Percevaleg Chester McPhee as a palmerg Clarence Skidmore as Meliadusg Douglas Downie as Borisg James Gault as Gawaing Alex Christoff as Geraintg and Walter Gane as Launcelot. Knights, ladies, servants, monks, maidens, and pages comprised the rest of the cast. This vocal music concert also featured the Glee Clubs, Junior and Senior Boys, and Junior and Senior Girls. Cutstanding among the entr'acte numbers were Evelyn Kolesar's rendition of C1ounod's Ave Maria, Irene Kramarich's rendition of Robyn's A Heart That's Free, and Doris Jean Bell's Christmas Carols recital on the piano. A Christmas tradition at Chaney is the singing of carols in the halls on the last day before the Christmas recess.

SANDERS Director INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Instrumental Music Department consists of classes for beginners who are interested in the study of band and orchestra instruments, a junior orchestra which prepares students for advanced ensemble playing, a senior orchestra for proficient pupils, and a band for musical growth. Band and orchestral instruments are taught in the beginners' classes which are open to those without previous musical training and also to those who wish to continue the study of their instruments. The group method of instruction is fol- lowed in which sufficient technic is developed for the student to become a member of the band or one of the orchestras. These classes are not intended to supplant individual instruction unless suitable teachers are not available. The junior orchestra prepares students for the advanced playing of the senior orchestra and band. Music especially arranged for this class of ensemble training is studied and performed. As the members of this orchestra gain in ability, they are promoted to one of the advanced groups. The senior orchestra is composed of musicians of advanced training and a high degree of slcill as performers on their instruments. Classics of the symphony orchestra and the best compositions of modern composers are included in the study course. Many of these advanced students become members of musical organizations while they are in school and after they are graduated. The band provides a strong incentive to those interested in the martial and inspiring qualities of band music. A wealth of opportunity is given to the student interested in gaining experience which will be invaluable to him later, and which cannot be acquired in any other manner than actual participation. ' In addition to these important training features there is the distinctive ex- perience that comes out of fellowship with other members of a musical organiza- tion-one comes directly in contact with another's problems, approaches, and ideas. Here he can develop initiative and individual leadership. Many formeristudents in this department are now in the armed forces of our country serving as bandmasters, buglers, and in entertainment work in military camps. Page Eighty-Four Director ,, A. L.

Some members have been active in other musical organizations, including the Youngstown Symphony Orchestra and the Junior Symphony Orchestra. Membership in the orchestra is determined by ability and occurence of vacancies. Advanced students have been selected for membership in city, state, and national educational conventions. Special ensemble groups have been organ- ized from the orchestra membership for radio broadcasts and for appearance before local musical societies. Solo work is encouraged and pupils often appear as soloists in school programs and elsewhere. Although emphasis is placed on the study of the best classical and modern music, the versatility developed enables these orchestra musicians to play dance as well as concert music.

Since then, the membership has grown and this newly formed good-will club is an up-and-com- mg organization. The purpose of El Circulo is to promote friendship between the United States of America and the Latin American countries to the south, to study Spanish customs, literature, and music, to enable members to receive further training in the improve- ment of their Spanish diction, and to attain fluency in the Spanish language, Mexican dishes were served by Senora Francisco Lopez, the mother of Angeline Lopez, and Senora Maria Medina, a neighbor ofthe Lopez family, at a Mexican cena held in the cafeteria on Nov, 15, 1944. El Circulo Espanol means the Spanish circle. The club meets on the third Wednesday of every month to discuss topics of Spanish interest and to carry on their programs in Spanish.

This desire can easily be fulfilled by becoming a member of the Helpful Youth of America. The H. Y. A. is an organization which fosters the idea that no one can aim too high. Being a member means working hard, not for personal glory but to bring cheer and comfort to others and aid to the country during this international crisis. The H. Y. A. brings cheer and comfort to the servicemen by sending them games, interesting letters, greeting cards,'surprise gifts, good books, and magazines. In connection with this, the club is also sponsoring letter and card showers for the wounded soldiers in hospitals and camps all over the world. In aiding our country, the H. Y. A. gathers waste paper and promotes the sale of bonds and stamps. This year, the goal of the bond and stamp drive is the pur- chasing of an amphibian truck and a pursuit plane. In addition to this goal, the H. Y. A. has started the 90W or Minute-Man Flag Club. As in the past, so in the future, this organization will keep its aims high. Adviser ese. ....e....

Its membership consists of students interested in mathematics and who have completed two years and are enrolled for a third year. At each regular meeting, held on the second Thursday of each month, it presents interesting programs and emphasizes the importance of mathematics in time of peace as well as in war. The club is proud of its many alumni members who have advanced in the various armed forces. Among them are the following charter members: Shirl Stephany, james Brady, Bill Jones, William Roh, Tom Breslco, Ben Dreiling, Ray- mond Kurilla, Carl Thomas, Jerry Antalilc, and Bob Kuba. Ir is the custom of this club to sponsor one social each semester, which is attended by the members and their guests.

The membership continues near one hundred in number. Because of the requirement that the year's news be sub- mitted to the staff very early in the school year, this club is adopting the policy of reporting the incidents and officers of the second semester of the previous year, and the same for the first semester of the previous year, together with the names of the members for the last named. Two years went by without a trip, then last semester by Eric train, on May 20, forty members went to Pittsburgh, Pa. The events enjoyed were a visit to Highland Zoo, the Carnegie Museum, and the Pirates vs. Philadelphia Blue -Iys game. The net results were, many reported, We were very tired, but very happy. The social on April Z1 was a joint affair with the Basketball Team. Discipuli Antiquorum, National Forensic League, the Euclidean Club, and the Westerner Staff.

Besides weekly discussion the Hi-Y holds dances, outings, parties. and an annual city government. Each member keeps in mind the creed of the Hi-Y as he strives To create. maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. Page lxllnety-Vive LEAGUE NATIONAL FORENSIC N. F. L.-SPEECH CLASS 1944-45 will be remembered in Chaney N.F.L. history largely as the year of mass participation in contests of all kinds. Thirty-seven members is a new all-time record for the school. Fifteen to thirty hopefuls started out each weekend to match wits with the best speakers in Ohio. They were not always successful, as far as the win column is concerned, but they gained a wealth of experience. Youngstown will hear from many of these in years to come. The highlight of the speech season was when Albert Travsky won the Mahoning Valley Speech League Extemp Championship at Rayen on February 9. This was followed by the debate team winning Chaney's first Valley League Championship. The Tournament was a nip and tuck affair with Chaney and Rayen tied at the end of five rounds of debate. Travsky and Edel broke the tie by defeating Rayen in an overtime debate. Damey, Levitsky and Schaffer shared team honors. A week later Travsky was the choice of the judges as the best debater in the state finals. He also tied for first in an invitational Cxtemp contest held at Canton. Travsky--the only veteran on the squad-is the kind of a speaker, worker, and leader that coaches dream about. Speakers of his type are rare. Chaney will miss him but someone will profit. Frank I-Iomsey won an invitational humorous declamation tournament at Doylestown in December. He was graduated in January. Ravenna, Doylestown, Stow, Chaney, Rayen, Struthers, Massillon, Canton, Niles, and Newton Falls were the hosts who entertained at invitational tourna- ments. The State League finals at Canton, N.F.L, Tournament at Canton, and the Student Congress at Wooster were the important events of the year. Schaffer and McKinney paired to win three debates at Stow and five at Canton. Levitsky was rated one of the best debaters at the Struthers Tournament. The varsity defeated Massillon five out of six times in the early season meets but lost to them when second place in the State League was at stake. Edel and Travsky won three straight in the N.F.L. meet but again Massillon was too strong. Though Cha- ney's affirmative had edged Massillon four times during the regular season their inexperience was too much of a handicap in the crucial tussle. George Levitsky was Youngstown's Student Congress chairman throughout February. In November he represented Chaney on the first all-city Town Meeting broadcast. The N.F.L. Student Congress was held at Wooster on March 29, 30, and 31. Damey, McKinney, Cortese, Levitsky, Travsky, Mitovich, Edel, Schaffer, and Chris- toff make up the Chaney delegation.

During this period our alumni have found distinction in professions and in business life, Many hold high rank in the armed services, several have given their lives. Within this year one was consecrated to the priesthoodg one passed the difficult radar test, one sailed as an army nurse. Several are in training in special fields. To commemorate the fifteenth milestone a dinner was held january 11 at the Dinner Bell. Table decorations were in the colors of the chapter-blue and gold. Miss Edyth Hadley, former adviser, related the story of the founding and early days and spoke feelingly of the achievements of the distinguished members. Vice Principal Robert Ross, a member of the society, brought greetings. Two other faculty members, the Misses Mary Pfingsgraff and Rae Seiler, provided music. Mr. James McNamara of Niles found an appreciative audience for his extempor- aneous poetry, The committee in charge consisted of Denise Hardy, Angeline Lopez, Albert Travslcy, and Donna Woods. Two installation ceremonies were conducted. Ar the first, a group of instru- mentalists from Youngstown College supplied the music. For the second, Miss Harriet Wick, alumna member of the chapter and recent graduate of Vassar Col- lege, was soloist. Monthly meetings were held and various phases of school life discussed. The first semester a tutoring program for pupils recommended by teachers was faithfully carried out. When January brought an unexpectedly large number of elementary pupils to the cafeteria under the government subsidy plan, chapter members assisted there. The chapter now has 462 members. For the first semester the officers were: President, John Kurylakg vice president, Irene Deakg secretary, Joyce Ramsey, corresponding secretary. Evelyn Miller, treasurer, Mary Maksymych. Second semester officers were: President, Douglas Downie, vice president, Albert Travslcyg secretary, Denise I-Iardyg corresponding secretary, Donna Woodsg treasurer, Alice Dornbrock.

X ,S MISS MOLLIE RUSSELL Di rector l Soon after the first World War the community theater came into existence in answer to the demands for activities which would provide group participation. The enthusiasm for the little theater movement became so widespread that high school students began asking for classes in dramatics. Soon colleges and universities were offering well developed courses for training teachers of dramatics. The students from the high school, college, and university classes carried their interest and training into dozens of community theaters and exerted a real influence upon production as well as upon per- formances. This growth of interest and the larger audiences caused the theater going public to develop a wholesome critical attitude. Furthermore, these productions satisfied the aesthetic desires of hun- dreds of people and provided a vehicle of inestimable value for the development of personality through leisure activity. Chaney High School first offered dramatics as a credit course in 1930. About two hundred students enroll in classes each year. Through classtworlc, public performances in assembly, and production pf and full length plays, these students find opportunity to develop' their variedabilities and to deepen their appreciation of the real valuguiof life. i' -1 . nr.. 5 N ii Page One Hundred 5 5 . A C. 6' T. DRAMATICS CLUB The first public performances of the Dramatics Club were two football pep assemblies in which l40 students demonstrated their ability to act by rousing the enthusiasm of the students. Many students displayed their ability in writing dia- logue, poems, and in stage decorations. Others showed great imagination and cre- ative interpretation in presenting scenes from the West Side Dairy and Cornyville High School. Several students participated in the Saturday morning Red Cross broadcasts over radio station WKBN. The six one-act plays presented by the club on March l and 2 introduced much new talent and gave the audience an opportunity to see the last performance of many students. The students in the classes were guests of the Youngstown Players at a dress rehearsal. These invitations stimulated interest as well as provided entertainment and training. At present there are nine season tickets in the classes.

The story revolves around Susie Smith, who pretends to be a wild and woolly cowgirl and upsets the usual peaceful routine of the Lorraine family. Susie, really a refined girl, achieves her purpose which is to teach the husband to be the man of the house, rather than his wife. All ends well with peace being restored to the Lorraine family. Two fine performances were given by the January play cast: SUSIE SMITH, who comes from Texas, played by Joyce Ramsey. ARMISTICE, her colored maid, played by Delmyra Mock. SAM LCRRAINE, the henpecked husband, played by Albert Suhovecky, and his domineering wife, LAURA, played by Yolanda Toth. LOLA CLIFFORD, Laurays sister played by Lois Ramirez. CUPIE CLOONEY, in love with Lola, played by Thomas Stanton. WAYNE LORRAINE, Sam's brother, was played by John Kurylalc. CONSTANCE PAWLE, a friend of Laura's, played by Paula Holub and BUNNY SLINGSBEE, who just slays Constance, played by James Gault. JUD JONES, Wayne's closest pal, played by Robert Miller. RITA PANDRO, an artist's model, played by Agatha Maskullca and SADIE APPLEBAUM, another model, played by Ann Zagiba. JANE SMITH, Jud Jones' weeping fiancee, played by Bette Campbell and Mary Maksymych, Page One Hundred Two COME RAIN OR SHINE Come Rain or Shine, the refreshing comedy presented by the June '45 class, is an up-to-the-minute story of an amusing American family trying to enjoy a simple summer vacation at the lake. Of course, each member of the family has a different idea as to what makes a summer vacation worthwhile, To -Iac and her friends, Irene and Agnes, taking part in a summer theater project is the height of their ambition. But Julia March, the domineering and ec- centric owner of the city paper, which -Iac's father edits, has founded the theater in order to further the ambitions of her beautiful, pampered granddaughter, Rose- mary. Almost immediately, Rosemary and Jac are at odds over the leading roles and over Dan Lyons, the vibrant young theater director. The patient mother, Mrs. Grfayson, is as enthusiastic over the idea as the younger set, but to Mr. Grayson, the harassed father, it appears merely as a means of disturbing his peace. His annoyance reaches its peak when, at the last minute before a preformance, he is being forced to substiutte for his son. The frenzy of Jac,s lazy brother, Glenn, over the beauty of Rosemary is pathetic to behold. When Mrs. Sparks, a gossipy neighbor, overhears a rehearsal scene and mistakenly jumps to conclusions, the climax is reached. Though Come Rain or Shineu is a rollicking comedy written in the spirit of fun, the insight and warm affection underlying the merriment adds a refreshing ring of truth to the situations and characters. An abundance of talent among the June seniors provided a double cast, each giving an excellent performance on the afternoon and evening of May 10 and ll.

This year, as last, the paper has been sent all over the world, first class. The joy inspired by this overture on the part of the staff is attested to by the hundreds of letters and cards which pour in from battlefronts around the globe. The school paper carries all the news of Chaney both on the battlefront and on the home front. It is a four page, five column tabloid and, through the courtesy of The Youngstown Vindicator and Telegram in lending mats of Chaney servicemen and women, the paper is highly pictorial. The Westerner Staff is one of the busiest groups in the school. They gather the news, edit, copyread and proof it, finance and circulate the paper. A group is constantly at work folding, wrapping, stamping, and addressing the hundreds of papers which are sent to the members of the armed forces. Cn May 9, 1945, the Chaney Westerner sponsored the High School on Parade program which was broadcast by WFMJ from the Chaney auditorium. In the Chaney Print Shop, which is modernly and thoroughly equipped, the Westerner and Annual are printed under the supervision of Mr. S. W. Rawson, instructor of Printing.

Their kind words are appreciated and respected. The school's best wishes are extended to all those who hold its diploma, and to all others who, because of misfortune or necessity, could get but a part of the school's offerings. It is hoped that the pride which the school has in the perform- ance of those who are its product will be matched by the regard they have for their alma mater. Through such a mutual respect and cooperation will the community's invest- ment in youth be worth while. The present officers are Harriet Wick, presidentg Katherine Kabealo, vice- presidentg and Mrs. E. Diller, secretary-treasurer. .L-214' SPRING By Dolores Newman, June, '45 I hear the faintest whisper, Out in field in wood. I know that spring is there untying All the violets' purple hoods.
