REILLS The Show Boat was a glamorous but temporary factor in our river scene. More dominant in the life of our town is the river itself. For 128 miles, from the hills of West Virginia, this stream with the strange Indian name leisurely winds its Way past our town on its way to Pittsburgh where it loses its identity in the Ohio River. Onwfncl into the Mississippi, and after a long journey it ends in the warm Waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Thatys our riverg the very one we Can see from our high school. See the boats-- one going upstream, the other downstream. Look at our town-hugging the hiils and flaunting the river as its front yard. Once the life-line of the town, it is still a prominent feature in the lives of our people. Dilfff'fx.TllIlN ldeals are like stars: you will not succeed in touehing them with your hands, but like the seafaring man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and, following them, you reach your destiny.-Carl Sehurl To you, the Seniors of 1949. we leaxe this thought. 'We hope that in this fast and pizietieal world of today you will find time for your ideals, for the world of ideals is the realm of intelli- gent men. Aim high-et-'en at impossible heightsg who knows what great achievements will he encountered in striving to reach your ultimate goal. Remember - always remember, the vision eomes first, and then only you can transform the ideal into il reality. Yes, dream and look beyond the horizon: then work to ae- complish your life's aim-your ldeal. Sf'l'f'll ,, 4 V it CEIIJEAR MEMIIJIR STAFF' 5-5f4 'T23 ma q SITTINCWM. McFadden, P. Haines, R.

This is a rich industrial region through which the river flows. It is the means through which the vast coal fields are served. Any day you can see the heavily Ien coal barges coming downstream to furnish the industrial needs of this section of , .nerica. Thar smoke you see is the smoke of prosperity-prosperity for Charleroi, ior the Monongahela Valley, for America. Here is the source of steel which serves oi country in war and peace.

Catching it at the right moment, and with the aid of our imagination, we have a River of Romance. Did you ever see it by night? Did you see your dreams reflcctcd in the moonlight on the calm and peaceful water? Did you happen to pass by when the lights from the mills turn the whole scene into magic? If you never have, you have missed one of the most spectacular things our river has to offer. Why, it is almost a place where dreams come true. wwf NfQ SQ Q' E i?? k g-10' CD , PRDLUEUE TI-IE ADMINISTRATION MR. CLIPMAN AT HIS DESK T!! AN ASPIRATIIIIN Out of the upward-reaching heart of man have grown dreams and visions and ideals. Often man has used his skill to make his dreams come true. But, hovfever lose to them he has approached, his upward-reaching heart has gone on dreaming of thi gs still higher, which he cannot often hope to attain. From the nature of man's spirit, we know that perfection is a goal that runs swiftly before us, but always evades us, Wfhile we struggle to grow, We live in infperfection. Our aspiration, though never attained, gauge and measure the quality of the soul more than all of its mistakes and failures. Hence, to look out upon the astonishing universe with eyes unblinking and face un- blanchedg to ignore no truth and fear no facts, to build high hopes upon a firm foun- dation, to forgive without demanding apologyg to keep affection in spite of mis- understanding, to set our thought upon the things of value, and spend our strengx: in the fulfilling of noble purposes, to rever- ence the good intentions of others rather than censure their errorsg to be alert to na- ture's pageantry, though we dwell amid the city's clamorg to get the most out of life by right living, and give the most we can back to the World, to be sincere, faithful to respon- sibility, cherishing honor above indulgence, and service above gain, to be guided in our conduct by the shining angel of lntelligence, and not by the gaunt spectre of Fearg to ap- proach our last hour with the calm of a philo- sopher and the gentleness of a saintg to leave the world enriched by L1 treasury of kind deeds and a memory of love-this is an aspiration: this is an ideal.-Source Unknown XV.

NILIEIII DRIVER EDLICATIEIN Twenty-six FQELIEIIIIU5 EDLIIIATIIIIN Not long ago, September of 1941, in fact, Charleroi High School first held religious educmion classes. This was brought about by the success of such programs in Pitts- burgh vicinity. Religious education has been prospering ever since. Every student of Charleroi High School has the opportunity to take religious education whether or not he is a member of any church. The students report to their own churches or, if several have combined, to the church decided upon every Tuesday morning at 11 C0 o'clock. The program and teachers are left entirely to the individual churches. Ii: idea of week day religious education classes was first brought up in the local Minis- t1..i'i Association at the close of 1939. Rev. Rugh was appointed to contact Father Maehr and Rabbi Leader. These men met with our former Superintendent of Schools, Mr. T. L. Pollock and Mr. W. H. Clipman, Jr. Qthen principalj to discuss the most suitable plan. An extensive study of plans used in other schools was made. After much Work and splendid cooperation the present plan was adopted. The over all objective of the Religious Education Program was to give those students 'aiio have never had the opportunity, religious instruction. Charleroi High School is fortunate to have such a program, and we owe a great debt of gratitude to the people who made this possible. SII TINC1-Mrs. T. Malcolm Fries, Mrs. G. Marchalk, Mrs. B.

Eigbtjf-fozzr VOCAL MUSIC Music was very important on the Show Boat. Its Calliope heralded its arrival long before it was seen. Its orchestra held sway in the orchestra pit and was invaluable during the olio presentation. Charleroi High School has its music too-both vocal and instrumental. The vocal music department is, indeed, an example of the power of melodious harmony. These ,, 1 , bl' - d energetic groups are the sources of talent for many of our asstm ies, parties, antts and contests. They can be found diligently practicing almost any time of the day. lt is through these efforts that their activities are successful. The vocal department consists of a number of groups. Among these are the Sopho- naorf. Junior and Senior Trios, the Boys' Quartet, the Girls' Ensemble, the Mixed Ensemble, the Mixed Chorus, the A Cappella Chorus and the Girls' Junior Chorus. Evezyone of these activities is extra-curricular, and thus the participants have a true fondness for music Along with the entertaining which they do so well, these groups enter into competi- tion with other schools. Throughout the years, Charleroi's music department has won distinction. The County Contest this year was no exception. Two of the en- tries won first place. They were the Mixed Ensemble and Marie Baehr, alto solo. The really big event of the year was the District Contest. It was held at California State Teachers College. Again our school came through with flying colors. Those who obtained superior ratings came in first place. These were the A Cappella Chorus and the Girls' Trio. Two of our solosits, Marie Baehr and Robert Loy also received the coveted superior rating and first place. The Mixed Ensemble, the Boys' Quartet, and Glenn Coven, baritone solo, were honored with excellent ratings. When we mention any phase of music in Charleroi High School, our thoughts auto- matically go to June Belgie. She has worked steadily with all the choruses for three years as an accompanist. She is very capable at this work, and is a valuable asset to our music department. The vocal division develops not only the musical side of our students, but also the cultural side. It is really something to be proud of, and a part of life that the school could not do without. And of course, everyone knows that directing all these vocal groups is Miss McCague. It isn't necessary to say that her's is a job well done. We all know that! but we will say that the School is very grateful for her long hours of service so that we may have music.

It is half time at the stadium, and why is everyone remaining in his seat? You know i.-the band, of course. Didn't you see them carry the portable band stand to the center of the field directly in front of the concrete stands? And look, there's Ed all set to go. Now you see them coming across the field in that fast stepping trot, and soon some unusual arrange- ment will be ours to enjoy. Thereis Larryg there are the Majorettesg come on maestro, letis have music. That was the routine every Friday evening during football season. It was that something extra for ' customers. It proved to be that something extra to instill school spirit in the student bodyg at the something extra which drove the team on, Do you remember The St. Louis Blues numberg the Transportation routineg A Stairway to tht Starsng A Sentimental Journey and the many others? And do you recall when they put the lights aut, and we were treated to a novel rendition of 'The Star Spangled Banner? At the stadium, at the pep rallies, at the bonfires, at the parades-our band is always there, and always a hit. Perhaps not so spectacular but none the less important and an integral part of our entire music set-up is the orchestra. It furnishes the entr'acte music at the class plays, provides appropriate music at baccalaureate and commencement activitiesg portions of it furnished music for the hair-styling show and the fashion show. That portion of it called the Swing Band entertains on assemblies and plays fox some of the school dances in our gym. The orchestra consists of 40 members from both high school and junior high school. Both the band and the orchestra participated in the district competition at California and came tlirtaaggli with a second place rating. Both the band and the orchestra entertain a very appreciative audience with their annual con- cexts. Outstanding combinations of these musical or- ginizations are the clarinet quartet composed of iiernard Macliarland, John XY'olfe, Bill Long and George Luseg the trumpet trio composed of David Faust, Phil Consonery and Sam Levy, and of course, cur outstanding cornetist, David Faust. And at the helm of the ship of music We hail and salute Edward Sweadner whose accomplish- ments with the band and orchestra are well estab- lished facts. Ed in action Eigbiqy-nine BAND lsr ROXV-li.

These girls are chosen by Mr. Glunt at the end of their sophomore year and automatically hold rhe job until they graduate. The girls feel it is an honor to be selected as one of the social hostesses.

It has prospered under the leadership of president, Catherine Russell, secretary, Dorothy Sezawichg treasurer, Jean Auther and the sponsorship of Mr. Hawk. Wfhen it began last year, it was thought that it would stimulate the students' interest in good books, and possibly be the beginning of a private library for each student. This it has done because of the excellent selection of books obtainable at reasonable prices. To raise funds the club sponsored a dance early in the year. A little later they sold very attrac- tive charms and pins. March 9th was a big a day for its members. They took a tour of Pittsburgh. There they visit- ed Phipps Conservatory, the Carnegie Library and Museum, the Foster Memorial and the campus of the University of Pittsburgh. The day was brought to an exciting climax by viewing the famed Ice Follies. Just recently the Teen-Age-Book-Club has started a rental collection for the benefit of the stu- dents and teachers. The club supplies the library with new and better reference books which it otherwise could not afford. The main purpose of the Teen-Age-Book-Club is the sale and distribution of worthwhile books to the students of Charleroi High School. lst ROW4l.. Marriott, M. Whckerliam, li. Leydn, L. Smi li, li.

The main purpose of the club is merely to provide some good physical recreation for its members, and so one doesn't need to be a professional acrobat in order to join. These boys learn to work on parallel bars, horse, springboard, and mats. Since most boys enjoy tumbling, a great deal of time is spent at this. They practice numerous tricks such as flips, jump rolls, balancing acts and building pyraminds. The boys cooperate with one another by working in groups and helping each other on springboard flips and other apparatus work. This helps the club to be the big success that it is, and we know it will continue to be one of our top clubs next year. W'ho knows, we may have 4 future Charles Atlas in Charleroi Hifvh School.

You can distin uish P 5 g them by their working clothes of white blouses, black skirts and red and black arm bands. It is their duty to see that no one except those holding reserved seat tickets occupy the first two rows of balcony seats. They show the fans to their seats after checking their tickets to make sure that they are for reserved seats. Two of the girls take care of the reserved seats downstairs. Their capable lady in charge is Ann Buchanan. It,s her job to distribute and collect the arm bands, and appoint girls to their respective sections. These usherettes were organized last year at the suggestion of Mr. Stepanian.

One Hundred Twelve FCICITESALL As the Monongahela River winds its way past our town, its waters brush the banks bordering one of Charleroi's most historic and memory- filled structures. For at the lower edge of town, close to our newly- erected radio station, stands the home oz the grid heroes of C.H.S.-- the Charlerw High School Stadium. This year the stadiumys green painted wills absorbed new sights, new memor' 3 rfv' faces to keep in its treasure chest of foot- ball lore. Yes, the stadium absorbed these new sight , but it has gazed also, probably for the las' time upon the names and deed. of Jael' Green, l'Porky Zuraw, Indian Joe Car- dinale, Billy Shaffer, and others. These names shall be placed in their respective places along with the other players who have carried the banner of C.H.S. through the grid wars. As for this year, there are many remem- brances we may recall in years to come . , . Charleroiis fine start with a 32-0 win over St. George's High School of Pittsburgh. Shaffefs wonderful 31 yard jaunt in our disappointing loss to Donora. Injury-plagued Joe Cardinale, who did not see as much action as he would have liked. The hair-raising and spine tingling win over Schenley 13-12, in which the whole stadium rocked with excitement as Shaffer scored the winning T.D. and extra point with 3 minutes left. Shaffer again running 65 yards for a T.D. on the first play from scrimmage in our 53-7 rout of Brownsville. BRIEFS Duquesne -- Mud - Nuff Sed The Last Minute NValt1 with Vfashingion when all seemed lost until almost too late. The still questionable win by Clairton.

N'-sen nil was hlaek, Billy Shaffer tlir'-xx the teaehdown pass to Big Mike liz: iezewski with the clock showing 40 -.eeords renaaining. Then it happened! Lit- tlektried ple e kicking expert, George Kirandy, rushed to the field and calmly split the upiights to throw the field, high school and town into bedlam. iflwese are just a few of the highlights that will linger in the stadium, C.H.S.'s Valhalla of Qiriddom. But we have glorified just the heroes. There are the others, the un- sung heroes to be glorified. The coaches- head eoaeh 'KRnb Currie will never be equalled as a fighter until the final gun has x'J'.ll1LlCdQ the aides, Mike Booth and Gooch Pennline whose job it was to whip fhe boys into shape. And there are the underelassmen such as Mike and Clark and XVheaties, who perhaps will make a name for themselves in years to come. But in future years when the others will speak the names of their grid heroes of yes- teryear, we will he proud to say that our team was the team of 1949. And we're proud of 'em.

And sure enough, the dope sheets proved true to form. lfor Charleroi and California did wind up the season in a dead heat Cwith no thanks to Monessenj. The playoff at the Pitt Stadium was a thriller and a great game to wing the game with Homestead was a disappointment and a tough one to lose. But the Comeback Kids of Charleroi left their fans .' ith little to he desired in the way of fight and drive until the final huzzer. For who can forget the ufeond game with California when thrill after thrill was produced on the court, elimaxed hy the sud- den death basket of Charley Brown.

BASEBALL The valley's baseball banner again flew atop the towers of C.H.S. For as long as anyone can re- member Charlcroi has always been a hot baseball town. Last year our diamond-:ers captured the section flag, and continued along the trail until the quarter final eliminations. They were beaten in a heart-breaking game by Carmichaels, 1-0. Led by one of the finest moundsmen to come out of Charleroi baseball ranks, Freddie Uhlman, who is now pitching for,York, Pa., Charleroi provided many thrills and spills for the fans. fForgetting all about the Error Day celebrated by Monessen.j Among the outstanding plays was the game-saving and game-ending triple play started by Tote Lucas. As another season starts we know that C.H.S. will hold its own on any diamond.
