I 3 .Qdlif ' Mr. Matz, our principal, performs duties which are indispensable to the management of Chartiers. Many of these are obvious and many are things which we take for granted but which, if not as prominent, are iust as important. In gratefulness for all things he has so willingly done to make our years at Chartiers pleasant and rewarding, we dedicate the 1950-51 issue of the Charconge to Mr. Matz. Mr. Matz and Mrs. Porcaro ' 7 when JD, 5 . As you have approached Commencement day, that last day on which you receive your diploma to signify graduation from the twelfth grade, your hopes and plans no doubt have run quite high. Yours is the eagerness and the impatience of youth. May you hold to this eagerness, and much of the impatience too! It is due much to this eagerness and im- patience of youth that many things are accom- plished. Where the staid judgment and con- sideration of we who are older holds us back, youth impetuously plunges in and more often than not accomplishes. So, keep your eagerness, and keep your impatience. But let me also add, keep your ideals high. It is only as you keep your ideals high that this eagerness and impatience can become a wholesome and constructive force. Then with your heads held high you can face forward to meet both success and failure. You will meet both. But never forget that so long as the eagerness remains fresh and there is still some of the impatience to keep pressing on, and the ideals are kept high, then failures will not dismay you but provide incentive to go on to success. Mr. Frank Matz Waynesburg College, B. S. University of Pittsburgh, M. E. Uwzj Many events are taking place in the realm of world politics today which from all indica- tions will not permit our American youth to plan and to live their lives as they would choose. lt appears that the present trends of world affairs cannot be ignored in planning their future. These years are critical years of confusion, indecision, and unrest. What can our American boys and girls expect of the fu- ture? Even though these are confusing times, we can take some satisfaction from those cour- ageous men and women who founded this na- tion. They, too, lived in most critical times. lt was most difficult for them to see clearly through conflicting ideas and philosophies and to select the main ideals toward which they wished to work. They realized that they must first establish the political, religious, and econ- omic principles upon which the new nation was to be established and then to organize those principles to secure their acceptance by the people. Our job today is very much like theirs. We'll have to examine very carefully the different idealogies that are demanding our time, our talent, and our money. We must remember that America's ideals fostered by our schools have kept us free and that next to spiritual values the most reliable resource we have is our young people. Education is pre- paring more people every year to contribute to the progress of our United States. The young people of our nation represent a vital part of the human assets of our country. We dare not underestimate their importance in civic and community affairs and in the growth of our land. Their careers are all-important. The real strength of our nation lies in the strength of character of its youth. Therefore, we must not neglect our schools in these times of rearmament and cold war. Furthermore, we must not overlook the values that are con- tributed to our educational program by the Church, radio, television, press, and lecture platform. We must consider money spent for education of our young people as an invest- ment in their careers and in the strength of our U. S. A. Now, we must have faith in the future. Remember that each generation has contrib- uted more than the one preceding. Let us stand firmly on the premise that democracy and peace are the issues of the day and that their fate in this generation of crisis will likely determine the course of civilization for years to come. Cherish the ideal that democracy is a way of life, our way of life. We must believe in it, live it, and practice it. Herein lies our future. RALPH D. BLUEBAUGH Washington 8- Jefferson College - A. B.

The American people have placed heavy respon- sibility for the development of their most pre- cious national resource, their children, square- ly upon the shoulders of our school board. Members of our school board are elected to office at the general elections. Each politi- cal party presents its own nominee and the nominee who receives the highest number of votes is elected. He serves for a six year term. Members of the school board hold office on a Rotation Plan. Every other year two members are elected. They are elected a member and can be elected or appointed to a higher position. Members of the school board control edu- cation, which is a force more and more com- monly recognized as one of great power. They keep the art of local control and home rule alive. They take care of our financial prob- lems and any misunderstandings that may occur among the students and faculty. The members, also, prepare us for the future. The school board holds a meeting once every month, unless a special meeting is called by the President. The board members are local, state and national officials. They are paid the highest compliments parents bestow-to them they entrust the welfare of their children. S E N I O R S .JL ZZ. L. to R. Seated: V. Pres., R. Miller, Advisor, Miss Peacock, President, L. Polk. Standing: Secretary, Mary Kaste, Treasurer, D. Armani Well here we are Seniors at last. As we look back it was a long, hard trip but we had plenty of laughs and a lot of fun during our four years stay at C. T. H. S. Remember way back in '47 when we were Freshmen? Our class was under the able direction of Miss Elaine Furnier. And wasn't our Freshman Party a huge success even if we were still smarting from our lipstick wounds. The next year we were Sophomores. The election of class ofticers was a great responsi- bility this year but with Miss Lawton showing us the way the task was much easier. Every- body had a good time at the Sophomore dance. And this was the year we were asked to ioin the various clubs about the school. Boy, we took to that like a duck takes to water! Our Junior year was full of fun and sur- prises. It sure was a task raising money for the Prom but we came through in fine style. I'll bet we wouldn't have made it without Mr. Heil. Who will ever forget our first dramatical ettorts in the form ofthe Junior play, A Little Honey, and Mr. D. K. Ernst, the psychologist and magician who hypnotized those kids on the stage? And the money from selling our plasticoat book covers went a long way to- ward raising money for that big event on May 5, the Junior Prom. We won't forget our Junior year for a long time to come. And now at last we're Seniors. We have accomplished a lot in our four years even if there still are some puzzled looks on the faces of the Solid Geometry students. The Senior Play, The Mystery of Crazy Canyon Ranch, was full of excitement. Those shots scared everybody in the audience. We can't overlook Miss Peacock. Where would the senior class be without her guiding hand? Everybody is wondering who will be the May King and May Queen and although the seniors are anxious for graduation day to arrive, it will bring to an end all too soon the activities ofthe class of '51 at Chartiers High School.

Forever! dzlo ' As we leave Chartiers, we begin to realize the value of our years spent here. We have gained not only in knowledge and in stature, but also in experience. Also we realize that without the patience and fore- bearance of our teachers and parents, we could not now take our places on the roster of the graduating class of 1951. We do not take our leave as gladly as we had thought we would way back when! -but rather thoughtfully, attempt- ing to look ahead into the future which will be our years of fulfillment. We know that as we shall look back on the days spent here, we will remember most vividly not the serious things in our school lives, but mostly the brighter, humor- ous happenings of those days. We'll re- member the little things-such as the time Assistant Editor NORMA JEAN RECK Editor RODNEY MILLER when one of our aspiring classmates re- moved one of the gas iets in the science room, or when another of our innocent brothers accidentally turned in the fire alarm, and back in our Junior year, we ye- member the minor explosions in Chemistry class. We will never forget these incidents and, in years to come, they will remind us of our eventful school days. lt is generally thought that America is facing a crucial period in its history. We believe that Chartiers has prepared us ably for the decisions we must make in the fu- ture. We will try to maintain the Chartier- ian ideals of living and to be a credit to the America of which we now become an active part. U D E R C L A S S M E N The Junior Class, under the capable guid- ance of Mr. Frank Heil, has a great responsi- bility placed upon its shoulders. lts task is that of sponsoring the outstanding event of the year, the Junior and Senior Prom. The Prom is annually a huge success and with Mr. Heil again leading the Juniors there seems little doubt about its success this year. The dance is formal and the girls wear corsages. The auditorium, which is decorated with brightly colored paper and glittering lights, is the ballroom 'For the evening. Everyone has J a wonderful time dancing to the music of an outstanding orchestra. The Junior Class will also put on its an- nual class play. lt will be the first stab at dramatics for most of the participants, but is bound to be a huge success because the class is always willing to give one hundred percent participation. The Juniors will sponsor other projects during the year and whatever they undertake you may be sure that it will turn out forthe best because the class has the spirit and initiative that goes with success. lst Row-R.

Premro 'kiwlff Jhw ' The iob of financing our yearbook was handled very ably by our Busi- nes Staff under the supervision of Miss Loula Cherpes, Advisor. Sponsoring round and square dances, selling re- freshments at athletic events, and sell- ing acknowledgments were only a few of their iobs. Because of the hard work of this group of seniors, our T951 Charconge was made financially pos- sible and we cannot give too much credit to the members of the Senior class who have, through the selling of acknowledgments, helped the Business Staff in this gigantic task. The composing of our annual pub- lication, the Charconge, is taken care of by the Editorial Staff. This is a large task to assign to a group, as has been proven every year since our first yearbook was published, but under the direction of the sponsor, Mrs. Stewart, the editor, and the assistant- editor, we think the T951 staff has met the challenge admirably. Although deadlines and difficulties arose, these were met and overcome, and the Charconge was sent to press. lt is the staff's sincere hope that this book will be enjoyed by all.

Smith Jfmgwmwrswzfrpfwp Under the capable supervision of Miss Jean McCurry, our Junior and Senior plays were two which our class and all other classes will long be proud. The fine performances of the actors and actresses were nearly unsur- passable. The scenery was so perfect that one would almost think it had been created by professionals. These plays were produced through long hours of painstaking rehearsal and planning on the part of Miss McCurry, the performers, the stage managers, and everyone connected in any way with their production. The Junior play, presented last year, was a comedy entitled A Little Honey. The Sen- ior play was a three act, western mystery comedy. It was entitled, The Mystery of Crazy Canyon Ranch. We, the class of 5l , feel that if the Jun- ior and Senior plays of the future are as well put on as ours were that Chartiers' plays will go down in the history of the theater.

Chimento, has developed into the finest band representing a Class B school in this district. Led by our drum major, maiorettes, and flag twirlers, our band thrilled Chartiers' fans game after game as the maroon and gold uni- formed instrumentalists took the field. Every- one is greatly pleased by this highly improved organization of approximately 45 pieces which performed at all our football games and pep rallies. In this, our 1951 issue of the Charconge, we wish to salute our Chartiers High School band. The cheerleaders, under the incompar- able supervision of Miss Mabel Peacock, have completed another very successful year. Char- tiers athletic fans know that our athletic events would be far from complete without our color- ful and attractive cheerleaders. Five members of this year's squad are seniors. Dot Armani, Mona Nystrom, Norma Reck, Norma Seik, and Ruth Weaver will graduate while Delores Freno, Velma Hoffman, and Agnes Warne are juniors. The cheerleaders have worked hard to inspire the student body to support our athletes. Every year new cheerleaders must be chosen. They are selected by Miss Peacock and the other cheerleaders. This year the new cheerleaders that were chosen were Regina Bizzack, Audrey Hower, Elizabeth Lenart, Ruth Whitesell, and Eleanor Zurca. Their activities this year will be limited mostly to cheerlead- ing at the reserve and junior high basketball games. We are sure that they will continue to uphold the fine reputation of our cheerleaders. r i i SOD 35 Isl'.Row-J. Whitesell, D. Berry S Finney, E. Markel, F. Hess D Schott N. Monda, M.

All the members took active part in keeping the school clean and directing hall traffic. This club is made up of representatives from each home room. The President this year was George Smith and the club was sponsored by Miss Gey. Again this year the club sponsored its an- nual Cleanup Campaign. The Student Council also put on a talent show. The principal aims of the Student Council are to promote sportsmanship throughout the school and to bring about better understanding between students and faculty. LIBRARIANS-'Ist Row-B. Mikus, M.

The duties of a librarian are to check books in and out, keep the library in order, and to take care of fines. She also helps us to find books in the library and supplies us with any information that she can. Our library is made up of fiction and non- fiction books, magazines, newspapers and many encyclopedias. We all enjoy our library facilities and appreciate the efforts of the stu- dent librarians in making it possible for us to have an efficient library.

The Glee Club is composed of boys and girls of the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes, and is under the excellent guidance of Miss Irene Grable, It is made up of approxi- mately 'l00 well-trained voices, one of the largest choral groups this high school has ever had. Separate rehearsals for the boys and girls are held on Monday, Wednesday, Thurs- day, and Friday. They have supplied the stu- dent body as well as the public with musical mlgmm, selections of all types on many occasions dur- ing the year. Miss Grable, with the aid of the accompanists, Dona Scott, and Vonnie Weaver, have transformed this group of young people into a choral group of well-trained voices. Baccalaureate is the most important perform- ance for our Glee Club, and members and di- rector work hard to make it the success it always is. mmf lst row: G. Smith, B. Mikus, R.

The girls held a Square Dance at the beginning of the school year, and the dance was a great suc- cess. Boy! Those girls really believe in co- operation. For Christmas the club members gave gifts to make a Sunshine Box for a crip- pled friend. The Y Clubs also sponsored a Christmas Carol Sing, which every high school student and teacher could attend. The Hi-Y and Sr. Tri-Hi-Y also had a joint Christmas meeting at which they made dolls for the hos- pital. In the Spring, the club sponsored a party at the Children's Home and also took part in presenting the Easter program. At the end of our club activities the girls prepared for their annual Mothers' and Daughters' Ban- quet. Miss Harriette Mumper, the Sr. Tri-Hi-Y Club advisor, is always ready and willing. It is her support and friendliness which gives the girls extra interest in their activities. The Junior Y Club has also been active. They held a Christmas Juke Box Dance which was very successful. They participated in the Carol Sing and had a Christmas Social. Later, in the Spring of the year, they took part in the Easter Pageant with the Senior Tri-Hi-Y. The Junior Y Club also held ioint meetings with the Senior Y Clubs. The members of the Junior Tri-Hi-Y are taken from the eighth and ninth grades. These girls have a purpose which expresses their high ideals. It is To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. Miss Katherine Karabuskin, the club advisor, is ready to solve any problems which are brought up during the meeting. Her work is greatly appreciated. fm' ,swim afqamgaum FOLLOW THE GLEAM To the knights in the days of old, Keeping watch on the mountain height Came a vision of Holy Grail And a voice through the waiting night.

This club, under the able direction of a new sponsor, Mr. John Riggle, is rapidly becoming one ofthe leading organizations ofthe school. The Camera Club's main Iob is to take pic- tures for the yearbook. Yes, all those wonder- ful informal shots in the yearbook are the work of our Camera Club. A huge number of stu- dents applied for membership in the club this year, proving the fact that the club is increas- ing in popularity among the student body. The members of the club take pictures in the club's own darkroom. The club made small prints of the senior's graduation pictures and sponsored a juke box dance in order to raise money for buying film.

Chartiers High School is very proud of the girls who make up a group called the Sub Deb Club. It has contributed much toward the so- cial life of the students during and after school hours. The members have held fashion shows and dances. Two of their most outstanding projects have been the Christmas Dance and the Coronade. The Christmas Dance this year was a formal and was very appropriately called the Sno-Ball. The music was pre- sented by Lee Barrett and his Orchestra. The dance was a big hit with the boys because cor- sages were banned. We all thought that it was a good idea. The next factor which made the dance a success was the display of co- operation and willingness to work among the club members. The club also presented a program to the student' and faculty for Christmas. Everyone enioyed 'he program and we especially en- joyed the part in which a few members of our faculty expressed their talents. The club advisor is none other than our friendly and capable Home Economics Instruc- tor, Mrs. Ruth Ferguson. Although she is busy with classes, she manages to find time to help these girls along with their problems and ac- tivities. The Coronade takes place each year in the merry month of May. It is a ceremony at which a girl is crowned Queen of May and a boy, Lord of May. Another girl is chosen as the Spirit of Chartiers. These students are chosen for their friendliness, poise, leadership, and for qualities that everyone desires. Our Queen of May was Dorothy Carroll, and our Lord of May was Glenn Arthur. The honor of being chosen as Spirit of Chartiers was be- stowed upon Dona Wylie. These students well deserved the honor. After the ceremony, a program was presented for their Highnesses' pleasure. The Grand March followed and then the dance was held. The Coronade is sponsored by the Sub Deb Club. fn , Ist Row-Attendants: P. Fabian, V. Zavislak, M.

They are a group of seven men who are courteous and patient with the sometimes high spirited students on the busses, and we think they deserve an extra note of appreciation.

The squad hit its highwater mark about half way through the season with its 94-52 victory over our arch rival, Canonsburg.

Prem- ro had a first period pin in thirty-four seconds against Claysville. Our team also participated in the W. P. I. A. L. Tournament at Waynesburg. There were six seniors on the team this year. They were: Don Hordies, Joe DeWitte, Ed Premro, Bill Novotny, John Hibbert, and Clarence Melone. Coach Abraham entered almost ci full team in the second annual Washington County Novice's Tournament. Four boys went into the finals with three taking first place and one taking second.

Last year's baseball team was one of the most outstanding teams in the history of base- ball at Chartiers. The team finished in first place in Section 4 with a record of 6 wins and 2 defeats. The team won twice from Trinity and East Washington and split even in two games with both Washington and Canons- burg. ln the sectional playoffs, Chartiers was beaten 8-0, by a strong Burgettstown team. This year's team will be weakened by the loss of such fine senior players as Roger Nixon, Fred Delost, Glenn Arthur, and Malcolm Ful- lum. These men formed the nucleus of last year's team but Mr. Mullins has his hopes up high for another successful season with six lettermen returning. They are: Louis Young, Bob Brahs, Henry Tomsic, Bill Borza, Frank Lucy and Jerry Yarkosky. BASEBALL RECORD CTHS 0 ,.... Canonsburg 5 ...... Canonsburg ,. 4 .... ....... T rinity .... 12 ..,..,.
