Here we learn to live with other people, to share responsibility, and to appreciate the opinion of the other fellow. High school provides us with an education that will enable us to go on to higher learning or to get a iob. Friendships are made that last forever. We have our laughs and our letdownsg our triumphs and our tragedies, our gay, carefree days and our serious, crucial ones. There are proms and parties and also tests and homework. But all these are part ofthe best years of our lives. I 5 A preview of the story wl1icl1 is about to unfold We took one port work, Added Q dash of ploy, Mixed it together- ln just the right wcy. We're proud of our school And we're glod to soy, We learned by doing- Doy by doy. .C -A-v THE PEOPLE Intrndu 8 . I I Y,-Ax 4 YA 1 fit 'f' f , ,gf , 'Jfvfl 24 4 J PX ' a.

Prepare to assume the role of leaders OFFICERS Robert Springer President Edward Schrum Vice-President Joanne Sabo Secretary-Treasurer As boys and girls reach the third year of high school they become more familiar with Derry Township High School and its activities. Class rings, new, bright, and shiny, helped to distinguish them among the other students. By now they are prominent members of the school and have learned to accept their respon- sibilities, however large or small they might be. Being iuniors, there are new subiects to be adjusted to. Our general and college prepara- tory students are confronted with plane geom- etry, chemistry, French and the usual American history and English Ill. Our commercial students aren't to be forgotten either. Shorthand and typing ll along with bookkeeping, business Eng- lish, and sales provided them with a full sched- ule. A certain number of the class are chosen for the National Honor Society for their out- standing scholastic achievements along with their personality, character, and ability for lead- ership. The iunior year is perhaps the best of all because it is midway: One is now well ac- quainted enough to really enioy the school, and the other students, and yet the total responsi- bility of leading the school does not yet have to be assumed. It is always a good year. . . . preparing for the biggest event THE JUNIURS Found to be promising and full of talent g some serious thinking 40 The Juniors got off to an excellent start this year by electing a group of officers which combines variety and versatility. Bob Springer, president, is an outstanding football player. Known throughout the school for his scholastic and social prow- ress is their vice-president, Edward Schrum. Secretary-treasurer Joanne Sabo is a viva- cious cheerleader who helped spark our teams on to victory. lt might be said, in a certain sense, that the juniors played all year-and everyone was glad of it! On the sports scene they were well represented. Players Ted Pynos, Clarence Smith, Dave Vallana, and Robert Springer displayed their ability on the gridiron, while Regis Skoloda, Don Falenski, and Jim Ankney in key positions sparked both the football and basketball teams. The Junior Class Play, Boys About Babette , was a great success. The lead was double cast with Rosemarie Rich and Rita Mataldi characterizing the typical teen-age daughter of provident and per- plexed parents, Ed Schrum and Mary Lou Campbell. The 55'ers really worked hard on their Christmas Card Campaign to raise money forthe Junior-Senior Prom, and when April 30th rolled around they really played. Dancing in the beautifully decorated gym was to the music of the Johnny Murphy Orchestra. To play leading roles in the operetta Rosemarie Rich, James McGinnis, and Vaughn Piantine were chosen, and well- chosen they were to be sure. This was truly a successful and event- ful year for the Juniors. Row l-M. Wano, R. Kubistek, H Flickinger, B, Hodgson, D, Delia M. Brant, E. Barnhart, A. M01 nofski, B. Hullenbaugh. Row 2-W.

And we're happy to be able to answer, Right there in the midst of almost every school activity. Among them, many were musically inclined. Robert Mumau and James Boyer represented the class in minor roles in the operetta while almost the entire pageantry of the Christmas play featured soph- omores. Band and chorus members were num- erous and one. Harry Switzer was chosen to at- tend both county choruses and served as solo- ist with the county band. Headlining the maiorettes are Joann Baum, Joanne Andrako, Nancy Hoyle, Shirley Panizzi, and Janet McKee and wonderful highsteppers they are, too, and three attractive second-year lasses, Alice Gelston, Ann Adams, and Janet Koway were recently picked as sweater girls for our band. Sportsmen? The class of 1956 has them. Tom Barberich, Lawrence Burd, Walter Corey, and Joe Smith participated in both football and basketball and the sophomore's star athlete, Tom Pavlik, proved himself to be a natural in all sports.

THE SUPHU CRES Possess peppy, pleasant personalities An outstanding feature of the soph- omore class this year is the high potential of its members. There is talent among them in almost every field of endeavor. ln numbers it was a large class in our school and many personalities emerged at the very beginning of the term. Another char- acteristic of these boys and girls is their T spirit of active and energetic participation. Not overlooked when it came to beauty, Ann Adams was chosen as the queen's attendant at the annual Snowflake Coronation. The Sophomores proved wise indeed in selecting their leaders. Joyce Bundy served efficiently as president, assisted by Lawrence Burd, vice-president, while Tom Pavlik, secretary-treasurer, kept the rec- ords. The adviser was the well-loved Mr. Urch. We hope these boys and girls will continue their strong school spirit which added so much to the entire year. . . man with a horn 44 I ,, , p'mf ' ' f,, .

But now, at the end of the year some of that color has worn off and these students seem to be a fine group of people. And, to be fair, can you blame them for being green? Of course not. And you would be too, if suddenly you were confronted with some 500 new faces, 25 new teachers, a new building and many many new systems and rules. Everyone is iust a little unsure when they start a new venture. But since this year's freshies are such a re- sourceful and adaptable class it didn t take them long to get into the swing of high school life. The first year students had to get used to new subjects and classes. The most amazing of which was gym. Quickly, they became interested in the vari- ous clubs, musical activities, and athletics. Dances and parties were not things that the kids in high school did, but they were part of their everyday life.

The operetta employed the services of Janet Greitok, Frank Graham, and Richard Gelsdorf. Janet and Frank displayed both ability and grace in a solo Vienese waltz. Frank, incidentally, was stage manager for Pickles . And could anyone ever forget that super sleuth Bum- ski lalias Dick Gelsdorfb whose every action was perfectly timed and precise and whose antics constantly convulsed the audience. Another boy with dancing feet is Jack Kep- ple. Sportscasting in this crew, we came up with the names Richard Falenski, a very promising basketball player on the JV squad and Ed Antolik, who showed talent on the football field. ln managing capaci- ties on the teams were Eugene Bisi and James Horrell. Characteristically, our freshmen always want to be doing something. They are eager, alert, and ambitious to get the most out of school that they can. This is the something which we hope never wears off. . . strolling along together 1 1+ ' ll 1 , .f THE PRES-HM but not for long l I ' . ' 513.1 ,- 4, E 1 ..3'-.fi ,W if ,, .4 afh Q J 1 I 1 Y Q 9 .

STUDE T COUNCIL Selected by the students they serve The Student Council under the guid- ance of Mr. Struble is iust about the most active organization here at Derry Town- ship. The members chosen were: two from each iunior and senior home room and one from each freshmen and sophomore homeroom. The swearing-in ceremony took place before the entire student body. Since that time the students with the arm bands have worked very hard to improve conditions throughout the school. Among their ser- vices are: The running of refreshment stands at the football games and in the school at noon, dancing in the gym at noon, a lost and found department, dis- missal duty and many others. The Hallo- ween, Christmas, and Post-Prom dances are special extras. This governing body of students ex- ists solely for the purpose of helping to keep our school a well-regulated, pleus- ant place to be. . . . all eyes on Joanie L and GULD N? Ziff An open letter from the editors A few chewed-up pencils, a waste- basket full of crumpled papers, an empty bottle of glue and a pair of scissors, a tally sheet, receipt books, a sheaf of bills marked paid, and oh! yes, two long red pencils, dull at the point. This is all that remains of a once very active group, the yearbook staff. Starting in September, we selected materials, colors, and covers, and our ad- vertising and subscription campaigns began in earnest. And what results! We present for the first time a 3D cover and all past records in collection amounts were broken. As the year progressed the produc- tion members worked at the seemingly endless tasks of writing and rewriting lthose red pencils belonged to our advisor, Miss Smithl, planning and taking pictures, and copying the dummy. Cooperation and many hours of work were demanded and supplied. But 'twas not all work and no play, for we had our share of fun working to- gether. Special thanks goes to Mr. Fiorina who supervised the business stat? so well and to Miss Smith who worked untiringly to help us attain our goal.

The read- ings range from blood-chilling dramatics to hi- larious humor and through the fields of oratori- cal declamation and extemporaneous speaking. At these speech contests in different high schools, the student acquires a sense of poise and de- velops one of the finest arts-that of being a good speaker and an attentive listener. The Forensics attended several regular meetings this year at different high schools, and they also went to Student Congress. They chose Jane Hall as president, Mildred Slezak as vice president, and Michele Yacobush as secretary-treasurer. Their new advisor is Mrs. Markle. F. F. A. The F. F.A. is progressing more and more each year. In February, the club held a ban- quet and also sponscred a round and square dance to celebrate national F. F. A. week. This spring the F. F. A. has acquired ten acres in back of the school in which to plant oats and corn. definitely the humorous type scanning the This is a proiect undertaken for raising money In April there were County Contests in which any member had a chance to win a free trip to State College. One of the contests was a parlia- mentary procedure in which two officers, Vernon Ressler, president and Bud Miller, treasurer par- ticipated. BRCDADCAST CLUB Broadcasting with a professional touch was merely a matter of course with the station B.U.Z.Z. Having a small group meant that planning, writing, checking and rechecking the scripts were iust some of the special duties of every broadcast club member. Their programs feature sports, the spotlighting of senior per- sonalities, fashion commentaries, and the waited-for gems of gossip. Early in the year, the broadcasters started cutting snowflakes and planning their annual Snowflake Coronation . Picking the Queen of Snow and an attendant was one of their more pleasant tasks. The school's new public address system added the perfect touch for fine broadcasting from an en- ergetic group. farm papers B.U.Z.Z. directors li 1 1' 4 ' ' JIS rf' ,, f Q3 2 ., A, K 3 1 U ' .M 1 5-2 ,gf -ni eg?

Limited to up- perclassmen, it continues the work of the classes, which this year for the first time are conducted entirely in the foreign tongue. Gay times and good parties, chaperoned by Mr. Caputo, the director, are also character- istic of this organization, and each fall we look for and see costumed frenchies roaming around. Helping to make French Week a success at Seton Hill College is also another event that the French Club tackles. Dining, movies, lec- tures, and tours complete the day of entertain- ment. HISTURY CLUB Under the capable supervision of Mr. Pilato, this club has been very active. One of the most interesting phases of its work is the study of lo- cal history. Conducted tours of historical sites find great favor with the members. This year Gettysburg Battlefield was visited as well as a contemporary landmark, The Greater Pittsburgh Airport. Junior and senior members enjoyed the conference of Junior Historians of Westmore- land County held at Ligonier and at which Mary Lou Campbell delivered a speech. The annual spring week-end trip took the boys and girls to Washington, D. C. this year. A newly under- taken project was the publication of a school newspaper. CUMMERCIAL CLUB This organization is composed of junior and senior commercial students. lt is a club cus- tom to have a party for the senior members sponsored by the junior members. This year that party was in March. The club enjoyed a lunch after which there was entertainment and dancing. The Commercial-ites have a sure-fire money making scheme. They sell blue and gold beanies with D. T. H. S and individual names applicjued on them. Dances after sev- eral basketball games have also been held by the group. Visits were made to different business es- tablishments that would add to the commercial student's knowledge and understanding of this field. French can be fun , . . should we go there? . . . try before you buy Offer an opportunity for friendship O O O This society has been in effect in our school for seventeen years. To qualify for the Na- tional Honor Society one must be outstanding in scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Membership in this organization is the highest honor any student can obtain in high school. Each spring, five percent of the iunior class and ten percent of the senior class are initiated as new members. Selling Easter candy is an an- nual proiect as is their supervision of the indi- vidual picture taking which occurs each spring. Top event is the NHS-Tri-Hi-Y banquet. Leaders among leaders are Fritz Squib, George Patrick, Lavina Mataldi, and Barbara Switzer, president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer respect- ively. MUNOC-RAM CLUB The Monogram Club, under the leadership of President Sam Raiacich and the sponsor, Mr. Conti is comprised of those individuals who have earned at least two letters in either football, basketball, or track. The cheerleaders become members automatically when they reach senior status. The members of the club worked very diligently to raise sufficient funds to cover the cost of jackets, which they bought for some of the senior members. In addition to its dances and skating parties, the club promotes the annual faculty-varsity basketball game. To be a Mono- gram man is the aim of every athletically- minded individual in the school. LATIN CLUB The Latin Club, under the capable super- vision of Mr. Caputo, is composed of all students enrolled in Latin classes. Those who believe Latin to be a dead language would soon change their minds if afforded the opportunity to sit in on one of these club meetings. The high cultural back- ground offered to boys and girls is emphasized. Many humorous and interesting stories of Ro- man mythology are recounted. The realistic initiation of students dressed as Romans is a real event in the school year. And this year they ventured forth to Pittsburgh to view an ex- citing spectacle at the Buhl Planetarium. . top ranking torchbearers . . . agile and active athleticalfy . . . friends, Romans , fellow students' N.

Help balance the ledger ol learning USHERS CLUB A female organization comprised of jun- iors, this club could well be called the welcom- ing committee of D. T.H.S. . Attired in their traditional outfits of blue jumpers, white blouses, and pert little hats, they can be heard saying, This way, please. Also active socially, the girls hold dances and parties to be enjoyed by all members, and conduct numerous bake sales throughout the year. Since this is a club of ser- vice, all their profits are used to buy some article which will be of benefit to the school. Hats off to these girls who represent and serve our school so well. TRI - HI -Y The Tri-Hi-Y, under the excellent guidance of Miss Kasperik, carries on its services through- out the school year. This group of cooperative girls with their motto to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character are our future leaders. Along with lending a helping hand to new students and bringing thought- provoking facts before the entire student body, the group provides aid for veterans and par- ticipates in a discussion course entitled Teen Talk . The members also find time for social life with the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance and their combined banquet with the National Hon- or Society. MUS C CLUB A new club at our school this year, the Music Club is comprised of members of the band and chorus. Each home room has a represen- tative and it is the duty of each of these repre- sentatives to collect the money for tickets from the operetta and concerts. The club goes on several trips during the year. This year they attended the Marine Band Concert in November and lndiana's annual Swing-Out, Good News , in the spring. As their president they chose the talented Milly Slezak. Gail Brant, an adept musician and singer was chosen as vice-presi- dent.

Music, maestro-there's a melody in the air The ever increasing number of stu- dents enrolled in Vocal Music indicates that the people of Derry Township have recog- nized the fun and value of that depart- ment. The operetta Pickles was a great success. Its setting was in old Vienna and no one will ever forget Ron Everett's de- lightful rendition of the title song. At Christmas time the chorus presented an in- spiring cantata which featured picture- like scenes of the Nativity. One ot the highlights of the spring social swing was the concert. The chorus, under the direc- tion of Mrs. Ruby Markle, sang many lovely and lively selections. The Derry Township High School sent ten representatives to County Chorus. Ronald Everett repre- sented us at District Chorus and Barbara Switzer was chosen to attend State Chorus. . . what do you say, Mr. G.? 65 MUS C As in all good things - harmony is the Kneeling-J.

Its football shows varied from a serious chapel to a dragnet scene, and its concert music ranged from serious classics to a fast piece of dixieland jazz. There were many factors involved in the success of the band, but the most credit should be given to the wonderful director, Mr. Calvo, who works constantly in order to better the appearance as well as the music of the band. While performing at football games, the snappiness of the band was greatly aided by our high stepping, fancy twirling maiorettes and sweater girls. Everyone appreciates the many hours of practice spent by these girls in the perfecting of their many routines. They are known for their performances of acrobatic ability. The help of the elementary school music instructor, Mr. Geracimos, was in- valuable. Also sharing the limelight were our ever popular, petite, and energetic cheer- leaders, who always did their utmost in giving the team the encouragement needed to go on to victory. Next year, through the generosity of the school board, the band will be sport- ing new uniforms. Twenty new instru- ments have also been added recently. The orchestra proudly previewed their fashionable new outfits at the spring con- cert. The instrumental department at Derry Township High School has made great pro- gress in the past few years, and this fact has been recognized and acclaimed by all. CHEERLEADERS-J. Shultz, J. Saba, C.

And the students who face the foot- lights in make-up and costumes carry that magic convincingly to the members of every audience at Derry Township High School. Each year in the late fall there is a iunior class play and with the advent of spring comes the senior play production. A good choice for the first presentation, Boys About Babette , was a typical high school comedy with an average teenager, her parents, and her problems as its subject. In the annual Christmas Cantata, dra- matics, under the guidance of Miss Smith, was combined with music. As the choristers sang, the still scenes were presented on stage behind them to portray the words in pageantry. The stage was divided into parts, or areas, this year and only one area shown at a time. Also newly- introduced were special lighting eFFects which allowed the curtain to remain open at all times. This year's operetta was also noteworthy as a dramatic as well as musical show. While Mrs. Markle supervised the music and singing, Miss Smith coached the players on lines, gestures, movement, and characterization. Pickles was a good show for hilarious bits of business and laugh evoking asides to the audience. When this book was going to press, try-outs for the senior show had iust been completed, a cast se- lected by Miss Kasperik, and the long, hard work of rehearsals started. There is fun and fruitful learning in this play-acting, and we hope that speech and dra- matics will soon be a regular part of our school curriculum. . . rehearsal time ff!

All indications were that this group of boys was going to turn into one of the best ball clubs ever to play for Derry Twp. The next week the Eagles played the an- nual rivalry clash with Latrobe. This game wasn't quite as easy for them, but they still came through with a T4-7 victory. Then the team met with some misfortune. Starting quarterback George Shumaker was in- jured in practice. So, that week and for the rest of the season, George Steeves piloted the crew. And in those following games he proved to be a capable replacement for the quarterback slot. The boys romped over the St. Vincent Bearkittens to the tune of 32-6. The Eagles extended their winning streak by easily defeating the Bobcats of Blairsville by ci 27-0 score. Then came the time for the long trip to Van- dergrift. For the first time all season, the boys found things a bit more ditticult. The much su- perior Vandergrift team handed them a neat 28-6 defeat. This school, incidentally, is in the class AA section. Eager for revenge and anxious to avenge their loss of the previous week, the Eagles trav- eled to Mt. Pleasant hoping to upset that school. They did. Score, 2'l-O. UUR HERUS Fought hard and fairly and played fine ball The following week the school played host to the undefeated Hurst Hurricanes. Everything was in our favor for this game. Mr. Pilato had scouted Hurst three times prior to the contest, the Eagles were sporting new uniforms, spirit was at its highest peak, and we had the aid of Jim Ankney, a good defensive man, for the first time this season. The result: a thrilling 27-O upset. The winners: Derry Township's Golden Eagles. Next came St. Vincent for the second time. The situation was a little different this time though. The Bearkittens, on their home field, were fired-up for this game. The going was a little rough but our boys came through with a 27-13 win. Leechburg. Undefeated Leechburg. Unde- feated Leechburg with top W.P.l.A.L. man Dick Hunter. These were the items showing next in the cards. Last year Derry Township had eliminated Leechburq from the Class A running and this year they were out for revenge. Large- ly due to halfback Hunter's amazing running, they managed to hand the Eagles a 26-T3 loss. This was pretty hard for the players, the coaches, and even the fans to take because it knocked Derry Township out of the Class A running. But even so, with defeat hard on its heels, the team proved its metal by beating Wilmer- ding 7-O the following game: a close, hard- foughtone. The Eagles finished the season sporting a record of eight victories and two defeats.

Lack of experience in varsity play seemed to be the biggest obstacle Coaches Festa and Cignetto encountered in working with this year's team. In the opening game the Eagles suffered defeat at the hands of Ligonier who, with their deadly shooting and fast breaking, went non-stcp to victory. The next three games with Kiski, Derry Boro, and St. Vincent Prep found the Derry Twp. boys on top. Our second meeting with Derry Boro however put a stop to the succession of wins. Ligonier playing on their own flocr also again proved superior. The following games drove the Eagles deeper into the cellarg for Blairsville and Uniontown, each for the first time, topped us and only North Huntington fell prey to our victory-hungry boys. if we play it this way 76 R lt appeared that the rival teams' opposing de- fense was and would be too tough to break through. After changing his offensive attack, Mr. Festa thought he had hit the iackpot with his sixsfoot four-inch center Don Falenski and out front men such as Shumaker, Krinock, and Skol- oda to feed him high passes. On rebounds Ank- ney did fine board work. For six games the Eagles as a team and as in- dividuals did not let down at all, but seemed rather to be playing out their class. Out of these games came victory over Blairsville and Kiski and defeat at the hands of Connellsville, Latrobe, Jeannette and Greensburg, these lost all belonging to Section 2A. ln the final series of seven games, the team boasted high scores over St. Vincent and North Huntington and came out the loser in meetings with the Big Five of 2A. Immediately the practicing began for the Westmoreland County Basketball Tournament at St. Vincent College gymnasium. Here they were eliminated in the first round of play by Hurst. Thus ended the season of '53-'54 at D.T.H.S. Our team did not win often, our Eagles' wings were clipped and clipped again, but our boys played hard and gamely and of that we are proud. F.Sqob D.

For track season has begun, and he and Mr. Baran are there to put the boys in the sweat clothes with towels around their necks through their paces. In all phases of this sport, speed, endur- ance, distance, and practice are important ele- ments. lndividual work is what is basically im- portant in any track team. Quality, not quan- tity, is the keyword. Breaking county records and placing high at the state meet, Ed Gelsdorf and Carl Thomas brought many honors to our school last year. Award winners at Derry Township are frequent, we're proud to say. Sealed: W. Cech, W, Wilson, G, Brinker, W. Wiatrak, T. Roman, K. Starry, R. Lepley. Standing: C. Thomas, D.

She keeps the mem- bers quite busy by taking them bowling and ar- ranging various swimming dates at the Y . Besides keeping the girls athletically conscious, the club provides relaxation, exercise, and a welcome change from the exhausting routine of school life. In the course ot the year the girls fake part in a variety of activities such as softball, square dancing, volleyball, tumbling, calisthenics, and the basketball tournament which produces keen rivalry between the sophomores, juniors, and seniors. The girls chose Nancy Gibbons as their presi- dentp Ellen Kozemchak to assist her as vice-presi- dent, and Frances Dellavechio as secretary- treasurer. ,f' I 2 'I ' Via Q Q , .V .am , ' . , ith ' ' f, 'M .
