Time Stagers On utlllgtdw OAS gm ' sto 4- ,ZX- February Class History L' In February of 1939 Dormont High School was bestowed with the honor of enrolling the most industrious group of hard-working, popular, and, may I add, modest students ever to enter its portals. Although the class was a small one, each and every member of it immediately distin- guished himself in some field of learning. During the freshman year one of our lusty throng ably represented his class in the city yo-yo competitions. This immediately stamped us as leaders in athletic endeavors. In the sophomore year our guys and gals were firmly established in most of the activities the school had to offer. However, a group of our young gentlemen, ever seek- ing mental and physical advancement, organ- ized among themselves a club known as The Sons of Rest. This organization was devoted to the leisurely pursuance of endeavors not ordinarily accompanied by physical exertion, such as: sleeping, dozing, mild conversational ,Q A 2 banter, and other similar activities. Needless to say, our worthy athletes excelled in these various sports. As juniors, the class set fine examples for the younger, less polished underclassmen to follow. None of our members had poor records exceeding a limit of three years. This is a testimonial to the civic virtues and moral character of our stalwart class. The senior class was a fitting climax for this outstanding group of mental giants. CApplause from seniorsj They continued in the same sterling vein of superiority and after several days of raucous celebration Ca particu- larly hectic Class Dayb the senior class gradu- ated practically en masse the night of Janu- ary 25, 1943. Amid sighs of relief, the muffled weeping of the faculty could be heard, as their emotions got the better of them, and they demonstrated their feelings at seeing such an unusual class being thrust out into the cruel, hard world. Februar Class Will Y A Wi- 552237 3, Herewith, thereby, and so on, the following data are the usual list of inherit- ances forced upon the various hapless heirs.

And along with Nellie came her spoiled artist son, George, with his long-suffering wife, Iris. There was Sally, Nellie's daughter, David, her suitor, and Andrew, man-about-town and globe trotter. Yes, and even Grand- mother Randall breezed in from Paris during the evening. Confusion mount- ed with Mr. Marshall's announcement JUNE SENI The june Senior Prom was held on the evening of May the twenty-eighth. The Seniors broke 'traditions by giving their own Prom. This was -due to the fact that mid-year graduations have been dis- continued and the Juniors had failed to elect their officers in time to make ar- rangements. Bob Swoger, chairman in charge of supplying the orchestra, man- aged to get Jimmie McKeane and his solid-sending music-makers. Due to the gasoline rationing most of the couples of a shortage in David's department just after David had presented Sally with a diamond he could never afford before. To make matters worse, Flossie Munson, artistis model and femme fatale, starts divorce proceedings with her social,' call on George. All in all, the Class Play was a howl- ing success from the minute the curtains parted to the minute they closed on the last act. The dual cast proved a credit to Miss Miller's direction. No, the Seniors will not soon forget Nellie Was a Lady. OR PROM arrived on foot, but survived the rigors with suflicient reserve to appreciate the efforts of the decorating committee. The gymnasium was very effectively decked out with streamers, palms, etc., to carry through the spring theme, along which lines it was originally planned. The Prom lasted until midnight and then all the dutiful Seniors went straight home and to bed so that they might arise bright and early the next day to toil in their Victory gardens.

Act I-Scene 1: The scene opens on the campus of Dormont High School, overlooking picturesque Banks- ville Valley. It is autumn. Up the street robins are singing. Little boys, glad that their feathered companions have not yet flown south, are throwing stones at them. Life is serene and happy. Casualties due to stu- dents' practical humor have been reduced to an amazing degree--or at least they have been reduced. Into this picture of High School life stumbles a small, inconspicuous character, Every once in a while he brushes the hair out of his eyes and looks around. He is Harry Freshman. He is our hero. The curtain rises as a burly character approaches Harry. . . CHarry decides to take the bull by the horns and open a conversation with the fellow.J Harry: Pardon me, good thir, but perchanth you can tell me where I can purchath thome elevator ticketh? Larry Character: Oh ho! A freshman, eh! Harry: Yethir. Larry Character: 1Turning his back and writ- ing on a piece of paperl Why it just so happens that I have one more elevator ticket left myself. fHe extends piece of paper.7 The price has gone up and they're get- ting scarce, but you can have it for half a buck. Harry: Oh thank you, thir. Act II-Scene 1: The setting is similar to scene 1. Harry Freshman is now Harry Sophomore. Hawk- like, he is wandering about searching for prey. He spots a freshman. It is Ignatius Sucker. He is not brilliant. Harry: Hey, you! Ignatius: Who, me? Harry: Yes, you. Let's have two-bits. I'm selling you a library pass. Ignatiuh: Oh, that's just dandy. I've always wanted to buy one. Here's the money. Now please stop twisting my arm. Act III-Scene 1: Harry junior is leaning against the tall stone steps in front of stately old Dormont High. He has just flunked an exam. As he ponders an excuse for his parents, he absently tears the pages from his Math book and throws them at passing children. Tiring of this sport, he casts his bilious glance over the milling students. It rests momentarily on a certain glamour girl then passes on-to an- other glamour girl. Signs of life stir within Harry. He is interested. A certain sparkle- perhaps it's more of a gleam-comes to his eyes. He puckers up his lips and emits a long, low, soulful whistle. It has no effect: the girl tosses her head and walks on. Harry takes it like a man. He speaks .... Harry: fto himself! That whistle is not what it should be. I've been neglecting myself lately: I'll have to practice moref' He walks away whistling as the scene changes. Act IV-Scene 1: Harry Senior, a suave, polished individual is standing on the High School steps, swing- ing his jangle chain. 1-le is fairly terrific and is rather sharply attired. He is approached by another suave, polished senior, who is likewise reetly garbed. As always, when great intellects meet, there is a high-minded, scientific discussion .... Harry: Well, what d'you say, smooth one. Make with the shakef' C They shake hands! Smooth One: Solid, old man. What's the count? Harry: Dig this drape, gay boy, it's right off that upper shelf. Smooth One: Oh, man. you're terrific. I can see you're plugged in, really hitting on all four. Harry: You're right-I am terrific. Whatis the big story for tonight? Whither shall we jive? Smooth One: Well, gate, I'm in the mood for some of that eight-to-the-bar stuff. W'hy don't you bounce on over to my hovel, old man, and we'll send ourselves. I've got some new platters that really have that rad-a-ma-que. Harry: You're on, my fren'-'til tonight at ten. And so they part. From our humble stage, Harry and his friends must now venture forth to the stage of life, where the job is harder but success is sweeter. Goodbye, Harry, and the best of luck. fCurtain-tumultuous applauseb V J JU E CLASS WILL .

CHAMPIONS The 1942 football season will go down in Dor- mont history as one of the most successful seen by the school. In Class A games the Bulldogs bowed to no one and were tied only by Mt. Pleas- ant Hurst with whom the title was shared. 'The lone defeat of the year was suffered at the hands of Mt. Lebanon, Dormont's traditional rival. To the coaching staff and particularly Lieut. Smith must go the recognition and appreciation due them for the splendid job they performed. From last yearls team, credited with only one vic- tory, the coaches wielded the present champion- ship squad. The grid system utilized the T formation which was based on speed, deception, and close- knit team play. This method was peculiarly adaptable to the type of players which comprised the bulk of this year's squad. Along with the winning of the trophy, Dor- mont was forced to accept a loss when Coach Smith climaxed his successful career here by vol- unteering his services to one of the greatest of American teams-the United States Navy. 1945 SQUAD Row 1, left to right-Dennison, Becker, Orbin, Genis, Schmalzreid, Woodsum, Brubaker, Snyder, Thomas, Swcger, Flecker.

Milton Greene George Bonnar MOUNT LEBANON-This was the inaugural football game of the 1942 season and the only one that resulted in disaster for the Bulldogs. Mt. Lebanon played host to Dor- mont's gridders, and was a very fortunate host indeed. Although the 7-6 outcome was a scorebook victory for the Mounties it presented a tremendous moral asset to the Maroon and Gray. Until the second half Mt. Lebanon barely managed to cross their own scrim- mage line and the first down tally favored the borough lads heavily, ll-3. The deadlock was broken in the middle of the third quarter when the Blue Devils unleashed a drive that carried to the Dormont five yard marker. In four tries the ball was finally pushed over on a naked reverse by Laboon. Lang converted to give his team the extra point that finally decided the outcome. Dormont retaliated with a quick drive to the five yard line from which position Becker scurried around the end to score. The try for point-after-touchdown was unsuccessful, one of the few times True-Toe Little missed the uprights. This contest gave the Bulldogs the added poise and confidence they needed to com- plete the season undefeated. 5' 4 if A' Q , I i :-: f Lil' U It 1, dr?

The second team started 1 the game and for the first quarter played on even terms with the Snowdenites. Then the A squad began the second quarter and no sooner did the whistle blow than the score was 7-0, against the locals. The Bulldogs then received and unleashed a burst of speed and power which proved too much for the opposition and in short order carried the Maroon to the five stripe from where Red Thomas bulled over. But Snowden came back with such a diversified attack that the locals were still looking for the ball when the scoreboard read: Snowden- 13, Dormont-7 at the half. But during the half each Smith lad took a shot of Doc Robeson's special Utiger juice and as a result they entered the second half geared with determination. Two tallies came in short order and the last quarter found the 'Dogs out in front. Again in the fourth stanza a pair of sixes and two Herman Little singles were negotiated. During the latter half, Snowden's attack was com- pletely squelched and they remained in their own territory throughout. The final 34. as stacked against Snowden's 13, was the highest total a Dormont team had accumulated since 1956. CRAFTON--Under the sunny skies of Crafton-on-Avon, the sturdy Dormont yeomen encountered their first Class A opponent. Both teams were well primed for the contest and a hot game was expected by weather- man Brotzman, who predicted a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit. With blood in their eyes and dandruff on their shoulders the two aggregations took the fiel . They didn't take it very far, however, as the school authorities made them bring it back. Somewhat crestfallen, but none the worse for wear, the warriors squared off. Dormont, being modeled along political lines, wasn't quite square and had to rearrange their formation. This was accompanied by loud applause from the spectators who thought the game was being called off. However, armed guards forced their back into their Seats and the game got underway. Crafton looked fairly terrific up until the kick-off, but when the Bulldogs received said kick-off and marched up the field to score in six plays, people began to suspect that the Craftonites were in for a tough time. Time-out was called while the Crafton players located bookies and bet heavily against themselves. This practice was frowned up- on by the referee, who said they should have demanded odds. The battle was soon resumed but the Maroon and Gray tide could not be stemmed. At the half the score was 22-0 in favor of the local vitamin lads. The beginning of the third quarter once again saw the regulars in action, but Coach Smith, of My-players- Lux-their-undies fame, fearing that their avid perspiration would soil the delicate fabric of the uniforms, yanked the first-squaders and sent the second team in. The reinforcements did a worthv iob and allowed few gains from the Blue and Gold. However, the Crafton gridders maneuvered themselves into scoring posi- tion and the varsity once again saw action. Although the Smith-men failed to prevent the threatened score, they crossed into pay-dirt once more to end the game in a 28-7 victory. XVAYNESBURG--A highly rated Waynesburg aggregation took the field in expectation of a trounce over the underrated Dormont Dashhounds, but were rather disappointed in that the 'Hounds ran roughshod over them. The Waynesburg kickoff soared over the bright crimson helmet of Mope Genis and into the ready arms of Hairy Harry Brubaker who twisted his hips skillfully and fell gracefully to the turf. The Maroon then began their inevitable goalward sweep at midfield and eight plays later accounted for seven points. Upon receiving, the Red and Black failed t0 make a first down and were forced to punt. The locals again being in possession of the leather started another rampage. After a series of bucks, slices, and Bru-to-Snitz aerials, Becker swept right end for another touchdown. Upon Litt1e's conversion, the 'Hounds kicked and proceeded to effect loss after loss for the Rurals. At this point, Diebolt, Waynesburg's bone crush- ing fullback who had been characterized as the Blaster in various Waynesburg local publications, limped off the field as a result of tackling Iron John Flecker. In the second period, Snyder snagged a Brubaker aerial ad raced thirty yards to score. The halftime total stood at 21-0. The third quarter saw the Maroon tally twice again and from then on the second and third teams saw action. In the last period, each team managed a touchdown, Reed being the local scorer. The final slate showed a 40-7 figure which was a new all-time total in addition to being a pleasant surprise for all Dormont fans. MCKEES ROCKS-The favored Rox Rams came to the local field with a winning streak of six games, having averaged over twenty points per game in addition to having held each of their opponents scoreless. The Valley stalwarts outweighed the Bulldogs by about twenty-five pounds per man and were given three to one odds to win, but proved to be no match for the harder-charging, speedier Maroon eleven. Rox kicked off, and barely managed to prevent a score in the initial period. The second quarter saw more decisive action, however, as the 'Dogs pounded the Rox two stripe from where Becker crossed their goal for the score. This marked the first time the Rox goal line had been crossed all season. Shortly after the second half began, Thomas speared a pass and galloped 20 yards through the Ram secondary for the second tally. The third touchdown came five minutes later when Dennison ripped through tackle for seventeen yards and six points. In the last quarter the Rams recovered a fumble deep in 'Dog territory and eventually netted six points. Orbin and Genis stood out in the local line and were responsible for many successful plays. The field was one bog of mud during the game and held the Smithmen at a X disadvantage throughout, but the more aggressive 'Dogs came through with a decisive 19-6 win, in spite of the odds. CARNEGIE-The Carnegie Field on the day of the Dormont-Carnegie encounter was the scene of probably the worst and faultiest fooball displayed by the Bulldogs during the entire year. The 'Dogs played sloppy ball from the inaugural whistle to the final gun iwith several exceptions, of course? and realized little compensation in the victory. The first few minutes of the battle found the Carnegie boys deep in Dormont territory as a result of several fumbles and expensive penal- li A. H 5 ties. Both goals remained uncrossed during the first period and most of the second. Toward the latter part of the half the Maroon did manage to score once but only after hard earned gains. In the third quarter it seemed that the TU had begun to roll once more. After a single touchdown was scored, the locals bogged again. In the last period the team gave some semblance again of being its old self but the gun sounded in time to save Carnegie from the deadly blitz. Dur- ing the game the locals lost more than 100 yards on penalties alone. An unusual number of injuries were also sustained in the fray, most notable of which was jack Genis's, which kept him on the sidelines for the remainder of the regular season. Although the score and statistics were extremely one-sided, the game was a moral victory for Carnegie. 1 i BELLEVUE-The Bulldogs continued their drive to the championship by defeating Bellevue 24-0 on a muddy field at Avalon. Bellevue's only threat came in the first period when they penetrated to the Maroon twen- ty-five. However, a Bulldog punt stemmed the danger and from that point on the game was all Dormont. Dan Becker formally opened the scoring by dashing around left end for a fourteen-yard touchdown romp. The next tally came in the second stanza when Red Thomas took advantage of some beautiful block- ing by Woodsum and Flecker and ran the total up another notch. After this touchdown Bellevue elected to kick to Dormont. The kick-off was received by Becker who raced to the Red and Black's twenty-yard line. On the next play Brubaker flipped a pass to Thomas who zipped into the end-zone for his second sixer. The first eleven was then replaced and did not reappear in the fracas. Led by Russell Miller, the second team took the field and gave a splendid account of themselves. Elmer Kozorra completed the scor- ing when he galloped around right end and fought his way past the double stripes. BRENTYYOOD-On a clear, cold day the Brentwood gridders came to Dormont to complete the regular season schedule. To be assured of a play-off game, the Bulldogs needed a win in this last contest and set out with determination to get it. With machine-like precision the Maroon warriors started their drive. The first half saw six touchdowns roll over the startled Spartans' goal line although the Dormonters slowed down to a canter in the second period. Coach Smith once again had a chance to clear the bench and much promising material for future squads was in evidence. A terrific headwind during the whole game hampered both sides and made punting and passing dangerous. A feature of this tussle was an unfortunate Brent- wood punt which traveled a distance of minus four yards. The final tally of 45-0 gave Dormont the impetus which sent them to the Class A play-off. MT. PLEASANT HURST-Jeannette, Pennsylvania, was the scene of the Class A Championship game be- tween Mt. Pleasant and Dormont. This match pitted the powerhouse type team composed chiefly of burly behemoths specializing in the move 'em or niangle 'em style of play against the shifty, deceptive team with smaller, but faster and more aggressive players emphasizing the over, around, and under 'em brand of football. Hurst entered the battle slight favorites with a very impressive string of victories behind them. They also boasted an unusually powerful fullback in Clarence Gorinski, who could punt and pass in addition to bucking the line. Captains Swoger and Thomas Won the coin flip and elected to receive. Thomas took the kickoff and was stopped on his fifteen. Three plays netted nothing and Dennison booted. Hurst took over in midfield and in four plays reached the Bulldog five. Gorinski hit a stone wall three times but on the fourth down drove across the last stripe. After having converted, Hurst again kicked and the 'Dogs took possession on their twenty line. Snyder snared a beautiful pass from Brubaker and galloped to the Hurst twenty. The locals lost possession here but regained it again in the second quarter and commenced a goal line march featuring runs by Snyder and Thomas. Becker swept the right flank to tally, and Little split the uprights. Once the Maroon attack get under way it couldn't be stemmed and again in the period Den- nison rounded the other end for twelve yards and a tally. Again Joe Little's boot was good. The third quarter saw the 'Hounds monopolizing the play and reach the Scarlet sixteen stripe, where they lost the ball on downs. After a scoreless third, Hurst came back in the final quarter to tie the score for the second and last time. The Smith lads threatened again in the waning minutes but Hurst intercepted a pass and elected to freeze the ball for the duration. Swoger and Little led the Bulldog line in stopping most of Hurstis line bucks. Although the first downs favored the home school, 15-7, the Dormont players rated Hurst the best team met all season. The total count was 14-14. DORMONT 24 BELLEVUE 0 JOHN FLECKER GRANDSTANDING. I AM NOT GRANDSTANDING! H -john Fleclzer JOHN IS NOT GRANDSTANDING! Mr. Flecker DORMONT ,,. ., 14 MT.

The meal was featured by Elmer Kazorra's consumption of six servings of dessert and by a loud belch omit- ted by Jack Leech upon completion of the very delicious dinner. The post-meal pro- gram commenced with several droll jokes told by Master-of-Ceremonies Glass and con- tinued with such notable speakers as Dr. Stewart, Mr. Loeffler, Mr. Church, Coach Smith, and Mr. Eddie Beachler. The latter spoke in place of Chet Smith, sports editor of The Pittsburgh Press, who was originally scheduled to speak but was unable to keep the date. Also scheduled to speak were jock Sutherland, Tom Harmon, Babe Ruth, and Frank Buck, but weather conditions prevented their appearance. The members of the staff were given presentations by the team. Zut Orbin, Red Thomas, Bob Swoger, and Moldy Snyder were the silver-tongued presentationists. The banquet was a success in every sense of the word and the thought of it will be cherished in the minds of the players for years to come. A second banquet was held some months later in honor of Lt. S. G. Smith, USN, and, like its predecessor, was a striking success. The feast was opened with-George Bonnar's announcement that Dr. Stewart will now pro- nounce the vocation. Bob Prince and Aldo Buff Donnelli were the principal speak- ers. GEORGE ORBIN-The other half of an ex- tremely rugged tackle combination. Zut was a superb blocker and cleared the way for the backfield boys with never-failing regularity and precision. His sparkling play was characterized by aggressiveness and untiring effort. HAROLD XVOODSUM-Held down the right tackle berth all year by virtue of his rugged per- formance on the gridiron. A tall, rangy player, Woody fit perfectly into the TU formation where his speed and strength were utilized to the nth degree. He could throw a bruising block and come back to the huddle with an amazingly innocent smile. JOE LITTLE-Along with Jack Genis, Joe helped give Dormont one of its greatest guard combina- tions. Known to the players as True-toe Joe kicked all the extra points 419 in alll that helped keep D.H.S. in the running. He was a superb worker and always gave that extra effort which determines the difference between success and mediocrity. RUSS MILLER-Russ was Captain Swoger's un- derstudy, but nevertheless saw more than enough action to receive a letter. Although Russ' weight fell below that of the team average, his tackling and blocking would have compared with that of most players. A good snapper-back, his specialty was backing up the line where he sent innumer- able opposing backs reeling. DICK RED THOMAS-Dick was our red- headed cannonball who exploded through the de- fense continually for huge gains. On the defense he took particular delight in dealing out sore stomachs to the opposing backs with his steam- roller tackles. Red also caught more of our opponents passes than they did. JACK SNYDER-There have been very few ends in the school's history as versatile as Snitz. He played end for the most part but occasionally quarterbacked the squad. At end he teamed with Orbin to open huge gaps in the opposing lines. His specialty was pass-snaggingg he could catch any ball within ten feet of himself. His end- around was always a threat, too, as he had the speed and deception necessary for effective run- ning. BOB BRUBAKER- Harry was officially the brains of the outfit and he played the part very well. He seemed to have the uncanny ability of calling exactly the right play at the right time. He was one of the outstanding passers of the leagueg his rifle arm was responsible for not a few scores. Defensively, he was a sure tackler and an able-punt-receiver, having an excellent punt return average. BOB SWOGER-Co-Captain Swoger was one of the mainstays of the eleven. He was a crack snapper-back, a terrific hole-opener, and defens- ive signal caller, but his forte was backing up the line. When he made a tackle, it was not only seen, but heard as well. He has been first string center for the past three years and has yet to turn in a poor performance. JOHN FLECKER- Iron John would be an A-l end on any man's team. He proved his worth by turning in a long string of flawless performances. Very few leather-luggers got around John's end and those who did never man- aged it twice. GEORGE DENNISON- Pick did the punting for the T and man- aged to keep the opponents deep in their own territory with his con- sistency. Offensively, he had all the qualities of the top-notch halfback -power, speed, elusiveness. He was especially effective in quick-opening bucks, always good for several yards on power alone. Unexcelled defen- sively, he was one of the main rea- sons why the T clicked. DAN BECKER-The boy who beat the safety man to the sidelines on his end runs. On the defense he was the fifth man in the opponents' back- field and often played tackle to utilize his terrific speed and weight. A work horse in practice, the results of his added effort showed up read- ily in his consistent outstanding per- formance on the field. CHARLES SCHMALZREID- Chis- sel was probably the largest player on the squad and used his size to advantage. At tackle, he was an ex- cellent blocker and defensively stopped many plays before they reached the line of scrimmage. JIM AMBILL-Powerful, stocky, Big Buck liked to open big, gap- ing holes in the opposing forward walls. Defensively, he was consist- ently spoiling plays and throwing backs for huge losses His all around ruggedness made him one of the big guns of the line. HENRY COACH CAMPBELL-A back injury prevented Henry from playing ball this yearg however, his contribution to the success of the team was just as real as that of any player. He is one of those rare in- individuals who is willing to give unselfishly of his time and effort to improve the lot of his friends. Long after the Class A Championship is forgotten, Henry Campbell will be fondly remembered by those who as- sociated with him. BOB DICK-Bob alternated guard and tackle positions, but saw most of his action at guard. Rufe was the rock-em-and-sock-em type of lineman who was at his best against the toughest of opponents. Rufe's combination of speed and aggressive- ness made him responsible for stop- ping more than a few plays. BOB DANGOTT--One of the speed merchants of the backfield, Dingy could do anything expected of a halfback. In addition to being a top flight sprinter, he had power to burn, and could whip a bullet pass with the best of them. BASKETBALL ' E 3 1 ' if F . Wil-ii? XY: 1942-1945 SQUAD The 1942-45 basketball season was a fifty- fifty affair. The basketball team all but broke even in 21 engagements. The Maroon and Gray passers were successful in 10 en- counters and unsuccessful in 11 engagements for a .476 average. The hoopsters opened the campaign on the right foot with two consecutive victories. The victims were ALLEGHENY VOCATIONAL by 52 to 15 and BELLEVUE by 50 to 25. Two consecutive proved to be the longest winning streak the Borough lads could muster all season. The LANGLEY fracas followed and the Maroon and Gray was brushed aside by the Sheridan lads 51-29 in an overtime ball game. The excitement of this battle was so intense that a mild riot occurred, but it was quelled before any damage was done. The next scheduled contest took place in West Vir- ginia. The locals opened relations with CHES- TER HIGH SCHOOL. The boroughites fought hard, but victory evaded them in the final seconds. The Maroon and Gray finished on the short end of a 52-29 score. Following this the Bulldogs played on the home hard- wood with our neighborhood rival, SOUTH HILLS. The big boys had quite a ball club this year, but the Dormonters were too much for them and when the final whistle sounded the scoreboard read-Home 55, Visitors 17. A highly touted DUQUESNE team came to the Dormont floor on December 22. The Lit- tle Dukes did remarkably well this past season and made a very good showing in the championship playoffs at the Pitt Stadium Pavilion. The records prior to this contest showed that Dormont had never defeated a Duquesne team. The game was of the story book variety with Bulldogs triumphant in a heartbreaking finish. Final score 51-30. This conquest was Dormont's greatest achievement of the basketball season. ln an attempt to ex- tend their winning streak to 5 games the Ma- roon and Gray lost to SCHENLEY 49 to 41. The Dormont lads really did a noble job in holding the Schenley aggregation to such a close score. The Schenley encounter terminat- ed the pre-league tuneup games. The first league fracas found Dormont visit- ing BRENTWOOD the team which eventu- ally copped the section 8 title. The Bulldogs clicked in this tussel and as a result adminis- tered Brentwood one of its two seasonal de- feats. The score, 44-32. This triumph was an- other victory of which we can be proud. The second sectional battle took place with CAR- NEGIE at the Clark High School gym. This was a very tight ball game, but the locals eked out a win in the closing seconds 26-22. This victory made the borough fans sit up and take notice. The team followers had hopes that Dormont might be able to capture a bas- ketball crown to go with their football trophy. The hopes of a championship began fading when the locals lost a heartbreaker to CRAF- TON on the Crafton bandbox floor. The con- test was a rough affair due to the small play- ing surface. The whistle terminating the game found the borough lads on the short end of a 37-35 count. The Bulldogs back on the home court after three away tussels dis- played a marvelous passing attack in handing STOWE a setback-35-23. The Stowe encoun- ter was the first league game on the Dormont hardwood. The Maroon and Gray swishers overwhelmed their taller opponents by fast- breaking and superior passing. The following engagement was with our greatest rival, MT. LEBANON, on the Blue Devil floor. Prior to this game the Lebanonites were undefeated in 12 contests. The locals proved to be no stumbling block for the Mounties as they made it 13 straight by winning 37-23. The Bulldog five fought hard, but height told the tale in this battle. After the Mt. Lebanon dis- aster the Borough boys came back to the local court. The Maroon and Gray, still mad from the preceding game, took it out on the hap- less CORAOPOLIS quint. The Bulldogs just couldnit miss the hoop in this fracas and when the final buzzer sounded the count was 43-29 in favor of Dormont. The MCKEES ROCKS team entertained the Dormonters next. The tussle was nip and tuck all the way. It so hap- pened that it was nip when the final gun sounded and Rocks was triumphant 30 to 28. This ball game was the last of the first half. The second-half inaugural contest found the Smithmen entertaining the BRENT- WOOD five. This engagement was no replica of the first one as you can plainly see by the final score 34-21 in favor of the Blue and Gold. The CARNEGIE quint visited the Bull- dogs on February 5th, only to be drubbed 44-20 by the locals. This affair was another in which the Borough swishers couldn't miss. At this stage in the season the Maroon and Gray team embedded themselves in a losing rut. They lost to CRAFTON 34-21 on the home court, STOWE 44-35 on the Stowe hardwood, MT. LEBANON 34 to 21 in the Dormont gym, and CORAOPOLIS 34 to 25 in the Cory bandbox. The lack of height on the Bulldog team was the main cause of de- feat in the above mentioned games. The Dor- mont aggregation pulled themselves together and closed the season in a blaze of glory with an unquestionable victory over Mc- KEES ROCKS on the local floor. The final count was Dormont 51 McKeKes Rocks 29. The following players composed the A' squad and saw most of the action through- out the schedule: jack Snyder, Bob Swoger, Bill Hall, Bob Brubaker, jack Adamson, Bucky Ambill, Whitey Waugaman, and Tom Wylie. Especially outstanding was Captain jack Snyder, who compiled the remarkable season total of 244 points and ranks as one of the really great basketeers in Dormontis Hall of Fame. v Season's Record Dormont Opponent 52 .....

The Grunt and Groan boys have squirmed their way through another 'frasslingu season. With relief in their hearts and mat-burns on their shoulders, they, knowing that a better than average record is behind them, wend their happy ways through the halls. The team had an unusually tough schedule this year but still managed to come out in one piece. This was doubtlessly due to the fact that there were several stand-out wrestlers on the squad. At the top of the list is Hammerin' Henry fformerly Horizontal Henry J Campbell, That Red-headed Demon did very well for himself, veddy well in- deed. In a weight class where champions abound, Henry suffered only one setback. It was an ex- tremely close tussle and the margin was slight. All of his other opponents fell victim to his onslaughts and especially to his vicious figure four. An- other grappler of unusual ability was Tuffy 9 Season Dormont ll , , . . ,Warrington Ave. Rec. 9 Dormont 9 , , ,. Carnegie 8 Dormont 7 Shadyside Academy 7 Dormont 8 Carnegie 5 Thomson. With still another year of competition ahead of him, Tuffy completed his junior year on the mats with wins in every case but two. Our list of stlwarts grows longer as we add the important names of Shorty Kileen and Harold Woody Woodsum. Both of these rugged characters turned in worthy efforts and gratifying results in all of their encounters. No report on the wrestling ac- tivities would be complete without giving their well-deserved credit to the following: Charles Chris- tian, Bernard Powers, Joe Durish, Paul Fleckenstein, Daryl Homer, Anthony Ping, Bob Hall, Sam En- glehart, and Dick Coy. These mat-men were excel- lent examples of the conscientious, hard-working type of athlete which warms the hearts of coaches and spectators alike. By this token, Coach C. B. Dickerhoff should be an unusually warm-hearted individual, and we think he is. s Record Dormont 7 . , Millvale I0 Dormont 4, . . West View l2 Dormont 4 , ,Canonsburg 14 Dormont -i , Chartiers 9 TRACK D FI As a prelude to the regular outdoor season, the indoor track campaign opened with the Dash- hounds making their debut in a triangular engage- ment against Freedom and Mt. Lebanon at the l-'itt Track House. The eight man delegation represent- ing Dormont made an impressive showing by tak- ing an easy second place to Mt. Lebanon, which later proved to be the top team in the WPIAL. The next meet in which the Bulldogs participated was the annual WPIAL Championships, held also at the Track House. The sixteen team encounter ended with Dormont being barely nosed out for second place, a feat unprecedented by any other local squad. The 'hounds gathered sixteen big points with Becker taking the 50 yard dash and a second in the shotput, the mile relay team of Coy, Hartman, Brennfleck, and Becker placing second, and the team of Hartman, Brennfleck, Coy, and Mulvaney picking up a third in the two-mile relay. On the following Saturday the Tri-State Coaches Championships were held and the injury-hampered locals were held to seven points, five of which came from Becker's first in the 50 yard dash. The out- door season opened with a dual meet against Brent- wood in which meet the local Take-it-off boys literally ran wild in piling up 74 points to the 0pposition's scant 53. In the next meet, the annual XVPIAL Relay Carnival and one of the largest meets in the area, the Bulldogs probably hit their peak. In entering only three teams, the boys wound up with two firsts and one second. The 440 yard relay team of Thomas, Brennfleck, Vetter, and Becker took first honors as did the 880 team of Dangott, Brennfleck, Vetter, and Becker. The latter squad not only won the race, but in doing so, wiped out the old meet record of 154.6 set by Mt. Lebanon in '41 fTom Carr and company? and established a E L D new mark of l:53.9. The time of :-45.7 in the for- mer relay, as did the latter clocking, set a new school mark. The shot put team of Woodsum, Little, and Becker placed second. The following week the arch- rivals from Lebo visited the 'hounds for a dual affair and won with comparative ease. A week later Dormont invaded Langley and had little trou- ble in scoring 60Vg points to the city school's 45V3. The meet was featured by the record-equalling per- formance of Coy in the high hurdles, hitting the timbers in :l8. The next competition showed the locals appearing at the Washington Invitational Meet against fifteen other teams. Becker was hard- pressed to win the hundred, but in the 220 yard dash, won more decisively. His time of :22.7 in a trial heat of the 220 set a new school record. The following Friday night, at Clairton, the Independent Districts of Allegheny County Meet was held. In this meet the dash-hounds proved their potency as a track power by pulling down 5716 points for a smooth second place. Becker paced the sprint field with a double victory in the short events. The usual 880 relay team coasted to an easy first. Dennison tied for second in the pole vaultg Dangott and Thomas placed two, three in the javeling Coy, Little, Thomas, and Mulvaney finished third in the mile relay, Brennfleck picked up three points in the centuryg Woodsum placed fourth in the platter hurl, Vetter pulled down a fourth place on the 2203 Whipp took two fifths in the weights, and Thomas' broad jump split for fifth. The final dual encounter of the season saw the 'Dogs take down Bridgeville to the tune of 79 U6 to 47 5!6. In this battle, Dennison bettered 133 feet in the discus unofficially. In the WPIAL outdoor Championships, the locals showed splendidly. Brennfleck apfttibuted much to the morale of the team. ' TRACK 3rd fou'-Carey, Chavem.

Each year this event is looked forward to by the parents of the students and other outsiders who may be interested in the school activities. This year was no exception. The attendance for the two nights was approximately fifteen hundred, and from the compliments received by various members of the cast, opinions of the show were very good. The theme was centered around an old Negro slave who, while traveling homeward, grew tired and lay down to rest. He dreamt of his past life and his many friends. As usual the tap chorus created quite a hit with the audience. The chorus, consisting of some thirty-five girls, displayed some neat steps with a few specialties mixed in to add Variety. In their first number the girls ap- peared with black faces, representing old time pals of joe, the old slave. In their second appearance they wore rather scintillating costumes which definitely dazzled the audi- ence. An important part was played in the show this year by the physical education depart- ment. With Henry Campbell calling the stunts, the tumblers went through their routines which annually amaze the spectators. A brand new feature was a make-believe din- ing room brawl with Henry Campbells jui- jitsul' artists beating up a gang of toughs. A group of soldiers also crashed the gate. Under the direction of Gordon Elliot and Felix Rogers, they went through the manual of arms and exercise-drills. Other regular features included were the roller skating act and the jazz band, directed by Mr. Luckey. The show ended with the unfurling of Old Glory from the auditorium roof. 'lhe audi- ence stood to sing The Star-Spangled Banner and another successful Varieties entered the record books of Dormont High School. VARIETIES TAP CHORUS f ' xg BAND 3rd 1'0ll'-R. G.

BAND The band was under new leadership this year, due to jack Rumbarger's induction into the army. For the first time in two years the musicians of Dormont High practiced under a different baton. Mt. Luckey was the new bandmaster. I-le had won quite a reputation in Elizabeth. Many new personalities entered the band, replacing those who had left. But the old school spirit was there and that is the most important thing. Dave Simpson was named Student Director. John Mattern and Dan Fisher did more than their share of the work in the management of the band. They performed very well during the football season. It was too had that ice had to form on their instruments during the Brentwood game. The band worked hard and developed into a well coordinated unit. It is something of which we should be proud. BAND CONCERT-Proof of what our Band can do was witnessed at its successful concert Friday, March 26. The performance began as the lights went low, and the Band, assisted hy the drum majorettes, rendered Semper Fidelisf' As the program progressed, the audience listened intently to a Brass ensemble entitled, Parade of the Wfooden Soldiersf' Maestro Dave Carey started the famed Flight of the Bumble Bee on his likewise famous xylophone. He was rudely interrapted by pianist Dick Boogie Wfoogie' Dennison which finally resulted in some very solid jive. The revealing of the Phantom Trumpeter, Dave Carey, left everyone surprised. Dave Simpson, who by the way looks quite natural with a baton in his hand, conducted the Band and Glee Clubs playing and singing On The Mall. Dormont's trumpet soloist, Tim Healy, played a very smooth style in his arrangement of the solo, I Had the Craziest Dreamf, The Brazilian Bombshell, Nessie Vee jones, who has been in the entertainment profession most of her life, displayed some of her talent singing Villanille.', The Band created quite a novelty in the Little Brown Jug Goes to Town. Tony Fazio held the spotlight in that number trying to get his solo in. It was the music's fault, wasn't it, Tony? The Band and Glee Clubs ended the 5rd Annual Band Concert playing The Star-Spangled Banner. This year's Concert was a grand success. Written above were only a few of the selections. The par- ticipants worked hard in an effort to produce the show and certainly each one deserves particular credit for his part in this excellent entertainment. ORCHESTRA The D. H. S. orchestra played for most of the assemblies and also assisted in the Spring Concert. There were twenty-three members in the organization directed by Mrs. Bushv. Mr, Luckev and the student conductor, Dave Carey. For the Spring Concert the orchestra gave two beautiful renditions of Smoke Gets In Your Eyes and I Got Plenty O' Nothing. CLUB CURRENT EVENTS CLUB-The Current Events Club, which was under the sponsorship of Miss Suckling, has been organized for 10 years. The purpose of the club was to gather together students who were interested in current history so that they could discuss problems of interest among themselves. Besides being fun and informative it also was edu- cational in that it taught students to discuss cooly and rationally the problems confronting them as GIRLS' ATHLETIC CLUB--In the PZSI year the G.A.C. had an enrollment of 85 girls, all of which participated in a great many sports. During this time they also helped with the various activities of the school. The greater part of their time was spent playing basketball, volleyball, badminton, pingpong, GIRL RESERVES-The Club was composed of members of the sophomore, junior and senior classes and was associated with the Y.W.C.A. One of the many activities in vtghich the Girls Reserve Club has participated in the past year has been the securing and listing of the Alumni of D.H.S. who are in the service of our country. The names of these boys and their respective classes have been placed on an COLORBEARERS-The colorbearers were the girls who represented their respective class on the grid- iron during the flag raising ceremony before each football game. There were two girls from each class, each being chosen by her classmates. For the season of '42 the colorbearers were: Seniors: Betty Lee DORMONITOR-The D.H.S. paper, Dormonitor, started a successful year by presenting a skit in assembly entitled Behind the Scenes in the Dor- monitor Room. Not only did the staff succeed in getting the latest news and gossip to the students on the average of every other week but it also in- augurated a new idea, that of students sending the paper to their friends in the service. Everything went quite smoothly but for the exception of a few weeks when the editorial advisor, Miss Morrow, underwent an appendectomy, eventually the paper citizens. In September the officers elected were: President, Margaret Raeg Vice-president, William Rainesg Secretary, Doris Bosted. In February the officers elected were: President, William Rainesg Vice-president, Paul Francis, Secretary, Margaret Rae. Many interesting and informative topics were discussed during the year. Among these were: Should India Be Given Her Freedom Now? , The Peace After the XVar, Air Powers in the War. and bowling.

Along the line of war work, the club sponsored a drive for silk stockings. In the course of the year, the club also sponsored a dance, to which the stu- dent body was invited.

STUDENT COUNCIL--In the past year the Stu- dent Council, under the supervision of Miss Blank, has played a major role in the school's operation. The Council consists of representatives from each report room, each senior room being represented by two, the others by one. The representatives are elected by popular vote and in that way the Council serves to be a very influential organization. Fore- most among the Council's numerous assignments LIBRARY CLUB-The Library Club of D.H.S. was composed of a group of girls who volunteered their services during their study hall periods and after school two nights a week to the circulation of library books. The girls were taught to use the Library correctly and to help other students of the school in selecting interesting books. This year the Club helped in the Book Campaignn for the sol- GIRLS' GLEE CLUB--The Girls' Glee Club which was made up of over 45 girls met every Monday at 5:15 under the able direction of Miss Perkins. The pattern for the year followed the same as that of the Boys' Glee Club such as participating in Varie- ties, and Spring Concert, etc. The officers for the first semester were: President, Jean McCullough, Vice-president, Lyde Pritchard, Secretary and Treas- BOYS' GLEE CLUB-Of necessity, we must say of the Boys' Glee Club this year, that good things come in small packages. While large enough at the beginning of the year the ranks were thinned some- what by the advent of draftees, prospective colle e students, etc. The calibre of those remaining fairi- ful ones, while of considerable proportions in the beginning, improved to a great extent when their mettle was tested as time went on. This year, be- COOKING CLUB-The Cooking Club was com- prised of girls interested in the culinary art. The club met the first and third Thursday of each month in room 32 under the able leadership of Mrs. Wilson. This year's club has been under the guid- ance of the following officers: President, Jane Moder, Vice-president and Committee Chairman, Marjorie Abbott, and Secretary and Treasurer, Doris Todd. The recipes for the semester were chosen by the program chairman and her committee. Although the club has been handicapped this year due to L. were the direction of the magazine campai n, the scrap drives, and noon dancing. The president of the Council presided over the weekly assemblies. The officers during the first semester were: Presi- dent, Paul Francis, Vice-president, Alvin Wauga- man, Secretary, Bernice Schmalzreid. The second 'semester officers were: President, Jack Snyder, Vice- president, Donald Green, Secretary, Bernice Schmalzreid. diers. Once a month the club held a meeting where refreshments were served and games were played. And throughout the year there were several parties held, one being at the home of their sponsor, Mrs. Foresman, where the girls helped to make dough- nuts. The officers of the club for the year were: President, Alma Dobson, Vice-president, Lucille Bennett, Secretary, janet Molvie, urer, Marjorie Williams, Business Manager, Beth Walton, Librarians, Margaret Rae and Nancy Wible. And for the second semester: President, Shirley Dunlap, Vice-president, Ruth Landis, Secretary and Treasurer, Marjorie Williams, Business Manager, Doris Todd, Librarians, Margaret Rae and Nancy Wible. sides participating in the assemblies including the Christmas Programs, they contributed to the Bac- calaureate services, Spring Concert, Varieties, and the Easter Sunrise services. The boys who left dur- ing the course of the year were: Tom Sheridan, Wallace Hutchison, Bill Mason, Lauren Sannes, and Harry Flowers. The officers for the year were: George Yeckel, Tom Sheridan, Jack Mays, Tom Hanzas, George Bonnar, and Bill Poirer. rationing, the girls have been able to carry out most of the proposed projects. The club was especially valuable during war time because it taught the girls how to use the most available foods to the greatest advantage. The girls have not only learned how to prepare single dishes, but they have gained experi- ence in preparing entire dinners. The membership of the past year has included Marjorie Abbott, Vir- ginia Beckfield, Lucille Bennett, Alma Dobson, jean Kaltenborn, Vera Knopfel, Jane Moder, Doris Todd, and Valerie Viau.
