STEVVART Principal of Dormont High School MR. C. E. GLASS, Principal of Dor- mont High School, graduated from Ephrata High School, Lancaster County, in 1910. He grraduated from Bucknell University in 1916. He was the coach at Columbus Academy from 19115-1920. then went back to Bucknell from 1,920- 1923 as coach. His position at Dormont from 1923-1927 was coach. In 1927 he became principal of Dormont High School. He is working' continually to get the students to appreciate more the vast opportunities that the school is presenting them. He is trying to get us to realize that every day we are working' to become better persons than we were the day before. He is trying' to prepare his students to be able to accept the responsibilities they will find when they graduate from high school into the world. Superintendent of Dormont Public Schools DR. D. H. STEWART is a graduate oi' Penn State. He was awarded his Master of Arts degree by Columbia University, and from the same school he received a Certificate of Superintend- ent of Schools. By the University of Pittsburgh, he was awarded his Doctor oi' Philosophy degree. From January to June of 1919 he attended the Uni- versity of VVales. In 1936 he came here as Superintendent of Dormont Schools. His idea for all of us is that we should aim for ttquality and not quantity. lt is much mo1'e essential that we do our assigned work and do it well, rather than do twice as much and do it in a poor fashion. For it is very important that we learn to do our job, do it when it is to be done, but most of all, we must learn to do it well. MR. C. E. GLASS i' if 'A' TORCH 1945 Page 7 Assistant Principal of Dormont High MISS IRENE R. BLANK, our Assist- ant Principal, graduated from Greens- burg High School. She is also a gradu- ate of Goucher College. She received her Master of .Arts degree from the University of Pittsburgh. Before corn- ing to Dormont High School she taught in Latrobe High School where she was also their Assistant Principal. Miss Blank has been in Dormont High since 1922. Her outside interests are in oil paintings and photography. To make school life more enjoyable both to the faculty and to the students, Miss Blank works for harmony and coordination be- tween the students and the school. She is always willing to give guidance and help to all the students in their studies and social life.

But it seems that there can't be a gain without a loss, because Mr. Byland, who was our head janitor, has left. Taking' his place is Mr. Bonnar, who is doing: quite a good job-quite.

She occupies the main office and meets many of the students there. Then Miss Jean Sloan arrives. As secretary to Dr. Stewart, she also meets many of the students when she gives them their working permits. NShe is a graduate of South High. The secretary to the school board is Miss Ruth Mahaffey. She has her office down at the end of the hall and is also a graduate of Dor- mont High. She takes care of the financial accounts of the school. In Miss Reed's office there are a few little t'helpers who work f?J one period a day in the office. Any time you go in there, you will find one of them struggling with the switchboard. Miss Reed's peeve is all the children that are tardy. Miss Sloan's is the pupils that are pay- ing for books but don't know the name, only the color. Miss Ma- haffey's is the muscle she gets in her arm from working the adding machine when she is figuring out the income taxes.

It sounds simple but it required a lot of hard work from the staff, It Says Here! i' i 'A' TORCH 1945 Page 11 This year-l9454the an- nual tradition of e l ectin g Senior Class Officers was carried out successfully. Dur- ing our Freshmen, Sopho- more, and Junior years we had an opportunity to recog- nize our leade1's in various fields and appreciate their services, but in our Senior year we chose those who were to represent our class in our scholastic activities. Those who were to represent us were James Davis, our president, Leslie Lofquist, as vice president, Arthur Nass, treasurer, and Nancy Wible, the secretary. As you can see these are all outstanding members of the 1945 class, and they made capable lead- ers. 'lhese officers were imme- diately interviewed by a member of the Dormonitor staff, and their likes and dis- likes, ambitions, and favorite doings were brought to light. These facts proved quite in- teresting and enlightening- Jim Davis has a certain dream-girl in mind who is nice looking with a neat fig- uie and swell personality. His favorite song is Sunday, and his pet peeve is silly girls! He likes football best of all other sports. In fact, he someday hopes to be head coach of the Greentree Tech team. Jeanne Craine is his SE IOR OFFICERS ELECTED -Ng- I .Y f cf Art Nass, Jim Davis, Nancy lVible, Les Lofquist favorite m 0 v i e star.-vLes Lofquist thin k s a certain blond majorette is tops. He likes the song Letls Go Pickin' Cherries and dislikes Freshies on the football team. His favorite expression is O. K., you Rubeslt' His am- bition is to be an F. B. I. Agent. Art Nass seems to be more than a little interested in the city of Ebensburg and also a ceitain girl who lives there. His favorite sport is foot- Lall, but he doesn't like it when there are no blockers as he runs through the line. Donna Reed has first place on his list of movie-star fav- orites. Someday he hopes to be head of the Stove pipe gang. -Nancy Wible's ideal is one great big, nice Swede. She goes for Van Johnson in a big way too. Her pet ex- pression is t'Hot dog, and her favorite song is Rhap- sody in Blue. Her pet peeve is chewing gum on top of beds-of all places! She also likes a little song called Grandpa's Nose is a Little Red, But His Lunch Box is a Little Pale. Her ambi- tion is the same as Les's. They want to start the Lest You Fall Orphanage in California. Well, these are the class officers in person, and we know that you were proud to stand behind them just as all of us were proud of the other outstanding accom- plishments of the Class of 1945. Page 12 TORCH 1945 if 'A' 'A' PA S F N S Senior History Is As long as there isn't anything more important to do, I shall prop my feet upon the desk and lean back. My eyes lazily shift to the calendar, but so many numbers con- fuse me. I turn to the ceiling. It is very comforting to know that there is a roof over my head. Such a sense of security puts me in a reminiscent mood and my thoughts dwell on days of long ago-the day our class moved into D. H. S. and established itself. We weren't too unusual, except per- haps we got used to our own lockers more quickly than other classes. That was the year everyone was singing Chattanooga Choo-choo and Elmer's Tune. And we Freshies were still shooting paper- wads. It wasn't safe to walk through the halls at noon. Finally the administration slapped our hands and said No, no! Among other things that year came Moonlight Cocktail , the measles, and crewcuts. Our boys looked like sweet young convicts. G9 L. DORIS KIRK LAND The next year we learned the truth about dancing and accepted T. D.'s Boogie-Woogie and Moonlight Mood with gusto. Many noticed a few faint flutter- ings of the heart and began to take dating seriously. In such a con- dition, the girls decided they would look nice in boys' jackets. The boys consented readily, when their arms were twisted enough. With the same thought in mind the young ladies turned out in slacks. This was outrageous! All sorts of at- tempts were made to thwart the movement, but they all proved futile. Naturally. Who always wins the arguments? Some fellow by the name of Sinatra started singing. He had a nice voice. We liked to hear him sing Black Magic. While he was singing, some girl swooned-probably from claustro- phobia-and pretty soon they were passing out by the theatreful. By now we were Juniors. We sang Pistol-Packin' Mamma . The war was curtailing our sources of amusement, and we couldn't even get chewing gum. But we made the One of Great Glory best of it. Instead, we played 'fPaper Doll and parted our hair in the middle, and danced to f'Shoo- shoo Baby. As summer drew nigh, the boys got their annual shearing. Ugh! On fair weather days we girls knew we could find them playing Buck- buck after lunch. So nice to be able to keep track of them. Long ago and far away, I dreamed a dream one day- tata de dum. The next September we came to the beginning of the end. Would our last year be like the other three? we asked ourselves and waited to find out. It has been happy-in spite of Trig. tests. We've danced this year to I Walk Alone and lots more. Uniforms seem to have come into style for the boys, while the girls wear sil- ver ..... in their hair. 'fInto Each Life Some Rain Must Fall, so Till Then,', Don't Fence Me In. Which reminds me. I do have work to do. Besides, my feet have left big footprints on the desk.

We shall continue: Mrs. Aten replies to her hard- working girls, A word to the wise is, what, class? Mr. Church is often interrupted in the middle of a sentence by Mix Church, you're wanted on the phone. Mr. Dickerhoff's famous poem is, There was a little boy, Who isn't anymore, For what he thought was H2O, Was H:SO.. Miss Fretts, to her absent-mind- ed Freshman, Get your book and bring a tardy slip. Miss Luckhardt says when she has finished explaining a shorthand rule and the exceptions, Now here is the exception to the excep- tion. Mr. Luckey often tells his science classes, Now there are automo- biles and there are Fords. Miss McKinney tells her noisy boys to Be quiet or go to the office. Mr. McLaughlin always tells his bookkeeping students, Debit pur- chases forever and ever and even after that. Miss Paull often asks her seamstresses, Who broke that ma- chine? Mr. Robertson, after telling the boys something says, If the shoe fits, put it on. Miss Simon is often heard say- ing, Everyone has to hike, so get your coats on and get started. Mr. Snyder often remarks to his noisy Seniors, Quiet, the noise frightens mef' Miss Suckling is heard asking, 'tWho is coming to Current Events Club today? Since the words of these teach- ers leads to the words of the oth- ers, this column will be continued tomorrow. BOYS I THE SERVICE Breathes there a man with soul so dead, that never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land .... It's a wonderful feeling to be able to say those famous words. t'This is my own, my native land. Just think of what they mean for a moment-and perhaps now you'll appreciate more YOUR native land! There is perhaps no class better able to feel these words than the Class of 1945 as we proudly hail our service men, who were yesterday our fellow classmates in Do1'mont High School. Although they did not have an opportunity to finish their high school educa- tion, graduate, and enjoy the prom, class play, and all the other high- lights of any student's Senior year, they have the privilege of helping to finish what is, at the moment, one of the most important jobs of all. We can't help but feel proud of them and lighten up when we point out their names on the School Hon- or Roll, and say, 'tThey were in the 1945 class. Some of them left for the services before their Senior year and were given a welcoming smile when returning home for a visit with us. We know they are not working in vain, and we are right behind them in heart and spirit, so perhaps Whittier was right when he wrote these words of encouragement: Press bravely D onward!-not in vain Your gen- erous trust in human kind, The good which bloodshed could not gain, Your peaceful zeal shall find. So proudly we hail our pals and classmates whom we know as: James Black, Raymond Blair, Jack Dimmoch, Bob Brandenstein, Joe Durish, Ray Hilton, Thomas Lark- in, Leslie Lofquist, John QSkipJ Mattern, Tony Fazio, Ken Mc- Cusker, Lyle Merritt, Anthony Ping, Clarence Reed, Bill Sietz, John Sentz, Jack Scheck, Ed Si- mon, Ralph Stoker, Charles Greiner, Joseph Dykeman, and Gilbert Hoffman. They may be- come Generals or Admirals, but no matter what, they will always be the same boys we knew in Dor- mont High. They are our own heroes whether the nation gives them wide acclaim or not. They are the ones that are making it pos- sible for the Star Spangled Ban- ner to wave o'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave. T0 OUR PRESIDENT Peace be with thee, O our brother, In the spirit-land! Vainly look we for another In thy place to stand. Unto Truth and Freedom giving All thy early powers, Be thy virtues with the living And thy spirit ours! Whittier Page 14 TORCH 1945 if if af D THE WAR VICTGRIOUSLY THE MARCH OF EVENTS When school started in 1941, a class of Freshmen wandered around the halls in a daze. They didn't know where their rooms were, where the elevator was, and some of them couldn't even find the cafeteria. tlncidentally, some of them still haven't found itll Fin- ally, after a month or two in school, they became so Well acquainted with their teachers and fellow students that they started to breathe again. The next year they enjoyed watching the Freshmen of 'that year go through their first days. This made them feel so much su- perior that they got brave enough to talk in class and some even acted up a little in the halls. Then they became Juniors!!! This was really a step forward. Why, some of them even had dates'???'?? They looked at the Seniors with awe and knew they would soon become Seniors them- selves. Some of them even did. Finally the great moment ar- rived. An August 31, 1944, they walked into school feeling very good. They had reached the goal for which they had been striving for three long years. But, would they graduate? They struggled through their last year and then came graduation day. They had looked forward to it for a long time, but when it arrived most of them felt rather sorry to give up the good times they had had in school. Well, good luck to all of you!!! ODD FACTS NANCY WIBLE Dormont High School is oddly located because originally it was to be a Junior High School for the people of Dormont and Mt. Leb- anon, and the seniors were to at- tend South Hills High School. There are 62 pure glass windows in the front of Dormont High School and 50 steps from the first floor to the 3rd. N Our chemistry room was orig- inally intended to serve the pur- pose of a general science room! CLASS POEM From out your spacious, still interior. Your ivy cloaked brick and granite walls, To make this sphere a world superior, As Seniors, we must leave beloved halls. And tread new paths in 1ife's unbroken ground, In realms of vast achievement, schools of thought. These great unfathomed depths we have to sound With instruments of knowledge, learning brought From high school profs and lessons that we blindly fought. Behind us are the pleasant things of youth, The rooms, the classes, dear to every heart. And leaving them we come upon the truth, We see the value they to us impart, A value that within our make-up lies, One which forms our character and mind, Invests in us the willing power to rise And make secure unfinished task we find. These are the ties, old school, the greatest ties that bind. We'll miss your fine traditions and respect, That closeness only classmates entertain. And though it seems these things we all neglect, The memories We've created still remain. Each glimmer of the past will yet disturb Thoughts which bring to us a tear, a sigh That neither time nor weariness can curb. Yes, even till our time on earth is nigh, We've longing in our hearts for dear old Dormont High. F. HEINRICHS This room has suffered through these years without a hood twhich is a closet containing a fan, in which poisons are keptj. This is the factual reason why our chemistry students have suddenly disappeared! The high school which the Seniors of 1945 have attended for four years is Dormont High School! Upon entering this high school they were not certain that it was the right place, as our high school has no name on the front. At one time we had 900 stu- dents enrolled QB. W., before the warl. Our school library was once lo- cated in room 200, which has also served as a music room. The schedule of each Dormont High School student at one time included a period known as a Study Hall. Mr. Snyder fofficial statistics re- vealing his mustache to have 84 full grown hairsb has in actions revealed that in order to elevate one's mentality land also see what is going on in the normal class- roomj a platform 1115 inches from the floor will do the job quite suc- cessfully, and the 1945 seniors were the first to benefit by this new addition!

These were to be the exceptionally brilliant Seniors of 1945. We all gazed with awe at the mighty Seniors, the sophisticated Juniors, and the Sopho- mores. After we were installed in what were to be our homes for the next four years, our lockers, some of the more brave of our num- ber went to take a ride on the elevators. Some fortunate few had been able to purchase ele- vator tickets for only one dollar, Cboy, was I lucky IJ Among the most outstanding things in our Freshmen year were the marvelous assem- blies put on every Friday. We sat in the bleachers, and if we had binoculars we could see what was going on. As far as our grades were concerned in this year, we did very well, we passed every- thing except English, Latin, science, history, and algebra. Even though we had many dif- ficult situations to cope with, we finally be- came sophomores. On the first day of our Sophomore year, we stood at the front entrance and watched the Class of 1946 stumble through the door. We accomplished a lot as far as our studies were concerned, for in that year we learned how to master the intricate subjects of our courses. We also began to attend dances this year, sometimes we even danced. We really worked hard this year, and at last became Upperclassmen. The Junior year started off with a swell dance, the Fall frolic, sponsored by the DOR- MONITOR. There was also a unique dance sponsored by the Cheerleaders-minus mu- sic, the record machine broke down. The Class Rings for '45 were selected and prom- ised to us by February. Promptly on June 9 they arrived. They were well-liked and the whole school was envious. Now, after three long years of study and guidance by our beloved faculty, we finally became SENIORS. Socially, the Victory Dance, sponsored by the Glee Club, and the Cheerleaders' Dance were the main events. The most important happenings of our year as Seniors were, of course, Class Day and Graduation. The Seniors sponsored a hypnotist, E. K. Ernst, a football game between the Juniors and Seniors, a basketball game, and a wrest- ling match. The money went to the fund to buy a bronze Honor Roll for D. H. S. Serv- icemen. Leaving this memento from the Class of '45, we left Dormont High School much wiser and ready to face the future. P g 38 TORCH 1945 ir ak 'A' SERVICE AWARDS-JUNE 1945 Once every school year, there are those who are rewarded for out- standing work. These students are given Service Awards. 'Dormont High School is proud of these representatives, and it is only fitting that they should be remembered in some way for their honor. The TORCH of '45 is proud to list each class member and congratulates them.

Loeffler Dormont High School has the privilege of saying that they have the finest high school coach in Western Pennsylvania. He was born in Beaver Falls and here attended both grade school and high school. He took an active part in foot- ball, basketball, and baseball in high school and also at Geneva College, which he attended. He has been at Dormont High School for nineteen years. Dur- ing this time he has taught physics and aviation. When Coach Smith left for the Navy, Mr. Loeffler became Head Coach.

KLING 1' i' if TORCH 1945 Page 41 FOOTBALL DINNER! Our football team this year was certainly up on top as an A-1 out- fit. For such outstanding sports- manship and achievement, they were naturally to be acknowledged with a fine Y. M. C. A. football dinner in their honor. The members of the team, their parents, members of the faculty, and a few guests were among those present. After being seat- ed at the table, the guests were ef- ficiently served by the G. A. C. members. The dinner consisted of turkey, potatoes, green beans, cranberries, and saladg for dessert, pumpkin pie with coffee. Following the dinner the let- ters were presented to our 'fletter men by Coach Loeffler. Of those receiving letters, Bill Minnich, Bernie Powers, and Joe Rubino had been recognized in the group of Western Pennsylvania All Stars. Mr. Kling presented cer- tificates to the members of the team who merited them. Dr. Ro- beson, Coach Loef'f'ler, Coach Kling and Mr. Church were presented with certificates from the boys on the team. The evening was con- cluded with football movies and a good time was had by all. Y .

Torch Goes To A Football Game Football Season of 1944 very successful for Dor- Dormont's future teams the suc- cess and good fortune they de- were all we could ever expect from any team. Many thrilling The proved mont High School's football team. In good weather and bad, the team was supported by a large crowd, who cheered loud and long. They had good reason to cheer, too. The team played in full cooper- ation with each other. A touch- down or fleld goal for the team mattered more than personal glory. Still, We had some very outstanding members of the squad. Among them Jim Davis, Bernie Powers, Bill Minnich, Jim Hiscott, Joe Rubino, Don Wingertzahn, and many, many others. Did you ever see such large scores run up anywhere but in a professional team's game? Who knows, maybe we have some fu- ture professional stars in our ranks. Foward passing, running, blocking, and kicking extra points moments were had when a ball was thrown to a player down deep in our opponent's territory, or when a runner was cutting across the field on his way to a touch- down. The Class of '45 wishes all of serve. We wish to tell all the stu- dents returning to Dormont High next year to get out on that foot- ball field and support their team. That is what gives them the spirit ggi! to vin' ir ff af TORCH 1945 Page 43 SCORE AGAIN SNOWDEN--The Dor- mont Bulldogs opened their football season on their home field against Snowden. It was an exciting game for Dormont, and it set the pace for future games. During the afternoon, the Maroon and Gray scored again and again. Both the first and second teams were stars in their passing, run- ning, and blocking. After sixty minutes of thrills, the game ended with Dormont on the long end of a 38-0 score. After the game, Pow- ers was heard singing with gusto fGusto is the twelfth man on the teamb This is a lovely way to spend an after- noon. SOUTH HILLS - South Hill High School, long an old rival of Dormont, was the next team on our schedule. South Hills had one of the heaviest teams we played, and was highly praised by city schools. Duiing the tirst quarter, Bernie Powers had his glass- es broken, but was not in- jured. The first half was a counting dual, but late in the second quarter, Dormont broke loose for a touchdown. Again in the second half Dormont scored, and al- though South Hills put on such a desperate attack in the final moments of play that it drove the Bulldogs back to their seven yard line, Dormont won the game 14-0 -another victory and shut- out for the Maroon and Gray. CARRICK-Dormont met Carrick on a hot, dry field at Dormont. After just seven plays, Dormont had a touchdown. The rest of the half was a passing and punt- ing dual. Very late in the second quarter, Dormont scored to make it 12-O. The third quarter was an endurance contest, to see which could take the grind- ing play and the hot sun the better. In the fourth quar- ter, Dormont started rolling down the field and gained another touchdown. Car- rick put on a last minute spurt to score, but did not succeed. The game ended with Dormont abead 18-0. Rubino said, Some day I'm going to lose my temper. CRAFTON-The Bulldogs were just hitting their pace when Crafton's 'game ar- rived. It was a hustliug team that went on the field at Dormont that Friday afternoon, and they had a stiff game ahead for them. Crafton was out to win, too, and both teams meant business. During the Hrst quarter Bill Minnich dislo- cated his hip, and after play- ing a hard few minutes he was replaced. Joe Rubino made all three of Dormont's touchdowns, the score at the end of the game being 19-0. The Mo- roon and Gray were out to win for their school and their injured teammate. BRENTWOOD-Dormont met and defeated Brent- wood High on the home field by the convincing score of 18-0. This was another feather in the cap of the Bulldogs. Brentwood, as a result of this defeat, was put out of the running in the W.P.I.A.L. race for section honors. Joe Rubino and Bernie Powers were the spearheads of the attack, and with the splendid pro- tection of their forward wall, they were able to exe- cute their plays with deadly accuracy. Dormont scored in the first chapter of the game, in spite of the menac- ing drive by the lads from Brentwood. The ball re- mained near the middle of the field after another score in the second period, until the local lads scored their last touchdown in the final quarter. The scrap was by no means one sided, but in spite of a spectacular pass- ing attack, the Maroon and Gray emerged the victors. McKEES ROCKS - Un- beaten, unscored upon, Dor- mont was scheduled to meet McKees Rocks on what seemed to be a beautiful, sunny day, until about an hour before the game, when it started to rain. The field was already muddy from a rain earlier in the week, it made the field a mucky mess. For almost three quar- ters, the teams marched up and down the field, not get- ting anywhere. Near the end of the third quarter, a Rox tackle intercepted a pass from Dormont and slushed fifty-five yards to a touchdown. It was the only score of the game, and brought the Bulldogs their first defeat and their first time to be scored upon for the year. ti. CARNEGIE - Determined to avenge the defeat of the preceding week, Dormoint met Carneg'ie, a much blit- ger and heavier team. 'Iliat afternoon, Dormont seemed to have an immovable line, even though Carnegie did score once. Dormont had possession of the ball most of the afternoon, and madn- the most of it. Dormont scored and scored again. Carnegie had to punt when- ever they got the ball, which gave Dormont more chances to roll up a score. When the whistle blew, Dormont had a score of 26-6. All the boys on the team were happy over a suc- cessful year, and Dormont High was proud of them, too. The team-work and spirit our boys showed dur- ing all the games is some- thing for all to remember. and for future teams to live up to. BALDWIN Dormont took the ball on the kickoff, and Baldwin nevcr touched the pigskin till the eleven had crossed Baldwin's goal. The extra point was good, and the score read 7-0. In the sec- ond quarter, Bill Minnich. scored and Rubino ran the extra point. Baldwin lost the ball on downs, and the Maroon and Gray scored again. Bill Minnich, this time with a dislocated shoul- der, crossed their goal again. The kick for the ex- tra point was low so the score stood 20-0 Dormont. Towards the last oi' the sec- ond quarter Baldwin caught the boys napping and made their only expedition past our goal. From here on, the game was a complete slaugh- ter with Powers, Davis, Nass, Hoover, Tons, Boucher, Dui- ish, and Rutledge all con- tributing in outstanding fashion, either passing or running points over the op- ponents' goal. So, as the day finally darkened, the two teams left the Held, one a very tired beaten team, the other the proud posses- sors of a satisfying 51-7 vic- tory. SENIORS vs. JUNIORS In a last minute drive by Joe Rubino, the Juniors broke through to defeat the Seniors 7-6. The scoring was light, but the fighting was great. The Seniors' score was made by Bill Kel- ly on an intercepted pass. The Juniors were coached by Mr. Loeffler, and the Senior team by Bill Minnich. Both teams had bands and fine class representation. The proceeds of the game were donated to the Honor Roll Fund. Page 48 TORCH 1945 if if 'A' BASKETBALL The first eight games of the 1945 Basketball season were ex-- hibition games with Bridgeville, Allegheny Vocational, Clark, Belle- vue, Langley, Duquesne, South Hills, and Schenley. The Do1'mont floormen won six out of the eight, defeating all the opposing teams but Langley and Duquesne. The scoring was led in these games by Tons, Scotti and Scott. BRENTWOOD WINS-The Bulldogs began their league games by a disappointing defeat at the hands of Brentwood at the Brent- wood Gym. The surprising score of 36-11 was turned in by a pretty confused team. The boys recuperated but not sufficiently to break their losing stretch. CARNEGIE DEFEATS DORMONT--The next game was with Carnegie on the Clark High Hoor. The Dormont lads held their worthy opponents till the last period when the Carnegie team forged ahead to register a close win against the improving Bulldogs. CRAFTON DEFEATED-In the next game with Crafton the Bulldogs, although not up to par, showed an increased will to win. The boys decisioned their opponents by a score of 35-33. This was aufree scoring game with both teams able to net their scores with little trouble. Dave Scott stepped into the lime light as a high scorer with 16 points to his credit. George Tons piled up 12 points towards his exceptionally high record this season. BULLDOGS WIN FROM STOWE-Dormont High and Stowe tangled on the home Hoor in a close contest with the Bulldogs break- ing a 10-10 tie in the first quarter to give the boys from Stowe a 38-26 defeat. Scotti, Tons and Minnich led in the points scored column. MT. LEBANON 26-DORMONT 20-The Blue Devils from Mt. Lebanon showed Dormont a real free for all. ln spite of their co- operation and a fine defense against their opponents the Dormont lads could not quite break the edge and left the scene of battle on the short end of the score. DORMONT DEFEATS CORAOPOLIS - Dormont made 14 points in the first period of the game. The Bulldogs piled up a score 42-27. McKEES ROCKS 34-DORMONT 16-McKees Rocks enter.- tained Dormont in their gym and handed them a 34-16 defeat. They pulled up from a 4-4 tie in the first quarter to win, holding the Dor- mont lads at bay successfully. DORMONT BOWS TO BRENTWOOD-The Dormont floor men met Brentwood again and were defeated by 10 points in a tough game. The Brentwood boys got a lead of 10 points in the first quar- ter and were able to maintain it throughout the game. DORMONT vs. CARNEGIE-This game was Dormont's till the 4th quarter when Carnegie tied the score. In the last minute of the game Carnegie sank a Hswishern and the final score read, Carnegie 34-D. H. S. 323, DORMONT DEFEATS CRAFTON-The Bulldogs defeated the Crafton team 33-21. Dormont seemed to be in control the entire game. Dave Scott was high score man with 10 points. STOWE vs. DORMONT-Adolph Scotti led the scoring against Stowe. He piled up 16 points. The team responded and came through with a convincing score of 45-39. MT. LEBANON 44-DORMONT 34h-The Mt. Lebanonites se- cured a 7-5 lead in the first quarter and despite Scott's and Rubino's concentrated eEorts they eked out a 44-34 victory. DORMONT and CORAOPOLIS-Cory turned around and shel- lacked the local quintette 54-32 with a superior team. The floor was small and the fouls manyg but the winning team was too much for the Bulldogs. LEOFFLER MEN END SEASON-Dormont defeated McKees Rocks 29-21. This was Doimont's last game and the Bulldogs fin- ished their seasozi by t' ouncing this highly touted Rox team. Scotti copped scoring honors with 12 points. Dormont won 12 games and lost 10, giving the team an average of .545 for the season. ,I 1- I 'A' ir ir TORCH 1945 Eggs: The above picture is of Dormont High School's Basketball squad.

MAJ ORETTES When you see the band parad- ing' down the field, the first thing you notice is that there are five girls in front. Upon close ob- servation you identify them as the Majorettes with their shining bat- ons. They march on down the Held-stop-the band plays the Star Spangled Banner and Dor- n1ont's Alma Mater-they face the student body and twirl their bat- ons to the Cheerleaders' Song. At the half the majorettcs per- forin to everyone's delight. Every girl shows the great amount of training she has had to represent Dormont High School and the band. But, perhaps you don't see them when they are hard at work practicing for those appearances. There are new routines to be learned, formations to be worked out, and little defects to be cor- rected. All this is part of their job in order to put on a worth- while performance. If you were at the Band Con- cert this year, you saw 'them all dressed up in dungaces, plaid shirts, red handkerchiefs, and hugre straw hats which it gave that add- ed touch to their novelty routine to Donlt Fence Me In. For a climax, the song' 'tAnchors Aweigrhn was heard and they proudly strutted in wearing the Navy Blues! So hats off to our Majorettes: Nancy Wible, Bar- bara Blair, Jane Williams, Jean Zinsmeister, and Dorothy Diemar. m bf! W-Al 1 .f,,.a'-W l i .. .--ft - Vt, V, wt Q, s. ga ,,VV My 740,91 .

Page 50 TORCH 1945 ir 'A' if WRESTLING Holding' a position in our Sport's calendar was another activity be- sides Football and Basketball. It was wrestling. Mr. Dickerhoff has done well in developing and fur- thering the science of wrestling' at Dormont. Those returning to the mats with last and previous year's ex- perience were: Bernie Powers, a letter man, Tom Hanzas, Frank Heinrich, Mike Rubino, Chuck Christen, Daryll Homer, John Prezioso. Bernie and Mike went to Penn State last year to repre- sent Dormont. Around these few as a Coach Dickeroff formed this year's team. This is their story. We hadn't much to go on but we went anyhow, on the 16th of January, to Shadyside Academy. We were beaten 10-3 but not with- out a fight. t'Depe and Mike won and we came home beaten only by a score. Were the wrestlers down in morale? Not on your life! We went to Canonsburg on the 23rd of January and the Gun- ners won 11-4. Tommy Hanzas and Bernie won decisions. We trained till the 2nd of February when a better looking bunch gave the Carnegie matmen a good 7-5 niatch. iWe got the 5.1 Hom- er, Prezioso, Rubino, Heinrichs, and Powers secured decisions. On the 7th we defeated Shadyside 8-5. Homer, DePierre, Christen, Han- z.1s and Rubino turned in scores. Mike pinned their men. We felt fine, wonderful, like wrestlers, till Chartiers beat us by an unmentionable score. We had 1 point Thanks, Mike-But we had to forfeit 6 matches.-Not enough material. t'Killer Dressel and 'Turkl Heinrichs worked out for a week after that. On February 22, Carnegie beat us 10-5. Bill Phillips won by de- cision, Bernie pinned his man, and Tom Hanzas and Mike drew. We got up f1'om the mats, recovered, and went to West View to loose again 10-3. Mike secured a fall, and Bernie decisioned. Frank Heinrichs won a decision in an ex- hibition match. Finally on March the 2nd, we were defeated by Washington, 8- 5. Winning for D.H.S. were Hom- er. Phillips Rubino, and Heinrichs. This was all for '45 except that Mike, Daryll and Bernie went Lo Waynesburg for the W.P.I.A.L. Championships, and came home in the following order: Bernie first, who lost his iirst match, Daryll second, who lost out in the semi- finals, and Mike, runner up for the 138lb. championship. Coach Dickerhoff, chairman of the wrest- ling committee was proud of them. We are proud of the coach. I guess this is all we have to say. We don't think we did too badly at all under the existing circumstances. So long. See you next year. Here are the names of the '45 team: Lou Rage, Jim Milligan, Daryll Homer, John Prezioso, Bob De Pierre, Bob Hall, Frank Huber, Ed Collins, Chuck Christen, George See, Mike Rubino, Bill Phillips, Frank Heinriehs, Tom Hanzas, Bob Hartnett, Bernie Powers and Rich Dressel. The Inter-class wrestling tour- naments on March 27th were won by the Sophomores, the Juniors and Freshmen followed, and the Seniors were last. The Champions of the different weight classes are as follows: 85-lb., Bob David, 95-lb., Lou Ragog 105-lb., Jim Milligan: 115-lb., Preziosog 125- lb.. Bob De Pierreg 135-lb., Bouch- erg 145-lb., Bill Phillipsg 155-lb., Joe Rubinog 165-lb., Frank Hein- richs, and heavyweight, Tubby Dunn. af if af TORCH 1945 Page 51 TRACK Following Spring to this hemi- sphere, particularly to Dormont High came track. Did you ever see anyone run a mile in a hard race with Spring' Fever? Well, if you saw a track meet at Dor- mont, you'll know what I mean. This year's prospects were for a fine season. The team was ljlllli, around a few who had returned after one, two, or three years of experience. Chuck Thomas put the shot, along' with Joe Rubino, Chuck and Tintlenot threw the javelin. These few were fleet of foot, and had come back for an- other season on the cinders-Bob Boucher, Len Kist, Dick Denni- son, Art Nass, Jack Haseman, and a few others. The field was full of talented athletes. There was Bill Knopfel and Don Foreman, pole vaulting. Don was out to set some records this year, even if he had to snatch a few pieces of cloud to do it. He did, too. The Seniors won the Interclass track meet this year 2X3 of a point. The Juniors were second, . 'Wa and a very close second at that. All events were won by ability and perseverence. There was no element of luck in the thing' at all, so it was a pretty entertaining meet for the spectators, and a very competitive meet for the par- ticipants. At any rate, the Sen- iors won this year, but . . . and a very large but, they won't be around to watch the Freshmen of today become champs. l gl Y Page 52 TORCH 1945 'A' 'A' ir BAND beat of the drums, trumpets' blare, It's the lt's the It's the Winkle in a little child's eye, It's the cr0wml's that yell, All of these tell Our Band is passing by. And what a band it is with their DORMONT TRACK TEAM OF '45 maroon and gray uniforms, shiny instruments a,nd neat formations. Mr. Luckey leads our band. He does a fine job of selecting- ap- propriate music for all occasions. Our band is always ready ,to do its part to represent the school. They march at football games, parade on Memorial Day, and give an an- nual band concert. At this YQHIJS concert, the band played an out- standing: performance. A novelty number about Lizzie was the main attraction. But it takes many hours of practice and work to present such a fine performance, hence, give a cheer and be mighty proud when the Dormont High School Band, our banil, goes marching by. .. -.-... -tcm.. snnnwcnn 1 l 1 CHEERLEADERS Every school needs cheerlead- ers to help the cheering section back up its team. Dormont's cheerleadeis are Ann Dattilo, Lois Beckfield, Isabelle Brahm and Patty Joyce. These girls kept up the spirit of the team through rain and cold weather, and they de- selve a lot of credit. They helped our team when it played foot ball away as well as at home. It is hard for a few girls to get the attention and cooperation of a large group of students, but these four succeeded. Besides cheering at the football game- they helped out at the basketball games, too. They taught other students to cheer when they gave up their time dur- ing nice weather to lead Cheer- leaders' Club. This club also sponsored a dance which was held in the gym. The head of the club is Mr. Reed. Three of the girls are seniors and one is a junior. Since the three will graduate in June, others will be chosen from the girls and boys who are mem- bers of the Cheerleaders' Club. All four of the girls were members of the club for two or three years and learned the words Q 1' . gf! Xi if 'A' if TORCH 1945 Page 53 and motions to the old cheers. Then, when they became regular cheerleaders, they made up' some new ones which we have been using. These were added to the old ones. Our congratulations go to these four girls, and we wish Ann, Lois, Isabelle and Patty all the success possible. an COLOR BEARERS Dormont High School had seven color bearers this year. The Sen- iors were Miriam Jett, Doris Kirk- land, and Donna Warnock. The Juniors were Shirley Beadling, Dorothy Clemens, and Jeanne Graver. The Sophomore was Ann Englehart. The job of the color bearers is to march down the Held with the band, majorettes, and cheerlead- ers, and carry the Dormont flag up to the far end of the field to me raised. They are representatives of our school in maroon and gray. The color bearers achieve this honor by being elected by their own classes. Elections are held every year and just a small per- centage of the girls can become color bearers. So it is really a high honor. The color bearers have to march through the rain and mud just like the football team plays in. It is not always a pleasant job. The girls wear maroon and gray satin costumes to represent the school colors. They all appreci- ate the honor they have received, and as representatives of our school, they do their best. Page 54 TORCH 1945 'A' 'Ir ir DORMONITOR One of the most exciting days in the week is Thursday, when the DORMONITOR is distributed. The school newspaper dates back to built. The DORMONT first issue, when the school was name of it then was HL-LIFE. Since its the school newspaper has always been a symbol of the school. This year the Editor-in-Chief was Mary Milligan. A lot of credit goes to her and to the rest of the staff for the good work they have done. The editor has the responsibil- ity of figuring out the make-up for each publication and super- vising the rest oi' the staff. When she gets a dummy set up, the Feature and News Editors, Mary- ann Rehm and Florence McWade and the Assignment Editors, who are Nancy Trevorrow, Dick Stoelt- zing, and Lois Doeblin, make up the headlines and send out the as- signments to the reporters who are at present: Blair Stitt, Eleanor Davis, Clarence Goldeck- er, Nancy Metcalf, Arthur Scotti, Jim Milligan, Joan Bigoni, Marj- orie Donaghy, Marjorie Rodgers, Jim Williams, Gwen Bach, Phil Levine, Leonard Samuelson, Bar- bara Smith, Mary Jane Larkin, Lois Menard, Audrey Binder, and Pat Healy. When these students hand in their articles, the job of proof-reading for errors in gram- mar, spelling, and accuracy starts. The Copy Readers are Betty Je Ramsey, Mary Tambellini, Ernest Sofis, and Petrina Cipriana. The Co-Sports Editors are Charles Greiner, first semester, Jim Davis, the second. The Sports Writers are Arthur Scotti, Jim Milligan, and Frank Heinrichs. These boys wrote up the articles about the football games, basketball games, wrestling matches, and track. Then the Art Department did their work. The Art editor, Izilla Ster- ling, and her assistant, Betty By- ron, made the wonderful Finoleum cuts that appeared in each issue. The Columnists wrote their special columns which are Beats and Bars, Bob Deahlg Features, Doris Kirk- land and Phil Levine, The Quiet Observer - Freshman, Marjorie Donaghyg Sophomore, Ruth Atkin- song Junior, Norma Mocabeeg Senior, Nancy Wibleg and Snitch- ed Bits, Erla Mae Johnston. When all the articles were in, typed by Miriam Jett and Virginia Lofe, and published, it was up to the Circulation Manager, Ruth Mil- ler to get a copy to everyone who had subscribed. Then the Exchange Editor saw to it that it was given to about twenty other schools and we got theirs. This was the job of Erla Mae Johnston. This is also how we obtained the column, Snitched Bits. Muriel Reynods, the Business Manager, took care of the financial end by taking care of the books and bills. The Ad- vertising Manager, Bob Muhl, did a splendid job in getting more ad- vertising than we have had in previous years. Two older per- sons are needed to help the stu- dent staff and they were: Miss Morrow, Editorial Advisor, and Miss Wood, Business Advisor. Through these people, the rest of the school has had the fun of reading write-ups of the import- ant events of the school such as the sports events, assemblies, Va- rieties, Band Concert, s p e c ia l meetings, Bond and Magazine Campaigns, and election results. We are also able to read the clever gossip columns, interesting editor- ials, and feature stores. It was exciting to note the famous Lock- er Lingo. Publishing a newspaper of this size is a hard job and everyone on the staff deserves as much credit. as anyone can give. Everything connected with the DORMONI- TOR requires a lot of hard labor. They all have their jobs to do and have done them to the best of their ability. We all know how popular the DORMONITOR is when we see the halls every other Thursday. Ev- eryone walks around in a daze trying to read it and do a dozen different things at the same time. The articles are discussed in the halls and become the talk of the school. After the news calms down, we begin looking forward to the next issue. ot oi QP dike X00 ng! if mix? 00 0 1 O 6x e fbbgqxed me ix4g0'S 411009 61101 axe 96 ei geo XY QYXG fiteiwcfix QM: G We , 'Coe W ooicoo 6 80110 XYAXK e 10 'SO X 'be' ve die Kat -3001 K QW MB 0 .499 -aklxc 30 No 6 061 at 6 '69 S 6399. 09 9 690 W5 Q4 sex. efxogv- 9 05 5097 6 . 9' XX 6 S xixoq, X 2-6 ixdtzixn to 0 foam 0219 40 ' K5 90 Ce, QXYQ.

Noth- ing like it has ever been present- ed in Dormont High School, and if you were lucky enough to se- cure a ticket at eight o'clock, you would have been seated in the Little Theater of D. H. S. The lights went low-the music softly started-and the curtains parted, revealing a sleeping grandmother fportrayed by Roberta Holzery Her granddaughter fNancy Wibleb entered and awoke her impatient- ly, asking her to take a trot with her to see the windows at Marshall Fields. So off they trotted, and arriving at their destination, the curtains again parted, revealing this time a fashion display window at Marshall Fields. This display was labeled Slumber Party and showed these girls in pajamas and house coats: Erla Mae Johnston, Dorip Olsen, Margery VVilliams, Virginia Donaldson, Mary Lou Ferrang, Martha Haffner, Marge Rodgers, Emma Fontanna, Flor- ence Graticelli, Anna Habeiman, Joan Mulherron and Joyce Goethe. Following this was the Break- fast Club with dainty api ons and brunch coats worn by Mary Pos- tel, Lois French and Virginia Murphy. UH. M. S. Pinafore 8: Jumper Bugs sailed smoothly into shore with passengers such Joyann Frank, Lois Menard, Betty Grif- fith, Lillian Lyngheim, Lou Marie Gallagher, Mary Belegiis, Nancy Haynes, Regina Liadis and Caro- lyn Robertson. The South Park Picnic outfits made us all long for summer, especially when modeled by Nancy Metcalf, Joan Johnston, Sally Dickson, Therese Petrone, Har- iiett Pigoni, Marilyn Cook, Louise Anderson, Shirley Williams, Mar- garet Hanley. The next window said Baller- ina and was represented by Lois Coleman, Marge Donaghy, Janet Fleming, Sally Dittmer, Joan Pi- goni, Ann Mikesell, Ann Rice and Mary Foster. A Man's World broved that women must have slacks and ap'- piopriate clothes in order to take over jobs left Vacant by those who have gone into the service. These were modeled by Miriam Haber, Grace Wilke, Miriam Flecker, Jean Zinsmeister, Jean Pacine, Jeanne Muck, Betty Santoma and Martha Wilke, The Town and Country dis- play gave ideas for 'tall around clothes with Helen Ruble, Mar- ilyn Wallace, Dorothy Hasley, Jane Hasley, Mary Robertshaw, Maryann Stewart, Charlotte Hert- rick, Jane Moyer and Jean San- dora. Spectators were Very fash- ionable and were displayed by Sophia Petrakes, Audrey Smith, Joan Smith, Helen Weber, Bai- bara Smith, Dona Mae Schriber, Lois Rapaport, Rita Werner and Thelma Staub. The Beau Catchers caught the eye of many 21 girl-especiab ly those who chose the patterns- Mary Diodati, Lois Nalitz, Patty Palma, Dorothy Elcock, Dolores Markle, Carol Scott, Jean Wili- mering, Pat Prehoda, Alice Rath- ke and Shirley Moss. Meet Me At Seven Was en- couraging, modeled by Doi is Eiler, Harriet Hilsenrath, Meridith Mc- Cormick, Betty Orr, Joan Paull, Evelyn Thomas, Dona Mae War- nock, Nancy Blair, La Verne Ulh- man and Chrysanthe Bolaris. The evening gowns in Waltz Time were perfect for formal dances and featured Louise Ru- bino and Ruby Stevens. Everyone went away talking about the climax, The Easter Parade. The lovely, picturesque and stylish suites, coats and jack- ets were ideal for the Easter Pa- raders, who were Audrey Binder, Rita Seibel, Miriam Jett, Marge Konstanzer, Ann Dattilo, Pat Healy, Betty Rubino, Dolores Ber- nauer, Marilyn Buckley, Anna Crosser, Doris Miller, Dorothy Veatch, Marge Foster and Dor- othy Powell. Even grandmother confessed fthough her feet did hurt herj that times have changed since grandma was a girl. And said I wonder how I'd look in a pair of slacks? So now you see how Dormont High School went stylish in 1945. , v r! .-...f Q 'iq- i V ,N -v' - TN , '3-2 ' 4 , N. , 'iw :-f . s A ffm' 1, . 1 A .. ,- ,F xt V l Xxx...

During' the year the girls partici- pated in such sports as: bowling, basketball, bad- minton, pine'-pong, shuffleboard, volley ball and roller skating. The girls also served at the football and teachers' banquets. Monthly meetings were held. At one of these the girls had as their guest, a dancer from the famous Rockettes in New York. For attending' these meetings and taking part in the various activities the girls received points to- ward getting: letters, for which eight hundred points are required. The G.A.C. contributed twenty-five dollars to the Glee Club's fund for their gowns and also bought their own ping-pong, bowling' and Badminton equipment. The officers were Ruth Jones, Presidentg Virginia Kelly, Vice liresidentg Muriel Reynolds, Secretary, and Gwen Bach, Treasurer. Miss Simons is the sponsor of this club. The Cheerleaders' Club of fifty members is un- der the sponsorship of Mr. Reed. The club meets every Wednesday in the spring and fall. They practice the cheers which stir our team to victory and help familiarize the student body with the cheers. Future cheerleaders are selected from this club by the students themselves. These cheer- leaders lead the entire school in cheering at foot- ball and basketball games. Head cheerleader this year was Ann Datillo. The other cheerleaders were Lois Beckfield, Isabel Brahm and Patty Joyce. A dance was also sponsored by this club for the ln- jury Fund. Page 58 TORCH 1945 ak -A' uk BOYS' GLEE CLUB The Boys' Glee Club, consisting of twenty members, under the sponsorship of Miss Margaret Perkins, meets every Tuesday afternoon at 3:15. They furnish the Vocal music for Christmas, Easter, Bacculaureate and Varieties. They always have a very en- tertaining part in the Spring Festival. This year, with the Girls' Glee Club, they held a dance for the purpose of raising money to purchase choir robes. The officers for this year were: President, Tom Hanzasg Vice President, Frank Wilsong Secretary-Treasurer, Bob Holloway. LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club is one club which directly serves the school. This club never consists of more than a baker's dozen, which is thirteen girls, who help to run our high school library. Every year there is a doughnut fry at the home of Mrs. Foresman, who is sponsor of the club, and the1'e is also an annual clean-up picnic in June. You can get the idea of the picnic by its name. This year, the club, to entertain the men in hospitals, made U. S. O. Scrapbooks. The officers for this year were Mary Steinhilper, President, Virginia Was- losky, Vice President, and Harriet Hil- senrath, secretary. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girls' Glee Club consisting of forty-six members is an organization for all girls who have singing ability. It is under the leadership of Miss Mar- garet Perkins and meets every Monday afternoon at 3:15.

This year the club held one dance for the purpose of building up a fund for purchase of choir robes for its members. The officers for this year were Nancy Kuhns, Presidentg Erla. Mae Johnston, Vice President, Clarice Chalfant and Sally Sutton as secre- taries. , 1 -3 PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The newest club of the year was the Photography Club under the sponsorship of Mr. Loeffler. It proved very successful for the amateur photographers. Subjects for pictures were varied and sometimes humorous, prizes were given for the best pictures. The officers of the club were Jack Pearce, Presidentg Dominic Cala- brese, Vice Presidentg Muriel Reynolds, Secretary, and George Dykeman as T1'93.Sl11'91'. After such a fine beginning as this club had, it should be carried on for many years to come. if if ar Tonci-1 1945 Page 59 J H 'V r i STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council under the su- pervision of Miss Blank has an im- portant pluce in the schoo1's operation.

It is a great deal of work to get a hot lunch ready for a crowd of hungiy boys and girls. We are fortunate in having Mrs. Skillington as head of our cafeteria. She has been in Dormont High School since 1928g seventeen years of trying' to satisfy everyone at all times. On the staff is Miss Elizabeth Coleman, the cook, has been here for eight years. Mrs. Nora Strine has lpeen making' our pies and cakes for two years. The salads have been made by Mrs. Laura Fisher, who has been at Doimont High for a year. The newest member of the group is Mrs. Emma Barr. who has been making' our sandwiches for about six nionths. Two banquets a. year are given, the P. S. E. A. and Football Banquet, and Mrs. Skillington in charge of the dinners. These banquets in addition to getting two meals a day for about four hundred youngsters are not easy. mf?-Y 'e.R'vIS2l ' L l L sf- 62 TORCH 1945 ir i' ir 2, Q 2 5 231219 IU -- fi is Wv Q7 T 1:17543 U WQOYQ .V 47 'Xxxe.w6'-74' , , XV 2' 51k is !, v Q Q?

Robertson, James Rutledge, Student Mana- ger, held on May 3 and 4, was one of the major events of 1945. It gave everyone a humorous glimpse of life back in the 'tgod old days compared with entertainment pre- sented today. The scenery was ef- fective in creating the mood, and it paved the Way for a great show. Under the able direction of Mrs. DeHaven, the boys' Tap Chorus presented an entertaining part of the show. George W. Robertson made the girls' Tap Choruses the outstanding spot of the evening. The months of practice showed in the finished product. Miss Paul created the costumes that were X . 'I worn. The routines were created by Ann Dattilo, Ann Engleliart, and Nancy Wible. Miss Simons and Mr. Kling worked long and hard with their groups, and the girls' and boys' tumbling acts held everyone spell- bound, as usual. The orchestra was under tne personal direction of Mr. Luckey and the Glee Club under Miss Perkins. The lovely scenery required woi k by many members of the Art classes. This work was under the supervision of Mr. Reed. They certainly did a grand piece of work. The props used in the scenery such as the street lights, fire plugs, and street signs were made by Mr. Agnew's shop class. Mr. Bonnar gave wonderful coop- eiation in every way during re- hearsals and the actual perform- ances.

Well, no one can, so don't try. We Iind, however, that atmo- sphere plays an important part in the show. Just who creates this atmosphere? Surely you've no- ticed them hanging from ladders and swimming' through buckets of paint. These are the busy beavers who put the scenery together, hook up the lights, dab the paint on the right placs, and make the picture quite complete. They are also scraping paint out of their finger- nails for the next four weeks. But their eHorts have not been in vain. The street scene in this year's Varieties was the best ever. All the time and eiort spent were worth it, because this scenery cer- tainly helped to make the show a success. Here are the names of these hard workers: Jim Jeifrey, Reid Kelly, Jim Hiscott, Don Goethe, Bob Lauer, Jim Milligan, Lindsay Anderson, George Meighen, Joan McCarthy, Geraldine Eisenhuth, Marlene Delp, Izilla Sterling, Shir- lie Fraelich, Janet Bair, Barbara Irvine, Alec Fenton, Don Kelly, Chuck Ligo, Sheldon Munro, Mar- tha Evans, Nancy Forster, Jean Schrieber, Al Morrone, Betty By- rom, and Lois Daiber. And who is behind all this? You saw Mr. Reed down in the gym supervising the job and mak- ing sure the right scenery tech- nique was being' used, light effects shown, and construction crew clamping ropes and wires to the ceiling to make everything secure. Withoui Mr. Reed and his stage crew and painters, WHATEVER would Varieties do? It just wouldn't be the same!

Program for Physical HEALTHLAND Our healthland is our gym, in- structors are Miss Simons and Mrs, DeHaven. Mr. Kling and Mr. Rob- ertson are in charge of the boys. In the gym the girls play volley ball, basketball, and other group gil1ll8S. The boys play basketball, volley ball, box, tumble, and wrestle. During nice Spring weather, they go out on the ath- letic field and play mushball and track. Once a week, the classes go on a, hike through Dormont, Mt. Lebanon, or Banksville. Some days they have exercises, cales- thentics, and stunts. Education They have gym three times a week and hygiene twice. In hy- giene, they have discussions about conditions existing in school, and about their health. Sometime pic- tures on health or related sub- jects are shown. The school nurse, Miss Wilson, gives talks in the girls' hygiene classes. Also, the healthland of Dor- mont High High School consists of Dr. Klueber and the school nurse. There is a dentist in one of the grade schools. Everyone does his part to keep up the health of the students. Lately, shots were given to see if anyone had signs of tuberculosis. The positive cases were taken to the Bedford Clinic for X-rays. Other tests of this type are given at dif- ferent times to prevent disease. The healthland also pro- duces quite a few good athletes. Many of the boys go out for bas- ketball, football, track, wrestling, and tumbling. The girls have tumbling teams, and a club which goes bowling, and swimming, and hiking, besides contributing to the sports of the schol. With all these activities to build up their health, they should all look like Charles Atlas! HEALTH FOR F TURE ATIO X 2 Hof x1xOEx4c I wo 6096 r- Kgp-! ?xx,o'i-vioxx mxxlgrle Qw-wht Ps cap-fx-xx' ov.
