4 ,.,, STEVIC SCHROIJPIRBIZK XV,XI.'l'liR l3.XR'l'KO BlL'l l'Y DAVIS MELVIN SPADA 'il To the Tune of Four Years Together Seniors! Such a lovely word. NVC all worked so hard for eleven years for the honor of becoming seniors. The class of '47 started school at the age of five or six, in 1936. We attended Kennedy, Crawford, Oliver, or Duquesne Place Schools and some of us went to Parochial Schools. How anxious we were to begin school, and once we were there, how eager we were to go home again. The first three years were quiet and uneventful, but the fourth year something wonderful happened. We changed classes. How welcome that little walk from class to class was. After the fourth and fifth grades we were promoted to Lebengood School. Our school days were now half over. Then came junior High School! At last we were grown up, or, so we thought. With Junior High came gym and swimming, foot- ball and basketball games, and assemblies. Ninth grade was won- derful. We were the oldest group in the school and everyone treat- ed us with respect. We looked forward to high school the next year. The crushing blow came when we found that no one re- spected the lowly little sophomores. We were the forgotten race. Tile picked up the next year because we became Juniors. Only one more year until graduation. The term of '46-'47 was quite eventful. Our football team won the Steel Valley Conference Trophy and our championship basketball team went to Phila- delphia where Allentown beat them by four points. The president of the Class of 1947 is Steven Schroderbek, vice president is Mlalter Bartko, Melvin Spada is Treasurer, and our Secretary is Betty Davis, who was also class secretary for the junior Class. The class play was You Can't Take It With You by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman, given on the fourteenth and fif- teenth of May, with a special performance for the Veterans of Aspinwall Hospital on the twenty-first of May. The climax of the year was Commencement, held for the first time at the athletic field on the evening of May twenty-eighth. Lois Morgan and Shirley Stolpe 12
