Thomas Gessner, Sophia Ikach, and l,orin Bayhan expressed their initiative as president, secretary. and treasurer of the junior class. .Xnticipating the thrill of wearing a '52 class ring, hordes of juniors early in the year rushed to the various jewelry stores to choose their ring. Groups were seen between sessions comparing rings and remarking of their exquisitiveness. .AX deep sense of responsibility was gradually assumed by these active students. The mid- classmen were well represented in all of the extra-curricular activities: Student Council, Echo, Y-Teens. Art Club, Mellon's Minstrel and tlte journalism Group. Their competency was evi- dent in the band, orchestra. and choruses. Senith Reynolds demonstrated her musical talent on the electric organ. Basketball and football, which claimed many of our energetic fellows, helped to strengthen their obligations. Charles Burstin and john Sebest found these two fields bene- ficial to them. Emily Skalicky and Beverly Long, our junior cheerleaders, showed their cheering ability with their witming personalities. Various students relinquished their titne to care for the new library. Both students and teachers agreed that this class of '52 might well be one of the foremost ever to be graduated from Duquesne High School. 42 C7 ff .,,- I I , ,Sf 3 'M is 1 mf.

IJOIASKY R. ll.-XNKS R, KRAYICIICIQ The Sophomore Class After adjusting themselves to their new envir- onment, the first year in high school proved a successful and enjoyable one for tlte sopltotnores. The friendly attitttde of teachers and upper- classmen enabled tlte newcomers to fit into tlte high school routine. The class of '53 consisted of 297 stttdents from Duquesne, Edison and Home- ville -Iunior High Schools. The sophomore class gave enthusiastic support to all school drives, dances and extra curricular activities. Wayne Gedman. -lohn Salopek and Ed Stanley distinguished themselves as members of the first teant of tlte football squad, wltile others were on tlte junior varsity. Many sopho- mores displayed their talent by participating in Mellon's Minstrel and by joining tlte Echo Staff, band, chorus, student couttcil attd .Xrt club. Two organizations. tlte l.atin Club and the Sophomore Girls Chorus, composed entirely of sophomores, maintained tlte high standard set by these in previous years. Front their outstanding performances as sopho- mores it appears that tlte class will contribute much to Duquesne High School in their junior and senior years. 46 5 . 3 Q i 3 ,army ,fr . A. Q. C.

Here comes the time when the students lead and partie- ipate and the teacher takes a back seat to advise only. Wlhat a day holds in the way ol' extra-curricular events no one knows. A Y-Teen Tea, a College Interest speaker, a Freneh Club party, or just a plain Echo meeting. provide an impetus that makes a school day that much better.

Long belore the school term began, council members were soliciting ads lor tlte Football Progrants in order to receive sulficient luttds to lllll their ideas into practice. The three members ol' the council who attended the State Student Council convention held at XX'est Reading. Pennsylvania, brought back the suggestion lor the Stu- dent Council Scholarship. 'l'his award will be presented to an outstanding senior during his or her lirst term in college. The Council created many precedents this year which had excellent resttlts: a suggestion box in the lront hall ol the school lor the benelit ol' the student body: a coke machine for those who eat their lunch in school: monthly assembly progratns consisting ol' prolessional artists were brought to the stage ol' D.l-l.S. As a gilt to the school, the Cottncil purchased sixty beautiful, cardinal choir robes lor use by the a cappella choir as well as a white one lor Miss Xlfitherson. Besides sponsoring many dances. the student cottncil supervised the Coronation Ball. with the crowning ol Mr. and Miss D.H.S.: and the Senior Reception, held May 25, with 'l'ommy Carlyn's orchestra providing 'he music. As the guiding organization ol' all student activities the Council has well accomplished one goal: that ol' making students better citizens. 56 French lub French Club Officers President ..........,,.......

A fluency in French conversation and a knowledge of the culture of the French people and their nation were developed. To enhance interest the various program chairmen produced plays, novelettes, and songs, all written in French, which the students translated and presented with savoir-faire. In the way of social activities a Christmas party in December and a farewell social in April were carried out in the true haute tailIe. First row-H. Ference, A. Martinez, M. Vockley, J. Missaggio, D.

Since the new home economics department empha- sizes practicality as its main objective, better homemakers will leave Duquesne High School. The course, based on instruction that will best prepare the students to meet and cope with all phases ol family life, is modern in every department. The new trend is seen in the changing from cold, clinical aspects to warm friendly atmospheres where the emironment permits much more to be learned. An all-purpose unit including tl1e many qualifica- tions lor homemaking can't be surpassed in up-to-date- ness in its layout and decorations since they include the very best in modern household equipment. This will pro- vide the students an opportunity to work and study under the same conditions they will encounter later in their own homes.

At their meetings they discussed the cultural growth of the German people and the traditions and customs of the Pennsylvania Dutch in America. Besides discus- sions, books and pictures were shown which had been collected by Mr. joseph Stavor while he was stationed in Germany. As an added feature Ray Rex Henry led the group in singing such German songs as Du, du liegst mir ihm Herzen and Guten, abend, gute Nacht with lack Provaznik as accompanist on the piano. A typical German Chrismas party with a program that included an amusing German game, Mein Scluff und Scissors, a delicious lunch, and the singing of the beautiful Stille Nacht really infused the members with the genuine Christmas spirit.

Do you intend to go to college? Questions such as these were asked by the representatives in homeroom dis- cussions held every alternating Friday during the year. The homeroom representatives Illel with Bliss Martha Regester, Vocational Guidance Counselor. in Room I3 each week to prepare the homeroom programs. Your High School Life was the topic most fully discussed by the sophomores, while the outstanding subject among the juniors was IJiscovering Myself, and the seniors, Plan- ning for the Future. To give the students a better perspective of their lifework, ambitions, and to develop ideals in daily relationships may summarize the objectives of the homeroom guidance programs. College Interest Group Freshman again DHS. students are fortunate in having a club which familiarines them with college requirements. Under the guidance of its officers: president, Thomas Dougherty: vice' president, Catherine Haritos: secretary, Jean Kospick: and program chairman. janet Kray- nick, the club held many interesting meetings. The programs included movies, reports, and talks by guest speakers who attempted to solve many of the problems confronting tol- lege-bound students. The most informative program occurred before the Christmas vacation when sixteen Duquesne High gradttates from many colleges reviewed the dilemma of a college freshman. Even though the seniors may not have ac- quired a detailed account of the college in which they intend to matriculate, they never- theless learned enough to make fttrther in- quiry much easier.

Besides learning the fundamental tech- niques in newspaper writing, the students considered the work beneficial for the im- provement of English composition as well as for newspaper appreciation. At the termin- ation of the course they were promoted to the regular Echo Staff if their work was judged s..rist'.tfmry by Miss Meighen. A field trip to the plant of the Duquesne Times gave the prospective journalists first hand information of the functions of a news- paper. joumalism Class First row-C. Viragh, B. Knox, T.

Sptllllsll Clllll - Siesta. Time 'l'raveling to the various Spanish speaking countries via the Spanish Club provided a real- istic baekground for the students of the sen- ior Spanish class. Discussions of legends, eus- tonts, and procedures for gay fiestas enhanced its popularity and furthered an interest in Spanish culture. 'l'he group enjoyed answering roll Call by quoting Spanish proverbs and singing such popular Spanish songs as La Cttcat'aclta, -luanitaf' l,a Paloma, and Clavelitos. lVith Mrs. Mary Britton serving as adviser the club had as their officers: Otto Dessler. chairntang Richard Lonearic, co-ehairtnang janet Kraynick, secretary: and Gordon Brown, ntusic chairman. At the final meeting on May -I, tlte club, Los Amigos Espanoles, entertaitted junior Spanish students as well as sophomores who anticipated studying Spanish during their remaining years at Duquesne High School. Senior Puhlie Address Committee F riclay Night Dances In order that tl1e class of '5l might donate a gift to Duquesne High School in return for all that its mem- bers had received, tl1e seniors decided to purchase a Pub- lic Address System for the enjoyment and use of future pupils. Jack Porvaznik, the president of '51, appointed a committee of eleven students to obtain money for the project with Melvin Ray acting as chairman and Ray Rex Henry and Magdalene Seman as co-chairmen. Although dances, which were held after football and basketball games, were the main source of income, an organ recital, and assembly programs also contributed a large share to the fund. X'Vl1ile much planning was involved, it was rewarding to be able to have a Public Address System installed in the school. On various occasions in recent years, such as Mel- lon's Minstrels, during assembly programs, and at grad- uation exercises, there has been an urgent need for a loud speaking system, and the school was compelled to rent one each time from various sources. Therefore, the class of '5l feels that this contribu- tion will be an important addition to Duquesne High School, and the members are grateful to the many stu- dents who attended S.P.A.C. dances after every game, as well as other programs sponsored by the committee.

Serenaders and instrels Sweetest music this side of heaven Serenaders Opening the broad doors ol' the auditorium on lllednesday evenings at 6:30 o'clock a group of talented musicians who are called the Mellon's Serenaders could be seen rehear- sing either swing or sentimental tunes with Mr. D. Duane Mellon directing them. The group of approximately thirty students from the junior and senior high schools con- cluded their nineteenth year ol' entertaining audiences at banquets, dances and assemblies. Providing the musical background for the Mellon's Minstrels was the most. outstanding performance of the group. Seniors who were graduated this year created vacancies that will not easily be re- placed: namely, Sara Begovich and Lois Bix- ler. the Mello-etts: Corrienne D. Dvorsky, pianist: ,loan Gabrielcik, saxophone: Ray Rex Henry, tuba: Melvin Ray, accordian: Dolores Salopek, clarinet: and l,evon Seropian, violin. However, as in the past, the name olf the Serenaders will be carried forward by in- terested and talented underclassmen. Mcell0n's Minstrels Curtain! Last Call! Curtain! Welcome to the 1951 production of Mellon's Minstrel. The opening number Happy Days Are Here Again Ladies and Gentlemen be seated: Ray Rex Henry. the interlocutor. then introduced the end men and women: namely, -lack Meskus, Robert Reed. john Sachko. Robert Ondecheck, Claudette Kopriver. and Madeline Lemak. The show moved on with many surprises and gags. Such attractions as tap dancing, ballet, song and dance, majorette ensemble and square dancing, helped by the Mellon's Serenaders. kept beating Ollt the rhythm. The revival of the Charleston took a high leap, when the interlocutor and end people teamed up with Cor- rienne Dvorsky to show their ability. The finale came all too soon, the lights were dimmed. the curtains closed and thus ended another Minstrel Show. Mr. Mellon originated the Mellon's Minstrel in 1932. when he started this show business for pleasure and a change from his teaching routine. At first, Mr. Mellon selected students from Duquesne High School only, but a few years later. finding a number of good performers in the lower grades. he selected persons from the var- ious public schools. Mr. Mellon started a Minstrel Orchestra in 1932. Mr. Ray Y. Henry renamed the orchestra The Mellon Serenaders and it has kept the latter name since. The first few years. Mr. Mellon produced the show as a school activity for students of high school only. However. after a few years. it became a benefit for the Duquesne Boy Scouts. as it remains today. The Minstrel has always consisted of the end people, interlocutor. large chorus, Mellon Serenaders, and other special acts. The largest cast was two hundred and seven people in l950. Mr. Mellon selected one end girl in 19112 who was such a hit that he has had two end girls ever since. ' Such specialty acts as square-dancing and Lead The Band Contest have always been popular attractions.

Club because he knows that long alter graduation, memories ol the emotional scenes, the application ol' grease paint and the hil- arious comedies linger on. The task ol' choosing the character parts is not an easy one, but Bliss Nlarion XVhite. the clulfs ad- viser and director, carries out her work with elliciency. Sensing that the Dramatic' Club has the ability ol' presenting any type ol' entertainment now provided by radio and television, their liirst appearance was a quiz show. llillerent holidays throughout the year provided occasions lor their perlormances. Pete the varmint was so realistic that you wondered il' your under- shirt weren't missing when the curtains dropped on the short Cliristmas playlet entitled. Search Me. As the concluding event ol the year, thc Senior Class play, Smilin' Vlilll'Ullgll,H dramatifed the greatest achievement ol the club. All the glamour under the limelight could not take place without tl1e competent members ol' the stage crew who worked tirelessly. building scenery and securing properties. 'l'he Dramatic Cllulm ollers colorful entertainment not merely lor the stttdents but lor the comnumity as well. All ol' the per- lormances scented to have a prolessional touch which was no doubt due to the enthusiasm ol' its members and the adviser. First row-B. Whitney. L. Serupian, G. Brown, R. Reed, J.

The six attractive and viyaeious cheerleaders did an admir- able job in leading the cheers this year. This loyal group prac- ticed daily the seventh period in the gymnasium. revising the old cheers and devising clever new ones, to inspire the greatest re- sponse from the student body for the teams. Traveling with the team to all the games, this years cheerleaders will long be remem' bered for their fine sportsmanship and school spirit. The girls were clad in uniforms ol a red skirt lined with white, and white turtle neck sweaters, with a large D on front. The boys wore red trousers with a white Veneeked sweater, also with a large D and a red tie. Since Lorraine Gurgac, Martha Pollak, Alim and .lay Schultt will he graduated this year, to Emily Skalifky and Beverly Long, together with the sophomores elected at the end ol' the year, will be given the task of leading the teams to victory next year. 89 ,li a s k 0 t h a I I The Varsity Coach llll.I.1.liNlNlliR Handicapped by injuries through the entire season.

Sophomore Basketball YYhiIe winning I4 of 22 games during the season of I95I, the Junior Varsity of Duquesne High School received valuable ex- perience under the expert tutelage of Myles Zeleznick. In ll away games the .I V's had a record of 6 wins, and 5 losses. At home they lost only 3 of I I games. They also broke even in two overtime games, beating Monessen 45-43 for the second time and losing at home to Mclieesport 41-40. In 8 games with Iuture league teatns, the Sophomores won 5. They lost twice to McKeesport and once to Munhall. Certainly, the V's will make a resolution to revenge these losses when it counts during their Senior year. IR.

Other consistent point-getters included: Rinkacs, Hart, Swank, Booth, Bodnar. Myles Zeleznik's Basehallers look hopefully forward to a championship season. Such three lettermen as Pacacha, Porvaz- nik, Mathe, Kovac should give the squad plenty of savvy. Other returnces include NVunder, Duffy, Lengyel, Novak.
