ARGYLE WAGNER YOST This year, we, the class of 43 , dedicate our yearbook to Mr. Argyle Yost, teacher at Farmington High School and advisor of our class. Mr. Yost has taught at his Alma Mater fwhich soon will be oursj for thirteen years. He graduated from Farinington High School in 1926, received his A.B. degree at Fairmont State Teachers' College at Fairmont, in 1930 and did graduate study at West Virginia University, Morgantown. He teaches Mathematics and Physical Sciences, including a course in Aeronautics for boys who expect to enter the Air Corps. Mr. Yost has been one of the most faithful teachers at Farmington High School under all conditions. We thank you, Mr. Yost, for being our guiding light through both the pleasures and the difiiculties of the 'past two years. Page four AND -l TO THOSE AWAY 1ST LT. CORNELIUS ALLEN JENKINS fMissing in action over Germanyj Neil, a graduate of Farmington High School in the class of 1937, enlisted in the Army Air Corps in June, 1941. For sev- eral months he has been Flight Commander with our forces in England. He was recently decorated for exceptionally mer- itorious achievement. This year we dedicate our yearbook to The khaki brown and the navy blue. The youth that now carries the sword, And protects the rights of the Lord. These are men, not boys, who fight to atone, They are aged in mind, if not in bone. You shall hear of their valorous acts afar, And America's name they will never mar. We give this book to the men so brave, And swear devoutly to be their slave. -Wendell Lough Page five WHOSE SERVICES WE APPRECIATE BEYOND x7 'QI 111 m ir- I 1 ' - 1' 4, 'if ' 1 ,WRX ldzf mf' ju A 5 ' 5 nfl , If fm, ' I- bfi X.

To lessen the monotony of these Weary hours, this same crew has sponsored many extra-curricular activities which have provedto be one of the bright spots of our school days. They have tuned the motors and started the ship, now it is up to us whether we navigate our fleet of ships past air pockets, tricky squalls, and up into the stratosphere, then down for a three- point landing. To them We Wish to extend our sincerest thanks and appreciation for their untiring efforts in helping us to achieve our aims. Page 'rrme THE CAPTAIN JOSEPH C. COTREL I A.B.g A.M., W.V.U.

There are many tempta- tions Which serve as stumbling-blocks to those who yield but for those who reach the top, there will be fond memories of these Weary hours which pre- pared them for victory.

J JUNIOR INVASION OF THE WILDERNESS We Can Because, We Think We Can, has proven successful for the Junior Class of 1943. After camping for three months the class adventurers continued their journey. They were now no longer Sophomores but full- pledged Juniors. They found the trail easier for they were more experienced in climbing the rugged trail of education. After the journey was started the group gathered in a council meeting to choose some scout leaders. The following were chosen: Mary Catherine Bock, as class Presidentg Sidney Campagna, as Vice-President, Harry Gene Alasky, Secretary and Treasurer. As class advisor, we honored Mrs. Mary Lee Zinn. The trail became rugged for some of our exploring party and they turned aside, most of whom saw the beckoning of the light of opportunity and success. Journeying on we came to a clearing where we stopped and engaged in sports. We lacked a few points of defeating our opponents in the finals fthe class basketball tournamentj. The highlight of this year is an outstanding prom in honor of the Seniors of our school. We are looking forward to a continuation of our journey. We hope to carry out our motto, and have as many followers as we have had in former years. - JUNIORS Page twenty-two JUNIORS T' ll 'J 6?-I 'Y I VJ I , ff? 5' l Q I a - , - .2 -? -.4 f 'P an 2 i,wgn1P 1 ,Eg A' 4 , fr , .Q 'ff' ff v .

We can look back- in later years-and remember many familiar incidents which took place While We Worked together in silent harmony. If We stumbled in making decisions, a member of the crew always came to our rescue and started us on our way again. For these extra-curricular activities, we Wish future success, and to the members of the crew who made them possible, we say Thanks a Million.

The Senior High group is composed of members from the Tenth, Eleventh and Twelfth grades while Junior High members are from the Seventh, Eighth and Ninth grades. Senior High oflicers for this year are: President, Frances Manching Vice- President, Lena Paskog Secretary, Anna Lou Griffith, news reporter, Delores Bock, and advisor, Miss Mary Manley, a present member of the faculty.

Page thirty-fovm' TI-IESPIANS S 47- Z' srl 'S' Q9 -afr- Aln. Q Forward March! rings in the ears of every member of troupe No. 435 of the National Thespian Society. Each year is a bigger and better one for the dramatic honor students of our school. Twenty-three new members have been admitted during the past year and each one is doing his part to make troupe 435 another honorary troupe for this year. Due to the War and lack of transportation facilities, no annual play con- test was held this year. However, interest still runs high and students still answer the call to colors for National Thespian. As a social function, the active members entertained the new members this year with a spaghetti feed followed by a formal initiation which was colorful and impressive. In the annual operetta, familiar faces of Thespian members were seen. The Senior play, Ever Since Eve , was a successful accomplishment of many active troupe members with supporting actors and actresses. The Junior play, Best Foot Forward , should procure many more fine Thespians. A POEM FOR EVERY THESPIAN MEMBER OF TROUPE 435 TI-IESPIANS T is for thoughtful -every Thespian must be, H is for happy -a joy just to see. E is for earnest -there's no better trait, S for sincerity -to always be straight . P stands for poise -which all actors need, I stands for instinct -it's really the seed. A stands for ability -a must-don't you know, N is nobility -inlfriend or in foe. Dear to our hearts is troupe 435, We work tooth and nail to keep it alive. It's fun and it's jolly and an honor too, We hope that in Thespian we'll soon find you. Page thu ty jwe LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club is an active group of approximately thirty high school boys and girls, under the supervision of Mrs. Mary Lee Zinn, who have under- taken the task of making our library a more attractive and useful place for the students to study. They have put new tops on the tables and painted them. New drapes for the windows have improved their appearance and produced a more home-like atmosphere. About 130 new books and two new sets of Encyclopedias have been added this year. The club members are: Jack Beuglass, Mary Catherine Bock, Virginia Conaway, Phyllis Crislip, Dan Dragoo, Donald Haley, Regis Haley, Steve Haller, Betty Hawkinberry, Lucille Hawley, Jacqueline Hess, Ralph Hess, Alberta King, Bertha Kochis, Jean Lazorick, Susan Lazorick, Louise Losh, Wendell Lough, Madaline Morris, Norma Jean Morris, Max Murray, Homer Orr, Raymond Orr, Rose Pollack, Blanche Pyles, Charles Rexrode and Wil- liam Zahara. The Press Club was organized in 1931 for the purpose of publishing a school paper, The Lincolneer . Since then the club has been one of the most active groups in school. They maintain a Press Room where much of the work on the school paper is done. Miss Robinson, the first advisor, still holds that position. At the beginning of the school term, officers were selected for this year. They are as follows: President, William Zaharag Vice-President, Joe Tatar 3 Secretary, Wendell Lough, and Treasurer, Max Murray. Other members of the club include Rose Manchin, Frances Manchin, Doris Duncil, Martha Weaver, Blanche Pyles, Mary Pantalone, Mary Catherine Bock, Mildred Naumik, Irene Vargo, Julia Erdeljac, Ralph Hess, Raymond Orr, Steve Haller, Irene Hartzel, Wade Hartzel, Donna Lane Ball, Elvira Martin, Phyllis Crislip, Juanita Maxwell, Homer Orr and Dolores Bock.

The chief aim of the Girls' Athletic Association is to promote better sports- manship among the students. The Girls' Athletic Association has been active at Farmington High for many years. At present, Miss Mary Manley, our physical education teacher, is the advisor. This year 15 new members were taken into the club. The oflicers chosen were: President, Christine Pitekg Vice-President, Susan Lazorickg and Sec- retary and Treasurer, Frances Manchin. The G. A. A. presents a May Festival practically every year. The 1942 Festival was very successful. A queen was crowned and several dance num- bers were presented by the princesses. Helen Guss, class of '42, was the queen. Her maids of honor were Martha Ice of '42 and Victoria Corpiel of '44. The princesses were: Juanita Price, Katherine Davis, Ruth Davis, Velma Mehosky, Susan Lazorick, Rose Pollack, Gizella Nagy, Pauline Muzichuck, Victoria Price, and Irene Hartzel. Carol Jean Yost and Flora Rose Yost were the train bearers. Crown bearers were Robert Watkins and Millard Lee Beuglass. This year the G. A. A. and Varsity Club presented a tournament of basket- ball between grades, the winners being the Sophomore Girls and the Fresh- man Boys. LETTERMEINVS CLUB This group, sometimes called the Varsity, is made up of boys who have played in a sufficient number of games of one or more sports to earn a school letter. Some of them have played in both football and basketball for as many as four years. The leader of the group is Coach Ryan. Joseph Tatar, a senior, is their president and principal student leader. Page thu Ly mote BAND Farmington High School Band bids fair to become very popular with the student body of Farmington High School. Since the new director, Mr. John R. Swales, came to take charge of the band, some changes have been made. The band now consists of 37 members, a drum major and- eight twirlers. A new field drum section has been added to the band, consisting of three drummers, two new clarinet members and a new baritone player. New drums have been purchased and also a new baritone. The band played for basketball games and football games and was heard at its annual concert on April 16. Many new marches were introduced at those times. Officers for the band are: President, Ray Orrg Vice-President, George Ed Berryg Secretary-Treasurer, Dolores Bockg and Historian, Ralph Hess.

Q Sp 'Ll if . .,,V TO WI N - WORK No other phase of our school life could better show the necessity of Work- ing together than our athletics. The Farmers fought hard to Win the many games they took part in but took the defeats with a cheerful smile. The players will be the men of the future and if they cooperate as cheerfully then as they have during games, the goal will soon be theirs. To refresh our memories in later years, we have pictured the boys as they now appear during their games. Page forty-one FOOTBALL The Farmington Farmers had a very successful season this year, ty- ing for second place honors in the county. Coach Ryan with only four regulars from last year's squad, de- veloped a team which rated with the best in the county. All of the boys played clean and fair football and by defeating Moundsville, one of the best teams in the state, scored a major up-set. They closed their sea- son by upsetting the undefeated Rivesville Rams 2-6. Two of the Ryanmen made the all-county team, Clinton Russell CSeniorJ for his sec- ond successive year and Frank Grindo fJuniorJ. Nicky Fonte, Jun- ior Bowers and John Levitsky re- ceived honorable mention. Captain CLINTON RUSSELL, End Russell will be one of the greatest losses for the Ryanmen. As a junior he was one of the best ends in the county and in his senior year he proved to be the same, making the all-county team both years. I nrfe forty-two FRANK GRINDO, Halfback Frank, a Junior, although not graduating will be another great loss to the team since he enlisted in the Army this year. He played very good defensive and oiensive ball. He was a triple threat backfieldman and made the all-county team this season. N ICKY FONTE, Tackle As a junior, Nicky played quar- terback, but this year he was moved to a tackle position and played good ball in both positions. His best game of the season was against Monon- gah and this year he received honor- able mention on the all-county team. JUNIOR BOWERS, Guard Tuiy, a letterman for four years, will be another loss via graduation. Although injuries held him back somewhat, he played' very good ball while he was in their fighting and received honorable mention on the all-county team for the past two years. ' --1 . 'Q - .

An injury prevented his seeing much action last year, but he made up for it by playing very good offensive and de- fensive ball this year and also by being the leading scorer of the team for this season. JOHN LEVITSKY, Halfback John, a Sophomore, played his first year as a regular. He played very good offensively and defensive- ly. He was a hard driver and broke through for several long runs. He received honorable mention on the all-county team and much more is expected of him next year. STEVE KORSH, Center Steve, a Sophomore, played his first year as a regular and showed us that a lot more can be expected of him in the future. cg' - . . ,,,. si Page forty-four CLARENCE RYAN Coach Cassy Ryan start- ed his athletic career as a four letterman at Mannington High School. He played outstanding football at W. V. U., then ex- perienced two years of profes- sional football with the Buf- falo, New York, team. Since coming to Farming- ton High School in the fall of 1930, Coach Ryan, a very pop- ular member of the faculty, has produced several County Championship teams, and placed several boys on the All- State Team. This year he has undertaken an additional task of training boys in the Victory Corps. BOB HAWKIN BERRY, Fullback Bob, a scrapping little player, who will be lost this year due to gradua- tion, played his first year as a regu- lar on the squad. He put on a splen- did performance in every game. JACK COTREL, Halfback Jack, a Senior, although not a regular on the team, saw lots of action this year and received his letter. DONALD HALEY, Quarterback Don, a Senior, was a reserve back and saw some action this year and also received his letter. WENDELL LOUGH, Halfback Wendell, also a reserve back, saw a little action and received his let- ter. ROBERT PYLES, Fullback Bob, also a reserve back saw some action and received his letter this year. . EARNEST BAKER, Guard Earney, a Junior, played a regu- lar guard on the varsity squad and much more is expected of him next year. His best game of the year was against Fairview. At that time he intercepted a pass and ran 60 yards for a touchdown. RAYMOND ORR, Tackle Ray, who will be a loss to the team via graduation, played his first year as a regular. He played his po- sition exceptionally well and will be hard to replace. His best game this season was against West Fairmont. JOHN GUSS, End Johnny, a promising young Soph- omore, has played end' regularly for years. He played good oiensive and defensive ball all along. His best game of the year was against Moundsville. Much more is expect- ed of him during the next two years. Page fm ty fwe BASKETBALL The Ryanmen had a fair season this year but they met tough oppo- sition all along, winning nine, losing nine. Of the first five players this year, only one will be back for next year. The others will be lost due to graduation. In the first game of the county tournament they were elim- inated by East Fairmont. We, the Seniors of 43 extend our best wishes to the teams in the years to come and hope that Farm- ington High will sponsor many championship teams in the near fu- ture. ANTHONY ARCURE, Forward Anthony will be leaving us this year after being a regular on the team for the past two years. He plays exceptionally good iioor games and is a good passer. He has set up many shots for the other players. His scoring for this year is 134 points. Page forty-six MIKE SOKOLOSKY, Forward Mike will also leave this year, after playing a regular position for two years. He is a good shot and a very fast ball-handler. His scoring for this year is 169 points. HARRY GENE ALASKY, Center Harry, the only junior on the team, has been a regular for two years. Due to an injury he didn't see much action last season but coming back this year with his high reach and shooting ability from be- low the basket, he is the high-point man of the team this year. His scor- ing is 218 points. JOSEPH TATAR, Guard Joe will also leave the team this year after playing as a regular on the team for two years. With his defensive playing he has held down the county's top scorer. With his shooting ability from mid-court, he has kept the Farmers in many games. His scoring for this season is 119 points.

He was a good de- fensive player and scored 1?'points. DOMINIC PETRUCCI, Guard Dominic, also a senior and a reg- ular from last year, didn't see much action until late in the season. At that time he took over the guard position left vacant by Clinton Rus- sell. He played good ball, both of- fensively and defensively and had a score of 17 points. JAMES LOUGH, Forward James, a senior who has seen considerable action as a reserve, always played good ball when he was needed most. He has scored 26 points this season. Page forty-eight JACK TALKINGTON, Guard Jack, a sophomore, has also seen considerable action as a reserve and is a reliable man who plays his posi- tion well. Much more is expected of him next year. His scoring for this year was 14 points. BOB BUTCHER, Center Bob, a senior, who has served his first year for the team as a reserve, played very well whenever he was needed and scored 21 points for this season. CHARLES REXRODE, Forward Charles, a sophomore, has not seen much action this year but he is expected to before long. He is snappy and is a good passer. Much more is expected for him in the near future along the basketball line. ATHLETIC CALENDAR FOOTBALL We They Away-Sept. East Fairmont Cnight gamej ....... ....... 0 7 Away-Sept.
