These persons are mainly responsible for work that must be typewritten and mimeographed for their individual teachers. In addition, each one is given a chance to work in the school oFfice. They gain experience for the time when they will be gradu- ated and must earn their own living at a similar iob. 29 Stage C1-ew This stage crew is an efficient and hard working group of boys , so stated Mr. Ramsey, featured in one of our as- semblies. This feeling is shared by the students also. The boys have a great cleal of work in the fall and spring when the Dramatic Club plays are presented. They set up the scenery, work the lights, and complete odd iobs around the stage when needed. Mr. Arthur Salzman and Mr. John Robinson are in charge of these boys. B. Sitko, S. Hornfeck, D. Booth, C.

Mayou Tire Cue of The Sulky girl 1 We Shook the Family Tree, by Hildegarde Dolson, was the 1952 spring production of the Dramatic Club. The comedy centers around a teen-age girl, Hildegarde Dolson, who has a vivid imagination and a knack for dramatizing which gets her into quite a bit of trouble.

Gladiators in Chief One Minute to Midnight Need Any Salt 45 xr Easy Rhythm The Smiling Glads Keep the portions even g'laAAport Kuildfi 14 Sclwol My name is K. Lass Spirit of '53 and now twenty years after graduation, I have decided to return to Glassport for a well earned vacation. As I enter the city I am met by some old acquaint- ances of mine: Gene Urbanski, Chief of Police, Frank Borso, Fire Chief, Buzzy Murphy, Mayor. As we talked about our classmates of '53, I was surprised to find out that Glassport had built a new ultra-modern school. Hearing this I decided to take a look at the new building. I hailed a cab, driven by Joe Kwolek, and proceeded to- ward the school. Enroute Joe explained to me that this taxi and 999 more were owned by those Taxi-Cab Tycoons, Jim Blasco and John Bender. After getting out of the cab I noticed a large statue of a Gladiator. Inscribed on it was Do- nated by Louella Randolph who had become a noted sculptor and painter. At the door of the street I was greeted by Bill Fescemyer, Super- vising Principal. He told me that the school had tour principals. The Senior Principal was Bob Garber, Tony Hilko was the Junior Principal, and Dave Larkin was the Sophomore Principal. The Freshman Principal was Julius Slafka. Since Bill had a board meeting, his Assistant Supervisor, Joe Orlando, offered to show me around the new building. The first room he pointed out was the auditorium, with a seating capacity of 2000. It also had a revolving stage. He told me too, that Elmer Kruzek and Gerald Klein were in charge of stage equipment, general repairs, etc. As we chatted he said that Glassport High had gone a long way since we were in school. He pointed out to me that there were now four Student Coun- selors. Liz Como, Shirley Burkley, Shirley Cross, and Sandra Danko. In the next room I was sur- prised to see John James teaching Math, and he said that the Red Boards were made by Tish Golembiewski and Ted Dworek, School Suppliers. The unique thing about them was their method of self-erasing invented by John Hart. Across the hall Dave Baur was explaining some laws of Physics to his students. And the Music Stopped Tense Moment Think We'll Get Asked As we proceeded down the hall we bumped into a group of English teachers discussing old times. Leading the gab session was Darlene Dint- ino, with Velma Dobos, Jean Delfini, Joyce Sam- ple, Dot Wisniewski, and Louise Dimitroff adding their bits. After exchanging cordialities, we re- sumed our tour. The last room at the end of the hall was the Senior and Junior Gym. There I saw Jack LoBue and Jim Belusar talking. They were two of Glassport High's four Gym teachers. They told me that Lanny Raszewski was head Basketball Coach, and that Bob Stevens was now Manager of the Baseball Team, with Russell Dud- ley mentoring the Football Squad. Teenie Svatz and Eileen Yacavace were the girls' physical edu- cation instructors. Next a fast escalator ride up to the second floor took me to the Nurses' office headed by Myrna Crownover. Her assistants were Jean Mackowick, Verda Hart, Darlene McNelis and Regina Wible. The next room was occupied by Jane Repine, Philatelist fstamp collectori. She told me that Alice Conlon was now teaching First Aid to the Freshman Class. As we continued, I noticed a classroom door opened. In front of a group of enthusiastic students was Joan Raszew- ski saying, Parlez-vous Francais? And across the hall was Jean DelFiugo giving a lecture in Italian Grammar. I asked Jean if any other lan- guages were taught here now, and she told me that Mary Ann Timko was teaching Spanish and that llana Mayou was teaching Elementary Ger- man. She also told me that the new Latin teach- er was Lucille Gorman. Taking an elevator up to the third floor, we saw an altogether modern shop with George Wasil in charge of saws, Art Rattani, lathes, Primo Mollica, dies. There I met the head shop teacher, Louie Angelo. As we were looking around, I noticed a clock on the wall. The advertisement around it read, Kemple and Kushner Jewelry Stores. It also reminded me that it was time for lunch. Joe suggested we eat in one of the school's three cafe- terias. So we took the service elevator up to the fourth floor. Here I saw Eleanor Ogurchak, Pat Johnson, Mary Rita Gallagher, Emily Dworek, and Norma DiGiorgio all busily serving hot meals to the stu- dents. We took a table near the window so we could benefit by the cool breeze coming in on that hot day. Dot Pearson took our order, and she advised us to take Chef Bob Pasinsky's special, Coffee with a Kick. After Mary Lou Simko brought us our food, we were ioined by some commercial teachers, Jennie Book, Margaret Przywarty, Mary Ann Mihoces, Lois Weber and Charlotte Gill. Jennie told me that the new building was designed by the K-Gri-Derem Engineering Com- pany, of John Kaye, Tom Gribschaw, and Ken Deremer. Mary Ann said that all the bricks used were made from the Montanti and LaFolIette Mill-Works. As I remarked about the beautiful pastel finish on the walls, Margie told me that Arthur and Bob Milligan had done all the plastering work in the school. To my surprise Lois told me that Don Tacik and John Duda were now teaching Public Speak- ing and Pat Ejchost and Irene Zoller were both teaching P.O.D., their favorite school subject. On my way out I noticed that the cashiers were Arliss Case and Laurel Beckowitz. Joe then told me I was in for a treat. We took the escalator clown to the subterranean floor. I was astonished to see three separate swimming pools. There were Connie Sydeski, Marie Bartko, and Jean Carlson giving instructions to the new stu- dents, and Joe said that Jim Kompas was head of the boys' Aquatic Instruction. We walked up stairs and I shook hands with Joe, promised to return for another visit, and left the building amazed and bewildered. I hailed a taxi, and said, Smith's Rest Re- sort , and the driver whom I recognized as Bill Trumpe, assured me that I had chosen a good place for a vacation, and that I would get a peaceful, refreshing rest.

Two of these losses were to Class Double A opponents, namely McKeesport and Clairton. Although their record was not very impressive, the Glads showed the traditional spirit and fine sportsmanship that our champion teams in the past have shown.

GLASSPORT 0 CLAIRTON 13 For three quarters Glassport and Clairton fought on even terms. In the fourth quarter Clairton broke the ice and scored two touchdowns. lt was the second loss in a row to Class AA opponents.

GLASSPORT 0 WILMERDING 26 Wilmerding Wildcats were too much for an outclassed Gladiator team. Glassport threatened seriously late in the final period on a 70-yard march before losing the ball on downs on the 6-yard stripe. GLASSPORT I3 ELIZABETH 20 This game marked the fourth defeat of the year for the Glads.

Glassport battled valiantly W. Homfeck' Junior High Coach- against a superior foe and reached paydirt twice with Bob Pcisinski and Gene Urbanski scoring in the second and third quarters. Que:-ale We Mal Our Gladiator Reserves this year showed a record of two ties and two heartbreaking losses. Their deadlock games occurred with Port Vue and Baldwin while their losses were to McKeesport and Port Vue. Both defeats were by close margins. For as the record shows, our Glads fought to the end and their team spirit never ceased. A strong reserve team is necessary for a strong varsity and we believe we have that.

The little Gladiators, under Coach Hornfeck, did not have a very impressive season, but they showed a lot of the fight that is traditional among Glassport High teams. The team lost to Shaw Avenue, George Washington, Braddock, Homestead, and Munhall. The little Glads deserve cu lot of credit for their spunk and sportzmanship. And as time goes on many pictured here will undoubtedly be members of a championship varsity. 54 .1 l, . -be LJ :ef-'E KaAleet6all gffkx fe A+., The Gladiators, coached by Mr. William Hornteck, had the best won and lost record ever acquired by a Glassport High School team. Their record of 20 wins and 2 losses at the end of the regular season was good enough to get them a berth in the W. P. l.A. L. tournaments. Because of an enrollment of over 500, the Glads were forced to compete in the Class A Tournament. ROBERT SMITH Guard 5' 8 , Smitty walked oft with individual scoring honors this year, and also earned his second letter in as many years, playing tor the Glads. Bob was one of the key playmakers on the team, and also one of the best guards to ever come out ot Glassport High School. His best game was against Scott when he tallied T9 points. LEO RAZEWSKI Guard 5' 3 Lanny earned his seccnd letter and had the hcnor of tallying the most points tor an individual game this season, twenty-three points against East McKeesport. He was one of the best passers in the district, also a fine playmaker and ex- pert at set shots. With the end of basketball season he gained his second co-captaincy honor. Thus becoming one ot the few boys to be elected co-captain of both football and basketball. 55 JOHN KAYE Center 6'2 Johnny Rabbits Kaye earned his second letter this year, and again proved his all-round basketball ability. Johnny was held bark by a bad leg which kept him out of a lot of the ex- citement. His best game was at East McKeesport, when he scored twenty points. .lohnny always had a lot of spirit which his team mates acknowledged by electing him co-captain. ROBERT STEVENS Forward 6'1 Bob played his third year for the Gladiators and earned his second letter. Bob's best game of the season was against Pitcairn when he scored twenty-two markers. Although Bob was hampered through the season by a bad leg, he still turned in a creditable year. KENNETH DEREMER, Manager Kenny kept our boys' spirits up by giving them the best of all-around care. He was the official score keeper at each game, and this season he will earn a well-deserved letter. H. Bonadio, K. Deremer, A. Fratturoli, R.
