Grantsville High School - Arch Yearbook (Grantsville, MD)

Text from Pages 1 - 66 of the 1949 volume:

Sf DEDICATION DEDICATION Fully aware that we are deeply indebted to a host of good people who have given their best to making our graduation possible, we are faced with the task of selecting one who could best symbolize the combined efforts of all those people. We believe that in selecting Mr. C. O. Bender, we have found a man who can best reflect the ambitions and desires of all of those vitally concerned with the education of youth. In dedicating our yearbook to him, we are in a sense dedicating it to our parents and patrons whose efforts are exemplified in him. In Mr. C, O. Bender as an individual, we recognize a man of great personal worth. In him, we catch a vision of the most wholesome things that life can offer, and for his outstanding effort and achievement, we are truly grateful. To Mr. Bender, as a person of high ideals, untiring effort, and one whom we can Call our friend, we proudly dedicate the 1949 ARCH. x SS we a te Be Re Buse ah Guess “— ieee Se ee We: See ee = Pi) ARE aR Melee Re ee Oe al Se eS PE tated i ST om — FACULTY Marshall |G.

Sponsors INTRODUCTION We, the Senior Class of the school year 1948, 1949, are proud to present THE ARCH, the first yearbook in the history of G. H. S. We hope that the first issue which we are presenting here will provide you with pleasant moments as the school events are called into memory. As to the name, we in Grantsville who are in a locality rich in historical tra- dition, felt that a name which reflected our historical background would be suitable. The Castleman River Bridge, 1 mile east of Grantsville, was built in 1805, and is one of the oldest stone arch highway bridges in the United States. We hope that the name, THE ARCH, is reminiscent of days gone by and that the pioneer spirit which permeated our pioneer forefathers who blazed the trail to new horizons, so that we, their posterity, may be alert to new opportunities and eager always to achieve new ideals. May we be inspired by their spirit of adventure and progress and leave be- hind us milestones indicating that their hopes for us have not been in vain. HISTORY OF GRANTSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL Had you passed through Grantsville in the year, 1838, you would have seen two hotels under construction, one of which still stands--the Casselman Hotel. The other — was built opposite on the ground which is now the school lot. It was the latter hotel which first served as a school house for the town of Grantsville. In 1859, Ross R. Sanner opened school in one of the hotel rooms. In 1872, when this section was separated from Allegany County and created Garrett County, the old hotel was torn down; and in 1873, the same bricks and much of the lumber in the old hotel were used in the construction of a school house. At that time, schools had not been graded nor had high schools been heard of. In 1922, our school was recognized as a state accredited high school. Grantsville High School, as it is today, stands on the original site of the first grade school. This school was a two-story structure built about 1867 and employed 4 teachers. The primary grades, known as our present elementary grades, were on the first floor under the supervision of two teachers. The advanced grades, which later developed into our high school, were on the second floor. The first graduating class was the class of 1923 consisting of 9 pupils, all of whom were of Grantsville or vicinity, while the present graduating class will be a class of forty-eight. In 1930, free transportation was granted to the high school students for the first time. At the present time, there are eleven busses transporting students to and from school. In 1924, our school employed four high school teachers, Since that time, the number has increased to eleven. The subjects offered high school students before 1925 were principally Mathe- matics, History, English, Latin, and Science. In 1925, Agriculture and Home Economics were introduced, and French, for academic students in 1929. During the past years, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, General Science, Farm Shop, Civics, Core 8, 9, and 10, Psychology, Physical Education, Music, Art, Band, Driver Education, General Mathe- matics, Plane Geometry, Algebra, Industrial Arts, and Problems of Democracy have been added to the curriculum. In 1929, a classroom was set apart to be used as our first school library, which consisted of only a few books; but it now includes approximately 2600 volumes. The principals of the high school since 1923 have been: W. F. MacDonald, 1923- 1925; Ralph Webster, 1925-1927; J. Edwane Ford, 1927-1929; W. Day Mullinix, 1929- 1935; Frank J. Getty, 1935-1946; Marshall G. Brown, 1946-. GRANTSVILLE P. T. A. During the school year of 1947-1948, Grantsville School had a Parent-Teacher Association for the first time in several years. During the last part of the school year, 1946-1947, a Band Boosters’ Club was organized which met monthly. This organization provided moral and material support to the school band and provided a nucleus around which the P. T. A. was organized. The Band Boosters’ Club and the P. T. A. now meet as a combined organization every other month. The first meeting was held on October 11, 1947. The P. T. A. was then organized and the following officers were elected: President, Mr. C. O. Bender; Vice-President, Mrs. Harry Yommer; and Secretary, Mrs. Roy Mickey. The following officers were elected for the school year, 1948, 1949; President, Mr. Harold Miller; Vice-President, Mr. William Biddington; and Secretary, Mrs. Roy Mickey. The enthusiasm with which the community responded to the newly organized P. T. A., as manifested by the attendance of patrons from all sections of the school com- munity, exceeded the fondest expectations of all concerned. The P. T. A. has beena most excellent device by which the parents could learn about their school, and alsoa medium by which the school could be interpreted to the parents. We are looking forward to a continuance of the excellent work that has been so well begun. HELEN ORENDORF Home Economics I, II Dramatics Club III, IV y Mathematics Club II - PAUL McKENZIE F.

As enthusiastic Freshmen, we elected Robert Buckel as President of Section A under the guidance of Mr. Replogle and Alda Minnick as President of Section B under the guidance of Miss Purcell. Our one big social event of the year was the Freshman Party. We felt more a part of Grantsville High when we became Sophomores, because we were better acquainted with the functions of the school. We were again divided into two sections. Jean Yommer was the President of Section A and Logan Wengerd was the President of Section B. Our Advisers, Miss Borror and Mr. Grimm guided us ably through our second year. Then, upon attaining Junior standing, new problems and responsibilities faced us. Delford Crowe was elected President, and Miss Emma Caulk was Adviser of the class. We gave the big event of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom, and were, perhaps, for the first time made aware that our days at G. H. S. were numbered. Upon becoming Seniors, we were again divided into groups. The Senior Vocational Home Economics girls were put in Room 14 under the guidance of Miss Eloise Borror, and the Senior Vocational Agriculture boys and Senior Academic girls were put in Room 15 under the guidance of Miss Kathryn Speicher. Delford Crowe was again elected as our President. We had the privilege of picking the name of the yearbook, announcements, and name cards. As a class, we look forward eagerly, yet reluctantly, to our parting activities. We shall carry with us memories of friendships, good times, classes, tea- chers, perhaps a little disappointment and sorrow somewhat jumbled, but ever-to-be re- membered mosaic of Our Grantsville High School. ’ Fe LOOSE LEAVES FROM THE DIARY OF THE CLASS OF FORTY-NINE September 4, 1945 Dear Diary: Today, sixty-three Freshmen assembled in the auditorium to begin the exciting life of honest-to-goodness high school students at last. Already, they are calling us the verdant Freshmen. October 8, 1945 Dear Diary: This has been a very exciting day. We poor Freshie Home Economics girls were initiated into the ‘‘Future Homemakers of America Club’’. Such silly re- quirements they gave us: ! We had to carry dolls, wear our clothes backwards, carry our books in buckets, bow to Seniors, and many other things that are crazy but lots of fun anyway. January 10, 1946 Dear Diary: Our Freshman Party was held in the gym today. We played games under the guidance of Mr. Replogle and Miss Purcell, and had refreshments of ice cream, cookies and chocolate milk. June 8, 1946 Dear Diary: Today marked the end of our Freshman year in Grantsville High School. Don't you think the greenness is fading ? September 3, 1946 Dear Diary: Again we entered the halls of learning at G. H. S. We were sorry to learn that our principal, Mr. Getty, had gone from our midst, but we have the feeling that Mr. Brown will do a good job. Among the other unfamiliar faces, we find those of Thelma Lowry, Edda Runze, and Joe Myers. We know that they will become loyal cit- izens of Grantsville High School. May 17, 1947 Dear Diary: The Minstrel Show went off with a ‘‘bang’’ tonight. Rumor has it that it was one of the best amateur shows ever given in Grantsville High School. June 6, 1947 Dear Diary: The Seniors of °47 graduated tonight in the school auditorium. Fare- well, Seniors of °47. September 2, 1947 Dear Diary: ‘‘Not at the top but still climbing. Fifty-three Juniors. Our Class Adviser is Miss Caulk. February 12, 1948 Dear Diary: Tonight the F. H. A. and F. F. A. held a Valentine Party in the school gymnasium, Nearly everyone was there and we had a very good time. May 15, 1948 Dear Diary: This has been a busy week for us all. Our Mother- Daughter Banquet was held last Thursday (May 6), and the F. F. A. Banquet, last evening (May 13) in the school auditorium. Juniors and Seniors were honored guests 18 May 19, 1948 Dear Diary: This was a night to remember. The Junior-Senior Prom was held in the gym which was decorated in aqua and silver, the Senior Class colors. Raising the money and arranging for entertainment, decorations and other things were big pro- blems for us, but we all agree that it was well worth it. May 26, 1948 Dear Diary: The operetta, ‘Tulip Time’’, which the music department has been working on was a very successful performance of which we are proud. June 10, 1948 Dear Diary: Here we are on the night of our annual Commencement. How solumn the Seniors looked as they marched in, double file, to receive their diplomas. September 8, 1948 Dear Diary: School began today as the Class of '49 sauntered proudly into the halls of G. H. S. with over-sized heads. Our Class Adviser is Miss Speicher and our Class President is Delford Crowe. Two new members have been added to the Faculty-- Miss Morford and Mr. Lantz. October 11, 1948 Dear Diary: The Grantsville High School Music Department was proudly re- presented at the Maryland All-State Chorus by Phyllis Resh and Jean Yommer, also by Margie Kinsinger and Richard Bender who participated in the All-State Band held at Baltimore last week. _ November 9, 1948 Dear Diary: Seniors have been trying, under the supervision of Mr. Grimm, to become good drivers of the dual-control car which was donated for our use by the Casselman Motor Company. How thrilling it is to really drive with all confidence (if not in ourselves, at least in our instructor, who is ready to correct our mistakes). February 7, 1949 Dear Diary: The sun is shining brightly today, and a warm breeze is blowing out- side. Second semester is flying by, and already, the students are counting the weeks until school is out. Especially, the Seniors are looking forward to graduation, but before Commencement comes the Variety Show’’ to be given by the Music Department, the Prom, and other activities that go to make up high school life. June 9, 1949 Dear Diary: Today is the day we have waited for--Graduation. Forty-eight Seniors will receive diplomas tonight. Graduation will take place in the school auditor- ium. To the school, we bid a lamented ‘‘goodbye’’ and to our teachers, a hearty thanks’’. 19 CLASS PROPHECY Classmates, friends so dear; since the day we were elected prophets of the Class of 1949, we have spent many eager, weary, fruitless hours in searching for some inkling of what is to be, some power to prophesy the future of our classmates. How often we have crept from our bed at midnight and strolled through the dark streets of Granstville, hoping against hope that a bird of wisdom might utter s0me word of prophecy. All of this searching, however, was in vain, and we find ourselves tonight ap- pearing before you unprepared. As a last resort, we rushed to the Holmes and Wallace Studio, and lo? we found a cracked looking glass which gave us a glimpse into the future. What is this we see? An operating room, heavy with anesthetic! The doctors and nurses wait in silence. The suspense is appalling. The head nurse opens a door noiselessly, nods to someone outside and is announcing in a low whisper, ‘‘The patient will live.’ We recognize our old classmates, Mary Jane Emory as the great surgeon and another classmate, Nancy Campbell. Next, the cheery atmosphere of a little cottage in the country. We see six chil- dren gathered round their mother. And were we surprised: An old friend, Marilyn Jones. And who is the man coming down the walk? Why, it’s Delford Crowe’ But the scene has changed to a boxing ring in Baltimore. There is the famous middleweight champion, Robert Colgan, our old pal. Look: What comes next? We see a teacher before a group of high school students who are all sitting before typewriters trying to hit the right keys with the right fingers. As the teacher goes among the students telling them what to do,,we recognize her as Juanita Arbogast. The next picture that appears before us is a law office. There, a divorce case is brought before the judge. With the deftness the judge uses in the case, we know he is the one and only Donald Glotfelty. What is this we see? A wide expanse of waters, whose turbulent waves rise and fall with a wild and furious roar! What bark glides so fearlessly o’er the sea? It nears? Who can be the pilot who successfully guides the ship over these stormy billows? I see him at the helm. Can it be--it is--Harry Durst’ Gone so suddenly? A busy street, full of honking cars and people. Look, there goes a taxi: And on its side is painted, ‘‘Pete and Charley’s Cab Service.’ The names sound familiar, but, of course, it couldn't be. But, look’? The driver is Anthony Drees and his companion is Charles Caton. Intense heat, but a nice breeze as we drive along. We see acres of flowers and ferns. How lovely! This turn in the drive reveals the home of the florist, a white marble masion, a perfect setting for the flowers. We are fortunate, for the hostess is just saying a pleasant good-bye to some of her friends. Her golden hair, her blue eyes show her to be the flower of flowers, Violet Durr. 20 What now? A mountain lake, clear as crystal, blue as sapphire, with not the slightest ripple, reflecting a perfect picture of the peaks tinged with gold as the sun sinks. On the shore, half-hidden by wild ferns, is an artist with his palette and easel, painting the loveliness of nature. The light fades and he turns to go. Can we believe our eyes? Our class artist, Paul McKenzie: We now See a farm, acres and acres of potatoes, and look! The farmer is Kenneth Beachy. And we all know who the woman in the yard is. It’s Violet Wagner? On the face of the mirror, an army camp appears. We see a General witha stern face training his soldiers. His red hair glinting in the sun tells us at a glance-- it is Charles Turner: The army camp fades and is soon replaced by an entrance to a coal mine. A well-dressed man is entering it. As he turns to speak to one of his employers, we recognize him as John Keister. What now? A farm full of gobbling turkeys. Who is the man trying to catch one of them for his Thanksgiving dinner? At the way he flits around, we know him to be one of our classmates of 1949, James Glotfelty. Next, the cool green shadows of trees in a country land. We wonder who the man is following his herd of cattle. He grins as he waves to a passing friend. We know at a glance that those sparkling teeth belong to Lorraine Bittinger. As we look on the city of Frostburg, we see a young man walking down the street. Since he is chasing every skirt in sight, we know him to be John McKenzie. Over ina corner of the mirror, we see a certain business office--better known as the Grantsville Poultry Corporation. We peep through a window and see the secretary sitting on the boss’ knee. One g uess tells us it is Neil Yommer, who is now president of the establishment, and guess what: Phyllis Resh is the very alert and charming sec- retary. We gaze into the mirror as a Fifth Avenue shop appears. The designer starts draping and pinning cloth on the models. The famed person turns and smiles as she finishes her creation. We recognize our old classmate, Betty Arbogast. We now see the National Hotel where Thelma Lowry is sitting at the desk in the lobby. She is still waiting patiently for Fay Miller to ‘‘pop the question. ’ As the scene changes, we see a switch board where an attractive young lady is busily putting in telephone calls. Her warm, friendly voice betrays her identity. It’s Edda Runze. A few moments pass, as we wait for the next picture of the future to appear. We find a department store. As we look about for someone we know, we recognize Elva Wilt, using sales talk on a stubborn customer. ra | The next thing we see in the mirror is an airplane zooming through the air. As it nears, we see a slim stewardess making a passenger comfortable. Her soft brown hair identifies her as Marjorie Glotfelty. The sight dims once more and we find ourselves waiting anxiously for more pic- tures. At last! The warm sunny climate of the South--a small bungalow that has just been built--a mai. is busily painting, while below, his wife looks on with a satisfied ex- pression. We can't recognize the man, but since we know the woman is Norma Mickey, the man has to be Logan Wengerd. Now we see a lonely bachelor who has made a fortune for himself playing pool. He is none other than Homer Durst. As the scene changes to a grocery store in Rockwood, a woman appears pushing a buggy. She enters the store, and as she opens the door, we know her to be Lois Wiley. The mirror soon changes again to a young man who owns a large garage, ‘‘Pettit’s Repair Shop.’ The name sounds familiar. As he comes striding out, we know he is Richard Pettit. A little further on, we get a picture of a small candy shop displaying delicious goodies. A pudgy little man is looking out the window. We are greatly surprised to see it is Harry Turbin. The scene changes--a busy government office. And look’ Joan Ravenscroft is the head typist. And now, the theater--a musical festival. The curtain rises. Here is Princess Yum Yum with her sweet rich tones. We close our eyes to enjoy it all, but I cannot for- get the beauty of Princess Yum Yum. It is finished, and she takes her curtain bows. Who can it be but our classmate, Doris Hollada. The second show begins. The spotlight is focused. Who should appear in the spot- light but our golden-voiced soprano, Jean Yommer. As she begins to sing, her eyes scan the crowd to center upon a very attentive young man. Do we know him? Of course, it’s the one and only Clayton Livengood. The view changes quickly. We see a large, cool restaurant. An attractive waitress is busily working and waiting on her customers. As she smiles ata young man just entering, we recognize her as Gladys Carey. And now, we find ourselves in the gallery of the Senate Chamber of the National Capitol. Together with all others, we find ourselves listening raptly to the oration of the Senator of Maryland. With one sweep of his hands and voice, he covers the whole Senate Chamber, and we see that the Senator is Robert Layman. At this moment, there is a stir in the section of the gallery set. Entering the President’s pew, we see the First Lady of the land, our old classmate, Helen Orendorf. 2a What now? A movie, audience hushed and waiting for the lights to go off. At last, the lights are switched off, and the movie begins. Before us on the screen is a comedy picture starring Joe Myers, an old classmate. _ Next, a football game. The stadium is packed. The coach is talking to his team. He turns his head and betrays his identity. He is Marvin Miller, football coach at the University of Maryland. What next? A church filled with flowers, the choir is softly singing. A bride is walking up the aisle to the altar on her father’s arm. The groom is waiting anxiously for her. Why look, it is Vernon Miller. The minister is standing ready to begin the ceremony. This is a surprise: Freddy Clark is the minister. The scene slowly changes to a newspaper office filled with busy workers. The editor is just firing a worker. We wonder what happened. Listen? The voice--it’s Robert Buckel. We never dreamed he would be a newspaper editor. The view dims, and in its place we see a country mansion. On the lawn, a tea party is being held. The hostess is flitting back and forth, chatting to everyone. The sun shines on her bright red hair, reminding us of Patsy Miller. As she gives one of her guests a quick wink and grins, we know that is Patsy Miller. Gone, so quickly? Look: There is the Jennings Fire Brick Company. Who do we see piling bricks but our two squirts, Paul Hetrick and Robert Swauger. A college campus: An endless daisy chain: Long lines of young women in caps and gowns pass up the marble steps beyond the massive columns past the reviewing stand of the University president, a stately woman of noble brow. As each student curt- sies, the smile of the president betrays her identity--our old classmate Marion Wilson. The scene changes to a farm. On the back porch is a figure plucking away on the guitar singing, ‘‘Your Love Is Colder Than A Foggy River.’’ We know by his vuice that it is our hillbilly classmate, Harley Brenneman. As this picture fades from view, we see a small cottage with a trellis of red roses growing around one of the windows. As the picture becomes clearer, we see a woman calling from the window to five small boys in the yard. From the sound of her voice, we know she is Ruth Beal. As yet, we have not seen the future of Alda Minnick prophesied, so we asked the mirror about her. This is what it showed us: a public health nurse working diligently over a group of school students. And now, my friends, the spell is snapped. Whether our visions have been tedious or interesting, whether they have hurt or pleased, you may credit the result to the looking glass. Committee: Edda Runze Alda Minnick Marjorie Glotfelty 23 CLASS POEM Among the students of old Grantsville High, Who seek important goals in Wisdom's Hall, And who for fame and honor always vie, Our Senior rank is coveted by all. The colors of this sturdy Senior Class, The mighty royal emblem, Silver and Blue, Are honored by each Senior lad and lass, As forward goes our banner tried and true. In choosing a class flower for our own, We passed the blossoms dignified and cold, And chose the sweetest flower ever grown, The Yellow Rose with purest heart of gold. In problems haunting high school days and nights, We've ever kept in mind our motto true, Ever Onward, up to loftier heights, Still loyal to our banner, Silver and Blue. Then, Classmates, as we bid our school adieu, We'll smile and still advance our slogan bold, And make our lives reflect the Silver and Blue, As on through life our future plans unfold. Committee: Joan Ravenscroft and Doris Hollada CLASS SONG Four years of toil and fun we will remember As classmates here in dear old Grantsville High; And now our Alma Mater every member Salutes, as graduation day draws nigh. Long may we keep our motto, Ever Onward, Still guided by our flower, the Yellow Rose, And waving high our colors, Blue and Silver, To where the golden light of all our future glows. Too soon beyond these walls we will be going To fill our chosen place along life’s way; While in success and service we are growing We'll honor G. H, S, from day to day. 24 SCHOOL SONG Hail, Alma Mater: Dear Grantsville High School? Each son and daughter thy flag will fly. Emblem so royal: Thee we will bless; To thee be loyal; thy wrongs redress. Thy name we'll honor, thy foes defy. Hail, Alma Mater: Dear Grantsville High! True to our motto: ‘‘At foothills, climbing,”’ Wafting aloft our slogan so bold, Ever we're singing as on we climb, Our ideals winging to heights sublime, Trusting in thee, our hopes running high, Hail, Alma Mater: Dear Grantsville High’ Hail to our standard! Valiant and bold? Hail to our banner! Dear Green and Gold? Ever we'll cherish memories of thee. Never shall perish our loyalty. Our Green and Gold forever shall fly. Hail, Alma Mater: Dear Grantsville High? FAREWELL SONG Soon we'll be leaving our dear Grantsville High, Seeking the dreams we have planned, We'll say without grieving farewell not good-bye While looking on life’s strand. Leaving our classmates we've cherished so long, Sharing our hopes day by day, Our pledge of allegiance in our last farewell song, We will give, ere we go on our way. We're eagerly peering our future to see While sailing toward our goal, For soon we'll be steering our bark o’er life’s sea, Where treacherous billows may roll. How far we’ll be sailing we cannot foretell For we're aiming to answer life’s call, With hope never failing we will bid you farewell, Schoolmates, classmates, all. 25 CLASS WILL We, the Senior Class of Grantsville High School of 1949, being of sound mind, notwithstanding the many serious problems pressing down upon us, do hereby pub- lish our last will and testament. 1.

It had its beginning on November 12, 1946, when twelve members were present. Membership has been as high as fifty-three, but at present there are forty-seven mem- bers. During the two years that it has existed, it has made sixty-eight public appear- ances and has earned eighteen-hundred dollars in prizes and awards. The purchases made by the band included three thousand dollars worth of uniforms and one thousand dollars worth of band equipment. Two representatives have been chosen each year to play in the All-Maryland Band at the State Teachers’ Association in Baltimore. Our representatives during the two year have been, Donna Reckner, Marjorie Gortner, Richard Bender, and Margie Kinsinger. The band’s proudest achievement took place when it was chosen to represent the University of Maryland at the Maryland-West Virginia football game. The officers for this year are: President, Richard Bender; Vice-President, Robert Diehl; Secretary, Janice Jones; Treasurer, Shirley Keister; Librarian, Jane Bowman; and Custodian, Harley Brenneman. We must not forget to mention that the band sponsored the Band Boosters’ Club whose members were citizens of the community. This club eventually was used as a basis for our present Parent-Teachers’ Association. Thoroughly drilled and skillfully directed by Mr. Roger Cole, the band is an organ- ization of which the school and community is justly proud. TBs pets he Formerly known as the Maple Land Agriculture Club, the Agriculture Department of Grantsville High School reorganized in 1929 to become a local chapter of the Future Farmers’ of Maryland. This state organization is, in turn, a branch of the Future Far- mers of America, which is composed of boys studying Vocational Agriculture throughout the United States. Officers of the F. F. A. for 1948-1949 include: President, Donald Glotfelty; Vice- President, Delford Crowe; Secretary, Robert Buckel; Treasurer, Harry Durst; Sentinel, Harley Brenneman; and Reporter, Marvin Miller. Marvin Miller, Donald Glotfelty, and Kenneth Beachy, accompanied by Mr. Garletts, the Sponsor, went to Baltimore in January to receive awards that were won in the Farm Bureau Contest. Marvin won first in the swine contest, and Donald, second in the beef contest. 33 Donald Glotfelty attended the National F. F. A. Convention in Kansas City to rep- resent the Grantsville Chapter. The convention lasted one week and is held annually to elect national officers, to award the American Farmer degree, to plan the national pro- gram of work, to award gold emblems to outstanding chapters, and to hold regular bus- iness sessions. Donald Glotfelty and Marvin Miller hold the Maryland Farmer degree in the State F. F. A. Chapter. Grantsville won second place in a state wide chapter contest. Accomplishments reported in the Grantsville Chapter include the following: mem- bers net worth - $10, 047; represented in state wide contests, chapter teams won second place in public speaking, third place in swine judging, third place in dairy judging, second place in poultry and egg judging, seventh place in beef judging; and a chapter team placed third in the regional contest at Springfield, Massachusetts. The chapter has provided a cement mixer and a pair of clippers for community use. THE SAFETY PATROL One of the most vitally important organizations of the Grantsville School, is the Safety Patrol Club. It was organized in 1936. Mr. Frank J. Getty served as Advisor to the Patrol until 1940, when he appointed Mr. Edwin Elias to take his place as Advisor. Mr. Grimm replaced Mr. Elias when he transferred to another school in the fall. There are forty-five members on the Safety Patrol this year. Their captain is Delford Crowe, while the lieutenants are Richard Bender, Logan Wengerd, Harley Brenneman, and Robert Cclgan. The Western Maryland Motor Club, Cumberland, Maryland, furnished all belts and badges and provided, at small cost to each participant, a trip to Washington, D. C. During the war, the Patrol paraded in Cumberland and attended a free movie. In addition to bus duties, the Patrol usually serves during fire drills, street parades, and as ushers for graduation exercises. Grantsville was reputed to have had the second most dangerous place in the state for loading and unloadiny buses, and no accident of any description has ever occurred to any student. THE DRAMATIC CLUB The main function of the Dramatic Club has been to learn how to act and to give pro- grams before an audience. The one play that was presented during our Junior Year was ‘ ‘Dynamite Dan.’’ The club has monthly meetings with an attendance of thirty-six members. Miss Speicher is the Sponsor, while the officers are: President, Phyllis Resh; Vice-President, Vernon Miller; Secretary Richard Pettit; and Treasurer, Richard Bender. 34 Ae OR em cee FS F. F. A.

For approximately thirteen years, the club was known as the ‘‘Betty Lamp Club. ’ In 1946, it was organized into a national organization as the F. H. A. (Future Homemakers of America). Besides obtaining instructions in cooking and sewing, the chief aim of the club is to strive to set before each girl the idea that to be socially efficient she must have good health, must be able to support herself and those depending upon her, must know how to use her leisure time profitably, must be able and willing to work with others, and she must have high ideals and good habits. There are approximately forty-four members under the direction of Miss Borror, our Home Economics teacher. The officers of the F. H. A. are: President, Sue Durst; Vice-Preside nt, Mary Jane Emory; Secretary, Janice Jones; and Treasurer, Margie Kinsinger. THE MATH CLUB The Math Club was organized in 1945 for those who especially liked Mathematics and wanted to learn more about it. Its official name is the Triangle Club. It is under the Sponsorship of Mr. Replogle. At the regular monthly meetings, the members of the club present quizzes in Arithmetic and discuss the history and the importance of this field of learning. Besides these meetings, they set aside special evenings to go roller skating and bowling. The officers for 1949 are: President, Ruth Beal; Vice-President, Joan Ravenscroft; Secretary, Alda Minnick; and Treasurer, Thelma Lowry. THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council has always been considered a very worthy organization in the Grantsville High School. The main function of the Student Council is to consider many student problems which present themselves in the high school. There are ten members in the Student Council, which is under the direction of Mr. Cole. The members are made up of two students elected from each class. Meetings of the Student Council are called whenever it is found necessary. Officers for 1949 include: President, Mary Jane Emory; Vice-President, Robert Colgan; Secretary, Sue Durst; and Treasurer, Helen Otto. 37 gg RP SIGE Bt i ee wey py RMI SRS SNE LOE SR SRR SO pce, ee oe = So TB RT Re ME SS gues, ne eo hires =| Nae Ss) OE Gs EI tie SRR AEP TB BAN Sees a Bae Sa ae TUN Rec HE Reine SaaS “ septate 2 Mawes Bete eee CO EN eT we BON SSS SN LON cs AES SORE ARAN RE Piagelse us es DRAMATIC CLUB 38 HF HABE BRST AE i HE ahh Cars asl HEH A HH HOH HH AH RHHHH ti FIELDBALL TEAM GIRLS’ a He) ven =as i; itl i ¢ ig 4) 4 BOYS’ SOCCER TEAM 40 FIELDBALL 1948-1949 September - school days began once again. Weren't we surprised, as the faculty was introduced, to find that we had, for the first time, a physical education instructor, who was also to be our coach. Of course, we lost no time in beginning our drills and strenuous exercises pre- paring ourselves for our competition in county fieldball and basketball games. Our new coach, Miss Morford, built us up both physically and morvaily, giving us courage and confidence. Perhaps, we were a little over-confident. We won only two of our eight county games of fieldball, although we were never too far behind the teams to whom we lost. We can proudly say we played fair and hard at all our games. Games: G. H.

Everyone was greatly excited about the successes and failures of the boys, now under the super- vision of their new coach, Mr. Lantz. Although we tried hard, we did not achieve the championship that we held in 1947- 1948. In county competition, we won two, lost four, and tied two games. We appreciate the hard work of both the boys and the coach. Games: G. H. S. 1 vs Beall 4 G. H.S. 0 vs Accident 2 sah. S.’-l. vs Beall 1 G. H. S. 6 vs Oaklana 4 G. H. S. 3 vs Friendsville 4 G. H.

We also played several other non-county games of which we wonthree. Our high scorer was John Keister, totaling 158 points.

Our girls won two games with Accident and one with Oakland. Jean Yommer was our high scorer witha total of 140 points to her credit for '48-’49 season. Basketball Scores G. H. S. 37 vs Accident 24 G.
