Our camera pauses here and there in the classroom and on the campus to record a brief picture and then passes on to other scenes. For those who would travel with us, a rich store of memories will provide a background to temper the inadequacy ol word and picture and suggest faintly marked paths ol attainment where they may once more stroll in retrospection. l-lere again they may experience the joy ol: a task well done, the confidence ol: an obstacle overcome and the satisfaction of another goal achieved. ksiiiii Y X 0 FIRST-We . . .

CLASSES . . . WE INTERVIEW THE BOARD Qc- f VN E xi Cl Q , I X A M 'Ii' 'Q-3- . Anticipation grips the minds of the seven mem- bers of the Board of Education as one by one they file into their meeting room and take their places, for this is the most important meeting of the year. The purpose of the session is to choose a contractor to take over the responsibility of erecting a new school addition. At least fifty diierent individuals inter- ested in the proposed construction are present, and, as the board room is not large, the meeting is moved to the auditorium. Mr. George Brown, president, calls the meeting to order and the secretary, Miss Dorothy Harman, records the names of the members present-Mrs. F. M. Robb, Mr. William McCullough, Dr. Thomas St. Clair, Mr. W. H. Flickinger, Dr. S. W. Nealon, and Mr. H. A. Stewart. Mr. Hulton, whose regular duties as Super- intendent of Latrobe Schools are greatly enlarged by his active interest in the new addition, takes an im- portant part in this meeting. Miss Harman opens the sealed envelopes which con- tain the bids of the numerous contractors. The board collectively holds its breath for fear the bids will be above their available finances, for the members are obligated not only to provide good schools but to weigh the financial burden to the community as well. Mr. Charles H. Sorber, the architect, reads the first bid and the board relaxes . . . it is within the limit of the budget. After all the bids have been read and recorded, the seven members of the Board of Educa- tion retire to the board room and choose a contractor to carry out the momentous task in the ofiing. Eager contractors wait patiently in the auditorium until the board re-enters and Mr. Hulton announces their choice . . . Mr. John C. Yenter of Tyrone. Page Ten And Are Introduced To Mr. I-Iulton and Mr. Funk When the meeting is adjourned the seven members stand about in conversational groups. It has indeed been a happy and momentous meeting of the Board of Education for its dream of an adequate physical plant for Latrobe High School is soon to become a reality. Although not an ofiicial member of the board, Mr. Hulton keeps in close touch with the contractors and their work, bringing problems and plans before the board at their regular and special meetings. In cold weather or warm, students invariably see him on the s-ite of construction . . . talking with both contractors and workers, studying blue prints, viewing the rapidly rising structure. Although more than busy with his regular work as superintendent-dictating letters, ex- amining new textbooks, visiting schools-Mr. Hulton always finds time to keep in touch with each step of work in the high school addition. Just across the hall Mr. Funk is busily engaged in the duties which fall to the lot of Latrobe High School's principal. His day is a picture of activity from the time he enters his ofiice each morning until he leaves the school each evening, and then often his work is un- finished. To record Mr. Funk's activities on a typical afternoon would require a moving picture camera. At cne o'clock he enters the building and is immediately accosted by a boy wishing his help in re-arranging a schedule in order to include an extra subject. He in- vites the student into his office, and in a short while the schedule is arranged to the satisfaction of both. When the bell for the first afternoon period rings, Mr. Funk leaves his office and strolls about the crowded hall, occasionally stopping to talk with a teacher. After all class room doors are closed, he returns to the oliice to begin his afternoon program. During the seventh period he visits a history and an English class. At the beginning of the next period, he again helps a student who has come seeking his advice. Before the period is over he dictates a letter, reads his afternoon mail, gives information to a High Post reporter and answers numerous phone calls. Thus passes another afternoon. As high school administrator and student adviser, Mr. Funk is called upon every day of the school year to meet unusual situations and solve numerous problems arising in Latrobe High School.

A visitor in Mr Wild' ' ' . s civics class finds the freshmen studying textbooks, making posters, presenting plays -all in an earnest endeavor to define good citizenship. The visitor moves on to room 116 where Mr. Hoer is conducting an open forum in a historv II class, dis-- cussing the causes, events, and results of the Cru- sades. Maps covering the epochs of ancient history are perused by geographically minded students. An- other group attempts to list chronologically the im- portant events of the unit. A glance at a sopohomore's notebook shows that this class has studied ancient and European history from the stages of primitive man to the industrial revolution. The spirit of Americanism becomes apparent upon entering Mr. Rise's American history class. The juniors at their desks are reading and taking notes on the Civil War, sectionalism, and expansion in the United States. Several pupils stand about the book case, rummaging through the books for new sources of material. Another group gathers around the teacher, discussing the possibilities of an essay con- test on the Constitution. 1.

Bottom: Trunk developing ex- ercises are the center of attraction in girls' gym classes. HAND PASS CN TO THE GYM To Learn The Rules ot Health ' Physical education in both classroom and gymnasium keeps La- trobe students busy three periods a week. A typical girls' health class finds Miss Donnelly at her desk suggesting new material, asking questions, signing library permits. Several girls bring in interesting articles to read to the class, still others report on books relating to the unit. Informality is the keynote of this class. A period of health under Mr. Snyder means forty minutes of rapid-1 fire questioning and drill for boys. They file into the room, take their places quickly, and begin the lesson.

Line up . . . roll call . . . marching . . . skipping . . . tap dancing . . . playing basketball . . . all under the capable leadership of Miss Donnelly. A boys' gym period is a picture of diversiiied activity. In one corner there is a group working out on parallel bars. Some Who are not playing basketball are making good use of the mats. Still others engage in wrestling, boxing, tumbling. The period comes to an end all too soon and there follows a mad dash for the showers. Soap, towels, and combs Hy as the boys hurriedly dress for the next class. It is health examination time, and one by one the pupils lay down their books long enough to have their eyes and ears tested by Dr. Bell and Miss Lenz, the school doctor and his assistant. Can you read the top line? Are the letters clear? Have you had your tonsils removed? and such questions float through the door of the little examination room, where students learn of their physical clehciencies and how to correct or remedy them. It is by these methods . . . health courses, gym classes, examinations . . . that high school students learn the essentials of physical and mental health. !

REACHING THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT We Pause For a Bit ot Shakespeare ancl Dickens ' Latrobe Highls English department claims a student for approximately 720 periods during his four year high school career. Of these periods, he may spend 180 in Miss McBride's ireshman class. One busy period in which the hrst year students diagram sentences on the board and review the funda- mentals of grammar is typical of all the rest. The place is a classroom: the time is during one of Mr. Rizzo's sophomore English periods, But what THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Latrobe High School's English faculty discuss possible changes in the course of study. Seated: Miss Osborne, Miss Frable, and Miss lVlcBride. Standing: Miss Lafferty,Mr. Dovey, Mr. Rizzo, and Mr. Benford. Page Fourteen is this? Three boys, draped in coats borrowed for the occasion, are enacting an immortal scene from Shakespeares As You Like Itf' What if they do stumble over the ditlicult lines and the awkward phrases-it looks like a lot of fun. All is duiet in this room except for an occasional rustle of papers, be-- cause Miss Lafferty's sophomores are taking a test. The heading at the top of the yellow sheets on the stu- dents' desks reads 'tMastery Test on 'Silas Marner'f' This is no place for a visitoreso we tiptoe quietly out. Are there any criticisms on that talk, asks the chairman as one of Mr. Dovey's pupils takes his seat. Hands are raised and suggestions are oifered as, one by one, students conclude their oral reports. Future Clays and Calhouns, and perhaps, Huey Longs pour out their views-with Mr. Benford's help-on democ- racy, war, and economics in a period given over to the study of oratory. As Miss Osborne sits down in the back of the room, the chairman announces that the subject of the extem- poraneous talks is the historical background for A Tale of Two Cities. The lirst speaker talks, and the students learn that Dr. Guillotine did not invent the guillotine, he merely suggested it as a humane instru- ment of death. In room 103 Miss Frable concludes the study of Milton's poems when she asks the students for their completed essays concerning the author's life. The latter part of the period is devoted to class discussion on the historical background of Macbeth . . . WHILE IN THE COMMERCIAL CLASSES We Pick Up Some Fine Points On Business Routine Patrick NicKaV and Betty' Lenz run off copies of a his- tory outline ori the duplicators while other office practice stu- dents complete their assign- ment. Junior business training, spelling and writing, . typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, salesmanship, and oflice practice keep commercial students busy from morning 'till night, from freshman initum , 'till senior exitum. The quaking freshman is put at his ease after a period of junior business training. As soon as he takes his seat, the fun begins. Miss McBride divides the class in half, each pupil chooses a partner, and they take turns demonstrating the use of the telephone and carrying on conversation over imaginary Wires. Miss Hardies' class in typing presents a busy pic-ture of sophomores mastering the keyboard With catchy finger drills. A s f g h j k leover and over again until, as touch typists they enter Miss Al- lisons' junior class for final polishing. Here they also learn shorthand, another step on the commercial lad- der. Drill is the byword for students in this period when Miss Allison Writes new phrases on the board and dictates to give the future stenographers practice. One-two-three-four-use-arm-move - ment, drones Miss Shallenberger to the penmen in her writing class. The Writing lesson complete, the students take sides and indulge in an old-fashion spelling-bee. I am a representative of J. J. Jay SL Company. I should like to sell you . . . and so future salesmen learn the fine art of salesmanship in Miss Wiley's class. A period of bookkeeping begins and Mr. Gaudino makes the familiar assignment . . . Post your journ- als, Under Mr. Stover's direction, seniors taking office practice keep the mimeograph machine in constant ac- tion . . . which probably means a ti-st for some unfor- tunate history or English class. The finished tests and announcements are carried . . down the steps and through the hall'-to the office where Miss Himler and Miss Harman, office secretaries, give them a final check. And so the commercial students wend they way to the top of the ladder to be sent out at the end of their senior year into commercial fields . . . as bookkeepers, stenographers, accountants . . . future business men and business Women of America. Top-Miss Himler answers some corres- pondence of the office while Miss Harman checks the student files.

In Miss Danie1's biology laboratory, sopho- mores examine the various mounted specimens on the shelf. Several students study a cage of cocoons to gain a practical understanding of rnetamorphosis, While others watch an aquarium of ish to observe the process of breathing. Amid flasks, bunsen burners and crucibles the chemists of Latrobe High experiment with various compounds. Apparatus is set-up, chemicals measured and mixed, and the flame applied--resulting in hy- drogen. Mr. Weigman moves about the laboratorv inspecting the Work and asking questions concerning the fromulas of H20 and Na2SO'. Mr. Weigman clears up Q a troublesome point in chemical procedure during lab period. Page Sixteen ot Many Daily Wonders 51 Nlr.

Several pupils ex- hibit charts and notebooks concerning the develop- ment of the airplane, electric car, locomotive, and boat. Levers, scales, spring balances, boilers, and steam engines are the materials that the Physics classes work with to understand laws of gravitation, weights, and the principle of steam. Mr. Rummel illustrates the complicated parts of the steam engine with a scale model, demonstrating the action of the piston, and the principles of steam propulsion. neutralization of acids. bases, ft, 'feb , -- ge Ng .

The same homelike at- mosphere pervades Miss Gibson's kitchen where domestic-minded girls learn the fine art of cook- ing. The open door of the cooking room reveals skillets, kettles, and ovens on the fire, and the pleasant aroma arising from the contents of shining pans causes many palates to tingle. Budding artists gather around the table where Miss Himler, art instructor, explains the tech- nique of shading. Then the students experiment, each on his own drawing, with the instruction he has just received. And a quiet, contented group they make mixing colors and wielding brushes. As the period draws to a close, they dry the brushes and put away their work. Art class is their relaxation, for art is their safety valve. Future Kreisler's and Paderewski's tune their instruments and sort music as they wait for their conductor. It's not concert night of the Philadelphia Symphonyg it's merely the rehearsal of Latrobe High School's orchestra. Mr. Ring- rose takes his place by the conductor's stand, raises his baton, and the listener recognizes the strains of Londerry Air as the students begin another rehearsal. Mr. Ringrose and Miss Vosberg watch in- terestedly as Miss Himler points out the vari- ous parts of a drawing and Miss Gibson wonders if it can be applied to her cooking class. Top-Art students prepare prize-winning posters for annual fire prevention campaign. Center-Dresses are made and fitted by the young stylists of the sewino class.

Miss Claire Gibson and Miss Whitinq, Miss Bree- Miss Reepinq inspect the ton, and Miss Hamilton possibilities of a verb wheel select figures for math for language instruction. class demonstrations. The earnest expressions, the sporadic movements of pen- . cils, and the intermittant rub of erasers indicate that stu- dents in Miss Wltiting's algebraclass are working with a set of difficult problems. All is quiet for a while, then suddenly a stu- dent who thinks he has found a solution raises his hand and Miss Whiting moves to his desk to inspect the resuit. Six students stand at the board drawing circles, triangles and parallelograms with compasses and yardsticks in Miss Ham- ilton's plane geometry class. One by one they complete their drawings and take their seats until the first one is called onto prove that the oppisite sides of a parallelogram are equal. f'Angle 1 equals angle 2g angle 3 equals angle 4, side a equals side cg triangle ABC is congruent to triangle ACDQ therefore, side d equals side e -and the theorem is properly proved. Before the period ends the assignment has been made, each student has had a chance to explain his problem for the day, and finally, the lesson complete, all figures are erased from the board. Miss Hamilton answers several questions on the assignment as the bell closes the class. Miss Breeton, after a busy noon-time oi' Writing excuses, giving early dismissals and checking attendance, leaves the oHice and enters a class room to teach a period of arithmetic. She collects home work papers and then conducts an extensive review for an examination--drilling primarily in speed tests for addi- tion, subtraction, multiplication and division. The study of num- bers proves a fascinating subject for mathematically minded students. Page Eighteen Unintelligible mutterings come through the open door of one class room. An ob- server pauses outside that doorway to look in on one of Miss Reeping's Latin classes. He recognizes at once the familiar hic. haec, hoc repeated by the freshmen. Board work follows the regular translation of the day's paragraph and the students act as critics, correcting any mistakes in their classmates' Work. Toward the end of the period, Miss Reeping announces that each student interested in taking Latin II must write his name on a slip of paper to be handed to her before four o'clock. In this way she is able to plan work for the fol- lowing year. lt doesn't take Miss Gibson long to find out which students in her class will make good Frenchmen and which ones will be much better oi to stay in America. Every junior and senior knows that he must be on his toes for French class. From the moment he enters until the time he leaves he is kept busy translating, reciting, writ- ing vocabulary words .ind sentences, and memorizing new rules so necessary to an understanding of the French language. 1 Miss Breeton helps to clear up a difficulty at the board in a freshman Arithmetic class.

Above the roar of motors, Mr. Knier is heard explaining the operation of an intricate machine while one of the boys, a senior member of the class. demon- strates its use for the benefit of the newcomers. On Parents' Night, mothers, fathers, and friends crowd into the agriculture room in the Walker building. Favorable comment on the attractive display arranged by Mr. Riley's stu- dents is heard from all sides. On one table the process of seed cultivation is illustrated with pic- tures and actual seeds.

Robert Wilt, Patsy Ciafre, Mike Ciocco, William Callaghan, Robert Cribbs, Stanley Gebicki, Raymond Kuhn, Raymond Mull, and Ralph and Paul Houpt. Although they num- ber thirteen the seniors do not bring bad luck to their team. This becomes evident when George Quitko, Dean Shawley and Henry Grant lead the crowd in a cheer for the victors. The Home-Coming Day parade brings out floats of all shapes, sizes and colors-miniature shiDs, football fields, gardens-but it takes a senior home room, 101, to carry away laurels with a prize-winning entry, a clever Garden of Life. Another senior room, 104, captures second honors with two life sized football players clasping hands in friendship. As the curtain comes down on the first Dlay of the year, Tons of Money, Robert Humes, Henry Grant, I.ee Trowbridge, Robert Karns and Evelyn Dolfini make their bows to an appreciative audience. The week prior to the Hallowe'en Dance finds Ruth Binkey, Robert Humes, James Robbins and Louise Millard giving chapel announcements, preparing post- ers-helping to make the affair a success. On the night of the dance, Jean Luttner and James Ruffner carry away the prizes with their clever costumes. The time is shortly after the second issue of the High Post has been distributed, and the scene is any place in the corridor. Pleased exclamations come from a group of seniors as they read that Lee Trowbridge will preside over the local chapter of the National Honor Society. Now there is snow on the ground and the Christ- mas spirit pervades Latrobe High as James Learn. Alfred Lamke, and Wilson Gallo erect a pine tree in the hall-the senior contribution to Christmas decora- tions. Jean Luttner, Antenina Accorsi, Vivian Keltz, Margaret Murphy, and Jane Robb drape the tinsel and set the lights to twinkling. Make your entrance from the other door, prompts Irene Kruzynski, student director of the Christmas play, as she gives the cast a final going over. Thomas Cort is there and so are Thomas Mowry, Eleanor Carp- owich and Richard McKlveen-all rehearsing for the first performance of The Music Box. Shoot, roars the crowd as Moersch dribbles down the iioor. Instead Chris throws the ball to Steele. He tries a shot, but the ball is intercepted by an oppo- Page Forty nent. Jones, on the spot, captures it and fiips it to Pagnanelli. Burns, at last free, takes a fast pass from the corner and tosses it through the hoop-and the Latrobe Wildcats score another basket with the sen- iors waging the battle! The usher brings the judges' decision to the stageg a hush comes over the audience, and eight orators' hearts beat quickly as the chairman rises to his feet. Then loud applause sounds as he announces the winner is Robert Humesg second place, Thomas Cortg third place, Jean Mobergg and honorable mention, Evelyn Dolfinif' With forensics in full swing, Thomas Cort and Robert Humes debate in one room: Irene Kruzyn- ski, Anne Treager, and Virginia Steininger read poetry in another.

Thomas Gallo, as vice presidentg Hildegarde Staulfer, secretaryg Russell Sipe, treasurerg and Jack Mapel, Student Council rep- resentative are named to assist him in the many duties class olT1cials must undertake. This busy class disregards no activity and as football practice gets under way nine juniors race across the field. Two of them line up with the first team, Neal Crain at fullback and Thomas Gallo on the line, while the remainder warm up ready to act in relief positions on a moment's notice. Before the close of the season another, Jacob Noel, steps in the varsity line at center. The first social event of the year reveals another phase of junior activity, the Hallowelen Dance.

Mary Elizabeth Fradel, Francis Bridge and Charles Hough hang black cats from the balcony and place pumpkins and ghosts in the corners to add to this bewitching season of evil spirits and goblins. The night of the dance arrives and juniors clad in a variety of costumes from Mother Goose to Little Red Riding Hood dance to the merry rhythm of Elmer Olson's orchestra. In the auditorium such sounds as lt will help you in preparation for college or i'EXaminations have always been of benefit to high school students, ring out as Patricia Oglesby and Dorothy Brooks try to convince their freshmen opponents that Examina- tions should not be abolished in Latrobe High School. After hearing the final rebuttal, the judges decide in favor of the juniors. The following debate gives the juniors recognition as school winners when they defeat the sophomore team who uphold the subject of Private Ownership of Public Utilities. As inter-class win- ners the debaters journey to Carnegie Library to gather, arrange and compile material for the county debate upon the question of 'fGovcrnment Ownership of Public Utilities. While the Held of debating claims two juniors, the Kiwanis Extemporaneous Contest brings to the front seven who in a few minutes' notice uphold and discuss the question of Does the American Public Want Non- Commercial Broadcast? For their outstanding dis- cussions on this topic Russell Sipe and Patricia Ogles- by are given honors as the junior class representatives in the finals where Patricia wins class and school hon- ors with her discussion of radio programs. She also captures the county contest at Monessen the following night. Althought the highlights of sports, dances and debates claim many 1938 graduates the junior class centers most of its activity around school clubs and organizations. In room 6 the journalists of the junior class prepare the ninth edition of the High Post for publication. Elizabeth Netzlof and Patricia Oglesby art as editors, make assignments, write headlines, check copy and prepare it for the printers. But be- fore this is done six other junior writers canvass the corridors and rooms to secure the necessary informa- tion for stories.

With the eighth period over he has- telilfi to his home room for his books and Wraps and within a few moments is on his way to Room 102 to attend a Latin Club meeting. Hero he is taken back to the time of The Assassination and Burial of Cae- sar. Robert Mather and Thomas Yee carry in the procession the casket containing the remains of Cae- sar, during which time William Conrad, representing Marc Anthony, delivers his famous funeral oration. Among those present at the services are Mary McEl- roy, enacting the part of Calpurnia, and Alvin Hile, a prominent citizen of Rome. During the course of the funeral Zita Okonak explains the Roman burial ceremony. The program, prepared by Alvin Hile, Mary McElroy, William Conrad and Margaret Zacur, comes to a close when Charlotte Binkey gives the his- tory of the Roman calendar. Page Forty-eight Hurrying over to the auditorium he finds that the dance committee meeting is postponed so he goes to the locker room, changes to his gym clothes, and in a little While is down in the gym. Performing on the horse and parallel bars, and practicing with Indian clubs and the rings, the sophomore trains with his classmates Bill McCaFferty, Floyd Keim, Guy Yolton, Paul Patterson, and Phillip Dibb for the school gym team. When he finishes here he goes home to spend an evening in making a notebook, translating Latin exercises, solving Algebra problems and reading live chapters in Silas Marnerf' Club meetings, debates, and gym work are not the only activities that provide the sophomore with extra- curricular duties. Some members of this class spend part of their time preparing news and feature stories, Writing headlines, and giving oral reports for class periods of Journalism I. Among the journali s are .lane Bair, Mary McElroy and Nancy Doherty ho on Friday afternoon count the High Posts while Zita Okonak and Suzanne St. Clair record the number of papers folded by Alvin Hile, Jean Miller, Sydney Mc- Kenna, June Rice, Josephine Panigal, and Genevieve Smith. Basketball also claims a great many sophomore slridents. With gym periods of basketball practice the class team is ready for intra-class games. Some of these athletes gain recognition on the varsity and junior varsity teams. Charles Massena, the only soph- omore on the varsity squad, receives a letter in recog- nition of his service in inter-scholastic games. The High Post's annual court selections name three soph- omores on the all-class tG2lH'lSiSLlS42ll1H9 St. Clair and Violet Edmundson gaining positions on the girls' squad and Raymond Grote on the boys' team. In intra-class competition the boys claim one victory over the juniors while the girls' team boasts of two victories, both over the freshman class. When the four o'clock dismissal hell rings and AND TELLS US WHAT FUN SCHCDOL HAS BEEN.. everyone prepares to go home, five sophomores Walk back and forth in the corridor trying to remember those points they read about The American Public and Good Radio Programs.

Preliminaries over and decisions made, stu- dents return the next morning to see on the bulletin board the names of the class contestants for the finals -Alvin Hile and Zita Okonak. Another week of re- search and study enables Zita to capture class honors in the final extemporaneous contest. The sophomores climax a year of activities both socially and scholastically with representations in the Girl Reserves, Culinary Arts Club and Music Depart- ment and are now ready to take the places in the audi- torium vacated by the jolly juniors.

With his orange hand book clutched tightly, he struggles up the stairs into the corridor. buffeted by the noisy crowd that pays no attention to him. Throughout the hallway stand students wearing badges, and the freshman, suspectiug they may be of help, slips quietly up to one of them to see what is on the badge. There in large letters he reads Student Council, Latrobe High School . Hesitatingly he asks this patrolman for Room 5. Following the direc- tions he finally reaches his destination where he is UPPER GROUP MORE BASHFUL given a desk as well as a tablet and pencil to prepare him for his first day in high school. A few weeks of science, English, Latin and algebra serve to locate this timid soul. He soon becomes :-lcouainted with his scheduled classes and finds no difficulty in locating rooms. Acquaintances come readily in the friendly atmos- phere in which the freshman finds himself. and he is soon ready to begin a year of active participation in school affairs.

SO WE ASK HIM QUESTIONS... ing the homeroom period the Class of 1940 casts its ballots in the first election of the Vear. With the votes tallied the High Post announces the ofiicial returns. George Mickey wins the election for president, while his assisting oiiicers include Barbara St. Clair. vice president, and John Hulton, treasurer. Student Coun- cil announcements reach the freshman class through its representative, Betty Andora, while minutes of glass meetings and membership records rest with the position of secretary held by Elaine Geary. At the opening social event of the year-the Hal- loween Dance?-the freshmen class makes its first public appearance. Here eight members of the class, Helen Geary, Dorothy Jones, Velma Gardner, Clarinda DeVittis, 'Elaine Geary, Ruth Crain, Thelma Fay Edwards and Jean Taylor, robed in old fashioned dresses of past centuries, slip in and c-ut among the gaudily attired throng to serve refreshing drinks and cakes prepared by their class. School runs on a pace and it is not long until the freshman is looking forward to the first vacation period of his high school career. The pleasurable an- ticipations with which he contemplates Thanksgiving are somewhat dimmed when he remembers he must pre- pare for his first dramatic appearance of the year in an assembly program. Long nights of practice and longer nights of anticipated stage fright bring The Court- ship of Miles Standish as the Thanksgiving play. John Campbell as John Alden and Jean Fitzmaurice as Priscilla bring rounds of applause from the audience with their closing embrace, While Helen Lechner as liame Haldy and Kenneth McCallen taking the part of Miles Standish bring out Pilgrim ideas and customs when they discuss the political situations confronting the settlers in America.

Those who achieve the cov- eted distinction of high honors inc-lude Ida Wigneld, Lois Miller and Edna Peffer. Honors go to forty-four others in the class. The opening of the second semester plunges the freshman into a period of excitement and expectation. For the first time he is taking an active part in club programs, musical features and those school organiza- tions in which he has been an onlooker up until now. At the February meeting of the Latin Club the fresh- man candidates stand in the back of the room ready to advance to the platform when their names are called Page Fifty-two to pass the test for membership in the Gens Togatof' These initiates include Paul Eiseman. John Hulton, John Kessler, Michael Megrey, Rudolph Melichar, Edna Peifer, Josephine Planinsek, Angelina Porembka and Nancy Stader. Stumbling over verb conjugations, noun declensions and character discussions in their effort to get the right answer for their senior inquis- itors, these new citizens assume the responsibilities of membership in this organization. While many such meetings are in session, other members of the freshmen class spend their time in the gymnasium. A basketball practice game is about ready to start as Ralph Keim, William Ballantyne, Joseph Pagnanelli, and Robert Statler. frosh members of the Junior Varsity, warm up by passing and shoot- ing. On the other side of the gym the freshmen boys prepare for a stiff battle.

From this group the judges select Barbara St. Clair, Nancy Stader, and John Hulton to take a part in the finals. With Barbara winning class honors in this competition, the freshmen gain their first Iaurels in forensic contests. Representation in other organizations of the school brings this class to the front as leaders in their Hrst year. Nine students of this class claim membership in the Student Council while the Girl Reserves, at the second meeting of the year, bestow recognition on thir- ty-five freshman girls as participants in the organiza- tion to carry out the aim of friendship and service.

Connellsville football game the stands are crowded and the teams are on the field. From a point in the-bleachers, a break in the crowd reveals a small orange box-like stand from which the steam of boiling hot dogs rises. Waiting on the counter- passing out hot dogs, candy, peanuts, chewing gum, and pop-is a group of Latrobe High School students. This is the Student Council, and thus it makes its first ap- pearance at the beginning of a school year. A member of Student Council enters the school at noon and glances up to the bulletin board. The green sign is out, calling a council meeting for the fifth period in room 5. That happens to be his best study period, as he loudly acclaimsg but nevertheless he re- pwrts to his home room, and when the bell rings, he is the first one to enter room 5. He seats himself near the front of the room where he may see and hear everything that goes on. Soon President Chris Moersch calls the meeting to order, and Secretary Lois Gregory checks attend- ance and reads the minutes of the last meeting. The president announces that the primary purpose is to select a program for a special assembly. Students Page Sixty voice their opinion on the type of programs they would prefer, and Mr. Beatty, adviser, lists the per- formers available. A vote is taken in which the Council decides to book Raymond Roberts and his Pam- ahasikas Pets,--performing dogs, monkeys and birds. Before the period ends, the council makes another momentous decision. It chooses as its gift to the school this year, two pictures-Miss Himler's John- son House , and a painting of the Westinghouse bridge. The tardy bell has just rung and the students hurry to their seats. After the home room teacher checks attendance, the Student Council Representa- tive walks to the front of the room and announces the stupendous Marble Ball scheduied for April. Everywhere a student of Latrobe High goes, he comes in contact with Student Council members and tneir projects. In assembly, the Bible is read to him by a Council representative. In his home room he buys basketball, football and assembly tickets from his representative. In the hall, Student Council posters remind him of coming plays and dances. And it matters not whether he is a senior or a freshman: he is represented in the Student Council of Latrobe High School. WITH . .

To the right stands the Color Bearer, Evelyn Dolfini, who is also the Student Council repre- sentative. Her gown of white has a cape lined in red. Next is the Herald in a blue gown accented with gold bandsg who calls attention to the members represented. Gold for Scholarship, to urge scholastic achievement, is worn by Irene Kruzynski.

The distinc- tion of representation in this organization is a further encouragement to overcome obstacles which may ap- pear in later life. As the ceremony comes to a close, achievement and significance are consecrated in word and deed by the pledge to the ideals of the distinc- tive and famous National Honor Society.

Armed with a pad and pencil, these students scan the corridors and classrooms for feature material and news stories for the High Post. Jack Mapel and Richard McKlveer1 may be found discussing the possibilities of a news-story for the 1-port page. At the same time, Esta Knier examines a sample cover of the Latrobean as she prepares a box for the feature page, and Ada Louise Quinn weighs the news value of several items for her column. Grayce Ashbaugh re-reads her completed story before handing it in. 0 Editor Edith McGinnis makes up the front and back pages, While Francis Atkinson, sports editor, works on the sport page, and Patricia Oglesby and IElizabeth Netzlof, assistant and managing editor, plan the make-up for the feature page. Getting the stories in their right places, checking headlines, and balancing the columns is the duty of the editorial siaff. James Ruffner, exchange editor, examines the papers of other schools for material for his column on the feature page. Reading proof and getting ready for the final run of the paper keeps this section of' the staff busy. Clara Martino directs the activities of the adver- tising department in the selling of advertising, prep- aration of copy, and collection of bills. Jane Robb fills out a sales contract and Helen Robbins secures an advertiser's index card from the files preparatory to riaking out his monthly bill. Advertising copy for the coming issue is prepared by Antenina Accorsi and Mary Elizabeth Fradel, while Tom Hunter and Hazel Luttner prepare a list of prospective Latrobean advertisers. In addition, Hazel must also find time to visit the Bulletin to secure mats to illustrate her column. It is a trip to room 6 and a dash back to their home rooms in time to distribute papers before their classmates leave. This is the routine of the High Post reporter who ably circulates the paper among the various subscribers. He must also aid in con- ducting the campaign and assume responsibility for the collection of subscription payments in his home room. HIGH Posr REPORTERS First row, left to right: P. Eiseman, J.

Copy readers must examine the story for errors in grammatical structure and style before it is sent io 213 where the staff typists prepare the final copy. Before this copy reaches the printer, proof readers must once again check the story, this time for typo- graphical errors and the correct spelling of all names. This is soon accomplished, and with the head re- counted and printed at the top, the story takes its place with a pile of others to be taken to the Bulletin. In a day or so, long galley proofs are returned tc he meticulously read line by line by the proof read- ers for all errors. Deletions, insertions, and correc- tions are made and the proofs are returned to the printer for revision. The editor retains a duplicate, and when all the stories have been set, page make-up begins. The original dummy prepared before assign- ments were made appears again and stories are trimmed to fit the space allotted them, the page is balanced, captions are written, and the first page is ready to be set-up. Before the press can run the proof readers must again inspect a page proof for Hnal errors. At 2:30 on Friday afternoon the High Post is delivered to the school where staff members fold the issue and the business manager counts out the exact number of copies each reporter requires.

After glancing at each contestant and examining the decision once again he announces Robert Humes as the winner of the twelfth annual Rotary Oratorical con- test for his oration The Eternal Quest. Thomas Cort receives second place with his Merchants of Death. Jean Moberg, pleading for Success, gains third place and Evelyn Dolfini, talking of Youth, re- ceives honorable mention. On March 12, Robert cap- tures honors for the county with his prize winning oration at the contest held in Monessen. Are the American Broadcasting Companies Giv- ing the People Good Programs? For the seventh consecutive year the Kiwanis Extemporaneous Con- test brings before the school a national issue which sends the students to the libraries for information con- cerning the radio. The finalists are given thirty min- utes of hasty scribbling, concentration, and suspense to organize a six minute speech. Patricia Oglesby, a junior, sends a ringing voice through the filled audi- torium with the prize winning speech. Other winners are senior, Evelyn Dolfinig sophomore, Zita Okonakg and freshman, Barbara St. Clair. Patricia, represent- ing Latrobe, captures first place at the county contest held in Monessen.

The junior team captures the school's Perpetual Chal.enge Debating cup in a contest with the sophomores on the snbject Government Control of Utilities. A day of research and explora- tion in the Carnegie Library at Pittsburgh with their coach, Mr. M. C.

In the county contest the Mon- cssen debaters defeat the local team by a close margin. Now I forget and I must begin over again for the third time. . . . 'My task is done, my song has ceased, my theme has died into an echo'. --these words from Ann Treager as she prepares for the poetry reading division of the county forensic contest. Ann receives first place in the local contest reading lines from Lord Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. Five students sit on the stage, each waiting his turn to deliver his declamation and wondering if he will present it as ably as did the original orator. The third speaker, E-'lgar Marvel, sends chills of fear over the audience with his interpretation of Clarence Darrow's Com- batting Crime, the prize winning declamation. Edgar takes second place in the county contest held in Mon- essen. Contestants strike a Shakespearean attitude as they read several extracts from works of the im- mortal bard in preparation for the finals of the local contest. The judges give Henry Grant first place for his interpretation of Malvolio from Twelfth Night. In the county contest held at Monessen, Henry receives second place.

This is merely a training period with two rehearsals each week and two assembly programs a year. Just as the instrumental classes provide an opportunity for students to learn to play from the beginning, so does Chorus I prepare the voice for Chorus II. According to their abilities, they are promoted to this higher group or Chorus II which is made up of the girls from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. Here one has an opportunity to display his ability and accom- plishments in assembly programs, Music Night, and various other performances. The next stop is in front of a group which no one could mistake in those striking orange and black uniforms. They parade on the field at football games, through the street in community parades and festivals, and appear on the stage for assembly and public gatherings, or on Music Night. Their gay satin capes with the emblem L is sufiicient to make any passer- hy comment on the appearance of the line musical group. This organization is not only for boys. Each year the band claims girls as its members, too. The other group, is easily recognized . . . not through their uniforms as is the band, but through the soothing music which is produced through their 9lTOl'tS . . . as the orchestra. It plays at all public meetings held in the high school auditorium, at as- sembly programs, and Music Night presentation. These twc organizations, the band and the orchestra each have three rehearsals a week. Besides the regular work, much fun is anticipated when it is time for these groups to meet. The String Trio composed of Patricia Keltz at the piano, Lester Gibson, violin, and Campbell Yates, violincello, provide entertainment at assembly pro- ams too. They rehearse twice a week and appear at public meetings and banquet programs. A similar group, the Clarinet Quartet, with the same advantages, is another newcomer in the musical organization. Betty Nickels, Jack Townsend, Robert Hegan, and Russell Sipe are the participants. These groups all go toward making the Music Hall . The entire responsibility of taking care of the chair and rack placement at all group rehearsals, music librarian, and stereoptican operator, is depend- ent upon George Mellors, the unseen man of many duties .

So many changes are made . . . roaring of thunder. blasting of horns, the theme of anger, fury and hatred. The ending changes the tempo bringing a sweet, serene song of laughter and gayety. The music department leaves the impression of numerous benefits. These are derived from the intif mate association with that activity which expresses joy, sincerity and has a tempo for every mood.

Robert Karns assumes the responsibility of pres- ident with Lester Gibson to assist him as vice-president. Jean Moberg acts as secretary and Ralph Johnson, treasurer. The latest achievement of the club is a marionnette show. Here, one imagines himself back in the days of chivalry and heroic deeds . . . with King' Arthur and his valiant knights. The antics of Boum-Boum, the clown, as he bobs across the diminutive stage sends the audi-- rlience into roars of laughter. The Future Farmers of America, a newly organized club, under the pres- idency of Dean Shawley, offers a different attraction to those who are interested Lnnl jus-1-10.--W in farming. The annual state farm products show held last January, claimed for its winners, Dean Shawley and Curtis Stahl, who received medals at the Harrisburg convention. With the aim to strengthen the confidence of the farmboy in his work, much interest is created in clubwork. The April ex- hibit emphasized the ideal farm and principles of brooding chicks, besides growing and testing projects. A hearty welcome is received from the Culinary Arts Club, and what artists they are! From the kitchens of these young ladies come those fragrances that haunt the corridors of the school. Is it anv wonder then, that their membership should increase from twenty-five to sixty in such a short time? Under the wise leadership of Thelma Hunter. who acts as president, the club continues its good work. Anna Lawlor acts as Vice- president with Kathryn Stahl as High Post reporter. The o1Tices of Student Council representative and secretary-treasurer are occupied by Rose DeFlavio and Virginia Steininger. Thrills, adventures, and fun all go to make up a meeting of the Junior Birdmen. Moving pictures on aeronautics hold the attention of all the members, and Mickey Williams as president leads the general get-together open forum which follows, where each enthusiast airs his views. John Shirey captures first prize in the contest for solid built-up-models and flying models with an accurate reproduction of a Taylor-Cub. Secretary Sam Comella's Vought takes second place.

Coming back in the third quarter, the Wild- nien, on a punt by Steele, score a safety for two points, and then battle until the opening of the fourth quarter when Massena receives the snap from center on his own 45 yard line and gallops 55 yards for the second touchdown and converts the extra point. After Mas- sena's' touchdown, the Orange and Black push over two more tallies before the final Whistle. The third touch- dcwn climaxes a 90 yard march, with Crane and Ciafre alternately carrying the ball. Crane finally smashes across from the six yard line. Ciafre supplies a fitting ending to the opener by sliding off tackle for 20 yards and the final score of the game, and so the crowd dis- perses satisfied with the Wildmen's first performance of the year. 0 Although smaller than their op- LATROBE ' 19 ponents the East Huntingdon eleven holds the Orange and Black ball carriers to little gain through two periods in which Lady Luck plays havoc with the Latrobe backs.

The tables turn in the third quarter, however, when Moersch crashes the line for the first score of the game and adds the extra point by conversion. Bud Massena supplies the sec- ond touchdown of the game as he outruns Pilato, out- standing player for the visitors, and dashes over the goal after a 13 yard sprint. The third and final score of the game comes when Neal Crane, fullback, crashes the line after a 70 yard goalward march. E.

The two teams battle during the first quarter without a scoreg the second quarter rolls on, and still no score. The teams leave the field at half time and return again to begin the third quarter.

The two elevens take the field and battle away for two consecutive periods, Latrobe's speed offsetting the Red and Blue's advantage in weight. During the second period with their weight advantage showing and with two breaks in their favor, Jeannette sends Crowell speeding around end for the first score of the game. This tally comes after Latrobe presented a desperate goal line stand that holds the Red and Blue gridders off for three plays. Knetchel adds the extra point on a pass from Elliot. Jeannette relies on running plays to take them down the field, and it is not long until the Barnes' machine has the ball on the 40 yard line. At this point, Green slides off tackle for his 40 yard jaunt to a touchdown. After battling for the remainder of the third period and part of the fourth, the Jeannette eleven strikes for the last time. Again, Green is called upon and slashes off guard from the six yard line to score, and Latrobe suffers the first defeat of the season, 19-0. o LATROBE-.NH6 Across the field from the camera bREENSBURG.0 appears three busses, laden with the Greensburg band and players. From two of the busses emerges the band, numbering 65 and from the other alights first the third team which trots upon the field, then the second, then the first garbed in gold silk pants and brown jersies. As the teams run through signals the bands march up and down the field weaving in and out of intricate forma- tions. The whistle blows, and with Latrobe choosing to kick, Steele sends a beautiful kick sailing to the goal where it is picked up by Merlino. These two evenly matched elevens battle up and down the field, Latrobe gaining on running plays while Greensburg covers territory on Merlino's punts, which were a feat- ure of the game. This type of play continues through three periods and then the ball finally rests in Latrobe's possession on the 45 yard line, about two feet in from the western side line. Only a few minutes remain be- fore the final whistle. At this stage of the game, Captain Steele pulls the trick out of the bag by calling the play to the right instead of to the left. Massena slashes off center, dashes along the side line, and with only the safety man between him and the goal line, executes a perfect stiff arm, and continues on his 55 yard history making dash. Greensburg turns to the air in a frantic en- deavor to score during the remainder of the quarter, but the final score stands 6-0 in favor of the Wildmen, breaking the Brown and White's 17 game winning streak, extending over a period of three years. 0 LATROBE-O .... H7 Again, on their second foreign invasion of tne season, Latrobe is met by a sea of mud, this time at Wilkinsburg. The two captains and the ofiicials meet in the center of the gridiron, the coin is tossed, and the Orange and Black elects to receive the open- ing kickoff. The Bohrenites and the Wildmen battle through the first period, and ten minutes of the second quarter before the stage is set. Crane receives the WILKINSBURG.24 STANLEY GEBICKI End NEAL CRANE Fullback CAPT. FRED STEELE Tackle RUSSEL KARNS Guard THOMAS GALLO Tackle ball on the six yard line and crashes over for his last touchdown of the year. A pass, Moersch to Crane, adds the extra point. On the kickoff, Wilcox takes the ball and after a few plays dives over the line to make the score 7-6, with Latrobe still out in front. The Holy City eleven comes back strong in the second half and scores three touchdowns while holding the invad- ing Orange and Black scoreless. Early in the period Wilke fades back to heave a iong pass to Shelby who races on and across the goal unmolested. The second score comes when dusky Jack Brown, crippled guard of the Bohrenites, intercepts a Latrobe pass and races 60 yards for a score. The fourth quarter tally appears as Wilke intercepts a long pass and romps 45 yards for a touchdown, clinching the victory in the Orange and Black's second defeat of the season. o The game is on . . . a perfect day . . . a huge crowd, cheering wildly HURST' 0 . . . so the stage is set for the last home game of the season. The contest is barelv under way when Ciafre, shifty halfback, receives the ball, cuts to the right and then crosses to the left, racing 67 yards for a touchdown, and Moersch supplies the extra point by placement. Ciafre seems to be the power house of today's eleven, because, for the second time, he cuts over the line and dashes 14 yards for a tally. The third score of the day results when the Clarkmen take possession of the bail to heave a long pass which Moersch snatches from the air on the 35 yard line to carry the remaining distance to the goal. The Wildmen continue their scoring spree, when La- trobe, with the ball on the five yard line, sends Wilt racing around end and over the line standing, for the fourth and final tally of the game, and incidentally, the last score of the season, the Orange and Black com- piete their home schedule without a defeat. LATROBE .26 RAYMOND KUHN THEODORE NIERZINSKI ROBERT WILT End Quarterback Halfback November 26, Thanksgiving Day, the LATROBEH ' 'O camera is p a c k e d preparatory to catching some shots of the Thanks- giving day classic between the Wildmen of Latrobe high School and the Blue Tornado of Derry Township. The bus pulls to a stop at the neighboring school and the team alights on a crusted earth. The camera is transported to the center of the field where the officials, Captain Steele and Captain Mike Corey of the Sullivan- ites stand, with eyes on a coin Hipped into the air. The coin lands, heads up, and Steele chooses to defend the north goal, and to receive the kickoff. Nair sends the pigskin down to the six yard line where the battle begins. The day is cold and passes infrequent. Fin- ally, with two minutes left in the first quarter, Chemski enters the Blue and Gold lineup, fades back and passes to Sampo over the goal, for the onlv score of the game. The two teams struggle throughout the three remain- ing periods, with Wilt and Mike Corey playing bang up ball for their home teams. Neither the Orange and Black nor the Blue and Gold are able to score. The season ends thus, with five wins on the home field and three losses on foreign invasions.

A flash across the Hoor . . . a score , . . and the basketball season is unrlerwav with Coach Wild grooming another quintet to defend the Section IX title for the third consecutive year.' Naming Chris Moersch to lead the team as captain, he moves Fred Steel, the other remaining veteran, to center and pre- pares to bolster his graduation riddled squad. Dan Jones, Charles Massena, and Ralph Keiln work out at forward, while Dave Burns, Tony Pagnanelli, Charles Hough, and Donald Sinkey fill the guard posts. Bill Steele provides the reserve strength at center. In the opening game of the pre-league schedule a highly touted Faculty team falls before the varsity, 57-19. The proteges of Coal Wild score basket after basket as the Teachers throw numerous shots from the center of the floor, but few of their efforts count. Meeting their first scholastic opponents of the season at Derry Township, the Wildmen eke out a 29-25 vic- Page Eighty-two tory over the Tornado to score the second win of the season. With the score tied late in the fourth quarter Moersch and Massena drop in baskets in rapid suc- cession to bring Latrobe to the fore. Mustering one of the strongest graduate teams in the history of the school, Coach Joe Lohr develops a combination which nearly proves a snag in the sched- ule as the Latrobeans stage an up-hill fight to Win 25-21. McCormick frequently puts the graduates out in front, but Massena and Moersch pull Latrobe from the rut with field goals which decide the game. Re- turning to scholastic competition, the Orange and Black following a slow opening half, rain shot after shot upon the basket to down Uniontown 29-15. Pagnanelli continually keeps the defense close as he registers fre- quently from side court. Another deadlock exists in a return game with the Derry Township quintet, when, in the fourth quarter Pagnanelli dribbles down the side and slips in a quick shot to break a 23-23 deadlock and win the game for the Latrobeans. The score is tied three times pre- viously. Prying the lid off the league schedule, Latrobe wins a hard fought game 26-23, from a persistent Norwin quintet. In the clos- ing seconds of the game with the Orange and Slack leading 23-21, Anderson slides in a field goal making the count 23-22 in favor of Norwin. Moersch produces a score and then Steele relieves the tension with a tally making the score 26-23 as the bell sounds. Paced by Moersch and Massena, Latrobe wins an easy victory over the Mount Pleasant five 42-13. O'Shensky, Ramsay scoring ace, garners seven points but these tallies fail to offset the score of the locals. Playing only mediocre ball during the first half, in a contest against Scottdale, the Orange and Black comes back in the third quarter with a rally that nets them eight points in less than a minute and a half of play. Moersch and Pagnanelli each score once while Massena tallies twice to give Latrobe a lead which is never threatened during the remainder of the game. With the count standing 39-24 in favor of the Wildmen the bell ending the game sounds. After holding the lead throughout the gieater part of two quarters, Jeannette falters in the third while Latrobe steps to the fore to capture the fray 33-18. Moersch keeps the locals moving by scoring 11 points during the evening. As a diversion from league competition, the Wildmen take the California Junior Varsity to the tune of 30-23. The count is tied numerous times during the encounter on shots by Kovacs, stellar Vulcan forward, but Moersch and Jones score in rapid succession near the close of the game to defeat the California Jayvees. Holding their oppon- ents to the lowest score of the season, Latrobe registers a 35-5 victory over the Blairsville quintet. The Indiana Countians open strongly in the first quarter scoring four points, but fail to score again until the final canto when Calibrese hits the hoop on a free throw. Marking up 13 points, Chris Moersch again takes command of the league scoring. In the hardest fought game of the year, Latrobe drops its final first half league contest to Greensburg 24-22. The Brown and White draws first blood on a tally by E. Anderson which is soon tied on a score by Steele. With the Golden Lions leading 22-20 late in the fourth quarter, Pagnanelli ties up the game on a corner shot. However, a few seconds later, Zyvith brings the County Seaters out of the hole on a one handed shot from the foul circle. Suffering a scoring slump, Latrobe drops their second league encounter in a week to Norwin 27-23. Dave Burns, dimin- itive guard, performs outstandingly for the Latrobeans, scoring 12 points, and onnumerous occasions slips into the opponent's territory to break up plays. Ridl is strong on the offensive for the lrwinites with nine points. Dropping 16 field goals and four fouls, Latrobe's varsity five downs the Scottdale Scotties 36-20 in a hard fought game. Hitting the hoop seven times from the field and twice from the free throw line, Chris Moersch amasses a total of 16 points, the largest single game total of the year. After trailing Jeannette for three periods, Latrobe finally forges ahead on a shot by Massena. With the score standing 12-11 in favor of Jeannette, Massena lets fly with a long shot to make the score 13-11 on the Orange side of the ledger. The Wildmen finally lead 20-13 at the sound of the closing bell. On their long road trip of the year, THE VARSITY OPENS UP Top-Burris leaps desperately to intercept a pass to E.

'Taking an early lead which they never relinquished, Latrobe downs the Blairsville quintet 29-21. The Orange and Black holds the visitors scoreless in the iirst quarter While they themselves mark up 12 points. ln the second period the Graham coached live outscores the locals to advance within f S S , . a ew points of the Wild- men. In one of the most thrilling games ever Wit- ncssed on a high school court, Greensburg defeats the Orange and Black for the second time bv the count of 39-25. Latrobe marches Within three points of the Lloldeii Lions at half time, but the County Seaters put on the steam in the last stanza to set the Wildcats back in their final contest and definitely put Norvvin in as Section IX champions. Equipment is packed, suits are cleaned, and an- other basketball scason passes into history as Mr. Funk presents seven varsity players with letters in the usual assembly ceremony. Those receiving awards include Captain Chris Moersch, Section IX scoring leader for the second consecutive year, Fred Steele.

Nlapel. .FDR THE JUNIOR VARSITY It's 7:15 again and the Junior Varsity dribbles the fioor to provide a preliminary to the onto main event of the evening. Under the supervision of their newly acquired coach, Mr. B. M. Riley, the pros- pective varsity basketeers weather a list of nine con- tests suffering but three reverses. During a four game preliminary schedule, Coach Riley selects Stahl and Yanarella as forwards, William Steele, centerg Keim and Sinkey as guards, with Pagnanelli, Mapel, and Col- egrande as alternates. With but six regular varsity pvixfoirners assigned posts on the squad, Coach Wild frequently markets for reserves in the Jayvee ranks. Sinkey, Keim, Stahl, Ballantyne, and Steele all see action during the Section IX scramble. In their first engagement with foreign competition the Orange and Black five earns at 25 to 23 decision over the Lutheran team. In a belated rally the vis- itors almost overcome the Jayvee's seven point half time advantage. Coach Riley's understudies weather the second game of the season successfully as the cham- pion senior class team comes out on the short end of a 16 to 7 score. Exceptional defensive strategy dis- played by both outlits keeps the score down. In an un- usual scoring spree that predominates the entire game, the Jayvees pile up a comfortable advantage as they trim the Presbyterian quintet to the tune of 47 to 13. Ilonald Sinkey distinguishes himself in the next game by scoring 10 points to provide the main drive for a 23 to 14 win over the Holy Family squad. Destined to suffer their first setback of the seas-in, the Junior Varsity meets their match in a preliminary to the La- trobe-Jeannette sectional dash. The Ravens, a team composed of former high school basketeers, easily de- feat their comparatively diminutive opponents 45 to 20. Once more displaying brilliant offensive strength, the locals hand Greensburg's Junior Varsity their first defeat of the season as they score from all angles of the floor to win 36-18. Continuing their scoring splurge, the Jayvees hand a shifty Junior class five a crushing blow as they win 39 to 14. Fate tags their heels during the final two games of their schedule as they lose to the Latrobe Bakers and an avengeful Greensburg outfit. A desperate final half rally proves ineffective as the Orange and Black fails to overcome Greensburg's eight point half time lead, and the Brown and White wins 22 to 18. Upon completion of a successful season, records are compiled. Francis Yanarella, forward, stands at the peak of the scoring column with 77 points to his credit. The entire team garners a total of 245 points as com- pared with their opponent's 198. The curtain falls on one more Jayvee schedule and another group of eager underclassmen are groomed for future varsity service. Top-Yanarella succeeds in batting down a shot in the Greensburg game and Keim fol- lows in. Bottom-W. Steele eludes McNulty and shoots a one hand shot after receiving a pass from Sinkey.

PROVIDES ACTION FOR ALL... Again the senior girls step to the fore, ' claiming top honors in the annual class basketball competition. The senior sextet lost but one game throughout the campaign, and that by the slight score of 4-0. The girls of the sen- ior class, Bendl, Berkmyre, Cute, Saxman, Frye, and Myers, claim victories of 14-11 and 16--12 over the juniors and two contests from the soph- omores, 17-3 and 11-6. They also hold two wins over the freshmen by counts of 12-0 and 38-6. The junior girls rest in second place at the end of the season with ive wins and two losses, both of which came at the hands of the seniors. Standing in third place are the sophomores with two wins, while the freshmen rest in last place without a single victory on their slate. Gaining revenge for their defeat in the class schedule, the junior home room of 213 defeated the runners-up from 212 by the score of 17-6 to win home room honors. Senior girls from 101 claim the laurels for the senior division, while 201 carried off the sophomore title. Room 5 cap- tured the championship of the freshman home rooms to close a busy schedule of intra-mural basketball.

Prospective performers select the field in which they are best fitted and spend long hours bettering their form. After school hours the gym fairly hums with activity as the small army of candidates attempts to improve its skill. Upon witnessing various performances, Mr. Snyder selects representatives from each division to comprise Latrobe High School's gymnastic team. The local squad, although boasi ing but one letter- nian, manages to place second in the annual W. P. I. A. L. meet held in Pittsburgh, March 18. Scoring 409.9 points, Latrobe trails Sewickley High School's representatives who roll up a score of 7922. Most of the Orange and Black's points come in the side horse competition, Charles Sartoris, Roger Maher, and Henry Grant placing second, third, and fourth respectively in this division. Philip Dibb captures fourth place in the lndian club contest, narrowly missing the oppor- tunity to represent the W. P. I. A. L. in the regional meet. Representing the school for the first time on the rings, Charles Sartoris raises the score by taking fourth place in that division. Other gymnasts who performed at the meet include Raymond Mull, William Newman, Floyd Keim, and William McCafferty. Those winning honors in the W. P. I. A. L. meet travel to Slippery Rock on March 27 to participate in regional competition. Displaying unusual form, Charles Sartoris wins first place honors in the side horse division. Tying for fifth place in the same con- test, Roger Maher qualifies for the Hnal meet at Penn- sylvania State College. Extensive training marks the week prior to the all important state meet. The two Orange and Black par- ticipants travel to State College on April 3 to repre- sent Latrobe in the competition. When the scores are tallied the judges award Charles Sartoris a second place and Roger Maher a sixth for their work on the side hourse. THE GYM TEAM First Flow-P. Pattersow W Mc Cafferty, P. Dibble.
