No longer do boys and girls of high school age study only book learning in the same room where their smaller brothers and sisters are master- ing the alphabet, or line up in rows to spell as their chief extra-curricular ac- tivity. A new concept-that of the stud- ent as an individual requiring individual consideration-has brought a sharp con- trast in educational methods and prac- tices between the school of 1890 and its modern successor. ' In The Classroom From the library and academic classes to the shops and the home economics laboratory, the student cultivates those ideas which promote good citizenship and intelligent living and develops habits and skills to ai him in his chosen profession. V ' With Student Activities Club and organization activities extend the field of regular class work, offering broader social contacts and additional knowledge. Speaking contests, plays, music, publications-all give opportunity for self-expression in the field best suit- ed to the individual's ability and interest. ' Among The Athletes Football, basketball and track, in addi- tion to a host of minor sports, bring the advantages of wholesome competition to the athlete and spectator of the present generation. The competitor develops physically, but he also masters the vir- tues of sportsmanship, courtesy, honesty, tolerance and cooperation.

As they come to order under President H. A. Stewart, we visit this civic-minded group to gain an idea of the kind of behind-scenes activity responsible for the present high standards of the school. After Miss Dorothy Harman records the names of the members present and reads the minutes of the pre- ceding meeting, Mr. William McCullough opens the dis- cussion of business problems by recommending that the halls of the high school be painted after having been cleaned. Following his report, Mrs. Ruth B. Robb calls attention to cleaning, sterlizing and pressing of caps and gowns, with Dr. S. W. Nealon also recommending that they be renovated. Mr. W, H. Flickinger, serving on the finance com- mittee, suggests that sufficient money be placed in the various sinking funds to take care of bonds and interests for the year, while Dr. Thomas St. Clair continues the discussion with a report of insurance rates. Mr. George F. Brown presents the financial report of the football season. Although not an official member of the board, Mr. John G. Hulton, superintendent, attends the meet- ing and presents suggestions for improving vocational COl11'S9S. Thus another meeting of the directors draws to a close, with the result of their endeavor-an excellent school system for the youth of Latrobe.

It is a far cry from the days of the school master with birch rod in hand, strictly guiding unruly boys through a meager edu- cation of the three R's to the instruction of today, where the teacher acts as both guide and friend in the teaching of sub- jects ranging from agriculture to public speaking. As we look into the class rooms of Latrobe High School we find the faculty working side by side with the student, dir- ecting him through four years of study, always with emphasis on the individual, his needs and capacities. To help prepare the student to meet vital problems of today, social science teachers give the background and guidance essential for intelligent judgment. The freshman learns the first principles of government as Mr. R. V. Wild discusses civics questions, or has his first introduction to social prob- lems as Miss Jean Dibb describes the evils of the slums. Mr. H. E. Hoerr, guiding the sophomore world history student, out- lines on the blackboard the causes of thc World War, while Mr. G. D. Rise tells his American history students of an amusing incident in the life of Andrew Jackson. In his problems of democracy classes Mr. J. R. Beatty explains labor and government rela- tions as unsolved modern problems. Turn- ing to another phase of modern education, we watch Mr. H. I. Snyder demonstrating how to do a difficult turn to a group of gyrnnasts, and observe Miss Kathryn Don- nelly as she explains the triangle formation to some girls in one of her gym classes. Listening to externporaneous speakers present theiir conception of the Movie Problem under the direction of Miss Mar- tha Osborneg sitting quietly at the back of the auditorium as Miss Katherine Alcorn helps a young dramatist to master his role: or hearing Miss Mabel Lindner interpret a poem for the choral reader, we realize the advantages to be gained from public speak- ing as taught by these teachers of the Eng- lish department. Behind the work of the publications staff members is the guiding 1 The dunno in the school of long ago wistfully regrets an unstudied lesson. hand of Mr. H. D. Benford, who graciously lends much time in his capacity as publica- tions adviser. We laugh with students of a senior English class at Mr. M. C. Dovey's humorous interpretation of Shakespeare, listen to Miss Irene Metz's helpful criticism of an oral reportg and we catch the signifi- cance of Mr. M. E. Rizzo's explanation of the Mercy Speech to a group of Industrial boys. To compete our tour of the language department, we visit the foreign language classes. Miss Clare Gibson greets us with a cheerful Bonjour , while Miss Adeline Reeping and her Latin students carry us back to the days of Julius Caesar. - Looking through the door of Room 208 we see a group of eager faces intently watching Miss Katherine Netzlof project a band of rainbow colors on the wall with a glass prism, or perhaps Miss Jeannette Dahlstrom is explaining to some wide-eyed freshmen the theory of electricity. The mounted specimens of leaves or butterflies of the biology laboratory attract our at- tention as Miss Virginia Daniels explains how students constructed them. In the sen- ior science department, we find Mr. L. W. Himes explaining ionization to future chemists, or we join attentive young phy- sicists and marvel with them as Mr. S. G. Rummel magnetizes an iron rod by strik- ing it with a hammer. Satisfied with a glimpse into the scien- tific world, we next visit the mathematics classes. Here we find Miss Lyda Hamilton explaining the procedure of solving an algebra statement, or Miss Mary Louise McBride going to the aid of a freshman puzzling over a factoring problem. We stand surprised as Miss Florence Breeton illustrates the rapid addition of columns of figures and agree with Miss Lenore Whiting that geometry is really an interest- ing subject. After visitng class rooms of general edu- cation, we find ourselves in the west cor- ridor with a group of young artists who are . -4-:: 1 l This bean shooter found his mark, un- fortunately. .Personalized Instruction Enables The Faculty To Meet Students' Individual Differences discussing the annual art show with Miss Mary Himler, their art instructor, Whose efforts made the exhibit possible. While in the fine arts department, we pause for a few moments to hear a group of instru- mentalists master a selection under Mr. F. A. Ringrose's guidance. With a keen interest we anticipate our trip to the rooms which house the spec- ialized courses. And the incessant tapping of typewriters and the clicking of adding machines from 213 tells us that we are in the commercial department. Bending over a typewriter, Miss Elsie Garlow illustrates the method of cleaning the machine. In shorthand class we see Miss Blanche Quick dictating words which send pencils racing over notebooks. Long columns of neatly written numbers fill page after page as Mr. P. T. Gaudino helps a bookkeeper balance his worksheet. Miss Laura Shallenberger also stresses neatness and accuracy in her spelling and writing classes. Going into the advanced commercial classes, we watch future stenographers learning practical office management under Mr. H. E. Stover, or future salesmen planning with Mr. C. E, McDougall their model grocery store. Our tour of the commercial department completed, we turn to the shops. Our first introduction into the industrial arts depart- ment is in the Fourth Ward shop where we find Mr. C. H. Thompson teaching fresh- men boys the fundamentals of handcraft. Then in the new, brightly lighted shops of the high school, we stand in the sweet- smelling woodshop where Mr. F. C. Bert inspects the work of the young carpenters, or perhaps we step into a room full of .515 whirring machines to see Mr. H. G. Knier explaining the operation of a drill press. In a large, pleasant room filled with high 'lesks we find Mr. F. A. Halsall, co-ordinator of industrial education, or Mr. J. F. Shay helping a student draftsman to complete a blue print, while in the electric shop we puzzle over a board wired by one of the electricians under Mr. Elmer Schulte. Still visiting the boys' department, we look about a room bordered by boxed plants to see Mr Jack Clinch sharing interests of scientific farming with a group of boys in overalls. Leaving the boys, we enter the home eco- nomics cottage to find Miss Emily Vosburg helping a seamstress to lay a pattern and Mrs. Katherine Stumbaugh teaching an interested group how to make a pretty jewel case from an empty cigar box. In the cooking department, Miss Marcella Gregory helps girls to master the art of changing left-overs into appetizing dishes. Our journey of the class room complete, we make our way towards the front en- trance to leave. In the hall Mr. Charles Lynch is busily supervising the cleaning of the steps, and from Mr. M. N. Funk's oflice we hear the click of Miss Ruth Himler's typewriter as she makes out a schedule card As we walk down the steps to the entrance, we stop to reflect for a moment on what We have witnessed-how fortunate we are to live in an age when teacher and student collaborate in bringing about the develop- ment of the individual. Instead of the stinging blows of the birch rod at failure to understand a problem, we see the hand of encouragement, beckoning on to goals of higher understanding and usefulness Q 4? 'N ,. 'Q uf FOUR YEARS CF PROGRESS.. With his treasured hand- book clutched in his fist and a shy look in his eye, today's senior entered a new life as he in- augurated his high school career. To him the building seemed immense-long corridors with door after door on each side. His first few weeks were quite miserable as joking upper- classmen sent him off at four o'clock to hunt vainly for 313. He realized that he was act- ually green and from that realization re- solved to learn his whereabouts in Latrobe High School at any cost. As time went on, the freshman gradually changed. He knew his schedule perfectly and followed his daily rou- tine with the ease of a senior. Moreover, he began rubbing shoulders with upperclassmen as he worked with them in clubs, plays, con- tests, assemblies and other activities in which he participated. He even experienced moments of extreme pride as upperclassmen occasion- ally begged him for a copy of his homework. Finally the verdent freshman lost his self- consciousness and began conversing freely with fellow schoolmates. As the year ended, the freshman felt satisfied that he had ac- complished at least one major objective-he had become acquainted. In October, 1937, yester- day's frcshrnan entered for the second time the now familiar portals of Lafrsbe High School, but this time into a remodeled building with an outlook for greater opportun.ty and efficiency in studies. He openrd his books with increased zeal-setting high scholastic ideals for his sophomore year. He found that his course of study opencd ngw worlds of facts and ideas into which he had never before ventured: hc saw in the intricate structure of a flower more than first meets the eyeg he met and rccogn Zed the human side of literature as he read Silas Marnerg hz broadn d out from a preliminary study of social science to the history of the worldg x's and y's become part of his conversation as he explored higher mathematicsg and in the shops, he experienced 'the satisfaction of exprcsslng his ability. As extra-curr.cular activitics and contests began to occupy part of his time, he discovered that l'.is Work in the classroom was well spent. Hc now attacked problems with a certainty and accuracy that d.d 'nuch to insure success. He knew that from his studies he had begun to fill his destined place in the world about him.

The Class of 1940 Honors the Memory of. .. KZ M Miss Anna Mabel Gibson and Mr. Eldridge M. Stumbaugh, whose passing terminated long years of service and loyalty to Latrobe High School and a generation of its students, best remembered for the personal friendships, in- spiring ideals and humane tolerance that grew from their classrooms. Earl Wllliams Mllarred Wright Michael Yandrick M Z ary acur Joseph Zink To live again in minds made better by their presence MISS GIBSON MR. STUNIEAUGH r l25l Names From 1940 Make The Headlines . History is the lives of famous men, said Carlyle. Likewise, the history of this year's graduating class is the story of the achieve- ment of its individual members. For instance, do your remember?-Four whole years ago, the first freshman news of importance was the election of class officers. These included George Mickey as president, assisted by Bar- bara St. Clair, vice president: John Hulton, treasurerg Betty Andora, Student Council re- presentativeg and Elaine Geary, secretary. Early in the year, Ralph Keim, Henry Giobbi and Joseph Zink began their athletic careers, while later Joseph Pagnanelli and William Ballantyne started their sports participation on the basketball court. Soon the class be- came acquainted with forensic contests as Barbara St. Clair won class honors in the Kiwanis Extemporaneous Contest. As the class moved into its sophomore year, more students were destined to become known by their achievements. Again, the election of class officers first took the spotlight. John Campbell assumed the office of pres- ident with Allen Weiss, vice presidentg John Murray, secretaryg Paul Eiseman, treasurerg and George Mickey, Student Council represen- tative. Stepping into the dramatic limelight, Barbara St. Clair acted as student director of the all-school play, The Wedding. Behind the scenes, Robert Reyburn and Joseph Brody began their services as stage managers. For his extemporaneous discussion of Flood Con- trol, Allen Weiss captured class honors, and Nancy Stader received first place in poetry reading for her recitation, Oh Captain, My Captain. With more opportunities for recognition of- fering themselves during the junior year, the names of members of the class of 1940 begun to be seen more and more frequently on the front page of the High Post. Among the first to appear were those of John Truxal, Rudolph Melichar, Ann Tomashosky, Herman Lancianese and Christina David as class of- ficers. In t'Seven Sisters, Paul Eiseman took the lead, while later in the year, in the junior class play, Barbara McElroy, Richard De- Courtney, Velma Gardner and John Campbell enacted leading roles in Something For Noth- ing. In forensics, Barbara St. Clair topped the extemporaneous contest in the class, while i26l John Hulton and Allen Weiss made up a team of the debating squad. On the gridiron, gym- nasium floor and cinder track, Henry Giobbi, Ralph Keim, William Ballantyne and Joseph Pagnanelli soon made a name for themselves. By travelling to the All-State Orchestra at Johnstown Rudolph Melichar and Patty Wright gained recognition as musicians. In the agriculture department, Joseph Uhrin re- ceived the highest state award for excellence in the field of agriculture, that of Keystone Farmer. Edna Peffer demonstrated her writing ability by winning the D. A. R. Es- say Contest. Towards the end of the year, juniors eagerly awaited results of the elec- tion of new members to the National Honor Society. Announcement revealed that Mildred Wright, Barbara St. Clair, Edna Peffer, Ida Wigfield, Martha Neighly, Elizabeth Stroth- er, Paul Eiseman, Allen Weiss and John Hul- ton had received the honor. The last opportunity to established their names in Latrobe High School's hall of fame came to the members of the class of 1940 as they entered their final year. To start the ball rolling, Joseph Pagnanelli, William Bal- lantynie, Catherine Reliick, Katherine Krall and Mary Godish assumed their duties as class officers. Soon afterwards Christina David was elected president of the Student Council, and Allen Weiss took his place as president of the National Honor Society. In the all-class play, Big Hearted Herbert, Barbara McElroy, Allen Weiss and John Boer- io played leading roles. In the forensic field, Allen Weiss captured first place in the Rotary Oratorical Contest and Janice Arisman and Barbara McElroy represented their class in the extemporaneous finals, speaking on The Movie Problem. Barbara took class honors as she emerged victorious. In the final for- ensic activity of the class of 1940, Robert Chorpenning, Allen Weiss, Patty Wright and Nancy Stader debated before the Civic Club on the subject, Resolved: The government should own and operate the railroads. The negative team, Allen and Robert, took the prize. Thus, through individual achievement in all school functions-scholastics, forensics, athletics, dramatics and many others-was built a lasting history of the class of 1940. The Latrobean presents the outstanding seniors as se- lected by the class of 1940. Top: ALLEN WEISS, selected for his achievement in the realm of forensics . . . .

Garlow. As the first bell clanged, opening the new school year, the junior stepped jauntily forward with the senior, finally attaining the distinction of an upperclassman. Elect- ing Paul Luttner to preside over his class. he chose Theodore Guzik as vice president, Sophia Digenis as secretary, Richard Mor- ley as treasurer and Ann Johnston as Student Council representative to be re- sponsible for the varied activities of the coming year. Launching forward with a will to suc- ceed and with thoughts of securing a place for himself as a senior, the junior mused as he read the first High Post, written under Mary Eleanor Visconti, editor-ire chief, and Kathryn Ann Edwars, feature editor. Turning to the sports page he ad- mired the layout completed by another fel- low classmate, Vincent Quatrini. When students donned costumes for a night of revelry in the gym on Hallowe'en, the junior was there to see that his adver- tising had been successful. He saw his fellow students gain honors when the foot- ball season closed with Andrew Carbonara, Louis Bendl, Regis Felbaum, William Res- nic, Joseph Battaglia and Frank Gondos receiving letters. Not to be outdone in other extra-curricular activities, the junior saw Dorothy Ondriezek win the tennis championship, while he watched DeWitt Kirk and William McGuire play their parts in the all-class play, Big Hearted Herbertf I2 s e I p ion before selecting The I Skull for the class play X Returning to his work with renewed vigor after Christmas vacation, the junior began preparations for mid-term examinations and rejoiced to find that his class had brok- en all records with the percentage of its members on the second quarter honor roll. After a joyous fling at the Leap Year Hop in the gym which he had decorated with hearts and streamers, the junior plunged headlong into the thick of activities. Working' diligently, he produced The Skull in the weird setting of a haunted church. The cast, with Julia McMahon and William Worthing as leads, also included Edward Reintgen as the terrifying Skull and Jack Monroe as a detective. Tom No- vak, Dorothy Ondriezek, Hannah Frankel, Vincent Quatrini, Richard Humes and Wil- liam McGuire completed the cast and added complications to the story. Turning his attention towards the Cx- iemporaneous contest, he delivered his speech on The Movie Problem, with Lor- raine Barnett and Gaile Chorpenning re- presenting him in the finals. The Prom committee, under chairmen Theodore Guzik, Marie Harman, Ann Doherty, Kathryn Ann Edwards and June Brown, planned a gala farewell party to the seniors. By the time Moving-Up Day has arrived, the junior feels well qualified to take his place as a stately senior, with his record of participation and accomplishment behind him.

How- ever, despite his love for fun, he found time for work and spent one home room period electing officers to guide his ac- tivities. Choosing Clara Melichar to act as president and Catherine Strickler as vice president, the sophomore selected Ralph Graham as class secretary, Jean Townsend as treasurer, and William Barron as Stud- ent Council representative. Then, buying a football season ticket, he raced out to the athletic field each Sat- urday afternoon for the game, cheering his fellow classmates, Nevin Massena and Frank Fyalkowsky, between nibbles on a bar bought from Henry Seremet, vice pres- ident of the Student Council. Spending pleasant evenings after school, he and his classmates, under Nancy Showalter, decor- ated the gym and then in costume, he spent a night jitterbugging among hobgoblins, Leaving his fun for a moment, he joined in E311 the applause after the reading of the high honor roll in assembly when Frances Bod- ner, Myron Digenis, John Hugus, Jean Moore, Dorothy Steiner and Marjorie Houck gained high honor recognition for scholastic attainment. Others among them included William Barron, Harry Digenis, Clara Melichar, Monty Montjar, Theda Shawley and Agnes Washinko. When the curtains opened on Big Heart- ed Herbert, the sophomore beamed with pride to see Jane Mather and Betty Lou Tosh appear. After the gay young student had spent a pleasant vacation at Christmas, he returned to spend Tuesday and Friday evenings watching John Pagnanelli, Frank Fyalkowsky, Carl Adams and Harry Fraunholtz play basketball on the varsity squad. At the prospect of more fun at :J Leap Year dance, the sophomore under Frances Bodner enthusiastically launched an advertising campaign, bidding girls to escort boys to the party. Thus the sopho- more wound up another year of activity and fun to mark two years of progress. .-H' Y' 'Q 2 xr A Jen 69 QA x I - I. -5721 gn.

Caught in the chaos of the first few days of his high school career, the freshman spent several weeks adjusting himself to his new curricula and surroundings. After meeting new friends among class- mates he spent a home room period elect- ing officers to guide him through the first year. For president he chose Howard Weiss. Virginia Derek, as secretary, Robert Bos- sart, treasurer, and Sally Bair, Student Council representative, were elected as Howard's aides. W i t h h i s class or- ganized, the freshman marked his first ac- , ...,....,... A f ...J complishment when he prepared seasonal programs and invitations for the Pumpkin Parade , and he really felt proud when Dick Moersch and Anthony Schober ran out on the field with the football squad. He also proudly watched Robert Nessler and Jacqueline Leonhardt play in t'Big Hearted Herbert. As he folded his last High Post, recorder of his achievements, the freshman smiled as he thought, l've made one year of prog- ress. i351 E.a4.E --ln 7 'Sian FIRST FIOW: McCormick, McCracken, Laposky, Leonhardt, M a i I e y, Maiers, Lattanzio, McElroy, Mc- Curdy, Lashinski, Loughner.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Senior members of the National Honor Society prepare to induct new initiates. Left to right, Ida Wigfield, Elizabeth Strath- er, Edna Peffer, Mildred Wright, Allen Weiss, John Hutton, Paul Eiseman and Martha Neighly f, y,Jf . f sf I . . Honor Society Fosters Achievement And Recognizes Ability A hush falls over the auditorium as a pro- cession of outstanding students slowly marches to a torch-lit stage. The entire student body quietly awaits the National Honor Society initiation in which juniors and seniors who have demonstrated Scholarship, Leadership, Character, and Service will be claimed by the society. As the president, Allen Weiss, garbed in a brilliant red cap and gown, mounts the steps of the dais to preside over the initiation, Mar- tha Neighly as Character in a white robe takes her place at his side. Garbed in kingly color of royal purple, John Hulton as Leadership takes his place, while Edna Jane Peffer ap- pears in a golden robe to represent Scholarship. In a red, white, and blue costume, Patty Wright signifies Service in all its glory. Fol- lowing the last of the four principles, Paul Eiseman bears his torch of Knowledge with which to light the worldg and Ida Wigfield, the flag. Elizabeth Strother as warden con- ducts the new initiates, composed of approxi- mately 10 percent of the graduating class and 5 percent of the junior class. The music dies away as the initiation cere- mony begins with a speech by the president. As the other older members deliver their mes- sages to the initiates, a silence pervades the auditorium while underclassmen in the audi- ence resolve that the goal of their high school career is membership in this society. To create ambition among the students has always been an outstanding value of the National Honor E411 Society, for it holds out this goal for the indi- vidual who develops in himself scholarship, leadership, character, and service. As the ceremony draws to a close, the new members receive the emblems proclaiming their achievement. Because that emblem re- presents four years of excellent scholarship in all curricular activities, of leadership in clu , classes, and home rooms, of service in the music department, journalism or organiza- tions, and an excellent character, the seniors may proudly step into the wide, wide world. The juniors will form the nucleus for next year's group. Just as every year the small group of jun- iors carries on the work of the society, so did they this past year. Shortly after the begin- ning of the school term, the eight members met with their adviser, Mr. James R. Beatty, to elect officers. Choosing Allen Weiss as president and Edna Jane Peffer as vice-pres- ident, they also elected Ida Wigfield as secre- tary and Patty Wright to represent them on the Student Council. As is the established precedent, the mem- bers met to decorate a float for the annual Armistice Day parade. With a representation of four courses of study, Industrial, College Preparatory, Commercial and Agricultural, presided over by Education, the theme this year stressed the importance of education to American Life. The falling of the curtain on the impres- sive initiation ceremony closed this year's ac- tivities of the Latrobe High School National Honor Society. ' ' W i ' 'T'?!'F T af?'EilI '11 Z.. 1 '.,Z..ss.::4BEJ.'-Z' Allen Weiss as Big Hearted Herbert flatly refuses the re- quest of DeWitt Kirk and Rub- ert Nessler as Marion Sweeney, Jane Mather and Barbara Me- Elroy plead the boys' cause. lf you want advice, see 'Big Hearted Herbert ' declared the posters and news broadcasters as December 5 and the all-class play approached. With the opening of the curtain, the audience soon discovered that advice from the sage, Herbert Kalness, played by Allen Weiss, might be anything but trustworthy as irritations frayed his golden disposition. The chattering of his wife Elizabeth, enacted by Barbara Mc- Elroy, the desires of DeWitt Kirk as Jun- ior to go to college, and the thoughtlessness of Robert Nessler as Bob the family baby all combined to wreck the peace of Herberts home. Complexities really entered his life with the appearance of Betty Lou Tosh, Jane Mather and John Boerio, as Aunty Amy, his daughter Alice, and Alice's fiance, An- drew Goodrich. Havoc reigned in the sec- ond act as Herbert let loose and told every- body from Mr and Mrs. Goodrich, played by James Bowman and Helen Geary, to the Irish maid, Marion Sweeney, what he thought of them. In the final act the fam- ily turned Herbert's frankness back upon him, using his guests, William McGuire and Jacqueline Leonhardt, as the weapons. Miss Katherine Alcorn directed the production and Ida Wigfield assumed the duties of student director. Soon after the all-class play preparations began for the Christmas pageant presented by the problems of democracy classes under the direction of Mr. James R. Beatty. Prior to this production, the problems of demo- cracy classes also enacted a pageant as part of the community observance of Armis- tice Day. Members of the music department assisted in both these productions under the direction of Mr. F. A. Ringrose. The or- chestra played for the former, and Chorus II provided background music for the latter. By mid-Februray weird posters adorned hall and class rooms announcing the com- E421 DRAMATIC EPISODES . .. ing of The Skull -the junior class play, and then on March 8 the audience gathered to experience the chills of a mystery. Wild moanings and gruesome sound effects pro- vided the setting when Hannah Frankel, as Mary Harris, and Julia McMahon, as Dorothy Merril, faced the mystery. Anna Mason's ghost, played by Dorothy Ondrie- zek, glided across the stage, and the appear- ance of Jack Monroe as Professor Vorhees, William Worthing as Jerry Bromwells, and Vincent Quatrini as the mad Dr. Tolman further entangled the plot. Thomas Novak, as Bob Demarest, added the comely touch, while Richard I-fumes' portrayal of the hunchback, Harry Alsing, provided the bait for the trap. A flash of a gun, a confes- sion by Dr. Tolman, and Edward Reint- gen as Captain Allenby of Scotland Yard was revealed as The Skull. Francis Hough worked as student director under the fac- culty guidance of Miss Katherine Alcorn. Behind the scenes three groups, the stage managers, the ushers and the make-up corn- mittee, helped to make the dramatic season a success. Under the leadership of Fred Strickler, head stage manager, Joseph Brody, Robert Reyburn, Harry Ryan, Jos- eph Bodner and John Marcinko pulled the curtain, dimmed the lights, and tended to the thousand-and-one jobs that mean a fin- ishcd production. Under Miss Clare Gib- son the make-up committee, composed of Lenore Zizzi, Dorothy Sessi, Alice Davis, Eleanor Comp, Cliffton McIntyre, Betty Davis, Harry Frye, Clara Melichar, Sarah Hugus and Dolores Bossart, supplied the powder and grease paint so necessary to effective characterization. The ushers und- er the direction of Miss Catherine Netzlof, with Jean Davis as head usher, graciously found seats for the audiences that entered tions as well as other school and commun- the audftorium for the dramatic produc- ity events. ,W fn Av P' 1 am , Q Q5- xx x, f Aff-P t , 15, VJ.

As past members of Quill and Scroll light their candles at these aims of journalism, the senior initi- ate to the Thomas M. Whiteman chapter of the society feels that here is the culimination of three years of journalistic endeavor-member- ship in a body of fellow-workers who have also gone through their year of preparation, to take their turn in publishing the Latrobean and High Post. As the first step, the aspiring journalist enrolled in Mr. Benford's Journalism I class. There, in room 118 every seventh period, he labored over the technicalities of headline writing-Whether a G head or an H would suit a minor story, better than a D. He struggled to include all of the five w's -who, What, where, when and why-in the lead. Or per- haps his face brightened with inspiration as he hit upon a novel idea for a feature story that might be good enough to be published in the next issue of the High Post. By the end of the year, he felt prepared to take his place on the High Post staff the next year. As a junior, he became practically a jack of all trades, doing duty ranging from errand boy to feature writer. On receiving his first yellow assignment slip, Kiwanis story-feat- ure-160 words-due Thursday, he set out to collect necessary information with elation, his first qualms beginning only when he hand- ed in the finished work for the editor's in- spection. But as a senior now, the newness had gone, and he began work experienced in the ways of journalism. He turned out a sports feature for Vincent Quatrini with hardly a scratched- -.- V r...-...W A ...iv-.,,, L ' ,.. , li , 4 E44l out phrase, or helped Mary Eleanor Visconii and Allen Weiss read proof. On Friday after- noons, he Went with John Monroe and James Depree to bring back the High Posts fresh from the Bulletin printers. In a few spare moments, he stopped to read exchanges hung by Catherine Relick, Lenore Koskl, Luella Carns and Helen Godish. He laughed with Kathryn Anne Edwards, Jean Mazero and Gail Gibson over a joke in Ann Doherty's Candid Glancesf' Often after having greeted adver- tisers Jack Campbell and Richard De Court- ney as they returned to report to Sylvia Fra- del, he identified a Latrobean picture for Ann Murphy and Edna Peffer. He took some copy for John Hulton to typists Anna Cicconi, Lois Miller, Ida Wigfield, Rose Colagrande and Frances Grube. With Ralph Kloock he hung an award in the staff room under the direction of Helen Lechner, Evelyn McCormick and Clarinda DeVitt. Dorothy Murray and Ruth Nickels also offered suggestions. He watched Betty Andora, Mary Jo Korona, Ethel Stewart and Mary D'Aniello prepare to visit prospec- tive advertisers and noticed how Jane Win- lilosky and Dorothy Sessi made out bills. Af- ter school he watched with amusement the ef- forts of a little sophomore trying to persuade Anne Tomashosky that he had paid his in- stallments in full. Such were his activities in the journalism department. And as he leaves them, the senior carries with him something other than merely a memory of confusion, or the clippings of a few stories. He will have learned something more of Truth, Loyality, Friendship, Leader- ship, Enlightment, Opportunity, and Initia- tive. .W X if X X H X Publication leaders discuss nlans for a forthcoming issue.

As the second semster opened, public speak- ing claimed the attention of Latrobe students. More and more each year, the student realizes the extreme importance of self-expression. No matter what profession he may enter, he must express himself accurately and clearly. To develop his speaking ability as Well as thc self-confidence and poise that go hand in hand with it, the student has the opportunity to gain valuable experience in a diversified pro- gram of public discussion-he may plead his cause in an original oration, he may quickly organize from his knowledge of a subject an extemporaneous speech, he may try to convince his listeners in a debate or he may present his interpretation of the works of the immor- tals. As the curtains parted in the auditorium on February 9, the 1940 forensic season opened. On the stage sat eight orators, each ready to offer his plea to an audience that had come to witness the Fifteenth Annual Rotary Ora- i46l torical Contest. Mr. Theron C. Smith intro- duced the speakers, who presented their causes convincingly and eloquently. After long de- liberation, the judges chose Allen Weiss as first place winner for his oration National- ism-The Greatest War Monger of Them All.

Debating on the subject, t'Resolved: The Government should own and operate the railroads, four seniors, Allen Weiss, Robert Chorpenning, Patty Wright and Nancy Stader, under the coaching of Miss Jeannette Dahlstrom, presented pro and con constructive arguments and rebut- tals. After a lively discussion, the judges fin- ally named the negative team of Robert Chor- penning and Allen Weiss as winners. in the final forensic activity of the year, the poetry reading, declamation, and Shake- spearean reading contests, six students per- formed on April 3. The contest, sponsored by the Woman's Club, was held in the home of Mrs. Steel B. St. Clair. For her readings of Barter, by Sara Teasedale and Tears by Lizette Reese, Helen Hunter acquired the poetry reading prize. The declamation contes- tants, Gaile Chorpenning, reciting UI Like 1940 Better, and Marie Harman, who pre- sented 'Times That Try Men's Souls, tied for first place.

Music Develops T Without music life would be a mistake, says Nietzsche, and it is thus reassuring to find the muse being kept alive and flourish- ing in the auditorium of Latrobe High School during the fourth and eighth periods, when members of band, orchestra and chor- us meet to practice music ranging from Mo- zart to John Philip Sousa. But there is more to the activities of the music department, supervised by Mr. F. A. Ringrose, than just practicing. During foot- ball season, the band was one of the most colorful attractions as it marched along Ligonier Street to the field, to form the letters L, H. S. during the half. Long hours of practice on the field after school had made this demonstration possible. The band lent color and excitement to the Hal- lowe'en, Armistice Day and Memorial Day parades. With John Hugus twirling his baton it headed the annual Home Coming Day spectacle. And, of course, the drum he Cultural. . roll at the kick-off has become almost an institution. Football season over, band members con- centrated on practicing for the Southwest band concert at Millvale, with Mollie Ross, Ruth Clarke, Carl Shirey, Edith Showalter, George Fluke and Thelma Piper finally making the journey. An assembly program claimed their attention for several weeks of special practice, and they were present to play when seniors received letter awards for various services. To obtain funds for new uniforms, the band held a concert. The orchestra also took a prominent part in the year's activities, Together with the high school orchestras of Johnstown and Greensburg, it presented joint concerts in Johnstown, Greensburg, and Latrobe. After each performance orchestra members of thc host school entertained visitors at a dance in the gymnasium. In the junior class play, l:48l . . . Side Cf Lile The Skull , the orchestra provided some of the more spectacular sound effects, and, like the band, presented an assembly program. Seven members, Thomas Moran, Mollie Ross, Thelma Piper, Carl Shirey, Charles French, Howard Weiss and Rudolph Melichar, traveled to Meyersdale to participate in the All Western Orchestra. All this in addition to playing for the opening of assembly and closing the pro- gram With the familiar strains of The Golden Spur. To provide musical training for band and orchestra, instrumental classes are held in room 121. Almost any afternoon the sounds of clarinets or horn break the silence of the rear corridor. Freshmen and sophomores learning to play an instrument under the guidance of Mr. Ringrose strive towards the goal of a chair in band or orchestra, which they may attain if they practice diligently. Freshmen girls interested in singing re- ceive their first training in Chorus I, where they learn the principles of harmonizing, in addition to vocal exercise. Those Chorus I members showing ability or interest in fur- ther choral work may join Chorus II, where they obtain further voice instruction and practice. At Christmas time this group of girls presenrted a cantata, The Wondrous Story, and participated in an assembly pro- gram with Chorus I. Two members of Chorus II, Mary Doherty and Julia McMahon, sang in the All-Western Chorus at Oakmont. A Boys' Chorus was reintroduced this year, with six- teen boys singing in the group. Music theory class specializes in the more technical sides of the art and aims at a better background and appreciation of the musical masterpieces through analysis of numerous compositions of the masters. Band, orchestra, chorus, music appreciation -all testify to the undying popularity of mus- ic, that hath charms to soothe the savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted Oak.

Afford Social Contacts And Create Friendship Opening the progam with a Latin theme song Written by Kathryn Dunn, members of the Gens Togata take an imaginary trip from the new world to the old for an hour of entertainment under the guidance of Miss Adeline Reeping. After the business meeting, conducted in Latin, comes to a close, several members of the club, wearing white togas, present a play dealing with Roman life and customs. As the meeting ends, members file out of the room with a better understanding of Roman life. With the reading of an original poem written by a club member, the program of the Literary Club gets under way. Mem' bers compare their reactions to the poem, with the adviser, Miss Mabel Lindner, join- ing the discussion. A book review of one of the outstanding new novels follows, after which members take time to hear Martha Neighly's plan for the club's assembly pro- gram. In conclusion, the choral readers present several selections, in illustration of correct rythmn and rhyme, under the dir- ection of Gaile Chorperining. By giving teas for their mothers and women faculty members, Home Economics course girls belonging to the Culinary Arts Club with Miss Emily Vosburg, as adviser, actually practice what they preach. The aim of the club is to develop a gracious., well-rounded personality, and playing hos- tess gives girls the opportunity to over! come self-consciousness and to develop self- reliance. Besides its social functions, thc club presents outside speakers and demon- strations by fellow members as program features. The group meets in the Walker Building. Under the supervision of Mr. Leonard I-limes, students especially interested in chemistry meet in 119 to further their knowledge of this science, especially of the part it plays in everyday life. An intent figure, in laboratory apron holding a test tube to the light, demonstrates an experi- ment to the club. President Katherine An- derson calls on several students for their investigation of some common patent medi- cines. At the end of the meeting, members go out better equipped as consumers. 50 LATIN CLUB FIRST ROW: Delcroix. Costello, Koleski, M. Potter, Schultheis, Graham, Kirk, Comp, Bair, McElroy, Matko, Barron.

After president Edward Sagan calls the meeting to order, juniors and seniors who belong to the Commercial Club spend an in- teresting hour learning more about the business world. Under the direction of Mr. H. E. Stover, they observe the correct and incorrect ways of applying for a position. They become more interested in business principles through a better understanding of them. Above all, they learn about new business machines and practices. For en- tertainment the club participates in a quiz on slogans used by prominent advertisers. With the guiding theme of encouraging friendship and developing personality, mem- bers of the Girls' Club, under the super- vision of Miss Virginia Daniels, assemble in the auditorium for the monthly meeting. After announcements and reports, the girls listen to a program presented by fellow- members, giving tips about make-up or the latest thing in the fashion world. At the end of the school term, when this organiza- tion gives a tea, seniors bid farewell to the friends they have made through mem- bership in this club. A whistle blows, the flags swing out, and the waiting crowd of students crosses Lig- onier Street in safety. Thus the sixteen members of the Safety Patrol, under the supervision of Mr. Herbert Hoerr, protect those who must cross Ligonier Street or Minehan Avenue to reach their homes. In fair weather or foul, the patrolmen are on duty stopping traffic for the safety of their fcllow classmates-at all times ready for the inspection given from time to time by the state highway patrol. Donning a brightly colored smock, the li- brarian prepares for a busy period in the library. She first takes her place outside the doors to admit the throngs from var- ious study halls, being careful to see that no one slips in who is ineligible. This done, she turns to the business of procuring material for bewildered seekers after know- ledge.

In addi- tion, through its programs, including re- ports by fellow members as well as ad- dresses by speakers drawn from local in- dustries, the student becomes acquainted with various types of occupations from which he may select his life work. The F. C. A. contributes to the welfare of the school through the repairing of chairs, typ- ing and library tables. Led by Wesley Johnson, members of the Future Farmers of Ameiica meet each month to discuss Ways of serving the com- munity through doing landscaping for town- people and making hot-beds. This national organization under the supervision of Mr. 531 er, Nindle. Jack Clinch, helps to develop competent and aggressive rural and agricultural leadership. One of the high-lights of the year's meet- ings was a send-off party for Wesley John- son and Donald Johnston who attended the agricultural convention in Kansas City. The Future Farmers also enjoyed a wiener roast at the Ross farm. Organized under the direction of Miss Elsie Garlow, underclassmen interested in commercial work join the Junior Chamber of Commerce and learn better business practises and knowledge. Mr. G. G. Hill, a teacher at Indiana State Teachers' Col- lege who spoke in assembly this year, was secured through the efforts of this organi- zation. The meeting of the club included educational as Well as entertaining pro- grams, with one of the meetings featuring a kiddies party at which the group returned to their childhood days. Entering 208. a timid freshman sits quietly while Joseph Barnett calls the meet- ing of the Science Club to order. After he answers the roll call, he looks on with rapt attention as Miss Catherine Netzlof shows members of the club the correct way to perform color experiments with an acid. This club not only promotes friendship and interest in science but also gives students the opportunity to use scientific apparatus in experimenting, besides increasing their knowledge of science and its application in everyday life.

'ln' From the ranks of more than twelve hun- dred students of Latrobe High School, representatives were elected by the student to lead, serve, and entertain them, and the Student Council began another year of activities. Enthusiasm reigned as the group of eager Council members met for the first time in rooms 12 and 13 to elect officers for the year. The members departed from the usual custom as they elected a girl, Chris- tina David, to lead their activities. Then choosing Henry Seremet as vice president, they selected Janice Arisman to keep the record of the year and Joseph Uhrin to act as treasurer. As gay vendors of tasty wares they passed hot dogs and pop over the counter to hungry, thirsty football fans, or bobbed in and out among the bleachers with eskimo pies for basketball fans, When Saturday morning dawned on Home Coming Day, Student Council members rolled out of bed early to join members of their home rooms as they strung orange and black streamers over trucks and wagons. Fun for every- body was the slogan of the three Student Council sponsored parties. Students toss- ed aside books and papers as they danced, played games and entered contests at the i'Pumpkin Parade , the K'Leap Year Hop , and the i'Poverty Party , in the gymnas- ium. Student Council also invited students Members of the Problems of Democracy classes and a representative from the buy and girl scouts regard the tomb of the Unknown Sold- ier in a scene from the Armistice Day P a g e a n t, America Remembers.

The Wednesday and Friday assembly periods held no terrors for the Council as- sembly committee that provided for the pro- grams, including both the entertainment given by students and that furnished by the professionals of the nine special assemblies. However, not limit'ng their activities to the field of entertainment, the Student Coun- cil proudly presented three more oil paint- ings to the rapidly growing student-sel- ected collection- Florence Dugan , The Junior Choir, and Leona With the advent of spring, Council mem- bers industriously turned their attention towards cleaning up.

Wild and his as- s stant, Mr. Michael Rizzo, were toiling in the late summer with over 60 football candi- dates who answered the sport's first call. Workouts every day finally shaped the squad into a grid machine which was to engage eight rival schools during the sea- son. Opening day, September 16, finally rolled around and the Wildcats received their first test when they tangled with a veteran Bell Township eleven on the home field. The Wildmen humbled the visitors to the tune of 27-6. In the initial period, the Orange offense started to roll with Massena as the spearhead of the attack. When the smoke vanished, Latrobe had three touchdowns Scoring was at a standstill until midway in the third period when Massena faded back and shot a strike to Ballantyne on the 50 yard line from where he scampered down the side to score. With less than two min- utes remaining in the contest, Bell Town- ship came to life and avoided a White wash when they shook Lesko loose on a reverse for their lone touchdown. The old saying that it is the better team which can take advantage of the breaks seems to be the password for Hurst's Scar- let Hurricane, for the Red and White capi- talized on a break for the second consecu- tive year and edged out the Wildcats, 7-0. The mishap came late in the first half when Polcha snared a pass intended for Roth and scampered 44 yards for the win- ning points. Glamp added the extra point with a placement. In the final period, the Wildcats drove from their own 10, where Ballantyne grabbed a punt, to midfield. Successive drives by Ballantyne and Kas- prowiecz took the pigskin to Hurst's 10 yard stripe, but the final whistle blew, ending the game. The following Saturday the Wildmen in- vaded Connellsville for their first foreign encounter. They not only had to battle a veteran Coker eleven but a driving rain- storm as well as they went down to defeat by a 21-0 count. Neither team could muster a scoring punch as the first half ticked away, but the Cokers broke the deadlock in the third frame when they caught Bal- lantyne behind his own goal line after a lc-ad pass from center. This was the spark the Cokers needed for they added three more touchdowns in short order. Boyle, Luczak, and Keffer struck pay-off dirt in quick succession. With Bill Ballantyne playing his last game and scoring all the points, the Wild- cats returned home to snap back into the win column the following Saturday by rout- ing Norwin 20-6 in the annual Home Com- THE1940 VARSITY SQUAD FIRST ROW: Carbonara, DeFlavio, Felbaum, Brody, Sarneso, Statler, link, Flack, Giobbi, Roth, Eallarltyne.

The locals had to come from behind after Murray fell on Massena's blocked punt in the end zone. Bal began his single handed scoring spree when he sliced off tackle and raced 38 yards for the first touchdown. Before the final gun he chalked up two more touchdowns and con- verted the two extra points. The following Saturday the Altoona Mountain Lion roared into town primed for revenge for the previous year's setback, but it was another victory for the 'Cats, 12-3. The Lions got off on the right foot in the first half when Kaufmann kicked a field goal from the 25 yard line for three points, but Latrobe came right back to add a touchdown. Massena raced back and flip- ped a pass to Statler who galloped over for the soore. Gondos put the game on ice in the final canto when he sliced off guard for six more points. With but a few min- utes of playing time left, Altoona started to move. They clawed their way to within inches of the goal line, but the timer's gun halted them. The local eleven enjoyed an open date following their victory over Altoona before beginning preparation for the season's high- light against Greensburg. Traveling to Offut Field, the Wildcats scored a 12-0 victory for the first Latrobe win on Greens- burg soil. A drive of 49 yards which car- ried the ball to the Raider's 10 yard line was climaxed by a pass from Gondos to Massena who scampered the remaining dis- tance for the initial tally. Giobbi, who en- tered the lineup for the first time after an injury, added the final score when he snared one of Greensburg's desperate heaves in the waning moments of the game and raced 38 yards for the night-cap. The Wilkinsburg eleven came riding into town, floating high on the crest of an unde- feated season. Hopes for a W. P. I. A. L. title went glimmering, however, when the Wildcats forced them to be satisfied with a scoreless deadlock.

Il brand of ball playing of the season, the Orange outplayed Wilkinsburg by pounding out eleven first downs to the visitor's nine. Latrobe twice threatened to score in the first half when marches by Massena and Giobbi ended unsuccessfully on the visitor's 10 and 13 yard lines. Wilkinsburg opened an of- fense late in the final frame, but Mitchell and MintJer's drives were of no avail as the whistle ended the game. With four seniors playing their last game, the Wildcats closed their season with a thriller which saw Derry Township score their second victory over the Wildcats in 13 years by a 7-0 count. The lone tally of the game came when an over-anxious La- trober knocked Johnston's pass into the arms of Clayton who raced over for the score. No serious threats developed until the second period when thrusts by Massena and Giobbi carried the ball to the Golden Eagles' 14 yard stripe where 3 passes fail- ed. Township also threatened in the fourth quarter when successive drives were check- ed on the eight, five, and two yard stripes. With another victorious season in the back ground over 40 Wildcats saw Nebraska humble the Pitt Panthers in the Pitt Stad- ium as guests of Mr. Roy C. McKenna of the Vanadium Alloy Steel Company. Sev- en seniors were watching their last game as guests of Mr. McKenna. Still another part of the football program was completed when Mr. M. N. Funk pre- sented fifteen gridders with the varsity L, Letter winners included Statler, Gi- obbi, Ballantyne, Brody, Flack, Yandrick, Zink, Roth, Resnic, Carbonara, Battaglia, Felbaum, Bendl, Massena and managers Ci- chetti and Arch. The grand finale of the season came when the squad, band, cheer-leaders and faculty members enjoyed a banquet at the Latrobe Country Club. The turkey dinner competed with the talk of Coach Bill Kern of Car- negie Tech for honors as the highlight of the evening.

Wild was faced with the prospect of build- ing up a team with only a few returning regulars to meet the competition of the Section IX race. With the first encounter approaching the Coach announced his rost- er which included Joe Pagnanelli, Bleehash, Adams, John Pagnanelli, Fyalkowski, Gi- obbi, Resnic, Accorsi, Thomas, Kasprowi- ecz, and Kenly. The Wildcats opened the campaign when they engaged the faculty. The profs were no match for the students as they dropped the contest by a 36-18 score.

Taking an early lead, Hurst's Scarlet Hur- ricane scored their initial victory over the Wildcats by a 30-27 count, Latrobe found the hoop in the final frame but time halted them four points short of victory. In a return engagement the Wildcats tra- veled to Uniontown and came home with the first scholastic victory dangling from their belts. The final score was 25-22. Play- ing their second game in as many nights, they tangled with Hurst again to lose :1 29-16 decision. During the Christmas holi- days the Wildmen tangled with the Alumni, with the school boys triumphing by a 31-26 score. Giobbi sparked the Wildcats to victory with his 15 counters. The Wildcats opened their league sched- ule at Norwin, engaging the Blge and White five. A fourth period spurt gave Norwin a 34-23 victory. The Orange and Black re- turned home to capture their first league victory when they ploughcd under the Scott- dale five by a 29-24 score. Taking a rest from qsedtion IX race, they traveled to Duquesne where a polished Red and Blue quintet swamped them 34-12. The Orange defense could not stop Con- nellsvil1e's forward, Jones. as he gathered in 21 points of their 42-16 victory. In the following encounter the Wildcats engaged the Jeannette quintet and again suffered defeat by a 32-17 count. They enjoyed a 'S first period lead, but led by Mastro, the Jayhawks pulled away to victory, Never relinguishing a first period lead, Greens- burg Raiders scored a 35-18 victory in the closing first round game.

In a return battle with Norwin, the Orange- men bcame the victims of a 23-21 defeat. Leaving the Wildcat gym, the ponies hit the road for Scottdale where the Scotties gained revenge for an earlier setback with a 26-21 win. Attempting to break into the win col- umn, the Mackmen tangled with the seniors who pounded out a 17-16 decision. Encountering Duquesne in their next game, the Wildkittens fell before the onslaught by a 31-5 count. Dropping successive games to Jeannette and Greensburg by the scores of 22-14 and 45-11, the ponies rang down the curtain on their 1939 cage season.

Snyder began to roll with the Sopho- more B squad and the junior girls dominat- ing the inter-class struggles. The boys' underclass divisions were di- vided into three squads each to provide more games for more competitors. The sophomore A squad started the ball rolling in the opener when they trounced the Soph C five by an 18-6 count. The A's met dis- aster however when they tangled with the Soph B quintet going down to defeat by a 20-14 score. The B's clinched the cham- pionship when they faced the Soph C's and came out on top by a 17-12 margin. The freshmen squads stepped into the picture with the C's emerging victorious with two victories and the same number of defeats. The champs got off to a good E681 start, ploughing under the Sophomore C quintet by a 19-17 score. They continued on their way by adding the A squad's scalp to their belt by a 13-4 land slide. The fresh- men tasted defeat for the first time when they met the sophomore C's and dropped a 9-8 decision. The boys closed their hardwood season when the freshman B and C fives tangled for the last time with the B squad getting the nod by a 10-7 score. The girls sextette under the instruction of Miss Kathryn Donnelly also ran off their cage schedule at the same time as the boys. The first few battles were inter-squad games to decide the starting combinations for the league frays. With the squads sel- ected, the actual competition got under Way with the girls playing for keeps, and when the smoke cleared away the junior class emerged with the championship on their hands. A L L L - JUNIORS GIRLS FIRST RCW: Davis, Steck, Potter, Doh- erty, Ondrizek, Vollenweider. SECOND ROW: Tripodi, Lancianese Buchan, Showalter, Sessi, Huber Mears.

The seniors and juniors opened the court schedule in a tight ball game which saw the seniors grab off a 109 decision. In the next struggle the sophomore sextette handed the juniors another one point re- verse by a 20-21 score, The sophomores then went on to upset the dope bucket and defeat the favored seniors by a 13-5 margin. The juniors stepped into the win column for the first time when they set back the freshmen by a decisive 25-5 count. The seniors avenged their previous defeat when they again tangled with the sopho- mores, coming out on top by a 24 to 20 score. The juniors clinched a play-off with the seniors when they defeated the sopho- mores 22-16 while the seniors were also taking the sophomores into camp by an 18 to 12 count. In the championship game, led by Showalter, the juniors eked out a 13-12 victory to carry off the championship laurels. SECOND ROW: Mosso, Tosh, Ziolkowsky Robbins, Bodner.

With the schedule posted, boys and girls alike began to drop them in for the victory that would bring the cham- pion's banner to their room. When every- thing had cleared away, it was the seniors who triumphed with the boys of 112 sharing the honors with the girls from 103. With Sarneso as the main cog in the defense the basketeers of 112 ploughed through all opposition and gained the right to tangle with 204 in the finals. The game swayed back and fourth, but victory was not to be denied the seniors as they pulled away to a 32-26 win. In the girls' division room 103, also boasting an undefeated rec- ord, was matched with the unbeaten squad from 211. Jackson, sparked 103 to victory in a close 13-12 battle.

IJ MINOR SPORTS . .. Bring Athletic Participation Within The Reach Ot All An expanded program of minor sports once again provided the thrill and experiences of athletic competition for those who needed an additional outlet not provided through thc major sports, football and basketball. Teeing off with a veteran squad consisting of Thomas, Melichar, Eiseman, Arch, Morley and Mekic, the 1940 golf team coached by Mr. H. I. Snyder began their season with high hopes of bringing home the section champion- ship. This year's league schedule was similar to that of last year with the linksmen meeting Greensburg, Jeannette and Johnstown as well as playing Ligonier and Kiski in warm-up rounds. The Orange and Black netters, because of adverse spring weather, were a little late in getting started in their campaign, but under the guidance of Coach George D. Rise rounded into shape for their first encounter of the racquet season. Hugus, the only returning letter man, led the squad against Johnstown, Jeannette and Greensburg to complete a full season. The cinder men undcr the direction of Coach R. V. Wild did themselves proud this year as they came through, flashing winning form in dual, triangular, county and class meets. The nucleus of the '40 squad was made up of a number of previous letter winners. The gym team coached by Mr. H. I. Snyder successfully completed their 1940 card with two boys qualifying for the district meet at Slippery Rock. George Mickey took first on the side horse and rope climbing at the reg- ional meet in Pittsburgh and placed fourth on the horse in the district meet at Slippery MINOR SPORT SQUADS START THE BALL ROLLING At Left TOP: Alvin Glenn thrusts for a point but John Buerio parries.

THE FENCING SQUAD EGYYDM FIRST ROW: A, Glenn, Boerio, Casteel, Jones, Murray, SECOND ROW: Hayes, Weiss, Kloock, Kiser, Caruso, Melichar Hultcn Eiseman, E711 Rock. James Gill placed second in rope climb- ing at the regional meet but failed to place at ihe district meet. Although the girls' archery squad had no actual schedule, a group of enthusiastic arch- ers worked under the direction of Miss Claire Gibson during the fall and spring months. Bows twanged and arrows filled the air on the Flats each evening after school as the girls peppered the bulls eye to demonstrate their aim and ability in another field of sports. Still only a freshman in organized sports, the fencing team coached by Mr. M. C. Dovey engaged in actual competition and came out without one defeat to mar their record. With Casteel, Boerio, Clawson, Murray, Eiseman and Glenn as the mainstays of the squad, the fencers took over groups from the University of Pittsburgh, Avalon and Wilkinsburg. This year's squad of cheerleaders terminat- ed their actvities at the close of the basket- ball season, Mr. C. E. McDougall had five boys to lead cheers during the two major sport seasons. Head cheerleader George Mickey, had as his assistants Richard Humes, Vincent Quatrini, Charles Delcroix and Thomas O'- Rourke. The athletic board added another pastime to its sport parade this year with the pur- chase of two ping-pong tables. Ping-pong fa- natics could be seen almost any evening trying to outsmart their opponents. Although no attempt was made to organize the activity as a part of the sport program, it provided many moments of relaxation for student and faculty members alike with the spectators often two deep awaiting their turn at the tables.
