Hulton, super- intendent of schools, who checks regularly with each of the six public school buildings in the community to make sure all divi- sions of the scholastic factory are running smoothly. Talent production must have directors, so to find the foremen of Latrobe's educational fac- tory Louis B. Bayer looked to the front hall offices. Dr. Iohn G. Hulton, superintendent of the Latrobe public schools, is the chief administra- tion officer. Dr. Hu1ton's duties center around schools in the entire district. He takes charge of public schools in the borough of Latrobe. The policies established by the Board of Educa- tion and other measures are carried out by the superintendent. Another essential person in the production of talent is the principal who serves as a source of information to both students and teachers alike. Mr. M. N. Funk organizes the Work of the high school and supervises it to see that the work is done. He advises students in re- ADMINISTRATION gard to the filling out of schedules and college applications, and gives occupational advice. The Work of the principal, Mr. Funk, and the superintendent, Dr. Hulton, is lightened by the secretaries. Miss Ruth Himler is secretary to Dr. Hulton and also the Board of Education. Mrs. Robert H. Stahl Works with Mr. Funk. Miss Annabelle Walter is the clerical assistant in Dr. Hulton's office. Miss Florence Breeton assists in the principal's office by checking students' attendance. The board of directors of the educa- tional factory who make possible the activities- performed and establish the school standards are the seven members of the Board of Educa- tion. Serving on the Board are Dr. S. W. Nealon, Mr. George F. Brown, Mr. Francis Harvey, Mr. William McCullough, Mr. Harry M. Reed, Mr. Samuel G. Hummel and Dr. Thomas St. Clair. Through the industry and ability of these. men, policies are drawn up under which the and Mr. Harry M. Reed BOARD OF EDUCATION Corporation directors of acad emic machinery are school board members: Seated, Mr. William Mc Cullough, Dr. S. W. Nealon D Thomas St. Clair, and Mr George F, Brown. Standing, Mr Samuel G. Rummel, Mr. Francis I Harvey the Bcafd of Education: Mrs. ishes a clerical report for Dr. Hultcn. Quality-Questing Heads Shape School Program school operates. The board also controls and arranges the finances of the school. Although most high school students do not come into personal contact with these men who represent the entire community, they could not get along without them. Students' talents are uncovered and chan- neled by the administration. Personal confer- ences with the principal play a big part. Col- lege representatives are secured to consult with the seniors. Freshmen and seniors receive special guidance courses for orientation and re- view purposes. The talent producers also help place students in positions after graduation and administer college tests. Through the interest and initiative of the school administration, the hands that guide Latrobe High School talent production,-future doctors, secretaries, mechanics and teachers will emerge to take their place in their own pro- fession as well as in the world of citizenship. HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAMMING is in the hands of Mr. M. N. Funk, principal, who consults student record tiles in order that curricu- lar and extra-curricular activities may best promote and encourage the talents of each pupil. THREE SECRETARIES aid the ad- ministrators: Miss Ruth Himler checks files for Dr. Hulton and Robert Stahl. the principal's secre- tary, types near the telephone board: Miss Annabelle Walter tin- Candid Snapshots Show Moments In Lives Of Educators MB.

Dr. F. Clay Gibson Dr. W. F. Berberich Dr. William Sipe Dr. William Schimpf Dr. I. Wiley Hartman It took a trip to the hospital for Louis B. Bayer to find out the facts and figures on the men who keep the Wheels of the educational factory in good running order-the medical staff of Latrobe High School. In order to inform parents of the physical needs of the students, complete physical examinations are con- ducted through the freshmen and junior classes each year. A detailed health report is sent to all parents in- dicating the individual results. The doctors assisting in these check-ups are Doctors Gervase F. Nealon, Paul A. Mankovich, los. F. Lechman, and I. A. Doherty. Others include Dr. I. H. Hamill, Dr. I. Wiley Hartman, Dr. William Schimpf, Dr. William Sipe, Dr. W. F. Berberich, Dr. F. Clay Gibson, Dr. Thomas M. Sproch, and Dr. Gerard N. Huber. In health classes the student learns to take better care of himself. Here he studies first aid measures, communicable diseases, formation of good habits and attitudes, and the functions of the various parts of body. With the help of Willing and diligent instructors and the co-operation of all the students, Latrobe High School Dr. Thomas M. Sproch Dr. Gerard N. Huber sponsors an excellent program for the development of healthy future citizens. Dr. lack H. Hamill Dr. Ioseph A. Doherty Dr. Ioseph F. Lechman Dr. Paul A.

CWNSTAIRS . .. No nook or cranny in Latrobe High School went uninspected by Louis B. Bayer. He looked everywhere-upstairs, downstairs, all around the school. . ln classes he listed to Te cano patria and P. of D. supplementaries: he watched seniors break pencil points pouring their convictions into orationsy he observed rainbow concoctions in chemistry class. Then Louis made a mark in his record book. ln relaxed moments he looked over prints the Camera Club produced: he noted the enthu- siasm of Wildcat fans: he smiled at infant es- capades in sophomore autobiographies: he cocked his ear to hear tuneiul outbursts from countless school musicians. Then Louis made a mark in his record book. Examining vocational education he found professional-looking furniture in Wood shop: he fingered homemaker's stitches: he judged prac- tical consumption practices oi future buyers. Then Louis made a mark in his record book. All through the school Louis went taking notes in his record book. And when he was finished . . . the book was full of stars. er- Nw!- 5. ,Q Q, ' My x ,,.-.v z Z ff-2 'Jin - ' . ,- f 'lip 5:2-If ' 6 , 'ffigfg 1 A . - iid 1.

' Where perfection-insistent hammers beat out insight- sharpened blades, Where idea-jolting sparks started talent-developing motors. These instruments were true and their managers wise. Our keen wits, loosened tongues, straighter shoulders, graver brows attest to it. We listen and hear the hum of school machinery: of chalk's tap and Whisper, of typewriters' clack and ring, of clock's hiccough, of heating system's purring, of shop's whirring, of gym's whistle and scream, of orchestra's pieces of practice, of thinking, thinking And all these familiar things strike some chord-like thread within us And we remember.

' gh ' W F BEAR HITS JACKPCT Outstanding Seniors Reward Louis' Search For Talent Barbara Beatty Ned Nakles lean Caldwell Margaret Washinko THE IOURNALIST - - - Barbara Beatty Laugh and the world busts out giggling sums up the philosophy of the Quill and Scroll's pride and joy. As High Post feature writer and editor, Bobbie dissolved gloom among the inmates of Latrobe High School. She threw herself into Beatty's Trading Post, and the publication as- sembly plays: The Case of the Grief-Stricken Greenie and Romance in the Rocky Mountains. Living way back thar on Unity Street Extension, she derives aesthetic pleasure from hillbilly music when not spicing up copy. THE SPEAKER ------ Ned Nakles Ned's best friend is his microphone. His rec- ord shows one long line of forensic successes. He won the Kiwanis Extemporaneous Contests four years, taking the grand prize in 1947 and in 1949. WHIB carried his voice three times in Iunior Town Meeting of the Air broadcasts. A champion de- bater he took part in interscholastic debates. This year, he copped second prize in the Rotary Ora- torical Contest. Ned plans to be a lawyer. THE HOMEMAKER - - Iean Caldwell Whipping up a devil's food with one hand, an evening gown with the other, and a batch of high honor grades with her head, Iean emerged from the cottage as the homemaking course's model student. Sewing was her favorite part of home- making curricula. She modeled her own clothes in school fashion shows all four years and took first prize last year for one of her creations in Reed's Clothing Contest. After school it's the nurse's life for Iean. Donald Wright Joseph Maher THE SECRETARY - Margaret Washinko No doubt remains as to whether Margie will attain her life-long ambition of becoming a private secretary. Her success in the commercial course was climaxed and her ability proved by her initia- tion into the National Honor Society her junior year. Of all commercial studies she likes typing best. As a senior she typed and wrote feature stories for the High Post. When not taking dicta- tion she loves to dance and listen to Bing sing. THE MUSICIAN - - - Donald Wright Progressing from ''I'll-give-you-a-piece-of-can- dy-if-you-practice to weekly lessons under Mr. I. Fred Lissefelt, music critic for the Sun Tele- graph , Don Wright's name is now synomous with the piano. His dream is to sit on a Steinway bench on Carnegie Hall's stage. Connected with every- thing musical in sight, he accompanied Boys' Chor- us four years, sang in the Barbershop Quartet, wore the drum major's shako during football sea- son, played clarinet in band, orchestra. Commun- ity band and orchestra, and State band in 1947. THE SHOPMAN ---- Ioseph Maher Cracklingest volt in the electrical department is Ioe Maher. Deciding on a field in the industrial course in which to specialize he chose electric shop, and there he evolved a passion for radio. After laying aside his high school diploma, Ioe wants to continue his education in radio and make a mark for himself in wave-length engineering. Beyond the doors of electric shop, Ioe was mega- phone-happy as a cheerleader, and top pretzel man on the gymnastics squad. on Moving-Up Day as the junior class president. In the social field he served as president of the Community Club Iunior Council: in the athletic, as co-captain of the Wildcat varsity basketball squad. After graduation he plans to use his abili- ties in the law courts. THE SCHOLAR - - Mary Ellen Berneski Mary Ellen is the girl with the pencil on her right hand instead of an index finger. A four-year high honor student and a member of National Honor Society and Quill and Scroll, she yearns for a writing career. She has already tasted the first fruits of writing success: the 51,000 first prize in this year's Pennsylvania Week Quiz-Essay Con- test, 13 regional awards and three national prizes in National Scholastic Writing Contests of the past four years. THE ACTRESS - - - Malinda Massena With her ginger-ale personality and apricot- colored hair adding sparkle to her roles, Lindy distinguished herself in two all-class plays and the 1948 junior class play. In Spring Green she played 'Scootie', in Brother Goose , 'Carol' and in The Baby-Sitter , 'Eunice'. Although she likes playing brats, Lindy's favorite part was that of neurotic Mrs. Stevenson in the broadcaster's as- sembly, Sorry, Wrong Number. A dramatic career comes second in her heart, however, Lindy wants to be a doctor. Malinda Massena Mary Ellen Berneski THE ATHLETE ----- Robert Keefe Give him a pigskin and watch him go! Bob established himself as football material the minute he entered high school. His freshman year he made the varsity team. In succeeding years he earned a letter and two certificates. Last fall he gained a place on the County Team. He was also a weightman on the track team and a member of the basketball squad. Planning to take up account- ing, he expects to further his schooling by means of football scholarships. THE LEADER ---- George Lynch Doby's talent as a leader lifted him to the top like a cake of ivory no matter what bathtub he was in. His freshman year it was the Science Club presidency. Last year he accepted the senior key Robert Keefe George Lynch . I L UNI URS IUNIOR-SENIOR PROM. the year's big social event, starts decoration thoughts buzzing in the minds of class officers Pauline Derek. Bruce Jenkins, Dennis Yamber, Donald Bossart and Wayne Johnson. Bayer Eye Sees Traces Of Good Things To Come In 1950 Although the talent of the junior class had not yet come so close to the surface as that of the seniors, Louis B. Bayer still had no trouble finding it. The election of junior class officers came first on the program of events. Juniors elected Donald Bossart as president: Dennis Yamber was chosen vice-president. Pauline Derek filled the secretarial job, while Bruce Jenkins took over the duties of treasurer. Student Coun- cil representative was Wayne Johnston. Next came the decorating for the first dance of the year, Moonlight Stag. Under the direc- tion of Miss Florence Gill, adviser, the juniors carried out the theme by decorating the gym with large yellow moons. The junior committee consisted of George Seitanakis. Harry Dundore, Dianne Parker, Marilyn Luttner, Bill Buchanan, Robert Bitts and Nancy Erny. Six junior boys received letters for their ball handling on the gridiron throughout the past football season. They were Bob Morris, Elmer McDonald, Gerald Schmucker, George Halula, Al Nigro and Jack Denny. Several junior girls became officers in the Commercial and Library clubs. Clare Kornides served as vice-president of the Commercial Club, While Helen Laird acted as secretary. Vice-president of the Library Club was Marilyn Luttner, and Student Council representative for the organization was Beverly Crowe. Striding the boards in true stage manner, junior actors made a howling hit of Dear Ruth, the junior class play. Thespians in the produc- tion included Emma Sue Rexrode, Jim Thomp- son, Sarah Black, Geraldine Hurley, Bob Ritz, Anna Mclielvey, Pat Shaw, Bob Fenton, Bruce Jenkins, and Michael Smetanka. Five juniors participated in Junior Town Meetings of the Air. Did you Vote? was the subject of the first WHJB broadcast. Dianne Parker emphasized voting's importance: Harry Dundore went into its history in the United States: Emma Sue Rexrode compared our elec- tions with Russia's. Latrobe-An Industrial Community was the topic for the second Jun- ior Town Meeting. Sarah Black talked on The Steel Industry of Latrobe. Wilbur Kirk presented Problems of Industry. For the first time, a junior drafted the junior class flag. Jack Emery designed his class ban- ner: the gold-lettered motto Sound Minds, Able Citizens on one side and the class flower, the daffodil, a green book, Latrobe High School, and 1950 on the back, all against a green back- ground. Carol Moberg headed the flag commit- tee and received aid from Franklin Allen, Bar- bara Dutrow, Wiley Hartman, Evelyn Mervay, and Robert Heeping. Choosing an orchestra for the junior-senior prom was quite a responsibility, but committee members, led by Barbara Johnstin, fulfilled all expectations by producing Barry Blue's popular dance band. Also contributing t.heir efforts to make the prom a success were Barbara's helpers Marcella Laposky, Nancy Eby, Richard Guskie- wicz, and Paul Cline. 1 nm F' f 15 1,!

S OPH UM ORE Digging Into The Minor Classes Unearths Roots Cf Talent Spectacles helped Louis inspect the silly sophomores. The light of the sophomore class was still under an underclass bushel, but it was beaming just the same. When the problem of choosing class offi- cers presented itself, the sophomores went into a huddle on the subject and came up with re- sults. They chose Francis Sonny Hurite as their president. In the roll of vice-president, Fred Wegley got the nod. Mary Lynch took over the secretarial job, while Nancy Parizek acted as treasurer. Student Council represen- tative was Ianet Wells. Fifteen members of the class of 5l par- ticipated in plays. Barbara Dorn and Bill New- comer helped make fellow students laugh in the all-class production of Mistakes at the Blakes.

Fred Wegley co-operated as one of the Patrol co-captains. lack Baluh acted as lieutenant while Regis Kessler took care of the Patrol reports as secre- tary. With Good Sportsmanship as their goal the Student Council committee for the home- coming day parade worked diligently.

As their contribution to the observance of Latin Week, four members of their class sub- mitted maps and scrolls to the Latin Week ex- hibit in the Buhl Planetarium. For their entries the four won a book, Pioneering in Western Pennsylvania .

He had to strain his eyes a little at first, but, sure enough, his myopia was compensated by flashes of talent. With the full blast of educational machinery turned on it, the green bud had grown ready to burst into full bloom. The frosh got their first taste of formal elec- tion when they inaugurated five members of their class to act as their officers for the coming school year. President Andrew Keefe was as- sisted in his duties by Vice-president Charles Bell. Secretary Nancy Swintek Wrote the min- utes, while Treasurer Ronald Lynch kept a watchful eye on the class funds. Ray Evans represented the freshman on the Student Coun- cil and kept them abreast of all the curricular and extra curricular activities. Freshman English students presented a skit about the Thanksgiving Festive Board as the annual holiday program. Actors Selma Hanna, Pat Hughes, Ioan Cline, Marie Derek, Cam- eron Eiseman, Martin Westfall, Albert Fox, Rox- anne Freeman, and Narrator Christine Slater demonstrated freshman possibilities. The Greenies also tried their hand at writ- ing. Barbara Hinger entered an essay in the Iunior Classical League essay contest. Char- lotte Clister sent a poem in verse to the Class- ical Outlook Society. Under the watchful eye and Andrew Keefe. Flights Into Class Whirl I of co-chairmen Ioan Lavin and Pat Robinsky the freshmen did less complex writing in the form of programs for the Tommy Hawkins dance. Rumor has it that the Hollywood depres- sion came about as a direct result of the fresh- man movie How To Win Friends and Make 95's . The production, directed and produced by Mr. Harry Graham, science instructor, was filmed to serve as a teaching instrument to give freshmen a bird's eye view of high school work. Starring in the epoch-making venture. Ioan Cline and Harry Albert portrayed the good and bad sides of the story. The cinematic project was completed by all- frosh committees. Patricia Robinsky was cast- ing director. Robert Frye took charge of light- ing and Barbara Okonak of make-up. Ann Biller helped chairman Cameron Eiseman with the properties. Cast members included Lee Fow- ler, Ruth Hazlett, Marie Derek, and Norma Iean Kloock. Also succumbing to footlight fever were Hugh Shields, Marie Ruth Freeman, Nancy Swintek, and lack Milligan. Talent flashes illuminated activities. Boom 208, Santa's Theater , copped first place in home room Christmas decorations. Iack Mc- Ilnay as Tiny Tim had the only non-senior role in Dicken's Christmas Carol . Huey Shields took the freshman ping pong cham- pionship.

UBLICATIONS HIGH POST EDITOR Virginia Bowman realizes the truth of the old adage, An editor's work is never done, as she begins constructing a layout for next Friday's paper. As Louis B. Bayer continued his search, the smell of printer's ink assailed his nostrils and he found himself in the presence of tomorrow's journalists. Louis' initial investigation revealed the pride of the publications department, the La- trobean, that has captured All-American rating for ten straight years in National Scholastic Press contests plus a long string of firsts in both the Pennsylvania and Columbia Scholastic Press Associations. This year's book had as its co- editors Mary Ellen Berneski and Malinda Mas- sena who were assisted by a co-operative staff. Next the school paper The High Post at- tracted attention. Without a doubt Virginia Bowman, editor, certainly had a job on her hands. But she never Worried for she had a capable crew to assist her all the time. The crew consisted of Barbara Beatty, feature editor: Angelo Caruso, sports editor: Henrietta Slater, 'S-....y' IOURNALISTS PERSPIRE Lett Feature Editor Barbara Beatty and her stall members Margaret Washingko, Marian Iohnson, Io Ann Hoffman, Rose Pillette and Mildred Routch, try out jokes on each other before putting them in the feature page.

Closer examination of the bi-weekly High Post revealed its virtues and merits. First of all the latest school news was on the front page. Then there was the feature page that made even the gloomiest person laugh. The third section was the sports page that followed the Wildcats through thick and thin. And finally there was the last page with its news-feature stories and advertisements. The latter factor not only bene- .fn sie fitted merchants in the community but also enabled the paper to stand on its own feet and be independent, Kwell, almostl. Another work performed by the staff was that big boon to freshmen-the Orange and Black handbook. This little book helped many students to climb the hurdles of greeniehood without too many embarrassing moments.

Girls' Chorus II, composed of 75 sopho- more, junior and senior girls, performs in as- sembly for students and is a part of the big choral concert at the conclusion ot the school year. Mr. Green, director, chooses this group on the basis of vocal ability. Two girls from Chorus II were picked to participate in district chorus this year. Seniors Patricia Smith and Mary Ellen Kasunic were the Latrobe delegates. The 90-piece band, one of the largest in the state, also is one of the most active groups in the high school.

I Orchestra Ancl Choruses Foster Musical Appreciation fContinued from page seventy! blew the whistle to keep the band from going astray, While Ronald Carnahan twirled the baton. Regina Macey put high-steppers Patricia Shaw, Ann Flowers, Barbara Dutrow, and Mary Iane Girard through their paces. An addition to the music department was the Hammond electric organ presented to the high school by the Civic Club as a memorial to Latrobe's World War II dead. Mr. Harold Beech, director of music at Greensburg High School, offered organ instruction to students desiring it. Song assemblies proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Latrobe High School students have music in their veins. Often the corridors fairly rang as April Showers or On the Road to Mandalay echoed from the auditorium. One of the annual special all-student musical events was the Christmas Carol singing which took place in home rooms and was led by a choral group singing over the loud speaker. ' Providing music for the high school is a job for the various divisions of the music de- partment. Listening, Louis B. Bayer heard audi- ble echoes oi talent in the orchestra, Boys' Chorus and Girls' Chorus I. Girls' Chorus I is composed of freshmen girls who volunteered for chorus work because they love to sing. Most of these girls advance after a year's training and are chosen to partici- pate in Girls' Chorus II. This year's total shows that 85 freshmen girls turned into melodious altos, sopranos, and second Sopranos for Mr. ORCHESTRA . . . Sam Green in Chorus I. Ninety-five boys from all classes blend their voices in Boys' Chorus. This year four boys were chosen from the many applicants to par- ticipate in District Chorus. Those selected were seniors Donald Wright and Zane Hauser and Tophomores Donald Hudock and Leonard Kost- ey. The orchestra, which plays for every assem- bly, is another of the important school organiza- tions. Latrobe High School sent nine repre- sentatives to the District Orchestra this year. Those who made the trip were Doris Gregory, Catherine Bridge, Barbara Iohnstin, Antoinette Martino and Priscilla lane Beatty. Others hon- ored by acceptance were Aldora Tovo, Juanita Taylor, Helen Iane Moersch and Mary Lou Ross. Doris Gregory was the school's only delegate to the State Orchestra. Boys' Chorus sang for the radio broadcast, Voice of Latrobe , over WHIB. Both Boys' Chorus and Girls' Chorus I sang in assemblies and at the annual qhoral concert at the conclu- sion oi the year. The orchestra played for each Wednesday and Friday school assembly. Also they were called upon to play for class plays and other events staged in the auditorium. Donald Wright, senior, assisted the Boys' Chorus four succeeding years at the piano. Helen Keffer, junior was pianist for orchestra and for each song assembly. Marcia Fenton ac- companied Girls' Chorus. I. Sara Black, junior, played carols on the new organ at Christmas time. First Row: Gregory, Tovo, Ross, Sarnese, Lynch, Syster, Emrick. Bridge.

Familiar Wednesday and Friday devotions in the auditorium: special as- semblies that spice up the school year: school dances with name orchestras and put-on-a- record,the-gang's-all-here after-school dances: refreshments at football and basketball games: these are just a few of the oh-so-essential, extra activities that the Student Counsel under Mr. Iarnes R.

M ISS Evelyn Baxter 81 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY VOTING FOR OFFICERS of their choice, National Honor Society members Ioanne Kostley, Margaret Washinko, Barbara Beatty, Mary Ellen Berneski. Malinda Massena, Margaret Hazlett. Virginia Bowman, and Mary Yafchak desig- nated Barrie Moberg as the man to lead them. Americas intelligentsia in embryo form is what Talent Scout Bayer found at National Hon- or Society meeting. The Society, directed by Mr. Iames R. Beatty, embodies in its membership rules the highest virtues of life-scholarship, leadership, character, and service. Only those applicants -15 percent of the senior class and five percent of the junior class-who can meet the exacting qualifications are accepted for membership. Iuniors whose rank in the upper fourth of their class and approbation by the faculty have enabled them to become members serve as officers the year following their acceptance and take charge of initiation. Barrie Moberg wore the scarlet cap and gown of president in this year's ceremony. Acting as symbols of the PREPARING INITIATION gowns for the annual ceremony are National Honor Society officers: Treasurer Margaret Hazlett, Student Council Repre- sentative Mary Ellen Bemeski, High Post Reporter Mary Yafchak, Vice-president Ioanne Kostley, Sec- retary Margaret Washinko, and President Barrie Moberg. Society's four cardinal virtues and torch attend- ants were Vice-president Ioanne Kostley, Sec- retary Margaret Washinko, High Post Reporter Mary Yafchak, and Treasurer Margaret Hazlett. Student Council Representative Mary Ellen Berneski, Malinda Massena, Barbara Beatty, and Virginia Bowman also wore the traditional gowns in the formal initiation. The Latrobe High School chapter of the National Honor Society came into being in 1925. From that time until 1948, 738 Latrobe Students -293 boys and 445 girls-have had their names placed on the Society's membership roll. The Society, sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals, has become the foremost high school honorary organization in the country. Shhhl Three seconds BROADCASTERS. . .

This is station BCC, the Broadcasting class of Latrobe High School, bringing you news, flash news, direct from the LHS newsroom. Louis B. Bayer doesn't even need to inquire. This is undoubtedly the broad- casting class with one of its bi-weekly broad- casts that keep students up to date on all news. The broadcasters, under the direction of Miss Mary Louise McBride, adviser, also took on a new project this year-participation in Marching Forward With Latrobe, a program sponsored by the Greater Latrobe Chamber of Commerce, and broadcasted every Friday from the Manos Theater over Greensburg station WHIB. This way, to find tomorrow's Winchell's and Hope's, Louis could just switch on his radio at home and listen to the LHS broadcasts. While Mr. Bayer toured the school he dis- covered that the broadcasting class popped up everyhere. Script writers headed by Lindy out for advertising ideas to promote play and athletic ticket sales campaigns. Equally busy were Katy Kloos, news editor, and her tireless assistants, Barbara Dorn, Sally Snyder, Irene Kittey, Barrie Moberg and Geraldine Hurley. On the technical side Bob Edgar and Regis Kessler were studio managers. Pat Shaw work- ed especially hard at her job as production man- ager, trying to keep everything running smooth- ly. Don Hediors slaved in sound effects, having no end of trouble getting noises collected for the broadcaster's assembly production, Sorry, Wrong Number. loe Mosso supervised the sports reporting done by Iay Badstibner, Anth- ony Zenone, and Bill Eversole. High point of the 1948-1949 broadcasting year came the day before Christmas when B C C presented The Nutcracker Suite, complete with sound effects and Tchaikovsky back- ground music, over station WHIB. Strict attention to duty characterized Talent Scout Bayer's inspection of the Latrobe High School educational production:-that is almost all the time. Investigating causes and effects of smiling countenances and jolly twinkles in Latrobe High School students' eyes, Louis discovered they were caused by such things as football games, dances, the prom, and Moving-Up Day. In the unearthing of these vital statistics Louis himself became infected with their spirit. Throwing his official talent scout dignity to the Winds, Louis wiggled his hips, snapped his garters, and jitterbeared across the gym floor at the Daffy Dilly Dance. Louis' report sheets contained information on the Moonlight Stag, the wummen-asks-the-fellers-if'n-they-kin-ketch- 'em-but-we'll-all-wear-blue-jeans-anyhow- Tom- my Hawkins Dance, and the so important, so sophisticated, so dreamy prom. But Louis nev- er really realized the true significance of an L.H.S. dance until he experienced it himself. The same ''experience-teaches-better-than- anybody rule held true in the case of football games. Going out to the athletic field armed with pince-nez, pencils, and account books, Louis suddenly found himself dripping with mustard, ringing a cowbell, and yelling DoWn in front! Clirnaxing 180 work-Weary days, Moving- Up Exercises poked a little fun at studen s, fac- ulty, and school life in general. Naturally Louis B. Bayer was there checking proceedings. There were those old time-worn gags: the inevitable greenie with his inevitable handbook: the li'l red school house scene with its gum-chewing, chattering, be-bowed, short pantsed pupils. As he watched the upperclassrnen pushing up another step and the seniors moving out into the wide, wide World, Talent Scout Bear put his coldly impersonal hand into his coldly im- personal pocket, pulled out a coldly impersonal handkerchief and blew his coldly impersonal nose for dear life.

Bayer a sample of their prowess by whipping rival Derry Township in the last game of the season by a l2-0 count. K- In the lid-lifter, a determined Wildcat squad travelled to Penn to meet the Indians. The Orangemen dropped this arc-light contest 6-O. The home opener the following Saturday brought Hurst's Scarlet Hurricane to town. Back Eddie Ponko led the Red and White to victory as they crushed the Cats 13-0. Lady Luck played havoc with the Orange squad at Don- ora. After sixty minutes of play the home team had seven markers, while the visitors had only a half-dozen. The point after touchdown gave the Dragons the victory. A field goal try by Corky Glamp fell short of the goal posts. Ieannette's Iayhawks then invaded Latrobe have the usual handshake before game time. for an AA tilt and handed the Wildmen a 20-6 reverse. Bay Greene's superior play stood out in the Iayhawk victory. The Win kept the lays of Coach A. Markley Barnes in AA title play. The Wildcat tally came on a pass from Keefe to Marshall. The tides of fortune remained unchanged when the Altoona Lions entertained the Cats. The home team won the tussle 32-6. The defeat at the hands of the Maron dealt the Orange and Black their eleventh straight loss over a period of two years. Charley Carpowich scored La- trobe's six points on a 60 yard canter in the first quarter. Finally. Lady Luck smiled on the Wildcat gridders and they conquered a visiting Sharon squad in an AA tilt by a 20-19 margin. Paul lContinued on page ninetyl FOOTBALL MANAGERS faithfully serving the gridders during last season were Charles Noll, Richard Kuhn, Ronald Frye. Dick Campbell, and lack Kunkle.

Touchdowns were scored by Den- ny, end, Domenic, guard, and Roscoe, back. The win evened the two year series with the Sharon eleven. The following week, Greens- burg came from the County Seat to help com- memorate Coach Wild Day and dealt the Cats a 20-0 lashing. Although the gridders lost the battle their spirit never died. The celebration of homecoming day made the weekend a little brighter for the hometown followers. A visit to Wilkinsburg proved disastrous as the Orange contingent Went into the contest like Wildcats and came out like kittens. At the kickoff Corky Glamp grabbed the ball and raced 87 yards for a touchdown. The Holy City gridders rolled back, however, and drub- bed the Orangemen 33-6. Glarnp's run was the longest of the season. In the last game the Wildmen clipped the Derry Twp. Eagles by handing them a 12-U loss. Derry was completely outplayed in this Armis- tice Day tussle. Rudy and Glamp scored the Cat's touchdowns. With the completion of this game the patriotic day rivalry with the Golden Eagles was discontinued. Uniontown replaces the Blue and Gold as Latrobe's Armistice Day foe. The Birds will be met earlier in the schedule. Eighteen gridders received letters for their turf service. They are Paul Roscoe, Iim Pevar- nik, Mike Veto, Clyde McKelvey, Tom Carbon- ara, Martin Statler, Bob Callahan, Iack Denny, Gerald Schmucker, Al Nigro, George Halula, Elmer McDonald, Bob Morris, Iohn Rudy, Don- ald Domenic, Francis Glamp, Charles Carpo- wich, and Fred Wegley.

V. Wild, pulled themselves together just in time as they went on to beat Ieannette in a playoff game for the section title, the first in 13 years for Latrobe High School. The cagers opened their pre-league season on December 4 by traveling to Irwin to receive a 60-50 setback. They got on the winning trail by downing Somerset and then took Irwin in a return game. Uniontown stopped the Orange cold by a Z5-22 score. The Cats then began a long ll game winning streak by dumping Som- erset again besides visiting Brentwood and Uni- ontown crews. New Year's Eve ended the pre- league season as the Orangemen defeated the Alumni, Bl-57.

The next victim to fall under the Cat's onslaught was an invading North Huntingdon quintet. In an important first half game Jeannette was blasted by a 55-39 count. Continuing first semester action the La- trobe hardwooders had to come from behind to surprise a tough Greensburg outfit to the tune of 44-41. Hurst was easily downed in a follow- ing tilt. Scottdale was knocked out of first place by the Orange aspirants 43-42 as the first half ended. Derry Township fell again 61-27 as the teams came into the home stretch. But an aggressive North Huntingdon five upset the Orange brigade on the Bulldog floor 52-46, to end the winning streak. Latrobe's cagers drop- ped their second straight game, the first on the home court, as they bowed to the Ieannette lays, 55-44. Coach Wild's varsity then travelled to Greensburg and fell for the third straight time, 47-45. They pulled themselves together again by dumping Hurst at home. In the final game of the season the home team downed Scottdale to tie for section crown with Ieannette. In the title playoff game at Pitt Pavilion the Wildcats were crowned Section ll champs as they showed Ieannette an almost impregnable defense and handed the Jays a 45-34 loss. In the quarter finals of the WPIAL tourney the Cat's luck ran out as they dropped to Midland by the count of 36-34 ending one of the finest court seasons in Latrobe High School history. 93 SEASONS COURT RECORD 50 ...........,...,.......

Bayer donned outdoor togs and watched the host of athletes turn their attention to track, tennis, and golf as the Latrobe High School minor sports program surged into the athletic limelight. The Wildcat tracksters, under the tutelage of Coach C. S. Westfall, began working the kinks out of their legs to prepare for the oval sport. With two lettermen, Dick Hauser and Max Fontaine, paving the way the thinclads also entered County, WPIAL, and PIAA compe- tition besides a six-meet schedule. An encoun- ter with Connellsville started the schedule. HARVARD CUP runner-up Earl Karasack pauses from clay court warfare with the tennis racquet in his hand that he used to gain the second place trophy. With a Whole host of lettermen returning. the Orange and Black netmen, under the direc- tion of Coach G. D. Rise, offered opponents stiff resistance in defending their WPIAL tennis title. Earl Karasack captured honors for the 1948 squad as runner-up in the annual Harvard Cup Tournament last fall. Anxious to surpass last year's accomplish- ments, the Wildcat golf team, coached by W. E. Yates, took off to the Latrobe Country Club grounds to practice for their coming interschol- astic matches. The links squad had many vet- erans, headed by Iay Lavin and Ioe Workman, on hand for the first spring drills. CHEERLEADERS Walker, Maher, Eversole.

Hugh Shields. Iay Lavin, and Don Fenton, school champion. With the completion of the class Volleyball tournaments, Sportsman Louis B. Bayer shucked off his athletic togs and wiped a slightly damp- ened brow. Louis Was bushed . He had en- joyed the sportsmanship and teamwork through the never-a-dull-moment year, but the strenuous activity was just a little more than he had expected. Senior boys from the third period health class had him on their side when they won the class basketball crown by vanguishing the sec- ond period freshmen, 19-18. Harkness led the winners with eight points. On the girls' side of the picture Friday eighth period juniors trimmed Friday seventh to cop the title by a 26-18 count. Louis watched seniors do it again in the boys' home room tournament as 102 pounded out a 34-15 victory over freshman room 206 to claim the championship. Iunior girls brought the home room banner to 116 in their section of the tournament. They outclassed freshman room 212 by a 23-10 count. Iohnstin led the scoring for 116. In the ping-pong tournament Louis was in the bleachers cheering when Don Fenton, sen- ior, upset last year's champ, Iay Lavin, for the school laurels. Fenton downed Lavin twice in the three-game championship series to take the title among the group of 28 contestants entered in the tourney.
