Cla la, Al e :so r As in the past, Kiski formed a strong student government organiza- tion to represent the students and create a friendly union between faculty and students. Many of the council of this year had been members the previous year thus providing veterans on student affairs. At the beginning of the year the council devoted its time to the forming of the junior and Senior classes. After this was accomplished they at once settled to pro- moting social life by sponsoring a dance. This dance was a huge success and enjoyed by all. The next council project was the handling of the yearbook. This proved a test of the council's strength but the task was conquered. At the close of the year the Freshman and Sophomore class elections were held to insure Kiski of organized classes next year. The student council, during the close of this successful year, discussed topics which will prove advantageous to future Kislci students. Also an import- ant factor of student interest during the school year was the creation by the council of a Student Fund which figured in the care of deficits that sometimes result in the management of the dances and school papers. 8 Board of Trustees We know little or nothing about the Board of Trustees and how they affect us. Actually, they are the greatest factor in making our school life and schedule what it is. L. M. CLARK, President .......,... .......... S altsburg PARK J.

Bill, when he first came to Kiski was as quiet as Saltsburg at nine o'clock, but after awhile he loosened up and became more like Hall's Drug Store on Saturday night.

Simpson, liruy This year's junior class is one of the largest at Kiski. It consists of thirty-four red-blooded boys. The juniors have been strong participants in sports and inter-school activities throughout the school year. This class has many boys on the varsity football, baseball, basketball, and tennis teams. It also has members on the Kiski Minutes, Library Club and KSKI. The event for which the junior Class will be remembered is the junior Prom. They worked constantly on this dance by making substitutes for materials which have been rationed by the government and by using what materials they had on hand. In the end they were rewarded for their laborg the dance was a big success and was classed as one of the best in Kiski's history. Next year the Senior's shoes will be more than iilled by these capable juniors and we are sure that next year will be a great success with the present juniors at the helm. 23 Sophomore Class FIRST ROW! f Erhard, Baker, Wurmb, Burt SECOND ROW -- Burchard, Everson, Roberts, Johnston, McNelis. Gralenholer THIRD ROW-Olix'er, 1. Waters, jaspert, Mitchell, Lutz, llveiwine, Betaeley, Dunlap The Sophomore Class, although it has only eighteen boys, is a well thought of and respected class. There aren't many boys that are outstand- ing in different activities but that is to be expected at this stage. Jed Burt, jack Betteleygand jack Oliver hold up the scholastic part of the class. They are Honor Roll students. Paul Everwine, Bill Everson, Bob Lutes, Bill jaspert and Ralph Johnston hold up the athletic end They all served as substitutes to the varsity squads with the exception of Everson who played varsity basketball and baseball. By the way they have conducted themselves this year we are sure they will make an outstanding Junior Class. We hope that they will do as well, if not better, than the present junior Class. They are all looking forward to coming back and spending another enjoyable year together at Kiski. Although there are many others in this class not mentioned, they have all played a definite part in making the Sophomore Class what it is. 24 Freshman Class FIRST ROW --- Hart, Fulton. Rosen, F.

By the looks of the way they handled themselves, they will be a very successful class. Although they are a little small to take an active part in athletics they will, in future years, hold up the athletic standards of Kiski. They did not participate in school activities to any extent. john Tighe was a member of the Kiski Minutes Staff and Honor Roll, jack Smith and jack Wiiie and many others play on the softball team. Doug Sause is one of the assistant managers of the baseball team. Next year the class will be more experienced and we are sure they will be an out- standing Sophomore Class. 25 Junior School FIRST ROW-D, Kneubel, Forbes, Snooks, Brinker, Hough, R. Miller SECOND ROWfjize Lawson, jim Lawson. Hutchinson, Malenfunr, Kropl, Muginot, Holton The juniors are those little fellows always running around in every- body's path. Although at times they seemed bothersome, they actually con- tributed more to the school than we realize. We find that a few of their members have distinguished themselves by helping in our publication of the KISKI MINUTES, and by holding a few of the lightweight positions on the wrestling squad. Their salesmanship ability was proved by the many cases of soft drinks they have sold the students of Kiski at double prices. We cannot forget them in the role of waiters and waitresses at the junior Class Dance. In all, the juniors, under the direction of Mr. Carlos and Mr. Brinker, were extremely helpful. 26, Hi, lflllfll-1' f A .spill Ill the making H UM that .'

Blessed with hoth weight and speed, the Iilack and Wliite proved hard to beat on any gridiron. Mr. ll. L. Marks' instruction in the many line points of the rllforma- tion was as near perfect as is possihle. Time and avafn Coach Marks proved himself to he the complete master of the iggune. Assisting in the teaching of the 'I'-formation was Mr. If. Zeigler, who served as line coach, demonstrating to the linemen the correct way to play the guard and tackle positions. XVith Smith and Swenson holding down the end po'-1iti.:ns. Sevwr-s and Breakstone at tackles, Schwartz and Wfaters at gguarcl-a, and Don Moore at center, Kiski presented a formidable defensive line to its opponents, one that was also equally capahle of paving the way for the host of speedy hacks that were hehind them. Led hy its triple-threat quarterback and captain, Bill Reid. the Kiski hacklield was a con- stant worry to opposing play CAPTAIN BILL REID 51 ALL-STAR ACTION ers and coaches. With such boys as Dornan at left halfback, Anderson or Rinn at right halfback, and Richardson, or Morgan at fullback, Kiski had the caliber of backs that could run rampant through the opposing team, and usually did. As the season opened, the gridmen found themselves with only one week of practice behind them. However, evidence of the power of the Kiski eleven was displayed from the opening whistle as the gridmen turned in an easy 25-13 victory over Norwin. Big joe Richardson scored the opening touchdown for Kiski on a line plunge and Bill Reid ran the end for the extra point. In the second quarter a pass from Reid to Dornan netted another six points for the Black and White, while Norwin scored its first touchdown via the aerial route. The score at the end of the second quarter stood 13-6 in favor of Kiski. A 90-yard run by Reid on the open- ing kickoff of the second half and an off-tackle play, also by Reid, in the fourth quarter, gave the Black and White a comfortable lead and allowed Coach Marks to send in members of the second and third teams. Norwin then scored its final points but the damage had already been done and the game ended with Kiski ahead 25-13. The Black and White ran up against a scrappy Derry Township team in its second grid battle but withstood a two-touchdown second-half rally to win 19-12. Kiski scored early in the game on a 30-yard pass from Dornan to Swenson and added another touchdown a few minutes later on a 90-yard dash off-tackle by Reid. In the second quarter, Reid went over for another touchdown on a quarterback sneak. The second half saw Derry tally two touchdowns against an over-conhdent Kiski team but the Black and White held long enough to win 19-12. The Annual Homecoming Day game with Mercersburg on October 14 resulted in the third victory of the season for the Black and White, as 32 the visitors fell before the powerful Kiski grid machine, 12-0. Tom Dornan scored both touchdowns for Kiski, one in the first quarter on a three-yard plunge and the second, in the final period, on a pass from Reid that cov- ered 40 yards. The Black and White scored its fourth successive victory of the season as they trounced a strong team from Vandergrift, 26-6. After a scoreless first quarter, Kiski caught fire and scored three touchdowns in the second period to lead 20-0 at the half. Swenson scored the first tally on a 30-yard pass from Reid after which Reid scored twice on 25- and 45-yard runs. Stan Schwartz booted two of the extra points. Vandergrift came back in the second half to score on a 20-yard end run but Dornan added another T. D. for the Black and White on a 25-yard run through left tackle. In their second battle with Mercersburg, the gridmen defeated their oldest rivals again, this time 13-0. During the first half, Kiski was kept busy defending its goal against the steamroller drives of the academy eleven, but touchdowns by Richardson and Dornan in the third quarter assured victory for the Black and White. A rough and rugged football eleven from New Kensington handed Kiski its first defeat of the season, 19-0 in a game played on the muddy Ken High gridiron. New Kensington displayed terrific power throughout the game while the Black and White was entirely unable to get its offensive rolling for any length of time. In a post-season benefit game played at the Vandergrift stadium. the Black and White was defeated by a strong team of All-Stars from high school teams in the Kiski Valley, 19-13. Behind 6-0 at the half, Kiski came back to take a 7-6 third quarter lead on a touchdown by Reid and an extra- point pass to Tom Smith. Dornan scored for Kiski in the final period but the All-Stars had pushed over two previous touchdowns to win the game.

The jayvees played four games against superior competition and failed to come through with a victory, although they played spirited football throughout the year. Opening the season against Avonmore High School, the junior Varsity was defeated by the heavier and more experienced Avonmore team. Next the jayvees lost a hard-fought game to the Vandergrift junior Varsity and, in their second game with Avonmore, were again decisively defeated. In the final game of the season, the junior Varsity was a much improved outfit but again met defeat, this time at the hands of the St. Vincent junior Varsity. Although the junior Varsity failed to win a game this year, the mem- bers of the team enjoyed themselves immensely and it is hoped that their experience will be of benefit to next year's Varsity Football Team. 54 Basketball FIRST RLJW ef- W. Moore, Scott. Swenson, Reid. Everson SECOND ROW' - Mgr. B. Miller, Richardson, Brinker, Ramsey, Fetzer, Coach Marks Playing the most difficult schedule ever attempted by a Kiski floor team, Coach Marks' quintet displayed an excellent brand of basketball throughout the season. Although winning only eight games while losing an equal number, the Black and White performed in highly creditable fashion as they turned in victories over such strong opponents as johns- town Catholic, Norwin, and St. Vincent. This year's team was not of the exceptionally tall variety but what the boys lacked in height they made up for in speed and agressiveness. At the forward positions were Captain Dick Swenson, a tall lanky tloorman who was outstanding as a point-maker and rebounder, and Dick Scott, the smallest boy on the squad but one who was continually among the high scorers. Bill Everson, a tall, well-built fellow, held down the pivot spot and could be relied upon to get more than his share of the rebounds. Play- ing the guard positions were Bill Reid, as agressive a player as can be found 35 anywhere and one who was equally outstanding as a point-maker, rebound- er, and ball-handler, and Bill Moore a smooth floorman who could always be counted on when the team was in need of a few points. Playing the role of substitutes were Bill Ramsey, a scrappy, fleet-footed boy who saw plenty of action, Carl Fetzer, a rugged ball-player who never became ruffled even in the most thrilling game, and Bill Brinker, a tall floorman who was outstanding as a defense man and rebounder. The Black and White opened the season by losing to a skyscraper quintet from Penn High School, 25-16. In their second encounter the floorman dropped a close one to Vandergrift and then went on to win over two of the strongest teams in the district, Norwin and St. Vincent. After defeating Saltsburg, 42-22, Kiski again found Penn High unbeatable and again ended up on the short end of the score. The Black and White got revenge for an earlier setback by winning over Vandergrift, 42-36, and followed this victory with a 39-38 victory over Johnstown Catholic in what was probably the most thrilling game of the season. Norwin proved too much for Kiski in their second meeting and the Black and White came out on the short end of a 60-35 score. Kiski again found the victory road as they turned in a 39-33 victory over Indiana and, after a momentary setback by St. Vincent, trounced Indiana for the second time. The Black and White then ran up against the toughest competition of the season as they were beaten by Central Catholic, 62--52, with Dick Scott scoring 23 points in a losing cause. Central also took the measure of the Black and White in their second engagement, this time by a 52-33 score. Kiski continued its losing ways by dropping a 52-37 decision to Johnstown Catholic, but snapped back to win the final game of the season with a 50-42 victory over Mercersburg.

Ruddock, Rinn, Hartman SILOND RIJW Hocking, Lutes, liveiwine, Berg, Cfoacli Marks After getting away to a slow start, Kiski's junior Varsity Basketball team developed into a smooth-working lloor quintet and, by the end of the season, was more than a match for any opponent in its class. Ably coached by Mr. L. Marks, jr., the jayvees showed marked improvement with each succeeding game throughout their short season. Opening the season against Indiana Laboratory School, the 'Iayvees were defeated by a 17-14 score. Vandergrift junior Varsity handed the Black and Wlmite its second defeat, 14-10, and the Indiana jayvees kept Kiski in its losing ways by gaining a 19-9 victory. The Iayvees found a winning combination in Hartman, Edwards, Fisher, Ruddock, and Rinn, and went on to win their last two games over Avonmore's junior Varsity, 32-22, and Indiana Laboratory School, 35-11. Most of the members of the 1945 junior Varsity will return next year and it is expected that they will form the nucleus of a successful Varsity Basketball team. 38 Hall-League Basketball FIRST ROVU-Copeland, l.unt, Bowers, Clark. Allvc.tsnn SECOND RIJW- Neleigh, Wurmh, Hnnsxikcl' The 1945 Hall-League Basketball Championship was won by the fast-moving, skyscrapers of Fair Hall, a team that was beaten only once throughout the season. The championship quartet consisted of Roger Clark and Lee Albertson at forwards, big jim Bowers at center, and Don Moore and Fred Lunt at guards, with Chuck Copeland, Nails Neleigh, Bob Wurmb, and Bus Honsaker making up a highly capable group of reserves. The rugged five from Towers provided the only outstanding compe- tition faced by the champions during the season, they being responsible for the single setback suffered by the towering boys from Fair. In games with Wilson, Reese, and Paradise, the champs experienced some anxious moments but their speed and height gave them the needed advantage when an unexpected situation had to be met. As has been typical of Hall-League floor games in the past, it was sometimes difficult to figure out what sport the boys were attempting to play. At times the insignificant spectator thought the game to be a combi- nation of basketball, football, soccer, and wrestling. However the rough and tumble moments in the games made them more enjoyable to all and, except for a few floor burns and bruises, nobody was seriously hurt. 39 Wrestling FIRST ROXVW Holton, Hart, joe Lawson, Burt, Oliver, Milliman SECOND ROW!--f Benjamin, Danielsen, Courtney, Anderson, Pray THIRD ROW - f- Mgr, Katz, Blau.

Although the wrestlers failed to register any victories throughout the season, a great amount of needed experience was gained. This experience will not be wasted as far as Kiski is concerned, since many boys from this year's team will return next year. lt is expected that these boys will form the foundation of a successful wrestling team in 1946. The wrestlers opened the season by losing to a powerful Greensburg tcam and then traveled to Blairsville, where they suffered their second defeat. In the first home match, the Black and Wliite put up a determined fight against a strong Conemaugh team but lost the decision by a close 9-7 score. Return matches with Blairsville and Conemaugh were staged and, although the wrestlers showed much improvement over previous matches, the experience of their opponents proved too much of an obstacle and Kiski continued its losing ways. In their second meeting with Greensburg, who had become one of the best wrestling teams in the state, the wrestlers again met defeat. The final match of the season was a highly spirited affair with Mercersburg Academy, but Kiski's valiant efforts were to no avail, as they again suffered defeat. First Team positions were held by Hart, joe Lawson, Burt, Oliver, Milliman, Benjamin, Leitch, Danielson, Courtney, Pray, 'laspert and Wfaters. lt can be truthfully said that everyone of these boys did as well as their strength, skill, and knowledge of wrestling would permit, and Kislci will always remember their fighting spirit. 40 Baseball FIRST ROXV-Ramsey. Scott. Fetzer, Scholl SECOND RCJW- Bowers, Gray, Reid, Swenson, liverwine, Scliwaitz Tllllllg, Coach Muginot, Mgr. Mitchell, Mack, liveison, Anderson, Managers Sausc, Birchard, ar'ins As this Yearbook went to press Kiski's baseball season was in full swing. From all indications an extremely successful season was in store for the Black and White since a record of four wins against two defeats had already been compiled. Under the excellent guidance of Mr. F. L. Moginot, who knows practically all there is to know about the diamond sport and who has an exceptional talent for teaching the game to those willing to learn, it was highly probable that Kiski was to continue chalk- ing up a large majority of victories. The 1945 diamond team was one that was equally strong both de- fensively and offensively. The first base job was handled by Stan Schwartz, who was not an extremely smooth fielder but was constantly a menace to the opposing team when he stepped into the batter's box. At second base was Dick Scott, an excellent fielder who could make impossible fielding plays look easy. Co-captain Bill Reid, who was equally brilliant both at bat and in the field, held clown the shortstop position, while at third base we found Carl Fetzer, handling his position with outstanding skill. The outfield consisted of Bill Everson in left, Bill Ramsey in center, and jim Bowers in right. These three boys made up as tight a defensive out- field as could be found anywhere in high school and prep school base- ball circles and their hitting power brought fear to many an opposing 41 pitcher's heart. Co-captain Dick Swenson, a boy who could hit second base on a throw from home plate without fail, handled the catching duties brilliantly. Ace of the Kiski mound staff was Bob Gray, who could throw any kind of pitch possible and control it as well. Assisting in the pitching department were Ralph Scholl, a portsider with plenty of speed and a sharp-breaking curve ball, and Dick Scott, who was shifted from second base when a relief pitcher was needed. In the first game of the season, the Black and White was defeated by Saltsburg, 6-2. A group of errors in the second inning on the part of Kiski allowed Saltsburg to score all six runs. The Black and White snapped back with a 6-5 win over Plum Township, and went on to defeat Bell Township by a score of 6-4. Traveling to Mercersburg, the Kiski nine was defeated by the Academy, 5-3, in a thrilling game. In a return game with Saltsburg, the Black and White scored three runs in the last half of the seventh inning to win, 5-4. Games with St. Vincent, Saltsburg, Plum Township, and Bell Township have been carded and, in view of the improvement made by the Kiski nine, it is expected that the majorty of these games will end up in the victory column of the Black and White.

L. Marks, jr., the Kiski court- men had already gotten off to a fast start and they were expected to improve wit.. each succeeding match. Opening the season against Scottdale High School, the tennis team was aggreeably surprised at the ease with which they defeated their opponents. The score was 5-0. St. Vincent was next on the schedule and they, too, were no match for the classy Kiski boys, as they fell before the Black and White, also by a score of 5-0. Latrobe, however, proved to be too much for the netmen, as they handed Kiski its first defeat, 4-1. Finding the vic- tory trail once again, the Black and White defeated Scottdale in their return engagement, 4-1. Return matches with St. Vincent and Latrobe will finish out the season. The boys who made up the nucleus of the Kiski court team were Bates Tucker, Bill Moore, Roger Clark, Dain Milliman, and Clarence Howes. All five of these boys have proved to be tough opposition to any opponent and it is expected that they will continue their winning technique and bring the tennis season to a successful conclusion. 43 The Kifki Li neu lb Smilty Amar Willy Bill johnny' af..

The troupe then combined with the Kiski concert band and performed for the students and faculty. The show proved itself well, so continued by touring to the Indiana State Teachers College to provide entertainment for the college at the intermission of their dance.
