'Y' V' v - Wiiitcr or summer, Langley High School is U one of the most beautiful buildings in litts' liurgh. Officially opcncd in June, 1913, it was named for Pittsburglfs rcnown-.sd Samuel Picrf pont Langley. The building is constructed on the college Gothic model out of Bczivcr County sandstone. To its loyal alumni and studcnls, this building is indeed stately, symbolizing Langlcy's motto: Loyalty, Honor and Service. In the spring Nature paints a beautiful picture for all Langleyites to admire as they take short-cuts to classes through the court. Then the forsythia bushes and the bridal wreath are in full bloom. Come forth into the light of timeg let Nature be your teacher. In May, 1929 the Langley sundial was placed in the court, the prize for winning first place in the Clean-Up Campaign. Because the style is broken, the sundial no longer indicates the time. Chermaine Lewis and Irene Boehm are interested in its original operation. spring and f by a group of early Langleyites who, directed by Miss Hazel Wedd, landscaped this section, shown to the right.

Manager of Athl t' ' M e ics, r. Truman Cheeseman, Voca- fs. i Dr. Mates decided, soon after he came to Langley in August, 1947, that he wished to dis- cuss administrative policies with a committee of his teachers, membership on which was to rotate until all faculty members had been given the opportunity to serve. This plan was inaugurated in November, 1947, when the Advisory Council was organized. Since then the group has met bifwcekly on Thursdays at 8:00 A. M. Another innovation this year has been the organization of the faculty into departmental committees for discussion of problems relating to their special subject fields. These committee groups are shown on the following pages. Dr. Ned W. Rankin fleftj has been at Langley since 1923. He organized our first school band and ny years he taught mathematics. These past six years he has been vice principal. directed it. For ma lHl ADMI ISTRATIVI STAH Above is Mr. Truman Cheesenmn, vocational coun- selor. Each year he admits about five hundred students to Langley, planning their courses of study. He discharges approximately the same number. including graduates. Miss Mary S. Fornwalt, the school librarian. is seen here working at the main desk in the library. On the left is Annabel Grove, one of her faithful student librarians. ADMINISTR.-x'i'1vE Dirniis ARE CLEfxR1.Y DliI'INEI'D To avoid overlapping of duties, an adminisf trative chart was devised this year to make clear to all faculty members the sphere of each adminf istrative oHicer's duties. Dr. Mates retained, of course, general responsibility and supervision of the school's staff and students. The making of the schedule, the handling of disciplinary prohf lems, the supervision of the lunch hour and the control of tardiness hecame headline duties of the vicefprincipal. The vocational counselor retained the varied assortment of duties which arise naturally out of his work: job placement, honor rating, tuition, scholarships, summer school scheduling, religious education, work applications and guidance. Mrs. Elizabeth Hornick is both girls' adviser and activities director. She is assisted by a large group of student-aides. Shown below with her is Alice Snowden, taking dictation. ,4 A Il All IHI Here is the man who is a major factor in keeping both teachers and students warm and happy: the custodian, Mr. Melville Osborn. He supervises all phases of build- ing care. On clear days, once a month, he rings the flre-bell, as he is doing here. m MEMBERS Ill Mrs. Ruth Ashley fleftj, the book clerk, takes charge of all textbooks and school supplies. She receives lost articles and returns found ones. In addition to these duties, she is the school's cashier. On Fridays she sells street car passes to those students who commute. Those tempting delicacies that here dot the counter may be purchased everyday in the Langley cafeteria for eight cents apiece. They are made under the direction of Mrs. F. Ditullio fbelowJ,the school's dietician. Special affairs, such as the senior luncheons, are also supervised by her. --. .... THE lA lllll HIGH SCHIHH FAIIIIHY Dr. R. E. Ricketts, a Langley grad- uate, became our school doctor in September. He gives a thorough physical examination to every student who enters the school, plus follow-up examinations after illness and periodic check-ups. Here, he is testing the heart of James Pamozzi, a 7B. 41 These three members of the physical education department are responsible for developing an adequate program for the physical betterment of all Langley boys. In this picture Coaches Fred A. Bode, Lloyd L. Russell and Laurence Danver discuss the training program for the boys' classes. The girls have a physical fitness program developed somewhat differently from that of the boys. They play basketball, mushball, volleyball and tennis, but on an intramural instead of an interscholastic basis. Here, Miss Muriel C. Finlay and Miss Helen A.

The Fehruary 1949 semester witnessed a radical change in the junior high school program. An attempt was made, as an experiment, to prof vide for individual needs, interests and aptitudes. Required suhjects now are: English, social studies, arithmetic, science and physical education. Art, music and vocational suhjects are elective. ln the ninth grade, algchra is offered to those who made xi normal grade in arithmeticg others take general mathematics.

The senior girls make dresses, coats and suits worthy of any style show. The girls in cooking delight in the six newlyfequipped kitchenettes which give the real home atmosphere. Nor are the hoys less happy as they prepare in various shops for the trades which many of them will actually pursue as adults. Individual projects are stressed in mechanical drawing. In print shop the senior hoys print the Langleycm, programs and other printed material for the school. Those in wood shop make tahles, lamps, stands and desks. Recently introduced in machine shop are the plastic and alumnium articles which the hoys delight to make.

Chess is an ancient game that has challenged the intelligence of men for centuries. One legend says the Queen of Siam invented it, hut others give credit to the Chinese, to the Hindus and even to King Solomon. The King Solomons of Langley decided they were wise enough to try their wits at this challenging game once more. Inactive for a few years, the cluh was reorganized this past year. The members spent the year learning the rudif ments of the game. If enough skill is developed, the cluh will organize a chess team to take part in interscholastic chess matches.

THE 1949 AERONAUTWestreamflined! With the appointment of an entirely new group of faculty sponsors on September 30, the 1949 Aeronaut staff started rather late its work of preparing this yearbook for publication. But the book was ready for the new printer by the deadline on March I.. Campus Publishing Com' pany of Philadelphia was chosen to present this lirst edition to be printed by the oiffset process. The Strem Studios had previously been chosen as the official photographers. Most of the pictures in the Aeronaut were taken by Strem's, but Mr. Oscar Belles ably aided the photographic editor to take on-the-spot shots. A Langley alumnus, Robert'Leiper, '46, provided the beautiful court shots on Page 7. The Aeronaut is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association, which has its headquarters at the University of lvlinnef sota, Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Three of these were Alex Sedar fleftj, Richard Lambert Ccentex-D, captain, and Jack Daley Crightl. Sedar, playing left tackle, recovered the fumble in the Allegheny game that made Langley's twelve points possible. Lambert, right guard, was chosen by the PITTSBURGH PRESS to be Langley's Most Valuable Player. Daley, playing his first season here, won the first-string fullback job and earned honorable mention on the all-city eleven. Checking in football equipment are the coaches and the managers of the 1948 team: Assistant Coach Lloyd Russell, Manager Joseph Krall, Assistant Manager Robert Nolte and Head Coach Laurence Danver.

DEFEAT'S NOT VICTORY, BUT 'TIS BOUGHT AS DEAR. Stowe: 28-Langley: 6. This opening game under the floodlights at Stowe Field proved that Langley was inexperienced and needed practice, but it also produced a touchdown by Ray Glausscr and some brilliant running by Joe Leone, Crofton: 38-Langley: 13. Crafton, a class A titlefholder this season, won easily but could not prevent two Langley touchdowns by Tom Parrish and Jack Daley. Howdy Coughlin converted the extra point. St. Clairsuille: 0-Langley: 6. This victory was the high tide of the season. St. Clairsville, unbeaten in seven years, was not prepared for the hidden power Langley uncorked when Joe Leone, from pass formation, faked and then swivel-hipped for twentyfone yards to the eleven' yard line. From there he spiraled a perfect pass into Bill Ploumis' outstretched arms for the touchdown. Perry: 0-Langley: 0. On a dreary, dismal day the league opened play on a field that was a swamp. joe Leone sloshed eighteen yards to the twofyard line at the end of the game, but the whistle blew, and the rain won. Carrick: 7-Langley: O. Carrick scored so quickly in this game that slaughter seemed possible, but Langley tightened and held for the rest of the game. Joe Leone and jack Daley produced some dazzling runs. Ute Parrish tried the air lanes, but Langley could not score. Oliver: O-Langley: 14. This was the only league game Langley won. Ute Parrish's brilliant quarterbacking featured two long drives of fifty' five and fifty yards. Leone gave a dazzling display of running, one for forty yards being the longest touchdown run of the season. Cough- lin converted both of Leone's scores. Fifth: 13-Langley: 7. This was Fifth's turn to score an upset. Daley zoomed forty'seven yards to the two, then went over for the first score. The rest was all Fifth. Allegheny: 13-Langley: 12. Ray Glausser, Vince Petti and Ute Parrish scared the heart out of Allegheny in the final game of the season. Glausser made two touchdowns.

The first competition which the Langley quintet faced in its series of pre-season games was the Dormont High squad on our floor on December 8. The team put on an impressive show after a slow start and made the game a real battle. The Maroon fell short by seven points, taking the low end of a 33-40 score. One of the many battles that took place is pic- tured here as Bob Stout fcenterj, aided by Joe Leone Cpartly hiddenj, goes after the rebound. Jim Marshall flower leftj waits for the ball. Bill The pre-season games played by Lang- ley High squad brought many players to the attention of Coach Danver. When he made his decision as to who should start the season's first game, we were not surprised to see Crightj Bill Ploumis as center, joe Krall as guard, Gino Giocondi as guard, Otto Parrish as forward and jim Marshall as forward. Because the team showed weakness in foul shooting in their pre-season games, Coach Danver gave special attention to this technique in practice. Here, he is pointing out to Chuck Kimberling the correct form at the foul line. ie ,A My A tense moment for promising free- style swimmers: Chuck Dooley, Ray Glausser, Bob Sullivan and Don Wirth.

SwiMMERs ENJOY SUCQESSFUL SEASON The 1949 record of the Swimming Team was certainly creditable, showing five wins and three losses. The team defeated Connelly 4065, Westiiighiiuse 57f18, Carrick 48f27, Alumni 41f34 and Allegheny 45f21, losing only to Perry 44-22, Oliver 4620 and South Hills 4323. Pat Scolieri, varsity diver, prepares to do a standing one-half gainer. Interested team-mates observe him: Robert Sullivan, Dooley, Glausser, McDonald, William Sullivan, Wirth, Lowry and Coach Russell. In the City SemifFinals Ray Clziusser was first in the 100 yard and second in the 50 yard freefstyle. In the AllfCity Finals, held at the Allegheny High School pool on February 25, Ray Glausser placed third in both the 100 yard and the 50 yard freefstyle.

'yt 2 Ek- if r ,fa 1 X J ' y h A 1 - i HHS, MIITHER, WE HAVE The girls of the junior high school gymnasium classes are illustrating, in the three pictures above, the various techniques which are designed to teach co- ordination of body and mind. In the first two pictures the girls are presenting the head-stand, the back--bend YES, OUR GIRLS To develop cofoperative living, good sports' manship, appreciation of others' abilities, leadership and followership are the aims of the Girls' Physical Education Department. Intraf mural activities, which are organized competitive sports within the school, give the girls the opportunity to develop these aims-to be good sportsmen as well as good players. Basketball is the major sport on the intramural program. There are two divisions of this sport: the senior group, comprising girls of the eleventh and twelfth grades, and the junior group com' prising girls of the ninth and tenth grades. Eighty-one girls came out for basketball in the senior division, thirty-nine, in the tenth grade of the junior. The system of double elimination was used in the senior division. After a team's second loss, it was eliminated. The winner of the tournament was the team that had won from all other teams. and the neck shoulder-stand. The third picture shows the girls in the Rufty-Tufty square dance, the one best-liked by the junior school. This dance requires a sure-footed skill, a grace and an ease which help to develop poise and grace in carriage. PLAY GAMES Its members were entitled to thirty additional points toward their letters. Members of losing teams in any one game received five points, the winners receiving ten. The tenth grade girls, with six teams, played a roundfrobin in the junior division. Each team played all the other teams. The team winning all its games was declared winner of the tournament. Volleyball and mushball were also included in the intramural program. Volleyball was obviously the more popular of these two minor sports, for 170 girls participated in it, whereas only 154 reported for mushball. The double elimination system was used also for volleyball and mushball. The loss of two games disqualified the team for further play. Interest in girls' athletics increases year by year. This is indicated chiefly by the number of girls who report so willingly to take part in a program that is scheduled for after-school hours. GIIHS' SPIIIH l Membership in Senior Leaders Club provides a delightful com- bination of work and fun. To the right the entire club gives a demonstration of pyramid-build- ing. These pyramids give an out- let for originality, at the same time testing strength and endur- ance. Wc'll bet you, Mother, that you can't do this! Here are four members of the Senior Leaders Club displaying their skill on the stall-bars: Adele Taylor, Margery Donovan, Marguerite Rawlings and Alice Snowden. OOPS! Turn this upside down, and that's the way it reads. Hlllllll HHH, DAD! QTUR GIRLS WIN lVlED.'XLS, Tim! The girls who shine iii athletics are rewarded with two medals at the ciitl of their high school career. The highest award in girls' athletics is the Superior Leadership Award.

The lower picture presents the outstanding after-school referees: Dolores Dix, Elaine DeAngelis, Ruth Barrack, Anna Marie Roedler and Ethel Morgan.
