R. BLAUCH Superintendent This land of ours is far from perfect. We know that. One of your tasks is that of securing international rela- tions. Unless you do, another generation of our men will be sacrificing their lives on the bloody field of battlee dying for a lost cause, as so many of our kin have done in the past. You must remember what America meant to them, and never be discouraged, nor cease to labor toward that goal which was theirs, and which you must make your own. They had a dream-a hope,-a plan. They strove to make it real, but could not finish-that is for you to do. That precious heritage is yours. We only hope that we have helped you and encour- aged you, and that by having faith in you, we have given you increased faith in yourselves. 10 Board U MR. N. H. SLONAKER President MR. C. S.

S. students are given the privilege at the beginning of each year of enrolling in one of the religious education courses conducted and taught by members ofthe Ministerium of Leechburg, assisted by two or three ministers from neighboring towns. Two classes are offered for each grade, one for Catholic, and one for Protestant students. We wish to take this opportunity to express to the ministers, on behalf of the student body, a sincere appreciation of their time and eHiort. All students agree that the class itself is worth while, as well as the interest and value from the contact and fuller acquaintance with various ministers. Aeknowledoernents The Minetas StaFf takes this occasion to express thanks and appreciation to various individuals and groups who have contributed time and effort to the project of producing it: To Mr. Plank for his long-suFfering patience when everybody wiggled and just wouldn't smile. To the Members of the Faculty who were very lenient about excusing us to work on different parts of the proiect. To the Student Body who supported our various schedules to uphold the financial end. 13 Madaline Begonia Rose Tati New Eleanor Kundrak Lucille Rua Rosemarie Werthman Clara Carroll Carrol Markey Administrative Assistants Notice the lithe graceful figures pictured above! You'd be almost certain to guess they were mountain climbers. But no, they're only stair climbers- in other words, the oFfice girls. One of them is on hand each hour to answer the phone, to get supplies, to run errands, and to tell you why Jack Nigro, for instance, isn't where his file card says he is, or iust to chat with you in case you're bored and lonely. The ones who really take the beating are those on duty first and fourth periods, whose task it is to make ancl distribute absence lists and announcements, to admit late-comers, and in short, get the session started smoothly. We have found them always pleasant, capable, and helpful. In fact, come to think of it, we fear we didn't half appreciate their efforts. So here's our chance: Thanks a lot, Gals! 14 SENIUHS 1 I 5 LOUISE AKOS-doesn't get here too often, comes to 204 when she does, and doesn't make any fuss about it.

For this year of years we chose a group of four to be our guides in our final activities-Meredith Ludwig, Rose Tafi, Mike Mago, and Madeline Begonia. To start off with a bang, we had our pictures taken, chose and ordered our invitations and namecards, and ordered our caps and pennants. As a money raising project we sold magazine subscriptions, and we are planning a dance in the very near future. Our contribution to the entertainment part of the year was our 3-act farce entitled Going Places in which twelve of our number took part. Looking back over our past years, we find the following facts: September, 1944, was a red-letter day in our lives-the day when we really entered high school! As our leaders we chose Wendell Brewer, Paul Everwine, Stanley Tygielski, and Jack Nigro. On we went as Sophomores, coming nearer and nearer to our goal. Jack Nigro, Eleanor Kundrak, Stanley Tygielski, and Robert Nigro were elected to be our guides. The highlight of our Sophomore year was our annual Hop. Our Junior year was a full one indeed, since we had the usual arrangements and decisions to make. Our officers were Jack Nigro, Jack Meess, Eleanor Kun- drak, and Low Ponsetto. Class rings were ordered and were received March 15. The annual Junior Class play wasn't given, but we are sure that we made up for it in the senior class play. The Junior-Senior banquet was the last big event of the year. So much for the backward look. The future lies before us now, and it is our job to be the leaders and citizens needed to build a brighter and better world. 30 Uur Last Will and Testament We, the members of the Class of 1947 of the high school of the Borough of Leechburg, County of Armstrong, and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, having come to the last days of our existence as a class body, and being of sound mind, memory, and understanding do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament on this sixth day of June in the year of our Lord nineteen-hund red forty-seven.

He wants to enter Dartford College and has passed all the entrance examinations but the history. Now, Dr. Stubbs, the history professor, is exceedingly meticulous, to say the least, and Dr. Kimball, President of the College, has had to be severe in his attitude toward education versus football, especially since some criticism on that score has recently been forthcoming. Jeff Sterling, student football manager, is anxious to have Chuck on the football squad and wants to find a way to get him into Dartford. He enlists the help of Shirley, Dr. Kimball's daughter, and Rosemary Lee, another attractive co-ed, and Gladys Miller, a music student employed as maid by the Kimballs. The three conceive a plan to persuade Dr. Stubbs to let Chuck cram for the examination. However, while Jeff has gone to bring back Chuck, Rosemary remembers her cousin, Cuthbert, who is an excellent student, but who had arrived too late to take the entrance examinations. She and Shirley persuade Cuthbert that he will be the biggest hero on the campus if he will take the examination for Chuck and thus get Chuck into Dartford. When it is all over, then Dr. Stubbs, impressed with Cuthbert's knowledge of history, will want him to enter without further ado-thus killing two birds with one examination. Cuthbert takes the examination and, as was expected, impresses Dr. Stubbs very much. However, just at the critical moment, Jeff returns with Chuck, and the ruse is revealed to everyone, including President Kimball. Dr. Stubbs accuses the President of being in league with the young people, and President Kimball, insulted, fires the history professor. Everything looks hopeless, and, seemingly, everyone is in disgrace. However, undaunted, the young people try another tack. Possibly Dr. Kim- ball will be approachable if he thinks that Chuck's Aunt Kate, who has made millions in oil wells, will endow a new college library. Naturally, Dr. Kimball thinks that if there are any possibilities of an endowmen for the college, it is his duty to secure it. He can hardly be restrained, as he wants to see Aunt Kate at once. However, there is Aunt Kate to be persuaded as yet, so in order to keep Dr. Kimball from spoiling the venture, he must be kept away from Aunt Kate until she has been consulted on the plan. Mrs. Stubbs, who is trying to get her husband's iob back, disguises herself and pretends to be Aunt Kate. Florence Ward, a magazine feature writer who is willing to do anything to get her story, also pretends to be Aunt Kate. Finally the real Aunt Kate appears on the scene. She sees that everything turns out right for everyone concerned including Chuck, Cuthbert, Dr. Stubbs and the College. 33 lining Places CAST Dr. Walter Kimball, president of Dartford College ...,, ..................

The iuniors make up in full or in part such clubs as the Cooking Club, Camera Club, Sub-Debs, Teen-Timers, Art Club, and Tri-Hi-Y. Their chosen oFFicers are: President .. ,. ..,.,..,.,..,.,.., ,.,., . . . Louis Wargo Vice President . Renaldo Massimino Secretary .,.,. .. . Francis Diani Treasurer . ,. ,.., .,....,..,. . .... . . . Robert Demyan Almost immediately a meeting was called for the purpose of choosing class rings. These rings arrived in the middle of January, which was sooner than expected. In February of the following year caps, pennants, and emblems were ordered. They are emblazoned with the class colors, green and gold. The class takes a very active part in the music ensembles of the school. They are represented in the band, orchestra, chorus, and glee club. Four juniors won the distinction of going to Central-Western District Band, which is a rare honor. Our class assembly was presented in March. Under the capable direction of Mrs. Bigley, ten iuniors put on a play. These ten were Don Clarke, Kenny Bills, Jane Kirk, Pete Pityk, Elsia Edera, Bill Balash, Rosemarie Werthman, Berna Deane Singleton, Joanne Thomas, and Jo Anne Nicolson. Preceding the program musical selections were rendered by Alfred Marco, John Lege, Renaldo Massimino, Bob Miller, Neal Keefer, Iona Schumaker, Patty Meidus, Carroll Jean Markey, Catherine Kolenchak, and Andy Nigra. The last big event of the year was the Junior-Senior Banquet tendered to the seniors. I want to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors, Mr. Dzvonik, Mrs. Bigley, and Miss Artman, forthe splendid help and cooperation they gave us during the year. Closing here, I would like to wish the out-going Seniors all the luck in the world. 38 ROW II Danial Le'Sueur Louis Wargo Don Yetler Richard Booker Andy Baliz Joe Hritz Don Heilbrun Don Clark Melvin Roush John Toncini ROW III Doris Wasson Catherine Tira Lillian Righi Pauline Hamilton Theola Canto Iona Schumaker Dorlajean Klingensmith Doris Klingensmifh Helen Pettigrew Josephine Tira 39 Juniors ROW I Palfy Meidus Donna Bruner Clare Butler Joan Boward Mary Vereb Irene Bruner Shirley Graham Paity McCormick Alex Molnar John Toman ROW I Regina Gamble Elsia Edera Velma Armagost Rose Katz Josephine Demyanik ROW lll Janet Stull Marian Stitt Nora Belle McElfresh Betty Jane Eshelmcin Jo Anne Wilson Antionette Trogolo Lucy Rua Geraldine Mottello Veronica Mago Lottie Martin ROW IV Kenneth Bills Fred Lander Tom Kober John Besci Bill Balash Neal Keefer Bob Miller John Hofler James Shearer John Ferrick ROW ll James Heckman Andy Sluka John McCutcheon Mike Sterosky Louis Peyronel Juniors Donald Trese Roy Kunkle John Fressini Wilber Rose Andy Nigra , JW' 2 ,-- ' I -H s,, 3 X .. 1 ' it V13 lil 'MJQ if ls' . 40 Mgsfff.:1.,g Y ji- f .1 ' ,Q l ROW II Charles Brown Harry Wright Albert Begonia Edmond Davis Frank Bono Marlin Kasacialc Gene Wolfe Samuel Thomas John Jackson Bill Caveglia ROW Ill Elsie Fazio Joanna Sappe Annabelle Remaley Helen Shuster Frances Kroll Betty Valentine Dolores Thompson 41 Snphnmures ROW I Helen Milueslta Nancy Potter Martha Myers Mary Jane Burket Valeria Maiocka Darlene Grantz Josephine Tygielslu Helen Rarie Elizabeth Gamble Bronwyn Yetter ROW l Joan Hcrwick .lo Ann DeHainaut Ethel Kupas Isabelle Kupas Beverly Claypool Dorothy Starr Billie Klingensmith Reba Woody Sealia Carter ROW Ill Mary Paula Grafton Betty Hollis Dorothy Cooper Audrey Leeker Mariorie Klingensmith Mary Ann Paul Helen Sanford Irene Lipsie Alice Julius Dolores Goglio 42 Sophumums ROW II Lee Kuhns William Massey Mike Verel: Bill Kunkle Clifford Shaner Richard Ravetto Pete Shaley Albert Peyronel Wallace Shadle Sophomore 1945-1947 Class History ln the fall of 1945, one hundred and twenty-seven Freshmen were enrolled in L. H. S. As Freshmen, we all had a wider, a higher and a happier outlook on life and our relation to it, which is becoming more and more widely spread each passing year. After getting acquainted, the class elected as president Frank Bono who directed our activities throughout the year successfully. The Freshman girls, eager to get acquainted with their upperclassmen, ioined the Glee Club, Art Club, Tri-Hi-Y, and Home Economics Club, while the boys joined the Boys' Cooking Club, band, and tried for positions on the basketball and football squads. Some of the main events of our freshmen year were our annual assembly program and our class dance. After completing our Freshman year, we tackledithe tenth year, as sopho- mores, with great enthusiasm. We made our headquarters in Rooms 201, 307, and 309. Knowing the full value of time, we settled down to elect the following officers. President . ,. .. , .. Wallace Shadle Vice President .. . .. .. Frank Bono Secretary . , . ,. . . . ,.,. Dolores Kundrak Treasurer . , , ., .. .. ..., , ,.,. , ,.., . . ,. Robert Hogue The Sophomore girls took part in the Teen Timers, Art Club, Camera Club, Glee Club, and Dramatics Club. They also were active in basketball, under the direction of Miss Clarkin. The Dramatics Club, Boys Cooking Club, and basketball and football teams consisted of ambitious Sophomore boys. The Leechburg High School Band and Orchestra, directed by Mrs. Kennedy had a number of musically inclined Sophomores. On January 30th, 1947, the Sophomore Class presented its assembly with a play, titled, JUNIOR BUYS A CAR. The characters were as follows: Wallace Shadle, Martha Mae Myers, Dorothy Cooper, Michael Vereb, Bill Jones, Mary Ann Rua, Alice Carrol and Robert McHenry. The program also included a few musical selections. And so we are drawing to a close of two years of high school life, and we, to-be graduates in 1949, wish to express our appreciation to those that have made them prosperous and pleasant. By experience, we will become better citizens in the future. OUR PLAY JUNlOR BUYS A CAR John Millward, a shrewd business man bid his family farewell, and departed for Chicago. During his absence, his son, Junior, purchased an old dilapidated car. Think- ing he was more important, he double-crossed his pal, Jennie Brown, by making a date with Arline Anderson, who was conceited and the most attractive girl in town. This roused Jennie's iealousy, so she was determined to get even with Junior. Later, she entered the Millward garage and damaged Mr. Millward's car, mistaking it for JUnior's. Jennie's doing this, led to an unexpected and sur- prising crisis for Junior. 43 ROW I Irene Prete Sally Davis Helen Pecus Gloria Caveglia Jane Moore Janet McGee Lenlca Podowick ROW Ill Betty Grooms Betty Berry Mary Nigro Mariorie Fouse Marjorie Ednie Mary Low Eshelman Jean Stueber Marjorie Swank Dolores Bothell Mary Ann Rua Sophumnras ROW Il John Rehak Rudolph Fuller Wilmer Shaner Andy Dudek Freddy Stull Bill Jones Richard Ludwig Mario Gasbarro Robert Smith Joe Rua fy ?,f - f ff fb ROW Ill Monna Klingensmith Josephine Rubus Mary Ann John Naomi Jean Williams Delilah l.e'Sueur Mary lee Coy Marilyn Wolfe Hazel Jean Groves Alice Carroll Joanne Solomon ROW IV Dean Cline Walter Prunty Lefty Despotakis Anthony Cortileso Howard Bone Gasper Simon Wayne McKendree Bob Hogue Carl Smail Ralph Knepshield 45 Suphumlmas ROW I Barbara Shearer Dolores Kundrak Betty Chernay Ruth Cooper Dorothy Mottura Julia Doyle Carolina Tira Betty Sanford Mariorie Brewer Loretta Oglietti ROW II John Toth Dana Hart Merle Riggle Joe Barlha Bill Kerner John Batiz Andy Sprankle Robert McHenry Julius Hadel Don Fox ROW Il Cloronce Grantz Wayne Allen Wesley Stull Wilbur Adams Gene Hall John Moore Charles Obeclorf Andy Demyanik Lula Roofner Virginia Lee Jolt Marcelyn Young Frances Motturo Rose Morie Querio ROW Ill Stephina Slobodzion Volieon Dunmire Augustine Stono Pat Cruson Antionette Zana John Moore Stephen Sherden Anthony Querio Raymond Shuster James Faletti 46 Freshmen ROW I Josephine Guarnero Catherine Luciak Lillian Ashbough Jeannette Messner Betty Wolfe Joyce Knepshield Olive Smail Catherine lege Marie Rua Helen Marie Obedorf ROW I John Mclfallip Bob Perf Robert Thompson Donald Hunter Joseph Ignafz Richard Ravotti Charles Schrecengost Alberta Mateer Sarah Walford Patricia Klingensmith Pauline Slrapac Isabelle Eagleson Nancy Snyder Janet Loos Marilyn Ward Ellen Stubble Esther Wasson ROW Ill Virginia Ellis Pauline Solida Olga Gregor Fay Schumaker Audry Stover Annette Massey Margaret Hall Minnie Fryer Mildred Fryer Anna Howton Freshmen ll ROW Il Helen Gendrolies Sylvia Odasso Dorothy Swarmer Silvia Odasso Ray Phillips Gerald Simon Norman Huselton Junior Sanford Edwin Ashbaugh Max Israel 1rr1.,.1.,rr CHAPTER I It was on a bright September day when the clan gathered in the L.

M ax Israel Secretary ..,., Margaret Thompson Treasurer . ,. ,,., . , John McKallip CHAPTER II The annual invitation to join the Tri-Hi-Y was presented to the freshman girls, and so, for a week we gaped and gazed at the creatures that trod the halls of the Alma Mater. We soon became accustomed to the sight and settled back to normality again. CHAPTER III The athletic males interested in football and basketball tried out for the Junior Varsity team. The squad was organized and the boys took turns being captain. The boys played four games tying two. Basketball season rolled around and the boys that were free from the casualty list of football players began working earnestly to form a J. V. basketball team. Their manager was John Vallino, and under his able guidance they won 6 games out of 17. The book Class of 50 opens to introduce you to the characters of the freshman class. At the beginning of the story rooms 312, 313, and 206 are looking happily forward to the future. New subjects are to be studied and we are to participate in various different activities. Class of 50 is dedicated to the freshmen sponsors, Mrs. Houchens, Miss Clarkin, and Mr. Thompson. CHAPTER IV. With the month of December came try outs for cheerleaders. Our peppy girls were enthusi- astic about this and the competition was keen. The girls practiced and practiced. Each night eliminations were made while everyone grew anxious. Finally, from the lot, two efficient girls, Eleanor Gasbarro and Joan Klingensmith were chosen. We are proud of these two representa- tives from our class. CHAPTER V During this year several girls and boys ioined either the band or orchestra, Music soothes the savage beast , so talents added to these fields are appreciated. Maiorettes were also chosen. CHAPTER VI On March 28, 1947, the Freshman Dance was held. This was the first activity to increase our treasury. We presented our assembly program on April 1, 1947. It consisted ofa play and musical selections. CHAPTER VII In conclusion to this story we wish to men- tion the fact that we are glad to be able to make so many new friends this year. Our class was exceptionally large, and we had a great opportunity for these friendships. We are, one and all, looking forward to being together again next year Class 50 .

The Jr. Art Club, and The Future Home- makers of America are two of the clubs the eighth grade girls joined this year. The iunior varsity, shop, and the safety patrol kept the boys busy throughout the term. The seventh and eighth graders presented their annual assembly in the form of the Christ- mas play entitled Merry Christmas to the World . On February QI, the eighth graders held a party, which, with co-operation on the part of the class with their sponsors, Miss Groves and Mrs. McLaughlin, turned out to be a big success. All the members of the eighth grade are looking forward to next year when they will become Freshmen at Leechburg High School. SEVENTH GRADE ACTIVITIES We seventh graders have really been ener- getic this year, and have filled the calendar com- pletely with our activities. As it was our first year in iunior high, we had looked forward very much to the election of officers. The election finally came and officers were elected. We celebrated Hallowe'en with a party, which we think was just about the most successful of all our activities. Then we helped eighth grade give a really worthwhile Christmas play. In February we exchanged Valentines. The girls of our class have been very busy in Home Economics this season. Our first attempt at sewing was aprons, and they weren't bad for Seventh Grade OFFICERS Mary Ann Edwards ,. . .,., , , President Richard Shick . . ,.,. Vice President Betty McTigue , ,. . ..

Miss Hall has been quite busy with the club she organized, the Future Home-makers of Amer- ica. There are sixty-six members in the club, of whom twenty-two are seventh graders. The offi- cer from seventh grade is Dorothy Shavensky, who is secretary. We had, for initiation, a for- mal ceremony held on the stage as an assembly. A dance was held on March twenty-first and the proceeds used to take all the members of the club to Pittsburgh. Turning to the boys' department, we find some very skilled craftsmen. Some fine cedar chests were made in Mr. Messner's class. James Glenn painted a very attractive plaster-of-Paris Indian Village. Safety Patrol emblems were the pride of some seventh grade boys. This group is under the supervision of Mrs. Houchens and does a very commendable iob. We were very proud of our boys' beating the eighth grade boys in basket- ball. Libraries in our home-rooms supply some extra knowledge during study-halls. A spelling contest was the outstanding event on our calen- dar in February. Seven-B held the championship and James Glenn was the last person standing. In June we finish our first year of high-school life, and many of us consider it the most enioy- able year of our lives, and we hope that those who take our places will enioy and appreciate it all as much as we did. AETIVITIES 55 Minetas Stall Editorial Branch Minetas activities start as soon as school does. We find the year not too long a time for the completion of such a project. First, of course, is the organization of a staff. We're supposed to have some members all ready with some preparation and experience. But, I might say, it's hard to find them. So, it's a matter of getting a group together, deciding what each one must do, and extracting from him a promise to do his job, his whole job, and nothing but his iob. We try to take as many pictures as possible outside, while the weather is good. Our success on this point depends on cooperation from Mr. Plank and the weather. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. Certain pictures must be taken in season, but all the while, write-ups and financial activities go on. And the financing is a maior part of the project. This year we had some movies, a successful magazine selling campaign, and the senior play to increase our budget. We gratefully acknowledge at this time all the support and cooperation we received from the faculty and student body. 56 inetes Staff reduetien and Business Department Editor-in-Chief A Business Manager , Photographic Editor Subscription Editor Snapshot Editors ., Sports Editors ,.

Editorial Staff Truli Veck Trotty Veck, our bi-monthly tribunal, has again this year carried its news throughout the school and community. The editorial staff goes out to collect facts. They get the news easy enough, but to write it up is another matter. A feature writer writes on a variety of subjects such as big events, fashions, club news, and gossip. To make the article more interesting, she may add her own opinion. The editor-in-chief is a very busy person. Besides the regular editorials that he must write, he has the iob of making sure that all the material is in. He must also set up, with Miss Artman's help, a dummy copy. That is a replica of what the publication will look like. The job of the business staff is to type the material, sell the paper and see that there are sufficient funds provided for it. This year they held a dance, and a subscription campaign throughout the community. The Trotty Veck is also sent to other schools which, in exchange, send us their papers from which we gather new ideas. This is the task of the circulation manager. There must be co-operation from everyone if the paper is to be a success. lt is the foundation for efficiency which enables a paper to be published accurately and on time. 59 5 ' K .

Sub-Ileh Teen Timers The Teen Timers Club is a social club, com- posed of sophomore and junior girls. Each month our club holds one business meeting and one social meeting. Our first business meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers. The initiation of the new sophomore mem- bers was our next event. For about two hours the antics and screams of the new members caused an uproar throughout the school and town. We sponsored our annual Harvest Hop, which has become a custom of the Teen Timers. To start the year right, we held a New Year's party, to which each girl invited a boy guest. The party appeared to be a huge success. The club staged various other activities throughout the year.

The club opened the year with its annual Sadie Hawkins Day Dance. On No- vember l3, Mrs. S. M. Wray presented her hobby, a collection of dolls. and, also gave a very inter- esting tcrlk on the history of dolls. To this gath- ering the Teen-Timers, Jr. and Sr. Tri-Hi-Y's were invited. A rummage sale was held December 7. On the eighteenth of that month the club went carolling. To end the year the girls are planning a trip to the Syria Mosque to see a ballet. Miss Knepshield and Mrs. Bigley are the able sponsers of this group.

A rummage sale was held on November sixteenth, which was a huge success. We sponsored our annual formal dance, The Holly Hop, which was on December twentieth. Everyone enioyed dancing to the music of Barry Blue and his orchestra. Two informal dances were held earlier in the school year. The members packed a Christmas basket for a poor family. The girls of the club heard Mr. Traugh, the district executive of the Y. M. C. A. He told them different ways to make money and new ideas for things to do throughout the year. 62 OFFICERS resident Andy Nigra ice President Bob Hawk Secretary Anna Mae Collingwood reasurer Claire Butler IEE E li ll WI ll The Dramaliu Club The Dramatic Club is made up of twenty- five Sophomores and Juniors who hold their meetings every two weeks in Room 104. Although the club was a part of L. H. S. last year, it wasn't completely organized until this year when a Constitution was drawn up and officers elected. Throughout the year the club's Secretary corresponded with Vandergritt High School's Dramatic Club. In this way both schools were able to obtain and put new ideas into use. One of the year's activities was the spon- soring ofa dance on April ll, 1947. A 3-act comedy Bottoms Up was selected as their play for this year. They were, however, unable to present it. ln its place they presented a l-act assembly play. The Dramatic Klub Tri-Hi-Y The Tri-Hi-Y is a club founded on Christian principles and is affiliated with the Y. M. C. A. This club is to help girls to work together and enjoy each others company.

They are usually seen pounding away on the stage or adiusting the pro- iector for movies. Their help with the various plays enacted during the school year is appre- ciated by all. Neal Keefer, James DeWitt, Richard Potter Louis Peyronel, Andy Zboravan lf '- - f I A A Assembly Committee The Assembly Committee is closely con- nected with the Stage Crew. Both are on hand ready to help anytime an assembly is given. This year the committee has confined its activi- ties to taking charge of the eight Lyceum Pro- grams. Representatives of the different classes are: Seniors-Mary Stetter, Jack Meessp Juniors Dorlaiean Klingensmith, Joseph Faverof Sopho- mores-Hazel Jean Groves, Robert McHenry: Freshman-John Moore: Eighth Grade-Helen Stetter, Seventh Grade-Mary Ann Edwards. 65 Script ljlimmereial Eluli Each member of the Script Commercial Club must have 90 or better in Shorthand and Typing. If any member's grade should fall below 85, she would become an inactive mem- ber, and, if so voted by the other members of the club, she would be taken out of the club. On October, 1946, the Script Commercial Club held an election of offi- cers: President, Clara Carroll, Vice President, Mary Altman, Secretary, Ethel Jean Ferrick, Treasurer, Helen Dzvonik. There were four sen- ior girls who were invited to ioin the club, these members were initiated on October 9, 1946. They were: Elsie Downing, Mary Giron, Mary Kasaiak, and Edna Roofner. On November 12, 1946, the president, Clara Carroll, made a motion that we drop the grades to 85 forthe seniors to be eligible and the same grades as before to remain for the juniors. All were in favor. On November 26, 1946 the Script Commer- cial Club members had a short meeting at 12:30 P. M. They voted seven senior girls whose grades were 85 or above. These new members were: Helen Balla, Wanda Huselton, Doris Hutcherson, Betty Mrazik, Irene Shearer, Mildred Buckoske, and Freda Sappe. These members and the for- mer members ofthe Script Commercial Club held a Christmas party in the typing room on Decem- ber 17, 1946, at 7:00. At the close of 1945-46 school term, the fol- lowing girls were selected to serve on the 1946- 47 saving stamps and bonds committee: Ethel Jean Ferrick, Edna Roofner, Clara Carroll, Margie Beatty, Betty Williams, and Betty Mrazik. Through September of 1946, these girls filled their positions capably. At the end of October, it was decided to discontinue having a formal committee conduct the sale, but to allow the home-room chairmen to carry on as they wished. The stamp committee was first organized in 1942. The Leechburg Schools were many times congratulated and awarded certificates by county and national units for their generous support. Stamp lfemmittee 66 President Mary Vereb Vice President Don Clarke Recording Secretary Bob Hawk Corresponding Secretary Elsia Edera Treasurer Dorothy Painter This year under the able direction of Miss Hall the Boy's Cooking Club was again resumed. At their Wednesday meetings, after school, the boys prepare their evening meal. On Wed- nesday, January twenty-second, the boys cooked their first meal in the new electric roaster. The new members taken in the club in October were: Dean Cline, Donald Fox and Lefteni Despotakis. r l i Boys lluukinq Club THE OFFICERS President Bill Balash Vice President Joe Favero Secretary Bob Hawk Treasurer Bob McHenry The Camera Club which was organized by the sophomores in T946 has added a large group of students to its membership roll. Each student has either a camera and developing set or access to them. They sponsored a very successful dance at which they raPr'Ied otT a camera. The several hikes that they took during the winter and spring were very interesting and in- formative. The most important project of the year was the purchasing of an enlarger. Miss Orndoft, the photographer sponsor, helped the members choose a worthy one. They donated it to the school. Ei.

The Fire Squad The members of the Fire Squad deserve some praise for their efforts toward better safety in our school. It is their duty to clear the building during a fire drill and in case of a fire without anyone rushing or pushing. They time the drills and in each drill they try to shorten the time it takes to clear the building. If the building should catch on fire, which l'm sure we all wouldn't like to see, I am sure the boys would be on the job.

Their first meeting of the year was held in room 313 to elect the officers and to discuss plans for the year. Many new ideas were learned for the success of the club. A demerit system was worked out and 50 demerits expelled a member. They ordered pins which were very appropriate and attractive. Every Monday evening at 7:00, except the first Monday of each month is the holding of their regular meeting. The Club sponsored ci dance in October which was a huge success and added substantially to the treasury. All agreed to use the profits from the dance to buy art supplies. On November 23, 1946 the members chartered a bus and went to the Car- negie Institute to view the art exhibit. They met at the High School at 8:00 A. M. and arrived in Pittsburgh at about 10:00 A. M. The entire morning was spent at the exhibit. A few of the paintings viewed were the first and second prize win- ners Gear by Karl Knathe and Welcome Home by Jack Levine, Wheat by John Roger Cox, The Picture of Dorian Gray by Ivan Le Lorraine Albright and The Return by Paul Sample. The chartered bus brought them home about 7:00 P. M. Plans are already underway for sponsoring dances during the summer months. 70 Home-Room 305 203 104 209 Ufficers Pres.-Betty Mrazik V.

The members of the orchestra practiced hard and diligently to improve their music and with great success. Everyone should appre- ciate the fine work they have done in the past year. Their big event of the year being the County Orchestra concert at Free- port on March 6, 7. A maiority of the members were selected to attend. Throughout the year the orchestra played for assemblies, plays, and Com- mencement.

Q- X X ,, L ,N Y M-is Girls' Varsil Colleen Clowes, Ann Louise Jones, Meredith Ludwig, Diana Gasbarro, Helen Dzvonik, Rose Tafi, Natalie Eager, Eleanor Kundrak The Varsity of 1946-47 was chosen and organized, as all others have been, in the pre- vious spring. New members were selected from the list of eligibles, drawn up by Miss Clarkin, and the chosen ones were duly initiated. The eight new members organized and chose Eleanor Kundrak as their president. During the winter season, the three out- standing events were all in the form of trips to Pittsburgh. The first of these was to see a foot- ball game between Pitt and Penn State. The next was on December 28th to see the stage pro- duction of Oklahoma at the Nixon Theater. The occasion of the third was a hockey game on February 'l5th. Between times members of the club have ushered at plays and other entertainments in the Auditorium, and have assisted at any events where their help was needed. The various activities of the club have been much enioyed and all the members are grateful to Miss Clarkin for making them possible. Early in the fall of '46 the senior girls of L. H. S. organized their basketball team. After a few practices the team was finally chosen. Eleanor Kundrak, forward, was chosen captain. In the preliminary game on January 30, the sen- ior girls played the alumni girls. After a rough and tumble game the senior girls emerged vic- torious by the score of 32-30.

Its mem- bership consists of those girls who are interested in participating in sports. Long ago the group became too large to be just one unit, so now there are two groups -one of seniors and one of iuniors. The first important event of the season is, of course, the initiation of new members. The favorite way of opening the year's activities is with a scavenger hunt. This way irks the immediate neighborhood a bit, but it has proven to be a good way to test the good-nature, ingenuity, and sportsmanship of the new members. And besides, it's lots of fun. Much time was spent by the club this year playing basketball. The Jr. G. A. A. team even dared challenge the invincible sophomore team and to everybody's surprise, the G. A. A. team was victorious! The heavy snow of February was a good excuse for another jolly event- o coasting party. A record of activities and attainments is kept throughout the year, and an L is awarded at the end ofthe year to each girl who has sufficient credits. This award is made at the Gym. Exhibition in May, an event in which the G. A. A. plays a leading part.

Senior G. fl. A 85 lfheerleaders When the year started, the cheerleaders were all set to start off with a bang. The cheerleaders were appointed by Miss Clarkin. First came football and cheerleaders were ready to go. During the period between football and basketball the two new freshman were selected. Eleanor Kundrak, head cheer- leader, spent much time in composing several new cheers. Near the end of the basketball season the cheerleaders were entertained at a banquet given by the Mothers' Club. The cheering squad is composed of Eleanor Kundrak, Mary Vereb, Dorla Jean Klingensmith, Carol Jean Markey, Dolores Kundrak, Eleanor Gas- barro, and Joan Klingensmith. Eleanor Kundrak, senior, El served as cheerleader for four years. Peppy and a competent leader, she will be missed by all. Mary Vereb, iunior, you can always count on Mary. Dorla .lean Klingensmith, junior, noted for her cartwheels. Carol Markey, junior, Dorla's cartwheel twin. Dolores Kundrak, sophomore, Dolores seems to be following El's footsteps. Eleanor Gasbarro and Joan Klingensmith, our new freshman. 86 Autographs i WH L 1 rf ff K L a t aw -L X 1 SERVICE m y EA .... ,, ,.,,,, y .,,..
