To the performers and the productions for which this symbol stands, we wish to dedicate our nineteen hundred and fortyfseven edition ofthe Ellwoodian. The past few years, in spite of trying conditions, we heralded a welcome increase in both the quantity and quality of our high school and community dramatic activities. Of course, everyone remembers the outstanding prof ductions of this year: The junior class extravaganza, The Life of the Partyf' the Dramatic club production, The Case of the Laughing Dwarf, the entertaining childrenls plays, such as The Boy Titian, the Rotary Glub's thriller Arsenic and Old Lace, with its elaborate setting, and the one and only, long awaited, senior class play, Ah! Menlf' We fully realize and appreciate the excellent support of our student body and the community in making these productions successful. just as the old Grecian mask covered not only the face, but the entire body, so our blue cover with its modern mask design covers not only pictures and records of our dramatic stellar performances, but also all of Lincoln School's activities. Our wish is that this 1947 Ellwoodian may bring back some of these pleasant moments in memory in the years to come. Hugo in a Hurry Red Carnations Ellwoodizm assembly playfB.Gree11eg Ohl. E.

S. from the air IN THE Linco n SPOTLIGHT As the curtain goes up on our little drama, we see before us a group o students hurrying toward the portals of a most familiar structure. To an ordinary observer, it is a typical brick building with stately Greek pillars, majestic Gothic tower, and many facadesg but to the actors in our production, it is unique both in its outward and inward appearances. It is to them a second home where days of educational work are pleasantly intermingled with those of enjoyable recreation, where lifelong friendships are made and multitudinous vows broken. In our little drama in three acts, we present, in Act I, the actors in the classroom. These are the students who have worked faithfully and diligently to attain their present status. In Act II, we cast the limelight on the Lincoln High clubs. Here's where we have our fun in a cooperative, friendly manner. In Act III, we bring to a climax our presentation with a resume of our sports program. Here we find the athleticallyfminded persons who have excelled in the field of sports. Not until long after we have left these hallowed halls will we be able to fully evaluate or appreciate all that Lincoln High has meant to us. ,THE DRAMA IN THREE ACTS I-.ummm 1lm-inI-nu--un-.nmm--mmnmImiim.inIunmlummnu-ummimIumm.uiImiImu-mmim---muml---Iun-Inmm-nn-mnnn mmmmm.mm-mmnu..-mm-mm-I ACT ONE. ..

These capable leaders have Worked for the betterf ment of our scholastic and athletic programs. They have come to mean to us not a force which extols disciplinary actions, but rather a group on which we can rely for guidance or advice. Immeasurable amounts of personal service have been rendered by the Hofhce force. Their oilicial task demands constant attention to the problems of a student body of 1800 different personalities. Behind the school officials, we find the instigators of our policies, the Board of Education. A citizen group composed of influential men in tovvng they are the executive body of the school, the ruling force which approves or rejects our demands. In this 1947 Ellvvoodian, we Wish to express our gratitude for their services. W. DEAN, R. EVANSQ DR. GIGLIOTTIQ DR. HELLING P. LUTHER, F. POTTERQ H. SMITH 1947 OFFICERS President DR. H. E.

In all plays there are extremely important jobs manned by stagehands who do not receive top billing. Without their contributions the production would be doomed to be a failure. In our drama of Lincoln High, we find no exception. Our competent secretaries and thorough custodians perform the decidedly numerous and important tasks that keep the show moving. The secretaries conduct the paper Work phase of our school system. It is their duty not only to manage their regular work but also to assist continually a throng of harassing students with their trivial problems. Did you ever realize how Warm and comfortable our classrooms are kept? And what about the attractive, clean campus? These are just parts of many tasks performed by our building custodians. Although these performers do not receive top billing, they rate their names on Lincoln High's marquee for the good job they've done this school year. I've been workin' on the Refports all the live long day -the secretaries' theme song. N. Rossig B. Amalongg D. Nedeskyg R. Farinelli. ll English Williams. Our 1947 Ellwoodian theme, drama, is more closely related to English than to any other subject. At least one play is read during each year of high school. Because of this relationship, we thought that it would be appropriate for us to ask each English teacher to name the play that she has seen on the stage or read, that has thrilled her the Inost. We have listed their choices helow. MAIKY MBTZ'7B. S. Indiana State Teachers College, Opera is preference: Lily Pons in 'iLucia de Lammermoorf' ELEANOR GLIGOIR' -B. S.

Even the peppy band Eady gives out for Mr. Weinstein music at the games has produced in us that strange feeling that makes us want to stand up and yell Nat the top of our voices.

In chemistry class, we are surprised to find that an experiment concludes by producing some commonplace com' pound. Astonishment rules in biology class, when we look through a compound microscope and see that a common germ has taken a new appearance and is quite different from our original impression. Even in physics lab, we are amazed to find that we can make a cell that really produces electricity. Yes, each class holds something new and unexpected for us. Elizabeth McKnight-B. A.

When we think of drama, we invariably think of actors and actresses interpreting by actions, the written word in any language. Therefore we Hnd that our study of languages plays an important part in drama. Latin especially is closely connected with drama, since it was in the time of the ancient Romans that drama first began. The Romans were quite adept in using the theatre as a form of entertainment. The French too, who are a deeply emotional people, love the theatre, and through the years, many Hne plays and actors have been produced by the French. In class we have read The Count of Monte Cristo , a splendid story that has been adapted to many stage productions and a fine movie. -IOSEPHINE FLEISHER'B. A. Geneva College.

Many of us enjoy readf ing about these events in interesting historical novels, depicting the pageant of our country. These historical Eicts have provided the setting for many dramas.

Milnes Lathe Operator: J. Fanto Mr. Croftg Mr. Stewart Un the Masculine Side Shop is a special period to all industrially minded boys who find it exciting to be able to create things from tin and lumber. There is a thrill that goes with being able to manipulate the lathes that only a boy who has done so can feel. Pride in the finished product can be achieved only by someone who measures the value of his product by the amount of time he invests in it. In mechanical drawing, too, one feels gratified when he is able to draw objects such as parts of machines to precise scale. Thus the Shop provides the interesting setting for manual achievements.

Miss jacksong Miss Crowley Cn the Feminine Side An actor, no matter how experienced he is, must go through seemingly endless rehearsals. Many scenes and stage properties must be arrangedg hundreds of advertisements must be posted. All of these details must be done in order to prepare for the drama to be performed. Thus, it is with the home economics classes. Here, in the cooking classes, the girls are taught to follow the recipes, to prepare the most tempting and nutritious foods, and to economize. In the sewing rooin they learn to cut material in order that none is wasted, to manipulate the modern electric sewing machines, and to fit clothes so that their appearance is neat and attractive.

For instance, those dictation tests in shorthand class always create a tense feeling of anxiety as everyone sits awaiting that Dear Sir . After the letter is written, it is like an exciting mystery to try to decipher those queer little crooked lines. In bookkeeping, much anxiety is spent waiting to see if those debits and credits balance, for if they don't there lies ahead the unpleasant thought of having to do it all over again.

For some persons, life is a series of satisfying happy events, each leading to something greater. For others, it is a tragedy, coming to a fateful end.

Medical Department This season, besides our veteran troupers, Doctor Gigliotti and Miss Shremp, we have several new starf performers. The addition of Doctor Mazzei and Miss Swanick has given the medical department more scope. In the Hartman Building, where the medical and dental rooms are located, nearly forty complete physicals are performed daily, with the students in the odd numbered grades participating. This year too, our medical department boasts the augmentation Cmuch to the chagrin of the studentsb of a dental clinic with Doctor Plunkett and Doctor McKim appearing once a week as school dentists. Every Wednesday is dentist day. As the students enter the dental clinic, the sight of all the dental equipment does little to help their morale, and they feel that they are not going to enjoy this scene.

By various ref ductions we now are ready to graduate with a total of 286, fortyfiive of whom are honor students. Many of our seniors attained letters in athletics and clubs: in basketball 4, football 13, gym team 8, G. A. A. 20, Thespians 8, Band 9, cheerleaders 3. What about the nonfletter members of our class? They were the ones who served on class committees, presided as home room officers, read the Bible daily in each home room. and in general were allfround classmates. Reminiscing over four long years of work and play several important events stand out prominently. We shall not forget our prom, with all its pomp and ex- citement, our day- Senior Day, our junior class play China Boy, and our Senior class play mAh! Men I We will recall the dope passing, and our love notes going from hand to hand in the halls, and the ponderf ous lectures of Mr. Gills after every chemistry test. Yes, our four years in Lincoln High School gave us memories which will be embedded in our minds for- ever. In the years to come, we will look back with pride and joy to our happy days in good old Lincoln High with a sincere wish-I wish I were back in 1947 with the gang at E. C. H. S. 24 Class of 74 Miss Clara Wooster, office practice and bookkeeping teacher is our revered sponsor. Hers was the job of advising this biggerfthanfusual class. To her untiring efforts can be attributed its success. When Miss Grace Brown decided to do graduate work at Syracuse University this year, Miss Wooster graciously took over our direction, a task for which she was well equipped. She expended unlimited energy arranging the sale of tickets for the class play, directing senior dinner plans, auditing books and numf erous other jobs necessary for the proper functioning of a class. Her work was made a little lighter by the assistance of the home room secretaryftreasurers: Virginia Zingaro, Mary Elizabeth Giffen, Pat Jacobs, Louise Zaccheo, Boyd Eichenlaub, Dorothy Rice, Anna Miller, Sally AuBuchon. For your thoughtful understanding gestures as well as goodfnatured reprimands, and kind help in making our senior year so pleasant, we thank you, Miss Wooster, Veterans-Francis Hall, Ralph Marshal, Norman Craveng Walter Freson.

On the stage, we have the seniors, selffpossessed and sagacious. But, behind the scenes, are those pref paring to take their places. They have as their director Mr. H. F. Wilson. They have elected as their managers Larry Friday, President, Ray Thomas, VicefPresident: Ginny Clark, Secretary, and Darlene McFate, Treasurer. These leaders have the lead roles but they can not play these parts alone. It takes the cofoperation of all and each member of the class to contribute his share of success. The members of the '48 cast don't get much credit now, but those behind the scenes seldom do. lt takes hard work and perseverance before they reach the top. The three hundred and six juniors are just about there. For eleven years, they played and worked together, taking every opportunity offered them in the classroom and on the iield or floor. By these experif ences, they feel capable of treading the stage . This career is full of successes and failures, and each one of these coming Stars has faced his. Several times they were ready to give up, but guided by their leaders they kept on. A few did drop by the wayside in hopeless despair, but the majority kept moving forf ward, working for the goal they knew they would some day achieve. They are hopefully awaiting the day they will make their senior debut, that day will soon be here. With it comes a certain amount of finesse and supremf acy that will mark that day with pleasant rememf hrances for a long time to come. The evolution of man is incessant and so is that of the stage, for as the seasoned senior actors move out, new junior ones move in and the old adage The show must go on remains.

They found that high scholastic ratings were becoming more difficult to attain, too, in senior high. By the successful way this class has been entering school activities and studies, real accomplishments are expected from the class of 1949. m..u. f s Q 1 E. DiFalcog J. Evansg S. Connerg M.

Excited and amazed, 395 Freshmen entered the portals of Lincoln High School early on the sunny afternoon of September third. Within a few days they were deeply engrossed in the freshman course of study f-English, civics, general science, Latin, algef bra, and the domestic arts. Speechless by the bustle of the first floor and proud of their third floor study hall, they gradually acclimated themselves. By the time football season was in full swing, the freshmen had established their place in the student body. They showed great promise for the Wolverine teams. Seven members of this class joined the junior Dramatic Club and many were interested in the choirs and band. The evening of Friday, December 13, proved to be a good luck omen to the freshmen, because it was the night of their first big school party. Betty Boots was elected chairman of this Freshmen only event. Angelo Catto and Audrey Brooks were in complete charge of the entertainment. The special feature of the evening was a comedy rendition performed by Angelo Gatto. Popular music was furnished by records and the gym provided an appropriate setting for the hundred dancing couples. By Christmas time the class organized a Freshmen Cofed Club to help its members prepare for participaf tions in social events. It is apparent that they were not completely immersed by the social life, because the evidence indicates that as many as '73 had already attained honor ratings by the beginning of the second semester. With the arrival of spring came the end of this exciting but hard earned freshman term. It is therefore with many pleasant memories of the green year that the class of 1950 looks forward to a promising future in Lincoln High. -17 ACT TWC STAGE CREW 5 SOUND CREW I-HfYg TRIfHIfY KEY CLUB YfTEENS DRAMATIC CLUBS MUSIC 5 'ad-,,ff1-, W Xx Actors www ? w X S a 4 , ln The Spotlight 'VER' -LW. iQ- 5 .S:.,:' .yy:'.j,r X ggw im' 57..- .ini 5 S. x ,jj -w 1, .,v. f . -SSL mv: -...EH 'RFK k .1 ,, k . . 4 A-ft, J: 5. ,- ,, , by My , . -W .-1 '.

No play or assembly program in Lincoln High audi' torium would he a success without the stage crew. This volunteer group of hoys under the supervision of Mr. Howell Williaiiis has a cast of its major and minor characters, too. The three major parts are enacted hy Don Vesco, a three year memherg Dave Powell and Ted Hoffman, two year memhers. The minor 'gchar' actersn are Paul Reinheimer, Mike Perry, Lou Oliastro, and john Barr, newcomers to the crew. The stage crew's work is divided into three acts. ACT I Weeks before the event, the stage crew is husy painting sets, assembling properties, and arranging lights and wires to suit the producer's demands. ACT ll Cn the night of the performance the stage crew is on the joh, making the last minute changes, operating the lights, and pulling the curtain. ACT lll After the program has heen completed and the glitter of a successful production has worn off, the stage hands find their glory in tearing Clown the set, cleaning up the debris and getting the stage ready in time for another program. 50 Old Veterans WD. Powell, D. Vesco, T. Hoffman the men behind the scenes M. HowELL WILLIAMS, Stage Director The Sound Crew Trying a new record-T. Myers, D. Drenbergg D. Elf der. With the rhyming and the chiming of the bells, bells, bells, bells -the loyal members of the sound crew are on the air. Students and faculty perk up as they hear a cheerful good morning or Hgoodfafternoonv from Dick Snedden, Dorothy Elder, Don Drenberg or Ted Myers, the P. A. announcers. These members bring information concerning meetings, sports and many social functions. The crew never misses a day's work, thanks to Mr. Gehm's choral announcements. Then there are Mr. King's peppy sales talks to sell football and basketball tickets. And every once in a while mystifying announcements are heard to create suspense in coming Dramatic Club and class plays. Another popular announcement is that of the attend' ance champion. Room ? ? ? will be dismissed at the end of the sixth period. . . . With another series of chimes, the crew is off the air and students rush to classes. The football squad isn't the only busy group on game nights. The sound crew works diligently installing the loud speakers and they take over to announce the games. When the band marches out on the field during the half, another P. A. member describes formations. School clubs sponsoring informal dances in the gym often call upon the sound crew to take charge of music, loudspeaker is set up again and a patient member records. Although the sound crew, under the supervision Howell Williams, holds no meetings and chooses no they have an important purpose: To serve our school . so, the changes of Mr. ofhcers, 51 Ollicial Football Announcer D. Snedden H VT The HifY Club is one of the most active high school service organizations. It helps in guiding its members to a better understanding and practice of Christian ideals. HifY membership is limited to fifty boys from the sophmore, junior and senior classes. Its purpose is To create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The Club activities began officially in October with initiation and induction of some twentyffour new members. Funds were raised for Y. M. C. A. and various expenses by the sale of Hot Dogsi' at several home football games. Senior HifY boys also aided in the sale of name cards to their fellow upperclassmen. In December, a donation of one hundred dollars was made to the Y. M. C. A. to be used for World Service. Another worthy cause to which the club contributed twentyffive dollars was the Infantile Paralysis Fund. Five delegates attended the Older Boys' Conference held in Beaver Falls December 6th, 7th and Sth: Frank Wallace, Bill Kegel, Ray Conner, Paul Weisf kopf, and Dick Snedden. A good representation attended the fall and spring rallies held in nearby towns. Religious activities included club attendance at various community churches. During the first semester, two speakers addressed the club. Dutch Croft spoke on his Navy experif ence and Mr. Raschella informed them on Conf servation of Wild Life.

TrifI'Iif'Y In the mellow light created by the candles of the senior TrifHifY members, twentyffive junior girls wended their ways, two by two, to the top of the triangular formation of girls, to light their candles from the Torch. At this induction ceremony, they pledged themselves WTO create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. The meetings this year were developed along the theme of various occupations for girls. Their sponsor, Miss Durbin, gave the members an inside look at school teaching and secretarial work. Mrs. Frank Polcaro talked on beautician's work. Mrs. john Myers helped them to appreciate the life and work of nurses. And, they were honored by having a state executive, Mr. R. C. Traugh, address the club. At Thanksgiving and Christmas time the club contributed to the Colored Fund and the Tubercuf losis Fund. The parents who visited the school on Visitors Night were guided through the halls by TrifI-IifY girls. The girls also joined forces with the I'IifY boys in selling hot dogs at the football games. A lot of credit is due not only to the hardfworking committee chairmen for their tireless efforts in seeing their various projects through but also to the girls who cooperated so graciously. Credit is due Miss Durbin for the splendid way in which she has worked with the girls and directed their activities.

With the coming of World War II, interest in the club waned and it had to be disbanded. With the return of Navy man Mr. Flinner and with the aid of Superintendent Bell, Mr. Gehm and Mr. Ansell, the club has been reorganized this past year. The objects of the club are to develop initiative and leader' shipg to serve the school and communityg to render service in general when needed. It has a constitution patterned after the constitution of the Ellwood City Kiwanis Club. Tuesday night of every week, a Key Club member is invited by the Kiwanis Club to attend their dinner meeting. Future members of the Ellwood City Kiwanis Club are shown at this meeting how the Kiwanis Club operates. The club to date has performed various duties such as usher' ing at basketball games and choral concerts. On the education' al side the members have heard outstanding speakers such as Mr. Hawke, Rev. Oliver Stang and Navy man Tom Crothers. Tom told of his adventures on an aircraft carrier during a great naval battle in the Pacific Ocean. Mr. Hawke spoke about the different ways of becoming a good citizen and Rev. Oliver Stang gave a stirring talk on courage. These excellent speeches highlighted the regular bifweekly meetings of the club.

They like their new name too. Girl Reserves was changed to YfTeens this summer at Girl Reserve Conference which was one of four conferences in the Pennsylvania, Ohio District. When considering a modern name, up popped YfTeens, Y because it is a branch of the Y. W. C. A. and 'LTeens , because it is made up of teenagers in the ninth, tenth and eleventh grades. YfTeen week is February 19 to 21st. The two main events are a mother and daughter banquet and a formal dance. The mother and daughter banquet is the highlight of the year. The 100 Teeners play host to their mothers, who also look forward to the event. A speaker will talk on teenfage problems. One of the entertaining meetings was the Christmas Party before the holiday vacation. The entertainment consisted of games and dancing. Then at the close of the evening ice cream, cookies and pop were served as the groups sang Christmas Carols. The first and third Wednesday of each month are our meeting nights, when the girls assemble for the business meeting. The YfTeens organization is made possible by the cooperation and Willing leader Miss Hepler and her assistant Miss Fleisher. They supervise all of the meetings and social service activities such as making hospital favors. Mrs. Bryan is chairman of the club's adult council. 54 amor DRAMATIC CLUB If one sauntered into room 114 some Wednesday after school, one would see a group of industrious freshmen conducting their bifmonthly meeting. President Merviii Wilsoii presides efliciently over his fellow artists. A program is presented, consisting of one or more skits, playlets, or other dramatizations enacted by members, who in return are ref warded with a certain number of points. Soon after school began, with Mrs. Beatrice as sponsor and advisor, the twenty mem' bers decided upon the performances they would present this year. Those selected were: Youth and Uncle Sam , John Alden by Request , 'Polly Put the Kettle On , Elmer and the Lovebugn, and No Suit for Bill . The aims of the club, as in the past years, are: providing assembly programs and begin' ning the training for the Senior Dramatic Club. Everyone is expected to take part in at least one play and all persons have been exceptionally active this year. The social functions include a party at the beginning of the school year initiating the newly elected members, and one at the end of the year for eighth graders who form the nucleus of next year's club. As the finale to their success, a cast party is staged. 1 N. Rutter, D. jones, C. Conner, J. Bisceglia, J. Muller, S. Craig, M. johnson, V. DeCaria, B. Marsario.

The popular faculty sponsors are Miss Elizabeth McKnight and Miss Gladys Brown. In recent years, this club has been quite active in the National Thesf pian Society. The Thespian Society, whose roll call boasts of twenty, is a nonfsecret, nonfsocial organization. It has a membership of over 700 schools, in which we are enrolled as Troupe 507. Students on the stage crew, makefup crew, and poster crew are also eligible for Thespian. One must have an accumulation of ten points, and must be recommended by the faculty member who is supervising the work done in producf tion. After Thespian membership has been achieved, star awards are given. The Best Thespian for the year is chosen from senior members of the entire club. In the Spring of 1946, the Dramatic Club presented for junior high school. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Pictures of this production were printed in the January issue of National Dramatics Magazine. A threefact mystery, The Case of the Laughing Dwarf, given in December, marked the beginning SENIOR DRAMATIC CLUB OFFICERS President E. O'HARA VicefP'residem J. MALONEY Secretary M. JONES Treasurer C. DECARIA of a successful and busy year for the Dramatic Club. Then, a group of students interested in art work, with the help of Miss McKnight, organized a poster crew.

The burden of performance of these groups falls on the band. The entertaining programs presented by the band at football games have brought forth much praise. Marching for various parades in our own community and neighboring communities has resulted in much favorf able comment and publicity. The presentation of the Annual Spring Concert has resulted in a display of great enthusiasm by our audiences. All of this has served as an incentive for students to become members of our organization. Our aims and objectives in carrying on our work are ever before us. In addition to the enjoyment we experience in playing in our organ' izations we are always mindful of the fact that music can and does develop initiative, leadership, discipline, cofoperation, habits of conf centration, alertness, honesty and integrity. We are also constantly aware of the fact that music can and does develop the cardinal prinf ciples of good citizenship and the basis of harmony in all human relation' ships.

Phil Konyak elected honorary captain. 1946 WOLVERINES With Thurman Dutch Croft back as head coach after three years of service in the Navy, the Wolverf ines played a nine game schedule. They succeeded in winning five of the contests after getting off to a rather slow start. The Wolverines started with the T formation again, but when it failed to click for them, Croft and his able assistant Howard B. Gills switched to the old single wing, which the Blue and White had used exclusively up until 1943. The switch brought good results. The Wolverines opened their season by starting a new rivalry with Brownsville. The Brownies were much too experienced for the Croft men and handed them a 21 to O setback. It was a much closer game than the score indicates. The Wolverines did manage to score a touchdown on a pass from Don O'Hara to Al Miller shortly before the end of the first half only to see it called back because the Blue and White had been offside. . Rochester inaugurated the Blue and White's home schedule by handing them a 19 to 0 defeat in a sea of mud at Lincoln Field. Out weighed about 12 pounds to the man, the Wolverines put up a great battle the first half, only to weaken in the second. The Wolverf 64 ines threatened time and time again but'just simply could not hit pay dirt. Once they got as far as the Rochester one inch line. The Wolverines got rolling when they journeyed to Farrell and came back with a 13 to 0 victory over the Steelers. The Blue and White weathered an early storm the Steelers put up at the beginning of the game, to come back and score two times once on a plunge through center by Charlie Milnes and the other on a dash olfftackle by Al Miller. Verone made good on one of the extra points. The Wolverines began another new rivalry when they traveled to Clairton and emerged with a 13 to 0 win. It rained all night the day before the game and when it continued to pour the day of the contest there was mud everywhere. How the Wolverines managed to score two touchdowns is still a mystery. O'Hara tallied the first on a pass from George McDougall and McDougall the second on an end run. Verone again made good on one extra point. Aliquippa invaded Ellwood and were outclassed the first half when the Wolverines played like a house aiire. However the tide changed the second half and the Quips walked off with a 13 to 7 decision over the Blue and White. The Wolverines scored when Milnes SENIOR VARSITY SQUAD Row 1-Lower-Left to right- Mr. Kellerg Mr. Kingg Mr. Gillsg D. O'Harag G. McDougall, P. Kay, C. Milnesg J. Fehlg P. Konyakg C. Agostinellig C.

D SEASON N BLAZE OF GLORY plunged over from the four yard stripe. Verone conf verted, but the Wolveriiies couldn't hold the lead. Ellwood struck back at Greenville and the Mercer Countians were no match for the fast moving Wolverf ines as they chalked up their third victory of the year, 14 to O. The hrst Wolverine score came when Kay tackled Plam of Greenville behind the goal line for a safety. Miller scored a touchdown on a plunge from the one yard line and Warnock another from the five. The longest run of the game was a spectacular 42 yard sprint by George McDougall in the final quarter. During the half the Ellwood band, sporting new uni' forms, staged a Gay Ninetiesn program that thrilled the fans. Then came the disastrous trip to Beaver Falls. The Wolverines entered the fray the favorite to win, but were upset 21 to 14. However they did put on a show in the last four minutes that few fans will ever forget. They did the almost impossible thing of scoring 14 points in that space of time. McDougall tallied the first score when he broke loose for a touchdown from the 26 yard line. Warnock scored the final marker when he plowed over from the three. Verone made good on both extra points. The fighting Wolverines then did the impossible when they pulled one of the most stunning and biggest upsets of all time in high school football. They upset Ambridge 12 to 7. The Blue and White entered the contest a 30 point underdog. They were outweighed by the mighty Bridgers, who had run up against little difficulty in beating Rochester and Beaver Falls and six other opponents. But the Wolverines weren't to be frightened off by the Bridgers amazing record. They proceeded to play Ambridge off their feet. Some 10,000 fans went wild as Warnock plunged over for a Wolverine score in the second quarter. They then sat back satisfied that the Wolverines had even scored and when the Bridgers came back in the third period to take the lead, the fans were positive that Ambridge had won the ball game and the Wolverines had held them wonderfully. However what the Bridgers and the fans too, had failed to reckon with, was a Wolverine team that wasn't going to be beaten no matter what the odds were. They got a break with five minutes left to play in the game, when Ambridge fumbled and Wolverines recovered. Two minutes later George McDougall galloped 12 yards for the winning touchdown. The Wolverines held the Bridgers on the doorstep to their goal line as they took possession again just as the game ended. Football. UNICR THE WINNERS!

The contest, a benefit game for Charles Follette Jr. before 3,500 fans, saw the Wolverines reach the county seater's 2 yard line in the final moments of the game only to run out of time. The Red and Gold got back on the victory trail the following week with a smashing 21 to O win over Beaver Falls. Bob O'Brien, Joe Giovannini, and Carl Mantz all scored touchdowns for the Wolverines, while Powell, DeCaria, and O'Brien added the extra points. Arnbridge was next to feel the powerful claws of the Little Wolverines as Ellwood gave them a sound beating 32 to 12. Coach Wallace emptied his bench numerous times throughout the contest in an effort to hold down the score. O'Brien, Gatto, Giovannini, Powell, and DeCaria all crossed the goal line for scores for the Wolverines. Giovannini added two extra points. The Wallace men closed their season against a new rival, Meadville, with a 27 to 6 victory. Meadville players and townspeoples were pleased with the smooth play and teamwork of promising varsity material. Tony Stramella, Harold Fehl, Louis Valvano, Cecil McDaniel, Frank Wolfe, joe Giovannini, Bob O'Brien, Horner Powell, Carl Mantz, Tony DeCaria, and George Soos will help form what may be another great Ellwood High football team next year.

The inexperienced Wolverines showed plenty of fight and determination by upsetting a highly favored opponent. The Wolverines went through their 7 prefleague games by winning 5 out of the 7. Their only losses were to Shenango by the score of 32f28 and to Kittanf ning 36f35. These were avenged later in the season. ELLWOOD CITY 20 SHARON 36 The Wolverines opened the W.P.I.A.L. champion' ship race at Sharong they were defeated 36f2O. The first quarter was scoreless for both teams. Both teams didn't make any progress until the third quarter. Sharon then began to click and went to victory. ELLWOOD CITY 32 FARRELL 35 The Wolverines took their second defeat at the hands of a fast moving Farrell quint. It was the cleanest and most exciting game during the season. Ellwood was ahead with 7 seconds left to play when a foul Cwhich tied the scorej was countered by Cindea of Farrell. The game went into an over time with Ellwood coming out on the unlucky side of the ticket. ELLWOOD CITY 33 AMBRIDGE 35 The hard fighting Wolverine Five journeyed to Ambridge to be nosed out by a 2 point margin. One of the main factors was the height which Ambridge displayed. Ed O'Hara of Ellwood led the pace with 13 points. ELLWOOD CITY 55 BEAVER FALLS 31 Ellwood copped their first league win by giving Beaver Falls a good drubbing. The Wolverines were out in front of the Tigers the whole game. From this game, Ellwood gained a little more spirit and were ready to keep on going. ELLWOOD CITY 37 ALIQUIPPA 59 The high spirited Ellwood team traveled to Alif quippa to suffer one of the worst setbacks of the year. Aliquippa attained a 24f9 lead by the half and just coasted through the remainder of the game. ELLWOOD CITY 42 New CASTLE 45 In the annual Blood Battle between New Castle and Ellwood, Ellwood was nosed out by 3 points. Both teams were determined to win. This spirit kept the game fast and thrilling to the end. ELLWOOD CITY 21 SHARON 41 Sharon came to Ellwood only to repeat the story by lacing Ellwood 41f21. Sharon was not in any danger at any time.

Ellwood started to click early in the fourth quarter, but in vain, Mike Gregg, Ellwood center, bagged 15 points for top honors. ELLWOOD CITY 51 BEAVER FALLS 49 Ellwood traveled to Beaver Falls to hand the Tigers a loss and also the cellar position. The game was a scrappy and fast one with both teams playing Afl ball. Ellwood's boys would not give an inch of ground to the Tigers. Bill Watterson, Ellwood forward tallied with less than a minute left to play, tying the score 4040. Bill Eady, Ellwood forward tallied the basket which tied the game in the regular game and then tallied the winning basket in the overtime period.

The Wolverf ines got off to a bad start and fought vainly to regain themselves. New Castle was sparked by Don Black who tallied 22 points. The game between the two rivals was one of the poorest in both of the schools' history.

High BasketballfsEoT1oN CHAMPIONS For the first time in Ellwood City basketball history, the junior high basketballers, under the direction of their new coach, Laird McCanna, won their first Section 14 Championship and went all the way to the Junior W.P.I.A.L. finals before they were beaten by Duquesne 30 to 23. Having only one regular back from last year's team, McCanna built this smoothfworking junior high cage team around Carl Mantz. The 1947 Wolverines, winning 23 out of 24 games, went through a nine game exhibition schedule without a defeat and then proceeded to win all 12 of their league battles. The Blue and Whites drew a first round bye in the Junior W.P.I.A.L. playoffs. In the quarterffinals, they were paired against Rochester. After a close Hrst half played on Beaver Falls court, which ended with the McCanna men ahead 19 to 17, they returned to pour it on the second half and walk off with a 36 to 21 victory. By a flip of the coin, Bellevue came to Lincoln Gym in the semiffinal round. The Pittsburghers were no match for the sharpfshooting Wolverine five, as the Ellwood City boys won overwhelmingly 42 to 24. However, the Wolverines reached the end of the trail when they met Duquesne for the Championship at the Homestead High court. After completely outplaying the Dukes the first half, the Wolverines had a complete reversal of form in the second half coming out on the short end of the score. . The Duquesne game marked the last junior high participation for regulars Don Mudric, Carl Mantz, Joe Giovannini, Tony Stramella, Tony DeCaria and substitutes jerry Richards, Toad Suppa, Ron Martin, and George Soos. These boys will form, in 1948, what is expected to be the most promising basketball team in Ellwood High history. 70 Baseball MURDERERS' ROW B. CALDERONE C. MILNES A. MILLER E.

We have a new gymnasf tics adviser, Miss Mary Kuben, a very capable director who has the perplexing task of finding an activity that will please all the students in her classes. The G. A. A.---the new Girls' Athletic Associaf tion, was formed by the sportsfloving girls of Lincoln High. Although we have had a girls athletic prof gram for many years, it was just this year that the girls were organized so that they could enter more sports activities. Some of the students do not under' stand what this girls athletic association is. Some think that it is just a basketball club or a club for one definite sport. This is not so. It includes al' most every activity in which students participate. The G. A. A. includes all the girls from ninth grade up. The girls cannot obtain an award even by working very diligently until the last semester of their junior year. The reason for this is that if they had no goal to obtain, they could get the award every year and there would be no thrill in getting it after the first time. Then too, they would have no desire to work industriously after obtaining the award the first year. The award is to be given at the close of each year at a special ceremony. This goal is rather difficult for the senior of this year to attain because of her various other school activities, but we have tried Girls' Sports B. Edwards J. Bookamer to set a goal low enough so that those senior girls who are really interested may attain it. The girls had the opportunity this year to visit the Beaver Falls G. A. A. on its twentyffifth anniversary when ten girls from each of the schools in the nearby districts were invited for a play day celebration. Observing how smoothly the Beaver Falls girls are operating their club, gave the girls attending a few hints for their organizations. The ten senior girls who are officers made the trip to Beaver Falls. They were: President, Mary Noneffg Vice President, Jean Murphy, Secretary, Alice Hines. Sports represented: bowling, Eleanor Beecham, hiking, Virginia Zingarog basketball, Anna Myers, mushball, Vivian Miller, swimming, Joan Walzakg bicycling, Rita Young and Pat Myers. The play day featured basketball. The girl from Ellwood who distinguished herself was Anna Myers. The other officers are: treasurer, jo Ann Marshallg tennis, Peggy Coleg tumbling, Joan Roccog football, Jerry Curtisg volleyball, Ruth Kellyg skating, Norma Guy, and dancing, Mary Salvatore. This broadening program of the girls athletic field it is hoped, will make the girls realize the importance of a healthy mind and body for their work and daily life in the future. 4' K , ? , Q' I tw gi K 1 Iwi, , Q 3 we X, 62 -an f -11 Y K aslllv. is v Q' ew ff 'Q 1 t if ' x , V M ' 5- 4 4, L! ... 52.3 na, 'uf From Sept. 3, 1946 to May 21, 1947 Remember . . .

Suddenly you didn't feel so old and so grownfup. Then thoughts of bygone years loomed in your mind.
