'N i I I , 4 S 1 45 tr ' 42 S 1 A '4l In an effort to repay the many opportunities presented us dur- ing our stay at the Mining and Mechanical Institute, we, the Class of 1950, are proud to dedicate this yearbook to the prosperity of our beloved school. As we enter this new decade at mid-century, we find the world in complete chaos. Man is slowly planning his destruction, and unless it is realized soon and curbed, Destiny will react before its scheduled time. On a much smaller scale, our school may be com- pared to this realistic horror. I-Iowever, we ,can prevent such a calamity by acting immediately in support of the school. To our Principal and Faculty, we can only wish continued suc- cess in their work. To the future classes of M. M. I. we may give a word of advice. Mining is a cornerstone to a good education. Appreciate and respect this opportunity with cooperation. As future Alumni, we Seniors will forever be touched by the lovable memories of our Alma Mater and do our best to promote the Prosperity of the Mining and Mechanical Instituten. f N'.F' a Q fr Q ' g5:l' E Q., xy i - ik'-rf?

We have accomplished many tasks with his aid, including the pub- lication of this yearbook, the 1950 MINA- MEK. Through the excellent leadership of Mr. Broad, our school has attained its distinc- tively high rank of which each and every student is proud. Besides partaking in school activities and organizations, one being the newly organized Student Cabinet, he has also received recognition as a leader in com- munity organizations. If we follow his fine example, we are sure to be a success in the world since Mr. Broad has always striven to make us better men and better citizens. , . - ..Y,, ,.,,,,..Wr...... ..,.. .W ..,. ,,..i-,,...A.,-W, .,...,,,+-. .. .,,.v,.-.,.,. -G. .Q--Q -H LAMBERT E. BROAD, M. A. gambert E. Broad PRINCIPAL PRINClPAL'S To THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1950: The completion of your secondary school education comes in the middle of the year which marks the end of the first half of the 20th Century, and you are stepping out into new fields at the beginning of the new half century. In a constantly changing world, the rate of change through new discoveries and inven- tions was phenomenal during the past fifty years and unless there is a marked change in trends, advances will come even more rapidly in the next five decades. Therefore, it will be necessary for all of you to continue to educate yourselves well and to strive hard to live successfully in the world of the coming half century. M. M. I. has attempted to contribute to MESSAGE your growth and education up to the present time. It will attempt to do the same for the youth of tomorrow. Your aid and assistance for the continuation of the better education at M. M. I. through the support of the Alumni Association will help to make this possible. Congratulations to you on the publication of this excellent MINAMEK, the Tenth Edition. Best wishes to you for a successful life of ser- vice in the years to come. p fwxbwi Z. Llama! 5 C FACULTY. . . Stofan Evans Newlzn ANDREW J. STOFAN, JOHN P. EVANS, B. A., M. A. C. E- ANDREW J. STOFAN, B. A., M. A. Being the only instructor with whom We have had four years of association, Mr. Stofan has done a superb job in presenting us with a good foundation in mathematics, Latin, and German. As dramatics director he has proven his capabilities by entertaining the neighbor- ing communities with many a well-humored play. His philosophy is based around the fact that success can be attained only through con- stant, industrious work. Though in many cases a strict disciplinarian, Mr. Stofan has provided many a timely joke and it is certain that his fatherly advice has been accepted with much appreciation by the Class of 1950. JOSEPH G. NEWLIN, B. s. times JOHN P. EVANS, C. E. Being a graduate of Lehigh University, Mr. Evans has been a great aid in depicting the qualifications of college life. He limits his explanation to six letter words and has done a commendable job as a physics, algebra, and mechanical drawing instructor. His sense of humor, interrupted by moments of sarcastic anger, will always be looked back upon with much satirical consideration. Along with Mr. Slegeski he has been our able class adviser to whom we express much thanks for the considerable cooperation offered. JOSEPH G. NEWLIN, B. S. Mr. Newlin, instructor of biology, chemistry, and democracy, is a graduate of Ursinus College where he majored in chemistry. As a teacher he has often amazed us with his ability to teach an ab- stract subject as chemistry, then switch around to the ever-changing Problems of Democracy, and take an active part and at the same time coach our Jay-Vees in such school activities as the Student Cab- inet. Having done all with admirable quality, he has received con- siderable appreciation from the student body, and we sincerely hope that many future classes at M. M. I. will beneiit through his capabil- ities. JOHN M, SLEGS B.

Having not only developed one of the most potent basketball teams of the region, Mr. Slegeski has also proven his capabilities as an instructor of history, civics, and physical education. His achieve- ments as a basketball hero at Freeland High and Bloomsburg State Teachers' College have made him one of the most popular and best liked among sport fans. His civic-mindedness and ability to put dreams to Work are assets which will undoubtedly bring consider- able success in his profession. We, the Class of 1950, are highly ap- preciative of his unprecedented humor, timely advice, and consider- able cooperation in class activities. PAUL E. A. BURALLI, B. A., M. A. Mr. Buralli, who for the past two years has been director of the English and literature departments, has received the respect and ad- miration of our entire class for his superb teaching abilities. Many times he has amazed us with his adept philosophy of religion and politics. In the future Mr. Buralli hopes to visit several European countries including England, which he toured previous to the War. Truly, he has been a great asset to M. M. I., and we Wish to express our gratitude for his leadership in our Work. JOHN D. LANTZ, B. S. As instructor of geometry, trigonometry, mechanical drawing, and shop, Mr. Lantz has been a great success in his undertakings here at M. M. I. Although We received his ingenuity only in shop, we are quite certain that he is well liked in the classroom since his personality outside the class is one to be admired by all students. We hope that his stay at Mining has been a happy one and that many more students will benefit through his successful efforts. Miss Irene Pollack . C L E R K Only one person in the entire school was able to in- terrupt the conversations so very typical of high school boys, and that Was our friendly secretary, Miss Irene Pollack. Her appealing personality and ability are factors which are cer- tain to make her a virtuoso as a secretary. We, the Class of 1950, offer our heartiest thanks for her participation in gymnasium activities, the publication of the M. M. I. Flashes, and the 1950 MINAMEK, and most important, the provi- dence of feminine beauty. -, , f ww ,f ' v .5?wQ , gf' TY'-was'-'A' . sim if? , ii, Charles Mesmer .

CABINET I A 26 Under the supreme guidance of our Principal, N l' Mr. Broad, and the highly idealistic Mr. ew 1n, the Student Cabinet, an organization which has been stagnant for tvvo years, was again assembled. This ' ' ' ' d t to ex- organization is an opportunity for the stu en ress his opinions and in some cases determine the Y P actual administration of the school. This years ffi' t' the Cabinet has proven one of the most e cien in history of Mining. A Well-planned noon hour program Was devised by the Cabinet, which in its entirety has received ' h duled much favorable comment. Through its sc e I eetings it has accomplished excessive legislation m O 7 for the betterment of the school. Two members from ' ' 'Gituted each class, elected by a majority vote, cons the assembly body. Though a Student Cabinet has been. organiZ9d several times before, success Was limited. We ' 'zation Seniors have done our best to get this organif t re rolling this year, and sincerely hope that the 11 11 students vvill continue its activities for many y6a1'S ' ' ' ' t nce. to come.

BI'03d 28 Before leaving Mining in Class of '50 appointed the large our Junior year, the r majority of its year- book staff. With this early start We were able to produce a yearbook, which in our estimation 1S better than ever before. This is the tenth edition of the MINAMEK and in comparison to previous years, one can easily detect the increasing quality and ingenuity of the yearbook as the years pass by- Though at times We may have faltered in our work, there was still that determination to publish the book which eventually inspired the students to its completion. We extend our sincere appreciation to Daniel Bavolack, who took many of the basketball candids, and to Mr. Broad, the faculty adviser Wl'10 lias done an exceptionally good job in guiding the c ass.

The BAND 32 At present Mining can be credited for the exceptional musical ability lying Within its student body. By the addition of several musically inclined Freshmen and through the superb guidance of the experienced upper- class musicians, this past year the Mining band was at its peak. Again Mr. Broad has resumed his position as directorg and though We have not actually attained any great publicity, our standards were very high. In sev- eral cases it has inspired our basket- ball team on to victory and at other times has entertained the listening public at our school plays.

Under the guidance of Mr. Lantz fwho, by the Way, possesses a mel- odious voicej our students actually Went for it in a big way. It is a great opportunity for one who does not play an instrument to learn music. There was such a great response that a special quartet was even organized which actually amazed the student body. At several of our assemblies they have exhibited their ability through the singing of hymns and at times mod- ern music. It would be quite an accomplish- ment if, in a few years this chorus would sing at our basketball games. We suggest that the organization continue. 33 L-5 DRAMATIC CLUB l AY c Mr. Stefan, Nash, Kresge, Wassel, Klingerman, Olelyar, l f on, Liuyulsn, U..,...---, W I MAGIC CEQ .,.,..,,,-fm: Both Dramatic and Magic Clubs are also HeVY1y.O1'gan1zed clubs in our extra-curricular act1v1t1es.

'vi half MM enged 53-34 defeat to Foster Township. The Preppers also held wins over McAdoo, Freeland, St. Gabriels, and Hazle Township. Mining jour- neyed to West Hazleton, and despite their de- termination to beat the Blue and Gold, a ser- ious ankle injury to Brooks Holtzclaw dimmed our hopes as We lost 35-22. Brooks was out for the remainder of the season, a hard blow to the team, since he was by far the best re- bounder in the league. For the team of 1949-50 we have the most sincere admiration and respect. The students of M.M.I. possess a profound appreciation for their fine accomplishments on the basketball court. The fought hard and with much courage and always upheld the best traditions of M.M.I. We can point to this year's team with pride. To them we can truthfully say, You're our champs! Our J.V. squad was coached very capably this season by Mr. Newlin. He led the team to an excellent record of 20 wins against 2 losses. The Junior-Preppers took the J.V. Anthracite Championship with 10 victories and 2 losses. The defeats were inflicted by Hazle Township, 43-41, and Freeland High, 26-24. John Zawatsky, a promising sophomore, was by far the outstanding player as he led the attacks with a remarkable 11 point average per game, totaling 196. He was aided greatly by Richie Yevak and Mike Wassel, two mainstays on next season's varsity. Bobby Sharpe, Joe Barkanic, Davie Zierdt, Dan Sitch and Bob Os- troff also starred for the Preppers. Since the graduating class leaves seven va- cant varsity berths, we sincerely hope that these will be filled capably, and a successful 1950-51 basketball team will result. 37 X- 1.

Each pump is independently primed by a HAZLETON 50 CFM priming pump, priming thru a Hazleton Vacuum Breaker and HAZLETON priming valves. The priming cycle can be initiated either manually or automatically, but once initiated, the priming um starts and stops automatically and the main pump starts when it is fully primed.
