Education is both the foundation and the unifying force of our democratic way of life. It is the main- spring of our economic and social progress. It is the highest expression of achievement in our society, ennobling and enriching human life.

The area, including Adams and Middlesex Townships, with Mars and Valencia Boroughs in Butler County, is located ideally between two north-south state highways, Route 8 on the east and Route 19 on the west. The center of the district is 11 miles from Butler Interchange of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, for travel east, and 7 miles from the Perry Interchange on Route 19 for west bound travel. The whole of the district is within a 200 mile radius of Cleve- land, Washington, Baltimore, Harrisburgh, and Buffalo, with Pittsburgh just 25 miles away. The Mars Borough Shopping District as well as nearby Butler and Northern Pittsburgh Shopping Centers, are within a 5-20 mile radius and easily accessible.

A program of modem math has been inaugcrated and library facilities are available to all students. Three schools in the school district contain grades one through four. An intermediate building in Mars houses the fifth and sixth graders and is arranged by departments, which is similar to the Junior and Senior High School. New subjects are being added to the elementary cirricu- lum. An introduction to modern languages and a physical education program have been started. The Junior High introduces students to a high school atmosphere. Ninth grade students can choose which of the tive curriculums they wish to take through high school. As they reach Junior High, students also find more extracurricular activities open to them. They participate in more social activities as well.

Teachers, as well as students, prepared for the school's evaluation by a committee representing the Middle States Accrediting Association. The goal, accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, will be announced later next fall. Accreditation is a prestige factor for schools and gives criteria with which to judge them in relation to other schools. Two key points under consideration wereg I lj the school's philosophy and objectives, 125 Characteristics of the school and community. The evaluating committee, which was composed of educators from throughout the state, made a top-to-bottom survey of the school, its facili- ties, and its curriculum. When evaluations were made, factors such as size, type, location, financial support, and state requirements were not permitted to justify failure to provide a program and facilities appropriate to the needs of the school and com- munity. Individual staff members, as well as the separate evaluation committees, worked on a rigorous schedule. The various departments and program of studies were evalu- ated by faculty mernbers, prior to the regular evaluation. I SPONSOR EVALUATION Dr. Albert Manerino Superviring Principal Mr. F. Patrick Long Elementary Principal Mr. Robert C. Downie High School Principal This year was a year of devotion, working toward the Middle Atlantic Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools Evaluation for the high school. The Supervising Principal, Dr. Albert Manerino, sup- ported the team effort of the principal and faculty to this end. Dr. Manerino, as Supervising Principal has experi- ence in education as a teacher, counselor, and adminis- trator. Mr. Robert C. Downie, has been with the Mars High School for fifteen years serving as a teacher and principal. This year he has guided the staff through a successful year highlighted in April by the three day evaluation. Mr. F. Patrick Long is the elementary principal and is the leader of an elementary program that is providing well prepared students for high school. Mr. Long has served the Mars Area Schools both as a teacher and principal for many years. 17 MATH DEPARTMENT r--' 'sv-grew ' T555 , T earn? YA ' - .

The study of mathematics is related to practically every academic course. Its basic concepts will later assist those who now apply themselves. Faculty members must constantly keep abreast with new math advances to prepare students for the changing modem world. In addition to the regular academic courses, students are offered accelerated courses. At the beginning of Junior High, the accelerated students are given eighth grade math while their classmates are studying seventh grade arithme- tic. This enables the advanced students to take calculus in their Senior year. This will give them a better background for college courses. ATH Mrs. Dorothy Wilkinson 8111 Mall!

The science curriculum in Mars High School deals with units of science that are designed to meet the student's future needs. Leaming is conducted by classroom-laboratory methods which provide opportunities for instruction, investigation, and experimentation. Science is treated in such a way that the student is able to seek job opportunities in today's scientific and auto- mated age. The Science Department is beginning to employ a study of advanced science from Biology to Chemistry which gives thc student a closer relationship to science as prac- ticed in today's research facilities, ' SCIENCE Mr, Joseph Mrocheck Biology CHEMISTRY STUDENTS Ilwkf Nfl' Uf 'WW Nlflilfmellf- FUTURE NURSES learn lhe fundamentals' of clzcmutry SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTME T 51. vi 2 , Mr. Thomas Hawkins World C ullurcs Jourltnlisnl Social studies are concerned mainly with the whole life of man, not only the dusk of the past, but in the light of the future as well. Keeping pace with our rapidly changing world requires a constantly improved version of the cur- riculm. The development of alert and intelligent citizens equipped with enough understanding and courage to meet today's crucial moments of history is a primary objective of the course at Mars High. The senior Problems of Democracy class included major political, economic, and social problems confronting the American people. A review of the early colonial days on into the Civil War and Reconstruction Period was provided by the junior American History course.

A senior high elective, psychology, was made a part of the social studies program and others are to be added. Psychology helped young people to understand themselves and others better. It wisely prepared them for marriage and a vocation in an attempt to apply the material to the student's daily life. Economics contributed to an understanding of society's economic problems. It taught students about everything concerned with business, money, and credit. In Geography the major industries and commercial regions were brought into focus.

Social studies are conducted to implement the aims, objectives, and philosophy of the Mars Area Schools. These courses and related activities develop skills, concepts, and knowledge that help provide a uprovoca- tive education which should stimulate the students' think- ing for therest of their lives. Social studies courses provide an opportunity for stu- dents to express themselves orally through the use of panels, debates, and reports. Mars High School social studies teachers are utilizing available instructional material and equipment and are looking for new ideas for social studies teaching, acquiring classroom library's, visual aids, and research books. t s WORLD HISTORY projectr were made by 7lIr graders to study ancient Roman civilization. 21 wi VW' SKA f'-s.

ENGLISH One of the main projects of the English department was the revision of the course of study this year. The de- partment prepared a style sheet for use by any department assigning term papers. They also prepared reading lists for use by senior high students. A Journalism class, which publishes the Planet Dust, has been added. Faculty members have worked with Miss Sloan, reading consultant for Butler County. Representing the Mars High School English department at the Midwestern Convention in New Castle were Mrs. Latshaw and Mrs, Meckly. Miss Neeley and Miss Young attended the Penn State Conference. Mr. Kemper has at- tended the monthly meetings of the Tri-State Study Concil. LATIN Latin, the language of 2,000 years ago, is still being studied by many Mars students. The basis of many mod- ern languages, Latin gives students a firm foundation for the study of foreign languages and English. Second year Latin students were required to hand in projects dealing with the Roman Empire. First year stu- dents were required to write term papers.

It is a demand- ing struggle which must be confronted with ability and initiative. From the training otiercd by Mars High, these requirements should be amply met. Within the past year, new typewriters and more up-to- date office practice machines were added. The business department teaches general ofiice duties as well as methods of operating these machines. Included in the list of subjects taught are Bookkeep- ing, Business Law, Typing, and Stenography. Miss Rita Aloe, continued in her efforts to turn out 'X capable, properly trained secretaries. Business Math and Typing are areas covered by Mrs. Doris Bowers, who has been teaching at Mars High for two years. Shorthand and Ofiice Practice are taught to the stu- dents by Mrs. Shirley Leslie, a new teacher at the school this year.

Art students pooled their artistic abilities to supply posters announcing events occurring at school and pro- grams for plays and concerts held in the school audi- torium. Art students also entered the Scholastic Art Con- test. The classes painted various scenes on the windows of the cafeteria and hall. The art department also cooperated with Mars mer- chants by painting windows with a Halloween theme. Crafts helped students develop their creative ability in the use of clay, enamel, leather goods, and porcelain. Miss Sandra Creighton, the vocal teacher in the Music department, helped Jr. High students expand their appre- ciation of music. She also directed the chorus which pro- vided music for assemblies and presented a Spring Vocal Concert. Mr. Ebner taught instrumental music. He conducted both the Varsity and Cadet bands which performed at football games and pep rallies in the fall.

A student taking these subjects is offered a semester or more in metal work, plastics, or mechanical drawing. Having at their disposal modern safety equipment, the students reveal their abilities by the products they turn out, All precautions are taken with the machinery and tools. Every boy must know how to use the equipment and must pass safety tests to be qualified to operate it. The experiences the students have had in the shop pro- gram may be useful to them in the later life, either as a trade or in the home workshop. Seventh grade boys are required to take one year of wood shop. This serves as an introduction to the entire Industrial Arts program. The specific objectives are to teach hand tools, safety, the jig-saw, drill press, and mortising machine.

Mrz Robert Simmons Mr. Michael Crist Glndanrz' Counselor, Physical Ed., Health Junior High Sound physical development creates a body in which the mind can work more cfhciently. Mars has found that through mental and physical developmentg the molding of a more complete individual is achieved. By dividing the junior and senior high into two separate guidance departmentsg it was possible for the guidance counselors to give each student individual attention. Mr. Robert Simmons provided guidance for thc junior high pupils and Mr. Eugene Danser aided the senior high students. Under competent instructiong the student acquires physical skills which can be a source of pleasure and accomplishment. In addition to learning the basic fundamentals of all sports, the boys and girls are taught rules of sportsmanship and co-operation under the supervision of Mr. Michael Crist, Mr. Paul Douds, and Mrs. Darlene Wcinzetl. Mr. Crist and Mr. Douds also teach senior health classes which are compulsory for graduation. The classes present the student with all aspects of physical and mental health. MR.

It is particularly stressed in accordance with proper driving habits and skills. After learning the fundamentals of driv- ing, as well as the state laws, students are taken for their state exams. The training of our future homemakers is helped by the newly-equipped Home Economics department, Besides sewing and cooking, students are also taught childcare, fashions, and etiquette. Mrs. Lois Best and Miss Rebecca Richards, heads of the cooking and sewing departments respectively, enable the students to grasp these valuable homcmaking techniques. An array of modern health rooms, each fully equipped, assured the students of a good medical care program. Mrs. Helen Knaell, registered nurse, and Dr. Morris, medical doctor, formed the heads of the medical staff, while Dr. Edward Campbell, dentist, headed the dental clinic. Supplying the students with research material and cn- joyable reading, the Library offers its valuable services to the entire school. New books continue to fill the shelves of the room, and ideas for changes which will help the program are being expressed. With the ready assistance of Mrs. Vida Hudson, librarian, students are able to at- tain a wide-spread variety of research information and other needed material. Many classes were instnicted as to the use of the library and students used the facilities for research papers.

Mem- ories of victorious football games, banging lockers, unfinished assignments, final exams, and enduring friendships were vivid as the evening advanced. This was the scene at the graduation ceremony for the Class of 1964. Throughout the year class enthusiasm was displayed as it sponsored refreshment stands, the talent show, and sold school stationery and charms. Much effort was also shown by the Seniors when they worked along with the Student Council to advance the plans for obtaining a foreign exchange student next year. Particularly exciting was the football game with Evans City, in which Mars not only won by the score 25-33, but also brought a traditional rivalry to an end, due to the new jointure between Evans City and Zlelienople. At a fall assembly 15 Senior football players and 24 Senior band members were awarded sweaters for their fine perfoml- ances. The trip to New York City last June made the effort of selling magazines and sponsoring a talent show and play in the Junior year really seem worthwhile. Preparation is now being completed for the rapidly advan- cing future by those going to college and those seeking employ- ment. Four years of extensive study have laid the foundation for the unknown goals which lie ahead. Although greater re- sponsibilities must be assumed with the coming years, the memories of Mars High will always remain in their hearts.

A IN MEMORIAM And God shall wipe away all the tears from their eyesg and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, nor pain any more for the former things are passed away. Richard T. Stawecki, a member of the Class of l964, died in August of 1962 as the result of an automobile accident. He had an outstanding love for nature and was one of two boys from ' this district selected to attend the Butler County Conservation Camp. Rick will always be sincerely remembered by his classmates. 48 NEW YORK TRIP Three days! It seemed like only three hours spent in this fabulous city. What happened to the time? These were some of the thoughts of the juniors as they relaxed in the bus on the way home, and many of them looked back and laughed about the long walks that ended in circles. Rising early to eat breakfast, the group left the Edison Hotel and walked a short distance to the cafeteria. Thus the day began. There were so many things to do and so many sights to see. Touts included the beautiful Cathedral of St. John the Divine and the United Nations building. An enthralling concert was enjoyed at Radio City Music Hall. Taking the Liberty Island ferry, the class visited the Statue of Libeny. Lack of sleep rather than lack of patriotism caused a few of the students to remain on the ground and gaze up in awe while others more energetic climbed a myriad of steps to the top. This exciting trip will not soon be forgotten by the Class of 1964, and the many experiences shared by all will long be remembered. TUESDA Y'S TOUR included the United Nations. GLORIA, Lois, and Linda res! nller a long day of riglzrseeilig. SENIORS vixiled the Slnlue of Liberly. READY for a good nighrlr sleep?

As Christmas approached, the class again sponsored the sale of wreaths. This project aided not only themselves but also the retarded children at Polk State School. Belles on Their Toes , the junior play, was a rollicking comedy about the Cheaper by the Dozen family, Proceeds from the play, with money made from football stands and other projects, permitted the juniors to see the myriad wonders of the M1964 World's Fair. Working to make money for the traditional New York Trip, the Class of 65 did not neglect their academic studies. College bound students took the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test and the College Boards for use when seeking college entrance. Other students investigated the possibilities of nursing and business schools. Many new subjects filled the students' curriculum. Helping to advance in a fast moving world were advanced math courses. Physics, although at times very con- fusing, gave an insight into the workings of the atomic age we live in today. Juniors taking a foreign language were stimulated by the new language lab, one of three in the county. Commercial courses provided the necessary skills needed for those students seeking a career in the business world. 'r K t njr- --.2 Q-1 SV .iii 'ii' il. 1 or . P 'ffs e '1 1 .L .. rl X A - 1.

On March 9, 10 the National Educational Development Test was taken to determine each student's ability and national standing. This and other tests aided the students in the planning for the future and helped them to realize their capabilities. Many of the students also participated on the athletic field of Mars High School for the first time. Football, basketball, and cheerleading gave the sophomores a chance to express themselves physically. Doug Barber, Dave Foster, and Bob Cleva are only a few of the out- standing athletes who made this a memorable year. Team effort was also displayed by the sophomores when they gave their support to Stanley Truver, a fellow class- mate, who unfortunately had to have his leg amputated in the fall of last year. Stanley's classmates made many trips to the hospital, gave him moral support, and fol- lowed his recovery with interest. The Class of 1966 used efliciency and economy early in the year by choosing class officers and planning the SOPHOMORE OFFICERS: Dan Goss, Vice President: Carol Black, Treasurer: Doug Barber, President: Kathy Burner, Secrclary. year's projects. The sale of chocolate candy and blue and gold ball-point pens raised additional funds for the class , ,S Q treasury. Because of these projects the sophomores have fp iv ' 5 g , learned the importance of working together toward a f -g n: common goal. 1 ' 2' l Aaron, Aaron, Lois Shirley . it x e 'e is t 'll i .aw A ,I ':.- . ,V sp , ,fs 5 w ' ' fl 4fAM2 Aiken, Anderson, Balfour, Barber, Benninger, Berner, Bilenski, Black, Blackmore, Blandford, Kathleen Ruth David Douglas James Kathie Dave Carol Susan Linda K I 0 K .ff bw., drhnlv. 4 4 I .4 A M N Bongartz, Boschele.

This year's ninth grade class otiicers displayed this in carrying out their duties. The Class of 67 has fostered and stimulated the student growth in every activity or event they have partici- pated in. Early in the year the class organized and selected reliable people to lead their class throughout the year. Surfing Haotenannyn, their tirst class party, was held on November 5. Refreshments and live entertainment were provided. To add to the nautical atmosphere set by the theme, decorations such as fishing nets and sea shells adomed the lobby of Mars High School. Freshmen have discovered many new worlds in the fields of Latin and Algebra. For the first time, French and Spanish have been offered to the Freshmen Class and many of them have taken advantage of this opportunity. Now that they know what high school life is truly like, they should go through their remaining three years of high school learning and furthering their education. They will find that the best possible way to do this is to enjoy their work and put their very best forth in all their studies. Courses like Biology, Geometry, and Physics will give these students a chance to exercise these qualities. By so doing, they will in turn, leam to get along in life.

The eight grade class has taken another important step up the ladder to success. As novices, the students entered the high school to begin their second year. They con- tinued to strive for the feeling of belonging and being a part of high school life by offering themselves to what was going on around them. These students showed their eagemess in belonging by their early organization and their enthusiastic partici- pation in various school activities. By doing these things, they learned what it means to work as a group. Rex Hurd, Jim Knauff, Dan Housekeeper, Jerry Black, and David Kiley added their strength to the Junior High basketball team. Many other members of the class partici- pated in various other school activities such as: Junior High Chorus, the Cadet Band, and other clubs. The scholastic achievement of these students was dis- played by the scores which they received on the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills. They will soon find this is only a sample of the tests which they will be given in the near future. Class eagemess and enthusiasm resulted in receiving the gift of belonging and becoming a part . Before they may accept, it is necessary for them to put forth their best. Fond memories of this past year will fill their hearts as more continue to crowd in throughout their life.

Soon they fell into the routine of high school and became acquainted with the many new areas of study, such as home economics and woodcraft. The Class of 1969 became a tightly woven organiza- tion by electing home room officers and representatives early in the year. They showed great enthusiasm by participating in the production of the Lo-Down , the junior high newspaper. A get-acquainted party familarized them with one another and with the school program. Each student's individual ability was tested by the Otis Intelligence Test and the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. S 1 1 t. 1 , , 'km' Anderson. Asbiornsen, Augustine, Balfour.. Barlell.

HO OR SOCIETY Membership in the National Honor Society is an honor for those students of the Senior class who have maintained Z1 3.0 average or better throughout their careers in Mars High School. These students were selected at the beginning of the second semester. At the graduation ceremonies, each mem- ber was recognized and presented with a gold National Honor Society pin. A member of this organization has something to re- member, to be proud of, and to cherish. Next year, a planned change in the society will enable Sophomores and Juniors to participate. F.

Student Teaching Day provided an excellent oppor- tunity for the Future Teachers of America to experience many of the facets of the teaching profession. The members demonstrated their ability as hosts and hostesses by greeting visitors to the school during Ameri- can Education week. They learned that fun and hard work came together as they served the annual Butler County Co-ordinating Coun- cil banquet. Toothbrushes were sold throughout the year to finance a trip to the annual Pennsylvania Future Teachers con- vention in Harrisburg. Mrs. Wilkinson and a future teacher attended the two day event.

COUNCIL HASTENS FOREIG EXCHANGE A foreign exchange program was accepted with a mix- ture of determination and delight by the students and com- munity of the Mars Area. Previous attempts at such a program were not success- ful, but the student council with renewed enthusiasm, revived interest in the project and worked toward its conclusion. .All profits gathered from various activities such as the Twrip dance. student store, and the selling of hats were directed toward the goal of bringing a foreign student to the community. The student government itself, was reorganized into separate councils for the senior and junior high. Meeting together several times, the two councils shared the respon- sibilities of promoting good student-faculty relations and of discussing the problems and ideas submitted by the student body. Mr. Danser was sponsor for senior council and Mr. Simmons for junior council. As in previous years the student council complied the Student Handbook which is organized for the convenience of next year's students. STUDENT COUNCIL-First Raw: G. Griffith, G. Cinfre, I. Kosher, L.

Meetings are held monthly and by conducting them in French the mem- bers are helped to develop the conversational phase of the language. On February l I the sophomore and junior French students presented the play K'Cinderella.l' All members of the club and any interested public were invited to observe this age old classic performed in the French language. December was the month of initiation. After the com- pletion of the many stunts, the new members felt that they had really earned the priviledge of belonging to the club. Live entertainment by the Galaxies, was presented for the enjoyment of those who attended and refreshments were served to end the evening. The recent addition of a three year language program to the curriculum has made it possible for all freshmen, sophomores, and juniors with a 2.0 or better average to join the club. This will result in a much larger club next year. ln the spring, a dance The Expressof' was held in the front lobby for all the student body. With the help of Mr. Gaiser, the club sponsor, an atmosphere of life on the Left Bank of Paris was developed through elaborate decorations of dripping candles and cafe tables.

USE LANGUAGE L BOR TORY LANGUAGE LABORATORY provides private tutoring effect for students as they receive instructions by an electronic tape. SPA ISH CLUB Promoting interest in the Spanish speaking nations, their language and customs, is the purpose of the Spanish Club. At the present time America faces a great challenge in Latin America: a knowledge of this area is therefore important to the student and to the nation. Throughout the year the club members strived to help fulfill this obligation to their country. In the newly installed language laboratory, the students learned to pronounce and speak Spanish more correctly through individual practice. Club activities began early in December with the initia- tion of all students who have maintained a 2.5 average or better in Spanish I. After failing the fake entrance exami- nation, the prospective members were called upon to per- form many awkward, but amusing stunts. The evening was brought to a close with refreshments for all. Spanish foods and Mexican dishes were the highlight of a dinner-meeting held in February. The favorites were tamales and enchillades. After dinner, slides of Spain were shown to the group. A lively fiesta, planned entirely by the club and its sponsor, Miss Kottas, took place in April. The celebration was held to observe Pan-American Day and the students had a wonderful time bringing to life the Latin America which they had studied. SPANISH CLUB-First Raw: E. Brown, D. Palrus, C.

Fred Hes- penhide was successful in defeating his opponent, Larry Kaufman, in a fast-moving gladitorial duel, while Diane Neese and Larry Fox were the happy bride and groom in the Latin Wedding. Jim Thompson, Imperator, and his guests were served Roman style by slave girls and boys from the freshman class. The long, low tables and the menu, written in Latin, added to the Roman atmosphere. Guests also wore cos- tumes depicting Latin dress. Initiation tested the humor and endurance of the can- didates, as the old members enjoyed their comical capers. To conclude the initiation each new member signed the club charter at a candle light ceremony. After this service all Latin Club members were invited to a dance and re- freshments of potato chips and soft drinks. Under the guidance of Mrs. Marybelle Anderson, the club strives to keep the spirit of this ancient civilization alive and to acquaint the students in associating the Ro- man history with their modem life. The club also proves beneficial to the members in class work by providing a greater interest in the subject of Latin. On class day, the boy and girl with the highest rating in Latin are awarded a gift of monetary value. L. Blandford, Bill Kennihan, B. Crago. R. Anderson, M. Mar- burger, S. Aaron, P. Nealon, H.

'Nil BIG M presenlcd by band during a pmclice session CLARENCE EBNER, Band Direclor VARSITY BAND On April 17, a program of music was presented by the band at their annual spring band concert. The atmosphere set by the many show tunes spread into the audience as the unique lighting and fascinating props added to the effect. The Mars Band was seen at many events during the course of the 1963-64 year. The Royal Blue and Gold Band marched at the Veterans' Day parade in Butler, the Santa Claus parade in Bellevue, and played at the Me- morial Day in service in Mars. James Barber was selected to represent Mars High at Honors Band and Mid-Westem Band this year. Louise Elmer, David Hauserman, and Russ Miller were also selected to play at Mid-Western Band. At Awards Night each senior member was awarded a blue sweater for his activity in the band. Patches were also given to the Cadet Band members. After the presentation, movies of band camp were shown and re- freshments were served. The majorettes and Hag twirlers led the band onto the field with their heads held high. These girls practiced a great deal and developed routines for their many perform- ances. Their routines were worked out to the music played by the band and they also helped with the special forma- tions such as the Mill and the Football. The members of the color guard and the head majorette led the band onto the field for the pre-game flag salute and the half- time entertainment. PRECISIO DRILL EXERCISES VARSITY BAND-Fmnr Row: G.

The band members tried to create a new and different atmosphere for the home spectators by the use of lights in their formations. The Fantasy Ball highlighted the activities that were sponsored by the band. It was held on December 27, in the Mars High School cafeteria. The dance was open to the entire student body. Those who attended the dance spent the evening dancing to the musical selections pre- sented by the Richland Swing Band. The climax of the evening came when, senior, Connie Renick was chosen Band Queen by those who attended the dance. Connie was crowned by Hiram Ball, president of the band.

Yearbook stall members gained valuable journalistic experience and fulfilled an important school service by publishing the 1964 Planet. Making important decisions and meeting deadlines gave each member a sense of responsibility and a common goal. Junior members have been added to a staff previously composed of only seniors. This will provide the 1965 yearbook staff with a group of experienced leaders. Seven individual departments worked as a closely knit unit under the supervision of Thomas Hawkins, faculty sponsor. The departments were as follows: Literary, Make-up, Finance, Photography, Sports, Business, Typists, and News Bureau. Gathering material and writing articles concerning classes and organizations was the main job of the literary staff. The typists then assumed the task of preparing the copies for the printer. Providing page layouts and designing the yearbook cover were the responsibilities designated to the make-up staff. Their work was especially important since they had to be sure of placing every article and picture in just the right place. The business stalf had the task of financing the year- book. They worked closely with the business staff who had the bookkeeping responsibilities. The photography department took pictures and identi- lied them with the proper captions. The sports staff identi- fied sports pictures and listed football and basketball scores.

In addition to working on the paper, the class also studied the methods and procedures of good joumalism. Starting October 31, the Planet Dust was published monthly in the Butler County News Record. This marked the first time that the school newspaper has been published in a regular community publication. Between issues of the News Record, mimeographed papers called Hyers were printed for the infomation of the student body. On February 21, the Journalism class visited the Zelienople office of the News Record. There they witnessed how a regular paper operates. PLANET DUST-Standing: Mr. Hawkins, Adv., D. Henderson, D.

Decorated in a fall harvest scene with scarecrows, Indian corn, and cornstaiks, the cafeteria set the stage for the wide variety of music presented by the Monotones. Senior, Kitty Briceland, was crowned football queen by football captain, Bob Ritchey. As a gift from the mem- bers of the club, Kitty received a silver chami bracelet with her name, and the words football queen inscribed on it. Also attached to it was a miniature football. The Girls' Athletic Association is under the direction of Mrs. Darlene Weinzetl, girls' physical education teacher. Early in the year the club organized itself and the members elected Susan Hamilton as presidentg Janet Frazer, vice-presidcntg Carol Black, secretaryg and Janice Nicklas, treasurer. The club consists of Sophomore, Junior, and Senior girls. In order to become a member you must be a partici- pant of one or more athletic activities within the school. The Girls, Athletic Association has provided a way for girls to socialize with each other in many different ways. 81 VARSITY CHEERLEADERS-I. Nicklas, S. McCosby, J. Fraser, S. Kennedy, Capt.: C.

We want action! This favorite cheer of the varsity and junior varsity football and basketball teams, was yelled long and loud by the girls at every game this year. In addition to cheering at all football and basketball games, the varsity and junior varsity cheering squads were responsible for the pep rallies, student buses to away games, and introducing new cheers to the student body. On the aftemoon before the football game with arch- rival, Richland, the girls organized a pep rally to boost the school spirit. This rally produced quite a few unique events, including visiting cheerleaders. Practice starts early for the cheerleaders, although they donit begin to cheer before the student body until the school year begins, During the summer the squads meet two or more times a week to revise their cheers and to keep up with the changes in the style of cheerleading. One project the varsity girls participated in was the Mars Area Boosters Organization. The purpose of this group is to support the athletic program of Mars High. With the varsity football and basketball players, they canvassed the neighborhood to obtain boosters, who are composed of parents and friends of the school system. During the basketball season the twelve girls were kept busy making posters and Welcome signs for the op- posing teams. The groups used thc women's faculty lounge to welcome the visiting cheerleaders with something cold to drink at half time. The three senior cheerleader's last official act was to choose the next year's squads. Tryouts were held in the spring for any girls interested in becoming a cheerleader. 83 HALL P TROL How do I get to the shop? Where is the Home Econom- ics Room? These were just a few of the many questions asked by the seventh graders at the beginning of the school year. For a few days, until the boys were placed in strategic positions in the halls, the seventh graders wan- dered about in bewilderment. Chosen by the faculty, these boys were given the responsibility of keeping order in the halls between classes. and at pep rallies and assemblies. DRIVERS' ED. Roadeo! This was the name of the safety program pre- sented by a local insurance company during which the members of the Driver's Education Club tested their reac- tion ability by quick response to a ringing bell. This ex- periment taught them that increased speed does require a greater stopping distance. With their minds upon safety at all times, the students must complete classroom work before beginning to drive on the highway. To conclude the course, the members are permitted to take their driver's test in Butler or Pittsburgh. All students that have participated in the course and have received their license through it are members of the club, sponsored by Mr. Edmund Skacan.

The twelve active members and three alternates, provided entertainment for many school activities and for community affairs. Some of the occasions for which the girls have per- formed include the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter Assemblies. One of the members, Erica Augustine, was honored by being chosen to represent Mars High School at Mid- Western Chorus, in Rochester, Pennsylvania. The choral show was a three day event which featured the finest high school singers in Mid-Western Pennsylvania. Under the direction of Miss Sandra Creighton, the En- semble added much to the atmosphere of the school pro- gram. Miss Creighton has been interested in music since the age of nine. While earning her B.S. in music at Geneva College, she was active in the Gir1's Sextet and the school choir, the Genevans. Miss Creighton has become an essen- tial part of Mars High, as she directs and sponsors tl1e Junior High Chorus, Senior Chorus, and Girl's Ensemble. CHORUS OW A ELECTIVE CHORUS-Front Row: S.

Under the direction of Miss Sandra Creighton, the chorus impressed the student body with its Christmas and Easter programs. The true meaning of these holidays was projected into the hearts of the students in a way which made their vacations seem more meaningful. They also presented a Spring Festival with a wide .variety of show tunes. The public was always invited to attend these events so the community could appreciate the choir's efforts. Roberta Fuhr, T.

S7 THE CO RTSHIP OF SENIOR PLAY Really stacked, huh Dad? whispered Eddie Corbett under his breath. This was just one of the many amusing but innocent remarks Eddie made about one of his fathers dates. The Courtship of Eddie's Farther directed by Mrs. Latshaw, was the title of the Senior Play for this year. Eddie, being the main character, tried very hard to find a wife for his father, Tom Corbett. Eddie, Tom's ten year old, sensed his father's feeling of loneliness aftcr the death of his mother. He was always trying to help, sometimes being too helpful. But his inten- tions were always good. He was positive his father needed his expert advise in choosing the right girl, Eddie went about this task very seriously hoping to make his father happy, which he did in the end. Nine girls and eight boys took part in the play which was held April 2 and 3. EDDIE rounilx up prosper-live wives for his father. LOVE? NOT ME! Nat this happy lmchelor.

UNIOR PL Y The tragic assassination of President Kennedy caused the postponement of this year's junior play, Belles on Their Toes. Originally scheduled for November 21 and 22, the performance was presented on November 29. The play, a take-off from Cheaper by the Dozen, centers around the struggles of the twelve Gilbrcth chil- dren while their widowed mother makes a lecture tour of Europe. The childrcn's problems which range from chickenpox to exploding rootbeer, increase when Cousin Leora dis- covers they have rented a room to Mr. Hathaway, a complete starnger. Just before Mother's return home, it appears that the family will have to separate. Upon Mrs, Gilbreth's arrival Mr. Hathaway brings back the Children's money that he took by mistake. He also found students for Mother's school, allowing the family to stay together. ERNESTINEZS' in love! MOTHER'S return causes 4'.w'iIclm-lt! S9 CHEERLE DERS BUILD SPIRIT First Raw: M. Truesdale, G.

JU IOR HIGH The junior high cheerleaders, composed of seven, eighth and ninth grade girls, gave much of their time and effort to raise the school spirit of the junior high. In addition to cheering at every home game, they ar- ranged three junior high student buses to support their away football games. Taking part in the pep rallies by leading cheers and selling programs for varsity football and basketball games were the main activities performed by the group. The money acquired by selling programs was put into the cheerleading fund, which is used for the purchasing of new uniforms, sweaters, and letters. I New uniforms, purchased this year, gave the girls a greater incentive to do their best while cheering their team on to victory.

With Vicki Ball as editor and Diane Marburger as assistant editor, much time and effort was spent in meet- ing their deadlines. Phyllis Lapinski was responsible for the artwork which appeared in the newspaper. This year the staff of the Junior High Lo-Down had no budget to meet, everything was taken care of by the school. The paper contained a running article on the compari- son of large and small schools, the pro and con side of each editorial which appeared, and news on all school activities, In one article a schedule of when school projects were due appeared. The Lo-Down appeared from time to time with the Planet Dust in the local weekly paper, the Butler County News-Record. Members on the stall' of the Lo-Down interviewed Robert Simmons, the new Junior High Guidance counseler to get all the ideas on this new separate Junior High School program. They also informed us of the class and homeroom oihcers of the Junior High classes and the projects which they have proposed to help students become better acquainted. :,.,-0. 1 'fa it ' C' f ,G xx fs 'mfr i rf!- r an-GST-'ik gs.

Equipment, which the hfteen junior and senior boys must learn to operate and repair, consists of tape recorders, record players, projectors, and television sets. Two unique pieces of equipment added this year are the overhead projector and the daylight viewer. The overhead projector is used to show pictures and charts on a movie screen. By using the daylight viewer, a teacher may present educational movies in a lighted classroom. To reserve these aids, teachers must notify the sponsors, Mr. Henicheck or Mr. Iman.

The first featured the women's faculty and girl's varsity team, while the men's faculty challenged the varsity team for the second game. The experience of the faculty overpowered the varsity as the teachers won 70 - 61. Membership in the club is composed of those boys who have eamed a varsity letter. For the first time in the history of Mars High, a letter can now be earned in a third sport-golf. Although there are seven students who have lettered in two sportsg junior Steve Leone and senior, Tom Purvis seem to be the only likely candidates to letter in all three areas. On January 11 the boys cauvassed the surrounding area selling doughnuts. The profit from this sale enabled the club to purchase letters, sweaters, and jackets for the members. Athletic director and club sponsor, Arno Thompson, has contributed much to aid these boys and raise the school spirit throughout the year. Ritchey, J. Starr. F. Relihan, S. Leone, D.
