'W' A Yeor Book Published By The Senior Class In The Year Nineteen Forty-Two THE H1G HW5 McHooL MINERSVE-IiLE, PE111N SY LVAN1A two Foreword ..... ln these days of war, editing and publishing a year book seems, indeed, a trivial matter. The Class of '42, however, feels that the record should be continued to be perused again, perhaps in a bright- er, happier day. We offer this Eleusinia, then, as another chapter. This is the record of aur four years not different in most ways from those of other class- es, having for us the charm of intimate and indi- vidual accomplishment. We hope that you the readers, and the world, will like it-and usl Theme ..... We have followed in this year's Eleusinia no con- ventional theme. Instead we have tried in some measure to make our book memorial to the one to whom it is dedicated: Mr. Roudabush. There have been some slight curtailmentsg indeed, we are fortunate in this year of shortages and ra- tions to have a yearbook at alll But it is a year that has also blossomed with slogans, belligerent or in- spiring. We have kept in step by giving to most senior portraits the words of some well known ad- vertising slogan. After all, these are the products of another mighty inportant war industry-Amer? can education! In Dedication to the Memory of CHARLES HDVVRBD HOUDIXBUSU Supl. Min'-rsvill-1 Scluvol 25i:3il'ic'l 1915 V341 throc i . four DEDICATORY NOTE He Was a happy Warrior and a real friend to de- serving youth, and We miss his familiar figure in office, corridor, and class-room. We keep remem- bering him. He knew the first spring birds and the Ways of trout in spring streams. He had a way of getting deserving seniors into the colleges they wanted to go to, at prices they could pay. It was a special gift of perseverance. I-Ie had an instinc- tive love of truth and duty. He liked Wood-working and his coin collection and Southern chivalry. His word was his bond and carried authority. Wher- ever he Went in life: strength of purpose Went with him. He liked dogs and hunting tales. He liked especially the season and the spirit that is Christ- mas. With a granite integrity and a steady devo- tion he led the educational effort in Minersville for more than a quarter of a century. He died last sum- mer. The Eleusinia which he directed for years, and which he kept always near in bound editions, mourns his death. It dedicates this volume to him hoping that his memory may he green. ,Li .-. 1i As We Remember Him -K ll' Ill Ill ill Fl!

Mary, first up on the roll call, seems to be the last one in line when ieet and inches were being handed out. Her lack ot height is balanced by her pleasing dis- position and smiling countenance. Mary has done well in her commercial subjects. She inclines toward music as shown by her participation in the glee club and orchestra. Mary has many friends, but her special friend is letta. Angel is sott-spoken, but this will in no way impede her undertakings in the future. Your classmates of '42 wish you the best of luck, Mary. lwm-my-four IAMES ANTONIO Student Council 125, Operetta 115 12D 135 14j, Glee Club 1lj 122 131 143, Band 1U 12, 132 143, Assembly Program 115 121 13j 1110, Special Program 14J, Date Committee 14j.

L. C. Club An introduction to Ed would be like taking coals to New Castle, for everybody is acquainted with Whitey and his ei- iervescent spirit. Like most talented peo- ple he isn't fully appreciated in his home town. His humor in the class room is usually passed off with the remark no bearing on the subject -much to the studentsf disappointment. His tricky questions are something to dodge. Ed's interests are varied. He has been active in football, track and basketball. Acting serious or otherwise, is his spec- ialty. When members of the cast fail to appear for practice, Ed becomes the cast -boy or girl. It nothing else works, we're sure that Ed's singing with his gang will help him to keep that smile. twenty-five v WILLIAM A. BENDOKAS LEONA A. BLUGIS Glee Club 131, Band flj Q21 130, Special Program I Get More Out of Lite o Above you see the likeness of William. Look and you can see the flicker of cz slow, shy smile. Willie is always ready to hand out a smile. His quiet attitude in school is overshadowed by his activities cutside of school. He is quite an ice-skating fiend and hardly ever misses a basket-ball game. He has a bright and cheerful outfit in health class. This has always been the envy ot the boys. Willie can always be sure of his suc- cess into the uncertain future because ot his policy of talk less and think more. twenty-six Assembly Program QZD QSD, Special Committee Q32 OD. I Smile of Candlelight Leona is the calm and aloof member of our class. When she gets into POD all this changes and her Lithuanian temper is given some exercise. Leona is a good commercial student and likes chemistry. She is somewhat in- terested in sports, i. e. football. We do not know her secret ambitions or desires since she is a sort oi reserved type of girl. Whatever her ambitions are, victory is hers. We cannot think of Victory without the Do you blame us? ANDREW BOBELLA Operetta QED, Baseball Manager QU, Card Party Committee Qllj, Assembly Program Q3J, Eurydice Glee Club Q3j. Andy is one of our most singular stu- dents. He is very energetic and enliven- ing. His imitations of the juice box amaze us. You can identity Andy with- out seeing him by his hyena-like laugh. Doc is greatly interested in the med' ical tield. His sudden outburst of medical terms throws us back on our heels. He has spent some of his time in the Pottsville Hospital and has even had a taste of the Defense Program by working in an arsenal. All in all Andy is a studious boy and we all wish him the best of luck in his pursuit of happiness. CONCETTA A. BORRELLI o Assembly Program QZD, Special Pro- gram Q4J, Baccalaureate Choir Q31 Special Committee QM. Red hair, blue eyes and freckles are the outstanding features of this soitvspok- cn, diminutive lass. She is quiet among the presence of strangers but really a talkative person among her friends. Ietta is an ardent supporter of high school plays, card parties and football games, whereto she is accompanied by leer friend, Mary, Her quaint way of re- marking: Oh, you-', and her becoming blush are frequently heard and seen. We wish her the best of luck and we hope her small stature will not hinder her climb up the ladder of success. twi-iity-scvvii GUY O. BRENTARI Baseball ian par-excellence-that's Guy Brentari. We know we can always find Guy at the ball park during the summer. A member oi the Delaware Avenue gang, Guy used to play softball at the Ice Plant. Many are the softballs you hit on the roof-eh, Guy? Very fond of music, Guy oiten spends his evening listening to the radio. The possessor oi a much admired shock of curly hair, we'd like Guy to shock us a little with his secret. twenty-eight ANNA A. BROWN I Glee Club QU, Usher MD, Special Committee f3j. She doesn't giggle, she doesn't laugh. Anna's joy is expressed by a hearty chuc- le, and this means of expression is one of the most contagious we know. Anna is a happy-go-lucky girl and never seems to be blue. Brownie is an ardent supporter of the Iive, and she and her sister know every- thing that happens there. Ann is the mad scientist oi chemistry class: an unusual position for a girl ,you will agree. Anna would work on her experiments the clay before, then would come into class and surprise everyone by her superior knowledge. CHESTER A. BUGLIA Band Member 142, Special Program MD, Assembly Program QU, Special Committee HJ. - Caesare August Buglia is this Latin 1ad's true name, and it signifies much about him, Chester is a traveler and came from Cass High School during his junior year. He also travels to Saint Clair quite often. No, don't get us wrong. Chester doesn't have a girl friend there, he has many. Chester's long eyelashes are the envy of almost every girl and he, along with Mike DeMarco and Guido Celani, all prove the theory that he boys always get the curly hair. Chester caused quite a fur- or this year by raising 'jest en little mustache. l GUIDO E. CELANI Chess Club Q3J, Orchestra Qlj Q21 Q33 C41 Bflfld UD C25 C33 UU.

However Miss Weimer, does not grow alarmed for she has grown accustomed to Zip's vocalizing in higher math. Guido also roars in P.O.D. where he is constantly at war with the capitalists. In tact, Guido's best friends wonder it he ever quits talking. However, we do not know that he keeps quiet on the occasion oi playing his accordion. He is remarkably adept at playing this instrument and has played over several radio networks. Every' story has two sides and Gu1do'll take the op- posite one. twenty-nine 1 ROSE M. CONSUGAR Assembly CZQ Rose seems to believe in the adage Students should be seen and not heard . Because ot her reticence, ,she seems to stay in the hackground of the class. We don't mean to imply that Rose is not an active member of the class. She is. We wonder if she is particularly inter- ested in POD because she is more active in that class than in any other. Rose's favorite outside activity seems to be dancing. She visits many of the popular dancing spots and is often seen at the Globe Hall. Rose spends much ot her time in Prim- rose. We wonder if she is attracted to the town or the people. thirty ARMOND A, DALESSANDRO Basketball CZJ, Flag Bearer 143, Stage I-land UU, Special Committee Q31 OD. C America's Fines! Racket Arrnonot! Take your seat! A lew seconds later we see Armond walking to his seat. He has a passion for visiting people and holding conversations. Seta has caused many a racket by his comical wise-cracks, and there is nev- er a dull moment in Room l when he is around. Seton had a hard time keeping awake ir- P.O.D. class. One day he actually fell asleepg lout that was remedied by ques- tions being tired right and left at him. Seto works in a shoe-shop during vacations and spends his spare time lat the Greecian Bowl. As you go through life we hope you will mend your way to a shining prosperity. ETHEL DAVIS Special Program 135, Glee Club 135, Assembly Program 115 125. Ethel is proving to be a woman of mys- tery until the complicated espionage sys- tem of MHS went to work. Ethel crochets. and makes beautiful edgings for hand- lnerchiefs. Another hobby is playing the piano, which we are told she does beauti- fully. Although she lives on New Castle street, we find she prefers 'dusty roads and this preference shows in the diamond she wears on the third finger of her left hand. Ethel plans to middle-aisle it soon after she is graduated. Here is one mem- ber of the class who does not plan to be- come a career girl despite ber commercial work in school. t MICHAEL R.

The Game Everyone Is Talking About Mike, the fast, swash-buckling-bucking end of our squad has proved his athletic skill numerous times this past season. The grid-iron fans will ne'er forget Mike and his many achievements. Michael was once class president and president of the A. A. which proves his popularity with both sexes. We won- der if his dark, wavy hair hasn't been an attraction to the fairer sex? Mike always appears to be in good spirits. He is willing, able and proves himself a good sport. Mike likes to listen to music. We can bet when he hears Rudy Vallee sing, My Time ls Your Time , his is really Mary'.' thirty-one l ROSE M. DEVERS o Eleusinia Staff 141, Special Commit- tee Q31 HD. If names mean anything, Rose was most appropriately named, for she was well-blessed with a flower-like complex- ion. Though Rose possesses a host of friends she is most often found in Betty's com- pany. Rose is extremely fond of arguing in P. O. D. Class and more often than not she wins her point. A very good dancer, Rose may often be found at the Globe. Rose intends to be an accountant. May success and happiness be the password to your future life. thirty-two ROBERT DIPPEL o Card Party Committee UD. Hello-Oh you want to know some- thing about Robert Dipple? Well, so do quite a few people in M,H.S. Of course, we can tell you some of the obvious facts if you like. He's tall, and rather thin, and has sort of light brown hair. He used to go up to Buck Run quite a bit-but we haven't heard much about this activity lately. He didn't talk very much in his classes, but when he sat down in Study Hall!

When it comes to P.O.D. and rhetoricals you can always expect David to bring out a new angle. He is a loyal student, attending all so- cial activities and quite willing to help.

She is also a very serious person. ln the class-room she always appears to be absorbed in thought. We are sure that very often Helen would like to volunteer to express her opinion in class, but she usually hes- itates. Perhaps she is a weed bit shy. How- ever we don't mean to imply that Helen is always solemn. She believes that there's a time and place for everything. When she is with her friends after school, she is as jolly as anyone. She likes to dance and can often be seen at the Globe Hall. MADELINE A. PARULIS Eleusinia Staff HQ, Assembly Pro- gram CSD Url, Prom Committee QSQ, Card Party Committee 141.

Another one of Madeline's hobbies is cxnllecting different pins. Of late, Mam's hobby has taken a turn towards the patriotic, what with her Defend America pin and her squadron of miniature planes.

May it bring much joy to us all in years to come, to return to these pages. 1. October 1, the beginning ot an eventful year, after an exceptionally long vacation. 2, As our class officers we chose: President ........... .... . ,... I ack Thompson Vice President ,... .,...... R obert Duffy Secretary ...... ..... E sther Peckman Treasurer .........,......................,.... Leonard Patinsky 3. We cheered such members of the squad as: Albert Direnzo, Victor Leipire, Stanley Michalski, Edward Grassa, Louis Schneider, Ioseph Tarantino, Dominic Dorazio, lack Thompson, Hugho Subrine, Vincent Valibus, Iohn Letko and Donald McCready. 4. The declaration of war brought out the patriotism in us. When airplane spot- ters were needed, the Iuniors were Iohnnie on the spot. 5. We were represented on the basketball court by Edward. Grassa, Stanley Michalski, Henry Lutz, Dan Petrick, Iack Toric and Chester Acaley. 6. Remember the fun we had at the socials? 7. We tried to uphold our motto: Labor Disgraces No Man. Those who suc- ceeded in being honor roll students for the first three periods were: Adele Bracey, Robert Brady, Laura Maurer, Adele Rosser, Earle Smith, Frances Yannacone, Ele- anor Kareskie, Doris Schneider, Eleanor Simikitis, Ruth Strincosky and Ieannette Zielasko. 8. We waded, knee deep, into midterms, and found that some of us hadn't quenched our thirst at the Fountain ot Knowledge. 9. Elva Mitchell turned Irish on us with her presentation of Mrs. O'Too1e's Valentine. Begorra it was tops. 10. We boasted such stars as: Adele Bracey, Grant Price, Betty Rokosz, Gerald Coady and Anna Kulchinsky in the operetta, The Gypsy Rover. 12, The army demanded some of our teachers, Say, what does the army have that we haven't got? 13. Max Gabardi and Tom Katroches never sang, Rain, rain, go away-1 for it meant time out to bring in the flag. 14. Ah, spring! Now we have a good excuse for day-dreaming. 15. The Prom, as usual, proved our bone of contention. To be or not to be, that was the question. Advanced one more step in the direction of our goal, we sincerely hope that those who follow may have all the pleasures we have known. And as the curtain falls again on another year we take a step upward on the ladder to success. eighty-two SOPHOMORES It is cr Vitol necessity thot every' young person should direct his en- ergy, thought, cmd hopes toward Cx definite good.

The honor roll was published every six-week period and the Sophomore Class was always well represented. 5. Neil Kosh and Donald Seitzinger were on the jury at the murder trial oi Bjon Falkner, 6, Some of those history exams really were long, 7. Among the Sophomore boys who ably participated on the basketball court were Robert Schenck, Clay Williams, Iames Kline, Billy lack, Iames DeMarco, Louis DelDuco, Ioe Felsburg and Ioe Frank. 8. Sylvia Wedro, when asked to conjugate sum in the perfect tenses: Do you mean that iooey stuff? 9, Mr. Elberti's rhetorical class certainly tried to keep the audience from be- coming bored. 1U, We really did miss those socials that were sponsored by the A. A. last year, ll, Here is an example of Sophomore wit overheard on the campus: Many a romance has its beginning in the ice cream parlor, for bright is the flame that leeds on the coke. 12.

Fourteen girls are chosen, one acting as captain, This year, the cap- tain was Elizabeth Smith. Before the people arrive, the girls gather in Room l to adjust their caps and arm bands, which are a distinguishing feature of the usher, All the girls are com- panionable and a lot of fun is had among them, The evening arrives when they perform their first duties. They are a little uncer- tain of themselves, but being busily engaged in their duties, their iears are for- gotten, The girls are divided into two groups by the captain. One group distributes the programs, and the other group does active ushering Their duties include: di- recting people to their seats, answering questions relative to the performance, finding friends for late-comets, and a few other minor duties, Each girl does her best not to fail in the work entrusted to her. They usher again at the Baccalaureate exercises, Their duties are performed with more ease, and they then have had enough experience to usher for the Senior High School Class and Commencement exercises, On these occasions the girls wear evening gowns. As a reward for their work, they enjoy the evening performance. The following girls, under the supervision of Miss Glenwright, served as ushers for the l94l-42 school termi Elizabeth Smith, Captain, Anna Brown, Bette Dukment, Marie Felsburg, Rose Hanes, Mary Agnes McSurdy, Iosephine Mahal, Margaret Murphy, Helen Oplansky, Arlean Radzievich, Ethel Schofstal, Mary Slavickas, Irene Sowinski, Louryn Weimer. ninety-five Library Assistants By Olga Stefnavage The library is a constant source of information, It is used at some time or other by every student in the high school, This year many new books have been added to our library, including fiction and non-fiction. Magazines and pamphlets of all kinds may be found for the students' pleasure and Work. A group of library assistants, volunteer girls, consisting of Freshmen, Sopho- mores, Iuniors and Seniors, help Miss Berger along with the tasks of the library. Each girl has a certain period to report in the library once a Week. It is the as- sistant's duty to help his fellow students Cespecially Freshmenl in finding books. The assistants have many other duties, such as taking care of the reading shelves, attending to the mail, stamping books, filing and mending books. There are also girls reporting before and after school who stamp outgoing books and check and return the incoming books to their proper places. Although the girls sacrifice some time in helping Miss Berger, they find a great deal of pleasure in doing their Work. Among the girls who helped Miss Berger this year were: Helen Hantzes, Betty Dauberman, Dora Leonard, Eleanor Lacatsky, Frances Yannecone, Ruth Strin- coskie, Rita Wallacavage, Ruth Frazer, Mildred Kordish, Esther Peckman, Olga Stefnavage. ninety-six The Blue and White By Clara Mitchell This ii: the student newspaper of the Minersvillzf Hiah School lt is run bv the students under the direction of Mrs, Paul lohnston and printed by the Free Press Office, The White and Blue rrrade a late appearance this yeare it dldn'1 show up until Christmas, but :since then has appeared every six weeks. The paper as it is run today was founded in 1938 by a number of bays under the supervision of Mr lolrn A Duffy, The paper was most unsuccessful that year but since then, has never been in debt. ln Tune, 1941, Mr. Duffy was drafted into the U. S. Army and his post as face ulty advisor was capably filled by Mrs, lohnsion, formerly Miss Alma Ludwig The staff of reporters grew with the papers success until rn the fall of 1941 there were approximately seventy members, Most of these members were inert, so drastic measures were taken, A test was given to the reporters and the staff waz: reduced to one third of its original size Another change in the setup of the White and Blue was the use of tr cheaper grade of paper, The income of the White and Blue was not sufficient in cover the increased cost of the heavy coated stock on which MHS news had been printed, so the lighter newspaper was introduced. There were a number of innovations among the editorial staff this year The editor, Claret Mitchell, was the first girl editor-in-chief in the present setup and Francis Quinn as sports editor and Gerald Coady as one of the lausiness rnanagerfr have been the first luniors elected to the editorial staff. This years White and Blue wishes next years staff the best of luck through all of their troubles and trinrnphs, The staff of the 1941-42 paper was as follows: Editor-in-Chief .... .... . . . . ....,..,. . . . , . .Clara Mitchell Feature Editor .,,. . . . . . . . .

I uint-tg -si-vm-ri Cheerleaders Students-Let's Cheer By Dolores Fern Football season rolls around and the cheering squad limber up their timbers and swing into action. With two new members, a Sophomore and a Freshman, our squad began their practices, New cheers, motions and ideas were put into use with inspiring zeal, Practice followed practice, then, the first game finally arrived. Amongst the cheers ot the crowd--the lively strains ot martial music, in a brilliant flood-lighted stadium, the cheering squad take over, They encourage the student body to cheer, not to mind a dislocated tonsil or a cracked rib, but just cheerl The result was usually one big uproar. This is the spirit that tends to make students participate in sports and sports continue to live. The pep meetings were also placed under the supervision of the squad. The numerous sketches presented were accepted with much delight by the students, A little later in the season a bit of dash was added to the dress of the cheer- leaders, The squad shed their navy and white slack uniforms for those of royal and white with swishing skirts, These proved to be quite an asset to the pomp of the game. Under the excellent direction of Mr. l. I, Purchell the squad receives many a novel idea and kind advice. Those who represent this season's squad include: Captain, Dolores Ferns, Mary Agnes McSurdy, Margaret Murphy, Florence Rosser, Beatrice Bluis and Kay Kline. ninety-eight Stagehands By Edward Batutis Before I begin this miniature biography of Our Life Backstage, I would like to introduce to you the stagehands by nicknames only. First of all and, indeed, first in weight 132 pounds overweightl Big Stoop Milton g second, in height only, Whitey Butts 5 next, but first in probaxius, Seto. Now I give to you the under- trod lunior stagehands, First in wittiness, Little Max , secondly and almost as witty, Vern 5 and last but not least Tom Kat. Due to the fact that Mr. Saylor has left and due to the same fact that Mr. Zalewskie and Mr. Vogel have left, we were left without any Stage Director, This did not impair us in any way as we always had the stage ready for every program. Backstage is our Paradise, the only place in the whole high school where we could relax and be ourselves. Were your ears ever bombarded by guffaws of laughter and rumbling and sliding noises while you sat in music class? They were? That was the stagehands at work. We know every corner, crack, crook and cranny on that stage and if you ever lost a hatbox there, we'd find it. Our Senior life has been a stage and we fellows but the stagehands on it. We will never forget the laughs we had backstage, The stage will always be part of us, including the sweat which has been absorbed by the floorboards as it rolled off our foreheads. ninety-niiu. Orchestra By Carmela Nicola, '42 Toward Better Things in Music is the theme piece of the Minersville High School Orchestra, Time and money are never wasted when a student becomes a member of the orchestra. Under the capable direction of Mr. Anthony Tremitiere, the orchestra has played music not only written for high school orchestras, but also, music Written by well-known masters for professional orchestras. Rehearsal periods provide not only a time lor the study of music, but also a period for recreation and the useful application of leisure time. This year's district orchestra held at Slatington found the following musicians from Minersville attending: violin, Chester Acaley and lack Torick: flute, Louis Del Duco. Chester Acaley also attended the All-State Orchestra at Reading. Seniors leaving the orchestra are replaced by underclassmen.

This year the Glee Clubs have been rehearsing for special programs constantly, At Christmas time they co- operated with the Senior class in presenting the Christrnars play, They also gave short concerts for the high school audience, The high light of the year was the operetta, This year it was The Gypsy Rover, Although the rehearsals were long and tiresome, and often discouraging, the finished product was certainly a great success. The Eurydice Glee Club has taken one step further this year and has elected officers, This election was held in October. The following members were elected: President ,... , . Vice President . . .

The Eurydice and Sophomore-Freshman Glee Clubs combine their efforts and present a spring concert each year, This year in addition to the customary presentations, the Glee Clubs have lur- nished music at the defense rallies.

ATHLETICS Character should be the out- growth of every school activity. Charles E. Rouaabush You and Your Schools Head Coach Elberti Football By Herman Schenclc Football has always been a major sport at Miners- ville High and eaih year the squad puts all it has into the game to make their year a little better than the preceding one But with the comparatively small en! rollment of our school we cannot always have a good teams There must be years oi building up in order to produce one good year, This year was one oi those building years. Although at the beginning ot the year we all started out with high hopes and grim determination we had to aban- don some of our plans and substitute more freely in order to give more men experience, Although some ot the boys Who had to make certain sacrifices are lost by graduation, before the good year comes, they are proud to have helped build such a learn, Coach Elberti takes a lot cause of these circumstances but the squad is always behind him Willing to assist in every possible way, The squad really got to know the trends and hardships oi a ioothall coach and they tried all the harder to produce for him. An example of Coach Elbertis coaching ability was shown in the annual All Star Game, Coach Elberti was chosen coach of the South-of-the-Mountain team. His team clinched the exciting game 14 to 13, which shows that he can beat the best of teams ii he is given the material of unfair criticism be- Asst, Coach Sincavage Asst- Couch Valibus hundred twelve Coach Elherti graduated from Middletown High School in 1923 and from Leba- non Valley College in l928 He was ably assisted by coaches Mr, Albert l Sin- cavage graduate ot MHS in l928 and Lebanon Valley College in 1935 and M' Daniel Valibus, a graduate ol MHS in l926 and ot Mt, St. Mary':s in 1931. Mr, Valibus and Mr. Sincavage really Worked hard in helping correct indie vidual mistakes and handling the IV.'s in line style, Mr, Boran athletic director, handled the equipment end ol it and also gave drills and calisthonics to help get the squad into shape, The squad appreciated his fine handling ol sprained ankles and bum knees. llllllIll't'1l lliirtm-n With a minimum of experience our squad started train- ing at Camp Chicagami at Deer Lake. There began a vigorous training program under the supervision of coaches and athletic director. After five of the scheduled six days of intensive calisthenics, fundamentals and scrimmage, camp was broken up by order of the Health Department in an effort to check the spreading infantile paralysis epidemic. After a layoff of a number of weeks we were back to- gether again at the stadium, Our first three games were canceled and one was postponed until later in the season. So on the night of October 10, after two short weeks of practice, Coach Elberti picked his starting lineup. Scoring two touchdowns and one extra point Mahanoy De Marco City held on to its lead and won the game 13-0. Although our line was a bit ragged our backfield performed admirably, making good gains with little blocking. Sporting a strong defense and hard-running backs, Ashland High invaded the Memorial Stadium. After being held scoreless in the first half they netted two touchdowns and added an extra point to take the game 13 to 0. We traveled to Coal Township for our next game with the Purple Larksf' After threatening the whole first quarter we scored six points in the second. All during the first half we were gaining consistently by the overpowering line smashes of Dominick Doraziog however, he was injured in the beginning of the second half and had to leave the game. After that the Townshippers threatened dangerously until, upon the instruction of our coaches we scored a deliberate safety thereby wasting enough time to end the game. It was our first victory, 6 to 2 The following week we traveled to Kulpmont to play the highly praised Kulpmont Wildcats. Even though Kulpmont scored a touchdown in the first half and added another six-pointer in the second half plus an extra point, it was a hard-fought con- test all the way. We threatened constantly on a team that up until then had not been scored upon. Our line played an excellent defensive game stop- ping their exceptionally dangerous end runs while the backfield had their passes well covered. Valibus hundred fourteen Next we played the Red Tornadoes of Mt. Carmel W at home. Mt. Carmel got off to a flying start and col- lected two fast touchdowns before we could get started. ln the second quarter and the whole third the Battlin' Miners opened up a brilliant passing attack and finally pushed a touchdown over in the third pe- riod. MHS suddenly bogged down again and the Tor- nadoes again hit their stride and collected 13 more points in the final period making the score Z5 to 6, a victory for Mt. Carmel. Shenandoah was the next team to invade the Memorial Stadium, With a dazzling array of plays which later helped them to win the sectional cham- pionship they piled up a 35-6 victory. Although we were beaten by such a large score we were the first team to score on them through the line. The following Saturday we took on Saint Clair on our home field and we took a very decisive victory 14 to 0. Ed Grassa, a fast back, skirted the ends for both touchdowns. For our Turkey Day classic we played host to a l highly favored Blythe Township team. After only two 1 H . plays our two mainstays in the backfield, Dorazio and Lepiere, had to leave the game because of leg injuries. Schenck All during the game it was nip and tuck. Near the end of the first half Blythe pushed over the only touchdown of the day by a reverse pass down the center. Although we tried desperately in the second half we could not score. One of the hgh lights of the game was a quick-kick by Ed Grassa which travelled 70 yards. After the game the following Seniors took off their suits for the last time: Alex Valibus, Herman Schenck, Mike DeMarco, lack George, Ed Batutis and Robert Iocken, After the regular season was over Alex Valibus, Herman Schenck, Mike DeMarco and lack George were chosen to play in the Dream Game on the South-of-the-Mountain team. All through this excit- ing game Alex Valibus stood out with his excellent defensive playing. All the lettermen automatically become members of the Football Lettermen's Club, a young but ac- tive organization. Each year it sponsors novelty games and dances with which to raise sufficient funds to award the lettermen. This past year it gave sweaters and jackets, It is run by the lettermen under the supervision of the coaches. With an experienced backfield and a promising line the boys are looking forward to next season when they can get back into the harness again. With a George . , crop of young boys such as Grassa, Subrine, Lepiere, l , All Dorazio, Tarantino and many others next year's team l should give a good account of itself.

Mgr. Martz liunclreml fiftt-1-ii Varsity Basketball By Edward Batutis This season marked the entrance oi MHS into a new league called the Central Schuylkill League. Our competitors were Cressona, Schuylkill Haven and Orwigsburg. The race lor the title of this league was a very close one. Unfortunately our team had their off nights and the night we played Schuylkill Haven was one of them, For we not only lost the game but We also lost the chance for the title, which had been consequently taken by Orwigsburg. Our team, under Coach Balitas, was at its best a well organized, sure shoot- ing and a speedy group ol boys. The forwards, Stanley Michalski, Clay Williams, lack Murphy, lack Torick and Dan Petrick, were capable of playing their positions well. The centers, Herm Schenck and Henry Lutz, were cool and accomplished players, Lastly the guards, Dorazio, Grassa and Kline, were the excellent dribblers and passers. As for next year, Herman Schenck is the only Senior lost through graduation and we can count on a team of veterans who won't and can't be beat!

Hampered by the loss of last year's sensational team which had advanced to being the Varsity, Coach Balitas waz: faced with the task of molding together an entirely new squad of I. V. men. On the first day of practice Coach Balitas was presented with a wealth of ma' terial. Most of the players had come from the 1940 Championship Iunior High School basketball team. Constant drilling gradually corrected most of the faults, A new method of defense was taught to them, During the season the boys gradually improved. Finally at the end of the sea- son they Were one of the top I, V, teams in Schuylkill County within their class. The team won eleven games and lost ten. The players are: Chester Acaley, Vincent Letko, Robert Schofstal, lames De- Marco, Louis De-lDuco, Bill lack, Robert Schenck, Fred Schenck, loseph Beicher, Bill Ulmer, Robert Felsburg, Ioe Brady, Ioseph Frank, Iay Williams, Ernest Player.

Our intra-mural basketball teams gained in popularity and a girl's team emerged. The girl's teams played several games with outside schools, but most of the games were played between the different classes. Unlike the boys' intra-mural teams, they called themselves Iunior and Senior girls. The boys' teams presented us with some thrilling games, The teams also picked up some funny names. Such names as Feather Merchants, Wee Five, Vogaliers, Wrestlers, Bears, etc., appeared on the daily bulletin. The Wee Five won the championship. Piloted by Ed Grassa they won 3, lost O. Other members of the five were Lutz, Thompson, Bashore and Eiler. The club running second was the Bears under the skillful mcmaqemenf of Her- man Schenck. They won 2 and lost 1.
