Munhall High School - Munhisko Yearbook (Munhall, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 44 of the 1927 volume:

ALMA MATER ’Mid the hills of Pennsylvania, At the gateway of the West, Stands our dear old Munhall High School, Loved by all of us the best. (rathered round her stately portals. Sweetest memories ever cling, Of the days when dear old Munhall Sheltered us beneath her wing. Old Munhall, dear old Munhall, Often we have heard thy praise; Often cheered with waving banners, In our dear old Munhall days. Still we love thee, dear old Munhall, We, the loyal sons and true, Here’s a cheer and then another, Dear old Munhall here’s to you. TIIK MUNIIISKO O THE READER: In criticising this book, dear reader, do not be too harsh. This book, the final edition of the Munhisko, does not represent the Annual which is customary for the Senior Class to publish, but it represents the humble results, and earnest labors of a few. Therefore, we, as a Senior Class, present this book to our readers. May its purpose be fulfilled.

Au revoir. There is a time-honored swimming hole in the German district of St. Louis and the wise-crackers call it the Old Dutch Cleanser.” I am feeling mighty happy, Don’t you? How I love the early springtime, Don’t you? When the grass makes green the sod, And the buds are in the pod, I just feel like praising God, Don’t you? 1 love to see the birds come back, Don’t you? And the leaves bedeck the trees, Don’t you? Then the cool and gentle rain, Brings us flowers along the lane, Fell like praising God again. Don’t you? S. M. G„ ’27.

Many students whose ability was unknown blossomed forth as stars of the first magnitude. From the Freshmen were found the students whose talents are going to keep the high school supplied with actors and actresses. The first home room program was put on by the Senior Report Room 17. which entertained with a radio program. Station WHOA was the broadcasting point, situated in the darkest realms in Horseyville, Idaho. Joseph Guiney, the silver throated announcer, was in charge of the program and what a sweet mess he made of it. The S. O. S. Poneys from Horseyville agonized long enough to render two dance numbers. The Checker-Slovakina Chorus was scheduled to entertain with two heart-rendering numbers, but they lost their checkers. When static interfered the station had to s’gn off to quit bothering the listeners-in. On November 19, Room IS gave a musical program, so the program said, but the Assembly Critic deemed otherwise. And the Mysterious Three—dunt esk. They weren’t so bad. Time Hies, so we must leave this end of the report. On December 3. Room 22 presented a program consisting of a few piano solos by Margaret Natcher and Mary Russell. After digesting these, a play called “Uncle Dick’s Mistake.” The acting was scrumptious with Charles Richey, William X. Schwartz, Ellen O’Neil, Madeline Waldmen. and John Vines taking the leading roles. Again and again on every Friday each room would put on its program and receive the applause or knocks, mostly knocks. Room 14 gave us something novel by producing the scientific wonders of the next generation. Some ambitious sophomore must have read the Popular Science Monthly. Late in December Mister Stone showed a picture of Washington for which place the Seniors are leaving on May 30, if they raise enough money. The Washington picture was instructive and entertaining. Again came Room 13 with a play with which they became famous, for besides giving at Assembly they gave it before a monster audience at the Carnegie Library. This play. Booth Tark-ington’s “The Trysting Place,” was produced with fine style. The cast included John Sofonce Speidel, Michael Angelo Timko, R. Elizabeth Price and others too numerous to mention. Miss Guiney’s room gave a novel court scene taken from the “Virginia Judge.” High class vaudeville acts were brought from Pittsburgh, namely. Art Laundry’s Orchestra, Barnsinsky and Coplinsky, cornetists of great renown, Trudy and Nurmi combination, alias Luretta Bowers and Owen Glass. Sam Click, the naturalized Roumanian, made his initial debut to Munhall audiences. Sam played the traps. At last we come to the verdant frosh who play within the high school grounds. Their prestige was upheld by Room 21, who entertained with a one act play called “At Seven Sharp.” The Freshmen came off with flying colors with Robert Kistler proving himself somewhat of an actor. His interpretation of an English butler was above criticism. Later in the year Rooms 22. 23, 24, and 5 gave commendable programs which proved that the frosh were not to be outdone in the field of dramatics. Thus we have outlined and given a line or two about the various programs held in the high school by the home rooms. Besides the programs given by the pupils, various men and women came in and interested us. In December Rev. Melcher of the Whitaker Methodist Church spoke to us about “Beans.” 11 is talk was very interesting and he was well applauded by the students. Among the other members of the ministerial association we had present with us were the following: Rev. Shade, Rev. Waters. Before we finish the ministers do you remember this, “Can a cat see in the dark ?” Besides the ministers who are always aftei money, we had a few railroad agents who requested that we take a trip to Alaska to remove that worried look from our visage. To strengthen their points they showed pictures of Alaska. We felt the points and the call of the wild, but neither your nor my old man is Rockefeller. During Fire Prevention Week we were favored in having Fire Chief Pfarr speak to us about fire hazards. His tales of the daring exploits of the fire-eaters would make one shiver. The final assembly entertainer of the year was Mr. Lang, of the Dairy Council. He gave his customary talk of how to be beautiful and then as a sideline he drew some pictures of two of the Seniors. Their physiognomes were a disgrace to all the good looking Seniors. The Assembly Critic sign off Cela Suffit THE MUNHISKO TYPEWRITING AWARDS Underwood Co.

Blank. The program was carried out in nautical terms and spring colors of pink and white predominated. On Thursday, 28. at 6:30 p m., the good ship “M unhall , left it moorings with all on board. The number of passengers this year exceeded the number of all other years. Among the distinguished first- class passengers were the Stone and Wherry families, who were ably represented, together with the entire school board and high school faculty. The Steward. Doc Miller, who acted as toastmaster, called the passengers to dinner and a very delicious menu was served. Mr. Stone, the president of the line, entertained the guests with an appropriate movie 'Pile Sea-Going Senior,” through the courtesy of the “Cunard Line. Mr. Toy, the Chief Engineer, stood at his post and steered the ship with an enjoyable speech. Following this number, the boat musician. Michael Timko, rendered a violin solo. The Steward announced the First and Second Mates. Kathryn Watson and Ray Rutter, who gave their “Grumblings”. Miss Guiney, H. Goehring, and Miss Adams, who acted as observing passengers and pilots, gave their views to passengers on board. Purser. Joe Guiney. Assistant Purser, John Hickey, and second Assistant Purser, Irene Busch, acted as donors and gave the let-termen, who were the honored guests, their well earned numerals in Football, Basket-ball, and Girls’ Basket-ball, respectively. More entertainment was followed by selections rendered by Saul Milton Goldman, and this was followed by a forecast by Alex Wallace, the lookout. Captain Wherry concluded the evening voyage with admonitions and off to uncharted seas sailed that good ship M unhall. “WHO KISSED BARBARA” The Dramatic Club successfully presented the play, Who Kissed Barbara,” in the school auditorium. Thursday evening, May 5th. The cast was well chosen and afforded the audience merriment and laughter throughout the play. The proceeds of the play went to help build up the Athletic Injury Fund. “THE MAID AND THE MIDDY” The Musical Department of the Munhall High Scool presented the operetta “The Maid and the Middy” on Friday evening, April 22, in the school auditorium. Miss Ferrell was director and had charge of the music, while Miss Nannah supervised the lines. Miss Adams ably coached the dances. The costumes, which were very elaborate, were made under the direction of Miss Lyle. The play in general was very humorous and the cast was well supported. Much credit is due to Margaret Natcher and the orchestra, who accompanied the cast throughout the course of the play. 8 THE MUNHISKO LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the members of the class of '27 of the Munhall High School, situated in the borough of Munhall, county of Allegheny, state of Pennsylvania, being of sound mind and having deemed that the classes of '28. '29, ’30 and '31 are worthy and deserving, do hereby, on this twenty-fifth day of May. in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, will and bequeath the following: I— To the class of '28 we will and bequeath: 1. The dignified title of “Senior . If. however, after one year the said class of '28 has proved worthy and loyal of this title, it shall then descend to the next class in line, the class of '29. 2. Rooms 17 and 18. together with everything of worthiness and importance that may he contained within. 3. The great privilege of occupying the front seats in assemblies. 4. The cherished hopes of our trip to Washington. D. C. II— To the class of '29 we give and bequeath: 1. Admission to the distinguished society, the “upper classmen. 2. Opportunities to take more active anticipation in the functions of the upper classmen. III— To the class of ’30 we give and bequeath: 1. Admission to the ranks of Soph- omores. 2. A most treasured possession— The Detention Room—on one condition, that is. that the aforementioned room be limited to upper class representatives. 3. The privilege of persecuting the incoming Freshman just as they themselves were persecuted. IV— To the class of ’31 we leave this advice: 1. Respect your elders and take all that is offered to you by the Sophomores, for every dog has his day. 2. Seek knowledge only in books and ask no questions of the upper class-men. for he that asks shall receive Wrong Information. V— To Mr. Walbert: Our love and esteem, and the difficult task of making good men and women of the incoming Seniors. VI— To Miss X'annah : Our hopes that she will have a better Senior class next year. VII— To Miss Guinev: Our incomplete resume and books full of zeros. VIII— To Mr. Hackett: Our hopes that his lab will be more complete, following the year of our departing. IX— To Miss Albright: Our wishes that the Ides of March bring about better Virgil students. Sealed, signed, and sworn to on this twenty-fifth day of May. in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven. Witnesses: Edward Markowitz, Margaret Lamont. P. S.—The class of '28 has the privilege of selling at auction, anything we have overlooked. ________________ CLASS PESSIMIST Isn't it the grand and glorious feeling to think that at last we have ended our four years of hard labor. We thought we were going to be through school at the end of four years and now they tell us that we are just commencing. Well, we are commencing—1 don’t know what but I hope it is something better than what we are quitting. Four long years of hard study and my mind is in a worse muddle than that of any Freshman. Ask any noble Senior to explain the Theorem of Pythagoras, and he will probably tell you it was a speech made by Washington at Gettysburg in 1492. I never saw such a school as this. We work from nine to four then the teachers give us so much night work that we have to sit up so late “burning the midnight oil (this is no banana oil, either) that we can't help being late the next morning, or going to sleep in classes. Then we get bawled for that. Ask Ed. Albrecht; he knows. Then this schoo'i has too many rules and regulations. You aren’t even allowed to chew gum. and the boys aren't even allowed to smoke! Xot allowed to stand in the halls. Not allowed to “hook classes. They give you a vacant period to study in. but they don't stop to consider that you might not be in the habit of studying. Then of course, it’s a crime to amuse yourself in some innocent manner, even if the others are foolish enough to look at you. Another thing, this school has too many steps. Joe Guinev says he wouldn't be late half as many times as he is if he didn't have to climb those front steps. For four long years 1 have tried to gain some weight, but I have come to the conclusion that I first must find a way to slide up those bannisters. Another thing, why do we need so many different studies? Go into Mr. Walbert’s history class and you will find those poor, overworked students gossiping about the inside affairs of Columbus or discussing the foolishness of wasting all that tea in Roston. In the English class and you will find them correcting the works of such men as Shakespeare and Webster. In Miss Austin’s biology class all the great butchers and doctors are trained and get their start. They also discuss why-girls like Florence Rydesky grow up like a tree, but Ethel Gribble and Dot Laird grow sidewards. Then Mr. Hackett teaches his class to talk in surprising ways such as H-O and H2S04. In the auditorium we learn to (Continued on page 11) THE MUNHISKO 9 THE STUDENT COUNCIL ROLL Alex Pentex President Merrill Horner Vice President Donald Zimmerman Secretary Margaret Bertram, William Schwarz, James Redshaw. Dorothy Huffman. Beryl Moore. M iss Blank anti Mr. Goehring,.................... Faculty Advisors This Student Council, elected in November. 1926, has been chiefly en gaged this year in the forming of a new Constitution for the High School. This Constitution was completed in February. It was ratified by the Student Body within a few weeks and was immediately put into effect. This council has been very active and was acclaimed more active than the councils of previous years. 10 THE MUNHISKO SOCIOLOGY TRIPS MUNHISKO STAFF FOR 1927-1928 In education today, one of the cardinal points of the ever increasing program is visual education. Munhall, in keeping abreast of the times, has endeavored to afford to their pupils the best there is to be had. The Sociology Department, under the supervision of Mr. George K. Walbert, has taken four trips to the various institutions this year. They are as follows: Western Pennsylvania Home For the Blind. Western Pensylvania Home For the Deaf and Dumb. Juvenile Court and Criminal Court. All of these institutions are kept up at public expense and are open to the public. Most of the students had never seen the Home for the Blind or the Home for the Deaf and Dumb, although a few may have had experience in the Juvenile Court or the Criminal Court. Every trip was instructive as well as entertaining and Mr. Walbert was well pleased with the results obtained. He hopes to prepare for a better program of trips in Sociology. THE SCHOOL PICNIC On Wednesday morning, the twenty-fifth of May. Munhall High School, will inaugurate its annual school picnic at Kennvwood Park. With many new stunts and numerous 1927 improvements, there will be ample amusement for all. Thrills and chills encountered by joy and laughter are in store for all who attend. There are the rocking-horses in Kiddieland for John Vines. Jean Boot. John Hickey and especially for the Freshman. Steeds, saddles, and stirrups will be sufficiently supplied on the merry-go-round to accommodate the daring Sophomores and Juniors. But for those Seniors who crave for wild and woolly and western atmosphere, Shetland ponies will be provided to meet their demands. The Humane society requests that Elmer Copeland keep off the pony premises. “Windy Stevens will be working at the balloon counter to meet our needs of blown-up balloons and Alex Pentex, who obtained considerable experience at the Senior cafeterias, will be on hand selling hot dogs and pop corn for the Park management. Both at noon and evening, an opportunity will be given those who wish to trip the light fantastic toe, and it behooves some of the Seniors to touch up on their “stepping before the twenty-fifth of May.

The Juniors have appointed several committees and the plans are near completion with the date set for the 19th of May. This event is always looked -forward to with much interest by the Junior Class as weli as the Senior Class. We trust that this occasion will linger in the memories of the departing class for it is at this occasion that the graduating class bids the incoming Seniors best wishes and All Revoir. THE LIBRARY During 1916 a library was established for the use of the Senior High School. In the past two years 433 volumes have been added, making a library of one thousand volumes. This includes the books prescribed by the state for home reading as well as books for research work, and books for spare moments. There are also five sets of Encyclopedias, among them the only set of Nelson’s Loose Leaf in this locality that is kept up to date. Within one block is the Carnegie Library from which this library borrows books whenever the need arises. Next year, instead of being connected with the study hall, the library will be in a separate room that will be fully equipped for library work. A. H. C. H. V.—Have you heard about the strike down at Forbes’ store? G. K.—No, what was the trouble? H. V.—One of the clerks got vaccinated and the rest refused to work with a scab. CLASS PESSIMIST THE MUMIISKO 11 (Continued from page 8) talk with our fingers and how to lie down in about two feet of space. Then another thing about this school that strikes me as ridiculous is grades. Why do the teachers spend so much tune decorating a grade book? Some of them don’t even do that, but trust to their memories and about every six weeks there is “a great wailing and gnashing of teeth.” Another thing, why let people like John Hickey live, he would rather read Vergil than play basket-ball; why let live a person like Isobel Wozniak who has such a sweet disposition that she can get on the good side of all the teachers; and that Dot Laird, the manager of the girls’ basket-ball team, who got so high-hatted when her team won a few games. More good luck than good management. I should think. There are many more in this class who should not be allowed to live, but the long and short of it is—Kitty Watson and Jean Hoot. This is terrible! I’ve been chewing the tops of all my pencils just recalling such th ugs. Education! Bunk! I’ll finish my education in a correspondence school where they don’t even send you a picture of the teachers. And to think I’m just commencing! And just the other day one of those chapel speakers tried to tell us what a great life we are living and how much it means to us every day we attend school. He never went to Munhall, that’s all. Elsie Lacey, '27. “KLUB KLIPPINGS” 'I'lie high school clubs are formed chiefly to create greater interest in various activities as well as developing cooperation and promoting sociability. The clubs of Munhall H'gh School, which have grown in number and enrollment, have been more successful than previous years. The Senior French Club, with many members, has functioned better than previous years. Its members have enjoyed many social gatherings and have proven the club beneficial. Then there is the Dramatic Club, which did not exist the last years or so. This club is a very popular one on account of its large en-rollmen. The members conduct their own meetings and have enjoyed producing a few plays as well as functioning on the social side. The Art Club, with an enrollment of fifteen, is under the supervision of Miss Johnston. The purpose of this club is to cultivate a taste for the finer things in art. Next, we have the Commercial Club, with a large enrollment. The main purpose of this club is to bring about a greater interest in the subjects and problems of the classroom, as well as enjoying social gatherings. 'Phe History Club’s main purpose is to create more interest in current news and associate it with the text material. This is a newly formed club and has done very well in the line of progress. The Girls’ Reserve is another newly formed club. 'Pile Girls’ Reserve are similar in their workings as the Girl Scouts or Camp Fire Girls. This club is one of the most active in the school and we are proud to have an organization as this with us. Keep it up. girls! ALUMNI NOTES The Alumni Association of the Munhall High School, which has been recently formed, is a very active organization and is meeting regularly. The most commendable feature, accomplished as the result of a few meetings, is a plan adopted by the association—to create a fund from which worthy Munhall graduates may borrow to obtain a college education. A special committee was appointed to devise ways and means for collecting the necessary funds. 'Pile first means, which successfully met the approval of the public, was the giving of a three-act comedy. “Only Me”. This play, given by the Tri-Boro Dramatic Club for the benefit of the Alumni Fund, was held in the High School auditorium. March 25th and 28th. On both nights the auditorium was filled, and by the judgment of applause, it was readily seen that the play was a huge success. The Alumni also devised a plan whereby the Seniors could sell tickets for this play at a percentage. 'Phis percentage was to help raise money for the Senior’s trip to Washington.

RIED CRAWFORD I HEAR YOU CALLING A COMPLAINT rilE MUNHISKO 21 (With apologies to Edward Albrecht) Ret ween eight and nine in the morning, When the sun is beginning to rule, Comes a voice so loud and ringing. That is known as the ‘‘call for school.” This voice, I heard it call me To get up. it’s time for the late bell, Rut instead I’d rather rest awhile And reply, “I’m not feeling so well.” Rut as I roll on the other side And, my nap, I try to repeat, Two brawny arms caress my neck. And soon I’m on my feet. Though I go to bed before nine. And seldom attend a party, It seems that the old school-bell Plays a joke, and makes me tardy. And may I warn the Sophs and Fresh, Also, Juniors, your attention; “It’s best to be in school on time Than an ev’ning in the room of Detention.” E. R. M., ’27.

All day long I toil and worry. Get my work done in a hurry. I’m an energetic worker, there’s no doubt; But at night when rest I’m seeking. Comes a voice to me that’s speaking: You will have to go and clean the cellar out.” Now. I’ll make this one assertion, I don't mind the mere exertion That’s connected with the job I have to do; But no matter how I’m slaving, Here’s the thing that sets me raving. There’s another always waiting when I’m through. I have painted, scrubbed and varnished, Polished all the things that tarnished. 1 have washed and dried the dishes one by one; But tlie jobs do not diminish. For no matter what I finish. There’s another always waiting to be done. E. Milton Goldman. ’27. JOKES No Fooling Antonio—My father was the man who invented macaroni. Maria—My, where did he get the idea? Antonio—From the noodle. Doubling Up A teacher of music in a public school was trying to impress upon her pupils the meaning of f and flf in a song that they were to learn. After explaining the first sign, she said, “Now children, if f means forte, what does tf mean?” “Eighty,” shouted one enthusiastic pupil. Giving Presents He—Would you accept a pet monkey? She—Oh. I would have to ask father. This is so sudden. “That’s enough out of you,” replied the cook as she just completed her task of squeezing a large, juicy lemon. 22 THE MUN1IISKO ISOBEL WOZN1AK Breaks District Record Isobel Wozniak. star forward on the varsity sextette, has the honor of leading the Pittsburgh district in the number of field goals scored. She had scored one hundred and nine in the first six games in which she participated. In the Rankin game she scored twenty-three, in the Braddock game she was held to nine, while in the Nor win and Clairton games she scored fourteen in each ; in the Glassport game she scored twenty-three and in the second Rankin game she broke all existing records by scoring twenty-six. This makes a grand total of one hundred and nine in six games or an average of over eighteen field goals per game. Miss Wozniak’s total and average is greater than that of Miss La wry of Allegheny High, whose record of one hundred field goals in seven games averages fourteen field goals per game. Miss Lawry was acclaimed by the Pittsburgh Post as the leading scorer in the district. Munhall is proud to have the leading scorer in the district among its realms. In nine games, Isobel had accumulated one hundred and fifty-four field goals, averaging seventeen per game, having accumulated against the difficult competition of the Independent Allegheny County girls’ league. The offensive exploits of Miss Wozniak, who has scored four-fifths of Munhall’s points, including many fouls beside the one hundred and fifty-four field goals has been the vehicle instrument in Munhall’s brilliant record. RICHARD H. ROWLEY Our Trainer Richard Rowley, better known as “Dick,” should not he forgotten for the faithful services he rendered to our hoys’ teams. In his work as a trainer, he gained the cooperation and good will of all the boys on the field as well as on the floor. It must he remembered that Dick witnessed every basket-ball and football game possible besides willfully giving aid to the injured and whispering words of encouragement when necessary. It must also he remembered that Dick’s services were rendered without one cent of cost to our school. For the training acquired and the spirit shown by the teammates, as well as the student body, we re greatly affected by the ardent labors of our trainer. And in behalf of the student body, the coach and team mates, we wish to thank Mr. Rowley for his diligent services rendered to us. THE MUNHISKO 23 KENNETH THOMPSON Thompson, the center on the varsity basket-ball team and fullback on the football team, has been a very active worker in upholding MunhaH’s athletics. During the practice period, before the football games began, he reported every night for practice and participated in every game played. In summing up the work he did in football we need only to say that In-scored every point made by Munhall. In basket-ball he was also the second leading scorer. He held down the pivot position splendidly and stood at the head of the defense to' withstand the offense of their opponents. It was mostly through the work of Thomson that MunhaU’s team has been better this year than previous years. It is also well to note in regards to athletics that Thomson accepted the position of coach for the Junior Class interclass basket-ball team and took his team to second place in the league. He is also taking an active part in the new interclass baseball league that has been formed recently. He covers the position of first base on the Junior team. As a climax to the resume of Thomson’s career in athletics, we need say that lie is the only player in Munhall who made the all-scholastic basketball team this year by the selection of the Y. I . I. A. L. officials, in this section. MAE CUTNELL Mae Cutnell, a Munhall High freshman, recently returned from Buffalo, bringing honor to her school as well as to the Homestead Library Swimming Team, of which she is a member. She is a member of the relay team which succeeded in placing second in the Senior National Swimming Races at Buffalo. It was defeated by the New York team, whose members are excellent swimmers of world wide experience. At the Senior National meet, Mae captured two places of distinction. In the 500 yard free style she won fourth place, and in the relay, she helped to capture second place. Mae will begin practicing for the Senior National Swimming Races at Kenny wood Bool as soon as the weather permits. Mae also won many honors at the Conneaut meet last summer as well as placing in many other prominent meets. It has been rumored that Mae is a very promising prospect for the Olympic tryouts in New York City next year, when she will compete against national aquatic stars. Munhall students are more than pleased with the work of the local team of which Mae is a member, and are wishing Mae loads of success. Keep it up. Mae. 24 THE MUNI IISKO APPRECIATION The Senior Class wishes to take this opportunity to thank the following committees who have made this publication possible: Edward Markowitz, Chairman Emro Lackzo Dan Maczko Ethel Cribble Kathryn Watson The Seniors also thank the following who have helped to secure advertisements for this issue of the Munhisko: Bernice Natcher Mildred Pearson Jack Speidle Alex Pentek Howard Coley 'j THE MUNHISKO PATRON IZE OUR ADVERTISERS 26 THE MUNHISKO ‘Photos in this Pictorial were made in ‘Homestead ba '.K- T2.
