 HUN D RED THIRTY NINE MUNH1SKO THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF MUNHALL HIGH SCHOOL Munhall, Pennsylvania IN DEDICATION WE’ lU° class of 39. wish lo express our sincere appreciation lo our class sponsor. Mr. Hyatt. I y dedicating lo him this annual. I hrough his cheerfulness and willingness lo help in difficulty he has become an integral part of the class of 1959. Usually. being a member of the faculty places one on a much higher level than a student. I his high level provides lor limited association and little participation in student activities; but not so with Mr. Hyatt. Throughout the time that he has acted as our class sponsor, he has put forth every effort to achieve the successes we may have had. Not only that, he has brought himself down from the perch of a strict pedant to make us individually his friends. He is as much a student as a teacher. So we. who leave Munhall this year, consider this year’s book a tribute lo his friendship. J 1JV ■- V ■Wi Ji ■ y +m n I . - JT i . —■« y r • •-:' ' V '• 5' K ' H I I O P E N I ■—l B () () Back in the early 1800 s a group of fore-sighted settlers cooperated in erecting the lirsl school building in what is now Mun-hall. Working industriously, they had soon completed a crude, drafty log structure on I wenty-second Street, which was destined to serve as the only place ol learning in the great curve of the mighty Monongahela River. Students in search of education came from miles around to master the rudiments and fundamentals of the three R s. Later this venerable edilice was razed, and the Franklin School was built on the same site. In ISO7) the lirst humble buildings of the present I welfth Avenue (  rade School were erected to meet the increasing demand of the territory, and to accommodate the swarm of new students. I he thriving new community immediately showed its interest in furthering education hv purchasing the properly between Eleventh Avenue and Boone Alley. In 1904, upon this newly-acquired plot, was built the eight-room structure which is now the central part of the high school. I he far-seeing Munhall residents were not yet satisfied, and they soon made further acquisitions. I he lirsl of these was the four-room sc hool which stood on land purc hased from John Munhall. I hen in 1913, a four-room school was established at I welfth and Andrew, and later in the same year ten new rooms were added to the high school. Progress on the schools was temporarily delayed by a disastrous fire in 1918 which destroyed the high school auditorium. After repairing this damage, the school authorities added live rooms and an auditorium to the high school. I hen in 1931. an eleven room addition was made to the high school, to accommodate a sudden increase in enrollment. In 1932. YVoodlawn Junior I ligh School, a highly modern structure, was erected to serve the Park residents and to prevent overcrowding. In all respects. Woodlawn is well equipped and suited for modern educational purposes. I he latest acquisition to Munhall Sc hools is the Marigold Street School, built in 1939. I hus. in looking over the history ol Munhall Schools, it is plainly evident how lar-sighted Munhall residents were. I hose pioneers were not too concerned with their own vital affairs to realize that education was worthy of their whole-hearted support. From the humble beginning, which they made in 1800, has developed a network of interrelated school buildings which adequately serve to train Munhall youth. cfthe 'ftI) BOOKS OF KNOWLEDGE THE SCHOOL “A human being is not, in any proper sense, a human being till he is educated.

Its guidance and help is responsible for the line showing Munhall High School has made. I his year in all fields ol activities they coopen tied and backed the lootball team in its great victory and they offered more opportunities for Munhall s debate team. I he seven members, receiving insufficient credit for the opportunities offered to us. do their best to give us the finest class ol education. By selecting line leathers, good materials and equipment, and interesting educational assemblies, the school board is kept busy throughout the entire year. We deeply appreciate its splendid work in our behalf in the past and what it is to do in the future. fT'O tlie seniors who are graduating, we extend our congratulations. ou will lac e difficult problems but the intelligent, well trained youth who go forth with a resolute determination to line! a place where they can render useful service need have no fear of ultimate failure. Even chance favors the trained mind. The paramount needs of youth today are faith in soc iety and in human resources of mind and spirit, coupled with an appreciation of what has been accomplished and a wilt to go forward to new goals. May you each one have a successful and useful life. H OW long we'll remember these characteristic poses of Mr. Wherry and Mr. Trimble, our principals. who are always concerned deeply with our problems! I lie M unhall I acuity What could Mr. Walbert have found so interesting on the bulletin board? It doesn't look like a German test to me. Mr. Weaver and Mr. McCarthy, our art and shop instructors, are admiring their handiwork on the stage setting. Just between you and me. they've got something there. Don't Wood lawn s history teachers make an interesting picture? And Miss Welsh and Mrs. Hill certainly make history just as interesting. Mr. Osier. Woodlawn's new gym teacher, lakes a “sunning’ on the front steps when the “birdie gets him. Three history teachers get their heads together. Mr. 1 lyatl is doing all the talking while Mr. Wilson and Mr. McLean are the innocent bystanders. V' Look at those smiles! Could Mr. Wieland arid Mr. Frantz have found a new “puzzler” lor their geometry classes? All gather around, folks, while Miss Hickey and Mr. Busch give us a duet. By Miss Bollinger s wide smile, we can see it isn t too bad. Find the error in this picture. I hat s it. Motive got it! Mr. Lloyd and Mr. Shannon belong behind the typewriter, but Mr. Charlton should have an algebra book. History teachers—Mrs. Gray. Mr. Cross and Mr. Elkins—get together again! Could Mr. Elkins be smiling about his successful Debate Club? I hree charming school inarms—Miss Keltz, Mrs. Dodds and Mrs. I rainor. They certainly do their part in making English a pleasure. More English teachers! Maybe Miss Ball and Miss Frederick are discussing yesterday’s test or is it the Mun iisfo? I lie Munliall faculty Mr. Todd. Munhall’s chief baton wielder. is pleased about something. I II bet it s some new music for tlie choir. 1 lie. Iiaec. hoc.” Sound familiar? Well Miss Risheberger certainly hopes so. Mademoiselle Daly looks puzzled, n'est-ce pas? We present Miss Williams and Miss Albert, the guiding hands to many English students. Thanks. Miss Williams, for helping us with the Annual! f Mr. Ramsey is showing Mrs. Nippes his grade book. Why doesn t he show her some grasshoppers? Bet she d be scared. We wonder what the commercial teachers lind so interesting. Probably one of Mr. Brand’s brilliant ideas has caught the attention of Miss C roat and Miss Markey. 1 hese three. M iss Bertram, M iss Rush, and Miss Macbeth hold the fate of this class in their hands. For what senior has escaped Dramatic. Debate. English, or Mun iisfco? Could this experiment be dealing with elements more dangerous than I l-O? With Mr. f.acko. Mr. Beggs is here a victim of one of his own Camera C lub fans. My, look bow studious Miss Berger and Miss Briggs are. We bet there s a lot of work in store for somebody. Miss Forest and Miss Widdowson take time off from their math classes to pose for the camera. Look pretty, please! Miss Cox. the cooking instructor, must have invited Miss Howat. the librarian, and M iss Newell, the seamstress, to tea. May we come, loo? I hree cheers for our athletic instructors—Miss Barnes and Mr. Rutter, our gym teachers—and Mr. Markowitz, our football and basketball coach. WILSOM ... milk -•y BUILDING UPKEEP Little noticed in the busy rush of school, and yet very important in keeping us comfortable, is this exc ellent group of workers. I hese seldom noticed people keep things running smoothly. In proportion to the vast amount of work they do, they seem to receive less attention and recognition than any other branch of the school system. No. this isn’t a Wilson milk ad pictured above. It s just our smiling attendance officer. Mr. Chilcote. performing one of his many duties. Mr. Dovle, Mr. Davies and Mr. I urner don I often have time to sit clown and rest as the pic ture shows. Cleaning and fixing the sc hool certainly keeps them c|uile busy. Mr. E. M. Cox. Secretary’ of the Board of Directors and Superintendent of Buildings, and Miss Eleanor Pfeiffer. Assistant, are the capable supervisors ol the finances and the maintenance of the school. Mrs. Jones. Mrs. Pearce. Mr. Beard and Mr. Myers are mainly responsible lor Woodlayvn s excellent condition. All of them have gained many friends through their willingness to fix this and mend that. M iss Cosgrove. Miss Jones and M iss Mosbacher are our three smiling secretaries. They are always willing to lend a helping hand. I lave a head ac he. Dr. Darsie and Miss Connelly have an ever ready supply of aspirins and medic ine on hand to take skilled care of your numerous aches and pains. Mr. Price’s and Mr. Rowley s wide smiles and cheery “Hellos greet many persons as they go about making us comfortable. Do yve need to say more SENIOR CLASS HISTORY NINETEEN HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE QRADUATION day! Hc-re al last! We I lie courageous seniors are about to go out and fight our battles. It doesn t seem so long since we were fresh men. does it? We can still see ourselves, shy. inexperi enced. frightened by the sophomores, looked down upon by the juniors, and scorned by the seniors. Most of the boys wore knee pants and the girls were too old for bows and too young for beaux. 1 hose freshmen days were high lighted by our memorable freshman party. It was a red-letter day in our young lives. Smooth (lowing rhythm, lovely colors, spring breezes—-and the dance progressed. Our first big social event! It wasn’t long before the shy boys found partners and danced -But then, we asserted ourselves as sophomores. I aking a firm grip, we started out as an organized class. I hen. it was our turn to lease the freshies! The class industriously began to sell seeds to swell the treasury. But all was not work. Remember the sophomore party! It was a grand affair and lots ol fun. After a year of algebra and The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”, we began to be jolly and to enjoy school as well. However, we became sobered, to some extent, upon assuming the responsibi lity of upper classmen. We were no longer sophomores. Another year had given us the much anticipated title of juniors. Who can forget the excitement and the beautiful music ol the All-Western Orchestra when Munhall was host to schools from all over Western Pennsylvania. Our dramatic offering of I lie year. I hat Girl Patsv won special notice as a successful class play. Studies, tests, gossip, and extra-curricular activities kept the class busy until May 6. the night of the Junior-Senior prom. The gala affair was held at Webster I fall, with dancing to the music of Alex Morgan. A senior at last! Our dream came true, and we started olf on a round ol elections and committee work. Election day saw I om Slater re-elected as president. Bernard Coley as vice president, and Zella Wilkinson as secretary. I he Annual Stall was chosen and work began in earnest. In the midst ol all this, the football team exploded their 27 year jinx by beating Homestead 15-6. More cause for jubilation, for ten seniors served as co-captains in the game! Events happened fast and furiously after that. I he senio play. Spring Fever,’ featured a talented cast at the Carnegie Library. I hen before the discussion of the senior play was finished, Munhall s annual Christmas play enlivened the scene. I lere again seniors took an active part in making a successful venture of it. “ t Christmas vacation, exams, and term papers followed in quick succession. Orchestra and band members were sent to various parts of the state to participate in tbe festivals. I be operetta. H.M.S. Pinafore scored a tremendous hit with seniors in prominent rolls. Faster slipped by. I hen in the center of all these activities. Prom bids circulated freely and the gala junior-senior day came. W ebster I fall was filled with merriment. Lovely frocks of organdy, lace and net. curls and llowers of the girls-—white coats and sleek hair ol the fellows—all created a picture of color and movement. Now it was spring—almost summer, the busiest ol seasons, the saddest of limes! It was the lime ol commencement —the time of beginnings and endings. Every senior’s thought turned to the senior assembly—slow and grave. Commencement—pensive and pompous. ( Jray-gowned seniors marched down the aisles. We had entered Munhall as freshmen to gain knowledge. As seniors we are going forth to serve. Abraiiam, I. Adamitz, E. Al. BRECHT. L. Albrecht. M. Anderson. R. Archer. R Aston. R. Bailey. F. Baker.

The guiding hands of Miss Frederick, sponsor; Ed Boytim, president; Betty Jane Lloyd, vice president; and Jack I lofen. secretary are ready to lead the class to the greatest heights ol success. But let past achievements speak lor themselves. Outstanding among their activities are the two highlights ol their sophomore year, their party at I lallowe’en and I lie party in May. Not to he outdone by other classes, they have sold vegetables and flowei seeds, and shared in tlie profits of movies shown under the joint sponsorship of the Junior Red Cross Council, and the junior and senior classes. In the second semester the class really asserted itself. New faces appeared in t lie halls as junior cops took over the job of keeping order. I he candy and milk concessions came under the supervision of Juniors. Remember, everyone’s wearing those personal labels? I bat. too. was a project of ( lever juniors. But the climax of all class activities came in the February presentation of ‘Friend Hannah ’. I his was sure proof that Munhall students are willing to accept dramatic and costume productions. Building three different stage settings really showed the ability of the stage crew and also provided the lovely background for the drama. All this, combined with the acting talents ol the juniors, helped to make the play a huge success. Many things have already been accomplished but much more is in store for this active class of 1940.

Sophomore Class History NINETEEN HUNDRED FORTY-ONE “Betwixt and between is the wail o( the Sophomore—not old enough to do as a Junior does and absolutely not young enough to act like a Freshie. 1 his has been the predicament of Sophomore lasses down through the ages. li.ii to prove that our history is not dim. here is the record ol the class of 1941. Two years ago an energetic Freshman class entered MunnaU's portals. I his was our present Sophomore class. Organized in the second semester, they elected officers and student council representatives. Being Freshmen, having a number of new things to understand, and having to acquaint themselves, the class was not able to accomplish much. I Iowever, they held a party on May 13. I he next year brought a more active schedule for the Sophomores. After settling down to routine work, the group planned a Hallowe’en party in the gymnasium. Ghosts danced with witches, pirates romped over the floor wkh bo -peeps, and clowns frolicked with old-fashioned ladies. All in all. the evening was enjoyable and it proved a good start lor their activities. On general election day the following officers were elected: Dale Fox. president: Martha l.acko. vice president: Jack Grosset, secretary. Mr. McCarthy, always popular with the students, was heartily endorsed as class sponsor. I hese industrious sophomores then turned their attention to matters of finance. Several skating parties were held to obtain funds. During that time, pleasure again took the upper hand. lo climax a busy year, the class party in May was all that was needed. The pastel shades of pink and blue worn by the girls mingled with the darker colored suits of the boys. For the lirst time Munhall sophomores invited Woodlawn sophomores to their party. It is a proven fact that when a class begins such industrious and energetic work as sophomores, a great deal may he expected of them as upper classmen. ROOM 5 Row I (left to right): P. Bugcl. T.

Freshman Class History NINETEEN HUNDRED FORTY-TWO And now, dear reader, may we present to you our Presides, that chattering, enlh usiastic group who became a part of Munhall I ligh School for the lirst time last September. All er settling the mystery of where the halls and corridors lead to, they found that another misery had to be dodged — initiation. I hen. after the upperclassmen were satisfied, the Ireshmen were allowed to go on their way —finding algebra unknowns, conjugating Latin verbs and discovering the mysteries of science. In the course of the year, the old and established organizations saw new faces in their midst. Freshmen became Munhisko staff members, debaters, rifle shooters, and Curl Reserves. But. as a class, nothing was done tin til the second semester. I hen. Mr. Wherry called them together in a meeting. ( )ut of this, five home rooms were welded together as one class —the class of 1942. I o lead them Cornelia Redeskv was elected president. John Foster as vice president, and Jean ( Garland as secretary-treasurer. M r. Lacko was elected as the faculty sponsor. Because the upper classes dominate school happenings, the class as a whole did not have a chance to become active during the spring months. But on M ay 12. all this was made up lor when the I reshies attended their lirst real social event. When the party was over, this group of beginners returned to their everyday lives as M.l I.S. freshmen, however, it remains one of their best memories. Now they are anxiously looking forward to tlieir last three years in high sc hool. I hen surely they'll really be able to accomplish something. ROOM 2 Row I (loft to right): M. O I oolc. M. Quinn. M.

Bernard C oley Nell McDowell Robert Brinker THE ANNUAL STAFF PLANNING a yearbook for the class ol 1939 is the task which confronted the annual staff Iasi fall. I his task presented many serious problems. I he staff was organized early in the year and began work immediately. I he business staff interviewed advertisers who generously contributed. I he class willingly cooperated by presenting a play and selling Christmas cards and candy. I he literary stalf wrote and rewrote articles. The student photographers took pictures of the informal life of the students. By clever advertising the stalf urged the students to buy the annuals. I he Munhisko room was a whirl of activity. I he students wanted more pictures, good write-ups, a good theme—a yearbook that pictured the true life at Munhall. I his was what the stall aimed to give them. I heir goal was to produce for the class of 1939 the best Munhisko ever. I hey attended an exhibition of prize yearbooks to find ways to better their own annual. I lie class bought a camera for the school which was immediately used for taking more and better pictures. After several compromises, the theme and the type ol cover were decided upon. The school board turned over to the students a room where they worked during study periods and after school. I he staff, under tfie supervision ol the class advisor, Mr. Hyatt, and with your cooperation, has published this Munhisko.

Curtain! Action! The play is on! The audience applauds! I he Stage Guild is at work! Backstage worries have begun! Each assembly program and class play is the climax to the cooperative spirit of a group of hard working, dirty-faced, overalled boys who comprise the Stage Guild. Their efforts are indespensible to successful productions—each one of their tasks plays a vital part in any presentation. Ever alert, dependable, and willing to work are these “men behind the scenes . The Stage Guild is chosen and supervised by Miss I helma Rush. Each boy must be well informed in craft, electricity, woodwork, and painting, for the smooth coordination of their duties is the answer to an excellent play. A whisk of a paint brush, a shift in furniture, a snap of a light switch, and the scene changes. To the members ol the Stage Guild—credit is given where credit is due! DRAMATIC CLUB urpj |E play s the thing! —the whole world agrees with Shakespeare. I he Woodlawn Dramatic Club gives the community what it wants. I his club has gained wide recognition because of its excellent dramatic pre sentations.

The sue- ccss of the team was largely attributed to the able coaching of Miss Markey. Mr. ( harlton and Mr. ilson and to the markmanship of Dorothy Braddoc k. Irene Ladic, June 11unker, Mary Louise Reich, Marion Rowell, Catherine Mitz, Marjorie StiNo. Zella Wilkinson. Martha Lloyd, and Bert Schuchman. Munhall also competed in several other events. The boys’ team shot a pistol match with Iowa City I ligh School of Iowa ( ity. In their request for the match they specifically stated no girls. I he Munhall boys won by a score of 499-479. In the fifth annual invitational meet at Carnegie Tech, Ligonier dethroned the Munhall gunners who had won the trophy for four successive vears. Munhall teams No. I and No. 2 took second and third places respectively. Little is known outside the team of the accomplishments of some of the members, l or the first semester Dorothy Braddoc k. a senior, and Martha Lloyd, a junior, both members of the Varsity turned in perfect scores for each match. Zella Wilki nson and Catherine Mitz dropped one point each. Marjorie Stille shot a perfec t score of 200 at the Tech meet. All of the Munhall shooters placed high in individual competition.

Under the capable coaching of Mr. Weiland. who devoted his time to teaching the boys, the team developed rapidly. As the first practice was called, more than 50 boys answered, thus showing the popularity of this sport at Munhall. Playing other teams from Western Pennsylvania, Munhall compared favorably with all its opponents, meeting such schools as Coraopolis. Braddoch, Glassport, and I.at robe. I lie annual W.IM.A.L. tournament was held at Pitt, and Munhall looked forward eagerly for the title. Fhe games played were as follows: ( mines I st 2nd 3rd Coraopolis .. Munhall ..... ' Braddock Munhall .... Glassport .... LMunhall .... Olassporl .... Munhall ..... Coraopolis 'Munhall ' Latrobe ... 'Munhall 'Latrohe ....

I he crisp spring air. the keen competitive interest, and the willingness to participate signified the commencing of the season of the great out-of-door sport. When Mr. Rutter, the soccer coach, issued a call lor players, he found that he had ten lettermen around to build his team. I he team this year was made up of ten seniors with previous experience on the varsity:—W. Beatty. L. Cullen. J. Dauria. R. Dierken. .). Fetsko, E. Keeler. W • Kinavey. .). Martin. L. Motteram. M. Slobodnik. GOLF “Golf th is afternoon! I his familiar phrase echoed through the halls of high school on a sunny day. I laving elected Nick Krenicky as captain, and having received extensive training, the boys with their golf sticks paraded out to the greens and tangled in friendly competition until some one emerged victorious. Shouts of ecstacy and swinging of sticks showed the end of the game. Every game was furiously played and the spirit of rivalry was very keen in each contest. Its attraction can be attributed to the fact that it is an outdoor game and that it provided pure wholesome exercise lor its participants. SEPTEMBER Thursday I—School begins!
