The honor of being the first freshman class of North Huntingdon was bestowed upon the class of 1950 as they first en- tered their Alma Mater on September 4, 1946. After the confusion subsided, the class of '50 began taking interest in their new surroundings. The junior varsity teams quickly claimed boys interested in sports. Girls also showed active interest in the intramural and outdoor activities. Early in October they elected as class officers: Philip Henry, presidentg William McCune, vice-presidentg Lee Mull, secre- tary. Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Alice Kelly these officers success- fully presented the annual Freshman- Sophomore Party. The school term of 1947-48 proved the class of '50 even more enthusiastic. Advised by Mrs. Ellsworth Schwartz as sophomores, they chose Robert Hornak, president: Nick Chopich, vice-presidentg Harriet Lee, secretary. This sophomore class was well represented in sports and all school activities. While the varsity and junior varsity claimed many of the boys on the gridiron and hardwood squads, both boys and girls alike participated in intra- murals, High lighting the year was the Freshman-Sophomore Party held in April. The beginning of the 1948-49 term saw the members of the class of 1950 anticipating the duties of upperclassmen with hope and confidence. They began an- other year working toward their goal by electing Nick Chopich, president, Carl Nosse, vice-presidentg Lois Horton, secre- tary. After a great deal of hard work on the part of the advisers, Mrs. Alice Kelly and Mrs. Helen Hadley, the class raised enough funds for the J unior-Senior Prom. Clubs, publications, football and basket- ball teams, intramurals, and scholarship honor rolls all had representatives from the junior class. September of 1949 saw the class of '50 determined toward their hard-earned goal. After surviving the difficulties that arose early in the fall, they elected in November, under the supervision of Miss Anne Santner, Nick Chopich, president: Don Filtz, vice-presidentg Lois Horton, secretaryg Alberta Maystrovich, treasurer. The members of the class again rated high both scholastically and in school activities. Along with the new year that came in, came the thoughts and plans for gradua- tion and the undecided future. Although some climbed aboard, oth- ers dropped off our wagon of fun as we rolled through our high school days. But when it comes to reminiscing, the past four years will stand out above all others.
