Bringing, as it does, an account of all the branches of school activity, it is hoped that the reader will find this edition interest- ing and entertaining. If in the days and years to come, this book may help to bridge the gap between the Past and -the Present and to brighten the memory of school days at old Oakmont, made mellow by the hand of time, we shall know that our labor has not been in vain, and we shall be content.

SIX MINUTES OF PLAY CC ACKSON, report to me after class l The old white haired professor's voice rang shrilly across the classroom strik- ing gloom into more hearts than one. Everyone knew what the professor wanted with jackson. just as usual jackson's work had not been up to the profes- sor's standard, and now, if the old gentleman was in his accustomed humor, he wouldn't allow the student to participate in the important game with the Lakeside basketball team that evening. lint such is Fate! The bell rang and the class tramped out of the classroom gloomily. No chance for Vernon this game they decided. After all had left, Jackson arose slowly and went to the desk. Jackson, for the second time this month you have failed to prepare the work that I assigned. VVhy is this? If it were the first time I might relent-but the second time. It is too much. You must either hand to me a theme of five hundred words by this evening or you cannot participate in the game tonight. That is ally you may go. Slowly and crestfallen the object of the professor's wrath left the room and went to his dormitory. He was disgusted with life in general. 'He wa.sn't an authorg he hadn't the talent so what would be the use of even trying to write a theme. No, certainly he couldnyt write it. But he did want to play for she would be there, watching for him to lead his team to victory. And what would she think of him if he failed to play? These thoughts ran through his mind. After a moment's hesitation he drew a pad of writing paper and a pencil from his desk and seated himself. Many subjects came to him but none seemed appropriate. At last he thought of Spring On the Campus. It sounded rather good so he wrote a few introductory sentences. More followed and after an hour several sheets of material confronted him. He read it carefully. It sounded perfectly absurdg the words were ill-chosen, the sentence construction was worse and altogether he decided that he wouldn't be silly enough to give it to the professor. He threw it aside and hastened outside. There he met several of his chums who questioned him concerning his predicament. They sympathized with him, and when they heard of his failure they became more gloomy thanever. One particular friend asked him what he had done with his attempts at theme writing. After being told he slipped away hurriedly toward the dormitory. Not until dinner time that evening did jackson return to his room. When he did so he noticed that the papers were missing but he gave it no thought. Perhaps the janitor had taken them. So he dressed for the game. Even if he couldn't play he would like to see his team-mates fight for the honor of Vernon. Alone he left his room and in a few minutes entered the gaily decorated gym. Deafening cheer- ing arose from all sides: a great crowd was there that night. In a few moments the game started. At the end of the first quarter the score was tie I5-15. The absence of their captain obviously weakened the Vernon team. Their offense was weak and the defense, weaker. Only luck prevented them from being swamped. The second quarter ended with the home team leading by four points. Perhaps fickle victory might roost on V ernon's banner. lfiut at the whistle starting the second half the visiting team began a whirlwind attack. The four point lead was soon overcomeg Thirty-Four ff OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL -. and that was not sufficient for one, two, 'three field goals in succession were caged by Lakeside and the third quarter found them leading by twelve points. The students of Vernon were yelling themselves hoarse for a better defense and Jack- son was the loudest of them. If he were only playing- Glancing across the balcony he saw the English professor. Surely the profes- sor would not refuse to allow him to play for a few minutes. After stumbling over many feet he reached the professor. Couldn't he play this last quarter he queried? VVhy aren't you playing now, Jackson? The theme that was handed in for you was splendid. The subject was very good, the description was excellent and- But Jackson heard no more. VVith a few leaps he was in the dressing room. By the time the first quarter was six minutes old, the timekeeper's whistle blew and Jackson went in for a tired player who -had done his best that night. With only six minutes of play and the score 35-47 in the visiting team's favor, Jackson instilled new life in his team a11d began an attack that brought the crowd to it's feet. In four minutes Vernon's score had increased to 43. Only four points behind Lakeside with two minutes to play. A foul was called and was made by a Vernon player. Now three points to the bad, but only a very short time was left and his team-mates were almost fagged out. VVith the ball under his opponents' basket, Jackson commenced to dribble down the floor. Straight through the Lakeside defense he went and easily tossed the ball toward the basket. The timekeeper's whistle blew even as it sailed through the net. Cheers from Lakeside, groans from Vernon, arose from the different sides. Vernon had lost by one point. Above the din sounded the referee's shrill whistle. All eyes turned toward him. There he was placing the ball on Vernon's foul line, with two fingers raised. A player, it was jackson, stepped up to the line, carefully aimed the ball and tossed it cleanly through the basket. The score was tie! The crowd was silent. It seemed as though everyone held his breath as the solitary player raised the ball again and threw it. Straight toward the basket it sailed, struck the rim, rolled around once and dropped in. Then pandemonium did break loose! But Jackson heard only one voice and saw only one figure among that tumultous crowd. It was a small red-jacketed figure in the balcony that he saw. She had seen him win for her. After the crowd had dispersed and the moon. beamed down on the velvety campus two persons could be seen. What they said no one except they themselves know but it may be assured that there were two persons that night who were supremely happy. Oh what satisfaction and bliss lies in a victor's heart! Thi rty-F it 'e THE PERISCOPE THE MYSTERY OF LORD CECIL TAVERN N THE little village of Hadley, Massachusetts, there o-nce stood a rambling, dilapidated inn. A weather-beaten sign disclosed it to be. Lord Cecil Inn-Ye Traveller's Rest. Long years before it had been the center of village life. After a hard day's work the men of the village would gather there to smoke their long pipes and dis- cuss the news of the countryside. At that time the tavern was very imposing with it's shining bar, huge fireplace and silver pla-ted tankards of foaming brown. ale. it was rumored that the original owner, who had been compelled to Hee from England forsome petty me, had brought with him an immense fortune which he had hid- den in the tav' rn.. Numerous at-tempts had been made to discover the hidden fortune, b ,needless to say, all such undertakings were unsuccessful. The 1 ,gent owner of the tavern was Roger de Wolf, a portly old gentleman, with ajomp cent and robust nature of a man, to whom Fortune has been kind. One stormy night when the villagers were gathered around the roaring fire they heard the sound of coach wheels rumbling along the frozen road. De Wolf arose and walked cautiously to the door. He opened it' and peered out. Coming up the steps was a young lady, very slender and pale, appearing to be exhausted by the furious tempest. Upon entering the room she gazed at the men who returned her stare in uudisguised amazement. VVhy was such a person of apparent gentility and refinement out in such weather, they mutely questioned? The newcomer hur- riedly asked De Wolf to show her to a room at once. When he returned he refused to take part in the heated discussion concerning the late guest. After several days the comment subdued and then an event occurred that changed the history of the inn. During the night the mysterious guest disappeared and although a thorough search was made no trace of her could be found. At once a rumor was instigated that the inn was haunted and as a result De Wolf lost so much patronage that he was compelled to leave and find another occupation. As time passed the inn grew more dilapidated, it's fine trimmings became dull and shabby, the window panes were broken, and an air of depressment enveloped the place. At night the people were afraid to pass by on the road and when they did so it was with many misgivings. In the daytime curious boys fearfully approached the windows and scanned the interior with greatest awe. Many years afterwards two young men, Harvey and Albert Flynn, while journeying through that part of the country, heard the story of the inn and at once decided to explore it's interior and if possible, reveal it's mystery. So one day they went to the inn and entered after forcing the ancient portal. As they walked from room to room in the clouds of dust that they stirred up, their chances for success seemed to grow smaller. But after several days of futile searching and just as they were about to abandon their quest, Harvey accidently moved a small section of the massive scroll work above the fireplace. To their astonishment one of the panels in the wall moved aside. They hastened to it and stooping down, passed through. Here they found the whitened bones of the unknown woman that had entered the inn so many long years ago never to leave-but that was all. Thirty-Swv f OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL It later developed that she was a descendant of the original owner and when he died he entrusted his secret to her. So she had come to America to recover her rel- ative's fortune but instead of finding that, she found a horrible death when the slid- ing panel imprisoned her. And the mystery of the hidden fortune still remains a secret. It' is apparent that the lady did not obtain it and who did find it will probably never be known. llIIllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll' THE HIDDEN VALLEY T XVAS in the spring of 1893 that I was invited to a frie11d's ranch in northern Alberta, to spent a few weeks in that great land. Since I had often longed for such an opportunity I decided to accept the invitation. So early one morning I left the chill fog and rain of my southern home and was soon speeding northward to the snow-covered country around the headwaters of the Mackenzie. I A few days later my train pulled alongside of a small log shanty that served as a station and I alighted, burdened with numerous bags and satchels. My friend was waiting for me in a light wagon and after collecting my equippage we set off to the ranch. All along the road little spring fiowers pushed their heads between the fast diminishing snowdrifts: farther away vast fields dotted with boulders left by the long gone ice Helds stretched before us and beyond that, the blue summits of the mountains, looking quite dark and foreboding near their bases. The sky above was a clear blue with only a stray fiuffy cloud sailing across, keeping com- pany with a tlock of high flying birds returning to their northern haunts. In several hours we arrived at the La Crue ranch, for that was the name of my friend. A low, solidly built log house. which harmonized with the ruggedness of the surrounding country. VVe entered into a large room decorated with heads and skins of wild animalsg a large fire blazed in one corner and over it hung a long rifle. VVell, here's your home for sometime, Jack, my friend called to me. I hope you will like it, even though it is rather unlike your own home. And there is fine hunting hereaboutsf' I agreed with him for it looked very cosy indeed and as for hunting, well, it is my main. diversion. Then came supper and following that a gathering around the blazing fireplace. Stories were told of big hunting trips, terrible snow storms, cattle drives, and others. All of these interested me hugely for I had never experienced such events, but one story attracted me the most. It was related by La Crue about a herd of bisons that he had stumbled upon while lost in a snow storm years ago. But although that herd was never seen again, he continued, I am sure that somewhere near here is a fine bunch of those animals hidden away. All evening and long after the lights had been dimmed that night the story went through my mind. VVa.s it possible that such a thing be true? There were numerous almost hidden canyons in that country where they might be cached. With these thoughts I went to sleep. XV ith the morning came a warm sun. The drip-drip-drip of the melting snow sounded as sweetest music to me. I could not remain indoors that morning: so after a hearty breakfast I set out afoot, determined to have an exploration trip by myself. TIzz'1'ty-Semen I THE PERISCOPE -. For a long time I tramped about aimlessly: the myriads of birds, the spring flowers and the blue sky above filled me with a desire to never leave this apparent Paradise. So I tramped on and on, entirely forgetting that I might easily get lost, for the land was unfamiliar to me. It was about noon that while climbing over a slight ledge that I slipped. After sliding and sprawling over the icy slope I man- aged to reach the foot of the descent. I found myself in a small valley with almost perpendicular wall covered with snow and ice, except in one direction where lay an open vista of green meadow land. In this direction I started hoping to find some exit. In a few moments while rounding the projecting side of the canyon wall, I confronted the largest bull buffalo that' I had ever seen. It stood there for a second and then, turned and galloped down the valley. Then forgetting my numerous but small wounds I had obtained in my fall, I clambered up the rocky hillside with but one thought and that was to leave the meadow land and it's inhabitants far in the 1'621I'. After climbing for some time I found myself on the plain that I had traversed before my recent adventure. Ilut then my troubles increased. My unusual exertions fatigued me and in a short time I was compelled to rest. The sun sank lower in the west, a magnificent ball of flame lighting up the surrounding landscape with a golden glow. It grew colder: a breeze began to dance over the snow. Within a short time it would be dark and impossible for me to find my way back to the ranch, so selecting a sheltered position behind a huge boulder I lay down and was soon asleep. just before dawn I awoke. The moon still cast dim. shadows over the land and grey outlines of boulders became animated and seemingly moved. The breeze had died out and left the chill of the approaching morn that penetrated my clothing and set me shivering. Soon silver streaks pierced the eastern horizon, farther and farther up into the heavens they spread, then turned yellow, then golden. A warm glow diffused the sky and before long the monarch sun's red- dened form arose from behind the dim outline of the far.off mountains. The day had arrived and with it my desire for more of those wonderful Hapjacks on which I had breakfasted the previous morning. So across the country I started in the direction of the ranch, or at least so I thought. It was late in the afternoon of that day that, tired and almost starved, La Crue and his men found me wondering around. Of the time that had elapsed since I started out that morning until I was found, I have only a dim recollection. While on the way to the ranch I related a little of my experiencesg the canyon with it's hidden herd and the night on the plains. Some of the boys smiled wisely when I mentioned the animals, but La Crue siezed my hand enthusiastically and declared that he was glad that someone would believe his story. After a sumptious meal I tried to recall how I had reached the hidden valley but it was of no avail. Several days later my friends and I searched for many an hour but never a glimpse did we obtain of the valley so the expedition was aban- doned with no little disgust and disappointment. But somewhere out there in Northern Alberta is a fine herd of bisons safely domiciled in a little valley which may be called, Buffalo's Paradise. Thi My-E 1' gli! ' OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL THE CAVE MAN HE boy lay stretched on the ground sunning himself in the warm sun. His costume consisted of a bearskin draped around him in the latest mode. He was a frivolous chap and was very particular that his limbs were tanned just the right shade. For some time he had been aware of a rustling in the wood in back of him and now a young girl sprang from the bushes with a cry of greeting. Lazily lie roused himself as she came near and watched her as she cap-ered about gracefully. Finally she came and sat beside him. Well?', he asked, for he knew that this girl, who had always been his play- mate, had something on her mind. W'hat have you been doin'? she asked inquisitively. Noithin', he saiid with a great display of indifference. Oh, yes you have. she replied knowingly. Old Eve told me you and Pan were down in the village last night' and were acting frightfullyfl Lot she knows about it. VVhere was she? Most likely in her bed, he answered scornfully. No, she wasn't in bed, she- Well she should have been, he snapped. Ah now Zollaph, don't get so mad. I just wanted to know if you had a good time, soothed the girl. But the boy was undergoing the after-effects of too much primitive hooch and was not in the mood to be soothed. Well, ole Eve oughta mind her own business. Goodness knows I don't go blabbin' 'bout the things I see her do. 'S all on account o' her that we ain't livin' in the Garden now with nothin, to do but have a good time. 'Stead o' that we gotta pay for every lil' thing we get an' we haveta work. work, work all the time. just 'cause she stole that ole apple when there was lots o' other stuff to eat. But I ain't runnin' 'round tellin' the whole neighborhood 'bout that .lu he ended, puffing for breath, and then he got up and stamped around a bit. The girl was used to such outbursts so she quietly sat back and waited for the storm to clear. VVhen it was over she said: ':Say, kid, there's swell deer huntin' up around the creek between our place an' ole Azaksf' How do you know ? he snapped. Oh, that fellow Wug from the other side of the mountain was over an' he caught a peach of a young buck. Why don't you come up an' try your luck ? He did, did he? Well, he drawled, maybe I'll be over that way 's evening if Pan will go 'longf' You like Pan awful well don't you? she asked, and there was just a little note of reproach in her voice. Oh, I dunno. Me an' Pan, we just seem to lit somehow. He's an awful good pal, the boy answered. Yeh, I know, but don't you think he's rather loud? Ole Eve says his dad is the Worst old souse on the island. Thirty-N i ne will: 2 THE PERISCOPE Say ! exclaimcd the boy, I think ole Eve's been pokin' a lot a.' stuff in your head lately. VVell, she oughta know, she's been here ever siiice there wasa 'here,' the girl replied impudently. ' Shes just a gossipin' ole woman what couldn't keep her mouth shut with Hy paper! the boy cried vehemently and stalked off in a fit of temper. However, he saw fit to turn back and iling at the girl, An' you're another to stay and listen to her. , 1 3 O The girl laughed at him and jumping up darted off in the direction of the cave where she lived vwith her foster-mother old Eve. As she came into the clearing before the cave the old w man filled a bowl with a savory soup from the great kettle over the fire and giave itgo the girl. The latter perched herself on top of a great boulder which sheltered the fire from the wind, to eat her soup-and talk to the old woman. , -, D ' . 'WVhere have you been, Thea F she askegl, and where is the fire wood I sent you for ? ' Oh, I forgot the wood. I've been down on tli: basl, the girl answered. 'Torgot the wood? You talk as if it were only natural that you shouldfor- get the wood, and it certainly is natural. Now you must be sure to get me some wood this afternoon because you cannot bring it tomorrow, , said Eve. . . YVhy? queried the girl. Because old Mr. Azak is dead and is to be buried.tomorrow, replied the old woman. '. Old Azak is dead ! exclaimeilffhea, VVhy he- is Zollaplfs grandfather. Did he say to whom his cave was to go T14 . .Q ' , . Yes, young Zollaph gets everything, iold Exwornied her. The afternoon went swiftly and as CVC11l1lg'6lI:CW nekilhe old woman retired as was her custom, leaving the girl to enjoy the fire and the moonlight. Tonight, however, the darkness held a new interest for her. Old Azak had died and left Zollaph his entire fortune and she felt sure that ' would come for her. Accord- ingly, she dressed herself in a beautiful leop-ard ski that Zollaph had giveni er for her birthday. .But the hours dragged by and after a time the girl stretched, erself before the fire and went to sleep. Only a few moments elapsed and she was awakened rudely by strong arms which held her tightly, so tightly in fact, that ,she could hardly breathe. She started to scream, but a deep voice said: F Shut up you dvarned foolxor Pin will hear you. He was coming 'deer' hunt- ing tonight but I beat him to i Y' ' And then Thea was quiARand snuggled closely and she did not' mind when the strong arms held her tighter' for Zollaph had corne for her. ,QK T' F arty .wily ' I ,lecfouui 'fp-Q L NT HQGTSTHLQQL RCE:-if Levi' JJJJW- X lla X go- 1 L ' X ' H Q5 ,,, ff lrU'Lf,g45.f:Q f , x f ZZQWWQ E 'z 4 ' if X ' H, W A - ig ' 5 X9 A A B.Lfr 5' ,'1 V 'I '44 CZ1f1:,f7jf0'C2'Z WJ 1,625 . jggjju' 1 ,Q fm ' ' F gm Q f Ek., wfwizrq -' , ' r W :Q W My M fWWm,,Qfff'I'f1l Q59 4 ' 'fix 6 .

At the end of the first year it included six licensed operators and several non-licensed members. An up-to-date ffor those tirnesj transmitter and neceiver was installed consisting of a seven hundred and fifty watt rotary spark gap set and a honeycomb, audion detector with two stages of amplification. This was quite an elaborate set then. In the second year the members increased to twenty-four with five more licensed operators. Among the notable events of the year was the receiving of the world seriesn and the inaugural address of the late President Harding. A small admission was charged for the purpose of improving the set. The transmitter at that time was reaching out as far as I-lronxville, New York. in the east, and Fort Wayne, Indiana, in the west. In the third year the membership was considerably smaller and no girls were included on the roll. Successful meetings were held as before. The Club rea- lized it's ambition this year for a modern CW and phone transmitter with an approximate range of seven hundred and fifty miles had been installed. It was planned to broadcast school news and to receive such from abroad. Forty-Four OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOLC Again in the fourth year the Club expanded greatly and included some OWS. In this y-ear a play entitled, x'Won By Wireless, was enacted with immense suc- cess. The profit was used to buy a large Magnovox Reproducer. The Club is now in itis fifth successful year. The transmitter has been rebuilt in Bakelite panelling and is very efficient. The receiver consists of a regenerative, a Grebe CR-l3j, and occasionally a super-heterodyne outfit loaned by Mr. Keister. Another play was given this year entitled, Between the Acts, and was quite a success from a financial and dramatic standpoint. The meetings have become intensely interesting, no doubt because movies have been shown. Even as successful as this year has been we all hope that the sixth year of the Radio Club will be even more successful. u F arty-F ive 95' OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL s THE SCIENCE CLUB HE Chemistry Club of last year reorganized as the Science Club which admits to membership all third and fourth year science students. This year has been much more successful than former years, since a few changes have been made in the programs. Moving pictures have been sh-own at several meet- ings, illustrating physical and chemical phenomena. As a result the meetings have been better attended. As special features, the Club made excursions to the West Penn Power Com- pany at Springdale, The Bell Telephone Company in Pittsburgh, and to the West- inghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company at East Pittsburgh. All the active members' of the Club agree that each year the Club is improving rapidly and it is hoped that such a development is continued. Forty-Sczfcu THE PERISCOPE THE ORCHESTRA HAT would Oakmont High School be without it's orchestra? If this ques- tion should be considered by everyone in the school, it is certain that the con- clusions would be nearly identical. There is no doubt whatever that the orchestra is a decided factor in the school curriculum. The orchestra has very willingly helped out at the various entertainments held at the school and has been quite an, added attraction. Several special numbers have been given and the preparation of such numbers means hard and steady work for the members, The orchestra has increased in size this year, there being a great variety of instruments played, namely: piano. bells, violins, cornets, saxophones, drums and mandolins. There are approximately fifteen violin players and there are more joining the orchestra frequently. The director, Mr. Eakin, should be commended on his untiring efforts to pro- duce finished products from raw material. as it were. Many members obtained their start with Mr. Eakin and are now full-fledged members of the orchestra. Let us all sup-port the orchestra and show them our appreciation. Forty-Eight THE ORCHESTRA THE PERISCOPE ' -- - - - -r ' 1, Y THE EUCLIDEAN SOCIETY HE Euclidean Society, which was organized this year in the High School, has proven of great value to it's members. This is an honorary society whose membership is open to students who have shown special interest in the study of mathematics. Meetings have been held alternate XVednestlay evenings and many interesting programs have been given, One social event was enjoyed by the organization: a Christmas party at which new members were initiated amid the laughter of the charter members. M r. R. M. Douglass gave a talk on surveying instruments and contributed to the success of the meeting by bringing a survey transit. which he explained to the society. At the meeting on February twenty-seventh, Dr. O. T. Geckeler, head of the lllathematies Department of the Carnegie 'Institute on Technology, gave a talk on the Value and Use of Mathematics. Dr. K. D. Swartzel, head of the Department of Mathematics of the L'niversity of Pittsburgh, Professor Foraker and Professor Lockner. of the same department, spoke to the Club later in the year. judging from the progress made this year, we may anticipate a helpful organi- zation in the future that will be of interest to all who realize the importance of the study of mathematics. Fifty vi- OAKHONT HIGH SCHOOL 1544 THE MANDOLIN CLUB HE Mandolin Club has been the smallest musical organization in the school. However the Club's activity has not been retarded by it's size. It has been said that the Mandolin Club is the most advanced of the school's numerous clu-bs. It has been limited to twelve members the greater part of the year but recently several new members were admitted and now the Club consists of twenty- four players. The music for each Friday morning chapel service has been furnished by this group and on a number of other occasions the music for entertainments has come from this source. During the past year the Mandolin Club played at the Christmas Carol Service and also for a Sunday evening service at the Methodist Episcopal Church of Oakmont. The annual school musical -concert again found the Club on it's program and the Club has had the distinction of being the first musical organiza- tion to broadcast it's program by radio. In all, the year has been a most successful one for this organization and the outlook for nex't season is a bright one, as only a few players will have graduated.

The Glee Club to date has made four public appearances. They sang at the Christmas Carol Service, the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Boat Cluh and at the Orchestra Concert.. The numbers were well received at these events. Mr. Eakin deserves the credit for making the filee Club what it is. He has borne with us during the funny spells and worked patiently over the hard places without a word of complaint.

Splendid material was on hand to mould a iirst class team despite the fact that four regulars were lost. Among the sixty men that reported the first week were Captain Reed and lXIcCrory the two letter men upon whom the team was to be built. In addition to these two several subs from the '23 team were on hand and the prospect was none too gloomy. The season opened with Elizabeth at home with Oakmont on the winning en-l of a 36-13 scoreg the team which started the season was as follows: Captain Reed and McKee, forwardsg Hayes, lX'lcCrory, guards: Hogg. center. Although the team which started the game appeared to be a good one, several changes were made in the lineup during th playing of the game and several players showed to advantage-among them being Hood, McCurdy and Nelson. The second game of the season was with the alumni and found two changes in the lineup, Hood and BleCu.rdy starting as forward and center respectively. Though the graduates jumped off to a big lead in the first half Klarshall's charges came hack in the second and grasped a well earned victory by a 37-25 score. The game was a thriller proving that the Varsity boys could not only stand punishment but could come back strong in the face of probable defeat. Fifty-Nine THE PERISCOPE -. The first game away from home was played without the services of Reed and Hood at North Braddock and the locals put up a game fight led by acting Captain McCrory in the face of huge odds and were only nos-ed out by unlucky breaks in the closing stanza-the game ending 24-19. The real treat of the season was served up to the fans in the New Kensington game at home which was nip and tuck throughout the whole forty minutes. Con- sternntion and gloom prevailed in the Oakmont group when Captain Reed was banned from the game a scant two minutes before the end of the final quarter. under the personal foul rule. McKee, who was substitutd for Reed, on the next face ofif took the ball from the jump and dribbled in close to the basket where he was fouled by a New Kensington player. The two points thus garnered via the free throw route gave the Oakmont boys a 14-13 victory which they richly deserved. A snag was encountered in the Hrst league game away from home which was played at Parnassus. lncompetent officials and the poor spoirtsmaanship displayed by Parnassus all aided in the defeat handed the locals. in addition to the mediocre playing fioor used. The home fans realized the stellar brand of basket ball to which they were being treated and they turned out en masse to witnesss the second league game, played with Arnold. The game progressed in much the same manner as did the previous one with New Kensington, the final quarter finding the Oakmont lads trailing by 4 points. Following a lengthy intermission in the fourth quarter dur- ing which an attempt was made to reseat the crowd. the game was resumed, the Arnold boys being given a foul which was called on a technicality of some kind. This counter made Arnold's lead 5 points with about eighty seconds of playing time left. The boys never gave up and encouraged by the marvelous exhibition of sup- port by the cheering section rallied for a final spurt. Goals from the field bv McKee and Braun cut the lead to one point while pandemonium again broke loose. As soon as some semblance of order was restored the game again proceeded with .1 neatly placed goal by Reed, giving Oakmont a slender margin of one point. Spur- red on by the backing of the crowd Reed rose to the heights when he cut loose a long pass to lXlcKee near the basket who again counted, clinching the game shortly before the final gun. After these splendid samples of basket ball the team suffered its first relapse and defeat was spelled out to them in their next home encounter by the tune of 25-17. This was accomplished by the really great passing game put up by the Verona team, also a member of the league. A great game was put up against the champion Tarentum outfit on their floor when they were held to their lowest score of the season, the game ending 45-20. Reed and Nelson put up splendid .games at offense and defense respectively. The next league game was won from Freeport at ho-me, the fine work of Hogg. Reed and Restelli, a new man at the forward position, kept the home team in the lead throughout the game. Hogg and Restelli gathered 10 field goals between them. ' A dull game was lost to Sharpsburg by two points the following Friday, in 1 non-league clash. The poor offense of Oakmont coupled with the repeated attempts at freezing the ball by Sharpsburg paved the way for an Oakmont defeat. Sixty OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL Continuing in the slump of the Sharpsburg game the boys bowed to defeat at the hands of New Kensington before they were able to rally and defeat Parnassns in one of the best games of the season, the game ending in a deserved victory for Gakmont 32-25. Although the Parnassus game resulted in a victory for ns it certainly proved disastrous to our season's record, for as a result of the hard game, our poise was not regained until defeats were suffered at the hands of Arnold, Verona, Tarentuni, Sh-arps-burg and No-rth Braddock, the latter by one point. A return to class was shown when the trip to Elizabeth resulted in a victory by ten points, Reed being responsible for most of Oakmont's tallies, while Braun and McKee added two each from the Held to aid the cause. In a well played game Etna was defeated by a score of 32-20, to close the home season. The next Friday Oakmont invaded Etna and again trounced them by Il even more lopsided score. Captain Reed, Hayes, 1X'lcCnrdy and Braun completed their last game as members of the high school. They are to graduate in june. llllIIIIIIIIIIllIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIlIl RESULTS or GAMES LEAGUE GAMES NON LEAGUE GAMES Opp. 0. H. S. Opip. 0. H.

Staid old men and women, pompous and dignified officials, laughing and shouting boys and girls. all joined in the howling chorus, led by the student section 300 strong, to help celebrate the Uakmont girls' victory in which they soundly and decisively trouneed the Arnold girls in the final game in defense of their title won the previous year. XYhich victory gave them the championship of Section Une of the girls XV. l'. l. .tX. l.. This crowning achievement of the year was the culmination of one of the most successful seasons ever enjoyed hy the Uak- mont team. Too mueh credit cannot he given to Coach llarkin who so ably guided her girls through a seeond championship season aided and seconded hy lllary 'l'hompson, who captained this year's squad. llefore the winning combination had fairly heen assemhled the girls were forced to meet Yerona in the inaugural encounter and determinedly disnlayed their mettle in holding the fast team from that place to the narrow margin of a one point victory. ln the next game the regular league season opened with New Kensington as the home attraction. hut proved to he easy prey for the now smoothly working offense of the Red and Black. .S'i.rty-Il'a'o 95' OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL 'Q Arnold, Tarentum and Fneeport, next in line, followed in the path of New Kensington and met defeat by decisive scores, one non-league game being lost in the meantime to Aspinwall. The Pittsburgh pressmen, following the Freeport game, credited Helen Bissett, veteran forward for Oakmont, with establishing a world's record in scoring field goals in a championship game, she scoring 33 in 30 minutes of actual playing time. She not only scored the highest total for a single game but also enjoyed the distinction of being the holder of the highest individual score for the season, her total reaching 360 in 12 regulation games. .The first upset of the season was handed out to the girls when they were defeated in their return game with New Kensington by a 12-11 score. The girls convincingly came back, however, in their successive games, winning easily from Parnassus, ftwieej, Tarentum, in the return game played there, and again from Freeport. The prolonged winning streak proved disastrous, however, and the girls encountered a slump and lost their return game to Arnold, thus placing the two teams fArnold and Oakmontj in a tie for first place. After lengthy arbitration and discussion, the officials of the valley acceded to the demand of the Arnold team that the tie be played off on the New Kensington Hoof, ignoring Oakmont's plea for a regulation gymnasium in which to play the game. However, as was indicated by the introductory paragraph, despite the handi- cap of the playing floor Oakmont splendidly displayed her superiority in the game and defeated Arnold for the coveted championship and Hrst place trophy by a 23-19 score. In a girls' game, it must be remembered, a score may be counted only when negotiated by a player in the forward zone. Thus it is necessary that the center players get the ball to their forwards before a score may be hung up. Helen Bis- sett's great record, therefore, in a great degree, depended on the great passing game of the center players, Mary Thompson, Hazel Harper. Mildred Gilmore and Viola King. The cooperative and splendid team work of her companion forwards, Margaret Squires and Vera Evans was another ever present factor in our success. The latter in particular materially aided her in the final Arnold clash, while Mar- garet Squires performed consistently all season. ' The unimposing records established by our oppenents speaks splendidly for the perfect guarding of Alice Patrizio and Louise Neely, who were capably sup- plemented when necessary by Helen Evans during the season. Alice Patrizio. guard for the last two years on both champion teams, and Helen Evans, are lost by graduation in June, but despite this handicap the Oakmont girls will take the floor next year in quest of their third straight championship. .IllllIIIIlIIIIIIIIllIIIIlIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllll' RESULTS OF GAMI-is Opp. O.

Excellent teams composing both girls and boys have been fostered in the past and this year an exceptionally large turn out and display of talent greeted Coach Keister at the termination of the Basket Ball season. Oakmont, in having one of the best gymnasiums in the valley, was enabled to start indoor practice full four weeks in advance of the migration to the outdoor courts and it is likely that this advance practice will aid materially in annexing our full share of victories in the scheduled matches.

Wiorking under the handicap of not having a suitable track available for practice, they acquitted themselves in a manner becom- ing an athletic organization of Oakmont High. 'ln almost every instance the junior team, or those under the pound limit of 125 pounds. romped off with the meet, which predicts winning teams for Oakmont in the future. Their best endeavor was to come within three points of winning the Allegheny County Meet from Stowe Township, the winner for seven consecutive years, while they won both meets at Swissv-ale and North Braddock. The Senior or Varsity team did not have such mlarked success but they came within a few points of defeating North Braddock and managed to hold their own against Swissvale, a team with years of experience. The Allegheny County Meet proved to be an additional feather in Oakimont's cap where the members of the Varsity won a place in almost every event entered, Hayes taking second place in the running broad jump against the stiffest competition the county could offer, and George Quelch showed his heels to the entire county Held in the Junior 100 yard dash. Sixty-Nine vt-5-Qi THE PERISCOPE :E-441 After the regular track season, invitations were received by Coach Donaldson for entries in the VVestern Pennsylvania County School Meet at Schenley Oval, and both the closing season meets at Carnegie Tech and Pitt. McKee, Oakmont's representative in the mile race at all three meets. brought home two first and a second, an accoinplishment meriting commendation. .ilIIlllIIIIIIIIlllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllIillllllll' I -A TRACK RECORD rt QS.j Second Pole Vault: :tllraunQ N.

V1 9 fm Q fu 2 5 'Q OAKMONTVHIGH SCHOOL PNK IW' Sewrzty-Ofze 1 'Fl if '11 I 6 T7 u. ..4 OAKMONT HIGH SCHOOL ' Football OACH MARSHALL had sounded the call and eagerly the candidates for the football team of 1924, one of the best our school has had for years, answered. Followed weeks of ardous grinding and the team was finally selected, with the CXCCPUOIIS of a few positions which were not determined until the eve of the opening game. Old man hard luck descended on the shoulders of the coach even before the season opened. Added to the usual practice injuries, Mossman, regular left guard, had his clavical broken in the first game, while several promising recruits were disabled prior to it. Despite these setbacks, however, the team which opened the season proved that it had the punch necessary to travel far on the road to fame, and the opening game was tucked away on the shelf with a victory for Oakmont, Korb getting two touchdowns and Captain Reed the other. The season had hardly started when the strong Swissvale team was encount- ered and held to only four touchdowns. The broken field running of Hayes fea- tured the game, as he consistently gained around the ends and delivered the longest run of the gamie in the shape of a 60 yard run-back of a kickoff. Swissvale was held to one lone touchdown in the first half when for some reason the defense col- lapsed and they piled over for three more before the final whistle. A listless game the following week was won by Sharpsburg on their field. The game was played in the proverbial sea of mud while both teams seemed to be sleep-walking. Sharpsburg aroused a triHe sooner than Oakmont and pushed over a touchdown before they relapsed again. The old time pep was restored in the Crafto-n game. where, fighting against tremendous odds Crafton was held to three touchdowns. Oakmont once advanced the ball to the live yard line where the ball was lost on downs when first down was missed by inches. Hard luck again hit us in the shape of an injury to Joe Reed. who had his leg broken in one of the furious line drives perfected by Crafton. The best game of the year followed with Avalon at home: one of the best teams in the division. The splendid Hght put up by the boys held the crack down river team to one lone touchdown. Every man on the team starred throughout the entire forty minutes of play. Another splendid game was put up by the boys the following week at Coraofpo- lis, where the game ended in a scoreless tie. Vlfith a little more luck the game would have been a victory for Oakmont, Captain Reed breaking away time and again on sparkling end runs. Thompson intercepted a pass near the center of the field and got away for a gain of twenty yards before being nailed near the goal line. The Aspinwall game added little to the prestige of the team, catching them in a dangerous slump. Hogg was the only player who acquitted himself in any way near the style befitting an Oakmont player. The final game was with Arnold, being played at home, the season ending just as it should, in a victory for Oakmont. Korb got away for several sensational runs, two of which resulted in touchdowns. Stewart also played a great game for Oakmont. 91 Seventy- Three THE PERISCOPE Korb suffered all season with faulty ankles and Meckel likewise with injured ribs. I In the final game Thompson suffered a broken nose while Captain Reed received further injury to his left knee with' which he was bothered all season. But don't forget, you Oakmont rooters, when giving out praise to your team that the splendid forward line composed of Quelch, Little Quelch, Hogg, Meckel. Mcffrory, Budd, Cook and their respective uanderstudies, deserves all the credit you may give it, for without their faithful and consistent work your schedule would not show as many wins for -Oakmont. cS.C4'I'C1lI-Si'-f'iU1i1' -realli OAKHONT HIGH SCHOOL r Baseball ONTlNL'lNG the line work of the Track Team the lilase Ball men crept into the limelight as the home schedule opened with Avalon as our guest. A real treat awaited the large crowd which turned out to see the game, in the shape of the smooth working team play. Two new faces appeared on the roster, their owners-joe Hood and llliles Hogg--making their debut at second base and left Held, respectively. Both men acquitted themselves splenclidly, the fielding of Hogg, in fact, was the feature of the game. ln spite of superb pitching by Hayes, and brilliant support by his team mates, Avalon won the game by the narrow mar- gin of two runs, both of which were garnered in the ninth inning after a six-six tie had been contested from the fifth inning without a hit. After the opening defeat the boys came through with successive victories over New Kensington, Glassport and Aspinwall, before losing to Edgewood on the lat- ter's field. Following close on the heels of the Edgewood setback, the third game was lost to Avalon before the team regained its stride and walloped lilassport with a barrage of hits in the final inning. As a result of the splendid season the team was taken to play liiski Prep. at Saltsburg, where they held the highly touted Kiski sluggers to a 7-O victory for Kiski. Abbotts pitching was an introduction to the real art of twirling to most ofthe Kiski players and fanned enough batters to win many a normal ball game. .S'c'z'e1ziy4Fz7z,'c :eb-QE 7' H15 P 1fR1.s'c' 0 5 P I 'die sift, uf, 1 X i aaa Q i?
