A Between the covers of a book lie adventure, romance, information, and best of all-friends. Care should be taken when choosing those peo- ple who become dear to us, whether they are real or fictional. Mrs. Boyle, a real friend, has done much to help us select our book associates. Gracious and ready at all times to assist with a special book report or an elusive biography, she has sent innumerable students carefree and unburdened from her volumed domain. With sincere affection we dedicate this Periscope to Mrs. Boyle and her assistants, Miss Elizabeth Brown, Mrs. Page Shaffer and Mrs. W. C. Ecker.

The Administration and Faculty for the boys and girls with little glory awarded them. Our superintendents a fine fellow, Snooper thought as he left the office. I have a great write-up for the Periscope. Now, down the hill for another interview. Before long he skipped up the High School steps, tail beating a tattoo on the empty air. As usual, MRS. KIPP, MR. REITZ'S secretary, had a tasty bone ready to fortify him for his coming ordeal. Munching thoughtfully, Snooper prepared his notebook for the interview. As Mr. Reitz disclosed the highlights of his activities, our Periscope reporter jotted down these interesting notes: received AB. degree, Gettysburg College--postgraduate work at Universities of Chicago and Pittsburghiinstructor, Trust Insur- ance Company-head of Math Department, As- pinwall High School-l3 years principal, O. H. S. --ardent sportsmanlenjoys fishing and hunt- ingimember of various educational organizations and Rotary Club of Oakmont. In way of thanks, Snooper shook paws with Mr. Reitz. Mischievously scattering Mrs. Kipp's papers as he left the office, he thought to himself, Theres a man sincere in his work. His own initiative worn out, Snooper began to follow his nose which was being literally pulled along by an antiseptic odor. This gave him to believe that members of the medical profession lurked nearby. He was right. ln the boardroom surrounded by cotton wads and bottles of different shapes, sizes and smells, were DR. WEBB, the dentist, MRS. WEAVER, the dental hygienist, DR. FUSIA, the school doctor, and our school nurse, MRS. HAMILTON, the four able-bodied guardians of the health of boys and girls in the Cakmont schools. Since Snooper didn't care to be probed and swabbed in the ticklish spots of his tender anatomy, he quietly slunk by and took his place in the main hallway of O. H. S. W. L.

QL Drinking fountains spurted, bulletin boards gasped for air, and door frames groaned over the iabber and hurn of the corridor sentry, which consisted of nine-tenths ot all the O. H. S. students. The other tenth was holding down the curbstones outside the building. Snooper shook his head in disniay, his flop ears flopping in the breeze. Suddenly the terrible din of a gong srnote these sanie ears and everyone seemed to rush in a different direction. Wlien Snooper had recovered froin the Whirlwind, and the last door had banged be- hind the last scurrying student, he tucked his notebook under his arrn and began his inspection of O. H. S. He saw MISS OFF- UTT with her arnis loaded with books, so padded after her to General Math class. However, this was not the principle interest of his doggie brain, and he rneandered to Hooni 9 where MR. GLENN was glibly as- signing a fifty-itern journal to a inath class. Floating out on the wave of resulting groans, Snooper found hirnself inside the door of MISS SHELL!-XBY'S stenography class in lU6, which is the hoine of the Oak Leat. Peering over the shoulder of a busy shorthand stu- dent, he perceived a page of curls and quirks that extended beyond even his imagination. Deciding that this was too niuch for his addled head, he staggered toward the clackety-clacking noise of typewriters in MISS SACKTER'S roorn. The din niade his head spin so that his one thought was to escape. One glance through the open door ot 207 could niean only one thingiMISS BARBER was holding another Caesar-session with her Latin class.

An unseen cornniotion issued from the Periscope head- quarters, but not feeling quite up to the ob! vious job which presented itself, Snooper decided he was needed elsewhere and left the stall to wallow in its own literary despair. Glaucing furtively across the hall to see if anyone was looking, our friend crept UP the DOWN stairs. reached the top safely and innocently dropped into MISS HARTEH'S rooin, 201. There she was all alone, an English book in one hand and a French book in the other, trying to think in both languages at once. Snooper had quite a good lrish broguo hiinself and wanted to stay awhile, but he had to complete his survey. A short stop in MR. EDMISTON'S room rather shocked hiin. Had all the students in that freshman rooin gone Sherlock Holmesu? No, they were only looking for X, as so niany boys and girls have done in years gone by. A bit perplexed, the little doggie soineliow got out of the rnaze and ran plumb into MISS RAY. who asked hiin if he liked his geornetry plane or solid. He just gulped, then dodged into MR. McCURDY'S room. Horrors! Here a grisly murder trial was being hold by the Civics class. For a mock trial it certainly was convincing, and Snoop- er didn't wish to get in the way of the accusing finger of the D. A., so he softly closed the door and sped down to COACH SHUKER'S history class. His ears fairly stood on end on hearing the furious debate which threatened to turn into a riot any min- ute. The calm functioning of MR. MAR- SHALL'S P. O. D. class of dignified 1?l seniors relieved his tense nerves somewhat and citing Day DAN MCCURDY, AB., lVl.Ed. D. LEVWS Sl-IUKER, HSS., Bid. CHARLES S.

Dear teacher was Good mornina Brother ionos- inq all her Enqlish l and lV pupils in her cheerful fashion, so Snooper assumed that all was well and bounced on up to MISS SHOTT'S sophomore English class. There he was most hilariously received, hut after three minutes of danqlinq participles he left, feeling somewhat like one himself. Our little friend was tempted to pass up MRS. FOSTER'S lunior Enqlish room, but his Peri- scope friends wouldn't like that so he ven- tured in. Cr rather, tried to, for the room was jammed riqht up to the door in themes, hook reports, and notebooks. Shakina his head in canine dismay, Snoopf er closed the door and was decidina his next stop, when a racket arose in the lower hall. He made a hee-line for the steps and skid' ding to a stop, poked his head throuah the railinqs. Down below, a mass of jahhorina students was leayinq the huildinq, slamminti doors with qlass-shatterina hanas that hrouqht Hshhh-ina teachers to their doors. Hey, down there, Snooper lvarked, Whats up? We're qoinq to cooking class, the girls called hack, MISS BEATTIE is lettina us make pies today. Come on, Snooper, lim Baker shouted, Vlfe fellows are aoina up to manual traininalu But Snooper, think- inq of what MR. PORTER and a liuzz saw could do to his tail, declined the offer. An' otherrcommotion in the auditorium proved tha MISS Moors Orchestra mid MR. WAG- EIL'S hand were collectina their instruf 'ents preparatory to their daily journey to he Primary Building.

MCCRACKEN was cheer- ing a vigorous game of basket-ball, While MISS GILLESPIE'S girls stood huddled about the door to the locker-room waiting for the key. Everyone wanted that ball at the same time. Once it whizzed past Snooper's left ear causing it to shiver in the icy blast. This is no place for me, said Snooper to himself. Guess l'll see what MISS WHITE'S folks are doing. Orderly confusion reigned there in the midst of drawings, clay models, make-up materials, and party fixings of all kinds. How does she do it? sighed our news-hound. A bit dazed at so much ac- tivity, he bumped against the door of Room 7 and was admitted by the ghost of MR. WOOD in the midst of balancing an equa- tion. A loud noise interrupted Snooper's visit here and sent him scurrying to the lab where MR. KEISTER and the chemistry class were gathering up the debris from the latest explosion. Fearing another such devasta- tion, he rushed up the stairs hunting an open door. This was to MR. MASTER'S room. Snooper dove into the first hiding place that presented itself. Sadly enough this was a container already full of the dissected parts of frogs fallen prey to the biology class. Again he made an exit of almost phenome- nal velocity and somehow managed to get back home in Room lOl before he dropped exhausted near his protecting deity, the Periscope Staff. That's enough reporting for ine, he gasped. From here on, folks, you do your own writing. 'Ll' .' LV v .

Then, as I walked through the halls, the wondering faces of the confused freshmen brought me down a peg or two. It made me realize that I was once one, too. November 7-We played Verona today. Beat 'em, too. It was a thrilling game! The day was rainy and sloppyg nevertheless, both sides of the field were lined with people. The team looked as if they had been in a mud beauty- bath. As I watched them play, a little shiver went down my back. I realized this was prob- ably my last O. H. S. football game. And Oakmont won the game! December 8-All I heard today in school was war! war! Sunday the laps bombed Pearl Harbor and today young and old are discus- sing it. Excitement permeated all the class- rooms. We took every opportunity to talk about the war and evade our regular work. Only time will tell what the war will mean to us young people. February 3- Ring out the old, ring in the new. The last lap of school has begun. He- port cards are out and our old marks, mistakes and pleasures are behind us. March 7-My classmates and I have been sit- ting on pins and needles. Why? Because we've been waiting for Mr. Shuker to announce the cast of the Senior Class Play, Headed for Eden. Today it happened! O joy! I'm in it. March 10-In three more months I will don the stately black cap and gown and walk across the stage to receive my diploma! Then I will no longer be a part of O. H. S., but one of that great parade of youth crowding our offices, have that thrill of being an upperclassman, of factories, and colleges today. I'll never again receiving my class ring, of starting to master the Parlez-vous and the H:SO- subjects, and of belonging to clubs! Oh, dear! It gives me a queer feeling. I will always treasure my memo- ries of those fun packed years. -Margaret Swartwood, '42 A Senior Reminisces What's that? Oh, you want me to tell you about my high school days? All right, son. That was a long time ago, but since you are about to enter high school, I'll try to remember some of the highlights of my four-year career at old O. H. S. It was way back in 1938, long before you were born, when a group of small, frightened masses of protoplasm that was to be the class of '42 entered upon the richest four years of their lives. Many of that class are dead, others are in unknown places, but a few I have been able to keep track of. For instance, several are now very successful. Tom Hill is first trumpet in the NBC Symphony Orchestra: Sammy Antoon has his own band: Eddy Flowers coaches football at Fordham: I. Donaldson has an important government position: most of the girls are hap- pily marriecl--in fact, you know some of their offspring, such as Ioe Luciana, Ir.-Ioe Sr. married one of the best girls in the class. There are some that are not so successful: Al Gunn is a hermit somewhere in the Tennessee hills. He renounced society as a whole and tries to shoot anyone who comes near him. But let's get back to my story. One thing that made high school so enioyable for me was my music activities. I started playing the clar- inet in both the band and the orchestra when I was a sophomore. Our director, Mr. Wagen- seil, has become very famous--he is the director of the Marine Band and has written several very famous marches. Besides being a musician--or rather trying to be onell remember much more work and fun in extra-curricular activities. I'll never forget our yearbook, the Periscope-I was literary editor of the twenty-fifth edition of that masterpiece. Nancy Reed was editor-in-chief, and now she is a famous authoress. You've read some of her books, haven't you? Our school paper, the Oak Leaf, was also a thrill, and although I wasn't on that staff I remember the anticipation of everyone for the next issue. The school plays and dances were highlights to us all. Then we had our choice of clubs, too. I chose those that interested me, the Dramatic, Math, Science, and French clubs. What picnics we had at the end of the yearl Son, you'll be disappointed if you don't join a club or two. And then I became a senior! I really started living that year. Besides trying to keep up my scholastic record, I went out for the varsity bas- ketball team. It was fun even watching the games from the bench-no, I didn't make the first team, buttltblayed enough to get a letter. I can't say much for the success of the team but we had our fun, and everyone soon forgot our misfortunes. My boy, you are about to enter on a four- year voyage of fun, excitement, and, naturally, some worries. Take the advice of an old man, and don't let it go by without getting the best you can out of fit. When you're as old as I am, you'll know why am telling you this. '. , 4 l-John Short, '42 Life's Little Temptations I'm quite sure I'm not the only one To have an inner desire To do the thing I shouldn't do, Something like, oh-starting a fire Under the school. Someday when the teacher scolds me I'm going to cry right out loud. She can't humiliate me, Especially, in front of a crowd Who might laugh. Some morning when NCrDDY opens the door, There I'll bei-sleeping, Because one of these nights I'm going to allow The school house to have charge of my keeping. Won't he be surprised? When there's a speaker in assembly, I'm going to whistle a tune. What would Mr. Reitz think of me? He'd kick me out right soon, But I wouldn't go. During some study period I'm going to talk all the time, And not just in a whisper either, You can bet your bottom dime. You can't lose. Oh, I'll probably not do any of these things, So you may rest in peace. But I'm going to be bad someday Before my life does cease. It's that inner desire. -Peggy Marshall, '42 I A Library Permit Tells Its Story Oh, hello, therel1Glad to see you-- My name's Ieep and I'm a library permit. I used to work at O. H. S., but now I'm retired. What line of work did I do there? Oh, I was an excuse for a student who didn't want to sit through the eighth period study hall. Here's what happened: It was a day last year in May-one of the finest we had all year---and I was next in line for duty. I was young then----just starting on my careerland well-fitted to do my duty. The job I was to do was a disgrace to my pro- fession, although I didn't know it then. As I was saying, there I was waiting patiently, when in comes Iohnnie Iones. In the usual high school manner---that is, thinking of no one's feelings --he ripped me from the pad so violently that he tore my upper-left corner, as you can plainly see. After he had marred my appear- ance by some heavy, illegible writing and se- . They'll Do Yes, sir, it never failsl People invariably do those little things that get under the other fellow's skin. Even a senior's life is not immune to these irksome epi- sodes. For instance, when the bell is going to ring in half a minute, you just have to get upstairs to English class on time. tSome of these teach- ers are disgustingly insistent that you get to class on time or else bring an excusell And what happens? That's right: you come upon one of those cozy groups of students, loitering in the hall and discussing the affairs of the world. They know you can't get by and that you might be late, but, nevertheless-THEY'Ll.. DO IT EVERY TIME. After three or four days with no heavy home- work, you plan a little fun for your spare time cured the English teacher's signature, we were on our way-that is, Iohnnie Iones and I. We walked down Pennsylvania Avenue, and when we got to the bottom, turned left instead of right. I tried to tell him, but he wouldn't listen to me. As a matter of fact, I don't be- lieve he even heard me. Well, we went to Stone's and had a coke-that is, Iohnnie had the coke-he didn't offer me one. We chewed the fat awhile, and then started back. When Iohnnie handed me to the teacher, I had my fingers crossed, for I didn't think we could get away with it. My worries were shortlived, for we did get away with it. Yet, sometimes Ihwtsh we hadn't, for my conscience has both- ered me ever since. I wonder how Iohnnie feels. Well, sir, that's my story, and I only wish the others could tell theirs1what strange stories you would hear! I, -Joe Luciana, '42 It Every Time the following night. You trip gaily to school the next day anticipating the evening's festivities, but as the day goes by, you gradually and sadly return to your former opinion of your teachers. They've crossed you up again! You don't see how they could have dreamed up so many tests and fancy assignments all at the same time, but--they CAN and WILL do it every time.

It was just another ordinary school day. I started off by having my usual race against Old Man Time. With the last bell still echoing, I slid into lO5 and having deposited my books on my desk, returned to the hall to retrieve my mitts. In my lone morning study hall I vainly tried to prepare ALL my neglected lessons. At the Bzz of Old Faithful I faced Miss Barber for a session of Latin ll. The room, whispering scornfully, jeered at me, You don't know your lesson: she's sure to call on you. With book in hand and eyes glued on Miss Barber's face, I waited for her to pronounce the next name, Trembling all over, I heaved a sigh of relief as she spoke to someone across the room. The next two periods in typing and shorthand were quite uneventful. The incessant tapping of the keys and endless upside down, lop-sided short- hand lines characterized these two intervals. My lunch hour was divided among answering Mother's questions, studying American history, and trying to regain my lost energy with the restoring vitamins in a sandwich and a glass of milk. Mr. Muzzey, the historian for the O. H. S. juniors, was then thoroughly and cruelly dis- cussed by Mr. Shuker and his fifth period class. This hectic session was succeeded by the as- sembly period which, in our home room, meant time for notes, gum chewing contests, debates on the war, and an amateur hour. My seventh period was spent in Mrs. Foster's English class where themes and book reports were OALMLY announced in the same breath. These, as any junior will verify, mean plenty of hard work. To maneuver an army of periods and commas through these things is like trying to control the spinning in my head. New worries came in the next period gym class where Miss Gil- lespie withstood the volley of lost gym shoes, forgotten keys, and nightmares of buttonless gym suits. Home again, home again, was our chant as we turned our faces once more toward our domiciles. Thus, dear Diary, you see this ''should-be-superstitious'' day was just normal, junior routine. -Aluera Honsperger, '43 A Iunior Text Book Speaks Its Mind The life of a history textbook is certainly hard, for here I am again, tossed into a corner with HIS grimy old cap and HIS muddy boots. Whew, but it's hot in here! That Iunior has stuffed me with a month's supply of paper that he'Il probably never use because the edges are get- ting ragged. I suppose I'll be blamed for that, among other things. Can I help it if I get hurled across rooms and dropped into puddles? Gosh, I wish I could stretch my binding. Oh, oh, here comes that Iunior again-I thought it was about time for me to be tripped over. Oooopsl I never met such big feet in all my life! Heavens alive, I really think he's going to pick me up! Maybe he's reformed . . . Nope, no danger of that . . . it was his hat he wanted: he's going to the movies. How any boy could have the nerve to drag me home, throw me around, and then not even look at me, is more than I can see. Well, the Iunior's gone, but here comes Iunior's mother to pick me up. Really, I don't mind her so much, for she always handles my broken binding carefully, but if only she would An Ode to a Iunior She is a Iunior and a blight: She raids the ice box late at night. When for a snack her brother's sent, To his dismay' the 1arder's spent. She rises late each chilly morn Her sweet disposition frayed and torn. Her books she snatchesg to the door she tears. If they're in the way, mort a ses freres - But to the dismay of one and all, She's left her war paint in the hall, And though I'm late, I climb the stair, To Search until I find it there. Before I get her off to school, I'll surely break each tardy rule-l Then-at school when she's good and moodyl She treats me like she would Yehudil -Frank Heinrichs, '45 CI-IER brotherl Miss Ray's proteges go to work . . . The library intrigues young and old. remember where she puts me. Ten-to-one, Iunior won't be able to find me in the morn- ing, and then he'll be late for school. Ho-hum. At least, if I'm bored I can read the lunior's notes. Here's one from lane . . . Dear Iohn- nie . . . that girl can find more ways of saying the same thing! There are some notes in me from Mary, too. Wow, if lane ever found that out! . . . Well, Iohnnie'd squirm out some way. He'd probably blame that on me, too. Really, I can't say that I enjoy being in this bookshelf. I'm afraid someone might want to read me, and I'd be so embarrassed if he should see my dog- eared pages. But, I guess there's no danger of that. No one in his right mind would venture past my mud-stained cover. Even the bool:- worms seem to prefer Shakespeare, old and tough as he is. That Iunior certainly has been a bit rough with me. But after all, I do have a number of pretty bothersome dates in my pages. I hope SOMEDAY I will belong to a Iunior who likes history books IUST A LITTLE. -Eleanor Jo Heinrichs, '43 ' ,I ' fy ,Q N KY Xu Y II .Q 'x IH S Q EX I .

Carson, R, As Told by an Eavesdropper A huddle of school books talking in Mr. Mc- Curdy's room made such a hubbub that my curiosity succumbed to eavesdropping. Peep- ing over the shoulder of the World History, which was acting as secretary of the meeting, I saw it title a new page of the minutes, History ot the Sophomore Class of l942. With a queru- lous look that perfect lady, the English book, said that it was difficult tor her to understand what the sophomores were saying because of so many slang expressions. Por example, explained the fattest diction- ary in the school, what does lac Thompson F mean when she says Glory be ? The World History pages asked, Do you ' remember when she tried to tell the students that the CORSET revolutionized medieval wom- en's apparel, when everybody knew that the answer was the BUTTON? Mysterious Mr. X of Algebra I agreed with the sensible Civics text that we sophs should have worked harder in ALL those first year classes. Mais ouil exclaimed the French 1ivres simultaneously. Of course there ARE sophomore scholars, N admitted the Plane Geometry volume. Mary McGeorge has merited straight A's and Mary Maddox, Chuck Slagle, and Frank are some other brainy sophomores. For the first time Caesar spoke, his worthy opponents, Mesdames, the books, There are a precious few who out studying. While Caesar talked, peratedly brushed aside the Latin persisted in prancing at his Up piped the musical notes, A number of sophomores are excellent musicians. Tommy Connelly tromboning and those 'walsy' pals, Bud Derr and Walt Curran, tooting on their horns, make a nice noise. Laura lean Ward's voice is lovelier every year. She was one of those who went to the Music Festival. Iune Householder, who also went, has a nice voice, and plays the cornet and the bells. One of the books from Miss White's room complimented our class by saying that as a whole, we were interested in the fine arts, al- though Irene Phillips, Tom Helwig, and Ruth Thrasher are the only diligent artists. The Biology and General Science text books talked of incidents during class periods. It seems that Georgia Lee was often the object of Mr. Wood's and Mr. Master's jokes. The one act plays of the year were talking over our possibilities as actors. Mary Louise Babich was suggested because of the way she deliv- ered a speech in English class. Marilyn Miles, Elly Stittich, and Mary Lou Fetten had histrionic possibilities, too. The loud voice of a volume about sports boomed, Don't forget the athletes! In football ,ewey Foust and Ed Mosakowski starred. Goal icker Bill McKim wins plenty of praise. The junior varsity basketball team could not have on any laurels had it not been for sopho- or . this point I could no longer keep from ' rrupting. l stepped into the center of the owd, to the amazement of the garrulous print- e pages, and shouted, Hurrah for the class o '44! -Sue Schmidt, '44 Room 7-Mr. Keister First Row: V.

Adding two ends and a center to these lettermen, Mr. Shuker built a speedy offense and a poweriul detense. He introduced a valuable spread formation. ln a practice game with Wilkinsburg, one of the best teams in the valley, Mr. Shuker proved to the school that he had a champion- ship team. This game also proved that Oak- mont had one of the best back fields it had ever had. Eddie Flowers, last year's most valuable player, played fullback. Don Eaton and Her- man Celo, two haltbacks who really knew their football, and Eddie Mosakowski, a sophomore, gwlfff f completed our backfield. With such a line, Oakmont went into the season against a tough schedule. However, our gridiron heroes lost only two games, one by luck against Penn High, and the other to a more powerful team. Verona, our bitter rival, was snowed under by our Red and Black invaders, to complete a victorious season. Cn December 4, the Lion's Club entertained our conquering heroes and their friends at a turkey banquet. On this occasion Mike Trocki received a trophy for being the most valuable player. Eddie Flowers won honorable mention on the W. P. l. A. L. All-Scholastic team. ln- , de d, it wasa season well worth remembering.

Played It Oakmont's basketball team had some hard luck this season. Although Coach Shuker tried to juggle them into a winning combination, things just didn't click. The quintet that started the season was composed of Edmiston at center, Smidtke and Shimpeno as guards, and Henderson and Luciana as forwards. ln the middle of the season Mr. Shuker brought Skinner and Mosakowski from the lunior Var- sity to the Varsity at center and guard respec- tively. He also put Eaton at forward. But near the end of the season Eaton injured his ankle and Henderson went to the first string again. Perhaps the best exhibition of basketball came during the first half of the Etna game. The boys stopped their brilliant opponents cold, only to lose the game in the fourth quarter. At the end of the season the faculty played a very strenuous game with the varsity. This game was filled with thrills and spills and plenty of laughs. Since the scorekeepers were paid by the faculty, nobody knows what the real score was. The Iunior Varsity had better luck than the Varsity, losing only six games. ln the Verona game, even though so many of our boys went out on fouls that for the remaining few minutes the Red and Black had only four players, they brought home the bacon. During these few minutes, Verona didn't score a point. These boys look very promising, and should be a nucleus for a great team next year. This year Oakmont started a Iunior High School team composed of boys from the sev- enth, eighth, and ninth grades. Coached by Mr. McCracken, these fellows will be fine material for the varsity some day. As the Score Board Looked O.H.S. ..... . O.H.S. ..... . O.H.S. ..... . O.H.S. ..... . O.H.S. ..... .

Euclid Would be Proud of Both of These Clubs True to those characteristics for which they were chosen, scholarship, honor, and good sportsmanship, the members of the American Legion Medal Award Club have been boost- ers of several worthy campaigns. Under the direction of Mr. Edmiston this club celebrates the third anniversary of its Save School Sup- plies campaign. lt has also helped Uncle Sam boost the morale of his soldiers by sponsoring a drive for collecting books to send to army camps. Beside this defense service these boys and girls have contributed their share to the pleasure of O. H. S. by sponsoring the Artu- istice Day program and the Alma Club dance. The thirty-seven members of the Math Club or Euclidicm Society studied math at quite a different angle than that of the classroom and in doing so found the subject tangent to loads of fun. If Euclid could see what a good job they do at keeping up with the facts and figures, he would be proud to lend his name to this organization which strives for the enjoyment and mastery of the art to which he dedicated all his efforts.

Girl Reserves Give Service The Oakmont Girl Reserves with its group of one hundred ten busy members has completed another profitable year of friendly service and interesting pastime. Among their numerous activities was a marionette show in October, the proceeds of which were used to finance the club for its year's special meetings. After their usual Christmas party and celebration, the Girl Be- serves pitched in wholeheartedly to help with Bed Cross work. A worthwhile aiin of the Girl Reserves is to foster a closer relationship between themselves and girls of other races, other countries, and other beliefs. To this purpose they held a meet- ing at which the speaker was Miss Chopin from South America, who had much enlightening information to offer. The Girl Reserves are to be congratulated on their efforts toward good fellowship and good will. MEMBERS First Pictinc: First Bow: M. Wood, D. Learn, M. Amann, B. Rupert, B. Dickinson, C. Grazicr.

The story revolves around a quarantined sorority house full of girls who want to get out and surrounded by boys who wish to get in. The quarantine keeps the persnickety house mother, Mrs. Smith CK. McCormickl from firing two house boys, Gordon CG. Mellinl and Ron- ald CR. Carlbergl, who are in love with sorority sisters, Gloria Cl... Coatesl and Beryl CD. Engell. The elopement plans of Edythe CM. Maddox? were thwarted by the quarantine, however, De- borah CI. Gordonl is delighted because the same situation solved her problem with Howard Cl. Smithl. Constantly endeavoring to enter are Howard, Finlay CH. Mitchelll, and Elliot CC. Slaglel, who loves the nurse, Lela Dunn CB. Leel. The play terminates in Mrs. Smith's rec- onciliation to the engagements of the five couples, and her own engagement to Dr. Leon Atwell CD. Weaverl. The first picture shows nebby Ronald, try- ing to dissuade Edythe from her elopement with Finlay. Next, Edythe and Deborah try not to awaken the sleeping house boys who do not realize that they are trying to slip a note to Edythe's fiance. ln the third picture, Gordon tussles with Finlay who has gained illegal entry to the quarantined house. Watching them is Gloria. ln the fourth, before the arrival of a real nurse, Elliot disguises himself as a nurse to get in the house. Entertaining him are the unsus- pecting house mother and Deborah. And, last- ly, at the end of the play, we have a gathering of the engaged couples who include the entire cast. n.ir Dramatic Club Members: Klfirst Picturel Bottom Row: H. I. Robbeloth, D.

Amateur Dramatics The Helen Hayes and Maurice Evans ot Oak- mont High School have certainly kept the Senior Dramatic Club humming right along this year. One of their teatured presentations was the play, Campus Ouarantinef' a delightful com- cdy which was presented in February. A will- ing force oi director, cast, stage-hands, prop- erty men, and ticket sellers worked feverishly tor weeks, and were duly awarded with a full house on their big night. Combining its dues and the proceeds irom its plays, this club man- ages to rent its own scenery and costumes, to buy its own playbooks, and to print its own tickets. This year the club is to be commended are Popular at O. H. S. tor its project ot sending twenty subscriptions of Readers Digest to Oakmont boys in various military camps. The Iunior Dramatic Club ot thirty-tour active members makes an interesting hobby oi pre- senting one-act plays at its meetings. These programs are so arranged that every member is included in the cast of at least one dramatic presentation. As well as bringing out dramatic ability, this club is responsible tor many good times. Iust ask someone who was present at their annual picnic, which closes a season oi theatrical enjoyment. lnrnot Dttznicitic Club Members: tl-'irst Picture? Standing: Y. McGough. Seated: I. Marwood, M.

Hi -Y and Le Cercle Have Interesting Meetings To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. This, the purpose of the Hi-Y Club, has greatly raised the standards of sportsmanship and clean living in our school. This purpose has been sincerely upheld by an active group of forty high school boys who mix the spirit of fun with their earnest endeavor to foster good fellowship in this community. Le Cercle Francais, composed of forty mem- bers, lends itself to a whirl of French fun. Among its numerous activities was the presentation of a gutgnol Kpuppet show to those of us qui ne comprennent pas le francaisul, a festival des chansonsf' and a Battle of the Sexes en fran- cais. One of the highlights was the spon- soring of a French movie in May. The club is proud to announce that several of its mem- bers belong to the Alliance Francaise. Any- one could safely say that Le Cercle is one of the most active clubs in O. H. S., n'est-ce-pas, mes amis? Lo Cercle: KFirst Picture? Bottom Row: L. Kennedy, B. Lee, M. Costello, E. Bostley.

Well, you know it has tour wheels with tires, and you're not even sure of that, now. Then join the Traffic Safety Club. Characteristic of Traffic Club meetings are discussions of driving and traffic rules. Many drivers of tomorrow bene- fit greatly by the advice given at these meet- ings for they air the many troublesome parts of a car which often produce rather disturbing symptoms. Besides driving, the club's interest tends to hiking and picnics, one of which ter- minated a year of brakes, clutches, and fun. The Commercial Club is quite practical in its purpose of helping to prepare its members for successful careers. Combining pleasure with business, this group of enthusiastic members improves their knowledge of the commercial field and also manages to squeeze quite a bit of pleasure from their rows of figures and their scribblings of shorthand. Their annual picnic is always a great occasion, but the club almost hates to see it come, because it marks the end of a busy and happy year. Commercial Club Members: flfirst Picturel Seated: S.

Music Both Instrumental and Vocal Rank High Nearly every sixth period Miss Moot is busily engaged in directing the orchestra to follow me and to accent the first beat of the meas- ure. In order to master the music for the many special occasions, such as the dramatic productions, or commencement activities, the members of this musical ensemble spend many hours striving to attain the heights aspired by their director. With violins singing to the ac- companiment oi the rest of the orchestra the enchanting lilt of a waltz suddenly bursts into the pulse-quickening tempo of a presto for a glorious climax. Each musician is sorry when practice has ceased but looks forward eagerly to the next rhythm seance. The festivals of the Pennsylvania School Music Association always cause a great stir among the musical-minded of O. H. S. This year was no exception. The vocal honors were carried away by Gilbert, George, Fred, Mar- garet, Laura lean, Nancy, and Iune. A severe attack of tonsilitis kept Rena from attending the choral festival, but she was able to go to the orchestra fete with lohn and M. I. The band festivities called forth the talents of Owen and Bill. If these young people keep up their work, they will go far in the world of music.

To You From the Staff When at the end of a busy year the Peri- scope staff paused to count its many blessinqs, they found that they owed a debt of grati- tude to many willinq workers.

Last but not least, the staff ex- tends its qrateful thanks to the many patrons and advertisers who contributed financially to its success, and to YOU, the student body who helped to put it over.

Listen, my children, and you shall hear Footsteps coming from far and near, For the Iunior meeting is scheduled today. So, let's enter the hall without delay. On the platform stands the president, grand, Calling the meeting to order, with gavel in hand. After the minutes are read and approved by all An ambitious Iunior moves the class have a ball. But a skeptic believes the dance can wait, And the crowd rises up in a heated debate. A fellow, named Harry, has obtained the floor But talks so long, he becomes a bore. He speaks about dues and enlarging the band. And discusses everything but the question at hand. Another type of Iunior who graces the place, Has a bored expression all over his face. He seldom listens to what goes on, And contributes nothing but an impolite yawn. Then, there is Gertie, who whispers and giggles, And drives the audience wild with her incessant wiggles. A Iunior, named Ioe, has little to say. But when the vote is taken, he always says, Nay . There are motions pending and amendments, too, And the president is wondering what to do. But before he knows lt, the bell has rung, And the end of the meeting has finally come. -Patsy Dawkins, '43 '78 F .
