Activities 87 Plays, video-tapes, and field trips add zest to English classes Breaking away from the traditional study of grammar and literature, the English classes took the time to put on plays, to make videotapes, to create radio shows, and to go on field trips. The students enjoyed the break and the chance to show off their talents. The students in Mrs. Sue McConnell’s class entertained other students with their performances of both the original and modern versions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Mrs. Linda DeLong’s students also tried their hand at acting by dressing as the characters from the story To Kill a Mockingbird. Other English students displayed their talents by writing Bicentennial minutes, creating radio shows, and working with advertisements. To acquaint her students with the secretarial world, Mrs. Helen Gray took her English students on a field trip to the Northwestern Pennsyl- vania Bank and Trust Company. The students found this educational trip enjoyable. A new edition to the English courses this year was the writing for publication class. This class was an elective course designed to train junior and sophomore students for leadership in the yearbook and school newspaper. The class teaches the students to write using proper journalistic techniques. Above: Paula Carey, Shelly Bums, Julie Wygant, and Mary Martin portrayed the characters - Alexandra Hancock, Stephanie Crawford. Mrs. Dubose, and Maudie Atkinson in To Kill a Mockingbird. Upper Right: John Morelli displays his knowledge of pronouns. Lower Right: Miss JoAnne English demonstrates the use of a memory typewriter for Mrs. Gray's English students. 90 Academics Students acquire skills in reading, speaking, and acting The more practical applications of the theater arts were stressed in Mr. Milliken’s dramatic class. His students not only learned acting techniques, stagecraft, set design, and the art of applying make-up, but also analyzed the backgrounds of the various plays they studied. Class projects included pantomimes, skits, and a mock trial. A thematic program of dramatic readings, music and dance was presented to some of the senior English classes in March. The main purpose of speech class was to expose the students to as many speaking situations as was possible. The class studied radio plays, the use of TV equipment, and the lives of famous orators. They also explored advertising techniques and the use of propaganda. Mr. Mil-liken also conducted a mock trial with his students in speech class, but the emphasis was more on the legal techniques of arguing. A jury consisting of students from study hall was on hand to decide the verdict. The main objectives of Mrs. Jones’ reading classes were to help the students improve their comprehension, enlarge their vocabulary, develop better study habits and improve their reading rates. The reading lab which is considered to be one of the best-equipped reading labs in western Pennsylvania, has controlled readers, skimmers, shadow scopes, tape recorders, and accelerators available for the approximately 115 reading students who come in from study halls each week. The literature used by the students included Word Clues, Skill-texts, The Now Student, Words Are Important, and Skill at a Time.

Lower Left: Mrs. Jones gives individual attention to her reading students in an attempt to help them develop their reading skills to the fullest extent. World affairs stimulate discussions Studying the history of the United States and other countries and their cultures were the main goals of the history department. Political, religious, and economic views of their countries were discussed. Students in Mr. Flath’s POD classes learned about various religions by inviting representatives from the Mormon, Seventh Day Adventist, and the Christian faiths to speak to them and answer their questions. Learning to fill out income tax forms was an interesting and practical experience for POD and economics students. U.S. history students were indirectly celebrating the Bicentennial as they studied the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and other important elements of our country’s past. Anthropology and sociology students were exposed to the ideas and theories about the development of man and his society. Topics such as death, marriage, divorce, and family life, and various problems facing individuals in society were the basis of many discussions in sociology.

Physical science adopted a new text book. One area of study was on fulcrums and levers. Besides the many scientific uses of the bunsen burners students turned them on to warm up” the classrooms. An addition in the physics department was the study of nuclear and atomic physics. This involved the studying of the atoms and their nucleus and how they are related to atomic bombs, power plants and submarines. Students in space science became familiarized with the earth’s atmo- sphere, various stars and their specific characteristics. Also studied was the universe-cosmology. The basic goal of ecology was to make students aware of environmental problems. Once these problems were isolated, possible solutions were discussed. Research involving sound, air, water, and soil tests made the students more aware of their surroundings. Academics 93 Math courses are geared to student abilities. The math department at OCHS was unique because it offered something for students at all levels. Courses ranged from general arithmetic, which satisfied the basic requirements for graduation, to calculus, which prepared future engineers and architects for more advanced study. In between were business arithmetic, Algebra I, plane geometry, geometry, Algebra II, Algebra II - Trig, analysis, and analytical geometry. Students taking a relatively new course, computer science, learned to write and execute computer programs using the BASIC (Beginner All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) language. Students with outstanding abilities in mathematics were encouraged by the Euclid Club and math department to participate in the annual math contest held at Ed in boro.

The business department broadened its courses to include college-bound students. Semiors were free to take any of the business courses, provided there was room in the course. The business department also helped many academic students by introducing a new class — typing and notehand — especially for them. The business students through practical experience were prepared for future jobs. The students learned to work with payroll registers, and FICA tax forms. Courses in typing, shorthand, office practice, accounting and consumer economics helped students develop the abilities and skills needed for future business jobs. To help business students become aware of modem business equipment, an IBM representative demonstrated the use of the memory typewriter. Left: Lori McClelland works at her shorthand under the watchful eye of Miss Bell, president Above: Mary Hynes says, Gee, running a stencil through the mimeograph machine is easy.” Left: While improving their posture in secretarial practice, the girls enjoyed showing off their skill at balancing books. Academic 95 Foreign cultures stressed ’ vnA in language department Many students studied one of the three languages offered this past year - Deutsch, Francais, and esp -nol. One change in the language department was the addition of two new teachers: Mr. Gan- Marzolf - a German teacher, and Mr. William Say - a Spanish teacher. More emphasis was placed on the study of the various cultures in each country. German and French students experienced one facet of for- eign life by preparing and eating foreign dishes for dinner. The Spanish classes made piftatas, many colorful Spanish flags, and also produced a play to learn about Spain. Oral communication was a new method of teaching. This was based more on what one heard and the sounds produced rather than the ability to read. After being able to recognize the different sounds, students then went on to the reading of their individual language. Upper Right: Patsy Van Dyke and Steve Luppino present the fable, The Frog that Blew Herself Up. in Spanish.

Girls’ Chorus and Choir gain musical experience through assemblies Sophomore girls in the Girls’ Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Robert English, spent the year becoming acquainted with the OCHS music department. The Girls’ Chorus combined with the Junior Girls’ Choir for the Christmas program in addition to presenting their own assembly. Their selections ranged from On a Clear Day” to God Made Our Hands” to I Don’t Know How to Love Him.” The Junior Girls’ Choir, under the direction of Mr. Peter J. Nelson, practiced diligently as a preparation for forming next year’s A Cappella. The girls sang ’’Cherish” and The Morning After” at the Thanksgiving assembly. They performed at the Christmas program with the Girls’ Chorus and also presented their annual assembly. Their selections included ’’Eleanor Rigby,” Let It Be Me,” and Superstar.” Accompanists for the two choruses were Lynn Loring, Carol Konetsky, Kathy Rightor, and Lisa Morrison on the piano and Sue McCullen at the organ.

Practices were scheduled for first periods on Fridays, but the group often practiced first periods throughout the week and after school. During November and December, Mixed Ensemble presented several Christmas programs to various community organizations which includ- ed the Adult Schubert Club, The Belles Lettres Club, The Ladies’ Rosary Altar Society, and the Couples’ Club at the First United Presbyterian Church. The program consisted of several selections from the A Cappella’s Christmas repertoire in addition to their own ’’Shepherds Awake!” and ”0 Magnum Myste-rium.” A CAPPELLA - Rowf 1: Tom DeLucia, Alex Swacha, Ken Heckathome, Mark Brzezinski, Dave Koszalka, Neil Johnson, Scott Roberts, Joe Pastor, Tim Fritz, Mike Acklin.

Nelson, worked hard this year in hopes of becoming the best A Cappella our school has ever had. Fifty-one sophomore, junior, and senior boys and fifty-one senior girls strove for perfection as they practiced every day during fifth period and sometimes during activity periods and after school. During the holiday season, the A Cappella presented programs of a Christmas nature at the Elk’s Club and the Belles Lettres Club in addi- tion to presenting A Christmas Gift of Sound” - the annual Christmas program sponsored by the OCHS music department which was open to the public. Most of the year was devoted to building up a repertoire of patriotic songs in observance of the Bicentennial. Their selections ranged from the lusty When Johnny Comes Marching Home” to the reverent God Bless America” to the deeply moving Battle Hymn of the Republic.” A CAPPELLA - Row 1: Pam Duffy, Julie Sopher, Ann Montgomery, Bev Snyder, Linda Ensle, Julie Hovis, Margaret Speer, Joyce Burneisen, Patty Lafferty, Laura Pierce, Kelly Beach, Judy Tenney.

Academics 99 Marching Band participates in community activities The 1975-76 Marching Band won third place at the Autumn Leaf Parade where it competed with over twenty other high school bands. Our band joined fifteen bands for the half-time performance at Kent State University for Band Day on November 8 where the emphasis was on patriotism. The band also marched in the second annual Thanksgiving Parade held here in Oil City. Although it was small in size, the band was big on performance and style. It had one hundred and three members including the Color Guard, the Majorettes, and the ninth graders Mr. English recruited from the Junior High. Mr. Robert English directed the band with the aid of Mrs. Linda DeLong, the Color Guard and Majorette advisor and Mr. James DeLong, the drill and drum instructor. The football half-time show, written by Mr. DeLong, featured the OCHS band’s renditions of That’s Entertainment,” Don’t Rain On My Parade,” and Have You Never Been Mellow?” Above: The band poses in the final formation of the That’s Entertainment” drill.

Academics 101 Talents develop in arts The desire to create led many students into one of the numerous art classes. The wide range of student interests were matched by the various courses offered by the art department. With metal or wood a student in the industrial arts department created any project he desired. If the student preferred working with negatives and prints, he took pho- tography. The 3-D and 2-D art courses encouraged student creativity. The 2-D classes, working with ink, pastels, and oil paints, created sketches and imaginative paintings. The favorite projects in the 3-D art classes included pottery, jewelry, sculpture, and rugs. Each student strove to make his project unique. Right: This is how it’s done,” instructs Mike Bialo. Far Right: The art students diligently sketch model, Sue Elnicki.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Selden, the boys and girls in the chef class learned about food preparation and dishwashing. Mrs. McCool taught the girls in the home economic classes skills related to everyday life such as cooking, child care, sewing, and other projects. The social psychology classes discussed topics and issues that were vital to one’s ability to live in society. Among the topics discussed were death, abortion, racism, and various facets of human relationships.

Academics 103 Physical education is fun Physical education classes were fun as well as educational. While learning the fundamental skills and rules of the various activities, the students also learned teamwork and good sportsmanship. Among the activities the students found enjoyable were tennis, basketball, softball, volleyball, and swimming. This year the girls even enjoyed a little flag football. The sophomores were required to take health. In their health classes, they discussed mental health problems, drug awareness, nutrition, and first aid. The health and physical education classes both worked towards developing both physical and mental fitness. Above: Jake” Hetzel watches Walter Cook demonstrate his curling ability in weight training.

Sophomores were required to take highway safety to learn the various traffic signs, laws, and regulations. Films, book instruction, and worksheets were used to stimulate students to become safe drivers. Driving instructors, Mr. Robert Lynch and Mr. Ross Donahue, took students to Rocky Grove to take their driving tests when they felt the students were fully capable of passing their tests.

Juniors and seniors who showed above-average abilities in their chosen area of instruction were given a chance to work on the Co-Op program. This program enabled talented vocational students to continue their education with on-the-job training. Students at Vo-Tech learned much more than how to fix a leaky washing machine or how to decorate a wedding cake. Through weekly discussions and the leaming-by- doing method, the students received valuable lessons about respect for others, cooperation with their fellow workers, and the dignity of work. More and more students found their own niche at Vo-Tech where they have just begun to discover their own potentials. As Mrs. Ruth Ann Krug, instructor of waiters and waitresses said, The Gateway to Opportunity is there; it is up to the individual to make the most of it.” Academic 107 DREAMING THE DREAM ...

Each having the liberty to express his ideas and knowledge to be expanded in young minds ... Each deriving happiness and satisfaction from knowing that he has contributed to the education of a fellow human being. School board betters educational system The school board, along with Mr. Matchulet and Dr. Heller, were an important part of the school as they worked to provide the best educational possibilities. Mr. Matchulet, as superintendent, supervised the entire school district. Dr. Heller was responsible for the curriculum and helping teachers plan different teaching methods. Right: Mr. Matchulet prepares notes for a school board meeting. Far Right: Dr. Gerald Heller, assistant superintendent, reviews his day’s schedule.

Jones, assistant principal, had a very busy school year. Mr. Jones was in charge of student attendance and discipline, supplies, and maintenance. Mr. Kaufman worked during the summer and the beginning of the school to set up students’ and teachers’ schedules. He also sent out the weekly announcement sheet and arranged the extracurricular activities, school dances, and other school activities. These were only some of the many responsibilities of our principals. We take care of any problem that comes to us,” said Mr. Jones.

Standing: Mr. Dean Shoup, Mr. Lawrence Wiest. Our guidance advisors offered much assistance to various types of students ranging from college-seeking seniors to those with personal problems. Each guidance counselor had assigned students to keep in touch with during the year. The guidance department attracted all those that had intentions of going onto higher education. It was well equipped with information on any two or four-year college, scholarships, grants, possible financial aid, and tests such as PSAT and SAT. The department also had an electronic micro-reader. This was very beneficial in that it helped the student to make his college decision. Upper Right: Mr. Dean Shoup checks a college's entrance requirements for a senior.

Each job entailed much work. Among some of the secretaries’ responsibilities were the distribution of mail, receiving telephone calls, keeping record of each student on file, and helping Mr. Kaufman keep up with his busy schedule.

Faculty 113 Janet O’Keeffe is new department head Teachers, like students, needed some means of guidance. The department heads coordinated and supervised each department. This entailed preparing a departmental budget, ordering needed material, observing teachers in the classroom, and coordinating the curriculum to assure continuity of program at all levels as well as between departments. Mrs. Janet O’Keeffe took over as head of the English department when Miss Margaret Reid retired. Mrs. O’Keeffe’s goal was to help each teacher to be the best. Mr. Bruce McFall commented that one of the advantages of being a department head was that he became acquainted with the total program of the department in both the Junior and Senior High. Being continually buried in work was one of the few disadvantages to Mr. James Husband. Mr. Harry Etzel already had 15 years experience when he applied to become the science department head 15 years ago. He wanted the job because he felt he could add something to the department. Right: Mrs. Janet O’Keeffe prepares herself for her next encounter with the students' parents.

Many teachers also had the added responsibility of coaching, advising, or sponsoring extracurricular activities. The informality allowed the teacher to get to know the student on a more personal basis. Mr. Pat Patterson stated, I’m involved in coaching because I feel football is a great way to teach the value of hard work, sacrifice, and dedication. I’ve seen many boys become better men because of their athletic experiences. I enjoy the challenge of competition and the friends made through athletics.” Above: Mr. David Rea instructs his class on atomic weights. Mr. Gorden Crunk” Porter expressed, The greatest sense of satisfaction in it for me is when someone comes back to visit and mentions that the time I spent with him has helped them in some little way!” Mr. James Smith, coordinator of the Special Olympic Program said, It is most rewarding to help in providing mentally retarded youngsters and adults with competitive activities in which they can compete on an equal basis and win the prize of competition.” Mrs. McConnell commented, Learning has always been an exciting experience for me; I only hope that some of this excitement can be shared with many students.” Upper Right: Miss Margaret Adams says - Time to take showers.” Right: Mr. George Snyder asks himself, What am I doing here?” 116 Faculty Far Le l: Mr. Ross Donahue - My job is backseat driving.” Left: Mr. Robert Lafferty checks to see if his weekly movie is in.

Replacing Mrs. Gail Patterson, Miss Peg Adams put spark into her gym and health classes. She commented that she would like to see each activity in gym be elective. She thought this would give the student an opportunity to participate in activities that interested them. Miss Susan Phillips, a part-time teacher, instructs English to General and Business Students in the afternoons. She enjoyed teaching because she loved literature and the openness in which her students challenged her. Both Miss Adams and Miss Phillips are graduates of OCHS. Upon the new teaching assignment they found their biggest adjustment to have been the transition from being a student to becoming a fellow faculty member. One of the most evident changes they encountered was the decline of school spirit. Mr. Gary Marzolf, the new German teacher came to us from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He taught at both Junior and Senior High. Teaching the well disciplined students found here was different from what he was used to. He found 75 percent of his students to be interested, motivated and friendly. Mr. William Say took over Miss Adiela Garcia’s job as teacher of Spanish II through V. He had previously taught at Oil City Junior High. The better condition of the building and the more mature and behaved students made teaching enjoyable for him.

Faculty 119 Faculty incorporate Bicentennial The Bicentennial celebration gave teachers an opportunity to reinvigorate and enlighten their students with interesting facts of America’s historic past. Mr. Frank Selden encouraged the building of early American projects, while Mrs. Penny McCool instructed her students to make corn husk dolls, a favorite pastime of early American girls. By sponsoring the Bicentennial Minute Contest, the English teachers felt this would encourage their students to write Bicentennial Minutes. Mr. Peter Nelson recognized the Bicentennial by selecting a musical program consisting entirely of patriotic music. A different approach was used by Mr. John Bodamer. He sang Yankee Doodle” on the way to class, which signalled the kids to sharpen pencils and get out their notebooks. into their teaching Upper Right: Mrs. Helen Jones greets her next eager student.

Faculty 121 Most teachers agreed that the relationship between the students and faculty members was a favorable one. Several faculty members felt that mutual respect was the key to this good relationship. Mrs. Karen Amendola said, Students respect teachers who show respect to them. It’s a mutual thing.” Mrs. Janet O’Keeffe added, Basically a good relationship exists because there is mutual respect. However, I sometimes think teachers could exhibit more evidence of the need to serve as examples to teenagers.” Some teachers found the student-teacher relationship here much better than at other schools. Mr. Harry Etzel stated, In comparison to some other schools, our student-teacher situation is excellent!” Mr. Terry Baughman comments, The relationship here is more open than at most schools.” Mr. James Schwab believed that a better relationship would be hard to find anywhere. Mr. John Kaufman, principal, summed up the relationship by saying, I think generally that it is great. Our young people are tops.” Right: Mr. Robert Ziegler checks the gears of a rotary tiller.

Several teachers strove to further their education at various colleges and universities and through practical experiences.

They stepped out of the role of hard-working laborer and enjoyed life away from school. After hours they were no longer subjected to the pressures of school or confronted with problems of the students. They, too, had their own ideas, hobbies, and interests. Meditation proved to be a very interesting and relaxing hobby for Mr. Norman Milliken along with kickboxing and karate. Recreational activities of any sort seemed to enthrall Miss Margaret Adams. She spent her free time scuba diving, hiking, camping, canoeing, traveling, skiing on both water and snow, biking, and even found time to play the flute. Working on cars and electronic equipment seemed to monopolize a lot of Mr. Charles Baum’s weekends while, on the other hand, farmlife takes a great deal of Mr. Flath’s time. Besides being language teachers, Miss Libby Paxton and Miss Pamela Hutley spent hours skiing down the slopes of Peak’n Mountain.

Faculty 127 New grading system provokes differing Teachers expressed many varying views concerning the experimental grading system which was implemented this year. This system featured one failing grade rather than two. The A” and F” grades were weighted in the third six weeks period as an incentive to students to improve their performance and grades. The varying attitudes of the teachers toward the new system were expressed through the following teacher comments: I think students should receive only the grade earned by them. At no time should any grade be weighted to exact a penalty or a reward.” The new system compensates for many inequities in the former grading system. It is a definite improvement.” It will keep students from loafing the third and sixth grading periods.” Any change always brings about some unknowns, but I’m optimistic.” opinions from faculty Upper Left: That’s two points off for chewing chicle in class,” warns Ms. Pamela Hutley.

With a small student enrollment, teachers and students became closer and more concerned with each others problems and personalities. Living in a small city offered the opportunity to know each other as neighbors as well as teacher and student. The teachers participated in extracurricular activities to a much greater extent than do teachers in a metropolitan area. This offered more exposure to the various sides of each others personality. Our teachers came to school with more incentive than merely earning a wage. These attributes provided a better educational environment.

Students were taught the special skills of jobs such as plumbing, auto mechanics, cos-motology, food preparation, and data processing. Some students participated in programs wfhich enabled them to earn money and credits for their diplomas while getting on-the-job training. Far Left: Mrs. Rosalyn Goldberg reviews current news events.
