By fleclicating to them this hook into which we have put our thoughts, our ideals, and our memories, We can in ll small way show who comes Hrst in our llearts. And after all, who deserves more credit than they! The memories of our days in Penn High will linger forever in our hearts. Ir is hcrc that we have had the opportunity to develop our individual Personalities. Here wc have built our foundation for thc future. We have learned to make our own decisions, to judgn' fairly, and to support that which is for the common good. We have Prepared for lifc' hy living. AND NOW WE GRADUATE Remember that s l ow, reluctant stroll up the sidewalk and into school and the old bulletin boarcl hanging out there on the Hag pole? That used to be the Hrst thing Well sec on our Way to school. Usually We would stop and chat for a while with some friend before entering those cloors Which, once closed, would stay closed to us for the nc-xt several hours. Or, maybe, if we delayed too long and were late, it would be necessary for us to drop into M1'. Crowther's office to explain. Then Weld go up to our home room either to cram four periods of work into two minutes of intense study or sleepily to gossip away the few minutes before chapel, which, if we were lucky, came every Thursday. Remember how, at the bt-ll, every- one would grab his books nucl rush out into the hallsg some in a hurry to get to their next class, but most just to gather in little groups to have il few words before compellccl by the bell to seek their class rooms. By the second period we were usually ready to settle clown, and the work for rhe clay was begun. The faculty gave us knowlcnlge anal gulclecl our various activities throughout our school life. We shall always appreciate their in- terest in our education. 44 I A. BRUCE DENNISTON B.S. University of Pittsburgh M.A. University of Pittsburgh Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh Superintendent of School: TO THE CLASS OF 1944: Today we Hncl ourselves in a world of heroism. After two decades of sophistication, depression and intellectual cynicism, we Hntl that deep tlown within our youth there is ll quality of responsibility and ti capacity to think and zuljust for himself that has, untler the stress of battle, Pro- duced ll spirit of valor unsurpassed hy any other nation. One army Officer has expressed it as follows: Our boys have it, and I think it is something that they get naturally Y-something they get just by growing up in Americaf' l trust that the generation which you represent may match this physical heroism of war with a moral heroism of informed and tlevotetl citizenship in the years following the war. Our nation, as well as all nations of the world. needs men and women of character and courage, of capacity and high purpose, who will align themselves with those forces which promote the growth ancl freedom of human values.

Most members of the class of 1944 were born in the era of plenty before 1929. Your school days were mostly spent during the great depression. In your sophomore year Pearl Harborn made the headlines. Since then we have had war with increasing fury. All normal prospects for our boys have disappeared. Our alumni are to be found in the armed services on every con- tinent. A number of your classmates have ujoined upf, after completing their first semester. Most of the remain- ing boys will be in uniform before snow flies again. Our girls will be doing their part in the war effort. When peace again comes to this country you will look back to your high school days with memories which will grow sweeter as time goes by.

DAYS Let memories drift back to the year 1940 and the month September when we were be- wildered freshmen wandering through the halls of Penn High and constantly getting into the wrong rooms. For nine months we labored over our Latin and algebra, There were many nights that We spent worrying about those Problems and translations we couldnlt get. The main social event of our freshman year was the class Party held in the gym. We decorated the gym to give the appearance of a bazaar, and, along both sides, we arranged booths containing everything from dart games to fortune tellers. If noise is any indication of success, this party hit an all-time high! Then came September, 1941. We were now considered members of senior high school, and suddenly we began to realize that it required more actual work to get the good grades we had received our freshman year. Numerous activities such as football games, dances, and Parties encroached upon our study timeg and our grades did not always come up to family expectations. Never a dull moment! Our parents began to wonder if we were ever going to stay home for just one evening. Almost before we knew it, it was time for exams, and then school was over for another three months. Three months' vacation! What were we going to dol Sleep-sleep-and well-sleep some more! Next September rolled around in no time at all. Since we were juniors, we could now sit upstairs in the auditorium. Our class was organized, and we began our plans for the , VCZII' S GCUVIUCS. l ln our sophomore year, We didn't seem to notice the effects of the war, but it made a number of changes in our junior year. It was more difficult to get decorations for dances, and we couldnlt have those thick DagWood', sandwiches at our Parties any more. The teachers had to help issue ration books for a whole week. Except for the fact that we had to give up a few things, We enjoyed this Weekls vacation immensely.

It meant walking to all dances and parties unless we knew the wrong people. In March, a number of mysterious meetings were held in the lecture room, the prom committee had begun its blueprints. At the same time, our junior class play was announced as Spring Feverfl Tryouts were held for a week and then finally, Miss Knapp announced the cast. Every evening at four olclock on the dot, the cast could be seen trudging into the auditorium loaded down with potato chips, cokes, milkshakes, and hot-dogs, because they knew that it would be another practice that would last far into the night. Spring Feveru was presented to large, appreciative audiences on April fifteenth and sixteenth. The entire action' of the play took place in the pennant-bedecked living room of ai boarding house at Brookfield College on the day before Commencement. Howard Brant C Donald McClimansj was concerned over his possible exclusion from the graduation exer- cises when he was notified of the arrival of Aunt Maude, his financial backer. I-Ie was wor- ried that he might not be able to graduate with the class because Professor Bean refused to grant him a degree until he handed in a thesis in biology. Mr. Purcell, father of one of the students, had promised to give the college two hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the construction of a new science building at Brookfieldg but after being rudely treated by one of the students, he positively refused to donate anything. When further complications were cleared, Howard was finally permitted to graduate, and the college received its endowment. The proceeds from the play, plus the class dues, provided an ample sum for our prom which was held May twenty-first. The setting for the prom was a flower-laden garden of a southern plantation. Under a star-studded sky, we danced to the music of Iimmy Sylvester and his orchestra. 1 Thus our junior year ended successfully under the capable leadership of our class offi- cers: Bob Denniston, president, Harry Harnett, vice president, Sarah Reichard, secretary, and Iohn Bright, treasurer. Miss Tinley, our adviser, brought us through many a struggle and helped us end on top. September, 1943, opened our last year of high school, Some of our former classmates had succumbed to the desire for money and had given up school life. Most of us had worked during our summer vacation since workers were needed in almost every industry. At our Hrst meeting, we elected our officers: Paul Palm, president, 'Bob Zarecky, vice president, Iohn Boliver, secretaryg and Iohn Bright, treasurer. We were again honored by having Miss Tinley as our adviser. The officers and the faculty then selected a Pennemm staff. A group from our class decided that our school should have a dance every two weeks and we seniors sponsored the first one. The last of October brought forth the announcement of the senior class play, 'LThe Vampire Bat. This thrilling mystery, under the direction of Miss Doris Thompson, was presented by the class on December ninth and tenth. I 44 The scene of the play was the living room of an old mansion situated on a gloomy island off the coast of England. Don Abbott QLee Ionesj had inherited the mansion from his aunt and uncle who had died very mysteriously. The only obstacle in the way of his inheriting the mansion was that he must remain therefor one year before the place would legally be- come his. He had invited his fiancee, Kay Adams, and several other friends to visit him over the week-end. The housekeeper and the negro servant, together with Zoe Ainsworth, Don's cousin, plotted against Don and told him about his aunt and uncle's interest and con- tact with the vampire bat. Mrs. Kahn, the housekeeper, managed to have Zoe dress like a vampire bat to frighten Don. At the same time a prisoner, lugobia, who had escaped from the nearby prison, overheard M1'S. Kahn's plans. Wishing to recover the precious diamond which rightfully belonged to his native tribe, he managed to steal the vampire costume from Zoe and to appear as the vampire bat, but he was discovered and taken back to prison. The fabulous diamond was found, and Mrs. Kahn and the negro servant were asked to leave the niansion. Don returned the diamond to its owners, and Hnally he was successful in winning Kay. About the middle of December, a number of seniors were stricken with the flu. The last few weeks of 1943 found our attendance rapidly dwindling, but then Christmas vacation came along, and everyone had a chance to recover. Things in Penn High had changed immensely. 1944 found our class minus those members who had entered the armed forces. We missed all these classmates, but in the time of war, sacrihces must be made. Our magazine sale, which was held in December, made an enormous profit as did our stationery sale. Thus went our senior year, month by month. Day by day, our time for departure came nearer, until in May we took our exams, practiced for commencement and vespers, and attended the junior-senior prom. Then came vespers and commencement! We marched down the aisles with our diplomas clutched tightly in our hands, feeling a tinge of sadness, for we knew that next term we would not be back in Penn High, THE VAMPIRE BAT Donald Abbott, Lee jones, Kay Adams, Anne Yewellg Lydia Adams, Martha Kashnerg Richard' Grant ames fhompsong Buster Craig, Iames Baird, Ginger Drew, Shirley 'lRhodes, Zombie, Donald McClimansg Mrs. Kahn Betty Zlchok Zoe Ainsworth, Sarah Reichardq lim Brown, Bill Kinderg Iugobia, David Allen, A Woman, Mary Ellen Weikal 44 SENIOR BEQUESTS Always present in our memory of Penn High will be the many habits, deeds, talents, and idiosyncrasies of the members of our class.

' 1 THROUGH THE LOOP The Greenville High School basketball team, with a starting line-up of five seniors, began their season by winning an impressive victory over Franklin by a score of 30 to 18. At the expense of Meadville and West Mirldlesex, the Blue and Gold bagged their next two games on easy victories, with the scoring laurels going to Iohn Bright and Iohn Boliverg but they lost the next to Farrell by two points in an exciting game. The game was tied up until the last five seconds, but the usteelersn dropped in a desperate shot. Playing their first league game in a home stand, the Trojans had an easy victory over Hickory and followed up with quick wins over Mercer and Grove City, taking the lead in the county class A championship battle. Ac Sharpsville, in a rough and rugged contest, the Blue Devils forged ahead in the second quarter and managed to keep the lead until the whistle, but were very hard pressed in the final quarter. The Blue and Gold took over West Nliddlesex, with Bob Denniston hitting the nets for 18 points. ln the following game with lvlercer, Penn I-ligh ran up the highest score of the season thus far with 54 Points of which Iohnny Bright, star forward, made 24. But, on a return 'trip to Franklin, the squad was defeated in a very thrilling overtime game, with the score changing hands many times. Sharon had some anxious moments when they journeyed here and were behind until the last of the third quarter, but the Tigers got too hot for our boys to keep up to in the final period. There was a great deal of excitement during the game and after the game. 44 Starting off at a slow pace, the Trojans were held behind until near the half in their second game with Meaclville, but got back into stride the second half to win easily 38 to 19. ln their second game with Farrell, the squad was Caught off stride and lost a very tough battle 29 to 24. When Sharpsville traveled here, the Trojans won a hard, see-sawing game with lohn Bright again being high scorer for Greenville. Bob Denniston, Don Dunnavant, and lim Wallace also played excellent games. Needing a victory over Grove City to win the county class NA championship, the Blue and Gold came out from behind at the half to win by a score of 54 to 47. Iohn Boliver, veteran guard, came through with his best game of the season with 24 points. We wish to congratulate the team on their excellent season with a record of twelve wins and six reverses and for the winning of the championship crown for the class A league within a leaguen race. Also we wish good luck to the boys playing their last game for Penn I-Iigh: lohn Bright, lim Wallace, Don Dunnavant, John Boliver, Bob Denniston, and lim Thompson. THE TEAM R. Denniston Boliver D.

Those leaving this year are Frank Kosnac, lim Baird, Henry Gould, Willis Taylor, and Ken Hovis. 44 INTRAMURAL SPORTS The school again had a very full year of intramural sports with the competition running high among both the boys and the girls. ln home room basketball for the boys, the school was divided into two sections, a senior division and a junior division, with the junior part being separated into two leagues-a seventh and eighth grade league and a freshman league. For the championship of the junior league, III beat 208 soundly. The junior Varsity League, under the capable leadership of Mr. Crowther, had a successful season in the second year since its origin. It consisted of six teams under the captaincies of jack Reigel- man, Tom Timer, Dick Stover, Bob Ferry, Guy Denniston, and Vic Boliver. Reigelman's team, the Sea- hawksn, came out on top after a playoff with the two other top teams, Timer's and Stover's, but lost to a pick-upl' team that consisted of the high scorers of the other Hve teams. The girls' intramural sports, sponsored by the G.A.A., were managed by a senior and a junior manager and assistant manager respectively. The sports participated in by the girls were basketball, volley- ball, and ping-pong, with the girls being divided into a senior league consisting of juniors and seniors, and a junior league of freshmen and sophomores. They played every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at noon and on Tuesday evening. A playoff for the championship of the school was held by the winners of each of the 'two leagues. The gym exhibition, put on under the leadership of Mr. Eakin and Miss Eckley, was the gala end of the year's achievements in the gym classes. The boys and girls worked hard along with the tumbling team and parallel bar team to put on this wonderful spectacle. PENN i-HG!-!

Hardly an hour passes without some comment on how to win the war or run the government being passed. To express fully the startling advice of someone on the contents of these pages, this little poem was composed Please pardon me for thinking, But donlt you think the linking Of the names of those connected ,with our school With the deeds so great and mighty, With the wise and not the flighty, ls enough to make the average student drool? Now maybe 'tis l'm shrinking, Mayibe bright thoughts l am sinking When l say no one could really be that goody But this praising of each other When deserving more's another, ls a thing which should be hid behind a hood. These things you say are zany Of ladies fair and dainty And of the men the like of whom you've never heardg So now let us hear some offlring Which by others needs no scoffing And at last l,ll say you really wrote a wordf' Since it has been readily agreed upon that there are two sides to every case in good natured reply the Pennerian staff would like to show its reasons for what it has or has 'AListen, brother, l am talking- f Now donyt you think l'm squawking- But the things this staff could say but dare not Are so bad and so abundant Always sad and yet redundant That concerning them I dare not even hint. And still you come a-bawling, Though so eager, always stalling At just what the heck you're really mad about. There are times we'd like to print it, But remember there's a limit To all things concerning either love or lout. So don't mind those little things Which show us with heavenly wings- An impression very, very hard to bear- For whatever we may say, ' Youyd just better say, 'Hoorayll i And be glad the things we said werenlt really not printed print I'3I'C 44 I YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER One World ..................,... ........

DAYS I arose bright and early, with only one calling from mother, and by seven thirty I was resting in the parlor waiting for the hour to pass so I could leave for P. H. S. Since I had done all my homework the previous night, I had nothing to worry about. I sauntered up to 308 at eight Hfteen and by eight thirty, I was sitting quietly in my seat and had begun to read my chemistry. By bell time, all senior study students were quiet and orderly, and Miss Bacher had the roll taken by eight thirty one and a half. Mr. White said only Good morningug then after a good student had smilingly read the longest psalm in the Bible, we were excused to go to our morning activities. Time for trig. I peacefully strolled into 203 without a fear in the world. Everyone had his work done this morning-even Kinder and Landfried. After a happy trig period I dashed to chemistry because I like chemistry! On the first question, Cliff Swartzbeck immediately raised his hand. Mr. White, realizing that Cliff was awake, made no remark, just merely nodded assent at Cliff. Then Espanol-The class was very quiet and an interesting time was had by all. At last, my favorite class, P.O.D. No one was embarrased by puns and suchg' there were no arguments, and all agreed with Mr. Crowther on all things. Noon hour found me happily giving up my lunch time to type for the Penn I-Ii Points. When the end of the sixth period came, the bell rang and we all filed out quietly in a calm, orderly manner to go to our respective classes. During the seventh and eighth period study halls, there were no antics performed at all. Stanley Spargo even worked. In ninth period English class, Miss Bacher said, No assignment for tomorrowf, She let Mary Miller chew gum and waited patiently while Ed McGinnis became settled. Class proceeded with all being well informed on the fourth scene, second act of Macbeth. At last, four o'clock--I was so glad to go home and get my homework done.

His eyes were pointed to the leftg His sole ambition to commit a theft Of those beautiful paintings, those works of art, Those luscious curves that thrilled his heart. One night, in the absence of Sandy, When Sparga was feeling dandy- He crossed the aisle and raised the topl Ah! Without those gems he would be a flopl He snatched them from Sir Sandy's deng He swifty turned about, and then- A mighty grip upon his arm- In pain he shrieked with much alarm. And there the mighty Sandy stood With muscles of steel like those of Wood. An attempt for escape was made by Sparga, But, No, Sandy said, So you'll steal my Varga? Swiftly to help, Sandy's warriors sprang in, But none of their knives would go through Sparga's skin. Then, with a twist, Sandy wrenched from his shoulder The arm of Sir Sparga: Sandy'd proved himself bolder. Many stories are told Of Sandy, the bold- And now with the beautiful paintings of Varga Hangs the arm of the powerful scoundrel named Sparga.

Ar our first stop, Washington, D. C., we meet Paul Palm, presidential nominee, sitting in Langietti's Super Deluxe Spaghetti Grill talking over his publicity campaign with that ace of press agents, Iohn Robert Brown, known as lack lack tells us that Ioan Cal- vert and Yvonne Callahan have opened a hat shop for diplomats' wives. As we step out onto Pennsylvania Avenue, we hail a Goldhart cab which takes us to the White House where we Hnd the Hrst woman Presi- dent, Maryellen Roth, and her secretary of State, Virginia Conley, discussing world affairs. Our visit is cut short by a long distance call from Mlle. Deissler whose style show we have promised to attend. Arriving in New York, we go straight to the top floor of the Empire State Building where Dottie's show rooms are situated. Her advertising sketches, made by Dot Seeley, are very clever. After the fashion show, we stop for a coke at Zarecky's Corner Drug Store before hopping off to London. Inspector Thomas Hodge of Scotland Yard and his aid, lim Buchanan, greet us at the rocketport, Another of our old friends, Betty Hutton, is studying with them to be a woman detective. After a short turn around the city, we whisk back to meet Louise Herr, famous pianist, who has just completed a concert IOUY. Algiers is our next stopping place. Kenneth Bea tty, Sheik of Araby, is unable to meet us, so he sends loc Bodyguard,' Riley to show us through the bazaars. Our financial status is a little low, so we don't tarry there long. At King Tutys tomb, along the Nile, Corporal Guy Foulk of the Royal Egyptian Guards paces back and forth, guarding the ancient pyramid. He tells us Eugene Bortz and Bill Burt are sight-seeing a few miles down the river, but we haven't time to hunt for them. Oh yes, lim Wallace is also here doing his best to convince lames Cunningham, wealthy financier, that he needs a Persian rug. From here we hurry over to Moscow. Luckily we arrive just in time for lunch. Wimpy,' Sweigard takes us to a restaurant where over steaming bowls of borscht, he tells us of his career as a dancer in the Russian Ballet. In Calcutta, Alice McKean is doing. very well as a missionary with the help of Dr. Margaret Mis- chick, M.D. Their work is so interesting that it is hard to tear ourselves away. When we arrive in Canton, we get a surprise! Emery Zuschlag is eagerly trying to persuade the Chinese to put milk on their rice. Bob Moreland is here too. He's doing just what all xof us dream of doing-living a life of adventure. On the beautiful beach of Waikiki, Mary Cadman and Mary lane Cooper are basking in the sun- light. Wait a minute! Who's that coming out of the water? It couldn't bel lt is! Ernest Marinil That plastic diving suit he has just tested for Tumpak, Thompson, Tomczak, Inc, seems to be a success. Too soon, the rocketport attendant, Leon Ramsey, has our ship refueled and ready to rake off. 'KRidin' Down to Rio -If the rumors we hear are true, our old friend ULife-of-the-partyv Benninghoff is still giving Samba lessons at L'Landfried Night Club. The Pl-1308 makes a beautiful landing, and in the bay, Beaver's Motor Boat Service is on hand to transport us to the docks. The prices at LlLandfried's are a little high. Not that we're Scotch-oh, nol By dinner time, we've reached Mexico City where we Hnd Erla Stevenson who has already written one best seller. She is living in seclusion while writing a book on the life of her cousin, james Stevenson, the inventor of a container for the most universal solvent. After a short visit, we're off again, and this time our destination is Greenville, Pennsylvania. The stars are already shining by the time we reach the home of Prof. Willis Taylor. Walking into his living room, we see a lot of friends we missed today-Ruth Waldorf, now starring in Two Can Live as Cheaply as One, Bonnie McDermott who is teaching dramatics in a large high school, and Norma Stuver who is happily married. judge Carl Vesper, Attorney Mary Miller, Capt. l-larry I-larnett and Dr. Ed McGinnis are here too. And together, we sit down to a snack of hamburgers and milkshakes and talk over our school days. I 44 FIGURATIVELY SPEAKING Gass and Brink-a lovely pair- To teach the freshmen they despair. Rhodes and Sandy-boy-oh-boy! Sandy's dumb but Rhodes is coy. Wilson, blonde and Yewell, brunette- The gift all boys would like to get.

This is usually sufficient excuse for Henry Gould to arise and walk to the front of the room and over to the waste-basket, being very careful to step on any misplaced foot which may be occupying a small section of the aisle. On his return, of course, it is necessary for Norman Stewart to have explained to him the reason for I-Ienry's pilgrimage. The comments from Stewart immediately following Henry,s explana- tion quite naturally increasf: the quietness of the roomy and, added to this is the rhythmic beat of some miniature desk-drummer. The clock has reached three-thirty, and by this time Stuart Giebner has decided he is not going to sit in Willis Taylor's seat but in his own in the front row. Tony Langietti and Iim Long have each finished their detective magazines, and a quiet exchange is made by gently tossing the magazines across several rows oftstudents. lim misses his catch and nothing is saidgNorman Stewart being in another section of the room at the time. At fifteen to four, Iohn Boliver strolls in and Fred Thompson strolls out: the one generously to spend the remaining four minutes where he should beg the other to catch some unnamed and unknown bus. The books begin to close and the papers to be put away, and the pupils nervously watch the clock. By thirteen to, a tense silence has filled the room and the books are gripped in eager hands, and each foot is braced ready to shoot its owner from the seat halfway up the aisle. The hand swings to twelve to and a low rustling sound of the slight movements of nervous people Hlls the air. An hour passesg then anotherg and again you hear an almost audible sigh. And then, regretfully, the clock hand crawls up to the eleven mark. There is a low rumble throughout the school as many feet pound many boards in their urgent stampede to escape. And then, quietly, almost timidly, the bell rings on an empty study hall. i. Make lt Good. 2. Three Gentlemen. 3. Don't Do lt! 4. Smiling Through. 5. Cagey. 6. Mr. Neighbor. 7. Determ- ination. 8.
