PENN HIGH SCHOOL WILL ALWAYS REIMAIN IN OUR THOUGHTS. WE'LL NEVER FORGET THE CROWD- ED HALLS BETWEEN PERIODS-THE STAGE FRIGHT OF GIVING ORAL REPORTS-THE FUN AT CLASS PARTIES- THE FRANTIC CHEERING AT THE GAMES-THE THRILL OF A WINNING TEAM-THE SOCIAL WHIRL AT THE SATURDAY NIGHT DANCES-THE PEP IN THE STEP OF THE PENN HIGH BAND-THE FUN WE HAD ON PROM NIGHT-AND ALL THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COMBINED TO MAKE OUR SCHOOL DAYS. SOME DAY IN THE FUTURE, WHEN WE PICK UP THIS ,BOOK AND LEAF THROUGH ITS PAGES, MAY ALL THESE RECOLLECTIONS COME BOUNDING BACK AND BRING A SMILE TO OUR FACES AS WE SAY, I REMEMBER! A Tribute . . . APPRECIATING THE PRIDE HE HAS IN PENN HIGH SCHOOL AND THE FAITH HE HAS IN ITS STUDENTS, IN GRATITUDE POR THE FINE EXAMPLE HE HAS SET US, AND REMEZVLBERING HIS SUETLE HUMOR WHICH HAS MADE SCHOOL MORE EN- IOYABLE, THE CLASS OF 1949 DEDICATES THIS, THE TWENTYNINTH VOLUME OF THE PENNERIAN, TO MR. CHARLES R. WHITE 794 9 Qannazian catches the highlights of our school days in .GDEIZIZ gcgoof and keeps them forever in our memory . . We Learned in Our Classes 4 W i l -...LJ J J We Remember . . . We are greatly concerned these days about the way we have been using up our natural resources. The material ad- vantages with which God has blessed our nation have, all too frequently, been put to uses that were unwise. Recently we have observed a national consciousness of the need for their conservation. Along with this awareness comes a realization that our youth constitutes a wonderful national resource. This human resource is wasted when the individual, in the every day business of living, does not utilize his greatest potential abilities and aptitudes. That great humanitarian poet, Edwin Markham, recog- nized the worth of this human resource when he wrote TI-IE BUILDER. We are all blind until we see, That in the human plang No thing is worth the making, If it does not make the man. Why build these cities glorious If man unbuilded goes? ln vain welve done our work, Unless the builder also grows. With the initial help you have received from your teach- ers here in Penn High School, may you continue to use wisely and not squander that rich resource which is inherent within each one of you. A. B. DENNISTON Our Superintendent A. BRUCE DENNISTON B.S., University of Pittsburgh M.A., University of Pittsburgh Ph.D., University of Pittsburgh and Principal ARTHUR R. STEWART B. S., Grove City College M. A., Columbia University To the Class of 1949, Greetings: Your are children of the depression era. Many of your parents lost their positions and property. They had to depend on the government for existence. The New Deal blossomed forth with its Blue Eagle and multitude of lettered bureaus. You were too small to comprehend all of this. When you were in the second or third grade, the depression era was succeeded by war. Wages and prices jumped to unheard of heights. There was work for father, mother, and all the family who were old enough to labor. Maiiy of you were left at home to your own devices. The Great War had closed just before you entered high school. You saw the men return from the armed services. We are now living in the post-war period. The cycle of inflation has continued to rise. History is repeating itself just as it did after World War I. How long will it be until this bubble bursts? A new president has been inaugurated. He has promised higher taxes and a panacea for all our economic ills. Our standard of living is the highest in the world. We have greater luxuries than King Solomon in all his glory ever dreamed of. Seventy per cent of the class who began in 1945 is to be graduated into this kind of a world. What has hap- pened to the other thirty per cent? Have you appreciated this opportunity of an education, which unlike money, cannot be taken from you? Our nation needs clear-thinking, industrious, Christian men and women. We trust that you of the class of 1949 will take your place in our community, to help make our nation a better place in which to live. A. R. STEWART The Board of School Directors . . . MR. ROBERT M. GILKEY, President MR. IAMES I-I. MCCLIMANS, Vice President MR. NORMAN P. MORTENSEN MR. FREDERICK D. ENTERLINE DR. W. ALLAN GHOST MR. BARNEY B. PERIFANO MR. IOI-IN B. STOEBER MR. BERNARD L. COLLINS, Treasurer MRS. BETTY COLEMAN, Secretary The members of the School Board, who provide modern school needs for Penn High, always have the interests of the students at heart. They furnish countless devices that help make our school a more educational and more enjoyable one. lust recently they purchased a large plot of ground in the East End of Greenville on which they constructed a modern field house and a playing field equipped with night lighting. Their foresight in seeing Greenvilleys needs is parallel to that of another school board, many years ago, who laid the plans for Penn High as it is today. The school, exactly as they planned it, was completed in 1919. Below is the architecfs drawing of the then-proposed building. In the Offices . . . DR. A.

Class History just about four years ago, two hundred and two of us embarked upon our high school career. We ob- tained our first taste of the famous Mr. Shakespeare in Iulim Caesar, and we delved into the secrets of higher mathematics, some with algebra and some with general math. The Gay Nineties Revuef' a unique musical, presented an opportunity for several of our classmates to try their dramatic talents. Early in the new year, the freshman party went off with a bang, and we discovered several stars in our midst in 'LI-Iillbilly Beck, SinatraU Reinhart, and ClaghornU Frew. Thus we concluded our freshman year and waited for our sopho- more year to begin. Our sophomore year was highlighted by the return of the vets and by one assembly we shall all re- member. The performance given by D. K. Ernst, hypnotist, was watched with awe by the whole school, and many from our class tried their aptness at being hypnotized. Our classes were getting even more interesting. On certain days, frogs, worms, and grasshoppers, smothered in formaldehyde, warranted the attention of all would-be biologists. Euclid's theories in geometry were also getting an airing as many of us were attracted by the science of plane figures. Another high point of our sophomore year was the annual class party. Games and dancing filled the evening which was topped with refreshments and a Hoor show. Becoming juniors meant that our class was to organize. We elected: lack Brown, president, Paul Werger, vice president, Royce Reinhart, secretaryg and Paul Fisher, treasurer. Miss Margaret Skillen, who was teaching her first year in Penn High was appointed as our adviser. Our first major undertaking was the order- ing of our class rings. In order to raise money to Hnance the prom, we sold Christmas cards and wrapping paper. After a very successful sale, we increased our treasury further by sponsoring the 'Saddle Shoe Stomp and by selling birthday calendars for the Lions Club. Early in 1948, Mrs. Rousseau selected the cast for the junior class play. The Adventures of Huckle- berry Pinnl' was a faithful dramatization of the famous book by Mark Twain. It concerned the trials and tribulations of Huck and Tom on an adventure down South. The many old-fashioned costumes provided ad- ditional charm, and the play was a big success at both performances.

The dialog was written by Clara Roth and included Morris Green, a movie producer, his bothersome daughter, lean Ann Crawford, and his two secretaries, Zonie Rowland and Dot Daisley. Appearing for screen tryouts in the studio were: Donna Gilmore, Royce Reinhart, lack Brown, Donna Steadman, Mary Iane Haws, lack Driscoll, and an instru- mental trio consisting of Bill Smith, lim I-linman, and Tom Peters. All this time, we had been planning prom decorations. Balloons covered the ceiling, and graceful arches seemed to frame the sparkling silhouettes on the walls. .The picture was made complete as girls in pretty formals danced with their escorts to the music of Ierry Edwards' orchestra. lt was a night to be remembered and the outstanding feature of our junior year. Queen Eleanor Rowland and her attendants, Eve Kiskoski and Zora Detelich at the annual Homecoming Dance. We knew that our senior year would be the best of all. First, we elected Paul Fisher, president, Paul Werger, vice president, Eleanor Rowland, secretary, and loan Beck, treasurer. The most pleasant surprise, though, came when we found that Miss Skillen would once more lead our class through a successful year. Soon our magazine sale got under way. We set our hopes high and sold 52530.50 worth of subscriptions. Mary Ross and Donovan Curtis each received a watch for being top salesmen. Then everything began to happen at once. We had our pictures taken, ordered announcements, were measured for caps and gowns, and taxed our ingenuity with aptitude and interest tests. All this time, a Penn- erian staff was hard at work. Mrs. Rousseau had chosen a cast for The Baby Sitter. This play was about an innocent baby sitter trying to prove to her boy friends parents that she was dependable. Everything went wrong, and her incorrigible protege, Iunior, ate some toadstools that would have killed him had she not given him the necessary antidotes. Everything straightened itself out, though, as the parents realized she was a fine girl for their son to date. The Baby Sitter proved to be a hilarious comedy, and the two large audiences were very appreciative.

As part of the social program for our class, parties appeared on the agenda at Christmas time and St. Patrickls Day. Dancing, games, refreshments, and other entertainment kept us all busy. Committees were composed of seniors who volunteered for their jobs, and everyone became better acquainted. And last of all, to close our regular school days, we had our farewell party. This in itself showed us that graduation was near. As our tests were over and we began to practice for commencement, many of us began to wonder if we were really going to be happy about graduating after all. The prom, given in our honor by the juniors, was our last real school dance. Then came Vesper Service and Commencement. As we received our diplomas and filed from the stage, we were filled with an empty awareness that this night the door would be closed on our high school years, and we would have only memories left.

Without much IFFERT we rode up and down HILLS and into CRAWFORD County. The ones not used to TRAVAGLINI bus tried to KITCI-I a KNAPP. After a LONG trip and a CRATE GAIVIBLE, we arrived at the zoo which had a BROWN RUFF just like the VVALDORF-Astoria. The bus driver nearly SLIFKIN fell as he stepped out of the bus and yelled, Everyone COMOF- FETT. First, we saw a CROSS bear HYDEing behind a BUSH. Someone, trying to be funny, EMMETTed that the definition of a volcano was LAND-FRIED. Since there were no haw-HAWS for that KORENy joke, we KECKed out the joker and decided we were FREW with him. In the ape cage a huge gorilla pounded his CHESSt. He thinks he is the MAYER of the LYTLE zoo, and he DAWES many STUNTZ that are DILLEYS and would make a monkey GREEN with envy. Someone laughed, BURT we reprovingly said, Thatls an ART-MAN.,' We were going to buy some pea- nuts from a peanut woman, but then we found out the KOST-EN-BADER good-bye for they were DeNICOLA bag. When lunch time rolled around, We rang the CAMP-BELL and unLOCKEd the foodbox. We RUSSELLed up 11 lunch of RADISHes and PEARCEd buns filled with many kinds of meat and cheese, more commonly known as I-IADAR sandwiches, and also a few SCHUGARDT cookies. The bus driver said he had to buy ANSELL these sandwiches, and so he wanted KASHNER nothing. Some fast WERGERS tried to get MOORE than their share, but he yelled, USCHU- IVIANN, you COINNETT have them all. lust TUIVIPAK here when you've eaten what you've got. On the last lap of our trip, we proceeded EAGAN to the EDDYs and LEEs to see the fish. We followed our noses to the SMELTZ where we saw SAYLORS and FISHERS BATESing their hooks. We WAITEd there awhile, and then each boy took a girl to WALKER back to the bus. One girl didn't have a MERRIMAN, and we nearly SHEE- EER off and LEFFLER behind, showing no CURTISy at all. The most exciting incident of the DAVIS just before we left as a beautiful PET,TIS known as a SHEPARD dog, got run over by a big PACKARD. Some of the boys seemed to think that the car had a few McKENNAcal difficulties such as worn-out SPARGO plugs. The only damage to the car was a DUNT-ON the hood and a few kHINKS-ON the fender. After that, we would be glad when we'd be in bed TUCKed between the SHEETS. The zoo so inspired us that we ROTH the book, The Zoo BECKons to You. I. Decked out in the latest fashion. 2. Loretta. 3.

GREENVILLE 27 OIL CITY ..I. GREENVILLE 20 FRANKLIN .. GREENVILLE 6 MIDLAND GREENVILLE 7 GROVE CITY GREENVILLE SI HUBBARD GREENVILLE 7 ,SHARPSVILLE GREENVILLE 60 TITUSVILLE . Football When the 1948 football season started, no one knew quite what to expect. Traveling to Meadville for h H th Tioans looked im ressive and displaved spirit plus strength and teamwork. Early in the t e rst game, e ' j. p j hrst quarter, the Greenville power house broke out with its first offensive drive of the year and took the first game, 7-6. A With one win under their belts, the Trojans hopefully met the Hickory Hornets at the Sharon stadium. After a bewildering first half, the Greenville team trailed, 7-o. Despite some Hne line play, Hickory repeated . . . . . - . h d in the second half with a number of short passes, which were partially responsible for finally downing t e e- moralized Trojans, I4-O. The Hornet defeat was still stinging when our team appeared for the first time under the lights on the recently constructed Stewart Field to play before a crowd of 2,800. A determined Oil City team entered the fray with a victory in mind but were trampled to submission by the revamped Snydermen. Greenville mastered the Oilers completely and handcuffed them, 27-6. Rain, mud, and Franklin got together to play Greenville in the next night game. The tough, heavy Trojan line proved invaluable in stopping Franklin time after time. A steady downpour hampered Franklin's passing ace, and Greenville took advantage of the mud by gaining ground steadily on power plays. Again the Penn High gridders emerged on top of a zo-6 score. An undefeated Mitllancl team opposed the Trojans for the third consecutive game on Stewart Field. The Held resembled a quagmire Qcourtesy of Ion Yanceyj and the action was slowed nearly to a stop. After the first half, both teams realized that a break would probably mean the margin of victory. Mustering all their efforts, the Trojans drove over the goal line with one minute and forty seconds left to play. The game ended, 6-o, upsetting all the matchmakers' predictions. A Grove City punt that went straight up and then backward was all the Trojans needed to push across the Hrst score of the game which the whole county was watching. Grove City was evidently unable to break loose with their offensive power, and Greenville dominated the entire game, playing the major portion of it in the Grovers' territory. As the game ended with the Trojans on the Grove City five-yard line, the scoreboard showed a hard-fought score-Penn High 7, Grove City o. Then came Hubbard who had proved a tough team to former opponents and threatened to upset Penn High's victory string. However, when the first half was over Greenville led, 14-o. In the second half, the con- test was turned into a route as the Trojans swept past the broken-up Hubbard defense for 37 more points. The SI-O score showed the strong offensive might of the mud-covered Trojans in their sixth win. On a cold, drizzly night the Trojans played Sharpsville at the latterls Held. Both teams were hampered by the weather and the slippery ball. In the first half, Greenville scored against the stubborn Sharpsville team after a hard march. A tough struggle ensued the second half with Sharpsville dominating the play. However, Greenville held firm against the onslaught and saved the day, and the score at the Hnish read 7-6. The final action of the season took place at Stewart Field against Titusville. At the toss-up this was sup- osed to be an bod ls ame, but the Troans had different ideas after their narrow esca e at Shar sville, Pol- P Y Y 5 J P P lowing the first kick off, Coach Snyder's proteges made a scoring marathon out of the game, scoring one touch- down after another. Records tumbled as the mighty Trojan grid machine gained the highest offensive total for a Penn Hi h team in one season. To the seniors who la ed this frame oes the credit for the score, the . g . . . . . P Y fa 5 highest ever recorded in Penn High gridiron history-Greenville 60, Titusville o.

Tip off! Pictured at the left is the opening jump of the Tro- jans' game with Meadville. i Basketball Graduation the preceding year left only a few boys with varsity experience with which Coach Snyder could mold a basketball team for 1948. Bill Artman, Harold Royal, and Bill Wertz were the only lettermen left for possible starting berths on the team. But Harold Royal suffered a fractured wrist in an automobile accident which disabled him all season. After the first practices the squad was cut to ten players. For the Hrst game of the year, the Trojans traveled to West Middlesex gunning for victory. They started our sea- son off right by whipping the Big Reds, 34-26. The second game with Titusville was a thriller. Penn High had been trail- ing until the fourth quarter, then with a spurt of fast-breaking action, the Trojans tied the game and forged ahead to win, 32-29. Two hours after the game, Bill Artman was rushed to the hospital for an emergency appendectomy. He was out of action from then until the Mercer game. Franklin proved to be a tough opponent on our court as they handcuffed Penn High, 36-23. lnaccuracy in making fouls was our main trouble against Franklin. The Meadville Bulldogs swept the Trojans off their feet and displayed a stone- wall defense which netted us only sixteen points to their thirty-six. Hitting the winning column again, our hoopsters rolled out a lopsided victory over Grove City, 47-27. Led by Bill Wertz and Bill McCurdy, the Trojans showed their finest ball handling and accuracy to date in compiling their first class An win. Then Mercer High School dmbbed the Trojans, 58-33, mainly because of the amazing accuracy of their George Wright who became the countyls high scorer for the season. ln our next encounter, the Oil City hoopsters' gears were well oiled as they romped to a disastrous 56-33 victory. Big Bill Dunder and the Sharpsville Blue Devils pro ved too much for Penn High in a listless game at Rissell Gym, spelling another defeat for the Trojans, 49-32. In another Class AU battle, the Trojans met Hickory on the latterls floor. The Penn High netters kept up with the Hornets step by step in the first half, but then the Hickory dribblers pulled away and escaped with a 48-39 victory. Left to right: Bill McCurdy, Bob McConnell, Howard Dulvlars, joe Travaglini, Cene Wilkiiis, Bernhard Stoeber, john Koren, Bill Wertz, Rudy Turcic, Bill Artman Qwith ballj. VYV Y Scoring thirty-five points in the second half, the Trojans fought gamely to overcome the early lead the Mercer Mustangs had built up in their second game here. However, Penn High was unable to stop the Mustangs and tasted an- Other defeat, 64-54. A fast-breaking, sharp-shooting, Erie East quintet toppled the Trojans in a decisive game, A53-42. An arm injury Howard DuMars received during football season was agitated in this game and necessitated his being shelved for the rest of the season. The Trojans, next game was at Franklin. Scoring almost at will, the Franklin players humbled the Penn High dribblers, 52-29. Repeating their Hrst win over West Middlesex, the Trojans displayed a better brand of ball in nipping the Big Reds, 28-23. ln quest of another Class AU win, Penn High went to Sharpsville, but the Blue Devils opened up with a whirlwind attack and drowned the Trojans in a 57-26 score. ln an exciting game with Grove City, Ioe Travaglini sank a shot from the foul circle to give the Trojans their sec- ond Class A,' win. The contest was nip and tuck until Greenville turned on a flashy attack in the last half to nose out the Eagles, 45-43. The last three games ended in defeat for the Penn High floormen. Meadville repeated their Hrst win over the Trojans, 64-45. Bill Artman, who had twelve points, displayed his best game of the year and looked impressive for the losers. Then the high-flying Hickory Hornets came to town. The Vrange brothers led their team to an easy 57-34 victory over the Trojans. ln the final contest with Titusville, three seniors-Ioe Travaglini, Bob McConnell, and john Koren- played their last game for Penn High. Titusville added another sour note to the '48-'49 record as the Rockets racked up a 42-37 win. f Even though the Trojans had five wins and thirteen losses, the fans showed the same spirit in following Penn Highls games. Guard Bill Wertz garnered eighty field goals and forty-seven fouls for his two hundred seven point total for the season. Bill McCurdy was runner-up with one hundred eleven markers. Both players will be available for next yearls team, which will also have some experienced players from the V. ranks. 1 4 l i i First Row: David Chessg Harold Gruverg Dale Conng Neal Linemang Dick Guerrinig Donald Robertsg Fred Ohlg Tom Seiple.

GREENVILLE 43 TITUSVILLE Wrestling in Penn High School has had its popularity increased in the last few years. The fine records compiled by Coach Berry's teams have proved to the fans in Greenville that wrestling is a major sport. When the call was issued for wrestling aspirants, many boys tried their hand at the mastery of grappling. Not all of them participated in every match, but they practiced with the regulars and stayed in good shape. Erie Academy was host to the Trojans for the first match. Academy had a lot of rough boys who knew their stuff. But Greenville also had a lot of rough boys who know their stuff and came out on the long cnd of a 29-I2 score. Sam Gano recorded a pin in the 120-lb. division, and Royce Reinhart pinned his man in the heavyweight division. A rough and tough Grove City team was next in line for the Trojans. Penn I-Iiglfs grunt and groan artists pulled through in fine style winning, 26-17. Norman Lenkner defeated heavily favored junior DeAugustine in a match that drew much attention. With two wins in their favor, the Trojans open ed up their first home match with Oil City. The fans packed the Penn High gym to see their musclemen at work, The Oilers didn't offer much competition as the Trojans notched a pin in every weight except the II2-lb. class. The final score sounded more like a foot- ball score-Greenville 54, Oil City o. A few changes were made in the various weights when Greenville met up with Titusville. The Trojans proved to be a well conditioned team, trimming the Rockets, 43-10. A vastly improved Grove City team turned about from their first defeat to surprise the Trojans in a very close match, 25-22. Sam Gano continued his winning ways by recording a pin in one minute ten seconds of the first period. A little wary after their first meeting with the wrestling powerhouse of the Trojans, Oil City managed to win three matches, though they still fell victim to our grapplers, 30-8. ln the last match of the year on the regular schedule, the Trojan twelve came through with flying col- ors, bulldozing over Titusville, 43-8. Falls were recorded in all the weights except the 95, 127, 154, and 165-lb. classes. Sam Gano and Royce Reinhart, seniors, went through the season undefeated in all their matches. Sam's seven victories extended his winning skein to two years. Royce was remarkable in the fact that he pinned all six of his wrestling foes in this, his first season. Other seniors graduating are George Thompson, whose record this year was six wins and one loss, lack Brown, three wins and three losses, lim DeArment, one win and two losses, and Sam Longiotti, no wins and three losses. Over a period of two years, the Trojan wrestlers have won sixteen matches and lost two, which proves that the boys have tried hard and kept in training under Coach Berry's expert instruction. Following the regular season, the District IO P. l. A. A. wrestling eliminations and finals were held in the Penn High gym March 5 and 12. Two Trojan wrestlers, Sam Gano and Neal Lineman, won the 120 and IO3 weights respect- ively in the Hnals. This entitled them to compete in. the state finals at Lancaster.

After winning that game, the Trojans lost a heartbreaker to Stoneboro. The Penn High stickmen then downed the next four teams, but lost to Sharpsville.
