BRUCE DENNISTON BS., University of Pittsburgh M,A., University of Pittsburgh Ph.D., University of Pittsburgh Dr. Denniston, here shown in con- ference with Gene Wilkins, senior class president, and Norma Mazzeo, treasurer, is always interested in the problems of our class. Class of 1950: Congratulations to you, the mid-century class. You are graduating from high school at a most challenging period in history. Your high school days have been influenced by the many civic, social, economic, and scientific problems growing out of reconstruction fol- lowing Woi'ld War II. You have witnessed such new ideas as television, nuclear fission, sonar, hydrogen- bomb, United Nations, cold War, Fair Deal, cradle-to- grave security, Communism, and many other concepts to which you have been introduced in your high school classes. l-low your generation deals with these problems will determine the course of history during the second half of the century. As your superintendent and counselor, l urge that you take a look back into the past half century to note the accomplishments as well as the failures of other generations, then face the future, determined to take your responsible places as individuals in meeting the problems of American Citi- zenship, and in striving to solve them. A. BRUCE DLNNISTON Superintendent of Schools To the Class at the end of the Hrst half of the zoth century: Greetings. Your class is the smallest class since 1931. However, it is said that quality is better than quantity. Worltl Wai' II closed the summer before you entered the eighth grade. You have studied the trend of the times in your history classes. The United Nations has been established. It has helped to prevent several wars. lVlany problems remain to be solved before we can have an enduring peace. You will take your place as voters in a very few years. Your influence will be needed to possibly keep our country from socialism or some other ism.H A number of you should seek higher education in order to provide good leadership. Maiiy of our girls will soon establish homes. I hope they will be good Christian homes. Others will be scattered in all direc- tions. May you ever look back on your high school days as the happiest days of your lives. Auf Wiedcrselieii, ARTHUR R. STEWART High School Principal . . . and Principal l ARTHUR R.

Class History ln the fall of 1946, one hundred eighty-one of us put our childish toys away, for we were to become full-fledged high school students. Up to then the main course of study had been readinl, 'ritinf and 'rith- metic, but we were grown up now with Latin, algebra, and Shakespeare to take into our stride. Une of the highlights of the year was a bus trip to Meadville where we saw the play Iulius Caesar enacted on the stage. Another enjoyable event was the freshman class party in the gym. We had a floor show, played games, and danced, but the thing that provided the most amusement was the relay race in which the boys donned the corsets. The remainder of the year passed quickly. Inst one hundred sixty-eight of us returned the next year as sophomores. We laughed to ourselves when we saw the bewildered and confused expressions on the faces of the freshmen as they tried to Hnd the way to their classes in the mad rush through the halls. Of course we could never have looked that way. Catherine Foglia and Marian Oakes joined the cheerleading squad at the beginning of football season. Activi- ties and clubs began to fill many of our hours, but we still found time to learn phylas and theorems. By the time we were juniors, our number was reduced to one hundred Hfty-six, and there were so many things for us to do that it was necessary for us to organize. The result of our election was: Harley Cloud, president, Cap Meails, vice president, Beverlee Beckstine, secretary, Diane Booth, treasurer. Miss Schumann was our adviser. Gui' first activity as an organized class was a Halloween party. The gym was decorated with pump- kins and cornstalks for the event. Dancing and a truth or consequencel' program constituted the entertain- ment. Vlfe shall always remember Gene Wilkins and Don Long paying their consequence by doing Bo Bo. It wasnlt long till we ordered class rings, but it was a long time before we got them, or so we thought, for we were quite anxious. There was a near-riot when they did arrive one day in lvlarch. Being in need of money to finance a prom, we had a Christmas card sale which started our treasury off with a nice sum. Of course. our class play helped the financial status too.

Homecoming Queen Mildred Zahniser and her attendants, Marian Oakes and Mary lane Fry. ln October a cast of twenty-four was chosen to put on The Nit Wits. Ir was a farce concerned with a psychology student who decided, while his Parents were away on a trip, to use some of his knowledge to earn money for his next year's college expenses. His parents read his ad in the paper and decided to play a joke on him by hiring actors to pose as Patients. The outcome was hilarious, and the play a huge success. The prom was the finishing touch of the year. We spent many hours in the home ec room frantically cuttin , astin , and aintin so we could have the decorations read . The da of the rom found us rushin g P g P g Y Y P g around the Recreation Center tr inv to et ever thin in its ro er lace. Wllen that lon awaited ni ht came, Y rv g Y g P P P g the girls in their attractive formals and the fellows in their best suits found themselves on the top of a New York penthouse, overlooking the Nlanhattan skyline. Iohnny lVlartin's orchestra provided the music for the dancers. The next fall found our number drastically reduced as only one hundred twenty-live returned to be dignihed seniors. Another election was held making Gene Wilkiils, presidentg Delbert Leonard, vice presidentg Nlarian Oakes, secretary, and Norma Mazzeo, treasurer. M1's. Denniston was our new adviser. Since our treasury was low in funds, and we wanted to have a yearbook to record forever the career of our class, we launched a magazine sale and made out rather well. Harley Cloud, the high salesman for the boys, and Nlargie Nlenihart, the high for the girls, received engraved Pen and Pencil sets. Tom Radish car- ried home a radio. It was the Prize offered to any person selling five or more subscriptions and lucky enough to have his slip drawn from the box. Tryouts were soon held for the senior class Play, and a cast of twelve was chosen for Damsels in Dis- tress. It was about two girls of college age who lived in Nlrs. Guppyls rooming house. Pam, whose Aunt Eustacia had sent her there to study music, had used the money for art lessons. Gerry's Uncle Braymer had given her money for a business course, but she was taking dramatic lessons instead. Whell the aunt and uncle, former sweethearts who had quarreled, decided to visit the girls, many humorous predicaments were encountered. The Play had two large audiences who responded appreciatively. Snaps from the senior class play, Da1nsels in Distress. Mid-term found us being measured for caps and gowns, ordering announcements and name cards, and exchanging pictures. Many began pondering over college catalogs and application blanks. Mr. Crowther gave us numerous tests to aid us in choosing our vocations. ' i A i X Before we knew it, it was commencement season with everyone getting ready for the prom and finishing up the year's Work. Finally, after the last books were turned in, we donned caps and gowns for our vesper ser- vice. We enjoyed our last social time together at our farewell Party. Then came the night for which we had waited twelve years-commencement. Graduation brought a thrill to our hearts but also a note of sadness as we realized it would be our last time together.

I2 SI-IARPSVILLE . . . . . o O11 August 18, the football candidates began to report for regular practice, and when September 9 rolled around, the Trojans looked to be in top shape for the opening game. Erie East, a new team to our schedule, came to Stewart Field confident of victory. An Erie halfback Pulled one of the most spectacular runs that has ever been seen on Stewart Field when he intercepted a pass and ran IO2 yards for a touchdown. But even with this amazing run, the Trojans came out on top by the score of 25-18. Vxfhen the Hickory Hornets came to town, it was more than just a football game to the Trojans and coaches, who were still burnin from the 1 -o defeat of last ear which cost our team the Count Class A and District I0 5 Y Y Championships. The boys really set the Hornets back, I2-O. The next game, at Oil City, found the Trojans getting off to a quick start, scoring on the third play of the game but missing the conversion. Then in the second period the Oilers scored and made the extra point. The aroused Oiler team seemed to be too much for the boys to overcome, and as a result the Trojans lost a tough one, 7-6. For the third triumph of the season the team traveled to Titusville where they met a revengeful team of Rockets who tried to even things up after being defeated last year by the score of 60-o. In the first few minutes the Trojans intercepted a pass and scored after a march of nineteen yards. The Rockets came back fighting, but the Trojans refused to let them score, and when this hard-fought game was over Penn High was on top by a 7-o score. With three wins and one loss under their belts the Trojans traveled to Franklin where they racked up the highest score of the season, After a few quick touchdowns in the first quarter, Coach Snyder substituted freely, and everybody played. The second half started, and hardly anyone on the first team re-entered the game. When the massacre was over the Trojans had won, 35-o. The team next traveled to Micllaiid where a tough Nfidland team lay waiting, gunning for the Trojans after a 6-o upset last year. The Midland team was sparked by a tough fullback who racked up the yardage against the Trojans, and the Trojans were overcome with their second loss of theseason. The score was Iwfidland 12, Penn High o. For our homecoming game we played Grove City, our traditional rival. The Trojans unwrapped their fancy punt returns, and that is something not seen on too many football Helds. This play worked twice: first Myron Bright got the ball and ran seventy-four yards fora touchdown. The second time, Mike Peterson got the ball, and, behind tremendous blocking, he ran eighty yards for another score. Those two touchdown runs showed the power of the Penn High eleven, and Grove City couldnyt come back to score. The final result was Penn High 13, Grove City o. Our next victim was Hubbard. It was a cold night, but the Trojans were confident. Even with many fumbles caused by the cold, the Trojans scored. Late in the second quarter Hubbard intercepted a pass and ran it back for a touchdown, their only score. On a punt return, Mike Peterson scored again after another of his beautiful runs. The Trojans won again by the score of 32-6. The Hnal game of the season brought Sharpsville to our field. Even though the Trojans had lost two games, they had not lost to Class A teams, thus the game determined whether Penn High would be Class A Champs. A well- remembered event of this game happened when the Blue Devils were on our twenty-yard line. Ellison, a Sharpsville back, threw a pass to Moyer who jumped high in the air to catch it, but before he came back to the ground, George Weldon, the Trojan fullback, hit him, and it looked as though Moyer did a nose dive straight down on his head. He didn't move, and everyone thought he had broken his neck, but actually when he came down he lit on his chest, with his feet straight up in the air, and flopped over on his back with only the wind knocked out of him. The Trojans scored twice and won, I2-o. Thus the closing of the season showed the Trojans winning the Class A Championship. Out of the starting eleven nine players will not be back next year. The boys who have played their last game for dear old Penn High. F r t Ro Kenny Conng Bill McCurdyg Howard DuMarsg Bill VVcrtzg Tom Detclich.

Bill McCurdy, Howard Dulylars, Gene Wilkins, and Bill Wertz returned again to Play under a new coach, Glenn Caulfield. The Trojans got off to a bad start by losing the first four games. ln the game with the Meadville Bulldogs, the scoring was very close with the half ending 14-13. The second half proved fatal to the Trojans, and the final score was Penn High 24, Meadville 36. The second game was with a newcomer, Rocky Grove. The first quarter Rocky Grove scored fourteen points to Penn High's two. As the game progressed, the Trojans tried to narrow the gap, but the Grov- ers were too much to overcome, and they won, 47-32. The Trojans, Poor foul shooting and failure to hit the nets from the sidelines spelled defeat at the hands of the Franklin Nurserymen, 17-45. Poor foul shooting again spelled defeat in the Titusville game. The closest Penn High came to catching up was in the fourth quarter when they were within two Points of Titusville, but the Rockets exploded for six straight Points, and the final score was Penn High 36, Titusville 43. The next tilt was with our traditional county rival, Grove City. The Trojans finally started to click and won their first game of the season, 60-41. They led all the way and were never threatened by the Eagles. The next game again brought a clash with Rocky Grove. From the beginning, the Trojans fell behind and never caught up. This, their fifth loss out of six starts, was by a 58-35 score. Then came Nlercer, and the game was rough the whole way through. lt was a see-saw affair. At the end of three quarters the sc ore was 40-40, but the fourth quarter showed the Mustangs outscoring the Trojans to win the game, 59-50. Another new team to our schedule was New Wilmingtcmxi. This game showed Penn High getting more re- bounds, and they were a little more accurate in their shooting, but New Wilinirigtoii was too strong, and they hand- ed the Trojans their sixth loss, 66-43. One of the closest scoring games of the season was the repeat with Titusville. ln the last few minutes the score was Titusville 47, Penn High 44. Floros sank a side shot to even it up a little more, but failure to sink another basket caused Penn High to lose another tough one, 47-46. Then Sharpsville again proved disastrous to the Trojans. At half-time the score was tied, 2I-21, and at the end of the third quarter it was 29-27 in favor of Sharpsville. ln the fourth quarter, Sharpsville scored sixteen points to Penn Higlfs seven to go ahead and Win, 45-34, In the Hickory game, the Hornets got away to a fast start, and from then on, the Trojans could not keep up.
