carried in their purses. Among the articles listed were forks, shoe polish, pickles, and boys' pictures. With the introduction of the K-M-E-Ish Club, the La Confradia Espanola and the Variety Club, the students were given a diversity of new organizations to choose from. The presentation of our Junior Class play, Young April, the Fall Frolic, and the Music Festival caused much ex- citement and pleasure and those class members who missed these performances learned that they had missed an excellent time. Later came that memorable night of May ninth, the night of the Junior-Senior reception. This year we received our class rings -- this fact, together with the annexation of our third straight golf championship, and the addition of a new projector and public address unit for our auditorium, made the class a jubilant group. The Senior year found everyone going about his work with added zeal. The class officers were as follows: William Sanderson, president, Fred Bey, vice presi- dent: Jim Stoner, treasurer, Viola Monfredo, secretary: and John Kopelic, his- torian. We noted the new scoreboard, which proved exceedingly valuable at the Westinghouse game, our first against city league opposition, and all ensuing con- tests. Under Mr. Kane's supervision, the Nature Club originated. Later the French Club, with Miss Heggie as sponsor, was formed. The F all Fiesta proved a great success, as did the lVIikado. The sweet memory of our band marching in the Armistice Day Parade in Pittsburgh was short-lived as our country plunged into a bitter conflict with the Japanese on December 7. On January I6, the hilarious Senior Class Play, Footloose, was presented by a talented group. Then came the glorious event, the Junior-Senior reception, followed by the Senior Prom. Baccalaureate services were held on May 29 and Commencement on June 3. The planting of our class tree was the final act of the Class of '42. We then bade farewell, not only to an institution of learning, but to the pride and joy of our hearts - Penn High School. UOHN KoPELrc.J II'I IIJI 'DIDV 02' lf, X Ad-
