Let us tell you our purpose for' the 1952 Tiger Lily. Our purpose is this: to tell you the story of the 1951-52 school year at PAHS. We wish to do this informally in colloquial conversation. But we aren't going to say much. We have a number of pictures which speak for us about our students, teachers, activities, and affairs. And we mentioned that this book is to be informal. That's right. We have abandoned the traditional section method and theme. Our arrange- ment is chronological. Let us begin. Last summer CIQSID, as we walked up Arnold Avenue on the way to the park, we passed the high school. As we looked upon this familiar build- ing, we detected an emptiness behind the closed doors. Lacking was the spontaneous and, sometimes, boisterous activity of the students. The window shades uniformly drawn suggested the idleness of the classrooms, and the darkened halls were still. Outside the building, the janitor was tending the lawn which would, with the advent of autumn, be trampled by the students' hurried paces. YVe paused to consider our school. Having been away from it for two and one-half months, we viewed it with a clearer and less biased per- spective. We realized that it did present the opportunities to live with people, to learn, and to have fun. Then, we realized one other thing which almost startled us. We actually missed the place, and we were looking forward to September 5. ve six FINALLY SEPTEMBER CAME, AND THE SIGN REASSURED US THAT SCHOOL WOULD START ON SCHEDULE Anxiously we prepared for that first big day. We looked at our shoes. They were a little scuffed. We shined them. We checked our togs and were eager to wear some of the new things which we had bought during the summer. Everything was ready. llitlilll, OPIENS SEPTEMBER 5ll-I, 15151 THEN THE DAY CAME AND WE HURRIED TO SCHOOL TO SEE OUR FRIENDS, SOME OF WHOM WE HAD NOT SEEN FOR THREE MONTHS. AS SENIORS, WE WERE THE BIG GEARS OF THE SCHOOL. XVC Seniors greeted each other warmly. Then wc noticed some juniors and shook hands with them. Perhaps our manner be- trayed some feeling of superiority. WE SAID LITTLE BUT OBSERVED MUCH. WE TOOK A LONG LOOK AT ALL OF THE JUNIORS. THEY'RE A GOOD CLASS, JOE LUCE SAID.

I'-MM. TO UPHOLD TRADITION, WE INITIATED THE SOPHOMORES SEPTEMBER 17. THIS GAVE US A CHANCE TO FLAUNT SOME OF OUR NEW ACQUIRED AUTHORITY AS SENIORS. However a controversy arose out of this ordeal. Some thinking individuals thought this initiation to be a silly kind of bar- barity. They maintained that upper-class- men could learn to know Sophomores at a dance or party. They said that a well- planned initiation might be good, but they also said that initiations usually weren't wcll-planned. Red-faced, we admitted that our initiation was not too orderly and accepted the just criticism. The Sophomores wore burlap bags, colored themselves with lipstick, and scented themselves with garlic. They rolled nuts, received several cracks with a bludgeon, and ate vaseline sandwiches. Af- ter this, we concluded that the Sophs had taken their ini- tiation in great style, and we accepted them as full-fledged members of PAHS. nine AFTER THE FLURRY OVER INITIATION HAD DIED WE FOCUSED OUR ATTENTION ON THE FOOTBALL TEAM The two men who were responsible for whipping the football team into shape were Coaches Ray- mond Poole and Frank Rackish. They stormed and hollered. but their ef- forts wcre not in vain. The boys responded well. lst row: llczul-cuncll I'mxIr-I Sain-I Ixxx L I x xx x 2mI row: Rqlx'IxIsIl, Nlzxrilx-IQ, II-I1 xx In I I 1 I1 xx Ill II :xv I XI w xx I 1: ll I I II Ilu x N14 .Tull lwxx: II.Ixln-1-11, NIIN-xl.

AND IN THE FALL, THE PRESS CLUB WAS ORGANIZED AND THE BUGLE, THE VOICE OF PAHS, WAS PUBLISHED. Tr-IE EDITOR At one time or another, all of us have glanced at our bi-monthly paper and have marvelled at the amount of organization and work which is necessary to get the paper in its finished form to us students. The head of the Press Club, the editor-in-chief, is responsible for getting the news to the Steno Club on time. This year the person who was chosen for the important posi- tion was Jane Anne Buckheit. Jane is a capable and dependable Senior. She has proved that the members of the Press Club were not :mis- taken in their choice of a leader. THE COLUMNIST Each year a person is given the task of writing extras for the Bugle. The extras provide interest- ing reading and give the paper an important look. The extras show that our paper is above the usual gossip which high school papers contain almost wholly. Tom. Saiers has proved his ori- ginality and ability to write creat- ively. Tom should have the .praise of everyone for the work which is certainly outstanding. His best related work of the year was the series on the adventures of Gwen- dolyn. Here are some actual columns that were written this year. Jokes October 26, 1951 Mr. Rud. Kto classl. If this, chemi- cal were to explode, I'd be blown through the roof. Now gather around close so you can follow me. Miss Snyder. Keep your eyes on your books, now. I'm going to skip around the room. Johnny's Dad. What kind of grades did you make in your fin- als? Johnny. All right in everything but one study, and in that I'm like Washington, Jefferson and Lini- coln. Mr. Waid. Why is that? Johnny. I went down in history. Mr. Rudzinsky. What is HNO3? Marilyn. Err---I've got it on the end of my tongue. Mr. Ruclzinsky. Yr-u d better spit it out in a hurry. It's Nitric Acid. Mrs. Gillen. Joel, are you chewing gum again? No, maam. I'm just soaking Joel. up a prune to eat at recess. The papers looked like this. One-hundred and sixty were printed every two weeks by the co- workers of the Press Club, the Steno Club. Personality of the Week. The personality of the week is Phyllis Johnson. She has been awarded this honor for several reasons. First, she has a charming person- ality. Second, she is very industrious and is well liked by her many friends. Phyllis is a good student as any of the teachers will tell you. She also has many achievements on her re- cord. She is secretary-treasurer of the Senior Classy on the Tiger Lily staff, in the Senior play, and a member of the Latin Club. Certainly these achievements show how well like and industrious she is. So let's give three cheers for the Personality of the Week, Phyl- lis Johnson. ii .-g., If If Cynthia were fat and Shirley were thin? If you saw Jim without Gretta? If Mr. Rackish wore dungarees' to school? If Janet Goodrich were Janet Bad- poor? It E.

W sixteen AFTER THE FOOTBALL SEASON HAD ENDED, AND AS WE WATCHED THE SENIORS PRACTICE FOR THEIR PLAY AND THE HUSTLE OF THE BASKET- BALL CANDIDATES, WE REVIEWED THE PROGRESS OF PAHS.

Don Farmelo was the big seller of magazine sub- scriptions. Don's sales amounted to 321660. For his effort, Don was awarded a Parker SI pen and pencil set. THE MEN IN CHARGE OF THE MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN WERE JOE LUCE, GARY LYONS. AND TOM SAIERS. THEY RECEIVED DIRECTION AND HELP FROM MR. RACKISH. nineteen AND THE TIGER LILY STAFF WAS AT WORK. THEY WERE TRYING TO TURN OUT A YEARBOOK WHICH POSSESSED THE QUALITIES OF A BEST SELLER. Crain, llcrgho Sziicrs, Bucltheit, Raukisli, Luce The Copy Editors wrote, collected names, dates, records, and all necessary data which is fundamental in making a yearbook.

They planned the method of approach and adapta- tion, made the dummy, secured pictures, did much of the writing, and worked with the photo- grapher, printer and en- graver. OUR STORY CONTINUES. WE WALKED DOWN THE SECOND-FLOOR HALL, OPENED THE BALCONY DOOR AND GLANCED INTO THE GYM. THERE WE SAW THE BAND MAJORETTES. Wc gazed and gazed, but little thought-how much hard work they did to qualify to lead the band. IMPRESSED BY THE MAJORETTES, WE DECIDED TO SIT IN ON THE BAND'S FALL CONCERT. WE WERE DELIGHTED NOT ONLY WITH THE MUSIC BUT WITH THE GOOD APPEARANCE OF THE BAND AND DIREC- TOR. THE NEW UNIFORMS, THE BUYING OF WHICH WAS THE FIRST GOAL REALIZED BY THE BAND EOOSTERS, MADE THE DECIDED IM- PROVEMENT IN THE BAND'S APPEARANCE. twenty-one SO WE GOT A CLOSER LOOK AT THE BAND. WE DIRECTED OUR ATTENTION TO ITS DIFFERENT SECTIONS: PERCUSSION, BRASS, AND WOODWIND. BRASS: sitting: Brundage, Elder, Tripp, Baker, Farmelo, Dudzinsky, Mole, Knapp standing: Rumsey, Ritt- burg, Letha Mowery, Shirley Mowery, Dwyer, Miller, Hoffman, Stayer.

IT WAS OUR DUTY TO ABSORB. twenty-four AND BEFORE THE CHRISTMAS VACATION, WE NOTICED JIM MCLAUGHLIN SELLING A CHANCE ON A HAM TO MISS SNYDER. JIM WAS ONE OF THE MANY JUNIORS WHO WERE TRYING TO RAISE CLASS FUNDS. f x I N By the way, Miss Snyder won the ham. NOT EVERYONE HAD GOOD LUCK. WE WERE SADDENED TO HEAR THAT MR. RUDZINSKY WAS THE VICTIM OF AN ACCIDENT. HE WAS STRUCK BY A CAR WHEN HE SLIPPED ON THE ICY PAVEMENT OF A STREET. RESULTS: LACERATIONS OF THE HEAD AND SCALP, ONE BROKEN LEG, AND FIVE MONTHS OF SCHOOL LOST. CBY MR. RUDJ twenty-five We especially enjoyed the singing of the Boy's quar- tet. JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS VACATION, THE MUSIC TEACHERS COOPER' ATED TO PRESENT A CHRISTMAS PROGRAM. THE CHRISTMAS PROGRAM MADE US AWARE OF THE BLESSEDNESS AND HAPPINESS OF CHRISTMAS TIME. THIS WAS NOT A HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAMg IT WAS A SCHOOL PROGRAM. twenty-six The FIRST-GRADERS HAD A SHOW OF THEIR OWN TO PRESENT. WE NOTICED BOBBY BUCKHEIT REALLY SINGING. THE BIG KIDS WERE NOT TO BE DENIED, AND DECEMBER 21 FOUND THEM AT THE LATIN CLUB DANCE. twenty-se ven THEN THE BIG VACATION. WE HAD SOME FREE TIME, AND WE WANTED To SEE THE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS. SO FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS, WE TOOK A WALK THROUGH THE TOWN. AND WE HAD LOTS OF SNOW. DURING OUR LEISURE HOURS, WE READ A COUPLE OF BOOKS, AND RELAXED. AND OFTEN WE JUST LOOKED AT OUR CHRISTMAS TREE. l 1 I I twemfy'eight BUT WE RETURNED TO SCHOOL JANUARY 2. AND WE BECAME BETTER ACQUAINTED WITH OUR NEW TEACHER, MRS. BILLHARTZ. Mrs. Billhartz Filled thc position created by the misfortune of Mr. Rud- zinsky. She immediately took command of the situation and soon the science and mathematics classes were back to nor- mal. Mrs. Billhartz's friendly attitude and wil- lingness to help students made them enjoy learn- ing. BUT WE HAD TO STUDY FOR MID-YEAR EXAMINATIONS. WE STUDIED HARD, TOOK THE TESTS, AND RECEIVED OUR REPORT CARDS-AND PASSED. BOY, WERE WE HAPPY. twenty-nine SEVERAL DAYS AFTER THE MID-YEARS, AS WE WERE ABOUT TO LEAVE THE BUILDING AT FOUR O'CLOCK, WE HEARD A GREAT COMMOTION. WE INVESTIGATED. THE J.V. CHEER LEADERS WERE PRACTICING FOR THE NEXT BASKETBALL GAME.

THIS REVIEW OF THE FIRST PORT-COUDY BASKETBALL GAME SHOULD MAKE YOU REMEMBER OTHER ACTION. Promptly at 8:15 o'clock, the Gators led by Co-captains Lyons and Meacham filed out of the dressing room for the pre-game warm up. They looked grim, but confident. One could not help notice the mounting tension of the players and spectators. Everyone realized what a win would mean for either team. By this time, the Falcons were on the court. They were big, and they, too, possessed confidence. Thus far they had a clean slate, and they expected to keep it that way. Well, in the first quarter, things really began to rotate. Dick Thwing dunked in six points as quickly as you could wink your eye. That fellow, Lyons, was whipping the ball around with plenty of know how-over to Meacham on the side, to Dunn in the corner, back to Meacham, he shot and tallied. Coudy drove down the court, but the ball was stolen by Pitt Raymond who passed to Big John underneath, and the score- board read two more points. This continued for a long time until Coudy finally got a break and accidentally scored a couple of points. The crowd was in a frenzy not knowing what to expect next when suddenly Whippet Lyons was fiashing down the floor leaving opposing players in his wake and laying the ball up to score. In the second period, the Gators slowed down a bit, willing to save themselves for the second half. The second half found the Gamblemen shooting the works. However, the Falcons stif- fened and the Port Five had some competition. The scoring pace was terrific, and the Gators were beginning to enjoy the heat of battle when the buzzer ended their efforts. lncidentally, Coudersport took home the bacon. And we took some pictures of the basketball game. thirty-rwq THE FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA CONDUCTED A CENSUS OF ALL THE LIVE STOCK IN PORT ALLEGANY AND VICINITY.

Ya-nns de Milo, BASKETBALL SEASON HAD ENDED BUT THE TEAM HAD NEVER BEEN CAUGHT LIKE THIS. thirty-live AND MR. GAMBLE GAVE HIS RESUME OF THE SUCCESSFUL SEASON. I consider the past season a great success. The team came through with a 16 won- 6 lost which is the second best ever estab- lished at Port Allegany. For the first time in fourteen years, the boys managed to defeat Otto two times in the same season. The Gators were defeated in league play only three times. This feat won for them second place in the North Tier League. The final league game found Port and Smethport tied for Class B Honors. When the game was over, Port had become the Class B champions. The team went on to defeat Ridgway for the right to play the winner of the Southern Tier. The Southern Tier representative, Slippery Rock, and Port played at Brookville in the game which proved to be the grand finale for the Gators. Although the team was defeated, I was completely satisfied with their per- formance. I conclude with this one thought-in my estimation, this was one of the most worthy groups of boys that I have ever had the privilege to coach. THEN HE MADE A CALL FOR TRACK. thirty-six THE PROGRESS OF THE SCIENCE CLUB WAS HINDERED BY MR. RUD'S UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT. NEVERTHELESS, THE SCIENCE CLUB DID CON SIDERABLE RECORDING.

PORT ALLEGANY SUFFERED ANOTHER MISFORTUNE NVITH THE BURNING OF THE CHURCH STREET SCHOOL. thirty-seven WE WERE AFFECTED BY THE FIRE. Fortunately, the tire occurred during the middle of the night, and no one was injured. A week's vacation followed for all the students until arrangements were made to provide for the grade and junior high school pupils. We Senior High students enjoyed the single session days that followed for three weeks. We were glad, though, when things got back to normal. We had had to study twice as hard to make up for the time we were losing. The schedule for the assemblies had been disrupted and we didn't see many for the rest of the year.

Cherrington B.S. Mr. Cecil Gamble B.S. Mrs. Loraine Gillen A.B. Miss Margaret Kennedy B.S. Mr. Cherrington is the instructor of agriculture. He has organized a Future Farmers of America Club which is an organization of farm boys who have chosen agriculture as their vocation. He has helped to train the boys for rural leadership and for services to their community. Mr. Cherrington has a wonderful sense of humor which mem- bers of his classes will remember. Mr. Gamble is the athletic instructor of Port Allegany High School. He coaches basketball, track, and is the physical education teacher for the boys. Because of Mr. Garnble's excellent coaching, this year's basketball team was the most successful in the history of the school. Mr. Gamble will be remembered for his cheerfulness, enthusiasm concerning school functions, and helpfulness. Besides teaching French and Junior history, Mrs. Gillen is co-advisor of the Sophomore Class. Although she is quite strict, nevertheless she is one of Port's best liked teachers. We will best remember Mrs. Gillen for the quick tests she gave and the work she always had us make up. Mrs. Gillen has a word of good advice for any student in need of one. Miss Kennedy is one of the newest members of our facul- ty and came to PAHS this year. In this one year she has shown remarkable ability and has added much to our school work and especially to our extra-curricular activi- ties. Miss Kennedy teaches physical education, first aid, health, and general science. She is the cheer leaders' instructor and has organized a Sport's Club. We will remember her for her willingness to give us advice, guidance, and for her efforts to give the students a better school spirit in their many sport's activities. sixty-one sixty- two Miss Martha McFarland A.B. Mr. John Moyer B.M. Mrs. Henrietta Nadal B.S. Mrs. Hanna Nadolske B.S. Miss McFarland efficiently fills her position as librarian. She devotes most of her time to aid the students in pick- ing the best books to read. As an algebra teacher she gives encouragement to the students when they are ready to give up in despair. She is a pleasant person and is popular with all the students. The Port Allegany High School Band has had a very successful year under the direction of Mr. Moyer. Twenty- one members were chosen to represent Port Allegany at County Band and tive at District Band. The band has improved in appearance as well as in music because of Mr. Moyer's hard work in promoting a cam- paign for funds to buy new uniforms. He is popular with all the students. He is always willing to let the band provide music for programs. Mrs. Nadal, our vocal music instructor, came to Port this year. She is the leader of our Senior High Glee Club and has done much to promote music education in the entire school. She has made it possible for our school to be represented in county, district, and state festivals. Mrs. Nadolske teaches Latin and Junior English. She is co-advisor of the Senior Class and director of the Latin Club. In addition to these various tasks, this cooperative teacher directs the annual Senior play. Because of her efforts, a successful play was produced this year. Mrs. Nadolske has a charming personality and is popular with all the students. She will be remembered for her willing- ness to advise, and for her regard for the pupils. . 'ibn Lu. Mrs. Phalin B.S. N.C. Mr. Poole B.S. ' 5 ' A f . Mr. Rackish B.S. Mr. Rudzinsky B.S. Miss Swanson B.S. Mrs. Phalin, our commercial teacher, must be highly complimented for the excellent job she is doing in pre- paring the commercial students for a position in the business world. In addition to teaching the commercial subjects, she is the advisor for the Steno and Tri-Hi-Y Clubs. Because of her pleasing personality, she is well-liked by all the students. We are all sorry to hear that this will be her last year at Port Allegany. Mr. Poole will always be remembered for his skill as a football coach. He has coached many successful teams, this year's was outstanding. Besides coaching, Mr. Poole is the Sophomore history and Senior economics teacher. He is also the Sophomore co-advisor. The interesting discussions, sense of humor, and broad mindedness which he displays in his classes will always be outstanding in our minds. The class of ,52 is deeply indebted to Mr. Rackish for his helpful guidance and wise counsel in the preparation of this yearbook. His activities are many and varied. In addition to being one of the English instructors, he is assistant football coach, Tiger Lily advisor, Press Club advisor, and as co-advisor of the Senior Class, he has charge of Commencement. During the three years he has been here, he has given unsparingly of his time, energy, and talents for the good of the school and of the Senior Class. To enumerate the many achievements and abilities of our science and mathematics teacher would be a difficult task. Mr. Rudzinsky is one of our most likeable teachers. He was greatly missed by both the students and the faculty after being hospitalized from an unfortunate accident. Mr. Rudzinsky teaches chemistry, physics, algebra, trigo- nometry, and solid geometry. Besides being one of the Junior class advisors, he has organized a Science and Chess Club. Miss Swanson is one of our Commercial teachers. Perhaps she will be best remembered for the enthusiasm she has shown for all the athletic events. Also we will remember her for her willingness to aid those students who were puzzled with their work. She is a likeable person and always has a friendly greeting for all. sixty- three sixty-four MR. FRED HARDY B.S. Supervising Principal Mr. Hardy, as everyone knows, is the supervising principal of the Port Allegany Schools. However, not everyone is aware of what it means to hold such a position. Patience, understanding, benignant attitude, a general outlook for student welfare, and the ability to make wise decisions are only a few traits which are essential in the orderly administration of this office. Mr. Hardy possesses all these qualities and many more. Because he does, he is an asset to us. The individual, as well as the student body, benefits by the personal advice and assist- ance of Mr. Hardy. Mr. Hardy is a man to be truly commend- ed for his years of diligent and faithful service. MR. BATES B.S. M.S. Principal, Senior High School Mr. Bates has instructed pupils of PAHS for twenty-two years. His subjects are plane geometry and biology. Although he has much work to do as principal of our high school, Mr. Bates has taken time to organize the Biology Club. He is also an advisor of the junior Class.

J. WILLIAMS Port Allegany, Justice of the Peace Broad Street x HERE IS OUR ALMA MATER Although Yale has always favored The violet's dark blue, And the gentle sons of Harvard To the crimson rose are true, We will own the lily slender, Nor honor shall it lack While Port Hi stands defender of The Orange and the Black. Through the four long years of high school Mid the scenes we know so well, As the mystic charm to knowledge We vainly seek to spell. Or we win athletic victories On the football field and track, Still we work for dear old Port Hi and The Orange and the Black. When the cares of life o'ertake us Mingling fast our locks with gray, Should our dearest hopes betray us False fortune fall our wayg Still we banish care and sadness As we turn our memories back, And recall those days of gladness 'Neath the Orange and the Black.
