It not only trains pupils to assume responsibilities, but it trains students tor leadership. The activities establish in the minds ot pupils a sense ot accomplishment, social ease, and in a broader sense, entertainment with time used to their advantage. By participating in these activities, stu- dents are helping to promote the weltare ot their school. It has well been said that a man can readily be judged by the Way he used his leisure time. The activities have a tremendous influence on the character ol an individual. Participating in extra-curricular activities, not only develops high ideals tor the individual, but it attords relaxation from routine work. Therefore, to these activities ot Shade Twp. High School we dedicate this book, our Shadonian ot nineteen hundred and torty-tour. PART CNE WHO WE ARE! THE ADMINISTRATICN They Guide Our Course Although many members ot the school board did not have the opportunity to receive a high school education, we appre- ciate their willingness and the hard work they are doing to help us advance in educational opportunities. We realize the great sacrifices they are making in order to keep the school suc- cessfully in operation. As ships are guided by their crew so are we guided by our teachers. When men go astray in the ocean they go to the navigator tor help. Our teachers are, to us, navigators, tor when a problem arises, naturally the teachers are the ones to keep us on the right course. We never miss the water till the well goes dry, can be applied to us and our teachers. We tail to realize their import- ance until we are out ot school and need help that we could get only, from someone in their position. To the teachers ot Shade We dedicate this section ot the Shadonian. SHADE TOWNSHIP BOARD OF EDUCATION HARRIS REITZ HARRY LEHMAN FRANK SHAFFER President Vice-President Secretary ARCHIE MANGES EARL BECKER CLARENCE OTT Treasurer IAMES M. MILLER I MR. L. S. WILLIAMS A. B. and M. A. Bucknell University University of Pittsburgh On Mr. Williams shoulders rests the many responsi- bilities of our school. He has done a great deal to make cmd keep SHADE TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL a name never to be forgotten by hundreds of students who have graduated from our school. We, seniors, therefore, at this time, wish to express our sincere ap- preciation and gratitude for the many acts of kindness he has shown us. It is a great comfort to be able to go to someone who has authority, when a particular problem of im- portance arises. There are, we regret to say, some students who feel that you only go to the office when you have been disobedient. This, indeed, is a false idea for Mr. Williams is glad to help solve any problems or just to have a friendly talk with students when they feel in need of his advice.

We spoke through them of everything that inter- ested us. And this year, more than ever, we found so many things ot interest. The SHADONIAN kept us busy since the begin- ot school. Under the leadership of our sponsor and editor, we learned about choosing important subjects, we learned about following a central idea, We tried to make our book technically perfect, and we met the printer's deadline The SHADARROW helped us realize the importance ot cooperation. Each person was dependent upon the other. Each department: News, sports, features, and gossip was organized within itself, yet each de- partment worked for student interest in the paper, and for prompt publication. We feel that both publications do credit to our school. 'Q . is 9 ,ij-if iq 6 e 5 f tw 1 W I .1 -. Q X 'ii V V i' 7 7 ' - We . H, , M , ji . j 5 , Publish if is f s ? ,gr i W E . A . it Q SFT .

For the first time in our yearbook's history, the cover is of white background instead of the tradi- tional blue. The school colors, however will appear on the cover also. There was also a change in the number of staff members. More literary editors were chosen because of the increase in editorial work. ln order to insure the next year's staff against com- plete inexperience, two members of the junior class were added to the staff. Unlike most schools, Shade's book is published by the senior class. This accounts for the traditional senior staff and the absence of un- derclass helpers. Pictures, too, have changed consid- erably in size and arrangement this year. For the first time in the history of the school, all grades above the sixth are represented by individual pictures. Also new picture placement was itnroduced this year to give the book a less formal appearance to economize on space. Since the cost of printing the book was in- creased, it was necessary to charge more for each book. This year, the scarcity of films caused the great- est hardship. ln spite of difficulties, this second war-time publi- cation was made possible through the cooperation and work of every member of the staff. Next year's staff will have more battles to fightg but they have the 1944 staff's confidence that Shade will always have a fine yearbook. Publish The News I Il Editor-in-Chief .,,... ......,......

Bollerhey Sponsor-Ianet Kimball Through hard work and cooperation, high goals were reached this term by the Shadarrow staff. The sale of a great number ot subscriptions, good profit on the sale oi chances for candy, and several new ads, gave the Shadarrow a fine start: the momen- tum never slackened. One oi the first improvements in the make-up of the Shadarrow was the addition oi an extra sheet. Also almost every edition contained one or two pictures: iour oi teachers and students who had gone to the Armed Service, one ot the Minstrel Show cast, and one oi the play cast. New features,-Students ot the Month, Teachers of the Month, and Letters to the Editor. The Sixty-tour dollar Question, was added to the paper this year. Another aim was to popularize the school paper, so that students would look forward to its publication. Emphasis was placed on heart-interests, hobby-in- terests, and school fun. As a result the circulation went up, and students everywhere read the Shadarrow. Through editorials, and student letters to the editor, interest in student government was aroused. The edi- tor's purpose tor the year was to iniorm students about student councils. The importance of this project cannot be over-estimated: for all through the year Shade stu- dents met to talk over the problems ot student govern- ment, and to build a solid foundation for such an organization. SENIORS OF '44 The Senior Class of forty-four Was good or better than those before. This simple tact no one disputes 'Cause everyone can see the truths. For Wasn't the class of forty-tour Endowed with talented students galore? Weren't they voted most likely to succeed Because of their character, valor and deed? For Wasn't there Iulie, Vino, Gerry, and Krol Who studied. to be on the honor roll? These people unusual were only some To name them all, I'cl never get done! Now think of our sports in fall and in spring The goals and the baskets that made our gang ring With pep and with vim we backed our fine teams To victories earned, to scores of our dreams. Remember the motto, We grew as we go? Remember the wisdom. in our Shadarrow? Remember the fun, worked out with a zest We had on our stage to the time of our best. A day may soon come when perchance you may meet Some of our seniors upon the street Stay for awhile and don't pass them by- These students the seniors of Shade Township High. -By' Genevieve Lee Petrosky THE FINE ART DEPARTMENT PROVIDES INTEREST FOR ALL This year, we accomplished a variety ot things with our band, our orchestra, and our art classes, The band really was an addition to school activities with its tricky tield marches at tootball time, its assembly programs, and its basketball tooting. The orchestra, With becoming dignity, played at our more formal functions-Musical comedy Pickles, senior play, Growing Pains, and commencement. Again, a varied program was planned in the art department. The cratts, basket Weaving, and leather Work, were a source ot interest to many students. All ot us learned to observe the things about us and express our ideas in oils, charcoal, and water color.

WE HAVE A BAND ln the past year the Shade High School band has made much progress. Under the leadership of Mr. Fluke the organization has sponsored three hit shows, an operetta, a minstrel, and a mock wedding. The money that was earned at these shows was used in the Uniform Fund. The amount needed for the uniforms was Sl,100.00. The Minstrel Show was presented on Friday, Nov- ember l2th in the High School auditorium. A matinee was held for the high school students only and an evening performance was held for all who wished to attend. This brought 51312.00 into the Fund. The Shade Lion's Club presented a hilarious Womanless Wedding on Monday, February 28th at 8 o'clock in Shade's auditorium. The men with their feminine attire and their Look what Zeigfeld missed -legs had the audience in stitches. The profit of this show which amounted to 5185.80 was presented to the band, making the fund total S497.U0. On March 10th the Operetta, Pickles was pre- sented. In this, many talented singers of Shade were discovered. Pickles was a musical comedy in three acts, filled with mystery, music, and madness. This show was also a howling success and increased the fund immensely. The uniforms were first displayed at the Spring concert. The band members looked very stunning in their military type uniforms. The jackets are royal blue trimmed in gold and the trousers are French blue with a blue stripe set off by gold. The military hat has S. T. H. S. printed on the front oi it. A gold braid merit will be awarded to all members who earn them according to the standard set up by Mr. Fluke.

An effort has been made, with gratifying results, to discover student originality, which brightened the whole year in the Art class. The Special Art class achieved beauty in water- color, chalk, charcoal, and oil mediums. Occasionally, an interesting abstraction caused a hub-bub of special art class comment. This group also sponsored a spring erhibitg they encouraged grade-school, alumni, and neighborhood professional artists to enter the show. In the junior high, emphasis on free hand expression in charcoal resulted in lovely, simple and strong com- positions. Many students found fields of interest in the crafts. Study and practice in puppetry was made available. Hand turned key cases and coin purses were ex- hibited with pride by the leather workers, Humor, de- sign, and line appreciation was noted at the end of the clay-modeling project. In basketry, many of the trays, flower and fruit baskets would have done credit to professional craftsmen. 7 Then when the nationally known Windber artist Lawrence Whitaker, visited the art students, they re- sponded with careful attention and enthuiastic ques- tions. Mr. Whitaker spoke on realism in art, the im- portance of line drawing, and the advantages of pub- lic school instruction in art, After his talk, the students came to him with questions on all phases of art work, They found him helpful and gracious. All in all, the art year was a satisfying one. Despite the difficulty in obtaining some of the ma- terials, despite many overly busy times, the students point to a happy year in their original art expressions GROWING The Four Principals-Brubaker, THE ENTIRE PAINS Stuttt, Wascovich, Burke CAST George Mclntyre Terry Mclntyre ,,,.

The problems and troubles it told about were so much like our own that we laughed at ourselves. We shall always remember Terry's sobs and Georges complicated love-lite. Mrs. Mc- Intyre helped ease the growing pains and the Professor battled us with his use ot big words. Every actor seemed to enjoy his part and we could see ourselves through each new plot complication. WE BELIEVE IN GOOD PORT As another chapter in Shade Township High School's pro- gram ot sports draws to a close, we look back and ponder over the many battles we have encountered in the realm ot sports. Under the leadership ot Coach Lee Kipp, the football team won three out of its tour games. We encountered little trouble in downing elevens trom Franklin, Boswell, and Conemaugh Township. Although we lost to Windber, Portage, Adam's Town- ship, and Portage Township, we tound some consolation in be- ing the only team to score 14 points against Windber. Even though only six lettermen will be reporting lor practice next tall, Shade's chances lor a better lootball team will not be dampened. The basketball picture is a story of many victories: the Shade tive chalked up eleven winners and nine defeats. Shortly alter basketball season opened, Coach Miller took over the duties ot Coach Kipp who was inducted in the Army. Coach Kipp has since been granted a medical discharge. lt was a season full ot surprises. Shades unexpected triumph over Friedens was the lirst victory over a Friedens quintet in eight years. We also set a new milestone when we defeated Conemaugh Township tor the tirst time in the history of Shade Township basketball. All in all it has been a program tilled with thrills and spills, but never a dull moment came to the sport spectators. Here's luck in the seasons to come, and a wish tor as much lun as we had. ,Q WHOLE SQUAD LEFT TO RIGHT-Bottom Row: Huston, Domogola, Chicager, Krol, Biszick, Stine, Evano, Furioso, Kritzer, Lichvar, Trzok.

WE HAVE CLUBS The clubs ot Shade High School have done much to build the morale ot the student body. After studying hard, going to classes and reciting assignments, a club meeting is a great reliet to the students. Other than being a place ot relaxation, and socialibility, a club is an organization designed to teach non-text-book subject matter. Since most ot the clubs are rather small, the teachers have more time to work with individual stu- dents. Because ot the shortages ot certain materials, there are fewer clubs this year. However, atter the war, these clubs will once more be resumed.

Another aim of the club is to serve the school. Last year the club made a service flag for Shade Township High School servicemen. One gold star was placed on this flag for each man killed in action. This year the club plans to do some work toward beautifying the school grounds. The club also participates in the Red Cross Sewing program.

WE PLAY SAFE This year, our Safety Patrol, carried on the good work of last year's patrol. Acting as ushers at special events in the auditorium was the main duty of the girl's patrol. Their captain was Verna Adominick. The boys, whose leader was Llewellyn Kenno, had charge of the pupils' safety while crossing streets. Both the boys and girls did a fine job of keeping the spectators back of the lines at the football games. lf, and when, our school would be subject to an air- raid, fire, or some other disaster, the patrol would be ready to act immediately. The Safety Patrol has served our school in so many different ways that it has become an indis- pensable activity. WE HAVE A BROAD REALM QF EXPERIENCES The articles and pictures appearing in this section reveal to the readers much ot the intellectual, as well as the social lite ot our school. They show that school is a place tor play as well as tor work and that the pupils are getting a broad and varied education. Some features also show the cooperation ot the school and the students in the attairs ot the government. It may seem that this section is like the ten cent grab bag counters or sur- prise package counters, where anything that cannot be gotten rid ot in any other way can be sold by working on our sense ot curiosity and that these articles were placed here just out ot respect. However this is tar from the truth, tor every article here printed reveals an interest in many things beyond what has been or could have been shown in any ot the other sections. May we be able to continue this section through the rest ot these hardest years ot yearbook publishing, in order that it may not be done away with atter the war and be expanded instead.

The total proceeds of 5330.80 will be used to help buy uniforms for the school band. WE HAVE FUN DANCING This year the senior class, in an effort to bring more students out on the dance floor at noon, went to the trouble of buying a selection of popular hit songs in a day and age of hard-to-get records. And their efforts were not in vain, for it has been estimated that there were more underclassmen jivin' at lunch- hour than at any other year in the history of Shade noon dancing. One of the reasons for this grand turn- out was the fact that music-classes were no longer held in the auditorium and the students had access to the whole floor. In order to encourage hesitant be- ginners, fewer seats were placed on the side lines. Then, too, selection of records was up-to-date and complete to the nth degree. Sinatra, the Dorsey brothers, Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller, Boogie-Woogie kings WANDA CABL If anyone but Willy had asked me to a club dance I may have been able to feel romantic, but with Willy it just wasn't possible. Willy was 5 feet, 4 inches, a little squirt, and decidedly a simpleton. But I made up my mind to go, and finally the momentous occa- sion arrived. I was dressed in a white, flimsy material called tulle, and under yards of this was a skirt of satin. I had wanted something more substantial, but Mother thought I was substantial enough and the gown could be a little thin. The dance was held at a swanky place called The Oak Palace. All along the walls were arranged pieces of wood at irregular intervals. I think they were supposed to represent made their appearance by proxy. There was even an epidemic of cutting-ing and, when Leap Year gal- loped in, the girls did daring turn about and cut-in on the boys. There still could have been many more boys out on the floor and, of course, most of these groups are underclassmen. However, on the whole, the noon-dancing for 1943-1944 was considered a positive success. The business of underclassmen wallflowers tof their own choosingl has been and probably will always exist until a new spirit is adopted. No criticism is meant, however, and, generally speaking, boogie Woogie reigns supreme. To sum it up, all that can be said is that it has been fun and entertainment, and nobody really knows this better than all the kids who got out on the floor and did the dancing! E ON WILLY oak trees. Some of the girls leaned agaisnt them and looked very delicate and lovely, but when I tried to imitate them I just felt silly. It was while I was danc- ing with Willy to a sentimental tune, that an elderly gentleman stepped on the hem of my skirt and ripped it from the waist. Although I was seething inside, I calmly walked up to him and stuck my nose an inch from his own demanding nose, indelicately, Lis- ten, toitle neck, what are you doing on the dance floor? Playin' hop scotch? I thought the age limitlwas sixty- five. I did not recognize the man as the manager until Willy feebly pulling at my arm. We made a speedy I felt Willy feebly pulling at my arm. We made a speedy club dance. WE BUY A JEEP Buy a Part for Our Ieepf' Your bond or stamp starts a jeep down the ramp. These sayings have grown to be familiar with the students as well as the faculty of the Shade Township High School, as our school has just completed the largest undertaking of the year. The school cooperated to the fullest extent. Every boy and girl showed a' real interest in this special drive and proved to all that he was capable and willing to see through to the end something he started.

One fine day in the second week of December, Mr. Hostetler, home room teacher of the 12B section, de- cided that it was about time something was done to increase the sales of the jeep drive. He stood before the class this fine morning and seriously talked to his section about the campaign. It was then decided unanimously that the 12B section should challenge the 12A section in a war-bond-selling contest. 12A with a flare of trumpets and a flying of colors accepted the challenge. On the last morning of the drive, there was knock- ing on doors, rushing through halls trying to boost the sales, and competition ran high. At approximately five minutes before the close of the drive, the totals of the competing groups stood as follows: 12A-5915.005 12B-584400, but not for long. A sale of a 5500.00 bond was made by the 12A section, boosting its total to 5l415.00g thus ending the drive and completing the challenge. Although the 12B section lost, they took it on the chin like good sports and wish to extend their congratulations to Section 12A for their splendid work. When the Fourth War Loan Drive was held, Shade's students were right in there, pitchin' again. In the auditorium, at the February assembly, again challenges were made. The junior class, represented by Robert Kritzer challenged the senior class, repre- sented by Maurice Tremel, to a bond selling contest. The challenge was accepted and, again, the rush was on. This was followed by a similar contest between the freshmen and sophomore classes. n All students cooperated fully, scraping up every cent possible in order to Back the Attack. Money was collected at any time during the week, but war stamps and bonds were distributed on Tues- days only. This eliminated a lot of confusion and work on the part of the teacher. Shade has, and will do everything possible to help end this war and bring about a sooner and surer victory.

WE LEARN ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES On September fourteenth, Dr. Diasdodo Yap, a na- tive of the Philippines, gave a talk in the Shade High School Auditorium concerning those islands. Students from the eighth to the twelfth grades attended the address. Dr. Yap is an instructor at the George Washing- ton University, and is the edtior and publisher of a magazine entitled Bataan. Dr. Yap is interested in the views of today's young people, for, as he said, they are to become the leaders in the future. Dr. Yap made these opening statements, The boys and girls of other parts of the world are deprived of in the United enjoying our America? our privileges here in America. People States, whether citizens or aliens are freedoms. Aren't you proud to live in stated that his In his talk on the Philippines, Dr. Yap country is composed of 7,0911 islands. These islands were under the American flag from August 13, 1898 until May 9, 1942. He said that the attack of the Iapan- ese was quite a stab in the back to the Philippines, because in four more years their final independence from the United States was to be granted. Dr. Yap also said that the stand that the American and Philippino soldiers made against the Iapanese is without equal, that their bravery, courage, and determination can- not be matched. After his address, Dr. Yap answered any questions the teachers or students wished to ask. Some of the queries asked were: Dr. Yap's opinion about Post- War Peacep what should be done with the Iapanese if we win this warg will the Philippinos be given their independence in 1946 if we win the warg should we concentrate our attack on Iapang description of Corrige- adorg what is rationing like in the Philippine Islands. Dr. Yap attended the senior's problems of democ- racy class, and answered many questions concerning every day problems. WE, THE SPIRIT BEHIND THE TEAM Shade's sport season began with as high spirit as ever. With the past years cheerleaders taking charge, cmd several teachers chaperoning, football rallies be- came a night of yelling, singing, and parading each night before a game. Under the leadership of lean Serino, and with Pearl Rajtik, Magdalene Nestranski, Doris Blackburn, Russell Fetters, and Ray Iohnson, the rallies were enjoyed by all. The band was appreciated as a morale-booster. With the band blasting, cheerleaders yelling, and the fans croaking, the boys were really put in the mood. During the football season, new cheerleaders from the lower grades were elected, Students from seventh, eighth, and ninth grades were given try-outs which were led by lean Serino and Pearl Ratjik. They were judged by several teachers who acknowledged their ability in leading cheers, their pep, and their past record in attending games. Those elected were Myrna Cable, Elizabeth Moxim, Ann Degory, and Elizabeth Stokes. They proved their ability at the basketball games where they acted as leaders. Iean Serino and Magdalene Nestranski, both seniors, leave the cheering squad with peppy, able leaders for next year. WE SHOW OUR TALENT FOR ACTING Pickles, a musical comedy in three acts, was given in the Shade High School Auditorium on March 10th, at 8:00 P. M. Under the direction of Mr. Fluke and with the help of the entire faculty, Pickles was worked into a big hit. The setting for Pickles, was in old Viennag it was the story of an American Millionaire pickle manu- facturer who arrived in Vienna with his daughter, amidst preparations for the annual carnival. An old acquaintance, a wealthy English woman, also arrived as her annual guest in search of her long-lost daugh- ter. Events led up to the happy reunion of mother and daughter. Vocal parts were given to the following students: Ilona, Louise Graci, Iune Pennington, Jean Serino, Lady Vivian Delancy, Ianet Gearhartg Ionas H. Pennington, Iohn Krolg Arthur Crelont, Iohn Naugleg Iigo, Mike Chicagerg I. Iennison Iones, Roy Huston: and Hans Maier, Daniel Domogola. The remaining cast was Louisa Mary Ondichg Captain Kinski, Bob Kritzerg Bumski, Denton Shafferg Rumski, Vincent Stufft, and two waiters, Victor Hoyecki and Angelo Rizzo. Musi- cal background was furnished by the chorus and or- chestra. THE MOST INTERESTING THING IN MY HOUSE The most interesting thing in my house is a bright- colored shawl which my mother brought from Hun- gary. Her mother got it when she was a little girl, and mother thinks my grandmother's mother had it be- fore her. It is a yard wide and a yard and a half long. I am always surprised to see it's beautiful de- sign spread over our kitchen table. fThat's on the rare occasions when mother gets it out to show it to usl. I first remember seeing it when my sister, pretending she was the Queen of Sheba, draped it majestically over her pretty shoulders. Once when I was very unhappy because I had lost my favorite toy gun, mother took me on her comfortable lap and wrapped me in our beautiful, old shawl. I just loved the special feeling I had when its soft colors helped me forget my troubles. Mother says she occa- sionally wrapped us kids in our shawl just to help smooth over our worries. This shawl is all wool too, and it has every color you can think of in it. In fun once, I called it, Ioseph's coat of many colors, that pleased my mother very much and she smiled proudly. When my pals, Bill Weber or Ioe Kelley start brag- ging about their fine souvenirs from the world's fair, I just remember our old shawl. -Bill Zugrovich SWEET SIXTEEN Sweet Sixteen is an age that impresses me most because it is the in between ageg a period of lite when one is either too old to do one thing or too young to do another. This is an age that everyone MUST pass through, and I assure you it's not a very pleasant one at that. I remember the day I became sixteeng to me it was a glorious day. It meant that I could enter into grown up discussions and most important of all I could powder my nose as I had often seen Sister Betty do. But disappointment came my way. Aunt Sara expressed annoyance and Uncle Will gave sermons against the painted, modern beau- ty. Well, I let that pass! I didn't mind, very much, but my woman's intuition told me that the boys pre- fer powder and a faint touch of perfume, so I was MEMORIES THAT ARE Many everyday memories long since gone by, still linger with me. I wish only to write of the sweet, brilliant memories. I'll never forget that bright, shining summer day, when four of us kids went for a hike and got lost. We had our parents in great fear all day until my dad found us up by the fire-tower having a grand time. I'll never forget the day Ianet, my Broth- er Bill, Cousin Alice, and I went on our first fishing trip. We had a glorious time, but we came home with wet feet and mud splattered over our clothes. I'm no exception when it comes to our early teen-age first heart interest. I first met Ioe at my cousin's twenty- first birthday party. Except for his height, he just fitted determined to follow my convictions. Oh yes, six- teen is the awkward age! On the other hand, playing with dolls is considered child's play, but how else can one pass away leisure time when one is regarded as being too young to go out on dates, or too old to play with dolls and read funny books. About the only thing left to do is sit with folded hands and stay mum like the little man who wasn't there. The wearing of your first gown, the changing of hair-dos and the memory of that first kiss feven though Cousin Ronny gave it to youl all add grandeur to this wonderful, strange age. Written by Iulia Harry Senior IZB, 1944 UNFORGETABLE TO ME my description of a Romeo His twinkling brown eyes, flashy white teeth, and deep bass voice still haunt my memories. The first night swimming party I went to is as vivid in my mind as last night's movie. My first formal dance was an excitable one. When I entered Mission Inn with my escort, I could feel my poise melting away. After a few dances and introduc- tions, my confidence came surging back. I'm reluctant in shutting out these sweet memories, but I must, be- cause I know all of you have your own to recall. Written by Sylvia Phillips Senior l2B, l944 WE ARE INTERESTED IN GQVERNING OURSELVES Because of expressed interest in student govern- ment, an assembly program was arranged to debate the subject. A body of teacher judges decided, after hearing both sides, that Shade Township High School should have a student council. Student interest con- tinued. Geraldine Wascovich, editor of the Shadarrow, felt that the subject of student government was worth writing about. She splashed our school newspaper with editorials on the subject. Other students became in- terested. Finally, meetings were held with the express purpose of explaining student government to the studnts. But the subject was more complicated than it seemed. Because Shade had had one unsuccessful ex- perience in student government, some students were skeptical, others sat on the well-known fence, others were sure of student government worth. Meetings were held and representatives from all three groups came: class representatives came too, and club presidents. Most of the meetings were taken up with discussion and careful explanation. The idea that student government means taking over the school had to be erased from the majority minds. Shade's plan is to gain freedom through discipline. Shade students wants to take one small responsibility and handle it successfully. In fact, it is the belief of the student council minded students that a line of successful projects behind the group points to more responsibility and more freedom. A student council will be established at Shape Township High School, but at this writing it is in the formative and controversial stage.

He has also relinquished his position as instructor of the junior high health to answer Uncle Sam's call. Mr. Kipp graduated from Shade Township High School in the class of 1931. He attended Lock Haven College and graduated from the In- diana State Teachers' College where he received his B. S. degree in edu- cation. Mr. Kipp became Shade's athletic coach in l942. His hearty chuckle and laughing blue eyes were missed by all-the students and faculty. JUNIOR LEAVES SHADE Iohn Sady, a member of the Iunior Class, left Shade Township High School and enlisted in the U. S. Navy, October 26, 1943. Iohn, who was a quiet, reserved lad, was an all around guy, who had a cheery word for everyone. He paled around with Ioe Nagy and Philip Furioso and could be seen quite often at Wilson's newsstand in Central City. We were sorry to see him go and wish him great success in his future task. EMMA Mahlerl BARTA Emma has been the school secretary for the last two terms. In the eighth grade, she passed the examination with the highest honors in Somerset County. She was graduated from Shade High School in l942 as an honor student. Emma is really Mrs. Peter Barta. Her soldier husband, now stationed in England, filled the position of Shade's secretary before his induction. Emma then took over her husband's work with an efficiency and friendliness that we appreciate.

Fluke's Flabbergasted Five and Frank are: Bob Kritzer, Vincent Stufft, Denton 'Shaffer, Olga Trimeloni, Frank Sobieski, and Sylvia Neuman. Kritzer displayed a brilliant trumpet technique, comparable only to Harry Iames, while Stufft provided the harmony on the silver DAD IS Dad is my ideal. He is five feet, five inches of boyish fun. His twinkling gray-green eyes and unruly chestnut colored hair seem hidden from strangers who think him quiet and reserved. I know better.

We try to make her feel like an English lady. Dad makes a perfect butler and I follow after as her maid-in-wait ing. You should see Dad in an organdy apron all set to serve mother's birthday cake! He plays tricks on sister too. He pulls her hair and tweeks her ear when trombone and Shaffer showed his talent by playing his melodious saxaphone. Trimeloni beat out the rhythm on the drums, Sobieski slapped the old bass, and Neu- man held them in the groove. The swing band made its debut at the Sophomore- Senior party held on February ll. It was an immediate sensation. The students begged for more. It is our hope that this swing band will continue in the future. Y IDEAL she's in her most serious moments. But Dad is not al- ways the prankster. He listens to my complaints and troubles with sincere respect. He says, Well, I'd do it this way, but you do as you think best. The little knowledge I have about the happenings of this war was taught to me by Dad. In the evenings as he reads the newspaper, he relates the highlights to me. II find it more interesting this wayl. As I scramble through magazines for Shadarrow jokes, it is always Dad who comes to the rescue. He's my pal: he understands my world. Dad is for me-perfection. -Geraldine Wascovich WE ARE AIR-MINDED A pre-flight aeronautics course was offered for the first time this year at the Shade Township High School. Those interested in aviation or Air Corps were particu- larly interested. The course included principles of airplane construc- tion, Civil Aeronautics Administration regulations, aero- dynamics, aircraft engines, meterology and air navi- gation. In studying principles of airplane construction, the types of aircraft, and the recognition of aircraft was stressed, with emphasis on the characteristics which distinguish different aircraft. Also the things that must be taken into consideration in the construction and de- signing of an airplane were studied carefully. The Civil Aeronautics Administration regulations were taught with careful attention of detail. The boys learned the air traffic regulations on Civil airways, and the requirements of pilot and plane certification. The controls of a plane, the operation in taking off, flight, and landing were studied. The principles of aircraft engines, and the char- WE GET TOGETHER The Biology Club Christmas party was held Decem- ber 17th, in the high school auditorium. The following committees were chosen: the Christmas tree committee, Bob Cassidy and Dean Powell, the Christmas tree dec- orators, Helen Stopa, Doris Blackburn, Patty LaBuda, Betty Lou Salonish and George Surap the General Dec- oration committee, Andy Stroka, Iay Powell, Helen Nes- transkig the Welcome committee, Leona Leasock and acteristics of the different types used was covered in the course. It is necessary for any one who flies to be able to tell certain things about the weather-weather expect- ancy and weather variability. In order to acquaint stu- dents with atmospheric conditions, weather forecast re- ports and maps were diagnosed. A pilot must know how to find his route from one air field to another and he can't always depend on fol- lowing visible objects on the ground. So navigation is a necessary part of any pilot's training. A pilot must be able to fly from one point to another by either pi- loting or dead reckoning. This phase of the sub- ject too was covered thoroughly. So much material was covered that the senior boys were bewildered by the scope of the course. And yet, the aeronautics course was designed to give students the broad point of view with no attempt at specializa- tion. Next year it is hoped that girls will be admitted to the course, since their position in the aviation field is becoming increasingly important. FOR CHRISTMAS FUN Mildred Hawrylakg the Specialty-Favor committee, Dor- othy Roman, Theresa Petrocy, Blanche Tomasine, Frank Loner and Matilda Domagolag the Music com- mittee, Veronica Chizmar and Cecelia Berkebile, and the Clean-up committee, all left-overs and anyone who volunteered. Free refreshments were served. The enter- tainment consisted of dancing and games. Only the members of the present Biology Club and of the club of last year were admitted to the party. WE LOSE A TEACHER A twenty-one gun salute to Mr. Delmont Sebring, former Shade Town- ship High School teacher who has enlisted in tlie Navy. Mr. Sebring had been part of our faculty staff for the past two years, but as one of the assistants to Coach Kipp, and as tenth grade history and ninth grade civics instructor, he had become well liked by all the students. Tall, well built, with curly black hair, and black eyes, his figure became a familiar one in the halls and in the shower rooms. The students and faculty of Shade would like to express their wishes for your safety and health, Mr. Sebring. WE TALK TURKEY The Iunior Class held a Thanksgiving party on Nov- ember l9th, in the Shade High School auditorium at 8 o'clock. New records on the juke box made dancing enjoyable to all swingsters. An original mince pie walk was one of the features of the evening. The pie went to Roy Thompson and Iean Serino. Fred Huston and Bill llarner acted as callers for the square dancing. Raymond Chiappelli, Mr, Hostetler, Lee Small, and Archie Scaife provided the music. Everyone was given a big yellow apple, a bottle of soda, and some pretzels. A real live turkey attended the partyg and during the latter part of the evening was raffled off by the Iunior Class. Mrs. Sadlon of 4th Street, Cairnbrook was the lucky winner of this 18 pound turkey. The football team and the coaches attended the party as guests of the Iunior Class. After intermission the crowd gave several cheers and sang the Alma Mater. At the door a slip of paper with Thanksgiving terms, such as pumpkin, cranberries, Miles Standish, etc., was pinned on each person. After the intermission, a chance drawing proved Helen Law to be the winner of the door prize-a box of chocolates. Helen was wear- ing cranberry sauce very attractively that evening. Checkers, ping-pong, and cards were played by the students who did not dance. Everyone who attended, enjoyed an evening pa-ked full of fun and unexpected happenings. WE SAY MERRY CHRISTMA December 17th dated the annual Christmas party held in the high school auditorium from .8:UU to ll:30 P. M. The students witnessed a gaily decorated audi- torium, which included a tree with hand-made orna- ments and a mistletoe arch which proved to be an interesting attraction. The Senior Class, sponsors of the Christmas party, enjoyed the pop-corn parties held previous to this event. These were held at the homes of Iean Serino and Linda Roman. Red and green sugar syrup was added to the pop-corn to make it attractive. Mrs. Tremel's home economics department helped with the project. Bright-colored cones, filled with candied pop-corn was the result. These cones furnished the ornaments for the tree. The candy walk was another high-light of the eve- ning. Delmont Whited and Marge Bestvina carried off the chocolates. The Senior Class chanced off an 18-pound turkey and a fruti cake at the party. The turkey went to Mrs. LaBuda ot Central City, and the cake went to Bill Williams from Reels Corner. Santa Claus didn' tlet anyone down at the Christ- mas party whfn he carrie and distributed the refresh- ments. 1 -N SENIOR BOYS LEAVE SHADE Because of the war, Shade seniors, in mid-year, have lost, or shall we say, loaned two boys to Uncle Sam. Delmont Whited cmd Chester Zgetts answered the call. Our class suffered, but we send to them well wishes in their countries' duties. Yike was one of the most active members of the senior class. He was immensely proud of his ialopy which usually bulged at the sides with the gang. Always one to get accomplished what he started, Yike was intensely interested in seeing the student council become a success. The best description that we can give for Ches is, regular fel- 1ow. He was always ready and willing to help anyone in need of his assistance. He acted as exchange editor of the Shadarrow, and was al- ways kept busy with his newspaper or some kind of work. Very interested in art and music, Ches was a member of the Special Art class and played clarinet in the band for three years. We were sorry to see our classmates leave us, but we realize their importance to a great cause. As our Shade boys answered the call of the colors, we students and teachers wish them the best of luck. OFF TO COLLEGE WE SEND THEM Frank Sobieski and Maurice Tremel, left their studies at Shade on February 4 in order to enter the February class at the University of Pittsburgh, Iohnstown Center. Frank intends to take the engineering course. He was the editor-in-chief of the Shadonian, the year- book, and business manager of the Shadarrow, Frank was found usually in the art room, and was frequently called the Mad Artist by his pals. His two paintings, Conflict and Eroica were some of his outstanding artistic works. Maurice, or better known as Pete, is taking the pre- medical course. Pete was the president of the class in his junior year and was the vice-president this year. He was Mr. Interlocutor in the minstrel show which was given by the band. Pete was the drum major of the band in his senior year. One of the jivers at the school parties and at noon-time, was Pete. The two seniors took the academic course at Shade, and were among the outstanding members of their class. The class, fellow students, and faculty wish you luck and success in your new field of studies. SYLVIA EATS, DRINKS, AND IS MERRY I am a confirmed Epicurean in my tastes. The feel of fine clothes on my back or between my finger-tips invokes a purring sensation in me from my head to my toes. A full, colorfully-set table with its pungent, house-wandering odors stimulates and please my whole person. I have always cherished the dream of eating incomparable foods in quaint, little restaurants in an atmosphere of candle-lights, checked tablecloths, and dark walnut woodwork. I love the touch and smell of the ink, thin-paged books, whose finely printed words jump up at me when I browse through them. Nothing can soothe me more completely than either playing a piece of music myself or listening to it. I love all music from the rhythmical, sensual jazz of a top swing band to the romantic, heart-twisting, melodic solos of a flute. A symphony with its full, complete, and brilliant vibration overwhelms me. I revel in the smart, crackling wit of a gay, fast crowd as much as I enjoy an intimate, serious conversation with good friends. I do not scorn at those brave people I know who have chosen the hard, brave life of a stoicp I merely admire them for their cold strength and then thank dear fate that it chose to make me an Epicurean.

None of the Pollyanna poppycock you tell the children at the dentist's door. Giving your blood at the Red Cross does not hurt! l.,et's start at the beginning . . . at the moment you are sitting clutching your identification card. First, your temperature is taken. Then a nurse registers your blood pressure while another nurse skillfully takes your hemoglobin count. lThat tells how rich your blood is.j Next, a drink of water or fruit juice and a cracker. You're now ready for the Big Time. After you've stretched out on the table, a smooth-looking nurses' aide lwliere does the Red Cross get them all?l sterilizes a patch on your arm: then gives you a small shot of novocaine. Along comes the doctor. Before you know it, your blood is running through the tube that fills the bottle that holds the blood that's giong to win the war! Hurt? How can it . . . with the novocaine in there pitching and pacifyingl There's just a dull pressure for a second. Then nothing to feel or do except make a fist, relax. make a fist lyou can play you're punching Iapsl . . . un- til that precious pint is taken. After it's over there's coffee. milk or soup with crackers or doughtnuts. You rest a few minutes. You may even feel a little wobbly. But nurses hover round . . . and won't let you go until you feel right on the beam again. Hurt? Even the sissies don't cry? MUNSINGWEAR, INC. UPPLY CO. 4 ? fx. E: 1l?. 21g:,1, -'5?i::3::':f:g.

A writer raises the question, How will men of the future look? It all depends on how the women dress. The fellows who drive with one hand usually are headed for the aisle of a church. Some of them will walk down it, and some of them will be carried down it. After Hitler's death the top tune will be Oh, What a Beautiful Mourning. Girl: Are your kisses dynamite?
