A BACKWARD GLANCE- A LOOK AT EDDIE His stamina and determination to pursue his scholastic ambitions as well as sports and recre- ation. English, Math, French, and History keep him busy a good deal of the time. His education did not stop when he became hospitalized. EDWARD CHUPEK Let's glance back for a moment and take a look at Eddie Chupek. lt's been a long time now that he's been hospitalized. Although he hasn't been with us for a long while we shouldn't, by all means, forget him. An injury in the Windber football game t'48l put Eddie on the canvas, but he wouldn't let any referee count him out. Coming from behind, he won an up- hill battle. Although flat on his back after the injury, Eddie spoke optimistically of the future. It took a lot of nerve to hold up under such a strain as he did. Lying flat on your back in a hospital bed isn't the most pleasant thing in the world while others about you are enjoying the pleasures of life. The Iohnstown district showed the real mean- ing of community spirit when they cooperated wholeheartedly in helping to put the Chupek Fund across. One important phase of this fund was Chu- pek Night, held in the Point Stadium. Football teams from Cambria and Somerset Counties donated their services by playing in abbreviated games. Last summer, Ed got a break which he justly deserved. The United Mine Workers of America, through their welfare fund, sent him to New York for further surgical treatment. This proved a great help, for he is now well on the road to recovery. He can now move his left arm, both wrists, and has regained feeling in his shoulders. Eddie is still following sports, if only as a spec- tator. His attendance at the Notre Dame-North Carolina game was the high point in his stay in New York thus far, and he has watched many others on television. As a token of sincere appreciation Ed's Alma Mater was glad to present him with all its regular athletic awards both in football and basketball. Each member of the Class of l950 carries away a fresh and pleasant memory of Ed and still feels that he is One of Us.

EL 55 UF NINETEEN UNDHEIJ FIFTY Hll UH HULL FUR HIGH SIIHIJL STIE IIHIEVEMENT Give thy thoughts no tongue, Nor any unproportion'd thought his act. Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar. The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried, giralgple them to kthy sciul wit: hoops of steel: ut o not dull t y pa m wit entertainment Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade. Beware Of entrance to a quarrelg but being in, Bear't that the oposed may beware of thee. , Give every man's censure, but reserve thy judgment Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, But not express'd in fancyp rich, not gaudyg For the apparel oft pro:laims the man, And they in France of the best rank and station Are most select and generous in that. Neither a borrower nor a lender beg For loan oft loses both itself and friend, Y N 1 And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. JR, This above all: To thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. WALTER YURKOW -From Hamlet Z8
