From our thinl4- ing on this subject and the ideas expressed in the composition which won the American Legion prize, we discovered our theme- Tl-IE AMERICAN WAV THEME Here we are Free, Here we are happy. We come and go as we pleasef We worship God without interference We voice our opinions without fear. Curs is- TI-IE AMERICAN WAY DEDICATION TO MR. I-I. I-l.

Johnson should understand something about this going-to-school-job of ours, for he has attended several schools. 4- first there were elementary school days in East Liverpool, Ohio, and then came preparation for college with five summer sessions at the College of Wooster, Wooster, Chio, and tutoring with high school teachers. Not satisfied with a college graduation from the College of Wooster in 1909, Mr. Johnson returned the summer of 1912 for graduate study. He continued to spend his summers at universities- Wisconsin in 1916, Harvard in 1933, and four summers at Teachers College, Columbia Uni- versity in New Yorlc City, where a lVlaster's degree was obtained in 1927. Of course, all this going to school had a purpose-preparation for teaching. Before attending college Mr. Johnson taught part of a term in West Virginia, and six years in East Liverpool, Ohio. After graduation from college he spent three years and three months in the schools of Barberton, Ohio. During the last three months he was principal of the high school. ln November, 1919 he was aslced to come to Pittsburgh and was placed at South Side High School to teach mathematics. Room 113 of the old building was given to the new teacher. He also taught for a summer and several years at night at Carnegie Tech. ln 1994 when South was enlarged to a Junior-Senior High School, a new Vice-Principal was ap- pointed, the H. H. J. of an endless stream of notes. Graduates of South never forget to aslc about Mr. Johnson when they meet teachers or students still in school, but few of them ever learned that he has a fascinating hobby far re- moved from his talks in the hall, just outside the office door. Did you lcnow he is an amateur photographer? He and Mr. MacDonald have worlced together on their hobby, and at present both are interested in color photo raphs. Mr. Johnson also lilces to read. ln fact, he calls readin his second hobby, but l thini frequently a boolc is neglected for a camera or roll of film. Nfany of us who live on the hill lcnow that our Vice-Principal is sincerely interested in the worlc of his church, the John Wesley Methodist Church on Warrington Avenue. for almost twenty years he was Superintendent of the Sunday School, guiding and aiding the spiritual life of his teachers and pupils. Recently he gave up this activity, but his interest will alwa s remain. fwas told to include in my interview a question about our theme-THE AMERICAN WAY. Mr. Johnson gave me a definition of democracy which l lilced so well that l want to quote parts of it. Why? Because l thinlc it is also a definition of Mr. Johnson's WAY of disciplining South High School students. ln a democracy the people ' should be educated, free, unselfish, and cooperative. The Golden Rule should be the guiding principle of all actions. The government should function for the welfare and prog- ress of all the people rather than G for special classes .... All people should live and worlc for the good ofallf' l b l' H. H. J. l' d - worlcsefgflihe good of alllebfalis. Stuffing my notes into my already overstuffed Wooley, l started to leave the office. Here, said Mr. Johnson, you'll need this. 1940 SOUTH SOUTH SIDE VOCATIONAL SCHOOL 'The American Wayi' To a Way oi Living 194-O SOUTH X , - 4 E SOUTH HIGH SCHOOL The American Wayl' 'To a Way of Living 194-O THE AMERICAN SOUTH Thanlc God that lim an American. That time-vvorn phrase is heard. Again it echoes through our land Now that the war's horrors have be The thunder of cannon, roaring forth, Banging against opposing walls? The anguished cry of wounded men f-lit by rifle balls. Here too, the cannons thunder forth And balls ricochet against walls, But here the cannon are hickory sticlcs And the bullets, basebalis. l'lere opposing armies clash ln baseball, football, and on tracks, But there the armies clash in death With steel, gas, and lead attaclcs. There the people flee to shelters While overhead bombers roar, But here the people happily watch The mighty transports lift and soar. The enemy may start a frontal attaclc Or a deceptive submarine onslaugh l lelmeted heads may crash together, But here gridiron battles are fought Not on a shell-torn battlefield Nor a deadly mine-laden sea, WAY en ungird ti And not in the slcy, where wings of death May blast you into eternity. Let me use that phrase again That's echoing from man to man Keeping peace throughout our land, Thank God that l'm an American. -GEORGE KOCHKA 1940 Administration Czlasses .... fXcHviUes... fXthletics. ..

CONTENTS ' 3412 J 1940 Page Page Page Page 1 1 4 6 9 SOUTH TO A MAN With heavy heart, but smiling face, the essence of his race, He stood erect and unafraid, Of another grim tomorrowl Unafraid, 'cause he knelt and pray'd When confronted by life's sorrow. To him, life meant the joy of living, To love, and be loved by others, Stainless faith and boundless giving, And all mankind-brothers. Now, man had gone mad in a war-torn world, Civilization at its lowest ebb, Once smiling lips in sneers were curl'd, And the fires of Hell, rekindled and fed. Men took up arms without knowing why, And committed horrible deeds, Many died-some with a curse, some with a sigh, According to their creeds, Strewn o'er the gory field ln a grotesque, heaping, array, Where men against steel had reel'd Their broken bodies lay. Scenes so ghastly to behold, T'would make a strong man weak, Distorted bodies stiff, and cold, Destruction at its peak. Disease and pestilence reigned supreme, The stench of rotted flesh reeked to the skies, Carrion birds for joy would scream, And men would stare with sightless eyes. Vet, if one man fell in needless death, Ten more his space would fill, Fi hting ,till the very last breath LeftTwis body lamp and Sail. He sickened, and his conscience quaked, As he stood amid this bleak turmoil, His rifle against his shoulder brac'd, He tried his best to be loyal. Who was he to take another's life? To that-only God had the right- He needed help in this hour of strife, So he prayed far into the night. The fatal hour was near, Guns began to rumble and pound, The foe he could see and hear, Some screamed, and slid to the ground, He aimed against his will, He saw in the sights-a human soul, He did not firel-He could not kill, The bullet never reached its goal. He prayed to God that others might live, And when this prayer was done, He asked God his foes to forgive, A coward?-He was a man, my son. -ROBERT AIKEN 1940 I ' 1 .I 1 s' ' 1 ' .,.,,.,q: : .gr-L - -1.-1.

MISS EDVTHE DAVIDSON--Senior English teacher-Room 3'l'l-to her we all report at some time during our Senior year. We learn she works with us many hours on our commencement speeches. The subjects for those speeches she and Mr. Black secure from the National Education Association, other schools, or the events of the time. For you, Miss Davidson, vve are grateful. MR. HARRY BLACK-in room 306. Although not all oi us have classes with Mr. Black, sometime during the years we meet him in a study class or on a committee forthe Senior dance, dinner, or commencement.

It is not the American Way to play a second Fiddle, but the February Class ol l94O shovved us the 'ivvayn to act in their class play Thursday, December 'l4, 1939. The play is a romantic larce ol an estranged marriage between the principal char- acters l'larold and Joan. The entire action ol the play tal4es place in the living room ol Aunt Marion's home in Florida. The existence ol a former Fiancee who lmovvs nothing of the marriage and thvvarts l'larold's every move, the disgust with which Joan greets her mysterious marriage to Harold, her threat lor a divorce, and the arrival ol Joanis mother to meet her son-in- lavv are but a levv ol the complications that arise to create a most interesting plot. ln the end, hovvever, Harold, with the allectionate love ol his vvile, clears matters to everyones satisfaction. With such humorous and vvitty characters as Wilbur, the butler, and Minne Carson, a guest, along with the remaining cast, Hgecond Fiddle may be ranlced high in the history ol South l-ligh Class Plays.

Laugh galore! And aII for only five or ten cents! These are what the Senior A's gave to the assemblies on April 8 and 9 when they presented, What Do Confucius Say? for the Yearbook sales campaign. The play was written and directed by Irwin Rosen and Frank Harris. Rosen also acted as UM. C., and Harris, sitting in the audience, played the role of Heckler. The most potent, most honorable Confucius was Full of brilliant philosophy and wise sayings until he met his wife Mr. Confucius whose quick vvit and snappy comeback left him speechless just not in the mood. But the court musician vvas definitely in the mood with his sweet potato and his accordion on vvhichyhe rendered mlhe Woodpecker's Song and the Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6 Cluxedo Junc- tion sty e . With Mickey Fing as his chief assistant, Confucius has no dull moments. By a clap of his hands Mickey brought in the court dancer, Betty Lopata, or the singers of Confucius Say. Hector Ioy, a brainless inventor Whose inventions alvvays took a turn for the unexpected, also entertained the vvise one. Heddy I.a Ming solved the serious problem of her mind by seeing Confucius vvho suggested the Yearbook. The Yearbook also helped the super-super-salesman and Ieft Mrs. Confucius speechless, after forty years of married Iife. Unforgettable vvas the tragic, chilling, terror-striking execution scene when Ranee Lovv was killed because she had a Iove for roast pig, Cshe burnt dovvn houses to have it,J and Baron Ioothee Rickee, who had evaded his income tax, had his head cut off. The play ended with the heckler shooting himself. No, no, not because he vvas so ashamed of him- self for heckling the shovv, but because he criticized such a grand splendid work as the 'I9-40 Yearbook.

U South Opponents. . . . .90 South 1940 U6 SOUTH FOGTBALL From seventy enthusiastic gridiron warriors who reported at Langley Field during the late summer, thirty-six were selected by Coach Warren Cue to represent the Orange and Black forthe 1939 season. With but three weeks of practice the First game that confronted the South eleven was with Perry. There the Perry Commodores defeated the South Orioles, 'I9 to O. Then came the second game with the Allderdice Dragons who scored a touchdown in every period, beating South by a score of Q6 to O, in a downpour of rain. ln the third quarter of the game South reeled oil Five consecutive First downs, climaxed by a thirty- yard run by Wolak. Although out-scored, the South Orioles with Flaherty, Wolak, and Gozik carrying the ball, managed to get eleven First downs to the victor's eight. ln the third contest Schenley nosed out a stubborn South eleven 6 to O. It was regarded as the toughest and hardest fought contest ol the early campaign. A non-league game at Westinghouse followed with the champions defeating the South Orioles Q6 to O before a crowd of 5,000. South next journeyed to play a favored Langley eleven. With Flaherty and Wright playing excellent ball, the Orioles scored in every quarter but the third. The scores came on sensational runs by Flaherty and Wright. The game ended 'IS to O, making it the Orioles First win of the season. The Orange and Black were then scheduled to play the highly touted Filth Avenue team. Inspired over the victory at Langley, the South team scored early in the second quarter. This seemed a sure victory for the Orioles, but with thirty-Five seconds to play the uptowners rallied to tie the score 7 to 7, thus keeping a clean slate of not being defeated. Finally the last game, with our neighbor, South l-lills, was a victory with South making the only tally in the second quarter, defeating the Tunnelites, 6 to O. Wolak drove over his own right tackle for the score. A pep rally had preceded the game . The Orioles after starting poorly achieved two wins, a tie, and three losses, for their best record since 1934. The student body is proud of Coach Cue and the entire squad for their achievements. Outstanding players were recognized by pittsburgh papers. Michael Wolak was chosen on the Press All-Scholastic First Team and the Sun-Telegraph, second. l'lonor- able mentions were given to: Gozic, Flaherty, Kunold, Wilde, and Murphy. 1940 SOUTH Murphy EKD Koslko Wright S E N I 0 R S Who helped South have one of the most successful football season Michalski Flaherty Cohen Wilde 1940 SOUTH SOCCER .I Row l: Milton Iiusamnvich, G4-urge Kzidic, Ga-nrgv Milkovich, Robert Benjamin, Edward Perizm, just-ph S4-rt-dm-tski.

The Soccer team started oil better than the Football team by tieing,'l to W, the Latimer Junior High team in the league opener at Latimer. The Qriole hooters outplayed the much taller Latimer players and deserved more than a mere tie. But such vvas not the result when Coach Dippold led his proteges to Gladstone to engage in a pre-season clash. Due to inexperience the boys were defeated 4 to O. The Knoxville Junior l-ligh soccer team proved to he a stumbling hloclc as it toolc over South High Qrioles Q to O. Qverloolcing the tvvo scores ol the Knoxville hooters, the lone bright spot lor the Qrioles was their line defensive play. 1 The team was again defeated by prospect Junior l'ligh 3 to O at Sophia Everett Field. ln the remaining games the South Qrioles tied tvvo and lost one, malcing a Final record ol three ties and three losses. .1940 G9 SOUTH Mahaven Plewinski Wilde Michalski BASKETBALL SEASON OF 1940 With football battles fought the South High boys began training for the war ol baslcets, fouls, and upsets. A squad of Fifty-Five candidates was diminished to twenty-two. Four non-league games raised the curtain lor the South Oriole and all were challced up on the Oriole side. The City League First hall opened with Connelley, and South registered its Fifth straight win. The new City Champions, Filth Avenue handed the Orioles their initial defeat. The remaining First hall found South winning four games and losing one. The second hall, however, was not so bright as South lost the next three encounters before Finally winning a 30 to Q9 game from Schenley. The four remaining games on the South schedule found them losing two and winning two to end a disappointing season. The outstanding games of the season were the out of town Aliquippa games, the second Peabody game, and the second Schenley game. Those who bid farewell to South are as follows: Michael Kostlco, Ralph Wilde, Delwin Wright, Sidney Cohen, James Flaherty, Paul Mackey, Charles Callahan, l-larry Mahaven, Norman Sherman, Nlilce Michalski, and l-lenry Plewinski.

The girls toolc part in many sports which taught them good sports- manship andthe fundamentals of fair play. BASKETBALL The most hotly contested battle toolc place on the baslcetball floor between the 'lQB7's and 'lOA3's, who started the tournamentand ended it. There were twenty- four teams in the tournament with games played every Monday and Thursday evening. Fifty-two games were played throughout the tournament. The 'IQB7 team, whose captain was Leatrice Talcauslcas, played eight games, winning 7 and losing 'l. The 'lOA3's, spurred on by their captain, Mary Williams, won 'IO and lost 'l. 'IQA1 'S won 3, lost Q. Qne of the rules of the tournament was that a team losing twice was elimi- nated. Winners lcept on playing until they had met and defeated all other teams. The 'lQB7's and the 'lOfx3's won every game until they met. 'l2B7's won from 'lOA3's by a score of '18-'l 4. Then 'lOA3's won from 'lQB7's by a score of 'l6-'l3. The cham- pionship game was played March '14, and the 'lOA3's came off the floor victorious with a score of Q2-12. It was an exciting game with Leatrice Talcauslcas starring for the losers. She made all her team's points and played a fine defensive game. l-lelen Rusenlto, Anna Bacinslcas, Dolores Drevitch, and Mary Arbasalc were the other players who exhibited excellent worlc, but they were not good enough to beat the 'lOA3's. The 'IOA3 team played well, and it would be hard to select any outstanding player. Mary Williams and Rose Abraham, whose passing and team worlc were faultless, and Mary Balinslci, whose superb shooting roclceted her personal score up to 'l4 points, were the stellar performers. The guarding of Dorothy Dienert and Olga Fleclc was excellent. Jennie lzza, also a member of this group was out ill, but Dorothy Dienert was an able substitute. The 'lOA3's are now the champion basketball team of the school and are hoping to lceep the title next year. Runners up in the tournament were: Pauline Poslcus' team, 'IQB6 Nellie Kaslcons' team, 'l'lB4 Norma l-lereford's team, 'l'lB8 Mamie l-lenderson's team, 'lOB5 The girls on the championship 'lOA3 team are now the 'l'lB9's, and the girls of the 'lQB7 team are now the 'lQA5's.
