God has been truly generous in bestowing His graces on our America. He has spared us the horrors and destruction of the war, and has made us once again victorious in the battle for freedom. He has culti- vated our land with rich harvests, inspired our scientists to their new experiments, and has opened our way to a new world of trade and commerce. Let's keep America this way! Upon you, the youth ot America, lies the burden of retaining America at the top. You are the light bearers of America. Your success determines the fate of this great nation and perhaps the world. The task is not an easy one, trials and tribulation will be numerous and the standards are very high. But, what are these, it in the end Ameri- ca is ours-our America the Beautiful. 5 Dedication Year after year for the past twenty-tive years this compara- tively old organization through the zeal and initiative of its mem- bers has instilled the ideals and principles of democracy deep into the hearts of the students. Originated by Miss Davidson and carried on tirelessly by Mrs. Worley for the latter twenty-three years, the members of this association have by their undaunted perseverance done much for the improvement of the school and have raised the scholastic standards to a higher level. Some of the worthwhile accomplishments have tailed to re- ceive tull appreciation, but heedless of this tact its various activi- ties continue to function. We are proud to have had the distiction ot celebrating the silver anniversary ot this organization during our senior year and are still happier to see it attaining such wide acclaim while reaching this milestone. As a tribute to their many Worthy ettorts and all of their fine achievements, we, the graduating classes of February and Iune 1946 do reverently dedicate this book to the Student Cooperative Association. 6 Be happy, noble heart, be blest for all the good thou hast done and wilt do hereafter, and let our gratitude rest in the shade with your kindness. Miss Edythe Davidson With these words we bid farewell to Miss Edythe Davidson, who retires from the teaching profession at the end of this se- rnester. Miss Davidson was born in Lawrence County near New Cas- tle, Pennsylvania. She is a graduate of Westminster College and has done graduate work in the University of Pittsburgh as well as at Columbia and the University of Colorado. Beginning her high school teaching in Pittsburgh as a mem- ber ot the faculty of Allegheny High School, Miss Davidson was transferred to South High in the fall ot 1916. She has continued to teach in the English department of this school since that time with the exception of one year which she spent in welfare work over- seas during World War I. Throughout her years of teaching, Miss Davidson has upheld the highest principles of her profession. She has become for us the personification of truth, honor, dignity, and courtesy. Though we cannot adequately express all we feel, we, the faculty and students of South High School, sincerely wish that she may know every happiness in her new life and that she may sometime think ot those Who will miss her here in years to come. 7 ORIOLE ILLUSTRATORS Each year, as in the past, a group of talented artists contribute to the suc- cess of the annual publication of the Oriole Yearbook. This year, under the co-sponsorship of Mr. I. Lee Peters and Miss Viola Brosky, the integrity of this group has truly brought out some fine pieces of art. Following the selection of the theme of the Yearbook, these young artists set about to perform original and attractive cuts that adorn the pages of this book. Particular attention is due to the beautifully designed plates, the long tedi- ous work of George Garbus, a member of the Illustrators for eight consecutive semesters. Through the efforts of Frank Szafranski and Rosemarie Chojnicki, gay and Witty cartoons and an interesting cover add to making the book in- teresting as well as humorous. Therefore, to them, the Illustrators, as well as to Mr. Peters and Miss Brosky for their expert guidance and tireless efforts in accomplishing an under- taking well done, We the graduating classes of Ianuary and Iune, l946 say Thank you and heartiest congratulations. 8 EADMHNHSTRZATHGDN 9 Dear Seniors: An American philosopher has written that The first duty of education is to teach people to do better the desirable things that they are going to do any- way. Another duty is to reveal higher types of activities and to make them both desired and to an extent possible. You who are terminating va- rying preparations for life in the field of one of America's most cherished institutions, free pub' lic education, must reflect upon the effects of the fulfillment or partial fulfillment of these duties have had on YOU for the effects are not only fundamental but, by their very nature, are far reaching. ln other words, each of you rep- resenting a powerful element in the atomic force of American society has been undergoing a pro- cess of modiifcation by which you are either to move that society forward, retard or destroy it. Re- member always that you may occupy no static position. For example, you have learned that natures forces come in pairs, equal and opposite in their effects, that a balance of forces brings about an orderly condition and that these effects can be measured. Likewise, in degree at least, you must have concluded that the social forces, though harder to evaluate, control and measure, are none the less powerful. Thus we have the eternal hope that these latter forces, recognized as our knowledge increases and held in control as our wills decree, offer to all men everywhere that security without which we can lose the accomplishments of the last 5000 years. Therefore, do the desirable things better than others before you, seek constantly for higher types of activities and you may rest assured that man's Hunceasing purpose will run so long as time endures. lt has been good to know you, to work with you and for you, and to hold with you that firm belief that not only America but the whole World can be more beautiful to the degree that We as individuals strive to make it so. MR. STERLING Very sincerely yours, Chester L. Sterling Principal 10 TO THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1946: I wish to extend congratulations to each of you. You have completed a goal-a goal towards which many have started but, because of various causes, have never completed. You are graduating from High School. Hundreds and thousands of returned veterans, real- izing the needs and necessity of a high school education and diploma, are now striving to gain the end that you have obtained. These ex-service men being mature of mind and experience now realize that knowledge is ne- cessary and desirable in a country that has advanced and moved forward on knowledge. You, through your efforts and determination, have obtained something priceless to many a returned service- man. Hundreds start high school but very few graduate -you now become a member of a selected group-the high school graduate. Do not stop learning--move forward-gain more knowledge-this country needs you and you need Amer- ica-the Beautiful. I again congratulate you. E. G. Burns Mr. BURNS The important day for which you as Seniors have MR. MOORE Guidance Counselor been waiting has come. That of course is the day of your graduation from South High School. We are all glad that yours is once again a peace time graduating class. When we see pictures of the war-torn countries across the seas our hearts are filled with conflicting emotions,-we are both hopeful and despairing, both optimistic and pessi- mistic. Like a pendulum our hearts swing from one to the other,-hopeful that peace will be lasting, fearful that the seeds of future wars are being sowng optimistic be- cause there are signs that at last an organization of na- tions has been formed which we hope will be capable of maintaining the peace of the world, pessimistic because there are still so many evidences of human selfishness. High school seniors in these United States, however, need not be pessimistic for long. They need only look at our beautiful country unravaged by war after four long years of that war and then determine to do their part in rebuild- ing our country and the entire world to make both better and finer places in which to live. Iohn l-I. Moore Guidance Counselor ll Mr. MacDonald To the Graduates: As you step from the portals of South High to schools of higher learning or into your vocation, you enter a world that rapidly is being disillusioned as to the fruits of victo- rious Warfare. The allied nations, emerging triumphantly from the Second World War, with high hopes for the es- tablishment of a just and lasting peace, have been driven almost to despair by the suspicion and dissention which has arisen among them. Governments are preplexed, in- dustry is in turmoil, clash and tension exist on every hand. In this time of confusion and bewilderment may you charter a steady course by laying hold of those eternal verities which cannot be shaken--meekness and humil- ity, expressed by strength brought under disciplineg sym- pathetic understanding, manifested in tolerance, kindness and brotherly lovep and patience, born of a steadfast faith that righteousness eventually Will prevail. Faithfully yours, Charles W. MacDonald Director of Activities To the Graduating Class: Your high school program has been carried out dur- ing an uncertain and trying period. The Worries and sor- rows born of War have been felt in many homes. Employ- ment opportunities at high Wages have been plentiful and tempting. Distractions and conflicting attractions have beset your high school life. In spite of these oppos- ing forces you have completed what you started. In this respect you stand out from those Whose names once ap- peared on your class rolls but who have since dropped by the Wayside. You attained your goal and, in the life you are about to enter, this will be significant. ln parting, together with the success We all Wish you, may I urge that you maintain throughout your life's Work the persistence of purpose that has played an important part in bringing you the distiction of now being a member of this graduating class.

I've been watching this class of Ianuary '46 since the days when they copied their nightie work, banged their lockers on their pudgie Widdle fingers, and quacked their bubble-gum. I'm going to use some of my extraordinary powers to look ten years into the future and see what's going to happen to all these brilliant i?l guys and gals now that they've left the crowden corridors of South. What do you think is going to become oi Walt Keiko? Remember how in- terested he used to be in Classic Comic Books? Well, ten years from now he'll have attained at least part of his great ambition.

February Class Picture 25 The February graduating class of '46 produced a three act comedy called Come Rain or Shine. The cast sold out the house on the eventful day of December ll, and under the direction of Miss Margaret Baker, the play proved a great success. Iac Grayson, a delightfully high-spirited college girl, is spending her sum- mer with her family on the lakeshore. When she learns that a summer theatre is being established nearby, she is fired with a theatrical ambition which is enjoyed by everyone. Iulia March, the eccentric owner of the city paper which Iac's father edits, has founded the theatre to further the ambition of her beautiful, pampered granddaughter, Rosemary. Rosemary arrives to spend the summer and Iac meets the handsome, young theatre director. Immediately Rosemary and Iac are at odds-over the important roles and over Dan Lyons, the director. Their rivalry is complicated by the arrival of Iac's college suitor, the frenzy of Iac's lazy brother, Glenn, the beauty of Rosemary, and the entertaining iras- cibility of Iac's father.

Thank You and Goodbye. CLICK. 42 CLASS HISTORY JUNE '46 The summer of 1942 had made its exit and autumn was just making its debut, when a large group of young excited girls and boys appeared for the first time in the halls of South High School. Freshmen at last! To this group it was a very important occasion, for it meant that they had achieved another step on the road to education and in four years they would be at the peak of their goal. What did not enter the minds of these Freshmen was the fact that in this short period of four years they would shed their childish ways of thinking and living and emerge as men and women. The first year was consumed with the acquaintance of the rules and standards set up by their predecessors. Along with this a good deal of study- ing and hard work was completed and then the title of Freshmen was bestowed upon them. As a result of the same repetition of hard work, in the fall of the third year at South they were again rewarded by receiving the title of Iuniors. Up to this time our Iuniors had not known the real meaning of war-the man made disease which had plagued most of the world, and against which our very own country was now entering its fourth year. Some of their class- mates answered the challenge to fight against this dreaded sickness by join- ing the services and others went into war work of various kinds. All of them realized how necessary it was to work to the best of their ability. The buying of bonds and stamps was just one way that they tried to assist in the fight. The war also taught the Iuniors the importance of a good education. They now realized that education was a very essential part of their equipment if they were to become good citizens. The last year at South High arrived with unbelievable swiftness. The new Seniors found this year the busiest and the happiest of all the four. lt was during this time that the curse of war was crushed and the entire world again began to live in peace and harmony. Commencement night arrived and on the stage sat the group of seniors who just four years ago were carefree children and now men and women who would go out as citizens of their own beloved America the Beautiful. 43 FAREWELL, YOUNG FELLERS Pappy, what makes you walk so awful slow? Well, child-I reckon it's because l'm tired-mighty tired. Iust let me mop my feverish brow and sit down awhile before I start down that old Glory Road. Yes, sir, it's nigh time to leave, but before I go, I'd kinda like to pass along a few o' the things which have made my stay here so much fun. I sure had good times here, son. Yes, sir, sure am sorry to leave. Well, sir, all we old-timers want to leave you young fellers all the class- rooms here at South and all the teachers that go with them. Speakin' o' teach- ers, young kid, you'll never find a better crowd. No, siree. We'll sure miss the old Physics class, with all the experiments that never worked, or even if they did-we didn't understand them anyway. We leave you Trig and Solid with all the little sines and cosines, bless 'emi 'To be or not to be'-Yes, sir, that is the question. Before you're through, young teller, you'll know Hamlet like a brother. Have fun getting that soliloquy into your headl We'll leave you the Transcription class, too. Maybe you can get your letters in on time. The language classes-we know you'll enjoy those. Then there's the Gym Classes and my, weren't they fun, though. They were some volly ball and basket ball games. Gosh, we didn't mind being bashed a little. After all, what are a few busted ribs between friends? We leave you the halls of old South High and may you never have your eyes poked out by a head-on collision rounding some of the corners. We won't say the halls are jammed-we don't have to. Anybody could see that for himself--that is, if he had any good eyes left after a hazardous journey from class to class. Then there's the Assembly Programs and all the times we had in the old auditorium. We were either in or out of programs, some educational-some we enjoyed. They're all yours, small fry, watch you don't get your foot caught in the auditorium seats! We leave you the Oriole News--take good care of it, son, and be sure to make the deadline, 'cause we never did. But we tried, honest, we did. 44 FAREWELL, YOUNG FELLERS Here's all the clubs and all the fun that went with 'em. World Travel, Senior Leaders, Chess, Business Girls. They were right swell We leave you all the Wheels and all the Rims and Spokes. Never forget, young friend-Wheels make the world go 'round, and 'Where there's a wheel -there's a Way.' We want to give you those nights to remember-the Proms and the Prom bid that never comes or else isn't from the right person or the Prom bid that makes old South a little bit of heaven. We'll never forget 'em. Now son, we're going to leave you the Spanish Fiesta, that gay, mad night when even the walls lean over with a Spanish accent. Oh, wonderful night! I-lere's something else for you, pal, all the worry and speculatin' when the Class Play cast is being chosen-the can't-be-copied joy of the day when you can say-'l'm inl'-or that bitter day when you say from the depths of your despair- 'I'm not-. Sob' Then 'opening nightl' It you have any nails lett you'll start chewing- meanwhile walking around in a trace mumbling your lines to yourself. Oh the thrill of being out on that stage when you'll swear you were born in an actor's trunk with greasepaint in your blood. What a triumph!!!-? Ah yes, the play's the thing! Well, sir, there's only one more thing I want to give you, young teller- and that's something l'd kind o' like to hang onto myself. But it can't be done. So here it is, boy-Commencement night---when we all kind of wish we were just kids again, starting South. There you have it, son. Pack all these things in one bundle and you'll have South High School . . . She's all yours. You better treat her fine-or you'll have to answer to us. Well, son, my time is up. Got to be getting along now. You be good, young Class o' February '47, have fun and don't forget us. So long, Pappyf' So long, son. Then the old man slowly turned and began his long, long journey down the old Glory Road. 45 JUNE CLASS PLAY Any old ghosts lying around your house? Say, what would you charge to haunt a house? Got an extra bed sheet you don't need? These and other queries were the order of the day, for the Iune Class Play title solemnly stated the need for a spook in no uncertain terms. Ghost Wanted. ea thrilling mystery-a chiller-diller, and the first of its kind to be presented at South High for many years was chosen to scare the wits out of the unsuspecting audience. Nails were bitten to the quick, handkercfiefs were twisted mercilessly, members of the audience even obliged with a few well-timed screams. Oh, it frightened 'eh all right. The members of the cast were sworn to secrecy, not to divulge who-dun- it. Not even their families or best friends knew who it was. And lol the poor audience! With teeth chattering and shifting eyes, they left that auditorium and ran all the Way home without looking back. The entire production was under the able direction of Miss Margaret S. Baker, whose untiring efforts made possible the success it was. The members of the cast were: Cln order of appearance-7 Hugo Bromley r .. Ieffrey Hall Troddy . ,. Hatcher .. . .

Junior Oriole Staff Yeanrbook Sales Sta ff 49 Student Council - 'Ist Semester The President of the Student Council was Nick Cosmides, ably supported by lack Watkins, Vice Presidentg Richard Probola, Secretary: and Andrew Sakmar, Treasurer. The most outstanding of all the Student Council activities this semester was South High's participation at the State Convention of Student Councils which convened at Greensburg. South has held prominent posi- tions in the previous conventions, and at this time was named chairman school of the Constitutional Committee. Our delegates likewise took part in the panel discussions. Several worthy undertakings were started but did not reach completion because of the conclusion of the sernester.- Plans were 'for- mulated for obtaining a new Alma Mater song, but unfortunately there was no defi- nite decision on either the lyrics or the words. The Student Council extends to you its sincere appreciation and gratitude for your unselfish contribution to the purchase of an Honor Roll. The Honor Roll is perhaps one of the finest accomplishments ever achieved at South. The cooperation of the student body with the student government organiza- tion not only is beneficial to the school, but will serve as a valuable experience to you as men and women in future years. Student Council - 2nd Semester Elected to the presidency of the Student Council was Frank Papariella. l-le was as- sisted by Iohn Papuga, Vice-President: Nick Kostek, Secretaryg and Andrew Sakmar, Treasurer. An important milestone was reached during April when the council cel- ebrated its twenty-fifth year of organization. The Latrobe Conference of Western Penn- sylvania Student Councils held the most prominent position on the list of activities undertaken by our student government. South was chosen as the chairman school of the Constitution Committee. The sole pur- pose of this committee is to formulate plans for a constitution and to present them at the Hershey Convention next fall. lnnumerable interesting and helpful ideas were brought back from Latrobe. Some of these were giv- en thoughtful consideration, and there were a few which had been tried previously. The establishment of the Birthday Fund was the outstanding achievement of the stu- dent council. The money from this fund is to be used to pay for the new Public Ad- dress System to be purchased sometime in the future. To procure additional funds an entertainment program was staged by the Swing Band. This program was in the form of a variety show and aided immensely in swelling the total amount of money collect- ed. The student council fully realizes and appeciates the fact that had it not been for the fine cooperation of the student body many of its accomplishments would not have been possible. Y 52 Library The library of South High School is now serving four departments of students: the Senior group, the Iunior group, the Vocational boys, and the Vet- erans. lts nine hundred books serve for reference Work as well as for recrea- tional reading, The most recent editions of the encyclopedias can be found in this library. The student library committee assists in the clerical Work of the library. Pupils are chosen for their special interest in the library and their aptitude for library Work. They are trained for special types of Work, and in recognition of their service are awarded, upon graduation, certificates of merit. The above committee under the able sponsorship of Miss Bella Goldstein has made the library a center of special interest at South. The officers of this committee are: Harriet Williams, President, Betty Ellis, Vice President: Ger- trude Gallick, Secrteary-Treasurer, and Regina Krzerninski, Oriole Reporter. 53 DANCES Prom Dance The evening of Iaunary 31, 1946 was highlighted by the Iunior Prom held semi-formally at the ballroom of the Webster Hall Hotel. Dancing to the music of Homer Oschenhirt, everyone had a Wonderful time from 9:00 to 12:00. The prom committee was headed by the able Chairman George Burey. The guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. Sterling, Mr. and Mrs. Wiegman, and Mrs. W'orley. The chaperones were Mr. Castaldo, Miss Frost, Miss Davidson, and Mr. Cassidy. ' A number of speakers addressed some very enlightening words to those assembled. The list of speakers headed by our principal, Mr. Chester L. Ster- ling, included Mary Musulin, lack Watkins, and Robert Kress. During the floor show we were entertained by the singing of Andrew Sak- mar and the piano playing of the nimble-fingered Mary Petrunio and Herny Wengzen. An old-fashioned community singing was also carried on. Comments on the prom revealed that this was South's best. Desires to im- itate this prom in the future were also voiced. South Vocational Snowball II The boys of South Vocational High School again have had the pleasure of presenting the Annual Snowball Dance. The unique affair took place this time on Ianuary 18, 1946 under the sponsorship of Mr. Wiegman and Mr. Cas- sidy. The dance was the first of its type in which all the lighting effects were provided by spotlights. Outstanding of all the features at the dance was the spotlight with revolving colors. Winter scenes were portrayed with a snowman serving as the center of attraction. As an added attraction a refreshment stand was erected for the occasion. Let lt Snow was chosen as the appropriate theme song. Candidates competing for the honor of being King and Queen danced to its melody while the judges Watched for the couple most deserving of the royal titles. lt was a tedious task selecting the outstanding couple since there were quite a few who were eligible. However, the judges finally selected handsome Dan Sem- ber as King and attractive Mary Muza as Queen. The crowning ceremonies were simple, with Mr. Castaldo conferring the title of King on Dan, while Mar- celline Tulisiak crowned Mary the Queen. The 1946 Snowball was the second of its kind and it is hoped that South Vocational High School will be able to bring you the Third Annual Snowball next Ianuary. 54 Pxofvo Distributive Occupations Class Distributive Occupations or a Coopera- tive Part-Time Sales Training course was inaugurated at South High in September 1945. Pupils are trained by the high school, and the highly trained expert supervisors in the Training Departments of the stores. Pupils receive the regular high school diploma and in addition a special certificate at the time ot graduation. High school graduates who take Coopera- tive Part-Time Sales Training, have an ex- cellent opportunity for advancement quite early after graduation, due to the specialized and intensive training they received during their senior year. Graduates who take the Cooperative Part- Tirne Sales Training course provide highly trained employees for the businessmen who cooperate in this Distibutive Occupations program. Those Properly Prepared Promote Pitts- burgh's Progress to a much greater extent.

GG 1 1 Round-up Of Sports For Period Ending February 1946 Well, once again we close the cover on another semester of activities. Boy! What a workout! Why with basketball, volleyball, swimming, dodge bat ball, and tennis, we girls really get worn out. lt Sinatra could only see these muscles! The objective of these Intra-Mural Sports is-a team tor every girl and a girl on every team. This is where you see the healthiest and most physically tit girls you'd ever see anywhere. Why, these games call for easy springing and sharp wits. Each classroom competes with the various classes, allowing no team to remain in schedule which has had three losses. Believe you me, the competi- tion is more than tough. After the class rooms have competed with one anoth- er, teams are formed from the results of the preceding games, and watch out- for now everyone is on the outs for the championship. This semester the llA's -La Verne Kantz-Captain have proven themselves to be the Champs in Volleyball and basketball. Congratulations, on your hard-earned and well- deserved position. Here's hoping the future holds still more honors to come. It has also been the custom for Miss Wehmier to conduct Senior A's in a volleyball game-girls against boys every semester. This gives loads of fun and everyone enjoys themselves immensely. It has also been the tradition for the boys to win. Could be that they are stronger. As your silent reporter l'm not prepared to answer however, we, the girls of the February Class of '46 re- luse to tell what the final score was, especially since it took us half a semester to forget it. So, until next semester, we won't say good-bye to sports, but-keep it up. Let's show the school what we girls can accomplish in the field ot activities. 67 Basketball 'I946 The City League Basketball Schedule was abbreviated this year be- cause of wage disputes between the coaches and the Board ot Education. The season was so upset because of this turmoil that it was only possible for us to play the second halt of our regular schedule. South's Orioles played in seven City League games and were victorious in tive of them. -Second Half- South 44-Schenley 32 South High's Basketball Season was ushered in successfully by defeating Schenley on their home floor to the tune of 44 to 32, The Orioles showed their ability and aggressiveness by leading the red and black team throughout the game. South 32-Westinghouse 52 South traveled to Westinghouse for the second game where they were handed the worst setback of the season. The Bulldogs proved to be tar too superior a toe for the Orioles. The South quintet fought valiantly but never- the-less were beaten by a score ot 52 to 32. 68 South 42-Washington Vocational 17 Our first home game was played at the South Side Recreation Center where we played host to Washington Vocational. The Orange and Black sharpshooters sank baskets for a total of 42 points, while the most that the Vo- cationals could muster was l7 points. South 48-Connelley 29 The Orioles with two victories already chalked up visited Connelley where they made number three. The Oriole Basketeers trounced the Connel- ley five by a score of 48 to 29. The Cuemen made enough shots in the first three quarters to enable the whole squad to participate in this game. South 33-Allderdice 28 The season's string of victories was run up to four as South came from behind and emerged victorious over a fast towering Allderdice team. Trailing at the first half by a score of 23 to 13, the Orange and Black floormen staged a comeback in the last half to edge out a 33 to 28 win. South 27-Fifth Avenue 25 The highly spirited Orioles achieved their fifth and last triumph of the year by topping Fifth Avenue at the South Side Recreation Center. The game was closely contested from the initial jump to the concluding Whistle. The last half was a bitter struggle but South managed to retain a slight margin and thus overcome Fifth Avenue 27 to 25. South 26-Peabody 35 The brief basketball season was brought to a heartbreaking conclusion when South was defeated by Peabody 35 to 26. A victory over Peabody would have given the Orioles a chance to appear in the playoff with Westing- house to determine the Section I winner. The Orioles fought desperately but could not match the swift, lofty Peabody quintet. 69 Swimming Team 1946 The South High Swimming Team, coached by Mr. Crump, engaged in five meets. The Orioles participated in four contests against city high schools and also were represented in city finals. From the viewpoint of victories, the season was unsuccessful with South unable to come through with a triumph. However, several players were in lower grades and the experience gained this season will be invaluable to them next year. The final standings in the City League found South holding down the last place. In the2City Semi-Finals we also occupied the last position. Norbert Reich and Edward Voytilla were the only Orioles eligible to compete in the finals. The only 220 yardfifree-style swimmer was Theodore Iavorsky. He also was the only member of the team to gain the distinction of taking part in all of the meets. 70 Baseball 1946 South High School joined the ranks of numerous other city high schools by placing baseball on the list of competitive sports participated in by its teams. With the absence of baseball from the athletic schedule for one season it was a man-sized job tor Coach Crump to produce a team that would live up to scholastic standards. One consolation, however, was the appearance of several boys who had played on the l944 team and were Willing and anxious to play again this year. In all there were about forty candidates trying out for the team. lt became necessary during the practice stages of the season to drop several players from the squad. This was either because of their inability to make the grade or because they could not follow the rules and standards laid down by their coach. ln the course of the season South's Orioles competed against the Section I teams of the City High School League. South's home games were played at the Quarry Field. Due to deadlines and the early publication of the Yearbook We regret very much that it was impossible to publish the scores of the games. A space has been lelt for you to Write the respective scores if you so desire. 71 Cafeteria Staff 72 1 Gfffffash Slime 'N '51 5'Yci'1Zui'.

WE SAY FAREWELL You hear a melancholy laughter in the halls today, A gay laugh, but not the same old way, Yes, our four years are over now: We've had fun and We know how, We're leaving South but deep Within The Spirit of it will just begin. We've dreamed of graduating all these years But now that We're going, our eyes hold tears. Basketball, football, dancing, baseball, too, We never had to Wish or long for things to do. We'll miss it how we'll miss it, even though There are other far distant, interesting places to go Even if We can never come back again We may travel far on evey worldly lane But we'll never forget those guiding hands Of future doctors, lawyers, and travelers to foreign lands Our teachers have been kind to us No matter how very much We'd fuss Yes we go forth now to guide others Other peoples sisters and brothers It's a serious plan we enter We learn We're not the world center So keep your head and have your fun In school you have a shining sun Take time you'll soon be at our side In your place in a world quite wide We envy you just starting to school And learning the dear old Golden Rule You wonder why We're sad and grieve You see, dear friends, we have to leave. 75 N0 086 , as nuawe O UT UWT! 0 VT WNCHPA as H PASS FRIEND!
