YOUR EDITORS PRESENT THE BooK or THE YEAR Completing four wonderful years at South Union is like putting a puzzle together. The pieces that we need come from a class, an activity, or the administration. Our Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes each represent a needed piece. The faculty members could not be omitted. Of course, the administra- tion is of real importance. And certainly, we must never forget the clubs, sports and other activities that are so much a part of our school life. With the co-operation of all, the subjects become easier to understand, activities are made more successful, and when the last day of school arrives, another puzzle has been com- pleted. In this edition of the Eagle, we hope to show you what constitutes our school system. Each section of the system represents a piece of our puzzle. Of course, we can show only the visible part by the pictures and some of the thoughts of the students by the work that they have contributed. It takes four years to complete a student's high school puzzle, but this is the one year school puzzle. The Senior class has added the yearbook as one of their pieces. Now we shall turn the pages to see the other contributions in completing the puzzle. The entire staff ex- presses the hope that their work will enlighten your knowledge of the South Union High School puzzle. WHICH PORTRAYS YOUR SCHOOL LIFE FAMILIAR PEOPLE We have them in South Union. They roam the halls, fill the class- rooms, sometimes a little late, but they're there. They have all co- operated during the 1952-53 school term to make it one of success and happiness. The entire organization, including the administration, fac- ulty, and student body is one of which to be proud. It will prove in later years that teamwork leads to success. ACTIVE PEOPLE In any school year. there are activities to be had. South Union has a number of clubs and other organized groups for the benefit of its students. Participation in these activities adds to the social life of many a boy and girl and provides the entertainment needed in every- one's life. Under the guidance of faculty members. a better under- standing is created among the students. BUSY PEOPLE The busy people of South Union are to be commended for their work during the past season. They have brought school spirit, victories, and praise to our alma mater. Though the work was tough at times. they always looked for the 'fsilver lining and came out with a smile. Always true. always loyal will be the stu- dents of South Union. ' 1' 3 Mum W I 1 4 a 1 - ' ,lff, 1 j 4? Fm f Q Q X 0 5' GUY M. CLARK Supervising Principal SCHOOL BOARD First Row: W.

Hoak, George E. Fike, Secretary. ADMINISTRATION Mr. Guy M. Clark, Supervising Principal of South Union Township Schools is the district's chief administrator. During the past forty years Mr. Clark has devoted much time and effort to the improvement of the educational system in the township's public schools. All his abilities and energies are being given to the advance- ment of the schools, and to those community activities which aid in building character in our junior citizens. Mr. Clark, working in coordination with the School Board, directs the educational activities of the public schools in South Union. As chief executive he is, also, interested in new and more efficient methods of education that enlarge the role of our schools in training the students in the principles of the American way of life. An- other extremely important task is that of cementing public relations of which he is a supreme master. Mr. C. W. Frankhouser, our high school prin- cipal, has served in a very capable manner. All students may profit by his example of good leadership and fairness. He is especially ap- preciated for his interest in school activities and his guiding of the students throughout their educational program. Mr. Frankhouser offers many helpful suggestions to newcomers in choosing courses, to graduates going on to col- lege, to those seeking employment, or to the student with his individual problems. Each of our executive heads is served by a secretaryg Misses Edna Mae Curstead and Mary Lee Gray. Miss Curstead very capably handles all the duties as secretary to Mr. Clark. C. W. FRANKHOUSER High School Principal Miss Gray manages the stenographic work in Mr. Frankhouser's office. Regardless of how busy they are, both find time to help students with their individual problems. The South Union Board of Education de- termines the policies which govern the school's activities and solves the problems which may arise. Elected by the public to serve terms of either four to six years duration, the seven directors are responsible for such duties as pur- chasing supplies, electing teachers, handling the finances, and maintaining school buildings. How pleased we were when We returned in the fall to find that our high school was in the process of having its 'face lifted . In fact, we could hardly recognize the place with its new green garb, and light buff ceilings. The board meets regularly the second Tues- day of each month. At these meetings it studies the problems and developments of the South Union Schools. Special meetings are called many times when the affairs of the group require it. All such meetings are open to the public and are very often attended by interested groups of parents. Theirs is a big job, and should be appreciated by the student body as well as the adults of our district. EDNA MAE CURSTEAD Supervisors Secretary MARY LEE GRAY High School Secretary FACULTY . . .

GREAT THE EFFORT How times flies! Is it possible that four years have come and gone and that suddently the seniors are faced with the reality of graduation! Upon entering South Union in the fall of 1949 the four years looming ahead seemed of vast length. However, days filled with busy sched- ules, social events, athletic contests, club activi- ties, interesting friendships, and finally com- mencement reduced this period to a point where it was felt that it had passed all too quickly. It was trying at times, in fact, there were times when some of us felt like calling it a day. There were those who did quit and then there was the majority that continued to plug along. It is this group that licked one of the first major obstacles on the road of life-gain- ing their high school diploma. And now . . . four years of high school days are finished. Some give a sigh of relief. To others it leaves memories, most of them pleas- ant. But looking back just four years ago when they timidly entered the portals of South Union High School, memories of the class of 1953 find their record stacked with individual accomplish- ments and achievements that stretch almost uninterruptedly from that first day in high school in the fall of 1949 to Commencement. Our hard working senior jingle writers. As freshies, after a few weeks of roaming, we got started off on our right foot by electing our class officers, under the supervision of Mr. Hamilton, our sonpsor. We remember, perhaps vaguely, our first social affairs, and we wit- nessed the coronation of the Blue Devil. Everyone felt great the following August to be enrolled as a super sophomore. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Loncaric, who worked wtih our officers, we had a grand year. That year we enjoyed the annual Christmas dance, a won- derful play, and also ordered our school rings which arrived when we were jolly juniors. As juniors, under the guidance of Mr. J. D. Longanecker, our class, with its talent ability, pep, and energy was a power in school. And bright new S.U.H.S. rings were on our fingers. Leaving the guidance of Mr. Longanecker, we came under the direction of Mr. Cupelli, senior class sponsor. Things happened so fast that it was like a whirl-wind. We have a lot to remember about our senior year. We remember our football team, our magazine campaign, senior pictures, our basketball team, the fun we had putting on our senior play, the dances and parties, and, finally . . . with a lump in our throats, Baccalaureate and the realization of our goal-Commencement. Our football heroes. J? J. fl ' - H ' vi x SEN IORS Genevieve V.

W-mmm The first exciting days spent at South Union High School will long be remembered by the class of 1955. Early in the freshman year, after the daily routine was established, many mem- bers of the class found enjoyment in taking part in our school activities, and also took an en- thusiastic interest in our athletic program. For enjoyment, skating parties and a Christmas party were held. And the climax of an inter- esting year was the class picnic. Now we are Sophomores with new subjects and new teachers.

Sophomores were well rep- resented in all school activies and the remainder of the class could be seen displaying their zealous energy in supporting their classmates. One of the big events of our sophomore year was the cheerleader tryouts. Those chosen to l43J wear the caps were Jacquelyn Sturm, Mary Lucille Ptak, Dorothy Cindric, Loretta Koritko and Carolyn Prough. We are very proud of these girls. Having completed another year of work under their class officers and sponsors, mem- bers of the class of 1955 look forward to their remaining years at South Union High School with enthusiasm. Ml.

As usual, they were re- ferred to as greenies or the babies of our school. They survived the early days, and after becom- ing acquainted with their new surroundings the freshman class of South Union embarked on an eventful year. To lead them through the year, the freshmen choose first leaders: President, Ronald Dit- moreg Vice-President, Gerald Bakotag Secre- i 5 . x 4- 7 5 T X I-fri' h , r '-Q .'

Among the activities planned by these officers and their sponsor, Mr. Hamilton, were two skating parties, and a joyous Christ- mas party. These affairs were all successful be- cause of the co-operation among the students. As the school year continued, the talents of these freshmen were displayed more and more. Many of the boys participated in athletics. Some of these were even outstanding in their particular sport. When Minstrel time arrived, 1 FRESHMEN Abdoo, Mary Catherine Adams.

At the noon hour dances, the freshies weren't bashful. They were always in attendance. This class is very proud to be considered a part of South Union High School. With their hopes high, it is with anticipation that the mem- bers of the class of 1956 bade farewell to the 1952-53 year and look forward to their years as full-fledged upperclassmen. As the curtain descends on another completed semester, the former freshies look to becoming future soph- omores in the coming months.

THE BAND PERFORMED FEATS WITH PRECISION A sharp, shrill whistle, the flash of batons, the rolling of drums, and the Blue and White band marches forward to again set the pace for a strong school spirit which is traditionally South Union. Through many hours of prepara- tion and many late lunches the members of the band drill with enthusiasm to make theirs the pride of S.U.H.S. Without them school spirit would seem empty. The drills during half-time merited praise from the spectators, many of whom have fol- lowed the Band through the seasons just as they do the football team. The performances consisting mainly of novely numbers included: Heart of the West , The Stephen Foster Show , Kiddie Kapersw, Latin American Saga. For each of these numbers, appropriate formations were made in mid-field while the majorettes made formations and twirled. But the end of football season does not mean the Band's activities are over. On the contrary they have just begun, for the spring concert must begin immediately. The larger part of the march repertoire is stored in the files and replaced by overtures, concertos, and other heavier concert selections. Mr. james F. Crossland the director of this musical organization has worked tirelessly for its improvement since he first came to our school four years ago. Through his interest in school music the S.U.H.S. Band has become a symbol of his efforts in the training of the young musician. 51? 1' WK fr 'Q BAND First Row 1Left to Rightr-Sara Vanderglas. Angy Comfort, Connie Carins. Carol Brewer. Tom Rice.

The squad consists of two seniors, three juniors, and three sopho- mores. These girls spend many hours practicing to perfect their routines for games and parades. Our football shows would not be complete with- out our majorettes. The band makes forma- tions while these girls always think up some novelty number of twirling and dance steps. Chosen on their scholastic ability, personality, appearance, marching and twirling, we at S.U.H.S. are proud of our majorettes who worked very hard to make a good name for themselves and their school. CHORUS II S.U.H.S. Chorus II is composed of seventy- three voices which meets everyday in the high school auditorium. The annual Christmas Can- tata is presented by Chorus II. The Cantata is a musical pageant depicting the time of the I54I birth of Christ, and is undoubtedly the most in- spiring performance of the entire school year. The Chorus also provides good entertainment in the Spring Concert. Working steadily and industriously, the re- sults they have achieved are well worth the time and effort. Hats off to the songbirds and their leaderg they're a jolly good crowd. The accompanist is Ida Mae Nixon. CHORUS I The Girls Chorus of S.U.H.S. was organized in 1934 by Clifford W. Brown. This year the enrollment of Freshman girls in Chorus I is fifty. These girls have practiced under the direc- tion of Mr. James F. Crossland. They have worked very hard and will climax the year by singing in the Spring Concert. The accompanists are: Judith Walters, Ro- mona Addis, Marilyn Moss, Marcella Patchan. CHORUS . .

It's purpose is to maintain, create, and extend high standards of christian character. An opportunity is given, by way of personal invitation, to the juniors and Seniors to become a member of the club. This year the club was honored by receiving a trophy from the Uniontown YMCA for being the first to complete their service projects. Some of the worthwhile accomplishments were sending boxes to Korea, gathering food for needy families, buying of a basketball for the YMCA, purchasing window blinds for the school auditorium, and the decorating of the annual Christmas tree. All work and no play was not the complete aim of the Tri-Hi-Y club. Dancing, bowling, swiming, and covered dish supers were well attended during the year. Club funds were raised by means of candy sales and bake sales. With the help of the officers: President, Lois Ansellg Vice President, june Dennis, Secretary, Bernadette Kunkel, Treasurer, Constance Kar- pusg Chaplain, Janet Buchkog and our advisor, Miss Lois Swain, this year has been a pleasant and successful one for the girls. ii l - g ...uf :'.1 ..E-E 2 I 1111 , vtlt Q t.. f,.I.,i x L.-:E-'gi .

The organization is in its second year and is progressing rapidly. Several indoor demonstrations have been given during the winter non-flying season, and many extensive operations are being planned for the summer. Meeting regularly, the work of the Winged Devils club has developed under the leadership of Robert Arendosh, President and Alen Werft, Secretary-Treasurer. No doubt we shall hear more of the work of these boys, under the guidance of Mr. Bryan, as the days go by. Watch for them! HI-Y The Hi-Y Club is an active boys' organiza- tion with representatives from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. It is the aim or pur- pose of this organization to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and com- munity, high standards of Christian Character .

This year's squad consists of six seniors, two juniors, one sophomore, and one freshman. These girls are selected on the basis of their trustworthiness, character and reliability. Each year the patrol girls are given a free ticket and the afternoon off to attend a movie downtown. The duties of the patrol girl are very num- erous, but their primary functions are to see that the girl's room is kept clean and orderly and to discourage girls from cutting classes. The girls are to be congratulated for doing a fine job. PATROL SQUAD This year's patrol squad Consists of fifteen members, including five seniors, five juniors, and five sophomores. The patrol squad regulates student traffic during class changes and has charge of the halls at noon hours. The patrol boys are admitted without charge to all events sponsored by the school and are treated to several movies each year. After serv- ing one year they each receive a school patrol letter. Patrol boys are selected on the basis of re- liability, trustworthiness, scholarship, and char- acter. The squad's sponsor is Mr. Conn Costolo. Ul First Row, Left to Right- Gilbert Eberly.

LIBRARIANS The librarians, under the direction of Mrs. Howard, help the students with their library assignment in looking up material on one sub- ject or another. An inventory of all books and other material is taken twice a year. At this time the books are repaired and put into condition for future use. Besides giving capable assistance to students, the librarians sponsored Fall Festival . The proceeds from such affairs as these and taxes on overdue books go into the library fund to buy new books and equipment. GRADE RECORDERS A few characteristics of Mr. Longanecker's favorite group-his grade recorders--are de- pendability, trustworthiness, honor, and high scholastic ability. They are all very proud to be selected as one of the twelve. This system of transferring grades from the teachers' records to the permanent record books is Very efficiently handledg one day being sufficient to record all grades for any particular period. ,1 fx, OFFICERS AND CHAIRMEN ,...-7 kj.: SQUARE DANCE CLUB SWING YOUR PARTNER . . The South Union Square Dance Club is one of the school's most enthusiastic organizations. The club has been very active since its beginning in 1949. The membership consists of students from the fresh- men, sophomore, junior and senior classes and this year the club has a membership of 230 students. A nominal membership fee is charged, but during each school term the club sponsors a free dance for all members, their friends and guests. In addition many varied and unique programs celebrating Halloween, Christmas, St. Patrick's Day and other special oc- casions have been planned during the history of the club. The various committees have arranged for box socials, pie parties, picnics, Wiener roasts, swimming parties, and just good old fashion square dances. In addition to being a fun making organization, it has also made civic community contributions. At the beginning of this school term, a special program dedicating the newly rennovated honor roll on the school lawn, was attended by the entire student body fContinued on Page 66m JUNIOR GROUP First Row.

Beginning groups are given special instruction in square dancing when they enroll. The first dance of the year was the Fall Foliage Square Dance on October 15, 1952 in the South Union gymnasium and it was a great success. The following affair was a pie party and was attended by more than 200 fans. Each girl brought a pie and the boys furnished the pop and coca-cola. Admission to this affair was free. The Whirlwind was held Jan- uary 22, 1953. Arlene Bruno and Steve Veno were selected as the King and Queen of the Square Dance Club. The final club dance of the school year was the Spring Swing, a post Easter dance on April 8, 1953. The proceeds from the last two dances were used to purchase a large metal desk for the Conference Room, a new addition to the high school. On May 8, 1953, the club held its annual picnic in the form of a ham barbecue at the Twin Chimney Cottage on the Chalk Hill-Ohiopyle Road with the faculty as its guests. A spaghetti dinner and swimming party have been planned for the month of June. Due to the large membership, the picnics and swimming parties are for members only. The dances, however, have been open to all students of South Union as well as neighboring high schools. As a whole the club pro- motes good wholesome fun and sportsmanship for the students who love to square dance. I6 61 SOPHOMORE GROUP First Row, Left to Right-James Hostetler, John Vratarich.

Folowing the popular axiom, The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, the Home Economics Department is helping many a girl to become a better homemaker. Many people learn to cook and sew by the trial and error method, but not these young ladies. These girls assist in the operation of the cafeteria, serving about three hundred and fifty students each day. Thus they receive a prac- tical education in the planning and preparation of foods, and an opportunity to acquire skill in the use of modern equipment. The girls know that this training will always be useful to them after they leave school. Along with their culinary efforts, they learn the art of good grooming and dressing attrac- tivelyg for whether she plans to make a home or a career, a knowledge of these arts and the ability to apply them are helpful to every girl. Realizing this, the Home Economics Depart- ment offers a course designed to make tomor- row's housewives capable, efficient, and charm- mg.

These cheerful girls are our junior cheer- leaders who are very eager to take over in their senior year. They have been practicing a lot and will be very efficient when the new year begins. Much effort has been put forth by these girls together with the senior cheer- leaders to put spirit into our school. AWARD DAY r WILLIAM RINK DEGELMAN FRANCES ELLEN TRUMAN PATRICIA IOAN GRAINGER Salutatorian Vcrledicloriun High Honor South Union has put many years of educa- tion and character building into its students with the aim to create an enthusiasm for schol- arship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership, and to develop character. ' Each year, students of South Union High School who excel in various fields are honored on an annual Award Day. This is the day when medals, awards, and letters are presented to those students whose individual accomplish- ments place them on the top of the ladder of school success. Medals are presented to the outstanding students in each department of the school cur- riculum. Honor award pins are presented to those students who have been outstanding in scholarship, leadership, character, and service. It is on this day that the class valedictorian and salutatorian are announced. Also the most popular boy and girl, as selected by their class- mates, and other awards for all-around out- standing students. The Patrol Squad is thanked and honored on this day, and letters are presented to those boys who have served on the squad for one year. Our students this year have been prominent and have earned honors for our school and themselves extending far beyond our own school sphere in most every phase of living. First, let us consider the field of music-Joy Lynn Sica, a much applauded vocal soloist, has earned a I7 place in the Civic Light Opera of Pittsburgh, this is an outstanding accomplishment and the first such honor to come to our school. Now, let us view the field of beauty and popularity- here, we find Janie Hawthorne being selected as Teen Queen over contestants from all high schools in this area. We have also been able to hold our own in scholastic endeavors-William Degelman having brought prominence to our school by obtaining the highest rating in the Pennsylvania History Contest. Then in the field of English, we have Gerald Piper winning first place in a county-wide essay contest en- titled The Physically Handicapped. Gerald also won third place in the Rotary International essay contest entitled Stumbling Blocks to Real International Growth. Once again we hear from William Degelman who won first place in the Stumbling Blocks essay and his efforts have been awarded with a four-year scholarship to the University of Pittsburgh, Temple, Pennsylvania, or Penn State, depend- ing on his choice. William also won first place in the Brotherhood contest sponsored by the B'nai B'rith. Nancy Virosco, a junior, won first place in the Junior Chamber of Commerce con- test, I Speak for Democracy, with William Degelman again scoring by earning the second spot in that contest. All in all, South Union has had a very suc- cessful year. We doff our hats to the class, to the individuals, and in our hearts we say thanks to the unseen power that has helped us on our way. as 01 NE SALUTE OUR HONOR STUDENTS HONOR PINS Qln alphabetical orderl SENIORS RosE BRNICH WILLIAM DEGELMAN JUNE DENNIS JANET DEVAN PATRICIA GRAINGER CONSTANCE KARPUS GERALD PIPER CAROLYN POLLOCK EDNA MAE PULLIN AGATI-IA SALTRICK GLENN SCARLETT HELEN TEETS FRANCES TRUMAN JUNIORS DOLORES BURZAWA ROMA DEBOLT JOHN KAVLICK JOAN MINER SARA VANDERGLAS NANCY VIRosCo SOPHOMORES ELAINE CUTLER JEAN WALTERS ALLEN WERFT ELIZABETH ZABORSKY FRESHMEN NORMA MACKENZIE THELMA MILLER SUBIECT AWARDS Social Science ..I,..,.,.,,,,,,,,,,,,,.........,.,,.,,,,,,,,,,, GERALD PIPER Industrial Arts, III,IIII.......,.,.I,I ...,.IIII V ICTOR COLBERT Foreign Language ,,,,,,,,.,..,.....,. ,,... , FRANCES TRUMAN Physical Education C Boy j ....... ,,,..........I,,, G ERALD PIPER Physical Education CGirlj ....... ,L,.,...

Although Coach Ringy Stefancin's South Union Blue Devils were defeated in four of their eight games, they finally ended their sea- son with a record of three wins, four losses, and one tie. With a few breaks and alertness, the Devils could have turned in at least two more victories. Even though the record shows only a fair season, its progressiveness means that we can expect great accomplishments from future squads. The 1952 team consisted of twelve seniors. A rebuilding program will have to be done, but we feel Coach Stefancin won't have any trouble putting out a good team for the 1953 season.

In the last game of the year, under the lead- ership of Coach Stefancin, an inspired Blue and White grid machine notched a decisive 14-0 upset victory over our arch-rivals from across town, the North Union Rams. This, by the way, was claimed to be the biggest upset in Fayette County this season. This victory brought the SUN trophy back to the hall showcase of good old South Union High. Although the team had four losses, the sea- son was very successful in the sense that we did maul the Rams. After losing the opening game to Carmichaels by the score of 19-0, the Mikes, by the way, going on to win the Class B title, the Blue Devils won a gruelling 13 to 0 decision over Masontown. Next, the Blue and Whites lost a hard fought contest to Georges. Then, when we invaded the German Township hunting grounds, the roof really caved in. German, who went on to lose a close game to Midland in the WPIAL play- offs, had to their advantage two of the most capable backs in the district, Ward and Ford. These two combined created a hurricane and when the dust cleared we were on the short end of a 48-7 score. Paced by the power and drive of left-halfback Som Soich, whose one-yard thrust off left tackle proved to be the margin of victory, the Blue and White won a close 13-7 contest over the Waynesburg Yellow Jackets. The following Left to Right-Frank Hamilton, Athletic Director: Joseph Stefancin, Football Coach, Russell Hasson, Assistant Coach week, Dunbar, taking advantage of a crippled South Union eleven, had little difficulty in taking the measure of the Blue Devils at Dun- bar. Rebounding from the pervious week's loss, the Devils managed to come back from behind to tie Centerville. The final score was 14-14. The following week our determined Blue Devils ended their 1952 season on a triumph- ant note, upsetting arch-rival North Union, 14-0. The alert Blue Devils, who recovered seven North Union fumbles, struck overhead for both of their touchdowns. SENIOR LINEUP Front, Left to Right-Pollak, Comfort, Petno, Natoli, Hall, Cowie, Nypaver.

Among the boys men- tioned on All-County were: BOB SOICH, a fine halfback, good enough to make any team in the county. TED NYPAVER, a tiger on defense, and a capable pass receiver. South Union will miss the services of this fine end next year. TOM DITMORE, a good quarterback in the clutch. South Union won many a football game through Ditty's quick thinking. CARL PETNO, guard, unfortunately hurt in the second game, was out for the remainder of the season. NOODLES HALL, a hard-charging guard, who was always in on the tackles. Noodles was a player with spunk and determination. When football is talked of in South Union these boys are sure to be the topic of discussion. When the A11-County team of '52 was picked, South Union High had its share of positions. Off balance Slashing goalvwnd BASKETBALL . . .

With a little luck on the close ones, the team could have finished the season with a much higher standing. The Blue Devil basketball team got off to a slow start this year. The hoopsters dropped all four of the exhibition games, and three straight league games, before they had a taste of victory. The Devils then started to show form, winning three contests in a row. They beat Masontown in a 60-36 runaway, Redstone 67-56, and Point Marion in a thrilling 50-49 overtime game. Two games later, South Union pulled what was prob- ably the biggest upset of the scholastic season by defeating Georges, 69-67. Coach Marty Fagler will lose three first stringers this year-Bill Oberleitner, Don Hel- lein, and Tom Ditmore. Top-notch players that will be back to give a lot of teams trouble next year are Scott Grimm and Steve Veno, who were regulars this year, and Chuck Davis, Bucky 0 Assistant Coach Russell Hasson looks on as Head Coach Martin Fagler maps out strategy for a coming game. Barton, Bill George, Jim Stotelmeyer, and Eddie Edenfield. Head Coach Marty Fagler and Assistant Coach Russ Hasson have high hopes for next year. Lack of height is the only holdback for the 1953-54 squad. Other than that, they should have a well rounded team. The team behind the team.
