T-T DEDICATION MOTHER-DAD ELECTIIA It was your tender care, your loving kindness and seh'-sacryice that made our high school days a possihilily. To you, with hearts full of gratitude, we, the Class of 1937, dedimle this Electra. issue of the ELEC'l'llAl.ii The History of Springdale Westward ho! The pioneering movement was on! Our res less 'orefathers on the eastern seaboard pushed relentlessly on over the Alleghenies in search of new landsto conquer. As they came into Western Pennsylvania many of them recognized the possibilities of a settlement on the fertile land on the north bank of the Allegheny River. Thus, the early settlers established their homes from Colfax to the present location of the American Glue Factory. The tiny settlement grew rapidly and in 1820 with the establish- ment of a postofhce, it became necessary to choose a name for it. Sarah A. Keene, daughter of the first postmaster, chose the name Springdale because of the abundance of springs in the district. The need for education was met in 1838 when the first public school was built i'n Carsonfs Grove. Springdale developed further with the addition of five churches and a hospital. Also, there were several thriving industries here at that time. Perhaps the most common method used to transport their products was the canal boat. VVagons were used for overland transportation. The chief highways were over Butler Street to Butler, then an important center, and the equally rough and muddy thoroughfare from Pittsburghto New Kensington. Springdale's business section developed early in the life of the town. The stores were located, from the beginning along Pittsburgh Street, since it is a part of the state route. It was during the boom period of post war days that the greatest expansion of our main street took place. ' The hustle and bustle of the VVorld VVar period found Springdale ready to step in and do her part. The newly organized Boy Scout Troop Number l was especially active at this time and the Spring- dale Branch of the American Red Cross was then organized. In 1921 the local business and professional men organized the Chamber of Commerce. This organization has accomplished such worthwhile projects as the White VVay lighting for Pittsburgh Street, and the Public Nursing Service. Through their efforts we now have three well equipped school buildings. So, coming from such pioneering stock, and with such worthy examples of civic spirit behind us, may we carry Springdale on to new heights of progress. , i i..l-1- l.. .

We were a crowd of starry-eyed youngsters, our heads filled with rosy dreams when we all met at the old school that never-to-be-forgotten morning in September. New vistas opened before our eyes. Four glorious years of high school terminated by our present goal-graduation. We did come down to earth long enough, however, to see the wisdom of choosing a leader who could lead us through the new difficulties we would encounter, and keep us on our course. We chose Bette Shoop. Ever alert to the needs of the students, the freshmen class produced a play A Bunch of Fun, directed by Miss Charlotte Fisher, in order to purchase a radio to be used for our practice dances. Life went on then, for a while, in a comparatively even tenor until we came to the Sophomore year, toward which we had been so expectantly looking. It was rather humiliating after our superior position in the old schoolas Freshmen, to be looked down upon pityingly and with amusement, by the Juniors and Seniors in our, to us, advanced position of Sophomores in the Senior High School. How we looked forward to the day when we would be Seniors! Our heads teemed with plans for hazing the Sophomores when it was our turn. Clearly what we needed more than ever, it seemed, was someone to help us get our bearings, and again it was Bette Shoop whom we chose to fill this position. Once set- tled, we found something challenging in our situation and we determined to prove our mettle. At last we were ushered into the portals of upperclassmen by Jack Filer. It was with a sigh of satisfaction and relief that we followed him, not only because we believed him to be capable of Hlling this office, but also because we felt we were vested with some of our former prestige. Our first great responsibility was laid upon our shoulders. when we entered the Junior Class and were faced with the fact that we had to have money for the Junior and Senior Prom, and money with which to start financing the Electra on which we had set our hearts from the time we were Freshmen. In spite of the activities we sponsored, we found that we lacked the funds necessary to give the Prom. VVe surmounted this obstacle by our determination to win, our will- ingness to work, and by Jello. Jello became the dessert, for we all turned salesmen and persuaded our customers that there was nothing like Jello for dessert, food for invalids, and children. Our efforts cleared the way for the Prom where we danced to the music of Ken Francis. The orchestra appeared in the pent-house atmosphere of the gym, created by Frances Brown and her committee. This success of the Prom gave us a buoyancy which carried over into our Senior year. To sustain this feeling and direct it into the right channels, the Senior Class elected George Meanor as its president. Under George's leadership we launched our campaign for financing the Electra by selling Christmas candy. The Seniors answered that age-old question, Is there a Santa Claus? by tucking the Christmas Dance into the stocking of work-filled days. Days filled with frenzied activities followed: Class Night committees racking their heads for original ideas, students trading name-cards, getting autographs, and attending the Prom at which we were, this time, the guests. These activities gave way finally, to the gay hilarity of Class Night, and to the queit peacefulness of Baccalaureate. Then, with our diplomas in our hands, we were filled with the triumph of having realized our goal, but underneath it all was the half- sad feeling that we were parting, perhaps never to meet again.

Pagc Thirty-Iwo unior Class History In the fall of 1934, a group of enthusiastic but backward boys and girls entered the Junior High School on School Street as Freshmen. After meeting the other students from out of town we started that very successful and eventful year. Each class chose its own leaders who met in Student Council and selected as their officers James Hickey and Ann Marks. XVe had several practice dances, parties, and also many assembly programs. The next fall found us in the Senior High School. James Hickey was again elected president of the class to preside at the Class Cabinet meetings. Robert Rearick was elected vice-president and Charlotte Kastl, secretary-treasurer. VVhen Sophomores, the class was not particularly active. VVe gave a very informal Sophomore Hop which proved a great success. In September we found ourselves Juniors. This seemed impossible, because it was such a short time ago that we were only coming out of eighth grade. James Hickey was again chosen to lead the class but resigned and VVilliam Goodlow, who had been elected vice-presi- dent, became president. Everyone was very enthusiastic and of course decided to earn money for a Year Book. The first activity of the year was a skate which was well attended. On March 2, the class presented the play, The Eagle Screarm, which was directed by Mr. Neal Kline. Many thanks go to Miss Sober, one of the Junior sponsors, who encouraged the sale of tickets. Other activities in- cluded the Junior Dance in April and the Junior-Senior Prom in May. In the Held of athletics, the class of '38 has been proud of such boys as Sherosky, Rearick, Hickey, Killian, Goodlow, Filer, Korpany, Drab, Wlenzel and many others. VVe hope to have a very active Senior Class. Florence Borland. . Sophomores ELECTBA ELECTIIA 5 W ve L ' L L L - - L f - L f - L Lli' 1 igb k wi.

There were, that year, starting to the Springdale Grade School,approximately eighty pupils. Today we have one hundred eighty-one in the class but this increase is due mostly to the fact that a large number ofthe students are from Cheswick, Harwick, Russellton, and the other neighboring towns. Time marched on and soon junior High School days were upon us. Before our graduation from grade school the American Legion awarded a medal and certificate to the boy and girl who were the best citizens and the best all-around students. Those to receive the awards were Robert Hendrickson and Margaret Brown. In our Freshman year our Dramatic Club presented a play en- titled fluntie Up which proved to be a success. Robert Hendrickson was president of the Student Council and has always been a leader in his class. He is now president ofthe Sophomore Class, the other officers being Melvin Cooper, vice president, Mary Hamilton, secre- tary, and Paul Medal, treasurer. Turning our attention toward athletic.s we rind that our boys are well represented and that they appear on the basketball, football, and tennis teams.

Activities ELECTRA ELECTRA.-.M- Tri-Hi-Y The organization has made great progress this year with Jean Maginn as president. At the open ing ofthe school term the regular procedure of initiation caused much mirth around the school. For several days the initiates were not permitted to wear bobby pins, use make-up, or speak to their fellow classmates. A penny line was the penalty for each violation. After this the members became active. The most successful social activity sponsored by the Tri-Hi-Y during this year was the skate held at Blawnox on October 16. An excellent time was had by everyone who attended. Other social activities included a skirt and sweater hop, and sev- eral swimming parties at the Tarentum Y. M. C. A. VVe just couldn't resist celebrating our sponsor's birthday. Miss Lois Blair was surprised by a hand- kerchief shower that was held for her during one of our meetings. Of course, our club thought not only of pleasure, but also of philan- thropic work. The Tri-Hi-Y was responsible for having the school radio repaired, we prepared baskets of food for the less fortunate for Thanksgivingg volunteer members aided the Community Fund Campaign by having a house to house canvass of Springdale to obtain money. Eight weeks of our time was devoted to a Bible Study course. It was very interesting since we were fortunate to have Mrs. Jamison as our teacher. Her cooper- ation and interest in our club was greatly appre- ciated. YVe were honored by having Alice Borland, the district president of Tri-Hi-Y, as one of our active members. Excellent cooperation has been shown in our club by the following commit- tees and their chairmen: Social- Betty Marshall, Music-Laura Canning, Devotional-Alice Borland, Publicity-Viiu ginia Brintong and Pro- gram-Helen Lincoln. Page Forlyfour ,....-..ELECTIlA Hi-Y C The Hi-Y is an active branch ofthe Y. M. C. A. The fact that the Springdale Hi-Y is a crowd of hard working fellows is proven by their work in the school and the record of their work in the Central Wlest branch ofthe state organization. This club sent seven members to the annual Older Boys Conference this year held at Beaver Falls. Nationally famed speakers and ministers were pre- sent and the three-day convention brought together boys from all over Nvestern Pennsylvania. All ofthe club members went to a banquet held at Vandergrift for the installation of ollicers, who were later to be sent to Harris- burg. George Meanor was Springdale's delegate. The club members spent several evenings at the Tarentum Y. M. C. A. Ministers ofall the local churches spoke during Prayer Week in our school assemblies. The tennis courts and score board were made by the Hi-Y. The Hi-Y also entered into the social activ- ities ofthe school. Dances, skates, basketball games, parties, and banquets were sponsored. Through the combined help of the fac- ulty and sponsor, Mr. John Spalic, the Hi-Y proved to be a fine group of re- ligious young men. The ofl-icers were: George Meanor ................. .......

To insure a good send-off, the twenty-three members capably chose the following oflicers to represent them for 1936-37: Frances Trempus as editor-in-chief, Bette Shoop as news editorg Ruth Sharon as feature writer, Donna Schafer as sports editor, John Brodka as chief cartoonistg and Miss Phyllis Stanier as adviser. Among the outstanding activities sponsored by the club were: two popularity contests, a Christmas party, the sending of Frances Trempus, Ruth Sharon, and Bette Shoop as delegates to the P. S. P. A. Convention in Hershey, entering the Oriole in various news- paper contestsg and far from the least of their accomplishments, publishing the bi-weekly school paper, the Oriole. Wlill we journalists of the future ever forget the Friday afternoons when the Orioles were to come winging out to the S. H. S. readers full of news and cheer? Usually, they were ready and waiting, but there were times when the old mimeograph whirled out copies in triple time, and even the editors were put to work! And so the tra- dition, The paper must be out by 4:00 , was kept sacred and unbroken. The club may feel justified in proclaiming a most successful year.

B etty Shoop ELECTIIA Page F arty-:even ELECTIIA - page Forty-eight Dramatic Club The Dramatic Club was organized at the beginning of the term. The club's main purpose is to enrich the lives of the students by enabling them to enjoy the full value of drama. Each week a committee was appointed to provide entertainment for the meeting of the coming week. This arrangement was well carried out and many different types of entertainment were thus covered. Scenes from great classics such as MacBelh were portrayed by our verly able actors and actresses. Much benefit was derived from these portrayals, even if Lady Macbeth Cin the sleep-walking scenej was forced to use a pencil for a candle, and Juliet Cduring the famous balcony scenej was quite effective, standing on a chair. Short comedies were given, and readings and monologues proved to be favorites. Many reports on current plays and movies were discussed and studied caifully. Costumes, lighting effects, and sound efects were also studied, for who knows-we may have in our midst, another Cecile B. DeMille, or, in the line of actresses, a Katharine Cornell. Public speaking figured greatly in our club. Each member was assigned a declamation which he memorized and gave at some time during the year. In connection with this, Miss Ruth Borland, our sponsor, analyzed the speaking voices of certain members of the club, and gave suggestions for correcting speech diliiculties. The club was responsible for two assembly programs in which the members participated, and sponsored the visit ofMr. George VVheeler, a member of the Olympic Team, who brought us a very interesting lecture about his experiences abroad. An occasional social time added to the pleasures derived from our club.

Etiquette Club In September a group of students, under the sponsorship of Miss Hilda Laub, met and organized an Etiquette Club. Edna Hamilton was elected president, John Ravera, vice president, and Edna Large, SCCI ef3.l'y-tliCHSUYCl'. The purpose of this club was to help each member develop ease and grace in associations with other people in various forms of social life, to steer one's mind from self-consciousness, to promote and develop courtesy in our school, in our liomes, and elsewhere. ln October our club was responsible for one ofthe High School's assembly programs. Three locally prominent men, Mr. H. Clowes, Mr. C. M. Borland, and Reverend E. V. Condron, and three students, Frances Brown, Bette Shoop, and Jack Filer, stressed the points of etiquette. During the semester the group discussed and learned different phases of etiquette which included instruction in giving and re- ceiving introductionsg table manners, the use of courtesy in con- veyances, such as street cars, buses, trains, and automobiles, courtesy on the dance floor, in the theater, and other public gatherings. The members of the club feel that they were benefited by the aims and purposes for which the club was organized. ELECTRA Page Forly-nine ICLECTIIA ..,.....- Pnge Fwy Model Airplane and Radio Club Every Thursday we met in Mr. Neal Kline's room and used the first part of the period to discuss our business. After all of the business was dispensed w1th,the club separated and each section worked as a separate unit. RADIO SECTION The Radio Section was organized with the purpose of teaching all be- ginners how to build radios and to understand radio symbols. Our plans for the year were to build radios, a transmitter, and a public address system. We also planned to explain the terms and theories of radios. The greater number of the boys in the club were experienced in radio building. Many of the members hoped to become radio amateursg that is, get an operator's license and become operators of short wave stations. We have thus far built a radio set in school, but most of the members built their own sets at home, where they had all of their material and tools at hand. MODEL AIRPLANE SECTION The Model Airplane Section which consisted of eleven boys was also spon- sored by Mr. Neal Kline. Most ofthe boys were experienced model builders and they were all members of the Junior Birdmen. They formed a chapter and received their ofiicial officer bars and other materials. Thecommander was Bob Panetto and the captain was Bruno Costello. Mr. Neal Kline's room was especially well- iitted for their meetings as it had drawers in which the boys might lock their material, and tables on which to work. During their meetings the boys worked on models, exchanged ma- terials, and discussed aeiionautics in general. They planned to hold a few displays and also a contest. The boys built a few airplanes during their meetings and one of the boys com- pleted a seven-foot model. Most of the members were .Iuniors and Sopho- mores and planned to get a model gasoline engine next year and to build a gasoline power model as a club projeCt. Automobile Club The Automobile Club of our school, with a membership of seven- teen students, sponsored by Mr. Lee Aber,had purposes and accom- plishments well worth being recognized. Because of the rapidly mounting accident rate for young automobile drivers, it was ourpurpose to be concerned with aprogram of safety education,which would reach young people and those learning to drive. If young people, the ones with whom we are concerned, are going to drive, it becomes the re- sponsibility ol' the school to give them as good a preparation in the fundamental facts about good driving as is possible. This type of automotive training is being promoted in the schools because the motor vehicle commissioners realize that even with the best d1'iver's license laws they will be unable to provide adequate training without the aid of the schools. Our club was supplied weekly with pamphlets, published by the Travelers Insurance Company. These pamphlets which contained facts of safe driving were read and then discussed by members of the club. We hope that some time the club can buy an old automobile and place the mechanical parts of the car in the school so that stu- dents inay be instructed concerning the mechanics ofthe automobile. ELECTIIA Page F iffy-one ELECTIIA .- . - Page F UU-Iwo Pep Club On-e of the clubs newly organized this year was the Pep Club, originally consisting of sixty-three members Csixty girls and three boysl with Mr. Lee Corter as sponsor. The present membership is fifty. In the fall we elected the following officers: Verna Berger ................................ President Susie Sabo .... . . . ...... First Assistant Jane Caylor. ........... ............... S econd Assistant Ida DeSantis ....................... Secretary-Treasurer Our officers have proved very worthy and have been doing ex- cellent work. A social committee was also elected consisting of Eliza- beth Prohaska, chairman, and Dorothy Berger, her assistant. Our club had no dues and therefore not much outside work was done. VVe have helped other clubs in any way we could, especially in attending any activities of the school. A very important reason for our club is to boost the pep throughout Springdale High School. VVe had a very peppy cheering section at all football and basketball games. Our president, one ofthe school cheerleaders, led our group. All of our meetings have been very interesting. When our club was new we had Get-Acquainted Meetings in which each person was to tell in brief form all about herself. After we became acquainted, committees consisting of five mem- bers each, were chosen. Each committee was responsible for a club meeting. These meetings were all very interesting, each meeting being different and a surprise, even to our sponsor. After each com- mittee took its turn, we played games and danced. In january a Penny Social was held, in February, a Valentine Party. To celebrate Washington's birthday, hilarious games were played in keeping with the occasion, such as pinning cherries on' the cherry tree. Our club song is Cheer, Darn You, Cheer. , .i- Cheerleaders Yea High! Yea Springdale! S-p-r-i-n-g-d-a-l-el And so the cheerleaders go on with their duty creating an interest in sports, working up pep, and getting the general cooperation of the student body. This year the cheerleaders were Vernon Shoop, head cheerleader, Eleanor Carter, Verna Berger, Regina Killian, Jane Caylor, James Darrall, Jean Heasley, and Marvin Sleppy. As we see them on the field, we think of things such as these: Our head cheerleader is Vernon Shoop Who conducts himself as a Senior should And cheers through a megaphone with a whoop, While doing the motions with one grand swoop. A charming brunette with Irish blue eyes, VVho cheers loud and with art, Come on now before the start. A Senior with lots and lots of curls A smiling face, a pleasant girl, She'll be missed here after June For graduation's all too soon. The tall, blonde girl who cheers on the end, And who gives the yells till she has to bend. On the other end is the Caylor lass, A born cheerleader, first and last. Jimmie, a boy? A daring young man! He leads the cheering as well as he can, He loudly blows his trumpet in the band- Ring-master, cheerleader,-Springdalels MAN. She hates to wash dishes and to sweep the floors, But when it comes to cheerleading, um-m-m that isn't a bore! Marvin Sleppy, in stature small, But a voice that carries and drowns them all. At every game that Springdale played they were well represented by these young people. A lot of credit may be handed to Mr. Lee Corter, sponsor, and Vernon Shoop, head cheerleader.

It consisted of twenty-five pieces and made its first appearance at a basketball game. Thirty uniforms were purchased and given to the band by the Senior Class of 1935 and the School Board. The first concert was given by the band with the aid of the chorus and orchestra in the second week of April. The band remained active during the summer, taking part in many parades in nearby towns. In the fall after school had begun, the band paraded at all of the football games. A winter concert was given in the latter part of November, the instrumentation being enlarged to about forty pieces. At all the basketball games the band was present. The second Spring Concert was given in April. 1936. In May, 1936, the Springdale Band took part in the concert given by the combined bands of Allegheny County at the Syria Mosque. During the summer the band remained as active as ever, taking part in many parades and giving a concert at Cheswick for their OLD HOME NVEEK. The number of pieces was increased to about sixty during the summer. The band accompanied the Springdale Firemen to Monessen for their parade. By the beginning of the school term of 1937, the band had two units: a marching band and a concert band. The concert band con- sisted of the more experienced players. During the football season of '37 the band numbered sixty-Five pieces. ln November the band purchased a set of tympany and the school board bought ten more uniforms. The winter concert was given in the second week of December, 1937. The band gave a spring concert and participated in a musical festival of combined Allegheny County High School Bands in Pittsburgh. . 1...i-LL-1 1- Combined Orchestra This group of musicians is composed af all the orchestra members of the Colfax, Junior and Senior High School students. The Colfax Grade School Orchestra consists of about twenty-five players, the Junior High Orchestra of about thirty, and the Senior High Orches- tra of about twenty players. Each group has its own rehearsals and spends most of its time working on music for the Annual Spring Concerts. ELECTRA Page Ififtyfve ELECTRA -1l...1l. -il..1-il..

The High School Dance Orchestra I'1Ot only has charming music, but a definite purpose behind it, that purpose being to make school dances and gatherings more enjoyable. Its members were drafted from the band and orchestra, and they started functioning as a group in February, 1936. Since that time they have enjoyed many rehearsals and public performances together,-the biggest functions of the year being the Sophomore and Junior Class Dances. On the roll call ofthe dance band we have the following: the saxa- phone sectionlcomposed of VVilliam Yates, Ambrose Filer, Joseph Louche, Victor Dalcherone, and James Zigarella. In the bnass sec- tion we have Fred Luther, Roy Fellers, Lawrence Armstrong, and Ben Jarmul with trumpets, while Jack Ramaley and VVilliam Davis constitute the trombone section. Julius Lorenzio and George Puskas work out on the violins, and Benny Mancon,i squeezes the accordion. The rhythm section consists of jack Filer on the drums, Sam Dal- cherone on the guitar, Ann Zelinski at the piano, and Mr. Carl Bremer behind the big bass horn. And when their leader Junior Bremer, brings down his baton, the boys in the band begin to play their theme song, Bye, Bye Blues. 11- 1- . H. S. Chorus The Springdale High School Mixed Chorus was one ofthe newer organizations of our school. It was organized the second semester with Mr. Carl Bremer as conductor and sponsor. The club was composed of fifty boys and girls who enjoy singing both popular and classical music.

As is explained by the name, the membership is limited to girls only and is organized for the purpose of broadening our knowledge of sports. Among the activities undertaken by the club were the Bowery Dance which was a great success, dancing lessons at noon in the gym, an Assembly program, which set us all to humming and whist- .ing the Dark Town Sf7'IllfF7',5 Ball for a week afterwardg one night game in basketball with the Tri-l-li-Y, and many games after school.

The starring team included Mary Gondak, centerg Mary Semenick, side centerg Eleanor Carter QCaptainD, Teresa Fajbik, and Vera Duris, forwardsg Veronica Secora and Alice Strama, guards. On February eleventh the team went to East Deer to play the Sports Club there. The girls were serious rivals to the boys in appearance when they got their new suits-orange and black, of course. The club started with twelve members, but the membership soon grew to twenty-five and was then limited to that number. The ma- jority of the twenty-five were juniors, with two Seniors, and two Sophomores. Miss Dorothea Tomlinson was the able sponsor ofthe club. The ofiicers were Charlotte Kastl, President, Eileen Kaiser, Vice President, Elsie Golya, Secretary, and Eleanor Carter, Treasurer.

It was composed of forty ambitious members, twenty girls and twenty boys. The club endeavored to fulfill its purpose by working diligently and success has been theirs under the able direction of Miss Hazel Ellenberger. We are confident that this club has attained a high standard of achievement and promoted further interest in the work for the coming year. L- .... , Life-Saving Club The Life-Saving Club of the Springdale High School was instituted by Mr. John Shuster, a member of the faculty, at the beginning of the '36 school year. There were twenty-four members who took active part in the club and its activities. The aims ofthe club were: to become familiar with life-saving methodsg to better the swimming of studentsg to build both the body and the mindg to promote divingg and to enjoy swimming as a recreation. The club devoted part of its time to business and current topics pertaining to life-saving. The remaining part ofthe hour was given to Mr. john Shuster who gave the members instruction in the Red Cross method of life-saving. Thursday evenings were spent at the poollof the Y. M. C. A. in New Kensington practicing the methods taug t. There were other outside activities carried on by the club. During the football and basketball seasons the members sold tickets and candy which benefited the club as well as the Athletic Association. Two assembly programs were sponsored: the Amateur Hour and the Hit Parade of Popular Songs, with the assistance of the Springdale High School Band. A skate was held on March 12. Life-saving tests were given to the members during the last months of school. The students who passed the tests received life-saving emblems from the Red Cross.

The Pageant was a riot of color and gaiety. Decorations in the gymnasium were carried out in the patriotic scheme of red, white, and blue. The brilliant, beautiful costumes of strange lands added more atmosphere to the affair. This unusual and enjoyable program contained everything, from the sinuous grace and jingling tambourines of Spanish senoritas, and the comedy of two Russian peasants telling a story in song, to the quaintness of an old German folk dance and the sing-song of ex- otically robed Orientals.

The '36-'37 season was one of the worst years in the S. H. S. basketball records, although we didn't.expect too much on account ofthe comparative smallness of our quintet. The varsity was made up entirely of Juniors. Since the boys will all be experienced next year, Coach Ripper is looking forward to a good season. The letter men are James Hickey, Einar Sherosky, Henry Drab, Bennie Zemenski, Alex Korponay, Paul Killian, Robert Rearick, Richard VVenzel, and VVilliam Goodlow. James Hickey was the '36-,37 Captain and he proved to be the starring player. In the tournament at Ken Hi, Apollo knocked Springdale out of the running but only after working an extra period. It was a hard fought, thrill-packed game and one of the best played this year. An- other tournament game was lost to Braddock with a close score. The season ended with the hilarious faculty game on March 8th. Coach Ripper announces a very tough schedule for next season, but we predict S. H. S. will come out on top. 1.lll. - unior Varsity The Springdale junior Varsity enjoyed a very successful year, winning 14 out ofthe 20 games played. This team is composed of a group of hard working boys who will become the varsity in a year or so. Its main purpose is to give the younger boys experience. The team was coached by Mr. Morrow, who did a good job of bringing the team into the winning column, and captaine-d by Wood- row Howells, who seemed to put the fight into the boysf Most of the boys had played under the guidance of Mr. Morrow, their former junior High coach. The team started out with a bang, but when a few members were advanced to the Varsity the Junior Varsity team slumped in a few games. After the boys became accustomed to working together their victories outnumbered their losses. ELECTRA Page Sixiiv-,veuzn ELECTRA Page .S'ixly-right Tennis Team Our team was organized by Mr. Lynn Hayes in 1935. There was a careful selection from the large group of try-outs. The new team try-outs worked hard under Mr. Hayes' guidance and established a fine record for its first season. In 1936, with Charles Langstaiif, the only letter man, the team had a poor start, but ended the season taking third place in the Al- legheny-Kiski Valley League. Because ofthe resignation of Mr. Lynn Hayes from the faculty, Mr. Joseph Hlista, an excellent tennis player, became the coach this season. Mr. Joseph Hlista started training in early March. There were four letter men from the '36 season: Lawrence Ferguson, Frank Wardlow, Robert Rearick, and Ellsworth Caylor. With these players and some promising newcomers the team of '37 anticipated many activities. All rules and regulations used by us are established by the United States Tennis Association. The schools with which our team com- petes are: Har-Brac, New Kensington, Vandergrift, and Tarentum. The boys of the school built two courts on the school ground to encourage more students to enjoy the healthy body-building game of tennis. L.l-. .- ..... . 1- S. H. S. Golf Team History Golf is a game of skill and concentration During recent years it has been accepted in high school competition. Golf history in Springdale High School dates back to 1933 when a small delegation of interested boys sought out Mr. Lee Cotter as a sponsor for the sportin our school. Mr. Corterhas been with the GolfTeam ever since. In VVestern Pennsylvania, high school competition is conducted by the Interscholastic Golf Conference. The Conference is composed of six sections, with each section having five schools in competition. During the iirst season,Springdale placed third in its sectiongin 1934 the team came home in second place. In that year also Tony Koprivnicar won the first prize for having the lowest medal score in the Inlersrholaslif Individual Chrzmpionslzip Tournament. In '35 the team finished second and also was chosen to compete in the championship play-off's for conference honors. For this they re- ceived a trophy. In 1936 the team again came in second. The '36 team's captain, Joseph M'm'eka,took third place in the PV. P. I. fl. L. Individual Competilion Tazzrnavzwzt for all schools and thereby was chosen to play at Penn State in the State Champions Finals. The outlook for 1937 was uncertain, because three of our good prospects from last year were not with us. George Meanor, the number three man of our 1936 team was the only veteran left. The following boys made up the 1937 team: 37 George Meanor ' Robert Harsacky , '33 Eddie Brzywczy '38 John Hafera '38 Jack Ramaley '38 Charles Borland '39 Louis Butcher '39 Joseph Martinek '40 Albert Klimenko '39 Ed Mareka '40 Dan Trebac '38 In 1936, Spriizgdzzlc was in Section III, competing with Hai'-Brac, dspinwzzll, New Kensingtoiz, and Kixki. Kiski won the section but S. H. S. was a close runner-up. The schedule included two matches with each ofthe other schools in our section. All home matches are played on the Harmar course.

It was divided into two sections: track and held. The track events consist of the 100-and 220-yard sprints and the 440-and 880-yard runsg also included is a quarter-mile relay made up of four runners who compete in the shorter sprints and runs. In the field events there are discus throws, shot puts, baseball throws, high jumps, and broad jumps. This year's team had a pole vaulter and a javelin throwerg also in the track events we added the high and low hurdles and the half- mile run. Last year's relay team was made up of four fast sprinters: Norman Noble, Eugene Gascaly, Jack Ryan, and Joe Timko. This year's team suffered the loss of Norman Noble through graduation, but because more interest has been taken by the students this spring, We have a better and larger team. The Junior High team competed in the Allegheny County and the Junior VV. P. I. A. L. track meets. The teams included Charles Borland, Mike Durket, Louis Iskovitz, Nick Dompe, John Laush, Ernest VVrable, Kenneth Quinaux, Walter Kaczkowski, James Farkas, Loyal Marshall, Eugene Gascaly, Joe Timko, Jack Ryan, Paul Yeloushan, John Brodka, John Yotka, Joe Marino, and John Selepena. The coach was R. Neil Blair, the manager, Joe Danka. ELECTIIA PageSez ly ELECTIIA Page Seventy-tu ELECTBA Page Sc'L'c'71ly-lhrte ELECTRA l-1...- Page Sevengqour Gosh, how time flies! The time is that which is waited for by everyone,-vacation time. But underlying these emotional outbursts there is always a trace of sadness which is not often communicated to others. Here we find two people who are remembering the good ole day: of the past. Joh n Paul John Paul John: Paul lohnz Paul ll ohn: Paul John: Paul Paul lohn: Paul John: Paul Paul, old boy, I like to sit here and think of the past, don't vou? Yeah. And speaking of the past, remember my old dog, Towser? VVell, I never told this to anyone before, but Ellsworth Caylor and George Meanor tied so many ca-ns to the poor dog's tail that when-r'I'owser would see a can he would just back right up to it. Is that so? I never heard that before. Martha Hluska told me about the time Ruth Sharon drew an onion so real that it brought tears to Miss Laub's eyes. That isn't as bad as when Frances Brown drew a picture of a decayed apple. It was the rottenest thing I ever saw! I-low about in the tenth grade when Vivian Davis was al- ways threatening to jump off buildings and such? VVell, I used to worry about her but now I don't. Wlhy don't you worry now? Because Leap Year is over. Oh-h-h-h, yesllll Gr in the ninth grade when Alice Borland and Verna Berger were making mudheads of our pals, and when you asked Alice why they didn't make heads ofjack Filer and Bill Yates she said that the mud wasn't thick enough. Don't you remember the day Mr. Cotter told us that some people don't care about your English being bad if your Scotch is good! Yeah! I remember. Harry McCal1ister told me that Wlillis Stepp told Mr. Bremer that he couldn't sing in the key of F because he was a G-man. Something of the sort happened when Mr. Bremer asked Frances Lindsay to sing Tree: and she told him she couldn't because the roots stuck in her throat. Hal Ha! That's just as bad as when we saw a poster in the post office that read Murderers Wanted and then Charles Henke and Pete Krager went and applied for the job. Do you know that Jimmy Dalcherone has a wonder watch? A wonder watch? What's that? It's a watch that everytime he looks at it he wonders what time it is. Yeah. I think Ernest Debreceny has one like that too! But I'll never forget the little trouble Adolph Kokoscienski had with Miss Borland. What was that? I don't believe I heard ofit. John: Paul oh n Paul John Paul John Paul John Paul John: Paul John Paul John Paul John Paul John ..l-.- ELECTIIA VVell, as near as I can figure, it went something like this: Miss Borland: Adolph, why have you written only a ten line essay on Milk when all the others have written at least several pages? Adolph: I don't know, but maybe it's 'cause I wrote on Condensed Milk. Ha! ha! ha! I'd like to have been there and heard that one. By the way, did you hear about Fred Reynold's newest invention? Well,it's an alarm clock that emits the delicious odors of frying bacon and fragrant coffee! Elizabeth Gascaly and Emma Danka could both use one like that. Helen Lincoln has already invested in one. Boy, that Pete Novick is one who can make those things, too. Such brilliancy amazes me. Tch! tch! That's not so bad. How about the time Coach told Albert Progar and Paul Yeloushan to wear silk socks in the baseball games, so they could get a lot of runs in a tough game! My, my! That falls in the same class as that time Miss Borland told Ed Goodlow that his and his brother's essays on My Dog were word for word the same. Then Ed pipes up and says, Y'Vell,teacher, we wrote about the same dog. Oh sure! I could expect such a thing from old Goodlow. And did you know Mr. Spalic was an accomplished musician You didn't? You ought to see him fiddle with his whiskers? Oh yeah!!! And do you know what Donnie Hild's dog said when his tail was cut off? He said It won't be long now. I ignore that remark. Susie Sabo told me that the buildings in New York are so high that they have to take them down at night to let the moon go by. Then she sure has a rival. Dan Stauflfer told me that in Chicago the buildings are so high that if a baby fell from the top story he would be an old man by the time he reached the ground. VVhew!! Some height!! W'hy from what I heard the build- ings in San Francisco are so tall that Paul Zilla sunburned his Adam's apple just looking at them. Do you know why they call VVade Brewer banana? Yeah! 'Cause he gives everyone the slip. Oh, I see! Laura Canning doesn't have to wash her hands for her next piano recital because it's on the black keys. Uh Huh! Did you ever hear of the Scotchman who had a picture taken of only one of his twins because they looked alike? No remarks from the gallery, please! When you think of all the fun we had, don't you wish you were back in school? W'el-l-l-l-I-l, sorta! Page Sevengvgive ELECTRAMM.

This is the class predictor broadcasting to you direct from Hollywood in conjunction with the Yute Advertising Agency, owned and operated by Walter' Yute. This agency has charge of advertising for that new picture, The Stage is Set, which is having its world premiere here tonight. Written by those popular collaborators, Miss Ruth Sharon and Miss Ruth Cochran, this picture, more or less patterned after the lives of several members of our class, has been directed by the brilliant Donald Hild, and produced by George Shannon, Hollywood's latest genius. The producer says that this picture is great, not only be- cause of its beautiful scenes planned and arranged by Frances Brown, but also because of its re- markable oamera effects filmed by the chief cameraman, George Fritz. But now 1 see that our radio car is approaching the Oriental theatre. From many blocks away one can see the magnificent display of colored spotlights, which pierce the sky from the vicinity of the theatre. These lights were arranged by Frea' Reynolelx, whose job and hobby is seeking unusual lighting effects. Rounding the corner we are now able to see the new Oriental theatre. This theatre was de- signed and built under the supervision offindrew Rabely, and IS owned by Paul Zilla, who seems to be seeking a monopoly on theatres. The walk is crowded with the usual mass of movie fans, and as Susie Sabo, the young char- acter actress, leaves her car a wave of applause rises. From their shining limousine, .lean Moyes and her husband, a wealthy San Francisco banker ,and Martha flnn Moore, their guest, recently made an heiress by the death of a distant relative, pass into the theatre. Directly behind them comes Evebn Rink, the famous woman surgeon, and the Hollywood reporter, Don Smith. Follow- ing them are the inseparable pals and very famous boxers, Jimmy Dalrherone and Tony Olear- ehiek, with the charming Mrs. Dalcherone, formerly Elizabeth Proha.rka, and the equally charm- ing Emma Norritk, head of a well-known secretarial school. Other celebrities from the field of sport are arriving now-Let's see-there are Betty McClellan, well-known feminine tennis star, Eugene Garsaly and Ed Goodlow, the professional football stars, Joe Timko, a member of a big league baseball team, Lawrence Fetguson, brilliant member of the Davis cupg Helen Forges, owner of the women's basketball team which won last year's national championshipg the care- free polo player, George Drumnz, who raises polo ponies as a hobbyg and Lawrenee Tutak, famous swimming star. The famous comedian with the caustic wit, Ellsworth Caylor, next enters with Jean Lang- Jtaff, owner of a nation-wide string of beauty culture schools. Clarence Ray, president of the N. B. C., arrives with his wife. John Ravera, senator from Pennsylvania, and Paul Ezatolf, gener- al chairman of the Democratic party, who are visiting George Meanor, governor of California, have arrived. The American ambassador to Japan, Fred Borga, now home on a few months' leave, 'passes into the theatre with his friend, Ed Yenoviteh, well-known electrical engineer, and Wade Brewer, brilliant young mathematician famed for his revised text books. Albert Progar, captain of the trans-Atlantic ship, The President, and his attractive young wife stop to chat for a few moments with their friends, Rita Hater, noted authority on etiquette, and Elizabeth Ga:- ealy, who is attracting much attention by her unusual designing of women's hats. Now approach- ing is Williavfz Gille, daring young aviator who recently smashed the trans-Atlantic speed re- cord, and his recently-found friend, Edna Large, a beautiful air hostess on one of the more famous air lines. I see that Jamer Zigarella, the brilliant doctor who is waging war against cancer and the nurses, Alberta Rae and Auanell Seha er, who are aiding him, have taken a ni ht off from the laboratory to attend this opening. T e well-known G-man, Anthony Pajerrki, fiom the F. B. I. is here-let's hope it's not on business. Two young ladies who were very instrumental in the production of this movie are approaching now. They are Mary Valance, head of the make-up department ofthe Studio, and Marg' Oncyfer, who has designed the costumes worn in this picture. Page Seventy-nine ELECTRA -li- Doctor Douglas Trew, the archaeologist who has just returned from Mexico, and Frances Trempus, editor of the most enterprising newspaper in the United States, hurry past. They are followed closely by Anna Mae Wineherg, the most talked-of poet of today, and her sister, Jane Wineherg, famous as a concert violinist. That seems to be about all of the celebrities who are arriving, and taking the portable mike with me, I'll pass into the theatre. In the lobby one cannot help noticing the beautiful murals painted by the young artist, John Brodlza, and the statue done by the brilliant sculptor, Mary Johnston. Incidentally, this theatre has been decorated by Betty Mafzrhall, well known for her treatment of modern designs, and is done in a unique style. As I pass into the theatre I see that the lights are dimmed. From our glass broadcasting booth I will be able to see the picture but the dialogue will not be heard through the sound proof walls. The picture is now starting but rather than describe it to you, since this is somewhat of a class reunion, I have been asked to tell where other former members of our class are. In Bermuda, at the moment, are Zoe Zimrnerly and her husband of three weeks, enjoying their honeymoon. In Buenos Aires are Edna llIcDowell and her husband,aSpanish ranch-owner. Alma Stepp and Allice Mudlo are traveling about the country instructing classes in debating. Paul Trohiani has recently been elected president of Yale University. Dan Stnaifer has become a successful automobile manufacturer. Two of our classmates have settled in Florida. Alive Strama, in Miami, has gained a reputation as a woman photographer and John Zolnierezyk, a very successful truck farmer. Paul Yelourlzan is chief sur eon at one of Chicago's greatest hos- pitals. Nick Vuelzinich is the proud owner of a silver fox arm, and perhaps has raised that fur, which you, madam, are wearing on your shoulder. Russell Zalepa is chief sound effect man of N. B. C. and, what's more, he's getting paid for it. Nellie Staehura now holds the title of the fastest typist in the country. Ann Kostie has turned partially domestic on us and has built for herself a reputation as being a great authority on food, while Wilma Dzuree has become a die- tician telling the women how to loose excess poundage. Phzton Levhanieh is now a Latin professor at Harvard, Vincent Parise is the owner ofa nation-wide bus route and Louise Thielis his personal secretary. John Martin must go in for dairies for he owns a full dozen of them. In a small, quiet Vermont town you can find Thomar Nypaver, a minister, and Stella Smith, a commercial teacher who is attracting attention to her scientific method of teaching. In New York, many of our number are found. Helen Siegfried is a buyer for a large and exclusive dress shop, and Helen Garda is a dress model at the same shop. The pretty face of Helen Lincoln may be seen on the corner of the latest magazine, peeping from beneath the latest hat, Virginia Brinton with her sophisticated air can be seen in many advertisements, for she too is a model. Ida DeSanti.s beautiful smile is seen in many tooth paste advertisements and Ruth Bigleyiv expressive an'd beautiful hands are seen laden with expensive jewels, in almost every jewelry advertlisenfcent. Pete Novick is making a place for himself as an optometrist, and Sterling Norrir as a an er. In Pittsburgh, Mildred Moore is chieflibrarian of the Carnegie Library, Pete Krager issu- perintendent of the Carnegie Steel Mill, and Mildred Loulhan is secretary to the president of that corporation. Alice Borland, also in Pittsburgh, is head of a large advertising agency with Johanna Owcar as her secretary. Mary Franca.: is the dean of women at Carnegie Tech, and in the same college Virginia Danovieh is the professor of French and Dorothy Fiering is head of the psychology department. In Chicago, Bill Cumming is a wealthy mortician, Michael Evaneo, an executive for the Standard Oil Company, and Mike Cerniek, a well-known broker. . Again on the fem-inine side,Rita Ifugal and Marie Huxsar are the owners of a large tea room in Washington, D. C., Eleanor Carter 1S in Paris buying gowns for her new gown shop in Miami. I Wending his way to a position of great standing is Adolph Kokorcenski, a lawyer at Wash- ington, D. C. Ernest Dehreeeny sits behind a mahogany desk in a brokerage oiiide in San Fran- cisco, and two blocks down the street Lawrence Batlrell will be glad to drill or pull your teeth- Page Eighty .l........ ELECTIIA by appointment. In Texas, George Taylor is the owner of a large cattle ranch, and, hoping to Philadelphia, one finds Lloyd Loeleernzan who specializes in landscaping your property. Not all of the girls have taken up careers, however. Emma Danlza is just setting sail for Europe on her honeymoon, Marietta Hall and Edith Federkeil have married twin brothers, one a broker and the other a manufacturer. Erma Hodel has married a titled Englishman, Gaynelle Kelly is the wife of an executive of the National Biscuit Company, and Vivian Davis, the wife of the most recent matinee idol of Broadway. Dorothy Darrell, Betty Brown, and Verna Berger have just announced their engagements but I can't find out to whom. Now returning to the picture The Stage Is Set. The last scene is being flashed on the screen. The scene is a night club and displays the most brilliant stars ever seen. The leading lady, Jean Maginn, is holding the hand of her leading ma-n, Robert Taylor. On the ballroom floor the dan-pe team of Leo Kratz and Lois MeKrell have finished their act. Betty Ann Muder is now performing her dancing tricks on the illuminated trapeze. We must sign off soon, folks, so I'll just gead off those who will appear in the scene. There is Belle Shoop who will present several of the mono- logues which have made her famous, Harold Kennedy will croon a new love song written by Laura Canning, Frances Lindsay, the famous opera star, will go lowbrow and sing Minnie the Moocherg Nick Carassa will display his ability at the keyboard of his accordion, William Green- wald will give one of his dead-pan-comedian acts, followed by Mariha Hluslea and her ballet troupe. And last but not least, will be the famous trio of .lack Filer at the drums, William Yates at his clarinet, and Willi.r Stepp at the trumpet, led by Bah Harris, famous orchestra leader.
