' Q Almost all of us enjoyed our freshman year for we met so many new people. The students of Harwick, Acmetonia, Cheswick, and the Catholic Schools left Lheir respective schools and joined the regular Springdale students to. form the present class. We did enjoy school: but when the big snow kept us in for two Llays, we all cheered. Three happy events occurred in the spring of our freshman year. The first was on April twentieth when we held our Freshman dance in the high school gymnasium. The second event was the election of Rose Roda, Ruth Longdon, loan Sleppy, and Margaret Phillips to attend the May Queen on May Day. The third event was the celebration of V-E Day for that was one of the great events of our lives. We were so thankful that the war in Europe was over and that the war in japan was drawing to a close. Our Freshman year was a happy year. How meekly we walked to the high school the next fall! But we soon became at home and acted our normal noisy selves. We had several new and popular teachers, including Miss Vellis, Miss Daryman, and Mr. Bowers. We made many new friends among the juniors and seniors. We missed the weekl . . . Y assemblies that we had had ln ninth grade. Many of our fellow classmen participated in football and helped to make our anticipated victories a reality. But Steve Matthews was our pride and joy for he was a regular player on the basketball team. We elected Richard Allias, Ruth Longdon, and Ruth Longhenry as our class officers that year. After a wonderful vacation, we came back to school to a football team who brought the honor of the W. P. I. A. L. Class A Championship to the school. Wie were all very proud of Turka, Gaskin, Bonazza, Quarles, Watts, Kristoff, Spix, Nypaver, Berman, Allias, Tassotti, Harvey, Mosser, Hartz, Jacques, Lincoln, Olearchick, and Shoskin, who were juniors on the squad. -john Nypaver became a star overnight when Gabriel, Blow Your Horn was acted at School Street School Auditorium. Everyone said that it was one of the most humorous plays that our school has produced. The juniors were also well-represented on the basketball team. Marsh, Durnovich, Fajbik, Strawoet, Lincoln, Matthews, and Hartz played. Richard Allias, Clyde McGeary, and .john Nypaver were elected as our officers of that year. Barbara Smalara was elected as our May Queen, and for her court we chose Iileanore Arch, Ruth Longdon, Delores -jursa, and Ann Page. We don't mean to brag, but we don't think there could have been a nicer prom than ours. Thanks to the prom connnittee. On September 2, IQ47, we enrolled as seniors. VVe felt very important when the school photographer came to take senior pictures. Almost everyone's were powerful, Our football team had a good season with seven wins and three losses. The team's seniors were all awarded jackets by the Booster's Club with their own emblem on the back. The band and majorettes really cut a neat pattern marching up and down the field at half time. Clyde Mcfieary, .joe Valla and Marilyn Rengers were elected as our officers. Not allowing football to get the upper hand, Springdale's basketball team won the Section 2 Championship with a great season. The juniors gave us a very nice senior prom. They have our thanks. liveryone had fun as always when we went to Kennywood. The Coaster, Loop-O-Plane, and the Old Mill were regulars with the students. All good things, including high school, must come to an end. As we all walk up the aisle to receive our diplomas, we realize that these have been the best years of our lives.

NATION WIDE TOUR 1958 We, the roving reporters, made a nation-wide tour to satisfy our curiosity concerning the graduates of the class of 1948 of Springdale High School. Seeing us off at the station was Miss Sober, who is still the faithful manager of the ELECTRA at the high school and doing a good job. Our first stop was at Harrisburg where we visited our governor, Barney Spix, and his personal aides, Bob Rog- erson and Bob Byers. After a dinner at Bernie Bermarfs Cafe, we listened to the singing of the blues by none other than Peggy Lloyd. We left for Chesapeake Bay where we watched the great fisherman, Bob Rufner, who is still searching for pearls. At Washington, D. C., we attended a Senate investiga- tion of Elmer Charles's new invention. His opponent, Bill Camilli, insists that he is the true inventor. We left them in a riot with the District Attorney, Everett Sanders, opening the case for the state. In the small town of Roanoke, Virginia, we went to see the newly settled minister, Reverend William Harvey, who was performing a life-long ceremony for Violet Ol- swezsky and Darrell Hockenberry. After their photog- rapher, Ray justham, promised us a wedding picture, we boarded another train and were off for the Blue Ridge Mountains. Woe are wel Our train broke down and while our repairman, john Olearchick, worked on repairs, we wandered around the mountain trails where we heard the giggle, a familiar one too, of Flossie Riegler. By 2:30 p. m. our train pulled into Chattanooga where we were serenaded by jim Rengers, the singer, and Eddie Mikolas with his accordion. They directed us to a hotel where we were to spend the evening, much to our sur- prise, we found the manager to be Bill Mosser. Early the next morning we left for New Orleans. Here we listened to the Mexican Trio composed of Honey Marsh, Pudge Strawoet, and joe Cortese. Later in the day we took a cruise in the Gulf of Mexico and can you guess who the captain of the ship was - Henry Ta- bish. Among the celebrities aboard were Eileen and Kathleen Loehrane, Hollywood's new twin discovery. After our cruise, we sailed up the Mississippi to Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and enjoyed a very sociable time with the Arkansas Travelers, George Matisko, joe Micale, Helen Miller, and Anna Ostanoski. Taking our leave from Pine Bluff, we found ourselves in a magnificent ranch house in Pecos, Texas, owned by our old friends, john Durnovich and jim Hartz. From there we traveled farther westward to Phoenix, Arizona, and visited one of its famous health resorts headed by Dr. Richard Allias and his assistant nurse, Helen Lawrence. Much to our surprise, we found john Nypaver convalescing from overwork there: . Our journey to California was most interesting .for here we found many friends. Among them were Marilyn Rengers and Dick Krugle, highlights, now, in the society page in Hollywood. We also found Delores Jursa in one of the swimming contests. You should see her high divell Before leaving California, we had to visit the Bridal Veil waterfalls at Yosemite National Park. Who should greet us but the caretaker, Jesse Loboda. The zoo there is managed by Lester Cloutman who is assisted by Cali- fornia's head dietician, Mary Kubaska. l n At Portland, Oregon, we visited the fashionable girls' school, Beauties don't growg we make them headed by Lorraine Hardie. The dean of English there is Irene Berezny. Two of their most outstanding students are june Connor and Betty Foster. ' After abandoning the train for a 1958 Buick, we were doing 65 miles on a lonely Washington Street when we were stopped by a policeman, none other than Ott Quarles. n We visited a large canning industry in Seattle, Wash- ington, and were astonished to see Anna Marie Firitor as chief manager. Warren Goodwin walked in carrying in a new side-line of products. At Boise, Idaho, we remembered Cowboy Fuhrman's invitation to visit his horse ranch, and so we spent an evening there. The next day a telephone call was made by jim Mc- Coy who invited us to his swanky motion picture palace. .Who should we come upon but the playboy, Leonarcl jacques. After having a pleasant visit, his chauffeur, jerry Simons, drove us to the station where we spied Ralph Bonazza and Ed Kaezor, two hobos trying to hop a train. At the station we boarded a train arid Ed Fajbik, the porter, showed us to our berths. 'We reached Salt Lake City at approximately 2 p. m. After unpacking our bags at the hotel, we went to the taxi stand where Betty Tarasi, the driver, drove us to the circus. We reached there just in time to see the performer, Nettie Cutrara, and her partner, Dora Rainaldi, doing a rope trick. Our guide, jack Marsh, then took us to the4Great Salt Lake where we found Bob Mickelic trying to find a salt mine. He may find itg who knows? Also there were Marge Phillips and Loretta Romano trying to get a sun-tan. Continuing from Salt Lake City we motored through Colorado but didn't stop for we had visited a national park. Right on Colorado's border, though, we were asked by jim Scott to buy some souvenirs of that state. Arriving in Wichita, Kansas, we were given the key to that city by its first woman mayor, Alberta Pivik, and her two most important aides, Mary Yelich and Mildred Menlo. It- was quite a surprise, but a nice one-seeing an old gang hold together that way. Crossing into Tulsa, Oklahoma, we were met by that great oil magnate, Thomas Mitchell. He's still working on mathg this time in millions of dollars. In Joplin, Missouri, we were told to visit the state's best piano player, Dan Tassotti. When we asked him how he decided on that career, he replied If that's what got Truman the Presidency, why shouldn't I make it, too? From Missouri we drifted into Iowa, the corn state, and believe it or not, Eddie Abel is raising corn. Also, at Des Moines, Iowa, we were summoned to attend a very important meeting. The subject of dis- cussion was You and Your Education. The main speaker was Ruth Longdon. She now has a doctor's degree and is lecturing to many hopefuls. Among them are Doris Smyers and Tillie Leher. In Minnesota we saw the wheat mills. The owner and main production manager was Donald Sutty. His main salesman for furthering the use of bread was jane Ray. They gave us their best regards and with these we continued on into Wisconsin. Almost every billboard we passed featured George Grinder's and Ray Butcher's pictures. They advertised a white as milk smile, cream complexion, and hair the color of corn silk. Speaking of billboards, we were very much delighted to see that Fran Pollino, Theresa Thiel, and Rose Roda are tpoyer girls advertising the effect Sheen shampoo has Oil 3lI'. Reaching the Great Lakes, we decided to visit one of the beautiful Show Boat productions. Evelyn Seharns and Ann Page, noted for their ability as hostesses, helped to make us comfortable. They raved about the great Met soprano, and when they introduced us, the great turned out to be Betty Lou Rosskamp. Her main body guard turned out to be Mike Cariss. Coming down Lake Michigan, we stopped at Grand Rapids, Michigan. There we found Mary Castelli work- ing hard at being a private secretary. In the same city we bought some costume jewelry from a cute little gift shop managed by joy Lasher. We couldn't leave the Central States without visiting Chicago. And there we were. We could rename this Little Springdale. In charge of the stock market there is joe Tabacek. Wanting to purchase some flowers for Donna McCutcheon, who is in the hospital, we visited the florist shop operated by Edna Mae Marlowe and Marge Ravera. We haven't mentioned religion, but encounter- ing Emily Weber and Aerial Toth, we weren't surprised to find out they were doing missionary work in the slums. linfoying excitement, too, we rtished to a fire only to fiml llirli Nixon holding one emi of a hose. ..S'I1'1'4' Malllirn' invited us to Notre Dame. .Is you know. he is the coach of basketball there. His very tapable assistant is joe Vafla. 4 IVliile there, we suggested we go to see Holi Lincoln at Michigan University. He still maintains the record of being an All-Star. The sponsor of the cheerleaders there is Vw' Piadelli who still has her old pep aml vitality. Andy Krisfojl is there, too, teaching sociology, govern- ment, aml business economics. In Detroit, Michigan, we had a flat and conven- iently so, for Louif' Turka gave us a braml new tire. llerman Yost was working there, also, auctioning off used cars. We crossed Lake I-Irie to go into Ohio. Doris Madera owned a tourist camp there. WVC stopped off in Youngs- town, Ohio, to say hello to Vickie Iiurlz, who returned to her old Alma Mater. lfrom Youngstown we went to Cleveland. There in a large tomern, Ilflwri Zelenah is working a stenotype machine while Ray Walls does the dictating. One of the typists there is Cfara Mae Tlmnias. I Virginia Vogel is proprietor of a confectionary store in Buffalo, New York. Wvhen we went into the First National Bank to get,.a traveler's check, who should give it to us but Fuzzy Pizoli. The president of the bank is john Lodi. . As we wanted to see some of our natural resources in the New England States, we explored a marble quarry directed by George Shoskin. On one of' the hillsides of Concord, New Hampshire, we discovered Clyrle' Mclleary painting one of the most beautiful landscape forms. Dolores Caskin, noted for her art, receives great praise.

Marching Band After all the summer parades the marching band started their school activities by pepping the gang up at pep meetings. We'll always re- member the piano keyboard and the boogie-Woogie step that was shown at the Springdale and All-Star football games. In September the officers were chosen' President - RAY JUSTHAM Secretary - BETTY ANN BOSWELL Vice-President - BILL SIMBACK Treasurer - JOAN SLEPPY Drill Sergeant.: - WARREN GOODWIN and RAY JUSTHAM The Springdale band marched at such parades as the Uncon- quered, Joe Page Celebration, Hallowe'en, and Armistice Day. The brass sextet, woodwind quintet, and full band played for such organizations as the P. T. A., the Women's Club, the Kiwanis, and for our school assemblies. Again the Springdale band was found on the football field at the combined drill festival at Ken High Stadium. ' Warren Goodwin represented our band at Southwestern and All- State Band, and Marilyn Hurst was the representative at Southwestern Band and Orchestra. . Towards the end of the year the combined band concerts, drill con- tests, and Spring Festival were held. The band entered the State Contest. Finally the marching band played for our Commencement. 44 r 'wi 'vw -4' if 5 2 f Q ci Y I 757' if 'L- ' ' LLL K 5.4 .-4-n-H . 6 ' U '11 Dance Band r I I Q Saws - W. Goodwin, W. Harvey, j. Mitchell.

Each year the Stall has tried to publish a better yearbook. It is the earnest wish that this l948 ELLQTRA may be worthy of the approval ol the students and teachers and that it may compare favorably with the previous ELr1CTRAs. At the beginning of the year a temporary staff was appointed to publish the yearbook. Virginia Vogel and Ruth Longdon were to work as eo-editors, but as neither had sufficient time to spend on the work, Helen Linkowski and Barbara Smalara were selected to hll these posi- tions. Among those students who devoted much time were: John Lodi, Treasurer, Rosa Roda, Eleanore Arch, joan Sleppy, Margaret Phillips, Ethel Mae Heakins, jane Ray, Catherine Callahan, Anna Marie Fintor, Donald Sutty, Ruth Longhenry, Dick Krugle, Ruth Longdon, and Clyde McGeary. Three juniors, Barbara Hutzler, Helen Bang, and Melbajean Hogan, helped with the junior section. The Staff has appreciated the help of many others. 48 3 fab. ? 3 ev 7 I. w 11' X4 s J .if .

Under the able leadership of livelyn Scharns, Presidentg Delores Lucas, Vice-President, Virginia Vogel, Secretary: Betty Ann Boswell, Treasurer, and Mrs. Isabelle Hendrickson, Sponsor, the club has proved itself a success. Throughout the year on every other Thursday, a meeting is held to discuss the business and the activities of the club. january 2 was a big day for the girls because it was the date of the annual holiday dance The Snowball. Happy couples danced to heavenly music and enjoyed the dance very much. Before the Christmas vacation the traditional tree was trimmed for the downstairs., hall to add to the Yuletide spirit. At the close of the basketball season a party was held to honor our team. Two swims were held at the Tarentum Y. M. C. A. Talks which were given by the local ministers to the members oi the club and their guests. Reverend Rose was asked to speak to the entire assembly on Friday, the thirteenth of February. He presented a fine address on Dating which was appreciated by all. EVELYN St:HARNs. 52 t uh-lleh Cluh lfyr ro lllgllf, llori' I -- ll. llllIlll'l', ll. lt'll'llZlli, KZ, flllNl'Y, S.

Latin Club The Latin Club, under the capable leadership of Mrs. Daum, was organized for the purpose of developing among the students a finer appreciation of the Latin language. By seeing how closely Latin and English are connected, and by seeing how our civilization has borrowed from the past, students are better able to understand the present conditions and to promote better conditions in the future. Cosmites Latini, the name of the club, elected Charles Roche, Richard Pizzedaz, Helen Bang, and Thomas Wayner, for its oflicers and a fine constitution was drawn up. Songs and plays entertain the members at the monthly meetings. A trip to the Buhl Planetarium to see the projects of the club on display included the Heinz Chapel, the B'nai Israel Synagogue, St. Paul's Cathedral, and the Mellon Church. They held a delightful party and conducted an interesting Auction Sale. Left to Right, Row I - A. Eframo, L. Hendler, G. McCracken, M. Linkowski, V. Kocur, S. Shoop, H. Bang, F. Schultz, I.

Mfith the guidance of our very worthy President, Richard Allias, we accomplished a great deal for the school. ' On October 24 we had our first paper drive from which we received enough money to buy our three coaches, Mr. Rometo, Mr. Zott, and Mr. XVagner, and our team trainer, Mr. Moorhead, football jackets. Our annual dance was not held because of the All-Star game at Tarentum. Many of our members participated in this game. The Seniors of the Varsity Club received jackets from the Boosters Club so we decided to buy emblems for the jackets. The emblems were made of felt and had Reddy Kilowatt riding a bolt of lightening. The football from the Swissvale game was given away and from the dona- tions that we received, we paid for the emblems. At our annual election we elected officers for the coming year. Those elected were: President, Edward Baker, Vicealjresident, Holdridge Chandler, Secretary- Treasurer, Frank Armstrong. These ofhcers will serve for the following year. BILL HARVLLX'. 58 The Cheerleaders The El.r1c:'mA would not be complete without an article about the Cheer- leaders. The cheerleaders have achieved their purpose of keeping up the morale of the teams and the students very well. There are five senior cheerleaders leaving us this year, but there are well-experienced sophomore and junior cheerleaders to take their place. The five senior cheerleaders are: Alvera Pradelli, president: Flossie Riegler, secretary: Lorraine Haedic, Anne Bonazza, and Marge Phillips. Shirley Bonzani, a junior, was elected vice-president. She will be here next year to keep the squad going. You can bet your life she'll do a wonderful job. The cheerleaders have had a joyous year together. They have supported the teams splendidly, and we hope they'll keep up the good work. The cheerleaders are just as important as any other of the organizations in the high school. They have done their best to help the school and will con- tinue doing their best next year with Shirley Bonzani pushing and with the whole squad co-operating. Good luck and keep up the good work, girls. 59 I-eff 1f0 Viglllf, Row I - O. Quarles, A. Kozma, B. Spix, A, Kristoff, R. XVatts, B. Harvev, R. Bonazza, B. Berman, F. Petrusik, L. Fike, If.

Football Alter training at West Liberty for two weeks, our boys opened their football campaign on September 6 with East Deer by a 31-0 win. Practically all the boys saw action, On the' following Thursday night our Orange and Black boys played one of their best and hardest games against St. George. The excellent block- ing paved the way for a 25-0 victory for our Power City Boys. On the night of September I9 at the packed Dreshar Stadium, the fans witnsssed one of the most thrilling and spectacular games of the year. The Spring- dale eleven, trailing by 20 points in the third quarter, pushed and battered a much heavier and a more experi- enced Tarentum team all over the gridiron. Scoring l9 points in the third and fourth quarters, the Rometo coached lads dominated the play. The tired and bat- tered Tarentum Red Cats were lucky to eke out a 20-19 win. Sickness and failure to rebound were instrumental in Shaler's 19-6 victory over the Orange and Black. Both Shaler and Tarentum were undefeated, but Shaler par- 60 lm!! lo Righl, Ron' I - Conley, F..

Petarra s' ' ' ' ' This xt-ar's basketball team is outstanding in the his- lorv of H. S. The record of eighteen games won com- pared ot five games lost speaks for itself. In all games lost the last lt-w minutes determined the winner. Pos- sibly the llltbsl thrilling game ol the season was played at New Kensington, when the winner was determined in the serond extra period by the sudden death rule. There were many outstanding features about the leam's playing. They posted a winning streak of thirteen straight games, setting a record in Springdale. Only once during the season was a player lost on personal fouls and that happened in the last minute. In nearly every game we shot more fouls that our opponents, even though our team was shorter. The team made up for its lark of height by excellent team work and good Condition, Our tio-Captains, Bob I.int'oln and Steve Matthews, had a lot to do with that. Steie led the scoring for the season. Bob led in the best foul percentage. Durnie made the most fouls, jim and Ptldgy featured by their heavy work around the boards. Mr. Herbert Ripper, the coach, was proud ol' the accomplishments of the team and was able to celebrate his twentieth season with a seztional winner. 64 USQIIIS, Oppmzrrnls H7011 39 XVest Deer . ll 32 . .

Cn-Captain Bob was a regular on the team for the past two years. Always an excellent team- worker, he never failed to feed his teammate in a bet- ter position to score. Al- though not tall as basketball players go, his best asset was getting the ball off both boards nad shooting fouls. When the going was tough- est. Bob steadied the team and could be counted on to come through in a pinch. His field goal, tying up the game on Ken High's floor will not soon be forgotten. His shoes will be hard to hll. STEVE MATTHEWS Cn-Captain Steve played three years as a regular for S. H. S. Among his many achievements we find Steve as the best foul shooter, when as a Sopho- more he scored 26 points against Tarentmn. He scored 20 points in ISW minutes against a strong West View team and in the sectional playoff against Brentwood he played one of his best games by scoring I6 points besides playing a line floor game. Steve and Bob gave the team hne leadership. The Champions JOHN DURNAVICH Durnie came into his own this season. The speed he flashed cutting into the bas- ket thrilled the crowd many times. Sure-handed, Durnie seldom lost the ball. An- other good foul shooter his 9 for 9 set a mark for future stars to shoot for. You could depend on Dttrnie, when the other players let down, a little. Few players could master the fundamentals as Durnie did. May S. H.. S. have more like him. JAMES HARTZ Without Hartz to get the ball and feed the team our season would have been a lean one. His accurate shoot- ing from the floor was the downfall of Leechburg in a bitter game that was the turning point of the season. His good-naturedness and willingness to sacrifice for the good of his teammates made Jim a popular mem- ber on our championship team. EUGENE STR.-XYVOET l'udgy despite his lack of stature, played a fine game on a guard position. He made up for lack of height by his aggressiveness and coolness in a pinch. His drives through the defense with his under the basket shot gave the fans many a thrill. He kept up the tra- dition of the Strawoet fam- ily on Springdale High School. ALEX KOZMA Alex is best known in foot- ball, but his hustle and ag- gressiveness are qualities that are needed for a winning squad. These qualities were soon apparent in basketball too. Although his height is a handicap, he gave his xerybest to the team. JACK MARSH Jack was the handyman of the club as he fitted in well as either guard or forward. As this was his second year on the team his experience made him valuable to put in to rest a teammate. His cooperation was a great help to the team. JOHN COOK John is the only left- handed player on the squad. Since he is one of the few rangy boys, next year's team should have the advantage of his height and experi- ence. BARRY RIPPER Barry has the requisites of a good player. Since he is able to shoot and pass with either hand, he should with hard work and experience make a fine player next year. BOBBY MICHAEL Bobby has plenty of speed, in spite of the fact that he is not as tall as some of the others. Every time he en- tered the game he got his share of points. No doubt he'll see plenty of action next year. DONALD PETARRA AND DONALD HALL The two Dons got as big a kick from being managers of our team as some of the boys did playing. Assigned the detail work and care of equipment, they did a fine job. ,t .6 'QQ L...l. lunior Varsity Springdale 28 West Deer Springdale 29 Oakinont Sprnigdale 40 East Iicer Springdale H5 Arnold Springdale 29 All-Stars .
