SPORTS ROUNDUP Over the season Spring- dale won 17 games and lost 6. We lost to New Kensing- ton, Arnold, Verona, Leech- burg, Freeport, and Leech- burg again in the playoffs. The majority of the students at Springdale were suprised an very much sarished this year with the team and Coach DeVenzio. T h e Orange and Black went on the offensive this year, scor- ing 1064- points to only 932 - points for last year by the champs. This means an average of 46.3 points per game was established. Yet, the thought that ICSIS on everybody's mind is the two points that Leechburg slipped over on us. Coach DeVenzio has made a great hit with the students his first year here and great things are expected of him and his team at Springdale High School.

At home that night the Jun- ior Prom Committee held a Lolly-Pop Dance. The gym was gay with balloons and rib- bons. Little Lulu was found to be Rose Minyon in curls and pantalettes. Her mother was none other than the digni- fied Mr. Charles DeVenzio! January 23, 1949. Mr. Zott began showing movies at lunch- time. For the price of a nickel, we saw such pictures as Drums Along the Mohawk and The Lost Jungle. Thrillers all. January 25, 1949. The last day of the first semester had arrived. Now we had only to wait to see those grades on our reports. Our work was done. Our yearbook was supposed to be sent to the printer but we just couldn t make the days long DANCE BAND .

Everyone turned out for the spectacular game with Leechburg. Reverend Rose said he stood in the waste basket to see. This was one of our biggest games and we took it 46-42. February 8, 1949. Sad to say we lost a game to Freeport by one basket, 38-40. In assembly 'the Sports men's Club presented movies about fishing and con- servation. February 9, 1949. The student Council launched its magazine sales campaign. Mr. Wallace of Curtis Publishing Company explained the methods of selling and the profits 'to be gained. Charles Roche urged the students to cooperate and to sell as many sub- scriptions as possible to get money for water coolers. February 14, 1949. St. Valentine's Day was cele- brated by the seniors. Everyone gave Mr. Zott a notebook in remembrance of the day. February 17, 1949. 12-C Girls cheered the Sober- ettes for 'their third straight win. February 18, 1949. West Deer was defeated by a narrow margin 48-47. February 21, 1949. Three Gentlemen from West Pointu visited us at lunch time. C. Pierce, Yost, F. Mikolas, and A. Shaw sang Cool, Clear, Water to make us all thirsty and to pep us up to sell maga- zines for those water coolers. February 22, 19-l9. The English classes saw Great Expectations. February 25, 19-l-9. We had such beautiful and graceful cheerleaders at our pep meeting. Strange to say that the orange and black uniforms would not quite meet. And the pink cheeks were topped by 'the most unusual bonnets and caps. Alasl we were afraid someone would get hurt as they fell so hard. We were all highly entertained by James Prasnikar, Jack Linder- man, Charles Spix, and the other boys. This was the night for 'the final play-off for the sec- tion title at New Kensington. All during the first half Springdale was in the lead, but during the second half Leechburg gradually edged up with some good shots at the basket until we lost by two points-45-47. It was a sad loss for us but Leechburg was 'thrilled.
