YEAIQ The large increase in the number of students in all the classes caused an increase in the number of faculty members for the year 1931-1932. The new teachers are Nlisses Browne, Nlorrissey, and Coulter, and Nlessrs. Downie and Haseltine. The most notable change in the school this year was the absence of the Freshman class from the High School building. Due to the increased numbers in the enrollment, it was found necessary to transfer the Freshmen to the Dickson School where they carried on their own activities. Among their first year accomplishments were a gym exhibition and an operetta. The teachers in charge of the first year students are 1VIisses blahnig, Rogers, Connor, Coulter, lVIor1'issey, Jones, and Jacobs, and Nlr. Durstine. Another change was the decided improvement in the assembly programs. A health play, Swiss Thespian sketches, special speakers, and interesting programs spon- sored by the Valistic were instrumental in creating diversion from the regular routine of everyday school life. Nlr. Kelso is always working to maintain continually higher standards. VVith careful attention to discipline and the serious side of school life, he instils into the students a Willingness to follow those habits that make each student a better character. Mr. Baily is one of the most popular members of the faculty. He is admired and respected by all the students and it would be impossible to find an enemy of his among them. Mr. Douglas has been connected with Swissvale Schools for only three years. He has risen from a teacher in the High School to position to principal of the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth grades at Dickson and in that short time has acquired hosts of friends and much recognition. r Z7 v i 1 1 1 DT 9Qu--.,-- .c..a.sH- .. ts--.H. .-.J 1131 F .-.

This efirst scene ends, a pronounced success. 1Ylll'fllll.Y.Y107l The curtains part for the second scene, in which the actors are called Sophomores . Many in the cast begin to understudy leading roles in different activities. Athletics, the Op- eretta, and the Sophomore Party occupy center stage this time. I7lfl'7'N1fJ.Yi'07l At the beginning of this scene we see juniors , many of whom are ready to step into leading roles. Some are given chances to display their dramatic ability in the Valistic Play, others in the Operetta, and still more in the junior Class Play. Members of both sexes excel in the field of athletics. , Next comes the highlight of the scene, the junior Prom. Due to the efforts of a newly ac- quired prompter, Miss Lucille Long, and the committees, this affair turned out to be a big success. NVhile reviewing it, one imagines himself in the midst of a beautiful, old-fashioned rose garden. This scene ends with the names of many of the characters in bright lights , and with great expectations for the next and Final scene. ' Intermission Last curtain-the act draws to an end--the actors, as Seniors , appear for the last time. This scene is full of action. The first for and by the Seniors event is the Kid Party where everyone forgets his dignity for just a few short hours. Again we see dramatic ability, this time that of real professionals, in the Senior Class Play. We know that the end is close at hand when we view Senior Assembly, Baccalaureate, and Class Night. The actors make their final bow at Commencement with the hope that they have pleased both their directors and their audience, and have given encouragement to' actors who will follow in their footsteps. As the curtain falls there his a trace of sadness irt the counten- ances of the cast, which disappears when they realize that, although they are finishing one act, they are about to begin an entirely new one.

SENIDIQ B95 ' The present Senior B Class, since mid-year graduations have been discontinued, are considered a part of the class of 1933 and will graduate with this group next June. The larger part of the mid-year graduating groups return to High School for an extra semester and take post-graduate work rather than waste a half-year in inactivity. The thirty-one students who make up the Senior B class are truly representative. Three of the varsity basketball team-Thomas Lucas, James Casillo, and Charles Carlson-are members of this mid-year section. Bernard lVIcNish, James Casillo, Charles Carlson, Orland Grosskopf, and Norman Lane have proved themselves on the gridiron. Eleanor Thieman represented this group in last year's Junior Play, lVIary Astalos was in the Senior Play this year. Nlary VVagoner is on the Valistic Staff.

Curl11i11! CllI'f0iII.l Third srene, vurt11in. The curtain has just been called and the steady mumble of the voices of the audience are hushed as the lights begin to dim and the curtains part. In our portrayal of the third scene in this act of Life , the greatest of all dramas, we find that Fate has been most kind in giving us such wealth of material from which to make the selections of directors and cast for our performance. Our heroes and heroines, of Whom there are many, are deserving of every praise and honor which your humble scribe can bestow upon them. Nor can there be a dis- senting vote as to their ability to play important and supporting roles in scholastic and extra-curricular endeavors. So far, our troup has received great ovations from the large audience. The stu- dents have been applauded for their outstanding work in many branches. They have been giving innumerable encores and have appeared for many curtain calls. Among our most outstanding settings is the Junior Prom, an affair of frivolity and merry-making. The members of the class were in their L'Seventh Heaven when the orchestra began to play the Welcoming waltz. Next to the Prom comes our class play in which some of our group proved to be of a versatile nature. We have been Well represented in sports along with other lines of activities. Honor athletes from the Junior class are: Ross Emriclc, Earl Walte1's, VVilliam Rosenbloom, John Pcholinski, Edward Loughran, Joseph Catone, and Jerry llflatelan. As the scene nears the end, the players become tired but nevertheless they are sorry that the curtain must soon drop. The last lines soon will be spokeng the manager signals his assistant to draw the curtains and switch on the lights. The house lights go up and the stage-set is hidden from the view of the appreciative audience. Q Qi'Q'1-Feat.. .

Y1 JOSEPH McCLosKEY BASIL LEE ANNA FRANK RAY Noxpsrkosi Prcxidcnt Vin' Prnidvnt Scrrctary Trmsurrr SCDHUMCIQES Lil-:e the spectators of old Greece, who sat at the foot of the Acropolis, Swissvale High has watched the part which the Sophomores have played in the drama of school life. i The Pericles of this class, Joseph lVIcCloskey, has played the part of the hero quite seriously. Among the thespians which the Sophomore class has produced are' Nlarjorie Craig, Louise Pulsinelli, and Helen Spisak, who acted in Hero by the Hour. The brightest spotlight of the year was turned on the Sophomore party, De- cember 4, 1931, Where unexpected talent featured the program. Here Isabelle Tomlin- son's dancing and Blanche Nied's singing were outstanding. In the NIellerdrammer , several modest individuals including Don Finan, Nlargaret Squiland, Joseph Dunn, and Tony Santella stepped to the front of the stage. Our class has also a poet laureate, Charlotte Gailey, ready to rhyme words for almost any occasion. , . , . . f In room 25 there is a painting of lNaples, Italy, and in room .4 'err is one 0 Bremen, Germany, by Siegfried Schwarzbach. . On the Valistic staff are three Sophomores: Guy Halferty, Joe N' Susan Soyalc. The Sophomore stage holds promising athletes, Bob Emrick taking receiving both basketball and football letters. Vincent Boyle and Sydney Aurel. . attained fame in the field of football. The UB squad in basketball was almost en tirely composed of members of the Sophomore class. The success of this Sophomore drama so far is due to the clever and capable di- rection of Mrs. Frazer and llliss Sutter. xxx - fs.-+-miQf as l43l fs ' il SOPI-IOMORE GIRLS Front row: Marie Kirkland, Evelyn Hill, Hilda Beck, Dorothy Bash, Ruth Evans, Helen Evans, Betty McCay.

According to us, we think we have carried out our plans. VVe started by boost- ing the football games, for which almost everyone bought tickets. Freshie faces could be seen at the games no matter which way one looked. Basketball came next along the long line of sports activities. YVe enjoyed every game up to the last minute. Be- sides being onlookers, we also took an active part in trying out on our own teams. Nlany boys and girls are now playing either football or basketball. The girls' gym exhibition was another successful enterprise, the dances and stunts were skilfully per- formed and the financial returns were better than we had expected. WVe feel that we have a bright future ahead as far as sports go. Settling down to the quieter work of acting and boosting plays, the Freshmen have shown, with good results, what they can do in that line, Our First tryout inldramatics came with the little play we gave at Christmas time. Since then there have been in- teresting talks and performances in assembly. Dramatization was stimulated when over half the class saw Otis Skinner and Nlaude Adams in their production of the Merchant of Venice , the classic which we studied. After the Valistic play, the freshies walked around quoting Hlinesl' for weeks. The High School's operetta came next and was supported with as much enthusiasm as the preceding events. Of course you must remember that some of the freshman boys took part in it. The Dickson Operetta in April was another real success. Neither did we slip in our marks. Our honor rolls were quite long and included a number of students carrying extra subjects. Glee Club, Orchestra, and Band make up these extra subjects that are so popular. Much credit is due to the teachers, for we certainly get along well with them, even though our conduct marks do not always There you have our history. We have tried to do our best, and we have enjoyed our work to the utmost. We are looking forward to even bigger and better things FRESHMAN HONOR ROLL First Sem ester William Alrich, Walter Balbach, Dorothy Cotton, Eugene Crum, Edith Erenrich, Robert Garcelon, Hedwig Glass, Harold Hoffman, William Hummel, Kathryn Kann, Jean Lemon, Irvin Litman, Dorothy Loesel, William Lower, VVilliam Lutz, Frank Nliller, Alma lVIocker, Campbell Moses, Betty Pfeil, Richard Shelby, Joseph Silber- man, Jean Smith, Lucille Uptegraff, George Webb, Joseph Zaccari. ,--f' g'X ,.-.-,t ,... .51932r gg l l , show it. l j next year in the High School Building. i l47l tv.. lf' llx V H.-:ff FRESHM,-KN GIRLS Front row: Ruth Buente, Margaret Newton, Edith Mottatt, Dorothy Loesel, Nadine Fedack, Edith Erenrich, Lucille Fpteggraf.

The l purpose of the committee, as conceived by Nlr. T. K. Patterson, its sponsor, was to have a reliable group which might be called upon to assist with the organization of 1 school affairs. l The group is made up of four Seniors and four Juniors. Those selected on the I committee were chosen because of their interest in, and ability to guide, extra-cur- ricular activities. The Senior members of the committee were especially active in that respect. The Seniors included in it are Linus Clarke, president of the Senior classg Richard Packer, stage manager, and president of the Swiss Thespiansg War1'ena Lee, president of the Senior Girls Clubg and Eleanor Cooper, editor of the Swissvalian. The group was selected also with their scholastic standing in mind. Some of , the duties of the group are selling tickets, especially in Dickson and the grade school huildingsg distributing advertising literature for the school activitiesg ushering at the + various school functionsg and in general, assisting hir. Patterson in his management of the business affairs of the school. I Klr. Patterson was added to the faculty as a science teacher five years ago. Since then, he has proved himself able to do more than pound scientific facts into the craniums of the students assigned to room 19 for instruction. He has won the respect and admiration of his students and with his helpful suggestions has proved himself of real value to the school organizations as business manager of the high school l activities.

Dashiell, prepared for many activities. i The club as usual has been very busy not only in selling tickets for plays and various athletic games but also in cooperating with Nlr. Kelso in the collection of clothes for the needy. The first meeting of the Boosters was i gr- f , i qi' -1 ' 1 ' 1 ? fs held at Fleischls where, after hearing an l l , explanation of the purpose of the organ- I ization given by lVIr. Dashiell, each ' member made a short speech. llfleetings L 1 were also held in the auditorium at var- ious intervals so as to keep the members , . . . . 1 informed of new activities. This year has without doubt been one of the most successful in the history of I I gk g the club and has been voted a big suc- cess by all those associated in any way l MR.

Today this mission is fulfilled by the modern newspaper. During the past year, the Valistic played the role of 'crier for Swissvale High, The paper is published once every three Weeks by a staff of approximately twenty students. An entirely new business program was launched with the introduction of the subscription method of sales. The income from the play, Hero by the Hour, assisted in financing the paper. Silver pins were awarded to the senior members of the stall. This is the first time such recognition has been made, but the custom will probably be continued each year. Excellent features, up-to-date news and appropriate cartoons were outstanding features of this year's Valistic. jThe Valisticg ' Kj'?5fs.5 if ' WT . 1 - 1 , un TU PLAY HiHiTHArlr ., ,i 'lt -' , je 1 - H- -f 2 1 Y: !2?w.. ,t V QW.. . -12.11 ' H In i .,..

' All material for the book was typed by the commercial department, directed by Miss Alice VVhitten, while the art work was done by the art editors under the supervision of Miss Estelle Thomas. The Annual work was divided into two main parts, one for each semester so as to prevent a last-minute rush.

The Senior members of these music groups try out for the principal roles in the annual Dperetta, while the chorus is made up of the remaining ones of the Senior group and the Junior members. The Glee Club classes are primarilj to develop, in the students, an appreciation of vocal music. Selections are given by members of the Glee Clubs at the important functions of the year, such as Christmas assembly, Baccalaureate, and Commencement, as well as hflusic YVeek. THE BAND Slowly the curtain of the year opened and with a blare of trumpets, forty blue- caped musicians announced the opening of the football season. These boys, making up the Swissvalian High School Band, were the principal actors between halves. The director, Emmett O'Hare, lifted his baton, and, much to the pleasure of the gay crowd in the stands, the performance went on. The younger members from the Dickson School, Jimmy Thompson and Sam Gailey, along with a number of Fresh- men, joined the organization, strengthening it in both quantity and quality. On Armistice Day, the band accompanied the local American Legion post to the parade in Pittsburgh, where a splendid showing was made. After this the band re- turned to Swissvale, where it participated in the local parade. Forty musicians turned out in their blue and gold capes and caps for the Char- leroi game at the stadium. For Ellwood Rushworth, Dqpald Fishell, David Lind- berg, Robert Kropp, and Ralph Leighty, it was a last appearance with the organ- ization , while for the others, it was just to be a long intermission between acts. The band, this year, was under the general supervision of lVIiss Carrie Hamilton, head of the music department, but was conducted at both performances and rehearsals by Emmett O'Hare, a former student of the Ithaca College of lVlusic. THE UIQCHESTIQA To the strains of The Cuban Love Song , the orchestra ushered in the 1931- 1932 season at the Valistic play. Last year's group, augmented by recruits from both the High School and Dickson, now numbers thirty-six musicians. Following the usual custom, the orchestra, directed by hfliss Hamilton, played for all of the school plays and the operetta. In addition to these activities, the orchestra rehearses twice a week-full ensemble on Tuesdays and the string section on Thursdays, The,last appearance of this musical organization will be at Commencement, for which they will play the graduation march. --- T- es..- .STQEEI-.L , as LLL. ,ss 1571 L, Hi col Lv ru l 1 O PERETTA CAST Priilcipal charactersfstanrling in front row Cleft to riglitj Elmer Dobozy, Arthur Metcalfe, Linus Clarke, Doris Taylor, Ricllartl Meredith, Nellie Rezuler, Jesse Tayuton, Beverley Brown. and Ellwoocl Rushworth.

The organization included over 21 hundred students from the High School and about twenty boys from the Freshman class at Dickson. The plot of the operetta reveals the story of the diFFnculties that arise from a case of mistaken identity. The colorful costumings and most interesting scenery and lighting effects, combined with excellent music, made Sailor Maids a worth while performance.

WHEIQD BY THE HOUR Hero by the Hour was a success from the standpoint of capability of t-he cast, satis- faction for those who attended, and fullness in the box office receipts. An intriguing plot, combined with Fine acting, kept the audience constantly tensed. The play developed, when the hero, bored with life, suddenly fell into the midst of an exciting adventure, secretly planned for him by his friends. This escapade turned out seriously when the fake adventure became immersed in the real thing. Everything ended happily and the hero, according to tradition, fell in love with the beautiful maiden who had provided the excitement. The cast was selected from aspirants from the three upper classes. Hero by the Hour was presented for the benefit of the Valistic , and the proceeds helped pay for the expenses incurred by the issuance of the newspaper.

SWISS TI-1 ESIDIANS Shortly after the success of the play Zaraqueta, the cast decided to form a drama club which they hoped would be greatly beneficial to those students particularly interested in dramatics. Accordingly, the Swiss Thespians were organized, consisting of thirty members of the junior and Senior classes with a sufliciently high scholastic standing. The meetings are held twice a month in the Dickson School and prove very interesting and profitable. Special attention is given to the study of the modern stage and presentation of short plays, followed by a social period. The increasing ability of the members was proven to the student body in assembly in the fall when the one-act play, VVho Says Can't was presented. Early in March, an open meeting of the club was held in which a delightful program was presented. The program included three one-act plays in which the majority of the members were cast, the others taking the parts of stage managers: Crime Conscious with an all-male cast, has a mysterious background. 'kLittle Prison is in an elevator cage, with an all-female cast, and The Marble Arch, consisting of a mixed cast, had its setting in the period of the 1890's.

THE SENICIQ EIIQLS' CLUB In the fall of this school year, the Senior Girls Club began its activities and again proved itself an asset to the Alma Mater. Its greatest purpose is to create a feeling of friendliness among the girls and this aim has been successfully attained. Since 1927 the club, with its membership including all Senior girls, has become more beneficial each year. The group is under the able sponsorship of Miss Pauline Piper. The girls dressed dolls for the Philanthropic Society at Christmas time and in order to add to the enthusiasm of the affair, a beauty W, -3 , lvh- 'V , contest was held. All proceeds were used in helping the needy. 3.1 1 1 V, e Candy has been sold by the members at 5 . all the basketball and football games, thus ge? -,1 l eliminating dues. i V,- c.

Most of the principal characters were selected from the freshman class. The choruses and dance groups were chosen from students in the fourth to the ninth grades. Miss Hamilton directed, assisted by Miss McLeod, who had charge of the dancesg and Misses Morrisey and jones, in charge of dialogue. The other Dickson teachers assisted with costum- ing and chorus work. The story of the operetta tells how an American traveling salesman tries to sell electric machinery to the Dutch farmers to replace the ancient windmills. The Dutch farmer, Hert- ogenbosch, is easily interested in the salesman's proposition' when the t'Yankee' llatters him on his wonderful reputation as a drummer. Not until the Dutchman's wife interrupts the scheme is the salesman convinced he must sell elsewhere. The Dutchman's two daughters and their boy friends add amusing comedy to the whole. Members of the freshman class painted scenery and acted as stage was as follows: Mynhccr Hrrtogcrzbarfh Vroufw Hertogenbwrh lffillzclmina . . Hilda . . Bob Yankee . Ham . Fritz . Katrina managers.

This exhibition replaced the usual annual one given by the high school students. Anne Bentz and Virginia Loar cleverly announced the events of the evening,-- a series of drills, marches, and folk dances, all in appropriate costumes. The Grand March Cwhich was ditferent l, the Sailor's Horn Pipe, Skater's VValtz, and American Country Dances were high spots of the entertainment given by the girls of the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. Betty Pheil and Peggy Roberts led the stunts and games which followed the formal program. The satisfaction expressed by the very large audience on both evenings proved the success of the affair. The music was furnished by a group of boys from the high school. - I oT'Q?r?--D-.c... . aaa. aa- pm 4, 'x JL THE Ani DEDAIHMENT The year 1931-32 has been an important one in attractive work created by mem- bers of the art department of the high school. The Art Council consists of four seniors: llargaret Lehm, Kizzie Ann Benner, Richard Packer, and Wade Plummer. The scenery staff, under the direction of ldiss Thomas and assisted by capable stage managers, has presented an entirely different effect for each of the five public stage presentations of the year. Students taking art work have also designed, and made, attractive posters advertising the activities of the high school. An interesting variety to the printed page of the Valistic has been the original linoleum block cuts and cartoons, one of which has appeared in practically every issue of the school news- paper this year. The stage crew, working with only two interior sets, has carefully worked out economical plans and, with very little expense, has made worthwhile backgrounds for the plays and operettas. VVith Richard Packer, chief designer , Wade Plummer, lVilliam Daniels, Joseph O'Brien, Francis Simon, and Edward Nlyers, the scenery and backstage work was efficiently managed. The property managers, although not under the art department, worked with the stage managers to create effective and suitable settings for the plays. Olga Stuart, Ethel Hedman, Nlargaret Lehm, Jean Smith, Kizzie Ann Benner, llflarion Kautz, Blanche Fogle, Helen Yates, and Sieg- fried Schwarzbach assisted with scenery painting. Those who have done special lettering and poster work during the year are Basil Lee, Olga Stuart, hrlargaret Fowler, Helen Litman, Edward Griffiths, Rowland Garland, hilary Robertshaw, Jane Nlaranda, Gladys Penick, Lyman Divers, Nlargaret Lindberg, Nlary O'Bryan, llflildred Simmers, David Walters, Anna Treu, Jack lVilliams, Frances Riggs, and Clarence Larson. The Freshmen who have worked on scenery are Julia Harrigal, Christine lVIc- lntyre, Betty Phiel, Anna Lipanovich, Robert Friden, lldichael Nlarconi, James Buckley, and Ned Shroeder. Posters have been made by the following freshmen Z-Thelma Fowler, Clara Daniels, Betty Farr, Helen Bald, Elinor BdcCutcheon, lVIarie Glass, Elinor Thwaite, lllargaret XVhitner, James Buckley, Elmer Rossko, Chester lVoodward and Gibson Van Housen, as well as by members of the group who worked on scenery. John Davis, Rudolph Hellmund, Francis Simon, and Basil Lee have done art work for the Valistic. The annual art work was done by Evelyn Loessel, Olga Dolezal, and John Davis. gg g v1932r- L.. - ,s.L..?,...

FDDTDALL Taking another step toward the coveted undefeated season, Coach Paulie's 'fblue and goldn gridders handed in a record of six wins, one tie, and two defeats for the 1931 campaign. From the large squad, which included thirteen lettermen, Coach Paulie, with the able assistance of Assistant Coach Walter' Downie and Joe Renner, built a combination which was undoubtedly the strongest to represent Swissvale High for quite a few years. After a practice game between the first and second varsity squads which the first varsity won, 13 to O, the Swissvale eleven downed the Taylor Allderdice representa- tives in the season's opener at the Allderdice held, 6 to 0. The following Friday afternoon, at Homestead, the local aggregation tasted its first defeat, at the hands of the powerful Homestead crew. The Swissvale goal line was crossed twice in the second quarter and although most of the playing was done in Homestead territory, the game ended with the HSteeler's on top, 13 to 0. The next three games, played on the home field, proved victories for the Swiss- vale boys. Nlunhall was handed a 19 to O setback, Avalon was sent home with the short end of a 13 to 0 count and Rankin was completely snowed under at 32 to 0. Next came the disappointing Duquesne game. Time after time, the local boys carried the Uspheroidu into Duke territory only to lose possession of it, once on a THE BLUE AND GOLD CHEERLEADERS Girls: Corinne Bish, Helene Haney, Ruth VVilliams, Marion Seitz, Margaret Shultz, Eleanor Cooper.

The game ended, a scoreless tie. The team next tackled TVilkinsburg at Graham field and, after a hard-fought battle, emerged the losers of a 20 to 0 count. ln spite of the fact that the Holy City eleven scored three touchdowns, the game was quite evenly contested. One of the TVilkinsburg scores came on an intercepted pass. The climax of the season came on Thanksgiving morning at Dickson field when the Swissvale aggregation turned in a 13 to 0 victory over Edgewood High. It XVZIS the first victory of a Swissvale eleven over the Pickett men since 1926 and was even more commendable for the fact that the Edgewood team was the best in that school's history and had not lost a single game before it met Swissvale. The season was brought to a fitting close with a combined football and basketball banquet at the Penn-Lincoln Hotel. Joe Catone, the scrappy little full-back of the team, was elected honorary captain. Doc Kennedy, acting as toastmaster, intro- duced as guest speakers, the Captains Eddie'l Hirshberg and llflurray Armentrout of the Pitt and Tech football squads, respectively. I Letters were awarded to Captain Joseph Catone, Jesse Taynton, Joseph Sullivan, Alvin Bailey, Thomas Rogers, liaurice Gascoigne, hflaurice Zamore, Clem Edgar, James Casillo, Jerry llatelan, George Jurkowitz, Charles Carlson, Ross Emrick, Bernard KlcNish, Robert lfmrick, Clarence Anderson, Joseph King, and Ernest Toth. The Eve graduating seniors who received gold footballs as a token of having won their monogram in their junior and senior years are Jesse Taynton, Nlaurice Gascoigne, Alvin Bailey, Joseph Sullivan, and Thomas Rogers. An exceptionally large squad of about eighty boys turned out for spring foot- ball. After several weeks of hard practise, a scrimmage was held with Rankin High's next yearls lineup. On April 30, the probable 1932 S. H. S. varsity eleven met the all-star Senior grid team at Dickson as a wind-upl' for the spring season. The game was hotly contested with both teams showing fine form and claiming what might be termed a moral victory, as the result was a scoreless tie. Coach Paulie seemed well satisfied with the showing of his boys and has hopes for an undefeated team next year. '1932f fl.-I-M l53l N 'vwstmr , I 1 DIQINCIDAI.

Another successful year for the girls' basketball team will go down in history for the 1932 season. The team was in line for another Independent County League championship, an honor they had won for two consecutive years, when it was learned that the league had been dissolved. The records of Braddock and Swissvale were even, one more game would have decided the championship. From a hard schedule of fifteen games, the Swissvale Sextet emerged with thirteen games won and only two lost. The first defeat was at the hands of VVi1kinsburg with a score of 32-30. But in the return game, the home team proved their strength by winning an overwhelming victory, 55-19. The second defeat was received when the team met Braddock, their old rivals, on Braddocles floor. The score of this thrilling game was 16-1-1. In the return game Braddock was defeated with the score, 25-17. The season was started off with an Alumnae game which the varsity won, 32-23. Then came the determined Duquesne team who were set back 33-25. The return game with this team was a hard fight from beginning to end, Swissvale win- ning 31-29. .ESX , at -.. 9T932Y- ...,, l71l The expert teamwork of the Swissvale lassies was shown in the scores they piled up against illunhall, Homestead, Edgewood and Rankin.

BUYS, BASKETBALL lVhat proved to be the best season on the records for a Swissvale High quintet started rather dismally with four straight defeats in pre-season games, the 'fblue and goldn losing close decisions to Braddock High and taking a pair of defeats from Rankin High. Coach Paulie's Gold Cagers turned over a new leaf on New Year's clay by downing East Pittsburgh High, 1-l to ll, for the first victory of the season and the first of fourteen straight wins. Next came the thrilling victory over the all-star Alumni team in which the varsity showed decided improvement and Hashed some real form to come out on top by a 2-l to 23 score. The Swissvale passers took over all their opponents in the first round of the Section Xl battles, winning handily from Aspinwall, Oaltmont, Etna, Edgewood, Verona, and lVilkinsburg. oo lQ32'f' l7+l N 5.,,g! ,.,,--...., , c . , r The East Pittsburgh lads were the next visitors at the Dickson court. The Swissvale aggregation, after trailing 11 to 8 at half time, stepped out to tie the game at I5-all and won in an overtime period, 17 to 15. Swissvale continued its winning streak by adding five more league victories to their long string before taking the short end of a 20 to 18 count in an overtime game, the final sectional tussle, at Wilkinsburg. This record of eleven victories and one defeat gave the blue and gold quint the Section XI title for the third successive season and the right to meet East Pitts- burgh High, Section XVIII champs, in the opener of the W. P. I. A. L. Elimination Series at the University of Pittsburgh Stadium. IVIeeting the f'Shamrocks for the third time in the season, the Swissvale five found the zone-defense, presented by the Hgreen and white, the toughest met in the year. After leaving the floor at 'fhalftimel' with the score 5 to -If in their favor, the Swissvale boys came back to count up eleven points while holding their opponents to hve tallies. This 16 to 9 count gave Swissvale its hrst victory in the Eliminations in three years and ticket to the second-round encounter with Charleroi High, champions of Section V. Before meeting Charleroi, the boys went down to California for a good time and to play a game with the strong California High quint. At the intermission, the score stood at 11 to 7 with the Californians ahead. The Swissvalians in the second half showed their best form of the year both defensively and offensively by holding the Hred and white to two field goals for four points while running up a total of ten field goals and one foul for twenty-one points to make the score, 28 to 15. Ruled the Uunderdogsu in their second round encounter with the Hcougarsn of Charleroi High, the Swissvale netmen went out to show that they had the stuff which makes champions and to win. In spite of the determined fight put up by the smaller gold-jerseyedu passers, the Swissvale boys were on the short end of a 10 to 5 count when the half ended. Starting a drive in the third quarter, after the hffonon- gahela Valley boys had strengthened their lead to l-l- to 7, the local cage-men tied up the score at I-J--all as the period ended. Charleroi hopped off to a four point lead on two long shots early in the final stanza. Despite the great effort and fine team- work put forth by the Swissvale quintet in the final minutes of play, only one field goal and one foul shot fell through the net for a total of three points-just one too few-and Swissvale bowed to Charleroi, IS to 17 and dropped out of the eliminations. Losing but three lettermen through graduation, and retaining eight boys with at least one year's experience on the varsity as well as those on the third team, prospects for an even better season next year are bright. The seniors who received letters and gold basketballs are Edward Fullen and Robert Nickel. Others who received letters were Ross Emrick, Earl VValters, James Casillo, Charles Carlson, William Rosenbloom, John Pcholinski, Edward Loughran, Robert Emrick, Howard Lutz, and Thomas Lucas. ,f ' ' ii'ecg -.- A. ----. --.-..5 1 9 32 Cgfmw -,.., - i751 s l xg 2' 1 ,c ff., ff' .--s-- -- AW 'vi .4 1 xg li, -Q M t s Y l t 9 fix l .. lt i U tb' l l D24 i A HD!

Eddie was elected the honorary captain of the season. Tummy Lucas, another senior, though small and quiet, was one of the squad's cleverest ball-handlers and could show plenty of tight when needed. Bob Nifkfl, the third senior, a fine center, developed into one of the best passers in the district and was a necessary cog in the tea-m's success. Rau Ernrick, '33, again rated the number one guard of the section, played a whale of a game against East Pittsburgh at the Stadium, Clmrlfx Carlson, '33, played a fast and shifty game at a forward berth and was a constant threat to the opponents. Earl lI'nllfr.r, '33, in his first year on the varsity, as a guard played a steady, clean game which won him the praises of even his opponents. Jimmir Cnrillo, '33, greatly improved over last season, played a hard, fast brand of ball at the center position. Bob Emrifle, '34, held down a forward job and was a model of cool-headedness through- out the season. liddir Luuyltran, '34, a forward, the most aggressive member of the squad, always on his toes, took advantage of every break. .lllfIll!ly Ptffalilzrki, '33, an excellent shot and a Clever passer, was a forward whom the opponents had to watch closely. ljti-win T. I'1111liv, a line coach and a good sport, besides directing the varsity teams in their battles toward victory, was an inspiration and a real pal to all of the boys. Hnfwnrti Lutz, '32, with his splendid managership, was an important part of this winning team's machinery. 7193253 .cscs-c-...-. l76l N I N DIVI DUAL STAIQS A pianistic fantasy She makes it seem so easy.

' 1932 Q' ggggg l78l S Q1b933f l79l Do You Know- -that railroad trains can be run by a signal in the cab? They can! The device is comparatively simple and is known as the Union Continuous Cab Signal. A duplicate of the indications given an engineman by wayside signals is carried on a miniature signal in the engine cab. And this new method is much safer be- cause it gives the engineman constant and continuous information of conditions ahead over every foot of track. With the Union Continuous Cab Signal, which is constantly visible, despite weather conditions, the engineman is able to run his train on scheduled speed. This saves money for the railroad, because stopping and running at greatly reduced speeds disrupts schedules and is costly. And do you know that the Union Switch B6 Signal Company is the largest manufacturer of railroad signaling apparatus in the world and that it has been a leader in each progressive step of signaling improvement?
