In teaching advanced math, you have become a friend rather than iust a teacher to the students who admire and respect you. Your un- matched sense of humor and sympathetic nature made what seemed maior problems appear easy to solve. With careful guidance you have coached the basketball and tennis teams. We dedicate to you, Mr. Melvin Klein, this yearbook in appreciation of all the many things you have done for this graduating class of 1957. MR.

In our first six years we gained fundamental knowledge and formed solid friendships in our own grade schools. Then we were combined into a class, the class of 1957, when we entered Junior High School. ln seventh and eighth grades we ironed out the diffi- culties caused by the new subiects, the variety of teachers, the large number of classmates, and our prejudices about the other two wards. In ninth grade we greeted the last large addition to our class and 16 ' President-James Capellman Vice President-Jack Crosby Secretary-Barbara Mack Treasurer-Stephen Kristofic Seated-N. Gould, L. Schelm Mack started to mold ourselves into a unified whole. We also chose the course we were to follow in our Sophomore, Junior, and Senior years. Our Sophomore and Junior years were spent pursuing that course and working toward graduation. Now in our Senior year, we look back over the past twelve years - all the work we struggled through, all the laughter that rang through our leisure, all the friendships that have developed. We are sorry to leave THS, yet, in a way we are glad to have a chance to put into practice the knowledge we have accumulated. We are sorry to leave our friends and teachers, yet, we are ready to form new friendships and relationships.

Agnes, The business manager, and Georg- anne and Mel, The co-editors of the literary statt, organized their groups under The guiding hands ot Their sponsors. S. Poskin, R, Robbins, K. Kennedy, S. Kristotic QUIPPUS Behind The scenes of any publi- cation are the staff members who plan pictures, write copy, and put The year book together. Sam took care of all pictures, Nancy was in charge of senior picture schedules, Judy made up schedules and planned for class and activity pic- tures, Joan, Nancy, Ann, Elaine, Sylvia, and Jean wrote the material, Jack and Al took care of the sports department, Elizabeth supervised The material and cut The copy, Sylvia, Jean, Joan, and Elaine were the Typists of The material, and lost but not least Georgeanne, Melvin and Mrs. Heid co-ordinated the activities. Working together, ex- pressing ideas, and collecting their ideas and opinions, this is what our staff has done To present to you the 1957 Quippus. S. Kirch, 5. Bowman E. Hall, J.

Along with managing the sub- Quippus Business Stat? scriptions to the year book, this group devotes itselt to canvas- sing the community's business houses to raise the much needed money tor the support ot the Quippus, in addition to control- ling the funds from other sources. The 1957 Quippus Busi- ness Statt and its sponsor are to be commended for the etti- cient manner in which they carry out their duties. Seated-M. A, Petach, J. Martinkovich, B. Bordonaro, S.

The sponsor, Miss Bark, edits the copy and acts as head advisor. The energetic cir- culation staff, headed by Wes Hetrick, this year managed to increase the num- ber of subscriptions by the use of a vigorous advertising campaign. 56 Hetrick, K. Markwell, M.

This is the standing order for all Tarentumite reporters, both Senior and Junior High. lf a student is seen busily scratching on a piece of paper, he might be a reporter, iotting dovvn ideas for the next issue instead ot' being a mere note writer. Next to listen- ing, asking questions is the duty of all good statt mem- bers. Who, When, Why, and Where are active Words in their vocabularies. Besides the news of-the school, class- room antics, romantic interests, and club proiects appear in each issue. After articles are written, turned in, and approved, the typists and mimeographers, with the aid of the Misses Zetz and Carlig, start on the enormous task of preparing a finished paper to distribute to the over tour hundred subscribers.

They use the motto, Practice makes perfect, and if you listen you can hear everything from Oh, Holy Night to Halleluiah Chorus . The chorus sings for the annual festival, P.T.A. programs, and special holiday assemblies. They are the height of fashion in their maroon and white robes with their maestro, Mr. Schrall, in front ot them. The accompani- ment of the pianists and the large baby grand set oft an exciting, musical scene. The Tarentum chorus and Mr. Schrall can be proud of the musical talents and pro- ductions which they give us. 61 Band BAND Busy, Busy, Busy, that's the word that describes the Tarentum High School's red and black-clad band. From August through June, it is one ofthe most active groups at T.H.S. Playing for football games in the fall, concerts in the winter and early spring, and commencement activities later in the year, this group is really busy. This year the band had the pleasure and honor of leading the parade for President Eisenhower in Pittsburgh. The band, which is directed by Mr. Schmitt, is an organization of which Tar- entum students can be proud. 1 , if xff Xxx V5 'K A 1 L.Q'.,,N QM, 'X ix EQ' L-Q S 1 'E'-n ' F X v Q ,H..N.x,...

Hl-Y'S AND TRI l-ll-Y'S To create, maintain, and extend Christian principles throughout our school and community - Did you ever hear that praiseworthy phrase before? Of course you have, and probably you have wondered to what organization it referred. lt is the slogan of the Hi-Y's and Tri Hi-Y's all over the country. Without these organizations, good will among men would not spread so rapidly as it does. Many holidays are made more joyous for sick and needy persons because of the gifts they have re- ceived from these helpful service organizations. SOPHOMORE TRI Hl-Y Row l-S. Callen, B. A. Gavurik, J.

STAGE CREW, PROJECTION CREW AND MAKE-UP CLUB Can you picture the plays, pep meetings, and assemblies at T.H.S. with no lights, no microphones, no scenery, and no make- up? lt's hard to do, isn't it? The stage crew boys and Mr. Bernabei build and paint the scenery that is used in the plays. The lights are set up by Mr. Kuhn and the boys in the projection crew. All the illusions that make-up is capable of producing are skillfully provided by Mrs. Foultz and the girls in the Make-Up Club. These people, providing audio-visual aids for all school productions, work together to add interest and reality to the various programs. 66 T. Beacom Eddy, Mr. Kuhn Row l-F. Michalek, G.

The Key Club, sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club of Tarentum and Mr. Nease, performs many laudable services. Members sponsor drives for needy families and work with the Salvation Army. The Sportsman's Club is composed of a group of boys interested in hunting, fishing, and the outdoors in general. Together with Mr. Tippery, their sponsor, they spend many hours learning rules of conservation and good sportsmanship. The Muzzle-Loading Rifle Club is a recently organized, but active group, and are unique in the fact that they are the only high school group of this type in the country. The members use guns of Civil War stock and actually fire them at local ranges. We agree that the accuracy is not perfect, but the sport proves re- laxing and stimulating. The members, by the way, mold their own bullets. ...s-r Sportsmen's Club Row T-R. Sober, W. Esser, W. Lar- kin, R. Faber, P. Painter, K. Bell, R. Poskin Row 2-L. Beacom, T. Beacom, R. Mallonee, C.

Under the helpful guidance of Miss Cole and Mr. Watterson, the members of these organizations learn correct speech and dramatic procedures. Radio Club members make daily announcements and lead daily devotions. The Thespian Troupe presents the Quippus play and Senior Class play. Another activity which trains directly is the Student Activity Fund, under the leadership of Mr. Stewart.

Crosby Library Assistants, Modern Music Appreciation Clubs Literature and music are two forms ot Liberal Arts that go hand in hand. Representing the literature form of LiberalArts are the Library Assistants. These busy-bees at THS are very helptul to the other students. They paste cards in books, mend, and, of course, supply answers to Do you know any good mystery books? , Where can I find author information, and many other questions. The M.M.A.C. is the musical side ot the Liberal Arts. A group of students, under the leadership ot Mr. Melvin Klein, or- ganized this club so they can learn to understand music better, whether it be jazz or popular. The members have a worthwhile collection of records, and sometime during the school year they present a program to the student body.

Home Ec Clubs are either baking goodies, making garments which will be worn proudly, or learning the art of decorating tables attractively. Clothing, food, decoration problems are solved. Drivers' Club members learn good driving habits and, when permitted the use of the family chariot, ltor that extra special occasionj they need no chauffeur. SAFE DRIVERS' CLUB Row l-K.

Three of the THS clubs provide such activities for serious-minded students who are interested in coins, stamps, and photography. Magazine reading in these clubs is not only permitted-it is required! The trade magazines are great helps for the budding philatelist or numismatic fan, to say nothing of the photographer. During Photography Club meetings, the members discuss the methods of picture-taking, developing, cropping, and posing. Stamp and coin collectors are shown the intricacies of their hobbies by Miss Lardin, who is an ardent collector herself. With all the emphasis on hobbies and constructive leisure-time use, these clubs help direct energy to worthwhile proiects that can lead to a life-time avocation. Seated-W. Nolf, W.

At times during the year, movies ot Rome and other countries important to Roman history, are shown. Miss Toepter, having been in Rome, is able to give a first-hand account of the country, people, and customs. Roman mythology and age-old legends of Rome are studied so thoroughly they seem almost real.

Don't be alarmed at this either. lt is French Club day with an appointed committee in charge of the program-singing French songs, conversing, or even learning French grammar as they learn by doing.

'1-I'-ZQI f .-u-- l l QUIPPUS PLAY On November 16, 1956, the public viewed Dr, Hudson's Secret Journal , this year's presentation of the annual Quippus play. Dr. Hudson, a young over- worked doctor, attempted to rear a teen-age daugh- ter successfully and to expand the local hospital. Quippu Play Mr. Warner, a hard-hearted businessman, owned the property on which an asldition to the hospital had to be built. His daughter, Barbara, took a iob in the hospital under an assumed name and fell in love with Joel, an assistant to Dr. Hudson. The plot be- comes more complicated when Joyce, Dr. Hudson's daughter, had a serious head injury requiring brain surgery. Through his great faith in God, Dr. Hudson, although not a brain surgeon, performed the delicate surgery saving his daughter, he also expanded the hospital by making friends with Mr. Warner. 'axis The cast, directed by the able Mr. Watterson, did an excellent job of interpreting and performing. Out- standing in the play were Robert Hill as Dr. Hudson, Lonna Myers, nurse, Dorothy Kolen, Barbara, Irving Shore, Joel, and Robert Koh, Tim. 81 I I I I I I I I I I I Athletics X sm gs ,N .-ig, f , if viii is fu- Ye liz v . . 5 4 'I lr '4 m I 4 ', Row Row Row VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM -J.

After a poor exhibition ot two wins and nine losses, they perked up with section victories over Leechburg, Plum, West Deer, and Springdale. They had gained first place but had to relinquish it to Freeport following defeats by Freeport and by Springdale. After wins over Free- port on the home floor and at a play-oft at Arnold, Tarentum earned its third straight title and traveled to Pitt fieldhouse for the Class A WPIAL play-offs. They were eliminated in their tirst game by the fast playing Red Raiders from Uniontown in a nip-and-tuck game by the score of 59 to 52. Although senior standouts Harry Swaney, Jack Sadecky, and John Seiici along with John Kuhn and Marlin Moser are leaving, we look for good things from next year's Redcats also. This year's Redcats ended the season with an overall record of 12 wins and 12 losses.

Playing a tough schedule the Jays were not as suc- cessful as the varsity and posted a record of 6 wins and 'I6 losses. Despite their unimpressive record the Jays played good ball and have a lot of good replacement material for future varsity teams. The Junior High team, coached by Mr. Warriner, is the beginning rung on the ladder that leads to basketball success at T.H.S. Emphasis is not placed on individual achievement or winning games but rather on the fundamentals of the game and co- operative team work. Despite the small amount of practice time available and a limited schedule the Junior High team posted a record of 7 wins and 8 losses. JV Basketball Team Mr. Clements, R. Hill, T. Force, M.

Our main strength was in the person of Chuck Hazlett, very ably assisted by Harry Swaney and Jim Capellman. Chuck and Harry entered the W.P.I.A.L. doubles tournament and gave a good account of themselves, even at Mount Lebanon where they were defeated. This year finds the team with several experienced players, Harry Swaney, Jim Capellman, and Jerry Persun, plus two promising Juniors, Blair Dodds and Irv Shore.

Mr. Tippery's baseball team was another one of our athletic groups that had a good season last year, 1956. The early part of the season saw Rich Stanczak and Jack Sadecky doing an excellent job in the batting department. As the season developed, Lou Marmo and Jack Sadecky became our heavy hit- ters. Val Durkac helped to round out this squad by his excellent pitching, he even had a shut out when we played East Deer, 5-0. The record showed that we ended the season with a slate of five wins and five losses which was fairly good. By the time this appears in print, the i957 baseball season for THS will have been completed, and we hope with success. Heftie snags another!

This past fall also found Mr. Clark and Mr. Bernabei teaching the athletes from ninth and tenth grades the fundamentals of football and acquaint- ing them with the rules. The next sport was basketball coached by three very capable gentlemen, Mr. Klein, Varsity, Mr. Clements, Junior Varsity, and Mr. Warriner, Junior High. With basketball over, spring had arrived and baseball was in full swing all over the nation. Here at T.H.S. Mr. Tippery was the man responsible for coaching the baseball team.

You are going to be surprised and delighted at the variety of things which are a port of our school life. At times they may seem commonplace and dull, but what would school be like without them? As you look through the pages of SchooI Life , fond memories will be recalled. Some of the pictures will make you laugh while others may bring a tear. You will see our teachers engaged in conversations in the office, classroom scenes with the students earnestly working on their assignments, candids of your friends, classmates, or maybe even yourself doing a number of everyday things. The School Life section is an addition to the Quippus this year and we, the staff of the 'I957 Quippus, hope you find it enioyable. What's so interesting?
