We want to take this opportunity to show our appreciation for the help which you have given us and for your patient and enthusiastic instructing during our years at Union. As eighth graders and freshmen, we were introduced to high-school Eng- lish and literature by you, and we will all remember your friendly classes. Besides your work as a teacher, you have rendered your services in many other activities. The Beta Tri-Hi-Y is proud to have you as its sponsor, and largely through your efforts it has become one of the most popular clubs in school. You have helped in making the annual Christmas trip to the County Home a great success, and have given your services as a member of the advisory council of the Junior National Honor Society. You have also enlivened many an occasion with your singing. We, the Class of 1955, are especially grateful, however, for your unsel- fish contributions of time and energy as sponsor of the '55 U.

Freshma ln September the 1951!-55 freshman class had their first opportunity to act as citizens of Union High School. They elected the following officers: Tom Hoover. presidentg John flolpo, vice president, and Mary Jo Vajentic, secretary- treasurer. Dn October 30 the freshman elass joined the eighth-graders for some fun at their armual Halloween party. After going through the Spook House and bobbing for apples and marching in the grand parade, prizes were awarded and refreshments served. Many organizations at Union took advan- tage of the varied talents found in this unusually large class. Teac-hers found most of them very much interested in the manual skills. The girls EISS were often heard discussing recipes, the boys spoke of skills learned in industrial arts classes. for these subjects. for the most part, were intro- duced to them for the very first time. Ranking high among these students were the Beta Tri- Hi-Y and F. H. A. for the girls and the sports groups for the boys. Many junior band mem- bers graduated to the senior band this year. The choral groups were pleased to welcome so many new. fine voices. This enthusiastic freshman class, which made an easy adjustment to the faster pace of high school studies and activities, will surely fulfill in their sophomore year the promise shown as freshmen. R.

The Senior Chapter ol' the Honor Society was organ- . . ,, ized on April lo. l95l. Membership in this organization is based upon the four cardinal principles of character. scholarship, leadership. and service. Students are selected on the basis of recomnn-ndations from all faculty members. Members must be senior and junior students. The National Senior Honor Society meetings were held on the second 'lihursday of each month. Meetings were conducted by the president. Joseph Haba, who was assisted by different members acting as program chairmen for the monthly meetings. For the 1954-55 school term the induction service was held in the school auditorium on February' 14. This induction service was combined with the ,lunior Honor Society induction service. The officers from each organization took active part. Mr. Vllilliam l'. Miller. supervising principal of lvnion High School, was guest speaker at the joint induction services. The Senior Honor Society presented a program over the public address system to emphasize American Education Week. The annual event ol Student Teach- ers, Dayi' was carried out by the members of this organization. On this day the members ol' the Honor Society assumed the responsibilities of the teachers and administrators. Each class was conducted entirely by the student teacher. The position of the student teacher gives to each honor society member an in- valuable experience. These senior members have worked well for the success of the Society's projects. For the purpose of promoting higher scholastic standards among students of the eighth. ninth, and tenth grades, the Junior Honor Society was added to Union's list of organizations on November 20, 1952. Any member of the faculty may recommend students for membership by placing their requests with the Teachers' Council, which is comprised of Miss Kosovec. Miss Tiano, Mr. Yanni, Mr. Kimberland, and Mr. Welch. Their recommendations are based on service, scholarship, school citizenship. leadership, and character. This council is assisted by Mr. Hall, faculty advisor. Mr. Hanna capably leads the Junior Honor Society as its faculty sponsor. Once qualihed, members can be suspended or dropped from the society at any time if they fail to maintain any one of the five standards for member- ship. Members of the Junior Honor Society are en- couraged to keep their scholastic rating high and their The Junior Society also has capable members. character admirable. This will help the members to qualify for the Senior Honor Society at a later time. When a member of the Junior Honor Society becomes a junior. he may be selected for membership in the Senior Honor Society. Membership in the Junior Honor Society does not guarantee membership in the Senior Honor Society, for high standards must always be upheld. If there is lacking any of the five basic qualities, a junior will not receive new membership. The Junior Honor Society held a dance in the high school gymnasium. Proceeds were used to buy new membership pins. Junior Honor Society pins are in the shape of a blazing torch. Members of this or- ganization held a spring carnival for their fund-raising project. Gaining membership in the Honor Society is considered a great attainment. Future Homemakers of America The senior chapter of the Future Homemakers of America began the '54-155 school term by electing Martha Dugas as president. Other officers elected were: Daryle Webster. vice-presidentg Doris Baker, secre- taryg Donna Mika, treasurerg Martha Dowler. his- toriang Marlene Blue, parliamentariang and Marian Tenaglia. songleader. The F. H. A.. one of the largest girls' clubs, has many purposes. some of which are to promote the growing appreciation of homemaking and foster devel- opment of creative leadership in home and community life. Mrs. Hanna capably leads the F. H. A. girls. The goal of this club is g'Hetter Living Today For Better Homes Tomorroww. Girls from the ninth grade and up are eligible for membership in the F. H. A. On October 4- an impressive candlelight ceremony was held in the school auditorium. The new olbcers HUMEM QNBWRE AKEQS Senior F.H.A. ollieers at induction. were installed by Dorene Blue, last yearis president. Many members of the F. H. A. attended the induction serviceg afterwards dancing was enjoyed, and refresh- ments were served in the gymnasium. The club held its annual Sno-Hall on December 21. The gymnasium was decorated in the theme of a star. The officers acted as chairmen of the various committees for the Sno-Ball. The Sno-Queen, Jack Frost. and their attendants were elected by the student body. The district meeting for Region B was to be held in Ligonier on October 29g but due to weather condi- tions. it was postponed until April. Twenty-two mem- bers of the club and Mrs. Hanna attended this meeting. Martha Dugas and Cathy Hvizdos participated in the program. The state convention will be held at the Pennsyl- vania State Lniversity at State College. Pennsylvania. in July. The president and representatives of the club plan to attend this meeting. The ofiicers of the Junion F. H. A. chapter are: Barbara llubich. presidentg Nancy Duni. vice-presi- dentg Barbara Tarhalla, secretaryg Joan Esno, treasurer. This group was first organized at Linion in 1942 by Mrs. Helen Macks. The club was then guided by Miss Marjorie Creamer. and for the past three years and presently by Mrs. Barbara Lunger. The Junior F. H. A. is open only to eighth grade girlsg therefore new students make up this club each year. It is a chapter member of the Future Home- makers of America. The aims of the club are practical. for they seek Junior F. H. A. cookbook salesmen. to develop and prepare its members for social living- an all important phase of education. The club also tends to develop leadership and to promote a spirit of co-operation through the teaching of parliamentary procedures and other activities. In addition to their home economics activities, the members sold F.H.A. cookbooks and UNION HIGH SCHOOL bracelets. They held a successful dance on November 19 in the school gymnasium at which a cake walk was featured. The girls plan to buy dishes for the home economics department with the money they raise. The members and Mrs. Lunger also attended the induction service on October 4. We are justly proud of our Future Homemakers of America. flf WWE HDMEMAKFQS Q MEURICA A . NR. R. 1: I fu r: II.

Students and residents of the district are justly proud of the band for it has made successful appearances in band festivals and the Dis- trict Band Concert. The band develops its football-halftime shows by practicing not only during band period but also often during lunch hours. Due to their hard work and to the expert direction of Mr. Dipasquale the band's football halftime shows are always exceptionally well done. Some of the band's other activities consist of playing for the Memorial Day parade, the Halloween, and the firemen's parades. and school assemblies and plays. Also for the first time in five years the band played at Kennywood Park as part of a Carnival of Bands. The band is a social as well as musical organiza- tion. The Thanksgiving and Christmas parties and the annual band picnic in the spring add to the enjoyment its members receive from belonging to the band. An important part of every band performance is the attractive appearance and showmanship of the majorettes. The high mark of the band's year is the annual Spring Concert in which the band's performance is always excellent. Their long hours of practice are well worth the excellent response given to the band at this Spring Concert. Mrs. Lowry and eight pretty prodigies. Three musical men from Union Hi band. The Girls, Chorus As Unionis largest and most attractive musical group. the girls' chorus, under the guidance of its adept director, Mrs. Lowry, has earned for itself praise which it receives for every performance and which it thoroughly deserves. These fine performances are made possible only because the girls are willing to practice during their study halls. at lunchtime, and after school. There is no regular chorus period. During the year the Chorus presented a Thanks- giving program, a candlelight Christmas program, an Easter program, and the highlight of the Chorus, year, the annual spring concert. The Chorus officers for this year are: Jane Powell. president, Glenda Holland, vice-presidentg and Nell Moore, secretary-treasurer. Each did a fine job. The Girls' Chorus and the Boys' Ensemble sent the following people as representatives of the chorus to the Washington All-County Chorus: Ruth Lander, Charlene Duffey, Ann Miller, Glenda Holland. Sally Loffert, Gerry Pirih. Patty Lesko, Larry Davis, Fred Crupe, and Lee Tucci. Another one of the Chorus' activities was to send some of its members to the District Chorus which was held in February at Moon Township High School, and which was directed by Miss Mary Muldowny of New York University. Members of the Chorus who were chosen to attend this affair were Carol Maroni, Jane Powell, and Fred Crupe. H The Hi-Y is an organization of boys whose policy is to create, maintain. and extend throughout the home, school, and community high standards of Christian character and ideals. Applications for new members were filled out at the first meeting. and eighteen applications were accepted. The initiation for the new members was held on Wednesday, October 13 in the gym. ln order to raise funds for the club this year, members successfully initiated a few new projects. First of all the club held a dance after one of the football games. Next, the members sold canisters of mint and hard tack candies. Later on in the year, they conducted their annual Easter egg sale as another means of raising money. i Y The Hi-Y members joined the Tri-Hi-Y to hold a pep rally at the high school on November 18. Some of the schools attending were Hickory, Washington, Trinity, and Chartiers. This year the club sent four delegates to the annual Y. M. C. A. youth conference in Washington, Pennsylvania. At the conference the boys attended lectures concerning the principles of the Y. M. C. A. and the Hi-Y. The four boys who attended this con- ference are Don Resnik, Tom Rose. Edward Ihnot. and Arthur Froats. It is imperative that members of the Hi-Y uphold these ideals-clean living. clean sports, and good Christian character. Danny Halulko entertains four Hi-Y men. Ronnie and Mike passing the bottle. Varsity U One of the most active clubs at Union is the Varsity U. They started the school year by electing Steve Shearson. president and Eddie lhnot, secretary- treasurer. Mr. Bogdan Nicksick, who sponsors the organization, helped the boys plan a variety of activ- ities this year. Some of the events this year were the dances held after the wrestling, football, and baseball games. These dances were held for the purpose of raising funds. ln December they held their annual Varsity U dance which is the highlight among their dances. Varsity members invite the alumni to attend this dance. One of the club's projects most appreciated by the students is the selling of Pepsi-Cola in the audi- 54 torium at noon. Mr. Hanna supervised the selling of Pepsi this year. As an annual project the club purchases jackets for the graduating senior Varsity U members. Each senior boy looks forward eagerly to the time when he receives his Varsity U jacket. The Varsity U is composed of boys who have either earned a letter in a sport or who have partici- pated in a sport at least two years. Boys who have dropped a sport are ineligible for further membership. The Varsity U was started in 19416 by Mr. Dom Rich. Other sponsors have been Mr. Canning and Mr. Mervosh. Many of their activities have been worth- while to the school as well as to the boys. Ill-Y lf. I, I In r: .I. .'Xyrn's. VII. Woods. II. Multony. ,I. Kink:-lu. Nlr, KIlllIll'l'IlllllI. II. Iivsnik.

Best Foot Forwardf, was ably pre- sented by the senior class of 1955. Under the capable supervision of Mrs. Zollars, faculty director, and Deanna Burchianti, student direc- tor, the comedy provided many a hearty laugh for the audience. With its setting at Winsocki Prep, the play centers around the student, Bud Hooper, who invites a movie star, Gayle Joy. to the senior prom. Complications evolving from her acceptance form the interesting plot. Special credit must be given to the Industrial Arts Club for their fine sets. and also to the make-up committee, band. stage hands, prompters. and ushers. Thanks to all these and to local merchants who lent properties, both the matinee and evening performances were successful. Two stars making ready for big debut. Mary Lou Chastulik on hall patrol. Student Council The student council is the organization which concerns itself with the welfare of the student body by triving to establish co-operation among students on the problems and questions that arise in the school. When difficult school problems occur the Student Council presents the students, opinions. Members of the Student Council are the presidents of each class and the presidents and vice-presidents of each home room. By popular vote these very capable members were chosen to serve as ofhcers for the year 1954-1955: president, Don Resnikg vice-president. Ronald Maltony: secretary-treasurer, Marlayna Farulli. Mr. Mervosh, acting as the council advisor, helped the members to make the year successful. The Student Council conducts no regular meet- ings. but the president or Mr. Mervosh may call a meeting at any time it is necessary. The Student Council has set up a hall patrol which is a system to lessen congestion in the halls during class changes and dismissals. Acting as hall patrol captains are Charles Abate and Janet Resnik. Hi-Lite The Hi-Lite is a monthly paper published by the journalism class and printed by the focal printing office. Students may subscribe to the paper at the beginning of the school year or buy it monthly. These sales. plus those of ads sold to local businessmen, sup- port the paper. The staff publishes two special editions each year-the Valentine and Commencement issues, which are eagerly anticipated by the student body. The material for these special editions is composed. typed. dittoed. run off. and assembled by the journalism class. Mrs. Harris is advisor of the Hi-Lite. The staff members are seniors who work hard to make the paper interesting to the students. The staff collects and writes the news. but Mrs. Harris has the Hnal say on what will be published. The Hi-Lite consists of four pages. The first page contains write-ups covering future events for the en- suing monthg page two is made up of the editorials, special events. and follow-ups of previous eventsg page three covers the athletic events of the schoolg page four pertains to features, anecdotes. and mis- cellaneous material. Each month a different page editor is selected. This gives each member of the staff the opportunity to learn how to gauge the size of articles and to fit them on the page. The staff of this yearis Hi-Lite is to be congratu- lated for their fine work. Page editors reading their own articles Three men enjoying records immensely. Lre The members of the Lyre Club, although small in number. are students who have shown exceptional ability in music or who are very much interested in it. These students present monthly programs featur- ing classical recordings which have been studied by some club member who then interprets the music to the club. Another type of club program is one that features the members of the Lyre Club themselves in either vocal or instrumental recitations. The club's projects for this year were to continue furnishing records for the school library and also to purchase a dolly for the school piano. The Lyre Club has always followed the tradition of having the most unusual dance of the school year and this year was no exception. A Gadget and Gim- mick Dance was held and prizes were awarded for the cleverest gadget and gimmick. One of the high spots of the cfub's social life every year is the annual Lyre Club picnic which is held at the end of the school term at Raccoon Creek State Park. The officers for the year were Jane Powell. presi- dentg Bill McCreight, vice-presidentg Thelma Cuiddy, seeretaryg Lee Tucci, treasurer. Under the guidance of its very capable sponsor, Mrs. Lowry. these officers succeeded in reaching the club's aim of having music understood and enjoyed by all of its members. 17 -CQ .fi P54 -gf ?iv..1E III I,I'I'Ii--R.

Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month. All meetings are conducted mainly in Spanish to make it educational as well as interesting and entertaining. All of the games that are played are conducted in Spanish. The club is divided into two classes with each class selecting its own ofiicers. A joint president is chosen from the two presidents with the other becoming the joint vice-president. The officers for the year were: President-Senor Cobleckg vice-president-Senorita Richey, secretary-treasurer- Senor Tucci. This year the club held its party on January- It invited the Latin Club. and each member of the Spanish Club was to bring a guest. The evening was spent in playing games and dancing. Spanish con- versations could be heard in various corners of the gym. The Spanish Club claims as its sponsor Senorita Russo, our new Spanish and Latin teacher. Although Senorita Russo is new at lfnion this year, she has made many friends. This year, as in other years, the boys and girls are finding Latin and Spanish difficult but fascinating subjects. Basketball receives careful scrutinizing from G. A. A. Pete and Carol admire Spanish shawl. G. A. A. The Girls' Athletic Association is composed of sophomore. junior, and senior girls who are interested in sports. Mrs. Beyer. physical education instructor, is the sponsor of this active club. The C. A. A. develops the girls' athletic ability and teaches them good sports- manship. The officers for this year are: President, Mildred Yaksicg Vice-president. Wiletta Reid, and Secretary- Treasurer. Betty Lou Borsos. The program committee is composed of Dixie Coulter, Elva Cain. Wiletta Reid, Mildred Yaksic, Betty Lou Borsos. Rose Marie Nice, and Shirlene Hicks. Each girl in the club received a jacket in the spring. The jackets are blue with a white basketball and a blue U. The C. A. A. held a dance October 22 after the Homestead football game. A special feature of the dance was a cakewalk. At the end of the school year a picnic was held at Raccoon Park for the club members. The C. A. A. has finished an active and successful year of work. Commercial The Commercial Club of our school has taken the job of giving further education to our prospective secretaries and stenographers in subjects not covered in the regular class. To become a member of this club, one must be a junior or senior student taking the commercial course. Under the direction of Miss Tiano, the club members discuss problems and answer questions concerning their future positions. At the monthly meetings pro- grams are planned in which Miss Tiano demonstrates the machines a secretary might be expected to use on her job. Good grooming and good manners are some of the personal problems discussed at the meetings. To solve any financial problems, the club sells gum and candy at wrestling and basketball activities in our gym. With the profits the club buys a pin for the highest commercial student and it also pays half the fee for the Today,s Secretary magazine used by the senior commercial students. In May a picnic was held at Oglebay Park. An affair of this nature is an annual event. OHicers were selected early in the year. They are: Mary Ann McKee, president, Catherine Daske, vice- presidentg and Donna Hagen, secretary-treasurer. By joining this club, the active members are sure to gain confidence and are assured the requirements for becoming tomorrow's secretaries and stenogra- phers. Librar The girls who work in the library, under the supervision of Miss Scott, have joined together to form a club. This club does not hold monthly meetings as most of the other clubs do, but holds them only when necessary. Their first meeting was held for the pur- pose of electing officers. The officers elected this year were: President, Deanna Burchiantig Vice-President, Rita Turkilyg and Secretary-Treasurer, Carole Maroni. The chief project of this club is the annual tea given for club members and the faculty. The tea for this year was held on December 16 in the library. The library was decorated in the Christmas spirit for this event, as it has been in previous years, with a big Christmas tree and colorful table appointments. The club selected committees to plan other activities later in the year. The assistant librarians help students when they are seeking information, or wish to use the library's vertical file. They help to solve many problems. They check books out and collect fines from overdue books. These fines are put into the library club treasury. With this treasury, new books are purchased. Under the direction of Miss Scott, we have one of the most up-to-date and informative libraries in the neighboring area. Students should use our library with great respect and care. We should truly be proud and appreciative of our library. Mathematics The Mathematics Club is a newly organized club sponsored by our amiable math teacher, Mr. Robertson. The club members are students from Mr. Robert:-ion's solid geometry and physics classes. At their first meeting the mathematicians elected Peter Gobleck president of the club. Also at this meet- ing they chose the following members to act as a board of directors: Peter Cobleck, Fred Crupe, Liberty Zabetakis, and Joe Haba. The club selected a theme for themselves, which is Mathematics for Funf' It was agreed upon by everyone that the club would not be a money-making organization. Because of this fact, they hold neither dances nor activities from which they might profit financially. However, members wanted to purchase an ad in the U. In order to raise the money for this, they planned a contest for the student body. Each member submitted two mathematical oddities. Then the board selected the best of all these and composed a test. The tests were sold at ten cents each to the student body who were to work the problems to the best of their ability. The person who had the most correct answers was awarded a free year book. The purpose of the club is to give the students a fuller, broader interpretation and a greater enjoyment of mathematics. 12031 Nl Iililll -XI. ifI.lYH 1 un. H. Nlulnja-xl-'I1. lf. 2.

Mr. Kimberland is assisted by his wife Virginia. The students who gave their free time to work at the stand this year were: Jean Bender. Carol Melvin, Shirley Griffith, Dolores Ve a, Darla Cunningham, Elizabeth Karas, Martha Karas,T'luberta Dalverny, JoAnn LaRocka, Kath Welsh, James Malone, Larry Griffith, Martin Grif- fith, ,iiohn Nice, Stanley Esno, Ronald Rudy, and James Kimberland. Their reward is free admission to the games. At half time the stand was literally swamped with customers, trying to warm up a little by drinking hot coffee with hot dogs. The students served them quickly and efficiently. Some of the boys, such as Stanley Esno, Ronald Rudy and Martin Griffith, went through the bleachers selling candy bars, peanuts, and potato chips to those who were too absorbed in the game to go to the refreshment stand. With the splendid cooperation the students gave Mr. Kimberland and his wife at the refreshment stand, they profited financially and had a lot of fun besides. The stu- dents worked together as a group very successfully. The football fans should appreciate the courtesies given them at the refreshment stand. We hope that the refreshment stand committee will do as well in the years to come. Industrial Arts Experience is an attribute which is acquired only by actually doing. This the members of the Industrial Arts Club well know. The primary purpose of the club is construction. Meetings are held once a month at the shop, where members use the machines and necessary equipment. Mr. Sauter is the club's able advisor and instructor. The largest project of the year is the building and ar- ranging of sets for the junior and senior plays. Many repair jobs to be done at the school are undertaken by these boys. ln addition to these tasks, the boys have projects of their own, large and small, on which they work during their spare time. The importance of proper care of machinery is highly emphasized by Mr. Sauter. The beginners are taught the proper use of the equipment, and they must have a basic understanding of its construction and parts before begin- ning their work. From instruction given by Mr. Sauter the boys are able to reco nize any irregularity in the machines and to repair it skiliully and immediately. This know- ledge will enable them to do efficiently necessary repair work which will undoubtedly arise in later ears. This club benefits both its individualimembers and the school. It gives the members a better understanding of the different trades which are listed under the fields of metals and wood. It, also helps the school to keep up with repair jobs and projects. Model Airplane The Model Airplane club is an organization headed by Mr. Lon evitsh, who takes an active interest in design- ing and budding model airplanes. Though the club was on y started last year it has made considerable progress. At one of their first meetings the members elected these officers: Flo d Thomas, presidentg Bob S iotta, vice-presi- dentg Reno lgiOrio, secretary, and Frank gedlak, treasurer. The members are divided into two roups. One group meets the first lperiod every daiy anrf the second grou meets the eight period of the ay. The boys are also divided into groups according to their ability in fiying their model planes. Each boy pays for the models that he builds. Any funds that the club has are spent for contests and materials that are needed. The club serves as a useful pastime for the members and Mr. Longevitsh. While they are enjoying their hobby, they are also learning many important and interesting facts about planes and aviation. The boys work hard during the winter when they are making their planes and preparing for their spring con- tests. hey look forward to t e contests with great anti- cipation for that is when they get a chance to display their planes and their flying techniques leamed during the year.

Miss Russo, has had a very active, .in- tcresting, and progressive year. The officers forthe 1954- 55 year were: Phoebe Suica, presidentg Joe Haba, vice- president, and Adrienne Kriss, secretary-treasurer. During the second semester, the club made a trip to the Buhl Planetarium to view many of the interesting Latin exhibits. Almost everyone noticed the lovely Nativity scene on display in our front hall during the Christmas season, it drew many comments. This project was set up by several members ofthe Latin Club. Musical The trio was composed of Jane Powell, the only member remaining from past years. and Carol Maroni and Ann Miller, both new members to the trio. This group presents many last-minute programs. They have enter- tained clubs in the Burgettstown area and out-lying towns. The girls manage to maintain good scholastic averages despite their heavy musical schedule which must be pre- pared during the one period a week that is provided them. Accompanists this year were Barbara Roberts, lane Powell. and Patricia Lesko. They had a most difficult task in the music department as they were called upon for solos, and to accompany the girl's chorus. ensemble, trio, duets, and vocal soloists. They sight-read music and inter- preted correctly the everyday choral selections. Each ac- companist had a background of at least eight years of pri- 66 Because the boys and girls who take Latin are ex- tremely interested in mythology, they devote some of their club periods to the study of early mytholo y. As entertain- ment during some of their club periojs they adapted modern games into Latin and had fun playing them. Some of the games they adapted were Scrabble, Twenty Ques- tions, and Where Am l Going. The club worked on a Latin mythology play, Cupid and Psyche, which they trans- lated and rewrote for a modern audience so that everyone at Union could enjoy it. Another of the Latin Club's many projects this year was making crossword puzzles in Latin. Groups vate lessons and experience. In addition to playing for the school, each one was active in community affairs. The girls' ensemble is a specialized group composed of Sally Loffert, Glenda Holland, ,lane Powell, Rosemary Nice, Kathy Culley. Nell Moore, Carol Maroni, Ruth Lander, Miriam Cassidy, Theresa Moore. Gayle Remmert, and Ann Miller. Their preparations were made on their own time. ' They did outstanding work in major programs for the Friday Club, Lions Club, their annual school Christmas program, and the Spring Concert. Two members, ,lane Powell and Carol Maroni, were representatives to District Chorus in February at Moon Township High School. Farulli, J. Haha. Miss Rus- Hvizdos, S. Savage. R. 3. A Scott, D.

Football With nineteen lettermen returning from last year, the Union High football squad reported for their first practice on Au ust 18. The boys were under the gluidance of Mr. Bogdan Nicksick, assisted b two capa le new coaches, Mr. Pa- trick McGraw and Nflr. Jack Shearson. Mr. Nicksick has been head coach for four years. Mr. McGraw has com- pleted his second year of coaching and Mr. Shearson did a very fine job of coaching for the first time. Union's record for this year was five wins and four losses. The defeated Cecil, Waynesburg, Chester, Cali- fomia, and West Allegheny. Our Blue Devils started out very well by taking over Cecil 39-0. Our second and third games against our op- ponents Waynesburg and Chester showed a struggle to re- Coaches Shearson, Nicksick, and McGraw. Richard Mihalik, Joe Pendeville, Robert Petrcl, John Sabo, Ted Witcher and John Cummins, George Saxton. and John Clair, managers. Under the training of Jack Shearson, our junior high football squad, completed the year with a good average. These boys were first taught the fundamentals of football, and then were sent out to show how well they were able to put their learning into use. They didnit disappoint us for they ended up at the close of the season with an outcome of four wins and two losses. Their co-operation. initiative, and willingness to play the game were soon revealed. Much credit oes to Coach Shearson for his fine coachin this year. ltfr. Shearson is a teacher at the Atlasburg grade School. Though this is his first year of coaching, he did ceive the winning position with the scores of 27-0 and 38-13 respectively. Belmar defeated the Union Blue Dev- ils, but they stepped right up with two victories against California. 33-12 and West Allegheny 20-6. The remain- ing games played were followed with losses: Homestead 8-13, Trinity 0-7 and Canonsburg 6-21. Nevertheless, our boys put on a good showing this year. One of the Varsity squad, onnie Maltony, a junior at Union, was selected by the WPIAL for honorable men- tion. The following boys received letters this year: Charles Friday, Henry Ross, Mike Clobosky, John Kinkela, Bob Mayer, Henry McClements, Donald Resnik, Bill Roberts, George Rollage, Steve Shearson.

The Blue Devils tied Trinity for last placeg Trinity had a record of 2 wins and 10 losses. No doubt the reason for such a poor showing this year was due to the fact that the Varsity consisted of such a small group of boys. The hi h scorer for the courtmen this year was Charles Fridge , who scored a total of 370 points or ap- proximately 17ypoints per game which breaks Dan Calan s record of 325. It seemed that when the opponents stopped Frida , they stopped the team. This year's record was one of the poorest records of the Blue Devils. Coach Nicksick was highl disa pointed with the team. Possibly the trouble lies with the ans who seldom tum out to support the team. This year, under the watchful eyes of Coach George Tony, the freshmen showed what the B Squad will look like next year. The freshmen are all fighters and may very likely tum out some fine basketball players who will even- tually make the Varsity of 1958. This group practices every day after the Varsity quits their practice. The B-Squad had a rather poor season. The won only the tirst and last games of the season. A few oly these boys, though, are ready for next ear's Varsity. With some careful uidance, they will probably be a good team for the 195.556 season. Go out next year and try even harder, boys! We're with you all the way. VARSITY RECORD Union ..... .... 34 Clark ....... Union .... 52 Midway ...... Union .... .... 3 7 Bridgeville . . Union ..... .... 36 Cecil ........

Mr. lS11l1y11k. 76 Fred Dalverny Mike DiBacco Joseph Obozek John Przenkop John Sanders Robert Vega Wrestling This year was the best showing the matmen have made since wrestling was first introduced at Union. The experience, the long, hard work. and the fine coaching of Mr. Babyak paid off at last. These boys had a very excel- lent record of nine wins and four losses. Having the best individual records this year were: Frank Sedlak, Richard Bongiorni, Robert Marshal, and Ronald Maltony. Marshal and Bongiorni had the best re- cords with no losses at all. The team. after winning the first five matches in a row. suffered its first two defeats to Chartiers and Canons- burg. After a few open dates. the team went on to win the next three matches. Then the matmen suffered their third VARSITY RECORD loss to Canonsburg. The team went to Washington for the fourth and fifth matches to compete for WPIAL honors. Because ofthe team's fine matches. the fans in the surrounding community turned out in large numbers to show their appreciation to the boysg and the boys, in turn, fought even harder to win. With only three seniors on the team. Union's pros- pects for a successful 1956 season are good. With the re- turning of Maltony in the heavy weight class. the fans are sure to see many more exciting matches. We are proud of these boys because they worked hard to present Union High School with a winning team and gave their time for our enjoyment. Union Washington B. . Union Trinity .......

Besides performing at halftime, they brought their talents to parades and to Kennywood where the band competed in the Tournament of Music Contest. They oflieially started the season at the football sta- dium with the half-time exhibition entitled Old Mae- Donald's Horse. The majorettes had an appropriate routine, in which they wore their farmer hats and did a dance to Old MacDonald. Among their many other fine routines was a Salute to Sousa in which the majorettes twirled red. white, and blue pom-poms to Stars and Stripes Forever and joined the band in performing other formations. Another well-done show to which the majoret- tes added their twirling ability was The Life of an Ameri- can Girlf' They did an excellent dance routine to Moon- light Bay. Some ofthe majorettes added a lovely touch to the performances by doing cart wheels, splits, and acro- batics. They strutted onto the field with a new snappy step. The last game was a sad one for the three seniors - Marian Teneglia, a very capable head. Marlene Blue and Patsy Wilson. Those girls returning to the squad next year are Maculette Bongiorni, Glenda Holland, Rosalie Schilinski, and Rose Bongiorni. The senior majorettes would like to wish luck and success to all of the 1955 majorettes. heerleaders Under the head cheerleader. Daryle Webster, the cheerleaders had a successful year with the varsity squad handling all the pep meetings. The varsity cheerleaders who kept the school spirit high during the football games were: Daryle Webster, Wilma Senezyszyn. Janet Resnik, Donna Mika. and Doris Baker. The xarsity with the help of the B-squad. had a pep rally the night before the Homestead Game. There was a bonfire at the field followed by a snake dance which ended at the high school. The cheerleaders are sponsored by Miss Schafer, who accepted this task just this year. She herself was a cheerleader at California State Teachers College and helped the girls with many of their new cheers. The cheer- leaders practiced the eighth period. During basketball and wrestling seasons the squads were divided into two groups. The girls were iven their choice as to which sport they wanted to follow.gl'hose who cheered basketball were: Donna Mika, Janet Resnik, Doris Baker, Patty Plate, Mary Jane Richey, and Deanna Berto- vich. Those cheering wrestling were Daryle Webster, Wilma Senczyszyn, Marlayna Farulli, Norma Mancinelli, Carol Mis, Sue Figley, Donna Delamontagne. Roberta Robinson and Stephanie Mis. There were six girls who cheered at each game. The junior high cheerleaders alternated for wrestling. The cheerleaders were pleased with the spirit that was shown at the games. ,N A v is 4 y +2 .ww , A KL, miallfg '99 .3gx,ig.Qi,.:h.:wk vs, af?
