D. Wilson. Dr. 'Wilson's regime with the West Allegheny Joint Schools encompasses the significant events and changes brought about by the jointure of North Fayette, Findlay, and Oakdale in the first six difficult and trying years. However, his tenure is far more reaching. He had been at the helm of the Findlay Schools since 1929 and has made his influence felt by the school, the citizens, the students, and the community for three decades. During the years he has served the district, Dr. Wilson has introduced many products ofhis thought and experimentation into the school. However, the unknown and unreported influences of Dr. Wilson on the lives of West Allegheny students in thirty years will never be recounted. As Henry Adams said, i A teacher affects eternityg he can never tell where his influence stays. Dr. Wilson, as he is remembered, working at his desk as Supervising Principal of the West Allegheny joint Schools. On October 20, 1955 the West Allegheny Edu- cation Association honored Dr. Wilson on his retirement with a testimonial dinner and recep- tion. Present at the affair were many of the teachers who had been associated with Dr. Wilson, many other educators of the area and many lifelong friends and acquaintances that Dr. Wilson had made in his many fruitful years of association in the field of education. Honored guests at the dinner with Dr. Wilson were Mrs. Wilson, ta member of the faculty of the junior High School, and other members of his family. u nzilziizffcufioiz We remember the pleased expressions of teachers when dismissal cameg the glowering pressions when assignments were forgotteng innumerable days of retribution with te grades, report cards. .... the CX' the sts, .giulbetuiaing fpfcirzailbal Mr. Vernon C.

It was in 1950 that the 180 members which were to compose the Class of 1956 first joined together in the seventh grade. Since they joined together, they have shown their initiative and ingenuity in the various projects they have undertaken. Of the 180 members that had been in seventh grade together, only 170 graduated and proceeded on to the senior high school. Shortly after entering the senior high in 1953, they pitched industriously into the task of making plans for the annual Soph Hop which was held in November. After the Soph Hop, the class quieted down until they were in their junior year. Then they vetoed the traditional class jackets and class sweaters. For the junior class play they chose Three Fingers in the Door. This play proved to be a -success as did their prom which was held in May and which featured a Paris Cafe as the theme. The senior class play, Mother Is A Freshman , was the most profitable play to be presented in the hi story of W. A. The Class of 56 showed their initiative when they decided to have a choral reading at their commencement instead of giving the customary speeches. Again being different the class took a trip to Washington D. C. and New York City. The final gesture of the remaining 121 members of the Class of SG was commence- ment - May 23. clan Aijbonaofu 'x -wi?

Mother Is A Freshman, the Senior Class Play was presented Friday evening, November 18. The play was a story of a mother, played by Nila Worrell and a. daughter, Janis Gloff, who attended the same college. They were both in love with the zoology professor, Chuck Stewart. First it was Nila,,then Janis, but finally Mother won out with the professor. The cast included a group of fun loving college students. This added much flavor to the plot of the play. Under the direction of Miss Conley, Mother Is A Freshman was the most financially successful senior class play ever performed. Q The poor old lady, all alone. Mrs. Abigail Abbot . . . . . .

Mr. Grega was given the tedious task of rebuilding the fallen grid forces of W. A. The coach proved to be a good man for the job, but to the astonishment of many people he proved not to be a magician and though his relatively green team progressed steadily through the season they were only able to produce a 1- 7' l record.
