LEADERS ALL-Mr. Burns was guest also at a dinner honoring WD student Bob Grandy. Speaker was Sargent Shriver, Peace Corps head. 1966 Coalagr Dedicated To Mr. Burns on His Retirement The dedication of one's life to be responsible for the development and training of the minds of youth ranks truly as a task so ennobling as to be virtually an endow- ment from the Creator Himself. Through the years it became obviously evident that this underlying thought and philosophy was motivating the educational diligence and determination of William E. Burns, as a teacher, as a principal, as a superintendent. To Mr. Burns, service in the teaching profession was a calling.,' This to him meant giving totally of yourself, of your time, of your tireless effort. To him the profes- instead, where you counted individual achievement at- tained, opportunities made available, happy, successful lives made possible, and the cherished democratic way of life made workable. It is with particular pride that The Coalagra extends the dedication of this 1966 edition to Mr. Burns . . . the first principal of West Deer High School, and the first in the hearts of those in the school district where he has served and the community where he has lived. FOR DISTINGUISHED SERVICE-School Board member Louis Castello commends the service of Mr. Burns to the school district dur- ing presentation of a Certificate of Appreciation to Mr. Burns for his 37 years in the education profession. 4 Wal lem 74. ..

Schuster Junior High School Principal Amid the administration ranks, the West Deer School District began taking on a new look during the 1965-66 school term. At the beginning of the year, a veteran West Deer educator, Mrs. Angeline Schuster, was named to the new position of Junior High principal. She ranks among the relatively few women leaders in education who serve as principals in the secondary level. But all in the dis- trict, particularly her 460 Junior High pupils at the Annex, were unanimous in agreeing it couldn't have been a better choice. In the fall, William Palmer was elected by the citizens of West Deer to serve as a member of the Board of Education. Mr. Palmer became the third graduate of West Deer High School to receive that honor. Of course, the big news in the spring was the resignation of William E. Burns as superintendent. In June, the Board of Education named Dr. Edgar J. Holtz, formerly with the Gateway School Dis- trict, to the momentous, decision-making position. There also was some revamping in the Guidance Department when Anthony Marsico was appointed to the new posi- tion of administrator of special federal services. His post of Senior High guid- ance counselor went to James Marsili, another West Deer teacher with many years of classroom experience. Anthony F. Marsico Administrator of Special Services James S. Marsili Administration Daniel A. Angeloni Senior High Guidance Counselor Junior High Guidance Counselor 23 Faculty New Milestones Reached By Veteran Faculty Members Milestones reached, new faces on the staff, and tours to foreign countries made up some of the top faculty news of the year. Among teaching anniversaries observed included the 30 years in the business for Mr. Monnier, one of the deans of the WD teaching staff. Only other WD teachers with more than 30 years of service are Mrs. Girdwood, with 36, and Mrs. Cunningham, with 33. Reaching the 20-year mark were such behind-the-desk stalwarts as Mr. Antonelli, Mr. Graff, and Mr. Powers. Others with over 20 year records are Miss Jarema, Mrs. Piazza, and Mr. Sipes. New personalities in faculty row this year included Mr. Ahearn, Mrs. Dahlstedt, Miss Connelly, Mr. Mann, Mr. Beno, Mr. Crawford, Miss Kelly, and Miss Smerdell. End of year news brought word that at least two mem- bers of the staff,were planning study and tour trips to foreign countries. Mrs. Williams left for her year in Eu- rope in June. Mr. Graff worked up a six-country summer 'aunt. J On the social side, West Deer teachers promoted staff fellowship with an outdoor cookout in the fall at the John Graff residence, a farewell banquet at the Skyliner for Mr. Burns, not to mention other independent get-to- gethers such as the male faculty members' annual re- union and Awards Day program at North Park. Earning their good-conduct ribbons for handling the major extra-curricular chores of the year were Mr. Vit- kay, who guided the Juniors through numerous activities, including the auction and prom, in meritorious fashion, and Mr. Whartenby, who Nvolunteeredi' for the Senior sponsor position. A revision in the ranks occurred during mid-year when Mr. Marsico was appointed administrator of special federal services. Elevated to senior guidance counselor was Mr. Marsili. THOMAS E.

This aptly describes the Marching Braves of 1965-66. Although limited in number, all 50 of the band mem- bers were top quality musicians who worked to their ability in making the West Deer band rank with the best. The year commenced with a week of summer practice at school, instead of the regular band camp. After this, the difficult formations, routines, and production numbers were a breeze. The marching band performed at all half-time football shows, parades, and the Alle-Kiski Band Festival. The concert band presented a Winter Music Concert and par- ticipated in the Spring Arts Festival. Outstanding members from this group chosen to par- ticipate in the Allegheny Honors Band were Roy Drum, Sundee Kelly, Ruth Morgan, Terry Schreiber, Ed Lewe- tag, Randy Hromika, and Jeif Pompe. Roy Drum also was chosen for District and State Honors Bands, as well as being elected by his fellow bandmembers to receive the Arion Best Musician of the Year Award. A great year, attributed to the hard work of director Mr. Mauroni, along with the ever-helpful Band Boosters, concluded with the annual year-end Band Banquet festi- vities.

All down the line, this turned out to be a particularly busy school term for the groups, their officers and members, and for their faculty ad- visers who gave much of their time to be of aid to the students. The Future Homemakers marked another active year. Highlights in- cluded the formal initiation, fashion 'show, Christmas party for the elderly at Dorseyville Home for Aged, and orientation program for Junior High. The Future Nurses held their an- nual Easter party for the children at St. Anthonyis School for Exceptional Children. They also visited a hospital, as well as taking part in a swimming party with nurses at Citizens Hospital The Future Teachers will recall their enjoyable trip to Westminster College. Also memorable was a club meeting which featured Diana Feo, a foreign exchange student from Venezuela, who discussed schools in her country. , Bringing more recognition again to lWest Dear High this year were the members of the Industrial Arts and Art Clubs. Members of both groups recorded an endless list of First Prize- to-Honorable Mention awards dur- ing several county-Wide contests. The Art Club also was responsible for the impressive Spring Arts Festival, as well as the beautiful oil painted panoramic woods and water mural presented to the Junior High School. Singular honors were won by Pat Garbos when his entry in the TB Poster Contest won top prize. His poster was re-printed and appeared in every bus and other locations throughout the state. The Student Councils concentrated on service projects. The senior council again conducted the Tiny Tim Christ- mas food drive. The Junior High Student Council, a new group at WD, marked its charter year with an ex- tremely active agenda. One of their main events of the year was taking part in the orientation day held for 6th Graders during the last week of school. The group also promoted the sale of West Deer's own maroon and white notebooks. The annual trip to the Key Club convention in Philadelphia was the high point for this boys' leaders group. Funds for the trip were raised by holding a fun-filled pancake din- ner. ,AZ Clubs ART CLUB-Seated: Char- maine Miller, secretary.

The two were instrumental in promoting a larger, more vigorous student newspaper which this year published 15 record editions, including the much heralded 30-page end of year Senior Edition. Backing up the staff and aiding the editors in cracking the whip over the overworked'i writers around deadline time was Mrs. Sandler, the faculty adviser. All the familiar columns and features made their ap- pearance in this year's Antler, including the know-all- see-all-tell-all Zooper Snooper. End of year recognition was numerous for Antler staff members, topped by the Hess Memorial Journalism Award won by Pat Kondrak and the Valley Daily News Most Valuable Statler plaque presented to Peg Jacob.

The event was the all-girls 'tPowder Putin football game. Dressed in full gridiron battle attire, 34 spry and spunky Junior girls experienced the hard work, the aches and pains, and the fired-up desire to win that their boy counterparts undergo during the regular season. Star of the evening turned out to be Adriann Hazlett, the dazzling, shifty supersonic Speedster of the Heavenis Devils' team. Sparked by the brilliant blocking of her teammates, Adrian romped to two touchdowns, the only touchdowns scored in the game. Although held scoreless, the Holy Terrors produced some crowd pleasing strategy executed around such pig- skin notables as Bonnie Graif, Debbie Shurina, and Marita Marsili.

For the first time in the school's history, the Braves sustained a winless record, 0-9. But what was even more i heartbreaking, and at times frustrating, was that over half those games were lost by a one-touchdown margin or less, several times during the last few minutes of a game. Nevertheless, the highlights of the season were numer- ous. Perhaps the most electrifying was Bill Smith's sen- sational 87-yard run for touchdown at the Richland game. In that one, Bill took a kickoff on the 13, gathered momentum by streaking toward the middle area, picked up key blocks, stiff-armed three would-be tacklers, outran six more, and was off all the way for the six-pointer with the West Deer crowd in an elated state of pandemonium. Then there was the game at Freeport, where the Yellow Jackets were having their way rather readily - until the Braves came to life in the last quarter. With a third down and six yards for a first down, West Deer pulled what was considered the outstanding play of the night. Quarterback Bob Field took the snap, flipped off to Jeff Hubbs, who handed to Wynn Kenyon, who tucked it back to Field. Bob then heaved a beautiful 45-yard aerial to junior Den Burchell on Freeportis 10-yard line. Two plays later, fullback Carl Angeloff scored by hammering nine yards for the TD. Another thriller was the Arnold game. Here the Braves came very close to either winning or tying the game. It happened when Ozzie Kenyon hooked on to a long pass tossed by quarterback Ray Navarro. Ozzie went over to score the touchdown - but it was called back because of an offsides penalty. The miscue ruined the Braves' attempt at victory, and the score ended 13-6 in favor of the Lions. Although there were no big names for the year, Coach Whartenby expressed his satisfaction with the type of boy who played on the squad. They were the greatest in my books, Whartenby stated. One gridder, Gary Bonigovanni, gained recognition 1 4 for the team by being named to the News-Dispatch All- Star squad.

Trying for their third section title in four years, West Deer's basketball team came about as close as anyone could to performing that feat. However, by losing two games, one to the eventual section winner Oakmont by a 68-62 score and the other an upset by Millvale, 80-79, the Braves saw the section championship flag just elude them by as close as a gnatis eyelash. Ironically, the local cagers dumped both of the above teams later in the season by comfortable margins - but the damage had already been done. Over-all, the Braves posted a record of 14 wins and 6 defeats, an even better record than last year's 13-7 which won them the Section 19-B crown. Leading the olfensive barrage again this season was Gary Bongiovanni, last year's record setter. Gary blasted away for 390 markers this campaign, ranking him among the top five highest basketball scorers in West Deer High FAKE T0 FANG, AND-Coach Marsili reviews strategy in his own inimitable fashion during an im- portant mid-game time-out. history. Gary still holds the most points for one game record t45, against Apolloj which he registered last year. Runner-up in scoring was Gary Zock, who tossed in 254. He's expected to be one of the main-stays on the '66-67 team. Noteworthy, too, was the fact that this season marked the finale for the most successful coach West Deer High has ever had - James Marsili. In order to devote full time to his senior guidance counseloris duties, Mr. Marsili retired from basketball coaching at the end of the season. During his eight years as head basketball coach, Mr. Marsili's teams won two section championships, one of the teams advancing all the way to the semi-finals. Also during those eight years, West Deer teams under the tutelage of Coach Marsili registered a grand total of 104 victories.

That, the question that remains unresolved for the West Dee baseball team as they did just about everything in th books this season but still came out just a shade secon best. For the second straight year Coach Vitkayls star- studded squad ended the regular season in a tie with North Hills, although the Braves had trounced that team twice during the season, 12-1 and 5-0. However, in that all important do-or-die play-off clash, the North Hills cashe in with a 5-1 triumph over West Deer and the sectio crown for the second consecutive year in the same manner. Nevertheless, all around, it was a sterling season for the locals who displayed some of the best brand of baseball ever played on the WD diamond. High Points, of course, were the not one but two no-hit- no-run games hurled by Tom Rush. Also consistently strong on the mound again was Lonnie Stock, who was credited with five of the year's 10 pitching victories. Lon- nie struck-out 61 opponents in the seven ballgames in which he appeared. Top batting average of the year also went to Lonniel 17 hits during the 39 times at bat for a .435 rating. Paul Zalus and Wynn Kenyon were right behind with averages of .379 and .350 respectively. , In all, the Braves won 10 games during the season and lost three. They tallied a total of 89 runs, while op- ponents were limited to a mere 27. Three home runs were hit during the season, by Stock, Zalus, and Gary Bongiovanni.

Both Juniors and Seniors Triumph in Comedy Stage Hits A hillbilly weddin' solemnized, shot guns 'a blastin', and a lurking phantom were part of the sights and sounds of the successful Junior and Senior Class plays performed on the WD stage this term. The Junior selection was the hilarious comedy Hill- billy Weddin, directed by Mr. Vitkay, while the Seniors displayed their thespian versatility in Phantom of the High School, directed by Mrs. Williams. Incidentally, the two productions marked the last ever to be held on West Deer's faithful old gym stage. After some 23 years of service, the stage was dismantled at the end of the school term in favor of a new portable stage. In Hillbilly Weddin', Ma CDiane Oselej and Pa CFrank Bibrij used every possible method, and some im- possible ones, to find someone to marry up with their lovely CD daughter Cielie CMarty Kuhnsj. That's where it all began. The dirtiest girl in the Belsnicle brood finally took a bath and caught her man, Obey CJim Borczykj. On a more subtle side of life, the Senior Play featured a teen-ager swinger, Mindy, CLinda Craigheadj with a way-off imagination. Her school is presenting its centennial celebration, featuring the phantom legend of their com- munity. But a strange event occurs, another phantom ap- pears and upsets the entire organization of Miss Benson CFrances Bzorekj, ancestor of the founding fathers. No one will believe Mindy about the mysterious phan- tom, not even Ron CDan Wernerj, Mindy's heart-throb. After a bit of detective work by young Randolph Cfeaturing Sandy Lettrichlj, the principal's son, the true villain is finally unveiled and the identity of the treacherous phan- tom Ueanie Smithj is revealed.

Senior Court Seniors Pick Linda Craighea ueen of The Class of 1966 Whether it is Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss America, or Miss Junior Miss, there's still one queen that tops them all - and that is our very own Queen of the Senior Class. This year, the highly cherished honors were be- stowed by her classmates on pretty Linda Craighead. Her attendants, all senior charmers, included Rose- ann Pazak, Patty Zebracki, Joan Fryer, and Geral- dine Cieszynski. The girls were the choices of their classmates on the basis of charm, poise, scholarship, friendliness, and leadership. Of course, the same basis of selection was utilized for the male counterparts of the court who served as escorts. Those chosen as most outstanding boys of the class were Carl Angeloif, Mike Gaston, Gary Sobotka, and Bob Grandy, along with Wynn Kenyon, the class president. The Queenls Court made its impressive appearance during the annual crowning ceremonies conducted as part of Awards and Move-up Day. Other girls winning the title of Queen during the year included Joan Fryer, JayCee Queen, Geneva Pittman, Queen of Sports, Gloria Jean Smith, Home- coming Queen, and Janice Ordakowski, Queen of the Prom.

'6And you're even more stunning, Mary! This typical prom night exchange of greeting occurred at some 120 homes in West Deer Township on June 8, 1966 - Prom night. Now let's follow John and Mary for the rest of the biggest social evening of the year. Because theylre doubling, they have to go through the usual snapshots and doting parents, exclamations before they can whisk off the family car, polished all afternoon with a super-special shine it hasn't had since it was manu- factured. Their arrival at the Holiday Inn is at six, where a full-course dinner is served. Next for dancing is the in-orbit music of Ronnie Frederick's Orchestra which kept the dance floor crowded until 11. During intermission came the highly awaited selection of the Prom Queen. The choice of the Prom goers was: Janice Ordakowski, for Queen, along with Donna Szymanski and Bonnie Graff as attendants. A visit to the outdoor patio surrounding the pool also attracted many of the prom goers. Many couples were seated at the umbrella-ed tables, while others walked around the pool and enjoyed the scenic landscaping. Then came the quick trip back to the high school for the now traditional Post-Prom Party. Gosh, the Junior Class committee sure did a nice job in decoratingf' Mary and John weren't the only ones to exclaim these words as the couples poured into the gym, decorated in palace-like fashion to the theme of Fan- tasiaf' For entertainment, famed magician, Harry Albacker, had everyone convulsing with laughter at his humorous routines. Who will forget Tom Simonetti having his palm red ? Or the shock everyone got when Bill Smith hit the target for a change? Buffet refreshments were served throughout the night by hard-working Junior mothers who managed to sur- vive the entire evening. Oh John, do go up and be hypnotized! It's so funny! These were the darin remarks of several Marys who 'tvolunteeredn their escorts for Prof. Richard Heazely's Inn. More than 150 couples attended the year's big social event sponsored annually by the West Deer Juniors. -I 'W'f ' -' ' 'si 7 , few f 1 w me Wzfvhinnx H --we ..sm..,..wQq:..-if-e -Mu . zwtzfsifm, n r'eir4w!!wmm tm Becomes Night to Remember nnual voyage to the realm of deep trance.

This was followed by a musical program featuring careers After this, everyone enjoyed dancing to the sounds of the Mods, a popular West Deer combo made up of members of the Junior Class. The Senior Picnic once again was held in North Park, where all the class members really let go into some end-of- year fun and games. Feature for the boys was a session of buckety-buck,', led by Mr. Whartenby, while the girls prided themselves in attempting to construct human py- ramids. The Senior Queen, Linda Craighead, and her court made their ceremonious debut during the annual Awards Day celebration. The program that day concluded with the seniors singing their official class song, Those Wondrous Days. On the serious side, the finale truly came for the Class of '66 at baccalaureate services and graduation exercises. One of the most inspiring addresses of its kind ever presented to a West Deer graduating class was delivered by the Rev. Dr. Richard Kennedy, pastor of East Union United Presbyterian Church.

School followers remember that everyone literally froze luring the 1964 outdoor ceremonies.

However, maybe it's because he members of the Class of '66 just live right, or other- rise CD, but the weather turned out to be about the most erfect ever experienced for this program. On that somewhat crisp June 1 evening, 15 8 seniors iarched onto the field to the tune of 'gPomp and Circum- tancel' to receive their hard-earned, long-awaited diplo- ras.
