Once again a new school year rolls around and along with new schedules, new textbooks and new teachers, comes the need for a new yearbook staff to compile the annual. A competent and eager group met in room 208 one Tues- day afternoon in September, and the l944 Westvian was born. A stop was brought, then and there, to the unorganized havoc which shook room 208 from stem to stern during that first meeting. Mr. Mugnani and Mr. l-lolmok, our spon- sors, took a firm hand, and then our work began. Stuart Savage CStu to youl took his place as Editor-in-Chief and began the long tedious job of bringing into reality the staf'f's dream of the best yearbook produced in West View. Robert Mertz was put in charge of all the nouns, verbs and adjectives, and he has proved to be one of the best Literary Editors any Westvian has ever had. Howard Canning took over the counting of the pennies, and his efficient job as Business Manager can't be overlooked. Class activities were assigned to janet Ealck, and she proved only too well that the life of an Activities Editor isn't the bed of roses it's made out to be. The camera fiends were under Herman Ulrich's jurisdiction, and many an unsuspecting teacher and student fell victim to that alert and ever-seeing Ulrich camera. lim Cummings was given full control of the paint and brushes. As Art Editor, we can't thank him enough for the many fine sketches our yearbook has to offer. He had a competent staff in Dolly MacDonald and Betty Pohrer. Their ef-forts speak for themselves. Lois Klingler was elected Secretary and kept notes on just what happened in and out of the meetings. The Westvian Staff put on numerous activities to promote their financial interests. The one that seemed to cause the most anxiety was the Sadie Haw- kin's Dance on October 29. West View girls were on the loose, and the boys literally took to the hills. lt was a huge success, though, and will go down in West View High School's social history. The crowning of the May Queen comes under the Westvian's supervision also. The whole staff went all out to make The Wostvian - 2 it one of the most beautitul and memorable events ot the year. From the moment when this year's Queen ot May came down the tlower-bestrewed aisle to her awaiting throne and crown to the last dance of Her Majesty's Ball, the statt can look with pride upon a job well done. Another year draws to a close and as the Class ot '44 leave their Alma Mater, we sincerely wish them the best ot everything in the world ot tomorrow. We hope that the following pages will capture torever the thrills, the happiness, the heartbreaks, the mischievous tun, and the glorious experiences that West View High School has brought them.

The Westvian - 3 .ynlfroafzfacfzfon The Staff of 1944 proudly presents the Sixth Edition of the West View High School Annual- The Westvian. In it is recorded an- other chapter of the history of West View, a chapter lived by the Class of 1944. It is the story of your school life, and you are part of it. The publication of the 1944 Westvian was no easy task. We were told last year that we had seen the last war-time yearbook. We refused to accept the many curtailments necessitated by the war as insurmountable barriers. From the outset we worked with the hope of producing a book that would entirely meet with your approval. The first major problem was the selection of a theme. In appeal- ing to the Class for suggestions, we found that there was little desire for a military theme. West View students were well enough aware of the reality of war and did not need to be reminded of it. How- ever, we have not forgotten West View's part in the warg we bore that in mind in our dedication. For our theme, we finally rallied around the Totem of West View and selected our school emblem, The Indian. We think of the unconquerable spirit of the Indian war- rior as symbolic of the West View Spirit of '44. loin with The Indian, then, for we are on the trail. The Westvicm - 4 .5-Zbeaficalfion ln past years the dedication of the Westvian has been solely the respon- sibility of the staff. This year we thought that the Class as a whole should share in this important undertaking. With this thought in mind, every member of the Class was polled on the matter of the dedication. Almost invariably there was the same reaction. lt was unanimously believed that it would be most appropriate to remember the graduates of West View who had left the school and community to join the armed forces. VV' e need not speak of the accomplishments of these men and women. They are self-evident. Suffice it to say that the heritage of West View High School is being nobly enriched by each of them. To the men and women of West View High School now fighting in the service of their Country this book is humbly dedicated. We thought that this dedication might be made more meaningful by the in- clusion of pictures of these former associates now in uniform. Naturally it was impossible to obtain pictures of them all. The best we could do was to attempt to photograph all those who were able to return and visit us while they were on furlough. Even then weather conditions and unavoidable inconveniences often made it difficult for our photographer. However, we include in the follow- ing pages those photographs which we were able to secure. We hope that they will serve as a tie between us and all of you. Through them we salute you and wish you Godspeed. Zin jliilemuriam The valiant never taste of death but once. IAMES MADDEN LEONARD A.

After four long years they're going to let us out That's what We all say at one time or another during our senior year, but deep down underneath we are sorry to be leaving our Alma Mater for the last time. We are sorry to be leaving our friends and teachers, our studies and books even though we don't admit it. Perhaps this is why we fill our last year as full of fun and gayety as possible. h This year we began our activities with a hayride. Playing sacks on , eating at Parkview , and various other activities combined to give all con- cerned a very enjoyable evening. As October 18 and l9 rolled around, we were told to appear at Gimbel's to have our graduation pictures taken. We were led into a small room, seated, and told to look into a mirror. Click, and it was all over. Less than two weeks later, Miss Norris brought the proofs out to the school and we realized for the first time what we really look like. December 3 proved to be the date of one of the biggest events of the school year. On this day, the senior class presented the school with the best stage production of many seasons at West View. Everyone worked very hard to make it a big success. On the Monday before the big night, seniors canvassed the borough, selling tickets to everyone in sight. When Friday night finally came, the auditorium was packed to capacity, and our presentation of Best Foot Forward was a superb success. Many of our boys are leaving for the services, so in Ianuary we held a farewell party for several of them. Wally King's Band supplied us with fine dance music, and refreshments were served in the library. Then short skits were presented portraying the personality of each boy leaving. One day in English class we were shown samples and styles of announce- ment cards, and we voted for the one we liked best. In our homerooms we ordered name cards from our representatives, and we began to realize how close May was. The other day, Mr. Paynter interrupted our class sending us to the office to see what efficiency actually is. As we entered, we were pushed' against the wall, a tape measure seemed to wrap itself around us, and we were told we had been measured for our caps and gowns. Before we had a chance to enjoy the recess, we found ourselves back in class. The most important month in our lives so far will be this May. Everything is going to happen at once. The Prom, Dinner Dance, Baccalaureate, and most important of all, Commencement, all crammed into two short weeks! Whew, it makes me dizzy just to think about it, so the best thing to do is don't think about it. We'll just have to wait and let things come as they may.

Day The Westvian - 40 . rdf I 641,65 .xgcfiuifiw As we stop in our course of direction, aiming for higher ideals and educa- tion, and look back on the shadows of time, we find they are not shadows as we believed, but brightly glowing experiences of the past, which will ever be dear to us. From the shadows emerge low lights, soft music, and the romantic moments of the junior Turkey Trot. This was the first big social event of the year and an excellent crowd was there. On the night of November 20, the couples danced to the sweet music of Bill LeRoy's orchestra. Days after the music stopped, everyone was still dancing around school in a dream trying to make their memories of this event linger as long as possible. Next on the schedule for the juniors was The Scarecrow Creeps. For days, hideous laughter was heard from the P. A. system and stunned students tripped from class to class wonderingeWho is the Phantom Scarecrow?l All their questions were answered and the mystery was solved on the night of March 3 l, when the talented juniors, under the capable direction of Miss Delp, produced the blood-curdling mystery. The class of 46 was not permitted to sponsor profit making events: there- fore, they confined their social activities to private parties. This, however, did not stop them from having lots of fun. On October 20, they all scurried out to the country to enjoy a hayride and on january 28, most of the members of the class turned out for the Sophomore Snowball , their successful party at the Colonial. While the Democrats and Republicans were confusing everybody about nationailfpplitical transactions, politics at West View were comparatively clear. The lunior'Qlass officers, Kent Thorpe, james Kimmick, Lois Resler, Shirley Swartz, and their sponsors, Miss Delp and Mr. Renton, and the Sophomore executives, Al Ehrsam, Nancy Crozier, Sumner Kivlan, Roland Dollhopf, and their sponsors, Miss Conner and Mr. Hein worked in perfect conjunction to make things as easy as possible for the office and themselves. Without these people it would have been extremely difficult for the underclassmen to have had any of these activities. Although the Freshmen class is unorganized, they collaborated: and on October 15, they planned to have a hayride. The weatherman was against them, but that didn't stop our hard-to-discourage Freshmen. They all trailed up to Hemlock Grove and enjoyed a gala evening of choice games, dancing, and eating-more power to our up and coming Freshmen. Last but not least come the seventh and eighth grade students. Being new to West View they are not yet active in school affairs, but that doesn't mean they missed out on any fun. They enjoyed themselves in their individual homeroom parties. So now we fade back into the shadows to await another eventful year. Another year filled with gala activities and unforgettable memories.

Cole. ln every town and borough of the United States, there is some ruling body made up of persons selected by the townsfolk. It is the duty of this organization to make laws for the people. ln West View High School this same form of democratic government is used. Representa- tives are elected from each homeroom to go to Student Council meetings and relay back to their group the developments which took place. Criticisms, complaints, and suggestions are re- ceived, and special committees are formed to iron out any difficulties. The Student government ran smoothly and efficiently this year under the capable leader- ship of Ronald Cole. He was assisted by Fred McCune, a junior high member, who was elected Vice-presidentg Virginia Blattner, Secre- taryg and Bob Mertz, Treasurer. Other cabinet members were Bill Craif, Secretary of Activi- ties: lim Cummings, Secretary of Publicity, lohn Keogh, Secretary of Sanitation: and Dave Smith, Secretary of Traffic, until December, when he left to join the English Navy. His posi- tion was filled by Herman Ulrich. Student Council did a good job of promot- ing the sale of War Stamps. During the Fourth War Loan Drive, they sponsored a treasure hunt to discover all unfilled stamp books. Another great undertaking was the maga- zine campaign. Students selling the most sub- scriptions received prizes. The total amount of subscriptions sold was 570050. The school's net commission was 35229.03 The Council plans to take S75 from this year's treasury and buy a lasting gift for the school. Several assemblies boosted the year's total of War Stamps also. One of these assemblies was an auction spon- sored by the 9-l's. Another was a quiz pro- gram, Do lt-Or Else, put on by Miss Dauben- speck's home room. Mrs. Gardner's Iunior English Classes presented a patriotic pageant to help in the effort. Congratulations to Student Council for their able assistance in this work! During the year, Council sponsored various tea dances after athletic events and assem- blies. With the helpful aid of Miss Allen and Miss Daubenspeck, Student Council has been a credit to West View. There remains little to be done to complete the picture of success and satisfaction for the students. The Westvian - 44 President ...... ....... R onald Cole Vice-president . . . . . .

For outstanding students in most high schools, a National Honor Society has been organized for rewarding those who are superior in scholarship, leader- ship, character, and service. Its purpose is to make competition much keener, improve the educational standards, and give worthy students public acclaim. In West View High School, seniors who stand in the upper quarter of their class are eligible. Then a committee of faculty members who have had a chance to know and work with these students vote for them in a preferential ballot. Ten per cent of the class enrollment are then chosen as members of the society. For the most part, this honor represents the only public recognition that these boys and girls have been given for four long years which they have spent studying and serving their school and their fellow students in every possible way. These students are to be congratulated for their fine scholastic records and their sincere wishes to help out whenever and wherever their services are needed. Although their names were not announced in time for a picture to be taken for publication, the Westvian includes the following list of names of the 1944 members of the National Honor Society so that we all may know and recognize them.

Again our National Forensic League Chap- ter has brought universal recognition to West View. This year, as in the past, our speech students have traveled all over western Penn- sylvania to gain honors for their Alma Mater. And they have done just that! ln spite of travel hardships, a delegation has attended events at Munhall, Latrobe, Centerville, Mclieesport, Am- bridge, Bentleyville, Charleroi, and Hurst and has come out in front ranks in every one. At the district Student Congress, William Hasek was elected Speaker of the House. Robert Mertz and Iohn Mullen were chosen Outstanding Speaker in the Senate and House respectively, further witnesses that we are con- tinuing the precedent established by Richard Spatz and William Perlik in their days in West View. The school chapter also sponsored an over- night debate' tournament on February 18-19, Which, too, was hailed as a great success by all. Our debate team has resolved not only that the United States should join in reconsti- tuting the League of Nations Cpardon us, nega- tivel but also that West View will reign as De- bate Champion of Pennsylvania. The varsity team composed of Iohn Mullen, Franklin Black- stone, Bill Hasek, and Bob Mertz are determined to achieve this elusive objective. Let's go, fellows, we're all behind you! In oratory, dramatic declamation, and hu- morous declamation, the Speech Club has left nothing to be desired. We are convinced that one or more championships will come our way in the N. F. L. District Tournament held at Car- negie Tech. The community, likewise, has benefited from the services of the club in the form of round-table discussions, individual readings, and P.'l'.A. programs. . The officers who have so capably directed the functions of the chapter are Bob Mertz, presidentg Herman Ulrich, vice-presidentg Frank- lin Blackstone, secretary, David Archer, treas- urer. All these have done a splendid job in their positions. Of course, none of this could be possible without their sponsor, Mr. Mugnani. We believe he is the indispensable man for without him, speech work would be difficult, in- deed. Miss Delp has also rendered invaluable service in the interpretative speech field. The Westvian applauds the National For- ensic League Chapter for its praiseworthy efforts to guarantee West View top position among the high schools of the Tri-state District. The Westvian - 47 QP!

The Girl Reserves is a group of girls who enjoy helping out whenever needed. Under the competent leadership of Dolly Kiedaisch, a very interesting program was carried out for the l943-44 term. Their initiation, in the fall, was very inter- esting and amusing. The new girls were dressed up as Indians, and acted out Hiawatha. After this, all the girls went up to the high school and had refreshments. The candlelight service was held in Ianuary, and as each girl lighted her candle, she became an official member of the Girl Reserves. At the first meeting of the Girl Reserves, the election of officers was held. Norma Mc- Donald was elected president: Mary Louise 1 Aisbitt, vice-president: Gloria Kiedaisch, sec- retary, and lean Louden, treasurer. The G. R.'s had a bake sale and two suc- cessful tea dances, all for the benefit of the Senior May Day Breakfast. This year the breakfast is not limited just to the Senior girls, but to all the members of the Senior Class. The high spot of the two tea dances was the door prize, two dozen of beautiful red roses. The last two successful events were the Spring Dance at the Colonial and the tradi- tional May Day breakfast. These are just a few of -the many good times the Girl Reserves have had. We take off our hats to the Girl Reserves for their fine service and their worthy contri- butions to West View High School and their fellow students.

The Varsity Club is the only activity of its kind in the school. Organized in l93U, it con- sists of boys who have obtained letters in the various school sports. By participation in school sponsored athletics and playing half the total number of contests a player is eligible for membership. The first meeting of the l943-44 Varsity Club consisted in organization. The officers elected: President, Wilbert Wagnerp Vice-presi- dent, Ronald Coleg Secretary, Herbert Wright, Treasurer, Raymond Stockhausen. lnitiation for new members was held November twenty- ninth. These boys were at the mercy of the veterans who required them to wear the same white shirt with a flower in a button hole and part their hair in the middle for an entire week. Along with a few other things, they also had to squat whenever and wherever asked to do so by an established member. Although incon- venienced a little by these acts, every boy was extremely proud because he could belong to such a limited organization. - The first activity was a turkey raffle held on December l4. Many other activities fol- lowed. On lanuary l7, a skating party was held at West View's skating rink, followed by games played on our gym floor. Refreshments were served to complete an enjoyable evening. Club members escorted their favorite girls to a tremendously successful hayride which also was held in Ianuary. Missing from the list this year was the annual Varsity Variety show, which they hope to re-establish as soon as possible. ln March, the organizer and sponsor, Arthur Hartman, was called to serve in the armed forces, and it was necessary to elect a new leader. The choice was Mr. De Gusipe, an addition to the faculty this year. From the very beginning he had the confidence and good- will of the boys, and the Varsity Club is sure to succeed under his capable direction.

They make an impressive picture in their maroon robes, while they chase air molecules hither and yon with their inspiring renditions of Lost In The Night, Spirit Ob De Lord, and Listen To The Lambs. But before l tell more about the achievements of the chorus, suppose we investigate a little and find out what lies behind this melodious group. Miss Conner is respon- sible for seeing that the chorus members get to rehearsals, and we can thank her for the harmonious effects of the various musical scores. But behind those hours of practice and timing lies perhaps the main reason for the success of this year's chorus. There's a relationship between the chorus members that speaks of teamwork and friendly co- operation. To be admitted to the chorus, one must not only have a pleasing singing voice, but a basic foundation in music and sight reading as well. Miss Conner is able to observe her chorus material very diligently during the daily classes, and in that way is better able to train them. The annual Christmas Cantata, Childe Iesus, seems to grow more beautiful every year. Something a little different in the way of operettas was presented this year. Gilbert and Sullivan's All At Sea was the choice, and a wise choice it was. For days Q . , . Q Y afterward West View-ites could be, heard humming the many enticing ditties as they made their way to class. ln the annual May Spring Concert, the reputation of the chorus was upheld to the limit, and West View citizens went home with a deep admiration for the work West View's musical department has accomplished. Our local community proved too small to hold the fame seeking chorus-ites. The fair city of Pittsburgh became their objective. Pittsburgh churches were filled with the melodious voices of our chorus members, and even a downtown department store became a conquered territory when our chorus sang there as a part of a special program. The one task of the chorus that always seems to be overlooked by the student body is the Choral work in assembly and for Baccalaureate. The solemn beauty of this service wouldn't be complete without Miss Conner's proteges, as anyone who has witnessed a Baccalaureate service at West View knows. The girl's trio, composed of Patty Beck, Romayne Evans and Shirley Swartz, together with the boy's quartet, includ- ing David Khulber, Robert Derr, Fred Kleiss, and David Archer spread Miss Conner's fame as a voice teacher still farther. To the departing Seniors of this year's chorus, we have but this to say, You can leave with the confidence that there are underclassmen being ably trained to fill your shoes, and you can leave with the feeling that you've done something for your school that not many have the ability to do.

West View can boast of having a ver- and the Hungari Dance No. 5 you heard echoing through the halls of our Alma Mater were't those of Dorsey or the Pittsburgh Sym- phony records. No, indeed, that was our or- chestra! We can always depend on a splen- did performance from this group whether we ask for popular or classical music. This is made possible by the excellent direction of Mr. Tole and the musical ability of its members. ln accordance with Mr. Tole's new policy, the students were required to decide which they preferred: the orchestra or other activities. He used no force in getting the members to come to rehearsals. lf the student was earnestly interested in the orchestra, he came: otherwise he was dropped. As a result, a really good or- chestra was organized. We owe the orchestra a vote of thanks for the fine music they presented in assemblies, stage productions, and the amateur programs. Remember The Russian Sailor's Dance, Ave Maria, and the program of South American satile group of musicians. The community realizes this, just as we, the students, do, due to the willingness of the orchestra to donate its services to civic organizations. When one thinks of the orchestra, he usually thinks of the group that appears in assemblyg but the bass choir, sax sextet, string , ensemble, and the swing band are all con- nected with the orchestra. The swing band is the most well-known. The boys are to be con- gratulated for the fine job they are doing. Because of the foresight of Mr. Tole, We shall continue to have just as fine an orchestra in the coming years. He is teaching classes in the grade schools so that we will have students to fill the seven vacancies left by this year's grad- uation. The outstanding achievement of the orches- tra has been its commencement repertoire. We are looking forward to this year's rendition, and, lest we forget, the Class of l944 wishes to thank Mr. Tole here and now. The Westvian - 51 . wwf I U l P guna! MQW .ff 4th Row: H. Wright, H.

The band is one organization in West View High School that will never fail: the reason is probably the able direction of Mr. Tole and the unfailing spirit of the music students. This year the crimson and gold band had to begin with practically a skeleton force . The band had to be made up of almost all Iunior High stu- dents. They, however, did a very fine job. Most of them had lessons in grade school under Mr. Tole's direction, so they tit into the swing of things very nicely. The band is an activity where everyone joins of his own accord. lt's hard work to play in the band: you have to be willing to give up much of your free time for practice and lessons. - The band held a series of amateur nights to help buy new uniforms and instruments. Needless to say they were very successful in all these events. The time of year that the band gains most of its applause is in the fall when football season begins. There is always a feeling ot pride in every student and alumni when the band marches onto the field. lts tricky forma- tions catch the eye ot every spectator. The smooth marching outfit from West View gained lots of attention from other schools during the Christmas Parade. This year they staged their usual spring concert with Springdale and Mill- vale. No other organization in the school de- serves more praise than our band. Along with the band comes the twirlers and cheerleaders. These girls add dash and color to the band with their snappy red and white costumes and their flying batons. The sponsor line has always brought the attention of many spectators to West View's band. At all the athletic events the cheerleaders are the ones who keep our spirit and help cheer the boys on. The twirlers and cheerleaders need the band to back them up, but the band needs them just as much. The Westvian -- 52 Q jwirim emo! CAMP 0661, em. , E 1 Sponsors: D. Long, B. Farina, G. Kiedoisch, E.

Every day graduates of West View High School were leaving their homes to serve their country. What could the faculty and students do to make life or little brighter, bring home a little closer? It was decided to organize a staff and to pub- lish a newspaper which would reach both high school students and West View Servicemen. ln order to forward the idea, Miss Laing organ- ized a group of promoters from each homeroom, and a contest was held to select a name. The most fitting seemed At Ease, for all might be relaxed while reading the news. Miss Dauben- speck took over the typing and mailing, and the paper reaches over three hundred in the armed services. As their class project, Miss Delp's senior English Class elected editors and set up a working plan. Dot Gredlein and Vir- ginia Blattner were selected as editors. To Dolly Macdonald and Betty Pohrer fell the art work. With Cora Thompson's help, the ad- dresses of the boys were secured and pub- lished. For this information, the editors re- ceived countless letters of thanks. In each issue, the staff has attempted to keep this list up-to-date. Soon various business concerns took an interest in the undertaking, and they are help- ing to finance it. The paper usually has in- cluded school news, news of the boys, excerpts from interesting letters, boys on leave, per- sonals, and addresses. This setup was de- cided upon after much deliberation, for the paper had to serve its two-fold purpose. To date, At Ease has become a definite part of the activities of West View High and will survive as such as long as its need remains. THE STAFF Editor ..... ....................

This organization, under the capable guidance of Miss Laing and Miss Delp, is en- tirely responsible for the enjoyable reading and, incidentally, the hard work which you have been able to do by having one of the best school libraries in Allegheny County at your disposal. All the girls which make up the club willingly spend their extra time working so that you may get the most out of our fine library. Not only do the girls help find the right book, but they also find any material or facts about the past, present, or future that can be found in the library. Our teachers also owe a vote of thanks to them for helping their students find the much needed material for term-papers, and the like. The interesting displays and the ma- terial on the bulletin boards are also due to the Library Club. Being a member of the Library Club, how- ever, is not all hard work. The club had quite a few social activities during' the course of the year, one of which was the annual Christmas dinner. lt is at this time that the Christmas tree and the library are decorated to give the school a little bit of holiday cheer. Another annual feature of the Library Club is the big tea dance and cake walk. Much of the success of the club this year was due to the very efficient officers. Dot Gred- lein was president with lean Holtzman as vice- president. Ginger Herndon proved to be or very capable secretary and treasurer. Undoubtedly the club would not have reached such or high degree of success without these fine officers. The Westvian - 55 ir 5 .xglidfic Mociafion . tm? 3rd Row: I. Belles, S. King, B. Gottschalk, B.

We won! ! ! Whew! lust watching these girls play bas- ketball tires me out. Wonder what goes on here. Suppose we see if we can catch Miss Aiken before she goes to the shower room. Oh, there she is. May l see you a moment, Miss Aiken? Pretty good game, huh? Where do you get your players? Do you use a draft sys- tem, or is it on a purely voluntary basis? How many basketball teams do you have this sea- son? Who won the basketball tournament? How are the volley-ball and deck-tennis tourna- ments coming along? Have any girls gotten their G. A. A. letters this year? After bombarding our pretty gym teacher with these questions, l've learned the following and most enlightening information. The Girl's Athletic Association Ccommonly referred to as G. A. A. l meets every Tuesday and Friday in the school gym, these two days being the only time when the gym is vacated by West View's muscle-men. Four teams were formed from Senior High, and two from lunior High. Team four, composed of ten Iunior girls won this year's basketball tournament. To earn a G. A. A. letter, the girls must become consistent members of this organiza- tion. Letters are awarded on a basis of points which the girls earn from their participation in the games during seventh period on Tuesday and Friday. A point is earned every time a girl attends G. A. A., plus one-half point for every time her team wins a game. As soon as her total number of points add up to sixty, she is entitled to the much coveted letter. Points carry over from seventh grade to ninth grade and begin again in tenth grade to carry over to twelfth grade. Anna May D'Angelo has the most points to date in Iunior High, while Betty lane Steele carries the honors for Senior High. The girls play these tournaments on a vol- untary basis. No pressure is brought upon them by Miss Aiken, and the fun they have is proof enough of the success of this organization. The feminine sex in West View has been brought up to a front seat through the widely- known achievements of the G. A. A. Besides being a source of enjoyment, the girls have been brought closer together through coopera- tion with one another. This sort of thing breeds good sportsmanship and a quality called Americanism.

Do you have an old radio that needs fix- ing?? A set that doesn't run just right? Then bring it to West View High Schools Radio Club. lts members are a bunch of trouble- shooters who are interested in the fundamentals of radio-communications and the maintenance and repair of radio sets. Their motto is lf there's trouble, We'll find it. However, this is an understatement. Not only do they find the disturbance, but they remedy it also and put the set back in A-l condition. A radio club is not new to West View but never before has it been very permanent. ln- terest was revived this year by Charles Law- rence and one of our new faculty members, Mr. Hein, agreed to sponsor it. Radio is Mr. Hein's hobby, and his vast realms of knowledge and practical experience have contributed much to the success of the organization. Meetings are held every Tuesday after- noon in room 201. Mr. Hein explains some fac- tor or circuit present in some particular radio unit. After discussing problems that confuse some of the members, practical experience is gained by working on broken sets that have been brought in to them and building displays of oscillators, transmitters, and so forth. This knowledge will be of great value to the students in the club especially if they are destined for the armed forces. The club also gives its mem- bers a chance to study along technical lines and to look toward radio as a career. A proof of the endurability of the Radio Club are the plans which they are making for their post-war organization. As everybody knows, ham radio stations are not allowed to operate during war time. However, the club members have already started building a trans- mitter which will operate from the roof of West View High School as soon as the ban on such stations is lifted. The Westvian assures them that we'll all be listening when the Indians take to the air trails . The Westvian - 58 cience CML lst Row: B. Stanger, A. Eyles, D, Sutey, B. Cottschalk, S. Vifhite, E.

Main Charactersf- Miss Alcott and any sci- entifically-minded ninth grade student, who might be interested in joining the Science Club. That brief resume sums up the call that went out last November for any students who might be interested in joining a Club that was definitely news in West View. Never before had such a club been formed, and an expectant group of ninth-graders met in room llO to find out more about this new organization. Miss Alcott is the sponsor of this group, and through her diligent efforts the Steel City Sci- ence Club was born and was a huge success. The S. C. S. C. Cthat being the nickname of this clubl isn't just a social society. They've really accomplished a lot. An amount Was de- cided on for dues, and as soon as financial cir- cumstances permitted, a charter was obtained from the Science Clubs of America. Officers were elected, and the club's work began in ear- nest. Bill Mathies is Presidentg Rudy Arn, Vice Presidentg Mary Smith, Secretaryg and Bobby Fitzgerald, Treasurer. At the beginning of the school term, each club member selected a scientific project as his task for the school year. Meetings were held every Wednesday during seventh period, and work was done on the various projects after the regular business meeting. Miss Alcott prepared special programs at times for the meetings, consisting of chemical demonstra- tions. Miss Alcott has great plans for the future of the Steel City Science Club. Such an organi- zation is destined to grow in fame and size. Next year it is hoped that the admittance group will be widened to include any Senior High student interested.

Most students do not realize the inestimable results brought about by the Hall Patrol since its origin. Although our halls are void of the congestion traditional to West View, it's only by means of the guiding hand of the Hall Patrol that these conditions prevail. This year, as in the past two, the head of the Hall Patrol CSecretary of Traffict was elected by the entire student body. ln a close election David Smith was chosen. Little did we know how able an official Dave could befbut we soon found out. Within a week, an efficient, hard-working Hall Patrol was on the job. Mr. Schneider was selected as faculty advisor. He, too, proved very capable in his position. Of those seeking places on the new squad, veterans received a slight advantage. How- ever, the system of using only students quali- fied by scholastic standing, good citizenship, and consistency in maintaining their post was carried out religiously. Mr. Paynter was of great assistance by granting his power and approval to the undertakings of the boys. Iust before Christmas vacation, if you re- member, Dave received orders to report to Eng- land for services in His Majesty's Navy. A short time later Mr. Schneider was inducted into the Armed Forces of the United States, and the Hall Patrol was lacking its two leaders. The seemingly insurmountable task then fell to Herman Ulrich, Dave Smith's conscientious lieutenant. We find it hard to believe that any- one could have handled this job in a better way. The functions of the Hall Patrol, as you well know, range from directing traffic to investigat- ing roaming pupils for hall passes. This year the added responsibility of keeping halls free of scrap paper was given to our hall squad. The Hall Patrol is carrying on, continuing its attempt to make the halls of West View the pride of the students. The Westvian salutes the Hall Patrol, pursuing its duties in such a commendable manner in spite of the difficulties imposed by the absence of their original spon- sor, Mr. Puchta, who has never been equalled in three years, and by a war, affecting the lives of every person in our school.

SEASON RECORD West View Millvale West View Avalon West View Bellevue West View Etna West View Bellevue West View Avalon West View Avonworth With the first signs of autumn came the first signs of football activity at West View. Another gang of husky fellows under the capable tutor- ing of Mr. Hartman, assisted by Mr. Holmok and Mr. Mugnani, was being molded into a team. The ranks of the team were hard-hit by graduation last year, and the coaches had quite a task confronting them in September. The team opened at Millvale in a night game. Several experienced faces were noticed in the line-up. Wib Wagner, the old war- horse of the team, was still hitting away at end. Don Madden and Al Craig, varsity men in '42 were back in battle garb. ln addition to these warriors were lohn Bolsinger, 200 pound fullback, Red McCausland, whose passing arm proved to be one of our best offensive threats, and Huck Reel, the end who snagged many of those passes. The center position was occupied by a first year man, Sophomore lack Roy, who capably filled the spot left vacant by veteran Cliff Elms because of an injury in pre-season scrimmage. The season moved on rapidly. Kent Thorpe and Chuck Ferree dodged and bulled their way through enemy ranks, proving themselves our best running backs. Switching off at guar- terback were Mickey Cole and Bill Craig. Up in the front line were tackles lim Cum- mings, Bill Hock, and Everett Topham. Red Cully and Bob Kenny were in and out filling the guard position previously occupied by Craig, who was compelled to give up football. Rudy Stockhausen took care of the other guard spot. Ken Grossman and lack Bar- barine alternated at end. George lamme saw plenty of action at tackle. The Avonworth game ended our season. The team, although lacking in experience, made up for it with their fighting spirit. Another foot- ball year came to a close: another squad set- tled down to other activities: and the coaches were ready to look ahead to another year.

Although with them were sent our best wishes, their spirit and good fellowship remained with us. Coach Wrenshall also departed from our ranks to join the Navy, and back came Coach Hartman to guide us through another year. The team's only hold-over from last year was Wib Wagner. The team was built around Wib, who filled one of the guard posi- tions. The other guard position was held down by Red McCausland. Fighting for the center position were lanky Harry White and Bob Carlile. Although White was the tallest man on the squad, Carlile drew the nod. Canning, Duncan, and Thomas were our fast-breaking forwards. They made up what they lacked in height by fighting spirit. The opening game of the season with Bald- win was a victory for West View. The next vic- tory broke a record. Never before had we beaten Edgewood on their own floor. The final victory over Sewickley all but ended the season. Taking a quick glance at the lunior Var- sity, we note that their record was somewhat better than that of the Varsity. Sparking them on were lack Fullerton, Huck Reel, and Bud Stierheim. Although the season wasn't too successful, it was an improvement over last year. Next year with a few more experienced to draw from, the prospects seem much brighter.

Their fears were needless, however, for Mr. Renton stepped in and worked hard with the boys. The result was another enviable record hung up by the grunt and groan artists. The high spots in the season were the first match with Greensburg, which ended in a tie, and the second match with Canonsburg, which ended in a loss for West View. The most consistent winners this year were Vinnie LaValle, Mickey Cole and Don Warner. The final milestone in this year's season was the W. P. I. A. L. tournament held at Waynesburg. Although West View didn't come up with a first place winner, Mickey Cole fought his way to the finals, only to lose Q tough battle by a close decision, and several of our muscle- men stuck it out to the semi-finals to give West View a very good showing. Looking over the list of fellows above, we discover that only four of them will be lost through graduation. On this we base our prediction that next year's wrestling team will deserve much watching. More power to you, fellows. Let's get out there and keep West View's tradition flying high. THE SCORES THE TEAM West View Carnegie 88 lbs McCune West View Millvale 95 lbs. Blaha, D.

The pressure is on both play- ers as the West View man steps forward and putts to defeat or Victory. That might easily be the situation this year after a victorious past season, with the excep- tion of a Greensburg match. We've still a few battered golf balls, some rusty clubs, and the will to win. The entire team is back this year except Bob Schaffer. So We can look forward to what promises to be a successful season and probably West View's first Golf Cup. Under the able tutorship of Mr. Tiffany, the click of golf balls will soon be heard at the Highland Country Club as the team swings its way to vic- tory. The probable line-up will be McCarthy, Duncan, Barisano, Cole, and Holland. What do you say, fellows. Let's make that last stroke count and the title secure.

WWJJWJ jg illlylllfljlfilgy V Wt iff' WW' 2 s 5 owgowef mln fag With all the ceremonial pomp that is traditional in the time-honored obser- vance of May Day, Margaret Matey was crowned Queen of the May for 1944 by the retiring Queen, lean Stewart. This enviable honor was bestowed upon Queen Margaret in the presence of her Court of Beauty which included the other candidates for the throne. For the first time the Coronation was performed at the Athletic Field, and it was a welcome change. Her Majesty the Queen was entertained by all her subjects including representatives from Highland and Ridgewood. Queen Margaret proclaimed a ball that was held that evening in the gymnasium. This day is one that will live in our memories. THE COURT QF BEAUTY MAY QUEEN 1944 .......................

Be careful of the wet paint, screams Dolly. Hurry, you're on, yells Bob. Ouch, that's my head, moans Lefty, as the door falls on top of him. lt's things like these that gives Miss Daubenspeck gray hair every year around play time. lt was a minute before curtain time, and everyone was in his place. The swelling sounds of Buckle Down Wine socki lowered to a whisper. Miss Daubenspeck gave final inspection: everyone gulpedg and the curtain parted. busy trying to change their room at Winsocki into a girls' room. lt was the week before the annual winter prom, and all the fellows were in a dither about their dates. Bud Hooper decides to write a letter to a movie star, Miss Gale loy, and invites her to the prom with him. He never dreams that since she's so important, and so far away, that she would accept. So he invites his own girl, Helen Schles- singer, to come too. But things take a turn for the worse, the girls come, Ethel, Minerva, Miss Delaware Water Gap, the Blind Date, and Miss Smith, all ready for the big event. Then to make everything tops, Miss Ioy's publicity manager Hack Haggertyl decides that she should come as a stunt. So she accepts the invitation. To meet with this, Bud writes Helen that he has the grippe and cannot go to the dance, One of Bud's friends also wrote to Helen that he is better, so Helen comes too. You can visualize the friction that is caused. The most amusing scene in the whole play was the students mad rush at Miss loy for souvenirs of her clothing, which thoy ripped from her back. Act lil solved everything and brought things back to normal again. Dr. Reeber, the principal of Winsocki, allows Bud to stay, at the request of Miss loy. The other fellows and girls settle all arguments caused by Miss loyg including Bud and Helen. Miss loy's contract option is renewed. As the curtain closes on the third act, everyone back- stage breathes a sigh of relief, knowing he's done his best. and once again, the Senior Class has had a success. So with the strains of Buckle Down Winsocki fading again, we end this year's play and challenge the coming Senior Class. CAST OF CHARACTERS Dr. Reeber .. ...................... .. Dutch ........
