Maybe the teacher believes in old-fashioned methods of punishment. These seniors are members of Miss Stienecker's English IV class. Their lan- guage work consists mainly of reviewing and brushing up on grammar rules. They read novels, biographies, and poetry. When Macbeth was read, hearing records and seeing it presented in assembly made this classic most enjoyable. This French is iust getting me down, says Gus. Looks as though Lee has already gone down under the strain. Notice Capobianco's cheesecake pose? This photogenic group is composed of the seniors in French and Spanish classes. Besides regular class work each appeared in an assembly program. The Spanish class presented plays in Spanish. At a rally the French class sang Le Vieil Or Et Bleu fThe Old Gold and Bluej.

These students are members of Miss Mary Kenyon's Problems of Democracy class. They study and discuss the current news and the prob- lems ot the world in which they live. Along with their textbook work, they use a current news magazine such as Time or Newsweek as class material.

That's Jett Chandler, Miss Broverman's pin-up boy, over the blackboard. This assortment of juniors and seniors under the able guidance of Miss Francis Broverman has learned iust how to be the perfect managers and nutri- tionists in their future homes. Their classes during the year included various interesting subjects: everything from weighing the calories in food to discussing proper grooming habits. Advanced Cooking Mary Nolte better be careful because Van Dyne has that look in his eyes, and a rolling pin in his hand! Duke Stoetzer seems to doubt if Carol can use the rolling oin eftectivelv. Don't Marian and Jerry Morris look domestic? That shoulder in the left corner belongs to Bill McNeil. The cooking class began the year with learning how to can. At certain seasons they took up special classes of foods, such as meat substitutes during Lent and pastry at Christmas time. 34 xii' Af , I IHA, Ap , S825 J ' 1 tml la ,, '.

Absent: Ted Norton. achine Shop ls this for real? lf so, Jim Parisi might be minus a few fingers. These boys belong to Mr. Kahle's machine shop where they learn to work the various industrial machines. They make anything from rings to small automobiles. They also do all the work on the lockers around WHS. The boys have made nut crackers, ash trays, miniature cannons, steam en- gines, files and many other things. They get some of their ideas from the maga- zines. By the time they finish the course, they're ready for a job in any factory or machine shop. Electricity These boys all look interested enough in what is being explained to them. ls that natural? The electricity classes study the basic principles and applications of electricity. During the course of the year they study its history, electric cur- rents, how storage batteries work, the basic parts of magnetism, series and par- allel circuits, conductors, D. C. and A. C. currents, and how electricity is used in the home. The class strives to fix these basic facts and principles in the student's mind by practical application and to teach the laws of its behavior so it can be used with greater safety and confidence. 35 From left to right: Paul Bland, Bob Kaiser, Bill McGee, Tom Neuman, Jerry Myers, Jim Mays, Richard Breiding, George Carroll, Jack Trouten, Mr. R.

Just when they take your picture. While everyone else is taking his work seriously, Jerry Morris seems to find itamusing. All kidding aside, these boys do a good iob in Mr. R. A. Fox's printing class. The boys begin by first learning the case chart and then the point system. The case chart shows where the type is kept, the point system is the measuring system in printing. Next they learn to set type and run the presses. Then the real work begins. Each year two thousand football programs a week for each home game, stationery, report cards, triplicate order blanks, special requisitions, and numer- ous tickets, tags, pamphlets, and pro- grams, both for school and outside use, roll oft the presses.

Second Row: Jerry Myers, Geneva Marsh, Nellie Och, Mr. R. A. Fox, Beverly Foose. Third Row: Bob Steele, Tom Henthorn, Bill Ewing, Sally Armbruster, Dolores Holmes. Driver Education Class Wonder why Betty Lucci is so very serious all at once. Did you notice how hard Mr. Fox is trying to smile? What he goes through to earn a living! The students begin by learning the proper and sate way to operate a car. Then they practice what they have learned by driving the dual-controlled car around a special course on the lsland. When they begin to operate the car with ease and a little skill, Mr. Fox takes them over the State Police course, then for their driver's test. For those who tail, there is always a second chance. 36 echanlcal Drawing Class Bob Baughman seems to be very Intent on getting hus work done Bu Prttchard and a few of the other boys are laughing at something quite funny but what?

However, Carol seems to think what Hugh is saying is incredible! This group of merry seniors is the NHS as it looked at the beginning of the year. They are sponsored by Miss Jessie Cunningham. These students were taken into the organization in their junior year. They were selected for their lead- 3. it it J t F E f 2 5 1 E t ,nn Gosh, but they look solemn! One would never know by looking at the picture that they are all proud as Punch to be receiving the pledge for the National Honor Society from Hugh Yoho, NHS president. On March 4, l953, this group of girls and boys, 'I7 seniors and 10 iuniors, were initiated into National Honor Society. The Rev. W. D. Lewis, D. D, was the speaker forthe occasion and ership, scholarship, character and service. The officers are Hugh Yoho, president, Jerry Amos, vice-president, and Dorothy Lynn, secretary- treasurer. ln the Junior year 596 of the class may be taken in, and in the senior year TSM. These students consider it a great honor to carry on such projects as College Day, and Freshman day at which time they present an assembly. They also put outa Wheeling High handbook for new students and sophomores. Jarrell. Mathews. Knierim. Amos. W. Keylor, principal Hugh Yoho, president of the NHS, presented the pledge. The other nine active members, stand- ing behind the table, congratulated each initiate after he signed the membership book. The candlelighted stage provided an im- pressvie setting for the momentous occasion.

The next and most important event of the year was the Salvation Army Drive. This project helps to fulfill the purpose of student council. lt aids in the improvement of the corn- munity. Representatives were sent to the State Student Council convention held at Jackson's Mill. Lincoln High School and Wheeling High had the annual panel discussion. The Coronation Eall was another very beautiful and wonderful event sponsored by student council. They always have a May Queen and her court, in attendance.

The purpose of the band is to permit music- ally talented students to express their abilities and fulfill their desire to play good music with others. A drum major, Ronnie Rose this year, and six petite rnaiorettes lead the band at athletic meets, civic-inspired parades and during half- time at football games. The drum maior gives directions to the band members and maiorettes. He is usually a very fine twirler and twirls at half- time. The maiorettes are taught snappy dances, twirling and strutting by the Fassig Studio, which they perform to the music by the band. The band gives formal winter concerts to students wishing to listen to good enjoyable music. The band has participated in regional and state band contests, which give it new in- terest. As to the travel of the band, in the l95l-52 season it went to Pittsburgh to hear the Carnegie Tech Kiltie Band. It has gone to Morgantown for the past three years to view a football game played by WVU and some good opponent. The marching band has 48 members and the concert band has 41. This decrease is due to the working students and some iunior high members. To date the band has marched in ten parades prior to the football games, two civic parades and one special performance-the ar- rival of President Truman in September. It has presented two formal concerts and three iunior high promotional concerts. The seniors will be sadly missed in the T954-T955 season.

These poor girls were hounded all year by the officers, Patti Mathews, president, Ruth Spenger, vice- president, Mary Lisik, recording secretary, Carol Schmidt, corresponding secretary, Sallie Klein, treasurer, and Arlene Schafer, chaplain, to get out and sell pennants, cushions, dusters, corsages, and last but not least, tickets for their annual dance, the Spring Frolic on March 28. Activities after school hours were tourna- ments among the members, and playdays with other schools. Graduates received jackets- hence the selling!

She certainly has an innocent look on her face. This group of students is usually found be- hind this desk in the school library where they are hard at work. They have many jobs in the library such as checking out books, mending and repairing A8 books, and getting the new books ready for dis- play. They also shelve the books when they are returned, take care of the fines, help decorate the library and fix book displays, and type cards for the books. These students are directed by Mrs. Mar- garet Kettlewell, librarian. Program Rain or snow, these girls were always on the football stands selling the programs. Patti Mathews was in charge of the group. Without their help, you'd never have known which play- er was which. Lucille Plants looks a little doubtful about the whole situation. Shirley Cotts is sleeping on Cafete These people give up part of their lunch period for students who eat in the cafeteria. The cooks are there all morning, and the students go at ll:30.

The contest is sponsored in West Virginia by the Diamond Department Store of Charleston. The winners were Paul Pebler, senior, a gold key winner, Steve Vasiliou, junior, a key winner for the second year, and Nancy Rhoades, sophomore, a place winner. In addition to this the club en- tered local, national and international art con- tests. The recently organized Art Club always came to the rescue and produced posters or ban- ners en masse for dances, parties or band con- certs when needed. The club is sponsored by Mr. Anthony J. Peck, and has no officers, as a spirit of impartial- ity is encouraged.

Home Economics Club There's Ruth Boyle making like a model again and get a load of those prison striped socks. At what, pray tell me, is Henrietta looking or is she star-gazing again? Nevertheless, these are the future wives of America. This is the Home Economics Club. Under the direction of Miss Ruth Floto, these girls do a right nice iob. At Christmas time they spent an evening making a holiday favor for the faculty. In January they received a few aches and pains as the result of a skating party. Some- thing new added was a school party which they and the Y-Teens gave in February. ln March along with Stone and Thomas they held a style show. A spring bake sale was also held. Y-Teens The Y-Teens got off to a good start with a candlelight recognition service in the Auditorium. A weiner roast at Wheeling Park led off the so- cial activities. The group collected chocolate bars to send to children overseas. One of the most successful undertakings was a platter dance at which Donn Caldwell, a local disc jockey, played records. They also sponsored a school party with the help ofthe Home Ec Club. The sponsors are Miss Madge Miller and Mrs. Jeannette P. McCoy.
