Since 1926 it has been the privilege of Carrick High
School students to work under the guidance of Mr.
William H. Sprenkle, Principal. During this
tune his untiring efforts to be of continual
service to the student body have met
with success, and we have learned
to look upon him, not only as
a principal but as a friend
and leader in all high
school activities.

WILLIAM H. SPRENKLE, Principal


Theme
HE theme of the 1931 Carricktcr is based upon John Bunyan's Pil'
grim’s Progress. The choice of this allegory as the pattern for the
illustrations to be used was founded on the belief that through it a
student's journey throughout his scholastic career could be graphic-
ally depicted. Through the medium of these fictitious characters,
the reader's attention is directed to the temptations and victories a
student encounters on his Road of Learning. Just as Christian's determination to reach
the Celestial City is emphasized by Bunyan in Pilgrim’s Progress, so is a modern stu-
dent's striving for success evidenced in the illustrations so cleverly designed by the Art
editors in the 1931 Carricktcr.
Even though one may not be familiar with Pilgrim's Progress, yet he will have no
difficulty in recognizing and interpreting the ideas borrowed from Bunyan’s creation.
On the inside of the opening cover-page appears an illustration of Christian looking off
into the distance where he catches a glimpse of the Eternal City. Through modern
eyes we sec a student embarking on his high-school career with his goal, graduation, in
view. Our interpretation of the division page labeled “Knock and It Shall Be Opened
Unto You" is a student receiving knowledge from instructors who have completed their
journey. The next picture bears this inscription, “Then Evangelist Gave Christian a
Parchment Roll.” To our way of thinking this represents the presentation of a dip-
loma to a senior. We again attempt to modernize and with a twentieth century atti-
tude, we sec in the illustration, “Christian Climbs the Hill of Difficulty,” a scholar's
steady advancement from grade to grade. After turning over many pages one will
chance upon a division-pagc with this title, —“Christian Fights with Apollyon.” Thus
symbolizes the physical prowess and successfulness of Carrickites in subduing com-
petitors in athletic accomplishments. Just before the concluding pages of the journal,
there will appear a picture, “Christian Joins Himself Unto Hopeful,” which represents
the marvelous spirit of good fellowship and cooperation which prevails in Carrick High.
After presenting so many lovely illustrations, the Carricktcr ends with an appropriate
etching. On the concluding cover-pagcs is The Savior Embracing Christian. This
signifies a student's final supreme victory; his happy ending after years of struggling
and striving for the seemingly unattainable goal.
With such a theme, beautifully presented, the 1931 Carricktcr should be one that
can confidently take its place among the best.

Foreword
May this publication of the Carricktcr, through the
combined efforts of the Staff, the Faculty Adviser,
friends and classmates, establish the medium
which blends the pleasant memories of
school life, with the higher
aspirations of the future

In M.emoriam
GEORGE HOFFMAN
Born October 11, 1913—Died June 27, 1929
Friends depart, and memory takes them
To her caverns pure and deep
In our thoughts a vision lingers,
One that we shall always keep.
From our ranks his smile is missing,
Eyes alight with friendship true,
Yet the vision ever lingers,
Sharing in each thing we do.
Upward, upward, ever upward,
Leads the trail for evermore,
Weary pilgrims doff their burdens,
When they meet on yonder shore.
Helen Fleming.
Class History . . . February 1931
1GHT years of our elementary school life we left behind us as we
entered our Freshman year in February, 1927. We freshics felt
very grand and hopeful as to our future life. To the regret of all
concerned, this feeling did not last long, for we were soon cast back
into a great sh.idow, in which we were made to feel very insignific-
ant. At every step we were rebuked and even called little “green"
freshics, either by the upper classmen or by our instructors. In spite of it all we kept
stiff upper lips with the aid of our report room teachers, Miss Sexaucr in Room 2, and
Mr. Davidson in Room 9. We worked hard, always looking forward to the day
when the so-called greenies would become juniors or dignified seniors. We were sup-
posed to have been greatly honored by being permitted to attend Senior Assembly, even
though we were given, as one might well say, the last choice in scats. You need not
question as to their whereabouts.
At the end of the first year the freshman students
gladly stepped out of their former places and provided room for others who were con-
sidered by us quite as unfortunate.
As Sophomores we were treated with more respect and kindness. The Sophomore
year brought little change to the class excepting the entrance of a few students who had
formerly attended the Knoxville Junior High School. The new members, among whom
several brought honor as well as fame to our class, are: Ruth Gillard, Freda Frey,
Marion Waite, and Merrill Linhart. During the first half of this year we worked,
willing and systematically under the guidance of Miss Bachmann, Miss Tinker, and
Mr. Davidson, then occupying Rooms 6, 20, and 9 respectively. In the latter part of
this semester our class held their first successful social function, a picnic at the famous
Green's Woods.
Ever nearing our goal, wc proudly stepped into the Junior class, taking our places
with a little more dignity than necessary. The eleventh year brought much prominence
to several of our members, inasmuch as Edna Reber, Fred Koenig, and Ross Peden ob-
tained excellent positions on the Carrickulum staff. In the midst of all the burdensome
duties, the Junior-B’s suddenly woke up and sponsored a successful dance at the
Southern Country Club. This marked the beginning of the many delightful social
functions held by our class. __
feu- C&fap
A few days before the summer vacation, just as our Junior-B days drew to a close,
the class received a dreadful shock—our dear friend and classmate, George Hoffman,
who had been ill only a short time, passed away. He has been sadly missed by lx?th
students and teachers and his place among us cannot be filled.
At last the great day had arrived—our dreams of three years had culminated and
now we proudly accepted the title of “Dignified Seniors.” Thus began one of the
happiest years of our life in Carrick High. During the week following our ascendancy,
the rumors of probable class officers were authenticated Merrill Linhart, through his
athletic achievements and scholastic attainments, had the great honor of being chosen
President. The Vice-presidency was put into the capable hands of Ross Peden, a pop-
ular young man whose newspaper ability was remarkablAll the glory that goes with
the distinction of being selected class Secretary was bestowed upon William Johnson,
a favorite among his friends and also quite a saxophone player; while the duties of
Treasurer were assigned to Edna Reber, Associate Editor of the school paper. The
class welcomed Miss Sexaur and Mr. Henning as their class sponsors with great en-
thusiasm.
The Senior-B class was further honored by the presence of a literary genius, James
Poth, who achieved the title of “Editor-in-Chief” of the school paper. Another mem-
ber, Paul Schade, an honor student and Treasurer of the Activities Council, attained
second place in a contest on the subject, “What I Have Derived From My High School
Course.” Joe Schmeiler and John Bray, famous swimmers, ranked very high in the
city-wide swimming meet. The former received first place in the breast-stroke, while
the latter finished third in the back-stroke.
Our Senior-B semester was not all work; the class also engaged in several social
activities which were important events for the whole school. The Activities Council
sponsored a Senior Picnic, which was enjoyed by Seniors, Alumnae, and parents. The
Senior Prom attracted a large attendance and proved to be very successful. The last,
but not the least function, was the Boat Ride, which was attended by young and old.
Oh, what a crowd!
Fall found the Senior-A’s reunited in a special room, Room 9, which provided for
the accommodation of 60 students. At the end of the first report period, in spite of
the overcrowded hours of both recreation and work, the class won distinction by earning
both the Honor Banner and the Honor Pennant.
The semester's social function opened with a very successful picnic at South Park.
Although it rained at intervals everyone enjoyed himself immensely and looked forward
to the next class party. This took the form of a Hallowe'en Dance at the Mothers’
Club on Tuesday, October the twenty-eighth. In the meantime the class was in a
puzzled and confused state of mind, wondering about the Class Play, “Believe It Or
Not,” and the characters who were to take part.
As our High School Days come to a close, our hearts are filled with sorrow and
uncertainty for the future. We bid farewell to dear old Carrick High, sealed in our
hearts forever, with deepest affection.
CnrrtcItTp
Believe It Or Not
HE Class Play was a howling success! Believe it or not! According
to many "Believe It Or Not” was the best class play ever produced
in Carrick High School. Much of the success of the play was due
to the excellent cast which included: Irene Hess, Lucy Barranti,
Betty Emery, Betty Apcl, Eunice Peebles, Kate Baxmeir, Edward
Rick, Ross Peden, Frederick Koenig, Joseph Schmeilcr, Philip Fri-
day, Edna Reber, Elizabeth Hoffman, and Merrill Linhart.
Harriet Folhs (Edna Reber) is confronted with a perplexing situation. Her
wealthy uncle (Philip Friday) insists that she is married before she is twenty-two years
old in order to inherit Ins money. Confiding in her chum, Nancy, (Eunice Peebles)
that she has inserted a matrimonial “ad” in the local newspaper, stirs things into action
and Nancy decides to relieve the awkward situation by donning male attire and posing
as Harriet's fiance. Complications arise when Harriet s brother, Norman Follis (Joe
Schmeilcr) and his friend, Cuthbert Jackson (Frederick Koenig) arrive in answer to
the “ad.” The tangled threads arc finally straightened out and things end happily for
all.
Other contributing factors to the plays success were the prompter, Grace Bru-
bach; the stage manager, Ross Peden: property manager, Frank Allen; and the coach,
Mr. Patton, who deserve our thanks for their sincere cooperation.

Class History . . .June 1931
T doesn't seem possible that wc are Seniors. Four years ago in Sep-
tember, we began our career in Carrick High School. How terrified
wc were when wc first entered the h i'ls! Everything seems different
because we no longer feel terrified, for wc love everything in the
dear old school.
Our first year was under the guidance of Miss Wolff, Miss Clark
and Mr. Snyder who helped us to get acquainted with the manners and customs in high
school.
In our Sophomore year, quite a number of new members were added to our class.
These students came from Knoxville Junior High School. This year passed without very
much excitement.
The next year our dreams of being upper classmen were fully realized for wc
were then Juniors. With the splendid cooperation of Miss Bachmann and Miss Harris,
we had a very successful year. The class gave two dances, one a Valentine Dance which
was held at Brentwood Shelter House, the other was the Junior Prom which was also
held at the Brentwood Shelter House. Both dances were wonderfully successful.
We arc now in our last year and it is one wc will never forget. At our first class
meeting wc organized and elected Miss Bachmann and Mr. McIlroy as sponsors;
Edwin Hirt, President; Samuel Burkhart, Vice President; Sybil Gikling, Secretary; and
Mac Schneider, Treasurer.
Wc have many heroes from the world of sports in the class. Among these are
Dan Carapellucci who won a place as guard on the Press All-Scholastic team and Edwin
Hirt who received honorable mention. Among the swimmers are Frank Barbin and
Dan Carapellucci, while our basketball stars arc Vernon Nestor, William Walsh, Harry
Tsorvas, and Joe Lewis.
The first social event of the year was a corn roast at rhe South County Park. What
a wonderful tune wc had that day in spite of all the rain!

The next big affair was Family Night which was held on November 25. Wasn't
that a wonderful event with the Scotch men. the colorful gypsies, and the old-fashioned
flower girls? Every kind of amusement was to be had, even to playing golf. Family
Night was a wonderful achievement in every way, but especially in the financial way.
However, the crowning event of the Senior year was the Prom which was given
for the Senior-A's January 16, at the South Hills Country Club with Bill Weixcl’s
Band supplying the music. The dance programs were in Carrick’s colors, the cover
being blue printed with gold letters. The Prom is acclaimed to be one of the nicest
ever given by Carrick High School.
We are soon to leave the school and the June Class of 1931 will always look back
with fondest memories to those days in Carrick High School.

Class IVll
i, the classes of 1931, of Carrick High School, who, for the past four
years have accumulated much talent, mischief, and-so-forth, now
realize that our role as Seniors is slowly pushing its way out of our
reach forever. We deem it best, therefore, to distribute the virtues
of these classes with our own hands to those friends to whose needs
they seem best fitted. Therefore, being about to pass out of this
sphere of education in full possession of a cramshell mind, well-trained memory, and
almost superhuman understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testa-
ment, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises, made by us at any
time heretofore.
ARTICLE I
Item i—We give and bequeath to the faculty, who have been our instructors in
all the wisdom of the ages, a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peace-
ful dreams.
Item 11—To the Freshman class (that is to be)—any overlooked cuds of gum we
may have left adhering to the underside of desks, cafeteria tables, banisters and assemb-
ly seats.
Item in—To the Sophomore and Junior classes we bequeath any stubs of pencils,
erasers, or scraps of paper that we may inadvertently leave behind us in the excitement
and haste of gathering up our cherished treasures. May they feel free to make use> of
them and feel, perhaps, that they may, in some mystic way, impart some of our know-
ledge, to them.
ARTICLE II
Item i—To Mr. Henning we leave all our talent as salesmen; he may need it for
the future salesmanship classes.
CTzx x~i~4 vivF
ITEM II—To the next graduating class we will the esteemed gentleman whose hones
have creaked unmercifully in the glass case of Room 9. May he haunt you, too 1 ! !
Item Ill—The class bequeaths its honor pennant and honor banner to the next class
who have the ability to obtain them.
Item iv—Alice Miller, Helen Fleming and Marian Waite bequeath their locker
“Jo-Jo" to the next unfortunate occupant. May its sides merrily bulge!
Item V—Joe Schmcilcr (that wittiest of the witty) willingly wills his wit to Noble
Greaves..
Item vi—Merrill Linhart gladly wills a pair of broad shoulders, laden with re-
sponsibility to all future Class Presidents.
Item vii—Eunice Peebles requests that her curly hair lie given to Ruth Johns to
add a touch of feminity to the aforesaid.
Item viii—Paul Schade bequeaths his genius as a chemist to his brother, Robert,
and also graciously bestows his most “dcaconish" expression to all those not afflicted
with freckles or hang-nails.
Item IX—Jimmy Poth confers his literary talent upon Chester Quinn His cov-
eted rivalry with the Prince of Wales he wishes to maintain.
Item X—Kate Baxmeicr bequeaths a rollicking good sense of humor to Virginia
Heckler, in hopes that her funny bone may stand the strain
ARTICLE III
Item i—We, the honorable Senior class, leave our ingenuity in obtaining the South
Hills Country Club and Billy Weitzel’s orchestra for the Senior Prom to the Jumor-A
Class.
Item ii—To the football team next year the ability of Middy Hahne and Ed Hirt.
We couldn't induce Dan Carapellucci to surrender his.
Item iv—Helen Kerkhan, owing to the present depression, wills a moth infected
raccoon coat to anyone owning a can of “Flit.” It isn't the initial cost, it's the upkeep
Item v—To any Carrick student who is willing to accept it, Julius Petrones wills
his wonderful ability to sing; he is going to take up dancing.
Item vi—To Betty Thomas—Margaret Thomas’ ancestors. She feels she will not
need them anymore. She can face the world behind her own coat of paint
Item vii—Alice McCabe, with best wishes, bestows on Muriel Zimmerman, her
stature.
Item viii—Adelaide Goss, Mary Lewis and Mildred Benz leave to any three
blondes in the school their power over certain dark haired gentlemen.
Item ix—To Glen Winterhalter, Helen Wagner wills her newly acquired ability
to paint.
CONCLUSION
We, the members of the '31 classes do appoint the members of the faculty as exe-
cutors in order that they will carry out our requests to the best advantage.


Class Prophecy
T has been fifteen years since we left Carrick High and during that
time many of our classmates have become very successful in their
chosen line of work As the years have flown by, the class of '31
has scattered itself all over the globe.
When Lucy and I graduated from college our graduation present
was a trip around the world. First, we decided to visit the places
of interest in the United States.
We boarded the train for Cleveland, which was our
first stop, where, to our surprise, we ran into none other than Kate Baxmeier and Edna
Reber, who were both staying at the Clifton Hotel. After we had talked over old
times, they informed us that they were both teachers in one of the high schools, and
they gave us the more astonishing news that Ted Dawe and Carl Conrad were the pro-
prietors of the Clifton Hotel and that Howard Rees was its manager. Before leaving
Cleveland we met with a slight accident. We hastened to the nearest doctor, and whom
do you think we met but Dr. Burkhart with Mildred Benz as his nurse!
Once more we were on our way across the continent, always meeting old friends.
In St Louis wc met Daniel Fanzo, and Dan Carapellucci, and their secretaries, Sylvia
Earnest and Helen Beisel. The two Dans were partners in a large contracting company.
They told us that Ruth Hartman and Grace Ahrenholtz were both kindergarten
teachers and that Ruth Burns and Gladys Mullen taught in the neighboring high school.
Due to our limited stay in the city, we left without seeing them, much to our regret.
In Kansas City we met the famous oil magnate, John Bray, and his secretary,
Grace Brubach. Also in his employ were Fenella Coates and Ruth Bronder who did the
office work. In the same city we saw Ross Peden, a prospering pharmacist, and his
clerk, Andy Hall, who boarded at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mel Wertman.

Since we had some more time before we could take the boat for China, we decided
to see some more of the golden west. On our trip through California we met Betty
Emery, who taught school and also made talking pictures. Behind an immense pile of
books in the public library' we saw Helen Fleming, while farther down the street we
saw Florence Nesbit, a telephone operator, and Philip Friday, the banker. On arriving
at the station in San Francisco, we saw Frank Allen, the station keeper, and Jack Rob-
son, the manager.
We traveled over Europe, stopping at many interesting places. In Berlin we at-
tended a conference at which there were many famous doctors. Among these was
Doctor Fcigcr, who told us that he had his offices in Berlin, and that his nurse was
Martha Mary' McCombs. In that same city' Emma Sutter was teaching school and it was
also there that we heard of the famous opera singer, Marian Waite. We next visited
Italy. At Florence we met Myrtle Schenk, Alpha Hess, and Mary' Kelly, who were
entering their pictures in an art exhibition which was being held there
Our next stop, Paris, was very' delightful. Dr. Milo Kirk, who was spending the
summer in the city, showed us all of the sights. We attended many theatres during
our stay, and one evening we saw Joe Schmeiler and Jack Harris in a delightful comedy.
Of course while we were in Paris it was very' necessary' to sec some of the latest fashions
so we visited Dorothy' Taylor’s modiste shoppe.
We finished our travel in Europe, meeting old friends wherever we went, but by'
this time we were getting homesick and returned to the United States The v)ery first
person we saw after we landed was the editor-in-chief of the New York Times, James
Poth. He ushered us to his office building, where we saw Katharine Schwartz, his
society' reporter, and Louella Hatfield, Mabel Sauers, and Selma Sauers, his steno-
graphers. Our next visit was to one of the largest theatres in New York. Then came
the surprise of all the surprises, for there we found John Heber as manager, and. Wil-
bert Sidehcimcr and Robert McGowan who put on a very' popular comedian act.
While we were watching the performance we saw the wonderful organist, Clara
Schwartz. We then decided to see some of the business side of life, so we visited a
broker’s office in Wall Street. In charge of this concern was Julius Munster, our busi-
ness man.
Dr. Hirt, the school director, told us of the wonderful new hospital that had been
built. On the staff were Dr. Adolph Winter, Dr. Koenig, and Dr. Rick. When we
visited the hospital it seemed that most of our former classmates were either nurses or
patients, because Mae Schneider, Alice McCabe, Irene Kirnak, Marie Anderson, Naomi
Hodgson, Vera Williams and Betty Apel were nurses. Adelaide Goss, who had fallen
down the cellar steps and injured her knee, was a patient. We went to Adelaide's
room to console her, and in the conversation she told us that Mary Lewis was married
and living in Mt. Lebanon and that William Walsh was general manager of Jones and
Laughlin Steel Company Now, since we have returned home tired and happy, we
have decided that the old world is not such a large place after all.
Class Play - June 1931
ONE of us would have missed that wonderful production, “First
Floor Front,” given by the June ’31 Class, March 19 and 20.
Peter Pendleton looked just like a big butter an' egg man, an'
when he smiled—did you see that row of pearls? Oh! Oh! My ideal!
An’ was 1 jealous of Jane, the maid, when Peter fell in love with
her. She was so cute though, that I wouldn't have had a chance!—
; always get left somehow!
Didn't you just despise that scoundrel lawyer, Jeffrey Jordan—always lookin for
trouble. I coulda’ thrown a grapefruit at 'im. I did think his mustache was deevine
though.
Wasn't Nell Bailey the most stunning stenographer? She was smart, too—always
knew just the right thing to say an' do. No wonder Arthur Newman, the dentist, had
such a big crush on her. Arthur never would get excited about anything, would he?
Yes, he did once, too, and I liked him best then.
Couldn't you just have died laughin' at Horace Hall, the drug clerk? Oh, me!
When he ate that big banana I fell right off the scat and one of the ushers hadda’ pick
me off the floor. Imagine!
I wonder how Bertram Black could ever get so all excited about an ol' hardware
store? Sich a man! All those swell girls around and he goes nuts about a hardware
store.
Wasn't Mrs. Beckwith a scream? Her and her fried potatoes. Dear me! I bet


Mr. Beckwith, her husband, led a great life, bein' henpecked all the tune.
I thought Emma Martin, the landlady, was so kind lookin’. She seemed so nice I
just loved her
I nearly died when I saw that ancient school teacher, Miss Conover. How did
she ever learn to walk that way? She musta' practiced for hours.
Wasn't that other school teacher, Miss Lisa Layton, cute? She was an awful flirt
though. I guess she never got her school papers marked.
Oh, dear me, was that sheriff the berries? Didn't he look brave with that big hat
all over his head, an' that great big star stuck on his vest?
Those policemen-----well, words just fail me. You know I was scared of that one
with the big black whiskers, but I thought the other one was real nice.
That sure was one grand play. If you didn't see it, you missed a masterpiece. It
was chuck full of mystery and humor, and could those characters act? It's a wonder
Warner Brothers haven't signed them up, they were so good
I guess you'd like to know who took all those parts I've been ravin' about. Well,
here they are: Peter Pendietin, Edwin Hirt; Jane, Evelyn Morouse; Jeffrey Jordan,
Daniel Carapellucci; Nell Bailey, Katharine Schwartz; Arthur Newman, Harry Tsor-
vas; Horace Hall, Vernon Nestor; Bertram Black, Frank Stockdale; Mrs. Beckwith,
Julia 'Zajdzinski; Mr. Beckwith, Samuel Burkhart; Emma Martin, Dorothy Schmidt;
Miss Annie Conover, Irene Kirnak; Miss Lisa Layton, Mildred Benz; the Sheriff, Mil-
ton Wright; the Policemen, Wilbert Sidehamer and John Heber.

Senior Family Night
HE June 1931 Senior Class exhibited one of its biggest and most
brilliant affairs on Thursday evening, November 20, 1930, in the
annual Family Night. After weeks of planning and preparation
on the part of the sponsors and various committees, a program of
unique entertainment and fun was presented for the enjoyment of
the parents, brothers, sisters, friends and neighbors of Carrick High
students.
Heretofore, Family Night had been more or less of a stage show, after which danc-
ing was enjoyed on the gymnasium floor. The 1931 Seniors, in order to be unusual,
and to create more interest, elaborated upon eight features, instead of two.
A striking stage presentation of Scotch flavor, supervised by Sybil Gikling, was en-
thusiastically received. The program featured the Carnegie Tech Kiltie Band, and a
noted bagpipe soloist, as well as class talent.
The unusual appearance of Joe Lewis in kilts, carrying a supply of highly colored
balloons, drew crowds toward Room 5. Once there, Joe cleverly transferred the un-
suspecting persons into the clutches of the barkers of the “White Elephant Auction,”
Julius Munster and Vernon Nestor. They rapidly gave up ownership of a consider-
able number of nickels and dimes in exchange for valuable and less valuable, articles
offered for sale
To the snappy strains of “Jimmie Horne's Nightingale Orchestra", the jazz bandits
were enabled to demonstrate the latest steps of the dancing art throughout the entire
evening in the gymnasium. Specialty dances and an elimination dance were held. A
beautiful prize was given for the latter. The Tech Kilties were an added attraction
during the stage show intermissions, too, according to some of Carrick's fair maidens.
The most unique feature of the entire evening, and probably the one to which the
public inclined most favorably, was the “Gypsy Tea Room. ' Room 6 was cleverly re-
modeled from a mere recitation hall to a gypsy den of an extremely mysterious atmos-
phere. Gypsy colors were carried out, the lights were dimmed, while, in the back-
ground soft strains of a radio orchestra floated on the air. Delightful gypsy waitresses
served tea and cakes to many interested in the deep, dark secrets of the future, revealed
by Signaro Madcrio, a true Spanish gypsy.
The long expected evening passed rapidly and now the memory of its gaiety has
passed from many minds; but it is still a happy thought to the seniors that their efforts
were so enthusiatically accepted. Much credit is due to the general chairman. Dorothy
Schmidt, and to the committee chairmen. However, we believe that Family Night suc-
cess was due not merely to the work of the committees, the class, the sponsors, and
faculty members, but to the unfailing cooperation and the splendid school spirit so
clearly displayed by every Carrick High School student.

Tennis
N the past four years, tennis has been a favorite sport in Carrick
High School, in which both boys and girls participated. In the school
an elimination tournament held in the spring of the year, the school
champion and runner-up arc chosen to represent the school. Last
year “Tish” Schmidt defeated the representatives from five other
city high schools and was awarded a silver medal. In addition to
this Carrick High School was the first high school to gain possession of a silver trophy
presented by Mrs. Taylor-Alldcrdice for the achievement.
Since “Tish” and “Madge” Pfeifer, Carrick’s runner-up, were lost by graduation,
Miss Paul was forced to build up new players. Last June, in the inter-school tourna-
ment, Anna Morgan and Dorothy Kohler were skilled enough to defeat the others and
were chosen the representatives of Carrick High School for the Seniors, while Virginia
Cottrell, Dorothy Englert, Rebecca Neiplin, and Ethel Schaub made up the Junior High
team.
The girls who received modified letters are as follows:
Seniors—D. Kohler and A. Morgan.
Juniors—V. Cottrell and E. Schaub.
Numerals—D. Englert and R. Neiplin.
Gnrrtdd'
Football
LTHOUGH the results of Carrick High School's difficult grid
schedule of last season arc not spectacular, they arc by no means a
disappointment to the team's numerous followers. It is regarded as
a successful season by those who understood the various
confronting the coaches and the “ups and downs” of a football game.
After practice was started in the last week of August it became evi-
dent that many posts in the team's lineup would have to be occupied by candidates who
had little or no previous experience. However, the boys worked hard and a “grid
machine which had a fast running attack and strong defense was soon built up.
To Coach Lyons and Line Coach Replogle goes much credit for developing th?
team which so ably carried the honor of the school into the field of athletics. Mr Rep-
logle devoted his time to building the powerful fast charging line while Mr. Lyons for-
mulated the plays and taught the entire squad how to use them. Mr Reniers deserves
many thanks for his fine work in keeping the morale of the team in a fighting condition
and for the good gained from his impressive, inspirational speeches.
The season was opened by a game with Oliver High, one of the most powerful
teams in the section, which ended in a scoreless tie and served to display Carrick's
strong defensive power but rather weak offense. Then came the contest with Westing-
house which resulted in the “Silver Lakers” being on the winning side of a 2 5-0 score.
The game being non-scctional, did not affect the standing of the Blue and Gold in the
race for the city title. This was followed by a bitterly contested defeat at the hands
of McKeesport High School. In quick succession Carrick matched Langley in a score-
less tie and succumbed to Allegheny's forward passes but rallied in the later stages of
the game to clinch the score six to six. In the meet with Perry the warriors of the
Blue and Gold emerged victorious, having twice crossed the enemy goal line but failing
to convert the points. The last game played with the traditional rivals, South Hills,
proved the Carrickites to be the much superior team but lacking the goal line punch
necessary to break the scoreless deadlock.
Several individual players have shown outstanding performance and deserve special
recognition for their fine work. Dan Carapcllucci secured the position of guard on the
Press all-scholastic first team; “Mid” Hahn was awarded the fullback position on the
second team; and the honorable mentions were Hirt as end, and Petrencs, tackle; and
Captain John Weber, halfback. Hahn and Weber, Carrick's chief ground gamers,
played behind a line that was one of the best in the city. These boys and the others
who have done their best to uphold the school on the football field, merit the most sin-
cere congratulations and appreciation of Carrick High and the community which it
represents.
The following received varsity letters: Hirt, Pctrence, Carapcllucci, Versharen,
Wallace, Linhart, Kelly, Chandoha, F. Lewis, Mid Hahn, Sieman, and Captain Weber.

Boys' Basketball
LTHOUGH Coach Rcplogle's proteges did not attain the success they
planned for, it may be said that they had a fair season and establish-
ed a better record than any Carrick High School basketball team
heretofore. Coach Replogle should be given much credit for de-
veloping basketball teams in Carrick High for there is no doubt that
the teams are improving even though there is a lack of material in
comparison with the other teams in the league.
All the members of the team performed very well and deserve all the credit which
is coming to them. Captain Thrcnhauser was undoubtedly the outstanding player of
the season. He was awarded honorable mention in the all-scholastic Section II team,
and was also elected captain of the Carrick High School basketball team for next year.
“Fluke” Lewis, Nestor, and Tsorvas also displayed excellent basketball ability. Al-
though Melvin Wertman only played half of the season, he played an excellent game
of basketball.
The lettermen for this year are: Captain D. Thrcnhauser, F. Lewis, J. Lewis, V.
Nestor, H. Tsorvas, W. Walsh, M. Wertman, R. Whetzel, and N. Greaves, manager.

Girls Basketball
HIS year the regulations for Girls' Basketball were changed again.
Under the new plan, each team was scheduled for only one game
with each of the other class teams. Teams of the lower grades were
given handicaps when playing with girls from higher grades to in-
sure fairness. The four teams making the largest number of points
were then to play an elimination tournament to determine the school
championship.
; There was keen rivalry between the various class teams in Carrick High. The
Tenth Grade was victorius in two games but lost four. The Eleventh Grade scored
four successes and suffered three defeats. The Seniors had the ability to win six out
of seven. The present Senior team won the Activity Cup last year and were in great
hopes of keeping it, but, since the games were played during their busiest seasons, mem-
bers of the team were unable to participate in all of the games. This gave the Eleventh
Grade the advantage and they succeeded in winning the championship game.
The following girls received varsity letters and certificates for participating in and
refereeing basketball games: Peg Bruce, Mary Lewis, and Lulu Stilley. Virginia Cott-
rell and Ethel Schaub, from Junior High, received the same for earning one hundred!
and fifty points in basketball and tennis.
Cnyrtclvl'
Boys' Swimming
HIS year the Carrick High School Swimming Team enjoyed a very
successful season. Led by their efficient Coach Wchrlc and Cap'
tain Carapellucci, the boys won four of their seven meets, with other
city high schools.
Due to the mid-year graduation the team lost the support of
John Bray and Joseph Schmeiler. Undaunted by this loss, the re-
maining boys did their best and placed second in the city meet at Fifth Avenue High
School. At this meet, Frank Barbin, who displayed wonderful form in back-stroke
throughout the season, succeeded in coming in first and breaking the city back-stroke
record. Davidson, the consistent scorer on the squad, also broke a record and placed
first in the 220 yard swim, while Hoffmann came in second in the medley.
Derland Johnson, noted A M.A. champion diver, was disqualified and unable to
compete in the last four meets, due to a misunderstanding of the swimming rules. Last
year Johnson placed first in the finals of Western Pennsylvania. As the swimming
season was over at the time of the Western Pennsylvania meet this year, Johnson was
permitted to enter, and again honored Carrick High School by placing first. Others
who qualified in this meet are: in the back-stroke, Evans took fourth place, Davidson
placed third in the 220 and the relay team composed of Dan Carapellucci, Hoffman,
Richard Beech, and Donald Davidson, beat the city champions and took third place.
This years lettermen are: Captain Carapellucci, Frank Barbin, John Bray, Thomas
Evans, Derland Johnston, Walter Lochmiller, Vincent McGowan, and Jos. Schmeiler.
Girls' Swimming
EVER before have Carrick’s mermaids made such a wonderful show-
ing as they made this season. When Miss Waterman, the coach,
called for the first practice, there was a large turn out and all of the
girls were right with her to make this their most successful season.
They began in earnest and practiced strenuously throughout the sea-
son. As a result, the Junior team tied with South High for the first
place in the championship meet held at Fifth'Avenue High School, October 27, 1930,
and was awarded a silver trophy by the Pittsburgh Press. Margaret Powell broke the
city back stroke record and the relay team composed of Bubenheim, Ansell, Evans, and
Cottrell, broke another record, at the same meet, by swimming the relay in 64.4 seconds.
The Senior team fared well, but was not so successful as the Juniors. The Senior
relay team also made an excellent showing by taking second place. The girls who made
up the team and received medals are: M. Bruce, V. Keller, M. Sauerburger, and G.
Neiderburger.
The following girls received school letters:
G. Neiderburger, and M. Sauerburger.

Senior Boys’ Volleyball
R. Hurst has experienced unusual success in coaching the Boys
Senior Volleyball team of 1930-31. Last year they won the sectional
championship, thus giving them the honor of compel ing in the City
Championship Tournament. Though the opponents presented some
very formidable aggregations, our team emerged with third place.
When the Tn-State Tournament began, the home boys entered.
pon t c sounding of the final whistle they were the proud possessors of the runner-up
position. For this feat the school received a handsome trophy and each member of the
team received a silver medal.
Carrick defeated Taylor-Allderdice, Fifth Avenue, Connelly, Schenley and West-
inghouse in inter-sectional games. The team also defeated South and Fifth Avenue in
sectional games for which Carrick won the Sectional title. Carrick defeated Connelly
for the city title but was defeated by Westinghouse in the final city championship game.
As a whole, however, it was a very' successful season for Carrick.
The lettermen are: Richard Wallace, captain; George Pfeil, Richard Whetzel,
Taras Chandoha, James Smith, Edward Bezchowski, Carl Rogers, Lloyd Wihle, Burton
Jarrett, and Henry Bier, manager.

Girls' Volleyball
HE Carrick High girls have not had a Varsity Volleyball team for
the last three years, but they have had class teams. The class teams
consisted of nine regular players and three substitutes. Each team
played a game with the other class teams, and the two teams scoring
the most points played an elimination game to decide which team
would win the school championship. For the past years the present
Sophomore team had won the championship, but this year they were defeated by the
Senior team, which was awarded the championship.
The Senior team is composed of Captain, Peg Bruce, Helen Beisel, Jewel Braun,
Margaret Cummings, Josephine DeBence, Mary Dobson, Marion Hartner, Irene Kir-
nak, Catherine Lahr, Mary Lewis, Martha Rockhill, and Dorothy Wiliock.
In the Junior High division the eighth grade was awarded the championship by
winning every game played. The team is made up of the following members: Captain,
Evelyn Swope; Lillian Bubenheim, Hilda Demmel, Caroline Hartman, Edith Hoover,
Ruth Huber, Dorothy Munz, Dorothy Robbins, and Ruth Warman.
Tennis
HE prospects for the coming season are exceedingly bright in spite
of the fact that Carrick did not compile an impressive record last4
season, for Coach Sprenkle will have available five lettermen from
last year's combination. These five netmen, Tsorvas, Kelly, Lucas,
Henderson and Nestor, together with an unusually large number of
aspirants for positions on the varsity will give Carrick one of the
best balance teams to ever represent the Blue and Gold on the courts.
Interest in tennis seems to be at a higher point than ever before in Carrick High
School. This fact is indicated by the large enrollment of the Tennis Club which boasts
of a membership of thirty-five ardent tennis fans. This number favorably compares
with the turn-out for the so-called major sports.
Although it is too early for active practice, plans are already being made for the
season. Arrangements are underway for matches with nearby schools and the impend-
ing season should prove to be an interesting and highly successful one.


Student Activity Council
HE Student Activity Council, as the name implies, is that organisa-
tion in Carrick High which finances and supervises all extra-curricu-
lar activities of the school and aids in practically all matters that
concern the student body as a whole.
The history of the Activity Council is brief. Not since 1925
had Carrick had any form of student government, but in September,
1928, a representative body, the Student Council, was organized to give to the students
a chance to regulate and control their own activities. This council consisted of chosen
representatives from every grade in the school and an assisting group of faculty advisors.
In the first semester of this new body’s existence, the Student Activity Ticket system
was installed. This move placed all the responsibility of school activities into the hands
of the Council. The success of the Activity Ticket was instantly assured. It met with
the immediate approval of the students, for not only did it cut in half the annual ex-
penses of each pupil, but its simplicity and adaptability were decided advantages over
the former method of soliciting separately for each school function. Each year the sale
of Activity Tickets has been increasing and today, in this era of hard times, the student
body is realizing and appreciating more than ever the benefits derived from this prac-
tical plan.

The Carrickulum
HE Carrickulum is as old as Carrick High itself. Since its inception
seven years ago it has developed from a one-page insert in the Hill
Top Record to the present bi-weekly journal. The beginning of the
present school term marked the adoption of a new policy in regard
to the publication of the Carrickulum. The staff was organized into
a journalism class, which meets one period daily under the tutilage
and supervision of Miss C. Gloria Paul. The new arrangement permits the staff mem-
bers to devote more time to their work than was possible when the editing was purely
an extra-curricular activity and the result is a superior journalistic production.
At the annual Carrickulum banquet last February four staff members, two of whom
arc now alumni, were accepted as full-fledged associates in the Quill and Scroll, inter-
national honorary society of high school journalists.. Freda M. Frey, James L. Poth,
Clara Schwartz, and Marie Hamel are Carrick's representatives in the Quill and Scroll.

The Orchestra
HE Senior Orchestra is one of the most active clubs in Carrick High
School. It is composed of thirty students who meet regularly as a
class group during the fourth period for rehearsals. The orchestra
is called upon many times to assist in assemblies, class plays, oper-
ettas, and graduation exercises. The group responds very willingly
and is always very eager to aid in the success of all school activities.
ach year the orchestra delights the assemblies, both Junior and Senior, with a
s>mp ony concert. It is the ambition of the members to improve the standard of their
work in each annual program.
The orchestra, originated in 1924, is one of the oldest organizations of the school.
It has been directed for the last four years by Mr. McIlroy.
Four members of Carrick's orchestra have been admitted to the All-City High
School Orchestra. They are: Wilma Meise and Norbert Kotlarz, violinists; James
Isaacs, cellist; and Robert Sprenkle, oboeist. They are the first students from Carrick
High to win this honor and the school feels very proud of their success.

The Carrick School Band
High School Band is one of Carrick's outstanding school organ-
izations. The growth and success of the Band is largely due to the
earnest and untiring efforts of the director, Mr. A. A. Hart. Since
1927, when it was first organized by Mr. Joseph Replogle, the Band
has progressed rapidly in merit and membership. Mr. Hart is also
director of the Junior Band, an organization which meets every
morning at 8:00 for those students who aspire to the membership of the Senior Band,
and are willing to give their time and energy for obtaining the desired knowledge of a
musical instrument. The Senior Band furnishes the music at the football and baseball
games and serves as an incentive to both the team and student body. They also enter-
tain the assemblies with their programs. This group meets three eighth periods and
two activity periods a week and receives the full credit of a regular subject for their
efforts.
The Band members are the proud possessors of Blue and Gold uniforms which they
display when rendering their services at the games or assembly programs. The future
holds many wonderful opportunities for the Band and, under the able direction of Mr.
Hart, will realize the hopes of the students of Carrick High for this rapidly progressing
organization.

The Secretaries' Club
HE Secretaries' Club, one of the newest organizations in Carrick High
High School, has again organized for its second semester's work'.
Only those who have worked in the office or the teacher's work-room
are eligible for membership. The club is composed of eighteen com-
mercial students who have applied for the work and have been
especially selected by the commercial teacher. The duties are bene-
ficial to the students in that they teach the best ways of applying for a position, answer
ing the telephone, and particularly train him to rely upon his own judgment. The
paramount idea for such a society is to familiarize business students with those tasks
they will encounter in the business world. Every Monday, the secretaries meet in the
teachers work-room where, with their sponsor. Miss Jamison, they discuss the problems
of the week. Closely connected with the Secretaries’ Club is the School Bank, with
Rose Moritz as school cashier and John Koppitz as bookkeeper.

The Stage Crew
T is necessary in a school, to have some authorized means for taking
care of the stage and its properties. For this purpose the Stage Crew,
originally the Shop Club, was organized in Carrick High School.
Mr. Robbins, the manual training teacher, was chosen as sponsor.
In addition to teaching his classes, Mr. Robbins has willingly sacri-
ficed a great deal of his time for the advancement of the club. Mr.
Mathias also has supported this club in all its undertakings.
Unlike most clubs the Stage Crew has certain membership requirements. A mem-
ber must be chosen by the sponsor and recommended by a fellow student already on the
Crew. It is necessary that he possesses an outstanding ability in manual-training and
should be a member of a shop class. The member must also have a good rating in his
studies because much of the work is done during school hours and he must sacrifice
some of his time to this work.

Girls' Glee Club
INCE 1925 the Girls' Glee Club, under the sponsorship of Miss

gram each semester usually in the form of a cantata. This semes-
ters cantata will be given on May Day and is entitled, “Near to
The principal characters are: Helen Grau, May Queen; her attend-

Boys' Glee Club
R. McIlroy reorganized the Boys' Glee Club of Carrick High School
this semester. For several semesters there had been no musical
organization for boys but renewed interest in music by the high
school boys brought about a demand for such a club in February.
The purpose of the club is obviously for voice culture and enter'
tainment. Its membership of thirty includes many Senior-A boys.
The Tuesday club period is used for practicing old favorite songs as well as some more
modern numbers, and it is a source of enjoyment to all participating members. The
boys gave a very interesting assembly program this semester, much to the delight of the
student body. They proved themselves to be much interested in this worthwhile ac-
tivity and Carrick High School can look forward to a growing organization in the Boys’
Glee Club.

The Ukulele Club

OT everyone is fortunate enough io have the opportunity ol visiting
the Hawaiian Islands and listening to the mellow tones of a ukulele.
Students oi Carrick High may have this rare and delightful pleasure
without going to Hawaii. Every Monday at Activity Period a group
of girls known as the "Ukulele Club” assemble in Room 33 for forty-
five minutes of entertainment and instruction. The usual business
meeting is followed by a period in which the girls learn to play the latest popular songs.
Experience in playing the uke is not necessary for membership in this organization, as
the experienced members help to reveal the mysteries of the uke to the inexperienced
members. The members under the direction of the instructoress, Lucille Sellers, have
progressed rapidly and at the end of the semester it will be quite difficult to detect the
inexperienced members from the experienced players.

The Cheer-Up Club
HE Cheer-Up Club has been in operation every semester since 1926
with the exception of one term in 1929. In September of 1930 the
club was again organized by Miss Gloria Paul, and has had a quiet,
but successful year.
The purpose of this club is to keep in contact with all the stu-
dents who are absent from school. In order to carry on this work
successfully, it has been necessary for the Cheer-Up representative to keep a regular
attendance record. The record is kept so that the representative will know the exact
number of days each person is absent. If any student is absent for three successive.
days, the Cheer-Up representative telephones the home of the student in order to learn
the cause for this absnee. If the student is ill, a cheer-up card is sent to him, and if he
is seriously ill for any length of time, flowers and a Carrickulum are also sent him as an
expression of cheer.

The Republican Chib
Aims: The Republican Club is a non-partisian organization whose purpose is to
familiarize the student with political parties in all their phases and aspects—origin,
history, tenents, leaders and importance. The members delve into the fields of sociol-
ogy, economics and political history. The modern political party as an institution—its
policies, purposesand methods—receive special attention, and present day governmental
procedure is considered in its relation to political economy.
Activities: The Republican Club supplements its weekly assignment reports by
periods of open discussion, wherein one may ease his troubled breast and receive eluci-
dation on any obtusity which may be vexing him. When the weather is not too in-
clement the entire group takes a short stroll through the nearby fields.
The high light of the semester is the social function (which no self-respecting cynic
would attend) either a dance or a party. The officers have not yet completed final
arrangements for this affair.

Club is not directly concerned with this drama, but it does faciliatc
the chances of making a success of the great drama. In the club the
students acquire poise and self-control and an appreciation for dra-
matic art.
Recently the club presented in assembly a short play called “A
Balanced Diet,” in which the mother and oldest daughter tried to feed the father a bal-
anced ration. Pa was rebellious, but finally gave in and admitted the food was good.
Joseph Doyle gave a splendid performance as Dean, the rebellious father; Vera
Williams supported him in the role of “Mrs. Dean,” while “Carrie Dean” the country
girl with city ideas was portrayed by Ruth Donnally.

The Art Club
HE purpose of the Senior Art Club, sponsored by Miss Miller, is to
further the interest in art in Carrick High School. The club work
is individual in that it gives each member an opportunity to develop
his own original ideas in the particular phase of art which interests
him. The work that has been completed so far consists of block-
prints, making of Christmas Cards, and a variety of posters. It has
been the custom of the Art Club to present a program in Assembly once each year.
Heretofore, the programs have consisted mainly of chalk-talks, but this semester the
club has an original idea. A play written by John Jasick, with the help of Alpha Hess,
Dorothy Kohler, and Virginia Heckler, will be presented. In connection with this
play the club will present new scenery to the school. At present the club is working
diligently for the success of the program which will be given when the scenery is com-
pleted. The president of the club, John Jasick, is painting this scenery.

Le Cercle Francias
TUDENTS of French, who are interested in improving their
pronunciation, and in acquiring fluency in speaking French, make
up Le Cercle Francais, one of the most eminent of clubs in Carrick
High School. This club offers opportunities for demonstrating
dramatic abilities as well as providing entertainment for the student
body. At least one play a semester is produced in the Junior and
Senior assemblies, and these, under the successful sponsorship of Miss Thompson, have
always been received with much laudation. Last semester the student body was highly
amused at the clever, three act comedy, “Nous Vcrrons.” At present the members of
the club arc devoting their best efforts to two one-act plays, “Rosalie” and “Le Bureau
de Telegraph”, which will be presented in assembly during May.

Mathematics Club

HE Mathematics Club has again organized this semester, beginning
its third year under the leadership of Mr. Hulley, who has sponsored
the club since it originated in Carrick High. Previously, the club
had been divided into three committees, which were assigned subjects
that were to be presented before the club. All of the subjects were
selected so as to bring before the members the most interesting and
most enjoyable side of mathematics. However, this semester the club is trying some-
thing new in the form of work. The new plan is to help or coach any boy whose
mathematics is troubling him. Under this plan, the club feels that it will help other
students as well as its members.
The sixteen members which make up the club are all attempting to further its aim:
"To promote interest in mathematics."

Junior and Senior Leaders' Clubs during the last year. Under the
sponsorship of Miss Clara Waterman and Miss Helen Paul, this club
has made steady progress. A varied form of program has been
followed; not only have the members become more efficient in con-
ducting gym and swimming classes, but they have learned the quali-
ties of good sportsmanship. These girls have improved thei? ability in playing such
games as tennis, basketball, volleyball, soccer, and even football, considered by some,
the roughest game of all. The members of this club were instructed in the art of danc-
ing and spent a great deal of time in improving their swimming strokes. The club
could not have experienced so much success, had it not been for the whole-hearted co-
operation and interest of every member.

club is limited to a select few. At the end of each report period the
members, under the guidance of their sponsor. Miss Wolfe, collect
the grade sheets, average the marks of each room in the Junior High,
and make a list of honor students in the various subjects. However,
the time of the club is not always devoted to work but many interesting and enjoyable
programs arc given by the members at the different meetings. In this way the mem-
bers are carrying out the main purpose of the club and still have some diversion

The Charm Club
N our modern social and business world there is nothing more highly
prized than a charming personality. Although there arc certain in'
herent characteristics which help to make one a charming person,
nevertheless, personal cleanliness and the observance of the most ac-
cepted rules of etiquette go a long way toward developing charm.
Realizing the full significance of this fact, the girls of Carrick High
in September, 1930, organized the first Charm Club.
The purpose of the club is to instruct those girls from the eighth and ninth grade
who may belong, that they may never have cause for embarrassment on account of un-
tidy personal appearance or lack of manners. With this in mind the members have
had many interesting discussions as to the care of the face, hair, hands, and clothes.
They are also ready to answer any questions you may have as to whether you should
eat ice-cream with a spoon, cut lettuce with a fork, or pay for your escorts' ticket when
you invite him to a girls’ dance. The girls really have learned many things that will
make them charming young ladies.
The present club of February-June 1931 has a membership of forty-five girls.

Good-Bye, Carrick, Good-Bye
School of ours wc love so well,
Dear old Carrick High, ’
Today to thee wc say farewell;
Good-bye, Carrick, Good-bye.
The years we've spent within thy halls
Were filled with friendships, true,
And pleasures that we'll ne'er forget;
Joys were many; cares were few.
But now at last the day has conic
When, with wishes fond and true,
To teachers, classmates, friends and thee,
We bid a sad adieu.
How oft, dear school, in later years,
In spite of wealth or fame,
Will we recall years spent with thee
And cherish thy dear name.
SchiMil of ours we love so well,
Dear old Carrick High,
The time has come to say farewell,
Good-bye, Carrick, Good-bye.
