"Hello. I'm writing a book about Ed McCluskey and his Farrell High basketball teams. I'm looking for information on his early, formative years. Anybody who knew him or has information about him, please call me. Brad 6105547201"

Hi! I'm looking to see if someone can help me here. I've been researching extras who appeared in George Romero's original Night of the Living Dead. I've seen a few people post that one of their teachers was a ghoul in the film. I'm trying to get more information who that may have been. One person said it may have been a history teacher, and another said Mr. Carter (** A correction on my part. The teachers name may have been Mr. Hunter. Please tag me in the reply or email me at [email protected]). I'm guessing this person was a teacher anywhere from 1968 - 1975 ish.

They can email or message me directly. Again this is specifically for the 1968 Night of the Living Dead, not Dawn of the Dead or any other film. If we can verify this we would like to add them to the Image Ten website as an extra with a bio.

**Thank you, Eric Borich, for donating this yearbook so we can all enjoy**

It took many hours to scan and correct each of the pages of the 1942 yearbook. Please take a look through the book and see if you recognize anyone and share stories. Check out page #75 and read the "interesting" obituary for a teacher named Mr. Halleck, who taught at South High.

Also, here is a list of what was happening in Pittsburgh in June of 1942 to help set the stage for this yearhook. This list below was provided by ChatGPT:

+Pittsburgh's steel industry was vital during WWII, producing massive amounts of steel for military use.

+Residents participated in aluminum scrap drives to support aircraft production.

+City-wide blackout drills were conducted as a precaution against potential enemy air raids.

+Citizens were encouraged to grow Victory Gardens to supplement food supplies.

+Labor strikes occurred in steel mills, with workers demanding better wages and conditions.

+The Red Cross in Pittsburgh organized blood drives and first aid training to support the war effort.

+Frequent War Bond drives were held to finance military operations, promoted by local celebrities and leaders.

+Theaters showed propaganda films to boost morale and support for the war.

+Recruitment centers saw an influx of young men enlisting in the military.

+Rationing was implemented, requiring residents to use ration books for essential goods.

Please enjoy the entire South High yearbook from 1971. You can scroll through each page, as I took the time to scan and crop each and every page myself. 😀
