My coach didn't let me start calling the pitches until it was obvious I was doing as good if not a better job than him. Looking over charts and patterns for hitters and the weakness in each hitter helps as a tool. If you as a catcher use those tools you make yourself a better pitch caller as you see first hand why they missed a pitch. Some catchers don't want to worry about the pitch calling.

How has major league baseball catchers equipment changed in the last 50 years?

Things you see today that you didn't see 50 years ago: 1) Catchers wear helmets instead of a regular baseball cap while behind the plate. 2) They wear masks that are like a 'bird cage' instead of the old mask. The metal is further away from the face than the old masks. 3) Some catchers wear masks that are a combination of a helmet and a mask instead of wearing a mask and helmet seperately. 4) Some catchers wear shin guards that cover the lower area of the thigh instead of those that stop at the knee. 5) Chest protectors have padding for the front of the right shoulder that old style protectors didn't.

Does a high school player need to have a catchers mitt on to play catcher?

No, but it is highly recommended. Some catchers use First baseman gloves instead, because they also have good padding. I do believe they have to have a padded mitt to catch. Catching fastballs is sometimes painful even with a catcher's mitt on.
