CATHERINE MATTHEWS CLASS VALEDICTORIAN The distinct honor of acting as the Class Valedictorian is always awarded to the senior who ranks first scholastic- ally in the entire class. By attaining that enviable record, Catherine Matthews deserves the honor of the Valedictor¬ ian of the Class of 1957. Cathy is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Millard T. Matthews. She is a member of Holy Angels Cathedral Parish, Gary, and attended that parochial school. At Noll High School Cathy was elected by the Faculty to the National Honor Society in her freshman year and has retained that membership throughout her four years. She also held membership in the Bi-Phy-Chem, an hon¬ orary science club, and participated in both the Noll Science Fair and the Northwestern Regional Science Fair. By popular vote among the students she was elected to the Student Administration and was also active in the Latin Club, Red Cross, and a member of the Marquette Staff. For the immediate future Cathy plans to continue her formal education at Marquette University where she plans to enter the medical field. EDWARD KOCZWARA CLASS SALUTATORIAN By attaining the highest academic record among the boys of the senior class, Edward Koczwara has achieved the distinction of being named the Salutatorian of the Class of 1957. Ed is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Koczwara and a member of St. Stanislaus Parish, East Chicago. Before coming to Noll High School, he attended St. Stanislaus elementary school, from which he graduated with highest honors among his class. At Noll High Ed soon established an outstanding scholastic record. He was elected to the National Honor Society for four years. He was a member of the Bi-Phy- Chem Science Club for two years and participated in the annual Noll Science Fair during his junior and senior years. A well rounded education includes the physical as well as the intellectual. While at Noll, Ed was active in sports and participated in track and cross country. It was in these sports that he won his letter in the Monogram Club. Ed will continue his education in college, but those plans are still somewhat indefinite. 25

Senior Class Officers DOOLIN NAMED CLASS PRESIDENT The selection of senior class officers differs slightly from that of the underclassmen at Noll. While in the other classes, each home¬ room elects a complete set of officers, the seniors elect one president for the entire class. Each senior homeroom submits two candidates and the entire senior class chooses the one who will officially represent them. Each indi¬ vidual homeroom elects a vice-president, secre¬ tary, and treasurer. Shawn Doolin was selected by the seniors as their class president. Shawn, one of a fam¬ ily of twelve children, is a member of St. Joseph ' s Parish, Dyer. Choice of him as senior class president is evidence of his pleasing and popular personality and high ideals. While at Noll, Shawn was a representative to Indiana Boys ' State, and was active in ath¬ letics, especially track and baseball, and was a member of the Monogram Club.
