COONEY n lfnemoriam Life is short and art long, but there is an art in living which outlasts both. The finest of Mr. Cooney's art was in his life. Though we admire the visible product of his artistic talent, we shall always cherish first the memory of his life, of his character, and of his warm human kindness. Wfe respectfully dedicate this yearbook to our former teacher and friend, to whom we say farewell . . . until we meet again. PRESIDENT GRGVER CLEVELAND - RUTH C. BAURLE CS38fLl'OI' QVCZJQ aC!Vl.SQ4' U aafminlstratifve assistants PHILIP E. MCCAFFREY ANN A H. FINK 1 Q41 G!LCU'!Q.S' 50 LM' WH CQGCJQ XVhen the Class of Ianuary, 1953 entered Crover Cleveland, they were Alice in Blunderland. According to some, they then became the disciples of Rip Van XVinkle, and graduated the rivals of Paul Bunyan. Perhaps Baron Munchausen alone could do justice to the transformation. Folk tales are the tales of great achievement. They are the means by which primitive peoples remembered the deeds of those whom they admired for bravery, skill, cunning, and helpfulness. Folk tales are tales we all like to read and hear. They exist because we have given every minute sixty seconds full of honest labor, not Hin the dreaming of great things to do bye and byef' as the poet has Written. To the Class ot Ianuary, l953 we say au revoir as its record of loyalty and devotion to the ideals of Crover Cleveland High School passes from reality into a folk tale. 2 5 F , f 'S lxl ll .s, 'V Q 1 A 'Z X xx , 4, X ,x ., , -f f 24: 1 : Q WN' va-'Q K fi' A f f V Qxwiiw ffl' u A I 0 Si Q 4 - fm' A?

Nathaniel Schwartzburg Cgdofktales ana! Cgdofks Paul Bunyan, Rip Van Winkle, Ichabod Crane, Davy Crockett, and Alice in Wonderland are only a few of the folk characters we learned about in school. Through reading about them we were transformed from little children into the characters themselves. Perhaps we were Paul Bunyan drinking up a whole lake in one gulp, or the Headless Horseman riding through the darkness, or maybe the Mad Hatter of Alice in VVonderland. Our parents marvelled at the imagination needed to create such fantastic characters as found in any of these stories. But in school they aren't so fantastic. Look around you and compare some of the people and things you know, and see how closely some of them resemble these characters. Instead of reciting the Iabberwock we learned chemistry, the person saying, 'Tm late, lim latef' was a student and not a rabbit, The Headless Horseman, of course, was none other than our Regents with lehabod Crane the student going in to take them, and Rip Van Wiiikle was the student who fell asleep in class so often that it took him twenty years to graduate. That was the humorous side of our schooling, but there was also a serious side. Though we didn't always realize it, we were being prepared to leave the haven afforded our irnmaturity so that we would be ready to enter the tense fast-moving adult world. At this time we are engaged in a cold war and also what is officially known as a police action. Things like that are allowed to continue because there aren't enough people in this world educated to think for themselves. They were never prepared to become the kind of adults needed to make a country physically, morally, and socially strong. We cannot even say that those people are still in the phase of life that believes in fairy tales because they did not even have the opportunity to read them. VVe, in the United States, are extremely fortunate in having free higher education for those who have the intelligence to realize that it is through education and research that we can make this a world of civilized and peace-loving people. PATRICIA SEIDL '53 l l lQUQ'!ClflJ U S After many long and weary hours of hard work, one appreciates and welcomes an hour of recreation, informal education or entertainment. This is how students of Grover Cleveland hail the extracurricular activities. G.C.H.S. clubs have helped us to reach our ideals, understand situations and solve problems, bring about better understanding of our religions, and accomplish the fellowship we now cherish. The Latin Club through its various activities tries to bring its members a wider knowledge of classical literature and to give members an opportunity for wider fellowship and leadership for those who wish it. The club is under the excellent direction of Miss Light, Helen Caruso, first Consul, and Marian Muller, second Consul. This term the Deutscher Iugendring is under the direction of Mrs. VVchrmann. Ferdinand Barbatsehi and Elfriede Pfeiffer are the officers. The Iugendring tries to further the interest of students in study of German through pleasurable and educational activities, such as hikes, movies, plays and songs. The officers and Carol Lee Fuchs are members of the senior class. The Spanish Club this term went to the opera Carmen, to a Spanish museum, and to a delightful Spanish restaurant. These and other activities led the members to acquire a better knowledge of the culture of the Spanish- speaking countries. The club is under the direction of Mrs. Gallagher, and its oflicers are Iohn Pmotti, President, and Iudith Schreier, Vice-President. ln order to learn as much as possible about ltalian folklore, music, and customs, the Circolo Dante has, under the supervision of Mrs, Rieeardi, taken trips to the Italian movies and to the opera and has engaged in other helpful 12 activities. The oflicers are Rose Adamo, President, Anna Spiaggia, Vice- President, and Eleanor Buscemi, Secretary. For those Who enjoy debating, the Town Meeting Club, under the di- rection of Mrs. Paul, gives them an opportunity to voice their opinions. Members participate in Boro Forums which usually take place at Forest Hills High School. The otlicers are joseph Saladino and Rosalind Scotti. One other club that specializes in speakers is the Speakers' Bureau. The members under the supervision of Mr. Driscoll develop a skill in discussion and in advertising school projects. The oflicers are Katherine Turiano and lda Wray. Another of the civic clubs is the Theodore Roosevelt Club under the direction of Dr. Ryan. The President, Eileen Kaelin, along with Dr. Ryan teaches the application of the Colden Rule to everyday life and a Usquare deal for all as experienced by the great square dealer, Theodore Roosevelt. The club takes trips to the Roosevelt Club in New York. If ever you hear a great big bang or smell an odor that is simply out of this World, you can be sure it comes from the room where Mr. Taub's Crucible Chemistry Club is meeting. Here the ollieers, Frank Young and Anita Liotta, along with their fellow members, develop an interest in chemistry beyond the classroom. In order to promote a better understanding of hospital life for the nurses of the future, the Future Nurses League under the supervision of Miss Clausen has nurses from diiterent hospitals discuss with the members the subjects and activities each hospital offers. Pat Murphy and Eleanor Hartman served as oflieers. Students interested in art have a chance to learn about etching, silk- screening, block-printing and many other art processes in Miss Martin's 13 Poster Club. Also the members, including its officers, Evelyn Bubenheimer and Helen Caruso, beautify our school with posters for various school projects. The many activities of Miss O'Connor's Do Re Mi Club, which include trips, operas, and parties, prepare its members to be able to read music at sight. Even though they spend much of their time in reaching their aim, the club does not forget members when they are ill. Very often they send get-well cards and a gift of flowers. VVithout the Stage Crew, under the direction of Mr. Drew, many of our entertaining assemblies could not have been presented. The crew, whose captains are Thomas Aird, Robert Hathaway and Robert Maclntosh, try to make our extracurricular activities as entertaining as possible. The Cleveland Playshop under the direction of Mrs. Ahern gives thespians a chance to demonstrate their great and rare talent. Through pan- tomime, improvisation, and reports on theaters past and present, the mem- bers develop a critical and aesthetic appreciation of the theater. The ofliccrs are lean lluebsch and Letty Nunziato. By studying thc new edition of the Bible, the Martin Luther Club under the leadership of Mrs. Wiegziiid has aided Protestant young people to establish a better understanding of their faith. Adele Albrecht and Iune Perry served as officers. The aim of Menorah Club, by observance of holidays, talks by visiting Rabbis, and learning folk dances, is to teach love and respect for Iewish tra- ditions and culture. The club is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Lewin. The Newman Club which is made up of our Catholic students is ex- tremely interested in furthering the Christopher lVIovement. This is being accomplished by various interesting and educational activities which Mrs. Cooney, faculty leader of the club, plans.

Teacher Oswego State Teachers College I9 GQCZ O CZQQS Four years ago Grover Cleveland High School opened its doors to a new group of Freshmen. Many of us, right from the start, couldnlt get out of being tagged Hfreshiefl Those first few days we had to be on our guard, for the upper termers were in the business of giving out elevator passes. Not knowing that the only elevator in the school was for the help of Grover Cleveland, we all fell for it. The upper termers played many other tricks on us, but by thumbing through our handbooks we knew better. Once we knew our way around, we began to get interested in our school. We joined the C. O. and bought the Cleveland Herald. Many of us joined clubs and school teams. By doing this, we really got into that school spirit. VVC also upheld most of the C. O. affairs, such as the barn dances and the amateur contests. Soon our first term in high school ended. After our summer vacation, we began our last half year as freslnncn. This was an important term for all of us. It was at this time that the City of New York faced a serious crisis, the water shortage. We, the students of Crover Cleveland, did our best to help save water. In all our classes, no matter what subject, we were taught rules on how water should be saved each day. September through january, and our Freshman year came to an end. To this day, many of us can remember the good times we had in the Hrst year of our high school career. VVe then started our Sophomore Year and were proud to carry one less book. liven though we were ahead of the entering freshmen, we already looked down at the new group of bewildered scholars. Cur grade adviser sent for us one by one and scheduled our programs for the remainder of our four years in the school. The grade adviser's purpose was to prepare us for whatever Held we were interested in. The Senior Class of january 1953 would now like to thank our adviser for the successful job accomplished. In the fall term of our Sophomore year, tension got hold on most of us, for our Regents examinations drew near. As the date of the Regents exams carrie nearer and nearer, we couldn't stand the torture any longer. Finally they were over, and looking back on them we can see that they weren't so bad. Z0 After all, three hours was more than sufficient time in which to finish the examination. Thinking back to our Iunior Year, many of us thought that it was a year in which much was done. lmmediately, plans for lunior Day were made. ln the fall of 'Sl there was an anniversary of the school's founding to which all were invited. Iunior Day, the event that everyone was waiting for, finally came. The boys put on their Sunday best, and with their carnations in their lapels, were proud to celebrate such an important day. The girls looked so nice with their beautiful dresses that their male classmates didn't even recognize them. After school a dance was held for the Iuniors at which everyone had a good time. After it was all over and the corsages and carnations died, many of us couldn't wait until we celebrated our next class event, Senior Day and the Prom. ln Ianuary of the year 1952, many of us enjoyed the Musical Potpourri given by the music department. In the spring of '52 the music department once more presented a wonderful event. This time an operetta, Countess Maritza. Yes, our Iunior year was the best, for We have so many memories which will never be forgotten. We have now reached the goal that everyone has striven for all the Way through school, becoming a senior. No longer must we look up to others, for we have reached the time where we are allowed to wear our senior hats and pins. The everlasting fear of inspectors and summonses was now forgotten, because We were superior to them all. This term we are also going to have a musical put on by Clevelandites, in which we are all interested. Before long We, the Seniors of Crover Cleveland High School, will take our last Regents and go out and again become beginners. Our whole class will split up and go into different fields. We will always remember that our school has prepared us to go out and face the world. lt has also taught us the value behind hard work. Our high school days are now at a close, and before We go, the Senior Class of Ianuary 1953 Wish to express our thanks to Dr. Tonsor, Miss Fink, Mr. McCaffrey, our grade advisers, and the rest of the teachers in the school, who have prepared us for our hard life ahead. To many of us it is hard to believe that our high school career has come to an end. In our minds and hearts the memories of Crover Cleveland will never be forgotten.

As I was betwixt the land of reality and dreams, I was amazed to hear these words floating through my mind. Then a lovely blond, blue-eyed girl carrie tripping along singing them. I called to ask her if she were 'LAlice in VVonderland.H She turned to me with a patient look on her face and said, Oh, no. I'm Alice in Cleveland, but I also have magical powers. Do you sec that mirror over your vanity? VVell, just go over to it and watch closely. VVhy it looks just like a television set with all those knobs on it. VVhat are they for? I'll show you. This knob is for the year 1800. That one is for l900 and the one right next to it is for the year 2000. just by turning a knob and saying the magic phrase I was saying before, I can see what has happened, what is happening, and what will happen. Is there a special year you would like to see? HVVell . . . I would like to see what my friends from school will be ten years from now. L'Look into it closely and you will sec. UVVhy, there is Carman Buscemi in his ofliee surrounded by beautiful secretaries smiling like a Cheshire eat at them. I never thought he would turn out to be the Mayor of New York City. 'fLet's tune in to the Harvest Moon Ball now. Wait till you see the winnersf' Isn't that the dance team of Caputo and Broeco? Aren't they graceful? Now you can see the girl chosen Miss America of 1963. Do you know her? 44 AA 44 Of course I do. It's Wilma Brueger. Ch she's just gorgeous! VVhat would you like to see now? I would like to see Washington, D. C. No sooner said than done. There's the President of the U. S. in her ofliee signing some papers. i'VVhy it's Ioan Thomas, the President of our GO. Gee, the first woman president of the United States. Wliat's all the commotion going on at the door? Reporters are trying to get in to ask her opinion of the good news. HWhat good news? 'fHenry Miebach, our finest diplomat, just talked Stalin into declaring war on Russia. Let's look in on the House of Representatives now. There's a very important discussion scheduled for today. 44 44 30 Look, there's Carmela Tricoma running to the Assembly Hall telling everyone that she's late for an important date, and it is important, she's the one who's to speak today. Now we'll look at some of your friends who have gone to foreign countries. There is Pat Hayes appearing at the Palladium. She's the popular young vocalist who has broken every record ever set there, even Danny Kaye's. Now we'll switch over to the Command Performance and see Iohanna Alcuri and Frank Pfister appearing for the Queen. They were voted the best actor and actress of the year in the States. 4Td like to turn back to America and see how the rest of them are making out. A'All right. Do you see that big crowd of young girls down there? XVell, in the center of that mob is Paul Liguori. He's the latest sensation in the crooning field. Carnegie Hall is having a concert. We'll look at that now. '4The marquee says that Barbara Rohrer is conducting the Boston Symphony and Richard Kovacs is giving a solo. It isn't often that they can get two such talented people on one program. Do they have big parties with famous people in the year 1963 as they did in l953? 'ADO they! lust look and see. There are Ioan Costanza and Edward Becker. They are pooling talents and throwing a gigantic party in honor of Ann Conlon and Cunther Mangels, the outstanding artists of the year. Everyone attending the party is to dress like someone from the Court of the Queen of Hearts. That party will make society columns of every newspaper. What will they do for jokes and jokers in ten years? Will they still have Uncle Milties? '4The best team of comics will be Bates and Marshall. I think their best sketch is the one where they come out dressed like Tweedle-Dee and Tvveedle- Dum. What about sports? Will they still play the same games as l953? Oh yes, but with variations. l'll put on a baseball game and show you. The best players in both leagues are Schrempf and DcBenedictis. Miss Schrempf is the first woman pitcher to play a full game. HWhat odd looking clothes everyone is wearing. Where did they ever get the designs from? '4Ann Deister and Peter Nicolois were the ones who started it. They are the fashion plates of 1963 '4Have you noticed that . . . Qsighj . . . handsome fellow sitting in the place of honor watching the game? UYes. He looks very familiar. Who is he?l' '4That's Iohn AMT. America' LaRocehia. He's the dream man of every modern woman. Could we see . . . Brrring! Ho hum-yawn. Cee, it's time to get up already.

Perhaps his leaving caused the slump the team went into thereafter, winning only a few games. Last term's stars were Dully, Petrello, and Plochocki. This term Mr. Hessel is coach and his co-captains are Ioe Petrello and joe Dully. He is also sure of having Eddie Smith and Steve Phala on the team. SWIMMING Under the able coaching of Mr. McArdle the 1952 Swim Team got off to a good start. Martin Demmel is captain and the co-captains are Bob Zufall and Mitchell Gregory and Chuck O'Shea. Last term the team wasn't too victorious. But this year, we have developed quite a few promising swimmers who, thus far, have shown their talent in meets this season. In the Hrst meets of the season we were victorious over Adams and near victorious over Lane. BASEBALL Last term we had a large turn out for baseball as well as soccer. Mr. Williaiii Denzer, the coach, led the team through a brilliant playing season with a record of eight winnings and two losses. Both of the losses were to Bryant. This loss to Bryant was the reason for our not winning the Queens Cham- pionship. The team will be losing only two men, both pitchers, Iohn Larocehia and Phil Kreischer. SOCCER This term has been one of the terms that brought out more tryouts for soccer than we've had in a good while. VVe have enough players to Hll three teams. The most logical reason for this large turn out is probably because we have so many students from abroad where soccer is the national sport. 50 It looks as though the team, under the expert guidance of Coach Singer, will Win the City Championship. lf they aren't the City Champions, they will at least be Queens Champions. The team will lose such notables as Tom Fox, Captaing Iohn Kalmbach, fullback, Kestutis Simanivicius, half- back, Williaiii Bossems, halfbaclc, Felix Casparro, halfback, and Bob Aylmer. TENNIS Last term one of the teams that was inactive for a good while was revived under the able coaching of Mr. Stone. Because of the fact that the team was still green, it ended up in fourth place in the City Championship at the end of the season. The team, as a result of graduation, will lose Ferdinand Barbatschi and Richard Kovacs. RIFLE The Rifle Team, under the captaincy of Rudolph Brockhagen and coaching of Mr. Wiegarid, unfortunately lost their last match of a brilliant season to a team that had been shooting nowhere nearly as good as Cleveland all season. This untimely loss resulted in our loss of the Championship. One sharpshooter will leave the team at graduation, and he is Charlie Wagen- hauscr. ERNEST Kixrrrrs '53 Q35 Cfuide us, guide us.

Mrs. Schiicck girls 9 atlcfetlcs The crack of the bat against a ball, the ping of a badminton racket connecting with the bird, the excited relaxation you experience when you score in a tight basketball game, or the applause from eager rooters are all part of one of the greatest joys of living . . . sports. Whether you be an outstanding athlete or just someone who likes to watch a good game, you can find much entertainment from participation in different games. During our four years in Grover Cleveland we have found one place to revel in this physical exercise, and that has been the girls' gym, the scene of square dancing, tournament play, or just friendly contest. Other schools may have activities for their female populace, but they cannot compare to the full schedule that has been offered each term by our Health Ed. teachers for their students. There is a debt of gratitude to be paid to these instructors who gave so freely of their time and energy so that we could entertain ourselves in the gym. Miss Rundquist, who has been the Chairman of the Department for many years now, was usually found with the Senior Leaders, discussing the problems that might arise in the classes, or coaching them in the arts of ofhciating and playing. She and her group could also be found in a conference with Mrs. Driscoll and her junior Leaders. The two organizations make up a set of some of the best athletes in the school. Mrs. Sclmeck seemed to love volleyball, so term after term she endured the clamor that came with every lively game and supervised the Volleyball Club. Miss Avelino and Miss Baurle, too, had their hands full with coaching and basketball clubs and, of course, we cannot forget Mrs. Bruckner, who organized every detail to make our Senior Prom a success. As freshmen, many of us came into the school without any playing knowledge of basketball, volleyball, or any other sport. It is truc that we did not all turn out to be outstanding athletes, but now with the end of our Senior term we can all say that we can at least accomplish something in the lines of sports. These four memorable years have passed all too quickly, but we shall always have many pleasant memories to share with each other in the future years. Some day, think of the gym, where you have experienced some of the oddest situations, and you will realize that that period was not a waste of time. We hope we shall always retain the spirit of good sportsmanship which we were taught in Crover Cleveland High. DORIS BOWDEN .53 53 .4-'Q fs ,I I If Y I ,f it .xx he Quai ill aah 'vaiamvni Vlfe, THE GRADUATING CLASS OF IANUARY 1953, believing that after four years of education we are sane in niind and body, and mindful of our obligation to those who remain behind in the acadernic world, do hereby will and bequeath the following disposition of our properties both tangible and intangible.

To Miss Toschack: the hope that she will soon parlera francais as well as a native Frenchman. To Mr. Weissbtreliz a collection of every poem ever written for him to memorize. To Mr. Aronson: a share of stock in Klein's Bargain Basement. To lVlr. Kitt: a class of fresh air lovers. To Mr. Stone: a pea shooter for students who fall asleep during his lectures. To Mrs. Bruckner: our sincere appreciation for working so hard to make our prom the great success it was. To Miss Brown: a magic baton to keep the orchestra in tune at all times. To Mr. Taub: the installation of electric eyes at all exits. To Mr. Davis: an automatic page turner for his organ. To Mr. NcNulty: a coeoanut full of Florida sunshine. To the Student Court: a verdict of Not Guilty. To the Service Squad: a closet full of sumnronses which read 'fFor Freshmen Onlyf' To all new little Freshmen: Somewhere along the way you will grow up. To the Sophomores: two years of scribbling on blackboards and carrying enormous books. To the Iuniors: five months to revel in their high position as Seniors.
