'Tis a day that we will long remember. For on that eventful morning we were officially enrolled as members of the Class of 12. uve entered the portals of spacious Norwalk High School. ive felt a combined sense of fear and amazement, which persisted as the upperclassmen directed their sloppy sophu humor at us. But after a period of adjustment we discovered that Room 328 was non-existent and that seventh period Hrst was the usual procedure on Tuesday mornings. As a whole the sophomore year was uneventful, however the following situations did occur: CID The band received new formal dress uniforms, QQ The Green lvave succeeded in getting out of the red , An Aeronautical Club was organized with Mr. Lobdell as faculty advisor, and Qlj the Class of 191-2 placed at least one member on each of the athletic rosters. School ended on June 21, 1940 with our regrets, and thus our first year in Norwalk High School was over. Upon returning to school, we, as learned juniors, took a more prominent part in school functions. Our representative in the Student Council help to select a standard school ring. which was probably the most important decision of the year. The llusic Department added greater laurels to its outstanding record of achieve- ments by the Band rating first in the state-wide music competition. Then eleven of our classmates went on to greater heights by earning admission to the National Honor Society. This group included Fred Horvath, President, llartha Berndt, Vice-President, Mary Gallagher, Secretary, Miriam Steinberg, lfarie Giordano, Jean Podzelni, Carolyn Coleburn, Mildred Savastano, Harold Bierman, Faith Gregory, and Sigmund VVahrsager. Finally, members of the Class of '42 assumed executive leadership of the Student Council. Those elected were: Bob Rooney, President, Ralph Perschino, Vice-President, Dorothy Holmgren, Secretary, and Harold Bierman, Treasurer. Thereupon we again went into hibernation for ten weeks. As seniors, we came into our own, we had Enally attained our high school ambition. Many reforms marked our school year. First, The Green TVaz'e and The Echo were combined to form the Hi-Times, with Seniors Carolyn Coleburn and Martha Berndt as co-editors. Next a revolutionary movement for more student government came into the foreground, accompanied by a four-period debate. At last our class organization took place with Ernest Nevidjohn elected Presi- dent, Ralph Perschino, Vice-Presidentg Joan Ireland. Secretary. and Martha Berndt. Treasurer. Our year book then began to take form with Faith Gregory chosen Editor-in-Chief. Then a second National Honor Society election admitted an additional group of twenty-three seniors into the organization. This honored number of students was composed of the following: Mary Barata, Albert Clark. Eleanor Correnty, Norma Fleming. Betty Greenberg, Dorothy Halloran. Ruth Hansen, Mary Hyatt. Marion Johnson. Louis Lawrence. lYilliam McGrath. Ida Mokisel. Kathleen Nolan, Jean Parsons. Ralph Perschino. John Petropoulos. Dorothy Powell. Donald Radley. Harriet Rosenthal. Herbert Simon, Howard Sloman. Margaret Tompkins, and Shirley Zahn. Our senior year drew to a close with members of the class busily engaged in the usual graduation activities-Class Play, Prom, and graduation preparation. And now as we prepare to leave Norwalk High School and set forth to find our place in the sun it is only fitting and proper to extend a sincere vote of appreciation to the faculty, who amidst our trials and tribulations saw us through.

REIVI I N ISCENTIAE 1942 PROPHECY Scene: Luncheon at a fashionable hotel in VVashington, D. C. Time: Summer, 1957. Several of our country's foremost officials are present and are conversing. Among them are VVilliam Adams, Consul-General on leave from Cairo: Joe Kilbourn, Senator from Connecticutg General Ben Preece, and many others. Bill: Yes, it was December 7, 1941, and I was a senior at Norwalk High School. Vlrhat a shock it was when those .laps bombed Pearl Harbor! I remember it as if it were yesterday. I was visiting at Lewis Lane's house when the report came over the radio. He happened to be cleaning his guns at the time. Ben: Say, by the way, what is Lewis doing now? Bill: Yvhy he's a broker on 1Vall Street and Ed Dorsey is his lawyer. Say, thereis Clarence VVenzel. Remember him? Heis head of that new concern in Nor- walk that manufactures television sets as cheaply as portable radios. Vlvell. Clarence, how are things down at the plant? Clarence: Fine. Production has stepped up a bit so that we just had to take on two new secretaries who graduated with our class, .lane Schreyer and Marie Collins. By the way, John Kavanewsky is head draftsman at-the plant. Joe: Speaking of secretaries, I have both Pearl Kovacs and Louise LeCain in my office. I hear that Bill Holmes and Ed Raila are constructing that new bridge that there's been so much talk about down in Mexico-my, Bill, you seem to be drowned in thought. 1Vhy the silence? Bill: I've been thinking of all the water that has passed under the bridge since the war. You know. a number of former students gladly gave their contributions for the cause of democracy. For instance. Fred Horvath. After Fred left high school, he joined the Air Force where he succeeded in becoming a Top Flight Commander. He left the army after the war and became president of the Toledo Airlines. The vice-president of this successful company is Franklin DeBoer. Paul Murphy and Robert Brown are pilots on his airline. Harry Dutka and James Ball have joined up with the Pan-American Airlines with Florence Trombitas as stewardess on the plane. Clarence: A number of students were in the army and navy during the war and liked it so well they decided to make a career of it. Tom Incerto worked his way up from a buck private to a captain. Under him as lieutenants are Leon Albert, Victor D'Vanzo, George Bennett. and John Rogers. Bill: The army isn't the only fortunate branch of the service. The navy has fl well-known lieutenant-commander by the name of Don Radley. Bill Hubbell distinguished himself in commanding a destroyer during the war. John Irving. Bob Minnich, liugc-ne Vrcdcnburgh. and Louis Lctizia are also in the navy. Ben: Yes, Richard VVl1ite, .lohn Fabrizio, and .lcsse Flnglamler are in the air force. Good old Norwalk has given the country some fine citizens. They arc interrupted by a well-dressed mane- btraugcr: I beg your pardon. but didn't I hear someone mention Norwalk? Bill: Yvcll. if it isn't lid Alberta! Joe: Ilcllo there. lid. lvc were just talking about some of our former class- nmtcs and what the-y'rc doing now. Bill. Speaking of doing things. lid. you certainly have helped ns in developing synthetic rubber so it can be used profitably. How did you ever work it out? lid: It w:isn't through my clforts alone, but through the unending toil of my faith- ful chemists, Jean Conn and Saul Ciorin, that gave us the finest synthetic product since nylon. Joe: The synthetic rubber was a great hclp until South America perfected her rubber plantations. Didn't that give your product a lot of competition, Ed? Bd. No, it didn't. Joe. You see we used our rubber for the smaller. more personal things like rubber bands and golf balls, while South American rubber was used for the larger industrial needs, such as tires. Bill: Our relations with South America couldn't be friendlier. VVith such able diplomats as Bob YVinstanley. minister to Argentina: Duane Stewart, minister to Brazil. and YVilliam McGrath. representing us at a conference of the Central American Republic. At this moment. Pat O'Brien. Congresswoman from Connecticut, approached the I-I d : Pat: Clai- Joe: Bill: IZ d : Bill: Clar gl'Ollp' Hello. Pat. I hear that Shirley Zahn and Margaret Rowe are secretaries in your ofhce. Say. Bill, I can still see our Iinglish class. Remember those cut-ups, Vlialter Stelkoyis. Jolm Burke, and Joseph Varanai? VVell, VValt is a salesman for a big New York concern: John is a teacher of Physical Education at Center Junior High: Joe is top sergeant in the Home Guard. ence: A number of our classmates have become teachers. Yes. I was visiting the High School a few months ago. and Dorothy Halloran is a geometry teacher: Jacqueline Friedman. a history teacherg Miriam Rosen- thal is in the commercial department: Esther Anderson is the girls' Physical Iiducation teacher, while James Crcagh is the boys' instructor. There are many in other schools too. For instance, Arthur Booth and iNIary Barata teach in Junior High School, while Mary Hyatt is head teacher in her private school. with Jane Mc-Mahon, Mildred Savatano, and Jean Podzelni on her teaching staff. In the cultural Held, Rudy Palladino is giving a piano concert in Carnegie Hall next Friday night and Josephine Uccellini is an accomplished ballet dancer. Say. would you boys carc to spend an evening at the Blanc Rouge Club with me soon? It is owned by Joe Lawrence and John Cahill. Joe Nyiri is the band leader, with several Norwalk boys in the band-Herbert Herring, Henry Middleton, and Frank DiScala. June Harris is the vocalist. Peggy, Harry, and Iiarl YVebb are featured dancers. The paintings in the lounge are by Barbara Jennings, Catherine Tobin, Iiverett Brown, Rhoda lNIaginsky, and Barbara Cross. ence: I'll wager you fellows didn't know that Bill Sherwood is a famous explorer and that Albert Meckcl and Victor Aprea are his assistants. He took Joe: Bob Ben Bob Ben Bob Ben Bill Joe: Ben Bill Joe: Ben Bob Ed: Joe: Bill Ben Joe: Ed: Joe: Jack Slattery along as his doctor, with Jean Vllright, Dorothy Broadhurst, and Evelyn Hevesy as nurses. Say, that fellow over there looks familiar. VVhy it's Robert Kircher. Hello there, Bob! : Hello. I heard you folks were around here, and I've been looking every- where for you. : I hear youire a famous surgeon in the Mayo Clinic, Bob. : Oh, there are several Norwalkers there too. George Lawson and Marietta Allen are doctors. Gertrude Yackal, Carolyn Riccardi, and Marjorie Wil- liams are nurses, and Elaine VVetmore is a laboratory technician. Eleanor Correnty, Mira VVarga, and Betty Amundsen are on the office staff. : I hear that Leonard Nemeth is a dentist with Marguerite Quinlivan as his dental hygienist. Norman Meyers is also in the professional field. He's a lawyer, you know. Dorothy Nickerson and Frances Verrnes are his secretaries. : Ida Maestri is a famous actress on Broadway, starring in a play written by John Gribosky. Kitty Lou Ensell is a radio producer, and John Guerard is a radio engineer with the same company. Julia Norwood is a well-known vocalist on that network. : Do you remember Barbara Hayes? She is now a social service worker here. : By the way, what is Bob Rooney doing these days? Oh, he is a horticulturist and has a business of his own in Norwalk. Pearl Norback and Janice Kelley are his assistants. : We have a few engineers, too, in our class. Henry Sullow and Ralph De Panfilis are engineers engaged in building bridges. Richard Ryan is one also in a large plant. And I hear Louis Caruso is an aeronautical engineer. Saul Bornstein and John Petropoulos are chemical engineers and Ray Chuzas is doing very well for himself in a plant in Pittsburg. : What about some of the others who graduated with us? : Marion Johnson is quite a swimmer and is ready for the Olympic meet coming up this year. Fred Buckholz recently came in second in the P. G. A. Tournament and Bar- bara Chapman entered one of her horses in the Empire City Handicap. Doris DeMott his written a new novel that has been getting a great deal of publicity. And Howard Boardman is working for the New York Railroad Company. : Is that so? Harry Bracken is a telephone lineman and Jennie Manzi is a secretary in the ofhce of the New England Telephone Company. I suppose some of our people are in business for themselves and have their stores and shops in Norwalk. Oh, definitely. When I was there. I saw signs outside of two beauty parlors which bore the names of two of our former classmates. They were Marion Chehy and Ida Cocchia. Ben Bill Joe: Clax- I hear that Frank Pasquale and Robert Suehy are clerks in the post oflice. Martha Ann Berndt is an accomplished artist, I understand. Yes. her beautiful paintings are known all over the country. Jean Parsons, Norma Fleming, Jean YValsh, and Doris Schwader are on her modeling staff. ence: In connection with that, Rosemary Pool, Al Herman, and Ted Tomey are among the well-known commercial artists employed by the H. Simon Sign Company. which is managed by Marilyn Spence. Bill. I hear that they have been doing a lot of advertising for Super Sports Goods Co., which is owned by Jolm O'Mara. Ben: Oh, that reminds me, the Senators are playing the Red Sox tomorrow, at GriHith Stadium. How would you gentlemen like to see the game as my guests? I'm sure you would enjoy it as a few of our former classmates are members of these teams. Ed Paylik is the star pitcher for the Senators and Sam Li Vecchi is the Red Soxls ace shortstop. Ed: Oh. that will be swell. By the way, Ben, who gave you the passes? Bill: He probably got them from Sig Walirsager, who is manager of the Red Sox. Ed: I was out at the ball park the other day and ran into Dick Weinstein and John Tierney, who are sports writers on the Washington Herald. Joe: Speaking of newspapers. aren't Bob Bauer and Francis Hoppel co-editors of the good old Norwalk Hour? Ben: Yes. and Ruth Thompson, Rita Stahl, and Mary Stefani are secretaries in the 'iHour office. Ed: Many girls became nurses: many of them right in the Norwalk Hospital.

Last year the group traveled to New London to compete in the State Mu- sical Festival against practically all the high school hands of Connecticut. and received a superior rating. This year the group started with comparatively few veteran members of last year's band. However. thc newcomers studied during the summer in summer school so by the time the football season had arrived thc baud was large and efticient. The hand is expecting to travcl to Stamford and lVestport to put on assembly programs. These schools will in turn send groups to put on programs here. This organization also gave a joint concert with thc .lunior High Schools early in the Spring. A viii ,ff A N f, 'v ' : 'NH X ll A95 .--- i .psf - - ?

THE A CAPELLA CHOIR Our choir during the sophomore year started a new policy of allowing people who were not in the fourth period to sing in the choir. This gave opportunity to many who had too heavy a schedule and could not be in the choir before. With this new blood, the choir gave a program of music at Christmas, 1939, and invited the public. An overflow crowd attended and were awed by the spectacle of the choir singing by candlelight. This grand beginning was followed by two more Christmas programs in the next two years and many were turned away as the yearly program grew on all. During our junior year the choir represented our school in the state contest, and although it did not win, our school may well be proud of its efforts. At the end of our sophomore year Jimmy Vick graduated and left our choir and went on to higher singing success. Who knows who of our class will go on to great success in the musical world? inn , aa! ll l W9-f Ill l M.. ll as an 46 FIRST Row fle-ft to rightj-Lorna Henry, Helen Yates, Jacqueline Hoban, Marilyn Nutting, Ida Maestri, Alice Lutz.

THE ROYAL FAMILYH The graduating class of 1911-2 presented their play on Thursday and Friday evenings, April sixteenth and seventeenth, before capacity audiences in the Norwalk High School auditorium. The play, The Royal Family , a three-act comedy, hy George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber, was chosen by Mrs. Innes D. lNIacCammond, director, and her com- mittee for its sparkling good humor, its appealing characters and its unfailing versatility. The Royal Family concerns the private life of the first family of the American theatre, the Cavendish family, which is comprised of three generations. First, there is Fanny Cavendish, who, at seventy, is planning her tour for the coming season, and who rules the Cavendish family with courage and a sharp tongue. Then there is Herbert Dean, a pompous actor now in his decline, who is the brother of Fanny Cavendish. Kitty Dean is his nagging wife. Julie, the oldest daughter of Fanny Cavendish, is at the crest of her career as a Broadway star hut is unhappy in the midst of her extraordinary family. Tony, the only son of Fanny Cavendish, having forsaken the stage for Hollywood, rushes home, only to dash to South America in order to escape a dancer who' has heen pursuing him. Gwen, the eighteen-year-old daughter of Julie t'avendish, jolts the family by marrying Perry Stewart, a non-professional, and forsalting thc stage-temporarily. The actual portrayal of a family whose cntire life is devoted to the theater was realistic-ally enacted hy the entire east.. The unsellish devotion of Fanny Cavendish to her family gave human interest. to the story while the amazing vitality of Tony and Julie Cavendish lu-pt. the play moving at a fast tempo. However, the huge success of the play was due to the superli acting of the entirc cast.. kJA.v- l ,,,-f L,,,.,.. ,, !',,.-17 Q l Business Manager . Vice Principal, Ferroi B. Green oi june, 1942.

BASKETBALL The Norwalk High basketball team went through one of the most disastrous seasons of any high school team when they failed to win a single contest out of twelve games. VVeakened by ineligibilities and injuries, the Green and lvhite quintet was unable to click at the proper time and thereby failed to chalk up a win. How- ever, one bright outlook looms ahead for Coach Ike Kern as only seven of the twenty members of the squad were seniors and he will therefore have many piom- ising prospects for the next campaign. Although defeated in every contest, the Green and lVhite quintet gave the fans and school a team to be proud of. In every contest they were in there fighting and showed the sportsmanship which Norwalk High is noted for and should he proud of. Among the players who closed their haskcthall careers at Norwalk High are: Captain Joe Lawrence, Don lvagner. Hal Hyatt, Fred Rooney. Harry llutka. Charles O'Brien and Norman Meyers, and also both eo-managers, lVilliau1 Marriott and lid Alberta.

By virtue of their seven wins and two ties, the local warriors laid undisputed claim to the state championship. For the first time in the history of the school, the locals were able to defeat the Peekskill Military Academy of New York. The Andrewsmen achieved this feat twice. The local lads also chalked up two wins each over Fairfield and West Haven and one victory from the New Haven Hillhouse. The only blots on the champs' record were the two ties played with our arch rival, Stamford. These were two hard-fought contests which ended in 1-1 and 2-2 scores. Coach Andrews and the team felt that the season's success was not due to individual play but to the wholehearted way in which each player did his part. Although many of this year's outstanding performers will be graduated, the out- look for next year is bright as Coach Andrews will have many veterans returning to the fold. Among the members of this year's team who will be graduated are: Captain George Bennett, Hal Hyatt, Angelo Anrico, Donald Bonis, Bob Winstanlev, Norman Meyers, Don Radley, John Werme, Bob Kircher, .lack Slattery, Howard Sloman, Manager Charles O'Brien and Assistant Sig VVahrsager.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM The girls' basketball team closed its season in a blaze of glory on March 4. by defeating the Fairiield High girls in a hard. well-fought battle. Their season was a very successful one. and the team deserves a lot of credit. having won four of the six games scheduled. The first game of the season, with Cherry Lawn. set a pace for the team which they maintained in all but two of their games. In their second game they suffered a setback from the Low-Heywood girls. In the following game with Staples. however. they recovered their pace almost fully. They remained the same when they divided a double header with Ifairtield. In this game the Seniors had an early lead and kept it until the closing minutes when they were nosed out by a very slim margin in spite of all their etforts. The next game. with Danbury. resulted in the Seniors playing a deadlock game and the .layvees being victorious. In contrast to their previous game with the Fairfield girls, the return game told a different storyg this was one of the best games that the Seniors played and they succeeded in defeating their opponents, while the .layvees played to a deadlock. Gloria Corey and Dot Bartley led the scoring with 35 and -L1 points respectively. The scores are as follows: SENIOR TEAM Norwalk ,,.,,, Norwalk ...,.....

The various teams were selected from each gym class. This method proved more successful than the one of making up teams from the home room. Altogether about 150 girls participated in these games. After the teams chose their captains they were placed in leagues, and played either during home desk period or after school. Ini the Wednesday league there are the Rookies, Loopsling- ers, Dodgers, Speedsters, Dukes, Bombers, Straight Shooters. These teams are composed mostly of juniors and seniors. The Panthers, Spit Fires, Destroying Angels, Anchors, Lone Stars and Bloomer Girls are the sophomore teams. To get an idea of how the different teams are making out, here are some scores of some of the leading teams: Dodgers 20 vs. Speedsters 4f Bombers 18 vs. Dukes 4 Loopslingers 10 vs. Rookies 0 .fil . ,Y U - 's'! 1 r 4.

Under the fine guidance of Coaches John Ryan and Leo Skidd. the Norwalk High team was able to triumph over the Scarborough Prep team. Kings School and Hackley High of Tarrytown, N. Y., while dropping close encounters to New Haven Hillhouse. Greenwich and Darien. The fine offensive play of Captain lirnic Nevidjohn and Lou Esposito. the leading scorers, and the spectacular goal tending of Jack Slattery was especially outstanding for the local sextet. Eight of the members of this year's team will be graduated in June. among these lads being: Jack Slattery. lirnie Nevidjohn. Bill Holmes. Bob lVinstanley. John Yvermc, Frank Delioer. Dave Gibb. and Donald Bonis. Other players who will remain in school are: I.ou lisposito. Sheldon Rubin, Otto Hain. Ed Hartmayer. Jim My-Guiness, Harold ll'ithncll. Dick Sr-ire, Doug Morrison. and Marshall Saunders. We, of the graduating class, take this opportunity to thank Coaches Ryan and Skidd for their time. patience and continual effort. lve believe that they have done a fine job in putting such a good team on the ice and we hope that they will put out many more winning combines.

I am making my thoughts practical and clear. In these tempestuous times, we cannot afford to fool ourselves. We must be realistic in planning, and we must be emphatically prompt in action. We must do better work and more work than we have thought possible. We must leave off day-dreaming and concern ourselves with the present and immediate future, showing fortitude and steady application. Many of you are asking, What can I do to help? There is one answer that has brought opportunity to over 700 Merrill-trained boys and girls since july 1941. That answer is, S-E-R-V-E! These people have been trained in minimum time to give maximum service. Some are working under Civil Service in Washington, some are working in Defense Industries, some are working for private individuals, some are in the Armed Forces. They are secretaries, accountants, Medical assistants, and by the time this is printed, there will be draftsmen,-all trained at Merrill. They are working and earning and contributing toward Winning Tbif Uyarf Merrill is on an all-out program. We are ready to train YOU for maximum efficiency in minimum time. School will be open all summer, with morning, afternoon and evening programs. YOU CAN SERVE! YOUR NATION NEEDS YOUR HELP AS AN INDEPENDENT WORKER! There will be years ahead, God willing, when you will have an opportunity to do many things, to try many types of work-when this war has become history and life assumes a calmer mold. BUT NOW ACTION IS NECESSARY! LET US PREPARE YOU TO DO YOUR PART TOWARD VICTORY! Sincerely yours, Virginia Drew, Pmzriltmil Compliments of M. H.
