19 3 9 Published by the Senior Class of r i ■N 1 1 ' k A 1 l n J J t IN {ft jr HAMMOND, INDIANA In this book readers will find many replicas of bulletin boards, those ever present informers of our days in school. They arc here for a reason. We believe that no other object so ably typifies the spirit of a school. Bulletin boards act the same part as facial expressions. They can appear glad or depressed; expectant or foreboding. Like the pulse beats in a human blood system, they indicate the faculty and student reaction to triumphs, changes, and defeats that occur in school life. We feel that nothing can more easily portray the many happenings of an eventful year than bulletin boards. Fervently hoping that the classes that follow will enjoy and improve them — Here they cornel i r n p J L LI u Changing as our bulletin boards are, they ever reflect the varied spirit of student activities, and items of interest which appear on them. There one sees an ever growing list of names wherein we find inspiration. Here have stood others to whom victory has been given — over opponents, over tasks, over self. To the loyal Alumni, whose achievements, appearing in those bulletins in former years, have indicated their devotion to the school, and whose steadfastness continues to support everything we undertake, we dedicate this, the fifth Marquette.

LATE BULLETIN CLASS HISTORY SENIORS, 1939 NOTICE The senior class of ’3 9 has now passed on to the land of the Alumni. Our many activities have, we hope, been well accomplished. Of these, the most important were: Freshman Year . . . Childhood New, timid faces appeared on Central’s grounds, destined for great things. Election of class-officers took place with results as followls: President, Clarence Klosky; Vice-president, Betty Clusserath; Secretary, James McShane; Treasurer, Robert Kolb. October brought our Get-Acquainted party” to the fore. And in December we proved our dramatic ability with the Freshman Christ- mas play — a Central tradition. Finally, June rolled around and found us proud sophomores. Sophomore Year . . . “Crowing Pains” Again election of officers took place and Guy Coriden became President; Stell Regan, Vice- president; Perry Thompson, Secretary; and Dorothy Schilling, Treasurer. A number of sophs enacted parts in the play, Valley of the Ghosts.” Most of us were active in the Vocational Guilds and the Choral Club. Both boys and girls proved their ability in sports. Junior Year . . . Adolescence We advanced to the proud rank of putting out that very important item of Central’s school life, the school paper, the Hi-Lite.” Class officers were: Mary F. Reynolds, Thomas Holman, Margaret Ramsay, Hallie Mudro, Edward Kinel, and Noel Cuff. In December the Junior girls organized a club called the Tri-F’s” and in February gave their big dance, the Mardi Gras.” June brought the glorious task of giving our seniors their prom and we were quite proud of the affair. Senior Year . . . Full Crown Our busiest!! The officers for our last and most eventful year: Presidents, James Eder and Perry Thompson; Vice-presidents, Marie Dobosz and Margaret Mager; Secretaries, Margaret Ramsay and Hallie Mudro; Treasurers, Walter Wadas and Noel Cuff.

Numerous seniors took part in Growing Pains,” a play given in November. When it came to raising money for our annual, the Marquette Hop” was given. In March we made our last devout retreat at Central. During the months of April and May we made various expeditions to different colleges, and when June came it found us busily engaged in exams, senior picnic, breakfast, banquet, prom, and Alleluia, Graduation; on our own!

Those chosen for presidents this year were: Jerome Kosinski in Junior A,” Martha Brahos in Junior B” and Ruth DeBold in Junior C.” Certain members of the class showed their dramatic ability in presenting two mission programs and taking part in the offerings of the Dramatic Guild, Growing Pains” and The Mysteries of The Mass.” The school paper, The Central Hi-Lite,” won new laurels under the leadership of Mary Thomson. In the Mission Crusade, Eleanore Koch was elected secretary, and Leonard Kielman treasurer. The Camera Club, the Band, and the Choral Club all had representatives from the junior class. — Paul Shwcppt Page Nineteen SOPHOMORES (LM Aft 4 fli r ir. a : n First rou,’, across: H. Arvcscn, F.

Included in the cast of the comedy, Growing Pains,” were Lucille Peters, Jim Beckham and Harold Arvesen, with Caroline Simala taking care of properties. All the sophomores enjoyed the Valentine party, which was held on February 14. On February 21, ’round and ’round they all went — at the sophomore roller skating party. Our girls’ basketball team received the title of champs” in the annual class tournament, the decisive game being played on March 24. Page Twenty D. Broviak, H. Carlson, C. Carroll, J. Clunc, C.

Pjj T wenty-one FRESHMEN FRESHMAN CLASS On the sixth of September 125 boys and girls gathered together in Catholic Central gym for the first time as a class, and were soon divided into four groups. About the middle of October the various classes chose their officers. They included: Freshmen A”: Dorothy Jackson, Leo Engleton, Anna Mae Zellers, Robert Hammond; B”: Mary Catherine Polito, Thomas Quinn, Louis Bogusz, Rita Huss; C”: Emil Vuich, Bernard Wirtz, Rose Mary Galinac, Diana Kohl; D”: Hartnette O’Keefe, Leo Radigan, Mary Louise Manion, Madeline Ratajczak. On the Monday preceding Christmas the freshmen showed their social talent by putting on an enjoyable party. On the twentieth of December, Fiat Lux,” the choice for the annual Christmas freshman play, was produced. Several members of the class have also served in the Dramatic Guild. In athletics, the Freshmen have shown some promising talent for the future teams of Catholic Central. They have also upheld the scholastic standard of the school with many of ' their names appearing on the honor role during the course of the year. — Bernard Wirtz Page Twenty-two r iii q, n jgjif] l M l u r s a ft gi LA . t fe A Si M a .1 J 9 - A - trtiriatefcinfc lihi _ 9 G r q o anq 9 i r r srt o A g jl£. - t ■ — 6 J.

ALUMNI Sep tember came, and with it renewal of activities. We planned Homecoming, the Winter formal, roller-skating party, the splash party, Communion breakfast and the Alumni-Senior Banquet. Late in October, when everything was in full swing, we gave our Homecoming. With the largest crowd in the history of the school attending, it went over with a flare. (Remember the bonfire?) Our annual formal was next, held on December 28 . Everyone had a grand time, dancing to Ossie Thrane’s music. Then the roller-skating party. Again the committee scored” with a large crowd participating. The swimming party was fun, too. In May we had our Com- munion breakfast which was attended by Alumni, old and new. Mass was said by Father Conway in the chapel and the breakfast was held in the cafeteria. The last will be the Alumni-Senior Banquet. We are planning to make it bigger and better to welcome you, Seniors. Page Twenty-six ft % MOTHERS’ CLUB Firsf row : Mrs. W. J. Phelan, Mrs. I. Fasan, Mrs. J. Schwcistol, Mrs. P. Deasy.

MOTHERS ' CLUB During the past year, the Catholic Central Mothers Club has contributed greatly to both the social and financial welfare of the school. Under the leadership of energetic officers, the club has sponsored many affairs, including a card party and turkey raffle on November 18, a penny supper in December, the library tea on February 19, and a lawn party on May 18. The annual library tea was well attended, as the pictures below attest, and garnered needed funds for the school library. The Mothers’ Club was also in charge of serving refreshments after the plays, and their variety booth was one of the most popular at the Spring Festival. The last activity sponsored by the club during the school term is the senior breakfast served after the Baccalaureate Mass. Page Twenty-seven MENS CLUB Page Twenty-eight Mr. A. Hodor Mr. J.

The officers of the club are James Regan, president; Stanley Wleklinski, vice-president; Albert Hodor, secretary; John Hoess, treasurer. The Athletic Banquet, sponsored by the Men’s Club, and held on January twenty-sixth, was a huge success. The crowd of five hundred people, who attended, heard the inspiring words of Elmer Layden, of Notre Dame, on Loyalty.” Joe Benda, line coach at the college, accompanied Mr. Layden. Mr. Timothy P. Galvin acted as toastmaster. The Men’s Club also helped with the Homecoming and Spring Festival, sponsored by the Alumni, and the school; and, together with the Mothers’ Club, organized parents of Catholic Central students.

CHORAL BAND CHORAL CLUB A blending of voices, now rising, now falling, makes us feel that we arc somewhere on the edge of heaven, a group of angels floating around in celestial sound. Then the voices stop and we find we are in good old Central, which I don’t believe has been called heaven, nice as it is. And we, alas, find ourselves not angels by quite a margin. Was it all a dream? But no, we discover that there were beautiful voices, those belonging to our Choral Club under the excellent guidance of Rev. Father Junk and Sister M. Sophia. BAND Central’s band under the direct on of Mr. Victor Sarvello has proved itself one of the most active institutions of the school. The group appeared at several programs amid the tumultous applause of the spectators. The band also provided color on the football field at various times. And they brought back second place prize in the Arch-diocesan Catholic Band and Orchestra Contest. A big space on the bulletin board for our band. Front row: W. Herrman, V. Barclli, J. Vichuras, J.

SACRED HEART VOCATIONAL GUILD Central’s Sacred Heart Vocational Guild, an organization of long and honorable standing can look back again at a year of meritorious service. The purpose of the guild is to disseminate infor- mation among the members who are as yet un- certain about the course of their life work. Meetings were held usually during the week of the First Friday and at them the relative merits of the various fields of work were read and discussed. Valuable assistance was given by Rev. H. James Conway who is faculty sponsor. Club officers are Walter Wadas, Joseph Winkler, Joseph Hap, and Leo Wirtz. OUR LADY OF GOOD COUNSEL GUILD Our Lady of Good Counsel Vocational Guild increased in number and extended its activities during the past year. The Guild contributed their monthly dues toward flowers and linens for the convent altar and for baskets of groceries at Christmas. Through the guidance of Sister Rose Gertrude the club discussed many different voca- tions including Nursing, Teaching and Religious Life. Qualifications in character for these vocations were also discussed. Officers elected were: Dorothy Schilling President Dorothy Hodor Vice-president Jeanette Moser — Secretary-treasurer C. S. M. C. The Catholic Students’ Mission Crusade carried on with its helpful activities this year. Under the leader- ship of Gerald Backe, the crusade centered its attention on collecting stamps and contributions for the mis- sions abroad and at home. Members of the different classes presented pro- grams on each First Friday. Other officers are: Evelyn Babinscak, Eleanor Koch and Leonard Kcilman, with Louis Sancya acting as program chair- man.

A monthly paper, the Hi-Lite” obtained subscriptions from nearly all the students. In March, a novelty under the name of an extra” appeared and caused much excitement on the campus. For the first four issues, an alternating reporter staff func- tioned and in February, a permanent staff consisting of the best workers were appointed. Mary Thomson and Joe Radigan served as co-editors, Eleanor Heibel and Ray Wojcinski as news editors, Eleanor Koch and Paul Schweppe as feature editors, Evelyn Kordick and Joe Kasper handled the sports situation, and Margaret Herod and Joe Mysliewics provided Alumine news. Eleanor Heibel, Howard Stephens and Ruth DeBold contributed cartoons and Dorcas Fasan and Joe Ciereszewski managed the publicity. Bob Ginther proved to be a fine business manager. Page T birty-one CAMERA CLUB CLUBS The Camera Club, under the sponsorship of Sister M. Consolata, has proved an outlet for the initiative and energy of both the Central camera fans, and the scientific students who wish to learn the mechanics of photography. The club is divided into advanced and novice classes, with monthly contests for snapshots in both of them. Its officers are: Genese Hayes, president; John Kelly, vice-president; Dorcas Fasan, secretary- treasurer. Front rou : B. Clusscrath, P. O’Connor, G. Hayes, D. Fasan, D. Hodor, L. Gozdecki, R.

Les seances, which were held every second week, were devoted to the presentation of French songs, literature, and customs. French versions of American games were popular. Several members corres- ponded with students of France and the reading of these letters at the club sessions proved to be very interesting. The officers are Walter Wadas, Dorothy Schilling and Stella Regan. Miss Virginia O’Hern is faculty sponsor. Vagi’ Thirly-lwo FOOTBALL Front row. J. Ginther, W. Magurany, Magurany, J. Winkler, C.

With wins over the Catholic high schools in South Bend, Michigan City and Fort Wayne, the football team gained the championship of the Northern Indiana Catholic High Schools. Every man on the team starred in this herculean achievement, the most successful season in several years. To Rev. A. J. Junk, director of Athletics, and Mr. Joseph Gleason, coach, together with the steadfastness and perservance of the team and the loyalty of the student body, goes credit for the victory. Page T birty-fou r FOOTBALL ST. GEORGE 7-7 With twelve varsity lettermen returning, six of these being regulars, Coach Joe Gleason en- deavored to upset the highly publicized team from St. George. The defense was almost flawless, but the Evanston team managed to tic Central in the closing minutes of the game. TOLLESTON 0-0 After two weeks during which much practice brought about an improvement in precision, Cen- tral played a night game with Tolleston of Gary. Both teams displayed a good offense, Central on several occasions had scoring opportunities, having accumulated four hundred yards from scrimmage, but the players lacked the scoring punch. Fumbles proved costly for both teams. GRIFFITH 32-0 In the dedication of Griffith’s field, Central after a standstill first half, came back in the second half to score five touchdowns. Coach Gleason, with tactics typical of his former coach — Elmer Layden, used the entire squad in the last half. RENSSELAER 6-14 Playing its third successive game away from home. Central lost its only game of the season to Rensselaer. In the early minutes of the game a long run gave the Centralites a scoring oppor- tunity, but it did not materialize. The encounter, which was played in summer temperature handi- capped both teams. CENTRAL CATHOLIC 33-0 An aggregation from Central Catholic of South Bend was drubbed by an avenging Central team. At no time during the contest was the invading team close to the Central goal. ST. MARY ' S 13-0 Before a homecoming crowd of three thousand, Central met a fighting team from St. Mary’s of Michigan City. Both teams possessed aggressive lines that kept the play for the most part in mid-field. Central twice put on rallies that resulted in the touchdowns. CENTRAL CATHOLIC 21-6 In probably the best game Central played all season, a formidable team from Central Catholic of Fort Wayne was turned back. Hammond turned in a commendable game in every way. Steady playing and superior defense featured the contest. CATHOLIC HIGH 12-0 In the last home game of the season, the War- riors of Central defeated a good team from South Bend. This victory gave Central the Northern Indiana Catholic High School Championship. Central’s touchdowns were in the second and third periods on spirited marches. ST. FRANCIS deSALES 32-0 As a final encounter of the successful season, Central travelled to Chicago to meet St. Francis de Sales. The Centralites played a superior game and were never in danger. Page Thirty -file FOOTBALL MR. JOSEPH GLEASON, COACH Central was fortunate in obtaining Mr. Joseph Gleason, six letter man from Notre Dame as its coach. In this, his first year here, he led the foot- ball team to new laurels as it won the Northern Indiana Catholic High School Championship. Also coach of basketball, baseball and track, he is assisted in the latter sports by Father Francis Kienly and Mr. Patrick McShane.

Page Thirty-seven BASKETBALL Although our basketball team started out in poor fashion it ended the season a pretty fair ball club. Coach Gleason started the year with only two of last year’s varsity men back. He worked hard with the team trying one combination after another, and the members gradually lost their greenness. With only three men graduating, and plenty of speed, height, and scoring power back for next years team, the outlook is bright. WEBER . , T. FRACTIONAL HOBART LOYOLA ST. LEO ALUMNI ST.

The varsity, consisting of seniors and juniors with the sophomores acting as subs, was under the guidance of Sister M. Annicc. The team played several outside games, and lost to St. Patrick’s of Kankakee and St. John’s of Whiting. The class tournament, which always incites keen interest among the students, was taken by the sophomores. With the warmer weather coming on, tennis balls, rackets, baseballs, and bats are much in evidence. Students, both boys and girls, make use of the tennis courts and the baseball field.

The decorations were effective in the Valentine theme. The couples danced to the rhythmic music of Lester Henderson. On the ticket committee were: Rita Jane Carlson, and Frances Connelly. On the program committee were: Mary Rita Joyce, and Mary Frances Reynolds. There were many other committees who contributed much to the success and beauty of the Marquette Hop. Page forty-two PROM FRESHMAN PLAY The Most Beautiful Prom that Central ever had” was given by the present senior class. Beau Brummel” with his Queen in Calico” breezed into the beautifully decorated gym and swung and swayed to the rhythms of Mickey Isley. Around the artistic Wishing Well, old friends met and enjoyed a pleasant reunion. The grand march was led by the class presidents with their guests. As the color- ful crowd drifted away one could sum it up and say — This was a truly a never-to-be-forgotten evening.” The decorations are down, the dresses put away in tissue paper, the programs are faded, but the memory will linger on. On December 18, 193 8, the freshman class presented a one-act play entitled Fiat Lux,” meaning Coming of the Light.” The play depicted the Christmas spirit: the coming of Christ. Azariah rebelled against the faith because his daughter, a cripple, and son, a soldier, had been called to Eternity. On Christ- mas Eve he had a dream in which his son and daughter appear to him, after which he returns to the faith.

Page Forty- five “ROSE OF THE SOUTHLAND” The Class of ’39 scored again, with the presentation of Rose of the Southland,” as their final achievement. The scenes of the play, a striking comedy involving the joys and sorrows of one Dorinda Family, were laid on a Southern plantation. Rose, a lovely daughter of the South, was played by Frances Connelly, while Thomas Manion is her blind, ageing father, Major Dorinda. The third member of this family of quality folks,” as Mammy Evelina, played by Margaret Ramsay, calls them, is Bud Dorinda the younger brother, portrayed by Ed Gibbs. Of course, the audience was greatly pleased with the way Grant Lee, enacted by Bob Kolb, handled the suave domineering lawyer, Alfred Hickson, Perrv Thompson. Other members of the cast included: Stell Regan, as Ruth Beverage; Hallie Mudro, as Elizabeth Poynter; Carolyn Cvitkovich, as Stephanie De Barrie; and Rosemary Heckelman as Hallie Burke.
