Bishop Noll High School - Marquette Yearbook (Hammond, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 154 of the 1955 volume:

-x x? ,: ! A 4o Ja U. FATHER MARQUETTE EXPLORERS are romantic, adventurous, intrepid people who throw caution to the winds as they set sail on the seas of some unknown in quest of an end worthy of their daring and abandon. Pere Marquette was just such an explorer of the prairie lands drained by the Mississippi and its tributaries. It was this dauntless French priest who sowed the seeds of Catholicism of which we are garnering the harvest today. , ... a like spirit, twenty years ago the editors of Noll ' s annual staff selected Fr. Marquette as their lodestar and changed the name of the year book of Bishop Noll High School in his honor. Subsequent staffs mapped eighteen ■ similar sallies, as return trips to volumes 1 to 19 give permanent evidence. This is the twentieth venture to explore and to record for posterity the 1 . p ogress — religious, social and educational — of Nollites and their faculty. % , wm 4 JOHN FRANCIS NOLL, D.D.| Archbishop Bishop of Fort Wayne r Ml The Most Reverend LEO A. PURSLEY, D.D. Auxiliary Bishop of Fort Wayne 5 BISHOP NOLL HIGH SCHOOL Bishop Noll High School, 1519 Hoffman Street, Hammond, Indiana, is the home of 1389 students each day from 8:25 A.M. to 2:14 P.M. Noll High, now one of the largest high schools in the Calumet area, has grown to its present proportions through thirty-four years of sacrifice and progress by faculty, students, and friends of the school. At its founding in 1921 the school was known as Catholic Central High School and temporary classrooms at St. Mary ' s Parish, East Chicago, were used to accommodate the first enrollment of forty students. In 1922 the school moved to the present location in what was then a five-room tar paper building. The buildi ngs now on the campus are the result of a building program begun in 1923 when Rev. P. J. Schmid was appointed first director of the school. The original staff of the school were the Poor Handmaid Sisters of Jesus Christ whose Mother- house is at Donaldson, Indiana. In 1933 the Sis¬ ters of the Holy Cross came to Noll High. There are now twenty-two Sisters of the Holy Cross on the faculty. Other members of the present faculty include seven priests and ten lay teachers. Father Conway, now pastor of St. Mary of the Lake Parish, Miller, succeeded Father Schmid as director in 1934. Rev. A. J. Junk, the present principal, made his first appearance on the fac¬ ulty at Noll in 1933 as teacher and athletic director. After six years he became principal and has served in that capacity ever since. In 1947 Catholic Central became Bishop Noll High School in honor of Bishop John Fran¬ cis Noll, D.D., now Archbishop ad personam. Bishop of the Diocese of Fort Wayne and a great benefactor of the school. Bishop Noll High School has grown at such a rapid pace since its foundation in 1921 that the present year necessitated the opening of an extension at St. Joseph ' s Parish, Hammond, to alleviate the crowded conditions on the campus. 6 Expansion and improvement throughout the years have characterized not only the building program, but also the curricular and athletic program offered by the school. Extra-curricular activities have also been greatly extended. Approximate seventy per cent of Noll alumni go on to higher education and the majority of its students follow the college preparatory courses. There are, however, four dif ferent curricula of¬ fered: the Classical, the Scientific, the Commercial, and the General. Although much progress has been made in the comparatively short lifetime of Bishop Noll High School, there still are many more things for which loyal Nollites are and will be striving in the years to come. Among these things might be listed new cafeteria accommodations and a field house. These dreams will be realistic if there prevails among all present and future Nollites a continuation of the wonderful spirit of sacrifice and cooperation that has always been so out¬ standing along with the combined appreciation of the value and importance of Catholic education. CHURCH OF SAINT MARGARET MARY The beautiful Norman French Gothic Church located on Noll ' s campus is dedi¬ cated to St. Margaret Mary. In 1947 Archbishop Noll authorized Rev. Everard N. Klein, then a member of Noll ' s faculty, to form a parish in the vicinity of the school. Until the completion and dedication of the church. Sept. 21, 1952, Mass was held in the school gym. Students now have the privilege of attending Mass and receiving Holy Communion daily before classes, and an especially large number is present on every First Friday of the month. Students also have an opportunity to visit the Blessed Sacrament during lunch or after school. THE GROTTO The Lourdes Grotto of our Blessed Lady on the school campus is an important place for every Noll student. It has been especially so during the past year because of the many special Marian Year blessings that could be obtained. The Grotto was built by former Noll students in their spare time under the direction of Sister M. Ivan. After much hard work, it was completed and dedicated in September, 1942. An important feature of the Grotto is the stone that it contains from the Lourdes Grotto in France. All Noll students meet at the Grotto each October to form the Living Rosary and again in May to crown Mary and sing her praises. It is a custom, too, for the football team to make a visit to Mary before and after home football games. The Grotto is a favorite meeting place for all students. ADMINISTRATION PERE MARQUETTE was explorer and teacher. For that reason, we place him rightly at the head of these pages filled with the accounts of faculty members of 1955 who join their endeavors with those of previous educa¬ tional explorers who have led the thousands of BNHS students through the labyrinths of religion, science, history, and language. Bands of Catholic students have emerged with Marquette leaders at their head to join the ranks of Christian citizens of the Calumet area. In the following pages are friends as well as educators. Here are the teachers whose example and friendship we shall cherish long after we have forgotten the algebraic formula they taught. Here are the heroes and the heroines whose lives of dedication we silently chartered as they led us through the wonderlands of lives of religious, civic, and cultural colossi. Yes, here on these pages are pictured those intrepid Christian explorers who helped us to discover US. REV. ALFRED J. JUNK Principal Father Junk came to Bishop Noll High School after his ordination to the priesthood in 1933 and has spent his entire priesthood of twenty-two years in the service of the school. His first pos¬ ition on the faculty was that of teacher and athletic director. After serving as teacher for six years, he became principal in 1939 and is presently serving in that capacity. Father Junk has seen the school grow in many ways during his career at Noll High. The enrollment has grown from less than 200 when he first came to almost 1400 at the present time. Much needed classroom space has been added by the new two story addition, by the conversion of gymnasium space to classrooms, and finally by the opening of an extension at St. Joseph ' s Parish, Hammond. The curricular, extra-curricu¬ lar, and athletic programs also have been ex¬ tended and improved. In spite of his many varied duties as prin¬ cipal, Father Junk always manages to find time to visit with the students and help them in every possible way. His cooperation and concern for the students has helped in great measure to promote a wonderful spirit at Bishop Noll High School. 12 SISTER M. IVAN, C.S.C. Assistant Principal Dean of Girls Commercial Subjects Although Sister Ivan is new to the school in her role as Assistant Principal and Dean of Girls, all will remember her from past years as one of the students ' most enthusiastic backers. Cheer¬ fulness and a willingness to help have always been two of her outstanding qualities and have contributed to her success in her new duties. Through her good example and genuine interest in the welfare of the girls, Sister has exerted a powerful influence in molding the characters of the young ladies of Bishop Noll High School. REV. F. J. MELEVAGE Dean of Men Religion, History, Music Father Melevage has long been known to all Nollites as one of the most energetic and versatile members of the faculty. Besides his duties as a teacher of Religion and history, he also directs the Senior Choral Club and is the Dean of Boys. As Dean, his advice, encourage¬ ment, and personal example have helped to instill in Noll ' s men a true Christian outlook on life. His quiet humor and congenialty have won for him many friends among the entire student body. 13 SISTERS OF THE HOLY CROSS SISTER M. AGNES REGINA, C.S.C. Religion, English, History SISTER M.

WILLIAM JANZ Secretary-T reasurer The Fathers ' Club of Noll High extends its membership not only to fathers of the students but also to alumni and other men interested in providing a complete Catholic education for Noll students. Business meetings are held regularly once a month and from time to time there are joint meetings with the Mothers ' Club to discuss common problems and interests. Social activities of the Fathers ' Club include the popular fall and spring smokers, which are purely stag, and also their Christmas party together with the Mothers ' Club. Still another project sponsored by the Fathers ' and Mothers ' Clubs jointly is the annual athletic banquet. The contribution of the Fathers ' Club to Noll ' s athletic program is invaluable. During the football and basketball seasons members help with the clerical work at home games and also provide transportation for the team for games away from home. Each class is represented by a Vice-President in the Fathers Club. Class Vice-Presidents are Mr. Bernard Taillon, Freshman; Mr. Harold Mason, Junior; Mr. Milan Dotlich, Sophomore; and Mr. William Creviston, Senior. MOTHERS CLUB MRS. GENEVA VLASIC MRS. EDWARD DONOVAN MRS. WALTER MICHAELS MRS. THOMAS GOZDECKI President Recording Secretary Corresponding Secretary Treasurer The Mothers ' Club of Bishop Noll High School, headed this year by Mrs. Geneva Vlasic, is one of the most active of its kind in the region. Fr. Junk, the principal, is moderator for the club whose motto is For God, our home, and our sons and daughters. In addition to their monthly business and social meetings, the Mothers ' Club annually presents a shower for the Sisters teaching at Noll High. One of the biggest and most popular projects of the club is their annual style show and card party at which both parents and students model the latest styles and fashions. The Mothers ' Club also works in conjunction with the Fathers ' Club in sponsoring the annual athletic banquet at which honor is paid to all Noll students who participate in the sports program. Both the Mothers ' and Fathers ' Clubs also help with the annual bazaar in late spring. The Vice-Presidents of the Mothers Club for each class are Mrs. James Kinnane, Freshman; Mrs. Steven Kochis, Sopho¬ more; Mrs. Benedict Bubala, Junior; and Mrs. John Dienes, SENIORS THE SENIORS at Noll are the student leaders and are being prepared to be the Catholic leaders of their homes, communities, and nation. To be a good leader, a person must be developed as a whole person. Just as Fr. Marquette saw the Indian, not as an uncivilized savage but as a child of God, so the senior is viewed as a tremendous pote ntial: a child of God. Through religion classes and private counseling, the faculty helps to pilot and direct the senior ' s spiritual life so that he may more easily and more fully attain the end for which he was brought into being. If the senior knows how to attain his own eternal end, he will be prepared to assist others to this end. To live happily in this world of people, the senior must learn of the give and take of human relations. No better place for this can be found than the classroom and extra-curricular program. Here are met people of various stages of maturity, people of different temperaments, people of different interests and talents. If, by the time he graduates, the senior has begun to accept and to live with people as they are, he is on the road to leader¬ ship and bcoming a whole person. JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM ON MAY 20 The Junior-Senior Promenade introduced the annual round of social events that marked the end of the school year and the high school careers of the Seniors. The Prom, which is the biggest event on the social calendar, is given each year by the Junior class in honor of the graduating Seniors. The results of the Juniors ' many hours of preparation for the affair were, as usual, kept top secret until the evening of the Prom when the school gymnasium was transformed into a lovely ballroom where the fellows and girls, formally attired, danced to the music of a popular band. The faculty members and chaperones attending the Prom enjoyed the evening as much as the students for whom it was an unforgettable experience of their high school days. BACCALAUREATE MASS AT ST. JOSEPH S CHURCH Soon after the annual May crowning of the Blessed Virgin on May 20, the Baccalaureate Solemn High Mass was celebrated June 2 at St. Joseph ' s Church, Hammond. The priests of the faculty were the ministers of the Mass. The special Baccalaureate Choir was under the direction of Rev. F. Melevage, Senior Choral Director at Noll, and Rev. D. Peil, assistant pastor of St. Mark ' s Parish, Gary. The sermon en¬ couraged the graduates to remain steadfast in their faith in spite of others and always to live according to the principles taught them at Noll High. The Seniors rece ived Holy Communion in a body as one of their last acts as students of Bishop Noll High School. After the Mass, the graduates and their parents enjoyed the breakfast prepared for them at Memorial Hall, East Chicago, by the mothers of the Junior students. COMMENCEMENT HELD AT CIVIC CENTER JUNE 5 On June 5, the Hammond Civic Center was the scene of the 1955 Commencement Exercises of Bishop Noll High School. As parents, friends, and relatives of the graduating seniors sat eagerly watching, the seniors in academic dress slowly filed into the audi¬ torium to the accompaniment of the strains of the familiar processional. The program opened the Valedictory and Salutatory addresses given by the scholastically rated highest senior boy and girl of the class. The Commencement address by the guest speaker followed. Words of congratulation and farewell were addressed to the graduates by Father Junk, Principal, who then conferred on them their high school diplomas and presented the various awards and scholarships to those outstanding students who had won them. The solemn strains of the recessional accompanied the former Seniors, now Alumni of Bishop Noll High School, as they proceeded slowly and thoughtfully out of the auditorium to meet the world. SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS RICHARD REFFKIN Senior Class President All underclasses have four officers for each homeroom. The seniors, however, follow a slight¬ ly different plan. Each senior homeroom has a Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, and they elect one representative from the class at large to act as president of the entire senior class and as spokesman for the student body at large. Richard Reffkin was chosen by the seniors as their class president. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Reffkin, Dick came to Noll High from St. Mary ' s School, East Chicago. At Noll he has been a member of the varsity football team and a member of the Monogram Club. His scholastic ability is also evident from his membership in the Bi-Phy-Chem and National Honor Society.

KAY SENIOR HOMEROOM TREASURERS MONICA SLAMKA HONOR STUDENTS VALEDICTORIAN AND SALUTATORIAN M. FISHER AND J. GAZDIK LEAD SENIORS Shortly after the second semester gets under way, anticipation always mounts as the student body awaits the announcement of the Valedictorian and Salutatorian of the graduating class. That announcement came on Monday, Feb. 7, as Fr. Junk, Principal, named Marlene Fisher and John Gazdik respectively as Valedictorian and Salutatorian of the Class of 1955. These outstanding honors are awarded to the senior girl and boy who have earned the greatest number of honor points in their classes. As Valedictorian, Marlene Fisher has earned the distinction of the highest scholastic ranking member of her class. John Gazdik, as the highest ranking boy of the Class of 1955, represented his class as Salutatorian. MARLENE FISHER Class Valedictorian Marlene Fisher, the daughter of Mrs. Helen Fisher of Gary, attended St. Casimir ' s grade school in Gary before coming to Noll High School. Her outstanding scholastic accomplishments at Noll have earned for her the distinction of the top ranking student of her class and the honor of Class Valedictorian. She has also been active in extra-curricular activities and has been a member of the National Honor Society, Tri- Opus, Bi-Phy-Chem, Red Cross, Choral Club, S.D.S., and C.S.M.C. After graduation Miss Fisher plans to attend a southern college and hopes to become a buyer. JOHN GAZDIK Class Salutatorian John Gazdik, the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Gazdik, attended Morton Elementary school and is a member of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish, Hessville. At Noll High it was his scholastic ability and achievements that won for him the honor of Class Salutatorian as the highest ranking boy of his class. His special interests lie in the field of science, and he was a member of the Bi-Phy-Chem, honorary scientific club, and the National Honor Society. Mr. Gazdik plans to continue his education in the fall at Purdue University where he intends to major in chemical engineering. NATIONAL HISTORY CONTEST JOSEPH F. GARTNER One of the outstanding scholastic events that occurs annually at Noll High is the selection of one student for the National History Contest sponsored by the Chicago American Newspaper. After burning midnight oil for several days and delving into the vital facts of American history, seven seniors took the preliminary examination and vied for the honor of representing Noll in the contest. From this group of well qualified seniors, Joseph Gartner, Hammond, was chosen as Noll High ' s representative in the finals held in Chicago. SENIORS OF NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY FIRST ROW: C. Cera, J.

ZIELASKOWSKI St. Joseph, East Chicago CAMERA-SHY SENIORS JOSEPH GARCIA THOMAS HABERKORN DENNIS O ' CONNELL 49 THE UNDERCLASSMEN, though merely novices in their explorations on the path of high education and high school life, are with each passing day gaining most important knowledge as well as a growing self-confidence. From the day the journey is first begun as freshmen, their knowledge of many varied subjects, and especially of people, is broadened and enriched through study and personal experience, just as the early explorer, Pere Marquette, once gained his knowledge of our land and people through his experiences and travel. During the happy and comparatively carefree days of early high school life, a sense of belonging is developed as the underclassmen learn to meet and to conquer many new problems and difficulties presented to them either socially or in the classroom. Their mastery of these situations intro¬ duces them more intimately to the scholastic and social worlds of school life at Noll and helps to prepare them for the acceptance of responsibility. To the blossoming sophomore, to the more confident junior, and especially to the retiring freshmen, the day they will assume senior leadership may seem to be in the far distant future. When it finally does come, however, they will realize how much the work and experiences of their first years at Noll have conditioned them for the last lap of adventure, not only for their roles as seniors, but also for their life after graduation.

The ability of the actual participants, along with the interest and support of the entire student body, has made sports the center of attraction this past year. Fr. Marquette strove for conversions with no more enthusiasm than Nollites strove for victory. He accepted defeats in the spirit of faith, as did the Noll Warrior teams through their sportsman-like conduct. Football and basketball attracted the most attention. But baseball, track, and golf also found many participants and ardent rooters. In addition to these usual sports activities, Noll High School explored new fields in ' 55 athletics. Swimming teams, wrestling, and bowling leagues all were dis¬ covered for the first time by pioneer Noll sport enthusiasts and land marks were made in early records of pristine endeavor. 76 ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT The Athletic Department at Bishop Noll High School under the direction of Fr. Zimmerman and Mr. Huffine is, of course, a major part of the extra-curricular pro¬ gram. Noll High offers as wide a variety of sports to its students as any school in the area. Besides the major sports of football, basketball, and baseball, track, wrestling, swimming, and golf are also included in the expanding athletic program. Though not actually sponsored by the school, bowling is also available to both boys and girls through the agency of the school. The Athletic Department is headed by Fr. Zimmerman and Mr. Huffine and also includes Coaches Buckley, Hudson, Dermody, Dunleavy, and Quinn. MR. KARL HUFFINE Mr. Huffine is athletic director and head football coach. He is Fr. Zimmerman ' s right- hand man on all matters concerning Noll High ' s athletic program. It is through his coaching that Noll High has won state wide recognition as a power in football. His famous hat and cigar stub are familiar to all in the Lake County region. REV. A. J. ZIMMERMAN Fr. Zimmerman, one of the faculty ' s busiest members, is the priest-advisor and head of all athletics at Noll High. Through his efforts, the athletic program of Noll has been changed from a mediocre one to one of the best in the state. Fr. Zimmerman graduated from Noll in 1936 and after his ordination to the priesthood, returned to Noll High as one of its ablest faculty members. MR. JAMES BUCKLEY Mr. Buckley is line coach in football and head baseball and swimming coach. It is through Coach Buckley ' s efforts that Noll High has a very healthy and strong school spirit. Sportsmanship and character are of prime importance. M. Buckley is also faculty sponsor of the Monogram Club. MR. JOHN DERMODY Coach Dermody returned to Noll High as a faculty member a year ago after a successful basketball career at Purdue Uni¬ versity. He graduated from Noll in 1949 and is now assistant coach in football and coach of the basketball reserves. Though only in his second year as a coach, Mr. Dermody shows promising talents for a suc¬ cessful coaching career. MR. GEORGE DUNLEAVY Mr. Dunleavy, also a Noll alumnus, completed his second year at Noll High this year. As coach of the reserve football team, he piloted an undefeated squad this year. Mr. Dunleavy also coaches track and freshmen basketball. MR. EDGAR HUDSON Basketball, sometimes called Hoosier Hoopla, requires tedious efforts on the part of the coach. The efforts of Coach Hudson have been rewarded with teams that not only rank among the best in the Calumet Region but with the best in the state. Mr. Hudson is head basketball coach at Noll and also coaches the golf team. MR. JOHN QUINN Noll high added another coach to its staff this year. Mr. Quinn, who had been a local grade school coach, this year moved up among the high school ranks. He coaches wrestling and freshmen football. Mr. Quinn is a graduate of Purdue University. 77 MISS BERNICE HEROD Miss Herod is the director of athletics for the girls at Noll. Besides handling the girls ' gym classes, she sponsors the Booster Club and the cheerleaders.

Its aim, well accomplished, is to build and maintain school spirit and interest in supporting the Noll Warrior teams. During the football season a special project of the Booster Club is the Home¬ coming parade and bonfire. The girls of the club traditionally appear at the Homecoming game with their blue and gold shakers and N-centered mums. Besides periodic pep sessions during the football and basketball seasons, the Booster Club outdoes itself in the pre-sectional basketball tournament pep sessions. Colorful posters deck Noll ' s halls at this time and the pep session skits always provide much fun and are a real boost to school spirit. Miss Herod is the faculty sponsor of the Booster Club. This year Bob Bunjan was elected president; Gloria Tatarek, vice-president; Tom Bonaventura, secretary; and Anita Sedlak, treasurer. FIRST ROW: L. Young, R. Klonowski, F. Szymonik, B. Gober, M.

To be eligible for membership an athlete must participate in one-half of the total number of quarters of varsity competition in football, basketball, baseball, or track. The Monogram Club encourages better sportsmanship and gives athletes a goal for which to work. The Club also encourages grade school athletics and sponsors new sports at Noll High. Among the social events on the club calendar are the Homecoming Dance and their own post-game dances. FIRST ROW: D. Reffkin, J. Hughes, J. Bielefeld, R. Buzinski, B. Bradtke, J. Bell. SECOND ROW: D.

Such is the case, because exploring the events of a high school year provides many pleasant occasions for those who have participated in an operetta, conducted an assembly, or taken pride in belonging to one of the honorary societies. Every talent and ability has ample opportunity to be discovered and de¬ veloped. Exploration soon brings into the limelight many students to repre¬ sent the school in every field. There are journalists to put out yearbooks and senior sketches; artists and cartoonists to prepare spirited posters for dances, parties, and athletic events; actors and actresses to demonstrate their gifts in plays and musical productions. Fr. Marquette ' s life provides an excellent example for showing the need of combining spiritual motives and atmosphere to gay, lighthearted activities. Imitation of him is the reason for the Noll students ' continued success in their many endeavors. The united efforts of faculty and students have made the extra-curricular program at Noll complete in fulfilling each student ' s need for opportunities to construct a firm, Catholic, social life for himself. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The Honor Society at Noll High is officially known as the Marynoll Chapter of the National Honor Society and is now seven years old. Its purpose, as stated in the national constitution of the Society, is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to develop character in the students of Bishop Noll High School. Members, therefore, when elected by the faculty twice a year, are chosen equally on the basis of the four qualities of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. Also a necessary pre-requisite for membership is that the students be in the upper scholastic one-third of their respective classes and have completed at least two semesters at Bishop Noil High School. Members of the Honor Society assume the leadership in proper parliamentary procedure in school meetings and elections. The Society also finances annually a four- year cumulative scholarship to Noll High. Money for the scholarship fund is raised through the annual spring dance held by the group. Sister M. Ivan, Dean of girls and Assistant Principal, is the new faculty sponsor of the Honor Society this year. Student officers are Jim Bielefeld, president; Jeanette Knight, vice-president; Peggy Fisko, secretary; and Tom Kilman, treasurer. ■ JM wr IW f v il FIRST ROW: B. Ramusack, C. Cera, T. Keilman, J.

Since the beginning of the organiza¬ tion at Noll some years ago, its membership has continued to expand at an unprece¬ dented rate. As a result, more and more Noll students have become mission-minded. Through a program of devotion, study, and apostolicity, the C.S.M.C. encourages its members along with the entire student body to develop a deep love and concern for the peoples of less fortunate lands. C.S.M.C. activities are manifold. Attendance at the National C.S.M.C. Convention held in August of 1954 at Notre Dame University was one of the projects of the Club. Then during the school year mission collections are taken up weekly and other projects are arranged to raise money to support both the home and foreign missions. The work of the various Study Clubs continues the mission work and gives participants opportun¬ ities to learn about the missions and to air their views on mission topics. Each first Friday of the month full mission reports and religious programs are presented on the Noll public address system for the benefit of all students. Sister Maria Concepta and Sister M. Ivan work together as faculty sponsors of the local C.S.M.C. Student officers are Stanley Bumbales, president; Joyce O ' Drobinak, vice-president; Martha Ward, secretary; and Bill Napiwocki, treasurer. C.S.M.C. STUDY CLUBS FIRST ROW: J. Vargo, A. Benich, C.

MANY NOLLITES ATTEND MISSION CONVENTION Last summer many Noll students attended the four-day convention of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade at Notre Dame University. The huge throng of bishops, priests, nuns, and delegates of the convention formed a procession to the Navy Drill Hall on the University campus for their opening session. There they were officially welcomed by the Very Reverend Theodore M. Hesburgh, President of Notre Dame. The key address was given by Archbishop Alter of Cincinnati, the National President of the C.S.M.C. The Archbishop stressed the importance of the missions in combating Com¬ munism and he introduced a number of priests and nuns whom the Communists had unsuccessfully tried to brainwash. Among these was the famous Chinese Cardinal Tien. Various group meetings were held during the next two days. These meetings were of two types. There were area meetings at which the delegates were acquainted with the problems facing missionaries in various parts of the world. Secondly, there were workshop meetings at which the delegates were shown various activities that could be carried on in schools to help the missions. On the evening of the second day the Concert Choir of Xavier University of Louisiana gave a concert for the entertainment of the delegates. On the evening of the third day all the delegates formed a candlelight procession to the renowned Notre Dame Grotto for Solemn Benediction. All of the Noll students who attended the convention enjoyed every minute of it. They came home with a greater appreciation of the missions of the Catholic Church and with a greater zeal to work for them. FIRST ROW: B. Baltes, J. Rohrman, M. O ' Rourke, M. Nau, M. Ryder, C.

Membership is limited to students who maintain a minimum average of B in one of the three sciences offered, biology, physics, or chemistry. The club holds monthly meetings at which one of the three divisions presents a scientific demonstration of interest to all members. This year the club reviewed the Science Fair. It was held in the late spring and the general public was invited to attend. The gym was converted into a huge laboratory and each student of science shared in the presentation of the scientific exhibits. Prizes were awarded for the best and most interesting projects. A field trip for members to the Museum of Science and Industry is also sponsored by the club. Sister Rosalia, biology teacher, is the faculty moderator of the club.

This money was used not only for membership fees, but also for one hundred twenty-five gift boxes for children of other lands, tray favors for local institutions, toys for the Hammond Good Cheer Drive, and needs of the local poor. Each year the Club also sponsors a dance for the benefit of the school. Sister M. Andrew directs the local Junior Red Cross Unit as faculty moderator. Students officers are Audrey Benich, president; Richard Meister, vice-president; Mary Kay Mehan, secretary; and John Groff, treasurer. Each home room also has a repre¬ sentative in the Unit. SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS The Sunday School Teachers are an outstanding but not too well known group of Catholic Action workers at Noll High School. These young ladies, generous with both their time and effort, teach religion to the grade school children at St. Margaret Mary ' s Church each Sunday. Through their diligent labors the light of Faith is shown to God ' s little ones. FIRST ROW: V. Bielak, B. Zaleski, M. A. Wade, M. Wontorek. SECOND ROW: B. Moldraski, C. Kulcsar, C. Kowalkowski. STAMP CLUB On Jan. 31, 1955, the Bishop Noll High School Philatelic Club became an entity. The organization of this club was due to the enthusiasm of the school ' s stamp collectors. It is now one of the youngest, yet most energetic and educational clubs of the school. Its purpose is to further the knowledge of the world through the collection of stamps. Sponsor of the Club is Sister M. Clare Ellen, school librarian. Student officers are Charles Backe, president; Tom Yorke, vice-president; Marilyn Miterbo, secretary; and James Pavlovich, treasurer.

Berenice, formed a new club this year in order to learn more of the culture of France and create an added interest in the language. All first and second year French students are eligible for membership. In this, the club ' s first year, the members have tried to interest other students in the French course offered at Noll. Among the major projects of La Cercle Francois are corresponding with students in France and sponsoring an annual dance. Paul Goodus is president of the French Club, Jackie Nowicki is vice-president, Joan Leeney secretary, and Ted Wilson treasurer. LE CIRCLE lFRRNCRIS FIRST ROW: A. Mardietko, S. Buchstaber, D.

The artistic posters found in the halls and area stores serve as effective advertisements of forthcoming activities. As publicity agent for the 1954 Winter Formal, the Prop and Publicity did an exceptionally good job on their posters. This is merely one example of the grand work done by this hard-working group of loyal Nollites. As is evident, the Club affords its members ample opportunities to develop and express their artistic talents. Through their basketball tournament posters, the members are responsible for much of the excitement and school spirit evident at that time. The Club is also very helpful in advertising the annual school bazaar. Sister M. Ivan sponsors the Club. Student officers are Aurelia Duralski, president; Mary Frances Moose, secretary, and Carol Bucholz, treasurer. FIRST ROW: J. Kochis, P. Hoffman, M. Melyan, M. Moose, A. Duralski, C. Bucholz, P.

The S. D. S. Club has become one of the biggest and most popular clubs at Noll High School. It was started three years ago with a membership of eleven girls and now has a membership of over three hundred. The primary purpose of the S. D. S. Club is to demand that designers and fashion retailers produce and buy such clothes as are in accordance with the principles advanced by the Holy Father in his encyclical Cast! Conubii. In this encyclical His Holiness stresses the importance of modesty in feminine clothes which are, at the same time, modern and attractive. Included in the club calendar are a series of dances in order to build up a scholar¬ ship fund. Style shows and programs are presented for Noll students and various social organizations at which attractive and modest fashions are modeled and interesting talks on the phases and implications of modesty in dress are given. A delegation of Noll High S.D.S. members attended the S.D.S. convention held at the Sheraton Hotel in Chicago in February. Sister M. Ivan, Assistant Principal, sponsors the S.D.S. Club. The officers of the Club are President Kathleen Mauch, Vice-President Sharon Evon, Secretary-Treasurer Maria Farnelli. The officers also include four board members: Carole Cera, Joanne Gruszka, Monica Homolla, and Joan Skawinski. Sitting: M. Farnelli and K. Mauch. Standing: C. Cera, M. Homolla, J. Skawinski, J.

STUDENTS PRESENT ANNIE GET YOUR GUN A smash hit on Broadway, a tremendous movie, the musical comedy, Annie Get Your Gun , was this year ' s presentation of the Noll Dramatic Club under the direction of Miss Joan Salon. Annie is invited to compete in a shooting match against Frank Butler, a member of Buffalo Bill ' s Wild West Show. She defeats him and is invited by Buffalo Bill to join his troupe. Already in love with Frank, she accepts and tries desperately to win him. Given the chance to steal the show, she does, thinking Frank will propose afterwards. But the tables turn. Frank, unable to take second billing, quits to join Pawnee Bill ' s troupe, a rival show. After some months apart from Annie, Frank realizes he is in love with her, and when they meet again is about to pop the question , when the question of who is the better marksman forces them into another shooting match. This time Annie ' s friends make sure she loses the match but wins Frank. PERSONAE ANNIE . FRANK BUTLER . CHARLIE DAVENPORT . DOLLY TATE . WINNIE TATE . TOMMY . MINNIE . JOSSIE . LITTLE JAKE .

Publication of the paper is assumed by the Junior class at the beginning of the second semester, and this year ' s enthusiastic group of workers spent many after¬ school hours in the preparation of a paper that was well liked by the student body. Through the combined efforts of the reporters, copy writers, typists, and assemblers, this end was realized. A well-received improvement in this year ' s WARRIOR was the publication of a printed paper, as opposed to the mimeographed paper of former years. Fr. Traub is faculty sponsor of THE WARRIOR. Co-editors are Audrey Benich, Mary Kay Spalding, and Marge Wontorek. Jim Hudspeth and Jim Mason handle all sports activities, and Jane Austgen and Marilyn Giedemann are feature editors. FIRST ROW: C.

The main annual project of this group is the publication of the Senior Sketches which contains a brief biographical account of each member of the Senior Class. The work on this book is begun early in the school year because it requires a great deal of time and effort to interview each Senior and then organize, compile, and edit the material for publication. Faculty advisor of the Journalism Club is Sister M. Victorine. Co-editors are Jane Austgen, Carol Klamm, and Mary Kay Spalding. FIRST ROW: M. Choklus, C. Kasza, J. Kruchowski, C. Klamm, D. Leeney, J.

From the time the Staff is first chosen to the day the yearbook is sent out to the printer for publica¬ tion, they try to devise ways to make the book bigger, better, and more interesting to the students. During the many after-school hours of work in preparing and editing the book, members are given an opportunity to write and edit for publication. Finances, picture layout, and advertising are also problems to be solved. The big task of the Marquette Staff is the production of a yearbook of which the school can be proud and a permanent record of the activity of the scholastic year. Fr. Seimetz is the faculty advisor of the Marquette Staff. Co-editors are Barbara Ramusack and Tim Galvin. Other important posts are filled by Millie Babyak, art editor; Anita Sedlak, literary editor, and Mary Ann Fiedler and Joe Gartner, business co- chairmen. FIRST ROW: P. Fisko, T. Bridgman, M.

Crowded schedules and facilities present difficulties, but the difficulties are surmounted and results produced. The major production of the Music Department is the annual operetta presented predominately, but not exclusively, by the Senior Choral Club under Fr. Melevage ' s direction. Members of the Junior Choral Club also share in this production. The Junior Choral Club, directed by Sister Edith, has a crowded schedule around Christmas time with many requests from neighboring organizations and business houses for their caroling. Form time to time requests also come to the Music Department from area parishes and societies for musical programs. A year ago saw the inception of a new marching band under the direction of Mr. Mooney. New blue and gold uniforms were procured. The band, now numbering sixty-one members, has been practicing faithfully and shows great strides of improvement. Close to the end of the school year the entire Music Department collaborates in the presentation of the Spring Concert. Both the Senior and Junior Choral Clubs present selections and the band presents a concert. An interesting and anticipated feature of the Spring Concert is the an nouncement of and a short selection from the operetta to be presented the following year. Not only are the programs and productions of the Music Department of interest and entertainment to the school at large and the general public, but the benefits of the participating students are even more important. They are given an opportunity to develop their own talents in instrumental music, voice culture, and the appreciation of good music. 119 JUNIOR CHORAL CLUB FIRST ROW: M. Lewandowski, J. Hap, J.

Melevage and Sister Edith, the Music Department presented three outstanding performances of Victor Herbert ' s Fortune Teller at the Whiting Community Theater on Jan. 27, 29, and 30 to large and enthusiastic audiences. Sub-zero weather undoubtedly influenced attendance of the first performance, but the house was packed for the final performance on Sunday evening. The three months of practice and rehearsals of the large cast were very evident in the excellent performances of all concerned. Over one hundred students and six faculty members worked together to make Noll High ' s presentation of The Fortune Teller a huge success. Many of the audience commented that The Fortune Teller was the best of many well done pro¬ ductions of the Music Department. FORTUNE TELLER CAST Fresco, Ballet Master of the Livonian Grand Opera.

The enthusiasm of the student body reached its peak as preparations were made to welcome home Noll alumni and the Warrior team. The Booster Club, under the direction of Miss Herod, carefully planned the traditional activities for the week-end and their efforts proved exiciting from the very start. Mr. Touchdown and the Homecoming Queen were elected after very close balloting. Monica Slamka was elected Homecoming Queen with Millie Babyak, Sharon Evan, Joanne Gruszka, Sue Kilnow- itz, and Jackie Nowicki as her attendants. Contenders for the title of Mr. Touchdown were Tom Bona- ventura, Jim Bielefeld, Jim Hughes, Jim Merker, Dick Reffkin, and Jerry Vlasic. The title went to Jim Bielefeld. Pre-game Homecoming festivities began on Oct. 28, the eve of the game, when a mass of cars and floats decorated in blue and gold paraded through Hammond and East Chicago. Jim Mr. Touchdown Bielefeld and Homecoming Queen Monica Slamka with her attendants rode one of the main floats in the parade. Following closely behind were the cheer leaders and the school band. The parade was greeted with loud cheers as it returned to Noll ' s baseball field where students had assembled for the bonfire and pep rally. Highlighting the rally was an appropriate and amusing skit presented by mem¬ bers of the Senior class. As the bonfire blazed, short pep talks were given by the coaches, cheers were led, and refreshments served. The evening ' s activities created a spirited atmosphere which dominated the following day. HOLY TRINITY PARISH (CROATIAN) OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HELP PARISH East Chicago, Indiana Hessville, Indiana 128 The Homecoming Royalty, Queen Mon¬ ica Slamka and Mr. Touchdown (Jim Bielefeld), preside on their Home¬ coming float in the parade. The Queen ' s attendants are Sharon Evan, Sue Kil- nowitz, Jackie Nowicki, Millie Babyak, and Joanne Gruszka. On Oct. 29 a large crowd of spectators saw Noll take on the rugged Morton Governors in one of the most exciting games of the season. Despite the readiness of the Warriors, they were unable to muster enough offense to keep pace with Morton ' s explosive attack. The final score of the game was Morton 13, Noll 7. The loss, however, failed to dampen the spirits of the fans. A lively crowd of students and alumni attended the Homecoming Heaven dance in the school gym immediately following the game. Renold Young and his orchestra provided the music for an enjoyable evening. After Monica Slamka was crowned officially as Homecoming Queen, she and Jim Bielefeld as Mr. Touchdown led the grand march. The dance completed the festivities, and the 1954 Homecoming became a memorable occasion of the past. The success and enjoyment of the Home¬ coming program was due to the Home¬ coming Committee: First Row: P. Ples- niak, C. Cera, M. Babyak, E. Beck, J. Gruszka; Second Row: T. Wilson, J. Nowicki, B.

In 1950 a group of Trappists from Gethsemani Abbey in Kentucky established a new monastary in Pifford. In 1954 the monastary was raised to the status of an Abbey and Dom Gerard McGinley was elected its first Abbot. Abbot Gerard addressed a most attentive student body and stressed the serious¬ ness of human life, the importance of having high ideals, and always giving one ' s best for God in whatever walk of life he may choose. The Abbot also spoke briefly of the Trappist life and its rigorous practices of sacrifice and prayer. J.

Marquette Printer YEARBOOK SPECIALISTS ANN ARBOR MICHIGAN G. A. PRATT CO. Marquette Bookbinder 1108 WEST CHICAGO AVENUE Phone: E. C. 3796 EAST CHICAGO, INDIANA THE EXPLORATIONS and adventures of the Noll student are enclosed within the covers of this book. The accomplishments are revealed, the hopes for the future are outlined, the ideals of faith of each one are related so that a clear picture of a student ' s life is portrayed. For now with the close of another school year, the explorations will cease for the graduated class. It will continue for the underclassmen, until they too discover the real depth of their Catholic faith, the satisfaction of knowledge, and the personal pride derived from achievement and success. Father Marquette has gone before the students as their personal guide. Each one has in some way achieved an exploration that is valuable in such a way to him alone. The belongings, the possessions, the memories that have been collected are now a most endearing part of what has been explored. u f zX- szvu 4 ' L 4 A +. - y -TC. jzL, “ Sv - f u ■ y A 6 AA eC w R s br Ssy s€s ' SWS y tk Mf cMf- 1 r -J r i-rA RQ76 BISH ■ GEN 371.8976 BISH Marquette, j }i y’k T LAKE COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY INDIANA GEN 371.8976 BISH I Marquette. f o r . uoc iN I Nio ONLY AV FF MU BO GR NC CE HI •  RF CL HO SC DY IH SJ EG ME r7 T
