BRIDGEPORT F1H5F1 Presen+s... S U N N Y H I L L P Pio'rure5 and People of 1 Briolgeporf High School ik 3 . . . EdH'ed By Ru+h Gordon Forword We, the Seniors of 1943, have completed four years of high school. Thank Goodness, unthinkingly shout many graduates. But wait, let us consider things a trifle more care- fully. To us, these four years have been long and at times arduous. We have had squabbles with teachers and disappointments in grades. We have encountered numerous difficulties. But still, have these not fused together into one great stimulus forming our char- acter? Have they not tended toward society, ex- panded our outlook, widened our horizon, and above all, increased our knowledge? After completing our course at Bridgeport, we meet the world - or trench. We are only four years older than when we entered high school, but we have matured tar beyond this span. We can now barge into the world with full confidence in our ability - and who will deny that this ability has been fostered and ripened by our high school career? Indeed, let us now review together scenes of the past, scenes dear to us, through the medium of the camera. Let us gaze upon ourselves in retrospect, and upon our successors, the undergraduates. JACK WHITNEY DEDICATION To you, Miss Shelhamer, we, the Class of 1943, dedicate our yearbook. I-'or the countless trials you have undergone in our behalf, for the tireless energy you have ex- pended for our welfare, for the gracious, kindly, gratuitous assistance and guidance you have offered us, we thank you, earnestly and sincerely. Our shortcomings have con- trasted sharply with your excellent talents, if, in our four years of working with you, we have caused you any gladness, may it at least partially repay you for your efforts. That future success may be ever yours is our unanimous wish. . -url .

CHORUS Oh, dear old Bridgeport High, Oh, dear old Bridgeport High, We'll e'er look back to the Bl Oh, dear old Bridgeport High. ue and Black, Administralticwn l MR. ROSS Another school year has passed into history. It has been a very gratifying year to the members oi the Senior Class to have had such a superintendent as Mr. C. H. Ross. Mr. Ross is a superintendent of whom Bridgeport High School can be extremely proud. Since he has joined our school in 1938, many modern changes have taken place. It is through his co-operation that we have taken another rung on the ladder of success. We have all learned to honor and respect Mr. Ross, for the interest he has shown in school affairs, and we, the 1943 Senior Class, hope he'll go on inspiring other classes as he has ours. MISS BOSTON iSecreta1'y to Mr. Rossi MR. WALDORF Mr. Harry Waldorf, our principal, has been with us ever since we entered as freshmen. For his loyal patience, understanding and thought- fulness, we now wish to express our sincere appre- ciation. He has listened to our troubles and our vain excuses, helped us out of difficulties, and guided us through many scholastic trials and tribulations - for all of which we are extremely grateful. In the years to come we shall keep with us this memory of a good and true friend and leader, Mr. Waldorf. MRS. SCAMMEL lSecretary to Mr. Waldorfl BOARD OF EDUCATION To the members of the school board, we give our deepest thanks for helping to make, what we feel is the best school system in the Ohio Valley. They have given their unfailing aid and advice to every problem brought before them, and were tireless in their efforts to do the best for the faculty and student body. Their decisions in all questions have shown intelligence and excellent judgment. We hope that Bridgeport's school boards of the future will be as competent as the present one. E. A. Ellis Dr. J. O.

THE CLASS HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR How strange it seemed to start out our freshman year with a brand new classl All will admit we were a little shy and timid. Other than a new class we had a new adviser whom some of us had never seen before. However, we soon knew Miss Shelhamer and with her guidance and that of our officers, we flew through our freshman year. The only social activity was a skating party which was a big success, and which showed the school that this class of 1943 would be the best yet. The officers for our freshman year were as follows: President ....... . . . . . Ruth Futey Vice President . . . . . Ruth Gordon Secretary ....... . . . June Waller Treasurer ......... . . . Lillian Morel Social Chairman .... Manuel Thomas SOPHOMORE YEAR Our sophomore year was the time we really began to go places. With the grand ideas and wonderful guidance of our adviser, Miss Shelhamer, we had a very successful year. However, great cooperation was displayed throughout the entire year on the part of the whole class. We had many skating parties, raffles, dances, movies, and many other affairs for making money. The experience encountered in our sophomore year helped to prepare us for the more complicated tasks approaching us in our junior year. The officers of our sophomore year were as follows: President ....... . . . Manuel Thomas Vice President .... Ruth Gordon Secretary ..... Elsie Bain Treasurer ......... .... L illian Morel Social Chairman Dona Harding THE CLASS HISTORY JUNIOR YEAR This was the year for work, and we really did our share. We did just about everything that could be done to make our class a success. We had skating parties, dances, raffles, and home-made candy sales. We sold refreshments at the football games. The class play, Tempest and Sunshine, was successfully given. We also had a minstrel which was very clever. Our greatest task, of course, was the Junior-Senior Prom. We had the Air Liners from Pittsburgh to play for us. The prom was a great success, and thus ended our year with great fun for all. Officers for our junior year were as follows: President ............................. Manuel Thomas Vice President . . . . . Ruth Gordon Secretary ....... . . . June Waller Treasurer ......... . . . Lillian Morel Social Chairman . . . . . . Dona Harding SENIOR YEAR We seniors, realizing this to be our last year together, started oft with a bang. At the beginning of the year we had several skating parties and dances. On December 10 and ll our class play was given. The play chosen for this year was Arsenic and Old Lace. It was under the capable direction of Miss Mary Thomas, a new member of our faculty. In February the juniors and seniors had a social party together in the auditorium. Everyone had a good time, and it was a party we will long remember. The day most of us seniors looked forward to finally came. Of course, this was Class Day. This day was devoted entirely to seniors and every senior took part. The prom was held this year in the Eagles' ballroom as usual. The juniors gave us a very lovely memory, and we thank them for everything. Finally came Baccalaureate and Commence- ment and with them came many wet eyes and sad hearts. We seniors leave now, but we won't forget you, B. H. S. We'll think about the teachers, our advisers, and all the things our school life has taught us. We'll remember our school days as The fondest memories recall, that we have ever known. The officers for our senior year were as follows: President ............................. Manuel Thomas Vice President J. Lee Howell Secretary ..... .. Lois Baumberger Treasurer ......... . . . Gwendolyn Jones Social Chairman .....

CLASS PROPHECY fShades of Shakespeare - 1 - MacBethl In the middle ot a dark cave, a cauldron is boiling, thunder is rumbling, and lightning is flashingl Suddenly above all this is heard the voices of three witches chanting- Double, double, toil and trouble, Fire, burn and cauldron bubble. As the brew thickens, out of the mist come figures somewhat reminiscent of the Class ot 1943. As the rumbling ceases we hear voices uttering- Time- Fate, thou has dealt kindly with the charges I have entrusted to your care back in the spring of 1943. Fate- Yes, I was not unduly harsh. I try to deal kindly with all the youthful groups that come under my supervision and that was a gainful group. Just look at them. Time- Well, there is Bill Amrine in the Blue and Black Room, the one he named after the colors of his alma mater. Over on the band stand sits Willard Gott, the man who plays the sweetest saxophone in the land, and his orchestra, whose outstanding players are Charles Windsheimer, James Stewart, Wayne Hitner, Carl Polivka, John Pintarich, and Karl Owens. Featured vocalists are Jack Young and Lois Baumberger. Hosess of the Blue and Black Room is Gloria Ann Longshaw. Fate- What about that Valley Dale across the street? Time- Well, that's owned and operated by Marjorie Fanlchauser, Maxine Dudley, and Jack Funk. They're giving Bill a good run for his money. They feature that world famous trio, the Stargazers, Jim Duncan, Charles Nuzum, and Bernard McGee. Fate- How about New York? What does it hold for us? Tima- There we see D, A. Bill Snodgrass, assisted by Jack Whitney and Joe Batto- cletti, the wizards of that class. They have a special force composed of William Abel, John Dragovich, Charles Ebert, Georgia Baker, and Virginia Barcalow. Time- Over on Fifth Avenue is the world famous Pink Bazaar, which designs the most lavish clothes in the world tor the junior miss. It is owned by Dorothy Fundis, whose assistant and business manager is J. Lee Howell. The models are Ruth Gordon, Dona Harding, Verna Hanke, Nancy Conway, Violet Carson, June Waller, and Wilda Trouten. Fate- And now to the capital of the United States. Time- There we have many ot the members of the Class of 1943. In the Department of Agriculture we find Leslie Stobbs, James Cook, James Hertler, all great research men. CLASS PRGPHECY Across the way in the Federal Bureau of Investigation is the head of the F. B. I., John Frazier, with James Fuhr, Robert Frees, Anton Godez, Bob Laurent, Robert Cilles, Chester Casagrande, Doris Chervank, Helen Cale, and Catherine Brescel to come to his aid whenever they are neded. In the White House is Lucy Tomei, the right-hand woman of the Secretary to the President of the United States. Secretary of the Navy Charles Dayton and his humble housekeepers are Evelyn Conway and Frances Colvin. Also in Washington, D. C., we have America's greatest street cleaner, Manuel Thomas and his crew, consisting of James Anderson, Joe Anuskewic, William Burnell, Paul Bell, Vince Boido, Bill Brestle, Gene Carter, Elwood Coss, John Aubrey, and Carl Dato, doing a wonderful job of keeping streets clean. Fate- And now to Columbus, Ohio, to the University. Time- Still going to college we find those seven happy-go-lucky girls, Esther Beeson, Mildred Bigelow, Mary Bowers, Angela Fabian, Madelyn Gary, Mary Hartman, and Wilda Henderson. Head coach of Ohio's Buckeye squad is Arthur Wright. His line and backfield assistants are Ronald Trouten, Bob Tracy, and Fred Beckendort. The University is exceptionally good because of the superb faculty. Some of the professors are: Dorothy Johnson, Eugene Jenkins, Louis Jetters, Anthony Janiszewski, Isabel Hohnsee, Eugene Hayda, Sherwood Fuhr, Stanislaus Fornal, Donald Elbert, Helen Zibritosky, Geraldine Williams, Mary Waters, Blanche Thompson, Ann Swantek, Evelyn Stilwell, James Barrett, Martha Bailey, William Miller, and Willard Nelson.

We notice that the voices are getting fainter and as we look up we see them vanishing into the steam of the brew and the three witches are still chanting, Double, double, toil, and trouble, Fire, burn and cauldron bubble. A great flash of lightning streaks and the thunder resumes it's horrid rumbling. Class Song Through all our years at Bridgeport High We've done our best and now we'll try To live up to the standards of the Blue and Forever looking back At mottoes held high. This Senior Class of 43 Will ever more be true to thee, And as we leave our school and friends We want you all to know We're proud to say We're graduates today. Good-bye schoolmates of Bridgeport High We'll think of you and days gone by, And as we wander on the paths we are to Not knowing what's ahead We say with a sigh Those were the times, that were so dear, The joys we shared through every year And now that hour of parting's here, It grieves us much to say Farewell, dear friends, We're leaving you today.

He produced a good team in his first year and consequently had a reputation to live up to this year. The team won ll games and lost 9, and at different times showed spurts of being a championship team. The team will lose five players through graduation, and also will probably lose three more boys to the armed forces. THE BULLDOG 1942 - 43 RECORD Bridgeport Opponents 32 . . . .....
