Pvt. Sherry K. Wood THE CLASS OF 1943 1943_________________THE TOOT_____________1943 Editorial We, in America, have been blessed with one of the greatest privileges that can be had by a nation—that of free education. With it, a nation intelligently governs itself and rises to tremendous heights; without it, a na- tion exposes itself to ignorant tyrants who would sway the masses to a “new order” and institute scoundrels to interpret the “will of the people.” During the present struggle for humanity, America remains almost alone in its normal conduct of the public educational system. To be sure, new fields, arising from a war-mind- ed world, have crept into our schools; but no halt has been called to the actual studies themselves—rather, an increase. In this way we have shown defiance to the totalitarian countries for their methods of education, and have been that much the stronger party in preserving our own democratic ideals in the schools. In this yearbook, we are endeavoring to show by print and plate how the spirit of education still moves boldly on in C. H. S. In our societies, our athletics and our musical groups, we have proved the versatility of our educational system by instituting, with no distraction from our studies, extra cur- ricular activities for the purpose of turning out students with a better character and a more rounded personality. With so much stress being placed on the great contemporary charters of human liber- ty and the four freedoms, it is altogether fit- ting that we, the beneficiaries of such doc- trines, should take time out to acknowledge our rich heritage in the field of American education. We, the Class of 1943, hope to be worthy guardians of this fifth freedom. We look ahead eagerly to the future world, a world which we pray may be rid of ignorance, and raised to undreamed of standards of living thru a better system of understanding among all peoples. —ROBERT GLEASON Board of Education Albert E. Campbell Mrs. May C. Phillips Clifford W. Cramp James A. Grilli Claude B. Ellis Glen F. Bogardus, clerk We, the class of ’43, have finally come to the end of a long path. It has only been thru the farsight and supervision of the Board of Education that we have succeeded in reach- ing our goal. We appreciate the helpful guidance of the members of the Board of Education and we assure them that their efforts shall serve as an inspiration in attaining our goals in the future. —NANCY PANEBIANCO k 6 THE TOOT Mr. glen f. bogardus Superintendent of Schools St. Lawrence University, B.

Class Prophecy It was the funniest thing, but last night I had a dream about the Class of ’43. As I can recall it, it ran thus: Time: 1955. Place: Canastota. The war is over now. Our soldiers have re- turned with but few exceptions, for there aren’t many Gold Stars on our Honor Roll. Canastota has changed considerably during a 12 years’ absence. I decided to take a walk down Chapel St. where Connie Zumbo used to live. Her folks were still there and I was anxious to know what had become of Connie. I was indeed surprised when a very fashion- able young lady answered the door. It was Connie—a new and improved Connie. After a short conversation I learned that she was now dean of a girl’s school near Troy but at present was home on vacation. We therefore decided to have dinner together and talk over old times and mutual acquaint- ances I found that very few of our classmates had remained in Canastota. James Relyea, Floyd Fisher, Ivan Cary, Guy Ponticello, and Charles Peters all managed large farms near the town. Claire Seabrook owned a dress shop and I was surprised to find that many of her most fashionable gowns were designed by Ruth Dygert. Audrey Lahah designed the hats and sports clothes that Claire featured. Barbara Parks was now married (to George) and Nina waited for Eddie to return, and then she married him. Ruth Evans, Ger- trude Seitz, Santa Stagnitti and Sarah De- Mauro also married. I asked Connie about her cousin Mary Wal- do and also one of our closest friends, Nancy Panebianco. I learned that Mary, after an unsuccessful marriage was now a Miami debutante. Nancy, had made quite a success of her life and was now the editor-in-chief of “The New York Herald-Tribune.” Two of her; ablest reporters were Anthony Fantach and 8 THE TOOT Madeline Fratini. Her private secretary was Natalie Logudice. Freddie and Evie are married, but while Freddie is riding around in his Buick intent on being a typical New York playboy, Evie is hard at work as private secretary to Lewis James, New York’s ablest criminal lawyer. Finding that so many of our classmates were in New York, Connie and I decided to take the half hour trip to New York to see if we might contact some of them. We went to Syracuse to catch a plane and there we found that Angelo Malvaso was man- ager of the aii lines while Millie Albanese was his secretary. Josephine Musso and Betty Graham also worked there as secretaries.. We went out to the Airport and there we found Louis Haight and Ernie DiGaspari, the best aviation mechanics in the business. The stewardess greeting passengers at the door looked familiar, and upon closer examin- ation it turned out to be Martha Maxwell, looking very stunning indeed in her uniform. After the plane had taken off, she came back to our seat and talked with us for a few minutes. She told us that Richard Debrucque was piloting our plane and Deno Dolci was the co-pilot. We also learned that Pai. Hatch and Michael DiNunzio had designed the plane and Donald Devine was their crack test pilot. We arrived in New York a few minutes la- ter and decided to check in at a hotel. Imag- ine our surprise when we were greeted by the manager himself, David Hoyt. David had made quite a name for himself—his hotel be- ing the swankiest in New York. It was de- signed by John Smith, who was also quite famous, Shirley Cardner was working with David as his secretary. Later in the day we went for a stroll and . soon we came to a beautiful Baptist Church. The sign outside said Rev. Robert Hamlin, minister. We decided to go in and see if by chance he were there. On entering the door we heard beautiful organ music issuing from inside and upon further investigation it prov- ed to be our own Jean Ray. That same night we saw a radio program featuring the talented Shirley Sorci. On the same program was Virginia Foley, a vocalist. At dinner David told us that his closest friend, Robert Gleason, was now a world- famous chemical engineer. He had his own laboratory and working with him was Har- mon Matteson, a famous dehydrator. Two days later, after having visited most of our old friends, we decided to see Carmie Aquino a renowned lawyer. We took a plane again and this time found that our pilot was Vinny Lomonaco and our hostess, Barbara Loguidice. After some time, feverishly spent hunting Carmie, we found her and persuaded her to have lunch with us. She told us that Cliff and Dot Cramp, two of her closest friends, lived in the same apartment house with her. Cliff was working as an interpreter in the Pentagon. She told us that their oldest son was going to a school in which Jean Barrett and Carmen Tornatore were physical edu- cation instructors. Jane Farnam was the head nurse in the adjoining hospital, and Isabella Relyea was her assistant. Fern Rob- erts worked there as a dietician and Richard Gallagher was the superintendent. We traveled back to New York and just before we left for home we remembered our sailor Bill Mott. After inquiring, we found that he was still serving proudly in Uncle Sam’s Navy. That’s about where I woke up. I wonder if any of it will ever come true9???? —NANCY GREINER The party had reached its peak when Con- nie was asked sing. Miss Moses asked the lady next to her if she had ever heard her sing. The lady said: “No.” Miss M.: “You have something to look backward to.” THE TOOT 9 History of the Senior Class Contrary to the rule, the weather on our first day in that magnificent institution call- ed Canastota High School was delightful. After a few awe-stricken days, we, the class of 1943 decided to have a meeting. With Mrs. Samuel Fudesco as our advisor, we elected: Richard Perretta, President; Michael DiNun- zio, vice president; Marie Lambo, treasurer; and Ruth Evans, secretary On October 29, 1939, we held a Hallowe’en party in the gym. In January 1940, we had a sleigh ride which ended up in a ditch on some country road. The class (somewhat angry) made its way back to the school where the re- maining portion of the evening was spent in playing silly games like “wink-um” and “cof- fee-pot”. Meetings and parties came and went as we freshmen began to make a name for our- selves. We returned in September 1940 as sopho- mores, faced with a new and exciting year a- head of us. This year, to lead us on our merry way, we chose: David Hoyt, President; Frank Mariano, vice president; Mary Waldo, secre- tary and Carmela Aquino, treasurer. As sophomores, the freshman initiation was our pride and joy. At last we had those freshmen where we wanted them, and did not hesitate to spread it on a little heavier to make up for our freshman year (and then some). We entertained at a Christmas dance and also at another party on April 19. The latter was a surprise birthday party in honor of our advisor, Mrs. Fudesco. In April of the same year, our class window was installed and unveiled; and even now, in our Senior year, there comes a sense of de- served pride when we seniors gaze at the crimson and silver window which so proudly is exhibited, along with the other windows, to all the students who will ever enter the portals of C. H. S. Perhaps our most uneventful year was our Junior year. We were now accustomed to high school, and most of our thoughts were on the next year when we would be Seniors (and sit in the study hall). That year we e- kcted: Robert Gleason, President; Richard Perretta, vice-president; Carmela Aquino, secretary and Ruth Evans, treasurer. The act of taking money into the treasury and saving it gave way to our former habit of getting rid of it—fast. The only important social event of the year was the annual Junior Prom. Carmela Aqui- no was elected chairman of the affair. It turned out to be a huge success. September 1, 1943 marked a big day in our lives, for it was then that we entered C. H. S. as Seniors, with only 190 school days be- fore graduation. As our leaders we chose; Michael DiNunzio, President; Carmela Aqui- no, vice-president; Evelyn Fobare, secretary; and Nancy Panebianco, treasurer. We started out with a bang. Robert Glea- son and Nancy Panebianco were chosen as editor and assistant editor, respectively, of the “Toot” Canastota High School’s annual yearbook. Freddie Penna and “Eve” Fobare were chosen co-chairmen of the Senior Ball. Concentrating on class dues was the main work of the officers—of course, not to men- tion that we had any anxiety at all about re- ceiving our little piece of paper on the day of Commencement. The success of Class Night, Baccalaureate and Commencement remains now to be seen. Our active history will have ended, but the spirit of CHS will always remain a most pleasant memory in our minds. —NANCY PANEBIANCO 10 THE TOOT Class Will We, the class of 1943 of Canastota High School, being of sound mind and body (once in a while) have decided that we should part with some of our fond possessions. We be- queath the following: To the Army and Navy—We leave the fel- lows. To the Freshmen of Room 16—The banner (they have it anyway). To Roger Barott—Five traps to be set in C. H. S. for wolves (instead of skunks). To Eugene Simpson—A pass on the New York Central between Canastota and Syracuse. To Mr. McLean—Our deepest gratitude for his patience during third and fifth per- iod study halls. To Peggie’s capable hands—Nancy Panebi- anco leaves her achievements in K. E. To Miss Penna—Chains to fasten the Amer- ican History books to the library shelves. To Some group of bus pupils—We gratefully leave the “cheese-box” and Poke. To Joanne Fusillo—Hospital insurance. To the Faculty—More gum chewers. To Jack Petrie—David Hoyt leaves his danc- ing technique. To The pupils—A secret underground to Wampsville ( in case of another trial). To Jessie Moore—Gertrude Seitz leaves some of her quiet characteristics. To Ruth Barrett—Some of Connie’s carefree ways. To Buster Schmidt—John B., leaves his way with the women. To The Glee Club—Grand times like the ones we’ve had preparing for operettas. To Any class which can qualify—A valedic- torian and salutatorian like ours. To Antone—A girl to calm him down (like Ann Y.) To The Juniors—More driver’s licenses. To History C Students—Someone like Car- mie to crack jokes when a “little test” (also the ball) is just around the corner. To Miss Powers—Fewer 100’s in her Latin classes. To Marjorie Cordell—Jean Ray gladly leaves a few inches of her height. To Katie Buda—Ginny leaves her way of luring unsuspecting males. To Norman Johnson—Bob Gleason leaves his ability in tickling the ivories. To Miss Moses—A place in our hearts as another grand music teacher. To Shirley Tuttle—Nancy Greiner leaves her ability to hear the latest moron jokes. To Larry Waldo—Seven study halls a day, five days a week. To Harold Spencer—Floyd Fisher leaves one (and only one) of his pretty girls who have made his desk one of the most in- teresting in the study hall. To Everyone—Decent school hours (say from 2:30 - 3:30. To Mrs. Fudesco—A box of Aspirin tablets for the headaches that the class of ’43 have given her for the last four years. To The Juniors—We leave our seats in study hall and also our books. We, the undersigned on this twenty-second day of June, in the year one thousand nine hundred and forty-three, duly proclaim this to be our Last Will and Testament. SENIOR CLASS OF ’43 —M. MAXWELL Mary Waldo was driving along a country road when she spied a couple of repairmen climbing telephone poles. “Fools,” she ex- claimed to her companion, “they must think I never drove a car before.” DiGaspari: “Did he call you a blockhead?” Carmen: “No, he said, ‘pull your cap down the woodpeckers are coming’.” THE TOOT 11 Class Alphabet A is for Carmie and Millie Albanese too.

H. S. Because of the slight change in schedule our day begins at 7:57. 7:55—Sees the languorous student rushing into school before the three minute bell and pouring over lessons which somehow just didn’t get done the night before. 8:00—The last few stragglers run in breathless but too late, for Mr. McLean has caught them and invites them to stay to a tea party and some arithmetic after school. 8:03—The first and worst class of the day begins. The worst because we’re not quite awake and everything the teacher says does not seem to register. Sounds of Avoir-ayant eu j’ai-j-eus float out from French III, while from shorthand class we are greeted by a stony silence—Mrs. Milmoe is waiting for Carmie and Evie to arrive. They just get set- tled when Mr. Carman remembers he must empty the basket; so, in he tramps, is greet- ed by icy stares, and quickly makes his exit. 8:10—Carmen Tornatore arrives ready to begin his new day cheerfully and sleepily with his early morning shadow. 8:15—Some one forgot to get a permit, and the teacher wants it, so—down to the office —the line forms at the left. 8:37—First class is over. Seniors crowd the doors to the auditorium, rush to their desks to pick up “Muzzey” or their coveted copy of ’’The Readers Digest.” A last look at the chapter or perhaps the first look at the lesson for today, a quick glance at that last page of the vocabulary and then—we’re off again. If today were Wednesday, we’d take a last look at our “Observer.” 8:40—Waiting for class to begin, Nancy and Marty talk over things they forgot on the telephone last night. Mary and Ginny discuss some choice bits of gossip while Car- mie tries frantically to read the history she missed. Freddie pokes Eve, and Ernie and John have conference in the back of the room. 8:41—Miss Mackey appears and silence reigns, except for Greiner, Nina and Bogar- dus arguing over the front seat. 8:45—Sorci and Zumbo vs Panebianco on car favorite subject: What is England doing for us? Miss Mackey intervenes and there is another good argument down the drain. 8:50—English IV is taking dictation; arms get numb; and then the discussion of Ray’- shun or Rash’un comes up, which is it? But who cares? People say it their own way. 9:20—Secretarial Practice is the uproar you hear. Mrs. Milmoe has so many nuisances that she has not as yet found any one person to post as the “worst nuisance around an of- fice.” In study hall, Mac is taking attendance and Nancy and Carmen have their early morning chat. David is looking for the French dictionary and Ginny parades in and out of the room to her locker. Nance Greiner and Martha sit with their heads together over a chemistry book, while Jean listens to their intelligent conversation. Soupy Hamlin haunts Barb Park’s desk, but is intercepted by Miss Penna (he goes back to his own seat where he annoys Paul.) 9:30—Bogardus and Bruno straggle into study hall from an extended conversation with Miss Myers. I wonder why so many boys are taking Mechanical this year? 9:40—Miss Penna marches up and down with her little list of culprits who have de- layed taking back overdue books. 9:57—The bell at last 3 minutes to find out what’s on tomorrow’s assignment. 10:00—Finds half of us in English and the other half in History C. Cardner tries earnestly to answer Miss Mackey’s question, but the class is already filled with anticipat- ion of no answer and bursts into laughter. In English, Shirley coughs and has to leave for a drink; Ernie pulls Connie’s hair and Fred- die keeps those in the rear laughing with glee, (continued on page 25 THE TOOT 15 Popularity Contest BOYS GIRLS Most Popular Best Looking ....

IN APPRECIATION We wish to thank Mrs. Fudesco sincerely for her untiring efforts in aiding us during our High School career. We appre- ciate it, for without her we would have been left to wander aimlessly about, oblivious to the good times we could have had. Thanks to her wise counsel, we have spent a very enjoy- able four years in C. H. S. We should also like to thank Miss Myers who has been of service to us during her short stay here.

(continued from page 14) 10:40—Commercial Law is the main at- traction this period Shouts of laughter fill the auditorium as Mr. Hedglon tries in vain to talk above the noise, and when he finally can be heard his trend of conversation runs to Mr. Shanahan or his father. 10:50—Today is a typical gym day. First, the girls have marching drill and then a few exercises to remove a few extra pounds. If it’s nice out, hockey or softball are in order; or if it’s a day for indoor sports, basketball, volley ball, kick ball, ping pong, shuffle board and tumbling hit the spot. Outside, Mr. Schmidt is trying to make commandos out of Freshmen, Sophs and Jun- iors. He won’t try the Seniors, because there’s no hope for them. 11:20—Lunch time, a mad scramble for the stairs and a snatch for the last bottle of milk or orange or those delicious chocolate filled cookies. Dancing sometimes with the Varsity C juke box. Just a little recreation and we need it. Then, too soon, the bell rings. 11:40—Lunch over, everyone is drowsy and farm workers file down to Mac’s office for a pass to go home. Mr. Waldo tears his hair in study hall as Devine bothers every- one for miles around.

We are anticipating entertaining the Sen- ior Class as our final social event before we cnLer our own Senior year. —MARY KAY YORK George: “My love, your cheeks are like peaches, your lips like cherries—” Barb: “Stop, you already used up 48 points.” Soupy: “Where’ve you been?” Louie: “In a phone booth talking to my girl, but someone wanted to use the phone, so we had to get out.” Definition: A night club is a place where the tables are reserved and the guests aren’t. Early in September according to custom, we began the year by electing officers as fol- lows : President, Asa Smith; vice president, Sylvia Miller; Secretary, Mary Kay York; Treasurer, Josephine Lanzafami. Our first social event of the year was a Hallowe’en party held on October 30, which proved to be a success both financially and socially. There were many original costumes and prizes were given for several of the best. Early in November we decided on our class rings which finally arrived in March. We chose a distinctive gold ring with black onyx stone. In March we began to make plans for our Junior Prom which was held on April 26. Music was provided by Chic Webb, and the decorations followed a patriotic theme. The Junior class has co-operated very well THE TOOT 29 Sophomore Class With an abundance of pep and energy, the Class of ’45 reentered C. H. S. last fall and ea- gerly looked over the incoming Freshmen. At our first meeting of the year we elect- ed Patricia Milmoe, President; William Park- er, Vice President; Helen Bonaventura, Sec- retary; and Norman Johnson, Treasurer. Then it was our duty (and good luck) to initiate the “Frosh.” At our second meeting we designated the tortures, and fun reigned for a week. Our next undertaking was an assembly program. It brought vaudeville back with solos, ballet and bottles (remember?) A lit- tle later we managed a highly successful sport dance which enriched our treasury by $13. In March, the “Sophs” gave a class party, each inviting one person, a plan that worked very well. We’d like to thank our advisors, Miss Dan- iels and Mrs. Smith, for guiding us through another year with very able help. —HELEN BONAVENTURA Caller: “Boy, I would like to see someone with a little authority.” David: “What can I do for you? I have a- bout as little as anyone.” Miss Mackey: “Name the ten greatest men in the world.” Freddie: “The New York Yankees and The Lone Ranger.” Ginny to Carmie: “I have an uncomfort- able feeling we’re not being followed.” THE TOOT 30 Freshman Class President .................Richard Clark Vice President............Harvey Stocker Secretary ................Charlotte Parks Treasurer ................Margaret Fisher Motto—Amor patriae est nostra lex. (Love of Country is Our Law). Colors—Navy blue and white. Flower—Daffodil The Freshman Class began its social ac- tivities in High school by taking part in the annual Hallowe’en Party. We showed movies sold ice cream, and told fortunes to earn some money to help pay expenses for the coming year. Later in the year, we held two dances for everyone in the school and had one party for ourselves. We plan to purchase our window before the year is over, and put it up with the others. —CHARLOTTE PARKS Gleason was being examined for admission to MIT. He seemed all right in every way but one. The doctor said: “You’re a little stiff.” Quickly his blood mounted as he said,“ You’re a big stiff.” Hedg: “Just because a man has money doesn’t mean he’s a success.” Nina: “I’ll marry any failure who’s got a million dollars.” Miss Clines: “Dick how many times have I told you to get to this class on time?” Dick: “I don’t know. I thought you were keeping score.” THE TOOT 31 This year, we Thespians had our usual election of officers. They are as follows: Robert Gleason, President; Shirley Sorci, Vice President; Carmela Aquino, Treasurer; Shirley Cardner, Secretary. Due to the lack of a permanent dramatic director, we were unable to present prize speaking and a three-act play. However, we gave a number of assembly programs, the foremost of which was the “Gay Nineties Revue.” Under the leadership of our temporary ad- visor, Miss Penna, we were able to initiate twelve new members on May 20. An initiation party was held in the school gymnasium. Because of the late initiation, the new members were unable to have their pictures taken with the other members of the Thes- pian Society. The new members are: Con- cepta Zumbo, Mary Waldo, Fred Penna, Mary Lou Farr, Frances Aquino, Betty Schmidt, Josephine Farfaglia, Josephine Lanzafami, Asa Smith, Harold Spencer and Thomas Mc- Nally. —SHIRLEV CARDNER Bill Mott: “John Beach is going to get a medal. He saved the lives of the company.” Floyd: “How come?” Bill: “He shot our cook.” Miss Daniels: “What did Benjamin Frank- lin do when he discovered electricity ?” Greiner: “Nothing, he was too shocked.” “Of course I wouldn’t say anything about her unless I could say something good. And, oh boy, is this good—”. 32 THE TOOT Football Canastota 7 .......................Oneida 6 Canastota 19 ......................Oneida 0 By winning five games, and losing a sixth by only one point, the Canastota gridmen of 1942 established themselves second only to a powerful Whitesboro team in league stand- ing. This feat, coupled with a double victory over our traditional Oneida rivals, made this season outstanding in recent C. H. S. football history. The Schmidtmen got off to a shaky start in a pre-season game at Oneida, beating Coach Fred 0. Duncan’s team 7-6. In the first Lea- gue game, the Canastota eleven unleashed an unlooked for amount of power to crush Clin- ton 26-0. The week following, however, Can- astota rooters were disappointed when the Maroon and White bowed to a heavy Whites- boro team, 13-12, after a thrilling battle on a rain-soaked field. The game was highlight- ed by half-back Blanchard’s ninety-five yard runback of the second half kickoff, going all the way for six points. After this game, the C. H. S. team had little trouble defeating a rough Cazenovia eleven 25-0, followed it up with a hard fought 12-6 win over New Hart- ford and finished the season with a spectacu- lar defeat of Oneida 19-0, before a huge crowd of Canastota rooters at the Roberts Street Field. The football men attributed much of their success this year to Coach Schmidt’s new single-wing back plays which were made to order for the fast, hard-hitting backs, Ro- magnoli, Blanchard, Tornatore and Eddie and Ernie Cretaro. The veteran ends, Hamlin and Mariano formed powerful wings for the light but hard-blocking line, Marchetti, Cramp, Nastasi, DiGaspari, Sgroi and Albanese. (continued on page 35) THE TOOT Despite the war, gas rationing, etc., Can- astota High School Basketeers did manage to get a seven-game schedule played. The Schmidtmen played two games against Sher- rill, two against Cazenovia and three with C. H. S’s. traditional foe, Oneida. Not a too successful season was enjoyed by the team; but the Basketeers showed flashes of brilliance and excellent play in their victories over Oneida and Cazenovia, and even in defeat they played good basket- ball. The team this year was built around the veterans, Dewey Romagnoli at left guard and Robert Hamlin at center, Louis Haight, a newcomer to Canastota High School, was at left forward with Joe Ezzo at right forward and Vincent Albanese at right guard. Others to see action were Michael Torna- tore, Charles Bowman, William Mott, Ernie DiGaspari, Gerald Calli, John Bogardus, Car- men Tornatore and Donald Devine.

The soloists were: Miss Moses, violin; Patricia Milmoe, flute; Betty McLean, baritone and Jessie Moore, vocal. The main theme of the annual Spring Concert was “The Gondoliers,” by Gilbert and Sullivan. The Senior chorus and soloist; Barton Morecroft, Asa Smith, Jessie Moore, Nancy Greiner, Concepta Zumbo, Betty Davis, Robert Gleason, Clifford Cramp, and Thomas McNally gave excerpts from the operetta. A clarinet quartet and Junior chorus also had their places in the evening’s entertain- ment. In bringing the year to a close, we are giving a performance at Commencement of Brahm’s “How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place” from his German Requiem. —JEAN BARRETT Mr. Sorci: “Why are you taking that whis- tle with you tonight?” Shirley: “I have a date with a football player.” THE TOOT 35 Band As it was almost impossible to obtain transportation this year, we did not have much chance to actually compete with other bands. So our new leader Miss Florence Mos- es, found the opportunities for exhibiting her skills very few. However, during football season, we went to Oneida for the opening game. Even at that early stage we showed up very well in com- parison with their band. Our spring concert was one of the best we have put on in years, and netted us no profit. The only admission was the purchase of a war stamp at the door. A large crowd attend- ed, and so helped the bond and stamp drive immensely. We plan to play for commencement, and, as this will be the last time Miss Moses will conduct us, we hope our performance will be a credit to her patience and understanding. —DOROTHY PRESTON Have you heard about the little moron who had a chair put next to his bed for rigor mor- tis to set in? FOOTBALL (continued from page 32) At the annual Civic Club banquet, the team elected the pile-driver left guard, Ernie DiGaspari, as captain and Coach Schmidt made a fit choice for the most improved play- er award, selecting Bob Hamlin, hard-hitting left end a choice which was enthusiastically applauded by the team. —CLIFFORD CRAMP THE TOOT 36 K. E. Society We started off the new year in September by initiating new members. Solemn initiation was held at the home of Nina Tornabene, followed by an informal party in the high school gym. We were well represented at convention by Nancy Panebianco, Mary Waldo, Nina Tor- nabene, Virginia Foley and Ruth Waldo. In December we held our Annual Ball with Carmela Aquino and Concepta Zumbo as Co- Chairmen. The music was furnished by the “Stardusters.” In January we elected the following offi- cers : President.................Peg Cunningham Vice President ...........Margaret Sgroi Recording Secretary .........Jo Lanzafami Corresponding Secretary . . Dorothy Preston Treasurer .....................Ruth Waldo Chaplain................Santina Patane One of our greatest achievements of the year was our generous contribution of $25 to the Red Cross. —JOSEPHINE LANZAFAMI Jo: “Can I borrow a dollar for a week, old man?” Rose: “Who is he?” BASKETBALL (continued from page 33) of the schedule. The Championship Team consisted of John Beach and William Mott both of whom are in the Navy, Louis Haight, William Caldwell, John Mengucci, Garnet Haynes and Donald Devine. —DONALD DEVINE THE TOOT 37 Girls’ Sports Because of the war situation and the lack of transportation to outside villages, the girls’ athletic program was entirely an intra- mural program.

(continued from page 25) Mrs. Fudesco’s Italian class is trying to learn irregular verbs and sequence of tense but to no avail. Some one in uniform is seen floating by the door and necks crane out the open door to see who it is. Forgotten hand- kerchiefs, pens, pencils, notebooks or long needed drinks are quickly remembered and hands fly up like P-38’s. 12:20—Just exactly 38 minutes to go and no more school until tomorrow. What a pity we have to wait so long before we can go home. girls participating in the intramural pro- gram. There are 2 leagues, 8th grade and Freshmen meeting on Tuesday.

Work has begun on the tennis courts and it is hoped that tennis will take its place in .c girls’ physical education program. —SHIRLEY CARDNER Miss Mackey patrols a restless study hall hile Seniors wander aimlessly about unatio to concentrate. 12:58—That last bell which calls us to the roll-call in C. H. S. pierces the heart of all of us, for from today on, we’re on our own —without Mac, Miss Clines, Miss Powers, Miss Daniels, Mrs. Fudesco and all the rest of the wonderful faculty of C. H. S., who have pushed on to help us achieve the heights of our ambition. To them and ail the remaining classes, we close the door on our typical day in C. H.
