ALMA MATER JOY - F JL - LY PRAISE THEE, 0 CON - NE - AUT HIGH. 3 DEDICATION MR. JOHN YESSO The senior class dedicates this yearbook to you. Mr. Yesso, in recognition and appreciation of these characteristics: GUIDANCE KINDNESS FRIENDLINESS HELPFULNESS PATIENCE SENSE OF HUMOR SINCERITY 4 We Pause to Pay Tribute to an Outstanding Conneaut Citizen It was always a pleasure to be in the presence of Mr. Zack, for on his face was a continual smile, and from his lips invariably poured forth an amusing anecdote. His life was molded into the fine form of sound character, tempered with pride in his family and community, and polished with a joy for living. He set an excellent example of good living. Because of his keen interest in school activities, he will long be remembered by the students. 5 BOARD OF EDUCATION STANDING: Mr. Millard, Dr. Ocshier, Mr. Coxon, Mr. Kennedy. SEATED: Mr. Buss, Supt. Codding, Mr. Wright. ADMINISTRATION Left to Right: Mrs. Halliday, Mr. Millard, Miss Walters, Miss Hall 6 MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF '51: Superintendent D. W. Codding As the time draws near when the members of your class must each pursue his separate way, it is my great privilege to extend to each of you, best wishes. The sheltering arms of parents, teachers, and other friends will continue to protect and guide the youth who follow you. The future is yours to debase or glorify. May the God. whose creatures we are, give you hills to climb and strength to attain the heights! High ideals, the essence of noble character, offers the only sure hopes for peace and security. A nation is no stronger than the character of its people. Low moral standards, resulting in degredation of character, are the chief cause of our present plight. Selfishness, greed, and ignorance constitute the greatest threat to our existence as a nation. If the members of the class of 1951—and all the rest of us—are to be worthy of the rich heritage we enjoy, we will strive with all diligence, to strengthen the moral fiber of our lives, to follow the highest ideals, and to support every agency ar.d undertaking designed to build character and elevate life to a higher level.

Ah, yes, there were many In outstanding array; Each past vict’ry a lesson That will help us today. The knowledge we’ve gained, Each friend that we’ve won, Will all serve their purpose New our twelve years are done. Each school-day’s a signpost Along Life’s busy road. Did we put them to use To help carry each load? Let’s look towards tomorrow With a song and a prayer. That in us may be found Good citizenship there. —Martha Russell 26 CLASS HISTORY The curtain is slowly descending on the drama of the Class of 1951. During our three years at Conneaut Senior High, we have had moments of glee and a few of sorrow. Let us recall a few of these memories. The house lights dim. The curtain rises; and we see ourselves as lowly “cookies.” During this first act our leading characters are: James Kent, president; John Harris, vice-president; Eleanor Medeiros, secretary; and Helen Pease, treasurer—except for initiation, we spend a quiet year adapting ourselves to this new and bewildering way of life. After a short intermission, we remue our places on the stage. This time we have as leaders: Charles Kille, president; Gary Joslin, vice-president; Joan Walsh, secretary; and Eleanor Lasko, treasurer. This act runs smoothly; then suddenly, an explosion! The smoke clears, and we see the cause of it all: the chemistry class working on a new experiment. We view again our numerous experiences and episodes of importance: the field trips we enjoyed with Mr. Yesso—nine juniors singled out forr special honors when they are initiated into the National Honor Society—Susan Zack’s brilliant imitation of Ted Lewis in the Spanish Club assembly—the several Teen Town dances and super-salesmanship sponsored to finance our most important event of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom—the Legion ballroom, the scene of the Prom, colorfully decorated in the Mardi Gras” theme; we dance under the huge spider-web canopy; during intermission, the dance team, “Bill and Joan,” entertain us with a few numbers. Following the summer-time intermission, we see ourselves as Seniors. Gary Joslin, president; Russell Merlene, vice-president; Barbara Taylor, secretary: and Susan Zack, treasurer; these lead us through the finale—the Senior-Sophomore Party comes to the stage complete with judge, jury, and electric chair—the next event is the traditional Chestnut Hunt at Girard’s Community Park: someone discovers a rare chestnut; the usual football game and good food make the day a success—our precise marching band entertains us during half-time at the exciting football games—Joan Walsh is crowned is crowned queen by co-captains John Harris and James Kent and Gary Joslin win second string honors on the Lake Shore League All-Opponent team in the last year of the league’s existence— Maurice Palo is awarded the fourth annual Ojajarvi trophy at the Football Banquet —“Daisy Mae and LiPl Abner” were crowned at the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance sponsored by the Spanish Club—we all enjoy our winter sports when school closes because of the snow—surprisingly, students brave the wintry blast to attend the Teen Town dances although they can’t make their way to school—Rowe seniors join us to struggle through the rather difficult Scholarship Test—the Senior Girls’ Banquet an evening instituted solely for females, is carried out in the “Mother Goose” theme—the Spanish class sponsors a masquerade ball—the last act passes quickly in the flury of committee meetings, basket ball games, the Senior Tea, various assemblies, Honor Society initiation, Teen Town dances, choir and band concerts and contests, preparations for the “Rhythms of ’51”, the physics trip to Nela Park, numerous track meets and other events—this year, for the first time, noon movies are enjoyed by all—the seniors exhibit their dramatic talents in “Seventeenth Summer’’, the senior play—at the Junior-Senior Prom, everyone is gay—then our last three events: Class Day in which speakers Martha Russell, Joan Lemponen, John Harris, and Charles Kille participate; Baccalaureate and Commencement which bring us to the end of a glorious year. The curtain descends. The house lights come on. The drama ends as we file down from the stage. We leave “the portals of Minerva’s hallowed home” for whatever destiny holds in store for us. Our memories and friendships will ever be near and dear to us. 27 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY It used to be a known fact, back in the days of ’51, that I, CHARLES KILLE, was ambitious to the extent of someday having in my possession a cool million. After toiling for ten years in the ice business, I finally attained my goal. Eecaus-e I had always aspired to travel, I decided to take a trip to Europe. After purchasing a ticket from the ticket agent, CHARLES FINDLEY, I boarded the train and settled down for a nice long ride to New York City. Imagine my surprise when I recognized the conductor as none other than NEAL HOSKINS. After a pleasant chat, Neal informed me that the engineer was also his one-time cohort and partner, “Squeel ’em on the curves” JIM KENT. Jim, it seems, is back on his old run, after having his operator’s license revoked for ninety days. In the dining car I was also startled to find VIOLA STEVENSON, IRENE BOWERS, JOANNE CANTLIN, and BEVERLY RAPPOLD waiting on tables. The girls said that they just could not get out of the rut. While eating, I was very much surprised by the headlines of a newspaper: STONE AND CREW TO LEAVE FOR THE MOON! Evidently LARRY STONE, SUSAN ZACK, AMY SIMONE, JOAN RAISTRICK, and GLORIA HECKENDORN are off on another expedition to the lunar territory. (These are the people who had possessed such flighty ideas.) Stepping from Grand Central Station to the sidewalks of New York, I was amazed at the height of the newest buildings. I understand some of these had been built by those famous contractors WILLIAM RILEY, BILL JOHNSON, and EDWARD PAZDIORKO. Their latest job has been the erection of monkey houses for the Bronx Zoo. While crossing the street, I narrowly missed getting struck down by a taxi driven by GEORGE LEGEZA. After a brief exchange of words, George was off again with a clash of gears. That evening the twinkling lights of the theater marquees attracted attention. One starred MARY ANN LIVINGSTON and EDWARD GRISWOLD in a theme entitled, “I WANT TO DANCE.” The current matinee idol seemed to be ‘‘Irresistable” JOHN HARRIS. People told me that bobby-soxers have lined up for miles just to get a breath of his after-shave cologne. (I don’t know—I wear the same stuff, and not even the wife gives me a sigh.) Ac I passed Carnegie Hall, the sound of music reached by ears. Looking at the posters, I learned that ROBERT SHIRKMAN and his symphony orchestra were appearing there that evening. I ventured in and found the maestro rehearsing with his rhythm section, which included JANET KITINOJA, BARBARA TAYLOR, MARY ANN MALLORY, and RACHEL BYRON. The girls have truly become accomplished musicians. Next, I decided to sail for England. After having purchased my ticket on the Queen Mary, I read the passenger list of my ship. I saw that a few Conneaut residents, now celebrated personages, were aboard. You will remember ‘BUBBLES’ HELEN PEASE, the well known Broadway dancer, and MARTHA RUSSELL, song lyricist, who has just finished her latest song entitled, ‘‘We’ll Build a Cabin in the Sky’, or, “It’s a Long Way to the Washroom.” Also on the ship were the famous lion tamer for Ringling Brother’s Circus, CLAUDIA KANGAS, and gentlemen farmers, GAROLD BRADEN and SIDNEY LAMONT. The boys wrote a book entitled ‘‘Monroe Farm Techniques” that enlightens its readers on varied rural subjects from modern cattle-care to the latest square-dance steps. As I read further down the list, the crew seemed to strike a familiar note, too. MAURICE PALO was serving as the captain; LLOYD MILHOLLAN, first mate; RONALD BRUNDAGE, purser; and RICHARD NIELSON the official fog horn blower. “Skip” became a famous captain only since she had run his ship into the rock of Gibraltor, several months ago. 23 The voyage was five days in the making and was most pleasant. I attributed most of this to our Conneaut crrewmen. On the morning before our arrival in Liverpool, I received a radiogram stating that Dr. KENNETH LUNDGREN, mathematics professor at Cambridge, was planning to meet me at the docks. After a spot of tea, “Shine” related the whereabouts of some of our friends. JIM PALAGYI had iust completed swimming the English Channel and had returned to America to receive honors. With their trained animal act, GARY JOSLIN and ELEANOR LASKO were giving command performances before the Royal Family. MAUREEN MANEY and JOAN WALSH and Mo, in distance running. were to appear in the forthcoming Olympics! Joan will perform with the shot-put, From England, I journeyed to Paris to see displays of art by CYNTHIA ROBINSON and DICK INGRAM. They had been studying techniques of old masters and teaching a few of their own. Their teacher was the famed PAULINE ROSS. The city appeared to be in a dither because of the crime wave brought about by “Nasty” JIM REDDY and his gang. Among them were CLYDE VIGNAL, trigger-man; ANTHONY VENDETTI, a body guard; and GENE MALECHAR, driver of their high-powered automobile. You can rest assured though, Detective RONALD WHITNEY was hot on their trail and brought them to justice within one week. Next on my list was Germany, the home of the LOUDEN FINE CANDIES. I sampled the confections from the firm owned and operated by MARY and GLORIANN LOUDEN and rated them as the finest. I then journeyed to Spain. Here I found NANETTE CARLE operating a school for lady bull-fighters. Enrolled were JUANITA CHURCH, MARILYN COLE, ROSEMARY DEITER, BARBARA GRUBER, and KATHLEEN CONNORS. As one cf the extra-curricular activities, the girls held a beauty contest. The winner, KATHLEEN, was proclaimed “Miss Bull-fighter of 1961.” The judge was ROBERT “FAKER” BAKER. I learned through him that when last heard from. NANCY CUSTAFERRO, SHIRLEY ANTHONY, GLORIA BIHLAJAMA, and PHYLLIS GALLIAZZO were in China. They had purchased an old city bus for the purpose to taking a trip around the world and had run out of gas on the Burma Road. My sojourn through Europe was cut short at this time by an emergency return home. On my way home, I received news that gold had been struck in the Yukon by PAT LONG, DOLORES MARCH, MARGARET PETRO, and CYNTHIA DAVIS. (Imagine these girls as gold-diggers!) The girls have been planning a summer resort for Eskimo’s on vacation, so I’m told. It was certainly good to be home again and visit by favorite restaurant operated by MARY LOU WHIPPLE and MARY REO. Occasionally I frequent the Eagle’s Nest for a soft drink, served by its still charming owner JANET COUSINS. Oftentimes, JUDY ROBBINS brings her brood of thirteen in for sodas and candy. JOAN LEMPONEN and WILMA COLE have started a law firm in town. Their first client, MARCIA STINE, has been sueing her fifth husband for non-support. SANDRA LUCAS. ELEANOR MEDEIROS, ROSE MARIE MONDA, and NANCY HAKOLA have been pursuing careers in the business world. All had previously graduated from MARY LOU AMIDON’S SECRETARIAL SCHOOL. CAROL NATTO and ELSIE PENKO have been playing such excellent soft-ball in the city soft-ball league, that they intend to turn professional next season. The “QUICKEE LOAN COMPANY” has been operating under the management of the “Smiling Three”: RUSSELL MERLENE. JOE PROLONG, and DAY-TON DUNBAR. This, my friends, concludes my prophetic writings. My only desire is that you find the greatest success and happiness possible in life, and that your dreams, not mine for you, come true.

BACCALAUREATE Donning our caps and gowns for the first time, we reverently entered the auditorium for our baccalaureate. Reverend Richard Kline delivered the sermon. He told us that life was made up of “expendables and essentials.” He spoke of “the possession of things; the storing up of knowledge; and the perpetual merry-go-round of play” as “small potatoes which our world has looked at with a magnifying glass until they appear huge and highly important.” The essentials in our life are faith, hope, and love. The greatest of all is love, for God is Love. He reminded us of this advice from the Bible: “Remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth.” That too is essential. The benediction was pronounced; the recessional began. Pondering over the wise counsel we had received, we solemnly departed from this memorable baccalaureate service. 37 CLASS DAY The Seniors gather together for their last assembly program of the year— Class Day. The scripture and the pledge to the flag were given by Janet Kitinoja. The highlights of the program included: Class history, Joan Lemponen; Class poem, Martha Russell; Class will, John Harris; Class prophecy, Charles Kille. The singing of our class songs closed the program. Following the program the members of the senior class left via bus for Cleveland’s Euclid Beach Park, accompanied by John Yesso and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Graham. The thrills and chills of the Thriller, the Flying Turns, the rides (?) in the dark, and many other amusements helped to make our day complete. When the buses were ready to come home everyone admitted he had had a good time. 38 f 3 O msM ihfcl; i . •ill ROW 1: P Ross, Valedictorian. ROW 2: S. Anthony, M. Livingston, N. Gustaferro, S.

The Legion Hall on the gala prom night was a replica of Holland itself. The elaborate decorations included: a wishing well, hundreds of tulips, streamers and balloons, and a windmill that actually pumped water. Joan Raistrick was crowned Queen Wilhel-mina and Ronald Whitney, King Wilhem. The senior court consisted of Helen Pease, Mary Ann Livingston, James Kent and Larry Stone. The junior court was made up of Barbara Fullerton. Nancy Braun, Martha McNulty, Donald Smith, John Walter and Richard Clark. Joe Montenaro’s orchestra set the melodic background for the grand march. During the intermission, the Matrimonial Four Barbership Quartet sang and the Dutch clad duo of Kathleen Kilfoil and Roberta Koons tap danced. The dance floor was a whirl of pastel for-mals and white dinner jackets. The stimulated appetites were satisfied with punch, sandwiches and cakes. A good time was had by all. 42 43 ROW 1: M.

The National Honor Society is a distinguished organization throughout the country. It is indeed an honor to become a member of this society. The twelve students initiated into the organization this year were: Judy Risley, Barbara Starks. Nancy Britton, Barbara Fullerton, Martha McNulty, Barbara Olson, Joyce Palagyi. Agnes Skippon, Hanna Duesenbury, Doris Magill, Beverly Humalainen, and Anthony O’Neil. On the memorable day of April 27. the “spirt” of the honor society at an immpressive assembly program. She breathed into their souls the pureness of her possession of the good, the noble, and the true. The flame of her symbolic torch will light the altars cf youth with the pure fires of idealism. The followers of her torch, by vissions of her noble aims inspiied, shall ever strive to reach the four sublime and lofty goals to which she leads: scholarship, character, leadership, and service. Those conducting the ceremony were: Helen Pease, Janet Kitinoja. Rachel Byron, Eleanor Medieros. Claudia Kangas, Joan Lemponen, Pauline Ross, and Barbara Gruber. Twenty students represent the principles upon which schools are founded, the mighty ends toward which education strives. 59 DRAMATICALLY SPEAKING! Almost daily for five weeks an enchanted “Seventeenth Summer” was enacted by thirteen thespians of Conneaut High School’s senior class. These rehearsals were under the able direction of Mrs. Richard Graham. On the evenings of May 10 and 11, the curtain went up; the house-lights dimmed; and a hush fell over the audience. The trials and tribulations of the seventeenth summer of Angie Morrow began. This young woman, who made some discoveries about life and men, was cleverly portrayed by Rachel Byron. The man in her life was played by Robert Baker. Her engaged sister, characterized by Helen Pease, worried not about the man in her life, but about the life in her man, unpredictable Robert Shirkman. Another sister, Susan Zack, destined to be an old maid, worried about the men that were not in her life. Totally unconcerned about any member of the opposite sex was the impish, little sister, Mary Ann Livingston. The lovable, but stern parents were gracefully portrayed by Claudia Kangas and Larry Stone. Donald Dunbar was sister Susan’s “university graduate.” Gloria Heckendorn, the town menace, was the ring-leader of activities performed by Mary Reo, Jim Kent, and John Harris. Sandra Lucas was prompter and John Harris was the ever-faithful stage manager. 60 SEVENTEENTH 1 ; THE PLAYERS Rachel Byron Helen Pease Susan Zack Mary Ann Livingston Claudia Kangas Larry Stone Robert Baker Robert Shirkman Donald Dunbar Gloria Heckendorn James Kent Mary Reo John Harris THE PROMPTER Sandra Lucas THE STAGE MANAGER John Harris THE DIRECTOR Mrs. Richard L. Graham 61 SUMMER WHAT'S SO FUNNY? THE SOPHOMORES, OF COURSE! The Sophomores were officially welcomed into C. H. S. by the senior class on October 13. Eefore school started, the “cookies” were met at the door by the seniors who made certain no one missed being made-up or came to school with the wrong outfit. Classes were slightly disrupted as the cookies were called upon to carry the seniors’ books, bow, and occasionally render a song. In the evening the “cookies” were convicted of stealing the name of “sophomore” from C. H. S., by a jury of seniors. The cookies then had to pay the consequences for their crimes. Refreshments of sweet cider and doughnuts were served to the bedraggled sophomores and glowing seniors, thus ending an evening of fun and laughter. 62 SENIOR CHESTNUT HUNT SEATED—J. Rais trick, P. Ross. G. Braden. C. Robinson, G. Bilhajama. M. A. Livingston. STANDING—R. Whitney, G. Legesa. M Palo, J. Kent. J. Palagvi, G. Josltn, R. Nielsen. When the long-awaited October 5 arrived, the seniors bounded out of the doors cf C. H. S. at 10 A. M., on their way to Girard Park, for a day of fun. They had heard about this outing called the “Senior Chestnut Hunt ’ for years and decided to see what it was like. Improvised games of football and baseball were enjoyed before a hearty lunch was served. Not to be forgotten, one chestnut was found which definitely made the endeavor a success. 63 EL CLUB ESPANOL A spirited initiation launched this ship of Spanish “pirates.” When the captain of the ship and Spanish teacher, Mr. Kenneth Aurand, was ordered to leave the sunny shores of Lake Erie to aid the Korean cause, the crew carried on despite the loss of its Spanish course. It was smooth sailing when the club sponsored a Sadie Hawkin’s Day dance and a masquerade ball. Among their many accomplishments was their contribution to the polio drive. President of the organization was Susan Zack, assisted by Claudia Kan-gas, vice president. Joan Walsh was secretary and Helen Pease was treasurer. The members were: Judy Risley, Diana Horton, Barbara Fullerton, Barbara Olson, Joyce Palagyi, Hanna Dus-enbury, Nancy Braun, Wilfred Colling-wood, David Hankins, and Frank Zap-pitelli. 64 CLASS FINANCIERS ROW 1: R.

The goal of the finance committee had been to obtain a sufficient amount of cash to finance a class trip to a desirable destination on Class Day and to make a contribution for the purchase of a score board for the new gymnasium. Activities sponsored to obtain funds included a hay ride, several dances, a bake sale, a paper drive, the sale of Christmas cards and pen and pencil sets, and the production of “Rhythms of ’SI.” LEADERS OF LIRRARY LORE J.

The now very grown-up sophomores served their mothers punch and cookies, then entertained them with musical numbers and a play called, “Once a Sailor, Always a Sailor.” Margaret Petro serves punch to Mrs. Kitinoja and a “Cookie.” Can these two sailor lads be Joseph Runner and Joseph Kehoe? I see they are in trouble, too. SENIOR GIRLS RANQUET On February 19, 1951, the feminine population of Senior High assembled at the Methodist Church for an enjoyable evening—minus the boys. The girls were served a fine dinner by the senior girls’ mothers. Toast-mistress, E. Medieros, introduced the speakers: M. Doyle, A. Skippon. and M Russell. The formal part of the evening being over, the girls were entertained further by a comedy play called, “Have You Had Your Operation?” and musical numbers by the senior girls. 67 SENIOR MOTHER'S RECEPTION Entering school, the afternoon of the Senior Tea, the entire Senior Class looked different somehow, perhaps it was the girls’ high heels and the boys’ best suits. With their mothers at their sides, the Class of 1951 enjoyed a varied program consisting of toasts, musical numbers and a comical monologue. Following the program. refreshments were served. 63 M A J 0 R E T T E R E V I E W STANDING Judy Robbins, Nancy Braun, Maureen Maney, Sally Heckendorn, Martha McNulty. SEATED: Rachel Byron.

HOMECOMING On the cool, autumn night of November 10, Miss Joan Walsh was the center of attention under the bright lights of Conneaut Stadium, after having been elected homecoming queen by the football team.
