Croswell Lexington High School - Pioneer Yearbook (Croswell, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 60 of the 1951 volume:

Dedication We, the Senior Class of '51', wish to dedicate our annual to our former math and science teacher, Mr Harry Schwarzentraub, who taught at our school for seven years. He not only taught in our school, but also in elementary school and in other high schools. Mr. Schwarzentraub had the ability to co-operate with those who tried to co-operate with him. He was never too busy to help anyone and always had patience with the slow people who tried hard to learn. Page 1 HIGH SCHOOL Page 2 f f f f f High School Faculty Top Row—Norman Cobb.

Page 4 I President CHUCK HURLEY Vice President GRANT DENNISON Secretary CONNIE MYER Senior T’was nineteen hundred forty-six And we were Freshmen full of tricks Until we crossed the school house door And heard the din and awful roar Of the upperclassmen bold and gay Who were experienced in every way. Our teachers soon we did perplex. Both those from Croswell and from Lex, For there were two ninth grades that year. Initiation both did fear. So when the schools combined in one, We were the Sophomores full of fun. We all looked forward to that day When we could make the Freshmen pay As we had done the year before With lipstick, paddles, pranks and more. Then as the days began to pass. We longed to be a Junior Class. This year we had our Junior Play. The name of it was “Circus Day.” We had a meat loaf supper, too, Yet, there was plenty more to do. The Junior Class must never fail To have their yearly magazine sale. Class Then as this year went swiftly on We planned our banquet and our prom. The Seniors were our guests that night And everything went off just right With flowers, lights and music, sweet. It’s true, we thought that night complete. But don’t forget above all things This year we got our new class rings. Our final year then came at last And as the days went drifting past We had some suppers, dances, too. We did the things most Seniors do. With Christmas cards and Senior Play And pictures taken, we were gay. We thought about our April trip Or of the day we planned to skip. When Graduation came at last. School days to us had gone too fast. The Senior Class of fifty-one Has left a lot of work undone. We hope that in the bye and bye You undergrads of Cros-Lex High Will carry on the good school’s name And raise our Alma Mater’s fame. f 4 MISS TAIT MR.

Junior Class In September of 1948 we, the closs of 52 , entered the Croswell-Lex- ington High School os the largest Freshmen Class that has ever walked through its halls. Due to the consolidation with Lexington we had a total of 130 students. This year this number has decreased to 108 students. We were welcomed to high school by an initiation party given in our honor by the Sophomores. In our Sophomore year we entertained the newcoming Freshmen with an initiation party. In September of this year we came back to school to begin our biggest year so far. We have been putting forth projects to increase our money for our trip. Among these were our magazine sale, pancake supper, and Junior Play. For our Junior Play we selected Full of Youth . It was very successfully directed by Mr. Crawford of Lexington. We received our class rings, with which everyone was satisfied, in February. Now we are looking forward to our main event of the year, the sponsoring of the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. We, the class of 52 , wish the class of 51 success in anything and everything the future years may hold.

We felt pretty big when it was finally our turn to initiate the Freshmen Class. We increased our treasury by selling refreshments at football and basketball games. We also were glod to welcome the new pupils who entered this year to make a large class of 129. The Sophomore closs selected Miss Gertrude Merkel and Mr. Frank Kern for our sponsors. They gave their best advice on all our problems. This concludes the activities of the Sophomore Closs and we are all waiting to take our place among the upper classmen next year.

Gary Young, Sec’y-Treas. Lance Dobson, Pres. Freshmen Class The Class of 1954 consists of approximately 100 students. In Sep- tember the class had a meeting for the purpose of electing class officers. The results were as follows: President, Lance Dobson; Vice President, Shirley Clark; Secretary-Treasurer, Gary Young. The Freshmen Class student coun- cil members are Joyce Thibbadue ond Jerry Smeckert. The class advisers are Mr. Burnie and Mrs. Hewitt. The big engagement for the year for the Freshmen was the annual initiation of the Freshmen by the Sophomore class. For weeks before the big day, there was a wide field of opinion as to what would be some of the duties ond consequences if we did not follow the instructions given out by the Sophomore Class. Although it seemed doubtful ot times, everyone lived through it and had a lot of fun. The Freshmen have been very active in sports with Dick Hendry our first letter winner.

The Croswell-Lexington High School Band, under the very efficient leadership of Mr. J. R. Crothers, is gaining the position which they hove de- served so long. The bond hod a successful marching season. They gave o Christmas Concert, joining forces with the chorus, which was very well received. Three concerts were ployed in the spring. The band provided color and entertain- ment at most athletic events and pep meetings. In addition to their many other activities, the band received a first divi- sion rating at the district festival last year and attended the festival again this year. Several members of the band played in the Interlochen Orchestra last summer. Mr, Crothers expressed enthusiasm over the gains made and the co- operative spirit shown by members of the band.

Crothers, is growing in singing ability. The girls are learning such things as correct breathing, reading notes, cnj harmonizing. The Girls' Glee Club sang for the Christmas program, the Spring Con- cert, and various club programs. Also, the girls will attend the District Festival in hopes of qualifying for the State Festival.

Professionalism is not an aim of this group, but more an expression of those who are interested in music and enjoy singing. This group has presented many programs for various occasions and the highlight of the year was the Spring Concert spon- sored jointly with the band. Their season was both successful and enter taining.

A ploy with a different twist describes Off the Track by Felicia Metcalfe, which was presented November 17th by the senior class to an enthusiastic audience. Due to the derailment of a fast passenger train, a strange and con- glomerate group of passengers was forced to spend some time in o small wayside station on a dark and stormy night. From the moment that the first traveler stepoed into the station waiting room, a chain of hilarious events started that eventually led to the disappearance of a $10,000 pearl necklace and a mock court trial. The play was a huge success and the members of the cast, under the direction of Mrs. Meneghen, did a wonderful job of acting. Page 31 The Junior Play 1st row. left to right—Ed Carson. Bill Emigh.

Mr. Roy Crawford. “FULL OF YOUTH was a comedy and a romance rolled into one. The play was about the proprietor of the Jolly Inn. She (Mrs. Baynes), her son (Sonny Baynes), and her daughter (Linda Baynes) kept you laughing throughout the play. Sonny was a confirmed bachelor until Corliss Smythe came along Then the fun began. Dolly Gordon and her husband, Jumoi Gordon, came to spend their honeymoon at the Jolly Inn and what a mix up that was. Ira Grubb and Mrs. Smythe team up to try and get the Jolly Inn and its youthful mineral water from Mrs. Baynes, but Miss Patch, the old spinster, is on the job and never lets them have a minute to themselves. The rest of the cast played a big part in the comedy to make it a huge success. The play was written by Wilbur Braun and directed by Mr. Roy Craw- ford. We congratulate Mr Crawford and the ploy cast for a wonderful performance. Page 32 C.L. Club Top Row—Bill Shell, Leland Parker, Charles Hurley. Bob Black, Bob Debien.

Again this year the Future Homemakers of America Club was organized under the direction of Mrs. Hewitt, our Home Economics teacher. New members were initiated in the school gym, October, 1950, with a total of 31 members, approximately the same number os they had last year. One of the projects of the group was the dressing of dolls, which were auctioned off. This money went into their treasury. It was later used for one of their parties. Plans ore being mode to take a trip to Lansing on March 22 and 23 in order that they might get better ideas for good homemaking. We congratulate Mrs Hewitt for teaching these girls how to be better wives and mothers. Page 34 f f f f ■ ‘ F. F. A. First row, left to right—Ted Moran. Charles Gray, Dick Dickensheets.

We, of the Journalism Class, found that our big job was to edit this school annual, which was a considerable undertaking. We elected as our Editor-in-Chief, Grant Dennison. Some of the other jobs were write-ups, classifications. Senior activities, collecting snapshots, and setting up the dummy copy. Each individual had his particular work to do, and he did it well. We wish to thank Miss Tait, our sponsor, for the job she did in helping us put out our annual. Page 36 Journalism 1st Row, left to right—George Molesworth.

Blue-White Herald The members of Mrs. Meneghin's journalism class are responsible for the publication of our bi-weekly paper, The Blue-White Herald. It was necessary for full cooperation from all members to publish the paper. Under the leadership of Leland Parker, Blue-White editor, this was accomplished. Throughout this year they have kept us informed of past and coming events which were of interest to faculty and students. Page 37 Librarians Standing—Mrs. Hall, Martha Macklem. Carole Hoyt.

Their duties during study hall periods include checking out books and magazines, and helping students find information. The library subscribes to many of the popular leading magazines and new interesting and helpful books have been recently added. It is the re- sponsibility of the librarians to see that the books are kept free from dust and properly mended when they are torn. The books must also be placed on the proper shelves in order that the library may be kept as orderly and efficient as possible.

Mr. Howell, the new science teacher, is the club's sponsor. The officers of the Science Club are: President, Donald Bundy; vice president, Douglas Bundy; secretary and treasurer, Nancy Straffon. The members of the Science Club have done a variety of interesting things this year. They sponsored a square dance in the gym and visited Greenfield Village, Wayne County General Hospital, and Willow Run Air- port. They are planning to take an airplane ride during the spring.

The officers are: President, Bob Wait; Vice President, Nellie Oaks; Secretary, Barbara Garner; Treasurer, Shirley Hillis. The Spanish Club gave a play in Spanish and wrote letters to students in Spain and Mexico. A special attraction in the school variety show wos an act put on by the club.

They certainly have had a lot of school spirit and hove spent a lot of time and energy making up cheers. We wish to give special thanks to these six girls. Page 41 Queen’s Court Beautiful Mary West, a senior of Croswell-Lexington High School, was chosen football queen for the year of 1950-51. Her court consisted of three girls. They are, from left to right, Delores Buttigieg in a light blue formal, Evelyn Straffon in petal pink, and Ina Mae Purvis in nile green. Mary had a white formal with a hoop skirt with tiny shoulder straps. She knighted the football boys and after the pep meeting, the cheerleaders followed the bond and the queen in a snake dance through the main streets and back to the school. In the evening after the game we had our homecoming dance over which our queen reigned. The gym was decorated in blue and white. It was a big success and a very large crowd attended. Page 42 Football Co- Capta ins KELLY DENNISON CHARLES HURLEY The Keg The “Keg which was donated by Mr. Turrel in 1931 is now home. It was given to the Sandusky and Croswell High Schools, in order that there might be friendly competition. The two schools have looked forward each year to the winning and keeping possession of the Keg. The Keg decked Sandusky's halls for the last five years. We thank our Champion Football team for bringing it to us at last. Page 43 Varsity Football 1st row, left to right—Jim Sheridan, Bob Burch, Bob Bartley, Bob Black, Chuck Hurley, Kelly Dennison.

Only four teams were able to score on them. Coach Fronk Kern should be given a lot of credit for producing a team like this. Our co-captains for this year were Kelly Dennison and Chuck Hurley.

After a slow start in which they could win but one of five games, the Cros-Lex reserve team made its bid to become one of the first reserve teams to finish the season with o winning percentage. The reserves, however, dropped their last two games to comparatively weak opponents and finished the season with o six won and eight lost record. The squod was mode up entirely of 9th and 10th grade boys. Bob Burch, center-forward, led the reserves in scoring for the season. Joe Bigger, captain-elect of the squad, was a great help until scholastic difficulties put him out for the season. George Bartley, tiny 9th grader, was probably the outstanding floor player on the team. With a few additional inches of height, big things are expected of him. George O'Connor showed great improvement toward the latter part of the season. Page 48 Girls’ Basketball Team Row 1, left to right—Maggie Adams, Mary Domsic, Barbara Miller.

An enthusiastic group of girls turned oul and worked hard this year to compete for positions on the girls' basketball team. All of those pictured above appeared at some time in one of the games. During the season four games were ployed, two in the afternoon and two in the evening. They were victorious ones, Sandusky, Peck and Decker- ville. However, in a return engagement with Deckerville, our girls were defeated. Let's give special credit to these girls whose spirits were high whether winning or losing.
