Up on a hill, with a peaceful air The cradle of leaming welcomes us there It isn't the old and it isn't the new It's the joy of knowing what Americans can do In providing a school for all, not a few May God bless our new school in Depew. --Frances jermano 4 ww' l x f, mf' H A .

Ljq YEARBOOK is published to preserve the memories of school life so that one may sit down and recall the events of his high school career. Whether they be amusing or not these memories form life's treasure chest in later years. Events ofthe school year are brought to- gether in this annual in pictures and write- ups. The editors of the '54 yearbook have attempted to convey some of the outstanding happenings of the school year - dances, games, pep-assemblies, classes, organiza- tions, faculty and of course the seniors. Bringing all this material together is a difficult task and would not have been pos- sible without the cooperation of the whole student body and faculty. The Sentinel Staff of '54 hopes that its task was accomplished and that the results of their efforts, The Sentinel '54 will be well received by the whole student body and faculty. As you look over these pages, so full of memories of things that you were once part of, we sincerely hope that in years to come you will keep alive the friendships and ac- gviiaintances that you made while a part of is great American heritage . 5 A Co-editors: Joan Kubiak and Frank Lojacono.

N Depew's long history, the 1953- 54 football team added a brilliant season to the already long list of suc- cessful teams. Losing only one game, the team rolled up a record of seven wins and one loss . A highlight of the ear was the im- pressive last half exhibition of team work in the 26-21 win over Lancaster to attain the Rotary trophy. The Divi- sion ll title and the little three cham- pionship also came into the possession of the Wildcats . lndividual performances of Don Scamurra, the leagues high scorer, Benny Giangualano, Frank Lojacono, Ronnie Her and others rate special mention for their notable performances in the ames .

Many of the boys who lack height, make up for it by speed, aggressive- ness and ability to shoot. The Varsity encounters an eight- een game schedule.

Our four years at D.H.S. Let us now review, We would like to present Our accomplishments to you. JN our freshman year we elected as officers, Daniel Zwolinski, president, Joan Leskiw, vice-presidentg Jeannette DiPizio, secretaryg Dolores Paul , treasurer. A Get Acquainted dinner and dance began the year's activities. Through the help of our class advisor, Mrs. Mary Dombrowski, our freshman year proved very successful. As sophomores, our first job was to choose our officers. Elected were Frank Lojacono, presidentg Ronald Herb, vice-president, Rodney Au, secretaryg James Naber, treasurer. Mr. Filicetti was chosen as class advisor and following the custom at Depew High was to continue as our advisor through our senior year. Our activities for the sophomore year consisted of a Christmas party and dance, an interclass dance and a Sport's Nite which was a huge success. As a result of the cooperation of the class and the officers all of these programs were interesting and financially successful. Before we lmew it, we were juniors. Mr. Filicetti and the newly elected of- ficers continued to plan the years program for the class. The officers were Frank Lojacono, presidentg James Naber, vice-presidentg Pat Torrelli, secretary and Fred Lojacono, treasurer. As juniors, we were well represented in the magazine campaign and the inter- class dances. Every one enjoyed themselves at a Christmas dinner and dance. The Junior Prom was the big event of the year with James Naber as Prince and Jeannette DiPizio as Princess with Edward Bylina and Pat Torrelli as attendants. On the whole, our junior year was a huge success and we now looked forward to our senior with much anticipation. At last we have reached our goal and we are seniors. To start the year we elected Daniel Zwolinski as presidentg Joan Leskiw as vice-president, Jeannette DiPizio as secretary and James Naber as treasurer. Our class projects were a Sports Nite, a Class Nite, handling of a refresh- ment stand at football games, a dance and a sweater sale, all of which were very successful. Of course, the Jtmior-Senior Prom and graduation were looked forward to by all. As we recall these last four years at Depew High, we can truly say that they will always be remembered as the best years we have experienced. We wish to extend our sincerest thanks to all who in any measure contributed to our well- being and success. To the classes who follow us, we wish them as much pleas- ure and success as we have lmown. Oh, How they can talk, A little dancing to even when eating lunch!

The officers: president, Robert Stevensg vice-president, Ruth Dursog secretary, Sandra Lehmang and treasurer, Paul Balkowiecg with Mrs. Dombrowski as class advisor, who lead us to avery successful freshman year. Our first social event was a Get Acquainted dinner and dance, besides the inter-class dances we attended along with our own Prom in May. The freshman class at North junior High had Miss Trivisond and Miss San- flipo as their advisors. They elected for the different offices: president, Robert Maxwellg vice-president, Ronald Kantrag secretary, Jeanette Freeng and treasurer, Theresa Gramza. Their main social events were Hollowe'en Dance, A Christmas Party, A Valentine Dance and a May Flower Hop. Their dances were very suc- cesful and all who attended had a wonderful time. This was the third year that freshmen received their diplomas in caps and gowns . And we all can say it was a wonderful experience . 9' HE sophomore class consisted of 120 boys and girls coming from Depew and Cheektowaga. The class officers were: president, Martin Connelly, vice-president, Agnes Woolleyg secretary, Jane Stapleton, and treasurer, Kent Repka. Mr. Kraus was our class advisor and he helped us have a most success- ful Sophomore Hop along with numerous other activities such as, ir1ter-class dances, a Christmas party and the various sales run by the 3 classes at the bas- ketball games . We, the class of 1955, can now call ourselves juniors with Mr. Kraus again chosen as our advisor. Our class officers are: president, Robert Hyburgg vice- president, Agnes Woolleyg secretary, Ruth Dursog and treasurer, Martin Connelly. Now that we are Juniors we will join the seniors for the big event of the year the junior-Senior Prom. We are all looking forward to this. The class of 1955 has continued as an enterprising group since one of our money making projects again this year is selling icecream and potato chips at the basketball games. In February we held a Sweetheart Dance with the boys from the class choosing their Sweetheart of D.H.S. . This was as all previous class undertakings very successful and everyone had a wonderful time . Our final year in school at Depew is being anticipated by all with the hope of success in all our endeavors both scholastically and socially.

Both groups of freshmen conducted many activities, among them parties, dinners, dances, graduation ball, sports dances and many others. The gradua- tion exercises were held at the Athletic Field. One hundred thirty seven ninth graders took part in the exercises. The welcome address was given by Jack Roskoz and the farewell by Celia Wojcik. Our sophomore class consists of 131 boys and girls from Depew and Cheek- towaga. Mr. Gizinski was chosen as our advisor for the next three years as is the custom in Depew High. The officers are Jack Roskoz as president, Suzanne Matesz as vice-president, Shirley Sharpe as secretary and Arlene Gesek as treasurer. Some of the activities that we have taken part in this year are the Football Hops, Sadie Hawkins dance and Basketball Hops. Our big event of the year was the Freshman-Sophomore Prom held May 14. As next years juniors we anticipate a more varied and more successful pro- gram not only in our social activities but also in our studies and further prepara- tion for life. Here's proof that we work hard and play hard.
