Only a strong, courageous per- son attained this degree of chivalry because through it he had to love God so much as to be willing to sacriiice all for God, even to the extent oi giving his life for Him. ln choosing the title THE DON tor our yearbook, we wish to indicate that every student oi Don Bosco should be a real don in modern times. We are to carry the chivalry oi old into the present, to love God so much as to do all for l-lim and give up all for him and for what Christ stands. To be real dons, however, We need assistance and Where else can we find that help but from Mary, our Mother, the Mediatrix of all Graces. She will assist us in this our guest ior real knighthood so that when we reach that last moment in lite, she and her Divine Son will dub us knights of the heavenly kingdom. Let us, therefore, not iorget that as students oi Don Bosco, who have been trained by the militia of the Blessed Lady, the Brothers ot Mary, we must give a shining example of sterling Catholic virtue to all with whom we come into contact. May God and Mary help us to be worthy ot the name , Don.

In grateful homage, we the 1950 Senior Class of Don Bosco High School dedicate the first annual in the history of our school to Father William Ioseph Chaminade, Founder of the Society of Mary, on the occasion of the One Hundredth Anniversary of his death, and to the Brothers of that Society who celebrate this year, a century of unselfish labor for the benefit of American youth. No two names will ever call up in our hearts deeper feelings of gratitude for the priceless gifts of a Catholic education, which has been made possible for us by the inspiration and foresight of Father Chaminade and the untiring efforts of his Brothers. -Q QllllI'il gl mu 1 ,, f22' f 2-E -I xgl J., W4- P?.3.wvr1fi?1'-'W' JH' I ,- - 9- 1: -. . au ' ut mc.

FATHER WILLIAM IOSEPH CHAMINADE Williaiii loseph Chaminade was born in Perigueux, near Bordeaux, in l76l. From early childhood he had a tender devotion to Mary. As a young boy, 'William loseph was injured while playing. For quite some time there was no improvement, so the young loseph vowed to make a pilgrimage to Our l.ady's shrine at Verdelais in the event ot a cure, which vow he was only to glad to tultill a short time later. After his ordination to the priesthood, the young cleric devoted his life to the Chris- tianization of the youth ot France and that through devotion to Mary. Soon the French Revolution broke out in all its fury and he had to continue his work in secret and under disguise. Many and narrow were the escapes of Father Chaminade. ln l795, he was exiled to Spain. There in the quiet of the chapel ot Cur Lady of the Pillar at Sara- gossa, he spent hours in prayer, until the day Our Blessed Mother appeared to him and commissioned him to found the Brothers ot Mary and the Daughters ot Mary. On returning to France, he again devoted his time to youth, this time in the guise ol the many sodalities tor both young and old. The outgrowth ot these pious organizations was the Daughters ot Mary and the Brothers of Mary. l-lis methods ot teaching resem- bled Catholic Action so much, that the late Pope Pius Xl called Father Chaminade the Forerunner of Catholic Action. ln l8l7, seven young sodalists asked to become members ot the Society and thus was real- ized the commission entrusted to Father Chaminade at Saragossa. From then until his death in l85O, the aging Father Chaminade spent his lite in founding new religious communities, in establishing provinces and schools of the Marianists throughout France, in short, in spreading love and devotion to Mary The Society of Mary is unique in that it includes three categories ot persons: priests, teaching brothers and working brothers, en- gaged in every phase of the Christian lite and having but one aim: to bring all to Christ through Mary. Per Matrem ad Filiumln HIS EXCELLENCY THE MOST REVEREND MOSES E. KILEY, S.T.D. Archbishop of Milwaukee One of the persons nearest to the students of Don Bosco High School is none other than His Excellency, the Most Reverend Moses E. Kiley, Archbishop of Milwaukee. Without his foresight and consent, Don Bosco would be only a dream, rather than a reality. Even though speed and economy went into the construction of the new gym and faculty residence, the quality and the quantity of the equipment attest to the efficiency of his constructive ability. Besides, his personal interest has made Don Bosco well fitted to realize its purpose in Catholic education. ln this we see that the request of His Holiness, Pope Pius Xl, for a complete education of Catholic youth, has been followed to the letter. ln the succeeding years, as the students of Don Bosco continue to receive the dividends of this excellent Catholic education, we the class of l95U, shall ever remember in prayer His Excellency who made all this possible. 6 HIS EXCELLENCY BISHOP ROMAN ATKIELSKI Since the first day that Don Bosco High opened its doors, one of its staunchest supporters has been Chan- cellor and then Bishop Roman Atkiel- ski, His interest in our school, however, is not limited to being merely that of a curious onlooker, but rather showed itself in his active support. The fact that he is an active supporter, is evident from his turning over the purse, which he received on the occasion of his con- secration, to the fund used to build the new Don Bosco faculty residence and gymnasium. This evidence, plus his frequent visits here, during the construc- tion of the gym, and his all-around interest in Bosco convince us fully of his true friendship. The students of Don Bosco High, past, present, and future will be everlastingly grateful to Bishop Roman Atkielski, friend of Don Bosco High. MONSIGNOR EDMUND I. GOEBEL, Ph.D Superintendent of Schools The Archdiocese of Milwaukee is very fortunate in having Monsignor Goebel as the Superintendent of its school systems. Through his untiring efforts, the primary department of the Archdiocese has developed into one of the finest in the country. It was like- wise through his work and energy that the Catholic high schools in Milwaukee are bigger, better and more numerous. Not only is he known as an educator and administrator, but more so is he recognized nationally as a lecturer and speaker in educational circles. Such efforts on his part merit him the grati- tude and prayers of the Catholic stu- dents of Milwaukee, and of Don Bosco in particular. BROTHER EDWARD I. HOUSTON, S.M. Principal My dear Graduates: The moving linger writes, and having writ, moves on . . You have come to the end of your high school days. For most ot you, this marks the end of your iormal education. You stand before an observant and questioning world as a living example of the teachings oi Catholic philosophy and ol the Catholic religion. Yours is a tremendous responsibility. Let your lite in public and in private, as a citizen and as an individual, be a fulfillment of the principles you have learned. May your life be such that the eternal judg- ment rendered at its end will be He was a true 'Don' a real Catholic gentleman. May our Lord and His Blessed Mother guide you and keep you always.

SUMA The primary purpose of the Catholic school is to prepare its students spiritually to meet the problems they will encounter now and in the future. At Don Bosco, this instruction is taken care of by the various spiritual organizations, the assemblies, timely bulle- tins and the bulletin board display. The sodality program at school is under the direction of the chaplain. However, it is subidivided into the four divisions: seniors having I. Raszkiewicz, prefect, Nikolaus, vice- prefectp F. Warras, secretary, P. Samson, treasurer and Bro. Bernard Doering, modera- tory the juniors with A. Truszkowski, prefect, 46 D. Wachowiak, vice-prefect, W. Zinda, sec- retary-treasurer, and Bro. Marion Belka, mod- eratorg the sophomores with C. Kaczkowski, prefect and Bro. Daniel Sharpe, moderator: and the freshmen under the direction of Bro. lohn Leies. The Living Rosary in the gym, daily rosary devotions in the school lobby, the food drive and the musical skit at Christmas, the Chami- nade pageant, Lenten devotions and the Suma convention were some of the few out- standing activities handled by the sodalists of the school.

Catholic Students Mission Crusade The Catholic Students Mission Crusade began in 1945 as a part ot the Sodality under Father McCarty. In 1946, Brother Anthony was appointed official moderator and our C.S.M.C. unit was rated as Catholic Action. Through the tive years ot its exist- ence, the C.S.M.C. has Worked hard on any project connected with the missions, such as, collecting cancelled stamps, gathering old clothing, running food drives, visiting the sick and Christmas caroling. Along Fr Louis Trawalter opening the with these corporal Works ot mercy, the unit prays tor the mission and tries to be an in- fluence on all through the apostolate oi Catholic Action.

Under the able direction of Mr. William Reynolds, and a cast of seniors, juniors, and sopho- mores, this year's play outshined last year's. The First Legion depicts the life of the Iesuits in the small community house of St. Gregory's in Southern France. After eighteen years in the order, Fathers Thomas Rawleigh and Iohn Fulton decide to abandon the Society: Father Fulton to make a name for himself in music: Father Rawleigh still in love with his childhood sweetheart. Father Mark Ahern, a very close friend of the two, tol- erated their disillusionment, but finally convinced them that the Order was the only thing that would ever bring them contentment. Father lose Sierra, a para- lytic was cured by a supposed miracle, which turned out later to be merely a subterfuge on the part of Peter Morell, the community doctor. Rt. Rev. Msgr. Michael Carey, the pastor of the nearby parish, and Father Robert Stuart, who disliked the presence of the monsignor, continually disputed about the disciplining of the 50 Legion novices. Father Edward Quarterman, who had just returned from lndia, recounted a few tales concerninq the pagans ot the Far East. Rector ot the Order was Father Paul Duquesne, a very prominent man in the Society. l-le was ably assisted by Father Charles Keene, the vice-rector. The closing scene portrayed the miracle ot linnny Magee, who had never walked without the aid ol a wheelchair. The little boy proved that with Faith many Wonder- lul thinas can happen, and without Faith no man can exist. 'THE C'AS'l' Htv. Paul Dtiqiii-sriti, Sl. . . leroxne VVesolawslqi livv.

Alumni Association The Don Bosco Alumni organization be- gan last year under the direction of Brother loseph Konitzer, with the cooperation of the l948 graduates. Officers were selected and meetings were held monthly. The present officers are: Daniel Viferachowski, president, Paul Heinz, vice-president, Lambert Napier- ala, secretary, and Williani McMahon, treasurer. This past year meetings were held and plans laid for next year's activities. Monthly meetings consist of the regular business gathering, entertainment and refreshments. Plans for next year include the following events: Halloween Dance, Homecoming Alumni football game, Pre-Lenten Dance, Alumni basketball team, alumni bowling league, Communion Mass and Breakfast, Play fcomedy probablyl, card party, skat- ing party and many other activities. The Dad's Sport Night, the smoker spon- sored by the Alumni on April 12, was a big success. Boxing exhibition matches, wrest- ling matches, sports movies, refreshments, entertainment and speeches marked the event. Mr. Marv Bell, the new football coach and Mr. Sammy Cook, the basketball mentor were presented to the Alumni. Their words on the coming athletic year augurs well for the Dons. Mr. Regent, the wrestling coach and Brother Iames Powers, the boxing in- structor were also presented to the Alumni. All in all, the smoker, the first major activity attempted by the Alumni, proved to be a great success. With this spirit the school can expect many and great things of the Alumni in the future. ,I- 2: .c I Q, 5211 .U ,, D o mm N :ix . 5: xx E, .N Lx 141 S S x Q -v ' : sim L. 94 Q by VX-A x.: gm CJ Z ua ax 41 ..: 5.

Band Since its organization in October, 1947, the Don Bosco band has grown from a small nucleus of ten to the present forty members. lt was due to the efforts of Mr. A. Gehrke, the band director, that the unit has developed into the entertaining group that it now is. Everyone remembers the lively music Csport marches and polkasl played at assemblies and basketball games. A real spirit creator! ln its choice of Mr. Gehrlce, the faculty has given the school an experienced director. He comes to us as the present director of the famous Cutler-Hammer Band of Milwaukee. Daily individual lessons to beginners and others, plus the frequent group rehearsals, have been repaid in the band unit we now have. The student interest in the band at present augurs well for its continued success and greater increase in numbers for the future. Seated: G. Rublein, D. Smithes, D. Chrystal. Standing: S.

The sophomore squad e-composed of Don Smithes, Gerald Sulli- van, james lakubek and Stanley Reclzinski ----engaged in three tournaments during the forensic season. On December lO, the de- baters journeyed to Racine to take part in St. Catherines practice tourney. On Ianu- ary 14, Notre Dame High School was their host at the First Annual Notre Dame Debate Tournament. Both of these were senior meets. On February 18, the group met all sopho- more competition in the Wisconsin Catholic Speech League junior Debate Tournament held at Marquette High School. In this final tournament the Don Bosco squad placed second. The freshman teamecomposed of Eugene Kujawa, Donald Brick, George Ftublein, and Donald Chrystal--took part only in the Catholic League's junior tournament on Feb- ruary l8. However, the team did engage in several practice debates with schools of the city. Oratory Don Bosco's aspiring orators took part in six major speech events during the 1949-50 season. Several students entered the l Speak for Democracy Contest in November, sponsored by the Milwaukee Iunior Cham- ber of Commerce. Wayne Nedwek and Walter Sczesny, speaking on the American Constitution, appeared in the Thirteenth An- nual American Legion Oratorical Contest in early March. At the C.S.M.C. Oratory Con- test, held on March 7, Don Smithes spoke on St. Francis Xavier, patron of the missions. Don Bosco was the host school for this event. The school also participated in the Mil- waukee Sentinel Tournament of Orators Contest. This year the subject chosen was the historical figure lames Madison. On April 29, three of the debaters took part in the Marquette High School World Assembly -a mock congress of delegates to UNESCO. The speech season closed with the Milwau- kee Catholic Speech Leagues Senior Foren- sic Tournament on April 22 at Pius Xl High School and the junior Forensic Tournament at Notre Dame High School on May 6.

The smokers, held in the school cafeteria, scored a great hit with the dads. They as- sembled to play cards, watch sports movies and others, and to talk over old times with their friends. Two dances sponsored by the club for the students highlighted the first semester. At the Homecoming Dance on November ll, Ice Caravella provided the music, whilst the Winter Dance on Ianuary 27 was danced to the sweet music of Steve Swedish and his band. A Christmas party on December 20 for the students and their families spread real Christmas spirit amongst all. After various students displayed their talents, Santa Claus made many a tot happy with gifts. The Second Annual Father-Son Night, held on March 17 was a huge success. Festivities began with a talent show in the gym, followed by community singing of Irish songs. Then all came to the cafeteria for refreshments and games: cards, ping pong, dartball and some sport shorts. The dads came into the spotlight with their excellent rendition of the play Bertha, the Beautiful Typewriter Girl, which was pre- sented on April 21 and 23. The outstanding event of the year was the Home Show, May 9, IO, ll and 12. It offered the parents many new ideas for equipping their homes. Finally, for the third consecutive year, the association will honor the graduating class with a Communion breakfast on lune 4. The Prom Don Boscos third annual prom. reigned over by King Syl Bonlc and his queen, Miss Natalie Eichhorst of Mercy, proved to be an evening of fun for everyone. Since it was the first prom held in the schools new gym, no effort or expense was spared in decorating the gym or in other ways assuring its success.

Bro. lohn Donohoo, Ath- letic Director the past four years, ceded his position to Mr. Philip Schrempf, the varsity football coach. Mr. Sammy Cook took over the basketball coaching job, vacated by Mr. Schrempf. Bro. lames Powers and Mr. Robert Regent introduced boxing and wrestling Dr. E, B. O'Leary and Dr. Ioseph I.

Prospects for next year's athletics at Don Bosco are really bright. terests of the school in regard to sports is to safe- guard the physical welfare of its athletes. ln this ca- pacity the able assistance of Doctors O'Leary and Adamlciewicz have been secured.

Varsity Football Although the football team's record Ctwo ties and six losses? was not an impressive one, our opponents will not forget the tremendous drive and fighting spirit of the Dons. The opener with Nathan Hale saw the Dons take an early first quarter lead only to have it tied in the third period. The final quarter remained scoreless and the game ended in a 6-6 deadlock. Starting slowly against Pius Xl the Dons came to life in the second half to tie up the contest, but the Popes managed to score once more as time was running out, and won 13-6. Battling a highly favored Hilltop eleven on even terms for three quarters the Don's defense weakened in the last five minutes as the boys from Marquette tallied twice to outscore the Green and Gold l9-6. The Angels from Racine came to town and un- leashed their terrific running and passing attack to smother the Dons 38-6. An expected non-conference breather with Green' dale turned into another defeat for the Dons, l9-7. After a scoreless first period the Greendale eleven tallied once in each of the remaining quarters to win easily. Swick scored on an end run for the Dons. Revolinski's stellar playing in the first half held the Messmer attack to a single touchdown, but the Bishops came roaring back in the second half to score twice whilst holding the Dons scoreless, win- ning l8-0. The underdog Dons forced the Eagles from Cathe- dral to come from behind twice to tie the Dons. The play of Captain Nikolaus at tackle and the passing combination of Dorlack to Rehorst were the Don highlights. On a brilliant sunny afternoon, the Green and Gold Dons battled the Red Wings of Notre Dame in a double homecoming football game before some 5,000 spectators at South Stadium. Tough, rugged old-time football marked the game from beginning to end, as the Red Wings snatched victory out of ap- parent defeat in the last thirty seconds. The field generalship of Van Bendegon on the Don touchdown march at the start of the second half was spectacular. The Dons lost this heartbreaker l3-7. Over the season, Revolinski at center and Niko- laus and Karpfinger on the forward line were out- standing for their rugged play. Rehorst and Kreuser at ends packed the Don scoring punch, with Dorlack doing the passing. The soph-junior backfield of Van Bendegon, Dorlack and Modieska performed excep- tionally well. Modjeska and Revolinski were picked on the All-Catholic conference sguad. NORMAN REVOLINSKI Big, alert, aggressive, the Dons Center of Attraction, that's Senior 'Revo', Bosco's All-Conference cen- ter. The lead man on many a vital quarterback sneak and line plunges, Norm was the spearhead of the Don offense. Still, it was his defensive play that made him particularly brilliant. He was second choice on the All-Catholic conference eleven, DON IVIODIESKA Don played a bang-up game as the Dons' bucking fullback. He stood out on defense, blocking holes in the line, batting down enemy passes, and staggering the opponent's of- fensive before it could get under way. His season's play netted him a berth on the All-Catholic conference squad. Action shots in the Notre Dame, Marquette and Messmer games A First Row: D. Kobs, I. Richter, R. Kruszka, G. Przybylski, T.

In the five games played, they scored 56 points against the opposition, whilst limiting them to a scant two touchdowns. A big aggressive eleven with a great fighting spirit was the key to success for the freshmen. Although the entire squad is deserving of congratulations on their fine spirit and splen- did achievement, special mention must be given to several of the boys for outstanding service: Billy Rubin's blocking, Moose Worzala's and Sammy Samanos line- plunging, lack Kloza's field generalship and passing, and Eddie Zielski's pass reception. When these boys clicked together nothing could stop them as is shown by their sea- son's record. Great promise for the future is expected of this yearling crop already for the coming season with the varsity.

More particularly noted for his scoring ability, he was equally outstand- ing as a defensive player and it was his amazing rebound work that so often checked an enemy scoring threat. Op- posing players will remember him for many reasons: his deadly one-handed push shot, his ability to fake a man out and drive in for a set-up, or his frequent interception of their passes, but the Don Bosco players and fans will always re- member him as a guy who never let up from the referee's opening whistle until the timer's final horn. ln his last home appearance he rang up 27 points and two days later closed his high school basketball career against St. Catherines with 29 points. lt was in this game that he set a new all-time Catholic Conference free throw record, 17 out of 20 tosses. l-le was the choice of both the Milwaukee papers on their All-Conference Team at the close of the season. Some highlights in Bosco games: Ioe Raszkiewicz fakes out a Messmer guard and racks up two points, Ralph Knoll takes a pivot shot in the Marquette game and Raszlciewicz comes in for an assistf Ioe Raszlciewicz pops one from inside the foul line.

The quintet at the beginning of the season comprised the following as starters: Van Bendegon and Dziczkowski at guard, Kosi- dowski at center and Gooder and Molotkiewicz at for- wards. As the season rolled on this entire starting five gradu- ated to the varsity five, in preparation for the coming season of l95O-51. As a result, Bro. Iohn Kurz, the coach had to start all over again and knit together a second working five. The regular starting group this time con- sisted of Brozynski and Martyka at forwards, LaSalle at center with Houlehen and Slawnikowski at the guard spots. Considering all things the B team quintet did fairly well, ending the season with a .500 record: winning twelve, tieing one and losing twelve. Houlehen and Slawnikowski did a great job of bringing the ball down the floor and starting the playsq Martyka stood out for his one-handed push shots from the outside, whilst Brozynski's rebound work was re- markable. LaSalle improved as the season rolled along on its way. The forthcoming season should see most of these youngsters on the varsity squad, each one contributing his share to making the Dons' quintet in l95U a good one. 74 RECORD Boys' Tech . . Greendale .

Boxing For the iirst time, boxing has been intro- duced at Don Bosco and has met with great success. Approximately l00 boys signed up immediately after hearing of its being added to Bosco's growing number ot sports activities. Unlike football or basketball, one doesn't have to be so heavy or so tall. Anyone, irom a 90 pounder to a 200 pound heavy- weight, can box, as long as he is willing to get into a ring and take a few punches as well as throw them. Boxing is the kind ot sport that gives a iellow confidence in himself. When he gets into a ring with someone, there aren't ten others to help him out as in iootball. Win or lose, he's on his own. The Boxing tournament was held on March 24, 25, 31 and April 2, 14 and l5. Ten champions were crowned the iinal day. K 4 Q ..

Wrestling After weeks ot hard work, violent twisting, pulling, thumping, and straining, the Don Bosco Wrestlers have shown the results ot their practice at several exhibition bouts and elimination tournaments held in conjunction with the boxing tournament. Wrestling at Don Bosco is quite different to what one is accustomed to see over television. The object of the wrestlers is not to put on a show of excruciating methods of make-believe tor- ture, but rather to put to use their skill and strength to throw and pin their opponents. Next year the wrestlers hope to enter some inter-scholastic competition. Considering the excellent job of training that Mr. Regent has turned in so tar working with little time and equipment, we should be able to look for- ward to providing some good competition to whatever schools we take on next year.

Clybourn Street - Milwaukee 8, Wisconsin An Open Letter to the 1950 Don Bosco Graduates Gentlemen: You are indeed fortunate. Besides having had the benefit of four years of preparation under the spiritual guidance of the Brothers of the Society of Mary, you have the additional advantage of leaving high school to enter a world which for the moment is at a peace of sorts. Some of you will go on to university: some will begin learning a trade: others will continue at enterprises in which they are already at work. However, the mere fact that you no longer face the immediate prospect of entry into the military service does not absolve you from the responsibility of girding yourself for the War of Christ. Powerful temporal forces are hard at work in an attempt to crush the influence of the teachings of the Savior on the people of the world. You have an inherent obliga- tion to work twice as hard to maintain the gains of the battles on behalf of Christian teachings. and. to prepare new attacks on the godless, anti-Christians who seek, at first through Utopian promises, and later through terrorism. to dominate the freedom of spirit and the freedom of will given us by our Maker. In the world today we hear much of two words, Tolerance and Discrimination. Discrimination. a weasel word for hatred, exists and is actively promoted by insidious forces in matters of social class, race, religion, and financial position for the lack of itl, etc. Tolerance is a condition in which the hypocrite hates but does not generally show his hatred to the person or thing or condition toward which his hatred is directed. You, within yourself, must substitute the state of Christian Love for the conditions of Tolerance and Discrimination. A Christian and American way of life invites all of you. Some of you will become wealthy- others may spend a part or all of their lives in deepest poverty. Wealth is not disgraceful if it is acquired and used in a Christian manner. Someone in the world must provide the tools with which real wealth is produced. Others use those tools and thereby earn a decent living. Still others. through the force of circumstances, or, breaks , if you will, will not even have the tools or the opportunity to use them, and they will have a hard life. But, neither is poverty a disgrace. We have ample precedent in the life of Christ. Therefore, no matter what your worldly circumstances, remember that the size of your pocktbook is not a gauge of the wealth of your spirit. Each one of you must set his own worldly and spiritual goals. It you make your worldly goal a Christian one, if you use Christian methods to achieve it, if you constantly pace your temporal progress on your spiritual progress, you may or may not achieve your worldly goal, but, more important, you will have attained that final fullness of spirit without which a row of figures in a bank book is a pretty empty measure of success. Above all. live a Christian life, fight for your privilege to live that kind of life. and fight for the right of others to share that privilege. The Salon Studio Allegra P. Troiano Vernon A.
