Twenty-three H., ,,,M,W VT. . , Class History With heads high and a strictly scholastic determination, the class of 1944 entered the doors of our Alma Mater as freshies. We were just a little strange but we man- aged to get along. Harry Szynski was elected to lead us through our first big year, assisted by Lois Darbee, Lois Fuller, and Charles Greve. Freshman Night was held on October 21, 1941 and deep in every heart a feeling of pride covered the outer layer of bashfulness and fright. Twenty boys and girls took part in our play The Americans presented that memorable night. The play was more or less a patriotic pageant appro- priate because of the national and international conditions as they were at the time. Time passed quickly after Freshman Night and it was very soon that Regents approached and we discovered we were no longer greenies -but full fledged Sophomores. We began our second year by electing Harry Szynski to lead us again and Carol Pfleeger, Betty Schmatz, and Richard Eden to act as his assistants. The first half of our year went by rapidly and just before the Christmas vacation we were told that our first social dancing party of our school career was to be held on February ll, l942. We voted for an open party. As the result, members of every class enjoyed themselves with us dancing or playing various games. On May 29, we Sophomores joined with the Band and presented a Memorial Day Assembly. We did not present a class play that year because due to war conditions, peace plays that might have been of some point in another year, just were not suitable at that time. K Re-elected once more Harry Szynski became the head of our Iunior Class. Beatrice Brooks, Phyllis Centner, and Myron Bose were elected to assist him. By this time we really felt a part of the school. On February l2, 1943 our lunior Party was held amidst attractive Valentine decorations. The biggest surprise of the evening was Dolly Doke's Donut Program which was quite a success. The next month our class rings arrived and it was then that we really realized the largest part of our school career was almost over. With Be tolerant of others' ideas as the theme our Iunior Class play, Promote the General Welfare was presented May 7 at the Iunior Day Assembly. ln the fall of our senior year, Harry Szynski was chosen as our president for the fourth consecutive time. As his assistants Phyllis Centner, Beatrice Brooks, and Wil- liam Szczerbacki were chosen. Our English clubs and history clubs were organized shortly after this. On November 10, our Senior Party was held with an Armistice Day theme. lt was a closed affair so that the class as a group could have one final good time together. The next month our class undertook the successful project of selling magaz'nes to increase the amount in our class treasury. On February 18, the History League pro- gram was presented, on which occasion our class made its last appearance as a group before the entire student body. Shortly after this book goes to press, our senior play Letters to Lucerne written by Rotter and Vincent will be given. The cast is now re- hearsing at every available opportunity. The important senior events in May are the History League Banquet and the English Reception. The program for each of these is now being planned. In Iune, there will be our Class Night and Commencement. lt hardly seems possible that our four years are so nearly over. We have en- joyed school even though at some times we thought our tasks were difficult. But now when the end is so close, we know we shall miss our pleasant schoolmates and asso- ciations, but We shall always have pleasant Memories of them.

The quartette of Iunior officers is to be congratulated for planning and conducting such a fun-for-all entertainment. I During the last few days the Sophomore officers have had their heads in the clouds and their minds on the Sophomore party. According to all reports it Was a big affair. a The Freshmen have already made one grandiose appearance. Their Freshmen night program was a great success and each officer deserves credit for his particular part on the program.

IUNIOR CLASS A few weeks after we Iuniors organized in September we began to make plans for our annual party. On November 19 we had the party in the boys' gym where the members of the class and our invited guests were entertained by dancing to the music of Dick Comella and his orchestra. Besides dancing we had games and a program. Edgar Towne played a violin solo, David Menzel a flute solo, and Florian Cieslewicz a piano accordian solo. A trio composed of Geraldine Proper, Phyllis Carpe r, and Ioan Iohn- son sang arid l e I sio ski gave a monologue. Refreshment ere served during ' UPPER GROUP A FIRST ROW: B. Cummings, M. Grecler, F.

Students trorn near and far regularly eat there. Several hot dishes as well as salads and deserts are always on the rnenu. Mrs. Katherine Iohnson is the dietician, and Mrs. Tillie Tallnian is the business accountant. Alter lunch the students rnay either leave the huildina or remain in the cafeteria to visit quietly or work. Two teachers are always on duty during the noon hour. There is one outdoor sport that is participated in and enjoyed by the majority ot our school students. That sport is skating. During the winter season the pond by the athletic tield is under school supervision and turnishes an excellent oppor- tunity tor healthful exercise.

Senior Play When Letters To Lucerne by Fritz Batter and Allene Vincent played on Broadway two seasons ago, the New York Herald Tribune praised it highly. And so the Senior Class took much pride in producing this unusual play which has a boarding school in Switzerland for its setting and which shows how at the out- break of this present war, Madame Hunter, Head mistress of the school, portrayed by Marion Hemphill tried to keep the school isolated from the terrible things happening out- side. But the bitterness seeped in through the letters which the girls received, and the girls' lives were affected accordingly. The cast did an admirable piece of work. Despina Kourelis as Olga Kirinski, Beatrice Brooks as Erna Schmidt, Elsie Haber CIS Felice Renoir Virginia Stecker CIS Sally lackson, Patricia Baumqartner as Marion Cur- wood and Betty Schmatz as Bingo Hill, all interpreted their characters as the students with feeling, as did Marion Hemphill as Mrs. Hunter and Ruth Hackett as Miss Linder a teacher. Kathryn Petz was MCIFQICIIG-the, the delightful Swiss maid: Albert Ossrnan portray- ed Gustave, Charles Greve was Francois, Richard Eden Wag Koppler, and Gerald Wills played the part of Hans Schmidt, Erna's brother, The seniors enjoyed working out this human drama under the direction of Miss Katherine Drago of the faculty. Lois Smith and Antoinette Biscaro were promptors. For ty eight A A I Lg , cl rf, .l. 4 v 14. , L f N, . a-in 'QQQ' Y N D!

The Ivy Tower Staff All members of our 1944 staff were volunteers rather than students selected by the faculty as in previous years. Early in November Miss Agnes Noon, our advisor, put most of us to work, for we all realized that we would have to meet many war time problems and difficulties. lane Root and Betty Whitney headed the feature committee, assisted by Helen Cree, Lorene Leone, Dolores Perry, as well as Barbara Wirtner, our editor, and Phyllis Centner, our business manager. Noreen Iamieson, as chairman, worked on the adver- tisement committee with Phyllis Centner, Sylvia Fafinski, Charles Greve, Patricia Hille- bert, Ioseph Kwas, Lorene Leone, Rosalino Lohrenz, Eugene Nowak, Carol Pfleegor, Dorothy Plenta, and Lucille Sobczalz. lane Staehle was chairman of the typing. Her assistanls were Phyllis Centner, Lorene Leone, Carmella Nagro, Eugene Newell, and Caryl Norton. lohn Rowe was in charge of clrculations. His committee made up of volunteers was aided by the Misses Mary and Ann Weber who helped as auditors. The art work under the direction of Miss Teresa Schober was done by the fol- lowing: Elario Benamati, Norma Bradley, Robert Dahn, Albert De Pasquale, Iune Haas, Frank Reading and Virginia Stecker. Donald Naetzker had charge of photography. The following members made literary contributions: Phyllis Centner, Richard Eden, Lorene Leone, Doris lean Haas, Iohn Rowe, Betty Whitney, and Barbara Wirtner. The work was interesting, but now that it is over, we feel that our time was well spent and hope our readers will think so too. Forty-nine Fifty English Four Clubs The organization of the English lV classes into clubs, one of the outstanding events of the Senior year, took place early in October. The purpose of these clubs was to teach parliamentary procedure, to give stu- dents an opportunity to express themselves before their group, and to learn the elements of good speech. Regular meetings were held twice a month, at which time varied programs plan- ned by the students themselves were presented. Some of the most interesting programs were upon current events, the lite and work of prominent individuals of the past and present, outstanding books, and material appropriate for special days. The main event of the year was the English Party held in the school library, Friday afternoon, May l9. An excellent program was presented, and refreshments were served. A social hour and dancing followed. The special project of the year was the making of a poetry anthology. These were attractively displayed by clubs at the English Party, and prizes were awarded at that time to the two members of each club who had made the best books in their partl- cular group. l t Whittier Frank Pizzolanti President Patricia l-lillelwmt Vice l3'resideiil Lois Smith Secretary Walter Papiorki Treasurer lnrenc Leone Citizen Reprsrftrr Longfellow Robert Bartlcowiak President Richard Schraritz Vice President Beatrice Brooks Secretai y Frank Reading Treasurer George Hollwtilwcrlc Citizen Reporter Lowell llwxnzllxs l1n'KI11'I llnvsxllwlml AIlx'IlU NN wllw Vwo lllviilxlvlll llllyllis LYOIXUINI Bev! 91411 W fwmrxlwx' llulxltilli ln wxsuxvx livlly Vfllillzv-y L'.l..'f ll llwpwllwx Shakespearean Phyllxs liuvklwy P14 -sillom l-llxII1U llxllluillldll Vim l'rwsi.lr-111 Dolls l. llasrl, lNPH'Ix'lxIIY liwlty livszflwl llwasmvl' lrlmlllllllfx Kuylcwwskl ll1lll'm'I1 livgwrh I' Brewninq lkzxl-lu.: W'11Ir1v1 PM sillvm Nllwxinll llvxmplxlll Vlvw PIOS1mlvIll Vlmiuixx Slvukvr Swclvtar v ll'lh!llIfi S'zx1p::w1 'l'rm1s111-H1 llmnzwlmf- Nwwwll k'1ll.'wx1 H..,w.lx1l1 English Four Clubs fi' ky Flfly-one History League The History League is comprised of all fourth year history students. The object of the League is to discuss current topics and collateral reading, to acquaint students with parliamentary procedure, and through these meetings and activities to create good citizenship, and to develop cooperation among its members. During the year, the League studied many interesting topics, such as future peace plans, the future of lndia, the Polish-Boundary Dispute, and global geography. They debated on the efficiency of trusts, the relationship between niovies and crime, the value of initiative and referendum, advantages of the short ballot, unions and inass production, and democracy versus totalatarianism. The activities sponsored by the League are the Senior Program, featuring the importance of Wvashington and Lincoln in American life, and the banquet which marks one of the most important social events of the senior year.

This gala attair was rnade possible throuqti the ettorts ot Miss Mary Weber, Head ot the History Departrnent, assisted by Miss Ann Weber and capable cornrnittees. Now that the Senior History Club days are over, it is with reqret that the nieni- tfers ot the class ot 1944 bid adieu to their Alma Mater. Not only were the club activities devoted to a study ot Problems ol Deinocracy and World Problems, but rnany ideals were inculcated. As the club rnenibers ao out into the world, no niatter where lite rnay load thern, may they be ever true to these ideals, and always worthy alurnni ot the Dunkirk Hiqh School.

The club sponsored a Senior High School social hour in the girls' gym and a Christmas Fiesta for the members and guests, at which those present enjoy- ed a program of games after which refreshments were ser-ved. ln the second semester fourteen new members, who survived initiation, were admitted to membership. The new members, as well as all members of the Spanish classes were entertained at a dinner sponsored by the club and given in the school cafeteria. Decorations in the form ot place cards made by the students, and flowers in the club colors produced a brilliant background for the dinner and the ofler-dinner program of toasts and Spanish music. These affairs, in addition to the regularly scheduled meetings have made the club's activities numerous. At these meetings, the primary purpose is to further the correct use of the Spanish language. The themes of discussion are the lives and customs of our Spanish neighbors with occasional films to bring these topics into reality.

School Garden Trophy The lunior High School garden trophy is awarded every year by the Lake Shore National Bank to the room with the largest complete garden record, but the boy or girl who has the best individual record in any room has his or her name engraved on the plaque. Each students record must show not only what was raised in the garden but also the cost of everything. This year Boom 205 had the largest com- plete records, while the highest individual score was obtained by Walter Wills of Boom 77. Clarence Snyder from Boom 202 was honorable mention. Last November during an assembly period Mr. R. H. Heppell made the present- ation in the name of the bank to Betty Anne Graf who accepted it for Boom 205, and he congratulated Walter as prize winner.

KARL HOEPPNER, head of the physical education department, has been guiding the youth of Dunkirk High School for twenty-seven years, Dur- ing that time he has brought about many changes in the athletic life of the school. lt was mainly through his efforts that an old vacant lot on West Sixth Street was developed into the fine athletic field we enioy today. Mr. Hoeppner has produced some of the finest football teams that Western New York has over had and he has coached our tennis and golf teams to many championships. Besides his gym classes, Coach Hoeppner has charge of the inter-class basketball contests, is faculty advisor for the Boys' D Club and the Athletic Association, and Commanding Officer of our Pre-Induction Com- pany. Sv COACH CHARLES AEY joined the Dunkirk High Schocl coaching staff in 1923 at which time he immediately took over the duties of assistant foot- ball coach and became the head coach of basket- ball, volleyball, and track. Before coming to Dun- kirk he coached track at Alleghany College, where he had previously received his Master of Science Degree. Mr. Aey has charge of all the morning gym classes and runs the intersclass volleyball games. He has produced many championship basketball and track teams, but his best record is in volleyball. His teams have captured the Chautauqua County Volleyball crown fourteen out of the fifteen years that it has been in existance. Coach Aey is the president of the Lake Shore Basketball League. Cui' Cheerleaders On the athletic field and in the gym the enthusiasm of these popular cheer leaders has helped us win many of our games. Phyllis and Virginia are seniors and will leave school in Iune, but Marilyn, Everett, and Peter will be back again next year. The senior class wishes them good luck at every game.

Football Team The Maroon and White griders did themselves justice this year by coming out vic- torious in one-half of their six games. The squad was small and inexperienced, with only four lettermen back from last year's team. They were Wayne Luce, Dick Eden, Bill Szczer- backi, and Art Kilian. Kilian came back as a Post-Graduate, but left the team to join Uncle Sams Navy before the season was completed. ln the f.rst game of the season Dunkirk defeated Falconer by a score of 6 to U. Doug Ticknor crashed over his own right tackle, from the two yard line, for the only score of the game. A heavy bonecrush- ing Iamestown machine handed Dunkirk its first defeat. They piled up a score of 27 points, while the Marooners spent most of their time on the defense. ln a real thriller all the way, Dunkirk scored a 7 to 6 win over the Blue and White of Batavia. Qur touchdown was scored by Bill Barlow, and Szczerbacki kicked the all-important extra point. The next two games saw Dunkirk humbled by both Erie Strong Vincent and Gowanda High Schools. in the final game Dunkirk beat their traditional rivals from Fredonia by one touchdown. This came in the third quarter when loe Catalano sprinted over the payeoff line. Dick Eden passed the pigskin into the end-zone where Dave Watson gathered it in for the point-after-touchdown. Dunkirk threatened to score two more times, but the stub- born Predonia line managed to keep the score at 7 to U. Sixty one SEATLD: loseph Del Popolo, Donald Straight, Harry Szynski, Richard Eden, Anthony Bennice, Daniel Fornianowicz. Q S'fIXNDlNC1: Louis Nocek, Manager, William Barlow, Van Miller, Douglas Simpson, Henry Be-gior, Coach Aey. Basketball The local basketball fans enjoyed many exciting and tense moments in the Dun- kirk High School gym this year. The small but scrappy Maroon and White Wildcats won ten out of fifteen of their scheduled games. Coach Aey had only two first stringers back from his championship team of last year. These were forward Billy Szczerbacki and guard Dick Eden. The team started the season with six wins and one loss. They defeated two Erie schools and Clean before losing to Falconer. ln the next three games the Dun- kirkers took out their revenge on Westfield, St. Mary's, and Fredonia. The following three games saw Dunkirk in a slump and humbled by Iamestown, Silver Creek, and again by Falconer. ln the Westfield game Dunkirk established a record that will stay in the Lake Shore League files for a long time. They prevented the Westfield team from scoring any field goals during the first three quarters. The final score was 44-12. The Maroon went on to defeat St. Marys and Fredonia, but fell into the loss column against lames- town. To wind up a good season the Wildcats played their hearts out in their effort to win over the league-leading Silver Creek team. lt was a thrilling game all the way through, and Dunkirk came out on the big end of a 36 to 30 score. The outstanding fea- ture about this year's team was the excellent team-play and the fact that everybody on the squad was a scoring threat.

Pre-Induction military drill is a requirement tor every boy who has reached his sixteenth birthday. Mr. l-loeppner is the commanding otticer. Lu K. . .-.. Sixty-three Spring Sports As our book will go to press beloqe we can report on any ot the spring sports, we can only olter a torecast ot our expectations. ln Volleyball Coach Aey expects scveral veterans back. Among these are Don Straight and Bill Barlow as spikers, Doug Ticknor and loe Catalano as setters, and Dick Eden who was a tirst team setter tor the past two years. The rest ot the varsity will consist ot Harry Szynski, Danny Formfinowicz, finthony Bennice, lce DelPopolo, Van Mile ler, Bruce Heukrath, Dave Watson, Henry Beiger, and Doug Simpson. All the prospects look good and point toward a successful season tor the Maroon and White. 'We are all hoping that Dunkirk will come through with another Chautauqua County Champion- ship. Coach Aey's volleyball teams have lost only one tournament since they were start- ed in l925. Colt and tennis are two ot the minor sports that Dunkirk High will compete in this year. Harry Szynski is probably one oi the iinest young golfers in Chautauqua County. He takes a great interest in the game, and spends most ot his spare time on the links. ln tennis, Earl Short is a letterman and a great threat to any competitor who might invade the Dunkirk courts. Ho is backed by Leonard Darbee, who has also proven his ability in this sport. These two sports are coached by Coach Hoeppner. The Girls' D Club Boot, Virginia Sclinabel, Phyllis Centner.
