tun r eufcrntc. T W Ellen Summers Frank Mladenik Victor Youngmark Albert Ulicni liary Janci Rec. Secretary Treasurer President Cor. Secretary Vice President In September, 1943, seventy-three of us freshmen first saw the light of day when we made our debut into Edison High School. Since that memorial time our activities have been reflected in the development of the school. In many departments--in music, both vocal and instrumental, in art, in ora- tory, and in athletics--our torch has really blazed. In the first year of our high school career we were victorious in the Lake-Porter Track Meet and also in the winning of first prize in the Squan- der Bug Poster contest. Our light burned brighter our Sophomore year as the Reserve basketball and track teams took Lake-Porter championships. Our flutist placed first in the second division of the Northern Indiana Music contest. Our torch really blazed in our Junior year: first prize in the Elk ' s Oractorical contest; first place for expert sewing in the Daughters of the American Revolution style show; and in the athletic department, city champs in Cross-country, Lake-Porter Basketball championship and, for the first time in our history, the. SECTIONALS. But, the light of glory was dimmed by the death of a member of the team, Chuck Thomas. As we played the part of dignified Seniors, our torch still burning brightly, our Cross-country team placed third in the state. This year we received highest honors in the Northern Indiana contest for excellent flute playing by one of our classmates. We, the class of 1947, feel that we have illuminated the pages of the school by these memorable events. We trust that Edison will continue to grow and to uphold her place among the best schools in Gary. Graduating with this class will be twenty-four veterans who have pass- ed the G. E. D. test. They are: Edward Beck, Harry Buikema , John Carr, James Cunningham, James Middle, Harvey Johnson, Cliston Jones, Billy Judis, William Kehoe, Frank Kralowetz, Dean Langel, Clarence Lowe, Kenneth Ludwig, Albert Massena, Von Edward Moore, Dorothy Olson, Fred Poettgen, Joseph Ra- man3k, Joseph Sajdera, Dwight Singer, Conrad Stolman, Walter Stotts, Alex Swierski, and Edward Tucker.
