COMING EVENTS 1946-47 CHRO ICL'E Nancy September-We were only too glad to enter again the halls of Our Alma Mater after vacation. It seemed like old times for the upper classmen to direct the freshmen to the wrong stairways and classrooms. Our football assembly brought back Dick Mazuca, Bob Conk, and Frank Lojacano, Grover's former star football play- ers, each of whom gave encouragement to our team. October-Grover sponsored its annual class socials, with Mr. Cavalieri supervising the fun. To Ann Ceraulo and Tony Lopardi, winners of the jitterbug contest, Mr. Devine presented first prize. November-We were represented in the finals at Hutchinson Central High School by Catherine Natoli, who won first place in our declamation contest. Dr. Dorizas from the University of Pennsylvania, disclosed the critical situation in the Balkan area before a much-interested assembly. Everyone was amused as well as interested by the customs and costumes of the people of India. These were demonstrated to us by models and movies shown by Carolyn Maback and her assistant. While Hamlet was being dramatized in Buffalo, the stage manager of the production visited us to acquaint the student body with the historical and theatrical background of Shakespeare's work. December-The pupils were all left awed by the visit of Mr. Copeland. His dramatization of Caruso '47 along with the music of the orchestra, left us in a cheerful holiday spirit as we made our exit to begin a well-earned vacation. january-Slides were shown as a talk on seismology and earthquakes was delivered by a former classmate of Mr. Devine - Mr. McTigue, pro- fessor of physics at Canisius College. Also it was indeed a pleasure to have Miss jane Keeler of the Studio Theater and a former teacher at Grover Cleveland when it was the State Normal School, address us on her likes and dislikes about the youth of today. February-The Lincoln's Day program was taken over by Marie Rosso and Marilyn Neidriclfc of the junior Class, who did a splendid job On February 13 and 14 Almost Eighteen , our school production, played to a full house.

Mr. Bingham of the His torical Society of Buffalo was another amongs' Grover's honored guests. Late in the montl came the interscholastic debates, Grover win ning on home ground. scenes from Macbeth , Julius Caesar , and Twelfth Night , with his quick change in expression and voice, made us even more Shakespeare-conscious. A lecture on sports, chiefly football, was given by the notable, Mr. Iggulden, who brought out the importance of having a doctor on the football field during a game. The Christmas holidays were upon us. The large Christmas tree was placed in the auditorium, and the carols of the chorus, APRIL 3-EASTER PROGRAM, MRS. RICA1-f AND CHORUS.
