SENIORS OF 1055 - This Commencement marks a turning point in your living. For twelve years you have been in school as a student. You have had the guidance of teachers and administrators dur- ing these years. Your school, the organization of which you have been an active member, has set standards, regulations and provided activities for your welfare. Now you are adults. You will be so considered by the public. You willbe competing with other adults for the things you wish to have and for your accomplishments. Opportunity before you is unlimited. You will limit your chances of success and recognition only to the degree that you are not willing to work. Your personality can be your best calling card. You will find that you must influence people if you are to achieve anything in life. Howpeople regard and respect you will be a clear reflection of your own self respect. In adult life competition is strong. In this competition may I suggest tU that you make a definite choice of values or objectives, LU that you think clearly, Bi that you cherish the help others unselfishly give Mi that you give your best, unselfishly to whatever you do, and CH that you develop a deep and abiding faith in God - one you can implement into practice each day. We feelthat you have made a definite contribution during your years here to making our schools better. You have left records that will challenge our present and future stu- dent body. Make this year and thisC ommencement one of great joy to you and your friends. The Board ofEducation,the faculty, and I are most happy for this great moment of achievement in your life. We wish you much success. Ralph S Lanham. Superintendent Faculty Principal Dean of Girls R M. MEEHAN RUTH WIsMAN B. 5. Youngstown Col- English, Psychology, legs, M,A.

WWW Good evening ladies and gentlemen. This is your good neighbor station W, H. H. S. bringing you the eleventh hour news hot off the wires in our W. H. H. S. newsroom. Since the seniors of 1955 from Harbor High School have been making the headlines, tonight we have a special report on how they all have survived in this atomic era. First we shall take up some of the more serious of their achievements. After graduating from Alliance College with a Ph. D. majoring in physics and advanced mathematics, Francis DeGennaro is now revising Einstein's Theory of Relativity. In the field of literature we find that Clyde Koski has written a book entitled My Trials in the Pit. To date a million copies have been sold. J. E. tMaen- pa, that isi is reported to have bought ten copies, since the book was dedicated to him. J. E. is also proud of Gerald Bordeaux, who is editor of the NEW YORK HERALD. Gerald enjoys writing editorials on the work of his old classmate, William Stegall, who is the 38th President of the United States. He was elected on the Democratic ticket. We have an idea that he had some help from the multi- millionaire stockbroker, Bill Smith, of Wall Street. We are sorry to say that some have failed to uphold the high standards of the class of'55. Among these we find Robert Cronquist, WHO is compiling notes for a book about his experiences in the Siberian salt mines. Tom Watts was recently brought to trial for siphoning gasoline from a local service station. He was given two years at hard labor despite the competent efforts of his famous criminal lawyer, Jane Koski. Flash--A bulletin has just come through the Teletype in our newsroom here at W. H. H. S. Michael Kaihlanen is wanted by the F. B. I. dead or alive. If found dead, please apply moistened postage stamp and address to: Mr. Charles Altonen, Head Embalmer, Peabody Funeral Home, Chicago, Ill. Thank you. Those of you who do not have a postage stamp handy immediately contact Miss Mary Jo O'Connor, head postage stamp licker at the Harbor Pony Express. Also in the postal business we find JoAnn Jeffers, head postmistress in Kings- Ville. There are also a number of specialists in this class. Among them is Vicki Kinnunen, head fish cleaner at Lake Erie Fish Company. Bette Mackey is in charge of lifting the Harbor lift bridge when it gets stuck. Carol Dean has reached her goal in journalism, as she writes the obituary column for the STAR BEACON. iTurning to another fieldi On Carpenter Rd. we find Dick Hill and John Sand- berg, co-owners of a. huge three-acre farm. They have taken in two jobless farmhands, Katy Beckwith and Kathy Lackson. These girls were willing to work for practically nothing because they just love. . .farming. Also working for practically nothing are Mary Ann Gustafson and Connie Cafaro, garbage collectors, under the able direction of Ernest Hewins, Com- missioner of Sanitation. In the driver's seat ofherglistening white truck we spy Janet Millberg, who has finally made it after taking the truck driver's test 23 times. WalterSchramm, following in the somewhat damp footsteps of Ed Norton of the Jackie Gleason Show, is the sewer cleaner for the Division of Public Works. Assistant to the assistant's assistant at the Unemployment Bureau is Boneita Perskari. We always knew she would make good. In the Harbor territory NiCkCeverais the proprietor of the Golden Bubble night club on Morton Drive. The bouncer there is Nancy Kissack. The new owner of the Harbor Billiards is Rita. McGranahan. Now a couple of words from our sponsor, John Annala, owner of the Gung Ho Chinese Restaurant, 2345 Main Ave., the place where all good Finns con- gregate. Tea, anyone ? Still scanning the local news we find Deanna Floor operating an up and com- ing business. She has taken over the popcorn stand on the corner of North Park. One of her steady customers is Raymond Nurminen, who after a long and sad experience, is now the president of the Ashtabula Alcoholics Anonymous Club. Now moving to the lakefront news, at Billow Beach we find tall, blonde Mar- vis Esko as a cigarette girl. Out at Geneva-on-the-Lake Helmer Krans has opened his new, modern es- tablishment, He1mer's Pizza Palace. His next-door neighbors are Jim Huhta and Tom Mattern, who run a burlesque show there. A little farther afield but in the same line Elaine and Eleanor Lehtinen are running a hot dog stand at Coney Island. Ted Peterson drops in occasionally on his time off. He is a. lighthouse keeper in Newfoundland. The class of '55 has also been outstanding in the field of entertainment. We are most pleased with the accomplishments of Robert McNutt and Barbara Phil- lips, who open their season tomorrow night at the Metropolitan Opera House. JoAnn Carle is also proud of her husband as they are both proud of their six children. Donna McCormickis now the conductor of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. Also in the musical field we discover Linda Johnson, head castanet polisher for XavierCugat's Latin American Band. Dancing to the rhythm of her castanets, Susan Hartman and Joanne Koskiare mambo instructors at the Arthur Murray Studios. Just think, George Schlieper might not have learned to mambo without them. tTo turn to the lighter sidei The Circus is in town. Barnum and Bailey are indebted to the class of'55 for the invaluable services of Timothy Behrendt and Jack Lundi in starclown billing. Starting as a 97-pound weakling, Bill Nieminen has finally progressed to the position of strong man of Barnum and Bailey. Jim Myers has been touring the night club circuit with his Chorus Beauties, among whom we find Betty Pananen Alley, Juanita Shick, Bernadette Santill, and Betty Conklin. Robert Sidbeck enters the home of millions of Americans every Saturday afternoon as the television star of The Pecos Kid. And a special favorite among Ashtabulans is Paul Carpenter, who can be seen every Pabst Blue Rib- bon fight night. He is the bartender. tNow for a change of scenesi In California Eva von Fielitz has recently re- ceived her seventh Oscar for her outstanding portrayal of Ellie May in Metro- Goldwyn Meyer's production of Y'Tobacco Road Two popularHollywood stars who recently completed amovie entitled Tor- tured Love are Celeste Rinto and Richard Davis. At last Lois Lehtinen has finally reached her goal in life and is now Mrs. Liberace. Headlined in the sports field we find that Eleanor Meyers and Kathyrn Dox- sie have recently conquered the world's highest mountain, Bunker Hill. This year's Mr. America contest, we are proud to report, was won by James Atzemis, and the Miss America crown was captured by Patricia Matha. Ernest Thomas has taken over Goose Tatum's position with the Harlem 27 Globetrotters. As a unanimous Choice for fullback in tho All-Amcrican nominations we have another outstanding athlete, Myrna Christensen. In the fight game Karin Haapala is a ranking contender for the heavy-weight championship of the world. Not many Ashtabulans know that Patricia Bruckmdn is wrestling under the name of Molly the Maillor. When last heard from George Johnson was guiding Albert Johnson and Jack Zeigler on their satari through the jungles Of darkest Africa. Coming back into Civilization, it is evident that the Harbor faculty has been greatly modified during the ten year interim since this class graduated. Be- cause of his excellent command of English, Stanley Giddings is now the head of the English Department. Also in the dear old halls we find Kenneth Swanson, Dean of Girls; Lorene Johnson, janitor; Janet Laatu, head basketball coach; Freicla Brunell, Shop Teacher; and Judy Lamb, Bus Driver. Last but not least, Diana Laird and Bernie Haytchcr have finally tied the nuptial knot. And there you have it folks, as up to the minute resume of the accomplish- ments of the Senior Class of 1955. Glad we could get together folks. This is Jack Kamgas signing off. In September, 1942 we present seniors entered the bleak and unfamiliar kindergarten room of Washington School, which is part of the Harbor Special Schools system. Each morning our mothers kissed us fondly and, in parting, gave us explicit instructions on correct behavior, On that eventful day we be- gan an exciting thirteen-yearpilgrimage through the halls of learning. Soon we were all friends and were taking orders quite well from Miss Tilton and her talking piano. With loving patience she taught us how to write our names, tell time, and tie our own shoes. This year we had the honor of portraying circus animals in the annual entertainment. When we progressed to first grade, we were divided between the Jackson and Washington Schools, at which time the great rivalry tHarvard--Yale stylet of the two schools began. Secondgrade brought with it a wonderful project call- ed The Country Store which entailed empty food cans with labels from home. We must haved saved the city rubbish collectors quite a bit of work that year. As third graders we became aware of the opposite sex and several torrid love af- fairs developed, which, however, died as quickly as they had blossomed forth. Fourth grade was highlighted by the discovery in art and crafts classes of our future artists, architects, and engineers. When we became big fifth graders, our boys went forth to play the manly art of ball,and we had a number of games between Jackson and Washington. We never did find out which school was bet- ter. Having reached the status of sixth graders,we were saddened by the loss of our beloved Dr. W. E. Wenner, who died at the Cleveland Clinic on January 13, 1949. We heard Harbor's carillonic bells sounded for the first time on January 17 at his funeral services. Soon the last year drew to a close, and we received our cards bearing the proud words promoted to seventh grade . Then we had a real Commencement and were awarded diplomas. At last we were ready for high school! Our first fewweeks in the high school were marked by utter confusion. More than once we managed to get lostwhile changing classes, and we were inevitably caught by Mrs. Eddy as we climbed with out armloads of books up the wrong stairs. In eighth grade we had the unforgettable Octcupations with Mrs. Cas- bourne, not to mention some very memorable hayrides. During the ninth grade the pupils from Mother of Sorrows joined us. Our Latin and Spanish students, despite their misgivings, really did make it through the First Year courses, and were on hand to take part in and to see the gala Latin Banquet held in the 01d gym. Murder in the Family was the name of the sophomore class play which we put on as part of the annual Mariner Varieties . We were proud of the boys in our class who had made the varsity football and basketball teams. As juniors we worked very, very hard to give the seniors a nice Prom. We presented the play Rebecca , sold sweatshirts, and finally put up the several million miles of crepe paper required to transform the gym into a beautiful ballroom. This was also the year we received our class rings. As seniors we are looking forward to our next milestone, Commencement. We wish our teachers to know that our appreciation of their friendship and guidance extends beyond mere words. They have been a great part of our lives. The last moments of the Thirteenth year are fast fleeting and we use them to say, God bless us, every one.

The Student Council is a newly formed or- ganization this year. During its first year of organization the council has launched and ac- complished a number of things. Committees have been formed to issue char- ters to organizations, review and hire the paid assemblies for the coming year, and to plan this year's Thursday afternoon assemblies. A moni- tor service has been started in the lower hall in orderto guide and direct visitors and parents to the proper offices. It is hoped that in the future the council will be able to give increasing assistance in the managing of student affairs and will truly rep- resent the student body.

Reider, consists of sixty-one students selected from grades ten, eleven, and twelve. This is the performance group of the choral music department and mem- bership in this group is the highest distinction of this department. The choir has presented exchange concerts with Conneaut, Jefferson, Ashtabula, and Edgewood. Besides these performances, the choir present- ed selections at the Christmas Meditation, Exchange Club, Rotary C1ub,Elks Memorial Service, Carlisles, the Variety Show, and our annual Spring Con- cert. The choir also made several T. V. appearances during the Christmas season. The officers for this year were: Michael Kaihlanen, president; Jim Huh- ta, vice-president; Jane Koski, secretary; and Judy Lamb, librarian. The accompanists were Lois Lehtinen and Marvis Esko. l. to L: Eleanor Lehtinen. Carol Acierno, Marvis Esko. Mary Lois Lindenmeyer, Karen Knudsen. Retiring fromtheir majorette duties this year are Marvis Esko, head major- ette, and Ele ano r Lehtinen. Carol Acierno and Mary Lindenmeyer have two years to complete and Karen Knudsen, three years. Our majorettes have been busy all year. Early in the summer they began to work on their routines for the 1954 football season. Among the many routines they presented during the half-time shows were a. military drill, a western rou- tine, and a square dance routine. Their work didn't end at the close of the football season because they had to keep in pra C tic e for the Variety Show. They presented a delightful Spanish number to the song, Bongo Guitar, and another routine with lighted batons. As always before, they will lead the band in the carnival parade. oW Yawef; 25 , .3? Many months ofhard planning and work by the junior class and their adviser, Mr. Norbert Soltys, made the 1954 Jr.-Sr. Prom one of the finest Harbor High has ever had. Robert McNutt, junior class president, acted as master of ceremonies at the banquet,which was held at the Swallowsala. Richard H111, junior class vice- president, read the Class Prophecy and was followed by James Laird, senior class president, who read the seniors' Last Will and Testament. Presenting tokens of appreciation to their advisers, Diana Laird and David Kotila gave gifts to Mr. Norbert Soltys, junior class adviser and Mr. Harold Caylor, senior class adviser. Following this everyone enjoyed the dance held in Fawcett Gymnasium. It was beautifully decorated with a false ceiling of stars and crepe paper. Indi- vidual tables, with a lighted candle on each, were grouped in cabaret style a- round the edge of the dance floor. Ray Jangels provided the music for danc- mg. Parents of the junior Class members joined together to put on an afterprom party and breakfast from 12:30 to 4:30 A.M. Entertainment was provided by Bob Forrester and Nick Mahalick. Later the Dean Goodell orchestra provided music for dancing. A special thanks should be given to all the junior Class parents who helped to make a success of the whole affair.

The Harbor Mariner football team had a winning season, as they won four games and lost three. They finished second in the WRL with a 3-1 record. Harbor started the season by playing Painesville Riverside in a preview game at Conneaut. The two evenly matched teams battled their way to a 6-6 tie. The Se amen journeyed to Jefferson to play their first WRL football game. Despite their early lead, Harbor lost to the Falcons 20-13. The following week Conneaut defeated the visiting Mariners 32-12. The Mariners, playing their first game at home, were defeated by the Fair- port Skippers 34-14. The bright spot in the game came in the last quarter when Co-captain Tim Behrendt raced 67 yards for a touchdown. In the annual Golden Anchor game at Wenner Field, Harbor got the Golden AnchorH back as they defeated Edgewood in a thrilling game. The Mariners were on the short end of a 13-7 score with on- ly a couple minutes left in the game. JackLundi threw a 16 yard pass to Bob McNutt who fell into the end zone for a touchdown. Joe Pinney kicked the extra point and Harbor won the game 14-13. The Perry Pirates invaded Wenner Field and were d e fe ate d by a fighting M a r i ne r squad. Harbor rallied in the second half to win the game 32-20. Spencer was Harbor's third WRL victim as the Mariners won 51-6. The Mariners had to come from behind to defeat Geneva 26-19. Genevaheld a 12 point lead midway in the third quarter when Harbor finally came to life and pushed over three quick touchdowns.

MI. Norbert Soltys and Mr. Elmer Gray study the strategy of a forthcoming game. The Mariner quintet had a successful season as they finished with more games won than lost. The Seamen won the WesternReserve Leaguecrown their first season in the league by compiling a perfect record of eight wins and no defeats. Seniors Clyde Koski, Bob Sidbeck, and Bob McNutt, together with juniors Don Jones and Keith McCullough, rounded out the usual starting five for Coach Elmer Gray. Senior Ken Swanson and junior Joe Pinney helped to back up the team when the going was rough. Clyde Koski was the leading scorer of the team as he held a fourteen point average throughout the season and finished near the top in Western Reserve League scoring. Coach Norb Solty's reserve team had a very fine season as they lost only a few of their ballgames. Bob Lampela, Dick Johnson, and Dick Macaro led a strong, welI-balanced group of ballplayers who played fine ball throughout the season. 1 1' I , ' i e Mi- , . . .0 Ten returning lettermen, Francis DeGennaro, Keith McCullough, Ken Swanson, Jim Gray, Pete Hewins, Joe Pinney, Henry Rossi, Dick John- son,Bob Sidbeck, and Tim Behrendt, will form the nucleus of Coach El- mer Grays' 1955 track team.

Frederick Dr. Carl PHII'SUH II-mxae The Last Will and Testament Be it known: That we the members of the Class of '55, graduates of the Harbor HighSchool, City of Ashtabula, county of Ashtabula, state of Ohio, United States of America, on the second day of June, nineteen hundred and fitty-five so as to benefit civilization and to endear our names to the human race, do construct, formulate, and swear to this d0cument--our last will and testament, disposing of the herein-stated articles in due and proper order. Item first--It is our wish that our past mistakes and errors be forgiven and forgotten publicly by our pedagogues and fellow students, before any em- balming be done on our persons. Item second--To the juniors we bequeath our choice seats in assembly. We lend for masticatory exercise, between or during periods, all of those ge- latinous coagulations adhering in more or less hardened form to all seats occupied by us in study hall and assembly, consisting mainly of juicy fruit and dentyne. We request only that after each indulgence in said exercise thatthey be carefully replaced for the future enjoyment of the undergraduates. Item third--We bequeath: To Supt. Lanham a pair of gold plated Wiss scissors and a fully paid three- week summer course in Advanced Paper Doll Cutting at M.I.T. To Mr. Meehan, our beloved principal, we express our gratitude and leave ayear's supply of Du11-O pencils in order that he may write out those re- leases tcalled passesi which gave our mighty hunters the right to go forth and seek wild life tthe four legged kindt and give the pained souls of Harbor their semi-annual time off so that they might visit their re spective dentists. Tolessen the amount of energy that he must expend at each as sembly period, we also leave hima collection of records setting forth the various complaints he has to make of our behavior. To Mr. Fawcett, sure as the Lord made little green apples, we present this fine Scotch-Irishmana round trip ticket to Hawaii in order that he may spread his 'lwords of wisdomH to the tune ofwhirling hula skirts as he romps through the roaring surf. T0 Norby, our illustrious class advisor for the past two years, who guided us through our many ventures such as penny-a-day, school daze, mums, and sweat shirts, we bequeath a pig skin inflated with enthusiasm and thanks and abox of ulcer pills to be used during next year's football season. The spon- sorship of future senior classes we leave to him, to dispose of as he sees fit. T0 the unheralded heroes, the keepers of the school, Kenny and George by name, we leave the dust from our illustrious feet. They also may consider themselves heirs to the chewing gum under the desks where we so diligently pursued our studies tnever catching up with them, howeveri.
