John Carroll High School - Green Leaves Yearbook (Birmingham, AL)

Text from Pages 1 - 78 of the 1949 volume:

DEDICATION With great honor and pride we dedicate this Annual to our beloved Principal, Father Frederick O. Hughes. Father Hughes has not only established himself as an outstanding counselor, organizer, and teacher, but he has given most generously of himself, instilling his high ideals of loyalty and Christian principles into the hearts of young men and women coming under his influence daily. His kindly spirit of goodwill and cordial interest in all matters pertaining to higher learning and sportsmanship will serve as a guiding light to more worthy goals. It will give us a deeper understanding of all things that are noble and true in life. May this dedication serve. Father Hughes, as a very deep and sincere “thank you” from the Class of 1949. + REVEREND FREDERICK O. HUGHES 5 HIS EXCELLENCY. THE MOST REVEREND THOMAS J. TOOLEN. D.D..

We all waited on the threshold of the new John Carroll High School to begin a life as new as the building in which it was to take place. But the building was far from complete and confusion reigned supreme. This subject, however, hardly needs to be elaborated on; everyone is thoroughly familiar with the trials and tribulations of trying to absorb ‘‘book-learning with so many interruptions by the workers. Written very boldly in the book of memories is the election of officers who were to lead us during our Junior year. Officers were: Bill Zarzaur. president; Curtis Parks, vice-president; Marie Carbonie. secretary; and Nancy Hanby. treasurer. Mary Catherine McArdle. Florence Naughton, Alice Doyle and Joe Craffo waged a mighty battle to gain a knowledge of Spanish while Mary Ann Salerno. Bernadette Little and Sue Cash delved into the unknown and began shorthand Some of the more illustrious typing students were Joe Boohaker. Bobby Bradley and Ed Mizerany. We were also very active then, as now. in the field of journalism, being represented on the Cavalier staff by Nancy Hanby. who was editor. George Mickwee. Janet Kruckleberg and Jack Deas Representative on the Junior Town Meeting from our class that year was Nancy Hanby. The Youth Council in 1948 was headed by Nancy and Bill Zarzaur was vice-president. Friday night dances and the outing to Queenstown were only two of the many activities which were planned by this organization By this time the question of who would serve as officers during the Senior year had passed the discussion and campaign stages and Jack Deas. without further ado. was elected president. Other officers are Mary Claire Burke, vice-president; Margaret Foster, secretary, and Tommy Thornton, treasurer. At the Junior-Senior Prom our class officers made a wonderful showing in the lead-out for the Junior Class. As September. 1948. rolled around we found we had reached the goal we had strived for so long: we were seniors. New additions to the class were Paul Shields. Jean Dewitt. Joyce Holden. Mike Gallagher, and Carolyn Jackson. Sociology and physics proved to us that our senior year, glorious as it may be. would have its rough spots. Senior Cheerleaders who now so proudly wear their letters were Dot DePiano, Mary Scozzaro. Alice Doyle. Betty Ann Casmus. Mary Catherine Swift. Frances Caterinichia, Marie Carbonie, Curtis Parks and Bobby Bradley. After the football game with St. Bernard which ended our season in a blaze of glory, we went to a dance that night and saw Joe Rookis and Nancy Hanby crowned King and Queen of School Spirit. For a week they were the sovereigns of Carroll. Our representatives on the local papers were Alice Doyle, for Tab, Margaret Moore, for the Birmingham Post. Eloise Lyle, for the Catholic Week. Mary Claire Burke and Nancy Hanby. for the Birmingham News. Joe Azbik covered sports. Margaret Moore glowed with pride, and so did we. when she won a wrist-watch in a country-wide editorial contest. . Some of the parties we look back on are the Christmas party, the Valentine party, and Talent Night. Another big event was the Youth Groups Convention at which we were host. But enough of looking back; now we must look forward. But we will always have these memories with us. helping us over the rough spots, as we travel to our future. Margaret Foster. Class Historian. 30 HERE'S 10 YOU We. the Class of 49. publishing and declaring this, our last will and testament, do hereby bequeath: To John Carroll High School, our golden dreams, along with happy dreams of our patient and loving faculty: frantic scenes in the pressroom t efore a deadline: peaceful visits to the chapel, and those disastrous, but imperative, jaunts across the lawn. Father Hughes receives the wish that his office hours will be quieter and more peaceful without the Class of ‘49. To “His Eminence Father Keating, we leave the Red Hat of his high and stately office. Thanks to Father Brunson for saving the day for the seniors so many, many times. We leave Father Sadler the seniors’ undying appreciation for no examinations. To Sister Francesca, a more literary literature class, and a less social sociology class. Many thanks to Sister Isabel from the Class of '49 for her ceaseless patience. The fines which the seniors failed to pay on overdue books are justly willed to Sister Angela. Sister Mildred receives a type of friendship which can never be erased. To Coach Cummins, el compeom equipo. The 1950 Annual Staff is bequeathed the corner cell at Brice’s Hospital in Tuscaloosa. Sister Mary Catherine is left with the hope that the new neighEx rs will be quieter. The wish that there will be more vocations in the Our Lady of Good Counsel Club is left to Sister Eulalia. To Sister Maureen: The roof that we failed to blow off. Sister Mary Leo receives many more Happy Birthdays. Lots of steel wool is bequeathed to Sister Dorothy to clean the pots that the Senior girls burned. An African violet of the rarest species is willed to Sister Felicitas. To Sister Alphonsa we leave a thriving candy business. We will a baby grand piano to Sister Benedicta. The seniors leave the pressroom to the new Cavalier Staff. We leave to the football team the hope that all the games will be victorious. A year as carefree and as filled with happy memories as ours has E een we bequeath to the Junior Class We will the annual argument with the Senior Class over the prom to the Sophomores. As quiet and uneventful year as every second year of high school always is. we leave to the Freshmen. And now we leave.......... 31 NAME HALO FAVORITE SONG PET PEEVE WEAKNESS FADWA ADREV Coquettish Stardust Conceited People Dancing ANNA MARIE ALFANO Practical Jealousy A Showoff Maroon Convertible BETTY ATTAWAY Earnest Hoping You'll Sneering People Be There Boys JOE AZBIK Cute That Certain Basketball Party Girls JOSEPH BOOKAKER Pompous Marie Wet Doughnuts Doughnuts PAT BOWERS Positive After Graduation Exams Day Mary Claire Burke BOBBY BRADLEY Jovial Dardcnella Work Money MARY C.

Funds for this undertaking, as yet covered so that eager eyes may not see them until the appointed time, were raised by the members of the Senior Class of 1949. This stupendous undertaking was conceived by the treasurer of our old class. Tom Thornton, now president of the First National Bank of Birmingham. His assistants in this campaign were Morris Schiffman. new owner of the old Pizitz, still the best department store in Alabama, and your scribe. Jack Deas On hand to cover the activities of the day by word and picture are Nancy Hanby. editor of LIFE magazine, and her ace photographer, Mike Gallagher. All top news correspondents are present also, including Eloisc Lyle of the NEW YORK TIMES, competing with Alice Doyle, editor of TAB. for the best story. The designing of this still unseen spectacle was done by Bill Zarzaur and Bob Bradley, two of the South’s best cycloramists in the profession. Kerkhof Engineering was called in to do the construction. Now the crowd is gathered and all are anxiously awaiting the unveiling. By the way. it just happens that Joe Graffo. of Shades Mountain Awning and Tent Works, was kind enough to secure for us enough tarpaulin to keep the huge figures under cover. You know that if it happened to rain today the lovely patina of the metal would be temporarily marred, but of course it wont rain because the weather man. Ed Roberts, predicted a warm, sunny day. And now as everyone is beginning to quiet down, we see George Mick-wee pulling the rest of his hair out because the mikes aren't all set up yet. Of course none other than George could be emcee for this dedication. Within the last few years he has been made program director of C B S. Some of the dignitaries on the platform are Father Hughes, the first principal of John Carroll, who set aside his duties as president of the Carroll Technological Institute in America to come to the exercises today Cardinal Keating, who is now Papal Nuncio to the United States, has come to see his boys immortalized. There is Father Laguaite. the present principal of the school, jovially greeting Mayor Louis Rookis and John Ramsey, professor of Science at Pennsylvania. Les Rogers, as a present trustee of the school, stands to introduce the electronic speaker. Professor Ramsey. John tells us that in the science circles. Margaret Foster, one of the ten first ladies of science. Jim Doyle, wheel balancer at M.I.T., and Bob Crawford, foremost food scientist of California, often meet with him for important conferences. We are sorry these other three are not with us today. At this point the program is interrupted by a messenger boy — we see Les Rogers accept the telegrams and relay their contents to us. One is from Betty Casmus Gadilhe. now living in the Hawaiian Islands, too busy with her young family to attend the reunion today. Another from Margaret Moore, enjoying the quietude of a mountain retreat where she is finishing the writing of the tenth book. Still another telegram, the most unusual of all. is from Paul Shields, sent from Gold Bank. Alaska. He stated that he. Claude Ruffino, Jim Resha and Jim Likis. are founders of this new town. It came about when Paul, on a hunting trip in Alaska, ran across the rich strike of gold and immediately sent for his old Cavalier friends. Claude's job is to import men in numbers great enough to work the rich ore before the Russians hear about it. Jim Resha is in charge of operation Vittles and Likis keeps the population entertained and skinned at the Casino.'' You'd never know by the way Father Hughes takes over the dedication, that he was one bit older than when we left him at John Carroll in '49. As his solemn words issue forth, the huge figures are unveiled Such awe and silence! Such magnificence — we behold in high relief — the line-up of the famous Carroll team of '49 with Big Ed Mizerany. center, captain, and 34 mi it so Karl Portera. right guard, co-captain. Joe Finocchio. left guard; Lester Rogers and Morris Schiffman. tackles; Don Laguaite and Bill Zarzaur. ends; Claude Ruffino and Paul Kerkhof. fullbacks; and Joe Azbik and Joe Rookis. halfbacks. After this wonderful exhibition, we are all invited to meet on the elevated campus of John Carroll for refreshments. When we arrive, the tempt-� ing, lovely food we find is prepared under the direction of Jane Holden and Anna Marie Alfano of Kateress Inkorporated Some of those assisting, present members of P.T.A., are Jean DeWitt. Martha Jones. Bernadette Little. Mary Scazzaro. and Mary Ann Wyatt. Most of us. having traveled far. are really appreciative of the delicious brand of Porky Pig meats served from Powell's Provisions. An interesting entertainment of the lighter vein has been planned As we cheerfully greet our old friends we are thrilled at the cleverness of Joe Azbik in his variety program. There is a tall brunette assisting at the piano; it is difficult to recognize her. That tone, that rhythm, that tempo — so reminiscent — but who is it? Someone whispers Claire Scalise! Now. Marie Driscoll entertains us in her Ethel Smith manner followed by Norma Lee Courie in a tap dance number. We hear the buzz of a helicopter; a crowd gathers as it lands on the roof of the biology lab. Out steps Eugene Cant, the handsomest actor of the screen, the Howard Hughes of Hollywood. Of course his two companions are none other than Sue Cash, best dressed lady in America, and Fadwa Adrey. her dress designer , They tell us they have just left Bowers at the jet-port in Chicago, ready to take off for South America in the interest of his National Air Lines. With him go Joe Rookis. candidate for Vice-President of the United States on a ticket with Jim Folsom I Big Jim and Little Joe). Also as passengers in Pat’s plane are Mary Louise Fcrlisi. Secretary of Labor, and Mary Sullivan, commentator, to report on their tour, and Marie Carbonie. secretary TO Pat. They have a large box of donuts stowed away to eat while in South America, donuts by Boohaker Bakery, Chicago, still the best on the market. Leo Stack comes into view; he is a new Rudolf Valentino of the screen. As we roam from building to building on the campus, we talk with Frances Caterinchia. who is home resting from a strenuous lecture tour on psychology. She reports that while in New York she saw Mary Catherine McArdle in a revival of Oklahoma. Also, playing with Ringling Brothers at Madison Square Carden, the famous impresario. Curtis Parks, is found each season. Dot DePiano had just left Miami for her resort in Sweden. She was an Olympic champion of the year before. Florence Naughton is having a successful career as a singer on the Paris stage. Frances tells us the most popular sister and brother team is Harry and Ann Wheelock, in a dance routine. We are happy to see Jean Hatem. the Judy Canova of television, just arriving from Hollywood. Margaret Hudson. Powers model and petite Janet Kruckeberg, consumer advisor for Lord Taylor, both have been living in New York for some time They told us Carolyn Jackson's dress designs are the most popular at the winter resorts. Judge Simonetti. most popular at the Jefferson County Court House, greeted us with cheer, and we envy those who still call Birmingham their home. Among those are Mary Claire Burke, owner of her own interior decorating shop; Mary Ann Salerno, head nurse at the new modern Saint Vincent's Hospital, and Ora Lee McGowan, leading Catholic laywoman. who has worked tirelessly for the Good Counsel Clubs in the Diocese of Mobile. Mary Sheldt has just finished the first edition of her book on etiquette whidh we hear will be a modern version of Emily Post’s book Jean Scozzaro and Catherine Swift are owners of an exclusive woman’s shop on Twentieth street. Now as the shades of night fall across the campus of John Carroll, we bid farewell to our old classmates, knowing that in spirit we have really faced the world together. 35 . AREL I. 0AHAKEL V.
