MEMORIES Twenty-eight HELEN KORCHNAK “Corky” St. Stephen The quiet, pleasant but efficient manner with which Helen approaches her daily duties plus the loyalty which she shows to both the school and her friends mark her a young lady of high ideals. She is most happy when buried in the pages of a good book. “Corky’s” very reserved manner only convinces us that somewhere under the exterior there lies a heart of gold. Lots of luck “Corky” and don’t forget us. LAWRENCE LEAR “Larry” St. Patrick Larry hails from Moxham. His sturdy build gives him the appearance of an athlete. He’s in school every day, rain or shine, and he’s never late if he can help it. He is very popular and well-known in the school and on the premises thereabout. He is a mission representative and I might add that he is doing a very good job of it. He spends his evenings ice skating, roller skating and watch- ing basketball games.

He is fond of sports, especially football. His courage on the gridiron proved that Jack had plenty of that old fighting spirit of do or die for Catholic High. Jack boasts of descending from the great Polish race, which at the present time is found worthy to suffer so much for God. TERRY LEFFLER “Terry St. Patrick We are glad that Terry decided to receive his high school “sheep’s skin” from Catholic High. A twentieth century lad who, as the knights of old. has achieved noble conquests because of the inspiration of a “fair lady”. Although he received public recognition for the safe and sure driving, we know that he is secretly cherishing the desire of showing h:s “all-out-for-defense” by changing his place in a Chevrolet to the cockpit of any species of aircraft. Fly high, Terry!

Mort has them. Tom is widely known for his great sense of humor. He can make a joke out of the most serious or trivial thing. He has a fancy for getting some of the fellows “goats”. His thick curly hair and twinkling blue eyes make the hearts of many girls flutter. Now residing in Moxham. Mort is usually seen with his old Geistown gang. LEO KLUG “Smokey Leo” St. John Gaulbert A reliable and efficient manager is the coach's opinion of this young man who always knows the right time to be serious; and it is this knowledge that accounts for his credit- able scholastic record. Small, good-looking, and courteous. “Smokey” is liked by everyone. Rhythmical movements on the dance floor prove his preference for this type of recreation. JAMES KOENIG “Chink” St. Joseph “Chink” is an earnest worker and lives the principle “Honesty is the best policy . He is a good loser as well as a good winner. “Chink” enjoys sports and arguing. He devotes much of his time to baseball and basketball. He is an ardent fan of the Cincinnati Reds and de- fends them at all times. Here’s wishing lots of luck to you, “Chink”, when you take your place in the world’s affairs. ROBERT KOHLER “Pappy” St. Joseph “Pappy” was born in the citv but reared in the country. These two lines best describe “Pappy”, High in words, keen in mind. The world needs men of this kind.” His ambition is to be a florist.

We are proud to say that Ethelreda was our senior Sodality Promoter and she displayed splendid enthusiasm in this honored position. Ethelreda’s sole ambition is to become a nurse. May her hopes be realized ir. the very near future! RAYMOND LINTNER “Daisy Weed” St. Gregory Ray, never a quitter, hails from Daisytown. He doesn’t say much but what he does say is sharp, sensible and true to the point. Like all boys, he likes sports, especially basketball and baseball. He played on the intra-mural team of 200-A and his services proved quite valuable to his teammates. Ray dislikes being teased by his classmates about the girls. His chief ambition is to become an aviator—and who knows —maybe in the near future he will achieve his ambition. Sodality Promoter Prince Gallitzin Pageant Handmaid May Crowning Cantata .......

He is the quiet type of boy, but a deep thinker and a logical one. We have not the least inkling of his ambition, but we are sure his aspirations are high. He is the eighth member of his family to graduate from Catholic High. He is in reality in “love ’ with Virgil. Outside of school activities. John finds time to visit Moxham and Coopersdale. and also to razz Burns about his Ford. JOAN LITZINGER “Nonie” Visitation A charming bit of femininity and one of our outstanding students, in both scholastic and social fields, noted for her witticisms likeable personality and her touch of originality, which certainly can not be overlooked. “Nonie” has a deep appreciation for music, and for four years she made a harmonious contribution to the chool orchestra by the sweet notes of her violin. She finds sheer delight in reading the works of Lucille Borden—her favorite author. May the future hold for her the choicest of blessings!
