MEMCRIES Cantata ....... 1-2-3-4 Intramural Basketball ..... 1-2-3-4 Holy Name .... 4 HERBERT KESSLER Herk St. Joseph He is not here to play, to dream, to drift, He has hard work to do, and loads to lift. Shun not the struggle-f-face it, 'tis God's gift. This quotation describes the kind of per- son Herk is, loyal, determined and generous. He is usually seen at bingo or in Matt Evan's Drug Store in Conemaugh Borough. Herbert is the bashful type, seldom seen in company with girls, save for the parties at C. H. S. His ambition is to own a bingo or to become choir master at St. Joseph's. Herk's hobby is story-telling. Good luck, Herk! ELEANOR KLEMAN El St. Patrick A friend-fthe link of llfc's chain that bears the greatest strain. Eleanor is one of the best-liked girls in the Senior class. As a Freshie, she brought honor to our class by winning an essay con- test. Her literary ability is surpassed, how- ever, by her athletic ability. She is a star basketeer on St. Anne's intramural team. For a few months we loslt Eleanor to Derry Town- ship, but true friendship made her decide to return to us. May her sparkling personality br ng her many new friends along with geat- est success.

An earnest student, Joe is one of our most deserving graduates. He always holds a democratic point of v ew and he has shown great talent as a debater. His stentorian voice in itself is convincing, and many an op- ponent has quailed before it. He does indeed speak with authority. Joe has been generous in giving his time to extra-curricular activi- ties,a fact which reflects his infterest in and loyalty to Cathol'c High. Joe has ambitions of the highest. May Providence help him to fulfill them. GRACE KNOBLOCK Gracie Sacred Heart Wit makes its own welcome, and levels all distinctions. 'tGracie, one of the live wires of the Senior Class, is a representative of Sacred Heart Parish. Interested in aft school activities, cheerfully helping where help was needed, Grace has been a persistent booster. Her tid ness is symbolic of her future career, as a beautician. Grace is interested not only in external beauty, for she knows that the source of true beauty is from within. She has a smile for everyone, a Word of kindness for all--two .things which keep the wheels of lfe from creaking. Basketball ..... 2-3-4, Operetta ...... Poster Contest. 1 T. K. B.

Her voice is thin, but decidedly pleasant. She al- ways has a smile for everyone. She is easy to get along with and ready to help anyone who might ask a favor of her. If anyone looked for Betty during lunch hour she was usually to be found in the cloak-room comb- ing her hair. Her ambition is to become some- one's bookkeeper.

Mission Representative 3 ROBERT KARCHER Bob Visitation A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Bob may be remembered for hfs active participation in the musical programs of Catholic High. Most of his time is taken up by music which makes him seem to be a mus'cal addict, He does take an active in- terest in intramural sports and is unfailingly present to represent his home room. Bob also has a habit of coining new phrases and words with which he likes to tag his fellow students. Twenty-four with a scholastic standing as high as that attained by Betty June. Like most brilliant students, June is a witty conversationalist. Her lovable, delghtful, and Winsome ways radiate a pleasant personality. Her bewitch- ingly black hair adds to her attractive ap- pearance, especially while performing as one of our smart-stepping majorettes. In spite of the fact that June left us at the end of the first semester io begin her work at college, she will always roman in the foreground of our memories. Christmas Play ,... 4 ROBERT KENNEDY Bob St. John Gaulhert Endeavoring to describe him, we call him great. Although Bob came to Catholic High in September of his senior year, and remained only for the first semester, when he entered college, he had time to make for himself a niche in our gallery of memories. As Mayor of a little town in Normandy in the Christ- mas play, he gave a good portrayal of a self- important personage. Bob was quite a mu- sician, organizing a sw'ng band from mem- bers of the orchestra. We were sorry to sec him go, yet we were sure that he would do just as well in college as he did in high school.

MEMORIES JOHN KRISTOFKO John St. Patrick t'Still water runs deep. One takes a liking to John the first time one meets him. We never hear much about what he is doing, but we know he is a real sport and always ready to do someone a good turn. He has excellent school spirit and takes part in many actvities of the school. His am- bition is to become a Flying Cadet. To sum up all of this, we can truthfully say that John is a millionaire of excellent character. Intramural . . . . .1-2 LEONARD KUBINSKY KilleI ' St. Stephen It is more blessed to give than to receive. In his four years with us Leonard has al- ways been a friend to all of us. One of his outstandng traits is to help others. Interest in mathematics has made him one of the class leaders in this subject. He also proved himself to be an admirer of Virgil by this ex- cellent translation of his works. Leonard is usually seen dr.ving his blue Chevvie back an gl forth to school. To this amazing character we wish all the luck that is necessary for suc- cess in the world. Holy Name .. 4 C. s.M.c.... ...1-4 . ggi-C-'-- 1231 S. C.

Cutie has a grand personality with a ready smile for each and everyone. She likes to have fun and enjoy herself as we have no- tced throughout her four years at Catholic High. She has always offered her candid opinion, especially when she was asked a question and has very generously offered sug- gestions. If she made a mistake, she took the correction with a smile and a resolution to do better. We will always remember Jean as a good sport and studentfa loyal friend of Catholic High. Our Lady of Mercy '4She must be seen to be appreciated. Petite but powerful perhaps best describes Irene. Her winning smile and red hair, set off by her Irish eyes, are welcomed in any crowd. A talkative little minx who finds laughter in almost any thing, but when the time to be serious approaches, Irene excels in seriousness, too. We will always remember Irene for her ability to make any class in which she was present alive and excited. Twenty-sin'
