WH€R£ THERE IS HATRED CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL JOHNSTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA FOREWORD: The price of selfishness is loneliness, and the reward of giving oneself in love is happiness. Man was made to love, to be all and do all not for himself but for another.. Saint Francis has shown what Other we are to love. He emptied himself into God and the service of his neighbor. As he smiled back on this world of light and color and life, Saint Francis was a happy man. 1'his secret of happiness born of love is the possession of the students of Catholic High. They have been taught that the enemy is selfishness. By as much as they lead selfless lives, by that much the world will be a less lonely place.

Where there is hatred—let me sow love, Where there is injury—pardon, Where there is doubt—faith, Where there is despair—hope, Where there is darkness—light, Where there is sadness—joy. MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU Truth lives, falsehood succumbs to time. Christ’s teach- ing of love of God and neighbor has spread the smile of saints and the followers of saints through the ages. Saint Francis lived the truth of Christ, and his “reli- gious” live it. They are blessed and happy, as they give rather than receive. Your faculty have given themselves to you. This is their life. It is their hope that they have deeply taught you the blessedness of giving. His Excellency, Bishop Richard T. Guilfoyle The Diocese of Altoona has been very fortunate in having as its bish- op, his Excellency, Bishop Richard T. Guilfoyle. Since 1936 his Ex- cellency has been the sincere and untiring guide of our spiritual and educational development. He will long be remembered not only as having confirmed us, but as having presented us with the long sought after and cherished diploma from Central Catholic High School. We are deeply grateful to our Bishop and will always remember him in prayer. May God bless him and may he be spared for many years to come to carry on his good work in behalf of all, especially his students. BISHOP OF ALTOONA 8 Because this message deals with one who is remembered for his simplic- ity, it shall be a simple message. Today we hear so much talk about how bad the world is—apparently it has never been so evil before— and particularly how wicked young people are. Now, we won’t argue about the degree of wickedness today as compared with past times; we shall simply say that there is a great deal of evil and sin in the world, but that such conditions are not new—there has been a great deal of corruption in the world at various past times, too. For example, the age of St. Francis was a time when people, es- pecially the young, had lost sight of the important things in order to run after the passing pleasures of this life. As a youth, Francis was no exception to this general trend. But, after his conversion, he saw clear- ly that only one thing mattered; nor was he content merely with amending his own life, but he also tried to bring the happiness of Christ’s Gospel to all. The message I give, then, is the lesson which St. Francis taught, not by w'ords, but by his life. Realize, above all, that the only really important thing in life is your eternal salvation. Then, having realized the happiness that a truly Christian life can bring, you will not be con- tent until you bring this joy to others. This is the message of St. Francis, the message of Christ: love of God and love of neighbor— true charity. PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Father Greinader, our principal, will ever be remem- bered by the students of Catholic High for his guid- ing hand and kind words. May we express our grati- tude by saying, “May God reward you, Father.” Father John Neugebauer Religion Father Faber J. Malloy Religion Typical of the large amounts of extra time given freely by the nuns at Catholic High, Sister Virginia mixes paints before classes. It goes without saying that the students appreciate the many sacrifices made by the sisters. These sacrifices will be remembered for many years. Sister Mary Cl aver, R.S.M. English, Science Sister M. Estelle, C.D.P. Social Studies, German Sister M. Ferdinand, R.S.M. Librarian FACULTY Father Kenneth Greiner Religion Mr. Donald P. Johnson Coach It appears that the Sophomores are in for a difficult Geometry lesson. Sister Zachary seems to be preparing that lesson just a little too carefully. The sisters at Central Cath- olic possess the patience needed to teach the difficult required subjects for which the students will be ever grateful as they further their education. r Sister Mary Francis, S.S.J. Latin Sister Francis Xavier, S.C. Spanish Sister M. Germaine, S.C. Chemistry Sister M. Helene, O.S.F. Physics, Trigonometry Greatly appreciated is our school secretary, Miss Will. Never too busy to help the students, Miss Will plays a vital part in the untold story of our school. She is a real friend and benefactor to all. Even though students have a tendency to borrow paper and pens, the supply store is a very important place. The store has a very efficient supervisor in Sister Pauline who daily, before classes, sees to the needs of all. Sister M. Irene, S.S.J. English Sister M. I.illian, O.S.F. Commercial Sister M. Patrice, S.S.J. Social Studies, Latin Sister M. Modesta, S.S.J. Sister Marie Thcrese, R.S.M. Sister M. I.orrainc, O.S.F. Science, History 1 “ English Mathematics Sister M. Robert, S.S.J. Music, Science Extra curricular activities form an integral part of the day. Sister Virginia oversees the selling of football tickets before class and during the lunch period. All accounts must be accurately balanced. Sister M. Victori ne, C.D.P. French, Girls' Physical Education “Let’s see your pass, young man,” Father Malloy seems to be saying as he checks on Dave Rutledge at the fountain. The new system proved to be a successful experi- ment. “What’s the matter, Dave, lose your pass?” Sister M. Virginia, O.S.F. Commercial Sister M. Virginia, R.S.M. j - Sister M. Zachary, S.C. Art 'y Mathematics Mr. Paul Matsko Assistant Coach, Business Training HAP MAY HE SHOW HIS FACE TO YOU AND HAVE MERCY ON YOU Saint Francis could not have been a great lover of God if he had been of mediocre soul. The mediocre man is mediocre in good or in evil. The naturally great man is a saint, or he is a tragic sinner. Today’s young Americans are exuberant and ingenious beyond mediocrity. They will make America greatly good, or they will turn it into an arch-villain of history. We are confident which of these our students will help to do, for THEY KNOW THE FACE OF CHRIST. Could that be Robert Urban dictating to Andrea Andrews? Angelinc Lake looks as if she’s trying to type. Well, Angie, just what was it that Bob dic- tated? Bob couldn’t have picked two finer girls for his secretaries. Joanne Popovich seems to be the expert in Book- keeping, but it looks as if no one is paying attention to her. Maxine Topschcr looks as if she’s enjoying herself. Wonder what’s on that paper Theresa Drzal is handing Patricia Bako? ? ? Patricia Grabcnstcin thinks she’s helping Doris Jacko. In Bookkeeping? ? Francinc Marker, Bernadette Lux and Rosemary Sloan show just how fine they can type by them- selves. Mary Jo Shaffer and Virginia Istvan explain to Jean Geiser and Roseanne Ix presti how it’s done. These girls will make good typists for someone be- fore long. While Patricia Bennett is trying to put the papers in the correct place in the file, Betty Zonka and Frances Virus work hard at the mimeograph. Looks like Elizabeth Dirsch is doing fine by herself. Better hurry girls, Sister needs those papers. IA PP fIE i Sister Anne strikes the right key, while Priscilla Cherry and Ethel Sloan try to sing it. William Neral and Fred Wasylson are figuring out what tone Sister Anne just played. It would be so much easier if they had been gifted with perfect pitch. Perhaps they are. Mary Kay Kaminski and Joe Putorek seem pretty happy over that design, but it looks as though An- gclinc Lake and Mary Ann Freidhoff find theirs more interesting. I wonder if that’s art that Paul Leach is pointing out to Pat Benny? Patricia Morgret seems to be understanding just what poor Tom Guise is trying to explain to Mary Jo Califiore and Gene Podratsky, but it looks like the book or Tom isn’t making much sense to An- drew Bobby. Some day P.O.D. is going to be a big concern for all Seniors. Sister just sent Stephen Mekis and June Oppy to the board to sec how well they can do Algebra II, while Joseph Orosz, Margie Morningstar, Eileen Regan, and Maureen Gallagher really sweat it out in their seats. Is Jacqueline McLaughlin just trying to help James Kane to get ahead ? ? ? ? ? 7 Raymond Springer, Paul Russo, Tom Cardellino, and Paul Widmann talk over solid geometry like a group of professors? ? The cones, triangles, and cylinders make an effective setting but where is the “square?” Sam Formica shows his wit by teaching Donna Gauntncr, Mary Gumowsky, and Paul Prucnal the line functions. Each one looks so intelligent. It would be convenient to sit near one of them on test day. Ronald Hess and Carol Weigel act as scribes for Pat Canary and Patricia Niesner as the latter two squint so that they can peer in on the “Perils of Paul Paramecium” as seen on channel 205. Is Pat looking for a paramecium or a wheat germ? IB ■ • .V’ Martha Noll is writing the results while Orest Kolodij controls the conductor and Bill 1 hiele runs the static generator. The interested (or seared?) on- looker is Helen Partsch. Physics students make it look so easy. But cheer up kids, you’ll have a chance some day. Sister Robert carefully observes the Senior science class as R. Eckenrodc records the reading from the scale being balanced by J. Blasko. E. Mclotti and E. Chubera check with the book to correct any mis- takes. Bob YVachs appears to be enjoying a chess game while holding the weights. These would-be chemists arc attempting to annihi- late the school with simple but rather dangerous laboratory experiments. T. Collctta, N. Gyukery, D. Gcllcs, A. Aust, R. Bernardy and N. Cartwright arc the villains. Is the bunsen burner being attached to the gas outlet or to the water spigot? •9 Fred Hite seems to be doing a good job of holding the attention of Nancy Gyukery and Maryanne Mihalick while Jim Rafferty and Winnie Billct- dcaux converse between themselves. Arc they plan- ning a field trip to France? June Oppy is translating a bit of Cicero for the class while Sister Mary Francis watches for mis- takes. It must be very interesting or could it be that everyone is really sleeping? No, those books arc balanced too straight (and so arc the heads). J. Strihan and J. Driggs seem to be absorbed by something in that book. Their serious counte- nances express the gravity of their situation. Could it be an English Test? Pat Benny, Vivian Kuntz, and Flo Sebert don’t seem to be bothered. The girls must have studied and don’t need that last minute cramming. Father Malloy instructs the class on marriage. Our seniors will certainly know what is facing them and will be well equipped to solve the matrimonial prob- lems that may confront them. Father’s religion classes arc invaluable. Arc you sure that’s the correct way of saying it? B. Marano tries to convince Bob Mellon and Kathrine Bondy that he is right. While this serious discussion proceeds on its merry way, Pat Klcsch gets help from Mike Solomon—or is it the other way around? Anyway, Spanish looks like fun. These students led by Dave Pres- tipino arc singing a German song. Carol Grabiak and John Wisor seem to be enjoying themselves, but Carol Mack and John Barchak think it a little more serious. CLASS OF 1956 Tom Cardellino, our Senior Class President, is held in high esteem by all. His congenial manner and outstanding scholastic record have made possible the capable fulfillment of his position. OFFICERS The Senior Class Officers wait for each other upon arrival while President, Tom Cardellino; Vice- President, James Rafferty; and Treasurer, John Driggs, talk to Father. Although Secretary, Pa- tricia Benny, seems to be sneaking away we hope she has only stopped momentarily in her steps.

Nancy Cartwright John Deibert Elizabeth Dirsch John Dolence Dorothy Dorchak The class officers of 105 discuss the many needs and problems of the forthcoming year. Sister Marie Therese is seen exchanging ideas with John Driggs, Orest Kolodij, Pat Benny, and Vivian Kuntz. 27 Dorothy Duranko Rose Marie Eckenrod Catherine F.ckenrode Ronald Edwards Theresa Engbert Richard Englehart Mary Agnes Fisher Santo Formica Father Grcinadcr, upon his arrival at school, seems especially happy as he is greeted by the officers of room 200, Thomas Stahr, Treasurer; Michael Solomon, Vice president; John Zatalava, President; and Priscilla Cherry, Secretary. 28 Barbara box f Jean Geiser Carol Grabiak Mary Ann Freidhoff Maureen Gallagher Donna Gauntner Donald Gelles Robert Greger Joan Gojmerac Patricia Grabenstein Matilda Groman Thomas Guise Mary Gumowsky Nancy Gyukery Agnes Haberkorn Mary Grace Heinlein Harry Hennessey Ronald Hess Fred Hite John Horvath The class officers of room 201 look for books of interest for their class activities.

They are Kathryn Wcsncr, James Novak, Joanne Jenc, and Walter Weaver. This is no wedding but some junior students seem to be having troubles. James Kenny is doing his best to fit Dolores Pilot with the right ring while Lawrence Kiniry gallantly holds on with the sam- ples. “And where do you think you’re going?” Earl Deck- er asks as he stops two sophomores. Jeanne Rcspct and Gary Henger are wondering where they should be going. Try Room 205, sophomores.

The happy looks on Rosie Rzasa, Kenny Warner, Gene Decker and Gail Karcher express how happy the sophomores are at arriving at the main building. Keep smiling, sophs, you have three years. “Oh, no you don’t!” Sister Bernard is preventing three mixed-up sophomores, Ricky Cicon, Joey Leis, and Susanne Garmen from going down the up stairs. Better turn around, sophs; Sister means it. 51 Gary Kunkle seems to know what he’s talking about as he explains the construction of the nose to Jean Marie Raymond. General Science is one of the many subjects taught to the freshmen. Tom Deter points to a map of Pennsylvania as the rest of the group, William Moschgat, Grace Nell Stevens, and Bernie Hein- rich, watch the brilliance shown by him. FRESHMEN ROOM 400, Row I: G.

St. Francis teaches us that happiness is the by-prod- uct of right action—not selfish action. When we are doing what we should do, loving and serving God and our neighbor, making ourselves into the men and wom- en that God will like to welcome one day among the saints in heaven, then St. Francis’ prayer for us is heard: “Happy are they who peaceably shall endure, for Thou, O most Highest, shall give them a crown.” Peace, for us, is the approval of our Maker. I.et us work for it. What else is worth working for? John Horvath, Eugene Podratsky, Earl Decker, Patricia Cavanaugh, Marion Schmadel, and Patricia Bako listen attentively to Father Greinader, as he explains why we can’t have that free day. It seems nothing more can be said—Father has three reasons already. The Student Council is Catholic High School’s student government. Students choose representatives for their home rooms by direct vote. Delegates at large who represent the entire class are chosen at class election time, the second Tuesday in November. Sophomores and Juniors are entitled to one representative per home room; Seniors, two representatives per home room. Sophomores do not have delegates at large, while the Juniors boast two. Seniors maintain a plurality in the student council by having four delegates at large. Regular meetings are held at which the fate of the school is determined. When a controversy arises within the school, it is presented by a representative at one of the meetings. The pros and cons are viewed and a con- clusion is reached. The final conclusion or bill is re- viewed before Father Greinader, the chief executive, who either affixes his seal of approval or vetoes it. The primary charge of the student council is the mainte- nance of the social functions of the school. STUDENT COUNCIL In the above picture, Father Greinader and the officers of the Student Council confer concerning the es- tablishment of their constitution. James Wolfe, Treasurer, and Eugene Podratsky, President, offer sug- gestions to Father Greinader concerning the provisions of their fundamental laws. James Novak, Vice- President, stands by giving his opinions of the issue in question. Andrea Andrews, Secretary, takes notes on the proceedings and resolutions. This phase of the Student Council’s activities is an important one, for it is the establishment of this basic law which results in order at future meetings. In the above picture David Dulansey is seen at the lectern passing out assignments to senior reporters. At the desk, working on their assignment, are Maiy Jane Simmons, William Thiele, Miriam Quinn, and David Rutledge. Theresa Drzal, Fred Hite, Patricia Cavanaugh, and Robert Grcgcr complacently await their assignments. Andrea Andrews seems a bit disappointed that Sam Formica received the as- signment to cover the Senior play. CRUSHER TIMES THE CRUSHER TIMES, at the com- pletion of its fifth year of publication, re- mains an acclaimed monthly feature at J.C.H.S. The editorial staff includes: David Dulansey, editor-in-chief: Rosalie Kota, assistant editor; Francis Ball, ex- change editor; William Thiele, circulation manager; Fred Hite, sports editor; and David Rutledge, assistant sports editor. Approximately thirty reporters contri- bute articles. Andrea Andrews, Joan Burkhardt, and Theresa Drzal comprise the typing staff. Features, news stories, and editorials, harmoniously blended by David Dulan- sey, editor, comprise THE CRUSHER TIMES, the voice of Catholic High School. This literary publication is a means of developing any dormant writing talents that students may have, and it enables the students to exercise their freedom of press. David Dulansey, editor, indicates an error on the paper Andrea Andrews is typing. Rosalie Kota, as- sistant editor, and Theresa Drzal, typisty seen to find something amusing on their paper. 59 Gerard Ali fano, Paul Spishak, James Wolfe, William Marano Few people realize the extent of the graces received for personal sacrifices. Such sacrifices are common to the altar boys. These young men have often given up an hour’s sleep or a few minutes of leisure to assist the priest in carrying out the liturgy of Holy Mother Church. Each boy has been drawn closer to Christ the Divine High Priest by his offerings. Paul Widmann, Michael Solomon SENIOR Joseph Kmctz, David Karcher SERVERS John Horvath, Patrick Canary, Father Cawley, John Zatalava, Thomas Barron For the past six or seven years, the altar boys have been next to the priest in their nearness to Him at Mass. The boys have had the honor of assisting the priest in the distribution of the Body of Christ to thousands of communicants. “ ... No guard that kings or emperors employ, has half the glory of an altar boy.” Something new has arrived. It’s the girls’ gym suits! Judy Probst, Nancy Cartwright, Margaret Majer, Shirley Shaffer, Marion Schmadel, Miriam Quinn, Patricia Benny, June Oppy and Maryanne Mihalick are very enthusiastic over the arrival of the gym suits. Carol Amershck seems overwhelmed and holds hers up so all could see just how she might look in hers. Patricia Cavanaugh, Priscilla Cherry, and Mary Jane Simmons take a look at the sophomores’ suits, in sea-foam green. They arc certainly much more convenient than the uniforms in gym class. RADIO CLUB Some of our future radio announcers have successfully obtained ex- perience through the radio club. They arc left to right: J. Skelly, L. Burns, R. Kopler, J. Driggs, F. Riener, F. Ball, J. Lefebre, D. Rut- ledge, T. Zeungcs, J. Deibert, J. Burgo, G. Alifano, T. Maloy. HOBBY CLUB Dick Wiblc displays his award-winning model car. He received first prize in the state and regional com- petition sponsored by the Fisher Body Craftsman Guild. Dick was given $150 and an all-expense trip to Detroit. Congratulations! SCIENCE CLUB Members of the science club intently watch a dem- onstration of a Van de Graff generator and jocobes ladder. The club is under the direction of Sr. Ger- maine and is led by Orest Kolodji, President, David Warden, Vice-Presidenty Mary Agnes DuBrecque, Secretary, and Robert Gregor, Treasurer. Other members arc F. Ozog, R. Boast, S. Wolfhope, B. Ream, P. Sheehan, M. G. Frochlich, D. Rutledge, and P. Prucnal. MISSION CLUB The Mission Club representatives, L. Burns, J. Rafferty, P. Widman, R. Bach and M. I-ogan under the supervision of Sister Germaine count the proceeds of the Orphans’ Qollection. Besides this project, the club also is in charge of the Christmas and Easter candy sales, the profit from which helps to support the missions. MONOGRAM CLUB These students arc the athletes who have merited a letter for one of the three major sports that Catholic High offers. The members of the Monogram Club are: Stephen Mekis, Ronald Klepps, James Janek, James Adams, John Horvath, Joseph Cekada, Thomas Dolan. Row II: Harold Dirienzo, James Rafferty, John Pavlick, Earl Decker, Michael Wagner, Robert Chimiak, Thomas Kelly. Row III: Richard Rhodes, Andrew Majcr, John Diebert, James Kenny, Eugene Podratsky, Lawrence Updyke, James Novak. Absent: Ernie Page. The literary staff is an integral part of the yearbook committee: many hours of conscientious work go into the captions and write-ups and their ability in handling the work assigned is shown in the articles of our annual. Members of the literary staff are: T. Drzal, M. A. Mihalick, J. Zatalava, R. Suttmiller, P. Spishak, J. Cassidy, F. Ball, P. Cavanaugh, C. Croyle, T. Zeunges, and D. Jacko. MEMORIES STAFF John Zatalava, the editor of the yearbook, deserves credit for getting the management wheels turning smoothly. EDITORS From the very beginning of the school term the F.dito- rial staff consisting of John Zatalava and his associates Robert Suttmiller, Jeanne Cassidy and Theresa Drzal started making plans for the 1956 Memories. When the work of the photography department was underway the literary staff stepped in to create a book that is something more than a picture book, a book that will in after years be cherished for its fond memo- ries of our high school days. These quick witted report- ers are Pat Cavanaugh, Carol Croyle, Ted Zeunges, Pat Bako, Paul Spishak, Francis Ball, and Mary Ann Mihalik. F.ach tried to do his write-up expertly so that the written word would be as interesting as the pho- tography. As the paper work is the backbone of any organiza- tion so it is also with the yearbook. The typing de- partment spent long and tedious hours transcribing the body of the yearbook to a workable form. Their exact work has contributed greatly to the quality of the ’56 Memories. A word of thanks is due to the editors, to the literary staff and to the typing department for their untiring efforts and full cooperation in making the yearbook a 64 success. BUSINESS STAFF The business staff for the ’56 Memories headed by Earl Decker, Richard Wible and Emery Cristoff, was re- sponsible for the most successful patron drive held by the students of Catholic High. Other efficient members of the business staff are Fred Wasylson, Robert Urban, Pat Benny, Vivian Kuntz, Teresa Engbert, Elaine Chubara, Kay Bondy, Patricia Morgret, Marian Schmadel, Rosemary Eckenrode, Carol Amershak, Sally Sisk, Carol Grabiak and Mary Gumowsky. Each day of the drive, patron slips were collected from the senior classes, amounts totaled and tallied, and the final daily amount recorded on the Patron Drive charts. The cooperation and enthusiasm of the students were rewarded with the attaining of the goal. A special word of congratulation is to be extended to the seniors of for their splendid work. These student editors, John Zatalava, Jeanne Cassidy, Robert Sutt- millcr, and Theresa Drzal took on the responsibility of achieving unity, harmony and balance in the yearbook. Congratulations on work well done! Bernadette Lux, Dot Olchcsky, Joseph Burgo, Mary Jo Shaeffer, Margie Majcr, Doris Jacko, Dolores Klochak, Pat Bennett, Donna Rick and Barbara Fox are among those of the typing department who have made the yearbook a reality. With cooperation and a spirit of “get up and go” these members of the business staff are eager to begin the patron drive. They are Pat Benny, V. Kuntz, P. Morgret, K. Bondy, E. Chubara, T. Engbert, M. Schmadel, R. Eckenrode, C. Amershak, S. Sisk, C. Grabiak and M. Gumowsky. Not only is a good literary committee necessary in the accomplishing of a year book, but an efficient business staff is of equal importance. R. Wible, R. Urban, E. Decker, E. Cristoff, and F. Wasylson arc checking the final returns of the patron drive. Off on another test of speech work, our Forensic students prepare to tackle the opposition once again. Under the competent leadership of Father Greinadcr and Sister Estelle, the students prepare to put into practice what they have learned during the long hours of research and training. We sometimes fail to realize how important the ability to express one- self really is. In the Forensic organization, anyone wishing to develop his means of expression is given training in this field and thus he learns all the important points of speech content, composition, and deliverance. Because of the willingness of the students and the excellent tutoring of Father Greinader and Sister Estelle, Catholic High has won nu- merous laurels in all fields of forensics. The program includes humor- ous, serious, original, and extemporaneous types of speeches. Many fine debating points are also taught. In preparation for the speech contests, students must show that they are willing to relinquish their extra time for work on their speech- es. A credit to their school, their nation, and to themselves, we highly regard the future public speakers of America. A much overlooked part of Forensics is the meetings held after class hours. Here we find careful and seri- ous planning of the work to be done. The partici- pants readily give their time in order to better them- selves in speech work. 66 James Novak, Vice-President; Sister Estelle; Father Greinader; Fred Hite, President; Gerard Alifano, Treasurer; and Priscilla Cherry, Secretary examine with pride the school’s charter of the N.F.L. chapter. One of the most important phases of speech is re- search. Francis Ball and Jerry Alifano indulge in a little after school work while Maryanne Mihalick and John Skelly also prepare for their speeches. Andrea Andrews puts forth all her efforts and experience in her por- trayal of Lady Macbeth’s sleep- walking scene in an attempt to win the judge’s decision. 67 FORENSICS “Should the government subsidize needy high school students who qualify for additional training? This wao the topic for debate over the past year. Every year, in the debating department, a controver- sial question is discussed. Each debating team is composed of two members who uphold one side of the question. Debating is the most important phase of Forensics, and is the one that requires the most preparation. Another part of Forensics in which invaluable training is amassed is the Student Congress. A Student Congress works exactly like that of the United States. The Congress is divided into the Senate and the House of Representatives where students attempt to settle the serious problems that confront the world today. The Forensics League gives a student excellent opportunities to meet and discuss matters with numerous other students throughout the district. At the many contests in which Johnstown Catholic High students have competed, they have come to know and respect many friends from other cities and localities. At the same time, the Foren- sic league gives a student a feeling of independence and responsibility. There are many contests held throughout the school year, at the end of which, students travel to some big city to compete for national honors. Some of our students have been to both Cleveland and New York in national competition. One’s hard work really pays off in the grand finale, which brings to a close another year of forensic work. Priscilla Cherry laboriously uses every possible appeal to a great advantage in convincing the judge that her speech is tops. A veteran comedian, and an ap- pealing one at that, Joe Lefebre captivates the audience with his witty humorous speech. Mary Jane Simmons provides the school with a most appealing, se- rious-minded talk. Taking many honors, the judges were of the same opinion. Santo Formica. Pat Klesch BAND The striking uniforms worn by the band members are observed by many each Friday night during football season as they march down Main Street to the Point Stadium. Their performance at half time keeps the spectators watching constantly. At any parade one will hear and see Catholic High’s band and cheerleaders marching to music which could really “shake down the thunder from the sky.” Many mornings in September and October the band members are seen hurrying to the gym for practice. It is a band of which the student body is rightly proud.

At intermission for class plays, before and after the Catholic Forum, and especially at the Cantata where Christmas music is the best ever heard, the orchestra members fulfill their duty by showing some of their hidden talent, which isn’t hidden any more. The annual Op- eretta would not be complete without the orchestra to melodiously enchant the audience. The capable musicians work hard and to the best of their ability which is reflected by their many splendid performances. With William Neral, the student director, conducting the group it is always pleasing to be present at any function where the orchestra is performing. Dave Dulanscy and Francis Moore Bill Neral and Carl Kirchner CHRISTMAS CANTATA The annual cantata at J.C.H.S., “The First Noel,” a musical com- memoration of Christ’s birth, was staged on December 9 and 11, under the capable direction of Sister Anne. The music was provided by the school orchestra, and vocal selections were rendered by the glee club. Magnificent tableaus brought vividly to mind the story of the first Christmas, and emphasized its significance in our twentieth century. “And it came to pass . . .” The Blessed Virgin brought forth her first-born son in a simple stable at Bethlehem. Joseph called Him, Jesus. Mary Agnes Fisher portrays Mary and Thomas Cardel- lino, Joseph.

This beautiful finale scene imprints upon the mind the events which bear so much significance in the lives of all men. The students are G. Waltz, B. Nanko, M. K. Hirsch, S. Garmen, M. Koval, W. Leslie, R. Kenny, S. Rzasa, M. Staruh, F. Wasylson, J. Burgo, M. A. Fisher, R. M. Rzasa, T. Cardellino, P. Prezuhy, H. Lcckey, T. Euen, J. Hartman, P. Mihalick, F. Mowery, J. Sweeney, J. A. Zieralski, and R. A. Nitch. Balthasar, Casper, and Melchior discover the Child Jesus with Mary, His mother, and Joseph, His foster-father. Falling down on their knees, they wor- ship the Savior and bestow gifts of gold, frankin- cense, and myrrh. The students portraying these wise men arc F. Wasylson, J. Burgo, and P. Prezuhy. The shepherds came from their pastures. They find Mary and Joseph and the Babe lying in a manger. Humbly they glorify and praise God for all they have seen and heard. The shepherds arc W. Leslie, R. Kenny, S. Rzasa, M. Staruh, H. Lcckey, T. Euen, and J. Hartman. Philip Morlock, too busy having his pains, ignores Luigi's plea. George and Miss Akers look doubt- ful, and Mildred just doesn’t care Jessica sighs with displeasure at the obstinacy of her father. JUNIOR PLAY Widower, Luigi, is reunited with his dead wife, Martha, who is re- turning to check up on Joe. “Rest Assured,” a comedy in three acts by Donald Payton, was given last year by the Junior Class. Mr. Morlock, played by Dick Englehart, portrayed a blustery businessman who after too many sleeping pills passes away. To his dismay he finds he must go down there because of his past actions. Jeanne Cassidy played his wife, Hazel Morlock. Her two daughters are Jessica, Priscilla Cherry, a vivacious young girl who aspires to be a lady wrestler, and Mary, June Oppy, a quiet girl who plans to marry Joe Lanconi. Joe is played by Jerry Alifano. Ernie Page portraying Joe’s father, Luigi Lanconi, comes to plead his son’s case. After a tussle Luigi has a heart attack and dies on the way to the hospital. After death he comes back to see Philip who is on his way down. Mr. Morlock’s secretary, Miss Akers, Pat Cavanaugh, and his attorney George, Pat Canary, are unmoved by the death. Mildred, Pat Bako, is a perpetual complainer who finds the body of Mr. Mor- lock. Mary Jo Califore played Martha, Luigi’s dead wife. Robert Melon playing Jake and Flo Sebert, Mrs. Frink, are two foreign friends of Luigi’s. Jack Driggs played Dr. Brown, who didn’t quite pull Philip through. Mr. Black, the undertaker, was played by Earl Decker; Lucifer, Bob Wachs, is the devil who comes to take Philip down and Mrs. Smaltz, Andrea Andrews, is to be his companion. The play, a rollicking hit, will always be remembered. Jake and Mrs. Frink pay their re- spects to Joe and Mary upon the deaths of Luigi and Philip. Mil- dred consoles Mrs. Frink. The three ghosts on the left, Philip, Luigi, and Martha, watch the pro- ceedings with interest. 72 “No, no!” screams Mr. Morlock as people resembling Lucifer and Mrs. Smaltz come to apply for house- hold work. Luigi, Mrs. Morlock, Jessica, Joe, Mary, and Mildred arc thoroughly enjoying the antics of Mr. Morlock. Just another chance,” pleads Mr. Morlock as Lucifer prepares to make the descent. Mrs. Smaltz is showing ‘Butch’ how they goose-step down there. 13 Dr. Brown and Hazel Morlock are the unknowing receivers of Philip Morlock’s anger. Mr. Black, the undertaker, is trying to complete the funeral arrangements. Here is a picture of the entire cast of “Seven Sisters.” Each group is portraying a scene from the play. Michael Sandorffy is getting ac- quainted with Sari. Ferenz Horhoy is shocked to find that Mitzi still plays with dolls. The Colonel seems to be more absorbed in Katinka than in his sword. Janko is practicing his bow, while Toni talks with Terka. Gida and Ella are deep in the discussion of love. Mrs. Gyur- kovics is centering her attention on her two small daughters, Klara and Liza. “Surrender!” Three angry men discover Richard the Lion-Hearted hidden in the living room. Poor Gida, between Ella and the boys, he never had a chance! 74 Pierrot and Pierrette, the stars of our play, are congratulating each other on the successful tricks they played on the family. Sari and Ella look surprised. Mother has just lined up the “Seven Sisters” and changed their ages to suit the suitors. Poor Mitzi—fifteen. 75 SENIOR PLAY “Seven Sisters,” a very rewarding production, was staged by the Senior class under the direction of Sister Mary Clement. This entertaining dramatic feat was offered to the public over the Armistice Day weekend, with evening performances given on November n and 14, and afternoon performances given on November il and 13. Members of the cast included: Mitzi—Priscilla Cherry, Ferenz Horkoy—John Driggs, Mrs. Gyur- kovics—Andrea Andrews, Katinka—Jeanne Cassidy, Sari—Miriam Quinn, Ella—Mary Jane Simmons, Liza —Matilda Groman, Terka—Francine Marker, Klara— Bonnie Stormer, Michael Sandorffy—Patrick Canary, Colonel Radviany—Richard Englehart, Barron Rad- viany—Ronald Hess, Tony Teleki—Joseph Lefebre, and Janko—Donald Gelles. These two lovely ladies, Mary- anne Mihalick and Carolyn Sop- chick, arc the prompters who made sure that all the students remem- bered their lines. OPERETTA The popular Broadway show “The Red Mill” was pre- sented by the students of the school as their operetta. Everyone familiar with it enjoyed the adventures of the two Americans, Kidd and Conn, who were stranded in a little Dutch town famous for its haunted Red Mill. Although it attracted many tourists, the mill was no more haunted than the old Inn owned and operated by Willem, who is trying to keep his stage struck daughter at home. The plot thickens when the love affair of Gretchan, a fair country maid, and a foreign sea-captain is made known. But all ends well with the scrupulous aid of Kidd and Conn. The Glee Club excelled in their singing. The production was further brightened by several dance numbers. Credit is to be given to Father McCaa, whose careful direction made the Show the success that it was. The Red Mill was the biggest pres- entation ever attempted at Catholic High in the line of light opera. It is quite certain that the class will always have a place in their many memories of the fun and work that went into the making of “The Red Mill.” Countess dc la Fere seems a bit put out as she com- plains to the Burgomaster about her accident while the rest of the cast looks on. Willem seems to be indicating that the interpreter is ready to interpret. As Tina sings she is being danced about by Janet Billetdcaux and Bill Neral, Janet Foltin and Jack Driggs, Carol Amershek and Pat Canary, Aggie Hautz and Walter Weaver. Dances add a bit of live- liness throughout the operetta. 7b The Governor sings to his comrades. Bernie Ream, Jim Seitz, Ron Salony, Bernie Rosage, Charlie Gojmerac and Jack Deibert compose the left side. On the other side Barry Cushing, Tom Barron, Dave Marshall, Bob Bumbera, Ron Williams and Tom Maloy lend themselves to the song. THE RED MILL Having a few moments alone gives Bertha and the Governor a chance to sing their duct. Kid Conner, dressed as Sherlock Holmes, holds the constable at bay as Con Kidder ties him to the chair, with Joshua looking on. “The Red Mill” itself—with the fair damsel Gret- chan (Miriam Quinn) locked inside. The reason? Her ever-loving father does not wish her to marry the captain. 77 As Kidd and Conn reminisce about old New York this dance number takes place. The dancers arc Pat Cavanaugh, Peggie MeDermit, Carol Karr, Barbara May, Carol Grabiak, Vivian Kuntz, Judy Sefcik, Mary Jo Califiore, and Mary Jo Shaffer, Pat Mor- gret and John Zatalava. 78 Not only the scenery for The Red Mill,” but also all the other art work necessary for the stage, is done by Oreste Kolodij. His masterful brush paints the three dimensional pictures on the back wall. Here the boys behind the scenes build the old inn. Bob Herman places the flower box at the window while Dave Evans plants them down below. Sherman Jones puts the last nail in the steps as Bill McDcrmitt fixes the door. Dave Rutledge is placing the table, and with Carl Lucas’s last stroke the set is complete. While the constable is comfortably sleeping against the Mill” the girls dance about gracefully. The chorus line consists of Mary Jo Califiore, Vivian Kuntz, Judy Sefcik, Elaine Chubara, Maryanne Mihalick, Pat Skala, Andrea Andrews, and Priscilla Cherry. The prima ballerinas are Carol Grabiak and Rosalie Kota. What's a stage without a spotlight! Lawrence Koenig is our chief spot-lighting engineer. With “George” operating the light, the “stars” will really shine. All’s well that ends well. The entire cast looks on as the nuptials betwefcn Bertha and the Governor arc performed. This scene repre- sents many days of hard work. It was well worth it. A few of the local Dutchmen and their girls do a little of “Artists and Models.” The girls arc Roberta Balazik, Joanne Burkardt, Mary Jane Simmons, Janet Mock, Mary Ludwig, Ethel Sloan, Connie Shrift, and Joanne Popovich. The boys are Bill Thiele, Ed Melotti, John Sedlmeyer, Jim McGregor, Jim Novak, Ernie Page, Ron Benson and Paul Widmann. 79 The Blessed Sacrament is exposed all day during the retreat. Here, two altar boys kneel in adoration. Father Joseph Fleming, the re- treatmaster, gesticulates and em- phasizes the causes and effects of juvenile delinquency. RETREAT A retreat is a withdrawal from worldly affairs to take inventory of one’s spiritual life. So it is that at Catholic High during the first three days of Holy Week the Jun- iors and Seniors set aside their hooks to reflect on more serious matters—those concerning their spiritual lives. Mass, meditation, spiritual reading, conferences, and Benediction constitute a retreat day. Silence is main- tained so as to create a proper atmosphere for these spiritual activities, which contribute much toward the sanctification of the retreatant. On the final day of the retreat, the retreatmaster imparts the Papal blessing, “ ... In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritui Sancto. Amen,”—a significant ending to a significant event. Strains of the Tantum Ergo are heard as the priest and altar boys kneel before the altar during Benediction. The retreatmaster concludes a conference with a counsel to “walk in the shadow of God and live always in the state of grace.” MAY CROWNING Early in May a solemn and beautiful commemoration of the queenship of Mary is enacted—the May Crown- ing. The May Crowning ceremony begins with a proces- sional sung by the sodalists and is followed by the recitation of the rosary. Preceding the actual coronation ceremonies, Father Greinackr delivers an address on a subject relating to Our Lady. Then Father crowns the May Queen, who is customarily the prefect of the Senior Sodality. The May Queen in turn places a crown of roses on the head of Our Lady’s statue. Everyone then recites the Act of Consecration thus dedicating themselves in all their words, actions, and deeds to the service of Mary, their Heavenly Mother. The May Queen places the cor- onation wreath of roses on the head of Our Lady’s statue—an appropriate salute to the Mother of God. Priscilla Cherry, Secretary-Treasurer; Francine Marker, Vice-Prefect; and Carolyn Sopchick, Prefect admire the symbol of Our Lady—the perfect model of Christian womanhood. The May Queen, bearing the crown of roses, and her attendants approach the statue of Our Lady to be crowned as the climax of the May Crowning ceremony. The students at Catholic High cherish this statue of Our Lady of Grace which reminds them so much of the benevolence of their Heavenly Mother. PROM NIGHT Paul Russo helps Joanne Burk- hardt into the car the night of the Prom. Our chaperones take a minute out from the bustling activities of the Prom to pose for a picture. From left to right, they are: Mrs. Gra- biak, Dr. Grabiak, Mrs. Alifano, and Mrs. Spenger. We thank them for their service. Jerry Alifano, Miriam Quinn, Ernie Page, Priscilla Cherry, Pat Cavanaugh and Pat Canary make their way back to the tables. A small body of juniors worked a full day on the beautiful decorations. This is a perfect example of the great co-operation among the student body. Judging from the facial expressions, Florence Sebcrt, John Wisor, Bob Greger, and Helen Partsch arc enjoying themselves. It would seem that Miriam Quinn is having a hard time reading her dance program, as Jerry Alifano and Dave Dulanscy prepare to change partners. Pat Grabcnstein is happy to find that the next dance is not taken. Mary Jane Simmons and Francis Ball. 8.3 At last the big night has arrived. It is now May tenth and the students are enjoying themselves immensely at the Junior- Senior Prom. The junior class has dec- orated the gym very nicely for the seniors’ last prom which will be everlastingly in each one’s chain of memorable events at their Alma Mater. The theme of the prom is “Starlight.” Blue crepe paper with silver stars make the ceiling appear like the sky while the rocks and flowers along with the trellises give the illusion of an outdoor garden. A statue of the Blessed Virgin is surrounded by ferns. In fact, it is the central spot of attention, especially at intermission when each person con- secrates himself to Our Lady. The Dave Dysert Orchestra is providing the soft music as the boys and girls dance and the evening quickly passes into a memory. MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU God’s blessing is God’s word of approval. God ap- proves good. Since good, for the athlete, is clean, joy- ful coordination of eye and muscle, God, Himself must cheer when we carry out His plan by a well-hit ball, an accurate pass, a perfectly “swished” basket. Although St. Francis never saw a football, a baseball bat, or a basketball hoop—swords and spears and little else made up the athlete’s equipment then—he would have agreed with us on clean sports, which bring health to body and to soul. Rejoice in your victories. Smile in defeat. And may the Lord bless the sports at Catholic High. FOOTBALL During his years here, Mr. Johnson has made many important contributions to our athletic program. As head coach this year, his thorough knowledge of sports and careful coaching have been a decisive factor in producing winning teams.

There is nothing like the thrill of a good, hard fought football game. The Crushers always play hard to move the pigskin down the gridiron and over the opposition’s jealously guarded goal line. This season, the team was called on to play in all kinds of weather. But though the climate was wet and the field was soggy, the spirit of the team was never dampened. Neither did rugged weather discourage the loyalty of Catholic High fans and rooters, who were always there in numbers, to cheer the team on every play. Football is a game of perseverance. Every time the ball is snapped, whether the play is a cleverly-faked handoff, a long pass or a line plunge, there is always one burning thought in the minds of the players. That is “forward, ever onward,” to outwit and outplay the foe, fight for each first down, and carry that ball into the end zone. With a new head coach and able assistant this year, the team, although not exactly unbeaten, played with equal zest in victory and defeat. With the advantages of its first pre-school training camp at St. Francis Col- lege, the team on the whole, gave a good account of it- self during this past year. While at training camp, for the first time, the coaches hold a little outdoor “skull” practice. By the look on their faces camp must have been quite nice. The boys arc coming home from a hard evening of practice. They are Jim Rafferty, Earl Decker, Gene Podratsky, Jack Deibert, Jack Horvath, Andy Majer, and Ernie Page. FOOTBALL SCORES J.C.H.S.

Tom Palowitch, Charles Widdershcim, Paul Prucnal, Joe Lefebre and Dave Dulanscy “let loose” with a chorus of “When the Saints Go Marching In.” The Catholic High “Living Band” adds spirit to each of the home basketball games. Unseen to the public are the practice sessions of the basketball team. Pictured is a typical scrimmage game which takes place at every practice. The hard work put forth by these boys leads to thrilling games and a winning team. ist Row—Bill Vandrak, Tom Dolan, Paul Boltz, Gary Nau, Manager; Bob Billetdeaux, and Dickie Labuda. 2nd Row—Jim Kenny, Roy Kiblcr, Andy Tomkowsky, Frank Garbinski, Richard Rhoades, Pat Kcclan, Tony Crimark, Steve Pavlick, and Coaches; Paul Matsko and Donald Johnson. During four, cold winter months, hundreds of students come tramping through snow and sleet to the Johns- town Catholic High School gymnasium. What powerful force can draw these boys and girls out of their warm homes on a cold night? What is it that makes them shout and cheer until they can no longer talk? Only one thing can accomplish these wonders—Basketball! School work and even mid-term exams are momentarily forgotten when King Basketball takes over. The center of every conversation is the hardwood floor. The players eat, sleep and breathe basketball. They become the heroes of the student body. And for their hard work, they deserve every credit and honor given them. The student body itself becomes part of the tense game being played. A great shout resounds through the gym in response to the appeal of the pretty cheerleaders. When the Crimson Crushers win a game in the last few seconds, the roar of the crowd is deafening. When a game is lost, there is the proverbial, “Wait ’till next time.’ The basketball season is one of the many pleasant “Moments to Remember” of our high school years. 91 Horvath observes as Barron fights for the rebound in an octopus-like struggle to gain possession. Tom Barron Jack leaps high for one of his famous “lay-ups” as a Franklin player leans on the wind. Note the de- termined expression on Jack’s face. Carol Amershek Tom Barron jumps to toss in a bucket as an oppos ing player grimly awaits the verdict. 92 Everybody tries to lay hands on the ball; Janak strikes a graceful pose, Altoona players’ arms en- mesh Gene, but he has the ball and nobody is going to get it, either. Gene Podratsky Podratsky flips in a jump shot, faking out “fero- cious” Ben Haselrig of J. H. S. “Skeets” outrcaches a “Jaybird” in a center jump, straining every muscle while Horvath, Barron, and Updykc tense in suspended animation. Jack Horvath 93 BASEBALL The pitcher surveys the batter with casual but observant glance, winds up and lets fly the ball. There is a barely audible whoosh and then a crack. The ball zooms out towards center field. The second baseman scoops it up on the run and fires it over to first base. The batter flings away his power stick and takes off like a scared rabbit. The decision will be close. While the horsehide wings its way with the speed of an arrow, the runner’s cleats dig up the dirt like a “Jag” in a zero to sixty dragout. There is a mad scramble, a gritty scrape, a smack of horsehide on leather and a cloud of dust. “Safe!” It was close, but not unlike lots of other plays during the game. That’s the thrill of baseball, a casual-looking sport, but one re- quiring alertness, skill and speed. When spirited high school teams get together, a good afternoon of hard play brings out their best. When the weather turns warm and the birdies chirp with song, love isn’t the only thing to which a young athlete turns his thoughts. The familiar sight of pitch and catch during every spare minute before and after school gives evidence of that. Gene Podratsky steps up to bat while Dick Wible calls signals to the pitcher. Will it be a hit or a miss? Coach Matsko points out a few fundamentals to the baseball team made up of: st Row—L. Updyke, T. Dolan, and J. Janak. 2nd Row—G. Podratsky, R. Kleps, J. Pavlick, M. Wagner, and J. Horvath. 3rd Row—J. Strihan, M. Solomon, and J. Larnick. 4th Row—D. Wible, J. Dicbert, and T.
