Y. I DEDICATION OUTH is vital, its adventurous spirit is ever striving to attain the highest peaks of achievement. In the future its dreams, ideals, and principles must influence and guide America and the people of the world toward a finer civilization. The Senior Class of 1940 of LaSalle High School dedicates this sixth edition of the Ongiara to Youth, in whose hands lies the destiny of our mighty republic. FOREWORD E who are graduating this year begin our part in the work of America. The preparation given us has been more complete than that of the youth of any other nation. The fruits of generations of labor have been ours in the life of freedom that we have enjoyed. The culture of the world has been at our commandg no barriers of creed, race, or politics have limited our opportunities. All these blessings America has oitered her children. Today America needs her youth. It is now that we must realize and demon- strate our gratitude for the abundance of good fortune that has been showered upon us. We do not go forth with the attitude that America owes us a livingg we are sincerely conscious of the fact that we owe our best service to America and that she is depending upon us to help her through today's shadows into the sunlight of tomorrow. We are glad to assume our duties in the task of creating a better, more glorious America. In this spirit we adopt Americanism as our theme. .si 4 Ik., ADMINISTRATORS Il 4 rcincinlicr, as small chilnlrun, sccing tliuir tuturc high st-liiml unilcr construction.

These youths have made the most ofthe educational opportunities offered to them by America. To all they have demonstrated their ambition, industry, perseverance, and intellectual ability. They have won respect and friendship through the ability to master and control themselves and through their ever present courtesy. All are commendable contributions to society. The characteristics so evident in their youth will be invaluable to them and to their country. Already they have attained superiority in educational fields. YVith the traits that they possess they cannot help but win greater success in later life. Such are the personalities who must help America to meet and solve her problems.

This was a presentation of a more serious type of drama than had formerly been produced on the stage at LaSalle. Under the direction of lwrs. Erwin and Nliss lN'lcDougall, difficult character roles were convincingly developed by the seniors. The success of the production would not have been possible without the worli of the play committee, headed by Geraldine Power. The committee was responsible for the publicity, business, make-up, prompting, and the effective period costuming of the cast. .was--...Q-Q : ,. M -'11 51 Ir-- CLASS HISTORY S members of the Class of '40 we have reached the last milestone in our high-school careers, but often we shall look back over these six years of progress. It is here, within the walls of LaSalle, that we have prepared ourselves for the business of becoming citizens of a democratic nation. In September, 1954, the fourth seventh grade entered the portals of LaSalle Iunior-Senior High School. Life in this famous hall of knowledge was an entirely new experience for all of us. We were enthralled with the responsibility of changing classes every forty minutes, and it was with a great deal of pride that we made ourselves working parts of this stately edifice. It wasn't long before our superiors recognized our unusual abilities. They rewarded us by allowing our class the privilege of being the first seventh grade to organize, and at once we elected lean Starkey as our class President. Our next adventure was the class party which everyone enthusiastically attended. At the close of school on the day appointed we all retired to the gym where amazing stunts were presented by the various homerooms. At the conclusion of the program, amid much chatter, we gathered in the cafeteria for refreshments. It was indeed a notable day for our worthy class. In the spring of thirty-five we experienced the excitement of an election which involved the entire Iunior High. After a vigorous campaign we chose Beverly Weigand as Vice-President for the Iunior Council. Our democratic training had begun. As eighth graders we settled down to a more composed routine g how- ever, we were by no means an inconspicuous class. The unusual talent of our group began to appear in numerous programs. In the spring of 1956 we attended to the business of electing a President for the Iunior Council, and through our energetic efforts and persuasive oratory we swept Anthony Kalivoda into office. Thus another year sped past us, and we emerged as full fledged fresh- men. As the second semester of that never-to-be-forgotten year rolled around, we found ourselves preparing for our graduation. Although others might tremulously face the prospect, we felt secure under the able leadership of Mrs. Coyle. You recall that we elected Iames Shields as our President and Beverly Weigand as our Vice-President. Of course you remember the work accomplished by Robert Babbitt who acted as both secretary and treasurer. In May we sponsored our Iunior Prom, a very gala affair. The gym- nasium was gorgeously decorated and proved a fitting backdrop for the pretty dresses of the feminine half of the dancers. For many of us it will be a treasured memory in years to come. .QI 52 Ip.. Finally, in the presence of proud parents, we proceeded on that eventful day of Iune to receive our certificates of promotion. We had reached the half way mark, there stood before us three years of continued work and pleasure, of which we resolved to make the most. Our sophomore year soon was at hand, and we were swept into a whirl of activity. Once again we were honored by being the first tenth grade to be organized. There wasn't any doubt that under our faculty adviser, Mrs. Leibinger, we would climax this year triumphantly. After much preparation and anticipation we presented our beaming persons for our first participation in that festive spectacle known as May Day. Numerous events unfolded before our eyes, and we noted eagerly that our points were mounting steadily. It is needless to add that we found ourselves accepting very graciously, with malice toward none, the May Day cup. The halls of dear old LaSalle rang with our merry laughter once again in the autumn of nineteen hundred and thirty-eight. As juniors we con- sidered ourselves indispensable pillars of our Alma Mater. Mrs. Wright became our faculty adviser and helped us to accomplish our goal. In this year, Mr. Schwinger reorganized our traffic squad into what became, in our estimation, one of the best. However, our system of con- trol in the corridors was matched by our football team's control of the gridiron, for it was to our great delight that the Explorers became City Champion. With exhilaration we shattered all seemingly insurmountable barriers which stood in our path. An excellent example of our power is shown in the fact that once again we secured the May Day trophy and became the only class to maintain this honor during two consecutive years. Our banners waved on high 5 and our colors, which, by the way, were Chartreuse and fuchsia, stood out as symbols of our success in this field. Thus had the school year ended in a blaze of glory. Last fall our class had reached the last stretch on that highway known as High School. We organized our class early because of the amount of work we had to accomplish in the short space of eight months. Miss Burns was selected to advise us, and the class will long remember her kind friendliness and aid. Winifred Wendt, class President, led us on to even higher peaks of success. She was capably aided by Vice-President Robert Babbitt, Secretary Agnes Winters, and Treasurer Dan Campbell. Our American education has taught us the values of our Democracy. Each generation of American Youth steps forth to serve and improve their country. The sun has set upon our last year of high school only to rise again to greet a new era in which America's Youth hopes to fulfill its dreams of continued peace and good will in a prosperous nation of happy people. GERALDINE PowER, Clam Hzlrtorian. 'ei 55110 CLASS WILL LTHOUGH thrilled by the prospects of our graduation, we, the Class of 1940, experience a keen sense of responsibility as we leave the portals of our Alma Mater. Heavy has been the labor, but pleasing are the fruits of victory. As we have learned the priceless principles of Americanism, so have we acquired a business sense that makes us cognizant of the fact that it is the duty of every American to leave behind him a testa- mentary document to protect his beneficiaries. Through perseverance and arduous labor we have amassed not one but many valuables that we cannot take with us. In this spirit we call upon the Iunior Class to act as our executor in effecting the following bequests: 1. To the faculty we leave the memory of our sweet selves Cjust as if they could forgetl and our appreciation for all the benefits which we have received from them. 2. Upon the hopeful Iuniors we bestow all our unpaid bills. 5. To those poor victims, the Sophomores, we wish the noise we made in the cafeteria. There certainly is an abundance of this. 4. In the hope that they realize how fortunate they are in having been appointed their guardians, we have chosen a few people to assume the responsibility and protection of the following heirlooms: The S. O. S. Club is intrusted to Pat Sweetman, known as Aunt Hetty, if she has the courage to accept. In case she feels her duties too heavy, she may then call upon the firing squad to destroy this organization. Bud McCullough's shoes, size eleven, are left in charge of Edson Case. Geraldine Power's fingernail polish is bequeathed to Gloria Iones and Barbara Stratiff. This treasure must be watched day and night because there have been many violent attempts made against its safety. Bob Babbitt's column in the Griffon is placed in the care of Bob Fadum. Beverly Weigand's plan to demolish Niagara Falls is transferred to Frannie Kinsey. It may be found in Bev's drawer in the chemistry laboratory. Anna May Reho's gum is submitted to the guardianship of Stella Easton. Bob Blankman's long steps are left in the tender care of Mitchell Fadel. All the tumbles that Iean Starkey and Betty Frantz had at the Arena are tenderly given to Iean Babbitt. Wlhat is left of Ed Perry's camera, after having taken our pictures, is to be guarded zealously by Bill Cosby. This will contains the last mandates of the Senior Classy as such they have been incor- porated in this document by me this twenty-fifth day of Iune, 1940. IEAN MARIE MILLER, Cla,-.r T efialor. ,QI 54 Ig., CLASS POEM Your:-I Looks AT AMERICA America, thy youth has faith that here Ideals and dreams need not give place to fear. Each man unto himself is sovereign, Bound only by the rights of other men: The right of each to act as he deems best, To work, to plan, to live and laugh and jest, The right of all to know and speak the truth. What wonder would these bring to eyes of youth In lands where dreams are bartered for the sword And hatred in the hearts of men is stored! America, youth sees that thou art fair, And eagerly he now prepares to share In Working to preserve thee as thou art, A land with dreams, a nation with a heart. ELAINE BAUMANN, Clam Poet. CLASS PROPHECY RAWING a crumpled telegram dated May 51, 1950 from my purse, 1 again read the words which were bringing me from the Gorgas hospital in Panama to the United States. This message, sent to me collect by Katie Ford, who had just returned from a successful concert tour in Europe, told me that there was to be a grand reunion of the Class of 1940. As 1 hurried up the portable steps of my plane, I was greeted by a pert little stewardess, Betty Soley, who escorted me to my seat. Looking up as the pilot and co-pilot came aboard, 1 was astonished to see Sid Walton and William Mays take their places at the controls. Hearing an argument, 1 glanced across the aisle where 1 discovered army officers Gerald Vanderlip, Iohn Knox, and George Phillips discussing coastal defenses. In a vain attempt to shut out their conversation, I picked up a current magazine published by Robert Letcher, Dayton Godyn, and Robert Blankman. Therein 1 discovered two charming poems composed by Elaine Baumann, an article on children's books by Geraldine Power, a page of recipes by Elena Strasburg, and clever cartoons by Ida Strasburg and Edward Schneider. Glancing out of the window, 1 could see lofty fire towers rising from the densely wooded area, they brought to mind Robert Iohnson, Fred McCullough, Robert Phipps, and William Howard who had entered the forestry service. At Miami the plane was carefully checked by Arthur Zimmerman, Norman Krieger, and Charles McFeaters. When 1 walked to the admini- stration building, I was greeted by Catherine Cuddahee, Dorothy Finley, Iane Howell, and Maud Hindle, who were busily typing weather reports. Also in evidence were Bill Beales, Ioe Sorice, and Edwin Beehler, who now had positions as accountants. Soon we headed for the Niagara Falls airport. Upon arrival, 1 sum- moned a taxi and, after recovering from the shock of seeing Teddy Atkinson as a cab driver, turned my attention to the rapidly approaching city. In the course of our snail-like pace down the street, we narrowly missed hand- some police-officer Larry Neville, who was trying to sell a ticket to the annual policeman's ball to that prosperous citizen and faithful husband Richard Edwards. We also barely missed colliding with Herbert Millville's dairy truck, driven by Alan Strasburg. In a short time 1 was once more looking at my Alma Mater, which had been skillfully remodeled by Iohn Jones, Robert Fry, and Ralph Fose, famous architects. 1 saw crowds of people arriving for the reunion and being photographed by Edward Perry and Herbert Deweese. Among these groups were the following famous personages: Winifred Wendt and Marjorie Stokes, who had just finished redecorating Buckingham Palace p Iames Shields and Norman DeVantier, who had recently submitted to the United States Army plans for a new bomber 3 and Iean Starkey, whose drama, The Old Homestead, had been a huge success. The cast of this play had .31 55 Ig.. included Donald Bolender, Raphael Roftle, Anna May Reho, Norma Sage, Lucille Morrisette, Violet Parent, Warwick Butler, and Clark Rickard. Iust arriving for a bit of reminiscing were Leona Sherwood, Phyllis Marshal, Mildred Keys, and Betty Iennings, who had acquired their millionaires and were consequently attired in the latest fashions designed by Genevieve Wojtowic. In the school I noticed a list of teachers on the bulletin board that included Shirley Hayden, Grace McKown, Beatrice Newton, Helen Town- send, and Iohn Quinn. The physical education department was represented by Donald Hull, Betty Frantz, Colyn Cooper, and Agnes Glaser. Finally reaching the auditorium where the reunion was being held, I gave my attention to the speakers about to be introduced by Edwin Bremar, the school's principal. The first of these were chemists Dan Campbell, Kenneth Ditzel, Morris Embury, and Sam Kochian. A remarkable demonstration was next performed by Grace Stipp, Virginia Kean, and Mary Peterson, renowned beauty culturists, upon attractive socialites, Dolores Burns, Marion Guyer, Rita Wile, and Dolores Gaffney. A terrific commotion suddenly caught my attention. In one corner Doctors Richard Albert, Iocyline Webber, and Russell Maggs were vainly trying to arouse two patients. They were being assisted by nurses whom I recognized as Edith Rounds, jean MacFarlane, Mary Green, Margaret Mort, Gladys Bryan, and Ruth Erck. Doctor Albert had been trying a new anesthetic of his which had seemed very effective until he had been unable to awaken the patients. YVe were then entertained by a special broadcast from Chicago, an- nounced by Robert Brown, which included Iean Miller of the Metropolitan, accompanist Mary Hartman, accordianist Helen Iurkin, and impersonator Rose Saflire. Following a short discussion on Social Service given by Alice Griffin, Frank Dawson, Francis Cummings, and Alice Robertson, we enjoyed the music of Bob Keller's all girl orchestra. Its charming members were Marilyn Lammerts, Muriel Page, Myrle Benjamin, Winnie Temple, Garnetta Vivian, and Alice Adamec. Agnes Winters, his petite vocalist, sang two new numbers by Leonard Thaler and Richard Reid, and the Swing Sisters, Gertrude Kline, Alberta Benson, and lane Ziemendorf, gave the newest version of Oh, Iohnnieln After the broadcast, the final feature of the day was a 'beneficial talk on Advice to the Lovelorn by Robert Babbitt and Orland Hamel, whose numerous books on this subject had won wide acclaim from the sweethearts of America. This brought to a close the most remarkable day in my life. As I departed from the school, I was happy in the knowledge that each of my former classmates was doing his best, as an American citizen, to make America a finer place in which to live. .

' t . . . . . lhe hohclav a Jarentlv or1 finatecl in the Roman l'loraha which was es- . PI . E talwhshetl as a festival in 238 B. C. ancl which was celeliratecl each year from April 28 to .Way 3. ln Europe it was long the custom on this clay for people to start hefiore clawn u bon excursions into the fields anal woocls anal to return laclen l with flowers anal heautiful lmoughs. In country villages the gayly clecoratetl maypole was the center of attraction almout which the happy villagers tlancetl. Thus it can he seen that Slay Day has long heen a festival of ioyous activity. ln the past six years at LaSalle, Flay Day has heen a significant event. At first there were games anal paracles in which all senior high school stuclents participatecl. At the present time the festivities have heen extendetl anal have hecome more elahorate. From the senior class a king ancl queen anal their attenmlants are chosen. It is the cluty of the sophomore anal junior classes to act as their court anal to present variecl entertainment to the rulers. A contest is arrangeml which inclucles hoth athletic events anal the presentation of' original plays. A spirit of tense excitement ancl expectation is present at all times as the memhers of' hoth classes strive to acltl points to the class score. The festivi- ties close with a clance in the evening at which a floor show is presentetl hy each class as its last contrihution to the entertainment. After a close survey of' the points, the Alay Day trophy is awarclecl to the winning class which holtls it until the next year. It is easy to unclerstantl why all classes in the senior high look eagerly fiorwarcl to Flay Day as a pleasant holiclay from scholastic activities. iq 44 if ,..1., M, 5., .

The affirmative team was composed of Betty Frantz, Dan Campbell, and lean Starkey. The negative side of the argument was presented by Edison Mt. Pleasant, Winifred Wendt, and Foster Bentley. The members of both teams had had no previous experience in debating, however, coached by Mr. Barlow, they made a creditable showing in the Niagara Frontier Debating League.

The experience which the students have shared here will help them to become more intelligent citizens and more efficient leaders. The Council, composed of the otlicers from the senior high home rooms, meets every Monday morning to discuss the problems which have been suggested in class meetings. This year the principal project was the encouragement of school spirit, and its success was shown by the increased attendance at games, debates, and entertainments. The enthusiasm of the student body was clearly evident when nearly one thousand Scotty pins, representing the wearer's support of the basketball team, were sold.

Weekly class meetings ollfer them an opportunity to discuss condi- tions that are new to them. It is here that they learn parliamentary procedure and gain the ability to express themselves upon topics of school interest. Some of the most spirited campaigns are waged in the junior department at the time that the officers of the Iunior Council are elected. Each year the Iunior Council lends its support to the projects sponsored by the Senior Council. Such training secures cooperation between the departments of the school and promotes effective student government. 1 u , rj V SENIOR cm UNICIL is JUNIOR COUNCIL ,.,,I57Ih..

In line of duty the squad prevents congestion and maintains quiet and order in the halls. The members are students from the senior department who have been chosen for their ability to secure these objectives. With the advice and assistance of Mr. Schwinger, Captain Sidney Walton has directed a capable staff of officers during the past year. The gold and brown insignia worn by the officers identify a group of workers who help to make LaSalle the pleasant school it is.

The members are students of the Senior High School who have volunteered their services in this phase of school life. As its objective the Council has the promotion of safety in all scholastic activities. This year the Council has continued to perform excellent work. At frequent intervals the Committee on Safety Bulletins has prepared reports for all home rooms upon the subjects of safe driving, fire hazards, and other important topics. Thus, the organization has made an effort to help in solving one of America's problems, the prevention of unnecessary accidents. Q .31 58 Ig..

Mr. Auchmoody Kenneth Beales Bill Beales Leonard Thaler HERE are a number of organizations in the school that are formed to serve the student body and the public. Such a group are the members of the stage crew. Under the direction of Mr. Auchmoody the boys have spent time and eH'ort to learn the functions and operation of the varied stage facilities so that each program may be a finished production. Besides this they have demon- strated considerable ingenuity in the construction of the properties required by some dramas. Although much of their work is done behind the scenes, their efforts are invaluable to the final success of any school presentation. ..,,I 60 lc., COUNCIL OF USHERS QE.,qEW.w, 5' ..,kf,v , f, i NEWQJ - f My 'Bk-f :W ':.1- ..

Its membership consists of thirty-five musicians directed by the baton of Mr. Bruce Filby. Through his untiring efforts LaSalle has produced a band equal to any in the Niagara Frontier. The stirring music rendered by the Band at football games is one example of its splendid contribution to the life of the students at LaSalle. The members provide a striking picture in their brown and gold uniforms as they form a huge letter L on the gridiron during the half. Hundreds of students have marched into assemblies to their stirring music. However, the glory of Band Day crowns all events. Each year the LaSalle Band plays host to the Niagara Frontier Bands. It is a colorful festival which everyone enjoys to the utmost. We of LaSalle owe much to Bandmaster Filby and his musicians. It is, without doubt, one of the most appreciated organizations of the High School.

Miss Gray has organized an orchestra for junior high students and one for senior students. In both orchestras the young musicians are given the opportunity to develop their ability, to increase their knowledge of music, and to learn how to become an integral part of a musical group. Besides this, the members gain valuable experience by participating in assembly programs, evening entertainments, and the Music Festival. Thus, the music department is to be congratulated for its part in discovering and developing musical talent in our students. -QI 64 Ip.. BAND ORCHESTRA ..,,I65IF., CHOIR ECOGNIZED as the most talented group of students in the music depart- ment, the Senior Choir richly deserves any credit which may be bestowed upon it. Comprised of twenty-eight students chosen for their vocal ability, it has won the favor and admiration of all. During the past year, this organization has played an important part in the outstanding musical presentations at the school. They took part in the Christmas assembly which portrayed the Holy Christmas story. In the afternoon, just before the Christmas holidays began, these songsters wended their way through the halls of the school dispensing cheer through the medium of carols. Preceding Easter, members of this group demonstrated their outstanding ability for solo work when they were chosen to portray memorable characters in a presentation of the life of Stephen Foster. Their painstaking efforts were rewarded by great enthusiasm on the part of their audience, and the concert was a complete success. At the Music Festival the choir presented a collection of well-chosen songs which met with great approval.

Under the supervision of Miss Arlene Gray, the total number of members from both the junior and senior departments was approximately two hundred and forty. There were really three groups belonging to this fine chorus. Besides the regular Senior Chorus, a group of ninth grade girls and a number of seventh and eighth grade students contributed their share to the activities. Although each of these musical units was an individual organization, they frequently joined together to give distinctive renditions of familiar songs. Among the most notable activities in which the choruses played an important part were the concert, presented in March, and the Music Festival, held the first week in May. The former was a realistic presentation of the life of Stephen Foster and was rendered with a finesse which ordinarily would be expected only from far more experienced choristers. The Music Festival, always an impatiently awaited event, was also a tremendous success for our young vocalists. Their solo numbers were received with much enthusiasm, and they gained excellent experience through singing with the massed choruses of the city. fa? 9 J if J, xr, YV' L NN .Vg .YY Xw'Vf yr if 'IK'-.

P. A. project. A deficiency in funds caused work to be suspended in 1956, and building operations on the project were not resumed until a year later. At last the stadium was completed in 1958. The first football game of the 1959 season between LaSalle and Niagara Falls was chosen as a fitting occasion for the dedicatory ceremonies. The grandstand and bleachers were filled with spectators in expectation of the event, but inclement weather caused a postponement of the ceremonies. The formal dedication took place on October 14, 1959 when LaSalle played its second home game of the season against Kenmore. As the crowds of football enthusiasts filed into the stadium, they were entertained by the bands from Niagara Falls High School and from LaSalle. A colorful picture was then created as the bands and the football players paraded upon the gridiron. In a short speech Mr. Peet welcomed the spectators. Representing the students, Iohn Hickey of Niagara Falls High and Robert Babbitt of LaSalle High emphasized the appreciation of the students for such a stadium. Mr. Strough spoke as the representative of the Board of Education and dedicated the stadium to youth and good sportsmanship. The official ceremonies were concluded when Mr. Hatch led the massed bands and the audience in the rendition of America.', .af SQ U A D FOOTBALL A SALLE had proved that it could produce strong football teams by an impressive record in three years of non-league competition. Upon this basis our school was invited in 1959 to become a member of the Niagara Frontier Interscholastic Football League. Our record in the first season of league competition was highly satis- factory. The players showed their ability in the first contest by defeating a strong eleven from Niagara Falls High School. LaSalle played its second game under lights and won impressively from Tonawanda. However, the four games that followed were played against stronger, more experienced teams and resulted in defeats for our fighting stalwarts. In the last game of the year several players who had been injured returned to the line-up, and LaSalle pushed over a touchdown in the last few minutes of play to tie the game with Lockport. Some members of the team were selected for outstanding ability when the All-Star team of the League was chosen. Captain Sid Walton and Don Miller won places on the second team 5 Bentley, Iohnson, and Sorice were given honorable mention. Thus, it was apparent that LaSalle could produce good players and could look forward in the future to much better seasons on the gridiron. Coach .... . Mr. Milton Krum Assistant Coach . . .

Robert Babbitt BASKETBALL A SALl,l5'S entrance in the St. Lawrence Basketball League is important for many reasons. Although the tinal results this year placed our team at the bottom of the league, the squad gained the respect of all teams and of basket- ball enthusiasts. The team gained much in their competition with more ex- perienced players. They have learned to keep fighting when the going is toughest, to accept the bad breaks, and to come back with renewed vigor in an effort to win. These principles will be valuable assets to the players when they enter the business world. This year Coach Bernard Manfred was confronted by a difficult task too. He had been transferred from Trott to LaSalle and was assigned the work of developing our basketball team. He selected his players and proceeded to instruct them in the system of play which he used. It is significant to note that under his coaching the team rapidly developed and became a threat to even the best and most experienced teams in the league. Mr. Manfred, who has gained the respect and friendship of all LaSalle students through his efforts and genial personality, expressed himself thus about his first year at LaSalle: It was a pleasure to coach the LaSalle basketball squad during its first year in the St. Lawrence League. I have never been associated with a nicer group of --:il 72 Ia-- boys or ones who were better sports. What they lacked in experience they certainly made up in 'scrap,' and their mental and physical fortitude was some- thing of which LaSalle High School can long be proud. The team that laid for LaSalle the foundation of future friendly rivalry in the league is worthy of individual consideration. Captain Albert Saloh was the team's high scorer. His experience, ball handling, and scoring ability were a great asset to the team. Foster Bentley's fine playing was climaxed in the last game when LaSalle lost by only one point to Lockport. His cool thinking and fine teamwork were commendable at all times. Colyn Cooper must be given credit for the spirit which he exhibited and for his outstanding part in each game. Robert Schrack was a dependable player and was noted for his clean tactics and consistent game when the going was tough. The combination of Richard Edwards and Donald Hull at the forward posts was an effective one. Fred McCullough's effectiveness under the backboard was an advantage to LaSalle in many contests. Though not large in stature, Earl Richardson was one of the best defensive players in the league and scored frequently in the pinches. This is LaSalle's varsity basketball team who deserve the commendation of all students.

Its delegates are the presidents and vice-presidents of all clubs whose roll calls consist of students attending this school. The purpose ofthe Council is to strive for the unity of the entire student body in supporting all school activities. Nlr. Bruce Filby became the faculty adviser, and it was through his ever ready assist- ance and wise counsel that the organization was considered successful even in its infancy. One of the Council's outstanding accomplishments was the establishment of a school reporter whose duties will be to present all announcements, in assemblies, concerning either the school or its students. This otlice was capably filled, during the past few months, by Robert Babbitt. The members also took it upon themselves to launch an extensive campaign to promote school spirit and good sportsmanship among the students. An evidence of their work in this field was displayed by numerous signs and posters, which appeared in rooms and corridors to advertise coming events. It is certain that in future years the group will have an active part in any project that will be of service to the school. . l Nlarion Guver Al hz Iii 4 E 3 l . . -l .
