In the face of overwhelming problems, today's youth will have to possess the qualities of determination, righteousness, and foresight in the completion of the civilized world's dreams-a world founded on democratic principles of liberty and equality, and composed of a cooperative family of nations settling all affairs arbitrarily. To attain these dreams, youth must overcome all detriments t.o progress-recur- ring wars, and the barriers tending to promote enmity among social. racial, and religious groups. As members of t.his progressive multitude, American youth will have a vital part in developing and fulfilling these designs of universal soli- darity. Tomorrow's leaders must be capable of endurance in righteous- ness and aptitude in reconstruction-endurance in righteousness to prevent outbreaks of tyranny and hatred, aptitude in reconstruction to promote a new era of prosperity. For a tomorrow of greater progress and security, Lackawanna High School is contributing to the vast army of youth a confident, well- trained graduating class determined to play an active part in attaining a victory and in contributing to future progress. In theilirfipehdiiig criticail period of the world's return to normalcy, y0uth's successful endeavors will be directly attributed to the scope of their educational background. The brief histories of school life, fondly remembered by all students and depicted within this publication, will serve both as a monument to their diligent efforts at school and as an inspiration during the tense days of momentous decisions in the post-war era. 3 FRANKLIN ANNEX LINCOLN ANNEX fs..--f ' rid-,,,., 2 gl rwww, BERCHMANS J. BOLAND 6 Dedication WI TH the ache of parting spicing the fixed memories and lessons learned of a man who, beloved of all, left his mark on this our school and all who studied here over a score of years, we dedicate this volume to Mr. Berchmans J. Boland. He stamped us with his kindly exacting personality, his un- bending impartiality, his devotion to duty, his sense of high ideals. He saw our problems and ofered kindly solutions in a spirit of humane under- standing. He gave us sound leadership that we could trust. Thousands of Lackawanna graduates-hundreds today distributed across the globe in the conflict for democracy-join us in saying we arethe better for having associated with a man who believes and lives this: Let each man think himself an act of God, His mind a thought, a breath of Godg And let each try, by great thoughts and good deeds, To show the most of Heaven he hath in him.

These faculties will be vital in the successful pf' solution of many problems. Because the nations of to- Af morrow will be interdependent economically, America? S W f youth must design its economic status in terms of the wh K A world. Before normalcy may be resumed, prejudice and hate between victor and vanquished must be destroyed by the establishment of dependable governments that will prove beneficial to the vanquished nations and provide security from aggression for their world neighbors. Following the settlement of these problems by the foresight of active citizens, America and the world will begin an extensive program of development in science, medicine, transportation, and other phases of endeavor to carry mankind to its greatest development. Before this objective is attained, the obstacles will be many and varied and will require ceaseless efforts and boundless endurance. Many will seem insurmountable and for a time '1 will defy the best efforts of Americans everywhere. Then will 2 America's will to win and good-natured humor break through to provide respite from the crushing weight of these ff! fl l problems. Perhaps we shall call our temporary failures a X ! result of bad luck. Or perhaps, more humorously, we shall blame the gremlins, creations of the Second World War. N . v To these troublesome little creatures, causes of unaccountable is -- ' ' discomforts for our aerial pilots and also for the students , i f f who lose their school assignments, fail examinations, and 5 suffer other torments, may be attributed the mistakes due X f to quirks of fate or lack of foresight. Lackawanna High School, with countless other educational XX institutions of the United States, is developing its youth in the abilities that will make them leaders in all fields of ac- complishment. The courses of study provide a well-balanced 0, education. Languages, mathematics, art, sciences, and vo- cational arts are all planned to provide skilled workers for g greater development in the world of tomorrow. These im- . portant studies are intermingled with entertaining diversions in art, music, athletics, and drama- tics to provide a well-developed educational background necessary for tomorrow's citizens. Aroused by past events, aided by a greater understanding of prevailing problems and a clearer vision of tomorrow's world--a peaceful, harmonious and progressive world-youth will confidently march forth as one to fashion a new and greater civilization for themselves and their posterity. 12 in QQ 'WX A sssl 1212 e 3 i + 'zo' Q Y, ,VLV , A N.. 2 .g.ev,,4,,fX5 - ' 'ws Q 2 5 Q lex W A S M ,K LEO A.

As everyone rejoiced the Birth of Christ, many were softly touched by sorrow when one life so dear to them ended. Only a memory now remained of a true companion whose sincere and cooperative spirit endeared her to the hearts of her many friends. Her sparkling and vivacious manner brought her a host of new ac- quaintances among her classmates. In addition, her cheerful performance of daily tasks imbued her with an air of quiet gaiety. We, the Class of ,44-, shall always remember and cherish with pleasure and affection the genuine friendship given to us by one from our midst. 20 MYRON BOGAN, President Bagan A jerk and a jar You get in Bogan's car.

To assure the future achievement of all the ideals of present planning it will be necessary to have a generation of young Americans who are physically and mentally able to undertake the task before them. It is, therefore, the objective of our classes to provide today's young Americans with this invaluable education. One phase of the curriculum, social studies, provides us with a keen sense of judgment in dealing with affairs of state, country, and world. By studying history we will profit by past mistakes and will also learn those processes of governmental function and social and economic relationship which have been successfully carried out in the past. Since a common tongue is essential for unity among the peoples of a nation, the study of the Eng- lish language is an essential part of our education. Then too, since the literature of a country is often the key to the character of its people, we gain an understanding of those qualities of the American people which have contributed to the greatness of this nation. The study of English alone, however, is insufficient for the broad viewpoint necessary for our consideration of other countries in our plans for the future. By learning to converse in a foreign tongue andby studying the customs of foreign countries, young Americans are building a foundation for friendly relations with many of the nations of the world. Inquisitive minds, developed in our science classes, provide us with a desire for experimentation. This characteristic of curiosity may prove beneficial in many fields of research. Although the pos- sibility of advancement in this way is foremost in the scientific fields, experimentation is not exclu- sive to science. Because the possibilities and opportunities for experimentation are limitless, the future may see our country and world equipped with entirely new political, economic, and social systems. One of the most vital factors in building our future is determination, developed in our mathematics classes. Solving a difficult algebra or geometry problem contributes to perseverance with which we must combat all other problems of present and future. Mathematics also fosters the development of accuracy, which must be a characteristic of future citizens. A study of the arts is an essential part of our education, for it will play an important part in creat- ing a civilization having an appreciation of the fine arts. In our study of drawing and music we gain a knowledge and an appreciation of the invaluability of culture. Another class which helps to provide us with a better appreciation of one phase of the American way of life is the home economics class. We realize that the happy, well-planned home life of a people is reflected in the character of their nation. This fact emphasizes the value of domestic harmony. In home economics we learn the practical routine of homemaking and also the value of proper diet. The knowledge of the latter factor will help to develop the physical perfection of the American people. Through home economics, therefore, students gain a basis for establishing practical and efficient American homes. In the commercial course, students attain a knowledge of shorthand, typewriting, bookkeeping, business law, and similar business studies. Since almost any undertaking Cwhether the operation of a small company or the management of the complicated business of governmentj requires an orderly sequence of operation, a knowledge of business procedures is necessary. An education in the various phases of the commercial course, therefore, provides youth with an understanding of orderly busi- ness transactions. Vocational courses, another essential part of our education, offer invaluable opportunity for ac- quiring much of the practical knowledge so important in building' our future. Since aviation is of tremendous importance, pre-flight classes have been incorporated into our curriculum. Their main purpose is to provide our students with a basic training which will be beneficial to them in the aero- nautical age of the future. Of equal significance are the mechanical drawing and blueprint reading classes which prepare future draftsmen and architects for post-war industrial progress. The machine shop, in turn, interprets the blueprints by constructing precisely the project embodied in the plan. The demands of industry for skilled labor will be met by the man power supplied by the Lackawanna High School vocational classes. In our classes we are schooled in every phase of learning so that we may be prepared to assume the responsibility of building our future. We must preserve for posterity the opportunity for scholastic training which has been ours by striving to protect and enrich the institutions of a government which has given us this gift of education. - 56 INN ART MMCY VULUIIS IN l'I'ZlIl l'1K l' IIARNH !l'I' UI 'l'Hl'1 SICASUN Y.X'l'I'IR 1'Ul,UIl Q fofgigx W wit W L N X l l l'l'RFI llICNIIlll.XXll'l'h HISTORY AMERICAN HISTORY GEE !

America's call to arms had taken a major toll of the members of last seasonis varsity and nearby factories had absorbed Lackawan- na's experienced athletes. Part time work at various trades had limited the recreational time of students who had been active on the hardwood court. Coach Del Fisher took hold of the reins at just such a formid- able period of Lackawanna's athletic history. The inexperience of the boys who reported was offset only by their self-confidence and eagerness. Their optimistic View of the basketball problem provided them with the spur of confidence which carried them Assistant Coach, through the gruelling schedule of the Niagara Frontier League. Football-Basketball , , JOHN PANCZYKOWSKI As in previous years, several fine players were revealed at the initial practice sessions, but actual league play showed a completely new array of outstanding players. As it turned out, each game was played in a radically different manner and served to unnerve opponents and spectators alike. Opponents Were unnerved because their defense was repeatedly shattered by some Lackawanna lad's inspired play from an entirely unexpected quarter. As may come of cooperative group training, the team developed into an efficient machine of youths. However, they still maintained the initiative and capability to act as individuals. These qualities served invaluably to provide an unpredictable game as far as excitement was concerned. The team followed a daily schedule of serious training and further augmentation of self-confidence vital to successful play and final victory. VVith preparedness at an end, Lackawanna began its active basketball career. Comprising the squad were Regis Bala, John Szenina, Lawrence Smith, John Hodynski, Anthony Corral, and an enthusiastic group of others. In the initial game of the series, Lackawanna lost to Tonawanda by a score of 33-34. Several games were all played short by the Ridge Riders, each score lacking a point or two of making a victory. Lackawanna 39-Kenmore 40, O. L. V. . Academy 25-Lackawanna 22 were typical scores of the first half of the series. Yvhen well into the second half of their schedule, however, the victory- seeking Blue and Gray hit their stride, defeating Kenmore 34-32. From then on it was give and take. Lackawanna High lost to North Tonawanda 42-29 and then defeated Lockport 28-23. In an exciting tussle the Tonawanda Five toppled the Steelmen 42 to 40. Up to the termination of league play Lackawanna played odd ball-defeating O. L. V. 41 to 30, losing to N. T. 41 to 28, and defeating Lockport 42 to 36. 11 ., The ,43-'44 basketball scores are all history, but the self-confidence and fighting spirit of the ...t-,Q f - , squad members have still to make history in the K g near future. l.i V. . if A A In the attainment of victory and establishment of peace these qualities will be reflected in the Coach of Basketball efficiency of their efforts on battle front and post- DELZON FISHER war front. 70 SPEAKING OF SPORTS SEPTEMBER 1944- rolled around, and at Lackawanna High football was to reign supreme for a full quarter year. Coach Bukaty and Assistant Coach Panczykowski began gathering potential football players with which to threaten the district championship. Reporting for the first practice sessions were such enthusiasts as Jim Tarquin, Dutch Schultz, Steve Schultz, Ed Wawro, Louis Spelich, Ed McCann, and a group of others who were to comprise the full strength of L. H. S. on the gridiron. Daily practice sessions on the field were not unusual as the members mastered the rudimentary technique of foot- ball-blocking, tackling, kicking, broken-field running, and passing. All through these sessions, the careful gauging eye of the coach chose the outstanding prospects for the first team. With a starting lineup fairly well established, the team was developed into a machine of mutually dependent youth. Spike shoes dug deeply into turf as the team practiced the precision covering plays. Steady development of the team on the field followed long practice sessions and confidence grew with these weeks of constant practice and training. Coach of Football STANLEY J. BUKATY necessary for completion of yard- The first league game, the object of the team's hard work on the practice field, arrived with a bright autumn sun, a brisk lake breeze, scudding clouds, and waving pennants. The team nervously awaited the hour. Game Time! Swift Jimmy Tarquin received the spiraling kickoff. His teammates gathered around to help move the ball down the field. The contagion of the enthusiastic clamor and suspense, and the thrill of seeing daringly executed plays spread throughout the stand. Our team charged towards the goal posts. The Steelmen regularly provided just such typical games during the entire football season. St. Mary's Eleven fell unwilling victim to swift Lackawanna in the first encounter of the season. In the second game of the series, the Steelites lost to Kenmore, the district champion. Coming back swiftly, the Blue and Gray trounced North Tonawanda 13 to 0. On a muddy field, Canisius nosed out the Lackawanna High School team by a score of 7 to 0. Playing sparkling football, the high school team overshadowed the Lockport team in a smashing drive with a score of 18 to 0. Lackawanna fought stubbornly in the last two games of its schedule. The boys fought North Tonawanda to a standstill 12 to IQ and lost to Kenmore. The Lackawanna High School football enthusiasts thus closed the season with four victories, three losses, and a tie. VVith the close of the football season came the satisfaction of all players in their best efforts on the gridiron. From the months of close companion- ship and cooperation grew a love for the game. The active show of sportsmanship and cooperation on the gridiron and a wealth of other benefits derived from participation in this sport guarantee football top billing in the extracurricular program of Lackawanna High School.

The world war being waged today requires physical endurance of the highest degree. The new style of warfare employed by the warring nations demands a multi- tude of healthy men. Then, once victory is achieved, the world will have to shake off the lethargy of international disorder and go forward into a'greater era of civilization. Healthy, strong, intelligent Americans will be the decidingfactor in the complete recovery from blight to prosperity. To provide the post-war world with healthy youth, boxing was carried out on a greater scale than ever before in the athletic curriculum of Lackawanna High School. The students were taught the manly art of defense-inestimably important in the present struggle. Competition was provided by matching the winners of the several divisions in elimination tournaments. In the final bout Ed Wawro, from the Main Building, was pitted against the Lincoln Annex champion, Lou Spelich. A terrific battle ensued before the final outcome rendered Lou Spelich victor. These activities provided wonderful entertainment for the spectators, while the participants acquired valuable knowledge of tisticuffs, though perhaps at the expense of a few bruised jaws. Also enjoying great popularity at Lackawanna High was intramural bowling. Since bowling af- fords an opportunity for all interested students to participate in a highly enjoyable pastime and also offers occasion for individual prominence, the boys welcomed this competitive sport. The students of Lackawanna were excellent material for a successful bowling league. Stan Bukaty, athletic director, undertook the formation of teams and soon the local alleys rocked to the sound of strikes, As scores mounted so did the enthusiasm of the teams. Captain Gene Izzi's team provided the most outstanding competition in the league. William L1ddell's lads led Gene's team a merry pace before bowing to Gene's skill at scattering pins. All league members enjoyed participating in this mild, but entertaining diversion. Each player showed surprising ability in knocking down the pins, but the cooperation shown as a team was compensation enough for the time spent at the alleys. The value of all activities tending to develop youth physically in these wartime days cannot be overemphasized. They provide healthy men for the liberating armies of the United Nations. Beyond that, the future prosperity of the world will be directly attributable to a healthy body of citizens. The present is influenced and the future is guaranteed by the steady output of healthy Americans from this nation 's school system of athletic development.

YOUTH today bear the burden of the World of tomorrow upon their shoulders. To prepare them for this grave responsibility, two essential requisites of democracy-cooperation and leadership-are developed in them. The former requisite, cooperation, has been admirably manifested by the work of the cheerleaders. In split second timing one group yells L-a-c-k-a-w-a-n-n-a,l' another Team, Team, Team , together their efforts form a loud, impressive cheer. At the games the cheerleaders demonstrate the second requisite. With swift movements of arms and legs and powerful shouts they lead the students in cheers like Hail Lackawanna, Hail and On to Victoryfl The cheerleaders have developed their qualities of cooperation and leadership by many hours of voluntary practice spent in improving old cheers and composing new ones. Attired in their Blue and Gray, the varsity quartette and the junior varsity sextette have transmitted their contagious vim, vigor, and vitality to the eager student body, uniting them in a common spirit-a brisk spirit which has spurred the team on to victory. During the past sports year, influenced by the cheerleaders' enthusiasm and their faith in the team, the spectators have inspired the Steelmen to greater accomplishments on both gridiron and court, bolstering their wavering spirit in defeat and augmenting and sharing their jubilation in victory.

Can it be that we, the youth of today, shall encounter another struggle for humanity? Certainly not, if we marshal our intelligence now so that in the future it will serve our piirpose. Our extracurricular activities play a definite role in our preparation for the achievement of post-war plans, for they acquaint us with the principles of cooperative and con- centrated endeavor. The club receiving the students' most enthusiastic support is the Glee Club, which presents en- tertaining and sparkling programs at the assemblies. The members are also credited with participat- ing in the solemn Christmas Pageant and the festive programs of Letter Day and Class Day. These presentations not only benefit the audience, but the members themselves gain invaluable experience in public entertainment. Closely connected with the Glee Club are two other musical organizations, the Band and the Orchestra. The band members, directed by Mr. Koch, spend hours in preparation for the highlight of their musical season, the annual band concert. In addition, their music adds zest and spirit to our basketball and football games and to civic celebrations. The orchestra, under the supervision of Miss Twist, specializes in renditions of popular music for assembly presentation. This group also contributes the musical portion of the Spring Play and Varsity Show and musically complements the graduation exercises. As music is an element of culture, so too are the works of literature. Library Club members attain an understanding of problems of race and culture and an appreciation of literary works by reading books on various subjects. They also obtain information about the functioning of the library and have the opportunity to operate it themselves. The maintenance and upkeep of books is an added responsibility of the members. This club has helped to acquaint its members with the value of liter- ature and its importance in the future. Realizing the need of science in the post-war world, Science Club members are preparing a founda- tion for work in this field. Scientific books are read and discussed, and then information is compiled and through experimentation results are observed. Through practice the members develop their minds to an accurate and systematic functioning. The general purpose of school clubs is to provide students with experience of value to them in the future.To this end, the Commercial Club has stimulated its members, interests in business enterprise. By witnessing the operation of various business organizations, the members acquire a fuller under- standing and clearer conception of business principles which will act as a basis for future planning. A comprehension of Spanish affairs is derived from participation in the activities of the Spanish Club. The seiores and seioritas sing Spanish folk songs and attain an appreciation of Spanish culture and its contributions to American life. By furthering their knowledge of the Spanish language, art, and music the members help to advance Pan-American relations and develop a friendly attitude toward Spanish-speaking people. Entertainment of a different kind is enjoyed by those who indulge in dramatics. The students are furnished the opportunity of portraying their talents in the theatrical field. While in preparation for a production each member cooperates fully so that the program will be Worthy of recognition. Continuous practice in dramatic expression bears fruit when members display their talents in all dramatic productions throughout the year. Another notable organization is the Camera Club. This group has focused its attention on all stages of photography. In spite of an occasional gremlin who might impair an excellent picture by some mischievous -prank, the members are achieving success in the science of photography. These extracurricular organizations provide us with enjoyment and develop in us selections of habit, cultivation of personality, and higher educational standards. This foundation, laid by extra- curricular activities, will foster in Americafs young men and women the desire and initiative to achieve fuller, richer living in the future. 80 ORCHESTRA Ifnu' I: Jann-s Dunn, John Chamberlain, Jay Solar CPresidentl, Felix Perez, Michael U-llini, William Vnrey, Louis.Violanti, John Molex.
