It is our sincere desire to leave with the student body some tangible evidence of our activities of the past four years. Consequently we submit Tie Lafayeffe Oracle Yearbook for 194.7 in the belief that others will like to remember With us. ifmal --- Y V- W WY -V Y J. R. Walz came to Lafayette High School as a substitute teacher of mathematics eighteen years ago. Because of his success in teaching and in dealing with young people, he was given a per- manent position on the faculty. At this time he held a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Cornell University and was studying for a Master of Educa- tion degree which he received from the University of Buffalo in 1941. After I2 years of teaching he was promoted to the post of assistant principal, a position he has faithfully, energet- ically and capably filled. He has patiently guided us and has chided or praised with kindly understanding and infinite good humor. Mr.Walz has been a wise Councilor and a staunch friendg we shall always cherish our association with him. To him who guided us with quiet wisdom, we dedicate this book. A ' 9. . CARL S. WALZ dssislarzl Principal of Lafayette High School E are indebted to the members of the faculty. Because of their guidance and help, we now stand before the doorway to higher knowledge and new horizons. We look beyond with hope, for we have been well prepared by a faculty we deeply respect and esteem. Always accessible F A C FRANK R. GOTT ' . CARL S. WALZ . . KATHERINE C. REIF . MABEL SCHULZ .

The monitors have been willing and capable ofshouldering their responsibilities which include opera- tion of the switchboard, running errands in the main office, assisting with the absence lists in Room 8A and helping Miss Borchard in library duties. The monitors operate under the capable direction of Mr, Walz. Much experience valuable in later life is gained from serving in this capacity. The work never fails to be interesting and Miss Rief, Miss Schulz, Mr. Walz and Mr. Gott are patient and helpful during the times when the assumption ofdifferent duties is new and strange. The efiicient services rendered by the monitors is entirely worthy ofthe sincerest Commendation.

Now that these ladders and scaffolds have been removed, we are able to enjoy a redecorated, relighted auditorium and clean walls throughout the school. The lower gym- nasium has been completely renovated. The floor has been refinished and the walls and ceil- ings repainted. New lighting fixtures replace former equipment. New shower rooms have been installed. Our lunch hours have been made far more pleasant and cheerful by the cleaning and repainting of the cafeteria. We are appreciative of the consideration shown by the Board of Education in effecting these improvements. Departmental Changes Several replacements and changes have been noted in various school departments since last year. We welcome Mrs. Warnhoff to the mathematics department of the faculty. We hope that her stay here will be a pleasant one. We extend our congratulations to Mr. Corcoran, one of our ablest business teachers upon his recent marriage. Eight scholarships were awarded by various colleges, universities and art schools to de- serving Lafayette graduates last year. As the Oracle goes to press, a teachers' strike seems imminent'and faculty and students anxiously await developments. E, the members of the class of 1947, stand at the doorway of a new and diH'icult undertakingg that of rebuilding a shattered world. Our task is herculeang We sincerely hope that we can accomplish it.

TO THE SENIORS REQUENTLY letters from Lafayette boys in service reiterated their regret at not having gotten much more out of their high school years. They longed for a second chance which they knew could never come. Whatever you have gleaned from Lafayette is now nearly complete. Perhaps you, too, will have regrets later, prob- ably you have none now. You are confronted with the most challenging times in which mankind has ever lived. War has left wholesale disorganization and disheartening disillusionment in its wake. ldealsseenp 'to have become fogged, an honest approach to the solutioififof seriously menacing problems less and less evident. ' ' ' U It is characteristic of teen-agers hastily to dispose of all really difficult questions by exciting discussion from which they reach conclusions highly satisfying. They are sure that their minds have exhausted all the plausible arguments which can be brought to bear. But they find it disturbing in the extreme to discover that practical application in the light of experience causes the ready-made remedy to bog down disappointingly. Many of the troublesome problems are still there when by good right they should have vanished. Slowly the truth penetrates: only bit by bit with the help of unfailing perseverance and determination can some little impression for the better be made. Into your hands now comes the opportunity to add your bit to the bet- terment of humanity by a life of loyal service to your fellow men. Your education has had one primary purpose-to receive that you may give. Lafayette hopes that it has added something to your mental, moral, physical and spiritual equipment which will enable you down the years to Be of a Good Courage in the uphill battle of life. i With every good wish for that degree of success you so fondly crave, I am, Your Principal and Friend, FRANK R.

III 710 45 SALUTATORY I-IE members of the class of 1947 have long anticipated this evening. Class Night provides the opportunity for parents and friends of the graduating class to come together to spend an enjoyable evening. We extend a cordial welcome on this occasion. Our class is complete tonight for almost the last time before final separation by graduation. After four years of study and association, we are ready to enter a world just becoming accustomed to peace. At Lafayette we have been prepared to cope with problems that may confront us in later life. Thus we leave here with some small knowledge and large hopes to work for a world of harmony. In a few years we will be in a position to participate in governmental affairs through our voting franchise, some of us may even be a part of government. Our efforts must be particu- larly directed toward providing and improving education for the great mass of the people. The elected representatives must be continually reminded that a well informed people is the best defense a nation can have against demagogues that may rise and against those groups who wish to destroy our form of government. The class of 1947 goes out into a world at peace. The extreme personal sacrifices of the past several years are no longer demanded of us. We have, nevertheless, a great responsibility to ourselves and to the future. Our association at Lafayette during the past years has given us a slight appreciation of civic and world problems. This knowledge, we trust, will enable us to become better citizens of the United States of the world. VAiLEDICTORY For the Class of 1947, this is a moment of satisfaction, of regret, of anticipation. It is a moment for dreams. For some, these dreams have already assumed definite formg but for most of us, they are no more than a restlessness, an eagerness, an urge to accomplish some- thing. Many people have helped equip us for this accomplishment. We shall long remember Mr. Gott and his excellent judgment, sound advice and tireless effort on our behalf. Captain Mellen's sound philosophy and genuine concern for his boys and girls endeared him to all of us. We sincerely thank the teachers of Lafayette, working with us and for us, who shared willingly their learning and their experience. These are the people to whom we owe much more than can ever be repaid. Through them, we have faith in our future. We have our armor, our shields, our spears. We are about to set forth in search of a Utopia. But the accoutrement itself is not sufficient to assure accomplishment of our mission. Anal- ogously, knowledge is not an assurance of happiness or success, for alone it becomes a super- Huous thing. We must also know how to apply and enjoy it. We must find the way for our- selves. 4 The Spirit of our school has become a part of us during the past four years. Lafayette has infused in us the principles of decency, fairness and honesty. We are proud to say we attended Lafayette. We are proud to have become a part of all that her name implies. We sincerely hope that she will be as proud of us. Surely she cannot fail to be, if we forever strive towards the realization of the dreams we now hold. Knowledge acts as the means to our endg dreams as the stimulus. We shall not surrender our dreams. They are the quintessence of a finer, higher-minded wor the pr :se o peace universal and everlasting At this closing of a chapter in our lives e r ese ambitions and ideals are the result of impeccable traditions, of eve hlng s d good and untarmshed of honest, refreshing labor. They are Lafayette. i . I I Q V I 5 . . i. . I i i my .xii A y al gratitude to her. We humbly say farewell.

I won't be there to see you, but even the thought of L.H.S. recalls mem- ories of my days at the Old Plant. When I entered, the world was in the midst of a bitter conflict which was daily depleting the ranks of the upperclassmen. Even though our future was uncertain, I faced it with faith and conndence that right would champion over might. Look- ing back to that fall of 1943, I see myself as an awed, timid, curious youth, be-decked with all the trim- mings of an initiation administered by unscrupulous upperclassmen. Be- cause we were walking in a daze for the first few weeks, some kind senior suggested a compass to aid us through the maze of corridors. On October 29, we were first introduced to Cap Mellen at the Masten football rally. His friendly pat on the back and hearty handshake endeared him to all. Our brilliancy could not be subdued and we attained superior heights in the Frcxlzmen Play. Mary Lou Miles and Kent Bunker served as excellent announcers with Winnie Bry- ans, Ruth McVay, Sunnie Kowalski, and Nat Gerstman among the good supporting cast. As a result of the june examinations, I determined to apply myself with renewed vigor to conquer all in the forthcoming term. I returned as a self-assured Sophomore only to be put in my place by thejauntyjuniors. Gerry Keohane, Lucille Aldrich, Rosetta Cooper, Ruth Sorotsky, Pat Korbs, Virginia Wolf, Margot Cohn, Dorian Lloyd, and Margie Thiel began earning their letters for girls' sports. The lmoys gained a strong foothold in the field of athletics. Gordon Hulse, Jack Gugino, Vinnie Privitera and jack Richert rowed and rowed and rowed. Bob Truscott and Tom Schwoli were in the track and cross country races. Beau Brummels With heavy heart 1 began my junior year saddened by the untimely death ofour beloved Cap Mellen. The entire school soon learned that thejuniors were an indispensable spoke in the wheel of achievements. The keen rivalry between rooms 24 and IO helped to make the grand total of over 3600 in the annual Christmas collection. Thanks to the Junior boys, the football team was successful in almost all of its endeavors. I'll never forget the basketball team in 1946. Tom Schwob entertained all the girls between halves. Robert Graf, Mike Mingoia, Al Brown, Michael Guercio, and Charles Caveretta were active in several capacities. Per usual Bob Jokl smoothly stroked to success while John Jacquin dived divinely. Emer- son Rydsynski, VVarren McClive and Gerry Loft also splashed. In the tennis racket Dan Finton earned All High honors. A spirited campaign took place to elect the Junior class officers with the following results: Kent Bunker, president, Patricia Hamilton, vice-president, Marion Arnott, secretary, and Walter Schroeder, keeper of the treasury. Spring brought One Mad Niglzl. Tripping on the light UD fantastic in the musical were Nancy Richards, Eileen Dolan, Ann Holt, Mary Ann Wiggins, Tinker Williams, and Ger- aldine Groat, Gus Pinnataro, Bill Tisdall and Morris Meyers aided in making it a perform- ance never to be forgotten. In the junior Day program Hadassah Nomof gave a superb rendition of Clara da Loon. Melodious melodies were sung by Audre Argyries, Shirley La Flam, and Rea Janet Juvelier. The whole class warbled the tune Janey Sang wrote especially for the occaion. Taking a tip from Frank Buck, the girls kept their dates alive and in captivity until after the prom. Ah yes, '46 was the year in which the junior boys formed a Glee Club. They were received with tremendous ovations. Included in the choir were Ray DeTine, Roland Blackmarr, james Knoer, Donald Whitehead and Chuck Larrison. Seen dashing through the halls were Patrina Aronica, Virginia Herbert, Nancy Carson, Gertie Schwab, Marion Burns, Pat Webster, Joan Ritz, Phyllis Hoffman, Barbara Conklin and Selma Greenberg. Time Marches on! I suddenly came to the realization that American History and 4th year English would not be a snap. After much competition in the Senior Class Elections, Walter Schroeder was chosen Presi- dentg Patricia Hamilton, Vice-President, Dorothy Barone, Secretaryg Robert Carpenter, collector of coins and Margery Castner, poet. Margaret Crawford was selected as the capable Editor in Chiefof the Oracle. Pat Brown and Bob Woerner displayed their artistic talents as co-Art Editors. june Vineberg headed the Literary Department, while Beverly Bambach, Rita Peisachow and Pat Aquilino pounded typewriters. Irving Simon was Boss Man in the Triangle office and was ably assisted by Marion Troyan. VVell-dressed girls around school l The brains FOOTBALL-ah, what a glorious season! The 1947 Eleven was the first team to have played on Turkey Day for years. Thousands cheered the Violets on to a great victory win over Bennett. Carl Markey and Roger Adams were outstanding players while ever popular Don Holland won All High as quarter-back. In basketball, John Zatorski, Tom Schwob and Ken O'Leary helped to make the team win many thrill packed games. Yes sir-we were right on the ball during that season. Cheerleaders were captained by Florele Peters and Russ Webster. Eileen Dolan, Margie Thiel,'Dot Walgate, Kay Jackson, Bob Truscott, Gordon Hulse, Charles julian and Gerry Kolac exercised their lungs throughout the sports calendar. School was cleaned up that year-the painters and redecorators were hard at work. We then had assemblies in the Rainbow Room -alias the auditorium. Peggy Barry, Emogene Keck, Mildred Ey, Shirley Bellinger, Beatrice Short, were some of the energetic souls who faithfully worked for their goo Point UL . A peppy assembly was sponsored by the Senior girls who showed the football team how to behave at a tea formation. Dolly Reid, Josephine Grisanti, Stella Loggia, Audrey Miller, Edna Rogers, Charlotte Ricigliano, Sue Paul, Joan Bowers, Harriet Miess, Josephine In- zinna, Harriet Mandel, Harriet Morrison, and Pat Woerner were some of the participants. At the Senior Boys assembly, the football team demonstrated how they kept fit. We were also honored by a visit from Lower Slobbovia-namely Diminutive Privitera, Jack Ri- chert, Jimmy Madden and Ray Markwardt, Gus Pinnataro and Wally Schroeder gave their version of an operetta. - The social event of my year was the Senior Promenade. The Grand March was led by Marshalls, Tinker Williams and Carl Markey. A good time was had by all. The few remaining months were spent in a rush of unit counting, cap and gown measuring and cramming for the inevitable Regents. Everyone had a good laugh at the humorous things prophesied for their classmate's future. At last the historians could stop banging their heads together at staff meetings and lead a more normal life-they hoped. That long awaited night finally arrived when we received our coveted diplomas and left the halls of the Old Plant until the first alumni meeting. Well, son, I hope you have a gay time in your career at Lafayette but remember to work hard. As Richard opens the door, I must now close. In the name of loyalty, honor and service, DAD ' C las: of '47 HE CLASS POEM NOW IS THE TIME- To clear your minds of horrible thoughts Of war and hate and pain, And laugh and live in happiness Where love will always reign. Forget the days when men had thought Their rule would bring the world A peace from out of darkened depths To which it has been hurled. Let's all forget our fading past And look ahead for light, That fate will bring to each of us Throughout each day and night. The dreams we dream I'm sure will be The future We desire, Just like our favorite memory Of which we'll never tire. Behold the thoughts I have expressed To you in my small poem, Should keep your hearts pressed close to God So it will never roam. MARJORIE CASTNER HE undergraduates of today are preparing to meet the challenge of tomorrows difficult prob- lems. Soon they will pass through these door- ways into a complex world where the knowledge they have acquired will equip them to meet the de- mands of a changing society. 1 49 J if 7+ .fun fi f f ', With the hope of achieving Lima, Top Row-Donald Norfolk, Norman Wayne, Lowell Bolyard, Milton Rosborough, Richard Gay, Michael CHPUIIQ Strand Row-Albert Heithecker, Alfred Reidel, Charles Senf, Donald Terry, Bill Goudyg Third Row-- james Madden, james Berger, Charles Weathebee, Anthony Caruanag Fourth Row-joseph Petrino, Peter Fasonella, Bill Panzica HE ranks of Lafayette students have been swelled by the at- tendance of 30 veterans from the battlefields of Europe, China and the Phillippines. These young men have returned to Lafayette to help complete their educations which were inter- rupted by a long, costly war. Some in- tend to enter college upon acquisition of a high school diploma, others will go directly into employment. Whatever their destination, these young men have shown a fine determination to pass through the doorway of success and achievement. A list of Lafayette veterans together with a very brief resume of their service activities follows. .Ya ROOM 3 Charles Balash Lowell Bolyard james Burger Michael Caputi Charles DeRose Peter Fasanello Richard Finn Richard Gay Harold Kranitz james Madden Donald Norfolk Joseph Petrino Alfred Riedel Milton Rosborough Bernard Thorn Charles Weatherbee Roland Wolfe Milton Volk ROOM I 1 Anthony Caruana Albert Heithecker ' 'ff vw:-H-z',v'1'-vfi Erle Long Ernest Peters Don Terry Norman Wayne ROOM IO Wesley Bowen William Panzica ROOM 24 Vincent Freitas William Gehring William Goudy ROOM 31 A Anthony Licata ROOM 25 James MacKay ITH hopes of not only achieving, but surpassing the high standards set by preceding Lafayette classes, we confidently entered the Ol Plant in the fall. of 1944. During that year the foundations were laid for further achievement in the fields of scholarship, ath- letics, and citizenship. During the summer of 1945 we were stunned and saddened by the death of our beloved Cap Mellen. Though our association with him was short, we feel privileged to have known him. . As Sophomores we became more firmly established as part of Lafayette High School. Members of our class participated fully in school activities. Many of us took part in the musical extravaganza of 1946. Those featured in solo num- bers were Angeline- Mauri, Joanne Harmon, and Petrina Guarino. With a slight increase in prestige we returned last fall for our Junior year, with added responsibilities. Our first project as a class was the annual Armistice Day assembly sponsored by the Juniors. Acting as chairman was Bob Pittell ably assisted by Pat Caplen and Marilyn Funk. At this time Barbara Fabing and Ange Mauri offered musical selections. As is the tradition of former years, competition during the collection of the Christmas Fund was keenest between the two Junior homerooms. All together the juniors collected over 3280. During our three years, we have discovered many outstanding athletes in our midst. Foremost in football were Pete D'Arrigo, Dick Stahl, and Sam Shatkin. Ed Wysocki's prowess was displayed on the basketball court, while Bob Musson and another basketball star, Jack Phillips, showed their ability on the baseball diamond. Not to be outdone, the girls also displayed an interest in various sports. Barbara Henderson, Dolores jarecke, Ruth Bradt, and Ellen Weinheimer were among the most active participants. With these achievements to our credit we look confidently through the doorway to further achievements as the class of 1948. ' 'CSI 2 ff K1--viii 1: t -4 -A , 5 . l 5 .g . - .

Having completed their initial year as an introduction to Lafayette routine, the sophomores are preparing to carry on in Lafayette tradition. The sophomores are eager participants in all branches of extra-curricular activities and have proved themselves an important part of many school organizations.Without the strong support of the second year students our assemblies would not have been so success- ful and their enthusiastic attendance at games helped our teams to victory. They are well versed in the traditions and customs of Lafayette and are helping to uphold theideals established by preceding classes. The second year students are maintaining good scholas- tic standing and are enthusiastic participants in athletics. If present accomplishments are any indication, the sophomores will enjoy success as the seniors of 1949 and the citizens of the future.

PON peering through the doorways of rooms 12, 18, and 23, one may observe the freshmen diligently poring over text books. Gone is the look of bewilderment that characterized the first year students in September, at the time of their informal initiation into Lafayette custom and tradition. Having now acquainted themselves with the corners and corridors of Lafayette, the freshmen can be found patiently memorizing Latin verbs, solving algebraic problems or struggling to do pushups in the gym. They are well integrated into student life and are actively participating in extra curricular activities. The enthusiastic support of the ninth graders in assemblies and at games has served to stimulate school spirit and to assimilate them into Lafayette routine. Besides displaying their mental powers, the freshmen have shown promise in athletics. Because of their accomplishments and because they are being grounded in principles of loyalty, honor and service, a bright future is predicted for the class of 1950.

We, the Oracle staff have l worked conscientiously to produce an account of the varied activities which are the heart ofthe Lafayette we will soon leave. To us the Oracle is the outcome of many hours of plan- ning and working. From sheaves of papers and piles of pictures it has grown to ultimate completion. VVe trust it is a true pictorial copy of the many activities which make Lafayette a growing, thriving school. Now we have moved through the doorway to the completion of our yearbook, l but we shall always carry with us the satisfaction of pro- MARGARET CRAWFORD ducing a yearbook that we are proud to put into the hands Editor-in-Clzity' of the Lafayette student body.

The efforts of each football player contributed to bring Lafayette supremacy among the academic high schools. Donald Holland spearheaded Lafayette's attack with pin-point precision, assisted by ends Roger Adams and Carl Markey. The drives of Vince Privitera, jack Richert and Jim Madden made negligible any offensive ambitions of the opposition. The achievements of the line, which more than rose to each occasion should be mentioned. Tackles Dick Stahl and Jack Gugino stalled effectively any tactics devised by the enemy. Guards Jesse Tronolone and Pete D'Arrigo, though outweighed by the opposition, made up for this lack in speed. Bob Balme was an able and experienced center. Supporting backs were Ray Marquardt, John Barrick, Mike Guercio and Eugene Delano. Line men were Sam Shatkin, Kent Bunker, Ed Wysocki, and Mike Mingoia. OMBINED efforts brought results. Masten Park was defeated in our opening game. Although Lafayette was the only team to score against McKinley, we were defeated by their team, 19-6. On a wet and muddy field Lafayette and Hutchinson battled to a scoreless tie. Riverside and Grover Cleveland were toppled with scores of I3-O and 45-o, respectively. Because of these victories, Lafayette earned the right to play on the Thanksgiving gridiron. The Lafayette eleven trounced a fine Bennet team zo-o and V emerged academic champion. 1 5 , 'Wi THE SQUAD Top Row-Howard VVenzel, Patrick Farrell, John Musalino, Leonard Kelley, Raymond Battista, Truman Curt- hoys, Anthony Tezzi, Robert Anzaloneg Serond Raw-John Zatorski, Eugene Delano, Lewis Cardwell, John Buckley, Frank Broadbent, Edmand VVysocki, Ray Markwardt, YVade Hubbard, Rocco Navarro, Third Raw- Charles Cavaretta, Robert Brooks, Kenwood Bartow, james Madden, Michael Mingoia, Kent Bunker, Jack Gugino, Carl Markeyg Fourth Row-Michael Guercio, Vincent Privitera, Richard Stahl, Roger Adams, John Richert, Samuel Shatkin, John Barrick, Robert Balme, Peter D'Arriggo, Donald Holland ...--l iv- ' Top Row-Roger Adams, Dave Efinger, Robert Jokl,Daniel Finton,Eugene Cremins,Michael Guercio, Don ald Holland, ATI-Il,E'I'ES REPRESENTING VARIOUS SPORTS lnnl..

The complete repainting ofthe room and the installation ofnew showers have greatly increased the enjoyment of swimming classes and interschool swimming meets.
