IV; Basketball; Soccer; Hi-News IV The March of Time Episode I September, 1955 A group of gay, irresponsible youths gazed at a new world--a stage whose curtain Time had flung wide open so that we, New Faces of 1955, might come into our own as the Class of 19593 However, due to the division of our Company into two parts--one to work in the morning on the senior high's lot, and the other to work dur- ing afternoon on that of the junior high--the breaks did not come our way- We could not organize, though Time marched on--through the school year 1955-36. Episode II September, 1936 Lady Luck smiled. We were transferred from behind the scenes to the sophomore lot. We could now stage our drama in earnest. With Thomas Brodeur as director, John Mazur in the capacity of assistant director, Sophie Gajewski as the press agent, and Mitchell Ziemba handling the box office receipts, the Class of '39 became the understudies to the feature players, the junior class. And Time--enexhorable Time--marched through the second year 1936-37. Episode III September, 1957 We will always remember the 1937-38 season fondly, for it was then that we actually appeared behind the footlights. We put on a novelty performance. For the first time in years, a girl was elected to direct the show--Dorothy Brown. Sophie Gajewski and John Mazur were retained in their former parts as press agent and assistant director, and Leona Sorrell was selected to take charge of the box office receipts. Our first act was the Junior Harvest Dance on Friday, November 19, 1957. Act two consisted of choosing class rings (our success was now as- sured, and we could consider conservative spending) and selecting silver and green for our colors. In the third act, the annual Oratorical Contest, Dorothy Brown came near to stardom when she won third prize. Finally in act four, on June 10, we reached the climax of our per- formance; we gave the graduating class the most successful promenade in the school's history. The highlight of that eventful evening came when our director, Dorothy Brown, was chosen Queen of the Prom! And on--on past this triumph marched Time! Episode IV September, 19358 Bang!--That is the hurricane and the class of 19359 crashing into stardom! With John Mullarkey as our director, Thomas Brodeur as his as- sistant, Stanley Galeziowski conducting our finances, and Sophie Gajewski still the press agent, we knew that we would have an all-hit season. On Nov. 4, the school was invited to meet us in the Senior awing Session at which one of our own company Howard Hare, led his Bunnies in providing the music. In February we held a Senior Valentine Party. Dorothy Brown wonfirst prize in the Preliminaries of the Orator- icals and second prize in the Valley Wheel Contest. In June, dressed as kids and sucking big red lollipops, we turned back Time for one brief day and were children again. On June 13 Class Night, we met for the last time, in an informal group, to review our history and carry out the tradition of planting the ivy. Then--June 14! We seniors, 102 strong, heads high, hearts eager and brave, took our bows to our public and received the fruits of our work--a diploma! The critics had approved of us. From now on we shall strive to succeed on Life's Stage--the whole wide World! We're Finished yet beginning! Time Marches On} PREVIEWS Click! The new time-bridging projector recently invented by STANLEY GALEZIOWSKI starts, and we see on the screen a news-reel that will be news in 1959! The X L Producing Company presents Ludlow Movietone News . At the Floyd Bennett Airport in New York we see FRANCIS BOURCIER after a round-the-world flight greeted by the reporters ELLA MAE GAUDREAU and MARY RODRIQUES. There is our own photographer, STEVEN LUDKIEWICZ, snapping pictures of the hero and the enormous crowd. The airplane used in this flight was designed by VALENTY NIETUPSKI, CHESTER PAINE, and EDWARD DANFORTH, the aeronautical engineers at the airport. In Chicago at the Artists' Convention EDWARD ZIENCINA has just been chosen by FRANK SZCZEPANSKI, the president of the Artist's Association, to succeed Walt Disney in Disney and Company, and RUTH GAUDREAU is pre- sented the first prize for her painting The Easter Parade. The judges were ANNE DEL MASTRO, CHARLOTTE DUDEK, and NORMAN HUTCHESON. The great bass singer, LIONEL BOURCIER, is shown arriving from Paris, France, on the Normandy. He is to appear at the Metropolitan Opera House with the American prima donna, IRENE ALMEIDA. Accompanying him is his booking agent, JESSE HENRIQUES. On the same steamer HELEN RACHMACIEJ and ALGY SHAMEKLIS have just returned after spending five years exploring the African jungles and studying the habits and customs of the African tribes- men. In the big municipal auditorium of Denver, Colorado, we are shown a benefit performance sponsored by STELLA SIOK, the superintendent of the State Hospital, and her staff, MARY COSTA, MARY FERNANDES, DOROTHY BROWN, CLAIRE FOURNIER, ANNA SILVA, and ERMINA SILVA. The show is to raise the funds to enlarge the hospital. The world-famous jitterbug dancer, HAROLD BASSETT, and the second Eleanor Powell, JEANNE VALADE, are the main at- tractions. Also on the program are STELLA STEBBINS, the world's greatest yodeling cowgirl; and LENA TARASKY, professional roller-skater. Who is leading that jazz band of pretty girls? Why, JOSIE ZIENCINA. In a crowded court room in New Haven we hear JOHN GAVIGLIO plead Not Guilty to a breach of promise suit. STANLEY BURKOT, the attorney for the plaintiff, seems sure of the verdict as he addresses Judge HOWARD HARE and the jury consisting of MANUEL VAS, ANGELO CARROLO, JOSE FONSECA, JULIA CIEPLINSKI, CELESTE FERNANDES, and LAURINDA FIECHA. Next we see a flash of the contest given by the American Hairdress- er's Association of which LEONA SORRELL is the president. First place goes to RITA SANTINI. BRUNILDE FOCOSI, Miss Santini's model, has her hair piled high in a crown effect. Others competing in the contest are HELEN LEWICKI, FLORENCE BEAUREGARD, and ANNA CAIRNS. Out West tourists are shown getting a chance to visit the dude ranch owned by VIRGINIA DOSTAL and BETTY JANE WOOD. What good-looking guides and instructors! There are JOSEPH GURSKI, the famous horse-back rider, MARGARET BORTHWICK, the world s champion woman swimmer, and, yes, it is, ANTHONY SALETNIK, the guide who can never lose himself. Flash! We see the launching of a new showboat designed by MITCHELL ZAGRANICZNY. It has every modern convenience, even an up-to-date beauty salon under the direction of PAULINE CASAGRANDA with her two expert hair- dressers, HELEN CMIEL and AMELIA DIAS. Small children will also be able to enjoy the trip because RUTH CULVER and LUCILLE HASWELL, capable nurses, will be in charge of the playroom. This showboat will make its first trip down the Mississippi River on July, 1959. JACK FONTE, the captain strides importantly up the gang plank. His first mate, MITCHELL ZIEMBA, reads him the list of passengers for the maiden trip and we hear the name of the well-known soccer player BELMIRO NEVES. ROLAND CODERRE, a great tenor, will furnish entertainment. ANNE ZWARCYZ, president of the Women's Business Association; ROSE ZAJACZKOWSKI, Congresswoman from Pennsylvania, CHESTER ZABEK, YOLANDA MEI, FRED KRAS, and MATILDA CISLAK are other pas- sengers. Flash! One hundred small children in the Little Children's Home supervised by ASSIDIA SANTOS were saved by the quick thinking of two tel- ephone operators, ANNA POWALKA and JANE HOWES. Miss Santos's assistants FERNANDA SILVA and RUTH MILLER also showed much bravery as they helped the children to safety. In Detroit a group of women research workers are to lecture at the Teachers! Convention on the countries they have recently visited. EVELYN MANONI will speak about Siberia; STELLA MASTALERZ, about Venezuela; and SOPHIE GAJEWSKI, about Tibet. Many interesting facts will be revealed by this group. A new television device has just been installed in Radio City by its inventor WILLIAM JOHNSTON, Ph. D. Now we are able to see in natural col- ors our favorite radio singer, AMELIA NUNES, while she is on the air. FRED TENEROWICZ, a popular radio announcer, has been elected to give a series of talks on television in Radio City. He will be aided by SUSIE MANONI, an usherette. In Madison Square Garden, in fifty-dollar ring-side seats we see TONY ALMEIDA, JACK BERNARDO, and MIKE PAWLIW eagerly betting on which round the Veteran Joe Louis will knock out his latest challenger. Flash! We see the Pacific Fleet’ of the United States Navy ready to leave on a world tour tomorrow. Admiral DAVID WILSON will lead the fleet in the most modern vessel ever built. Accompanying the Admiral are many well-known navy men such as JOSEPH MIAZGA, JOHN MAZUR, JOHN MAGADA, and JOHN MULLARKEY. A farewell address will be given by CATHERINE MACKINTOSH leader of the American Legion Auxiliary. ANNE HNATOW, author of Business Success, has been asked by a com- mittee composedof the following secretaries JULIA KIELBANIA, MABEL WOJCIK RACHEL BUTLER, and MARY NYSZUK, to speak to the business women on Women in the Business World. In Boston a new Governor's Mansion is being erected. FRANCIS TIBBETTS well-known architect, designed the building while LLOYD TOURVILLE, Boston's best contractor, will build the house. Governor STANLEY LIZAK will move into his home as soon as it is finished. BETTY VENTURA, his secretary, and STANLEY TRUCHAN, his right-hand man, have made all the necessary ar- rangements. Flash! Coach Carlton F. Miner has just resigned and JOHN ZWIZINSKI, a '39 graduate, will replace him. Because of the increase in gym classes, FRANCIS BELCZYK will assist the coach. And look who's here! Tiny THOMAS BRODEUR, the new junior French teacher. In Miss Szczygiel's office (Miss Szcezygiel is now touring Europe) we see VIVIAN MARTIN, neat and efficient, handing out slips for boys to see Mr. Joslow. With a blare of trumpets and a roll of drums our newsreel finishes, and we are back in the present. MUSICAL INTERLUDE Class Poem Now that our task is done And the time has come to part Our Ludlow High seems nearer And dearer to every heart. Finding friends so loyal Struggling for success Striving ever onward Has brought such happiness Through twelve short years of learning That have slipped by one by one Have we as students realized Our education's but begun? No one will e'er forget Though the winged hours have flown The hope, the courage, and guidance That Ludlow High has shown. Betty Ventura Class Song Clouds must darken the horizon, Those clouds that come in June, For we must leave the school and books, For other things so soon. Twelve short years have come and gone, And now we must depart, But when we're gone, we'll always know, These years have formed our start. So now we bid a fond farewell We'll miss you, one and all, And gaze with envious eyes at those, Who will return in fall. Norman Hutcheson Class Motto : Finished yet beginning.

What youngsters did most in giv- ing him a headache? Sh! a secret, our faculty. As the lights went out, little Johnny Trapp glanced cautiously about him. Seeing that no one was looking, he slid to the floor and began to saw off the leg of the chair occupied by Leora Smith. She was busy sewing to the plush back chair the coat of the woman in front of her. Simultaneously two screams were heard. The needle had found its mark--and so had the saw! Gladys Elmer and Red Whitmore, angelic-looking children, next interrupted by making their dolls cry several times and Archie Messenger accompanied by a blast on a tiny toy horn. A pretty little girl with blond curls was sitting next to an empty seat, anda furious argument arose between little George Hargreaves, all dressed up in a soldier suit, and Frankie McMahon, as to who would sit by her. Frankie won, but looked out of only one eye at the rest of the show. To and from, to and from the water jar went Dimples Burgess, showing off his new Scout suit, anda great hullabaloo arose when Polar Baird stuck his foot in the aisle and tripped him. Were there no good children in the audience? Yes, Marian Miller and Mary Bocon sat tense and wide-eyed, oblivious to all save the exciting pic- ture, while Kenny Carpenter was sound asleep. After the picture, the master-of-ceremonies (the postman on route 2) walked onto the stage and announced that the amateur contest would now be held. He then read off the names of the persons who had signed up for the contest. Number one contestant was Jackie Joslow with his violin. Hardly had he played the first few bars of Humoresque, when a loud cry was heard. Eleanor Staton ran onto the stage, violin tucked under her chin, sobbing, He played my piece! He played my piece} Waaa. After the two quarreling violinists (?) had been shoved off the stage contestant number two appeared. Mary Cormier began, Oh, Mother, looki Somewhere down in the audience was little Wallie Longmore who disliked mon-— Ologues. Breaking off a piece of his heavy peppermint stick, he took care- ful aim at the gong and fired. Bong! Contestant, or rather, contestants number three appeared. It was a trio--Carlton Miner, Florence Saulnier, and Grattan Rooney. Down by the Old Mill Stream, began Florence. Where I first met you, continued the two boys. After they had concluded, thunderous applause was heard. The next number on the progra m was a young student of the terpsichorean art. Johnny Millane was going to do a toe dance and sing his own accompaniment. Tra la tra la, for I'm to be queen of the May, began he in his Devine (Andy) soprano voice. Bongt A little girl with a huge ribbon tied to her braids next sang... It was Olive Brooks accompanied by vivacious little Yvonne Bergeron. Madolin Cannon and Ida Hubbel came onto the stage in cute Dutch costumes and began their dance of the tulips. In the middle of the dance Madolin got stage fright and ran off. Ida, rather puzzled, didn't know what to do, so she sat down in the middle of the stage and began to cry. The last contestant, Petey Peterson, refused to be pushed from the wings. Ladeez and gen'lemen! In the opinion of the judges, first prize goes to the trio, second to the little Misses Brooks and Bergeron, third prize to our future Jascha Heifitz, Jackie Joslow.

It is impossible to give the results but the team will play with the following schools: Agawam, Amherst, Chicopee, Trade, Classical, Commerce, Easthampton, Enfield, Palmer, South Hadley, Stafford Springs and West Springfield.

For five years Ludlow has been a member of the Western Interscholastic Golf League, and in 1937 the local team defeated all competition. Always has Ludlow been near the top. This year's squad was worthy of the Ludlow colors and played a good game of golf. For the first time in the history of the league each golfer played an in- dividual match instead of joining a partner in a foursome as before. It is impossible to give the results, but the team will play with Chicopee, Enfield, Greenfield, Holyoke, South Hadley, Westfield, and West Springfield.
