This year os in the post two years the Caldron Staff has had to work under conditions always brought about by war. But we all did our best and hope we've produced a Caldron to your liking. The following members of the senior class were on the staff: Margaret Dooley, Editor; Glenn Stickel, Assistant Editor; Bill MacBeth, Business Man ager; Orton Cowles, Assistant Business Manager; Lois Griggs, Literary Editor- Jack Stanton, Sports Editor; Donald VanDyke, Advertising; Jim Csepegi, Circulation; Paul Jones, Snapshots; Margaret Brott, Art Work. Shortly after the beginning of the second semester we lost our Assist ant Business Manager, Orton Cowles, to the Merchant Marine. We hope you'll enjoy reading our account of the events that took place at Madison High during the school year 1944-'45. twelve thirteen To identify these little people turn to page 46 Ute £0(j We started out on our four-year cruise in September 1941, with approx- imately fifty-five knowledge-thirsty gobs and waves. We were a little in- experienced and shy, but it didn't take long for us to become acquainted thoroughly with our ship from stem to stern. We were assigned to state- rooms one and two, sent two of our crew to Student Council, and were represented by five in the Scholarship Club. A Saint Patrick's Day Dance in March, one of the big events of the year ,was given by us. After a three-month's shore leave the sailing season again was open, and we embarked for Port Sophomore. We sponsored the first social event of the year, a skating party at Madison-on-the-Lake ,which was a great success. Our mates were well represented in indoor and outdoor athletics. We ended our social events for the year with a Patriotic Dance. We knew upon returning for our extended voyage that it was our duty to sponsor a Junior-Senior Prom, so we set to work selling maga- zines at once, and surprised even ourselves by surpassing our goal. We gave a skating party in November and a dance in March, but the most important event was the Prom given for our guests, the Seniors, at the Madison Country Club in May. Coming back for our final stretch of the voyage, we found that there were only thirty of us left to carry on, some of whom left us during the year to help Uncle Sam win the war. We started the year in the right way by giving a Harvest Dance. In April we presented the play Victory Home, which was well attended. During the entire cruise our crew has maintained an unusually high scholastic standing equipping ourselves for useful pursuits on land. On June first we were forced to say Goodbye to the ship and our fellow mates, and received our diplomas, which furnished us a fair chance to start out in the world as we have watched others do before us. Some of us will leave for the service, and others will remain on the home front, but we will all be working toward a co-operative America and a peaceful world. fourteen Row 1: Alice Rooks, Phyllis Peshock, Merritt Nielsen, Steve Rizick, Stello Lezak, Mrs. Prouty, Bill Alves, Fred Roth, Phyllis Speor, Beverly Horper.

Qecovib lllates The Juniors opened the year by electing the following officers to lead the class: President, Steve Ruzick; Vice-President, Bill Alves; Secre tary, Stello Lezak; and Treasurer Fred Roth. Our representatives to Stu- dent Council were Joyce Schmidt, Phyllis Spear, Merritt Nielsen and Peter Gress. The first social event given by us was a dance for the football boys at the end of the fall season. Later we presented a successful per- formance of the play, One Mad Night, a mystery farce which added a nice bouquet to the Juniors' credit. We participated in most school activities, being especially active during the Bond Drives. Also three of our classmates, Jonnie Lahti, Fred Cornell, and Stella Lezak were members of the Scholarship Club. To end the year the Junior-Senior Prom was held at the Madison Country Club, May 1 1. fifteen unio'i Pia V On Fridoy evening, March 23, the junior class presented a three act comedy entitled One Mad Night. The action of the entire play took place in One Mad Night' and what a crazy night it was! Don Cutter, a playwright, accompanied by Wing, his proverb-quoting Chinese valet, goes to the Cutter mansion, a lonely house in the hills, to complete his latest play in peace and quiet. The house has been deserted for years, a series of mysterious murders having given it the reputation of being haunted. Imagine Don's astonishment when he finds the house tenanted by a number of very strange people, including John Alden, Priscilla, Mr. Hyde, and Lady MacBeth. They are lunatics under the care of Dr. Bunn, whose home nearby has burned down. Assisting the doctor is Mrs. Kluck, a nurse, and also in conspiracy with the nurse and doctor is Artemus Burke, a lawyer. Unknown to Don the lunatics are really quite harmless. Among the inmates is Lucille, a beautiful girl with an amazing story about an inheritance of three million dollars. Don is just about ready to ride to her rescue when his fiancee and her mother put in an appearance with their colored maid, Depression. From this point everything happens including the admittance of Danny Silletto, an actor posing as a murderer, all of which makes the play exciting and hilarious. Mrs. Ralph Prouty, Jr. directed the following cast in their roles: Don Cutter Bill Alves Wing Roy Whipple Priscilla Ruth DeHeck Lady MacBeth Stella Lezak John Alden Peter Gress Mr. Hyde Merritt Nielsen Dr. Bunn Dick Craig Lucille Marcy Frances Hudson Mrs. Kluck Irene Nichols Gertrude Finch Joyce Schmidt Mrs. Finch Gloria Toth Depression Lillian Busch Artemus Burke Kenneth Brockway Danny Silletto Steve Ruzick Having a play sponsored by the Junior Class is something new at M. M. H. S. and we hope that the classes to follow will carry on this new activity. sixteen Row 1: Gladys Orcutt, Jeon Dc Ruberfis, Lucy Hummel, Virginia Dodge, Carol Hohlfelder.

We entertained the student body with a musical program for the St. Patrick's Day assembly. For the annual Stunt Nite we presented an expert radio program. Our Lucky Dance, held on April 13, was well attended. (yeconc) Class seventeen Row 1: Bernice Sperling, Marilyn Wickcrt, Marian Miller, Shirley Rooks, Marlene Hundertmorck. Edith Adorns, Arty Ivone.

Edgewood 24 Madison 12 The opening of school in September brought with it the first football practice. The shortage of man-power was again felt but o squad of twenty-five boys turned out, among them four letter men. They were Captain John Henninge, Bill Macbeth, Roy Whipple, and Tom Csepegi. The Blue Streaks worked hard for two weeks and then met the Alumni, under the lights at Hickok Field, for a practice game, only to lose 12-7. The following week the Blue and White traveled to Geneva for its first Western Re- serve League game. The team came home defeated by the powerful Genevans 27 to 6. With two losses the Streaks went to match wits with the Perry Pirates. The Perry team powered their way to goals in every period and scored twice in the second to win 31 to 0. This came as a surprise as Madison was figured to win. The week of October sixth found the beys again in home territory. The first touch- down was made by Wickliffe but the Streaks immediately retaliated and led 12 to 6 at the half. The Blue Devils however, overtook the lead in the final quarter and went home with a 25 to 12 victory. Next the Streaks journeyed to Chagrin Falls to go down under a 27 to 0 score. Twenty of Chagrin's points were made in the first quarter and the Streaks displayed some fine de- fensive plays in the last half. Another out of town game was with the undefeated Fairport team. Fairport romped away with a 44 to 0 victory. With new enthusiasm the ever fighting Streaks went to Chardon to win their only game of the season. Chardon was kept clear of the goal throughout the game. The Streaks came home victorious, winning 12 to 0. The final game of the season was held at Edgewood. This proved to be a close game, the score being tied 12 all at the beginning of the final quarter. Edgewood, however, scored twice in the last quarter to win 24 to 12. This year our coach was Bill Newby, who soon after the end of the football season was inducted into the Army. He was assisted by Reverend Thomas. twenty-one twenty-two BASKETBALL SQUAD Row I: Som Miller, Dick Dingle, Fred Roth, Gene Hubbard.

For the next game, their opponents were their former team mates, the Alumni. The Alumni seemed to be a little too much for them, and the Blue Streaks lost 28 to 15. For the next game the Streaks traveled to Geneva and, lacking experience, came back defeated 62 to 7. The next week the Blue and White again traveled, this time to Kirtland to come out on the small end of a 52 to 27 score. The ever-trying Streaks went down under a 45 to 20 score the next week against the more powerful Wickliffe. The following week Chardon took home a 34 to 17 victory. With their spirits at a low ebb the Streaks put up a trying battle against their old rivals, Perry, only to lose 23 to 14. Again the Streaks were host to Kirtland, this time to lose 43 to 27. Next they traveled to Wickliffe and lost to the champion Blue Devils, 60 to 38. Fairport wos met on the home floor to take another victory 48 to 35 over the Streaks in the crucial last quarter. Later we played a game with Fairport which had been postponed because of the weather. The Harbor boys won 48 to 16. Determined to win, the Streaks journeyed to Chardon for their second game with them. Although the scoring was close and the team showed more spirit and cooperation than be- fore, they were again defeated by one point. The score was 28 to 27. They played Perry for the last game which proved to be the thriller of the season. The Streaks led the scoring up until the final seconds of play, when the game went into over- time causing them to lose again 30 to 29. twonty-thrcc eiv Boosters Alice Hietonen, Barbaro Rooks, Phyllis Spear, Betty Hoffackcr. This year two new morale builders joined us. They were Alice Heitanen and Betty Hoffacker. We four were kept busy finding transportation and keeping the student body back of our team. Our assemblies were numerous and quite effective. Our team was not victorious but was always in there pitching, and we're proud of them. We managed to get our new uniforms finished for our last game and the receiving of letters. We can also thank Mrs. Prouty, our adviser, and Joyce Schmidt, our substitute, for a very successful year. twenty-four Chip’s Tlews Seated: Sally Hearn, Betty Gottbehuot, Morgoret Dooley.

The staff elected by the club was as follows: Editor, Rose- mary Gress; Assistant Editor, Barbara Hathaway; Business Manager, Jeanne DeRubertis; Feature Editor, Carol Hohlfelder; Circulation Editor, Joyce Schmidt. Our reporters and typists were from the student body and our adviser was Mrs. Prouty. We had a very busy year. Besides getting the paper out every two weeks, we sponsored some activities, the most notable of which was our semi-formal dance in May. We also boast the fact that we were awarded second place in the Stunt Nite Program; our skit was the Fatal Quest. ♦wenty-fivo LIS JIUNES FILLES Row 1: Marian Miller, Marilyn Wickert, Bcrnicc Sperling, Barbaro Frink, Jeanne DcRubcrtis, Virginia Roscncrans, Bernice Paine, Shirley Rooks, Marlene Hundcrtmorck, Sally Hearn, Jonnic Lahti.

The club's purpose is to encourage school spirit and activities among the students of the high school. The officers for the year were Louise DeRuber- tis, President; Rosemary Gress, Vice-President; Lois Griggs, Secretary; and Betty Gottbehuet, Treasurer. The chairmen of the standing committees were as follows: Social, Margaret Dooley; Program, Carol Hohlfelder; Ways and Means, Jane Ann Kubach. We welcomed Mrs. Prouty as our new adviser, and under her leadership the seventy-five members carried on many useful projects — scrap books for the wounded servicemen in hospitals were made; war bonds and stamps were sold; and a school newspaper was sponsored. We sponsored a Football Banquet for the boys to show them that we really appreciated all their hard work and efforts. Another activity which we backed was the Stunt Nite program in which all classes and organizations took part, and which was open to the public. We also had a very successful Pie Social for the student body. The annual Mother-Daughter Banquet was held in May ond was well attended. The Hi-Y Club of '44-'45 started the year with a new adviser, Mr. Elton Mosher, and four new officers: President, Orton Cowles; Vice-President, Jack Stanton; Secretary, Bill MacBeth; Treasurer, Francis Vandervort. Several new members were accepted into the club after having been given the necessary initiation. Some of these officers and our adviser left for the service. They were replaced by Jack Stanton, President; Merritt Nielsen, Vice-President; Eugene Miller, Secretary; Henry Bobitch, Treasurer; and Mr. Raveling was made adviser of the group. One of the recreations we enjoyed was swimming at the Y.M.C.A. in Painesville. When asked to plan a program for Stunt Nite, we went to work and the style show we presented proved to be one of the most interesting events of the evening. Later we had two booths at the Carnival sponsored by the Athletic Asso- ciation. twenty-seven SPANISH CLUB Seotcd: Jim Csepcgi, Mary Kerin, Stella Lezak, Ruth DcHcck, Lloyd Miller.

The French Class under the direction of Mrs. Ellertson formed a club this year. The officers were Louise DeRubertis, President; Sally Hearn, Vice- President; Betty Gottbehuet, Secretary; Rosemary Gress, Treasurer; and Bill MacBeth, News Reporter. The club attended several out-side activities. They went as a group to see the movie, “Song of Bernadette . Later they traveled to Cleveland and heard a lecture on the rehabilitation of France at the Women's City Club. Members of the club participated in the Annual Christmas program. They also added to the enjoyment of Stunt Nite by presenting a skit spoken entirely in French. For their name they have chosen Les Etoiles and their song Lili Marlene. twenty-nine STUDENT COUNCIL Seated: Phyllis Kistlcr, Joyce Schmidt, John Henninge, Jane Ann Kubach, Rolf Fobell.

Other members included, Phyllis Kistler, Edwin Homburg, and Sophie Kostelic as Senior representatives; Merritt Nielsen and Peter Gress from the Junior class; Gene Hubbard represented the Sophomores; and from the Freshmen class there were Lorry Lazarony, and Rolf Fobell. The Student Council has added many new duties to its list this year. The main one was the adoption of a plan to have monitors in the halls at all times to check passes. The Scholarship Club this year had fourteen members. They elected Stella Lezak, President; Henry Bobitch, Vice-President; June Melcher, Secre- tary; Carol Hohlfelder, Assistant Secretary; and Albert Znidarsic, Treasurer. The club attended the annual Scholarship Banquet at Wickliffe. June Melcher was elected a member of the executive committee. We ordered letters this year for each member. On May 29 the entire club and Mr. Sahli, our adviser, traveled to Paines- ville. We visited the county jail, heard two divorce cases in court, and went through the Painesville Telegraph Building. We enjoyed our usual privilege of leaving study hall at any time. thirty-one CHORUS Row 1: Patricio Abplonalp, Corrine Harris, Alma Spcar, Barbara Thompson, Lois Prince, Bernice Paine.

There were more girls than boys because of the present situation. Maxine Brockway and Sidney Harper were secretaries for the club, Jack Stanton and Margaret Brott were the librarians, and Edmund Hearn and Pat Abplanalp were the stage managers. We gave a Christmas assembly showing three soldiers in camp on a far-a-way island reading their mail and dreaming of home, while the chorus sang White Christmas. We also participated in Stunt Nite with a push- button radio effect . Both performances were enjoyed by the audiences. This year the chorus was forced to give up their instructor to Uncle Sam so our activities were limited. We were sorry to see him go and wish him all the luck in the world. This year the band blossomed out in new hats, the forerunners of our uniforms. We really looked slick when we played for one of the football games last fall. We lost our instructor, Mr. Elton Mosher, in January to the Merchant Marines, thereby ending our music activities for the year. About twenty-rfive students, both grade school and high school students, were active members of our band. Officers were: Virginia Rosencrans, Lib- rarians; Judson Ellertson, Secretary; Richard Deming and Lorry Lazarony, stage managers. thirty-three Edwin Homburg, Carol Hohlfcldcr, Dick Croig, Henry Bobitch, Mr. Sahli, Audrey Jerome, Jone Ann Kubach, Juddy Ellertson. Debating Club The Debate Club, formed at student request and with Mr. Sahli as adviser, has just finished its first trip out. After several meetings in which we studied proper debate precedure, we plunged into the actual debating, with Peacetime Military Conscription as our topic. Our teams were com- posed of the girls versus the boys, and in the debate which we presented to the student body the girls were the affirmative, and the boys the negative. This sums up the year's activities, but we hope that by organizing ear- lier next year we can occupy a better position in school activities. thirty-four thirty-five 'fa’ieivell 'fliends We remember so clearly, When we first entered here, With our thoughts in o turmoil. With our hearts full of fear. But we soon grew accustomed, To the regular routine. We no longer were timid, And our minds were more keen. Then we carried on bravely, What we did was our best. We did all in our power, And let God do the rest. In the first year we grumbled, To much work to be done . And then, Who wants to study, Who can work and hove fun? But it wasn't long after— In grade ten the next year— All our grumbles had vanished, We enjoyed ourselves here! Grade eleven seemed hardest. But it went like the rest. Then we passed to the twelfth grade, And the twelfth grade was best! Now we hate to be leaving, But our days here are thru; In a way we are happy, And then too we are blue. We are happy to leave here, And begin a new life. Though it be still more learning. Or just plain man and wife. Though we'll miss all the dear things, Every room, every friend, Still with us go the memories, That will live to the end!

Betty Gottbehuet thirty-seven lite git OLV The Senior Class presented the play, VICTORY HOME, on the evenings of April 27 and 28. VICTORY HOME tells the story of the Hargroves, a typical American family. Charles Hargrove, a businessman of good standing, says that he is being pushed to the wall. He trys to explain to his youngest daughter Pauline, who is constantly collecting scrap to take a rap at the Hun and the Jap that small business is on its way out. Uncle George who enjoys his bad health wants to know why on earth Edith has to spend so much time at the Canteen. Uncle is air warden and when he fails to attend the meetings he is promptly told off by Mrs. Kelso, a meddling neighbor. My people came over on the Mayflower is the constant boast of Edith Hargrove. Charles says she's the best wife he ever had but that she's a little giddy. Mother is about to start practicing her first aid on Uncle when Benford enters and says that he hasn't registered for the draft. To make matters worse Gale announces her engagement to Tony Cravetti, a soldier of Italian parentage in the U. S. Army. Mrs. Hargrove is just telling Tony how happily married Bob and Lola, her oldest daughter, are when Bob storms in and threatens to take a poke at Uncle. Lola has refused to give her consent to let Bob enlist in the Signal Corps. When the family stands up for Lola and Tony denounces Carl Fredericks, Benford's friend, as a Nazi, things really start happening. These scenes and the many to follow made the evening a very enjoyable one for all. Mrs. Trescott directed the seniors in their parts and we owe her a vote of thanks for making the play a success.

Trescott thirty-eight Ut Happen.ec) to the Class ojj In order to carry on the tradition of being the class that's different, we'll begin by looking at things upside down. To illustrate our last remark let us look at Jack Stanton. Before applauding seniors and dismayed freshmen, he is performing the great acrobatic feat of standing on his head. It gives you a different slant on life, doesn't it Jack. Mac- Beth tried it too, but as Don said, Your feet are too big, Bill. Don VanDyke doesn't care to look at things upside down. He'd rather see the world through that lock of hair which is always hanging down in his eyes. But one day the seniors decided to clear things up for Don, so with a pair of scissors taken from the nearest locker (we put them back, honest) in one hand and the lock of hair in the other, Rosie Gress was ready to do her duty for the senior class. The boys struggled with his hands and feet, the crowd chanted, cut it, Rosie, cut it: (isn't the suspense killing?). Dared we leave our fair haired boy in a predicament like that? We not only dared, we did. Did Don lose his golden tresses? Did a teacher come along just in the nick of time, as usual? Tune in tomorrow and find out. Hair-do highlights of the week. Something new has been added to Vernice Green, or should we say something has been subtracted, namely her very dark, very long hair. She must have been caught napping because now she's wearing a short page-boy. On you it looks good, Vernice. And whatta you know, Bill MacBeth, who was chosen the boy with the prettiest hair, arrived this morning with a butch. He says he fell asleep in the barber chair. Who is this coming down the hall with Glenn Stickel? Is it the Freshman of last week, the Junior of the week before or the Senior of this week? The Sophomores get a crack at him next week, and make it a good one girls. While we're on the romantic angles, and believe us there are plenty of angles to it, we turn our spotlight on the last two seats of the middle aisle in the senior homeroom. Here we find Sophie and Lynn. They're probably talking about all the fish they caught last Saturday night at a—oh someplace where the buttermilk falls or something like that. We forgot to mention that only half the Seniors are awake today, as usual. Play practice last night, you know. One of the seniors gladly supplied us with all the gruesome details. It seems it was something like this and we quote: Everyone was late. You see it was raining cats and dogs, but Margaret couldn't find a cocker spaniel so. Nothing else, just so, besides her sister already has a black one. No you're not crazy, it doesn't make sense to us either. Well anyway, to make a long story longer, (at least two pages long because the editor said so) practice finally started. As most things do, everything started out fine but within five minutes the fun began. You knew it would, didn't you? But let us first set the scene. There're a few seniors on the stage, some in the sewing room, still some more in the history room, and the rest, well we don't know where they are either, but we'll probably be hearing from them soon.

Geneva, Ohio IT HAPPENED TO THE CLASS OF 45 Continued from page 40) Ever hear of o certain record by a certain musician (I think) called Cocktails for Two? Like this record, everything starts out calm and serene and suddenly, Hey, will ya quit bangin' that door? We're tryin' to rehearse, ya know! Mrs. Kelso! Mrs. Kelso! (Frantically) Yer on, we're waitin' on ya! Then from a distance we heard, thump, thump, thump! We all thought for a mo- ment that the country aroma next door had gotten loose, but it wasn't hoofbeats at all; it was only Stanton padding around in his stocking feet again. About this time someone has been locked in a closet somewhere with the rest of the skeletons and someone else has been squirted with water. With this the chase is on, but the bare-foot boy with stockings on is holding the lead. We have a slight pause for intermission. As the saying goes, 'Take ten and we'll go on again.' Now the stiff grand piano shudders under the strain of having its rusty strings twanged 'eight-to-the-bar' with Maestro Miller as the tickler. Then we all leaned back and listened to Mrs. Trescott and Lloyd Miller render a duet. Our favorite is, 'Put Your Arms Around Me, Honey.' By this time the ten minutes was up and everyone was on stage, well almost every- one. In the 'other' room, Tony is putting up a fruitless battle with Gale trying to get her to practice a love scene (page 33) with him, but they end up in exchanging sarcasms instead. The building couldn't have taken much more in one night so with instructions to go home and get a good night's sleep, we left. Unquote. Our informer looked as though he hadn't taken the good advice to sleep but he'll be at practice tonight. The Show Must Go On! We could all tell by the look on John's face that he was looking forward to seventh period and his usual games of cat with Louise. Betty just handed us a bulletin. It reads quote: In nineteen hundred and forty-five When the world was in a mess, Some twenty-seven citizens Marched out of M. H. S. Finally, the end of two pages. You aren't any happier about the whole thing than we are! P. S. Don VonDyke's hair is still hanging down in his eyes. Yes, you guessed it—a teacher came along, but we'll get him yet. Some day we'll catch him with his pants down, like the night he had the Pepsi-Cola at play practice. fifty-one 8 Cecl etejuist JEWELER Phone 1085 4646 Main Avenue Ashtabula, Ohio CONGRATULATIONS To The Graduating Class JEAN FROCKS.
