Students of McKinley Vocational High School Buffalo. News York 1959 ur O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth President of the United States, was born on February 12, 1809. He has since become a symbol to all the free vvorld of what America stands for. It would not be fitting to pass without notice the hundred- fiftieth anniversary of the birth of such an American. We at McKinley are not unfamiliar with the sense of duty which leads a President to sacrifice everything for his country. On September 6, 1901, within a block of this school, the President whose name we bear gave evidence that the Lincoln tradition of devotion continues. o 1-1-gi-Li oooooooDEDICATIONooooooo IT is with considerable humiliTy ThaT we memorialize in This book a man whose words indicaTe one of The nobIesT concepTs of This word even expressed. IT is Tor us, The living, raTher To be dedicaTed here To The unfinished vvork which They who ToughT here have Thus Tar so nobly advanced.

GeTTysburg Address Abraham Lincoln November I9, I863 3 O O O O O O O O O O O O O O Thomas T. Dobbins On December 6, l958, death came suddenly to one of McKinley's best lov- ed teachers, Thomas P. Dobbins. Mr. Dob- bins was a native of Lancaster, New York and originally trained to become a patternmaker. After his service in World War l, he entered the teaching profession as a teacher of industrial arts which he taught for a number of years at School No. 51. Fifteen years ago he came to McKinley as a teacher of carp- entry. Throughout he maintained his as- sociation with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Local No. 9. Mr. Dobbins' death was sad news to all his associates as well as to his present and past students at McKinley. He main- tained a lively interest in all school act- ivities but was especially interested in the school paper The Artisan , for which he acted in the capacity of adviser. Mr. Dobbins' cheerful attitude, his kindness, and unfailing consideration for otherswill long be remembered at McKinley. OUR x : A n L : M : A g M l A : T l E , R ' OOOOOMCKINLEYAT PLAY 00000 LINCOLN, ADVI SER OF YOU TH 2 f X O O You are approaching another milestone of your career, the com- pletion of your high school studies. lt is our hope that you will attain this mark ot progress with great satisfaction, not merely for success- fully meeting requirements, but for your growth in knowledge and skill, in understanding, in character, in purpose. MESSAGE TO THE GRADUATES l Principal Whether your immediate choice will be for employment in your trade cratt, or in further schooling at institute or college, or in military service to your country, we wish the best for you in all endeavors. Once in a while look back on the pages of this book to revive in you the spirit of your McKinley days. Remember always Success is our business. 8 l Fercl E. Kamprath o o J C. Deluhery Assistant Principal O O O As we write this note to the grad- uates of 1959 we find that McKinley is on the verge of securing a new building. In this worthwhile effort we have help from many of our former students. This much stands outp the students who had good school records are the graduates who become the most successful in life. There may be exceptions, but this seems to be true in most cases. We hope that McKinley students will do their best to have some share in the building of a new McKinley so that as years roll by they can point to the new building and say that they had a share in the making of MESSAGE TO THE GRADUATES the new school. Each time a school advances the value of each diploma improves. Each thing that a student or teacher does affects every other student and teacher. Let us make every effort to be- come all that we are capable of be- ing. Let us keep our feet on the ground and our eyes on Heaven. Let us proceed with humility and kindness towards all, and we shall probably have a much happier and more useful life than if we lived on a principle of selfishness. In Emerson's splendid words, Let us hitch our wagon to a star.

It would be difficult to find any area of school affairs in which Juniors were not conspicuous. Juniors were team members in all sports. In Football there were Fletcher Brown, John Cholnik, Louis Callari and Frank Sperduto. ln Cross Country Joe Sciolino and Norman Kipler were parti- cipants. On the Basketball Team were found Richard Delmont and John Jurc- zak. Ronald Ziccardi and Thomas Grab- owski were on the Track Team. John Sto- Ifo and Carols Lowell were active in Base- ball. John Egan was on the Tennis Team. BL't Juniors did not restrict their in- terest to athletics. Frank Ferola was Vice- President of the Student Council. Robert Hauptman was President of the Guid- ance club. Bill Strobel was President of the Chess Club. Salvatore Rinaldo was on the All-High Band and composed a sp- ecial selection for the Band Assembly. Bill Wagner and Edward Barton were act- ive on the Bowling Club. James Mecca was Secretary of the Safety Committee. Among the Juniors on the Honor Roll were Michael Piekarski, James Sarafin, Julius Zebehazy, John Cholnik and David Regalla. It is too large a task to name all the Juniors who have helped make this re- cord or to list their individual contribu- tions. Many more deserve mention. Jun- iors as a group supported such affairs as the skating parties, the Spring Var- iety Show and all athletic events. As a grouo they are looking forward to next year whew their abilities, talents and in- terests will have a larger arena in which to display themselves. 0 0 0 QSOPHOMORES REPORTINGO 0 0 0 SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS Left to right: Ronald Schuler - Recording Secretary Jerry Norman - President, Nelson Colley - Vice Pres- ident, Arthur Lorbeer - Secretary Last September almost any Sophomore would have admitted his surprise at how quickly the Freshman year had passed and how at home he felt in almost any business of the McKinley family. As a result, the Class of T961 was not long in making its presence felt in school af- fairs. In athletics Peter Mruk, Bobby War- ren and Jerry Norman were active in Football. On the Cross Country Team were Paul Young, Lynn Loeb and Leroy Watts. ln Basketball, the Sophomores were represented by Thomas Reid, Jos- eph Gnozzo, David Tout, and Charles Banks. Robert Lussier, Jim Sortisio and Donald Mydzian were active in Baseball. In Track Paul Young, Cleodious Johnson and Larry Cleveland were participants. ln all other activities Sophomores were also to be found. Thomas Brewster was Treasurer of the Guidance Club. Lar- ry Cleveland, John Ramirez, and John Potelo were on the All-High Band. Ron D'Amaro was active in the Band. Sophomores also were conspicuous on the Honor Roll. Among them were Ronald D'Amaro, Richard Curto, Anthony Ciampa, Thomas Liungstrom, Donald My- dzian, Arthur Lorbeer, John Derylak, Ron- ald Schuler, Frederick Krempa and Al- bert Buda. This has been a year of growth for the Sophomores. Individuals mentioned were iust a few of those who made note- worthy efforts to make all McKinley act- ivities successful and rewarding. Many others made possible the fine record of this class. , GROUPS 201, 261, 271 FRONT ROW: Walter Czop, Vincent Lombardo, George A.

That, no doubt, would have been the opinion expressed by most Freshmen at the be- ginning of their high school careers last September. McKinley, with its four build- ings and the four units of its main build- ing, can be something of a maze to a newcomer. Freshmen soon began to take part in the school's activities. Athletics were of special interest. ln Basketball there were Albert Howard, Robert Defibaugh and Jerry Kruse. In Cross Country Richard Biber and Michael Kirkpatrick. In Football Pat McDermott. Salvatore Perez and Hen- derson Hutchinson. Baseball appealed to Dan McPhee and Stanley Woicik. John Hallnan and Arlingston Albert were ac- tive on the Track Team. Henderson Hutchins was also active on the Student Council. Thomas Bernstein was active as a Li- brary Assistant. John Eichorn, Donald Bacon, and James Barr were active on the Safety Committee. James Barr was on the Staffs of the Artisan and The President. Frank Tomaselli was a busy member of the Camera Club. Gerald Mai- ola and James Tornabene participated in the Band. Among the Freshmen on the Honor Roll were Joeph Catonia, John Buda, Michael Sharrer, Stanley Woicik, Ronald Barilko and James Barr. LINCOLN, THE STUDENT -5 L 'E 5: Xwff I 3 T , T I f 4 :4 F F! Q A., fi 7fTTS DNf BRICKLAYING This year The Bricklaying classes, under The supervision of Mr. Grun- don, worked on some projecTs of unusual inTeresT. The Seniors ex- pended Their efforTs on various pan- els of cinder and glass block. ln add- iTion, many cons'TrucTed ouTdoor bar- becues. A varieTy of fireplaces wiTh heaTalaTors were also erecTed. This year's specialTy, however, was an e- laboraTe paTio wiTh a barbecue seT- Ting. The Juniors engaged in building panels To give Them experience in working wiTh color schemes and brick paTTerns. One of The panels They builT was a baskeT weave in- Terior wiTh an ouTside Trim of head- ers giving a very good example of bond and paTTern. The Junior class sTarTed To lay bricks on a line, a very necessary experience. The Sophomores learned The fundamenTal skills of The Trade. They learned how To spread morTar and acquired a knowledge of The differ- enT Types of bond which are used in consTrucTion. They were also given experience constructing small- er iobs such as 8 inch, T2 inch and T inch corners and piers. In addition they have learned the use of the plumb rule. All the bricklaying students learn- ed the importance of every motion in a trade which uses a wide variety of materials in a great possible num- ber of construction situations requir- ing a detailed knowledge of arch- itectural blueprints. CARPENTRY SHOP This year Mr. Rousselle's Senior carpentry class constructed a one third pitch, hip and valley roof with with a three and one half inch over- hang. They received instruction in how to lay out and cut the different kinds of rafters needed. In the shop they also made knotty cedar closets and a kitchen counter set with clo- sets. Figuring the layout and con- struction of housed and mitred stairs was another accomplishment. Forms for concrete were erected outdoors so the bricklayers could use them in the pouring of concrete footings. Some of the boys erected forms of domes for use by the plasters. In the Junior class the students set doors in partially studded door- ways. They also constructed various items for use in the other shops. Mr. Pfuelb's Sophomores divid- edthemselves into work groups of four. A full scale Western frame house was then erected and sub- sequently disassembled for use by a subsequent class. After drawing up plans for his own ranch style home, each individual built a model based on them. Mr. Pfuelb's Freshmen busied themselves learning the fundament- alsand necessary precautions against safety hazards in the trade. The Freshman course is short being only one of the six-week courses in their rotation plan. HORTICULTU RE The Horticulture Course at Mc- Kinley is the only one of its kind of- fered to young men in Western New York. lt is divided into two main branches, greenhouse main- tenance and landscaping. Mr. Mar- tino is in charge of the former divi- sion and Mr. Losel of the latter. The greenhouse division raises all the plants to be used in the gar- dens, while the landscape division has the responsibility of maintain- ing those gardens. ln addition, the landscapers care for the lawn areas and trees. ln his first year, the Horticulture Freshman acquires a general idea of the trade by devoting most of his time to the identification of an- nuals, perennials, shrubs, trees and many other elementary phases of the trade. Sophomores and Juniors are divided into two groups, one half specializing in greenhouse, the other half in landscaping. These div- isions are rotated every ten weeks. This experience determines the branch of the trade for which the student is best suited. At the be- ginning of the Senior year the stu- dent has a choice of the division in which he wants to specialize. Greenhouse students perform such tasks as sowing seeds, taking cuttings, caring for bulbs, protecting plants from disease and seeing that they are fed at proper intervals. Landscape students prune shrubsand trees, construct and maintain lawns, do surveying and landscape design- ing. There are many special projects directed towards the improvement of the school grounds. All students spend a period of two weeks in summer school during which they tend the greenhouses and gardens. Many students obtain outside relat- ed work after school or during the remainder of the summer. MACHINE SHOP The Machine Shop Department has one of the largest enrollments in the school. The students aim to become proficient on a variety of machines such as lathes, shapers, milling machines, drill presses, grinders and planers. The shop al- so provides them with the opport- unity to do benchwork and learn the use of measuring and hand tools. Freshman classes are under the supervision of Mr. Raymond, Mr. Fissler and Mr. Guderian. Among iobs turned out by these students were parallel clamps, C clamps, tap wrenches, scribers, combination wrenches, tool bit grinding gages, vises and gear studs. They also worked on tap wrenches, gear pul- leys, V -pulleys, center punches and V -block vises. They also were given experience in heat treating. Mr. Napier's Juniors made tap wrenches, C -clamps, plug gages, T -bolts, wood-turning centers, pump wrenches and drill gages. Their training included experience with the new DO-ALL machine. The Senior supervised by Mr. Speck made V-Block vises, Thread pieces, spur gear, locking screws, lathe centers and ground drills. In addition they accomplished such iobs as magnetic parallels, molding cutters and the resurfacing of bench plates. They also painted or repaint- ed several of the machines and re- paried some furnace boiler pads. PATTERNMAKING Patternmaking as a trade makes a high demand for skill on the part of its workers. Whereas, other trades may fluctuate in importance with changed production methods, Patternmaking seems not to vary in the importance assigned it. If any- thing, modern mass production has seemed to make the Patternmaker more essential. At McKinley, the course is aimed at making the individual completely proficient. The student learns to make small machine parts as well as large structural castings with equal precision. Although he learns the use of many modern machines, in- struction in the use of necessary handtools is not ignored. The Pat- ternmaker also receives the neces- sary background in mathematics and mechnical drawing, helping to provide him with a well rounded experience. The Pattermaking instructor is Mr. Elmer Clabeau, a man with consid- erable work history in industry. The record of Mr, Clabeau's previous students indicates the soundness of their school training. This results seems inevitable toone watching the steady progress of Freshmen learn- ing the fundamental use of sharp tools to the Seniors working skillful- ly on their larger iobs such as the grinder casing, bearing housing and gear block. PLASTERING Plastering is a very old trade and has been taught at McKinley since the school was instituted. Classes this year were under the supervi- sion of Mr. Franklin A. Smith. The course aims to provide the boys with a knowledge of all aspects of 4 the trade that they would need to know in a job situation. Among the specific things learned are: three coat work, patching, designing, making templates and running molds. All boys are given a chance to develop skill in trade operations. In one large room of the shop, six small practice rooms were built by the carpenters. The classes are divided into six crews and each crew as- signed to a room. The boys plan ex- actly what will go in each room and then set about constructing it with the advice of the teacher. Five of the rooms have a rectangular ceiling with a cornice between the ceiling and the room. The sixth has a round ceiling with a light trough along the wall. From building these rooms the boys learn teamwork and some of the difficulties that a craftsman runs into on the job. The boys also are given experi- ence in various kinds of moldssuch as lamps, flower pots and lawn pieces. There is experience also in planning, designing and construct- ing all kinds of ornamental work. PLUMBING This trade, as the name indicates, originated many centuries ago with the worker of lead. It has since de- veloped into a trade, the demand for whose services is constantly' ex- panding in this Space Age with its demand for sanitation and durabil- ity. ln the course of the year, Sopho- more students under the supervi- sion of Mr. Metz have completed numerous pipe assemblies and off- sets to familiarize themselves with various pipe sizes and fittings and their necessary mathematical com- putations. They also performed suc- cessfully on basin lead work and cast iron assemblies. The Juniors and Seniors were supervised by Mr. Ben D'Arcangelo. The Juniors concentrated on the challenging techniques of wiping various ioints. They also assembled a complete bathroom profiting from the lay-out and mechanical work in- volved. The Seniors installed a com- plete commercial lavatory involving such more advanced work as the plumbing fixture layout and the in- stallation of a circulatory line, air chambers and floor drains. They al- so performed advanced lead work, assembled copper pipe in numerous offsets and learned the fundamen- tals of welding. The whole course offers opportunities to boys who bring to it interest and effort. SHEET METAL In recent years the uses of sheet metal in homes and industries have multiplied. The results has been a heavy demand for sheet metal workers to fill the positions created by the increased use of this con- struction material. The course at Mc- Kinley is aimed at helping fill this demand by training students famil- iar with work related to ventilating, air-conditioning, gravity and forced air heating, and direct collecting systems. The sheet metal worker today musthave abasiclcnowledgeof weld- ing, brazing, riveting and triangula tion. The use of plastics is a new de- velopment in sheet metal work. The plastic material is purchased in sheets as is the metal and the pro- cedures used in production are id- entical with those used in sheet metal. Among the useful obiects made in the Sheet Metal Shop this year were filmstrip cabinets for the Vis- ual Aids Department, a twenty foot awning, iron railings and a projec- tion stand for the school. SCIENCE It is impossible to pursue success- fully any Trade taught at McKinley without a knowledge of basic scien- tific principles. The most practical operations in a trade have usually a sound abstract Theory behind them. Such knowledge makes not only for a more efficient worker but for a safer one as well. But just as most Americans elsewhere, McKinley sci- ence Teachers and students are a- ware of The larger implication of scientific Training in our modern world. For The Third year a physics course has been offered to a group of senior students. ln all science courses physics texts are used to pro- vide a theoretical background for The applied science related to The various Trades. Such knowledge should prove useful not only to Those boys entering Trades but also to Those going into military service. MATHEMATICS Mathematics more Than The other related subiects has an immediate use in a Trade. Most courses require several years of This subject with its special relation tothe particular Trade learned. Fundamentals are not neglected, but mathematics is dem- onstrated to have a particular bear- ing on The work being done in The shops. Cost estimates, material com- putation, calculations necessary be- fore engaging in work are all taught in these courses. All students ap- preciate how necessary a sound mathematical grounding is to what- ever trades they have chosen as their specialities. DRAWING Before a tradesman makes some- thing or follows a procedure, he must visualize what he is trying to do. The easiest way to do this is to have a plan. Most plans involve drawings. The skilled craftsman must be able both to make and to understand drawings. The drawing is an aid not merely in the accomp- lishment of the protect but in nec- essary calculations of size, materials and costs. Moreover, a drawing or sketch will help in explaining iobs to others and in enabling Them to see the finished product. Not sur- prisingly all McKinley graduates have had considerable experience in the making and reading of draw- ings. ENGLISH One studies English that he may be able to express his own ideas clearly and correctly and to under- stand the ideas others communicate to us. A knowledge of our common language is a tool demanded of a worker in any industry, in any trade. Such knowledge is essential for the ordinary purposes of everyday liv- ing, traffic signs are a sufficient ex- ample of this. A lack of clarity and correctness in language is the cause of endless difficulties both in the shop and at home. But the use of one's national tongue is a pleasure as well. Books, newspapers, movies, radio and television would be mean- ingless otherwise. The greater one's verbal ability the more one can ob- tain from them. And who would want to be deprived of those com- mon experiences with friends that are so dependent on our ability to share ideas with them. The study of English by a high school boy leads to both profit and pleasure. CITIZENSHIP Freshmen entering McKinley study a course entitled Economic World which combines both geo- graphy and economics, in either the Sophomore or Junior year students study World History, Senior re- ceivea year's instruction in American History. Future workers and citizens of America will need to know the major crises, conflicts and problems which have confronted the past and will confront the current worlds. These courses are designed to pro- vide such knowledge. At the end of this instruction the McKinley graduate is well aware of his rights and his responsibilities and has ac- quired some of the background nec- essary to their wise and intelligent use. J B GUIDANCE The function of the Guidance De- partment is to coordinate all pupil personnel services such as those of the nurse, doctor, psychologist, at- tendance officer and visiting teach- er, Mr. Russell Mancuso, the Coun- selor, also harmonizes his own ac- tivities with those of the school fac- ulty to stimulate the pupil to make the most of his potentialities. The Counselor's procedures - keeping records, testing, counseling, inter- viewing, accumulating and dissem- inating information - are tools with which to help pupils to better self- understanding and self-direction. Pre-registration programs help the pupil make an intelligent high school choice. Before graduation the pupil is also assisted in making post high school plans. The Guidance Office, in addition, offers assistance in placement.

Representatives are elect- ed by their fellow students from the in- dividual shop groups. Delegates are chosen by the various activities. All class- es are represented by their top officers. Meetings of the Council are conducted according to accepted parliamentary pro- cedures. Life experience in the democ- ratic process is thus provided. The Council sponsored two skating parties this year, the most successful ones we ever held. We also conducted sev- eral assemblies. The Junior Red Cross Committee was especially active. Our representation on the Inter-High Council was faithfully maintained. Probably the most spectacular activ- ity sponsored by the Student Council was the Spring Festival Variety Show. Charles Carfley acted as producer and Arthur Gawlak as M.C. There was a larger number of acts each seemingly better than the others. The entire stu- dent body agreed that this was the best show in years. The cast and the sponsor- ing teachers deserved great credit for their efforts. The Student Council Officers are.

Its high level of ser- vice to the school can only be credited to the members who take an active part in teamwork to better the school. Membership in the club is limited to a minority of the student body, young men of a demonstrated sense of respon- sibility approved by the following club officers: President, Joseph Kwasniewski, Vice-President, Richard Croad, Secretary, Leonard Mierczewski, Treasurer, Thomas Kipler, and Sergeant-at-arms, John Woj- cik. The Club's most important service is the supervision of the school cafeteria. Members performing this service are de- pendent upon the cooperation of their fellow students which is usually forth- coming. Other services provided are the management of the auditorium, the pro- vision of occasional help in the office, and escort assistance to the school's visit- ors. The student's efforts are not only helpful to the school but provide him with an opportunity to assume leader- ship, responsibility and to work with people. 0 0 0 O O SAFETY COMMITTEE Q Q 0 0 0 FRONT ROW: James Mecca, Roger Higgins, Russell Cardinale SECOND ROW: George Urbino, Michael Cady, Edward Gallivan, Thomas Bernstein, Thomas Lalle, Edward Herbst, Raymond Latchforrl, Ronald Ziccardi, Edward Higgins, John Derylak, Joseph Testa THIRD ROW: Donald Bacon, Peter Kifner, Salvatore Rinaldo, Donald Edward, Charles Carfley, Raymond Boreanaz, Michael Ebert FOURTH ROW: John Naffky, Robert Rokosky, John Cholnik, Robert Foley, Jerry Norman, Lloyd Logan, Francis McCarthy, Richard Brydalski, Norman Neely, Vincent LoTempio, Frank Bavaro The Safety Committee at McKinley has had a very busy year necessitating after school and week-end sessions. The year began with election of officers and necessary committee meetings. We sent two members, John Naffy and Secretary Jim Mecca, to the Fourth Annual Traffic Safety Conference at Buffalo State Teach- ers College. Vincent LoTempio, a mem- ber, attended as President of the Student Council. Problems of teen-age and adult drivers were discussed. A report was made by attending members to the en- tire Safety Committee. Later in the year the Committee pre- sented its safety assembly in which we received our lOth Annual Safety Award. The award was presented to Roger Hig- gins by Dr. Irvin Himmele, our guest speaker. Mr. Kamprath then received the award from Roger on behalf of the school. Dr. Himmele gave a short talk on accidents and their prevention. The as- sembly was concluded with a report on the Traffic Safety Conference by Mr. Na- pier, our advisor. We have had our regular meetings dealing with our school safety problems and the search for ways to reduce our accident rate. Proof of our diligence is the fact that this year's rate is lower than last year's. The Committee also acquired safety posters for all the shops. Shop re- presentatives will insure their rotation during the year. Each shop was provided with six posters. During the year the Committee main- tained its traditional safety engineers in the shops. Thanks are due to the student body for its cooperation in safety meas- ures and especially to our advisers, Mr. Napier and Mr. D'Arcangelo.

Some of the Freshmen and Sophomores who be- gan their participation this year have made exceptional progress and have al- ready taken their places in the Band. Moreover, boys who were new last year have grown in experience and ability and now function as leaders in the Band's endeavors. Especially valuable are three of last year's Freshmen: Edwin Reszel, John Vitello and Larry Cleveland who, along with Salvatore Rinaldo, a Junior have won themselves key positions in the Buffalo All High Band. This is quite exceptional in view of the fact that some of the high schools in the city are not even represented in that organization. We have a special advanced Wood- wind Choir this year which has function- ed as part of, as well as in place of, the Dance Band for special assemblies and other events. This group will again re- present McKinley in this year's Parade of Bands sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. Later in May they will be performing music of a more serious na- ture forthe Annual Music Festival of the Buffalo Board of Education.

It began with seven members. There are now sixteen regularly active members. The current of- ficers are: Robert Hauptman, President, David Forster, Vice-President, Carlos Lo- well, Secretary, Robert Cunningham, Treasurer, Charles Tirone, Sergeant-at- Arms -the last, a new position this year. This year the Club made some changes in its ways of helping the students. ln- stead of specializing in the presentation of several Guidance Assemblies during the year, the group decided to divide it- self into several committees:Guidance of- fice, Bulletin Board, Films and Publicity. This provided more specialized ways of assisting students with their Guidance Problems. On November l9th, the Club put on one assembly at which Police Commis- sioner Frank N. Felicetta spoke on the working of the Court system. The assem- bly also featured a film entitled Fitness for Leadership. Future plans include a Career Night, another assembly and possibly some pro- grams. The Club hopes to expand in the future its services for providing students with supplementary Guidance help.

Those who remember last spring's staging of one scene from a contemporary play in a modern setting know how our Thespians rise to the occasion. As its Christmas contribution, the Club did anoriginal presentation complete with settings and costumes which showed the various customs America has adopted from other countries for its own Christ- mas celebration. The presentation was accompanied by appropriate readings. Future plans call for the production next fall of a full length play Brother Orchid. Preliminary casting indicates our young actors will take full advantage of some choice roles. The Club is geared to early, enthusia- stic work on such necessary equipment as costumes and scenery. lt is sure that its public, the McKinley student body, will respond to its efforts. O O O 0 LIBRARY ASSISTANTS 0 0 0 Q Left to Right: William Strobel, Thomas Bernstein, Lawrence Neri, Conrad Delay, Ralph Siller, Daniel Kosiuch, Marvin Mironuk, Miss Didcms The library assistants at McKinley perform many valuable tasks which help to make the library more efficient. Aloy- sius Herko, Conrad DeJoy and Thomas Bernstein arrive at 8:00 am to help in the morning before classes. They also serve on Wednesdays between 2:00 and 3:00 pm during Religious Instruction per- iod. All assistants usually come to the library when they can be excused from class. Lawrence Neri made a speciality of alphabetizing and filing cards in the Card Catalog. William Strobel and Daniel Kosciuch help place books in readiness for circulation. Ralph Siller works at the desk charging books and handling lib- rary passes. Marion Mironiuk and Grant Long arrange books on the shelves. Since our library is open only three days a week the work these boys do is most important in keeping the library attractive and making its services avail- able at all times. All the boys become familiar with the processes necessary be- for a book can be placed in circulation and all the other procedures necessary to good library management, The order and harmony prevailing in our library are good evidence of their teamwork and cooperation.

This includes screens, movie projectors, film- strip proiectors, opaque and vice-graph proiectors and a tape recorder. This year's group has continued the fine record of several years of service to the school in auditorium and in class rooms. These boys have shown high regard for the handling and care of valuable equipment and have been equally responsible in their own conduct when on assignments. When the third floor of B Building was closed off, necessary classroom rear- rangements caused the Proiection Club to lose its proiection room. This has some- what restricted the use of proiectors and inhibited the activity of the Club. How- ever, the staff is working on this problem and hopes to have a solution by next year. Although the Club has been oper- ating only a few years, the members are acquiring more and more experience and know-how. Service has improved steadily from year to year. In view of past performance, the group looks for- ward to a continued improvement in the coming year.

The name of this paper is The Artisan and it is published by the student members of the Artisan staff. However, our school paper would never exist without the expert guidance and advice of Mr. Dombrowski and the late Mr. Dobbins. As a result of the time and effort they have expended, the Art- isan has developed into one of the school's finest services. The purpose of the Artisan staff is to produce a school paper which will be both interesting and informative for the entire student body. Members of the Art- isan staff include: Anthony Abramo, Ed- itor-in-chief, reporters: James Barr, Rus- sell Cardinale, Anthony Cremeno, James Egan, James Fryrych, Joseph McGee, James Mikulec, John Molnar, Ronald Roz- kwitalski, James Sarafin, Ronald Sara- fin, Werner Schmidtfrerick, Harold Sch- roeder, Charles Tirone, and Julius Ze- behazy.

This was encouraging because of the loss, through graduation, of a number of members whose services had been very valuable. Initial enthusiasm, unfort- unately, was not sustained throughout the entire year. Those who remained, however, showed by their willingness to work that the traditional high level of in- terest in school publications would be maintained. The increase in the number and var- iety of school activities has made nec- essary an increased amount of work on the part of the staff. The never-ending stream of detail involved requires a high degree of participation by members. The business aspects of theyearbookwereen- ergetically supervised by Mr. Martino. The Camera Club worked diligently to provide the yearbook with essential pic- tures. Mr. Brassaw rendered assistance in planning many details connected with the formal pictures. Next year is the school's fiftieth an- niversary and the staff is looking forward to the preparation of a more elaborate issue. A larger number of enthusiastic members will be required for its success.

Air trans- portation to and from Cherry Point was provided by the Marines. An excellent program was provided including a full day at Camp Leieune where Explorers observed the latest in Marine equipment and an exhibition ot mock warfare. Each Explorer was housed and ted and given a red poplin Explorer jacket, T-Shirt, em- blems and miscellaneous equipment for a nominal sum.

The program lasted for ten weeks but had to be sus- pended because of the insufficient num- ber of participants. This year the Club bowled on Mon- days at 3:15 pm at Volkers Alleys. No trophies were awarded this season by agreement of the remaining active mem- bers. The two boys who held high aver- ages were Len Gulash and Ed Barton. High single this year - a 245 - was rolled by Ed Barton. The Club's officers were Bill Wagner, President and Ed Barton, Vice-President.
