J: QenseTt Cover design by Alice Gizewski '43 For God For Country For Notre Dame Published by the SENIOR CLASS of NOTRE DAME ACADEMY Cleveland, Ohio Colette McNamara, Editor Today, another book is being dedicated to you, Mary, Queen of Peace. It is only a small volume, a collection of every day happenings bound to- gether for your eternal honor. A story at once sublime yet human, it tells of four years spent under your gracious protection at Notre Dame. Since you have been our supreme guide and directress during these years, it is only fitting that our White Portfolio be wholly yours. We are not satisfied to dedicate this volume of TOWER MEMORlES simply to Our Lady. We have. chosen one of your most glorious titles and one which we think most appropriate in today's world, Queen of Peace . A great poet once called you llour tainted nature's solitary boast.ll Today when our world seems doubly tainted with bloody war and perhaps even worse evils, we remember that you are not only our pride but our one hope of final and lasting peace. We look to you in our hour of trial. If worldly peace be not in the all-wise plan of your Divine Son, we shall make a different prayer. We shall beg, then, for that far more im- portant peace of mind and soul which comes of close communion with the entire court of Heaven. May we confess something, dear Mother? The conflict through which we are struggling is not all bad. We have been taught greater respect for our country and our flag. Likewise in organizing this book we have been taught more of our school and its activities. Now both our school and our country will give us a deeper appreciation of our Queen. We know that your soul must have been as stainless as the cover with which we bind our portfolio. We have always prided ourselves that your blue was our blue also, but it took our flag to make us see the true richness of this color's beauty. In our flag the blue of your eyes is combined with the white of your mantle. The red stripes give us the color of your lips. The stars remind us of your crown of glory. We find the red of your devo- tion, the white of your spotless purity, the blue of your undying loyalty in the colors of our flag. Our OWn America was dedicated several years ago to your Immacu- late Conception. This makes us of Notre Dame, citizens of your realm in a triple sense: in a civic as well as in a scholastic and a religious way. Can you therefore disregard our requests? Our one great prayer today is for the peace of this country dedicated to your name. 0 Queen of Peace, in these days when the world needs you so desper- ately, come to bring us your peaceeat least peace of mind and soul. Bor- row the words of the Prince of Peace, your Eternal Son, and appearing above us, mantled with the flag of the nation dedicated to you, calm our hearts with those gentle words, Peace be unto you. 0 Queen of Peace, accept our White Portfolio with our sincerest love and gratitude. Your Daughters at Notre Dame Tower Memories, 1943 you will find tho it has been divided into three sections. On has been given to God, one to our country and one to Notre Dame. By this grouping w do not mean that any activity has had a singl objective. Our divisions are merely arbitrar and convenient. As students we have not made the honor 0 Notre Dame the final objective of our activi ties. As citizens of the land of the free' our allegiance has not been only to the Star and Stripes. But each event, although fire by a new patriotic zeal and carried out as loving tribute to our Alma Mater, has bee caught up and transfigured by that highes purpose of allethe greater honor and glor of God. He is the Commandernin-chief of th forces of good, and only by devoting our ever effort to His cause will our chances of free dom become realities. This then has been the purpose of our ever action. We have become better students an more loyal citizens, for our love and our alleg iance has been made Divine. That allegianc was the theme of our life, running as an un dercurrent through the past year-a year a ration books and A stamps. We have live in a world whose skies have been overcas with the clouds of a global war. We coul not and did not ignore the fact. We hav studied and worked, laughed and prayed i the dark shadows of night, and we shall con tinue to do so as long as necessary. But we are confident that day must daw on a new eraean era colored by the shinin brilliance of an all-forgiving Father who wi again send His white Dove of Peace to a re pentant world. In a world of disorder and uncertainty we turn to you God, our Light. We're going into the worldeit's ours to live in and work for, but we're young and untested; we need help and assistance. It is fitting then that at the beginning of our annual we turn our thoughts to God and things spiritual. He is our Guide and our Adviser; through Him alone can we succeed no matter what way of life we choose to follow. How many opportunities have we had to learn to bring Christ into our daily lives! How many instructors do we have to help us attain this union!! Our Bishops have shown us the road to follow in our quest for happiness . The facultyewe all have our favorite, but we acknowledge our indebtedness to everyone for her patience, her sacrifice, and her labors to introduce us to Jesus Christ in whom she has found Friend, Savior, and Lover. What wonderful times we have had in our Sodalityll Social affairs, charitable ventures and competitive drives-all the activities in which we proved we were more than daughters of Mary, we were her companions, too. Through the missions we helped all those unfortunates, so dear to her maternal heart. Perhaps the greatest sign-post on the Road to Heaven has been our retreat. We go back to God, receive Him in the innocence of First Com- municants and resolve never to lose that innocence, that nearness to Christ. What then shall we say at the beginning of our memory book? Only this- God, Thou art the Source and the Goal of our Faith! ,xm :37 , i'lllLLlllrllal $livW .th x. The Most Reverend Joseph Schrembs, S.T.D., LL.D. For many long, troubled years, Archbishop Schrembs has faith- fully ministered to the needs of his flock here in the Diocese of Cleveland. He has been recalled from death's door through the goodness of Christ, for he is in- dispensable to our community. Under his auspices the Catholic Universe Bulletin has become a thriving exponent of true Catho- lic philosophy. Under his in- spiring leadership Christian and non-Christicm have united. to drive immorality and sin from the home front. During the course of his stay in Cleveland, he has been friend and counsellor to many genero- tions. He has rendered spiritual guidance to those seeking it. His life has been one complete sacri- fice to Christ. It is our sincere hope, Arch- bishop Schrembs, that it is in the alI-wise plan of our Heavenly Father to keep you with us for some time yet. The Most Reverend Edward F. Hoban, S.T.D. ?Zwalzdiizae On January 21, 1943, Bishop Hobon become a new and true cog in Cleveland's wheel of Catholicism. Never an idle mo- ment has he known since his or- rival. Visiting schools, attend- ing and officiating at Church of- foirs, backing to the limit all patriotic drivesethese are but a few of his accomplishments dur- ing his short time here. The present has been filled with his achievements and the future is full of promise. We, here at Notre Dame, sin- cerely w e l c o m e you, Bishop Hobon, to our midst. We pledge our loyalty and support to you in whatever you may undertake. May the Lord in His Providence see fit to leave you with us for many years to come. H Sister Mary Agnes, S.N.D. Principal Those of us who have known Sister Mary Ralph have found in her model, comforter, and companion. The other students must for- give us Seniors if we claim her as our very own patron and pol. She has been so very much to all of useo friend never too busy to help, an adviser always sympathetic, an optimist who has never failed to laugh us through petty troubles and dark days. Each class of students has found in Sister Mary Ralph some very special trait to endear her to themeshe shares the Freshmon's sim- plicity, the Sophomore's blitheness, the Jun- ior's eagerness, the Senior's dignity. We will soon forget the pink tardy slips and the blue or white absence slips she passed out to us; we may even forget her illustrated auditorium talks and rhetorical questions. But we will never forget our friend, Sister Mary Ralph. on gut Do you want a gentle smile, a friendly greeting, or a few wise words of advice? If so, the person to see is Sister Mary Agnes. For three years she has been principal of Notre Dame and each of these years she has been everything we could ask for in o prin- cipal and friend. From Sophomore to Junior to Senior year, we've received the some loving guidance. Sister Mary Agnes also has done much to- ward furthering our motto of For God, Coun- try, and Notre Dame. Through her efforts we have joined the National Victory Corps and the Spiritual Victory Corps. Leaving Sister Mary Agnes is one of the sod aspects of graduation. Sister Mary Ralph, S.N.D.

These are the little sparks of remembrance that flash through our minds as we relive the year of '43. Es- pecially vivid are those religion classes which Father conducted weekly. His inimitable classroom manner was responsible for many peppy sessions. A keen mind coupled with his rich sense of humor are the keys to his suc- cess. We Seniors feel deeply sorry for the under- classmen who will not share with us in the friendly guidance of Father Frey who has left Notre Dame after nineteen years as a mem- ber of the faculty. We congratulate Father, though, on his appointment as pastor of St. Martha's parish in Akron and we know that he will be successful in his new work. Notre Dame will long remember Monsignor Frey. Rev.

Solemn, hushed, expectant, we entered Chapel for the first day of our Retreat. Solemnebecause we realized that for three days we were to be alone with our God; hushed efor only in the depths of our own souls could we find the silence wherewith to hear the Lord speak to us; expectanteas we waited to see what this great experience would really mean to each of us, not as a group but as an individual soul seeking the end for which it was made. We Seniors with the Juniors in the Chapel went through our day starting with Holy Mass, conferences, stations, rosary devotions, and culminating in Benediction. Freshmen and Sophomores were also having retreat at the same time in the auditorium, now trans- formed into a chapel where Christ in the Blessed Sacrament found another tabernacle for the three days of the retreat. Our retreat was a grand success but how could it have been otherwise with such retreat masters? Our Father Donnelly, president of John Carroll University, and the younger gen- Reverend Francis P. Callan, S. J. aired . . erations' Father Callan of St. Ignatius Higl- School, put into each of these short days al the important doctrines of our Religion. They made our faith really live and it was so easy tc see how God figures in our lives after it was explained. There were many things we learned fro our retreat, but these we want to remember especially. We're in business with the Lord building a roadea long, straight highway leading directly to God, with the Ten Com- mandments as signposts to guide us and make certain our way. Goodness is inherent in man's nature, and we have all the liberties of a child of God. That means that the more joy we know, the holier we are. Though we can' evade the shadow of the Cross in our lives, we can bear it with more patience and strength if we take as our model Him who carried the Cross of the World. l Everything we do must be determined by what God wants. Once we resign our wills to His, everything is comparatively simple. If W 1004 AWW gm QMW we but take advantage of the opportunities offered to us, it won't be hard to keep on God's side of eternity. Hell merely proves the mercy of GodeHe made it just so we would be sure to avoid it. Taking an incentive from our retreat, how easy it will be for us, the coming generation, to make our world safe not only for us but also for those peoples who have not been as fortunate as we. Henceforth our efforts will TOP: Life's greatest moment 05 Seniors and Juniors receive our Lord in the chapel.

It was a beautiful and inspiring retreat. As it closed we were all left with the thought that it had opened to us a new and loftier vision of goodness. Our modern, complex philosophies of life are taboo. Our newer mode of life will be sweeter, simplerl more Christ-like, built on the three standards of Praise, Love, and Service of God.

Since its directorship was taken over by Monsignor Carl E. Frey in l927, it has been the goal of the organization to build future citizens not only for the United States but also for God's Country, Heaven. Spiritual motivation is thus given to all ordinary school activities. This is sustained by monthly meetings pre- pared with Sister Mary Leroy, moderator, and conducted in the auditorium by the Sodality officers. Meetings conducted according to parliamentary procedure include opening prayer, committee reports of past activities, discussions on future enterprises, and a short feature reiterating the main thought for the month. Our Sodality activities are divided among various committees to give concentrated at- tention to their details. The Eucharistic-Our Lady's Committee has charge of all projects relating to Mary and Jesus such as distribu- Margaret Healey Second Assistant Marian Rehor Publicity Manager Bette King Secretary Kathleen Ryan Publicity Manager tion of medals for Sodality Communion every month, and spiritual leadership in the Apos- tleship of Prayer. Under the ward of the Apostolic Commit- tee come such projects as aiding the Social Mission Sisters by teaching Catechism, pro- gramming the Days of Recollection for girls of public schools, and knitting articles for men in the service. The Literature Committee is directly con- cerned with distribution of the Catholic Di- gest and The Queen's Work , the promo- tion of Catholic books for general reading, and the sending of pamphlets to service men. Duties of the Social Life Committee include entertainment at general Sodality meetings, parties for Social Mission Sisters, and main- tenance of the Personality Clinic for Sodale ists. Retreat notes, clever bulletin board dis- plays, and zippy pep talks are taken care of by the Publicity Committee. Working together with the Prefect, all com- mittees echo the motto, To Jesus through Mary. CW Km! to The Divine radiance from the Tab- ernacle enhances our dear memories of spiritual activities.

A notable date was the Cathedral Latin, Notre Dame Mission Mixer which put the Home Mission Society on the beam for a check for $59. On a certain Friday, candied apples at- tracted hungry students to sweet lusciousness for only $.05. Broken records played a merry tune for the record time drive in 201. Serv- ice chaplains were grateful for pamphlets, prayer books, and rejuvenated rosaries. So were foreign missionaries for piles of con- celled stomps.

We love you, and in these your hours of peril, we want most desperately to serve you. We cannot shoulder arms or man the production line, but we can render valuable aid to you by equip- ping ourselves spiritually, physically, and mentally for the vast tasks that lie ahead. We must broaden our minds and strengthen our wills and we have done this through the Student Council which trains us in obedience as well as leadership. We have fought the bottle of the present by buying War Bonds and Stamps and by turning in rubber and scrap. We have striven to mold God-feoring scientists of the future through the Science clubs; and we have strengthened our bodies through the Athletic Association. Through our newspaper The Tower green journalists become gentlemen of the press, a press which one day, please God, we may thoroughly Christianize; through the Tower Memories our annual, we learn the fruits of co-opero- tion, industry and initiative, vitol elements in post-war peace. Under the standards of the Mosque cmd Govel and Quill and Scroll we have explored worlds of learning. But never fear that we have forgotten that recreation, good times and laughs are necessary for America's defenders, too. Our proms, our dances, parties, dramatic clubs, glee clubs, all provide the niceties and culture of everyday life. We cannot fail you America, for our Catholic faith. We will not fail youeyou are our hope! 28 Therese Buettner President Eileen Gunther Secretary Dolores Coviello Treasurer m4 a me $45,; a Student government will build strong citizens. Democracy 0 Notre Dame has its outlet in the Student Council, the governin body of the students which directly Iegislates and enforces. lt i not the mere snapping of clickers nor the sight of badges that com- mands our respect of this student organization. The underlyin motivation is democratic government through self-government. Although the destiny of each class is in the hands of th Student Council, we rely on their governing ability because the are elected to this honor by the body to be governed as are all representatives of a democracy. The voice of the Student Council i the voice of the students who recognize the need of order even t prevent such minor casualties as corridor collisions. A mixture of two-thirds friendliness and one-third dignity char- acterize our Student Council representatives and monitors. Capa- bility, responsibility and efficiency are the ingredients that make a perfect blend. These characteristics would qualify any such stu- dent to fulfill her future duties as a capable citizen far beyond the capacities of her present high school days. Striving to uphold the high standard of our beloved Alma Mater, the Student Council has as its most recent accomplishment the Vic- tory Corps. Cooperating with this national high school organization to unite student effort with that of the government, the students have rallied generously to make successful the tin can, knitting, and scrap rubber drives, the O.P.A.'s demand for volunteer office workers, and supplying home baked goods for the Cathedral Canteen. During these patriotic drives sponsored by the Victory Corps under the direction of the Student Council there has been a steady stream of war bonds and stamps purchased by conscientious fighters on our home front. Several drives held on special occasions through- out the year also have netted results far beyond their goal. Pearl Harbor Day brought in a total of $2,468.75; the three-day campaign in honor of Washington's birthday boosted our total $1,764.25 higher. Cooperating with the nation-wide drive to help raise 10,000 jeeps and lOO army planes for Uncle Sam, 0 total of $21,591.75 was rolled up during the jeep drive-enough to pay for twenty- four jeeps! This drive began on March l and ended on Minute Man Day, April l9. Because 920; of the student body cooperated in buying bonds and stamps during the month of April, Notre Dame was the first school in Cleveland to merit the Treasury Department's schools-at-war Minute Man Flag. Bonds and stamps sold throughout ' the year amounted to $34181 1-35 by May 1' FRESHMEN STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS: Loretta Vargo, Treasurer; Shirley Smith, Secretary; Maryalice Ryan, President. emaczac7 OP, BACK ROW: Margaret Zboroy, eanne Iommorino, Marian Kerrigon, Rose ory McCune, Mary Feran, Helen Grill.

Gym classes accelerate for victory in a speed-up program of calisthenics. Ever since the finale of the Drama of Col- vory, red has been the color of sacrifice. Ever since the prelude of World War II, the twenty-second letter of the alphabet, V has taken on a similar meaning. Red, Sacrifice, and Victory all are symbols of the some ideal. Because of this, the Victory Corps, uniting students in a nationwide program of sacrifice for victory, has taken as its emblem of serv- ice, the large, red V . It is this V worn on the left sleeve of our Notre Dame uniform, that serves as a constant reminder of our duty to God and country in the wor program. 30 Student Council officers copobly headed the ad- ministrotion of the Victory Corps in which, besidei general membership, two other divisions were oper to us: the Community Service Division and the Aii Service Division. General membership was granted to the student who were taking courses that furthered the we effort, who participated in a physical fitness pro gram, and who purchased a stipulated amount 0 war stomps each month. Community Service members completed one od ditionol project each six weeks. Such projects in cluded: explanation of the point ration system t buyers, completion of a Red Cross First Aid Course volunteer work for O.P.A. or the ration board. The Air Service Division, stressed a practice knowledge of physics in regard to aviation. 46 3? Serve with a smile is the motto of Helen Grill, Alice McNeil and Josephine LoPresti, active members of the Victory Corps, who are modeling the ensignio of community service, aeronautics and general membership.

Today the world is the stage for the drama of World War II. Two forces are in conflict . materialism against recognition of the human soul. When the play is over and the dead march in solemn procession in another Flanders Field, who will be the victor? The answer is obvious, for victory is two- fold, material and spiritual. The nation whose citizens can sacrifice personal interests and endure another Good Friday in view of the Easter Morn, that notion shall be victor! Realizing this great value of the individ- uol's sacrifice, our Sodolity officers have in- troduced the Living Cross or the Spiritual Victory Corps. United under Christ's Cross of Sacrifice our army is invincible. 31 1: The enthusiastic salvogers of scrap metal are Patricia Kilfoyle, Charlotte Goggin, Mary Jane McGiIIy, Joan Dudz, and Woldemaro Stroiny. 2: Any stomps today?

It is only natural, therefore, that here at Notre Dame there are some who are especially interested in these apparent scientific miracles. To sat isfy their thirst for knowledge, they become members of the Nieuwland Science Club. This organization, ese tablished several years ago, was named for the famed Reverend Julius Nieuw- land, C.S.C., the discoverer of a pro- cess for producing butadiene, a form of synthetic rubber. This year found fifty members por- ing over Bunsen burners, distillation apparatus, and evaporating dishes whenever time permitted.

At the beginning of their first year, the charter members studied model building tech- nique and simple aeronautics. They spon- sored an Aviation Week, featuring Mr. Ray T. CrOWeH from the Cleveland Press as a speaker and model-airplcme motors demon- strotor. eei m tie wanna During the summer of '42, the Sky Club assembled and purchased a gas model kit. One of the members visited the Lewis School of Aeronautics Cit Lockport, Illinois; two others made an inspection tour of the Cleveland Air- port in October. This year the club introduced a modified pre-flight course, which includes the study of the ports of planes, the theory of flight, air- craft classification, methods of flying a plane, types of motors, instruments, navigation, TOP: Learning the intricacies of an airplane ore Colette Lolly, Rose Ann Eichenberg, Margaret Zboray, Ethel Knapik, Jone Simko, Rita Stachuro, officers of the Nieuwlcmd Sky Club.

An- ther course offered was model building, in- luding the art of making silhouette models or identification. The last course was an air- raft spotters program. These future avia- trices make aviation a full-time hobby by reading numerous books on this subject. The Sky Club worked on various projects in cooperation with the Cleveland Press. At he celebration of the club's first anniversary r. Ed Clark, from the Cleveland Press, gave brief talk to the members. This year the Sky Club received an un- sual honor for a girls' club: it was given he task of planning and developing the heme for the aviation display at the annual portsman Show of Cleveland, held each year t the Arena. The purpose of the display, 5 worked out by the members of the Sky iub, was to show the place of women in viation. Another project of the club was the sil- houette scrap books in which 222 outline iews of planes were assembled, cut, identi- ied, and mounted with pictures, making a total of 72 complete American and foreign lanes. These scrap books were given to the avy for use in training inductees in the fund- mentals of airplane spotting. In the course f the year, several games were introduced in rder to make plane spotting an entertaining ield as well as an educational one. The last activity of the club was the span- oring of a bake sale to raise funds for awards. irst and second prize winners received a pecial pair of wings and an airplane flight. he other members made a field trip to the irport. Interest in the Sky club has aroused new nthusiasm in aviation. Some of the mem- ers have decided to seek employment in arious fields: as airpiane mechanics, stew- rdesses, pilots, WAFS, or manufacturers of eronautical equipment. Notre Dame is again in the front line of the ight on the home front, thanks to the Nieuw- and Sky Club. TOP: This year the Nieuwland Sky Club celebrated its first birthday.

The highest Dorothy Wolf Vice-President Mary Feran President 40 Constance Griffith Treasurer Gloria Karpinski Secretory award for 1500 points was a silver initialed pin. A blue and white chenile N. D. was given for 1000 points and a charm bracelet for 500. Another part of the physical educa- tion department was the newly estab- lished Leaders' Club. Members of this club were chosen from among ap- plicants who evinced special qualities of leadership, physical fitness and scholarship. Duties of the group consisted of assisting in the gym classes by teaching and demonstrat- ing tactics previously taught them in their weekly meetings. The urgent demand of our country for more extensive physical training programs was met by these two organ- izations in the programs they offered. Every season was crammed full of activities in which everyone interested had a chance for active participation. Many were the after-school sessions of volleyball, basketball, badminton and every other sport. Those who were new at the games soon found willing and able teachers in the more experi- enced players who later struggled to hold their own against their fast- progressing pupils. TOP, THE A. A.

BOTTOM: The Championship Game between the Seniors and Juniors. atieog $Qoozb For the third consecutive year, the class of '43 took top honors in the volleyball tourney held to de- termine the champions here at Notre Dame. The opening tilt of the season went to the Seniors by a score of 42-5. In their first game, one of the hottest of the entire season, the Juniors edged out the Sophs 39-32. Two days later on November 12, the unlucky Sophs again suffered defeat, this time at the hands of the Seniors. Making a valiant showing until the half, the Sophs finally weakened to give the older team a victory at 44-27. Unable to cope with the skill of the Juniors, the Frosh chalked up their second defeat when they made only ii points to their opponents 42. They again took a blanking when they met the high scoring Sophs on November 16. During the entire season, both the Seniors and Juniors went unde- feated so that their first meeting on November 24, was to decide the official champions. Piling up a two point lead in the first few minutes of play, the Juniors threatened the Seniors' superiority right up to the final whistle. A three point advan- tage, however, won the game and their third volleyball championship for the class of '43. A gold trophy, later inscribed with the class numerals, was pre- sented to the Senior captain at the end of the game. This, the last and only night contest of the season, featured a stunt program, arranged and conducted by Dawn Phillips, head of volleyball. wmoie eaZtA 4146! JientzsiAL??4 Sportsmanship, the theme of all athletics, was the keynote at the second annual Play Day sponsored by the Athletic Association on Jan- uary 29. Eighty enthusiastic girls arrived at nine o'clock on the semester holiday to spend the morn- ing and early afternoon playing vol- leyball, basketball and many other games intended to provide fun and promote friendship. Board members, appointed by the president, served on the organiza- tion, program and refreshment committees. These committees ar- ranged the entire program for the day. Ten girls were placed on each team and given the title of some branch of the armed services: the Air Corps, Waacs, Waves, Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, and Red Cross. Points were awarded for each event won. by the teams and the highest scoring group, the Navy, was given first choice of the cakes supplied as prizes. The primary purpose of the Play Day was to foster a spirit of friend- ship among A. A. members and to satisfy faithful sports enthusiasts.

Starting on December 1, scores of enthusiastic beginners and experienced players alike spent hours in after-school prac- tices to perfect their skill of passing, shoot- ing and pivoting. The night games of February 9 and Febru- ary 16 left the Juniors and Seniors undetected for the championship playoff on February 23. Edging the younger team out by only three points, the former champions were again oc- claimed victors by a score of 20-17. Members of the team were awarded sterling silver bos- ketboll charms at the April meeting of th- A.A. Ending the season on a patriotic note, th lost battle of the year was that between th AII-Stor WAVES and the WAACS, held 0 March 2. Outstanding players from the fou varsity squads were elected to these teams by popular vote of their teammates. More than 500 eager spectators watched the WAACS struggle to outpoint the WAVES for a final score of 25-21. Proceeds from the game were divided equally and sent to the Catholic chaplains of the WAVES and th- WAACS, Eileen O'Leary, head of basketball, con- ducted a stunt-night program between the halves of the game. Dorothy Wolf, a Senior, won the fouI-shooting contest, and Jean Dick, 0 Junior, won the 21 contest. Time out for Miss Helen Komp while Miss Lillian Aitken takes over the basketball games. Will it be a basket for Anna Rita Rieman?? Geraldine Avalon tries hard to block Eileen O'Leary's shot. Father Daniel enioys himself in the midst of a group of Juniors. Mary Feran, Joan Auble, Eileen Gunther, and Therese Cywinski wonder if it will be a good shot or not. Jean Dick shoots a basket while Joan Auble and Mary Eleanore Koch look on. Loretta Vargo blocks Rosemarie Mihelich's shot while Rita English, Mary Eleanore Koch, Veronica Mihelich and Jean De Capite go into action. Rosemarie Mihelich provides a tense mo- ment for basketball tans. Who had the ball last? Who's going to get it next? For the answer see Mary Columbro or Eileen O'Leary or Eurydyce Compensa. Effective guarding as produced by the Seniors. Here we have Eileen Gunther stop- ping the shot of Joan Auble while Coletta McNamara, Virginia Bondi and Mary Feran guard the rear. 45 i i i i i 46 mum! iAe yam in $szb Paging through the calendar of the Athletic Association we can find many dates that bring back memories and perhaps tears.

Mary Rita Keating Prom Queen 48 ed :12 The soft lights of Hotel Stotler' main ballroom seemed to smile op provingly at the gorgeous sight Ou Lady's Seniors and Juniors made on January 15, 1943. Perfumed flowers of youth filled th powder room and combined with all the ohs! , ahs! and how supers,' while our dates waited outside in stif collared tuxes. The melodic tunes of Willard cm his radio orchestra filled the ballroo with jiving tunes. We thought ou programs of red, white, and blue with little braided tassels to hang over ou wrists, too pretty to write in; so in- stead, we added them to our boxes 0 fond memory makers. On the cove of the program was an outline of the Gothic towers of Notre Dame. Mary Rita Keoting, our Prom queen, lent on air of distinction as she and her king, Patrick Blepp danced the royal waltz to Moonlight Becomes You. Her gown of ice blue brocade and net shimmered and glowed while the lights of the ballroom were turned low. After the royal couple danced, the committee danced with their es- corts. It was thrilling to watch these twelve couples come out from different parts of the ballroom and blend in a kaleidoscope of color. Heading the list and helping to make our Prom the best ever were, Marion Kerrigan, Senior class presi- dent and Joseph Gronzir; Margaret Creodon, class secretary and Viets Collister; Helen Arnold, treasurer with Ted Walters.

Sally Senior sighed as she sang the Notre Dame Day par- ody for the last time. Sally wasn't sentimental but it was hard to keep a lump from get- ting in her throat when she realized that there would never be another Notre Dame Day for her. But Sally had one consolationeshe will al- ways have her memories. She'll always remember the mad scramble for Senior auto- graphs on their mock gradua- tion hats. She'll remember those llsuper Juniors, Sophs, and Freshies who made this day so memorable by going all out for fun. There will be memories too of Lavender and Red Pepper in which the dramatic club made its first offering of the year. And how could she possibly forget the traditional spread of food which was so welcome after the long and colorful parade along the campus? Or that delightful movie in which Deanna Durbin made Sally laugh and cry. And to top all, the Sisters were just swell about everything. We will all remember, after years of fond memories locked in our hearts, the day when we were partners in sports and classesu-when we were to- gether back in old '42. I love a parade especially if it's the Notre Dame Day parade led by Marion Kerrigan, Senior class presi- dent. Only one more after this, so the Juniors are going all-out far frisky fun and frolic.

Since then, additional workers and assistants have made it possible to have almost one-third of the Senior class working on this year book. It has been a responsible and an arduous task but our memories are all pleasant ones. From the first tremulous and uncertain attempts at progress to the efficient and busy system of March and April, the hard work has been tempered by laughs, crazy errors lgremlin anticsll and many en- joyable get-togethers. Perhaps this would be the best occasion for the staff to express its gratitude to all those friends who have helped us in our efforts. There just aren't words to say how we feel toward Sister Mary Luke. Her patience, her ingenuity, help, and sense of humor have pulled us through many .a difficult session and over many a jarring bump. Thanks also are due to Sister Mary Celia, whose excellent and efficient handling of the books has successfully made both ends meet. Sister Mary Germaine must also receive her due credit for having directed so aptly the art department of our staff. Mr. Jay C. Smith, representative of John and Ollier, has made many new friends through his guidance, his understanding, and his wisdom in leading us through the bewilderment and newness of our task. Many of the faculty and students deserve commendation for their co- operation, spontaneity and interest in offering information for detailed articles. Thanks are also due to those Seniors who volunteered for all the menial but tedious jobs that accompanied the assembling of our annual. So we offer you Tower Memories. It has nurtured a deeper under- standing between the faculty and the students; it has developed many new friendships and strengthened many old ones; it has taught us the value of diligence and patience; it has provided laughs and good times and has served as a challenge to those willing to try their hand at a different and absorbing task. To all those who take it out into life with them, we hope Tower Memories will be what a book should be-a companion in solitude, a com- forter in distress, a memory in reverie, and a helpmate on the long road home. 2467 7:8 eJWOVLAigle . a .

The first class to be graduated during World War II chose instead to show its emotions through the stronger medium of action. This they did by presenting as their class play the emotion- olly stirring Letters to Lucerne. One of the year's ten Broadway hits, it was a lovely and moving plea for tolerance which carried Ci message to every member of the sell- out audiences who viewed it. As a modern drama it was certainly one of the most popular and timely plays which will ever be seen here at Notre Dame. The play dealt with the lives and feelings of several girls, attending an American school in Switzerland and caught in the web of evii which began to spread in Europe in 1939. Each girl was from one of the different coun- tries involved in the conflict, and so quite na- turally eoch held her own view of the situation.

The feeling toward Erna t the beginning of the action is on an equal ith that of all the other girls at the school. 5 her country begins its ruthless march on her notions, however, she is made to bear e brunt of the attacks in the reactions of er schoolmates. The treatment is so no- ral and so typically human that it might ave been extended by any American, Pole, r Frenchman. enes from our Class Ploy. TOP: Gloria Karpinski, orgaret Healey, Rosemarie Zehe. BOTTOM: Dolores bood, Therese Turkey, Doris Schoefer. 97 Olga Kirinski, the Polish student played by Gloria Karpinski, remained faithful to her sweetheartis sister until she was made to be- lieve that Erna favored the actiOns that had caused the death of her entire family in War- saw. The gripping scene in which Olga de- nied her friend was the climax of the play, and stirred the audience to pity both for the German girl and her overwrought Polish friend. Peacemaker in the troubled situation was the tender and loving Mrs. Hunter, owner and house-mother of the school, who at first tried to shelter the girls from the knowledge of the tyranny that hed crept into the world. Mrs. Hunter, played by Grace Needham, saw the folly of blaming a nation's faults on one girl and proceeded to win the girls over to the right by showing them the beauty and womane liness of tolerance and love. After once more creating a spirit of contentment and friend ship among her pupils, Mrs. Hunter agreed to continue the school in spite of oil the cone flicting circumstances. At the close of the play, the audience was convinced that the only truly democratic and Christian solution to the problem had been reached. The performances given on Friday and Sun- day evenings were presented to capacity audi- ences attracted by the timely theme and the popular cast of the play. Record soles of tickets were turned in by Rosemarie Zehe and Louise Goetz, who took the part of a teacher at the school. Proceeds from the sales were used by the Senior class to present a gift to the school upon their graduation. Scenery was chosen and arranged by Sister Mary Alicia and Mr. Charles Mills. Sister Mary Alicia also directed the many practices necessary to make the play the marvelous success that it was. From the moment the curtain rose on the first scene until the very last curtain call, the hours of hard and willing study expended by each member of the cast were evident. Never has a more convincing and dramatic effort been offered for the appreciation of 0 Notre Dame audience. 65 WM em mi TOP: Newly elected members of the Quill and Scroll ore istandingi Margaret Creadon, Kitty McEilin, iseatedi Mary Knuth and Nancy Brody.

CMLce 246? OVL$IXL6Z The literary work of four Seniors was recog nized this year by their admission into th Quill and Scroll. A national society for hig school journalists, the Quill and Scroll h annually admitted Notre Dame students wi journalistic abilities. Among other qualifications, members u this society must be Seniors in the upper thi of their class, have done superior work in wri ing, editing, or busihess managing, and mu be recommended by their supervisor of stL dent publications. Realizing that speech is the expression . man's sociability, two years ago Notre Do introduced Masque cmd Gavel, a national hig school society for the promotion of go- speech. At present, the society is compos- of eight Seniors and three Juniors, who we elected by the faculty. During the past year, Masque and Gov members participated in the Student Spec: ers' Bureau of the War Chest campaign, th. presented the Victory Variety Show for t ambulance drive, and they produced t Blue Star Mothers' Program for the mothe of men in service. 68 Perhaps one of the clearest things in our annual will be the pictures of our comrades in study. The years will separate us and time may ever change us, but always we will have these glimpses of friends, and subsequen memories of good times, when we page through this part of our yearbook Not only those who graduated this June 6, but all those behind us Juniors, Sophs, and Freshies-ethey, too, are remembered here. And we cannot forget the Notre Dame Guild. It provided some might good times for us, in addition to serving as that important link betwee parents and teachers. High school days are overewe have known our last Notre Dame day our last Senior party, our last Senior Prom, our last Sodality Dance. The are all behind us. The absorbing and compelling adventure that is lit- stretches ahead and each of us has her very own rainbow to follow, he very own star to reach. Yet in all the joys and the sorrows that the future holds, none of u- will find a joy greater than our school days; none of us will feel a sorro quite like that of leaving Notre Dame. Not that we will ever forsake her SPIRIT. The guidance, love, on protection of our heavenly mother will accompany us out through the portal and into the world. And with that maternal core constantly with us, he can we ever forget the home of our school days? The spirit of Notre Dame will conquer our sorrow and share our joy; it will be an integral part of us forever. We'll not forget you Notre Dam eyou are our Love! 69 7O Margaret Creadon Marian Kerrigan Helen Arnold Secretory President Treasurer MARIAN KERRIGAN, beloved Senior class president, Emerald Isle roguishness, Kil- lorney's charm, our very own Marion . . .

The ceremony of the rings is a tie of lasting friendship between the Juniors and Seniors; for love of a friend when friendship fades leaves embers . . . lovely embers. Memories glowing in a darkness . . . . heart spent. A ring is such a tiny thing, but its purpose is so significant. And as Jean Konyesni, Junior Class president so perfectly put it: There is a charm in o ring that encircles the finger of a woman. It binds her to an Alma Mater, 0 man, or a Heavenly Bride- groom . . . On this occasion we are concerned with the ring that binds us to our Alma Mater. It is true that all high school graduates receive class rings but how many have the privilege of wearing our Lady's ring . . . The Seniors have explained the sig- nificance of our ring and we want them to feel confident that we will cherish and honor the good name of Notre Dame We thank these loyal girls for all they have done and we assure them that we shall try to carry on their some fine ideals.

Remember? Remember Senior Day when we received our honors and each pros- pective Senior began to hope for that special recognition in l44? Remember when we knelt in chapel together for the last time and the air was tense with that prayerful something that our Juniors felt when the obligate of Schuberts' Ave Maria rose to Heaven? Remember that look of mingled sor- row and happiness that shivered in a Junior's tear we noticed when we glanced past the tassel on our cap- that tearful look that said, We'll be just as good and even better. Next year, Notre Dame will be just as proud of us as she is of you today. Remember? . . . Remember the lunchroom laughter, the chapel still- ness, the sanctity of retreat, the class worries, the date problems, the little heartaches and the sweet successes that we shared together? We'll al- ways remember these. The years have a habit of dimming even the most vivid remembrances, but time can never erase the meme ories we shall cherish forever of our Junior class. With all these thoughts in mind we know that the Juniors will always be right in our eyes and in God's tooeand after all that's what counts, isn't it? Together we'll look future-wards to next year when our Juniors will be Seniors, and we'll be hoping and pray- ing that it will be a victorious year for America and for us. jmzm jmmlzm CJnAm'z Zia Wt 90 June Gerak Margaret Goecker Charlotte Goggin Betty Gongos Cathleen Gorbett Mary Clare Gorman Geraldine Graham Rose Marie Grodecki Lily Gruftadaurio Marjorie Hobinok Eileen Hahn Wanda Hardulok Helen Harks Mary Jane Hillenbrond Ann Hufmon Mary Ann Jonovick Ethel Jones Jeanne Marie Jordon Rita Ann Kolous Jeanne Korcher Mary Lou Keils Patricio Kenney Louise Ketchum Marilyn Keyes Eleanor Kieno Margaret Kirchner Mary Ann Klecok Ethel Knapik Bertha Koenig Patricio Konz Audrey Kotkowski Mary Lodutko Geraldine Laffey Mary Paul Lambers Juanita Laney Catherine Leach Eileen Lozik Audrey Lutheran Mary Ellen Lynch Jean McGee Mary Jane McGilly Helen McGuire Patricia McKenna Virginia Manthey Bernadette Mousser Marilyn Miller Mary Ann Miller Mary Emerson Miller The Sophomores of Notre Dome, in their newly acquired senior high dig- nity, seem bound on outdoing us all in pep, ideas, class spirit and good times. Their executive officers, Mor- tho Maynard, president, Lillian Lang- ton, secretory, Virginia Verhunce, treasurer, lead a class that has cared for the children at St. Ann's Matere nity Hospital, decorated their tree and collected toys for them at Christmas, mode bandages, sponsored a highly successful Soph mixer, and has gone oll-out for basketball. The Sophs have campaigned for fewer and more regular class meete ings, and have shown us the way by holding their meetings once every month with each home-room taking a turn at providing entertainment. On February 2, they become com- panions of Mary and Sodality sisters of the Juniors and Seniors. Their class colors symbolize their spirite blue for the loyalty they have pledged to Mary and to America; gold for the truth they so valiantly seek. We're proud of our Sophomores and we hope that as Seniors of Notre Dome and future citizens of the world they can look back to their Sophomore year and say proudly, HWe've fulfilled our promise to work for Our Mother; we've kept our pledge of loyalty to Her-we are truly companions of Mary.

JU-aimetican, yill-Wolte Emma Quikg Eighteen years ago, the Notre Dame Guild was established to further the educational work of the Sisters of Notre Dame. It has done this through sponsoring social 0 c t i v i t i e s that strengthened relations among Sisters, students, and parents. Now the Notre Dame Guild claims 600 members, parents and friends of the students, who are interested in Guild activities. As members they re- ceive ma ny spiritual advantages. Among these are the participation in the Masses heard by the Sisters and special Masses said for the members of the Guild, special prayers for re- quested intentions, and mementos of- fered for deceased members. 102 TOP PICTURE: Guild Mothers who served as a committee on th April War Bond Carnival are tstondingt Mrs. William T.

To aid and obet the Notre Dame Guild was the purpose for the establishment this year of the Notre Dame Junior Guild com- posed of students especially interested in Guild activities. With the organization of this group, the regular Notre Dame Guild, which has constantly and unobtrusively worked for Notre Dame, become known as the Senior Guild. Some of the accomplishments of the Senior Guild have been the redecoroting of the chapel, the furnishing of electrical op- plicmces for the home economics laboratory, and equipment for the chemistry department. The highlights on the social calendar of the Guild during the past year have been the pop- ulor Foll Social, the Christmas rattle, the Erin go Brough for St. Patrick's Day, and OP, LEFT: Committee for an afternoon cord party included Mrs. ickernell, Mrs. William T. Slick. the April Carnival. Besides these activities, members of the Mothers' Club have devoted one day eoCh week to meetings at Notre Dame for Red Cross knitting. Helping with the activities of the Senior Guild kept the ninety-five members of the Junior Guild quite busy. At the social events they acted as check girls or hostesses. In free time otter school they did filing, checking and many other routine duties for the progress of the Senior Guild and Notre Dame. These two groups working together illus- trote the three phases into which this book is divided. Both are working ultimately for God, through activities that have the good of country and Notre Dome at heart.

Between her studies, Elsie managed to canvass from house to house and obtain friend- ly and business patrons for the annual. She is the second Junior to merit this award. We owe many thanks to those who succumbed to Elsie's persuasions, for they helped to make our yearbook a success. Her Maid of Honor is Arlene Tussay, a Senior who brought in a large amount of money and so helped to further the cause of the annual. The faculty and the staff owe gratitude to the patrons as well as to all the classes. It is also fitting that we thank our photographer -CheshireeHigbee, our printereJudson Com- pany, our engravereJahn and Ollier Engrav- ing Company, and our cover companyeTh- S. K. Smith Company. The Catholic Universe Bulletin deserves thanks for the picture of th- Most Reverend Edward F. Hoban, coadjuto Bishop of Cleveland.
