Was it war that Sherman so aptly described in that much-quoted phrase, or was he too merely attempting to find that elusive elevator while a dozen odd fand we do mean oddj seniors directed him in thirty-six different directions? Well, we made it home safely anyhow, despite the fact that we had the brazen audacity to refuse our seats on the bus to seniors. The doctor seems confident that the black and blue marks will wear off in due time. February 16, 1941 Dear Diary: During activity period we invited the sopho- mores to our all-freshman assembly at which everything from soup to nuts was presented. But let's not call harsh names in these critical times! Yesterday we young innocents were intro- duced to the wiles of political intrigue, the re- sults of which were as follows: President, Bob Hatch: Vice-President, Jack Fitzpatrick: Secre- tary, Ann Huntington: and Treasurer, Nancy Eddy. , June 17, 1941 Dear Diary: No more pencils, no more books, No more teachers' dirty looks! September 4, 1941 Dear Diary: Well, vacation is over and faces everywhere seem so strange. fdidn't they always?j Any- how, here we are, big sophs--figuratively, of course, with the satisfaction now of not being looked down upon fit says herej as mere fresh- men. December 8, 1941 Dear Diary: This morning, the entire student body, not fully recovered from the initial shock of Japan's barbaric attack on an obscure little pinpoint on the map called Pearl Harbor, heard in the as- sembly of the formal declaration of war upon Japan. March 25, 1942 Dear Diary: Under the supervision of our oliicers, jack Fitzpatrick, Bill Wiehl, Ann Huntington, and Ann McGarry, our sophomore class gave a very successful roller skating party in the gym, at which approximately three hundred students spent hours on end--and enjoyed themselves at that. Need we explain? june 19, 1942 Dear Diary: This memorable date marks the end of our lowly status as underclassmen. We are ap- proaching, but fast, that critical age at which men are men and women are finally becoming aware of it. September 9, 1942 Dear Diary: Ho hum! another school year has rolled around. Contrary to popular opinion, the female sex is not the weaker one, as has been proven by the election of Dorothy DeVore as president of these here juniors. Dot is supplemented by Bob Hitchcock, Ann McGarry, and Elyse Nussenfeld. ' March 1, 1943 Dear Diary: We have recently added a new word to our vocabulary. Some say rationing and some say rationing: but in any man's language it means: We got it but you ain't gonna git it. On the other hand, a certain three-letter word has be- come practically obsolete. Hint: It begins with m and terminates with en . June 12, 1943 Dear Diary: Yesterday we had our Class Day Assembly, at which six boys and seven girls were tapped for Senior Council. David Bannatyne and Bob Schulz were elected President and Vice-Presi- dent respectively. Last night our class gave the traditional Junior Prom for the seniors. The pleasure driving ban and the gas shortage failed to hinder the more ingenious members of the student body and illustrious faculty, who arrived in various and sundry contrivances, ranging from bicycles to haywagons. September 9, 1943 Dear Diary: Under the jurisdiction of our new oflicers- Ed Dietrich, Ed Chervansky, Fannie Rose, and Ann McGarry--we begin our fourth and final, Qwe hopej, year at F. H. S.: it hardly seems pos- sible that we have changed so radically in three short years from naive CPD freshmen to what we are today, Ccensoredj. February 21, 1944 Dear Diary: Tonight the Senior Class sponsored a Foot- ball Hop in honor of our undefeated Class A Champ Football team. Socially, it was a big success: financially, it was one of those things one discusses in hushed tones. Net profitfone dollar! May 31, 1944 Dear Diary: For the past year our class has been dwindling steadily until now the ratio of the sexes is ap- proximately three to one. It seems that Uncle Sam has greater need of the youth of the nation than the female element has. Or are we under- estimating the female element? June 14, 1944 Dear Diary: Today is the last of many days which we have spent at Roger Ludlowe. On the whole, they have been happy, thanks to our patient and understanding faculty. We thank Mr. Swaflield for enduring us so long without reacting too violently. We thank Mr. Whittaker for assum- ing the role of Mr. Anthony these four tedious years, and last, but certainly not least, we thank Mr. McGuire and Mr. Rosenthal for their ready wit and its application in the classroom. Tonight we shall graduate, feeling the loss of the twenty-two boys in our class who sacrificed high school to enter some branch of the armed forces: William Boyle, Lennart Fortell, Milton Gould, Joseph Matuskowitz, Fred Meeker, Robert Nielson, Joseph Smith, Thomas Sweeney, john Swindon, Marcel Traczyk, Harold Yo- vanovitch, Donald Gleacher, Henry Kniese, John Royak, Frank Ruskay, Jr., Joseph Skultety, Edward Walshe, Jr., George Mahoney, Frank Leavy, Douglas Conklin, and Francis Hustek. All too soon it's time to leave for graduation and time now to close the diary of the class of 1944. The above excerpts from the personal diary of the class of 1944 were compiled and slightly colored by Lois Ann Coburn, Ann McGarry, and Dean Albert. iN 1 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY First row, left to right: A.

Bob Ecsedy CLASS PROPHECY The social system of America has been radi- cally changed since the end of World War II. This world has become a woman's paradise, with the women controlling business, family life, poli- tics, and, in fact, everything. I quote from Estelle Herold's latest column, My Night. After an intensified study of the characteristics and abilities of the average male, I have come to the conclusion that the man's place is in the home. There is no more to be said. We men have been forged into oblivion by the incessant demands of the over-ambitious, over-articulate Amazons. Take my sad case, for example. This morn- ing the little woman had to get to Dannmeyer's Boiler Factory earlier than usual. So I served breakfast to her in bed and then handed her the lunch bucket as she flitted a-la-Dagwood out the back door to meet Marie Wrabel and Carolyn Lindstrom, her fellow broom-pushers at the plant. I next decided to feed Hardtack. She's the other she-male of my erstwhile happy family. In preparation I donned my flowery apron with the belt in the back, my brass knuckles, and lead pipe, custom-built by Signes. Hawkins' Toastie Wheatsies did not seem to appeal to her finicky taste, but she really went for George's Gooey Grapenutsf' If Bernice hopes to compete with Mary's superior product, she had better add some Vitamin X , newly discovered by Professor Dean Albert, the emi- nent chemist and test tube washer. You might laugh, but this house-keeping racket is not all that it is cracked up to be. This morning, for example, as I was stringing up the family wash on the Clauson Gyro-Whirl Clothes Reel, a contraption that only a dizzy blonde could devise, I happened to strike up an over-the- back-fence conversation with Leon Honcharik, a fellow slave. Ever since his helpmate brought home an opened pay envelope from Phil Linley's Helicopter Repair Shop, Leon has been sulking like a spoiled child. Leon, I said, here comes that new Fuller Brush woman. It looks like Jean Bassett. How long has she been selling these things? As she came staggering up the walk carrying three display cases and a mop, I addressed her as follows: Good morning, Jean, have you got a com- bination potato-peeler, ice pick, and hair curler? You have? This gruesome gadget having been purchased, Jean continued on her weary way. Bake, old fellow, Leon mumbled from under his Kleenex, I'll call up all of the fellows and we'll meet at Johnson's Juke Joint. Yes, sir, I'll be there if I can sneak out, but there's the phone ringing-I'll see you later. Although I made an heroic spring down the front hall, Hardtack arrived at the phone first. Hello, she said, in an arrogant voice, To whom do I have the dubious distinction of con- versing with? Who? Yeah-he's here. And then my tactful off-spring turned to me and said, Someone is so destitute of social con- tacts that she wants to talk to you. Only after I had pried the phone out of her feverish grasp with a two-by-four, was I able to talk in peace. Mr. Baker, this is Dr. Talbot's secretary, treasurer, and adviser, Mary Lou Jennings. When do you want Martha Lennon and Dot De- Vore to psychoanalyze your delightful child? Thursday? At two? All right, good-bye. These secretaries can't remember any thing from one day to another, I murmured as I put down the phone. But Hardtack did not allow time for even such disparaging remarks. She shouted, in her rasping voice, Hey, you, I want to go down to Ben Benson's Pharmaseutical Dis- pensary. I'm thirsty. Let's go, dog-biscuit, I replied, grab your chapeau and kindly put on your best manners. After she had gulped down two frosts and a soda, I checked her at Sue Sherwood's Happy Day Nursery, where Nurse Anna Mae Eklund was in charge. Then I continued to browse around the main street of the thriving metropolis, thinking about my high school days when I used to think that George Fingelly talked a lot. That kid Hardtack has George beat by miles. Don't remember seeing Skudlarek's Beauty Salon here before, I suddenly thought. The joint was jammed to the silver-plated portals of the transparent door. Say! That looks like Marge Hansen and Nancy Buchanan getting the works. Even in a beauty parlor these models never waste a minute. Apparently Lillian Cramer was getting an interview with Nancy for the Fairfield Times, and Mildred Blank seemed to be taking care of Miss Hansen's extensive fan mail. just then the noon whistle on Doc Condon's Toothpick Factory blew, and I decided that I'd better get the shopping done. The wife had sugested that I put some steak un- der the mushrooms, so I went to Ruth Ander4 so'n's Cozy Corner Grocery Store to get four pounds of butter and six pounds of steak. Good Morning, Ruth, I said in a tone of supplication. HM! she observed quizzically, the scullery maid of Wishful Vista has arrived at last. Your wife had already left the order. I'll have Norma Dowin drop it off in Doug Conklin's old P-38 that she bought yesterday. Soon I was standing in the corner by the fruit stand squeezing the twenty-nine cent oranges. I said Hello to Dr. Fred Walker, headmaster of the town's leading educational institution. He expounded on Darwin's theory for at least fif- teen minutes. Is that man smart! Single, also! However, this elevating conversation was inter- rupted by heart-rending cries and urgent vociferation somewhere in the next block. After rushing to the scene of the accident, we saw that Herman Farkash had become entangled in his new retreading machine. The poor fellow was delirious-mumbling about his four cars and his A tickets. Recovering somewhat, he insisted that I go to the hospital with him, and since he had a vice-like grip on my clavicle, I couldn't refuse. After a hectic ride in the Ozone Express, driven by Shirley Bridge, we arrived in one piece. Poor Herman was rushed to surgery and I stayed in the waiting room and conversed with Lil MacIntosh, the chief receptionist. She informed me that my friend would be on the table for at least an hour. I decided to depart for the Art Emporium of Corrigan and Burnham. On the way out, I heard two nurses-Trudy Mann and Gloria Golesky-talking Cas usualj about the brilliant work' of Dr. Shirley Potter, who is getting to be quite a cut-up. I finished my shopping and finally went to pick up Hard- tack. As I walked into the nursery, I saw that the place was in shambles and that all of the little boys were wearing dark glasses. Upon inquir- ing whether they had weak eyes, I was informed that they had developed sad cases of Oculus Negro or black eyes, apparently some of Hard- tack's work. After I had convoyed the budding pugilist through a crowd of irritated parents, I delivered a lecture on proper decorum in public places, but I think that the brat has not had enough education to understand such a discourse. Within the past few months there has been a tendency to emphasize physical education for children, but Kay Carroll, the king pin of this movement, has really been overdoing a good thing. Evidently Miss Barbara Smith, the cele- brated psychologist, agrees with me, since she advocated that the teaching of home economics would better prepare a child for the future. Shirley Wicht, Jean Wade, and Virginia Bonney, who are all experts in home economics, have collaborated with Miss Smith, and I hope that their decisions will help me solve my problems with Hardtack. What a tough situation! But as E. Pluribus Pliny, the Elder, once re- marked to his son, Tempus Fugit. As far as house-keeping is concerned, he couldn't have touched upon a more timely subject. After our return from downtown this afternoon, the kid had enough time to tear the living room apart, but soon the broken dishes were filed in the waste receptacle, and the wife had a poker game in progress in the next room. Before leaving for the rendezvous at John- son's after dinner, I read the paper for a few minutes. According to one article, John Wasco is picking Eddy Staber to flatten Mountmerency O'Toole. It also reports that Edward Lengyel, the promoter of this listic extravaganza, is look- ing for a hundred thousand dollar gate, but it's my guess that after the janitors clean up the ring with blotters, he won't find more than seventy grand when he looks into the till. Any man who owns the New York Mudhens, coached by mastermind Henry Recklet, and who worries about a little thing like money, is certainly in a bad way. As I read, I wished that the kid would turn off that radio, but I thought that if. she wanted to listen to something educational, I did not mind. Suddenly I was startled at hearing a familiar voice on the educational program. Good evening, folks. This is Bob Ecsedy, who invites you to listen to 'Life Should Be Beautiful,' starring True Cochran, the glamorous star of stage, screen, and vaudeville. But first, a word from my sponsor, Wells' General Store. If your chickens are weak, emaciated, and if their egg production is way below par, you owe it to them and to yourself to confer with our poultry expert, Florence Kerkes, who will dem- onstrate the revolutionary methods of Miss Miriam Wilson, whose chickens are leading the country in egg production. At this point I placed a penny in a light socket and promptly rendered the radio useless, along with other electrical appliances. This being a perfect time to escape, I leaped into my Sholtes Super Skymobile, and departed for Connie Johnson's Hacienda for Harassed Husbands. As I started to walk .through the front doorway, I saw the imperial potentate of Local 23 Brother- hood of Bellhops and Bell Ringers, George Mahoney, accompanied by a cordon of body- guards. No doubt they are going to Hilton's Hide-A-Way to collect donations from the em- ployees of that luxurious hostelry. But now, on to the conference. On that night the future of Vir Americanus was to be decided. Many great business men were gathered there, and with their help and timely advice, we tried to lift ourselves out of our lowly rut. The proceedings got off to a flying start with a band number by Tommy Neznek and his Makes You Want to Sit the Next One Out orchestra. This aggregation of solid senders, composed of Frankie Baron on the drums, George Catandella on the harpsicord, Bob Hitchcock playing his faithful slip hom, and a reed section with Jim CPanchoj Brader, John Buchanan, and T. N. himself, which is, as the Spaniards would say, Muy Bien. The trumpet section had not arrived yet, but give them timel Frenchy Racicot Cwho could be Sinatra's twin brotherj handled a vocal number and no more needs to be said. Ed Cleary and Bill De- Laurentis finished the entertainment with an old time song and dance routine, and then the meet- ing settled down to the business at hand. jack Moflitt was the leader of our gathering, and being a world famous artist, he had his staff of assistants along. He outlined a great plan of reorganization which called for the over- throw of the female regime. After assigning Andy Pechena to take care of the publicity, he dispatched his battery of secretaries to outline the forth coming campaign. Immediately Louise Fortuna, Alma DeChamps, Joyce Nylen, and Frances Mills rushed from the room. If you think that they were going to contribute to their own downfall, you are greatly mistaken. This Bobby Sock brigade telephoned the select- women and infomned them of our plans. Before Brother Moffitt could leave via the rear door, Jeanette Anthony and Doris Krewson were in our midst. Miss Anthony told us that the ten Fisher built Black Marias were lined up in the front driveway and it would be greatly ap- preciated if we would step outside. She didn't even bother to apologize to Joe Kiraly and Bill Lee, who were leading the discussion at the time of the outburst. Police Chief Marian Savage was ringing the bells on those feared contraptions, and the select- woman said, Gentlemen, you are the ones for whom the bells toll. That was enough for me. I persuaded Ted Kramer, a public ac- countant and an expert on figures, to give me a hot foot and before I knew it, I was two blocks from home with Sergeant Virginia Nelson and Patrolwoman Eleanor Johnson close behind. After losing them in a nearby alley, I took refuge in the cobwebbed garret of 'my wife's house. I hope that-the other fellows were as fortunate as I. Probably Joe Skultety and Dick Roberts escaped unscratched, but my guess is that Joe Grywalski, Don Gleacher, and Bob Garofalo will have to submit to the trial by jury. So what if they were out after curfew! They should have some rights. It is not pleasant to face a trial jury in this town. I can see the court- room now. Judge Irene Youhouse will instruct the jury to bring a decision of guilty. The jury is getting paid by the hour, so they will have to deliberate for at least two hours. Dot Wycinow- ske and Mary Morowski will argue about the sentence, while Genevive Van Wart will remind them that this is not being done right. Being a former WAVE she should know, but they won't listen to her. Adele Filanowski will stand before the judge and give the verdict of the jury. My thoughts were interrupted by a noise out- side the window. I saw that it was Nick Georgis, who was fleeing from the little woman. It seemed she was having some friends over for a late snack and Nick was to act as maid, butler, and cook. Everything had gone fine until he spilled a pot full of hot coffee over Fannie Rose and had dropped the sandwiches in Betty Remple's lap. I let him in and we were soon discussing the accident which had happened at Johnson's. Nick said the fellas wouldn't have a chance because a few of the women on the jury were Elizabeth Fabian, Muriel Kinkade, and Doris Tranberg. Only when the rose tipped fingers of the sunrise started to paint the eastern skies did Nick decide it was safe enough to leave. I then heard my wife bidding her charming guests adieu and thought that I would now be able to sleep in peace. Here, I was gravely mis- taken, for in flew Elizabeth Jackson and Lois Linley. They babbled the news that Clotilde Politi and Eleanor McCaffrey had slightly dented each other's helicopter and Elsie Rodek, the helicopter policeman, had given them tickets. All three ran out the door and I toddled my weary way to my room, thinking about the good old days at Roger Ludlowe High School when the fellows did the whistling at the girls andthe worst problem was our wondering when the next gas coupons would be- come valid. Those were truly the good old days.

Dietrich Coach FOOTBALL SCORES F airfield 0 Harding 12 Greenwic 7 Central 19 Milford 0 Norwalk 22 Stratford 14 Danbury 13 Bassick 87 54 h FOOTBALL Under the capable leadership of Captain Henry Recklet, the Orange and Black gridiron team compiled one of the best records in recent years. The team not only won the F.C.I.A.A. championship but also had an undefeated sea- son and climaxed its performances by defeating Bassick High 12-6 in the annual Thanksgiving Day Classic. In Alex Skultety, Fairfield has an all state selection to bear the brunt of its offense, and rarely did Alex fail to score when goal line terri- tory was reached. A strong defense headed by Captain Recklet, George Schumann, Leon Honcharich, and Charles Atherton gave the team a record that was tops in the state. Only three touchdowns were scored against the Ludlowe- men all year. The season opened with a tie against Warren Harding of Bridgeport, although the Ludloweites outplayed their most capable rivals by a wide margin and ended up on the two-yard line. The second game found the Millionaires of Greenwich bowing to the tune of 12-0 due to two splendid last quarter brokeniield runs by Louis Stopa. In a last minute thrilling pass from john Royak to John Benham, the Orange and Black tied another Bridgeport rival as Central and Ludlowe deadlocked 7-7. Milford was de- feated 19-0 due to some strong running by Ed Lobdell and Al Skultety. Our ancient rival, Stratford, next bowed to the might of Recklet and Company 22 - 0. Two thrilling laterals from Skultety and Dietrich, with Ed Lobdell on the receiving end, broke up a tight battle and enabled the Ludloweites to run roughshod over a previously undefeated Stratford aggregation. A fighting Norwalk eleven led by their all-state center, Dennis Calloghan, held off several Fair- field thrusts and enabled the Green and White to deadlock the Ludlowe attack. The following week Danbury was defeated in the Hatters' town by a score of 14-6. The climax game of the season with Bassick meant more this year because a victory would bring the league title home to Fairfield in addi- tion to the first undefeated season since 1930. The team spearheaded by Al Skultety and Ed Lobdell rose to the occasion and rolled over their traditional rivals to the tune of 13-6. Sterling defensive play by Ed Dietrich, Leon I-Ioncharich, George Schumann, and Johnny Benham checked a Bassick third period drive and assured vic- tory for the Orange and Black and a continued unblemished record for the annual series. Leon Honcharich was awarded the Fairfield Lions Club trophy as the outstanding player of the game. x First row, left to right: Mgr. E. Fishman, P. Homa, E. Lengyel, Capt. E. Dietrich, M. Pellett, W.

VARSITY BASKETBALL The 1943-44 Orange and Black basketball squad turned in a rather disappointing record, winning only six games while dropping nine. Fairfield started off nicely, although playing without the services of two of their starting five, namely, Ed Dietrich, and Pete Homa, the Tay- lormen defeated Staples of Westport 32-11. However, the following week, the Presidents of Harding traveled to Fairfield and handed the locals a 23 to 16 setback. In the third quarter, jaccouzzi and Farma succeeded in finding the range for four goals, but the Harding defense, featuring very close guarding, combined with a last quarter spurt, proved to be a little too much for the not yet polished Ludlowe five. At this point the squad began to show a de- finite improvement exemplifled in the showing against the rangy Hilltoppers of Central. Play- ing at the Central gym, Fairfield showed its best game of the season and wound up on the short end of a 31-30 count by virtue of a last second foul shot caged by Centra1's jim Mackie. Inspired by the performance, the team went on to defeat Danbury 27-18, and Norwalk 31-29, in two successive county A Conference games. Next the team traveled to Greenwich and dropped a heartbreaker to the Millionaires 37- 36, on a disputed field goal with 10 seconds left to play. VARSITY BASKETBALL Playing host to one of the strongest Bassick teams in many years, the Taylormen absorbed its worst beating of the season, 37-20. The fol- lowing week the Orange and Black took on Cen- tral in a return game and once again went down to defeat by a greatly superior Central team. Determined to avenge these defeats, Fairfield invaded the home court of the Stratford North Paraders and lost a tight battle, 28-25g but once more the Fairfield Eve broke into the victory column, this time at the expense of the Hatters from Danbury. Playing an unusually fine brand of ball, the Taylormen completely dominated the game and kept possession of the ball at least two thirds of the time. The following week a greatly improved Norwalk squad visited Fair- field and edged out the suburbanites 29-27 by the virtue of a single two pointer scored in the closing seconds. After this close defeat, the team moved into Milford where they played their best game of the year in trouncing Milford 53 to 39. Now hitting their stride, they were set to meet Green- wich in an important game which they won 36-29. The last game of the season with Bassick in which Bassick was favored because of their pre- vious win, ended in a 31-21 score in favor of Bassick. The high scorer for the season was Ed Dietrich with 101 points. Pat Farma was second with 63 and Ed Lengyel third with 59. Also outstanding on the offense was Pete Homa. Milt Pellett did well during the season along with Cut Jaccouzzi and Bill Sierup. On the defense, Ed Chervansky was easily classed as the most outstanding throughout the season. Because of the fact that a fifty per cent aver- age was not obtained, the Fairfield boys were not allowed to compete in the annual State Tourney in New Haven.

VARSITY BASEBALL The 1944 baseball team is expected to pro- vide many thrills for the fans during the coming season. Although Coach Taylor will have his problems in picking a starting lineup, it will probably be a team capable of ably representing Ludlowe, no matter the odds. Six veteran players will be back from last year to bolster the lineup. Much is expected from Leon Honcharich at first base. His batting will be felt by the opposing pitchers. Ed Dietrich will probably be at the catching spot, and his defensive game, along with his hitting, should make him an outstanding mask and mitt man. Backing him up will be Charlie Atherton, who showed much promise the year before. Cut Jacouzzi, with the experience of last year to help him, should play a bang-up game around second base. Pat Farma will most likely take the other position around the keystone sack. Ed Chervansky is again ready to bring his stand- out third base play to the front in the coming season. The most serious trouble to confront the team thus far is the outfield. Only Louis Stopa will be coming back from last year. John Royak's departure to the army leaves a big hole in center- field. The pitching looks fairly goodg although the team captain, Ed Lengyel, is the only starting pitcher from last year. Ernie Kovacs, who saw service in forty-three, will help carry the pitch- ing burden. Many new prospects will probably unfold themselves as the season progresses.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL Hordes of girls crowded the gym this year to compete in try-outs for becoming members of the honored varsity team. Miss O'Dwyer, watching for fine quality, superior ability, and good possibilities, chose the acting team. The lightning speed and ability of Dot DeVore and Connie Brevig helped f'Toots Bodnar to be high scorer with thirty-six points. The Junior Varisity proved to be an up-and- coming team made up of several underclassmen. These girls will, undoubtedly, be good material for next year's varsity, of which all the present members are seniors. The interclass basketball teams were also ac- tive and consisted of two junior teams, cap- tained by Doris Ecklund and Joyce Viebranz. The sophomore team was led by Pat Cartwright and the two freshman teams by Kitty Virgalla and Jean Radel. The interclass tournament was won by Joyce Viebranz's girls. 62 VARSITY TEAM Guards Janet Clarke Pudge Wilson Blondie Krewson Forwards Connie Brevig Dot DeVore Toots Bodnar JUNIOR VARSITY Guards Nancy Buchanan Frannie Hilton Dot Wycinowski Subs Thora Carr Nancy Braunfield Forwards Betty East Marie Roberts Pearl Pollack Barbara Butterfield Ann McGarry Trudy Mann Kathy DeWitt First row, left to right: F.

The girls of the Orange and Black proved their superior ability by winning all the games in which they competed. The powerful hits of Janet Clarke, the plough- ing through of Ann Huntington, and the skillful support of the whole team highlighted the games.

SWIMMING The mermaids of Ludlowe turned out in large numbers every Wednesday night at the West- port Y , The swimming hour is devoted to forty-five minutes of instructions on the art of diving, swimming, backstroke, paddling, etc., and fifteen minutes to play time. A swimming meet was held at Norwalk with girls from Westport, Norwalk, and Fairfield par- ticipating. Marjorie Bock, Ann McGarry, Dot DeVore, and Janet Clarke represented the Orange and Black. Ann McGarry demonstrated excellent talent and came out first in the back- stroke and was one of the best in diving per- formances. As usual, the girls invited their best beaux to the annual splash party. GIRLS' F CLUB First row, left to right: Miss O'Dwyer, D. Krewson, L. Bodnar, A. McGarry. J. Clarke, M. Wilson, D. DeVore, C.

Any girl, after receiving six hard earned points, auto- matically becomes a member. Initiations take place in the spring and are conducted in such a manner that no girl can easily forget them. Among their various activities, the girls spent the week-end of January 28-30 in New York. This trip proved eventful and very colorful Ckhaki and navyj for them. The highlights of entertainment were Fred Waring, Johnny Long's band, Hazel Scott, the play, Kiss and Tell, and Saturday night at the Havana Madrid Cafe. SWIMMING First row, left to right: L.

GIRLS' CLUB Because of their outstanding athletic ability, these ambitious girls have been awarded the highest honor that athletics in our school offer. They have, through four years of participation in the various sports, accumulated twenty points or more. This year, however, in place of the customary pullover sweaters, the girls received blazer cardigans. These, in addition to gold fox pins, and Fl certificates, were awarded at the annual Girls' Sports Banquet. 66 6 L 3 - El HI 45 I','Il .

BAND For thirteen years now, the Roger Ludlowe High School Band has been under the able di- rection of Fred W. Bayers, a man whose versa- tility with musical instruments is known through- out the state. Mr. Bayers organized the band in 1929, and under his leadership it has gradu- ally grown until this year it was composed of sixty-seven student musicians. Because of rationing and wartime shortages, the band was unable this year to play at any out-of-town football games, but they did furnish music for all games played here at Fairfield. Also, this year, the band led a Fourth of July Parade, which was revived for the first time in several years, and, following tradition, headed the Memorial Day parade. The band presented two assembly programs to the student body and also presented an excellent concert on April twenty-sixth. A few of the outstanding soloists were Ray Carlson on a triple tongue trombone solo, Ed Kish on the baritone, and a quartet composed of Joe Powers, solo trumpet, Art Leiss, trumpet, Bob Hitchcock, trombone, and Ed Kish, baritone. i 1 i First row, left to right: E.

Civkin, F. Grieger, T. Cochran. A CAPPELLA CHOIR This year the A Cappella Choir, composed of fifty-two carefully selected voices, was under the capable direction of Miss M. Irene Walter and was accompanied by Lora Civkin, Florence Greiger, and True Cochran. The choir was well balanced with seventeen first sopranos, fourteen altos, and twenty-one tenors and basses. Regu- lar rehearsals were called. The choir's first public appearance was at the Thanksgiving Assembly when it sang four num- bers of thanksgiving and prayer. This was fol- lowed by a very successful Christmas concert at which it sang the beautiful Childe Jesus cantata by Clokey. In February the choir pre- sented an assembly program honoring Stephen Collins Foster. In suitable costume, it sang some of his best loved works. The climax to the choir's successful year was the annual Spring Concert held in May. It included some of the 69 well known classics and also compositions in- spired by the present world situation. Because of war conditions, the customary presentation of musical awards following the Christmas concert was omittedg however awards were made at the close of the year. These were based on the quality of voice, attitude, and par- ticipation of the members. This year, as never before, some untrained vocalists were used as soloists. This was for the express purpose of giving them both the opportunity to show their talent and to benefit from the valuable experience gained by perform- ing before an audience. The year 1943-44 was for the A Cappella Choir a very successful oneg and it is hoped that succeeding years will be as successful and en- joyable. ' he ORCHESTRA First row, left to right: M.

This group, largely composed of freshmen and sopho- mores, forms the nucleus of the waiting list for admittance to the A Cappella Choir. This club met once a week after school. Directed by Miss M. Irene Walter and ac- companied by Beryl Pinckney and Patricia Pestalozzi. the glee club acquired, through diligent work, the ability to sing about twenty numbers and increased ability in sight reading and breath control. A small group assisted the A Cappella Choir at the Stephen Foster Concert in March by sing- ing a Negro selection in character. The First public appearance of the Glee Club was at the Spring Concert in May, in conjunction with the A Cappella Choir and the orchestra. The beauty of their voices was exceptionally well portrayed in Paris Angelicus by Franck and Where'er Ye Walk by Handel. This organization has shown great promise and its members will prove to be valuable addi- tions to the A Cappella Choir. 5. , P 3, 3' 2-it M 3 ,1- Fling-,' fin ', ffln: 9' c'W'm1AV'ix' f 4 i p 5.1 E Q Q.. . 1 an., 'Q 'ff . iQ!

SENIOR COUNCIL A rare event, perhaps never to happen again. occurred in june 1943 within the walls of Roger Ludlowe. The Senior Council of 1944 was tapped and thirteen seniors, contrary to the customary twelve, were the proud possessors of one of Roger Ludlowe's highest honors. Excited, overwhelmed, and trembling the seven girls and six boys tripped into Principal Swaflield's inner sanctum to elect advisers and officers. Miss Elizabeth McLaughlin and Coach Walter Hellmann were asked if they would su- pervise while David Bannatyne took over as Presidentg ably assisted by Robert Schulz, Vice- Presidentg and Bunny Nussenfeld, Secretary. The Council has been quite active in com- munity affairs as well as scholastic. When help was needed for the townwide three day scrap drive, so vital to the nation's war effort, the mem- bers offered their assistance and also recruited twenty others. Up hill and down dale they tramped on blustery mornings in search of paper or tin cans. The success was earned, and all profit was given to the American Legion. As for social affairs, two dances in the gym proved very successful and also have stepped up interest in the furthering of many more school activities. Many senior boys of the Class of 1944 have left to join Uncle Sam's armed services. To each of these, the council has sent a package, which included among other articles, a 1944 Fairheldiana. 74 i !

STUDENT CONGRESS Early in September the Student Congress, under the direction of Mr. Whittaker, held its organization meeting at which time the oiiicers, President, Shirley Wichtg Vice-President, Ed Lobdell, and Secretary, Beryl Pinckney, were elected for the year. This year the Congress was acting under its new constitution which provides for member- ship consisting of one representative from each room in addition to the Senior Council. Meet- ings were held on the last Wednesday of each month. And several meetings were held on call of the president. 75 Congress members are now stationed at key points in the halls during class time to aid vis- itors and to keep the halls clear of students who haven't permission to be there. Plans are being made to assist in supervising the playground during recess so that this may be enjoyed by the students during their lunch period. Many other worthwhile projects are being organized and sup- ported by the Student Congress. With the increased co-operation of the student body, the Congress is now looking forward to becoming a greater force in student life and student activity.

The Fathers' Club asked them to contribute a play for their annual show. This was quite an honor, as it had never been done before. Our contribution to the show was a riotous, one-act play called Silence, Please , starring four of last year's Thespians - True Cochran, Bunny Nussenfeld, Martha Lennon, and Howard Loewith. The beginning of the second semester was, perhaps, the most exciting time of the year for Komians. It was then that we began our prepa- rations for the spring play. The suspense that began with the difficult choice of a play was heightened by the tryouts for the various parts and continued until the selected few were an- nounced. The hnal cast included two old Thespians, Howard Loewith and David Banna- tyne. and eight new Komians and candidates for future Thespians--Justine Williams, Garcia Racicot, Charles Bartlett, Jack Moffitt, Arlene Baumrind, Marjorie Bock, Janet Drew, and Barbara Stewart. Then everyone settled down to the hard work that goes on behind the scenes of all successful plays. This play, Tiger House, was one of the most difficult ever attempted by the Komians, an eerie, creepy comedy with strange and un- usual characters and mysterious action. It was well received by everyone who saw it and pro- vided an evening of grand entertainment. The cast, stage crew. and all the Komians deserve congratulations for putting this play over so well: and our heartfelt thanks to Miss Kelly, without whom none of this would have been possible. The Koinian ofhcers this year are: President Barbara Butterfield Vice-President David Bannatyne Secretary Martha Lennon Treasurer Joyce Casey The seniors who have been Komians agree that some of their most pleasant memories will be their activities in this club. We hope that each year this organization will continue to grow because it is for some the first rung on the ladder leading to dramatic success. THESPIANS First row, lelt to right: True Cochran, M.

LIBRARY AIDES When the N.Y.A. was voted out of existence, our school library found itself without funds for a student assistant, so it was a case of the librarian taking to roller skates or yelling for help. Discretion and advancing years suggested trying the latter course, and the response was so generous that we finally took only seniors and juniors from the first-honors list. Each volun- teer has worked for a half-hour before or after school every day for a two week period, a serv- ice which has been most gratefully appreciated by the librarian. In addition to this group of Aides, we thank the girls who responded to an appeal for help when new books arrived. Marion S. Donaldson, Librarian THE FLOWER ARRANGEMENT CLUB The main aim and purpose of The Flower Club, which made its debut this year, is to in- terest the girls of the school in the artistic ar- rangement of flowers. We hope that it will be continued for a long while to come. The following officers were elected at the or- ganization meeting: President ..... , Dorothy Palsa Vice-President . . . . Margaret Lucas Secretary . , , . . . Jeanne Kruzshak Treasurer .. , ...,., Marian Forman To Miss Clare Durrast, our faculty adviser, whose guidance and interest have helped make our first year a very successful one, we are most grateful. At the meetings we arrange Howers in the simplest ways and with the simplest materials, in addition, two girls talk on different flower arrangements in other countries. We are keep- ing scrapbooks of pictures of flower arrange- ments, and at the end of the year, a prize' is given for the neatest and best looking scrapbook. A guest speaker who taught us how to make corsages was another interesting feature of our year's activities. We had also hoped to see the Flower Show in New York. This project, however, could not be carried out, since the show was cancelled, but we hope that we shall have the opportunity another year. LIBRARY AIDES First row, lelt to right: J. Sliney, F.

Many of the members and their friends contributed to the K-9 funds. For a small sum, one's dog be- comes a buck private, wearing on his collar a small pin. During the year an interesting talk was given by one of our faculty members, Mr. Durkee, whose subject was Pigeons. At another meeting, movies about the training of retrievers and pointers were shown. The officers for the year included the fol- lowing: President .... . . .Jack O'Connor Vice-President . . . ,.... Thomas Sullivan Treasurer .... . . ,Maitland McNamara Secretary . . . . . .Janet Craig THE COMMERCIAL CLUB This year the ever-popular Commercial Club, which'is now in its seventh year, opened its door to juniors, as well as seniors. Unfortunately, the paper shortage made it im- possible for us to publish our magazine, The Commercialitev, which has always been the main project of the club. In addition, because of war conditions we were not honored by guest speakers. Program committees, appointed at each meet- ing, were in charge of the various programs dur- ing the year. These included a short skit, What to Wear When Applying for a Position, and an interesting movie, Tricks of the Trade of Typ- ing. Last, but definitely not least, was our very successful annual party. The officers of the club are as follows: President .,,,.........

The remainder of the meeting consisted of reports on Modern Chemical Warfare. The March meeting was devoted to stunt chemical experi- ments. Because of prevailing war conditions, we were unable to visit any local factory, but we have in other ways increased our knowledge and prac- tical application of modern chemistry. Every member of the club participated actively in at least one meeting. ADVANCED GYM CLUB 'st row, lelt to right: G. Catendella, D eacher, J. Murray, J. Mclndoe, N. Neil- ., C. Atherton, P.

THE PAINT AND CLAY CLUBS This club was organized for the purpose of promoting the artistic interests and pleasures of those people who do not take a11: as a course. The Paint and Clay Club is divided into three groups, one being the craft group, which specializes in clay, wood-craving, textile designing, and leather work. The second division draws cartoons and collects them in folders. Last of all is the drawing group, which works in pencil, pastels, and water colors. The officers of this club include: President, Russell Adamsg Vice1President, Curtis Barker, Treasurer, Wilson Hawks, and Secretary, Melora Herold. Miss Ruth Judson is our faculty adviser.

THE JOLLY ROGERS - THE FAIRFIELD GIRLS, RESERVE The Girl Reserves, an international organiza- tion, is sponsored by the Young Wornen's Chris- tian Association. In October 1943 a group of junior and senior girls from Roger Ludlowe or- ganized the first Girl Reserve unit here and adopted the name Jolly Rogers. The club endorses the national girl reserve slogan- to face life squarely and the purpose- to find and 71 give the best. During the year our objective has been two- fold-social and service. In our first project we made Christmas favors for the soldiers who were hospitalized at Bradley Field. Some of our girls work at the Bridgeport hospitals, and some have worked at the local Red Cross. 94 On March 4 our club took an active part in the Mid-Winter Girl Reserve Conference held this year in Bridgeport and attended by girls from all parts of Connecticut and Massachusetts. The outstanding social affair of the season was the Easter Dance, April 15, sponsored by the club at the Y.W.C.A. in Bridgeport. The club is off to a good start, and we are all looking forward to another year of service. Any junior or senior girl who would like to work along with us is welcome.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS The Cercle Francais is organized by the pupils of French II in order to enjoy the lighter side of French, which is missed in the classroom. We play French games and try to speak French most of the time.

The branches vary-from the Cadet Nurse Corps to the Ferry Command. From Pearl Harbor on, Fairfield girls, along with thousands of other girls, have enlisted in the service in which they can do the MOST for victory. And so today, wherever an American boy is fighting, an American girl is there to back him up. Fairfield girls are on all fronts-nursing the wounded, releasing men for active dutv, and even flying planes. Where there is work to be done, some girl-perhaps once a carefree Roger Ludlowe student-does it. ry That the woman's place is in the home is indeed obsolete. Women have established a laudable reputation for themselves in the world at large. Will-c there be a world of tomorrow for these women? We, here at home, can assure post-war security for our girls in the service-simply by participating zealously in the community war effort. Do it for them. They Are Roger Ludlowe Girls. They Are A Your Girls. This Page, Dedicated To Roger Ludlowe Girls in Service, ls Made Possible Through The Cooperation Of The Fol- lowing Fairfield Business Firms - - - H. P. FINGELLY . . . L. B.

Every rivet brings that cargo ship or huge destroyer nearer and nearer to completion and to the time when it can set forth on the task for which it is destined. Every seed, which the farmer sows in the earth, bears fruit which will eventually feed someone. In themselves, they're unimportant, these home front battles, but taken collectively, they constitute the onward march of America. Take thousands and thousands of riveters working daily, and soon you will have a ship, soon a Heet. Take thousands and thousands of farmers toiling in the fields, and soon you will have abundant crops, enough to feed our fighters on the battle fronts and those on the home front. United, fighting and working for a common cause, Americans are unbeatable. Stick To Your Job And Count Every Day As A Battle Won On The Home Front.

From the halls of Roger Ludlowe they've gone to countless far-flung corners of the earth to fight your war, to fight for all that which stands for democracy and freedom-for all of us. Whether it be a disease-ridden jungle island, frozen shores of Attu or scorching sands of Africa-there you will find our boys. Whatever they are now-soldiers, sailors, marines--just a few short months ago they were typical high school boys of this town and this school. All that remain now are memories, made more vivid by a blue, too often, a gold star upon a white Hag. Do we keep faith if we fail to show our boys of Roger Ludlows that we have forgotten them? Suppress the thoughtl We will never permit their sacrifices to go unappreciated. That's the Fairfield way of keeping faith in Fairfield boys.

It's Still Useful Whatever it is . . . make it dol Restyle it if you have to, even give it away for someone else to use . . . but . . . never, never throw it away. Old papers, scrapped metals, useless rubber, grease from your cook stove . . . each of these is a much required ingredient of victory for allied arms, in the days ahead. Your cooperation, therefore, is a direct con- tribution to making this world a better place in which to live. Waste not . . . want not for ultimate victory! American homes have made available millions of tons of waste mate- rial, seemingly without value, which . . . when reworked . . . is now playing a vital part in crowding back the enemy on all fronts. Fairfield homes meet the crisis. A good job well started and, most certainly, one worth the wholehearted consideration and cooperation of every local household. Waste, Over Here, Can Mean . .

Don't think that your part must be large-way beyond your means: the government doesn't expect that. It asks you to faithfully invest in War Stamps, and bit by bit, you can get that bond. Think as you make your purchaseg these stamps may furnish some American soldier with desperately needed last rounds of ammunition. Consider it more than your duty-rather your privilege as Americans -to be able to invest in the post-war security of your nation. Be thankful that this is one of the few countries in which you still have the freedom to purchase what you wish.

MARKET 104 Blood Banks Save Human Lives One of the most revolutionary ideas to emerge from the present con- Hict is the Red Cross Blood Bank. Mobile units travel throughout the country campaigning for blood donors. The process of blood donation is quick, easy, and non-injurious to health. The blood which you give is bottled and sent as only one unit of plasma, and it takes at least eight units to save a wounded man's life. Each pint of blood is precious and every drop counts. We are all depending upon our fighting men to save our lives, let them depend upon us to save theirs. Let them feel assured that through the Red Cross Blood Bank we are beside them on all battle fronts. By donating to the Blood Bank, you are directly saving some man's life, it may be the life of someone dear to you. Visit A Blood Bank Today. Your Thoughffulness Can Save A Soldier's Life.

In these critical times the Red Cross is desperately required wherever American boys are stationed. The Red Cross is at the side of the fighting man Wherever he may be-on all fronts. The Red Cross box signifies to American prisoners-of-war that they are not forgotten by the folks back home. Red Cross Home Service Cen- ters serve as a link between our fighting men and home. Red Cross Reha- bilitation Centers put a wounded or maimed service man back on his feet. These are but a few of the inspiring works of this great organization. The Red Cross will continue its services on all fronts-but only with your aid. Any small thing you can do or contribute will make easier the task of a fighting American. THERE IS NO WORTHIER CAUSE.

Tonight Are you one of those people who would like to write letters to me in the armed forces but just don't know what to say? If you are, it's about time you shed your inferiority complex. Writing letters requires no particular skill, nor does it require eltort on your part. Write directly and simply. Avoid depressing and morbid news. Write in a light manner. Above all, be natural. Things are happening every second all around you. Insignificant things, perhaps to you, mean so much to someone far away from home. Tell that someone in the Army, Navy, or Marines about what's taking place in Fairheld. Such news will often bring a taste of home to some far-flung corner of the earth.

The Chest is financed by the volun- tary subscriptions of citizens. It functions cooperatively with the local chapters of the Red Cross, Family Welfare Society, Visiting Nurse Asso- ciation, and Emergency Relief Fund. In less prosperous times than these, the Chest aids needy families. In pre-war days it fed, clothed, doctored, and gave help to hundreds of Fairfield inhabitants. The Community Chest also aids the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., hospitals, and other institutions. The Chest also utilizes a certain portion of its funds for town uplift. Today the Community Chest is the nucleus of home front morale. It is a pillar of democracy. GIVE IT YOUR WHOLEHEARTED SUPPORT.

Imagine yourself tramping miles and miles through ankle-deep mud and vine-tangled jungle paths! Imagine doing this for three, four, or even five years! Imagine, then, the end of the war. Would you enjoy coming back home only to tramp miles and miles farther-in search of a job? I Every- where you turn it's always the same-- Sorry, no work. VVhen you went away, they promised you a job upon your return. Then, chances were ten to one against your return. You did come back though. Several thousand local boys and girls will someday require rehabilitation. You wouldn't want this to happen to you or to your song so don't let it happen to your neighbor or his son.

In keeping with the spirit of the times . . . we have taken a daring departure from the orthodox. This yearbook, it will be noted, reflects the total disappearance of advertising display space, so prevalent in the past. This has been pur- posely accomplished through the cooperation of merchants, manufacturers, and others-friends of the Roger Ludlowe student body--who have felt that this year of all years, the space that they have usually maintained for themselves might be better utilized in institutional copy to assist the Red Cross, The Blood Bank, to sell more bonds, or to help win the battles on the home front. Those who have so unselfishly set aside the opportunity to help them- selves and who prefer to place their advertising dollars at work, instead, in the all-out war effort, herein displayed, are truly Worthy of highest Commendation. It is good to know such business people and individuals. They repre- sent the true American traits of modern day patriots. lt's just another way of Ushouldering a gun on the home front.
