ENSIGN ARTHUR A. NATELLA, U. S. N MR RICHARDS - Out 7iu'end it is very difficult to express in words the affection and regard of every member of this class toward our respected principal and friend, Mit. Henry S. Richards. In every contact we have had with this Fine gentleman throughout our years at Roosevelt, he has been in all ways as considerate, kindly, helping and understanding as any person could be. Wlien we misstepped, his Hrm patience never failed to return any of us to the proper attitude, and when we made an earnest step forward, no one could ever have given us more encouragement. Nir. Richardys desire to start all of us on the right road before we pass from his guidance makes his friendship one which we cherish most highly. Dorothy A. Andrews, Marion Bernholz, Cecil W.

Frazier, Anne Fry. This was the year in which Mr. Natella joined the Navy. The event was an immense hit of news and Provided us with conversation material for weeks. Miss Viola, who replaced him. after having observed us closely for six months, says that she still thinks Roosevelt boys and girls are grandf, Congratulations were extended this year to Miss Tucker, who became Mrs. Carl Stucklen, and to Mrs. Dievenkorn, who is now Mrs. Hershe. The date for Miss Schallis wedding has been set for Iuly l. During the courtship, Miss Schall traveled 7,000 miles by Plane, which appears to be a record of some kind. Xi V X i iv , fx , Helen C.

Mrs. Vxfarner, an addition to our faculty this year, considers herself a substitute in lVIrs. Steiner's place. She returns to Waco, Texas, each summer. Although far from her native state, she has comfort in having her son, who is an engineer in New York, nearby. Extra-curricular activities have kept a large Part of our faculty busily engaged during this year. lWrs. f J CD I . D ' MX CAMERA SHY FACULTY Peter C.

Miss Mem-llc Crosby has been taking a course in Cartography- mapmaking, to the freshmen-on Saturdays in New York. Mr. Posey spends his spare time doing work on convoy vessels in the Hudson River. The summer vacation will find Mrs. Russell and her daughter at Sag Harbor, Mr. Boodey in New I-Iampf shire, Miss lX4cCaffrey at Peach Lake in Westcliestei', Miss Flavin in Mas- sachusetts, Miss Cleverdon in Ottawa. Canada, Miss Ritchie in Vermont. and Mr, Van Anden doing 'ianyf thing that comes along -apparently one of the fundamentals of the Van Anden philosophy. Mr. Flowers will be busy in a defense factory, and will have no time for sailing boats as he has done in the past-except in the bathtub. Gardening seems to be a favorite summer pastime with our teachers. We all know about Mr. Van Andenis roses, but did you know that Nir. Loudon grows watermelons, which he and other male members of the fac- ulty dine on during lunch periods? Miss Fry will do her gardening in Virginia. Mrs. VValter,s victory gar- den has thus far produced two daffo- dils and two crocusesl Her five-yeaiv old daughter, Linda, provides unusual incidents in the household. Nlr. Smith intends to spend his vacation on his parents' farm, milk- ing cows, feeding chickens, pulling weeds, and trying his level best to forget trigonometry students. It's been a difficult year, and we'd like to congratulate our faculty on coming through, as always, with a fine jobl 5 if ,B MS Hi 9 l f Pia l CLASSES , Q I A X X nf ,., 'f, mx o 4+ v gp, an EQ E ICQ ' HZHVIA , -, I!

MAKING A LONG STORY SHORT Looking back after four years, we can laugh at our many fears and problems when we entered Roosevelt. But it wasnlt funny in the fall of l94O. We were slightly comforted to learn that we were not the only newcomers, as Mrs, Faiella, Miss I-lavey and Miss Schall were strangers too, and Mr. Boodey had just re- turned from Honolulu. We soon discovered that the upper- classmen had wild imaginations, for there was much talk of ten- nis courts to be completed in the spring. ln the fall we heard Miss Lorraine Foster interpret the songs of her famous relative, Stephen, and witnessed our Hrst school play, 'KGuess Againfl Our football team won two, lost two, and tied two games, while the hockey team won its third championship title. Then in our class elections Lou Charnley and lane Thomas became president and vice-president. At midterm Miss Dignan and Mrs. Walter became science teachers and Mrs. Galda took on the job of teaching gym. In the spring we formed part of the appreciative audience at L'Young April. To end our first year the faculty starred in the hilarious Riotous Reviewf, When we returned to school in the fall Miss Flavin and Mr. Rodner had joined the faculty. We went to the football games and found Nan Iennings representing us on the cheering squad. Also in the fall Wig and Whiskers presented One Mad Night, in which Lou Charnley had a part. At this time the girls started playing field hockey, and Miss Mailer' became Mrs. Ricci. NW Rm Winter was a busy time because a Variety Show was put on, lvir, Sloan demonstrated the marvels of liquid air, and the Crim- son hockey squad captured its fourth consecutive title. In the spring Ioanne McCoy and Louis Charnley played in 'KSeven- teenfi During the later part of the year we spent our time on our hands and knees, practicing for the Physical Fitness Demonstra- tion. VVe began our Iunior year proudly because of the fact that we were nearing the status of Sophisticated Seniors. Soon after our return, a Commando Course for the boys of R.l-l.S. was com- pleted. and Miss Mihalak became lWrs. McCurdy. The new grandstands were dedicated at the Gorton game, and Wig and VVhiskers produced NMurder in Rehearsal. We made good use of the practice rink, and our Track team was well represented by Ken Kelly and Sutton Titus. The Crimson Echo was awarded second place by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, and had a successful year with the aid of Pat Shinn and Kristin Gustavsen. We elected our G.O. officers: Bruce Baldwin, presi- dentg Walter Wagner, vice-presidentg and lane Thomas, secre- tary. The curtain fell on our third year at Roosevelt with the comedy hit, :Spring Feverf' As high and mighty Seniors, we returned to school in Sep- tember. Miss Andrews, Mr. Dehleo, Mr. Posey, Mrs. Warner, Miss Siegel, Mrs. Reagan and Coach Seidell became members of the faculty. We were proud to learn that the Crimson Echo. under the editorship of Pat Shinn, had won a first place rating in the Quill and Scroll, and that more than a thousand G.O.!s had been sold. We soon elected Ted Brockmeier, Rosemary Hayes, Peggy Thomas and Allan Frew as class officers, and Walt VVagner as yearbook editor. Bob Barclay, Rosemary Hayes and Iohn O'Leary starred in And Came the Springfy while Ken Kelly paced our track team in a good season. Our faculty adviser on the yearbook, Mr. Natella, joined the Navy and Miss Van Deusen took over. Miss Viola, Mrs. Guarino and Mrs. MacCurdy joined the faculty. Miss Del Bene and Mrs. Dievenkorn were married, the former leaving school to be with her soldier husband. At midyear we learned that the Skull and Key had fifty-seven members. who chose Guy Montone, Peggy Thomas, Anne Rosar and Bob Hock as their officers. E. Stanley Iones gave an interesting talk on his missionary work and-wonder of wonders -the cafeteria was decorated. We ended our last year with the gay comedy, You Can't Take It With Youf! in which the Seniors were represented by Bob Barclay and I-lansi Gattegno. Besides these actual facts, l am sure we shall all remember the halls just before vacation, the visiting armadillo, Mr. Richards in search of the missing word for his crossword Puzzle, the confusion when yearbooks are given out, and the words of Theodore Roosevelt inscribed over the front door: lt is character that counts whether in a nation or in a man.

H-5 fb :Qu b y ' Q 0 A GUESS OR THREE It has been a very bleak and tiring day, this March 23, 1954, and Mr. Henry S. Richards is delighted to get home and enjoy a little peace for a change, at least until tomorrow morning. Evidently the 'Lthree shiftersw of old R.H.S. are still giving our beloved principal a good workout. Witll a sigh and a shake of his head, Mr. Richards drops into his favorite chair, picks up the cur1'ent issue of PUTURAMA and with a start notices the picture on the cover. Could it be? Why yes, itis Ginny Lyons, famed model of the Bjork-Frew Model Agency. Reluctantly turning the page, Mr. Richards notes that the successful editors of this magazine are none other than lim Miller and assistant Patricia Shinn. It is not surprising to see that the artistic and unusual illustrations are by Gaetano Montone, artist of nation- wide repute. On turning the pages, Mr. Richards finds that it was announced by Nancy Iennings, head cashier at the Paramount,,' that Maestro Bruce Baldwin and his nineteen-piece band broke all box office records there last week. The sensational drumming of Colin Kidd received a terrihc ovation, while other pictures showed Mary lean Stewart and Russ Kantor taking their bows after driving the crowd wild with their heart-warming rendition of 'iMairzy Doatsf' What was this on the next page? It is now oiiticially revealed that the man who recently proved Einstein's theory wrong was Professor Robert Barclay, brilliant mathematician, aided and abetted by Professor Francis Collins, The incident was given great publicity by Homer King, news commentator, and Vlfalter Vlfagner, editor of the KlWoi'ld Telegram. Bursting with pride, Mr. Richards went on to a page dedicated to the swank Governoifs Ball held in honor of Governor Albert E. Tait at the Hotel Rentaroom, operated by Iohn Allerton and Williani Kay. Guests at the gala affair included Valentine Becker, president of 'Becker Baseball Bats and Companyug Richard Sarno, star pitcher for the New York Yankees, Dorothy Kane, Morgenthaus personal aideg and Pat Cooper, owner and head of the largest interior decorating studio on Fifth Avenue. Helene Collins and Corinne Capone, hostesses, were snapped greeting Senators Allen Benjamin and Robert Qfferman and Repre- sentatives Ted Taylor and Glenn Holzbach. Master of ceremonies Tom Patterson was seen announcing the arrival of socialities Audrey Stammel, Mary Compton and Irene Steltzer. Other interesting guests who enjoyed the Governorls Ball were Kris Gustavsen, Iohn O,Leary, Leon Marrano and hluriel McVicker, who are all members of the Broadway Theatre Guild. A grin of satisfaction came over the face of Mr. Richards as he eyed the following pages. They contained photos by Curtis Reed of the recent Academy Award dinner, accompanied by a stirring account of the proceedings by the famous Hollywood columnist, Dorothy Purdy. There was absolutely no doubt in the mind of anyone as to the winners of the Oscars. Of course, they went to the vivacious little actress, lane Thomas, and her leading man, Dave Reynolds, for their acting in the outstanding picture of the year, Come With the Calm. Honors were also shared by Terry Ball and Lyn Berbert as the best supporting actress and actor. This remarkable picture was directed by Vincent Messina and produced by the vet- eran Ted Brockmeier. The story was based on the novel of the same name by Pauline Terzis. The sports section of FUTURAMA was dedicated to the most promising track stars for the spring. The two top-rate runners are the same as they were ten years ago in high school. They are, of course, Sutton Titus and Kendrick Kelly. In about the center of the magazine could be seen the pictures of the week. In these were included the home coming of Ramon Hernandez, daring adventurer and explorer, who was greeted by the Mayor of New York City, Iames Van Bramer, and head of the New York State Department of Agriculture, Bill Hague, who was presenting his odorless onion to the National Farm Board. FUTURAMA'S Tops-in-Towni' included Peter West's dancing on the Music Hall stage, the basketball playing of Gordon Lyons, who made thirty-six baskets in his last gameg Dr. Charles Kougasian's discovery of vitamin K.O., with the assistance of Nurse Doris Brown, at the City Hospital. In this article the new play of Iulie Hanigan, the famous play- wright, was given much praise. The next article to claim Mr. Richards' attention was an account of the inauguration of week-end excursion plane service from New York to Paris, sponsored by Appell 81 Schulman Airways. A photograph showed Pilot Bob Sumell, Co-pilot Ken Robinson and Stewardess Audrey Cotter standing with the passengers beside the plane, The Spirit of Funf' These included Mayor Robert Hock of Yonkers, Police Commissioner Steve Nusbaum of Tuckahoe, Paris representative of Life,y' Mary lean Fleming, General Ann Rosar of the Salvation Army, Eddie Adams, celebrated photographer of ulungle Life, and Gail Robinson and Babette Muller, co-founders of New York's well-known beauty establishment, Charm, Limited. Finally, turning to the next page, Mr. Richards found Iohn Dreisacker's write-up and pictures on UFUTURAMA Goes Backstage, which included candid shots taken at the opening night of Mary Knesnik's Broadway Musical, which has been running five successful years. In the chorus are to be seen the former Roosevelt students Marie Mathews, Rosemary Hayes, Claire McAndrews, Dorothy Iay and Rosalie Thorne. Each girl wears a corsage contributed by Alan Dunphy, florist. Adding last minute touches to their make-up before the curtain goes up are Shirley Coles, comedienne, Sarah Burwell, blues singerg and Pearl Futterman, star of the show. It was now nearly time for supper and Mr. Richards leafed through the remaining pages somewhat hurriedly, pausing only a moment when he saw lean Campbell's flashing smile on the back cover with the caption, Have You That Ipana Smile, Too?', He put the magazine aside thoughtfully, for it had been pleasant to learn of the successes and adventures of one-time Rooseveltians. In spite of their pranks and truancy and occasional low marks, they had done very well for themselves. This copy of FUTURAMA,', reflected Mr. Richards, has certainly given me my moneyis worth. f X 2 ,W ' fx f ,.:,,V A A Af i iii Z X 1 f ' A n a f ltit l 4 - N if Q be .. .A1, 1 ,.-.,1 . .s s : I A air TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT We, the class of I944, glowing with happiness, overwhelmed with anxiety for the future, and loving life in general, feel it our privilege and duty to bestow upon future classes our blessings and last will and testament as follows: TO MRS.

The brunette Lois Fitzpatrick and Paul Christon were chosen as the DIOSIZ Popular in the class Poll, while the blonde Lois Fitzpatrick and Bill Thompson were picked as the best looking. Iune Olson and Bruce Stowe won first Place for their scholastic :tbilitiesg Nfarjorie Bahr and Clifford Heaslip were rated the class cut-ups.

The library was run smoothly with Florence Cave, Ann Carroll Ronan, Nlarguerite Russo and Ianice Nfariner as the staFf of assistants. Elaine Vvinderling, Barbara VVeil, Ianice Beals and Irwin Smalheiser are preparing to carry on for the ECHO in their senior year. VVith a start such as this, the class of '45 is bound to be one of the best senior classes in Roosevelt's history.

Ieanne Oehrlein and Iohn Rath were again chosen as the best looking, and it was decided that Marianne Spackman and Carl- ton Rhodes were the clowns of the class. The sophomores outdid themselves in the field of athletics. Bob Thomas, Iimmy Houston and Walter Kennedy were on the Iayvee basketball team, and Henry Wyman and Bob Thomas were recognized on the football team. The class was also well represented in the choir, art club and after-school sports. In the brain section everyone thought that Ursula Orth and Fred Bailey ranked first, although many other sophomores were happy to find that through their hard work their names appeared on the Honor Roll many times. Although there were no elections for class officers, Iean Shep- herd and Dick Young were voted the most popular in the class poll. The social activities were led by Phil West, Vera Nelson, Larry Birdsall, Doris Keane and Wally Beatty. ln every activity they entered, the sophomores displayed co- operation, enthusiasm and great school spirit. They show a prom- ising future and have indeed earned the title of upperclassmen. X f' fJl'l, 1 ! k I LZJQ4' 07'1?'fAf1C2fw. ' VQMMJCY EVEN TUALLY Like others before them the freshman class entered Roosevelt with a feeling of bewilderment. At the beginning of the year when they were hopelessly lost in the halls of R.H.S., the seniors were always ready to lend them a helping hand. There might have been a few who liked to confuse them, but the freshmen proved to be good sports and took the pranks in their stride. After overcoming their shyness and becoming more sure of themselves, they were determined to make their presence known. They did this by participating in the school and social activities. Outstanding among the students are Ioan Reynolds and Iesse Houston, the most popularg Connie Stark and Louis Schulze, the best looking, Mary Greenawalt and Arthur Merritt, the most studiousg and Carla Grissmann and Richard Fellows, the class clowns. The social activities of the frosh were led by Iimmy Iohnson, Phyllis Moran, Kevin Fitzpatrick, Ioyce Grilfin, 'Itchy' Graham and Dolores Fedio. Altogether, they have spent a busy and active year, and are looking forward to the remaining three years.

The staff was determined to make L'ENVOI 1944 a model for years to come and a prized posses- sion of all class members. Nlr. Arthur Nate-lla was at first presented with the dubiously distinctive title of IJENVOI faculty adviser, but after a very few weeks he left us to serve his country in the Navy. Miss Van Deusen graciously accepted the wreath of thorns and has clone a fine job, for which our class is greatly indebted. ln an election early in the year, the seniors chose Vx7alter Vxfagner to serve as editor-in-chief, and with this initial bit of organization the work soon began. lane Thomas very capably headed the literary staff, composed of seniors who spent hours pouring over the mass of written material necessary. Peggy Thomas was outstanding in her service as a staff member. Leon Niarrano was in charge of sports cover- age for the year, and the manuscripts were whipped into shape for the printer by chief stenographer Nlarguerite Freitag. Photography, which brings life to any yearbook, was gathered by Vincent Messiiia, well supported by candid Photographers Peter Barlow, Ed Adams, Curtis Reed and Bob Sumell. lim Miller' and his advertising staff combed the city and came up with an unprecedented sum for advertising, and circulation of IJENVOI reached its quota only because of the great job done by the 'ipeddlersf' Remember how Tom Patterson loved to count his daily take in the halls? Pauline Terzis very competently handled the finances as busif ness manager. The innumerable sketches which add so much this year repre- sent the talent and skill of Gaetano Nlontone. Nlany of his very artistic ideas are reHected throughout the book, and the cover is an original design of his. Most of the all-around balance of IQENVOI is due to Guys skillful touch. The thinner Paper of the yearbook is one of the unavoidable disappointments of these war times. The staff has tried to balance this lowering in standards by making the contents of the book as enjoyable to all as possible. Nlore space was assigned to under- classmen, and we feel that everyone will enjoy the comic sketches. the chief innovation of the year. Since sports are so popular at this time, they were chosen as our theme for the year. and carried through wherever possible. All members of the staff can feel justly Proud of L'ENVOI this year, as they worked long and hard to produce this final product. VVe proudly present it to our class. FINANCIER Last September marked the beginning of the most successful year that the General Organization has had. 1,081 G.0.,s were sold, the most in this organizationis history. This increase in subscribers resulted from the G.O. assembly, at which the many clubs were symbolized, thereby giving the newer students an idea of the activities supported by the G.0. Three officers, elected by the study body, head the G.0. Council: Bruce Baldwin, presidentg XValter Vlfagner, vice-presi- dentg and lane Thomas, secretary. A representative selected by each club, and two faculty advisers appointed by Mr. Richards, complete the council, It is to this body that the clubs submit their budgets for approval. Besides promoting boys, football, basketball, cross country and track and the girls' outside activities, the organization maintains the ice skating rink for the beneht of the entire student body and purchases letters for the various activities. The CLC. has been putting 3535 aside each year for the pur- pose of erecting a permanent plaque in memory of those former students who have lost their lives in this world conflict.

The Crimson Echo's excellent financial status was maintained through the efforts of Iune Nlortlock. circulation manager. and Elaine VVinderling, advertising manager. L CKY O T REGENT The Senior honorary society is under the supervision of Mr. Richards. Nlembership is extended to those who have maintained a Regents average of eighty-seven per cent. This year fifty-seven Seniors were eligible for this society. The calibre of the students belonging to this respected body was manifested when at the first meeting the members, after a talk by M1'. Richards, elected officers as follows: Gaetano Montone, presidentg Peggy Thomas, vice-presidentg Anne Rosar, secretaryg and Bob I-lock, treasurer. At the second meeting of Skull and Key, plans were made and accepted unanimously for the purchase of pins to be worn by members. Nlembership in this traditional organization for Senior honor students is an achievement which every underclassman will hope to attain in his last year at Roosevelt. ,Aa 4 I4 WIR L TD INIMER FROH!

During the course of the year the members have studiedand given talks on Roman life and mythology. Gaudeamus lgiturf' a famous student song of the Middle Ages, was memorized and sung at club meetings. On April 21 the club put on a special program to commemorate the anniversary of the founding of Rome. Since the usual Saturnalia celebration was canceled when the Christmas holiday was unexpectedly lengthened, a later party was given. This year the club assumed the responsibility of col- lecting and compiling the names of former Roosevelt students now in the service. These have been added from time to time to our Honor Roll. in May, many of the members attended the Russian Ballet's Production of 'AI-Ielen of Troyn at the Nietropolitan Opera House as a final activity of the year. PARLEZ-YOU FRAHCAIS? France may be under Hitler but its spirit exists in the meetf ings held each second hlonday afternoon bv the members of the French Club, sponsored by Nlrs, Phelon. The ten regular members of this club chose Iacques NVallach as le president, and Corinne Capone as la secretaire. At every meeting. the students traveled in imagination with the Free French soldier from North Africa to Corsica and Italy, and wherever he rights by the side of other men of the United Natiotms. ln this way they were able to link various parts of the French Empire with their past history. Variation was given to this program when French games and songs were included in the meetings, The singing of La Ivlarseillaisei' and mlnhe Star Spangled Banner in French was an important part of each gathf ering. The Christmas party. planned for December 20, was postponed until after the holidays as a result of the early suspension of school. The purpose of the French Club is to learn to speak French fluently and to inspire interest and love for France, Students who delight in fencing orally with the language and who are inclined to be linguists rind great pleasure in la conversation.

Q OUTH OF THE BORDER The Pan-American Club, whose purpose is to achieve a better understanding of our neighbors to the south and their problems in regard to the United States, chose the following officers this year: Rosemary Hayes, presidentg Ted Brockmeier, vice-presidentg Pauline Terzis, head of the program committeeg Vincent Mes- sina, G.O. representative, Pauline Terzis, G.O. alternate. Under the capable supervision of M1's. VValter, the Pan- American Club functioned very successfully this year. Many of the members attended Spanish theaters, broadcasts, and places of interest relating to Spain and South America. Some of the club's programs consisted of debates and discus- sions, in Spanish and English, concerning various Pan-American problems. Speeches, book reports and short skits helped add a bit more enjoyment to the club meetings. The students also exchanged letters with people from Mexico and South America. The club, which met every other Tuesday, had a membership total of over forty students, all of whom contributed greatly to its success. Such an organization as the Pan-American Club is indeed an important factor in making high school students conscious of the importance of good P2l1l'All1Cl'iC2lll relations in order to pro- mote better world conditions.

The purpose of the club is to acquaint its members with the vast field of music for female voices, and to enjoy doing the lighter type of music which is not available for a mixed choir. The Hfty-three club members, who met three times a week, did a commendable job of presenting some musical programs in assembly. ln their repertoire are the following songs: K'Waltz of the Flowersfy by Tschaikowskyg Rowing in the Sunlightfy a Mexican folk song, uBegin the Beguinefi by Cole Porterg ln a Persian lvlarketf' by Ketelbyg 'KWate1's Ripple and Flowfl a Czecho-Slovakian folk song, O Divine Redeemerf' by Gounodg and Calm As the Night, by Bohm. The melodious voices of the girls' choir have brought much enjoyment to Roosevelt students on many occasions throughout the year. Jr X is A ,fr li,-ff'e P I y X A CAPPELLA CHOIR The A Cappella Choir of Roosevelt I-Iigh School has presented many excellent musical programs this year under the capable supervision of Miss Andrews. The choir sang carols in the main corridors during Christmas week, in addition to singing at the U.S.O. and presenting some musical selections for the P.T.A. and the regular school assemblies. Of course, the A Cappella tradition of singing at Commencement was carried out. Of the sixty choir members, the following students were elect- ed as officers: Kenneth Robinson, presidentg Ioyce Leeds, secre- taryg Clifford I-Ieaslip, treasurerg Dorothy Rangni't and Winches- ter Clark, librariansg Mary Knesnik, C.O. representativeg and George Pojer, student conductor. The club had the following repertoire of songs: In My Gar- den, by Firestoneg Sympathy,H by Frimlg Carmencita,y' a Mexican folk songg K'-fhe Rosary, by Neving My Dream Is of an Island Placef, by Caing Italian Street Songf, by I-Ierbertg Ave Mariafy by Schubertg usmoke Gets in Your Eyesfl by Kerng i'Recessional, by DeKoveng Beautiful Dreamerf, by Fos- terg and Night and Dayf, by Cole Porter. The individual members of the A Cappella Choir have given indication of a very promising career in music. Q gut, X if N CN a - L- 1 N X 1 X 2 y J Q ' ff lx All ' + ki!

It performed at a P.T.A. function, assem- blies, plays, and the Commencement exercises, the Roosevelt String Ensemble performed for the nurses at the Yonkers General Hospital last winter. George Pojer is concert-master and Violet Neuberth is concert-mistress of the orchestra and string ensemble. The members of the orchestra elected George Pojer, president, Edwin Lieberthal, vice-president, Patricia Cronin, secretary, Elinor Korn, treasurer, and Frederick Manimen and Irwin Rosin, librarians. The string ensemble consists of George Pojer, Violet Neuberth, Patricia Cronin, Elinor Korn, Vincent Manzi, Ernestine Barton, Millicent Long, Marjorie Newton, Louise Vellane, Carolyn Abbott and George Ellis. This year the orchestra has been rehearsing only twice a week. with a weekly sectional rehearsal. lts repertoire for this season includes The Emperor Waltz, by Straussg Theme from the Piano Concertof' by Tschaikowskyg and The Sailor's Horn- .

Unlike the 194241943 club, which produced two light comedies, they turned out one comedy, besides the well-known more serious Production, K'You Can't Take It Witli You, both of the plays being very successful, The year's first presentation, 'lAnd Came the Spring, was alf ready in rehearsal when members assembled to organize officially on October 19. Thus it is not surprising that four stars of that play were chosen as officers: Robert Barclay, presidentg Bill Ryan, vice-president, Mai'y lVIcQuillan, secretaryg and Bob Saul, business manager. And Crme the Springl' was a success, artistic as well as financial. Heading the cast were: Cliff Heaslip, our comedy star, in the role of Buzz Lindsayg Pat Nlara as Nlidge I-Iartmang Iean Storms as her elder sister. Virginiag Iohn O'l.eaty as their cul- tured brother, Elliottg and Rosemary Hayes and Robert Barclay as Mania and Papa. Makirig the IHOSE of slightly smaller Parts ' f r y .

Rehearsal for Kaufman and Hart's famous serious comedy, NYou Can't Take It With You, began in lvlarch. The cast in- cluded: Hansi Gattegno as Penelope Sycamoreg Dolores Ander- son as flssie Carmichael, lean Connelly as Rhebag Iohn Ollaeary as Paul Sycamoreg Bill Ryan as M1'. Depinnag Lyn Berbert as Ed Carxnichaelg Randolph Goetze as Donald, lean Storms as Alice Sycamore, Charles Preschel as Hendersong and Ned Kamin- ski as Tony Kirby. Gay Wellixmgtori, the chorus girl, was played by a newcomer, Cynthia Rosar, and Bruce Davis and Mary McQL1illan played the parts of Mr. and M1'S. Kirbyg Cora Sharfstein was the Grand Duchess Olga Katrina. One innovation to the dramatic club which was successfully carried out was an impromptu Christmas program, in which the members entertained each other with some of their favorite acts. Incidentally, it may be of interest to note that Wig and Whiske1's did not suffer a manpower shortage in this war year. They actually had enough fellows to fill all the Parts!

The club has two main Purposes: first, to give some of the rnemlners a chance to develop their own individ- ual talents, outside of school projectsg second, to grant the re- quests of the various school activities. The Sketch Club is sponsored hy Miss Ritchie, and its sole ofificer is Edythe I-lofling, who is rhe executive secretary, livery Tuesday, from two to four, the club meets, and the results of these meetings Nifty be seen throughout the school, in the halls and the homcroomsi Posters of every size and descrip- tion advertising every event from the forthcoming Play to Buy Stamps and Bondsug scenery for the VVig und Vifliiskers Produc- tiong and drawings and cuts for the Crimson Echo and L'Envoi. Through Rooseveltys Art Clulfs Posters, the student body at R.l-l.S. is informed of every dance and sports event. LIBRARY STAFF Five juniors-Florence Cave, Ann Carroll Ronan, Nfarguerite Russo, Ianice Nfariner and Elaine VVinderling-make up the library staff. Under the supervision of Miss Havey, these girls perform many duties in the library and at the same time gain knowledge and experience in librarianship. In the morning, two girls are at the main desks receiving and giving books. They take care of reserved books, keep the books in an orderly fashion on the shelves, pin up displays, and :ICI in the place of the librarian in various instances. All the girls repair old and worn books and catalog many of our school books. The staff likewise does typing and filing in the library office, keeps magazines and papers in order, and obtains periodicals for stu- dents who request them. These girls, by taking charge of the library, by preserving order and answering questions, help make another unit of our school organization run smoothly. X .

A chart has been made showing the rela- tive playing merits of the members and is posted on lvlr. Smithls bulletin board. The wheels of the Crimson Rollers have been kept spinning this year by Iohnny Andres, president, and Carolyn McKelvey, secretary. Mics. lVfcCurdy sponsors the group. Meetiiigs are held twice a month to plan definite dates for skating nights, and to welcome new members. Enrollment this year hit an all-time high when fifty students responded to the membership drive. N01 E MAKER R-OfOfS-E-V-E-L-T--ROOSEVELTY The cheering squad of Roosevelt High School is our representative at every game of the fall and winter season. Sponsored by Miss Havey, members are required to participate in leading cheers at a certain number of games each school year. Ken Robinson, captain, and Terry Ball, co-captain, led the squad. members of which were Alex Brewis, VVally Beattie, Bobby Caldf well, Ellie Fallon, Cliff Heaslip, Nan Iennings, Kathryn Nic- Nlahon, hlarilyn Seib. Bob Sumell and Red Thomas. The group went with the teams to various schools, they introduced new cheers and made for raucous voices and vacillating vocal cords at student pep assemblies. lVIemlJers of such an organization not only show their school spirit with their exuberance and enthusif asm hut give evidence of good sportsmanship when Roosevelt teams travel to other schools. f s.

Sonic of the students are from lVirs. lVlcCurdy,s secretarial department, the others are volunteers. Their varied duties include typing, minieo- graphing of special notices and schedules and lists for teachers, besides delivering notices and mail to classrooms. Students who serve on the staff may Well be appreciated by other members of rht- student body, and cletnonstration of their ability may be seen if one drops into the oflice where filing and tvpevvritiiigg are being carried on. . e c THE LONG ARM During lunch shifts the traffic squad is busy keeping students from loitering in the halls when classes are in session, during school games, it helps to maintain order. The squad, composed of thirty industrious members and sponsored personally by M1'. Richards, is headed by Captain Edwin Lieberthal and Lieutenants Robert Anderson and William Huntley. Meetings are held semi-monthly and the organization dis- cusses problems of concern to their jobs as traffic men of the school. New members are welcomed at each meeting, member- ship being open to freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors.

Ricci sponsor the activities of the thirty-six patriotic members. The officers are: Nlary Compton, president, Carolyn lVIcKelvey. vice-president, Rosalie Thorne, secretary, and Shirley Walliiig. treasurer. Nleetings are held every Thursday afternoon, when the girls read mail from former Roosevelt students now in the service, and send them copies of the Echo, form letters and special personal notes. The purpose of the club is to keep in touch with former stu- dents of Roosevelt High School now in active war service. An extensive Hle with changing addresses of soldiers, sailors, marines, VVacs and Vlfaves is kept up to date. The UEcho is mailed to students still in the country, while news letters are sent to all in service in order to keep the boys and girls informed of their old school. lViembers of the club feel that the greatest reward they receive for the many hours spent in this work comes in the hundreds of letters and cards of thanks that arrive every day from all fields of active service. The Christmas cards mailed by the club brought the greatest response. Roosevelt boys and girls appreciate being remembered. The G.O. has helped to finance the work, and individual conf tributions have kept it going. The members of this organization have made mail-call a little more fruitful for alumni in the services. 4 X f 'QA 1 x , .

UN IOR RED CROSS In September, 1917, President VVilson created the American Junior Red Cross at the request of educational groups to provicle boys and girls in the schools with channels for service to their nation in time of war. Services this year by the Roosevelt branch of the Iunior Refl Cross have been primarily the production of war relief articles such as army utility bags and the raising of funds. All services renclerecl were under the able leaclership of Miss Schall. Officers electecl this year were: Helene Collins, presiclentg Charlotte Von Heyn, secretaryg Cynthia Rosar, treasurer. The Iunior Real Cross in cooperation with the home economics classes met an emergency which occurred in the early months of the year by turning out Hfry army utility bags in five days, anal thereafter continued to complete approximately twenty-Eve bags every two weeks until the neetl was eliminatecl. I-iaving com- pleted this Project, the members turnecl to the production of war relief articles. Two Recl Cross clrives were helcl, one at the beginning of each term, ancl the receipts. which amountecl to more than 5200. were turnecl over to the central ofiice of the American Iunior Real Cross.

Wlaeii the 1942 season closecl, six varsity regulars stood to return for the next season. When Dr. lVlacCurcly opened prac- tice last September, only three of these reported, Uncle Samys Navy being the richer for Herb Schank, Bob Racicot ancl Gerry Tierney. However, Hlvlacn set to work and succeeclecl in building a team that, with a better treatment by Dame Fortune, might well have compiled a fine record. As it was, the Crimson eleven was able to win only its Hnal game with Saunclers, but every opponent except New Rochelle was fully extenclecl before it was able to triumph. Nlike Yannicelli was a fit running mate to Al Napolione, for they both letl the team in scoring. They were almost unstopable runners in the Helcl, ancl were all over the green on clefense. Ioe Santi, Iohn Hogan, Dick Simons, Dave Vv'assmer, Bob Stevens ancl lim Thompson all contributecl their talents to the RT-1.5. baelcHelcl from time to time. The line was a strong one, giving all our backfield men fine protection on the attack and presenting a powerful obstacle to running offense by our opponents, who averaged only eighty-two yards on the ground. Here Red,' Virga and Tom Tierney were almost impassable bulwarks to our defense. A mention must also go to XVassmer for his work at end, his two pass catches being the keys to our victory over Saunders. Leroy Porter, Hank De Pole, Doug Schultze, Swentzel, Bullinger and Condina started games at various times in our line. The final contest of the season, the Thanksgiving morning battle with Saunders, resulted in the Indians' first and only tri- umph by a score of I3 to 0. The first touchdown came after Saunders had printed from behind its goal and VVassmer re- turned it Hfteen yards to the ten. Two running plays and an incomplete pass left the ball where it had started, but Santi took a lateral from Hogan and found W3SSHlL'l' alone in the corner of the end zone with a perfect pass for the six-pointer. The last tally came soon afterward, after a 62-yard drive in which VVassmer, Napolione, Yannicelli and Santi brought the ball solely through passes from our 38 to the Engineers' 23. On fourth down, Santi passed again to W8SSHlCl', who ran to the seven. Yannicelli bucked over on the next play and Napolione added the point on a plunge. If you rate a football season purely on its success. our record of one victory, Hve defeats and a tie must be considered a failure. But if playing hard, giving your opponents and the spectators a run for their money, and having a great time are the yardstick, Roosevelt was UNDEFEATED AND UNTIED. RESULTS l. R.H.S.---Mt.

It was his three baskets in a row that gave us a Hve-point margin at the start of the last period. A great deal of credit also belongs to Dave Vlfassmer. who limited the famous Dan Quilty to nine points. In this bitter struggle no more than five points ever separated the contestants. The next week XVhite Plains beat us again. 44fl6. After Regents week had provided a welcome rest from that horror. the Indians came back with vengeance, crushing Saunders, 53-40. This was a rather rough game. fifty-two foul shots being taken. Wassniei' was our leading scorer, netting twenty points. lVIike was awarded no fewer than I6 foul shots. netting seven of them along with Eve baskets for 17 markers. A real heart-stopper followed when Yonkers was encountered at the Y.M.C.A. The Indians lost a nine-point lead in the last quarter. Yonkers taking a 42-39 margin. Yonkers could not score in the end. and Roosevelt poured in eight straight points to win. 47-42. Mike led our scorers with sixteen. Sarno scoring one point less. A word of credit must go to Dick Simons, who had the un- pleasant job of trying to fill Stantonis shoes. Gee Lyons and Dan IN4orrison had supporting roles, while Bob Bjork. Ioe Butkowskv and Spider Gilmartin also broke into varsity games. Coach Seidell worked hard with the Iayvees, who rewarded his efforts with five victories. All in all, it was a better season than most of us consider it now. The team did win seven games. . , ,wi . lg: J is le x O' xx N , 1 f i , V 5 . A4 : 1, S fb BA EBALL On April 18, Roosevelt invaded Nlount Vernon to defeat A. B. Davis by a score of 6-4 in ten innings, Dick Sarno, veteran moundsman of the Indians, went the full ten frames, striking out seventeen and walking none. This was a most remarkable con- test, no fewer than twenty-one Crimson Players being stranded on the base Paths. The Indians tallied in the Hrst inning on singles by Kay, Sarno and Baldwin. Stretching their lead to four runs in the fourth, Roosevelt scored another on a hit batsman, Kayls second single, and Pulvermiller's double, the first of his four straight hits. In their half of the fifth, Davis tallied four runs, Sarno giving up Hve hingles in that frame. For three innings neither team could score. VVhen the Indians batted in the tenth, they loaded the bases on a Walk and two errors. Poor Branca, who struck out five batters during the weird frame, forced in the two deciding runs before the side was retired. This victory seemed to point the way to wide vistas, even a W.I.A.A. title. Coach Seidell has a group of new but willing players, from whom anything might be expected. ln Sarno we have a brilliant right hand pitcher, gifted with a blazing fast ball on occasion. Gee Lyons is his excellent battery mate. The inHeld of Al Benjamin, Paul Cuomo, Pete West, Iim Pulver- miller and Bill Kay is snappy on defense and effective on attack. The outfield of Bruce Baldwin, Stan VVaitzman and Alf Napoli- one is good. The second contest resulted in defeat, but the situation ap- peared to remain the same. Tuckahoe High ran its three year winning streak to twenty-Hve by nosing Roosevelt Ollt in the Hnal inning, 5-4. The Indians had taken a four to one lead during a wild fourth inning on a walk, hits by Sarno and Waitzmali. three errors, and a force out. A pass and single Put Dick Smullen. our alternate hui-ler, in a hole with one out in the seventh, and Sarno was called in to quench the fire. He fanned the Hrst hitter but got badly behind by uncorking a wild pitch on the next one. Two successive infield hits pushed over the tying and winning runs. Our first league game with Yonkers resulted in a l-0 defeat. A Pass to center fielder Lyons and Sylvestri's single set the stage for a lazy pop fly double by Tom Devany which chased in Lyons with the only score. Smullen toiled brilliantly in the last three innings, facing only the minimum of nine batters, but the dam- age was already done. Sylvestri ended a brilliantly pitched game by fanning West and pinch-swinger Dick Simons. Although the season is yet incomplete, we think that history will record a fair share of triumphs for Roosevelt's baseball nine of 1944. SA I 1. X f 1 xXx Y xx A xx f X N fgxd I ...

The scores were: Gorton 44, Roosevelt 35, and Albert Leonard 28. To say the least, the team was very green for the first meet. However, this one meet was all they needed to make a careful study of their faults and to correct them for the ensuing meets. At Roosevelt's first track event both the hundred yard dash and the running broad jump were taken with a minimum of effort by Artie De Maio. Ken Kelly, a former track man, took second in the mile with Charlie Hoyt coming from behind to take fourth place. Sutton Titus, also a past runner of the Grim- son, came a close second in the quarter mile event. Roosevelt held its own in the 220 yard dash, for Leroy Porter came second and Iohn Scott ran third. After a pause for the high jump where Dick Lindstrom and Robert Appell Placed second and third, respectively, and the shot put in which HBuzz3' Graham took second, Walt Wagiieit Placed second in a smooth half mile race. In the last event, the relay, Iohn Scott, anchor man, came second. Other members of the 1944 team are: Leon Nlarrano, Harry Kelly, Louis Schulze, Iohn Matthews, Howard Thompson, Wally Kain, Ed Burns, lim Arbuckle and Iim Thomson. HARRIER DO WELL The Roosevelt harriers under the tutorship of Coach Seidell turned in a successful season. The team was co-captained by Sutton Titus and Ken Kelly and ably managed by lrwin Smal- heiser. The Hrst meet of the year was a triangular meet against Mamaroneck and Saunders, which was run in a cold rain. Roose- velt Came in second, losing to Saunders by only two points. Ken Kelly won the race, with Sutton Titus fifth, Andy Keating seventh, VValter W2'lgIlC1' tenth, and Charles Hoyt thirteenth. Roosevelt placed thirty-third in the N.Y.U. National Invita- tion Meet in a field of forty-seven Picked high schools. For the Hrst time in its history Roosevelt had a B team. ln its only race of the season. the B team lost to the B team of Gorton while beating the A team of A. B. Davis by the narrow margin of two Points. Howard Thompson of Roosevelt won individual honors by nosing out two Gorton runners at the finish line. This season's squad was a large one, although it had only four veterans. Other members of the squad who turned in fine per- formances were Dan Morrisoii, Ted Brockmeier. Doug Schultze, Bob Doyle, Octavius Ieffry, Herbert Eichhorn and Carlton Rhodes. Coach Seidell unearthed some outstanding talent in the sopho- more and junior classes this season, and high hopes are set for next year's crop of harriers. yefgyz , XL , - C 1' f Q K A, if is 2--if 1 gy :.- 'ki' y iffflgk- E4l554sggi?eus Ei if I X X 4 .. 1 . ,T. .

Loudon, has done much in the way of pro- ducing a well organized rifle team. ln spite of the lack of experi- enced riflemen, it made much use of the range, but conhned most of its time to preparing for inter-scholastic rifie matches, The members of the team consisted of Wallace Kain, Tom Florich, Leon lvlarrano, Waltc'r' Wag1ie1', Bill Siddall, Clifford Cavanaugh and Ken Vernam. On account of government regulations, the National Rifle Association was forced to give the team a reduced amount of ammunition. This action compelled it to decrease the number of meetingsg however, all available time was spent giving instruc- tion to the novice and also down to earth serious training for the matches with the various high schools. Very often, general discussions were held based on general Problems of a shooter and on the latest developments in arms and ammunition. On the basis of 500, which is a perfect score, the team held the following regulation matches, whose results were: CU C25 C35 Albert Leonard .,,. ...... 4 79 479 Roosevelt ..,..... ...... 4 78 483 A.

M1-fig, TUDE T LEADERS Due to the frequent faculty changes in the girls, gym in the past year, the Student Leaders have had to increase their activi- ties greatly, and have done an excellent job in helping their new instructors become acclimated to the Roosevelt wayfl Mrs. lVlacCurdy and Nlrs. Guarino, the new instructors, filled the vacancies left by lyirs. Galda and lVIrs. Sarubbi. A number of structural changes in the organization have also taken place, most important of which was the acceptance of a new constitution. Ofhcers for the year were Marion Rivers, presi- dent, and Pearl Pless, vice-president and secretary-treasurer. Fri- day was known as Student Leaders' day, but meetings were held only when called by the president. Besides doing their regular jobs in class, such as helping with P.l3.l. tests, refereeing hockey, basketball and baseball games, taking attendance, and helping with the commando course, the group organized teams to compete against each other in the various seasonal sports. Though the organization was quite large this year, it is certain that the sphere of infiuence and interest of the Student Leaders group will increase with each succeeding year. is . was 03 , 4 ,W 1 l Basketball, under the able instruction of Mrs. lVIacCurdy and Mrs. Guarino, has kept its - reputation of being the most popular sport among the girls. As in revious ears, a double tournament took lace, one for the All Star teams, the P Y other for the K'Class teams. The winners in the Class team Played the 'LNemesis, winner of the All Star team, and the Nemesis won by a 12 to 10 score. BASKETBALL FIELD HOCKEY The third season of field hockey has left the sport established among the sport-minded girls of Roosevelt. The skill, adaptability and enthusiasm of the players were very well matched in the final 'game of the season, when Bette Harper's team was victorious over Iane Robinson's team with a 2 to l score. Archery, under the capable supervision of M1's. Gnarino, attracted many CupidsH during the warm spring and summer months. ln previous years, the more experienced girls Illet on Nlonday and the inexperienced players met on Thursday. This year there was no distinction between the experienced player and the novice. The entire group has met each Thursday. Pearl Pless, Eleanor Vxfelch, Gloria De M81'C0, Doris Brown, Estelle Tarbes and Judy Gruberg were the girls seen most often on the range. SOFTBALL Softball, which was conducted as a class activity, had a large number of enthusiastic ARCHERY players out almost every day after the season started. Those who spent time playing after school were: Pearl Pless, Helene Collins, Gladys Stahl, Kay Truman, Ann De Van, Betty Reilly, Ginny Barr, Marion Rivers, lane Roach, Marjorie Schultze, Pat Glockner and Helaine First. This year the Girls, Swimming Club was not as active as usual, because of a state law forbidding high school girls from competing in inter-school swimming meetsg also the Yonkers Y.W.C.A, was closed for four months due to the coal shortage. The club was under the leadership of Anne Rosar, and included among its members Flora Meister, Kathleen Iacobi, Dot Cimaglia, Ruth Niartin, Niarilyn Seib, Gladys Stahl, Cynthia Rosar, Ruth Stew- art, Eleanor Welcli, Louise Blauvelt, lane Lister, Bette Harper, Ann Van Anden and Connie Gatchell. BOWLING Bowling, one of the most popular indoor sports, attracted a large number of girls this year SWIMMING and an active club was formed. Ar the first meeting Eleanore Peko, Florence Lyons and Ioan Files were elected as ofhcers. Though not a regular activity of the athletic program in Roosevelt, the club, which bowled on alternate Fridays, had an enjoyable year. The highest score of the year, 150, was attained by Adele Mirra. 1 i W K A MR.
