In this memory book we are re- cording the names of Roosevelt students who have been officers in the most prominent organizations in this school for the year i933- 1934. l National Honor Society Alice Marie Conn, President, Louise Stiglitz, Vice President, Mil- dred Trtan, Secretary-Treasurer. l Girl Counsellors Jeanette Castle, President, Mary Vida, Vice President, Irene Harvin, Secretary, Lillian Chrapla, Treas- urer. l Debaters Negative Team: Louis Marcus, James Addison, George Seifert.

Merit, years of service, ability, leadership, and cooperation, are considered before officers are elected to conduct the activities of music organizations. These students who have been measured by the definite rating scales of the music department have filled the leading positions in the music organizations this year.

Suits are issued! Gridiron men prac- tice new maneuversl The season begins! l Beyond a doubt the l933 team was one of the greatest in the his- tory of Roosevelt High School. Only four of these teams ever crossed the goal line, a record of which to be proud. We made a total of llO points, our opponents totaled 3l points. I This year's team was led by Cap- tain Ray Gunderson, quarterback, who called the signals and showed quick thinking in his choice of plays. Peter Oswego, one of the best drop-kickers in the region also played quarterback. At the guards we had Steve Jagadich, Stanley Petropolis, Jack Hupke and Adam Macak, who did their part in break- ing up the opponent's line. At end, we had Cleo Diehl and Eddie Rucin- ski. These boys were especially apt at snagging passes. At tackle we could always rely on John Ginay, Delbert Hartley, John Rossman and Joe Lokanc. For ball carriers we had the fullbacks Frank Patrick, who was chosen on the All-State High School football team and Peter Hanes. These boys were always good for a few yards when a first touch down was needed. Our half- backs were Louis Seles, Norman Passmore, Edward Bakota and Frank Barlog. l Our l933-34 basketball team was one of the finest ever turned out in this school. Although the season's Passing Pigslcinsl Grapplingl Tossing Balls! record displays a total of nine wins and eight losses, it is a well known fact that five of the eight defeats were by the small margin of not more than three points. l The Riders opened their season by defeating Hammond Tech in a very close game with the final score 22-20. ln the second game of the year we were defeated by Froebel l7-20, on the following night we defeated Thornton Fractional 46-l7. Valparaiso took a thrilling 2O-2l victory from the Riders which was followed with a 26-24 victory over the Whiting Oilers The Riders were turned back by Horace Mann, Froebel, Valparaiso and Washington before starting their five game win- ning streak in which they defeated such teams as Whiting, Emerson, Horace Mann, and Catholic Central. I Roosevelt lost the City Cham- pionship to Washington l l-34, and also lost to Hammond in a return game. We closed our schedule by trouncing the Hobart Brickies 33-20. l lt would not be fair to close the summary of the season without mentioning the boys who were re- sponsible for the enviable record in basketball this year. As forwards were Cleo Diehl and Frank Patrick, who made many needed points dur- ing the season. At guard, we had John Kowalski, Eddie Kumiegi and Stanley Dubis who besides being the main stays in the defense, did a lot to improve the offense of the team. At center we had Eddie Rucinski who always tried his best to bring the tip-off to Roosevelt. Page Eighteen A d I pl y l ii Dyke, Cfomplinzculs of Friealmari ,leivelrrt Reviewing the Athletic Season by Harry Bush I The Roosevelt Wrestling Team of l933-34 enjoyed the most unusual and outstanding season in the his- tory of wrestling in our institution. lts record for the season is indeed one of which we are proud. Our team defeated the best mat teams in the entire region. I The grapplers opened the season with the Washington Senators and emerged with a smashing 43-3 victory, this triumph automatically gave the Riders full title to the City Championship. The team then traveled to Chicago where it en- gaged the powerful Tilden Tech squad. Here the Riders displayed the best form of the season and succeeded in whitewashing it 40-O, however, in the return match the Techmen displayed some hid- den strength and succeeded in tying the score. This match was followed by a brilliant 4l-5 victory over South Bend. I Our team then played hosts to Hammond and Washington in a tri- angular meet, which we won with ease, the grapplers compiling a total of 82 points. I The ambition of the team was fulfilled when it traveled to the An- nual State Tournament held in Bloomington, Indiana and finished in a tie for first place. Joe Brxa, James Sefton, John Ginay, and Wal- ter Czerwinski, swept by all the op- position in their division and be- came State Champions. I This spectacular wrestling team consisted of James Sefton, Joe Brxa, Walter Czerwinski, John Ginay, Page Nineteen Matt Kasza, Barney Mnich, Walter Dortiak, Joe Lokanc, Jack Hupke, Peter Vuchinas, Anthony Zelencik and John Kartz. I The organization of Roosevelt Olympic Association dates back to the fall of l928. This association serves as a central organization for girls' athletics in the school. I The sportheads elected by the members of the R.O.A. regulate a point system through which awards are achieved. I ln September, Coach Overpeck's girls started the athletic season with baseball, tennis and hockey. On November first, basketball, the queen of girls' sports in Roosevelt, brought out forty girls who were eager to make the varsity and class teams. I The varsity basketball team opened its season with a one point victory over the Alumni, the final score was Zl-20. This victory was followed with a two point victory over the Washington Senator- ettes. This victory gave the Roosevelt girls the City Champion- ship. I The Junior girls team was out- standing in interclass competition. Whenever the Riderettes met the Senatorettes the competition was exceedingly keen. I Girls who won outstanding recog- nition in basketball were: Mary Matej, Carrie Stasko, Fern Kerr, Margaret Brennock, Katherine Gergely, Carolyn Korak and Frances Rospond.

UTQ In' governed fry y0llV ddlllll tiour rather llran fry your dixgufn -Van Dyk JOHN G. ROSSMAN RUSSEL R. MYERS Superintendent of Schools Principal, Roosevelt High School Gazing Down l'ligl'iroad 1933-1934 I We pause on the footpath of the year nineteen thirty-three and nine- teen thirty-four to look backward and to view the road we have made and then to plunge on breaking the earth for the new roads that are to come. We have been glad of life, we have found the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars. I Standing at the beginning of the road we found one thousand three hundred and forty-three students waiting for the journey to begin. Six hundred and ninety-seven were senior high school students while six hundred and forty-six junior high school students were also waiting to travel down the same pathway. I Late in September, the senior class initiated the first school Tag Day, in order that students in school might become acquainted. Every student wore a Tag, designating his name and class. Tag dances for the Junior and Senior High School were greatly enjoyed by everyone. I October camel We sighted the Frolic, which was given to benefit the General School Fund. The Seniors obtained permission from the Faculty to sponsor this Frolic. Roosevelt corridors were changed into a World's Fair Midway. Cen- tury of Progress Concessions fur- nished a gay evening to Frolic guests. I Music students crowded into the instrumental and vocal organiza- tions, giving them the largest en- rollment the department has ever had. Two hundred and seventy-five students were enrolled in instru- mental organizations. Two hundred and sixty-eight singers made up the organizations in the vocal depart- ment. These organizations cooper- ated in presenting the first Christ- mas Vesper Concert on the Sunday before Christmas. Music organiza- tions presented outstanding per- formances for the Spring Music Festival, The All-City Concert with Washington High School, The Band Concert, and the Third Annual Showdown. I Roosevelt sent twenty-three or- chestra members and twenty-four singers to join other students in the Chicago area in making up the ln and About Chicago Orchestra and Chorus. These organizations, the chorus conducted by Robert Lee Osborn and the Orchestra con- ducted by William Revelli, per- formed before the National Music Supervisors Conference in Chicago in April. I Since the school year was short- ened, it was necessary to change the club hour from the advisory period to a period after school. ln spite of this fact, the Edita, Senior Hi-Y, CfB.C.B., Junior I-li-Y, Junior Page Twenty-four Compliments of Lawyer D.

Dunsing by Camille Daniels Girl Reserves, Senior Girl Reserves, Junior Dramatic Club, The Cita- mard Club, Printing Club, and Na- ture Study Club survived and have been carrying on during the year, These organizations have served the school in many philanthropic ways. Honor clubs which organized were the National Honor Society, the Student Council, the Board of Health, the Junior Red Cross, the Girl Counselors, the Boys' Patrol, and the A.G.S.A. I Creative and artistic talents were given a chance for expression in The Third Annual Showdown in which all students in the school had an opportunity to participate. I Clever feature numbers, ln Old Madrid, The Toy Maker's Dream, The Rangers, The Kentucky Hillbillies and numer- ous original skits were used in mak- ing up the diverting program which was presented three times. I The Student Council, an organi- zation composed of representatives from every section in school, initi- ated plans for bringing a new type of student government to the school. Through its efforts, a con- stitution for the Roosevelt student government organization was cre- ated and adopted by the student body. Officers to carry on the gov- ernment next year were elected in May. Page Twenty-five Compliments of Dr. A. A. Ross BOARD OF EDUCATION I Although the interest and en- thusiasm for Debating have never been outstanding in Roosevelt, this year Roosevelt Debators have done noteworthy work. At the Lake County Debating Tournament in Hammond last March, three mem- bers of the team were highly com- mended by the critic of the day, J. L. Cunningham, of the North- western University Department of Speech. I Students interested in theatrical productions presented several en- joyable performances, including the Senior Play, Conner's Applesauce and Franken's Mr. Dooley Junior presented by the Juniors. Many one act plays, coached and managed by students, were given during the year. Three of the most entertain- ing of these were Trifles, God Winks, and Aria Da Cappa. I Class parties, after school dances, noon dancing classes, and the all- school dances proved to be very popular with the student body. The Freshman Class Hop, the Sopho- more Party, the Junior Parties and Prorn, and the Senior Parties and Prom were high lights in Roosevelt's social year. I Entertaining assembly programs were presented at intervals during the year. The Courtship of Miles Standish presented at Thanksgiving, WTCoritinued on page 59l Familiar Faces! Familiar Places!

We felt so big . . . The rooms and the desks seemed so large that we were nearly lost. With Miss Lillian Cohen, Miss Ruth Lar- son, and Miss Maureen Murphy as our guides we safely weathered all the storms and cyclones of the Junior High School years. I We entered the freshmen class not as green as other freshmen were because we were acclimated to the Rooseveltian ways. We now made plans for our first freshman party. We could hardly with- hold the excitement waiting until after school. Doris Bates and Brenton Steck were the lucky win- ners of the waltz contest.

We elected Ray Gun- derson, President, Cleo Diehl, Vice President, Stanley Dubis, Secretary, to conduct our activities during this year. At the end of the year we were known as one of the most energetic and industrious classes in school. I The most important event of the Junior year was the presentation of Larry E.

I The play was a financial success bringing over ninety dollars into the Junior exchequer. This popular play was presented four times be- fore amused and appreciative audiences. I Although as Juniors we enjoyed several parties the Junior Prom was the outstanding event of the year. I September, i933 found us look- ing upward to the end of the road and graduation. Through the per- Page Twenty-nine mission of the Faculty the Class gave the Annual Frolic. A percent- age of the proceeds was used to finance the Round-Up. A highlight of the year was the presentation of Applesauce written by Barry O'Conners, as the Annual Senior Play. The cast included: Mr, Rob' inson, Harold Layer, Mrs. Robinson Geraldine Kenzie, Hazel Robinson, Mildred Trtan, Bill McAllister, Richard White, Rollo Jenkins George Priest, Matt McAllister, Donald Wells, and Mrs. Baldwin, Dorothy Karlovsky.

Take For example A growing tree As it springs From the kernel of its seed And takes on form Men delight To hunt it And discover it among The fallen leaves They glory in lts sweetness and freshness. lt becomes For them a symbol al the rhzrr. -Van Dykc' Compiling Literary Contributions Made by Aspiring Young Writers Of life and hope And of satisfaction in Humble beginnings. While it develops And grows to full form Men live and die. Thus the tree becomes A symbol of endurance, A symbol of peace And tranquility and nobleness.

The remaining boys of Tarzan temperment will find the rings on the moving pulleys which will run at a high altitude beside the lockers not only a great aid in speedy transportation between classes but also a great aid in mus- cle development. l All bow-legged, knock-kneed, agile boys and those incapable of balancing on stilts or hanging on rings must walk on top of the lock- ers. l Rope ladders swung over the upstairs banisters down to the lower halls will greatly relieve congestion on the stairways. l The girls who pass through the halls will wear football headgears and noseguards to protect them from dangling feet. -Sigrid Strickland. l CHRISTMAS TIME!

How dully gray the day would be, lf I did not in my heart sing, And had not silver-needled rain, To transform everything. -Jane Price. Page Forty-six Compliments of Northern Lights Ire Cream Parlor Cn Committees I Committees are a worry. First, the president must worry about whom he should appoint on a com- mittee. Second, the appointed chairman of the committee must worry about whether or not his com- mittee will work. Third, the mem- bers of the committee must worry about what they might be called on to do. I Of course, the chairman has the responsibility of supervising the doing of the work. For this he should be well prepared. The usual prepa- rations are a large enough supply of gum to keep him from biting more than one fingernail at a time, five well-sharpened pencils to aid him in scribbling hurriedly that he may look intensely busy, and an ice-pack to help him in keeping a cool head. I Any member of the committee should be prepared at any time to duck into a convenient nook. He should not be surprised if the chair- man discovers and reprimands him for not being at the last committee meeting of which he knew nothing. At some time during his service he should expect to be severely re- proached for neglecting his duty by the dean, the club sponsor, or the chairman's mother. I On the appointed day the com- mittee's report is received. Although the chairman and the committee are not present to enjoy the glory of their work, the club approves their accomplishment. I Meanwhile, the chairman and the committee are hopefully applying hair tonic, vainly seeking for an ef- ficient fingernail restorer, and mark- Page Forty-seven Complimentx of Eaft Chicago Rextaurant ing in red on the calendar the Sun- days during which they intend to sleep. l repeat, committees are a worry. - Sigrid Strickland. DREAMERS WORLD I A dreamer lives in a lovely world, A world all of his own, Where things are just as fancy creates, And ugliness is unknown. To him a fact can be a dream A dream can be a fact, And the things he puts into his world, Are only those which attract. How wonderful is such a paradise, A Valhalla to which l'll attest, But perfection does get tiresome, And l like reality best. -Jane Price. I OLD FASHONED PICTURE Oh, lovely old fashioned lady, so still in your ornate frame, Your beautiful, midnight tresses Put mine quite to shame. Eyes of deep and stormy blue. Profile, exquisite, cameo-like Tiniest hands and daintiest of feet, Complexion of rose-petal and white.

I Reviewing the Athletic Season fContinued from page l9l I Once a week, girls interested in swimming went over to Washington High School where they perfected their strokes and their dives in the swimming pool. ln the city meet, Roosevelt Girls took honors in div- ing. Edna Mae Richeson and Fern Kerr who took first places and Ann Hurseak who took second place were outstanding members of the swimming team. l With the coming of Spring Roosevelt girls displayed much in- terest in tennis, baseball, and track. l The first call for Cross-Country candidates brought out a wealth of new material along with seven let- termen. The harriers worked hard to get into condition for the two mile grind. l This season, the harriers entered only one contest when they met Hammond, losing the meet by a close score. I However, James Burke, Milton Miller, Eddie Kumiegi, John Kers- nowski, Paul Cashman, James Sefton and Peter Kasper deserve credit for their good work. l The last race has been run! Suits are turned in! Awards for the sea- son were presented to the outstand- ing athletes! The i933-34 Athletic Season has ended! Page Fifty-nine I Gazing Down Highroad 1933-1934 lContinued from page 25i silhouetted pictures of The Nativity with carols and scriptural readings at Christmas time, the address of President Oxnam of DePauw Uni- versity, the youthful, entertain- ing magician, Foxwell, the address by Greyearth, a Sioux Indian, brought to the school through the efforts of the Hi-Y, and the pro- gram presented by boy and girl scouts were unusual assembly fea- tures. l At the beginning of the first semester, the publication depart- ment announced the largest sub- scription list in the history of the Rough Writer. Roosevelt's paper and year book were accepted by the Quill and Scroll, a National Honor- ary Journalistic Organization. In May, honor members of the Rough Writer and Round-Up Staffs be- came members of the first Roosevelt Quill and Scroll organization. l Through the cooperation of the Clinic and the Health Board, Roose- velt students were urged to become health conscious. All Junior High School students were given dental examinations by the C.W.A. den- tists. The continuance of the Girls' Health Contest and the electing of Roosevelt's Health Queen did much to improve the health of the girls. l The outstanding events of the Roosevelt sport year will be recorded in other pages in this book. And now at the end of the foot- path of the year we seek new roads, which have been broken on this journey. Future students will look forward to these new pathways and will find new guide posts as they tread the way. Sign Here l l l To llvink xeldom of your enemies and often of your friendxf' -Van Dyke.
