Hoping to make this ROUND-UP more than a decoration on the family bookshelf, the staff worked diligently and unrelent- lessly to compile and produce a book that would depict school life at Roosevelt during the 1949-50 school year. The Staff sincerely hopes that the ROUND-UP will be a source of reminiscence to everyone. Our efforts will be repayed through your enjoyment of it. Pago Five BOARD OF ADMIRALS RUDOLPH JARABAK STANLEY KWIAT President Treasurer HERBERT RIMES Secretary The School Board is appointed by the City Council to admin- ister for the general welfare of our school. This year we are especially indebted to these civic-minded gentlemen for our newly decorated classrooms. School is now more pleasant for the teachers and the students. Page Six VICE ADMIRAL CAPTAIN His service to the city school system is acknowledged with most sincere thanks. His efficiency as an administrator is recog. nited by all. DAN SIMON Principal Although his first yoar as principal of Roosevelt High School has been occupied with details. Mr. Simon has always found time to be friendly with and considerate of his faculty and students. EXECUTIVE OFFICERS FRED S. HAYNES Dean of Boys AILEEN E. OWEN Dean of Girls His pleasing personality and wit do much to explain his popularity with the students. Mr. Haynes is carrying out another suc- cessful year as adviser to the fellows and a friend to all at R. H. S. We all admire the wise judgment, and efficiency of Miss Owen as an adviser, leader, and a friend to all the girls. Her sincere understanding of our problems in- spires the confidence we place in her.

Rod da Page Ten IN MEMORIAM HARRY APOSTLE Mr. Apostle was energetic, deter- mined and persevering. He was exacting in his reguirements as to scholarship, classroom conduct, and the development o! good study ha- bits. The student in his class knew what he was to do and did it. For this Mr. Apostle merited and received the respect and admiration of his pupils. His entire service in Fast Chicago was given to Roosevelt High School where for a number of years he had been departmental chairman of Natural Science, but he assisted generously on many com- mittees. His passing left us without another one of our instructors school- ed in the philosophy that you had to give to get. ANNETTA SPECTER Annetta Specter loved learning and fostered this love for learning in her students — there are now members on our own faculty who. as her pupils, felt her influence. She gave of herself to the community and school. And yet her work went further than classroom teaching for she was active in all school enter- prises. Miss Specter had special pleasure, however, in her ability to develop pupil thinking by question- ing. persuasion and by considera- tion. She had. also the quality of showing personal talents, in making their abilities grow and helping them achieve a measure of success. Annetta Specter lived a full and rich life of giving. IN COMMEMORATION Composed and read by Miss Swatts the day the Y-Teens planted two trees in memory of Miss Specter and Mr. Apostle. Somewhere There is a lonesome place Where once small seedlings bedded fragile root In sandy loam And stretched lean trunks with easy grace In quest of growth In far-off forest home. Transplanted here with humble rites They mark our loving, living memory Of two Who late have left a lonesome place In hearts of us that knew Their constancy. Today We dedicate the legacy Each gave. We plant a tree? I say We plant a shade Which hallows teachings, broad and boundless As eternity: We plant a beauty That commemorates Their immortality. F.

OFFICERS President. Ray Pavich Secretary. Rosetta Ashby Business Manager. Eugene Kowal COMMENCEMENT The Senior Class of 1950 march down the aisle together for the last time. Although they look proud and confident on the outside, they feel sad and not so self-assured on the inside. The strains of Pomp and Circumstance fill the auditorium as the graduates find their places and listen to the words of the inspir- ing speaker. Soon, minds begin to drift to that frist year as freshmen. They seem to recall how lost they were in such a strange building; and they will never forget that feeling of bewilderment as they kept looking for the elevator the seniors said they would find. Still drifting in memory, they find them- selves in their sophomore year, losing that bashful glance, and recovering a carefree expression that accompanies the feeling of being an old timer. Minds drift one more year. What a feeling that was to think they were half way through high school years. How they looked forward to the year of 1950, that seemed so far. far away. And now seniors at last!!! As freshmen that day seemed as though it would never come. Now as seniors, they wish it had taken longer. A lump rises in their throats and eyes blink away unwanted tears. Dreams of happy school days now gone, remind them of a ship, sailing smoothly, sometime meeting conflicts and barriers, but sailing for four years and finally reaching a destination—the Port of Graduation. They recall that during this voyage they have found treasures, that they will carry in memory for years to come—Freshman danc- ing class and picnic, class plays, showdown, being an officer of an organization, belong- ing to the National Honor Society, taking part in State Championship football games, all the many basketball games, and all the activities of the Y-Teens. Girl Counselors. Student Government, and Purple White. In the recession, the graduates march from the memorable scene clasping those diplo- mas tightly. They know they must move on because there are others waiting to take their places when they are gone. To those, the seniors say. Full Speed Ahead! Pag® Fourteen AMRAI. WILLIAM J.

Ellen Cash and Lorraine Thomas as their chosen leaders and under the supervision of Mrs. Emma Henry, the Y-Teen Cabinet is composed of 30 girls who are elected by the Y-Teens of almost 200 members. They have completed a very successful year. The main activity was The Snow Ball , a formal dance in early January. They also sponsored the Turnabout Dance, the Splash Party. Sock Hop. Mothers' Teas, and visits to the Carmelite Orphanage. During the Clean-Up Week, titled. Roosevelt Will Shine. two trees were planted on the campus in memory of our deceased teachers. GIRL COUNSELORS Senior and Junior girls rated for their citizenship, leadership, and scholarship, look forward to being mem- bers of this group which is organized especially to help the younger girls in Junior High School. They try to acquaint their little sisters with the school and en- courage them to participate in school activities. This year the Girl Counselors presented a Dude Ranch Dance as one main activity. They also enjoyed a few interesting conferences, and lunchtime get-togethers. Roosevelt High congratulates this fine organization; a vital group who help develop fine girls for Its stu- dent body.

It's members are representatives of all 9-12 grade levels and all school organizations. The purpose of this group is to plan and provide wholesome recreation for the students. Our Student Government tries to pro- mote better feeling among the students and teachers. As one main activity, they completed the Scholastic Hall of Honor. They started a long needed Calendar Projed which will help elimi. nate confusion and conflicts in schedul ing activities, and as we go to press they are completing many other similar projects. So praise goes to this organi- zation; a fine example of a democratic dub. After being chosen to be in the Honor Society, each student receives a pin with C.S.S.L. which signify that the owner has character, service, leadership and scholarship. In addition he is in the upper 10% of the class. It is truly an honor to have high standards of character and ability; Just as it is an equal honor to belong to this Chapter.

In return they are rewarded by the appre- ciation. esteem, and applause of the student body at Roosevelt High School. It is customary for this club to sing Christmas Carols in the halls of our school just beforo Christmas holidays. This practice is so favorably accepted by the students that it will probably remain to be an annual recurrence. Of course, the main activity of the club is singing together, but they generally givo several social events during the year. This year, they sponsored the impressive Jingle Bell Dance.

Future football heroe had been conditioning for several weeks in August with hard blocking, run- ning. passing and working as a team. Coaches Rudnski and Miller and the squad were determined to regain the crown which they lost the previous year. The Rough Riders disposed of highly touted Tech in the opening game by a score of 26 to 0. Bill Holzach and Hank Lukowski tallied two touchdowns apiece, while Stan Ifebosz and John Wendlinger shone on defense. The second half told the story in the Clark game After the smoke cleared and the game ended. Roosevelt won its second shutout. 27 to 0. being the fifth con- secutive shutout handed Clark. Tho battle with Horace Mann ended all doubts as to whether Roosevelt had reserve strength, for three touchdowns were scored by reserves. The score showed another shutout. This time 31 to 0. 8.000 fans who came to admire the speed and de- ception of Evansville Reitz’s Pete Fisher stayed to marvel at the exploits of the rugged Roosevelt line. The Riders gained revenge for a loss to Reitz last season that broke a string of 34 wins, with a score of 20 to 12. Some of the most spectacular grid talent was un- furled on the night of the Hammond High game. Wildcat dreams of conquest were thwarted when the final gun sounded and the score read 26 to 14. Rugged Harrison was next in line to be trampled upon by the devastating Rider attack. Holxbach con- tributed three touchdowns toward a 34 to 7 score. Whiting was no exception as the Riders kept on the victory trail, rolling up the biggest score of the year. 45 to 0. The team played with vengeance keeping the previous season’s loss to them in mind. South Bend Washington became boastful when the midway score showed the panthers in lead 7 to 6. The enthusiasm simmered down, however, when the Riders returned, took the lead, finishing the game 28 to 7. The Brown Derby” classic was the final conference game and was to decide the representative at the Western Division playoffs. Our cross town rivals played a fine game, but were outcharged and outfought. Ever dependable Bill Holxbach scored all four touchdowns. The score being 28 to 0. Next in line was the big game that some players re- membered similarly preparing for. two years ago.

East Chicagoans celebrated the playoff victory in the customary manner that Fri- day night in South Bend. Auto caravans roared through town sections, and hilarity was the by word that night. After donning civies. the gridders ap- peared at the New York Central dopot where fans gave a huge ovation. Then moat of them got aboard the Rough Rider Special and tourneyed back to the home town. Celebrating state football titles was be- coming a habit for the Rider followers. However, the following night they staged a gala observance of the Roosevelt tri- umph. A parade, escorted by police and firemen, was formed at the school. March ers and autos then wended their way to the Chicago Avenue intersection where a sparkling program of speeches, music, cheers and entertainment were presented. 2.000 flaros added the proper touch to the festivities.

Because of such ideals as. fight, determination, resoluteness, and self-assurance, the Rider team brouqht some more glory to Roosevelt. The team had a very successful season, and ended with seventeen wins and only four losses. They won the East Chicago Division of the Hammond Sectionals and placed second in the Conference. Ray Pavichovich. the captain of the team, completed his final season as a prep player with two scoring records to his credit. He led both the Conference and Region in scoring. He broke the Roosevelt individual scoring record for a season with 358 points; he set a new school mark with his 30 points in the Valpo game. This was the 19S0 Varsity Basketball Team: PAVICHEVICH A natural on the hardwood who was the most outstanding high-scoring ace in the region. BEISON His soaring one handers from any angle were dreaded by overy opposition. HOLZBACH Hard-driving senior who kept cool under fire and dropped in crucial points. CARR Great in spirit and drive. Played hard in every game with the Never Say Die attitude. BECK A junior with great rebounding ability and shooting skill who played the pivot. SOBKOWICZ Fast, sly and tricky dribbler, who could really handle the ball. Things look fairly bright for the next season as boys like. Don Beck. John Popka. Jake Schuljak. Harold Sevems return. The boys saw plenty of action and should be ready to really shine next year. Never to be forgotten will bo such wins as in the South Shore double overtime game, when Dick Beison s two free throws counted; as in the Washington 60-57 thriller that will go down ip history as the greatest Rider comoback. and the Whiting 61-60 game that was won in the remaining one-half second. Such losses will be long remembered too. as in the Froebel game 44-43; the sectional loss to Hammond High. 40-37. Then we will also recall how we yelled to raise the score in the South Bend game which finally ended 75 to 61. a new mark for points scored in one game. Thanks go to the fine coaches. Walker and Ruanski for making the team what it was. Thanks to the team, to. for the memories of tasty cokes after games, tourna- ment dreams and a thousand and one thrills.

Amid flying cinders, dust and spiked shoes, you can make out the form of the track men on the run. The team this year shows promise of being strong, well balanced and organized for strenuous competition. Keith fohnson. John Popka. Ugo Arrighi. and Gene Kuklinski are four of the outstanding men this season. Those boys, however, receive ample support by such returning veterans as. A1 Lesniewski and Clyde Taylor in the 440. Louis Bielecki and Frank Paganelli in the dashes. Jim Wiley and Dave Nihiser in the hurdles. Jim Baccino in the mile run and John Visak in the pole vault. During the winter months the team moves inside the building for a short indoor track season, and then the approach of spring finds them practicing for the sec- tional. dty and state meets. Track is one of the oldest and greatest muscle-build- ing sports of the ages. Although most of the events depend on personal skill and ability, those such as the relays require the greatest amount of co-operation and team-work.
