We were just getting started on another school year, and had the pleasure of welcoming several hundred Central students. Then came the winter, and we were well under way. By the time spring came we were ready for the open air and the fresh taste of base- ball, track, outdoor activity, and finally com- mencement. As you turn these pages, you will see yourselves during these three seasons, in a panorama which will recall to you the days of study, play, and thought. We were sobered by the impending draft and the talk of war. But in many ways it was the happiest year of our lives. Why?-Within these pages lies the answer. Z5 X tl 'Lie :FQ Qi Q Wa xl.

Mrs. Dore and Mrs. Kidwell continue their never- ending job in the Business OH'ce, Probably most of us felt a little inferior when we first took notice of our senior high surroundings. Some of us began to assume re- sponsibility in activities, others made the athletic teams, many of us found ourselves on the Honor Roll, but in the main our first year was one of trial. Our teachers tried us to see how mature was our outlook towards studies, our counselors tried us to find if our sights were set high and if we had the ability to represent the school well in our last two years, our upper semester schoolmates tried us to determine if we would meet the standards they had already set, and we tried ourselves to see how much headway we could make in establishing ourselves as an energetic and willing part in the machinery of our school. ,QQ lf-' f 1' ' '12'i 3' 220-3 lst Row-P.

As a publication of student opinion and as a promoter and recorder of worthwhile school activities, the REPORTER played a definite part in school affairs during l950-5l. The literary staff-composed for the most part of students from journalism classes, with the exception of art editors and cadet and feature writers-during the first semester was one of the smallest of all REPORTER staffs. In the second half of the year it was increased to the unusually large number of 20. These staffs have endeavored to publish all the most im- portant news-a problem requiring much selection. Always there was an overflow for the four pages. It has tried to be by turns serious, entertaining, instructive, and always to stay within the bounds of good taste. Continually working toward these same goals were mem- bers ofthe business staff, whose problem it was to make the paper financially successful. Therefore, it might simply be said that the REPORTER- had a position to Hll and that it went about filling that posi- tion in a consistently high-spirited and honest manner.

From the first practice an attitude of hope and determination, which ripened into confidence prevailed In the Rider camp. Coach Labukas attributes much of this optimism to George Burch, who buoyed the team during practice and restored their confidence after the first loss. ln recognition of his efforts the team elected George captain after the season's end. In the first three weeks of the season Roosevelt was rewarded with two victories, gf over Martinsburg and Falls Church. A loss to Fairfax divided the wins. U Having already surpassed the record of the previous year, the Roughs were con- fident when they met Eastern. However, the city champs shut out the Riders, 20-O. Three serious inluries marred the game, the most notable being a strained back suf- fered by ltzy Friedman Roosevelt quarterback. Alva Griffin went out with a torn cartilage, and an Eastern player sustained a broken nose. Following their ways of winning then losing, the Riders snapped 'back with a win over Bell featured by the 85 yard run of John Pavlides, but Anacostia, or rather R. Do Leonibus Bobby Chatlin who scored three times, wrecked the Roughs in their next game, haw. ll ' M. Marcellino R. Smimers S. Garfinkle 19 ,X . far 51 A Q ru D in vi v .j M, , YL , .

Not only had the Roosevelt warriors lost badly to Anacostia the week before, but Coolidge was in the race for division honors, and was therefore pointing for Roosevelt in order to secure its position. Two first half fumbles set up Coolidge touchdowns, and it seemed that the thing which had plagued Roosevelt during previous games would beat them this time. However, a freak touchdown scored by Tony Grimaldi on the last play of the half put the Rough Riders back in the game. Grimaldi fumbled the pass from center, but picked up the ball and his momentum carried him across. The next TD came on a thirty-one yard pass from Big Bill Smith to Carroll Groomes in the third quarter. In the fourth period the deciding touchdown was scored on an end-around play by Joe Loewe. At that time the score stood 19-12. Another Coolidge TD brought the score to 19-18. But on the try for point, the Coolidge ball carrier, who attempted an end run, was caught short of the goal line, and shortly after the game ended, one of the biggest upsets in the Washington area during 1950. After the Coolidge victory it was natural that the Riders should suffer a letdown, and they finished their season with a loss to Tech, 25-O. However, this defeat did not mar the record of the Riders. From a team hoping only to keep down the score, the Riders turned into a team with offensive ideas. This eagerness to go forward not only improved the Rough's mark, but, since many of this year's stars will return next year, it gave evidence that 1951 will see fielded one of the city's best outhts. Returning will be the entire Hrst string backfield and many of the linemen. Another indication of a lift in Roosevelt football fortunes is the fact that four members of this year's aggregation rated all-high mention. Big Bill Smith was named to the first string, Joe Loewe made the second team, and George Burch and Dixon Hickman won honorable mention. Both Smith and Hickman will return next year. Another member of the Rider staff, who never put on a cleat, deserves credit too. He is manager Danny Davidson, whose conscientious efforts aided in keeping the players fit and the coaches on schedule. Of course, the maior credit goes to the coaches, Mr. Labukas and Mr. Amo. Mr. Labukas' careful consideration of the players and the schedule, plus his work with the backfield, payed off in a well-oiled and competent unit. Mr. Amo also played a leading role in the success of the Riders, for his work with the line, composed of boys like Burch, Marcellino and Tshondikidis, provided the bulwark behind which the backs functioned. Together Mr. Amo and Mr. Labukas turned out the most spirited, most capable team Roosevelt has seen in many years. From the very first day Mr. Labukas and Mr. Amo made the boys realize that football is a team effort, and that there are no stars unless the team operates as a unit. So successfully was this idea instilled in the players that Mr. Hardy Pearce, District Director of lnterscholastic Athletics, and our own Mr. Edgar Hardell, long associated with Roosevelt football and track, said at the annual football dinner: This is Roose- velt's greatest team. If the squad of 1951 can equal the spirit and drive of the 1950 outfit, then once again Roosevelt football fans can look forward to a coming season with a bright air of expectancy. W. Smith A.

National Honor Society The National Honor Society is an organization of students who have distinguished themselves in school by their character, their scholarship, and participation and leadership in extra-curricular activities. ln Roosevelt the semi-annual assembly, at which new members of the Allan Davis Chapter are an- nounced, is eagerly awaited by all students because of the traditional tapping ceremony. Those who are elected vow to continue their work, and to help their colleagues, in accord with the principles of the school. Among the activities of the Society in Roosevelt are counted the semestral tea for honor students, and the annual tests given to the members in which the top scorers receive scholarships. Regarded with great respect in our school, the Honor Society is an important part of our work and reward system. MARCH INDUCTEES lst Row-I. Aronofi, A. Strates, M. Mason, M. Lebowitz, J.

One of the largest organizations in school, the Dramatic Club, sponsored by Mrs. Ruth Smith, had over sixty members. The members learned make-up tricks and the technical aspects ofthe theater, and directed, and produced one-act plays. The club enioyed dress rehearsal presentations of all the stage productions of the Washington Area colleges. Its big event of the year was the staging of Georgie Porgie for the enioyment of the whole school. Y-TEENS lst Row--D. Underwood, N. Rountree, J. Handy, M. Pavlides, S. Wool, M. Silverstein, F.

In addition to regular charity work, such as sending chocolates overseas and entertaining orphans, the club at Roosevelt this year YOOK on the new proiect of visit- ing a home for the aged. Skits, auctions, bike rides, picnics, dancing and singing were only a few items on their pleasure roster. The Y-Teeners also took an active part in The Deans of Y-Teens, a city-wide radio program which discussed the problems of teenagers. The girls displayed their interests in world affairs by visiting the U. N. While in New York they saw plays and visited many famous landmarks. To develop mutual interests, many Wednesday afternoons were spent in listen- ing to authorities speak on choosing a college, behaving in public and dating.

Not only did it enjoy the wealth of over sixty members, but the enthusiasm and verve of the sixty made after-school French an extraordinary com- bination of fun and education. Le Cercle Francais was blessed with two native Frenchmen, and numerous others who for some inexplicable reason could speak the language. lt was Madame Girard's contention that the less one knew of French the more advanced he probably was in his study of the language. Every meeting was the occasion for an outsanding event. As the ROUGH RIDER went to press, a movie of the activities of the club had been made, Le Cafe de Paris had been staged in the armory, the international party had been made a success, and a fashion show had been held. Most responsible for the active participation and en- thusiastic planning was Madame Girard, who provided the incentive for the members' continued participation in the club. FRENCH CLUB 6010!

Cicero again took the Senate fioor and Caesar told about his campaigns- and advised on mili- tary strategy when the members acted out short plays. Members learned of Rome's contribution to modern civilization. The Latin Club proved that Larin is not a dead language. Instead, it is very much alive, as any club member can tell you. lst Row-M.

The club, sponsored jointly by Mrs. Adams, Miss Owen, and Mr. Feldman, offered 'to the students interested in science the opportunity to gain information about matters that were not discussed in the classroom. The refraction of light, fungus growth, chemicalization of plants, and the like were topics for discussion on club programs. With such topics on tap, the attendance was al- ways large, and the Science Club continued this year as one of the most active clubs in Roosevelt. 35, 'L.,'Q'i lst Row-S. Rudolph, S. Glaser M.

Aside from its regular meetings, the club produced the winner in the Roosevelt Voice of Democracy. Contest, held several assemblies for the school, was the first school to broadcast on the new series of Junior Town Meeting programs, sent ten of its members to the George Washington students' con- ference, and took part in other activities about school and Washington that furthered its standing. After many years in Roosevelt as a history and government teacher, and able sponsor of the Discus- sion Club, Mrs. Susie Palmer left her post here for a similar one at Western High School. Her interest in the club was one of the factors in making it as in- fluential and active as it is today. Her place was taken by Mrs. Edith Koiouharoff, who sponsored the Voice of Democracy Contest in Roosevelt, and headed the Broadcasters' Guild at Central. lst Row-E. Julius, l. Aronoff, P.

We now found ourselves called upon to get better grades, to participate actively in school affairs, and to share more responsibility than ever before. With our increased responsibility came greater free- dom. Our teachers let us have more rein in deciding methods of study, we found ourselves in con- spicuous positions in activities and sports. The change from the pre- vious years was so startling that we might have token ourselves too seriously had it not been for the seniors. They kept us in place and reminded us that they still were the kingpins. But when the seniors graduated it was our duty to be worthy successors to their achievements. With full awareness of our task we turned another corner and faced our goal. nr' 214-5 lst Row-P. Stathopoulus, E. Robinson, E. Peake, E. Rosenberg, C Thomasson, E. Bonavita. 2nd Row-C.

On this year's schedule were speedball, hockey, basketball, volleyball, badminton, and baseball. Throughout the fall the girls did their best at guarding field goals, but when winter came, with its sleet and cold, and drove them indoors, basketball soon came into the limelight, only to be replaced by volleyball. Finally spring came, and our athletes shed their flannel shirts and took to the stadium. There they limbered up their muscles with baseball, while for those girls who preferred the indoors, there was badminton.

Chaos reigned. Turning in the locks and books, clean- ing lockers, renting caps and gowns, and paying dues for the Prom, supper, and an endless number of et cetera, was only a small part of our eleventh hour rush. The graduating class was an unusual and outstanding one. Among its num- ber were the president of the Honor Society, editor-in-chief of the REPORTER, vice-president of the Student Council, leaders in many school activities and constant contributors to the prestige and honor ot Roosevelt. Its accomplishments, both in and out of school, set a goal toward which other classes could strive. Y 3 L4 ' iv ' gif re , Q. fi 'Rinse fx 5 -lg-XL1' ' ,li . r -. If 52' if 1 WWW .1 fb!

L, Kohr, Commanding Officer, Naval Air Reserve Training Unit, Anacostia, D. C., Mr. Brown and Captain Brooks discuss the Naval Air Reserve's training Program for high school students, during the visit to the Station, December, 1950. We, the members of the Roosevelt High School Cadet Corps, are proud to review the year passing before us. lt has not been one of outstanding good fortune, nevertheless we have progressed, and progress will eventually eliminate error. Distinguished from past years, we have frequently been the guests of local military establishments where we received in- struction on practical military subiects. At the present time it appears inevitable that we may be called upon to serve our country. If such a request is made we will unquestionably ac- cept the challenge. As Cadets we feel that we have been in- troduced into the fundamentals of a life we may someday be forced to accept. We feel this to be invaluable. Months of sacrifice, practice and preparation have preceded our en- trance into the competitives. Our days with the Fifths have been both stormy and bright, but we feel that we have ac- complished much, and that our memories will help us to go on to further victories. CAPTAIN EDWARD W.

It gave us a chance to expand our horizons, taught us dis- cipline and the meaning of time pressure, and brought us into closer contact with Roosevelt, its customs, and its ideals. The ROUGH RIDER of l95l is a chronicle of our activities during the past year. We feel that the chronicle is faithful in letter and spirit. If you have found that this ROUGH RIDER portrays accurately the spirit of Roosevelt during the past year, then we have succeeded in our purpose. the dwzdlime! AGENTS P. Mass, J. Wheatley, P.

For many years the Alumni Association has been an energetic and loyal force representing the school throughout Washington and the rest of the country. An important feature of this year's Association is the establishment of an Honorary Membership Board, which inducts members who have not graduated from Roosevelt. The board, headed by Mr. James P. Dulin, reviews the records of those who have contributed out- standing service to Roosevelt, and recognizes their efforts with an honorary membership in the Association. The most important social function of the Alumni Association is the annual banquet, where acquain- tances are renewed, entertainment by students and alumni is presented, and elections are held. At the banquet this year over lOO attended, once again demonstrating the loyalty of the alumni to Roosevelt, and their desire to remain a strong, active, cohesive force in Roosevelt and community life.
