In Memoriam Dedication Principal’s Message Seniors Activities Sports Advertising MR. BEMIS Superintendent Salem Schools, 1923-1943 The latter part of our last year in Salem High School was saddened by the departure from this life of our beloved Super- intendent of Schools, George M. Bemis. To all he was a cherished friend and the school children of Salem may well remember his kind advice and frieyidly attitude. IN MEMORIAM To the members of our class and faculty who have answered their country’s call, leaving with us memory of their courage, spirit, and devotion to the cause that we may remain free, this book is sincerely dedicated. DEDICATION JAMES J. MURRAY Principal Zo the Class of 1943 It is no easy task to write a message to the Senior Class graduating this year because the Class of 19 fS goes into a world suffer- ing from the greatest tragedy known to mankind . . . War. In full realization of the jeopardy which threatens the very basic foundation of our “ life , liberty and the pursuit of happiness many boys from your class are already in the armed services side by side with hundreds of boys from High Schools of our na tion. Many more will probably soon be called to serve. Girls in this Class of ' fS will do their share in defense plants or offices. In whatever capacity it may be yours to assume in life, you will soon appreciate more than ever before, the educational advan- tages which you have been privileged to acquire in Salem High School. Pursue some higher educational attainments, if possible, since the need for trained men and women becomes greater each successive year. Be brave and courageous, fulfill your obligations faithfully, be a credit to yourself, your family, your school and may God bless you. James J.

Younger, George J 51 Class History As many other classes have done before us we also look back at our four years in Salem High School. We, the class of 1943, went through the usual experiences which happen to all freshmen on the first days of their arrival at high school. The upperclassmen took full advantage of our inex- perience and sent us off to the wrong classes when we asked for directions. It was very common for one of us to turn up in the Gym, asking timidly when the physics class was going to begin. For two years we were considered underdogs by our upperclassmen, but when our junior year came around we were considered eligibles. In our junior year we elected as officers: President, Walter Mroz; Vice President, Grayce Fuller; Treasurer, Richard Mahoney, Secretary, Josephine Szufnar- owska. Under wise advisers we made our Junior Promenade an outstanding success socially and financially. All who went will never forget the beautifully decorated Gym filled with joyful couples dancing to the music of Shep Wolan. As seniors, highest in our school career, we elected the following able students as our class officers: President, Leonard St. Pierre; Vice President, Barbara Macaulay; Treasurer, Richard Mahoney; Secretary, Josephine Szuf- narowska. Our Senior Dance was what we thought the best in years. For this affair the Gym was transformed into a rainbow of colors with crepe paper streamers flashing from every corner to meet in a glare of color in the center of the Gym. Jack Fletcher’s orchestra provided the music for the many grace- ful couples. Our spring was taken up by our preparations for graduation. Al- though we were rushed for time we accomplished our tasks very well. Our most important task was our Yearbook which we hope will be remembered as the finest printed. All through our last days in Salem High School our thoughts were of graduation and what was to come afterwards. We also realized, however, that we were leaving the school and leaving our teachers who had been like second parents to us. As we are about to leave to take our place in the world we have heartfelt appreciation and the deepest gratitude for our school, our very capable faculty, our principal, Mr. James J. Murray, and our Vice principal, Mr. Peter F. Carbone. Valiantly serving their country in its hour of need our former class- mates are spread all over the globe. From the ice-bound ports of Alaska to the sunny scenes of Australia, they have taken their place in the ranks of all branches of our service. {52 } Class Officers President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Leonard St. Pierre Barbara Macauley Josephine Szufnarowski Richard Mahoney 53 } Student Council The purpose of the Student Council is to make a more perfect school and to create a better understanding between teacher and pupil. Much credit is due to Mr. Fallon, a member of the faculty, who has been of great assistance in helping the Council to maintain its high standard of service. Because of the war the council has been inactive this year, but they did have one meeting to elect the following officers: President, Grayce Fuller; Vice President, Walter Mroz; Secretary, Jane Da ' ton; Treasurer, Nevin Rock- well; Sergeant-at-arms, Robert Macarthy. ■( 56 f Movie Club The Movie Club is one of the youngest organizations at the High School. It was founded by Mr. Edward J. McCabe of the faculty in 1935. Moving pictures are taken of the school’s activities and shown to the members of the club, and followed by refreshments. The Movie Club looks forward with hope to a successful future to the members who graduate and also to those undergraduates. In the honor of those undergraduates the club has presented a ser- vice flag to the school with a star for every one in the service. This certainly is a very patriotic act and will long be remembered of the Movie Club. The officers are: President, Jean Locker; Vice President, Barbara Ward; Secretary, Shirley Fuller; Treasurer, Francis O’Rourke. 157 Advance Staff EDITORIAL HOARD Editor Associate Editor CALVIN GROVES CALISTA FOLSOM .ITERARY HOARD Senior Reporter JOSEPHINE SZUFNAROWSKA Exchange Editor PHYLLIS ROCK Junior Reporter JANE DALTON Art Editor JACQUELINE ROUSSEAU Sophomore Reporter ARTHUR DRISCOLL Circulation Manager Robert McCarthy Freshman Reporter RICHARD LEBEL Society Editor FLORENCE SUSHEL Athletic Editor RICHARD MAHONEY BUSINESS BOARD Advertising Manager ROBERT BUTLER Accountant DONALD GILMAN Advertising Staff ELEANOR MARRON LILLIAN HEENEY ARTHUR LAMPREY VELMA FINNISS ROBERT MEAGHER JOHN MEEHAN AUDREY FRYE SAUL AXELROD ISABEL SLIZGI FACULTY ADVISERS Literary Adviser Financial Adviser MISS LOUISE BARKER MR.

Through the efforts of this staff, the accounts of our High School were recorded. The task was not an easy one. Months of hard work, incessant typing, and ambitious collecting of material preceded publication. We feel that our efforts were certainly not wasted. With the help of the members of the faculty this book was pre- pared, through their untiring efforts and timely advice to them, and especially to our helpful adviser, Mr. Peter F. Carbone, we express our thanks and sincere appreciation. Soon we shall no longer be seniors but citizens of our country. The thrill and splendor of our high school days will forever live in the pages of this volume. Grayce Fuller Editor of Clubs U1 } Dramatic Club Activities for the year of 1943 were four one-act plays: The Broken Circle Three ' s a Crowd He Ain’t Done Right By Nell Elmer and the Love Bug These plays were a great success and awards were given to the best characterizations in each play. Adviser- Mr. Tellier Secretary and Treasurer Barbara Ann Gould 162 Red Cross Council President — Barbara Macauley Vice President — Nancy Ryder Secretary — Janet Doyle Treasurer — Shirley Ann Fuller This year the council really took the place of the Red Cross Club. The council, under the direction of Mrs. Upham (Miss Shannon) has rapidly progressed and includes one of the largest memberships of the clubs in the school. The girls have really been busy this year, not only taking First Aid and Home Nursing courses but also assisting the official Red Cross Chapter. At Thanksgiving and Easter they were busy making baskets for the Old Men’s and Old Ladies’ Homes and also for the Contagious Hospital. The Council held an afternoon dance at the first of the year which was a success and a good time enjoyed by all those present. An auction, to raise money for the “National Children’s Fund,” was also staged and all sorts of articles auctioned off. The motto of the Red Cross “I serve” is the key to the activities of the Club. 163 Art Club The Salem High School Art Club had a very successful year, under the direction of Mr. Rousseau of the faculty. During the year the club had a different project in art every month. One of these was outdoor sketching. Being taught to sketch on the blackboard correctly; many of the members were chosen to make various posters for the clubs in the home-rooms and study halls. Posters for the bulletin on each floor in the school were done in brilliant colors. The club held its meetings on every Friday afternoon at which the voluntary work was done by the members. The year closed with an exhibition in the art room of the work done entirely at the meetings of the club. The club received many favorable comments for its work and progress. The officers of the club were: President, Bernice LeBlanc; Vice Presi- dent, Ronald Cote; Treasurer, Kenneth Connolly; Secretary, Julia Georgelas; Jury, Calvin Groves, Robert Landry, Wilber Cobb; Exhibition Committee, Jacquelyn Rousseau, Helen Tarnonski, Ann Nichols. ■164 Orchestra The Salem High School Orchestra was organized under the direction of Claude Phillips in 1925. Due to the helpful co-operation of the Kiwanis Club several brass instruments are loaned free of charge to interested students who wish to play in the orchestra. The organization is very active. Rehearsals are held once a week after school, and credit is awarded to those students who participate in it. Under Mr. Phillips’ leadership the members receive an extremely important and valuable background in orchestral work. Each year the best qualified student is chosen to lead the orchestra at the school assemblies. In this way a valuable foundation of practice is laid for future work in musical attainments. At graduation three seniors receive from the Harris fund an award for proficiency in music. The award consists of three volumes pertaining to music appreciation. f 65 Geographical Club President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Frederic Simpson Richard Mahoney Josephine Szufnarowska Priscilla Begin The purpose of this club is to further the social and educational interests of the students. This club under the inspiring supervision of Mr. Charles Fairbanks has held many enjoyable socials this year. On April 14 they held a colorful fiesta to celebrate Pan-American day. Due to the present war situation this fine organization has been retarded, but it still has a large membership and is enjoyed by all the members. { 66 Latin Club Consuls Aediles Secretary Treasurer Jacqueline Rousseau Calvin Groves Jack McClosky Gertrude Fabiszewski Celeste Egan Jane Dalton Karl Patton The Latin Club has been in existence longer than any other organi- zation of its kind. It was founded in 1913. The club enables students interested in Latin to get together and express themselves freely. The purposes of the club is to increase the pupils’ interest in the classics and to strengthen friendships between these students. Many enjoyable meetings have been held and under the expert supervision of Miss Shearer the club has progressed rapidly. 167 Football Coach Captain Manager Robert W.

On top of this they played the toughest schedule in years. They did not click until the end of the year when they beat Peabody and gave stiff battles to Revere and Beverly. Despite the fact that they won only one game, the team of 1942 won the respect and admiration of their opponents, by their fighting spirit, determination and clean playing. 4 70 Lettermen Captain Lester Bates William Burns James Cahill John Cappucio Charles Damanis Norman Dion Hilary Dombrowski Philip Dooley Paul Doyle Henry Gagnon Edwin Juralewicz Edward Keenan Theodore Mielcanz Joseph McKay John Moran Joseph Morris Walter Mroz William Nolan George Osborne Sebastian Randazzo Francis Ryan Fred Sechowicz Leonard Shea Matthew Szpak Joseph Tassinari George Vallis George Williams Salvatore Zaraglia 71 Boys’ Basketball Coach Captain Manager Glenn O’Brien Robert Dylingowski Richard Duffy The basketball team of 1943 was one of the finest in the school’s history.

Only one veteran returns from last year’s team. It is expected, however, that Glenn O’Brien will turn out another fine team, as he has done many times in the past. Fifty boys reported for baseball and the following will represent the school in the Essex County League: Captain Bill Abbott Ed Jurdlewicz Bob Jean Tom Brennen Jack Doyle Ed Fabezewski Bren Conway Dan Driscoll Dick Duffy Jack Murphy Emil Belleau Ted Mielcarz Len Shea Les Keniff Emery Tanch Stan Kozlowski Norm April Ken St. Pierre Sam Shoer Louie Shoer {74 } Track Coach-Manager Captain Track William Burns James Cahill Paul Chase Charles Eldridge Calvin Groves Arthur Lamprey Thomas Lynn Jack McCloskey Robert Crowley Team Adolph Malinowski Richard Melanson Teddy Meier Joseph Morris Walter Mroz James Newell Sahag Sahagian Leo Sweeney The track team is starting late this year but they have the material for a good team.

At the end of the season the two Honor Varsity teams were chosen. Salem High con- ducted a girls’ basketball play. Teams from Beverly, Marblehead, and Dan- vers participated. A Round Robin Tournament was conducted during the af- ternoon, which was followed by lunch and dancing. Bowling and badminton classes were held during the winter season.
