Its staff, striving earnestly toward the perfection of every detail, has utilized eveiy means to make it colorful and interesting. Novel arrangement of pictures and clever camera shots have been employed in the production of the annual that should delight every student of Sandy. The class proposes to give the reader a graphic picture of student life. From formal adminstration to the most informal activities, from student productions to the basketball team, the camera man and the reporters have traveled in quest of representations of Sandy’s children at work and play. However, the 1944 Flambeau is more than a mere presentation of this year’s activities for your present enjoyment. Today the remembrances of a pleasant year of school life are still vivid in your memory. Bruises you received at a skating party or the exciting moments at the close of the Brockway game are not easily forgotten. But, as the years roll along, the sharpness of these imprints will soon wear away. Therefore, it is hoped that you will employ this yearbook as your means to remember the events of the 1943-1944 school year. May it re-awaken the fun you have had at club meetings, the excitement of many tense basketball games, the memory of your class associations, the enjoyment of the various assembly programs, and the never-to-be-forgotten school friends that you have made. Whether or not the class has been successful in its purpose and portrayal, is for each of you to judge, but let’s all hail a new milestone for our school—1944 and a year teeming with vivacious life. CONTENTS •ADMINISTRATION •CLASSES •ACTIVITIES •ATHLETICS DEDICATION We, the members of the Senior Class, wish to dedicate this book to those boys who have answered the highest calling, that of serving their country. We are proud of these boys whom we have known and with whom we have associated during the last four years. These boys are sacrificing their education and privileges to protect those things we hold dear and take so much for granted. Let us pray that these boys might soon finish their job and come home to stay. To the following boys the Senior Class dedicates this book: AUGUSTINE ESOLA ROBERT KOTZBAUER ELLERY STOUGHTON EDWARD LEPIONKA WILLARD BAILEY HAROLD HOOVER RICHARD LANE ’1U ADMINISTRATION . . . INTERESTED TEACHERS AND DEVOTED ADMINISTRATORS COMBINE THEIR EFFORTS TO PROVIDE EACH STUDENT WITH A BACKGROUND, RICH AND COMPLETE, IN ORDER THAT HE MAY TAKE HIS PLACE IN SOCIETY. COMMAND OF FUNDAMENTAL PROCESSES BECOMES THE NECESSARY GROUNDWORK FOR VOCATIONAL INSTRUCTION, WHILE CIVIC EDUCATION PREPARES HIM TO ASSUME THE DUTIES OF CITIZENSHIP AND GIVES HIM BREADTH OF VISION AND UNBIASED VIEWPOINT. To the members of the Board of Education, the student body expresses its whole-hearted appreciation for their cooperation and sympathetic interest in the school program and in student activities. It is through their efforts that changes are made in the educational program. These men are constantly on the alert to keep up with the ever-changing educational standards. The members of the board receive no compensation for their time and energy except the satisfaction of knowing that they are helping to mould the lives of the future citizens of America. Sandy Township is very fortunate to have such civic-minded men who have such a keen interest in both the school, the pupil, and the community.

Senior Class Song We leave old Sandy High School on the hill top, The grandest school that anyone ever knew. Today we’re leaving dear old Sandy High School With tear dimmed eyes we whisper a sad adieu. All we seniors are sighing, ’Cause we’re going away, But the last words we leave you Are that we’ll be back again some day. And some day on the hill at Sandy High School, I don’t know when, but we’ll meet again I know. God bless our friends we left at Sandy High School. Good-bye for now, we Seniors all must go. Tune: BY THE RIVER OF THE ROSES Words by: TONY INGRO, MICKEY ELNISKI CLASS HISTORY A brief review of our class since its debut in the Fall of ’40. As Freshmen, we chose the following for our high school career: Class Motto -Class Colors -Class Flower - Do more; wish less - Red and White Red Rose Our officers were: President - - - - -Vice-President -Secretary -Treasurer -Class Reporter -Athletic Council - - -Assembly Committee Class Advisor - Nicholas Elniski - Richard Lane Clara Lyons Elsie Boyer Willard Bailey - John Hockin - Larry Sloppy Miss Flower Although not outstandingly active this year, the members of our class took part in the Boys’ Glee Club, the Girls’ Glee Club, and basketball. Our officers of the Sophomore year were: President Vice-President « Secretary -Treasurer -Class Reporter -Athletic Council Class Advisor - Richard Lane Alice Colley Clara Lyons Elsie Boyer - Larry Sloppy John Hockin - Mr. Robinson and the Girls’ Glee Club. A large number of the boys in our class belonged to the Boys’ Glee Club. The following were our Junior class officers: President - - - - Robert Kotzbauer Vice-President - - Charles Case Secretary - - - Clara Lyons Treasurer - - - Elsie Boyer Class Reporter - Willard Bailey Athletic Council John Hockin and Richard Fleck Class Advisor ----- Miss Kuntz Assistant Class Advisor - Mrs. Proesl We were kept very busy this year. The first matter of business was the choice of the class ring, which was different from the standard school ring. This event was followed on March 19 by “Hot Water Hero”, the annual Junior play which was a decided triumph. The Junior-Senior Prom on May 13 culminated the year’s activities. Our present Senior class officers are: President Robert Kotzbauer, later Richard Fleck Vice-President -Secretary -Treasurer -Class Reporter -Athletic Council Hoover, Lillian Class Advisor Johnson, and Donald Clyde Clara Lyons Elsie Boyer Willard Bailey - Harold Richard Fleck Mrs. Mackin The Fall of ’41 renewed class activity and our classmates were now taking an active part in the activities of the school. Dick Lane had a place on the varsity basketball squad. Many of the girls were members of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y 1943-’44 brought the final lap in the trek toward graduation. The yearbook, the class play, the ordering of name cards and invitations, Move-Up Day, and commencement ended the last year of our high school career. CLASS OFFICERS () ,«A O.' RICHARD FLECK ‘Dick’ -A? Dick has proved himself a leader and an addition to the spirit of the student body. His leadership was shown as class president when Robert Kotzbauer left for the Navy. In athletics he served as Athletic Council treasurer and as a member of varsity basketball. Dick was also successful as an actor in both the Junior and Senior Class plays, as Skelton, and emcee in Radio Hi-Lites. DONALD CLYDE “Duck” Don is really a happy-go-lucky person. He never lets anything worry him, we never hear him complaining, for he cheerfully goes through life laughing at care. His subtle wit and humor are characteristic of him. He has a keen interest in major league sports and mushball. Don is a pre-flight student and spends most of his leisure time in the “shop”. CLARA LYONS “Klaura” May we present one of our most active Seniors. Clara has been class secretary during our four years in high school. She had the lead in both of our class plays. She has been an active member of the Tri-Hi-Y and an efficient business manager of the Flambeau. Clara has been of great assistance to Mrs. Brady, as student reasurer of the Central Treasury. ELSIE BOYER “Els” During our four years in high school, Elsie has held the position of class treasurer. She has done a fine job as editor-in-chief of the Flambeau, and she has been an efficient librarian. Els is planning to join the Cadet Nurse Corps. Because of her cheerfulness, geniality, and ability, we are certain that she will make an excellent nurse. EVA AKIMENKO “Eva” Eva is on of our industrious Seniors from Room 6. Eva is a willing worker and she does her work exceptionally well. She is noted for her good typing. We shall always remember Eva. Her sweet disposition and her ability to meet a serious situation promptly will enable her to search for even more serious problems and furthermore, to solve them. MARIE ARVICKSON “Marie” Marie is a diminutive member of the Senior Class. She seems quiet and reserved most of the time, but to her real friends, her own individual ways have endeared her. She spend some of her time working in the office and she has done a fine job. She deserves much success and happiness in the future. DOROTHY BOWES “Dot” Dorothy is seen climbing the hill each morning at 8:35. She takes her lessons seriously and gets good results. Since she can write shorthand very well, she will probably make a good secretary-—to some lucky person. Dot needs a watch because in the middle of every class you hear, “Hey, what time is it?” DORIS BUNDY “Doris” The best way to describe Doris is to say her ideals are of the hghest and best. She is studious and her strong intellect compels our admiration. Her diversion is reading anything she can get her hands on. Commercial work in particular is her field, and she is known for her business-like manners. Doris plans to go to college to become a C. P. A. DOLORES CARMELLA “Jackie Everyone who attends our basketball games is familiar with Jackie, for she has been a cheerleader for the past two years. Jackie is the girl who enjoys a good time all the time. We’d put our money on her to win any talking marathon anywhere. In spite of her vivacity, she has a strong and unusual fondness for poetry. RUTH CARNEY ‘R‘uth” Ruth is a quiet and a studious member of our class. She is well known for her singing—that rare quality with which she may reach heights and likewise depths. It may be the tune of her success. Ruth has capably filled the positions as president of the Tri-Hi-Y and treasurer of the Library Club. Her future is predicted by the diamond ring she is now wearing. ALICE COLLEY “Rusty” We can say many nice things about the girl with the titian tresses. Rusty has a lovely disposition and the ability to make friends as well as to keep them. A pleasing personality, ability as a student, and varied activities characterize her. Last year she was the student director of Radio Hi-Lites. She has been a loyal member of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y and the Flambeau staff. BETTY COOK “Betty” Betty is going to be one of our future “angels of mercy”. She has a personality and a winning smile which will go a long way to help her patients recover speedily. Even though Betty is shy and quiet, she has maintained her own among us. We sincerely hope that her future friends and teachers enjoy her friendship as we have in the last four years. SARA COOK “Cookie” Believe it or not! We have found one of the “fairer sex” who hasn’t much to say. Perhaps Sara is only quiet at times, though. She is both sweet-tempered and studious. She has a keen sense of humor, clever wit, attractive appearance, together with a sympathetic nature which we think will bring her success in any field. WILLARD DIVINS ‘Divie” If one sees a “wreck of a car” around, he may be certain that Divie is present. His chief interest is tinkering with and dealing in old cars, machinery, and model airplanes. He is very easy going and not overly fond of school work. Divie has enlisted in the Army Air Corps. We predict that his wit and industry in mechanical fields will take him places. DORRIS DUNLAP “Dorris” If someone wants something done, Dorris is never too busy to do it. She is a planner, a worker, and a helper. In addition to these qualities, she is always well prepared for her classes. She was the editor of the “Sandy Newsette”. Dorris is serious, but behind this seriousness lurks a fun-loving spirit. Dorris intends to become a physical education teacher. LOIS DUNLAP “Lois” Lois is one of the “shining lights” in the commercial department. Her ability to concentrate and desire to be occupied by some worth-while piece of work are only a few of her many attributes. She never gets discouraged in her work because she never lets it get ahead of her. We know she will accomplish anything she attempts. GLADINE EDINGER “Gladine” Lessons don’t bother Gladine. Life is too short, and there are many other interests. She wins us with her frank and merry ways. However, all work and no play would tend to make Gladine a dull girl; therefore, she finds time for both. She is always ready to give up that which will benefit someone else; we are sure this attitude will bring her success. NICHOLAS ELNISKI “Mickey” Mickey is the wit of our class. He has a very keen mind, but does not believe in wasting time on studies that do not appeal to him. He also boasts a winning way with the girls. In his Junior year he was emcee for Radio Hi-Lites. This year he has won a letter in basketball, and he helped make our Senior play a success. AUGUSTINE ESOLA “Gusie” Gusie’s motto is that pupils should be seen and heard—especially heard. He was industrious and interested in his work. Gusie was an efficient stage manager for our Junior play. This year he was a member of the varsity basketball squad. In school, his hobby was building model airplanes. Now, as a member of the Army Air Corps, he is learning to pilot real planes. MARY HARMIC “Mary” She is not so quiet as she may seem. One thing we must not omit in connection with Mary’s name is the ever ready attitude she maintains. During her four years at Sandy she has proved herself a good student and a willing worker. We believe her to be one possessing great facilities and feel sure that she will make use of her abilities. JANET HARVEY “Janet” Janet is one of our librarians from Room 4. She is always ready and willing: to help pupils in the library. Janet is one of the most dependable girls in our class and very agreeable in disposition. She is also a faithful basketball fan. We hear Janet wants to be a beautician. We wish you luck, Janet! HAROLD HOOVER “Hudge” At anytime in our high school career that we needed a business manager, we always turned to Hudge. He was business manager for both of our class plays. He was also business manager of the Flambeau until the time he left for the Navy. Such business efficiency should prove of great value in the future. Smooth sailing, Hudge! ARYL HOYT “Aryl” Aryl is one of our girls who became a member of our class the first semester of this year. She comes from Penfield. Her sweet disposition and winning smile have made a place for her in the hearts of al of us. Her hours are seldom idly spent. As a secretary, she will be an asset to any office. MARY EMMA HOYT “Mary Emma” Mary Emma joined our merry throng last semester. During her brief stay, her congenial spirit has made her a friend to all of us. She seems to be serious in all her undertakings and never gets discouraged. Her good humor is contagious. She has been a valuable addition to our class. Hearty wishes from the Class of ’44, Mary Emma. ANTHONY INGRO “Tony” May we present the “Lone Ranger” from Room 6. Tony is our entertainer at noon time, for he keeps the girls busy singing to the popular songs he plays on the piano in the auditorium. His favorite diversion is learning to play current songs. Tony is one of the nonchalant members of our class; he is always calm and collected. MAXINE JOHNSON LILIAN JOHNSON “Queen UV Lil seems to be the scribe of our class for she is the secretary for both the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y and the Athletic Council. She can either be serious or ludicrous as proved by her interpretation of “Godiva” in the Senior Play. Each Thursday, Lil helps Mr. Malasky keep an accurate check on the total amount of defense stamps and bonds sold. ‘Max” Max is known around school as the ‘‘School Historian”. She is just full of laughter and the joy of living. She has been an ardent basketball fan and a loyal member of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y. We are told that she has her serious moments in the commercial classes. At the present time, her main interest is in “Brooks”. PETER KELEGE “Pete” Pete is the camera addict in our class. He delights in taking pictures when one least suspects it. As a result, he has a large collection of pictures and personalities around school. He capably portrayed character roles in both the Junior and Senior plays. Pete’s chief interest seems to center on aviation, for he has enlisted as a cadet in the Army Air Corps. EDWARD LEPIONKA “Edge” “Edge”, as he is known to his friends, is a member of Uncle Sam’s Navy. During the time he has been with us he made many friends. He is well known for his accordion playing ability. We hand him a bouquet for this accomplishment. Edge’s favorite hobby in school was sleeping in English class. Clear sailing to you, Edge. DOROTHY LIDDLE ’‘Dollie’1 A blush and dimples characterize Dolly. She enters into the life of the school with her whole heart and soul. Dolly is quiet, but she has plenty to say to those who know her. Willingness to get an education has prompted Dolly to come many miles. We hope that this foundation will help her to achieve success in her chosen calling. MARIE McLAUGHLIN “Sunny” That Marie is active and vivacious is at once apparent—take a look at those dimples. In describing Marie, one might say that she is little, lovely, pert, and petite. She and her friend, Gladine, seem to have an aversion to a five-day school week. We have been told her ambition is to raise her typing speed. SHIRLEY MINNS “Shurl” Shurl is the plodder of our class; consequently, she seldom comes to classes unprepared. She is called the “yodeling cowgirl” because she is always mimicing the various cowgirls on the radio. Shirley has been a faithful member of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y. Last year she played a character role in our Junior Play. She has chosen nursing for her profession. ■ d FLORA MORRIS “Flossy” “Don’t judge a package by its size”, can easily be applied to Flossy. She is a little girl with a lot of pep and a big heart. She seldom expresses herself, but when she does it is worth hearing. When it was time to collect “ads” for the Flambeau, Flora did an excellent job. She has chosen nursing as her career. DORIS MYERS “Dorie” Home Ec seems to be Dorie’s favorite subject. Furthermore, she puts her knowledge into practical use. In the Home Ec Fashion Revue, Dorie modeled a very chic dress. Her kind disposition and cordial friendliness help make her a favorite. Dorie has been an active member of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y and the Home Ec Club for the past two years. EILEEN SALADA “Salanie” Nature has been kind to Eileen, giving her an attractive personality and the ability to learn readily. She is one of our star cheerleaders. Salanie had roles in both of our class plays. She is also a member of the Flambeau staff and the Tri-Hi-Y. This list of activities prove that she is both energetic and resourceful. BELLE MARIE SCHMIDT “Smitty” Smitty is one of our most important members. With her cordial manner and friendly spirit, she is welcome in any crowd. According to Smitty, the greatest inventor is the man who invented sleep. She holds the position as treasurer of the Girls’ Tri-Hi-Y. For some reason or other she seems to have kept her plans for the future a secret. PAUL SNYDER “Pug” Paul became a member of our class last fall when he transferred from DuBois. His stay has not been long, but long enough for us to learn that he is a very congenial classmate. Pug earned a letter in varsity basketball. One may judge his intellectual ability by his scholastic standing. He has energy and ideas— we know that we will go far. JANE TRUDE “Snood” If there is a word which we can’t spell, we ask Jane for she is our champion speller. Last year she was awarded a bond on the WCED spelling bee in recognition of her spelling ability. Her report card shows that she is not only proficient in spelling but in all of her other subjects as well. However, she suffers from an affliction—“talking fever”. ELAINE WAGGETT “Elaine” “Silence is golden”, but unlike most women, Elaine talks enough; however, she always says something. She has shown marked enthusiasm in her studies and activities. Elaine is known for her ability as a grammarian. She displayed her ability as a character actress in our Junior play. Elaine intends to join the Cadet Nurse Corps. JANET WATSON “Netta” Netta is a “Commercial light” who delights us with her pep and humor. If we want to know “what’s new in the news”, we ask Netta, for she has a thorough knowledge of the world about her. However, she still finds time to enjoy the lighter side of life. Dancing is her hobby, and she did a colorful rhumba number in Radio Hi-Lites. Such versatility should be an asset. MARIE YEAGER “Murie” Take pleasant smile; add a neat appearance; mix with a quiet and unassuming manner; flavor with courtesy; then add industry and persistent effort in school work - now combine an interest in school activities; and stir in a few grains of reserve and dignity. The result is Marie, a capable and distinguished member of the Class of ’44. t. EDITH YOAS “Edith” If A’s were stars, Edith’s sky would be filled with a dazzling light. She takes her lessons as a matter to think about seriously; however, she still finds time for all the school activities. Edith has unusual artistic ability. Because of this talent, she was art editor of the school paper and the Flambeau. Edith plans to become a commercial artist.

We shall tell one of his experiences as told to us. “One day while walking through the Dark Jungles of Africa, I was attacked by the most ferocious of the panthers of the jungle. He pounced upon me from a tree and the fight was on. Fortunately, I was carrying the pistol I had received by sending in three Ralston box tops and a quarter to the Dick Foran Club. I held the beast off with one hand and released my Straight Shooter pistol from its holster and fired upon the panther with the other. The animal fell to the ground. I will always be thankful that I sent in those three box tops and a quarter. I use nothing but the best on my expeditions.” So ends our story. Mr. Elniski is remaining in this town for a short visit. He will then go to Hollywood, where he will make a picture, “Bring ’Em Back Anyway” or “We’re Not Particular”.

Any inquiry as to what this was all about would have brought forth an excited exclamation, “Prom favors, of course!” For several weeks preceding their gala dance, the Juniors planned, pasted, in favors, dance programs, and decorations. “It doesn’t seem more than a few weeks ago that we returned to school as ‘full-fledged’ Juniors,” mused John Tabone as he continued cutting the white squares of paper. “Why, I can still remember the first meeting of the year when the Junior Class reelected the officers of the previous year,” said Betty Scott. “They certainly merited reelection,” added John. As Jim Peters walked into Room 11 to get a ruler, he saw Frank Ogershok pacing the floor looking very troubled. The other pupils immediately swamped their president with questions in order to discover what was troubling him. “Next Friday is Move-Up-Day, and I’m trying to write the speech I’ll have to make about our class,” Frank informed them as he looked helpless from one to another. “The only trouble you should have,” ejaculated Jim Lane, “is determining where to begin, because there’s so much we Juniors have done.” “Why not tell about the boys who represented our class on the basketball team?” suggested Yvonne Smolukas. “Norman Brown, Jim Carmella, Paul Deasey, and Frank Ogershok saw action while the rest of us cheered from the sidelines. Our team was inexperienced this year, but these four veteran Juniors will form the nucleus of next year’s squad.” “And please don’t forget that Enid Place and I were regular cheerleaders,” begged Rosella Ogershok. “You can describe how elated we were when we received our class rings which we had ordered the previous year,” ventured Hettie Fritz. The others nodded their heads in approval and Clarabelle Thunberg emphatically demanded that he put in a good word for the Tri-Hi-Y. Teddy Schaffer diverted the subject from the girls’ club to Radio Hi-Lites. “Tell them what Jim Peters did in Radio Hi-Lites as ‘Mr. Agony’,” he stated, “and describe the clever skits of the other Juniors in that program.” “Say, have you forgotten our class play?” said George Walls. “Cooperation was the real keynote of our excellent class play, and all of the actors really lived the lines of “Dead of the Night!” “Wind up this wonderful speech of your with a description of the equally wonderful Junior Party, Frank,” John advised, and Bessie Kranitz supplemented with glowing phrases which perfectly described the dance. “Thanks a lot for helping me,” said the president. “We certainly have accomplished a great deal this year.” As the decorations were being laid away, the dismissal bell rang. Just before all the Juniors returned to their homerooms Frank said, “Let’s look forward to our last year in high school, and let’s resolve to make it the best of all!” Character, and Scholarship Atkinson, Fred Brooks, Burton Bundy, Dorothy Brown, Norman Carmella, James Clinton, Gloria Clyde, Jack Connor, Marie Deasey, Paul DeLarme, Mary Alice Divins, Alta Duttry, Bernice Duttry, Margaret Fritz, Hettie Graham, Grant Harvey, Fay Heberling, Helen Hill, Calvin Hoover, Robert Korb, Olive Kitchener, Shirley Kranitz, Bessie Lane, James Lott, Marian Lines, Helen Monella, Lillian Murray, Harvey Myers, Jean Ogershok, Rosella Peters, James Peterson, Leoda Place, Enid Puyda, Vivian Quarando, Ralph Rafferty, Lawrence Reasinger, Betty Reasinger, Marian Reasinger, Rachel Rosio, George Schaffer, Theodore Scott, Betty Shaffer, Betty Shenkle, Doris Shugarts, Thomas Smolukas, Yvonne Smith, Ralph Solida, Donald Spessert, Mable Sprague, Mildred Stahlnecker, Madge Staughton, Lenore Tabone, John Thunberg, Clarabelle Waggett, Althea Walls, Dorothea Walls, George Wightman, Winston Williams, Thomas Wining, Shirley Sophomores - Develop, Class Motto Class Colors Class Flower THE SOPHOMORE CLASS - - -.............We strive to win ..........-............Blue and Gold ------------ - White Rose President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Athletic Council Class Reporter Class Advisor Lois Bundy Katherine Schoch Madolene Molnar - Betty Mowrey Loretta Calvert Edward Misiewicz Miss Violet M. Ellis Last year when we lowered the gangplank for a three-month shore leave there were eighty-two of us. This year as we again drop anchor for another leave from our studies we find that our number has been reduced to sixty-four. Even though we were a smaller group this year we did our best to help our high school. Our first project after our organization meeting was the sponsoring of an all-school party and dance. This gathering was held at the Y. M. C. A. on October 29th. This was the first affair of this type to be held in the past several years. The proceeds were turned over to the class treasury. Another thing we are very proud of is the fact that Room 12, a Sophomore homeroom, won the Athletic Association Membership Drive. Our next outstanding activity was the production of a class play, the first Sophomore Class Play in the history of the school. The play, “His Name Was Aunt Nellie”, was presented on December 10th, and it was acclaimed a big success. Our last major project of the year was the collection of pictures and newspaper articles about servicemen from Sandy. The material was put into a Sandy Servicemen’s Scrapbook, which is on display in the library. Many of our class are very active in extra-curricular activities, and all of us support school activities faithfully and enthusiastically.

At first they were baffled, belated, and bewildered by an unending chorus of an “oh so strict” superintendent, “a severe and study” principal, “night-work loving” teachers, and “me, myself, and I” upperclassmen. It took a few weeks of real “breaking in” before they knew just what to expect next. However, the Freshmen have now become acclimated to their new surroundings. Another year, another successful milestone, passed by the “greenies” as the school term faded into memories of gayety and excitement as well as achievement. Disregrading insults and snickers, this year’s Freshmen organized their enthusiastic class into one that showed its dependability and zeal through studies, sports, assembly programs, and clubs. The “freshies” worked hard to maintain a high standard of grades and with amazing results. They particularly enjoyed reading “The Merchant of Venice” in Miss Ellis’ English class, and the study of the present war problems in Miss Brown’s civics class. They labored diligently in Latin class, and did excellent work in mathematics. They were amazed at the wonders of science which were unfolded to them in the experiments which Miss Kuntz performed. The girls learned crafts and culinary art in the home economics classes. From their beginning as pupils in Sandy High School, the Freshmen showed leadership and originality. When the time came for election of officers, the Freshmen had a mock soap box campaign. Guy Graham was elected as class president and he fulfilled the responsibilities of his office to the “nth” degree. The class prexy, Belva Sturm, and Imogene Scull wrote articles for the “Sandy Newsette”. Although they were not very well versed in the art of entertaining they got right into the swing of things with a delightful all-school party at the Y. M. C. A. in the spring. Basketball profited bv the undeniable qualifications of several hoopsters. William Schmidt was a member of the varsity, while the junior varsity team claimed several masculine members of this class who have high hopes for membership on a future varsity team. This class was represented by William Cornelius, Guy Graham, Ronald Lyons, Jack McCauslin, Charles Pifer, Donald Shenkle, and Franklin Shenkle on the junior varsity. The Freshmen won an inter-class basketball game from the Sophomores. The basketball manager and the assistant manager were Guy Graham and Carl Divins, both members of the class of 1948. Along the athletic vein their other interest was mush ball. In the fall, when the Freshmen met the Sophomores in inter-class mushball, the underclassmen emerged as victors. The fairer sex of this class was well represented in the Home Economics Club. The Freshmen surely proved that they were ready to become upperclassmen when they supported school functions so enthusiastically. The two Freshmen homerooms, rooms eicrht and thirteen, should be commended on the staunch support which they gave the Fourth War Loan Drive. Marjorie Gilbert made an awe-inspiring madonna in the Christmas tableau. Many Freshmen had clever acts in “Radio Hi-Lites”. . . Move-Up Day saw the Freshme become full-fledged Sophomores, at last, even though their induction was enough to deflate any poor student’s ego. A great deal is expected of this class after such a grand beginning.

THE ROUTINE OF FORMAL CLASSES IS PLEASANTLY INTERRUPTED BY THE WELL-ROUNDED ACTIVITY PROGRAM WHICH PROVIDES ABUNDANT OPPORTUNITY FOR INDIVIDUAL EXPRESSION. VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS DEVELOP DESIRABLE TRAITS OF CHARACTER IN ALL WHO PARTICIPATE AND PREPARE THEM FOR WORTHY HOME MEMBERSHIP IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. ALL GROUPS DIRECT THEIR EFFORTS TOWARD ONE MAJOR OBJECTIVE — PROFITABLE USE OF LEISURE TIME, AT HOME AND SCHOOL. FLAMBEAU STAFF The Record of the Year's Events Salesmen from engravers, printers, photographers, binders, and cover companies kept the editor and business manager in a dither until fall. Then, Elsie Boyer came and started things going. Pete needed a flashbulb. Photographs wouldn’t reduce to the right proportions. Where was the copy? How much money has been collected? Was the yearbook going to have a hard cover? Would the yearbook ever be published? These clouds of despair were whisked away when the staff members began to take their work seriously. The amount of advertisements which Alice Colley, Clara Lyons, Eileen Salada, and Belle Marie Schmidt turned in over a week-end was amazing. When Harold Hoover left for the Navy Clara Lyons capably took over his work as business manager. Lillian Johnson and Richard Fleck handled the circulation from start to finish, while Edith Yoas was running hither and yon trying to find items for the club write-ups. The art work, color schemes, and cover selection have been under the vigilance of Edith Yoas and Willard Divins. The fingers of our typists worked many a long, weary hour pounding out the copy so the book would be out on time. Just how the work was completed is still a mystery, but the fact remains that the money has been collected. What success the yearbook enjoys is in large measure due to the work of the staff, but credit must be given to the faculty and student body for the excellent cooperation which they afforded the editor and staff.

CENTRAL TREASURY Links Activities With Business The Central Treasury handles all the school funds. Each class and club elects a treasurer who keeps an accurate record of all cash transactions. Under the supervision of Mrs. Brady, a complete bookkeeping system is maintained. The student treasurers have been very cooperative in their duties in the Central Treasury.

As in the case of many clubs, it has concentrated its energy on war work to the exclusion of many of its pre-war activities. Sponsorship of the Junior Red Cross drive was enthusiastically undertaken by the girls and commendable interest was displayed in the school in this essential activity. The organization has given to the school a lectern and a Bible for the auditorium stage. Social functions, excellently planned and conducted, were a delightful party for the faculty and lovely Christmas and Valentine parties, culminating the year in a Mother’s Day banquet. Delightful talks, on separate occasions, by Mr. Rounsley, director of the DuBois chapter of the Y. M. C. A., and Mrs. Martin, head of the Nurses Training School, Clearfield Hospital, Clearfield, Penna., added considerable interest to our meetings. The puprpose of the Tri-Hi-Y to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community standards of Christian living has been ideally realized.

This year that aim was accomplished. At that time Miss Ellis was elected as honorary advisor. The club plans to send representatives to the district meeting in May. The club is proud of the many projects it accomplished during the year. One outstanding project was the making of utility bags and writing portfolios for the American Junior Red Cross. Another program that drew a great amount of attention was the Fashion Show and tea which was held on April 13th. Parents and members of the community were invited. The girls prepared and served the dinner for the Athletic Council Banquet. This dinner was greatly enjoyed and appreciated by the guests. The social program proved very diverting from the usual trend of events. A weiner roast in September was the first party. This was followed by initiation night, a Thanksgiving Party, a Valentine program, a spaghetti dinner at a local restaurant, an Easter Dinner, and a Spring Party. All of the girls have enjoyed this year and hope that the club will continue to be as active in the years to come.

Several new members were taken into the Library. During the year we carried on many activities. We had a party for the initiation of new members and a Christmas party during the first semester. We presented in assembly two plays, “Madame Delphine” by George Washington Coble and the radio play, “Typee” by Herman Melville. During Good Book Week, the Library Club staged a contest and gave books as prizes. We added many new books, and had an interesting display of them and others during Good Book Week. MEMBERS: Alta Divins, Cleora Green, Fay Harvey, Janet Harvey, Olive Krob, Vivian Puyda, Helen Schoch, Kathryn Schoch, Doris Shenkle, Lanore Stoughton. SENIOR CLASS PLAY Thespians Learn Meaning of Lights, Curtain, Action Shortly after school opened this year, a committee of Seniors selected for their annual class play, “That's the Ticket”, a farce by Gilson and Scott. Soon after this play went into rehearsal with Bob Kotzbauer, S 2 c, and Clara Lyons as the stars. Bob played the part of John Betterly, a mediocre business man, and Clara Lyons played opposite as his very talkative wife. Micky Elniski, who emceed last year’s Radio Ili-Lights program, was highly successful as Bob’s business partner and future son-in-law. Eileen Saiada, an attractive college girl, was his co-partner. Dick Fleck won applause as the lawyer, Boggs, who could spout Latin faster, but not nearly so accurately, as English. I illian Johnson, as Godiva, the colored maid, practically had the audience in the aisles with her absurd behavior and speech. Pete Kelege was the highly efficient ambulance attendant.

They play, “Hot Water Hero”, was a hilarious comedy. Dale Hoover and Clara Lyons had the lead, with Robert Kotzbauer, Lamont Sones, Eileen Salada, and Lillian Johnson in supporting roles. Pete Kelege and Shirley Minns proved their ability as character actors in playing the part of a middle-aged couple. Dick Fleck and Elaine Waggett provided much lively comedy as the chauffeur and the cook. The theme of the play is centered around the unsatisfactory romances of Tom and Joe. These two boys bribe shy, timid, little Alfred into helping them. Things go from bad to worse with one laughable situation piling on top of another until Alfred is caught like the proverbial fly in the spider’s web. Eventually, Tom’s mother finds the solution and everything is straightened out satisfactorily.

Ellis JUNIOR CLASS PLAY The Play Is Definitely the Thing “Dead of the Night”, a brand-new mystery-farce by James Reach, as presented by the Junior Class, proved to be one of Sandy’s most entertaining productions this year. It combined side-splitting comedy with a chilling and mystifying plot. Alice Gardner, a young radio writer, went to Holbrook Manor, a deserted old mansion owned by her fiance, Steve Holbrook, in order to complete an important radio script in surroundings of peace and quiet. She was accompanied by her niaid, Jasmine—one of the most screamingly funny colored comedy characters ever written into a play. But instead of finding Holbrook Manor quiet and deserted as they had expected, Alice and Jasmine discovered that it was peopled by the strangest collection of “nuts” ever gathered together under one roof, including “Hitler”, “Mussolini”, “Queen Elizabeth”, “Pocahontas”, and “Mrs. Rockefeller”. They were under the care of Dr. Lawson, a strange psychiatrist, and Mrs. Egg, the sinister housekeeper. Also present in the house was Glenn, a young man who claimed to be crazy, but who could be exceedingly sane at times, as Alice learned. What all these people were doing at Holbrook Manor was part of the mystery that unfolded as the play continued on its cock-eyed course. Alice became involved in a nefarious spy ring, and her safety and her very life—also Jasmine’s life—were in grave danger. There were moments of hilarious laughter and excited suspense as the play moved at the speed of an express train from the first curtain to the last.

The entire play takes place in the Baldwin’s living room in Seaford, Connecticut. This play might be described as a dramatized guffaw, so constant is its mirth. The fun begins when Archie Baldwin and Ed Saunders slip away from home to go to the tracks, telling their wives they’re visiting distant relatives, ‘ Felix”, a Frenchman, and “Aunt Nellie”, a former burlesque queen. They get unexpected visits from both “Aunt Nellie” and “Felix”, who “gum up the works” for Archie and Ed. Archie is caught between two fires, his wife, who decides to leave him, and Mr. Van Dilling, his boss, threatens to fire him.

HEALTH —THE REQUISITE OF EACH INDIVIDUAL IS SOUGHT AND ENCOURAGED. RECREATION FURNISHES THE NECESSARY RELAXATION FOR COMPLETE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL GROWTH. ATHLETICS PROVIDE THE COMPETITIVE GAMES WHICH STIMULATE THE ACQUISITION OF ATTITUDES OF FAIR PLAY AND GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP, AND TEACH THE VALUE OF TEAM WORK AND COOPERATION. THE AIM — SOUND MINDS AND HEALTHY BODIES. ATHLETIC COUNCIL Athletic Association Supplements Active Sports President - Norman Brown Secretary - - Lillian Johnson Treasurer ----------------- - Richard Fleck Advisors - Mr. W. D. Weaver, Mr. Frank Malasky This year the Athletic Council started its program by putting on the annual “Athletic Association Drive in order to raise the funds which are necessary to support its activities. The organization performed a new duty—that of handling the athletic equipment for the health classes. When the weather permitted, each class went out-of-doors during activities periods and took part in some sport. The boys played mushball and touch-football. Both boys and girls played tennis and volleyball. The girls also went on short hikes near the school grounds. It was the duty of the council to get the equipment ready, to see that it was repaired, and to put it away at the end of each activities period. This organization also took charge of having the tennis court rolled, scraped, and marked off in the spring. The council felt that the entire student body looked forward to these recreation periods. This year the Y. M. C. A. was used for basketball practice and all of our home games. The Athletic Council instigated the inter-class basketball game between the varsity and the alumni team. As a grand finale, the members of the council with the help of the home economics department sponsored a banquet for the basketball team, the cheerleaders, the coach, the advisors, and the school board members. It proved to be a most delightful affair. BASKETBALL Physical Culture Builds Health We started our basketball season with a group of boys eager to play basketball, but we were without a coach. Our principal, Mr. Frank Malasky, kindly consented, with a little persuasion, to take over the coaching position for the season. With little experience behind us, we did succeed in winning three non-league and one league game. Our last game with Brockway proved to be a most exciting game for both students of Sandy and Brockway, which finally ended in our only league victory of the season. Our team this year was composed of Carmella, Snyder, Deasey, Wightman, Brown, Elniski, Fleck, Ogershok, Schmidt, and MeCauslin. Graduation this year will take only Snyder, Fleck, and Elniski, which leaves practically full strength for next year. The graduating players wish next year’s coach and team much success in next year’s season. The lettermen this year were Paul Snyder, Micky Elniski, Dick Fleck, Norman Brown, Jim Carmella, Frank Ogershok, and Paul Deasey. SEASON RECORD Sandy ...... 14 St. Catherine 37 Sandy 32 D. U.

This yell seemed to create much enthusiasm and pep amcng the crowd while designating our players from iheir opponents. Working toward perfection of form and technique in themselves and spontaneous response from the cheering section, the six girls attained a degree of success that has been unequalled in any other season. New cheers, tricky formation of leaders, and spirited pep meetings kept the rather lackadaisical interest of the students. The cheerleaders made the student body aware of the necessity of back the team every minute on every occasion. The members of this year's group are: Delores Caimella, Eileen Salada, and Catherine Wilson from the Senior Class, and Enid Place and Rosella Ogershok from the Junior Class, and Loretta Calvert from the Sophomore Class was chosen at the beginning of the season to fill a vacancy. Yvonne Clark was chosen as a substitute. Letters will be awarded to Delores Carmella, Eileen Salada, Enid Place, and Rosella Ogershok. Mrs. Proesl, the cheerleader advisor, supervised practice sessions and accompanied them to both home and out-of-town games. At home games the cheerleaders led the flag salute, the singing of the national anthem, and introduced the players of the opposing team. A dinner, given at the St. James Hotel on March 21st, in honor of the girls who cheered so faithfully, concluded the season.
