KOWAL-Teapee - Branford, May Sth, by Iudge FRANCIS TRCKA. 27 The class of 1946 of Shelton High School held its second reunion in IU years last night -this time at the Silver Fox Inn, formerly Rapps' establish- ment. After a delicious snack, pro- vided by that well-known meat packer, FRANK PAG- LIARO, IR., the entertainment commenced with a vocal duet rendered by Miss DINAH YOIA, and the swoon croon- er, FRAN'KIE SAULNIER. Humor was provided for the occasion by ABBOTT SI- MICS and COSTELLO SYL- VESTER. As soon as the laugh- ter subsided, MICHAEL ZAS- KALICKY stepped to the piano and played his recent compo- sition Rhapsody in Purple. Then Miss FLORENCE LAR- SON took the spotlight, hold- ing the audience spellbound by her magnificent rendition of The Flight of the Bumble Bee , on her Stradivarius. At this point, a rumor passed through the crowd that NEL- SON BACCHIOCCHI had re- cently become Notre Dame's football coach. Therefore he was literally swept to the floor to give a brief talk on the Ele- ments Comprising the 'Z' For- mation . Nel was mighty glad to give the floor to DR. IOAN WILCOX who spoke on her pet subject, The Advance- ment of Atomic Injections as Cure-Alls . The program was concluded with Turkey in the Straw played by the King of the Violin, NESTOR MEN- GUAL, and the amazing S y m p h o n i c Accordionist, I OSEP OLTRA.

became the scene of a gay carnival. On the night of the big event our guests, to their amazement, saw pink elephants and green lions. We danced to the music of Art Maresco's orchestra and enjoyed Rose Ryan's rendition of Close as Pages in a Book . Red Saulnier was master of ceremonies, and was the life of the party with his jokes. Comedy made its appearance from time to time. Well do we remember the morning Bob M3:Leod appeared minus those curly locks. However, Pineapples are supposed to keep one cool. We soon discovered that we had our own Frank Sinatra in Red Saulnier. Many times we were entertained by his baritone voice. At the end of the year we regretted the loss of Fred Cotter, for he left to attend St. Iohn's Military Academy in Washington, D. C. As all good things must come to an end, so did our junior year. We left for our vacation with many fond memories, but also eagerly awaiting the big year. On Wednesday morning September 8, 1945 we began our first peace-time high school year. Mr. Karl K. Tarbell, our new principal, back again after serving in the Navy, welcomed us all in an informal assembly held that morning. It did not take us long to get down to work and attend to important business. Elections were held and the results were as follows: President, Gene Buchlig Vice-President, Geraldine Gaetzp Secretary, Irene Sedlock: and Treasurer, Iohn Veneri. Bob McLeod was elected president of the Student Council. This year, the Student Council held a major position in the governing of our school. It organized a new activities program under the guidance of the faculty. Every Wednesday the last period was set aside for meetings of the various clubs. Each of these clubs was represented on the Student Council. Our Student Council became a member of the Housa- tonic League of Student Councils, and played host to an executive board meeting on February 14th. During the course of the year three members of our faculty returned from the service to resume their work with us. They were Mr. Finn, Mr. Freiheit, and Mr. Murray. Each year the senior class chooses a girl for the D. A. R. award. She must be depend- able, trustworthy, loyal, honest, intelligent and co-operative. Ioan Wilcox was selected. Many sayings and doings will long be remembered. Roy Brainard commented, If Ioan Wilcox is an encyclopedia, I must be her little cousin, notebook . Pearl Giesen's daily jokes brightened our more serious moments. Famous were those Carlson-Rousseau debates. They linger on in our memories with the Lincoln-Douglas debaters, the only difference being, we never knew or fully understood what Val and Fred were arguing about. We never knew whether Mr. Tyrrell had a soothing voice, or whether it was the approach of spring, but . . . why did Tootie Rogowski fall asleep in Law class???? The last few months were crowded with exciting activities-class pictures and Argus Board deadline-Senior Dance-graduation music and essays and, finally, Senior Week. How eagerly we awaited our coveted diplomas! In the midst of all of our happiness, we were saddened as we realized that another September we would no longer be active members of the Shelton High School.
