Southwestern High School - Prospector Yearbook (Detroit, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 52 of the 1949 volume:

Jin iBrmurium We, the graduating class of January, 1949, would like to take this opportunity «o pay tribute to the memory of Joseph K. Boltz, who for three years served as co- ordinator of the Citizenship Education Study at Southwestern. In this capacity he initiated and contributed heavily to the completion of many projects which are now taken for granted. Gone hut not forgotten, Joe Boltz, will continue to live in the hearts of Southw esternites who knew and loved him. Dedication We, the graduating class of January, 1949, dedicate our Pictorial to Mr. Robert E. Warner with sincere ap- preciation for his advice and counsel. Mr. Warner is a native of Detroit and a graduate of Northwestern High School. From Northwestern, Mr. Warner entered Michigan State College where he re- ceived his bachelor's degree. Then he went on to the University of Michigan to attain his Master of Science degree. Starting his career as a teacher at Blissfield, Michi- gan, Mr. Warner first served four years with the U. S. Department of Agriculture. He came to Southwestern in 1946 as head of our science and mathematics depart- ment and he teaches physics, physiology, math, and aero- nautics. Taking an active interest in student affairs, Mr. Warner sponsors the Science, Math, and Photogra- phy Clubs. So M. Warner, we dedicate this Pictorial to you whose patient aid has made school a happier place. We shall never forget you and shall earnestly strive to follow your advice and inspiring example as a teacher and citizen. Pm Two President’Address by Joe Ri x Today marks the end of four short, but memorable years at Southwestern. Our school days are over, but we are proud and glad to become alumni of this institution which has given us so much. It seems only a few months ago that we came here with smiles on our faces to enroll, but we leave now with sorrow in our hearts. In these four years at school we have met very friendly people who have helped us settle the problems that faced us, so that we are better prepared to confront the greater problems ahead of us. We shall never forget the friends we have met here. Now we leave to seek new opportunities. Every one is taking his or her own path into the world. At this point I should like to express my deepest thanks on behalf of my class to Mr. Clark, Mrs. Whit- marsh, and Mr. Wixson, and all the faculty for their ex- cellent leadership. Thank you, my classmates, for the great honor of electing me president. This honor will always stay with me. May the future bring each of you not only happi- ness. but the realization of all your hopes. Let us go forth with confidence because we have received a fine Ameri- can education. fair Three Published by the Students of Southwestern High School Detroit, Michigan, January, 1949 Senior Journalism (i) Class Junior Journalism Class F e Five Set lior Class of 8HIRLEY AMBROSE Wilson; Senior Y Teens; French Club; Class Motto Committee; Senior Play Prompter; Stenographer.

Even as wc think this, we recall all the memorable occasions of the last four years I he first function of the 12B class was to elect offi- cers. Paul Scafuri was elected to run the class as presi- dent. Betty Ryno was vice-president, w ith Julia Berna as secretary. Bruno Rettig was treasurer. Our first impression of Southwe t rn was that of the endless corridors, miles of homework, and a m'.rathon race to the lunch room. I aking a leave of absence, Eugene Kuthy went to Florida on a record-timing airplane trip through the courtesies of a well-known Detroit publication. We came back that September as half-baked fresh- men. Not only were we happy for that reason, but also because of the fact that the second World War had end- ed. Our great theatrical production, the 12B Concert, featured our following class members: Betty Ryno, Julia Berna, Frank Sokolitz as master of ceremonies, and Betty Sipos. “It is not time that passes; but we that go.” We al- ready found ourselves scphomcrcs. For a chuige, it was not the boys that established themselves in the athletic fields by earning letters, but oddly enough, it was the girls. They were Irene Medzigian and Athena Mirkus, earning letters in fencing and swimming respectively. Our sophomore year also marked the Silver Jubi- lee. Participants from our class in this celebration were Mary Czegledi. Julia Berna, Dawn Bergeron, Elizabeth Forintos, Dolores Farkas, Elizabeth Borbis, and Margaret Dapprich. Hie talented young ladies entertained the crowds with their singing and dancing. Our first big high-school thrill came when we cele- brated 11A Day. Gosh! Did we feel privileged! We all remember the girls walking down the stairs on their an- kles and clutching the bannisters to keep from falling. The reason? There could only be one answer — they were wearing their first pair of high heels. The class members distinguished themselves by wearing white car- nations with blue and white ribbons. We closed this eventful day by holding a dance at the Findlater Hall. Can this be possible!! Our senior year at last? ) Our second class day had arrived and we wore our seeemingly traditional white carnation with blue and white ribbons. We were probably the only class that ever had two class day celebrations. On 12B Day we went to W illow Bench, swimming in the icy waters of Lake Erie. On the following Sunday, we went to another beach party at Walled Lake. After a hearty summer vacation, we came back to school ready to tackle our last semester at Southwestern as full-fledged seniors, with the added honor of being all together in the auditorium for record. After a brilliant campaign, we elected Joe Rizo as head man to lead our class as president. For the first time in the history of Southwestern, a brother-sister team was elected to office. They were Jim Czegledi as treasurer and Mary Czegledi as vice-president. Julia Berna was chosen to run matters of state as our secretary. Holding the reins of the senior class were M. Wix- son and Mrs. Whitmarsh as sponsors. Continued on Page 39 Pair Elnm Valedictory by Floyd Compton Salutatory by Eugene Kuthy For a moment as I look about I can sense the air of sadness centered around seniors, my classmates, as you contemplate on the thought of your few remaining days at Southwestern. 1 can also say that 1 too feel as sad as you when I think of that disturbing fact. However, we cannot help this as we think of leav- ing those wonderful boys and girls, our friends, and those equally wonderful teachers. As a member of our faculty has often expressed, “There is no pain so great, as the pain of a new idea ’ Here I wish to pause momentarily and explore this thought and its meaning to us. During our stay at Southwestern we have gained not only in technical but also in practical knowledge. The friendly atmosphere at Southwesem has changed our class from a group of controversial cliques to a uni- fied organization whose teamwork was admirably demon- strated in our recent subscription campaign. Our class is small in numbers only, for we have been blessed with those traits that make a class big — loyalty, integrity, and initiative. Throughout our life, each of us will make many friends, but how can those bonds formed here ever be forgotten? Fof here we have worked together as a team. We have striven to solve our problems and to achieve our common goals. We have completed one phase of life at Southwest- ern, and a very important phase it has been; for here, as teen-agers, our personalities were shaped and many ideals were formed that will remain with us always. As we step into the road of life, let us remember that the path to success is steep and filled with hardships. As time goes on, let us recall the team work displayed by our class, for in a few years we shall be part of a team headed by the President of the United States, a man selected by and answerable to us. Now graduation is upon us and we must leave Southwestern. Surely the hearts of every one of us are filled with sorrow as we realize that the care-free days of high school are over and we must face the serious bus- iness of supporting ourselves. I should like to thank Mr. Clark and the faculty for their co-operation and understanding. Many of our teachers have taken a parent-like attitude toward us, helping us over our mistakes and encouraging us to each small success. To these teachers I extend my utmost gra- titude. They will remain forever dear to me. And so to all you seniors, all the faculty, and to all the traditions, a most fond, “Goodbye, Southwestern!” As a class we find it difficult to leave this school and our established ways, to leave our cherished traditions, our best friends, the memories of fun we have all enjoy- ed and which now seems locked up forever in our hearts never to be forgotten. But let us remember as we leave Southwestern, that we go on a new journey to arrive at a new destination. Our departure marks our way into the land of adult life where it is our job to carve for ourselves a place and to show others the results of four happy years of schooling. Let us keep in mind that however painful the idea of entering into adult life may sound it is our duty, and that the preparation we have received for doing so re- quires that we accomplish it to the best of our means. In my total unawareness as to what the future has in store for each and everyone of us, I can only hope and pray that God gives us the courage and the faith to carry on and do well in everything we undertake. P� fr Twelve Presentation of the Spade by Irene Medzigian As a graduating senior I am proud to present to you this cherished emblem of Southwestern High. This tra- ditional spade represents friendliness and good sports- manship. I know that the incoming class will try to uphold all the high standards this spade symbolizes. Acceptance of the Spade by Barbara Yurmanovich I am greatly honored at having the 12B class bestow upon me this great privilege of accepting this cherished spade from you, the senior graduating class. We, the future seniors, extend our congratulations to each and everyone, and we hope that we may carry on the high standards that you and your predecessors have set before us. Thank you. Presentation of the Pick by Manuel Caladino A great honor has been bestowed upon me by my senior class to present this time-worn pick, a symbol of Southwestern’s everlasting friendship and good scholar- ship, to you, the leaders of the future. May you keep its flame of honor burning bright and guard it with all your will, as our class has done in the past year. Good luck to you, the graduating class of tomorrow, and may God guide you through life with success and happiness. Acceptance of the Pick by James Cowden As a representative of the present 12B class, it is my honor and privilege to accept this pick for my fellow classmates, from you, the graduating class of January 1949. One might call both our classes the Forty-Niners; and the forty niners, as we all know, were the first real prospectors in America. May we, the future seniors, keep the high standards that you left behind; and if possible surpass them. Good luck to all of you. Pafe Thirteen In the dark backgrounds of the village of Delray, two Southwestern students happened to meet a weird person gazing over her crystal. She had the ability to foretell the future and was going about the procedure of bringing to her vision the mystic futures of persons whose names jhe mentioned. Our two spies, as they secretly listened, memorized her methods and techniques. The students of the January ’49 class obtained the fol- lowing information of the future from them: At Elise Hardy’s rest home, we come across Eliza beth Borbas and Mary Czegledi after their recent break- down, (shortage of males). In the heart of Delray, we find Harry Arkelian and Appo Zamanian managing the “French Hat Shoppe . The new model, worn by Betty Ryno, is a hat that Del- ray dust will not penetrate. In the 1960 Olympic diving contest for married women, we find Shirley Ambrose and Athena Markus doing a fine execution of the “belly smasher”. On all main street corners, wc find the widely pub- lished paper, everyone's News, edited by Lirio Angelo sante. Starting as cub reporter is Eugene Kuthy cherish- ing his one inch spread on page 36. At our latest fashion show, we found Carol Koche- var and Angeline Mandziuk modeling the new 1850 bathing suits. As president of the Young Men’s Club, we find Dolores Farkas giving lectures on “How To Get a Date”. We find Floyd Compton, head editor of “Love” magazines, w riting his newest story, “Real Heart Aches”, guaranteed to make bold boys good. One of his most attentive and ardent readers is Willy Harbowy who buys two copies in case one wears out. Going on his 1313th flight, with his cat Blackie, we find test pilot Ralph Brehmer testing the new rubber band engine invented by Richard Eix. 12A Prophets Reveal by Dawn Bergeron Judge Joe Rizo is now presiding over a case in New York Circuit Comt, the case being between Bob Walin- ske and George Simons. It seems Bob sold George the Brooklyn Bridge without giving him a bill of sale. Angelo Tremonti is the greatest surgeon i.i the medical association. He is recognized by everyone as “butterfingers” because of his limberness in all surgical movements. His ideal, “Doctor Mitty”. Frank Lipchik, a devoted bachelor, was sole judge at a beauty contest in Florida yesterday. Today the au- thorities are rejudging the contest. Running the Main Cafe at Miami, Florida, is James (double deal) Czegledi and Frank (nimble fingers) Mol- nar. One of the patrons who plans to buy the place is Eugene Didyk with a new system he calls a sure thing. With position of bouncer, is Richard Redmer who keeps things in order. Down in the Delray Opera House, we find Julia Berna and Rose Marie Galitz singing a duet from Car men. At a Detroit Lion’s game, taking pictures at every angle, including from the goal posts, are Frank Sokolitz and Bob Bone. Enrolled at Loraine Masuch's “Art of Sewing” college, we find Sophia Nairn and Angeles Kasparian. Sophia is knitting socks and Angeles is trying a new crea- tion, fingerless gloves. At his own private laboratory Manuel Caladino has come upon a great achievement — a new hair dye for girls, aqua blue. W'earing this new style are Barbara Manning and Diana Miller. Still enrolled at Yale, we find Agnes Kizner and El- vera Holthus. Today’s game in football is between the Boll Wea- vels and the Cotton Bowl Eleven. On the favored team the Boll W'eavels, are stars Lloyd Axford, Paul Scafuri, and Bob Perino. Paul Scafuri broke his collar bone in practice yesterday, but the fighting man will fill his posi- tion as usual today. Mary Magusin and Merry Rambeau, together at Sun Valley are teaching Mary Ann Rosnyai the graceful art of skiing, which they have mastered. Today is the day they go off the jumps. George Krikorian and Steve Peters are stretcher-bearers. A remark from the boys: “Business is wonderful.” Page Fourteen Future of Classmates and Bruno Rettig In the Weston hospital, we find Philip Caruso with a bleeding head wound. Nurse Joan Byrns, with all her previous experience, is putting a tourniquet around Philip's neck. Something she read in the Nurse’s Handy Manual. Still working at the Thrifty TeirCent Store, we find Lorraine Wegl.irz and Elizabeth Forintos, giving a high-pressure sales talk to James Holtz who has spent half his check already. At the Be Happy Rollerdrome, we find Teacher Carl Drangin artfully administrating useful hints to Glo- ria Del Puppo and Yolanda Macchione. Playing at the Plaza Theater in the current film. hit “The Return of Baby Face”, Joe Favio is portraying the notorious gangster, tommy-gun in hand, blasting his way out of Alcatraz. In the world series, Al Fazekas of the American League Flatfeet and Bob Durue of the National League Polka Dot Socks are rival pitchers. Both have brilliant records — 1 win and 13 losses. Organizing her tenth fan club is Rose Pavelka. Her first active members are Irene Mocur and Mary Pede nelli. Robert Hightower is writing songs that have reach- ed all the way to Alaska. His newest composition is “In- ner Sanctum Blues”. U take what comes. The only thing we want is fame and fortune. Now general manager of Ford Motor Co., Ernest Iszak drove off the first ’59 Ford, his own creation, “It looks like a replica of the Model ‘T’,” he said. . Tonight is the big night at the Metropolitan Opera House. We find the trio, Irene Medzigian and Betty Helen Gibson playing the violin and Betty Sipos the piano for a one-night stand. In the box seats, some of the celebrities are Priscilla Garay, Leroy Mitchell, and Albert Peluso. Tomorrow night David Kittle has a violin solo. His talents are said to equal those of Jack Benny. And probably the farthest away from our alma mater, is Richard Braden tracking dow n Polar Bear w ith his new sling shot. After a tour of Europe, enjoying the scenes of the Tower of Pisa, museums, etc., Rosemary Toth: Fidcs Truant, and Bernice Watson are returning to America with great enthusiasm. Eugene Hatlak is now coaching the basketball team at Michigan State. He is teaching all the brilliant tactics that he learned at Southwestern. He is tellling them what a snappy team his high school had. At the latest National Gremlin Association Con- ference, John Kashetsky was unanimously voted “Grem- lin of the Year”. Returning from the 1960 Olympics games and re- ceiving a tremendous ovation is Bob Hickson, the Worlds Renowned Knitting Champion. Recently discharged from Girl Scouts are Walter Brannan and Charles Pelfrey, because of their perpetual habit of burning the morning toast.

Graduation Day by Hetty Ryno On this, our Graduation Day, When new adventures start There isn’t much that we can say; There’s sadness in each heart. Our teachers, too, we’ll sadly miss; They shared our joys and fears; Their willingness to help us learn Will guide us through the years. Familiar faces of our friends And smiles we used to know In memory will follow us Wherever we may go. We’ll miss those high school crushes We walked with down the hall, Recalling “that certain some-one” We liked the best of all. We'll not forget the happiness, The struggles and the strife, Even though our class will go On different roads of life.

Every senior class member was wearing out shoe leather by selling maga- zine subscriptions. This was the first time that such a project to raise money for the treasury had been attempt- ed. We all enjoyed “roughing it” on a Saturday evening by eating burned wieners on the outside and raw on the inside at our 12A wiener roast. Our next item on the agenda was the Southwestern Faculty vs. Seniors Basketball Game. The hot-shot stu- dents were Dick Redmer, Joe Rizo, “Appo Zamanian, “Bobo Durue, Leroy Mitchell, and Frank Lipchik. Under the excellent supervision of Mr. Morel, the senior play turned out to be a success. The play was a hilarious comedy, “Everybody’s Crazy Now.” The future John Barrymores and Katherine Cornells were Frank Sokolitz, Bruno Rettig, Elmer Odor, James Schren: Ralph Brchmer, Dawn Bergeron, Elizabeth Borbas, Lucy Nal bandian, Athena Markus, and Sophie Nairn. Soon after the play, the class had their senior dance. On Class Day Irene Medzigian and Manuel Caladi- no presented the pick and spade to future 12A's as a symbol of our school. 12A Day finally rolled around. We all wore smiles on our lips, but tears were in our hearts. This was to be our last class day. Our marks of distinction were white carnations and double purple ribbons. Well, kiddies. Father Time’s beard has grow n long, and our time has grow n short. Closing w ith our class motto, “The roots of educa- are bitter; but the fruits are sweet. we, Frank and Betty, w culd like to w ish each and every one of you all the luck in the world. fare Thirty-Nil� � Senior Intramural Champs Junior Intramural Champs Pace Fort Natators in Action 0 rs;f Forty-One Offi ce Personnel Lunchroom Staff j Always Something New Headquarters for , ®—Wltiri At Portable Typewriters: VALUE and‘RemmeuS SURPLUS CENTER DC «r „00. a,.,, „ , 77«?
