The final chapter of our high school days is being written as we walk down the aisle in caps and gowns with diplomas in hand, Proud parents are beaming, congratulations are many and sincere. The future beckons, but We look back upon our Alma Mater and re-live our high school days. Green freshmen, now dignified seniors have many memories of rustling formals at the proms, snappy cheers during basketball and football games which vie with hopes for the future. To future Edwardites we Wish success, such as ours. As we leave with determination to become a credit to that sheltering portal of knowledge, a twinge of regret marks our fond farewell. Robert Fiesmari lames Riepl HIS EXCELLENCY THE MOST REVEREND IOHN I. BOYLAN. D.D. Bishop of Rockiord We are gratelul to you, Your Excellency, lor your continued interest in the growth ot St. Edward High School.

Some clay soon Kathryn hopes to start out on a career of song. LOIS BECKMAN Theres a mischievous gleam in her eye and shes full ot fun. Perhaps that is Why she's a favorite at social functions. At present she has an unusual ambitiong Lois hopes to manage a shoe store some day. PATRICIA BOYER Pats posters announced our social events time and time again. Her good natured l'll try usually met our request for some rush job. Shell succeed, we know, be- cause she has a rare talent and the desire to get ahead. RONALD BUNTE lt didn't take us long to realize that Corky was an ideal social chairman. Many a dull moment Was brightened by his ready Wit. His main ambition is to become a cartoonist. 485 ROBERT CANE Shy Bob proved his worth in the Music Department at St. Edward. Whether he was called upon to be another Iturbi or asked to toot a horn, good music always came forth for our enjoyment. . VICTOR CENTANNI Vic may have been quick on the trigger but we liked him for it. Not only the seniors, but the entire student body missed him when he left us for the Army Air Corps. IOHN CHAPIN lt's a touchdown! lt's a basket! It's an- other track record! These exclamations typify this outstanding athlete. On the gridiron he's a terror to opponents, but to us, Iohn is just a shy, well-liked boy ROSEMARY COOPER Until just recently Rosemary hoped to be an R. N. Perhaps her unusual Christmas gift changed her mind. Whether it's a career or marriage, Rosemary, We Wish you success. Lnefeen un rec! an jorfy-eigkf 49? LAURENCE CORR Larry, better known as the Senator , spends many leisure moments trying to reform the political views of his class- mates. His main interest however is not politics, but architecture. I-le'll long be remembered tor his ready reply l did it another Way. - TERESA DIETZ Pat's determination to make good is evi- dent in everything she does. She hopes to enter the secretarial field in lune and we are sure that her congenial nature and ability will make her an asset to any business firm. PATRICIA DOHERTY lt didn't take Pat long to endear herselt to the senior class. The Mounts loss was our gain. Her sweet smile, twinkling eyes and ready wit are responsible tor her popularity. ROSEMARY DOUGHERTY A small, likeable girl who cornrnutes from Algonquin every day. Rosemary is quiet, ambitious, and has an active interest in all school activities. She hopes to be- come a Lab. Technician someday. reloarealfor a life K e emi I0 410V c 0 amacla, oofaerafion ana! Ckaracfer KENNETH EGGER Ken will be remembered more for his shyness than anything else. Whether he knows it or not, he outshines all competi- tors in this line. Nonetheless, he and his similarly retiring car will long remain in our memory. ROBERT FIESMAN Bob actually had his head in the clouds for most of his high school career. He loved it and he plans to continue his work at the airport. Of course, someday he hopes to own his own field. Good luck, Pies! BENNO FISCHER Big Ben is ambitious in his own way. There's no doubt about it. His booming voice will echo on through St. Edward corridors for years and years. We'l1 miss his interesting interpretations of literature. VIRGINIA GREVE Virginia prefers to be called Gin . Her friendly manner and ability to be a good mixer brought a reward in the form of the title Queen in the 46 popularity contest. Never one to over-emphasize school, she puts her vote in for the dance. 4115 jie gen! yearn RAYMOND HIGGINS Big Ray is a remedy for chasing away the blues. His slow humor is unequaled. Until recently he was interested in rail- roads, now he's pondering over the pos- sibility of placing his 6 toot 8 inches into a midget racer. WILLIAM HUBER Little Bill has been traveling back and forth from Wayne these past four years - but he loved it! I-le's quiet, shy, and full of fun. When the C. A. G E. prevented his attendance at social functions he al- ways gave his loyal support in other Ways. IAMES KNAAK Iim really has executive ability, and We think it Will be no time at all until he makes a name for himself in business. Ot course, he'll take time out for a business management course at our neighboring college. IOHN KNOTT An integral part of every class is the boy Who is always ready to lend a hand, aptly I called a lack of all trades. 412D ur iueri MARILYN KONSTANZER Marilyn's well known giggle usually an- nounces her arrival, By nature she is very cheerful and continually looks on the bright side of every situation. She and her twin plan to own a dude ranch some day. MARION KONSTANZER Marion, our twin, was always eager to lend a helping hand. We appreciated her ability to see, uninvited, what needed to be done in the cafeteria and the office. RANDALL LOSSAU Ranny, our mainstay, has been popular with all. ln spite of hours and hours of practice on the gridiron, the track field and the basketball floor he was on hand for social events and was always wel- come. FAITH MCALPIN Faith's precision and neatness were out- standing. Her slogan seemed to be any- thing worth doing is worth doing well. ,aenf af Sf glalwarcl .AWA .S7cAoo! 4135 Ulm CAM RICHARD MANDERNACH ' Each year Dick assumed a new nickname. Whether you belong to the group who think of him in terms of Gus , or whether you refer to him as the Mole makes no difference to him. LOU ANN MARTENSEN Lou Ann has a serious side. However, we are more familiar with her jovial spirit. She was always on hand to contribute a hearty laugh when things grew slightly dull. BERNARD MAYOTTE Berr1ie's future is quite certain. We who know him can already hear the beat of the drums as he rolls out the prelude to the theme song of a big band. IOHN MILLER There were times when lacks existence was really rugged. Attendance at St. Edward was a challenge to lack and he answered that challenge by engaging in light housekeeping. Won't some girl be lucky a few years from now? 414D 7948 ROSEMARY ORLOSKI Another commuter! The Barrington bus has been bringing Dolly in for four years. lt's a long way, but she thought it was worth it. This jovial senior loves to fill in many a gap in the conversation. LAURENCE OSTDICK Larry's California, Here I Come. was really sung in all sincerity. He's anxious to complete those plans for the great west- ward movement. Make good, Larry, so that we can come out and spend a week with you sometime. DONALD OTT He is a reserved, well mannered fellow known to all of us as Ducky . He is carefree, casual, and always willing to entertain. While not an active partici- pant in sports, he was an outstanding fan, always found in the bleachers cheering the team on to victory. GERALD PEASE Ierry was never one to be idle for long, and he really made the most of his op- portunities. Perhaps his keen interest in science was provoked by his eagerness to don the white jacket and perform a major operation. oun C-rienc!5AiIo 4157 CHARLENE POND Chucky's C'mon, team. Let's go! Will forever echo in our ears. She was really a vivacious cheerleader. Her eagerness to lend a hand when the going Was rough was encouraging to the class of '48. EDWARD QUIRIN Ed is our perpetual good humor man. He's always rarin' to go, With or without his famous bicycle. He has been a friend to all throughout his four years with us. ln spite of the carefree manner he kept in the upper third of the clcss. ANNA MAE RACHNER lt's success for sure with Anna Mae's quiet determination. The desire to travel is re- sponsible for that dreamy look in her bright eyes. HELEN RANGE Boots has always been a favorite in the class of '48. Many a volley of laughter escaped when she frequently repeated her famous l don't get it! I-ler excuses for being tardy were unequaled. Q' 225 f Obtl' 2CLl 6 0 elle 0l9l'l'lel'lf 116i lozrzfua , Wenfad !9A,y5icaA Social PHYLLIS REINERT The girl with sparkling personality! Two years in a row she was our choice of can- didate for Queen. Her leisure moments are Well spent developing her artistic talent. Some day soon she hopes to own real horses instead of just sketching them. IAMES RIEPL Everyone likes Riepl. l-le's the life of every party. Whether on the football field, the classroom, or the hall, Snoz was always ready for a tackle! We hope that his pharmecutical career does not interfere with his interest in the ladies. IOHN RUMPLE lack and the Old Worry Bird have never met. He's our easy-going and fun-loving senior. Tense moments seem to disap- pear when lack smilingly drawls What's up? IOYCE SCHILTZ Ioyce is as candid as a camera and we admire her for it. She plans to make the Gold Coast her home after a brief busi- ness career. The career will be brief be- cause Ioyce has marriage in mind. 417P' we was of 1948 THEODORE SCHNELL Ted will promptly tell you l can't see it myself, When We mention that he is the most all-around boy in our class. Popular in athletics, scholarly in the classroom, and quite socially inclined, is it any Won- der that we think he's tops ? LESTER SOYKA Les had no trouble adjusting himselt when he came to us from St. Rita's. We learned to admire his trankness and ap- preciate his subtle sense of humor. EDWARD STUDE Ed seems anxious to leave school. l-le's enjoyed knowing us but is eager to stay on the farm. He is already speaking in terms of acres and acres. ARTHUR VAN ACKER Art was the only one surprised when the class elected him class president. He's really filled with ambition and happy to look back on a splendid record ot scholas- tic achievement. 4185 ad SUCCBQJQ T 4433 OW GLORIA VICKSTROM Gloria is a firm believer that Things done by halves are never done right. Her whole-hearted cooperation and attractive personality were ever present. EUGENE WESTERMAN Westy is the most easy-going gentlef man we know. His whole attitude sug- gests Why do it today, there's always tomorrow. ROBERT WESTERMAN IOY New lite was added to the class when Bob came to St. Edward in his junior year. His quick wit and ready smile have made an indelible impression on those who know him. ZIMMERLI Ioy is considered quiet by many, but un- derneath that exterior she has a quick retort when joking and is just as fun-love ing as her neighbor. She plans to become a nurse or secretary in the near future. From the capabilities she has shown, we know she'll succeed. 'lflfe Q0 joffl 419i CVM ATTENTION-all members of the class of '48 Draw closer if you would learn your fate. By a special gift of foolish prophecy, Your career in future years, you may see. For some there is joy, others gloom. Some will handle jewels, others a broom. Some gain fame-the good book shows, But read it yourself and see how it goes. Shy and reserved was Faith in her youth, Never deserving a word of reproof. Now office manager of a huge concern, Her time and attention to business is turned. For States Attorney Ted's our man. He comes from such a legal clan. The knowledge he procured at Loras, ls the kind of stuff that never bores us. Anna Mae and Phyllis were buddies in school, And now to their own they lay down the rule. Phyllis teaches Art at a fine Academy While Anna Mae's disecting frog's anatomy. A farmer's life, thatfs for mel Proclaimed lack Miller heartily. Give me acres of land-and an easy job, And a wife who suits me and my brother Bob.' 1 Gur Bernie now leads A band of great renown. He's playing at the Aragon And is the talk of the town. Twelve new Fords all in a row, But the uniformed drivers steal the show. Here comes the boss-you can tell by his clothe Gene Westerman G Co. is right on its toes. Two of the last names on our alphabet For Gloria and Ioy you need not fret Neither girl is at a loss- They're secretaries for a handsome boss. Bob Westerman now manages Block CS Kuhl. To arrive late is still his rule. He's a handsome man and knows his fate Is to be the best dressed man in '58. Quite a woman, our friend Ioyce! The belle of the ball and the boys' choice. Often she's found decorating the hall. As for parties-she's chairman of them all. POP QC ... S 4205 And Ierry now makes nurses gay When not performing operations, What title? did we hear you say? Why- Outstanding Doctor of the Nation . Success for Art was truly meant For once he was our president. He now owns a fleet of trucks And spends his leisure shooting ducks. A cheer leader was Chucky in high school days Turning cartwheels with ease that did amaze. As Athletic Directoress, her talent displays She's still vivacious in many ways. They say they're taking pictures For the '58 Co-Ed Word. They've hired a great photographer. You've guessed it, Quirin, Edward. Stop at the sign of the Black 61 Blue Seal At such prices no one could squeal. Says manager Les, and his assistant Don Ott We've everything that Maxwell Street's got. Riepls a druggist as everyone nose . Filling prescriptions for head, heart and toes. No longer with Van's-believe it or not Working for others was just not his lot. For him great things we do predict Since many a problem Humple did inflict. As truant officer, he's so daring He returns them to school while they're Sophisticated Katie Baum Now plays an active part. Her work is beautifying women Which really is an art. Corky is a prominent artist On the staff of the Chicago Tribune, He sketches all the characters For many well-known cartoons, Society lady of our class ln praise of her great signs do show. For Pat Boyer has gone far As a writer of scenario. As musical preludes faded away The radio announcer was heard to say. Don't turn elsewhere-let us entertain Warehouse 39-pianist, Robert Cane. First a dancer, little known. Today to Paris she has flown. Her name in bright lights does glow. For Lois is the star of the show. still glaring . . . enior Cfadfi For Pat Dietz we do rejoice She's found the joy that suits her choice. Many hours she spends as a stenographer For a very busy realtor. Our rugged Iohn Chapin Who in school had few cares Is now top scorer With the Chicago Bears. Wedding Bells claimed Rosie's attention She didn't waste time on careers. She's busy as a model housewife Raising little dears. And Larry the Senator, Now in Washington D. C. we find Solving all the problems With his supersonic mind. Fifth Avenue shops have great renown. Shoppers come from Swanky Town. They're anxious for Dolly's new creation A Z-piece suit that's quite a sensation. To be a great mechanic Was this lad's first ambition. And Larry Ostdick has made good With his V-8 intuition. Down the corridor dressed in white Walks Lou Ann by day and night. Administering aid to those in need She brings good cheer, and does good deeds. Number please Who said that? Why, who else could it be? But the Konstanzers Bell Telephone employees. An accountants job for Ranny He'll work twelve hours a day. He has his eye on the future When he'l1 be a C.P.A. Everything for the Iunior Miss A little of that and a bit of this. Co-owners, Boots and Gin Have found their business in an upward spin. Now working with Albert Einstein His name is Mandernach, Gus, And all the great men of our time When perplexed, to him do rush. We knew him as a singer bold. A protector of the weak we're told, From early practice at the bar Benno now pleads cases near and far. 4215 Our Pies bright and popular Has his head in the clouds every day. He has a wonderful job now As top man for the T.W.A. Here's another of the Class of '48. She meddles each day with sodium nitrate. It was easy getting places, she's in the know Rosemary Doherty found a substitute for H2O. Iim Knaak, so quick and studious From whom enthusiasm pours, Certainly is a Big Shot now For he manages a chain of stores. Our Ken, shy and quite reserved Was always interested in books. I-Ie's attained a job of dignity At the publishing house of D. C. Cook. Behind a desk in an outer-room Sits Pat Doherty in the white of a nurse, But she is planning soon to say I will for better or for worse! Cashier, salesman. athlete-all three But that's what you'd expect him to be. He labors not for the money he gets, lack Knott works for the halibut . Again he won the yearly prize But this to us is no surprise. Bill Huber who had such quiet zest Has a Class A farm in the middle-west. Big Ray, tall and dignified Abandoned his Model He now owns the Chicago Aurora and Elgin And can afford a Cadillac coupe. ln this business you really make cash. From morn till night we've seen Ed dash. His Used Car Lot is bulging its seams Here you can buy the car of your dreams. The Army Air Corps took our Victor And in '48 left just his picture. But now he's really on his own Making weekly flights between here and Rome CONCLUSION The meter and rhythm take no prize For poet's are born-not made, you realize Yet it's been fun. That's a fact.

Scored St. Edward 12 - West Chicago 7 We met our first opponent of the season on Vlest Chicago's field. The first quarter found our men shaky and W. C. scored the first touchdown and kicked the extra point. Chapin broke through on a 25-yard run just before the half. Score stood 7-6 when the whistle blew. The third quarter found Chapin scoring another touchdown. Greatly encouraged the team held on firmly and came through with a 12-7 victory. This is the first time our boys took the opening game of the season. St. Edward 26 - St. Procopius 0 St. Edward powerhouse took this game without much effort. The victory wasn't too impressive. Backfielders Berna, Manning, and Van Acker each scored a touchdown. Lossau, inter- cepted a pass and scored. Klinger kicked the two extra points. St. Ed- ward had won its first Conference game. St. Edward 14 - Aquin of Freeport 7 Our squad traveled to Freeport for this game. Filled with energy and en- thusiasm we started out strong and scored a touchdown and the extra point. Aguin came to life in the second quarter and scored on a long pass. The extra point made the score 7-7 at the half. Aquin was out to beat usl Our boys met the challenge by turning on the power and scored again in the third quarter. ln the dwindling moments of the game we were down in scoring ter- ritory again. The game had a record share of thrills since Aquin was in there gunning for an upset. St. Edward 19 - St. Thomas of Rockford 0 This was one of the most impres- sive victories of the season. The keen 4485 competitive spirit, ability, and courage. were in evidence throughout the four quarters. We were high spirited and the plays were run with almost perfect timing. Even Greg True felt good about this one. St. Edward 25 - St. Mary's of Des Plaines U This game marked the fifth straight win of the season and our second con- ference victory. The game started with St. Mary's driving deep into St. Ed's territory. Late in the first quarter the Green Wave started rolling and from then on things really happened. St. Edward 7 - Immaculate Conception 19 St. Edwards winning streak was snapped at the Elmhurst game. Both teams were undefeated in the confer- ence round. lt was a rough, high- spirited game in which the St. Edward boys kept up the fight but faltered un- der tension and strain. The boys faced their biggest test of the season but failed to click. Over-eagerness to Win seemed to be responsible for this de- feat. As the score indicatese-it was just one of those off days . St. Edward 42 - St. Mary's, Woodstock 0 The Green Wave blasted its way through St. Mary's team, and they bowed to us. This was our last game of the season and played on home ground. The boys seemed determined to make up for last week's defeat. We were clicking right from the start and things ran smoothly in our favor. With the help of two touchdowns by way of pass interceptions by Berna, a field- goal by Klinger, and a drop kick made by Rugloski, the team finished up its first victorious season.
