Coczc .sa .XL lJIlili0I.l'J Axsixnuil Cuaclz Fred Janke, former University of Mich- igan captain, is head football coach of the Gaels and is ably assisted by Allen Diebold. former Michigan State College quarterback. Both men were outstanding players on their respective college teams and are a highly prized coaching pair. Janke took over the reins at St. Johnls in 1943 and started the Gaels on the upgrade. Janke went into the service in 1944 and Al Diebold took over and coached successful teams in 1944-45. Janke came back from service in 1946 and coached the Gaels to their best season in many years, ably assisted by Diebold. Page Twenty-oils FOOTBALL SEASON The football season of 1946 will always be remembered as one of the Gaels' most successful gridiron years, with a record of seven victories and two defeats. The crush- ing, running and passing atack of he Blue and Gold netted the Gaels an aggregate total of 203 points against their opponents' com- bined total of 9G markers. The Gaels opened their season with their old rivals, Vandercook Lake. To the tune of 19 to G the Gaels gained sweet revenge for past lickings at the Jayhawks' hands. Big George Schramm rammed over for two of the Gaels' touchdowns in this contest and Tom O'Dowd took a pass from .lim McQuil- lan for the other one. George Schramm con- verted on one out of three place kicks for the extra points. The Gaels tucked their lirst Catholic League of Southern Michigan victory under their belts in their next game when the Blue and Gold shut out a visiting Resurrec- tion of Lansing eleven 20 to 0. Fleet Tom Hagen broke away on a couple of long dashes for two touch downs and George Schramm barreled over for the other one. Scnramni sent two out .oi three boo.g from placement through the uprights for the extra points. A 26 to G victory over the Trojans of East .lackson was the Gaels' third straight win of the 1946 campaign, .lim McQuillan tossed aerials tO Tom O'Dowd and .Tim Cavender and Schramm. Jerry Sykes powered over for the other two touchdowns. Schramm split the uprightis with two out of four boots for the points after touchdown. A rampaging Gael eleven added St. Mary's of Flint to their list of victims in the Motor City in a free scoring 32 to 13 contest. Schramm topped the Gaels in scor- ing with three TD's, while Tom O'Dowd took an aerial for the fourth tally. Jim Mc- Quillan dashed over for the iifth score and Schramm converted two of five kicks from placements for the extra points. HVictory No. 5 was the Gaels' fifth straight and their second Catholic League triumph. The Blue and Gold administered a 10 to 19 thumping to the Tigers of Battle Creek St. Philip's in Withington Stadium, October 20. Schramm again was the big gun in the Gael attack, tallying three times, while Hagen scampered 64 yards for an- other, and Ralph Skrocki, Gael right tackle, pounced upon a Battle Creek fumble in the Food City team's end zone for the final TD. Schramm sent four boots through the cross bars for four extra points in six attempts. The Gaels met their Waterloo and their first defeat of the campaign at Lansing Sunday, October 27, in Pattengill Field. The bewildered Gael defense permitted the big Lansing St. Mary's team to score on them twice in the first half before the Gaels got back in the light. A determined St. FOOTBALL TEAM 1.

Page Twenty-Iwo FOOT BALL SEASON John's assault was good for two scores against the Capital City eleven in the third period, with Tom OlDowd registering both of the touchdowns on passes to knot the score at 13-13. With about a minute re- maining in the contest, Tom Hagen sped back to fling a screen pass to George Schramm, but the tall Lansing line that charged in reached up and hit Hagen's pass and the ball bobbled around in the air until big Bruce Nakafor, Lansing guard, reached up and pulled the ball into his arms and raced to the St. .lonns two-yard line, where he fumbled and the ball went out of bounds. XVith 30 seconds left in the battle, Carmen Moceri, driving St. Mary's fullback, bucked over for the deciding tally as the game ended, to give the Gaels a heart-breaking 20 to 13 total. The Gaels hit the victory trail again in their next Catholic League game, when they traveled to Ann Arbor to dish out a 12 to 0 defeat to the Shamrocks of St. Thomas. Schramm crashed over for both of the St. Johnls scores and missed both of his boots for the extra points. In preparation for their big game with St. Mary s, the UHCLS released the fury of their scoring punch on straight football plays and produced a all to 19 victory over a scrappy St. Augustine of Kalamazoo eleven at NVithington Stadium. Despite the wet, muddy field, the Gaels went right to work to pile up a lead before the second and third stringers took over. A repetition of the Army's famous touchdown twins, 'tDoc Blanchard and Glen Davis, in the form of Fullback George Schramm and Left Halfback Tom Hagen cut loose to tally three touchdowns each. Schramm smashed over for two TD's on plunges of one and six yards and took a pass from McQuillan for the other score. Hagen dashed around end for two scores on a 40 and 50-yard dash and on a fourth down pass play he took an from McQuillan to romp ten yards to Schramm had a field day kicking points. His educated toe spiraled five out of six place kicks through the uprights for five extra points. XVith a league title and the Catholic foot- ball supremacy of Southern Michigan hang- ing squarely in the balance, the Celts of St. Mary's and the Gaels of St. .Iohn's clashed in Withington Stadium before 10,000 people, the largest crowd ever to witness a pigskin contest in this city. Late in the second period the unbeaten Southsiders completed a long pass to put the ball on the Gaels' 8- yard line. From here Fullback Weed plung- ed over, giving the Celts a 7 to 0 margin at half-time. Play seesawed back and forth, until St. Mary's ground out another TD late in the third stanza, to finish the scoring for the afternoon. Tackling and blocking were both sharp and crisp, with the clean play of both teams recognized by all, a game that was a credit to both squads. FOOTBALL TEAM 7. Ralph Skrockig 8. Bill liellyg El.

Page Twenty-Ihreu :sand Saw The Annual John-St. Mary Game BASKETBALL SEASON The Gaels entered the 1947 basketball season with a veteran team and were again under the tutelage of Bill Mault, who was starting his fourth season at St. Johns. Mault had available eight returning play- ers from last year's varsity from which he could mold his team. Bill McCluskey, Jim Cavender and George Schramm saw con- siderable action at. the forward posts, while .lim McQuillan, Tom Hagen, Bob Nichols, Tommy O'Dowd and Dick Schramm handled the guard duties for the Gaels. With these lads as the nucleus of the squad, St. John's presented an extremely formidable aggre- gation for all opponents. Making their season debut at Lansing against Resurrection, in a cold Lansing Eastern gym, the Gaels quickly took control of the game from the start and went on to win 33-16. On the day after Christmas, St. John's met Kalamazoo St. Augustine in the newly inaugurated Catholic Invitational basketball tournament. The game was played on the Jackson High School court and was recog- nized as a league encounter. Little could be said of either team, the Gaels dropped a 27-25 decision after leading 15-13 at half- time. The next evening Grand Rapids Catholic Central, a class A school, furnished the op- position for the Gaels, who went to work in the second half to white-wash the visitors -L7-19. Finals were held on Saturday night with a non-league St. John's-St. Mary's clash as the consolation game. The smaller Gaels fought valiantly against the Celts' height, but were turned back 39-33. McCluskey lead the Gaels, scoring with 11 points. The Hrst game of the new year was a league tilt at Ann Arbor against a stubborn St. Thomas quintet. St. John's lost in an overtime 39-35. It was close all the way. Witli an off-night from the league schedule, the Gaels invaded Napoleon and came home with a 47-31 victory. This gave St. John's a 500 percentage for the season, with three victories and the same number of losses. Back into league competition, the Gaels played host to a lanky Lansing St. Mary squad. Tom O'Dowd sent the game into an overtime, when he dropped in an all-inipor- tant free throw with a minute of play re- maining. St. John's iced the contest in the extra stanza on George Schrammis two- pointer, 26-24.

St. Thomas of Ann Arbor offered St. John's their second opportunity for revenge when they journeyed to Jackson for a re- turn contest, and the Gaels quickly lapped this up with a 42-23 score. The Gaels took a night off from their strenuous Southern Michigan Catholic league and promptly administered a 41- defeat to the Napoleon Pirates. Although the play was a bit ragged in the first half, the locals dug down deep and came up with a smooth brand of basketball in the last stanza to come out on top at the finish Highly in hopes of gaining a second place tie in league play, the St. John's quin- tet took the Iioor against a revitalized Lan- sing St. Mary aggregation whom they had defeated earlier in the season. Yet the re- vengeful-minded Big Blues were not to be denied and matched the Gaels point for point for three thrilling periods.

Chick Young emerged with the game's scoring honors, 15 points, on his pet pivot shots. Playing sparkling basketball, St. John's turned in a sterling 46-21 victory over St. Phillip's High in spacious Percy Jones gym- nasium. The precision-working Jacksonians set an unrelentless pace and after jumping into an early 8 to 4 lead, they were never headed. Guard Bob Nichols poured through 17 markers to pace the Gaels in scoring. In quest of their tenth victory, the Blue and Gold journeyed upstate to Flint to take on a fiery St. Mary's quintet. The trip proved fruitful for the Gaels, as they walked off the court with a 52-44 victory hanging from their belts. Action was rough and ready throughout, a total of 44 personal fouls being called on both squads. Though St. John's were never behind the Flintites, they kept the game close all the way. St. John's High School climaxed their regular season schedule by turning in an impressive 47-39 win over a persistent Re- surrection squad. Shifting from a zone to a man-to-man defense throughout the game, the Gaels had the Lansing five in a con- stant state of confusion. Coach Bill Mault started an all-senior team, as it was to be the last league battle for these players. Tournament time and the Gaels were pitted against a strong East Jackson aggre- gation, co-title holders of the County league. St. Johnls reached their scoring peak of the season when they bu.rned the nets for a total of 58 points, while the Trojans col- lected 46. Towering Ted Weiss bucketed 17 points to keep Coach Mault's charges ahead all the way.

Page Thirty-mu' 4 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The brilliant sun of a gay September morning in the year 1935 smiled down upon a g1'oup of thirty-two happy children, whose faces were lighted with a radiant gleam of anticipation-a happiness and anticipation which can result only from the thrills and mysteries of a new adventure. They were for the first time treading the pafth to the steep heights of knowledge and were soon to be enrolled under the banner of the vast army of scholars seeking to enrich their mental store. Their little hearts tlutered with wonder of the future, but their inno- cent minds were filled with the confidence pvircoming any misgivings they may have iac . Our first trial of reading, writing and arithmetic taught by Sister Mary Felix be- came real sources of pleasure and enjoy- ment to us. At a glance, the tiny aisles on one side of the room were occupied by neat rows of little bean poles with skirts and sweaters hanging from them, while on the opposite side the little gentlemen were sit- ting siifly attired in their Iirst long trou- sers, all sincere in their purpose of educa- tion. NVe journeyed through the grammar grades, meeting with many obstacles, but with the assistance of our kind teachers- Sisters Fidelis, Owen, Ann Dominic, Noella, Bernard and Mary .lane-we succeeded in overcoming all obstacles, and in June, 1943, were informed that in September we would be allowed to begin our High School course. An unforgetable initiation prepared us for whatever the year had to offer, which included among other events the rapid changes and remarkable improvements by Father Duffy, transforming our school and the surroundings into an attractive institute of learning. As freshmen we thought that High School would be comparatively easy, for during the preceeding years we had looked forward to our High School days as the end of all troubleg but we soon realized our mis- take, for here the real iight began. True to freshman instinct, we, 52 in number, asked many questions that were laughed at by our more sedate companions. Our hopes were not depressed, however, until we discovered, much to our sorrow, that to retain the title of Freshmen, one must need be studious. Algebra and Latin were perfectly safe in their respective places, but we wished them to remain there. However, Sister Carmella gave assurance that this trying season would pass, and so would we. To tell the truth, we did pass and then began more difficulties. H50 Sophsf' One feels much more impor- tant when one is called a 'tSoph. However, in our second year the skies were much bluer and we gradually found ourselves SENIORS IN BETTER DAYS I in You Ililllll' tlzcui? Sci- PHP? -I-l.

XVe held our heads high enough to see nearly all of the future glories, and since those same store houses of knowledge were not as yet overburdened, they did not readily droop because of weight at least. lt was during this interval that Sister Carmella again warned us that we were slowly but surely coming out into the light of day. XVe made our social debut by sponsoring a school dance for the students of both St. John and St. Mary High Schools, high- lighted by the dramatic music of the Nick E. Lodian. During this eventful year the high school students, in collaboration with the music department, presented their me- morable Plantation Frolicsf' The program, under the direction of Father Baird, dis- played the talents of our future crooners.

Yes, at last we are the impor- tant Juniors, but the acquisition of the title cost the class seven of its members. Our future looked bright, but the present dis- played hard work. There was much Sorrow on September SJ, 19-15, for it was that day that the priestly work of Father Duffy came to an end, Dur- ing his three years as pastor at St. John's, he gave generously of his time and energy lor school improvements and the promotion of athletics, and the present students are benefiting from his tremendous effort. During this year, several dances were promoted under the sponsorship of Father Baird for the benefit of the Spectrum, These social affairs were attended by meni- bers of St. John and St. Mary High Schools, and the large representation made possible the publication of the paper until the close of the school year. At the close of the Junior year, the an- nual Junior-Senior picnic was held at Pleas- ant Lake, chaperoned by the Fathers Coyle, Baird and Schmidt. It was a pleasant event heartily enjoyed by all, although the follow- ing day Polly's was swarmed by picnic en- thusiasts seeking relief for their sunburn. The Junior-Senior Banquet completed the year of 1945-46. A toast to a distin- guished class of Seniors on the fruitful years to come was given by our Junior pres- ident, George Schramm. A toast was also given to the Juniors, saying that we should add a brilliant chapter to the history of the school, laughing as much, playing less, and working harder. Father Coyle gave the main address and wished the Seniors of last year a rosy future. Our Senior term found us very busy un- der the strict but friendly rule of Sister SENIORS IN BETTER DAYS ian You name them? Sec Page ll.

School Retreat! Father Mereto gave an inspiring retreat. It settled deep into the hearts of the Seniors, for this retreat was thi last of their lives as students at St. Jo n. Russ Derby was the main attraction at the Cascades Clubhouse during the Junior- Senior Banquet. Our gratitude and appreci- ation go to the Juniors for a memorable and enjoyable evening. We had looked forward to our gradua- tion as the one big moment of our life, but when we knew that it was really drawing near, sorrow was mingled with our joy, for we were loathe to leave the place that had harbored us for twelve short, happy years. lf there is one sentiment which fills our hearts in an outstanding manner as we de- part, it is that of gratitude. No student has ever gone through his twelve years of study and preparation without becoming deeply indebted to many people. Of course, our first 'tThank You goes to our parents who have made our attendance here possible. 1'ilt,l1e1'S Coyle, Baird and Zavatsky also de- serve our sincerest expressions of gratitude for they have given their entire lives to mold and fashion us according to the Per- fect Model. Nor can we depart without ex- tending a token of gratitude to the Sisters who in so many known and unknown ways have given us valuable assistance during our years of training. And so we bid farewell to our dear Alma Mater, anxious to be on our way, yet sorry to leave these sacred halls and their many wonderful memories. INA! vi THE SENIOR PLAY Page Thirty-four 6756151 QJOEIIZ To each of Saint John's faculty We breathe deep gratitude today, For they, with their Christ-like interest. Have encouraged us on our way. Whenever we've been in trouble, And threatening clouds grew gray, With their prayers and words of kindness, They have scattered all clouds away. At graduation our memories Sketch a 'picture of golden hue, And kindle our hearts with grateful love, Our dear Saint John's to you. You have given freely of Sacred Lore, You have trained us well for future life, Your treasures of ages, priceless store, Our armor and sword for our daily strife.

Last, but far from least, JACK LEVENGOOD leaves his quiet friendliness and ability to act on the stage to Joanne Watters. In addition to the above, we bequeath to the Junior class as a whole: 1. The right and duty to carry the singing at daily Mass. 2. The spirit of good sportsmanship which we manifested during the ioy of victory and the sadness of defeat. A Any remaining property which belongs to us and which has not been heretofore disposed of, we leave to our very dear friends, the Freshmen and Sophomores. In witness whereof, we, the class of 1947, have to this, our will, set our hands and seal this eighth day of June, Anno Domini, one thou- sand nine hundred and forty-seven. Page T11 irty-eight . ,., I LOOKING AHEAD As a roving reporter, gazing into the crystal ball of the future: I hear the soft, sweet voice of station WIBM's sensational singing star, REGINA MORRISSEY. The song is familiar, oh yes, it could only be those lines of sweetness, vitality and genuine expression of which such an artist is capable, that is, Schubert's Serenade Record lovers are playing over and over her spirited album of Barrel House Blues. Regina's super-artistry and tunefulness are steadily increasing her rep- utation as a famous American singr. Would you like to buy a fine tractor to- day, madam? is the question of TOM POWERS, who is manager of the Powers Farm Implement Store. 'They are run on atomic energy and the price is as low as can be expected. In the Delray Se-xtet, now slated for a three-day engagement at the Dalton, we find two of its members, DICK SMITH and DICK SCHIED, who have advanced to sec- ond and third saxophones, respectively. Although JEANNINE HARRISON is not the athletic type, she is girls' sport direc- tress at Queen's School. Classmates are baffled by her tennis techniques, the form seems perfect, but she never hits the ball. Horses know that she is afraid of them and run off with her on any pretense, and until recently, Jeannine believed that a shortstop was a small football player. At 6:55 o'clock each evening, the Dande- lion Trio, featuring PEARL LASKEY, MARY JANE O'CONNELL and EILEEN GALLAGHER, can be heard over the five- minute Duz commercial which follows the Lizbeth Guatemala Beauty Aid program, sponsored by COLLIN MICHALSKY, its successful new business executive. The man with the winning smile, pleas- ing manner and dignified leather traveling bag is DONALD MYERS. He appears very successful in his chosen field, and as he mounts the steps of the houses we find him proudly displaying' his fine array of Fuller Brushes. CONNIE SICA, almost twenty-two years old, and a shining star at La Belle Picture Company, is about to play her Hrst grown- up part-one that will instantly make her the most envied girl in the land, for her leading man in the Croak of the Frog is none other than HENRY NOPPE himself. PATRICIA HARPow1sK1, the young, American pianist, has delighted audiences on both sides of the Atlantic with her deli- cately expert performances. She is at pres- ent touring the Eastern states in a concert series. And it is rumored that in the next election she will run for Mayor of Jackson. A promising career in the field of medi- cine is assured JIM MCQUILLAN, who re- cently had unusual experience in the case of one of DUANE HORSCH'S famous race Page Thirty-n ine ,......--.... ...... .....--...---- C O Compliments of SILVER FOAM TAVERN 1442 Cooper Street Jackson, Michigan WEST END GRILL Steaks Chops-Chicken-Sea Foods tServed to suit your tasteb 2109 W.

It seems a young Iilley called Mickey Finn, was troubled by constant headaches and through much strenuous ex- perimental research .lim discovered an ef- fective cure. CELINE GIFFIN can now be seen in the distinguished uniform of an airlines stewardess. She is really Hying high. BlLL KELLY, a nationally famous char- acter and a prominent lawyer making his offices in Jackson, just won a sensational case, although the defending odds were on who was the rightful owner of a valuable Persian cat. His secretary, ROSANNE DY- KOWSKI, carries on her work in English, French and three dialects of Chinese. A third of her day is spent answering ques- tions over the telephone, another third re- ceiving clients, and still another keeping unadmitted visitors posted on the inside workings of Bill's conferences. One of the best examples of small band jazz is the King Cole Trio, with RAYMOND HORSCH on drums, RITA FREY at the piano, and JIM DUGAL on cello. Today their small jazz group enjoys as much suc- cess and prominence as a name band. Behind the counter of O'Connell's Super Food Market we see JERRY leisurely scratching his head with a new Eversharp Repeater pencil. He is attempting to add the bill for a small rush order just phoned in by a favorite customer, GEORGINA GA- LARDI. At last he calls out for the delivery boy in the back room. JERRY FITZ- PATRICK yawns and slowly stirs from the sacks of potatoes and onions upon which he was supposedly taking inventory, and very ambitiously lumbers into answer the sum- mons. He sets about the task of loading the boxes of groceries into the back of the wagon, then gracefully mounts his bicycle and rides down Bates Street. In the window of the same store we see a colorful poster depicting the arrival of Darnum and Daily Brothers' Circus. A full page portrait of RALPH SKROCKI, the Star performer, is seen. Ralph is the sensational main attraction. His daring 100-foot bare- back ride on a Billy Goat thrills the excited spectators. ELLEN BULLINGER is the chief de- signer at GarHnkel's Department Store. A few snips of her talented scissors and she matches moods with her crisp as-all-out doors casual wardrobes. HAROLD WINTERS is very good rais- ing competition against Harry James. They both have their own radio programs, but judging frnm Harold's fan-mail, we see Mr. James' fame is gradually declining. RALPH KELLER has just designed a new flying post office, which is equipped to cancel, sort and deliver mail enroute. Postmaster General Keller said that this, his latest invention, was his most valuable con- Ptzge Furly LOOKING AHEAD tribution toward a more rapid postal com- munication. Now vaguely visible in the thick mist and fog surrounding us, we come upon the ancient sign of the barber, a freshly painted red and white candy striped pole. The large neon heading informs us that GEORGE SCHRAMM is the proprietor and head sur- geon. His specialties are close shaves and delicate manicures. Propped in the first chair and buried deep in lather, we Find the patient is JACK LEVENGOOD, present owner of Jackls Jewelry Store. In another section of downtown Jack- son, there is a cluttered workmanlike studio that suggests a prehistoric dentist's office. On the door is dabbed the name MARTIN O'CONNOR, D.D.T. IDoctor of Dental Tor- turei. There, amid benches and cabinets, stacked with tools, walls adorned with hoops of wire chains, ropes. calipers, saws and chisels, we find the doctor busily con- structing new dentures. MARY TERESA DAILEY and PHYLLIS KAPLENSKI have just joined their con- structive and designing abilities together in their newly formed, order-your-new-home- by-mail-through-us company. Mary Teresa takes the orders and correspondent work, while Phyllis takes care of the building part. Now we meet the champion of the world of sports, BILL MCCLUSKEY, star center Helder of the violet and fuchsia clad Puddle- ford Scorpions. This well-known baseball team captured the World Series last season when in the deciding game Mick, with body tense. eyes alert, and exquisite coordination, scaled the Hag pole anfl stretching every muscle up and outward, intercepted a ter- rihc game-saving line drive. In her day nursery, PAT KARASEK is hopefully trying to quiet two little boys who are tearfully fighting over an old bottle that once contained bright red nail polish. The scene changes, and across the street from St. .Iohn Church is FRANK FREIJNDL. He is manager o-f the Filling Station and is using his art of mechanics. This personality has retained fond mem- ories of his school and academic life. ALOYSIUS O'DELL, as Jackson County Truant officer, is furthering his ambitions by encouraging others' attendance at school. PAT HANLEY, as a distinguished authority on world events, presents an ex- planation on peacemaking in her volume of Four Cornerstones to Peace. Soon to come off the press will be her latest, and believed to be most popular, How to Prevent the Inevitable War with Russia. TOM O'DOWD is now in line for promo- tion to Rear Admiral in the American Navy. 9 Page Forty-one i QQQQQQQQQ-QQQXQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ-V ..------------------..--- ------..--,-- ------ -------- f....---- ::::::::o-o::-::::oo-::::oQ:::::: GIFFIN'S CAKES AND COOKIES ACME PIES AND DONUTS A.
