Mother replaces Sister Bernice Who is now teaching on the staff of St. John College in Cleve- land. It has been six years since Mother Was principal of Saint Vincent and We know she has noticed many changes in office facilities, the auditorium, study hall and especially in the new library. We take great pleasure in Welcoming her back and extend the best Wishes of the student body for many more years as principal of the school on the hill. -3- Q S eraors Pves enx 5 If Q, WU, .

WE'RE OFF! After anticipating the trip to New York for many weeks, the big moment finally arrived. Parents and many members of the student body bade us farewell', at Akron's Pennsylvania Station while popping flashbulbs and cheerful goodbyes marked our departure. We invaded the Big City,' early the next morning. Upon our arrival at the hotel, we were ES surprised to see Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt as she was leaving the hotel. Via If the subway we traveled to Columbia University, where we attended con- W74 ferences all day, learning the correct procedure for building better year- ullf books. That evening we were enthralled by the Rockettes, the greatest precision dancers in the world, and the movie, 'tAn American in Paris , ff' at Radio City Music Hall. Bright and early Saturday morning we boarded l a Udouble-decker bus for the University to attend the last of the con- ferences. A luncheon at the Hotel McAlpin closed the convention. Satur- day afternoon was spent browsing through many exclusive shops. The twinkling lights of the city looked like fairyland in the stratosphere on the roof of the R.C.A. Building Saturday night. Sunday was begun in . grand style with Solemn High Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Our week- mf ll end was climaxed Sunday afternoon by a thorough sight-seeing tour, from Fifth Avenue to the Bowery, which ended at Pennsylvania Station. As the train moved westward nothing remained but the happy memories. ALL ABOARD V 2? X Bnffom Ifmv: T. Wozniak, Sister Bernice, L. Fruscella, E. Kidder, M. A. Hutch- mwl inson. Row 2: lVl.

ALL GREAT THINGS begin in a small Way-thus began the art program at St. Vincent. This past year, Sister Vincentia held classes in room 301. However the students do not mind these present inconveniences. All for the sake of art, they say. Mother Clare plans gradually to transform a large room on the third floor of the grade school into an ultraemodern studio. Pictured above are some of the students taking advantage of a lovely autumn day to get some sketching done.

The event is the annual Halloween dance, The Sleepy Hollow Ball, given by the sophomore class. Frankie Reynolds and his orchestra supplied the haunting melodies. Blinking owls and leering pumpkins changed the gym into an eerie setting for Ichabod Crane. Traditional Halloween fare, cider and doughnuts, was served during intermise sion to John Meadows and Margie Dett- ling by Rosemary Caruso. The dance was our first social event of the year and a challenge to other classes both in beauty of decorations and financial success. The sophomores deserve a big hand. Ylhll - Ylhll 4. Q ..

BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER football games, St. Vincent Band did its job with a spirit com- parable to a band of much greater size. Under the direction of Mr. Edward Jones, a student A teacher from Akron University, the big little band gave an inspiring performance in both musical skill and marching ability. Long hours of faithful practice enabled the band to give these performances consistently. Their snappy music enlivened all the cheer rallies and bol- stered the Irish spirit when things looked dark. The Ladies Auxiliary of the St. Vincent Booster QQ Club aids the band financially. They have spon- sored card parties and other like events to pro- vide the money for new instruments. The foot- ball team will always have loyal support as long as the green and White marches at the games. .XS S ZW s Z ..i '. .. 24 - 4. Q .

The Saints had a veteran combine with more than their share of dash and spirit. Foreseeing a good season for the team, their followers expected and were gratified by many victories packed with thrills. The Fighting Irish compiled one of the best records in the schoo1's history, de- spite the fact that they played more games than usual. Every man produced and as a conse- quence the team succumbed to defeat just three times in a heavy ten game schedule. Since they were decisively beaten by only one team, Erie Cathedral Prep, it is plain to see just how potent the Irish were. The second loss, by a slim 14 to 7 margin, was to Barberton, a team that was always in the top ten in the state. Their last defeat was absorbed in mud and snow at the -25.- hands of Buchtel. This game was lost in the final seconds and could have gone either way. The victims of the Irish were Kenmore, East, Springfield, Canton Catholic, West, St. Mary's, and Cuyahoga Falls. The taste of victory was especially sweet against West High and our friendly rivals, St. Mary's. The Irish had won five straight last year before the underdog cow- boys stampeded the Irish into their first defeat. Against St. Mary's Martin Testa added insult to the defeat by kicking a field goal. Aiding the eleven seniors in compiling this enviable record were juniors Ronnie D'Alessio, Chuck Pfeil, Bob Brizes, Joe Elio, Larry Foore, Bill Starinki, Jerry Meyers, and Adeb Haddad. Sophomores were valuable substitutes. The parochial cham- pionship, and the best won-lose record in the city are testimony to the fact that the Irish were a credit to their coaches, faculty, and followers. ,Q if M, in , , K Ll - .Fu A Yx A ,f 3 ,, M154 -Af, sw, .wp '- N '32 mi ,x I ,.?':.54. :'g .s ,'-, 3 :'.. :', gfw Q2 Q 24 :-' :.- .

Coach Eddie Wentz's charges were led by co- captain and quarterback Louie Baldacci, who did the passing and signal calling. Louie gained All4City first team for his outstanding perform- ance throughout the season. Paul Slaven and Chuck Albanese, the mercury merchants of the backfield with their breakaway running, tied for scoring honors. Jerry Stitz, known well for his bone-crushing running, completed the backfield. On the frontline Jim Hallinan and Chick Kor- manik, a couple of strong tackles, opened gap- ing holes in the opposing line for the backfield. Dick Gauthier and Chuck Skidmore operated nicely from the guard positions. Chester Beke- leski proved one of the best centers in the dis- trict and received All-City recognition. Tony Zeller's booming kickofs put the enemy in the hole at the start of every game. Co-captain John Raub and Don Eisenhut, two glue-fingered ends, held down the flank position. On defense Red Hubbard kept the enemy from completing many passes while Don May and Jim Kline filled up the holes with jarring tackles. These spirited seniors inspired their teammates and were re- warded for their hard work with one of the best seasons in Irish history.

In twenty-five seconds the Irish drew first blood and stayed in com- mand the whole game. ROUGH ROAD AHEAD ST. VINCENT 14 - EAST 12 Capitalizing on the winged shoes of Paul Slaven, who scored both touchdowns, and the golden toe of Louie Baldacci, who kicked the extra points, the Irish edged a powerful and highly-favored East team. ST. VINCENT 0 -- ERIE PREP 23 The Irish took on the strong Pennsylvania Club, but from the start the out-sized Saints were not in the game. Erie was the only team to hold the Saints scoreless, 'twas sweet revenge for them. ST. VINCENT 41 - SPRINGFIELD TWP. 14 Everybody went into the act as the Saints rolled over a small and outclassed Spring- field team. This game produced for the Irish the highest total score of the season. ST.

Albanese and Baldacci led the way. ST. VINCENT 7 - BARBERTON 14 Although the Irish played their best game of the season, they broke out with a rash of fumbles that spelled defeat. Chuck Alba- nese slashed over for the Saint's lone tally. ST. VINCENT 6 - BUCHTEL 12 Buchtel pushed across the winning tally with only seconds remaining in the game. Jerry Stitz set up the St. V. touchdown with a forty-one yard 1'eturn of the opening kick- offg later he scored. ST. VINCENT 24 - ST.

Co-captains John Raub and Louie Baldacci had the honor of crowning her and presenting her with the football autographed by the entire team. Those attending Queen Aggie were Ann Donahue, Barbara Moffitt, Pat Snyder, Joanie Starner, and Peggy Wheeler. The Queen's escort was Jerry Stitz and the attendants were escorted by John Raub, Jim Censky, Louie Baldacci, Don May and Chet Bekeleski respectively. Al Day's Quintet played for the event. Senior boys conf structed the threeadimensional star. -71 Q Q Q ll umiines Generous Hearts DO UNTO OTHERS -s THANKSGIVING is 3. time of celebration and happiness. To- day, like their forefathers, Americans thank God for their freedom, their success and for just being citizens of the United States. With this idea in mind many give food to less fortunate families who have not shared so greatly in the benefits of our way of life. Two senior girls, Mary Ann Hutch- inson and Pat Mills prepare just one of the many food baskets given this year by gen- erous Americans who gave to make other happier. Announcer, Joe Weibel, looks over his notes while Rita Tersigni, Marie Raasch, and Larry Zerr watch intently as Joan Kirk points an ac- cusing finger at the Football Hero. The Drama Guild's Thanksgiving play, Football Hero, starred Jim Censky as Stan, the hero, r and Marie Raasch as Margie Winters, a beauti- ful but brainy girl. Margie's talent for Writing compositions prompts Stan to ask her to the dance. Trouble starts when Joan Kirk, Stan's jealous girl friend, discovers them. It all turns out well and ends on a happy note. ...gf-3... NM. Q VW QE A lfwsf gi-fu, 559 V . :Sf 54 91 ' wgw 5? img-QWQQ is W' i 'I W We ' ' , 1. fig f , 'waz wap, Q 1, ,,,,, My-,E 'Q , 3- gg si?

Littlest ngel Comes to Sta Q THE TRUE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS reigns in all its glory at the annual holiday formal. Sponsored by the junior class, the 1951-1952 event had for its theme A Little Bit of Heaven. Carrying out the religious motif in Window, balcony, wall, and center piece decorations was the work of -gg- the decoration committee. The finished product, topped off by soft lights and sweet music was admired by all who attended. Taking a special interest in the center piece were juniors Bob Ruf, Barbara Sullivan, Teresa Fellinger, Bob Brizes, and Adeb Haddad. Light is the eart That Sings - A .. Q as Hotfom. Now: M. Rett, R.

NTHE BEST OFFENSIVE TEAM that haS COITIG out of St. Vincent since I have been coaching here- In these Words Coach Wentz gave the best description of the 1951-1952 basketball team. Although the Saints lacked height, they made up for this defect with their excep- tional accuracy from the field. During the sea- son's 21 games, the Irish sharpshooters poured a total of 1329 points through the hoops to lead the other city teams in total points scored. Led by Chet Bekeleski, who caged 278 points, and Don Eisenhut with 269, who set new school scor- ing records, the Irish enjoyed another success- ful season which saw them win 11 games and lose 10. Of the 10 losses the Saints suffered, 8 of them were by margins of four points or lessg two of these were overtime contests. They reached their peak with a spectacular rally to upset a good Barberton team. Then, in the sea- son's finale, St. Mary again eked out a one-point victory. This disappointing loss in the last three seconds of play left the team stunnedg and Buch- tel, a team which the Saints mastered by 15 points earlier in the season, beat them in the district tournament. The team of 1951-1952 deserves congratulationsg their fine play and sportsmanship have been in keeping with the best traditions of St. Vincent High School. Rolfonz Roiv: W. Curley, C. Bekeleski, C.

DON LUCKETT CHET BEKELESKI ADEB HADDAD Center Forward Center The 1951-52 Basketball team was an experienced one. It was virtually the same team that three seasons before had gone undefeated in Freshman play and had won the Northeastern Ohio Freshman Tournament at Massillon by winning four straight games. The next year this same team, now playing for the reserves, compiled one of the best records a St. Vincent re- serve team ever had, winning 15 and losing only 1 game. In their junior year they played on the varsity for the first time and pulled one of the biggest tournament upsets by beating North, the city champions, 60-59. Led by Chet Bekeleski and Don Eisenhut who supplied the scoring punch, the Irish finished this season with an 11-10 record for a finale to four successful seasons. Chuck Albanese was always a threat with his long shotsg Louie Baldacci furnished the rebound work along with Don Luckett, an ac- curate one-hand artist. Jerry Stitz supplied an added punch with his drib- bling lay-ups. Helping out these six seniors were sophomores Bill Curley, Jack Mars and Lenny Gmerek and juniors Larry Foore, Adeb Haddad, Mike Sullivan, Cletus Young, and Chuck Pfeil.

THE SAINT VINCENT NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY claims its members from the ranks of the junior and senior classes. Officers this year included Don Taggart, Presidentg Barbara Moffitt, Vice-Presidentg Mary Lou Bauer, Secretaryg and Don Wood, Treasurer. The meet- ings were held twice monthly to plan and carry out forthcoming activities. Early September found the N.H.S. busily cutting out green V's for Friendship Day, an annual project of the society. In October they turned their eforts to the support of the United Fund Drive and surpassed any previous year's record. The next activity was the talent show in February, which has always been favorably received by the student body. In that annual event a variety of talent is chosen to represent the various classes and encourage bud- ding careers. The second semester was Iilled with such projects for N.H.S. members as presenting the art department with new easel- seats, awarding of pins to new members, sponsoring the administra- tion of the G.A.T. tests to six brainy seniors and bringing the alumni book up to date with the faces and life stories of its gradu- ate members. This year proved to be very interesting and educa- tional. With experience behind them, today's graduates look to the future prepared to accept the challenges of life, and become con- tributing citizens of our democracy.

Q 0 Throughou All Seasons HUIXG TO ,VICIJSS -, MUCH HARD WoRK goes into the Vincentian before it can come to the students in its finished form. Senior coveditors, Joe Weibel and Dick Giffels, have to make free quent trips to the printers. Here they are going over the dummy copy to be sure there are no costly errors. Below, Judy Schnur, Tom Jesser, and Joan McKim are Writ- ing Valentine telegrams for send- ers Linda Lembo, Mary Masturzo, and Jerry Stitz. Messages signed by everyone from secret admirers to best friends were received each period, delivered by Vincentian staff carriers. The staff meme bers sponsor the project to raise money for the paper. The project is traditional for Valcntine's Day. 1ll'Q'A1f T TO HEAR T Shamrock Staltlf Records .. . . ABOVE: With pencils, rulers, and many erasers the layout staff and artists worked diligently every night after school. Here Bob Brizes con- fers with co-editor Paul Gill on a measuring problem, While co-editor Rosemary Quinn uses a proportion scale in cropping a picture. Kathy Bell looks through the files for a missing pic- ture, and artists Margie Wozniak and Pat Kutsko attempt new drawings. Phil Pritt uses a threeaway ruler to mark off the right dimen- sions on a sheet. Upon the success of the business staff depends to some extent the contents of the yearbook. The amount of money turned in determines the length of the various sections. Here some mem- bers of the copy staff are consulting with the business staff. Business managers, Joan Kirk and Bob Wendelken, standing, are explaining the account book to Marian Huber while Carol Adams, Dick Theis, and Janet Worley listen at, tentively. John Raub and Tibby Kidder are checking the iiles. Q, Q 4, Seasonal Milestones THERE'S A RIGHT WAY to do everything. Dick Gmerek, copy co-editor explains the correct principles used in Writing good yearbook copy. Members of the staff include Nancy Schrady, Joan Starner, Sally Delagrange, Carol Conway, Ann Donahue, Dolores Caporaletti, Marie Raaschg and standing: John Blank, Larry McGlinchy, Jim Censky, Paul Slaven and Don Taggart. This group records everything from dances to football games so that a concise pic- ture of school life will be given. The unsung heroes of yearbook publications are the girls of the typing staff. Marjorie Mehigan, copy co-editor, explains a page to Shirley Riche ardson as Dottie Gresock and Mary Ann Danne- miller industriously Hnish their assignments. Behind them, Mary Ann Plell, Mary Ann Hun- ter, and Pat Snyder receive their instructions from Bobbie Moflitt, head typist. Some copy must be retyped many times before being handed to the printer, so the etlicient staff works overtime many evenings. ...Yl- 1 'W W., ,E W, 35' r L' W W ,,Q,, ,,,q ,, I Q' Q wsiif O O D X Summer With its Warm, sunny days is a pass to relaxa- tion.

A GRACIOUS SMILE All Good Things Must lEnd THE LIGHTER SIDE OF GRADUATION WE THE SENIORS OF 1952 hold beautiful mem- ories of our adolescent days in high school. Now as men and women we march forward into the opportunities that America offers and leave with you, the underclassmen, the facilities of this school. As we receive our diplomas we remem- ber well the first day that we entered the halls of St. Vincent. We were amazed at the large auditorium, the big red coke machine, and the library that was especially for our use. We grew with the school for four years. In these years we have given to God, three of our classmates- Mike Hayden, Bob McDowell, and Agnes Rataj -into the religious life, and one, Rose Marie Welsh, to Him forever. To the service of Uncle Sam, the class has given Auggie Fields and John Benson. We made many friendships, laughed at many jokes, and had very important serious moments. Since we are leaving the school on the hill, we should like to thank our teachers for their help, our friends for their fun, but most of all should like to thank God for giving us such a wonderful chance for education. We now know how to serve God and country much better than we did four years ago. The seasons have passed and have added up to a year. '-103- Go is Sanctuary Shines Forth Q . . GUIDE TO OUR GOAL THE NEW DECORATIONS IN ST. VINCENT l13,V6 made it one of the most outstanding churches in the city of Akron. The exquisite designs were created by European artists and took several months to complete. Rich color harmonies blend to impart a spirit of religious peace and gran- deur to all who enter the church. The ceiling is divided into four sections and adorned with symbols of the four cardinal virtues. The Walls are rose with gold-stripe borders. Tall pillar- like panels on the Walls are soft gray with gold adornments at the top, giving an illusion of great height. The stations are beautifully done in gold and ivory. Behind the side altars the walls are rose with elaborate gold and black designs. These are done skillfully to compliment the architecture. White altars and the statues of Mary and Joseph are very prominent in this masterpiece of design. The main altar, recently inlaid by Italian marble setters, consists of four colors of marble with patterns of gold. Behind the main altar is a complex pattern of the theo- logical virtues, with Christians, represented by doves, seen drinking from the cup of Charity. Magnificently done in red, black, and gold leaf, this is the highlight of all the decorations. On the sanctuary ceiling, the four evangelists are represented by liturgical symbols. -104- uniors HOME ROOM 109 Bottom Row: D. McKoski, R. Malloy, J. Herman, J. Hammontree, G. Klein, L.

THE HOMEROOM WITH A HEART. This title was given to junior homeroom 109 because they were first to reach their quota in the collection of mission dues. Under the presidential reins of Bob Brizes these boys worked very hard in many school activities. The class had fine athletic representation on the varsity football team in Ronnie D'Allesio, John Costello, Jerry Myers, Joe Elio, and Bob Brizes. Also, they had the Shamrock Triple Threat, Dave McKoski in the Bantam League. Nowhere in Hollywood could you find better actors than Frank McVan, Jack Kil- way, Mike Mutchler, and Tom Jesser, the 109 Drama Guild stars. These boys were given the task of sell- ing milk and came through in Wonderful style, every noon Phil Fellinger, Dave Gibson, Bob Monaci, Ron' nie D'Allesio, and Bob Frank could be found under the stage selling milk. They never turned a job down and with the motto, Be your duty great or small, do it well and do it all , they were a credit to our school. -105- blluniors Progress .. A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING and a lot of something go to make up our home room. A special unity has risen among us as we have worked together in the past two years. Our home room was very well repre- sented in the extra-curricular activities of the school. During the half-time shows at the football games we proudly watched our three majorettes-Nancy Mor- gan, Dolores Poje, and Joyce Querry, and one band member-Dolores Ondas. We also boasted members of the O. B. E., Spanish, French, Home Economics, and Chem-Phy Clubs. We were given the task of preparing refreshments for the two Junior-sponsored dances-the Christmas Formal and the Prom. Every- one agreed that the cookies and punch tasted swell. We were the first home room to fulfill our quota for the yearbook patron fee. We were also very generous in contributions toward the Society for the Propaga- tion of the Faith and the United Fund drive. All these activities helped to form a Junior class united in spirit-all ready for next year. HOME ROOM 104 Bottom Row M Nicewander, M. Pittenger, Y. Martin, B. Krizancic, C. Rolph, J.

WE ARE PROUD T0 sAY that we had the distinction of being the largest home room of Junior girls. During our third year we occupied the old library room. How many of you noticed the display our home room put up on the ofiice bulletin board? Each Junior Miss brought information on and a picture of an Akron Catholic Church. The art work was done by Sandy Hollander. Our home room was populated with members of the National Honor Society, the French, and the Spanish Club, the Home Economics Club and the Chem-Phy Club. Besides belonging to school clubs, our girls were active in sodalities. There were also a few taking the new art course. Marilyn Abra- ham, Mary Kay Kehrle, Pat Bell, and Marilyn Jost were kept busy by their library duties. Representing our home room on the Vincentian staff were Marie Klocker and Marilyn Abraham. Marie, along with another classmate, Won the I Speak for Democracy contest at St. Vincent. Like all Juniors we plan to make next year the best one of all. -107- uniors 7 LAST IN TIIE ALPHABET BUT FIRST IN sPIR1T,' was the motto of 105, the only mixed junior class. Sur- names ranged from P to Z, with the exception of Regis Appledorn and Patty Bean, two newcomers to the junior ranks. We looked forward eagerly to the choice of sweaters, jackets, and the big decision - our class rings. We met our deadlines in paying our mission dues, pledged our full support to the United Fund Campaign, and gave a handsome patron fee to the yearbook. Our class president, Jim Sturmi, walked away with top place scholastically in the jun- ior class. Bernadette Sis Slaven deserved our vote as the up-and-coming artist. Throughout the year, Rita Tersigni continued writing fine articles for the Vincentian. A perky little majorette, Scottie Scott, and a fine alto-singer, Audrey Seib, gave our class a variety of talent. Chuck Pfeil and Bill Starinki proved their brawn and brains on the football field. With these accomplishments behind us, wc go forward. HOME ROOM 105 Bottom Row: M. Shields, P. Bean, M. Stimler, A. Scott, B. Sullivan, G. Schafer, Y. Spallino, D. Wright, M. Reiter. Row 2: M.

As ofiicers their job is to plan and organize class activities. The jun- iors presented the Christa mas formal and the Prom in Hne style While the sophomores did a terrific job on the Halloween Dance. As true leaders, the officers not only organ- ized but also gave a great deal of time and energy to 1ff'f'NQ make the dances success- ful. Before the dances, they were seen painting decorations and doing other Work. They led their classes through the steps to a proiitable year. -109-- op omores Find . . . Home Room 201 Bottom Row: M.
