Perseverance The In the fall of 1930 the freshmen class which entered the high school was destined by the stars in the heavens to write history . upon the portals of this school of knowledge. We have been a class that has been represented in every activity the school pro- vides in its curriculum. Beginning with our freshmen year we came out second in the Wendelette subscription campaign. Along came the Annual Oratorical Contest in which one of the present juniors was sent to Lima to represent St. Vilendelin in the Diocesan Contest held there. This was Brian Kane. ln the and Joseph spelling contest Joseph Skonecki. Joseph Dell Westhoven were represented in the freshmen class. In the Girls Oratorical Contest. Ardella Foos. Mary Barrett and Dolores Haaser represented us. Then came the second year, and we were really considered students. We went in strong for every contest and activity that came our way.

We went through our junior year with the same pep and vim that enabled us to carry on so far.

Richard and that he is getting along great. Next morning we again take the train to Clevelan l. Ah. here is where l am destined to meet many of my school day friends, The first morning in Cleveland profited me nothing. but in the afternoon. going down Euclid Avenue. l saw amid shin- ing lights that two of my claszmates had chosen the stage as their career.

Richard Scharf and Charles Thiry are partners in a sporting goods company. one of the largest in the United States. Dale Smith with Harold Kelbley and Carl Laliountain. are running a great newspaper press in Cleveland. All of this news l acquired by just strolling along Euclid Avenue, ln the evening l went to the Opera House and the star vio- linist of the evening was Richard Puchta, Ohf Vlfhat a great surprise it was when l found that Agnes Lichtle. Anna Mae Nye. and Regina Brant were cooperating in running a large restaurant. l,istening in on the radio after l had returned to my room l heard it broadcasted that a great show was coming to Cleve- land. ln it were many stars from Hollywood and Broadway. so I decided to see it. lmagine my astonishment when on the stage as the curtain went up were Dolores Haaser.
